The Market 



We are having an abundance of beau- 

 tiful weather, and flowers are plentiful 

 and at the lowest prices they have been 

 at any time this season. Carnations are 

 a drug in the market and can be bought 

 at any price the retailer chooses to offer. 

 Eoses are a shade better as far as de- 

 mand goes, but they are sold at low fig- 

 ures. Daffodils and tulips are about 

 over for the season, although a few long- 

 stemmed late varieties of the latter are 

 still seen. Easter lilies are cheap and are 

 moving well; the same can be said of 

 valley. "Violets are practically out of the 

 market. Sweet peas, which have been 

 rathe» aearce up to this time, have now 

 taken more attention than anything else 

 in the outside flower line. Coreopsis and 

 gaillardia, are helping to keep the show 

 up and a few Bride gladioli have been 

 sent in within the last few days. 



Business, with the exception of fu- 

 neral orders, has been quiet. In funeral 

 work there has been a fair trade, both 

 in San Francisco and the surrounding 

 towns, and the low prices at which the 

 retailers have been able to purchase flow- 

 ers have left a good margin of profit.

Fischer's Grand Freesia PURITY 



The unequaled wlilte decorative Freeala. Send in your orders early if you want the 

 large sizes, as 1 am boolciDK large orders for them now. and will have to refuse orders for 

 mammoth, although I will have many more bulbs than other years. Our stock is absolutely 

 pure, as great pains is taken to remove any rogues, as they may appear, and all seed pods 

 are removed, avoiding all danger of mixture, as Purity does not come true from seed. 

 Dealers getting their stock from us, will always be sure to get the purest of stock.
