Hie Florists' Review 



May 15. 1919. 



KANSAS OITY, MO. 



The Market. 



Excepting carnations, which were held 

 back by cloudy weather, stock this week 

 was fairly plentiful. The market offered 

 roses at 6 to 20 cents; carnations at 8 

 to 10 cents; sweet peas, 75 and $1 per 

 hundred; lilies, $1.50 per dozen; peonies, 

 6 to 8 cents; outdoor lilies of the val- 

 ley, 4 and 5 cents. 



Wholesalers cleaned up everything 

 for Mothers' day. They did not have 

 enough carnations to go around, but 

 dealers showed a good spirit in taking 

 other stock. Boses were in good de- 

 mand. 



Firm Distributes Bonuses. 



The William L. Eock Flower Co. dis- 

 tributed $5,000 in bonuses to its em- 

 ployees May 5. Forty-six persons shared 

 in the distribution and the checks 

 ranged from $60 to $300. The custom 

 of thus rewarding faithful and efficient 

 service has been followed by this firm 

 for several years. Any employee who 

 has been with the company a year is 

 eligible for a bonus. 



William L. Bock, president of the 

 company, says he believes it is only 

 fair to the men and women who have 

 worked with him and helped to build 

 up the business to its present plane that 

 they should have a share in the results 

 of their labors and efforts. Mr. Bock 

 is one of the leading business men of 

 the city, as well as one of the most suc- 

 cessful and progressive florists, and no 

 one of his force works harder than he 

 does, or than he has done in the twenty- 

 two years he has been in business in 

 Kansas City. 



The firm was incorporated some time 

 ago and will eventually pass on to those 

 employees who remain faithful to their 

 work, several already having stock. 

 Mr. Bock believes that it is only a mat- 

 ter of time until all business concerns 

 will be conducted on these lines. 



Various Notes. 



Carl T. Hansen, an employee of the 

 William L. Bock Flower Co., who was 

 a member of the 110th Sanitary Train, 

 has returned from France. Mr. Hansen 

 was gassed and spent some time in a 

 hospital in France. He is well now and 

 expects to return to work after a short 

 visit with relatives. 



H. J. Scheuer, of the Hamersley Mfg. 

 Co., called on the trade this week. 



An attractive flower show poster 

 is being displayed as an advertisement 

 of the fourth annual spring show of the 

 Amateur Flower Gardeners' Associa- 

 tion, which will be held in the Muehle- 

 bach hotel May 17. J. E. K.
