The afternoon passed pleasantly and most of the picnickers stayed until the 7:30 train. .Various Notes. The California Dahlia Growers' Asso- ciation now is counting on making its show next month the finest dahlia ex- hibition ever held on the coast. Ar- rangements are nearly complete and more than enough exhibits to fill the hall have been offered, the stock being, according to present promise, exception- ally fine.

It is desired to encourage the produc- tion of new seedlings and, accordingly, while only 3-year-old seedlings are given official recognition, a cup is being offered for the best collection of 1916 seedlings.

Well known va- rieties are well received and some of the more showy new varieties are get- ting a great deal of inquiry. Pelicano, Rossi & Co. are featuring a magnificent cut of dahlias grown on F. Pelicano's place. Burgle, Delice, Kit- tlewell and Van den Daele are among the most conspicuous, but some of the new seedlings shown at the exposition last year are making a fine showing. The San Francisco Floral Co. opened a wholesale store several weeks ago at 431 Bush street. The Hallawell Seed Co., handling see
