The Florists^ Review 



9t 



daj iMt week. The explanation is that 

 Walteit Garbett was away on vacation 

 and the funeral work was overplentiful. 

 Morris has promised not to offend again. 

 The funeral of a relative of President 

 Schneider of the Boston Store led to 

 a lot of work, one beautiful pall being 

 included. 



H. N. Gage has returned from his 

 trip with big stacks of orders. Aspara- 

 gus plumosus seed is still selling freely, 

 and business keeps up well in the cut 

 flower end. 



Frank Lichtenberg is down with a 

 severe attack of nerve strain. He has 

 been working at a fast clip of late and 

 looking far from well, and is now down 

 and out temporarily. All his friends 

 in the trade wish him a speedy recov- 

 ery. Mrs. Lichtenberg and the staff 

 at the store are finding plenty to do. 



O, C. Saakes uses up a good deal of 

 Amaryllis Belladonna in his funeral 

 work; the stock is the product of his 

 ranch near Bedondo. Trade keeps up 

 well here for the season. 



Staiger & Mundwiler are progressing 

 with their new place at Lomita. Mr. 

 Mundwiler is putting in a good deal of 

 his time there, while Mr. Staiger stays 

 at the city place. There is a lot of 

 good stock at the latter place that 

 begins to need more room, and this they 

 will have at Lomita. 



S. Murata reports city trade as fair, 

 but the shipping business is excellent. 

 His high grade asters are extra fine. 



Everyone in the trade was sorry to 

 hear that Viola Dieterich, youngest 

 daughter of Jacob Dieterich, had been 

 taken ill with appendicitis. At the 

 time of writing she was reported much 

 better and it was hoped that no opera- 

 tion would be necessary. 



Harry Bailey and Mrs. Bailey, of 

 Montebello, have gone on a trip to Sau 

 Diego. 



Dieterich & Turner are busy getting 

 the new land in order, and in the even- 

 ings Mr. Turner tours around the de- 

 lightful country hereabouts in his big 

 Stoddard-Dayton, which he now handles 

 as eflSiciently as he handles his roses. 

 His partner takes a ride with him occa- 

 sionally and, although sticking to the 

 horse as yet, "Jake" will have to 

 come in line sooner or later. 



H. E. Richards. 



SAN FRANCISCO. 



The Market. 



The weather is turning cooler, the 

 days are getting shorter and the fall 

 season wDl soon be here. With the re- 

 turning of the town folks from the 

 country, trade is on the mend and the 

 month of August is fully as good as 

 that of one year ago. In a general way 

 it may be said that flowers of all kinds 

 are cheaper than they usually are even 

 at this time. Asters were never better 

 or sold at so low a price, and the same 

 ("an be said of everything seasonable. 

 Oarnations are good and cheap. This 

 can be explained by the fact that we 

 have had, on the whole, an unusually 

 cool summer. At no time was there a 

 sufficiently long spell of hot days to 

 bring any excess of stock; besides, there 

 has been no trouble to keep flowers on 

 hand for a few days with the chance of 

 finding a possible demand. 



At the present writing even roses are 

 fine, both in color and form. Other 

 lines, Bueh as dahlias, gladioli, amaryl- 

 lis, lilies, violets and hardy flowers,
