it appeared that the blooms would be in 

 good shape. All growers were urged to 

 enter their blooms this year, as the 

 prizes were worth competing for. There 

 were fifty-two trophies offered in the 

 various classes, including twenty-nine 

 bronze medals. The show was in the 

 Rhodes Bros, roof garden. B. G.

The Market. 



The weather has continued cool, with 

 considerable rain, the ground finally 

 having become soaked after the long 

 drought. Asters suffered somewhat, but 

 it is expected they will revive. Sweet 

 peas have disappeared from the market. 

 Gladioli are becoming scarce. Lilies 

 still are plentiful. Eoses are of better 

 quality, as are carnations. There are 

 some chrysanthemums in the market, but 

 it will be several weeks before they are 

 plentiful. There are a few good blue 

 delphiniums, a color that is welcome. 

 Business has been about normal, with 

 the usual run of funeral and wedding 

 work. 



Various Notes. 



The county fair at Gresham last week 

 was of interest to the trade, H. A. 

 Lewis, the nurseryman, and Mr. Gill, 

 the dahlia grower, being interested in 

 the management, while members of the 

 Portland Floral Society contributed the 

 flower beds, which were planted in 

 July and were in fine condition. They 

 contained dahlias, marigolds, geraniums, 

 heliotropes, cannas, roses and otlier flow- 

 ers. A. J. (Clarke, J. Fcser and .T. II. 

 Wood acted as judges and awarded 

 prizes to O. E. Panzer, tlie Mountain 

 View Floral Co. and "William E. Dungev. 

 The Gill Bros. Seed Co. liad a fine ex- 

 hibit of dalilias and tlie Monntain View 

 Floral Co. sliowed roses. 



Representatives of the siip[)ly houses, 

 who have visited Portland, say their 

 orders have been of good size, denoting 

 that the trade expects a goo<l business 

 this fall. 



Growers are becoming alinincd over 

 the bulb situation. The supply of For- 

 mosa lily bulbs from Japan is a month 

 overdue. Paper White and Roman nar- 

 cissus bulbs are on their way, some al- 

 ready having been received. Two grow- 

 ers have received word that Dutch
