 health. 



The meeting of the Missouri State 

 Florists' Association is not to be hold 

 at Kansas City the first week in No- 

 vember, as was announced. Secretary 

 Archias, of Sedalia, Mo., will announce 

 the date and place later. The St. Louis 

 members of the association will meet 

 this week and invite them to hold the 

 meeting in St. Louis sometime this 

 month. 



Fred Foster has added candy and 

 fruit to the store at Seventh and Olive 

 streets. The big display of mums in- 

 creased the attractiveness greatly. 



H, F. Hill is now St. Louis repre- 

 sentative of the A. L. Eandall Co., 

 Chicago, and reports that he will open 

 a sample room near the wholesale dis- 

 trict.

Charles, Henry and William Meier, of 

 Kirkwood, Mo., are cutting a heavy 

 supply of mums of extra fine qual- 

 ity. These three brothers operate sepa- 

 rate ranges and grow carnations, sweet 

 peas and violets of fine quality. 



All of the six wholesale markets keep 

 open on Sundays, except C. A. Kuehn, 

 who believes in one day of rest for him- 

 self and his employees. There is a move- 

 ment on foot for the other five to fol- 

 low the example set by Mr. Kuehn, and 

 it will not be long before all retailers 

 will also close on Sundays. 



Alexander Lurie and W. S. Wells, 

 formerly of St. Louis, report tliat they 

 have opened a retail store at Ann Arbor, 

 Mich., under the name of the Blu- 

 Maize Blossom Shop. Both men are 

 members of the St. Louis Florists' Club. 



The handicap series of the "Say It 

 with Flowers" Bowling League started 

 October 29, when the Roses lost the 

 odd game to the Carnations by giving 

 them a nineteen-pin handicap. The 

 Daisies were given a thirty-pin handi- 

 cap by the Sweet Peas and lost the odd 

 game by only ten pins. C. A. Kuehn, 

 one of the old-timers, came out of re- 

 tirement and Captain Bourdet was sur- 

 prised by having Mr. Kuehn roll with 

 the Daisies. Carl Beyer and J. J. 

 Beneke, two other old-timers, are with 

 Captain Kuehn 's Roses,- but as yet

The Market. 



With the chrysanthemum arrivals 

 growing heavier and demand none too 

 robust, the flower market is not at pres- 

 ent in a particularly strong position and 

 prices have weakened, especially on 



roses and carnations. The political sit- 

 uation here is tense and a sweeping vic- 

 tory for the forces of conservatism and 

 the rout of the radical labor element 

 will go a long way toward improving 

 business not only in flowers, but in all 

 commodities. Chrysanthemums are abun- 

 dant, especially such Aarieties as Chief- 

 tain, Rager, Yellow Rager, Bonnaffon, 

 Pacific Supreme and Chrysolora. Pom- 

 pons are in larger supply. These and 

 singles sell well. 



Roses are temporarily in the doldrums 

 and clearances are made only at low
