of roses and carnations. Prices were 

 extremely reasonable. 



Various Notes. 



John Klaus, of Greenwood, Mo., cut 

 12,000 roses and 12,000 Darwin tulips 

 during Easter week. 



W. S. Dolan, of the American Green- 

 house Mfg. Co., was called back from 

 Iowa for a few days, but returned 

 there April 9 in order to close some 

 deals. Mr. Dolan has an order for two 

 new houses, each 37x150 feet, for the 

 Sapulpa Flower Shop, Sapulpa, Okla. 

 This company now has a retail store 

 and will grow its own stock in the new 

 houses. 



In compliment to the florists of Kan- 

 sas City, Kan., the April meeting of 

 the Florists' Club was held in the 

 Chambftr of Commerce building in that 

 city the evening of April 7. W. S. 

 Dolan, E. A. Humfeld and E. L. 

 Clemens were appointed as a local com- 

 mittee to cooperate with the S. A. F. 

 in its drive for new members. William 

 Wade, secretary, read a letter from .1. 

 F. Animann, secretary of the S. A. F., 

 complimenting the local club on its 

 accomplishments thus far and wishing 

 it success in all undertakings. T. J. 

 Noll, president, mentioned grievances 

 that some of the florists have told liim, 

 chief of which is the selling of flowers 

 at retail by wholesale florists. This 

 was discussed pro and con. Easter 

 business was gone over to some extent 

 and everybody expressed satisfaction 

 with it. It was decided to hold the 

 May meeting at some downtown store 

 and no special program will be ar- 

 ranged, as the date will be so close to 

 Mothers' day. After all business was 

 disposed of, there was music by Miller's 

 orchestra and dancing. 



J. E. Murray & Co. had unusually 

 good business last week, principally 

 funeral work. 



Frank M. Johnson and A. L. Randall, 

 of Chicago, spent a couple of days in 

 the city looking over trade conditions 

 last week. 



With Henry Kusik & Co., April busi- 

 ness has been as good as it was last 

 year, including the Easter business. 

 Wire and supply orders have been a 

 big part of this year's business. 



The obituary of Walter W. Harnden, 

 who died April 5, appears in the 

 obituary column of this issue. 



M. E. Carter, manager of the W. L. 

 Rock Flower Co., is chairman of the 

 Chamber of Commerce's committee to 

 stir up interest in beautifying the city 

 for the American Legion meeting in

AGERATUM, Fraserii 



We feel confident in offering Ageratum "Fraserii" to our customers that we are 

 offering what will be one of the most valuable acquisitions to the bedding plant line in 

 recent years, that is a blue, a decided blue, that would be continually in bloom. In 

 our trial grounds last summer "Fraserii" attracted more attention than any other 

 bedding plant. It only grew about eight to ten inches high and was covered the entire 

 season with what can easily be classed^ as immense trusses of flowers, as many of them 

 were over 2yi inches across, while the individual flower would be Ji of an inch in diame- 

 ter. The plant spread about 12 to 15 inches across. It can easily oe used with Alternan- 

 theras as a border plant. 



Being an early bloomer and dwarf, compact grower, it makes an excellent pot plant. 



2-inch, $1.00 per doz.; $6.00 per 100. 3-inch, $1.S0 per doz.; $10.00 per 100.
