SEEDSMEN CHICAGO OF 00(iT«NT»~r*«»« TWO AND TMRKk ^ 11 The Florists^ Review OiH'OBEU 2, I'Jl!). reenhouse ^uilde Why this Layout at Logansport, Indiana Is an Ideal One Kor twenty-tive years, this plan has been an ideal one. Ideal, because then, as now, it suc- cessfully combined three things. It gives three separate greenhouses, making possible a wide growing assortment, besides having the small connecting house for propaga- tion, growing ferns or a few orchids. The heating plant being centrally located, the distribution is equal in each direction, which you well know spells economy. I The higher roof of the center house, with wings of equal size on either side, gives a highly attractive, finely balanced effect. Having built so many of them, we can turn one out for you without the usual delays necessary in making special plans and doing special work. Let us give you a price on an exact duplicate of this greenhouse. Qrd.& nham^. Builders of Greenhouses and Conservatories SALES OFFICKS: IRVINGTON Xcw York CHICAGO Continental Hank Bldg.

COOK NEW ROSES .i?r 1Q20 "T "X TE offer to you for 1920 these new Roses, which are % /% / not only new, but, we believe, better. They are Y^J^--*ot only distinct from each other, but are also ^^— '"'' distinct from any other varieties now in com- merce. To the Montgomery Company, who raised Mrs. Charles Russell and Hadley, must go the credit for Crusader and Pilgrim. To the old rose veteran, John Cook, goes the honor of having raised the seedhngwhich he has chosen to name Mrs. John Cook. All these Roses are growing in large quantities in Cromwell, and from Cromwell we shall disseminate these sterling novelties. We invite you here to see them. CRUSADER. (Montgomery.) A big, strong-lowing variety, robust and rugged in every characteristic. The growth is heavy and the flower stems are strong and heavy, producing very little blind wood. It is free growing and free flowering, and the blooms are truly characteristic of the variety — big and double, and, in color, a rich, velvety crimson. These large, heavily petaled blooms open perfectly and are amply supported by the strong-necked, heavy flower growths. Crusader takes water well and will keep under almost any conditions. The plant is free from canker and does not show any tendency to die at the union of scion and stock. It breaks freely from the hard wood and is a strong- growing, free-flowering red Rose. PILGRIM. (Montgomery.) In color, a beautiful shade of bright rose-pink. The bud, wnich opens perfectly, is long and of ideal form. Pilgrim is a Rose of good substance and petalage, and at any stage of development is perfect in color and form of flower. Its pronounced tea fragrance will attract all rose lovers. It is prolific and highly productive of first quality blooms. The stems are straight and strong, and there is no tendency to weaken at the neck. It takes water freely, and this quality makes it a good Rose for the store man, as it will keep when cut and retain its color and fragrance. It is a wonderful grower, prop- agates easily, grafts nicely, grows freely, and throws strong bottom canes early, making heavy, profitable plants on the bench m a very short time. It makes little blind wood and is comparatively free from disease, resisting black-sp>ot and mildew to a great extent. It is the pink Rose to grow. MRS. JOHN COOK. (John Cook.) White, sufl"used with delicate pink, describes the color of this strong-growing, big-flowered daughter of Ophelia. The color varies with the season, the flush of pink being more pronounced during cool weather, while the Rose is almost white during the long days of Bright sunshine. In bud it is nicely formed, the mature flower opening cup-shaped but expanding fully to a large and finely-formed bloom. It is a strong-growing plant on the bench, comes away quickly, and the growths are strong, making a big plant which is very prolific. To the grower who needs a white Rose, who can overlook a flush of pink, and who fails with Double White Killarney, this new Rose will prove a boon. To the grower who grows White Killarney well, Mrs. John Cook may also be welcome. It is bigger and better in sum- mer, and, with its delicate pink in dark weather, is a very charming color. A. N.

WERTHEIMER BROTHERS THE NATIONAL FLORAL RIBBON HOUSE Owners and Operators of WERBRO RIBBON MFG. CO., Paterson. N. J. Office and Salesrooip, 19-25 fast 24th Street, NEW YORK WHY NOT PRACTICE WHAT YOU PREACH? While the S. A. F. is spending a proposed sum of ^100,000 in magasines and individual florists ar^ spending an aggregate of many times that amount, all to tell the public to "Say It with Flowers," the same gospel may be spread effectively by force of example. w-^r% HEN the trade spends its money to exhort the public to "Say It with Flow- ers, ' ' the message in those four >,ords is not limited to their literal meaning. Surely, we advise the younger generation to ex- press its affection on Mothers' day by sendidg mother flowers, we counsel the suitor and husband to hold the esteem of their fair ones by sending them occasional boxes of blooms, we maintain that the spirit of the year's chief holidays is best conveyed by flowers, and we believe tnat sympatny for a bereaved family is shown most fittingly by floral remem- brances. But "Say It with Flowers" means much more also. It means not only that flowers are the finest conveyors of sentiment, but that they are also the surest visible sign of beauty and aesthetic appreciation in the home and in the community. And not only flow- ers, but also plants, shrubs, trees, win- dow-boxes, gardens, home grounds — the whole range of floricultural possi- bilities is suggested to the public by the simply wotded phrase, "Say It with Flowers." We could not confine the meaning of the slogan to the flowers sold as merchandise, even if we would. AU to Florist's Gain. And the florist reaps a benefit from the other implications of the phrase, for he is called upon to supply the plants for the window-boxes and gardens, and if he carries seeds and nursery stock, he gains a profit from them at planting time. Pot plants and bedding plants are increasingly important in his sales. There is, then, ample reason for thp^ florist to boost all these forms of hor- ticulture. And there is the more rea- son since his sales of flowers will grow in pace with the public's appreciation of all forms of floral beauty. The home garden is not a competitor of the florist; it is an aid to him. If he loses at all in the summer time, because the house- wife obtains the blooms for her table from her own yard, he gains in the win- ter, when the same housewife, who has become accustomed to having flowers on the dining table and about the house, comes to purchase them of him. The greatest advantage will come to the florist from the public's habit of seeing and enjoying flowers and plants about them 80 much that they come to feel the necessity of having them as a matter of course. That is the end to which the trade's advertising works. Means to tlie End. As means of bringing about that re- sult there are ways besides printed ad- vertising. In addition to telling the public what to do, the florist has the opportunity of showing the public how to do it. To the power of argument he can add the force of example. In other words, he can gain much by practicing what he preaches. He can "Say It with Flowers" himself as well as he can say it with print. Most florists now do this to a greater or less extent. What is desired is that they all, not some, do it to a greater extent. Flower boxes adorn the fronts of many stores; boxwoods and ever- greens in tubs often grace the entrance or decorate the sidewalk. It goes with- out saying that the window should be arranged as attractively as possible, for if ever flowers can talk, here they should be made to say, "Buy Me!" to the passers-by. The store interiors are decorated with plants and flowers as pleasingly as can be by florists who are leaders in their profession. The whole atmosphere of a flower store should con- vey the possibilities of the enjoyment of flowers. Where the location permits, much use " can be made of adjoining grounds by the florist. No such space is, of course, available to the owner of a shop in a crowded shopping center. But, compar- atively speaking, these are few, and thousands of florists have from a few feet to an entire lot of vacant property where they now have plantings or might have them. What J. W. Briggs, of the Briggs Floral Co., at Moorhead, Minn., did on the plot illustrated below is just one example of what hundreds of others have done towards showing the folks ia their towns how to ' ' Say It with Flow- ers." Mr. Briggs took advantage of a tract that formed the Northern Pacific railroad's right of way. "He had amplei space thereon to construct a little park next to his store. Trees, shrubs, urns and a fountain make a splendid form of advertising for the store. And the work was not much in comparison with the returns. Traffic Post Flower Box. To this more usual method of helping the townsfolk to a fuller appreciation and use of plants and shrubs, Mr. Briggs added one novel idea of his own. This may be seen in the illustration. It is the flower box that surmounts the traflBc post on the corner. Every one of the concrete traflic posts in the town of Moorhead is equipped with a self watering flower box, in all of which the plants grow well. The bpx is built to fit snugly on the top of the post, slipping Flower Boxes en the Tralfic Posts and a Park on the Railroad Right of Vay are Two Methods. 14 The Florists^ Review OCTOBKE 2, 1919. down two inches, enough to hold it in place firmly. FaU Is Planting Season. If a florist contemplates undertaking such a form of advertising aa planting a plot of available ground, the au- tumn is the time for putting in a good deal of the material which he will em- ploy. Trees, shrubs and hardy plants are many of them best set in now or a little later in autumn. If he wishes patches of peonies or irisesj this is the time to get the clumps. And while the florist is doing this work for himself, he should not forget there are a good many orders for such planting that may be se- cured from his customers. To "Say It with Flowers ' ' and do it with flowers is the surest way to encourage the public to say and do it in the same manner. ffljjiii^i*A^iiyaujiiiu.'iti^jiLuji*>y.^ik^^ TATE'S TIPS ^'flfe^^;flfe^^l»;^:- .. .; The Btilletin.

Albert Pochelon and his associate boosters of the F. T. D. have spread the name of the organization beyond the bor- ders of this country and given it inter- national prestige. With it has gone fame for the slogan of the S. A. F. In the Evening Times of Glasgow, Scot- land, for September 1 appeared the fol- lowing: "SATT IT WITH FIX>WERS."

The association's motto is "Say It with Flowers." Scotland's only representative Is Wm. Lelghton, Renfield street, who lately received a commission for over 500 wreaths to be laid upon the graves of American soldiers in this country. As they say in Kansas City, ' ' do you know" that the Alpha Floral Co. is a big billboard advertiser and that its elegant store downtown is a beehive of business?

The Murray store has, in the language of a visitor, ' ' the dig- nity of simplicity," rich in foliage plants, partly supplied from the green- houses under the care of Colonel Sharp, who has also a fine house of cattleyas and Begonia Melior. One house is filled with Exacum affina, a pretty, blue-flow- ering annual, first received from the MacBorie-McLaren Co., San Francisco, Cal. It is of shrubby habit, free-flower- ing, fragrant and easily grown from seed. Mr. Murray says it sells at sight. In borders leading to the houses.

The famed grapevines have given place to nectarines, which create a sensation when, loaded with luscious fruit, they adorn the store window. • • » •• "Do you know," observed W. L. Rock, of the W. L. Rock Flower Co., Kansas City, "that when I was in Min- nesota recently, I found that the fame of our duck window had reached so far?" A feature of it is a .flock of finches that fly around. The birds seem to appreciate the situation, for a pair of goldfinches have nested in full view of the public, and, while they are not so clever as Poll Tweedlepipe 's bullfinch, they certainly are a drawing card. Re- luctantly 4he scene must be changed to prepare for the debut of the queen of autumn. The advance shipment of Chrysolora from California was not up to expectations. Attention was called to a grand lot of gladioli from Holm & Olson, St. Paul, considered the finest seen in town this season. » ♦ » » R. S.

Believe me, we are watching the course of the trade stream closely and have our launch fed with the best material." Illustrative of the up- to-date system followed here is the use of the graphotype and addressograph to save time in the office. Design work is done on the second floor. A blanket composed of cattleyas and valley, one of several pieces for the obsequies of a prominent local patron, was especially beautiful. The best of flowers are shipped from Chicago. Some fine Chrys- olora chrysanthemums, cattleyas and roses, first-class stock, were seen.

OcTOBKR 2, l!>l!t. The Florists^ Review 21 QUESTIONS ON POMPONS. I wish to ask you a few questions about pompon chrysanthemums. What do you consider ,the best planting dis- tance in the bench? "What is the cause of a branch failing to "break" after being -pinched back in July? I have one variety which acts this way. What are the best red pompons? State sea- sons and types. Would Seven Oaks produce a second crop of flowers if the clumps were left in the bench and fertilizer applied? I have had fine pots of it in bloom at Easter, with twenty-five to thirty blooms to a 5-inch pot. As pompons are sold by the bunch wholesale, how many individual flowers constitute a bunch? A. H. S.— N. Y. We plant our pompons 10x12, as early in May as we can get them in. When they begin to grow nicely they are benched and the resulting shoots, whether three, five or seven, are all al- lowed to grow. At the present time our pompons are from two to four feet high, according to the varieties, and are a beautiful sight. We have for some years considered these more profitable to grow than the large-flowering chrys- anthemums. As to what is the cause of the branches failing to break after being pinched back, I really could not say un- less I had more definite information. I have never heard of such a thing, un- less the plant was kept too dry and got hard, when naturally there would not be so much growth, but, as I understand it, the plants did not grow at all after being pinched. Such a condition as this I have never heard of before; there may be some conditions you have not explained to me. Seven Oaks will produce a second and third crop of flowers if the clumps are left in the bench and fed and watered. Whether the bench room could not be more profitably used for some other purpose, you would know better than I do, but personally I think it could. How many individual flowers of pom- pons constitute a bunch is a question that cannot be answered definitely. Some growers put six stems, some eight and some twelve stems in a bunch. There seems to be no fixed number in the New York market. Growers arrange their flowers more or less by the appear- ance of the bunches. Individual shoots may run from three to twenty flowers, according to how much or how little they have been disbudded, so that, as previously stated, it is hard to say just how many should be put in a bunch. Our own pompons are grown in such a way as to make the first natural break in July. ^A single shoot breaks out into / four or five shoots and these are per- ( mitted to stay, so that a spray with four shoots will contain anywhere from thirty to fifty individual flowers. As to the best red pompon, there is nothing better than Julia Lagravere, one of the earliest introduced, in its color, which is a brilliant crimson. Lelia, a scarlet bronze, is quite hand- some and one of the tallest in this sec- tion. There are several other good bronzes of the bronze-red type, such as Urith, Tiber and Mrs. Frank Wilcox, sometimes known as Mrs. Beu. This lat- ter is the reddish-orange variety so largely grown for Thanksgiving work. Chas. H. Totty. between these leaves." It is suggested that Black-Leaf 40, s])rayed as directed over the jdants, will make it so un- ])U'iiHaut for the insect that it will not deposit its eggs tliere. Once the pest starts growing there is no method ex- cei)t hand-picking that will destroy it, as anything that is strong enough to kill tiie i)est will also kill the plant. Some seasons it is much worse than others and is more liable to be where celery is grown than in any other sec- tion. D. F. C. will possibly know whether or not celery was the cause of it in his section. C. H. Totty. LEAF-MINER ON MUMS. We are having considerable trouble on our 'chrysanthemums with a black spot. These spots are caused by a small worm, which works on the inside of the leaf. This is nothing new' to us, as we have always had this trouble more or less on certain varieties, but before carefully picking them off a couple times seemed to end the trouble. Can you give us an idea as to where these worms come from and as to the best method of getting rid of them? D. F. C— la. GETTING LATE MtJMS. I have just planted some chrysanthe- mums, Turner, Sedgwick, Mistletoe, Garnet Gem and Josephine Foley. They are six inches high and some are throw- ing buds. Cap I take the tops out at this time? I want them late; I also want some stem on them. J. T. T.— 111. The small worm working inside the leaf I have always considered to be the same thing as the leaf-miner in the celery, Tephritis onopordinis. Hand- picking is, of course, the best method of eradicating these pests. This is the l,arva of the dirty-colored butterfly that comes out in the spring. If the butter- fly can be killed before it lays the eggs it will be much easier to kill it than to kill the larva; later. This larva works between the two skins or upper and lower layers of the leaf and eats the chlorophyl or coloring matter out If the buds that are now showing are terminal buds, it is not much use to cut them off, as the terminal is the "termi- nus" or finish of growth and if these are removed the plant will not make , any further growth. Plants set out six inches high were most probably allowed to get too dry and pot-bound; theii the wood hardened and the plants ran into bud in conse- quence. To )get late flowers success- fully, cuttings must be struck late in July if possible, and then should be kept soft-growing as long as possible. If the central bud has growth shoots around it, pinch the central bud out and carry up one or more of the growth shoots until they in turn produce other buds. As- the season will then be far advanced, they will naturally be the terminal buds. However, I am inclined to think that J. T. T. 's plants have reached their limit of growth for this season. C. H.

The thirty-tiiird annual convention of the Association of American Cemetery Superintemlents, held at Cincinnati September 24 to 26, drew a large and enthusiastic gathering. The association lias a membership of 278. Twenty-nine new members were enrolled at this meeting. Thirty-three years ago William Sal- way, superintendent of Spring Grove cemetery, Cincinnati, and the late Chas. NichoUs, of Newark, N. J., conceived the idea of getting up a national as- sociation of cemetery superintendents, with the view of promoting mutual and progressive improvement in cemetery management and affairs, especially in the matter of getting away from the old graveyard style and into the more modern and approved system now adopted throughout the country. Their efforts met with quick response. The present association was immediately formed, and its first meeting was held in Cincinnati in 1887. The tenth meet- ing was held in Cincinnati, and this year the association held the third meeting in the place of its birth, with the veteran William Salway still at Spring Grove cemetery and the most active and interested member in the promotion and management of the gathering. From the first the Canadian ceme- teries have joined heartily with the American ones in the association, but so far none of the conventions has been held in a Canadian city. Next year, however, the convention is to b'e held at Hamilton, Ont., with one day at To- ronto. Officers Elected. The officers for the ensuing year are: President, Henry S. Adams, superin- tendent Forest Hills cemetery, Boston; vice-president. Major F. H. Kutherford, superintendent Hamilton cemeteries, Hamilton, Ont., and secretary-treasurer. JL. ■ 22 The Florists' Review October 2, 1919. W. B. Jones, superintendent Highwood cemetery, Pittsburgh, Pa. z-^"^- At the meetings papery fvere read by leading members on pertinent and vital subjects pertaining to cemetery man- agement and decoration and later were discussed. Illustrated lectures were given on the construction and mainte- nance of roads, on the preservation and encouragement of useful birds and wild animals and the most successful meth- ods of destroying insect pests that are injurious to trees and other vegetation. Local Cemeteries Visited. The local cemeteries of Cincinnati and the neighboring ones of Kentucky were-visited and much information in practical details gleaned from them. It ■ is in these visits that the members of the association can see and compare methods of procedure in the manage- ment of cemeteries, obtain suggestions of how to improve on present ways of doing work at home, get hints on labor- saving devices, find out what are the best kinds of trees, shrubs, vines and other plants to use and how to plant and arrange them most appropriately and effectively in their own grounds. It was late in the season to see trees and shrubs in good condition, for they had begun to defoliate. Besid,es, they have passed through the ravages of the 17-year locusts^nd have suffered from a severe drpuglit.' Among the best seen, however, seemed to be the oaks, cucum- ber tree, Norway maple, ginkgo, sweet gum, white birch, linden, tulip tree, Chinese varnish tree, native ash and beech. Among shrubs in bloom Desmodium penduliflorum was fine; so too were the chaste shrub (vitex) and buddleias. In the way of ornamental berried shrubs a large number were in showy fruit; namely, the white snowberry, high-bush cranberry and its relative. Viburnum dilatatum; rugosa roses, several haws (Crataegus) and, brighter and fuller than anything else, the common dog- wood, laden with coral-red fruit — what the birds had left. At Spring Grove Cemetery. Some rockery effects at Spring Grove were beautiful. Over the rocks and clinging to them were the creeping evonymus, European ivy and the min- iature form of the Boston ivy (ampe- lopsis) ; between the stones were creep- ing phlox, bushes of Japanese yew, yuccas, dwarf junipers and the like, with a host of hardy flowering plants^ giving blossoms all the summer through. European ivy, creeping evonymus, Japanese spurge (i)achysandra) and lily of the valley carpeted nooks planted with evergreens; in fact, one of the most beautiful tracts of this kind was lined in front with a belt of the purple drooping lantana (tender) in full bloom. Prostrate or spreading rose bushes, as Wichuariana, Crimson Rambler, Lady Gay and Dorothy Perkins, were freely yiised; of course, these were not then in ' bloom, but in their mass of fresh, glossy foliage they were quite pretty. A long and wide border was bril- liantly colored with a host of hardy plants, such as small -flowered sunflow- ers, crimson sedum, chelone, physos- tegia, second-crop delphiniums, late phloxes, white eupatorium, Japanese anemones, the better goldenrods, pur- ple and pink New England asters, and others; and for brightness' sake, to these was added a great amount of fill- ing in the way of scarlet salvia, celosias, cosmos, petunias, marigolds, etc. William Falconer. MAYWOOD, ILL. Beady and Confident. Maywood, one of the chief growing centers for the Chicago market — the stock all is sold in the commission houses there — is ready for winter, con- fident that it will be one of the best the growers ever have had. To one who has known Maywood, cer- tain changes are of more than momen- tary interest. In the first place, the carnation has disappeared. There are three or four smaller places which may still grow a few carnations, but the big ranges grow roses; there are two grow- ers whose crops are mums and peas, but the average visitor will get the impres- sion that rose production must have proved itself the really profitable end of the business. The passing of certain old favorites also is sure to strike those who knew the place in other years. Maywood once was famous for its Beauties, but now there isn't a Beauty plant in the town. Nor can one find Killarney or Killarney Brilliant. Richmond, too, is gone, and with it Ward and Sunburst. There are only two places that have any red and only one that has white, about five per cent of its total planting. Not only has Maywood become a rose cen- ter, but its rose factories produce prac- tically nothing but pink. It is worth thinking about. Albert F. Amling Co. As Mohammed would not come to the mountain, the mountain went to Mo- hammed— and the A. F. Amling Co., this summer, went to the railroad. It was accomplished by buying the land between the greenhouses and the Soo Line and the construction of a spur nearly half a mile in length. It was finished in time to make possible the unloading of this season 's fuel from the cars direct to the boiler room. The improvement cost $20,000, but the cart- age bill has been several times $1,200 a year. Albert Amling, founder and presi- dent, gives most of his time nowadays to the affairs of the Maywood and Mel- rose Park banks, of which he is vice- president, leaving the greenhouse man- agement to his second son. Otto Amling. The latter gives this as the season's planting list: Mrs. Kusspll 70.000 plants Oi>)i«-lin .5(»,OnO plants Columbia 35,000 plants Premier 20.000 plants White Killarney 13.000 plants Milad.v 11.000 plants Misoellaneous 15,000 plants Total 214,000 plants Consider, please, that the records show eighteen flowers per plant for Russell, twenty-s«ven flowers average for the other old favorites and thirty- five for white because not pinched. Thus it can be figured that, if Premier does only as well as the others, here are in sight '.5,306,000 roses for the Chicago market this year! A new Randall cooling room was put in this summer, also a Kroeschell ice machine. There are a number of other new things on the place. One of them is a visitors' register; the first name in it is that. of A. L. Vaughan. Another novelty is six mallard ducks, said to be fond of sow bugs and adept at catching grasshoppers. Also, out in front Otto Amling is remodeling the old family residence, built in 1889, making of its sturdy timbers a handsome modern home. Weiss & Meyer Co. The only Maywood grower to add new glass this season was the Weiss & Meyer Co. A pipe-frame house was built, 36x375, containing seven 42-inch benches, a new idea. The new house caHed for a new brick stack, 5x125, which is something of a landmark. The glass exposure at this place is almost exactly 101,000 square feet. The space is given to the four roses most popular in the Chicago market. "What are they?" Why, everybody ought to know that by now. They are Columbia, Russell, Premier and Ophelia, although it still is unsettled as to the sequence of the first three. There are 20,000 Premier here and of course you will note that two of these roses are of Hill raising, while a third was brought from England by Mr. Hill. The stock, ex- cept for Premier, is all from one to four years on the benches. It is in fine shape and a large part of it is being timed for Christmas. One point is worth noting: Henry Meyer does not care for tankage, used in large quanti- ties by other Maywood growers; he hustles to get cow manure, Weiss-Spandlkow Co. Maywood boasts one new concern this season, the Weiss-Spandikow Co., or- ganized by the interests associated with the Weiss & Meyer Co. and the E. C. Amling Co. The first rose was cut September 26. The new range is on the north edge of the Maywood greenhouse colony, adjoining the Soo Line tracks. There is a big brick service building, four iron-frame houses each 36x400 and, off to the south, open ground in- viting the early addition of about eight more such houses. They are costing now about $10,000 apiece. In the serv- ice building are two Sterling water- tube boilers and a double set of vacuum and water pumps. The water is raised from 265 feet under ground, a 4-inch stream, by compressed air. In the houses are two roses only. Premier and Milady. Wm. Spandikow made a rec- ord with Milady while grower for Frank Schramm, at Crystal Lake, tak- ing over $3 per plant in the ten months, July 1, 1918, to May 1, 1919, and, when he took charge for the com- pany in which his name appears he benched as many Milady as he could find plants. Both varieties have made good progress, in spite of being benched before the houses were finished, and some splendid roses are expected from this place this season and especially next year, after the plants attain size and strength. W. H. Amling 's Sons. Walter Amling, oldest son of the late Wm. H. Amling, is a comparatively joung man, but one of many interests, .^specially since he started the big proj- ect at Pana, 111. Consequently he has turned his place over to the active management of his younger brother, Martin, and occupies his time with gen- eral supervision of the family affairs. Martin Amling was in Ohio last week, on a vacation made possible by the re- turn of August Frega from his errand October 2, 1919, The Florists^ Review 23 overseas. Mr. Frega spent nine months in France with the Twenty-sixth Divi- sion and is glad to be back among the Columbias and Killarneys, the two va- rieties with which the place is stocked. There are many excellent Columbias in Maywood, but none better than these, possibly none quite so good. Herbert Amling, another son, is in charge of the W. H. Amling home place, which is all in chrysanthemums except for a couple of benches of Freesia Purity. The cutting of Golden Glow began last week, the shipments being divided between the Chicago Flower Growers' Association, Zech & Mann and the Joseph Foerster Co., Chi- cago commission houses. The Glows are fine and there will be a heavy cut for a fortnight, after which there will be quite a hiatus before the later va- rieties and the pompons are ready. Sweet peas will follow the mums. Ernst C. Amling. Ernst C. Amling, who is the oldest son of Albert F. Amling, still has only Eussell and Ophelia in his Maywood range. For him these two varieties turn in the money with the steadiness of an automatic machine. Ernst Am- ling was one of the first of "the May- wood bunch" to appreciate that the title of trade affairs had turned, so it was early last winter that he began planning expansion. Concluding that it was better to buy than to build, with his brother, Paul, he purchased the Hoerber Bros. Co., thereby getting a range of twenty-one well maintained and fully stocked houses at Des Plaines. Two of these houses are in miscellane- ous crops, all the rest in roses. Paul Amling is the resident manager there, but Ernst has bought a Ford sedan, im- pervious to weather, and makes an al- most daily trip across country from Maywood to Des Plaines. Sweet Teas in September! Did you ever see sweet peas bloom- ing under glass in September? You have if you visited the establishment of Henry Wehrman in the closing days of the month. The pick will not be important in a selling way until about October 15, but there will be no part of this season that violets will be with- out competition from sweet peas in the Chicago market. Mr. Wehrman has his two newest and largest houses planted to peas just coming into bloom, with the promise of a fine winter crop if weather conditions are such that he can keep the buds from falling. All the rest of his 30,000 feet of glass is in chrysanthemums, to be followed by ])eas. He has a promising young right- hand man in Arnold J. Wieck. There are several smaller places in Maywood, but unless one starts early in the day he will be able to see noth- ing of them except the glint of their roofs in the sun. into good condition, following much loss of stock last spring when the city pumped mineral water into the mains. It now has its own supply, using a large cistern and pressure tank with an elec- tric pump. A bed of scabiosa in vari- ous colors outside was furnishing good flowers when stock was scarce. Young Mr. Estill is glad to be back at work again after seeing active service in France. Mr. and Mrs. A. Thieman, Moberly, Mo., who have been growing lettuce for several years, are anxious to get into flowers. Their son, Eobert, is getting experience in the Chicago district, ex- pecting to return prepared to carry on the growing. At Mexico, Mo., C. C. Wonneman's greenhouses are well located, a few blocks from the square. In front are his home and a small park, beautifully planted and well kept. Roses and car- nations were in good shape. A number of excellent Boston ferns in 10-inch pots were noted. Mr. Wonneman has many years of successful business to his credit, and his two sons are likely to carry on the family tradition. Mrs. Susie Foreman, at Louisiana, Mo., has worked hard for many years conducting the business since the un- fortunate death of her husband. A nephew is becoming of some assistance and it is hoped that he will learn the trade and take care of the growing. At Hannibal, Mo., Miss Nettie League is administratrix of the estate of her brother, W. T. League. She is endeav- pringjto sell the business and settle the Griffen's Flower Shop, Hannibal, Mo., has made rapid progress since its establishment four years ago. For many years previous to that time its present proprietors had been growers of greenhouse vegetables. They now have two large storerooms in use in the middle of the downtown business dis- trict. In one is an up-to-date store for retail selling and in the other is the well equipped designing department. The greenhouses are well located on a railroad just outside the city. Every- thing needed is grown except roses, which come from Chicago. A large line of pot plants is grown f6r the retail trade. One new house, 36x100, is being built. A trial of growing young stock for the wholesale trade was so success- ful as to lead to preparations for great- er business along this line. V. G. TORONTO, ONT. NORTHEASTERN MISSOURI. The Columbia Floral Co., Columbia, Mo., is a comparatively new establish- ment, but they already have a large range. Plenty of good soil and expert management of the greenhouses under J. W. Bernard are helping toward suc- cess. This firm has a large trade in cut flowers. The Missouri State Uni- versity draws- a large number of flower buyers into town. .At Moberly, Mo., the Estill Floral Co. is getting its stock and equipment back Hamilton Association Formed. A large number motored from this city to Hamilton to assist in the forma- tion of a gardeners' and florists' asso- ciation there. Thoy were joined by a largo number from Oakville and, with the large contingents from Hamilton, Dundas, Stony Creek andl Burlington, there was a splendid gathering in the hall. The chair was occupied by H. G. Dillemuth, president of the Toronto Gardeners' and Florists' Association and of the Toronto Retail Florists' Club. With him on the platform were George Douglas, past president of the Canadian Horticultural Association; George M. Geraghty, president of the Canadian Retail Florists' Association, and Alexander Simpson, secretary of the Toronto Gardeners' and Florists' Association. The visitors were welcomed to Ham- ilton by W. E. Groves, who in a few well chosen words thanked the men who by their presence gave the Hamilton florists sucli encouragement and the ladies who worked so hard to make the first meeting a big success. The chairman then gave an address on the value of organizqJ;ion, after which it was decided to organize under the name of the Hamilton and District Gardeners' and Florists' Association. A constitution was adopted and the fee fixed at $1. F. H. Rutherford was elected presi- dent unanimously, but at the date of the meeting he was absent at a conven- tion in Cincinnati. On his return the florists will wait upon him and tender him the presidency. The further re- sults of the election, were as follows: First vice-president, W. H. Gray, Dun- das; second vice-president, Clarence Price, Hamilton; secretary, J. F. Bruce, of the seed firm of Bruce & Sons, Ham- ilton; treasurer. Miss Dart, of the John Connon Co., Hamilton; executive com- mittee, the above and Mrs. George, Miss McMeekin, Frank B, Smith, H. E. Groves and F. R. Brotherton. Addresses were made by the gentle- men on the platform. Mr. Geraghty said much would be attained by the gardeners and florists getting together and sticking together. He also urged the retail florists to join the Canadian Retail Florists' Association, where their particular problems of the business would be solved. Alexander Simpson indicated the proper procedure for getting the govern- ment grant. All financial and other re- ports must be ready by November. These are to be sent to the Toronto as- sociation, which will see that they reach the deputy-minister of agricul- ture along with the Toronto associa- tion's report. He had taken the mat- ter up with the department, which is anxious to assist in any possible way. Vice-president Gray was called to the chair. After he had thanked the assem- bly for electing him to this ofl[ice, he adjourned the meeting until the call of the executive committee. At the next meeting the permanent date will be set. A musical program was rendered by the Misses Palmer and Hanlan Robin- son. A social hour with an abundance of refreshments was then enjoyed. The meeting closed with cheers for the Ham- ilton florists and the visitors. Retail Florists' Association. The Canadian Retail Florists' Asso- ciation has started its organization work. The executive committee met in Toronto September 24 and another meeting will be called in about ten days, when it is hoped all the members of the executive will be in attendance. The membership fee was set at $5. The lists of members in good standing will be published. The circular letter to be sent out ask- ing florists to join will contain the ob- jects of the association. Among these are that they will strive for standard flowers and for the removal of duty on palms and cut flowers. Committees on membership and pub- licity were provided for; the chairman of each must be a member of the execu- tive committee. The members of the committees will be chosen to represent the different provinces. J. J. H. 24 The Florists^ Review OCTOBEB 2, 1919. Established, 1897. by G. L. GRANT.

It will take an exceptionally good rose td disitlace the present leading varieties on the growers' benches. Gktting out of a hole by putting the other fellow in one is a policy that brings the wrong kind of returns. Careful planning of greenhouse work is a matter of necessity as well as saving in the i)resent lack of labor. » Never was a better opportunity for amjde reward than that of the grower of really first-class cut flowers today. Did it ever occur to you that the j)ros- I)erity of the merchant is, in a way, a guar- anty of the worth of the merchandise? There is not muah likelihood of over- production in this trade so long as labor is as hard to obtain as it is at present. Week after next the F. T. I), will liven up Buffalo with its 2-day meeting, October 14 and 1.5. Hotel reservations should be made now. The Idgher returns of better grown blooms indicate that the added exi)ense of extra fumigation, skilled labor and proper equipment is easily made up. This is tlie largest regular issue of The Keview ever i)rinted. It is thirty- six per cent increase compared with the corresponding issue of 1918.

Delivery Association should reserve their ac- commodations as soon as possible. The headquarters will be the Iroquois hotel. Reservations can be made through S. A. Anderson, chairman of the hotel com- mittee, 440 Main street, Buffalo. The rapid inciease in membership of the F. T. D. during the last year and the fact that the trade is turning out .well at its conventions this season augurs a large gathering at Buffalo. Those who recall the difficulties at De- troit will not delay making reserva- tions for rooms for the F. T. D. meet- ing, j)articularly since word comes of limited accommodations at Buffalo. NOT AN EPIDEMIC. More than 300 cases of influenza were reported to the public health service at Washington last w^eek, by fourteen states, but the disease has not reached the proportions of an epidemic in any state. The service announced that the cases reported generally were of a mild type. GET RID OF ROSE MIDGE. The rose midge seems suddenly to have multiplied to the poiikt where it has be- come a serious matter for many growers, east and west. In The Review of May 20 there was published a report of an investigation by the U. S. Department of Agriculture in which it was stated that "a severe infestation of the rose midge can be controlled, if not entirely eliminated, in a comparatively brief j)e- riod by the careful application of to- bacco dust on the soil and by persistent nightly fumigation with tobacco in the form of stems, nicotine papers, or one of the volatile nicotine extracts. Where earth walks are present it is advisable to spray the walks with a five or ten per cent kerosene emulsion." Any rose grower who does not save his Reviews for reference should send to Washing- ton for a copy of the bulletin on the rose midge. Remember that an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE. A conference was held September 8 in Paris, in the council room of the Societe Xationale d 'Horticulture de France, for the ])urpose of reviving the old, or starting a new, International Horticultural Association, for the pur- nose of maintaining pleasant relations between professional horticulturists in different countries and the considera- tion, and if possible the removal, of dif- ficulties that may arise as between dif- ferent countries. The conference asjreed that an Inter- national Professional Horticultural T'liion be formed and that tlif^ uu'on at present cons'st of France, the I'nited Kinresent Amer- ica has not ex]ires«ed a desire to join, as it waits for further information and is at ]iresent largely cut off from Europe liorticultnrally by its own laws, recent- ly enacted. The ])rogram of the conference was as follows': d) To inquire into the present condi- tions of international horticultural trade. (2) The resumption of trade with (a) neutral countries and ,(b) enemy countries. (."i) The desirability of establishing ])eriodical horticultural conference (a) by the revival o^ the International Hor- ticultural Union and (b) by the crea- tion of a new association. (4) The protection of raisers of new varieties. {')) American quarantine order. (6) Transport troubles. UPKEEP AND DEPRECIATION. Sooner or later the income tax au- thorities probably will get around to auditing the books of every florist. It has been done already in many cases. In almost every instance in which greenhouses are concerned comment is made on the amount charged for annual depreciation, but it is not of record that anything has been said of the sums charged into expense for upkeep. As a matter of fact, almost every flo- rist charges too much for depreciation and does not spend enough for mstinte- nance. Any well built, modern green- house, kept clean, tight and painted, will last twenty-five years or the sal- vage will be considerable. It should be kept clean, tight and painted because in no other condition will it produce to full capacity. The owner does not have to pay income or excess profits taxes on money used year after year to keej) the place in good shape. But there is an absolute limit to what can be charged to depreciation. Four per cent per year is allowed — more in some spe- cial cases — but when the total charges for depreciation have equaled the orig- inal cost of the buildings, then no fur- ther allowance can be claimed. The tax law now has been in opera- tion for six years. It will pay every grower to foot uj) what he has charged for depreciation and for maintenance in that time. OAKS FROM ACORNS. One gets a new conception of the de- mand within the trade this season when he hears the results advertisers get from the Classified offers in The Re- view. In last week 's issue it was re- ported that Peter Reinberg, Chicago, had cleared out a surplus of 39,000 field- grown carnation plants on a Classified advertisement which, in The Review, cost $2. In the preceding issue A. M. Augspurger, sales agent at Peoria, 111., had a considerable number of Classified advertisements, nearly 600 lines. This is what he says of the result: I am extremely busy. Sntiirdny's orders to- taled over .¥3,000 worth of stock and, with orders received today iiiid iirospects wliicli I luii certain will materialize, the returns already amount to almost .$."), 000.

It looks as though the early chrys- anthemums will be quickly cut out, with something of an interval before the sec- ond early varieties are ready. The supply this week is not so large as last week. Pompons have come, earlier than usual. The cuts of carnations are increasing, but they have not increased so rapidly as the supply of asters has gone down. Consequently, both flowers are selling well. There still are considerable num- bers of gladioli, but the end of their season is near. The price has advanced in sympathy with the rest of the mar- ket.

Armstrong, who is doing nicely in his retail store at 2.810 North Clark street, will learn with regret of the death of Mr. Arm- strong's father, Richard R. Armstrong, at Alexian Brothers hospital Septem- ber 24. He had been in that institution since June 12 and his death was a re- lease from great suffering. Paul Richmond, formerly with C. A. Samuelson and W. J. Smyth and well known in the trade in the east, left September 30 for Salt Lake City, where he will take charge of the retail store of the Miller Floral Co., one of the largest and finest in the country. L. R. Bohannon and wife have re- turned from a trip to the Pacific coast which the popular president of the Re- tail Florists' Association describes as the most delightful vacation and most interesting trip he ever has had. He says much of the pleasure was due to the way they were taken in hand by members of the trade in the places visited, particularly at San Francisco and Los Angeles. Coming home by way of Kansas City, where Mr. Bohannon holds an interest in a prosperous flo- rists' business, they were accompanied by Mrs. F. R. Hills, formerly of May- wood and well known here, who now lives in Los Angeles.

Miller, president of the American Bulb Co., is in Seattle, returning from Japan. He has four cars of gigantcum lily bulbs, which have been inspected there, and is engaged in shipping his company's western orders from that point. One car goes to Canada. Mr. Miller reports that fruit growers' de- mands have made it hard to get refrig- erator cars in which to send the Chi- cago shipments. The American Bulb Co. has rented the large double store at 58 South Water street, in which to receive and dispatch the Dutch bulbs now coming to hand in quantity.

Among the more than 100 names on the payroll of Peter Reinberg are sev- eral of many years' service, for loyalty is one of the thu»^s Mr. Reinberg in- spires in his staff. For instance, Charles Dieterich, the barn boss, has been with Mr. Reinberg thirty years. He had intended a return to Luxem- bourg this summer to look up relatives, but has received word that the only one surviving tlie war is a niece, who is coming to make her home with him. Charles Erne seeks larger quarters. His 1)usiness is about as large as it can be in tlie room in the Atlas block. He would like to get larger space on the same floor, liccause he feels that the in- creased facilities would result in an im- mediate increase in the business. P. C.

Rains and, more recently, frosts have spoiled many outdoor flowers, and in- door flowers are once more coming into their own. Roses went sluggishly until September 27, when they cleaned out well. Prices on hybrid teas vary from $3 to $16 per hundred, with select Amei;^can Beauties at $4 to $5 per dozen. Carna- tions are much improved in quality and most growers of these popular flowers have started shipping. The best flow- ers realize $3 per liundred, but many are cleared at half these prices. Chrys- anthemums as yet are largely confined to Golden Glow and Smith's Advance and sell up to $3 and $4 per dozen. A few pompons have already appeared. Some single violets are arriving, but the quality is not yet of the best. Gladioli never appeared in greater abundance or of grander quality at the end of September. Prices have im- proved to $3 to $(5 per hundred. Indoor asters are cleaning up well, but the remnants of the outdoor crop are sold cheaply. Bachelor's buttons, a former favorite, are now largely in the discard Cosmos is plentiful and there are some nice scarlet pentstemons, dahlias, gen- tians and everlastings. Lilies are practically nil, but a little valley is offered, with few buyers. Some good Cattleya lahiata is arriving and sells at $18 ])er dozen, with cypripedi- ums going at $2. A few oncidiums and vandas are also seen. Bouvardia is seen in small lots. A rather better call ex- ists for adiantum and asparagus.

The market has maintained the little improvement noted in the last week or two, but without any material increase in prices, although it inay be said that figures on all staple stocks are stronger. Clearances, except in certain lines of herbaceous stock, are easier, and condi- tions are gradually shaping themselves toward what is confidently expected to be a good fall trade. The demand is better, in that retailers appear to be willing to take a little chance on early purchases rather than resort to the hand-to-mouth dealings for a long time so conspicuous. This tendency is, of course, encouraged by the wholesalers, who are somewhat tired of the small transactions common in the last few weeks. The cool weather of the last few days \a8 resulted in a great improvement in the quality of roses, and while the stock in the lower grades is mostly from lateral growths, some fine flowers in the long-stemmed grades are in supply. American Beauty has advanced in price with the ending of the summer season, but the higher figures are largely con- fined to the medium grades. Hadley and Russell are also in supply, under the same conditions. The general run of hybrid teas moves at about the same prices as the previous week, but clear- ances are made without concessions of consequence. A few carnations are coming in and, because they are few, are fairly strong at $1 to $2 per hundred, with $4 per hundred the top price for selected flow- ers. Ordinarily, the first week of Octo- ber sees a fair supply of pinks, but they are not likely to cut much of a figure in the market for a while yet. Orchids arc plentiful, but not in such quantity at this season as in pre-war days, which accounts, perhaps, for the maintenance of high prices. The qual- ity of arrivals is nothing to boast of, but the top price for the best, outside of hybrids, is about 75 cents, hybrids bringing from that figure to $1.50 for specials. Minimum prices can hardly be quoted. A few Easter lilies arrive occasion- ally, but not in quantity sufficient to . meet the demand. Lily of the valley is a;lmost a rarity, but its place is to some extent filled by white bouvardia, which is in fair supply at 40 to 50 cents per bunch of about six sprays. Chrysanthemums in small quantities continue to arrive, but attract no par- B DON'T OVERLOOK THIS BARGAIN !

Tt was dull, but as the close drew near l)usineas im- proved until at the end it was quite brisk. There was a scarcity of fine flowers, such as Russell roses and or- chids. There was no valley for the weddings and almost no lilies. There were a few more chrysanthemums, the variety called Smith's Advance coming to the aid of Golden Glow in meeting the improved demand. There was a marked change in the complexion of the outdoor flowers, asters and gladioli giving way everywhere to dahlias. Wild asters were in evidence. Dahlias are approaching the height of their season. The flowers are ex- tremely fine. The weather has been fa- vorable, with bright, warm days and cool nights with })lenty of rain. There are many good dahlia growers and many more good varieties of dahlias that are grown in quantity. The market is treating the fine stock generously. Ex- cellent prices are paid for good flowers that reacli the buyers in good order. The poor stock sells, but at low prices. Carnations are increasing in numbers, although still small and short-stemmed. A few early violets and sweet peas have made their appearance. Snapdragons are more plentiful. There is enough, both in yellow and in pink, to deserve mention. There is an abundance of cos- mos. Both asters and gladioli are de- clining; in some places they have ceased. Roses of all colors and grades sell well. The Fall Show. At the meeting of the executive com- mittee of the Pennsylvania Horticul- tural Society, held in the society's of- fice in the Finance building September 23, it was decided to hold the annual chrysanthemum show in November. This shoWj which was given up last year on account of the war, will take place at the Armory, Broad and Callowhill streets, November 4, 5, 6 and 7. The committee earnestly hopes that the retail florists of Philadelphia will give the same generous support to the show that they have accorded to the OCTOBEH 2. 1919.

Sam Dunlap has been a personage of such importance in the floral world of this city that his retirement from the scene merits special mention. Sam's name did not actually appear on the swell noteheads of Pennock Bros., but he was none the less a tower of strength to the firm, and when he announced that he had sold his house in Wyndmoor and would resign his position and go west, it was a distinct shock. The surprise was increased when Sam announced that he would not go alone. The artiste would accompany him.

She charmed everyone she met, but that she would become Mrs. Samuel Dunlap and migrate to the far west did not occur to anybody. Charles Baxter and Charles W. kahlert, who ought to have known if anybody did, were startled. So sud- denly did the thing happen that nobody had mu9h chance for felicitations, so this is intended as a sort of rice shower to follow the happy couple away out beyond the prairie. Mr. Bayersdorfer Abroad. Sydney H. Bayersdorfer, whose re- turn from Europe was announced last week, was seen at his office in this city September 29. Mr. Bayersdorfer is looking well, despite the fact that he has had a hard trip, working sixteen hours a day while in Europe. Mr. Bayersdorfer says that he was told everywhere that he was the first representative of an American florists' supply house to visit Europe since the war. He says that he had a lot of bas- kets made expressly for his firm as soon as he reached Holland and that he had these baskets put on his steamer at Rotterdam before he left. He says that while goods were scarce, he was able to get a large quantity, being on the ground first, and that of certain things lie bought all the good stock in sight. Mr. Bayersdorfer was most kindly- treated in every country in Europe through which he traveled. He said he was an American and the people every- where felt that America had fed them and everywhere they were kind and con- siderate. Mr. Bayersdorfer expects weekly shipments of considerable size to come in from Europe throughout the season. The Delineator.

The writer of flui article Ixdieves that Enjrland {)ossesses nuiny rosarians who ha\ '• a thorough knowledge of va- rieties, tlu'ir names, a])])t'arance and habits, but that such knowledge is al- most entirely confined to comuu-rcial growers here.

After studying the matter carefully Mr. Eisele decided to place liis order of palm seeds for next season for exactly the same quantity as last season. In speaking of the length of the trip, which had been prolonged by Mrs. Eisele 's indisposition at one place, Mr. Eisele said that when attacked by homesickness in Portland he had been cheered by finding three different col- lections of his own pet Dreer crotons in the florists' windows. After re- counting the incident he led the way to one of the Eiverview greenhouses, where were two blocks of croton gems. One was the beautiful Edmundsonien- sis, the other the Souvenir de Thomas Eochfort. It was in Portland also that Mr. Currey sprang a surprise on Mr. Eisele by bringing a charming young lady reporter for an interview. The re- sult was a front-page article in a Port- land paper, in which Mr. Eisele gave it as his opinion that the city's rose gar- den would one day rival the Columbia highway as an attraction to visitors.

Any grower on the Pacific coast who has the facilities for producing stock for the wholesale market will find easy selling. Like this: We had expected to use a series of strong dis- play advertisements in the Pacific coast depart- ment of The Review this autumn, but the 6-lnch ads run at intervals in the summer, and the small card appearing steadily, h-.ve brought us such a rush of business that we find it not necessary to do as much advertising as we had expected. — Culver Bros., Proprietors, Los Angeles Geranium Co., Los Angeles, Cal., September 25, 1919. Any surplus stock on the Pacific coast, is easily moved this season. LOS ANOELES, CAL. The Market. The feature of the market last week was the great scarcity of carnations, the field stock being shorter than ever. It has been practically a fight to get any in the market, the whole- salers and retailers taking the stock either at the growing grounds or from the delivery cars as they came in. Roses are plentiful and greeenhouse carnations about equal to the demand. Orchids are coming from the north, but there is practically nothing from local growers. Business locally has come in streaks, some days good and others poor, but the general tone is good for this season. Chrysanthemums are about equal to the demand, but more shipping stock could be used. Various Notes. Martin Reukauf, representing H. Bayersdorfcr & Co., Philadelphia, called on the trade last week. Miss Josie Then and her sister, daugh- ters of Anton Then, of Chicago, accom- panied by Miss Shultz, of Detroit, have been visiting Los Angeles. They made the trip out by easy stages, calling at various places of interest en route, and are charmed with southern California. J. Dieterich left September 21 for a trip to .3an Francisco. Paul Ecke, who for the last seven years had assisted his father, the late A. Ecke, in liis business as a poinsettia specialist, has taken on the business and will carry it on at the same address, 1226 Hay avenue. It may be well to mention that during the late Mr. Ecke 's illness, his correspondence naturally got a little in arrears, and, although Paul Ecke is working hard to straighten things out, there may he some delay. A post-mortem examination showed' that cancer of the stomach wa- the cause of Mr. Ecke's death. The Athletic Club Florist, on West Seventh street, reports a good business right along, showing that the trade of Los Angeles is working south. This year J. Rolleri is growing a con- siderable proportion of his own chrys- anthemums and the stock coming from the growing grounds certainly looks fine. Robert Newcomb, representing the Burlington Willow Ware Shops, Bur- ington, la., and other firms, was in town last week and said this is the most suc- cessful trip from a business point of view^ that he has ever taken. Darling's Flower Shop had the honor of decorating the President's suite at the Alexandria ho,i;el during the visit of President and Mrs. Wilson. It was a big job well carried out, and the whole of the staff was working day and night in preparation. Theodore Yakas, of Oakland, was a visitor last week. The L. A. Floral Co. has been ship- ping out fine early pompons, probably the first in the market. F. Sperry has been under the weather for a few days, but is around again. C. L. Washburn, of Chicago, has been looking over the situation out here. He intends to return shortly. The H. N. Gage Co. is pushing a fine line of ferns now, and H. N. Gage says that they are a week ahead of last year with pompons. S. Murata & Co. report fine shipping business, but stock scarce. H. R. Richards. SAN FRANCISCO, CAL. The Market. There is a scarcity of practically every variety of flower in the local mar- ket this week and this condition, to- gether with a strong demand both for shipping stock and from San Francisco retail establishments, has resulted in a scale of prices higher than they have been for a number of years.

The first crop coniiufj in unusually early and the second crop a little later than usual have left a gap which is being filled with difficulty. Good mums are bringing .$2. ,10 per dozen, while some varieties, such as Turner, are bring- ing as high as $3.50. Even the small Canary is selling for 50 cents per dozen, while 'wholesalers are getting 25 cents a bunch for tiny pompons. The aster crop is completely finished and all shipping in this line has been discontinued. The new crop of carna- tions is allowing a more generous cut now and prices keep well up, even though the blooms are somewhat small. The rose stock is improving and becom- ing more plentiful. Good Russell and Columbia cost the retailer as high as $2.50 per dozen and Ophelia brings $1 per dozen. Orchids, at 75 cents a bloom = satisfaction. s 1 GEORGE J. HALL & CO., 1 1 423 E.

Violets are seen in all the retail shops now, but as yet no ship- ping has commenced. The price is keep- ing close around $1 and $1.50 per dozen bunches. Eetail est.ablishments are all busy and report excellent business condi- tions. The recent holidays seemed to work no hardship with local florists. In fact, the arrival of the fleet, Admis- sion day, the reception of President Wilson September 17 and 18, were oc- casions for numerous social affairs, all calling for the use of flowers in their decorations, and on account of the im- portant and unusual nature of the events no expense was spared in the work. The President's Visit. During the entire stay of President Wilson and Mrs. Wilson, both in this city and in Oakland, their apartments were literally bowers of California blooms, the rarest products of the fore- most nurseries and conservatories in the district lending their beauty for the pleasure of the notable guests. - M-- 68 The Florists^ Review October 2, 1919. CHRYSANTHEIVIUMS Best Quality All Varieties Ready for Shipment WHOLESALE GROWERS AND SHIPPERS United Flower & Supply Co., Inc 448 BUSH STREET, SAN FRANCISCO, CAL. Wliile the presidential party was in Oakland, a number of prominent ladies of that city arranged with several estab- lishments to see that Mrs. Wilson was generously supplied with fresh corsages of orchids at every occasion. Among the scores- of offerings received by the party in San Francisco were orchids from Raphael Weill, and from Governor William D. Stephens and Mrs. Stephens; roses from Mrs. Frederick Funston and the Century Club; roses and chrysanthe- juums from Henry T. Scott; orchids and hydrangeas from Thomas J. Coleman, manager of the St. Francis hotel, the temporary White House, and a basket six feet high filled with yellow chrys- anthemums from Mayor James Rolph, Jr.. and Mrs, Rolph. A beautiful and original basket was presented to the President by the Cali- fornia Wine Association. This appears in an illustration on another page. Upon leaving the city, the President presented the basket to the wounded soldiers at the Letterman hospital. The piece was made up in the shop of Pclicano, Rossi & Co. Various Notes. Due to the demand for chrysanthe- mums at the present time, the E. W. McLellan Co. has been obliged to cut down many of its large orders. This company is beginning to cut roses, but not to any large extent as yet. Henry Avansino, manager of the Bush street depot, states that practically all of the stock is cleaned up each dav. The United Flower & Supply Co. re- ported similar conditions in regard to chrysanthemum shii)nients last week, but is expecting relief as soon as the crop of later varieties is ready for cut- ting. Enomoto & Co. nrc experiencing a shortage of yellow chrysanthemums, but Mr. Enomoto states that a plentiful supply of all the later varieties is ex- pected about October 10. J. A. Axell says that he is receiving favorable reports from his eastern muni shipments. A tunnel cave-in just above Redding, Cal., has tied up' northern shipments to some extent, Mr. Axell says, but this condition will last only a few days. He is getting a fine cut of Russell, Columbia and Ophelia just now, which he is selling for .$1 to .$;i ])er dozen. A good stock of oriental pods, which are most popular at present, is practically sold out. He has also been successful with dyed thistles and statice. Mrs. R. E. Darbee, 1036 Hyde street, is busy with out-of-town shipments. Re- cently she made a tour of inspection of the various nurseries in this vicinity in regard to the chrysanthemum situation.

Mrs. Darbee is anticipating a splendid crop of violets from her own fields, and as she has more than twice the stock this season that she had last, she is assured of a dependable supply for shipping which will hd ready about the middle of October. J. Dieterich, of Los Angeles, was in San Francisco last week, calling on the local trade. Conrad Klam, Olympia, Wash., was another visitor in this city. The Santa Barbara trade was represented here last week by a call from Arthur Gleave. Mrs. Copeland, Sutter street, reports a large shipping business in oriental pods, which she is sending to various parts of the country. This shop, as well as other retail establishments, was exceptionally busy last week with or- ders for the Jewish holidays. The Booth-Bates wedding, held the early part of the week, was decorated by A. O. Stein. It was a home affair and chrysanthemums, delphiniums and gla- dioli were used profusely. The shower bouquets were fans of orchids and gar- denias. Another home wedding is be- ing decorated by this firm this week. Mr. Stein has just completed the pur- chase of a handsome new home on Six- teenth avenue, in the Sunset district. The Stein force was recently enlarged by the addition of Henry Hefty, for- merly of Portland, Ore, Norman Marcus has returned from a vacation spent in the southern part of the state. A dahlia show was held at the Oak- land hotel, Oakland, Gal., for three days beginning September 28, under the aus- pices of the Alameda County Tloral Society. This was the first annual event of its kind to be held in that city. A number of professional growers from both sides of the bay participated. A freak dahlia bush grown by J. J. Mur- phy, 606 Santa Clara avenue, Alameda, Cal., containing three blooms of differ- ent colors growing from a single branch, was exhibited at the show. One of the blooms was a deep orange shade, the second a bright cerise hue, while the third is developing into a rich carmine shade. M. M. TACOMA, WASH. The Market. If business during the last two weeks of Sei)teml)er is any indication of the fall trade, there will be no room for complaint, at least so far as the demand is concerned. There is an ado(|uate supply of stock in tlic market. Roses are fairlv ])lcnti- ful, including Ophelia, RussV'll and Cecile Brunnor. The weather for the last month has been ideal, and stock in and around Tacoma is looking well. Various Notes. At the range of the Acme Floral Co., on East Fiftieth street, both bench and pot stock looks well. The firm is cutting good Ophelia, Cecile Brunner and White Killarney. A bench of 6-incli and 8- inch cyclamens, as well as a house of 4- inch and 5-inch, is in a healthy condi- tion, ready for a shift. Mr. Simpson says he will plant more peonies and discontinue growing asters and gladioli next year. At L. F. Tschunko's range, on Pacific avenue, the prospect of a large cut of mums and carnations is good.

Fred Smith, of the Smith Floral Co., left for California, and his son Arthur will look after both the store and the greenhouses in his absence. Axel Biork, foreman of the Wood- land Park Floral Co., Sumner, Wash., was on the sick list, but is able to be around again. E. P. JOPUN, MO. L. H. Archias, of Sedalia, Mo., secre- tary of the Missouri State Florists' As- sociation, recently visited this city with his two daughters, Edith and Helen, to interest the local trade in the state con- vention, to be held in Kansas City the second week in November. The American Flower Shop under its new management reports a good in- crease in trade. R. K. Troutman has moved to new quarters at Fourth street and Joplin avenue, where he will have a much more attractive store. H. A. Hall has some of the finest chyrsanthemums in southwestern Mis- souri. His carnations and other stock look well. He reports three wedding decorations during last week. L. H. NEWARK, N. J. The Market. Last week a considerably larger quan- tity of chrysanthemums came into the market. The quality of the flowers has improved, the stems being longer and stronger. Gladioli are being super- seded by the early fall flowers, although there is still a considerable quantity in the market. Dahlias and asters are ex- cellent. The growers are looking for- ward to a fine season, as they have a fine lot of chrysanthemums and other fall flowers in their houses. Various Notes. Philips Bros., 938 Broad street, have painted all the woodwork in their store, in preparation for the coming season. Before the war Newark florists fre- quently had orders for steamer baskets or bouquets, for delivery to tourists leaving on European trips. With some florists here the total annual sales of this nature amounted to a large sum.

This should not be allowed to be a campaign of the few, as all are interest- ed in proportion to their investments. There has been no dictation as to how much a florist should give — that is a matter entirely for him to decide. In other lines of business where campaigns such as ours are conducted, contributions are on a specific basis, and no difficulty is experienced in collecting the fund aimed for. And we should have no dif- ficulty; if every florist in this country should contribute only $5, our fund would be easily completed. As it is, several of our wise and up-to-date mem- bers of the trade have contributed 100 times this amount. You gentlemen who have not subscribed might well ask your- selves why they have done this. It could not have been that they alone were likely to benefit, but rather that the in- For WISCONSIN delivery of "Home-grown Flowers" GET IN TOUCH WITH J. E. MATTHEWSON SHEBOYGAN. WIS.

John Young, 3ee'y. SOCIETY OF AMERICAN FLORISTS. College Section, During the convention of the S. A. F. at Detroit, a small group of college flo- rists held a meeting in one of the ante- rooms of the exhibition hall. Professor H. B. Dorner, of the University of Illi nois, was the temporary chairman. He suggested that the college florists form an informal organization within the 8. A. F. Members present were heartily in favor of this and proceeded to elect a president and secretary-treasurer. H. B. Dorner was elected president and Alfred C. Hottes secretary-treasurer. An informal discussion was held, in which an attempt was made to formulate the aims of the organization, which may be briefly stated as follows: The college florists should be able to meet together each year to hold discussions relating to the problems of teaching and investiga- tion in floriculture. The organization would give an opportunity for the flo- rist to present to the investigator his problems and for the college man to cooperate with the florist in making plain to him the ideals toward which in- structional work and investigation are carried on in the colleges. It was suggested that all those mem- bers of the S. A. F. who are engaged in teaching definite floricultural courses or conducting research in flori(iulture in the universities and colleges would be cligi ble for membership. Member F. T. D. FALL RIVER.

HARRIS & LEVER Florists Members of Florists' Telegraph Delivery seems to be that the public has money, that it is spending it, and that it is willing to pay the price for the best in everything. I heard, for instance, the other day, that haberdashers were hav- ing no trouble now in selling silk shirts from $10 up, to workmen who formerly paid $1.50, and this is the way all along the line. Chrysanthemums are beginning to come in good supply, and if the season 's crop is to be judged by the advance guard, there will be no complaints heard this fall. Gladioli are still to be had, and of a far better quality than the earlier ones. It was no trouble at all to get $8 per hundred for them last week, and they were worth every cent of it. Carnations are making their ap- pearance, and while most of them are short-stemmed, yet some growers seem to have had an eye on the early market, and the flowers have not only fine blooms, but long stems as well. Asparagus is about the only green that is to be seen, but smilax can be had when needed. Various Notes. The entertainment committee of the Florists' Club held a meeting recently, at which it was decided to postpone the Victory banquet one week. William F. Ekas, the chairman of this committee, is determined that this shall be the big- gest thing, aside from the S. A. F. con- vention, the Florists' Club has ever un- dertaken. Then some of you old High- landers will have a chance to give us a few steps of the Highland fling, for there is going to be a dance, as well as eats.

Now, you young fellows, who some- times say there is nothing at the club to interest you, this is for your benefit.

Last Saturday good roses grew scarce — all that were in sight were gone. Now, Jesse P. King ships to the S. S. Pennock Co. every day, the train leav- ing Mount Airy at 3 p. m. So John J. Perry, knowing about what would be in this consignment, took a little flier in futures; in fact, most of the ship- ment, which comprises 1,800 roses, was sold before it left the range. But ' ' the best laid schemes," etc. About 3:30 Mr. King called Mr. Perry up and told him that the consignment had missed the train. "Good night" to all of those customers depending on Mr. Perry's word to have the stock at 5 o'clock. I may be telling secrets out of the lodge, but Perry took a couple of turns up and down the floor; the sales- men stood and looked; no one offered a suggestion. Mr. Perry went into the phone booth, had a few minutes' con- versation with Mr. King at Mount Airy, came out and told Ferd Guerth to jump into his machine, which was standing in front of the place, and go out along the Frederick road until he met King's truck — to pay no attention to speed laws, but be back by 5 o'clock. Mount Airy is thirty miles away. They met Guerth six miles from there. At 5:30, after the last truck had left with the orders, Mr. Perry gave a satisfied sigh and said, "Some service." Robert Halliday, who has been so ill for some time, is now spending a while with his uncle at Ocean City, N. J. He is much improved and we all hope that he will be back in the game before long.

Cut stock is greatly improved in quality, especially roses, of which mut-h is expected from our local growers this season. Prices advanced a good deal the last part of the week. In roses Russell, Ophelia, Columbia and Ward are showing well in stem and color. Kil- larney and White Killarney are in splen- did demand, especially the latter, the only white rose in the market at pres- ent. Carnations are improving daily. Flow^ers are of good size and longer of stem and the few coming in clean up every day. Few chrysanthemums are in at present. A shipment from Cali- fornia arrived in perfect condition. The local cut will not begin before October 15. Dahlias are not nearly so heavy as last year at this time, but every day sees heavier consignments; these clean up daily. Asters and gladioli have seen their best days, but are still quite abundant. At present there is a great deal of outdoor stock coming in and the demand for it has been quite heavy of late. There is also a large demand for valley, orchids and lilies, but this market has none to offer at the present time. During last week green goods had a EGGERT N.

It is to be known as the "Say It with Flowers ' ' League. A meeting was called September 24 at Windier 's wholesale house for all florists interested in bowl- ing. Twenty-four responded. Martin Seeger was elected president; Frank A. "Windier, vice-president; Frank Plotz, secretary, and George Kuehner, treas- urer. It was decided to bowl every Wednesday night on the new alleys in the Farmers' Trust building, Grand and Gravois avenue. Four teams were formed, with six to a team. The selection of captains was next taken up. George Kuehner will captain the Hoses; Frank Windier, the Carnations; Andre Bourdet, the Daisies, and A. J. Bentzen, the Sweet Peas. The four captains then drew lots for players, and the following names were drawn to compose the four teams: Roses. Charles Halin. Oeorge Kuehner. Harry Schlechter. George Berner. Wnilam C. Smith. Daisies. Andre Bourdet. L. Blair. Ilay Young. .T. J. Windier. Will Ossick. A. Hoffman, Jr. Carnations. F. A. Windier. Martin Seeger. Albert Gumz. Arthur Beyer. Joseph Krayer. Sweet Peas. A. J.

Alexander Lurie, liorticultuiist at the Missouri Botanical Garden; has re- signed his position and will leave the city October 1 to make his home in Cleveland, O. The members of the Flo- rists' Club, of which he was trustee, will feel his loss greatly. J. F. Ammann, president of the S. A.

Mr. Ammann will be in Atlantic City October 1 and from there he will attend the F. T. D. meeting at Buffalo October 14. He greatly regrets that he will have to miss the Florists' Club meeting here October 9. The Knoll greenhouse range at Kimmswick, Mo., is nearing completion. The work is being pushed by the Ameri- can Greenhouse Mfg. Co., of Chicago. Mr. Knoll hopes that the warm weather will continue at least until the range is under glass.

During the even- ing they will arrange for an interest- ing program for next week 's meeting. George Wagner, who was formerly designer for Grimm & Gorly and ia now in business at San Francisco, Cal., spent last week here calling on friends. Mr. Wagner says business is good out on the coast. A visit to the establishment of Henry Johann & Son at Collinsville, 111., last week found this place in tiptop shape to begin the season. The greenhouses are under the management of Charles Johann. Everything under the 15,000 square feet of glass is looking fine, es- pecially the rose houses, in which Rus- sell, Ophelia and Killarney are grown. i Only the Enchantress varieties in car- nations are grown here. There is also a large house of mums. A building in course of erection on Main street across the way from the old store will be com- pleted by October 10 and wdll be under the management of Herman Johann. The new store will have all new fixtures, and according to the plans the exterior and interior will be up-to-date in every respect. The death of Miss M. S.

Tiio cold weather Last week put snap into business, wliich is good all around. Heavy rains during the early part of tlie week liad their effect on asters and other outdoor stock, causing a scarcity wiiich was severely felt. Also the dark weather held back tlie indoor stock, so that everything sold at a premium. Roses were scarce. The out-of-town shij)i)ers were handicajiped by express conditions and in some cases were un- al)ic to siiip their stock. American Beauties arrived each day from the east and their increased demand brouglit the j)rice up. All grades sold well, with the intermediate grades unequal to the demand. Columbia roses were few, but their quality put them in the Beauty class. They had stems almost as long as special Beauties. Both long and shf)rt grades were unequal to the de- mand. A good suj)ply of Premier came in each day, but it was all sold soon after its arrival. This rose is gaining in popularity and its future during this coming season is bright. Ward roses are of high (juality, with large buds and long stems. The other roses, such as SAN DIEGO, CAL. BOYLE & DARNAUD Jflomt, F. T. D. florists. We grow our own flowers.

Ophelia, Shawyer, Maryland, Killanioy, White Killarnoy, Hoosier Beauty and Sunburst, are in the market, but their supply, like the others, is not equal to the demand. Carnations of good quality, like roses, are scarce. Some carnations arrived tliat were spotted and poor in (piality and simply stocked up the wholesaler's icebox. Asters and gladioli are poor, and the demand for both has fallen considerably. Other seasonable flow- ers, such as cosmos, gaillardias, ziiniias, baby's breath, celosia, calendulas, snap- dragon, feverfew and centaurcas, are to be had. The demand for each kind is good. Some pansies and bouvardia found a market last week, but not enough to mention. A small number of scabiosa, marigolds and larkspur were in big de- mand. Strawflowers this season are few and the scarcity is felt badly. Greens of all kinds are plentiful. Various Notes. John M. Carey, 491 Woodward ave- nue, is showing the first good chrysan- themums of the season. His attractive window displays draw notice.

John Warncke has several houses of 6-inch Boston ferns, specimen stock, with which he is doing a big business. Herman Knope, of John Breitmeyer's Sons' Mack avenue greenhouses, is nurs- ing along a house of the new Macawii ferns. They are looking most promis- ing. He is already preparing to lose most of the range, since the land has been condemned and is to be used as a city playground. His mum plants are healthy-looking and should give some fine blooms. The Marine City Floral Co. is cutting some choice bouvardia, scabiosa, Jap- anese lilies and snapdragons. Its calen- dulas arc excellent, with stems almost a foot and a half long. Its carnations are among the best in the market. Albert Stahelin is cutting Columbia, Premier and Ward roses of the best quality that have reached this city in years. The Columbias look like Hill's display when the F. T. D. met in De- troit some years ago. A daughter was born to Mr. and Mrs. Stahelin Septem- ber 22, so growing roses are not the only thing growing at his Bedford, Mich., range. A big hail-storm struck the range of the John Breitmeyer's Sons September 21, wrecking ninety-five per cent of the glass.

Last week contained a number of din- ners and luncheons and several wed- dings. Consequently the demand for flowers was somewhat heavier than a few weeks ago. The balance of sup- ply and demand has been maintained and there is no stock going to waste. Boses are coming in better as the sea- son advances. Carnations are more plentiful than they were a week ago, although the supply is still small, and they are helping out, as asters and gladioli are almost gone. The variety of roses is almost sufficient to take care of all orders. Eussell, Ophelia, Colum- bia and Shawyer are all good at this time. The range of prices is from $4 to $10 per hundred. Various Notes. Robert R. Wade, a cousin of William Wade, manager of the Kansas City office of the Pinehurst Floral Co., died of apoplexy September 25 in his office, 927 Scarritt building. He was a shorthand reporter in Judge Southern's court. He went to the office at 7 0 'clock and when W. W. Calvin, an attorney who occupies the same office, entered at 9 o'clock, he found Mr. Wade dead. Mr. Wade was a graduate of the law department of the University of Michigan and was widely known in Masonic orders. L. H. Archias, of the Archias Floral Co., Sedalia, Mo., and Mr. Kaupp, of G. P. Kaupp & Son, Nevada, Mo., were in the city September 25 and 26 in the interest of the Missouri State Florists' Society. They are making a campaign for members and expect to get every florist in this city, as well as in every other city in the state, to join. Mr. and Mrs. L. R. Bohannon, of Chi- cago, spent three days in Kansas City last week on their way home from the coast. Mr, Bohannon is a member of the firm of T. .T. Noll & Co., of this city. Mrs. T. A. Moseley has featured gold- fish as a side line this summer and has sold more than 400 fishes, with, of course, the necessary supplies. William B. Reid has returned to his post with Samuel Murray after an ab- sence of a year and a half in the British aviation service. Mr. Reid says he en- joyed the experience immensely, but is satisfied to get back to everyday busi- ness life after all. C. T.

It may be true some of the growers had more orders than they could fill, but it was nbt BO with the jobbers. Deliveries of English cyclamen seed are only fifty per cent of the orders. Some of the dealers, many of whom there- fore find themselves oyersold, are trying to get stock from Germany, late as it is. Watson S. Woodrupi", of S. D. Wood- ruff & Sons, Orange, Conn., with Mrs. Woodruff, will sail for France on the steamship Nieuw Amsterdam, of the Hol- land-America line, October 4, on a com- bined business and pleasure trip for a stay of about two months. Charles W. Witbeck, well-known among American seedsmen, is now one of the staff of the Everett© R. Peacock Co., Chicago. Mr. Witbeck 's experience cov- ers a large part of the United States, but for the last few years he has had charge of the trial grounds of one of the large seed firms in the south, where the Ever- ette E. Peacock Co. is about to establish A branch of its business. Harry Saier, Lansing, Mich., has pur- chased the 3-story building opposite his store at 111 East Ottawa street, to which he expects to move about the middle of October. Mr. Saier is reenforcing the building with steel beams to support 200 tons and will install an elevator and new equipment, including a $1,200 cleaning machine and seed bins on the third floor. The retail seed store will Ije on the ground floor and the offices and mail order department on the second floor. The seed business is Be- ing done at the flower store, on West Michigan avenue, until the seed sales house is ready. BECOBD BUI.B CABOO ABBIVES The largest shipload of bulbs which ever crossed the Atlantic reached the port of New York September 22 on the steamer Norman Monarch, of the Cu- nard line. A total of 27,564 cases of Holland bulbs appeared on the vessel's manifest. Shipments of 10,000 or 12,000 cases of Dutch bulbs have been brought by a single boat occasionally, but none so large as this. The figures are so big that at first glance skeptical statisti- cians begin to apply pencil to paper to figure out if the vessel's capacity is equal to such a cargo. They find it is, for the Norman Monarch carried little other freight aside from eighty bags of seed from Rotterdam and 250 bags from London and also some consignments of hides from the latter port. The steamer Valacia was expected to bring a cargo of Holland bulbs when it arrived the same day, but there were none on board. A fire in the hold had caused the change of the consignments of bulbs from the Valacia to the Nor- man Monarch and the Valacia brought home troops from Brest instead. This change accounts for the unusually large number of bulbs on one vessel. The consignees of the Rotterdam cargo of the Norman Monarch were not given for publication by the Cunard line, but only the total figures.

Bolgiano & Son's fleet of automo- biles won the prize for the best decorat- ed fleet in Baltimore's automobile pa- rade Saturday, September 20. There were about 1,600 trucks in line. The garden float, which led their fleet, was composed of a miniature growing gar- den, containing asparagus, beans, car- rots, lettuce, beets, cabbage, endive and tomatoes all laid off in rows and actually growing. Working in the garden was a farmerette assisted by a farmer boy, who was wheeling a wheelbarrow filled with vegetables. Following the garden float was a truck showing an immense poultry house and a rooster so large that he looked suspi- ciously human. He even shimmied to the amusement of the spectators, but it seemed that he could not crow. Each department of J. Bolgiano & Son's seed store was represented by a truck in the fleet. The firm also competed in the con- test for the best slogan for motor trucks, submitting, "We auto deliver and we do," and "Autos put the 'dust' in in- dustry. ' ' MOTT-LY GLEANINGS. "The best laid schemes of mice and men gang aft agley," observed Mrs. S. B. Stewart, of Stewart's Seed Store, Omaha, Neb. "While I was on my vacation this summer, both men and mice ran things to suit themselves. Now for the mice!" And the sterner sex know that when the fair sex are un- afraid of the little rodent — well, er — S. B. Stewart is doing big things at the nursery end, supplying the store with cut perennials, from which orders are booked for fall delivery. Charles Stew- art has charge of the seed department and speaks encouragingly of progress since the setback some two years ago. Carl Magersdorf, manager of the Atchison Seed & Flower Store Co., Atch- ison, Kan., takes pride in the unique character of the store, which was de- signed by him and arranged to care for seeds on one side and plants on the other. The idea is cleverly carried out; a pergola with brick and tiled floor fol- lows the window and ends in an icebox. The seed window is separate and is util- ized through the flower season. Stock is largely supplied from the greenhouses, under the charge of Ernest Magers- dorf. Readers of The Review will be glad to know that Carl Magersdorf has fully recovered from the burns received when rescuing his family from the house which was destroyed by flre. At the time of the S.

Superintendent Sehaefer mentioned that a weekly feeding of sheep manure greatly benefited the growth, which has attained a height of thirty feet. With Clematis paniculata as a companion, a bed of Canna King Humbert, backed with an assortment of conifers, forms a charming picture and has been much admired by the numerous summer visitors to inspect the grounds of this old established seed house. Man- ager Weedy, of the seed department, expresses the opinion that there will be a shortage of some leading stocks owing to an increasing demand and compara- tively reduced supply. W. M. MECHELL INSUBES ElVIPLOYEES. Prominent among the projects for re- warding service of employees and of in- ducing them to greater loyalty to the firms for which they work is that of life insurance. Bonus systems, share-hold- ing and profit-sharing plans are being tried by various establishments in the trade of late. The Henry F. Michell Co., Philadelphia, has adopted the sys- tem of providing its employees with life insurance, as indicated in the following letter which accompanied the issuance of a certificate to each person who had been in the concern's employ over one year: This certificate of life insurance la presented to you in appreciation of your earnest and faith- ful service and as an expression In a substantial form of the value- the Henry F. Michell Co. places upon your loyal coSperation, also with the wish to aid you in providing for your dependents In the event of your death. We have made arranjcements with the Trayel- elers' Insurance Co., Hartford, Conn., to Insure all employees who have been In the service of the Henry F. Michell Co. one year or more In amounts determined by the length of service as set forth In the accompanying certificate. Employees whose period of service Is less than one year at the effective date of this insurance, as well as the new employees, will be insured as outlined above when they have completed one yenr of service. This Insurance became effective at noon. May 14. 1919. No medical examination is required for this insurance. It is provided at the expense of the Henry F. Michell Co. No deductions from wages or contributions of any kind by the employee will be required. This action Is voluntary on the part of the Henry F. Michell Co. It does not change your freedom to leave when you please, nor our right as employer to dismiss you. This insurance does not In any manner take the place of nor interfere with the benefits pro- vided by the Pennsylvania workmen's compensa- tion law, but is in addition thereto.

While other things have brought about a revival of business, we think that the publicity work done by the nurserymen has helped our line, espe- cially the special articles on trees and plants which appear at intervals in the papers and magazines, reaching several millions of readers. We all sold more stock last spring than in several years before. We all find a good demand for next . season and at good prices. We want to keep people reading and talk- ing about trees and plants and to get the Idea of planting things so firmly fixed in their minds as to have it be- come a habit, so that later on, when our surplus comes on the market — as it will — we shall have a demand that will con- sume it. Don't you want to help in work of that sort? Aren't the members of our American Association of Nurserymen the ones to look to for big, broad thought and action? And we purpose working to the end that profit will ac- crue to those who pay the bills, A check to Cnarles Sizemore, Louisi- ana, Mo., will help the work along. We ask your cooperation in this movement. Market Development Committee, American Association of Nurs- erymen. SOUTHWESTERN NUBSERYMEN. Elect Officers. At the closing session of its two days' meeting at Denison, Tex., Septem- ber 24 and 25, the Southwestern Asso- ciation of Nurserymen elected the fol- lowing officers: President: James Parker, Tecumseh, Okla. Vice-president: H. E. Cannon, Hen- derson, Tex. Secretary-treasurer: J. C. Boyd, Port Arthur, Tex. Executive committee: Will Munson, Denison, Tex., and George Baker, Fay- ette, Ark. Dallas was chosen as the meeting place for 1920, after Austin, Shreve- port and Oklahoma City had made strong bids for the convention. Interesting Addresses. In his address, President Wagner made suggestions to promote the nurs- ery business, stating that growers when selling young plants sometimes failed to instruct purchasers in the mat- ter of caring for the products and that as a result the purchaser was unfor- tunate in his treatment of his trees and other plants, the result of which was an injury to the nursery business. J. B. Baker, of Fort Worth, furnished some interesting data on the growing PEONIES We offer only a few varieties, selected from the many commercial Tarieties on the market, as being especially valuable for cutting, for habit of growth and for free flowering.

U Salle St. CHICAGO, ILL. 100 The Florists^ Review OCTOBKE 2. 1919- of evergreens and the need for the wholesale production of them in the southwest. Bemarks by J. R. Mayhew, on "Laws and Appropriations for Regulating the Nursery and Orchard Business," brought about considerable discussion regarding the present work of the state officials, first from the nurseryman's point of view and later from the in- spector's side of the question. State Inspection Criticized. It was finally agreed that the force of six inspectors for the state of Texas was entirely insufficient for the amount of work needed, and it was suggested by several members that more assist- ance be asked of the state, while still other members regarded inspection by the state as unnecessary and unenlight- ening and, above all, a useless expendi- ture of state funds. John S. Kerr, of Sherman, made an interesting talk regarding the upbuild- ing of the business, condemning the act . of destroying certain varieties of plants condemned by state inspectors, and urged nurserymen to test and experi- ment with the various diseases of their products and to eliminate the disease but not the plant. A plant destroyed is a loss to the whole community, but a disease that is analyzed and eliminated is a step in progress beneficial to the nurseryman, the state and the whole nation, according to Mr. Kerr. Other addresses of much interest were given, according to the program printed in last week's report in The Review. Committees Appointed. James Parker, J, B. Baker and John S. Kerr were appointed to serve on the committee of resolutions, and E. W. Kirkpatrick, W. C. Griffing and C. E. Stephens on the nominations committee. Before adjournment the following committees were appointed: Transpor- tation, W. C. Griffing, C. C. Mayhew, Ben Davis, N. M. Scheid and J. L. Downing. Legislative: J. R. Mayhew, J. M. Ramsey, James Parker, J. T. Foote, George Parker and John S. Kerr. Transportation Not Improved. R. G. Piner, of Sherman, Tex., ad- dressed the meeting on transportation matters, which, he said, would not be improved this year. He suggested to the nurserymen that they prepare for delays, but urged them to take up the matter of their shipments with agents and representatives of railroads to show them the importance of nursery shipments, as they were classed as perishable goods. A resolution was passed placing the convention on record as being opposed to the employment by states of orchard inspectors who were owners or em- ployees of any nursery business. According to the meeting, not enough attention is given the growing of peren- nials and various species of shrubbery by the nurserymen over the country, and all were urged to give this more attention as a matter of civic pride and beautification. The Attendance. There was a good attendance of nurs- erymen at the meeting. Among them the following were noted: "W. A. Wag- ner, Sherman; L. J. Tackett, Austin; J. E. Price, Pilot Point; E. M.

The social season is getting into swing considerably earlier than has been the case for a number of years, with the result that the demand for cut flowers is better than usual for this time of year. Seldom have there been so many weddings, teas, receptions, dances, etc., scheduled for October as are already on the cards, and the early prophecies of a busy social season are being substan- tially verified. With the increasing demand, the sup- ply has also shown an improvement, and the advent of the chrysanthemums is helping the situation materially. Car- nations are scarcer than usual, but the growers say a large supply is in sight for early cutting. Roses are arriving in good shape, while the last of the asters continue to piece out. Cactus dahlias have taken a firm stand for pop- ularity and will undoubtedly be a prom- inent factor next fall. Various Notes. Lawrence Hay was one of the judges at the second annual exhibition of the school garden clubs at Rumford last week. The extensive dahlia gardens of George L. Stillman on the Watch Hill road, at Westerly, covering several acres, are attracting much attention. Charles Smith, of the Eastern Wire Wreath Co., returned last week from a successful business trip through the middle west. Mr. Anderson, representing A. N, Pearson, of Cromwell, Conn., was a busi- ness visitor in this city last week. William Doel, of Pascoag, was in the city September 27, securing supplies. Included in the list of taxpayers in Cranston assessed on $10,000 or more, according to the valuation just filed, are DAHLIAS 10 acres of Dahlias in 200 choicest varieties, now in bloom, at $2.00, $3.00, $4.00, $5.00 and $6.00 per 100 Less in lots of 1000.

With the coming of cool nights the outdoor stock is shortening up; in fact, gladioli and asters are greatly on the short side. Good gladioli are now $5 per hundred, and the best asters $2 per hundred. Dahlias, larkspur, cosmos and the African and French marigolds are at their best now. Chinese woolflowers are a pleasing novelty and a worthy addition to the outdoor family of flowers when the cen- ter flower is disbudded and the side shoots are allowed to mature. This treatment makes the flowers more nearly the size that is best suited to basket and bouquet work. Various Notes. Otto Cron, Monroe, Mich., was. in this city last week, making arrangements for stock for the coming season. Will Krueger is cutting some fine Belladonna larkspur, in addition to a good crop of Ophelia roses. His pom- pons look fine and will soon be ready. Miss Frieda Volk, with Mrs. J. B. Freeman, is back from her vacation, spent with her sister at Evanston, 111. The windows of the Helmar Flower Shop always show the skill and good taste of Miss Josephine Helmar; at present they have tritomas looming up as a central feature. Feniger's House of Flowers is head- quarters for fine gladioli, which Mr. Fcnigcr is wholesaling to the trade. Always quick to take advantage of a scarcity of stock, he adds considerable to his profits by wholesaling to others. Peck's Flower Shop received a large share of funeral work last week and re- ports business as being ahead of last year at this time. H. E. K. Growers of vegetables under glass have had a prosperous year here and expect another. Fred Einkcr has put up an addition of fifteen houses, in which lettuce is growing. This firm has put up eighteen houses 400 feet in length for Hoeklinger Bros, and ex- pects to erect seven for Uffmann & Sons, at Eagle Point. BUY NOW Extra Peppers 4-in. 5-in. fi-in.

Greenhouse Heating SuBSCRiBEKS are invited to write the Editor of this Department with regard to any details of greenhouse heating that are not understood. When infor- mation is desired regarding the capacity of boilers, or the amount of radiation required for a greenhouse, the needed temperatures should be stated in the inquiry, as well as the amount of glass in til* side walls,- and the dimensions and general arrangement of the green- houses. It is often helpful, also, to have a sketch showing the location of the houses. COAL COST TO DOUBLE? A large number of growers have ended their interest in coal market rumors by filling their bins with fuel enough to meet the season's requirements, but there are still a good many who find cause for anxiety in the report of a 100 per cent increase in the price of coal. The present cost of coal to the con- sumer will be doubled if demands formu- lated by the United Mine Workers are allowed, a statement issued last week by the National Coal Association declared. The estimate of the effects of the de- mands of the miners said they would add a billion dollars to the cost of coal during the coming year. "The miners have announced tbeir intention of striking November 1 unless their demands are granted, and that is what their demands mean, in dollars and cents," the statement says. A 6-hour day, the statement continues, means approximately five hours in the working places, while the 5-day week on that basis means an actual reduction from forty-eight hours a week, the pres- ent schedule, to about twenty-five hours a week. "On top of this they demand a sixty per cent increase in wages," the state- ment says. ' ' The effect of these de- mands, if granted, would be to almost double the present cost of mining coal." PIPING SEVEN HOUSES. We have two houses 25x100, three 20x100, one 20x50 and one 10x50 feet. Please let us know what size of flow and return pipes are needed to heat these houses to 60 degrees in zero weather. The top of the boilers is five feet below the floor of the houses. L. A. E. & S.— O. The inquiry does not indicate whether ior not there is any glass in the walls, or whether steam or hot water will be used for heating the houses. The cost of installing a steam heating system will be considerably less than for a hot water system. On the other hand^ a marked saving both in the amount of coal used and in the work of firing may be ob- tained by using hot water. To heat the houses to 60 degrees with steam, we should arrange the piping as follows: For the houses 25x100, we should use one 2%-inch flow pipe and ten 1%-inch returns; for the houses 20x100, one 2%-inch flow and eight 1%- inch returns; for the house 20x50, one 2-inch flow pipe and eight 1^4 -inch re- turns, and for the house 10x50, one 1%- inch flow and four returns. To heat these houses with hot water, we should use the following amount of radiation: For houses 25x100, three 2%- ■ □■DHDaaBaBDBDBDHDHaHDBOBDH : KROESCHELL : ■ GREENHOUSE SPECIALTIES " D D D D D NOT asT IRiN NOT asT IRON Made in 20 Sizes HEATING and COOLING are two branches of engineering on which we specialise for the greenhouse trade.

If there is glass in the side walls, use an additional return for each thirty inches of glass. Wi:en only one flow pipe is used, it should be under the ridge, as should the third flow pipe in the wider houses. Place the other flow pipes upon the plates, in all cases giving them a slight fall. We are not informed regarding the p.i}mbej of benches in the different houses. As a rule, we think it well to run two or three returns under each of the middle benches, with the others on the side walls or under the side benches, but we should have a majority of the returns on or near the side wall, espe- cially if these walls contain exposed glass. HEATING HOUSE AND LEAN-TO. Please give me information concern- ing the piping of a greenhouse and lean-to. The house is 18x70 feet and six feet high; the lean-to is 10x60 feet. The heating will be by hot water, using a HoUiday boiler with a grate 20x40 inches. The temperature required is 50 degrees in zero weather. I have 1%- inch pipe which I should like to use for returns. F. G. E. — Wash, If there is no glass in the exposed walls of these greenhouses, we should use for the wide house two 2^-inch flow pipes and seven returns. In the lean-to one flow and five returns will be suffi- cient. If there is, exposed glass in the walls, use a"n additional return for every twenty-four inches of glass. We have had no experience with the boiler mentioned, but judging from the size of the grate it should have capacity for heating fifty to 100 per cent more radiation than will be required for these houses, in the comparatively mild cli- mate of southern Washington. PIPING A SMALL HOUSE. I am erecting a small greenhouse and should like to know the best way to pipe it and the size of boiler needed for hot water heat. I am thinking of purchas- ing a boiler manufactured by Giblin & Co. It will be one of their No. 20 series of standard hot water boilers and the size will be according to the radiation needed. The greenhouse will be 20x50, run- ning north and south, with walls five feet high. The west wall will be of wood and the east wall will have two feet of glass and three feet of wood. The north end will be of wood and will be built against the boiler and potting room. The south end wall will have three feet of wood and the rest glass. I desire to grow general bedding plants and estimate that 60 degrees of heat will be needed in zero weather. C. W. P.— N. Y. About 450 square feet of hot water radiation will be needed for the house 20x50 in order to maintain 60 degrees. We would suggest using three 2-inch pipes, running one upon each wall plate and the other two feet below the ridge. Tor returns we would use four 2-inch pipes under the bench on the side where there is glass in the wall and three pipes under the other side bench. Drop the Get Your Banker's Advice Giblin ^.: Heaters s UPPOSE every morning during the cold season you entered your green- house, you found three nice, clean, new ONE DOLLAR BILLS on the bench, and these were yours for keeps. HOW WOULD YOU FEEL? The cold season would probably have 150 mornings. THEN you would have 450 nice ONE DOLLAR BILLS, $450.00. DO YOU WANT THEM? Listen! Manufacturers of other Greenhouse Boilers admit that $5.00 per day per ten thousand feet of glass heated to 60 degrees in zero weather is a reasonable fuel cost under present coal prices. WHAT IS YOUR FUEL COST? WE SAY it ought to be $2.50 per day and can prove that fuel for our boilers costs but this amount. IF YOU use another boiler and have 12.000 square feet of glass, your cost per day is probably $(>.00. Change to our boiler and your cost per day will probably be $S.O0, so 150 days will give you the $450.00. Again we say: DO YOU WANT THEM? WHY the difference? It's in the CONSTRUCTION and draft travel. Besides, you cut out the NIGHT WATCHMAN aud save his WAGES. Do you want to save $100.00 on the FIRST cost of a boiler, or $450.00 EVERY YEAR? Do you doubt these statements? Let us tell you the facts, figures, names and places. Giblin & Company 509 Broad St. UTICA, N.Y. MAKERS OF GREENHOUSE BOILERS October 2, 1919.

We have just completed two houses, each 21x95, heated with hot water. The foreman furnished by the company from whom we purchased the houses, sloped the gutters so that all the water runs to the service building. Wc objected and wanted the gutters sloped so that the drainage would be in the other direc- tion, as that was the way the ground sloped, but he insisted that all houses heated with hot water should slope to- ward the service building, and that is the way he put the house up. Other greenhouse men tell us that we were right and the foreman wrong. M. E. C— Kan. In the days when 4-inch cast-iron pipe was used in heating greenhouses with hot water, it was considered advisable to run the flow pipes uphill and to place the returns underneath with the same slope toward the boiler, and it was then i!iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiMiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiniiig yfltftf Afffrf Points the I SYSXEIM Economy of Fuel m EOIN NOW to find ont about the "Morehead" System.

Moreover, on some accounts this is objectionable. In determining which way to grade the house, we should disregard all consider- ation of the heating pipes in a house less than 100 feet in length and take into account only the natural slope of the land and the simplest way of carrying off the water from the gutters. We should not consider sloping the gutters toward the service building a particu- larly serious error, but if a drain could have been provided to carry the water from the other end of the house without materially increasing the grading, we should have preferred to slope the house in the opposite direction. BUFFALO, N. Y. The Market. Last week there was a slight change for the better. Demand was steady and most of the supply moved to good ad- vantage. Most years have had frosts during the middle of September, which killed all outdoor stock, but as yet we enjoy comfortable weather, with no frost in sight. Outdoor stock is still holding out, to the disadvantage of in- door crops. As long as there are plenty of asters, gladioli, calendulas, cosmos and a few others, the price of roses will remain low. Carnations of fair quality are being cut. The supply of these is small and they bring as high as $4 per hundred. The carnation has so many admirers that if the supply is low it will bring a good price, no matter how nuich of other stock there is. During the week some white and yellow chrys- anthemums arrived. They were cer- tainly of extra quality for early mums. The F. T. D. Convention. The Iroquois hotel has been selected a9 headquarters for the F. T. D. conven- tion, which will take place here October 14 and 15. This is one of the finest ho- tels in the state. It has spacious quar- ters for meetings of large gatherings, such as are expected on this occasion. Kobody who can get off should stay away. Matters of great importance to the welfare of even the smallest florist will be taken up, and everyone who wants to do better business next winter should not fail to be on hand both days. They will be well spent. It is a wise man who knows that he does not know it all. The Buffalo Florists' Club bids you welcome! Vaxious Notes. State health officials report that they feel confident there will be no return of the influenza epidemic in the state this year, and point to the fact that as yet there are but twenty-four cases in the state. During the week there has been much talk about the possible miners' strike on account of the conference here. The prevailing belief is that those who have not their coal for tlic winter should watch out. The price may soar to around $20. J. W.

Mr. Newell is more ftian ever pleased with his new location. Miss Mary Hayden, of Samuel Mur- ray's, has returned from a five weeks' vacation, part of which was spent at her home in Wisconsin. She also spent a week in Chicago and some time at the lakes. This is the first real rest Miss Hayden has had in two years. Miss Mamie Cline, of Arthur New- ell's, is on her vacation. Fred Horst, who was formerly with Arthur Newell and who was to have returned to his position this month, has been advised by physicians to postpone the taking up of indoor work for a while. Mr. Horst was in the army and was gassed in the Argonne drive. He is at his home in Alabama and will re- main there for the present. Among the visitors in the city last week were: Mr, and Mrs. J. D.

Weather conditions were quite favor- able last week, which was bright and warm. Outside flowers are holding out well. Indoor stock is now coming on rapidly. Carnations are getting good stems and will soon be helpful in sup- plying the demand. Business has been good in all lines. Gladioli have been especially prof- itable this season, filling in where other- wise there would have been a scarcity. Gladiolus Mrs. Watt has been largely grown. America, the best variety for all purposes, appears to be scarce and in all probability will be even less plentiful later. Growers should plant all the bulblets possible. Good dahlias are to be had, also zin- nias, French marigolds, Buddleia mag- nifica. Hydrangea paniculata grandi- flora, and asters. Helianthus is just now making a fine showing. It is a gorgeous border plant, hardy and free. It also lasts well when cut. The department stores have com- menced sales of hardy plants and small shrubs, not to the same extent, how- ever, as when they were able to sell at lower prices. There is every prospect of a good demand this fall for shrubs and fruit trees. The mills, like other classes of work, are going at full pres- sure. In a short time the trade will have all it can take care of. Various Notes. Frank P. Putnam has been cutting carnations, in fine condition and with long stems, for the last two weeks. He has started putting in sand cuttings of Laddie taken from a large batch of the old plants. Mr. Parker, the fore- man, considers this variety a money- maker. Gloriosa is another variety they speak well of. Morse & Beals had their first con- signment of Golden Glow Saturday, September 20. They are getting in fine roses and report numerous funeral orders. Clayton Colby, bookkeeper of this firm, has returned from his vaca- tion. Louis Rmitli has gone into the vege- table business. He has planted his houses with tomatoes and lettuce and will grow cucumbers. Mrs. J. J. McManmon has been hav- ing a great deal of funeral work. Saturday, September 20, several large rush orders for funerals were received, which almost cleaned up cut stock.

Business last week was somewhat spasmodic, as some days the stores were extremely busy and other days decided- ly quiet. The supply of cut flowers has been short. Eoses have been in great- est supply, and have cleared well at from $3 to $15 per hundred. Carna- tions are becoming more plentiful, bet- ter in quality and higher in price. They range from $2 to $4 per hundred. Gladioli are becoming scarce and of in- ferior quality; nevertheless they clear easUy at $6 per hundred. Dahlias are more in evidence and are popular at $2 to $5 per hundred. Chrysanthemums are still rare. Now and then a dozen or so make their appearance. A few garden flowers are to be had, such as delphinium, snapdragon, cosmos, pansies, buddleias and zinnias. The only important offerings in the way of potted plants are Chatelaine begonias, ferns, rubber plants and pandanus. Various Notes. W. P. James has been quite ill for several days.

When you buy PERMANITE the answer will be at least three to four times the service that putty would give under like circumstances — and at less expense to you because PERMANITE goes farther, lasts longer and is far easier applied. They all say the new one-hand Permanite machine is a wonder; it works like lightning, requires but one hand and will last a lifetime; glazing positively done in less than half the usual time. PERMANITE not only gives better ser- vice and lasts longer, but saves you time and money as well. Yours for a tigl^t house, Hio Qarland Company Cleveland 0..V.5A Mention T)\e Rerlew when yon write.

I will book orders only on this condition, to be filled in rotation as booked and positively will not deviate from this rule. Ferns are very scarce and next season we will see one of the greatest scrambles for Ferns that you or I have ever seen. One who is wide awake to the situation can easily see ahead what the condition will be, therefore, we must adjust ourselves to the situa- tion. It will be unnecessary to write or wire to hurry an order, for will do the best that can be done. The better way is to place your order early and give ample time to fill said order, for FERNS MUST BE GROWN AND ARE NOT MOIJ)ED LIKE SO MANY CASTINGS. NEI- THER CAN THEY BE RAPIDLY INCREASED BY SEED OR CUTTINGS. BUT THE MATTER OF MULTIPLICATION IS SLOW, AND AS THAT IS CONTROLLED BY A LAW OF NA- TURE. MAN MUST ABIDE BY SAME. How- ever, we can help matters some by placing or- ders early with the grower and not wait until vou are ready to plant in bench or pot up, so BUY NOW for later delivery. Cash.

PANSIES PANSY PARK PERFECTION is a mixture of more than 50 thoroughbred varieties of Giant Show and fancy Pansies and includes the new varieties from American and European special- ists. I have received thousands of testimonials from florists and amateurs in all sections of the country. Many of my florist customers say that my Pansies are the best in all respects that they ever had. A few samples: From C. C. Wonne- man, Mexico, Mo.: "The Pansy plants arrived in best possible condition, were strong, sturd.v and well rooted. I have bought the best seeds and plants possible, but have never been able to pro- duce anything to equal yours. I have bought from you for the past 12 years and have never seen such a variety of colors." From Gude Bros. Co., Washington, D. C: "The Pansy plants re- ceived from you last fall were entirely satisfac- tory in every particular. We shall probably want .""lOOO or 10,000 in the near future." From Harry W. Stewart, Rhinebeck, N. Y. : "Send me 5000 of your Pansy Park Perfection Pansy plants. I saw a house of them last winter and they were the finest I ever saw." I have the largest stock of hardy field-grown plants for the wholesale trade in Ameri<'a. They were grown from seed sown thinly in light sandy soil broadcast and they have extra good roots.

The Florists^ Review Waterproof Crepe Paper Genuine Papyrus Paper Waterproof Strong Tough GENUINE PAPYRUS PAPER— the toughest, strongest Crepe on the mar- ket—absolutely waterproof. Does away with all the trouble generally experienced with Crepe papers — will not disintegrate when wet; colors will not run. A fortunate buy of genuine Papyrus paper enables us to meet all your demands and at a big saving to you. Only by actual trial can you prove the superiority of Papyrus — make the waterproof experiment shown here, then try it on some other "just-as-good" grade. Make the other ex- periment of stretch- ing. You will find Papyrus Crepe Paper by far the longest in actual trial. It will convince you more readily than anything we can say. You can get Papyrus in the following colors: Red, Nile green, moss green, pink, ' Ufender, yellow, blue and white. Place your order for Papyrus at our sale price quoted here. It's one of the most attractive offers we ever made. Hold a piece of Papyrus in the shape of a bag as shown above; pour water into it. You will find it will not leak a drop, even after fifteen or twenty minutes. In fact, it will not become the least damp on the outside. • Take one length of Papyrus paper that contains ten feet, and a length of some other Crepe paper that contains fourteen feet. Stretch them both to their fullest length and you will find the Papyrus paper three to four feet longer. Price, per roll, each 40c In 100-roll lots, each 35c A. L. Randall Company 180 N.

WERTHEIMER BROTHERS THE NATIONAL FLORAL RIBBON HOUSE Ownen and Operators of WERBRO RIBBON MFG. CO.. Paterson. N. J. Office and Salesroom, 19-25 Cast 24th Street, NEW YORK FORTUNATE FLORISTS FACE FINE FUTURE Nezv season starts with every promise of many months of continuous prosperity, with the highest rewards for those able to maintain a maximum production of good quality stock. Not higher prices, but an increased output of first-class plants and flowers is ivhat the trade needs to make business boom. ^s=^^^|BADE opinion has swung Tlike a pendulum, forward and back, illustrating in a way the operation of one * ^ of Newton's well known IV.^ "laws." Yes, the Newton ^■■v who discovered gravity — • • P^ t*i6 rule that what goes up ^si^^sJl must come down — but this illustration is his law of opposite and equal reactions. From be- lieving that last season's unexampled prosperity was impossible of duplica- tion, opinion swung, about the time of the S. A. F. convention, to the idea that 'this season would beat last season, but now opinion is swinging back to the middle ground. The sanguine view has been affected by the fact that, in the principal cut flower markets of the country, October has started with average prices below those of last year. Values Must Be Maintained. It is a curious fact that in this trade nearly everybody seems best satisfied when stock is scarce and orders diflScult to fill. Retailers as a class did not sub- scribe to that view prior to last season, but they were the loudest protestants when last spring 's inevitable glut threw roses onto the bargain counters of the department stores. Then and vocifer- ously they asserted their wish for the maintenance of wholesale prices we once would have called high. But it is not for the best interests of the florists' business that high prices put flowers out of reach of all except a few; nor should florists wish to see condi- tions which lead to the in- creased use of artificial material in funeral and other work. What we all should wish to see is a broad demand to consume a large production and the adoption of business methods in the trade to assure us that our work and risk will not be without commensurate re- ward. Although the pendulum of trade opinion recently has swung backward from the point of highest optimism, there is no reason to believe th'at the present season will be otherwise than extremely active. Indeed, there is every assurance that there will be the broadest general demand for flowers ever known. Absolutely the only unfavorable fac- tor is the unrest growing out of the con- tinued rise of prices and the disturbances caused by labor. Every florist knows, usually from experience, that no matter who gains from a strike, it spells nothing but loss for him. Work Will Win. The health authorities and the medical profession have been warning the public of a recurrence of the flu. Most happily, their forebodings have not come true; there is nothing as yet approaching an epidemic and we shall not need it to make business good^ The use of flowers at funerals has increased and the aver- age size of the sale has risen, for a well defined reason: First, flowers say perfectly what the average person can- not at such a tipie express in words, with the result that both the quantity of funeral flowers and their value in- crease in proportion to the purchasing iiity of the people. There are several sound reasons why the flower business will increase and, if LET'S ALL GO TO WORK IFrom a Trade Paper Advertiaement.] One hundred million Americans are singing the Anvil Chorus. Put your ear to the ground and you will hear it plainly. The first stanza, repeated three times, is We Want More Wages! About ten million people are singing that stanza. Then comes another line, sung mostly by the pro- fessional leaders of organized labor, We Want Shorter Hours! Then comes a great booming swell of sound from the united voices of a hundred million people giving back the response — We Want Lower Prices! And then comes one voice of the war-torn Wi rngle voice- 7or\d — -the sad soprano Need More Production! properly managed, prosper: We all know that the use of flowers has in- creased continuously from the begin- ning. The rapidity of the increase has depended on the supply and on the pub- lie 's means to purchase. Last year the people had the means, but the supply was so inadequate that many went with- out. It is estimated that in 1914 the money in circulation in the United States was $23 per capita, while in 1919 there is $55 of money in circulation for every man, woman and child. The re- striction of production because of labor scarcity is the only thing which will keep people from gratifying a desire for flowers. . To Make New Buyers. One of the greatest merits of the trade's slogan, "Say It with Flowers," lies in its appeal to all classes. He is a short-sighted florist who does not see that the slogan is kept before his com- munity. To it we owe the development of thousands of new flower buyers. Take the case of two friendly families of the large non-flowcr-buying class. In one, a death occurs. The other feels the need of action, but lacks the power of expres- sion. "Say It with Flow- ers." "The very thing!" The message gives consola- tion to one, satisfaction to the other, and two new flow- er-buying families are added to the nearest florist's list. It is only a step from sending flowers or receiving flowers to buying them for oneself. This season we have working for us the greater appreciation of flowers, the increased ability to buy them, growth in the popu- lation, the resumption of social activity and the re- laxation of patriotic econ- omies after the war. Against these factors for better business than last season there is only one off- set, a death rate reduced to normal. And there is no marked increase in produc- tion of stock. The scarcity and cost of labor is the chief reason why production has not in- creased. It is true that greenJiOuse building^jen at high'*c'08t, has been heavy this summer, but the new glass scarcely offsets the de- 16 The Florists^ Review OCTOBBR 9, 1919. . terioration in the producing capacity of the old houses^ all more or less neglected for the last two or three years. Taking the country over, it is probable that this season's buUding lit- tle if any more than replaces the glass that was dismantled during the war. Many old houses have deteriorated* to the point that continued operation scarcely is worth while, dilapidation our British friends call it. Team Work Is Needed. And glass is not all there is to produc- tion: We need men, materials and time. There has not been enough of either of these to overcome the depletion caused by the war and by last season's big sell- ing. And then there is the quarantine. It has been impossible to restore and re- stock all the houses that were emptied in 1918. From present indications they can not be restocked before autumn of 1920; not then if demand and the labor situation do not change. The Eeview this week received from the War Industries Board at Washing- ton an address to the public which shows wherein the continuance of our trade prosperity lies, as well as that of the people. "Team work is imperative," says the board. "It is just as essential between retailer, wholesaler and pro- ducer as it is between employer and em- ployee. One group of producers cannot wait on another group. Work, Save, Cooperate, Produce. "On American business rests a grave responsibility for efficient cooperation in bringing about full and proportionate production. On American labor rests an equally grave responsibility to attain maximum unit production and maintain uninterrupted distribution of goods if labor itself is not to suffer from further rises in the cost of living. "The entire nation — producer, dis- tributor and consumer alike — should re- tui^n to the unity that won the war. Group interest and undue personal gain must give way to the good of the whole nation if the situation is to be squarely met. "Our common duty now, fully as much as in the war, is to work and to save. In the words of the President in his address to the country August 25, 1919, only 'by increasing production and by rigid economy and saving on the part of the people, can we hope for large de- creases in the burdensome cost of living which now weighs us down.' "Work, save, cooperate, produce." LILY BULBS GO DOWN Ii«?ifa?ifi8?ii^tir?8\irysvihrsvir?stitysviry8vifrsiRiryaviry8tiry8\irysvir/svirirsvir/svir?svir?8viri^^ "When in New York," recently ob- served Walter Lawrence, of the Law- rence Floral Co., Atlanta, Ga., "I paid a visit to the Twenty-eighth street flow- er market and was struck by the dif- ferent methods pursued by the whole- saler or commission man, in contrast with all other eastern markets and our western depot, Chicago. The seeming objection to packing for out of town can only be explained in the demand for goods ready on the spot and wrapped only. Immense quantities of stock go out in this manner and it would not sur- j)rise me if someone rented a packing house for the sole purpose of shipping." Alex Scott, 'of the Dahl Greenhouses, Atlanta, Ga., said, "A big factor is this red clay soil, in which any plant will grow. Take carnations, for example. This soil has not been renewed for five years and has been fertilized only with rotted horse manure and bone meal. \vhile we should prefer sheep manure and tankage, the plants certainly look equal to the finest northern grown. Cot- tonseed meal has been tried as a fer- tilizer. It is excellent for foliage plants, but not for anything blooming or of an excitable nature. Carnations are never planted outdoors and, when stock is purchased from the north, it is preferred as late as possible, for, fol- lowing a brief check, the plants seem to spring up in this red soil." A. J. Koenig, Birmingham, Ala., de- lights to recall the time when, as a grower for Ernest Asmus, of Hoboken, N. J., he with others went among the residents and purchased their lilac bushes by the wagonload and forced them for the New York market. Hugh Scales, of the Scales Floral Co., Biniiingliam, Ala., holding a letter with returned check in his hand, observed that he never saw the time when snap- dragons were snapped up as they are just now, so popular is the flower as a substitute for carnations. There are more planters then raisers. "Immedi- ately upon receiving The Review, we mailed orders to those advertising, but ne'er a 'snap' could we get." Parker's Drug Store, Birmingham, Ala., has an electric transparent sign, "Say It with Flowers," that is seen from afar. ' ' Watch your step" is now the slogan of Thomas Joy, Jr., of the Joy Floral Co., Nashville, Tenn., which is made defendant in a damage suit for $17,500 as compensation for injuries claimed to have been sustained by a lady customer who in June last slipped upon the oiled floor and fell. It is counterclaimed that no complaint of injury was made at the time, and this published infor- mation comes as a surprise. September 27 nearly 100 designs went to the fu- neral of a prominent local citizen, and, taking into consideration the scarcity of flowers, the fact that no two pieces were alike spoke well for the designers. The simplest and prettiest piece was a cross made with Dahlia Delice and adiantum. At the greenhouses stock is in its usually fine shape, which is especially notable considering the set- back of the hail storm in June; 800 boxes of glass were used in repairing, and the end is not yet, as a new Mon- inger house takes th» plate of two 6f the old ones. October 9, 1919. The Florists^ Review 19 FltOWERINQ FOB MARKET. Shipments Here Now. Shipments of Dutch bulbs are now heavy and florists will shortly be re- ceiving their orders. The supply is not large this year, according to reports, and those who have good stock next winter will command good prices for them. Bulbous flowers are highly pop- ular and the absence of other flowering plants will make the call for them great- er this year. Bulbs can be grown in flats, pans and pots, and certain narcissi and all the hyacinths can be grown in water. Usu- ally flats are used to grow bulbs for cutting, and pots and pans are the re- ceptacles to sell them in as flowering plants. Tulips are most valuable in pots and pans, while narcissi have a much greater sale for cutting. Hjyacinths have a somewhat limited sale as cut flowers, but sell tolerably well in pots and pans. Tulips. Among the early tulips La Reine re- mains the most popular of all. If ex- posed to light it comes a beautiful pink color in winter, but it may also be had pure white by keeping it in darkness. White Hawk is an excellent sort, always pure white in color and early. For a late white White Swan is good. In yellows Yellow Prince forces well. Mon Tresor and Chryaolora are good in pans. Thomas Moore, a sweet-scented orange, meets with a good sale. Keizerskroon, red and yellow, makes a fine pan, but it has a limited sale as a cut flower. Rose Luisante, deep rose, is a good sel- ler; so is Flamingo. Cottage Maid is a good rose-pink. The finest in this shade of color for pans is Pink Beauty, of a glowing rose-pink color. There is a limited call for scarlets. Of this shade Vermilion Brilliant and Belle Alliance are both good forcers. Coming to early double tulips, Murillo is the best of all, being splendid for cuttings and unbeatable in pans. Brim- stone Beauty, also called Safrano, pale yellow, shaded apricot, and Couronne d'Or, or Crown of Gold, deep golden yellow, are other fine varieties. Darwin tulips should not be over- looked. You cannot flower these as early as the kinds already named, but the Darwin section gives large flowers on wonderful stems and affords a fine range of colors. They are splendid in flats and fine in 8-inch to 10-inch pans. To those who have not yet tried Darwins I would suggest that they plant Pride of Haarlem, William Copeland, Glow, Gretchen, Clara Butt and Massachusetts, as a trial. NardssL The most popular narcissi for forcing are Trumpet major, also called Single Von Sion; Golden Spur, Double Von Sion and Victoria. The last-named is best of all for pan culture. The double narcissi are less popular than they were, and this is not surprising. Double Von Sion has nothing in the way of beauty to recommend it. It is a good shipper and will stand rough handling, which are desirable qualities in all commercial flowers, but it has little beauty when compared with the singles. The quar- tette named are the leaders of their kind, but there are several others which the country florists should grow. Among these are Silver Spur, which resembles Empress, but flowers as early as Golden Spur; poeticus ornatus, Campernelle rugulosus. Emperor, Sir Watkin and Mrs. Langtry. There are short trumpet vari- eties in this latter list, but all make good market and retail varieties. Hyacinths. For cutting, the miniature or baby Dutch hyacinths are the best. La Grandesse, pure white; Gertrude, pink; Queen of the Blues, light blue, and King of the Blues, dark blue, are good varie- ties. Larger-sized bulbs of these varie- ties can be grown in pots or pans. Ad- ditional good sorts are: L 'Innocence, white; gigantea, rose; Grand Maitre, sky "blue. Do not entirely cover the hyacinth bulbs with soil; leave the nose of the bulb just peeping above the surface. PIiANTINO BULBS OUTDOORS. Soil Preparation. In preparing bulb beds avoid using any fresh stable or cow manure. It will cause trouble every time. Let all ma- nure be well decomposed and mixed thoroughly with the soil. Break up all hard lumps and get the soil in as mel- low and well pulverized a condition as possible. This preparation pays in the long run. Bulbs in such a rooting medi- um always come more evenly and stead- ily than those in soil prepared in a haphazard way. Labor is scarce and I think customers would be willing to accept the most simple and at the same time the most pleasing arrangements, which means that beds of one color and variety, or clumps of one shade, should be planted, unless, perchance, a mixed bed of tulips is preferred, and such mixtures are really satisfactory. Tulips for Beddlni^. Tulips are the finest bulbs for bed- ding. Among the early whites, Joost Van Vondel, White Swan and White Perfection are all fine. The first named is the best of all. White Swan blooms just ahead of the cottage and Darwin varieties. Chrysolora and Mon Tresor are splendid golden yellows. Prince of Austria is a good bedder. It is orange- red and sweetly scented. Keizerskroon but for its name would be more popular. It is the best of the red and yellow varieties and is always reliable. Cot- tage Maid does nicely for the pink beds. but Pink Beauty, while higher priced, is far ahead of all other pinks. In fact, it is in many respects the finest bedding tulip we have. Vermilion Brilliant is well described by its name. Sir Thomas Lipton is a superb, deep scarlet tulip. The foregoing are single varieties. None of the doubles are of much value for bedding. Late Tulips. Do not overlook the value of the late tulips for bedding. They grow taller than the early ones and are much more lasting. Beds of mixed varieties look well, but solid beds and clumps of one color are more satisfying. Clumps dot- ted in herbaceous borders are effective. They will flower far better the second and third season than the first. Try any of these Darwins: Clara Butt, Mme. Kre- lage, Gretchen, Rev. H. Ewbank, Farn- combe Sanders, Glow, King Harold and Pride of Haarlem'. Many of these Dar- wins have come in for Alemorial day in former years and in this connection plantings of these May-flowering tulips will be found to be a good investment: Bouton d'Or, vitellina rctroflexa, Ges- neriana major, Gesneriana lutea, Pico- tee, Golden Crown and Inglescombe Pink. Hyacinths and Narcissi. Hyacinths and narcissi are of minor value for bedding as compared with tulips. Hyacinths have the advantage of flowering earlier, but their lasting qualities are not so good and they have a most unpleasant odor as they fade. The singles are much better than the doubles for bedding and one color to a bed is the best arrangement. If in early spring blue forget-me-nots or pansies are planted below white hya- cinths, white pansies below blue hya- cinths and yellow pansies below pink or red hyacinths, the effect is enhanced and when the hyacinth spikes are gone, there is a good ground cover to bloom until more tender plants are ready to take its place. If, instead of planting narcissi in beds, they are arranged in clumps or long, narrow bands along herbaceous borders, they look much more attrac- tive. Do not depend on the large trum- pet sorts only, for the medium and short trumpet sorts are more graceful and in nearly all oases more winter- hardy and persistent. The most re- liable of the large trumpet sorts are Victoria, Princeps, Emperor and Glory of Leiden. Don't Cover Till Frost. Do not cover over bulb beds until the ground is frozen hard. We want to keep the frost in the soil and not to exclude it. A thick covering of leaves or other mulch given while the ground is soft means that growths will continue to push and when fiipring comes many breakages will occur in removing the mulch. Another point to consider is (\-^ 20 The Florists^ Review OCTOBEB 9, 1919. that field mice will raise havoc with bulbs, especially tulips, if the soil is open below the winter covering. These rodents are difficult to fight in the win- ter, even when their presence has been detected. FALL PLANTING FOR PEONIES. Proper Time Is Now. The best season for planting the peony is in the fall, after the roots are well ripened. In this latitude, this occurs in most varieties after mid-Sep- tember, and is shown by the foliage becoming colored. Many nurserymen begin digging in August, but a glance at peonies then shows the foliage still quite fresh and green. The roots suffer from shriveling if dug and shipped while the weather is hot. Where fancy blooms are wanted, it will be well to excavate the proposed beds to a depth of two to two and a half feet and fill in with good loam which has been well worked and broken (not sifted) and mixed with three inches of well rotted stable manure. If only new manure is obtainable, it should be mixed well with the soil in bottom of trench up to within about fifteen inches of the surface, and applied lightly as a mulch on the surface after planting. In preparing beds do not put the manure in layers and let it remain so. The manure should be made as fine as possible and thoroughly mixed with the soil — not merely turned over. Care in Soil. Too much manure is often used for the peony's good, with the result that root decay sometimes sets in. Where the ground is fertile it is often wise to use no manure. Should one decide in spring or sum- mer to plant in fall, and only new ma- nure is obtainable, the bed may at once be made, and with a forking over every two weeks, ideal conditions will be had by fall. In the heat of summer, manure quickly disintegrates when handled thus. The object of the above is to give the roots abundant jilant food and yet pre- vent luniy)s of decaying manure from coming into direct contact with them, which might cause rot to set in. There is such a thing as getting the ground too rich for the peony. Probably the best soil for the peony is one which is neither too heavy with clay nor too light with sand, one which might be termed a heavy loam, and such as would make a good vegetable garden. Such a soil should be fairly retentive of moisture, and the peony, being a strong, quick grower, can absorb much water. Prepared by George R. Peterson, of Fair Lawn, V. 3. Never plant the peony in soil where peenies have grown before, or at least until quite a number of jj^rs have elapsed. Disregard of this "roll result in comparative or even complete failure. Planting the Roots. The roots should be set so that the upper eyes are about two to three inches beneath the surface of the soil, and, if planted in permanent beds, should be about two and a half to three and a half feet apart, according to the room at one's disposal. When planted in field for cut flower purposes, the plants should be set three to three and a half feet apart in the row, and the rows from four to five feet apart, or plant four by four to permit cross cultivation. No water need be applied when plant- ing is done in the fall. In the spring, after growths appear above ground and rains prove infrequent, copious water- ings will be helpful in promoting strong growth and producing large blooms. From the time buds begin to show color, care should be exercised to keep them and the open flowers as dry as possible, confining the water as much as possible to the ground. If the soil is fertile, plain water will be best to use, and if it is necessary to use manure water, apply in weak solu- tion. Blooms and Foliage. When cutting flowers, always leave at least two leaf stems on the stalk cut. It is best not to cut all of the flowers, as it is of vital importance that suffi- cient foliage be left on the plant all sum- mer to develop the eyes under ground for next season's growths. The plants will make no further top growth after the blooming season is over. Keep the ground about them stirred and free from weeds, and water need be applied only when the ground is • quite dry. Seed-pods and remains of flowers may be cut off, but do not under any circum- stances remove foliage until October. I repeat this since I have known people to cut off all foliage to the ground soon after the blooming season was over, and then next season wonder why they had little or no bloom. Wintering. So far as protection from cold is con- cerned, the peony does not need it in even the most severe climate. The first winter, the roots, being loose in the ground, will require a light protection (an inch or so) of strawy manure or other porous matwial. After this, if the ground has beeii;»ade deep and rich, as directed, I would^dvise withholding all manure and i»t)t|jpkion for several years, and, when it does again become neces- sary to fertilize, the manure should be broadcasted rather than placed directly over the crown of the plant. The latter method, study '^nd observation have shown me, often induces decay to set in. A heavy mulching, having to some extent the same effect as a deep plant- ing, will often be followed by blind growths, or buds which fail to develop. Diseases and Insects. The peony is practically immune from general diseases. See to it that you get healthy plants to begin with, and then you will have nothing to fear. If you obtain sickly-looking roots, it is usually because they were grown in soil where peonies had been grown before. Some growers, after digging and selling certain varieties, will propa- gate and replant each year the same va- rieties in the places where roots of the same kinds had been dug earlier in the season. In this way they may have 1, 2 and 3-year-old roots in the same row and save much ground space, but it is a poor practice. During a wet spring season some foli- age, buds, and even stems will rot, but unless the whole plant is affected (and this has practically never happened here among the many thousands of plants we grow yearly), one need not be unduly alarmed. The only insect which ever, even slightly, injures the peony is the rose chafer, which will sometimes be found eating the petals of the flower. With the exception of the later varieties, the peony is usually done blocming ere this pest appears, and so it would perhaps be wise, where the chafer is annually troublesome and one has no inclination to combat it, to emit the later sorts. The peony is, however, so very large, with dense petalage, that this bug. when it docs attack a flower, usuall'' buries itself in the petal*;; and does not dis- figure it as it does a rose or other 'lower. Ants, which arc often seen on the buds as they are developing, are there to gather a sweet, gum-like substance which the bud exudes. They do no harm to the coming flower nor to the plant, and will disappear on the opening of the flowers. Why Some Peonies Do Not Bloom. A peony root, whether large or small, recently transplanted, will usually throw up shoots more or less blind, or with small buds which fail to develop. This effect will also often be produced by deep planting or too heavy a mulching over winter. Occasionally severe late frosts, after the peonies are well above ground, will also destroy the coming blooms. This, however, has never happened to a seri- ous extent in this latitude during the many years I have been interested in peonies, but in some localities I have known this to destroy practically the entire crop, although it did not seriously affect subsequent growth of the plant for the season. Lack of moisture or fertility will also affect the blooming qualities of a plant. The peony requires much mois- ture during the few weeks preceding its blooming time. Afterward, having by June made its entire growth above October 9, 1919. The Florists^ Review 21 ground "rtri«vir/svirrs\ir/wri«>(iy4>iiy*\irysxir^^^^ 'LEST WE FORGET.' ' Last Summer's Lessons. The summer is now over, the harvest is ended, and, for the florist who had the forethought to study conditions — that is, the man who watched the mar- ket not only in his own city but all over the country — the harvest has been a bountiful one. During the last sum- mer the writer has made a careful study of the Baltimore market, has compared conditions there with those reported from other markets in the columns of The Review and found they were much the same all over the country; that while there were some dull times re- ported, yet, on the whole, last summer's business surpassed anything in history. I made it a point to visit the retail stores at regular intervals. Only once, about the middle of July, did I hear any complaints about the lack of business, but on every visit I heard complaints of the difficulty that was had to obtain first-class stock. One ,thing particularly that was noted was the fact that not once during the entire summer was there a glut of first-class stock. At the same time my visits to the wholesale houses were .lust as regular. And there the secret of the report one would so often hear of "business being at a standstill" was found out. One could find, at almost any time, masses of stock for which there was absolutely no demand, stock which at the end of the week would have to be sacrificed to the street men, or. worse still, sent to the dump. It is often the custom of the street fakers, in crying their wares, to remind the throng what they would be obliged to pay for the same articles in the retail stores, while, at the same time, these stores were paying twice as much as the faker was asking, for good stock of the same flowers, and often could not get them. Success in Select Stock For the legitimate florist, one who is particular in selecting his stock and will grow nothing but the best grade, there is a good market and one that will pay any man for his effort. In select- ing his stock, I would remind him that there are numbers who produce cut flowers as a by-product. Take hydran- geas for instance; the nurseryman can be depended upon for more than will be required. The same is true of phlox and many other such flowers. The truck growers will so flood the market with them that the regular grower will not have a chance, and I am firmly con- vinced that it will not pay any grower to devote his time and talents to this * class of stock. For strictly summer use there are three staples that are depended upon; " these are roses, gladioli and asters. These were the flowers for which there was the greatest demand and yet as many of them found their way to the dump, via the wholesale houses, as any other flowers. I can hear my readers saying this is all tearing down; the object of this article is just the reverse. Let's look into the question and see if we can 't build up. The important point ^ in building is to have a good foundation. What better foundation could you make than right now, when the last stfmmer is fresh in our minds, to plan for next summer? The progressive and success- ful farmer raises nothing but blooded stock. Just as true is it that the suc- cessful florist, in these times of com- petition, must grow nothing but quaJity stock. And another imporrant poim is, do not sacrifice quality for quantity. Always a Demand. To begin, let us look at roses. There was never a day during the last summer when good white roses were not in de- mand. The one I find most sought after on the market is Double White Killar- ney. And there were some growers who had them fine, even though it was mid- summer. Another one good as a sum- mer variety is Radiance. But we will not speak further of varieties; this can be left to the individual. The point I wish to make is, have good stock of such varieties as those mentioned. We will now take up gladioli. It is a common sight to see these being peddled about the streets and sold for a mere pittance. As one looks on conditions of this kind one cannot help thinking of the time and labor that have been wasted by the grower who got such inadequate retuirns for his stock. Had he devoted the same amount of energy to such va- rieties as Panama, America, Augusta, King, War and Peace, his returns would have been such that — well, he would have a deep respect for his business. Now, I do not wish to be understood as saying that the varieties mentioned are better than perhaps many others. I have noted them because I have had an opportunity to see these varieties often and merely want to make a standard. Now let us look at asters. Anyone who is much around wholesale houses knows what a heterogeneous mass of these the commission man has to deal with. Yet among it all you will, at times, see the product of some wise grower that is a pleasure to handle. I am told that year after year, as regu- larly as summer comes, the usual sup- ply of poor asters is bound to arrive, poor in color, poor in flower, stems and everything. There are good strains to be had. Why will a grower persist in growing year after year a crop that certainly, if he counts his time and the value of the room the plants take, is a losing proposition? Astermums are per- haps the most salable of the aster fam- ily, but for any good white, pink or purple there is always ready sale. Re- member the world is just now going through a period of reconstruction; this includes the florists' business. Your business will be just what you choose to make it in the next few years.

At the last meeting, September 30, of the Toledo Florists' Club, the object in view was that the rules to be made stronger, so that no one could break them. Frank Schramm, of Schramm Bros., and Mr^^rouse, of Mrs. J. B. Freeman's, madev^trong speeches in defense of closed Sunday. They ex- pressed the opinion of most of the trade.

J, J. Grullemans has become secretary and treasurer, devoting his entire time to the sales and business management of the company. E. H. Schultz continues president of the company and in charge of the growing. C. B. Gates, formerly secretary and treasurer, remains as vice- president, since other interests require his relinquishment of active duties. As a result of this combination, the Wayside Gardens have 100 acres of plants and bulbs. The stock is in fine condition. LAMBERT'S LOCALS. J. H. McGorrisk and LaVere Braucht, as the Art Floral Co., recently opened an elaborate store at 515 Grand avenue, Des Moines, la. The store is equipped with white and gray fixtures, made by a local firm, the Percville Eefrigerator Co. Mr. McGorrisk is a firm believer in publicity and dropped advertisements from an aeroplane over the city, giving away fifteen numbers for free bouquets. A new and well appointed store was opened September 20 at Ottumwa, la., by Eoy Kemble, the elder son of the proprietor of the Kemble Greenhouses, at Oskaloosa and other Iowa towns. Eoy Kemble has gone to Ottumwa to live and is building three greenhouses, 35x185 feet, in front of the most prominent cemetery. The houses are being constructed by the American Greenhouse Manufacturing Co. The store is fitted with the most modern fixtures, in walnut finish, by the Buch- bindcr Co. J. A. L. BOSTON. The Market. With the rapid passing of outdoor flowers, there is a decided and welcome improvement in cut flower trade. Sup- plies are not large and if there were much demand, a sharp advance in prices would be recorded. October 4, with many salesmen and retailers absent, owing to the keeping of Yom Kippur, business was good and there was a good call October 6. Although the weather has been quite mild, clear skies have been the exception and flowers have opened slowly. Eoses are moving much better and have advanced in price, particularly short-stemmed stock. The Killarneys, except Double White Killarney, are de- clining steadily in favor. The ruling favorites are Eussell, Ophelia, Premier, Columbia, Hadley, Miller, Maryland and Stanley. There is a fair supply of American Beauties and they are selling better. Chrysanthemums are not yet abundant and clean up satisfactorily. The bulk are Golden Glow, Smith's Ad- vance and Unaka. Small lots of in- ferior single violets are seen. Carna- tions are a little higher-priced and are all sold out without effort. Such asters as still arrive sell at 75 cents to $2 per hundred. Gladioli are in greatly reduced supply and have ad- vanced to between $5 and $8 per hun- dred. Calendulas and bachelor's but- tons are abundant, but sell slowly. Small lots of both yellow and white J. J. Grullemans. marguerites, bouvardias in several col- ors, dahlias, cosmos and helichrysums are coming in. Cattleyas are arriving a little more freely and sell at $15 to $18 per dozen. There is no Lilium longiflorum, but speciosum rubrum is in good supply. Lily of the valley continues scarce and gardenias arc now ])ractically nil. Cyc- lamens and Erica melanthera are the most recent additions to flowering plants and there is a good call for them. Various Notes. Owing to tht< fact that the original date for the next meeting of the Boston Florists' Association fell on the same evening as that of another organization in which many of the members are in- terested, it was decided to postpone the meeting of the association from October 6 to October 10, at the Parker House. At the Brockton fair, held Septem- ber 30 to October 3, there was a paid attendance of 215,000, although the ad- mittance fee was advanced to 75 cents. The leading winners in the commercial dahlia classes were John K. Alexander and William D. Hathaway. Mrs. David Gray, the Brockton retailer, had charge of the cut flower department. She had a finely arranged booth of- palms, ferns and other material. W. N. Craig judged cut flowers and Duncan Finlayaon the vegetables. October 2, known as Bos- ton day, the wholesale cut flower mar- kets were largely denuded of salesmen, the bulk of them having gone to enjoy New England 's leading fair. A. E. Hutson, salesman for W. H. Elliott, has returned from a monrh's va- cation at Marion, Mass. He is han- dling some good pot mums for Mr. Elliott and an excellent lot of Premier, Columbia, Ophelia, Hadley and Kaiserin roses. A. E. E. Koch, of Nobscot, is already in the market with a fine lot of yellow and white marguerites. He has cut out carnations and snapdragons and will specialize in stevias, of which he has a grand lot, and also in marguerites and calendulas. B. A. Snyder & Co. are receiving some extra fine cattleyas, roses and chrysan- themums. They report business as steadily improving. Mrs. Francis King, of Alma, Mich., president of the Woman's National Farm and Garden Association, was the leading speaker at a largely attended meeting of the association in Horticul- tural hall October 7. Mrs. Mary Elliot Hobbs, of the P^nglish Board of Agri- culture, was another speaker who made a fine impression. Some rare and valuable azaleas in- troduced by Wilson from western China were stolen from the Arnold Arboretum last week. From the care taken in se- lecting specially choice varieties, it is evident that the thieves well knew the value of what they were stealing. A large money reward has been offered by the arboretum authorities for informa- tion which will lead to the detection of the thieves, and every lover of horti- culture here hopes the culprits will be caught and summarily dealt with. W. S. Phelps, who has been operating the Edward Woods range at Lexington under lease for several years, has pur- chased the Walter L. Stone establish- ment at Grafton Center, near Worcester. He will s})ecialize in delphiniums under glass, carnations, freesias, callas and 24 The Horists^ Review October 9, 19ia. anemones. Mr. Woods will operate the Lexington greenhouses himself once more. C. T. Beasley & Co., of East Milton, have several houses planted with pansies and some of these are already starting to flower quite freely. This is the larg- est greenhouse pansy establishment in New England. Henry M. Eobinson & Co. report busi- ness as improving satisfactorily. Ship- ping trade at present is especially good. Professor J. G. Jack will lecture at the next meeting of the Gardeners' and Florists' Club, which comes October 21. There will be a display of chrysanthe- mums and fruit on the exhibit table. There is no change in Boston's police strike. The military are in charge and may remain in control until next spring, by which time it is expected that a new police force can be secured and trained to displace them. Under military rule, Boston has fewer crimes than ever and traflic was never so well regulated. The committee on prizes and exhibi- tions of the Massachusetts Horticul- tural Society met October 6 and com- pleted the preparation of the 1920 schedule, including apportioning $1,000 worth of prizes offered by Miss, M. E. Case. The complete schedule for 1920 will soon be issued. W. N. C. NASHVILLE, TENN. The Market. Two weeks have seen considerable change for the better in this market. The colleges and schools are all open now and this naturally has brought in- creased business. Eoses are on the short side at present, though what there are show good qual- ity. Carnations, on the other hand, are coming in freely and are of excellent quality for the time of year. In fact, Nashville always gets plenty of good carnations before they appear in the north. Local gladioli are not numer- ous, though a few excellent ones are coming in. Dahlias are scarce, more than ever before at this time of year. What there are show poor quality. I have not seen cosmos this fall, due to the extreme drought of the summer. Some plants of a new hybrid rudbeckia, or coneflower, sent out by the Depart- ment of Agriculture, carrying flowers resembling a large yellow cosmos and borne on stems at least two feet long, in large loose panicles, look as if it should be a valuable cut flower as well as a wonderfully effective border plant. Chrysanthemums will not be in for another week or two, unless the short- age of flowers demands that they be cut prematurely. The stock generally is looking good, though there will not be so much of it this year as there was two and three years ago. I was interested to see some Chinese woolflowers last week doing duty as cut flowers. They worked up quite well in designs as well as in some of the bouquet work. They grow so easily that there is no reason why every grower may not have all he can make use of at little cost. Why is this flower not more widely grown as a pot plant for Christmas! The color is just right for a Christmas flower. Various Notes. Haury & Sons have been repairing theii* houses, including the installation of a new smokestack for their heating plant. They have a good lot of mums ready for cutting. Geny Bros, made a nice display of bulbs last week and sales were good. They were selling some oi the best May gladioli I have ever seen grown here. They report that they have been sold up closely, all of the time for the last two weeks. William Eeid, of the A. L. Eandall Co., Chicago., spent the week-end in the city, leaving Monday. Mr. Harrison, who ha*,be^n in charge of the Joy Floral Co. store in Chatta- nooga most of the time since it opened, is home again. He will remain in the store in this city for the present. Floyd Bralliar recently planted some thirty new varieties of iris to be used in his iris breeding work. Charles Tritchler is working up a large stock of his new fern, a sport of Verona. This fern is a winner, stronger and more rapid in growth than the old Boston, fully as resistant to injury by wind and sun as any other fern and as beautifully laced as Verona. Mclntyre Bros, are beginning to cut some decidedly good orchids. Their roses are also coming in nicely now. F. B. BALTIMORE. The Maxket. The market last week was in good condition. There was a good demand for first-class stock and the supply was sufficient to meet all requirements. Eoses are getting better each week, and the advance crop assures a fine supply of all varieties this winter. Chrysan- themums are beginning to arrive in fine shape; of course only the earlier varie- ties are to be seen as yet, but these are all first-class, and from visits that I have made recently to a number of growers I do not think there will be any fault found with this season's crop. I mean by this that there will be a large number of varieties to select from, and it will be possible to get them in any size from the large exhibition flowers down to the smallest size that is handled. As I write this the dahlia has full control of the market, and I think more of them are being handled this year than ever before. There is some com- plaint that they wither prematurely; this may be due to the fact that they are bred so fine, to insure good varie- ties, that vigor is sacrificed for quality. But special attention is being paid to handling them after they are cut, and this complaint is fast being counter- acted. Dahlias, like every other crop that is being improved each year, must be handled carefully, and the commis- sion men in this city have taken this matter up and with the cooperation of the growers have effected a big improve- ■ ment already. There is plenty of miscellaneous stock of all sorts to be had. To sum up, the market has taken on a decided autumn tone. Vincent's Dahlia Show. The dahlia exhibition of Eichard Vincent, Jr., & Sons Co., White Marsh, Md., was held October 2 to 4. October 2 was to have been the Florists' Club day, but owing to the inclement weath- er not many attended, though those who did were well repaid for their trip. E. A. Vincent had staged one of the best exhibitions it has ever been my pleasure to see. Along one side of the large potting shed he had large set pieces, such as pictures, the frames ol which were worked out in yellow to represent gilt. The finest of these was a vase of Vincent's new seeding, which will go out next year. Many think it finer than King of Autumn, which is its parent. In color it is much the same as the parent flower, but the petals are incurved and the stems and foliage are better, and the opinion is that it wiU make a much better commercial varie- ty than King of Autumn. In front of these pictures rugs were worked out in dahlias. This work was certainly a credit to the designer. Another set piece was a large flash, with a raised wreath on it; the plaque was about 4x6 feet. The wreath was made of white. White sprays of Corona dahlias were so artistically worked in that it would have been hard for a novice to tell them from gardenias. In fact, I heard of one of the leading florists of this country, located in another city, who made a bride's bouquet of this variety which was taken to be gar- denias. This is just an instance of how the dahlia is improving. In the trial grounds the company has about fifty seedlings, many of which look to me to be comers. Mr. Vincent told me that these would be culled down to five or six. To take the Vincent dahlia show as a whole, it is a wonder- ful piece of work, and there is no doubt of the fact that in these exhibitions the Vincents "Say It with Flowers" in a manner that is most expensive. Various Notes. After inspecting the dahlia show we paid a visit to the range of C. E. Ake- hurst, the carnation specialist. At this range we got an idea of what the scar- city of carnation plants means. Mr. Akehurst has an acre under glass. As a general rule, Mr. Akehurst has plenty of plants to sell in the fall, but this year he had not enough for his own use. He has several houses that are being planted in pansies and sweet peas in- stead of carnations. Our next stop was at John Neuth's, on the Belair road. Mr. Neuth is also short of his usual quantity of carna- tions, but what he has are in fine shape and promise a fine cut for Christmas. At this range, while some of the chrys- anthemums are being grown to a single flower on a stem, the majority are being grown for medium-sized stock. Mr. Neuth feels that there is always a good demand for this size and this year he is going to furnish stock that can be sold for $10 and $12 per hundred. This seems to be a wise business move, for the idea of most growers is to see how large they can have them. Of course, last year there was no trouble to sell anything, on account of the "flu," but two years ago I heard much complaint of the inability to get anything in medium-sized mums. The entire crop of cut dahlias grown by Eichard Vincent, Jr., & Sons Co. is being handled again this year by the Leo Niessen Co. This company is tak- ing special pains to see that they are packed properly. During the exhibi- tion, to insure the prompt shipment of orders from all over t7i€ country, Wil- liam F. Ekas, manager of^ the Baltimore store of the Leo Niess^ ^o,, was out at the farm every day. Wime he wae superintending the shipment of theee OCTOBEB 9, 1919. The Florists^ Review 25 orders, an innovation was put into practice that has proved most success- ful. Whenever possible the orders are filled the day before they are needed; the blooms are packed in a specially ^ constructed box 6x15x42, a single layer from each end «(f the box and in most cases one variety to a box. They are delivered to the retailer without any subsequent rehandling. Mr. Ekas told me they were handling thousands each day in this manner and were receiving no complaints. This seems to be a good system, as it does away with much handling. Such regard for detail is the best evidence in the world that it will not be long until the dahlia cut will be handled as perfectly as the rose. It is also the surest sort of evidence that the dahlia is becoming a strong factor on the cut flower market. Judging from the line of baskets the S. S. Pennock Co. is putting in this fall, they expect the flower business to pass all records during the coming sea- son. The club banquet, ladies' night and dance will be held at the Southern ho- tel Tuesday, October 21, at 7 p. m. There will be continuous entertainment throughout the evening for those who do not dance. Prominent out-of-town speakers will be present. The attend- ance will be limited to 200. The tickets are going fast. Secure one at once from Albert Fiedler, 902 South Charles street. The cost will be $4. Tate. PEOVIDENCE, E. I. The Market. Last week was a busy one. The visit of Cardinal Mercier to this city made an unusually large demand for red blooms in harmony with the cardinal colors, and roses, dahlias and zinnias of that color found ready sale at slightly stiffer prices. Eoses are showing improvement every week as to both quality and quantity, while the early chrysanthemums are beginning to arrive. Carnations will soon be a factor in the market. Dahlias are showing a decided increase in popu- larity. Various Notes. Following the granting of the peti- tions of Frank L. Budlong et al. by the Superior court for the dissolution of the Budlong Eose Co. and the Harris Farm & Mine Co., deeds were filed last week conveying the property of the Budlong Eose Co. to James A. Budlong II, and the Harris Farm & Mine Co. to J. A. Budlong and Frank L. Budlong. The prices are not given, but the first named carries stamps indicating $211,000 and the second has stamps indicating $28,500. In honor of the cardinal's visit, Tim- othy O'Connor had the order for the decorations as well as the cut flowers f r the McElroy mansion, where the cardinal was domiciled during his stay. The table decorations for the business men's luncheon at Narragansett hotel, given by the Providence Chamber of Commerce, were done by T. J. John- ston & Co. William B. Hazard has returned from a business trip to New York and vicinity. James Karins, representing Henry A. Dreer, Inc., of Philadelphia, was a busi- ness visitor in this city last week. Albert Holscher is cutting some fine •arly chrysanthemums. Alexander Macrae was married last week, as was also Herbert A. Taylor, of Macnair's force. The Maplehurst Greenhouses have been putting up a new house at Long- meadow. Charles Hunt, Burnside street, has been making extensive renovations in his range, which he has decided to con- tinue instead of going into the milk business as he had planned. Peter Byrnes, of Wickf ord, and George Hunt, of this city, were among the special guests at the Brockton fair muster at Brockton, Mass., last Friday. P. F. Conley has had the entire range of houses at 48 Updike street repainted and renovated. William M. P. Bowen is shipping large quantities of fancy dahlias to Boston, New York and Philadelphia. W. H. M. DAYTON, O. Visitors to the greenhouses of the Eolf Zetlitz Co., formerly the Miami Floral Co., find that a great transfor- mation has taken place. Several thou- sand dollars have been spent on labor, paint, glass and Permanite to put the roofs in good shape. The whole heating system has been overhauled, the boiler retubed and a new 200-horsepower water tube boiler installed. The whole range has been wired for electricity and an automatic electric pump has been set up. The majority of the roses have been cut back for a later crop and are breaking well. The pot plant department, which is in charge of C. G. Anderson, includes large blocks of cyclamens. Begonia Cin- cinnati, Dracffina Massangeana and D. terminalis, crotons, pandanus, poinset- tias, bird's-nest and other ferns, and a large lath house of hydrangeas. This summer a nursery was started to furnish stock of shrubs, evergreens and peren- nials for the landscape department. C. G. A. DETEOIT, MICH. The Market. The coming of warm weather brought forth increases in stock and for the first time in many weeks there were plenty of roses. Business continues ta improve, due to the return of the flower buying public. American Beauties have been clear- ing each day, being a bit short in quan- tity for their demand, especially the special and fancy grades. Long-stemmed Premier and Columbia are becoming more plentiful, but the demand for them is nearly equal to the supply. These roses are of especially fine qual- ity, bringing on some days more than American Beauties. Ophelias are ot highest quality and all grades clear each day, with enough for all buyers. Ward roses are plentiful and are in- clined to stock up the market, but some richly colored ones are at a premium, bringing regular Christmas prices. The Shawyer, Sunburst, Killarney, White Killarney and Hoosier Beauty roses are all of good quality and almost all find a buyer. Some fine Bride roses, white, are to be had, also some Safrano buds, which are a novelty to this mar- ket. Carnations are in oversupply, only the best flnding a buyer, and mums are coming in each day, but as yet they are scarce and not much in quality. The good mums one sees in the shops are mostly from California. Dahlias re- main scarce and only a few shops have them in stock. Gladioli from out-of- town shippers are to be had, the demand being equal tp the supply. Asters are about finished. Tritomas are fine stock, always welcomed by the buyers; their supply is short. Other seasonable flowers, such as calendulas, bouvardia, feverfew, celosia, cornflowers, swainsona, Japanese lilies and cosmos, are to be had. Sweet peas and violets have started to come into the market, but not in any great quan- tity. Various Notes. October has started off with many weddings, which have kept the decorat- ing forces busy. There are more wed- ings booked for this month than there were for June, which is indeed saying something. The beautiful autumn foli- age is being used to good advantage in decorations. F. Holznagle, of North Woodward avenue, is doing an exceptionally good business in Boston ferns and other house plants. John Breitmeyer 's Sons ' Park Flower Shop has had an effective window dis- play of flower and fruit baskets. The Central Floral Co. is showing a good lot of cyclamen and primrose plants. John M. Carey, 491 Woodward ave- nue, had a pan of turtle eggs in his win- dow, which attracted a great many passers-by. One could see the turtles hatching "while you wait." George Doemling, of Mt. Clemens, is cutting Ward, Columbia and Hoosier Beauty roses, which are of high quality. The Marine City Floral Co. is cutting lovely bouvardia, calendulas, sweet peas and some chrysanthemums. The Pontiac Floral Co., of Pontiac, Mich., is sending in choice Bride and Safrano roses, also the best grade of carnations. Tom Browne, of Bedford, Mich., is cutting chrysanthemums, of which he has a fine lot, this week. He is also cutting carnations in quantity. Thursday night, October 2, at the meeting of the Florists' Bowling League, Louis Charvot bowled high game at 196, closely followed by M. Bloy with 195; Kirkpatrick bowled high average with 174.

The Review brings results. The rose midge will not ruin the crops of those who watch and work. Autumn offers wide opportunities to ingenious window decorators. The mark in quality cannot be set too high to be attainable or profitable. When you order bench lumber, watch out that the dealer's quotation is not on random lengths. News that a million giganteum bulbs lie at the bottom of the Pacific ocean will not brighten the outlook for lilies this sea- son. The Want Ad and For Sale depart- ment is a record again this week — more of these little big-opportunity ads than in any previous issue. It pays to watch them. The Buffalo conference of coal opera- tors and miners adjourned to meet in an- other city. Whether they can reach an agreement is a question of concern to flo- rists whose season's fuel is not all in. In figuring on the season 's prospects, a conservative rose grower estimates that it will cost him 75 cents a plant to grow roses this year, allowing for depreciation, etc. As that sum should be produced on less than a 3-cent average, prospects for the industry seem fair. The new express packing rules which go into effect December 10 do not affect this trade, since its shipments already are boxed as the companies will require. The principle of the proposed regulations is that i>ackages over twenty-five pounds will not he accepted in j)aj)er wrapping only, but must be packed in boxes of wood or of fibrehoard or corrugated strawboard of definite strength, according to test. WiLi^iAM F. GuDK sends The Review a picture of the new House of the Tem- ple of the Suj)reme ('ouncil of the An- cient ami Accepted Scottish Rite, whicli is to he dedicated at Washing- ton this inoiitli. It contains a room for the jireservation of tlie late W. R. Smitli's famous collection of Burnsiaua and Mr. Gude. who is cliairnian of the S. A. F. committee on the Smith memo- rial, writes: "You will note from the enclosed that the William R. Smith Burns library is well taken ciire of in the nation's capital. This has taken some years to bring about, l)ut it surely is a fitting tribute to the fatlier of our S. A. F. charter. ' ' Because the Red Cross objected to such "commercializing" of its name as Peter Fisher's use of it for his new carnation, that originator has renamed the variety Ethel Fisher. Labor strikes have a depressing effect in a number of localities just when the au- tumn increase was expected. The trade will find satisfaction in a general settle- ment of industrial difficulties. The growing importance of the F. T. D. is reflected by the Pink Section of The Review, which contains twenty-four pages at the time of this year's convention, an increase of fifty per cent in the last year and of 100 per cent in the last two years. The confectioners tried to pull off a candy week — they didn 't quite dare go so far as calling it a " Say It with Candy ' ' week, though doubtless they would have liked to — but the press and public put a quick finish to the plan, because of the scarcity of sugar. A British nursery firm announces the death of an employee after sixty-one years of continuous service! In America such records are unknown, because the trade is too young and because the business grows so fast that good men usually leave after a few years to strike out for them- selves. For advertising in St. Louis the assess- ment on the growers of one-half of one per cent on the stock sold through the wholesale houses yielded $1,043.84 from April 1 to October 1. This season the plan is to assess buyers one per cent on j)lants and cut flowers from wholesalers and growers, in order to raise $3,000 for local billboard and newspaper advertising. KICKEACE IN HIGH FSICES. Labor loses instead of gains by forcing the prices of commodities too high in its desire for increased wrages. When users find the cost of a certain article much above what they used to pay they scheme to cut down on its use, according to George H. Angermueller, of St. Louis. For example, the retailer who used to tear off a yard or two, or several yards, of chiffon, says Mr. Angermueller, now measures it to see exactly how much or how little he will need to obtain the proper effect. Not only is abundant use checked, but substitutes are evolved. Tinfoil has be- come so high in price that many retail- ers have learned to make paper do in its place in backing for designs. Other materials, such as florists' thread, says Mr. Angermueller, are being used more sparingly or abandoned entirely where a convenient makeshift is found. The result is that the high prices de- crease the call for an article. Produc- tion is therefore reduced in the course of time and when conditions revert to .somewhere near normal there will be not so much employment open in certain fields. Thus, Mr. Angermueller states, occurs a kickback from high prices. LEARN FROM OTHER FELLOW. No two florists travel exactly the same road, yet both at some points in the journey have many of the same problems to solve. Why not exchange knowledge? The personal touch ob- tained through organization and ex- change of information gives one many an important lesson without the accom- panving bitterness where too much is paii for learning. When Jones has got the best of you it is to your interest to tell the other fellow so he won't get bit, and he will be likely to reciprocate and prevent Smith's fooling you. There are lots of things that florists know in- dividually which can be made generally helpful by spreading through organiza- tion. Possibly you have heard the Lon- don fog story of a man, who, after al- most stumbling over another, asked him where the river was and received the reply that it was a few steps ahead, as he had just come out of it. Don't be afraid of asking the other fellow the way in a fog. Next to the pleasure of remembering how you saved a competi- tor from harm is the memory of his serv- ice in guiding you to safety. It is sure to pay finally to be friendly instead of antagonistic. DEBUTANTES. Novelties Coming Out Next Season, There will be a nice list of new varie- ties coming out in the 1920 season, un- less present signs fail. Already an- nouncement has been made of the ap- proaching dissemination of the follow- ing: Carnations. Ruth Baur, light pink, by Baur & Steinkamp, Indianapolis. Bernice, crimson, by W. D. Howard, Milford, Mass. Ethel Fisher, red, by Peter Fisher, Ellis, Mass. Roses. Mme. Butterfly, sport of Ophelia, by E. G. Hill Co., Richmond, Ind., and as- sociates. Pilgrim, rose-pink, a Montgomery seedling, to be distributed by A. N. Pierson, Inc., Cromwell, Conn. Crusader, crimson, a Montgomery seedling, to be distributed by A. N. Pierson, Inc., Cromwell, Oonn. > Mrs, John Cook, white tinted pink, a John Cook seedling of Ophelia, to be disseminated by A. N. Pierson, Inc., Cromwell, Conn. WHAT HAVE YOU? Stock of most kinds is in such demand this season that any florist who has a surplus of good plants does some other florists a favor by printing a Classified ad in The Review. There usually are quick takers for everything good. Like this: The plants were sold out immediately. — Wauseon Floral Co., Wauseon, O., September 29, 1019. On account of the ad I have Inquiry for more plants than I can furnish. You will hear from me later. — Roy Murray, Olathe, Kan., Septem- ber 27, 1919. The two insertions did the work. We received orders from east, west, north and south. The Review must surely go everywhere. We had more orders than wp could fill. The ClassiSed liners in The Review make for us the cheapest and most effective advertising by far. — Simon Humfeld, Muncie, Ind., October 1, 1919. If you hear a man complain of the cost of advertising you can be pretty certain he spends a good bit of money elsewhere than in The Review. BRIEF ANSWERS. W. V. K., Minn. — It seems imprac- ticable to use a house for roses only six or seven months of a year. Plants can be heeled in. Mrs. H. L. M., Mo. — Cut above the first pair of leaves. The fern leaf was not enclosed. J. C. C, Ont. — No. 1 is Santolina Chamaecyparissus. No. 2, Senecio Cin- eraria, also called Cineraria candidis- sima. OCXOBBB 9. 1910. The Florists^ Review 27 OBITUARY Mrs. Henrietta Bawllngs. The fuaeral services for Mrs. Hen- rietta Eawlings, whose death in an auto- mobile accident at Cleveland, O., Sep- tember 27, was reported in last week's issue of The Eeview, were held at Paines- ville, O., September 30 at the home of her mother, Mrs. Mary E. Storrs. The casket bearers were W. C. Harrison, president of the Storrs & Harrison Co.; Edward B. George, assistant general manager of the same firm; J. Storrs, Burr T. Belden, Harry Post and Arthur Colby. Mrs. Eawlings was a daughter of the late W. 6. Storrs, for years general manager of the Storrs & Harrison Co. She is survived by her mother, a sister, Mrs. J. W. Eice, and a daughter, Cath- erine, who was seriously injured in the accident in which Mrfi. Eawlings was killed. NEW YORK. The Market. The market continues to show im- provement and, with a greater demand for flowers grown under glass, is set- tling toward late fall conditions. No killing frosts have been experienced anywhere in the territory contiguous to this market and consequently there is still a large influx of outdoor flowers. Dahlias particularly are in heavy sup- ply, weather conditions having been most favorable for them. A goodly portion of arrivals includes flowers of excellent quality and they sell well in the absence of anything like a good supply of chrysanthemums. Where color is wanted it certainly is to be had in the dahlias. The larger retail stores appear to favor the newer show vari- eties, although some of the old-timers, such as Sylvia, are in demand. The variety Delice moves quickly, but it is not in great supply; some growers as- sert that it is not a productive variety. The white Hortulanus Witte is in good demand for funeral work. Gladioli are nearing the end of the season's supply, although some good spikes of flowers are still to be had. A few violets are coming in, but the quality is poor, as might be expected with warm, muggy weather. The supply of chrysanthemums is in- creasing, but is far short of the supply usually in evidence at this time. The varieties available are mainly Golden Glow, Smith's Advance, October Frost and pink and bronze Unaka. They move well at $2 to $4 per dozen. Few of the early-flowering pompon and : single varieties have been seen so jfar, -< all being late this year. While there is a good supply of roses, arrivals are not so heavy ,as they have been. The short grades largely pre- ponderate and at times are slow in clear- ance. American Beauty is in good sup- ply and moves well. The quality of the hybrid tea stock is- -bet'ter, with k good demand for the long-stemmed grades, which are none too plentiful. Th^ supply of carnations is increasing, but of course the flowers' are short- stemmed; the flower heads, however, are of fair size. The range of price is from $1 to $3 per hundred, with some selected stock going at $4 per hundred. Easter lilies continue to be conspicu- ous by their almost entire absence, but rubrums are still plentiful, and bring from $3 to $5 per hundred, bud and flower. Lily of the valley continues scarce, with the quality of such stock as is available decidedly poor; prices paid are 20 cents to 30 cents per spray for the best grades, and as low as 4 cents for culls. Orchids are plentiful, but move slowly at 25 cents to 75 cents, with $1 for some of the hybrid varieties. The expected large supply of the labiata variety does not seem to materialize. A few oncidiums are making an appear- ance. Tritomas, snapdragons, calendulas, hardy asters, zinnias, ageratum, del- phiniums and the like are still plentiful and are taken mainly for window dec- oration. The supply of asters is declin- ing, but there is no scarcity by any means and the best bring as much as $2 per hundred, with the remainder going as low as 50 cents per hundred. Bou- vardia is more plentiful, but the best Humboldtii still bring 50 cents per bunch. Fur, Flowers and Bising Bents. In the last few years the fur trade has concentrated in and around the flower market section and the furriers have cast envious eyes upon the vari- ous holdings of the wholesale florists along West Twenty-eighth street. It seems that, in spite of the high rents paid by the florists, the fur people are willing to go higher, with the result that several of the florists are unable to negotiate renewals of their leases and three or four evacuations are scheduled for the near future. The veteran, J. K. Allen, will probably be the first to lo- cate in new quarters. The "handwriting on the wall" would lead one to expect that Twenty- eighth ^street is not to be much longer for the florists. Already there is talk of reconeentration in another district, but the problem is an acute one. Avail- able locations, through the general movement of industries toward segre- gation, have been pretty well covered. The various prospects presented to the florist trade within a decade or more were lightly dismissed without thought to a future, which was then considered to ho a possibility rather than a prob- ability. One or two plans which, un- der present circumstances, would be welcomed were cast aside and cannot now be recalled, and the prospect of others along similar lines presenting themselves is rnther dim. It is iinder- stood that the Wholesale FloVists' Pro- tective Association is taking action on ths problem. Various Notes. The next meeting of the New York Florists' riub will be held in the club's rooms in the Grand Opera House build- ing, Twenty-third street and Eighth avenue, and a good attendance is ex- pected. An important matter to come before the meeting will be the consid- eration of the proposed new quarters for the club. Anyone havine a novelty in .th^ way of new chrvsanthemums or other flowers or plants, is invited to ex- hibit the same at this meotine. Ex- hibits may be sent in care of John Young & Co., 53 West Twenty-eighth street. New York. Eoman J. Irwin, 108 West Twenty- eighth street; Wallace E. Pierson, of Cromwell, Conn., and F. C. W. Brown, of Cleveland, O., have gone to the woods in the north of the proyince of New Brunswick on a hunting expedition. As reports from that section are to the effect that game is plentiful this sea- son, they should return with all th« trophies allowed by law. The schedule committee of the flower show committee held a meeting Sep- tember 23, at which the final schedule for the show was prepared. The pub- lication of the schedule is delayed through the printers' strike, which has closed all the printing offices in the city. Among the publications which in consequence have been forced into tem- porary suspension is the Florists' Ex- change. Visitors: J. C. Vaughan, Chicago; Major P. F. O'Keefe, Boston. J. H. P. The third Wednesday in each month has been decided upon as the stated meeting time of the Horticultural Society of New York. The first meeting under this arrangement will take place Octo- ber 15 at 8 p. m., at the American Mu- seum of Natural History, Seventy- seventh street and Columbus avenue. A primary motive in establishing this regular meeting date is to provide for the gardening profession in New York and vicinity a stated monthly meeting to which gardeners may come to discuss current happenings, and also to exhibit new, unusual, or interesting plants and flowers.

Proverbially mercurial, sentiment in the market is enjoying a flight this week. We are well into October, the month which set a new record last year and which even the most sanguine had not hoj)ed to equal in 1919. But won- ders never cease and a considerable number of the progressive houses find that their sales for the first seven days of October not only equal the splendid record of last year, but actually show a handsome increase! It is no wonder everybody is busy and happy. If there is any wholesaler in this market who is not doing business it is because of one or both of two things: Either he has little stock of the right kind or he has neglected to place his shipping bnsiness on a firnj foundation. The shipping trade is well known to be the backbone of the market. C. L. Washburn, just home from a trip to the Pacific coast, illustrates the value of shipping business by describing condi- tions in Ran Francisco. He says that within the last couple of years a tre- mendous shipping business on chrysan- themums has been built up in San Francisco. It even extends as far east as Chicago, but the point that Mr. Washburn brings out is that retailers in San Francisco told him that tfce [Continued on page 32.] 28 The Florists^ Review October 9. 1919.

WB AKB CLOSED ALL DAT SUNDAY shipping demand now centered there has had the result of doubling tha eoat of chryaa^themums to the local San Francisco retailers. With this in view, one can appreciate what the shipping business does to maintain and steady cut flower prices in Chicago. Although total sales are running ahead of the unprecedented figures of last year, prices are not so high as they were a year ago. There is much more stock in the market and the average quality is distinctly better. Indeed, the Chicago market never has had a larger or finer supply of flowers at this time of year. The situation is extremely satisfactory. There is a big supply of good stock and the demand is sufficient to consume it all at profitable prices. The average wholesaler hopes to see prices continue at about this level. It is regarded as far better to move a big quantity of stock at fair figures than to force the same sum of money out of smaller production. The present con- dition is increasing the use of flowers. This is a rose market. There prob- ably are aa many roses, including Beau- ties, as all other flowers put together. There is a large variety and the stock is excellent. The only scarcity is of short roses, for cheap funeral work. Chrysanthemums are scarcely more abundant than a week ago. Some new growers are shipping, but some of the earlier ones have cut their first crop. Prices on mums, as on nearly all other flowers, have advanced with the in- eteaaed demand.

The cut last week-^wHs "from 3,000 to 8,000 flowers per day and the quality was excellent. Charles Abrams is the chief owner and active head of the con- cern. His principal associate has been Henry Klusmeyer, a local business man at Lombard, widely known in the vicin- ity but not a florist prior to his invest- ment in these greenhouses. Mr. Klus- meyer died quite suddenly October 4 and was buried October 7. The E. C.

Edward Galavan, sales manager for the company, has just returned from New York, where he went to complete the arrangements with Mr. Hollander, who is a sales agent of experience in New York. C. L. Washburn returned from Cali- fornia October 6. He is well pleased wdth the progress made at the Bassett & Washburn palm growing establish- ment near Los Angeles. He says they plan to plant there about 250 bushels of kentia seeds each year, and that last season they obtained the greater part of all the kentia seeds which came to the United States, about 175 bushels. E. B. Washburn is expected here about October 15 on a trip which will extend as far east as Philadelphia. P. C. Schupp calls attention to a point which will be of value to customers out of town. Mr. Schupp says that buyers do not order early enough in the day. It is all right if everything goes smooth- ly, but with present conditions there are frequent delays in the transmission or delivery of telegrams. Mr. Schupp says that the J. A. Budlong Co. fre- quently receives telegrams hours after the flowers ordered should have been on their way. The wholesaler is powerless. It is up to the buyer to send his orders in season to provide against possible delay. A. Miller, president of the American Bulb Co., returned October 4, from five months spent in Japan. His idea is that this year's supply of giganteum lily bulbs is not more than one-third what the world consumed annually be- fore the war. W, P. Kyle and R. C.

Among the outdoor flowers there are still many asters, gladioli, cosmos, tube- roses and dahlias. In greens there is a good supply of everything and the demand for aspara- gus and ferns has been large all the week. It will take a good frost to stimu- late business. There are prospects of excellent business this week, as there are many weddings and other social events scheduled, including the annual Veiled Prophet's ball at the Coliseum. Retail Florists' Meeting. The Ketail Florists' Association held a special meeting September 29 at 8 o'clock in Mission Inn Garden. The call was for retailers and wholesalers, to which only forty responded. The meeting was called to discuss the ad- visability of closing on Sunday. Presi- dent F. C. Weber, Jr., called on all present for their views on the closing question. At the conclusion the ma- jority ruled against closing on Sunday. Those signing the petition were greatly outnumbered. The meeting then ad- journed. Those favoring Sunday clos- ing say another attempt will be made at a called meeting in the near future. County Growers' Association.

There is not a large demand for American Beauties at this time, but the supply is fair. Orchids are jdentiful and sell well. The demand for greens is good and the sui)ply is adequate in every way.

The Market. The industrial unrest has not as yet made any depression in the trade here. Everyone seems to he optimistic as to the coming season. There is little hope that jirices will drop to any extent in other lines. Various Notes. .\t a sjiecial meeting of the Toledo Florists' Association a resolution was l)assed according to which all flower stores are to keep their doors locked on Sunday, but it will be permissible to hook phone, wire or othe"r'orders taken outside of the store for future delivery. But no flowers or plants are to be de- livered or given away or to leave the premises on Sunday. Max Spanner, Frank Schramm and Walter Crause were appointed a committee to call on those not represented. In case a unanimous opinion does not prevail, the matter will be taken to the mayor and city council, to make the resolution a city ordinance. Scottwood Greenhouses reported a wedding of unusual proportions last week. House, church and a tent on the spacious lawn were lavishly decorated. For this 1,000 chrysanthemums from the coast were a great help, since the home- grown mums are not ready. Thomas Magee was fortunate in getting the as- sistance of Lorin Hicks from Metz & Rateman. Mr. Hicks is leaving shortly for Los Angeles, where he expects to make his future home. Max Spanner gains considerable trade through his well kept windows. Busi- ness seems to be steady and on the good side here. Metz & Bateman have redecorated their entire store and moved some coun- ters and cases to give more room. They are well pleased with their new loca- tion. Since their advent here the sur- rounding leaseholds have all been taken up, principally by corporate interests, so that future prosperity is assured.

He states that American dealers may expect a scarcity of lilies and good, stiff prices. "Japan had about one-half its normal crop this year,'' he said, "and this con dition, together with the difficulty in securing space on steamers and the de- lay caused by the sterilization process through whicli all soil exported from Japan must go, will render the lily mar- ket a difficult one in this country. Then, too, England's raising the em- bargo on bulbs creates another large market which will have to be stocked by Japanese growers. ' ' Other visitors in this city last week included Robert Newcomb, of the Bur- lington Willow Ware Shops and other eastern firms, and Charles G.

Keep It Oolng. In his address before the society 's convention in Detroit last August, Major P. F. O 'Keef e, who takes more than a mere business interest in our publicity campaign, said: Flowers come under the head of articles re- quiring comparatively small outlay. We must therefore keep our advertising going. To popu- larize anything requires persistent and Insistent reiteration — not repetition of the same thought expressed in dlfTerent ways, but nationalizing a thought by continuous advertising. We are popularizing rapidly our slogan, "Say It with Flowers." It Is fast becoming one of our na- tional sayings, a national institution, and is to- day unqnestlonably an asset, which you gentle- men possess, that is worth hundreds of thou- sands of dollars. It is an asset which, unlike any other that I can think of, has the practical ability of being divisible among a lot of busi- ness men scattered over our entire country. The example which it sets is one that, once culti- vated, grows from one person to another in each community, and from one community to another.

Dahlias have been late, but a fairly good supply is now available. It is feared, however, tliat frost will get the greater part of the croj). Carnations are getting better in (juality and liigher in price. They are rather limited and in good demand at from $:5 to $"> ])er hundred. Roses are nuire plentiful and sell readily at from $;> to $1.") ])er luindrcd. The summer line iias a few straggling lingerers. Of these, gladioli are among the best and make $(i per hundred. Chrysanthemums are jteeping into the nuirket a few more :it a time, but are in no supplv as vet. The few available are quickly sold. Business has been fairly brisk. The majority of florists have a decidedly optimistic view of the fall and winter season and expect this to be one of the best. Various Notes.

Invest for the Winter Season. Our enthusiasts are now concerned with the important question of keeping our advertising going. It costs money to do this— big money. The $20,000 ap- propriated for our fall advertising has been judiciously placed. We ought to have had $50,000 to expend and really expected to have it. All of us would experience results in proportion to the expenditure. With the small amount of money available, we have achieved a wonderful success, but we have not been able to cover this great country of fami- lies as we might. We are only "mark- ing time," when we see a clear field ahead for a victorious advance. Milwaukee EXCLUSIVE FLORAL ARRANGEMENTS BAUMGARTEN, Inc. Member F. T. D. 128-130 MASON ST. KENOSHA, WIS. L.

On the card is written the name of the F. T. D. Florist who placed the order with us. Our "ATLANTIC" Steamer Boxes — just as pretty as this picture shows them to be — and the flowers will outlast the voyage — cost from $10«00 up- ward, according to variety of flowers used.

The demand has never fallen to that dull, dead level we so commonly experience durinj; hot weather. There has been a demand for flowers of all varieties and kinds and although the supjdy of stock has been greater than in former years, there were times when it was diflBcult to find stock enough to fill orders. At this writing there is an excellent crop of roses in all varieties; Premier and Russell are especially fine and are quick sellers at from $.3 to $6 per dozen. Other roses, such as Ophelia, Kaisorin, Hoosier Beauty and Columbia, are also good and range in price from $2 to $.5 per dozen. The first carnatioas made their aj)pearance about October 1, but the blooms were small, the stems were short and as yet the crop is not heavy enough to be of any significance. Chrysanthemums are showing color and some of the earlier varieties will soon be on the market. There is a good crop of swainsona at this time. The crop of dahlias is better than ever before and, if they can be protected from a possible early frost, there will be plenty of them for the next three or four weeks, as a EGGERT N.

FREEMAN OF "THE FLOWERS" 336 Superior Street. TOLEDO. OHIO number of the best varieties, such as Mina Burgle, Sulphur King, Pink Per- fection, Nymphia and others, are just beginning to bloom. Helianthus is fine this season. There is a noticeable demand for ferns and indoor plants, which is some- what unusual so early in the season. Paper Whites, yellow Paper Whites and Chinese sacred lilies are the only bulbs thus far received. These are mov- ing well despite the high prices; con- trary to what we were led to expect, the quality is better than last year. There were comparatively few Dutch bulbs or- dered hero this year, since the trade planned to depend more on other flow- ers, rather than pay the high prices asked for the bulbs, with no warrant that they would be good when received.

This causes a large demand for peony roots at this time of the year, as fall planting is the best, and anything at from 50 cents to $2.50 finds a ready sale. Roses are the mainstay. Killarney and White Killarney are good, Russell is fair and Columbia and Beauties are in good condition. Snapdragons and gla- dioli are especially fine and are used artistically in baskets and sprays for funerals. The first shipment of chrys- anthemums has arrived from California, but they are in poor condition, which makes them rather costly when one fig- ures that many have to go to the dump and the price has to be figured on the good ones.

The carnation crop is showiug im- provement as the season advances, but roses are still the most plentiful thing on the market and really the only thing, considered from a shipping standpoint. Ophelia ranges from $4 to $12 per hun- dred; Russell, Columbia and Premier from $8 to $14 per hundred. There are a few Wards at $.3 per hundred. Car- nations are $3 and $4 per hundred and decidedly good. Dahlias are being used to some extent in local orders, but for shipping they are not considered desir- able. Four days of midsummer temperature last week failed to cause much of a slack in business. There was a good showing in funeral work in the early part of the week and some entertaining.

"The steady advance of wages, ma- nure and other articles prevents prices of seeds from decreasing soon," say Sluis & Groot, of Enkhuizen, Holland, in resuming their crop report of pre- war days. "In general, the plantings of reliable articles are anything but extensive and in consequence of the restrictions during the previous years the areas of several varieties will be small if not failing entirely. There are large quantities of seeds on the market which have not been grown from re- liable stock seeds and which in most cases are mixed. In view of this we can only advise customers to act with the greatest precaution when making purchases. "The restrictions of the government have fortunately ceased for the greater part and it may be taken for granted that all export restrictions will soon be- long to the past. "The weather last spring was un- favorable, 80 that the development of May biennials has been retarded. Only the varieties of turnip and Swedes have been lost for the greater part. Follow- ing is a summary of some principal varieties: Dwarf beans, pole beans. — Important plantings of dwarf beans, especially of popular varieties. The dwarf beans have been planted on a small scale, some varieties being exceedingly small. The stand of the latter is often far from favor- able, some varieties being extremely poor and in general so far quite late. All depends on the weather which will prevail during September and October. _ , ^ English beans. — Plantings fairly sufBclent. Stand on the whole middling; many plantings unfavorable, which promises a small crop. Beets. — All varieties In a small way. In general a hardly average crop may be expected. Brussels sprouts, borecole. — Also a limited acreage. Stand rather satisfactory. Cabbage, white, red cabbage, savoy. — Stood the winter well. In autumn weather was unfavor- able and owing to the doubtful situation growers did not transplant all their plants, so that the areas were considerably smaller than expected at first. The plants starte«J to flower again here and there so that only a middling crop may be expected. Carrots. — About normal plantings of the better early and half-early varieties, while of the late Dutch varieties a sufBclent acreage has been planted. Stand on the whole satisfactory, al- though there are here and there some holes. Chervil. — Small area planted. Promise a suffi- cient crop. „. . . _^, , Chicory. — Small acreage. This is an article which requires much sunshine, with which we have not been blessed during late weeks and therefore the yield wlU not come ap to a sufficient crop. Comsalad. — Small acreage. An average crop may be expected. BRITAIN Is The NATURAL HOME OP THE CABBAGE and of BRASSICAS in general, KALE, BROCCOLI, CAULIFLOWER, etc. ALSO RUTABAGA ANB TURNIP. Did you see our MR. OWEN F. TROTT?

Cress. — Normal planting. Promise a rather good crop. Cucumber. — Of the principal varieties tliere are sufficient plantings; on the other haiid, those of the foreign varieties are far from Important. The absence of sunsliine bus been the cause of the retarding, so that we are unable to say anything aljout the presumable yield. Lieel£. — Small acreage. It is not yet possible to report particulars about the yield. Lettuce. — Planted on a small scale. Mangelwurzel, sugar beets. — Also small plant- ings. If 1918 crop seeds continue being sold gradually, the yield will be not at all sufficient to cover tlie wants, the more so as the crop will be far from satisfactory. Onion. — The varieties Dutch yellow and Blood- red flat have been planted on a small scale, wliile the other varieties are not grown. Parsley.— Small plantations. Stand up till now good. Parsnip. — Small area planted, Stand rather satisfactory. Peas, sugar peas. — Sugar peas, small area planted. Of round peas a sufficient acreage has been planted. On the other hand, the plantings of the wrinliled varieties are small. Stand partly satisfactory, but below the average and often even unsatisfactory, owing to the bad germina- tion of the seeds. Purslain. — Sown on a small scale. Stand is hardly satisfactory, owing to the fold and moist weather. Radish. — A small area planted, of which part did not succeed. Tlie yield of this late article will probably not be satisfactory. Savory. — Limited plantings. Stand below the average and late. Sorrel, scorzonera, celery.— Normal plantings. Stand good. Spinach. — This article has been planted in our country on a small scale. Stand rather satis- factory. However, the yield will scarcly be able to supply the demand. Swedetumlp, or rutabaga. — Area sown not im- portant. Promise a moderate crop, but some plants commenced flowering again. Swisschard. — Sufficient acreage sown. Stand In general ratlier satisfactory. Turnip. — Small area planted, with a hardly average stand. Commenced flowering again. "The plantings of flower seeds have also been limited. In the early part of the summer they suffered from continu- ous drought and afterwards the low temperature and lack of sunshine made the growth somewhat backward."

The officers are as follows: President, H, K. Miller; vice-president, H. A. Gossard, and secre- tary-treasurer, W. P. Jernigan. Contemplated grading of an adjacent highway is regarded as dangerous to its property by the Watrous Nursery Co., Des Moines, la. An injunction granted the company five years ago against the county board of supervisors may be invoked. George W. Jones, of the Valdesian Nurseries, Bostic, N. C, says he believes that concern has the largest stock of Mag- nolia grandiflora in existence, 20,000 field-grown plants, even aifter having de- livered to the United States government 22,100 in the spring of 1919. It is a general report that prices of nursery stock have been put up only enough to cover partially the increased cost of labor and supplies, and that next year, should these costs not fall, prices must be boosted again and enough to give a profit equivalent to former years '. The Storrs & Harrison Co., Painesville, O., which was founded in 1854 and incor- porated in 1881, has the following official roster: President, W. C. Harrison; vice- president and general manager, Kobert George; assistant general manager, Ed- ward B. George; secretary and treasurer, J. H. Daytoq; assistant treasurer, C. H. Shumaker. The park board of Kansas City, Mo., has ordered W. H. Dunn, superintendent of parks, to purchase between 300 and 400 nut-bearing trees, which will be planted in various parts of the city park system. Black walnut, pecan and butter- nut trees will be purchased for the first experiment. If they prove a success, more of their kind will be added. IBIS TENACIOUS OF LIFE. Speaking of the tenacity of life of an iris root, which was remarked upon by William A. Peterson in his article in The Eeview of September 18, last Au- gust a friend of mine gave me eight small clumps of iris. They came to me wrapped in paper and I placed them on the top shelf of an outside veranda, as I was not ready to set them out that day. I forgot all about them and they were exposed all winter, their only pro- tection being a newspaper. I ran across them the first part of May and was go- ing to throw them out, when it seemed to me that they did not look dead, al- though the leaves were entirely with- ered. I set them out and, much to my surprise, all the* eight clumps lived, and three of them bloomed (a purple va- riety). They have now grown to be fine clumps and have been transplanted by themselves. If I did not know this to be a fact, I doubt if I would believe it. Eight months out of the ground and exposed to frost and cold, and they still live! N. J. STBAWBEBBIES DO NOT BLOOM. In September, 1918, I planted about 300 plants of everbearing strawberries. Superb and Progressive, and up to the present time they have never shown a blossom, but they have made several thousand runners. They are planted in Peonies and Iris Send us yeur name now for our new Catalosue. PETERSON NURSERY 30 N. U Salle St CHICAGO, ILL.

Your experience is rather jaii„,uju||ual one and I am unable to dett^i^iiil ^ust what the cause of your plants not bldom- ing can be. Most probably an eascess of nitrogen and a marked deficiency in potash fertilizer are responsible.

The usual trouble with these perpetual bearers is that they bloom too profusely. I would advise retaining the plants, mulching when cold weather has sealed the ground and removing the mulch about May 1 in your latitude. Do not give any fer- tilizer at all when stirring the ground; a little starvation may make them flower. When you are sure the plants will flower, give them a top-dressing of sheep manure or some good leaf -produc- ing plant food, and as the berries begin to set scatter a little nitrate of potash (saltpeter) among them to help build up the fruit. G. W. SALT LAKE CITY, UTAH. The Market. Business was rather dull during Sep- tember, but an early improvement is looked for on account of rains which have damaged outdoor flowers. Asters are about gone and those which are be- ing cut are of poor quality. Gladioli are beginning to slow up and a ready mar- ket is found for all to be had. Boses are coming on well and all indications point to the best roses in the history of the business. Columbia finds a ready market and some of the other varieties are moving well, but the supply is far in excess of the demand. Chrysanthe- mums are selling well, the stock being especially good. A few carnations can be had, but the stems are still short. However, it looks as if the stock would be of good quality in about two weeks. Outdoor flowers, such as Cecile Brunner roses, snapdragons, buddleia and bella- donna, may be had in small quantities, but the stock is poor and will soon be gone. Various Notes. A beautiful bouquet of Hoosier Beauty and White Shawyer roses, grown in Farmington, was presented to Presi- dent Wilson upon his arrival in Salt Lake City. Eobert Newcomb, representing the Burlington Willow Ware Shops, Bur- lington, la., was a visitor among the trade last week. Louis E. Scott, of the Roselawn Green- houses, Moscow, Idaho, visited the trade lately. G. J. B.

Chrysanthemums made their first appearance and cleaned up read- ily. The bulk of gladioli which stocked the market in the previous weeks is gone and gladioli last week were much in demand. Asters are about gone, with only a few small stragglers arriving. Dahlias are arriving in quantity and realize from $3 to $6 per hundred for fancy, among which are some fine cac- tus varieties. Carnations are arriving better in both quantity and quality, and they realize from $3 to $4 per hundred. Eoses are arriving in quantity and bring from $3 to $15 per hundred, among which are some fine Hadley, Ophelia, Eussell, Premier and Milady. Gypsophila is in demand. Calendula is cleaning up well, as are good zinnias and other outdoor stock. There are a few sweet peas in the market. Swain- sona is scarce. There are few small, white flowers arriving at present suit- able for shower bouquets and the scar- city of white roses makes it difficult to fill wedding orders. Last month Ophelia roses were substituted for white quite frequently. A few daisies are coming in. Greens are arriving in quantity, with a good demand. Various Notes. Al. Barber entertained some of his friends at a house-warming at his home on Yellowstone road with a clambake. George Bate showed himself an excel- lent chef in the way he handled the bake, which was served in the yard, where a large table was set up under the trees. Steinbrenner & King have completed a new greenhouse adjoining their range on Lorain street. W. F. B.

The Flower City 106 The Florists^ Review October 9, 1919. WASHINGTON, D. 0. The Market. Some good Beauties are arriving now. They are selling at from $5 to $7 per dozen. The supply of roses has increased during the last week. Orchids are scarce and are bringing $1.50 each. The car- nation supply is increasing. Dahlias are in abundance and can be bought at al- most one's own price. Various Notes. The florists have been busy holding meetings to make arrangements for "Say It with Flowers" week, which will take place during the first week in No- vember. This event will be widely ad- vertised in many ways throughout the city. A beautiful poster has been pre- pared by the poster committee. Albert Schnell and O. A. C. Oehmler, the finance committee, report that money is coming in fast. From all views, this campaign will be a great success. J. A. Phillips has sold his lease and is going out of the florists' business. Even during the quiet months George C. Shaflfer 's floor is almost always cov- ered with floral pieces ready for de- livery. Herbert Sauber, of Z. D. Blackistone's force, has just returned from a trip through New York. Mrs. William Marche deserves a large amount of credit for the way she has taken hold of the business of her late husband. J. H. Small & Sons have had several large casket covers of late. The Leo Niessen Co. is receiving a fine grade of Beauties for this time of the year. Gude Bros. Co. is cutting exception- ally good Columbia and Red Radiance roses. George Comloy has recently returned from Canada, where he visited his mother. The Louise Flower Shop has a unique display, consisting of a miniature can- yon and waterfalls. This is decorated with L'vorgreens and at night is illu- minated by invisible green lights. There are about fifty birds in the window, of many varieties. It is one of the most striking and original windows that have ever been exhibited in Washington. G. S. SOME FINE STOCK size Per Per of Pot 100 1000 '2i4-in.

Greenhouse Heating Subscribers are invited to write the Editor of this Department with regard to any details of greenhouse heating that are not understood. When infor- mation is desired regarding the capacity of boilers, or the amount of radiation required for a greenhouse, the needed temperatures should be stated in the inquiry, as well as the amount of glass in the side walls, and the dimensions and general arrangement of the green- houses. It is often helpful, also, to have a sketch showing the location of the houses. RUNNING PIPE TO DWELLING. I have been heating my dwelling with a small hot water boiler located in the greenhouse boiler pit, but it is not large enough, and I would like to get a new one, so that I can heat one of the green- houses also. The boiler is not high, and the line runs gradually from the top of the boiler to the top of the cellar of the dwelling. If I get a larger boiler, I shall have to carry the line overhead a distance of 130 feet. To get into the cellar of the dwelling at the end of the 130 feet, I shall have to drop down about 5 feet. Because of the sewer I can not make the boiler pit any deeper. Will the hot water rise and heat the dwellingt The present line is 3-inch, and the expan- sion tank is on the second floor. J. E. S.— Pa. While the drop in the flow pipe re- quired to get it into the cellar is not desirable, it will not greatly hinder the -circulation, especially if the flow can be run with a slight rise from the boiler. This need not be more than one-half inch in ten feet, or just enough to allow the air to escape from the pipe. It will of course be necessary to pro- vide some kind of vent to free the pipe from air. An ordinary air cock will re- quire frequent attention. The air will take care of itself if a small vent pipe is run from the highest part of the flow, just before it drops, to the level of the expansion tank, but care should be tak- en to allow for "boiling over." Another plan would be to run a vent pipe, with a pet cock at the end, to the kitchen, where it could be occasionally tested for air. HEATING SMALL HOUSE. I should like your advice on heating a house 28x80 feet, which is six feet to the gutter and has eighteen inches of glass in the north wall and twenty- seven inches in the south wall. The east end and gable are glass; the west end is covered by the service shed. The house is about thirteen feet to the ridge. I shall use hot water heat and wish to maintain a temperature of 50 degrees when it is zero outside. I have enough 2-inch pipe to run the length of the house six times, one house length of 4-inch and the rest 1%-inch. The 4-inch was formerly used for the flow. Would you buy 2^-inch pipe for flows or use the 2-inch and the 1%-inch for the returns! I have also one house length of 21^-inch. L. E. S.— Mich.

The Florists' Review 109 How to Keep the Greenhouse Heating System Perfect this Winter W HEN you start the heating system this winter you may find water dripping from sm{ill leaks or cracks in the boiler. Putting off the repair may mean serious trouble later with heavy bills to face. The proper thing to do is to pour "X" Liquid into the boiler now. This will repair the leaks and t>revent new ones. "X" is a marvelous Liquid. When poured in the boiler it in- stantly combines with the water. In sizzling out through the leak or crack the "X" is changed by the oxygen in the air from a liquid into a solid, thus repairing the break. The heat in the boiler then hardens this repair, making it as tough as metal, so that it will stand over 2000 pounds pressure. The surplus "X" being left in the system automatically stops all new leaks which may develop due to expansion, or from other causes. In this way "X" makes the boiler (and in a hot water system, the en- tire system) LEAKPROOF. Keep "X" always in the water and you will never have trouble from leaks, cracks, rust or scale. **X** Eliminates Rust and Scale. Saves Coal "X" positively prevents all metal from pitting and rust. It elim- inates scale in the boiler by chemically preventing the lime and other scale-formini matter in the water from crusting on the boiler walls. In this way WC" Liquid makes the boiler RUSTPROOF and SCALE PROOF. Jet '*X** Liquid from your steamfitter — or we will \hip direct, postage prepaid, on receipt of price Greenhouse owners who use "X" Liquid report a gratifying saving in coal and greatly increased heating efficiency. "X" Liquid is the surest and most economical method of repair- ing boilers. It is used by the United States Government, by thou- sands of apartment house owners, and is recommended by over 28,000 plumbers who use it regularly. If you want to do the job yourself get a can of "X" Liquid. Other- wise ask your plumber to do the job. His charges will be very rea- sonable. The main thing is that "X" Liquid may save you thousands of dollars in an emergency. li is ivise to keep "X" Liquid always on hand. Unconditionally Guaranteed "X" will make good on any leaky or cracked boiler job— or we will return your money. You take no chances. "X" contains no cement, powder or other in- jurious substances. Beware of imitations which cannot do what the genuine "X" Liquid does. 1 Quart, % 6.00 in the U. S. A. 2 Quarts, 10.00 in the U. S.

Mums are be- ginning to be much more plentiful, a larger variety coming in each week. Gladioli are still plentiful enough to supply the demand, which has decreased since mums, cosmos and other fall flowers have started to come in. With the resumption of church and Sunday school work there has been some in- crease in the demand for decorative work, a number of florists having dec- orations for opening rallies. Various Notes. Vandals, who have destroyed plate glass windows in Newark stores to the Talue of more than $5,000 during the last three weeks, broke, among others, a large plate glass window at the store of the J.

It is reported by many that so far this fall trade has been much slower than it was during the summer months. Others report that it seems slow be- cause we have last year's September and October sales in mind. However, judging by the wholesale prices and the amount of stock received plus the un- sold, it is undoubtedly slow. Boses of the best quality fail to find a ready market at what could be considered fair prices, and a supply of American Beauty, Columbia, Maryland and Had- ley is on hand waiting for special oc- casions such as there have been re- cently. For the last few months there have been numerous bank openings, branches of local banks having been started in many sections of the city. Two large banking institutions have also opened here. These events all created an ex- cellent demand for fancy grade roses of such varieties as Beauty, Columbia, Hadley and Ophelia. Had it not been for these occasions, fancy stock would have suffered tremendously. Various Notes. Papers of incorporation have been filed by the Quality Flower Shop, Inc. The incorporators are William S. Cay- wood, Raymond Voght and Louis Sterns. The company is capitalized at $10,000. Where this store will locate is not yet known. Karl Butz, of Lockport, N.

Mr. Eiss says in a personal letter to all flo- rists and growers: " The increased sale of flowers in Buffalo means everything to the grower, retailer and wholesaler and each branch should do its part in this campaign, by putting its shoulder to the wheel to make this week the banner flower week of the year."

CHICAQO A Glazing Putty of Real Value In all our experience and inyestigation we had never found a preparation for bulbing over the outside of a greenhouse that was quite satisfactory, until we ran across PERMANITB. This was about four years ago . At that time we set about investigating the merits of PERMANITB and proceeded to watch the results of its application to greenhouse roofs. Last year we were entirely convinced of its high quality and durability, and ac- cepted the western agency for the sale of these goods. We applied PERMANITE to hundreds of greenhouse roofs, over almost every part of the United States. The results obtained were highly satis- factory indeed. Glass roofs of all kinds, both old and new, were made water-tight and air-tight, saving thousands of plants from being spoiled by water dripping on them and saving many hundreds of tons of coal by making the roofs proof against the wind and storms of winter. We give PERMANITE our unqualified endorsement and recommend it highly for all kinds of glazing. We have a very large stock on hand in our warehouse und can ship imme- diately.

There has also been consid^able corsage work and decoration work for weddings. The shortage of stock is the worst trouble at the present time. No asters of any account are available, so that medium- priced pieces are hard to make up. Koses are scarce, but are becoming more plentiful. Carnations, also, are scarce, with the prices advancing. In fact, there is an upward trend of prices all along the line. With the large in- crease in glass area of all the growers around Toronto, the growing market for flowers should be partially met. _ Various Notes. Dunlop's is going ahead with another house, to be completed this year. Nearby the Bedford Park Florists have the stakes in for their first greenhouse at Richmond Hill. Mr. and Mrs. Dunlop and Frank Dun- lop are down in New Jersey looking after the growing of the Dunlop rose, which has had wonderful success. An- nouncement of another new rose by Mr. Dunlop, of another color, but probably with as good keeping qualities, will be made before long. The Toronto Retail Florists' Club held its first social evening at its club rooms September 29. A large number of friends were entertained. Mrs. Moore entertained the club at her apart- ment October 6. This month, as the Canadian Thanksgiving day is October 13, the business meeting will be com- bined with the social October 27. About twenty from Toronto will at- tend the F. T. D. convention in Buf- falo October 14 and 15. In a letter Fred Dicks stated that London, Ont., would also be well represented. There has been a large increase in the F. T. D. mem- bership in Canada recently and several new members will be announced before the convention. Mr. Tyrrell, of Edmonton, has been in the city renewing acquaintanceships. He and his brother have stores at Cal- gary and Edmonton, operating under the name of the Tyrrell Floral Co. Busi- ness in the west is good. The advertis- ing of "Say It with Flowers" is mak- ing an increased demand for flowers in western Canada, just as it is in the east. J. J. H.

Figure Costs by the Year A wise business man figures costs by the year, right down the line, and especially so if his business has to do with ^greenhouses. He knows, either by experience or from a close study of the subject, that the only businesslike method of determining material costs in greenhouse building is by the year — first cost and up-keep cost. CYPRESS, "the wood eternal" for greenhouse construction, is positively the cheapest wood to use, fissured by its years on the job, without repairs or replacements. All good constructors in these days are insisting on genuine "Tide- Water" Cypress, "The Wood Eternal" — every board and bundle bearing the famous Cypress Trade-mark. Vol. 3, CYPRESS Pocket Library, is a little book filled with a big bunch of facts and figures about greenhouse construction— profitable reading.

PANSIES PANSY PARK PERFECTION is a mixture of more than 60 thoroughbred varieties of Giant Show and fancy Pansles and includes the new varieties from American and European special- ists. I have received thousands of testimonials from florists and amateurs In all sections of the country. Many of my florist customers say that my Pansles are the best in all respects that they ever had. A few samples: From C. C. Wonne- man, Mexico, Mo.: "The Pansy plants arrived in best possible condition, were strong, sturdy and well rooted. I have bought the best seeds and plants possible, but have never been able to pro- duce anything to equal yours. I have bought from you for the past 12 years and have never seen such a variety of colors." From Gude Bros. Co., Washington, D. C. : "The Pansy plants re- ceived from you last fall were entirely satisfac- tory in every particular. We shall probably want 5000 or 10,000 in the near future." From Harry W. Stewart, Rhlnebeck, N. Y.: "Send me 6000 of your Pansy Park Perfection Pansy plants. I saw a house of them last winter and they were the finest I ever saw." I have the largest stock of hardy fleld-grown plants for the wholesale trade in America. They were grown from seed sown thinly in light sandy soil broadcast and they have extra good roots. Plants from early sown seed, 6 to 9 leaves, 1000, $5.60; 600, $2.76; 6000, $26.00; 10,000, $48.00. Medium size, 6 to 7 leaves. 1000, $4.60; 500, $2.50; 5000, $21.00; 10,000, $40.00. My Special Cut Flower Strain produces enor- mous flowers on extra long stems, and the best colors mixed in the right proportion for the cut flower trade. I have only about 75,000 of this strain.

Now try giving different ones different treatments and see the time it will take, and the money it will cost. After you are all through the first way would prove itself to yield the best results. It's exactly the same with greenhouse building. We can set our machines, and train our men to run certain materials through in a cert.'.in way. Every house of that lot will then be exactly like every other house. One just as good a£ the ■ ^her. You actually get a better «4reenhouse. And best of all, it costs you less in the getting. No greenhouse manufacturer really knows exactly what special features are going to cost. How can he know about something he has never done before ? Just naturally, he allows enough so he won't lose money. You have to pay in must cases more than it is actually worth. But when it comes to standard houses, we know exactly what every part costs down to a penny. You get the benefit of that, just as much as we do. You pay for exactly what you get. You know you are GETTING a full DOLLAR'S WORTH FOR EVERYTHING YOU PAY. We are the first greenhouse manufacturers who have had the courage to come right out and lay the cards all down on the table face up and PUBLISH a greenhouse price, so anybody and every- body would know it. Some of our highly esteemed competitors endeavored to persuade us that it would be bad policy. Others have endeavored to belittle the idea in their advertisements. But you know, just as well as we do, that whether it is a private or a commercial house, the fairest deal and the squarest deal is the standard house, made in standard stock sizes. If it wasn't better for you, it couldn't be better for us. One absolutely hinges on the other. This stock house shown, is 18x33 feet with workroom. Send for special circular giving all details.

WERTHEIMER BROTHERS THE NATIONAL FLORAL RIBBON HOUSE Owners and Operators of WERBRO RIBBON MFG. CO.. Paterson. N. J. Office and Salesroom, 19-25 East 24th Street, NEW YORK ^i •■T-- "-W y WEDDING Celebrating its tenth year, the F. T. D. drciv to Buffalo the hirgest gathering of retailers in the trade history. Discussion so keen as to require evening sessions yielded rich returns in pointers on zvire orders and retail flower store business methods to rezvard attendance from all parts of country. UST an even decade ago the J Florists' Telegraph Deliv- ery Association had its in- ception— or perhaps con- ception— at a flower show in Boston. This week the organization c e 1 e b r ated the strength it had ac- quired in those ten years. The form of the celebra- tion was a tin wedding. Albert Poche- lon first introduced it when he produced a bouquet which had for showers a tin vegetable grater and other household utensils. There seemed to be some doubt as to whether Mr. Pochelon was presenting this to himself or President Gude or the F. T. D. Association, The question was finally solved by bestow- ing it on little Wilhelmina Gude when she closed the morning session with a recitation calculated to bring out the help- ful spirit of F. T. D. atmosphere, entitled, "Is Everybody Happy f" Schling's Speech. But Max Schling put the real savor of a wedding anniversary when he brought forward a centerpiece composed of tin washbasins, tin horns and roses and asparagus. He stated that Mr. Pochelon had been called the nurse of the F. T. D. and also the mother of the F. T. D., adding that when it came to fighting for the child "mother had the pants on." He surmised that if Secre- tary Pochelon was the organization's mother, then President Gude must be the father, and he therefore presented the centerpiece as a wedding anniver- OFFICERS ELECTED President Philip Breitmeyer Detroit Vice-president Irwin Bertermann Indianapolis Secretary Albert Pochelon Detroit Treasurer W. L. Rock Kansas City Directors W. J. Smyth Chicago Karl P. Baum Knozville« Tenn. W. W. Gammage London» Ont. 1920 Meeting Place Indianapolis sary gift to "Mr. Bill Gude and Mr. Push." The spirit of fun gradually assumed the serious when Albert Pochelon held up the tin vegetable grater and said its four sides represented the varying degrees of roughness of the florists' lot, which the F. T. D. was making smoother. Next he produced a sieve, which he said would some day be used on F. T. D. members, to the further improvement, of the organization. At length he pro- duced a huge tin basin, which he said was the largest to be found in Detroit. This he gave to Chas. H. Grakelow, H. P. Knoble and W. W. Gammage, with the injunction to pass through the au- dience and fill the basin for the national publicity fund. This the trio did, Max Schling start- ing proceedings with a $100 check. The count of the basin of bills of all de- nominations totaled $685. Mr. Grake- low in reporting this at the afternoon session asked the meeting to make it $700 and offers were so thick that the total delivered to Mr. Eock was $720. Opening Session. But the fun of the proceedings liv- ened up an earnest meeting. The open- ing session, at 9:30 a. m., October 14, after an invocation by Dr. Gordon, of Buffalo, began with welcome speeches by W. H. Eiss, of the Wm. F. Kasting Co., representing the Buffalo Florists' Club, and by Mayor Buck, who won ap- plause by characterizing the F. T. D. members "as live as the wires over which they send their messages." Then S. A. Anderson followed the slogan, "Say It with Flowers," by presenting Dr. Gordon and Mayor Buck some of the Mme. Butterfly roses on exhibition in the room. Chas. H. Grakelow, of Philadelphia, said it in words with his usual effectiveness. President's Address. President Gude, wearing his servic* iioss presented at Detroit, delivered hi* address, printed in full on followinir pages, which was stated by Philip Breit- meyer to be the best ever offered t»» such a body. To consider its sugges- tions, Philip Breitmeyer, Irwin Berter - * « m ^1" * * . r. >^ - • •; N •. x- / ^ • ** 4^ « < • >* e • I ' > • k ■ A •■ • Members of the Florists' Telegfraph Delivery Association at the Buffalo Convention, October 14, 1919. ( 14 The Florists^ Review October 16, ItlO. mann and W. J. Smyth were named as a committee. Treasurer Wm. L. Eock presented his thanks for reelection to office in his absence from last year's convention. After presenting his report, printed elsewhere in this issue, he gave some facts gleaned by comparing its figures with preceding years, which showed how remarkable had be?n the growth of the F. T. D. These appear under the Kan- sas City caption "Do You Know?" in this issue. Mr. Rock urged members to study the figures of his report care- fully. Say It by Wire. Irwin Bertermann urged the sending of flowers via F. T, D. to President Wil- son in his illness. Later it was pro- posed to send to the mayor of each city represented by a florist at the Buffalo meeting a basket of flowers. Under spe- cial arrangement with a telegraph com- pany, this was done. Similar gifts were sent to King Albert of Belgium, the Prince of Wales and Cardinal Mercier. During the afternoon session, within three hours of the time the telegrams were dispatched, came a reply from Mayor Hylan of New York acknowledg- ing receipt of the flowers and sending his thanks for them. Pochelon Persuasive. Secretary Pochelon addressed the meeting with his characteristic fervor on behalf of F. T. D. betterment, giving his ideas in homeopathic doses, as they appear in this issue, with remarks interspersed to drive home his points. He urged the cooperative spirit and the F. T. D. habit. In addition to the parables of the tin- ware, he gave a challenge to critics in the asseveration that no one could get his goat easily any more, for he had a mountain goat now and anyone would have to climb high to get it. And M. Bloy set the plaster goat on the presi- dent's desk, where all might see how hard to get it was. President J. F. Ammann and Secre- tary John Young, of the S. A. F., were called to the platform during the morn- ing session. The veteran George M. Stumpp, of Now York, was also given a seat of honor there. Many Meeting Places Proposed. A long list of cities asked for the F. T. D. convention for 1920. Among them were Indianapolis, St. Louis, St. Joseph, Mo., New York, Chicago, San Francisco, Chattanooga, Atlantic City, Albany, Los Angeles, Philadelphia and Toronto. Since Indianapolis had been proposed before and that seemed a good central meeting place, that city received the meeting's approval. Officers Nominated. Irwin Bertermann nominated Philip Breitmeyer as president of the F. T. D. for the coming year in glowing terms. For in 1912, when the F. T. D. was a hopeless affair in some minds, the ex- mayor of Detroit steadfastly refused to g^ve it up. He it was who nominated a forceful young man of the name of Albert Pochelon for secretary that year. In the recent illness of President Gude he had carried on the affairs of the organization in a most capable manner. So there was no dissenting voice, not even a murmur, to his acclamation as president. When nominated for vice-president. Irwin Bertermann firmly declined, stat- ing that he had held office for ten years and wished to give eomeone else a chance. But-mo one would listen to his protest. Albert Pochelon. said he must be kept in office, as he had been when he wished to resign in 1912. So the meeting, without heeding Mr. Berter- mann's refusal, proceeded to nominate directors for the three vacancies. Those nominated were Wm. J. Smyth, Chicago; J. W. Graiidy, Norfolk, Va.; Karl P. Baum, Knoxville, Tenn.; Max Schling, New York; G. E. M. Stumpp, New York; W. W. Gammage, Toronto, pnt.; Geo. E. Schulz, Louisville, Ky.; Fred C. Weber, Jr., St. Louis; Olaf J. Olson, St. Paul, and Vincent J. Gorly, St. Louis. Messrs. Smyth, Gammage and Baum were elected. It was decided to meet at Indian- apolis in 1920. Beferred for Action. Vincent J. Gorly presented his list jof birthday flowers, as given in last week's issue of The Review. His selec- tions aroused some discussion, particu- ^^ly from Chas. H. Grakelow, George Asmus and Edward Sceery. The mat- ter was eventually disposed of by Philip Breitmeyer 's moving that it be left for consideration by the board of directors. A committee composed of Chas. E. Russell and Geo. M. Geraghty recom- mended that traveling salesmen for sup- ply houses be allowed associate mem- bership in the association at a low fee, or without fee, in recognition of their services as boosters of the organization. When the committee departed to judge windows, Chairman H. P. Knoble asked for instructions as to method of judging. Discussion led to a motion by H. G. Dillemuth, of Toronto, that a scale of points be prepared by the committee which judged the windows thisyear. A letter containing many suggestions on F. T. D. betterment from E. C. Lud- wig, Pittsburgh, was deemed worthy of submission to the committee on the president's address for recommendations for action at the same time. Secretary Gets Salary. The appeal of Philip Breitmeyer that the secretary and treasurer of the or- ganization should receive more than the $12 per annum now allowed by the con- stitution met prompt approval. Mr. Breitmeyer suggested $2,000 for the secretary and $500 for the treasurer. While Mr. Pochelon was sent from the room, strong eulogies of him were de- livered. Finally the board of directors was empowered to fix such remuneration as it deemed just and reasonable. The paper of F. C. W. Brown, read at the S. A. F. convention at Detroit, on "Selling Flowers by Telegraph," was reread before the convention by Mr. Grakelow, Mr. Brown being in New Brunswick on a hunting trip. The ad- dress was recommended for study and application by Philip Breitmeyer. It was printed in The Review for Au- gust 21. Hot Discussion of Problems. The question of a minimum price for orders drew considerable attention. Philip Breitmeyer 's assertion was that the F. T. D. must stand for the public and consider its pleasure, as well as the florists' profit, in such matters. The customer's satisfaction is worth the ex- pense to the retailer, he said. Albert Pochelon urged a higher level for the trade, advocating prices that would pay the growers for their labor and skill and leave sufficient to 'hire « store help of the high class necessary for the flower business if it is to be high grade. The subject of competitive organiza- tions formed the basis of warm debate in the latter half of the afternoon. The matter of dealing with them was in the end left to the board of directors. Past President a Director. Karl P. Baum offered a resolution em- powering the board of directors to add past presidents to its number. In his anticipation of soon coming under the rule, President Gude asked Treasurer Rock to put the question, which was strongly carried. In closing the afternoon session, a let- ter to the family of Tom J. Wolfe, of Waco, Tex., a director at the time of his recent death, was ordered drafted. The committee selected for this work was Edward Sceery, Karl P. Baum and Chas. H. Brown. Evening Session. On the evening of the opening day, a session was called at 8 o'clock, prin- cipally for the stereopticon presentation of Cleveland's publicity work, shown before at various trade society meet- ings. Mrs. Ella Grant Wilson gave a talk on publicity, using Cleveland's achievements in this line as an example. Signs of the Times. Henry Penn occupied a considerable part of the morning session October 15 with an address on publicity. He intro- duced the "Say It with Flowers" bill- boards and proceeded to take orders. Buffalo and Cleveland members ordered twenty for each city. Detroit took five. Seventy-five were placed at this session. J. F. Ammann also made a strong talk for publicity. The Randall fountain given as a prize for the window decorating contest was shown on the floor of the convention. Window Display Awards. The window contest started by Sam Seligman two years ago has developed to an important feature of P. T. D. conventions. This year twelve were in competition. The prizes assumed such proportions that Mr. Seligman wiAdrew his $25 and asked that it be applied to other purposes of the asso- ciation. The A. L. Randall Co., Chi- cago, offered a $225 electric fountain for first prize. Paul Klingsporn offered for the Chicago Flower Growers' Asso- ciation, Chicago, a check for $100, and Henry A. Dreer, Inc., Philadelphia, also gave a check for $100. Two windows were entered by W. J. Palmer & Son and by S. A. Anderson, and one by Felton's Flower Shop, Colo- nial Flower Shop, A. T. Reichart, Matt Karpenski, Wm. Scott Co., John Kra- mer, Stroh's Flower Shop and W. H. Grever. The committee which judged the win- dows, on the afternoon of October 14, was composed of H. P. Knoble, Cleve- land; Ira S. Harper, Pittsburgh; Henry Penn, Boston; Miss Amelia Gude, Washington, D. C, and Miss Gammage, London, Ont. Their awards were extremely difficult to make, since all twelve windows were of high quality. First prize was given to the window of S. A. Anderson, at 440 Main street, a globe on wkich the OCTOBBB 16, 1919. The Florists^ Review 15 continents were made of white daisies, along which ran messengers, obviously in response to messages sent on wires carried to the globe from telegraph in- struments in the front of the window. About the window were handsome baskets of various kinds. Second prize went to W. J. Palmer & Son's window at 258 Delaware avenue. Third was taken by the Wm. Scott Co., at Main and Balcom streets. All the displays were highly commended. Returns ou Questioiinaire. Of the questionnaires sent out by Secretary Pochelon, 217 were returned. The basis for compiling F. T. D. statis- tics from these blanks becomes better each year, but still the returns are not sufficiently large to insure accurate figures. The P. T. D. business of 132 firms during the last year was altogether $349,076.36, or an average of $2,644.52. The average on outgoing orders was $5.22. The average on incoming orders was $4.92. Increase in P. T- ^- business since joining the association averaged ninety per cent, running individually from ten to 1,000 per cent. The contributions of members to the publicity fund totaled $5,988.50 during the last year, of which $3,780 is yearly subscriptions. On other questions the lack of replies and the number of evasive answers cut down still further the basis for estab- lishing figures or opinion. The Exhibits. A large rase of fifty long-stemmed Mme. Butterfiy roses from the E. G. Hill Co., Richmond, Ind., was much ad- mired. Earl Mann brought the blooms up on the sleeper with him, but his qualms about their condition on un- packing after twenty-four hours in the box were groundless. They traveled splendidly. On the president's table was a large basket of the new rose, Frank W. Dun- lop, exhibited by John H. Dunlop, of Toronto, Ont., which drew much praise from admirers. A plant stand recently put on the market by the A. W. Smith Co., of Pittsburgh, was shown by Ira C. Har- per. The stand is in two pieces, of cast-iron, and is made in three sizes, 18- inch, 24-inch and 36-inch, the extension arm permitting an increase in height of one foot in the smallest size, eighteen inches in the second and twenty-four inches in the largest. The decorations in the meeting room were of Sylvia dahlias, from the Spring Lake Dahlia Farms, Spring Lake, N. Y. The retailers of Buffalo contributed the force to do the decorating, which drew much praise. In the lobby W. A. Manda, of South Orange, If. J., filled several tables with blooms of Dahlia Mandaiana and ferns and foliage plants for which he and his name are noted. Two billboards, of the type shortly to be delivered by the national public- ity campaign committee to florists throughout the country, covered one side of the meeting room. The bill- board is 7%x20, designed according to the adopted S. A. F. sign, with "Say It with Flowers" in gold script lettering on a green background. They are of Philip Breitmeyer. (Preflldent-elect of the Florists' Telegraph Delivery AssoclatioD.) sheet metal, in eight sections, which are nailed to a wooden frame. Behind the platform, across the front of the room was a large blackboard, on which were F. T. D. posters and draw- ings and newspaper pages showing Buf- falo florists' advertising in the local papers Sunday, October 12. W. J. Palmer & Son, Stroh 's, Charles Sandi- ford, L. H. Neubeck, Reichert's, W. H. Sievers, Scott the Florist, Schoenhut, the Colonial Flower Shop, S. A. Ander- son, C. R. Fulton and Wiese were rep- resented. Other photographs were of the new billboards, of the store of the W. L. Rock Flower Co., at Kansas City, of the decorations of Chas. Grakelow in the parade for Philadelphia's Home- coming week and of Fred C. Weber's store in St. Louis. The Gary Cement Works, of Cleve- land, O., was represented by S. Stern, who opened cans of Gary glazing ce- ment to show greenhouse owners. For the work of the Buffalo florists in decorating the hall and for the ex- hibits of roses by the E. G.

He was in New Brunswick, hunt- ing with Wallace R. Piersoii, of Tarry- town, N. Y., and RomAti' J, Irwin, of New York. Frank Stuppy, of St. Joseph, Mo., led some other F, T, I), members on a hunt- ing trip after prairie chickens in north- eastern Nebraska. In the party were J. J. Hess, of Omaha, Edward Furrow, of Guthrie, Okla., and Herman Frey,. of Lincoln, Neb. In Mr. Stuppy 's place at the convention was his brother-in- law, D. W. Murphy, who has been tak- ing hold of the business since Mr. Stup- py's nervous troubles compelled his ab- sence. Grandy, ' ' Norfolk 's Telegraph Flo- rist, ' ' passed around lead pencils to the visitors. On the chairs in the meeting room was an illustrated account of the F. T. D. window with which the L. C. Hecock Floral Co., Elyria, O., won the Better Business Club's window contest there. It was quoted from the Chronicle-Tele- gram of October 1. A. F. Borden, of the Eedondo Floral Co., Los Angeles, sent a telegram ex- pressing his regret at being absent, and good wishes for the association. A special delivery letter from Sam Seligman, now in business for himself in New York, was read. Geo. E. Schulz wrete from Louisville, Ky., recommending an appreciation in the form of a gift of some sort for Sec- retary Pochelon. 16 The Florists^ Review OCTOBHE 16, 1919. Charles H. Grakelow, who has come to be known as the silver tongued mem- ber, presented a silver table service to Secretary Pochelon in a speech which was full of fervor. Local Florists Active The florists of Buffalo had industri- ously prepared for the F. T. D. conven- tion. The results of their work were strongly evident in the newspaper pub- licity, in the hotel arrangements, in the decorations of the meeting hall, which drew considerable praise, and in the luncheon given by the Buffalo Florists' Club on the opening day. S. A. Anderson was the leader, but all the retailers gave him strong sup- port in his efforts. Sunday, October 12, the Buffalo Courier filled three pages with florists' advertisements and mate- rial concerning the F. T. D. The papers of the convention days gave the ses- sions liberal space. This result was the effect, probably, of flowers sent the edi- tors by the F. T. D. board of directors on the eve of the convention opening. The Hotel Iroquois, where excellent facilities were provided for the meet- ings, carried a huge sign of the F. T. D. convention over its entrance. The luncheon was remarkable in the abundance of good food and the absence of oratory. The latter was confined to the meetings of the association, where it was plentiful.

At the meetings well over 200 were present; optimistic estimators said more. The registration was not so complete as was desired, and therefore no definite figures can be given. ; The rule of the F. T. D., tacitly ob- served, to meet as centrally as possible, has been largely responsible for the in- creasing attendance each year. This year's meeting was the farthest east of any. As a result the Atlantic seaboard had a good representation, but the mid- dle states and southwest were in good attendance also. Canada appeared strongly at the meetings.

SECRETARY'S CELEBRATION. [From the report of Albert Pochelon, secretary of the F. T. D., presented at the Buffalo con- vention, October 14, 1919.] Perhaps none of you are aware of the fact that this is a special event in the history of our F. T. D.; we are cele- brating our tenth anniversary. Of course you also understand that several similar organizations had started out long before our good old friend, Mr. Valentine, took the initia- tive in 1909 to bring about the present organization, but all fell by the way- side because of lack of cooperation, and even our present organization would have been dooiped after Mr. Valentine, Mr. Bertermann and Mr, Rock's hard work in the year of 1911, when Mr. Valentine absolutely refused to again become president of the F. T. D., Mr. Bertermann resigned and Mr. Rock did the same. It was only through the efforts of Mr. Breitmeyer, at the Chi- cago S. A. F. convention, that the pres- ent organization was brought about. See your proceedings of that meeting and convince yourself. I am proud of his action at that time, because from 1911 we have kept on growing, slowly but surely; we have weathered many a storm and have overcome a great deal of trouble. Steady Growth. In 1911 we had fifty-seven members, but even these original fifty-seven members were not at all sincere, or as sincere as they should have been, and it is strange to say that, with few ex- ceptions, younger men, or men just starting in the florists' business, have taken a much keener interest than some of the old established firms, who will forever remain under the impression that they will get the business anyhow, as they are so well known, or so good looking. As I said before, in 1911 our mem- bership numbered fifty-seven. Today that same list shows 1,206 members, rep- resenting 829 towns. The gospel of the F. T. D. has reached almost every nook and corner of the earth, especially in the United States and Canada, and why should this not be greater and bigger if each of our members does three things, and does them sincerely, for his own in- terest as well as the interest of our entire organization? Three Ways to Help. First of all, orders that our members at times are compelled to send to non- members should be followed up imme- diately with a personal letter inviting such a florist to join and work with us. Second, as soon as a member has filled an order for you, pay him promptly, as this has helped to build up the high standing that the F. T. D. has as an organization. Third, if you get an order from a non- member and you fill it without making sure oi the party's credit, write him a letter and tell him that you will not do so again unless he becomes a mem- ber of the F. T. D., which will estab- lish his credit; that yoa have filled his order only to protect the public and have the confidence of our patrons. Our guarantee fund is like the rock of Gibraltar back of our F. T. D. A great deal more earn be said about our results in the last eight years, bnt I never iid like to listen to a real long sermon and I am not goiag to reai. ene to you. October 16, 1919. The Florists^ Review 17 yi^l^l«i!l>S4II^I^WWli841l*Sa!iSill«in^ THE PRESIDENT'S ADDRESS ONE YEAR ago, when we met in the city of Cleveland, we gathered under very different conditions from those existing today. Then we met overshadowed with gloom on account of the world war. Today we meet full of optimism, with prosperity written on our banner, and our good ship sails along, so "Get into the right channel," "Concentrate and properly direct your efforts," and "Never put off until to- morrow what can be done today." During the last year the interest shown by our Canadian brothers far exceeds all previous records by the splendid body of men composing the Canadian florists. May their work con- tinue and our organization soon be as strong proportionately in Canada as it is in the United States. Our European Connections. During the last year several good European houses have been added to the F. T. D. and we hope ere long to be represented in every civilized country on the globe, so that it may be as easy to deliver orders in Africa, Hawaii, Philippine islands or Japan as it is to deliver them in the United States and Canada. The order of mind possessed by the man who steps out from the crowd and dares is the order of mind that will recognize opportu- nities and grasp them. The maHn who dares is the man who does. The man who will take no risks has little to risk usually. Like a child in the pri- mary department, he is under the control of stronger minds and he re- mains an underling until he wakes up to his conscious manhood and as- serts his right of initiative. Faith in one 'a own ability and the value of one's own ideas is the first re- quirement for no- table achievement. Most men have enough originality to work out a suc- cessful career, but they don't believe in themselves. They will discard an idea that comes into their own minds, but will hail it with belief and interest if read in the paper or suggested by an- other. Like the case of the family phy- sician: A mother may know perfectly The address of William F. Gude, president of the Florists' Telegraph Delivery Associa- tion, delivered at the convention at Buffalo, October 14, 1919. what to do for her sick child, but she does not apply this knowledge with assurance until the doctor calls and tells her to do so. Our membership has more than doubled since our last meeting and resig- nations have been few. Our slogan, "Say It with Flowers," has come to the front wonderfully in the last twelve months and ere another twelve months go by we hope all F. T. D. members and other florists will have all their automobiles, boxes, tags, stationery, ad- vertisements and in fact everything labeled with the slogan, * ' Say It with Flowers." Competitive Organizations. The highest compliment that can be paid to any individual or organization is the fact that another organization or person imitates them; so rather than feel alarmed at other organizations imitating us, I see in it an advantage, because in order to do any business they will have to advertise and by talking flowers they will help us. Howev^, 1 WHltam F. Gude. (President of the Florists' Tel««raph Delivery AsaociattoD.) see no need of any other organization composed of retail florists, because the F. T. D., with thousands of members, can cover the field and give such serv- ice as it has in the last years, service that was never dreamed of years ago. With the S. A. F., in which all of our members hold membership, and with a thorough publicity campaign, as is now or- ganized and conducted, we need have no- fear for the future. Let us dwell for a moment on the sending and receiving of orders. That we may have the full confidence of the public, when we are called upon to pro- duce the original order, we must be ready and willing to do so. It is vitally necessary that all orders should be ac- curately written and accurately relayed, so that the person receiving the order can correctly book it and fill it for the full amount, giving, if possible, better attention in the way of service than if the customer came into the store and ordered the flowers himself. Bills and. Collections. In the matter of bills there is much to be desired in forwarding an invoice promptly upon delivery of the order, and, if for any reason the order could not be delivered, notifying the sender at once, giving the particulars. Bills should be mailed the -first of each month and promptly followed up if not paid. The clearing house under the leadership of our eflScient secretary has done wonderful work in having members and others pay up more promptly and also in collecting bills that have not been 1 paid. This office has done phenom- enal work in the short time which it has existed. Too much praise cannot be given to our worthy secre- tary, Albert Poch elon, who has worked morning, noon and night to push the F. T. D. He has been such an engineer in the workroom of our organization that we cannot but esteem him highly. All honor and praise to our secretary. Also much credit is due our vice- pTdsident, Philip Breitmeyer, for so ably offieiatiHg^ dur- ing my recent ill- [OooUoued on paire 71 . 18 The Florists^ Review October 16, 191». ^l.V!!^t^|ASiJ|,V!!^[^[^lXSill^t^J[XS/Jt^!^ PRODS BY POCHELON AT the Buffalo convention of the F. T. D., Secretary Pochelon de- livered a sharp attack against or- ganizations seeking to operate in the same field, but for private gain. He asserted that the majority of those who ally themselves with such enterprises do so without knowledge of their true charaeter. For the consideration of members, he said: 1. Every letter sent from florist to florist should be signed, instead of "Yours truly," "Yours for more F. T. D. Cooperation." • • « • 2. Every letter addressed to F. T. D. members shall be addressed "John Jones, P. T. D. Florist, Flowerville. " • • • • 3. Now please let us hear from some of our members who take care of F. T. D. service in the smaller towns. • « » • 4. Have you ever noticed that the few who find fault with our F. T. D. organization, its work and rules, have not attended any of our meetings, nor have they ever done anything which would benefit all retail florists? 5. Let us have a question box at every meeting, where anyone can un- load a question without signing his name and get the opinion of all present. • • • • 6. The home of the F. T. D. is not Detroit. The F. T. D. should have a home in every flower shop. Eesults will not be long forthcoming. • • * • 7. The F. T. D. knows no boundary lines. I would form a "League of Flo- rists" throughout the world and make them all use the slogan, "Say It with Flowers." • » • • 8. At the next National Flower Show let our exhibit be a working F. T. D. shop, relaying orders right from the show, the F. T. D. paying all bills and receiving the usual trade discount, twenty per cent for all orders sent out. The public would surely take advan- tage and send a souvenir from a Na- tional Flower Show. The expense for such work would, if carried out with enough F. T. D. enthusiasm, easily be cared for by the twenty per cent dis- count. • • • • 9. Let us make a strong insurance company out of- our guarantee fund. Albert PocheIoo« (Tlrel«M Secretary of the Florlsta' Telegraph Delivery issoclatlon.) No better advertisement could be had than to be able to pay promptly from the clearing house all bills past due, and make the member owing such bills first lose the twenty per cent and then pay the F. T. D. clearing house. • • • • 10. Strange to say that the large poster membership list sent out for Christmas, 1918, was criticized at our January board meeting, yet our office got many calls for this kind of a list to be displayed to the public and I think if we all would put a list of this kind, with our membership of 1,200, in our windows for Christmas it would make the public sit up and take notice. The time has passed when we need to hide our connections from florist to florist. • • • • 11. Can the F. T. D. put enough ef- fort in the S. A. F. to induce the mother organization to double its subscription toward the national publicity fundi I am sure our F. T. D. organization will double and perhaps be able to triple what it has done. • • • • 12. A new directory is being worked on continually in our office and we have now approximately 6,000 towns in our card files, showing exactly how service can be given. • • • « 13. More publicity should be given in the trade papers by our entire mem- bership. The trade papers have never refused to print articles on the work of the F. T. D. and how to handle or- ders, but remember that for years such articles had to come from the F. T. D. office. Why not for a change let some of these articles, illustrating experi- ences, etc., come direct from our mem- bers! • • • • 14. F. T. D. window decorations should be prepared and loaned to our F. T. D. members for display in their home towns. • • * • 15. The Canadian florist trade paper of late has boosted the F. T. D. strongly and is wor^y of our consideration. Our American trade papers all of them have given us hearty support, more so than in former years. We are spending money with them for advertising when- ever it is wise and practical for us to carry our membership list in them. Let us thank them for what they have done and let us ask them to keep up their good work. CAUFOBNIA FUCHSIA?

In presenting my report as treasurer of your association, I want to call to your attention the splendid growth of the association during the last fourteen nionths, as reflected in these financial jstatements. The secretary 's report will, no doubt, give you information concern- ing the increase in membership and the general business and activities of the association for the year, but the finan- cial improvement has been so marked that I want to make some comparisons, so that those of you who do not take the time to analyze and study these reports will realize fully the advancement that has been made by the association in tlie last fourteen months. You will doubtless recall that at the last annual meeting the fiscal year of our association was changed from July 31 to September 30, which accounts for the fact that this report covers a period of fourteen months instead of the usual twelve months, and following the usual custom I have also prepared in conjunc- tion with the annual statement a state- ment covering the entire period of operation of our association, a printed copy of which has been mailed to each member. One Year Beats Seven. Do you know that during the year just closed the amount collected as ini- tiation fees from new members was just $80 less than the entire amount col- lected during the previous seven years that our association has been in exist- ence? Do you know that there was an increase of over 500 per cent in the re- ceipts from this source over the pre- ceding yeart Do you know that we collected $14,- 473.78 in annual dues from the members last year and that we only collected $13,408.90 in the seven years previous? It was an actual gain of $1,064.88 for the year over the entire previous period of operation t Do you know also that we added $6,209 to our guarantee fund last year, contributed by new members, and that we were called on to make only one refund of $10 to one lone retiring mem- ber and that we now have a balance in this fund of $14,607.94? Certificate Wanted. And while I am on the subject of our guarantee fund, I would like to suggest that our association issue to each of its members some printed form of guaran- tee or indemnifying bond, duly executed by the president, with the seal of the association attached and attested by the secretary, so that each member will have some tangible evidence of his pro- tection against financial loss through his dealings with fellow members. As most of you are doubtless aware, some of our competitors 'are offering bonds of reputable bonding companies as an inducement and, while our members un- derstand pretty generally, I think, that they have ample protection, I believe it would be more satisfactory to all of us to have in our .possession some tangible evidence of it and I am satisfied that isuch a document would aid materially in securing new members. There can be no question as to the security and re- sponsibility behind these bonds, for, as I have just stated, we now have a fund of $14,600 and in the eight years since the organization of our association we have been called on to pay, and have ipaid, only $9.21 for delinquent mem- bers. I sincerely hope that some action will be taken along this line at this meeting and I would much like to see a committee appointed to draft a suitable document. Beceipts and Expenses. There are other comparisons to which I might call your attention, such as the sale of Mothers' day stamps and post- ers, which amounted to $431.50 for the last year, as against $62.45 for the year previous, an increase of nearly 700 per cent, but I will not go farther into the smaller items, but in closing I do want to point out the proportion of increase in the receipts as against the proportion of increase in the expenditures. During the period just closed the total receipts from all sources amounted to $24,617.58, while the total receipts for the preceding year, which was the most successful year by far that the asso- ciation had enjoyed up to that time, was $9,684.77, an increase of 254 per cent, while the expenses of the year just closed were $13,959.82 as against $9,534.34. for the preceding year, an increase of only 146 per cent. Or 1 might present it in another way, which would bring to your mind more clearly, perhaps, the wonderfully successful year we have just closed, by stating that for the year ended July 31, 1918, our expenses were 98 per cent of the total receipts for the year and we closed the year with a balance in our general fund of $878.38, while for the period just closed our expenses were only 56 per cent of the receipts and we closed the year with all bills paid and a balance to the credit of the general fund of $5,337.14, and a total balance in the treasury for both the guarantee fund and general fund of $19,945.08. Can you imagine how anxious I was, when I prepared these statements and realized what a splendid showing we had made the past year, to tell you of them? I could hardly wait for the time to come when I could present these facts to you. We may well congratulate our- selves. TBEASUBER'S BEPOBT. The following is the report of William L.

The name of the occupant of the building appears in smaller, less prominent signs by the entrance. Mr. Geddis is following a definite policy. Not that he believes in hiding his light under a bushel. He is quite aware of the value of advertising, so much aware that he knows wholesalers' advertising that reaches the public's eye is wasted. So instead of advertising his house to the public he advertises the trade as a whole to the public by urg- ing it to "Say It with Flowers." $19,945.08 ADVERTISES TBADE, NOT SELF. "We are not interested in advertis- ing our wholesale house to the public and the retailers know where we are already," said D. S. Geddis, in com- menting on the fact that before the passage of a recent city ordinance the automobile trucks of the St. Lrouis Wholesale Cut Flower Co. bore only the trade sign, "Say It with Flowers," for two years — ever since the slogan was adopted. Last month the St. Louis city council passed an ordinance requiring the name of the owner to appear on all delivery trucks and since September 15 the name of the firm has appeared on the automobiles of the St. Louis Wholesale Cut Flower Co. as it ap- pears in the accompanying illustration. But previously the two trucks, as they dashed through the streets, carried only the exhortation to the public to "Say It with Flowers." The same idea is carried out on the new building of this company. Con- spicuously placed in the center of the bright front is one of the large signs, USINGER'S UTTERANCES. Several weddings and a rush of funeral work have kept the Posy Shop, of Fre- mont, O., busy. This firm has added a line of art goods for the holiday season. "Those in quest of gifts cannot get away without buying, for they surely will find something either in flowers or in art objects," is the philosophy of Miss Moore in upholding the fine points of the combination. "Better than evar and still going strong," quoted Charles E. Barton, of Norwalk, O., emerging from a bunch of funeral work. Besides being a success- ful florist, Mr. Barton sells pills, "and I don't want a repetition of last year's ills," quoth he! Speaking of hobbies, D. R. White, of Sandusky, O., has one in the shape of a fruit farm, "not large, but full of fruit, and I'm not sitting up night* feeding it coal," remarks Mr. White. This farm may take the place of the greenhouses soon, as farming is his old job and the call of the farm is strong. • • • • D. Vogt & Sons, of Coldwater, Mich., liave reported a strong business so far this fall. The stock is in excellent con- dition and the first mums are being cut. W. T. U.

The regular monthly meeting of the New York Florists' Club was held in the club's rooms, Grand Opera House building, Twenty-third street and Eighth avenue, Monday evening, Octo- ber 13, with a good attendance in spite of the fact that the day was a legal holiday. The principal business of the evening was the consideration of new quarters for the club. A. M. Henshaw, chairman of the committee on quarters, reported that an insistence on the part of the trustees of the Engineering Societies building rendered further negotiations for quarters therein impossible until the club's charter had been amended so as to eliminate one of the objects for or- ganization which it included. As this did not seem to be a serious matter, the comparative advantages of two rooms in the building were discussed by W. A. Manda, John Scheepers, Maurice Fuld, P. W. Popp, John Young, Henry Weston, Arthur Herrington and Wm. C. Eick- ards, Jr. The opinion seemed to be general that the larger room of the two was the more desirable, in that it would provide an opportunity to hold small flower shows and give lectures in which the public could be interested. The feeling was that the work of the club was not made as public as it should be. The rent of this room, on yearly lease, was to be $45 per night, but this was not considered to be a barrier. Finally, on motion of Jos. A. Manda, the com- mittee was empowered to enter into a lease of the room when negotiations were again possible. As it was decided that the necessary change in the char- ter— which was merely the elimination of the words, "social recreation of its mem- bers," from the paragraph setting forth the club's objects — should be authorized in the same manner as amendments to the by-laws, the secretary was, on motion, instructed to insert in the notice calling the next meeting a paragraph announc- ing that a formal vote would be taken on the subject. Plans for the Flower Show. For the flower show committee, Ar- thur Herrington reported progress. The committee had been in session all that afternoon and preparations for the show to open in the Grand Central Palace March 15 were found to be in excellent shape. Secretary Young had reported that more trade space on the exhibition had already been sold than had been apportioned for any previous show, thus showing the support the project was receiving from prospective commercial exhibitors. In the competi- tive section, matters were not of course so well advanced at such an early date, but it did not seem likely that any anxiety need be felt as to the outcome. Secretary Young remarked upon the work of Treasurer Frederic E. Jfewbold in the direction of inaugurating special features for the show. Through Mr. Newbold, the Garden Clubs of America had become interested in the show and were arranging to occupy considerable space on the second floor, there to hold meetings and receptions, time periods being devoted to different clubs in the organization. The tea garden was to be pperated on a more elaborate scale than ever before and some prominent societies would take part in the man- agement. He pointed out that the Gpand Central Palace was now under new management and the interests were desirous of cooperating to the fullest extent with the committee in order to make the show a complete success. New Members. The following were elected to mem- bership: A. I. Dunn, 148 Front street. New York; Charles Fremd, 148 Front street. New York; S. S. Skidelsky, 50 Park place. New York; Harry W. C. Herrmann, 2897 Fulton street, Brook- lyn; George B. Cannon, 43 Atlantic street, Stamford, Conn.; Leo Osternei, Digny avenue. New York; James Brown, 1170 Broadway, New York; William J. Manda, 191 Valley road. West Orange, N. J., life membership. John Buckman, of H. F. Michell Co., Philadelphia, was proposed for election at the next meeting. Memorial Resolutions. On motion of Secretary Young, a com- mittee was ordered to be appointed to prepare resolutions on the death of John B. Deamud. Eesolutions on the deaths of Joseph G. Leikens and Meyer Otile were presented by committees appointed for the purpose and were passed unani- mously, copies being ordered sent to the relatives of the deceased. A committee was also appointed to prepare resolu- tions on the death of August Jahn, Brooklyn. The committee on awards, through Chairman C. W. Knight, announced that the everbearing Easpberry La France, awarded the club's preliminary certificate October, 1918, had been in- spected by the committee under grow- ing conditions at Stamford, Conn., Oc- tober 8, 1919, and a full certificate of merit was recommended to be issued to John Scheepers, the disseminator. On motion the report of the committee was accepted and the issue of the certifi- cate directed. Subscription to Publicity Campaign. The club by vote on a motion made by Secretary Young approved of the appropriation of $500 as a subscription to the national publicity campaign. John Watson, secretary of the Amer- ican Nurserymen's Association, and J. C. Vaughan, of Vaughan's Seed Store, Chicago, were present as members and made short addresses. C. H. Totty Co., Madison, N. J., staged a handsome vase of the new pink Eose Frank W. Dunlop, and Philip F. Kess- ler. New York, showed a splendid vase of Bouvardia Humboldtii, both ex- hibitors receiving a vote of thanks. J. H. P. NEW YORK. The Market. Within a week the weather of four seasons has been experienced — frost, warm rains, cold rains, spring-like and midsummer temperatures — so that stock under glass as well as outdoors has been adversely affected. Away from the water, frost has blackened much of the outdoor stock, but in the territory near to market no damage to speak of has been noti,ced. Immense quantities of dahlias are arriving, some of fine qual- ity, and in the absence still of the usual flood of chrysanthemums, they move fairly well. The market is slowly approaching the condition customary at this season. On(!e weather conditions become settled, business should improve. The general demand is fair, although uneven in char- acter, one day being good and the next not at all up to standard. Eoses generally are quite plentiful, with short grades in much greater abundance than the long-stemmed grades, but prices remain pretty firm, except on open stock, which in the last day or two has been greatly in evidence. American Beauty is not in such heavy supply as it has been for some time, with the result that special grades have moved up somewhat in price. Hybrid teas are of excellent quality and clean up well. Carnations are in heavier supply, and at times move slowly. The variety Mrs. C. W. Ward sells best, selected flowers bringing 4 cents. About 1 cent to 3 cents is the range for average stock. Cattleyas are quite plentiful, although not in such abundance; as formerly at this time of year. Clearances are at times difficult without concessions in price, the demand not being particu- larly strong. The price range is 25 cents to 50 cents, with the finer hybrids bringing $1 or more. A few spray orchids are coming in, oncidiums, pha- Isenopsis and odontoglossums. Lily of the valley is in better supply, but the price on the best grades is still 20 cents to 30 cents, with inferior flow- ers and culls within a range of 4 cents to 15 cents. There are no Easter lilies to be had, but plenty of rubrums are available, at 3 cents to 6 cents. A few sweet peas are arriving, but the quality is poor. The best move at 1 cent to 2 cents per spray. The violet supply is increasing, but the quality is poor and much stock goes into the hands of street men. Asters are about fin- ished, although a few are yet seen. The supply of chrysanthemums is in- creasing, but is confined largely to the early varieties. The price range is $2 to $6 per dozen for the b.est grades. A few singles and pompons are arriving, but do not meet an active demand. Some snapdragon of fair quality is no- ticed, indoor grown, at 4 cents to 6 cents. Bouvardia is in fairly good sup- ply at 40 cents to 75 cents per bunch. Tritomas, candytuft, cosmos, ageratum and calendulas still arrive in large quan- tities, and move slowly at some price or other. Various Notes. Frank Golsner, formerly with Hentz & Nash, of the Coogan building, has taken quarters on the floor of the New York Cut Flower Exchange, in the same building, and will start business as a wholesale florist November 1. He will handle most of the cut of Golsner . & Sons, College Point, L. I. W. J. Manda, son of Joseph A. Manda, West Orange, N. J., recently was oper- ated upon for appendicitis, but is said to be making satisfactory progress to- ward recovery. The formal opening of the new cen- tral display greenhouse at the New York Botanical Garden, Bronx park, the Guggenheimer gift, is to take place Sat- urday afternoon, November 8. A spe- cial exhibition of chrysanthemums, roses, carnations, decorative plants and orchid plants, in cooperation with the Horticultural Society of New York, will be held in connection with the opening and continued during the two following 22 The Florists^ Review 0«ax)BaB 10, 1919. days. A generous prize list has been provided. The joint flower show committee of the New York Florists' Club and the Horticultural Society of New York held a meeting Monday afternoon, October 13, at the club's office, 1170 Broadway. The strike in the printing trades is still effective. Besides the Florists' Exchange, the Gardeners' Chronicle has been forced into temporary suspen- sion. The September number of the Journal of the S. A. F. was caught in the congestion preceding the strike, but appeared ultimately a few days late. Secretary Young, of the S. A. F., left at midnight October 13 for Buffalo, to attend a meeting of the publicity com- mittees. J. H. P. Sam Seligman has opened an office at 239 Fourth avenue as a resident buyer for the trade and as a jobber in florists' supplies. Mr. Seligman has had many years of experience in the business and knows what florists need. There are few men in the trade who have a wider circle of acquaintances. LOWELL, MASS. The Market. Bright, clear skies and sunshine are bringing chrysanthemums on apace. Carnations continue to improve as to length of stem and size of flower. Octo- ber 7 there occurred a killing frost which completely demolished outside flowers, thereby delighting both grow- ers and retailers. Prices continue to soar. Blooms of Golden Glow which are not large retail at $4.50 per dozen. About three years ago one would have thought $1.50 per dozen was a good price for the same size. Business has been good and all kinds of flowers have sold readily. ^ The demand for all kinds of fruit trees and ornamentals is good, chiefly because so little planting has been done for several years. Various Notes. Many greenhouse owners are painting and repairing the roofs and making other repairs and alterations. The Morris & Beals Co. October 10 had an attractive window display com- posed chiefly of Begonia Mrs. Patten. Mr. Atkinson, who for fifteen years was gardener and superintendent at the Lowell jail, has been working since August 1 as gardener at the James Walker estate at Amesbury, near the coast. Mr. Atkinson visited here last week to buy violet plants. The wave of the Sunday closing movement seems to be spreading over the country in all directions. J. L. Kenney would like to see it alight in this city. At present all the florists close at noon. Mr. Tyrrell, who had a store on Cen- tral street for the last five years, has discontinued the business. The McManmon greenhouses, which cover over one acre, have all been made water-tight this summer with Permanite. The work has just been completed. The houses are packed full of stock and everything is in good con- dition. This firm is cutting Unaka mums. Owing to the closing of the jail at Lowell, the whole of the plants from the greenhouses were sold. Harvey B. Greene was the purchaser in coopera- tion with the A. G. Pollard Co., at whose department store they were re- tailed. The plants were chiefly Boston and other ferns, begonias, dracsenas, rubber plants, and several other kinds. Patrick J. McManmon, father of J. J. McManmon, died at his home, 57 Second avenue, Pawtucketville, Octo- ber 10. He was over 80 years of age. £j. Xi. Si. MILWATJKEE, WIS. The Market. Market conditions arfe quite favorable at present. A year ago prices were stronger, but at the same time the pro- duction was less in every instance. The first and second weeks of October, 1918, saw the height of the first influenza epi- demic, when flowers were scarce and at a premium. A higher quality of stock is now available and prices, while not so high as a year ago, are flrm. October 9 a frost of killing degree affected some localities, materially shortening the supply of outdoor stock. Roses are of good quality in all va- rieties and the cuts are fair. Better American Beauties are to be had now than this market has offered in several years. Premier and Columbia, while not abundant, are of good quality. Ophelia and Killarney are well colored and Hoosier Beauty is showing its usual good fall crop. The carnations have shown marked improvement of late. The flowers are now fair-sized and the stems are ap- proaching a usable length. The sup- ply is gaining daily. Chrysanthemums are appearing slow- ly. With the exception of October Frost, there have been few in the mar- ket. This week will see Chrysolora come in heavily, meeting probably a quick demand. Among miscellaneous flowers are cut cyclamen, good calendulas, cattleyas and cypripediums, gypsophila and some larkspur and zinnias. The few dahlias coming in lack substance. Various Notes. F. H. Holton went to Watertown, Wis., October 8, to visit the greenhouses of Albert Loeffler and Loeffler & Benke, both of whom are consignors to Mil- waukee. Both places are planted full and in good condition. Albert Loeffler consigned a quantity of white mums last week and sent his first violets October 11. Mrs. Arthur Leidiger will go to St. Mary's hospital this week for an opera- tion. Mr. Leidiger hopes that it will enable her to do without the use of a wheel-chair, which has been her only means of getting about for some time. Erwin Hamme, of the Hamme Floral Co., Wauwatosa, says he is all set for fall business with a good stock of potted plants and cut flowers and that one more good frost will start it. The city parking ordinance has been put into effect in the block on Milwau- kee street between Mason and Oneida streets. The growers who consign stock to the wholesalers located within this zone find more room now to unload and have to do less maneuvering in getting to and from the curb. Some Milwaukee growers were given an inspection last week by three gentle- men from Illinois: C. J. Michelsen, of the E. C. Amling Co., Chicago; Henry Wehrmann, sweet pea grower, and H. Luedtke, snapdragon and stock special- ist, both of Maywood. The Milwaukee tour was an extension of the visit to the American Beauty farm at Union Grove. Mr. Michelsen is enthusiastic over the prospects for the coming season. John MeVea and Henry Niebuhr, of the A. L. Randall Co., Chicago, were in Milwaukee for several days. last week. Mr. Vilendfrer, buyer for the Golden Rule Flower Shop in St. Paul, Minn., was in the city last week making fall purchases. Mrs. Muth has resumed her position at the store of the Holton & Hunkel Co., after a six weeks* vacation. Adam Cuirrie & Co. are busy just novr with Dutch bulbs. Counter trade is brisk and an advertisement in the daily papers has stimulated bulb planting. Now that the world series is over, it is a blessing that business is good — some of the boys in the trade bet o» the Sox to win. A. H. M. LOCUST VALLEY, N. T. The annual dahlia show of the Nas- sau County Horticultural Society was held in the Matinecock Neighborhood House, Locust Valley, October 2 and 3, concluding with a dance. There was an excellent display of flowers, fruit and vegetables. Com- petition was keen in most classes and the quality was up to the usual high standard. The vegetables were excep- tionally fine, especially the collection of twelve. The judges worked more than an hour on this class alone, judging each vegetable point, with the result that Alexander McKenzie, gardener for A. V. Davis, was awarded the Stumpp & Walter silver cup. The Mrs. J. P. Morgan special for the best table deco- ration brought out keen competition and was, as usual, one of the features of the show. The judges were W. G. Hale, P. W. Popp and James HoUoway. Wil- liam Noonan was the manager. The exhibits were all by private gar- deners, but seed stores and supply houses in New York and elsewhere con- tributed most of the premiums. MOTT-LY MUSINGS. Noting a plant of Oattleya labiata carrying a spike of sevetal blooms, J. D. McCallum, manager of the store of Scholtz the Florist, Charlotte, N. C, observed that it was placed in the win- dow as a decoy, so to speak, for it catches the eye of the best buyers and is a splendid advertisement. The flow- ers were sold some days back for a spe- cial event, but, as they can be replaced from the greenhouses, where W. W. Scholtz presides, they are made to serve a double purpose. P. R. Aiken reports an increase of wedding decorations this season. A recent one in which Sunburst and Columbia roses were freely used, with Areca lutescens forming arches, was admitted to be the best yet seen here. The areca does splendidly in the south and is the farthest removed of all palms from the artificial. Some choice Glory of the Pacific chrysanthe- mums were seen. There is a scarcity of white flowers and the advent of a white rose, something to beat White Killarney, is hoped for. Miles J. Rudi- sill, the head of the seed department, was lately married. W« M. / OOTOBKB 16, 1919. The Florists^ Review 23 BOSTON. The Market. Out flowers moved well last week and prices improved somewhat, especially for roses and carnations. The weather has been erratic. Two mornings with killing frosts, which finished dahlias, asters and most of the gladioli, were succeeded by several days of 80 de- grees in the shade, which made green- house stock somewhat soft. Cooler weather this week is more favorable for business, but sales October 13 were light, owing to its being a local holi- day, Columbus day. Boses did well through the last week until October 11, when they broke somewhat, owing to large supplies com- ing from New York to a local whole- sale house. The, quality is extremely good. The ruling favorites are Premier, Columbia, Hadley, Ophelia, Stanley, Miller and Double White Killarney. Carnations are of better quality and the best flowers realize $5 per hundred. "Violets as yet are few and sell quickly. Chrysanthemums are more abundant — such sorts as October Frost, Oconto, Unaka, Pacific Supreme, Golden Glow, Monrovia and Advance. Pompons in several colors are coming in and sell at 75 cents to $1 per bunch. Gladioli, in spite of recent frosts, are still coming in freely, but are about done for the season, and a few indoor asters only are seen. Dahlias are finished. Some good bouvardia comes in and sells quickly. Cattleya labiata is now in good supply and prices have dropped. A nice assortment of cypripe- diums is also available. There has been a rather better demand for aspara- gus. Cyclamens now are in good condition and are made a prominent feature in the stores. Pot mums are also coming in. Foliage plants are being used in large numbers, especially crotons, dracsenas and palms. Boston Florists' Association. The members of this new association held their first fall meeting at the Parker House October 10, when there was a large and quite enthusiastic at- tendance. T. M. B. Hicks, of the Bos- ton Chamber of Commerce, made a splendid address, emphasizing the value of cooperation among retailers for mu- tual benefit and protection and in fighting dangerous legislation. He also strongly advocated cooperative adver- tising, locally and otherwise. A discus- sion followed Mr. Hicks' address, on points that he had brought up, especial- ly on cooperative advertising. It was voted to ask for subscriptions in the meeting for local advertising and $700 was pledged in a few minutes. The question of holding a fall flower show came up. Among those speaking on the subject were H. E. Comley, W. C. Stickel, H. H. Bartsch, E. A. Peirce, W. R. Nicholson, J. M'. Cohen and L. J. Eeuter. A committee, consisting of W. C. Stickel, H. H. Bartsch, J. Letson, J. M. Cohen and W. R. Nicholson, was appointed to confer with the Massachu- setts Horticultural Society and to see if arrangements could be made for a show in Horticultural hall. H. H. Bartsch showed a fine vase of Chrys- anthemum Oconto. Henry Penn pre- sided at the meeting. It is hoped that more growers and retailers will join this organization without delay, as it has the interests of both at heart. Various Notes. C. S. Andem, of Putnam, Conn., is one of our largest local shippers of car- nations. Last week he sent in about 20,000 flowers, principally Pink Delight, Benora and Matchless. He likes Avia- tor and Doris and also grows a rose- pink seedling similar to Ward in color. Mr. and Mrs. Henry Penn, Louis J. Reuter and Col. P. F. O'Keefe left October 12 to attend the convention of the Florists' Telegraph Delivery Asso- ciation at Buffalo. Business with the Beacon Florist, at 7 Beacon street, is beyond expectations so far. Important changes have been made in the store, which will soon be quite up-to-date. Mr. Eisemann has on exhibition in his show window this week a set of old and valuable books, includ- ing * ' Parkinson 's Paradise, ' ' a splendid work on flowers published in England in 1656. Anderson Bros., of Woburn, are cut- ting a fine lot of such pompon mums as Skibo, Melba and Nitza, also Unaka and Oconto. They are among the larg- est chrysanthemum growers for the Boston market. William R. Nicholson, of Framing- ham, has been sending in large quanti- ties of splendid chrysanthemums for some time. At present he has specially fine Oconto, Unaka, Pacific Supreme and October Frost. His carnations never looked better. Frank Edgar, of Waverley, has a splendid lot of 9,000 cyclamens for the holiday trade, also large batches of poinsettias and begonias. A large attendance is looked for at the next meeting of the Gardeners' and Florists' Club, October 21, the special attraction being Professor J. G. Jack's stereopticon lecture on "Native Trees and Shrubs." There will be exhibits of chrysanthemums and. fruits and some proposed changes in the by-laws will come up for discussion and vote. The proposal to hold a fall show in Boston next month meets with much favor. Horticultural hall is the proper location for such a show and if held November 8 and 9, when the Massachu- setts Horticultural Society will hold an exhibition of fruits and vegetables, a creditable display, even at short notice, could be made. Penn's had an attractive window of specimen cyclamens October 11. They report business as good in both plants aad flowers. Weddings are quite nu- merous at present. A special bride's window was staged October 14, with a real bride and groom and a fine display ^of shower bouquets and other wedding accessories. This attracted large crowds of passers-by. WoUrath & Sons have a superb lot of cyclamens this season and report the sale of twelve plants at $17 each last week, which would seem to be a record wholesale price for these plants. They have fine stocks of Dracaena Massan- geana, ferns, begonias, poinsettias, oranges, gardenias, etc. For Christmas they expect to flower batches of carried- over azaleas and lilacs. Charles Holbrow, of Brighton, is sending in fine flowers of his charming pink seedling rose, as yet unnamed, a cross bel^ween Christie-Miller and Rich- mond. K^^y^ Dahlia growers are unanimous in stating that they have never had finer flowers or a greater abundance of them than during the season just closing. Abundant rainfall and the absence of intense heat right through the summer are responsible for this. John K. Alexander, of East Bridgewater, who has thirty acres of dahlias, states that this has been his most successful sea- son and that he never booked so many orders. It is worthy of note that singles are coming back into favor and that the decorative and peony-flowered types are in greater favor than the cactus. William T. Walke, of Salem, is send- ing in a fine lot of cyclamens to J. M. Cohen. Mr. Walke 's houses are all well stocked with splendidly grown plants for the holiday trade. The cut flower department of the Bos- ton Floral Supply Co. is now developing rapidly and a splendid lot of roses, car- nations, mums and other seasonable flowers are being handled. In the bas- ket and sundries department, business is good. One of the largest and best equipped florists' establishments in Boston is that of John J. O'Brien, at 67 Beacon street. The^e is a large street frontage here and advantage is taken of this to display effectively a fine lot of ever- greens. The last issue of the Boston telephone directory contains the names of 221 flo- rists. Several additions to this number will be necessary in the next issue, all of which goes to show that the cut flow- er business here is in a healthy condi- tion. E. P. Matson, of Reading, is in the market with some good pink and white sweet peas. The small shipments of these flowers now arriving are eagerly bought up. W. N. 0. EVANSVILLE, IND. The Market. Business was rather quiet last week, but it is hoped that, as soon as cooler weather comes, trade will be more lively. Heavy rains knocked the outdoor stock to pieces last week. Roses and carna- tions are improving in quality and quan- tity. Some fine gladioli grown inside are seen in the store windows. There should be a large cut of calendulas this winter, as almost all of the growers have planted some. Various Notes. Ernest Lentz was in the city last week looking for heating supplies for his new greenhouses at Boonville, Ind. Karl Zeidler has his roses, carnations and chrysanthemums in good condition. He is getting ready to plant a few benches to lettuce. His trip with the hunting crowd this year will take him either to Arkansas or to Louisiana; which it will be is not yet decided. C. L.

There are not many lines of work in which better wages are paid than now are going to good growers. Not too high, because we want every- one to buy freely, but let's hope we, as a trade, never go back to the old days of low prices. The war made many troubles, but it took the first year of peace to show flo- rists that they could get profitable prices for good stock by asking for them. It usually is the unexpected that hap- pens in this trade, but unless all signs fail it will be a long time before stock in gen- eral is plentiful in the florists ' trade. Long and vexatious delays attend the importing of seeds and bulbs again this year. When one orders imported stock he can not know how soon the order will be filled. There is no large trade flower show .anywhere in the United States this year. The next big flower show will be at New York in the spring and largely dependent on the private gardeners for exhibits. Authors of all ages have written florists' advertising, for in the literature of every period one finds reference to flowers. The florist's task is simply to place this advertising before those who will make it pay. Reports indicate that only a small quantity of cyclamen seed has been planted this season, principally due to the failure of expected imports to arrive. Those who can look ahead can see a shortage of plants for Christmas, 1920, and later. It will be some time before Belgian glass is a factor on the American market. During the first six months of 1919 Bel- gian glass works exported 3,772 tons jof window pane glass, valued at 5,600,000 francs. The present production is up to ten per cent of the pre-war production, of which ninety per cent was exported. Penn's magazine for lovers of flow- ers celebrates its fifth birthday with the October issue. It is called The Blue Flow- er, because, according to the old legend, the flower of that hue was the symbol ot happiness. Its eight pages carry propa- ganda to bear out the symbolic title, and the covers advertise Penn's offerings. Forehanded and farsighted florists be- come the trade 's leaders. It is reported that Charles H. Totty Co., Madison, N. J., will disseminate Rose Frank W. Dunlop, pink, in 1920. What is advertised as "the ideal hardy plant for cut flower purposes" is being offered in England, by a firm, one member of which received his training in America, with the Chicago Carnation Co. The plant, called Allwoodii, is said to be a hybrid between the perpetual-flowering carnation and the hardy dianthus. Six colors are offered. LOOK OUT FOR HIM. That petty swindler, the subscription faker, seems to have resumed his pre- war occupation. Look out for him. The Review does not employ subscrip- tion canvajsers. Its local representa- tives all are well known to the florists of their territory. Don't pay money to strangers. If anyone offers a premium of any sort to secure payment of a subscrip- tion fee, give him the laugh — it will be sure evidence that he is a faker. Look out for him. QXnOK ACTION. It seems to make little difference what one offers for sale these days, or whence the offer comes; there are ready takers for practically everything the trade uses. Like this: Please discontinue the advertisement of carna- tion plants. We sold out at the first day's mall. — Wise Adkisson, October 9, 1919. The 13,983 flower pots were sold on an order that reached us by telegraph even before our own copy of The Review had come to hand. We can readily appreciate the fine class of sub- scribers The Review has and we are ver.v much gratified at the results In this instance. — D. Hill Nursery Co., Dundee, 111., October 11, 1919. If you hear a man complain of the cost of advertising you can be pretty certain he spends a good bit of money elsewhere than in The Review. WHAT'S THE LIMIT? "The trade expects to pay more for bulbs and other stock when other prices are high," said August Hummert, of the St. Louis Seed Co., "but there is a limit. When a grower asks $9 a thousand for ^Xi-inch freesia bulbs in quantity, the florists will buy Paper Whites instead. "Dutch bulbs have reached their top price, too; 3 and 4 cents a bulb is as high as the florist can be expected to pay if he wants to be sure of holding the public's sales at a reasonable price. "And lilies are not essential. Of course, the public asks for lilies at Easter, but if prices on them are extraor- dinarily high people will easily get the habit of buying something else for that occasion in a couple of years. "There is a limit to the prices the public will pay. There is a limit to the prices the florists' trade can afford to pay for the bulbs and other stock they buy and grow them profitably." THRIFT PREVENTS FAILURES. Bad luck in business lies not so much in the stars as in the business man him- self, according to business statisticians. Eighty-six per cent of the business fail- ures in the United States in 1918 were classed as due to the individual, while only fourteen per cent were assigned to outside causes. Among the factors of the eighty-six per cent of failures com- pilers of figures numbered extravagance, lack of capital and speculation outside regular business. The savings division of the treasury department has pointed out that thrift, savings and safe investment are the an- tidotes for the toxic virus in the veins of business. Tens of millions of dollars were lost last year through waste of labor and material. Over $500,000,000 annually is being lost in the United States through speculation in fraudulent stocks. Lack of capital is holding up thousan Is of enterprises which would go far toward meeting lack of employment and scarcity of production. New capital can be produced most easily and most certainly through sav- ing. Safe investment will add to instead of detract from the business assets of the nation. ONE WHO CAN STEP IN. The cry for first-class, experienced help is keen today in both stores and greenhouses.' Scanning the page and a half of appeals for help wanted that appear each week in the Want Ad de- partment of The Review, one finds the call is for a man "who can step in"; in other words, one who has already had experience and training and can now be relied upon in his work, whether it be decorating, design-making or growing. The cause of the need should be plain. The trade needs more learners or ap- prentices year by year if the needs of the trade are to be satisfied. The ap- prentice today will be the "one who can step in" tomorrow. At this time growers and retailers are busy in the press of good trade. But they will find it greatly to their later advantage if they seek among the helpers in their employ the more promising ones and give them opportunity to develop into skilled hands. Teaching persons of little or no trade knowledge the ways of the craft is a tedious and difficult task. But, hard as it is, it is nothing to the handicap of short help at a busy time, when one must throw away profits for lack of capable persons to undertake proffered work. ARGUE FERTILIZER PRICES. Representatives of the fertilizer com- panies and packers in conference with Department of Justice officials have agreed on certain prices that will prob- ably be put into force next spring. (Chemical fertilizers occupied most of the first sessions. Mixed fertilizers will be discussed in later ones. Tankage has averaged $2.72 per unit for the years 1913-14-15, which are used as a basis for fixing future prices by the government. It Is selling now at $6.86. The price to be fixed for this commodity will be $3.40. On this decision there is decided dissent, especially from pack- ers. Their argument in the conference was that they had no cost figures for production of tankage, and could only say that whatever was made on such a by-product tended to keep down the price of meats to consumers and, on the contrary, if the price of the by-products were to be arbitrarily reduced it would have the effect of raising the price of meats to the public. Dried blood, it was shown, had had an average price for the 3-year period of $3.72 and was selling for $7.50. The proposed price will be $3.72. October 16, 1919. The Florists^ Review 25 OBITUARY Marmaduke Tilden. Marmaduke Tilden, formerly well known as a rose grower of Madison, N. J., died last week. The funeral was held in New York. Twenty-two years ago Mr. Tilden was one of the success- ful Beauty growers of Madison. His greenhouses, under the management of Martin McNulty, produced gilt-edge stock that was seen daily in the New York market at Walter F. Sheridan's. The place has since been pulled down. Mr. Tilden is survived by his wife and two sons. Phil. Herman J. Simmers. Herman J. Simmers died suddenly October 7 at his home, 1261 Yonge street, Toronto, Ont. He was a member of the firm of J. A. Simmers & Sons, seed merchants. Following so soon after the death of his brother, the late Anton J. Simmers, it was a great shock to his family and to his many friends. He was born in Toronto fifty-seven years ago. He attended the Upper Canada College, Toronto, and the On- tario Agricultural College, Guelph. His whole business life has been spent in Toronto, After the death of his father, he and his brother carried on the busi- ness, greatly enlarging it and making an ever increasing number of friends. At the recent convention of the Cana- dian Horticultural Association in To- ronto, he took a most active part. In addition to acting as honorary treas- urer, he gave an interesting address on bulbs. He also acted on the committee to meet representatives of the Depart- ment of Agriculture, Ottawa, regarding the importation of certain shrubs, etc. He was a member of the Lutheran church. Surviving him are his wife and a sister. J. J. H.. DETROIT, MICH. The Market. The week started out with a rush. Monday morning found the buyers at the market buying heavily. Stock which came in Saturday and Sunday was picked up quickly and even then there was much grabbing for the stock that arrived Monday morning. Roses found a ready market and the increase in business took care of the increased production. American Beau- ties were all sold for the McMillan fu- neral before they arrived; hence the smaller shops had to do without or have them shipped in from Chicago. The latter part of the week also found them much in demand. Columbia, Premier and long-stemmed Hoosier Beauty sold quickly. Ophelia cleared readily, with all grades in demand. So it went all down the line, including Shawyer, Maryland, Sunburst, Killarney, Ward and Kaiserin. Corsage roses, such as Sweetheart and short Ward buds, are scarce and the retailer is falling back on short Ophelias. Carnations are in oversupply, their demand being only fair. The price, however, is a bit stiff, $6 per hundred for the best. Gladioli are continuing to reach the market. Their demand increased last week and all orders were cut down in order to distribute them among all buy- ers. Chrysanthemums are fair in quality, but all grades clear as soon as the boxes are opened. No yellow is to be had as yet. Baby mums are scarce, there be- ing only a few white ones in the market. Tritomas are becoming fewer, since their season is about over. Some shops are showing Japanese lilies, but as yet they have not reached the market. Seasonable flowers, such as cosmos, zinnias, snapdragon, celosia, candytuft, centaureas, calendulas and scabiosa, are to be had and the retailer finds them useful to fill in with. Asparagus fern is a bit scarce, but maidenhair is plentiful. Bowling Club Meets. Thursday night, October 9, the De- troit Florists' Bowling Club met, with the following results: American Beauties, won 2, lost 1; Indians, won 2, lost 1; Bisons, won 1, lost 2; Tigers, won 1, lost 2.

Various Notes. The sudden death of Philip McMil- lan, a Detroit millionaire, kept several of the downtown florists working over- time. Quantities of American Beauty, Premier and long-stemmed Columbia roses were used, also many dozens of orchids, Mr. Schumacher,' of E. A. Fetters' downtown store, completed the decora- tion for the Detroit symphony orches- tra in Chicago and is now in St. Louis. When he has finished St. Louis, he will return to Detroit and then go on to Hamilton, Ont. Albert Winkler, of John Breitmeyer's Sons' Broadway store, is at home sick from poison sumac that was brought in from the country. Adam Bezemer, of E. A. Fetters', was a busy man for two days on a wed- ding decoration at Pontiac, Mich. W. B. Brown, of Woodward avenue, reports that his move to that location is bringing in increased business. George Doemling 's greenhouse, at Mount Clemens, is producing some fine stock. Tlie quality of his Columbia, Hoosier Beauty, Ward and Killarney is high. He has also several houses of sturdy Boston ferns. Tom Browne, of Redford, Mich., is cutting soine of the best mums that reach this market, in lavender, white and bronze colors. He is cutting also large quantities of carnations. Harry Breitmeyer has returned from his trip east, having hurried home from Pittsburgh to help on the McMillan funeral orders. He canvassed both re- tailers and wholesalers in New York and Philadelphia. William Dilger, of the Breitmeyer nursery, expects to grow outdoor flow- ers for the market next year, such as larkspur, celosia, gladioli and asters. This will no doubt prove successful, as the sale of seasonable flowers has in- creased greatly over last year. Joe Anderson, at one time with J. Breitmeyer's Sons, has returned to the trade, taking over the management of the Rosery Flower Shop, on Woodward ^venue. Jack Beecher, of Grand River avenue is now buying more heavily, as his large cut of asters is over. Increasing trade keeps him busy. Similar reports from many other shops give evidence of the end of out- door flowers and of the return of flower buyers and social events demanding flowers. We are beginning a season which is expected to establish a new high business average. H. T. CHXCAGO. The Market. There have been high spots and low spots in business during the last few days. October 6 was a big day. Then demand subsided, and there were two or three days' which did not compare at all favorably with recent business standards. Then demand revived. ' Oc- tober 10 and 11 were good days. Octo- ber 13 was one of the heaviest days for shipping the market has had so far this season. A few of the houses say their sales still are running ahead of last year's big October record, but others fell behind last week, especially those who depend principally on city trade. The shipping business never was of greater importance than now in mar- keting the flowers which come to this center. The supply of stock is not so large as it was a week ago, but such advance in prices as has taken place has been most- ly due to the advancing season and the normal improvement in the quality of stock. Prices are not so high as a year ago. Roses constitute the principal item in the market. It seems to be generally tlie case that those who have home sup- plies of other flowers look to Chicago for their roses. There are hundreds of buyers whose orders call for little else. This tendency has been apparent for a number of seasons, with the result that the growers here have been trending in the same direction. The supply of roses this season is larger than ever before, both in quantity and in relation to the supply of other stock. A few weeks ago a large percentage of the roses were shorts and it was impossible to find a satisfactory market for the low grade (Continued on page 30) 26 The Florists^ Review OCTOBBB 16, 1919.

WE ARE CLOSED ALL DAY SUNDAY stock, while there was a scarcity of the better grades. Now the condition is reversed. There has been a large in- crease in the percentage of long stems. Most of the wholesalers are able to supply all the long roses that are wanted, but are compelled to cut orders for short stems. There has been some increase in the price of the better grades, but considerably more increase in the value of shorts. There is no change in the position of the varieties. Premier, Columbia, Eussell and Ophelia are the leaders. Two or three growers are cutting good crops of Beauties and these are selling exceptionally well. The chrysanthemum has practically displaced the gladiolus and the aster. Small quantities of both the summer flowers are seen coming from localities that have escaped the recent frosts, but the autumn favorite now occupies sec- ond place in the market. Three colors are available in various sizes, from $2 to $5 per dozen being the range of prices of shipping grades. Pompons are more plentiful, but white is the pre- vailing color. Carnations continue to increase in supply, but the scarcity of short roses has increased the demand, so that the market is kept well cleaned up. Prices have improved in proportion to the im- provement in the quality of "the stock. Double violets are here, but they are not yet in special demand.

The supply of last sea- son's pips apparently is nearly ex- hausted.

All the outdoor flowers in the range of country supplied by the Chicago mar- ket were killed or put out by the cold weather. This caused a sharp spurt in the out-of-town demand. Roses have been in good supply until the cool, cloudy weather lessened the cut and this caused a small advance in rose prices. Carnations also had an advance in price and good shipping carnations again are scarce. Chrysanthemums are in big de- mand.

The regular meeting of the Chicago Florists' Club was held at the Hotel Randolph, Thursday night, October 9. The attendance was small, but much in- terest was shown in regard to selecting a "Say It with Flowers" week in Chi- cago. There were some interesting re- ports on the S. A. F. convention held at Detroit last August, as this was the club's first meeting since then. Ar- rangements for the coming convention of the American Carnation Society and the meeting of the Illinois State Flo- rists' Association, which will be held in January, 1920, were discussed. Various Notes. The severe storm of October 10 caused considerable damage to the property of the Chicago Carnation Co., at Joliet. Mr. Peterson says they lost a green- house and half of another, including about 6,000 panes of glass. At a meeting of the stockholders of the E. C. Amling Co., held October 13, preliminary steps were taken to increase the number of directors from five to seven. The board was given the power to fill the two new places as soon as the necessary legal details are completed. At Crystal Lake Frank Schramm is installing a refrigerating system to handle the rooms in which he cools his rose cut. It is the Kroeschell appara- tus which has been installed by a num- ber of the Chicago wholesale cut flower dealers, the Chicago Flower Growers' Association, Poehlmann Bros. Co. and Zech & Mann having been the latest tb adopt it. L. E. King, formerly manager of the flower store of the Everette R. Peacock Co., is opening his own store at 3968 Avondale avenue.

Stock is coming in a little more free- ly, but there is no oversupply. Orchids have been the most conspicuous flowers in show windows lately, light and dark cattleyas being largely featured. Ap- pearing with them are roses, carnations, a few dahlias and chrysanthemums. Good ferns are shown in the background. Business has been active and the sup- ply daily utilized. Good roses are avail- able, though red ones have been some- what scarce. Carnations are still on the short side, both in quantity and in length of stem. But even these shorts bring $3 and $4 per hundred, with fancy varieties, such as Laddie, bringing $5 per hundred, and all are in good de- mand.

Brown, of Purdue University. Practically no new business was on hand, except in connection with the fall show. There was a discussion of the new law affecting the building of green- houses. Albert Stanley, while building his new house, was ordered to make a foundation of brick or concrete to go a foot and a half under the surface. A. F. J. Baur and Albert Stanley pro- tested to the inspector, but had, at that time, received no satisfaction. The fall show was the chief business of the evening. The benefits of the show to both city and state members of the association were discussed. A show of this kind helps all the tradesmen. Eeports were heard from the following committees: Exhibition, finance, ban- quet and dance, entertainment and re- ception. The reports from all were favorable and show good progress to- ward a splendid and successful enter- tainment. Following adjournment a social hour was enjoyed, in which refreshments were served by the hosts. Various Notes. Albert Stanley is building a new greenhouse — under difficulties, as indi- cated.

There is business, quite a lot of it, but there are more than enough flowers, so that prices are low and there are left-overs. Beauties come in on orders only, so that the price is maintained. Orchids, unable to maintain this delec- table altitude (with apologies to W. H. E.), have declined, owing to heavier re- ceipts. Everything else can be bought cheaply. We have exactly that period of the fall season when greenhouse- grown flowers are in the ascendant. There has been no black frost, but the outdoor flowers are waning. Asters end gladioli are almost over. Chrys- anthemums are slowly pushing dahlias aside. Only cosmos is still in the height of its glory. Early chrysanthemums are now in full crop. Oconto has been added to the whites, Chrysolora to the yellows and Tint of Gold has come. The mar- ket is taking them, but not eagerly. Opinions on the prices vary from good to moderate. Dahlias are still extremely fine and form an important part of the daily business. Koscs are plentiful and cheap; so is cosmos. A few more car- nations come in each day. It is too warm for violets. Many of those who will be consumers six weeks hence are producers now. The Club Float. There was a big industrial parade or peace jubilee in Philadelphia on the afternoon of Saturday, October 11. One of the features of the parade in which the civilians marched and the service men looked on was the float of the Philadelphia Florists' Club.

No one who saw the result of their united efforts is likely to forget to "Say It with Flow- ers.' The Situation. There is a most interesting situation in the flower world of this city today. The retail leaders, among them some of the brightest men in the profession, have inaugurated and successfully com- menced a big publicity campaign. They have made a special effort for one week and propose to continue the campaign throughout the entire year. To do this requires financial support. A plan, has been proposed that will give the neces- sary support provided all, or nearly all, will do their share. Will we do itf The wholesalers will undoubtedly do their share. A majority, probably a large majority, of the growers wdll do their share. Will the retailers do their share? They will benefit most by the success of the plan and its success de- pends most on them. Yet, will they support itf There is the rub. The re- tailers have in their ranks some of the most progressive men in the profession. Among the retailers are many fine wom- en and many fine men. Yet; taking the three groups, wholesalers, growers and retailers, the least progressive of these three is the retail group. To them that tax on all purchases will seem mon- strous. Yet on that tax depends the success of that big plan that may mean so much to us all. Come now, ladies and gentlemen, will you support your OCTOBBB 16, 1919.

There was a crowd at the Adelphia to hear the publicity committee's report. It was the annual meeting, too, the an- nual meeting of the Florists' Club, but that was of minor import when com- pared with this new experience. The publicity committee had a plan, de- scribed in a letter that went out with the notices. They expected opposition to their plan. To smooth the way to harmony, Frank M. Boss, of the com- mittee, approached each member as he entered and gravely presented a horn and a hammer (so called, but really a pair of bones), remarking, "Here are a horn and a hammer. You may use either the horn or the hammer here, but only the horn afterwards." The gifts and speech effectively disarmed opposi- tion. The exhibits consisted of several vases of named dahlias from the Henry F. Michell Co., of Andalusia; Eose Cor- nelia from Eobert Scott & Son, of Sharon Hill, which will be sent out next spring; a deep pink seedling rose from Edward Towill, of Roslyn, which is from Hadley and Milady, Maryland and Rosa- lind Orr English, the two seedlings re- sulting, being crossed.

Then came the election of officers. Arthur A. Niessen withdrew as a candi- date for vice-president, thus removing the only contest. So the secretary cast one ballot each for Edmund A. Harvey, president; Harry S. Betz, vice-president; George Craig, treasurer, and Robert Kift, secretary, and they were declared duly elected. Then came the real business of the evening. Robert Kift took the floor and read letters from Albert Pochelon, of Detroit; Herman P. Knoble, of Cleve- land, and (I think) C. C. Pollworth Co., of Milwaukee, describing the suc- cessful publicity campaigns in those cities. Charles H. Grakelow, chairman of the club's publicity committee, went on the platform and, after having a little fun with the rear guard, he settled down to work and for over an hour he went carefully into the committee's plans with his large audience. Briefly put, the committee have put up four large billboards, 20x50 feet, and one 10x40 feet, on different approaches to the city. They have had 10,000 note- head stickers printed and a great num- ber of telegraph signs. They have ar- ranged to place twenty large baskets sent by the Joseph G.

The aim is to get every retailer to make a handsome display in his own shop dur- ing that week. All the advertising is to be general in character. Mr. Grake- low said he was sending out 3,000 letters, one-half his mailing list, calling atten- tion to the display for the week in all the shops. The committee 's plans also in- cluded sending flowers to the churches and to the hospitals, with letters to the clergyman and to the superintendent in each case, also placing a handsome float as the Florists' Club's contribution to the civic parade of October 11. Mr. Grakelow described what had been done during the visits of General Pershing and of Cardinal Mercier and read and told of the acknowledgments received for these courtesies. Turning to the question of finance, Mr. Grakelow pro- posed on behalf of the committee a tax of one-half of one per cent on the pur- chases of the retailers and a half of one per cent on the sales of the supply men within the city limits. The plantsmen were also to be taxed one per cent on their local sales. The wholesalers' con- tribution was to be in collecting the taxes and forwarding them to the com- mittee. Those present pledged their support. Robert Craig followed with a humorous address that delighted every- body. He closed with an earnest appeal for support for this new plan. The question of the right of the club to tax its members is simple. It has no right to do so. Yet the club has a moral right to the hearty support of every one of its members and the florist who is not willing to do her or his share to for- ward a plan intended for the general welfare incurs a grave responsibility. Various Notes. The Pennsylvania Horticultural So- ciety asks the support of the commercial cut flower growers as exhibitors at the fall show to be held November 5 to 8 in the lirst Regiment armory, Bond and Callowhill streets. The schedule of prizes may be secured from David Rust, secretary, 606 Finance building. En- tries are to be staged at noon on Thurs- day, November 6. The genial Paul Berkowitz, member of the firm of H. Bayersdorfer & Co., has offered the following funny clip- ping from Country Gentleman.

Next door to a Massachusetts pharmacy Is a large florist's establishment which features on its windows the slogan of the national florists' association: "Say It with Flowers." After the placard liad l)een in evidence for a number of weelss, the druggist noticed a fall- ing off in his Sunday niglit candy sales and an Increase in tlie number of young men who were obeying the injunction next door. Once the reason for the decrease flltered home, this druggist got busy and looked about for a means to overcome the competition. His week- end confectionery displays are now placarded with this: "She can eat the candy." William A. Geiger says that the Florex Gardens have received 3,000 tons of coal in the last ten days on their new siding. Charles H. Grakelow decorated the Parkway stand most beautifully for the parade October 11. Hemlock trees were used in front of the stand, with horns of dahlias at frequent intervals to add color.

Walter Breiteinstein, of Randolph & McClements, Pittsburgh, Pa., has been with us. The steel strike and the increasing use of oil for fuel have caused an eas- ing off in the coal market.

Roses, in the early part of the week, owing to several warm days, came in too far open. Many of them could not be used. During the latter part of the week the weather took a decided change and stock was in much better shape. While roses are in fair supply, the pros- pects are that for a period there will be a scarcity. This is a good thing and looks as though the growers were tim- ing their crops on account of the chrys- anthemum season. There were more dahlias on the market last week than could be handled to advantage. The growers this season have had altogether a good market for dahlias and, while there have been more than were ever before seen on this market, there were more sold. I cannot help but impress upon the growers the importance of discarding poor varieties and selecting the best.

Chrysanthemums have not struck their stride as yet, but by the time this reaches the readers they should be at their height. The early varieties that have been seen up to this time have been of good quality and cleaned up well. Carnations are beginning to come well and, while most of them are short- stemmed, there are some to be had that are surprisingly good for this early in the season.

Mayor Broen- ing has accepted an invitation and will be present. Every florist in the city owes a debt of gratitude to His Honor, as he has done more to boost "Say It with Flowers" than any other man in this city. Another feature of the eve- ning will be the elaborate floral decora- tions. The young fellows are all ex- perts at the art and do most of this work in our city. "With several of the older florists, who have gained renown, on the committee in advisory capacity, they purpose to show the members of the trade what they can do. It will be a great treat for the members of the trade, at the beginning of what prom- ises to be one of the most successful years in the history of the business. An- other feature will be our out-of-town guests: Philadelphia and Washington will both be with us. This will give everyone an opportunity to renew old acquaintances and make new ones. No one can afford to miss this get-together occasion. The tickets are limited, so get into touch with any of the whole- sale houses, or Albert M. Fiedler, 902 South Charles street, at once and re- serve your tickets. One of the greatest problems that the farmers of this country have to face is how to get their sons interested in their calling and keep them on the farm. As the generation becomes older, they real- ize that unless they can get the boys interested in the work it will be only a matter of time until there will be no one to take their places. Now, none of us likes to admit we are getting old, but at the last meeting of the club, when the officers for the ensuing year were nominated, there was no doubt that there was some deep thinking along this line. And so a young hustler, like "Wil- liam F, Ekas, was selected for president. On top of this, Robert L. Graham, Jr., was chosen for vice-president, that he might be in training to succeed Mr. Ekas, at the expiration of his term. A real live wire was chosen in C. Harry Wagner for financial secretary, with young Albert Fiedler for treasurer. These boys are going to make some of us old veterans (who sometimes are proud of the fact, and like to boast about being charter members of the club) move some to keep up with them.

The sudden death of Herman J. Sim- mers, of Toronto, is reported in this week's obituary column. During 1917 a total of 186,008,000 bulbs and roots were shipped to the Unit- ed States from Rotterdam, valued at $1,- 690,466. In 1918 the figures shrank to 81,063,000 and $1,072,680. Those who can pay for French bulbs or other imports in money of the country of origin profit by the unprecedentedly low rates of exchange, but all recent deal- ings have been on the basis of American dollars. Jobbers of lily bulbs report that can cellation of orders are numerous, both for giganteum and Formosa bulbs. Prices unquestionably are high, but the supply of bulbs is so small that there seems to be no special risk in buying them. The new Milwaukee-Irving State Bank, Chicago, opened October 15. Everette R. Peacock is president, making two onion set growers at the head of Chicago finan- cial institutions. Joseph J. Budlong is president of the Lakeview Trust & Sav- ings Bank. How important is the export of bulbs to the United States from Rotterdam is indicated by consular figures that their value was nearly half of the total exports from that place to this country in 1917 and in 1918 amounted to approximately three-fourths of total shipments. How much the war reduced France 's ex- ports of seeds is shown by comparative figures in metric quintals (quintal = 220.46 pounds) covering the first half of the year, 126,649 in 191 ;{; 274,803 in 1914; 129,618 in 1915; 173,738 in 1916; 90,130 in 1917; 57,325 in 1918 and 4fi 309 in 1919. On the Glcnsanda, from Rotterdam which reached New York October 4, were forty bags of seed for the Dunkirk Seed Co., t\yenty for the Templin-Crockett- Bradley Co., forty for the Meyer-Stisser Co., thirty-two for F. W. Wood and eight for D. W. Kaiser, as well as 112 bags on order, a total of 252 bags. Here it is the middle of October and seed catalogues for the southern trade are due to be ready for the marts within sixty days.

Paper, too, is sky rocketing again. Comparative notes by the British Board of Agriculture state that while British onion seed shows a higher average weight per kcie, American seed has a higher germination. RAIN DELAYS TOMATO CEOP. Records for September show that more rain fell at Santa Ana, Cal., during the month than in any previous Septem- ber recorded. This rain fell during the latter part of the month and held up tomato harvest for about one week. Al- though it did not result in an appreci- able loss of tomato seed, still it is caus- ing some of the seed to be a little darker in color than is liked. This, however, will not injure the vitality of the seed. Good weather has prevailed since the storm passed and the tomato vines have not blighted, as is usual following a rain. If there is a continuance of good weather from this time on, there seems to be no reason why final results will not be fully as good as anticipated earlier. Haven Seed Co. STRIKE DELAYS DUTCH BULBS. The strike of longshoremen in New York harbor has held up the Holland bulbs which have arrived there within the last two weeks. The Rotterdam steamer Glensanda was only half un- loaded of its 15,972 cases when the men quit work upon the refusal of their em- ployers to grant an increase from 65 cents to $1 per hour and from $1 to $1.50 for overtime. The sympathetic strike of ferryboat men, called October 10, is likely to bring matters to a head shortly and result in a settlement that will allow the trade to liave its bulbs. On the steamer Glensanda, from Rot- terdam, which arrived at New York Oc- tober 4, were 15,972 cases of Holland bulbs, according to the published mani- fest, but no names of consignees were given. Two days later the Vcendyk brought 179 cases more from Rotterdam, consigned as follows: Consignop Paspo Amerioan Sliipping Co irs Lansr. K. F ^ Kiiigk, A. H.. & Co '.'.'.'.'.'.'.\ '.'.'.

F. Lang & Co., fifty cases, bring- ing the total arrivals to date up to 47,766. ^ MOTT-LY GLEANINGS. The death of Mark W. Johnson, of Atlanta, Ga., removed possibly the old- est and one of the most remarkable seedsmen in the south. A steadfast be- liever in the quality of the firm's seeds which he carried exclusively, he had the faculty of inspiring his patrons with the same faith, so that, should such a thing as seeds failing to germinate hap- pen, the sower invariably blamed othei conditions for the failure.

Dear Mr. Young — Enclosed please find check, for which kindly send receipt in full, for $400, my yearly subscription. I feel that this money is being used for the best campaign that ever was originated — for the best results that ever a campaign could offer. Accept it with my best wishes. Yours very sincerely, Henry Penn. We know of a number of florists who do not hesitate to pronounce our pub- licity campaign the best incentive to business ever undertaken. They be- lieve in it and admit a personal share in the splendid results. But — they do not subscribe to the fund. They are not in Henry Penn's class — they are just plain preachers. Twenty-Six Pillars. The campaign has been fortunate in having twenty-five other enthusiasts such as Mr. Penn, who together have subscribed about one-seventh of the total amount collected to date.

Just think of it— these few florists, many of them growers and wholesalers, taking upon themselves this large share of our financial load! Not one of tliem has subscribed less than $200 per year. And yet there are nearly 15,000 florists who are to benefit from our campaign, but who have not subscribed a penny. All praise is due to the others who have helped to swell the fund. Even as small a subscription as $5 is acceptable and helps — -there is no dictation as to what a man ought to subscribe. It is the spirit of the thing that counts. Be a Pillar, Not a Piker. We have now passed our period of summer dullness and conditions are ripe for several prosperous months ahead. Prosperity will materialize, if our com- mittees are able to carry out the plans on which they are now engaged. It is up to those who have not subscribed to make this possible — those who have al- ready contributed should have the hearty thanks of all for the magnificent success so far enjoyed. We have attracted the attention of the public to our products, and our slo- gan, "Say It with Flowers," is work- ing constantly to our advantage, bring- ing to the florists all over the country l)usiness which without it would not be forthcoming. Can anyone in the trade really afford to withhold support from such a business-bringing movement? It should be a privilege and a pleasure to subscribe. Contributions arc urgently needed now. This is the time to rally to our campaign standard. .John Young, Sec'y. Payson, Utah. — Miss Ann J.

Also our honored treasurer, William Rock, who is ever ready with good ad- vice, prompt and correct in his records, as his report will show this morning. Also our past president, Trwin Berter- mann, to whom we owe a great deal for putting the association on its feet and who is ready and willing to give good, friendly and substantial advice. To George Asmus, our former vice- president and president of the National Flower Show committee, who has labored unselfishly for the florists' trade in general and the F. T. D. in particular, and to the members of the board of directors, who have been ever ready and willing to do their duty, to all of these I extend my cordial thanks and best wishes. Small Orders. Small orders should be discouraged, particularly on the rush days. How- ever, if a person is willing to pay the price, there should be no order too small to relay and be given the accommoda- tion which the order deserves. The question of whether it pays or not should not enter into these transactions, for who will say that it is not a good advertisement?

It mat- ters not how much one gives, but how many are giving. Just think, 20,000 f orists at $5 each would be $100,000, and surely we should average $5 per florist. Our publicity with our slogan, "Say It with Flowers," has done wonders and I cannot but feel that the florists' busi- ness is in its infancy and will go for- ward by leaps and bounds; in fact, faster than some of us will be able to keep up. In these days of the high cost of living and the high cost of flowers, it behoove^ us all to make the most of the least, to give our customers perfect satisfac- tion in every way, so that when the time comes when the great majority of people will want flowers in their homes we shall know how to supply them. In every industry, we should remem- ber that the government treated us with great consideration during the coal shortage, and men engaged in their re- spective industries should bear this in mind and remember that we were shown a certain degree of favoritism. At this time, when the government is making investigations on all sides to inquire into the high cost of living and the high cost of almost every article of merchan- dise, it does seem to me that the grow- ers, as well as the dealers and commis- sion men, should hold themselves down to a reasonable margin of profit, so that if they for any reason are investigated, they could show by their records that they are dealing with the public and their fellow men on an absolutely square basis. Associations for Good. Associations are all too willing and ready in times such as these to "get together" and set a minimum price and value. I am of the opinion that it is a bad thing to do. And I would certainly counsel the advisability of letting every grower, every wholesaler and every dealer determine for himself and ac- cording to his own records what con- stitutes a fair and reasonable profit and at what price he shall sell to the public. Associations of members in any given trade should be strongly counseled, for there is no question in my mind that every association can exert a powerful influence for good, but it must always be borne in mind that the power of each such association should not be abused, NEW YORK CITY A.

"Say It with Flowers" Week. I believe that no greater boost to the florists' business can be inaugurated than by having one week set aside to "Say It with Flowers" in every city in the United States and Canada. The first week in November seems to be the best time to "Say It with Flowers." This should be done by liberal advertis- ing and by having our stores make a special effort to be decorated in holiday dress, also by advocating the liberal use of flowers, and it might be well for us to recommend to the public that every- body wear a flower in memory of the heroes who lost their lives during the world war. Another idea that might well be worked out is to send flowers wherever possible to all the mothers of the heroes who lost their lives during the recent war. Ita the larger tjities and towns floats similar to the one used in Washington j to celebrate the home-coming of General Pershing and the First Division, in scat- tering flowers, may be used to distribute flowers to hospitals. The floats may first pass through the principal streets of the city, then drive to the hospitals, where many of the convalescents can enjoy them, before distributing the flowers. Then have a bunch of fresh flowers to hand to every one of the sick or disabled. In cities where there are no hospitals, floats may well be used to carry flowers to the sick.

I hope some action will be taken at this meeting to give ap- proval to these suggestions. Advertising. The farmer does not fail to sow his seed every spring because there hav© been crop failures in the past. Adver- tising, like seed, has a reproductive power, and the man who neglects to plant his seed in rich soil, or his sav- ings in good investments, simply robs himself of an opportunity to reap a crop or win a fortune. Do not be afraid to take the risk. People in all parts of the world have made fortunes through judicious advertisements. They won simply because they had the nerve to risk. Sales Education. We cannot do too much in educating our salespeople in taking orders when patrons have .only a few dollars to spend, in making them feel that they are wel- come and that the order will receive the same care as if the purchase had been a large one. Again, frequently the mis- take is made of selling an inexpensive article when a more expensive one would - do better. This is particularly true in taking orders for out of town. Many times roses may be $2 or $3 a dozen while in the city in which they are to be delivered they will be $6 or $7, or vice versa, in such a case, particularly dur- ing the holidays, it is always well not to specify the color of the flowers, not even the kind if possible, leaving it entirely to the florist to send the best for the money.

The continuance of the steel strike in all the suburban mill towns, particularly along the Monongahela and Allegheny rivers, shows an increased effect in the re- spective local shops, which, it goes with- out saying, in turn affects the city mar- kets to a greater or less degree. There is little or no change in prices and, likewise, little or no change in production. Roses of fine quality con- tinue to come in, while dahlias are in their glory, as, indeed, they have been throughout their exceptionally long season of this year. Various Notes.

AXELL, 461 Bush St., San Francisco in Lick place and, since the death of Mr. Boland, has been in charge of mem- bers of his family, Julius Eppstein, at the St. Francis hotel, furnished a large number of table decorations for the special dinner- dance held in the St. Francis hotel September 9, to celebrate the return of Art Hickman's orchestra from the east. The recent fashion show held at the Palace hotel under the auspices of I. Magnin & Co. was decorated by A. O. Stein. The entire palm court of the Palace hotel, in which the show was staged, was decorated with chrysanthe- mums in pastel shades, forming a most effective color scheme and serving as a delightful background for the hundreds of beautiful gowns on exhibition. Numerous tableaux were given, princi- pal among which was a bridal group. The bride's bouquet, also donated and arranged by Mr. Stein's shop, was a lovely sheath of delicate, white ostrich feathers and gardenias. The brides- maids carried similar bouquets, made of royal blue feathers and yellow butter- fly orchids — a stunning combination, which was particularly effective with their frocks of yellow. Fred Bertrand, manager of the retail shop of the MacRorie-McLaren Co., is back after several days spent at the annual land show at Fresno, Cal. Mr. Bertrand was of course much interested in the flower exhibit which was a part of the land show. The principal prize- winners were the San Francisco Floral Co. and the firm of Rossi & Ferrari, of San Francisco, both of which maintain branches in that city. Rossi & Ferrari carried away nine blue ribbons and fourteen reds, while the San Francisco Floral Co. has eight blues and twentjr- four reds to its credit. Mr. Bertrand commented particularly upon the Rossi- Ferrari orchid display and the general display arranged by the San Francisco Floral Co. The last named firm won also first prizes on the best original flo- ral design and the best corsage bouquet, while the blue ribbon went to Boss! & Ferrari for the best table decoration and the best bride's bouquet. According to several florists of Oak- land, Cal., the street-car strikes in that city, which have tied up all rail traffic, have affected the florists' trade to a con- siderable extent. Deliveries have been badly handicapped and shipping prac- tically stopped. M. M. 94 The Florists^ Review OCTOBHB 16, 1919. PORTLAND, ORE. The Market. Tlie market is holding up well for this time of the year. Becent good weather has been a great help to the outside growers and gladioli, zinnias, larkspur and cosmos, and some other varieties, are still with us in fair quan- tity. Dahlias are now at their best and are arriving in goodly numbers. A good cut of roses of the best qual- ity is coming in daily. Carnations are beginning to shape up well and are ar- riving in fairly good quantities. Local chrysanthemums will be on the market in about ten days or two weeks and the trade is now dependent on California shipments for what they use. The best shipping sorts are Crocus, Chieftain and Clara Wells. Various Notes. Mr. and Mrs. Samuel A. Dunlap have reached Portland after a tour across the states in their Oldsmobile. They left Philadelphia, Pa., August 19, stopping several days in the different cities to visit the florists. On their way they motored through the Yellowstone park and then to Seattle. Mr. Dunlap has been with Pennock Bros, for twenty- seven years, but his ambition has al- ways been to take this trip and settle in the west. He is now with the Martin & Forbes Co. Enrico Eosaia is bringing some good dahlias, the best ones being Mina Bur- gle and Delice. C. B. Knickman, with McHutchison & Co., of New York, was in town for a few days on his return from Japan. L. T. S. SPOKANE, WASH. The Market. Business conditions are merely hold- ing their own for this time of year, but a lively season is in prospect. The early frosts made havoc with asters and gla- dioli, killing practically all the outdoor supply, but the early chrysanthemums are coming in strongly and the demand is taking up the supply closely. To the recent warm weather was due an oversupply of roses last week, yet the showing from the local growers is satisfactory. Some fine violets are be- ing shipped in from Montana. Carna- tions are of better quality, although still rather scarce. Cyclamens, primulas and jwtted plants are making a good show- ing for this time of year. Various Notes. A "Say It with Flowers" week is planned for the latter part of October, but definite arrangements have not yet been completed. The Spokane Florist Co. reports good September business, having had a num- ber of wedding decorations, besides a good everyday counter trade. It gave over part of its store during the recent election of Red Cross officials, which brouglit many people into its shop that day.

The Florists^ Review 95 CANADIAN GREENS FOR AMERICAN FLORISTS t^CQSir— Beautiful dark green. Read what our satisfied customers say of it: McKenna's, Montreal, say:— "We have been using your cedar to good advantage during the past two years and have found it excellent and an agreeable change from Galax and Magnolia. In making up wreaths more especially it beats anything offered; having kept same all winter without losing a single spray is another most encouraging feature. Please ship 10 m." Dunlop's, Toronto, Bay:— "Send us 10m cedar, have been using them now two years; their keeping qualities enable us to have them on hand at all times; in fact it is so now that we cannot do without them." St«w«irt's Seed Store, Omaha:— "Answering your favor of July 17th, beg to advise that we were extremely well pleased with the cedar which you shipped us this past year, and will have use for Quite a heavier amount for the ensuing season. Will also be interested in the natural branches when they are seasonable." August Von Boeselager, Mt. Clemens, Mich:— "I certainly like your cedar very much. I never saw foliage keep as well as the cedar." "The cedar branches sent me last season, both long and short, were fine color. Keeping qualities all that could be desired. They are quite an addition to high class greens. Let me know when you are ready to ship. Very respectfully, MRS. E. A. WILLIAMS, Per H, C. Sheaff, Mgr."

Beimers recently produced a large gates ajar of Ophelia roses and pink, white and lavender asters. Jack Burt recently returned from a six weeks' trip to Canada and the east. Mr. Burt is expecting to remodel his store shortly. Hoyt Bros, are handling much funeral work, including a large vacant chair made of white chrysanthemums and Ophelia and Columbia roses. Donart's House of Flowers is being remodeled in light gray. Since the death of Adolph Donart, the proprie- torship has been taken over by Mrs. Genevieve Donart; otherwise, the man- agement remains the same. A. J. Burt felt pleased to receive the order for a large bouquet of Hoosier Beauty roses for Mrs. Woodrow Wilson during her visit here with the Presi- dent. An American flag of red, white and blue asters was sent out by A. J. Burt, the red asters being the Heart of France variety. P. Leavy & Sons are bringing in ex- ceptionally fine Early Frost and Golden Glow mums. They have increased their range by adding one house 28x100, which they have planted to carnations. Peters & Sons, of Hillyard, Wash., have added two large houses 30x200 to their range and planted them to late chrysanthemums, planning to follow the mums with vegetables. The H. L. Olsson Co. has added several thousand feet to their range at Moran Prairie and have planted one house en- tirely to roses. Mrs. J. C. Ambruster, 812 East Au- gusta avenue, is desirous of forming a dahlia club and has asked the coopera- tion of local dahlia growers for that pur- pose. Mrs. Ambruster believes that in color, size and shape, the dahlias grown here are superior to any that she has seen, either in California or in England, during her twenty years' experience. , E. C.

There |ire but few weeks in the winter wlien laurel can not be {gathered fresh from the woods, so that dealers can keep a small stock on hand and by so doing always be ready to supply their trade with freshly cut laurel.

There will be no such word as surplus used in the nursery trade this year, says Storrs & Harrison Co. The effect of the war on exports from France of plants and shrubs for nursery and greenhouse use is shown by compara- tive figures in metric quintals (each 220.46 pounds) for the first half of each year as follows: 85,858 in 1913; 86,876 in 1914; 28,842 in 1915; 36,007 in 1916; 36,398 in 1917; 23,173 in 1918 and 23,802 in 1919. OBOP STATISTICS FAVORED. Carrying out the proposal made at the Chicago convention last June, the offi- cers of the A. A. N. plan to ask the House committee on agriculture to include an appropriation of $50,000 for the purpose of gathering statistics on supplies of nursery stock of all kinds. Statistics on other crops are already being gath- ered, and with all that machinery al- ready in operation, the government can undertake this work at far less expense than those in the nursery trade itself. The officials of the, Bureau of Crop Statistics have expressed themselves as favorable to the undertaking. Members of the Federal Horticultural Board have also expressed themselves as favoring the project. It appears likely that the Department of Agriculture as a whole will give cordial and hearty support to the association's request. That support is necessary in order to secure favorable consideration by the House committee on agriculture. The nursery stock grown in this coun- try is scattered over a wide area and it often happens that what is scarce in one section is plentiful in other sections. Yet sales are missed and plantings are delayed frequently because of lack of information that could readily enough balance shortage and surplus. It would seem that an ideal way to get these statistics is through the Bu- reau of Crop Statistics of the Depart- ment of Agriculture at Washington, be- cause its figures would be accepted as impartial and free from any interest ex- cept that of accuracy. It would not be suggested, says Secretary John Watson, that information be furnished of sup- plies held by individuals, but that the statistics cover only total quantiti^ of varieties in different ages in separate states or divisions. NUBSEBY STOCK IN FINIiAND. Apples, pears, cherries and plums are grown in the open in Finland. The only important fruit tree is the apple, of which 150,000 to 200,000 trees are used annually. Only a few thousand grafts are imported, however, and these, without exception, have come from Ger- many or Sweden. Domestic production has proved more satisfactory, on account of the difficulty of getting original Peonies - Irises Good assortment for commercial planting.

The nurserymen suggest the possibil- ity of the importation of small experi- mental lots of hardy trees from the colder sections of the United States, reports Consul Parker W. Buhrman, from Helsingfors, as such trees will probably be better adapted to the cli- mate of Finland. DAVENPORT, R. ISLAITO, MOLINE. The Market. Trade was inclined to be quiet last week. Koses are of good quality and enough for the needs of the trade, tar- nations are none too plentiful as yet, but the quality is improving. A few mums are to be had. Club Meeting. The Tri-City Florists' Club met at the residence of Julius Staack, Moline, 111., October 9, with a good attendance. The topic of the evening was pre- sented by W. C. Wilson, who chose as his subject "Hardy Native Shrubs." The talk proved to be one of the best so .far. He gave a descriptive list of such plants, their beauty and uses, that was instructive and showed keen obser- vation on his part and that also brought out the fact that such plants are com- paratively little used in our parks and landscape work. The November meeting will be held at the residence of C. O. E. Boehm, Davenport. The date is to be an- nounced later. There will be no con- flict with the dates of the fall show of the Iowa State Society at Des Moines November 12 to 15. Supper was served and a vote of thanks was given Mr. and Mrs. Julius Staack for their hospitality. Various Notes. Julius Staack & Sons, Moline, are putting in two refrigerating rooms of tile and concrete construction and will install an artificial cooling plant as soon as possible. Henry I'auli, Davenport, has let a contract for an up-to-date refrigerating machine for immediate delivery. W. G.

PAPER STOCK CO. Chicago, Illinois 102 The Florists^ Review SOCHESTEB, N. Y. The Market. The market last week was exception- ally good and all kinds of stock were cleared. It is perfect fall weather here and the nights and mornings are quite cold. Several frosts have been recorded and the greater part of the outdoor stock has perished, except that which has been sheltered in various ways. Small quantities of asters of poor qual- ity, phlox and candytuft are seen daily and sell at fair prices. Gladioli of good quality continue to reach us. Some beautiful red varieties are seen and sell well. Lighter shades are also much in demand for funeral work. Orchids are arriving in good supply and the present demand is considered good. Gardenias are also in fine condition, but with no special demand throughout this section. The supply of violets more than equals the demand; their quality is fair for this part of the season. Carnations are improving right along, the demand be- ing at present more than the supply. Prices on good stock bring as high as $8 per hundred. Chrysanthemums are just beginning to make a good showing, but the blossoms are not extra large. However, they sell well at prices equal to those of last year. They include lavender, pink, yellow and white. Eoses are plentiful in all grades and in- clude splendid stock in Eussell, Sun- burst, Ward, Columbia, Maryland, Mar- tinette, Septmber Morn, Champ Wei- land, Ophelia, Hoosier Beauty, Milady, Premier and the Killarneys. American Beauties are selling better. Cecile Brunners are in fair demand. Little is seen in the way of lilies, but a few reach us at intervals. Snapdragons, cos- mos, zinnias, African daisies and mar- ^erites are all seen, but the supply is pmall. Green goods of all kinds are plentiful. Various Notes. Miss Ruth Ingram, of Hart & Vick, Jnc, spent the week-end at Pultney- ville, N. Y., going by auto. Dewey Lester, recently returned from overseas, has joined the sales force of the Rochester Floral Co. Funeral and wedding work has been exceptionally heavy with this firm during the last few weeks. With the idea of promoting interest in the Rochester Airplane Association, Georg9 T. Boucher and Salter Bros, are exhibiting in their windows full-sized propellers, which are attracting consid- erble attention. Yet another of our local florists, Frank Lavigne, Jr., has announced his marriage, which took place in the early part of last week. Among the visitors last week were H. De Witt, of the De Witt-Boag Co., of Hornell, N. Y., and the representa- tive of the McCallum Co., Pittsburgh, Pa. Miss Kate Harvey, who has recently returned from Cleveland, is now in the employ of Alberts the Florist, at Main and Franklin streets. The monthly meeting of the Rochester Florists' Association was called for Fri- day evening, October 10, but, because so many other attractions came on the same night, only four members were present. Consequently, the meeting was called off. It is a regrettable fact that for some reason or other the meetings OCTOBBB 16, 1919.

CLEVELAND, O. The Market. The market in the first part of last week was kept fairly clean and pros- pects were bright, but the warm weather flooded the market with dahlias the later part of the week and few were moving. A few gladioli are still avail- able. Chrysanthemums have been sell- ing easily at from $5 to $7 per dozen for the larger grades. Carnations also cleaned up well, the quality improving from day to day. Some outdoor pom- pons made their appearance, but the quality was poor. Eoses are arriving in quantity, with a good demand, the longer grades being cleaned up on sight and the shorts going well also. Snap- dragon sold well. Zinnias, marigolds, calendulas and other outdoor stock sold easily. Single and double violets found a ready market. American Beauties have been moving rather slowly, espe- cially the longer grades. Greens are plentiful and luivo a good demand. Various Notes. Walter Rokusek, formerly with the ^Cleveland Cut Flower Co., is now with the J. M. Gasser Co.

The social calendar for the coming season is already the largest announced in this city in many years and, as a considerable number of debutante func- tions are already scheduled, the call for flowers and decorations is certain to be large. An unusual number of society weddings with the attendant prelimi- nary affairs are also announced for the next few months. The season has opened with a rush at a much earlier date than usual and the demand is already being felt. Early chrysanthemums are rapid sellers. Boses are showing improvement as to quality and quantity, ranging last week from $3 to $15 per hundred. Carnations were scarce at $3 to $6 per hundred, asters have practically gone and gladioli are on the last cuttings. Violets are not plentiful, but show signs of recover- ing the prestige that they have lost dur- ing the last few years and are expected to take a prominent place in the com- ing season's demand. Chrysanthemums are coming into the market in greater numbers and command $15 per hun- dred. Various Notes. Johnston Bros, had the decorations for the dinner at the University Club last week in honor of Cardinal Mercier. O. Gnatt, of the Ove Gnatt Co., of La Porte, Ind., and one of that firm's sales representatives were visitors here last week. As a feature of its fifth anniversary sale, for two hours on Saturday Sum- iiicrfield's hcnsakold store sold Boston ferns in 5-iuch pots at 19 cents. They handled over 5,000 plants. One won- ders how much the grower made. "William J. Sword, of Valley Falls, has just completed a fine ofBce building and has added a large touring car to his equipment. Benjamin Verduccilli, who has been associated with J. Ennis of the Hamp- den Meadow Greenhouses for some time, has given up his position, having pur- chased the greenhouses of George Barker at Warren. Samuel Kinder had the church and house decorations for the big Stone- Howe wedding at Bristol last week. George L. Stillman, of Westerly, has been elected first vice-president of the American Dahlia Society. Joseph Neuschuez is completely reno- vating and repainting the Bank Street Greenhouses at North Attleboro.

After the joint conference of coal operators and miners had adjourned twice after a deadlock, once at Buffalo and a second time at Philadelphia, the announcement of a general strike reached the public press, only to be shortly after qualified by the report that both sides were desirous of further parley and that they might meet again, probably in Washington. When the Buffalo meeting adjourned the miners refused the operators' choice of Washington as the next meeting place, fearing the influence of govern- ment officials nu^ht be used to force a settlement which would not allow their demands. That government officials are instrumental in bringing the two sides together once more is indicated and it seems likely that an agreement will be reached. The operators refused to consider the miners' demands for a sixty per cent wage increase, a 6-hour day, a 5-day week, time and a half for overtime and double time for Sundays and holidays. The miners would submit no other pro- posal at Philadelphia and John L. Lewis, acting president of the United Mine Workers of America, stated an order would be issued shortly for a gen- eral strike November 1. Since the fuel administration sup- ports tlie operators, holding that the present contract is binding until peace is promulgated or until March 31, 1920, there is likelihood of government in- fluence bearing toward an adjustment of the difficulties, on a basis of reduc- tion of the miners' excessive demands. USING NATTJEAIi GAS. I have a small greenhouse, 20x34. We shall have natural gas this winter and, 88 I have always heated it with a small air-tight heater fired with wood, I am anxious to know if some such arrange- ment cannot be used with gas instead. Our winters seldom reach 10 above zero and I have never had any trouble in iceeping the temperature high enough to pMnrent freezing inside. I grow carna- tions and similar hardy plants, so that it is not necessary to maintain a partic- ularly high temperature. I have been told that burning gas would create fumes that would kill everything in the house, but I cannot see why it would do so if the gas was burned in a stove in the same way that we burned the wood. C. R. R.— Tex. If it were possible to burn the gas without allowing any of it to escape into the greenhouse, the plan suggested could undoubtedly be used, but we doubt if it can be done. Coal gas is fatal to plant life. By placing a small hot water heater, or a stove into which a coil could be run, in a room entirely shut off from the greenhouse, it would be possible to use natural gas to provide heat for a hot water system, which could be installed at a comparatively small expense. A 2-inch overhead flow i)ipe, connect- ii.g at the farther end of the house with I wo coils each containing three lVL'-i"rteli r-turns along the side walls or under ihe benches, would provide the neces- sary radiation for a carnation house oKROESCHELL BOILERS] Neither in the East or West nor the North or South has any other ' malce off Boiler ever equaied the performance off the Kroeschell.

If the beds are so located that a good fall can be secured, it will often be ad- visable to provide bottom heat. This can be secured by running a 2-inch pipe on each wall as a flow and connecting OTch of them with a return pipe nine inches below the surface and eighteen inches from the sides of the beds. In arranging the main flow, and return pipes to supply the beds, one should keep in mind that a 2-inch main will 3iswer for 200 square feet of radia- on; a 2*4-inch main is sufficient for ^0 square feet, and 3-inch and 4-inch mains may be used for 800 and 1,200 square feet, respectively, of radiation. HEATING OEOBGIA HOUSES. We are about to install a hot water system in our two greenhouses, which are 17x90 each. We wish to maintain a temperature of 50 degrees with 15 de- grees above zero outside. We have a boiler of thirty horsepower, with a wood-burning grate 2^4x4 feet. We are putting in 2% -inch flow pipes, with six returns of IV^-inch pipe in each house. Will that be sufficient for our needs T Are the boiler and pipes to be entirely full of water when cold, or will there have to be some space left for expan- sion? V. G. — Ga. While we have had no practical expe- rience in the heating of greenhouses under conditions similar to those ctut- lined in this query, we are of the opinion that the radiation suggested would answer if the houses were built side by side and had but one exposed wall. The sketch accompanying the letter indi- cates that they have two feet of glass in one wall at least. If each house has glass exposed in both side walls, ,we should prefer an additional return in each house, although it would answer without that in ordinary winter weather, and the temperature mentioned could be maintained with a little extra atten- tion to the firing when the mercury di'ops to 15 degrees above zero. From the sketch' it appears that the plan is to have the returns run back and forth under the benches. Instea'd of ar- ranging them in that way, we should connect the returns so as to make three separate coils, each containing two l*,^- inch pipes. Place one coil under each side bench and the other under the middle bench and connect each coil both with the 214-inch overhead flow pipe at the end farthest from the boiler and with the 214-inch main return at the other end of the house by means of 1%-inch pipes. If the houses have ex- posed glass in both walls, use three re- turns in the middle coil. Run the main flow pipe about eighteen inches below the ridge, with a fall of six inches in the length of the house. Give the returns a similar slope towards the boiler, which, if possible, should be located so that it will be entirely below the lowest part of the returns, although it will answer if the returns are slightly above the bot- tom of the boiler. In order to secure a circulation, all of the pipes must be filled with water and, since the boiler will be consider- ably lower than the highest part of the aystem, it will always be filled. To pro- vide for the expansion of the water, connect the highest part of the system with an expansion tank holding ten gal- A Prominent Carnation Grower Says This About the Standard Recording Thermometer ORDER NOW $35.00 Lancaster, Pa.

BRAMPTON, ONT. The Market. The heavy frosts the week before last flpoiled all outdoor stock and the de- mand for greenhouse flowers has set in more keenly than ever. In fact, at no time in the history of th » country has business been so good. The same re- port comes from all quarters and the ojttly fly in the ointment is the inability of growers to supply the ever increasing demands for stock. Weddings are con- ducted inoref after the style of pre-war conditions and are occurring more fre- quently than ever. The higher prices of flowers, necessitated by the in- creased cost of labor and production, do »not seem to be any handicap and, judging by present conditions, the com- injg winter is likely to eclipse all others in every respect. There is no gainsaying the fact that the advertising slogan of the trade, ''Say It with Flowers," has had a great influence among the buying public. In fact, it may be said without fear of contradiction that no other scheme ever put forward in the interests of florists has attained such generally beneficial results. The chrysanthemum season is almost in fuU swing and the exportation of orchids to the United States testifies to the increased demand for this exclusive bloom, especially in the spray varieties. Violets have just been taken utider glass from outdoors; so it is as yet diffi- cult to prophesy how they are going to turn out. Carnations have not yet come into crop in any quantity. It may, how- ever, safely be prognosticated that the demand for all kinds of stock will be so great during the coming months that the supply will be on the short side all the time. Various Notes. Only three or four of the larger grow- ers added to their premises this year, since most of the others did not dare to risk the increased cost of building, so that the sum total of the additional glass area throughout the Dominion would hardly cover more than three acres. The third of the three new green- kouses erected by the Lord & Burnham Co. for the Dale Estate has just been completed, but the new heating plant is not likely to be finished before the end of the year. The disputed case, Dale Estate vs. J. H. McCauley, which has been before the courts since last November, was set- tled in favor of the former. This means that the two and one-half acres of green- houses formerly owned by William Pendley pass into the possession of the Dale Estate. Next year they will be remodeled and become incorporated into an area of glass that will then total twenty-seven acres. C. Hotchkiss has recently returned from England and John Crook is about to return to his duties after a visit to the old country. Conditions are such in England at present that most of the men who return seem to have made up their minds to regard Canada as their future home. W. G. P.

CHARCOAL affords drainage For Heavy Soils A small quantity of size 1 (nut) charcoal, evenly distributed at the bottom of plants and beds, provides excellent drainuKc by absorbing extra moisture und by retaining a sufiBcient auantily until required by the plant. Charcoal is a double-action material. It se- cures and supplies, in abundant Quantities, var ous things essential for plant nourishment, such ajj carbon dioxide, nitrogen, moisture, etc. Charcoal once supplied, sufficiently, to any bed, needs but little renewing. ?PrJce«: F.

CHICAQO A Glazing Putty of Real Value In all our experience and investigation we had nevef found a preparation for bulbing over the outside of a greetihouse that was quite satisfactory, until we ran across PERMANITE. This was about four years ago. At that time we set about investigating the merits of PERMANITE and proceeded to watch the results of its application to greenhouse roofs. Last year we were entirely convinced of its high quality and durability, and ac- cepted ihe western agency for the sale of these goods. - ' We applied PERMANITE to hundreds of greenhouse roofs, over almost every part of the United States. The results obtained were highly satis- factory indeed. Glass roofs of all kinds, both old and new, were made water-tight and air-tight, saving thousands of plants from being spoiled by water dripping on them and saving many hundreds of tons of coal by making the roofs proof against the wind and storms of winter. We give PERMANITE our unqualified endorsement and recommend it highly for all kinds of glazing. We have a very large stock on hand in our warehouse and can ship imme- diately.

A florist can grow plants much better with thor- oughly ground up sods and fertilizers. It releases plant food elements you can't utilize by old methods. This pulverizer will grind up sods, barnyard manure, leaf mold, ashes, oyster and clam shells,, burnt lime-rock and other materials used for good soil. This pulverizer will save you a lot ' of work, grow better crops, and its cost is very reasonable for a first-class pulverizer.

Dahlias and cosmos still reign. There has been no sign of frost here and, until we have a good one, all green- house stock will drag. The slowness of business has beeu due to the sultry weather and to the fact that the streets were full of outside stock. Orchids were not so scarce last week and could be bought as cheap as $1 each. Club Meeting. There was an interesting meeting of the Florists' Club Wednesday, October 1, when some fine specimens of dahlias were shown by the president, Z. D. Blackistone. George C. Shaffer, chair- man of the entertainment, committee, supplied the members with some won- derful cats and some "almost" beer. Various Notes. The Louise Flower Shop has a num- ber of weddings on for this month. The firm also has a large landscape job, which is said to be one of the biggest undertakings of this kind that Wash- ington has ever seen. G. A. Leissler is now with the Louise Flower Shop. All the trade is looking forward to "Say It with Flowers" week with great hope. With close cooperation and hard work this event will be a great success. Gude Bros. Co. is installing a 3-ton refrigerating apparatus made by Kroeschell Bros. Co., Chicago, the type which has been adopted by a consider- able number of Chicago wholesale flo- rists and growers. Grand Bapids, N. D.— The Flower Shop has been opened under the manage- ment of Mrs. B. G. Wager in the build- ing formerly occupied by the McElroy Grocery, 408 DeMers avenue. Norwallc, O. — The Norwalk Eose Gar- dens Co., of which Stephen Jones is superintendent, has made large improve- ments at its range, including an addi- tion to its heating system, and in the spring will erect five new greenhouses. Material for these is now on the ground. In one of its houses this firm has 1,500 rose plants that are just coming into bloom.

And he also knows that Permanite costs less per yedrs of service, because PERMANITE does not harden, remains ever-elastic and is guaranteed to outlast putty three to four times. If quality and service mean anything at all to you — just say the word — and we shall gladly send you further information; and don't for- get to ask for particulars about the new one- hand Permanite Gun — it will do your glazing in less than half the usual time.

Why are the Michigan grown bulbs better than Holland bullm? (1) No ocean trip to hurt the bulbs. (2) The bulbs ripen better In Michigan than in Holland.

The Schmidt ft Botley Co., Springfield, O. ROSES. Remember, these come from one of the largest sources for Roses in the country and will say that when you talk to them about roses, you are talking to men who have learned their subject. These roses are grown in quantity and shipped everywhere that they can be safely sent to. They are grown in a commercial way and sold in a commercial way. If you expect stock that is In bloom, or ready to bloom, then better send your order to the other fellow and not to me. But what I am offering and what I have ofTered in the past are Rose plants from 214-in. ix)ts. As to time of delivery, will say that due to the great drouth the past season, there is an enormous demand for stock of all kinds, and probably while you are ordering, possibly thou- sands and thousands of others are doing like- wise and these all center at the growers and so the positive rule of orders filled in rotation re- ceived must be carried out, so you will have to await your turn for delivery, maybe one week, maybe one month, before your order is readied. It is really amusing tliat even so many florists who ought to know conditions better (for they get their busy seasons, as Christmas or Decora- tion Day), but will sit down and write, "Please send me one thousand roses at once." We are living in an abnormal period and must adjust according to conditions and if you are one that think you can fight the present condition, whether or no, then please don't send your order liere for roses; in fact, this also applies to all other stock. If you would stop but one moment to consider tliat I am probably trying to tell you of something you might not be aware of. as you might not come into contact with the actual condition as I do and I am really paying through tliis advertisement to inform you, which I trust will or might benefit you, even though you do not buv througli me.

Are you going to jump right ia now and order your rose house, so you will have it all ready for planting next March? Or are you going to sit by and wait till next Spring, and then run your legs off trying to get your new house ready for June planting? You know only too well how long it actually takes roses to crank up," and get into full running power. You know that June planted stock doesn't begin to give the actual dollar and cents cut that March planted ones do. You know that it isn't so much a question of how many months your house is in actual crop, as how much of a crop you have when prices are highest. A lot of the growers laughed at French Salm A when they rented the YorkvilJe houses in March. They thought they weie paying rent from March to June, all for nothing. But you know the crop they cut that first year— and the money they made, and have made every year since. What's the use of waiting until everybody else adopts a money-making method before you do? Get the edge on the other fellows before they get it on you. Order your rose house now, for erection in time for March rose planting; or have us erect it right away and get in a crop of veg- etables to turn you in some extra dollars btfore March. As for prices on greenhouses — there's no need to wait, thinking materials will be lower. Even if they should be, they won't come down below the price we can make you right now, because we bought materials in sufficient (luantities before they went up so high. We will gladly share this advantage with you, just as we have been doing with so many others. But we can't make such an offer hold good indefinitely; so let's get to- gether and have a talk as soon as possible. You say when and where, and we'll be there.

Now more than ever before does the American public demand Novelty and Quality in its cut flowers. The grower who makes the money is the man who has the courage of his convictions and when he sees a new Rose that his judgment tells him is good, purchases it liber- ally and gets the cream of the market while his neighbor is still making up his mind what to grow. To such a grower we commend our two Novelties in Roses for the coming year. Frank W. Dunlop -^ Madame Butterfly (Dunlop) (Hill) I THE IMPROVED RUSSELL THE GLOI^IFIED OPHELIA Dunlop, is a seedling of Russell with Mrs. Shawyer as the pollen parent and combines all the good points of Russell with the quick, free growth of Shawyer, so noticeable in Columbia, the other Shawyer off-spring. Butterfly, is a glorified sport of the popular Opheha, and also orignated with the E. G. Hill Co. It is even freer in growth than its parent and the flower is a glorious com- bination of pink, apricot and gold. Our judgment in Roses is justified by our previous introductions: Sunburst, Ophelia, Shawyer, Columbia, Premier all bearing testimony to judgment vindicated.^ Come and see these varieties growing any time and you will be always welcome.

Q. D. Butler. NAME OF CALIFORNIA FUCHSIA. In reply to the query of O. D. W. in The Review for October 16, I find in Bailey's cyclopedia, new edition, that Zauschneria californica is commonly called California fuchsia, humming bird's trumpet or balsamea. It is a "half hardy ])erennial with the flowers of a fuchsia and the fruits of an epilo- biuni." If O. D. W. has access to Bai ley's cyclopedia, he can find additional information on page .■!538. Frank J. Matthews. "SIX DAYS SHALT THOU LABOR." I am indeed glad to see that the flo- rists of America are beginning to realize that closing on Sundays is the thing to do. I have closed my place on the Sab- bath for many years. It is the right thing to do for every reason. Life is too short to spend it all in the store or greenhouse. Besides, a florist can make just as much money in six business days as in seven. H. R. Fisher. SUNDAY CLOSING PROFITABLE. Fourteen years ago, after twenty-one successful years of closed Sundays in another business, I took over the Port Allegany Greenhouses, which were at that time dicing some Sunday business. I knew nothing of the business and had one competitor. I was repeatedly told that I should be obliged to sell on Sun- day or else lose trade, but on both re- ligious and business grounds I believed that I ought to continue to keep closed on Sunday. I have never kept the greenhouses open or sold on Sunday, except occa- sionally for funerals. My business has increased each year; last year the re- ceipts were fifty-nine per cent greater than those of any previous year. My year's coal bill and my taxes are paid and I am entirely out of debt. As a result of my own experience, therefore, my advice is to "trust and obey" and reap a greater harvest, in every sense of the word, by Sunday closing. Mrs. M. E. G. Ventres. A BOSTONIAN'S IDEA. Regarding the situation on the restric- tion of palms, azaleas, etc., coming into this country from Belgium, I think it would be advisable to appeal to the King of Belgium, who arrived October 2 in this countTy, and ask him to use his best influence with Washington, D. C, to have that law repealed. A. C. Caplan. AN EASY COURTESY. We are located well out of the lines of travel for employees and at times have to resort to the valuable columns of The Review for help wanted. In many cases replies that we make to ad- vertisements for positions are never an- swered. We should suggest a little no- tice at the head of the Help Wanted columns — or rather Situations Wanted — to the effect that acknowledgment of a reply to an advertisement, whether an acceptance of not, is but a courteous and just expectation on the part of the persons answering such advertisements and would, we feel sure, be appreciated by many in the business. State Nursery & Seed Co. TWO GOOD NEW CANNAS. I have been much im])ressed with some of the new cannas I have tried this summer and cannot refrain from mentioning two of such merit that florists should secure a supply and work up a stock by spring. These are the President and Snow Queen. President is by all odds the best red canna today, larger and better than Firebird and a free bloomer; the foliage is strong and does not burn, as does that of Firebird. Those who have tried Firebird and la- mented that it would not do on account of diseased foliage will rejoice to know that at last we have a canna that is "right." Snow Queen is whiter than any other canna on the market.. It is also one of the largest individual flowers among cannas of any color, is as free as the freest, and the trusses are of enormous size. It has a better habit of growth and better foliage than either Eureka or Flag of Truce, the best two whites heretofore. Only in the best reds do we find anything that . ap- jiroaches it in general value. Flovd Bralliar. BRIEF ANSWERS. A. M. C, Ark.— Plant the roses in the spring. They will require winter j)ro- tection. F. C, Ind. — Bougainvillea glabra Sanderiana. G. C. S., Va. — Sulphur is insoluble in water.

T. D. SEEKS SOLUTION. Question in Various Forms. Appearing in different forms and turning up from various angles, the problem of obtaining help occupied a good deal of time during the second day of tlie F. T. D. convention at Buf- falo last week. Profit-sharing plans, Sunday closing, better hours and a frank appeal of distress in obtaining efficient employees all bore on the sub- ject uppermost in many members' minds. So desirous were they of getting one another's help on it that, although the meeting was to have ended with Wednesday morning's session, the gathering was called together again in the afternoon. Vincent J. Gorly, of St. Louis, took the floor for a plain statement of his firm's difficulties in securing employees of the proper sort and asked what others in the trade had done toward meeting the problem. Sunday Closing Will Help. Although the difficulty was more poignant in some places than others, the general opinion was that conditions must be bettered to make employment more attractive. Shortening of hours and Sunday closing were advocated as two of the most satisfactory methods of improving the situation. No sooner was the subject of Sunday closing broached than there were a number of enthusiastic supporters on their feet ready to push it along. To those who wished to close Sunday but did not know how to get the other flo- rists in town to fall in line, George M. Geraghty, of Toronto, emphatically re- plied: "You say you're going to try to get the other fellows to do it. Good Lord, man, do it yourself! " Miss Getz, of Weatman & Getz, Cleve- land, said that when the firm started business seventeen years ago with a strict Sunday closing policy, gloomy prognosticators gave them six months in which to fail. Without ever having opened on Sunday in that time, she de- clared, the firm was still "giving the others at least a run for their money." In St. Louis, stated Fred C. Weber, Jr., the Retail Florists' Association is working for a municipal ordinance compelling closed shops on Sunday. So stirring became the speeches that at length Herman P. Knoble rose to say that, though he had had doubts in his mind before, he was going home to Cleveland from the convention to close the store of Knoble Bros, the next Sunday. A letter was read from the Chicago Retail Florists' Association, signed by L. R. Bohannon and E. Wienhoeber, advocating Sunday closing. Proflt-Sliarlng Plans. In regard to various plans for shar- ing profits with employees, those who had tried them expressed dissatisfac- tion, either because their own plans were, they thought, in need of improve- ment, or because they believed the ob- ject, that of producing a feeling of con- tent among employ^-es, was not ob- tained. Max Schling declared the system pro- duced dissatisfaction instead of satis- faction, because if the employer's prof-, its were good the employees believed their share should be larger. Unrest in- stead of content, he stated, was the re- sult. As all plans were experimental, no definite system could be outlined. In- deed, it was not certain that any would be a success. The question of employees was one that required foresight, declared Philip Breitmeyer. Those who foresaw the present conditions several years ago are benefiting now, and those who be- BITS FROM BUFFALO. Sunday Closing. ' ' You say you 're going to try to get the other fellows to do it.

Recommendations on Address. The committee on the president's ad- dress, after commending it highly and as worthy of more than one reading, made several recommendations. Inas- much as Canada had so strongly at- tended this meeting, there being four- teen from Toronto alone, and the Cana- dians were so desirous of entertaining the F. T. D. in Toronto, the committee recommended that place for the 1921 meeting. The subject of publicity was em- phasized and the members of the F. T. D. urged to greater support of the na- tional publicity campaign. A tabulation of the results of "Say It with Flowers" week in the cities where it is held this year was urged, in order to provide aid to still further adoption of the project next season. The committee also advised that the secretarv should send out to members such suggestions for the improvement of sales as should come to his notice. In this way his office would be a clear- ing house of ideas for the retailers. Shipping Problem to Fore. Calling attention to the large number of complaints in regard to express and freight shipments of flowers and plants, Ira S. Harper, of the A. W. Smith Co., Pittsburgh, urged the necessity of fair dealing between consignor and con- signee. He stated that the, seller, since his responsibility ended when he turned the goods over to the carrier, did not sufficiently consider the purchaser, whose disappointment and loss were not confined to the actual Value of the ship- ment but often amounted to far more in the way of meeting urgent needs and rendering satisfactory service. Mr. Harper proposed that the trade adopt a contract by which the purchaser and seller should agree to bear jointly such carriage losses as might be in- curred. Thus both parties would make claim against the carrier companies and therefore seller as well as purchaser be vitally concerned in proper packing and shipment. Bargain Sales Helpful? While Henry Penn was speaking on the subject of publicity, Paul R. Klingsporn, of the Chicago Flower Growers' Association, Chicago, asked his opinion as to the benefit or hurt to the trade of department stores' bargain counter sales in the time of a glut. Mr. Penn gave it as his opinion that the buyers of such stock were not likely to be florists' patrons, and therefore such sales had an educative value. This, said Mr. Klingsporn, was in ac- cord with his opinion, that de[)artment stores did actual missionary work in such cases and took not a nickel 's worth of trade from the flower store. "Sajr It with Flowers" Week. Z. r)v Rlackistono. president of the Florists' Club of Washington and pro- moter of "Say It with Flowers" week, brought the project before the associa- tion, asking for such action as would spread its adoption in v.-irious cities of the country. In sujjjiort, Charles H. (Jrakelow took the floor for a lengthy exposition of how Philadel])lua carried out this week while the convention was in progress. By means of billboards, none smaller than 10x40 and some 20x;')0; by cir- cularizing lists of customers; by news- paper advertising and feature articles; by distribution of flowers during the home-coming week j)aradp, to the churches on Sunday and to the hospitals Wednesday; by the use of 10,000 poster cards and 10,000 stickers; by pennants and decorations, the florists of Phila- delphia carried home the slogan "Say It with Flowers" to all the citizens of the community. The added phrase, "Ask Your Florist," and the employ- ment of the phrase "up-to-date flo- rist" in connection with the event served to unite the trade and bring the slower ones up with the rest. In the 20 The Florists^ Review OCTOBBB 23, 1019. shops music in the evenings attracted an unusual number of visitors. In- deed, Philadelphia, as displayed to the F. T. D. by Mr. Grakelow, won much applause. The meeting, heartily favoring the week as an annual institution, passed Mr. Blackistone 's resolution, which read as follows: WHEREAS: The Florists' Telegraph Delivery ABSoclation in annual meeting' assembled takes notice of the move'ment, "Say It with Flowers" week, instituted and inaugurated by the Florists' Club of Washington for the purpose, first, of wel- coming their respectlTe customers of the previous or former seasons a"nd the general public into their establishments and to remind them of the formal opening of the floral season; secondly, to display the beauty and perfection of the new wealth of the flora family, and thirdly, to ad- vertise and popularize flowers as gifts for all occasions. WHEREAS: For years It has been the cus- tom of various lines of commerce and art at the propitious season to have their openings, dis- plays, shows and exhibitions for the purpose of educating and enlightening the public on the respective subjects in which they are Interested. AND WHEREAS: The haphazard manner in which the floral season in each community has been inaugurated makes it above all other lines of commerce essential that there should be a combined effort among the allied Interests of each individual community to have a general and grand opening at a fav6rable date, according to the geographical location and the existing con- ditions. THEREFORE BB IT RESOLVED: That this association recognizes in this a splendid move- ment for publicity and an opportnnlty to increase the love of flowers and the dissemination of them. and further, that this association goes on record as unequivocally indorsing and recommending that each community shall adopt this as an annual event in their floral year. The Prize- Winning Windows. All twelve of the windows at Buffalo were of high character and received the commendation of the judges. In the absence of any of the committee when the decision was announced, Mrs. Henry Penn was called upon and gave a few words of gracious praise, refrain- ing modestly from extended comment because she was not one of the judges, but merely the wife of one of them. The window of S, A. Anderson 's Main street store, which took first prize, was composed of a large globe of green, on which the western continents appeared in white flowers. Around the circum- ference ran telegraph messengers. From the globe to telegraph instru- ments in the front of the window ran several bright copper wires. At the Delaware avenue store of W. J. Palmer & Son, taking second prize, the window held a large map on a cir- cular background, constructed in the fashion of a topographical model. From one city to another ran wires, to which were attached small yellow card- boards representing telegrams. When the board revolved, these yellow bits of board shot from one to another, slid- ing along the wires. The board was built upon an automobile wheel, which was turned by a small electric motor. In the other window were life-sized wax models, showing a maid opening a box of flowers just given her by a messenger for the gray-haired mother seated in a chair, and in a corner an enlarged let- ter from the son who had telegraphed the flowers. The window of the Wm. Scott Co. contained a huge book, which told of the facilities of the F. T. D. and how orders were executed. To this display was awarded the third prize. Messages from the Absent. Samuel Murray sent a telegram of re- gret and felicitations from Kansas City. A. E. King, of Winnipeg, Manitoba, wired that a bumper season was in prospect in his city and he wished for a like one for F. T. D. members. From San Francisco came a telegram of regret from Vincent Matraia, of the Art Floral Co., who hoped for a suc- cessful convention. Other Items. "Beginning with its mention in Presi- dent Gude's address, Sunday closing brought forth loud and long applause at each mention of it. Visiting the United States incognito, the president of the Canadian Horticul- tural Association, Emery B. Hamilton, of London, Ont., sat through the ses- sions unmentioned and unheard. J. W. Grandy, of Norfolk, Va., sent in the application for membership of his "next door neighbor," as he called him. A little sermon on cooperafion versus competition followed from Albert Poehelon. They have it in Norfolk, where, Mr. Grandy says, the five flo- rists in town are now to be found in his store nearly as much as in their own. W. L. Bock followed the Grandy ex- ample by bringing the membership of the Alpha Floral Co. from Kansas City. When the acknowledgments began to return from the mayors of various cities for baskets sent by the F. T. D., one came regretting the inability to deliver to the mayor of Tarrytown, N. Y., who was attending a convention in Buffalo. And F. R. Pierson had to make a speech. Blooms of Rose Cornelia, exhibited by Robert Scott & Son, of Sharon Hill, Pa., on the president's table, are pre- served by Buffalo citizens as memen- tos of Cardinal Mercier's visit, after they had been showered on the primate as he passed the hotel. Before they vanished, however, they were an object of much interest. The rose is a cross of Mrs. Aaron Ward and Ophelia. John Young, secretary of the S. A. F., was warmly welcomed when he spoke on the subject of the national publicity campaign and its progress. George Asmus supported him strongly. The national publicity committee was in session till midnight during the first day of the convention, considering the matter of raising funds more expedi- tiously. Major O'Keefe had to return to Boston immediately afterward and therefore could not address the F. T. D. members. Size of F. T. D. Orders. In the press of urgent topics of dis- cussion at Buffalo Secretary Poehelon did not present his tabulation of the returns from his questionnaire to the F. T. D. convention. The chief points of interest were brought up in connec- tion with other topics. The size of orders was little touched upon, and the table made by Mr. Poehelon of the 217 replies he received will be interesting. They were as follows: Average size of order Outgoing Incoming $ 4 to $ 6 31 39 6 to 8 67 4» 8 to 10 22 22 10 to 12 4 1 12 to 13 2 0 From the returns the greatest number of those who replied averaged between $6 and $8 on telegraph orders. The aver- age size, calculated from the returns of all 217 responses, was, outgoing $5.22, incoming $4.92. Napoleon, O. — The name of Fred J. Fisk's store, which he will open at Arden court this month, will be Fisk's Flower Shop. Cisco, Tex. — J. B. Ely sold his interest in The Mineral Wells Floral Co., at Mineral Wells, Tex., and has started in business here. Newport News, Va. — G. L. Sutton is president of the firm recently incor- porated as Suttons, Florists, with a capital of $10,000. Cumberland, Md. — Mabel Shryock, who has been growing garden flowers for the market for the last four years, reports a good summer's business. Hatcher Station, Oa. — R. A. Lee, owner of the Chattahoochee Floral Co., has been elected to the Georgia legis- lature from Quitman county. Bristol, Tenn. — The Bristol Floral Co., of which H. G. Bramm is president and C. F. Bowers secretary, is making a name for itself because of its carnations. The quality of the stock has been uni- formly high and the present season is starting exceptionally well; knj grower would be pleased to cut such stems and blooms in October. Amarillo, Tex. — Mrs. Lena A. Smith is beginning business for herself. Whitehouse, Fla. — Besides growing outdoor flowers, F. Arzie has a factory for making baskets from palmetto. Clifton Forge, Va. — The Alleghany Floral Co. has been incorporated with a minimum capital stock of $5,000 and a maximum of $25,000 to do a nursery, greenhouse and retail business. Its officers are W. D. Bowles, president, and L. W. Farrier, secretary. Lake Charles, La. — George S. Duflot started in business four years ago, at 622 Iris street, which certainly is a good name for the address of a florist, seeds- mand and nurseryman. His start was made with a small hotbed, 6x9, and the first crop was tomato plants only. He now has thirty hotbed sashes and a greenhouse. He recently bought the ad- joining lot, 50x208, to build another greenhouse on. Carnations, chrysanthe- mums, spring bedding plants and vege- table plants are the crops to be grown. He is planning to do a retail business in all kinds of flowers, plants and seeds. OCTOBIB 28, 1019.

"While the slogan, ' ' Say It with Tlow- «rs," is still in its infancy, it is fast becoming a robust child. While the S, A. F. proposes to spend, in the next year, $100,000 in the best advertising mediums in the country to popularize this slogan, the individual florist should equal the results of this advertising by missing no opportunity to make as much of every occasion that is the result of this advertising. There are many local •civic affairs in which flowers may be used and which, in return, will do much, through their use, to spread the indi- vidual demand for florists ' wares. Bal- timore, a city of 800,000 inhabitants, re- cently said it with flowers to the con- vention of Odd Fellows, held there in September, in a manner so expressive that it was heard in every state in the TJnion and Canada. There are many ways in which a mu- nicipality can "Say It with Flowers." Albany, N. Y., a short while ago did so in memory of her sons who made the supreme sacrifice in France. Get the cities to saying it with flowers and it will not be long until the inhabitants wtt be doing likewise. In this slogan the florists have an asset that has un- told possibilities. The thing for them to do is to commercialize it along every line possible. Let florists everywhere be on the alert for occasions such as the above and through these columns keep other cities posted on what their par- ticular city is doing to "Say It with Flowers." Not only tell what they are doing, but how it is done. Sising to the Occasion. On the Baltimore occasion referred to, a great advertisement of flowers, the value of which there is no way to esti- mate, was accomplished by a little fore- thought on the part of th'e florists, with an expense of just $40. It was simply a case of "casting your bread upon the waters, ' ' and in this case the return was much larger and sooner than expected. Early in August the mayor of the city, like the executives of all other cities, issued a proclamation to the peo- ple, welcoming the returning soldiers from France. In this proclamation he suggested that the people express their appreciation of what the boys had done and wl^at they had suffered, and he knew of no better or more expressive way to do this than to "Say It with Flowers." When the florists of the city read that proclamation,' they sat up and took notice. This made them realize how the slogan was beginning to take hold. It made them understand better than anything that had happened up to this time the possibilities the slogan possessed. At the next meeting of the Florists' Club the matter was taken up and discussed. It was decided that the fact that Baltimore had been the first city in the country to use the slogan officially should not go unnoticed. So it was voted that the club should pre- sent to the mayor an embossed letter of thanks. The cost of this letter was $40 and never was a like amount better spent. This letter was taken to his office and presented, with some cere- mony, by a committee appointed for the purpose. Results of $40. About six weeks later the I. O. O. F. convention was about to be held in the city and the question of entertaining them and of decorating the city was be- ing considered. Now, the mayor had "Say It with Flowers" stamped upon his memory; so what was more natural than for him to advocate flowers! And flowers it was. The centers of the streets were made to blossom like the rose. The florists of Baltimore themselves were surprised at what could be done with flowers. As I write this article another convention is being held in Baltimore, of the War Mothers of America, and by special re- quest this scheme of flowers was left intact to welcome these good women of our country. I might add that Mayor Broening is just beginning a 4-year ad- ministration and his initial experience in saying it with flowers has been so successful and so much appreciated by everyone that much larger things may be looked for in the future. The point I wish to make is the fact that all of this was entirely due to the Florists' Club in not letting the oppor- tunity slip which the mayor's prpclama- tion presented last summer. He had, perhaps, just heard the slogan some- where and used it as public men will on such occasions, but when the florists got behind it he realized there was more in that slogan than he had supposed. Possibilities Scarcely BeaUzed. In a speech I heard John Young de- liver recently, he emphasized the fact that the national publicity committee was using every means to discover new uses for flowers. Surely to replace bunting with flowers to decorate a city is a new use. I do not mean to say there was no bunting used in the Balti- more decorations. Yet it was proved that the use of flowers instead of bunt- ing is possible, and when one compares the two after a heavy shower, is alto- gether probable. Every florist through- out the country should watch for every opportunity out of the ordinary where flowers are used and give it publicity. The florists of this country have a slogan the value of which they as yet do not fully appreciate. Advertising experts everywhere say it is one of the best. The time has come for the florists, with their talents and means, to get behind it and push it to the place where it rightfully belongs.

Cannot something be done to impress on plant shippers the necessity of care- ful packing, with some regard for the interests of the buyer! I have for a long time refrained from ordering plants from the east for the reason that they were usually ruined when received and the money thus was wasted. Eecently, however, I have tried it again, with the same result, and am disgusted with the sellers' neglect to follow instructions regarding packing. I make some exceptions, as I have re- ceived small shipments from New York and Pennsylvania in perfect condition, packed by men who considered the buyer's end of it. Therefore, I know it is easily possible to pack so that goods will stand an eight days' journey and arrive in California in proper con- dition. Moreover, I have, to satisfy myself, packed the same kind of plants as if for shipment, left the box out ex- posed to the sun and wind, thrown it around violently occasionally, and at the end of a week or more opened it and found the stock in good condition, so it is quite evident to me that they will stand long transportation if packed with any intelligence. I have just received two small ship- ments, are from Tennessee and one from Massachusetts. One of these was packed properly and arrived in fair condition. The plants, together with all packing material, weighed six pounds and the empty box weighed fourteen pounds. In the other case the plants, with the pack- ing material, weighed five pounds and the empty container eleven pounds. Neither of these boxes was more than half filled. In the case of the second shipment, no packing material was used except one thickness of newspaper, and as it was open quite freely to the air, it could not possibly go more than one or two days without becoming dry, thus ruining the plants. In both cases I had made the request that they be sent in light containers, to avoid unnecessary express charges for the long distance, and in both instances the containers weighed at least three 'times more than was necessary. As jpRyment was made in advance, I do aot expect any redress. The plants sent were no doubt as good as offered, but what is the use if no re- gard is given to the packing? A. Beverley. DOES THE SHIPPER CARE? I was much interested in "Tate's Tips" in The Eeview of September 25, describing the proper method of pack- ing flowers for shipment. I live in the southeastern part of Texas and have ordered many different kinds of plants from different florists, but I have never yet met with such careless, indifferent ways of packing and shipping plants as I experienced last month. I sent an order September 8 to an Iowa dealer for 100 carnation plants and on the following day I sent him an- other order for 200 plants. I enclosed checks for the full amount with each , order. In due time, the first lot arrived 22 The Florists^ Review OcTOBBU 23, 1919. in an open crate with one sheet of news- paper in the bottom. The plants had been pulled or dug up and thrown any old way into the crate and were not even covered with a sheet of paper. The roots were bare, some of them be- ing thrust out between the slats, and all were pretty dry. The express agent was extremely vexed and remarked that the express company would not be re- sponsible for such negligence or for any loss of plants. He gave me a receipt stating the condition and appearance of the plants and advised me to write to the shipper at once and claim dam- ages. I did so. Two days later the sec- ond crate arrived in the same condition as the first. I have waited until nearly the middle of October for a reply, but apparently the shipper does not care. I have lost nearly half of the plants through this negligent way of packing. Mrs. E. R. Behrens. ^^^yt^l^t^tiSiJI^I^ySyi^t^t^^^lASilt^t^ul^ GROWERS GATHER CHICAGO GROWERS ACTIVE. Hold Meeting at Morton Grove. The Comm.ercial Flower Growers of Chicago traveled to Morton Grove Octo- ber 16 for a visit to the greenhouse es- tablishments at that place. The grow- ers assembled at the office of Poehl- mann Bros. Co., at .'{ p. m., and, led by Messrs. Adolph, August, Walter and Earl Poehlmann, were shown this mam- moth, modern establishment. As usual, everything was found in splendid con- dition. Great interest was displayed by the visitors in the many modern labor- saving devices employed. Particular note was taken of the coal-handling fa- cilities, which make it possible to load a 7-ton truck in thirty-five seconds. After seeing the Poehlmann place, the growers were taken by auto to visit Jos. Brooks, who grows carnations and miscellaneous stock. Next on the route was the establishment of Wm.

After hav- ing seen this place the joyful news was passed that Poehlmann Bros. Co. had a chicken dinner waiting. Needless to say, the dinner was enjoyed by all and, using the expression of one grower, "it hit the spot." Business Session. Following the dinner the monthly meeting was held, at which many im- portant and timely topics were discussed. Facts and figures were presented show- ing the enormous increase in the cost of everything entering into the production of flowers and the difficulty of growers to keep pace with them. As a result of these advances, flowers will be higher. The growers are enthusiastic about their signboard campaign, which should prove to be a great stimulant to busi- ness. The organization of Commercial Flower Growers of Chicago stands for the advancement of floriculture and it aims to elevate the flower business in general, and deserves the sujjport of every flower grower tributary to the Chicago market. Its membership con- sists of one representative from each greenhouse establishment. Although only 6 months old, the association has made rapid progress and already its membership numbers seventy-six, com- prising about 6,000,000 square feet of glass. The Members.

"Charm with distinction" is the phrase used to express the floral art that originates at the hou.ie of Strand's Flowers, a new store which announced its opening in Detroit last week. Oscar Strand is president of the company. The store is softlv finished in grav and green, with furnishings to harmonize. A tree made of magnolia leaves deco- rates one wall in addition to mirrors. In the spacious windows Mr, Strand will display only single specimens of floral art, baskets, table decorations and corsages. Seeds and landscape garden- ing will be departments in the new store, which is in the new Book building, on Washington boulevard. • • • • Albert Winkler, of J.

Scatter the bait thinly over the soil in the early part of the day somewhat in the same manner as grass is sown. M. P. CATERPILLARS ON MUMS. I am sending two chrysantliemum leaves, which have worms beneath them destroying the leaves fast. Is it the gall-fly? How can I get rid of it? I have tried Paris green. This pest is thick on my pompon mums. I am anx- ious to save the late mums if possible. C. J. H.— 111. The samples submitted showed, not gall-fly, but simply caterpillars. Gall- fly does not skeletonize the leaf as was done in this case, but simply punctures the leaf and lays its egg and then does not move until it hatches out. Paris TO COMBAT GRASSHOPPERS. I am having a great deal of trouble with grasshoppers eating my chrysan- themums. Can you give me a remedy? I have tried Paris green, but it burns the foliage. I have never had this trouble before. R. H. L. — Md. The most effective way of fighting this pest in a greenhouse is hand-pick- The Editor is pleased when a Reader presents his ideas on any subject treated in As experience is the best teacher, so do we learn fastest by an exchange of experiences. Many valuable points are brought out by discussion. Good penmanship, spelling and Krammur, though desirable, are not necessary. Write as you would talk when doing your best. WE SHALL BE GLAD TO HEAR FROM YOU iug. Go over the plants early in the morning before the grasshoppers be- come lively. By attending to this regu- larly for a week or ten days, picking off the pests and destroying them, you will soon be rid of them. The grass- hoppers come into the greenhouses from the outside, and the best hiding place for them is tall weeds or grass around the greenhouses. A good plan is to keep these cut short and the surround- ings of the houses clean. The Department of Agriculture gives the so-called Kansas bait as a means of getting rid of grasshoppers. This bait is composed of twenty pounds of bran, one pound of Paris green, two quarts of cheap syrup, two oranges or lemons and three and one-half gallons of water. The bran and Paris green are mixed dry. When one is doing this he should have a cloth over his mouth to prevent his inhaling the poison. The fruit, syrup and water should be mixed to- gether, the fruit cut up in small pieces. The whole should then be mixed to form a mealy mash. This quantity of bait is sufficient to treat five acres of land. BUDS TAKEN TOO EARLY. I am having trouble with my Wm. Turner mums, white and yellow alike. Last year I had the same trouble, but this year it is much worse. 1 grow about thirty-five varieties and they are all planted about June 1, in the same soil, fresh each year of course, and treated with cow manure only. This soil has given us good mums, with no trouble whatever. The Turners are the only ones that have given us trouble so far. After they were planted a few weeks I gave them a top-dressing of well decayed cow manure, only to keep the sun from baking my soil hard and drying it out too fast, as it is quite sandy. They grew well until this stage, when the stems seemed to break or crack about one inch from the bottom of the bud. Some crack or break in two or three places. In some instances the buds curl over and break directly off. Some curl over and seem to heal there and the flower opens and is disfigured to such an extent that it cannot be sold as a cut flower. These cracks are ex- actly as if one had cut it with a sharp knife, all of them being a horizontal break. All that crack seem to swell below the break. It seems as though the nutriment is held back from the bud. As I have found that a good water- ing and then a slight drying out caused my mums to grow quite well, I treated all alike. The fact that this year and last were quite dry years in our section may ac- count for such action of these mums. I might add that they may have en- dured a too dry atmosphere. Would that have had anv effect? H. J. F.— Mont. The specimen plant arrived in good condition and I think the principal cause of the trouble is that for your siection of the country, with its dry atmosphere, you are taking the buds on Wm. Turner too early. The bud on the plant re- ceived is an early crown, well advanced in color at this date, October 4. Should we take the buds of Wm. Turner or Yellow Turner before August 30, we should have a great deal of the same trouble as you are having. The foliage also shows signs of the plants having been liberally fed, which is also a cause of the necks cracking. If you will examine the rest of your Wm. Turner plants you will notice that the upper part of the stem of the plant has swollen to a much greater circum- ference than below. This shows that 24 The Florists- Rcvkw October 23, 1010. after the bud was taken the plant has been drawing ^up more nourishment than it could safely assimilate; conse- quently the stem had to give way at its weakest point. Another year try tak- ing the buds on the Turners the first week in September a&d treat less liber* ally, with manure. : " ,'. . - . M. P. C'^IK THRIPS IN SOIL. On some carnations which I benched in August I put a mulch of well rotted horse manure about four weeks ago. This mulch is infested with thrips. The buds and flowers show the effect of thrips. We have sprayed with Ham- mond's Thrip Juice, but this will not get the ones in the manure. Can you tell me of something I can use to kill them in the soil without injury to the carnations t H. H. — O. If you will eontinue spraying your carnations with a solution of tobacco extract, it should rid them of the thrips in time. It might be well to apply it twice each week instead of once. If you can get tobacco dust handily, you might sprinkle it on the manure and destroy many of the pests. Soot is also said to be excellent, used in the same manner. As soon as cool weather sets in you will have little difficulty in keep- ing thrips in check. A. F. J. B. NOT BUST BUT LEAF-SPOT. i am sending a few leaves from my carnations, which are badly affected with rust. The plants had a few dried leaves when planted in and since then the rust has spread. We are picking off all the dried sections and spots. Will any preparation, such as Zenke's liquid fungicide, be effective t H. M. A.— Pa. The specimens submitted do not show any trace of carnation rust, but there are a number of spots of the common leaf-spot disease. Zenke 's fungicide will probably destroy the spores of this fungus if applied according to direc- tions. You are doing right in picking off the affected leaves. Bordeaux mix- ture is a splendid remedy for this kind of disease. Carnation rust breaks out in raised pustules, which release a brown powdery substance, and is quite distinct from the disease that is troub- ling your carnations now. A. F. J. B. STEM-EOT AGAIN. We are sending you two carnation plants. Please tell ua what is affecting them and what we should do to stop it. N, F. C— O. The carnation plants are affected with stem-rot. This is the worst disease that carnation growers have to contend with and, unfortunately, after the plants be- come affected, it is useless to try to save them. There are several reasons that contribute to the cause of the trouble. The plants under considera- tion clearly show that they were planted too late and set too deeply in the soil; these are two of the principal causes of stem-rot. They show also signs of having been neglected as. regards pinch- ing back or topping their growths while they were in ^he field. This disease is a fungus and, while a plant cannot be saved after it has once become affected, yet the disease can be checked by clean cultural methods. I should advise W. F. C. first to clean all decayed leaves frqm the plants, then to go over the beds and press the soil down evenly so that each plant shows a clear stem above the soil. This is a par- ticularly important point because, when the plants are planted deep enough to cover the main stem up to the branches, they are sure to become affected with stem-rot. After the beds have been gone over, I should advise greater care in the watering of the plants so as to get the soil in the same condition clear through, because, when the bed is drier underneath than it is at the surface, thus forming a wet collar aroui^d the stem of the plant, stem-rot will quickly appear. After the soil has been put in such a condition that it will take water freely and dry out evenly, then judg- ment should be exercised so that the beds do not dry out or become extreme- ly wet, but stay in a moderate condi- tion at all times. After this date, do not syringe the plants, but apply the water to the soil only. To keep the red spider and other in- sects in check, ventilate freely and at- tend regularly to the fumigating with the nicotine extract. After a plant Af- fected with stem-rot has been taken out of the bench, it is a good plan to shake a little dry lime and sulphur over the surface of the soil where it has been standing; this v^dll help to check the fungus from spreading to the surround- ing plants. Be particular to see that all rubbish is removed from the walks or underneath the ■ benches and guard against a close, stuffy condition in the houses. M. P. 3I5S3HSHSBSIK MOTT-LY MUSINGS 33 The Van Aart Flower Shop, Paducah, Ky., makes an attractive showing in its new store. A striking window, backed with a handsome icebox, is a big draw- ing card and, since it is the only one of its kind in town, the resulting busi- ness is satisfactory. • • • • C. P.

T. D., " has created a large telegraph trade. Adolphus Gude, of Gude Bros. Co., Anacostia, D. C, predicts one of the big- gest seasons known, although the ab- sence of frost is responsible for an abun- dance of outdoor flowers, which natur- ally affect indoor-grown stock. There will not be a shortage such as prevailed at this time last year. Prices will be more normal. • • • • A comment on the renewing of the approach to the Baum Flower Store, Knoxville, Tenn., elicited the remark from Charles L. Baum that "it was but two years since the pavement was laid and this was proof that they were getting their share of patronage from Knoxville 's increasing population," which is guided by conspicuous and at- tractive signs ' ' Baum-ward. ' ' The storp was aglow with Helianthus Shower of Gold, which is furnished from the new farm of sixty-four acres, where dahlias, gladioli and similar stock flourish. The 185 varieties of gladioli make a grand showing. Stock is in fine condition at the greenhouses. Russell, Columbia, Premier and Kaiserin Augusta Victoria roses are in the lead. Chrysanthemums are also prominent and among carna- tions one sees Matchless, Mrs. C. W. Ward and members of the Enchantress family. Sam Roy Baum supervises this branch, while Floyd Baum takes pride in a house of cattleyas. Attention was called to the method of pricing roses and carnations, each vase bearing a disk tag on a long wire stem. Karl Baum says they have found the plan most admirable. It saves much talk and inquirers see that all are served alike. While en route to the farm, Chas. L. Baum was reminiscent, recalling the time when he was an iron molder and his OCTOBEB 23, 1919. The Fibriists^ Review 25 wife grew pansies in a wooden frame, how the modest frame developed into iron houses and how together they molded the business into its present prosperous shape. On this latest add!- don of land will eventually be erected a range of greenhouses. • • • • "The city directory lists thirty-four florists and two nurserymen — all flourishing, we believe," observed George E. Schulz, of the Jacob Schulz Co., Louisville, Ky., * * basing the opinion upon our own experience. I may cite an instance that happened in our landscape department recently. Before the war, we had a contract made with a customer for a job that figured about $5,000, A few days ago our architect called to see if there was anything doing and was agreeably surprised to land a new con- tract calling for an expenditure of $25,- 000. This shows the direction of the wind, doesn't it?" The permanent mili- tary camp will be a big factor in the future of the flower business here. Mr. Schulz was much interested in the F. T. D. convention at Buffalo, A choice assort- ment of dahlias was noted, especially the crimson scarlet decorative dahlia, Mina Burgle. It's a taker. Fine Pre- mier and Kaiserin Augusta Victoria roses from August Easmussen, of New Albany, Ind., were also noted. Blackman Sons Floral Co., Evansville, Ind., was working upon several fine floral pieces for the funeral of a de- ceased jockey. Comment was made upon the absence of freak designs; the pop- ular wreath transcends all others. Choice, richly colored Mrs. Bussell roses with 24-inch stems, from plants planted in February, were noted, also Kaiserin, which is good until Christmas. A white sport from Mrs. Eussell is here, which, if it continues, will be an acquisition, "for," as George Blackman observed, "a good white rose is a desideratum, though there is nothing lacking in well- grown Double White Killamey." W. M. NEW YOEK. WHO'S WHO Kl- AND WHY The Iklarket. Last week brought little or no change in the cut flower market, although the buying was perhaps a little more active because of a feeling that stock might not be available twenty-four hours ahead of requirements on account of the strike of employees in the express service; while the strike still continues, it does not appear to have curtailed ar- rivals much, the general supply of flowers of all kinds being large. The killing frost usually experienced about October 12 to 15 has not yet material- ized, consequently immense quantities of dahlias and other- outdoor flowers are still in evidence, the shipping of which is unhampered by express troubles. Any day now may see the end of this supply and stock grown un- der glass will then, naturally, strength- en in value. With more congenial temperatures, the quality of roses is much better and sales are stimulated in consequence. American Beauty is plentiful, but prices of the better grades are firmer, with specials at times running above top quotations. Hybrid teas are in good supply and their movement is fair in the long-stemmed grades; short stock is oyerplentiful and clearances are at times rather difiicult, owing, perhaps, to the rather small demand for stock THE GADDER.

" For Bobby Shoch has more friends than he can count, for every- one who knows him is his friend and he knows nearly every florist from the Atlantic to Oklahoma. "Quit yer joshin!" Was it fancy, or is he really say- ing it? Well, here goes: Kobert Quigley Shoch was born in Philadelphia, February 17, 1881. He was for teja years with jQlius Koehler & Son, for two years with W. E.

Phil. for funeral work. The varieties Premier, Columbia, Hadley and Ophelia are providing excellent stock and are in better demand than others. The supply of carnations is increas- ing, but the demand for them is not particularly active. Selected stock of the Mrs. C. W. Ward variety brings $4 per hundred, but the general range is $1 to $3 per hundred. The quality of arrivals is fair for the season. A few Easter lilies are coming in and command as much as 30 cents per bud and flower. They are not really a com- modity, however, and the price is due mainly to scarcity. Lily of the valley is short in supply, with a price range of 20 cents to 30 cents per spray for acceptable grades. Rubrum lilies are still in good supply at $3 to $6 per hun- dred, according to color and quality. Orchids are in fair supply. Cattleyas are moving a little better, at prices about the same as last week; much of the stock arriving is specked, which throws many otherwise fine flowers into the low gradings. The supply of chrysanthemums is in- creasing, but is not so heavy as might be expected. Mid-season varieties are putting in an appearance, notably Ap- pleton, but the choice is not wide. The Lillian Doty pompon is prominent and a few varieties among the singles are to be seen. Violets are arriving in larger quanti- ties, but are not much of a factor in the general demand. A few sweet peas are to be had, but the quality is not of the tempting kind. 26 The Florists^ Review OcTOBEit 23, 1919.

The strike of employees of the Ameri- can Railway Express Co., which began October 13^ is still unbroken and ship- ments of flowers by express are greatly hampered. The strike of the long- shoremen, which has tied up New York harbor for some time, shows no sign of settlement, although military aid has been called for. It is understood that some heavy shipments of Dutch bulbs are held up on board of three steamers in port. J. H. P. The fall exhibition of the Horticul- tural Society of New York will be held October 30 to November 2 at the Amer- ican Museum of Natural History. All, whether members of the society or not, are invited to make exhibits. Sched- ules can be had by addressing the secre- tary, George V. NasH, New York Botan- ical Garden, Bronx park. New York. Exhibitors are urged to make entries early, so that adequate arrangements may be made for the proper presenta- tion of the exhibits. TORONTO, ONT. The Market. Business is generally good. Last summer was an exceptionally good one for the florist and this fall businessfivas been maintained, though at timesit has been difficult to secure sufficient'V^ock. This was especially true after the gar- den flowers were no longer available. Now the roses and mums are becoming more plentiful and pompons are making their appearance. The repainting and redecorating of so many of the flower stores in anticipa- tion of the fall trade indicates the ex- pectation of large business. Design work is in demand and the bouquet trade is also good. Various Notes. The Dale Estate, at Brampton, has just completed 1,500 lineal feet of glass, fifty-one feet wide. In addition, they have purchased the fifteen greenhouses of William Fendley, at Brampton, cov- ering two and a half acres, together with forty acres of ground adjacent to the greenhouses. Arrang?ments are nearing completion for the big exhibition to open November 20. The florists have been examining the buildings and laying plans for their share in the mammoth exhibition. The last one under the Ontario Horticultural Association was canceled owing to the war. Now it is to be resumed on a greater scale than ever. There will be thousands of dollars donated in prizes and thousands of classifications and en- tries. Toronto dealers have been troubled lately with street peddlers selling flow- ers in front of their stores on Saturday night. They have been driven off Yonge street, but now seek the streets farther out and manage to undersell the legitimate florists, who have taxes to pay and considerable upkeep. The growers arc ])lamod for making this condition possible. Fourteen Toronto representatives were at the F. T. D. convention in Buf- falo and returned enthusiastic for this organization. They are looking for- ward to entertaining the F. T. D. in Toronto in 1921. With two Canadian florists on the board of directors, they naturally feel that they are being treated right and will show their ap- preciation in a tangible way, if the convention comes to Toronto two years hence. Charles Cross, son of Melville Cross, died in Orangeville, October 16. An important meeting of the Toronto Retail Florists' Club will be held Octo- ber 27. This will be a combined busi- ness and social meeting. Fall advertis- ing plans, the Horticultural Exhibition floral displays and other matters will bi dealt with at this meeting. Arraugr- ments will also be made for the "Say It with Flowers" parade. A meeting of the executive commii- tee of the Canadian Retail Florists' Association will be called by the presi- dent at an early date to deal with oi- ganized work. Recent visitors to Toronto were: Frank McKenna, Montreal; Mr. Mc- Kenna, Quebec; Charles Scrim, Ottawa; S. W. Coggan, Battle Creek, and Eail Mann, Richmond, Ind. The Ontario Agricultural College, at Guelph, will hold three free 2-week classes in fruit, vegetable and flower growing, beginning January 26, Febru- ary 9 and February 23, respectivelv. J. J. H. BUFFALO, N. Y. The Market. The week-end found much improve ment in market conditions. Stock of all kinds has been moving with a pace bordering on liveliness and at steady prices. Carnations, under moderate sup- ply, have advanced to $5 per hundred. Most of the stock can hardly be classed better than seconds. Chrysanthemums, which are now the principal flowers of the market, are holding steady at a price which is quite profitable to the growers. Roses have fallen off in sup- ply to the extent of a shortage in some varieties. Sunburst of the better grades is in good supply; so are special Beauties, while White Killarney, which is the only white this market has, is, as usual, short of the demand. The week- end brought frosts which killed all out- door stock. Results of the F. T. D. Convention. What the church does to bring the human soul nearer to the ultimate goal, that did the F. T. D. convention for the florists' business here. In the minds where conventions had no part — and in some there was even an idea that they were a loss of time and money — there is now the firm belief that such gatherings are the essence of trade progress and prosperity. It is in such conventions that ideas are exchanged and that something which one wanted is given a name and a place under the sun. Everyone here who attended agrees that it was a wonderful occasion, and, asked what he means, says that he has learned much about two phases of the business, how to advertise and hoji" to decorate a window effectively, whicii is, in a way, to make even a child under- stand what you want him to know. Here are a couple of lines from a modern book: "The first and most practical step in getting what one wants in this world is wanting it. One would think that the next step would be expressing what one wants. But it almost never is. It generally consists in wanting it still harder and still harder until one can express it." Various Notes. J. T. Salach has opened a store at 118.3 Genesee street. The store is a corner one, with suitable windows for effective decorating. Joseph Kolodziejizat, who has been doing landscape work for some time, will return to Holland to straighten up property affairs. OCTOBKR 23, 1919. The Florists' Review 27 John E. Gittere, who spent some time with the First Division in Germany, is back and at his old job with Charles Sandiford. F. P. A. When business is slack with H. Keitsch & Son Co., 810 Main street — and sometimes when it isn't — Mr. Keitsch will be found across the street, in the office of the Freehold Loan & Savings Association. Another florist- banker. Now that the army has released his brother for duty at the greenhouses at Attica, Edward C. Stroh is in charge of the store here, two sisters helping him. Glistening copper wires strung between two poles supported huge white letters, "F. T. D, " in the window. Wm. H. Grover is strongly for win- dow display. In addition to two in his own shop, he keeps decorated two across the street and another in the same block, employing to his advantage what other concerns do not wish to use. For the F. T. D. contest he constructed a white map on a moss background. On either side, also in' white on moss, were the phrases, "Florists' Telegraph De- livery, "Say It with Flowers" and "Send Flowers by Wire." In illus- tration of the last, a wire ran continu- ously through the window, carrying blooms tied to it; the wheels on which it ran were behind the scene. The return of W. J. Palmer is ex- pected this we?k from his Canadian summer homo, where ho has been for the last two months. BOSTON. The Market. The increasing supply of chrysanthe- mums and the improved quality in roses and carnations are the features of the market at present. Weather continues unsettled. One or two clear days bring a succession of rainy ones and tempera- ture fluctuations were never more ex- treme. In spite of these apparent drawbacks, retail demand holds up ex- tremely well and sales are sufficient to keep the market nicely cleaned up. Roses continue to improve in quality and prices remain about the same as in the previous week. Of the newer roses. Pilgrim and Crusader seem likely to become quite popular market varieties. Each has the earmarks of good com mercial sorts. Carnations are of better size and color. Prices vary from $.'? to $5; only select blooms reach the higher price. Single violets are coming in a little more abundantly and are of fine color. Growers are just starting to house their plants. Chrysanthemums, such as Halliday, Pacific Supreme, Oconto and Tnaka, are arriving in much larger quantities, but so far the demand has been equal to the supply and prices hold in) well. Sncri pompons as arrive, if of the true pom pon tyj)e, sell easily. A few lots only of sweet peas come in and those are of the old grandiflora type. Lilies of all kinds are almost out of the market. Bouvardia arrives in small lots and sells well. Some small gladioli still come in, but this week will see the last of them. A few greenhouse asters also are seen, but sell indifferently now that mums are abundant. Calendulas of good quality sell well, much better than bachelor's buttons. Small lots of snapdragons and cosmos are arriving. The cattleya market is easier, with abundant arrivals of C. labiata. There are small supplies of Odontoglossum grande, cypripediums and oncidiums. Asparagus moved better last week. In pot plants, chrysanthemums, largely of the Caprice type, are fine; so are cyclamens. Rex begonias in pans are extremely well grown and sell readily. Boston's Newest Flower Store. To the list of commodious, well equipped and in every respect up-to- date flower stores is now added that of Hamlin the Florist, located in the Little building, Boston's largest and most sumptuous business edifice, on busy Boylston street near Tremont, right in the heart of the theater and hotel dis- tricts, with two tunnel stations a few stops distant. H. S. Rogers, formerly with Penn's and Hoffman's, used the name Hamlin, as there are already at least three other Rogers firms in the trade in Boston and a larger number would surely have caused more mix-ups. The new store has two splendid win- dows on Boylston street and has a depth of fifty feet. Noteworthy features are the splen- didly built flower chests cooled by the Isko svstem of refrigeration without ice. The machinery in the basement is easy of operation and a thermostat gives perfect regulation. The dry air in the flower chests makes the flowers keep splendidly — much better than un- der the older systems, which eive at- mospheres heavily charged with mois- ture. Sulphur dioxide is the refriger- ant used. This is a harmless gas, liquify- ing at low pressure. This is the first Isko installation in any flower store in New England and its success will un- doubtedly cause more firms to adopt it. Noticeable on the walls of this store are some superb paintings, loaned for the opening. These include two of Watson's cattle masterpieces from Scot- land, valued at $20,000 each. Vaxious Notes. The nominating committee of the Massachusetts Horticultural Society an- nounces the following list of nomina- tions for the various offices of the so- ciety for the year 1920: President, W. C. Endicott; vice-president, Charles S. Sargent; trustees for three years, Al- bert C. Burrage, Ernest B. Dane, Edwin S. Webster, Fred A. Wilson; trustee for two years, Arthur A. Fewkes; nominat- ing committee. Oakos Ames. William Anderson, J. K. M. L. Farquhar, S. J. Goddard, John E. Thayer. The annual meeting of the society and the election will occur November 1.5 at 12 o'clock. The two new roses, Pilgrim and Cru- sader, coming from the Montgomery Co., Hadley, Mass.. are proving popular here. Specially fine flowers of these and Hadley. Russell and Ophelia are be- ing received bv the Boston Rose Co. The Boston Florists' Bowling League, which was inactive during the war, is planning to start operations again with teams from Penn's, Galvin's, Carbone's, Robinson's and the two wholesale flow- er markets. A. J. Dowd is president, Seymour Grose, treasurer, and George Hnnipr. publicity agent. The Fottler, Fiske. Rawson Co. has at- tractive windows of Dutch bulbs, vases of berried shrubs and dishes of hand- some New England apples. A. A. Pembroke, of North Beverly, now operates a large, up-to-date retail store in Salem, with four greenhouses attached to it. His leading carnations this season are Matchless, Pink Delight, Benora, Good Cheer and Rosette. He has one house of roses, the varieties be- ing Columbia, Ophelia and Double White Killarney. Alexander J. Montgomery, son of the late Robert Montgomery, of Natick, is getting a fine cut of Columbia, Ophelia, Hadlev, Killarney Brilliant, Russell and White Killarney. His carnations also look remarkably well. William H. Elliott is our largest local grower of mums in pots and he does these splendidly, the plants all being low, bushy, abundantly flowered and entirely without supports of any kind. At present the Caprice or "Cap" fam- ily in several colors is most in evidence. Wheeler & Co., the Waban orchid specialists, have about 2,000 blooms open on their Cattleya labiata, which make a fine show. They specialize in phala^nopsis and have a nice crop of spikes on those coming along. They had a fine house specially built for gar- denias and stocked with splendid plants a year ago, but they had to close it u^i owing to the fuel shortage and have not attempted their culture again. William H. Carr and Charles Evans are receiving fine shipments of such mums as Pacific Supreme, Unaka, Ocon- to and Halliday. Unaka does not prove particularly popular here, as it shows the center too much and its shade of pink is not pleasing, but for some rea- son it is heavily grown. Single violet specialists here are just starting to house their stock. They have been afraid to do so "arlier, as warm waves have been coming along weekly and, after housing, this means a rush of foliage and a serious curtail- ment of blooms for the season. The uncertainties attending single violet culture have caused some of our lead- ing specialists to largely reduce their plantings. McAlpine Bros., of Exeter. N. H., are shipping in a fine lot of their now deep ])ink rose Exeter, which meets with a good demand. They are strong just now on Columbia, Double White Killar- nev and Ophelia. Neil E. Boyle will cut down his plant- ings of giganteum lilies to 'i,00(\ this season, owing to the high cost of bulbs. His sport of Stanley rose continues to be a great producer. Other good roses that h" has are Ophelia and Double White Killarney. The Dolansky-McDonald Co. is re- ceiving a fine lot of Cattlova labiata, Odontoglossum grande and oncidiums in addition to its regular line of roses, mums, carnations and other flowers. Jeremiah F. Shea has o]iened a new flower store on Center street, Jamaica Plain, a few doors from the Jamaica Floral Co. The Hillcrest Farm special prizes of- fered at the exhibition of fruits and vegetables for the winners of most points in the show were awarded to: E. L. Lewis, Taunton, first, $50; W. N. Craig, Brookline. second, $30; W. H. Golby. Jamaica Plain, third, $20. There was keen competition for these prizes. At Horticultural hall October 18, Douglas Ecclestone, gardener to A. C. Burrage, Beverly Farms, received a gold medal for the beautiful Brasso- La^lia-Cattleya The Baroness, a cross between Laeliocattleya Ophir and Bras- so-Cattleya Lehmani. The sepals and petals are canary yellow and the lip yellow, with a deep mauve base. Cat- 28 The Florists^ Review OCTOBIB 23, 1919. tleya Moira alba, from the same exhibi- tor, received a silver medal. W. N. 0. CUIVELAND, O. The Market. Business last week was good, but not rushing. Counter trade has increased considerably. Chrysanthemums are ar- riving more freely and clean up well; some fine Chrysolora are available, as well as many of the smaller kinds. Car- nations have been cleaning up well at $3 and $4 per hundred. Dahlias are still abundant and sell easily, although the quality is getting poorer. Boses are finding a fair demand, mostly for the first and select grades. American Beauties were scarce last week, with the demand chiefly for the long and short grades. White roses are still scarce, with not enough to meet the de- mand at times. Small white flowers are in demand, also snapdragon. Out- door stock cleaned up readily, includ- ing some fine marigold, zinnia, bach- elor's buttons, gypsophila and calen- dula. Single violets sold well, but double violets dragged considerably. The supply of greens is good, adiantum having the best demand. Various Notes. C. A. Bramley has bought a 2-story block on Superior street near East Eighty-fourth. If the threatened railway express strike should take effect Monday, it would shorten up stock in this market considerably, as most of the roses are shipped in and come from too far out to be hauled by automobile in most cases. However, the Cleveland Cut Flower Co. has made arrangements to have its flowers hauled by machine from its range in Newton Falls, O., about fifty- five miles from this city. The Park Flower Shop had the dec- oration at the Cleveland hotel for the banquet to Cardinal Mercier. The na- tional colors of Belgium were displayed. About 125 yellow baskets were used on the tables, made up of red dahlias and a black tie. W. F. B. Al Barber made a flying trip to Phil- adelphia last week, returning Octo- ber 17. ^ F. C. W. Brown, manager of the re- tail store of the J. M. Gasser Co., stopped off at Buffalo for the F. T. D. convention long enough to order twenty billboards for Cleveland and then hur- ried on to bring home game which he had shot in New Brunswick. Fancy pottery of many kinds occupies conspicuous tables in the store of West- man & Getz. The settling down at home in autumn brings a demand for such wares. The block letters that blink alter- nately red and green over the Square bring the name of the Park Flower Shop to the eyes of the many waiting for street cars. Potted ferns are finding heavy demand just now, reports James McLaughlin, manager of the wholesale store of the J. M. Gasser Co. There is much satis- faction now in the fact that last winter and spring the big greenhouse range of the company was kept at full production. Vases and pottery as a side line make flower sales to customers who want to give something more lasting in addi- tion and who if they sought the latter somewhere else might forego or forget the flowers, thinks Charles Russell, of the Jones-Russell Co. The basement salesroom has a large stock for that reason. For the visit of Cardinal Mercier the window of C. M. Wagner, at 1327 Eu- clid avenue, was decorated in the Bel- gian colors, dahlias lending themselves remarkably well to the effect. At the top of the display a white dove of peace perched over an American flag. * * We 've got to make the trade attrac- tive to young fellows if the business is to keep on growing," said Manager F. R. Williams, of the Cleveland Cut Flower Co. "I know it. I have a son, but he has no desire whatever to be a florist, and I can 't blame him. ' ' A steady increase over last year's business, without its funereal reason for greater size, is regarded with satisfac- tion by the Cleveland Plant & Flower Co. Labor and materials have so increased the cost of artiflcial flowers, according to the Joseph M. Stern Co., that what were formerly high figures are too low for even bargain prices now. BALTIMORE. The Market. The market last week was somewhat congested. The chief reason for this was oversupply; the demand was about normal, but a few cool nights created the impression that a killing frost was due and everything in bloom outdoors was cut and thrown on the market at once. This was especially true of dahlias. While the trend of the mar- ket was for strictly first-class stock, this deluge naturally made it look in the wholesale houses as though the market had suffered a decided slump. Roses, while not in full supply as yet, about equal the demand. Those coming to the market are of fair quality. The end of the dahlia season and the whole of the mum season is a good time to be a bit short on roses, for with flowers, as with good things to eat, the public seems to like things that are in season. Chrysanthemums, while not any too plentiful, are of fine quality, are to be had in all sizes and so far they sell up well. Carnations are coming, but are not in big supply. The quality is better than previous years at this time in the season. This is a good time to buy 6-inch and 8-inch ferns, since there seems to be a • big supply of really first-class stock, which the growers are anxious to move, and some bargains are to be had. Some- one must have created the impression that this was to be a fern year, for last winter small stock was not to be had. Club Meeting. The regular meeting of the Florists' Club was held October 13. The officers nominated at the preceding meeting were duly elei on his own business all the time." A VOICE FROM JERSEY. Many growers in the extreme east miss the chance to get quick clearance of their surplus stock by failing to of- fer it in the Classified ads in The Re- view. They forget that it is not where a paper is printed, but where it is read, that counts. Like this: The results of my advertlalriK In The Review were very satlsfartory, digptwing of all the plants I had to offer. — Robert W. Yeo, North Borifon, N. J., October 18, 1919. If you hear a man complain of the cost of advertising you can be pretty certain he spends a good bit of money elsewhere than in The Review. October 23, 1919. The Florists^ Review 31 OBITUARY Andrew Geary. The death of Andrew Geary, one of ;he inspectors for the horticultural (ommission of Los Angeles, removes one ,:f the pioneers in horticulture in that leighborhood. Mr. Geary was in his isual health on the day before his death, but an attack of acute indiges- tion resulted fatally October 15. Mr. Geary moved to Los Angeles in the early days and his father oper- ated a small nursery. In later years Mr. Geary was also in the nursery busi- ness, but had filled his position as hor- ticultural inspector for the last fifteen years. Mr. Geary was married twice, and his first wife had what was prob- ably the first flower store ever opened in Los Angeles. It was run in connec- tion with a confectionery store on Spring street and antedated Mr. Schneider's Main street store. At that time there were few if any growers of cut flowers and those sold consisted mostly of violets, roses and chrysanthe- mums grown on private grounds. Thus it will be seen that Mr. Geary would have had far better reasons to call him- self the dean of horticulture or the l)ioneer horticulturist than many self- styled deans and pioneers. But this was not his way. A quiet, well-in- formed, most likable man, he would often speak of the old days, but with none of the bombast so characteristic of some present-day types. Mr. Geary in his official capacity had the power to turn down shipments or make it inconvenient for nurserymen to do business, but it says much for his tact and diplomacy that he had no enemies and everybody in the trade had a good word for him. The somewhat hackneyed term, nature's gentleman, fitted this fine, hearty and vigorous man and the sympathy of everyone who knew him goes out to his devoted wife, son and daughters, who mourn his loss. Besides Mrs. Lillie E. Geary, his widow, he is survived by Andrew T. Geary, his son, and two daughters, Mrs. Geo. F. Barton and Mrs. Eugene P. Franquinet. Mr. Geary, though over 60 years of age, was active in his duties right up to the last. For years he had driven around the city and its environs in his car, often accompanied by Mrs. Geary, in the course of his business, and not one in the trade but was glad to see him at all times. He will be sadly missed. The funeral was held at South Flower street October 17 and both the number of the trade present and the amount of Horal tributes sent testified to the es- teem in which he was held. H. K. R. Martin Erb. Martin Erb, of Troy Hill road, Trov Hill, Pittsburgh, died October 16 in St. John's hospital as the result of injuries received, the evening before, when he was struck by an automobile on Mount Troy road while on his way to church. Mr. Erb, who was 60 years of age, was born in Hessen, Germany, and emigrated to this country thirty-seven years ago, settling in Pittsburgh. He was a mem- ber of St. George Ritters Branch 43, Hessen Beneficial Society and St. Aloysius' Roman Catholic church. He is survived by his widow, Mrs. Rosalia Erb; three sons, Lawrence, Joseph and Frank Erb, all of Pittsburgh; four daughters, Mrs. George Pfeifer, Mrs. Otto Kablack, Miss Rose and Miss Magdalena Erb; a brother, Lawrence Erb; a sister, Mrs. George Wach, and fourteen grandchildren. E. E. S. George Taylor. George Taylor, one of the oldest land- scape gardeners at Newport, R. I., died October 4 at his cottage on the H. Mor- timer Brooks estate, of which he had been in charge for the last two months. He was 71 years of age and had been ill about three months. He was in a large measure responsible for some of the beautiful landscape ef- fects in the cottage colony during his fifty-five years in Newport, and was for a long time head gardener for the late John H. Glover. He was born in Ash- ton, England, in 1848 and came to this country about 1864 and took up his home in Newport. He was a mem- ber of Emmanuel (Episcopal) church of Newport for many years. He was one of the oldest members of Cor- onet Council, Order of the Royal Ar- canum, and of the Newport Horticul- tural Society and the Newport Garden Club. He is survived by Mrs. Taylor and four sons. The funeral services were held Tuesday afternoon, October 7, in the Belmont Memorial Chapel. W. H. M. Frank O. Franzen. Frank O. Franzon, formerly a florist at 5319 North Clark street, Chicago, died October 17, at the Swedish Cove- nant hospital, of chronic empyema. He had been operated on October 4. Mr. Franzen was born in Sweden, January 9, 1884, the son of Jonas and Ida Franzen. He came to America in youth and located at Gary, Ind. Re- moving to Chicago in 1910, he opened a retail flower store on Summerdale avenue, near Clark street. He made rapid progress and soon built a new store and greenhouses in the same neighborhood. Failing health brought on business reverses and he went to California in the hope of recuperation, but his ailment proved chronic, and he returned to the family home at 3323 North Halsted street a few months ago. He leaves a widow, Anna. The funeral services were held Oc- tober 21, at Hultin chapel, 3176 North Clark street, interment being in Me- morial Park cemetery. He was a Ma- son, an Odd Fellow and a Maccabee, each of these organizations, as well as the trade, being represented at the services. TOLEDO, O. The Market. A fair number of fashionable wed- dings and much funeral work are keep- ing everybody busy. Outdoor flowers are finished for this season. Chrysan- themums are arriving in good supply, though there is still a scarcity of pom- pons. Carnations are coming in more plentifully and are of good quality. Roses are plentiful, yet there seems to be a scarcity of good white roses. Various Notes. The sympathy of the trade is ex- tended to Jacob and Josie Helmer in the loss of their mother, who died re- cently. A number of beautiful floral offerings were sent by the trade. L. W. Hicks, for the last three years with Metz & Bateman, left recently with Mrs. Hicks for Los Angeles, Cal., where he intends to try his luck in the wholesale game. The writer visited Dayton, O., Octo- ber 13, and called on the trade. A visit to the range of Rolf Zetlitz Co. found the plant department in especially good shape; it is in the hands of Mr. Anderson, who has had great success in this line. Several of the men in the trade took in the F. T. D. convention at Buffalo and report a particularly good time. Recent visitors to this city are: Philip Breitmeyer, of John Breitmey- er's Sons, Detroit, and his wife and friends, touring through to Indian- apolis; Alexander A. Abramowitz, rep- resenting P. L. Carbone, Boston, Mass. Henry E. Klunder has gone to Cin- cinnati, where he has taken a position with Henry W. Sheppard. The royal visitors, the King and Queen of Belgium, received a number of beautiful bouquets on their short visit in Toledo, among which was a shower of orchids, valley and Kaiserin, arranged by Mrs. J. B. Freeman. At the regular meeting of the Retail Florists' Association October 7 the com- mittee on Sunday closing was not ready to make a report, so a special meeting was called for October 21 to enable the committee to make a full report. C. M. B. Wohler Bros, are sending in some ex- ceptionally fine Oconto mums, which are being handled through Otto Krueger's store on East Broadway. Shramm Bros, have renovated their establishment with a new coat of paint — and are to be complimented on their good example. F. A. Imoberstag has completed a new salesroom. William Phillips has disposed of his florists' supply department, the stock having been purchased by Otto Krue- ger, who has moved it to his wholesale department. O. P. K. CHICAGO. The Market. Business is booming, but prices are considerably below the high level of late October last year, so that unless one is able to handle considerably more stock than a year ago the day's total of sales shows a decrease. There are two views of this situation. The whole- salers and retailers as a class are fairly well satisfied. With lower prices and larger supplies of stock it is possible to push the business with a degree of sat- isfaction unattainable when things were on the famine basis. On the other hand, a good many growers complain that the prices now are not in harmony with the increased cost of production. Supply and demand are quite evenly balanced. There are large quantities of flowers in the market and there is a big daily demand. The market cleans up in good shape, but it is possible to fill nearly all orders. The principal difficulty is experienced with orders for iShort roses at low prices. The longer .the price the buyer is willing to pay, [Contlnaed on page 36.1 32 The Florists^ Review OCTOBBB 23, 1919. f Offer Special Values to MLING'S is headquarters for the most Opheha.

WE ARE CLOSED ALL DAY SUNDAY the longer the supply of roses is. A large part of the cut now comes in the medium and longer grades, so that the better roses really are better value at the price than the short roses are. There are various reports, some growers stating that their cuts are going down, while others are on the up grade, so that the present condition is likely to hold for a while. Beauties are not so plentiful as they have been, but are to be had if ordered in season; they are gelling well. The supply of chrysanthemums has increased to the point where it may be said that the season is in full swing. Anything the buyer wants in white and yellow is to be had. The demand still equals the supply and the market cleans up steadily. The prices are rather bet- ter than in previous years, but nothing like what the stock was bringing at this date last season. Pompons are abun- dant and selling briskly. The supply of carnations increases steadily and the quality improves. Prices are slightly easier, probably be- cause of the competition of the pom- pons. Moderate supplies of double violets are selling steadily. Singles are scarce. Cattleyas are more plentiful and prices are easier. Valley was unobtainable at the first part of this week and the supply is likely to be uncertain from now until new pips are forced. Bouvar- dia has come, as have sweet peas.

Inaugurating a new plan, the Com- mercial Flower Growers of Chicago, the producers' new organization, held its monthly meeting at Morton Grove, October 16, intending to visit other growing centers later. It was a cold, wet day, and an attendance of thirty was considered good. The greater part of the afternoon was devoted to a tour of the several ranges of the Poehlmann Bros. Co., which is operating its glass to 100 per cent of capacity this season and has all the stock in first-class shape. Visits also were paid to the neighboring estab- lishments of Joseph P. Brooks, William F. Fluegge and Emil Nelson. At 6 o'clock August Poehlmann in- vited the entire party to be guests at the Wayside Inn, a hostelry famous for its chicken dinners. Following dinner the business meet- ing was called to order by President OCTOBm 28, 1019.

Secretary Amling brought up the matter of the "Say It with Flowers" billboards and urged growers to buy them for erection on their property.

Mr, Poehlmann laid particular stress on the indications that the price of coal is going up. He made compari- sons of the prices of pre-war times, of last season and this season, showing how serious has been the effect on the growers' cost of production, and as- serted that the end is not yet in sight. He told the growers that we are at the beginning of a hard winter, referring to the supply of fuel, and that all the conditions make for continually rising costs of production which cannot be met except by producing good stock and marketing it through channeli which will result in good prices. Boxes and Otlier Matters. During the last few days the whole- sale florists have received notice, from the concerns which supply the wood shipping boxes used in such great num- bers in this market, that prices have again been advanced. The box makers have an association and, while their prices are not uniform, they usually all act together. The new prices represent another advance of about thirty per cent. Before the war a good many whole- salers absorbed P. & D. in their own costs. While prices of materials still were a good deal lower than they are now they were forced to pass the cost of the box along to the buyer of flow- ers, but they still stand the other costs themselves. Other things besides boxes have advanced and still advance, prices being higher than during the war. Note how: Pre-war Now Adr.

The wholesale florist can say the same; if a profit of three and one-half per cent is typical, it has no effect on the retail price of flowers. Sunday Closing. William Wienhoeber has taken up the matter of Sunday closing, with a view to retaining during the winter the bene- ■ fits the retailers have had from a weekly day of rest during summer. Ee- plying to his inquiry, the following re- tailers have stated they will not open on the Sabbath this season: Walter Adams, Bohannon Floral Co., Fleischman Floral Co., George Wien- hoeber, E. Wienhoeber Co. Both Mr. Wienhoeber and The He- view will be glad to hear from and record other retailers who do not open their stores on Sunday. Of course, the Sunday closing is not expected to apply to the weeks in which the special flower days come. Various Notes. John Poehlmann, of Poehlmann Bros. Co., was taken to Grant hospital, Oc- tober 16, and operated on for appendi- citis. The patient is getting along nicely and expects to be back on the job in about two weeks. A noticeable increase in the social demand was reported last week by the E. Wienhoeber Co. A brisk season is anticipated, with many more social af- fairs than for the last three years call- ing for flowers. In the immediate neighborhood of the store eleven fami- lies already have announced for their daughters' coming-out parties during November. Announcement is made of the ap- Sroaching marriage «£ Miss Marguerite [ane McNulty, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Daniel H. McNulty, of Rogers Park, to Clarence Ellsworth, which will take place October 29 at the home of the bride's pare^its. Miss McNulty has been one of Peter Reinberg's chief re- liances in the management of his large business and she has made many warm friends in the trade who will be pleased to know she is to become a florist's wife. Emil Buettner says his coal this sea- son has cost him $6.50 per ton in the shed, as against $4 in ante-bellum days. The increase in labor is a still higher percentage and Mr. Buettner says the present price of roses is not in line. All the bulb dealers are rushed to the limit.

He says he still works 365 days and a good many cold nights every year and he thinks The Review didn't know what it was talking about when it said recently that nobody had lost anything through Sunday closing by wholesalers and re- tailers. Eric Johnson thinks the rose market will be well supplied during the next few weeks and that prices, compared to those of last year, should encourage the retailers to push the selling. The Fleischman Floral Co., which likes to advertise good flowers at mod- erate prices, used a costly space in the Tribune, October 21, to offer cattleyas at $1.25 each, made up in corsages. Dr. Maurice Rubel, oflScial head of the concern, says prices for the last year rarely have given the retailers real op- portunity to develop the business and he cites valley at 15 cents a spray wholesale, $3 per dozen retail, as one of the luxuries the public usually elects to go without. There was a quiet home wedding at the residence of Mr. and Mrs. E. C. Amling, in Oak Park, October 15, when their second daughter, Gertrude, be- came the bride of Elmer Volkman.

As indicating what happened to the growers of single violets, Charles Mc- Cauley says he planted out 8,000 last spring, but when housing time came the drought had disposed of all but 2,000, so he benched only one-fourth as many as had been expected. Paul Klingsporn and Clarence Ells- worth returned October 21, after a week's trip east. From the F. T. D. convention they went to New York and Philadelphia. Mr. Klingsporn came home more than ever satisfied with the situation in the Chicago market and pleased with the progress of his com- pany, the Chicago Flower Growers ' As- iociation. F.

Wabash Ave., OoTOBn 28, 1919. The Florists^ Review 45 ■p ■ .-.jt, y ^^ There is a Money- Making Difference ^^ or just any box? Rare wine from a tin cup loses its charm. Beautiful sentiments uttered by the immoral would lose their effectiveness, and by the same token you may employ expert help, use the best flowers, but if your boxes are not the proper kind, you will reduce the quality of your merchandise to the same grade as cheaper flowers in good boxes will produce. The DURO PAPER PRODUCTS COMPANY is the largest manufacturerfl of florist boxes in the United States, and the business has all been built up on quality boxes. First — Nothing but the best board is permitted to be used in DURO boxes, thereby making them not only attractive but lasting. Second — DURO boxes are heavier than the average flower boxes on the market^^today, and therefore represent the greater value. Third — When you examine a DURO box, you will find that it has been creased on one of our special machines] to make it fold easily without cracking, and retain'its shape. Fourth — The board in DURO boxes is hard of finish, and is not affected by sprinkling. Fifth — The corners are so arranged with our special lock that they are easy to fasten, "do not break and are firmly held in place. Sixth — We take pride in our ability to properly print boxes, producing a package both neat and valuable from an advertising standpoint. In short, DURO boxes are the best and most economical boxes now being produced and we can prove it. The DURO gray box has been a revelation to users of superior quality, and now come the DURO White and Pink Glazed, which surpass them all. Every one manufactured complete in our own factory, and carried in stock for the better- ment of our service and convenience of our customers. You can obtain DURO boxes from any one of the following dealers, who handle DURO boxes because DURO boxes are best. NEW YORK CITY Duro Paper Products Co., 1170 Broadway CHICAGO A. L. Randall Co.

Last week dahlias had an excellent call and fancy grades sold well at high prices. A few violets are showing, but it needs colder weather to give them color and stem. Violet growers in Kirkwood promise a big crop this season. Sweet peas, too, will be seen in abundance at an early date. All green goods are cleaned up almost daily in this market, especially smilax, asparagus and fancy ferns. Shipping trade in cut stock has greatly improved since the cooler weather has set in. Publicity Committee Meeting. The florists* publicity committee held a special meeting October 14, at head- quarters at the establishment of the W. C. Smith Wholesale Floral Co. Chairman Bourdet presided over the meeting, which had a good attendance. The secretary's report showed a good balance on hand to start the season's advertising campaign. Three of the wholesalers have subscribed $100 each, besides doing the work of collecting the funds from the retailers and growers. The committee decided to spend $3,000 for newspaper advertising from Novem- ber 1 to April 1 and all advertising v^rill be handled by an advertising company. In this undertaking, they have asked the retailer to allow the wTiolesaler to add the one per cent of all goods pur- chased by them from any of the whole- salers and to cooperate in insisting up- on the amount being added on their bills should they neglect to do so. The growers are 100 per cent in the plan in deducting one-half of one per cent from their checks and are going to insist that the wholesaler do this. Why some of the wholesalers object to this plan is hard to understand. So this committee asks the retailer and the grower who desire the most benefit from publicity to cooperate with it and make the ^ DONT OVERLOOK THIS BARGAIN ! U The McCallum Company ^ ^.

Since no show has been held for the last three years, the public should be eager for one. The fine fall weather of late has given a great deal of work to our local nurs- erymen. H. J. Weber & Sons and the Sanders Nursery Co. are experiencing a busy season. Mr. and Mrs. William Dee celebrated their sixth wedding anniversary last week. Mr. Dee is the store manager for the C. Young & Sons Co. J. M. Walthcr, 3645 Iowa avenue, is having great success this year with poinsettia plants. Fred Alvps, manager for the Geo. H. Angormueller Co., says more activity in the trade was shown last week than any time since the season opened. Shipping trade, too, has opened up well. Our local dahlia growers have been sending an abui^ance of fine blooms to this market. The frost was quite heavy October 18 and those growing in the low lands suffered, while those on high ground are still bringing in a supply. All other outdoor stock also suffered with them. The bowlers who compose the "Say It with Flowers" league had a great time on the night of October 15. The Sweet Peas defeated tlje Eoses by win- ning the odd game and the Carnations surprised the spectators by winning all three games from the Daisies. Captain Kuehner, of the Roses, and Captain Bourdet, of the Daisies, are calling for help, while Captain Windier, of the Carnations, and Captain Bentzen, of the Sweet Peas, are smiling, as they have signed two strong bowlers. This week the Daisies meet the Eoses and the Sweet Peas meet the Carnations. All florists are invited down to see the fun any Wednesday night. J. J. B. The will of Miss M. S.

It was a bright idea to select the week ending with Saturday, October 18, for flower week in Philadelphia. For it was the first week of the season for a heavy supply of really fine flowers in variety. It was also a week when there was not nearly enough business to re- quire all the flowers that were offered. The supply of flowers for the week was so much ahead of the demand that the wholesalers were unable to market them at satisfactory prices. They said there was business, plenty of it, but there were so many flowers to market they could not get value for numbers of them. The feeling is growing that under ex- isting conditions it would be better to stop cutting dahlias. Several retailers have notified their wholesalers that they would buy no more dahlias after October 18, believing that it would be better for them to offer chrysanthemums instead. This feeling has not yet become general. Dahlias have fallen in price, but the two light frosts have not improved them. Chrysanthemums are coming into their true form. The first Chrysolora and Oconto are excellent. There is no really fine pink yet that is equal to the two named as leaders in yellow and white. Unaka, Early Rose, Glory of Pacific and Pacific Supreme are all nice. It is an OCTOBSB 23, 1919.

Fancy dahlias at $4 to $6 J)er hundred are better value than low-grade mums at $8 to $12.50 per hun- dred. Buyers take the dahlias in pref- erence to ordinary mums at the begin- ning-of-the-season prices and refuse to look at carnations at all. Pompons have arrived. As in the case of their bigger sisters, pink is the color least seen in the earlies. Beauties are still holding their own. Cattleyas have declined to 50 and 75 cents. Roses have fared better than carnations. Double and single cosmos make a big splash in a little way. Andalusia. Henry F. Michell had a definite idea when he and his brother bought their farm at Andalusia. He meant to make it a show place. Of course he meant to grow seeds and plants and perennials, but first and foremost he meant to have a show place. "We are great adver- tisers," Mr. Michell remarked, and it is certainly true. The advertising value of the Michell place at Andalusia lies in its bordering the tracks of the Pennsylvania rail- road's New York division. Mr. Michell thinks that the people who deal writh his house go to and fro on this division. The way that full advantage has been taken of this position is admirable. The plan is bold and striking. It has been most effectively carried out.

It has been planted in solid colors in immense beds of a single variety. These beds are set in a straight line that runs parallel to the railroad tracks on a great field of velvety green lawn. To relieve the ap- pearance of a set design, beds of ever- greens, Colorado blue spruce and retinis- poras, are placed between the beds of cannas in a row running in a straight line a little farther back, but parallel to them. This relieves the stiffness. The canna line of beds and the ever- green line are varied by one or two beds of Salvia Zurich. The whole front appears at a distance like a blaze of color. Then on closer inspection the scarlets and golds stand out on the green, with the dark evergreens adding intensity — a grand sight. The varieties of cannas are all old, tried friends — King Humbert, Wyom- ing, Hungaria, Yellow King Humbert, made more striking by its pronounced tendency to revert. President is a new sort of rare promise. Manager A. E. Burton pointed out a series of twenty- five frames ranging from 87 to 130 feet in length, built of reinforced 8-inch con- crete, nearly finished. Mr. Burton said the salvia seed crop just being har- vested was fine, adding that they had to stop selling hydrangeas, due prob- ably to the alertness of The Review readers to snap up good things. Flower Week. Flower week closed Saturday evening, October 18. It was well supported throughout the city. Signs were dis- played, posters nailed up, stickers pmt on and, best of all, the stores were, in the main, beautifully decorated. Great credit ig gladly given to the retailers, who made their shops exceedingly at- tractive by their handsome displays. This is a splendid beginning.

Give their plan a fair, trial, LUy Bulbs. The lily bulb market is in a state of extreme agitation. Owing to well-known conditions, the pritee has advanced to an alarming extent. The reported loss of a Japanese steamer containing a large quantity of giganteum bulbs in- tended for this country and the short crop have made matters worse. There is also a disposition on the part of the growers and importers to make the most of the market, due to the high prices obtained for lilies last Easter. Whether our growers will be willing to pay the price asked for bulbs will soon be seen. It is generally believed that many of those who grow only a few lilies will not buy bulbs this year, but that those who grow lilies in large numbers will continue to do so. A Little Bit of Fun. Samuel 8. Pennock tells the following •tory of what occurred a few days ago in his company's Philadelphia store: "A grower who was on my right remarked that he hoped that there would soon be a frost. Almost at the same moment a grower on my left said he hoped that frost would be late this year. Neither heard what the other said. I introduced them, told each one what the other had said, and then left them. ' ' Coal. A meeting of the representatives of the soft coal miners and operators was held in the ^ellevue-Stratford hotel October 11. The miners demand a 6- hour working day, a 5-day week and a sixty per cent wage increase. The op- erators declined. No agreement was reached. The miners will strike No- vember 1 to enforce their demands. They expect 600,000 men to obey their caU. Various Notes.

Phil, DULUTH, MINN. The Market. Business conditions for the week end- ing October 18 were especially satis- factory and stock of all kinds is in short supply. Of course, we cannot compare this year's business with last year's, as there were unusual conditions then on account of the influenza epi- demic, which created an unusual de- mand for funeral flowers, and the great forest fire in Duluth and the surround- ing districts. Chrysanthemums show a wonderful improvement and are in great demand. The leading varieties last week were Yellow Turner, the Queen and Pink Chieftain; few pompons are on the mar- ket as yet. Carnations are still scarce and the quality none too good, with prices fairly high. Eoses are good and are selling well at good prices, espe- cially Mrs. Charles Euasell, Columbia, Hoosier Beauty and Ophelia. Cecile Brunner is only of moderate stock. Gladioli are still coming in, but the sup- ply is limited. Valley is still scarce, with not much sign of improvement. Outdoor flowers are entirely over and the old saying is true that you never miss them till they are gone. The sup- ply of greens and smilax was much bet- ter last week than before and was am- ple to meet the demand. The Dutch bulbs arrived last week, so that orders that were booked some time ago can now be filled. Various Notes.

The carnations have shown marked improvement of late. The flowers are now fair-sized and the stems are approaching a usable length. Good stock is being offered at $6 per hundred.

H. E. Wilson is cutting some fine early chrysanthemums, for whioh he finds ready sales. Funeral and wedding work was good last week and prospects for the fall and winter are encouraging. Hugo Teute has a great quantity of chrysanthemums coming along in fine shape, some of the earlier varieties be- ing in good bloom. H. J. H. NASHVILLE, TENN. The Market. The last two weeks have been the wettest of the year, with rain every day, till only those who had to came on the streets. Of course, business has not been so good as it should l^ave been. We had a frost scare twice, but it is clear at last and warmer, so that we expect to have a few weeks of good weather again. With clear weather, business is looking up and it is likely that there will be a shortage of flowers during much of the fall. Chrysanthemums have begun to take their place on the market, but none of the really good ones have come as yet. Home-grown gladioli are scarce and dahlias were all but a failure. Roses art beginning to be plentiful and the quality is improving rapidly, too. The cloudy, wet weather has held the car- nations back, but they are beginning to show better quality. They are not any better than they were two weeks ago, however, but are selling well. The fea- ture of the market is the total absence of good pot plants. Even ferns are scarce and not of good quality. The growers have a good supply of pot mums that will arrive within a week or so and there will be a fine lot of cycla- mens by holiday time. With practically no lilies in sight, it is becoming a ques- tion what we are to offer the buyers in the way of pot plants when the holidays come around. Now that the Dutch bulbs are in, it is evident that the few that have been bought will not cut much of a figure in the market this season.' Orchids are beginning to come in from the local growers, though it will be a month before there will be any quantity. The new rose, Premier, has appeared on the market and already we WILD SMILAX FRESH FROM THE WOODS 50-lb. cases, $3.00 Write, wire or phone. KNUD NIELSEN, EVERGREEN.

It's the re- membering that means so much. Those friendships you prize so highly — those courtesies you ought to acknowledge — those favors you intend to repay — all can be remembered more graciously and thoughtfully by the simple, timely gift of exquisite flowers. It's the tender thought — the sincere message — that makes flowers so appropriate. For 'the gift without the giver is bare.' But your gift of flowers is — you." The space occupied was twelve inches deep and four and one-half inches wide. It was most appealing in character — ^just had to be read. There's a Good Time Coming. Similar advertisements with different illustrations and wordings and others in page form — many of them in four colors — are to be used in a number of weeklies and monthlies between now and the Christmas holiday season. Some of you can appreciate the heavy expense attaching to the procuring of all this publicity for our products and the fact that we need funds with which to defray this expense. Never, since the campaign began, havo we needed funds more than now. We realize that we have just passed through our annual period of summer dullness, but we real- ized also that we have entered a period of good business, leaving behind a time when perhaps many in the trade might have felt a tug on the purse; therefore, we may reasonably expect those who have not yet supported the campaign to do something for it now. There was only one reason for the beginning of it — the stimulation of sales of flowers. This has been accomplished in good measure and continuance means a still greater measure. No matter where a florist is located, he has felt the benefit of this stimulation and, beyond the possibility of doubt, will feel it still more as the campaign goes on. So Be Loyal Now. If a florist is loyal to his business, would like to see it expand and would have flowers considered as a necessity rather than a luxury in every home, it is his bounden duty to support this campaign, which, more than anything else, is working toward these ideals. It is no Utopian dream; experience has proved that we can accomplish our pur- pose.

A. F. The Blindness of Slackerism. How often in the past have we heard of men who said that they did not join the S. A. F. or the local florist club be- cause they had no time to attend meet- ings or who appeared not interested? Such an attitude might get by, if it were an association not connected with a man's own occupation or profession, but when given by men «as an excuse for not joining organizations for the betterment of his own business, it shows the highest type of slackerism. To allow a few men who have the same interest as all the others in the trade to shoulder all responsibilities surely is not right, unless they have the backing of the many to encourage them. And then, to participate in the benefits that come afterwards without sharing in the burden of the expense now and then, is another point of slackerism and selfishness. More Worth Helping, If You Help. We passed through a period of this kind of duty and service given at Wash- ington by a few unselfish men who rep- resented the S. A. F. two years ago, also on another occasion when a confer- ence was held on the plant quarantine act. Many other things might be men- NEW YORK CITY A. WARENDORFF F. T. D.

Yet, there are far too many who hold aloof from joining these various bodies where so much good is being done and so much more might be accomplished. The S. A. F. should have the backing of every man in the profession for the way it gets behind every movement that tends to help the business generally. The men who do not join have still the benefits given by the society — and the knowledge that they are not supporting it. Does it pay to stay out? The old time sage asked "If I am not for my- self, who will bet but if I am only for myself, what am I?" You Need to Join. Doesn't this argument convince those who still hesitate about joining and contributing to the various activities connected with flowers? We need you and you need us. Therefore, in a sense and spirit of cooperation where all bene- fit, join and contribute and you will be a bigger man for so doing. Now. Arnold Bennett once said "You will never have a better chance than you have at present. You may think you will, but you arc mistaken." Doesn't this strike home to all who are hesitat- ing about joining? Go to it now and there will be a return many-fold by way of better understanding and good- will toward those and from those with whom you come in contact.

There is also a house 33x200 of callas, from which they are cutting, and a bench of cypripedium. The varieties of carna- tions chiefly grown are Aviator, Belle Washburn and Matchless. Their new begonia, Mrs. Patten, a sport from Chatelaine, is much to be commended. While it is a free bloomer like its par- ent, it is a cleaner grower and has bet- ter color, a good Christmas color, and is an all-the-year variety.

Mark Roper, who succeeded to his father's business almost four years ago, has a fine range of large, high houses. Some of them are almost new and all of them are freshly repainted. The late Mr. Roper, who was an expert on car- nations and their culture, originated many fine varieties, including a seed- ling which bears his name. Seven of these varieties compose tlie stock now grown by the present owner and are in magnificent condition. All are grown in solid beds on the ground. Cuts have been made from them for the last five weeks, with stems of good length. This firm usually plants 46,000, but this year's planting was less by about 10,- 000. The additional space has been utilized with Christmas Pink sweet peas. The seed was sown six feet between rows and four inches between the peas. Mr. Roper sowed also five pounds of radish, of a forcing v.iriety. Mark Roper recommends housiiijj carnations in July.

An interesting schedule has been compiled and can be liad on application. A discussion arose among the members as to wliat constitutes an annual; some claimed that any plant that can be flowered from seed the first year is an annual, while others held that an annual must flower and die down and be impossible to carry over another year. After the meeting a Welcome Home party was held in honor of our boys who gave their services in the war. It was thoroughly enjoyed by all.

Both ranches are under the management of Mr. Parker's son, Joseph O. Parker, who has been in the far west for some years. Joseph J. Goudy was in the city last week, representing Henry A. Dreer, Inc., Philadelphia. Adolph Kruhm, secretary of Beckert 's Seed Store, has purchased a home in Bradford Woods near the firm's leased trial grounds of last summer. Mr. Kruhm 's new home is surrounded by three acres of fertile ground, which will servo as next year's trial grounds. Ee- cently he returned from a two weeks' eastern trip for the purpose of inspect- ing and purchasing stock. The firm has had two fine vegetable displays this fall and is now having a bulb exhibition. Manager August Frischkorn reports that the coming season in the bulb line promises to be much more satisfacFory than last, on account of prompt and in- creased number of incoming shipments. Samuel P.

Mr. Gidas's business already justifies his employing two salesmen, Max Goldhammer, who was formerly identified with one of Abraham Gron- gold's enterprises, and Frank Steele, who is "new in the business." The Rosery is supplemented by a well stocked aquarium. The business of David Hill & Co. has outgrown its original quarters at 258 Fifth avenue and consequently they have started a handsome little branch shop in the corridor of the Grand Ar- cade building, in the neighboring block, Joseph J^inestein, the junior member of the firm, is in charge of the new enter- prise. Mrs. Thomas J. Cavanaugh, the head saleswoman in the Braddock store of Johnson the Florist, left last Friday evening, October 17, for an extended sojourn at Bradentown, near Sarasota bay, Florida, hoping thereby to be en- tirely relieved of the throat trouble superinduced by the violent attack of Spanish influenza which seized her six weeks or more ago. Mrs. Cavanaugh hopes to be able to return home for the liolidays, but if not sufficiently well by that time she will remain until spring. Meanwhile Lieutenant Cavanaugh will keep the home fires burning. Quantities of chrysanthemums com- posed the decorations of the First Pres- byterian church, of Wilkinsburg, last Saturday afternoon for the wedding of Edward Earl Ludwig and Miss .Jane Furrow & Co.

Dutch bulbs are arriving and in gen- eral are far better than last year. Va.rious Notes. The directors of the Western Wash- ington Fair Association have decided to put up a permanent building for the flower department. W. H. Paulhamus, president of the fair association, has asked E. Popp, of Fort Steilacoom, Wash., to have plans drawn for a suit- able building to hold cut flowers, plants and nursery stock for display. Mr. Popp would like to hear from all florists and nurserymen around Tacoma and Seattle, to get their ideas on the matter. A large number have agreed to exhibit next year. Several advance orders have been re- ceived for the Scandinavian-American bank, which moves into its new quarters this week. E. P. EVAKSVILLE, IND. The Market. Chrysanthemums are becoming more numerous each day and will, of course, be the first in demand while they last. After several days of cold rains it turned clear and the temperature dropped to 36 degrees Saturday, Octo- ber 18; however, the frost was not heavy enough to do much damage. Various Notes. The Evansville Centennial Exposition, which opened October 10, is the biggest thing that has happened here for a long time. It runs to October 24. The at- tendance is large and there are thou- sands of visitors from out of town and a consequent increase in business. Visitors last week included J. C.

Pnaldrat, B. 0. Dangan, Philadelphia, Pa.; Mcretarj-treaanrer, 0. H. Kendel, CleTeland, O. From the southern trade comes the re- port that the buying of fall seeds is heavier than last year. Although the French crop of Paper ■Whites was so short that some people •called it a crop failure, there still are some unsold bulbs in jobbers' hands in America. L. Feank Post, who recently resigned from the vice-presidency of the I. W. Scott Seed Co., Pittsburgh, Pa., and Mrs. Post, have left Pittsburgh to make their home at Conneaut Lake, Pa. John T. Oxley, formerly with the Al- bert Dickinson Seed Co., Chicago; Noble Bros., Gibson City, 111., and also in a wholesale business of his own for four years, is now with the Nebraska Seed Co., at Omaha. Taking it by and large, seed crops are turning out about an average. There are spots, like the vine seed district in Colo- rado, peas in Montana and the tomato seed districts in the east, where the acre- age abandoned is larger than usual, but on the whole the failures are not more numerous than usual. A LATE importation of narcissus bulbs, which arrived from Marseilles on the steamship Canada, consisted of sixty-four cases. Of these, thirty-seven cases were consigned to the Equitable Trust Co., and twenty-seven to the American Express Co. This small shipment, together with the three previous shipments, which aggre- gated 14,813, brings the season's total imports of French bulbs up to 14,877 cases. FRENCH SEEDS AND THE WAB. The influence of the war on this coun- try's seed importations from France is shown in figures given in a recent sup- plement to the government commerce reports. For seeds, the statistics of the invoiced values declared at the Paris consulate general show that America's seed imports of 1917 were valued at $602,773, whereas the 1918 imports sank to $425,413, a twenty-eight per cent de- crease. In commenting on these and similar figures, the report classes seeds with articles "the American demand for which has hitherto been supplied mostly by countries other than France. In this class are many articles which were exported to the United States chiefly by Germany before the war." STEIKE STILL DELAYS BULBS. Importations of Holland bulbs are still being hold up in New York harbor by the lonf^shoremen's strike. While the government has sent two regiments of soldiers to unload ships which are purely in the government's service, commercial vessels are waiting for resumption of work by the strikers, which seems re- mote at present, or the employment of strike-breakers, which, though threat- ened, has not been done yet. In the meantime congestion of shipments is growing, and even after work com- mences again in earnest in the harbor there will be long delay in forwarding the bulbs now held there, which are a large part of the season 's supply.

DUTCH BULB ARRIVALS. Not Record Bulb Shipment. The shipment of Holland bulbs which reached New York on the Canard steamer Norman Monarch September 22 was not, as reported, the record in num- ber of cases on board one vessel. For, on investigation, the published figures of 27,564 cases, given by the manifest, prove to be incorrect. The correct num- ber, the Cunard Steam Ship Co. states, is approximately 15,000. The original total, as given for publication, was an error. The largest cargo of bulbs ever re- ceived was therefore brought by the Khiva last year. On this steamer, says V. F. W. Frick, of the General Bulb Co., New York, were 22,000 cases. Last Week's Receipts.

American growers, there- fore, depend to a considerable extent upon home-grown sugar beet seed. "The present indications are that there is sufficient sugar beet seed, either imported or domestic, now in the hands of nearly all of the beet sugar com- panies in the United States to take care of the entire acreage to be planted to sugar beets in 1920, but that there is little foreign sugar beet seed now avail- able for importation and that the for- eign production in the immediate fu- ture will be limited. "The domestic beet seed production is increasing rapidly. In 1918 about 6,000 acres of sugar beet seed were grown, while in 1919 upward of 10,000 acres were planted to beet roots for seed in the United States. Unfortunate- ly, drought interfered with a normal production of sugar beet seed in some localities this last season, but the re- sulting reduction in yield was local and temporary and should not prevent or re- tard the efforts that are being made to produce in this country an adequate supply of sugar beet seed to meet the American requirement for 1921 and the years following."

Mums are coming into the local mar- ket in large quantities now and are of excellent quality, with long, strong stems. The demand for them is in- creasing. The dahlias now on the mar- ket are also of excellent quality. There is a considerable demand at present for Boston ferns and small ferns for winter fern dishes. Last week there was a large sale of bulbs for fall planting. Growers are beginning to plant Paper Whites and other bulbs for spring flowering. Prospects are good for a large fall business. Various Notes. Christopher Penek, 637 Broad street, is selling many small ferns, in addition to the fall flowers. Hahne's flower department makes a Saturday specialty of selling $1 boxes of fall flowers. The Perdue Flower Shop is the trade name which has been filed for the retail business conducted at 574 Main street, East Orange, by Laurence Knapp, of 153 Glenwood avenue. East Orange. E. B. M. Akron, O.^Grossberg & Cahill, now at 203 South Main street, expect to open their new store about December 10. Mr. Cahill was formerly with the Akron Flower Shop. Red Wing, Minn. — Hail broke almost every light in the Sten Greenhouses October 1, but Charles Nordeen brought a load of glass in his Ford from the Jewell Nursery Co., at Lake City, Minn., next day, with assurance of enough more to make all repairs, and so damages to the plants were kept down. The greenhouses at Lake City were not dam- aged by the storm. SOME FINE STOCK size Per Per of Pot 100 1000 2k-in. Asparacus Plumosus and Sprengeri f4.50 140.00 4 -in.

BAUR & STEINKANP 3800 Rockwood Ave. INDIANAPOLIS, IND. Menrioti The Review when von write. COLUMBUS, O. The Market. Trade is quite brisk and has been for the last two or three weeks, with good stock coming in. Mums are quite plen- tiful, but up to this time they have moved as fast as they came in. Some growers have had the good luck to have a fine lot of early varieties in before the blooms made their appearance in large quantity. But there is no surplus yet to speak of. Boses are coming in nicely. Carna- tions are a little more plentiful and the quality is improving. The stems are a little short. Dahlias have found a place for themselves this fall. They have been used extensively in funeral work, much more than heretofore. Sweet peas have made their appearance, but the quality has not been anything to boast of. We have had several frosts up to date, but none has done a great deal of damage. There is a strong demand for ferns at this time. A good number of indoor willow boxes are being filled. The outlook is good here for a prosper- ous season. Various Notes. The Franklin Park Floral Co. has been rebuilding part of the range. The work is now about completed. Underwood Bros, are kept busy by fu- neral work. They report other business good also. The Columbus Floral Co. has had great success with early mums. They have a good lot of midseason and late varieties coming on. The McKellar Flower Shop reports good business, with lots of funeral work. Mrs. C. A. Eoth, wife of Charles A. Eoth, died last week from heart trou- ble. She was buried Friday afternoon, October 17. There was a large attend- ance of florists to show their respect. J. M. Tarrytown, N. Y. — The Tarrytown Horticultural Society will hold its twenty-first annual exhibition in the Music hall November 5 to 7. Most of the prizes scheduled for flowers are for mums, orchids and violets.

Last week showed stock to be short, but prices were not up to last year's in any staple flowers with the excep- tion of chrysanthemums, which have been slow in coming, and any that were good or fancy brought good and fancy prices. Eoses have cleaned up well each day at fair prices. Orchids can now be had at $1 each and some cypripediums are in at $4 per dozen. Carnations are arriving better in quality and quantity, but are cleaned out quickly at $4 to $5 per hundred. Some blooming plants are now avail- able, chiefly cyclamen and primroses; some fine potted mums are coming soon. Keports on the condition of retail business show some stores with a de- ficiency in sales, due to the lack of a great amount of funeral work such as that which was handled last year at this time. However, under the present circumstances, which are normal, busi- ness is good and prices are paid liy the customer if the stock warrants. Vaxious Notes. Mrs. M. O. Seaman, formerly with the Currie Bros. Co., is busy arranging a new flower store in the Wells build- ing; it is posted to open November 1. Baumgarten, Inc., will move in the near future from its present home on Mason street to a larger and better ap- pointed store on Wisconsin street. Mrs. Ida Baumgarten and her daughter re- turned last week from a trip east. The Holton & Hunkel Co. shipped a car of cyclamen to Pittsburgh last week. The plants ranged from 4-inch to 8-inch. There were nearly 5,000 plants in the lot. W. C. Zimmermann and A. H. Mac- Donald were taken to the Brown Deer range of the Holton & Hunkel Co. by F. H. Holton, October 17, to inspect the mums, which are a grand sight just now. Olaf J. Olson, of Holm & Olson, St. Paul, Minn., was the guest of F. H. Holton, October 17 and 18. H. Z.

The Flower City 114 The Florists' Review October 23, 1919. Greenhouse Heating COAL MEN WON'T OOMPBOMISE. After the miners and operators failed to reach an agreement in joint confer- ences at Buffalo and Philadelphia, Sec- retary of Labor Wilson called them to Washington to meet with government officials, in the hope of reaching some sort of agreement. But the sessions last week ended with no progress, and this week holds out no promise of a compromise so far. The operators maintain their determination not to negotiate the matter of a 6-hour day and will not deal with the unions unless the strike set for November 1 is called off. The miners, while express- ing their willingness to meet the opera- tors, hold no hope for a settlement ' ' un- less the operators change their stone- wall attitude." They stand firm in their demands for a sixty per cent in- crease, a 6-hour day and a 5-day week. While some opinion at Washington is that the miners, in the face of the tre- mendous public pressure, will not carry through their strike threat, which would cause at this time of year a dangerous industrial tie-up, many assert that no compromise can be reached, since both sides are determined to stick to the po- sitions they have held since the confer- ences were first opened. Secretary Wil- son is exerting all his influence to avert the calamity which such a strike would bring upon the public in the present fuel situation. SIZE OF SMOKESTACK Please tell me how large a smokestack it would take to give me satisfactory results. My boiler has twenty-eight 3- inch flues, nine feet long, and my present smokestack is twenty-two feet high and twelve inches across inside. There is not enough draft to carry the soot out and I am compelled to clean the flues every night. G. A. B. — 0. The height of the smokestack is more likely to account for the poor draft than its diameter, although both should be increased. Our suggestion is that you use a smokestack sixteen inches in diameter with a height of thirty feet above where the flue enters. Fair re- sults could be obtained with the 12-inch stack if it were made forty feet high, provided a good grade of coal were used. BXTBNING OAS AND SLACK. I have a 90-horsepower tubular boiler, which I fire with natural gas. It is equipped with two sets of burners. One is a set of grate burners which lie on the two sides of the firebox and face each other with a space of about forty-three inches between them. This space is taken up with grate bars. The other is a set of Kirkwood burners, which are horn-shaped and set in the doors of the firebox. I have a breaker of fire bricks set on the grates to break up the gas as it comes from the burners. The gas I burn comes from a near-by well, which in cold weather does not give me enough gas to keep steam up. I have a small 2-flue boiler of twenty horsepower which is connected with the large one and in which I burn slack to help the large one at times when the gas is insufficient. ■ aaDHDHDaaBaHaHaHDBDBDBaBOB ^KROESCHELL BOILERS^ n a B D D D B D D B □ Neither in the East or West nor the North or South has any other ' D maice of Boiler ever equaled the performance of the Kroeschell. ■ D Installed for 3,974,605 square feet of glass in 1916-1917. ■ D The Kroeschell has proven its worth in many of the largest establish- ments in this country.

Which would be the more economical way to operate them, to do as I have been doing or to pull out the two Kirk- wood burners and fire with slack be- tween the two side burners? I could take out the burners and fire brick in a few minutes. I am sure the large boiler would give me steam enough for my range if I got enough fire in it, yet I do not want to burn slack alone, as I pay an annual rental for the gas and have the privilege of burning all that I need or can get.

Address DepL 6 tion to using the natural gas in the large one, will make it possible to ob- tain the temperature desired in the houses, we should certainly recommend that method of heating, instead of burn- ing slack in the large boiler. As we understand it, there will really be no expense for the natural gas above above what must be paid for if it is not used, and the cost of the slack and the labor of firing would certainly be less in the small than in the large boiler. EEDUCING VALVES. The plumber doing my steamfitting says that I ought to have a reducing valve and that two would be better. Please tell me if they save any coal com- pared to their cost. My place is 12,000 to 15,000 feet, low pressure, P. G.— Ind. On large ranges, and especially when the systems to be heated are located at a considerable distance from the power plant, it is customary to carry a high pressure at the boilers and use a reduc- ing valve on the main where it connects with thj service pipes. The special ad- vantage is that a much smaller main can be used, which will make a considerable saving in the cost of the pipe and pipe coverings. It will also give a better circulation in the mains than when low pressure and large mains are used. When the boilers are run at a low pressure, there is, of course, no occa- eion for using a reducing valve, which is seldom tound on small ranges. FITTING HOUSES TO BOILER. How many greenhouses 30x100 feet, with three feet of glass in the walls and one glass gable, could a 40-horsepower double tubular return boiler provide for, to maintain a temperature of 60 degrees inside against an outside temperature of 20 degrees below f The greenhouses would be connected in a range with a boiler room and service room on the north or cold sid . Would such a boiler be suitable to use in a range of three or four houses of the size I have stated I This boiler can be secured here at a good figure and, as we need additional room and contemplate building within the next year, we do not want to let this boiler get away if it can be used to any advantage.

Cane is able to be out after two weeks' illness. Charles Thomas left for Chicago Sun- day uight, October 19. Mrs. T. A. Moseley, Kansas City, Kan., has had a number of weddings lately. This neighboring city is boom- ing in a business way. Property values arc increasing and it is impossible to find a store for rent or lease on Minne- Bota avenue. Mrs. Maud Everett, of Pawhuska, Okla., bought a new Buick while in Kansas City, a few days ago, and drove the car home. She was accompanied by Mrs. T. J. Noll, who will spend a few days in Pawhuska. The greenhouses of the Longview Floral Co. are cutting some good chrys- anthemums. T. J. Noll began cutting chrysanthemums October 17. Henry Kusik & Co. will have the en- tire output of John Stevens' green- . houses this season. Mr. Stevens special- izes in carnations and chrysanthemums. Mr. and Mrs. Charles Thomas motored to Pleasant Hill Sunday, October 12. Samuel Murray had the decorations for the fiftieth anniversary of Eural Lodge at Shrine Hall, October 11. The occasion was observed with an enter- tainment and dance. The decorations were on an elaborate scale. Quantities of smilax, palms and bay trees were used, as well as cut flowers. Each of the women guests was presented with a corsage of Bussell roses. The Pinehurst Floral Co. is cutting mums every day, but has not half enough to supply the demand. This firm is arranging to add 2,500 feet of glass to the pot plant section of the greenhouses at Pleasant Hill. William Day, who was put in charge of this section several months ago, is one of the best in his line in the country. In addition to considerable other out- side stock, the Rosery had about 1,000 gladiolus bulbs this summer, from which good results were obtained. Augusta proved an especially satisfactory flower for funeral orders and was much used. J. E. K. Manitowoc, Wis.— The range which the Madson Send Co. is building will be managed by 8. H.

Oh, suns and skies and clouds of June, And flowers of June together, Te cannot rival for one liour October's bright blue weather I This has certainly been the case this year. We have been visited by only two frosts and they have been light. So summer stock" has had a chance to con- tinue its growth. As a result, cosmos and dahlias are in abundance. Other outdoor stock includes snapdragons, pan- sies and buddleia, but these are in lim- ited amounts. Chrysanthemums are a Little more con- spicuous. These are of good quality and in active demand. Pink, yellow, white and a few lavender ones are being of- fered. Eoses have also been arriving in larger supply, but, like the mums, are all being sold daily. Carnations are scarce. Potted Jerusalem cherries are on dis- play. Good ferns are seen in the win- dows. Chatelaine begonias are also in favor. Business continues fairly brisk. Coun- ter trade has been good. Funeral work is about as usual. State Association Flower Show. The Indiana State Florists' Associa- tion announces a flower show at the Claypool hotel, Indianapolis, November 13 and 14. Everyone is invited, includ- ing those from outside the state, who are urged to exhibit and compete for the liberal cash premiums. Indiana exhibi- tors are limited to association members. Preliminary premium lists have been distributed; the final and complete ones are now being printed. These can be obtained from the secretary, O. E. Stein- kamp, 3800 Kockwood avenue, Indian- apolis. The members of the Kentucky State Florists' Association will be the special guests of the Indiana society. The re- turned soldier boys of the Indiana asso- ciation will also be guests of honor.

Heavy rains and killing frosts have put an end to outdoor flowers. A fine cut of roses is coming on and prices are steadily in- creasing. Columbia and Hoosier Beauty are the leaders, selling for $8, $15 and $20 per hundred. Ojjhelia, Shawyer and White Shawyer are also going well at $6, $12 and $15 i)er hundred. Chrysanthemums are still coming on in good numbers, but the stock is not holding up as well as it has in other years and it is almost impossible to get a grade between the best and the small ones. Carnations are also coming on well, the stems being long and the blooms especially good for this time of the year. The demand is greater than the supjily and all that are cut find a ready market at $(5 per hundred. Some fine dahlias were cut during the first part of the month, but the frost has taken practically all of these. Pot plants have been scarce, but win- ter-blooming plants such as cyclamen and obconica are beginning to come on, so that an early im])r()vement is looked for along this line. Taken as a whole, business has been better so far this month than in the same perioil last year, but jirices have not been quite so high. Various Notes. Paul Richmond, formerly with C. A. Samuelson and W. J. Smyth, of Chicago, has accepted a position as salesman and head designer with the Miller Floral Co. Art Granshaw, who is associated with E. A.

This city has enjoyed more than its share of publicity in the last two or three weeks. The world's series, the auto races and the horse racing at Latonia have brought more visitors to the Queen City than could easily be imagined. The florists' share of the spoils was negligible, but the future looks bright. Some fine rose stock is being shipped into this market and is bringing good prices. Chrysolora mums and white pompons are making their appearance and they clean up daily. Various Notes. Peter Herb's dahlias are especially fine this season. Julius Baer is mailing out an an- nouncement folder that is cleverly got- ten up and timely in its construction. H. W. Sheppard's flower shop has booked many orders for wedding work for the next thirty days and, in some instances, record prices were obtained where orchids and valley were required. Large show pieces for a bank opening were a feature of the week's work at this establishment. Edward Forter's shop is resplendent in a new coat of paint. Some baskets seen here certainly had the touch of an artist. Joseph Hill and a party of friends were regular attendants at the world's series games. H. W. Sheppard and Julius Baer at- tended the F.

Evertite Glazing Cement will stand the extreme expan- sion and contraction that a greenhouse is subject to and will not check or crack — nor will it harden. You know what putty will do. Just think how vastly superior Evertite Glazing Cement is to putty. Evertite Glazing Cement applied with a new "Oh Boy" Gun (see cut above) makes an ideal combination.

LOWELIi, MASS. The Market. Stock is becoming more plentiful and is improving in quality. The mild weather and bright, sunny days are bringing on chrysanthemums rapidly. The mid-season varieties will be here before the early kinds are past. The present indications are that mums will be rather scarce for Thanksgiving. There is sure to be a greater demand than usual, in fact a rush, for all kinds of stock, as this will be a real Thanks- giving, the first in several years. Money is plentiful and therefore there will be no lack of buyers. Already there have been demands for laurel festooning for store decoration. Carnations are getting to have good length of stem and sell wholesale at $4 per hundred. Popular varieties are Matchless, Miss Theo, Benora, Winsor and Peerless. Eoper Yellow is a fine pot mum. Various Notes. Columbus day, October 13, was cele- brated as a general holiday in this city. There was a great parade, including several trucks prettily decorated with flowers and tinted foliage, chiefly oak. Several organizations carried bouquets of flowers. Tom O'Brien, of Lawrence, was here October 17, buying stock. He is cut- ting chrysanthemums and finding ready sale for them. Frank Callahan, of the landscape de- partment at J. J. McManmon's nur- series, has bought a Paige automobile. The employees of the A. G.

(2) The bulbs ripen better in Michigan than in Holland. Owing to the dry climate In Mich- igan, the bulbs shrink more but give you a better flower and are better for forcing and cheaper.

Note the two good wide benches and ample width center wall. Consider the ridge height and how the chill is taken ofT the air, before reaching the plants. This is our standard stuck 25 foot house. We can give you a flat price on the materials, or erected complete. It will be exactly the same price anyone can buy it for. The one price to everyone. The Big Whys of the 25 Foot House THE "big boss" recently sent out a bulletin to all our salesmen. It read: "Sell L'5 foot wide greenhouses to all private places aud parks possible. They are better growing houses than the IS footers. Give four good si/.ed benches instead of one wide and two narrow. Cost less to build, in proportion. "In short, the 25 foot wide house is a better buy for the customer. "Bear in mind that we make ji standard stock house 25 feet wide, as well as the IS and 11 footers. "We are in the greenhouse business to sell green- houses, but don't ever lose sight of the fact that we always want to sell the house that's best for our customer. If it's first best for him, it will be first and last best for us." That last phrase splendidly sizes up Lord & Burn- ham's entire business policy. If it's the kind of policy you like, let's talk busi- ness. You say when and where, and we'll be there. [or4& BttrnhamCo.

IN offering our Giganteum Bulbs for immediate delivery, we know our stock. We bought it in the field and our Mr. A. Miller, President, followed it from the field through the packing shtd to the steamship. A large part of our requirements came ^n the same steamer on which he returned from a five months' trip to Japan. By being there we are positive that we obtained the highest quality bulbs produced in Japan this year and our full share of the world's supply. It would have been possible to obtain more bulbs by sacrificing quality, but we cherish the confidence begotten of the ceaseless desire to supply service in mer- chandise and the quality which means true economy. Poor quality, no matter how cheap, is a waste. We gave pref- erence to quality bulbs selected carefully from the fields and saw to it that the grading was above the average standard. We have full confidence that florists purchasing their lily bulbs from us will enjoy a quality we would not have been able to secure had not our Mr. Miller gone per- sonally to Japan. So rigid was his quality standard that we secured only one-third the quantity we had intended to import. They won't last long.

Zygadenus Glaberrimus of Star Flower THE Zygadenus, or Star Flower, is much less known than it de- serves to be. About twenty-five species of this smooth and glaucous perennial have been described. Of these one is Siberian, one Japanese and the rest North American. Bailey says that some of these species are grown in pots, others in the open, and that they are recommended for the wild garden, where they thrive in wet or boggy places. Zygadenus Glaberrimus also has been found on high, dry land, so that it may, like other bog plants, yield readily to cultivation in ordinary garden soil in the South. "The stems of the Star Flower rise from a creeping rootstock to a height of about three feet. The leaves are grasslike, channeled and distinctly nerved, and taper to a point. The flower spikes divide into from three to six branches, often carrying twen- ty-five to fifty flowers and buds, of which ten to fifteen fresh flowers are usually open at one time. As many as twenty-two flowers have been counted open on one spike. The flowefs are white, with a greenish tinge, and with two small, brownish green spots at the base of each of the six points of the lj4-inch to Ij^-inch star. "Zygadenus Glaberrimus is a good keeper, lasting a week as flower." cut The above is part of an article in the Florists' Review of September 25. Our first advertisement appeared in the issue of October 2 and we booked our first order October 8, for 500 plants, which shows that wide awake florists are getting in line for promising new plants. We are so impressed with the merits of this beautiful flower that we are setting several thousand plants for our own use as cut flowers and have decided to offer a limited number to the trade, believing that it will pay every florist to test them out for himself. We recommend that they be planted on rather low, damp soil, if possible, or else where they can be freely watered if it should seem necessary, although it is quite likely they may thrive on any garden soil like Stokesia Cyanea, which, although a native of wet bogSMMKt grows stronger and blooms biPfer when planted on dry lands.

D/' are cryptic to the great mass of the public. Casual allv,sion to telegraph service in newspaper advertisements is meaningless to most readers a/nd therefore valueless to the florist. Explanation will help greatly to get wire orders. mmm NGENIOUS and extrava- gant advertisers still oc- casionally employ puzzles to attract the attention of the public. Whole news- paper pages and vast bill- board space are devoted to a query of a few words, with no clue as to the ad- vertiser. But the answer, not the puzzle, constitutes the real ad- vertising force. The query serves only to attract attention. It opens the pub- lic eye; it stimulates curiosity. Then the answer that everybody looks for drives home the advertised commodity. Suppose the advertiser never gave the answer, but left people to find it for themselves. Would he achieve the same results f The an- swer is unanimous, he would not. He who runs will read — if the letters be sufficiently large — but he will not stop to untangle any abstruse knots or pause to solve riddles, not in this busy day and gen- eration. So much clear and convinc- ing advertising importunes the public 's attention that the dubious and vague is un- heeded. Puzzles. No one has ever emblazoned the letters "F.T. D." on billboards and newspaper pages. Conceivably it might be done. But the advertis- ing would lie, not in stimulating the public curiosity as to what these letters stood for, but in the explanation of just how flowers could be ordered for delivery in dis- tant cities. No, the public has not seen the letters "F. T. D." spread in huge size before their eyes. But every day there appear in retailers' newspaper and direct advertising passing refer- ences to the telegraph delivery of flow- ers which convey little or nothing to a public, the vast majority of which has never used and does not know how to. use this service. They could find out if they wished. Yes, and the public could find the re- ply to the signboard queries if they wished — they need not wait for the ad- vertiser's answer. But the simple fact is, they don't. They must be told. And concerning the telegraph delivery of flowers, they must be told. Public Must Be T(dd. To fellow florists, in a trade paper, "Member Florists* Telegraph Delivery Association" means something. The letters "F. T. D." convey a message to one in the trade.

WEDDING IN PENN'S WINDOW. During the week ending October 18 the Boston traffic officer had his hands full each afternoon in front of 124 Tre- mont street, for throngs gathered to see a mock wedding performed by little girls in the window of Penn the Florist. Hundreds crowded the sidewalks to see the 4-year-old bride and the 8-year-old bridegroom march to the altar. Both principals were girls, Margaret Barr acting as bridegroom and Verna Barr as the bride. The bride wore a wedding gown and carried a bouquet of lilies of the valley. After the ceremony the bridegroom showed his devotion to the bride by kissing and hugging her, much to the delight of the throngs in the street. The window was beautifully deco- rated with lilies of the valley, Ophelia roses, chrysanthemums and other flow- ers. It also contained twenty-four pho- tographs of 1919 brides furnished by a Boston photographer. The window was staged as a favor to Henry Penn, who has long been a friend to the Stage Children of New England. The pantomime marriage was under the direction of Mrs. Mabel Ly- man, directress of the Stage Children of New England. Seven small girls took part. Besides the bridal pair, two bridesmaids, a ring-bearer, a flower girl and a minister took part. After the ceremony all stood in a re- ception line in the shop. Saturday a long line was held in the street to file singly in one door and out the other past the group. Henry Penn, away at the time at the F. T. D. convention, was, unknown to friends and associates, celebrating the twentieth anniversary of his honey- moon. F. T. D. SHIPPING AGREEMENT. As reported in The Review last week, the F. T. D. at Buffalo unanimously adopted the resolution of Ira C. Harper, of the A. W. Smith Co., Pittsburgh, ad- vocating a shipping agreement between seller and purchaser by which they would jointly press claims against car- rier companies and jointly bear losses when claims were not allowed. The resolution containing the proposed agree- ment reads as follows: Whcreiis. the F. T. O. Assncliitlon luis been f'stHbllshi'ii upon the broad foundation of fiilr dealing, and Wherena. It Is the convletlon of this associa- tion that the same spirit of fair dealinR should prevail also in sucli transactions in wlilcli the wholesaler, grower and supply house are a party, and Whereas. In transactions where gocnls are en- trusted to a transportation company and whore such goods are lost or damaged, it has been the custom for the shipper to disclaim responsibility after delivery to such transportation company, resulting in the purchaser alone having to sus- tain all loss ; Therefore, be it resolved, that this association record Its conviction tliat the following agree- ment be Insisted upon In all transactions Involv- ing deilver.v to transportation companies: "Lost or Damaged Goods Agreement. "Tti(> purchaser and seller In this transaction agree that in case of loss or damage of the goods while in the hands of the carrier, a Joint claim will t>e filed with said carrier, the bill to be paid upon adjustment by carrier. Should claim be disallowed in whole or In part, then loss, Incln- slve of carrier's charges and costs of collection. Is to be borne equally by purchaser and seller." And be It further resolved, that all members of this association be furnished with a copy of this resolution and be reqnested to use eV«ry effort to enforce the provisions of said agreement. PLANTS FOE SHADY LOCATION. I am sending a sketch of a formal garden. One part of the rose beds is quite shady and the roses do not do well there. What kind of attractive flowers will do well in this location and look well with the rest of the rose beds? C. D.— Mo. SUNDAY CLOSING IN ST. LOUIS. The wave of Sunday closing has reached Missouri and in St. Louis most of the leading florists are going to close every Sunday after November 1. Some of the florists are much op- posed to this move and are up in arms against it, but in due time it is thought they will come to the others' way of thinking, when they see that those who close really derive a great deal of good from it and suffer no losses. At the Retail Florists' Association's meeting October 20 it was announced that President Fred C. Weber, Jr., would start the closing movement and he asked all the other florists to sup- port the motion. The majority of lead- ing florists have given their support and have stated that they will close on and after the first Sunday in No- vember. Word has been sent to customers through inserts in the monthly state- A few plants which succeed well in shade such as you have are the follow- ing: Digitalis, or foxgloves, astilbes in variety, Funkia subcordata variegata, Mertensia virginica, doronicums, lily of the valley, myosotis, pansies and vio- las. You could, if you wish, use tulips for an early crop, with a base of for- get-me-nots or pansies. Remove these and plant foxgloves, which would be in season with the roses. For a late flower- ing perennial in partial shade. Anemone japonica alba is splendid. There is one other plant which would prove quite serviceable in partial shade, Buddleia variabilis magnifica. It blooms over a long season, but is somewhat later than the roses. I think it would prob- ably prove as satisfactory a hardy plant as you could have. It would require cut- ting back quite hard each spring. In your latitude there would be no ques- tion about its hardiness, or, in fact, of any of the other plants I have named. C. W.

Prosperity, Profits and the C. P. A. Recently a story was told in my pres- ence of a retail florist who does a large business of what might be considered the better class, a business that has been often envied by those wha were less fortunate or who, at least, supposed themselves to be so. But never was the old adage more true that "all is not gold that glitters." The story, as told by the man referred to, is as follows: That, aside from the six weeks or two months during the epidemic of flu last year, his sales this year were fifty per cent mure than last year's and yet, when a trial balance was struck, he just about broke even. There is no one that real- izes more fully than this man himself that a serious leak exists somewhere in his system of bookkeeping and at the present time his books are in the hands of expert accountants, whose business it will be to find out where the trouble is. When we are doing a large volume of business is the time that most care should be given to every detail, but at such times we are prone to grow lax. Need of Cost Accounting. In a great many instances, the retail florist establishments of this country have grown from humble beginnings. Many cases could be enumerated of a man and his wife opening a small store, where they did all of the work them- selves, and when a funeral design was finished, the man would deliver it him- self by street car. Every penny was saved and, as the business grew, there were often children growing with it, who devoted most of their time out of school to helping in the business. Yes, and let us be honest with ourselves, how often was not school neglected for this purpose? The result of this was that these stores from beginnings of the humblest kind have grown into enter- prises that have, in too many cases, gone beyond the business grasp of their owners. In the last decade the retail florists' business has progressed by leaps and bounds and, owing to the perishable nature of its commodities, it needs more careful cost accounting than any other of which I can think. Take, for instance, the business of the man re- fer red to above. Does it not seem nat- ural to expect, if his business increased nfty per cent over last year, that his profits should have increased by a like amount f Making Sure of Maintenance. Now let us get down to a simple ex- ample in arithmetic: Say a retailer puts in a stock of one dozen roses, for which he pays $1; that is the cost to him in the wholesale house. These roses are now his goods; he makes his living by disposing of them at a profit over and above what they have cost him. To do this, he is obliged to maintain an or- ganization great or small depending upon the volume and the class of busi- ness he does. To the cost price of this dozen roses must be added 100 per cent, or another $1, and the question every retailer has to be sure of is, will this dollar maintain his organization and leave him a fair margin of profit! Hunting for the Mice. Now I can hear my readers saying, this is a most simple proposition. All you have to do is compute your over- head expenses and the result is simple. True, there is nothing else to it but this. This, however, is just the point that prompted this article. In comput- ing overhead charges, do we go far enough f There was a time when rent, heat, light, insurance and perhaps a horse and wagon constituted the bur- den of overhead expense, but in these days of modern business, with the many new devices for transacting business, we are obliged to go farther. Let us sup- pose the retailer owns his own prop- erty; interest on the value of that prop- erty should be charged just as faithfully as if the landlord called once a month to collect his rent. Or again, we will say that the dozen roses we a^e consid- ering have to be delivered in the sub- urbs; is the depreciation on the truck, the gasoline and the chauffeur's salary considered f There are any number of such items, which, like mice, are gnawing at that $1 margin and every cent which is taken from that dollar is just so much out of the pocket of the one who has to stand the brunt and worry of the business. I could write like this in- definitely, but I am an optimist and I am just as sure that the man referred to in the beginning of this article is going to find where the trouble is and rectify it, as I am that every flower store throughout the country is going to go along with the reconstruction that every business in the world, I might fiay, is undergoing and place the florists' business on the high plane where it be- longs. Auditing and Advancement. Now, assuming that our gross profits will not maintain our organizations, what is to be donef Again the solution is simple. We must either increase our profits or reduce our overhead. If we can do neither of these and are wise, we will close our business. The time is now here when every florist should make it a point to see that he has a system of bookkeeping installed that is as near perfect as it is possible for him to get and then have his books audit- ed from time to time by outsiders. They may be quick to pick up items that fa- miliarity will cause those who are con- stantly working on them to overlook. Some of the largest concerns in our country have done this at regular inter- vals. As I write this, I am reminded of one of the largest ocean transportation companies of this country, whose busi- ness runs into the millions. Each month it has expert accountants audit its books. If such a corporation is so par- ticular, how much more important is it that the florist, no matter how humble his business, should be particular! The principle will apply to the smallest flo- rist in the country as well as to the largest. Take the dozen roses referred to, multiply them b^ any number you see fit and my point will still hold true.

What kind of commercial fertilizer would you recommend for growing let- tuce under glass? We have used a heavy coat of manure, but would like to add a good fertilizer. W. D. & S.— Ind. I do not know of any fertilizer which will in any respect take the place of manure for lettuce under glass. The most successful growers of head lettuce depend on manure entirely. Possibly leaf lettuces of the Curled Simpson type might do fairly well with fertilizer, but even in their case manure would be likely to give much . superior results, particularly where the soil is heavy. The soil that lettuces do best in is a light one, inclined to be sandy, to which liberal applications of manure are made before planting each crop. In such a soft soil the roots will penetrate deeply and the surface will dry out quickly after watering, thus preventing leaf- rot. I would strongly advise you to stick to manure and not to try fer- tilizers at all. Lettuce roots penetrate deeply and usually a watering of the soil before planting will carry a crop through, with the possible exception of one or two light sprayings. The humus in manure and the fact that it holds moisture so long make it far superior to any chemical fertilizer that can be used. C. W. STORING SWEET POTATOES. I would like advice as to the keeping of sweet potatoes for seed. Is it advis- able to use the building over a boiler for such storage, or would the heat from below cause trouble? How many thick- nesses of patent siding should be used in the floor and wall? I shall appreciate any information you can give me on this subject. C. R. K.— O. It would seem unwise to store sweet potatoes over a boiler pit. It might be done, but it would caJl for careful con- struction to exclude the heat, which otherwise would come through the floor and also flow up along the sides of the storage house. The storage houses in most general use both in the north and the south are frame structures built entirely above ground, although there are a few houses in the north that possess a basement or semi-basement story used for the storage of sweet potatoes. L. C. Corbett says that these frame structures are so built that their contents are exposed in the OCTOBIB 30, 1919. The Florists^ Review 19 least possible degree to outside changes of temperature. While the buildings are not insulated, they are provided with paper between the studding and sheet- mg, between the sheeting and the clap- bowrding, and on the inside under the sheeting. In the more exposed situa- tions, either back plaster or a strip of paper is used between the studding in addition to the construction above not- ed. The floors as well as the ceilings are made as nearly frost-proof as possible and to add still greater safety the roots are not placed on the main floor of the building itself, but upon slat floors raised at least two inches off the main floor. Besides adding a factor of safety against frost, these slat floors serve an- other important function, that of facili- tating the distribution of heat through- out the heap of roots during the curing process. The partitions between the bins should also be double-slatted par- titions, in order to act as ventilators or chimneys so that the ventilation of the material in the storage may be insured, as well as more rapid and more uniform curing. The curing of sweet potatoes at har- vest time is of equal importance with a proper storage room, good ventilation and the maintenance of a proper storage temperature subsequently. As the sweet potatoes come from the field, they should be placed in the bins in layers distrib- uted evenly over the surface, and, dur- ing the time the house is being filled and for a period of ten days or more there- after, the temperature of the storage house should be maintained at 85 to 90 degrees Fahrenheit both night and day. After this drying or curing period, the temperature should be gradually reduced, but at no time during the storage period should it fall below 45 degrees. The temperature which has proved most sat- isfactory for holding the roots after the curing period is 50 degrees. While sweet potatoes can be successfully stored in hampers or crates, most commercial stor- ages depend on the use of bins with slat floors separated by hollow slat parti- tions. MONSTEBA DXTBIA IN BLOOM. . Still a Botanical Puzzle. According to the Latin, the plant shown in the illustration on this page has been called both paradoxical and doubtful; it has well earned both titles. Its trade name and scientific name was originally Marcgravia paradoxa, though it was also called M. dubia by Kunth. When it was introduced by Bull, it was shown growing on a board apparently in parasitic fashion, emitting aerial roots. It then seemed most like a marc- gravia, but when it flowered and fruited, the first name was found to be incorrect, since marcgravia is a dicotyledon, while monstera is a monocotyledon. So it was named Monstera acuminata or M. tenuis by C. Koch. Finally, Engler and Krause have called it Monstera dubia. Yet another botanist may sometime remove from its name that stain of uncertainty. Shows Leaf Dimoiphlsm. One of the claims of Monstera dubia, or shingle plant, as it is called, to the term paradoxa is the striking dimor- phism of its leaves. The leaves of the young plant are a few inches long, waxy, entire and heart-shapvd. The mature leaves are much longer and usually pin- natifid, though sometimes perforated ■",'..

Have You a Bioomiog Moostera in Your Greenhouse? like those of the more common M. deli- ciosa. First Bloom In Twenty-six Years. In its young stage Monstera dubia is a handsome greenhouse climber, being generally allowed to clamber over a dead log or tree-fern trunk, in the manner of philodendron. The monster leaves be- gin to develop when it has reached about fifteen feet. In the illustration, the ma- ture perforated leaves can easily be seen, but evidently the wandering pro- clivities of the monstera have been re- strained. The prime novelty, however, of this particular plant, which is on exhibition at the greenhouses of M. Froehlich, 5527 West Walton street, Chicago, is the bloom, said by Mr. Froehlich to be the first one that it has produced in the twenty-six years of his firm's existence. The densely flowered spadix and the flower-like spathe of this distinctive species are both clearly shown. Its Culture Like Philodendron. Monstera is easily propagated by di- vision of the growing stems, which can be cut up into lengths so as to include two or three joints and placed in a prop- agating bed with bottom heat of 75 to 80 degrees. In general method of cul- ture, the monstera resembles the philo- dendron. During the summer time it should be given plenty of water to keep up its vigorous growth, also much liquid feeding if it is wanted to ramble over a large area, but during the winter months the plant is in a dormant condition and the water supply should be lessened. These plants are little troubled by in- sects and the leaves are of such a tex- ture as to stand syringing enough to dislodge any pests that may appear. They should have plenty of ventilation and during the hottest part of the sum- mer a little shade to hold the foliage in good color. Such a plant attracts a great deal of attention in greenhouses where it is grown. CALIFOBinA FUCHSIA. In The Eeview of October 16 I note that a correspondent asks for the botan- ical name of the California fuchsia. The plant in question is Zauschneria califor- nica and is a half-hardy perennial from the state for which it is named.

There are three reasons for putting important contracts in writing. One is that in the great majority of cases the statute of frauds requires it. Another is the increased definiteness and cer- tainty that come from putting the agreement in written form; you no longer have to depend upon the memory for its terms. The third reason is that it enables you to get the benefit that comes from the enforcement of the pa- rol evidence rule. If the contract is oral, it must be proved by parol evidence. The court must depend upon the testimony of witnesses. Evidence of everything that was said and done, of all the circum- stances connected with the case, includ- ing the preliminary negotiations, will be admitted by the court in its effort to determine whether there was a con- tract and what it was. Furthermore, what was said and done are questions of fact to be passed upon by the jury, and this brings in an additional ele- ment of uncertainty. When the contract is partly written and partly oral, the two parts must be construed together. You have some advantage from the written part. But the door is open for parol evidence and a trial by jury before the court has an opportunity to pass upon what the con- tract means. But the moment you reduce the entire contract to writing, you shut out all parol evidence. The writing speaks for itself, and if it has been properly drawn, so that it is clear and unambiguous, what it means is considered :i question of law to be decided by the court. Parol Evidence Rule. The parol evidence rule, for our pres- ent purposes, may be stated as follows: A written contract or agreement can- not be contradicted, altered, added to, or varied, by parol or extrinsic evidence. In this sense parol evidence is any other evidence, whether oral or written, than the written instrument itself. There are a number of seeming ex- ceptions to this rule. An examination of them shows that they are not excep- tions at all. Consider the following ex- ceptions and observe that in reality they are cases which do not come within the rule: 1. Evidence may be admitted to show that there is no agreement at all. 2. Evidence may be admitted to aid the court in determining the meaning of the contract; that is, to aid in cop- struction. An Aid to the Court. This evidence is not admitted for the purpose of changing the contract, but to assist the court in determining what it means. Evidence of thfe usages of business or trade is often admissible, where well established, to show the meaning of words that have a peculiar use in connection with that business and to place the court in a better posi- tion to understand the language used. But there is one point in this connec- tion that should be cautioned against. Where words are clear and unambigu- ous, the court will not permit one of the parties to introduce evidence to show that they were intended to mean some- thing different. Words are to be un- derstood in their ordinary and popular sense, unless there is a good reason for understanding them otherwise. If scientific or technical words are used, the testimony of experts may be intro- duced to show their meaning. 3. Evidence may be introduced to show the terms of collateral agreements not inconsistent with the original con- tract and of subsequent agreements whether consistent with the original contract or not. Rule on Receipts. 4. There is one written instrument to which the parol evidence rule does not apply — ordinary receipts. The law on this subject is clearly stated in the following quotation from Parsons on Contracts: A receipt for money is peculiarly open to evi- dence. It is only prima facie evidence either that the sum stated baa been paid or that any sum whatever was paid. It is in fact not re- Karde,4 as a contract and hardly as an Instru- all, and has but little more force than admlBsion of the party receiving. But ^true only of a simple receipt. It often that a paper wbici) contains a receipt, tu the receiving of money or of goods, ' also terms, conditions, and agreementl), or astf^nments. Such an instrument, as to every- thing"4)*it the receipt, is no more to be affected by extrinsic evidence than if it did not contain the receipt; but as to the receipt itself, it may be varied or contradicted by extrinsic testimony, in the same manner as if it contained nothing else. You are not to infer from this that receipts are useless, for they serve a valuable purpose. At the beginning of the quotation given above it was stated that a receipt is prima facie evidence that the money has been paid. It raises a strong presumption of payment when it is introduced in evidence and thereby places upon the person who gave it, the burden of proving by clear and convinc- ing evidence that it does not speak the truth.

Under separate cover T am sending a chrysanthemum flower. Please tell me what is wrong. The plant seems to be in healthy condition, laut when the bud is about half open the outer petals turn brown and have a wilted appearance. The bud develops no further. I have had this trouble mostly with Smith 's Advance and Golden Glow. Also, small spiders weave a web over all the buds at night. Ts there any- thing that will destrov them? C. R. W.— la. The chrysanthemum flower was badly infested with thrips and, as you men- tion the fact of the buds being covered with a web, this indicates the presence of red spider. You must have failed in the regular spraying of the plants with the nicotine extracts, or the thrips would not have got ahead of you. Now that the blooms are opening, it is going to be diflRcult to clean them out. Owing to the warm weather when the early varieties are opening, the thrips and reil spider are more troublesome on these than they are on the later sorts. When the weather becomes cooler, the thrips can be kept under better control. Regular spraying with the nicotine extract about once in ten days during the plants' growing season and up to the time the buds commence to show color, generally keeps the thrips and red spider in check, but if there still are signs of the pest on the flowers when they are opening, the most ef- fective means of getting rid of it is to spray up underneath the buds and flowers with a fine spray of the nico- tine extract. Then, when the weather becomes cool enough so that a little steam can be used, fumigate with the extract by evaporation from one of the steam pipes. A little sulphur placed on one of the steam pipes when in use will also help to keep the thrips and red spider in check. A weak spray of salt water will also clean out the red spider, but unless great care is exercised not to get it too strong it will brown up the petals. A high temperature with wet conditions at the roots of the plant and a damp atmosphere about the house will cause the petals to spot and brown. Avoid these conditions as much as possible and ventilate the house freely. M. P. SKIPPERS ON MUMS. I am sending you some chrysanthe- mum buds that appear to have been stung by some insect. Please tell us what does the damage and what the remedy is. More than a month ago, some of the tops stopped growing, then made breaks again. Some have stopped several times. They have good roots and made good growth, but the flowers that come are one-sided and are absolutely no good. I have grown mums for twenty years, but have never seen anything like it. They have completely destroyed our bed of Unaka, while in the next bed Oconto is about ten per cent bad. The only insects I have seen are the black and white flies, the miller which hatches the green worm that eats the The trouble is caused by the tarnished plant bug, or skipper, as it is commonly called. This bug closely resembles the lady-bug, so that you may have mistaken it for that insect. It is especially de- structive to the young, tender shoots and biids of chrysanthemums and works by stinging the side of the growths or buds. It works also in the blooms, sap- ping the texture out of the petals, caus- ing them to spot. Unfortunately, we do not know of any sure means of com- bating this pest, for the reason that it comes in from the outside, being particu- larly destructive to asters. We have had a great deal of trouble from these bugs this year and one method of fight: ing them is to keep the plants regularly sprayed with the nicotine extracts; we might almost say, continually sprayed, because we allow few days to pass be- tween sprayings on our plants during the growing season. At our range we use a fine force spray for the purpose. Then we keep a close watch on the plants for any wilting of the young growth and, as soon as this is noticeable, the plant is examined; if we are quick enough, we generally manage to catch the bugs, but they are artful and lively and, as soon as they see anyone after them, they hide away under the foliage. Some seasons they are a great deal worse than others, but the writer does not recall a year when they were as bad as they are this year. Our asters have suffered badly from them. M. P.

Will you kindly tell me the proper amount of bone meal to use on beds of carnations and roses T We are anxious to get it right, yet we are rather un- certain as to just how much should be used on a bench 4z46 feet. C. F. Co.— Miss. You do not state whether you are just planting or whether your plants are established in the benches. We do not mix bone with our soil at plant- ing time, but rose growers do. A 4-inch potful to each wheelbarrow of soil 18 about the right proportion to use for roses. For feeding carnations we use about a 3-inch potful to each row across a 5-foot bench. If you have a mulch of manure on the bench, it will serve to prevent the bone from wash- ing when you water it in. If there is no mulch, you should scratch the bone into the soil before you water. Unless your soil is deficient in phosphoric acid, you should either alternate the bone with sheep manure or, still better, use one of the complete carnation fertiliz- ers. If your plants are growing vigor- ously and need feeding, a light appli- cation of complete fertilizer every three weeks will do no harm. Be care- ful, however, when dark weather sets in, as little feeding is wanted unless there is a moderate amount of sun- shine. Toward spring, when the sun begins to climb, the plants will need it and there is not much danger of overdoing it. A. F. J. B. DISEASED CABNATION STEMS. I am sending a sample of diseased carnation stems to see if you can sug- gest a remedy or preventive. There first appear brown spots on stem or leaf, which spread till the stem is encircled; then the top wilts. Usually it starts in the leaf socket. My soil is quite sandy. I have used manure, potash, bone meal and sulphate of ammonia. The climate here, south Georgia, has been humid, hot and rainy all summer. The side bench, farthest from the ventilators, is the worst affected. Would any fungicide help them? W. A. D.— Ga. The disease your carnations are af- fected with is one of the carnation spot diseases and is one of the most serious of this class of diseases. The fact that it works chiefly on the stems makes it diflicult to reach with the spray. It is brought on by a humid and probably foul atmospheric condition, which is more likely to prevail in your hot south- ern climate than in our northern lati- tude. The excessive rains during the summer were undoubtedly directly to blame for this condition. Cut away every affected branch you can find. Then spray the plants thoroughly with Bordeaux mixture. Keep this up until you get control, by which time the weather will probably" be cooler and you will have no trouble in keeping a bracing, dry atmosphere in your houses. As soon as you can run a little fire, it will help, especially if you will paint one of the pipes with a mixture con- sisting of equal parts of sulphur and Ume, mixed with enough water to make a thick paint. A. F. J. B. NOT TOO MUCH MANX7BE. Can you tell us what to use with blood and bone to make a complete carnation fertilizer, the proportions to use, how much to 100 square feet of bench and how often to apply! We are using soil with which no manure has been mixed. It is a good black loam and works easily, however. We raked in blood and bone before the plants were set and have given one feeding since. They look fine so far. L. P. & S.— HI. While you do not state when your carnations were planted in the bench and I therefore cannot form any opin< ion as to how well established they may be, yet I feel constrained to caution you against too liberal feeding this early in the season. If you were using a prop- erly prepared soil, I would say hold off the feeding for a time. In the bone and blood you have nitrogen and phos- phoric acid principally. To complete it, you might add wood ashes or ground limestone. I would, however, advise you to make every effort to procure some cattle or stable manure and to apply a mulch before giving any more of the commercial manures. It will not only be good for your plants for the food it contains, but it will also assist you in applying the other ma- terial. By sprinkling it on the manure, you will have an excellent medium for preventing washing when you water it in. If your plants are growing vigor- ously, the mulch will probably be all they will need until after the holidays. The natural fertility of the soil may be sufScient until the roots have worked through it and exhausted it somewhat. By the time the crop comes on, you will be able to determine what may be lack- ing. If the growth is slow, give them nitrogen in the form of dried blood or sheep manure. Some growers use tank- age. If the stems are weak, an appli- cation of ground limestone will help to stiffen them. If the blooms are small and lack substance, the bone might help. But first of all, get some manure and mulch them. A. F. J. B.

Please be kind enough to inform us what has been a fair estimate on depre- ciation of greenhouses yearly, in filling out income tax returns. We believe we saw in The Review that it varied from ten to* twenty per cent. Also, please in- form us whether the Commissioner of Internal Bevenue has, under Section 328 of the present income tax law, figured the percentage which the tax on repre- sentative corporations engaged in the florists' business bears to their net in- come. If so, please send us copy of that ruling of the commissioner or inform us how to obtain it. B. B. C. — Ind. Would any owner of greenhouses sug- gest that the houses would depreciate so that in from five to ten years they would have no value? The income tax law provides that "a reasonable allowance for the exhaustion, wear and tear of property used in the trade or business" may be deducted. The instructions for filling in the return of taxable income state: "The amount claimed for wear and tear or depreciation should not ex- ceed the original cost of the property (or its value March 1, 1913, if acquired before that date) divided by its total estimated life in years. When the amount of depreciation allowed equals the cost of the property (or its value March 1, 1913) no further claim should be made." The schedule for the return of cor- poration incomes requires (schedule A 18): Submit a colnmnar scbedale containlngr. In tbe most practical form, aabstantlally the following Information: 1. A classiOcatlon of depreciable asaeta snb- dirided on the basis of (a) character, (b) term of useful life. 2. The fair marlcet Talue of such assets March 1, 1913, if acquired before that date. 8. The cost of such assets if acquired after February 28, 1913. 4. The estimated life or term of reasonable usefulness of such assets from date acquired or from March 1, 1913, as the case requires. Olre reasons for your conclusions. 6. For each class of assets state: (a) The total amount of depreciation from March 1, 1913, to the beginning of the taxable year, (b) The total amountof depreciation claimed for the tax- able year. The plain intent of the law and the regulations is to allow greenhouse own- ers, like other taxpayers, to deduct the actual depreciation on their buildings, but no more. The Internal Revenue Department has indicated its idea of the expectation of life of various classes of buildings, but these are not a part of the law or regu- lations and if they do not cover special cases, due allowances are made. The department thinks four per cent will cover the depreciation on well-built greenhouse structures, but there seems to have been no action taken where flo- rists have claimed higher depreciation. The Review never has suggested that it should be ten to twenty per cent. There are plenty of greenhouses which are 20 to 25 3'ears old still producing profitable crops. One point the florist should not over- look is that when he has claimed depre- ciation aggregating 100 per cent of the cost of his buildings, no further allow- ance for depreciation can be claimed.

They bring with them the income tax schedules filed since the first income tax law went into effect and check over sev- eral years' returns at one time. Section 328 of the income tax law ap- plies only where the Commissioner of Internal Bevenue is unable to determine the invested capital of a corporation. Thus far no rulings have been published showing the relation of the tax to the net incomes of representative corpora- tions in any line of business and it is not likely that such figures ever will be published, for the reason that the effort of the Commissioner of Internal Beve- nue is to apply the law in its ex- act relations to the figures of the in- dividual taxpayer. If you wish further information as applied to your individ- ual case, address the Commissioner of Internal Bevenue, Washington, D. C. USINOEB'S UTTERANCES. L. B. Taft, of the Michigan Agricul- tural College, is looking up stray plants of the dangerous barberry, Mahonia Aquifolium, in Bay City and Saginaw, Mich. He found a few in both cities. Professor Taft says, "The state of Michigan is quickly getting rid of this dangerous shrub. The state department has the hearty cooperation of the people in this work, and except in isolated dis- tricts the work is almost over." • • • • The Saginaw florists are preparing for a chrysanthemum show, November 10. Although the plans are not quite com- plete, the date and place are settled. The ballroom of the Hotel Bancroft will be the place. An invitation has been extended to the growers of Bay City to display their stock. From present indications the show will be a success, horticulturally speaking, as the Saginaw greenhouses are in their glory. • • • • Hasselbring's, of Flint, Mich., are cutting some Una mama and carnations; the cut is unusually heavy for this sea- son, and, considering the scarcity of the market, this is a fortunate condi- tion. • • • • Arthur MacKinnon, of Flint, is re- modeling his store and greenhouses. Business is reported better than ever. • • • • The D. P. Smith Floral Co., of Flint, is showing excellent mums. Darwin Smith is taking a vacation preparatory to a visit to the Pacific coast; the "Co." is doing the work, which is reported brisk. • • • • "The call of the woods" is making Carl Roethke, of the Wm. Roethke Floral Co., Saginaw, restless. The lure of the big outdoors and the temptation to get out into it is strong, but busi- ness will not let him. The scarcity of labor and the need of a good store man is the reason. • • • • Harry E. Saier, of Lansing, recently moved into his new store on North Michigan avenue. It is beautifully dec- orated and furnished. He had an un- usually fine display of pottery and wil- lowware, which sold easily. • • • • J. A.

MBS. E. A. WILLIAMS. PITTSBURGH has good reason to be proud of its native daughter, Mrs. E. A. _^ Williams, as anyone who has seen her store or done business with her well knows. She began her business career at 1713 Carson street, south side, but a few years later, in the spring of 1900, she moved downtown to 621 Penn avenue, where she has been now for almost two decades. In addition to the store, she has a fine range of greenhouses on the south side. For the last twenty years she has had the valuable assistance, as manager, of Harvey C. Sheaff. He received his training with two pioneers in the trade, John R. and Alexander Murdoch, who retired in 1896 after most successful careers. In private life Mrs. Williams is known as Mrs. J. H. Junker, having married Mr. Junker a few years ago. He is a representative business man dealing in wholesale leather. neral brought him to work. Mr. Bis- singer has the sympathy of the trade and their hope for a quick return to his former good health. • • • • The Lansing Floral Co., of Lansing, Mich., is cutting some excellent mums and the first snapdragons are coming. • • * • The Beyer Floral Shop, of South Bend, Ind., has been busy with design work. • • • • Boehringer Bros., of Bay City, Mich., are enjoying an usually busy fall sea- son. The repairs of greenhouses are finished and some fine stock is being sent to the store. W. T. U. DETEOIT, MICH. The Market. With the brighter and warmer weather, the stock increased greatly and thereby kept up with the increase in retail business. American Beauties are selling well. Other roses are in good demand, especially the grades selling at $6, $8 and $10 per hundred. Premier and Columbia are a bit off crop and only a small quantity of them has arrived. Ophelia is more plentiful and of fine quality; all grades are going well. Shawyer is alone in being in oversupply; its tendency to open too soon overbal- ances its wonderful color and quality and therefore it is not so good a seller and is inclined to stock up a bit. Last week chrysanthemums, including pompons, arrived in greatly increased numbers and the demand has equaled the supply. Chrysolora and Early Frost of all grades clear quickly; the same is true of a new bronze-colored mum reach- ing the market. Maud Dean is of poor quality, being quite single and weak of stem; there is, however, a fair demand for it. Wm. Turner of large size but weak stem is finding a slow retail de- mand. Pompons sell readily and a great number are moved each day. In the ■f; ir-TT^-.^.V 24 The Florists^ Review OCTOBIR 80, 1919. latter part of the week all varieties were in supply. Carnations are scarce, the supply be- ing about the same as that last reported, but the demand is greater. Conse- quently the price rose to $8 per hun- dred. The few sweet peas being cut are sold readily, but the general demand for them is a bit slow. Violets are selling better, filling in with the scarcity of corsage stock. Or- chids are also in increased demand. Cosmos of both the single and double varieties is arriving in great quantities, with a large share of it finding the buyer. Calendulas also are more plen- tiful and finding a ready market. Other garden flowers, such as larkspur, corn- flowers, candytuft and tritomas, are to be had. Maidenhair fern and asparagus fern have shortened up in supply, being quite scarce at times. Bowling Club Meets.

The opening of Finsterwald 's furni- ture store in the new 10-story building called for many baskets of chrvsanthe- mums, American Beauties and other rosea. E. A. Fetters had the decorations for the opening of the new Orchestra hall and the first night of the Detroit Sym- phony orchestra. He made extensive use of American Beauties and chrysan- themums. At the funerals of Alexan- der Ingcrsoll Lewis, Leonard Sales and his sister Frances, whose deaths were the result of ptomaine poisoning, the floral offerings were many and elaborate. The L. Bemb Floral Co., of 153 Bates street, has an attractive window dis- play consisting of a wedding carried out with kewpie dolls. This firm is adver- tising Its bulbs on all its delivery cars. George Davis, of Lincoln avenue re- ports a rush of funeral work, also a demand for blooming plants. J. F. Sullivan has returned from an eastern trip, on which he visited the trade in New York. George Doemling, of Mount Clemens, 18 growing Rhea Keids which have good color and size. Last week W. .T. Vesey, Fort Wavne, Tnd., shipped in some exceptionally large Chrysolora to the local markets, also some of Poehlmann's large white and a white shaded with pink. John Moore, manager of John Breit- nieyer's Sons' Woodward avenue store, has a new Stutz car. Oscar Strand's new store, in the Book building, is featuring a tree made of magnolia leaves. . John Breitmeyer, of Mount Clemens, is bringing in choice pompons. His car- nations give promise of a high quality cut later on. Charles Plumb, of Burns avenue, is erecting nine additional greenhouses. Eobert Plumb, who has been ill, is again on the job. Summerfield & Heckt, a local furni- ture firm, held a fern sale recently and sold 6-inch and 7-inch stock worth 50 cents to $1 at wholesale for 39 cents, although there has been a scarcity of Boston ferns. Last week visitors to the trade in- cluded Mr. Flanders, of Ann Arbor, Mich., who has recently opened a new shop there; Mr. Friedman, of Chicago, and Philip Foley, of the Foley Green- . house Mfg. Co., Chicago. Mr. Castle, a member of the Detroit Florists' Club, has lost his wife. He has the trade's deepest sympathy. H. T. BOSTON. The Market. The increasing arrivals of chrysan- themums, added to the continued labor unrest, have had a weakening influence on the flower market the last few days. Boston and Massachusetts have an im- portant election in a few days, a con- test in which the supporters of law, order and decent government are squarely arrayed against those of un- rest and bolshevism. A sweeping vic- tory for the former element will do more than anything else to give the cut flower trade a fillip. Roses have weakened considerably. In fact, their value has been practically cut in halves. Such varieties as Pre- mier, Columbia, Hadley and Francis Scott Key continue to sell well, but the Killarneys have dragged. Carnations have declined in the same proportion as roses and few flowers now sell above $3 per hundred. The quality of the flowers is now good and the stems ex- cellent. Matchless, Pink Delight and Ward seem to be the most popular in their respective colors, with Benora alone as a variegated and Beacon, Belle Washburn, Eureka, Merry Christmas and Aviator each with their champions among scarlets. Some double as well as single violets are coming in. There are also excellent pansies, which sell readily. Bouvardia in several colors sells well. Lilies are temporarily quite scarce. Chrysanthe- mums now overshadow all other flowers. Small flowers sell cheaply, but the av- erage single-stomined blooms sell at $12 to $25 and some fancies higher. The old, reliable Bonnaffon has already ap- peared. It remains the most popular mum on the market. White and Pink Chieftain are also popular, as are pom- pons. Snapdragons with quite short stems sell well. There is little valley seen and the few gardenias arriving sell at $0 per dozen. Cattleya labiata is plentiful and selling more reasonably. A fair supply of cyp- rijjodiums and other ordiida are also coming in. Pot chrysanthemums are excellent this season. These and cycla- mens are the most popular flowering plants at present, with crotons and ferns coming next in favor. Club Meeting. There was a large and enthusiastic attendance at the meeting of the Gar- deners' and Florists' Club, October 21, no less than 115 members being present. Six new members were elected. The sum of $25 was voted to the committee on public safety for the benefit of the loyal police and state guards now pre- serving order in Boston. Exhibits were numerous and of fine quality. Awards were made as follows: Wollrath & Sons, specimen cyclamen of remarkable size and quality, awarded a cultural report of merit; handsome ])ans of Rex begonias from the same ex- hibitors received a vote of thanks; F. E. Palmer, vases of Early Snow and Halli- day mums, vote of thanks; Carnation Ethel Fisher (Red Cross) from Peter Fisher, vote of thanks; Lselioeattleya Canhamiana Rex, from L. D. Towle, honorable mention; Laeliocattleya Ser- bia, from L. D. Towle, report of mer- it; standard pelargonium, A. Ricard, Chrysanthemums Mrs. Gilson and Mrs. P. Mitchell, from Walter H. Golby, vote of thanks; grand flowers of Chrysanthe- mum Nag-ir-roc, from the same exhib- itor, cultural report of merit. Mr. Gol- by also received honorable mentions for Solanum Cleveland, lettuces and a col- lection of pears, apples and quinces, and a report of merit for Cattleya Man- tini. W. N. Craig received honorable men- tion for a large collection of apples and pears, votes of thanks for Sunrise to- mato and Dobbie 's Selected parsley, and honorable mention for Sutton 's Plenti- ful bean. A. K. Rogers received hon- orable mention for a collection of apples, pears and quinces, and H. F. Schafer honorable mention for pears. Answering inquiries about cyclamens, Mr. Wollrath said seed from which his large plants were grown was sown in August, 1918. He had sold twenty-four plants like those exhibited, to be de- livered a little later, at $17.50 each, wholesale. These cyclamens were the most remarkable ever shown here at this season and all were from American seed, which Wollrath 's consider better than the European. Prof. J. G. Jack, of the Arnold Arbo- retum, delivered a most interesting il- lustrated lecture on the beauty of na- tive trees and shrubs in flower and fruit, which held the attention of his audience for one and one-half hours, and an- swered some questions at the close. Some suggested changes in the by-laws were adopted, with one exception, which was referred back to the special committee. It was announced that November 18 the annual nominations of officers would take place. Cooperative Flower Market Banquet. The annual meeting and dinner of the Boston Cooperative Flower Market was held at the Arlington hotel, Saturday evening, October 18. Over 100 members and ladies were in attendance. Two changes were made in tlie board of directors, Alexander J. Montgomery be- ing elected to fill the vacancy caused by the death of his father, Robert Mont- gomery, and Edward Wood succeeding Elijah Cartwright. The annual report OCTOBBR 30, 1919. The Rorists^ Review 25 showed the corporation to be in a pros- perous condition. William H. Elliott presided at the postprandial exercises and after an ad- dress of welcome called upon Albert E. Robinson, of the Breck-Robinson Co.; B. Hammond Tracy; Mr. Lamont, Quid- nick, R. I., and others for remarks. An orchestra furnished music during the evening, which proved to be an extreme- ly pleasant one. Boston Flower Exchange Banquet. The Boston Flower Exchange held its annual meeting at Young's hotel, Oc- tober 25. The same board of directors was elected and a ten per cent dividend declared to stockholders. Considering the trying conditions of the last year, the financial report was an excellent one. Over 100 members attended the annual banquet, which proved to be an excellent one. A splendid orchestra and lady soloist and reader furnished enter- tainment during the evening. William C. Stickel, presi-dent of the corporation, acted as toastmaster. Henry Penn, president of the Boston Florists' Association, was the first speaker and he gave an excellent talk on flower publicity. Incidentally he expressed the hope that the time was not far distant when the flower inter- ests of Boston would own and do busi- ness in one large building. He urged everyone to do his utmost to make Armistice week a memorable one in cut flower circles. Gustave Thomann boomed flower publicity and predicted a pros- perous year for the trade. W. N. Craig extolled Theodore Roosevelt and the stand taken on the police strike by Gov- ernor Coolidge and Police Commissioner Curtis before referring to other subjects. He offered resolutions commending the attitude of the governor and police com- missioner, which were unanimously adopted. William H. Elliott, president of the Boston Cooperative Flower Market, com- mended President Wilson 's attitude and also proved an apt story teller. Reso- lutions were unanimously adopted com- mending the president's efforts in the cause of peace at home and abroad and in the formation of a league of nations, also sympathizing with President Wil- son in his illness and wishing him a speedy recovery. The evening proved to be a pleasant and enjoyable one. The tables were all well decorated with the choicest flowers in season. Various Notes. W. D. Howard, of Milford, is one of our most successful carnation growers. He has one superb house of Matchless. Other leaders with him are Pink Delight and Ward. Eureka and Belle Washburn are grown as scarlets and Bernice, to be introduced the coming season, as a crimson. The last named is a beautiful crimson, free, and sure to prove a valu- able commercial variety. J. W. Simpson, of Woburn, is cutting some extra fine White Chieftain mums. He grows Bonnaffon heavily and finds it the most profitable of all mums. In car- nations he is growing Pink Delight, Matchless, Benora and Red Benora. J. T. Butterworth has a fine crop of cattleyas at present. Last week he had twenty-seven cattleya and la?liocat- tleya hybrids in bloom. His large cym- bidium collection looks remarkably well. One plant of C. Sandenp is throwing up seven spikes. Zygopetalums also arc flowering profusely. PUNCH PRODS PUBLIC •"4)//' Profiteer's Wife: "Have all flowers got Latin names?" Florist: "Yes. madam." Profiteer's Wife: "Even the common ones?" Florist: "Yes. madam." Profiteer's Wife: "Ain't nature wonderful?" The Budlong Rose Co., Auburn, R. I., is growing some excellent mums this season. Prominent among them are Chieftain, Golden Queen, Oconto and Pacific Supreme. Out of a large variety of roses, Francis Scott Key, Ophelia, Russell, Columbia and Double White Killarney are the best. The company is also cutting some gardenias. Many members of the flower trade visited the cemetery at Montvale, Mass., October 25, on the occasion of the unveiling of a monument to Nathan Lerner, formerly salesman at the Flower Exchange, who died during the influenza wave a year ago. The board of trustees of the Massa- chusetts Horticultural Society at a meet- •ng held October 20 unanimously awarded the George R. White tnedal of honor for 1919 to VilmorinAndricux & Co., of Paris, France, for distinguished services rendered to horticulture. The week of November 11, Armistice week, will Re celebrated as Flower week in Boston. All retailers are endeavor- ing to make the occasion a memorable and profitable one for the flower trade. In Penn 's windows, October 25, was a large photograph of Theodore Roose- velt; also a personal letter sent to Penn's in 1907, on an occasion when they forwarded some flowers to him when visiting Provincetown in com- pany with the late Governor Curtis Guild. Numerous subscriptions were taken at the store for the Roosevelt memorial fund. In the windows of Wax Bros., October 25, were some handsome large bunches of pansies and violets, in which this firm specializes, as well as a fine assort- ment of other fiowers. Business here has been extremely good of late. From the Quidnick Greenhouses, Quid- nick, R. I., are coming some fine Prima Donna, Russell and Double White Kil- larney roses. The Gardeners' and Florists* Club will have an orchid night November 18, with a lecture by an expert and numer- ous exhibits of orchids, as well as of late mums, fruits and vegetables. In the windows of the Houghton-Gor- ney Co., last week, were some nice baskets of nerines in several colors, snapdragons and bouvardias. One win- dow was entirely devoted to crotons. William H. Elliott has nearly 5,000 pot chrysanthemums this season and they are remarkably well grown and profusely flowered. They are low, bushy and entirely without supports. These plants are planted outdoors and potted in 8-inch to 10-inch pots. C. P. Sweetser, until lately local repre- sentative of the Davey Tree Expert Co., now has a responsible position with the Equitable Life Insurance Co., New York. Among the committees appointed for the Massachusetts Horticultural Society for 1920 are the following: Prizes and exhibitions, Thomas Allen, chairman, Duncan Finlayson, T. D.

Signs of decided activity are being seen daily in the wholesale market. Good quality indoor stock is arriving in increasing quantity froio all growers and the outlook is most satisfactory. The prices are good, but of course they cannot be compared with those of last year, as there were unusual conditions at that time. The market is well filled with a gorgeous array of chrysanthe- mums. Handsome stock is seen in Yel- low Turner, Queen, Pink Chieftain, Oconto, Unaka, October Frost, Pacific Supreme, Smith's Advance and Golden Glow, Pompons in yellow, bronze, red, white, pink and lavender are arriving in fair supply. The supply of carna- tions is also on the increase and they are of good quality, being longer in stem and with fair-sized blooms. Fair prices prevail. There are still a few outdoor flowers coming in, including gladioli, delphinium, larkspur, candytuft and some cosmos. Gladioli, considering the lateness of the season, are of good quality and the demand is satisfactory, A good supply of roses of all kinds is arriving, including Columbia, Ward, Ophelia, Hoosier Beauty, Russell, Had- ley. Premier, Sunburst, Killarney and White Killarney. American Beauties receive a fair demand and their quality is good. Cecile Brunner is plentiful and sells well, Cattleyas are exceptionally good now and sell nicely; they reach us in excellent condition, Violets are improving each week, but so far the demand is not large. Calendulas and bachelor's buttons are meeting a good demand. Excellent potted pompons, large mums, primulas, cyclamens and cherries are seen and sell well. There has been a large demand of late for southern smilax. Other greens are plentiful and find a satisfactory de- mand. Various Notes, The Rosery Flower Shop, of which E, Kendig, of Oswego, was the proprietor, is now dismantled and most of the stock is sold. The pressure of business in Oswego compels Mr. Kendig to dis- continue business in this city, Louis Collates, of South Clinton street, reports excellent business dur- ing October. His store and windows are always attractive and at this time he has an excellent display of mums. Salter Bros., at their East Main street store, are showing a large number of vases, baskets and bowls nicely arranged with gypsophila and helichrysums, us- ing Japanese air fern as the necessary green. Max the Florist, on Lyell avenue, continues to be quite busy with funeral work, which includes many designs and baskets. Visitors last week included Wm, B, Leipzig, of A. Leipzig, Inc, New York, and the representative of the Mono- Service Co., New York. At the Lamberton conservatories, in Highland park, a beautiful display of large chrysanthemums and pompons is being shown. With this is a unique col- lection of tropical plants and cacti, which excites great interest. J. B. Keller Sons had a beautiful win- dow display of yellow and white chrys- anthemums for the week-end, with sev- eral large bowls of exquisite pansies. Palms and cibotium ferns made an ex- cellent background. Mrs. Ehles, of George B. Hart's oflSce force, has returned from a week's vaca- tion, part of which was spent with her parents in the country. H. J. H. TORONTO, ONT. Club Meeting. Arrangements for the big horticul- tural exhibition to be held in the trans- portation building at the Canadian Na- tional Exhibition, November 11 to 15, occupied most of the evening at the regular meeting of the Gardeners' and Florists' Association. Sir John Eaton gave the association a trophy for two years' competition, Charles Tidy and James King will act at the show as judges of the flowers and plants. The association appointed a number of critics, who will visit the show and report on the features at the next meet- ing. Their reports will be kept on hand to assist in bettering the future flower shows. The southern part of the building will be under the direction of the Toronto Retail Florists' Club. At their meeting October 27 final arrangements were made for their part of the show. The prize money will be paid to the club for decorations. It is understood that the individual members will contribute the flowers, while the club will carry on per- sistent advertising of the greatest flower exhibition held in Toronto, greater than the large one of 1913, Daily changes of flowers will be made. Proper floral dec- orations will be shown in large rooms for dining, living, sun and bridal rooms. This will be something unique. There is great enthusiasm being shown and the fact that the annual mum show is being merged with this greater undertaking will add to the interest in it by the pub- lic as well as the florists. The Gardeners' and Florists' Associa- tion passed a resolution of condolence to be sent to the widow of the late Her- man A. Simmers. Mr. Simmers was one of the charter members and an active worker for the association. He was honorary treasurer of the C. H. A. con- vention committee which finished with a surplus and was also honorary treas- urer of the coming exhibition. It was with regret that it was necessary to fill his place. In his review of the trade papers, Chas. King drew attention to the neces- sity of reading the advertisements and the market reports. Only in this way could gardeners and florists purchase their bulbs, plants and supplies to ad- vantage. He also said to watch the pa- pers carefully, for they frequently bloomed forth with excellent articles giving invaluable information. Speak- ing of the discussions on Quarantine 37 in the various American papers, he said he hoped such laws would not be passed in Canada, for they would seriously aif- feet trade. Various Notes. Charles K. Cooper has opened a shop on King street. For eight years Mr. Cooper was with H, G, Dillemuth and previous to that he was at Dunlop's. The store is all finished in white. W. Powell has taken a position with Mr. Cooper. Mr. Kellam. of the Nova Scotia Nurs- ery Co., Halifax, was a recent caller on the trade in Toronto. After visiting friends here he will tour the United States. . J. J. H. San Antonio, Tex. — Green the Florist has opened a shop at Avenue C and Eighth street. He is one of the increas- ing number of florists who are closed on Sundays, Centralia, 111. — J. W. Boss opened a retail store October 1, located in the heart of town. He has 22,000 feet of glass and twenty-three acres of land, on which he is installing the Skinner irri- gation system to protect asters and gla- dioli from drought. Mr, Ross believes strongly in Centralia as a shipping point, since nine railroads lead from here and the time is only two and one-half hours to St, Louis and two to Chicago, Yankton, S, D, — The Gurney Green- house Co. next summer will build a large modern range on the 20-acre tract re- cently purchased, next to the North- western and Milwaukee tracks, inside the city limits. The company intends to put up about 100,000 square feet of glass. The houses will be used for roses and carnations. The company now has about 25,000 square feet, which will be moved to the new place. It also operates the old Newberry place, at Mitchell. Reading, Pa. — At a recent meeting of the Reading Florists ' Association at the residence of Harry F. Heck, Wyomiss- ing, plans were discussed for a flower show to be held sometime in November. Provo, Utah.— The Quality Floral Co. has recently been incorporated by local business men and will open its store be- fore the end of the month. David A. Brown, formerly employed by the Miller Floral Co., Farmington, Utah, has moved to this city to act as manager for the new firm. Springfield, O. — New fixtures and stock which will cost approximately $20,000 are being installed in the store of Gustav Schneider, at 22 East High street. In addition to the installation of the new fixtures and stock, various improvements are being made. The front of the store is being remodeled so that two large show windows will be provided. The entrance is to be tiled. The entire interior of the store will be given a trellis effect and an electric fountain will be sunk in the center of the floor. The fixtures will be in white and the floor will be in green and white tile. OCTOBBB 80, 1910. The Florists^ Review 27 TOLEDO, O. Tlie Market. Business reports are good in all flo- rists ' shops. There is much funeral work and many weddings and social functions. The better varieties of mums are com- ing in. Some good pompons are seen. Various Notes. G. Bayer has several houses of excel- lent mums and pompons. His place is in fine shape. Wm. Krueger is cutting a fine lot of pompons and some good double cosmos. Harry Heinl 's place is in tiptop shape at present. He is cutting some good mums. Thomas McGee, of the Scottwood Greenhouses, reports several .large fu- neral orders lately. Mrs. J. B. Freeman had the decorations for two large parties at the Toledo Club Friday night, October 24, which called for fountains. These were filled with a delicate perfume and colored water. Premier roses formed the outer decora- tions and colonial bouquets were used as favors. Visitors last week were Mr. Mc- Carthy, of the M. Rice Co., Philadelphia; Wm. B. Lake, of Philadelphia; E. E. Sackett, of the Fostoria Floral Co., Fos- toria, O., attending the Shriners' meet- ing; Morris Grossberg, representing Grossberg-Tyler-Finnerman Co., Chicago, and Fred Longren, of Chicago. C. M. B. NEW YOBE. TIi<; Market. The long wished for killing frost has not materialized; consequently there is a heavy supply of outdoor flowers still coming into the market. It is many years since a similar condition existed. Dahlias are in great abundance and gen- erally of good quality. Good varieties sell fairly well. Gladioli and asters are still seen. Large quantities of tritomas, hardy chrysanthemums, calendulas, del- j^iniums, candytuft, hardy asters, zin- nias and other flowers are arriving and clear at some price or other. Of course, this state of things affects the sale of stock grown under glass somewhat and at times clearances are difficult except at concessions in price. Chrysanthe- mums particularly are sufferers. There is an abundant supply of roses and the quality is good. American Beauty is plentiful and at times moves slowly, especially in the special grade. Hybrid teas are arriving in quantities which tax the clearing powers of the wholesalers, the demand for them not being particularly strong. Hadley, Ophelia, Columbia and Premier seem to be the favorites. Yellow varieties are in rather poor demand. Prices remain practically unchanged. The supply of carnations is increasing and their movement is much slower. The quality is fair, but there is too much choice these days for retailers to en- thuse much over them. The price range is $1 to $3 per hundred and stock must be excellent to bring the higher figure. Cattleyas are in short supply, not nearly sufficient to go around. The top price is $2 per flower, or even more for the best of the hybrids. Few spray orchids are arriving. Gardenias are coming in; they are short in stem, but the best bring as much as $9 per dozen. There are no Easter lilies, but the supply of rubrums keeps up, at $3 to $5 per hundred. A few callas are arriving, but drag somewhat at $2 to $3 per dozen. Lily of the valley is in better supply, but prices remain high, $15 to $20 per hundred, with specials $25. There is a good supply of white bou- vardia, which in a measure takes the ing, 25 West Thirty-ninth street.

Sweet peas are com ing in, but shipments are light and the quality is poor; the range of price is $1.50 to $2 per hundred sprays. Ship- ments of violets are increasing in num- ber, but these flowers are not attractive; the warm weather keeps quality down; the best bring as much as 50 cents per hundred. The supply of chrysanthemums is much increased and after the best are disposed of the surplus drags. The old McNiece variety is especially promi- ment and seems to be finished unusually well this year. Pompons and singles are in abundant supply. Quantities of oak foliage are offered for sale and never was the quality higher; the season has been good for color and the natural sheen is unim- paired by damaging frosts. Various Notes. Nearly a column and a half of the Evening Telegram October 27 was de- voted to the career of Charles Thorley in connection with the announcement that he is soon to retire, to turn the business over to his employees and en- gage in politics. Forty-six years ago Mr. Thorley opened a shop on Four- teenth street. His lease of a store on the site of the present Times building gave him his real start towards success. He has long been at the northwest cor- ner of Fifth avenue and Forty-sixth street. Many of the florists attended the an- nual show of the Morris County Horti- cultural Society, at Morristown, N. J., October 29 and 30. This is considered to be one of the most important shows in this section. The show of the Tarry- town Horticultural Society opens in Tarrytown November 5, and the annual exhibition of the Chrysanthemum So- ciety of America, in connection with the show of the American Institute, opens the same day in the Engineering build- building, 405 Lexington avenue, in charge of E. Lohman. The slogan of the S. A. F. publicity campaign appears to appeal to song writers. The latest is a fox trot, which the well known music publisher, Albert Von Tilzer, proposes to put out to the musical profession on its merits. The past presidents of the New York Florists' Club held a dinner at Billy the Oysterman 's Thursday evening, Octo- ber 23. J. C. Vaughan, of Chicago, was an .invited guest. The next meeting of the New York Florists' Club is to be held Monday, November 10. An effort is being made to hold the meeting in the proposed new quarters in the Engineering building, 25 West Thirty-ninth street. J. H. P. An exhibition will be given by the New York Botanical Garden in coopera- tion with the Horticultural Society of New York November 8 to 10, at the time of the opening of the new general display house given to the Botanical Garden by Daniel and Murray Guggen- heim.

I am sending you a rose branch, from which hangs a bug enclosed in its shell. Will you tell me what it is? Almost all my rose bushes have the same kind of bug hanging from the branches. What should I do to kill them? P. R. I. — La. This is what we know as the car- penter bug, for the reason that it cuts out pieces of the leaves of foliage plants and twigs of other plants to build its cocoon with. It is quite destructive and in a short while will perforate most of the foliage of a good-sized bed, espe- cially of cannas and roses. I should ad- vise collecting and destroying them to prevent their increase. M. P. 28 The Florists^ Review OCTOBBB 30, 1019. ft Efltebllahed. 1897. by O. L. QRANT.

It's always a buyer's market if you don 't know what your costs are. Let's bury the hatchet — in the skull of that trade hindrance, low quality. It isn't the way stock leaves you that counts; it's the way it reaches your cus- tomer. Next week begins the succession of autumn flower shows that fills the first half of the month of November. BoNNAFFON still maintains its high place among chrysanthemums despite the introduction of many fine varieties. Armistice week is being planned as an occasion for urging the public to "Say It with Flowers ' ' by the trade in a nufl- ber of cities. Since daylight saving ended and the clocks were set back, October 26, florists must accommodate themselves to dark- ness descending an hour earlier. When your friend, who isn 't a florist, has a birthday anniversary, put a vase of flowers on his desk. He will like it so well he will send your flowers to his other friends on similar occasions. Wages have advanced more than the cost of living has. If you had not thought of it, look around and note the wage-earners buying luxuries on a scale never equalled in the history of the world. Oregon gets double-price for selected apples wrapped in soft paper and neatly boxed. Potato shippers are now doing the same thing. If it pays them, it will pay you to deliver your goods smartly stowed away. There 's money in good packing. Report is that Pemet-Ducher 's two novelties, Souvenir de Claudius Pemet and Souvenir de George Beckwith, are two of the greatest of this famous raiser 's triumphs. The fact that the first is the variety chosen to perpetuate the memory of the elder of the two sons lost in the war is received as guarantee that it is a really fine rose. It is described as a beautiful yellow rose and the biggest advance in the Pernet tamily of roses yet introduced. The other variety wa.s named aft^'r the late George Beckwith, of Hoddesdon, England, and is described as a real advance on the Lyon rose, free from the faults of that variety. Records of returns show that what is worth growing is worth most if grown well. Quantity is outdistanced by quality. Besides showing a lack of originality, it is taking chances when one attempts to compliment a lady by giving her name to a new variety. Suppose the novelty proves to be a "lemon!" What will the lady think when she finds her namesake has gone into the discard? COAL S^IEE NOT AVIISTED. Even an appeal from President Wil- son from his sickbed was futile in its attempt to avert the strike of coal miners, called for November 1. All en- deavors to bring operators and workers together failed. State and federal ad- ministrations have declared that they will not permit industries and trans- portation to be tied up, but will not dis- close what measures are to be taken to prevent it. The country is threatened with the loss of its fuel supply at a most critical time, when production has been below normal and stocks arp low, when cold weather is just at hand and when the industries of the nation need a greater supply of coal than ever to increase production and meet the de- mands that are forcing prices con- stantly higher. Months ago, when the first warnings of a fuel famine appeared, The Review urged florists to fill their bins early, in order to avoid increased prices and to make sure of their season's supply. As a result of that early and continued warning the greenhouse trade is fairly well stocked. Many have their season's full supply, come what may. Others have ample to carry them part way, the extent being dependent upon the se- verity of the winter. The ones who disregarded the portents are now hastily gathering what they may. The attitude of the operators and the miners at the Washington conferences indicates a stubborn fight. How long- drawn it will be depends upon the ac- tion of the government and how effec- tive it will be. WHAT IS YOUR MAItaiN? Retailers who have made conspicuous business successes have held firmly to the policy of charging prices from 100 to 200 per cent above actual cost of stock used, in order to provide fully for all overhead and incidental costs. At various times plans have been worked out to cover departments of the busi- ness, giving illustrations to show the necessity of such a method. About the time the war began the three-to-one es- timate was gaining currency; if you paid $1 for stock you charged $3 for it. Then came high prices and higher prices. It had not been a hard step to move up figures from $2 to $3 when one had found his prices only two-to- one instead of three-to-one, but even after one had found how wise, how needful, was such a fixed rule, he paused before following it when the old-time $1 stock cost $2 and the rule called for a retail price of $6. Many have hesi- tated. They disliked to offend cus- tomers; they were tender to criticism of their prices. So they "shaded" a little. And the increased costs have eaten into the margin more and more, until the retailer wonders where his jirofits are. It takes a bold spirit to advance prices under present conditions, when "profiteer" has an ugly sound. But the business man who has treated his customers right before will not open himself to that charge now. Cultivate confidence of your customers in you by all means, but do not forget a safe margin is as necessary now as it was five years ago for the maintenance, not to say success, of your business. THE ABT OF SAIiESMAKSHIP. One of the leading business men of the country gives the following advice tl^t we can all apply whether we are selling flowers, seeds or nursery stock. This is it: ' ' There are three magic words of salesmanship: Listen! Agree! Oblige! But the average untrained salesman does not know the power of these words. Usually he has three other words: Talk! Argue! Compel! These three words have spoiled many a sale, and lost many a customer. Of course, I do not mean that a salesman should surrender to a customer, but I say that he should avoid all appearance of op- position or compulsion. The art of salesmanship is in getting the customer over to your point of view without pushing him. And the secret of doing this well is really to desire to be help- ful, both to your firm and the customer. If you don't believe this, please give it an honest trial on at leaat three cus- tomers. Try it for one day, anyway, and see what will happen. Listen! Agree! Oblige!" THANK YOU. It always is a satisfaction to know that those one serves are pleased with the service.

Pahud; sec- retary, O. E. Steinkamp. October 30, 1919. The Florists^ Review 29 OBITUARY Albert A. Spear. Albert A. Spear, for many years one of the best known florists along the Massachusetts south shore, died at his home on Broad street, East Weymouth, after a short illness, October 23. He was 76 years of age. The deceased was a native of England and is survived by a widow and three children. One of his sons, Charles A. Spear, has been for some years active in the business. At the funeral services, October 24, there was a large attendance and many beau- tiful floral tokens were noted. W. N. C. Albert S. Miller. Albert S. Miller, 79 years old, a well- known florist of Lancaster county, died at Sporting Hill, Pa., October 17. He was a charter member of the Patriotic Order Sons of America. SALT LAKE CITY. The Maxket. Business continues to pick up, and while the last week has not been quite 80 good as the same week was last year, business is good for this season. Koses are moving fairly well. Columbia and Hoosier are in good demand, while Ophelia, Shawyer and White Shawyer clean up fairly well. Carnations are coming on in fine shape; the stems are long and flowers extra good. White Wonder and En- chantress Supreme are the leaders, sell- ing for $6 per hundred. A few Laddie have begun to appear, but the stems are not yet long enough to make them a leader. The week has seen many changes of the weather. The first part was warm, with plenty of sunshine, while the end of the week the ground was covered with four inches of snow. What few outdoor flowers the frost did not get are now ruined. Pompons and large mums arc at their best and some extra fine stock can be had. As a whole, the mums are the best seen for some years. E. O. Hill at Farmington. Mr. and Mrs. E. G. Hill, of Richmond, Ind., visited Salt Lake City last week on their way home from their tour of the Pacific coast states. While here they visited the greenhouses of the Miller Floral Co., at Farmington, espe- cially to see some new roses which are being grown there. The new roses being tested out con- sist of two sports from Shawyer, one white and the other a deep pink, almost red, and two seedlings produced on the place. Seedling No. 1 is a cross be- tween Ophelia and Shawyer, having many qualifications of a good forcing rose, being a good grower, profuse bloomer and beautiful light pink in color. Seedling No. 3, a cross between Hoosier Beauty and Shawyer, appealed to Mr. Hill for its pleasing deep pink color and other qualifications as a forc- ing variety. The Miller Floral Co. will grow these varieties in large quamtities next year and if they continue to prove satisfac- tory they will be offered to the trade in 1921. The white sport from Shawyer has been extensively grown by the com- pany for the last three years and is considered by retail florists of the in- termountain country much superior to White Killarney, which it has now re- placed. G. J. B. NEW ORLEANS, LA. The Market. During the last two weeks there has been a rather marked quickening in business. Social functions have been numerous, while a number of prominent weddings have helped to swell the de- mand. Taking receipts as a whole, the period has seen some improvement in both style and quality, and the assortment, espe- cially of roses and carnations, has been broader. The high temperature which has ruled of late has, however, proved a difficulty with the dealer and some stock which had been carelessly packed has had to be dumped into the garbage can. The market has been well supplied with roses and one has heard but few complaints as to the quality arriving, although the long-stemmed grades have not been so plentiful as might have been desired by the higher-class trade. Long- stemmed carnatiojis have been in better supply and the quality has improved materially. Gladioli have been in poor supply and in many instances style has been lacking. The market has received a few consignments of chrysanthemums from California. These have arrived in good condition, especially Wm. Turner and Chieftain, while the general de- mand has been met by the addition of a few local cuts of Robinson. In the way of home-grown outdoor stock the market has been well supplied Mdth Cochet, Killarney and Radiance roses. The high level of temperatures ruling all through the month has been detri- mental to the chrysanthemum crop to a large extent. The crop will not be up to last year's in volume. Last year there were a large number of amateur growers who eked out their income by a few dollars, but they have dropped largely by the wayside. Those who were accustomed to employ labor in the work have found it a missing quantity all through the summer and some have balked when taking into consideration the high price of the cloth used in finish- ing off the crop. Various Notes. The monthly meeting of the New Or- leans Horticultural Society was held Oc- tober 16, with a large attendance of members and the venerable Charles Eble, president, in the chair. The society went on record as advocating the crea- tion of a chair of horticulture in the new trade school out of the bequest left the city by the late Isaac Delgado. This trust fund is now estimated to be about $1,250,000. James A. Newsham, of the Magnolia Nursery, proposes to graduate as a full- fledged ■ ■ bubolician, ' ' having purchased a 270-acre farm on the banks of the Tickfaw river, in the heart of the dairy- ing and strawberry section. The pres- ent nursery is to be carried on as usual and the new place will act as a partial feeder of outdoor stoftk to the establish- ment on Metairie road. H. E. Dresel, Metairie road, secured the first premium for his exhibit of cut flowers at the Shrewsbury fair October 9 to 12. The vase of outdoor-grown Ra- diance roses came in for a great deal of favorable comment and his dahlias were pronounced superb. One of the most notable in the latter exhibit was the new Dr. Tevis, the creation of Frank Pelicano, San Francisco, Cal. Max Scheinuk opened his new estab- lishment on St. Charles avenue and Third street October 22 with a display of chrysanthemums, roses, cattleyasi, palms and ferns such as is seldom seen here. The new building is a modification of the old Creole architecture, adapted to modern tastes and requirements, and nothing has been spared by the owner to emphasize the point that it is well to "Say It with Flowers." The Avenue Floral Co. celebrated its thirty-fift,h anniversary October 25. Un- der its president, C. W. Eichling, many of the most successful of the trade re- ceived their training. The salesrooms of this firm are always tastefully decorat- ed with the best of the season's flowers, while the approach to the nursery has likewise its display of typical shrubs and outdoor flowers. E. F. CHICAGO. The Market. The market filled up with flowers in the later part of last week and October 27 found a supply considerably ahead of requirements. The condition seemed to be principally due to unfavorable weather, the temperature having been much higher than normal for the sea- son, skies dark and atmosphere humid. It was weather that produced unusual quantities of flowers, of none too good quality, but which did nothing to accel- erate the demand. In the night of Oc- tober 27 a cold wave arrived. The tem- perature now is normal and it is ex- pected that there will be a prompt im- provement in conditions. The houses which ship flowers over a large part of the central part of the United States reported that the situa- tion in Chicago last week, and at the start of the present week, seemed merely to be a reflection of conditions general throughout the country. Their advices were to the effect that all the secondary markets in the territory were badly congested with flowers. The con- dition was apparent in the reduced num- ber and size of the shipping orders. The situation is exactly the opposite of what prevailed at this time la.st year. Then nobody had flowers and everybody who ever bought stock here was reminding the shipper that he was an old customer. The chrysanthemum has come to the front as the predominating flower. It seems to be literal truth that at the moment there is no limit to the supply, either of large flowers or of pompwas. Anything the chrysanthemum market ever afforded is available now. Of course prices have eased. Except for a limited quantity of specially high grade blooms, any reasonable ideas as to what the buyer wants to pay can be met. Some of the local retailers are receiving California chrysanthemums in considerable quantity and their failure to purchase from the local market is a factor in the preserft situation. It is probable, however, that all reason for importing mums from the coast has [Continued on pasre .14.] 30 The Florists^ Review OCTOBBB SO, 1919.

WE ARE CLOSED ALL DAY SUNDAY passed for this season and that the shipments now on the road will be the last. Express charges and waste can- not be met when the local market is as well supplied as now. Kose crops are light. Most of the growers seem to have foreseen the pres- ent condition of the market and to have timed their crops to avoid the chrysan- themum season. Nevertheless the sup- ply is in excess of the demand, so that prices have weakened. There are not enough short roses to go around, even with pompons competing for the funeral work trade, but of the special, long, fancy grades there are enough so that prices are easy and values high. Beau- ties are much less plentiful than re- cently. The daily receipts clean up in good shape. The supplies of carnations are increas- ing daily and it is predicted by some experienced observers that there will be no further shortage this season, given fair weather conditions. Violets also are much more plentiful, referring spe- cially to the doubles; there will be few singles this season. Valley has gone into the same class with Easter lilies, not regularly obtainable. Such valley as comes on the market is held at 20 cents per spike, a price hitherto un- known. Orders for cattleyas can be filled if wants are made known a day in advance; the supply is not yet large enough to have them continuousry on hand. Sweet peas are much more plen- tiful but scarcely conntafyetr. iMttannuiNiiicaiHiiumiaiMiimiwaMiMimiaaiiiittii lamHHnniaiHiniiuHCxnmiiMmuiHHMaaiMr .: a A record of one Birthday date brought a Florist a ^25-2^ order I SUPPOSE YOU HAD A RECORD OF 100. 200. 500 OR 1000 BIRTH- DAYS AND OTHER ANNIVERSARY DATES AND THAT EACH ONE AV- ERAGED ONLY A $3.00 ORDER.

These are Montgomery seedlings, to be dissemi- nated this season by A. N. Pierson, Inc. There are only a dozen plants of each variety at Maywood, but they serve the purpose of showing color, type of flower and habit of growth.

He is at the head of a force of ten men, working nights and Sundays to hasten bulb ship- ments. A third car of giganteums ar- rived this week and October 27 sixty- eight cases of Dutch stock came in. The first Paper Whites of the season, so far as noted, were shipped in last week by Charles McCauley, of the Eiver- bank Greenhouses, Geneva, 111. Elmer Volkman, E. C. Amling's new- est son-in-law, is learning the rose grow- ing business through association with Eugene Dramm. The latest item of equipment in the shipping department of the Chicago Flower Growers' Association, presided over by L. C. Sherer, is a huge brass stencil, with which ' ' Say It with Flow- ers" in the standard style of lettering is emblazoned on the sides of every box sent out. The gardeners on the north shore will have a field day at Durand Art Insti- tute, Lake Forest, next Wednesday, No- vember 5, when the second annual chrys- anthemum exhibition will be held there. The affair would be of special interest to the seedsmen if they were not so busy with bulb shipments and the greenhouse builders will all be there. Andrew Chronis, of the Alpha Floral Co., is one of those who subscribes to the belief that to sell flowers one must have flowers to sell. The store at the corner of Wabash avenue and Adams street, is literally crammed with stock. It could not well hold more. The show- ing provokes many comments from those who pass and the clerks are busy. The rose growers at Maywood are not propagators; they prefer to use their space for cut flowers and to buy their young stock from specialists. But they view with alarm the scarcity of Man- etti stocks and the prospect that a young grafted rose plant for the next two years at least will cost three times as much as heretofore. E. C. Amling plans to leave some time next month to spend the winter at Orange, Cal. The trip is because of WHOU8AUB FLORISTS L 1.

It was cer- tainly an artistic triumph for the Dicks Floral Co. The management of the hotel threw open the doors of the banquet hall for the rest of the week and many thou- sands of people admired its beauty. F. George Dicks and his force received many congratulations on the work. Horace J. Head, of Geo. B. Hart, came from Rochester, N. Y., to assist in the decoration. Various Notes. The West Floral Co. had a window decoration which attracted crowds dur- ing the visit of the Prince of Wales. In the window were pictures of Queen Victoria, Prince Albert, King Edward VII, King George and the present Prince of Wales. The pictures of Queen Victoria and her consort, taken in 1838, were brought from England for the room to be occupied by the Prince of Wales, later King Edward, in Toronto in 1860. J, Gammage & Sons report good busi- ness, having had several good weddings and a considerable amount of funeral work lately. H. J. H. PHILADELPHIA. The Market. The cut flower market is in an unsat- isfactory condition. The arrival of pom- pons has increased the burden of an al- ready overloaded market, which was re- lieved only a little by the drastic meas- ures taken to shorten the supply of dah- lias. The supply of good chrysanthe- mums has been so large that fears are expressed as to whether they will pay to grow at the prices realized. Business has been fair, but it hardly seems so with the heavy supply of flowers. BERGER BROS.

Both the outdoor kinds and those from under glass are now in strong supply. Carnations are selling a little better than a week ago. Boses hold up well, especially in the better grades. The supply is much smaller, due to the heavy disbudding that is be- ing done for Christmas. Cattleyas have advanced sharply in price, due to light receipts and advance orders.

The com- mittee appointed to provide for the matter has acted with commendable vigor. They gave us a Flower week — the first we have ever had — a float in the parade and much advertising. They have also secured a large number of signatures to their plan for meeting the expenses, past and future. Here they consider their work ended.

Consequently there has been a drop in the prices of most flowers during the last ten days. There has been an in- creased demand for flowers, but the de- mand has not been so sharp as it would have been had there been some hard frosts. Many persons are still cutting cosmos, dahlias, etc., from their own gardens, and the florists are losing con- siderable trade which they usually get at this time of the year. Various Notes. At the October meeting of the Essex County Florists' Club plans were dis- cussed to make an unusual effort to make the club a success this year. During the last year or two the affairs of the club have lagged somewhat and the meetings have not been as large as they should have been. In the drive for bigger things this year, a number of new mem- bers have already been secured and in- terest in club affairs has been aroused among many members who have been a little lax in club affairs of late.

A good season's busi- ness is expected, however. R. B. M. PITTSBURGH. The Market. Business was fair last week, although at times there was a considerable glut, owing to another period of warm weather, which favored outdoor produc- tion to the sorrow of commercial inter- ests. There has been plenty of green- house stock, including chrysanthemums, which, however, cleaned up nicely each day in the city markets. Some of the outside growers are offering them to small dealers in the suburbs at prac- tically the buyers' prices. Otherwise, prices continue just about as they have been noted for several weeks past. Koses continue to come along in far greater quantities than demanded. Business in "Wilkinsburg seems most flourishing, considering the fact that the season is not as yet in full swing. On th^^-c^ntra^T, the neighboring city of B/^dock is having a noticeably dull season so far. Some attribute it to the strike of the steel-workers, whose nu- merous funerals demand quantities of flowers from January to December, while others say it is merely an off sea- son.

Club Outing. The Pittsburgh Florists' Club made an automobile tour October 14 of the com- mercial greenhouses, having, on the two previous occasions, visited the private ranges. In spite of the rain a crowd of sixty-six assembled at E. C. Ludwig's store, on the north side. The first stop was to have been at the houses of the McCallum Co., at Harmony, but, owing to the bad roads, this was given up and the first place visited was the range of the E. C. Ludwig Co., at Ludwig Station, on the Butler Short Line. Here the visitors found every- thing in fine shape. The firm had a part of its bulb shipment and already had them in flats and pots.

Mrs. Aaron Ward, Maryland, Killarney, White Kil- larney, Jonkheer J. L. Mock and a few other sorts were all in fine con- dition. Another rose house, 60x450 feet, was planted in Russell and Premier, which indicated that these roses are finding especial favor with this firm. The chrysanthemum houses aroused much interest, especially the benches of pompons. The orchid house, 50x200 feet, held the party probably as long as anything.

Every man has a room for himself on the second floor. On the first floor are the large reading room about 40x40 feet, another room provided with a pool table, and the lava- tories, which contain twenty-six wash- stands, four showers and four bath-tubs with hot and cold water. The whole building is heated with hot water. Last, but not least, is Frau Zeis, who is in charge of the hotel and soon led the guests to an ample lunch and also fur- nished music on her Vietrola. After lunch, the party returned to the roses and carnations. Some of these houses are almost 700 feet long. A block of connected houses containing carna- tions covers just two acres. There were also houses containing benches of yel- low ^aisles, callas, calendulas and an- tirrhinums. In the trip only one empty belich was seen and a man was white- washing that one. The last stop was at John Wyland's range, Allison Park, where the visitors inspected his carnations, primulas, cycla- mens, smilax and other potted plants, and later watched Mr. Wyland feed his fish. Mr. Wyland believes in decorating bis own grounds, and among the attrac- tions is a small artificial lake. Various Notes.

These all meet with ready sale. Carnations are a little more plentiful, i>ut are by no means in large supply. These clear readily at from $2 to $4 per hundred. As yet, roses have suffered but little from the supply of mums and are in good supply in all colors, meeting with active demand at prices ranging from $3 per hundred up. The average prices, however, are $6 and $8 per hundred. Large lots can be had at lower prices. The continued postponement of cold weather has brought on an abundance of dahlias and cosmos. Various Notes. E. E. Jones and George Gause, of Eich- mond, Ind., were visitors last week. F. L. Morris, of Bloomington, Ind., also called on the trade. The final premium lists for the Indiana chrysanthemum show are now out. All exhibitors are urged to get their entries in early. The next meeting of the Indiana State Florists' Association will be held at Eichmond, Ind., Monday, November 3. It is to be held a day earlier than usual, in order that the association mem- bers may view the blooms that will be shipped that evening to the New York show. It is expected to be an unusually attractive and interesting meeting and a large delegation from this city is anticipated. The Indianapolis florists will leave on the 7:45 Pennsylvania fast train and get off at East Haven, pro- vided the delegation is large enough to have the train make a special stop. Mr. Breitmeyer, of John Breitmeyer's Sons, Detroit, called on the trade last week. Baur & Steinkamp are supplying some of the retail stores with some excellent new seedling chrysanthemums. E. E. T. The Bertermann Bros. Co. is complet- ing the ninth of a group of greenhouses at Cumberland. The new house is 42x 200 feet, of steel, concrete and glass, and cost $15,000.

SEC'Y YOUNG'S CORNER OFFICE: 1 170 Broadway, New York NATIONAL PUBLICITY CAMPAIGN. Personal Influence. Our publicity committees and all con- nected with our campaign are fully convinced of the latent interest on the part of florists in our publicity work, an interest which only needs awakening to make forthcoming the support we so urgently need at the present time. They are also quite sure that among those who have already subscribed are to bo found many who could influence their brothers in the trade to rally to the campaign standard. To such the fol lowing letter might furnish a sugges- tion: "Office of Charles A. Dards, Inc., New York, October 16, 1919. Albert Pochelon, 153 Bates street, Detroit, Mich. Dear Mr. Pochelon: Won't you kindly accept the enclosed check for $50 in connection with the F. T, D. na- tional publicity fund, this to be con- sidered as a separate contribution frojii any contract we may have already .' Mr. and Mrs. Penn, of Boston, who have just returned from the convention, have only this minute left the store, and Mr. Penn's personality, enthusiasm and good fellowship so worked on my personal feeling that it behooved nie immediately to show my appreciation in the above matter. Cordially yours, II. G. Perry, General Manager." Commenting upon the letter, Mr. Pochelon says, "Mr. Perry, of Charles A. Dards, is not different from a good many other retailers — they are feeling the benefits daily and feel that it is their duty to do more or, at least, do as much as they can." Checks Show Appreciation. A just appreciation of the work of the campaign is the only reward expected for the labor of those engaged in it, and could any appreciation be shown better than in support of our project? A flo- rist who fails to subscribe to the cam- paign fund is really failing to promote his own interests. Everyone in the trade is benefiting from the publicity we are securing, and the more we are able DENVER GENERAL HOSPITAL U. S. RECUPERATION CAMP Quick service by CARTWRIGHT FLORAL CO. DENVER, COLO.

La Crosse Floral Co. ^Z^'J'^X^r^ to secure, the greater the benefit result- ing. Our committees spend as they go and therefore must, if tlie campaign is to last, have money wherewith to keep on going. Our slogan, "Say It with Flowers," should remain for all time before the public continuously. There should be no halt. Were subscriptions to stop, the work would have to be mate- rially curtailed and the present im- proved demand for flowers would neces- sarily decline. No real florist would want this to happen; it would be a calamity. To prevent it and to enable the committees to fully carry out their plans, there should be an end to latent interest and the many hundreds of flo- rists— we could say thousands — who know in their hearts that the campaign is of immense benefit to our industry should lose no time in registering their subscriptions with the secretary. Mak- ing a subscrij)tion entails no sacrifice, for there is hardly a florist in the coun- try who cannot afford one and it should be considered a duty and a pleasure to For WISCONSIN delivery of "Home-grown Flowers" GET IN TOUCH WITH J.

Florists who advertise locally can have material assistance in their work and connect in a profitable way with our magazine advertising by using the va- rious helps supplied by our promotion bureau. Pamphlets describing these aids will be mailed to anyone on appli- cation for them. It might be mentioned here that the advanced cost of labor and materials has obliged our promotion bureau to advance the price of the large electrotyped advertisements to $1.25 each, which is actual cost on quantity purchases. A Correction. Two weeks ago we published a list of florists whose subscriptions of $200 or more each aggregated one-seventh of the publicity fund as then collected. We gave the list as of twenty-five florists, but only twenty-four names were print- ed, the name of Schiller the Florist, Chi- cago, $200, being accidentally omitted. Another name omitted was that of the Jos. n. Hill Co., Richmond, Ind., $200, which would have made twenty-six names to the list instead of twenty-five. The correction is made with due apology for the omission. John Young, Sec'y. BUTFALO'S F. T. D. SUCCESS. Fellowship and Publicity. The F. T. D. meeting at Buffalo was full of enthusiasm, and the neighborly spirit shown by florist to florist was evi- dent at all times. Everyone was eager to express the good fellowship that was predominant throughout the two days of tbe convention. Those who were present showed their keen interest in everything pertaining to F. T. D. 'ism and especially to the publicity work of the national campaign, not only by their presence, but also by a spontaneous sub- scription contributed during the session. The way everyone manifested his interest in the slogan, "Say It with Flowers," was encouraging, as was the whole-hearted manner in which the new signs were bought, at $50 each, freight prepaid, with the slogan painted on boards, 7i/{!x20 feet, making a most val- uable attraction for anyone to have on his plots or greenhouses. Many sales were made to individuals who purchased ^•vc-»'.«c^a K--^-.-a'.' DETROIT AIICHICAISI Orders given best of care by these five F. T. D. Members J.

This is just another instance of how the national slogan will be carried on more than ever, eventually encircling the United States and Canada with its mission. Buffalo a Genial Host. The members of the Buffalo Florists' Club are to be congratulated on the manner in which they did their job and the thanks of the entire convention were tendered them for their good work. The various windows throughout the city of Buffalo were exceedingly at- tractive as they told the story of the F. T. D. and its various functions in the telegraphing of flowers. Much praise is due for the original displays noted and the large crowds at the different store windows indicated ample repay- ment for the efforts of those making the displays. The newspapers of BufTalo devoted pages to the convention and its pro- ceedings, and this publicity undoubtedly gave added impetus to the uses of the F. T. D. and to the sale of more flowers. This part of the program was ably man- aged by Mrs. Ella Grant Wilson and showed a master hand in its e.xecution. Indianapolis Next. The standards set at the F. T. D. convention show everyone interested in the business to be transacted and the eagerness of all to do their part proves its success. Members present from all parts of the United States and Canada all de- sired the next convention to be in their respective cities, but Indianapolis was given preference for 1920, with all signs STAMFORD, CONN.

As to the future growth of the F. T. D., nothing short of an enrollment of every florist in the United States and Canada can possibly be the outcome, since it will be only a short time until credits will be extended only to those who can show membership, and then will there be a scramble for membership such as never before. Now is the time for applications to be sent in, for you to place yourself in the same class with all the other members and be held reliable. IIow can you afford not to belong? The Florists' Golden Rule. Many florists question whether it pays to belong and what they will get out of it. The only answer is, that if you put nothing in, just so much will you receive. The moment you produce and send orders to other cities, just so quick- ly will they send orders to you, but not until then and the florist that re- ceives orders proves that he is sending them out too. It pays well and is worth going after. BOSTON-BECKER'S Send U8 your teleKrams Prompt eervlce IN and ROUNDABOUT BOSTON.

The market is getting more brisk. There seems to be no end to outside stock. There are some fine mums com- ing in, including Pacific Supreme, Polly Rose, Glory of the Pacific, Snow Queen and Robinson. A good supply of Aspara- gus plumosus is arriving in good condi- tion. There has been a great demand for orchids. Various Notes. A large number of the local florists attended the dinner f)arty which was given by the Baltimore Florists' Club, October 21, at the Southern hotel. They all felt well repaid for their trip and said that it was the time of their lives. The Baltimore florists will return the visit.

They also attended the banquet in Baltimore. John Paul, of Cumberlaml, Md., was in town October 20. He made short calls on several members of the traile. Miss Minnie Schultz, of F. 11. Kram- er's force, has been ill at her home for several days as a result of inhaling the fumes from some disinfectant which she was using on flowers. The Gude Bros. Co. has a decidedly attractive display. It consists of a pond and a small fountain, and the clever ar- rangement of the rocks and greens whirli surround it adds to its natural appear- ance. Back on the slope is a miniature greenhouse which advertises Gude's home-grown flowers. Mr. Gude is rest- ing up in Atlantic City. Sam Maston, formerly with George U.

The entire auditorium was strung with strings of smilaz and there were stand- ards of white chrysanthemums with huge bows of ribbon all the way up the aisles. The florists of Washington have been called upon to decorate the interior of the Bed Cross convalescent house at Walter Eeed hospital. This, of course, will be done by the florists in a suitable manner without any cost whatsoever to the hospital or the Bed Cross. Gude Bros. Co. had an unusual funeral order for Mr. Kahlert, the proprietor of Breezy Hill Farm, Md. From the day he died it was necessary, by the request of the family, to send out fresh flowers each day and have them arranged. This would be an easy matter ordinarily, but when it comes to taking a 16-mile drive over a country road, it is a different proposition. Monday it was necessary to have several automobiles to bring the flowers back to the city, where the in- terment was held at Mt. Olivet cemetery. EGGERT N.

Business conditions are about normal. A few weddings helped to boost the business of last week till it seemed more like pre-war times. Stock of all kinds is bringing good prices. Boses are ex- ceptionally good, though the supply is limited and it is hard to keep just the right kind of stock on hand. Being cut tight by the growers, it takes two or three days to become salable. Chrysan- themums are arriving in good condition and some fine blooms are seen in window displays. Carnations were a little bet- ter last week and the supply more to fit the demand. The growers predict no glut of stock this season, which means that stock of all kinds will retain good prices. Flowering plants are good sell- ers and the demand is greater than the supply. Schizanthus wisetonensis is good in 5-inch and 6-inch pots, though the sale is a little slow. Cyclamens are good, but not many are to be had. Be- gonias and primulas are both selling CLEVELAND OHIO G. W. MERCER 2991 West 25th Street Member f. t. d. CLEVELAND and EAST CLEVELAND. OHIO HAHN, The Florist, superior aye.

The Duluth Floral Co. was busy during the first part of last week with the Lin- dahl wedding, which was the largest that has taken place in Duluth for some time. As it was a home wedding, the house was decorated throughout. In the living room an altar was arranged with south- ern smilax grouped with white chrysan- themums and long-stemmed Columbia roses. In the dining room the fireplace was draped with southern smilax, while on the table was an elaborate display of pink candles intermingled with Ophelia and Columbia roses. In a hang- sf N?

William Japp, of the Lester park greenhouses, is cutting a fine lot of chrysanthemums and is supplying the Tower Floral Co. with all his cut. A fine batch of chrysanthemums, in both pots and benches, mostly Caps, will be ready in about two weeks. His poin- settias are coming along in fine shape and he looks forward to having a nice lot of pans for Christmas and also some fine blooms for cutting. J. J. Le Borious reports that the Dutch bulbs are in and that the task of plant- ing them is keeping him exceedingly busy, since he has to superintend the planting himself owing to the shortage of competent help. He is cutting a large number of mums, which find a ready sale. He has some fine stock in hydrangeas, which he is shipping in large quantities to many of his out-of-town customers. J. E. S.

Up to this time there has been no frost; so there is plenty of out- door stock of mums, which are of sur- prisingly good quality. There are plenty of dahlias still to be had; these, of course, interfere a great deal with the better grades of mums, but we may look for a killing frost almost any night and then the mum market will get down to a normal state. Hoses, while a little off crop, are suf- ficient for all demands. Carnations are fast improving in quality and by the time the rush of mums is over will be in a fine position to take their place. The demand holds good and if the out- side stock were killed off the market would be satisfactory in every respect. Victory Banquet. Tuesday, October 21, the Florists' Club held its Victory banquet and dance on the roof of the Southern hotel.

While everyone was happy and proud over these two victories, it developed at the entertainment that the florists had another victory to their credit, one that bids fair to be more far-reacbing and lasting, as far as they are concerned, than the other two. That is the victory over provincialism. There was a spirit of liberalism and coopera- tion about this entertainment that could be felt as well as observed. As the writer sat and studied the question and at the same time the crowd, he was im- pressed with the fact that a new genera- tion was at this time taking the active management of the florists' business into its hands.

For, to anyone who is observant, the superstruc- ture of the florists' business is just be- ing erected. One of the happiest inci- dents about this banquet and dance is the fact that it would have been an easy matter to transform it into a recep- tion for bridal couples in the trade. The florists of Baltimore have had a practical demonstration of what prom- ises to be a new era in the business, of what cooperation will do. The decorat- ing of the hall was put in the bands of six of the leading firms of the city, with Robert L. Graham, Jr., as chairman. The firms were Samuel Feast & Sons, Black Bros., Robert L. Graham, Mary Johnston, Albert Fiedler and George Eb- erle. These firms supplied the materials and furnished their staffs of decorators.

DETHLEFS Leading Florist Choice flowrs and prompt service 731 SOUTH MONTANA ST. Member F. T. D. Philadelphia, the remark was heard that he had never seen finer work. The daily press of Baltimore had its eyes opened to the fact that the florists' business vras a factor to be taken ac- count of and each paper tried to outdo the others in describing the decora- tions. The dinner, speeches and dance did not particularly appeal to the report- ers assigned to cover the banquet and, as on former occasions, would have been passed over with perhaps several inches of space. But that the florists should "Say It with Flowers" in such an elo- quent manner was news of the most in- teresting kind. Each reporter tried to outdo the others in his or her description and to do this half a column was re- quired, with large headlines. I have often been in a house or per- haps a church which has been decorated for some happy occasion. This was in the old days, when we had no precedent to go by in our work and everything was necessarily original. On such occasions we would take our positions where we could hear the remarks of the guests as they arrived and beheld our handiwork. To one standing at the doorway of the banquet hall of the Southern hotel, when every guest who passed through was more or less an old hand at the busi- ness, the effect was just the same. Such expressions as "wonderful," "fine work," "beautiful," were heard from everyone. Now, the moral in this is that through team-werk Baltimore florists were able to accomplish all this for their own pleasure and to gain the praise of people who were competent to judge. Exactly the same results can be accom- plished through the same sort of team- work in business. Don 't be afraid to work for each other's interests. Let your motto be "The greatest good for the greatest number." Space will not permit me to enumer- ate all who were there, but MO enjoyed the dinner.

This old veteran of the craft is as much revered in Baltimore as in his home city. When he arose to re- spond to the toast, "The Ladies," he received a round of applause that al- most embarrassed him. Mayor Broening, who has a round of engagements each night, was late in arriving and after re- sponding to the toast, "Baltimore," was obliged to leave. Wallace Pierson spoke on "Advertising" and made a strong appeal for everyone to uphold tlie hand of the publicity committee. Mr. Pier- son brought with him two vases of the new roses, Crusader and Pilgrim. This was the first time many of us had seen them, but I am willing to be classed as a poor prophet if it is the last. Besides Robert Craig, from the City of Brotherly Love were Robert Kift, A. A. Niessen and wife, E. A. Harvey, F. J. Miehell and R. E. Faust, of the S. S. Pennock Co. From Washington were Z. D. Black- istone, G. C. Shaffer, O. A. C. Oehmler, A. E. Gude, W. H. Ernest, George Dal- gleisch. Otto Bauer, E. P. Rodman and Mr. and Mrs. Albert Schnell.

The Market. Business is picking up nicely. Chrysanthemums are making a fine showing and are moving satisfactorily. There is a good lot of zinnias now, in new shades. African marigolds are also abundant. Asters are all gone. Violets are in, but are small; the demand is slow. Cattleya labiata is in demand, also cyclamen blooms for corsages. Potted ferns are in fine condition. There is a large demand for potted chrysan- themums. Carnations are improving steadily. Various Notes. George F. Otto had a wonderful week with the Elks. Being a member him- self, he received orders for most of the decorations and bouquets. Miss A. M. Eainford is kept busy with funeral work and decorations for social functions. Boyle & Darnaud have the best chrys- anthemums they ever grew. Their Cat- tleya labiata, which are in full bloom now, are also exceptionally good. The firm makes a specialty of orchids and finds a ready sale for all its blooms. Mrs. Boyle has charge of the green- houses. The store, under A. Darnaud 's management, is kept busy with funeral work. Mr. Darnaud believes that Sun- day closing would improve business for the trade in this city as it has in other cities. A. D. LOS ANGELES. The Market. The week just passed has been more in favor of the shippers than the re- tailers, the latter reporting quiet busi- ness in most cases. There is usually a dull week or two during the mum sea- son and all are apparently experiencing it now. Mums are just about at the peak and from now on will decline, especially should rain set in, as appears likely at this writing. Some of the finest Bon- naffons ever seen in this market are being sent in by the Glendale growers. Carnations are a little more plentiful and of better quality. Greenhouse- grown stock is fine. There are a few more orchids in, but not nearly enough to meet the demand. A few peas and baby roses are in, as are some excellent late gladioli, pompons, zinnias, corn- flowers and yellow daisies. Various Notes. The Premier roses now coming to the store of W. Armacost & Co., from the new greenhouses, are better than any so far sent in this season. The stock was planted before the houses were glazed and has extra vigor, producing flowers of great substance and good color. The new building being erected for this firm is about completed and they will be well fixed, with plenty of room for the winter shipping business. H. E. Elliott, of the Avenue Floral Co., Oak Park, 111., was in the city last week, having come by the southern route. He left for San Francisco Octo- ber 23. Another eastern visitor was Mr. Hicks, of Toledo, O. He is making trial shipments of stock through the L. A. Floral Co. with a view of shipping regularly, provided the stock gets through in good shape. Geo. HaJl & Co. are doing finely and keeping all hands busy. It is pleasing to note young men like these getting in and doing business right from the start. They were shipping fine Bonnaflfons last week. At Darling's Flower Shop, on Sixth street, there is a wonderful collection of vases, jardinieres, boxes and other art objects that are quite different from anything else seen in the city. Mr. .Darling is nothing if not up-to-date. He reports good business for the season. Purdie & Co. have a distinctive win- dow, advertising the fact that they de- liver flowers on telegraph orders every- where. A magnificent showing of stock is made daily by Wright's Flower Shop. Fred Westrom says that this season nearly all of their mums have been grown at the greenhouses of the firm. The roses are fine now. Owing to getting some foreign mate- rial in his eye, Fred Sperry, of the L. A. Floral Co., had to undergo a slight oper- ation, but it was not serious enough to lay him up. Business is picking up finely here, the first violet shipments going out last week. S. Murata & Co. are carrying a big stock and report business good. H. E. Eichards. SAN FRANOISOO, OAL. The Market.

CHRYSANTHEMUMS BEST QUALITY QUICK SERVIC|) READY FOR SHIPMENT ALL VARIETIES Violets, $1.00 to $1.50 per dozen bunches. United Flower & Supply Co., inc. 448 Buh Street, Wholesale Growers and Shippers j^ FRANCISCO A great many Turners and other white varieties were shipped to New Orleans for the annual All Saints' day festival, November 1. The first extensive cutting of Cecile Brunner and other baby rose varieties has commenced and the buds are in fine shape on long, clean stems. As yet the carnation crop is only fair; it is more plentiful than for some time previous, but the quality is noth- ing to boast of. Orchids are a little short. Violets are steadily growing more plentiful and are retailing well. Some of the shippers have held back on long-distance orders up to this time, however, on account of the warm weather, thinking that the flowers are not strong enough yet to stand up, and are waiting for a good rain to strengthen the stems. Such is not the general condition, however, for the majority of firms state that they are shipping the early crop with suc- cess. The general retail business is good. At present the main feature seems to be funeral work, although a large number of social affairs have created consider- able activity in this line as well. Various Notes.

For the reception of the king and queen of Belgium in Los Angeles, Henry A. Siebrecht, appointed by the mayor of Los Angeles chairman of the deco- ration committee, made elaborate floral preparations. Mrs. Anita BaldLwin, a wealthy woman of Santa Anita Bancho, provided generous funds for the occa- .sion. The Southern Pacific station was decorated; the i)rivate car was deco- rated; the automobiles, the hotel at which the royal couple stopped and the rooms in which they stayed, all were lav- ishly ornamented with flowers. Mr. Sie- brecht also had the decorations at Santa Anita and Pasadena. The Pasadena newspapers devoted extensive space to a description of his work. California Life, a magazine of the Linnard hotels, of which the Maryland, where Mr. Sie- brecht is locate^, is one, also described at length the lavish decorations. POETLAND, ORE. The Market. Market conditions remain about the same as a week ago, with plenty of local stock for all purposes. Chrysanthemums of the best quality are arriving in good quantities and the shipments from California have prac- tically ceased. The weather conditions have been all that could be desired. Of course we are handicapped a little at times by being so near the coast, as the fogs drift in and make it cloudy during the forenoons, but usually the fog lifts about noon and the afternoons are clear and warm. Except in a few places on lowlands, there has been no frost of consequence. This has been favorable, especially to the dahlia growers. Various Notes. The retailers have had a meeting or two lately with the idea of coming to some understanding or agreement as to closing on Sundays. All but one re- tailer, it is said, agreed to the propo- sition. The monthly meeting of the Portland Floral Society was held October 21, / • ■'/■ ■-'■•,f!-\ ■ . ■?,. r^-"- ■■ iS"r--- . ( H with a fairly good attendance. An in- teresting meeting was held. Mr. Blaesing, president of the Port- land Rose Society, was present and gave an outline of the program that the so- ciety is trying to accomplish. The principal thing at present is a larger membership. A campaign will be started soon to secure 1,000 members. Several members of the Floral Society gave their applications and promised to secure more members if they are fur- nished wdth the necessary application blanks. After a larger membership is secured, a campaign will be started to have every home in the city plant a rose. The Shriners' convention will be held in Portland June 21 to 23 and it is desired to have a great showing of roses. The Portland Floral Society went on record as favoring t^ie closing of retail flower shops on Sunday. C. B. Clancey, of Salem, recently elected to membership in the society, was voted a life membership with dues all paid, to show the society's appre- ciution of the royal manner in which it was taken care of at the state fair. Robert Newcomb, of the Burlington Willow Ware Shops, Burlington, la., visited the meeting. James Forbes and William Fernber- ger visited several greenhouses October 19 and reported stock looking exception- ally well. L. T. S. SPOKANE, WASH. The Market. Stock is somewhat scarce, everything being bought up clean, although local roses, such as Ophelia, Columbia, Pre- mier and Hoosier Beauty, are arriving in good supply and fine condition. Mid- season chrysanthemums are coming in gradually now and by next week Golden Queen and Chieftain are expected to put in an appearance. Some of the larger varieties of chrysanthemums are shipped in from California, but they are giving place to our local product, Oconto showing up well at present. There is also a good showing of prim- roses, potted chrysanthemums and pom- pon chrysanthemums. Ferns are excel- lent. The supply of local bulbs is about exhausted and foreign stock is anxiously looked forward to. A suggestion of Thanksgiving is in the air with the appearance of potted peppers and Aviator carnations. Lad- die carnations are in splendid form, bringing $8 per hundred. Various Notes. . At the last meeting of the Florists' Association the "Say It with Flow- ers" week was the topic under discus- sion and it was decided to have the event November 3 to 8, inclusive. All growers and retail iloalers attended the meeting and II. E. Reimers acted as chairman. An effort to interest out-of- town florists met with hearty response. Florists in Butte and Great Falls, Mont.; Lewiston, Ida.; Walla Walla, Seattle, Yakima and Wenatchee, Wash.; Van- couver, B. C, and other cities, plan to cooperate. ir. E. Reimers is still cutting late asters. He lias on exhibition some prize white potatoes weighing about two and two-thirds jionnds each. Despite the ravages of three frosts, he secured 150 sacks of fine medium-sized potatoes from one/ acre. The Florists^ Review OCTOBSB 80, 191d.

SPOKANE CONCRETE FLOWER POT MACHINE CO. 807 Riverside Avenue, SPOKANE; WASH. Philip Weil, of C. C. Pollworth Co., Milwaukee, Wis., was here on business last week. Lewis E. Scott, of the Eoselawn Greenhouses, Moscow, Ida., was a re- cent visitor. Bernson & Halle are having especial success with their Laddie and Aviator carnations; the latter in particular is gaining in popular favor. The members of this firm were the recipients of good- natured bantering at the recent meet- ing of the Florists' Association, when their latest pet, the New Guinea butter bean, was introduced. Though called a bean, it resembles a gourd more than anything else in form and foliage. At the present time it is about two feet in length and is still in its infancy. J. W, Duncan, superintendent of the city parks, was instrumental in getting the seed from California. The Spokane Florist Co. has one win- dow in yellow chrysanthemums and coleus foliage, showing in bold contrast to the other in daintv pinks and white. E. C. W. TACOMA, WASH. The Market.

Seed Trade News AKEaiOAV SEED TRADE ASSOCIATION. Prealdent. B. C. Dungan, PblladelpbU, Pa.; Mcretary-treaanrer. C. B. Kendel, Cleveland. O. F. W. Bruggerhof, of J. M. Thorburn & Co., New York, passed his eighty-ninth milestone October 13. Bad luck pursues bulbs this season — short crop, disease, shipwreck, dock strikes and railroad delays. Theke were flowers on the desk of Fred Barteldes, Lawrence, Kan., Octo- ber 28. It was his sixty-seventh birthday anniversary. Dutch bulb shipments are moving in spite of the stevedores' strike at New York. One way or another, the forward- ing agents are getting the cases onto the cars. Letters from Yokolinma confirm the report of the sinkiii<; of the steamer Yoten Maru with nearly a million gigan- teum liulbs on board. The steamer was on its way to New York via the Panama canal. We all know Holland has no wood and that shijiping cases are costly there, but to find this year's bulb boxes charged at .$;i is something of a shock to many inii)orters. Last year's charge of $2 was thought extortionate. TiiK board of trustees of the Massa- chusetts Horticultural Society, at a meet- ing licld 0(tol)er 20, unanimously awarded tlie (icorge R. White Medal of Honor for 1919 to Vilmorin, Amlrieux & Co., Paris, France, for distinguisiied services to hor- ticulture. Some of the men who recently have ob- tained figures on 1920 catalogues have ex- pressed surprise at the difference over what they thouglit was high cost last year; also tliat they were told the esti- mates were subject to revision unless tiic work could be done at once. . BiMTisH dealers cannot reconcile the fact that Dutch bullis are again being shipped to London for sale l)y pulilic auc- tion with the statements heard "tliat stocks in Holland are so extremely short that orders ( ;niiu)t be cxeiuted in full and that the high prices in vogue were com- pulsory on that acconnt.'' The pink aster which created much comment at the meeting of the Wiscon- sin State Florists' Association has been named Kugowski's Meritorious Pink. The raiser, J. K. Rugowski. Miiiiitownc, Wis., expects to send out seed of tliis aster and of the white one, called Pure Honor, about the first of the year. The firm of Wed. P. de JnnL'l'., soed growers, at Goes, Holland, established in 181(1, was incorjiorated July 1, 1'J19. Its representative, Gerard K. Klyn, arrived at New York on the steamship Rotter- dam, October 21. to call on the wholesale trade in the United States. Until now the concern has confined itself largely to the European trade. It seems likely the bulb trade will suf- fer seriously from the d(days in trans- portation. While the stevedores' strike in New York has caused the loss of weeks with many thousand of cases of Dutch bulbs, scarcely less serious is the subse- quent congestion and slow shipment. Rail movement is irregular. In the meantime the selling season is slipping past.

English trade attributes the shortage of Japanese bulbs to the small crop and to the fact "that the bulk of the avail- able bulbs of this important lily has been snapped up by America, prices running as high as $100 a case. " It is stated that ' * there is little likelihood of anything ap- proaching required supplies of blooms early next year and especially at Easter. We must simply make the best of things that cannot be avoided and cast about us for substitutes." DICKINSON OFFEES BEWARD. Employees Form Company. In the Chicago Tribune, October 26, appeared the following news story: Ten thousand dollars reward is the price of- fered by Charles Dickinson, vice-president of the Albert Dickinson Co., the biggest seed bouse in the world, with offices at. Thirty-fifth street and California avenue. Mr. Dickinson is much stirred up over the reported resignation of seven of his best men within the last week. He offers the reward "for proof and conviction of those concerned In an alleged conspiracy against the Albert Dickinson Co." This proof must be furnished by Monday noon, October 27, 1019. A page advertisement in a local financial jour- nal told yesterday of the reward. The advertise- ment says: "Certain employees of the Albert Dickinson Co., who have been misled, are still on the pay roll of the Albert Dickinson Co." Mr. Dickinson's employees have formed Hie United States Seed Co., which was incorporated at Springfield. 111., on Friday with $500,000 cap- ital. There has been a small amount paid in, according to reports. The men Interested are credited with having a large amount of money. Those who have resigned from the Dickinson company include Charles A. Heath, who has been with the company for thirty-seven years. Seven years ago he was paid $180,000 for the stock he held in the concern, but remained with the com- pany until last Satnrday. A. C. Johnson and H. A. Abbott are other old employees of the company who have quit. Outsiders who are concerned in the new seed company include C. U. Snyder, one of the largest operators In feeds and molasses, who Is credited with making a big fortune in the last few years out of molasses; H, W. Doughten, of New York; a Mr. Reynolds, of Crabb & Reynolds, who are largely interested In the grain and seed business, of Crawfordsville, Ind., and D. W. Hales, of Hales & Edwards Co., Chicago. Mr. Dickinson was on the board of trade yes- terdav with his advertisement offering the big reward and sliowed It around generally. To one member he offered $25,000 for certain Informa- tion. He had little to say other than that the men were still on his pay roll. Efforts to find r. A. Heath have been futile for the last three daTS. XJ. S. SEED CO. OFFICEES. Organization of the United States Seed Co., which was incorporated at Springfield, 111., last week, was per- fected at Chicago, October 27.

Piatt Co., of New Haven, Conn., has concentrated the seed busi- ness under one roof and put in new fix- tures. "Beginning anew at the old stand, so to speak," observed Manager C. H. Anderson. Fred Cowperthwaite, manager of the horticultural department of R. H. Macy & Co., New York city, reports a big im- petus in the bulb section and credits it to publicity. For instance, two columns on this department appeared in the firm's usual daily advertisement and the response was surprising. Bargain prices were-not quoted, either. "Already we have sold more than we did during the entire season last year, which was our first," remarked Mr. Cowper- thwaite. W. M. OATAIiOQUES ILECEIVED. John Oonaon Co., Ltd., Hamilton.

At recent meetings of the stockholders and directors of the Jackson & Perkins Co., Newark, N. Y., Charles H. Perkins, the founder of the business, tenderecl his resignation as director and ])resi- (lent, on account of his now making his j)ermanent residence in California. George C. Perkins was elected to suc- ceed him as president and also continue to hold the office of treasurer. (Charles H, Perkins II was reelected vice- president. P. V. Fortmilier, who has been associated with Jackson & Perkins Co. for many years and is well known to the trade, was elected secretary. NURSERY STOCK FROM NANTES. Nursery stock is one of the most im- portant exports from the district of Nantes, France. In 1917 nursery stock exported to the United States was val- ued at $105,010; in 1918 the shipments decreased to $6(5,8(50, and during the first seven months of 1919 there was a slight increase to $72,740. Most of the nursery "stock is shij>ped during the first four months of the calendar year, so (hat it is unlikely that the exports for 1919 Vill reacli the amount for 1917. The jjrosjx'cts for any increase in this trade are not good on account of (lie stringent quarantine regulations on tlie imjjorta- tion of nursery stock into the United States. French horticultural products have a world wide reputation, and it is esti- mated that tlic value of these ])rodncts previous to the war, for the whole of Frince, excee(lear Nantes and Angers for tlie growing of ever- green shrubs, such as magnolias, camel- lias, hollies, rhododendrons, azaleas, etc. At Doue-la-Kontaine and other places near and around Angers are grown young a]iple and othei- fruit trees as well as roses.

Eight In- dividual states maintain state nurseries for the growing of young trees to supply planting mate- rial for state-controlled lands and distribution to property owners for forest planting. In recent years fruit tree seedlings, to be used by American nurserymen for budding and graft- ing, have been produced on an extensive scale by nurserymen in Kansas. Upwards of 16,000,000 young roses have been grown annually by Ohio nurserymen. There are tift<'en commercial nurs- eries making a specialty of the propagation of young conifers from seeds, cuttings and grafts. A good assortment of young ornamental and flow- ering shrubs is being grown on a commercial scale by exjierienced propagating nurserymen through the east and central west.

It is preposterous to thinlc of endangering our cxteasiTe Iiorticnitural, agricultural, forestry and nursery interests, worth hundreds of millions of dollars, for a few thousands spent each year on imported nursery stock. It was only through quick concerted action on the part of our De- partment of Agriculture that our American white pine forests were saved from utter destruction, by reason of the white pine blister rust which was Imported on nursery stock from Europe. With all this energy being expended on the propagation of young stock, the American nurs- erymen are assured of a constant and increasing supply. There has already been established on the Pacific coast an extensive plant with over $1,000,000 invested for the culture of azaleas, bulbs, boxwoods and other florists' forcing and„ decorative material which have heretofore been ' imported. I predict the next few years will see a miniber of decided changes, with American growers producing the stocks required for Amer- ican needs, and the money which was sent to Europe will stay In America to build up and develop horticulture in our own country. "Such an accomplishment is easily within the range of possibilities when the wealth of native material is consid- ered, in connection with the fact that we have within the territorial limits of the United States a range of soil and climatic conditions which equals that of Europe from the Mediterranean to central Russia, No such opportunity has ever before been offered American plant propagators. It would be un-American not to grasp such an opportunity. Its possibilities are not all economic, for there is the possibility to broaden the love for and interest in things beauti- ful. Americans are no longer entirely consumed in the struggle for bread and meat; in addition, they desire and de- mand some of these things that go to make life worth while. It is on the work of increasing the interest of the public in things beautiful that the great op- portunity of this trade rests." BLUE AND PINK HYDRANGEA.

Use some iron filings in your soil and they may help to grow blue flowers. I would advise you to grow some of the deep blue French hydrangea, Mme. Chautard. It is of a far more intense blue than otaksa and never seems to vary. For pink there are some beautiful varieties, of which Eadi- ant is especially fine. Bouquet Eose and General de Vibraye are other fine pink varieties. High feeding as the flower heads develop will spoil the color. 0. w. v?^^*-.

POEHLMANM BROS. CO. Morton Grove, III. Mention The Review when you write. NEWPORT, R. I. The Market. Business has Ix'on quite at-tive so far this fall. Last week was exceptionally heavy. One of tlie largest (iisi)lays seen in tliis city for a long time was at the funeral of former Congressman William P. iSheHield, October 22. Not only did the local florists have large numbers of pieces for the occasion, but the number of telegraph orders exceeded anything ever before experienced here. In addi- tion, many large pieces were sent from out of town. Because of the extra demand for wed- dings, wiiite roses, carnations and clirys- anthemums have become scarce, while valley has reached a higher i)riie than ever before known. Not only have the local growers found great dilluulty in lueeting the demand, but the call from outside sources has also been excep- tionally heavy. Various Notes. Oscar Stduiltz had the ihurch deco- rations for the J-'agan-Vaughan wedding October 121, and the decoralions and bouquets for the Miller-Bell wedtling at Jamestown. •lames McLeish is candidate for alder- man from Ward o.

NEWARK. NEW YORK 112 The Florists^ Review OCTOBBB 30, 1919. MILWAXJKEE, WIS. Tbe Market. The influx of chrysanthemums has broken the market in a bad way. Prices are still firm on fancy and colored stock, but white goes begging. The smaller sorts are not nearly as good as they should be and are becoming overabun- dant. The heavy supply of mums has affected the price of roses. While roses are not yet cheap, they do not bring what they are worth at this time. Car- nations are the only flowers which have maintained their price and some have advanced. Local buying is not heavy and the re- tailer appears timid about stocking his place. Shipping business is good. Pot- ted plants continue to arrive in large quantities, mums most heavily. Various Notes. Fritsch Bros., on National avenue, have an attractive window of pumpkins and pumpkin baskets filled with flowers. J. M. Fox & Son arranged a pretty Halloween window of oak leaves, corn- stalks and flowers. Eric Dietz, of Wm. Busig Co., New York, and P. Ruppert, of Philip Car- bone, Boston, called on the trade last week. A. H. M. The C. C. Pollworth Co. has just fin- ished potting up and shipping out a carload of French hydrangeas. This firm has received a large consignment of cyclamen seed from Germany. Eva Pollworth, mother of C. C. Poll- worth, died Sunday morning, October 26, at the age of 78 years. Mrs. Poll- worth made her home with her son. She was buried from his residence October 29.

Greenhouse Heating COST OF PURCHASED HEAT. Please tell me what would be a fair price to pay for heat. I have a con- densed water meter which shows that I have used 328,792 pounds of water. The heating plant had to pay $8 per ton for coal. They claim they have an up-to- date system and do not care to make much profit, as it is owned by the state, and they want to get rid of the smoke from the greenhouse. They have charged me $966.99, which I think is too much for less than five months' heat. J. W.— Wis. The cost of commercial heating from central sources varies in different sec- tions according to the cost of coal and the economy of the system. The range is from 60 cents to $1 per 1,000 pounds of condensed water. I know of one central heating plant which burns slack coal with a self-stok- ing boiler and, of course, has fixed a price supposed to yield a profit. The charge was formerly 60 cents per 1,000 pounds of water, but since the increase in the cost of coal, labor, etc., it has been raised to 80 cents per 1,000 pounds to consumers using less than 200,000 pounds of water monthly. If this com- pany can take care of the overhead ex- pense and depreciation of the plant and still mal^ a profit, it would seem that, even thtSugh the cost of the coal may be slightly more, if no profit is expected the rate should be no higher than that which I have mentioned. HEATING HOUSES AND FRAMES. Please tell me the size of hot water boiler and the amount, size and arrange- ment of pipes to heat two greenhouses and four coldframes. They are all on the south side of the dwelling. I want to repipe the old house to grow roses. It is 14x40 feet, has a 9-foot ridge and 4-foot walls without any glass in them. The proposed new house, 17x60, running north and south, has wooden walla with sixteen inches of glass; the north end is wood to the top and the south end has four feet of wood and the rest glass; the house has a 12-foot ridge. The cold- frames are each 6x40 feet, with four inches of wood in the south side and eight inches in the north side; two are covered with double-glazed sash and two with singlo-glazed sash. The new house is to be kept at 60 degrees to grow lilies and carnations. The average winter temperature is zero. J. P. & F. C— Tcnn. To maintain a temperature of 60 de- grees in the greenhouses and 40 degrees in the frames, it will be advisable to in- stall a boiler rated for about 1,000 square feet. Such a boiler should have a grate about twenty-five inches in diameter. For the house 17x60 feet, I should use three 2^^-inch flow pipes and nine 2-inch returns. In the other house, two 2%-inch flows and seven 2-inch returns will answer or two 2-inch flows and nine or ten 1%-inch returns may be used. To heat the coldframes, a 2-inch pipe may be run around three sides of each bed. Two flow pipes may be placed on the walls or wall plate, with the third flow a foot or two below the ridge in the wider house.

The letter does not state whether all of the houses have two side walls ex- posed, or if they are connected and only two of them have one wall each ex- posed. This will make considerable dif- ference in determining the size of the boiler and the amount of radiation re- quired in the houses. In case all of the houses have exposed side walls, I should advise the use of a boiler rated at 75 horsepower, while, if they are connected, a boiler of 60 horse- power would answer.

Address Dcpt. 6 about twenty square feet. A boiler with somewhat smaller grate area would answer, but would require closer atten- tion to maintain a steady steam pressure. For this grate area, I should use a chim- ney twenty-four inches in diameter and thirty-five feet in height. If tall trees or high buildings will interfere with the draft, a somewhat taller chimney should be used. If the houses have both side walls ex- posed, I should use in each house three 2-inch flow pipes and eleven 1^-inch returns under the benches or with part of them on the side walls. If the houses are connected, I should use only nine re- turns in the houses with one exposed wall and in the houses without exposed walls three 1%-inch flow pipes and eight 1%-inch returns. In case all of the returns are to be placed on the side walls, or if overhead flow pipes are not desired in the houses, two 2%-inch flows on the plates and thirteen li4-inch re- turns may be substituted in the houses with both walls exposed. Unless the water level of the boiler is at least three feet below the lowest part of the returns, a steam trap should be put in. FIPINQ FOB HILLSIDE HOUSES. Please let me know whether a 16- horsepower steam boiler, converted into a hot water boiler, will heat a house 20x 60 feet with no glass in the side walls. The house is on a hillside and runs north and south following the grade, with the boiler at the south end. The returns have a drop of four feet, while the flow also runs down about six inches. Be- cause of the grade, I cannot put the flow on the plates and give a fall. The boiler pit is nine feet deep. I want to main- tain a temperature of about 60 degrees at 6 degrees below zero; 23 degrees be- low is the record in this locality. What size of piping should I use and how should I arrange it f G. S. R. — Pa. There should be no difficulty in heat- ing a house 20x60 feet to 60 degrees in zero weather with a 16-horsepower boiler, if it has a grate two feet in diameter. While I should prefer to use three 2%-inch flow pipes and nine 2-inch re- turns, if on account of the low ridge it is not found advisable to run an over- head flow pipe, it will answer if two flows are placed on the side walls with ten 2-inch returns. As a rule, I prefer to run both flow and return pipes down- hill; it will not make much difference, gwiTOHCiiHniiimintiimiHmCTmminoniroimoummiiinwnniwoinwirainwmHniouiyi^ THE SUCCESSFUL FLORIST Does not overlook the importance of heating apparatus that is right.

The actual pitch or slope of the pipes has nothing to do with the circulation, except that it permits the air to escape. For this I prefer to have one inch in ten feet, although, if pains have been taken to grade and support the pipes so that they will not sag, good results may be obtained with one inch in twenty feet or with even less of a slope. Every- thing else being equal, the rapidity of the circulation is determined by the ele- vation of the pipes above the boiler. For this reason, the higher the pipes can be kept, or in other words, the less slope given the pipes, the better will be the circulation, provided the air does not collect. I should use one flow and four returns on each side of the houses, if both side walls are exposed. If one wall is next to the other house, as I infer from the letter, three returns will answer on the Plant Insurance at $10 Price, $10.00 WHAT would happen if your night man fell asleep some night in zero weather?

Orders for the funerals of sev- eral prominent people, including Briga- dier General Philip Eeade and Thomas F. Costello, a wealthy merchant of Lowell, use.d up available cut stock. There have been several weddings. Pot- ted plants, except ferns and a few be- gonias and rubber plants, are conspicu- ous by their absence. Chrysanthemums have been cleaned up as they came in and more could have been used; unless signs fail, there will not be any surplus this season. Geraniums are likely to be scarce this winter and next spring, since during the summer the plants made little growth owing to dry weather. Shortly before the time for taking cuttings, there was a period of heavy rain; consequently the cuttings were soft and tender and did not root well. Al80,-in the spring of 1919 there was such a great retail de- mand for them that many florists found themselves with few plants left for stock. Geraniums will not be plentiful or low in price in 1920. Various Notes. "William G.

PROVIDENCE, R. I. The Market. Business has been practically normal during the last week, about the only im- provement noticeable being in the volume of counter trade in the down- town section. Cooler, darker days have resulted in a slight decrease in supply, but stock of all kinds is coming into market in much better quality. Chrys- anthemums are being used plentifully for all occasions. Weddings are still calling for large quantities of flowers, especially white roses, pf which there is a shortage that has stiffened the price considerably. Various Notes. The monthly meeting of the Ehode Island Horticultural Society was held October 22. The speaker of the evening was Edward I. Farrington, of Boston, who lectured on "What's New in the Garden." Illustrations were shown on the screen of types of flowers that have been Introduced into this country in recent years. Various methods of raising flowers were also shown. Domenico Pegnitelli has commenced the erection of a small greenhouse on Charles street. O. H. Williams was a business visitor in New York and vicinity last week. S. S. Skidelsky, of New York, was in this city last week. L. F. Arnold has started in the retail business at 128 Pettis street. H. A. Kranter, representing M. Van Waveren & Sons, Ltd., of Hillegom, Hol- land, was a business visitor last week. F. ladevola is erecting a small green- house at 372 Hawkins street. William A. Bowers, of Washington street, has adopted as a slogan the phrase, "When vou think flowers — think Bowers." ' W. H. M. WALTHAM, MASS. The Louis J. Eeuter Co., plant broker, is changing its address from Waltham to 15 Cedar street, Watertown P. O., Bos- ton, Mass. In this new location, Mr. Eeu- ter says, they will be convenient to the best of the plant growers around Boston, besides remaining in close touch with the great number of florists in outlying dis- tricts of Boston who are so well known in their different lines as specialists in roses, carnations, etc. It has not been quite a year since they started in this line of business and the beginning has been encouraging. Mr. Eeuter says the business has grown now so that they must have more oflSce room to be able to handle the increasing business in a sat- isfactory manner. They move to the new address November ].

CHICAQO A Glazing Putty of Real Value In all our experience and investigatiOD we had never found a preparation for bulbing over the outside of a greenhouse that was quite satisfactory, until we ran across PERMANITE. This was about four years ago . At that time we set about investigating the merits of PERMANITE and proceeded to watch the results of its application to greenhouse roofs. Last year we were entirely convinced of its high quality and durability, and ac- cepted the western agency for the sale of these goods. We applied PERMANITE to hundreds of greenhouse roofs, over almost every part of the United States. The results obtained were highly satis- factory indeed. Glass roofs of all kinds, both old and new, were made water-tight and air-tight, saving thousands of plants from being spoiled by water dripping on them aud saving many hundreds of tons of coal by making the roofs proof against the wind and storms of winter. We give PERMANITE our unqualified endorsement and recommend it highly for all kinds of glazing. We have a very large stock on hand in our warehouse and can ship imme- diately.

[Continued from pasre !)■<.] Henry Avansino, of the E. W. Mc- Lellan Co., reports heavy shipping of mums of all varieties. J. A. Axell has added several as- sistants to his force. The Ferrari stock of roses, which Mr. Axell handles, is in splendid condition. Victor Ferrari states that he expects a large crop of Russell about December 1. At present he is cutting fine specimens of Colum- bia, Ophelia and Russell. Mrs. R. E. Darbee is shipping all she can handle of mums and violets. She is particularly pleased with her violet crop this year. She has added several new men to her force and improved de- livery facilities by the addition of two new drivers. The other new as- sistants are Fred Ryer, Ernest Dapolli and Gaston La Lance. Miss Leona Gregoire, who has been connected with the Darbee staff for some time, was married October 25 to Peter Stamatis, of this city. The wedding decoration was done by the Darbee shop. A. O. Stein has a number of inter- esting decorations for this week, includ- ing an elaborate outdoor tea in Sacra- mento for Mrs. McClatche and a home wedding in this city. The scene of the tea is Mrs. McClatche 's gardens and gold umbrellas will shade the tables, which are to be decorated with small potted trees of pompons and garlands of chrysanthemums in various golden tones. The decorations for the Sahlcine- Green wedding, scheduled for October 30, were carried out in a color scheme of gold and green. The room in which the ceremony was held was hedged in cypress, with garlands and short medal- lion drops of gold chrysanthemums. The rest of tiie house decorations fol- lowed the autumn color scheme, chrys- anthemums in yellow and bronze pre- dominating. The bouquets were sug- gested by the Magnin group at the re- cent fashion show at the Palace hotel. The bride's bouquet was of white os- trich in fan shape with white butterfly orchids and gardenias, while the brides- maids' bouquets were yellow butterfly orchids mounted on a royal blue os- trich wreath with yellow tulle stream- ers.

The shop of the Nelligan Sisters, at 1203 Sutter street, is doing well, ac- cording to their buyer, Luke J. Usick. Lately their orders have been consid- erably increased by funeral work, in ad- dition to the usual amount of social decoration. A gold window created much interest in the shop of Podesta & Baldocchi last week. A striking and artistic ef- fect was developed with all varieties of chrysanthemums, shading from palest yellow to deepest bronze, forming a vivid background for exquisite yellow butterfly orchids arranged in profusion in a golden basket. Last week Frank D. Pelicano an- nounced his new fern, which he offers for registration under the name of Adi- antum Pclicani. The fern is said to be a marked improvement on Adiantum Roenbecki, which it resembles in habit, but is said to be of superior color and more profitable for cutting. The light green color adds a freshness to its ap- pearance which makes it most desir- able for high-class work.

I have the pleasure to announce that I can offer you Cyclamen from, as they claim, "LARG- EST GROWERS OF FLOWERS AND PLANTS WEST OF THE MISSISSIPPI RIVER." Re- ceived a letter from them dated Oct. 18th where- in they say in part, "Referring to our recent correspondence regarding plants, we would be willing for you to sell our plants. However, vre would have to have you guarantee accounts of parties who do not send cash with orders. We also have some flne Peppers and Cherries. The plants are very good and we know your cus- tomers will be pleased with them." These prices good for 30 days only. Remember stock is scarce. For Instance, a large house in the east recently wrote me that stock in some lines is so scarce that their sales- men leave their order books at home. But these conditions are here and if you believe it or not you shall see them develop as the season ap- proaches. Read as follows: WE ARE OFFERING FOR IMMEDIATE SALE A FINE LOT OF PLANTS.

It might be well to state here that Cyclamen seedlings transplanted will be In short supply for several reasons stated before and am booking orders now to be delivered in season, at $10.00 per 100, $90.00 per 1000, I have been associated with the florist trade for over twenty years and I find, as the late Hon. ROOSEVELT in my hear- ing once said, "I have traveled from one end of the country to the other, back and for^h, and I have just about come to the conclusion that we are all about alike." So with the florists, we ar^ all about alike, we both do well and we both make errors, but there Is one thing that we should have Indelibly impressed in our minds, that the returns for the fiorists have not BEEN SUFFICIENT, so that he may In turn employ labor of the caliber that la so essential to make production greater and of a~T»etter quality. If a florist's return would be gi;eat enough so that he could compete witlv'^tBer lines of trade or business, then he coul4 select his labor instead of the present condition of which I need not go into detail, and there is but one thing that can bring this about, demand a price for your pro- duction and thus you may solve the problem.

[Trsde-mark tggttteni. U. S. Patent OAee.] SOLD UNDER THE GOLDEN RULE OF A MONEY-BACK GUARANTEE When you buy PERMANITE — you know you cannot go wrong because the results are guaranteed; but if for one reason or another you are not quite satisfied, you won't be out one single penny because the Garland guarantee protects you coming and going. It's either satisfaction — 100% service and satisfaction — or your money back if otherwise. That's why the experienced Greenhouse Owner prefers to use PERMANITE, because he knows PERMANITE is not alone the original, but after all, the most dependable and most economical Glazing Cement on the market — and he knows from past use that it will do all — and more — than what we say it will. A trial is all we ask — and just one trial will be suflficient to prove our claim to your utmost and everlasting satisfaction.
