was in the market December 15. He 

 says Kansas City will have the greatest 

 Christmas business on record; the sup-

The Market. 



During the last week business has con- 

 tiflwed about normal and the supply 

 has been sufficient to meet all demands. 

 Indications are for a banner Christmas 

 trade already, the shops having begun 

 to take on a holiday appearance, and 

 early orders seem to point to a more 

 general giving of flowers than ever be- 

 fore. It is believed that prices will 

 reach the top notch. 



Funeral work is brisk, some of the 

 firms having had unusually large orders 

 for this work last week, and small 

 weddings, with pre-nuptial affairs, keep 

 all cut stock well cleaned up.
