. The American florist : a weekly journal for the trade. Floriculture; Florists. Do vou want our Catalog? Tour Profit, God!rsh froax $2 00 per 100 up Japanese Fish. TKLEPHON HWMXRKET 152 ^M^cCallvtm Co. CLEVELAND Try us for satisfaction. PITTSBURG Cleveland. UNUSUALLY GOOD. Notwithstanding: the heavy rains the past week, October has liad an unusu- ally good beginning, the demand for cut flowers for funerals and decorations being all that could be desired. The stock coming from the outside, sucli as dahlias, gladioli and asters, has suf- fered from the heavy rains and winds. Dahlias in particular being bruised on the plants by the high winds, are not as good as expected. On the other hand indoor stock is improving. Roses of all kinds are of excellent quality and very plentiful with the exception of Mrs. Aaron Ward, which popular rose is far short of the demand. Car- nations were a little short of supply, but the quality is improving wonder- fully. Lily of the valley has been a little scarce this week. Easter lilies and white and yellow chrysanthe- mums, October Frost and Golden Glow, had a good sale, the market cleaning up daily. Boxwood and greens are in good demand, with a good supply. Boston ferns are liaving an excellent run. NOTES. P. G. Blecher, 2650 E. Fifty-fifth street, has gone into the retail florist business for himself. He was formerly with C. M. Wagner, 1327 Euclid ave- nue. A confectionery and cut flower store is to be opened on E. Ninth street near Euclid avenue liv Williams & Stevens. C. F. B. Dayton, O. The weather has been propitious and the trade good and the fall outlook is ?ine. The crops are all looking well and could hardly be improved upon; chrysanthemums in particular never looked better. There has been a won- derful crop of dahlias and the newer varieties are both attractive and profit- .able to the grower. Matthews the Florist will arrange the decoration for the Knight Temp- lar's conclave which convenes here Oc- tober
