Business keeps moving along in the 

 same old way. Flowers are plentiful, so 

 much so, in fa"ct, that John Gratopp 

 started throwing out roses and carnations, 

 and replants with lettuce as soon as the 

 plants are large enough. He says he 

 shall not make a cutting this season and 

 expects to grow nothing but lettuce, rad- 

 ishes, tomatoes and cucumbers. 



Albert Witterstaetter went out of busi- 

 ness last summer and took a' position 

 with E. A. Kuhnke. 



Krueger Bros, have their city place in 

 fine shape. 



Cyclamens and Boston ferns seem to 

 have gone out of fashion. They do not 

 sell nearly so well as they used to a 

 couple of years ago. E. A. K. 



COLUMBUS, OHIO. 



The Market 



Trade has kept up well for the last two 

 weeks. There has been a good demand 

 for decorative material and stock for 

 table decorations, and this, with a lot 

 of funeral work between times, has kept 

 all the florists busy. There have been 

 more receptions lately than in a long 

 time before, and business, as a whole, is 

 better than it was before the holidays. 

 The North Side Chamber of Commerce 

 gave a charity ball, which proved a great 

 success and which used many cut flow- 

 ers in its decorations. 



Roses are coming in well, especially 

 Brides and Maids. Killamey, however, 

 has been off crop for a week or so. 

 Carnations are fine and meet with ready 

 sales at good prices. Tulips are now 

 coming in such quantities as to make one 

 take notice, and all bulb stock is fine. 



Violets are coming rtiore plentifully 

 and sales have been heavy on them. The 

 single seems to be the favorite here. 



Various Notes. 



The Florists ' Club held a regular meet- 

 ing at the store of the Fifth Avenue 

 Floral Co. This was the first meeting 

 since the holidays. There was a good 

 attendance and it was decided to give 

 another dance in the near future. O. 

 Munk gave a nice talk on his trip to 

 Indianapolis and it was enjoyed by all 

 the club. 



The Fifth Avenue Floral Co. has a 

 lot of azaleas that are just right, and 

 they are finding ready sales. 



The Franklin Park Floral Co. reports 

 business as unusually active. 



C. A. Eoth reports business as good,
