morial day trade, and there has been a 

 nice gain in transient business. 



The Woodlawn Flower Shop used 

 relics of the recent war, old-fashioned 

 hand cannons of the Spanish-American 

 ■war and paraphernalia used in the Civil 

 war as foreground ornaments in the 

 most elaborate holiday window devel- 

 oped locally, while the center was giyen 

 over to a huge magnolia leaf wreath 

 before a large American flag and 

 backed by a curtain of the same shade 

 as the magnolia leaves. The size of this 

 window, and the use of red, white and 

 blue lights all combined to create a 

 great deal of local comment concern- 

 ing it. 



Kenney's reports a brisk funeral 

 trade for the last week, and a big in- 

 crease in business for the Memorial day 

 activities. 



William S. Goldsbary, Pacific coast 

 representative of the A. L. Eandall Co., 

 Chicago, has been temporarily making 

 his headquarters at the wholesale house 

 during his stay at home. 



The Bon Marche Flower Shop has de- 

 veloped a steady increase in business 

 as the summer goes on, and Irving Har- 

 ris attributes this to proper choice of 

 merchandise, so that prices appealing 

 to department store buyers can be suc- 

 cessfully charged. 



General trade has been increasing 

 with the Orpheiun Floral Co., although 

 business has been "streaked" of late, 

 in that one or two days will bring a 

 good share of the week's total business. 



Ealph Richardson has completed the 

 basement of a fine new 8-room residence 

 he is erecting at Bryn Mawr. This will 

 cost in the neigliborhood of $5,500. 



Members of the bowling team of the 

 Seattle Florists' Association are in 

 active training for the coming trip to 

 Portland for the Pprtland-Tacoma-Seat- 

 tle meet and, from the scores rolled in 

 practice, they are going to make a good 

 showing when this event is held. 



The City Flower Shop has been active 

 lately in moving medium-sized potted 

 offerings, and the fine way these have 

 been displayed in the windows has been 

 a big factor in this success. II. M.

The first application is made as soon 

 as the young plants appear above the 

 ground. Two applications per week are 

 adequate during fair weather, but dur- 

 ing rainy seasons it should be applied 

 after each rain. Usually ten or twelve 

 applications per season aro said to be 

 required. The dust adheres best, how- 

 ever, when the plants are wet with 

 dew or rain.
