The Weekly Florists* Review. 



OCTOBBB 6, 1911. 



TORONTO. 



Tlie Markist. 



Trade during the last" week has 

 picked up considerably. Funeral work 

 • has been quite plentiful and this, to- 

 gether with weddings and a good call 

 for cut flowers, has kept things go- 

 ing. Stock is arriving in much better 

 .shape. Boses are excellent and carna- 

 tions are improving rapidly. Mums are 

 in excellent demand, but some retailers 

 complain they are hard to get. Violets 

 have made their appearance and are of 

 excellent quality for this time of year. 

 Dahlias are now offered in quantity. 



Various Notes. 



S. Tidy & Sons have received a big 

 shipment of palms from Belgium. They 

 also received a number of Nephrole- 

 pis Harrisii from Philadelphia. They 

 are using a number of these to decorate 

 their store. 



Mr. Hoath, who was with Sir Henry 

 M. Pellatt for some time, has opened 

 a store near Spadina avenue and Col- 

 lege street. 



S. A. Frost has had a fire in the shed 

 in the rear of his premises on College 

 street. Damage to the extent of $200 

 was done. 



J. S. Simmons has purchased the 

 business of Mrs. Thos. Plumb, on North 

 Yonge street, and will run it as a 

 branch in connection with his main 

 store. 



Steele-Briggs Seed Co. has received 

 a permit for the erection of a new 

 building at the corner of Spadina ave- 

 nue and St. Clarence Square.

 M. Eice & Co., Philadelphia; Julius

PACIFIC COAST. 



Eugene, Ore. — B. Eae has completed 

 a new addition to his greenhouses and 

 has installed a new ten horse-power 

 boiler. 



Puyallup, Wash. — A, Lingham, pro- 

 prietor of the Puyallup Nursery, had a 

 splendid exhibit of dahlias at the an- 

 nual show in Tacoma. 



Portland, Ore. — The Clackamas 

 Greenhouse Co., with principal place of 

 business here, has filed articles of in- 

 corporation, with $20,000 capital stock. 

 The incorporators are F. Niklas, Albert 

 Herbert and Wm. Lawrence.' • ^' 



SAN FRANCISCO, CAL. 



The Market. 



The weather has turned slightly 

 warm again and everything is lovely — 

 with the exception of business, which is 

 rather quiet, although the indications 

 are that it may pick up at any time. 

 There has been quite a bit of funeral 

 work, however, which has been well 

 divided among the retailers. Carna- 

 tions are not as plentiful as they were 

 one year ago. It seems that many of 

 the growers were rather late in getting 

 their houses changed this season, and as 

 a consequence stock of good quality 

 is scarcei Of roses we have little 

 ' •eemplaint sitd, considering the season, 

 the stock looks as well as could be ex-

pected and is daily growing better. As- 

 ters will be a thing of the past in a 

 few days and mums are rapidly taking 

 their place. We have had to depend 

 principally on inside stock since their 

 season commenced, but now the outside 

 grown stock is at hand in good shape. 

 Japanese lilies are holding on well and 

 seem to be better than they were a 

 few weeks ago. Valley has not changed 

 and violets are a bit more plentiful, 

 but they do not keep. Other sorts of 

 outside stock are about as usual. 



Various Notes. 



Herman Sandkuhle, of the Sunset 

 , Nursery, of Piedmont, was united in 

 '^marriage with Miss Juliette Stetten- 

 berg, of Oakland, September 28. 



J. M. Holland, the Berkeley nursery- 

 man, has purchased a tract of land 

 alongside his present location and will 

 erect several greenhouses in the near 

 future. 



The California Betail Florists' Asso- 

 ciation is considering the advisability 

 of the closing of all the retail flower 

 stores in Oakland on Sunday after- 

 noons. This idea has taken well with 

 this -town and practically all the stores 

 are keeping open but half a day Sun- 

 day. G.
