The Rose Festival. The rose festival that just ended was a great success. Portland gained much fame by staging such an affair. One of the main attractions was the festival center, which comprised two city blocks. This was laid out and de- signed by Mr. Felan. These blocks were made up of beds of different de- signs, and the space was assigned to the different florists and growers. Wilson-Crout-Gehr Co. displayed beds of coleus, geraniums and cinerarias. John Holden had a large circular bed of hydrangeas and cannas and, for the centerpiece, a large container of cut Prince of Wales gladioli. O. E. Panzer displayed a bed of schi- zanthus and fuchsias with a border of ageratums. John Zimmerman had a variety of flowers, probably not less than fifty different sorts. The Mountain View Floral Co. had an attractive bed of peach bells and larkspur, cannas and Japanese maples. The Swiss Floral Co. displayed its famous petunias and bordered the bed with coleus. Niklas & Son had a nice showing of cannas, hydrangeas, salvias and gera- niums. The Clarke Bros, bed, near one of the entrances, showed up to good advan- tage. Their main showing was gera- niums, pink hydrangeas and snapdrag- ons. Various Notes. The Portland Rose Society held its an- nual rose show at the city auditorium during the rose festival.
