great this fall that its entire stock is

The Lawrence Floral Co., of Idaho 

 Falls, Id., also reports a demand beyond 

 the capacity of supply. G. K. U. 



"I note with considerable interest the 

 item in The Review regarding the short- 

 age of greens and while it seems to have 

 covered the subject quite thoroughly, 

 no mention was made of the green fam- 

 ine which existed for a short time on 

 the west coast," says Robert Newcomb, 

 of the Miller Floral Co. "We were ten 

 days without a bit of green, due to 

 shortage of help, sickness of employees 

 of the green pickers, and an overwhelm- 

 ing demand for greens caused by so 

 much funeral work." Another shortage 

 was of wire frames, which gave rise 

 to such items as this, from an Ogdcn 

 newspaper: 



"Allegation that certain florists of 

 Ogden are removing floral pieces from 

 the graves of those recently deceased 

 and placing them on sale again was the 

 substance of a report received by tlie 

 city commission yesterday. An inves- 

 tigation will be made by the police de- 

 partment." 



East St. Louis, 111. — Miss L. Doussard 

 had a window display calling attention 

 to the Fourth Liberty Ijoan by a repre- 

 sentation of the dash for Metz, showing 

 the mountains and woods, with soldiers, 

 machine guns, cannon and tanks. Gen- 

 eral Pershing was shown leading his vic- 

 torious army toward Berlin. 



Columbus, Miss. — T. G. Owen says the 

 efforts of the local branch of the United 

 States Employment Service to recruit 

 unskilled labor have unsettled labor con- 

 ditions for the nonwar industries even 

 though that lOibor be such as is classed 

 as skilled. Gi'eenhouse employees, he 

 says, fail to appreciate that they are 

 skilled workers in this trade and un- 

 skilled common labor when they ehanjje 

 to another line. Under normal condi- 

 tions Mr. Owen employs about thirty 

 men in his greenhouses; now he lias only 

 eighteen.
