The Weekly Floiists' Review* 



KANSAS QTY. MO. 



Trade Items. 



Trade has been anything liut salis- 

 tailory for the month of !->cptriiil)cr. 

 An occasional funeral order kccii^ the 

 market pretty well cleaned ii]i nf all 

 good white flowers. Late honi<' grown 

 asters were plentiful and sold well. 

 Young roses and cainations are making 

 good growth and preparations have been 

 made to increase the production over 

 previous years. Society is inactive and 

 nothing of importance in the line of 

 weddings or other events have been an- 

 nounced so far this season. 



The florists made appropriate window- 

 displays following the death of our il- 

 lustrious president. The most effective 

 arrangement was the one put up by VV. 

 L. Rock at his 11th street store, which 

 was reopened on the l'2th inst. Memo- 

 'rial services were held here last Thurs- 

 day and the president's favorite ilower, 

 the carnation, was much sought for, the 

 red ones selling for 10 cents each. 



From Pleasant Hill, Mo., we learn 

 that Mr. George M. Kellogg has just 

 completed ten new houses 200x20 feet 

 each. He now owns a neat little rnnirc 

 of 200,000 feet of glass. Jlr. Kcll..-- 

 grows general stock, making :i -|ir. i,illy 

 of roses. He ships daily to tlii~ inarkcl 

 and his stock is clean and of good 

 quality. - 



Under the name of "The Chicago 

 Floral Co." a new store was opened last 

 week at the corner of 11th and Magee 

 streets. John Snyder proudly tells us 

 that he is practically the whole thing 

 there and will do a wholesale and retail 

 business, getting his entire supply from 

 Cliicago. John is the proprietor of two 

 stores and his commanding figure is 

 seen upon the streets now more frequent- 

 ly than ever. 



^ F. Ross, formerly with the Humfeld 

 Floral Co., has opened a retail store at 

 817 Waii;ut street. ■ 



W. J. Hesser, of Plattsmouth. Neb., 

 was a visitor recently. H. J. M. 



WATER SUPPLY. 



Will .some reader of the Review tell 

 us the best method of erecting water 

 plant, consisting of wind mill and a 

 tank or several tanks, with a total ca- 

 pacity of 6,000 gallons? 



We want the above for partial water- 

 ings and not necessarily elevated enough 

 to syringe with. 



Tire water problem is a question of 

 much interest to us, and we read with 

 pleasure the recent articles in the Re- 

 view on the subject. 



Lebanon Greenhouses. 



Richmond, Va. — Among the floral 

 tributes sent from this city to the Presi- 

 dent's funeral was a six-foot wreath of 

 galax leaves, festooned with 200 Ameri- 

 can Beauty roses and tied with a wide 

 gray silk ribbon (with the name of the 

 city in gold) in the bow of which was 

 placed an Ar*erican flag. It was sent 

 by the city council and was arranged by 

 Mann & Brown, the price being $200. 



Decorah, Ia. — W. T. Simonds is add- 

 ing still another new house, and he now 

 has six in all.
