 Los Angeles. He is expected back in a 

 week. 



The Seabright Bulb Co., one of J. A. 

 Axell's growers, is sending in plenty 

 of frcesias, just when Mr. Axell's re- 

 tailers are shy on flowers and need them 

 most. The demand for the baskets in 

 pastel shades handled by Mr. Axell is 

 so great that he is having part of his 

 establishment turned into a display 

 counter and shelves, in order to have 

 space to exhibit an extended line of 

 samples. Carpenters are now at work 

 remodeling the front of the place. 



Enomoto & Co. have a second crop of 

 violets of excellent shipping quality. 

 Their nurseries are cutting carnations 

 and freesias in considerable quantities.

 ply Co. are sending in plenty of nar- 

 cissi, Chinese lilies and other flowers 

 grown from bulbs. They arc also doing 

 well with violets and potted plants, but 

 report a scarcity of roses and carna- 

 tions. 



Domoto Bros, are cutting both long 

 and short-stemmed roses, prinripally 

 Premiers. Their crop of frcesias is also 

 coming in. 



E. W. Rosario finds that his tele- 

 graphic business has greatly increased 

 since opening San Francispo nfficcs at 

 Hyde and .Tones streets. Violets are, 

 at present, the cliicf output of the 

 Colma ranch.

 George P. Wagner, decorator for this

 single dahlias and come in a variety 

 of colors with cone birds to match each 

 set. Mounted on long reeds, they are 

 highly decorative and in much demand.
