KANSAS CITY. 



There was mucli excitement and en- 

 thusiasm over the arrival of the presi- 

 dent Friday, ilay 1, the weather beintr 

 clear and warm, after a cold snap 

 which destroyed flowers and fi-uits of all 

 kinds. April 29 was a corker for weath- 

 er — rain, sleet and snow. Everybody is 

 busy getting ready to entertain the 

 president. 



W, L. Rock had the decoration at the 

 Baltimore hotel for the reception and 

 luncheon to the president, in which he 

 used two thousand Roosevelt and one 

 thousand Enchantress carnations, these 

 two colors blending together and mak- 

 ing a very fine decoration for the tables. 

 He also used 300 American Beauties, 

 both short and long. 50 strings of smi- 

 lax, 250 sprays of Sprengeri, along with 

 spireas and- hydrangea plants and palms 

 in banks and clusters around the walls 

 and doors, 



A. F. Barbe gets the contract to fur- 

 nish our city parks with about 20,000 

 blooming and foliage plants. 



George M. Kellogg of Pleasant Hill, 

 'Slo.. sent in a fine lot of American 

 Beauties Thursdaj- afternoon to his 

 wholesale place to the help of the flor- 

 ists in town, Mr. Kellogg also sent a 

 fine box of Beauties to the president. 



Stock is still being used up clean, ev- 

 ery florist being somewhat busy. 



A. F, Barbe will enlarge his place 

 with 10.000 feet of glass this spring, 

 which will give him about 50.000 feel 

 devoted to cut flowers and plants. 



Our old friend, .James Payne, is suc- 

 cessor to the late Paul Ducret and ex- 

 pects to build the place up in good shape 

 after June 1.

PITTSBURO. 



The Market. 



It seems this week as if the bottom 

 of the market has dropped out. •'Noth- 

 ing doing" is the phrase used by almost 

 all the florists. Stock of all kinds is 

 arriving in very large quantities and the 

 accumulation of stock at the wholesale 

 places is something awful 1 ' 



Carnations, roses and sweet peas can 

 be bought in quantities at one's own 

 figure. As carnations ai'e plentiful the 

 ordinary grades do not have any show; 

 so many of the fancy sorts are to be liad 

 at a low price. This will also hold good 

 on roses, only the best giades sell, the 

 ordinary and seconds cannot be moved at 

 any figure. 



Sniilax is again plentiful and the de- 

 mand is veiy small. 



Notes. 



Tlie Cut Flower Co. is receiving some 

 very fine dagger ferns, which sell at $2 

 pel- 1.000. 



Jolin Bader is decorating the Pitts- 

 burg Opera House this week. 



Tlieo. F. Beckert, of Coraojxilis. is cut- 

 ting hea\y on sweet peas, of which the 

 quality is hard to beat. 



P'vank Faidk, of Allegheny, is the pat- 

 entee of a gas making appliance; the 

 device is economical and cheap. Mr. 

 Faulk is also de^^oting .some time to a 

 fumigating de^-ice to be worked on the 

 same principle as the gas making ma- 

 chine. 



Over on the Xorth Side E. C. Ludwij' 

 reports business good in fiuieral work. 



Gustave & J. VV, Ludwig have booke.i 

 quite a few June wedding orders an»^ 

 say business is keeping up better than
