The Rorists' Review 



May L'7, 1915. 



SAN FRANCISCO NOTES. 



[Oontinaed from paire 63.] 

 the McLellan Co., attributes the vogue 

 of this rose to its excellent keeping 

 quality, which gives it great favor 

 among the country people. He says 

 a lot of the old Killarneys are being 

 thrown out, though some Queen and a 

 good many Brilliant are being kept, 

 and he considers the white the best of 

 all the Killarneys in this territory. 

 Hadley, also, he says, has done well. 



The Gill Nursery Co. is making the 

 largest cut it has yet had of Irish Ele- 

 gance roses, which are especially hand- 

 some this year, and all that appear are 

 eagerly taken by a few leading retailers. 

 The Gill rose plot at the exposition is 

 blooming finely now. 



Paul Grallert, of Alameda county, 

 who took a special award last week for 

 oriental poppies, which are large and 

 extra fine in coloring, has not a large 

 supply, but some beautiful displays of 

 them are being made at one or two 

 downtown stores. 



The many friends of Alfred Hammer- 

 smith, designer for Joseph's, are ex- 

 tending sympathy on account of the 

 death of his wife this week, Mr. Ham- 

 mersmith is an old-time florist and is 

 well known in the city. 



"Charlie" Abraham, proprietor of 

 the Western Nursery, at Greenwich and 

 Franklin street, reports business good. 

 Mr. Abraham is keeping pretty busy 

 at present and regrets that he has not 

 more time for "puttering around," as 

 he puts it, with experimental work. 



The Hogan-Kooyman Co, did a large 

 shipping business in calla and freesia 

 bulbs last summer and expects to re- 

 peat it this season. 



D. Gruettner & Son, of Vallejo, Cal., 

 will soon be located in a new building, 

 work on which started this month. 



Lavinia Priest, of Berkeley, Cal., is 

 offering her business for sale. 



F. Lasserre, at 1613 Ellis street, near 

 Fillmore street, suffered considerable 

 loss from fire May 17. S. H. G. 



Niagara TaUs, N. T.— The Niagara 

 Greenhouse, on Portage road, has been 

 purchased by C, E. Harris and A. M. 

 Lever, of this city, who will hereafter 

 conduct the business. Mr. Harris was 

 with the firm of E. A. Butler & Son 

 for over twenty-eight years.

WEED KILLER 



THE VERY NEWEST AND QUICKEST METHOD OF DESTROYING WEEDS. GRASS AND 



OTHER GROWTH IN GARDEN WALKS. GUTTERS, TENNIS COURTS, DRIVEWAYS, ETC. 



This fluid absolutely destroys all weeds and other growths wher- 

 ever applied, and its effect on the ground prevents the growth of 

 fresh ones for a year and thus saves a great deal of time and labor, 

 as DO cutting, hoeing or hauling away of the weeds is required.
