ers, who are familiar with the wants of 

 customers in eastern markets, com- 

 plain that several of the festal days, 

 including Valentine's day, are poorly 

 observed here, in regard to flowers, 

 but dealers who have had many years* 

 experience in this market declare that 

 the custom of patronizing the florist 

 on these days is becoming more general 

 each year. So the situation is hopeful. 

 There is plenty of cut stock to fill 

 * all wants, perhaps excepting the roses. 

 Carnations are abundant and of fair, 

 though not prime, quality. Bulbous 

 stock is prime. Darwin tulips have 

 appeared. The prices of daffodils have 

 stiffened after a tendency to slump. 

 Fine orchids are shown, Cattleya Tri- 

 ansB and Lrelia Schrcederi being the 

 favorites. There still are offerings of 

 good cyclamens, begonias of the Lor- 

 raine type, primulas, azaleas, genistas, 

 cinerarias and ericas, which, with the 

 potted bulbous stock, make quite a 

 variety. The first open blooms from 

 outdoor laurustinus and Primula veris 

 have come in. Sweet peas are few and 

 of poor quality. The supply of home- 

 grown violets has increased and the 

 imported stock shows better quality. 

 Nurserymen are busy shipping orders 

 that accumulated during, the bad 

 weather. 



Club Meeting. 



About forty members attended the 

 meeting of the Portland Floral Society 

 held February 15. F. A. Van Kirk, 

 secretary of the growers' committee, 

 reported that copies of the letter relat- 

 ing to credits and authorized by the so- 

 ciety had been mailed to all dealers 

 whose addresses were available. He ex- 

 hibited a book in which the dealers' 

 names were alphabetically arranged, 

 with spaces for noting reports, and he 

 urged all the growers to report delin- 

 quencies in payment. This record will 

 be open to inspection by the growers. 

 A resolution authorizing the president 

 to send floral offerings in the name of 

 the society to the funerals of members 

 or of their immediate families, w^ of- 

 fered by the bor^'d- t)f- trtlsf ^s ana was 

 adapted. Two 'new mettibers were

elected and three applications for mem- 

 bership were made. 



The president called attention to the 

 need of public education as to what to 

 buy and what to avoid buying in bed- 

 ding stock, porch and lawn decorations, 

 ornamentals, etc., and how best to care 

 for them. On motion a committee of 

 three was authorized to prepare articles 

 for the spring garden sections of the 

 Sunday papers appearing early in 

 March. S. W. Walker, A. J. Clarke and 

 J. G. Bacher compose the committee. 



F. A. Van Kirk, secretary of the 

 committee on exhibitions^ reported that 

 the spaces in the floral center planned 

 for the rose festival, June 7, 8 and 9, 

 had been oversubscribed and final con- 

 tracts prepared for signing. The final 

 arrangement and location of the dis- 

 plays will be governed by the commit- 

 tee, in order to prevent clashes in color 

 or any other inharmonious feature. The 

 entertainment program consisted of a 

 general discussion of insecticides, which 

 was opened by ,T. F. W. De .Jong and A. 

 H. Harrison, representing the Tobacco 

 Products Co., of Louisville, Ky. In 

 relative cost and value, fumigating 

 was compared with spraying, and many 

 good ideas were offered by the visitors 

 and by the members as to the best 

 methods to use to control certain pests. 

 The meeting adjourned and all enjoyed 

 refreshments in the dining hall. 



Damages to greenhouse properties by 

 the recent star»^ were mentioned.
