Wm. Billingsley, formerly of the Bil- 

 lingsley Co., Indianapolis, is now with the 

 McCoy Co. 



The Interlaken Nurseries have opened 

 a new store on Pike street and Pike place 

 and report a fine business. 



Graff's Flower Shop continues to be a 

 revelation to the fiower buyers of Seattle. 

 Mr. Graff and Mr. Chisholm have just 

 returned from a business trip to Tacoma 

 and Portland. Mr. Pritchard, of this 

 firm, is daily to be seen investigating the 

 mysteries of the Pay Streak at the 

 A.-Y.-P. Exposition. Many landscape 

 ideas can be picked up from the beauti- 

 ful lay-out of the A.-Y.-P. grounds.

SAN FRANCISCO. 



The Market 



The midsummer dullness continues and 

 the end of it is not yet apparent. The 

 weather, although not as warm as it has 

 been, still keeps the townspeople secluded 

 in the country, and not until the schools 

 open again may we expect a resumption 

 of trade. Flowers are a drug in the mar- 

 ket and it appears ridiculous to give any 

 quotations at present. 



With the possible exception of long- 

 stemmed Beauties, roses of all kinds have 

 reached the low-water mark in price. 

 Sweet peas are not as plentiful as they 

 have been and there is some demand for 

 the longer-stemmed stock. Valley is in 

 fair supply and moves slowly. L. longi- 

 florum is about out of season and we may 

 expect plenty of rubrum and auratum in 

 a few days. Gladioli of the showy vari- 

 eties do not sell as well as they did a 

 week or two ago, and the same can be 

 said of dahlias and other outside stock. 



With the exception of some funeral or- 

 ders, there is really nothing doing in the 

 retail stores in town, while the growers 

 and wholesalers have the advantage of 

 more or less shipping to interior towns 

 during the summer months.
