COLUMBUS, O. 



The Market. 



Trade is quiet here, with a good 

 quantity of stock coming in. Some 

 excellent Beauties are to be seen, but 

 the demand for them is light. Other 

 roses are fine, including Kaiserin, 

 Ophelia, Bulgarie, Richmond, etc., and 

 the supply is fully equal to the de- 

 mand. Carnations look promising and 

 it will not be long until we shall be re- 

 ceiving some fair cuts from the early 

 planting. Asters are plentiful, though 

 tiiost of the florists' crops are failures 

 and we are depending mostly on the 

 folks out in the country, a number of 

 whom are sending in fine stock. If all 

 the asters that were planted had done 

 well, this community would have been 

 swamped with them. Gladioli are com- 

 ing in rather slowly, but are suflicient 

 to meet all demands. Valley is not 

 plentiful, but the demand is not heavy. 

 Of lilies there are plenty to go the 

 rounds. The state fair this week is 

 creating a good demand for decorative 

 plants for various exhibits. 



Vajlous Notes. 



Vacation times are about' 'over and 

 nearly all the members of the craft are 

 back on the job again, ready for the 

 expected prosperity. 



Sherman Stephens was in a serious 

 condition on Saturday, August 21, and 

 his family were called to the hospital, 

 as they were afraid he would not be 

 able to pull through, but he is reported 

 to be somewhat improved and his 

 friends are hopeful. J* M.

The market is "well supplied with 



fladioli and asters, the latter being of 

 ne quality, which makes them sell 

 readily.

 in nineteen years was recorded Au- 

 gust 26. The temperature dropped to 

 42 degrees. 



The funeral services of Mrs. Chas.

 nent in all musical organizations of the 

 country, was held August 26. This fu- 

 neral kept the florists busy for a couple 

 of days.
