The Rorii^' Review 



November 14, 1912. 



November 2, the Concordia Club build- 

 ing being decorated from top to bot- 

 tom on the occasion of a dance and 

 banquet. Yellow mums were used in 

 the rooms, with great quantities of 

 palms and greens. An unusually heavy 

 rush of funeral work the same day kept 

 everyone busy. H. K. Richards. 



SAN FBANCISCO. 



The Market. 



We have been treated to a few show- 

 ers during the last few days and every- 

 thing has freshened up considerably in 

 consequence. Business is fair, but not 

 as lively as it might be at this time. 

 The prospects are good, however, for 

 plenty of trade in the near future. Vio- 

 lets are in heavy supply, in consequence 

 of the weather, and have improved in 

 quality greatly; they cost the retailers 

 60 cents per dozen bunches. Inside 

 roses and carnations are not moving as 

 well as they might, but this is on ac- 

 count of the heavy supplies of mums 

 that are being brought to town daily. 

 Of these there has been an oversupply 

 for the last two weeks, though at pres- 

 ent, owing to the big football match on 

 Saturday next, they are being held 

 somewhat higher than they were. Val- 

 ley and orchids are in good quantity, 

 without any excess being noted. Some 

 late blooming longiflorums are seen and 

 they move well. Other kinds of stock 

 are about as usual. 



Various Notes. 



Geo. C. Koeding, of the Fancher Creek 

 Nurseries, at Fresno, is in town for a 

 few days. 



The Tri-City Floral Co., recently lo- 

 cated in the Pantages theater building, 

 Oakland, has retired from the retail 

 business. 



The Alameda County Floral Society 

 has been organized, with J. M. Carroll, 

 of Dimond avenue, Fruitvale, Cal., as 

 secretary. 



Podesta & Baldocchi are receiving 

 some extra fine clusters of phalsenopsis 

 from J. A. Carbone, of West Berkeley. 



The department stores are handling 

 some bulbs, as usual, this year. They 

 are selling them at a much closer 

 margin than the dealers find it neces- 

 sary to do, however, and certainly are 

 content to make an infinitesimal profit. 



E. H. Rust, the well known dealer of 

 Pasadena, Cal., is in town. 



This week's obituary column con- 

 tains a report of the death of J. F, C. 

 Ludemann, of this city, and Henry 

 Gresens, of Alameda. G. 



LOOMIS AND VICINITY. 



The season has been favorable for 

 outdoor blooms and they still are plenti- 

 ful. 



The cuttings season has started in 

 earnest and all the florists in this vi- 

 cinity are busy. Plants never looked 

 better and the cuttings are large and 

 full. 



Bassett's Floral Gardens are starting 

 an addition to their houses. 



Loomis Carnation Co. has for some 

 time been experimenting with Harrisii 

 and longiflorum and the Messrs. Roddan 

 think they will be able to produce bulbs 

 that will be as good as, if not better 

 than, the foreign bulbs; at least they 

 are getting some fine outdoor blooms. 



Don't pay money to traveling sub- 

 scription canvassers.
