evidence and they sell well. They cost 

 the stores from 75 cents to $1.50 per 

 dozen stems. Other kinds of outside 

 stock move slowly. 



Over in Oakland and Alameda business 

 has been fair, considering the season, 

 with considerable funeral work to en- 

 liven the retailers. 



Various Notes. 



Martin Reukauf, representing Bayers- 

 dorfer & Co., of Philadelphia, left this 

 town during the present week, on his 

 way to Portland, Ore. 



H. Plath, of Ocean Tiew, is con- 

 templating a trip to Europe within the 

 next two months. 



Several growers are planting largely 

 of kentia palm seeds, the stock of which 

 has been hard to get on this coast for 

 several years. 



The Exotic Nurseries, of Santa Bar- 

 bara, Cal., have shipped some splendid 

 specimens of kentias to several local 

 dealers. The plants are lath-house grown 

 and are fully as perfect as those grown 

 here under glass. 



F. Ludemann, of the Pacific Nurseries, 

 .reports heavy sales of calla bulbs for 

 fall delivery. 0. 



PORTLAND ROSE FESTIVAL. 



Rose festival Aveek was one of con- 

 tinuous gaiety and crowds. More than 

 100,000 people witnessed each parade. 

 The street car company on Thursday car- 

 ried 240,000 passengers. 



Notwithstanding the lateness of the 

 season, the competitive rose show in the 

 Oriental building ofr the Lewis and Clark 

 Exposition was an unqualified success. 

 The large interior was turned into a 

 bower of beauty. Roses, roses every- 

 where — millions of roses! 



Wm. S. Sibson, of the Sibson Rose 

 Nurseries; f. W. Settlemeier, of the 

 Woodburn Nurseries, and Dr. Sulliger, 

 of Bellingham, Wash., were the judges, 

 and succeeded in giving general satis- 

 faction. 



The amateur competitions were nu- 

 merously and well contested. There was, 

 however, a lack of competition in the 

 professional sections. 



Clarke Bros, made a fine decorative 

 display and thereby earned the premium 

 of $100, which was well deserved. 



This was the second rose festival, and 

 hereafter it is to be an annual event.
