. Florists' review [microform]. Floriculture. Pat. Oct. ao, 191> OMAHA, NEB. The Market. The market is cleaned up early each day. Often everything is sold long be- fore it is cut. Koses, especially, have had a great demand, with a pitifully small supply. All retailers have been obliged to curtail orders. Fortunately, there has been no big work and it may be that, with nice weather again, we shall get by. Every item in the grow- ing end was scarce last week. The quality was good. All carnation grow- ers are fortunate this winter. The stock has been good and the deman4 has more than taken up all that the growers have produced thus far. Good carnations are selling at $8 per hundred, with an occasional order at $10 per hundred. However, some nice white carnations have been selling at $6 per Lilies of all kinds are scarce. Callas are in great demand, with only one-half enough to supply the demand. Some valley is to be had, but is nothing extra, selling at $6 and $8 per hundred. Nearly all the growers are cutting an exceptionally heavy crop of sweet peas. "White narcissi are in fair supply. Calendulas never were better and are becoming popular, especially for the dinner tables. Freesias are just begin- ning to make their first appearance. Home-grown violets never were better and stems are getting a little longer. There is a fair movement of flowering plants, especially cyclamens and cinera- rias, but most of the stores are using them in decorative displays in the store and window. Various Notes. Among those calling on the trade last week were M. H. Levine, of New York, and H. Pruner, of the Poehlmann Bros. Co., Chicago. Miss Clara Simansky, formerly of the A. Donaghue store, has taken a position with the John Bath Co. Miss Loise Wegner, who has been em- ployed at J. F. Wilcox & Sons' re- tail store the last three years, has given up her position to take up nursing. She hopes to take up her new work at Beaver Dam, Wis., by February 1. Miss Emma Sweedl
