Ernest Braunton, who showed a close 

 knowledge of his subject and gave a 

 somewhat lengthy list of palms and 

 their habitats. Mr. Braunton 's paper 

 was well received and he was accorded 

 a rising vote of thanks. 



The monthly meeting of the Los 

 Angeles Nurserymen's Exchange was 

 held at the store of the Germain Seed 

 & Plant Co., February 2. Assessment 

 of nursery stock for taxation was the 

 principal subject of discussion. Parties 

 wishing to. communicate with the ex- 

 change should write to E. Sidebottom, 

 secretary, care of Germain Seed & Plant 

 Co., this city. 



The partnership existing until re- 

 cently between L. Freeman and 

 C. Lewis, doing business under the firm 

 name of Freeman & Lewis, was dis- 

 solved by Mr. Lewis selling his inter- 

 est to Mr. Freeman, who will continue 

 the business. Mr. Lewis will probably 

 remain in the store until after Easter, 

 after which he is considering a trip 

 east. He has had a flattering otEer as 

 artistic director of a well known mov- 

 ing picture concern and is seriously 

 considering taking up this line of work. 



Frank Lichtenberg reports numerous 

 funeral orders, three palls of valuable 

 stock in one day being among the re- 

 cent business. 



Azalea mollis has proven to be a good 

 seller with the Germain Seed & Plant 

 Co. this season. Landscape work here 

 has been held up on account of rain, 

 but now it is being actively pushed. 



The display of phalsenopsis at 

 Wright's Flower Shop last week was 

 magnificent. P. Schilleriana does re- 

 markably well with this concern, pro- 

 ducing immense branching panicles of 

 bloom that aye extremely useful for 

 corsage bouquets. T. Wright says that 

 his customers now will not take cat- 

 tleyas when phalaenopsis can be had — a 

 good sign. 



Bassett & Washburn, of Chicago, are 

 making good progress at the new estab- 

 lishment at Sierra Madre, having built 

 a large lath house covering two acres 

 of land. As previously reported, E. B. 

 Washburn came out here some time ago 

 on account of his poor health, but he 

 now looks the picture of health. He 

 was able to secure an old ranch prop- 

 erty close to Sierra Madre, where the 

 soil is about perfect and the climate 

 right. The idea is to grow kentias for
