DAYTON. OHIO. 



Condition of Business. 



Business throughout the month of Au- 

 jjuat was, in general, good, with a some- 

 what generous amount of funeral work, 

 so our local retail dealers are offering 

 no complaint. The wholesaler has found 

 that demand for stock out of town is 

 greater than the demand at home. First- 

 class stock seems to sell more readily 

 than the cheaper grades. Long-stemmed 

 Brides and Maids are wholesaling at $5 

 per hundred. 



All of the new stock is showing up 

 well, and there is already a good supply 

 of new carnations on the market. Asters 

 still continue to be plentiful, while Beau- 

 ties from young plants are fine, in both 

 color and foliage. 



Outdoor stock did not amount to a 

 great deal this season, as the weather 

 has been so hot and dry that everything 

 looks dried up and baked. We can 

 truthfully say that during the month of 

 August we did not have a good rain. 



Various Notes. 



All of our delegates to the S. A. F. 

 convention have returned and all say they 

 had a grand time throughout their visit, 

 to the falls and other points. We all 

 rejoice over the fact that our Cincin- 

 nati brethren were so fortunate as to 

 obtain the convention for 1909. 



Mr. and Mrs. Cook and daughter, 

 Mabel, of New Orleans, La., came on 

 to Dayton from the convention with Mrs. 

 B. Hendrichs, and were her guests during 

 last week. They left August 31, for 

 a week's visit to Chicago, after which 

 they will again call at Dayton, 



George Collins, manager for Peter 

 Reinberg, of Chicago, was the guest of 

 George Bartholomew for a few days last 

 week. While in the city, Mr. Collins 

 visited several of the other florists and 

 also Mr. Hearlin, of the National Mili- 

 tary Home. On his way home Mr. Col- 

 lins stopped at Newcastle, Ind., and 

 visited the greenhouses there. 



Mrs. E. Young spent a few days in 

 Toledo, O., last week. 



The Miami Floral Co. has just had a 

 new 8-inch well drilled, fifty feet in 

 depth. Their greenhouses are in fine 

 condition and prospects are most prom- 

 ising for the coming season. 



Alice Le Baron and Florence Culver, 

 who for two weeks were the guests of 

 Ruby Bartholomew, returned August 27 

 to their home in Chicago.

PORT HURON, MICH. 



Mathias Ullenbruch 's place, which was 

 destroyed by a tornado June 8, is being 

 rapidly restored. The four houses under 

 construction will cover a space of about 

 l.'iOxlSO feet, with cement walls and 

 cedar lumber. 



Mr. Ullenbruch expects to begin plant- 

 ing roses and carnations this week. His 

 stock looks well, considering the incon- 

 venience in caring for it. B.
