The Florists' Review 



November 30, 1916. 



Xmas Wreaths 



Made from evergreens and red ruscus; 

 huckleberry sprays, Oregon grape and red 

 cedar. These are great sellers and will 

 bring more than double the price I ask. 

 East of the mountains, 40c each, $4.00 per 

 doz. I sell hundreds of these every Xmas 

 in Tacoma. Try some and you will not 

 be sorry. Also huckleberry sprays, will 

 keep for weeks, 50-lb. case, $5.00. Fine 

 dagger fern sprays, $1.00 per thousand; 

 per case of 5000, $4.00. This is all A-1 

 stock. Cash, please. Order early.

of the single ones come from the south. 

 Cyclamens are plentiful, and potted 

 mums sell fairly well. There are quan- 

 tities of ferns, but they do not sell any 

 too briskly. 



Various Notes. 



The mother of H. B. Slauson, after 

 being an invalid for some time, entered 

 into her rest November 15. She was 

 84 years of age. 



Henry Benthien & Son, Louis 

 Tschunko and George Seaverns, Tacoma 

 florists, have been visiting their friends 

 in the trade here. 



The Aabling-Boyce Co. has installed 

 a cut flower and plant department, using 

 the front part of the seed store for 

 that purpose. 



Charles Malmo has taken over the 

 salesyards at Fourth and Virginia 

 streets and is selling the usual lines of 

 nursery stock. He has also opened a 

 seed emporium in the new Westlake 



market. » tt -d 



Announcement of the death of H. B. 

 Burdett, who was fighting for the Allies 

 in France, has just been received.

The Market. 



Although last week was close to 

 Thanksgiving, business held up well. Tlie 

 principal floral feature was the opening, 

 November 20, of the new marble palace 

 of the First National bank, which used 

 all the available first-class stock. Carna- 

 tions and locally grown violets were 

 scarce. The demand for violets was 

 met by shipments from California, but 

 the supply of carnations was greatly 

 short of the demand. Several carnation 

 growers have cut but few flowers, and it 

 is likely that the shortage will continue 

 untU after the holidays. Changing from 

 Enchantress and other early-blooming 

 varieties to those which come in later 

 account's, to some extent, for this condi- 

 tion. 



In mums, Eaton, Dr. Enguehard, Mrs. 

 Jerome Jones and the pompons are in 

 their prime. A few Maud Dean have 

 come in. The cut of roses is normal for 

 the season; JHadJey, Ophelia, Hoosier 

 Beauty and Mrs. Chas. Eussell leading. 

 Cattleya labiata is producing well and 

 furnishes a supply sufficient to meet all 

 demands.

Florists : 



What stock have you 



for sale to the trade? 

 Is it moving as it should? 

 No? 



Then tell the trade abont 

 it by nsing the Pacific Coast 

 Pages of The Review. 



Pacific Coast advertisers al- 

 most invariably report good 

 results. Like this: 



Say I That ad's a bomdlncer for tettlnc tlit 

 business.— Everett Floral Co., Everett, Wash. 



I sold all the Mum cuttinrs advertised, and yon 

 will not bear from me again until I can get soma 

 more stock ready. Shall root 100.000 Carnation 

 cuttings for next season, as I know The Review 

 will sell them for me.— Frank Wilhelm, Los An- 

 geles, Cal. 



Flease cut out of our advertisement in The Bm- 

 view the cyclamen seedlings. We sold all onr 

 surplus cyclamen seedlings as a direct resnlt of 

 our advertisement in your paper.— Spokana 

 Qreenhouses (Inc.), Spokane, Wash. 



We want to say that our last advertisement in 

 The Review brought us orders from both the At- 

 lantic and Pacific coasts. We had, strantely 

 enough, on following days, orders from Salem, 

 Ore., and from Salem, Mass.— State Floral Co.. 

 North Yakima. Wash. 



We are well pleased with the results obtained 

 by advertising in the Pacific Coast Department of 

 The Review. We sold out clean and refused 

 many orders. The Review surely gives retolta. 

 —Van Slyke & Seamons, Tacoma, Wash. 



The transient rate for space 

 is $1 .25 per inch per insertion. 

 Those who have stock to offer 

 all or a considerable part of 

 the year around shonld write 

 for contract rates.
