CINCINNATI, O. 



- :f The Market. 



Stock of all kinds is plentiful and, 

 judging from present reports, will con- 

 tinue so until Easter. Business is fair, 

 but the demand is not quite strong 

 enough to take up all receipts. Ship- 

 ping business continues good. 



The general quality of the roses of- 

 fered is of the highest order. All of 

 the pink ones have a good color. Amer- 

 ican Beauty offerings are sufficient for 

 present needs. Carnations are coming 

 in much more heavily and prices on all 

 but white have taken a decided tumble. 

 Lilies are plentiful and sell at reason- 

 able prices. Bulbous stock meets with 

 an indifferent market. Valley is selling 

 slowly. Sweet peas are good, but do 

 not bring high prices. The supply of 

 greens is fully adequate for immediate 

 needs. Green sheet moss is meeting 

 with a strong call. 



Various Notes. 



G. E. Critchell reports a strong call 

 for green sheet moss. 



Visitors include Anton C. Zvolanek, 

 Lompoc, Cal.; E. J. Fancourt, repre- 

 senting S. S. Pennock-Meehan Co.,

 senting Wertheimer Bros., New York, 

 and Julius Dilloff, representing Schloss 

 Bros., New York. C. H. H. 



Mendham, N. J. — Ernest Combs is 

 making preparations for erecting a 

 greenhouse on his truck farm on the 

 Mt. Freedom road. The building will 

 be used principally for growing carna- 

 tions and other marketable plants. 



Hartford City, Ind. — Revivals are ap- 

 parently good things for florists. At 

 any rate, the Bob Jones tabernacle 

 meetings here have been so. The mem- 

 bers of the organizations, associations 

 and delegations which attend the meet- 

 ings as a body wear carnations.

Mr. Stahelin, of Detroit, 

 Says Greenhouse Watering by 

 Skinner System Can Be Done 



at Extremely Low Cost 



Just read this letter received from him February 18 of this year : 



"I have had the Skinner System In my greenhouse for a 

 number of years. Every once in a while I find it of the great- 

 est convenience in giving my crops a good, heavy watering 

 In the form of a fine spray. 



"In spite of the fact that I do not use the System for 

 daily watering, I find its occasional use so valuable that its 

 cost is a small item compared with the results that it malies 

 possible. 



"A. J. Stahelin. 

 •'P. S. The watering is done at extremely low cost." 



A Try Out Try

 down your house becomes such
