ceedingly scarce and high-priced. Boses 

 are good and fair supplies of them are 

 coming in. Chrysanthemums, both 

 large and small, are selling, but the 

 prices are not so good as formerly. 

 Pompons are meeting with good de- 

 mand and are useful in many v?ays. 

 More orchids are displayed just now 

 than have been seen for a long time, 

 and they are more popular than ever. 

 Paper Whites are showing the com- 

 mencement of the bulb season and are 

 selling moderately well. Of pot plants, 

 cyclamens and obconicas are now ar- 

 riving in good shape. What little val- 

 ley arrives is being used up quickly. 

 Greens of all kinds are fairly abun- 

 dant. 



Various Notes. 



Andrew Matthiesen has rented his 

 greenhouses to the new firm of Buxton 

 & Pedersen, who took possession the 

 first of the month. These boys have 

 had considerable experience in the 

 greenhouse business. A. E. Buxton has 

 recently been working for Van Slyke & 

 Seamons, at Tacoma, He is not by 

 any means a stranger in the district, 

 as at one time he rented the Scott 

 place, at Brighton. Lambert Pedersen, 

 after varied experience in the east and 

 in Europe, has for the last few years 

 been associated with Joseph Stuber in 

 the East Seattle Floral Co. It is con- 

 fidently predicted that the new firm 

 will make a success of the venture. At 

 any rate, if pain»|^ing effort and good 

 knowledge count, there is no doubt in 

 the matter. 



There has been a change at the 

 Eosaia greenhouses, at Thomas. E. 

 Vittori, who has been in charge there 

 for some years, has relinquished his in- 

 terest in the business and gone to Cali- 

 fornia. 6. Gakazzi has been placed in 

 charge by Bosaia Bros. 



Jean Lamley's smiling face is once 

 more visible in the store of Mrs. L. W. 

 McCoy. He has been having a long va- 

 cation, partly on account of his health, 

 and during his rest he visited eastern 

 points. If appearances are anything to 

 go by, he has benefited by the rest and 

 change. 



Palmero Bosaia became the happy 

 father of another boy last week. This 

 makes the seventh olive branch added 

 to his family, so that indications point 

 to Bosaia Bros.' perpetuity. 



Washington and Oregon went dry at 

 the election just over, so that now we 

 shall have to get our booze from our 

 southern neighbor, California, in addi- 

 tion to our other more or less desirable 

 products. 



Jacob Sahli was visiting friends at 

 Brighton last week. He reported busi- 

 ness good and prospects fair at Kent.

The Market. 



A few days of cloudy weather tended 

 to reduce the supply of carnations and 

 mums to something more like normal. 

 The demand has been affected by the 

 interruption to social affairs due to the 

 state and county election, as the women 

 vote and take a greaJf interest in poli- 

 tics. The varieties o£ mums now in 

 their prime are Golden Eagle, Wm. Tur- 

 ner, Bonnaffon and an assortment .of 

 pompons. Several new seedling pom- 

 pons have appeared which have taken 

 well, as they are improvements over the 

 parent ntgcks. There seems to be a

Pacific Coast advertisers al- 

 most invariably report good 

 results. Like this: 



Say I That ad's a hmndlncer for tettinc Uw 

 business.— Everett Floral Co., Everett, Wash. 



I sold all the Hum cnttlncs advertised, and yon 

 will not hear from me again until I can get some 

 more stock ready. Shall root 100.000 Carnation 

 euttinfs for next season, as I know The Review 

 will sell them for me.— Frank Wilhelm, Los An- 

 geles. Cal. 



Please cat out of our advertisement in The Re- 

 view the cyclamen seedlings. We sold all onr 

 Borplus cyclamen seedlings as a direct resolt of 

 our advertisement in your paper.— Spokane 

 Oreenhonses (Inc.), Spokane, Wash. 



We want to say that our last advertisement in 

 The Review brought us orders from both the At- 

 lantic and Pacific coasts. We had, strangely 

 enoogfa, on following days, orders from Salem, 

 Ore., and from Salem. Mass.— State Floral Co.. 

 North Yakima. Wash. 



We are well pleased with the results obtained 

 by advertising in the Pacific Coast Department of 

 The Review. We sold out clean and refused 

 many orders. The Review surely gives resulte.
