are 



now offered. White and yellow 

 scarce and red is in little demand. 



Next to the roses, gladioli occupy the 

 leading position. Receipts have in- 

 creased rapidly in the last week and the 

 market now is well supplied. Perhaps 

 the most popular variety is Myrtle, use- 

 ful for a large variety of retail purposes, 

 but it would be difficult to find anything 

 finer than the Halley now coming in con- 

 siderable quantity from a score or more 

 of shippers. Pendleton and Pink Beauty 

 also are in large supply. Gladioli are 

 selling well, but the price has fallen 

 with increased supplies. 



With the practical disappearance of 

 carnations, asters have become much 

 more abundant. They always sell well 

 at this time and all good stock is mov- 

 ing steadily. It seems that weather 

 conditions are giving the aster growers 

 a better chance for profit than they have 

 had for several years. 



Other indoor flowers are practically 

 limited to lilies, valley and a few cat- 

 tleyas, each of which is fully equal to 

 any present demand. There are large 

 quantities of garden flowers, as the 

 weather has been favorable. These are 

 not good shipping subjecta, in most in- 



lonn.

stances, but the local retailers are buy- 

 ing them in quantity, finding that their 

 customers like variety. 



Shipping trade is holding up better 

 than in any previous season. The prin- 

 cipal demand is for roses, but there is 

 a fair call for everything else in the 

 list. As a whole the trade at this center 

 is better satisfied with summer busi- 

 ness than ever before. No one is com- 



plaining. The July business is taken •• 

 foreshadowing another big season. 



Randall's Employees' Outing. 



Except for the cut flower department, 

 which almost never closes, the A. L. 

 Randall Co. suspended business Satur- 

 day, July 24, to permit its employees to 

 hold their first annual picnic. The fes- 

 tivities began at 10 a. m. and lasted:
