The Market. 



With the exception of funeral work 

 there is absolutely nothing doing in the 

 retail line. All the store men are on, 

 or about to take, vacations and most 

 of tlie shops arc running short-handed 

 in consequence. There is such a small 

 amount of trade stirring, however, that 

 no one is put to any inconvenience in 

 handling it. The weather has been so 

 cool for the last month that all the 

 inside stock has regained its usual 

 vigor and we are having better quality 

 roses and carnations than those usually 

 shown at this time. Prices are low, 

 but in comparison with those of last 

 year they are no worse and the stock 

 is much better in both stem and color. 



Some of the finest outside dahlias 

 and gladioli seen in town this season 

 are now being offered to the retailers 

 and they have so far moved well. 

 There is nothing else in outs|de flowers 

 that is of much consequence at this 

 time except sweet peas, and they are 

 not as good as they were a few weeks 

 ago, although the weather favors them 

 considerably. The lath house grown 

 Japanese lilies are moving only fairly. 

 Valley is more plentiful than it has 

 been and it holds its own. Other lines 

 of stock are not much in evidence and 

 it is evident that everyone is curtailing 

 window displays to some extent. 



Various Notes. 



Domoto Bros, are constructing a new 

 house on their Melrose nurseries, to be 

 devoted exclusively to orchids. It will 

 be 30x200 feet. 



Henry Maier, of the Hillsborough 

 Nurseries, is busy with the Crocker 

 wedding preparations. It is the inten- 

 tion to use over 5,000 orchid flowers in 

 the various decorations. 



Mrs. E. W. McLellan, of Burlingame, 

 did some clever decorating for the 

 eastern clubwomen who have been 

 visiting San Francisco for the last 

 week. 



E. G. Dexter, formerly head gardener 

 at the state hospital at Agnews, and 

 more recently gardener to Louis Titus, 

 of Piedmont, has resigned from that 

 place and removed to Berkeley. G.
