W. C. Franklin, of Dibble & Franklin, 

 Salem, was also a visitor and displayed 

 a fine collection of tulips, including 

 twenty one varieties. Mr. Franklin 

 stated tiiat lliesc tulips were all pro- 

 duced from home-grown bulbs and were 

 grown on clay soil. 



Various Notes. 



Martin & Forbes have given the in- 

 terior of their store a new coating of 

 white enamel, which adds much to the 

 a])|>earance. 



Dibble & Franklin, of Salem, whose 

 tuli])s were exhibited at the meeting of 

 the Portland Floral Society, have been 

 exju'rimenting for about five vears and 

 now Jiave about 00,000 bulbs. The 

 methods of curing and storing are now 

 occu])ying their attention and when 

 those have been jjcrfected they feel 

 that they will be able to go into it 

 more extensively. They have proved, 

 to their own satisfaction at least, that 

 bulbs of better (juality can be grown 

 here than those which have been com- 

 insr from abroad. L. T. S.

Mothers' Day. 



Mothers' day found the market far 

 from being able to meet the demand. 

 Koscs were the only item that came 

 anywhere near being plentiful enough. 

 Most of the stores report more business 

 than was expected. Prices varied, some 

 getting $3 per dozen for carnations, 

 while otliers only asked $2, owing to a 

 misunderstanding in regard to the price 

 they should be sold at. Plants sold 

 well, but there was a shortage of the 

 larger ones. 



The Market. 



Stock of all kinds has been scarce 

 since Mothers' day, as everything was

Well, Sir — It's been just a year since I bought my 

 Cut Flower Refrigerator from Gloekler's — and let 

 me tell you! — I've sold more cut flowers in a 

 single year than 1 did in any two years before. 

 Customers come in just to look around for something 

 nice — they see that beautiful Display Refrigerator 

 standing there just chock full of Beauty— and bless 

 my soul if it don't just seem to make them buy! 

 The money 1 put into its purchase is the best 

 investment 1 ever made for my business."
