The Horists' Review 



October 23, Ift;^ 



KANSAS CITY, MO. 



The Market. 



'^ 



Business the last week has been ex- 

 ceptionally good; everybody seemed 

 to have his share of the trade, both 

 retail and wholesale. Funeral work 

 was the prime factor; next to it was 

 decoration work, which seemed to be 

 heavy for an ordinary week. Boses 

 are in good condition; the quality is 

 fine and the demand seems to take care 

 of all that comes to this market. 

 Beauties are in heavy demand, but it 

 is expected that they will be plentiful 

 in a week's time. Mums are selling 

 fast; the call for them is quite heavy, 

 but the supply has more than doubled 

 in the last week, so that it is expected 

 that there will be an oversupply next 

 week. Carnations are coming in with 

 longer stems and better flowers, both 

 in color and size. The demand is away 

 ahead of the supply. 



Various Notes. 



A. Newell says business has been 

 better with him since the fashion show 

 week and last week showed a big in- 

 crease. 



T. Noll has a fine lot of florists' sup- 

 plies that he has just received. His 

 third week of business was far be- 

 yond his expectations, especially in 

 the cut flower department. Business 

 was far ahead of the stock that was 

 consigned to him. 



The Geo. M. Kellogg Flower & Plant 

 Co. had a good run on funeral work 

 last week, most of it on out-of-town 

 orders. 



W. J. Barnes has been busy deep- 

 rating for the last two weeks. He is 

 cutting a fine lot of mums at present 

 and next week will have a fine lot of 

 mum plants in bloom in 6-inch pots. 



J. Austin has been down at Excel- 

 sior Springs for the last three weeks. 



The Apollo Flower Shop has made a 

 change in the window ice-box. They 

 have made the space larger and put 

 large, heavy plate glass mirrors on 

 the sides and back. 



Henry Kusik & Co. had to double 

 their consignment on roses, as they 

 seem to sell well with them. Mums 

 have been scarce with them and they 

 cannot get enough of them. 



Patrick Larkin met with another 

 automobile accident last week and was 

 badly bruised. W, J. B, 



Woodstock, HI. — George Moncur has, 

 in addition to his flower business, a 

 good trade in vegetables. He has at 

 present about 60,000 celery plants, 

 which he sells to Chicago hotels,
