The Market. 



Generally unchanged conditions ex- 

 isted in the market last week, there 

 being about the same volume of local 

 receipts to figure on, nearly as heavy 

 ■California shipments as for the week 

 ending Mothers' day and enough busi- 

 ness to keep the floor stocks well 

 cleared. The prices have been main- 

 tained on most offerings, hydrangeas be- 

 ing about the only exception to this 

 rule. They are getting well past their 

 high point and there are so many new 

 spring lines seen that they sell rather 

 slowly. 



Most of the stores have had a brisk 

 sale on Ijcdding stock, but the individual 

 sales are lighter than they have been 

 in previous years. This is the natural 

 consequence of the higher prices, since 

 in former years geraniums were on sale 

 as low as 50 cents per dozen plants, 

 while this year the trade has been 

 forced to charge several dollars per 

 dozen; pansy plants are about double 

 the prices of previous seasons and other 

 bedding plants are up in proportion. 

 At the same time, the increase in the 

 number of new homes last year means 

 that altogether about as many plants 

 will be sold this year as in 1910. 



Local peonies are arriving and have 

 been commanding a ready sale, although 

 deliveries of California stock are not 

 <^xpected until after Memorial day. The 

 splendid clean-up of all southern ship- 

 ments [Motliers' day was naturally re- 

 flected in the orders placed for Memorial 

 day. 



Local growers of sweet peas report 

 mainly a between-season period and 

 Yakima growers have been getting their 

 innings, as they are now the biggest 

 commercial shippers of the northwest. 

 Tlieir stock shows wonderful color, al- 

 though its shortness of stem limits its 

 use to a certain degree. The prices on 

 sweet peas have not broken as other 

 spring lines have become more plentiful. 



The sale of the various s])ring bulb- 

 ous offerings has been holding up well 

 and some tine crimson, ileep red and 

 yellow Darwins have been arriving from 

 the various local greenhouses. Potted 

 tulips have been a little less active, but
