made-up pans and baskets. He has all 

 his mums in and will have a larger 

 quantity than usual of begonias for the 

 winter months. 



Henry Kusik & Co. are receiving 

 large shipments of cut roses from the 

 north, which arrive in good shape. They 

 are handling a large quantity of home- 

 grown gladioli. 



William Foith sold out clean, having 

 fifty per cent more business than last 

 year. He is cutting an unusually large 

 crop of carnations of large size and has 

 about one acre planted to young carna- 

 tions. 



The S. Bryson Ayres Co. is sending 

 in a large quantity of gypsophilas and 

 some good, outdoor-grown sweet peas. 



Edward Ellsworth now is living at 

 Forest lake, his summer home. He says 

 the store force is occupied with wed- 

 ding decorations. He has 8,000 mums 

 planted and some sweet peas grown out- 

 doors, east of Independence. 



Mrs. T. A. Moseley reports that wed- 

 ding work is plentiful this spring. 



There is no news from E. G. Bunyar, 

 who has left the city for his annual 

 fishing trip by automobile to the Ozark 

 mountains. 



The W. L. Rock Flower Co. is getting 

 its range in shape to plant carnations. 

 The chrysanthemums here are looking 

 fine and are of good height.

The Market. 



So far this week has been a splendid 

 one for business, and from all indica- 

 tions every florist received his share of 

 wedding decorations and orders for 

 school commencements. The unusually 

 heavy demand for good peonies cleaned 

 up the season's supply with satisfac- 

 tory results. A renewed demand for 

 hardy blooming stock is gratifying. 



Never before have we had such a 

 good "quality of flowers from under 

 glass. Eoses of exceptional quality, 

 such as Eussell, Ophelia, Mrs. Ward, 

 My Maryland and Richmond, are re- 

 ceived in quantities and bring good 

 prices. This may also be said of carna- 

 tions, and there are enough valley, or- 

 chids, Easter lilies and irises to meet 

 the demand. Beauties are fine and in 



You Can Have Sugar 



on your bread and butter this summer if you sell 

 Raedlein tumbler size cut flower baskets. 



Of course you know that we manufacture bas- 

 kets of all shapes and sizes and at all prices and 

 sell them too, but as a seasonable offer we suggest

 mer trade :

 ity are plentiful. 



The plantsmen and florists who do 

 landscape work are still busy. Window 

 box filling is now at its height and 

 many growers again report a shortage 

 of ferns for this work. 



Variotis Notes. 



Mr. and Mrs. Fred Burki have re- 

 turned from' Chicago and Peoria. While 

 in Chicago they visited their daughter, 



Roma, who attends school there. 



The wholesale houses have . started 

 on their summer schedule, closing, at 

 five p. m. daily, and Sunday at noon. 



T. P. Langhans, secretary of the 

 Pittsburgh Cut Flower Co., has been 

 in communication with the Department 

 of Commerce relative to a sea plant 

 which the Bureau of Fisheries found in 

 Chesapeake bay. It is an air plant, 

 or sea moss, which was formerly im- 

 ported and sold in this country, from
