 week. 



WoKTd eomes from Ukiah, Cal., of the 

 death of J. S. Thomason, who was 

 well icnown among Pacific coast nur- 

 serym- «n. He was 65 years of age and 

 had t»een in the retail trade on this 

 coast for over twenty years.

The Market. 



Wifch the Easter rush a few days 

 ahead, of us, everything is being ar- 

 range <3 in preparatory work. A few 

 week^ of sunshine has put the stock in 

 fine ^hape. Lilies came out wonder- 

 fully. The outlook several weeks ago 

 was discouraging. All other stock is 

 in ae cordance. Spiraeas, azaleas, rho- 

 doderM. drons, ramblers and hydrangeas 

 are aTbout the variety of plants offered. 

 Eose» and carnations are coming in 

 with a big cut. Lily of the valley, vio- 

 lets aB-nd all varieties of spring flowers 

 are in profusion. Outdoor stock of 

 bulbo us flowers is rapidly being forced 

 out. Trees and shrubs are putting out 

 buds on all sides. Green is a scarce 

 comn»-Odity, almost impossible to get 

 locally. 



Various Notes. 



Wnn. Martin and family have re- 

 turne d fronx an extended trip to Cali- 

 f orni «i. 



Louais Scott, representing Pacific Pot- 

 tery Co., has been out calling on the 

 trad& through the northern part of the 

 state — 



Th^ regular meeting of the Florists' 

 Club "was held March 10. The regular 

 busia-css was preceded by boxing and 

 wrestling matches. Several of the trade 

 took 3)art in. the bouts and are aspirants 

 to th. « semi-professional class. 



A. Kakuda, representing the Yoko- 

 hama, Nursery Co., was a week-end 

 calleiT. He reports trade satisfactory. 



Th^ usual street fakers and small 

 stores are in evidence. They disap- 

 pear when the summer comes. 



6e orge Robinson has given up the 

 lease <3 range of George Betz and, with 

 his family, has left the city.

NsK,ture of Doubling in Carnations. 



[Oontlnned from pave 12.] 



Wtiile it lias not as yet been possible 

 to m ake an especially careful study of 

 the maature of doubling in the carna- 

 tion, sufficient information has been de- 

 riveci- from an examination of several 

 hund-Ted flowers to enable us to say 

 that many factors contribute toward 

 doubling. The simpler and more com- 

 mon ones are those of the multiplica- 

 tion _ of petals, by proliferation, the con- 

 versi on of stamens into petals, and the 

 development of supernumerary buds in- 

 side "the flower but outside the ovary. 



Tli.« presence of supernumerary or 

 adveontitious buds seems to imply a 

 tendency of the flowers in which they 

 occuar to advert to the bullhead type 

 of flcDwer. It is certain that their pres- 

 ence in the flower is accountable for 

 man>^ a bursted calyx, and in such in- 

 stancies it may be necessary for us to

 Is it moving as it should ? 

 No? 



Then tell the trade about 

 it by using the Pacific Coast 

 Pages of The Review. 



Pacific Coast advertisers al- 

 most invariably report good 

 results. Like this: 



We want to say that our last advertisement ia 

 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 reialti obtained 

 by advertising In the Pacific Coast Department of
