MichelFs Asters 



New Aster, Mkhell's " Pink Superb" 



The flowers are of immense size, petals long and Hroad ; 

 those in the center lie curled and incurved to such an extent 

 that the crown is completely covered ; the general appearance 

 of the flower being that of an immense flat Chrysantnemmn ; 

 color, a beautiful light, or shell pink. The exceedingly long 

 stems, which usually measure 34 to 36 inches in length, make 

 it a valuable sort for cutting. Per trade pkt., 60c; $1.50 per 

 X oz.; per oz., $5.00.

DAYTON. O. 



The Market. 



There was no improvement in the 

 condition of trade last week, and there 



appears to be no improvement in sight, 

 although the florists are expecting big 

 things from the Easter trade. Boses 

 and carnations are not in heavy sup- 

 ply and the weather is such that it 

 does not advance the cut materially. 

 The only cut that is overabundant is 

 the lily crop. The sale of spring flow- 

 ers is rushing, but these are not over- 

 abundant, due to the fact that the 

 weather has been too severe to allow 

 the grower to get them in from the 

 outside. 



Various Notes. 



The Dayton Florists' Club held its 

 annual election of officers March 4, 

 with the following results: Forrest E. 

 Mitman, president; Arthur Schmidt, 

 vice-president; Horace M. Frank, sec- 

 retary, and George Bartholomew, treas- 

 urer. The club has decided to hold its 

 annual banquet the last week of this 

 month at the Hotel Phillips.
