of B. A. Adams, formerly of Fayotte- 

 \ ille, Ark., one of a trio of brothers who 

 have made a .success of the florists' busi- 

 ness in Kayetteville. Mr. Adams lias 

 had a wide experience in the making of 

 •■(trsage bou(]uets, funeral designs and 

 all sorts of interior and exterior floral 

 decoration work. 



The front of the retail store has been 

 i-oiiverted into a flower siiop, and in the 

 basement arrangements liave been made 

 for caring for the wholesale trade. Here 

 long worktables and a large built-in re- 

 frigerator have been installed to facili- 

 tate the handling of flowers. 



Potted plants of all kinds, ferns, cut 

 tliiwers, including roses, carnations and 

 various flowers in their season, will bo 

 featured in this new department.

How a KnoxviUe Jeweler 

 Says to Say It 



If you doubted for a minute that "Say It with 



Flowers" has gone over big, all over the country, 



you have but to travel a bit and see its evidence 



everywhere. 



Everybody seems to be imitating it by trying to say 



something with something or other. 



Was in Knoxville, Tennessee, in February, and 

 walking along the street came to the leading jew- 

 eler's window. 



In the center was a beautiful collection of gems in 

 rings and other adornments. 



On either side of them was a beautiful silver vase, 

 each holding some choice roses. 



A daintily lettered little sign said: "First say it with 

 flowers, then keep it said with gems." 



When 1 came back to New York, I promptly passed 



along the idea to a Fifth Avenue jeweler. 



Just naturally he bought his roses of me, and has 



kept on buying ever since. 



Which may or may not be an idea for you.

nienienients and .June weddings should 

 keep the trade busy to June 15, the end 

 of the social season. Throughout last 

 week prices came down considerably on 

 all cut stock and in all grades. For 

 Memorial day there was a large cut of 

 peonies of extra good quality and large 

 shipments of cape jasmines from Texas. 

 Roses in all varieties have been more 



than the trade can consume, while «>x- 

 tra fancies alone hold up in price, ('ar 

 n:itions show the effects of the hot 

 weather and the blooms are becoming 

 sni.iller. I'rices have been cut down 

 low, in order to clean up the d.-iily shi])- 

 ments. Sweet peas are scarte in the 

 fiuicy grades, but short-stem med stock 

 is arriving in great quantiti.- i^rladiolus
