LOS ANGELES SEED NOTES. 



Fall trade is already beginning and 

 the retailers are preparing for it by 

 getting popular seeds packeted up 

 ready. The prevalent idea seems to 

 be that the seed crops generally are in 

 better condition than was at one time 

 thought, but sweet peas are extremely 

 short. 



C. Winsel is digging lily ponds at 

 the MontebsUo place, and will use waste 

 water from irrigating to grow them in. 

 Considering the'stort time he has been 

 at work, the place looks remarkably 

 well and reflecte'great 'credit on him.
