Mabch 19, 1914. 



-^* CINCINNATI. 



The Gateway to the South. 



Business last week was just about 

 fair. Sales were large and, in spite 

 of the low orices, the week 's business 

 ran into fair a^fgregate figures. There 

 was a good supply of white carnations 

 for St. Patrick's day. The demand 

 proved so strong that all were readily 

 taken up at prices that were rather 

 stiff when compared ' with prices on 

 other stock in the market. 



Boses are coming, in steadily. As a 

 whole they prove adequate for require- 

 ments, except in the case of American 

 Beauties. Carnations continue in good 

 supply. The receipts of giganteum 

 lilies have increased. Callas are suffi- 

 cient for requirements. Of the list 

 of small bulbous stock, the jonquils 

 are of the best quality and are prov- 

 ing most popular when sold at ordi- 

 nary prices. Sweet pea receipts are 

 heavy. Those of the best quality find 

 a nice market. Violet receipts, too, 

 are heavy, but they meet with a poor 

 call. Valley offerings are excellent, 

 but they, too, meet with a rather slow 

 market. The same is true of orchids. 



The decorative green line shows only 

 limited offerings of smilax and a good 

 demand for ferns. 



Various Notes. 



The .Hyde Park Rose Co. has been 

 shipping some fine lilies to the Cin- 

 cinnati Cut Flower Exchange. 



C. E. Critchell reports a strong call 

 for ferns -and hanging baskets. 



L. H. Kyrk has been receiving ex- 

 cellent forget-me-nots -from Geo. Klot- 

 ter, of Price Hill. 



Schumann & Wahlers succeeded in 

 getting a nice lot of hydrangeas into 

 full bloom last week. All were quickly 

 snapped up. 



It is with regret that I write of the 

 recent death of Ernst Mack, of Price 

 Hill. Mr. Mack was a prominent fig- 

 ure in the local trade for nearly twenty- 

 five .years. 



Out-of-town buyers in the city last 

 week yfere Mr. and Mrs. G. A. Beck- 

 man, of Middletown, O.; Wm. Eodgers, 

 of Dayton; Fred Bupp, of Lawrence- 

 burg, Ind.; Wm. Lodder, Walter Grey 

 and Carl Heiser, of- Hamilton, O., and 

 Carl Brehmer, of Chillicothe, O. Other 

 visitors were Fred Lemon, of Richmond, 

 •Ind.; Milton Alexander, of Lion & Co., 

 New York, and Martin Reukauf, of 

 Bayersdorfer & Co., Philadelphia.

A New Sun-heated Greenhouse 



The Sunlight idea has been carried into an inexpensive greenhouse, 11 x 12, 

 11x24, 11x86. or 11x48 feet in size. It is made of Sunlight Double Glass 

 Sash, which are instantly adjustable for top ventilation and instantly 

 removable for use on hot-beds or cold-frames. Thus they serve a double 

 purpose.. For this reason, and also because no expensive system of artificial 

 heating is reauired, this greenhouse is the cheapest you can buy. 



Wrlt« Cor thes« two books today 



One is a book by Prof. Haaeey, an anthorlty on hot-bed and cold-frame garden- 

 ing, and the other is our free catalogue. If you want Prof. Massey's book, enclose
