Tacoraa, Wash. • Trade conditions are good at present and the prospects are splendid for a fine trade tlie balance of the season. Our supplies of flowers ar(t hardly equal to the demand, with prices equal to former years. The finer chrysanthemums have been generally preferred and purchased at good prices this season, whereas in the past preference seemed to favor smaller and medium sizes and prices. We think that a healthy sign. Carna- tions are coming in good and hold the call; generally they sell at 75 cents per dozen, the better whites and Enchantress at .$1. The old reliable pink, Lawson. will not sell, so growers are cutting it out this season around here. The two whites. Lady Bountiful and White Per- fection, are fine and vei-y popular as they deserve to be. and as they are so gen- erally satisfactory, we think they are here to stay. It is easy to see the flowers are going "to be far short of the call for Christmas, and red carnations will be at a premium. Generally the growers are not giving very much space to red. They all report the demand outside of holidays poor and so don't go in very heavy on them. We lately made a trip around among the growers and found stock in first class shape with promise for a good cut for Christmas. Chrysanthemums were all good but late. The white raised from seed by A. A. Hinze is very fine. There will be a very good quantity of splendid flowers for Christmas. West- ern King seems to be a general favorite and comes fine. Very few roses are grown around here and our supplies are from the Sibson Rose Nursery, Portland, Ore., and Cle Elum. Practically no violets are grown around h
