almost continuous sunshine and the color 

 of the roses has improved. Premier, 

 Eussell and Butterfly were also offered, 

 but there has been a drop in the cut of 

 Cecile Brunner. Columbia is in lighter 

 supply, but plentiful enough to fill 

 orders. 



Mums have become the leading flowers 

 of the market and local growers have 

 increased their cuts materially. Large 

 quantities of California mums are still 

 being received and from present indica- 

 tions there will be a heavy holiday de- 

 mand. 



The run on local violas is being short- 

 ened and orders for California violet 

 shipments were increased during the last 

 week by most houses. The cut of orchids 

 is light, but ample for trade needs, with 

 lilies still scarce. There is a suflScient 

 stock of gardenias. Bouvardias are an 

 attractive filler on corsage orders. The 

 supply of carnations has shown improve- 

 ment, both as to quality and quantity. 



Various Notes. 



Sales of bulbs, especially the winter- 

 flowering sort, are being pushed by a 

 number of the retail shops with good 

 results. Those shops offering stock for 

 spring planting have also been able to 

 report a steady sale. 



The Burns Floral Co. has been pur- 

 chased by Sylvester Muecci, who has 

 until recently been employed by Eosaia 

 Bros., Bert Linegar, and for a number 

 of years by Miss Anna Burns. The new 

 owner has assumed charge of the store, 

 while Miss Burns, the seller, will prob- 

 ably spend the winter in California. 

 The firm name will be continued. 



LaVerne Jackson spent three days last 

 week in Kitsap county on a hunting trip. 

 He rptunicd witli enough ducks to give 

 a dnck banquet to all of the store force 

 at a downtown cafe. 



S. A. Dnnlap, of the Hollywood 

 Gardens, and Mrs. Dunlap, were hosts 

 Saturday evening, October 30, to the 

 force of the city store at a Halloween 

 party, while the following evening R. G. 

 Slicker, northwest representative of 

 the A. L. Randall Co., entertained about 

 fifteen of the florists at a similar affair. 

 The decoration at the Dunlap home was 

 out of the ordinary. The hall lamp was 

 effectively camouflaged as a witch and 

 one of tlie larger rooms was converted
