mium, both wholesale and retail. As 

 our schools had adopted this flower and 

 color at the last hour, the local mer- 

 chants were caught unprepared. Beau- 

 ties were fair, both in quality and quan- 

 tity, and found plenty of buyers, many 

 florists using them instead of Eichmond. 



Gladioli made their appearance and 

 made a fine showing. Buyers seemed 

 glad to see them again and bought read- 

 ily, paying 10 cents for good stock. 

 Eeference must be made to the Francis 

 King variety; they were without doubt 

 par excellence. Valley and sweet peas 

 were plentiful, but, as weddings are nu- 

 merous, they sold quickly. On the 

 whole, everyone is more than pleased 

 with the week's business. 



Though it is late to speak of Decora- 

 tion day business, local florists want 

 special mention of the fact that this 

 year was the "best ever." Plants be- 

 came so scarce that good ones were 

 hardly to be seen or had at any price. 

 The same can be said of cut flowers, 

 with the exception of peonies. 



Various Notes. 



June gives promise of being really 

 the month of weddings. Among the 

 many big wedding decorations, one of 

 the biggest and best was by the W. L. 

 Eock Flower Co. Charles Heite, of this 

 firm, has gone to Pleasant Hill, Mo., to 

 spend some time in fishing, and W. L. 

 Eock has gone to Lake View, Kan., with 

 the same sport in mind. The firm's old 

 store, at 1116 Walnut street, will be 

 given up July 1. 



James A. Biggam reports a most satisr 

 factory business, having many orders^ 

 and enough good stock so as to be fully, 

 equal to the occasion. ^^-/ 



Mrs. Edith Eoberts, of the Ge*). M. 

 Kellogg Flower & Plant Co., has gone 

 to visit her daughter, Mrs. E. Anderson, 

 at Los Angeled, Cal. The Kellogg Co. 

 reports a good business. The new man- 

 ager, Mr. Parker, is making good and 

 there is an increasing balance on the 

 right side of the ledger. 



Henry Kusik & Co. say that business 

 shows a good general improvement.
