My Original SILVER PINK SNAPDRAGON 



is reaching every part of the globe. It is traveling upon its record and good looks, and 

 has more admirers than all other antirrhinums combined. There may be an occa- 

 sional pleasing sport, but aside from this, seedlings will have every characteristic of 

 their illustrious parent— the FAMOUS SILVER PINK. It is a dUtinct type, and 

 is best described by the original name that we grave it. Its soft, silvery shade of pink is nbt found in 

 any other flower, and is at its best in full sunshine, both indoors and out. Silver Pink has an estab- 

 lished record. Plant it and you will have the best. It is truly a hish-class nov«ltyi and we offer 

 it at small cost. 



Price of seed— my own growing— $1.00 per packet of over 600 seeds; 8 packets, |2.50. delivered. 

 Can still supply plants for bedding at $3.00 per 100. 200 for $5.00, by express. Cash must accompany 

 all orders.

KANSAS CITY, MO. 



Tlie Market. 



Spring is here and the weather in gen- 

 eral is fine, the warmth bringing the 

 shrubbery and trees along rapidly. 

 Lilacs are in leaf and peach trees in 

 bloom, and some shade trees have 

 started to leaf. Business for last week 

 has been moderate, funeral work taking 

 the lead by a large margin. Decorating 

 picked up last week. There is an over- 

 supply of carnation stock. White is 

 the only kind moving to any extent, 

 while there are some fine red and pink 

 that are hard to move, even at a low 

 price. Roses are more plentiful, and 

 the market here just about cleans them 

 up. The medium grade ones are the 

 best sellers. Cut lilies are not moving 

 so fast as was expected. Activity in 

 other bulbous stock is only fair. Jon- 

 quils, daffodils and pink double tulips 

 have the best of it in the bulb line. 

 Sweet peas and snapdragons are com- 

 ing in, but the sale is not up to ex- 

 pectations.
