(First on introduction of 1901. at Kansas City) is certainly proving our claims for it and consequently 

 a money maker for the grower. It commands the highest price. Our stock is large and in grand 

 shape. No order is too large or too small for us to fill. 9S.OO per 100 ; $40.00 per 1000.

Trade and Other Notes. 



Christmas business was good and shows 

 an increase of about 25 per cent over 

 last year; prices ruled about the same. 

 The call for Beauties, carnations, Ro- 

 mans, narcissus and violets was great. 

 Lots of good blooming plants were sold. 

 Some extra fine Begonia Gloire de Lor- 

 raine sold at good prices. Large quan- 

 tities of holly were sold, but the florists 

 in our citj' have a great deal to contend 

 with in this line, as peddlers go around 

 with a wagon and sell wreaths at 5 cents 

 each, or six for 25 cents. I don't think 

 there is any money in it for the florist. 



Jacob Schultz made a very fine dis- 

 play at his store and reports a veiy 

 large Christmas trade, which was far 

 ahead of last year's. 



Jos. Coenen ifc Co. came in for a good 

 share, as they had the finest lot of Be- 

 gonia Gloire de Lorraine in (i and S-inch 

 pots ever .seen here, and they disposed 

 of them very quickly. 



J. E. Marrett reports a very hea\'^' 

 Christmas trade. He sold lots of plants 

 and holly. 



E. G. Reinicrs did a large business in 

 cut flowers and plants. 



Nanz & Ncuner had all thoy could at- 

 tend to in the way of ChrislnKis trade. 



C. IL Kunzman, the West End carna- 

 tion king, reports an increase of 27 per 

 cent over last year. 



William Mann took good care of his 

 trade in the southern part of the city 

 and has swelled his bank account con- 

 siderably. 



William Walker's new range of green- 

 houses is a beauty and is everything in 

 the way of construction (hat could be 

 tlesired. His stock is looking fine. 



At the meeting of the Kentucky So- 

 ciety of Florists the following members 

 were elected for the ensuing year: Pres- 

 ident, .Jacob Schultz; vice-president, H. 

 G. Walker; financial secretary. Jos. Coe- 

 nen; secretary, Henry Lichtcfeld; treas- 

 urer, C. H. Kunzman: trustee. .John 

 Bohrman ; sergcaut-at-arms, William 

 Mann. 



Louisville will be well represented at 

 the carnation meeting at Indianapolis 

 next month. 



Wisliing the Florlsts' Review a suc- 

 cessful, happy New Year. 



Ht. Lichtefeld. 



Ottawa, Out. — A. C. Tyndall reports 

 Christmas trade as entirely satisfactory. 

 Sales beyond ordinary expectation. All 

 the florists were sold out clean Christmas 

 eve. Some very fine stock was seen. The 

 weather favored trade of all kinds, being 

 sunshiny with a very moderate degree of 

 cold. 



Pasadena, Cal. — The annual tourna- 

 ment of roses was held January 1 and 

 it brought multitudes of visitors to the 

 city. The parade of decorated vehicles 

 contained many very original floats. On

 000 flowers were used.
