land market; without exception they sold out 100% even while markets were glutted. 
Here at the fields the local florists demanded at least 5 dozen Oregon Rose to 1 dozen 
of any other kind. It has some faults: is inclined to be short in stem, and the spike looks 
stubby when fully opened, because the top flowers are nearly as large as the bottom 
florets, and it opens all florets within a couple of days; nevertheless since we have built 
our stock to a size that enables us to sell it at a low price, we predict it will be very 
widely grown as a commercial. Burma in deep ruffled rose red, and Miss Wisconsin in 
soft rose are perhaps the tops of the newer varieties. Ballad is one of the most beauti- 
ful, Red Rose is a huge variety that should win ribbons wherever shown, and H. R. Han- 
cock with its big white throat always attracts attention. Coutts’ Orchid was fine this 
year, Timor impressive. Magnolia one of the best, and if Rima were placed in this 
class, which is perhaps where it belongs, instead of in the pinks, it would in our opinion 
lead the list.

The new Minstrel is certainly splendid, big in size and uniform in performance, will 
doubtless garner many firsts in show exhibition. Elizabeth the Queen gets better and 
better, inclined to be a trifle short in height, it stretched a little this year and made mar- 
velous spikes. Color, form, texture, placement all one could ask for, in a Glad. We 
are able to reduce the price this year so that it is within reach of the commercial grow- 
er. Lavender and Gold is in the 300 class, but because of the charm of its color and 
its perfect growing habits we think it due to become a great commercial. Badger
