The Market 



Last week business was quite active. 

 The demand for American Beauties 

 seems to increase, while it is almost im- 

 possible to get the good blooms. Brides 

 and Bridesmaids are more plentiful and 

 the quality good. Some fine Golden 

 Gates are seen in almost every store. 

 Chrysanthemums are everywhere. There 

 are few good pink. Chrysanthemums in 

 pots sell slowly and are cheap, Violets 

 are poor and the supply is short. There 

 seems to be a great demand for bloom- 

 ing plants in pots, but the supply is 

 poor. We noticed quite a few Deutsche 

 Perle azaleas in bud and bloom in one 

 greenhouse. This is quite early for left- 

 over plants. Some fine Easter lilies can 

 be seen in one of the Walnut street 

 stores. Fancy fern leaves are scarce, 

 but smilax is plentiful. Large numbers 

 of cases of wild smilax were shipped 

 from Chicago last week. 



Various Notes. 



Eugene Brua, at the Shawnee Mis- 

 sion, which is three miles southwest of 

 Westport, has two large houses in vio- 

 lets. The flowers are of. rather a small 

 variety and single, but the perfume is 

 sweet. Mr. Brus takes the glass out in 

 summer and it is nailed in without 

 putty in the fall. The plants are grown 

 in solid beds. He seems to have splen- 

 did success. He also grows large quanti- 

 ties of lettuce. His water supply is 

 trom a spring. This means quite a great 

 deal for him, as the weather has been 

 so dry that many florists and gardeners 

 have been hauling water for some time. 



Anderson & Hammarlund, at Forty- 

 seventh street and Belinder avenue, are 

 cutting some fine Richmond roses. They 

 are also growing Bride, Maid and Chate- 

 nay. The soil at their location seems to 

 be first-class. Their carnations are also 

 good. They were planted late on ac- 

 count of the houses not being completed 

 until late in the season. They grow 

 Lawson, Queen Louise, Lady Bountiful 

 and Flamingo. Samuel Murray takes 

 their entire cut of both carnations and 

 roses. 



Miss Dalley's windows are quite full 

 of choice flowers. She handles the entire 

 stock of Mr. Broman, of Independence. 



Miss J. E. Murray had some hand- 

 some chrysanthemums in her window last 

 week and reports business to be fine. 



Jacob Tobler has the sympathy of all 

 the trade on account of the death of his 

 son.
