The Florists' Review 



February 1, 1917, 



large flowers shown. There have been 

 a great number of funerals, perhaps 

 more than usual, and floral tokens have 

 been used to a greater extent than they 

 have been for several years. 



Various Notes. 



The Tonseth Floral Co. has arranged 

 to keep permanently the premises it 

 used for the holidays and the partition 

 has been removed, doubling the space 

 occupied previously. A better oppor- 

 tunity for display and more room for 

 customers is gained by the change. 



Martin & Forbes Co. is cutting a fine 

 lot of orchids. 



Rahn & Herbert Co. is cutting some 

 calendulas, flowers not often seen on 

 this market in midwinter. 



Clarke Bros., A. F. Lalane, S. G. Lub- 

 liner, E. R. Chappell and Niklas & Son, 

 proprietors of the five flower stores on 

 Morrison street, all report business good. 

 The five stores are all in the downtown 

 district, between Fourth and Eleventh 

 streets. 



The nurserymen are busy lifting and 

 shipping stock. J. B. Pilkington re- 

 ports a satisfactory business so far this 

 season. S. W. "W. 



SPOKANE, WASH. 



The Market. 



The rush of business which continued 

 during tlio weeks following the holi- 

 days now is showing a tendency to re- 

 lax a little. Business, however, is still 

 good and about as much as can 

 be easily and conveniently handled. 

 Stock is not plentiful and the quality is 

 just ordinary. Home-grown roses are 

 practically out of the market, but good 

 stock is being received from eastern 

 sources. The shipped-in stock has good 

 keeping qualities; in many cases it is 

 in the carriers' hands from fifty to 

 seventy-two hours. Carnations are of 

 fair quality and in supply hardly equal 

 to demand. Bulbous stock is fair but 

 scarce, Golden Spurs, Paper Whites and 

 freesias being about the only items of- 

 fered. The delay in bulb shipments 

 last year is responsible for the stock's 

 late appearance. 



Various Notes. 



Bornson & Halle are cutting good 

 sweet peas with stems from sixteen to 

 twenty-four inches long. Stems over 

 twenty inches are common with this 

 firm. They are trying out Carnation 

 Aviator this year and speak highly of 

 it. Tliey are propagating this variety 

 heavily and intend to plant it exten- 

 sively another year. 



Donart & Stapleton report business 

 good, so good that Mr. Donart is prac- 

 tically quitting the production of cu- 

 cumliors and tomatoes nt his vegetable 

 range and is devoting the space to flow- 

 ers, to supply the retail store trade. 

 He is contemplating the erection of 

 another range of houses just outside 

 the city of Coeur d 'Aleno, Idaho. 



A call at the store of the Spokane 

 Florist Co. found the force busy. The 

 windows wore bright with genistas, 

 jonquils and yellow tulips. 



Superintendent of Parks .Tohn W. 

 Duncan was the principal speaker at 

 the annual banquet of the Spokane 

 Robert Burns Society. Mr. Duncan, a 

 Scotchman and a great admirer of the 

 Scotch poet, was well qualified to per- 

 form the task asked of him.
