The Weekly Florists' Review- 



^.i-*'" 



October 5, 1906. 



KANSAS QTY. 



There was a meeting of the committee 

 of florists interested in the approaching 

 flower show at Convention hall on Octo- 

 ber 2 for the purpose of finishing the 

 premium list. L. A. Goodman, who has 

 assumed the superintendence of the show, 

 presided at the meeting. 



Mr. Goodman said concerning the 

 show: "I should say from the great 

 volume of correspondence that has been 

 coming in from the east, as well as else- 

 where, that the show this year is going 

 to be, by great odds, the most successful 

 in every way that has been held here. 

 We shall have every detail as to the 

 premiums arranged soon." 



At the last meeting of the Kansas 

 City Florists' Bowling Club twenty-three 

 members were present. The club now 

 boasts of thirty-six members. Active 

 preparations are under way to entertain 

 visiting florists during the coming flower 

 show. George M. Kellogg has dr>nated 

 a valuable loving cup to be rolled for.
