their best. Coreopsis, gaillardias, stocks, 

 cjki^flowers, statics, candytitf I >'alii sev- 

 eral varieties of everlasting flowers are 

 much in evidence. Outside roses, owing 

 to the favorable turn of the weather, 

 are good and are largely used for ship- 

 ping. Trade in town is not as good as 

 might be wished, though there is con- 

 siderable doing in the funeral line. 



Various Notes. 



It is with regret that the trade in 

 the vicinity of San Francisco hear of 

 the death of G. L. Grant, at Soquel, 

 Cal. Mr. Grant made various trips to 

 San Francisco and was well acquainted 

 with many members of the craft here. 



The Thorsted Floral Co. will open a 

 new retail establishment on Broadway, 

 near Fourteenth Street, about June 1. 



The directors of the Panama-Pacific 

 international exhibition have appointed 

 G. A. Dennison as chief of the depart- 

 ment of horticulture in place of George 

 C. Roeding, who resigned. 



Chief Deputy Merrill has been sus- 

 pended by A. J. Cook, chief of the de- 

 partment of plant i«§pection for the 

 state of California. 



The showing of calceolarias in the 

 conservatory at Golden Gate park is at 

 its best now and attracts much atten- 

 tion. A new glass compartment, filled 

 with a collection of cattleyas, also 

 makes a good showing. G.

The Market. 



Business is all that could be expected. 

 In fact, the store forces are always 

 busy and they report a daily clean-up. 

 Carnations have shortened up consid- 

 erably, partly on account of the cloudy 

 weather. The entire supply is used lo- 

 cally. Roses are also in great demand. 

 Kaiserins are coming in nicely, but are 

 rather soft for the shipping trade. 

 Maids, Brides, Richmonds and Beauties 

 are better adapted for that purpose. 

 There is a scarcity of lilies, but there 

 seems to be plenty of miscellaneous 

 flowers, such as stocks, sweet peas, gla- 

 dioli, mignonette and snapdragons. Or- 

 chids move slowly, yet the standard 

 of prices is maintained. Apparently 

 there will be a shortage of flowers for 

 Memorial day, as the season is a little 

 backward and all flowers are late. 

 Peonies are coming along slowly; many 

 of them are only showing color. 



Various Notes. 



E. J. Steele, of Steele 's Mastodon 

 Pansy Gardens, has purchased several 

 acres at Forty-fourth and Powell 

 streets. Mr. Steele is busy preparing 

 the land as the future location of the 

 gardens. The phenomenal growth of 

 the business has made this change neces- 

 sary. 



F. L. Ziegler, of Spokane, Wash., 

 spent several days in the city, looking 

 up stock and supplies. 



All the proprietors of flower stores 

 have agreed to close the stores in the 

 future at 8 p. m. daily and at 1 o'clock 

 on Sunday. After those hours there 

 is little business to justify keeping 

 open, and when the customers are aware 

 of the new rule they will make arrange- 

 ments to place their orders earlier. 

 There is no apparent reason why the 

 flower business should not be regulated 

 in this particular like all other lines of 

 business. E. R. Chappell
