cities he visited. It is hinted that he 

 has secured some new roses. Mrs. Axell 

 accompanied him on the trip. 



The United Flower & Supply Co. has 

 80 far received about fifty dozen of the 

 early chrysanthemum, Early Frost, and 

 reports an excellent demand for it. 

 Other chrysanthemums are growing 

 nicely, with indications of a plenteous 

 supply of Monrovia, October Frost, etc., 

 by August 15. 



Mrs. R. E. Darbee, who has gardens 

 at Colma, Ocean View and San Leandro, 

 and a retail store at 1036 Hyde street, 

 has been enjoying a much-needed rest in 

 the mountains of Mendocino county. She 

 is expected back the end of the week, 

 after an absence of nearly a month. 



Everybody in the trade was looking 

 forward with pleasant anticipation to 

 the florists ' picnic at Pinehurst, in Con- 

 tra Costa county, July 30. Judging 

 from the number of tickets sold, it was 

 said that the attendance would be larger 

 this year than ever before. 



Chas. F. Shellgrain, manager of the 

 J. B. Boland store on Kearny street, 

 says business is keeping up fairly well 

 for this season of the year. 



F. C. Jaeger, of the MacRorie-Mc- 

 Laren Co., has returned to duty after 

 a pleasant trip to Lake Tahoe with his 

 family, and F. H. Forrest plans to leave 

 in a few days for a vacation in the 

 southern part of the state. 



N. A. Baldocchi, of Podesta & Bal- 

 docchi, is the owner of a new touring 

 ear. 



At the flower and seed stand in the 

 Emporium department store, operated 

 by Chas. Navlet, of San Jose, Cal., a 

 big demand is reported for coleus 

 plants. 



Quarters are being fitted up in the 

 California Flower Market for the use 

 of the Chinese growers in selling their 

 aster and chrysanthemum crops this 

 season. 



A. Podesta, of Podesta & Baldocchi, 

 is about ready to leave on a two weeks' 

 automobile trip to southern California. 



Word has been received here that 

 C. W. Ward, of the Cottage Qardens 

 Co., Eureka, Cal., will be down shortly 

 to arrange for an outing of florists at 

 his place in the Klamath Falls country, 

 sometime in August. Several members 

 of the local trade enjoyed his hospital- 

 ity on a similar trip last year. A pleas- 

 ant feature is the fact that the last 

 four hours' ride is taken in canoes up 

 the river. 



Pelicano, Bossi & Co. report good 

 success with Irish Fireflame roses. 



The trade was well represented in the 

 preparedness parade held here Juhr 29. 

 A. J. Rossi, A. O. Stein and Julius 

 Eppstein composed the committee which 

 organized the marching division. All 

 the downtown stores agreed to close at 

 1 o'clock in order that the members 

 and employees could march. 



The California Dahlia Growers' Asso- 

 ciation has held several meetings and 

 secured many new members. It has 

 plans well under way for a dahlia show 

 to be given in the ballroom of the Pal- 

 ace hotel, September 7, 8 and 9. The 

 premium list will be out shortly. Presi- 

 dent T. A. Bums says everything points 

 to a most successful show. 



A. F. Lundberg now is well settled 

 in his location at 1440 Polk stre^, 

 which is the handsomest shop in that 

 part of the city. The store is 22x100 

 feet, with a 22-foot driveway in the 

 rear for receiving and sending out 

 stock. The salesroom is finished a soft

We were certainly pleased with the results secured 



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

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

 and produced great Quantities of blooms. 



CHAS. B. SAYRE. instructor in Floriculture. 



I have received over 1000 such testimonials inside of ten months. 



WARNIHGt— There are or will be advertised many so-called new Winter Spencers. I 

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

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

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

 judge for yourself.
