BAMBOOS 
Of late years the Bamboos have been receiving quite 
a lot of attention from the Californians who are interested 
in the horticultural development of their State. There 
are great possibilities in Bamboo culture; the Bamboo 
pole is useful for many purposes, and there are many 
places in this State where it can be grown successfully and 
profitably. The San Joaquin Valley, where there is 
irrigation, would be a good locality for its culture; it 
needs lots of water, but it must have good drainage.

50c each.

38 feet. The canes are used extensively for furniture work, 
water-pipes, etc. Clumps, 50c each.

black, used for making walking sticks, umbrella handles, etc.

CALIFORNIA NATIVE TREES 
Under this caption will be found trees indigenous to this 
State. We advocate strongly the systematic planting of 
these, so that they be not lost to future generations, as 
will undoubtedly be the case if some radical change be 
not effected in forest preservation and forest planting. 
Why there should be in this country such a lax method 
of caring for our forests is a wonder to us. In no other 
country are such methods permitted. As individuals, 
therefore, it behooves us that we do our very utmost 
toward reforesting. We head the list with the world 
famous
