plentiful. Eeceipts of carnations and 

 Easter lilies are heavy. Lily of the val- 

 ley experiences a fair market. Orchids 

 are moving rather slowly. Other oflFer- 

 ings include rubrums, dahlias, cosmos 

 and single violets. The supply of greens 

 is large enough to take care of all pres- 

 ent needs. 



Various Notes. 



Hardesty & Co. have had splendid 

 window displays of choice chrysanthe- 

 mums. 



C. E. Critchell has enjoyed a good 

 call for bronze galax. 



The Cincinnati Cut Flower Exchange 

 has been finding an excellent market for 

 pompons. 



Among the trade visitors last week 

 were A. Miller, of Chicago; George 

 Lampert, of the Lampert Floral Co., 

 Xenia, O.; H. Ehrhardt, of Sidney, O., 

 and Frank Farney, representing the M. 

 Rice Co., Philadelphia. C. H. H.

The Market. 



Market conditions have improved con- 

 siderably, although there still is a short-^ 

 age of stock. Galax and magnolia' 

 leaves are used to help fill the orders 

 when cut flowers are low. It is ex- 

 pected that there will be plenty of 

 stock of all kinds next week, as mums 

 will then be in big supply. Boses are 

 scarce and high in price. Beauties are 

 of excellent quality and the supply 

 equals the demand. Carnations are im-- 

 proving in quality. Chrysanthemums 

 are more plentiful and some excellent 

 stock can be seen on the market. The 

 midseason varieties, such as Chieftain, 

 Wm. Turner and others, have arrived. 

 Easter lilies and valley always have a 

 steady demand. 



Various Notes. 



Arthur Newell had a good run on fu- 

 neral work last wqek. He reports busi- 

 ness good in all lines, especially for hos- 

 pitals. 



The W. L. Rock Flower Co. is cut- 

 ting a large quantity of carnations and 

 chrysanthemums. At the retail store 

 it is said basket work is picking up at 

 a lively gait. 



A. F. Barbe says it is too warm for 

 a lar|;e cemetery. busines8,-as everybody
