SAN FBANCISCO. 



- The Market. 



The month of August was a fairly 

 good one, taking the San Francisco 

 market as a whole. There was plenty 

 of good stock and the demand caused 

 few complaints. Some kinds of cut 

 flowers did not show the excellent qual- 

 ity they do when at their prime, but 

 there were many other really tine flow- 

 ers to substitute with in most cases. 

 The only real shortage occurred in or- 

 chids, valley and gardenias. Roses con- 

 tinue to improve, but there still is con- 

 siderable poor stock on the market, 

 which finds a slow demand. The cut 

 of baby roses is better, both in quan- 

 tity and quality, and good Killarney 

 roses are being received. Chrysanthe- 

 mums are more plentiful each day, 

 mostly white and yellow, although some 

 nice pink varieties are beginning to ar- 

 rive. The demand is fairly good, but 

 prices are not up to expectations. 



Good carnations are scarce, with 

 prices about normal; the lower grades 

 . are extremely cheap. There is a splen- 

 did cut of Lilium tigrinum, which moves 

 without much difliculty. Quantities of

asters find a ready market, but the sup- 

 ply is too great to clean up closely. 

 Dahlias are at their height and are 

 having a better sale than ever before. 

 The gladioli are going off crop rapidly, 

 but some ]^e stock still is arriving. 

 Zinnias continue plentiful and popular, 

 as well as amaryllis. A limited quan- 

 tity of cut cyclamens and primulas is 

 readily absorbed. 



Various Notes. 



Everything is in readiness for the 

 big dahlia show to be held in the ball- 

 room of the Palace hotel September 7

 Entries have been received from as far 

 north as Seattle and as far south as 

 San Diego, and the committee in 

 charge is confident that the display will
