The Weekly Florists' Review* 



June 28, 1906. 



CINONNATL 



The Market 



Business for the last week has been 

 fine. Every one is well satisfied with 

 the way it has been going, and the 

 month of June will be a good one this 

 year. The demand is general and for 

 all kinds of stock. As a consequence, 

 the prices of all grades have been ad- 

 vancing until now they are as high as 

 one ever sees them at this season of the 

 year. Everything points to a continua- 

 tion of the good run for the balance of 

 this month at least, as many advance 

 orders have been booked. 



The supply of stock is but medium, 

 and perhaps this is one reason for the 

 good demand. There is just about 

 enough to fill all orders. This leaves the 

 wholesale market well cleared out every 

 evening and in good condition to keep 

 up prices the next day. 



Owing to good weather, both roses 

 and carnations have improved in quality. 

 American Beauties are in good demand, 

 and they also have improved greatly. 

 The best grade readily brings $3 per 

 dozen. Sweet peas continue in good de- 

 mand and more of the better varieties 

 could be disposed of to advantage. 

 Lilies of all kinds are selling well, with 

 but few on the market. Gladioli are 

 Belling first-class. Green goods are fair- 

 ly plentiful and there are plenty of good 

 eastern ferns. 



Various Notes. 



A meeting of the picnic committee 

 was held June 16, and it was decided 

 to hold the florists' annual outing on 

 Thursday, July 19, at Norwood Inn park, 

 Oakley, O. There will be music and 

 dancing, bowling for both ladies and 

 gentlemen, also a ball game. There will 

 probably be running races and other 

 sports. This is to be an old-fashioned 

 basket picnic, and every one is expected 

 to bring a well filled basket. Ben George 

 was appointed to look after printing 

 and music, George Murphy to look after 

 the baseball. Tom Jackson has charge 

 of the quoits and Henry Schwarz the 

 bowling. 



The committee in charge of the Cin- 

 cinnati delegation to the S. A. F. con- 

 vention has been busily engaged in look- 

 ing up rates and is rapidly getting 

 things into shape. Every one seems to 

 be so enthusiastic on the subject that 

 there ought to be at least 100 in the 

 party. As soon as the committee de- 

 cides which way we will go, every florist 

 in this city and vicinity will be notified 

 of all particulars. Those out-of-town 

 florists who care to join the Cincinnati 

 delegation can obtain full information 

 by addressing C. J. Ohmer, 113 East 

 Third street, Cincinnati. We will be 

 glad to have all who can possibly do so 

 go with us.

Bead what our cuetomers say about them; 



South Bend, Ind., April 4, W04. 

 "Superior to any Hot Water Boiler we have 

 ever used. You certainly have placed the right 

 name to your Boilers; no effort at all to keep 

 the temperature at desired points when zero 

 weather comes. Night after night the past se- 

 vere winter weather gave your Boiler a good test. 

 We are more than pleased with the Superior 

 Boiler." Yours truly, Treanor & Rettlc.
