lated this and a more stable market is 

 in sight for the year-around dealers. 



At the regular meeting of the Florists' 

 Club it was decided to hold a special 

 meeting September 21 to make arrange- 

 ments for a florists' building at the west- 

 ern Washington fair, at Puyalluj), in 

 October. It is proposed that all the 

 dealers, both retail and wholesale, make 

 an exhibit as a whole. The building is 

 to be called Floral hall. The fair lasts 

 one week and 40,000 people visit it each 

 year. L. B. M.

The Maxket. 



A demand for funeral pieces of me 

 dium price and light deliveries kept the 

 market cleaned up in good shape last 

 week and retail establishments indicate 

 rather a scarcity of stock. 



Potted jilants are beginning to com- 

 mand a good share of the consumer's 

 interest. These have been featured in 

 the window disi)lays of nearly all the 

 shops. At present, cyclamens, begonias 

 and primroses are offered and the qual- 

 ity of the first named plants is every 

 thing that could be asked. Ferns in 

 the smaller sizes are also good sellers. 



California mums are being shown and 

 last week saw the first real offerings of 

 full-sized home-grown stock. The south- 

 ern stock is not being shipped in freely, 

 however, since the prices asked iliacour- 

 age buying. Local growers of pompons 

 are deiivering all that the market will

care for at this time. Good stock is 

 being grown this year. Dahlias are 

 still being shown, but not in such large 

 quantities as were shown before. Some 

 of the yellow shades are being featured 

 in a number of sliojis, with good results. 

 The most common long-stemmed dowers 

 are gladioli, which are still jiresent in 

 j)rofusion, •■ind only active sales efforts 

 on the part of retailers have prevente(l 

 an ()versui)ply from developing. 



The cut of roses has increased, but 

 there is no difficulty in moving all the 

 good lots. Butterily is probably the 

 lender in ((uality. Several growers a<l- 

 vise that the late croji of Flrich Hrun- 

 ner promises to make an exceptional 

 showing and that deliveries will be start- 

 ing soon. Carnations are in light supply 

 and demand. Orchids continue scarce, 

 with lilies and stephanotis plentiful

 been offering a variety of shrubbery and 

 these highly colored offerings have been 

 substituted for the more common maple 

 leaves in a numbei- of recent decorations. 



Various Notes. 



Walter Scdtt. of Scott & Son, is re- 

 ceiving the sincere condolenee of the 

 entire trade over the sudden death of 

 his father, (i. W. Scott, last week. 



An unusual luncheon setting was de- 

 veloj)ed by the Hollywood Gardens for 

 one of the local clubs last week. Yel- 

 low dahlias, red barberry and maiden- 

 hair fern were combined in the long 

 center j)ieces, while two .Tiqianese bas- 

 kets containing red apples, white graj)es, 

 barberry and mountain ash took the 

 place of conventional end pieces. The 

 idea ef thia decoration was to secure a
