Vandervoort During the last few years the growers have formed a strong organization to protect their interests, and this organi- zation will in the future probably be able to prevent great fluctuations in acreage. CINCINNATI, O. Tlie Idarket. Last week found the market not much changed from the preceding week. Stock is still plentiful, but moving fairly well. Gladioli are now a back number, as are asters. Dahlias have stepped in and are filling their places without any trouble. Some extra fancy dahlias are arriving in this market and going well at $4 to $10 per hundred. Eoses are finding ready sale daily; in fact, toward the close of last week they were not so plentiful. Crusader seems to be quite popular in Cincinnati. It is cleaning up well. This also can be said for Madame Butterfly and Premier. Mums are becoming a little more plentiful and are going well, the best bringing $3 per dozen. The first sweet peas of the season ar- rived and sold well, owing to the lim- ited quantity that arrived. Carnations are getting better and Easter lilies are finding a good market and moving steadily at $15 per hundred. Some delphinium arrived and, like the peas, went well because of the few on the market. Some excellent buddleia found only a fair market. Various Notes. The William Murphy Co. has rear- ranged its store and now is ready to handle its supply business much more easily. Lee Witterstaetter and Leonard Long have been added to the force. William Speck has undergone an operation on his foot at St. Elizabeth's hospital and is reported to be getting along nicely. Eay Eck, of Eck Bros., reports busi- ness quite brisk with them. He said they were often forced to work far into the night to get the orders filled. C. E. Critchell reports a heavy week *b sales in baskets, chiffons and ribbons. H. W. Sheppard had quite a good week on plants and decorations. The Avondale Floral Co. has had some clever window displays lately. GLAD
