KANSAS CITY. MO. 



On Wednesday, Xov. 7, the fioiists of 

 lliis city and the nations of W. L. Eoek 

 received a neat and attractive card in- 

 viting their presence at his third chry- 

 santhemum sliow. Southern smilax was 

 used, being draped from the ceiling and 

 on tlie walls against a background of 

 white cheese cloth. A feature of the 

 show which interested the ladies mostly 

 was the table center pieces made of adi- 

 anlum ferns, valley and orchids. Mums 

 exhibited on single stems were the finest 

 ever seen in Kansas City. Mr. Rock be- 

 lieves these displays to be the best meth- 

 od of advertising his business, and the 

 way in which everything was arranged 

 cannot help but increase the love for 

 flowers. 



The election and a decided change in 

 the atmosphere affected business some 

 last week. Very little funeral work is 

 being done, consequently much short 

 stemmed material going to waste. 



The October ball given by the 400 at 

 the Midland Hotel on the 'soth of last 

 month called for a large number of swell 

 bouquets. The decorations were ar- 

 ranged by Ed. Pratt. Ten crates of smi- 

 lax and over 3,000 Beauty ro.ses were used 

 in the execution of this job. Ed. is a 

 hustler and has the faculty of getting 

 more than his share of decorations. 



Cooler weather has helped to improve 

 the color and quality of roses, and prices 

 remain firm for the best long stemmed. 

 Mums are plentiful and of good quality, 

 far superior to those grown in former 

 years, yet we fear from the amount of 

 sales and prices realized that this flower 

 is not as great a favorite here as the car- 

 nation. One grower remarked recently: 

 "Why overstock this market with the 

 chrysanthcnuim when larger revenue can 

 be gotten fiom the same amount of space 

 in carnations?" And he was right, as 

 there has always been a shortage of car- 

 nations in this city.
