The Florists' Review 



April 8, 191S. 



CINCINNATI. 



The Market. 



The demand for stock for Easter -was 

 quite good. Almost everything of any 

 quality at all cleaned up readily. 

 Prices were good and held up until the 

 business was almost over, when they 

 dropped on a few lines that were still 

 on hand. Shipping business was ex- 

 cellent. 



Boses were in pretty good supply and, 

 with the exception of choice American 

 Beauties, sold readily, Carnations had 

 a fine market. Easter lilies were plenti- 

 ful, and it was not until Sunday morn- 

 ing that all of them were cleaned up. 

 Callas sold well. Tulips, jonquils and 

 daffodils moved readily. Stock was 

 generally of a high quality. Valley 

 enjoyed an active market, while orchids 

 did not do so well. They seemed to be 

 a little too high-priced for the Easter 

 demand. Sweet peas were in good sup- 

 ply and sold well. Some fine snap- 

 dragons were offered, but they had a 

 rather slow market. "What violets there 

 were sold readily. 



Vanous Notes. 



The regular meeting of the Cincin- 

 nati Florists' Society will be held 

 Monday evening, -April 12. 



L. H. Kyrk reports a quite satis- 

 factory Easter business. 



C. E. Critchell says this Easter was 

 the best he has ever had. Eobert Buck 

 & Co., Washington C. H., O., have been 

 sending him some fine snapdragons. 



E. G. Gillett had no trouble in clean- 

 ing up on his large receipts of flowers 

 for Easter, although he admits he was 

 kept stepping pretty lively while the 

 rush lasted. 



Charles Weltz, of Wilmington, O., was 

 a recent visitor. C. H. H. 



NEW OKIiEANS, LA. 



Club Meeting. 



At a special meeting of the New Or- 

 leans Horticultural Society, at the As- 

 sociation of Commerce hall Monday 

 evening, March 29, it was decided to 

 hold a spring flower show in Lafayette 

 square. May 6 to 9. Opinion was di- 

 vided as to the advisability of holding 

 a show at that time, some maintaining 

 that more time should be given so as to 

 insure a better exhibition, perhaps next 

 fall. 



Several members present offered to 

 pledge certain amounts towards guaran- 

 teeing expenses. C. W. Eichling sug- 

 gested that the society advance $250, 

 receiving a first mortgage on the gate 

 receipts. A framework, to be covered 

 hj tarpaulins, will be erected over the 

 platform and seats in the square. A 

 10-cent admission charge is suggested 

 as adequate to meet expenses. Profits 

 will be distributed among the women's 

 civic leagues to aid their work of beau- 

 tifying the city.
