The Florists^ Review 



July 20, 1922 



and an attendance of one million is the 

 mark set. Much of tho success was due 

 last year to the efforts of Supervisor 

 Kossi. 



Frank Thatc-her, of I'elicauo, Rossi 

 & Co., who has been trout lishinfj near 

 Eureka, is finishiiifj his vacation in the 

 Yosemite valley. John ^'onnji', buyer 

 for Pelieano, Rossi & Co., is spending liis 

 vacation in Trinity county, fishinjj and 

 looking over some mining prospects. 

 Frank D. Pelieano will not take his va- 

 cation until after the dahlia show, to be 

 held in Sejiteiiibcr. 



I'odesta & Haldocchi report having a 

 large number of orders for flowers and 

 floral baskets every time a trans-Pacific 

 liner sails. The staff of tliis firm is look- 

 ing for a g:iinc with a good bowling 

 team after yeptember 1. 



(ieorge Wagner, of Joseph's, is pre- 

 paring to drive to San Diego with his 

 family on an annual vacation. En route 

 they will sjjend a week with Mr. Wag- 

 ner's brother at Long Beach, Cal. 



The Charles C. Navlet Co. opened the 

 dahlia season with a remarkable window 

 display of its new seedlings, some of the 

 varieties measuring fourteen inches 

 across. Manager Picetti stated: "So 

 great was the j>ublic interest in good 

 dahlias that some people came from a 

 long distance to see the exhibit, which 

 created a great stir among dahlia 

 lovers." 



F. C. Jaeger, .Jr.. has returned from 

 ■ his vacation, which was spent on the 

 Russian river and at Los Angeles. "In 

 the southern ]>art of the state," he said, 

 "they had plenty of fine field valley, 

 but the heat has played havoc with 

 most of the stock.'' Tn T>os Angeles 

 Mr. Jaeger called on the trade and was 

 hospitably received. 



Julius Ep])stein, the St. Francis hotel 

 florist, has returned from a trip to Santa 

 Cruz. Mrs. Merle Hiam, store manager, 

 said that business has been good recent- 

 ly. ' ' I suj)pose it is partly because we 

 are in the hotel and people notice the 

 flowers, that they buy," said she. "My 

 exj)erience has been that when business 

 is ])0()r, the bigger display you make, the 

 more flowers you sell. A big mass of 

 dry goods or millinery on display 

 clieajiens the merchandise, but this is 

 not tiiie of flowers." 



T. Honda, of Enomoto & Co., states 

 that the asters will be in good shape for 

 shijiping by the last week in July. They 

 are two weeks late this year, partly ow- 

 ing to the spring having been more 

 severe than usual. 



The Growers' Floral Co. now has largo 

 stocks of dried g>'psophila and helii'hry- 

 suin. 



The United Flower & Sujiply Co. is 

 busy filling its orders for dried straw- 

 flowers. 



Domoto Bros, are cutting good crops 

 • if rubruin lilies. This firm specializes 

 in lily crops. 'S\. ^f. 



PORTLAND, ORE. 



The Market. 



Business activities last week were 

 fair for the time of ye;ir. Occasion- 

 .•lUy a lie;ivy run of funer.-il work comes 

 along and stock is cleared fairly well, 

 (iladioli are arriving, but are none too 

 plentiful; they are of good quality. 



Ferns are becoming ]>Ientiful and are 

 of good quality. Outdoor flowers are 

 scarce and are rather poor on account 

 of the hot weather we have had the 

 last month. *';iriiatioiis are still in the
