The Weekly Florists^ Review* 



JuLt 20, 1905. 



KANSAS QTY. 



The Market 



An unusually hot week, with the mer- 

 cury hovering around 90 degrees, to- 

 gether with the flitting of society belles 

 and beaux to cooler climates, caused a 

 stagnation in business in most of the 

 stores. 



There is very little good stock on the 

 market. Eoses are email and off color. 

 Carnations do not hold up well, the ex- 

 cessive heat causing them to go to sleep 

 very quickly, and it is an impossibility 

 to get even fair prices. Sweet peas and 

 outdoor flowers are getting scarce and 

 of very poor quality and it is almost 

 impossible to clear things up. A few 

 funerals of well known people helped 

 some of the stores. There is still quite 

 a demand for pot plants, such as ferns, 

 palms, begonias and rubbers. A few 

 weddings the latter part of the month 

 will give some of the decorators some- 

 thing to do, but we have reached our 

 summer level and quiet business may be 

 looked for from now on. 



Various Notes. 



Jacob Tobler is winding up his spring 

 business preparatory to taking a few 

 weeks' vacation and he is fixing up his 

 fishing tackle, with which he intends to 

 Cfftch a goodly share of the finny tribe. 



R. S. Brown & Son are tearing down 

 some of their houses on Prospect avenue 

 and putting up some fine houses at their 

 Maywood place. Their increasing busi- 

 ness necessitated an increase in room. 



E. A. Humfeld has some of the finest 

 mums your correspondent has ever seen 

 here, planted on his benches, and we pre- 

 dict for him a banner crop. 



W. L. Rock is finishing some very fine 

 houses at his place and contemplates 

 extensive improvements in the near fu- 

 ture. 



Kansas City will be represented at the 

 convention next month at Washington, a 

 number having expressed their intention 

 of being present. What is the matter 

 with this city next year? 



Quite a number of hallway florists 

 have dropped out of business the past 

 week, not being able to stand the pres- 

 sure of poor business, but with the ad- 

 vent of cooler weather we can look for 

 them again. 



Miss M. Dalley seems to be doing quite 

 a nice business, even in these dull times, 

 having one of the best locations, coupled 

 with untiring energy. 



D. Freudenthal is also doing a nice 

 business at his store, and, together with 

 handling his local trade, keeps the ma- 

 jority of the stores here supplied.

NEW ORLEANS. 



The New Orleans Horticultural So- 

 ciety holds an annual outing of greater 

 duration than the trips of the trade or- 

 ganizations of the northern cities. Thia 

 year it was to Grand Isle, in the Gulf, 

 and began early Saturday morning, end- 

 ing late Monday evening. The date was 

 July 8 to 10. This is the way the 

 Picayune's star reporter led off a two- 

 column account of the affair: 



Where melancholy bayous wend through 

 reedy banks a sluggish course to the rest- 

 less sea; where shallow lakes toss whltecaps 

 In the salty breeze; where the cry of the wild 

 bird Is ever to be heard, and where the very 

 atmosphere seems to breathe of the earth 

 primeval, twenty-three members of the New 

 Orleans Hortlcultulral Society and seven of 

 their guests spent the better part of Satur- 

 day, and as the first hours of a new day were

addlni; their mite to make up the grreatness 

 of time's score, from the main deck of a 

 stanch little steamer the excursionists made 

 out in the shadowy darkness the snowy crest 

 of the ocean billows, heard the crashing of 

 the deluge on the distant beach, and so 

 came to their journey's end 



There are many unfamiliar sights on 

 such a trip as this and the affair was 

 hugely enjoyed. President H. PapworLh 

 and Vice-president Charles Eble were un- 

 able to make the trip, and in their ab- 

 sence Secretary C. E. Panter was the 

 presiding officer. With Mr. Panter as 

 sort of master of ceremonies was Rich- 

 ard Eichling, manager for U. J. Virgin. 

 At Saturday morning's breakfast the 

 toll was called and the following mem- 

 bers of the society were found to be pres- 

 ent: Mr. Panter, John Eblen, treasurer; 

 Richard Eichling, C. W. Eichling, J. H.
