still behind in their shipping depart-

C. G. Anderson, manager of the plant 

 department of Poehlmann Bros. Co., has 

 been vexed by the nonarrival of a 

 second shipment of azaleas. He has had 

 excellent success with Begonia Glory of 

 Cincinnati this season. 



W. P. Kyle, of Kyle & Foerster, acted 

 as chaperon October 28 ' for A. L. 

 Glaser, Dubuque, la. The same day 

 J. S. Wilson, of Des Moines, was in 

 town buying all the bulbs, perennials 

 and shrubs available for fall planting. 

 The lowans agree that business never 

 was so good as now. 



R. A. McPheron, of the Cottage 

 Greenhouses, Litchfield, 111., spent Sun- 

 day with his son, who lives here. He 

 says the only trouble at Litchfield is 

 scarcity of water. William Hild, Miles- 

 ville, S. D., is in town this week buying 

 greenhouse material. Julius Dilloff, of 

 Schloss Bros., New York, spent three 

 or four days among the retailers. Sam 

 Seligman, of Wertheimer Bros., New 

 York, is here again. 



CINCn^TATI. 



The Gateway to the* South. 



This week started without a large 

 supply of stock. Hardly anything had 

 been left over from the previous week 

 and as a result the buyers depended 

 upon Monday morning's arrivals. These 

 were taken up nicely by a good but not 

 an active demand. Last week, while 

 it was slow at the start, business was 

 fairly good at the close. This week, 

 because of All Saints' and All Souls' 

 day, should show an increase in the 

 same ratio as that of last week. 



In chrysanthemums, many of the mid- 

 season and later varieties are now to be 

 had in quantity. Even some fine Bon- 

 naffon came in in limited quantities the 

 early days of the week. The medium 

 blooms are the best sellers. The pom- 

 pons are now here and so far have 

 moved well. Eoses are again selling 

 nicely; no trouble is experienced in 

 cleaning up all good stock. Carnations, 

 too, are going fairly well. There is still 

 a good demand for flowj ~' nc^HPted to

 in stronger than a week ago. Callas 

 have been added to the list. New York 

 double violets are here, but are not in 

 as active demand as they will be in a 

 short time, owing to the strong compe- 

 tition from local single violets. 



Various Notes. 



The Hill-Heller store proved quite 

 an attraction to the public October 24 

 to 26, when a flower show was given 

 and advertised. Chrysanthemums natu- 

 rally were featured, but Sunburst roses 

 and Commodore carnations came in for 

 their share of attention. This E. G. 

 Hill trophies, cups won at many dis- 

 plays, were also on exhibition. E. G. 

 Hill, Myer Heller, Fred Lemon, Earl 

 Mann and H. Shephard were down from 

 their respective places in Indiana to 

 assist in receiving the public.
