PACIFIC COAST. 



PORTLAND, OEE. 



The Market. 



Business is again back to normal; in 

 fact, it is a little too quiet after such 

 strenuous weeks as just experienced. 

 New Year's business was a steady 

 grind, but not so large that the regular 

 force could not handle it. There was a 

 scarcity of flowers, yet there was a de- 

 cline in prices, and we about cleaned 

 up all left-over plants and baskets. 



Carnations are coming in nicely, but 

 are not an oversupply, and roses are 

 practically out of the market. Some 

 choice Maud Dean mums are in evi- 

 dence and are quickly snapped up at 

 top prices. That lily of the valley this 

 season is a failure, is voiced on all 

 sides; scarcely one-third produces spikes 

 and some growers are considering dis- 

 continuing it altogether. 



Considerable complaint is heard of 

 eastern shipments of plants being re- 

 ceived frozen. Not enough care is ex- 

 ercised in the packing. Quite a differ- 

 ent condition prevails on the Pacific 

 coast, as the winter has been excep- 

 tionally mild, with no freezing weather 

 yet. At present, the writer has a vase 

 of roses on the table that were picked 

 on the outside January 3; they are of 

 unusual form and color, but short 

 stemmed. 



Various Notes. 



D. M. Buggies, of Eugene, Ore., spent 

 a few days here recently making in- 

 quiries regarding greenhouse construc- 

 tion. 



Warren & Moore have taken over 

 the Deming greenhouses at Lents. They 

 will extend the plant and add modern 

 improvements. 



C. L. Flint, horticulturist of the Ore- 

 gon Agricultural College at Corvallis, 

 Ore., while in the city recently, was 

 plied with many botanical questions by 

 the florists. 



G. Jngalls, of Richmond, Ind., is vis- 

 iting in this city. He was formerly 

 with the E. G. Hill Co. E. R. C. 



SAN FRANCISCO, CAL. 



The Market. 



Since New Year's day the retail busi- 

 ness in the vicinity of San Francisco 

 has been quiet, and from general appear- 

 ances it may be so for some time to 

 come. The weather continues most 

 beautiful and flowers of all kinds are 

 plentiful. As a matter of fact, we have 

 had no cold weather to speak of for the 

 last year, and, ©ever in my memory have 

 cut blossoms been so cheap or in such 

 profusion at this time of the year. The

 fornia art at the present time e^:^

have a disastrous effect on everything 

 in a business way. This is felt indi- 

 rectly by the florists as much as any 

 other tradesmen, and a few good show- 

 ers would accomplish wonders in restor- 

 ing confidence to the general public. 



If the warm days continue much 

 longer we may expect that stock will be 

 as cheap as it usually is three months 

 from now. This condition is to the ad- 

 vantage of no one except the flower con- 

 sumer, and the retailers need not hope 

 to reap much of a harvest until climatic 

 conditions change.
