called on the trade in this city and 

 Tacoma recently. 



SPOKANE, WASH. 



The Market. 



The continued dull weather has had 

 a serious effect on the stock; in fact, 

 Spokane was never so short of flowers 

 before. The last of the chrysanthe- 

 mums arrived last week. Bulbous stock 

 is starting to arrive, but not in sufficient 

 quantity to meet the demand. Potted 

 tulips and hyacinths are to be seen and 

 find a ready sale. 



Various Notes. 



A large number of the florists and 

 their wives are on the sick list. The an- 

 niial banquet was postponed on this ac- 

 count. 



William Berry, of Donart's House of 

 Flowers, has resigned. 



E. Hedger, of the Davenport Flower 

 Shop, has bought an automobile. 



All flower shops have been busy this 

 month with funeral work, the flu being 

 the cause of most deaths at present. 



The Glenrose Greenhouses are send- 

 ing in some fine Laddie, in spite of the 

 fact that about all the help have been 

 sick. 



H. E. Beimers has a fine window dis- 

 play of cinerarias. 



The Spokane Florist Co. was handi- 

 capped by the illness of most of its em- 

 ployees and their families. H. H. 



SAN FRANCISCO, CAI.. 



The Market. 



The report comes from the local ship- 

 ping establishments of a volume of busi- 

 ness unprecedented in the history of 

 the trade. Many of the San Francisco 

 shippers say that they have never ex- 

 perienced such a large St. Valentine's 

 day business. Orders from the east 

 were arriving in such quantities that it 

 was extremely difficult to meet the de- 

 mand. Flowers of all kinds were none 

 too plentiful and the shortage of roses 

 is still a noticeable factor in the busi- 

 ness of the month. 



With the exception of one or two 

 nurseries, which are now beginning to 

 cut the second rose crop, growers can- 

 not promise any large amount of cut 

 stock until the end of February, or the 

 first part of March. According to one 

 of the prominent growers of this dis- 

 trict, who recently made a trip through 

 the central part of the state visiting 

 the various nurseries, it will be at least
