TheWeekly Florists' Review. 



NOVBMBKR 80, 1911. 



PACIFIC COAST. 



This Department now overflows its 

 three pages, onto a fourth page. And it 

 has only began to grow. Would some- 

 one at Los Angeles like to help push 

 it along by supplying a boiled-down 

 weekly letter regarding trade events 

 there? There are openings for corre- 

 spondents in several other Coast cities. 



Cle Elum, Wash., — J. A. Balmer is 

 trying out about 100 of the newer H. T. 

 roses in his new house, solid beds, with 

 a view of finding something adapted to 

 his soil and conditions. The Killarneys, 

 pink and white, are neither a success 

 with him; too many short stems, and 

 too much mildew. The market is none 

 too good on the Pacific coast this fall. 



Los Angeles, Cal. — The Freeman- 

 Lewis Co. has opened a flower store at 

 212 West Fourth street. It is said to 

 be one of the handsomest stores in 

 town. Mr. Freeman, the business man- 

 ager, was formerly a florist in Indian- 

 apolis, but has resided in this city for 

 some years. Mr. Lewis, who has charge 

 of the decorating part of the firm's 

 business, has been connected for the 

 last three years with Wright's Flower 

 Shop. 



OIL FOB FUEL. 



Has any reader of The Review situ- 

 ated on the Pacific coast had experience 

 with fuel oil as applied to the florists' 

 business? Particulars of same would 

 be appreciated. F. B. 



CALIFORNIA NUBSESTMEN MEET. 



The California Association of Nurs- 

 erymen held its first fall meeting at

 geles, November 23 and 24, with an 

 automobile drive and picnic on the fol- 

 lowing day. Heretofore spring meet-
