The Market. 



Summer has come on us all at once, 

 ""'I naturally has a tendency to depre- 

 '■'••te the value of flowers and reduce 

 * 10 size of carnations and roses and rob 

 tliem of their natural radiance. How- 

 •"^ Pr, trade held up remarkably well last 

 |^''ek, and no serious complaints are 

 'H'ing offered. Last week's business 

 ^'•*s partly due to the commencement 

 t'xercises, which cleaned out all red car- 

 "Htions at 75 cents per dozen. 



The rose crop is quite abundant at 



present, but the exceedingly hot weath- 

 er has had a telling effect on them, and 

 in spite of a good demand some will 

 spoil on our hands. My Maryland is 

 quite a favorite among the trade at the 

 present time, as it seems to withstand 

 the hot weather remarkably well, and, 

 at the same time, holds its color nicely. 

 There is an overabundant supply of 

 Lilium giganteum in the market at 

 present, and although there is a fair de- 

 mand for them, only a comparatively 

 small quantity is kept on the move; as 

 to quality, they could not be better. 

 Lilium Melpomene and L. speciosum are 

 also in stock, but not so plentiful; con- 

 sequently none of them suffer. The de- 

 mand for valley is good, probably due 

 to the June weddings. The calla lily 

 season is ended, as they have been 

 turned down for their annual rest; in 

 fact, we are beginning to feel the usual 

 summer decline in practically all lines. 



Various Notes. 

 The Miami Floral Co. had the order 

 to furnish 2,000 red carnations and 



badges to be used in the large demo- 

 cratic convention which was held in 

 this city June 21 and 22. 



The Dayton Florists' Club has ad- 

 journed for the summer. 



L. A. Thomas, Troy, O., visited this 

 city June 19 and says that business is 

 good. Mr. Thomas is building quite an 

 extensive addition to his present range. 



Paul M. Halbrooks, of the Columbus 

 Floral Co., Columbus, O., visited Day- 

 ton June 19, with his wife. They were 

 guests of Mr. and Mrs. George Bar- 

 tholomew. B. A. B. 



Salt Lake City, Utah.— The Sanders- 

 Granger Floral Co., at 276 South Main 

 street, has been doing some well planned 

 and attractive advertising in the local 

 newspapers. 



Danvers, Mass. — E. & C. Woodman, 

 whose greenhouses are on Holten street, 

 Tapleyville, do a considerable shipping 

 business, in addition to their steadily in- 

 creasing local trade. Their stock is in 

 remarkably fine condition.
