ruptcy, with liahilities of about $6,000 

 and assets of about $5,000, the Bar- 

 teldes Seed Co., of Denver, being one 

 of the large creditors. Geo. H. Eay- 

 mond has be^B' appointed trustee. 



The Winters Floral Co. suffered a 

 slight loss by fire, starting from some 

 unknown cause in the basement. The 

 store is closed during the adjustment 

 of the insurance. 



A. J. Burt is looking around for a 

 suitable location, as the space used by 

 him will be used by the new hotel being 

 erected, covering the entire block. 



H. E. Beimers, of Armstrong's, is 

 showing some nice My Maryland roses 

 and reports business as good as can 

 be expected for the summer months. 



The Spokane Greenhouses are cut- 

 ting some fine Francis King gladioli 

 and they are finding a ready sale. Their 

 gloxinias and tuberous-rooted begonias 

 are also nice. 



Hoyt Bros, are showing some fine 

 auratum and rubrum lilies and using 

 them effectively in their window dis- 

 play. 



The Spokane Florist Co. has been 

 putting in some pretty windows, with 

 arrangements of gladioli and dahlias. 

 They report a nice increase of busi- 

 ness over the corresponding period of 

 last year. 



Adolph Donart, of Coeur D'Alene, is 

 sending some fine carnations to this 

 market and reports that he will soon 

 have chrysanthemums to offer.

SAN FRANCISCO. 



The Market. 



The weather has turned warm again 

 and flowers are consequently coming in 

 with a rush. This is particularly no- 

 ticeable with asters, and they are at 

 their best now. Other lines of stock are 

 showing the results of the warm spell 

 and, as a rule, are not quite so good as 

 they have been for the last month. Vio- 

 lets are poor and do not sell well. 

 Amaryllis is plentiful, and the same can 

 be said of dahlias and gladioli. Boses 

 are cheap, and until a week ago were 

 better than those usually shown in the 

 middle of summer. Other lines of stock 

 have not changed much, and business is 

 a shade better than it was one week 

 ago, with a good lot of funeral orders 

 distributed around. 



Various Notes. 



About seventy-five members of the 

 Pacific Coast Horticultural Society took 

 a trip to the greenhouses of E. James, 

 at Elmhurst, August 4. A splendid 

 showing of ferns, palms and other stock 

 well repaid them for their journey. Mr. 

 James is one of the most successful 

 growers of this class of stock on the 

 coast. 



Henry Ehlen, of Portland, Ore., is in 

 town for a few days' visit. 



C. B. Knickman, representing Mc- 

 Hutchison & Co., New York city, has 

 been in San Francisco and vicinity for 

 several days, calling on the trade. 



Stevenson's Flower Shop, recently 

 opened in the Cort theater building, 

 reports a good, steady trade, which is 

 increasing noticeably. 



A regular monthly meeting of the 

 California State Floral Society was held 

 in Red Men's hall, August 9, at 2 p. m. 

 A meeting of the directors was held at 

 the same place at 1 p. m. 



A smoker was given by the members 

 of the Pacific Coast Horticultural So- 



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 using the Pacific Coast 

 Pages of The Review. 



Pacific Coast advertisers al- 

 most invariably report good 

 results. Like this: 



We want to say that our last advert isement 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.. June 26, 1912. 



We are well pleased with the results obtained 

 by advertiiing in the Pacific Coast Department of 

 The Reyiew. We sold oat clean and refused many 

 orders. The Beylew sorely rlvei results.— Van 

 Slyke & Seamoni, Tacoma, Wash. 



The transient rate for space 

 is $1 per inch per insertion. 

 Those who have stock to offer 

 all or a considerable part of 

 the year around should write 

 for contract rates.
