DAYTON, OHIO. 



The Market. 



In these busy clays of May everyone 

 seems to be in a hurry. The' pot plant 

 trade is an addition to the regular run 

 of business, and at the present time it 

 is really a business of itself, as the de- 

 mand steadily increases day by day and 

 plants of all descriptions are commenc- 

 ing to move rapidly. 



Orders for Decoration day bouquets are 

 coming in by the wholesale, and the awful 

 rush makes one almost wish that it was 

 all over. The demand for funeral work 

 was brisk last week, and, as is usual, 

 light colored flowers were scarce, making 

 it impossible to fill all orders. This was 

 especially true with Enchantress and white 

 carnations, which were cut so closely for 

 Mothers' day that one was hardly able 

 to catch up on them. 



The general demand was also good ; so, 

 taking all into consideration, last week's 

 business was most satisfactory in every 

 respect. 



Various Notes. 



The Dayton florists were apprised of 

 the importance of Mothers' day two years 

 ago, but at that time few knew of the 

 idea, although a fair demand for white 

 flowers resulted. The second year, how- 

 ever, it was quite generally known, and 

 a heavier demand ensued, but this season 

 it was known by nearly everyone. The 

 newspapers took the matter up and an- 

 nounced the idea, the mayor issued a proc- 

 lamation, and churches, societies and 

 schools took to the obsers'ance of the day 

 in honor of Mother. The supply was 

 quite inadequate, the only complaint be- 

 ine that the people demanded all white, 

 while, to our way of thinking, all colors 

 are just as appropriate. 



A senator's wife recently visited the 

 floral establishment of Mrs. B. Haschke; 

 her attention was attracted by an unusu- 

 ally elaborate bed of S. A. Nutt gera- 

 niums, and while gazing at them with in- 

 tense admiration she remarked : ' ' How I 

 do love to see a nice, large pot filled 

 with red geraniums and spaghetti ! ' ' 



John Kuhlen, of Jackson, Tenn., has 

 recently accepted a position with the 

 Miami Floral Co. 



The Heiss Co. is tearing down two of 

 the old greenhouses, and in their place 

 will build one large house, with all mod- 

 ern equipments. This firm reports busi- 

 ness to be most encouraging. 



W. W. Horlacker reports that business 

 with him has been exceptionally good. 



Visitors last week were: George Bird, 

 of Sidney, O. ; D. Rusconi, Cincinnati. O. ; 

 A. Leedle, of Leedle Rosary, Springfield, 

 0., and Mr. Hudson, representing Benja- 

 min Hammond, Fishkill-on-Hudson, N. Y.
