and this is quite sufficient in this cli- 

 mate for carnations. 



If he concludes to plant them in boxes 

 and handle them in that way, they 

 should be planted not over twelve in a 

 box 12x24x6 inches. This I have found 

 to be a very profitable way, as it regu- 

 lates space very nicely and, as I stated 

 before, there is no necessity of devoting 

 over three months at the most to devel- 

 oping and cutting the entire stock. 

 They can be brought on in a shade house 

 and will give better results in most cases 

 than if grown in a house during the 

 warm summer. The season for cutting 

 carnations is from six to eight months 

 after planting and the correspondent 

 will do better to devote his benches to 

 them. G.

The Market. 



The continued warm weather of the 

 last few days has brought many kinds 

 of outside blooms into town with a rush. 

 The white varieties of narcissi are com- 

 pletely out of bloom, likewise the Ko- 

 man hyacinths. Daffodils, except the 

 late blooming sorts, are over. Carm*- 

 tions have dropped quite suddenly in 

 price and the best fancy stock can now 

 be had at three dozen for a dollar. The 

 other kinds do not net the growers more 

 than $2 per hundred. Eoses are only 

 in fair supply and the demand does not 

 more than equal it. Brides and Maids 

 cost the stores about $4 to $6 per hun- 

 dred and short-stemmed stock at about 

 half that price. Violets are daily be- 

 coming scarcer and in a couple of weeks 

 they will have arrived at their growing 

 season when the blooms become very 

 shabby. Freesias are holding out well; 

 also valley and Dutch hyacinths. The 

 prospects are good for a big crop ot 

 Easter lilies; our mild winter and abun- 

 dance of sunshine has had a great deal 

 to do with the case. Wild flowers of 

 various kinds have commenced to make

Various Notes. 



Wm. Simmons, of Elmhurst, will have 

 a big crop of Brides and Maids for 

 Easter. His stock is in splendid con- 

 dition. 



C. W. Bennett, of Berkeley, has one 

 large house devoted entirely to Lilium 

 Harrisii and from present indications he 

 will strike it right for the Easter trade. 

 Mr. Bennett has devoted his attention 

 almost entirely to ferns lor the paso 

 few seasons and his success in that line 

 has tempted him to branch into other 

 lines. ^ 



A. D. Steele, well-known in southern 

 California, is a visitor in town and ex- 

 pects to locate in this neighborhood in 

 the near future. Mr. Steele will prob- 

 ably devote his attention to the growth 

 of cut flowers for market as soon as he 

 finds a suitable location.

 fine Lilium Harrisii from the conserva- 

 tories of Schwerin Bros, at Ingleside.
