The Market. 



During the last few days the market 

 iias been invaded by a flood of roses. 

 They are of excellent quality, but the 

 abundance has brought the price down 

 to the stage where, for the moment, 

 there is barely a margin of profit to the 

 growers. Tulips are also good and <|uito 

 plentiful, and as there is plenty of 

 other stock the market is exceptionally 

 well supplied. Some of the other stock 

 consists of sweet peas, marigolds, lilacs, 

 ranunculi, the last violets of spring, 

 freesias and many other spring flowers. 

 Business for the last few days has boen 

 quiet. 



Various Notes. 



F. C. Jaeger & Son have purchased 

 the retail business of the MacRorie- 

 McLaren Co. The deal was concluded 

 April 12. It is understood that for 

 some time past the MacRorie-McLaren 

 Co. has wished to close out its retail 

 business in order to devote its efforts 

 to the nurseries and landscape garden- 

 ing. F. C. Jaeger, Jr., said: "Our 

 store at 150 Powell street will he closed 

 June 1 and we took control of the 

 new store April 18." During the re- 

 mainder of April and May F. C. Jaeger 

 & Son will run both stores. 



The Retail Florists' Association of 

 San Francisco is preparing to decorate 

 the various Western Union offices for 

 Mothers' day. Telegraph deliverj' maps 

 and emblems will be used, in conjunc- 

 tion with banks of flowers. 



The purchase of a market by the Re- 

 tail Florists' Association of San Fran- 

 cisco is at a standstill for the moment. 

 No one wants two new markets. A 

 number of the growers have pledged 

 financial support to the plan of the re- 

 tailers to purchase a desirable site for 

 a market. Other growers, however,

seem to be going ahead with plans for a

 the growers who want a growers' mar- 

 ket has been deferred for a few days, 

 on account of the absence of the owner
