Orchids .are scarce and there is barely 

 enough valley to tide over the demand. 

 Some days the shortage is acute. Gar- 

 denias help to relieve the situation, but 

 they are not so plentiful as they were. 



Various Notes. 



Joseph Lagomarsino, one of the lead- 

 ing violet growers of California, has 

 sixteen acres planted to violets at 

 Colma, south of San Francisco, from 

 which he expects to begin picking about 

 August 27. From present indications 

 he will have a splendid crop. At the 

 height of the season last year he cut 

 around 280 dozen bunches per day. 



G. Madvig, of the C. Kooyman Co., 

 Inc., is gratified to learn that their long- 

 distance aster shipments are arriving in 

 good condition. They were a little un- 

 certain about sending them as far as 

 Atlanta, Ga., but have received word 

 that the experiment was successful. The 

 new basket department at this estab- 

 lishment is getting a nice lot of orders. 



.r. A. Axell, manager of the E. W. Mc- 

 Lellan Co., is spending his vacation in 

 Mendocino county, hunting and fishing. 

 Friends are wishing him good luck. 



E. W. McLellan returned recently 

 from southern Oregon, where he went 

 to accompany his family home for the 

 opening of school. Mrs. McLellan had 

 l)een there for several weeks for the 

 benefit of her health. 



V. Holmes, superintendent of the Mc- 

 i-ellan nurseries, has recovered from an 

 attack of scarlet fever, which forced 

 an absence of eight weeks. 



V. Podesta, of Podesta & Baldocchi, 

 is back from a delightful automobile 

 trip to Lake Tahoe and other points of 

 interest. N. F. Baldocchi reports busi- 

 ness satisfactory for the season of the 

 year. 



B. M. Joseph is getting a fine lot of 

 snapdragons. The colors are particu- 

 larly good and Manager F. J. Bertrand

The Market. 



August business so far has been satis- 

 factory, but the lack of rain has re- 

 sulted in a shortage of outdoor stock, 

 and asters, which usually can be 

 counted on for August, are of poor 

 quality. The recently j)lauted carna- 

 tions are in good form, but it seems that 

 not so many are being grown as last 

 year. The stock of pot plants for win- 

 ter sales appears to be short and not 

 far advanced. Many of the growers 

 have been busy stringing up the chrys- 

 anthemums, of which there will be an 

 ample supply when the time comes. Im- 

 provements, repairs and the acquisition 

 of fuel, aside from vacations, are the 

 order of the day. 



Various Notes. 



August Zitzewitz has recovered from 

 his three weeks of illness and has caught 

 up with his greenhouse work. His car- 

 nations, of which there are about 8,000, 

 are in fine condition. He has two houses 

 of mums, one of greens and a small one 

 of Christmas begonias. He reports that 

 trade during the last year has been 

 satisfactory, especially in the shipping 

 end of it.
