was expected early in the fall. A con- 

 siderable decrease appears in large or- 

 ders, and a decided increase in small 

 ones. There has been a decrease in 

 the total gross sales for the six 

 months, which some firms estimate as 

 high as twenty per cent. Unusually 

 low prices received for cut stock has 

 caused a part of this deficiency; the 

 rest is due to a falling off in demand. 

 Expenses have been cut to a minimum, 

 so that the net profits may not have 

 decreased in proportion to the gross 

 sales. As the quality of the cut stock 

 has never been better than that offered 

 this fall, the public has reaped the 

 benefit of splendid flowers at low 

 prices. 



Since the Christmas rush there has 

 been a plentiful supply of roses, car- 

 nations. Paper Whites, Bomans and 

 some varieties of mums, which have 

 cleaned up every day at normal prices, 

 and no further oversupply of cut stock 

 is looked for this winter. There will 

 be no shortage of valley pips, as was 

 feared a few weeks ago. There are 

 now hardly any home-grown violets and 

 it is expected that the supply from 

 California will be sufficient from now 

 on. 



Potted stock is abundant, with poin- 

 settias leading so strongly that they 

 seem to be in oversupply. Other bloom- 

 ing potted stock, especially azaleas and 

 cyclamens, have sold so freely that 

 they will be cleaned up. 



The seedsmen all report a good sea- 

 son's business; some claim an increase 

 over the average. They have lately re- 

 ceived shipments of Holland and Japa- 

 nese ornamentals, which they were not 

 looking for, thus adding materially to 

 their lines of nursery stock. 



The nurserymen have their fall stocks 

 well cleaned up and have no complaint 

 to make about their season's business. 



The wholesale growers of cut stock 

 have found a ready market at nearly 

 normal prices ever since the glut of 

 carnations and mums which occurred in 

 the early fall, and while a considerable 

 deficiency in receipts appears, they 

 realize that the season might have been 

 much worse than it was. 



Various Notes. 



H. J. Bigger, who has a florists' and 

 nursery business at Oregon City, was in 

 the city last week. He reports business 

 excellent. He grows cut flowers and 

 vegetables and gives considerable at- 

 tention to growing vegetable seeds. 



The holiday display of Otaheito 

 mges shown by Clarke Bros, at- 



tra^ed a great deal of attention. The 



oranges were home-grown.
