The Florists' Review 



April 7, 1921 



wci'Us with inrtucnza. At the saiue tiiiii' 

 Jut little son, Vincent, had measles. 

 After Easter Mr. Thomas was under the 

 doctor's care for several days. All are 

 recovering. 



E. A. llunifeld's business was double 

 that of Easter in 1920. He v^holesalod 

 some lilies and wished that he had them 

 back wlien he sold out all he had kept 

 for the retail store. Aside from a few 

 hydrangeas and rose plants, all the 

 stock was grown in his greenhouses near 

 Independence. 



The Linwood Floral & Nursery Oo. 

 cleaned up on everything Saturday eve- 

 ning. 



W. J. Barnes received more telegraph 

 orders, both going and coming, than he 

 has on any other holiday. His local 

 business was far ahead of that for 

 Easter a year ago. Two furniture vans 

 supplemented his regular delivery cars. 

 Every fern and palm in his greenhouses 

 was rented for church decorations. Mr. 

 Barnes says he could have sold 250 more 

 lilies if he could have obtained them. 

 Lower prices helped business, he says. 

 The cash sales were double those for 

 any other big holiday. 



R. S. Brown & Son had a heavy Easter 

 business and have been busy since. In- 

 dications point toward a big spring 

 trade in bedding stock. 



"While on his way honie Saturday 

 night, March 26, M. E. Chandler, of the 

 Chandler Landscape & Nursery Co., was 

 caught in a wind storm which was of 

 cyclonic proportions south of the city. 

 The wind shield of his car became so 

 clouded by rain that he stopped and got 

 out. A car going in the opposite direc- 

 tion struck him. He became entangled 

 in some telephone wires, blown down by 

 the storm, and was dragged for some 

 distance before the driver knew that 

 Mr. Chandler had been hit. He was 

 taken home, where it was found that 

 no bones were broken, but he was se- 

 verely bruised and lacerated. He ex- 

 pects to be out in a few davs.
