Bonnaffon is as good as any. Tbe best 

 pink of the week is Columbia. Possibly 

 the warm weather has helped to bring on 

 the stock of chrysanthemums, as there 

 has been a great quantity available. 



There are some good Beauties coming 

 on. They are not in oversupply as yet, 

 but it is still a little early in the season 

 to expect the sale of any quantity of 

 American Beauties. There are some ex- 

 cellent Mrs. Chas. Bussell and Mrs. 

 George Shawyer. Mrs. Shawyer is simi- 

 lar to Bridesmaid, but much more popu- 

 lar on the coast. 



There are some fine gardenias and cat- 

 tleyas available; also some wonderful 

 sprays of Oncidium varicosum Bogersii. 

 The cyclamens brought to the market 

 thus far are not particularly well grown 

 plants, although some of our local grow- 

 ers have some excellent specimen cycla- 

 men stock and promise to bring forth 

 some "eye-openers." The month of 

 October thus far is normal from a busi- 

 ness standpoint. Before the next two 

 weeks are over a great deal of added 

 activity is expected. 



Horticultural Society. 



A feature of general interest was a 

 dahlia show given by the Pacific Coast 

 Horticultural Society at Sachem hall, 

 Redmen's building, Saturday night, 

 October 10. The show was open to all. 

 The competition was quite keen and the 

 display was of unusual interest and 

 merit. Among the leading exhibitoriS 

 were Frank Pelicano. of Pelicano, Rossi 

 & Co., "William Kettlewell, William 

 Munro and Richard Diener. 



The Pacific Coast Horticultural So- 

 ciety, having considerable business of 

 importance to transact, held a meeting 

 while the show was in progress. At this 

 meeting matters pertaining to the S. A. 

 F, convention in San Francisco in 1915 

 were taken up. The committee on sub- 

 scriptions made a gratifying report, as 

 did also the committee for the presi- 

 dent's reception and the committee on 

 auditorium. 



A reception and dance to be given by 

 the members of the society November 

 14 was voted upon. Frank Thatcher was 

 given full charge. The proceeds of this 

 dance were promised as a part subscrip- 

 tion to the entertainment fund, which is 

 rapidly running into the thousands. E. 

 James and Peter Ferrari will assist Mr. 

 Thatcher in completing the arrangements 

 for the reception and dance. 



The following new members were ad- 

 mitted to the society: A. Podesta, E. 

 Goep, M. Malice, H. Breen and Otto 

 Eggers. Various Notes. 



Daniel MacRorie, of the MacRorie- 

 McLaren Co., accompanied by Professor 

 Gregg, of the University of California, 

 W. B. Eberly, of the California Nursery 

 Co., and J. Vallance, attended the con- 

 vention of the California Nurserymen's 

 Association, at San Diego last week. 

 Mr. MacRorie is promoting the success 

 of the 1915 S. A. F. convention with all 

 his characte'riatic vigor. 



E. H. Rust, of Los Angeles, has been 

 looking about the bay for nursery stock. 

 Mr. Rust reports excellent trade condi- 

 tions in the southern part of the state 

 and seems to be quite optimistic in re- 

 gard to the coming season. 



Podesta & Baldocchi report an excel- 

 lent business week, their heaviest trade 

 consisting of funeral work and some 

 large decorations. ' 



Mark E^l, of Sacramento, who is vis- 

 iting San Francisco, says that business 

 has never been better. He has a great
