jrumbling among growers or retailers. 

 ?*rices are not what they might be, but 

 ;here is a tendency to come a little 

 learer to normal. Carnations are not so 

 jlentiful and the price has gone up 

 slightly. Daffodils are scarce and the 

 lemand is good. These flowers seem to 

 DC used largely for decorations this 

 ipring. Other bulb stock is selling well, 

 rhe California violets are not so plenti- 

 :ul and there is a big demand for home 

 jrown stock. The supply of Easter lilies 

 seems to be adequate and the stocks 

 ook as if they would be in fine shape 

 'or Easter. The demand for plants for 

 jedding and borders has commenced 

 md of this class of merchandise the 

 supply is plentiful, as usual. 



Various Notes. 



Emil 6urkhart has just completed the 

 ;rection of a small greenhouse plant at 

 Matthiesen station, his intention being 

 ;o grow bedding plants, tomatoes, etc. 



The Seattle Cut Flower Exchange re- 

 jorts business good in the new quarters 

 )n Second avenue.

 jpening a flower stall in the entrance 

 io the Arcade building on Second ave- 

 lue, April 1. Miss Eisdon, who in part- 

 lership with Miss Wagner ran the stall 

 It the Savoy hotel, will be in charge.

THE TRADE IN GREAT BRITAIN. 



Eeferring to the extent of the horti- 

 cultural trades in England, Scotland, 

 Ireland and "Wales, a writer in an Eng- 

 lish trade paper states that the num- 

 ber of establishments is approximately 

 3,000, with 4,000 acres of glass — 175 

 million square feet. The land in use is 

 20,000 acres. The investment in the 500 

 leading establishments is estimated at 

 ^50,000,000; the next 1,000 establish- 

 ments another $10,000,000, and the re- 

 maining 1,500 places hardly $1,250,000, 

 the whole industry therefore represent- 

 ing an investment of some $0^^250,000. 



There is no reliable data as to the 

 number or extent of the commercial 

 greenhouse establishments in l^e 

 United States. The government census 

 of 1900 undertook the gathering of the
