PORTLAND. ORE. 



Local reports ,tiii1 those by wireless 

 telegraphy from Salem, Oregon City, 

 Montavilla and Albina all indicate a brisk 

 demand for cut flowers. There is noth- 

 ing going begging now. Our chief anx- 

 iety in the past two weeks has been how 

 to get enough stock to do justice to our 

 patrons. Landslides on the Southern Pa- 

 cific seriously affected traffic and for sev- 

 eral days consignments from California 

 were of no commercial value when re- 

 ceived. Our growers have also had their 

 troubles, for it has rained successively 

 for forty days and forty nights. Only 

 for a few minutes at a time and with 

 long intermissions has the sun consented 

 to smile on us. While the present atmos- 

 pheric conditions are not conducive to 

 producing roses and carnations, yet I 

 venture to state that in no other part 

 of the country can bulbous stock be 

 grown to such perfection as here. There 

 is a fine supph- and all of the highest 

 grade and some very pretty window dec- 

 orative effects are seen. 



St. Valentine's proved a red letter day 

 to the florists. E.xperience has taught us 

 that we can arouse public sentiment by 

 introducing appropriate novelties, and 

 sales were far in advance of those of a 

 year ago. And then came the Chinese 

 New Year, which is celebrated for a 

 whole week by our 3.000 Mongolian in- 

 habitants. The Jap may be the better 

 fighter, but the Chinaman spends more 

 liberally for ilowers. The azalea is a 

 favorite with them and we make it a 

 point to be well supplied for that special 

 occasion, as they willingly pay from $2 

 to $5 for a plant. 



Since my last writing we have been 

 favored with several distinguished visit- 

 ors. W. G. Schucht. representing C. C. 

 Pollworth Co.. is making his first trip to 

 the coast and is booking some fat orders 

 for plants and wire goods. He was fol- 

 lowed closely by Arnold Ringier. in the 

 interests of Barnard & Co., who visits us 

 regularly once a year. The genial Arnold, 

 with his rare gift for story telling, is 

 very popular on the coast. 



We teere also pleased to receive a call 

 from Sam Murray, the well-known florist 

 of Kansas City, Mo., who is touring the 

 west. He leaves here for California, 

 where we hope he will be more favor- 

 ably impressed with the western climate.
