PACIFIC COAST. 



The Great Northern Railroad is aid- 

 ing the development of the Oregon fruit 

 industry by displaying in its traffic of- 

 fices through the country boxes of the 

 splendid apples grown in the Wenatchie 

 valley, where the bushel box is the stand- 

 ard package. 



KATE MOULTON ON THE COAST. 



Among the many interesting things to 

 be seen at the establishment of William 

 H. Sibson, at Portland, Ore,, is a house 

 200 feet long planted to the Kate Moul- 

 ton rose. Mr. Sibson grows a large list 

 of varieties and has excellent success 

 with all his stock under glass, but the 

 behavior of Miss Kate Moulton has par- 

 ticularly pleased him. It has grown 

 finely and appears to be free from the 

 eccentricities which are to be noted in 

 so many of our forcing roses. It is 

 abundantly productive and fine in both 

 flowers and foliage, no mildew ever being 

 seen.

erly protected for such a long, dry jour- 

 ney. With the one exception that has 

 come under my notice, not a box con- 

 tained an ounce of moss. The trees were 

 as dry as dead brush, with all leaves 

 gone. 



The shippers sending goods to this 

 coast should remember two things: First, 

 use enough moss, and, second, during 

 cold weather use dry moss. 



Southern California was favored with 

 its first good rain for the season the 

 latter part of November, and it sets 

 all the nurseries to work. Preced- 

 ing this rain was an unusual cold snap

shipments are from a number of differ- 

 ent large shippers of the East, and, bar- 

 ring one shipment, they are almost a 

 total loss. Of all these shipments, the 

 writer has seen but one that was prop- 



that has, to a considerable extent, de- 

 stroyed the late beans and early pota- 

 toes, and in many localities taken the 

 winter peas. Other growers report the 

 loss of their winter tomatoes. This cold

 than usual, and will be of great loss to 

 some of the growers, who "gamble" on 

 holiday trade and take great risks with 

 the elements.

The Market 



Thanksgiving has come and gone, and 

 1 am inclined to think that there will 

 be little cause for complaint. We had 

 been enjoying extra fine weather through 

 November until about a week before the 

 holiday, when suddenly we were visited 

 by several days of hot, dry winds, 

 coupled with frosty nights. In conse^ 

 quence there was a great shortage of 

 outdoor stock that was not particularly 

 noticeable until the middle of the week. 

 Violets suffered most and next in order 

 were chrysanthemums. The price of the 

 former was not raised by the gfrowers, 

 but there was a great shortage of stock 

 and there were but few brought to town 

 on Wednesday or Thursday. The demand 

 was heavy but everyone was cut off with 

 a short supply. Good yellow mum's' for 

 the same reason were scarce and the 

 growers doubled the prices.
