Peninsula Nursery. Nels Petcrsou, 

 proprietor of the nursery, was a San 

 Francisco visitor last week and told Mr. 

 Axell that he could expect a fine car- 

 nation crop within a short time. 



The E, W. McLellan Co., Inc., has 

 added to the staff of the Bush street 

 depot, which has been taxed to capacity 

 in filling the recent shipping orders. 

 Manager Avansino states that the de- 

 mand for chrysanthemums is just as 

 strong as ever, with advance orders 

 now coming in for roses and violets. 

 The violet crop will be ready for ship- 

 ment about October 20. 



The United Flower & Supply Co. re- 

 ports a scarcity of early chrysanthe- 

 mums, but is expecting the crop of later 

 blooms to be ready for handling within 

 the next week or two. This firm has 

 had all the shipping work that could be 

 desired. The violet stock from the 

 various growers is just commencing to 

 come in, but at present most of the 

 flowers are taken by local florists. 

 This concern expects to ship violets 

 about the middle of October. 



Domoto Bros, are busy with mum 

 shipments and have succeeded in get- 

 ting in a fair supply of stock, which is 

 <juite welcome in view of the present 

 demand. 



Pelicauo, Rossi & Co. were in charge 

 of the decorations for the luncheon at 

 the Palace hotel October 1, at which 

 Senator Hiram .Tolinson spoke. Dr, 

 Tevis dahlias formed the basis of a 

 striking color scheme at the speakers' 

 table, carried out through the entire 

 group of dining rooms with dahlias of 

 various hues and varieties. 



A visitor last week was C. B. Knick- 

 man, representing McHutchison & Co., 

 of New York. Mr.> Knickman stopped 

 a few days in this city on his way back 

 to headquarters after a two months' 

 trip in Japan in regard to the lily mar- 

 ket for the coming season. He states 

 that American dealers may expect a 

 scarcity of lilies and good, stiff prices. 

 "Japan had about one-half its normal 

 crop this year,'' he said, "and this con 

 dition, together with the difficulty in 

 securing space on steamers and the de- 

 lay caused by the sterilization process 

 through whicli all soil exported from 

 Japan must go, will render the lily mar- 

 ket a difficult one in this country. 

 Then, too, England's raising the em- 

 bargo on bulbs creates another large 

 market which will have to be stocked 

 by Japanese growers. ' ' 



Other visitors in this city last week 

 included Robert Newcomb, of the Bur- 

 lington Willow Ware Shops and other 

 eastern firms, and Charles G. Washburn, 

 of Bassett & Washburn, of Chicago, who 

 has been s])en(]ing some time at his 

 ranch at Sierra Madre, accompanied by 

 Mrs. Waslihurii.
