The Weekly Florists' Review. 



Februaby 13, 1908. 



CINCINNATL 



The Market 



All things considered, business has 

 been good during the last week. The 

 demand has been lively and the supply of 

 stock has greatly increased, so that all 

 orders could be filled in full. The cold 

 snap is a thing of the past and we are 

 having weather more to our liking. The 

 retail business continues to be mostly 

 funeral work. There have been many 

 deaths among persons of prominence and 

 so the demand for this class of work 

 has been greatly above normal. Tran- 

 sient trade has been light and the de- 

 mand for stock for weddings and re- 

 ceptions is not up to standard. 



Roses continue coming just abQut as 

 last reported. There has been a little 

 increase in red, outside of Beauty, and 

 the quality is good. A good price is 

 obtained for them also. Brides are in 

 heavy demand and more could be used 

 to advantage. Carnations are coming 

 more heavily nearly every day. The 

 bright sun has been doing the work. 

 This increase has forced the price down 

 a little, though the demand continues 

 good. It looks now as if the carnation 

 is going to have its inning for some 

 time to come. Growers report thousands 

 of blooms in sight and coming fast. It 

 is to be hoped that a good part of this 

 cut will be harvested, at least before 

 Lent, and it would appear that such will 

 be the case. 



Bulbous flowers are in good supply and 

 are selling well at quoted prices. Val- 

 ley is having an especially good run. 

 Lilies, both Harrisii and callas, are scarce 

 and not equal to the demand. Conse- 

 quently they bring good prices. 



Violets are in good supply and sell 

 fairly well. As is usually the case, the 

 long-stemmed single ones bring the best 

 prices. Some fine double ones from New- 

 York sell well. 



Various Notes. 



On February 8 occurred the death of 

 Mrs. Bright, mother of Mrs. R. A. Betz. 

 The funeral took place February 11. 



L. F. Benson has been drawn on a 

 jury for a two weeks' term. He says 

 that he is glad of it, as things have 

 been a little quiet with him. 



A new firm has started up in this 

 city to manufacture florists' wire de- 

 signs, has adopted the name of Florists' 

 Wire Design Co., and is located at 113 

 and 114 East Third street. The firm is 

 laying plans to keep a large stock on 

 hand at all times, so as to be able to 

 fill orders quickly. The factory is in 

 charge of one of the best wire workers 

 in the country and the work turned out 

 will be sure to give satisfaction. 



Charles Reimers stopped off at this 

 city February 8. He was on his way 

 to his home city, Louisville, Ky., where 

 he was formerly engaged in the flower 

 business. He came all the way from 

 Los Angeles, Cal., where he has been 

 living for several years. He said he 

 was homesick to see the old town, so 

 just had to come back for a visit. 



S. Wertheimer, New York, was a 

 visitor. C. J. Ohmer. 



Beatrice, Neb. — The Dole Floral Co. 

 will put up a palm house, 35x100, in 

 the spring.
