CLEVELAND. 



The Market 



The arrival of warm weather brought 

 an increase in stock of all kinds. Prices 

 weakened somewhat, but there was no 

 great overstock. Boses have shown a 

 marked improvement of late, and are 

 now of good quality as well as quantity. 

 Carnations are of a better grade than 

 ever before seen here at this time of 

 the year. Mums are plentiful and good, 

 at from 6 cents to 20 cents. Double 

 violets are received daily and are mov- 

 ing well. Some extra fine valley is to 

 be had at 3 cents and 4 cents. Greens 

 of all kinds are plentiful and sell well, 

 except smilax, which is moving slowly. 



Various Notes. 



A visit to John Kirchner found every- 

 thing in fine shape. All hands were busy 

 with funeral work, among which was a 

 pillow of red and white Kaiserin roses, 

 • which was fine. 



F. W. Zeichman has repaired and 

 painted his whole plant and the place is 

 in better shape than it has been for some 

 time. The stock is also looking well. 



Charles Bartells, of North Olmsted, is 

 sending in a fine cut of carnations at 

 present. 



The F. E. Williams Co. is cutting 

 large quantities of White Enchantress 

 and Beacon carnations, which are picked 

 up at sight. 



Mr. Bock has bought the retail busi- 

 ness of Henry Eickhoff and will carry 

 on the trade as done by the former 

 owner. B. 



RocKFOBD, III. — Henry Mueller, for- 

 merly of Cinciniiati, O., has purchased 

 H. S. Morton's greenhouses, on Chapin 

 pjace, and will continue the business 

 tUere. 



, Lowell, Mass. — S\^anson & Dellgren 

 have made thorough repairs in their 

 greenhouses and have erected »o^b addi- 

 tional benches. Most of their ''space is 

 used for carnations, but they also grow 

 violets and sweet peas.
