The Weekly Florists' Review* 



SAN FRANCISCO. 



The Market. 



Business holds on fairly well consider- 

 ing that June is supposed tu be our quiet 

 month. The weather has been very cool 

 for the last two weeks and flowers, par- 

 ticularly roses, are in better color and 

 form than for some time past, (ai na- 

 tions are good, but very cheap. Estelle, 

 Prosperity, Lawson and most of the 

 fancy varieties wholesale at $2 per 

 hundred. Flora Hill. Ethel Crocker, 

 America, Mrs. Bradt, E. Schwerin, Mrs. 

 Joost, Win. Scott and such sorts whole- 

 sale at from $1 to $1.50 per hundred. 

 American Beauties bring from 75 cents 

 to $2 per dozen. Brides and Maids fetch 

 25 to 75 cents and Kaiserin and Liberty 

 from 25 to 50 ceuts per dozen. Outdoor 

 stock is very plentiful and is in fair de- 

 mand, but the bulk of it is disposed of 

 to the sidewalk merchants, of whom Sau 

 Francisco has a large share. Outdoor 

 lu-i- aie somewhat past their prime and 

 we shall not hstve another good crop until 

 fall. 



Notes. 



The California State Floral Society met 

 June 15, with Professor Emory Smith in 

 the chair. Theodore llittell read a paper 

 on "The Acorn and the Oak," and the 

 preservation of the oaks in California 

 wa> the principal topic of the day. The 

 society received a letter from President 

 Roosevelt, thanking the members for the 

 ".in of golden poppies on the occasion 

 of his recent visit. 



John Gill, of West. Berkeley, well 

 known as the largest rose grower on the 

 coast, is at present on a visit to Southern 

 California. 



John Breeu will have charge of the 

 large greenhouses now in the course of 

 erection at Burlingame for P. C. Meyer. 

 They have contracted for a large lot of 

 field-grown roses for forcing and it is the 

 intention to force about 20,000 chrysan- 

 themums for this coming season. G. 



KANSAS CITY. 



Business is now in the good old sum- 

 mer way. except for an occasional good 

 funeral order or a wedding job. Sweet 

 peas are plentiful and good and sell 

 well, roses and carnations are off color 

 and small. 



A. F. Barbe will elose his downtown 

 store for the summer. 



Arthur Newell has bought another 

 horse, which he thinks is Pat's equal or 

 better. 



J. S. Short, of Kansas City, Kans., 

 reports that there is always something 

 doing over at bis place across the Kaw. 



Geo. M. Kellogg, of Pleasant Hill, Mo., 

 reports the loss of a barn by lightning 

 and fire Sunday. L. M. S. 



Santa Cruz, Cat..— Mr. Luther Bur- 

 bank, of Santa Rosa, has been here the 

 past week, recuperating from an attack 

 of la grippe. He says that among his 

 nov.hies for next year is an improved 

 form of the Shasta daisy, with flowers 

 fully double the size of the original of 

 the type. He lias also a double form of 

 this daisy. Among fruits his leading 

 novelty is a race of plums that have no 

 stones. On the occasion of the concert 

 ,, the publii library on the 19th inst. 

 interesting' di-plavs of plants and flowers 

 were made in the library rooms by Thos. 

 Thompson, K. Leedham, Dr. Parker and 

 others.
