The annual exhibit of tlie Portland 

 Kose Society was lield in the Multnomah 

 liotel last week. Melanie Soupert took 

 the premier prize and was the leading 

 variety of the entire show. W. E. 

 Sherbrooke had a creditable exhibit of 

 roses. 



There are too many flowers in the 

 market at present. During the rose fes- 

 tival the heavy receipts were easily 

 taken up, but now we have surpluses. 

 Last week the numerous school gradua- 

 tions had everybody occupied, but it 

 seems that the prices of the bouquets 

 in many cases did not leave mucli for 

 the till. W. G. W.

The Market. 



Althougli business seems to be well 

 up to normal for this time of the year, 

 the market is not in a liealthful condi- 

 tion. More llowers are being brought 

 in daily than can be absorbed without 

 sacrificing a large i)ercentage of them. 

 As is bound to be the case under the 

 circumstances, the street venders are 

 reaping their harvest, if they ever have 

 such. The warm weather of the last 

 week has not been an aid; in fact, the 

 sudden rise in temperature is held large- 

 ly responsible for the excessive supply 

 of flowers and the inevitable low prices. 

 The quality of the offerings has suf- 

 fered considerably. However, if other 

 conditions were favorable, there woidd 

 be little comi)laint on tliis score. When 

 all angles are considered, the market is 

 no worse than could be expected under 

 the pressure of such heavy receipts. 



While the supply is more than ample, 

 taken as a whole, there are a few items 

 for which exceptions must be made, 

 principally orchids, valley and good 

 American Beauty rjses. The glut ap- 

 plies particularly to carnations, sweet 

 peas and the numerous kinds of outdoor

summer flowers, such as stocks, gyi>- 

 sophilas, marguerites, cornflowers, scabi- 

 osas, coreopsis, etc. All roses liave suf- 

 fered from the heat, oi)eiiing small and 

 off color. Kussell is probably holding its 

 own as well as any other variety. Had- 

 ley also is comparatively good and is 

 selling well, despite the largo supply of 

 Rrunners. Beauties are aljout gone for 

 the summer, (lardenias are in good sup- 

 ])ly and receive more attention than 

 usual in wedding bouquets on account 

 of the scarcity of orchids and valley. 

 Baby gladioli will not last much longer 

 and peonies are about gone. The cut of 

 the large-flowering gladioli is increasing 

 from day to day; tlie toj) price at whole- 

 sale is 50 cents. Good snapdragons 

 may be had at $1 for six dozen. 



Contrary to behavior of other flowers 

 this year, dahlias are making their ap- 

 pearance early. Fine blooms of Delice 

 have been seen; also good flowers of 

 Minnie Burgle. A few greenhouse 

 chrysanthemums, of the Early Frost 

 variety, are offered, but they fail to 

 move with any degree of alacrity on 

 account of the great discrepancy be- 

 tween their price and that of the many
