C. A. KUEHN WHOLESALE FLORIST 



1318 Pine Street, ST. LOUIS, MO. 



Montioii The Rovipw wlien yon write. 



Craig wero appoiiitod a committee to 

 draw up and i)reseiit a suitable resolu- 

 tion to forward to W. F. Gude, Senator 

 Lodge, the postmaster general and 

 others, regretting the decision and, while 

 appreciating the great value of the 

 ])rivileges to florists, ho})ing that by pay- 

 ing an adequate rate which would make 

 it profital)lo to the government, the 

 special delivery system for such highly 

 perishable products as flowers could be 

 continued. It was announced that a 

 further meeting of the committee of 

 retailers and growers would be held 

 December 3. The retailers' committee 

 consists of C. F. Boyle, J. J. O'Brien, 

 William Penn, C. Becker and Sidney 

 Hoffman, while the growers are repre- 

 sented by Andrew Christensen, C. J. 

 Goddard, E. A. Peirce, John McFarland. 

 Edward Woods and W. C. Stickel. The 

 meeting did not ad.iourn until 11 p. m. 

 and proved to be the best yet held by 

 the association. 



Various Notes. 



JJetail l)uying in the wholesale flower 

 markets ])roved to be the real factor 

 for Thanksgiving. November 22, the 

 writer saw dozens of buyers, mostly 

 ladies, wliose jjurchascs were all the way 

 from 50 cents to $'j and $1(1. Bunch 

 clirysanthemums were mostly purchased 

 and one conservative estimate was that 

 about $4,000 worth of flowers were dis- 

 posed of in this way. 



William H. Elliott states that prices 

 realized for roses for Thanksgiving were 

 (|nite satisfactory. Hadley led in value, 

 ••loselj' followed by Crusader; then came 

 Columbia, Mme. Butterfly, Oplielia and 

 Pilgrim. The average for all roses sold 

 was n.7 cents per flower. Prices before 

 Thanksgiving week for roses had also 

 been quite satisfactory. The man with 

 good stock and a competent salcsmrni 

 could secure good prices even wlien busi- 

 ness was somewhat depressed. 



William T. Walke, of Salem, has a 

 grand liouse of poinsettias for Christ- 

 mas. Some are in pots, many in pans; 

 many bracts are already fifteen inches 

 across and plants have foliage right 

 down to tlie pot. Mr. Walke also has an 

 excellent house of cyclamens in ji fine 

 range of colors, salmon pink i>redoniinat- 

 ing. 



At Penn's, Thanksgiving trade was 

 good, coming within five per cent of last 

 year's holiday total. Chrysanthemums 

 were leaders, but all flowers sold well, 

 including a great numlier of Hudson 

 river double violets. There was a 

 great sale of ]iot plants. This week a 

 fine window feature is -An arbor of well 

 fruited grapes; the bunches (wax) of 

 • iros Colman, Duke of Buccdeugh and 

 Muscat are so well done as to deceive 

 even experts.
