The Florists' Review 



Sbptbmbbb 6, 1917. 



She reports a splendid shipping de- 

 mand for asters and is sending out 

 many early chrysanthemums. At her 

 store on Hyde street business is well up 

 to expectations. Mr, Gootch is calling 

 on the trade in many cities on the trip 

 home. 



The California Floral Co. is supply- 

 ing a good demand for basket arrange- 

 ments of zinnias, snapdragons and other 

 outdoor flowers. Many combination 

 baskets of flowering plants and ferns 

 are also sold. 



F. C. Burns, of San Eafael, Cal., is 

 offering a special prize for a name for 

 his new red seedling dahlia, the prize to 

 be awarded the last day of the dahlia 

 show at the Palace hotel. 



"Heine" Cooper, of Joseph's, is 

 going to Sacramento, Cal., for the Na- 

 tive Sons' celebration. He is chairman 

 of the joint San Francisco committees. 

 A. Cuneo has returned to duty after a 

 pleasant vacation on his uncle's ranch 

 near Santa Cruz. This completes vaca- 

 tions at the Joseph establishment, with 

 the exception of Manager Fred Ber- 

 trand. Business is brisk, according to 

 Mr. Bertrand. 



Capt. F. E. Gray, Civil war veteran 

 and ' well-known florist, decorator and 

 landscape artist of Los Angeles, Cal., 

 arrived in this city a few days ago to 

 attend to preliminary arrangements for 

 a land show to be held here later in the 

 year. He is making his headquarters at 

 ithe Masonic club through the courtesy 

 of Fred J. Bertrand, manager of 

 Joseph's.

 the trade in the interests of Bayersdor-

 certificate as the Visitacion Valley Nur-

 reports stock good and business active. 

 He is looking forward to the promised 

 increased supply of orchids in another 

 week or two. 



Frank Thatcher, of Pelicano, Eossi & 

 Co., notes many sales of cut flowers to 

 young oflScers in the army. Army wed- 

 dings are an important item also. While 

 not elaborate as a rule, each one re- 

 quires more or less flowers. A. J. Eossi 

 is recuperating in southern California. 



Emil Stappenbeck, manager of Charles 

 Stappenbeck's store, on Polk street, has 

 returned to duty after a month's vaca- 

 tion. His brother expects to have a 

 fine crop of roses in about a month.

 man in Sacramento, Cal., is spending a 

 two weeks' vacation in San Francisco. 

 During his absence his place is being 

 filled by Joseph Poirette, of this city.

PORTLAND, ORE. 



The Market. 



August closed without a trace of rain, 

 which was reflected both in the quality 

 and quantity of stock, and in business. 

 Nearly all outdoor stock has been 

 scorched. Zinnias, gladioli and lilies 

 are still to be had in quantity, and the 

 cut of carnations increases each week. 

 Now that the schools are open, bringing 

 the people back from their vacations, it 

 is expected that business will improve. 



Various Notes. 



The Crissey Gladiolus Farm had an 

 excellent display of gladioli at the

O. E. Panzer's range, at Fifty-second

 mostly to pompon chrysanthemums. The 

 principal varieties are Mrs. Beu, Buck- 

 ingham, Diana, Golden Climax, Fairy 

 Queen and Bessie Flight. He also has 

 some carnations and a bench of winter- 

 flowering forget-me-nots and pot plants. 

 Mr. Panzer says he has not been able 

 to supply the demand for statice. At 

 present he has about 150 pounds cured 

 for shipment east. W. G. W. 



SPOKANE, WASH. 



There are no great changes in busi- 

 ness conditions to be recorded at this 

 time. Funeral work continues good, 

 but, with the exception of an occasional 

 wedding order, other business is slack. 

 Stock is good for the season and, as 

 usual, more than plentiful.
