The Weekly Florists^ Review^ 



May 4, 1911. 



DAYTON, O. 



The Market. 



In the last ten days there has been 

 plenty of rain, which has somewhat 

 checked the progress of outside work, 

 but there has been plenty to do other- 

 wise. Business has come along "steady 

 by jerks" and, when summed up, 

 amounted to quite a satisfactory total. 



Carnations, locally speaking, are still 

 a drawback. Were it not for the ones 

 that are being shipped in, the supply 

 would be decidedly scarce. Roses are 

 cropping abundantly, and the demand 

 keeps up fairly well. Lilies are also 

 abundant, but move slowly. Green 

 goods are scarce. Pot plants are begin- 

 ning to move, and as the weather 

 warms up the demand will increase. 



Various Notes. 



J. W. McNary, the nurseryman, re- 

 ported business in his line to be a little 

 bit slow, owing to the rainy weather. 



Mrs. B. Haschke went to Springfield, 

 O., on a short business trip last week, 

 and while there she visited several of 

 the wholesale growers. 



Carnation growers are commencing 

 to feel the approach of Mothers' day, 

 as inquiries on white carnations are 

 beginning to come in. 



Eay Bartholomew has been the victim 

 of ptomaine poison during the last ten 

 day^. At the present writing his con- 

 dition is much improved. 



John Boehner has secured the con- 

 tract to furnish all the bedding plants 

 for the city parks and public squares. 



Mrs. E. Young had a big wedding 

 decoration on hand last week. 



Last week was a busy one in- funeral 

 work for Mrs. L. D. Johnsofi. 



Will Eitter was on the sick list last 

 week. 



The Heiss Co. reports that trade has 

 been good right along and the outlook 

 is encouraging. 



The Miami Floral Co. reports a satis- 

 factory trade since Easter. Owing to 

 the heavy rains this company has been 

 detained from planting its carnations 

 in the field, but expects to set out 100,- 

 000 plants, starting the work this week 

 if the weather permits. R. A. B.
