The Weekly Florists^ Review*

KANSAS QTY. 



The Market 



Trade the past week has been excep* 

 tionally good. Chrysanthemums being 

 nearly all gone, roses and carnations 

 are again in demand. Prices are good 

 and the call for good stuff is brisk. 



Azaleas, lilies and violets are just be- 

 ginning to be seen in the florists' win- 

 dows, which are commencing to put on 

 • a holiday look. The outlook for good 

 business up to the first of the year was 

 never better. 



Various Notes. 



C. M. Wise has started in business at 

 Twenty-fifth and Holmes streets. He 

 has already built one house 20x90 and 

 intends to build two more in the spring. 



W. Ii. Sock has a splendid new wagon 

 in course of construction. 



Walter Troup, formerly assistant dec- 

 orator for Ed Humfeld, has accepted the 

 contract of making holly wreaths for 

 Arthur Newell. Walter is watching the 

 trains looking for the holly to arrive. 



Miss Dalley reports splendid business 

 the past week and is already booking 

 orders for Christmas. 



Jas. Payne, at Union Cemetery, rince 

 taking charg^e of the place has built up a 

 fine trade and is getting fine stock ready 

 for the spring market. 



I hope the boys will not let the chrys- 

 anthemum show next fall slip by. Let us 

 , get the business men interested and pre- 

 pare to make it the best we have ever 

 bad. 



Ed Ellsworth, of G. M. Kellogg 's, is 

 distributing souvenirs to his lady custom- 

 ers in the form of a pad of several blot- 

 ters with a celluloid cover stamped with 

 morning-glories in colors. 



The W. H. Humfeld Floral Co. is fin- 

 ishing up the old year in good style.* 

 They have installed a fine new refriger- 

 ator in their cut fiower room, which is 

 presided over by J. Bingham. 



Lawrence Schwager has opened a new 

 retail store on Grand avenue. 



John Schneider, on Walnut street, is 

 doing a nice business these days. 



B. S. Brown says it is a physical im- 

 possibility for any florist to handle and 

 •Bell over 5,500 mums in a day. He has 

 tried. Narcissus. 



THE FARTHEST NORTH. 



I would like to ask how far north a 

 greenhouse can be made successful, or, 

 more e8i>ecially, be a success in growinc 

 roses, carnations, lilies, etc.t We 

 understand there is the corn belt, wheat 

 belt, etc. These cereals can be grown out- 

 aide of this section, yet with poor re- 

 fiults; climatic conditions vary, seasons 

 too short and failure financially is the 

 result. I have^ seen roses bloom far 

 north in Dakota but not of salable size; 

 stems small and limp; blooms very in- 

 ferior. Can anyone answer this ques- 

 tion! E. O. L.

IT'S NO TROUBLE HERE. 



Ellenville, N. Y.— I haveuied your Fumigat- 

 ing Powder for the past five years in fumigating 

 violets. I find it more efiective than tobacco 

 stems, easier to lue, does not injure the plants 

 or blooms. I have no trouble to keep down the 

 green fly and black aphis, as well as the injurous 

 gail fly. I can recommend it as a good article 

 that will do business always. See page ICZ.
