 in good stock. Good reports come in 

 from Texas as to the condition of the 

 stock on arrival there. 



Tassano Bros, are well pleased with 

 their new location and Tony says, busi- 

 ness is much better than usual at this 

 season. Fine stock is coming in from 

 the Artesia ranch. H. R. Eichards. 



SAN FRANCISCO. 



The Market. 



The Jewish holidays the first part of 

 the week brought a heavy demand for 

 both cut flowers and potted plants. 

 "With some store.s the arrival of large 

 numbers of enlisted men also brought 

 a noticeable increase in sales. 



The growers have not been so for- 

 tunate as the dealers, as the hot weather 

 at the end of last week did much dam- 

 age to the blooms. As a result first- 

 class flowers have been a little scarce, 

 but are now beginning to come in nor- 

 mal supply. Carnations are still scarce, 

 but growers promise a plentiful supply 

 next week. The demand for these is 

 active, all available carnations being 

 snapped up at $5 per hundred, which 

 would ordinarily be considered an ex- 

 orbitant price at this time of the year. 

 The rose situation has not improved, 

 the few extremely hot days having done 

 some damage. Violets are still too soft 

 for shipping. In fact, dealers are look- 

 ing forward to a general scarcity of 

 violets, and to high prices, as the crop 

 is smaller than usual and there are 

 reports of a decided shortage in pickers. 

 Some growers and wholesalers are ad- 

 vocating higher prices in order to per- 

 mit of better wages and better flowers. 



Chrysanthemums also were ton soft 

 for shipping, but they are now begin- 

 ning to reach this market in good 

 quantities, particularly the yellow and 

 white varieties. Pink mums are still 

 scarce, and all offerings are above the 

 normal in price. Orchids are still in 

 short supply, but the growers expect 

 to have an abundance within the next 

 ten days. The sweet j>ea crop lias be- 

 gun to arrive in good shape. Ship- 

 ments of asters have practically 

 stopped, the crop being about cleaned 

 out. Valley is scarce and so far is not 

 all that could be desired as to quality, 

 wholesalers in most cases hesitating to 

 accept advance orders for it. Potted

]ilants are scarce, the supply not being 

 up to the demand; and ferns arc not 

 as plentiful as could l)e desired. In 

 general, business for September is 

 larger by a nice margin than that don^ 

 in August. No flowers are going to 

 tlie dump, as the demand exceeds the 

 supply. Collections arc good. 



Various Notes. 



Following the dahlia show held 



earlier in the month at the Palace hotel, 

 the Dalilia Society of California has 

 decided to hold a second show, this 

 time at the St. Francis hotel, Sei)teni- 

 ber 27, 28 and 29. The dates give an 

 opportunity for the display of the later 

 blooming varieties, as well as a better 

 chance for those who did not secure 

 suitable space at the first show. The 

 committee in charge of the coming 

 sliow includes the following: Mr*. Jessie
