Big Seed Company 



Is Distributing 



New Catalog 



Aggeler & Musser Seed Com- 

 pany, of Los Angeles, Issue 

 24th Annual Book 



One of the largest seed houses in the 

 West, the Aggeler & Musser Seed Com- 

 pany, Sixth and Alameda streets, Los 

 Angeles, have just received the first edi- 

 tion of their new 1917 catalog and are 

 giving it broadcast distribution. This 

 is their 24th annual catalog and it cer- 

 tainly surpasses any previous edition. 



It contains many new features such 

 as hints to the home vegetable gardeuor, 

 how gardening may be made easy, etc. 

 In fact, the supplementary booklet 

 called the "Garden Manual," which 

 heretofore has been printed separately, 

 is this year incorporated in the big an- 

 nual, and is claimed to be one of the 

 most complete seed books published. It 

 contains answers to more than 1,000 

 questions and gives information regard- 

 ing all varieties of plants listed and is 

 fully illustrated. Not only does it tell 

 all about seeds, but gives full data con- 

 cerning the correct tools and implements 

 agriculturists should use to obtain the 

 best results. Valuable hints on poultry, 

 spraying, fertilizing and the use of in- 

 secticides are also given. 



The Aggeler & Musser Seed Company 

 will gladly send this descriptive, illus- 

 trated and interesting catalog free and 

 postpaid to anyone writing and request- 

 ing it. — Advertisement.

get bettor prices?" Some growers are 

 now selling their carnations at $2 per 

 hundred, wliile some stores are retailing 

 them at $1 per dozen. Some wise chaps 

 talk about the ' ' survival of the fittest ; ' ' 

 maybe the stores can survive at these 

 prices, but the grower will have some 

 trouble to meet his liabilities, and never 

 mind the gasoline. Roses are scarce. 

 The few that come in are of fine quality 

 and are quickly disposed of. Chrysanthe- 

 mums are still helping the appearance 

 of the stores, but the sale for them is 

 not brisk. Bulbous stock is now arriv- 

 ing in increasing quantities and is meet- 

 ing a brisk demand. Good cyclamens 

 are offered. These and primulas consti- 

 tute the principal pot plants now avail- 

 able. 



Various Notes. 



There has been a shake-up in the per- 

 sonnel of the Orpheum Floral Co. Felix 

 Kosaia has withdrawn from the businjess 

 and the company has been disincorpo- 

 rated. The new owners are Allan Beall, 

 of the Woodlawn Flower Store, and S. 

 foolman, of the Woodland Floral Co., 

 ;^-ho took possession the first of the year, 

 ihey have appointed George D. Bates 

 manager, who has a reputation for ef- 

 liciency and who no doubt will prove it 

 '°.,f""fl"^ting this high-class business, 

 ^•ith fine premises and an excellent loca- 

 tion. 



Silvio Rosaia, of Colma, Cal., was here 

 last week visiting his brothers in the 

 trade. ,p -^
