from plentiful. Violets are somewhat 

 improved, both in quality and quantity, 

 but the crop is far from being a normal 

 one, as plants and leaves suffered from 

 frost. Acacia sprays are more in evi- 

 dence, but the flowers are small and not 

 luxuriant. Daffodils are more plentiful, 

 but they are expensive and the supply 

 does not equal the demand. The same is 

 true of freesias, Paper White narcissi 

 and China lilies. Tulips and hyacinths 

 help to save the situation. They are sold 

 on the bulb and potted, but the florists 

 who buy them on the bulb, pot them and 

 dress them up attractively with colored 

 mats, ribbons, etc., to help give a blaze 

 of color to the displays in the stores. 

 There are some almond sprays, both pink 

 and white, and pussy willows sell read- 

 ily, as also do eucalyptus buds. Gar- 

 denias are still scarce and lily of the 

 valley is also scarce. Orchids are not 

 so easy to obtain as they were a week or 

 two ago, but the crop is still fairly good. 

 Carnations are about as scarce as they 

 have been throughout the month. 



Various Notes. 



In spite of the stock shortage, most 

 of the local stores seem to have done a 

 good business on St. Valentine's day. 



The Central Bureau of San Francisco, 

 consisting of thirty-seven organizations, 

 has elected Angelo J. Rossi, of Pelicano, 

 Rossi & Co., as its president. Reports 

 show that 248,000 people attended the 

 California industries exposition, of 

 which Mr. Rossi was president. The 

 financial report of the exposition shows 

 a balance of $9,577.49. During the three 

 weeks it was open, the exposition at- 

 tracted national attention. 



Frank D. Pelicano, of Pelicano, Rossi 

 & Co., is able to be back at the store, 

 after being kept at home for two weeks 

 by illness. 



Charles Brown, of Brown & Kennedy, 

 is reported to be out of danger and 

 recovering in a satisfactory way. Mr, 

 Brown had an acute attack of grip, 

 which caused considerable anxiety. 



General A. J. Gooch, of Darbee's, 

 who has been ill with an attack of grip, 

 is now on the way to recovery, 



Al. J, Nevraumon, of the California 

 Seed Co., has contributed an interesting
