reopsis, Shasta daisies, statice and corn- 

 flowers continue popular and in ample 

 supply. Many growers stiU are bring- 

 ing in a big cut of sweet peas. Lilium 

 nibrum and L. auratum sell well. Val- 

 ley is a trifle scarce, but several grow- 

 ers have some of it and no real shortage 

 is felt. Gardenias are off crop, while 

 the supply of orchids is about equal to 

 the demand. 



San Francisco Dahlia Show. 



Plans are under way here for a dahlia 

 show this fall, but it has not been deli- 

 nitely decided how many organizations 

 will cooperate jn the arrangements. At 

 its last meeting the Pacific Coast Horti- 

 cultural Society announced that it in- 

 tended to hold a dahlia show, and it is 

 understood that "the California State 

 Floral Society also is figuring on a show. 

 In addition, the dahlia growers have 

 held several meetings within the last 

 week or two and it seems that two dif- 

 ferent organizations have been formed.

We have harvested part of the following

All other varieties will be harvested soon. Ask for complete list. You can get almost all 

 those varieties in my original packets from A. L. Randall Co., Chloasro; R. J. ^rwln. 

 Mew York; B. S. Skldelaky, Philadelphia. Never accept any Winter Orchid Sweet 

 Pea Seed in open packet or without my trade mark on it. It surely will be fraud. 



Novelties will be ready in August.

We were certainly pleased with the results secured 



from your SMd last year and florists who visited the University greenhouses said they 

 were the finest swett peas they had ever seen. They made an unusually strong growth 

 and produced great quantities of blooms.

I have received over 1000 such testimonials inalda itt t«n months. 



WARNING:— There are or will be advertised many so-o^l\«d new Winter Spencers. I 

 have seen many new names on the Exhibition tables, but by oaref ul examination all were 

 identical with my older Winter Orchid, years in commerce, axoepting the Yarrawa. Should 

 you buy any such so-called novelty, test it side by side with my original varieties and 

 judge for yourself.
