CINCINNATI. 



The Market. 



The larger part of last week brought 

 lis miserable, rainy weather. During 

 tnis time the market showed a substan- 

 tial improvement. The demand, though 

 better on some days than on others, was 

 aotive on the whole. Owing to the con- 

 tinued heavy receipts, prices are still 

 low. We need a heavy frost. 



The rose receipts are easily equal to 

 all immediate wants in this line. Carna- 

 tu ns are coming in stronger. Lilies are 

 P'<'ntiful. Chrysanthemum cuts are 

 l''>'^'e and include a full assortment of 

 *'^'ors and sizes. Many choice dahlias 

 ai' still to be had. Both valley and 

 Ofnids are offered regularly. Cosmos is 

 a"^ undant and good. 



Various Notes. 

 Charles Pfeiffer's Sons, of Fort Thom- 



as, Ky., have been sending excellent 

 mums to this market, where they are rep- 

 resented by the Cincinnati Cut Flower 

 Exchange. 



C. E. Critchell reports a busy week. 



J. A. Peterson has returned from a 

 trip to Akron, Youngstown and Pitts- 

 burgh.

The Market. 



During the last week we have had the 

 first rainfall in over six weeks and conse- 

 quently outdoor stock pushed out won- 

 derful quantities of flowers, but they 

 were soft and poor keepers. The market 

 at the present time is overstocked with 

 all classes and varieties of cut stock. 

 Dahlias are coming in more heavily than 

 ever and a fairly good quantity is being 

 sold. Cosmos has arrived in quantity, 

 but is not being taken up readily.

Mums are now coming strong. Chrys- 

 olora, Ramapo and such varieties are 

 now seen and are about the only thing 

 in the market finding a fair sale in pro- 

 portion to the quantity shipped. Roses 

 are a glut, the demand being mostly for 

 white, in which some fine Double White 

 Killarney are shown. During the week 

 previous lilies sold well but last wevk
