QNCINNATL 



The Market. 



Business during Thanksgiving week 

 was satisfactory from almost every point 

 of view. The total sales footed up to 

 last year, and in a few instances exceeded 

 it. Of course, we hear of those who 

 are kicking, but we have plenty to be 

 thankful for. Thanksgiving trade has 

 its peculiarities. Monday and Tuesday 

 brought forth little demand and Wednes- 

 day saw great quantities of stock be- 

 ing received by the commission houses. 

 It looked as if there would be a big 

 glut. The retail stores had bought lit- 

 tle and were careful what they bought. 

 But of a sudden, orders began to come 

 in, and business took on a holiday rush. 

 This kept up till Thursday noon, when 

 virtually all of the good, salable stock 

 had been sold at good prices. Yel- 

 low mums went like hot cakes. 



There has been a big let-up in mums 

 since Thanksgiving. It would appear 

 that the market was cleared out of them 

 in a day. Medium sizes are scarce and 

 there are practically no large ones. 



Carnations continue scarce and there 

 is little prospect for a crop of them 

 before the holidays. Eoses are in good 

 supply and of good quality. Now that 

 the mums are virtually out of the way, 

 roses ought to begin to sell better and 

 the price ought to rise to something 

 near what it ought to be. A strong 

 inclination to boost prices a little can 

 be felt now. 



Various Notes. 



"With the change of political power in 

 the city government January 1, there 

 may probably be a change in the head 

 of the park department. The present 

 superintendent, J. W. Rodgers, is in 

 hopes of retaining his position. Besides 

 him, B. P. Critchell, who was formerly 

 park superintendent, and David Knott, 

 who at present is in charge of the city 

 greenhouses at Eden park, are possibil- 

 ities. It looks as if political pull will

 fact that the park department of any
