Horticultural Society Meeting. 



The Pacific Coast Horticultural So- 

 ciety held its regular monthly meeting 

 July 10. The name of Henry Herr was 

 proposed vfor membership, and Mr. Mit- 

 chell, who joined some time ago, was 

 initiated. H. Plath discussed prepara- 

 tions for the fall flower show and said 

 that considerable interest was being 

 shown, the prize list being in much de- 

 mand. A letter from the secretary of 

 the National Association of Gardeners 

 was read, saying they will convene in 

 San Francisco August 16 to 24, but that 

 the size of the attendance is still largely 

 a matter of conjecture. The convention 

 will be held about the same time as that 

 of the S. A. F., and it was proposed that 

 a joint entertainment be arranged. The 

 suggestion met with favor. W. A. Hof- 

 inghoff reported progress in the organi- 

 zation of the Ladies' California Floral 

 Society, and extended an invitation to 

 the members of the Pacific Coast Hor- 

 ticultural Society and their wives to at- 

 tend a meeting of the newly organized 

 Ladies' Auxiliary at the home of Mr. 

 and Mrs. J. A. Axel July 14. F. Pel- 

 icano reported on behalf of the picnic 

 committee, which was appointed at the 

 last meeting, and recommended that the 

 outing be held in September, probably 

 at Grand Canyon park. With regard to 

 field day, Mr. Eaymond extended an in- 

 vitation on behalf of Messrs. James, 

 Plath and Fotheringham, present jury 

 of garden exhibits at the exposition, to 

 visit the grounds Saturday afternoons 

 while their work is in progress. Mr. 

 Plath reported on the S. A. F. conven- 

 tion, saying that the committee had 

 been working hard on the program, and 

 that everything would probably be 

 ready at the time of the next meet- 

 ing. The souvenir program goes to 

 press in a few days. Many entertain- 

 ment features are being arranged. 



The evening's exhibits made a splen- 

 did showing. They included six pots 

 of a! sport of Primula obconica from H. 

 Plath. This exhibit took 90 points. F. 

 Pelicano had a large showing of Mrs. 

 Francis King gladioli, which was rated 

 at 90 points. An exhibit of statice 

 from J. Gill took 80 points, and E. 

 Shillig's showing of vegetables was 

 rated at 70 points. 



Various Notes. 



With reference to the notice of the 

 secretary of the Ladies' S. A. F. on 

 the editorial page of The Eeview of 

 July 8, it is admitted that unwarranted 

 liberty was perhaps taken in referring 

 to the new organization as the Ladies' 

 S. A. F., the confusion arising from 

 the fact that the principal object of 

 the local society was for the ladies con- 

 nected with the local trade to extend 

 the hospitality of the San Francisco 

 women to the ladies attending the S. A. 

 F. convention. Nobody here had any in- 

 tention to give offense, and it is greatly 

 regretted if reference to the organiza- 

 tion has caused any animosity. The 

 organization here is now known offici- 

 ally as the Ladies' California Floral 

 Society.

The Market. 



The weather man has lost control of 

 the ypeather. For the last ten days 

 his daily order for "fair and warmer" 

 has been followed by a clouded sky, 

 cool air and showers. This perverse 

 condition has been confined to the 

 Willamette and lower Columbia val- 

 leys. The quality of indoor flowers 

 has imp»oved and the season for some 

 of the outdoor varieties has been pro- 

 longed. 



Thousands of Shriners have stopped 

 on the way to and from their conven- 

 tion at Seattle and their entertainment 

 has cleaned up the surplus stock. 

 There is a normal demand for decora- 

 tive plants and the call for funeral 

 work is better than last week. A 

 heavy supply of splendid outdoor flow- 

 ers is coming, in and is being cleaned 

 ,up fairly, well at prices which yield a 

 i^rofit. Outdoor gladioli are abundant 

 and good. Indoor roses from newly
