 place and from other expert growers at 

 Madison.

 from his severe illness and this week 

 returns to the city, with his family, from

 covers 25,000 square feet of space. Its 

 two entrances, on Barclay street and 

 Park place, make it most convenient,

Business is moving along in a way that 

 is pleasing to all. The demand for 

 flowers of all kinds is good and there 

 is a fair supply. The call fo» 

 outdoor flowers is brisk and asters es- 

 pecially have a steady call. Gk>od white 

 and purple sell at sight and at fine 

 prices. Dahlias also are going well and 

 bringing good prices. Carnationa are 

 just about equal to the demand and 

 more could be used to good advantage. 

 Some nice Enchantress sell fast. As 

 is usual at this time of the year, white 

 flowers sell best, but red ones have an 

 unusually heavy call. Mums are not 

 yet seen regularly on the market, but by 

 October 10 they should be in regular 

 supply. Polly Rose and Glory of Pa- 

 cific will be the first to be had in quan- 

 tity and they will sell from $2 to $3 

 per dozen. With the cool weather we 

 now are having, mums will be weleonae 

 and ought to sell fast. 



Various Notes. 



Saturday, October 13, will be the 

 next regular meeting of the Cincinnati 

 Florists' Society and a well attended 

 meeting is expected. The flower shows 

 usually given by the society will be 

 talked over and it will be dedded 

 whether these shows shall be continued 

 on the same lines that they have heen 

 in the past.
