The Florists^ Review 



21 



That tliis firm looks forward to a 

 conlimiation of the larjjc demand for 

 flowers is evident from the assertion of 

 Manager P. A. Manson that 45,000 car- 

 nations were benched July 10 and over 

 50,000 rose plants, principally Premier, 

 Dunlop, Butterfly, Crusader and John 

 Cook, arc in fine shape and everything 

 points to one of the largest cuts of roses 

 ever placed on the Kansas City market. 



Keproduced herewith is a photograph 

 of the oflficcrs of the Pinehurst Floral ' 

 Co., grouped at their round table, dis- 

 cussing, perhaps, the why and wherefore 

 of gluts, or maybe they are planning 

 another picnic for the city folks. The 

 firm, which was established May 1, 1914, 

 to succeed the Kellogg Flower & Plant 

 Co., has been steadily growing and is 

 now one of the foremost wholesale con- 

 cerns in the west. The officers are: 

 President, Tucker Smith; vice-president 

 and treasurer, Earl Parker; secret a ry, 

 Harry Blake, and general manager, P. 

 A. Manson. 



ROCHESTER, N. Y. 



The Market. 



Summer trade has been rather quiet, 

 but there have been a few busy days 

 when the forces of the various stores 

 were kept hustling. 



The crop of summer roses is getting 

 smaller each day and the flowers are 

 smaller and the steins shorter. Gladioli 

 are plentiful and are used a great deal. 

 Carnations are small and are used only 

 for funeral work. Sweet peas are in 

 their prime and the market is flooded 

 with them; consequently the ]irice is 

 low. White sweet peas have been much 

 used' for July weddings. Lilies of the 

 valley can be had only in small quan- 

 tities.
