The dry season did not injure nursery stock in the least, as most of the stock was strong and robust and able to stand any sort of weather, but it did hamper dig- ging and shipping.

Much more rain is needed before winter. Chrysanthemums, roses and carnations are plentiful. Some good dahlias have made their appearance in some of the local gardens. Cool weather and a light frost followed the rain, the first killing frost of the season in this locality. Spring bulbs are coming into the market and they seem to be of good quality. Various Notes.
