ceolarias and ferns are grown, and the 

 whole place is a credit to Mr. Frigate, 

 who runs it entirely ■^^ith the h^lp of 

 one man. Indeed, I hardly know whom 

 to praise the more, Mr. Felgate as gar- 

 dener or Mrs. Felgate as cook. We 

 can all testify to the eflSciency of the 

 latter, who put up an elegant turkey 

 dinner for us on the day of our visit.

The Market. 



Business is moving along in a quiet 

 but steady way. There is always a lull 

 before the storm. Preparatory work 

 is rapidly being arranged and orders 

 are being booked steadily and firm 

 prices will prevail. At this early date 

 it is hard to determine the results, but 

 there seems to be plenty of stock of 

 good quality. Boses are looking fine, 

 especially Eichmond, Killarneys and 

 Maid, while Beauties will be a little 

 off crop. Carnations of all colors will 

 be plentiful. Bed usually is the first 

 to clean out. Mums will be available 

 in limited quantities. Local violets 

 will be scarce, but the California ship- 

 ments will be plentiful and sold at a 

 price that gives a good margin of profit. 

 Business houses and department stores 

 have put on a Christmas hue, wreathing 

 and decorative greens being in evi- 

 dence on all sides. Oregon grape, or 

 mahonia, a local decorative green, is 

 effective for decorating, with a vari- 

 ation of color from green to a dark 

 bronze. 



Various Notes. 



Joseph Costagnas, a local violet 

 grower, was judged insane and taken 

 to the asylum, but has been released to 

 relatives in San Francisco. His place 

 has been leased and will be taken care 

 of, pending his condition for the future. 



Julius Schnapp, of Seattle, is now 

 identified with the Tonseth Floral Co. 

 He is well known to the florists of this 

 city, as he was here during the recent 

 flower show. E. E. C. 



TACOMA, WASH. 



The Market. 



After an unusually busy Thanksgiv- 

 ing, business has settled down to its 

 usual level for this time of the year. 

 Christmas stock is coming on in fine 

 shape and the stores are fast taking on 

 their holiday appearance. Stock is 

 selling well and the supply seems to be 

 about equal to the demand. Boses are 

 stUl rather scarce, but carnations are 

 more plentiful, with the prospects good 

 for a heavy Christmas cut. There are 

 still some of the late varieties of mums 

 on the market, but it seems to be the 

 general opinion that mums have not 

 been a profitable crop this year, be- 

 cause of the low prices prevailing dur- 

 ing the first part of the season. 



Club Meeting. 



The Florists' Club held an interest- 

 ing meeting in the club rooms December 

 5. The event of chief interest was the 

 election of officers for the ensuing year. 

 The following officers were elected": 

 President, Henry Benthien; vice-presi- 

 dent, J. L. Simpson; secretary, Fred 

 Smith; treasurer, A. A. Hinz; trustee, 

 Harry Atchinson. 



It was decided to drop the bowling
