An account of the meeting of the Pa- 

 cific Coast Nurserymen's Association ap- 

 pears on another page of this issue. 



Portland, Ore.— In the big fire of July 

 13 one of the florists who suffered was 

 George Otten. His loss is reported as 

 $10,000. 



San Francisco, Cal.— F. Ludemann, 

 for forty years a well known figure in 

 the trade on the Pacific coast, has, on 

 account of ill health, laid down the 

 cares of business. His place at Mill- 

 brae has been turned over to his son, 

 Adolph F. Ludemann, who has been 

 aBSOciated with his father for the last 

 ten years, while the other place, at 

 3041 Baker street in this city, has been 

 purchased by H. Kempf. 



Portland, Ore.— The first sweet pea 

 show under the auspices of the Ladies' 

 Auxiliary of the Woodstock Improve- 

 ment Association, was held July 2 in 

 Woodstock hall, and the interest which 

 was aroused resulted in the preliminary 

 organization of the Oregon Sweet Pea 

 Association. Captain George Pope was 

 manager and he was assisted by Mrs. 

 Andrews, secretary of the auxiliary. 

 There were eighty-five separate ex- 

 hibits from amateur growers and one 

 from a professional grower. 



PORTLAND, ORE. 



The Market. 



Business has been at the regular sum- 

 mer level for the last fortnight, but 

 funeral work, which has been surpris- 

 ing, has kept things moving, although 

 the warm weather has nearly denuded 

 the city of the flower-buying public. 



Stock in all varieties is plentiful, and 

 a large portion is dumped daily. Car- 

 nations are the old reliables and serve 

 well for all occasions, but a scarcity 

 is looked for soon, as the benches are 

 being rapidly cleaned out. Winsor, 

 Victory, Enchantress and White Per- 

 fection lead in popularity. Gypsophila 

 is plentiful, and is effective with all 

 floral arrangements. 



Variotis Notes. 



In the recent fire that destroyed sev- 

 eral blocks in this city, John Davis had 

 the misfortune to lose his entire house- 

 hold effects, and he and his family barely 

 escaped with their lives. John G. Hol- 

 den was also a victim, as his store and 

 (Creenhouse were totally destroyed. This 

 is Mr. Holden's second disaster within 

 a short time, as he recently fell from 

 a shade tree which he was trimming 

 and dislocated his hip, besides receiving 

 other injuries. 



H. Clemmens, of Newberg, shipped 

 the first asters to this market; they 

 were of long stem and fine quality. He 

 has a seedling of great merit that is as 

 yet unnamed.

The summer quietness is still with 

 us and, from appearances, we are to be 

 blessed with it for some time to come. 

 The weather has not been too warm for 

 comfort, nor has it made it difficult to 

 keep flowers, and the growers are not 

 complaining of the quick opening quali-
