earlier than usual this year, in order to 

 make room for ferns. 



Eobert G. Fraser & Son are handling 

 an extra fine strain of double cosmos, 

 with flowers of a great variety of colors 

 and shades and stems long, stiff and 

 wiry, fine for baskets and other high- 

 class florists' work. Though there are 

 several strains of double cosmos on the 

 market, they are the raisers of this type 

 and hold the entire stock. H. B. B.

The Market. 



Chrysanthemums still dominate the 

 market, though some of the large varie- 

 ties, grown under cloth, are at the end 

 of their season. Turner is practically 

 over and Chieftain is growing scarcer 

 every day. If heavy frosts and storms 

 hold off, however, there will probably 

 be a fair supply of chrysanthemums un- 

 til the middle of December. For the 

 last ten days the weather has been as 

 sunny and warm as in June, though the 

 nights have brought occasional light 

 frosts. There is an abundance of out- 

 door mums of all colors and sizes and 

 these are extensively used, both locally 

 and for shipping. The fact that eastern 

 growers now have mums coming in more 

 plentifully has caused some of the ship- 

 pers to have a certain number of orders 

 canceled, though others report as much 

 activity in mums as ever. 



Good roses and carnations are still 

 scarce, partly because the demand for 

 them is so brisk that the market is 

 cleaned up every day. Violets are in 

 excellent condition for shipping and the 

 market is abundantly supplied with 

 them. Orchids and gardenias are some- 

 what more plentiful. Lilies of the val- 

 ley are still scarce and in much demand. 



VariouB Notes. 



Landscape gardening, until recently 

 a neglected art in the planning of 

 California homes, seems rapidly to be 

 coming into its own. One of the latest 

 landscape gardening announcements is 

 that of Cotton & Co., landscape archi- 

 tects in the Call building, who have 

 completed plans for a little formal gar- 

 den with tea house, pool and wall foun- 

 tain on the property of Mrs. M. E. 

 Gaines, in Piedmont, a fashionable 

 suburb of Oakland. The estimated cost 

 is $2,500.

nia climate and the fact that seasons 

 are not always alike, it is not possible 

 to predict, with certainty, the exact 

 date at which bulbs will flower. C. 

 Kooyman, who is a bulb expert, is mak- 

 ing a study of seasons and soil. He be- 

 lieves that, eventually, bulb growing 

 will become a more exact science in this 

 state.

J. A. Axell predicts that carnations 

 will be high during the coming season, 

 owing to the fact that a number of the 

 growers have taken out their carnations 

 this year and substituted roses. He 

 I said, "Some of the carnations now com-
