CINCINNATI. 



Attendance the Weak Point. 



The Cincinnati flower show, last 

 week's report of which covered all the 

 show from a trade standpoint, con- 

 tinued through the week and was a suc- 

 cess in every respect except attend- 

 ance, which was decidedly disappoint- 

 ing. 



Table decorations were the feature 

 November 16. The prizes were awarded 

 to Tromey's Flower Shop and Edith F. 

 Kyrk, November 18 bride's and brides- 

 maid's bouquets were on, the premiums 

 going to Hardesty & Co., first, and 

 Edith F. Kyrk. Handle baskets also 

 were shown, the awards going to Har- 

 desty & Co., Edith F. Kyrk and Tro- 



mey 's Flower Shop in the order named. 



Ellis Woodworth, representing the 

 Sefton Mfg. Co., had a pretty trade 

 display of his line of boxes. He em- 

 phasized particularly the new corru- 

 gated plant box, which attracted quite 

 a good deal of attention. 



Wm. Murphy's splendid work as su- 

 perintendent of the show is worthy of 

 all praise. Milton Ameilcana Alexan- 

 der, of New York, acted as auctioneer 

 on Saturday evening. 



The smoker that C. E. Critchell, P. J. 

 dinger and Charles H. Hoffmeister ar- 

 ranged at the Bismarck was successful. 

 About 150 sat down to the lunch. 

 President Gus Adri^in welcomed the 

 guflists. The toastmaster, Charles H. 

 Hoffmeister, introduced the following 

 speakers; President-elect H. Vincent, 

 Jr., of the 8. A, F.; President H. E.
