Eugene's Flower Shop held a dahlia 

 show in the Crescent tea room recently, 

 which proved a success. Some fine spec- 

 imens were shown.

Entirely satisfactory business was re- 

 ported last week, with enough funeral 

 work on hand to clean up all holdings 

 and to force the majority of the retail 

 stores to work the greater part of Sun- 

 day. There were no novelties to offer 

 in the way of cut flowers, but cycla- 

 mens were added to the list of potted 

 offerings. Begonias were more numerous 

 and met with a ready sale. 



There have been rather frequent rains, 

 heavy enough to beat the outdoor stock

The cut of roses has been lighter 

 so far as most varieties are concerned, 

 with Butterfly, Columbia and Ward

 Crusader, of which there is not enough 

 to go around at the present time. Cecile 

 Brunner is increasing in demand, now 

 that there is a large enough supply of 

 locally grown violas to fill orders for 

 simple corsages. One of the Spokane 

 growers will soon be offering American 

 Beauty stock of fine quality. 



Dahlias are at about the height of 

 their season now and are of excellent 

 color and quality. Gladioli are more 

 streaked as to quality in late deliveries, 

 there being a quick sale for the larger 

 flowers with their long stems and enough 

 funeral work to clean up all the shorter- 

 stemmed offerings. There has been some 

 reduction in the cut. Rains have reduced 

 the cut of asters also, but the increas- 

 ing supply of California mums has pre-
