lightful combination. Miss Eainford 

 says they have been in the store for sev- 

 eral weeks, so there is a hint here for 

 the wise decorator. 



If there is a busier man in San Diego 

 than George F. Otto, he will be hard to 

 find. A great deal of the fine stock 

 shown comes from Mr. Otto's own nurs- 



ery.

SAN FRANCISCO. 



The Market. 



There is an abundance of stock of all 

 descriptioHip, as usual here at this time 

 of the year. With the offerings on the 

 increase, some items are inclined to ac- 

 cumulate to a certain extent, but the 

 facts that shipping holds up well and 

 that local business is seasonably brisk, 

 seem to keep the surplus from becom- 

 ing burdensome. Prices are more or 

 less unstable, however, values depend- 

 ing largely upon the immediate demand. 



The feature at present is the heavy 

 crop of Darwin and other tulips. Large 

 shipments are coming from Eureka, Cal., 

 in addition to the stock grown in the 

 San Francisco bay region. The first part 

 of the week the best long-stemmed tulips 

 brought 75 cents per dozen, but, by 

 Wednesday, 60 cents was top price and 

 many were being sold as low as 25 cents. 

 Daffodils are still coming from the 

 north, but the local crop is about gone; 

 the best bring $1 per hundred. In the 

 wealth of miscellaneous flowers, anem- 

 ones and ranunculi are prominent items, 

 both in regard to supply and demand, 

 the former selling five or six dozen for 

 $1, and the latter. around 25 cents per 

 dozen. Peonies are starting and irises 

 are offered in limited quantity. Indoor 

 freesias are about gone, after a long 

 and successful run. The outdoor blooms 

 do not seem to take their place. Santa 

 Cruz growers have about stopped ship- 

 ments of these flowers to this market, 

 in view of the lack of interest accorded 

 them. Paper Whites are about finished, 

 but not missed, with so much other 

 stock available. 



The warm weather has brought out 

 more carnations than are needed and 

 the limit has nearly been reached on 

 the amount of roses that can be ab- 

 sorbed. Under the circumstances, it is 

 not surprising to see prices on the de- 

 cline. For local requirements, $2 per 

 dozen is about top price for Russell; 

 the better offerings of Columbia reach 

 $1.50 per dozen, while only a few Ophe- 

 lia, Shawyer, Radiance or Ward bring 

 more than $1.50 per bunch of two dozen. 



Violets are beginning to shorten up. 

 Unless the weather is cool and damp, it 

 is doubtful whether they will last until
