chief. Ernest Braunton brought to the 

 meeting an exhibit of gladioli, consist- 

 ing of an old species from Africa, the 

 well known G. Brenchleyensis and a 

 hybrid between the two, raised by him- 

 self. Mr. Braunton spoke at some 

 length on gladioli and his remarks were 

 listened to with considerable interest. 



Tony Tassano has been on a busi- 

 ness trip to San Francisco. 



The Hayward Floral Co. has been 

 busy with decorations of late, one of 

 the prettiest being a pink and green an- 

 niversary decoration. Enchantress car- 

 nations and Killarney roses were the 

 principal flowers used. 



The H. N. Gage Co. has bought ten 

 acres of land at Montebello and will be- 

 gin to move the bulbs and other stock 

 from the Hollywood ranch at once. 

 About 1,000,000 bulbs of various kinds 

 will have to be moved, so it looks as 

 though Norman were in for. a busy time. 



C. A. Brunger, of ifonrnfia, is work- 

 ing upon several novelties, notably a 

 purple winter-flowing'' sWeet pea and 

 a pink variety of Gypsophila elegans. 



At the Los AngeleS Tlower Market I 

 noticed some grand lots of Mrs. Francis 

 King gladioli being shipped. The stock 

 was in the finest possible condition. 



Tom Wright, of Wright's Flower 

 Shop, accompanied by Mrs. Wright, 

 toured from Los Angeles up the coast 

 to San Francisco, and thence to Lake 

 Tahoe by automobile. On their return 

 Manager W. Wern and Mrs. Wern start 

 for Portland and Seattle. 



A new heavy weight champion — in a 

 piscatorial, not a pugilistic sense — has 

 appeared in our old friend Morris Gold- 

 enson. At Newport pier he landed a 

 31-pound halibut, said to be the largest 

 of its kind ever taken from southern 

 California waters. 



Charles Winsel is improving his Mon- 

 tebello land and has it practically all 

 planted. A new veranda is to be built 

 around the dwelling house, and fine bay, 

 box and other specimen plants will be 

 introduced. 



A. F. Borden cleared out from his 

 Third street address June 29 and is 

 back in his old quarters with the Ke- 

 dondo Floral Co. He was recently pass- 

 ing the cigars around, the occasion be- 

 ing the arrival of his fourth daughter. 



J. W. Wolters has an immense and 

 varied stock of baskets and other choice 

 wares, which have just arrived. 



S. Murata has some of the finest En- 

 chantress carnations in the market. He 

 reports business as good for the season. 



Owing to street improvements, the 

 Figueroa Nursery was obliged to dis- 

 pose of some of its land, and the part- 

 nership existing between Messrs. Zaima 

 and Uyematsu has been dissolved. Mr. 

 Zaima remains at Figueroa street and 

 Mr. Uyematsu has purchased five acres 

 of land and a house at Montebello. One 

 and a half acres of this he will cover 

 with a lath house and he will event- 

 ually build some glass. Cut flowers and 

 greens will be the principal crops 

 grown.
