May 8. Irises, hydrangeas and peonies 

 were the principal flowers used. Fred 

 Dostal was in charge. 



W. Bridgport, of Eagle Rock,, is send- 

 ing in fine peonies, much the best com- 

 ing to this market. 



The stock shown at Wright's Flower 

 Shop has been exceptionally fine .of 

 late, and, while feeling the slackness in 

 trade somewhat, the force is kept busy. 

 The gardenias shipped in from the 

 Gardena plant are good.

The Market 



A slight sprinkling of rain during 

 the week has done much toward fresh- 

 ening the landscape, and a few more 

 showers are needed. Flowers of all 

 kinds are still plentiful, and from all 

 indications will be so for some time to 

 come. Inside carnations and roses are 

 good and cheap. With the possible ex- 

 ception of fancy Beauties, the market 

 is oversupplied. Tulips are practically 

 oyer for the season. Spanish and other 

 irises are now at their best and, though 

 the stores are well supplied,' most of 

 the stock is fairly well cleaned up. 

 Sweet peas are better than they have 

 been at any time this year. It is not 

 likely, however, that they will be as 

 plentiful as they were last season, on 

 account of the shortage of moisture 

 everywhere. Violets are over com- 

 pletely. Gladioli of the smaller sorts 

 are now in season, but of the larger 

 varieties only a few are being brought 

 into town. Coreopsis, gaillardias and 

 other outside annuals have commenced 

 to be a factor in the line of cheap flow- 

 ers and the street hucksters are making 

 good use of them. Lilac and fruit 

 blossoms are on the wane and a few 

 more days will end them. Valley is 

 not plentiful. Easter lilies and orchids 

 are in sufiicient quantity to fill all re- 

 quirements.
