The Florists' Review 



49 



16. It is located in the Green building, 

 on Fourth avenue near Pike street. 

 H. J. Croskill and C. F. Muench are the 

 proprietors and they certainly deserve 

 credit for a beautiful and commodious 

 place of business. An innovation*"for 

 dorists here is their refrigerating plant, 

 with which they manufacture their own 

 ice. Miss Buth Shook is assisting them, 

 in the store, and from latest reports 

 business is good and prospects encour- 

 aging. 



Joseph Stuber and Balph Richardson 

 reached home September 15, after an 

 exjtended tour of eastern cities. They 

 ei^oyed themselves greatly, but were 

 glad to see Seattle again just the same. 



Hollywood Gardens have had a good 

 share of the decorations at the depart- 

 ment stores this month. They deco- 

 rated McDougal & Southwick, Fred- 

 erick & Nelson and Fraser Paterson & 

 Co. for their openings last week. 



Mr. Bichardson, Sr., of the Floral 

 Market Co., and E. Matraia, the Paris 

 Florist, have been looking over condi- 

 tions in California. They returned last 

 week. 



The Floral Market Co. received a 

 shipment of chrysanthemums from Cali- 

 fornia last week, which arrived in good 

 condition. 



The Aabling-Ebright Seed Co. has 

 leased the greenhouses of the Seattle 

 Carnation Co., at Kent. The plan is to 

 use. them partly for seed-testing pur- 

 poses. J. A. Sahli and Ed Founds have 

 charge of the growing department. 



At the King County Fair the prizes 

 for a table of flowers, 100 square feet, 

 were awarded as follows: Thomas 

 Wylie, first; H. B. Burdett Co., second; 

 Aabling-Ebright Seed Co., third. The 

 silver cup for six plants in 4-inch pots 

 was won by Thomas Wylie. C. Hoff- 

 meister judged the florists' exhibits. 

 Thomas Wylie also won first prize with 

 his onions, twelve of which weighed 

 twenty-eight pounds. T. *W. 



Dayton,, Wash. — Walter Harrison 

 acted as judge at the dahlia show held 

 here September 9. 



Victoria, B. O. — S. Thorne is the suc- 

 cessor to H. Pruvey at the greenhouses 

 at 2134 Ida street. 



Montebello, Cal. — Class spirit at the 

 Montebello High School is filling flor- 

 ists' pockets as the result of plans 

 by which each class in turn fills a large 

 jardiniere in the school with flowers 

 of the class color. 



Burlingame, Cal. — Seven miles of 

 marsh land between here and South 

 San Francisco will be converted into a 

 flower and vegetable farm by the D. 

 O. Mills estate at a cost of $250,000. 

 Long leases have been made by the 

 Mills estate, which owns only a part 

 of the land, and $50,000 has already 

 been spent for dredging. The plant- 

 ing of seeds will begin early next 

 year.

It 



Pays 



To 



Pacific Coast 



Florists : 



What stock have you 



for sale to the trade? 

 Is it moving as it should? 



No? 



Then tell the trade abont 

 it by using the Pacific Coast 

 Pages of The Review. 



Pacific Coast advertisers al- 

 most invariably report good 

 results. Like this: 



Say! That ad's a humdinger for trettlng the 

 business.— Everett Floral Co., Everett, Wash. 



I sold all the Mum cuttings advertised, and you 

 will not hear from me again until I can get some 

 more stock ready. Shall root 100.000 Carnation 

 cuttings for next season, as I know The Review 

 will sell them for me.— Frank Wilhelm, Los An- 

 geles, Cal. 



Please cut out of our advertisement in The Re- 

 view the cyclamen seedlings. We sold all our 

 surplus cyclamen seedlings as a direct result of 

 our advertisement in your paper.— Spokane 

 Greenhouses (Inc.), Spokane, Wash. 



We want to say that our last advertisement in 

 The Review brought us orders from both the At- 

 lantic and Pacific coasts. We had, strangely 

 enough, on following days, orders from Salem, 

 Ore., and from Salem, Mass.— State Floral Co.. 

 North Yakima. Wash. 



We are well pleased with the results obtained 

 by advertising in the Pacific Coast Department of 

 The Review. We sold out clean and refused 

 many orders. The Review surely gives results. 

 —Van Slyke & Seamons, Tacoma, Wash.
