KANSAS CITY, MO. 



The Market. 



The summer lull is here. The gen- 

 eral condition is far from being satis- 

 factory. Many firms have ceased to 

 cut stock and are now devoting much 

 time and energy to rebuilding, or re- 

 pairing the damages of the last winter 

 and early spring tornadoes. Asters are 

 coming along nicely, much to our de- 

 light. The continued hot weather has 

 put sweet peas almost out of the race. 

 Vacations occupy the minds of local 

 people. 



Various Notes. 



An extended trip into the great south- 

 west, including Kansas, Oklahoma, 

 Texas and Mexico, is to be the vacation 

 of Walter Oberg, of the W. L. Rock 

 Flower Co. A study of general plant 

 life is one of the incentives for this 

 trip. He hopes to bring back many pic- 

 'tures that will be of interest to the 

 trade. Mr. Oberg 's health is unsatis- 

 factory and the local tradesmen hope 

 it will be benefited by the trip. Messrs. 

 Miller, Carter, Clark, Titchue and 

 Nagel, of the same firm, left July 15 

 for their vacations. F. Fromhold, of 

 this firm, has returned from the north- 

 ern lakes. Mr. Fromhold says he en- 

 joyed his vacation as much this year as 

 ever before, if not more. Being quite 

 a fisherman, he has many new and in- 

 teresting fish stories. 



Mr. and Mrs. Charles Thomas, of the 

 Kellogg Flower & Plant Co., have re- 

 turned from the Springs and report an 

 enjoyable vacation. Mr. Parker, also 

 of Kellogg 's, spent a couple of days 

 at the Pleasant Hill plant and says 

 that everything is fine and that the 

 work of rebuilding the greenhouses is 

 almost completed. This firm's Beauties 

 have been unusually good this year, 

 but, owing to the rebuilding of the 

 Beauty house, this source of local sup- 

 ply will be closed for some eight to ten 

 weeks. This firm is also remodeling 

 the store at Twelfth street and Grand 

 avenue. The decoration is artistic. 



Eric Frandsen, of Independence, Mo., 

 is busy transplanting the carnations 

 from field to houses. 



The writer paid an extended visit to 

 most of the local growers last week and 

 found the trade in a most encouraging 

 condition; the prospect for the fall and 

 winter business is the best in years. 



F. H. H. 



Findlay, O.— J. J. Waaland has pur- 

 chased the lot adjoining his greenhouses 

 on East Front street, and will erect a 

 rose house there. He will also make 

 a number of other improvements in his 

 greenhouses.
