the game that he is not a "has-been," 

 but is still open to meet all comers. 



Portland seems to be behind the 

 times compared with other cities. What 

 we need is a florists' club where the 

 employers, employees and growers can 

 get together and discuss topics of in- 

 terest. So far, all efforts along this 

 line have brought little response. Who 

 will start the ball rolling! It will be 

 beneficial to the florists as well as to 

 the flower buying public; it will place 

 the business on a higher plane of com- 

 mercialism, so let's get together and 

 do something. E. R. C.

 the gun that did the business. This 

 was the first of four wild boars he shot 

 on his recent hunting trip in the Santa 

 Cruz island and he is proud of his 

 record as a nimrod. Wild geese and 

 seals were also among the game 

 bagged. H. R. R.

The Market. 



With our warm weather of the last 

 few weeks in mind, it seems impossible 

 to realize that there is such a thing as 

 the zero weather which the east and 

 parts of the west have been having 

 lately. It is no unusual thing here to 

 see roses blooming outside in some shel- 

 tered nook, and some of the earliest 

 trees, such as the pussy willow, have 

 already begun to open their buds. Manv 

 of the bulbs are pushing up through 

 the ground and some of the hyacinths 

 are beginning to bud on the lawns. 



Business conditions are about as last 

 reported, but stock seems to be more 

 plentiful than at that time, though ear- 

 nations, roses, etc., are still scarce. 

 There is scareely any valley to be seen, 

 as none of the growers care to foree 

 any qtmntity, with the market uncer- 

 tain and prices none too good. Tulips 

 and Dutch hyacinths are arriving in
