KANSAS CITY, MO. 



The Market. 



With the approach of July the heavy 

 part of the work is over for the sum- 

 mer. Inventories are being taken and 

 books are being balanced for the year. 



As the weather has not been warm 

 enough to drive people to vacation re- 

 sorts in any great numbers thus far, 

 entertaining has been heavy at the coun- 

 try clubs through this month and reser- 

 vations have been made for many dates 

 for the coming month. Funeral work 

 has been heavy of late. Orders have 

 been on a generous scale. The handling 

 of business has been easy, as stock has 

 been good and plentiful. Outdoor stock 

 is in good condition. 



Various Notes. 



Mrs. Max Chandler, of Jerome, Mich., 

 is visiting her brother, T. J. Noll. Mr. 

 Noll and his two children, Dorothy and 

 Arthur, and Mrs. Chandler will leave 

 June 30 for a motor trip to Chicago. 

 From there they will go to Michigan, 

 where the children will spend the sum- 

 mer with Mr. and Mrs. Chandler. Mr. 

 NoU will spend two or three weeks in 

 the ea^t, visiting New York, Philadel- 

 phia and other places. 



The Bennett Greenhouses are being 



stocked with ferns. Mr. and Mrs. Ben- 

 nett will devote their attention entirely 

 to this line. They are looking for a 

 location where they will have room for 

 more stock. 



The Pinehurst Floral Co. will enter- 

 tain the florists of both Kansas City, 

 Mo., and Kansas City, Kan., at a picnic 

 at Pleasant Hill, Mo., July 4. The pic- 

 nic last year was such a success that the 

 Pinehurst Floral Co. decided to make it 

 an annual affair. The greenhouses are 

 between thirty-five and forty miles 

 from Kansas City, with good roads all 

 the way, and many will drive down. A 

 program will be given and refreshments 

 will be served. 



O. W. Longnickel's greenhouses, at 

 Argentine, are in the path of a new 

 boulevard being planned by the city. 

 If his property is taken by the city, he 

 will buy at another location and put up 

 larger houses.
