The Florists' Review 



OCIOBEB 14, 1915. 



MOTT-LY OLEANINaS. 



The Mangelsdorf Bros. Co., of Atchi- 

 son, Kan., has moved its offices to the 

 new wholesale building, where there are 

 better facilities for handling the rapidly 

 increasing business. Frederick Man- 

 gelsdorf is in charge. Carl ^Mangels- 

 dorf will manage the store, under the 

 title of the Seed & Flower Store. 



The item in The Eeview of Septem- 

 ber 30 concerning Northrup, King & 

 Co., Minneapolis, should/ have read 900 

 carloads instead of 900 cartons. While 

 this company handles large numbers of 

 carton packages, the shipment of 900 

 carloads of seed was actually the rec- 

 ord for the season. i 



F. W. Barteldes, of the S&arteldes 

 Seed Co., Lawrence, Kan., says^that a 

 good corn seed crop can be looked for. 



The S. G. Trent Seed Store, of Hia- 

 watha, Kan., was prize-winner at the 

 Panama-Pacific Exposition for Boone 

 County White corn, which- harvested 

 117 bushels per acre. 



The Ross Bros. Seed House, of 

 Wichita, Kan,, supplied many of the 

 seeds that produced the splendid exhib- 

 its entered by Sedgwick county at the 

 recent wheat exposition. The fruit sec- 

 tion was exceptionally well filled. An 

 apple called Wolf King measured fif- 

 teen inches in circumference. Reports 

 from the Rocky Ford, Colo,, district say 

 that melons are not doing well. Vines 

 are much spotted because of the ex- 

 cessive moisture. W. M. 



DUTCH BULBS. 



There were 831 cases of Dutch bulbs 

 aboard the steamer Noordam, which ar- 

 rived from Rotterdam October 7. This 

 ^ipment was considerably smaller 

 than any of the five previous arrivals 

 and indicates that the importations for 

 this year are coming to an end. The 

 shipments usually slacken at this time 

 and cease altogether by the middle of 

 November. The following consign- 

 ments were entered at the OOrt of New 

 York: J^
