The Florists' Review 



AuoTJST 13, 1914. 



CINCINNATI. 



The Market. 



Business is, on the whole, decidedly 

 slow. About every so often, during the 

 last week, there were good spurts, but 

 they were of short duration and did 

 not do much to bring up the total for 

 the week. The supply is large and 

 prices low. On some of the shipments, 

 the wholesalers were fortunate if the 

 cost of express could be obtained. The 

 best quality, 6f course, yielded fair re- 

 turns. Gladioli and asters continue in 

 large supply. Giganteum lilies are 

 abundant. The rose cut continues large 

 and includes many blooms of really good 

 quality. These, however, find a slow 

 market. The supply of Beauties is 

 sufficient for all demands. Good aura- 

 tum and rubrum lilies are offered. The 

 few carnations that come in meet with 

 an indifferent call. Hardy hydrangeas 

 are excellent, but the demand varies. 

 The green goods supply is sufficient to 

 meet all demands. 



Various Notes. 



The effect of the European war on 

 the staple lines in European-made goods 

 and supplies is not worrying C. E. 

 Critchell, for with his policy of always 

 keeping stock up-to-date, he has suffi- 

 cient quantities to last for some time. 



E. {jr. Gillett reports that the public 

 is beginning to realize what a good 

 summer rose Shawyer is. Mr. Gillett 

 receives this variety from F. Benthey 

 & Co., New Castle, Ind. 



Frank & Sons, of Portland, Ind., are 

 shipping some fine Maryland to L. H. 

 Kyrk. 



Mrs. P. J. Olinger, after a long stay 

 in the hospital, expects to return home 

 August 15. Congratulations upon her 

 recovery are in order, as Mrs. Olinger 

 put up a long fight against big odds. 



The engagement of Clarence Peter- 

 son to Miss Mary Critchell has been 

 announced. It is said the ceremony 

 will take place shortly. 



J. F. Keller, of Lexington, Ky., was 

 in the city last week. C. H. H. 



Easthampton, Mass. — George Mcln- 

 tyre is building a third greenhouse, 

 seventy feet long, at his range on 

 Stonepath lane.

The reason that our plants reach you in better 

 condition than plants from other greenhouses is 

 because of our scientific paclcing:; also the fact

 roots. They start quickly. They are not soft.
