The Florists' Review 



SBt>TEMBBB 23, 1915. 



every few days to look after hia two 

 stands in the Emporium department 

 store. The nursery department is ex- 

 ceedingly busy, especially in bulbs, 

 which are being prominently adver- 

 tised. Mr. Navlet has issued his first 

 fall catalogue, getting it out early for 

 the bulb trade. He expects to issue 

 three catalogues next year. Mr. Navlet 

 was at Santa Cruz a few days ago to 

 make bulb purchases and reported that 

 the growers there appear to be in good 

 shape for fall business. He said that 

 the daffodil and other bulbs offered by 

 C. Eaden Lilley are exceptionally fine. 



According to reports from Eureka, 

 the new greenhouse of the (Jottage Gar- 

 dens Nursery Co. will be the largest in 

 the state. Work was started on the 

 foundations the first of the month. An 

 office building, boiler and tool house, 

 and a large slat house and packing 

 shed have been completed. Everything 

 is being equipped along the most mod- 

 ern lines. Several new houses are also 

 to be added to the experiment garden, 

 where a large amount of stock is being 

 assembled for planting in the Eureka 

 high school grounds. 



The cannas in the garden south of 

 the Palace of Horticulture were slow 

 in getting a start, and for a time it 

 looked as if they would be a complete 

 failure. Now, however, the various 

 exhibits are coming into excellent 

 bloom. H. S. G.

The Market. 



Business is reported as being unusu- 

 ally spotted, but as averaging better 

 than in the corresponding period of last 

 year. A marked increase in the num' 

 ber of September weddings is noted. 

 Carnations are coming in more freely 

 and their quality has improved. Octo- 

 ber Frost and Smith's Advance chrys- 

 anthemums have appeared on the list 

 of white mums. A heavy cut of Ophelia, 

 White Killarney, Killarney and Chat- 

 eney rosea is being marketed. The 

 rains which usually fall about Septem- 

 ber 1 did not arrive this year, and the 

 season for asters and other outdoor 

 flowers has been prolonged. Orchids 

 are still scarce. The demand for ferns 

 has increased. 



Seedsmen report a good demand for 

 lawn grass seed and seeds of perennials 

 and winter vegetables, although the 

 lack of rain prevents buyers from 

 working the ground in many localities. 



The Multnomah Exhibits. 



The floral display at the Multnomah 

 county fair, held at Gresham two weeks 

 ago, proved to be a great attraction. 

 Prizes totaling $150 were offered by the 

 managers, for displays of permanent 

 beds and for table entries. In the 

 main hall, one table was filled with an 

 exhibit of dahlias from Gill Bros. Seed 

 Co., showing about 350 varieties. An- 

 other table contained blooms of roses 

 and perennials from the Mountain View 

 Floral Co., and two tables had home- 

 grown flowers and potted plants from 

 amateurs. Nearly all the agricultural 

 exhibits were decorated with vases of 

 cut flowers. A pyramidal stand filled 

 with foliage plants, furnished by the 

 Bahn & Herbert Co., formed the cen- 

 terpiece of the hall. 



One of the permanent beds consisted 

 of Pride of Portland cannas, with a 

 border of coleus, and other beds had 

 gladioli and asters, all of which were
