QUALITY AND STYLE 



FLOWER BOXES 



AT NO GREATER COST 



Quality of material used in addition to the practical and hand- 

 some non-fading shades in which the boards are finished, bring 

 style and distinctiveness to the package.

is not growing any mums this year, 

 but has his entire plant in carnations, 

 with which he has always had good 

 success, growing first-class stock. 



Vennemann Bros., of Kirkwood, will 

 soon commence cutting a big crop of 

 carnations. Their sweet pea crop will 

 come a little later. Brother Gus brings 

 in the daily cut. 



The W. C. Smith Wholesale Floral 

 Co. has brought out its new delivery 

 truck, a Mitchell, all dressed up in its 

 new fall array. Artie, the chauffeur, 

 says morning delivery can now be made 

 in much quicker time. 



Henry Berning received a nice lot 

 of cut mums last week. The varieties 

 were Smith's Advance and Golden 

 Glow, which sold well. Mr. Berning 

 expects a large crop from his con- 

 signors this season. J. J. B. 



DENVEE. 



The Market. 



Denver is having a touch of cold 

 weather, which will most likely put an 

 end to the outdoor stock. Chrysanthe- 

 mums are beginning to arrive. Koses 

 and carnations are good and are coming 

 in large quantities. There are enough 

 lilies to supply the demand. Blooming 

 plants are in good demand. There seems 

 to be a scarcity of white cyclamens, 

 but, aside from these, there are plenty 

 of fine plants to supply all demands. 

 The first mum plants came in last week. 



Various Notes. 



"A number of florists are bowling each 

 Saturday night at the Denver Bowling 

 Alleys, on Champa street. 



Roses and carnations are looking fine 

 at the Elitch-Long Greenhouses. 



The Park Floral Co. has some extra 

 fine cyclamens, begonias and obconicas. 



Most of the growers received their. 

 Holland bulbs last week. 



The Denver Wholesale Florists' Co. is 

 handling some extra fine roses and car- 

 nations. R. S. 



KANSAS CITY. 



The Market. 



The demand has been somewhat 

 irregular during the last two weeks, but 

 on the whole business has been good, 

 showing a big improvement over last 

 month. As always is the case at this 

 season, the cuts are increasing heavily. 

 Prices have not been high; the quality 

 of cut stock has been excellent for the 

 money. 



Roses have been the most abundant 

 item of the indoor stock. The newer

roses, such as Milady, Russell and Kil- 

 larney Brilliant, are plentiful; they 

 bring a good price and attract the re- 

 tail trade. Beauties are plentiful and 

 are increasing in size rapidly. The 

 chrysanthemum market is strong, com- 

 pared with last year, and it is expected 

 that next week will find plenty of them 

 available at reasonable prices. Carna- 

 tions are becoming more plentiful and 

 the demand is rather heavy. Gladioli 

 and dahlias are still in the market. 

 Dahlias took the lead last week in out- 

 door cut stock and the public seemed to 

 like them for a change.
