The Florists' Review 



March 17. 1921. 



stated that everything was satisfactory, 

 both as to the results already obtained 

 and as to the ready response of the 

 members in paying their quotas. Com- 

 munications were read from both John 

 Young, secretary of the S. A.^F., and 

 J. F. Ammann, secretary of the Na- 

 tional Flower Growers' Association, 

 commending the club on the success it 

 has had in its advertising campaign. 

 E. T. Mische and James Forbes were 

 appointed a committee to ascertain to 

 what lengths the Rose Festival Asso- 

 ciation would go to help the Florists' 

 Club stage a real flower show indoors 

 during the rose festival week, in June. 

 Hans Niklas entertained the members 

 with a fine collection of lantern slides 

 in natural colors. All of these slides 

 were of flower beds in and around Port- 

 land, several beds of pansies being ex- 

 ceptionally fine. The meeting then ad- 

 journed and cards and light refresh- 

 ments rounded out an enjoyable eve- 



ning. 



Various Notes. 



The Swetland Flower Shop, under 

 the management of S. A. Dunlap, opened 

 March 5. Souvenir nosegays were 

 given to the ladies attending and an 

 orchestra furnished music for the large 

 number of visitors who called at the 

 store. 



The Easter stock of the Holden Flo- 

 ral Co. is in fine shape, the lilies, Dar- 

 win tulips and hyacinths being in espe- 

 cially fine condition. H. J. H.

The Market. 



The local cut of roses is still insuffi- 

 cient to meet the demand, but a good 

 cut is promised for Easter. With the 

 bright weather sweet peas are coming 

 in fine shape and are first-class stock. 

 Daffodils and tulips have been more or 

 less scarce all the season, but the coast, 

 outside-grown daffodils are starting to 

 arrive, so the shortage will soon be re- 

 lieved. All other seasonable stock has 

 kept the market well supplied. Potted 

 Easter lilies are to be seen in some of 

 the stores and the growers report that 

 most of the crops will be in time for 

 Easter. 



Various Notes. 



The regular meeting of the Spokane 

 Florists' Club was held at the Y. M. C. 

 A. last week. The speaker of the eve- 

 ning was Mrs. Maude A. Lee, repre- 

 senting the city beautiful committee, 

 who placed before the florists one of the 

 programs they wish to carry out, 

 namely, buying vases for the hospitals, 

 as at present the vases used in the hos- 

 pitals are, in most cases, not the cor- 

 rect sizes for the different flowers. The 

 chairman of the club had formerly been 

 appointed from week to week, but at 

 this meeting H. Lozier was appointed 

 chairman until July 1, 1921. The com- 

 mittees under him will consist of: Ad- 

 vertising, C. T. Kipp and S. Younkin; 

 entertainment, H. Hill and William 

 Peters; sports, H. L. Olson, W. Peters 

 and T. Hedger; membership, E. 8. 

 Eugene, R. Nevill and Mr. Haley. It 

 was proposed that the nurserymen be 

 invited to join the club. After the meet- 

 ing a bowling contest was held. 



E. Wick, of the Spokane Florist Co., 

 was passing the cigars recently, in 

 honor of a happy occasion.
