The Florists' Review 



August 26, 1915. 



CLEVELAND. 



The Market. 



The quality of the stock now coming 

 in is above the average for this season 

 of the year. Boses, carnations, lilies, 

 valley and greens are coming from the 

 local growers. Outside flowers, such as 

 dahlias, gladioli, asters, sweet peas and 

 snapdragons, are coming in large quan- 

 tities. Business is fair. Several large 

 funerals last week helped to keep the 

 market cleaned up. 



Various Notes. 



Herbert Bate and his family are 

 spending a few weeks at their cottage 

 -at Portage lake. Fishing there is good. 



Local growers have almost finished 

 .their carnation plai^ting. The plants 

 have made wonderful growth in the 

 field this season. The average quality 

 of the plants is ahead of other years. 



Herman Knoble and Frank Friedley 

 made a trip to Indianapolis and Bieh- 

 mond last week. A. Baur and Joseph 

 Hill, ofiicerii of the American Carna- 

 tion Society, promised the society's 

 support for our fall show. The execu- 

 tive committee of the Carnation Society 

 will hold a meeting at Cleveland during 

 the time of the. show. Irwin Berter- 

 mann, presideni of the F. T. D., says 

 the organization will not only hold a 

 meeting during the progress of the 

 Cleveland show, but will put up an ex- 

 hibit. George and Homer Wiegand 

 were also seen. They say they are go- 

 ing to attend the show and predict that 

 a carload of Indianapolis florists will 

 be on hand when the show opens. 



At Bichmond, the greenhouses of the 

 E. G. Hill Co. and Fred Lemon were 

 found in excellent shape. The chrysan- 

 themums of the E. G. Hill Co. are in 

 first-class condition. Joseph Hill 

 pointed out an entire house devoted to 

 chrysanthemums for exhibition at the 

 Cleveland show. Mr. and Mrs. Charles 

 Critchell, of Cincinnati, motored into 

 Richmond while the visitors were there 

 and Mt. Critchell, who is keen on bowl- 

 ing, suggested that a bowling tourna- 

 ment be hel^ during the Cleveland 

 show. This is a good suggestion and 

 will be taken up at once with the en- 

 tertainment committee. P. A. F.
