The Market 



The cut flower market has been in a 

 fair condition the past couple of weeks. 

 Decoration day was much ahead of last 

 year, peonies being the best sellers, and 

 carnations a close second. Steamer 

 trade is also reported by the retailers 

 as being on the increase. Commence- 

 ments have also helped to keep the mar- 

 ket in good shape. Eoses have been very 

 much affected by the hot weather, many 

 of thcni arriving open and soft. Car- 

 nations continue of very good quality 

 and plenty of them, with fair prices. 

 Peonies have been arriving in large 

 quantities. Some show the effect of the 

 drouth, but the larger portion of them

Gov. George C. Pardee, Prof, E. J.

 comprising the commission appointed by 

 the last legislature to locate the southern 

 branch of the California Agricultural 

 Experiment Station and of the patholog- 

 ical laboratory, have made public their 

 decision. Eiverside has been awarded 

 the agricultural station, the site being 

 twenty-three acres at the base of Rubi- 

 doux heights, adjoining Huntington park, 

 donated by the promoters of the heights. 



To Whittier has been awarded the path- 

 ological laboratory. The site is one acre
