biggest day they have had in four 

 months. 



Four funeral pieces for $460 is pretty 

 good business and this was the experi- 

 ence of the Broadway Florist. These 

 were four separate orders for the same 

 funeral, at Murrietta Springs. 



Funeral work of the better class has 

 been plentiful with J. W. Welters; sev- 

 eral large wedding decorations have 

 also helped out. 



Angelo Tassano, of the Los Angeles 

 Evergreen & Cut Flower Supply Market, 

 has returned from San Francisco to 

 help out here, the business being more 

 than Tony could manage alone. Ber- 

 nard, the youngest brother, will remain 

 in the north, for a time at least. Tony 

 says he never had better business or 

 looked forward with more confidence to 

 a good season than now. By straight 

 dealing and strict attention to business 

 he has worked up an elegant connec- 

 tion, of which he is justly proud. 



The window displays in the Freeman- 

 Lewis store continue to be most 

 attractive. 



O. C. Saakes speaks in glowing terms 

 of the San Francisco show. He was 

 especially pleased with the way the Bay 

 City men arranged their Phalsenopsis 

 and other orchids, while the show, as a 

 whole, he classes as a magnificent one. 



At S. Murata's Broadway store I 

 noted some extra fine "hothouse" car- 

 nations. Tom Highbridge, an employee 

 of the firm, lost his wife October 28. 



Sam Slack, lately of Wittbold's, Chi- 

 cago, has left the devious ways of the 

 florist to embark in the chicken busi- 

 ness. 



Still another addition to the list of 

 nurserymen and florists: This time a 

 Londoner, W. Hunt, father of Mr. Hunt 

 of the Hamburger floral department. 

 Mr. Hunt, besides having large floral 

 interests, is an expert potato hybridist 

 and has brought with him from England

 which seem to do well after getting 

 started.

Never before in the history of the 

 Pacific coast has the demand for Logan- 

 berry and Phenomenal plants been so 

 great. The appreciation of these berries 

 is manifest in the eastern demand for 

 fresh fruit, dried fruit and canned; 

 also a new product for soda fountains, 

 called Loganberry juice. The latter 

 can also be used to make jellies and for 

 other household purposes. L. F. S. 



PASADENA, CAL. 



The funeral of former Mayor Earley, 

 October 26, called for a profusion of 

 floral pieces and left the retail stores 

 rather depleted in stock. Kempton's 

 Flower Shop had all the work for the 

 various city departments and made 

 about a dozen different designs. The 

 most notable were: A beautiful broken 

 column, standing over six feet tall and 

 requiring 2,000 white carnations and
