mi The Weekly Florists^ Review* 



October 26, 1906. 



KANSAS QTY. 



The Market, 



This locality was visited by a kill- 

 ing frost this week, that destroyed most 

 of the outdoor flowers, which will make 

 a better demand for cut flowers and inci- 

 dentally boost prices a little. There was 

 a shortage of white flowers the first of 

 the week, the demand for white roses 

 and carnations being much greater than 

 the supply. The early chrysanthemums 

 are coming in, and some very good stock 

 is being cut, which is finding a ready 

 sale at fair prices. The horse show had 

 HO perceptible efl:ect on the trade. 



Various Notes. 



Jaines Bigham has returned from a 

 business trip to Chicago and Milwaukee. 



Miss J. E. Murray says that she had 

 a very good business this week. 



A. F. Barbe has a range of the finest 

 roses we have seen this season. He has 

 a house that he is carrying over the sec- 

 ond year that are fine. Mr. Barbe sells 

 all hiq stock at the greenhouse to his re- 

 tail trade. 



Kansas City is to have a new florist 

 establishment. C. A. Shaeflfer, the pro- 

 prietor of the Kansas City Floral Co., 

 has formed a partnership with Theodore 

 Kahma and James Bigham. They have 

 leased a large store and basement on 

 Walnut street, where they will do a 

 wholesale and retail business. The ground 

 floor will be devoted to the retail busi- 

 ness and the wholesale department will 

 occupy the basement. A general line of 

 florists' supplies as well as cut flowers 

 will be handled. Mr. Bigham, who is to 

 be the manager of the new concern, has 

 just returned from Chicago, where he let 

 the contract for the installment of a 

 large refrigerator, 9x17 feet. The retail 

 room will be handsomely decorated and 

 t\iey will cater to the best trade. The firm 

 will open for business about the twelfth 

 of next month and will be the largest 

 concern in the city in this line. Mr. 

 Shaeffer is now in NeW York ordering 

 stock. 



Lawrence Swayger is absent from his 

 store on account of sickness.
