The Market. 



The general condition in this market 

 remains unchanged at this time, with 

 stock facing the usual between-season 

 situation of scarcity of varieties. The 

 cut of roses has been steadily increas- 

 ing, and, by another week, it is believed 

 that the new crop of carnations will be 

 plentiful. As for dahlias, these are be- 

 ginning to show signs of passing and 

 the volume of gladioli has been reduced 

 somewhat. With this general situation 

 ruling, there has been a more or less 

 general movement on the part of the 

 trade to encourage greater selling of 

 ferns, and, in most instances, this has 

 been successful. 



Among the long-stemmed items, mums 

 are ever increasing in importance, al- 

 though neither the local nor California 

 stock has displayed the enduring quali- 

 ties desired. Every check with local 

 growers indicates that the mum crop of 

 the northwest will be heavy and of a 

 fine quality. There is some fear ex- 

 pressed that a glut may be produced at 

 the time of full ripening, but efforts 

 will be made to offset this by forcing a 

 larger local and shipping consumption. 

 Id short-stemmed items, zinnias have 

 been making the best showing of late, 

 one grower bringing in some stock as 

 long-stemmed as the average dahlia and 

 highly colored. African marigolds are 

 big sellers and asters continue a big 

 feature in funeral work. 



Ward roses are of better quality now 

 than at any time this season, and are 

 so plentiful that a popular price is being 

 charged, so that this variety is proving 

 a real sales leader. Ophelia is in heavi- 

 est supply, while the cut of Eussells has 

 slackened somewhat. Cecile Brunners 

 are plentiful and are freely used.

their cut is heavier at present, and some 

 of the most beautiful cattleyas seen this 

 year are being shown now. Valley is 

 none too plentiful, but bouvardia and 

 stephanotis easily take the place of this 

 flower. 



The delivery of potted plants is in- 

 creasing somewhat and the average size 

 of cyclamens has made real strides. 

 Fine light pink stock is being displayed 

 in some of the shops. Among other

potted offerings, begonias are in lighter 

 supply, while primroses are gaining. Two 

 shops have been showing a fair quantity 

 of potted fuchsias, but this is said to be 

 about the last large delivery to be ex- 

 pected here this season.
