CINCINNATI. 



The Gateway to the South. 



Last week, after Ash Wednesday, the 

 market eased considerably, and by Sat- 

 urday there were adequate receipts in 

 almost every line. After the blizzard 

 of the early part of the week the sun 

 came out bright each day. The de- 

 mand, however, is only ordinary, and 

 unless it strengthens greatly to take 

 up the increased supply, there will be a 

 crowded market before long. 



Killarney and "White Killarney, Kich- 

 mond and Taft have increased greatly 

 in supply on new crops that are coming 

 in and the stock is good. American 

 Beauties are still more or less conspic- 

 uous by their absence. 



Sweet pea receipts have increased 

 greatly. Jfink ones are the best sellers. 

 In the other colors only the best find 

 a ready market. Prices have dropped. 

 The prices on carnations, too, are drop- 

 ping. The offerings are about the same 

 as those of the last few weeks, but 

 since the influx of the larger cuts of 

 other flowers some of the demand has 

 turned away from them. 



Giganteum lilies sell well. The same 

 is true of callas and rubrums. None of 

 the three, however, are in large supply. 

 Bulbous stock is arriving in larger quan- 

 tities than before, but outside of the 

 call for the best, it is enjoying no par- 

 ticular demand. Other offerings include 

 violets, both double and single, valley, 

 orchids, primroses and snapdragons. 

 Outdoor grown daffodils are about due 

 to arrive from southern Illinois. 



Various Notes. 



The Florists' Club will hold its reg- 

 ular meeting Monday, March 9. 



E. G. Gillett reports a satisfactory 

 business for the month of February. 

 His business ran ahead of that of the 

 same month last year. 



C. E. Critchell reports that lilies are 

 moving nicely. 



The fine Killarney and White Killar- 

 ney from L. Frank & Sons are again 

 coming in strong at L. H. Kyrk's store. 



The Cincinnati Cut Flower Exchange 

 has been receiving an excellent line of 

 valley.
