is coming slowly, but Encliantross and 

 Matchless com])ose the main crop. 



Orchids are becoming scarce and calls 

 are becoming more numerous. Valley 

 is to be had, but the quality is not at all 

 good at $8 per hundred. Sweet peas 

 are scarce again and arc sold at $2 and 

 $3 per hundred. Stevia is gradually get- 

 ting a little color and will soon be on 

 the market. 



Various Notes. 



At the Mothers' day meeting last 

 week, held by Gypsy Smith, the evan- 

 gelist, about 20,000 flowers were dis- 

 posed of. Those who could not afford to 

 buy were given flowers just the same 

 and, in spite of the liberalitv of all, 

 about $400 Avas cleared. T. E. E. 



DES MOINES, lA. 



The Kirkwood Floral Co. expects to 

 get into its new quarters, on Eighth and 

 Locust streets, about Noveml)er 20. 

 They are planning on making the new 

 place one of the finest in the state. Mr. 

 Holt has spared no expense to make it 

 such. He has obtaineii a long lease on 

 this desirable corner. 



The Beaver Avenue Greenhouses have 

 taken over the lease of George's Rose 

 Gardens and are planning on opening a 

 downtown store. 



The J. S. Wilson Floral Co. lias pur- 

 chased the flower shop from the Alpha 

 Floral Co. This is used as an outlet for 

 surplus stock from the greenhouses. 



Tlie Iowa Seed Co. is cutting some ex- 

 ceptionally fine mums. 



Lozier the Florist r('])orts ;i fine ship- 

 ping business, with the city business 

 confined mostly to funeral work. 



Some excitement was caused by the 

 rush delivery of an out-of-town funeral 

 order made ]>y Chrisiiian the Florist. 

 The order coming in too late for any 

 train service, Mr. Chrismau proceeded 

 to charter a pL-ine and delivered the 

 flowers seventy-five miles away about 

 fifty minutes later. Mr. Chrismau ac- 

 companied tlie flowers and attended to 

 tlie arrangement for the family. Word 

 was phoned ahead of the coming by air- 

 ]ilane, so the entire inhabitants of the 

 small town were out to nu^et the plane.
