The Market 



With the beginning of July summer 

 has begun in earnest. While there is a 

 little business doing all of the time, it is 

 just about enough to keep the boys 

 awake. Funeral work is our only chance 

 and there is not much of that. The 

 weather is hot, to say the least, and so 

 the quality of the stock that is to be 

 had is not the best. Beauties are hold- 

 ing out better than any other of the 

 indoor-grown flowers, and they are noth- 

 ing to speak of; still they are selling 

 well and at fairly good prices. Other 

 roses are not doing quite so well, but 

 the quality is so poor in most cases that 

 it is not to be expected. White roses do 

 best, and some pretty good ones are to 

 be . seen now and then. Red roses are 

 about out of the market. Some fine 

 sweet peas from the field are coming in 

 now and they sell out well. White and 

 lavender have the call. Gladioli are not 

 very plentiful as yet. More could be 

 disposed of to advantage. This market 

 is now pretty well supplied with the 

 usual run of outdoor flowers for funeral 

 work. 



Various Notes. 



While the wholesale and retail florists 

 are putting their business into shape to 

 take their vacations, the growers are 

 hard at work changing the soil in their 

 houses and replanting. This is the hard- 

 est season of the year for them, and with 

 the hot weather we are having now the 

 job is pretty trying. Many of the boys 

 already have their carnations planted, 

 that is, those that were grown in pots, 

 and they are doing first-class. Owing to 

 the many rains that we have been having 

 carnations in the field are doing fine 

 this year, and with a continuation of the 

 rains the plants will be good. 



Tickets are out for the florists' outing, 

 and arrangements are completed for the 

 program, which if carried out as it is 

 intended will provide a fine time for all. 

 Ben George is hustling to get everything 

 into shape and now all that is needed 

 to make our outing a success is a good 

 day. The chances are that we will have 

 that. 



It is probable that the committee will 

 select the C. H. & D. E. R. as the official 

 road to the S. A. F. convention at Day- 

 ton. The committee is not quite ready 

 to maKe the announcement as yet, but 

 everything will be shaped out this week. 

 Many inquiries are being received by 

 the committee from persons wishing to 

 join the Cincinnati delegation. As soon 

 as definite arrangements are made all of 

 these will be notified of all particulars. 

 An invitation is extended to all who can
