& Baldocchi. He has been prospecting 

 in the mountains. 



Miss Dolores Howard, formely with 

 the Art Floral Co., has joined the staff 

 of Joseph's. George P. Wagner, chief 

 decorator of this firm, states that the 

 initial advertising done by the Eetail 

 Florists' Association has considerably 

 increased the volume of business done 

 by local florists. 



The Growers' Cut Flower Co. has a 

 fine crop of inside carnations. The new 

 crop of roses is also coming to the mar- 

 ket in good shape. 



Funeral work has been keeping the 

 MacRorie-McLaren Co. busy. This firm 

 is sending in some heather. Erica reger- 

 miuans ovata, which is being admired 

 on account of its size and the luxuriance 

 of its blooms. 



California dried fruits and nuts are 

 mixed with flowers in artistic souvenir 

 baskets which decorate one of the win- 

 dows of the Art Floral Co. 



Julius Eppstein, of the St. Francis, 

 states that the social season is now mov- 

 ing along briskly and is keeping him 

 busy with decorations for luncheons, 

 banquets and teas. 



Albert O. Stein is working overtime 

 on account of social affairs. He has had 

 some large orders from families whose 

 daughters are making tlieir debuts in 

 society. This season the debutantes 

 are being introd>iced amid especially 

 fine floral decorations. 



James Jordan has left the employment 

 of F. C. Jaeger & Son and has joined 

 the staff of the Eednndo Floral Co., at 

 Los Angeles. G. McDonald has also 

 severed his connection with the firm, 

 wiiich lias been joined by Sam Matraia. 

 Speaking of the great difficulty which 

 the local florists are experiencing in ob- 

 taining capable help, F. C. Jaeger, Jr., 

 said: "We hope that the newly organ- 

 ized Retail Florists' Association, by 

 shortening florists' hours, will be the 

 means of inducing members of the young 

 generation to take up this work. At 

 present none of them seems to be go- 

 ing into it. People are rushed with 

 business and first-class men are almost 

 impossible to secure. There may be a 

 number of men out of work in San 

 Francisco, but tlicy are not florists and 

 the long hours are deterring young men 

 from entering the trade." M. M.
