Clarence McLaughlin, of Joseph's, 

 arranged a luncheon at the Fairmount 

 hotel with ripe pomegranates, flaming 

 Tokay and white grapes and russet-col- 

 ored mums. The grapes hung to the 

 table from a crystal chandelier, and the 

 pomegranates and mums were in half 

 overturned baskets. 



Pelicano, Bossi & Co. have been busy 

 with funeral work. 



Avansino Bros. & Co. say that busi- 

 ness is picking up. The wealthy grand 

 opera fans are clamoring for gardenias 

 and orchids, which are scarce at pres- 

 ent. 



Arnold Belli, decorator for the Art 

 Floral Co., had a whole window filled 

 with a huge gilt basket containing a 

 splendid assortment of Chrysolora 

 mums. 



F. C. Jaeger, Jr., states that business 

 is quite equal to that of last year. The 

 reduction in price of chrysanthemums 

 has appealed to the public, with the re- 

 sult that people are buying. 



General and Mrs. Gooch, of the firm of 

 Darbee, have returned from an extended 

 automobile trip, during which they vis- 

 ited the trade in northern California 

 and Oregon. They are especially en- 

 thusiastic over the scenic beauty of the 

 new Columbia highway from the Dalles 

 to Portland, Ore. They also visited a 

 number of little frequented spots, in- 

 cluding Mount Lassen, the only active 

 volcano in the United States. 



H. N. Lowe, of Lowe's Flower Shop, 

 Long Beach, is a San Francisco visitor. 



Thomas Luke, of Smith's Flower 

 Shop, Portland, Ore., with Mrs. Luke, 

 has left for home, after a long motor 

 trip, which included Los Angeles. They 

 were escorted to Vallejo by General and 

 Mrs. Gooch, and went on to visit Mark 

 Ebel, at Sacramento. M. M. 



TACOMA, WASH. 



Chrysanthemums of first-class quality 

 made their appearance in the Tacoma 

 market last week. The season has been 

 most favorable for their development.

was noticed last week, according to the 

 managers of several stores, and a cheer- 

 ful aspect for the next few weeks is 

 predicted. Three heavy frosts cleaned 

 up most of the outdoor flowers of grow- 

 ers outside the city limits, but near the 

 city little damage is noticeable. 



Prices here have been badly cut the 

 last summer, leaving the margin of profit 

 small for both retailers and wholesalers. 

 It is a local condition, caused by favor-
