, Various Items. 



Summer has come in upon us seem- 

 ingly overnight, for to-day at noon the 

 thermometer registered 82 degrees in the 

 shade, and the end is not yet. Well, we 

 have had a good stifi winter and warm 

 weather is welcomed, even though we 

 know how it uses up stock. Even now 

 roses are showing the effects of the hot 

 sun. 



Eeally good stock in roses is scarce. 

 Meteors are coming in in increased quan- 

 tities and there are not so many bull- 

 heads. Liberty, too, is coming in in 

 much greater quantities, and, while the 

 color is not quite up to standard, it is 

 nevertheless, a first-class rose, and, if you 

 know how to grow it, it is ahead of 

 Meteor by far. 



Carnations are scarce in all colors and 

 all grades, and this has been the case 

 all season. Growers are very busy now 

 planting out their carnations in the field, 

 and a few have finished. The weather 

 has been good for this kind of work, but 

 at present a good rain would not be 

 amiss. 



Prices on all stocks are about the same 

 as quoted last week. General business 

 has been first-class and, notwithstanding 

 rather unfavorable weather, stock was 

 cleared out nicely. Of course carnations 

 being scarce were the best stock, but 

 .roses sold well also, there being plenty 

 of them to fill all orders. Bulbous stock 

 showed a tendency to drag, and some of 

 it remained unsold, but there was a very 

 large quantity of it in sight, and things 

 might have been worse. 



The bulbous stock in our parks is in 

 bloom and it is a grand sight. On the 

 small amount of money that Park Super- 

 intendent B. P. Critchell has at his dis- 

 posal he has done exceedingly well, and 

 is receiving just praise from the public. 



Max Rudolph is building three green- 

 houses, each 100 feet long. When com- 

 pleted there will be eight houses in his 

 plant. 



Benson Bros, have opened a branch 

 on Fourth street. There are already five 

 stores on this street within two squares, 

 and all seem to be doing a good business. 



Dock Sunderbruch has been appointed 

 receiver for the Clifton Rose Houses. 



Mrs. G. E. Foster, Cynthiana, Ky., was 

 a visitor. C. J. Ohmer. 



PORTLAND, OREGON. 



Buell Lamberson's Sons report a large 

 trade in roses this year and say this city 

 is milking quite an effort to acquire the 

 title the "Rose City" of the United 

 States. An Eastern nursery firm is seek- 

 ing to place a contract for the growing 

 of 20,000 roses with a local nurseryman, 

 and it is anticipated that in future this 

 city will supply many large Eastern con- 



San Antonio, Tex.— Arrangements 

 for the annual battle of flowers are on 

 a more elaborate scale than ever before.
