PORTLAND, ORE. 



The Market. 



Business is aj>ain hack to iioiiual, al- 

 tliough the closing days of .June were 

 reeord-brealvers for weddings. Lily of 

 the valley and wiiite roses were at a 

 jireniiuin and in many cases carnations 

 and sweet jjeas were resorted to. The 

 j>assing of the fair graduates will put a 

 quietus on business and summer prices 

 will prevail. 



Vacation time is here and the "call 

 of the wild" is heard by many of the 

 florists after the strenuous season j^ist 

 past. Stock is plentiful, carnations 

 are in good supply and prices are lower; 

 7o cents per dozen is the retail price on 

 all varieties. Sweet peas are numerous 

 and of fine quality, and the best selling 

 commodity on the market. Auratums, 

 rubrums and lougiflorums are plentiful 

 and move well. Green goods are un- 

 usually scarce, especially the asparagus 

 varieties. Roses are in normal supply, 

 but are badly affected by mildew, which 

 is the worst pest that the florists have 

 to combat in this section. 



Various Notes. 



P. Johnson has quit the flower busi- 

 ness and has sold all his stock and 

 glass to Crout & Wilson, of Mt. Tabor. 



M. Stauch, formerly of Nashville, 

 Tenn., is now in charge of the growing 

 end of, Clarke Bros. 



Gustav Teufel is sojourning in 

 Alaska, combining business and 

 pleasure. 



Steele's Pansy Gardens are well satis- 

 fied with sales, as their spring trade 

 was approximately 100,000 plants. 



R. A. Kcigelmann is credited with the 

 best sweet i)eas on the market, and in 

 the most exquisite colors. 



J. T. Dayton, representing the Madi- 

 son Basketcraft Co., was a recent caller, 

 as also Lewis Goodfriend, representing 

 Werthcimer Bros. E. R. C.

The Market. 



The weather is warm again and busi- 

 ness is about as quiet as one could well 

 imagine. From appearances, all the good 

 customers are rusticating out of town, 

 and those who are left behind show but 

 little desire to patronize the florists. 

 However, I might add that funeral or- 

 ders are in fair evidence and these are 

 about all there are to mention. Flowers 

 all show the return of the warm spell. 

 Roses, especially, are flabby and of poor 

 color. Carnations stand the heat bet- 

 ter and, with the exception of a small 

 showing of thrips on some of the red 

 and deep pink sorts, are of good qual- 

 ity. Good sweet peas are not plen- 

 tiful, although there is an abundance 

 of the short-stemmed flowers. Gladioli 

 are the most popular flowers at this time.

Such varieties as America, Augusta, 

 Mme. Monneret, Oiant Pink and a few- 

 others are in big demand at good prices. 

 Dahlias promise to be popular again this 

 season and, although it is early yet for 

 a full assortment, those already shown 

 are quickly bought. 



Asparagus and maidenhair ferns are 

 more plentiful than they have been any 

 time this year. Gypsophila is used to 

 a great extent in preference to the more 

 expensive trimmings and its appearance 

 is always hailed with delight by the re- 

 tailers, who find the providing of greens 

 a serious and costly proposition for 

 many months in the year.
