is lighter, and shipping demand for 

 Mothers' day brought an advance in 

 prices. Ixiaa are cleaned up, but a 

 late crop is expected. The cut of iris 

 veas light for a day or two, but there 

 is more than ever now, much of it ex- 

 tremely fine, and prices are well main- 

 tained. Sweet peas are not plentiful, 

 but there are about all that can be 

 readily disposed of, and a good many 

 are taken by the street venders. A 

 little nice snapdragon is appearing. 

 Gladioli are not yet plentiful, but good 

 weather will probably bring a liberal 

 supply. Some good Ulrich Brunner and 

 Mrs. John Laing roses are coming in 

 and are quite popular, while Cecile 

 Brunner is as popular as ever and moves 

 in large quantities. Some pretty win- 

 dows of single Irish roses are shown, 

 and attract considerable attention. A 

 few more lilies of the valley are com- 

 ing in. Gardenias are about as fine as 

 ever, with a fluctuating demand. Cat- 

 tleya Mossiaj is still plentiful, and 

 some phalaenopsis, eypripediums and 

 odontoglossums are shown. Plants are 

 fairly plentiful; there are a good many 

 rhododendrons, blooming finely, and 

 Tausendschon ramblers are a prominent 

 feature in several shops. 



Horticultural Society Meeting. 



At the monthly meeting of the Pa- 

 cific Coast Horticultural Society, on the 

 evening of May 1, the most interesting 

 feature was Daniel MacRorie's report 

 nn preparations for the S. A. F. con- 

 vention. As to the convention gardens, 

 he announced that there were already 

 some 8,000 square feet of space signed 

 up, with applications coming in all the 

 time, and it looked as if a fine showing 

 would be made. He announced that 

 the ground was thoroughly prepared 

 and ready for the installation of ex- 

 hibits. H. Plath, on behalf of the ex- 

 hibition committee, reported that a 

 good sum would be available for prizes 

 for the fall flower show, and with prep- 

 arations under way so far ahead it 

 should be possible to get up something 

 out of the ordinary in the way of ex- 

 hibits. He also mentioned the show to 

 be held May 7 to 9 at the exposition by 

 amateur floral societies, and recom- 

 mended that some of the Horticultural 

 Society members take advantage of the 

 invitation to place exhibits there. He 

 also mentioned a sweet pea show to be 

 held in June, full information on which 

 was not at hand. It was announced 

 that the Ladies' S. A. F. committee 

 would meet May 7, to discuss a pro- 

 gram of entertainment for the ladies 

 at the convention. The resignation of 

 .los. R. Jacques from the oflice of treas- 

 urer was presented and accepted, Mr. 

 Jacques being unable to attend the 

 meetings regularly; Daniel Raymond, 

 of the Garden City Pottery Co., was
