the south and east. He says everywhere 

 he visited he found much interest being 

 shown in the coming convention at 

 Houston, Tex. 



The E. W. McLellan Co. brought in a 

 fine cut of American Beauty roses for 

 Easter, a large percentage being the 

 finest specimens ever offered. Manager 

 Axell says they had many with stems 

 ten feet long. They had a nice cut of 

 Frau Karl Druschki roses. The company 

 had about 10,000 Lilium giganteum, and 

 found no difficulty in disposing of them. 

 They also brought in a big cut of 

 Spanish irises. 



Joe Proietti is bringing in a nice lot 

 of hawthorn, both white and red, and 

 some large irises. 



Domoto Bros, had a large cut of lilies 

 for Easter and a nice lot of spiraeas, 

 which they say sell better this year than' 

 they have for several seasons. They had 

 good rhododendrons, but these had 

 mostly bloomed before Easter. 



A few days before Easter the shop of 

 Podesta & Baldocchi, on Grant avenue, 

 looked like a bower of roses. A series 

 of arches extended across the store, the 

 rear being filled with a large windmill 

 and the sides banked with smaller plants. 

 With the roses as a background, the 

 lilies and other plants showed to excel- 

 lent advantage. 



The rambler rose was the predominat- 

 ing feature of the display at Joseph's, 

 but the effect was entirely different, 

 owing t6 the size and shape of the store. 

 The central feature was one of the large

SEATTLE. 



The Market. 



There has been a lively demand for 

 all kinds of flowers, cut and in pots. 

 Indications last week pointed to no 

 overproduction in any line, so that the 

 stores in all probability cleared on al- 

 most all their stock. As usual, lilies 

 are everywhere and the street venders 

 have more displayed this year than 

 ever before. There are none too many 

 and growers are entirely cleared of 

 plants in bloom. Spiraeas were not much 

 in demand and azaleas were quite 

 scarce. 



Various Notes. 



Ealph Eichardson last week com- 

 menced shipping cucumbers from his 

 plant at Brighton. He has a good crop. 



There was the usual influx of buyers 

 last week from neighboring towns look- 

 ing for Easter supplies. T. W. 



POKTLAND, ORE. 



The Market. 



The Easter rush, as this is being writ- 

 ten, obscures all other features of the 

 market, and everyone is so busy that 

 information is hard to obtain. Cut stock 

 is scarce and there seems to be no sur- 

 plus of potted plants. One or two large 

 bunches of lilies are behind time and 

 there is a scramble to get late supplies 

 of them. Funeral work and the de- 

 mands for flowers not prompted by Eas- 

 ter had taken a normal quantity of 

 stock. 



Club Meeting. 



At the meeting of the Portland Floral 

 Society held April 18, visitors answering 

 the roll call were R. 8. Woodworth, of 

 Eugene, and W. H. Dunham, director of 

 school gardens of Portland. A commit- 

 tee was authorized to study the state
