THE CONQUEROR RIBBON PLANT 



Neither good ribbons nor reputations are raised upon bushes, but must be made. 



The perfection of our or|s;anization makes possible the production and distribu- 

 tion of ribbons especially woven and blended for florists' use. 



The practice of purchasing dry goods ribbons for floral purposes is, thanks to 

 us, undergoing a radical change. We produce beautiful lustrous goods especially 

 woven and blended for the embellishment of flovrers. 



Endorsed by America's representative florists. 



CAUTION— Always look for the above label in conjunction with the word "CONQUEROR."

LOOMIS, CAL. 



Tlie California Caniatioii Co. has 

 .50.000 carnations in the field, all doing 

 nicely. They commenced to plant out 

 the last week in February. The Loomis 

 Floral Co. has planted out 25,000, and 

 the Knoll Nursery has connncnced to 

 plant out. Tlie latter concern has a 

 great many Shasta daisies growing for 

 the production of seed. Mr. Pendleton 

 will erect 5.000 square feet of glass 

 soon. The stock of carnation plants is 

 in the field. This makes four establish- 

 ments in Loomis in the wholesale carna- 

 tion cutting business. California alone 

 >ises clase to 4.000.000 rooted carnation 

 cuttings a year, and tlic states west of 

 Colorado use about 10,000.000. This, 

 no doubt, will be news to many. And 

 the trade in California and the far west 

 is certainly in its infancj". M.

The Central Mieliianii Nursery Co. did 

 a. large business at Easter and are well 

 pleased with the expansion in their trade 

 since moving into their new store on 

 ifain street. Among their Easter plants 

 were some Crimson Rambler roses eight 

 feet high, of fine shape and in full bloom 

 that brought fancy prices. They were 

 foi'cecl in theii' own greenhouses. The 

 firm is now Ijuildina: 12.000 feet of new 

 glass. 



Fred JIarker is preparing to add more 

 glass to his establishment. 



John Calder's business is improving 

 steadily and he anticipates a prosperous 

 season this year. C.
