The Market. 



On the whole, June was a fairly good 

 month for the local florists, but it is 

 conceded that wedding decorations did 

 not play so important a part in the 

 month's business as they usually do. 

 Things naturally seem quiet this year in 

 comparison with last, when there was 

 much extra business in connection with 

 the many conventions and other fes- 

 tivities brought about by the P. P. I. 

 E. However, there are few complaints, 

 as business generally is up to expecta- 

 tions. Shipping business continues ac- 

 tive, which helps out considerably in 

 disposing of the large quantities of 

 stock pouring into the market. 



Gladioli continue to dominate the 

 market; Panama now is coming in fine- 

 ly, and America and Mrs. Francis King 

 show excellent quality. Dahlias are 

 arriving abundantly and the good stock 

 is readily absorbed, which gives promise 

 that the record business done with this 

 flower during the exposition period will 

 be repeated, as far as possible, this

year. Asters now are well represented, 

 but the height of their season still is 

 in the future. Some good carnations 

 are to be had and these bring fair 

 prices, but the great bulk of the offer- 

 ings are inferior and cheap. Any quan- 

 tity may be purchased from the street 

 venders at 15 cents per dozen, or two 

 dozen for 25 cents. Sweet peas are 

 good for this time of the year. 



A few lilies are offered and they 

 clean up easily. There are stocks, corn- 

 flowers, coreopsis, etc. In fact, all sum- 

 mer stock is in great supply, especially 

 statice, gypsophilas and scabiosas. The 

 present supply of zinnias shows excep- 

 tionally fine quality. Hydrangeas, both 

 pink and blue, are plentiful and have 

 a good sale. There is little change in 

 the rose situation since last reported, 

 with the exception that Beauties are 

 rapidly going off crop. Russell and 

 Hadley are in heavy supply and the fine 

 offerings of Ophelia make that rose 

 more popular than ever. Gardenias are 

 off crop and orchids continue in light

Various Notes. 



D. Raymond, of the Garden City Pot- 

 tery 'Co., says that enormous quan- 

 tities of plants are being potted in this 

 vicinity this year, judging from the 

 large orders for pots being placed with 

 his company. Mr. Raymond expects to 

 leave shortly for Santa Cruz on a two 

 weeks' fishing trip. 



J. Murata is making a large plant- 

 ing of chrysanthemums under cloth at 

 his place on High street, Oakland. 



H. Plath, president of the Pacific 

 Coast Horticultural Society, has re- 

 turned from a two weeks' trip to the
