Julius Eppstein ia finding decorations 

 for luncheons and dinners much in de- 

 mand at the St. Francis hotel. Owing 

 to the seriousness of the help question 

 on the Pacific coast, many hostesses en- 

 tertain at hotels and restaurants. 



The MacRorie-McLaren Co. has a 

 large stock of potted plants at its nurs- 

 eries. Manager Louis J. Capurro has 

 arranged for a special holiday display. 



The Thomas Floral Co. is anticipating 

 a large holiday season, especially in 

 potted plants. The new branch of this 

 firm, the Conservatory, at 901 Larkin 

 street, is now under the management of 

 F. Shibeley, who has been in the flo- 

 rists' business here for thirty years. Mr. 

 Thomas states that his manager's popu- 

 larity is resulting in excellent business 

 for the Conservatory. 



Eosaia Bros, are experiencing a brisk 

 demand for their violets and roses. They 

 find their new San Francisco quarters, 

 at O'Farrell & Jones streets, quite con- 

 venient for business. 



At a recent society luncheon, admira- 

 tion was expressed for a color combina- 

 tion of fruit, vegetables and flowers 

 designed at Albert O. Stein's estab- 

 lishment. In large brass opium bowls, 

 heather, yellow baby mums and Irish 

 Elegance roses were combined with egg- 

 plant, green and red peppers, persim- 

 mons, crooked-necked squash and striped 

 squash in green and yellows and pome- 

 granates, the whole having a sky effect 

 given by turquoise blue rilibon. 



Mrs. R. E. Darbee says that eastern 

 florists are beginning to realize the 

 decorative properties of woodwardias, 

 from which a beautiful tree fern can 

 easily bo built by using the long, single 

 leaves, which ship easily. One of Mrs. 

 Darbee '3 fern hunters is sending her 

 occasional shipments of another beauti- 

 ful fern, known locally as dccr-tongue 

 fern. M. M.

The Market. 



There was less trade activity among 

 the retailers after the Thanksgiving 

 holidays, but the demand has been about 

 even with the supply in spite of this. 

 Stock is shortening up as far as local 

 growers are concerned and this welcome 

 condition, together with a number of 

 large decorations and plenty of funeral 

 work, enabled the retailers to clean up 

 their stock practically every day with- 

 out any loss. 



Roses are in smaller supply. Carna-
