is a big job. Mr. Dostal is well 

 pleased with the success of his new 

 venture. 



Some fine Cattleya gigas — evidently 

 of a later-flowering variety than the 

 type — are making a nice display at 

 Wright's Flower Shop. F. Westrom 

 says that with others of the staff on 

 their vacations, it is keeping him and 

 those remaining on the jump to keep up 

 with the orders. 



8. Murata & Go. have an immense 

 stock of baskets at their large store on 

 Los Angeles street. Besides large con- 

 signments of domestic manufacture, 

 Mr. Murata has a large stock coming 

 from Japan and the baskets are ex- 

 tremely attractive. He says it is dif- 

 ficult to procure suflScient good stock 

 to keep up with the demand for long- 

 distance shipping. 



Some of the finest auratums yet seen 

 in the city were noted at the store of 

 the Broadway Florist. Business is 

 brisk here, but the wedding bells that 

 we have all been listening for so long 

 are slow in ringing. But Dan says, 

 "Make no mistake; they are going to 

 ring all right." 



George Hall & Co. are making up a 

 carload of palms and other stock for 

 a southeastern shipment. 



Mrs. Steke, of the Great Bend Green- 

 houses, Great Bend, Kan., who has been 

 visiting her father and friends in Pas- 

 adena, intends leaving for home 

 shortly, as she says they will be getting 

 busy and she wants to be there.

The Market. 



Asters are not so plentiful as they 

 were a few weeks ago. Many that come 

 in are not so fine as they have been. 

 The decreased supply of asters has 

 caused a slight increase in prices. 



Good roses and carnations are scarce. 

 There are some attractive roses on the 

 market, most of which are at present 

 needed for local demand. It is too early 

 for chrysanthemums to be considered 

 actually in season. Two weeks from 

 now, it will begin to be profitable and
