 thing in apple-pie order.

M. .T. H. 



A COPT of the official report of the 

 proceedings of the sixth annual niecting 

 of the American Park and Outdoor Art 

 Association, held at P.oston. Aug. o, G 

 and 7 last, has reached us from the sec- 

 retary. Mr. Charles M. Robinson. Roch- 

 ester. N. Y. It is a very intei-esting 

 <lncunient. 



The Market 



l!\isiness cinitinues good in oiw city 

 .ind everything looks bright for our 

 Th;inksgiving trade. A few heavy rain- 

 >torni^ during the past month have 

 lielped to shorten up the supply of out- 

 side stock, but stock remains equal to 

 the demand at most stores. 



Inside roses are not quite up to the 

 standard in quality. Carnations are fine. 



and bring g 1 prices. ( !hrysantlieiuums 



are the fad and immense quantities are 

 lieiug disposed of. Mrs. .Jerome Jones, 

 that beautiful wliite. was never seen finer 

 in our market. E. Dailledouze we have 

 for yellow; also Bonnation. In pink 

 Eda Prass and V.-Morel till the bill. Vi- 

 olets are grand. The wet. open weather 

 has greatly helped the quality of them 

 and prices remain firm. 



Prices: American Beauties. $2..')0 to 

 ■$3; short, 50 cents; Brides and Maids. 

 50 to 75 cents; Kaiserins, 50 cents; Lib- 

 erties, 50 to 75 cents; Brunners. Iti cents 

 ]ier dox. Carnations, llobarts. $1; mixed 

 fancies, 50 cents; Estelles. 35 to 50 

 cents; Scotts, 15 cents; Liawsons, 25 

 cents; Crockers. 15 to 25 cents; Portias. 

 15 cents; Hills, 25 cents, and Lorna, 35 

 cents; Valley, 50 cents per doz; paper 

 white. $1 per 100. Good maidenhair fern 

 remains scarce. Inside chrysanthemums, 

 $3 to $4; outside ones. 20 cents per doz. 

 Violet.s — Piincess, .$1.25; California, 75 

 cents to $1 per dozen bunches. 



J. Gilmore, Elmhurst. brings in the fin- 

 est Liljerties and Maids. 



Domoto is headquarters for the finest 

 chrysanthemums. Among those seen are 

 some grand Bonnaffons and Dailledouze 

 in yellow and Jones for white, with Mrs. 

 Hunt for pink. 



A. Galloway. Fruitvale, has a bench 

 of carnation Estelle that would Ik- worth 

 a long jouincy to have a peep at. All 

 the latest varieties are grown by Mr. 

 Galloway, but they all look cheap com- 

 pared with Estelle. Some weeks ago 

 while this young gentleman was prepar- 

 ing to throw out an old bench of Law- 

 sous he came across a beautiful white 

 sport growing among tlicni. 'I'lu' habit is 

 the same, only the color is a beautiful 

 white. What does this sport mean for 

 Mr. Galloway? A castle on '"Xob Hill," 

 or a castle in the air? It is to be hoped 

 the former. 



Floiists' Protective Union. 



At a recent meeting of the San Fran- 

 cisco Florists" Protective Union the fol- 

 lowing oflicers were elected to hold office 

 for one year: President. W. J. Forrest; 

 vice-president. J. Gilroy; financial seere- 

 taiy. J. C. Cappalman; recording secre- 

 tary. J. Canavaris; treasurer, J. Debano; 

 guide. C. Beverly; sergeant-at-arms, F. 

 Peterson. 



Business of all kinds w'ill be laid over 

 until after the holidays, when the union 

 will look after the interests of its mem- 

 bers. Ninety members are now on the 

 lolls, and new members are coining in at 

 each meeting. 



One of our San Francisco retailers 

 threatens to discharge all his men if they 

 join the Florists' Union, and will run his 

 business with girls (isn't that too bad! ). 

 How will it be if the girls form a union ? 

 It might be well if all the retailers in 

 San Francisco remember that they are 

 living in a union town which is ruled by 

 a union mavoi'. Unionism is the fad in 



our city at the present time, and it 

 seems to be nothing but union, union, 

 everywhere. Even our 'Frisco babies are 

 members of a union; 1 mean the regu- 

 lars. The volunteers are not in it.
