look bright for a good business, with 

 an abundance of stock. Lilies are com- 

 ing on in good time, as there is not the 

 quantity of diseased stock 'seen some 

 years. Outdoor bulbous stock is in full 

 bloom, three weeks ahead of former 

 years. 



Various Notes, 



The Seattle bowlers were over for a 

 game March 25. I have not heard the 

 score, but a good time was reported. 



The Smith Floral Co. has purchased 

 a new delivery car to take care of the 

 increased business of the company. 



Mr. Scott, of the Pacific Stoneware 

 Co., was in Tacoma last week. Mr. 

 Scott has lately taken unto himself a 

 wife. J. L. S.*

The Market. 



In retail circles the general trade 

 has kept up remarkably, considering 

 the season and the volume of outside 

 stock to compete with. Funeral work 

 has been the redeeming feature, keeping 

 all surplus moving. Carnations are in 

 large supply, with a slight decline in 

 wholesale prices. Eoses, while improv- 

 ing, are far from an overproduction; 

 there is a good call from out of town. 

 Single, violets are almost off the mar- 

 ket; the doubles are holding out nicely. 

 There are grave doubts of there being 

 many 'tiolets for Easter. Callas and 

 Easter lilies have been plentiful and 

 have moved ^frell. Sweet peas are im- 

 proving in quality and increasing in 

 quantity. Daffodils are a drug on the 

 market and are hard to move at any 

 price. Orchids, Cecile Brunner roses 

 and valley are equal to the demand. 



Various Notes. 



Louis Scott, representing the Pacific 

 Stoneware Co., left March 23, presum- 

 ably on a business trip, but it developed 

 later it was his honeymoon as well. 

 After swearing a few friends to se- 

 crecy, he and Miss Anna Mitchell were 

 quietly married. 



It is rumored that August Zitzewitz, 

 who recently returned from Seattle, will 

 enter business here. 



Frank Chervenka left for Islip, L. I., 

 having been called home on account of 

 the death of his father. 



Julius Broetje, of Oak Grove, had a 

 big supply of cherry and prune blos- 

 soms, for which he has found ready 

 sales. 



W. L. Crissey has had phenomenal 

 success in the growing of gladiolus 

 bulbs. Hie started in a small way as an 

 experiment, but the growth of the busi- 

 ness was beyond his expectations. 



E. J. Steele, of the Mastodon Pansy 

 Gardens, reports that sales have ex- 

 ceeded his best hopes since moving to 

 his new place. The daily sales exceed 

 1.200 plants, in addition to the seed 

 trade. 



The Rose Festival Association has de- 

 cided to hold the rose show in the new 

 Library hall. As usual, the show will 

 be open to all amateurs. In addition to 

 this, about twenty sections of the city 

 will compete for the best display of 

 roses. Booths will be erected on one 

 of the streets, to be chosen later. 



Zimmerman Bros., of Tigard, Ore., 

 are bringing in a nice lot of doroni- 

 cums. 



The department stores are selling 

 plants at prohibitively low prices. Two- 

 year-old rose bushes are being sold for
