slogan, "Get the flowers on the 

 streets." . - 



The establishment of E. James, in 

 Oakland, is pretty well cleaned out, but 

 there are still many rambler roses com- 

 ikg along nicely for later ffn the season, 

 bnu a big house of cyclarikens is being 

 prepared for the Christmas trade. 



A. P. B. 



PORTLAND, ORE. 



The Market. 



The demand for flowers for social 

 affairs has been as good as usual this 

 week. Counter trade has fallen off 

 somewhat, because of the abundance of 

 wild and home-grown blooms. The 

 amount of funeral work has been above 

 the average. 



There is an oversupply of carnations, 

 and some of the stores are offering 

 them as specials at reduced prices. 

 Boses are in full supply and of excel- 

 lent quality. Many outdoor flowers are 

 shown at the stores and they prove, 

 popular. Sweet peas are coming in 

 freely, but are not so good as the ear- 

 lier ones. Cattleya Mossise and Schroe- 

 dersB are plentiful. The latter is not 

 so popular, on account of its pale color, 

 but is used effectively in designs. Cut 

 tulips of the Darwin varieties are still 

 coming in from the greenhouses. Those 

 grown outdoors are nearly due. Farn- 

 combe Sanders and Clara Butt are two 

 of the best. There are still some vio- 

 lets offered. The late Easter lilies have 

 been cleaned up in floral work. Some 

 splendid callas are seen; these are in 

 great demand for designs, and are sel- 

 dom in oversupply. 



But few varieties of potted blooming 

 plants are shown, French hydrangeas 

 leading and spirsBas, azaleas and potted 

 rambler roses following. The demand 

 for them is light. Bedding stock is 

 moving well. 



The rush of the nurseries and land- 

 scape gardeners is nearing its end, as 

 the season opened considerably earlier 

 than usual. 



Various Notes. 



L. W. Scott, of the Pacific Stoneware 

 Co., has returned from a business trip 

 to the sound and vicinity, 



Leo Wiedemann is bringing in some 

 good Cecile Brunner roses. 



The Routledge Seed & Floral Co. re- 

 ports a good business in perennials. 



The Martin & Forbes Co. has a fine 

 display of Darwin tulips, Ophelia roses, 

 snapdragons and Anemone St. Brigid. 



Donald Wadsworth, who is with the 

 Kelso Floral Co., was in the city last 

 week. He says business is good at 

 Kelso. 



The Mountain View Floral Co. is sup- 

 plying some excellent wallflower plants, 

 which meet with ready sale. 



Sunnyside Camp, W. 0. W., held an 

 amateur flower show April 13. Local 

 florists acted as judges. 



J. Butzer has received a part of a 

 shipment of seeds from Copenhagen, 

 which left on the steamship Fiorina. 

 This vessel arrived three months late 

 at the Atlantic terminus of the Pan- 

 ama canal and there transferred her 

 cargo. Mr. Butzer does not know what 

 became of the rest of the- shipment. 



Clarke Bros, have some good potted 

 rambler roses, for which there is a 

 fair demand. 



W. J. Williams, of Qarke Bros.' 

 store, is off duty again, on account of 

 illness. g^ \y^ -^^
