Cut Flower Co., was here March 22 for 

 a look at the market. He is building 

 up a large shipping trade for his con- 

 cern and finds much of interest in the 

 Chicago market and methods. 



KANSAS CITY, MO. 



The Market. 



Business has picked up considerably 

 and a slight increase in funeral orders, 

 along with the general buying, has kept 

 the market in a fair condition. Carna- 

 tions continue to arrive in large quan- 

 tities and are of the best quality. Koses 

 are not so plentiful as might be de- 

 sired, but there are enough to satisfy 

 the demand. Easter and calla lilies are 

 making their appearance in quantity in 

 the stores. At present the prices re- 

 main unchanged. 



For the last three weeks there has 

 been at least one bad wind storm each 

 week. The worst one came Wednesday 

 night, March 17, and, while no serious 

 damage was done to any of Jthe green- 

 houses, a few had a loss of glass and it 

 was cause for the growers to worry 

 about their stock. Thursday afternoon, 

 March 18, another storm came up, a 

 part of tlie gale from Wyoming and 

 Colorado. For a time the dust and sand 

 were thick in the air and everything 

 was soon covered. The soil sifted 

 through the windows, but -did not in- 

 jure the plants or flowers. 



Various Notes. 



The Pinehurst Floral Co. had a ship- 

 ment of hydrangeas Friday, March 19, 

 wliiili were quickly sold out. This firm 

 lias been getting some daisies along 

 with tlie spring stock.

The W. L. Rock Flower Co. has a 

 number of Easter novelties on display. 

 It is continuing the placing of price 

 cards on plants and cnt flowers in its 

 windows and finds it a good thing in 

 drawing trade.
