present was loud in praises of the ex- 

 ceptionally attractive display. Now 

 that everything is complete and in run- 

 ning order, the store must be regarded as 

 one of the finest in the city, with many 

 original ideas that make for con- 

 venient and successful handling of a 

 high-class business. Some valuable and 

 unique Italian - art objects are well 

 worth a visit. 



Paul Ecke has good reason to be well 

 pleased with the condition of his poin- 

 aettias this year and he needs nothing 

 but good weather now to have much 

 the finest lot he has ever grown. In 

 all, there are about sixteen acres in the 

 Hollywood foothill country, some 60,000 

 young stock having been planted this 

 season. At present they vary from 

 three to six feet in height and, appar- 

 ently, every plant is perfect, so he will 

 have an immense number to ship this 

 season. Practically all these are the 

 true red Christmas-flowering type and 

 all are for cut flowers. Mr. Ecke has 

 the fertilizer from a large dairy at his 

 disposal, and this, used on the light, de- 

 composed granite soil of the neighbor- 

 hood, leads to wonderful results. The 

 plants are perfectly leaved right to the 

 ground and are just beginning to spread 

 out at the top. Just how many he will 

 have would be difficult to say, but the 

 plants are magnificent in every way. A 

 surprise here was in the form of the 

 pink poinsettias. Although not in bloom, 

 the plants are attractive, the broader 

 foliage being of a light green; so at- 

 tractive, in fact, that they will be worth 

 growing for the foliage alone. The flow- 

 ers, according to Mr. Ecke, are a beau- 

 tiful clear pink, quite distinct from the 

 washed-out red that formerly passed as 

 a pink poinsettia. The double form and 

 the white are both grown in small num- 

 bers, but they are not highly thought of. 

 This will be a magnificent show later in 

 the season, when all this big mass of 

 plants comes into bloom. A new variety 

 growing here is probably a hybrid be- 

 tween the early-flowering variety and 

 the late red and having the good quali- 

 ties of both its parents. The flowers 

 are perfect in color and the plants hold 

 their foliage clear to the base. Owing 

 to his consistent advertising in The Re- 

 view, Mr. Ecke has sold out entirely 

 on his stock this season, but he will 

 have an immense stock next year. Mrs. 

 Hartman, Mr. Ecke's sister, has a fine 

 baby girl, 4 months old. 



George Hall & Co. have started ship- 

 ping mums and, as usual, are handling 

 the best class of stock. This firm is 

 successful in long-distance shipping, the
