nected with the Market street store. 

 The outstanding feature of the appara- 

 tus is the manner in which the powder 

 is distributed over the plant or tree. 

 The operator can stand from eight to 

 ten feet from the plants to be dusted, 

 thus preventing the inhalation of any 

 of the fumes of the insecticide. The 

 powder is thrown in a cloud-like fashion 

 over the foliage, giving all parts of the 

 plant an even dusting. 



Al. J. Nevraumont, manager of the 

 California Seed Co., states that the 

 company has been overcrowded with 

 work the last month and finds it diffi- 

 cult to supply the demand for season- 

 able stock. Mr. Nevraumont mentioned 

 particularly the shortage of fruit trees.

The Market. 



Stock was still scarce last week, in 

 ^oth cut flowers and pot plants. All 

 growers reported lots of buds, but the 

 dull weather was responsible for the 

 Shortage. Local roses were at a pre- 

 mium and California roses were high 

 in price. Some fine freesias were on 

 the market and cleaned up readily. 

 ■ The demand last week was especially 

 heavy. Graduation exercises and the 

 annual automobile show were the chief 

 causes. Funeral work also helped to 

 create a demand. The call from the 

 trade in the neighboring towns for extra 

 stock in most cases had to be cut in 

 half. 



Various Notes. 



F. K. McCormick, of Post Falls, 

 Idaho, is shipping some fine calla lilies 

 and stevias and expects to be cutting 

 roses soon. 



A. J. Burt has decided that it is 

 appropriate to have music with flowers 

 and so has turned impresario, bringing 

 artists to town. Miss Alice Nielsen 

 appeared February 4. 



Eugene's Flower Shop had a large 

 wedding order January 21, which kept 

 the staff busy. 



R. Briggs, of Lewiston, Idaho, was 

 in town for a few days on business. 



Mr. Scott, of Scott Bros., Moscow, 

 Idaho, was in town calling on the trade. 

 He reports a big demand for stock and 

 is unable to fill all orders. H. H.
