must be laatinsr, convenient and efficient. They must be constructed 

 in accordance with the principles which have been approved by knowl- 

 edge and experience. We have been in the greenhouse manufacturing 

 business for many years and our experience is at your disposal.

 extra large primroses and ferns within 

 the next few weeks. 



A good week-end total of business 

 marked New Year's day at the Wood- 

 lawn Flower Shoj), with potted offerings 

 the best sellers. This shop handled sev- 

 eral large decorations last week, includ- 

 ing the dining room of the Elks' club, 

 for the annual New Year's dinner. Sil- 

 vered huckleberry leaves, bronzed salal 

 leaves and many baskets of yellow pom- 

 pons were used on this occasion. For 

 another occasion the Seattle Yacht 

 Club 's house was decorated with holiday 

 flowers, cedar roping and colored rocks, 

 with goldfish bowls to reproduce natural 

 basins about the ballroom. Harry A. 

 Crouch, proprietor of this shop, was pre- 

 sented on New Year's with a handsome 

 leather gun case and a pair of driving 

 gloves by the employees of the firm. 



Ferns proved about the best-selling 

 item with the City Flower Shop last 

 week, medium and large sizes changing 

 hands rapidly. This shop has about the 

 best Hadley roses on hand at this time. 



Mrs. Lloyd Martin, whose husband is 

 connected with the Woodlawn Flower 

 Shop, underwent an operation at St. 

 Luke's hospital last week. 



Thomas Swift has been added to the 

 staff of the Pinehurst Floral Shop. Em- 

 ployees of this concern gave a surprise 

 birthday party to F. A. Allen December 

 26 at his home. He was presented with 

 a gold Eversharp pencil. Mr. and Mrs. 

 Allen were Vancouver, B. C, visitors 

 over the New Year's holiday. 



William Langhout has been calling on 

 the local trade. He reports a good de- 

 mand for bulbs this season in most parts 

 of the country. 



Last-minute purchases by West Seat- 

 tle residents were the means of cleaning 

 up the holiday stock of H. M. Hanson 

 in good order this season. Medium- 

 priced potted offerings were most fre- 

 quently in demand among these buyers. 



Mrs. J. A. Hankins has returned from 

 Portland, Ore., whither she was called 

 liy the illness of her mother. The latter 

 is reported as entirely recovered. 



Lighter deliveries from the green- 

 house are reported at Hollywood Gar- 

 dens, with potted items and novelty 

 baskets the best sellers of late. The at- 

 tention of passers-by was attracted dur- 

 ing this week by a novel arrangement 

 of blooming primroses. A long basket 

 was filled with low plants, giving the 

 effect of an elliptical mass of blooms
