Mr. Wilson's family has made its home 

 in Bellingham. 



Local florists have agreed on a deliv- 

 ery charge of 10 cents on orders under 

 $1 and 15 cents for suburban deliveries 

 of the same amount. The people thus 

 far have willingly paid the added 

 charge. The florists this season will 

 hold carnations at $1 per dozen and vio- 

 lets at 25 cents per bunch. 



W. Case, formerly of Horst's flower 

 store, is now with the Hollywood Gar- 

 dens, Seattle. 



The demand for chrysanthemums tliis 

 year has been exceedingly heavy. The 

 Floral Exchange, which had mums early 

 in September, has been short of stock 

 since the first arrivals, owing to the 

 heavy demand. However, there has 

 been a slightly decreased demand for 

 roses. 



The fall flower show held in Septem- 

 ber was well up to that of any other 

 year, the exhibits being surpassingly 

 fine. The feature of the show was a 

 Lilium auratum with 200 odd blooms. 



With one of the largest government 

 bulb gardens in the country at her door, 

 Bellingham is facing a famine in bulbs. 

 The government has properly agreed to 

 sell no bulbs, and florists are unable to 

 get a sufficient supply from importers. 

 Local and California bulbs are selling 

 readily, but the varieties are limited. 



Express shipments have gotten 

 through promptly thus far. Florists 

 had been somewhat worried over get- 

 ting California violets, but there is no 

 indication of any delays along this 

 coast. Service this year promises to ])g 

 up to that of last. 



The theaters are using flowers exten- 

 sively this year, several season con- 

 tracts for decorating liaving been let. 

 The effect is being reliecte<l in other 

 lines of business. 



The Bellingham Bull) Garden — not 

 the government farm — brought in the 

 first local chrysanthemums October 10. 



The Snohomish Floral Co. has l)eon 

 shipping to the local market some extra 

 fine gladioli and Easter lilies.
