while they are working they seem active 

 and alert. I think if we had a little 

 more of the system florists' help would 

 not be 80 scarce as it has been of late. 



There has been the usual crop of Oc- 

 tober weddings, mostly of moderate di- 

 mensions, still enough to keep the artists 

 of several firms busy. Eeal artists are 

 Mr. Slattery and Mr. Beyer, of W. J. 

 Palmer & Son; Mr, Snell, of S. A. An- 

 derson 's ; Boland Cloudsley, of the "Wm. 

 Scott Co., and James Higgins, who has 

 the pleasure to do the fine work for Miss 

 Bachel Bebstock. There may be others 

 worthy the name of artist, but they are 

 modest and don't let us know. W. S. 



ONCINNATL 



ThcMaAct 



Business last week waa a duplicate of 

 the week before. That is, it started out 

 fine Monday and Tuesday, but on 

 Wednesday and Thursday the demand 

 seemed to die out, and there was a lot 

 of stock left over after the morning's 

 business was concluded. On Friday and 

 Saturday there was a lively demand, and 

 by Saturday night everything was 



cleaned up at good prices. At present 

 there ia a fairly active demand, but the 

 supply of stock is so short that there is 

 not enough to fill all orders. Outside of 

 a few mums there is nothing to be seen. 

 Mums are arriving in fine shape, and 

 some of the mid-season big blooms are 

 seen. These bring good prices, and sell 

 on sight. Small mums that can be used 

 for funeral work are in good demand, 

 and there are not enough to fill the de- 

 mand. The heavy demand for this grade 

 is caused largely by the shortage of car- 

 nations. They don't seem to be bloom- 

 ing at all. While there are a few com- 

 ing into this market every day, they can 

 scarcely be taken into account, when one 

 considers what we ought to be getting 

 at this season of the year. It is hoped 

 that they will redeem themselves during 

 the winter months, when as a rule they 

 are always so scarce. 



Boses have been doing well, and with 

 the exception of American Beauties 

 there is enough to take good care of the 

 demand. American Beauties have been a 

 little erratic, and at present they are 

 scarce. The price has held up well, not- 

 withstanding that mums usually cause 

 them to drop a little. 



Violets are in good demand, with few 

 to fill orders. There has been a good 

 deal of call for white violets this year 

 and no supply. As a rule white violets 

 are a dead article on this market. Baby 

 primrose and snapdragon are beginning 

 to come in and sell well. There has been 

 a good demand for valley; at times 

 orders could not be taken care of. Smi- 

 lax and asparagus sell well and ferns 

 are doing nicely. 



Various Notes. 



Frank Dellar, who has recently pur- 

 chased a tract of land on West Price 

 Hill, is erecting a greenhouse, 20x100 

 feet. This is the start of what in time 

 will be a good-sized place. Carnations 

 will be grown, and as Mr. Dellar has had 

 experience with B. Witterstaetter and 

 Wm. Murphy for many years, it is ex- 

 pected that he will produce some fine 

 stock. 



Wm. Murphy is constructing three 

 houses 200 feet long in which to grow 

 roses. 



Several of the craft are on the sick 

 list, among them being George Murphy 

 and Henry Konzelman, both of whom are 

 afflicted with typhoid fever. As the dis-
