Shipping fell off sud- denly for some reason after Easter and has not picked up since. The warmer weather has brought along stock of all kinds rapidly. Good Spanish irises, I. tingtiana and tulips cleaned up fairly well, but outside of these there was little doing in bulbous stock.

Wilcox Co. and from now on will concentrate all of his energies on his home place. H. E. Jaeger, of the Orchid, at Pasa- dena, has been dangerously ill with the "flu," also his wife and children, but all are now well .along the road to re- coverv. George J. Hall has just returned from
