The Florists^ Review 



OCTOBEB 21, 1918. 



OmOINNATI. 



The Market. 



Business is good. The supply of 

 stock is such as to take care of present 

 needs and at the same time to keep the 

 market in a firm condition. Prices are 

 fair for both the grower and the buyer. 

 Shipping is heavy. 



Boses are in good, supply and are 

 meeting with an active demand. The 

 same is true of carnations. Easter 

 lilies are plentiful and have been find- 

 ing a good market. Receipts of rubrum 

 lilies are not so large as heretofore. 

 Offerings in chrysanthemums are large 

 and include many excellent blooms of 

 white, yellow and pink varieties. iLilies 

 of the valley clean up readily. The 

 cut of orchids is sufficient for present 

 meeds. Both cosmos and dahlias are 

 still in the market. 



Various Notes. 



E. G. Gillett attended the Ohio state 

 conclave of the Knights Templar at 

 Toledo last week. He also visited De- 

 troit and other northern points on busi- 

 ness. Mr. Gillett was impressed with 

 the window decorations for the con- 

 clave and with the general good qual- 

 ity of the flowers. 



Louis H. Kyrk left October 18 on a 

 two weeks' business tour. 



B. C. Bertsch, of Qreensburg, Ind., 

 has been sending some excellent yellow 

 mums to the St. ILouis market. 



Esh Bros, have opened a retail flower 

 store at 1227 Vine street. It is the 

 tenth retail store on "Vine street^ 



Becent visitors were Mr. and Mrs. 

 C. Edward Buch, Richmond, Ind.; J. N. 

 Crismore, Chicago; John T. Nicks, 

 Cleveland, and James P. Keller, Lex- 

 ington, Ky. C. H. H. 



BENTON HARBOR, MICH. 



The recent Benton Harbor Fruit Fes- 

 tival, held October 6 to 9, brought con- 

 siderable business to the florists. 



The Central Seed & Bulb Co. ex- 

 hibited forty-four varieties of dahlias, 

 thirteen of which were Thompson's 

 new seedlings. They showed eight va- 

 rieties of gladioli and a good display 

 of ferns, palms and cut flowers. 



Thomas Heaven made a fine display 

 of ferns. The stock in his greenhouses 

 is looking well, especially his adiantum. 



Bobert A. Smythe has his large house 

 newly planted to carnations and will 

 be in the market soon with some fine 

 stock. 



Bobert A. Smythe was the main 

 spoke in the wheel in getting up the 

 premium list. He made a good job 

 of it.
