 MR. W. H. MARCON,

 Dear Sir: 



In repl^ to your letter of January 29th, after careful 

 consideration it has been decided that the cut leaves and 

 branches of cedar, ferns, Oregon grape and other plants in 

 your resrion, if shipped into the United States for decorative 

 purposes, do not require a permit as they are not for propa- 

 gating purpeses and their movement is not restricted. I am 

 so notifying our inspector at Seattle. 



Very truly yours, 



R. KENT BEATTIE, 

 Pathologist in Charge,

 upon arrival at its destination. 



Domoto Bros, sold a quantity of pot- 

 ted camellias which were brought to the 

 local market from their nurseries across 

 the bay. Mr. Domoto stated that last 

 week's demand for camellias was on 

 account of the Chinese New Year cele- 

 bration. Mr. Domoto expects to have 

 some double-flowering plum aoon, as 

 well as a fine crop of Darwin tulips for 

 cutting. 



S. Enomoto, of Enomoto & Co., has 

 just received a large shipment of mats 

 from Japan. His company is shipping 

 large quantities of spring flowers and it 

 is expected that the second rose crop 

 from the Enomoto nurseries will be 

 ready in a few weeks. 



The Silva & Bergtholdt Nursery Co., 

 of Newcastle, Cal., recently purchased 

 a tract of land containing about 100 

 acres, known as the Hannaman ranch, 

 located several miles west of Auburn, 

 Cal. Work has already been started on 

 the property. M. M.

The Market. 



The scarcity of stock has eased up a 

 little. The cost of roses and carna- 

 tions has increased considerably, but 

 they clean up daily with little effort. 

 Boses are arriving in good condition, the 

 quality being good in all grades. Pre- 

 mier and Columbia are demanded more 

 than other varieties. Bulbous stock is 

 available in quantity. The demand is 

 smaller than the supply and much is 

 left on the counters after the day's 

 business. Freesias have been cleaned 

 up well. Violets moved fairly well last 

 week; a few good blanket orders kept 

 them cleaned up. Snapdragons are in 

 demand. Calla lilies clean up well. 

 Calendulas, daisies, wallflowers and 

 others are in fair demand. Greens re- 

 main about the same, still scarce.
