The Florists' Review 



NOVEMBEB 27, 1919. 



YOU WILL MAKE NO MISTAKE 



in placing the order for your next year's greenhouses now. The best 

 grade of the old genuine Louisiana Red Gulf Cypress is scarce and will 

 be more so next spring, while the cost of labor will be higher than it 

 is now. 



Our patent LEAK- PROOF locked gutter has proven a success. If 

 you are not using the same as yet, do so on your next houses and we 

 7 r" ' know we can add your name to our list of satisfied customers.

E. A. Humfeld had a blanket, 4x7 

 feet, of Ophelia roses and violets, with 

 a center of orchids, for the funeral of 

 Mrs. Francis M. Black, November 22. 

 After tiresome waiting for materials, 

 Mr. Humfeld has at last completed three 

 new houses near Independence, Mo., and 

 they are now in running order. One 

 house will be used for sweet peas, an- 

 other for Easter lilies, hydrangeas and 

 ferns and the third for sweet peas and 

 snapdragons. Mr. Humfeld is devoting 

 most of his time now to planting Hol- 

 land bulbs for indoor growing. 



The Pinehnrst Floral Co. has ordered 

 more glass for the pot plant house at 

 Pleasant Hill, which is nearly com- 

 plete. This firm had 7,000 cyclamen 

 plants at the beginning of the season 

 and has sold 2,000 thus far. 



Herman Fisher, of Marysville, Ean.; 

 J. W, Stokes, Springfield, Mo.; O. O. 

 Boston, Tulsa, Okla., and L. H. Archias, 

 Sedalia, Mo., were visitors last week. 



The W. L. Eock Flower Co. reports 

 a busy week, with plenty of nice stock 

 in the way of mums, pompons and anem- 

 ones and some especially good plants. 

 Although roses are being held back for 

 Christmas, there is a fair supply of 

 these also. 



Mrs. T. J. Noll has as her guest for 

 this week her niece, Miss Doris Dag- 

 mar, who is leading woman in a sketch, 

 "The Flattering Word," on the Or- 

 pheum circuit, playing in Kansas City 

 this week. 



A. Newell, Samuel Murray, Adolph 

 Mohr and H. R. Fisher motored from 

 Kansas City to Pleasant Hill, Mo., No- 

 vember 21, to visit the Pinehurst green- 

 houses. 



Miss Hayden, of Samuel Murray's, 

 lays there is a great demand for arti- 

 ficial fruit baskets and baskets of 

 strawdowers. The fruit is new here this 

 season and has taken a great hold on 

 the public fancy, but strawflowers, while 

 selling in the past, have grown in favor 

 of late. 



Florence L. Gooch, representing Gen. 

 A. J. Gooch, wholesale florist of San 

 Francisco, Cal., called on the trade last 

 week. 



Henry Kusik & Co. ordered 175,000 

 mums for Thanksgiving, 



T. J. Noll & Co. are receiving choice 

 lots of mums from their growers and 

 have a fine lot of perfect specimens 

 in their own greenhouses. J. E, K. 



Beloit, Wis. — Robert Welsh is start- 

 ing in business for himself.
