KANSAS CITY, MO. 



The Market. 



Business is as good as can be ex- 

 pected, with no great change in the 

 market conditions. Funeral orders are 

 steady and everybody seems to have his 

 share of the work along that line. Car- 

 nations are still plentiful and are sell- 

 ing at a normal price. The red ones 

 seem to be rather scarce compared with 

 the white and pink shades. Boman 

 hyacinths and Paper Whites are plenti- 

 ful. Snapdragons and freesias are also 

 abundant and seem to be in demand. 

 Boses are scarce in all colors, especially 

 the Bichmonds. The Killarneys are 

 bringing a good pricej though the stock 

 is only fair. Sweet peas are selling at 

 a fair price. Tulips, hyacinths and jon- 

 quils have commenced to come in rather 

 heavily, and this will mean a decline 

 in the price of all stock. Pot plants 

 seem to continue in favor with the 

 public. 



Various Notes. 



E. D. Ellsworth has a fine lot of 

 tulips and daffodils in bloom. He sells 

 a great many pans of daffodils. He also 

 has a choice lot of crabapple and rho- 

 dodendrons, which he imported from 

 Holland. 



Henry Kusik & Co. are receiving a 

 fine lot of carnations. They also have 

 some nice roses coming in each day, but 

 not enough to meet the demand. 



The George M. Kellogg Flower & 

 Plant Co. has had lots of funeral 

 work this week. The firm finds roses 

 extremely scarce at j^resent. 



Mr. Carter, of the Bock Flower Co., 

 is back at work again and says that 

 the firm had a splendid run of business 

 last week. 



The Peterson Floral Co. reports busi- 

 ness as being excellent since the holi- 

 days. Mr. Kane was on jury service 

 last week. 



S. Murray has a fine lot of lilac. He 

 is flowering some at present which look 

 especially good. 



A. Newell always has a good display 

 in his windows and it takes a lot of 

 stock to keep them filled, for the space 

 is large. 



W. J. Barnes put in the decorations 

 at Convention hall for the lumbermen 's 

 convention. W. J. B. 



Irondequoit, N. Y. — Mrs. J. M. Pen- 

 dleton has gone out of business, the 

 farm having been sold for division into 

 building lots. Mrs. Pendleton had 

 made more than a local reputation as 

 a grower of asters for the cut flower 

 markets. She now is living in Boches- 

 ter.

THE 



HERALD 



NO MERCHANT carries last year styles, and you 

 would not care for old styles; therefore, your 

 customers demand new varieties of Carnations 

 of the Better Kind, and it is up to you to furnish 

 them with up-to-date novelties such as our New 

 Scarlet Carnation 



THE HERALD 



Besides, this is a money proposition : The Herald will 

 produce at least one-third more blooms than any other 

 scarlet: early, free and continuous bloomer; stem long 

 and always stiff; flowers large, full and of a clear, even 

 shade of scarlet; calyx absolutely non-bursting, making 

 it the highest type of a commercial carnation and one of 

 greatest value to you. All cuttings strong and well rooted.

STANDARD VARIETIES READY 



We are propagating from flowering stems only, not from cut back stock. 

 Propagating from stem cuttings only insures perfect health , 

 and the most free-tlowering qualities. 



Renew your standard varieties by gfetting: healthy 

 cuttins^s from the stock that produced the blooms 

 which won more prizes at the fall exhibitions than 

 were won by the flowers of any other s^rower.
