The Market 



Owing to Jewish New Year's, which 

 always brings out a good demand for 

 flowers, and also to several good deco- 

 rations, the last week was a busy one, 

 and all enjoyed a good business. The 

 demand for flowers of all grades was 

 the best we have had this year. Good 

 prices prevailed, too. Beauties especially 

 reaching the high-water mark for this 

 year. 



We are having ideal fall weather, 

 which includes those cool, crisp nights 

 which always have such a good effect 

 upon all kinds of greenhouse stock. The 

 cuts from all of the growers in these 

 parts are showing the benefits of this 

 weather, and the general improvement 

 will gradually be followed by a rise in 

 the price. What is most needed now to 

 give a tone to the market is a good, 

 heavy frost. With the outdoor flowers 

 out of the way, the business would im- 

 mediately take a brace. 



This market is now supplied with all 

 the staple varieties of flowers. Carna- 

 tions, which as yet are scarcely up to 

 standard, are improving rapidly, and 

 within a couple of weeks we will have 

 some good stock. Boses, too, are begin- 



ning to show signs of winter quality. 

 Beauties are especially good. The first 

 mums were received September 19, and 

 outside of being a little soft, they were 

 good and sold readilv. They were grown 

 by the H. Weber & Sons Co., of Oak- 

 land, Md. It will not be long till the 

 mum will be with us in force and will 

 really mark the opening of the fall 

 business. Outdoor stock such as asters, 

 gladioli, tuberoses, dahlias and cosmos 

 are with us and sell fairly well. Smilax 

 has been a little scarce but there has 

 been plenty of asparagus, ferns, etc. 



Variott* Notes. 



The last flower show held during the 

 fall festival took place September 20. 

 As announced in my notes of last week, 

 W. K. Partridge was given a contract 

 to make the exhibit. He put up an ex- 

 hibition on similar lines to the one he 

 showed two weeks, before, and again it 

 drew forth the admiration of the thou- 

 sands of people. The attendance was 

 much larger than .at the first show, as 

 the exhibit was better advertised, and 

 everyone seemed greatly pleased with 

 what he saw. Orchids, American Beau- 

 ties, and mums were used in profusion. 



A sneak-thief tapped the till in J. 

 'Malley 's flower store and made away 

 with about $15. He did not get far 

 before he was caught; the money was 

 found on him. 



H. Schlachter has just about com- 

 pleted the erection of two greenhouses, 

 18x135 feet at St. Bernard, O. He in- 

 tends doing a general retail business. 



C, J. Ohmer. , 



MOBILE, ALA. 



Business rapidly is picking up after 

 a long and rather dull summer. There 

 is little cut flower business doing here 

 in the heated term, but the busy seasons 

 rapidly are growing in volume of busi- 

 ness and somewhat in length of the 

 season. 



The recent opening of the Cawthorn 

 hotel brought considerable business to 

 the local florists, not only in decorations 

 for the hotel, but in floral tributes sent 

 by those interested. C. Bavier & Sons 

 had an order from the Mobile Trans- 

 fer Co., for whom they made a wreath 

 standing four feet Wgh without the 

 easel. The material was roses, dahlias, 

 asters, and asparagus, and the piece at- 

 tracted much attention at the opening.
