tidins axe less plentiful, as most of 

 the largest growers have set their new 

 plants and but few benches are carried 

 over. 



^ Various Notes. 



Zimmerman Bros, have added to 

 their varieties of perennials until they 

 have over 300 sorts. They intend to 

 devote their entire establishment to 

 perennials, for which they find a good 

 demand. 



Thomas Pollock, of the store force 

 of the Boutledge Seed & Floral Co., 

 was married last week to Miss 

 Eowena Bussell. The wedding tour in- 

 cluded a visit to Mr. Pollock's par- 

 ents, at Denver. The couple will re- 

 turn here to reside. 



Geo. M. Letherman, of the Holmes- 

 Letherman Seed Co., Canton, O., 

 stopped on his way back from the 

 fair and visited the local seed growers. 



E. J. Steele, the pansy grower, has 

 just finished mailing his summer cata- 

 logue and reports a rush of advance 

 orders already received. He was pres- 

 ent at the seed trade convention held 

 in Frisco and says he is much pleased 

 with the sentiment of the convention, 

 which strongly encouraged the produc- 

 tion of seeds in the United States. 

 This movement is of special interest 

 to the Pacific northwest, where, Mr. 

 Steele says, the soil and climate are 

 favorable for growing many varieties 

 of seeds. 



At the recent annual meeting of the 

 Oregon Sweet Pea Society, J. H. 

 Dundore was reSlected president, and 

 Mrs. Harriet Hendee, secretary-treas- 

 urer. The society reports a member- 

 ship of over 100. 



Karl P. Baum, of Chas. L. Baum, 

 Knoxville, Tenn., called on the florists 

 here, accompanied by Mrs. Baum. He 

 was with a party of Shriners. 



The Floral Studio reports business 

 spotted, but averaging fairly well. A 

 feature of their window _ display re- 

 cently was an auratum lily which con- 

 tained over fifty blooms. The upper 

 part of the stalk was flat and about 

 three and one-half inches broad. 



Martin & Forbes donated the flow- 

 ers used at the breakfast given to the 

 delegation of Philadelphia officials cc- 

 companying the Liberty Bell. This 

 firm has on display some fine Hoosier 

 Beauty roses, and some Ophelia with 

 stems over thirty inches long. These 

 were cut from young stock. 



C. Tonseth cut his vacation short 

 on account of the illness of his mother. 

 She is now out of serious danger, but, 

 as her sickness is due to old age, there 

 is but little hope for her permanent 

 recovery. 



Clark's Flower Shop, on Upper 

 Washington street, reports that busi- 

 ness, until the arrival of summer con- 

 ditions, was better than exp|cted. 



W. C. Hoffman grew the good callas 

 now on display at E. C. Cook's store. 



The Nippon Floral Co. is cutting 

 some fine auratum lilies. 



The wet condition of the soil has 

 delayed the taking up of carnation 

 plants grown outdoors. At the carna- 

 tion ranges of H. F. Bichards and 

 W. E. Dungey part of the benches have 

 been filled with soil, but the plants 

 will not be set until they dry out. 

 Both of their families are away, en- 

 joying summer vacations. 



Clarke Bros, arranged a window dis- 

 play in honor of the visiting Shriners. 

 There was a background of coleus, 



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 about 

 it by nsing the Pacific Coast 

 Pages of The Review. 



Pacific Coast advertisers al- 

 most invariably report good 

 results. Like this: 



Say I That ad's a hmndlnver for tettlnt ths 

 boalness.— Everett Floral Co., Everett, Wash. 



I Bold all the Mtmi cattinn advertised, and yon 

 will not hear from me again until I can get loms 

 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 oar advertisement in The Bs- 

 view the cyclamen seedlings. We sold all onr 

 surplus cyclamen seedlings as a direct result of 

 our advertisement in your paper.— Spokane 

 Greenhouses (Inc.), Spokane. Wash. 



We want to say that onr last advertisement in 

 The Review brought us orders from both the At- 

 lantic and Pacific coasts. We had, strangely 

 enoogh, 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 refniad 

 many orders. The Review snrely gives results. 

 —Van Slyke & Seamons, Tacoma. Wash.
