The Weekly Florists' Review^ 



MAiicii 0, 1902. 



KANSAS CITY, MO. 



EveiTthiiig seems to be moving along 

 at a good rate, with very little differ- 

 ence in tlie situation than when I wrote 

 my last notes. Clear, cold weather has 

 largely prevailed and has been a large 

 factor in keeping business brisk in all 

 quarters, ^'aicntine■s day failed to cre- 

 ate much of an increase in sales. Mrs. 

 Edgar reported a heavy sale on violets, 

 but she seems. to have handled the bulk 

 of them, for there were few sold by the 

 other florists. 



A department sliue sold u.OOO carna- 

 tions at two cents a piece last Saturday, 

 but as they did not wrap them up and 

 the thermometer stood 10 degrees above 

 zero, the flowers didn't last very long 

 after they reached the street. 



Eumor has it that this same depart- 

 ment store will open a permanent cut- 

 flower department in the near future. 



Prices so far have not been affected by 

 Lent, and hold up to last figures with 

 exception of tulips, which only bring 

 $3 for the best. 



Mr. Louis Asmussen passed through 

 on his way home to Clear Lake, Iowa, 

 from G. M. Kellogg's place at Pleasant 

 Hill. ilr. Asmussen sa.ys everything is 

 looking well at Mr. Kellogg's place, des- 

 pite the thrips. He also said their 

 l)onch grown carnations were making 

 some fine blooms. Jonx H. Vesey. 



RICHMOND. VA. 



In the floriculture statistics from the 

 census of 1900 Virginia ranks twenty- 

 fifth among fifty states, with 56 estab- 

 lishments and sales of .$190,990. 



Richmond, or Henrico county, heads 

 the state with 14 establishments, oc- 

 cupying 131 quarter acres of ground 

 and sales aggregating $77,710. whicli is 

 considerably more than one-third of the 

 state's llorioulture ])rodu(ts. Louisa 

 coimty. tlie violet district, ranks sec- 

 ond, with 20 establishments, .'>! quarter 

 acres of land, and sales. $18,631. 



This leaves Norfolk third, with 4 es- 

 tablishments. 33 quarter acres of land, 

 and sales of $1.5,280. The combined sales 

 of these counties almost aggregate two- 

 thirds of the entire state's showing. 



SHERM.4.X, Tex.— Mr. H. O. Hannah 

 lost a few lights of glass by hail, Fcbru 

 ary 19. He was fully insured in the 

 Florists' Hail Association. That organi- 

 zation now insures upwards of 15,000,- 

 000 square feet of glass.
