The Weekly Florists' Review. 



BS 



town in good shape. Asters are prac- 

 tically over for the year, and their 

 place is being rapidly taken by mums. 

 We have had to rely almost entirely 

 on inside stock for the last few weeks, 

 but from this time onward there will 

 be less trouble in getting cheap stock. 

 Orchids are scarce and valley is not 

 plentiful. Japanese lilies are over for 

 the year. Violets are not numerous 

 yet, but the long nights are in their 

 favor and they will soon be in their 

 glory. Sweet peas and all other sorts 

 of hardy stock are past their prime, 

 and we now have to depend on what 

 we get from the greenhouses. 



Various Notes. 

 ,• V. Podesta, of Podesta & Baldocchi, 

 has returned from a two weeks ' trip 

 to Los Angeles and vicinity. 



Ferrari Bros, are cutting some 

 . extra fine Beauties at the present 

 time. 



C. C. Morse & Co. expect to move 



into their new Market street store in 



; a few days. This will be the best 



, appointed and largest store of its kind 



in town. 

 ■ Charles Matraia recently returned 

 from a six months ' trip through Europe, 

 rope. 

 ; Charles Stoppenbeck, of the Ameri- 

 can Floral Co., is the latest retailer to 

 agree to the half-day Sunday closing. 

 This leaves but one firm in town that 

 remains open all day. 



J. P. Reddy, recently with the Siev- 

 ers-Cornwell Co., is now with Serveau 

 Bros, at their Fillmore street store. 



A visit to the houses of 6. W. Sim- 

 mons, at Elmhurst, shows plenty of 

 good stock coming on. The showing 

 of Beauties is fine at this time. 



The California Retail Florists' As- 

 sociation held a regular meeting at 

 Eagles' hall, October 4. 



M. H. Morse, of Piedmont, will re- 

 mov« his Piedmont avenue nursery 

 from its present location in a few 

 weeks, the ground having been sold 

 for other purposes. He will retain, 

 however, that portion at the cemetery 

 gate on which he has conducted a re- 

 tail flower and seed store for many 

 years. 



John Evans, of the Trumbull Seed 

 Co., has returned from a trip to Los 

 Angeles, and is in the harness again. 



FVed Grunewald, of Fruitvale, while 

 driving recently, was struck by an 

 electric car. His wagon was com- 

 pletely demolished and he received a 

 fractured leg and several minor 

 bruises, which necessitated his re- 

 moval to a hospital. 



George C. Pape, the greenhouse 



' builder of Berkeley, is at Santa Cruz 



as a delegate to the Odd Fellows' 



convention at present being held in 



, that town. G. 



POBTU^ND, OBE. 



Market conditions are slightly im- 

 proved, yet there is a lack of life to 

 the demand. Outdoor flowers are pass- 

 ing rapidly. What are left are hardly 

 usable. A slight frost would be wel- 

 comed, to clean out all outdoor stock, 

 which would create a demand along all 

 lines. Carnations are coming in nicely, 

 but are rather short in stem. Roses 

 also are producing nicely. Mums are 

 scarce and move rapidly. Auratums 

 are holding out remarkably and serve 

 . a useful purpose for funeral arrange- 

 ments. Violets, valley and orchids are 

 scarce, especially the latter. E. R. C.
