This growth prevents the seeds from coming up, or, if they have come up, it makes them damp off. C. N.—Gal. This trouble may be caused by insuf- ficient light, or by too much water, or by a combination of the two. Try removing the moss or fungus from the surface of the soil and then dusting the soil with air-slaked lime. It is possible, however, that the boxes are decaying and that the fungus may be propagated in the decayed wood. As a preventive for such a condition it is well to give the interior of the trays or boxes a good coat of whitewash before sowing the seeds. W. H. T. LOS ANGELES. The Market. The retailers all over the city have been simply swamped during the week with funeral work. On every other cor- ner one met someone delivering funeral pieces. Stock has become more plenti- ful with the addition of several varie- ties of bulbous flowers, including gla- dioli. The few daffodils now on the mar- ket make little showing, but by the time these lines appear they will be coming in more freely. Eoses are still on the short side and both the quantity and quality of carnations leave much to be desired. The greenhouse-grown stock now selling at $6 and $8 per hundred is not so good as some of the field-grown stock of other seasons. Recent showers and warmer temperatures at night may work an improvement in them. There is little change in the greens situation, but plumosus is improving in quality daily. Various Notes.
