LOS ANOELES. 



The Market. 



June weddings and school exercises 

 have given just the stimulus to business 

 that was needed to wind up the season 

 well. In almost every retail store, and 

 in some of the wholesale ones, school 

 work has been prominent. Funeral work 

 has also kept up well, and altogether it 

 has been a busy week for all. The stock 

 being used is about the same as noted 

 last week, the principal addition being 

 Kuperb Iris Kaempferi. Greenhouse car- 

 nations are good, but the outdoor flowers 

 are getting rather rough. There is a 

 good demand for hanging baskets, with 

 ferns or foliage plants, for porch and 

 house decoration. 



Various Notes. . 



It had been common knowledge in 

 the city for several days that Charles 

 E. Morton, of the Los Angeles Flower 

 Market, had sold his interest in the cor- 

 poration and that Fred Sperry had been 

 appointed president. But the incoming 

 partner apparently did not like the 

 flower business and Mr. Morton has 

 bought in again. He will probably go 

 away for a time to get the throat trouble 

 from which he has been suffering fixed 

 up, but will continue in business at the 

 old stand. We should all be sorry to 

 lose "Charlie" from our midst, and all 

 wish him a speedy recovery of his usual 

 health. 



Miss Rohrs since giving up her busi- 

 ness on Washington street has been liv- 

 ing at the beach at Ocean Park and is 

 much improved in health. 



J. M. Grant, of this city, has been ap- 

 pointed forester for Orange county, with 

 headquarters at Santa Ana. He has 

 already taken up his duties. He has had 

 considerable experience in southern Cali- 

 fornia, including some time as inspector 

 under the horticultural commission 

 Previous to coming here he was in the 

 government forest service in South 

 Africa and Australia. His practical and 

 theoretical knowledge of the trees and 

 shrubs of these latitudes should make 

 him a valuable man to the county, and 

 he enters his new position with the best 

 wishes of a large circle of friends in 

 Los Angeles and vicinity. 



H. Reeve Darling has returned from 

 his European honeymoon trip. I have 

 not as yet seen him, but Manager W. 

 Garbett says he has him in harness 

 again. Business is keeping up finely in 

 the store, with plenty of graduation 

 work. 



C, Winsel always has a lot of flowers 

 "in the store, from his Montebello nurs- 

 ery. Some fine outdoor roses are the 

 special attraction this week. An auto- 

 mobile service station has taken up part 

 of his Washington street nursery, but 

 does not interfere with his store there. 



H. W. Turner is adding a Chalmers 

 automobile delivery van to the equip- 

 ment, which will help to eliminate all de- 

 lays in delivery in the early morning and 

 in meeting trains with plant stock. 

 Everything points to a most successful 

 season here, the number of plants 

 shipped out being remarkable.
