The Market. 



Th» supiily of carnations and mums 

 is n^eh greater than the market can 

 hsttdle. A heavy call for funeral work 

 Ms helped matters a little in the last 

 day or two, but the growers have to 

 (lump much of their inferior ?tock and 

 some first-class stock has been thrown 

 on the market at any price oflfered. 

 No California mums are now to be 

 seen. The local-grown stock is excel- 

 lent, but the early varieties are from 

 two to four weeks earlier than usual 

 and the midsoason varieties are begin- 

 ning to come in. The present excessive 

 cut of carnations is likely to cause a 

 limited supply for the holidays. Peren- 

 nials are now plentiful and a few roses 

 have been lifted. The supply of valley 

 pips is considered sufficient to last over 

 the holidays, but after that the supply 

 will depend upon conditions in the for- 

 eign war zone. Home-grown violets 

 are plentiful and but few California- 

 grown ones are seen. Koses of fill 

 sorts are abundant and of excellent 

 quality. The only shortage is in or- 

 chids, and as there are such attractive 

 displays of other flowers, the orehids 

 are not missed. 



Various Notes. 



W. Thompson, the greenhouse builder, 

 has recovered from his recent attack of 

 blood poisoning and is looking after 

 several ,iobs which he has on hand. 



William Borsch, of Hillsdale, is 

 bringing in some first-class perennials. 



J. n. Pilkington has done a great 

 deal of experimenting to determine the 

 varieties best suited to this climate, 

 and among the shrubs he has found 

 good and is introducing this year are: 

 Ceanothus Gloire de Versailles, Budd- 

 leia magnifica, Salvia Oreggii and per- 

 nettyas. 



.7. G. Bacher, of the Swiss Floral Co., 

 is receiving congratulations on the ar- 

 rival of a new daughter in his family. 



The Van Kirk Floral Co. has a fine 

 cut of carnations. They grow success- 

 fully nine varieties. They make regu- 

 lar shipments to customers outside of 

 Portland. They have one house of 

 mums, where the pomj)ons are now in 

 full bloom. 



The Wilson-Crout Co. is growing no 

 vegetables this year. The entire range 

 is devoted to potted and benched stock, 

 for both cut flowers and plants. A fine 

 lot of celestial pei)]iers has found ready 

 sale. J. A. Wilson is general manager 

 and A. Alenius is foreman. 



E. R. Chappell, now at Lubliner's 

 store, will leave this week to take a 

 position with the Thorsted Floral Co., 

 of Oakland, Cal. 



The first Wni. Turner mums have 

 come in. Some fine specimens are dis- 

 plajed by Clarke Bros. 



II. F. K'ichards' carnation range is 

 at East Sixty-eighth and Alder streets, 

 in the residence section of Mount Ta-
