SEATTLE, WASH. 



The Market. 



Owing to the thousands of Shriners 

 attending their convention here, and 

 other visitors going to and from the 

 Panama-Pacific exposition at San Fran- 

 cisco, business shows some improvement. 

 Because of the hot weather in the latter 

 part of June, outdoor flowers, such as 

 sweet peas, gladioli, etc., are plentiful, 

 so that there is no shortage on the 

 market. The bedding season, now 

 practically over, was more extensive 

 than usual, owing to the planting of 

 window boxes along the buildings and 

 about the lamp posts in the downtown 

 district. The boxes make a creditable 

 showing. 



Various Notes. 



The monthly meeting of the Florists' 

 Club, held July 13, was a great success. 

 There was a large attendance and sev- 

 eral new members were admitted. The 

 principal topic of discussion was the 

 entertainment of the members of the 

 S. A. F., who will be our guests a short 

 time next month whUe on their way to 

 the convention and fair at San I^an- 

 cisco. 



Mrs. L. W. McCoy has been unusually 

 busy, owing to having the planting of 

 the window boxes of the Standard Fur- 

 niture Co. She did this job in first- 

 class style. She also reports a fairly 

 good counter trade. 



Bosaia Bros, did the chief decorating 

 for the Shriners' headquarters. 



The Hollywood Gardens have a spe- 

 cially attractive window, containing a 

 pond, pond lilies and young ducks. Mr. 

 Sullivan, the manager, reports a good 

 June business, owing to the university 

 exercises and several good funerals. 



A. D. Bisdon, the cucumber grower at 

 Brighton Beach, has leased his green- 

 houses to B. D. Bichardson, who intends 

 to plant chrysanthemums and carna- 

 tions. 



John Holze, of the Queen City Floral 

 Co., entertained several Tacoma florists 

 on Saturday, July 10. They took a spin 

 on the boulevard in Mr. Holze 's auto- 

 mobile, calling at J. J. Bonnell's nur- 

 sery and at the range of the Washing- 

 ton Floral Co., and finishing their trip 

 at a bowling alley, where Mr. Holze 

 claims a big victory for himself. 



The Madison Park Floral Co. is cut- 

 ting some excellent gladioli. 



C. E. M. 



PoUman, Wash. — Washington State 

 College has the ground leveled for a 

 new house, 20x125 feet. 



Pullman, Wasb. — Neill's Greenhouses 

 are busy planting. The outside gardens 

 under the Skinner system are looking 

 well. 



Moscow, Idabo. — Scott Bros, are 

 practically through benching cama- 

 tions and chrysanthemums, and, owing 

 to the cool summer, stock is looking 

 well. They have just installed a section 

 of dinner irriga^jp* ^fstem for garden 

 purposes. Edwin Qt. I^ott, formerly a 

 member of the firm, has sold out and 

 bought a place at Marshfield, Ore.
