ing in some good violets, both single 

 and double. 



Niklas & Son and Clarke Bros, dis- 

 played the first genistas last week. 



E. C. Cook says the violets from Cali- 

 fornia still show the effect of frosts. 



The Tonseth Floral Co. and O. B. 

 Panzer both ran out of fuel during 

 the traffic tie-up. The former got re- 

 lief with improvised sleds, hauled by 

 teams, and the latter chopped down 

 some trees standing nearby and packed 

 in the green wood on his own and his 

 helpers' backs. 



James M. Wickizer, formerly of 

 Plymouth, Ind., died at his home in 

 Hillsboro, Ore., February 2. He came 

 to Oregon in 1911 and continued in the 

 nursery and florists' business, which he 

 had followed in Indiana. His death 

 followed a stroke of heart failure Jan- 

 uary 10. 



The Wilson & Crout Co. and Clarke 

 Bros, suffered losses from a collapse of 

 part of their palm houses under the 

 weight of snow and ice. Most of the 

 stock was saved. 



W. Thompson made the rounds of the 

 greenhouses last week, taking orders 

 for glass and repair materials. 



C. C. Euenitz reports a fair run of 

 business in funeral work. He was 

 called out one of the stormiest days to 

 act as pallbearer at the funeral of a 

 lodge brother. 



Martin & Forbes displayed some un- 

 usually good cyclamens and their show- 

 ing of orchids was especially fine. 



The ice storm killed all the outdoor 

 Dracaena indivisa not wrapped. 



The pines, firs, maples and beeches 

 appeared to suffer the greatest amount 

 of damage. S. W. W. 



SEATTLE, WASH. 



The Market. 



The inclement weather last week re- 

 tarded business of all kinds and the 

 florists suffered more than others. The 

 heavy snowfall practically tied up the 

 car service, so that it was a difficult 

 matter for people to get to the business 

 sections. A scarcity of customers was 

 met by a corresponding scarcity in the

supply of flowers, and little was done 

 except in funeral work. Now, however, 

 there is something doing in the flower 

 stores. Preparations were made for 

 Valentine's day, but none of the con- 

 cerns seemed to think it worth their 

 while to advertise in the local papers, 

 as is done in the east, a method of 

 securing business that should not have 

 to be brought to the notice of readers 

 in this locality. 



Various No:tes. 



The Orpheum Floral Co. has complete- 

 ly remodeled the front of its store on 

 Third avenue. The two entrance doors 

 have been removed and larger windows 

 installed on each side of the entrance, 

 making the display more attractive and 

 improving the appearance of the store. 



The Burdett Co., for years at First 

 avenue and Denny Way, has discontin- 

 ued business. A meeting of creditors 

 will be held and the disposition of the 

 property and effects decided on. 



The snowfall of last week did much 

 damage to local greenhouses. Green- 

 housemen have the habit of expecting 

 little snow and do not build houses with 

 the stability that sometimes is evident- 

 ly necessary. Consequently, many now 

 are mourning houses level with the 

 ground, destroyed crops and vanished 

 hopes. Some of them, by dint of in- 

 creased firing and use of shovels and 

 rakes, managed to keep their houses al- 

 most intact, , but I have heard of no 

 place that came off immune, except 

 that of a youth who is said to have in-

stalled steam pipes close to the glass 

 and thus kept the snow melting. The 

 Broadway Floral Co., at Everett, ap- 

 pears to be the heaviest loser. Some of 

 the Brighton growers lost part of their 

 ranges, the Carl Melby place went down 

 entirely and Mr. Melby also lost a house 

 on the other side of Lake Washington. 

 At M. G. Buckley's, at Ballard, of 

 which Gustave Bjorkman is tenant, one 

 house 30x150 was destroyed and an ad- 

 joining one damaged. This winter will 

 long be remembered by greenhousemen, 

 and if anyone should express any desire 

 to see "the beautiful snow" there is 

 likely to be some beautiful language. 



A meeting of the retail florists was 

 held last week and a unanimous de- 

 cision was arrived at to close all flower 

 stores earlier in the evening and Sun- 

 days. In the future the stores will 

 close at 8:30 p. m. every evening, at 

 10 p. m. Saturdays and at 1 o'clock 

 Sundays. 



Arthur Zirkman, of the M. Rice Co., 

 Philadelphia, was here last week.
