SAN FRANCISCO. 



ThtMMsktL 



Never within the recollection of the 

 oldest florist in San Francisco has the 

 florists' trade been so demoralized as it 

 is at present. The city is so thoroughly 

 divided in regard to the districts de- 

 voted to retail stores that most of our 

 largest dealers have had to open two or 

 more establishments. 



It is hard to tell at this time where 

 the center of trade is to be in the down- 

 town district. The prominent retailers 

 are opening stores in close proximity to 

 the large dry goods shops. It always 

 happens that certain streets and loca- 

 tions get the great bulk of the travel, 

 and this is the greatest puzzle to be 

 solved. It is yet too early to tell how 

 the trade will go, so a dozen of our big 

 florists' establishments have located on 

 half a dozen of the principal downtown 

 thoroughfares and are awaiting the turn 

 of the tide. Rents for desirable loca- 

 tions are sky-high, and in any event it 

 will be some time before they will be 

 justified in taking such a load to carry. 

 The downtown property owners are ask- 

 ing all the traffic will bear, and for these 

 reasons, coupled with the fact that the 

 general public are buying sparingly, I

Fischer's Grand Freesia PURITY 



Tbe unequaled 'white decorative Freesia. Send in your orders early if you want the 

 large sizes, as I am booking large orders for them now and will have to refuse orders for 

 mammoth, although I will have many more bulbs than other years. Our stock is absolutely 

 pure, as great pains is taken to remove any rogues, as they may appear, and all seed pods 

 are removed, avoiding all danger of mixture, as E>urlty does not come true from seed. 

 Dealers getting their stock from us, will always be sure to net the purest of stock.
