 & Sons, and reports everything in splen-

The market was visited this week by 

 A. T. Bushong, proprietor of the Gary

 of Mrs. J. B. Freeman, Toledo, 0., was 

 a visitor on the market this week. 



KANSAS CITY. 



The IVIarket. 



There is a change in the condition of 

 the market. The supply of cut flowers 

 is lighter and business is a little heavier 

 this week, especially in wedding deco- 

 rations. Roses of all kinds are less 

 plentiful; the higher grades are going 

 up in price, as the demand for them is 



large. The lower grades are not so 

 scarce. The home-grown carnations are 

 still good. They have lasted longer this 

 spring than in previous years, due to 

 the cool weather. Peonies are practi- 

 cally out of the market. There are 

 large quantities of gladioli of fine qual- 

 ity, which are quickly sold. Gypsophila 

 now is plentiful and the demand for 

 this flower is heavier this spring than 

 ever before. Large spaces are devoted 

 to this flower and some of the growers 

 say that more will be grown next year. 

 Shasta daisies, coreopsis and other per- 

 ennials are in full bloom. A large 

 quantity of larkspurs is in the market 

 and these are among the best summer 

 flowers for all-around work. The per- 

 ennials this year are better than ever 

 before. 



Various Notes. 



Adolph Mohr is glazing two of his 

 new houses and will have them ready 

 to plant next week with mums, of which 

 he will have 5,000 plants. He has about 

 4,000 asters in the field. He expects 



to have about 1,000 Lorraine and Cin- 

 cinnati begonias in 6-inch, 7-inch and 

 8-inch pots; 1,500 in 3-inch and 4- inch 

 pots, and 500 cyclamens. Mr. Mohr 

 reports business as being better than 

 in any previous year. He will give up 

 the old range, which he had under a 

 lease. He owns the new place. 



T. J. Noll & Co. now are receiving 

 from Colorado some well grown carna- 

 tions of large size. They have no 

 trouble in disposing of them. They also 

 receive large quantities of gypsophilas 

 from Oklahoma. This concern will 

 handle all orders in this section of the 

 country for the Johnson Basket Co., of 

 Chicago. 



A. F. Barbe is getting his houses in 

 shape. He sold his entire bedding stock 

 and has had an excellent spring busi- 

 ness. He has his chrysanthemums in 

 the benches and will plant carnations 

 this week. His carnations in the field 

 are looking fine. 



W. J. Barnes was busy during the 

 week with funeral work and sold many
