The Market 



There has been considerable funeral 

 work during the past week but outside 

 of this there has been very little doing. 

 Asters and liUps are especially plentiful 

 and for the former there does not seem 

 to be as much demand as in former 

 years. Lilies of all kinds, however, are 

 good sellers and thousands of stems are 

 disposed of daily. They cost the stores 

 about $1 per dozen for the best quality 

 and retail at about twice that price. 

 Boses are only in fair supply but carna- 

 tions are becoming a little more plenti- 

 ful. 



Variottt Notes. 



A trip through the chrysanthemum 

 district shows the fields in good shape 

 and the chances excellent for an abun- 

 dant crop beginning in a couple of 

 weeks. This has been an especially fa- 

 vorable season for the growth of the 

 plants and they are now in heavy bud, 

 excepting the later blooming kinds. The 

 Chinese, as usual, have the bulk of this 

 portion of the business. 



Frank Shibeley's new store on Polk 

 street, near Sutter, is one of the most 

 attractive establishments in that neigh- 

 borhood. 



E. J. Wickson, of Berkeley, one of the 

 best known horticulturists on the coast, 

 has been given the important appoint- 

 ment of delegate at large for the Na- 

 tional Council of Horticulture. 



A visit to the carnation houses of A. 

 Galloway, of Fruitvale, shows everything 

 in good, healthy condition and the prom- 

 ise of abundant blooms in the near fu- 

 ture.
