KANSAS CITY, MO. 



The Market. 



Last week, with its Thanksgiving 

 trade, was an especially busy one for 

 the florists. Stock was plentiful and 

 chrysanthemums, roses and carnations 

 were at the top notch in price. Owing 

 to the football game between Missouri 

 and Kansas, the yellow and red mums 

 were in great demand. 



Various Notes. 



Samuel Murray, who has one of the 

 finest cut flower stores in the west, re- 

 ports that business was rushing for 

 Thanksgiving, He also has two houses 

 of exceptionally fine begonias. 



Mrs. Emma Elberfield has opened a 

 new cut flower store at 1016 Walnut 

 street and reports business good. 



C. L. Besser has some nice cyclamens 

 and begonias for Christmas and reports 

 a good Thanksgiving trade. 



At the Rosary business was rushing 

 for Thanksgiving. Some fine poinset- 

 tias are grown here, with some of the 

 flowers twenty inches across. This con- 

 cern also shows nice begonias. The 

 houses are heated with fuel oil.

Dana E. Herron held a formal open- 

 ing of his new store on Saturday, No- 

 vember 19, and he estimated that there 

 were about 7,000 callers. The decora- 

 tions and furnishings are entirely of 

 his own designing, and are as perfect 

 and attractive as any I have seen on 

 my travels. The decorations are in 

 white and green. There is a white steel 

 ceiling, from which white satin striped 

 paper extends down to a pretty gilt 

 molding, and the rest of the wall is fin- 

 ished with moss green burlap. 



Behind the marble serving counter, 

 mirrors are arranged along the wall for 

 twenty-five feet, ending in an elaborate 

 ribbon showcase. The showcase is a 

 model, the upper part consisting of one 

 large sheet of plate glass, raised by a 

 dainty glass handle, and the back of 

 the case is a mirror, covering it entirely. 

 The lower part of the case consists of 

 a series of drawers, which also have 

 artistic handles. 



The floor is covered with dark green 

 linoleum. One side wall is almost con- 

 cealed by white enameled shelving, filled 

 with pretty jardinieres. 



The renovation of the store cost Mr. 

 Herron about $3,000. The citizens of
