which he promised to do. The question 

 box led to an interesting discussion 

 on several points. 



T, D. Robertson, of Fullerton, has an 

 interesting place containing much that 

 is not grown in the ordinary nursery 

 and a rather hasty look around recently 

 showed everything in first-class order. 



Although I have visited the Superior 

 Nursery a good many times, I have 

 never seen the stock in such splendid 

 condition as this year. Space forbids 

 a lengthy notice, but a batch of about 

 2,000 magnificent cyclamens must be 

 noted. The plants are fifteen to eighteen 

 inches across, with foliage as attractive 

 as the flowers and of a superb strain. 

 Hundreds of Begonia Gloire de Lor- 

 raine and Glory of Cincinnati are here 

 in perfect order, also fine batches of 

 poinsettias and other stock advancing 

 for Christmas. Ferns are a specialty 

 here and the benches of Bostons, Whit- 

 man!, Piersoni and others are in fine 

 condition. Propagation is constantly 

 going on and every inch of space is 

 utilized. The place is well worth a 

 visit. 



W. Armacost & Co. are cutting splen- 

 did Bonnaffons now and some of the 

 stock shipped in to Wolf skills '& Morris 

 Goldenson would be hard to beat. 



The monthly meeting of the Los 

 Angeles County Horticultural Society 

 was held in Kruckeberg's hall October 

 6. W. Felgate, of Sierra Madre, again 

 made a fine exhibit of zinnias and a 

 number of choice vegetables, including 

 some immense Black Beauty eggplant. 

 Mr. Felgate spoke at considerable 

 length on the culture of these and other 

 plants and his remarks were, as usual, 

 punctuated with humorous allusions to 

 many of the audience and their peculi- 

 arities. A pleasant surprise to all was 

 to see George Roeding, of the Fancher 

 Creek Nurseries, of Fresno, walk in. 

 Called upon for a speech, Mr. Roeding 

 gave an impromptu address, short, but 

 pithy and interesting. 



Henry W. Turner is already working 

 on his stock of new roses for next 

 season. He has over 10,000 already of 

 the popular September Morn. Ophelia 

 is grand here now and is being propa- 

 gated largely. Rapid transit with the 

 new delivery car is considerably widen- 

 ing Mr. Turner's field of action, 



Fred Sperry has made a good start 

 in his location on Winston street. He 

 says he is going to do a strictly whole- 

 sale business and will carry no "red 

 violets," 



Smith & Dieterich opened up October 

 10 with a nice show of stock and every- 

 one in the trade wishes them well.

The Market. 



As the season advances we note a 

 general increase along all lines. The 

 cold and rainy weather of the last few 

 weeks is being followed by bright 

 weather, which is a great benefit to all 

 stock growing in the greenhouses. Out- 

 door stock is still on the market in 

 limited quantities and everyone is look- 

 ing for a good frost to do away with 

 this class of stock. Carnations are now 

 in greater supply, the quality being 

 somewhat improved. Roses are to be 

 had only in limited quantities and are 

 not of the best, Violets have not yet 

 made their appearance, while chrysan- 

 themums are the flowers most in de- 

 mand. Potted stock is being shown in

Pacific Coast advertisers al- 

 most invariably report good 

 results. Like this: 



Say I That ad's a humdinger for gettins the 

 business.— Everett Floral Co., Everett, Wash. 



I sold all the Mum cuttings advertised, and yoo 

 will not bear from me again until I can get some 

 more stock ready. Shall root 100.000 Carnation 

 cuttings for next season, as I know The Review 

 will sell them for me.— Frank Wilhelm, Los An- 

 geles, Cal. 



Please cut out of our advertisement in The Re- 

 view the cyclamen seedlings. We sold all our 

 surplus cyclamen seedlings as a direct result of 

 our advertisement In your paper.— Spokane 

 Oreenhouses (Inc.), Spokane, Wash. 



We want to say that our last advertisement in 

 The Review brought us orders from both the At- 

 lantic and Pacific coasts. We had, strangely 

 enough, on following days, orders from Salem, 

 Ore., and from Salem, Mass.— State Floral Co.. 

 North Yakima. Wash. 



We are well pleased with the results obtained 

 by advertising in the Pacific Coast Department of 

 llie Review. We sold out clean and refused 

 many orders. The Review surely gives results- 

 —Van Slyke & Seamons, Tacoma, Wash. 



The transient rate for space 

 is $1 per inch per insertion. 

 Those who have stock to offer 

 all or a considerable part of 

 the year aronnd should writ") 

 for contract rates.
