although the almost total absence of 

 functions of any sort except funerals has 

 demoralized the demand for everything 

 except white stock. There has been con- 

 siderable talk among the retailers that a 

 few of them would locate in that town, 

 but at this writing there has been no in- 

 crease in the number of stores there. 

 Everyone is waiting patiently — and im- 

 patiently — for something to happen, they 

 do not know what; and until the trend 

 of trade takes a decided stand and the 

 confines of the business portion receive 

 a decided outline, little will be done. As 

 the matter stands at present, all the 

 large retail stores in the various lines of 

 trade are locating temporarily several 

 miles from the district in which they 

 formerly were stationed, and in a short 

 time I expect to see some of the more 

 enterprising florists located in their wake. 



Various Notes. 



D. H. Lenox, of Los Angeles, is in 

 town on a week's visit. 



The California Iloral Society will 

 make no effort to give an exhibition 

 until fall. 



The Society Hortensia had its usual 

 bi-monthly meeting on Saturday evening 

 last in Gier's hall, Oakland. 



There are many gardeners at present 

 out of employment. The closing down 

 of some of the houses by the big growers 

 is responsible for this. 



Not less than half a dozen of the lead- 

 ing aster and chrysanthemum growers 

 in the neighborhood of San Mateo will 

 allow their patches of young plants to

PACIFIC 



COAST 



TOURS 



A new booklet just issued under this 

 title should be in the hands of every 

 person who expects to make a trip west 

 of the Rockies this year. 



It outlines all the routes to the Coast, 

 shows maps of each, contains a large map 

 of the country from the Great Lakes to 

 the Coast and has a great deal of valu- 

 able information about side trips, inter- 

 esting sights, etc. 



The booklet is finely printed and hand- 

 somely illustrated. Its use will save you 

 the trouble of getting and combining the 

 separate booklets of the many different 

 roads reaching the Pacific. 



Your request on a postal, mentioning 

 the name of this paper, will bring a copy 

 by return mail.

 be demand for more than one-half of the 

 stock grown, and as it costs considerable 

 to handle the plants at this time, they 

 will call "quits." 



A. Mann, Jr., was the first among the 

 burned-out florists to get into the har- 

 ness again. He is rapidly stocking up 

 with a good assortment of florists' sup- 

 plies.
