The Weekly Florists' Review* 



September 17, 1908. 



CLEVELAND. 



The Market. 



Trade last week was quiet, there being 

 no special call for any kind of stock. 

 Asters, of course, are on hand by the car- 

 load, but there is sale for only a part 

 of those sent in. 



Roses are improving; the quality of 

 stock received is good for this time of 

 the year, Kaiserin is still in the lead 

 and coming in heavily. 



Carnations are of the best quality 

 seen here in years, for so early, but 

 the demand is not what it should be for 

 such good stock. Gladioli have had 

 their day and the demand for them is 

 unsteady at present. Some dahlias are 

 to be seen, but it is too warm for good 

 stock of these yet. 



Various Notes. 



Harry Jones, of the J, M. Gasser 

 Co., spent an enjoyable day at Portage 

 Lakes last week, visiting friends. 



The James Eadie Co. has several houses 

 of chrysanthemums that are in fine shape. 

 A house of early planted carnations is 

 also looking well. 



Guy Bate and T. R. Williams are en- 

 joying a lake trip to Duluth on one of the 

 large freight boats. 



J. Kirchner had some large funeral 

 orders last week, buying quantities of 

 stock. 



Mr. Albright, formerly with C. M. 

 Wagner, and Mr. Smith, of the same 

 place, will open a retail store on Erie 

 street, opposite the Rose building, about 

 September 21. 



Smith & Fetters have been showing 

 some beautiful and attractive windows 

 of late. 



Visitors: Henry Heepe, Akron, O.; Mr. 

 Werner, Painesville, O. B.
