of the Liberty bank, in the former Bank 

 of Italy building, may be partly re- 

 sponsible for this. H. A. Avansino, of 

 the E. W. McLellan Co., Inc., believes 

 that the reopening of schools and the 

 return of people from summer vacations 

 mean that much of the increased busi- 

 ness will be permanent. 



A liberal fortune was poured out in 

 flowers for the funeral of John D. 

 Spreckels, Jr., grandson of the multi- 

 millionaire sugar magnate, the late Claus 

 Sprcckels. He was killed in an automo- 

 bile accident near Bakersfield. The 

 funeral took place in San Francisco, and 

 a number of the local florists worked day 

 and night to complete the costly floral 

 tributes. Among them were Podesta & 

 Baldocchi, Policano, Eossi & Co., 

 Joseph 's, Art Floral Co., F. C. Jaeger 

 & Son, Albert O. Stein, Darbee's and 

 otlier leading florists. Lilies of the 

 valley, gardenias and otlier costly flow- 

 ers were lavishly used. Another funeral 

 where the tributes were numerous and 

 costly was that of the well-known 

 broker, Mr. Mulcahy. 



The Liberty bank was crowded with 

 large and ex])ensivc floral tributes Mon- 

 day. August 8, its opening day. A liberty 

 torch is one of its emblems and this was 

 beautifully rcjiroduced in numerous 

 floral designs. The bank 's design 

 of a globe, with "Day and Night" on 

 it, was also cleverly duplicated in flow- 

 ers. C. Kooyman Co. made a piece 'S^jX 

 6i,{. feet, with tlio flame of the torch rc])- 

 I'esented 1)y crimson celosia, the torcli 

 itself of mignonette, with cornflowers 

 and other flowers forming a duplicate of 

 a check of the Liberty l)ank. F. C. Jaeger 

 & Son, the Art Floral Co. and other firms 

 were kept busy by the bank's opening. 



Mrs. Hugh Harris, of the Ferndalc 

 Greenhouses, Temple, Tex., is in San 

 Francisco. 



Max Scheinuk, of Xew Orleans, is in 

 the city with Mrs. Scheinuk and their 

 young son. I. Inque showed him the 

 nurseries of the United Flower & Sup- 

 ply Co. and Mr. Scheinuk is busily visit- 

 ing other growers, with an eye to future 

 trade. "I am much impressed with 

 the flower shops of San Francisco," he 

 said. 



J. A. Axell is not expected back until 

 September 1. P. B. Norton, Mr. Axell 's 

 jtartner, s])(aking of the express rates, 

 said, "The express companies were not 

 making money, so they raised their 

 rates. This has resulted in such a loss 

 of business that the express companies 

 arc making less than ever." This state- 

 ment was apropos of the fact that some 

 of the California shippers of flowers are
