Wliile the presidential party was in 

 Oakland, a number of prominent ladies 

 of that city arranged with several estab- 

 lishments to see that Mrs. Wilson was 

 generously supplied with fresh corsages 

 of orchids at every occasion. Among 

 the scores- of offerings received by the 

 party in San Francisco were orchids 

 from Raphael Weill, and from Governor 

 William D. Stephens and Mrs. Stephens; 

 roses from Mrs. Frederick Funston and 

 the Century Club; roses and chrysanthe- 

 juums from Henry T. Scott; orchids and 

 hydrangeas from Thomas J. Coleman, 

 manager of the St. Francis hotel, the 

 temporary White House, and a basket 

 six feet high filled with yellow chrys- 

 anthemums from Mayor James Rolph, 

 Jr.. and Mrs, Rolph. 



A beautiful and original basket was 

 presented to the President by the Cali- 

 fornia Wine Association. This appears 

 in an illustration on another page. 

 Upon leaving the city, the President 

 presented the basket to the wounded 

 soldiers at the Letterman hospital. 

 The piece was made up in the shop of 

 Pclicano, Rossi & Co. 



Various Notes. 



Due to the demand for chrysanthe- 

 mums at the present time, the E. W. 

 McLellan Co. has been obliged to cut 

 down many of its large orders. This 

 company is beginning to cut roses, but 

 not to any large extent as yet. Henry 

 Avansino, manager of the Bush street 

 depot, states that practically all of the 

 stock is cleaned up each dav. 



The United Flower & Supply Co. re- 

 ported similar conditions in regard to 

 chrysanthemum shii)nients last week, 

 but is expecting relief as soon as the 

 crop of later varieties is ready for cut- 

 ting. 



Enomoto & Co. nrc experiencing a 

 shortage of yellow chrysanthemums, 

 but Mr. Enomoto states that a plentiful 

 supply of all the later varieties is ex- 

 pected about October 10. 



J. A. Axell says that he is receiving 

 favorable reports from his eastern muni 

 shipments. A tunnel cave-in just above 

 Redding, Cal., has tied up' northern 

 shipments to some extent, Mr. Axell 

 says, but this condition will last only 

 a few days. He is getting a fine cut of 

 Russell, Columbia and Ophelia just now, 

 which he is selling for .$1 to .$;i ])er 

 dozen. A good stock of oriental pods, 

 which are most popular at present, is 

 practically sold out. He has also been 

 successful with dyed thistles and 

 statice. 



Mrs. R. E. Darbee, 1036 Hyde street, 

 is busy with out-of-town shipments. Re- 

 cently she made a tour of inspection of 

 the various nurseries in this vicinity in 

 regard to the chrysanthemum situation.
