Standard Ball-bearing Hanger as it looks bolted to the rafter. r "V^, J. *♦ •'■ T . nt Hanger Cues Down Elbow Grease FOR a long time we had been using a ball-bear- ing on some of our ventilaiiug gears. Then we equipped a shaft hanger witli it, and can't help wondering why it wasn't done long before it was done. Of course, it makes the apparatus run easier -a lot easier. It does cost a bit more than the old hanger, but what of it? If it takes a lot of the lug and tug out of the venti- lating, what does the (luestion of a little extra on the cost amount to? But don't for a minute compare this ball-bearing hanger with those that have been rushed on the market in competition. Look at the photograph of the parts shown above, and you will see how it is not skimped in any way. In fact, it's made just like a bicycle bearing, or as any other dependable ball-bearing is made. Although there seem to be quite a few parts, its construction is simplicity itself. They all go together easily and fit into a surpris- ingly compact space. If you still prefer the old hangers, we have them. But once you have equipped a run of ridge sash with the ball-bearing ones, you will never go back to the old. This ball-bearing hanger, in combination with our counterbalance gear, cuts elbow grease down to almost no grease at all.

Flowers are scarce and will continue to be scarce until you increase your produc- tion. By not having flowers to sell to the customer who calls to purchase them, you are eliminating a flower buyer. The increased demand for flowers has never been greater. It is up to the florist to hold intact the popularity of flowers and improve it by having on hand an assortment at all times. Plant a Case of Lilies or several cases, on the 1st and 15th of each month and increase your supply. Lilies take little room and bringf h'lg returns.

We have man- aged to fill all regular orders in full and in addition have helped our regular custoniers with extra lots of flowers when wanted, be- sides giving some Roses to new Customers. Our prices charged on shipping orders have averaged less than what we could have sold the stock right here in the market. We have endeavored to help our customers in the mat- ter of prices as much as possible, even at a loss to ourselves. This will continue to be our policy. The supply of roses will depend largely upon the weather conditions, and with a more moderate spell of weather than we have had lately, a larger supply of roses can be expected. For St. Valentine's Day, we urge our customers to send in their orders early, as there will no doubt be a great shortage. Carnations will still continue short, as will the shorter length grade of Roses. All miscellaneous flowers are very scarce, but we will do our best to buy any stock wanted which we do not grow ourselves and have on hand. Greeahones: Hinsdale aid Gregfs Station, III. CHICAGO, ILL.

We have culled our list of commercial sorts just as closely as we dare cull it. We buy the new ones and give them a chance* to show merit, but we do not aim to keep in this list a variety that cannot be grown well by the average grower. If a variety needs special treatment or nursing to make it produce blooms that will sell, we don't grow it and we have not kept in this list those varieties which cannot be finished well with average treatment. The list of Chrysanthemums we are offering for the season of 1920 shows some changes from last season. We have discarded some varie- ties and have kept only such as have shown themselves really needed to maintain a balance of color and season. This selection has eliminated many for which we may have calls during the planting season, but in the list presented we have the superior of the discarded variety.

Exceptionally fine stem witn the foli- age extending to the bloom. Produces an exceedingly high percentage of perfect blooms. Victory. A pure, glistening white with a de- cided waxy luster; fine stem and foliage. By stopping the plants September 10th and securing the bud that develops upon this break five or six weeks later, a fine crop may be had for Thanksgiving and after.

In color a rich shade of red- dish bronze and entirely distinct from any other variety. It was disseminated by us in 1917 and has proved a decided acquisition either as a cut flower or as a pot plant. In habit of growth it is short-jointed and in- clined to be dwarf, but makes good stems from early propagation. The flower is re- flexed when fully open and is at its best just before maturing. Golden Mistletoe (A. N. Pierson, Inc.). This variety, as shown by the name, is a sport of Mistletoe. The parent is our latest flower- ing variety, coming well into December. It is ball-shaped. An excellent companion for the parent. We have grown it in quantity and know that it will be a favorite.

Pierson, Inc.). A true Pompon, clear, bright yellow in color with every desirable attribute in stem, foliage, plant habit and formation of the flower cluster. It comes into bloom about Novem- ber 10th to 15th and holds well on the plant, which is very desirable^ when a vari- ety is grown in large quantities for com- mercial cutting. It follows Golden Climax and precedes Romaine Warren. It is a Pompon variety which will find a welcome with the grower for the wholesale market, having strong, straight stems and bunching nicely. It is the best Pompon variety we have raised or offered for sale. We cut the last for Thanksgiving day trade and they were in perfect condition. Pauline Wilcox (A. N. Pierson, Inc.). The form of the flower classes it as a decorative variety and it is the ideal decorative type. The habit of the plant and the flower sprays are very desirable. The stems are straight and strong and the flowers hold well apart in the clusters. The color is bronze with red and gold mixed, the tips of the petals being lighter, giving a very pleasing com- bination. In bloom November 5tli. It is a gloriously colored variety and there is noth- ing like it. It is distinct and valuable. Helen Andre (A. N. Pierson, Inc.). A beau- tiful, compact, orange-bronze Pompon which POMPON CHRYSANTHEMUMS— Continued blooms around November 20th. The growth is upright, the stems strong, holding the flower erect. Color is very attractive and, as there are no other varieties of this color in bloom at the same season, it will be a profitable one to grow. It is a Thanksgiv- ing day bronze and a good one. Helen Hubbard (A. N. Pierson, Inc.). This is the best crimson decorative we have ever grown. The lower petals are from two to two and one-half inches, in length. The color is a rich, velvety crimson which does not fade. Growth is excellent. There are no other varieties in this color which can compare with it for cutting in sprays. This Harvard crimson is in bloom November ISth. Lorraine Meech (A. N. Pierson, Inc.). Dis- tinctly a novelty. We introduce this vari- ety because so many of our customers have seen it and have asked for plants. Color is dull crimson with a golden-bronze re- verse. The petals curl just enough to show both colors, which gives a very pleasing contrast. When fully open, a small yellow center shows, but this should, nevertheless, be classed as a Pompon. Growth is very food; foliage, dark green right up to the ud. In bloom November 10th. New Pompons Rooted Cuttings: $1.00 per doz., $8.00 per 100. 2% -inch, $1.50 per doz., $10.00 per 100. Becky McLane. In full crop just ready for Thanksgiving day. Could easily have been held to December this year. This gives you an idea of this valuable late-flowering Pom- pon. It is a small bronze, but richly colored and very popular. It is a strong, upright grower and makes good, single plants. The stems are stiff and straight. It will cut real money per square foot and it is a variety the market needs. Christmas GoliL This_ small, golden-yellow, button Pompon was introduced last season. It flowers in early December, but has not proved as strong and healthy this season as It was last. It matured a fair crop and, from selected stock, we shall grow it again. Cometa.

This orange-bronze Single we believe to be the finest of all the single-flowered seed- lings that we have raised. Not only is the color wonderfully fine in daylight, but the richness is greatly enhanced by artificial light. The plant is strong-growing and makes strong stems which carry the flowers well. These are well divided in the clusters. It packs nicely for a Single and we class it as the equal of any single -flowered variety in commerce. It is good for exhibition, for the high-class storeman and for the grower who retails. Evelyn Bosworth (A. N. Pierson, Inc.). We must class this beautiful Novelty as a Sin- gle, but it is not a true Single, having six rows of petals. In habit of plant, it is strong-growing and the flower stems are strong and straight. The flower cluster is large, as the variety makes large sprays and carries buds well down the stem. These flower clusters are well divided and the in- dividual flowers are not crowded. In color it may be classed as a bronze, but with a slight tint of salmon-pink. A very pleasing color and one that is always in demand. In flower November Sth to I5th. Charter Oak (Foster). A clear, bright yellow Single variety which carries its flowers in large, strong- stemmed sprays, bearing from three to five flowers each. It makes a fair sized plant and will class as a good grower, but is not as heavy in foliage as its com- panions, Mrs. E. D. Godfrey, Margaret SINGLE CHRYSANTHEMUMS— Continued Waite and Miss Isabelle. It flowers late, coming into bloom during late November, and is the latest-flowering yellow Single va- riety we have grown or have seen. The form and character of the flower spra^ is ideal and the late-flowering characteristic greatly enhances the value of this to the grower. It would be good at any season and in December it is alone in its class. Katherine Harley (A. N. Pierson, Inc.). The flower is a beautiful light bronze with the tips of the' petals shading to a yellowish bronze. The combination gives a most pleasing shade of bronze. Very strong grow- er, has fine lustrous foliage and is in bloom by November 10th. New Varieties Rooted Cuttings: 7Sc per doz., $6.00 per 100. 2J4-inch, $1.25 per doz., $8.00 per 100. Mrs. E. M. Home. Light bronze-yellow shaded old-^old. The flowers, which are flat in, form, are produced in good- sized, grace- ful sprays which bunch well. Growth vigor- ous and erect. Matures November Sth to 10th. Molly Whitmore. Deep, golden-bronze, effect- ively suffused with terra cotta; distinct, deep yellow center. The well-formed flow- er carries three rays of petals which incurve slightly. This is a desirable trait where they are subject to shipping conditions or considerable handling. The growth being erect in character, this variety may be planted closer than the more branching kinds. Peggy Bulkeley. We consider this variety one of the prettiest in our collection. The color is a soft yet luminous pink, changing as the flower matures to a delicate mauve- pink. The blooms are large, averaging four rays of petals which recurve gracefully from a golden-yellow center. The growth is vig- orous and erect, producing large sprays which show the individual flowers to the best possible advantage. An ideal cut flower or pot plant variety. Matures November 10th to 15th.

A Brutus Lilac Caprice Butler's Caprice Purple Caprice Kathleen Thompson White Cai^ce Lady Lydia Yellow Caprice Early-flowering Chrysanthemums for Outdoor Growing The question of hardiness in the Chrysan- themum family is such that to call these hardy, as we have formerly done, is unfair, because so much depends upon the character of the soil and the drainage. Too much cover- ing in Winter has ruined more plants than a cover of any kind has saved. Some firms class these as Decorative varie- ties. Several in the list do well indoors, as among the Pompons and Singles there are those which do well outdoors. The varieties listed have larger blooms than the larger flowered Pompons, unless otherwise described. NOVELTY 2H-inch, ISc each, $1.50 per doz., $10.00 per 100. Ruth Cumming (A. N. Pierson, Inc.). To those to whom the colors of Autumn appeal and who grow Chrysanthemums in the open, this novelty of our own raising will be wel- come. We have been raising seedlings from Normandie, which is the finest example of the early-flowering outdoor type and this reddish bronze, decorative type seedling from N9rmandie has all the desirable char- acteristics of an outdoor variety. It' has proven hardy in New England. It is dwarf and compact in growth. It suckers freely, making heavy clumps. It withstands the early frosts without injury. From October 15th to November 10th it has been a mass of color. ^ It cuts and bunches nicely. Out-of- ^ioors it is at home and indoors it will bloom early and give you a fine early bronze for the market.

Hazel St., Youngstown, Ohio SUCCESSORS TO H. H. CADE Hamburg Late Pink Chrysanthemum This photograph was taken December 28. 1919, and will give a good idea of what H ^MBURG LATE PINK, looks like when grown to single stems and planted six inches each wa). Hamburg: Late Pink is an im- proved late pink Maud Dean, having more petals and, if grown for late, will hardly ever show an open center. The average grower of Chysanthemums must have varieties which are easy to han- dle, and from which he can cut as near 100% of perfect blooms as possible. Hamburg Late Pink has been grown for the last four years, and produces a very high proportion of good flowers. It is not an exhibition variety, but for late pink is one of the best for commercial purposes. It can be had in blojm the latter part of November, by tak- ing an early bud, but some of the flowers will show open centers. By selecting late buds, after October 1 , most of the flowers are cut during December, and would advise lo select late buds, as the later buds will hardly ever show an open center, and some llowers can be had even in January. Keeping qualities are excellent and where a graceful pink flower is wanted, Hamburg Late Pink cannot be surpassed. Hamburg Late Pink will be disseminated in the Spring of 1920. Plants will be ready March 1, 1920, and all orders will be filled in rotation.

Each is the result of a quarter century of Canna breeding by our Mr. Wintzer, who has developed more varieties of Cannas in commerce today than probably all other hybridizers together. Mr. Wintzer says these two, each in its class, are the best he has achieved. One is a burning scarlet, the other a crystal white. Grown separately or near each other in contrast, they attract the most enthu- siastic admiration of all the Cannas in our collection of over a hundred varieties. To enable every florist to work up his own stock of these Twin Winners we are making a special offer, as below. Order early; it will cause us both pain if we have to send back our regrets and your money. The President This immense new flaming scarlet has come into wider use more quickly than any other Canna we ever introduced. It is an offspring of the famous Firebird. The President leads the red varieties in the quality and also the quantity of its bloom. The flowers are 7 inches across; the in- dividual petals are firm and long standing, and do not burn, and the trusses stand up stiff on strong stems. The foliage is rich green and burn- proof in the hottest weather. Height, 4 feet. One, 50c; 10, $3; 25, $6; 100 for $20, net, f. o. b. West Grove. Snow Queen Unquestionably the queen of all white Cannas. Mr. Wintzer has been striving especially for a per- fect white Canna for many years. He sfiys Snow Queen far excels anything he has succeeded in getting heretofore. The individual flowers are 6 mches across, the petals 2^ inches broad. There is an occasional hint of pink, in faint dots, in the petals, but from a few feet away the effect is a crystal, dazzling white. The large bloom clusters are borne in the greatest abundance, held well above the luxuriant foliage. Height, 4 feet. Price : 1, $1; 10, $6; 25, $12; $40.00 per 100 Also, There's The Super-Six Set While you're sending for the Snow Queen and President, include also a Super-Six set, 6 bulbs each of these six Super Lily-Cannas. 100 1000 CITY OF PORTLAND, 4^ ft.

Concordia, Kansas— "We have been considering for some time carrying a talking machine as a side line but couldn't make up our minds just which one to go after until The Review came today.

Worcester, Mass.— "lam going to erect an up-to-date store in the spring. Feel as though music would complete the line, as we anticipate carrying a line of birds and goldfish." Provo, Utah— "It is just the thing I have been trying to find to handle in my store, as I have a fine display space and at the present time have three diflferent lines under con- sideration to place in my store. However, they do not seem to be the reliable phonograph that I feel we should handle to keep up the prestige of our store, and yours sounds like the real thing to me." Petersburg, Va.— "I have been considering the addition of phonographs for over a year, but have been unable to get a line on anything really worth while not already being han- dled in this territory." This certainly is convincing. Milady won't earn a cent for you until it is on your floor — that's when your profits start. A telegram now may save you disappointment.

Model IX Music lovers judge a phonograph by two things — appearance and sound. By both tests Milady will prove perfect. CABINET— The Milady Cabinet embodies everything that is beautiful— everything that is uniaue. The superior craftsmanship will appeal to even the most inexperienced buyer. Its exauisite finish reflects its finer qualities. Made of solid mahogany, gak or walnut, with no substitution of birch or gum even in the solid parts. UNIVERSAL TONE ARM— The tone arm is the medium by which perfect reproduction of tones is carried over to the ear of the music lover. Through a process of elimination the Stratford universal tone arm and reproducer has been selected in keeping with our highfstandard of quality. It will play any disc record produced. STEPHENSON MOTOR— The compact power plant of the Milady combines the three essential features in the Stephenson precision-made motor; i. e., am- ple power, an even, steady delivery or drive and a smooth, noiseless action. TONE MODULATOR- Through the tone modulator the volume of sound is always under your control. Gently or with great volume as you desire. A strikingrefinement over ordinary instruments is the ingenious tone modulator of the Milady phonograph. AUTOMATIC STOP— When given the slightest pressure automatically re- leases spring and stops record when played. Height Width Depth - 50 inches - 25 inches - 25 inches Model IX Model VII CABINET— Made of solid mahogany, oak or walnut— no substi- tution of birch or gum as often found in other makes. The superior craftsmanship of the Milady prevails in the complete construction of the cabinet work. The superb piano finish combines to make it a thing of beauty. UNIVERSAL TONE ARM— The famous Stratford universal tone arm and reproducer is used in the Milady. It will play any record on the market, giving the player the choice of his favorite stars. STEPHENSON MOTOR —This equipment plays five ten-inch records with one easy winding. The Stephenson motor combines the three essential features vital to the motor of a good phonograph; ample power, an even, steady delivery or drive and a smooth, noise- less action. TONE MODULATOR— The improved tone modulator of the Milady is one of striking refinement. It controls the volume of sound— producing an increased or suppressed volume as desired. AUTOMATIC STOP— Another factor elevating the Milady is its automatic stop. Given the slightest pressure, it automatically re- leases a spring, bringing the record to a stop.

Valentine's day offers returns in proportion to the efforts of florists to secure business for that occa- sion. Timely tips to the puilic through local newspapers will continue this holiday's business on the upgrade for florists. ROM a day obsolete in the minds of those above the years of interest in frilled and tinseled paper mes- sages and colored comics, St. Valentine's day has become an occasion of some importance. "Whether this change is due chiefly to the oscillating whims of the public at large or whether it has been mainly the result of the florists' advertising campaigns in behalf of this day during the last half-dozen years or so, is a question not necessary to an- swer. Sufficient for the trade is the fact that interest in this day of heart interest has undergone something of a revival, for the best heralds of the heart are flowers. Easy to Advertise. That is the reason florists have found newspaper publicity for St. Valentine's day such a paying investment. The oc- casion is ready-made. Its observance is old; its tradition is widespread. No propaganda is needed to disseminate the knowledge of February 14. Whether a florist's customers are youthful or aged, they all can look back at their school- days, when they made purchases for that day of frilly, lacy pieces of in- genuity housing sentimental verses, or The Most Acceptable Valentines are of FLOWERS Our Large Stock Offers a Wide Selection at Moderate Prices Best Double Violets $1.50 per Hundred btta kUAmK sii'^ji)9i:i\m^^ CORN BORER EDICT QUESTION ILLINOIS EMBARGO. New Englanders Ask Exceptions. Members of the trade are questioning the need and application of the restric- tions in the recent proclamation by Governor Lowden, of Illinois, excluding shipments of certain stock from New York and the New England states. The proclamation, which appeared in full on page 108 of The Review for January 15, prohibited the importation into Illinois after January 20, 1920, of "corn, broom corn, celery, dahlias, chrys- anthemums, gladioli and geraniums," grown in New England and New York, except seed corn under certain condi- tions. S. E. Spencer, of Woburn, Mass., who writes that no corn borers are found in the corms of gladioli, the roots of chrysanthemums or the tubers of dah- lias, and that the local Maasachusetts embargo does not include them, inter- prets the Illinois restriction as apply- ing only to the cut blooms of the flowers named in the proclamation. But P. A. Glenn, chief inspector of the division of plant industry in the Illinois department of agriculture, writes, in response to The Review's inquiry, that "the governor's proclamation refers to all parts of dah- lias, gladioli, chrysanthemums and ge- raniums, except the seeds. ' * F. H. B. More Liberal Than State. So that, just when reports from the federal Department of Agriculture and from other sources, as summarized in The Review for January 22, indicate that the danger from the European com borer is much less than had been sup- posed, the Illinois restriction is shown to be exceedingly tight. Mr. Spencer also calls attention to the fact that dry gladiolus bulbs of any size were shown to be safe for shipment to the satisfac- tion of the Federal Horticultural Board and were not included in the embargo placed upon the New England section. If the F. H. B. can be convinced, surely one need not be discouraged from approaching state boards. A. N. Pier- son, Inc., of Cromwell, Conn., addressed the following letter January 28 to the entomologist of the Illinois state ex- periment station, at Urbana: We have receired a copy of the procUmatloa Isued by Oovemor Lowden under date of Jan- uary 2, 1920, stating that it wiU be nnlawfol oa and after January 20 to Import into the state of Illinois chrysanthemums and a number of other Items. We believe that the Illinois experiment sta- tion has made a mistake in declaring this quar- antine, and we believe that a quarantine on oat- door chrysanthemums would, perhaps, be Justt- fled, although we have little or no knowledge of the com borer. We are given to understand that it does not exist in the state of Connecticut. We do not know of an authentic case of com borer within 100 miles of us. We do not grow and ship field-grown clumps and we know that the majority of the New England nurseries make a business of shipping goods of that character for outside use. We have had a fight with chrysanthemum gall midge, but our establishment ts free from it and has been for the last fourteen months. But we have continued to use cyanide gas and are using cyanide regularly. We cannot see any danger to the corn crops of Illinois and the west from chrysanthemum cuttings from sand, that are grown entirely In a greenhouse. We believe that your quarantine shoOTd be modified to allow cuttings which are greenhonse-grown to enter the state upon the filing with you of a certificate to the effect that our township, our greenhoases and our own Immediate locality are not infested with the European com borer. Modifications may be made in the HH- 32 The Florists^ Review Febhuary 5, 1920 nois embargo under the iiifluence of trade representations, although no rul- ings have yet boen made as to excep- tions by the state authorities. yv»7jtxsyL^tj|»j:^iis^[^[^txs^t^ivs/y TATE'S TIPS Wi NEXT WINTER'S SUCCESS.

The entire day's work is done in the wholesale market in a few hours in the morning; in fact, the major part of the stock is sold before it comes to the market and it is then simply a case of filling the orders that have been taken subject to the stock being pro- curable. After that, the day's rush is over. There is never a day that someone does not have to be disappointed, and no relief seems to be in sight. The de- mand for stock of good quality still holds far above the supply. Now, in any line of business where orders have to be turned down every day for want of stock to fill them, is there anything to do but bend every effort to get more stock? I admit that the production of flowers, as I have been frequently re- minded, is entirely different from most other lines of business; for instance, a manufacturer need only get new ma- chinery, which can often be had from stock, and if the raw material is to be had, can go on manufacturing his ar- ticle, while the florist has to plant his crops and then wait for nature, with his assistance, to develop them. That is just this point I want to emphasize. Plan Now for the Record Crop. We are now in February; in about three months the florist will be prepar- ing to plant his outdoor crops. The important question to settle right now is: Are you going to give these crops the proper study and consideration, or are you going to plant the same old stock you have been in the habit of growing year after year! Here is the opportunity of increasing production without the investment of any great amount of capital. We have only to remember that a few months back those who had sfock of good quality had no trouble in disposing of it at handsome returns, while those whose stock was inferior often got no returns at all for it. History is going to repeat itself this summer, and the florist who sees his neighbor reaping the reward of his labor and forethought, while he is still in the same old rut, will have no one to blame but himself. There is still ample time to prepare. Everyone knows what line of stock he can handle best; only see that what you do produce is the best quality of its kind. Grow the Best in Every Bench. The florist this summer should make every available inch of ground that he has give a good account of itself; not one bench in the houses should lie idle. If you could have heard as often as I did last summer, "Good stock is scarce, ' ' I feel that everyone would produce nothing but the best. I have heard the above phrase quoted when a layman would have thought that the market was glutted, and yet anyone who understood what good stock was would not blame the retailer for not liandling what was offered. Grow any crop you are successful with. It may be gladioli; it will pay you to discard those old varieties that you have been growing, in many cases over since you have been in business. Make up your mind to grow nothing but the best named varieties, such as Peace, America, Schwaben and Panama. They will pay well for the time and trouble you may devote to them. Or it may be asters, such as Queen of the Market. Confide in Your Commission Man. Go to your commission man and talk it over with him. He will be only too glad to advise you as to the best colors to grow. I read a short time ago in the Country Gentleman an article, the gist of which was that it is better for the business man to be advised by his banker than by his attorney. There is no better man to advise the grower than the man who sells his product. He is, in a way, just as much interested us you are yourself; the larger returns he makes to you, the larger his own returns are. He is in position to know what stock moves best, what varieties are the best to handle and what colors are the most sought. It will pay any grower to make a confidant of his com- mission man; he is in position to give you points on production throughout the year. There is just one more point I wish 1o call to growers' attention. In my in- vestigation of the market last summer, the scarcest period of the season was from June J5 to August 1. Any crop you can have in bloom at that time will be as good as money in the bank. There is a big summer ahead; it is up to the grower what the harvest shall be. Tate. SOWING GYPSOPHILA. What is the best way to grow gypso- phila? Can it be grown on benches inside? If grown outside, should the seed be sown in flats and transplanted in rows outside, or should the seed be planted outside in rows? When is the best time to sow the seed? M. G.— 111. Gypsophila elegans does well under glass. Sow the seeds in shallow flats and, when large enough to handle, either transplant into benches three inches apart each way or, better still, use flats containing four inches of rather light but rich soil and prick off the seedlings two inches apart each way. Stand these on shelves in a temperature of 50 to 54 degrees at night and they will grow and flower splendidly. In order to have a succession of bloom, sow the seeds once a fortnight. For culture in the open there is no great advantage in transplanting seedlings. Better sow the seeds thinly in shallow drills, cov- ering lightly. Sowings may be made in your latitude from May 1 until July 1. C. W. j^JMMIU.mM^liLfflMiU.aMl^^ ONE MORE 7it7^ffiy^ffiffflfy^?ify^|g^|jy^|g^i^ IRIS SOCIETY FORMED. At least seventy persons attended an enthusiastic meeting for the organiza- tion of the American Iris Society at the New York Botanical Garden January 29, 1920, and the following officers were elected to serve until the annual meet- ing in the spring: President, J. C. Wister, Philadelphia; vice-president, William A. Peterson, Chicago; treas- urer, Frank H. Presby; secretary, R. S. Sturtevant, Wellesley Farms, Mass.; regional vice-presidents, S. B. Mitchell, of California; Dr. F. E. Bennett, of On- tario; T. A. Kenning, of Minneapolis, Minn.; Mrs. Samuel H. Taft, of Cincin- nati, O.; B. Y. Morrison, of Washington, D. C, and Floyd Bralliar, of Nashville, Tenn. On the board of directors are also Dr. H. A. Gleason, B. H. Farr, Wyo- missing, Pa.; Edwin C. Shaw, Harry A. Norton, M. J. Hendrickson and James Boyd. There are about 200 charter members representing iris interests from Califor- nia to England, from Canada to the south, and it is hoped that this will be but the nucleus of a far larger associa- tion. A check list of over 1,000 varie- ties of the bearded iris has already been compiled and standards for collection of the nonbulbous species will be started at the New York Botanical Garden this spring; an opportunity for similar trial of the bulbous iris would be of great advantage. The English, Spanish and Dutch iris are those which are usually considered florists' flowers and, with the enforcement of Quarantine 37, in- formation as to their cultural needs and as to the opportunities for growing them commercially within the United States is much needed. Other species of iris may also be forced and if better known would be more largely used. Garden visitors often carry home bouquets of iris and they would make an equal ap- peal in a florist's window. It is hoped that interested parties will send notice of their experience in handling and sell- ing the iris in its various forms. It is only by coordinating the notes of many that we can offer accurate information to all. The dues for active membership are $3 a year. There will be monthly notes on iris and information and notes on any phase of the subject will be welcomed from all. Inquiries and correspondence will receive prompt attention from the secretary, R. S. Sturtevant, Wellesley Farms, 95, Mass. TW-myif-^iwii ' Tl."

Florists everywhere are seeking new and odd ways to give their window displays that touch of simplicity so much required to attract attention. Why not use a few perennials f Something new, odd and attractive can be devised for the vidndow with the help of these old-fashioned flowers. Some of the early-flowering perennials force quite easily. Mertensia virgini- ca, Primula veris and Euphorbia epi- thymoides will force without any trouble in a house of 60 to 65 degrees. With the primula and euphorbia, one should, however, be careful to use only well rooted and strong clumps or strong pot-grown plants potted not earlier than September. Euphorbia epithymoides should be forced and sold along with our other Easter-flowering plants. Its bloom is a beautiful chrome yellow, with hardy and bright foliage that will follow along well to the top of each stem. This plant was displayed in the Grand Central Palace, New York city, among a few rocks at the entrance of a rock garden and daily held the attention of many visitors, who inquired its name and where it could be obtained. J. G. Tinger. CALL FOB ABBITBATION. Grow the stock and get the price; don't get the price and deliver poor stock. If I wish any plants, I confer with myself and The Eeview and then enclose check with my order, except to firms where my credit is known. It is then up to the sellers and I believe that some of them take their own sweet time. I bought some rooted cuttings of geraniums last August. Delivery was made in November and, believe me, I had to use a pair of tweezers to hold them while potting. Actually they were not over one inch long, at $17.50 per thousand; they are still in 2-inch pots. At the same time I ordered and received geraniums from California, cut- tings three inches to six inches long and 100 per cent O. K. Most of these are now fine plants in 5-inch pots. After over two months' wait, I re- ceived my order of 300 pelargoniums and I believe I shall have hardly seventy-five living plants. They were packed well and arrived safely, but if the plants left the seller in the same condition as they reached the buyer, it seems to me like getting money under false pretenses. Some firms say they will book your orders for so-and-so, delivery three to five months later, if you send one-third cash. It is always cash. Why should your money be working for someone elset The seller should get the order when stock is ready; notify buyer to send cash for it and then fill the order as advertised. Now the time is at hand when a per- son wants the stock. The reports all over this country indicate the best trade up to date, plenty of money and more buyers. If there were an agree- ment among all the florists to have cer- tain men or firms (several in each state), where a person could send a sample of the shipment, for approval or disapproval, all to abide by their de- cision, then buyers would have greater confidence and order more freely. W. M. Tiplady. CEMENT COATING FOB BENCHES. I was interested in the letter of L. E. S. in The Review of January 15 re- garding the coating of benches with cement. My grandfather, E. B. Lewis, who propagated the Niagara grape from its early days, had all his benches cov- ered with about half an inch of cement. I have also used it myself. It should be mixed thin enough so that it can be spread evenly with a trowel. Before it sets hard, punch a few holes in it where the cracks in the boards come, in order to provide, drainage. ^ I think it will double the life ht the benches, but it cannot be used CANDYTUFT AND FEVEBFEW. Can you give me any information about the proper time to sow seed of candytuft and feverfew? Also, can you tell me the best method of growing the plants to get a crop of flowers for Memorial dayt H. F. C. — Mass. Candytuft for flowering at Memorial day should be sown at once. Buy the mammoth spiral or as good a strain of seed as possible, in order to secure large, handsome spikes. Pot off the seedlings in 2% -inch pots before planting out in beds or benches. Any good soil which will suit roses, mums or carnations wUl suit candytuft, and a temperature of 45 to 50 degrees at night is needed. Higher temperatures can be given as the season advances if the plants seem at all late, it being best to shade the glass a little when doing this extra pushing. Place the plants 10x10 or 9x12 inches apart, in order to give them the needed space for development. Feverfew from seed is undesirable, as so large a proportion will come single land only doubles have any market value. I would suggest buying rooted cuttings or plants from small pots and planting them in benches before March 1. Grow feverfew moderately cool; 45 degrees at night is ample. A soil similar to that used for candytuft will be found ideal. C. W.

H. Preenen, of J. Schilpzand & Sons, Hillegom, Hol- land. "True, we are as eager for the American trade as ever we were, but, having pooled our interests, we feel much more independent and until the purchaser gets into a similar boat it will not be so easy sailing as formerly, for, while he acts only as an individual, we act collectively and consequently have the stronger pull. It is in the interests of every grower to produce bulbs of as high quality as possible and, judging from all reports, our cus- tomers may look for as good a crop as last year. The summer season will be a deciding factor." • • • • O. E. Steinkamp, of Baur & Stein- kamp, Indianapolis, Ind., expressed the opinion that Euth Baur would piove as good in every way to the continentals as it was at home. Some 6,000 rooted cuttings have been pre- pared for distribution in care of C. Engelmann, of Saffron Walden, Eng- land, who will undertake this benevo- lent task. "While Euth Baur should yield a golden harvest to everyone who tries it, we have another carnation which we believe will match it in popu- larity. It is the result of a cross be- tween Matchless and White Wonder and possesses the habit of the former and a bloom resembling the latter. We have named it Harvester and pro- pose to send it out next year, realizing that, in these times especially, one can- not afford to hide such a find as we believe this is. ' ' • • • • Homer Wiegand, of A. Wiegand's Sons Co., Indianapolis, commented upon the great popularity of the floral bas- ket at funerals and attributes it to the advanced development of taste. It is highly welcome at this time of scarcity, when every bloom is made to show up to advantage. Adiantum is freely used; it gives a graceful finish and is worth the difference in cost. George Wiegand is making a brief sojourn in California and writes en- thusiastically concerning the climate, other conditions being somewhat similar to those in the east. "If we had the time," remarked Homer Wiegand, "we might ship out our family of alligators, which have been a big attraction; in fact, our patrons seem as much inter- ested in them as when we first received them. They are really the only peace- ful and contented subjects in the es- tablishment. ' ' • • • • H. W. Bieman 's Sons, of Indianapolis, are the fortunate owners of a begonia which possesses the combined qualities of Vernon, Erfordii and Lorraine.

When should cinerarias have their last shift to have them in bloom for Easter f They are now in 4-inch pots and need shifting. I have been keeping them in a temperature of 45 to 50 de- grees. I cannot keep them any colder, as I have other plants in the house, such as peas and stock plants of gera- niums. H. H. S. — ^Md. Cinerarias will need quite cold cul- ture to hold them back until Easter. If you had a really cold house, espe- cially one with a north aspect, this would be easier. I would suggest that yOB ksep your cinerarias in the coldest part of 'the house. They will soon need some shade, which the other plants will not require. If you have a close frame or pit, which can be kept frost-proof, there is no . good reason why you can- not transfer your cinerarias there after March 1. They will do without fire heat after that date, but will need protection on cold nights and more careful water- ing. C. W. ULIUM OIOANTEXTM. I have received my giganteum lily bulbs and have put them in flats or boxes six inches deep. How should they be treated from now onf I have three warm houses in which I can keep the temperature at 60 degrees during zero weather, also one cold house, which can be kept above freezing. Shall I keep the boxes outside for a few weeks and then bring them into the cold house and later into the warmer house? Can I have these bulbs in bloom at Easter f They are in rich soil, with loam and manure. B. G. C— W. Va. If you are planning to grow your lilies in boxes for Easter, I should strongly advise against it, as you will get vastly better results from pot cul- ture. Pot singly in 6-inch pots, or, if the bulbs are small, 5-inch pots will an- swer. Use a good loam, but leave out manure or fertilizer. Old mum soil will do quite well. After potting, place them below the benches in your warm house or stand them on the benches several pots deep and cover them with straw or hay to prevent their drying out. There is no need to water them, if the loam is fairly moist. Giganteums need all the heat you can give them from start to finish. Many are ruined by be- ing placed in a cold house at the start and, in addition, by being kept too moist. Eun the plants on the dry side until the pots are nicely filled with roots; then apply water more freely. Place the plants on benches as soon as they are nicely started. Fumigate oc- casionally to keep down green aphis, spray on clear, warm days and remem- ber that heat is needed right along to flower them for Easter, which this year comes April 4. C. W. HYDRANGEAS FOB EASTEB. Will my Hydrangea Badiant come in for Easter f I planted them December 27 and grew them under the bench until started and then I put them on the bench in a temperature of 60 degrees. I have been giving them liquid manure once a week, but they are growing slowly. They have their fourth leaves on now. H. H. S. — Md. The hydrangeas in a night tempera- ture of 60 degrees should flower for Easter. Give them all possible light and sun. Liquid manure would be more (harmful than beneficial unless the pots are well filled with roots. This could hardly be possible if you potted them as recently as December 27. Wait until the sides of the pots have an abundance of active roots and then feed regularly, especially, while the flower heads are developing. C. W. OTAESA FOB EASTEB. I have a lot of otaksa hydrangeas which I brought into the greenhouse be- fore the frost. November 1 they were placed under a bench in a temperature of 40 degrees at night and 50 degrees during the day. The leaves are nearly all dried up, but the tips are still green. I have watered them just enough to keep them alive. Kindly advise me what treatment I should give them. When should they be benched in a house of 50 degrees at night and 65 degrees during the day to have them in bloom for Easter, also for Memorial dayf G. S. F.— Pa. The French hydrangeas can be forced into bloom for an early Easter, such as will come April 4, but otaksa needs a longer season and does not stand forc- ing as well as the newer French type. Furthermore, the French varieties come in a variety of pleasing colors and are, therefore, much preferred at Easter. I should not advise you to force your plants for Easter, but rather hold them back for Memorial dayi At that time there is always an excellent call for otaksa. For Memorial day, keep your plants cool and as near dormant as you can until March 1; then place them in a temperature of 50 degrees at night and they will flower on time. If, how- ever, you are extremely anxious to flow- er some of them for Easter, place them in a temperature of 45 to 50 degrees now. When growth is well started run them 5 degrees warmer, and later, as flower heads start to show, they can have 60 degrees at night until the flow- ers show color. Then keep them some- what cooler. Water them freely and feed with liquid manure once a week as soon as the pots are well filled with roots. C. W. NEW YOBK. The Market. The market is still suffering from a shortage in the supply of cut flowers, without any prospect of immediate re- lief. This condition, naturally, is keep- ing prices on a high plane. The influ- enza epidemic does not seem to have in- creased the demand to any great extent. Boses seem to be scarce; in fact, so limited is the supply that much stock is sold before arrival. All varieties are affected, particularly the short grades. American Beauty is bringing holiday prices, the best in the special grades selling for $1.25 each. The best grades of hybrid teas bring 25 to 75 cents each, the latter for the Scott Key variety. About 50 cents each is ■ asked for Co- lumbia, Premier and Hadley. The supply of carnations is short for this time of year. A small supply of Laddie moves quickly at 25 cents each. Mrs. C. W. Ward and Benora are bring- ing 20 cents for the best flowers, with ordinary varieties at 15 cents, and in- ferior ones, in small quantities, 12 cents. Cattleyas are fairly plentiful, but, with the shortage in other staples, prices continue high; $9 per dozen is asked for the best, while the lower grades are sold for $3. Few spray orchids are ar- riving, but there is a good supply of cypripediums. Lilies of the valley are plentiful, but sales drag considerably at $S to $15 per hundred sprays. Easter lilies are scarce. There is a moderate supply of garde- nias. There is a good supply of bulbous flowers, but not nearly so many as might be expected at the opening of February. Tulips are bringing 75 cents to $2 per bunch; Paper Whites, $1 to $1.25 per bunch, and daffodils, $1.50 to $2 per bunch. Freesias are arriving and move well. Callas are in good demand, with the best bringing as high as $7.50. There are a few hyacinths on the market and also a small supply of iris. Acacias bring $3 to $5 per bunch and are in good supply. There is a fair supply of herbaceous flowers, including snapdragons, bou- vardias and calendulas. Sweet peas are plentiful, but the quality is not good, short-stemmed flowers being much in evidence. Pansies, mJgnonettaf irafr flowers, myosotis and daisies are in good supply and bring good prices. Various Notes. John Young, secretary of the S. A.

Despite the fact that there was but lit- tle sunshine, the supply of stock showed an increase. There has been a large de- mand for funeral flowers, and some of the local florists have resorted to arti- ficial stock. The wholesalers find it hard to divide the supply evenly among the trade, because there is seldom enough stock to go around. Carnations and sweet peas hardly touch the tables when the growers bring them in, and, in some cases, the members of the trade DAVID G. GRILIfOBTZEB. THE recent election of David G. Grillbortzer as vice-president of the American Carnation Society may be regarded by him and by the trade jointly as a silver wedding present. It was just twenty-five years ago, when he was 16 years old, that he began a five years' apprenticeship with J. Louis Loose, in Alexandria, Va., his native town. After that he joined his brother, J. Fred Grillbortzer, in business under the firm name of Grillbortzer Bros., with four houses 30x100 feet. Three years later his brother died and he continued the business under his own name. When, in June, 1918, he had an opportunity to buy out the business of Mr. Loose, he had approximately 150,000 feet of glass. His purchase doubled his holdings and added the store, on Fourteenth street, of the Washington Floral Co., of which he is now head. Mr. Grillbortzer is an ex-president of the Florists' Club of Washington and a member of the Alexandria Chamber of Commerce, of the Masonic lodge of which George Washington was the first master and of other associations and orders. meet the growers outside to claim their share. Paper Whites are plentiful, but roses are still scarce and prices remain high. The market has been well supplied with greens. Various Notes. Fred Leapley is back on the job again after several days' illness. Marche & Co. have been busy with decorating work during the last week. They had several large casket covers. Mr. White is back again after his ill- ness. L. E. Hoover reports an unusually large amount of funeral work on hand. He has noticed a large increase in the demand for various plants. One of the many fine pieces of work which the Oehmler Floral Co. turned out last week was a beautiful basket made up with roses, orchids, freesias, Enchantress carnations and Asparagus plumosus. Tbe basket stood over four feet high and was tied with a piece of pink ribbon, bearing the words, "Ac- counting Division," in gold letters. The basket was presented to the new as- sistant secretary of the Treasury De- partment by the clerks in the account- ing division, of which he was formerly chief.

Her arrival kept the new father from attending the carnation /meeting at Chicago. The florist who knows his costs does iiot complain of high prices. He can tell without guessing when he is making a profit and when he isn't. When he does, he is satisfied, and when he doesn't, he •can ask his customers for more money without apology. The engravers' trust at Chicago Feb- ruary 1 advanced the prices of halftones and zinc etchings about one-third on the average. The smallest halftone now costs $3.75. The Review has bought thousands of them, before the employers' associa- tion and the workers ' union got together, at $1 to $1.25. That the peak of commercial and in- dustrial activity in this country had been reached for the time and that from now on a gradual reduction would be recorded, was the view expressed recently by a leading banker, formed in spite of the admittedly great prosperity apparent in many lines of business. Perhaps he isn't batting 1,000 as a prognosticator, but the wise florist is, nevertheless, laying money in the savings bank and dearing up col- lections before doudy financial weather suoceeda the sunshine. Having witnessed what has been ac- complished on this side of the water, British horticulturists are discussing schemes of cooperative advertising. Did you ever notice that the appear- ance of a greenhouse more or less cor- responds with its financial condition f When its looks run down, its profits run down, too. Skilled help never was abundant in the florists* trade. Just now larger de- mand for good men and the attractions in other lines of business make them seem scarcer than before. Canaries have proved a profitable side line for retail florists and no doubt a considerable business could be developed if some florists' supply house were to handle the birds in a wholesale way. The American workman has fallen off twenty or thirty per cent in productive effort compared with pre-war man-power output, asserts a prominent corporation head, a condition which "transcends in its vital importance all questions of strikes, wages, prices and, in fact, everything else." If continued long, he added, prosperity will surely be destroyed. Greater production should be the aim of everyone, whether he is growing flowers or rolling steel. NEWS. WKat is news? Some think news is just information about the outside world. But advertising, too, is news. It is information that may be of per- sonal moment. A paper without advertising is but half a newspaper. BXJY NOW! There is every indication that green- house glass will be extremely difficult to procure during the summer. Even now it requires considerable scouting to find any quantity of 16x18 and it is a well known fact that production, closely regulated at all times, practically ceases as soon as warm weather comes. Without the wish to discourage any would-be builder, the directions for building a greenhouse this season are like the well known recipe for making hare stew — first catch your hare. Be- fore you buy anything else, buy the glass. CAN YOU? Can any of the readers of The Beview inform us where and by whom any sort of flower pot washing machine is manu- factured! H. E. & C. W. K. AN UNUSUAL JANUABY. No one in the trade ever saw a Jan- uary quite like that just closed, a month of Christmas prices in many cities from the flrst to the thirty-first day. It is stated by some firms that their January business exceeded their December sales, an incredible thing in years past. In the same breath, or the next, they assert that flowers were as plentiful during the last month as they ever were in the first thirty-one days of the year. The de- mand, exceeding anything before experi- enced at such a time, accounts for the condition of the markets and the high prices. Combination of circumstances may be charged with the responsibility. All autumn the public spent money for flowers. During the year 1919 the de- mand held stronger throughout than ever before. So when, immediately after Christmas, sickness created a call in ad- dition to the normal demand, already 3trong, flowers could not be obtained to fill all wants. All retail stores in the larger cities, where the sickness and mortality is greatest, have been heavily rushed. And the end is not in sight. A year ago the trade believed its ex- perience of a strong demand would not be repeated. Instead, it has been ex- ceeded in the unusual month just closed. HOW MUCH DOBS IT PAY? The day has passed when the question is asked about advertising, "Does it pay!" There are no longer doubting Thomases on that score. The question under consideration today is, "How much does it payf" Advertising has come to be looked upon, not as an expense, but as an in- vestment, comparable to stocks and bonds, and similarly dependable for a return on one's mone|r. And, just as there are various kinds of stocks and bonds — good, bad and indifferent — so there are various kinds of advertising. The florist who has money to invest in securities looks for the sort which will be certain to yield him the best re- turns. Moreover, he takes no one's unsupported word for it, but learns the real facts for himself. Just as the investor learns how to dis- tinguish in his own mind desirable from undesirable securities, so the advertiser, who exercises a similar care in investing his money nowadays, can tell with his own eyes what medium, or mediums, will give him the gn'eatest return for his money. And as a wise investor will secure twice as great an income from the same money as a less discerning one will, so an advertiser who exercises care in selecting the mediums in which to invest his appropriation will make the same money bring him far more busi- ness than the advertiser will get who pays little attention where his aidvertis- ing investment goes. A NEW YOBEEB'S EZPEBIENCE. There still are a few members of the trade, especially in the extreme east, who do not realize how useful The Be- view is to others and how helpful it would be to them if they would use it. Like this: Will have to ask you to take onr ad out ot The ReTlew, as we are flooded with orders from all comers of the United States. The ReTiew finds them all. We have had orders for over 150,000 plants in three weeks. As we are not able to change the ad as fast as the orders come in, we are returning good money dally on some varieties. You will hear from us again as soon as we hare caught up. — Cherry Park Gardens, Frank Thies, Mgr., Fredonia, N. Y., January 24. 1020.

Howard Winfield Vose, who conducted a retail flower store in Woonsocket, E. I., and later at Attleboro, Mass., died Tuesday evening, January 27, at his home in the Bronson block, Attleboro, after a two days ' illness of double pneu- monia. Mr. Vose, who was about his duties on the Sunday previous, was stricken Sunday evening, and in less than twenty-four hours his life was in a precarious condition. Bom in Lincoln, E, I., thirty-five years ago, he was the son of the late Alonzo Vose, of Cumberland, E. I. After attending the public schools, he became associated with his father and eight years ago established a florists' busi- ness in the Sweeney block, Woonsocket, later removing to Attleboro, where he opened a store. About two years ago he became afl&liated with C. Sidney Smith in the undertaking business as Smith & Vose, in addition to his flower store. Mr. Vose was well known in fraternal circles. He was a member of the vari- ous Masonic organizations and was ready to take his thirty-second degree in February. He was a member of Hope Chapter of the Eastern Star; Attleboro Lodge No. 1014, Benevolent and Protec- tive Order of Elks; Orient Lodge of Odd Fellows; Hospitaler Commandery, Knights of Malta; Attleboro Lodge of Moose; Attleboro Chamber of Com- merce; Attleboro Eetail Merchants' Bureau and the "West Side Club. He was also secretary of the Highland Country Club and a director of the Attleboro Young Men's Christian As- sociation. Besides his wife, Philomen Vose, he is survived by one daughter, Miss Eo- berta Vose, of Attleboro; his mother, Mrs. Ida Vose, and a sister, of Cum- berland Hill, E. I. W. H. M. Mrs. Margaret Eihl Domer. Mrs. Margaret Eihl Domer, widow of the original head of F. Dorner & Sons Co., La Fayette, Ind., died at her home there January 25, at the age of 75. Mrs. Dorner was born in Alsace, coming to the United States in 1849. She was mar- ried March 2, 1861, to Fred Domer, with whom she was planning to celebrate her golden anniversary when he died sud- denly of pneumonia December 29, 1910. Seven of her thirteen children survive her: Theodore Dorner, president of F. Domer & Sons Co. and retiring presi- dent of the American Carnation Society; Fred E. Dorner, of the same firm and treasurer of the American Carnation Society; Herman B. Dorner, of the divi- sion of floriculture of the University of Illinois; William P. Dorner, of Indian- apolis; Miss Emily Domer and Mrs. F. E. Hudson, of La Fayette, and Mrs. Claude Eiddle, of Los Angeles, Cal. Edward W. Carbary. Edward W. Carbary, for the last twenty-five years in the nursery busi- ness at Elgin, 111., died of pneumonia Wednesday afternoon, January 21, at his home. He was born June 25, 1860, at Lake Geneva, Wis., and had been a resident of Elgin for the last forty-two years. He began selling nursery stock there thirty years ago and five years later started in business for himself. He was a member of Elgin lodge No. 96 of the E. A. M. and a member of the Century Club. He is survived by his wife, Mrs. Bar- bara Carbary; two sons, George D. Car- bary, of Elgin, and Clarence T. Car- bary, of Boston, Mass., and one daugh- ter. Miss Ella Carbary, of Elgin. Private funeral services were held at the home Friday afternoon, January 23. Frederick Simon. Frederick Simon, secretary of the Crown Hill Cemetery Association, which owns and operates the Crown Hill Green- houses, Denver, Colo., died of pneumonia January 18. He was buried Thursday, January 22, It was one of the largest funerals held in Denver in recent years. Several truck loads of flowers testified to the esteem in which he was held by all who knew him. Noteworthy among the many floral designs was a 6-foot armchair executed in Enchantress and white carnations, Columbia and Ophelia roses, freesias and maidenhair fern. Mr. Simon was a member of the Odd Fellows and the Highlands Christian church. E. S. Donald B. Fogg. Donald E. Fogg, for two years in busi- ness in Portland, Me., died January 19 at Eutland, Mass. He had served eight- een months at Camp Devens, Ayer, Mass., during the war. Before going into business in Portland, he studied interior decorating for two years in New York. He is survived by his father and mother, of Biddeford, Me., and one sister. Joseph Levy. Joseph Levy, 356 Fulton street, Brook- lyn, N. Y., died Friday, January 30. Mr. Levy was proprietor of the Brook- lyn Wholesale Flower Market, which he opened in 1914. Thomas Morris. Thomas Morris, superintendent of the estate of D. G. Eead, Irvington-on-the- Hudson, died suddenly Tuesday, January i27. He was buried January 29. Mr. Morris was 33 years old and leaves a widow and three children. BRIDGEPOBT, CONN. The Market. Potted plants, such as begonias, cyc- lamens, primroses, etc., are plentiful, but all varieties of cut flowers are scarce at present, though it is hoped that they will be more plfentiful by February 14. We had only one day of sunshine last week. The other days we had either rain, snow or cloudy weather, and cut flowers did not bloom quickly. The streets have also been in bad condition, either as slippery as glass or covered with slush. This has injured counter trade to some extent, as few people have been out unless it was necessary. However, telephone orders have kept the florist busy, as the demand for funeral designs has been heavy since Christ- mas. Carnations are scarce. Eoses are also short in supply. Paper Whites are quite plentiful and help much in funeral work. A few daffodils and tulips are in bloom, and freesias are in good supply at some of the greenhouses. Sweet peas are more plentiful than they were last week. A sman supply of callas and Easter lilies is available. Sweet peas and calen- dulas help to make a variety in the cut flower stock. Various Notes. James E. Beach has had so much fu- neral work that he has had difficulty in securing enough flowers to meet the de- mand. He is cutting a few Easter and calla lilies. A few daffodils and tulips are blooming. John Eeck & Son report that bulbous stock is progressing nicely at the green- houses and they are anticipating a splendid spring business. They are also preparing for a busy St. Valentine's day. This firm furnished the decora- tions for the Wakefield-Waldo wedding. Both the home and the church were elaborately decorated with smilax and yellow roses. Eobert Hawkins has been kept busy with funeral work. James Horan designed a pall of camel- lias, callas and Paper Whites last week. The Park Garden & Flower Shop is cutting an abundant supply of sweet peas. The firm made a casket cover of violets last week which was worthy of mention. I. L. B. CHIOAOO. The Market. Gradually it is dawning on that sec- tion of the trade identified with or de- pendent on the Chicago market that the great scarcity of flowers during January has not been due to lack of production, but to an unprecedented increase in the demand. The only situation compara- ble with that of the last three weeks was the one the trade encountered in October of 1918 and there was a large amount of idle glass; now it all is in operation. It has begun to be recognized that the quantity of flowers sold in the Chicago market in January was at least as great as in any other year. The appearance of small supply was due to the unusually large demand. With calls no greater than last year, the shortage would not have been so serious as it ordinarily is in January, when flowers usually are on the short side for a considerable part of the month. Practically every wholesaler in the Chicago market reports a material in- crease in his sales for January. A com- parison of his records shows he sold at least as many flowers as last year, probably more, so that the increase in sales was not wholly due to higher prices. Taking the market as a whole, the money value of sales for the month must be at least fifty per cent ahead of January in 1919. Numerous houses re- port increases up to seventy-five per cent and there are occasional ones which report increases running up to double last January's sales. The retailers, counting those out of town as well as the local buyers, must have done pro- portionately as well. At no time in the month were there as many flowers as were called for. Orders were scaled sharply and there has scarcely been a moment since 1920 came in that more flowers could not have been sold with- out breaking the price, or that still higher prices could not have been ob- tained for the stock available. Though prices have been high, they might have [Contlnned on pace 42.] i V'.,' 38 I'hc Florists' Review FlBBDABX 5. 1920 Big Supply for ST^ You can order of Amling with drawing on America's largest sup Valley ^miuniiini Amling's always is headquarters.

The final week of January seems to have set a new record for the Chicago market. Many wholesalers say their takings for the week exceeded the value of the sales of Christmas week, incredi- blb as that may seem. There was an increase in supply last week, amounting possibly to as much as fifty per cent compared to the quantity of flowers available the week before. But this material increase in stock did not suffice for the demand and prices were not ad- versely affected. The price of roses and carnations already had been carried as ip.r as most of the wholesalers think it lis wise to go at this time. Consequently there was little change on these staple items. But a most unusual thing hap- pened with the flowers of spring. Usual- ly the last week in January sees sharp reductions in the price of such items as sweet peas, jonquils and tulips. This year the price advanced as the supply increased. Practically the only items on which there was any decrease were freesias and valley. These two flowers are competitors and the first heavy cuts of freesia came at a time when the new valley was coming to market from sev- eral sources which have not been oper- ating during the war. Freesia and val- ley are almost the only items on which the market is adequately supplied. With better weather there has been a sharp increase in the supply of sweet peas, but the demand has been so strong that prices have advanced. The best sweet peas have sold for as much as $6 per hundred, a price without precedent here. Good jonquils have been readily sold at 12 cents and there are reports of sales at 15 cents, also a price without precedent. Cattleyas, which were fall- ing, have firmed up, although the supply is larger than heretofore. The market is looking forward to an extremely good St. Valentine's day. It is figured that the demand for funeral work will subside, but that the call for flowers for other purposes will increase as the supply increases and that ex- tremely active business may be looked for all through the spring. It is not expected that prices will hold at the present unusual level, but it is believed that good prices can readily be had for the balance of the season. Already large numbers of orders, especially for spring flowers, are coming in for shipment February 12 and 13, for St. Valentine's day. Cooperative Campaign Takes Form. At a meeting at the Randolph hotel Monday evening, February 2, retailers, growers and wholesalers passed on the by-laws framed by the committee ap- pointed three weeks before to form an organization to carry on a local coopera- tive advertising campaign.

At the meeting named for February 16, nine directors will be elected, each branch of the trade in the meantime nominating three men it de- sires as its representatives. Progress since the first meeting was more rapid than had been expected un- der the existing conditions. The rush of work allowed few retailers time to do much canvassing. Yet over 100 new names were reported. Some of the dis- trict captains reported that they had obtained signatures of 100 per cent of the florists called upon.

The plan proposed for Chicago fol- lows closely that in operation in Mil- waukee, save that the wholesalers will contribute one per cent of their com- missions and be paid for the extra ex- pense of bookkeeping from the general fund, with the provision that such ex- pense shall not be more than one-half of the wholesaler's contribution. The allowance for bookkeeping expenses was decided upon after some discussion, the original plan of one per cent plus book- keeping being considered too heavy a share for the wholesalers, although that was the decision of their committee re- ported by Paul Klingsporn and Eric Johnson to the meeting. The allied trades will be called to a conference by Fred Lautenschlager to determine the basis for their payments. After the reading and adoption of the by-laws by section.

The Alpha Floral Co. had an unusual funeral design in the window last week. It was a large pillow of bronze galax, on which rested a huge bouquet of Italian wheat, cypripediums and white sweet peas. Mr. Chronis habitually carries an extremely large stock and the recent shortage of flowers has made it difScult for him to maintain his display. O er t ^Chicago II L X^e-^Xe^s \w S\xpp\\«is 30 EAST RANDOLPH STREET It is understood John Mangel has first chance at the flower stand concession in the new Hotel Drake. He recently re- newed his arrangement with the Black- stone, under the same management, on terms that are said to have discouraged other bidders. Ziska & Sons, who handle no cut flow- ers, received their first post-war ship- ment of artificial flowers from Germany about January 15. It was most oppor- tune, they say, as the sale has been far faster than they had dared hope. A large importation of French chilFon is on the way. B. SchefSer, the Wheaton mum and sweet pea grower, last week bought 150 boxes of glass. He has not yet made plans for using it, but feels sure glass will be scarce and higher in price during the summer. P. C. Schupp, proprietor of the J. A. 48 The Florists' Review Fdbbdabt 6. 1920 Budlong Co., has noted that the demand for funeral flowers has come principally from a strip of country in which the flu is especially epidemic. He says that lines drawn eastward from St. Louis and Milwaukee would enclose the ter- ritory in which the demand for flowers has been strongest the last few weeks. R. E. Kurowski is all smiles. A 9%- pound boy, their second, arrived at the Kurowski home January 31. George Ball says that with calendula selling at 12 and 15 cents it has become a crop any grower could regard as more than incidental. C. A. AUes, for many years with Wie- tor Bros., has the sympathy of his friends in the death of his mother Jan- uary 31. She was 76 years old. The funeral was held February 4. No matter what line one is engaged in this spring, it seems that demand is taxing facilities. Fred Lautenschlager says Kroeschell Bros. Co. never has known so strong a demand for boilers as in January. The John C. Moninger Co. reports or- ders booked in January as being for considerably more than twice the num- ber of square feet of glass ever before placed under contract in that month. The announcement of the February meeting of the Florists' Club appeared in new form, decorated with the por- trait of President Waters. It made quite a hit and probably is responsible for increased attendance at the meet- ing. A special meeting of the stockholders of the Chicago Flower Growers' Asso- ciation was held January 27, at which nearly five-sixths of the shares were represented and voted unanimously in favor of the directors' recommendation that the capital stock be doubled. The new shares will be sold to present stock- holders at par, bringing in $30,000 of additional working capital, and each stockholder present signed for his quota. The subscription rights expire Feb- ruary 6. H. B. Kennicott celebrated his thirty- fourth birthday anniversary at Clear- water, Fla., February i. E. Wienhoeber and his daughter leave February 8 for a six weeks' vacation trip to California. They will visit most of the points of interest between San Francisco and San Diego. Frank Nielsen, of La Grange, January 31 sought the aid of the police and newspaper men to find his son, Charles, 16 years of ago, who had run away from home. Grafted Premier are to be planted by Poehlmann Bros. Co. Upwards of 75,000 Manetti stocks were obtained and are to be grafted as rapidly as the work can be handled. Buddleia aaiatica is a novelty in this market. The Joseph Foerster Co. has shown some fine spikes, but has found the retailers knew the quality so little it was hard to realize their true worth. Zech & Mann report a grower who bemoaned missing Christmas with a crop of mignonette. Last week the fine spikes brought from $2 to $2.50 per dozen! Theodore Vogel, who has been with W. J. Smyth for many years, is planning to join the innumerable caravan of flo- rists wending their way to the Pacific coast. There still are florists whose chief 4esire is to cut expense. But with the majority the wish is to push, to do busi- ness, to go while the going is good.

Freesia Purity from California-grown bulbs marks the only improvement in the supply at the close of January. There is quite a lot showing a range in quality, as can be imagined. There is long- stemmed, fancy freesia, the bunches making as fine a show as a bunch of choice lilac, or perhaps a better com- parison would be to say, looking like a bunch of Paper White narcissi of extra- ordinary refinement, and there is small, short-stemmed freesia, suggestive of snowdrops in early springtime. It all goes, helping to make the shortage less acute. Yet the expected relief has not come and the market is nearly as bare now as at any time during the month. Golden Spurs have not come in sufficient quantities to amount to anything. They bring the most unheard-of prices and sweet peas still show that dislike for extremely wintry weather that makes reliance on them at this season most unsafe. We are told that the tide is turning; that there will be a little more of this and a little more of the other in a few days and that all together they will have an effect, and when you ask your informant whether business will not likewise improve with something to of- fer during February, and whether the demand is likely to continue to outstrip the supply, he looks dubious and won- ders whether his troubles are over after all.

It was most in- teresting to meet the men and hear their ideas on this and that point. We went around the wholesale cut flower district in Chicago and were surprised to find how scarce flowers were. The shortest roses were bringing 20 cents. At the store of Bassett & Washburn, C. L. Washburn greeted us cordially. He said there was little to show us, but asked an assistant to bring out a vase of Beauties. On their appearance Mr. Washburn remarked that this was their last season. Paul R. Klingsporn, of the Chicago Flower Growers' Association, is even more enthusiastic about Premier than he was when he was in Philadel- phia a year ago. "The next day I went out to the range of Albert F. Amling Co., at Maywood, a place devoted entirely to roses. Colum- bia is a great rose here. They have 90,000 and are delighted with it.

Do you think it is because they are all grown in benches? They have a number of interesting labor-saving devices at this place. A long truck capable of carrying a number of flats, filled with plants, is equipped with wheels that are fitted to run on the 6- inch sideboards of the tables, the wheels being adjustable to table inequalities. The benches are supported by sleepers laid on concrete piers. The large boilers are fed with soft coal which seems more like hard coal than our soft coal. It is hard and contains little dirt. "I went to Sam Pearce's to see the lilies and bulbs. This place supplies the E. C. Amling Co. with many of its bulbous flowers. The heating arrange- ments are modest and apparently excel- lent. The bulbs are forced to a certain stage without light. Mr. Pearce ex- plained his small force by saying that he was generally there. The lilies at Pearce's being all for cutting, I went to Ernest Oechslin's to see them grown for selling in pots. This is considered one of the best pot plant places supply- ing the Chicago market. Two mag- nificent Packard trucks impressed me right at the start. The place was full of interest and gave cause for thought. "I went about with A. M. Henshaw, the New York wholesaler, a mighty nice fellow, and coming home I had the pleasure of bumping into Arthur Her- rington, of Madison, N. J. I hardly know yet whether I think the cultural methods in the west are ahead of our own.

A large force were hard at work in the Bellevue-Stratford store of J. J. Habermehl's Sons, making up baskets of primulas for dinner table decorations. Harry W. Jones, the manager, said that these primulas cut from pots and made up in various ways had saved many an order when the right kind of cut flow- ers could not be obtained. Bobert A. Craig says that the Easter lilies at Norwood are as fine as anything he has ever seen at this time, nine weeks ibefore Easter. Some of the lilies are tall enough to assure a good height and all are pictures of health. Mr. Craig is proud of two things, the assortment and the quality of his Easter stock. The Charles F.

Harry Bayersdorfer says that when he first started as an errand boy in the Jiorists' supply business bouquet papers were the standard and almost the only supplies sold to florists by his firm, who were pioneers in the business in this city. Then followed the pretty little moss baskets and immortelles. When he took hold of his uncle 's firm, now his own, florists' supplies were made the main business, instead of being merely a side line, and it was rapidly developed.

The Market. The anticipated break in cut flower prices has not yet materialized, nor are much lower prices probable while such abnormal climatic conditions continue. January 31 and February 1 gave us the lowest temperatures of the entire season. Such weather is conducive neither to flower production nor to flower selling. Arrivals continue com- paratively small and there is little sur- plus of anything. Influenza in a mild form is prevalent, but deaths are few and it is not believed the epidemic will prove serious. Roses are coming in a little more freely, but prices hold up well. A few warm days would see abundant supplies. Prices on hybrid teas vary from $14 to $40 per hundred. No good American Beauties are coming in; the few arriv- ing have short stems. Carnations have not shown any decline; in fact, prices have been a little stiffer than in the week before. Some fancies realize $18 to $20, but the general average sell at $10 to $15. Violets remain about the same. Pansies are more plentiful and of fine quality at $2 to $4 per hundred. Daffodils are a little more plentiful, but still realize high prices.

Campernelles, Eoman hyacinths and other bulbs are seen in small lots. Lilium formosum is coming from a number of growers, selling at $35 per hundred. Callas continue to sell well. Sweet peas are in good supply and the prices vary according to quality from $1.50 to $5. Wallflowers and myosotis move rather slowly. Antirrhinums sell at from $12 to $30 per hundred. Free- sias are as plentiful as anything on the market; the best realize $8 to $10. Stevia is nearing the end. Cattleya Triana" is in good supply and prices have slumped considerably. The demand for ferns and asparagus is comparatively light. The demand for pot plants is re- stricted by severe weather, but a good assortment of flowering plants is now offered. Among the cheaper kinds, cinerarias are selling better than ever before. Various Notes. Owing to the intensely cold weather .Tanuary 31, the large orchid display which A. C.

In connection with the big orchid show to be held in Boston March 24 to 28, an orchid conference is being ar- ranged, with lectures by prominent orchid specialists. It is hoped that an American orchid society will be organ- ized as one result of this conference. WoUrath & Sons, of Waltham, report an excellent sale of cinerarias this sea- son. They have 15,000 begonias potted off, with Melior in much the greatest number. The movement for daylight saving continues to gather momentum in Massachusetts, and there now seems lit- tle doubt that this state will put it in operation May 1. New York state al- ready has it and probably all New Eng- land will fall in line eventually. This winter is proving to be one of the old-fashioned type and coal piles are being steadily diminished. A heavy covering of snow helps in some measure to protect greenhouses. E. C. Bridgham, of the Newton Rose Conservatories, reports active business. They grow nearly all their own stock and plan next season to plant one addi- tional house each of roses and carna- tions, including novelties of each. Miss Margaret Crimmings, a graduate of Boston University, is now bookkeeper at Galvin's Back Bay store. Several firms are specializing this sea- son in rainbow freesias, which, however, do not seem to be particularly popular, containing, as they do, too many un- popular shades of color. C. T.

BUFFALO, N. Y. The Market. Last week was not a busy one, but stock was in such limited supply that it held at fair prices, which were, how- ever, somewhat lower than a week ago. For the first time in two months carna- tions found time to rest in vases up to a late hour Saturday afternoon. Of course there is usually nothing strange in the fact that a little stock should be unsold at the end of the week, but now the fact is worth noting, since it was the first time in many weeks. Jonquils were also more plentiful than the trade could use at the prevailing price of $12.50 per hundred. Short and medium- grade roses are still exceedingly scarce. F. P. A. BOOHESTEB, N. T. The Market. The continued cold weather, with zero temperatures nearly every night, does not help the flower market at all. For- tunately, there was considerably more sun last week than for several weeks previous and stock has been better. The market continued firm, with high prices prevailing, and flowers were scarcer last week than the week before. No florist got all that he ordered, for shipments were divided among all of them in the best way possible, in order to prevent any unnecessary dissatisfac- tion. Out flowers remained at prices similar to those at Ohristmas time, and even at these figures there was no diflS- culty in selling. The demand was good. Several "weddings and other social func- tions demanded good-sized decorations and funeral work was heavy. The flu epidemic is raging in this city, but as yet only a few deaths have occurred from it. It appears to be in a milder form this year — fortunately. Carnations have perhaps been the hardest to distribute, owing to the small- ness of the shipments arriving. The winter's supply does not begin to come up to that of previous years. Fortu- nately, roses are in medium supply, but it is difficult to make the round of regu- lar customers and give them what they most need. Violets maintain a good price and move well. Cattleyas are excep- tionally beautiful, with a fair demand. Cypripediums are also good and sell J. H.

Aids Retailers' Business. In the retail flower store salesmanship 3 important, whether the store is located >n Fifth avenue, New York, or on Main itreet of a small town. The man who idds to his knowledge of business and if flowers something of the really impor- ant points in selling will have an extra isset to promote his progress. Those of '^ears'^ experience in the trade have [radually acquired, consciously or un- onsciously, much that is included in he so-called art or science, as one hooses to name it, of salesmanship. As the trade grows so rapidly now ind young and little experienced per- ons are found in many flower stores, ome suggestions which will increase heir worth to their employers and their iwn ability, through knowledge of es- ential factors in salesmanship, assume orresponding importance. By consid- ration and careful thought in regard 0 the suggestions given, much of the elling friction that prevents easy trans- .ctions may be removed. Here are pre- ented some of the main points in easy ind successful selling in the retail store. Developing Fersom^ity. A salesman's first requisite should be act. He needs keen perception to en- ble him to class a customer, to attribute he motive in making a purchase, to landle a difficult case where the cus- omer is dissatisfied and aggrieved, and 0 suit the customer so that he or she ?ill return to the store and to him, time ,nd time again. His second requisite should be nerve, or it needs nerve to approach a cus- omcr with a proposition and to take a ebuff. It needs nerve to try again and gain to bring his goods to the atten- ion of the customer. His third requisite should be 'hat is necessary to succeed in closing sale, for patience is required to linch it. It is essential to possess a soft, pleas- ig voice with the right degree of char- cter and force vibrating through it. [eat and proper dress is essential to a ood salesman, as are pleasing manners nd habits. Correct conversation is also ecessary, as grammatical mistakes fiFend the ear. The salesman must possess self-re- ance, self-respect and dignity, together dth poise, in order to make a success, b develop poise, it is best to cultivate ptimism, mastery of oneself, and the esire to please others. Also if the ilesman has ambition and is willing to ork towards its realization, he will jquire enthusiasm for the work he is oing. This can be accomplished by [ealizing his goods and using his imag- lation. To look for the good in others and not iticise, and not to fear making mis- gl-it. takes, but to learn from them, should be the motto of every salesman. Inspiring Confidence. To inspire confidence, you must, in the first place, be prepared to answer questions by learning all there is to know about the goods beforehand. Know their origin, the quality of the goods you are selling and its relation to other qualities. Study the firm 's adver- tising and learn just what specials have been offered. Study the firm's window display each morning and inquire about each article if you are not already fa- miliar with it. Find out just what sort of service in the way of delivery you are able to promise. If you can learn anything about the financial standing of Wreath of Orchids. a customer before giving credit, do so and that will benefit the proprietor and yourself. By anticipating objections to your goods, you will be ready with an answer and not be flustered. Offset any little disadvantages or defects in the best possible way. If you have the opportunity to sell an article which you know will prove unsatisfactory, do not sell it to that customer; make a friend instead of a sale. By telling the truth at all times you will inspire confidence, for most customers can tell by your manner, any- way, whether you are lying. If you make a promise, see that it is kept, at all costs. Treat your customer neither with dis- respect nor as a king, but as an equal. If there is a doubt, give your customer the benefit of the doubt. Look at your customer while talking; there is nothing more annoying than to be talked to when the salesman is turned away. Above all, to inspire confidence, you must have confidence in yourself, your goods, your store and your customer. Securing Attention. When a customer first approaches you, smile and give a pleasant greeting. Men- tion something special which you have in stock and which you would like to show her, or if she has already inter- ested herself in something on display, show the flowers or whatever is desired. If you are busy with another customer, acknowledge her presence and say, "Just a minute, please," which will make her feel more like waiting for you to finish. Don't do all the talking; let the cus- tomer talk. If she enumerates her trou- bles, show the utmost sympathy and in- tense interest, but do not, under any conditions, tell her of your troubles. It is always tiresome to listen to those of anyone but yourself. If the customer is in haste, be quick. Let every action of yours show haste. Nothing is so annoying to a customer in a hurry as to be waited on by a sales- man who is slow. When you give your sales arguments, if the customer shows lack of attention and interest, turn to some other sub- ject, even if it is only the weather. Don't, by any means, hurry a customer, or give the impression that you are tired of her and wish to be rid of her. If the customer's first question is price, point out the qualities of the flowers, or whatever she asks for^ which merit the figure you name. Do not try to sell a customer flowers at a price more than he or she wishes to pay. You may make the sale, but the customer, feeling that flower prices are too high, may not come back. Things Not to Do. 1. Don't ask the customer, "What else?" Suggest something else if you really believe the customer would be in- terested in it, or wishes to purchase something more. 2. Don't wrangle or talk personally with fellow workers if there is a cus- tomer present. 3. Don 't base your sales argument on price — it is quality that counts. 4. Don't, under any condition, cut a price. Be sure you have given a fair price to start with and do not reduce it by any means. 5. Don't argue with a customer. If you win the argument, you lose your customer. If you lose the argument, you lose your customer, too. 6. Don't disobey orders; follow them. After carrying them out, then offer sug- gestions. 7. Don't throw responsibility oa others; assume some yourself.

Don't criticise another customer or a competitor before a customer. 9. Don't get angry if a customer comes in and shouts at you because you have made some mistake or his order proved unsatisfactory for some other reason. Keep cool. Keep your own voice low and pleasant, ask fully about the complaint and listen to it carefully. If there is any question, give the cus- tomer the benefit of the doubt. Above all, send the customer away satisfied and with the feeling that she has been treated squarely. WREATH OF ORCHIDS. "Goodness knows," said Z. D. Black- istone, referring to the wreath illustrat- od on page 68, "what we would have made it of if we hadn't got a big crop of orchids!" It was well, of course, that the customer was able to stand the cost of the orchids. But Mr. Black- istone 's patrons in Washington are chiefly of that class. "During the last week," he said, "we have used 1,000 orchids." SECY YOUNG'S CORNER OFFICE: 1170 Broadway, New York NATIONAL PUBIJCITY CAMPAIGN. Planning Ahead. The publicity committee held a 2 day iiiccting January 21 and 22 in Chicago and formulated working plans for the 1920 campaign. There is to be no let-up in the activities of the campaign and the magazine advertising is to be as jK'rsistent as ever. The committee was greatly pleased at the reports it had received as to the re- sults of the campaign. Many florists making these reports had taken particu- lar pains to record conversations with uew and old customers, from which it was quite evident that the campaign was producing good business. Some of these reports referred to a noticeably great increase in the demand for flow- ers for anniversary gifts. The request that our slogan appear on the cards sent with such gifts was general and showed •I disposition on the part of the public til adapt the slogan to its own use.

Just a word of appreciation in behalf of the band of sincere workers who rep- resented the various bodies connected with the S. A. F., if anyone left our 2-day meeting at the Hollenden hotel, Cleveland, without words of praise for the volume of good work which will ulti- mately result from the conference. It was, as one of the directors said, an inspirational meeting and one never to be forgotten.

Surely they are an inspiration to the younger generation to follow in their footsteps. No, the occasion will never be forgotten, at least by those who were fortunate enough to be at our meeting. Then, the desire on the part of all the other directors to pledge their best efforts for the good of the cause tended to make this meeting the most success- ful that it has been my privilege to at- tend. Just imagine, if you can, this en- tire body of officers and affiliated di- rectors giving five solid hours to the publicity work, in which we are all so vitally interested, and not a dull mo- ment in all this discussion, every one eager to do and give the best that is in him for the cause. Surely, our slogan, "Say It with Flowers," will never falter with this warm support behind it.

From the moment President Miller called the meeting to order until the dose of the sessions all present were in- terested in showing why they came and joined in the deliberations, and the fruits of the meeting will be known from coast to coast soon. The sound of its effect will be on the tongue of every florist in the land, first, for the good the plan will merit, and secondly, for the unselfishness of purpose for which it stands, where everyone will share its benefits. Our thanks are due to the maker and organizer of the plan. At any rate, it is up to us all to get behind it when it is ready and show how we, too, can look beyond our own selfish needs and make it a bigger and better florists' industry than we have ever been able to have before. Get behind the publicity move- ment and do your share and be a bigger and better florist for so doing, because the purpose justifies the action.

The Retail Florists' Association at its last meeting, .January 19, failed to elect its new officers, owing to the small at- tendance. Those who regularly attend are at a loss to know why the retailers take so little interest in attending these meetings, and there is talk of disband- ing unless more interest is shown when the call is made for this month's meet- ing. According to the terms of the will of the late Fred C. Weber^ his son, Fred C. Weber, Jr., was appointed executor of the estate without bond. He appointed Theodore Miller, Frank J. Fillmore and L. .lules Bourdet to make an inventory of the estate left in the will. A banquet was tendered to the retir- ing park commissioner, Nelson Cunliff, and his successor, Frederick W. Pape, by the Municipal Athletic Association at the Missouri Athletic Club January 26. All the new and old officials at- tended and assured Mr. Pape of their full support. Dwight F.

Badaraceo and Henry Duringberg. The majority of these expect to return to work this week. Since the receipt of last week's issue of The Review, describing the formation of the national growers' association at Chicago, a number of growers have ex- pressed great satisfaction at the out- come and will await J. F. Ammann's ar- rival at the next meeting of the Flo- rists' C'lub to hknd him their applica- tions for membership in the associa- tion. The florists' publicity committee held a meeting January 27 at headquarters and transacted a lot of important busi- ness; the committee in charge of the ad- vertising was voted a good sum of money for advertising St. Valentine's day. The committee distributed 50,000 stam])s and posters to the retailers. This distribution is to be followed up by the display of the same cut in all the daily newspapers throughout one week. Fred J.

He has just erected a new house, 25x100 feet, and contemplates more in the near future. D. T. Connor, of the Lord & Burnham Co., was a visitor in the city last week. Mr. Connor is looking forward to a busy summer in the construction line this season. There must be greater produc- tion of flowers and this cannot be done without more glass. Bobt. L. Graham, Jr., chairman of the entertainment committee of the Flo- rists' Club of Baltimore, said recently that at the next meeting of the club, Monday, February 9, they are going to have one of the best features of the win- ter. The committee has been success- ful in getting Dr. D. H. Griffith, of the Department of Agriculture, to come over and give an illustrated lecture on "Growing Lily Bulbs in the United States." Besides the pictures, he is going to have some of the plants grown in this country to illustrate his talk. As fine a lot of primulas as I have ever seen came from the range of P. B. Welsh. Mr. Welsh said last week that all stock would be scarce for Easter, but he would have some good Harrisii lilies and a fair amount of bulbous stock. Mr. Welsh, who usually has as fine sweet peas as come to the market, said that he should at this time have large quantities of them, but owing to the dark weather the buds of the entire crop had dropped off. The publicity committee is working hard; it is holding meetings every week and hopes to have a scheme devised by the next meeting of the Florists' Club by which everyone in the trade will con- tribute systematically.

There are many cases of flu in the city, but fortunately it has not reached the epidemic stage and it does not seem to h^ve the fatal tendencies that it had a year ago; only two deaths have been reported to the health department from it so far this year. Tate. EAKSAS CITY, MO. The Market. There is such an epidemic of influenza that the florists are worse off than ever with a short supply of stock. The weath- er has been ideal for several days, but it has not been bright long enough for flowers to recover since Christmas. Each day finds orders filled somehow or other, but it requires such stretching and plan- ning that it gets on one's nerves after a week or two. Carnations and sweet peas are coming in better, but the de- mand is heavier in proportion. Plants are being sold almost entirely for sick rooms and hospitals and the flowers are being saved for funerals and other pur- poses. Roses are from $10 to $30; car- nations, $10 and $12; sweet peas, $2, $3 and $4; narcissi, $8, and freesias, $8 and $10 per hundred. Sunday Closing. The question of Sunday closing has been working in the minds of florists for many years, but for a long time it seemed like rank heresy to suggest such a thing to the public. So many decided moves and reforms which heretofore seemed impractical are being made now in business activities that it is merely a matter of educating the public to buy their flowers a day earlier.

Rock Flower Co. had ])roniinently displayed in its show window a printed card say- ing, "Closed Sundays," and the store closed February 1 for the first time. No telephone orders, except long-distance and orders for Sunday shipping, will be taken. Samuel Murray intends to observe the same rule and the other downtown stores will gladly follow suit. Two or three clerks can handle the busi- ness that comes in with the stores closed and by taking week about it means a 7-day week once in four or five weeks instead of every week. The public will like it as soon as they get used to it and will wonder why they never thought of it before. Vaxious Notes. The W. L.

Friday morning he started in again, having procured some more sweet peas from his greenhouses and other stock from various sources. He had so much funeral work all week that he dreaded to see a customer come into the store. In the midst of his rush, his chauffeur was taken with the flu. Samuel Murray had a beautiful casket spray of long-stemmed roses for the funeral of Mrs. J. K. Burnham. He is cutting orchids and narcissi and using both steadily. T. J.

Thomas, of the Rosery, is refus- ing to make any designs while flowers are so scarce, because it takes too many flowers. He uses flowers in sprays or combined with magnolia leaves for de- signs, but not alone. Mr. and Mrs. Tucker Smith, of Pleas- ant Hill, spent last week in Kansas City. The truck of the Pinehurst Floral Co. is making two trips a day between Pleasant Hill and Kansas City, carry- ing plants from the greenhouse. The company is cutting comparatively few roses or carnations, but is cutting some sweet peas, narcissi, freesias, tulips and jonquils. The range is s?nding up heavy supplies of cinerarias, primroses and cyclamens, which all find a ready sale. The Muehlebach Flower Shop dis- played some fine cut flowers last week, Thursday it had fifty orchids in the window and Friday an arrangement of fifty cattleyas and twelve big sprays of yellow orchids. Mr. Neff gives par- ticular attention to window arrange- ment and finds that it pays well to do BO, particularly since he is located be- tween the Orpheum theater and the Muehlebach hotel. J. G. Eggleston says that he has about four times as many orders as he can take care of. He is cutting about 500 sweet peas a day, with good colors and large blooms. Mrs. J. Richards and Miss Dolly Mil- ler are making a success of their shop. CLEVELAND. OHIO Wm. H. Temblett FLOWERS 10313 Euclid Avenue B«ll Main 2809 Guy.

They began business last September and have had better business each month. Mrs. Laundie, who formerly had a greenhouse in Kansas City, Kan., and has had thirty years' experience in her line, is now with the Central Ave- nue Florists. William Foith has sold about 6,000 carnation cuttings of the 20,000 which he put in. He will sell a few more thou- sands, but will keep the bulk of the lot for field planting later. He is also wholesaling geranium cuttings and foliage plants. He is now cutting from 500 to 800 carnations daily, some of them before they are quite open, as the demand is so great, but his heaviest crop will be ready for St. Valentine's day. J. E. K. TORONTO, ONT. Member Fiosiats' Tdenraph P:livery Aaaocwtioii. The Market. Stock has been sold out each day. There is much design work, as well as decorations for social functions. Grow- ers state that as soon as warmer and brighter weather comes there will be a larger supply of roses and carnations. Some of the retailers have been worried over the amount of stock to fill orders and are using cycas leaves, etc., for funeral designs, with a few flowers. Various Notes. The annual dance of the Toronto Re- tail Florists' Club, which will be held in the Metropolitan Club rooms Febru- ary 9, will be the biggest the club has yet held. The president is in hopes that a number of friends of the Toronto flo- rists from across the line will attend. The dance of the Hamilton Associa- tion will be held the same evening in the I. O, O. F. hall, Hamilton. Simmons & Son are renovating their store, making it completely fireproof. New stocks of supplies have been re- ceived and business is being transacted on a large scale. The redecorating will be done inside and outside as soon as the warm weather comes. When com- pleted this will be one of the finest flower stores in America. Plans for the annual convention of the C, H. A. at Hamilton, August 10 to 13, are under way. The headquarters will be at the Royal Connaught hotel. The fine large dining room, capable of seating 400 people, will be used for the meeting. The trade exhibits will be in DETROIT Orders given best of care by these five F. T. D. Members J.

The People's Florists have been busy at both stores. They have had many funeral designs and decorations, but the shortage of stock makes it necessary to do a little juggling to make the flowers fill all the orders. J. J. H. PITTSBUBGH. The Market. The last two days of January brought more sunshine than the previous two months, and another week of similar conditions will bring in a fine crop of stock for St. Valentine's day. "While stock has been a little more plentiful recently, the wholesale mar- kets have so far not been able to catch up in their orders. Silver pussy willow is the only thing arriving in large quan- tities, the bunches of twenty-five each ranging in price from 50 cents to $2. Prices continue just about as they were during the holidays. Stock in general is of exceptionally fine quality. Various Notes.

Monday, January 26, was the eight- ieth birthday of Mrs. James McLeish, and in recognition of the occasion a family party was held. John C. Hess was confined to his house, 12 Caswell avenue, by an attack of the grip last week. Business is unusually good, especially in funeral work. William Edwards, superintendent of the T. Suffern Tailer estate on Ocean J)rive, is laying out a new golf course that promises to surpass anything in this section. W. H. M. PROVIDENCE, R. I. The Market. Intermittent snow storms, with exces- sively cold weather, has caused a mate- rial depletion in the supply of cut flow- ers in this market. At the same time there has been a material increase in the demand, to which several causes have contributed. A large increase in the number of funerals, which is rapidly approaching the record established dur- ing the influenza period of 1918, is re- sulting in a heavy call for flowers. There is also an unusually heavy social calen- dar, which is adding to the burdens of the situation. As a consequence, prices are holding firm and high, the most noticeable* shortage being in roses and carnations. Horticultural Society. The annual meeting of the Rhode Is- land Horticultural Society was held Wednesday evening, January 28, at the rooms of the Providence public library. John E.

J. The Market. The earliest of the late winter bulb stock is arriving on the market in small quantities and at high prices. Growers are putting in their final work in pre- paring for the opening of this part of the spring trade. Indications are that bulbous stock will not be overplentiful this year, and that consequently prices for all sorts of this stock will be higher than usual throughout the season. This is partly due to the fact that the prices of all kinds of materials entering into their production are higher than they were a year ago and partly due to the scarcity of labor and the high price of such as can be obtained. Many growers are getting along with less help than normally because of these conditions, OUR MOTTO IS " SATISFACTION " With this aim, backed by ten years* experience in the manufacture of Paper Boxes, particularly for Florists, we maintain that we can give our customers the best, a l>ox of Quality at a price that is right. We can make prompt shipments from our stock of all practical sizes, in five grades, Oxford Qray, Mist Qreen, Mist Tan, White Patent coated, and **Pavorite" Manila grade.

The Market. Another week of shortage along cer- tain lines can be noted, especially in roses, which are away below the demand. The field stock that occasionally reaches the market is conspicuously absent and, as the greenhouse growers are in short crop, there is nothing to take its place. Indoor and field-grown carnations are both good, but the recent fogs have spoiled many of the latter for shipping purposes. They look all right when shipped, but promptly go to sleep when opened up at^ the destination. Callas are coming in but slowly, owing to the cold nights, and are exceptionally useful, on account of the scarcity of anything that looks like a lily. There is nothing outside of shrub blooms that can be used for large decorations. Or- chids and sweet peas are both a little more plentiful, but clean up daily. Small flowers and bulbous stock are scarce. Greens of all kind are higl^er than usual in price. There is plenty of plumosus coming from -growers of second-rate stock; this cannot be shipped and or- ders from east and middle west points take all the best stock. Betailers all report a good week, the number of tourists in the hotels and rooming houses helping the box trade, while funeral work has been above the average. Wholesalers report much bet- ter business, principally in long-distance shipments. Various Notes. J. Dieterich is on a business trip to San Francisco. He is ejcpecting a large consignment of aspidistras from Japan, having secured a permit to import them washed clean of soil and packed in sterilized moss. This will form the nu- cleus of a big business in this stock at his Wintersbury nursery. It is under- stood that no stock can be sold from this for three years, but in the case of aspidistras this will prove no hardship, as it will take that long to produce salable plants. He is also figuring on growing Erica melanthera in quantity. Boy F. Wilcox had the misfortune to collide with a street car January 22, but fortunately no injury was done except to his car, which was rather badly stove in. Big shipments of heather are going out from his Montebello place to eastern points. The sympathy of his friends goes out to James Taylor, superintendent at Laughlin park, in the death of his mother, Mrs. Alice Taylor, who died at Gilmerton, Edinburgh, N. B., shortly after Christmas. Mrs. Taylor carried on a flower business in the Scotch town, which is being continued by her chil- dren. C. H. Woolsey has been confined to his home, in Glendale, for several weeks, but is improving rapidly and hopes to be around again shortly. He will reen- gage in the flower business in Glendale, having been out of it for some time. Max Tefillossy, recently with 8. Mu- rata & Co., has gone to San Diego to open up a retail flower business. Paul Staiger, since leaving Boy F. Wilcox & Co., has been selling nursery stock on commission for several nursery- men and reports a brisk business. Albert Amling, of Maywood, 111., and his wife, son and son's wife, are visit- jug here. Mr. Amling is considering buying land out here, it is said, for growing purposes, but nothing definite has been decided on. Mr. and Mrs. Smith, of the Smith Floral Co., Tacoma, Wash., are visiting the city. Mrs. B. E. Miller, wife of E. E.

The fruit has reached a size of three pounds; but the average is a one-pound fruit, unusually smooth. The flesh is more solid than of any other tomato known, mak- ing this variety so valuable for dehydrating purposes. This tomato is of a deep red color and very attractive to the eye. The Diener Tomato is specially useful in many localities for the fact that, after being properly started, it is practically drought resisting. The Diener Tomato is an excellent shipping variety, ripe fruit having been successfully shipped from here to New York. Price of Diener Tomato Seed, $.50 per package; $1.50 per Acre Package.

The demand for flowers is greater than the supply at present and florists are having a hard time filling the or- ders. In a week or two this condition will be improved, on the appearance of the early bulbous flowers. There is a fair supply of potted plants, which help out considerably for some occasions. The main showing in flowers just now is of violets, narcissi, freesias, sweet peas, roses and carnations. Various Notes. Clarke Bros, are showing a window of potted daffodils.

Funeral work has been exceptionally heavy and cape flowers and magnolia and galax leaves are much in evidence in the make-up of designs. The shipment of roses from the south is considerably smaller than that of a week ago, owing to the fact that the south is also experiencing a shortage of stock.

The scarcity of roses continues in the local market, with prices considerably in advance of those of the holiday period. Retail establishments complain that they can't get enough roses to meet the demands of their customers, while shippers state that orders are heavier than the supply. In a few weeks, however, several of the rose growers in this vicinity expect to be- gin cutting the second crop and thereby relieve the shortage to some extent. Spring flowers are growing more .plentiful. Outdoor daffodils are im- proving in quality and are arriving with longer stems and larger blooms. Anem- ones and ranunculi made their first appearance last week, while a few al- mond blooms were offered at one or two of the wholesale establishments. Violets are in splendid condition now and are plentiful enough to meet both the local and out-of-town demand. Carnation prices took a slight jump last week, the call for them being quite heavy on account of the amount of fu- neral work at present. White freesias are in excellent shape and are also in demand for funeral work as well as table decorations. Betail stores in San Francisco report an unusual amount of funeral work, and are cleaning up well each day on cut flower stock. Various Notes.

The outstanding feature of the appara- tus is the manner in which the powder is distributed over the plant or tree. The operator can stand from eight to ten feet from the plants to be dusted, thus preventing the inhalation of any of the fumes of the insecticide. The powder is thrown in a cloud-like fashion over the foliage, giving all parts of the plant an even dusting. Al. J. Nevraumont, manager of the California Seed Co., states that the company has been overcrowded with work the last month and finds it diffi- cult to supply the demand for season- able stock.

Stock was still scarce last week, in ^oth cut flowers and pot plants. All growers reported lots of buds, but the dull weather was responsible for the Shortage. Local roses were at a pre- mium and California roses were high in price. Some fine freesias were on the market and cleaned up readily. ■ The demand last week was especially heavy. Graduation exercises and the annual automobile show were the chief causes. Funeral work also helped to create a demand. The call from the trade in the neighboring towns for extra stock in most cases had to be cut in half. Various Notes. F. K. McCormick, of Post Falls, Idaho, is shipping some fine calla lilies and stevias and expects to be cutting roses soon. A. J.

Reviewing the seed season just past and the outlook for that ahead, a lead- ing British trade publication states: "Home production of seeds made a certain amount of progress, and during last summer fairly large areas of what may be termed staple vegetables were met with in places where seed growing was quite a new venture. "The wet spring, followed by a dry, but cold and sunless period, made gfTOwth somewhat backward, but subse- quent warmth quickened the pace and at one period crops in most districts wore a pleasing and promising aspect. Drought and heat, however, were later experienced, and on the whole yields were light and some seeds finished off rather too rapidly. Pea and bean crops were considerably below the average in weight, but they harvested particularly well and hand-picking is a much lighter task than was the case last season. "The dry autumn was favorable to the onion seed harvest, and some really good batches have been met with. The onion is undoubtedly one of the most important of the seed crops grown in England, and were it not for the uncer- tainty of our climate in autumn we might well produce the greater part of our required supplies, for without doubt English-grown onion seed maintains quality and stamina better than most foreign produce. "Some fairly good batches of beet seed and of the brassica tribe were se- cured, while carrot and parsnip also pro- duced respectable yields, but on the Our Office* and Warehouses at Lisse, HoUand 30!

MOTT-LY OLEANINas. Daniel Carmichael, of J. M. McCul- lough's Sons Co., Cincinnati, O., observed that since the formation of the Holland Bulb Growers' Association, methods were being pursued that are quite arbi- trary. He believes the seed trade and, in fact, all who handle Holland-grown stock will be compelled to counter-or- ganize. Demand locally is opening up well in response to the catalogue. Stocks are fairly plentiful. Manthey's Seed Store, Cincinnati, is getting more crowded each year. "If this season beats last in volume, we must expand," observed Mr. Manthey, who, by the way, is fighting the flu. The J. W. Wilder Seed Co., of Cin- cinnati, has installed on the second floor of the store an incubator capable of hatching 6,000 chicks and mentions the fact that annual sales run as high as 30,000. This gives an impetus to the sale of chick food and a profitable form of publicity. Clem Kimmel & Son, of Dayton, O., predict a greater scarcity of flower seed, owing to the prevailing high price and the fact that less is being sown each year. The outlook, as seen by the seeds- men, is becoming serious. W. M. STOCKS OF CLOVES SEEDS. From a table compiled by the bureau of markets of the Department of Agri- culture from schedules mailed to ap- proximately 3,500 shippers of red, alsike and sweet clover, alfalfa and timothy seed, a good comparison is obtained of stocks in shippers' hands December 13, 1919, and December 14, 1918, and of shipments and prices for the 1918 and 1919 crops. The stocks of each of these seeds in the hands of shippers were somewhat larger December 13, 1919, than they were a year ago. The differences, how- ever, were rather small. The estimated shipments of 1919 crop seed were found to be larger in the case of alsike and sweet clover and timothy, and to be smaller in the case of red clover and al- falfa. The difference in alfalfa ship- ments was most marked, the shipments of 1919 crop seed being only about seventy-five per cent of those for the 1918 crop, and in a few of the largest producing sections the shipments were less than twenty per cent of the 1918 shipments. Bed clover shipments of the 1919 crop were indicated to be ten per cent less than those of the 1918 crop, whereas those for the 1919 crop of tim- othy were shown to be eighteen per cent more than 1918 crop shipments. Growers received about $10.75 more per hundred pounds for red clover, $15.25 more for alsike clover, $6.25 more for sweet clover, $13.50 more for alfalfa and $1.90 more for timothy of the 1919 crop than for seed of the 1918 crop.

Dow, Bar Harbor, Maine. The fruit tree situation brought up a thorough discussion. No stocks were coming from France as in former years. C. Vander Voet, of the Arnold Arbore- tum, suggested Pyrus Koreanum as a good stock to use; seedlings 6 months old were large enough to graft. Paul V. Fortmiller said Manetti stock was scarce. His firm ordered 200,000 abroad and^ secured 87,000 at a much advanced price. A general discussion over the labor situation took place. H. P. Kelsey and others thought a profit-sharing plan and giving employees an interest in the business should come. Winthrop Thur- low said his firm employed only English- speaking workmen and furnished rubber boots and wateproof suits for use in bad weather. In this way time lost was greatly reduced. Quarantine 37 again came in for much discussion and it was voted to appoint a committee to work with the American Association of Nurserymen and other or- ganizations in demanding a letting down of the bars. A leeture on the corn borer by an expert brought out facts to prove that the dangerous nature of this pest had been tremendously exaggerated. E. I. Farrington closed the second day 'a proceedings with an illustrated lecture on ' * What 's New in the Garden. ' ' Bos- ton will again be the meeting place in 1921. Visitors.

TOTTY Madison, New Jersey I ' 130 The Florists^ Review Fbbrdabt 6. 1920 Greenhouse Heating COAL PBODUOTION PICKS UP. Bituminous coal production during the week ended January 17 was 11,155,- 000 tons, the greatest January week pro- duction in three years, the Geological Survey announced in its weekly report. Up to January 17 the bituminous mines of the country have produced 4,000,000 tons more coal than they did last year, despite some still apparent effects of the nation-wide strike evidenced in the form of car shortages. WITH HOT WATER OS STEAM. We are building a house 36x100 feet. It has 7-foot gutters, with three feet of glass in each side wall, and is a separate house with concrete walls. We have some 2%-inch and 2-inch pipe that we want to use in heating this house and we thought of running one 2% -inch flow down the center of the house and using 2-inch returns under the benches, how many 2-inch returns will be re- quired to heat the house to 60 degrees with an outside temperature of 10 de- grees below zerot R. M. H. — Ind. If hot water is to be used as the heat- ing medium, it would not be possible to secure good results with one 2%-inch flow pipe. About 1,500 square feet of radiation will be required for maintain- ing a temperature of 60 degrees in the house described. While it would be pos- sible to get along with four 2^4 -inch flow pipes, or even with three, I should advise that five 2^-inch flows be used. If the amount of 2 ^^ -inch pipe on hand is not sufficient for five flows, some of the 2-inch pipe may be substituted. Two 2^-inch and four 2-inch flows would give good results. The number of benches is not stated, but I judge that there are about five, with six walks. I suggest running one flow pipe upon each wall plate, another two or three feet below the ridge and the oth rs on the purlin posts. Eighteen 2-inch returns will be re- quired. If five flows are used I should use four returns upon each side wall, or under each side bench if they are built against the walls, and should distribute the other returns under the other benches. In case steam heat is to be used, although I should prefer to use 1%- inch pipes for the returns, it will answer to put in one 2%-inch overhead flow pipe and ten or eleven 2-inch returns, placing two or three under each bench. PIPING WITH SOLID BEDS. On the basis of the sketch and data which we enclose concerning our range, what arrangement of piping would you suggest? We shall use solid beds; con- sequently most of the returns will have to be run on the wall, although some can be run on purlin posts if the heat would be better distributed in that way. Would li^-inch pipe make satisfactory returns in this caset We have about 800 feet of this on hand and should like to use it if possible. Would you advise the installation of a mercury generatort At what level, in relation to the bottom of the returns, can boilers be set, when a mercury generator is used!

Yet all the fuss and worry attendant upon the old-fashioned method of repairing is now entirely unnecescary. "X"— the wonderful Boiler Liquid— will do $200.00 worth of repair work for $10.00; and do it In about half an hour. "X" Is a Scientific Process of Repairing Without Dismantling or Welding "X" is an absolute liquid. It is simply poured into the boiler and instantly combines itself with the water. In sizzling out through the leak or crack the "X" is changed by the atmospheric oxygen into a metal-like solid, making a permanent repair. This repair is gradu- ally hardened by the heat in the boiler, so that it stands a pressure of over one-quarter of a ton. The surplus "X" that remains in the water automatically stops all new leaks due to expansion or other causes. In this way "X" Liquid makes the boiler (and in a hot water system, the entire sys- tem) absolutely LEAKPROOF. Makes Boilers Rustproof and Scaleproof Saves Coal The chemical composition of "X" Liquid is such that it absorbs all free oxygen in the water. This prevents the metal from Rusting. "X" also prevents the lime and other scale-forming elements in the water from depositing layers of Scale on the walls. "X" keeps the boiler Rustproof and Scaleproof. "X" does not evaporate or lose its strength with age. When new water is added it combines itself with this water and performs its functions again and again. "X" contains no cement, powder or other injurious ingredients. It cannot clog the air valves; in fact it makes frequent repacking of valves unnecessary, A Strong • Guarantee! You take no chance in using "X" Liquid. It is uncondition- ally guaranteed to make good. If it fails you get a new can — or your money back. But your greatest guarantee of the value of "X" is the fact that it is used, sold and recom- mended by 99 per cent of the manufacturers of boilers and radiators. It is used by the U. S. Government. If your boiler cracks or leaks this winter you don't have to worry about your greenery— if you keep a can of "X" Liquid handy. Just get a can of "X" and do the repair job yourself. Get "X" Liquid from your Mteamfitter, or we will thip, chctrgee prepaid, on receipt of price. 1 Quart, $ 6.00 in the U. S. A. 2 Quarts, lO.OO in tlie U. S. A.

A temperature of 50 degrees is desired when it is 10 de- grees below zero outside. While 2M;-inch pipes would be pref- erable for the flows and 2-inch for the returns, it will answer if you install the 3-inch pipe now on hand for a part of the flow pipes and the iVa-inch pipe as returns, especially if it is necessary to put on a mercury generator, as would be advisable unless the boiler can be dropped so that the grate will be at least two feet below the lowest part of the returns. For the new houses, run a 3-inch flow on each of the side wall plates. For the returns use in each house six 2-inch pipes in a coil on the outer wall and four IV^-inch and one 2-inch on the inner walls. Although it is not possible to use pipes for furnishing bottom heat when the house has solid beds, it is often worth while to run one or more pipes either in the walks on the sides of the beds or overhead. If this is desired, it would be well to use as a flow pipe in each house the 2-inch return now on the inner wall and two of the 2-inch re- turns now on the outer walls could be arranged as returns on the sides of the beds. With the boiler set at the ground level or nearly so, the circulation will be improved if these returns are on the purlin posts over the beds.

Even in the .most severe weather it should be possible to keep the temperature at 50 degrees with one of the two boilers, thus leaving one boiler in reserve. However, it may be more economical of fuel to use both boilers in zero weather. I should suggest running the flow and return connections with the boiler into 6-inch flow and return manifolds, with valves so that either boiler can be cut out if necessary. A 4-inch main flow and a main return of the same size should be run to the old house. The DRY STEAM GIVES FULL HEAT VALUE Fisher Steam Trap Keeps Steam Dry ^ The operation of a steam plant is a constant battle against H Nature. You make steam of water. Nature seeks to change = it back. Nature always succeeds. All mere man can do is ^ retard Nature's process of re-conversion. As the steam leaves ^ the boiler it is dry. It skids along through the mains and ^ radiators and immediately their lower temperature causes it to B commence shedding drops of water. M These drops drain to the nearest low spot and are soon joined ^ by others. They form a pool to rob steam of its energy. If E they aren't ousted quick, any steam passing that point loses B its pep — has its ardor cooled.

The latter part of last week showed an increase of business, though the beginning of the week was somewhat discouraging; with stock at top-notch prices and business slow^ the outlook did not seem promising. In this vicinity the weather conditions are improving and, with increased sunshine and longer day- light hours, everyone in the retail busi- ness looks for a drop in prices. A drop in roses and carnations is expected the coming week and no doubt sweet peas will follow. Sweet peas are arriving in larger quantities and are better in quality than in previous years. The best are now quoted at $3 per hundred and no doubt this price will be standard until after St. Valentine 's day. Other grades are from $2 to $2.50 per hundred. Carnations hold steady around $12, while in some instances $15 per hun- dred is asked. Other grades are as low as $8 per hundred. This winter record prices have been asked for carnations. This is the poor man's flower, but at the prices asked few went into the work- ingman's home. Various Notes. Edward and Edgar Gude, sons of Adolph Gude, of Gude Bros. Co., Wash- ington, D. C, spent two days in Cin- cinnati on their way home from Chi- cago, where they attended the Ameri- can Carnation Society meeting. J. A.

Exceptionally fine and sunny weather prevailing during the latter part of last week resulted in a better supply of cut flowers on this market. Eoses and car- nations were again more plentiful and, if the good weather continues, the out- look is promising for good crops. The demand still exceeds the supply, though the funeral work is no larger than nor- mal for this time of the year, as the flu has not been strong here. The outlook is fine both for the retailer and the grower. The first freesias and stocks have appeared. Sweet peas and calen- dulas are of good quality. Varioiis Notes. August R. Baumer moved last week into his new residence, on Eastern park- way. His Store force is kept on the jump with many shipping orders. The F. Walker Co., 312 Chestnut street, displayed some beautiful orchids and some heather direct from Califor- nia. Flowers from this part of the coun- try are appearing more often on the local market. Marret & Miller have had an exceed- ingly busy week. Their hall and table decorations at the Seelbach hotel, for a party of 200, were excellent, consisting of ferns, red carnations and narcissi for the tables, and palms for the hall. The greenhouses of Jacob Schulz Co., on Cherokee road, are well stocked with plants in good condition. William Schulz has some seedling begonias, which, because they are fof quicker growth than Chatelaine begonias and produce larger flowers and heavier foliage, are promising. They also do not damp off so easily as Chatelaine be- gonias do. His sweet peas are in fine shape and a batch of Holland lilies of the valley was a treat for the eye. The William Walker Co. greenhouses at Ormsby are in fine condition. This company is having a splendid cut of roses, with Columbia an easy favorite. Carnations are showing up again. The first snapdragons are making their ap- pearance and white buddleia, rainbow freesias and calendulas are helping to fill the demand at this store. William Walker, Sr., and Mr. Weller, manager of the store, were visitors at the car- nation show in Chicago. Edith Walker & Bro., on Fourth ave- nue, have a nice display of small orange trees in pots, which are loaded with fruits. Both funerals and social affairs are keeping their force busy, and their specialty of made-up baskets gives them a large part of the transient trade. B. Medfield, Mass. — A. W.

THE FERTILE CHEMICAL CO.,Dept a, Cleveland, Ohio. LOWELL, MASS. The Market. The demand for cut flowers last week was heavy, chiefly owing to the funerals of several prominent people. Cut flow- ers of all kinds were scarce and were used up as fast as they appeared. It is not likely that pot roses, such as ramblers, will be plentiful for Easter, since that day comes so early and since the plants were weaker and especially scarce in the fall of 1919. In fact, scarcity is to be expected in most lines for Easter. Bulbs were late in getting to the hands of growers and did not make much root in the early part of the winter. Various Notes. Clayton Colby is again with Morse & Beals. This firm was displaying last week some pans of fine cypripediums and sweet peas. Mr. Moriarty, of Harvey B. Greene's establishment, attended the funeral of a brother, who was in the trade for a number of years, at Lawrence Janu- ary 24. Mrs. James J. McManmon and one of her daughters were confined to their home with colds last week. Several of the force of this firm were away from work, including a chauffeur, a teamster and greenhouse help. Too many ciphers made the statement in this news-letter January 15 of the violet sales of Morse & Beals at Christ- mas time far above the actual figures. Regret is that the number was inac- curate and the sales were not so large. E. E. E.

Mr. Peterson has been handicapped during a busy week by the illness of three of his assistants. Mr. Holmes is confined to his bed with the grip and Mrs. Dunlop has just undergone an operation. Eosaia Bros, have a fine collection of azaleas on display in their store, with cyclamens, primroses and a good show- ing of cut flowers. During the last week business has been exceptionally good with them. An attractive blanket was made of pink sweet peas, freesias and Aaron Ward roses by George Bosaia. The Woodlawn Flower Shop also had a good week for funeral work, which kept Mr. Clark, who was formerly with the Woodland Park Floral Co., busy in his position as general buyer. Mr. and Mrs. Peterson have returned from their winter's vacation much refreshed. During the last week. Miss Wharton, Mrs. Minch, W. S. Goldbary and F. Bosaia have made visits to Portland.

The daf- fodil fields which supply this company each year are now cutting and Mr. Avansino expects a good crop. J. A. Axell is receiving some fine cineraria plants grown "iij the Hills- borough Nursery. He is busy with local trade, as well as his constantly growing shipping business. The United Flower & Supply Co. will soon be able to offer a good" selection of spring flowers. Already the freesia crop is being cut, while daffodils, nar- cissi, etc., are getting into first-class shape for shipping purposes. Domoto Bros, are bringing in a large number of cineraria plants from their own nursery and are still able to offer flowering azalea plants. Mr. Domoto states that the force at the nursery is busy at the present time planting lily bulbs. It is the opinion of the trade that Easter lilies will be high in price this year, due, among other things, to the shortage of bulbs imported this sea- son. The staff of Enomoto & Co. is busy with spring flower shipments and Mr. Enomoto reports an unusually good sup- ply of violets and daffodils. Fred Smith, Sr., of Tacoma, Wash., has been visiting in California during the last week or so. He is accompanied by Mrs. Smith, and Sunday, January 25, while in San Francisco, they were entertained by Mr. and Mrs. A. J. Gooch. They also paid Los Angeles a visit and expect to leave for the northwest with- in the next few days. Jacob Dieterich, of Los Angeles, was a visitor in San Francisco last week. Gen. A. J. Gooch reports satisfaction with his shipping business and has only one complaint to make, that of stock shortage. At present he is supplying points in the northwest with acacia blooms, for which there is a brisk de- mand. The MacRorie-McLaren Co. reports a rush of funeral work. Last week two exceptionally attractive pieces were made up. One, a wreath of maidenhair, cattleyas and white freesias, was par- ticularly delicate and artistic. The second was a shield made of purple heather sprays and pink roses, with a Masonic emblem of violets in the center on a white background.

BUSINESS BRINSERS— REVIEW OLASSTFTBD AD» CHATELAINE BEGONIA. My begonias, Gloire de Chatelaine, grew and bloomed well until they were shifted to 5-ineh pots and then the tips of the flowering wood dried up. They ■do not seem to be shooting up any more flowering wood growth. They were potted in a compost of one-third well rotted manure, one-third sand and one- third clay loam. They were grown in a temperature of 50 degrees at night and 65 degrees during the day. Kindly ad- vise me what the trouble mav be. G. S. F.— Pa. This begonia is usually of easy cul- ture and it is a really all-the-year- aroiind bloomer. Like all other be- gonias, it likes a rather light but fairly rich soil. I am afraid that your soil is too heavy and that your compost was not made up properly. If your loam is heavy and clayey in nature I should prefer to use one-third of this and two- thirds of leaf-mold, with a good dash of sharp sand added to give the compost porosity. If you ean get a light loam, use one-half of this, one-third leaf -mold and the balance of old, well pulverized manure and sand. Your temperature is all right and if you will use a lighter compost you will have no further trouble of the nature indicated in your letter. C. W. SOIL FOB PRIMULA SEED. Will you kindly inform me what kind of soil to use for primula seedf Is it better to sow the seeds in large pots? A. J. W.— O. Primulas and other flowering annuals want a light soil when sown. One com- posed of three-fourths leaf-mold (rot- ted leaves) and one-fourth loam, with some sand added, will be found about right. Make the surface even, then sow the seeds and press with a small piece of board gently. Later scatter a little sand on top, just enough to cover the seeds. Use shallow pans or flats with good drainage for seed sowing. GULF CYPRESS Greenhouse Nateriak Teckj Cjfim Benck Liaber GLASS HOTBED SASH AU Kinds and Sixes Lower than the market prices.

A. Amling, of Pana^ Illinois The name Amling needs no introduction to the florists' trade, either here or abroad. For the tribe of Amling has flourished in the front rank of the craft since its beginning. W. A, (better known as Walter) Amling is a son of the late W. H. Amling, of Maywootl, Illinois, f and a nephew of Albert F. Amling, of Maywood, for whom the AGMCO built nine Steel Frame Houses, Q 44x550. Reared from infancy in the heart of one of the greatest greenhouse centers in the counti-y, ][ Walter Amling lias an intimate knowledge of greenhouses and the growing game that amounts almost to n ft Q I Q ft Q I Q ft Q I Q t N C O ft 0 I 0 I Q ft Q I Q ft an instinct in discerning the best. He is a grower in the broadest sense of the word and has studie( greenhouses from the grower's standpoint, not only in Illinois, but in every growing center. To perfect his knowledge he made special trips to the leading plants and took voluminous notes of good and bad points, digested them and stored them away for future reference. For he knew, and so did all the wise ones, that he would some day be a big builder of large greenhouse ranges. With his greenhouse observations and study completed and all elements of chance removed from his building problems, he, his brothers and Mr. Berlin formed a corporation and placed with the AGI\ICO an order for 7 Steel frame houses, 36x300 feet Four of these are finished and three are in process of erection. These seven houses represent the most famous type of cut flower house built. Houses ♦riving the greatest economy of operation combined with moderate cost of building. A com- plete and highly efiicient heating system is assured by the AGiMCO heating specialists. But here's the point — everyone can't spend the time and money spent by Walter Amling investigating every phase of greenhouse construction, so why not steal a march on circumstances and profit by his knowledge — cash in on his investment of time and money? Here's an opportunity are you ready? '.€«.-) y • t. e4n i c o New York \/m 5 Colnmbos Circle MaMnic Temple General Office Factory Sales Offices: Chicago Kansas City N. Y. Life Bldg.

RUGOWSKI SEED CO., Inc., Manitowoc, Wisconsin Fbbbdabt U, 1020 The Florists^ Review Another Step ForMrard Burpee's New Primulinus Hybrid Gladioli The most graceful in form, artistic in color, and'profuse in bloom of all gladioli. These varieties have created a sensation wherever they have been exhibited. They are destined to become most useful to the florist on account of their extraordinary appeal as cut flowers. The blooms are distinct and superior to the older types in their delicate form and pleasing arrangement. The individual flowers are not large, but are borne on long, slender stems, with a fascinating grace and refinement. Furthermore, these new hybrids produce three, four, and sometimes even five fully developed and separate flower- spikes to a single bulb. This characteristic will make them the most profitable of all gladioli to grow. We are fortunate in now being able to offer these Primulinus Hybrids for the first time in straight colors. Our col- lection comprises the six most desirable varieties for florists. 6324 Ada.

We will give our customers the benefit of these reductions as fast as possible. Our regular customers know from experience that they are given promptly the benefit of any drop in prices. It is this square dealing, together with the exceptionally fine quality of our roses, that has built up our immense shipping trade. We invite those who wish to place regular shipping orders direct with the grower to give our stock and service a trial. Find out by comparison the advantages of buying direct of a large grower. The value of his greenhouses is largely in his ability to satisfy his customers. Carnations will continue short, as will the shorter length grade of Roses. All miscellaneous flowers still are scarce, but we will do our best to buy any stock wanted which we do not grow ourselves and have on hand. NinMe mi Gnfp SbtfiM, CHICAGO, ILL.

This concern has introduced more new dis- tinct varieties than all other American seedsmen combined. Cheaper seed can be grown elsewhere but better seed nowhere else. It would be an easy matter for us to fill in our stock with cheap seed grown in California or Europe, but we have no desire to descend from our present dominating position where we furnish only seed from transplanted plants grown from stock bred up by years of iildividual plant selection.

A WORD OF WARNING Wc have be^n asked by many of our friends and customers to make it clear that James Vick's Sons are connected in no way with any other Rochester seed house. This is the old origrinal concern, founded by the late James Vick, who during his lifetime was recognized as one of the leading and best loved seedsmen in America. This is the concern that has introduced practically all of the best known strains of Asters, including Vick's Branching Asters, all the Rochesters, Royals, Imperials, Kings, Mikmdos— > in fact there are very few varieties of American Asters in demand by the best growers tl\at were not introduced by us. Let there be no confusion in your minds caused bpr misleading statements from any other source. If you want genuine Vick's Aster Seed and not seed of unknown origin grown in California or some other locality where cheap seeds are produced, be sure to address your letter to James Vick's Sons.

IS The Truck Sensation for 1920 The new Stewart 2000-Ib. Delivery Truck— electric lights, electric starter, magneto ignition, five-inch cord tires, chassis price, $1595 THE real event of the year in truck-building; a big, fast, flexible Stewart Delivery Truck — all truck from the ground up, and at a popular price. Not a bit of passenger car con- struction in it — every part designed by truck engineers for truck: purposes only. Fast for delivery and rush jobs; strong for the heavy hauling from railroad or ware- house; quick in the getaway; beautifully de- signed and balanced; no solid tires to rack the car and damage the good%; proof against sudden, hard shocks; ready for any weather and the toughest kind of going. With all its rugged truck strength, this Stewart delivery truck handles and ticks off trips with the ease of a taxi. It has the speed, convenience and comfort of the frailer, half- breed passenger-car Jtruck. ' f And this new Stewart is a wonderful buy. Its cost is low. Price others, add their "extras," and prove up the claim th^ this is America's greatest truck value. And all the famous "less-cost-to-run" Stew- art features are included — simple design, hundreds of needless parts eliminated; oilless bushings, doing away with 35 grease cups and the time filling them; heavy truck eixles; cast tank radiator; front bumper; rebound spring plates; internal gear drive axle, delivering more than 92% of the engine power to the rear wheels — all features that have made the Stew- art's world-wide reputation for economy. No wonder that the Stewart 2000-lb. Delivery Truck was a hit at the national truck shows, and is a truck headliner for the year. It is the response of the Stewart engineers, after seven years of progressive truck-designing, to the demand of business for a double-utility truck, combining speed and convenience with durability and capacity — a truck that is ready for unusual needs and conditions, and contin- usJly surprises you in its actual performance.

Just six years after a collapse on St. Valentine's day, a loss of $25,000 to $35,000 was suffered when the glass gave way February 5. LMOST six years to the day after a like mishap, ths largest greenhouse in the world went down under the weight, of a heavy snow February 5 at 9 a. m. The big house of the Flo* rex Gardens, at North Wales, Pa., which col- lapsed February 14, 1914, last week suffered a similar acci- dent. This time, however, merely the glass gave way. The structural work, it is asserted, is uninjured. The next largest house at the Florex Gardens, which is older, went down at the end, its structure being injured. The big house, 172x750 feet, shown in the illustration below, is planted to roses, all in ground beds. It was be- lieved that the stock in this house may be saved. Only the glass, which was put in the 24-inch way, gave way under the weight of snow, and men were at work repairing the damage next day. The loss was roughly estimated at from $25,000 to $35,000. The next largest house at Florex Gardens, which col- lapsed at the end, suffered more severe- ly, and it was thought the plants in this house would be lost. Storm Sweeps Atlantic Coast. The blizz^d which last week swept down the Ailantic coast, tying up traffic and burying roads under drifts of snow, caused much anxiety to greenhousemen, who propped their houses and cleaned the roofs to avoid catastrophes. There was a heavy snowfall at North Wales February 3. The following day it changed to rain, and February 5 changed back to snow again. The weight was too great for the wide, flat roof of the big greenhouse at Florex Gardens. The glass gave way, as can be seen in the accompanying illustration, reproduced from a photograph taken at 2 p. m., February 6, showing the south side of the house after the men had begun to repair the damage. Six Years Ago. On St. Valentine's day, in 1914, both the great house at North Wales and Wil- liam H. Elliott 's famous house, 60x1,360, the longest in America, at Madbury, N. H., collapsed. On that occasion a great gale of wind, attaining a velocity of sixty miles an hour, added to the strain caused by the weight of the snow. One third of the quarter-mile long house of William Elliott collapsed, falling from the ridge. The fall at Florex Gar- dens at that time seemed also to be at the ridge, as may be seen from the illus- tration on the following page, depicting the accident in 1914. The south side gave way for about half its length. There were about 70,000 rose plants in the house. At that time heavy financial loss re- sulted, not only to these two firms, but also to many other greenhousemen on the Atlantic seaboard, where the snow was exceptionally heavy and the wind extraordinarily high on that St. Valen- tine's day. Just as is true this year, the fall in that section of the country was much greater than in other parte and the resulting damage along the north Atlantic coast was exceedingly severe. Wide, Flat Roof. The wide, flat roof of the big house at Florex Gardens proved not strong enough to bear the strain of an ex* cessive snowfall. The removal of the snow by steam pipes overhead seeme not to have been successful. The plan of David Fuerstenberg in building such a house, while commendable in many ways, particularly for its economy in construction, has the occasional heavy snowfalls of that latitude against it. The size of the house is not so much responsible as the low pitch of the roof. The builders, the King Construction Co., carried out the original ideas of David Fuerstenberg exactly as he di- rected, assuming no responsibility for the pitch of the roof. David Fuerstenberg retired from the Florex Gardens two or three years ago. The present officers are: President, Raymond C. Mayhew; vice-president and treasurer, William A. Geiger; secre- tary, Eugene Bernheimer. Construction Plans. In this connection it will be of inter- est to note the description by R. O. King, of the King Construction Co., of ^.-^ South Side of Big House at Florex Oatideos, with Men at Work Repairing Damage from Heavy Snow. 26 "*!y::fi The Florists^ Review Pbbbcaby 12, 1020 Great Greenhouse, 172x750, at the Florex Gardens, North Wales, Pa., as H Appeared After the Collapse in I9I4. the plans for the first big house at North Wales. At the meeting of the American Carnation Society at Toronto, in 1907, he said in a paper read to the conven- tion: "This honse is a great departure from present standards and will set a record for wide houses which is not likely to be surpassed for some time, or at least until we can profit from the success or failure of the gentlemen who are willing to experiment on such a grand scale. "Beginning with the glass, it is de- sired to lay it with the supporting bars twenty-four inches apart. Referring to the table, it is found that the average weight required to break the glass is thirty pounds per square foot. This is equivalent to about one foot of wet snow. The glass is hardly likely to be called upon to stand more than this, so the question of strength against dead weight can be considered settled. "The framework of the house must be made strong enough to carry some- what more weight than the glass could stand, so that the glass would break before the framework collapsed, the de- sign, complete, leaving the glass the weakest member, as it should be, for it is seen that although the breaking strength of the glass is thirty pounds per square foot, and the breaking strength of the truss work is the same, yet the glass is not uniform in strength, whereas the trusses are, and as thirty pounds is an average, it follows that half the glass would be broken by the time this load would be reached and if half the glass is broken, half the weight has gone with it, so our framework stands to be subjected in the limit to only one-half of its breaking load." Collapse at Wobum, Mass. Another loss as a result of the bliz- zard February 5 was that of Everett E. Cummings, at Wobum, Mass. A house of sweet peas just coming into crop collapsed on the same day as did the houses at North Wales, Pa. Mr. Cum- mings estimates his loss at approximate- ly $10,000. USIlfQER'S UTTERANCES. The Hasselbring Flower Store, Flint, Mich., reports the best winter trade that it has ever enjoyed. Plans are being made to care for the increased business that the rapid growth of Flint will bring. The busy winter season has kept D. P. Smith, Flint, Mich., from enjoying his usual western trip, where the climate is not so severe as in Ips state. Miss Zorn and her assistant were sick for several days. Miss Zorn being the first to return to work. Arthur Mackinnon, Flint, Mich., be- lieves the present high prices will be harmful to. future business. He mixes pessimism with optimism, however, by remarking, "We are selling everything we can buy at big prices." Herman Thiemann, Owosso, Mich., is planning a trip to Switzerland next summer. He hopes to be able to dis- pose of his place before sailing. For the last few years, Boehringer Bros., Bay City, Mich., have been troubled at this time of the year by the burning of foliage on roses. Several conditions seemed to be the cause, but this year it was found that a chemical reaction in the river water when the river was frozen over Tiad been the cause. This was the report of the city's chemical experts. The river is polluted by the dumpings from the chemical factories in the vicinity of the river. Edward Freyling, of the Wealthy Avenue Floral Co., Grand Rapids, Mich., has had many commissions for land- scape work this season, but the shortage of skilled landscape gardeners may force him to cancel some of his work. Arthur Crabb, Grand Rapids, Mich., the Rotary florist, has been busy ex- changing telegraph orders. This work t ( '■ '■» has been growing with considerable rapidity and causes much favorable comment from the busy Mr. Crabb. Henry Smith, Grand Rapids, Mich., is spending a few weeks in the south. This is Mr. Smith's first vacation in a quarter of a century. Watson-s Flower Store, Adrian, Mich., has enjoyed a successful winter. Although there is a low death rate here, the business has been well sustained by an excellent counter trade. Charles Randall, of the Maple City Floral Co., Adrian, Mich., reports a steady business in all lines. Mr. Ran- dall is fortunate in having ft cellar of well developed bulbous plants. W. T. U. BONE MEAL FOB CAU.AS. Will you kindly inform me whether bone meal is injurious to calla lilies if mixed with the soil when giving the plants a shift, using a 5-inch potful to a large wheelbarrow load of old carna- tion soil that has lain outdoors for a year! Is it better to apply the bone as a top-dressing, using a small handful to an 8-inch pott J. M. G.— Tex. Bone meal is quite beneficial to callas. A 5-inch potful to a wheelbarrow load of loam is not any too much. I prefer to use a 6-inch potful. In addition, I would use some cow or sheep manure if you have any. Callas are wonderfully benefited by top-dressings of bone meal. After they are well rooted you can safely use a scant handful on an 8-inch pot once in ten or twelve days in winter, and once a week after April 1. The way the roots come up and de- vour this bone is surprising. I know of no other calla food that is equal to bone. C. W. Ashvllle, O. — M. M. Hott runs the greenhouse here.

Success Through Coliperation. The year 1920 should be a banner year for florists. The people have never had so much money to spend and it is up to us to have them "Say It with Flowers." Almost all lines of trade cannot get enough merchandise to sell, while we florists of Boston have been fortunate in being able to get nearly all the flowers we want. Of course, we have had to pay a good price, but what of it I Everything else has gone up, and why not flowers? People do not question the price of anything else, but why flowers! We must educate the public to the fact that the cost of pro- ducing and handling flowers has gone up just as everything else has. We retailers certainly must en- courage the grower to produce the best flowers he possibly can, and we must make up our minds to pay him a fair price for his flowers. We must try to look out for him and encourage him as much as possible. We must all try to accomplish something. When we grow flowers and plants we should grow the best, and when we sell flowers and plants we should sell the best, and when we handle flowers and plants we should try to pack them the best we know how. Everybody likes to handle flowers that come packed right and not thrown into the box the way some are. What we need is a better understand- ing between grower, salesman, retailer and wholesaler. What we need is or- ganization. The future development and the present protection of the cut flower industry require organization. What individuals fail to accomplish can only be done by organization. Grading of Soses. We retainers do not kick so much about high prices for roses or anything else if they are handled and graded properly. Take, for instance, Hadley roses. It is fair to say that twenty-five per cent of them are unfit to send out as cut flowers. My suggestion would be to take these weak-necked roses and grade them separately. Then when we pay 30, 40, 50 and 75 cents for Hadley, or any other rose, we shall know how to figure what they cost us. This same rule should hold good on all roses. Consider the handling of violets. Take, for instance, the violets grown by Kidder Bros. There is not a man here who would not rather pay them 50 cents per hundred more for their violets than he pays anybody else, and whyf Because they handle them properly and bunch them properly and select every flower. For that reason we are all anxious for them, never complaining about the price. How many other violet growers do that? Gluts In the Market. Every retailer should try to help the grower out when a glut comes. With a little publicity, low prices of flowers Paper read by WlUiam Penn at the meetinK of the Btmtem T\ori0ta' Association Februair 3. would attract many new buyers and bring back many of our old customers who have left the flower stores and gone to the candy shop and book shop. The cost of the advertising would be small compared with the benefit we all would receive. We must all let the public know when flowers are cheapest, and not let George do it. Let us try to make buying in the markets a little more pleasant. Of course, we are not all college graduates, but, with a little more friendly spirit, I think in time we can have a florists' as- sociation in Boston that will be a credit to the city. The trouble with most of us is that we are knockers instead of boosters. What we need is more boosting and less knocking. What most of us ought to do is to clean house ourselves first and sweep off our own doorsteps before THE OTHEB SIDE. Threshing out the differences between the various branches of the trade is the first step of the Boston Florists' Association in promoting greater cooperation be- tween them. At tl}e January meeting the growers presented their case. The vigorous remarks of WiUlam H. Elliott on that oc- casion were printed in The Ke- vlew for January 15. At the Feb- ruary meeting last week the re- tailers gave their views. Chief among the speakers were William Penn and E. F. Gomey, whose papers appear here. we criticise the other fellows. None of us are perfect and we are all willing to learn. Let us all work together from now on and play the game fair. Growing New Varieties. I think it would be a good suggestion for the grower and retailer to get to- gether in reference to the growing of new varieties once in a while. Surely no harm could come out of it and there might be some good. The retailer might be able to tell the grower something which would save him many a dollar. Remember, Mr. Grower, Mr. Retailer, Mr. Commission Man, and Mr. Whole- saler, in union there is strength. FROM A EETAILEE'S VIEW. Seply to Growers. I was much impressed by the talks of the growers at the last meeting. I know they find it necessary to expend much energy on their investment, and there is no reason in the world why they should not get better results, not in particular this year, but every year. I think all growers made money this year. I agree with Mr. Elliott that waxed and artificial flowers should not be sold Paper read by E. F. Gomey at the meeting of the Boston Florists' Association February 3. by florists and that natural flowers should be used in their stead. The grow- ers could help by not putting the screws on too tight. We should encourage the use of flowers in every possible way, and I don't believe that there is a re- tailer in this room who objects to pay- ing the market prices for them. Natur- ally, we try to buv as low as possible and, on the other hand, you try to get as much as possible. That makes the market price, and we do not begrudge the grower what he gets under these conditions. Boycott a Myth. What I would like to know -s where the impression was created that the re- tailers were to boycott flowers for Christmas. I was sickened to hear so much talk about it at the last meet- ing. I will wager any man here $100 that he cannot prove there was any such move among the retailers. This was a false impression spread by some- one who wanted to cause trouble. If the retailers proposed to boycott they would injure their own means of live- lihood, as their business is to sell flow- ers and that is why there are retail stores. Don't you growers and sales- men give us credit for knowing better T The fact is that we met at the re- quest of tho chairman of the retail com- mittee, appointed by our chairman, and discussed retailing in general. How- ever, it is true that during our infornAl talk the suggestion was made that we push plants instead of flowers, and there are logical reasons for that. In the first place, as plants are all bought at reasonable prices, we see our way clear to make a reasonable profit on them. On the other hand, there was no way of telling what cut flowers would cost, and we could not give our customers any definite prices ahead of time. If we did base our prices on what we thought the market prices would be, the cus- tomers would be apt to give up the idea of buying flowers for Christmas on ac- count of the cost. It is the same story every year; cut flowers fluctuate more than plants. In November I was sell- ing carnations at $1.50 per dozen and roses at $1.50 per dozen up. During the Christmas season I h^ to sell car- nations for $4 per dozen, and roses from $5 per dozen up, whereas plants were about the same. A cyclamen always costs about the same in November as it costs in December. This is a great drawback to the cut flower business, but It cannot be helped, as the law of supply and demand causes that fluc- tuation, and it seems beyond our power to do anything but obey that law. Push Plants First. As a matter of fact, the retailer pushes plants at flrst, but when the rush 13 ended we always find that more flow- ers are sold than were expected. I have followed the principle of pushing plants ever since I have been in the business and, so far as I can see, it is nothing new. Is this what you mean by boycotting flowerst If so, I will admit boycotting. But I think that T>y .•»:""^ w'iw,ji'i,j»ipiw|i.ij»4i ^-iii*.4.f|«H-i"y*jPM'|J!!u.ii(ji './nv*Mi^t-w|j^^.«r'".»i?T 32 The Florists^ Review Fbbboabt 12, 1920 plants are as much a part of the flo- rist 's business as cut flowers. Betalllng In Markets. On the other hand, on the strength of the rumor, you intended opening the market to the public. Of course if that is ever done and done often enough, it will put the retailer out of business. Would that be a benefit to the growers and salesmen! In my opinion, it would certainly be detrimental to everyone, although, as a matter of fact, the mar- kets are open to the public right now and on a large scale. Anybody can go in through any of the doors and buy anything there at much less than the retail price. The public can get the flowers as cheaply as we can. For every bank opening, every ship launching, every prominent funeral, a great many flowers ar« made up in the market. De- partment store collections also go to the markets. Two weeks ago one of our retailers lost a $150 job because he could not compete with the price given by a sales- man in the market. Last week I was asked for a price on 100 red carnations for a banquet. As the market price for all reds was $15 per hundred, I quoted $20. My customer said, "Gomey, I am sorry, but I have a price of $16 from a person in the market. ' ' I sold a custom- er a dozen poinsettias at Christmas for $9. After I had put them aside for him, he aaid, "I am sorry, but I have just bought my flowers in the market for $4 a dozen. ' ' I could not blame him for buying more cheaply, could If Action Needed. These are only a few isolated cases. I could get you the facts on hundreds if you wanted them. Do you call that fair to the retailer? Here we are, pre- pared, under heavy expenses, for re- tailing, and depend solely on retailing for our livelihood. The markets are situated in the heart of the city and the salesmen who sell have no expenses so far as retailing is concerned. In what other line of business can the public buy anything at wholesale? I know of none. Betailing in the market is of no benefit to the grower. It is only side money to the salesman and does not be- long to him, but does belong te us. It is a serious matter and must be stopped. Every retailer is dissatisfied with these conditions, and they are all talking of the necessity of a retail organization. If a grower sees fit to do retailing, the retailer can find no objection, as he, the grower, has an establishment with fixed expenses, and if he thinks there is money in retailing, he is wel- come to it. Some growers know there is more money in wholesaling only; some feel otherwise. That is their business. Is it fair to have a salesman buy up fiowers in the market before it opens and then resell them to us at an extra profit only to himself? Is it fair to have a manager of a market buy up flowers for orders that he has to fill? Should not a manager be for the sole purpose of taking care of the market, instead of having a side retail business of his own? Betailing in the markets has been stopped in almost all other cities, and I should like to know if it should not be stopped here. I believe this organization can do it. We do not need a retail organization, as it is much better that we come out in theopen and air our troubles. No doubt the sales- men may have some suggestions and complaints to make, and we shall be glad to hear from them. I believe that the Boston Florists' Association is com- posed of fair-minded members who be- lieve in the motto, "Live and let live." pBLMiyMmaogaas WHAT ARE FLOWERS WORTH? Klr7•^1r^r?s^1r^s^1Y*^1r?«tl^rs^1r^^1rrs>(1r^sx1^/s^T^s^1Iysv1r^4^1r^^^1r)«\1^ MORE ABOUT PRESENT PRICES. Considering Causes. An anonymous writer quoted in The Review of January 29 feels that the wholesalers from whom he buys have increased the price on cut flowers in a desire to be arbitrary and dominating. The remarks published editorially with the quotation furnished the needed re- ply, but there are still other answers that might have been given. Upon reflection everyone will agree that in view of the steadily increasing costs of fuel, labor, plants, bulbs and equipment, commercial growers must have increased returns per flower. Not only because of the heavy supply of mums last year have roses lost their usual average, but during the period of cloudy skies from December 1 to Jan- uary 20, roses were decidedly less pro- lific than usual. Criticism of prices can result from one of two lines of reasoning: That the critic's competitors pay less and there- fore sell for less, or that the scale of prices is not consistent with the in- crease in price scales of other com- modities. The first trouble generally results where the competitor grows his own stock. It must be plain that if growers who sell through wholesale houses and who grow their stock on a large scale in the most economical way are getting only enough from their crop to afford them a fair profit, the retailer who is growing his own stock with a huge overhead is selling below cost. It is in- evitable that his season's returns will prove this to be true. We all know, however, that such a retail florist is consoling his profit account by figuring his growing and retailing business as one and is satisfied with a small profit on his investment of time, labor and greenhouse and retailing equipment. If the retailer who buys on the wholesale market wants to work on as narrow a margin of interest on his investment as his competitor, he will not need to com- plain about prices, for the scale will be about the same in both cases. Flowers Are EssemtiaL The second difficulty is also unfound- ed. Cut flowers have not increased in proportion with other commodities and particularly not with other so-called nonessential things. Pleasure cars, candy, theater tickets and musical in- struments have increased in cost tre- mendously, yet they are in greater de- mand than ever before and statisti- cians can foresee no immediate fall in the demand for them. Then why not flowers? Flowers are considerably more essential to the hap- piness of people than these things and the mission of flowers is far-reaching. Every florist must sometime in his ex- perience realize that his business is not a nonessential vocation. Until he under- stands this he will continue to be afraid to ask the prices for his flowers that he must get to insure himself a good liv- ing. We are dealing with a product that lends happiness to many a heart in every hour and therefore we are en- titled to a good living from this busi- ness. If we allow the current of discontent that seems so prevalent at this time to enter our otherwise progressive busi- ness, we may find ourselves adrift among the thousands who are stranded on the desert of self-justification, with no food but the fruits of Bolshevism and no drink but the flow of selfish ar- guments. Wm. A. Hansen. PRICES ARE NOT KEGH. Complaints Always Made. No invitations have been sent out for "has been" retailers to "horn in" on the discussion going on between the retailers and the wholesalers, but I have been reading with considerable interest the communications in The Review un- der the heading, "Problem in Prices," and I feel that I would like to say my say, if I have one coming, being now a grower of gladioli solely. We all look forward to the time when there will be no chronic complainers, but we have them with us now, have had tiiem with us for a long, long time, and the chances are that we shall have them with us for some time to come. They just can't help it. They do it, many of them, as unconsciously as a smoker lights his pipe. They don't mean anything by it; it's just a habit with them. So let 's forgive them. They did it when we charged them 75 cents or $1 per dozen for carnations; they are still doing it and still buying. Comparative Cost. Flowers are no higher now than they were several years ago, if one looks at the problem from the correct angle. Should the grocer, the butcher, the baker, the barber, the tailor and the others who have doubled the prices on what they sell the florist complain if the florist doubles the price on the flowers he sells them? It requires no more effort to earn $8 with which to buy a dozen carnations today, than it did to earn $1 with which to buy them a few years ago; so flow- ers are no higher now than they were then. The same effort buys the same flowers. Now, regarding the price the whole- ^k;"/!^"5^.7T7' .(l-'^'^S *^yr^cK!v^ '^ •^'1, 7l^'' '75?«^ Fbbbuaby 12, 1920 The Florists^ Review 33 saler should charge the retailer, I want to say that during my ten years as a retailer there were times when the prices were so high it almost seemed as if the wholesaler were trying to put me out of business (though I knew his de- sire was far from that). Then, again, there were times when flowers were so cheap it was just like taking milk from a baby — and we all took it; so it seems to me it 's just about a fifty-fifty propo- sition. Demand Ctovems Price. The price of cut flowers seems to me to be governed more by the law of sup- ply and demand than that of any other commodity. It is my opinion that a better arrangement for price fixing can- not be found. Speaking of demand, gentlemen, has it ever occurred to you what has caused the unusual demand of the last twelve months or more? I claim that it is co- operation and with a little more of it you can double the supply of flowers and the demand will take care of it. If I remember correctly, and I think I do, just a few months before this un- usual demand began, florists started a national campaign of cooperative adver- tising in which both the wholesaler and the retaUer united in pushing "Say It with Flowers." T. D. Smedley. NEW YORK. The Market. New York and vicinity have expe- rienced one of tlie worst snow storms in history. In some respects it outdid the blizzard of 1888. It started early Wednesday, February 4, and continued throughout the next day, the snow al- ternating with hail and sleet and some rain to finish it. The result has been a general tie-up of transportation facili- ties. Under the circumstances the cut flower market has been poorly supplied, many growers finding it impossible to get their product into the city. After bright weather Saturday and Sunday, February 7 and 8, conditions are some- what improved. The market is well supplied now and the demand is suffi- cient to take all arrivals. Bulbous flowers predominate and some fine stock is arriving. Tulips and narcissi are in heavy supply and move well at good prices. Freesias are generally of high quality and bring 35 cents to 75 cents per bunch. There is a big supply of hybrid freesias available in different shades of color, but they do not appear to excite much interest. Eoses are in short sup- ply. American Beauty is scarcer than any other and prices remain at the high point that they reached two or three weeks ago. Hybrid teas are in some- what better supply, but in the short grades continue scarce. Carnations are in better supply, but the price of the best stock is still high, $15 per hundred being the top price now, with Laddie and selected flowers bringing as much as $20. Cattleyas are in larger supply, but the demand for them is not particu- larly active. Cypripediums are plenti- ful. There is a fair supply of gardenias and the quality was never better; in fact, more magnificent flowers have seldom been seen. Valley is abundant and moves slowly. It is evident that the extreme shortage of the last several months has been over- t^WWl^WWWWWW[«^WWt^l^ GEORGE C. WEILAin). OF course you know Evanston, 111. It is Chicago's highbrow suburb, seat of Northwestern University. George C. Weiland is a hard-headed, hard-working florist; he hasn't been spoiled by living his entire life in the rarified atmosphere of Evanston. He was born there in 1880, the same year that his father, Matt Weiland, established the business of which the son now is the head. In addition to conducting a downtown retail store, Mr. Weiland has a range of glass in Evanston, devoted to carnations and miscellaneous stock, also a new range at Niles Center, 111., where roses are grown. Mr. Weiland was one of the organ- izers and now is president of the Chicago Flower Growers' Association, the whole- sale outlet through which some sixty growers sell their stock on the Chicago market. He is a life member of the S. A. F., a member of the F. T. D., the Chicago Florists' Club and many other trade organizations, besides being a fourth degree member of the Knights of Columbus. He is married and there are six Weilands of the third generation to become florists. come and we are not likely to have a repetition of it, at least in the near fu- ture. Easter lilies continue scarce and bring as much as $40 per hundred for the best. A few rubrums are to be had at 10 cents to 12 cents per flower. There is a good supply of miscellane- ous flowers, including calendulas, wall- flowers, pansies, mignonette, bouvardia, primulas, violets and snapdragons. Sweet peas are plentiful and move well. Lilac is in small supply. Acacias are to be had at $2 to $4 per bunch and there is a quantity of forsythia branches, which move at prices accord- ing to quality. Callas are in better supply. Various Notes. The storm of last week seriously af- fected the florists' business, curtailing the supply and making express ship- ments impossible. While most of the near-by growers managed to get ship- ments in, it was only by personal effort and in many cases consignments were brought in as emergency baggage. Many growers report breakage of glass during the storm, but, with a mild temperature prevailing throughout the storm, there was little damage to the stock. By the orders of Mayor Hylan, the only trafSc allowed on the street was that in con- nection with the food supply and the preservation of the public health. This hampered business because of the with- drawing of the express and teaming service. Never before were the streets of New York in such a deplorable con- dition and only by the suspension of 34 The Florists^ Review FXBBCABT 12, 1920 traffic could anything be done to clean up. One of the houses of the Duckham- Pierson range, at Madison, N. J., was damaged during the storm, about sixty feet of eave giving way. It is only a little ever a month before the international flower show will be held in the Grand Central Palace. It opens March 15. Preparations are in fine shape and, with a good attendance, the show will prove to be as successful as its predecessors. The committee in charge of the show held a meeting, Mon- day, February 9, at which much busi- ness in the way of final preparations was transacted. The city department of parks has again promised support to the show and will stage some fine ex- hibits. There is not much space left for trade exhibits; so it is certain that this feature of the show will be as im- portant as ever. Charles W. Knijght, vice-president of the New York Florists' Club, was un- able to attend the club meeting held Monday, February 2, due to the illness of Mrs. Knight,, who is convalescing at the Sunnyside hospital, Babylon, L. I., after a serious operation. A. M. Henshaw, president of the club, has nearly recovered from an attack of the flu, reaching home last week from Pittsburgh, where he was taken ill. The Greek- American Florists' Asso- ciation will hold its thirteenth annual ball Thursday, February 26, at the Hotel Commodore. W. H. De Graff, Leiden, Holland, ar- rived in the city last week. He brought with him the gold medal which the General Bulb Growers' Society of Haar- lem, Holland, is offering for the finest collection of flowering bulbs and bulb- ous-rooted plants at the international flower show. J. H. P. hJv»A'^*yjLv»y':.v»>ji.v»yi.v*^jw!wi^^ WAITING FOR THE OROWEB. An Emergency In the Trade. It is almost pitiful in these days to hear the retailer begging for stock to fill his orders. A man will go into a wholesale house; he perhaps has an or- der, often a large one, to fill for some- one who has been a good customer for years; he will find that his portion of the stock to be had that morning is al- together insufficient for the order he has, to say nothing of the day's sales. Now, this same man may be one who is loudest in his condemnation of the high prices of flowers, but on such an occasion prices are never mentioned; he never thinks of what he will have to pay for the stock, of what profit he is going to derive from his order; he looks upon the whole thing as an emergency and has but one object in view, and that is to get sufficient stock to fill his order. When we come to analyze his motives, we cannot help saying that this is the proper procedure. There is no doubt that in such a case an emergency exists. When the Pusher Is Pushed. Let us consider for a moment of what it consists. It is so simple that a child can understand it. The fiorist's cus- tomer wants a certain order of fiowers; a retailer cannot take an order subject to being able to get the stock to fill it; his local market is short and there is not much use in trying out of town, for he will find that the same conditions exist everywhere. la it any wonder that high prices exist under these conditions? Yet such scenes are to be witnessed on the wholesale flower market every day. Eecently a man who has been the head of a large wholesale house for over thirty years said that he had never seen anything like it in all of his experience and recalled that there was a time when they had to push the business, but now the business was pushing them. The whole trouble is lack of produc- tion and there is certainly no chance to deny this when every day we find it im- possible to get sufficient flowers to fill the demand. But to say lack of produc- tion does not help the situation any. Judging from the reports in The Re- view, which tell each week what the state of the market is in all the large cities of the country, there is no flower market in this country that is not suf- fering through lack of production. Bring Up Production to Demand. Admitting that the lack of production is an established fact, the next question is, why does this lack of production exist f And, like the Irishman, I think this can be answered by asking another one. If there were no more cut flowers being sold today than there were several years ago, would there be the extra- ordinary shortage of flowers that exists today? The publicity committee is working overtime to popularize flowers. Condi- tions are ripe for this campaign and there is more money in circulation than was ever known before in this country. We have, through this committee, been creating a demand and have been giv- ing all our attention to this phase of the question and not enough to produc- ing the article for which the demand is created. Now, any sensible business man will realize that there are just two things to do in such a case; either stop advertising and creating a demand for flowers, in which case all of the effort and money that have been spent so far can be charged to profit and loss, or else push the campaign harder and then pro- duce the flowers to take care of the in- creased demand. To Stay In, Get Ahead. Never was there an opportunity like the present for the florist to increase his business. When it was said that the business was now pushing the whole- saler, I could not help thinking what an opportunity it was for the florists; all they have to do is get the stock, and even if increased production does bring prices back to normal, you still have the opportunity to push the business. Another thing that I wish to call at- tention to is the fact that the florists' business is being watched by those out- side of the trade. If present conditions pxist much longer it will be only a short time before outside capital will be in- vested in the business; we hear now of an $800,000 range to be erected in New Jersey. When we think of the capit^ in this country and the shrewd business men looking for an opportunity to in- vest it, the growers, if they hope to stay in business, should intrench themselves now. Once let the large corporations get into the production of flowers and it will be only a matter of time until they will be pushing the business and some of those who are now letting the busi- ness push them will be working for these corporations. The florists should do some serious thinking at this time; the business is passing through a crisis and what its future will be is up to those who are now engaged in it. The question arises. Are there enough big men in it to han- dle it? I, for one, answer yes. Tate. TYPHA LATIFOIJA. Can you give us the Latin name of the enclosed specimen of cat-tail f We should like also to know the method of propagation, whether from seed or di- vision. B. H. F. — Kan. The botanical name of the variety of cat-tail that you forwarded is Typha latif olia. Propagation is either by seeds or by division of roots and is compara- tively simple. C. W. WASHINGTON, D. 0. The Market. The heavy snow storms during the last week have not helped things any and in some cases the growers found it impossible to get in with their stock. Funeral flowers are hard to get and the demand is still on the increase, due to the flu epidemic. Out-of-town orders are coming in fast and it is impossible to fill half of them. Business has been a little better and all stock has cleaned up well. Club Meeting. At the February meeting of the Flo- rists' Club, it was announced that the local florists are to be hosts to the American Carnation Society's conven- tion next winter. A. Gude and D. G. Grillbortzer, the newly elected vice- president of the society, made a report to the club on their visit to the conven- tion of the society in Chicago. Nominations for officers for the en- suing year were made as follows: President, J. Harper Hetherington and George Anderson; vice-president, A. E. Gude, Jr.; secretary, George V. Schultz and E. L. Jenkins; treasurer, W. F. Gude; financial secretary, Z. D. Black- istone. Election of officers will take place at the March meeting. The Tennessee State Florists' Society invited Z. D. Blackistone and W. F. Gude to speak at its meeting in Knox- ville, Tenn. Various Notes. John Sharper, of Oxon Hill, Md., is known as one of the most ambitious young growers in this section. Four year ago he had about 8,000 feet of glass and now he has 32,000 feet under glass, with the addition of about 5,000 feet under construction. His brother, Herbert Sharper, is his assistant. They are both hard workers and are success- fully carrying on the business together. Mr. Sharper grows stock for the Leo Niessen Co. G. V. S. »jyi^ «pwpji.*i,W|i"ii;i«». iwwi.

The Federal Horticultural Board gave a three hours' hearing February 10 on the subject of the importation of orchids under Quarantine 37. At its conclusion it was believed that the atmosphere was somewhat cleared and groundwork had been laid for the board to issue modifi- cations of the quarantine at least to permit growers to obtain reasonable supplies of plants for propagating pur- poses, or to issue a statement indicating clearly the extent to which growers can obtain plants. According to Dr. C.> L. Marlatt, who presided, there is an impression in the trade that the quarantine shuts off both old and new varieties, and during the course of the conference he made state- ments the substance of which was as follows: That new varieties as well as old can be imported on application. That nothing is cut off that is really needed. That only the purely commercial entry for immediate sale has been cut off. That if growers find that other grow- ers will not let them have certain va- rieties or charge extortionate prices, the board will issue permits to bring in enough of these varieties to carry out the methods of reproduction, supplies to be liberal in order to allow for the obtaining of satisfactory flowers. That if plants for reproduction pur- poses were brought in under permit in reasonable quantities, the board did not care what was done with the flowers; they could be sold or given away. That varieties to be permitted entry do not have to be new, the test being unavailability. Question of Production. In opening the hearing Dr. Marlatt stated that the board has been assured that the quarantine as it now stands has proved satisfactory generally and that it gives the orchid producers the pro- tection that they long needed. He said that it will be only a few years until home-grown orchids satisfy all reason- able needs in this country if they do not exceed them, and that the question now is whether the orchid business in this country can take care of itself with such importations as are permitted. John E. Lager, of Lager & Hurrell, Summit, N. J., made an extended state- ment against the quarantine and asked that it be practically lifted, maintain- ing that it had not been proved that the orchid was a carrier of pests or dis- eases that could not be guarded against. W. L. Jones, representing Thomas B. Young, Jr., Boundbrook, N. J., detailed the success in raising orchid hybrids and seedlings at the Young nurseries and maintained that this nursery could supply 50,000 plants a year. Joseph A. Manda, of West Orange, N. J., declared that importations were necessary to keep up stocks and that if hybrids are to be kept up we must have the species. Luis F. Carrillo, of Mamaroneck, N. Y., declared that importsitions should be freely permitted. He said that a few growers had practically cornered propa- gating stock and were holding it at high prices. He said that he was asked $7 for plants which he could import if the quarantine were off for $1. Not Tariff Matter. Frank E. Pierson, of Tarrytown, N. Y., who made the closing statement, said that to him it appeared that the whole question before the board was whether it was safe to import orchids. He said that the Secretary of Agriculture had decided in connection with quarantines that the burden of proof was on the gov- ernment, and he advised the board to keep this in mind. He said that ar- rangements could be made at ports of entry to m^ke examinatisjis "^^ orchids to see if they were infested. "I think we have been digressing," he said. "We have been discussing whether we can produce or cannot pro- duce. This is not a tariff discussion. Because you merely think that some in- jurious insects may be introduced, you have no power under the law, as it was intended, to keep these plants out. Yo\i have never made a prima facie case that orchids introduce specific diseases or insects." Dr. Marlatt, in concluding the hear- ing, said that he agreed with Mr. Pier- son that the purpose of the board had nothing to do with the commercial fea- tures of the case, and in referring to the suggestion made for a port inspec- tion, he said that the board had recom- mended such a system to Congress. In addition to those named above, the following were present, several of whom participated in the discussion: J. D. Eisele, president of Henry A. Dreer, Inc., Philadelphia; George E. Baldwin, Mamaroneck, N. Y.; Edouard Eoehrs, Rutherford, N. J.; J. K. M. L. Farquhar, Boston; W. J, Vesey, Fort Wayne, Ind.; Alphonse Pericat, CoUingdale, Pa., and G. B. Alberts, Louisville, Ky. T. O. M. Youngstown, O. — John Walker has recently bought a tract of fourteen acres, part of the Price farm, west of Hubbard, and will erect on it a range to cost about $30,000. He sold his Logan avenue greenhouses and six acres of land to the Youngstown Ice Co. Blchmond, Ind.— Joseph H. Hill Co. has placed a contract with the Lord & Burnham Co., through the Chicago ofiSce, for another iron-frame greenhouse, 80x400, to be erected at once. It is to parallel on the north the first L. & B. house, 60x400, separated from it by sufficient space to avoid shade. tpK^Mg^MS^HKiMyH^^ THE TRADE'S SHARE HOW MONEY IS SPENT. Agricultural Appropriation Bill. The agricultural appropriation bill for the fiscal year beginning July 1, 1920, reported to the House of Representa- tives by the committee on appropria- tions, consideration of which was begun February 5, contains several appropria- tions of interest to florists. One is an appropriation of $54,750 to develop a port inspection service in the enforce- ment of quarantines established under the provisions of the plant quarantine act. In this connection the commit- tee's report states: "The department is now enforcing fourteen quarantines prohibiting or restricting the entry of foreign plants, fruits and plant products. It is also enforcing seven others regu- lating and restricting the entry of addi- tional foreign products. These quaran- tines and orders are being enforced in cooperation with the customs service, but the burden on that service has grown to such an extent that it havS been necessary for the Department of Agriculture to take over the actual en- forcement of these quarantines at the principal ports of entry, as far as possi- ble, through the service now maintained to prevent the entry into the United States of the pink bollworm of cotton through importation from Egypt, Mex- ico and other foreign countries. Cali- fornia and Florida are the only states which have established adequate port inspection services." The full appro- priation under this heading is $100,450. $70,000 for Japanese Beetle. Under the heading "Deciduous Fruit Insect Investigation," the committee stated: "There is an apparent increase in this item of $72,720, but, as $2,280 has been transferred to statutory rolls, the actual increase is $75,000. This additional amount will be used for ex- tending the work in the control of the Japanese beetle. The allotment for this work under the present appropriation is $25,000, which, with $30,000 to be made immediately available, provides a total of $55,000 for this purpose during the fiscal year 1920. The remaining $45,000 of the increase, together with $25,000 allotted for the control of the Japan- ese beetle from the present appropria- tion, will make $70,000 available for combating this post during the next fis- cal year. ' ' Seed Reports Cost Less. The item, ' ' Market News Service, ' ' represents a combination of the items for market news service on (1) fruits and vegetables, (2) peanuts, (3) dairy and poultry products, and (4) grain, hay, feeds and seeds, aggregating $392,- 600 for the current year. The apparent decrease is $78,000, but as $25,620 has been transferred to the statutory roll, there is an actual decrease of $52,380. The full appropriation under this head- ing is $314,600. The bill is scheduled to pass the House during the latter part of the week ending February 14, and after passage by the House it goes to the Senate for consideration. T. O. M.

A regular meeting of the New York Florists' Club was held in the club's rooms in the Engineering Societies' building February 9. There was a fair attendance of members and others, in spite of the bad traveling conditions due to the recent storm. On account of lack of transportation facilities, there was no refectory that evening. Presi- dent A. M. Henshaw was prevented by illness from being present, and Vice- president C. W. Knight was absent, due to the illness of his wife. Ex-president Philip F. Kessler therefore was voted into the chair and presided throughout the evening. Roman J. Irwin, chairman of the an- nual dinner committee, reported that it had been arranged to hold the annual banquet at the Hotel Biltmore, March 17. The price of tickets would be $5, at which price it will be necessary to have an attendance of about 400. After some discussion, the committee was em- powered to invite guests within its dis- cretion. Wm. H. Siebrecht, Jr., for the legis- lative committee, reported that the club's charter had been duly amended according to the direction of the club. Arthur Herrington, of the flower show committee, reported that the pros- pects for a successful show were exceed- ingly good and bespoke the assistance of every member toward their material- ization. Secretary Young reported that at a meeting of the committee that aft- ernoon it had been decided to make the admission fee $1, which will include war tax. Trade tickets will remain at the rate fixed, 40 cents each, with face re- demption for unused tickets. Arrange- ments for the tea garden were prac- tically completed and this feature prom- ises to be as prominent as ever before. Mrs. Wilson has agreed to open the show by pressing an electric button in Washington and also is willing to name any new flowers at the show. There is to "be a Governor 's day, if it is possible to arrange for the presence of Governor Smith. A change in the schedule has been decided upon, separating the inter- ests of commercial growers and private growers in the classes covering bulb displavs and rose gardens. Chairman Kessler brought to the attention of the meeting the fact that the rules prohibit- ing the transaction of business on the exhibition floors by otlier than trade ex- hibitors will be strictly enforced. Chairman H. O. May, of the exhibits committee, reported that while condi- tions had prevented the staging of any elaborate exhibition that evening, the committee had done the best possible, setting up a good table of carnations. The next meeting night, March 8, will be Rose night, he said. Sdscellaiieous Matters. The following were elected to mem- bership in the club: William H. John- ston, 131 East Twenty-sixth street; F. M. Pennock, San Juan, Porto Rico; Dwight M. Hills, 205 West street; H. B. Marinelli, Montvale, N. J.; Fred W. Payne, Grand Central Palace; Philip Haas, College Point, N. Y.; Earl S. Shaw, Riverdale, N. Y. Mr. Marinelli was present and was formally introduced to the members. Sam Seligman, recently elected, was also formally introduced and offered to do- nate a substantial prize for competition by members if arrangement could be made for a class. Secretary Young stated that the flower show committee is disappointed in the support being given the show by retail florists, inti- mating that, so far, Max Schling is the only one taking part in the exhibition. The following were nominated for election at the next meeting: Charles Moles, 321 Sixth avenue. New York; Alfred Campbell, 1510 Sansom street, Philadelphia; Samuel Salzberg, 114 West Twenty-eighth street. New York; A. T. Kohlmann, Tompkinsville, L. I., N. Y.; Leo Loewenthal, 3830 Broadway, New York; Richard Gerling, Irvington, N. Y.; Anthony Ruzicka, Chatham, N. J., and Charles Schultheis, College Point, N. Y. Secretary Young presented his report for 1919, which showed the affairs of the club to be in excellent shape. The roll of membership included 562 mem- bers. Elections for the year covered fifty-five, and there had been five deaths. The president was directed to appoint a committee to prepare resolutions on the death of George T. Schuneman. A. L. Miller, president of the S. A. F., spoke of the work done at the recent meeting oi the executive board of the society in Cleveland. The heavy damage and loss sustained by the proprietors of the iFlorex Gardens, North Wales, Pa., was re- ported and, on motion of Wallace R. Pierson, the secretary was directed to send a letter to the owners, expressing the club's deepest sympathy with them in their great loss. It was ordered that a basket of fruit be sent to President Henshaw, with the best wishes of the club for his speedy recovery; and a basket of flowers was directed to be sent to Mrs. Knight, who is in a hospital at Babylon, L. I. The secretary announced the en- forced absence of Jos. A. Manda and F. R. Pierson from the meeting, they being in attendance before the Federal Hor- ticultural Board, at a hearing arranged for orchid growers, Wallace R. Pierson made a lengthy address covering the recently organized National Growers' Association, in which he emphasized the desirability of all growers taking out membership whose ranges were 5,000 square feet or more in extent. The Exhibits. ' Vases of Carnations Belle Washburn, Pink Delight and White Enchantress, exhibited by Harry O. May, Summit, N. J., were awarded a cultural certifi- cate. A vase of a rose pink sport of Carna- tion Enchantress Supreme, exhibited by Lecluse & Lecluse, Blue Point, N. Y., was awarded thanks of the club. The awards committee would like to see the variety again when in better condition. Vases of Carnations Enchantress Su- preme, White Enchantress and Belle Washburn, exhibited by the Springfield Floral Co., Springfield, N. J., were awarded a cultural certificate. J. H. P.

After a gallant struggle for life, William Berger died at his home, 238 Queen street, Germantown, Philadel- phia, at 5 o'clock on the morning of February 5. He was in his seventy- third year. Mr. Berger went to the Samaritan hospital for an operation just before Christmas. He rallied splendidly from the shock. His general health was so good that his physicians and family entertained bright hopes of his recovery, but later he lost ground, de- spite everything that devotion and medi- cal skill could do. His loss is keenly felt by all who knew him. William Berger was born in Germany July 28, 1847. When a lad of 16 years he entered the Royal Gardens to study botany. Three years later, in 1866, he came to this country, making his home at 238 Queen street, then called Indian Queen lane, in Germantown. He started in business selling fruit, with plants and flowers as a side line. The side line soon developed. He put up greenhouses on land in the rear of his home and gradually built up a thriving florists' business. He was a good grower, fre- quently exhibiting his plants and flowers at the local shows. About 1888 he opened a small store on Chelten avenue, placing his son, Fred, in charge and supplying it with stock from his own range and from those of other growers. This move proved so successful that Mr. Berger soon moved to larger quar- ters on Germantown avenue, just around the corner. A few years later he be- came the recognized leading florist of Germantown, being consulted on all important occasions by the leading peo- ple of the large suburb. This was a great step forward from the old days, when the business came through the caterer. Mr. Berger then purchased a fine property at 5522 Germantown avenue, in what is admitted to be the best business block in Germantown. He moved his Queen street greenhouses to the rear of his handsome store and five years ago retired from the business, turning it over to his sons. He was too active a man to be idle and kept up his interest in the greenhouse crops and in all that pertained to the business. William Berger was of a genial dis- position, happy and cheerful, friendly with all, a man of the highest integrity, upright in all his dealings. Mr. Berger is survived by a widow, three daughters, Anna, Clara and Ida, all married, and seven sons, William, •Tr., Fred, Harry, Louis, John, Charles and Edward. The first four are married. Six of the seven are florists. Funeral services wore hold Monday morning, February 9, whon ho was laid to rest amid many beautiful flowers. Phil. Mrs. Mary Jane Glass. Mrs. Mary .Tano Glass, wife of .Tames Glass, died at her homo on Erdman ave- nue, Baltimore, Md., Sunday, Febru- ary 8. Mrs. Glass was born in tlio north part of Ireland and canio to this country with her husband about forty years ago. They engaged in the florists' )>usiness - '''"-'N';^ f William Berger, St. and by hard work and earnestness it grew to be one of the best in Baltimore. Mr. Glass attributed the success of the business to the untiring efforts of his wife. She was well known by everyone connected with the trade. Besides her husband, there are three children who survive her, Mary, Ella and James, Jr. The funeral was held Wednesday, February 11, and she was buried at the Baltimore cemetery. Ohio C. Barber. Ohio C. Barber, best known as the millionaire match king, of Barberton, 0., died at the age of 79 at his Anna Dean farm, at Barberton, Wednesday, February 4. Mr. Barber was the owner of one of the largest greenhouse ranges in the country, having many acres under glass. Mr. Barber was born at Middleburg, 0., April 20, 1841. In 1856, after a common school education in Akron, O., he entered his father's match factory, at Middleburg, and was taken into partnership in 1861. His genius for organization, foresight and indefatigable labor asserted itself immediately and in 1881 he formed the Diamond Match Co., which absorbed a number of firms engaged in the same business. Ten years later he laid out the town of Barberton, named after him- self, and gave employment to thousands of persons in the surrounding territory. The town now has a population of 22,- 000. Mr. Barber interested himself in scien- tific farming. He took over a tract of 1,300 acres near Barberton and turned it into what was known as the "model" farm or the Anna Dean farm. On it he erected a palatial home and spent most of his time there. In 1919 he erected his greenhouses according to ideas obtained from several visits to the Guernsey islands, where there is a great growing industry under glass. The Western Reserve University, of Cleve- land, will have the place for experimen- tal purposes under the provisions of his will. The farm is valued at $4,000,000. Mr. Barber was married twice, the first time in 1866. His first wife died some years later. He married his pri- vate secretary three years ago and she has virtually managed his interests since that time. Joseph Sylvester. Josepli Sylvester, proprietor of the Oconto Greenhouse, at Oconto, Wis., for over twenty-five years, died Sunday morning, Fobruarv 1, at Oconto county hospital, where ho had boon receiving treatment for about a week. He had reached the .ago of 68 years, having been liorn in Longshiro, England, in 18.12. Ho is survived by his widow, Susanna; three daughters, Mrs. George Temple, of Oconto Falls; Grace and Olive Syl- vester, at home, and two sons, James and Roland, at home. Mrs. Anna Taylor Stokes. Mrs. .\nna Taylor Stokes, widow of Walter P. Stokes, of Moorestown, N. J., died suddenly Friday, February 6. Since the death of her husband, Mrs. Stokes had boon conducting his Flora- croft greenhouses, with the assistance of Edward Ross and Thomas Potts. 38 The Florists' Review Fdbrdabt 12, 1920 A Established, 1897. by d.

Send The Beview a clipping of the St. Valentine's day ad which you found pro- ductive of results. If a florist finds collections slow, it probably is because he has no system of reminding debtors when money is due. "The voice with the smile wins" is increasingly appropriate as the share of business done over the florist's telephone becomes greater. Enebobtic growers are working op large stocks of plants for Easter and spring. There will be good sale for all the trade can produce. How would you be fixed for fuel if a general strike should tie up the railroads shortly after the government returns them to private management? In 1918 it was figured that the Amer- ican people were spending, on the aver- age, about 50 cents per head per year for flowers. Now it is perhaps $1. Heavier snowfall than has been expe- rienced in many years tied up traffic along the Atlantic coast last week, hampering business to an unprecedented degree. A READER fears the public will pass up flowers, because of prevalent prices, in favor of candy. Wonder if that florist thinks candy still sells at old-time prices f Numerous instances have been re- ported, during the last few days, of rail- roads confiscating florists' coal. Is it in preparation for something the railroad managers expect to happen soonf Present conditions, while they encour- age those now in the trade to increase capacity, do not tend to induce new people to enter the business, either as growers or retailers. It takes more cap- ital to make a start at growing and good retail locations are scarce at high rentals. Present-day wages are better than a business venture. Frequently The Review is taken to task as favoring quarantines. How foolish! They must hurt the newspaper for years and years. But why waste energy in vain protest! Today one might as well buck organized labor as fight the autocrats who run our government bu- reaus. Some dav reason will rule again. Better bide our tinMi Smiles are exceptionally necessary in a florist's shop. Flowers and a grouch do not go well together, and the latter will never sell the former. * ' Why advertise when stock is scarce! ' ' ask those not yet converted to the trade 's publicity campaign. "The time to dig bait," replies a wise man, "is before you go fishing." The man who has his spring bedding stock ready early will catch the fattest orders. Production will be much larger than last year, but many growers will be late because of laek of help. No one can point out either grower or retailer who has "got rich quick" in the last two years. High prices for flowers, unwelcome as they may be to customers, are an economic necessity if the trade is to exist. SHORTAGE OF EASTER STOCK. Easter is scarcely more than seven weeks away. Florists have had little time for thought of the nearness of this big day. Just now they are doing all the business they are able to do with the available stock. How they are going to do more the first Sunday in April depends entirely upon the supply of plants they are able to get. The size of this will not be so great as in former years, many think. Fewer lilies were planted this season than before. Every one of them will be sold at high prices. Rambler roses are expected to be few. The early date shortens the time to prepare other kinds of stock. The present demand for flowers is some of it being diverted to pot plants by the retailers in their efforts to hold cus- tomers; this decreases the quantity available for later use. So conditions altogether point to a decided shortage for Easter. Every florist who by any means is able to add to his supply and the trade's supply for this day wrill be amply rewarded by the size of the re- turns. DEItATED DELIVERY. Few publications, if any, feel the necessity of each week 's issue reaching the readers as quickly as possible more than The Review and none makes greater efforts to accomplish this desid- eratum. At the present time the ob- stacles are many. The deplorable con- ditions of the postal service in general form one handicap. To these are added just now weather delays of trains, sick- ness of postal employees from the epi- demic of flu, the enormous size of the mails in this period of lavish adver- tising and other temporary vexations. By persistent vigilance The Beview is able to make certain that all copies depart by train from Chicago by Thurs- day night each week. So much can be done by being "on the ground." Proper dispatch at the postoffice of destination is not so easy to secure, regardless of efforts made from The Review oflice. The subscriber, being "on the ground" at that end, may accomplish a good deal, perhaps, if he tries. The receipt of a copy at his store sooner than at his greenhouses is sure indication that the delay in delivery is in his own post- office, since both copies arrive there in the same mailbag. In such circum- stances an inquiry of the local post- master is likely to result in prompter delivery, or an explanation that will give the subscriber an understanding of conditions and an assurance of when he can expect better. So if you do not receive The Review as soon as you think you should, ask your mailman about it. The chances are that, despite present handicaps, you can get prompter de- livery that way. SAME ON THE OTHER SIDE. The scarcity and high prices of flowers is not a locals not even a national condition. From England comes the following statement of the market on that side of the water: "Never were such prices obtained for flowers as during this season. This is to some extent due to the shortage caused by the frost. Though the high prices may entice growers to increase their culture and flowers become more plentiful, we shall never have prices as low as they have been in the years gone by. We have nothing to fear from foreign competition. Every expense connected with the business has in- creased three or four-fold, pots, manure, mold, labor, glass and repairs to houses. Taking this into consideration, growers will be wise to produce first-rate flowers rather than larger quantities of them of third and fourth-rate quality." BRIEF ANSWERS. G. & G., Pa. — Greenhouses running east and west receive a greater amount of sunlight than those running north and south. It is the reason for the practically invariable choice of east and west houses where no other condition controls. C. T. M., O.— You should make Easter. See article page 34, issue of February 5. M. J. W., Ind. — It does not pay to try to perpetuate one's stock of freesias; throw the old bulbs away and buy fresh for forcing. B. F. C, Id. — As students of genetics do not approve the mating of defectives, neither do thoughtful growers propa- gate from defective plants, which bars blind wood. WHY THE REVIEW IS GROWING. The growth of The Review this season has been so rapid that it has been neces- sary practically to discontinue all solici- tation and center effort on taking care of the business now coming in unprece- dented volume as the result of many years of ceaseless endeavor to give the trade as much as possible for its money. Large as is the circulation of The Re- view, the subscription list recently has been growing faster than for several years. The increase in the extreme east, where there was some falling off during the war, has been especially notable. It has been the result of florists saying to each other, "You are missing something if you don't get The Review; it's worth more to me than the $1.50 it costs for a year. ' ' And of course trade conditions are such that advertisers who make direct offers get really remarkable re- sults. Here is a novel way of putting it: The telefcmms commpnced soon after The R/»- vlew left Chicago and have kept comlnjf as the mail distributed the paper on the road to the ends of the country. The latest Just now are from the southwest and far east. If you sent The Review out in relays, a few each day. maybe we would he able to keep np with the orders. — S. M. Harbison, Danville, Ky., February 1, 1920. If you hear a man complain of the cost of advertising you can bo pretty certain he spends a good bit of money elsewhere than in The Review. Fbbbdaut 12, 1920 The Florists^ Review 39 [See also page 37.] Samuel Cape. Samuel Cape died early Saturday morning, January 31, at St. Margaret's hospital, Fittsburghj Pa., after a serious illness of only two days. Pneumonia had developed from a severe cold. Mr. Cape had just passed his thirty- fourth birthday, having been born Janu- ary 22, 1886, at Mount Washington. He entered the trade as an errand boy for Mrs. E. A. Williams, when she was lo- cated on the south side; later he went into the employ of the A. W. Smith Co. and then to the employ of Lincoln I. Nefif, whose branch store at 4010 Butler street, in the Lawrenceville district, Mr. Cape later purchased in order to have a business of his own. Steady growth forced his business to move to a larger store at the corner of Fisk and Butler streets, and at the beginning of this year he purchased the yet larger building just opposite. Mr. Cape was an Episcopalian and a member of the Pittsburgh Florists' and Gardeners ' Club and of the Masonic or- der, lodge 484, The funeral services were held Tuesday afternoon, February 3, at 7043 Frankston avenue, the home of his sister, Mrs. Ellen C. Logue. Mr. Cape, who was unmarried, is survived by three sisters and three brothers: Mrs. Ellen C. Logue, Mrs. Laura C. Greena- myer, of Salem, O.; Mrs. Olive C. Sny- der, Joseph Cape and Frederick Chester Cape, of Pittsburgh, and John H. Cape, of Dunkirk, N. Y. Another sister and a niece died in the flu epidemic of a year ago at Woodlawn, where Mr. Cape's greenhouses are located. They were the wife and daughter of the superintendent of the range. E. E. S. Albert M. Boop. Albert M. Boop, Mingo Junction, O., died at his home on Grand View avenue, Wednesday, February 4, at the age of 60 years. Mr. Boop was born at Harlem Springs, O., October 13, 1859. He lived for a time in Bloomfield, O., and for the last twenty-five years had been a resident of Mingo Junction. He is survived by his wife. Sarah Olive Boop, and six children. F. A. Haenselman. F. A. Haenselman died at his home at Boulder, Colo., February ."5, at the age of 59 years. He had been in poor health for a number of years and had been con- tinuously failing. Mr. Haenselman was born in Stutt- gart, Germany, September 11, 1861. He started his florist career in the Royal Palace gardens at Stuttgart. He came to this country at the age of 19 and worked in various stores and green- houses in Chicago, St. Louis, Mo., Louisville, Ky., and Denver, Colo. In Denver he started in the business known as Chapman & Haenselman, five years later buying Mr. Chapman's interest and running the business alone, until he lost everything by fire, in 1896. He was then appointed landscape architect for the city of Denver in the park de- partment. He held this position until 1903, when he took charge of the Canon Floral Co. greenhouses at Lafayette, Colo. A year later he started the pres- Samuel Cape. ent business, known as F. A. Haensel- man's U. of C. Flower Shop and Boulder Greenhouse. In 1908 his health started to fail and he grew steadily worse until the end, but although he was so crippled for twelve years that he could not walk without crutches, he kept doggedly working and actively managing the business. He was a member of Boulder lodge No. 566, B. P. O. E.. the W. O. W. and the Masonic fraternity. He is survived by his wife, Carrie Ida, and three children, Minnie, Carl and Florence. He was buried from the Elks ' home in Elks' Rest at Green Mountain cemetery, Sunday, February 8. The business is to be carried on by his son, Carl F. Haenselman. Raymond E. Cooper. Raymond E. Cooper, Cohoes, N. Y., died Friday, February 6, at the Cohoes hospital, as a result of the setting in of pneumonia when he had an attack of influenza which he contracted when at- tending the funeral of his mother in Poughkeepsie two weeks ago. He was M years of age at the time of his death. Mr. Cooper was known by everyone in the trade around Cohoes. He had a genial disposition and understood his work and that of the men under him, :ind therefore was a most capable su- perintendent. He came to Cohoes as an employee of Ansel D. Carpenter ten years ago and grew up with the firm. He was a member of the Albany Flo- rists' Club, Cohoes lodge No. 116, A. F. & A. M., Cohoes chapter R. A. M. and St. John's church. He is survived by his wife, three brothers, a sister and his father, L. H. Cooper, of Poughkeepsie, N, Y. The funeral service was held Monday, February 9, at his home. Rev. Ernest J. Hopper officiating, as well as the Ma- sonic funeral service. The burial was Tuesdav, February 10, at Poughkeepsie, N. Y. CHICAOO. The Market. In spite of a considerable increase in the supply of flowers available, the mar- ket has stiffened still further this week. Nothing like the present condition ever has been known. Ordinarily at this time of year flowers are abundant, in comparison with the demand, and every- body is pushing for sales. This year the supply probably is as large as it ever was at this date, but the demand is so much greater than normal that any wholesaler will tell you he would have no trouble in selling twice as many flowers. Of course, if everyone had twice the present supply, that would be a different story, but there is no doubt that from twenty-five to fifty per cent more flowers could be sold close to pres- ent prices if good stock were available. For the last two or three weeks there have been predictions that a change was approaching, but the only change thus far apparent is a further increase in the demand and a gradual advance in prices. Everyone who reduces a price finds him- self on the wrong side of the market. The St, Valentine's day demand was just beginning to be felt when this issue of The Review went to press, but it was apparent that the call for flowers will be greater in the closing days of the pres- ent week than it has been at any time since Christmas. There seems to be no limit to the retailers' ability to sell flowers. Their business is limited only by their ability to obtain stock. Occa- sionally a buyer says he will have to stay off some item until the price comes down, but in a general way prices have ceased to be a consideration. The buy- ers appear to have become accustomed to the present values and they pay the price without protest. The result is a wonderful total of sales for the whole- salers and big checks for the growers.

But this season the demand is so much greater than ever before at this time of year, it still is impossible to fill orders in full— and there is no question of price. Freesia Is Plentiful and the already large supply of Spring Flowers, Roses and Carnations is sure to be greatly increased within the next few days. We expect very soon to be filling all orders in full, even if the present abnormal demand continues. ^ r^ 'P T p* TT While prices necessarily are high under present conditions, buyers of Cut Flowers should note that our supply is of the highest quality, and that the prices of the Chicago Flower Growers' Association never are higher than others charge, IF THEY FILL YOUR ORDER, regardless of the quality of their stock.

There are many veet peas. upply of double violets has been I by the big snow storm in the i wires from Ehinebeck say the St. Valentine's day supply will be re- duced. Stevia is about gone. There is some fine mignonette and a fair supply of calendulas. Till' rose situation shows little change. The call for short roses is so large only ;i fraction of the demand can be met and buyers must take longer stock or go without. Some growers report an increase in cuts, but others say weather conditions are holding their crops back. There are few Beauties. The supply of carnations is increasing, but the price is advancing; the call has proved stronger than anyone expected. One of the notable features of the market has been the quantity of miscel- laneous stock drawn from outside sources. Quantities of material are coming from California. Of principal importance is the heather. It has been seen in nearly all the wholesale houses this week, but some of them have found it unprofitable and have stopped the shipments. Acacia has come in mod- erate quantity. Shipments of Paper Whites from the coast usually have proved disappointing. Some of the free- sia has come through in good shape, but much of it has been lost. Woodwardia fronds sell well where big, coarse mate- rial can be used. Some asparagus also is coming from California. Huckleberry and mahonia foliage also are seen. A casual visitor at the market is like- ly to get a false impression as to the quantity of flowers being handled. While little stock is seen, large quanti- ties are coming in. With a normal business, meaning a demand such as was usual at this time of year prior to our entry into the war, we should now have a heavily stocked market. Get Busy, Boys!

Peacock's Flower Shop is boosting the telegraph delivery service on its Valentine's day mailing card. It says: "Send a Valentine flowergram to a friend or relative anywhere in the United States or Canada. Merely call at our store or telephone and tell us the amount you wish to spend.

A Time and Money Saver. Compared with trimming pots specially, with papers, mattings and the like, it freely saves flower store workers' time and avoids the cost of high-priced materials.

McGrath, of Tischer & McGrath, New Castle, Pa., was here last week, investigating sources of supply. PHn.ADELPHIA. The Iilarket. The first week in February was marked by an even greater scarcity of flowers than the weeks that preceded it. Monday and Tuesday brought an increased supply, but by Tuesday night the market had absorbed it all. Then came the worst snow storm of the sea- son, lasting three days and three nights, cutting down the supply. Usually in such a storm the demand disappears. This time it kept up. Saturday brought bright weather, more flowers and an active demand that took everything and could easily have taken much more, even at the prevailing high prices. The wholesalers are much upset at the situation. Try as they will, they cannot begin to fill their orders. Such expedients as filling one-half or two- thirds of the order, shipping or deliv- ering every other day and arranging to send so many dollars' worth of what- ever they can gather together, are re- sorted to in a vain effort to make the stock go around. Sweet peas are more plentiful. There are more daffodils, plenty of freesias, some violets, a fair sprinkling of cat- tleyas and a little myosotis. The sup- ply of roses and carnations is about the same. There is nearly enough aspara- gus sprays, but not enough ferns. A Propagating House. There is a propagating house of much more than ordinary interest at this moment. It is at Chestnut Hill on the place of Myers & Samtman. The house is, at a guess, 12x150 feet. It contains two wide propagating beds. These beds are entirely filled with what appear to be nicely rooted cuttings of three aris- BERGER BROS.

The quantity, the varieties and the success of the propagation make the house remarkable. The difficulty of rooting Beauties with certainty is well known. The places, outside of Rich- mond, Ind., that can put in such vast quantities of Premier, are rare. Co- lumbia is less numerous. Of course, this large propagation is not for the place, big as it is. It is for selling in small pots. So great is the demand for small plants of these three varieties that flowering wood is being sacrificed, and a house of rosps has been thrown out to produce the stock, and this by a firm preeminently cut flower growers. Prac- tically all the stock above that needed for their own replanting has been grown on orders and enough has been ordered to tax their capacity for four months to come.

He has proba- bly done more than any other grower to make floriculture remunerative. He knows when flowers are needed in some great center and is able to place them there in great numbers at exactly the right moment. This has happened time and time again. Flowers would be needed somewhere. The town and the retailer matter not. The regular source of supply would be inadequate. A wholesaler in the nearest big city would telegraph or call up Mr. Myers on the long distance telephone and the want would be filled. Martin Samtman is a genius in the growing of roses for cut flowers under glass. He knows by instinct what they need and when to give it. He never wastes his efforts on things that don't count.

The brief telegram describing the ex- hibits staged at the Florists' Club in the Adelphia on the evening of February 3 did not do justice to the really beau- tiful table of Primula malacoides. They were staged by Clarence U. Liggit for Harry K. Rohrer, of Lancaster. The plants were shown in valentine baskets. They were exceedingly well grown, mak- ing a display that was both novel and attractive. This variety of primula is a specialty with Mr. Rohrer, this par- ticular stock being named after him — Primula malacoides Rohrerii. Mr. Lig- git prefers it to obconica. It is charm- ing and it does not poison anybody. He has many of them ordered for valen- tines. A Disaster. It is with deep regret that another disaster is recorded. It also is due to the snow storm. The twin houses of Joseph Beavis & Son, on Limekiln pike near Haines street, collapsed with the weight of the snow at 5 o'clock on the morning of February 5. The houses are ridge-and-furrow with a gutter be- tween. The snow piled up in the gut- ter until the weight became too great. One house went in. The stock was frozen. The other house was boarded up.

The Market. Buried beneath nearly two feet of snow and ice on the level, with numer- ous drifts from eight to twenty feet deep, Rhodo Island 's business has been almost at a standstill during last w^eek. With trains, trolleys and other means of transportation tied up, passenger service as well as freight has been sus- pended. It has been the worst visita- tion of winter weather experienced here since the historic blizzard of 1888. This statement of the conditions ex- y)lains the entire business situation. There has been a demand slightly above normal because of the increase in the number of deaths from influenza, but the florists have been unable to fill orders, for in a majority of instances where they could procure flowers, it has been impossible to deliver them. One downtown store had orders for more than $150 worth of flowers for one funeral in a suburban section, but could not deliver them. Various Notes. A fire which broke out in the cellar of Vose 's Flower Shop, in Woonsocket, R. I., early Saturday morning, February 7, caused a loss of $1,000 to that con- cern. The store is owned by Herman Dolbeck and Stanley Kaczor and their entire stock and many of their fixtures were destroyed.

THE RIBBON HOUSE ScHLoss Bros., Ribbons, inc. 31 and 33 East 28th Street, NEW YORK HEADQUARTERS For Florists' Ribbons, Chiffons and Novelties NEWAEK, N. J. Tlie Market. Potted tulips, jonquils, daffodila and other spring flowers are beginning to arrive at the local market in somewhat larger quantities. The prices are high for this season of the year. The crop this year is fair as to volume, but it is not up to normal, due to the fact that growers have not been able to care for as many plants this year as usual. The quality of the flowers arriving on the market now is good. On account of the influenza epidemic, there has been much funeral work the last few weeks. The storm crippled trade for a few days. Various Notes. Charles Luthy, 363 Springfield avenue, reports that there has been much fu- neral work of late and that he has had a large number of midwinter weddings to provide flowers for. The cut flower trade is rather slow. Connelly & Plunket, 149 Bloomfield avenue, report business good. The heavy snow storm crippled business for several days. At the branch store, 20 Belmont avenue, a number of weddings have added to the volume of business. Announcement has been made of the wedding, at Montreal, February 7, of Miss Emma Wilkinson, of Elizabeth, N. .1., and William Flemer, Jr., of Prince- ton, N. J., formerly of Springfield, N. J. The wedding took place at the home of an uncle and aunt of the bride, her jiarents being dead. Mr. Flemer 's pa- rents were at the wedding. After their wedding trip Mr. and Mrs. Flemer will reside at Princeton, where Mr. Flemer is manager of tlie F. & F. Nurseries, owned by his father. The bridegroom served in the ambulance corps overseas for more than two years diiring the war, and received the French war cross. E. B. M. SOFT CAIiENDULAS.

By ordering now, florists in all sec- tions where winter has prevented open- ing of the ground can have billboard signs at hand ready for installation when conditions permit. The billboard is a wonderful help in the publicity movement and is an ornament of no mean order to a florist's establishment, no matter how it is used, and it flashes the message, "Say It wdth Flowers," as nothing else can. The sign is fur- nished to anyone who has an opportunity to make an installation, at the exact cost, $50, to our publicity committee, a cost which is about half that of a simi- lar sign ordered by an individual. Ship- ment is made direct from the factory, in Indiana, and freight charges are prepaid. Orders should be sent to the secretary, accompanied by a check for the cost and instructions as to best route to destination, with name of rail- road station. Clubs and other organiza- tions would do well to take up the mat- ter of obtaining pledges for installa- tions of billboards, as a liberal display of them in their communities would be of great service to our industry and help to perpetuate the message of the slogan. We have already noted what has been done by a few prominent or- ganizations in this direction. More Subscribers Wanted. Our publicity committee is just now in urgent need of further support in the way of funds for a better continu- ance of the campaign. At present, they are dependent upon the funds pledged by those liberal-minded florists who have lent a hearty support to our pro- ject since its beginning and expansion, but with the funds thus forthcoming we are only able to mark time and pre- vent the benefit already promoted from fading away. Without the slightest doubt we can double this benefit by ex- tending our effort, and this, of course, means the expenditure of more money, which must be collected from those whose interests it is to serve.

If aU florists were to base subseriptions on even a small percentage of their increased busi- ness since the opening of the campaign and would voluntarily send them in to the secretary, our committee would not now have to make an appeal, for funds would be ample. But thousands of otherwise astute florists are hanging back, content to let others of their brethren shoulder the expense of this, the greatest and most beneficial move- ment ever promulgated in the trade, or in other trades. Unlike other trade slogans, "Say It with Flowers" con- veys a message so widely appreciated that perhaps only one class of people is unaffected by it and that class has our sympathy and gratuitous service when in need of flowers — the poor and desti- tute. Arouse yourself, then, Mr. Nonsub- seriber. Help us to help you to still further increase your business by in^ creasing the demand for your products. You should believe in this campaign as ?ou do in your religion, and support it. ou share in the benefit resulting, so why not in the expense of conducting itf If you think the matter over at all seriously, you will, afterward, send a check to the secretary for an amount which your conscience dictates you should send. John Young, Sec 'y. ST. LOUIS, MO. The Market. The wholesale market conditions last week brought many worries upon the commission men and the retailers. The great shortage of stock caused business to suffer considerably. Many of the retailers resorted to the use of artificial flowers to make up much of their work and many orders for fresh flower de- signs had to be turned down. The weather has been fine and it is hard to understand the big shortage, when usually at this time of the year there is plenty of everything and prices are low. The market cleared early every day. Many of the local growers came in only every two days instead of daily as they used to do. Carnations played a big part during the week. The cuts were good, but the great demand for them caused the price to advance to $25 per huddred for the extra fancies, while the bulk of them brought $20. These prices mark a record in this market for carnations. Boses advanaed in price, as not many of them came in at any time during the week, and the quality was not good. Violets are in good supply and at rea- sonable prices for the best, but an ad- vance is looked for by the end of the week, when the demand will be heavy for St. Valentine's day. In bulbous stock, prices are higher than ever. The supply of freesias, jonquils, tulips, Paper Whites, Romans, valley and callas is not enough for the demand. There is plenty of good heather to be had. Other stock, such as candytuft, mignonette, calendulas, daisies and Looking Back to the Time of Washington Whenever Washington's Birthday approaches. I often think of a delightful summer's ride taken with a horse and buggy some twenty-five years ago. A two weeks' ride'following along the historic points that range from the wonderful old Headauarters at Newburgh, N. Y.. to the delightful one at Morristown. N.J. Among the most interesting of all was the old mine and ruins of the blast lurnace where was dug and smelted the iron for the chain that stretched across the Hudson. A chain with hngellinks half your height and length, that protected Washington's Headquarters from the approach of British men of war. Some of the links are still there for'you to look at and ponder about. When I think of those links, they always stand for the unbroken strength of the links of this Govern- ment of ours. Links which Washington really fashioned. Links that neither outward nor inward foes ha\e been able to break. With the recent round -up of the reds still in mind, this thought is one of reassurance and inspiration. Washington's Birthday should, this year, mean more than ever to us. Its floral messages carry an expression of content- ment and security. New York's Favorite Flower Shop F^th Avenue at 58th Street snapdragons, shares with the others in price and demand. Spencer sweet peas are all sold before they come in and are placed on orders on arrival at top prices of $6 per hundred. All greens sell at sight, especially asparagus, galax, leucothoe and adiantum. Growers' Meeting. The St. Louis County Growers* Asso- ciation held an interesting meeting Wednesday, February 4, at the Eleven Mile House. There was plenty of inter- esting matter up for discussion. The formation of the national growers' as- sociation at Chicago, January 22, was discussed and approved of as a help to the grower. It was decided to change the membership rules so as not to con- fine eligibility to the county alone, but The Florists^ Review Febuuakv 12, 1020 The flortsts whose card* appear on the paces oamrlnc this hecMl. are prepared to 1111 orders . from other florists for local delivery on the luiiial basis.

Member of the Florists' Telegraph Delivery Association Andrew Ilofifinan and Albert Gumz aro again attending to business after sick- ness. Frank A. Windier, vice-president of the Missouri State Florists' Association, is making an effort to have the associa- tion hold a meeting in St. Louis, May lo and 16, during the progress of the spring flower show. The St. Louis florists are enthusiastic about this and say tliat it would be a fitting time to hold the meeting and transact much de- layed business, especially the election of officers, as there has been no meeting since its organization three years ago. L. A. Archias, Sedalia, Mo., reports a fine increase in membership since last August and no doubt this meeting in May would attract a large attendance. Those in charge of the preliminaries of the spring flower show, to be held at the St. Louis Garden Club, met Feb- ruary 6 at the University Club and pre- pared a program and premium list. The show is to be held May 15 and 16. Those who attended the meeting were Her- man Von Schrenk, Dr. George T. Moore, Kansas City, Mo. MEMBER F. T. D. 1106 GRAND AVENUE Kansas City, Mo.

The January issue of the Missouri Botanical Garden Bulletin announces some new titles: Oeorge H. Pring is now horticulturist, L. P. Jensen is ar- boriculturist and Paul A. Eohl is flori- culturist. John Noyes also was named landscape designer. At the meeting of the Florists' Bowl- ing League, Wednesday, February 4, the Daisies continued their advance in the race by defeating the strong Carna- tion team in two of the three games played. The Eoses increased their lead to six games by winning two of their three games from the Sweet Peas. The Daisies and Sweet Peas are now tied for the last place. J. J. B. KANSAS OITY, MO. The Market The problem of flower supply seems to have about reached the point where it cannot get any worse. It has been working to this point for about six weeks. For the last two weeks the de- mand has been growing daily, with no improvement in any crop save that of sweet peas, and this only a slight im- provement, as the weather has not con- tinued bright for a long enough period to bring out the peas in any great quantity.

VOLZ FLORAL CO. week helped to keep back blooms. An epidemic of influenza, worse than that of a year ago last fall, has caused an abnormal demand for flowers of all kinds and everything else has given way to a rush of funeral and hospital work. With an unprecedented shortage of stock that would be felt under normal conditions, it is difficult to take care of orders that pile up daily. The whole- salers meet less than half of the calls for stock. The retailers manage, by economy, ingenuity and rare good luck, to get by, wondering at the close of each day how they did it and how they will manage the next. It is a trying time for wholesalers when florists in all parts of the country are writing, wiring, calling by long dis- tance telephone for flowers at any price. to have to turn them down for want oi stock. They all do it time after time each day. What stock there is goes to regular customers flrst and this has to be apportioned so that everybody geta a little. No one can say he is being badly treated by the wholesalers. Prices are higher than a week ago, with roses at from $15 to $30; oamft* tions, $15; freesias, $8; sweet peas, from $1.50 to $4, and California violets, $8 per dozen bunches. The roses comprisa Ophelia, Shawyer, Bussell and Colum- bia. Carnations were never so high at this time of ye?tr. The last few ship- ments of violet^ have not been up to standard, owing to poor packing. Variotia Notes. Samuel Murray is showing his first white lilac plants of the season. He has some fine cyclamen from growers and babj primroses from his own greens houses. These have been used for fu- neral orders and he has sold a good many baskets for funerals. Bay Blessing, of T. J. Noll ft Co., says he could sell five times the quantity of flowers he receives every day.

There are thousands of buds hanging on the plants, but they do not develop and there isn't anything to take their place. I havo been in the business fifteen years and I have never seen such a scarcity of flowers or such a price as $15 per hundred for carnations at this season of the year.

So far this month we have had only two bright days and in January we had only six bright days. This is beyond doubt the reason why the roses, carnations and lilies do not open any faster. A few bright days will increase the supply lierc considerably. The weather has not been severely cold, but stays around the freezing point a good part of the time. We have been for- tunate in not having much snow. The flu is taking a number of people. Tlie death rate is as high as it was a year ago last fall. Various Notes.

Karl Zeidler reports plenty of busi- ness but no flowers. Mrs. J. C. Elspermann is rushed with work and has to buy heavily from Chi- cago at higher prices than she ever paid before. Henry Seymour says he is turning down a number of orders. His stock is good, but the carnations do not open fast. He has added a few roses and will get a good spring and summer cut. The William Blackman Floral Co. re- ports no rest since before Christmas. This firm is sending out an immense lot of funeral work and a large number of potted plants. Its cut of roses and carnations is good, but short of the de- mand. The cut of freesias, sweet peas, calendulas and lilies is good. Walter Blackman was confined to his home last week with an attack of the flu, but is now back on the job. V 'Mam Blackman, who for fifteen years nas been unable to walk, felt re- turning strength to his body and legs about ten days ago and the doctor, who was attending him in a spell of sickness, told him that he could walk and to try it. He did, leaning on the arm of his attendant. He walked around the block and is much encouraged. He is 83 years of age and hopes to be able to walk the rest of his life.

These sprays are often much more attractive than the wreaths made up with an insufficient supply of flowers. Various Notes. ^lany travelers for Holland bulbs liave been calling on the Toronto trade and many large orders are reported. No definite information is available as to llie prices. One dealer states that only iiigh-class bulbs arc available and that .■m increase may be expected, while an- other states that Holland is looking .'inxiously for markets for her bulbs, and that we may even look for a drop in ]>rices this year. In any ease, it is evi- dent that quantities of bulbs are avail- able, but it is only conjecture at present as to what the price will be. The Hamilton and Toronto Florists' Clubs have been trying out the exchange of members at their meetings. The first (if these exchanges took place Monday, February 2, when Edward Gale, repre- senting the Toronto Retail Florists' Club, visited the Hamilton Gardeners' and Florists' Association and demon- strated the making of a wreath from mossing to the complete design. He made an exceedingly pretty design of roses, sweet jieas, violets and freesias, a feature being the rajtidity with which he wired the flowers and made up the design. Several florists commented on the liigh-class workmanship and the quickness of turning out this class of work. It is expected that a represent- ative of the Hamilton association will attend the next meeting of tlie Toronto club and give a talk on some phase of The florists' work. Tlie greenhouses of Curl Grobba, at Mimico, are in excellent shape since he h:is taken them under his jiersonal su- iKTvision. His stock of lilv of the val- ley. which lie is now cutting, is the finest he has ever had. He is shipping this and lilac to Chicago, in addition to supjilying his regular customers here. Tlie Ontario Horticultural Association met in Toronto, February 5 and 6. This is an association of amateurs with a membership of over 20,000. Several flo- rists were noticed at the gathering, among them being W. E. Groves, of Hamilton, who was one of the speakers, and A. Gilchrist, of West Toronto. It was announced that there is a movement to secure a plot of ground in some cen- tral place in Ontario to be utilized in horticultural experimental work and trial grounds, and the belief was ex- <^\0'>':-a--A -- o -ci DETROIT AlICH IGAIVJ Orders given best of care by these five F.

Business during the first half of last week was about normal, with no great change in prices. February 5 the worst blizzard which New England had ex- perienced since the great storm of Nov- ember 26, 1898, almost completely par- alyzed business of every description. The official record gave the snowfall as fifteen and one-half inches, but a fierce northeast gale whirled it into great drifts and transportation of any kind was almost impossible. The Bos- ton elevated and tunnel trains made fairly good time, but surface lines were, in many cases, snowed up entirely and are not yet all in operation. To make matters worse for shippers, few trains were operated on the N. Y., N. H. & H. B. E. February 5, 6 and 7, while but a limited number came in or were sent out over the Boston & Maine and Boston & Albany systems. Wholesalers who had sent boxes down February 5 were or- dered to take them away the following day, as deliveries were out of the ques- tion. The commencement of this weok saw somewhat milder weather and it is hoped that marooned cities, towns and villages will all be reached soon, but additional snow and sleet February 6 and 7 were discouraging features, and more precipitation is promised. Little is to be said of the cut flower market. There were few arrivals Feb- ruary 5, 6 and 7 and buyers were scarce, but prices held about the same, with carnations selling at $10 and $15, and roses showing a weakening tendency. February 9 conditions were nearly nor- mal, although it was still impossible to get shipments to or from a good many points, but the outlook is more en- couraging, and it looks as though St. Valentine's day would see all lines of trafl5c opened unless more snow storms come.

QnoiuiniiiioniiiiniioiiiiiiNuiaiiiiiiiuiiiainiitiniionnBtii and others took part in the discussion, which was long and animated and showed widely divergent views, but was, nevertheless, conducted in a friendly spirit. Daylight saving was unani- mously endorsed by a rising vote.

Tlie greenhouse range of George Mc- Laughlin was destroyed January 26 by a fire, which started at 3:30 in the morning and was discovered by a worker in a near-by railroad yard. The fire had made such headway by the time the firemen arrived that they could only save Mr. McLaughlin's residence. The temperature at that time was 16 degrees below zero and whatever stock the fire did not reach was ruined by the cold. The fire is supposed to have originated in the boiler room. All supplies were destroyed and the total loss is estimated at $12,000; the insurance is $3,000. Mr. McLaughlin plans to rebuild at once. LOUISVILLE. KY. The Market. The last week was a busy one for every retail store in town. Some large funerals took place and greatly di- minished the supply of stock. It is noted, however, that there was some increase in the quantity of the sup- ply, but it is still a hard thing to keep enough stock on hand. Freesias, calendulas and a few snapdragons are helping to fill the shortage, but the two main supports, roses and carnations, are still behind on account of the cloudy weather. Various Notes. The crops look promising at the range of A. Rasmussen, New Albany, Ind., where eight acres are under glass. The carnations will be excellent with a few more bright, sunny days. The roses, which are mainly Columbia, show a healthy, vigorous growth and first-class prospects for a large spring crop. Mr. Rasmussen has six of his houses planted in lettuce and that accounts for a good deal of the shortage of cut flowers on the local market. The Jacob Schulz Co. was busy all hist week. The supply of bulbous stock relieved the situation caused by the demand for funer.nl flowers.

Siebreeht, Jr., has been featuring in his House of Flowers an unusually large specimen of the epiphyllum, or Zygocactus truncatus, sometimes called the crab cactus. LOS ANGEUIS, CAL. The Market. Last week started with a scarcity of field and lath-house grown carnations and this became more marked towards the end, so that growers were asking holiday prices. Light and rose pinks that could be shipped out or used for funeral work were especially short and everything cleaned up daily. Growers of indoor stock also put their prices up and, judging by the appearance of the plants in the field, high prices are likely to continue. Freesias will be arriving in larger quantities by next week and will help the situation somewhat, though nothing takes the place of carnations. Boses are still scarce, but the length- ening days are helping the plants, and growers say they will soon be back to normal production. Daffodils are arriv- ing in good shape and are almost equal to the demand, though doubtless more could be sold if they could be had. Small spring flowers for baskets are selling well and the call is for greater Variety. Orchids are fairly plentiful, but keep up in price. Statice, helichry- sum, rhodanthe and other everlastings have never been in better demand than they are this year; many orders both for shipping and local use have been turned down. Fortunately, greens are fairly plentiful and good. Plumosus is the only kind for which higher prices are asked. Various Notes. The San Fernando Gardens are finding great difficulty in getting sufficient help to finish their new place and the work has been delayed, but the Lamport brothers are both hustlers and comple- tion is in sight. They have a fine loca- tion and good soil about one and a half miles southwest of San Fernando. G. Van Bochove, Kalamazoo, Mich., was a visitor last week. He has not been in the best of health and is trying southern California for a few weeks. At Kudolph Fischer's place, at Santa Anita, Cal., the freesias are a little later than usual, but are coming along in fine shape. Some nice cuts of Purity had been made and also a few of the new colored hybrids and in a few days cutting will be in full swing. Walter Armacost & Co. are handling the entire cut again this season. Mr. Fischer also finds difficulty in finding help and the unusual sight of sprinklers going full blast in January shows how badly rain is needed. Alphonse Soubirou, well known in Los Angeles, has returned from Portland, Ore. He intends to stay only a short time and will return to Portland later. H. E. Eichards. SAN FRANOISOO. Tlie Market. An inadequate rose supply is one of the most serious difficulties now faced by local dealers. With retailers bear- ing the brunt of the complaints in re- gard to the high prices of roses, a com- mittee composed of representatives from the leading retailers of San Francisco called last week at a number of the growers' headquarters in an effort to come to a better understanding in re- gard to present prices. The matter was discussed with due consideration given to both sides of the question, but ap- parently the matter stands pretty much the same as before the conference. Just now, the demand is so far in excess of the supply that it is extremely difficult to regulate prices to any great extent. It is expected that with the arrival of the second crop, which is due within the next few weeks, the law of supply and demand will manifest itself in a gradual decrease in rose prices and thereby eliminate the present difficulties. Shippers in San Francisco report that eastern orders have never been larger. Telegrams from all over the country are coming i^to the local shipping depots with frantic requests for flowers and more flowers, with the shipper in de- spair at his inability to meet the de- mand. Fortunately, the violet crop con- tinues in good volume and spring flowers are fast growing more plenti- ful, thus relieving the cut flower short- age to some extent. Seasonable greens, too, are receiving their share of popu- larity, and quantities of acacia blooms, woodwardia, ferns, etc., are going out of San Francisco for northwestern and eastern distribution. Almond blossoms and flowering peach blooms are seen in limited quantity, while in addition to daffodils, freesias, Chinese lilies, narcissi, etc., there is a limited supply of snowdrops, cut hyacinths and lilies of the valley to be obtained.

This firm reports a large amount of table and basket work in addition to funeral orders, which continue in unusual volume. The decorating for tables, etc., for the real estate men's convention, which was held at the Palace hotel recently, was done by Mrs. Copeland. Spring flowers were used. Mrs. Copeland states that her shop is kept busy with table and funeral work, the only difficulty being the scarcity of stock. Of late the windows of Joseph 's shop, i)n Grant avenue, have been particu- larly appealing with a profusion of spring blooms and several generous orchid displays. The quality of the present crop of orchids is good and enough blooms are now obtainable for a worth-while showing. Daffodils and violets have formed the basis for a number of most attrac- tive window displays made by Podesta & Baldocchi. One day last week the entire floor of one of the windows was carpeted with the bright yellow blooms, a stunning contrast to the colorful basket of spring flowers and violets which oc^pied the center of the window space. Albert F. Amling, of Maywood, 111., was a visitor in San Francisco last week. Another member of the trade who was in this city is Tom Wright, of Wright's Flower Shop, Los Angeles. Geo.

Enough narcissus and tulip bulbs trere grown by the Department of Agriculture to supply the congressional distribution this year. The seed selling season is making an excellent start. The mail order houses are unusually busy, provided their cata- logues are out. The Department of Agriculture in- cluded in its appropriation bill for next year $5,000 for the work of producing American bulbs. The C. S. Osborn Co., Newark, O., is well settled in its new store, where it is selling plants besides conducting its reg- ular seed business. Seed catalogues cost real money this season, and were slow of manufacture, but they will cost still more next autmnn unless all signs fail. A GOOD many seedsmen would gain by going over their mailing lists for dupli- cate names, judging by the fact that The Eeview has received from two to half a dozen copies of numerous 1920 editions. Free seeds for congressmen's constit- uents prevailed in the House of Bepre- sentatives, when a motion to eliminate an appropriation of $239,000 for seed dis- tribution was defeated February 9 by a vote of 130 to 71. NEW IJ^W IN HOLLAND. The representatives of Holland houses now traveling in this country, in many cases have received word of a new lav^r affecting horticultural interests in their country. It appears that at the instiga- tion of the nurserymen's organization the Dutch Chamber has enacted a law prohibiting the shipment of any nursery stock which has not been sold. In other words, it prevents the 'consignment of surplus stock to auction houses. The law is of principal interest in England, because America was closed last Juno to practically everything in the way of nursery stock from HoUand. The new law, as reported to bulb salesmen traveling here, does not include the regulation of the bulb traffic. Prob- ably pressure will be put on, Avith the object of prohibiting the shipment of bulbs to America unless to fill bona fide orders. MISSISSIPPI IfOISLATION. Unreasonable Label Bequirements. House bill 316, filed January 28 by Mr. Gipson in the Mississippi state leg- islature and referred to the House com- mittee on agriculture, is a close copy of the Texas seed law, approved July 28, 1919, with, however, some most tftihappy alterations. The bill affects both agri- cultural and garden seeds. The label required of agricultural seeds is hardly possible because of its indefinite provisions and unreasonable requirements. The label is only required to be attached to field seeds in whole- sale lots, without any definition as to Tested Proven Early View of Oar Trial Groimda Did you ever sow Peacock's Flower Seeds?

Mention The Reylew when you write. what constitutes wholesale lots, con- trary to the well-established principle in these seed laws of limiting the label- ing to amounts of ten pounds or more, a principle found in the Texas law from which this bill is taken. It requires the correct weight in pounds and ounces and the year grown. It seems an un- reasonable duty to state the year when grown, because the Mississippi retailer has no means of ascertaining this fact, as he does not grow the seed himself. The requirement is unnecessary, because the germinating quality of the seed, which this specification is supposed to indicate, is taken care of under the pro- vision requiring the percentage of ger- mination and the date and year when tested. The bill omits the exemption of prosecution on account of labeling as to germination, as provided in the uni- form bill. Two separate provisions require stat- ing the approximate percentage of weed seeds or other foreign matter. This confusion of weed seeds and foreign matter is unfortunate and acts as a dis- tinct disadvantage to the purchaser, because he cannot ascertain from this percentage what are weed seeds and what is foreign matter. The words ' ' or foreign matter" should be stricken out from this provision for this reason and for the further reason that it is com- pletely taken care of by the provision requiring the percentage of purity, which defines purity and expressly re- fers to foreign matter. Practically Prohibits Packets. Section 11 is subject to the most serious objections, for it is so indefinite that it is difficult to understand the meaning of the law. It requires, among other things, that all seeds, whether garden or field seeds, sold in papers or packages, shall show the kind of seed, the year grown, name of the state grown in and approximate percentage of germination, except that this shall not apply to retail merchants who retail seed that is prop- erly labeled. So far as packeted seeds are concerned, this is practically pro- hibitive of their sale, for, under the perfectly proper methods of packeting seeds, it would be impossible to state this information and, moreover, the me- chanical difficulties in the way of such labeling would make it unprofitable to packet seeds for Mississippi customers. As this provision would affect even small 5-cent packets, concerning which there is no complaint and in which the amount of any possible natural deterior- ation is too small to be important, it is fair to ask that these small packets be eliminated from consideration in the law. It is equally reasonable to ask that the entire section be stricken out. TROMP BROS.

At the meeting in. New York of the market development committee of the A. A. N., O. Joe Howard, of Pomona, N. C, was appointed chairman. Plans for carrying on the campaign were formed for the coming year. William Flemer, Jr., manager of the F. & F. Nurseries, at Princeton, N. J., was married February 7 at Montreal to Miss Emma Wilkinson, of Elizabeth, N. J., at the home of the bride's uncle. Mr. Flemer 's parents were at the wed- ding. The law of action and reaction ap- plies to supply and demand of nursery stock. Excess of demand, such as we have now, leads to excess production, when the pendulum reaches the other end of the swing. Market development will counteract that reactionary swing. RHODE ISLANDERS POSTPONE. The second annual convention of the Rhode Island Nurserymen 's Association, in Andrews hall. Providence, was post- poned to Thursday, February 12, just a week later than was originally planned. The postponement was due to the complete tie-up of transportation by the severe storm which has affected the whole Atlantic coast. Charles H. Greaton, of Providence, in addition to delivering the president's address in the morning session, was scheduled to read an interesting paper in the afternoon on "The Standardiza- tion of Prices" and Paul V. Fortmiller, of the Jackson & Perkins Co., Newark, N. Y., to discuss "The Present and Future Demand for Nursery Stock." ILLINOIS ASSOCIATION MEETS. Program in Chicago. The Illinois State Nurserymen's As- sociation held its third annual conven- tion at the Hotel La Salle, Chicago, Wednesday and Thursday, February 11 and 12. The opening session was oc- cupied chiefly with the delivery of the president's address by Guy A. Bryant, of Princeton, and with the reports of the standing committees. In the after- noon P. A. Glenn, chief inspector of the state department of agriculture, Ur- bana, discussed "Necessary Precautions in Nurseries Preventing the Spread of Dangerous Insects and Plant Diseases," and J. A. Young, of Aurora, read a paper on "What Does the Nurseryman Sell?" The program for Thursday assigned to the morning the election of ofl&cers and the presentation of two papers, one by A. H. Hill, of Dundee, on "Coop- eration between the Illinois State Nur- serymen's Association and the Amer- ican Association of Nurserymen," and one by J. C. Blair, head of the depart- ment of horticulture of the University of Illinois, on * ' The Possibilities of Uni- versity Education for Nurserymen." In the afternoon the discussion by Alvin Nelson, of Chicago, of the question, "Should the Illinois State Nursery- men's Association Certify to the Sales Made by Members?" and the address by F. W. Von Oven, of Naperville, on "The Forestry Problem in Illinois," were on the program, followed by an open forum. Free-for-all in Open Forum. The stimulating nature of the discus- sion in this forum is shown by the fol- lowing questions printed on the pro- gram: To ■wliat extent does It pay the retail nursery- men to grow stock?

Would a vigilance committee be a good thing for the association to have? Would it pay the association to publish a list of stock for sale by its members? Should the members of the association attempt cooperative buying of material or propagating stock? Should the association attempt to reform Im- proper practices In the trade or should such reforms be left to legislation? Does newspaper advertising pay the nursery- men? What method of advertising pays best? Shall we hold the next convention In the southern part of the state? Do southern-grown roses give as good results as northern-grown? Will a reliable nurseryman grade poorer during a time of shortage? Does it pay best to sell at retail through dealers, commission agents or salary men? Is substitution permissible in the retail trade? Should any attempt be made toward stand- ardized prices in the retail trade? Should the retail nursery business organize in Illinois or the middle west? Is the nurseryman who furnishes stock to the retail customer at wholesale prices an injury to the trade?

HAMBURG LATE PINK CHRYSANTHEMUM is an improyed late pink Maud Dean, having more petals and, if grown for late, will hardly ever show an open center. The average grower of Chrysanthemums must have varieties which are easy to handle, and from which he can cut as near 100% of perfect blooms as possible. URmbursr Late Pink has been grown for the last four years, and produces a very high proportion o( good flowers. It is not an exhibition variety, but for late pink Is one of the best for commercial purposes. It can be had la bloom the latter part of November by taking an early bud, but some of the flowers will show open centers. By selecting late buds, after October 1, most of the flowers are cut during December, and would advise to select late buds, as the later buds will hardly ever show an open center, and some flowers can be had even in January. Keeping qualities are excellent and where a graceful pink flower is wanted, Hamburg L,at« Pink cannot be surpassed. Plants will be ready March 1, 1920, and all orders will be filled in rotation.

There has been a large run on funeral work and it was almost impos- sible to get flowers at any price for this work. Flowers for the hospital and sick room are in great demand and, though the prices are somewhat higher than holiday prices, it is hard to get enough stock to supply the demand. The stock that is available is good. Boses were never bettor and carnations are fine. A few daffodils and Paper Whites are arriving, but not enough to be noticed. Freesias, mignonette and calendulas are in short supply. Single and double violets have been a great help in the funeral work. Flowering plants such as cinerarias, cyclamens and primulas were life-savers last week, having been used in the place of cut flowers. "Valley is plentiful, good and much lower in price. Various Notes. Philip Weil, of C. C. Pollworth Co., Milwaukee, Wis., was a visitor last week. The Duluth Floral Co. had a large casket cover for the Ames funeral, composed of valley and Russell roses. O. J. Eischen, who has been away from business for a week with the flu, is im- proving now, but it will be some time before he will be back at business again. J. J. Le Borious reports business good.

Trade conditions are still at the nerve- wrecking stage, with only a short sup- ply in all lines. In spite of high prices, the demand is such as to tax the re- tailers' efforts to the utmost to meet it. Potted plants are having an unprece- dented sale, as they take the place of cut flowers for the sick and as birthday remembrances. It would be a relief to be able to accumulate a little stock.

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, fififured 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. 8. CYPRESS Pocket Library, is a little book filled with a bis bunch of facts and figures about greenhouse construction— profitable reading. There are 43 books in the "Library." all of which give useful facts and plans about HOW. WHEN and WHERE to use CYPRESS. "The Wood Eternal," AND WHY. Which one shall we send you?

Nielsen was acquainted with AOMCO performance. He preferred it to any other, after trying them all. That's why— he placed a iecond order lor four AGMCO houyet, 34x200 ft., detvched, und a big boiler room 50x90 ft., steel frame. Here's a man with a breadth of growing experience seldom equaled. A Juan who is a member of the craft by right of heredity— one who has studied the game in five different countries, and grown stock in every kind of greenhouse built.

BARNARD CO., 231-235 W. Madison St., CHICAGO INDEX TO ADVERTISEMENTS AND TABLE OF CONTENTS-PAGES TWO AND THREE VmWxMX t9, 1920 Tlie Low Cost Of High Prices r"b You have beard of the hundreds of thonsands of doUars lost by the recent big storm, by greenhouses that went down. Yon have heard not alone of the cost of tbe mined henses, bat the big same of money lost in lost crops. Crops that were bringing money-making prices, soeh as never was the like before. The loss of such houses is not to be figured at what they eoit; but what it will cost to replace them. Knowing the cost of building materials today, you fully appreciate what a terrific lose it all means. Among all these houses that went down by the weight of the snow and force of the wind, none of tlMm were Lord & Bnrnham construction. In Ikct. never in our half a century of greenhouse building, has one of our Iron frame houses ever collapsed. Some have accused us of being high priced, and haven't taken the pains to find out if we really were. Ol^rs liave accused us and then backed up, when they found out how our prices are always backed up with a full dollar for dollar value. What does a man save, by -saving a few hundred dollars when he buys a bouse, only to losi^ it and a lot more, when it goes down with the first big storm? You may say that "a storm, like this last big one only happens once in a lifetime." Once is enough, isn't it, when in a night the savings of a lifeUme are lost? It's for just those once in a lifetime storms, that we construct our houses. We construct them so tiie money you put in them is a 'permatveni investment. They do cost more than some bouses. The only reason they cost more is because they are worth mare. It's a case when a high cost is a low one. When you are ready to talk building, say when and where and we'll be there. fop^^e^Pttnihamy.

Though the very severe cold wave of the first part of the week set back the cut of roses considerably, still, as more moderate weather is experienced, a larger cut is sure to become a certainty. This will result in decreased prices. We will give our customers the benefit of these reductions as fast as possible. Our regular customers know from experience that they are given promptly the benefit of any drop in prices. It is this square dealing, together with the ex- ceptionally fine quality of our roses, that has built up our immense shipping trade. We invite those who wish to place regular shipping orders direct with the grower to give our stock and service a trial. Find out by comparison the advantages of buying direct of a large grower. The value of his greenhouses is largely in his ability to satisfy his customers. A larger supply of miscellaneous flowers, including carnations, is being received. Any flowers which we do not grow ourselves, we will buy for our customers and give them the advantage of the lowest market prices and best quality. Greeahones: Hinsdale Mid Grens Statioa, IN.

Thai the carnation has not attained the popularity to which it is en- titled is laid hy this great advocate of that flower to conditions which the trade can remedy. His judgment will he heard hy the whole trade with the same interest it received at the convention of Tennessee florists. wmn^: TJCH has been said, during the last year or two, about the wauiiig popularity of the carnation, the reasons therefor, etc. I submit that the carnation is not losing popularity, except in certain quarters, and in these instances its loss of prestige is not due to any fault of the carnation itself, nor to the public. The fault lies entirely with the grower and the dealer. There is perhaps no flower that offers a greater range of color or greater pos- sibilities in combinations and contrasts than the carnation. Then why, may I ask you, do the growers limit their stock to the few staple colors, white and two shades of pink and red, and why do not the dealers demand of the growers a steady supply of the many beautiful shades not seen in the large markets nowf And why do the dealers not avail themselves of the opportunity to use them when they are offered f Monotonous Fare. It is a well known fact that one may become surfeited with the finest deli- cacies if they are served up too stead- ily. Can you blame the public for tir- ing of carnations, or of tabooing them in their home decora- tions, when the only thing they can buy is what they see at every funeral? Even at the • fu- nerals there is too much sameness, and because of this lack of variety the pub- lic tires of your carnations. I feel safe in saying that ninety per cent of the carnation sprays you make are of one solid color and that color is either white, light pink or dark pink. How many of you have made sprays of the beautiful By A. F. J. BAUR Benora, or a combination of En- chantress Supreme and Pocahontas 1 You have, all of you, made sprays of daffodils, but how many have ever used Yellow Prince carnations in a spray, and who among you has ever gone out of his way to procure blooms of a flaked variety to offer a customer who would appreciate "something different "t Whetting the Public Appetite. This, I claim, is one of the principal reasons why the carnation has lost popu- larity in the big markets. It is up to you floral artists to whet the public's appetite for new colors and combina- tions. The growers will produce any- thing that you will assure them a sale for. A. F. J. Baur. I maintain that the carnation has lost popularity only in the large markets, partly for the reasons already stated and for the further reason that the blooms are not handled properly. Un- less there is a radical improvement in the method of packing and handling carnation blooms in the wholesale houses, there will bo little chance for the return of the carnation's old-time popularity. How many of the carna- tions that you buy in the average whole- sale house have even a semblance of the form the flowers possessed at the time they were cut from the plants, espe- cially if the blooms were shipped to the wholesale house from a distance of 100 miles or thereabout t While a pleasing color may be of first importance, a form that is pleasing to the eye is not far behind. Many of the car- nation blooms that come through the wholesale houses have a striking re- semblance to col- ored rags on sticks. Popular as Ever. But the grower who retails his own carnations, or the retailer who has his carnations brought to him direct from the g r e e n h 0 uses, finds the carnation as popular as ever, especially if he does not confine himself to the three or four staple colors. This brings us to the buying of new varieties; also va- rieties of earlier in- troduction, but not seen growing in the average carnation range. That we must procure stock of the new varie- ties as they are offered, goes with- out saying. New varieties must bo produced ; other- wise, not only would improvement stop, but within a few years there would not be a single va- riety with health and vigor in culti- vation. Without a 16 The Florists^ Review Fbbkuauy 19, 1920 aiarket for the fruits of their labor the carnation breeders could not con- tinue their work; hence there is a dou- ble reason why we should purchase the new varieties. Fortunately, those who follow this line of work usually conduct cither a plant or cut flower business and uo not depend entirely on the results of their breeding for their livelihood. Thus they are able to carry on their work until they have produced a variety which they really consider an advance over existing sorts. Testing New Varieties. That a large percentage of the new introductions fail of success is a well known fact and is often made the basis for complaint. To my mind, this does not indicate that the carnation breed- ers are dishonest. To anyone who holds such opinion, I would suggest that he get personally acquainted with the men engaged in this line of work and I feel sure that his doubts about the honesty and integrity of these men will soon be dispelled. This, I consider, is one of the real problems confronting the in- dustry— to see to it that there shall be no lack of confidence between the grow- ers and the hybridizers. Few, if any, varieties are dissemi- nated these days without having really made good with the originator, and, if given similar growing conditions on your place, they will do the same for you. If one of these varieties fails with you, do not blame the dissemi- nator, but rather blame yourself for iiaving failed to provide the conditions most favorable to its maximum devel- (ipnient. We, all of us, are inclined to l)ass final judgment on a variety after one season's trial. This is a mistake, for which the numerous introductions arc largely responsible. If we were privileged to buy, for instance, a new white carnation only once in five years, we would exert more effort to learn the special requirements of each variety purchased. Learning Mrs. Lawson's Whims. Only a few growers succeeded with Mrs. Thos. W. Lawson the first season after its dissemination, but these few succeeded so tremendously that almost everyone who had bought it resolved to master its whims, and finally, after a few years, every grower was growing his bench or house of Lawsons and swearing by it. Matchless had nearly the same experience. Many growers were disappointed in it the first year, but it showed up so finely at the exhibi- tions and the more skillful growers did it so well that many wore encouraged to try it again and now Matchless is dis- placing all other whites on many places. T do not mean to advocate three or four years' trial for every variety purchased. That would not be practical. But the cases cited show that we should blame ourselves rather than the disseminator when a variety fails with us. During the last two years the dis- semination of new carnations came practically to a standstill and, now that new varieties are being offered again, it might be interesting to run over the list of what we now have and see where we may effect improvement by displac- ing the old varieties with the new. In white we have been growing White En- chantress, White Wonder and Match- loss, a trio that is hard to beat. Crys- tal White is now added to the list and is finding favor with many growers. In a Class by Itself. In flesh pink, Enchantress Supreme is still the leader. Laddie, which comes in the same color class, is really in a class by itself. Its size and general ex- cellence are setting a standard for the breeders to aim at. Naturally, it does not bloom so freely as the standard va- rieties. Don't throw out all your Su- preme to make room for Laddie. You will have use for both. In light pink, some are still growing Winsor and Gloriosa, for this is a color the public wants. Our own Euth Baur comes in this class and we shall allow you to pass judgment on it next season. In medium pink, we have Mrs. 0. W. Ward and Eose-pink Enchantress. Neither of these is entirely satisfactory, but nothing has appeared so far to dis- place them. Eosalia is easily the best in dark pink, although a few growers are still doing Eosette extremely well. Washington is also grown by those growers who stick closely to the En- chantress family. In red, Beacon is still holding its own in some localities, but its propensity for splitting in midwin- ter has brought it into disfavor with most growers. Belle Washburn is fairly The Editor is pleased when a Reader presents his ideas on any subject treated in Si>rsTs' As experience is the best teacher, so do we learn fastest by an exchange of experiences.

WE SHALL BE CLAD TO HEAR FROM YOU Jroo and fine in quality. Nebraska is t'rccr in flowering, but not so good in •inality. As Merry Christmas is our own i)roduction, we naturally think it is "it." New Scarlet Carnations. Potor Fisher is giving us Ethel Fislior, a scarlet which he considers superior to Beacon, and the Dorners are getting a fine scarlet ready for dissemination next year. Nic Zweifel's Edna, which w- have on trial, is a splendid scarlet. We also have a fine scarlet sport of Eosalia and expect to have it readv for vou in the winter of 1921-22. In crimson, Pocahontas rules in point <>f quality, while Samuel Goddard's Doris leads in production. Donald, as shown by Strout 's, looks like a winner and Bernice has made a splendid show- ing at the exhibitions. Benora has no rival in the variegated class and Maine Sunshine is a yellow that will find a welcome wherever things out of the ordinary are appreciated. Just at this time, there is no flaked variety offered, but Strout 's flaked Matchless will soon fill this gap. There will soon be a sup- ply in all colors and the improvement of the carnation will again catch its stride. Within the last two years, prices on cut blooms, cuttings and plants have increased materially. There can be no disputing the fact that the increased cost of production of both plants and cut flowers justifies this increase. The extraordinary demand, brought on by abnormal conditions, has shot prices sky- ward. This, however, need not cause undue alarm. Adjustment of Prices. But let us, as soon as possible, get our prices adjusted, keeping them as reasonable as may be, figuring on a basis of cost of production. On the other hand, we owe it to our employees to see to it that prices remain high enough to keep their wages where they now are. Greenhouse employees have never received the wages they were en- titled to, as compared with wages in other industries where the intelligence required is no greater and where the acquirement of skill and proficiency de- mands no more time and patience. Wages in other industries are high and probably will be reduced in the future, but greenhouse wages must remain where they now are. Greater effort should be made to pro- duce in each growing establishment its maximum yield, rather than to raise prices unduly. There are too many houses that produce only a half crop. In every large flower market you will find a few growers who are making money, selling their product in the same market that consumes the product of numerous growers who barely make both ends meet. The prosperous ones do not get higher prices for the same grade of stock, but they, produce a higher quality and at the same time se- cure the maximum yield from their houses. Better growing methods are needed, rather than radical increases in prices. Carrjring Carnations Over. Along this line, I might mention the possibilities in carrying carnation plants through a second season. This question has been discussed pro and con on many occasions and, as we have practiced the method more or less dur- ing the last ten years, our experience might be of interest to you. We have not found all varieties amenable to this treatment. Some varieties will not bear the summer heat as well as others, and therefore are not so good for this pur- pose. We have carried over success- fully White Enchantress, Enchantress Supreme, Pink Delight, Good Cheer, Beacon, Euth Baur, Eosalia and a num- ber of seedling varieties. We have failed with Gloriosa, White Wonder and Benora. We find that the key to success in this is to avoid cutting back the plants too hard at one time and to get them restarted before the summer's heat sets in. Having a considerable rooted cutting trade, we are able to work to better advantage than the purely cut flower grower. We select a bench or house for carrying over and begin propagating early in December, taking off all the young breaks as fast as they reach the proper size for cuttings. We continue this until the end of the propagating season, by which time the crop of blooms is beginning to thin out, and by May the crop will be entirely off. We then go over the plants and trim back ■:^s^ Febeuary 19, 1920 The Florists^ Review 17 any stems that were not cut low enough at the time the bloom was cut, our aim being to keep the plants compact. If there is much dry foliage, we remove what can be taken off without barking the stems. After that, we top the young shoots the same as on newly benched plants, until we are ready for the crop to come. We aim to have the crop come in late August or early September, as by that time the asters are usually on the wane. Profits on Carried-Over Plants. Should we decide to carry over a va- riety of which we have plenty of stock without using the cuttings as stated. we allow the plants to come along nat- urally until about March 1. At that time we cut back all the shoots that have not reached the bud stage. In this way the cutting back is done grad- ually and the results are the same as in the other method. Our records show, in estimating the profits on a bed car- ried over a period of two years, count- ing the cuttings taken and the blooms cut, that the yield will run away ahead of a bench planted each year with young stock. I feel that this method could be employed to good advantage and made to yield a handsome profit by the carnation growers. Whether this process of carrying over stock would be as successful in the south as in the northern latitudes, I am not prepared to say, and this calls up the question of varieties adapted to your climatic conditions^ Sooner or later, there will be developed a strain of carnations that will thrive in your warmer climate. I cannot suggest any definite course of procedure, except that by a series of crosses you will grad- ually evolve a strain especially suited to your needs. Some of your growers have raised seedlings and I would urge them to continue making crosses from year to year, selecting each year those varieties that show the greatest heat- resisting power.

The daily newspaper's favorite sport is posing as the defender of the "long- suffering public. ' ' It indulges in dia- tribes to this end whenever it sees a target, with little or no preliminary in- vestigation as to whether it is a fair target or not. If the business or trade that is shot at is sufficiently strong or well organized to reply, the public often learns that it is not suffering so much from that particular source as its defender assumes. Just now the eagle eyes of the jour- nalistic marksmen see profiteers every- where, so many indeed that they feel they can take a pot shot wherever prices seem high. Naturally, the florist seems an easy target, so the St. Louis Star took the shot at him printed be- low, which doubtless came to the atten- tion of many others of the trade besides George E. Beal, of Creal Springs, 111. How little responsibility the newspa- per wished to assume in its attack is indicated by the phraseology. The writer states that the average retail price of flowers "is said" to have jumped at an extraordinary rate. He is not even sure enough of his subject to state the charge positively; evidently he has not been a florists' patron him- self. Could the florists' trade follow the example of others, the actual facts — that for the first time in its history is the trade as a whole on a profitable basis — might be presented to the public to counteract such statements. Few peo- ple realize the expense in flower pro- duction. As a matter of fact, the Star 's writer himself gave the reason why a florist cannot be a profiteer — that his com- modity is not a necessity, as is bread and clothing, and therefore the public will cease to buy it as soon as the price asked seems unreasonable. The St. Louis Star's editorial follows: CURBING THE FLORIST PROFITEER. According to reports, .the germ of profiteer- ing bas affected tlie florists' trade to a degree said, in many Instances, to surpass anytliing which hitherto has formed the basis of complaint on the part of the long-suffering public. While prices of other commodities frequently have doubled or tripled, the arerage retail price of flowers, whether for funerals, parties or mere tokens of affection, is said to have jumped at a rate in which it would be difficult to imagine the multiple. With respect to flowers, howeyer, the situa- tion is somewhat different than is the case with bread, clothes and street car fares. People, as deeply as they may cherish blooms, can get along without them. They could not be clas- sified as essential. Hence, It is not a difficult matter for the public to flght the florist profiteer effectively. The process is a simple one — merely to stop buying flowers. One florist has suggested the use of artificial flowers and plants, to escape the high prices of the genuine article. Such suggestion, liowever, might not prove pop- ular. For real lovers of nature, artificial flow- ers would not succeed as a substitute. Further- iiore, should the substitution prove popular, the contagion of profiteering probably would creep very quickly among the dealers in artificial plants. Public demand is all that it takes to nourish the profiteering process. However, the public need not be a victim of the florist prof- iteer. If the public stops buying flowers, the florist promptly will discover that he has got beyond what the traffic will bear. COMMENT ON HIGH PRICES. If newspapers are to comment on the liigher prices of flowers — and most of tliem do, sooner or later — the attitude of the reporter can be affected by the florist from whom he gets his story. The florist can, if he chooses, make the high prices seem a matter of course, or, on the otlier hand, make them seem a deplorable and objectionable result of e'ircumstances. A little diplomacy will affect the public's view through the uewspaper reporter. Compare the following, headed, "Car- nation Prices Set New Altitude Rec- ord," in the Kansas City Journal, with other newspaper comment: In those days of aviating prices comes the al- most common carnation to join the ranks of the uncommon. Hack in the pre-war days, the cnruatiou hung its head with shame when a dozen of its sweet- scented family were exchanged for a $1 bill. During the war the carnation was lifted to the SL'-a-dozen plane. And in these days, well, the carnation has learned not to hang its pretty head. It lias joined the regiment of costly fancies and today sells for $4 a dozen! The price is the same at every florist's shop in Kansas City. Florists scoff at the idea of "fixed prices." They say Chiongo is the crite- rion and Chicagoans are paying .?4. Of course, tlie demand for enrnations hiuI all otlier flowers and floral designs Ims been unprec- edented this winter. Witli sickness in many homes and a curtailed ontp\it, prices of all flow- ers have been boosted considerably. Florists say the high prices have caused pros- pective buyers to turn from cut flowers to the |K)tted offerings; especially in cases where the flowers are to form sickroom decorations. And physicians are recommending that potted flow- ers be placed in sickrooms. "They grow and encourage patients, while cut flowers soon wither away and tend to lower the hopes of a sick person," a doctor explained. PRICES VS. PRODUCTION. The high prices of flowers have oc- casioned much comment of late, in St. Louis going so far that an editorial in one of the local papers called the flo- rists profiteers and suggested that, in order to curb them, the public should stop buying fiowers. Now, when our national and local publicity commit- tees are endeavoring to get the public to follow our slogan and "Say It with Flowers," such suggestions should cause the ^ grower, wholesaler and re- tailer to get together. We as florists must certainly tell the public that flowers are essential, but the public does not see it that way. They argue that they must have clothes and shoes and, to emphasize that, they tell you that they are patching their shoes and mending their clothes. They also tell you that they can eat candy, which, by the way, has greatly increased in price, but that they cannot eat flowers. Now, I think that, after the growers organize, some system must be estab- lished that will prevent flowers from being sold too high or too low. The trouble, however, appears to me to strike root from the fact that flowers have been sold so cheap that the public imagines that the retailers and grow- ers are making enormous profits. Of course it will always be said that supply and demand rule the market. That ia true to a certain extent. Since Christ- mas there has been a big demand and only a limited supply, but now spring is coming on. Arc we to jump from the sublime to the ridiculous by quot- ing roses and carnations at 25 cents ])er dozen? I think the great problem of the hour is, what to do with increased production if the demand is lowered, but I believe that the answer should be, better quality in flowers and fewer of them; if not, put a limit on the low price of flowers. If the public were given at normal times carnations at $1 and $2 per dozen and roses at $1 to $3 per dozen, they would then not argue over paying higher prices when stock (lir. get scarce. Soon sweet peas, which are now sell- ing at wholesale for .$1 to $1.50 per bunch, will become plentiful. Are we to see them on bargain counters, re- tailed to the public at prices that do not pay for the picking and bunching of the flowers! The argument that vegetables and fruits go up and down does not hold in our case; they are something to eat, whereas flowers are for enjoyment and pleasure. Let us supply flowers to the public at reason- able prices, but not at ruinous prices which do not pay for the growing or the handling. C. W.

E. H. Wilson. SNOW ON GREENHOUSES. There are times when "scientific facts" and practical application refuse to work together. Instances of this are the recent greenhouse accidents at North Wales, Pa., and elsewhere. The office man tells one that certain glass will stand a pressure of thirty pounds to the square foot when the pressure is evenly applied. Any practical florist knows that this is impossible in the case of snow on a greenhouse. When snow falls on a greenhouse, that which falls on the glass begins to melt, while that on the bars does not. As the snow continues to fall, sooner or later — depending on the inside tem- perature— an arch or bridge is formed between the bars. In the case of bars set sixteen inches apart, this bridge is sufficient to withstand almost any amount of snow. I have seen it hold up three feet of drifts, endangering the bars themselves, as they had the whole weight to support, hardly an ounce of weight being on the glass. But where bars are set twenty-four inches apart, under a snow arch of that length glass will not stand up and, of course, gives way in the middle, since the pressure there is farthest from the supporting rods. It is a safe bet that, if the glass had been set the 16-inch way, not a pane would have been broken. Certainly the little additional light obtained with 24-inch glass would not justify the ordinary florist in thus playing vdth fate, since the odds against him would be too large. S. C, Templin. QUABANTININa THE OBIENT. A recent mail brought a copy of a "notice of public hearing to consider the advisability of quarantining Asia, Japan, Philippine islands and Oceania on account of dangerous plant diseases and insect pests." Here is a cool announcement of a pro- posal to quarantine half the world, the half of the world to which our gardens and greenhouses are most indebted for their most valuable plants and, more- over, the half of the world to which we may look for a continued increase of our collections. In view of Quarantine No. 37, now in operation, one may ask: Will raising the fence a little higher make any difference t The object supposed to be obtained by these quarantine acts is the exclu- sion of pests dangerous to vegetable growth of all kinds. This object is im- possible of accomplishment in its en- tirety, since such pests as are of a bac- terial nature and others of fungoid or- igin may be disseminated by air cur- rents, as was the germ of the recent in- fluenza epidemic. Those of insect char- acter can travel on material other than living plants. Witness the corn borer, now alarming New England farmers, and the wood borer, found in American packing cases and about which Austra- lia is just now agitated. The logical end of all such legislation is to cut off all international trade and intercourse. These quarantine acts will not effec- tively keep out disease. They will ac- complish no more in that direction than proper inspection at ports of import would do and have done in the past. Panics are everywhere contagious. The effect of the actions of the Federal Horticultural Board is seen in recent hysterical legislation in Illinois. In view of this and what is threatened in New Jersey, it behooves all those inter- ested in horticulture, both trade and amateur alike, to pause a moment and consider the logical outcome. Follow- ing the lead of the F. H. B., state will quarantine against state, then county against county, until finally it will be impossible to move a plant from one's garden to that of a neighbor. The trade has the choice of two things, either to resist this pernicious legislation with all its might, or vdnd up business while the winding up is possible. The cry of quar- antine measures assisting nurserymen and florists is mere camouflage. The bankruptcy court is where it leads to and, worse than this, it means not only the bankruptcy of the horticultural trade but the bankruptcy of the garden art in America. The same mail brought a notice that the House had appropriated $239,000 C. O. D.— CASH OB DIE. Between January 28 and February 13 there were in Fort Smith, Ark., 1,645 cases of flu and the death rate averaged three per day. Financially speaking, it has nearly been the death of me; I mean that it has taken all the cash that I can lay my hands on to pay for the C. O. D. shipments that come in. For example, Friday, February 13, I had three funerals which aggregated over $600; of that amount, I paid over $100 for flowers and took in only $26, as the rest was charged. When one's daily averages are $75 worth of C. O. D. ship- ments arriving, $300 on the books and $24 cash, it is clear that, if the flu keeps up, I shall soon be on my way to the county farm. I am not kicking about the business, for it is the best ever, but it certainly hurts a fellow's pocketbook, especially when his bank account is none too large. I write this simply to show the condi- tions in this town; it is a big credit town, most of the orders coming in over the phone. Then, too, the prices of flowers are the highest ever known, both wholesale and retail, but still peo- ple will buy. When you have to carry them for from thirty to sixty days, it is some hard job to keep your head above water. George Rye.

Fbbroart 10, 1920 The Florists^ Review 19 iv»A^vSAiix?yj^vsyLXS/j[^S>g LOCAL PUBLICITY FEATURES |N REGARD to the objects and ambitions of the na- tional publicity campaign I am sure all up-to-date flo- rists everywhere are well informed. The real up-to- date, honest-to-g o o d n e a s, amount-to-something florist knows that he is in a wonderful business. As sponsor for that business, he feels that he has a wonderful product to offer to the world. Flowers represent the indis- pensable thing which you and all edu- cated people demand for certain and numerous occasions the world over. This is the story that the national pub- licity campaign is trying to tell. Now, you gentlemen have asked me to come down here to give you a plan as to how each and every community can pursue a local campaign to coordi- nate and harmonize with this national campaign now being carried on. As a general proposition, I will state that the condi- tions prevailing in the dif- ferent communities are bound to differ to a con- siderable extent. In this discussion, however, I will endeavor to point out some things which in my opinion are essential to the future success and advancement of our business. I will di- vide my suggestions for this local campaign into four captions, not given in the sequence of their im- portance, but in the order in which they occur from this date on: Steps to Success. First, a better general and technical education among all workers in the florists' trade; second, a spring flower week cam- paign for the different com- munities; third, a general newspaper publicity cam- paign to cover as much of the entire year as practical, and fourth, a "Say It with Flowers" week cam- paign for the fall. In other words, those who desire to follow my sugges- tions can now start on number one and a little later take up in order two, three and four to cover the entire year. A publicity campaign is supposed to be synonymous with an educational cam- paign. If we are to have an educa- tional campaign in flowers for the pub- lic, we, as florists, must be the teachers. Are we competent, as store proprietors, salespeople, designers, decorators and general florists, to be teachers of the public in our respective lines? Have we equipped ourselves with all avail- able information on the various sub- jects? Are we in a position to give final and satisfactory information on all subjects which are referred to us? There are a few, no doubt, who are studying the business all the time and are able to give intelligent and satisfactory in- formation on all subjects which are re- ferred to them. This, however, is not The address of Z. D. Blackistone, of Washing- ton, D. O.. on "Local Publicity," delivered be- fore the Tennessee State Florists' Association at KnoxTllle, February 6. general. I do not believe the ordinary florist is as well posted on his business as he could be and should be. There- fore, the first step which I recommend would be better education, both tech- nical and general. For the spring flower week campaign I have an idea which, so far as I know, is original. We all are confronted with the problem of waste flowers during the prolific blooming period of spring. The question of how to prevent this loss has been a thorn in the side of the florists, so to speak, since the business first be- gan. Now, fiowers are not a material substance. We cannot eat them or wear them, but they have a mission in life. That mission is to spread beauty, fra- grance, sunshine, happiness, love and BLACKISTONE'S BIG FOUR other words, of every hundred dollars' worth of flowers sold probably seventy- five per cent or more are sent as pres- ents, just through kindness of heart, sympathy and love. Now, if our busi- ness is so dependent upon this gracious disposition of the public, does it not be- hoove the florist himself to set the ex- ample in liberality? This is, in my opinion, one of the greatest opportuni- ties we have for publicity. There should be no taint of commercialism, or giving with a string tied to it, but it should be on a broad and liberal basis. With each contribution going out there should be a well worded card or letter. Tell the public that it is one of the joys of the florists' profession, that they have the opportunity at this time of the year to shed through the bounteousness of nature's own gifts the message of sunshine and hope. Not only say this, but train your minds to think it and believe it. If you don't get business returns from it, you will get heaps of satis- faction and pleasure, which after all is the thing which everybody in life is pursu- ing.

Therefore, if these flowers can be so used as to fulfill their mis- sion they are not wasted. Though the florist may not be paid for them di- rectly, they are fulfilling their reason for existence and the world is better for them. Now, my idea is that if the florists in each community, for one week in the spring, would assemble their sur- plus flowers and, instead of throwing them away, would advertise them through the newspapers by giving them away, they would be doing a big thing. Spring Sunshine Week. Disseminate these messengers of sun- shine to the sick wherever they may be and call it the "Florists' Spring Sun- shine Week." In this way they would redound to the good of the general trade and compensate the florists in publicity for all expense and trouble of the undertaking. There is one thing that we must always bear in mind and that is, that the flower business is founded upon the idea of G-I-F-T. In My idea is that the gen- eral newspaper publicity campaign should be carried out through combined ef- fort. This subject has been treated so well and has been handled so ably by many different communi- ties that any remarks from me would be superfluous. 1 would suggest to those in- terested to familiarize themselves with the history of the publicity campaign which has been conducted by the combined florists of Milwaukee. Remember that the best insight into the fu- ture is obtained through the study of the past. Therefore, I say seriously that we should study the history of this publicity campaign which has been con- ducted by the combined florists of Mil- waukee. As I am supposed to be the father of "Say It with Flowers" week, no doubt you will expect me to specialize on this subject. I am frank to admit that I consider it one of the greatest opportunities for publicity that we have. In other lines of life the year dies with the fall, but with the florists it begins, so to speak. This is one of the reasons why the ' * Say It with Flow- ers" week is so appropriate for open- ing the fall flower campaign in every community. The time for this cam- paign can best be decided by each and every community according to the con- ditions prevailing there. It would be folly to have this at a time when flow- ers are not abundant. The spirit of gen- erosity and giving should be the key- note of this campaign. The florists all over the country will certainly be losing an opportunity if 20 The Florists^ Review Fbbbdabt 19, 1920 they do not take this up and make it an annual affair. It is absolutely essential at the end of the dull summer for us to have something to stimulate and awaken us to new ambitions and hopes. If the "Say It with Flowers" week does nothing more than awaken and en- thuse ourselves and the employees, the battle is already won. In addition to this, it awakens the public, which has drifted away from the habit of buying flowers during the summer, to the fact that the greenhouse flowers and plants are putting on their most welcome as- pect to make the home happy and bright for the winter. In our campaign in Washington the keynote was giving and not receiving. We started by sending flowers to the churches; next we -sent flowers to hos- pitals; then we sent large baskets of flowers with suitable "Say It with Flowers" pennants on them to be put in large store windows, flowers to the inmates of the aged homes, flowers to newspaper men who had extended cour- tesies, flowers to soldiers, and flowers to any sick people we knew of. The point to be emphasized is the sanding of a nicely worded letter with each and every flower sent out. In some cases these letters were read before a whole congregation of the church. This, you can readily understand, would not hap- pen unless great pains were taken to word the letter in the choicest language. "'These are some of the ideas that I suggest for local publicity. Observe that the keynote of them is spelled in four letters, G-I-V-E. Remember that it is more blessed to give than to re- ceive. If your community wishes to be up-to-date in the flower business, it should embody the spirit of generosity. If your firm wishes to be one of the leaders in its community, it must em- body the spirit of generosity. If your firm wants to be one of the leaders among the floripts of the country, it must embody the spirit of generosity. "There was a man, though some did think him mad, The more he gave away, the more he had." INCREASE THE DEMAND. And Grow to Meet It. There is much talk these days to the effect that advertising should be dis- continued, since there are not enough flowers to fill the present demand. While such an assertion would seem ridiculous coming from business men, yet, as conditions now stand in the florists' business, there is, to say the least, an element of plausibility in such talk. The $50,000 subscribed last year to the advertising campaign was contrib- uted by just 2,300 individuals. Now, there are in this country something like 15,000 florists. This would mean that there are over 12,000 who are contented to go along in the old rut and do noth- ing to improve the business. When we find that such a condition as this exists, is it any wonder that we hear of a short- age of flowers all over the country? Is it not reasonable to suppose that this large majority of florists who had ab- solutely no interest in the advertising campaign would make no preparation for the increased demand that this cam- paign has caused all over the country? Those 2,300 florists, who made the cam- paign possible last year, and from its start, have demonstrated to the large majority of their fellow-craftsmen that advertising pays; surely this majority is not going to stand idly by and see a small number of their brother florists carry the burden any longer. Handling Big Business. Cooperative advertising has demon- .strated that it pays; it has brought a greater volume of business to your doors than you are capable of handling. The florists' business is passing through a crisis; this is the time to look the sit- uation honestly in the face, probe the wound deep and find out just what the cause is, and then, like the true sur- geon, remove it. When the S. A. F. selected the na- tional publicity committee, they chose a set of men who took their position seriously. They are all broad-gauge business men; they were appointed on this committee for the specific object of popularizing flowers in the United States, and they went into this fray with printers' ink for their weapon and ' * Say It with Flowers ' ' for their slogan. They have put up a battle that is at- tracting the attention of the whole country and now those who should be supporting them are crying for peace; they can no longer get sufficient ammu- nition up to the firing line. Fighting the Fight. Here is an illustration of the problem: There are in this country about 100,- (•00,000 men, women and children. Dur- ing the war about 2,000,000 of this number, the flower of the country's manhood, were overseas; they were there for a specific purpose, "to whip the Hun." It was their business to do the fighting. Did we ever stop to think what it cost to sustain this army in a foreign country? They were, in a way, as dependent as new-born babes; they had to be fed; they had to be clothed; they had to be armed and have the am- munition supplied. There was not a man in this great army who could not have provided for himself, but he did not have the time. They were fighting our battles and we were just as much interested in the result as they were. What would the consequences have been if, when they had the Germans on the run, the 98,000,000 on whom they were depending had failed to get am- munition to them? But they did not fail; everyone did his bit; our grand- mothers knitted socks; our sisters took men's positions; everyone bought Lib- erty bonds, and we accomplished the job we started out to do in about one- half the time expected. The Advertising Emergency Force. Now put the publicity committee in the place of the officers; the 2,300 sub- scribers are the A. E. F., and the bal- ance of the florists of the country are the American people. Can you go back on them now? To the credit of the American people be it said that they stuck and there is no one who can make me believe that thfi florists of this country are not going to stick just as loyally to their little advertising army as did the American people to the A. E. F. At the beginning of the war we heard the usual criticism of the authorities failing to get supplies up to the front. It took time to get the machinery in smooth running order, but this fault was soon corrected. The whole thing was new, but American brains soon found a solution for this problem and the same sort of brains is going to solve the lack of production of flowers. As I said before, first find the cause and then remove it. When the cause is found, count me a poor prophet if it is not that more flowers are being used in this country than ever before, that the source of supply is altogether in- sufficient and the only way to correct this shortage is to build more houses and grow more stock. Tate. DUMSEB'S DATA. The G. B. Smith Floral Co., Prudden building, Lansing, Mich., suffered sev- eral hundred dollars' damage through water from the fire department's hose, Thursday, February 5. Mrs. Ballas, of the Lansing Floral Co., discovered flames coming from the fourth and flfth floor windows and turned in the alarm. The fire was soon under control, but the water caused considerable damage to all the lower floors. Mr. Smith, who was at home at the time, was notified and he quickly arrived at his store and did the best he could to protect his property, but it was a difficult job, as the upper floors of the building were drenched by the firemen. New stock was brought to the store from the greenhouses and everything was back to normal by noon next day. Warren G. Matthews, Dayton, C, is enthusiastic about the F. T. D., espe- cially since the meeting last summer, as his business in wire orders has ex- ceeded his most optimistic expectations. Says Mr. Matthews, "Dayton, O., is my headquarters, but the whole U. S. A. is my field of activity." Gustav Schneider, Springfield, 0., re- marked, "Since remodeling my store, business has increased in leaps and bounds and I am convinced that a good store front pays, especially if it is backed up by service." He has added another clerk to his force to help handle the increase in business. At the Lewis House of Flowers, Pon- tiac, Mich., where a new house, 100 feet long, was completed just before cold weather set in, there is a fine crop for Easter and spring sales. The sweet peas have been yielding heavily right through January and February and a new crop is coming in for Easter. The Pontiac Floral Co., Pontiac,Mieh., grows a full line of up-to-date cut flow- ers and pot plants, but every visitor of the trade marvels at the fine quality and enormous size of a house of the old Bride rose. Harry Pierce, the man- ager, said, "Why should we discard a money-maker? Our soil and conditions are just what the Bride requires and for our work we need it." The daily cut includes many extra fine blooms on 3-foot stems. D. W. D. Febbdabt 19, 1020 The Florists^ Review 21 BANiaNO THE CORN BOBER. Proposed Quarantine of the East. The most recent aspect of the quar- antine ghost that stalks among us, lay- ing his repressive hand here and there, is given in a notice from the Secretary of Agriculture, under the date of Janu- ary 30, indicating the probability of a quarantine prohibiting the movement from the New England states. New York and Pennsylvania of "cut flowers or entire plants of chrysanthemum, aster, cosmos, zinnia, hollyhock, also cut flowers or entire plants of gladiolus and dahlia, excepting the bulbs thereof, without stems, and other herbaceous plants," as well as various vegetables. The notice announces a public hearing to be held at the oflSce of the Federal Horticultural Board, Washington, D. C, at 10 a. m., Tuesday, February 24, in order that those interested in the pro- posed quarantine may appear and be heard either in person or by attorney. This quarantine will shut off the men- tioned trade stocks of New England, New York and Pennsylvania from the rest of the country, affecting a great amount of eastern business in mum plants, etc. Bulbs Without Stems. It is interesting to note that this pro- posal is in one respect less stringent than the Illinois quarantine, reported in The Review of January 15. The Il- linois restrictions apply to all parts of gladioli and dahlias except the seeds, whereas the proposed federal measure specifically excludes the bulbs from its provisions. The reason for the inclu- sion of dahlia and gladiolus bulbs in the Illinois quarantine is given in a letter by P. A. Glenn, chief inspector of the Illinois state department of agriculture, as follows: "The corms of gladioli and the tubers of dahlias were included in this quarantine because we understand that a part of the stem is frequently at- tached to them when shipped, and it is this portion of the stem which is likely to carry the larvsB of the borer. I do not know how thoroughly this class of plants is inspected in New York and the New England states, but, so far as my information goes, they are not in- spected as a rule, except, perhaps, in a general way in cases where they are grown by nurserymen. * « • if t^g authorities in New York and all the New England states should undertake to make such inspections, undoubtedly we should be able to modify our regula- tions." Although the punctuation of the proposed federal quarantine is not precise, it seems to provide that bulbs without stems are exempt — surely a more satisfactory solution of the diffi- culty suggested by Mr. Glenn than the proscription of the bulbs altogether. Notice of Public Hearing. However, the quarantine proposed in the notice of the Secretary of Agricul- ture affects so wide a territory and such important flowers that the public hearing February 24 is likely to draw a large representation from the trade. The text of the notice of the public hearing is as follows: The Secretary of Agriculture has Information that the European corn borer, Pyrausta nubilalis, a dangerous Insect not heretofore widely preva- lent or distributed within and throughout the United States and on account of which the no- tice of Quarantine No. 36, which became effec- tive October 1, 1918, was issued, is now linown to occur in portions of the counties of Esses, Middlesex, Suffolk, Norfolk, Plymouth and Barn- stable, Massachusetts; Rockingham, New Hamp- shire; Saratoga, Fulton, Montgomery, Schenec- tady, Albany, Rensselaer, Brie, Cattaraugus and Chautauqua, New York, and Erie, Pennsylva- nia. Since the promulgation of Quarantine No. 36. further investigation of the European corn borer has developed the fact that, in addition to com and broomcorn, including all parts of the stalk, being susceptible, this insect breeds in and may be transported by celery, green or string beans in the pod, beets with tops, spinach, rhubarb, oat and rye straw as such or when used as pack- ing, cut flowers or entire plants of chrysanthe- mum, aster, cosmos, zinnia, hollyhock, also cut flowers or entire plants of gladiolus and dahlia, excepting the bulbs thereof, without stems, and many other herbaceous plants, and further, that such products from infested districts have been moving throughout the period of corn borer in- festation, with- only minor restrictions, into the other New England states of Maine, Vermont, Rhode Island and Connecticut. It appears necessary, therefore, to consider the advlBability of quarantining the states above- named In accordance with the plant quarantine act of August 20, 1912 (37 Stat. 315), as amend- ed by act of Congress approved March 4, 1917 (39 Stat. 1134, 1165), and of restricting or pro- hibiting the movement from these states, or from any infested districts determined therein, of corn and broomcorn, including all parts of the stalk, celery, green or string beans In the pod, beets with tops, spinach, rliubarb, oat and rye straw as such or when used as packing, cut flowers or entire plants of chrysanthemum, as- ter, cosmos, zinnia, hollyhock, also cut flowers or entire plants of gladiolus and dahlia, except- ing the bulbs thereof, wltiiout stems, and other herbaceous plants. Notice is therefore hereby given that a pub- lic hearing will be held at the Department of Agriculture, Washington, D. C, room 11, Fed- eral Horticultural Board, at 10 a. m., February 24, 1920, in order that any person interested in the proposed quarantine may appear and be heard eitlier in person or by attorney. ILUNOIS STATE ASSOCIATION. Secretary Anunann Resigns. Because of the great amount of work which will be required of him as secre- tary of the national growers' associa- tion, J, Fred Ammann, of Edwardsville, has resigned as secretary of the Illinois State Florists' Association. William J. Hembreiker, president of the state as- sociation, asked Albert T. Hey, of May- wood, to serve as secretary in place of Mr. Ammann and Mr. Hey accepted the honor and responsibility. The officers of the association will meet shortly after Easter and form plans for the next twelve months. i\s^ixsy4[\s^t^t^[AS^:v?^[ASiiww[is^ CHICAGO CAMPAIGN ^/SY1r7S\1rrsv1^)«v1r)«v1rirsv1r7St1r7St1rrsv1rlrst1rrsv1r)«v1r^^ WILL START MARCH 1. Directors Elected. At the meeting February 16 of the Allied Florists' Association of Illinois, the name under which the Chicago flo- rists will undertake their advertising campaign, the start was set for March 1. Since the beginning of the month and the beginning of the week fall on the same day, this date is the most suit- able thai could be chosen, stated Otto Amling, who moved that assessments should begin March 1. Upon the sec- onding of A. Lange, the proposal was unanimously adopted. Formal organization was made by the election of directors. The representa- tives nominated by the separate branches of the trade were elected, their terms being as follows: Three years — George Asmus, August Poehlmann, John Michelsen. Two years — W. J. Smyth, Otto Am- ling, Paul Klingsporn. One year — A. Lange, Peter Pearson, Erie Johnson. Upon the motion of C. S. Claussen, a resolution was passed that the presi- dent, vice-president and treasurer be elected by the directors from their own number. At the next meeting this will be adopted as an amendment to the by- laws, which now provide for such choice by the members of the association. Over 300 Signed Up. The meeting at the Hotel Randolph had not the large attendance expected because the retailers, busy with St. Val- entine's day and flu orders, and the growers, coping with a spell of zero weather, overlooked the notices. Work of securing signatures had been pushed since the previous meeting, so that Sec- retary Swenson was able to report a total of 107 retailers, 135 growers and thirteen wholesalers whose signatures lie had actually in his possession and a sufficient number in addition secured by the district captains but not turned in, to bring the total to more than 300. Fred Lautenschlager reported that the meeting called of members of the allied trades had produced no results. He had learned that the opinion was that, since an equitable assessment was difficult to determine for the various al- lied branches, the firms should, at least for the present, make their contribu- tions to the national publicity campaign. The opinion of Mr. Lautenschlager was confirmed by a resolution passed by the meeting recommending that the allied tradesmen contribute to the national fund. Plan Whirlwind Finish. To push the organization to comple- tion while enthusiasm is high and to get as many as possible in line by March 1, a whirlwind finish was proposed for the campaign. In addition to further mail solicitation, there will be a day of personal interviews by directors and leaders in the campaign Friday, Febru- ary 20. Chairman Asmus called for volunteers to offer automobiles to take parties of three or four to cover various sections of the city and for others to form such canvassing parties to visit florists not yet signed up. Those who volunteered at the meeting and any others who are I'.ble to join in the work on that day will meet for luncheon at the Perfecto at 12:30 Friday and spend the after- 22 The Florists^ Review Fbbruabt 19, 1920 noon rounding up the remaining signa- tures. The final meeting of the association before the plan goes into effect, March 1, will be held at the Hotel Randolph Thursday, February 26. By that time signatures of practically all the trade are expected to be in the hands of the directors. Those who have not signed applications may mail them to Secretary Swenson, at Boom 305, 431 South Dear- born street, Chicago. KAN&A.S OITY, MO. The Market. The supply of stock continues short and prices are good. There is less than half enough flowers to meet the demand. Funeral work has slackened somewhat in the last two or three days, which indicates that the influenza epidemic is waning, but there have been enough orders of this kind to use everything available and to keep stock cut to the limit. Plants and baskets have never been sold to any extent for funeral work until this winter, but they have been used in many instances where flowers could not be obtained and they have pleased the buyers. Carnations are arriving a little more freely. Various Notes. ■ The Longview Farm has completed plans for a new greenhouse, 85x425 feet, which will be devoted entirely to roses. C. J. Tucker and Bussell Parker have returned from the east, where they purchased a large number of rose plants. Among the varieties which will be grown are Columbia, Premier, Madame Butterfly, Dunlop and Milady. W. E. Tredup was in Leavenworth last week. S. Bryson Ayres cut 15,000 sweet peas in two days recently and has been get- ting good cuts every day for two months. The Pinehurst Floral Co. has cleaned up on cyclamens and cannot supply the calls for daffodils, jonquils or hyacinths. Tucker Smith and Earl Parker, of Pleasant Hill, Mo., were in the city the early part of last week. P. A. Manson came up Sunday, Feb- ruary 8, to help Mr. Wade move the local equipment of the Pinehurst Floral Co. to 1121 Grand avenue, where the company is now located. Miss J. E. Murray is renovating the interior of her store, having the wood- work painted white, and changing the arrangement of fixtures. Mrs. Margaret Simpson, of the W. L. Rock Flower Co., is visiting her daugh- ter, Elizabeth, who is attending school in Newark, N. J. J. Austin is cutting some carnations, narcissi and calendulas and has a good supply of pot plants and baskets. He cannot get enough jonquils and hya- cinths to meet demands, but has plenty of other bulbous stock. He is cutting from 300 to 500 sweet peas a day. Mrs. Hardy, of the Hardy-Bernard Floral Co., is of the opinion that the growers should put in larger crops of bulbous stock, because it is increasing in popularity each year. R. S. Brown & Son are getting all the carnations they need for their trade and plenty of cut stock of all kinds. Among the recent visitors were: Ed- ward Fetters, of Detroit, Mich., en route to California; Mrs. J. C. Rennison, Sioux City, la.; Carl Hagemeyer, Paola, Kan.; Frank Stuppy, St. Joseph, Mo.; James J. Karins, of H. A. Dreer, Inc., Philadelphia; C. F. Edgar, of the Mc- Callum Co., Pittsburgh; George Hamp- ton, of J. G. Neidinger Co., Philadel- phia; Martin Reukauf, of H. Bayers- dorfer & Co., Philadelphia; Roy Murray, Olathe, Kan. Miss Nettie Seymour, of the W. L. Rock Flower Co., has been ill for sev- eral days. A. Newell has recovered from an at- tack of influenza and is able to be downtown, although still weak. Samuel Murray had a dinner decora- tion one night last week for which hd used oncidiums. Premier roses and heather in striking effects. T. J. Noll has returned from two weeks' visit in Michigan. His sister, Mrs. Max Chandler, of Jerome, Mich., who has been quite ill, is improved.

FLORISTS* PUBLISHING CO. 530-60 Caxton Bldg. Chicago enough flowers to take care of business. Miss J. S. Murray has been receiving shipments of freesia and violets from California, both of which have come in perfect condition and have helped out through the shortage. The Muehlebach Flower Shop had a big decoration for the dinner for visi- tors to the tractor show. Adolph Mohr says his lilies are com- ing on in good shape for Easter and will be on time. He is selling a good many cinerarias and has a large quan- tity of Christmas stock for next year. The Rosery was prepared for St. Val- entine's day with a supply of corsages made up early in the day. They re- ceived a number of advance orders Thursday and Friday, February 12 and 13, most of which were for corsages. R. S. Brown has been ill for several days. E. A. Humfeld made a white blanket of roses and sweet peas for the casket of C. C. Chiles. This blanket was one of a number of orders that Mr. Humfeld liad for .this funeral. A. F. Barbe has been cutting carna- tions in the bud in order to get enough flowers for his trade. Charles Robinson, formerly with the Apollo Flower Shop, is now with the Moseley Floral Co. J. G. Eggleston had about fifty calls for sweet peas and other cut flowers, Friday, February 13, none of which he could fill, as he had sold all of his peas the day before. Some persevering cus- tomers called five or six times and one even wanted to know if Mr. Eggles- ton wouldn't watch the blooms and cut them if they came out. J. F. K. L. G. Johnston has bought land in this city and expects to start this season by growing annuals for the local trade. He was formerly located in southern California and grew for the Los Angeles trade, but says that the cheap Japanese labor put him out of business. BOSTON. The Market. Considering the serious disarrange- ment resulting from the snow storms and blockades, business has held up well. Even at the beginning of this week, train service had not reached normal and some of the branch railroad lines were still snowed up. In its effect on the railroads the storm of February 5 was even more paralyzing than that of November, 1898, since mild weather fol- lowed the earlier storm and soon melted the snow. An additional snowfall of six inches February 13 did not improve matters, but the worst is believed to be over. Roses continue in a strong position. There is not much call for American Beauties, but hybrid teas are in good demand, with a specially strong call for Ophelia, Ward and reds. The lack of sunshine has prevented a heavy cut of roses. Carnations have shown no de- cline, still selling at from $10 to $15 per hundred, and the quality is of the best. Violets are somewhat more abun- dant. Sweet peas are coming in quite freely and the best sell as high as $5 and $6 per hundred. Narcissi are more abundant, but the prices hold up well. Tulips are not yet particularly plenti- ful; La Reine, White Hawk, Yellow Prince and Prosperity are most in evi- dence. Some fine mignonette is coming in and snapdragons are improving. Myosotis was in fair demand for St. Valentine's day; so were English polyanthus and primroses. Stevia has passed, but it is not missed, as there are now more flow- ers to take its place. Acacia Baileyana and A. pubescens sell at $3 per bunch. Cattleyas are plentiful. A few gar- denias and some valley are seen. Lilies and callas are both in good supply. As- paragus moves better with the passing of stevia. St. Valentine's day business was the best that Boston ever had. February 13 snow fell all day, but Saturday was clear and pleasant and all the stores did a big business. Club Meeting. A driving snow storm and blockaded roads were hardly conducive to a suc- cessful carnation night at the meeting of the Boston Gardeners' and Florists' Club February lb. Only fifty members were present, the smallest attendance in a dozen years. Five new members were elected. It was reported that tickets were selling at a lively rate for the dance and buffet lunch, February 17.

Strout came from Bid- deford, Me., with handsome vases of Maine Sunshine, which was awarded a report of merit, and White Delight, which received honorable mention. These two varieties will be disseminated next season. William C. Rust showed a magnificent vase of Laddie, awarded a cultural certificate. Edward Winkler had a nice vase of the ever popular Morning Glow, awarded honorable men- tion. C. J. McGregor & Sons, Newbury- port, showed their new crimson seedling, Ruth W. Somerby, which they will in- troduce next season. From James Wheeler came Godfrey callas of remarkable size, grown in solid beds. Mr. Wheeler has 4,000 planted in this way and finds them an inexpen- sive crop to care for and most profitable. A night temperature of 48 to 50 de- grees suits them. From Walter H. Gol- by came a fine selection of flowers, in- cluding nemesias, Myosotis Sutton's pot variety, Schizanthus Sutton's Pink, and Narcissus White Lady, Seagull, Barrii conspicuus, rugulosus and Golden Spur, awarded honorable mention. The T. J. Grey Co. received honorable men- tion for a representative collection of seed potatoes. C. S. Strout made an interesting ad- dress on the Chicago convention and discussed the merits of varieties seen there. He discussed the present whole- sale prices of carnations and disap- proved of the high prices asked. His policy had been to hold prices down as low as profits would permit in winter and hold up prices in warmer weather, rather than charge an extravagant fig- ure at this season. Retail florists in outside cities dependent on Boston for their supplies, he said, could not pay $15 to $18 per hundred for carna- tions and make any profit. Present conditions would simply force many to the wall. The present condition is un- healthy, hQ asserted, and it is time something was done toward stabilizing prices on carnations, so that retailers can make some profit. He advocated the use of a book for all carnation growers. He carried a small one in which he could tell in a moment what each variety grown had yielded in flowers and money each year. For instance, this season to date Snow White has given seventeen flowers per foot at an average price of $10 per hundred; Maine Sunshine, seven flowers, and Laddie, three, at an average of $25 per hundred. He tried to produce some fancy varieties and more of others which were free bloomers. Pink De- light with him was a steady but not heavy cropper. He always aimed to sell reasonably to those outside his own city, as he was largely dependent on them later in the season. He commended the great work being done by the Dor- ners in carnations and said they had some excellent salmons, smaller, but much freer, than Laddie. Gustave Thommen followed Mr. Strout with an interesting talk on the benefits of oil heating as proved at the M. E. Moore range, at Arlington, where half the area of 150,000 feet of glass is heated with oil much more economically than with coal. He later discussed the help question and criticised florists for their slack bookkeeping methods. The income tax had proven a blessing to It is Necessary to eliminate overtime costs in printing The Review. Advertisers are urged to send in copy on Thursday, Friday and Saturday whenever possible. If copy is not received until Tuesday we have to pay double for setting the type. many in showing them how little money they were earning. Refreshments were served at the close of the meeting and the cakes, specially made for the occasion by Mrs. W. H. Judd, were much appreciated. Various Notes. William Sim has brought action against the state for $6,000 damages as a result of the corn borer campaign waged last season. He had a large field of early sweet corn which an inspector condemned and ordered him to plow up. Mr. Sim promptly complied. A day later another inspector called and said he need not plow Wie field up, as there seemed no danger from the borer. Other growers who had delayed their plowing suffered no loss. At Thos. F. Galvin's Back Bay and Park street stores St. Valentine's day business broke all records. Funeral work has been heavy of late. E. J. Ahearn, of Wellesley, one of our leading marguerite specialists, was unfortunate enough to lose a large house of thess flowers from the weight of snow February 5. C. J. McGregor & Son, of Newburyport, lost a house of carnations during the same storm. At Penn's, St. Valentine's day busi- ness went far ahead of all previous rec- ords. Large, telling ads in the Boston papers brought an avalanche of orders. Owing to the blockaded streets, de- livery was difficult. Automobiles used the cleared streets and fifty boys were hired to make deliveries on streets still impassable to automobiles. Some remarkably fine mignonette is coming in from Donald Carmichael, Wellesley, and W. R. Nicholson, Fram- ingham. B. A. Snyder & Co. report a good ship- ping trade. Customers at a distance continue to buy freely in spite of high prices. At Hamlin's, in the Little building, a fine St. Valentine's dav business was done, sweet peas, violets, primroses, pansies, roses and orchids being special favorites. The next meeting of the Boston Flo- rists' Association will be held March 2. The wholesalers will present their case to the meeting. The continued high price of flowers is forcing some of the smaller retailers to the wall. This is most unfortunate, as the class of patrons frequenting these small stores rarely venture inside the mor« pretentious ones. A. C. Burrage will make another large exhibit of orchids in Horticultural hall Febrwary 28. The annual winter lecture course will start the same afternoon. These orchid exhibits will hereafter be open on Sunday afternoons in addition to Saturdays. The local soft coal situation is seri- ous and as critical as at any time dur- ing the war. The inducements to ex- port coal at higher prices than can be obtained in the domestic market is one cause. The tremendous snow blockades are another serious factor. Some green- housemen are reported to have little sup- ply on hand. Ten days after the snow blockade started some towns within eighteen miles of Bostpn were still without rail- road service. Paine Bros, and Peter Hylen, of Randolph, large bulb special- ists, were unable to ship at all for sev- eral days and even February 16 had not secured normal train service. William Gillson, head salesman for Thomas Roland, was back on duty again February 16 after several weeks of sickness. W. N. C. WASHINGTON, D. 0. The Market. Weather conditions were better last week and the supply of stock has in- creased. The demand still exceeds the supply and all stock is cleaned up at good prices. The St. Valentine's day demand was large and the wholesalers faced a hard problem in dividing up the stock. The growers were called upon frequently during the final rush to hurry in with anything they might have. Various Notes. Z. D. Blackistone had an attractive St. Valentine's day display. The win- dow was cleverly arranged, with a large heart in the center. George C. Shaffer was unusually busy with St. Valentine's day orders, and his entire floor was covered with boxes ready for delivery. G. V. S. Ellsworth, Kan. — Roth & Spicer have taken over the cut flower business of William Macaulay, who died recently. Cambridge, O. — Fred W. Arnold has been kept exceptionally busy of late while his grower was down with the flu. Hamilton, O. — Rudolph Bock has taken over the old Roquet greenhouses, on Fair avenue, which he opened Feb- ruary 2. Mr. Bock recently returned after eighteen months' service in the Seventh Machine Gun Battalion, with the Third Division, overseas. He has had twelve years' experience in green- house work, having been with some of the largest growers in the country. 24 The Florists^ Review Fbbbuaby 19, 1920 m Eatabllsheil, 1897, bjQ.Jj. GRANT.

A RISE in freight rates approximating twenty-five per cent is among the early probabilities. Lent has not been a welcome season for retailers in years past, but this year it may be. The railroad strike is averted, or at least postponed. One worry is removed for a time. Can you see and count your lily buds todav? If not, you would better push a little harder or you won't make Easter. With Easter April 4 and Mothers' lay May 9, the test of the stability of the flower business will come in the in- tervening weeks. Forty days from next Wednesday, February 25, Easter will be with us. Wonder if flowers will be scarce in Lent his year? If they are, it will be the irst time. Business is a healthy pursuit, but few florists are in business for their health. They are in it to sell their services, for which they should get what those services are worth. When one picks up a copy of The Review of a year ago he realizes more accurately what progress it has made. The Review is the paper that has grown with the trade. It is reported one greenhouse mate- rial concern, anticipating a record season, some time ago acquired options at the factories on 15,000 boxes of greenhouse glass. Always put street addresses on the things you send by mail, express or tele- graph. In the present state of affairs the postoflSce, particularly, returns to the sender large quantities of matter lack ing street address which would have been delivered promptly under the old order of things. The Pacific Coast Department is be- coming one of the most interesting fea- tures of The Review. Many new things have come from the coast and many oth- ers will come, because trade interests there are just entering upon that stage of development which will be felt throughout the country. It will pay to watch the Pacific Coast Department. Few of us are pleased with the con- tinuous rise in prices, but none of us will be pleased when prices begin to fall, because that will not be until there is unemployment. It would be a mistake to go too fast in the matter of advancing prices, but any florist who grows really good stock can get profitable prices if he asks just a little more and then again a little more until he has worked his trade up to the necessary level. Florists who plant soft-wooded stock in the busy spring miss a fine chance if they do not plant hard-wooded stock in the quiet autumn. Take orders all sum- mer and fill them in the fall. Get ready for it now by putting out some sample shrubs on your own place this spring. The man who advertises "cash with order" and gets more orders than he can fill, need look for little sympathy if he holds the checks. There is only one course to pursue when a man receives money for which he cannot send the goods. It is to practice the golden rule. Large growers vexed with the unskilled help problem find a little hope in the report that immigration showed an in- crease last year, small though it was. Statisticians have little expectation of a cessation of labor scarcity till foreigners come in again as they did before the war. Acting on a suggestion in these columns, a subscriber investigated in his local postoffice and found that the mail sacks containing his Review reached that postoffice on Friday, but often lay there unopened until the following Monday or Tuesday. A chat witti the postmaster fixed it up so that city now gets its Re- views delivered promptly. Suppose you try it. A SUPEBFLUOUS HOLIDAY. Holidays are of particular value to the florist because they furnish occa- sions for creating an additional de- mand for flowers. Under ordinary cir- cumstances that additional demand is much welcomed by the florist, bringing him, as it does, increased business at good prices. For that reason the trade has made flower days out of certain dates on the calendar, one of them St. Valentine's day. This year, however, the efforts of the florists to create additional business were not great, nor, in most cities, were they needed. Retailers have had all the orders they could find flowers for in most cases. Additional help and ad- ditional flowers were wanted more than additional demand. The prevalent prosperity created a great many valen- tine orders for florists on top of the trade caused by the flu. Retailers who did advertise for St. Valentine's day found more business on their hands tiian they could comfortably take care of. In Milwaukee, where an increased supply of stock seemed to warrant the advertising committee's use of the newspapers for the holiday, the result- ing business was characterized as "like a small Easter." The zero weather that hit a good many centers St. Valentine's day and the heavy snow in the east made de- liveries a difficult task, also. So, what- ever this day brought in additional business to the retailers, they fully earned by the efforts to handle it. Of course, stock is expected to be more plentiful by Easter, though indi- cations are that there will be none too much under any circumstances. If the wave of sickness will have passed by that date, florists may be able to handle the business on that day. But if that demand should still be of some strength, stock will be all too scarce. It's but a short time till the big day. Last week's holiday should warn everyone to get all the stock possible ready for April 4. LOOKING AHEAD. Every grower must look into the fu- ture to make the most of opportunities as they come. Today he must look pretty far ahead, for what was once a long time is now a brief space, so fast is the trade advancing. The prosperity that is responsible for part of today's flower buying may not endure forever, but no one, even the economic prog- nosticators, see the top of the hill and the down-slope yet. The advertising campaign is like a snowball growing more rapidly as it rolls along; the mo- mentum at present will be surpassed even if the rate of acceleration is not increased. In addition, local coopera- tive campaigns are being organized in a number of cities to ward off the spring and autumn gluts. Though the flu will, we hope, soon be over, the other factors that augment the demand for flowers are going to work more strongly. Under the circumstances, the grower will seek to increase his production. For this he must look ahead, too. For the greenhouse builders are booking orders far ahead. Materials cannot be obtained on short notice. All lines of manufacture, from the steel mills down, seem to be working to capacity, filling the orders as they come, with a slight preference for those that are largest, easiest and most profitable. For that reason all lines that supply the florists' trade must order far ahead in order to meet the needs of a later date. The sure way to be certain of profits when they are to be had is to plan far enough in advance to be ready for the occasion. BRIEF ANSWERS. D. F. C, Colo.— Don't try to pinch the lilies. EASTEBN BEADEBS, NOTE! Numerous as the users of Classified ads in The Review have become, there still are many hundreds of other florists who could use them profitably. And at present any florist who has good stock he does not need for his local trade is conferring a benefit on others in the business by advertising his surplus. Particularly in the east, there are many florists, relying principally on local de- mand, who would be serving the trade as well as making a profit for them- selves by offering some of their stock in the Classified section of The Review. It works like this: Tlie little ads in The Review bring (rood re- sults.— Hugo Kind, Hammonton, N. J., February 10. 1920.

Habermelil. Just one week ago Ed Habermehl was talking of the bright prospects for next season. Full of life and vigor, he pictured what a wonderful season it will be in floral decorations. Today he lies quietly at rest, his work here fin- ished. It is so sudden. It seems past belief. Taken from our midst at a moment's notice in the prime of man- hood, the intense sadness of it all is well-nigh overpowering. God's will be done. Edward W. Habermehl died Wednes- day, February 11, at his home, 2105 Diamond street, Philadelphia, of double pneumonia, after a few days' illness. The street was profoundly moved by the death of Mr. Habermehl. Mark P. Mills said: "He was our best decora- tor and the best judge of plants among our retailers." Edwin J. Fancourt said: "I have seen many decorations outside of Philadelphia. None could equal those put up here by the Habermehls." Hajry Bayersdorfer said: "He did his share of the big things done by his firm." Edward Reid said: "I have known him for thirty years and I con- sider it an honor to belong to the pro- fession to which he belonged." Alvah R. Jones said: "In his business deal- ings he' was always a courteous gentle- man. ' ' The firm of J. J. Habermehl 's Sons consisted of two brothers, John P. and Edward W. Habermehl. The present generation first knew them when they were on the south side of Diamond street. This ground was sold to William M. Singerly and a fine store and green- houses were built on their present lot at the northeast corner of Twenty- second and Diamond streets. Here they conducted a general retail florists' busi- ness and were recognized as the leading uptown florists in Philadelphia. Grad- ually the firm went more and more into decorations, adding one after another the accessories now considered indis- pensable by the first-class decorator. They could successfully handle ex- tremely large decorations. This class of work narrowed down to two firms, the Grahams and the Habermehls. To enlarge their field the Habermehls, who were in search of a downtown store, leased the flower shop in the Bellevue-Stratford hotel before it was completed. This business stroke was most successful. Founders ' week fol- lowed, when the Habermehls took the entire contract for decorations for the city, a gigantic undertaking requiring six months' preparation with a small army of assistants. This work won their fame. After the withdrawal of the Gra- liams from the field of decorations. William Graham became decorator foT the Habermehls and on his departure for Chicago Edward Habermehl under- took the work himself. It was in this branch of his firm's business that he made his mark. He was a hard worker, with a vast capacity for detail. The things he undertook he carried out thoroughly, always aiming that his work excel. It has been my privilege to see eight or ten of Ed Habermehl 's best decorations. I have marveled at the rapid advance made in the art. The material used was always first-class. It was selected with judgment and with taste. It was extremely well put to- gether. The effect was always finished to the smallest detail. The work was never late. Just think what that means, the careful preparation, the early hours and the late hours, the self-denial, the resourcefulness. There is one other factor in the success of the brothers Habermehl that has an especial bearing on the business life of Edward Haber- mehl; that is the demonstrating de- partment. When a ball was to be given the host usually named the place where it was to be given, the amount to be spent and what was expected. From this often hazy outline a plan in water colors was prepared, showing exactly what could be done for the amount pro- posed. Another plan was also pre- pared showing how this plan might be improved upon and what it would cost. This always resulted in a better under- standing and frequently in much finer decorations than were originally in- tended. Ed Habermehl was laid at rest Sat- urday morning, February 14. He was 52 years of age. Phil. Edward Lennon. Edward Lennon died suddenly at his home, 38 Weaver avenue, Newport, B. I., Monday, February 9. He was one of the best known of the old-time gar- deners in Newport and was employed for a number of years by the late Com- modore William Edgar on his estate on, the Old Beach road, now occupied by his daughter. Miss Lucille Edgar. He was a devout churchman at St. Mary's parish. He is survived by two sons, of Newport, and a daughter, in Boston. Willard L. Wyckoff. Willard L. Wyckoff, of Chagrin Falls, O., died Friday, February 13, of influ- enza. The funeral was held the follow- ing Sunday at the residence. His widow was well known to the trade, before her marriage, as Miss Grace Hunt. INDIANAPOLIS, IND. The Market. The business on St. Valentine's day was unusually heavy this year, floral valentines being more in demand than ever. The only drawback was the acute scarcity of stock. Sweet peas, the usual leaders at this time, were limited and the supply was soon exhausted. Freesias, violets and other small flowers were rapid sellers. Roses were espe- cially scarce and high in price. Carna- tions were in good demand. Baskets, with both cut flowers and plants, sold well. Plants were particularly good property. Cyclamens and primroses were leaders in this line, although be- ijonias, daffodils, hyacinths and ferns were also shown. The market continues extremely tight. A few new varieties are seen, but these are just beginning to come in and, as yet, are meager. This is particularly true of hyacinths, jonquils and daffo- dils; the latter are bringing $10 per hundred wholesale and $2.50 per dozen retail, perhaps the highest price ever obtained for them in this vicinity. Roses are available in limited supply, bringing from $12 to $50 per hundred. Carnations are selling at $12 and $15 per hundred. Sweet peas and freesias are especially popular and high-priced; the former bring $3 per hundred stems, while the latter vary in price according to quality. The demand has been strong; there has been a great deal of sickness and the death rate has been unusually heavy. Funeral work has been so rushing that some of the stores had only enough flowers to fill these orders and were forced to disappoint many who wished flowers for other purposes. Various Notes. While driving the delivery car of Clarence R. Greene recently, the chauf- feur narrowly escaped injury in an ac- cident, in which the car was ditched and almost demolished. D. L. Fern, representing the A. L. Randall Co., Chicago, and J. J. Karins, with Henry A. Dreer, Inc., Philadel- phia, called on the trade last week. E. E. T. OHIOAOO. The Market. Conditions remain practically un- changed; the market is not yet able to fill all orders, although no regular buyer goes without part of his needs. Last week proved another record- breaker for the Chicago market. There are wholesale houses reporting a larger week's business than at Christmas, un- believable as it may seem. The ex- planation lies in the fact that the mar- ket was extremely active and exceed- ingly strong all through the week, with two remarkably heavy days just before St. Valentine's. The Thursday and Friday business not only exceeded everything heretofore known for St. Valentine's day, but not so long ago would have constituted a good Christ- mas or Easter business. Prices ad- vanced slightly as St. Valentine's day approached. Everything cleaned up with the exception of violets. There was a shortage of roses and carnations, just as there has been for weeks, and some increase in sweet peas and bulbous stock did not serve to ease the situa- tion. There was an abundance of free- sia, so that any florist who could use this flower got all he wanted. Cattleyas also were equal to the demand. The only surplus was of violets. There was a bad smash in this department. Early last week growers in Rhinebeck tele- graphed that the storms had interfered with their shipments and some of them added that there would not be many violets for Chicago for St. Valentine's day. The result was that the Chicago wholesalers either declined violet orders or put the price so high that the orders were small. Then the Rhinebeck grow- ers shipped practically their whole week's pick to this market! The reason assigned is that the great snow storm had resulted in an embargo on New York city; being shut out, or practi- cally shut out from that market, most of the week's pick, instead of only a small part of it, was sent to Chicago. It took this market unawares. No doubt the violets could have been sold at fair prices if there had been advance information of their coming, but all the advance information was the other way. The result was that the buyers made their own prices and it was not possible to sell all the stock at any price. [Continued on page 30.

There was no change in the prices of the shorter grades of roses, but the longer grades went down a little. Carnations also slipped back to where they were before the last advance. There was no spe- cial increase in the supply, weather conditions being such that production was checked, as it always is in a spell of zero temperature. But there has been an increase in the supply of sweet peas and of bulbous stock. There are few tulips this year, many growers not having cared to run the risks incident to the high cost of bulbs.

Frank Schramm's Expansion. Frank Schramm, at Crystal Lake, 111., has placed an order, with the American Greenhouse Manufacturing Co., for ma- terial for two houses, each 43x225, which will double his bench space. The new glass is to be planted, as soon as possible, to Eussell and Milady, as the older houses are. It is reported that James Spandikow has sold his stock interest in the May- wood company with which his name is associated, resigned his position as man- ager of the greenhouses, to take effect February 29, and March 1 will return to Mr. Schramm, a contract for a partner- ship having been signed. Mr. Spandikow made his reputation as a rose grower while in Mr. Schramm 's employment. It has been reported, and confirmed to the present writer by both Mr. Schramm and Mr. Spandikow, that in the last ten months of Mr. Spandikow 's connection there Mr. Schramm's gross sales averaged $2.51 per plant for Russell and $3.51 per plant for Milady; that in the next two months the cut averaged 20 cents per plant, with the result that for the year ended June 30, 1919, Mr. Schramm's gross takings averaged $2.71 per plant for Russell and $3.71 per plant for Milady. The Chicago Flower Growers' Association, which sold the stock, also has confirmed these figures. In expla- nation of the $1 per plant difference in the two varieties it was stated that the Milady plants were all in their second year, while a considerable part of the Russell was young stock, benched just before the year opened. All Is Not CJold that Glitters. In spite of the well known fact that supply and demand govern wholesale prices, there always is complaint when values go temporarily above accustomed levels. The complaint has been much less during the last month than it has been under less provocative conditions in other seasons, but still there is com- plaint. It is said, for instance, that the prices of the early bulbous flowers have not been justified. They have not been higher, relatively, than the prices Kennicott Bros. Co.

Wholesale Dealers in Cut Flowers 160 North Wabash Ave. CHICAGO of roses or carnations and not so high as the December and January prices of cattleyas, but perhaps the prices of these flowers have been so long maintained they no longer seem out of line. In this connection it is interesting to note that, while the forcers of bulbs are doing well, their receipts are not all sub- jeet to the income tax. For instance, take the experience of Sam Pearce, known as among the most successful of bulb forcers. Mr. Pearce does not fur- nish these facts, or speak of the matter at all, but they are well known to many. In the first place, this grower invested $30,000 in bulbs four months or more before he cut a flower. How many re- tailers would have been willing to com- mit themselves to that extent under the conditions which prevailed last summer and autumn f The quarantine which took effect last summer shuts out bulbs of Iris tingitana, which the retailers have found extremely useful in recent years. So Mr. Pearce took a chance; just before the quarantine went into effect he brought in $1,400 worth of these bulky bulbs. He gave them space and the best of care for seven months and then he gave them up— he did not cut a dozen flowers. Nor did he cut a flower from any one of 20,000 Yellow Prince tulips. Many of the Paper Whites were blind, the first batch of jonquils ditto. On the other items the loss has run from ten to fifteen per cent. If this has been the experience of one of the most successful forcers, what has happened with growers less well equipped or skillful! Is their reward out of proportion to their risk even in this season of unexpectedly strong de- mand f Bents and Benters. As an example of what is happening in the wholesale cut flower district, the concerns which have space on the sec* ond floor of the Atlas block with leases expiring May 1 have been notified that renewals will be made at rentals which approximate $1.30 per square foot. This is an advance of from forty to seventy per cent. There are eighteen trade con- cerns in this building. Of these twelve are on the second floor, three in the basement and three on the street floor. y^fr^'f/C'^ ^, "iv i^>" . -V "■• 'V • ■ 7>BBDABT 19. 1920 The Florists^ Review ^m Florists' Refrigerators We manufacture, in our own plant, a complete line of florists' refrigerators.

Of the eighteen concerns nine are wholesale, seven are wholesale and retail, one is a seed store and one deals in artificial material. All the leases have been for short terms, as rebuilding has been in prospect. In 36 The Rorists^ Review Fbbbuabt 19, 1920 some of the neighboring buildings hous- ing florists long term leases have been made, but as these expire correspond- ing advances are being made. The tenants of the two buildings on Wabash avenue at the northeast corner of Bandolph street have been notified to vacate^ as demolition will start at midnight April 30, a skyscraper to be erected. The trade firms affected are Percy Jones, Inc., and A. L. Vaughan & Co. H. Van Gelder, president of the Jones company, long ago protected that concern by acquiring space in the Atlas block, where the sales headquarters has been located for nearly a year, but he has a large stock of florists' supplies stored in the basement and on the sec- ond floor of one of the buildings to be demolished. If he can not find other convenient storage space he will have a clearing sale. A. L. Vaughan & Co. Jiave not yet announced their plans. Mr. Wienhoeber's Deal. In The Eeview last week it was re- I>orted that E. Wienhoeber had sold his home property in Highland Park and bought a smaller place for himself and his daughter, in Winnetka. The deal got' into the real estate news of the Sunday papers February 15. The Tribune said of it: "On the north shore Thomas J. Byrne bought the north thirteen acres of Ernst Wienhoeber's 28-acre tract in High- land Park on Green Bay road over- looking the Skokie valley and just east of the Bob-o-Link Golf Club. There is a 10-room residence. The price re- ported by Murray & Terry, brokers, was $45,000. The same firm sold to Ernst Wienhoeber the residence of Samuel H. Gereley, of Winnetka, in Bryant ave- nue, 200 feet south of Lloyd place, lot 85x190, for a reported consideration of $28,000. ' ' Various Notes. Albert Koehler, secretary and treas- urer of the American Bulb Co., left for New York Tuesday, and February 21 will sail for Rotterdam, intending to spend four months looking after the company's interests in Holland, France, Italy and England. The latest addi- tion to the A. B. C. staff of salesmen is Ouy W. French, who is widely known in the trade, first as in charge of the «arnation department of Poehlmann Bros. Co., later a member of the firm of Trench & Salm, and for his activities in many trade organizations. He was a member of the 8. A. F. committee which started the national publicity campaign and is at present chairman of the good- of-the-club committee, in charge of most of the activities of the Chicago Florists' Club. Since retiring from the firm of French & Salm Mr. French has been a member of the sales staff of the A. L. Randall Co. The charter of the Meyer & Dramm Co., Elmhurat, has been amended to change the name of the corporation, which now is Dramm Greenhouses, Inc. H. J. Corfield has started in business for himself, as landscape architect and dealer in seeds, bulbs, plants and nurs- «ry stock, at room 412 Standard Trust building. The news which came out last week concerning the ordinance pending in the city council, which would impose a license fee of $1,500 on anyone who buys coal by the carload and hauls it through the streets, seems to have provoked a storm of protest.

Flowers have bloomed more freely during the second week in February than at any time since Christmas. They have all been sold at Christmas prices and many more could have been used. Parties took some, home brightening took some, St. Valentine's day took some, but the real strength of the de- mand was due, alas, to the epidemic of pneumonia. They call it grip and say it is not to be compared in severity with the influenza that raged sixteen months ago, yet it is so severe that flowers are more used for sad than for joyful occa- sions in the height of the pre-Lenten rush. Sweet peas, Golden Spur narcissi and roses are more plentiful. There are a few more carnations and callas. Violets were short of the demand early in the week, but became too plentiful St. Val- entine 's day. The singles did well then, but in New York were in oversupply. It seems hard to induce the buyers to take up valley again at the higher price made necessary by the higher cost. The grip is affecting shipping quite as much as it does local orders. Telegrams from distant points for quantities of flowers for funerals are not infrequent. There is a slight decrease in the demand for the fancy long-stemmed roses, due pos- sibly to the greater number of spring flowers. Tulips have come, notably in double varieties, Murillo and Couronne d'Or. There are a few cowslips. The volume of business for the first half of February far exceeds that of the same fortnight one year ago. March 2. Hugo Niessen, chairman of the essay committee of the Florists' Club, announces that J. Otto Thilow, secre- tary of Henry A.

The supply in roses was not equal to the demand and to fill orders, even for the local trade, was out of the question. In carnations, the market was better than it has been for many weeks, while the price remained at $18 to $20 per hundred, with extra fancy at $25. The market cleared daily. It is predicted that these will be quite plentiful in the next ten days and a big drop in prices is looked for. Violets were good all the week. A big crop of sweet peas is looked for, as the supply now is heavy and all our local growers have planted heavily. Valley has dropped in price to $10 per hundred, with extra fancy at $12. Bulbous stock arrives heavily, while jonquils, tulips, Von Sion, Paper Whites, etc., clean up well. Present indications are for a heavy crop in all seasonable flowers soon. Club Meeting. The St. Louis Florists' Club held its regular monthly meeting, February 12, in the salesrooms of the Windier Wholesale Floral Co. The meeting was not well attended, owing to the fact that many were sick. When President Hummert called the meeting to order, there were thirty- five members in attendance. The report of L. J. Bourdet, chairman of the publicity committee, was inter- esting. He showed the members what the committee had done for St. Valen- tine 's day advertising and what is being done to advertise Easter. Frank Windier, vice-president of the Missouri State Florists' Association, re- ported that efforts are being made to hold a meeting of the association in St. Louis, May 15 and 16. Applications for membcrsliip were presented by the following: Peter Pfander, Joseph Braun, George Kuehner, Joseph Krager and Martin Ude. The secretary then road the names of forty-four applicants for member- ship presented at the last meeting and, as the committee reported favorably on all the applicants, the secretary cast the ballot for the members present. All delinquent members were given until the next meeting before being dropped from the rolls of membership. 44 The Florists' Review Fbbboabt 19, 1020 ?nRONA FLOWER BQXf^ ^P^^i^J^ ^ K«pr«a«Htatlvc> M.

J. F. Ammann also spoke and com- mented upon the premium list and made a motion that the club approve of the show and do all in its power to make it a success. He also suggested that a committee be appointed to work with the show committee. The following members were appoint- ed to work with the show committee: A. H. Hummert, chairman; L. J. Bour- det, W. A. Rowe, F, C. Weber, Carl Beyer and J. J. Beneke. The following were recommended as judges for the show: F. J. Fillmore, Fred H. Weber and W. J. Pitcher. F. J. Fillmore, L. J. Bourdet and J. J. Beneke were appointed a committee to draft resolutions on the death of Fred C. Weber. Flowers were ordered sent to Joseph Witek, who is ill. A rising vote of thanks was given to the Windier Wholesale Floral Co. for the afternoon's entertainment. J. F. Ammann was called upon for a talk on the recent meetings of the American Carnation Society, at Chi- cago, and the S. A. F. directors' meet- ing, at Cleveland, also on the new grow- ers' association.

Library hall Wednesday, February 18. Eric Johnson and Frank Johnson, of the A. L. Eandall Co., Chicago, spent February 9 and 10 here with Harry Hall, the local representative. Their visit here was for the purpose of estab- lishing a factory in St. Louis for the manufacturing of florists' baskets and wicker furniture. Among those who have been reported on the sick list during the last week were: J. J. Windier, George Kuehner, Fred Herman and Fred Strohmeyer. Joseph Witek was taken home from the hospital last week and expects to be back attending to business soon. The automobile show decorations, at Exhibition hall, were furnished by Schaefifer & Steitz, of Vandervoort 's floral department. The work was high- ly commended by the management. Be- sides the decorations of the hall, they also furnished all decorations of the booths of all exhibitors, under the per- sonal supervision of Julius Schaeffer. The following east side florists were in the city last week: Matthew Schoen- berger, L. Dintelmann, W. E. Ogle and A. G. Fehr, of Belleville, HI.; J. F. Ammann and Henry Blixen, of Ed- wardsville, HI., and George Madsen, of Alton, HI. All attended the club meet- ing, February 12. J. J. Karins, representing Henry A. Dreer, Inc., and George Hampton, of the J. G. Neidinger Co., Philadelphia, spent a few days last week in St. Looii eaUing on the trade. Orimm & Gorly report that St. Val- entine's day business was much larger than last year. A. G.

The "Say It with Flowers" bowling league held its weekly tournament, February 11. The Boses, who are now cine games in the lead, won all three of their games from the Carnations. The Daisies moved up from last place by winning two games from the Sweet Peas. President Hummert, of the Florists' Club, rolled his first games as a member of the Sweet Peas. Capt. Kuehner, of the Boses, and J. J. Wind- ier, of the Daisies, were absent, owing to sickness. J. J. B. Frank J. Gilk has opened a retail store at 4961 Kemper park. NEW TOBK. The Market. With transportation facilities, which were seriously hampered by the recent storm, somewhat improved, the market is better supplied with cut flowers.

Tulips also were subject to a decline in value. Lilies of the valley moved well and there were plenty of them. Violets met the usual demand, as did orchids, and, under the conditions, prices were rea- sonable. At the beginning of this week the market was fairly welh supplied and demand near normal. American Beauty roses are not at all plentiful, although sufficient to meet the demand at pres- ent prices, which are still on a high plane. Hybrid teas are not abundant and the shortage on the lower grades continues. The quality of arrivals in general is good. Premier is in excellent shape and Sunburst is showing splendid color. The generous supply of long- stemmed flowers moves a little slowly and concessions occasionally are made to accelerate movement. The supply of caraations is heavier than it has been all season, but prices are keeping up fairly well, although the high figures of the last few weeks are not likely to prevail. With the brighter weather now with us, which should be more constant from now on, the cut should become larger every week, as every grower reports a good crop in sight. Laddie, when it is to be had, brings a little more than the ordi- nary varieties. There is a good supply of cattleyas, but the movement is slow and clear- ances are hard to make. The price range is from 15 cents to 75 cents, with most of the arrivals in the lower grades. There is a fair supply of cypripediums, which command $2 to $5 per dozen. Easter lilies are in somewhat better supply, but the prices remain the same. Lilies of the valley are in oversupply and move slowly at $1.50 to $8 per hundred sprays, with the lower grades predominating. There is a wealth of bulbous material and much remains unsold at the close of the day. Arrivals of tulips are par- ticularly heavy and there is no com- plaint as to quality. Paper Whites are also plentiful and move fairly well, as there is a large demand for funeral work. The supply of daffodils is in- creasing and there is an abundance of freesias of good quality. There is plenty of choice in the list of miscellaneous flowers arriving and GALAX FERNS LEUCOTHOE Latest Wholesale Prices F. O. B. Johnson City, Tenn.

If there is any florist who does not find business brisk it is because he has no stock or fails to offer it in the Clas- sified section of this paper. It works like this: The ad cleaned us out and we could haye sold more. As soon as we have something else to offer we will advertise It In The Review, you may be sure. — Bel Air Greenhouses, R.

AXELL, WHOLESALE COMMISSION FLORIST 463 Bosh St, San Fnuicisco, Calif. called on the trade in this city and Tacoma recently. SPOKANE, WASH. The Market. The continued dull weather has had a serious effect on the stock; in fact, Spokane was never so short of flowers before. The last of the chrysanthe- mums arrived last week. Bulbous stock is starting to arrive, but not in sufficient quantity to meet the demand. Potted tulips and hyacinths are to be seen and find a ready sale. Various Notes. A large number of the florists and their wives are on the sick list. The an- niial banquet was postponed on this ac- count. William Berry, of Donart's House of Flowers, has resigned. E. Hedger, of the Davenport Flower Shop, has bought an automobile. All flower shops have been busy this month with funeral work, the flu being the cause of most deaths at present. The Glenrose Greenhouses are send- ing in some fine Laddie, in spite of the fact that about all the help have been sick. H. E. Beimers has a fine window dis- play of cinerarias. The Spokane Florist Co. was handi- capped by the illness of most of its em- ployees and their families. H. H. SAN FRANCISCO, CAI.. The Market. The report comes from the local ship- ping establishments of a volume of busi- ness unprecedented in the history of the trade. Many of the San Francisco shippers say that they have never ex- perienced such a large St. Valentine's day business. Orders from the east were arriving in such quantities that it was extremely difficult to meet the de- mand. Flowers of all kinds were none too plentiful and the shortage of roses is still a noticeable factor in the busi- ness of the month. With the exception of one or two nurseries, which are now beginning to cut the second rose crop, growers can- not promise any large amount of cut stock until the end of February, or the first part of March. According to one of the prominent growers of this dis- trict, who recently made a trip through the central part of the state visiting the various nurseries, it will be at least DAFFODILS Dutch Hyacinths Roman Hyacinths Purity Freesias Narcissi and eversrthing in season P.

Various Notes. L. Boss is a recent addition to the sales force of the Hallawell Seed & Flower Co. Mr. Ross returned not long ago from overseas service and has been spending a few months in the northern part of the state. Mr. Hallawell states that business is flourishing in all lines. The weather is tempting just now to the gardener and quantities of bedding flowers are being sold as well as rose bushes and shrubs of all kinds. L. Piccetti, of the retail store of Chas. Navlet & Co., states that the force has been kept exceedingly busy with early planting stock. He says that the de- mand for rose bushes and fruit trees has been heavy this year; in fact, the state-wide shortage of fruit trees has caused considerable difficulty in filling orders. Gen. A. J. Gooch reported the heaviest St. Valentine's day shipping in the his- tory of the business and he had to use all the available stock with which to fill his orders. Enomoto & Co. were rushed with St. Valentine's day orders and shipped large quantities of spring flowers, in- cluding daffodils, Paper Whites, acacia and hyacinths. Mr. Enomoto states that carnations are being shipped suc- cessfully this year. A good crop is being cut from the Enomoto nurseries just now. Domoto Bros, report an excellent volume of shipping business. They are filling orders for acacia, daffodils, car- nations and giant willows in addition to the regular items. The nursery stock from the Elmhurst location is in fine shape. The Easter lily crop is showing splendid promise and they ex- pect to have a large stock of both cut lilies and potted stock. Mr. Domoto mentioned the favorable progress of potted hydrangeas and rhododendrons for Easter. The United Flower & Supply Co. re- ports good success with long-distance carnation shipments. Its St. Valen- tine's day business included large or- ders of carnations and spring flowers. J. A.

Sweet peas cleaned up on sight and realized from $3 to $4 per hundred. Carnations are still short of the demand, the quality being good. The rose cut is still limited. The de- mand for calla lilies has been good. Preesias have been moving well and a small quantity of valley has been avail- able. Calendulas and other novelties are in demand.

KANSAS CITY, MO. manager of the wholesale store of the J. M. Gasser Co., has left its employ. The influenza epidemic has increased the use of artificial flowers, as the stock of natural flowers in many stores gave out too soon. The flu is making many local florists short-handed at present. Albert Barber's store froze up last week. Several plants in the window and cut bulbous stock on the counter were frozen solid. W. F. B. Sheffield, HI. — Clarence L.

It is regretted that "lore do not appreciate the increased •lemand for flowers everywhere, which has come as a result of our publicity movement. Every florist in the land is interested in the successful issue of our campaign and is benefited by it. Yet how few are willing to help themselves by helping along the campaign 1 To date our results are due to the support that comes from less than ten per cent of the trade, men who have subscribed for the benefit of our industry generally, but who are more than satisfied with re- sults as they see them and particularly as they have noticed them in their own surroundings. It is these men who are in greater part bearing the expense of our work this year as far as our pub- licity committee has been able to carry it. Some Questions. Here are a few questions for non- subscribers to consider. They should consider them deeply, for surely they are sufficiently interesting from a business point of view. Are you not prepared to admit that publicity for flowers has been instru- mental in increasing the general de- mand for them? Are you not conscious of the fact that our slogan, ' ' Say It with Flowers, ' ' is exerting a tremendous influence among people who hitherto have not looked upon our products as a me- dium for the conveyance of sentiment f Are you not aware that through in- dividual display, magazine announce- ments and in various other ways, our slogan meets the eyes of millions of peo- ple each and every dayt CConUDued on page 68.] 66 The Rorists^ Review Febbuary 19, 1920 le^aph Dei^^iyH^epartmc The florists wbose cards appear on tbe paces oarrylnK tliia head, are prepared to fill ordera from other florists for local delivery on the usual basis.

Believed, if you thought success hard enough, you were a longways on the road towards achieving success. To him, thoughts became things. Became them, because he made them into things. Thinking about things; and doing the things we think about; are two distinct things. For example, all of us Florists agree that the fruit shops, and the gift shops, -and a lot of other kinds of shops; have dug into our steamer business. It's set a lot of us thinking. But what good is thinking, if you don't think success thoughts, of ways to overcome that shift in business. and set the thoughts at work? We have a parrot down in Southampton, that talks a lot, but luck comes to the enthusiastic thinker, who is never satisfied. Putting a steering wheel in your window, with a blackboard in the middle, giving the sailing dais of steamers, isn't all there s to getting the steamer business, The papers give lists of sailings, too; but it's no more an advertisement of flowers, than for fruit aTd books. A stamp costs 2 cents. Paper and envelopes, mayhap, 3 cents more. 10 cents at the outside will type or write it. 15 cents in all, for a letter. 15 cents, to land a 5, 10, 15 or 2 j dollar steamer basket. Send your letters to members of the family, or friends of the people you know are going traveling. When they are going, may not alwajs be so easy to find out, but there are ways to do it. It's put more steam into our steamer business.Sthan anything we can do. It can be made into one of the bipgest sides of the F. T. D, business. New York's Favorite Flower Shop Fifth Avenue at 58th Street pealed to the public, whose idoiis gener- ally connect suniiiier houses and b-^nches with the gardens of their dreams. Seventy-four trade exhibits have had space reserved for them and this num- ber will likely be increased, but only to the extent of space available. It will seem rather strange that the list of exhibitors does not include any house able to stage an exhibit of garden tools; that is, spades, forks, garden baskets, shears, flower cutters, trowels, markers and llic hundred and one things adapted to the use of gardeners of both sexes.

Mem'>er of the Florists' Telegrauh Delivery Association to start it; there is not a man in the retail end of the business who is not ready to do his part. Every one of them is beginning to realize that there is a great deal more in "Say It with Flow- ers" than just four words of the Eng- lish language. For instance, Mr. Detel, the advertising expert, in his speech compared it with two well known local slogans; here the three are: "Say It with Flowers," "Eat More Bread," "Send It to the Laundry." Is there any comparison? The Baltimore flo- rists think not. Dr. D. H. Griffith lectured on "Grow- ing Lily Bulbs in America." I have lis- tened to many a lecture in my time on trade subjects, but I have never heard one that created greater interest. It was not a case of just telling you how it was done, but Dr. Griffith demon- strated everything he said with lantern slides. I suppose he realized that most florists were from Missouri, for he was ready to show plants from the seed bed to those about to open and they were Kansas City, Mo. MEMBER F. T.

Various Notes. For the .last two weeks the staff of tlie S. S. Pennock Co. has been badly crippled. J. J. Perry, the manager, has been laid up with pneumonia, as has also his assistant, Ferd Gerth. They are both, however, well on the way to recovery and it is hoped they will soon be on their feet again. Another firm that was hit by the flu is that of Sieck & Glick. Both of the proprietors were ill at the same time. Mr. Sieck, however, was able to get down for a while each morning and, as there was not much to do in the after- noon, the firm managed to get along. Harry Gliok is still confined to his bed, altliough much improved. At the club meeting I had a long chat with my old friend, Adam Rapp. We wore talking over old times, when both of us had stalls in the Lexington Market. In those days Mr. Rapp grew the best geraniums in 4-inch pots that came into the city. He could always get 1.5 cents for his without any trouble. The rest of us were glad to get $1 per dozen and we could not get this until he had sold out ; such plants should bring 40 cents today. He says he is growing them just as good. But he has carna- tions for a winter crop now and he is just as good on carnations as on geraniums. Tate. PITTSBURGH, PA. The St. Valentine's day demand for both cut flowers and plants last Friday and Saturday was exceedingly great, notwithstanding the top-notch prices.

Turner conserva- tively modifies his statement by adding that, of course, the more acute condi- tion of labor shortage at present may tend to exaggerate the strenuous side. William Turner has especial reason to take the labor situation into considera- tion, inasmuch as he has been by far the hardest hit of anv of the florists BOSTON-BECKER'S Send us your telegrams Prompt serrice IN and ROUNDABOUT BOSTON.

During three days only one of his seven green- house men was able to be on the job and both the foreman, Dudley James, and Mrs. James were incapacitated at the same time with a form of the prev- alent disease. "While they are now able to be out, William Pugh and William R. Shackleford have come down with the same trouble. Thomas Lee, who has been a valuable member of Mr. Turner 's staflP for the last three years, has been confined in the Homeopathic hospital since shortly before Christmas as the result of an operation for appendicitis. He is improving rapidly now and ex- pects to be able to return home in a few days. Notwithstanding his unusual drawbacks from illness, Mr. Turner is displaying a fine lot of bulbous plants of his own production, the Paper White narcissi being especially noticeable. Miss Eleanor Craig, the bookkeeper for Miss Emma B. Maxwell's establish- ment, is confined to her home with an attack of grip. Just as soon as the weather condi- tions will permit, Harry J. Hamm will erect a greenhouse on his recently pur- chased property on Frankstown road, Penn township. The building will h% approximately seventy-five feet in length and will be surrounded by al- most an acre of ground, which will be devoted to the propagation of bulbous products. Mr. Hamm's mother, Mrs. Jacob M. Hamm, who has acted in the capacity of inside manager since the beginning of the illness of the late Allen Hamm, has been off duty for a week or more on account of illness. Meanwhile Mrs. Harry Hamm has been requisitioned into temporary service. Felix Donatelli has returned to the store of Miss Nellie G. King, of Home* wood and Hamilton avenues, following a two months' siege in the Municipal hospital vnth a severe attack of scarlet fever. Orders solicited for all parts of Ck)nDectlciit.

The wholesalers did a bigger business than last year, and while the increase in prices has a great deal to do with this result, still the volume of sales is greater. There was hardly an item that did not sell higher than last year. Growers report roses in great shape and good crops are predicted for the immediate future. The demand is still ahead of the supply in roses and a stiif market is the result.

Farmers' week opened with a rush at the New York State College of Ag- riculture, at Cornell University, Mon- day, February 9, and all the week there was a constant attendance of interested people at the greenhouses inspecting the displays and listening to lectures on floricultural subjects. The green- houses were filled with many attractive foliage and flowering plants; the ciner- arias, the primulas of all kinds and the Dutch bulbous stock were especially fine. The sweet pea house, in spite of the cloudy weather, offered a wonderful display of bloom and the many new va- rieties under tost made an instructive exhibit. A fine exhiV>it of floral decorations was prepared by the floricultural stu- dents the first two days of the week. The short-course students displayed their work Monday and the regular students Tuesday. E. A, Slattery, of W. J. Palmer & Son, Buffalo, N. Y., and Professor E. A. White supervised the work. The bouquets made up were of many kinds. Brides' and bridesmaids' bouquets of roses, sweet peas and maid- enhair fern were to be seen, also cor- sage and tiny colonial bouquets ar- ranged along one side of the labora- tory, which was tastefully decorated with southern smilax, hemlock and genistas. On the center tables were a large number of plant baskets filled with dracsrnas, primulas, tulips, hya- cinths, narcissi, ericas, ferns and many other foliage and flowering plants. Especially noticeable was the fine effect made by Erica President Carnot in a plant basket. One attractive basket decoration consisted of a calla lily. Primula malacoides and peperomia. Upstairs there was an interesting and instructive display of table decorations. One effective table had a centerpiece of Golden Spur narcissi. Possibly the most original was a valentine table, in the center of which was a heart-shaped basket of myosotis, with scarlet carna- tions thrust in at one side to represent the dart which is supposed to penetrate all hearts on St. Valentine's day. Lead- ing out from the centerpiece were red streamers bearing small hearts. Prim- DETROIT A^ICHICAISI Orders given best of care by these five F. T. D. Members J.

The weather has been, in general, fa- vorable during the last week, but a cold spell developed February 14, with a strong wind and snow storm, which drove the thermometer down around zero. Flowers were more plentiful, with both quality and price above normaL Business, however, was also above normal, as there were many funerals and St. Valentine's day proved to be better than ever before. The sale of pot plants is stimulated through the high prices of cut flowers. Primroses, cyclamens, begonias and bulbous stock are bringing splendid prices. Kentucky Society Meets. The Kentucky Florists' Society met February 11, at the store of the C. B. Thompson Floral Co., for its monthly meeting. The committee on by-laws read its report and a change in the by-laws was taken under consideration and carried over till the next meeting. Mrs. H.

Becesrt's Seed Store, Pittsburgh, Pa., reports that the mail order business is opening up well. The demand for flower seeds has so far been exceptionally heavy and many of the rarer varieties are already sold out. This firm has doubled its capacity for filling orders in the fiower seed department through the installation of a new set of Walker bins, which in- cludes an individual box for each im- portant class, and in some cases two or three, as needed, with a total of 760 bozea.

Orders from former retail customers for their Sterling brand seeds will be received henceforth only through dealers, according to an an- nouncement sent out last week. In stat- ing this decision, they said: "The demand for Sterling seeds and feeds has been growing so fast that changes in our system of operation have become imperative, making it uneconom- ical to attempt to handle retail business. "Moreover, our distribution through dealers has increased to the point where we are represented in practically every community west of the Great Lakes and the Mississippi river, and we feel that in this way our customers can be better and more quickly served at prices just as satisfactory as if they ordered direct from us." PBIOE OF BED OLOVEB. Considerable concern was felt last spring lest the high price of red clover would curtail the acreage sown, states the Market Beporter issued this week by the Department of Agriculture, but apparently the reduction in acreage from this cause was not so great as was supposed. Doubtless the greatly in- creased acreage of winter wheat, on which nearly five-sixths of the red clover seed annually is sown, the need for red clover to build up some of the farms, and the fact that prices were high for many other kinds of seed and for other important agricoltural prod* Tested Proven Seeds Early View of Our Trial Grounds Did you ever sow Peacock's Flower Seeds?

Will some or all of these same factors and others operate this year when the price of red clover seed is about forty per cent more than that of last yearf The prevailing high prices of several other kinds of field seeds, some of which have advanced in price more than has red clover, may help to answer this question.

SPEEDINQ SEED PBODUCTION. When an improved variety of seed is badly needed to make up a national shortage of a commodity, the natural increase is not always rapid enough. One way in which an unnatural speeding lip may be secured is shown by the work of the United States Department of Agriculture with flaxseed. Foreign sup- plies of flax coming into the United States were severely reduced during the war and an increase of flax acreage be- came imperative. A large number of pedigree selections and increased plats of the best varieties were grown during the summer of 1918 at the experiment station at East Lansing, Mich. In the fall of that year selections of seed of the various strains were taken to Porto Rico, and an increased crop was grown during the winter. The increased sup- ply of seed thus produced was brought baok to the United States in time for TROMP BROS.

' ' Of course it is much more refined and of a most delightful pale blue color. It is found in all the better Fifth Avenue shops and is sold at fabulously high prices. No one — and I asked every good professional man I know of — could give me the botanical name of the floJfcr, until I happened to see it growing, when I recognized i^,s one of the oldest annuals I know of. I do not believe that anyone should have a monopoly on what I call "Nature's noblest gift to mankind" and so I se- cured a big quantity of the seed absolutely fresh and guaran- teed to be the genuine article, and oflFer it herewith to the trade. Sown in February, flowers can be cut by May and a single crop lasts for two months, as only side shoots are cut. Will succeed best in 50-55 degrees temperature at night.

I highly recommend them. Maude Adanu (New Show Dahlia). A pure snowy white, very daintily overlaid and suffused the sweetest shade of rose-pink imagrin. able. It is the best of my introductions for florists' use. "Maude Adams" is the most prolific Dahlia of its color, being: more than twice as free-flowering as either "Nymphea" or "Sylvia." It has good stems and is an early Dahlia to blossom, continuing thruout the entire season. It has the necessary features that make it stand ■hipping' well, and makes up good in all kinds of work. It has already been tested out in all parts of the country, Raymond Champe of Michigan flnding it his beat commercial variety. I can furnish strong divisions at $3.50 per dozen, $20.00 per 100; and clumps at $6.00 per doz., $3S.OO per 100. Hortolanns Flet (Giant Decorative Dahlia). Beautiful salmon-pink with a slight blending of yellow. Good divisions $1K.00 per 100, $2.00 per dozen. Madonna ('N'ew Peony-flowered Dahlia). A very beautiful white, very slightly tinted with a most delicate shade of lavender-pink. The touch of color adds greatly, rather than detracts from its value, especially when made-up in floral work. The form of the flower is perfectly original, each petal curling and twisting in a very pleasing manner. An excellent cut-flower variety. Strong divisions $1.50 per dozen, $10.00 per 100; clumps $3.00 per dozen, $26.00 per 100. Frank A. Walker (New Decorative Dahlia). A charming shade of lavender-pink, with long stiff stems.

Smith, for several years with the Littleford Nurseries, Downers Grove, IlL, is starting in business for himself in the same town. The East Coast Finance Ck)rporation is establishing a nursery to grow tropical plants at a new location to be known as Kelsey City, about six miles from Palm Beach, Fla. The officers of this cor- poration are as follows: President, Harry S. Kelsey, of Boston, Mass., and Palm Beach, Fla. ; treasurer. Prof. Frank W. Rane, of Boston, and secretary, Arthur F.Ray. The Huntsville Wholesale Nursery Co., Huntsville, Ala., has been incorporated with a capital of $120,000 for the purpose of operating the properties which were re- cently acquired from the old company of the same name. The officers are as fol- lows: President, William H. BeU; vice- president, John H. Baird; secretary, John Fraser, Jr., and treasurer, R. F. Neil. The original Huntsville nursery was es- tablished by Maj. W. F. Heikes and Mrs. Jessie Moss more than forty years ago and for many years was reputed to be the largest fruit nursery in the world. PACIFIC COAST ASSOCIATION. Prestige Publicity. The Pacific Coast Association of Nurserymen is about to launch a pub- licity campaign which, it is hoped, will not only educate the public regarding the proper selection and care of nursery stock, but will also increase the effi- ciency and raise the standards of the nurserymen themselves. We shall adopt an emblem to represent the highest ideals attainable in our profession, to stand for healthy, vigorous stock of the best quality, size and shape that it is possible to grow. It will be used as a trade-mark by our members and in ad- vertising in various local papers and northwestern horticultural and farm journals. The aim will be to have as members of our association only those who are willing and prepared to live up to the hallmark of quality which we shall set as our standard. We want membership in our organiza- tion to denote prestige in itself and to have the public learn that dealing with firms who are identified with the move- ment is eminently satisfactory. Cooperation is the keynote of our whole plan, cooperation with each other first and then hearty cooperation with the buying public by supplying their needs with stock which cannot be ex- celled and by not losing our interest in the stock and in the people who buy it, after it is paid for. Orowing for the Florist. Many nurserymen are preparing to take up the suggestion made by one of our trade journals recently, to the effect that it was plausible and practical for florists and nurserymen to get together on many different points which have been neglected before. Since Quaran- tine No. 37 has been put into force, it has occurred to many growers that the ornamental stock which has been large- ly imported for decorative trade might be grown here equally well and without the risk of shipping. In the old countries there is not so much distinction between the terms "nurseryman" and "florist," a florist really being considered a nurseryman who grows flowering and decorative plants as his specialty. Among evergreens there are many sorts of junipers, retinisporas, box- woods and other trees which lend them- selves readily to pot culture and which were shipped to American florists in large quantities before the war and Quarantine No. 37 put a stop to import- ing. There are also flowering plants, shrubs and roses which can be prepared for florists' use by the average nursery- man, if he will make it a point to look into the requirements and take pains to meet them. To be valuable from a florist's standpoint, the stock must be symmetrical, well established and ca- pable of forcing to its maximum perfec- tion in a short time. This requires dif- ferent methods of handling from those needed to produce nursery stock of the best quality, but, even so, it will pay to work into this department. Ruth Day, Pres. lUJNOIS ASSOCIATION MEETS. Officers Elected. The third annual convention of the Illinois State Nurserymen's Association, which was held at the Hotel La Salle, Chicago, February 11 and 12, was well attended, but the value of both ad- dresses and discussion would have justi- fied a much larger attendance.

Fkbboabt 19, 1020 The Florists^ Review 113 1111111 o o Avoid Extremes In This Season's Shrub Buying Unquestionably, there is unheard of de- mand for shrubs this year. Result is some buyers have paid record prices without ques- tion. And others, holding back on price, have bought shrubs of questionable quality at lower figures. But when you order your shrubs this year, think of your customers' orders for shrubs next year. You can't afford to send out stock that won't give satisfaction. Don't let stock that looks cheap now keep on cost- ing you money next year and the year after in lost orders. On the other hand, you need not throw away money on over-priced stock when you can get C. & J. quality stock at a reasonable price. There's no question about the quality of any of our stock. Conard & Jones shrubs, grown by ourselves right here in West Grove, are the same superior grade as Conard & Jones Roses and Cannas. And our prices while these small surpluses of stock last, will save you money, quality con- sidered. Order what you want now for shipment when you want it.

After the roll had been called Wednes- day morning, the president, Guy A. Bryant, Princeton, delivered his ad- dress, which summed up the present situation in the following paragraphs: The present manrelouB proe];>erlty of our coun- try and the unprecedented demand for nursery products at higher prices than ever before, to- gether with the application of the federal quar- antine, following the curtailed prodnctloa of tli* war period, have produced a condition In the trade that merits careful study. We know that for this season there will not be enough fruit trees to supply the demand and that many sorts of ornamentals are now nearly off the market, so that the limit of the busi- ness done this spring will depend altogether on our ability to And stock to take care of orders. It now looks as if this state of affairs would continue through 1920, and perhaps through 1021. The present shortage of stock and the result- ing high prices have tended to cause nearly all nurserymen to arrange for greatly Increased plantings this spring and to stimulate produc- tion in every way possible. I should not be deemed a pessimist if, in this time of extreme shortage, I should sound a note of warning as to the probable overproduction that will result if we do not use rare judgment as to the extent of our plantings during the next two years. If we make conservative plantings to fit individual needs, with, perhaps, a moderate surplus, we shall do our part in warding off that overproduc- tion that is bound to follow Indiscrmiinate planting. President Bryant then called atten- tion to the need of cooperation with the A. A. N., of increasing the state as- sociation 's membership and, possibly, of raising the dues, and to the desirability of having the state vice-presidents for the national association appointed at the meetings of the various state asso- ciations. Cooperation and Service. Owing to the absence of P. A. Glenn, chief inspector of the state department of agriculture, A. H. Hill, of the D. Hill Nursery Co., Dundee, obligingly moved his address ahead from Thursday- morning to Wednesday . afternoon, speaking of the ways in which the state association could cooperate with the A. A. N. In the same ses.sion, J. A. Young, of the Aurora Nurseries, Aurora, presented a vigorous paper on "What Does the Nurseryman Sell?" showing the need of strict honesty in the busi- ness and of the realization by everyone in it that he is selling, not plants sim- ply, but service. In line with this sub- ject, the association adopted the fol- lowing code of ethics, recommended by the committee on ethical standards: First — To consider my vocation worthy and af- fording me distinct opportunity to serve society. Second — To improve myself, increase my effi- ciency and enlarge my sen-Ice, and by so doing attest my faith in the nursery business. Third — To realize that I am a nurseryman and a business man and ambitious to succeed, but tiiat I am first a moral man and vrtsh no suc- cess that Is not founded on the highest justice and morality. Tonrth — To hold that the exchange of my goods, my service and my ideas for profits is legitimate and morally right and that it shall be my aim that all i>artles to the exchange shall be benefited thereby. Fifth. — To use my best endeavors to elevate the standards of the vocation in which I am en- gaged. Call for Accounting.

The ensuing discussion indicated that a suf- ficient number of the members would be individually willing to share in the expenses of installing a uniform system of accounting and, as the result of a vote by the association, President Bryant appointed A.

The interest of the association in this subject crystal- lized in a resolution which was prepared by a committee consisting of A. M. Augustine, J. A. Young and F. W. Von Oven, and which the association voted to send to the trustees of the University of Illinois. The resolution follows: Whereas, There Is an Increasing natlmial de- mand for plant material to be used In the or- 116 The Floriste' Review Febbuabt 19. 1920 ehaida, for the beautlflcatlon of onr home Sounds and jMirka and for forestry purposes and ere is a need for trained men in this partic- ular field of endeavor; and whereas there is not, at the present time, a school for the edu- cation of nurserymen; Therefore, Be It BesolTed, That the nursery- men of the Illinois State rfurserymen's Asso- ciation, in convention assembled, recommend to the trustees of the University of Illinois that they at <«ce arrann for and Institute such a course or courses in nursery management and practice as will properly qualify men for that indnstrr. Preserving Faith and Forests. In the final session of the convention, Thursday afternoon, Alvin E. Kel^m read a paper discussing the question, "Should the Illinois State Nurserymen's Association Certify to the Sales Made by Members!" emphasizing that the seller should be made financially respon- sible and that the members of the as- sociation need not fear supervision. He iBuggested that certifying should be done by the national, rather than by a state, association. F. W. Von Oven, of the Naperville Nurseries, Naperville, presented a large amount of informa- tion on "The Forestry Problem in i Illinois," describing the position of Illinois in the lumber industry, the growth of the movement to create for- est preserves and the significance of this movement for the nurserymen. He believed that forest preserves would stimulate the public's love of trees and would thus ultimately benefit nursery- men, but that the trade should be suf- ficiently represented to insure that the state production of trees is only for state use. Summer Meeting at Urbana. In the freedom of the open forum discussion ranged wide, expressing dis- satisfaction with the non-central loca- tion of the executive headquarters of the national association, advocating more frequent visits by the state in- spectors, holding that present nursery prices were justified by the prices of other commodities, opposing the giving of wholesale prices to large consumers and presenting various opinions as to the percentage which retailers needed to add to wholesale prices in order to secure an adequate profit. Mr. Nelson urged all nurserymen to write to their congressmen in support of the Gould bill, H. B. 5939. While it was agreed that the best usual meeting-place for the association was Chicago, the association was glad to accept the suggestion of Professor Blair that it should hold its next meet- ing at Urbana in either July or Sep- tember and thus be able to examine at first hand the work of the univer- sity's department of horticulture. RHODE ISLAND ASSOCIATION. Bequests State Aid. The second annual convention of the Bhode Island Nurserymen's Associa- tion, which was postponed from Feb- ruary 5 because of the heavy storm, was held at Providence, February 12. Charles W. Mowrey, of the Woon- socket Hill Nurseries, Woonsocket, was elected president for the ensuing year and it was unanimously voted to ask the Bhode Island general assembly to appropriate $2,500 for the proper inspection and supervision of cleaning- up work in the nurseries of Bhode Is- land.

He said that the state board's $15,000 fund must provide for salaries, expenses for cattle killing and similar expenditures and was too small for the special inspection of nursery stock, including pines and spruces, and the supervision of clean- ing out insects and other pests.

Bhode Island has not yet recovered from the worst storm that has visited the state since the big blizzard of Nov- ember, 1898. Traffic of all kinds has been interfered with and a general tie- up of business of every description has resulted during the last fortnight and it will be at least another week before conditions become normal. The long spell of cold, dark and cloudy weather put a decided crimp in the cut on all kinds of flowers, with the result that there has been a short- age that sent prices up. Though weather conditions materially reduced the demand, the supply was far from adequate to satisfy the call. Various Notes. At the range of Burke & Burns, on Dyer avenue, the snow drifted against one side of a greenhouse so that it cov- ered the roof and crusted. Boys sliding down the avenue mistook the drift for a hill and, coasting over, broke nearly fifty dollars* worth of glass. The weight of snow and ice broke in one end of one of the houses of William Crompton, at East Deerwich, causing damage of about $100. Charles E. Moody, for more than twenty years employed with J. A. Bud- long Co., at Auburn, has resigned to go into the real esate business for him- self. Daniel S. Kelly, of Anthony, is con- fined to the house with a broken bone in his ankle. Johnston Bros, had a large decoration at the Churchill house Friday, February 13. Timothy O 'Connor, who has been con- fined to the house by an attack of the grip, is able to be about again. Word has been received here that John Ovsenick, for several years wire- worker for Joseph E. Koppelman, of this city, died recently in New^ York while on a visit from his home in De- troit. Frederick Dietz, of French street, was a recent business visitor in New York. William Crompton is confined to his home, at East Greenwich, by a severe attack of influenza. Henry Phillips, of Academy avenue, has iust purchased a new automobile. W. H. M. Passaic, N. J. — The Thurston Floral Co. has been incorporated with a capital of $25,000. The incorporators are Charles Roth, of East Paterson; Alex Hay, of Haledon, and David H. Thurs- ton, of Paterson. ASPARAGUS SPRENGBRI, 2-in., 3c; 3-in., 7c; 4-m., 12c.

Abby Ave. Greenhouses DAYTON, OHIO This photosraph was taken November 23, 1919, and will give a good idea of what HAMBURG LATE PINK looks like when grown to single stems and planted six inches each way. HAMBURG LATE PINK CHRYSANTHEMUM is an improved late pink Maud Dean, having more petals and, if grown for late, will hardly ever show an open center. The average grower of ChrysanthemuniB must have varieties which are easy to handle and from which he can cut aB near 100% of perfect blooms as possible. UamburK Late Pink has been grown for the last four years, and produces a very high proportion of good flowers. It Is not an exhibition variety, but for late pluk Is one of the best for commercial purposes. It can be had In bloom the latter part of November by taking an early bud, but some of the flowers will show open ceuters. By selecting late buds, after October 1, most of the flowers are cut during December, and would advise to select late buds, as the later buds will hardly ever show an open center, and some flowers can be had even in January. Keeping qualities are excellent and where a graceful pink flower is wanted, Hambarc Late Pink cannot be surpassed. Plants will be ready March 1, 1920, and all orders will be filled in rotation.

We have just erected a greenhouse, 16x100 feet and seven feet high at the ridge, for which we need a hot water boiler. There are three feet of con- crete in the side walls. The length of the sashbars is nine feet. We have 200 feet of 3-inch pipe, which we wish to use for flow pipes under the ridge, and four lines of 3-inch cast-iron pipe to go under the side benehesj two on each side. How large a boiler would be need- ed to heat the house to 60 degrees in zero weather? The house was formerly part of a range of twelve houses and gave good service with the pipes ar- ranged as we have them. L. S.— N. Y. To heat the house described, it would be desirable to use a boiler rated for about 800 square feet of hot water ra- diation, or about 900 square feet if soft coal is to be used. This will require a grate of twenty-four or twenty-five inches in diameter. The radiation would perhaps be a little more effec- tually distributed if the flow pipes were carried at the purlins rather than under the ridge. USING OLD EQXTIFMENT.- I have purchased two greenhouses, sketches of which I am sending, and in- tend to rebuild them. The heating ar- rangements were not good, the boUer being too small. I should like to use the same material that was in the old arrangement. Could you tell me the best system of heating and how large a boUer for the hot water system is needed to keep a temperature of 60 de- grees in zero weather t I shall erect the boiler house at the north end of the houses. The sides will be boarded dou- ble, with air space between, up to the 6aves. The houses are 15x90 and ten feet high. There are three solid benches, with two. paths eighteen inches wide. A. G. — Can. The houses will each require about 600 square feet of radiation and it would be advisable to use a boiler rated for about 1,500 square feet. This will re- quire a grate about thirty inches in diameter or 28x32 inches. The greater part of the pipe on hand is either 1-inch or 1%-inch in diameter. This is too small for' use with hot water heat in a house ninety feet in length, al- though the 246 feet of 1 14-inch pipe may be used. The fifty feet of 4-inch pipe and the fifty feet of 3-inch pipe may be used for the flow and return pipes leading to the houses. It is al- ways well to have the returns of the same size as the flow pipes. It would be best to run a 2V^-inch pipe as a flow upon each purlin. This wUl require about ninety feet for each house, making it necessary to purchase about 250 feet of this size. For returns it would be best to use three 2-inch pipes on each side wall and one 2-inch return in each walk. The 246 linear feet of 1^-inch pipe may be used on one of the walls, forming three runs, which may be substituted for two runs of 2-inch pipe. By getting twenty feet more of 1^-inch pipe, there wUl be enough for one run, which may be used in place of one of the 2-inch returns, • OBaaDBaHaBDBaB DBOBDBaBDBDB : K-R-0-E-S-C-H-E-L-L: □ STEAM UNITS OF SUPERIOR FEATURES " B No Tubes D To Cloan, B No a Masonry B Required D a ■ D ■ a ■ D ■ D ■ D ■ D ■ a d a B D ■ O For Steam Plants Less Than 100 Horse Power Kroeschell Water Tube Steam Boiler KROESCHELL High Pressure Unit 100 to 350 HORSE POWER a B a B D B D B a D c D D D KROESCHELL^ IReStWATtRTUBf VATCHTEO ■•■* BOILER- Our BABY Steam Boiler For Small Steam Plants Gravity Vapor or Vacuum Systems D B a B n B a B a KROESCHELL Tubeless Steam BoUer • D \ KROESCHELL BROS.

This does not provide for using the 1,000 linear feet of 1-inch pipe now on hand. If possible, it should be dis- posed of and 2-inch pipe for the returns should be bought. In case this cannot be done, it may be used for eleven re- turns in the place of five 2-inch returns, provided it is placed on the side walls as near the plates as possible and the boiler can be placed so that it will be entirely below the level of the floor.

I have a return tubular boiler twelve feet long and four feet wide, with thirty-nine 3%-inch flues. Please tell me the right size of fire box for it. I seem to be burning too much coal for that size of boiler. I am heating two houses 25x125 and five other houses, 25x117, 24x110, 20x75, 8x125 and 6x50, respectively. Steam heat is used, with a Morehead trap. I average about fif* teen pounds of steam pressure, although the state inspector allows me twenty- five pounds. Would there be any advan- tage in using a reducing valve f If I have twenty-five pounds of pressure without a reducing valve, would I have any change in temperature in the green- houses if I installed a reducing valve and set it at ten pounds t A. P. 0.— O. The temperature desired in the houses is not stated, nor is the amount of glass, if any, in the side walla. For an aver- age temperature of 60 degrees in zero weather, 2,800 square feet of steam radiation, with ten pounds' pressure, ahould be sufficient for the houses men- tioned, provided there is no glass in the side walls. A proportional increase in the amount of radiation should be made for any glass except in the roofs and one end of the houses. Judging from the dimensions given, the boiler would be rated for about forty-five horsepower. Although some- what larger than is really needed, it is not excessively large for the econom- ical operation of the Tieating system. A grate three and one-half feet square, or with twelve and a quarter square feet, would answer for the amount of radiation with steam lump coal, but for run-of-mine fourteen to sixteen square feet of grate surface would be prefer- able. It would not be well to earry more than ten pounds' pressure at the boiler for a range of the size mentioned. The use of a reducing valve is only to be recommended for a large range of long houses. It makes it possible to use smaller mains. In a given range a higher temperature can be maintained with a pressure of twenty-five pounds without a reducing valve than when there is a reducing valve set at tea pounds, but more coal will be required.

This week was expected to show more abun- dant supply, but the blizzard and the subsequent sub-zero weather were a se- rious check to maturing crops. Last week was one of the best, from the growers' point of view, that have been recorded since Christmas. All flowers sold quickly at good prices. The quantity of stock was large and the quality good. More roses would help considerably, but with the bad weather and with propagating in full swing the demand cannot be met. Bulbous stock is in good supply, with prices on a par with more expensive stock. Heavy cuts of calendulas and sweet peas have been marketed each morning.

St. Valentine's Day. Until the middle of last week, there was an uncertainty about the supply of stock for St. Valentine 's day. Prepara- tions had been well-linder way to give the day plenty of publicity and, as the supply of flowers seemed to increase heavily each da)y, the advertising com- mittee cut loose with about 450 inches of space in eight local papers. The well framed cards in every flower store, the valentine posters in prominent places and the attractive advertisements in the street cars gave no one a chance to forget February 14. Without a doubt the day's sales were the largest yet experienced by any re- tailer for St. Valentine's day. Beports from several downtown stores were that the day was "a, regular little Easter" and "far ahead of expectations." February 14 was, however, a bad day for deliveries. All day there was snow driven by a gale and, before deliveries were made, the thermometer registered below zero.

Advertising Club Meets. The annual meeting of the Florists' Advertising Club was held at the Be- pnblican House, February 16. A de- lightful dinner was served and an in- teresting evening spent by those present. Owing to the extreme weather con- ditions, it was impossible for many to attend and a quorum was not obtained, preventing the election of officers. The meeting voted a resolution to continue with the present officers and board of directors. President Hnnkel called the meeting to order. The treasurer's report showed that through the perfected Fox system, the collections reached $12,000 for the fiscal year, ended January 31. The secretary's report was interest- ing, bringing out the point that the overhead expenses of the entire adver- tising activities for the year were but eight per cent of the money spent. This eight per cent included cuts, drawings, stamps, office supplies, etc. The meeting was addressed by A. M. Candee, advertising manager of the National Enameling & Stamping Co. His talk was plain, bringing out the modus operandi of advertising in a manner that showed that he understands his subject well. A movement was started toward forming a retail florists' association, to further the particular needs of the re- tailers. Suggestions were offered on changing the name of the club and were carried over to the next meeting. It was also the voice of those assembled that two meetings should be held each year, with fixed dates so arranged that it would eliminate, so far as possible, the lack of attendance which adverse circum- stances are liable to cause. Various Notes. Mrs. M. O, Seeman, of Anderton & Sceman, who has been quite ill since early in December, has not yet regained health. Mrs. Anderton is also ill, suf- fering from a nervous breakdown. Carl C. Gruhl, night watchman at the range of the Helton & Hunkel Co., was found dead on the runway leading from the boiler room by another employee early Thursday morning, February 12. Death was due to a hemorrhage, accord- ing to the coroner. When he was dis- covered, his hands were still grasping the handles of a wheelbarrow. He was married and was 65 years of age. J. P.

THE FERTILE CHEMICAL CO.,Dept a, Cleveland, Ohio. BBIDGEPOBT, CONN. The Market. There were some bright days last week and consequently the supply is better than at the laat writing. The carnation supply is noticeably im- proved. There is an increase in the cut of daffodils, tulips, freesias and sweet peas. Callas and Easter lilies are in moderate supply. Roses are still far from plentiful. Influenza is at its height in Bridge- port and a number of deaths have re- sulted. Funeral flowers have been in big demand, and there have been a number of calls for large pieces. Various Notes. The Arcade Flower Shop reports that there is a good demand for funeral work. James E. Beach says that on account of the recent cloudy weather he had difficulty in obtaining enough flowers to fill funeral orders. However, condi- tions have improved in the last few days, and more flowers are being cut. The Park Garden & Flower Shop re- ports a larger carnation crop and an increased supply of tulips, daffodils and sweet peas. John Heck & Son were busy filling orders for St. Valentine's day. Spring stock is coming along nicely at the greenhouses. James Horan & Son have been busy with funeral orders. Julius Beck, who has been confined to the house for some time with a severe cold, is again able to attend to busi- ness. His son, John Beck, who was sta- tioned just outside of Paris for a num- ber of months, has received his dis- charge from the service and is again connected with the flrm. Eobert Hawkins had the decorations for the Charity ball. They consisted of palms, southern smilax, forsythia and ferns. I. L. B. ^ C. J. Brooks, nortat LWIWIUl, BloonJmtoo. IM.

Among the interesting ideas recently developed here was a scheme for a Spanish luncheon; The house was dec- orated with a profusion of spring blos- soms, while the basket for the luncheon table was of scarlet carnations and daffodils. The current issue of a motion picture weekly which is being shown at the California theater contains excellent views of the Ferrari orchid houses. The cattleyas are in perfect condition now and the blooms are profuse enough to make a splendid picture. A new shop is being opened at 710 Bush street by W. D. McMullen and will be known as the Little Bouquet. The location is in the heart of the downtown apartment house section and should receive a good amount of cut flower trade at the beginning. A striking orchid display was made by the Art Floral Co., of Powell street, recently. The cattleyas were effective- ly arranged in the manner of their nat- ural growth on the branches of moss- grown oak shrubs. The delicate laven- der of the orchids combined most at- tractively with the soft gray-g^en of the oak limbs and moss. An interesting addition to the Art Floral Co. menage is a 3-months-old leopard, spots and all, who is being rapidly spoiled by the amount of attention he is receiving from passers-by as he contentedly plays about the store, confined only by a chain. As yet he has not developed any of the fierce traits of his parentage and is to all intents and purposes a playful, harmless kitten. M. M.

Kimball Kleckner, of Battle Creek, Mich., reports the scarcity of stock a handicap in his efforts to increase Dusi- ness. However, relief is looked for at an early date. B. W. Kribs, of Battle Creek, Mich., is practically sold out of all large flow- ering plants. Unusual demand has al- most cleaned up all of his holiday stock. E. G.

Mr. Grower: "Wire Tie" is a labor-saving device and is made specially for the grower. Why continue tying up plants with cord when you can buy "Wire Tie" at $2.00 per 1000—6000 for 19.00? They are indispensable for tying up Hyacinths and all other plants you now tie to a stake with cord, and so simple a child can apply them. Simply grasp "tie" between the fingers, slip it around the stake, draw the plant^ into position and press the "tie" together; the leaves hold it in position.

Speaking of the right and wrong way to have your gable (ioors, do you know Ernest Mueller of St. Joseph, Missouri? Well then, you know what a careful, painstaking man he is about everything he does. When we tell you that these door photos were taken at his new house, along in November, you are promptly satisfied that those doors are right. You'll notice that the center door is hinged to one of tho others, and that it is equipped with knob and lock as an entrance door. Now just note those two strong channel iron posts. One is bolted directly to the right-hand door, and has slip bolts top and bottom when you want to throw the door open. The other channel iron post is fastened to the left-hand door and swings back with it; or is held in place the same as the other. Observe that the doors ALL swing in. Also that the two hinged ones fold back as they open in, so that no additional space is necessary on the end walk. Folding back that way has another advantage. It takes the leverage off the main hinges. Mind you, we are not saying this is the only way to arrange gable doors, but we do say that the up-to-date Westerners seem to want them that way. So it must be because of some particularly sound reason. Builders of Greenhouses and Conservatories IRVINGTON New York BOSTON Little BIdg. NEW YORK 42nd St. Bldg.

How it came into being and how it operates is told here by the man who does the work. OT YET two and one-half "Tk "T" years old, the cooperative C^l^k I advertising campaign of [ I ^d the florists of Milwaukee ' is a lusty child, making re- markable growth. It was born September 6, 1917, at the Bepublican House, in Milwaukee, where fifty- five representative florists met to form what was later called the Florists' Advertising Club. The pros- pectus of the proposed organization was read, the by-laws prepared beforehand were accepted with some changes and a canvass was undertaken to secure the signatures of members. The club was later incorporated under state laws, without capital and not for profit. The first officers of the club were: President, H. V. Hunkel; vice-president. Gust. Busch ; treasurer, A. Leidiger; sec- retary, H. J. Seel. A board of directors was established to control the activities of the club. This was composed of three growers, three wholesalers and three retailers. The board made all the appropriations and approved all expenditures for ad- vertising. To raise the money for the advertising, a "plan of assessment was worked out, then quite novel, but since well known throughout the country by the success of this campaign. Every grow- er who was a member of the club instructed the commission house to which he consigned his flowers to deduct one-half of one per cent from his returns. Every retailer had added to his bill one per cent of the invoice amount. The sum deducted from the growers' returns and that added to the retailers' bill was turned over to the club by the wholesalers. Equitable Contributions. This plan was formed with the intention of equal- izing contributions. The grower contributed only one-half as much on a per- centage basis as the retail- er, because it was estimat- ed that approximately one- half of his flowers were sold to retailers outside Milwaukee. The percentage on sales in Milwaukee was therefore in equal propor- By H. J. SEEL. tion between the grower and retailer. By this method each member of the trade contributed in accordance with the size of his business. The returns from the advertising, it was felt, were in proportion to a florist's established trade, and therefore this was the most equitable mode of assessment. The large firms and the small ones contribute according to their ability and the assess- ment is not a burden on anyone. Every Dollar Must Count. The first year the amount collected was $4,863. This was not an extrava- gant sum of money to do a year's ad- vertising for the trade in a city the size of Milwaukee. It was only by con- serving it, by hoarding it, that the com- mittee was able to make so much of it. Every penny had to count. No large sums could be paid for running expenses. Every dollar was needed for actual advertising, and by careful con- servation the committee was able to make the fund accomplish a great deal. So satisfied was everyone in Milwau- PUSHING PUBLICITY a D o a Local campaigns for co-operative ad- vertising occupy the limelight in the florists* trade today. Several cities are seeking to establish them and others are talking of the project. To forward this movement, one of the greatest in the trade's history, The Review pre- sents the stories of the three plans now in operation, from which other com- munities can form their own. kee with the results of the first year's campaign that when the annual meet- ing was held February 10, 1919, it was voted to double the assessments for the following year, so that the growers would pay cne per cent and the retail- ers two per cent. The motion to do this was mad'j from the floor, without any recommendation from the officers of the club. It represented the spontaneous appreciation of the florists of Milwau- kee of the good the campaign had done for their business. Seventy-four votes were cast in the ballot on the question and only two were negative. For the second year of the campaign in Milwaukee, recently closed, approxi- mately $12,000 was raised. If you di- vide this by two and calculate only on half the amount, or what would have been, received had the rj^tes of assess- ment continued the same as in the first year, you find an increase of twenty- three per cent over the year before. Here is actual proof that the publicity really increased the business of the florists of Milwaukee. We have no doubt of it. The reports from the wholesale houses show thia gain of twenty-three per cent was not merely the normal growth of the flow- er business, for during the same time the out-of-town business did not increase at anywhere near the rate that the city business did. The weekly records bear this out also. If the week 's business at one of the wholesale houses indicates a gain of $1,000, approxi- mately $800 of it will be gain in the city and about $200 in out-of-town busi- ness. If there appears a loss of $1,000, the city loss will be $200, the country loss $800. If there is a $500 loss, probably the figures show a city gain of $200 but a country loss of $700. Proof of Returns. The fact that the records ^un like this week after week convinces the most skeptical that the advertis- ing in Milwaukee has paid and paid well. Out of the larger appro- priation during the second year, we estimate that we have obtained, not just twice the amount of adver- tising we got the first year, but nearer two and one- 18 The Florists^ Review Febhuauy 26, 1920 half times as much. You may ask why we can do this. In the first place, you know the expenses of running a large business are not proportionately larger than running a smaller business. Then, too, we are able to get lower rates when we purchase in larger quantities. We are able to get better discounts when we can contract for larger amounts of space in the newspapers. And all along the line the cost of the larger campaign is proportionately less. Nobody Pays for Advertising. If any florist thinks such advertising is an expense to him, let him ask him- self who pays for it. The grower doesn't pay. As a result of his contribution of one-half of one per cent the grower sells more stock; he makes more money. So the cost of the advertising does not come out of his pocket. No, the grower doesn't pay. The wholesaler sells more stock and, though he doesn't raise his prices, his commissions are larger. The wholesaler doesn't pay. The retailer does not have to pay any more for his stock. He makes more sales at the same prices as before and pockets a larger profit from increased business. The retailer doesn't pay. And since the retailer does not raise his price to the public, but continues to sell at figures he charged before he began to advertise, the public doesn't pay for the advertising. Who does? Nobody. The increased sales pay for the advertising". The » ■1IOnW»«BH«>«*-a some extra bookkeeping necessitated by this plan and for that reason the whole- saler contributes no money to the fund, but gives his services instead. From trial we have found the added expeuM to the wholesaler about offsets what he would be asked to pay in money. The wholesalers remit their collec- tions to the treasurer of the advertis- ing fund at stated intervals. Thus the job of collecting the money is auto- matically cared for. In addition to these collections made in regular customers' transactions through wholesale houses, we found ways to collect on purchases made in all other ways. The plantsmen who sold direct to the retailer were won into our plan. The street peddlers had to pay on their purchases, too. Ulti- mately we think we got everybody pay- ing. Directors Have Work. Of course, difficulties of various sorts come up from time to time. They came up more frequently at first than later. Therein lies much work for the direc- tors. The board of directors consists of nine members — three wholesalers, three retailers and three growers. Each in- dividual has one vote. These nine men not only pass upon all advertising prop- ositions and appropriations, but they also straighten out the kinks brought to their attention by members of the trade. The troubles of his constituents may be taken before the board by a Say It With Flowers *i»W •( UWtel la Mllnd» FM Pna THE PRICE OF A FLOWER "Like a human lite, we adore their tran- sient beauty, yet in passing they leave fond menmries and cherished thought." ■ .,:t^ .i: ^Ur.y..r:i.';:;.^g ;^-; fhe I«tc of ■ lid fer • fi»i mlt* nhwm tW aeiliaai lor ctrryin, iwwl. liknl f iprtMioo.. til ■)• tk* (nwiii llatr •( IV' •v>«iii|> W1iy< tk* 1*^ 4 t cwd airKkt^ rH4>ii| (ran •>•(»«' *•« ttiktr ~ Flowers hi the tickrooB tre Mle tuuhiot — If jou hive a tnile, sen4 it wi'k Flowers.

The florists of this country owe to the original members of the national publicity committee a debt which cannot be measured by monetary value. It was the forethought and perseverance of the members of this committee which made the national pub- licity fund possible. They worked against obstacles which seemed almost impossible to overcome. They started this fund at a time when it was hard to make even the most liberal-minded florist believe that it was an opportune time to start such a fund, especially at a time when the demand for flowers was greater than the supply. The writer was one of those who did not believe at that time that it was a wise move, al- though our company fell in line and subscribed to the original fund for four years and last December paid the sub- scription in full. Opposition to the movement was strong at first and the committee, I believe, was up against it, biit hung on, and at last has been par- tially rewarded for its efforts by the formation of several local publicity funds, which have sprung up in the last two years in some of the larger cities. It is due entirely to their great work and foresight that publicity has come to be to the florists of this country their one greatest asset. At this time I wish to publicly acknowl- edge that I was mis- taken in my theory that the opportune time had not ar- rived to start such a fund. I take off my hat to these gentle- men. Every florist in this country should stand back of this committee in their great work and subscribe liberally to this fund, in order that they can carry on this great work of publicity. Beginning. In the last year the writer gave local publicity a great deal of thought and study. I had read about Mil- waukee 'b plan and later about that of St. Louis, but to me these plans did not seem practical for the city of Buffalo. A little less than a year ago the Buffalo Florists* Club invited Henry Penn, of Bos- ton, to iipeak before the club on national By WALLACE H. EISS. publicity. His remarks sank deep into the hearts of some of the Buffalo florists, especially those who did some individual advertising. The ice was cracked, but not broken. Some time before this, John Young visited Buffalo in the interests of the national publicity fund, but the results he obtained must have been discourag- ing. A short time after Mr. Penn was in Buffalo I wrote to- Mr. Young, asking for information regarding the Milwau- kee and St. Louis plans. In this letter I stated that I thought it possible to start a fund for local publicity in Buf- falo. After studying the other plans I did not think they would work out suc- cessfully in Buffalo, not that I had any serious objections to those plans, but be- cause conditions were so much differ- ent here. Local Conditions. There are in Buffalo a great many growers of plants who sell their stock direct to the retailers, and the whole- sale house would have a diflBcult time to check up on this stock. Therefore, the assessment plan, in my mind, was not an equitable proposition, as some would be paying their full share, while others would be paying less than their share. Several of the retail florists were Wallace H. Eiss. (Chalima-i Western New York Publicity Committee.) interested, but nothing materialized. In October the F. T. D.— that bunch of live wires — held the annual meeting in Buffalo, and through a little publicity on the part of the local committee, a number of the retail florists in Buffalo and a few growers attended these meet- ings. It was at this time that the idea of publicity was revived in the minds of a few of the local retail florists. As stated previously, the writer had studied this problem to a considerable extent and finally hit upon the plan of voluntary subscriptions. But the one great difficulty was to present it in a forceful way to the growers and retail- ers. I had no doubt as to the support of the retailers, but was somewhat doubtful as to how the growers would take to the proposition. At the F. T. D. meeting I had the pleasure of meeting J. F. Ammann, then president of the S. A. F., and after hearing him speak to the members of the F. T. D. I came to the conclusion that here was the man who could, with telling effect, bring home to the grow- ers and retailers the message of local and national publicity. At the meeting of the growers and retailers of Buffalo held October 23, 1919, Mr. Ammann splendidly presented to them the value of cooperative local and national ad- vertising. This was the beginning of the Buffalo campaign. Too much credit cannot be given to Mr. Penn, who really started the idea of publicity in Buf- falo, to the F. T. D. meeting, which re- vived interest, and to Mr. Ammann, who really finished the work and made pos- sible the Western New York Florists' Publicity Fund, which has grown un- til it now exceeds $10,000. Organization. Interest now had been created, and Oc- tober 30 another meeting was held, when $6,500 was sub- scribed by thirty-two growers and retail- ers. At this meeting a permanent commit- tee was elected by the subscribers to this fund, comprising, be- sides the writer as chairman, Harold Brookins as secre- tary, Mark Palmer as treasurer, C. F. Treichler, Ed. Lehde, Robert Scott and Arthur Kowalski. Since that time sub- scribers have been added until ninety per cent of the retail- ers in the city and of the growers who mar- ket their products in 20 The Florists^ Review FSBBCABT 26, 1920 the city have subscribed to this fund. This fund now amounts to over $10,000 — the goal set by the chairman, which no one, outside of myself, thought it possible to raise. From the beginning the idea was that the subscriptions to this fund were not to be considered as donations, but it was impressed upon the subscribers that they were making an investment. This method of presenting the plan to the subscribers has made the fund possible. The object of the committee is to use the fund in a way that will give flowers the most publicity for the least ex- penditure. This, of course, is a hard problem, but so far the committee has done some good work. Part of the fund is set aside for newspaper advertising — in all advertisements the slogan * * Say It with Flowers" is used — part to pur- chase the national publicity committee 's billboards, which are to be placed in conspicuous places in the city of Buf- falo and on the public highways leading to Buffalo; part for propaganda work, such as articles on floriculture, which appear weekly in two of the local papers, and part of the fund is set aside to be given to the national publicity committee for their great work. The last, in my estimation, is most impor- tant, as I believe that the national fund will get more money out of this terri- tory than ever before. The results of such a local advertis- ing scheme are far-reaching. I am al- ways impressing upon the subscribers that they should not expect too much for the first year, but, just as in the national campaign, the results will be far beyond expectations in the second and following years. In conclusion, I believe that these several campaign funds will result in a great era of prosperity for the flo- rists of this country. Every city should start one, following either our plan or that of one of the other cities, which- ever will work out best for the particu- lar locality. The directors should plan to corral every florist within a certain radius of the city. In this way, in time, when the larger cities have start- ed funds, every florist will have a part in this great work. Above all, make it a point to set aside a certain sum for national publicity and thereby lighten the work of the national committee. It ^e^ — «fi^^ ^^BWjJ Week Today . ' . Tomorrow . .

LOUIS SUCCEEDED lOME ei^R years ago the florists of the city of St. Louis and of St. Louis county first discussed co- operative advertising, but somehow they could not get together to plan ways of raising the necessary funds and of putting them to the most effective use. I doubt whether we should ever have done anything more than think about publicity if it had not been for the S. A. F. and its inauguration of the national publicity campaign at its con- vention in New York in August, 1917. Two years ago, at a meeting of the local committee for the national flower show, some of the plans for national publicity were discussed and we saw the opportunity to get real benefit from the national campaign by tying up local publicity with it. About $200 was raised at that meeting and a committee was selected, with the writer as chair- man. This started the ball rolling. About $400 was spent for St. Valen- tine's day and the results were so con- vincing that it was decided to make that committee permanent, giving power to the chairman to appoint who- ever he thought would be wise addi- tions to the committee! As a result, its membership was enlarged to include the presidents of all the organizations in the trade in St. Louis and St. Louis county. We started with a voluntary sub- scription, each florist subscribing for a year and pay- ing in monthly in- stallments. The sec- retary had charge of the amounts col- lected and received a compensation for his work of ten per cent of the collec- tions. Launched. The amounts that we raised were not especially large, but the response that we received was de- cidedly encourag- ing. In following the steps of the na- t i o n a 1 publicity committee, we were using ideas that were not costing us anything and were getting our cuts at an unusu- ally low price, en- abling us to get large results for the money spent during that year. We ad- vertised chiefly through newspapers and street cars and by the use on every occasion of the slo- gan, "Say It with Flowers. ' ' By L. JULES BOURDET. By the end of the year, the committee realized that the voluntary method of raising funds was not fair, as some were paying too much in comparison with the size of their business, while others were not paying enough and still others were not paying anything. Proportional Payments. In the trade papers we read of the plan of proportional payments being started in Milwaukee, by which the re- tailers paid one per cent of the value of their purchases and the growers one-half of one per cent of their re- turns. This plan was thoroughly dis- cussed by the committee and was unan- imously accepted as the best and fairest way to assess the trade for co- operative publicity. The committee recommended this plan to each of the four principal trade organizations of the city, the St. Louis Florists' Club, the St. Louis County Growers' Association, the St. Louis Wholesale Florists' Association and the St. Louis Eetail Florists' Association, and they all endorsed it. The commit- tee also suggested that each of these organizations appoint three of its mem- bers to act on the publicity committee; this provided a committee of twelve. L. Jules Bourdet* (Chairman St. Louis Publicity Oomnilttee.) with three representatives each from the growers, the wholesalers, the re- tailers and the allied trades, as follows: L. Jules Bourdet, chairman; J. J. Ben- eke, secretary and treasurer; A. H. Hummert, W. A. Eowe, W. J. Pilcher, A. S. Cerny, W. C. Smith, H. G. Bern- ing, Frank A. Windier, Fred C. Weber, J. J. Windier and Charles C. Young. Last year the assessment on the growers alone 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. These figures are sufficiently typical to indicate how productive so slight a percentage can be when there are enough participants in the assessment. Last fall it was decided to spend $3,000 in advertising, with a generous use of the slogan, ' ' Say It with Flowers." For St. Valentine's day, the commit- tee distributed among the florists free of charge 50,000 stamps and 100 posters and ran a reproduction of the poster as a double-column advertisement in the daily papers for a week. The plan is now working with dis- tinct success, since an adequate in- come is practically assured, derived from small assessments, equitably assigned. Ninety-five per cent of the growers are paying their one- half of one per cent and are willing to double it if they are asked to do so. Somehow we have not been quite so fortunate with the retailers, who seem to be a little slow to realize the bene- fits of publicity; about fifty per cent of them are paying their one per cent. We are, however, winning them slow- ly but surely; the slowest to come in will be strongest in favor of it later. Double Beceipts. The total amount that we expect to raise this year irlth the plan of percent- age assessment is about double the amount which was raised last year with voluntary sub- scriptions. We have been able, also, to secure the free services of an ad- vertising man to handle our public- ity in the newspa- pers; this man re- ceives his compen- sation from the newspapers in com- missions. So far we have been using newspapers as the principal advertis- ing medium, as we found that such ad- 22 The Florists^ Review Febbuary 26, 1920 vertising gave the most for the money. The committee has been meeting twice each month and welcomes suggestions at such times from members of the local trade. Improvement. When the florists were asked for con- tributions to the local fund, some dif- ficulty was met in the fact that local members of the trade who had mado pledges to the national publicity com- mittee would then be making two pub- licity contributions, which might lead to confusion or dissatisfaction. So the local committee proposed to the na- tional publicity committee that those who contributed to the local campaign should be freed from their pledges to the national fund if twenty-five per cent of the local committee's receipts weie turned over to the national cam- paign. At a meeting of the local pub- licity committee January 13, 1920, the twenty-five per cent of collections made since April 1, 1919, was ordered paid to the national committee. The amount was $575. J. Fred Ammann, ex-president of the S. A. F., who was present, complimented the local com- mittee 0)1 being the first to make this iillotment to the national campaign. Personally I think that this so-called Milwaukee plan is the best method of asnessing florists in order to raise funds for publicity. Experience, both local and national, has shown that the rais- ing of funds by assessment is a much more just and more productive method of supporting trade publicity than the plan of depending upon voluntary sub- scriptions. The trade in any city which has not yet organized a definite cam- paign for local publicity will do well to inaugurate one, keeping in mind the desirability of allQtting to the national campaign a share of the amount raised. Any local publicity committee, also, should recognize the advantages of the assessment plan as compared with that of voluntary contributions and should make full use of the experience of the trade in such cities as Milwaukee and St. Louis, where the raising of publicity funds by assessments based on sales or purchases has already been started. I hope that soon the national publicity committee will adopt this plan. MEW ENOI.ANDEBS PROTEST. Oppose Com Borer Quarantine. Florists and nurserymen of the New England states are making strong oppo- sition to the proposed wholesale exten- sion of the quarantine against the corn borer, which will vitally affect their in- terests if issued by the Federal Horti- cultural Board. In preparation for the hearing at Washington, a gathering was held at the State House at Boston, Feb- ruary 18, to form a substantial protest against the projected action of the Fed- eral Horticultural Board. The for- bidding of the shipment of cut flowers outside of the state of Massachusetts would, it is anticipated, put many growers out of business. At the Boston hearing, J. K. M. L. Farquhar, J. Edward Moon, president of the American Association of Nursery- men, W. H. Elliott, W. G. Wyman and others spoke. It was finally decided to send a delegation to the hearing at Washington, consisting of J. K. M. L. Farquhar, Thomas Roland, M. E. Moore, W. H. Elliott, W. N. Craig, N. F. Mc- Carthy, W. G. Wyman and Commis- sioner of Agriculture Gilbert. Hearing at Washington. The Federal Horticultural Board gave a hearing February 24 on the proposed extension of the federal quarantine on account of the corn borer, sixty or more persona being present and about a score making statements, all protesting against any general extension. The ma- jority of those present were market gardeners and greenhouse men from Massachusetts, Connecticut and New York. The general sentiment expressed was that the quarantine, if extended, should take the form of quarantining the individual farm or greenhouse or nursery where the pest existed or where it was suspected and not subject the entire state or community to a drastic quarantine because of infected spots. It was recommended that the quaran- tine as it now exists should be modified along these lines. Qude Presents Argument. William F. Gude, representing the Society of American Florists, made one of the opening statements and the line of argument presented by him was largely followed by the other speakers throughout the hearing, which lasted for several hours. He declared that while growers did not want the board to take any steps that would be detri- mental to anyone, they did not want to be unnecessarily restricted by a quar- antine for something that does not exist. On behalf of the S. A. F. he recommended, in place of the state quar- antine, that each suspected individual nursery, greenhouse or farm should be quarantined. In this way, he said, a man who kept his stock free from pests would not be penalized for the careless- ness of one who lets his stock be over- run with pest-breeding weeds. Mr. Gude directed the attention of the board to the fact that the Massa- chusetts quarantine extended over the whole state, though it had been shown that the infested area was confined within a small space near Boston. Mr. Gude strongly urged the board not to act in such a way as to place under suspicion large areas, but to adopt a procedure that would aim to control the pest by quarantining and inspection of the individual place of growing. Not in Connecticut. Wallace R. Pierson, of Cromwell, Conn., made a strong argument against quarantining the state of Connecticut, dwelling on the fact that it would not be fair to quarantine the whole state when none of the pest has been found there. He said that if the borer was found there he was willing to have a quarantine which would be confined to the individual, but not one of the blan- ket type. Mr. Pierson said that in his opinion the board, instead of trying to eradicate the disease as it is now doing, should police the several oounties where the borer exists and compel the people there to burn all infested growing stock and also compel them to J!il[^JLVS/4^^ svit/svir/svir^rirs>(i>rsviiirsviiys\iri^r;rsvir^rrsvi^^^ BARR FOR DIVERSIFIED CROPS. "When Edward Reid, of Philadel- phia, gave a talk recently at a meet- ing of the Lancaster County Florists' Club," observed B. F. Barr, of B. F. Barr & Co., Lancaster, Pa., "among the many good hits made from the stand- point of a wholesaler was the advantage in growing diversified crops, so that both grower and wholesaler may have a more continuous stock, instead of the irregular supply as at present. We see the wisdom of this, even from the view- point of a retailer, most strikingly this winter and intend planning next season to follow along the lines advocated by Mr. Reid. Instead of growing so many chrysanthemums, which usually come in crops, we may put in snapdragons, myo- sotis, calendulas, wallflowers and the like, which, if planted after the early mums are gone, would be flowering dur- ing the months of January and Feb- ruary, when roses and carnations are usually off crop following the Christmas cut. ' ' A fine lot of Buddleia asiatica was noted, grown in temperatures of 40 and 50 degrees. A continuous crop is ob- tained, highly valuable at this time. Mr. Barr called attention to the bulb forcing pit and remarked that the chief reason, in his mind, why so small an as- sortment of flowering stock had been grown was the fact that hitherto Dutch bulbs have been preferred because they were easy to grow and reasonable in price, but he feels assured the annuals mentioned above will cut a large figure in the future. Carnations showed the effect of the long cloudy period by flopping over the first bright day, but will soon recover. This condition is general throughout the carnation belt in this vicinity and heavy cuts will soon be made. Roses are cut back for Easter. Sweet peas are look- ing fine. The nursery department is busy prop- agating stock and drawing plans in the office, showing where much will be planted next spring. Captain Murphy, recently discharged from the army, has charge of this work. Mr. Barr observed that he was barred from living on the farm for the present. The rush of business and an opportunity to have the homestead remodeled were given as the reasons. W. M. PLANTS AT PETERSON'S. J. A. Peterson, of J. A. Peterson & Sons, Cincinnati, O., was going through a batch of orders received for cyclamen seed and observed that the total amount- ed to 1,000,000 seeds, equal to thirty pounds' weight. It marks a record for the season of 1920 and speaks volumes touching the increasing popularity of 24 The Rorists^ Review Fbbbdabt 26, 1020 this plant, which may safely be termed the most easily grown and best selling in commerce today. A new house built last summer especially to carry plants for seed purposes is at this time a most interesting sight and, as my pilot pointed out with the eye of an expert, selecting the various desirable colors with the beautiful tints and markings, it is easy to see why this strain excels the famous Wandsbek, which is the original type. Three special self colors are Salmon King, white; Christmas Cheer, white with pink eye, and a lovely lavender tint. There are other shades, every one attractive. The rococo type is developing some lovely forms, Fairy Queen, Victoria and a crimson, all large flowers, heavily fringed. Double-formed flowers of the giganteum type are quite frequent; the stems stand up boldly, in contrast to the Belgian type, which is squatty and bushy. Begonias vie with cyclamens in order of rank. Prominent are Glory of Cin- cinnati, Melior (considered the hand- somest), Mrs. J. A. Peterson and, last but not least, Peerless. The plants were seen that had made the trip to the car- nation exhibition in Chicago and a round of other towns. One would never have known they had ever left the bench upon which they were growing; in fact, the hardy character of the plant is established and each year the retailer who handles any to grow on finds the task easier. French hydrangeas and crimson ram- bler roses for Easter are receiving atten- tion. The first batch of cyclamens in 2-inch pots, growing in a temperature of 55 degrees at night, will consequently be sturdy and healthy. Confidence in the future of blooming plants is seen in the fact that pandanus, Adiantum Farleyense and Asplenium Nidus-avis, for which this place has for several years been noted, will be seen no more here, if present conditions con- tinue. Mr. Peterson said, "We believe a great impetus will be given to the sale of such plants as cinerarias and primulas, to be followed with bedding out stock, owing to the dearth of cut flowers and the increasing demand, such as the trade has never seen. Let it come. ' ' Mr. Peterson, accompanied by Mrs. Peterson, are making a trip south, with a short stay in Florida. W. M. QUESTION INCBEASED DEMAND. As Cause of Shortage. I have been called to account in sev- eral quarters for the claim I have been making that incr'^t'.sed demand is more responsible for the existing shortage of flowers than any ether single item. If I am wrong, there certainly must be a way to find it out My object has been to get the growers all over the country to think of this matter and to investi- gate their local conditions to see if they do not warrant greater production. If their conclusions are otherwise than mine, then there is basis for question of my assertion. For myself, I hnvc made a deeper investigation of the subject and am still of the same opinion; that is, that if next winter is not to be a repetition of this one, the growers will have to produce more stock. I have made it a point to consult men who are in a po- sition to know the facts in the case and they thoroughly agree with me that, aside from carnations, there are per- haps as many plants being forced for cut bloom? this winter as there ever were before. Is Weather Responsible? Take the district in which I live, for example. My attention has been called to the fact that several large growers have not the same amount of stock to draw from as formerly. Upon in- vestigation I find that this is even more than offset by additions in other places. This being the fact, the only possible reason for the existing shortage — aside from that which I advance, namely, increased demand — is the unfavorable weather conditions. We will admit that the weather has been trying. But if there are as many plants being forced, this could not be responsible for the shortage in itself, for not a wholesale house throughout the entire countrj' is doing anything but taking orders, in a great many cases subject to procuring stock, and simply filling the orders on hand. Take Philadelphia, for instance, a city in which it used to be possible, on the shortest notice, to go into any of the wholesale houses and secure any amount of stock desired. I mean by this, the commission men had the stock on hand; a telegram or telephone mes- sage was all that was necessary. Bead Phil's news letter in The Review any week and see what the conditions are now. Chicago and New York and the other centers are in much the same condi- tion. Is it reasonable to suppose that the weather conditions are entirely re- sponsible for this? Conditions were not nearly so bad during the winter of 1917-1918, when the grower was on short coal rations and it was almost impossible to get help. Was there a great difference in the weather condi- tions then and now? Know the True Conditions. In the Saturday Evening Post oi February 7 there was a story by J. E. Sprague, entitled "No Statement, No Credit." In it he told of a merchant in a southern city whose affairs became involved. When his creditors tried to straighten them out, they found that he had no books; the reason was that he was afraid to know the true condi- tions. My advice to growers is to get a copy of that paper and read the ar- ticle, and see if the growers are not in about the same position regarding in- creased production. There is another angle from which to look at this question. We must all ad- mit that flowers are abnormally high. Only recently a prominent retailer told me that he rarely saw one of his old customers, that his present customers were entire strangers. I asked him what had become of the old patrons. His reply was that they could not af- ford to purchase flowers at the present high prices, since their incomes had been about cut in half by the advanced cost of living. Now, if a slump should come, as in all probability it will, there is going to be another change in flower buyers, but this need not deter any man from producing more stock. Any business is in an unhealthy con- dition when the producer only produces a part of the stock required and then sits back and charges prices for it out of all proportion to cost of production. You owe it to yourselves and you owe it to the public to put a supply of stock on the market commensurate with the demand and in this way bring prices to normal. In my estimation there is only one way in which this can be done and that is by the growers making ad- ditions to their ranges and growing more stock. Investigate in your own locality. Look the situation squarely in the face and see for yourself that it is an actual condition and not a theory you are facing. Tate. AMERICAN GLADIOLUS SOCIETY. Gladiolus Registration.

About December 1 I received a ship- ment of hyacinths, which were potted and put outside right away. A week or so ago I looked at a few of the pots to see how the roots were growing and found them to be only about one inch long. When should they be brought inside so as to have them in bloom by Easter? What temperature should they have? Do you think that they will have enough roots? E. W. — Mich. Your hyacinths were received quite late. After potting they should receive a good watering and should never be allowed to become dry. A great many growers imagine that one watering should carry them until they are taken in for forcing; this is a great mistake and many instances of poor results in forcing tulips, narcissi and hyacinths can be traced to lack of moisture in the soil. It is of no use to take in hyacinths or other Dutch bulbs for forcing until the pots are well filled with roots. Easter comes April 4 and there is no absolute necessity of your disturbing the hyacinths until three weeks before that date. That period in a temperature of 50 degrees at night should bring them along in ample time. Do not place in a warm house, or they will become drawn; better alow a month in a cold house and you are then sure to have nice, stocky plants. C. W.

Do you know of anything that can be mixed with the soil, either in the compost pile or on the benches, to kill nematodes? The soil in which our carnations are growing is badly infested with them and the trouble is cutting our carnation crop in half. H. B.— Ala. The Louisiana state experiment sta- tion has done a great deal of work in the control of this pest and can prob- ably advise you better than anyone else. Address it at Baton Rouge, La. This trouble seems more prevalent in the southern states, though I am not sure that it is entirely confined to that section. All the cases that have come to my notice have been below the Ma- son and Dixon line. A. F. J. B. SPACE FOB CARNATIONS. How large a space would 5,000 car- nation plants take up and how large a greenhouse would be required for that number? How many blooms would each plant produce and what would the re- ceipts and the clear profit be? M. B.— Can. It would reouire three benches 5x200 to hold 5,000 carnation plants, setting seven plants across the bench and spacing the rows ten inches apart. These benches would hold 4,682 plants, to be exact. A fair average of blooms per plant would be fifteen, depending entirely on your success as a grower. Their market value would depend on prevailing prices in your market and your profits would depend on the quality of your product and your economy in producing it. My advice to you would be to look about you and see how others are faring. If other growers are growing carnations and selling them profitably in your market, you can prob- ably do the same. A. F. J. B. CARNATION TEMPERATURE. "We are sending you two branches from our carnation plants, which seem to be affected with some disease. The shoots, you will notice, cramp and curl. Can the plants have suffered from cold? Our night temperature runs from 42 to 55 degrees, but it might have fallen below 42. In an adjacent service building we keep an automobile truck. Could the gas from the exhaust cause the trouble? R. G.— HI. A range of 42 to 55 degrees is cer- tainly no kind of temperature for car- nations. If you cannot control it any better than that, you can expect but little success in your carnation grow- ing. A range of 48 to 52 is enough latitude for anyone. If those burnt gas fumes enter the greenhouse, they would most certainly affect your crop; the plants would take on a stunted appearance and the blooms would fail to open properly. A. F. J. B. eontains considerable alkali, the effect of which is to a large extent overcome by the use of rain water. However, a strong-growing variety is liable to show the effect of it at this time of year, when during dark weather water is kept off and the plants are allowed to get a little too dry. The strongest plants and those along the south edge of the benches will usually show the ef- fect first. If the plants affected by it are kept a little wetter, they will usual- ly outgrow it. W. J. K. ALKAU IN ROSE SOIL. I am sending you under separate cover some samples of Ophelia rose leaves that are affected with something that has appeared here and there on the plants, which otherwise are growing excellent- ly. There were about two weeks of dark, cloudy weather and since that spell I have noticed the leaves turning this way. I use only rain water to water these plants. Is there anything you can tell me to do to prevent this spreading? I am growing Hoosier Beauty, Ophelia, Columbia and Premier and at this time Ophelia is the only one affected and of it only a few plants, perhaps two dozen in all. B. F. S.— S. D. LETTUCE LEAVES BROWNED. I am sending you a few lettuce leaves, which have turned brown and withered. This trouble has completely ruined my crop. The crop is nearly ready for market and was looking well until all the plants began to go brown like this; they seem to wither and die. Can you tell me the cause of the trou- ble? W. J. L.— N. Y. Judging from the appearance of the sample leaves, I believe that the soil The scorching on the ends of the foliage is usually due to extremely bright weather following several sunless days and the damage is always the worst where the plants are run at a low temperature, say 40 to 42 degrees at night. It is less marked when a mini- mum of 45 to 48 degrees is maintained, with a rise to 55 degrees on dark days. Careful ventilation is necessary; if air is neglected a little too long on a bright morning, serious damage will be done.

(I. 26 The Florists^ Review Fbbbuabt 26. 1920 BELGIAN GLASS FBODUCTION. Increasing at Advanced Prices. In view of the increasing difficulty in securing glass^ orders, greenhouse- men will read with interest the report on the condition of the Belgian glass industry by Trade Commissioner C. E. Herring, from Brussels, under date of January 12. He stated: "The revival of the Belgian plate and window-glass industry continues in spite of the shortage of industrial fuel and certain raw materials, notably so- dium sulphate, and the transportation difficulties. "The average increase in labor costs since the armistice has been 150 per cent, taking into consideration the shortening of the hours with the gen- eral introduction of the 8-hour day. A general increase of ten per cent was re- cently granted, and operatives are now claiming further advances of from ten to twenty per cent. The employers agreed to make some further increase February 1. Ordinary blowers (souf- fleurs) now receive 700 to 800 francs per month in the Charleroi district, while skilled blowers generally receive 1,000 to 1,100 francs per month, the wages of some even reaching 1,500 francs. "In the months following the armis- tice there was a considerable emigration of glass workers to Great Britain, Spain and Switzerland, but this movement has recently diminished and operatives are now beginning to return from abroad. Salaries are said to be higher in the Belgian glass industry than in that of other European countries, although de- preciated exchange and the higher cost of living tend to equalize them. Increased Cost of £aw Materials. "The high export prices now ruling are largely accounted for by the ex- cessive cost of all raw materials; for instance, coal for the furnaces costs 300 per cent more than before the war, sulphates 200 per cent, limestone 400 per cent, wood 400 per cent, packing straw 100 per cent, and refractory earth and other materials for produc- tion approximately 200 per cent. Trans- portation costs from the Charleroi fur- naces to Antwerp have increased about 200 per cent. "At present all of the eighteen win- dow-glass plants in operation before the war are again producing; in nearly all of them, however, only one furnace is lighted, and others cannot be started until regular fuel supplies are forth- coming. Export Figures. "Exports of ordinary window glass, which approximate ninety per cent of the production, rose from 7,152,000 francs in the first seven months of 1919 to 54,359,000 francs at the end of November. In August exports were nearly 3,000,000 francs, in September over 9,000,000, and in October and No- vember 14,685,000 and 20,000,000 francs, respectively. A comparison of export values with pre-war figures is mislead- ing, owing to enormous price increases and exchange depreciation. The rapid revival of the glass industry is better shown by the quantities exported. Thus exports of ordinary window glass in November, 1919, were 13,768 metric tons, as compared with a monthly aver- age in 1913 of 17,130 tons. The Novem- ber figures are in striking contrast to the monthly average for the entire year of 3,108 tons. In 1913 exports of ordinary window glass averaged 228 francs per metric ton; in August, 1919, it was 1,376 frajics, and in November, ],467 francs per ton. Calculating the franc at par in 1913 and at 9 in No- vember, 1919, the comparative export prices are $44.02 and $163 per ton." sprays and fumigated regularly. This year they were aflested the same way. I began to investigate more closely and found a worm in the center of each spike that wilted. So I am breaking out the tops as fast they show any sign of wilting and burning them.

Perhaps readers of The Be- view in the warmer states have had this pest and could suggest a remedy. I would advise sterilizing your soil, if you can conveniently do so. Purchase seeds from a reliable source, of selected colors, and grow your own plants. Seedlings are more vigorous than plants raised from cuttings and are less subject to disease and much more floriferous. C. W. Columbus, O. — C.

B.— Kan. have good stems and are of better formation. Both hail from Holland. All the above are superior to Sylvia and Nymphaea. J. K. Alexander. I find the following varieties of dahlias best from the standpoint of the cut flower trade: Maude Adams leads them all, bearing a mass of blooms throughout the entire season. It is a snowy white, daintily overlaid with a beautiful live shade of pink. The stems are long and of wiry stiffness and the flower stands shipping and makes up perfectly in design work. Darlene, a new decorative dahlia, is a close second. It is a more delicate blending of white and pale pink. The earliness of this variety alone makes it a valuable variety; it blooms fully two weeks ahead of all others. Bianca, the new hybrid cactus dahlia imported three years ago from Holland, proves a leader in the pink varieties. It is followed by Mme. Van den Daele, Frank A. Walker and Delice, all three decoratives of great merit. Mme. Van den Daele is a pale pink, shading to white; Frank A. Walker, a clear laven- der pink, and Delice a live clear pink, the most popular florist 's dahlia. In pure white varieties I find Storm King and White Swan the best of the quilled type, and Princess Juliana of the decoratives. Other good nearly white varieties are Mrs. Warnaar and Baron G. de Grancy, both of which are better than the pure white sorts, but have slight tints of lavender pink. They DAHLIAS UNDEB GLASS. Can you give us information relative to growing dahlias inside f Assuming that we take dahlias which were planted outdoors last summer, have had a rest since September and have been placed in a greenhouse and allowed to become cool, say at 45 to 50 degrees, will the flowers be plentiful enough to make it a paying proposition! When, if planted now, would they come into bloom t K. & S.— Wis. Dahlias such as you have will start all right in a temperature of 45 to 50 de- grees if watered carefully, but they will do better if kept 10 degrees warmer than this until growth is well started. Having planted them under glass on a few occasions and knowing others who have also given them a trial, I cannot recommend them for a greenhouse crop and I am afraid you would find them unprofitable. Dahlias are at their best outdoors when nights begin to get cool. When started in winter under glass they grow freely enough, but the steadily increasing temperature favors growth of foliage more than flowers and. they flower disappointingly. Furthermore, even if they flowered freely, I doubt if you could find a market for them at profitable prices. C. W. Fbbbuabx 26, 1920 The Florists'' Review 27 islation ^nd Le^ol Decision SEIZUBE OF FUEL. Bight of Kallroads. An opinion of the United States Dii- trict court for the southern district of Ohio defines the right of a railway com- pany to seize coal shipments, as against a third person to whom the shipper in- tended to make delivery. The decision answers questions concerning the right of a coal consumer to redress against a railway company which has intercepted fuel consigned to the former. In the Ohio case, Springfield Light, Heat & Power Co. vs. Norfolk & West- ern Railway Co., 260 Federal Reporter, 254, it is decided that where a railway company accepts a shipment of coal de- signed for delivery to the shipper's cus- tomer, the company cannot seize the coal without becoming liable for dam- ages for wrongful conversion. But it is held that where a shipping coal operator is in default under a con- tract to furnish the railway company's fuel requirements, the company may re- fuse to accept for transportation coal loaded on its cars for delivery to the company's intended customer and re- tain the fuel for application on its con- tract with the operator. S. CARE IN WORDINO CONTRACTS. "How Forcible Are Right Words!" One of the targets at which writers have often shot their arrows is the be- fogging use of words. The Bible de- clares that "he that hath knowledge spareth his words," and Shakespeare has commended "men of few words" as "the best men." It is peculiarly fitting that brevity be used in business contracts, but there is a general tendency to too much brevity. It should not be forgotten that little harm can result from prolixity in the wording of an agreement, whereas brev- ity carried to the extent of omitting some material condition may prove eco- nomy in ink at the expense of much money. "A word spoken in due season, how good it is! " A practical example of what may be expected where important business con- tracts are made without a full state- ment of all incidental terms and condi- tions is to be found in a case recently before the Iowa Supreme court. In this case, suit was brought to recover the purchase price of certain goods sold by plaintiff to defendant, although the only real disagreement between the parties concerned the question as to whether the defendant buyer was entitled to de- duct from the price an amount paid by him to cover freight charges. Who Shall Pay the Freight? The litigation was made possible by the failure of the parties to state in their contract anything indicating their un- derstanding as to where delivery of the goods was to be made or as to who should bear the expense of transporta- tion. The controversy would have been avoided, in all probability, had the con- tract borne the simple words, "f. o. b. ," naming either the shipping point or the destination. In the absence of any expressed agree- ment, the defendant relied on a claimed custom in the particular trade under which he was entitled to be reimbursed for the freight charges, and the Supreme court sustains him in this position, say- ing: ' * A party dealing in a trade market is presumed to know all customs of that market bearing upon the transactions in question. Parties who are engaged in a particular trade or business or accus- tomed to deal with those engaged in a particular business may be presumed to have knowledge of the uniform course of that business, and one party may be bound thereby though ignorant, unless it appear that the other party knew he was ignorant." A Ooieral Law and a Trade Custom. In this case the seller argued that the case should be governed by the general rule of law that where nothing is said as to where delivery is to be made to a buyer of goods shipped to him, delivery to the carrying railway company is a constructive delivery to him, especially where he has given routing instructions. The court recognized the soundness of this rule, but held that "while for some purposes delivery to the designated car- rier would become delivery to the buyer, this is not so with reference to which party is to pay freight. On that ques- tion, a direction to deliver to a certain carrier for shipment is not conclusive against the buyer." In other words, a mutual intention that delivery should be made to the buyer at the place of shipping, merely inferred from failure to require the seller to deliver at the destination, will not outweigh a proven trade custom under which the buyer is entitled to be reimbursed for freight paid where nothing has been said as to who would pay such charges.

The Creator's head would bow down in shame. If the name of tlie flower we should ever defame. For the emblem of all truth, love and power Is surely the fragrant and beautiful flower. Flowers are flrst welcome when on life we start, Thegreat token of grief when from it we part. Much happier would be this old world of ours If all who would speak would "Say It with Flowers."

Mr. Dickinson was 62 years old. He had been connected with the seed concern until ill health forced his resignation as treasurer in 1913. His widow, two children, and two brothers, Albert and Charles, survive him. Mrs. Alice L. Winter. Mrs. Alice L. Winter, wife of Her- man Winter, proprietor of the Winter Floral Co., Charleston, W. Va., died in a local hospital, Saturday afternoon, February 21, after a long illness of a complication of diseases. She was 50 years of age. Funeral services were held at West Charleston and the re- mains afterward taken to Newcastle, Ind., for burial. Mrs. Winter is sur- vived by her husband and one son, John Winter, of Charleston. Oliarles Wiegel. * Charles Wiegel, an old-time florist of Leonard street, Frankford, Philadel- phia, died February 19 after only a few days' illness of influenza. For nearly half a century Mr. Wiegel had done a retail business in northeastern Phila- delphia. Phil. J. M. Fontaine. J. M. Fontaine, a nurseryman resid- ing near Linden, Cal., on the Calaveral river, died Friday, February 13, at the Dameron hospital at Stockton, Cal., of pneumonia. He was only sick two days and was removed to Stockton, where everything known to medical science was done to try to save him. Mr. Fontaine leaves a wife and five little children to mourn his loss. PITTSBITBaH, PA. The lilarket. "The largest ever" was the unani- mous verdict of both retailers and wholesalers in reporting the St. Valen- tine's day business, which, unfortunate- ly, included an exceptional amount of funeral as well as holiday work. Vio- lets were plentiful, but there was prac- tically no call for them until it became necessary to reduce the price, which had gone up to $3, back to the original $2 per hundred. Carnations were the only flowers which increased beyond the holiday price, 12 and 15 cents apiece being asked. There were not enough American Beauty roses to supply the heavy demands. Meanwhile the short- age has continued, the embargo caused by snow in the east helping to make a bad matter worse. Fortunately, sweet peas are now particularly good and in fair supply. Olnb Meeting. The February meeting of the Pitts- burgh Florists* and Gardeners' Club, Tuesday, February 3, in the lecture hall of the North Side Carnegie library, was an exceptionally interesting session. Dr. Otto C. Jennings, curator of the Carnegie Institute Museum, contributed a most interesting illustrated lecture on "Florida in Midwinter." Before the lecture, the annual business meeting and election ■ of officers was held. The officers are: President, John Baraet; vice-president, De Forest W. Ludwig; (secretary and treasurer, Carl Becherer. Mr. Barnet is superintendent of J. Den- niston Lyons' Sewiekley Heights estate and is one of the foremost private gar- deners of western Pennsylvania. Various Notes. The marriage of Miss Marion Lang- hans, the only daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Theodore P. Langhans, to Eobert L. Thompson, Jr., of Ben Avon, was solemnized Tuesday evening, February 17. Mr. Langhans gave his daughter away, while the son, Oliver H. Lang- hans, was one of the ushers. The bride's bouquet was of white orchids, valley and lilacs caught with silver rib- bon. Both the matron and the maid of honor carried bouquets of white lilacs, heather, pussy willow and pink roses tied with blue ribbons. One of the flower girls carried an old-fashioned nosegay and the other a wicker basket of rose petals. A centerpiece of spring flowers in the Dresden tints was used on the bridal table. The Thompsons are spending their honeymoon in Cuba. Elmer E. Freeland and John W. Jones liave leased the building on the corner of Liberty and Ferry streets, just op- posite the Wabash railway station. They intend to have their nursery and landscape designing headquarters there. These gentlemen were formerly with the Pittsburgh Tree Co. and started for themselves the first of the year, but ow- ing to the scarcity of office quarters they have been located with the Pitts- burgh Florists' Supply Co. at 618 Duquesne way. Harvey C. SheafF is again able to re- turn to business, following a week^s de- tention at his home with the flu. Mrs. E. A. Williams has just lost one of her most faithful employees, Mrs. Jennie Gunst, who died Thursday, February 19, following a three weeks' attack of pneumonia. Mrs. Gunst, who was about 42 years of age, had been in the employ of Mrs. Williams for over twenty years. Spiro Kaps, manager of the East Lib- erty station's corridor flower shop, left Saturday, February 21, for a two weeks' visit to his former home in Minneapolis, Minn., with his brother, Peter Kaps. John Harris, manager of Harris Bros., has returned to business after two weeks ' detention at his home with an at- tack of the grip. The L W. Scott Seed Co. has moved to more commodious quarters at 500 Liberty avenue and 113 Diamond street. The E. C. Ludwig Floral Co. has an exceptionally fine showing of calla lilies and spring flowers grown at the green- houses at Ludwig station, near Mars, Pa. Edward Earl Ludwig, the junior member of the firm, has been confined to his home with a severe coldr for the last ten days. A. G. Keroes was in the city last week, calling in the interest of the Cli- max Manufacturing Co., of Castorland, N. Y. Milton Selinka was also a recent visitor, representing Schloss Bros., New York. John McClements has returned to business following several weeks' ill- ness with influenza. Michael Steiner and John Jedlico, salesmen for the flrm cf Randolph & McClements, are ill with the same disease. William M. Turner, of Penn avenue, Wilkinsburg, has been a patient in the city Homeopathic hospital for the last fortnight. His condition, which was at first alarming, is reported as being fa- vorable. Mr. Turner's head salesman, William R. Shackleford, is still con- fined to his home. Much anxiety is felt among the friends of Stephen W. Galchek, the well known floral wire frame designer, of 231 Diamond street, who has been miss- ing since January 27. It is feared that he may have been murdered. The daily papers are trying to solve the mystery and have advanced the theory that he might be held for ransom. Mr. Galchek is a native of Austria and came to this country about sixteen years ago. E. E. S. CHIOAOO. The Market. At last the turn has come. After practically two months of unprecedented demand and comparative scarcity of stock, the Chicago market again is in position to fill all orders. Early last week it was apparent that production was catching up with de- mand, or that demand was subsiding to- ward the point where production would be adequate, but the real change did not come until February 20. Up to that time orders were sufficient to consume all the flowers that came to market, without affecting prices. Friday, one of the best of shipping days, proved a surprise because, although mountains of boxes were piled up at the express com- pany's concentrating station, the sup- ply for the first time in many weeks exceeded the demand and prices were attacked. This week opened with an overstocked market. Part of the trouble grew out of the fact that there was no delivery of mail. Monday morning's mail is the heaviest of the week. Sunday was Washington's birthday and the post- office elected to observe Monday as a holiday without giving adequate notice to business interests. How the admin- istration can hope for the support of business houses while treating their in- terests with such little regard is past comprehension. The result in this case was that the mail orders intended to reach the market Monday, for shipment that day, did not reach the wholesalers until Tuesday. Application at the post- office failed to obtain mail. Consequent- ly the only shipping from Chicago Feb- ruary 23 was on standing orders or on telegrams. Many of the wholesalers wired their regular customers advising them to repeat by wire any orders mailed Saturday or Sunday, but there were many letters which did not arrive until too late for the purpose for which they were intended. As city business also was quiet, this week started with the first accumulation of stock Chicago has seen since the chrysanthemums cleared up. The time has come again when the importance of shipping trade is thor- oughly apparent. The first houses feel- ing the necessity of cutting prices were those which depend principally on local buyers. For the last two months every- body has been busy, but last week the principal activity was in the houses that cater specially to the shipping de- CContinned on pajre .'J4.1 The Florists^ Review febbdabt 26. 1920 AGAIN FILLING Supply is greatlyl NOTE ODR REDUCTION IN PRICES Al Headquarters for Lily of the Valley FANCY LONG ROSES In Large Supply BEAUTIES CARNATIONS A new crop coming on — fine None finer in the middle west quality — all lengths. — try and see.

Last week's easing of the mar- ket probably was due to two causes, chief of which was the passing of the epidemic of influenza. The arrival of Lent, while it had some effect, was ot secondary importance and no doubt its influence will gradually subside. The best observers expect this week to be rather quiet, with a gradual increase in demand thereafter. Practically anything retailers want can now be had in Chicago. If there is any exception it is short roses. The demand for these is not nearly so strong as it was while the epidemic lasted, but the price of short roses still is stronger than the prices of the better grades. Any retailer who can use first-class stock can get it at prices which seem moderate by comparison with what the stock has been bringing. Carnations, too, are easier. The prediction is made in many quarters that the supply of carnations this spring will be the larg- est the Chicago market ever has han- dled. Sweet peas are much more plenti- ful than they were. There is a marked increase in the supply of jonquils. A few daffodils are seen. There are few early tulips, but Darwins are beginning to appear. Cattleyas, valley and violets are abundant. Taking the market as a whole, stock seldom has been of better quality than now. Big Business. The Chicago market has had two months of the biggest business in the history of the trade. From the middle of December to the middle of February there was scarcely a day on which the demand did not exceed the supply.

There was a little decline early in February, but prices advanced again as St. Valen- tine's day approached. There are nu- merous growers and wholesalers who took in more money in January than in December. Still more unusual, many houses report that they had taken in more money in February, some days be- fore the end of the month, than in either December or January. In the last four months and a half several houses re- port sales totals equal to the entire sea- son of 1917-18. Nor is the big business at an end. While there has been a slight recession in the demand since Lent began, it is apparent that lower prices, as soon as their existence becomes generally known, will greatly accelerate the de- mand. February 23 and 24 the shipping trade was extremely heavy by compari- son with the city demand and there is every reason to believe that March, AprU, May and June will see a tremen- dous shipping business in the Chicago market. Campaign Starts Next Week. Monday, March 1, will be the date of the inauguration of Chicago's coopera- tive advertising campaign. The direc- tors spent a whole afternoon's session at the Hotel Bandolph February 24 straightening out the kinks preparatory to the start of the undertaking. The automobile campaign February 20 ac- complished a great deal, five automo- bile loads of persuasive advocates scouring the sections of the city where the signatures were not progressing so rapidly as in the others. Fifty retailers have been added to the list since the last meeting of the Allied Florists' As- sociation and the total names in Sec- retary Swenson's hands number nearly 350. It is expected that seventy-five per cent of the trade in Chicago and vicin- ity will be members of the association ere March 1. The next meeting of the Allied Flo- rists* Association will be held Tuesday evening, March 2, at 8 o'clock. Sev- eral features are listed for the occasion which are expected to bring out a big crowd. Albert Pochelon, secretary of the F. T.

PHUiADELPHIA. The Market. The change, for so long expected, is slowly coming. The market is easier, not in carnations or in roses aa yet; that will come later. Violets, calen- dulas, daffodils and sweet peas lead in the decline. The supply is a little larger; the demand is slightly less. Even BO, the market is brisk at high prices. The weather has been so un- favorable that production increases slowly. The arrival of Lent has had little effect on the demand. Good judges agree that it is not Lent that counts now; it is the fact that it comes about the time when production natur- ally increases with the approach of spring. As Easter will be early this year, Lent comes ahead of the first touch of early spring sunshine. The special feature of the market is the value of flowers for the sick room and for use in designs. Easter LUles. As Easter oomes on the first Sunday in April, this coming month, March, will be all-important in securing Easter plants. As the lily is the most uncer- tain of the leading Easter plants, a word on the lily may be of interest. Lilies, taking the whole country into consideration, will not be equal to the demand. From present appearances, Philadelphia will have more lilies than any other place in the country. The lilies here promise to be fine. They will be well timed. Today, with Easter six weeks ahead, some plants are just showing bud. It is probable that Philadelphia can supply the short- age in lilies in the territory within its shipping distance. While the price is high, it will not be so high as last season. What to Orow. Carnations and roses have always been the mainstay of the Philadel- BERGER BROS.

With a view to finding out the proba- ble effect of this change, should it be- come general, Arthur A.

There is large, steady shipping de- mand for carnations, particularly in the south, which it has taken years to build up. Whether this demand could be changed to roses or something else is uncertain. Leo Niessen added to what his brother had said that he knew of a carnation grower whose returns this month exceeded those of any of the rose growers. A Tribute to Mr. Habermebl.

The speaker is Robert Craig. "You know Van and I usually visit the stores in the evening just before Christmas and just before Easter. We dropped in at the Bellevue on the night of Decem- ber 23. Ed Habermehl was there. He had four big decorations on his hands, one at the Manufacturers' Club, two at the Bellevue and Mr. Powell Evans' large ball. He spent half an hour with us, showed us the decorations, talked about them as quietly as though he had nothing on his mind. It was won- derful. Did you know that Ed Haber- mehl was always the last man to leave a job! No matter if he had worked on it the whole night before, he always saw that everything was completed before he left. Ed Habermehl is a grea't loss to the business." The High Prices. "The high prices of flowers have nothing whatever to do with the high prices of other things." This is Ed- ward Reid-'s clear, well defined view. "It is fortunate for the growers that they came when they did, for it will enable them to get by. But they were two entirely separate things, each dis- tinct from the other. The high coat of flowers is due to a short supply and an unusual demand, caused mainly by sickness. Had it not been for this short supply and for this unusual de- mand, prices would not have been 46 The Florists' Review FsBBDAax 20. 1920 BNIL 8CHLOSS, lui^ Pras. and Ttmm.

Mr. Mcllwee, who is lanscape gardener of Fairmount park, talked chiefly on the exhibits. There were six entries of primulas, mostly obconica. George Aeugle has happily recovered from the influenza.

ASHBORNE GOLDFISH & SUPPLY COMPANY Hatcherlcsi Barttn^oa, lovrm; Indianapolis, Ind^ Frederick, Md. 1313 Agency St„ BURLINGTON, IOWA It was considered worthy of note that in the Weekly News Letter of the United States Department of Agricul- ture for January 14 the heading of the principal article is "Less Danger Ap- prehended from European Corn Borer; Experience During Last Season Beduces Early Alarm." The article admits that fl^ld corn is so scantily injured that dis- qpvery is only possible "after the most intensive search"; that "natural con- trol is developing" and that a little pdrasitic fly destroyed as many as SBventy-five per cent of the eggs; that the "menace to the corn crop of the country is minimized by the slight sus- ceptibility of common corn to borer attacks"; that it is single-brooded over most of the country and that "where single-brooded it inflicts no injury what- ever on small types of corn." Having made all these and many more similar admissions in their own publications, the wonder is that such drastic quaran- tining should be deemed necessary by the Department of Agriculture to fight the corn borer. Surely if the F. H. B. is given rope enough it should soon hang itself. Varloua Notes. The dance, entertainment and buffet lunch given by the Gardeners' and Flo- rists' Club in Horticultural hall Febru- ary 17 attracted an attendance of 200, although snow-blockaded streets and railways kept many away. The enter- tainment by Mrs. Robert N. Lister and Constance and Henry Qideon was unique and well merited the enthusias- tic applause received. The bountiful buffet lunch served in the lower ban- quet hall and dancing until midnight helped to make a most delightful and enjoyable evening. Among the visitors who seemed to specially enjoy the danc- ing was Paul V. Fortmiller^ of Newark, N. J. Nearly all ex-service club mem- bers were present as guests. The Anita Specialty Co., at 77 Sum- mer street, is developing a fine busi- ness, and C. Joseph Sloane, the man- ager, states that orders are coming in at a lively rate. Corn borer talk is heard on every hand now. The state will fight the case and the government will be asked to prove its case and show why such a drastic quarantine is necessary. Kidder Bros, are noted for the fine quality of their violets, which are also better bunched than any others coming into this market. Their Freesia Purity is also of remarkable quality, with flowers double the size of any others seen and carried on 24-inch stems.

W. N. C. NEW YOKE. The Market. The supply of cut flowers is now nearly normal for this time of year. Heavy arrivals of bulbous flowers and a greatly increased cut of carnations have relieved the scarcity which has characterized the market for two or three weeks. Prices, in consequence, have fallen to a point which may also be considered nearly normal. Express deliveries are still held up and most wholesalers meet arrivals of consign- ments and transport them to the stores. It is hard to say when this condition is likely to be removed, for it evidently suits the express authorities. There are not too many roses, yet at times the movement of the long- stemmed grades is slow. American Beauty specials remain at the $1.25 pinnacle and the supply available in the best grades is rather slim. Some of the American Beauty growers of late have been taking note of the returns for the special grades of hybrid teas and may decide to cut down the pro- duction of the Beauties, which do not crop so well. The supply of hybrid teas is better, but not what it might be ex- pected to be in February. Short grades continue scarce and this condition, of course, gives impetus to the better grades, although frequently long- stemmed stock is let go at concessions to even up the supply. Prices have been affected by the heavy arrivals of other staples and the range now may be said to be $4 to $25 per hundred, with $35 per hundred for the extra special grades of some varieties. There are plenty of carnations, vastly more than have been arriving for daily market this season. With a flood of other stock, prices of carnations have been forced down to a point more nearly normal, $4 to $6 per hundred now being the range. Cattleyas are quite plentiful, but the quality is nothing to boast of, the bulk of arrivals running to the lower grades. Prices now are within a range of $15 to $50 per hundred, with $75 per hun- dred for selected flowers and hybrids. There is a small supply of oncidium sprays and a few other decorative or- chids. Cypripediums are plentiful, bat the price keeps up, $2 to $5 per dozen fltill being about the range. Gardenias are in only fair supply and appear now to hang fire considerably at $3 to $6 per dozen. A small supply of acacia is available, at $2 to $4 per bunch, and lilac is bringing $1.50 to $2.50 per bunch. Easter lilies are a trifle more plenti- ful, but this is not saying much, al- though prices remain high, $35 per hun- dred for the best. A few rubrums are still to be had, at $10 to $15 per hun- dred. Lily of the valley is arriving in such quantities as to make clearances difficult. The supply now seems to be divided among more than one or two growers and prices are "down to earth," running well within a range of 50 cents to $6 per hundred. It is quite safe to say that more stock is coming than the market demands. Arrivals of spring flowers are heavier, particularly tulips and narcissi.

Various Notes. Some idea of the speculation in real estate being indulged in at present in New York is given by the fact that Thorley's House of Flowers, Fifth avenue and Forty-sixth street, the 21-year lease of which had been acquired by the Tifl&n Products, Inc., «t an annual rental of $50,000, has been reacquired by the owner at a consider- able profit to the lessees, who have never been called upon to spend a cent in improvements, never really having had possession. It is expected that a modern store and office building will be erected on the site. Charles Thorley has purchased the former home of John D. Wing, 16 West Forty-ninth street, a 5-story building, which he will alter to suit his business for a time. He re- cently bought also the Bussell Sage resi- dence, 604 Fifth avenue, at the price of $441,000, and it is possible that he may later permanently establish his business at this address, which for the present is subject to restrictions. It is understood that the alterations at the old Siegel-Cooper store, at Sixth avenue and Eighteenth street, are pro- ceeding apace and will be completed in ample time for the entry of the whole- sale florists May 1. A large part of the mezzanine floor has been secured by Wertheimer Bros., who will install a branch office and carry there the firm's extensive line of ribbons. It is understood that Russin & Hanfling, the florists' supply firm of West Twenty- eighth street, have purchased a build ing on Nineteenth street, opposite the proposed arcade entrance to the new florists' quarters, and, as soon as the necessary alterations are completed.

The wholesale market took a decided slump last week, much to the delight of the retailer, as prices on all seasonable stock showed a big drop. Although Lent is here, the local trade has been kept busy. While the demand for social affairs decreased, there was plenty of other work, especially for funerals, for which the work can once more be done with fresh flowers, owing to the in- crease in supply and decrease in prices. Roses are about the only flowers that have not taken a decided drop in prices, as the supply of Premier, Russell and Ophelia has not been any too plentiful and will not be until the weather ia more steadily clear. Carnations have come down to as low as $4 per hundred, with $0 and $6 per hundred for fancies. GAUX. FERNS LEUCOTHOE Latest Wholesale Prices F. O. B. Johnson City, Tcnn.

With the supply quite large, they are not cleaning up daily, as they have been since the beginning of the year. All are of excellent quality, especially the Enchantress varieties and Ne- braska. Sweet peas and violets are plentiful and are greatly reduced in price. The low price and the excellent quality of the sweet peas clean them up fairly well, while the violets drag somewhat, except the extra fancies. Plenty of good valley and orchids are to be had daily. All bulbous stock is having its season and the best of the daily supply is generally sold out. Anything in greens is selling well. There was a heavy demand last week for bronze galax and asparagus. Flat ferns and smilax have taken a jump. Various Notes. The St. Louis County Growers' Asso- ciation will hold an important meeting March 3 at the Eleven Mile House. The question of joining the national growers' association in a body will come up for action. Secretary Deutschmann expects that the great importance of this meeting will bring out a large at- tendance. The old Valentine greenhouses, in Kirkwood, which have been in the pos- session of the W. C. Smith Wholesale Floral Co. for the last few years, have been sold. This firm still retains possession of the A. H. Ahner range, on Woodlawn avenue, which it has been operating for the last five years, grow- ing plants for the trade.

Secretary Schaff says that the feature of this meeting will be a discussion of "The Cultivation of Orchids" by David Mil- ler and Adam Huber. A large attend- ance is expected. Joseph Frank has again opened his floral department in the 5 and 10-cent store, selling carnations at 10 cents each. He will add other stock from time to time, as the price comes down enough for him to sell at 5 and 10 cents, all that he is allowed to charge. The membership of the St. Louis Florists ' Club has reached the 200 mark and some of the workers say that they will make it fifty more by June 28, when the club celebrates its thirty-fourth an- niversary. Grimm & Gorly expect to open their new store by the end of March, in time for Easter. The new store, which is three doors west of the old one, is being fitted up with the finest of fixtures. "Werner Bros., of Clayton, Mo., have been on crop with carnations since the beginning of the year and reaped a harvest during the high-price season, as all of the cut was of excellent quality. Their rose crop is about coming on. The houses are in charge of Charles Roper. The local plant growers will be well prepared to supply blooming plants for Easter. Among them are William Schray & Sons, George B. Windier, the Bourdet Floral Co., Albert Denger and John Held. They say that bulbous stock will be especially plentiful this year. Mrs. Theodore Miller will entertain the Lady Florists' Home Circle Wednes- day, March 10, at her home on Delmar boulevard. Julius Schaeffer and Edward Steitz, managers of Vandervoort 's floral de- partment, after a busy week decorat- ing Exhibition hall for the automobile show, took a flying trip to Chicago, where they looked for supplies and plant stock for Easter. The big show windows of Grimm & Gorly, the MuUanphy Florists and Fred Foster are featuring a fine line of blooming plants of all descriptions. The annual fur auction sales and the automobile show brought them a great deal of good business. The "Say It with Flowers" Bowl- Eventually you will buy Bragues' Cut Ferns None quite so good L. B.

This house is the largest that has ever been contracted for by this company. WASHINGTON, D. 0. The Market. The supply of stock has shown a fair in- crease during the last week and prices have dropped a little in some cases. Car- nations have dropped to $15 per hundred, sweet peas to $4 per hundred. Orchids are bringing 75 cents to $1 each. Some good daffodils are coming in and clean up at $8 per himdred. Tulips and Paper Whites are bringing $10 per hundred. There has been a scarcity of Asparagus plumosus during the last week and otSer greens cleaned up well. The rose supply has not been good. The demand for funeral flowers is still on the increase. Many of the local flo- rists have been crowded with funeral work, due to the loss of a number of the city's most prominent men. Various Notes. George Shaffer reports business extraor- dinarily good. He has a number of large weddings booked for this month. His entire force is kept busy with funeral work and the orders continue to pile up. E. C. Mayberry, of the Du Pont Flower Shop, is back on the job again after his long illness. Arthur Niessen was in town February 19. R. Bowdler has been unusually busy with funeral work. G. v. 8. Oyster Boast for Club. The Washington Florists' Club will start the new club year with an old- time oyster roast. During the war, the florists of the national capital refrained from their usual gaieties and adopted a resolution postponing all of their big entertainments. It was recently dis- covered that there was a tidy sum available for a real entertainment and J. Harper Hetherington, manager of the Washington Floral Co., was selected to make arrangements for an oyster roast to be given at the greenhouses of that ■company, at Alexandria, Va. The date set is Saturday, February 28. The trip to Alexandria is to be made in automobiles, the procession forming at 5:30 p. m. in front of the store of the S. S. Pennock Co. When the members reach Alexandria, they will be taken in charge by David G. Grillbortzer, president of the Washing- ton Floral Co., a guarantee that the €vent will be a successful one.

FUBNISHES FOLDERS. Aids Members in AdTortlsing. In order to spread the gospel of tele- graph delivery among the benighted public, the Florists' Teleg^raph Delivery Association has prepared a quartet of leaflets which it is furnishing to its members at a surprisingly low figure. It is so low because the association is having the leaflets printed in a million run in colors, all except the retailer's name, which is imprinted on them after his order has been received. Secretary Pochelon has already received orders for more than a quarter of a million of them, in response to the single letter which has been sent out telling mem- bers of the project. Since they are suitable for use at any time of the year, the folders are being ordered in lots of from 1,000, or 250 of each, up to as high as 16,000. Attractively Printed. The covers are printed by the 3-color offset process, reproducing attractive designs prepared by Hilmer V. Swen- son & Co., Chicago. One is devoted to an explanation of the F. T. D., another to telegraphing flowers to sick friends, another to telegraphing them as gifts and another to telegraphing them for birthdays and anniversaries. The in- side of the folder is illustrated by a sketch, carrying out the idea of the brief story printed on one page. Space is allowed for the retailer 's name, which is printed in when his order is received. Less than 100 members have sent in their orders, totaling over a quarter of a million folders. YSThen the number of responses reaches the expected figure, the story of telegraph delivery wiU be spread broadcast. WEALTH IK A WINDOW. The window display shown in the accompanying illustration should have a strong appeal for both nature-lovers and those who relish the expensive. Anyone passing along Powell street, San Francisco, in front of the store of the Art Floral Co., would be tempted to pause even on the most urgent errand and gaze at the delicately contrasted colors of the cattleyas and their gray- green background of moss-covered oak branches. This is the store which has a 3 -months-old leopard, still so kittenish and unsophisticated that only a chain is needed for its restraint. ^w^y ij^ f:m. '\ 4^'^ .>-^-4^¥ -^•■' />/■ *^:' LIGHTINO THE SHOW WINDOW. Window Orchid Display of the Art Floral €<>., San Francisco. Opporttmities Overlooked. Selling experts have estimated that from thirty to fifty per cent of a store 's sales are made through its windows. Putting it the other way around, the retailer who neglects to take proper ad- vantage of the advertising and selling power of his window loses just that per- centage of possible sales. Some may question the accuracy of those percent- ages, but few will question the intrinsic accuracy of the point involved. If the percentages appear too high, reduce them, halve them if you will, and even then where is the florist who would rest complacently, knowing he was prevent- ing an addition of from fifteen to twenty-five per cent to the volume of his business, through his indifference to the advertising and sales-producing value of his windows! For the retailer who wishes to make the best use of his windows, the first step should be to set down a figpire rep- resenting the appraised value of the windows. Putting a value on the win- dows, if done fairly, will in itself serve to give a new respect for their impor- tance, and until the retailer does come to look upon his windows as having a definite and considerable dollars and cents value, he will not be in the right frame of mind to plan intelligently and enthusiastically regarding ways and means for making greater use of their service. That such calculation is a real and actual valuation, is demonstrated by the value put on their windows by va- rious leaders in the merchandising field. It is reported that Charles Stevens & Co., of Chicago, value their windows at $150,000 a year; E. H. Macy & Co., New York, $100,000 a year; Filene's Boston, $106 a day; Saks & Co., New York, $50,- 000 a year; Famous-Barr, St. Louis, $10 to $25 per day per window, according to location. What Oood Lighting Does. The purpose of window lighting, as of the window itself, is to arouse upon the part of the observer a buying desire for the goods on display. As an object is seen by the light it reflects, rather than by the light thrown upon it, it is ob- vious that it is only when the lighting is of the proper intensity and color, as well as when the light comes from the correct angle, that it may be said to be contributing its full efficiency as a fac- tor in selling. The lighting in many windows falls below that standard; far, far below, in numerous instances. The reasons for that condition are legion. Many, perhaps most, retail florists are not aware of the improved lighting ar- rangements and devices available for their use. Few mercliants in any field Febbuabt 26, 1920 The Horists' Review 69 florist* whoa* eaxda svPMtf on the iwros cmrtyinm thim lioad* ar« proporod to fUl orders '"-*-- from otber florist* for local deUTcnr on tlie xunal basis. have arrived a"; a full understanding of the actual character of the service which the display window performs. The show window is as a stage and the goods on display are the actors there- in. Logicians may condemn that simile on the ground that inanimate articles of merchandising are not comparable with the living, breathing actor. The fact re- mains that the florist who adopts the stage manager's point of view with re- gard to the problem of window lighting and dressing will find himself well on the road towards getting the full sell- ing value out of his windows. The good stage manager conceals the mechanism of his lighting; he allows only the ar- tistic effects to be seen and enjoyed. He does not annoy his audience with the distracting and painful effects of visi- ble light and unscreened lights or glare. Most important, perhaps, of all, he does not depend for his effects upon a flow of light from any one source or direc- tion; he makes use of border lights, foot lights, flood lamps, bunch lights and spot lights; withal, he is economical in his use of light, wasting none of it in borders or flies or in the auditorium. He uses reflectors to place the light where it will do the most good. Further- more, he makes use of backgrounds, stage properties and lighting all to one end, to bring out the work and personal- ity of the actors. And the florist who works with the same intelligent effort to bring out through good lighting the attractive features of the goods on dis- play may depend upon it that his win- dows will contribute their share to- wards the success of his selling effort. Effect on Merchandise. Profiting further by observing the methods of the stage, the shrewd florist will not permit the use of mirrors in his windows in any position where their reflection of light will annoy the ob- server. He will study the background of his window most carefully also, aim- ing to make use of colors that will en- hance the appearance of the merchan- dise. Backgrounds of dingy grays or dark colors appear dull, no matter how much light is thrown upon them. Light, vibrant colors help bring out the desir- able colors of the display. The light of 5,000 candles hardly is sufficient to enable one to thread a needle that is held against a steel gray background, but one-half of one candle power is sufficient to enable one to do the job easily when the needle is held against a white background. So let it be recognized at the outset that while the effect of light on merchandise is itself positive and direct, the visibility of the merchandise is subject to control and modification by the character and color of the background. Because an object is discernible only insofar as its color is distinguishable from that of the background, light and color must be de- pended upon to emphasize such con- trasts. Emphasizing Colors. Without color the window dresser's art would contribute little or nothing to the making of sales; it is, in truth, his most effective tool. Nevertheless, recog- nition of the possibilities of electric Flowers -or- Plants ^ >^m illMlki.; Whi ic Flowers or plants, which shall we florists push the most? Jimmy, the Hibernica Hybrida, with his ear to the cash register, says: *'Push flowers, there is more money in them. Plants last too long." Tom, the Scotchman, says: "Sell folks what they want; then they will want more of the things you sell, whatever you have to sell." Suko, the Jap, says: "In Japan, flower shops sometimes much show make plants in pot. Sometimes all flowers, in vases tilled. Then sometimes, again, flowers in vase, plants in pot, same like outdoor garden look to be. "Some day one sell most. Some day other. Most days sell most of both. ' ' Which, after all, you see, is only another way of saying what Tom said. What do you say? New York's Favorite Flower Shop Fifth Avenue at 58th Street lighting in the rendition of color is in no sense general, not even today. All too many merchants are prone to regard the window lighting equipment as some- thing too sacred to be changed under any circumstances — like the firm name. Flowers of all kinds and colors are dis- played in such windows under identi- cally the same lights, regardless of the effect produced. In the light of the regular Mazda lamp all the colors of the spectrum oc- cur, but the red and yellow rays pre- dominate somewhat over the proportion of those rays occurring in normal day- light. For that reason when a display is shown under these lamps, the reda, browns and yellows are emphasized, ap- pearing correspondingly stronger than when seen in daylight.

Or if red light be employed, the effect will be to make the contrasts between red and the other colors in the display all the more acute. In procuring such color effects it is necessary, however, that the screens or lamps be selected accurately; any old piece of colored glass picked out at random vpill not give the desired results. For daylight effects in lighting, excellent results can be secured by using what is knowoi as the Mazda C-2 lamp, in which the filament is encased in a special blue glass bulb designed to screen out some of the light rays which are, in the ordi- nary lamp, present too abundantly to simulate good daylight effects. How- ever, screening out some of the light rays tends to reduce somewhat the total amount of light supplied by these lamps, the reduction being reported as amount- ing to from thirty to thirty-five per cent. That, however, is inevitable, re- gardless of the medium used; so it should be the practice to use lamps of Furrow & Co.

Proper Intensity. However, the color of the light is not all; it must be also of the proper inten- sity and fall upon the goods from the proper direction. Both of those points are vital and merit careful attention. The intensity of the light best suited to illuminating a display is regulated by the color and character of the flowers and also by the brightness of the sur- roundings. The importance of that sec- ond condition can be illustrated by re- ferring to the sickly illumination sup- plied by an automobile headlight when in competition with daylight. By the same token, show windows located on a brilliantly lighted street require a much higher lighting intensity than is Qyality and Promptness Members F. T. O. \^ ^ The Avenue Floral Co. S442 ST.

That other and more directly responsi- ble factor in deciding the intensity of the light — the color and character of the stock — varies somewhat with each -change of display. Dark colors absorb a greater percentage of light and re- flect less of it than do the light colors; and, as an object is seen by the light it reflects, the light colors are more easily viewed.

What has caused the shortage if not demand! There are as many growing establishments as ever and, as far as is known, practically everyone is running to full capacity. At any rate, there are no more idle than is always the case. Has any particular glut been recorded since the campaign started? Was not every market bothered with periodical gluts before we became active with our publicity movement? The Washburns are right. The greatest good will come later. Demand will not be allowed to exceed supply for long. Production is already increasing and will naturally continue to increase. We must expect it and we must prepare for it. All Should Subscribe. In spite of increased labor cost and advanced cost of materials, have grow- ers ever enjoyed as good returns for their products as they have recently? Yet, the growers, as a class, have not supported our campaign to the extent expected of them. They evidently have not given our movement the serious thought it deserves. They have been content to profit through the better movement of their products brought about by the campaign, without con- tributing to the expense of the work. The subscriptions from growers should be on a par with those from other sec- tions of the trade. The campaign can be active only so long as those who are to reap the bene- fits will share in the expense. Subscrip- tions are not coming in as they should and it is unfair to ask those who sub- scribed a large part of the expenses last year to contribute more than their share again this year. With the great num- ber of florists to share in the benefits, it should not be diflScult to carry the funds to the amount required by the commit- tee, $100,000. Is this such a great sum to raise among 20,000 members of the trade?

Just so with business. In order to succeed in business, there are certain essential rules that must be followed. It is not always the wealth a man has which characterizes him a success so much as the fact that his business sa- vors, first, of honesty to his customers and then of service, consisting of all the word implies.

If you were to investigate their methods of progress, you would find that one of the predominating factors that loom up big is their view regarding the proper use of advertising and publicity to keep flowers ever in the minds of their patrons, so that they do not have to wait for certain occasions to sell flow- ers, but are doing business all the time. Now, whenever you find a florist doing business all the time, you will readily grant that there must be something underlying the principles of this type of busy man. Generally you will find, also, that whenever a movement is on foot for further development, this busy man is ready to help the project with his purse as well as his heart, and the combination spells success.

Taking into con- sideration that the business has been in existence only since August, 1919, this is highly satisfactory. "Do not spend your time wondering why a black hen lays a white egg! Get the egg! In other words," observed Ernest Ashley, of Allentown, Pa., "don't waste time and energy inquir- ing into the causes of advanced prices on cut flowers, but push sales and show purchasers that they are getting full value for their money. Granted there is such a thing as a limit, at the same time sentiment cannot be com- puted in dollars and cents; in fact, with the classes being elevated, the higher the cost, the stronger is the sentiment."

STOLL ' Member Bro., Allentown, Pa., commented npon the boons enjoyed by the trade in the various labor-saving devices now pos- sible in the growing end. "We have automatic coal carriers, stokers and traps; now, if we could get some auto- matic workers in the houses who would be as reliable and helpful as the ma- chinery, the combination woiild be im- mense." More roses and less carna- tions will be grown next season. John H. Sykes, of Allentown, Pa., spoke favorably of present conditions, having big business, more than the aver- age supply of stock, an artistic sister to do the fine work and a good range, kept thoroughly up-to-date. E. N. Eroninger, of Allentown, Pa., may be proud of the report that the finest carnation seen here this winter came from his place. New life has been injected into the Hoffman Greenhouses, at Elmira, N. Y., since Frederick J. Gantz returned to his old post as grower. Albert Hoffman, son of the founder, ia also distributing "pep" around the place and the busi- ness is becoming lively. H. M. Hoff- man, who declined the nomination for mayor, having served six terms, is giv- ing more time to the nursery dpartment and attended the farmers' week gather- ing at Cornell University. Grower Gantz is producing the best crop of car- nations seen in this vicinity. He talks interestingly of his experience as a grower in Florida, where the lack of potash caused him to quit. Superintendent Eichard King, of the United States Cut Flower Co., Elmira, N. Y., is justly proud of the record shown throughout the entire season and is decidedly optimistic regarding the future, both from a grower's and a re- tailer's point of view. The big range showed a fine stock of rose and carna- tion cuttings and of roses in 2V4-inch pots — Mock, Hoosier Beauty, Eichmond, Shawyer, Columbia, Sunburst, Premier and, last but not least, Killarney, for Mr. King does not think that the old favorite will be discarded for some time to come, when the quantity of cut and quality are considered. Carnations show the effect of close picking and a big crop is in sight. Laddie will be grown more next season. Some 15,000 stocky plants are being held for own planting. Mr. King says that the best plants will DETROIT 1 Orders given best of care by these fire F. T. D. Members J. Breitmeyer's Sons Broadway and Gratiot Ave. Fetter's Flowers 17 Adams Avenue E.

Austin, who has been a bulb grower, plans to under- take the growing of general florists' stock. PORTLAND, ORE. The Market. There was no great change in the market last week. Florists are all busy and are using all the flowers they can secure. Owing to the great number of funerals which occur daily, on account of the flu and other causes, it is almost impossible to get stock enough to meet the demand. Spring flowers are plenti- ful and are bringing good prices. Potted plants are moving in good shape, for the reason that cut flowers cannot be had. Various Notes. The Portland Floral Society met last week and had a good attendance, but there was little business to transact, ex- cept in regard to the rose festival. The range of Clarke Bros., on Thir- tieth avenue and Forty-eighth street, was badly damaged by fire last week. The fire apparently started on the roof of the boiler houses from sparks from the smokestack. One of the green- houses was destroyed and two others badly damaged. The "toiler room was totally destroyed. Albert Clarke suf- fered several cuts and bums about the hands and arms in an attempt to fight the flames. The loss on buildings, equip- ment and plants is estimated at about ♦3,000. L. T. S. LOS ANGELES, OAL. The Market. Business continues excellent, with a scarcity of stock in almost all lines. Both field and greenhouse carnations have again advanced in price, owing to the big shipping demand for funeral work and also the local call. Daffodils are much scarcer than usual at this time and it is a daily conundrum at the wholesale houses to make 100 take the place of 200. Freesias are a little more plentiful, but the price has not been shaded; the Rainbow types are coming in slowly. Roses are becoming a little more plentiful, Beauties especially, but the demand still exceeds the supply. All small flowers are scarcer and are high in price. Greens have made an- other jump and are hard to obtain. The rain at the end of last week was too late to be of much help to the vio- lets, but it was welcomed for the other stock. Club Meeting. At the meeting of the Los Angeles Florists' Club, at Christopher's, Feb- riinrv 12, the fi)l lowing members were I present: W. Armacost, F. B. Hills, H. Eeeve Darling, C. Gutting, Roy Wilcox, F. Lichtcnberg, S. Purdie, A. F. Borden, A. Knopf, F, Reymon 1 and F. Warner. The following offift'is were elected: President, Walter Aruiacost; vice-presi- I dent, Roy F. Wilcox; secretary, A. P. Borden, and treasurer, H. Reeve Dar- ling. Further meetings will be held the second Thursday of each month at 6:30 p. m. at the same place. Various Notes. Fred Dostal, who for some time has been on the staff of Howard & Smith, has gone back to J. W. Welters'. George J. Hall & Co. have contracted to take the whole cut of bulbous stock from C. A. Brazee, of Wilmington, one of the largest growers of this class of stock in this vicinity. F. Sperry, of the L. A. Floral Co., is in bed with a severe cold. Walter Armacost, his wife and two children are all down with colds. A. A. Hart, of Cleveland, O., is visit- ing in the city with his wife.^ He ex- pects to stay a few weeks and will make a tour of the ranges in the vicinity. The Redondo Floral Co. reports the busiest season on record. The three partners, A. F. Borden, A. Knopf and F. Reymond, and a full crew of assist- ants have been on deck early and late. Wright's Flower Shop is making a fine showing of Phalsenopsis Sohil- leriana, also fine cattleyas from the greenhouses. The Superior Nursery Co. is opening up another large dahlia garden thu year, indicating that Charles Gutting has plenty of faith in this popular flower. H. B. Richards. SAN FRAN0I800, OAL. The Market. A general shortage of flowers was re- ported last week. Not only roses but carnations and daffodils are becoming scarcer and higher in price. The demand for carnations was such during the middle of the week that the price went up to $1.50 and $2 per bunch and many orders went unfilled.

Mention The Review when yon write. usual amount of funeral work has re- sulted in a strong demand for them from all over the country. With the exception of the crops of one or two growers in this vicinity, the rose supply is considerably smaller than the demand. A few of the nurseries are cutting from the second crop now, but most of the growers will be obliged to wait another week before their roses are ready. In the meantime the price remains high, with a big call for roses both in San Francisco and from out-of- town customers. Daffodils are scarcer and higher. The first crop is nearing the end and it is expected that the quantity will be slightly less than the demand until the next crop is ready for cutting. Almond blossoms, both pink and white, now occupy a position of prom- inence in the retail shops, which report a ready sale for stock of this kind. A few of the rarer flowering shrubs and fruit trees have made their appearance also, but most of the blossom stock is still gathered from the almond trees. Acacia blooms have been particularly fine this year and have been extensively shipped with good results. The demand for Oregon grape foliage is big tliis season and the distributors of this stock clean out each shipment in short order. Orchids are still fairly plentiful, but retailers state that they are selling a satisfactory number of the blooms at $1.50 each." The only new arrivals on the market last week were a number of potted camellia bushes in various colors, white, pink, deep rose and variegated. Various Notes. A new florists' shop has been opened at 1237 Polk street, between Sutter and Bush streets, by M. L. Bartev, who also operates a shop at 1757 Fillmore street. Mr. Bartev makes a specialty of wed- ding and table decorations and intends carrying a comprehensive stock of pot- ted plants, ferns and hanging baskets. The new shop opened with an attractive window display of cut flowers and fruit baskets. The workrooms are conven- iently arranged in the rear of the store. There is also a basement, where Mr. Bartev intends to make his own reed baskets, etc. Mrs. Copeland has been busy with table and funeral work and reports a big demand recently for bon voyage baskets developed in her own original manner.

The convention of fruit jobbers, which was recently held in this city, was the stimulus for a considerable amount of floral work. A dance was held during the session at the Hotel St. Francis, the decorations being done by Julius Eppstein. All the ballrooms of the hotel were used for the event and were appropriately decorated in grapes, apples and acacia boughs. Some particularly fine specimens of almond bloMoms were secured by Julius Eppstein last week. The single flowers measured almost two inches across and the texture of the blooms was . espe- cially heavy. J. A. Axell is shipping quantities of acacia and spring blooms with good re- sults. He reported a heavy demand for violets for St. Valentine's day and is now disposing of a considerable amount of hyacinths and tulips on the bulb. The rose crop of the E. W. McLellan Co. is arriving now, a large part of the cut being shipped out of the city. The Ophelia buds are in excellent shipping condition and the Bussells and Cecile Brunners are also in good shape. Man- ager Avansino says that the late daffo- dil crop is showing promise and will probably be ready for cutting soon. M. C. Main, bulb grower of Santa Cruz, Cal., was a visitor in San Fran- cisco last week. The United Flower & Supply Co. is finding it difficult to meet the demand for carnations. This firm is cutting from a big crop, but, together with the shipping trade and local orders, the Bush street depot cleans up on carna- tions each day before all the trade is supplied. This firm also reports a scarcity of maidenhair and asparagus ferns, which is confirmed by the state- ments of many of the other wholesalers. The firm's cut of freesias and daffodils is good just now and much of it is being shipped away.

Mr. Domoto stated that last week's demand for camellias was on account of the Chinese New Year cele- bration. Mr. Domoto expects to have some double-flowering plum aoon, as well as a fine crop of Darwin tulips for cutting. S. Enomoto, of Enomoto & Co., has just received a large shipment of mats from Japan. His company is shipping large quantities of spring flowers and it is expected that the second rose crop from the Enomoto nurseries will be ready in a few weeks.

Various Notes. Albert Barber added one more store to his chain when he leased the prop- erty of Willard Calhoun, 13336 Euclid avenue, for twenty-five years. There are a greenhouse, store and residence on this property. Mr, Barber takes possession of the place March 1 and intends to live in the residence. The general offices at 2120 East Fourth street will be moved to the new place. Willard Calhoun, one of the pioneers in the business, has been located there for the last twenty-five years and through his hard work and efforts has worked up a steady trade, which has enabled him to retire. Louis Kitzerow has opened a florists' shop at 3623 Lorain street. He former- ly had a saloon and restaurant at this location. Leonard Metzger, formerly with "Wilhelmy's, is taking charge of the designing and decorating for him. The sympathy of the trade is extend- ed to Frank Shoen on the death of his wife. Harston & Burder have opened a florists' store at 3161 East Forty-ninth street. Mr. Burder was formerly em- ployed by William F. Hanna, on Ninety- third street. H. P. Knoble is gradually recovering from the effects of an attack of the flu. Mrs. Knoble is reported in a critical condition with the disease. Albert Wilhelmy has moved to his new store on Clark avenue, a few doors east of where he was formerly located. S. H. Wilson, of the Wilson Seed Co., Columbus, O., was a visitor last week. L.

Increases of small size are made in retail prices for 1920 on muskmelon, summer and winter squash and tomato seed. The high price of onion sets and the low price of onion seed will result in a large increase in the acreage for sets at Chicago this season. Adolph Kruhm, secretary of Beckert's Seed Store, Pittsburgh, delivered a lec- ture on "Vegetable Gardens" before the Horticultural Society of New York, Feb- ruary 18. There is a big retail mail order de- mand so far this season, exceeding the expectations of many concerned, but it has not yet resulted in stiffening the wholesale market. Whether the high rents in the large cities have caused so many to buy their own homes that the resulting back-yard gardens will boom seed orders, is a ques- tion given consideration by some retail seedsmen. The Philippine Seed Co., 363 Calle Baon, Manila, gains splendid returns from advertising, using a number of various sizes of s^dvertisements in Progressive Agriculture, a local paper printed in both English and Spanish. Betail prices for vegetable seeds for 1920 are less in most cases than in the last two years, the greatest reduction be- ing for cabbage seed. Marked reduc- tions are also shown in beet, carrot, onion, spinach and English and Swede turnip seed. The widely known firm, Dobbie & Co., Edinburgh, Scotland, has transformed its business into a private limited liability company, with a capital of £50,000, or at normal exchange approximately $250,000. The management remains unaltered and the partners, Messrs. Cuthbertson, Fife and Bumie, continue the same. The American Mutual Seed Co., Chi- cago, sends to agricultural seed buyers a 16-page house organ called Advance Seed News. It is gotten up in newspaper style, but practically everything in it is propaganda or direct advertising for the publisher. Judging from the size of the pile of mail sacks, a large edition is printed and distributed widely. WHEN TITLE PASSES TO BUYEB. Previous to Actual Delivery. Upholding the right of plaintiff to re- cover damages for defendants* failure to furnish seed potatoes of a kind bar- gained for, the North Carolina Supreme court lays down the following principles of sales law applying to the selling of flowers, nursery stock, seeds and other commodities: It is not essential to a passing of title to goods sold that physical possession be given the buyer.

HAMPTON CO., 17 Battery Place, New York, N. Y. Mention The Review when you write. goods are shipped by the seller as soon as the seller ships them under a straight bill of lading in which the buyer is named as consignee. But, even where title passes to the buyer under such bill of lading, he is en- titled to an opportunity for reasonable inspection of the shipment on its actual arrival. And if it proves to be inferior to what he has bargained for, he may reject delivery without becoming liable for the purchase price. Furthermore, in such case he is entitled to sue for dam- ages, measured by the difference be- tween the contract price of the goods and their higher market value at the time and place agreed upon for delivery, in addition to recovering any money paid down on the purchase price. (Eich- ardson vs. Woodruff & Sons, 100 South- eastern Reporter, 173.) The Goods Had Been Accepted. But a decision of the California Dis- trict Court of Appeal, in the case of American Steel Pipe & Tank Co. vs. Hubbard (183 Pacific Reporter, 830), shows that a buyer's acceptance of goods may preclude him from asserting a misrepresentation by the salesman as to the character of goods to be deliv- ered. In this case plaintiff sued to recover the price of a lot of oil orchard heaters sold to defendant. The defense was that the heaters did not come up to the standard of a sample exhibited to her at the time she gave the salesman an order. The court finds that the evidence failed to establish this defense, but adds that, in any event, defendant could not assert any difference between the sam- ple and the heaters delivered, because she accepted delivery and distributed them throughout her orchards after full opportunity for inspection. The court says: "While the court, in our opinion, upon sufficient evidence, found the goods were of the class and kind pur- chased by defendant, nevertheless, hav- ing opportunity to inspect the same, even were they different from those con- tracted for, she, by accepting and using them, must be deemed to have waived any objection on account of the heaters being otherwise than as represented by the seller." Limits of Warranty. Another point on which defendant was defeated in this suit relates to the question of warranty. She claimed that there was a breach of an implied war- ranty that the heaters were so con- structed that water would not leak into them during rain storms. The contract of sale contained no reference to the quality of the heaters in this respect, TROMP BROS. SUCCESSORS TO QERRIT SKQERS WHOLESALE BULB GROWERS LISSE.

Theodore Kuebler reports business more quiet last week. He is still cut- ting some chrysanthemums. He has some fine cinerarias and primulas. The Blackman Floral Co. is cutting a large quantity of flowers, for which the demand is heavy. Leo Price, of the Lockyear Floral Co., who was injured in an automobile accident ' several weeks ago, is again able to attend to business. Eoyston & Fenton report a heavy de- mand for coleus and Easter greeting pelargoniums. Karl Zeidler is cutting good roses and carnations. He has a large batch of geraniums in 4-inch pots, also plants of all kinds for the spring trade. Mrs. J. C. Elspermann has been hav- ing a big demand for funeral work and for flowers and plants for the sick room. E. L. F. Great Falls, Mont. — The Electric City Conservatory made a special advertis- ing effort for St. Valentine's day and reports by far the biggest business for that holiday in the firm's history. In fact, it was so much better that no com- parison could be made. Bulbous stock and spring fl9wers were plentiful and there was a strong demand. Heart- shaped boxes, baskets, dolls and cor- sages found ready sale. Chas. A. Bur- rell thinks the successful advertising matter of the S. A.

SPEELMAN & SONS E.td,udieerimental nursery 6f his own, where he has been carrying on ex- periments in hybridization for several years, has closed a deal for additional land, to be used exclusively for growing roses and shrubbery and for rose seedling beds. A Pasadena nurseryman who imported 500 grapevines from New York state was surprised when the shipment was refused entry by Horticultural Inspector Thorn- dike on the ground that the roots of the vines showed evidences of having been attacked by the phylloxera. The importer thought that grapevines in California were generally affected with this pest, but was told that in southern Califor- nia, at least, it was not prevalent. PBESENT TRADE PROBLEMS. Presented by Earl D. Needham. The summary of nursery trade con- ditions and problems at the present time contaifi«4-in the address of Earl D. Needham, retiring president of the Western Association of Nurserymen, at the Kansas City convention was one of the best that have been made. John Watson, executive secretary of the A. A. N., said he wished every nurseryman might have an opportunity to read it in full. The most important parts of the address follow: "The nursery industry of today is one of specialists. No longer does the nurseryman take his customer through his establishment and assemble his pur- chases as he goes along; system has now taken the plaoe of this haphazard method. No longer does the average nurseryman boast truthfully, *I grow all the stock I sell;' specialists have taken his place. "It has been determined that the climatic conditions of certain places per- mit the growing of a better shrub than can be grown at other localities, where possibly fruit trees, evergreens or strawberries do best. This has resulted in most nurserymen specializing on the lines that do best in their territory and prove most profitable to them. Some of these nurserymen are growers only, leaving the distributing to others who speciaUze in that part of the work. Thus we have the wholesale and the retail men, both interested in the same identical thing — the planting and grovf' ing of more trees, shrubs, etc. "These retail nurserymen, whether they sell through catalogues or sales- men, are supposed to be the distributors of all the stock produced, not only by themselves, but also by the strictly wholesale men. With this arrangement in effect as it now exists, does it not become apparent to all that a close re- lation exists between the two branches of the nursery industry and that neither branch may be, or become, independ- ent of the other without disturbing the whole scheme of affairs f If this plan, whereby the producer of the stock leaves to the retailer the task of dis- tributing his wares, is most profitable for us, as it has proved to be in other lines of merchandising, then, can the factory be a stranger to the sales force.

What have yoa te cell or ezohan^T AMERICAN FORESTRY CO »PeaiiMii«,Wis. 116 The Florists' Review Fbbbdaby 26, 1920 at a price which nets the seller a hand- some profit. The price which ten months ago seemed unreasonably high, now ap- pears low. However, it must be remem- bered that the prices quoted then, for stock to be delivered this spring, con- templated every business cost that has developed in the meantime; therefore no money has been lost by those early sales. It is more than probable that had not those early sales been con- summated, the present high level of prices would not yet have been reached. Early sales have reduced the supply available for the late buyer, who wishes to secure his retail orders first, then buy what he needs to fill them. His frantic efforts have no doubt been some- what responsible for the latest price increases. Surely the grower cannot argue that his business, even though secured at a higher price, is more profitable to him than that of the early, dependable and regular buyer. "It is thought by some of the best informed nurserymen that while there is an apparently small supply of stock available at wholesale, nevertheless there are in most items sufficient quan- tities available to fill all retail orders. "This line of reasoning, if correct, is due to the fact that wants were covered earlier this year than usual and that the retailers have been slow to unload any unsold stock, anticipating that they may need it themselves. The growers have been cautious about overselling and may possibly be undersold, so that by spring it is possible that an actual surplus may exist. If this condition develops and any fruit stock this year is burned, each of us will appreciate more than ever the need of the factory and sales force, or the grower and dis- tributor, getting closer together, so that each may better understand the needs and problems of the other. Close co- operation will prevent many losses. Price and Volume. "The same 30-inch box still holds approximately 300 apple trees, which only a short time ago represented a wholesale value of $15 to $25, while now the invoice will likely read about $100, Therefore, when sales are doubled it is still possible that the volume or amount of stock used is cut in two. "Retail men are thoroughly sur- prised in comparing present stock re- quirements with those of a few years ago. While the same 30-inch box now costs twice what it formerly did and while the labor to fill it has doubled in cost and freight and express in- creased twenty-eight per cent to thirty- five per cent, still, when the value at retail of this box filled is considered, a big reduction in operating cost is seen. "It costs less today than ever be- fore to pack, box and ship $100 worth of apple, cherry or other fruit trees. Some price increases are at present un- warranted. "Holding firm to a fair price, re- fusing to be stampeded into demand- ing unreasonable prices and, whenever possible, offering a reduction to bring the price to a fair and normal basis, will do more to stabilize the business now and to save the profits which are now being made from filling a brush pile deficit in the near future than any other policy, especially one of over- looking the interests of the planter in order to get the last possible penny now.

BALTIMORE. The Market. The market this week is much the same as it has been for the last two months, as regards both supply and prices. It is just a matter of each morning filling orders that have accumu- lated from the previous day. Then there is no stock left and the rest of the day is spent in filing orders, subject to procuring the stock, for the next day's business. The last few days, which have been bright and clear, have increased the supply somewhat. Eoses, carnations and sweet peas have been in a little bet- ter supply, but not in large enough quantity to relieve the shortage or to alter prices. Calla lilies are coming a little better, but all bulbous stock still remains scarce. One reason given for the shortage of bulbous stock is that it has been im- possible to get it out of the ground, where the growers have it buried, on account of the extremely cold weather, since it is frozen in so hard that it is impossible to get it out. This may be a good reason, but it would look as though proper care had not been exercised in burying the bulbs last fall. While this winter has been cold, yet there has been many worse ones and we have never Ittard this excuse before. If bulbs are buried in ashes, there should not be much trouble in getting them out; the writer has done it in much worse weather than we have had this winter. Some of the retailers are beginning to think that the growers are following a line of least resistance; that is, they are deriving as much from their short crops as they would from a normal one, and are satisfied. St. Valentine's Day. St. Valentine's day should have been one of the bit flower days of the sea- son. Flowers had been well advertised. Everyone was just as busy as he could be and sold everything he could get. But when it came to valentines, the business was by no means what it should have been; with violets at $4 and $5 per hundred and carnations at $3 and $4 per dozen, the public did not send floral valentines. We advertised in the magazines that a floral valentine is the "open sesame to a woman's heart"; that it is the smallest investment with the biggest re- turns. But when we ask the man of business instinct $4 for a dozen carna- tions, to say nothing of roses, is it any wonder he does some thinking before he decides on flowers? February 14, 1920 was not what it should have" been from' a valentine standpoint. A Chat with a Wholesaler.

There is no doubt that Mr. Olick has been giving the matter of prices much serious thought, and I feel that he has the right idea. Various Notes. John J. Perry, of the S. S. Pennoek Co., who was ill with pneumonia, is com- ing along finely and at this time is able to be up and about the house. But it would seem that troubles never come singly, for when Mr. Perry began to get better his good wife was taken down with the same trouble, and at this writ- ing is extremely ill. Ferdinand Guerth, also of the S. S. Pennoek Co., is on the job again after a spell of pneumonia. There is one grower in our midst who has the courage of his convictions. M. Eilpert does not feel that the shortage of stock this winter is due entirely to weather conditions and his aim is to have more of it for next winter. With this object in view he is now making arrangements for an addition to his range, on Belair road, of a house, 35x200, for carnations. We all know that building materials are high, but so are carnations, and before you can have rabbit potpie you must first catch your rabbit. Tate. CINCINNATI, O. The Market. Last week showed little change in the prices of stock. Eoses maintained the prices of the week previous. The advent of bulbous stock was thought to help matters, but we have not reached the point where supply equals demand. Un- til that time comes, no perceptible change will take place. Carnations are of good quality and, while this city and its suburbs and the nearby Kentucky towns have a great many carnation growers, the demand of the local trade, in addition to the heavy call from southern cities, has kept the market on the short side. Carnations are a great favorite in southern cities; everyone seems to have roses in his garden and, in consequence, people are partial to carnations.

Februaby 26, 1920 The Florists' Review 121 Hamburg Late Pink Chrysanthemum -^'nAtahuTg Late Pink is an im- proved late pink Maud Dean, having' moi'e petals and, if grown for late, will hardly ever show an open center. The average grower of Chrysanthemums must have varieties which are easy to han- dle, and from which he can cut as near 100% of perfect blooms as possible. Hamburg Late Pink has been grown for the last four years, and produces a very high proportion of good flowers. It is not an exhibition variety, but for late pink is one of the best for commercial purposes. It can be ha 1 in bloom the latter part of November, by tak- ing an early bud, but some of the flowers will show open centers. By selecting late buds, after October 1, most of the flowers a.re cut during December, and would advise to select late buds, as the later buds will hardly ever show an open center, and some flowers can be had even in January. Keeping Qualities are excellent and where a graceful pink flower is wanted, Hamburg Late Pink cannot be surpassed. This photograph was taken December 28, 1919, and will give a good idea of what HAMBURG LATE PINK looks like when grown to single stems and planted six inches each way. Hamburg Late Pink will be disseminated in the Spring of 1920. Plants will be ready March 1,. 1920, and all orders will be filled in rotation.

It may be on other plants, but so far is not conspicu- ous. It resembles the red spider, both in appearance and effect on plants. It is minute, almost invisible lO the ^aked eye and seems to have a filmy web like the spider. The shape is longer and more slender than the spider and it not only runs nimbly, but squirms as it crawls. It is the color of weak tea and almost transparent, but without any of the dark spots so characteristic of the spider. I have tried washing the plants with tobacco water and spraying with cold water under heavy pressure, but the results are not encouraging. It may be something common, but it is not green fly, white fly or red spider, though the affected leaves look like the work of the latter. It, however, does not confine itself so closely to the vein ridges as the spider, but roams rather freely. F. B.— Minn. According to the description of the in- sect, I am of the opinion that it is thrips. The best remedy I know of is to spray the plants with Hammond's Thrip Juice No. 2 according to direc- tions. To be effective the spraying must be done thoroughly, especially un- derneath the foliage. M. P. Eutland, Vt.— Baker's Seed House, of which S. A. Baker is the proprietor, has opened a flower store.

My house is 12^x60 feet and is made cf sashes. It is seven feet from floor to ridge. It lies at the east side of another house. The walls are four feet high; the east side has eighteen inches of glass, the north end adjoins the boiler pit and working room and the south end is glass. I have a S-section, round boiler rated at 1,100 feet of radia- tion; its top is about eight inches be- low the greenhouse floor. The smoke fltie has an 8-inch grade and a 22-ineh diameter. The boiler has two 2%-inch outlets and two 2% -inch inlets. I wish to keep the house about 40 to 45 degreea when it is 30 degrees below outside. How should I arrange the heating for this house f Please tell me also how I should take off the flows from the boiler so as to heat the next house, which I intend to pipe later on. This house is 17^x60 feet, eight and a half feet from floor to ridge and of the three-quarter-span tjpe of construction. Its walls are all good. I should want to keep it at about the same temperature as the first house, using both of them for the grow- ing of plants. I have 480 feet of 1%- inch pipe and 150 feet of 2-inch pipo OB hand. A. P.— Cim. One 2%-inch supply pipe will answer for the narrow house, but a somewhat larger pipe should be used to supply the wider one. However, since the now and return outlets are only 2%-inch, it will answer if 2V^-inch connections are made with the boiler and 2-inch pipee are taken off as soon as possible to serve as flows and returns on the east side of the 17yi.-foot house. Run a 2-inch flow pipe on each side plate of the narrow house and at the farther end connect each of these flow pipes with a return coil under the side benches. Five 1%-inch returns will be required on the side where the wall is exposed and four returns on the other. In the 17%-foot house, after taking off a 2-inch flow pipe for the plate on the east side, carry the 2%-inch flow to a point opposite and about two feet below the ridge. There take off another flow and continue the main flow as a 2-inch pipe to the west wall plate, where it should be continued to the farther end of this house. This will provide three 2-inch flow pipes. Con- nect each flow with a coir of 1%-inch return pipes, using four returns in the west coil and three in each of the others, unless the house is in an ex- posed location, when it will be well to run four pipes in the center coil. NUMBER OF FLOWS. We are erecting three short-span houses of the A. Dietsch Co., as shown in the sketch sent you, and should ap- preciate some information regarding the heating system and arrangement of pipe, so that we may maintain a night temperature of 60 degrees. The houses will be 14%x225 and will be eight feet to the gutter, with six feet of glass in each wall. The houses are connected and there are solid benches throughout. We intend using 2-inch pipe.

From the size of the Jdpe, it might be inferred that hot water 8 to be used, but as condensation is to be returned to the boiler, it is evident that steam is to be used as the heating medium. For low-pressure steam, a 5-inch steam main should be used until the supplj ph>e8 to the first house have been taken oft, when it may be reduced to 4-inch and then to 3-inch for the third house. To heat each of the houses, run a Black Coal Help Save the "White Coal of Industry" The boiling hot water resulting from condensation in your steam lines is worth money. You have paid for it in terms of coal. It contains valuable heat units. It is the "White Coal of Industry"— it should not be wasted. And it need not be wasted. The Morehead Back- to- Boiler System will save it for you by returning it to the boiler at temperatures as high as 400 degrees Fahrenheit. It reduces coal consumption an average of 20%. At the same time your steam will be "drier" and more efficient; your production speeded up and profits increased.

For the coils, use three 2-inch returns on each of the outer walls of houses 1 and 3, which have six feet of exposed glass. As we understand the construction of the houses, there are no partition walls, in which case it will answer it a 2-inch main is run each way on each of the inside lines of gutter posts, with two 2-inch returns on each side of these posts. There will then be four 2-inch flows running in each direction, with fourteen 2-inch re- turns, there being five returns in the middle house. Instead of using 2-inch returns, it is preferable to use four 1%-inch returns on each of the inside rows of gutter posts. All of the returns should be kept three feet above the floor of the greenhouses. Were it not that the wa- ter level of the boiler is so close to the level of the greenhouse floor, one of the returns might be carried in the in- side walks. AMOUNT OF PIPE. ^ We are sending a sketch of a green- house, 25x85 feet. The side walls are three feet of glass and three feet solid. The south end is a salesroom, while the north end is solid. The twenty-five feet next to the boiler room is also solid. I should like to install a new hot wa- ter boiler and should like to know how much pipe would be necessary and what would be the best arrangement of the pipes so as to have a temperature of 60 degrees in zero weather. The house runs north and south and is well pro- tected on the west side. The twenty- five feet of space at the north end is occupied by ground benches, the rest by raised benches. Should the boiler be below the ground level? What, at present prices, ought this outfit to cost installed! B. M. C— O. To heat the house itself, about 1,100 feet of hot water radiation will be re- quired for 60 degrees and it is probable that 100 square feet additional will be needed for the salesroom. To provide for this, as well as for the mains, the 'boiler should have a rating of at least 1,500 square feet of radiation, particu- larly if soft coal is to be used. With most boilers, this will mean a grate containing about six square feet. Five 2 Mi -inch flow pipes should be •^ Heat Bulletin On that Boiler Prob- lem— we invite a consultation.

If pos- sible, it would be preferable to run these through both rooms, but as it may not be feasible to run these returns through the north room, with its solid beds, it may be necessary to connect these returns at the partition between the rooms with a 4-inch return main and carry this at, or near, the floor level along the west wall of the north room and join it to the boiler. If the coils from the south room can- not be continued through the north room, a 3-inch overhead flow should be run through the 25-foot house and, Febbdxby 26, 1020 The Florists^ Review 129 "IT LETS THE FLORIST SLEEP" QIBLIN GREENHOUSE BOILER Several hundred phrases were submitted in our PHRASE CONTEST, but we were disappointed that none of them had sufficient merit to be used.

February 15 put the finishing touch *to olir starved market. A heavy snow storm came up Saturday afternoon, Feb- ruary 14, and continued all night and Sunday. With this there was a ripping wind, and Monday was a stay-at-home day for all growers on the outskirts of the city. The train traflic also was im- paired, so that shipments came in a day late. Some roads were out of commis- sion longer. But when things look their worst, a change takes place. The demafad for funeral flowers has fallen off a great deal and the sun has put in an appear- ance, so that everybody is now banking on a much better supply of stock soon. Various Notes. Paul Galley, of Gardenville, has been elected a trustee of the Union Fire Co. The influenza has abated to the stage where it is no longer feared. The at- tack has been light in this city. About May 1 the Fillmore Flower Shop will locate at Fillmore avenue and East Utica street, in a new building now under construction. This location will be a few doors from the present quarters. W. J. Peake, of Walden avenue, has put up an attractive sign. At night it is undoubtedly the most vivid in the city. F. P. A. Kenosha, Wis. — Since the death of her husband, Mrs. W. H. Drake has sold the greenhouse property.

LANOASTEE, PA. Club Meeting. The Lancaster County Florists' Club held its monthly meeting in the Chamber of Conmierce rooms February 19, with President-elect W. B. Girvin m the chair. After some discussion it was decided not to raise the membership dues and also that ladies should have full membership privileges. The club was fortunate in having as a speaker F. S. Bucher, who has aided 80 many Lancaster county farmers in increasing the fertility of their soil. He gave to the club much valuable informa- tion on the value of legumes for coyer crops and their worth in supplying nitrogen, and also on the value of limo and its appUcation. In short, it was the best talk the club had heard for Bome time. ^ The club expects to attend the JNew York flower show Thursday, Mardh 18, leaving Lancaster at 6:05 a. m., giving members four or five hours at the exhibi- tion. Members contemplating going should get in touch with Albert M. Herr, RGcrGt&rv. Elmer J. Weaver, with some other flo- rists of the county, had visited G. W-. Kerr at Dovlestown, Pa., where the W. Atlce Burpee Co. grows its winter-flow- ering sweet peas, and made an exhibit at the club meeting of Mr. Kerr's new varieties. , . ., xt Owing to the proposed visit to the Xsew York flower show, the March meeting will not be held. Various Notes. B. F. Barr has purchased a piece of valuable store property on West Orange street, between Queen and Prince streets. M. J. Brinton is cutting freesias and daffodils of exceptional quality. Some fine pans of early tulips grown by Thos. R. Fries are finding a good market. Harry A. Schroyer was confined to tlio house with an attack of grip, but is about again. Frank A.

Though the flu epidemic lias subsided, the death rate stays high, due to pneumonia. Sevo^a,kflorists re- port a number of pre-Lfentenj weddings. The cut flower trade continues to be dull, due largely to the high prices. St. Valentine's day and Washington's "birthday trade was reported good by most of the local florists. Various Notes. Philips Bros., 938 Broad street, report that their St. Valentine's day business was the largest since they have been in the trade. Many telegraph orders helped to swell the total. The amount of the individual orders was higher than usual. Henry A. Strobell, Broad street, had an attractive Washington's birthday window display, in which baskets of cherries played a conspicuous part. E. B. M.

Prevailing weather conditions are such as to insure a heavy increase in production. Prices, therefore, are al- ready much lower and the outlook for the retailer much brighter. Business keeps brisk. The influence of Lent this year is only small in regard to house parties and other social affairs. Bulb- ous stock, sweet peas and freesias are of fine quality and plentiful. Variotis Notes. The Jacob Schulz Co. and the William Walker Co. have been exceedingly busy. Everybody in both stores was on the jump and stock moved faster as the increased supply came in. At the greenhouses of Marret & Mil- ler, on Cherokee road, the stock of Easter lilies is progressing in nne shape and expectations for a good crop for Easter are high. B. Hamilton, O. — B. G.

Is the Rose Bug Doomed? II there exists anywhere around this sec- tion a more cantanlseroua bnite — one that you cannot ixmsibly have a sympathetic feeling for. ■B In the old way, you drop blm Into the can o( oil — than the Rose bug, we don't know of It. him or her. You go over your Roses In the dewy mom or at nearly twilight and gingerly pick or shake him and her off the Roses until you can't see a last one remain- ing^—but he and his wives and family (or their close relatives) are back again on the job next day about as numerous as before, doing their spiteful best to disflgure and de- stroy your Rosea. Once we thought we had a remedy. Fifty young chickens one day found their way down to big old Crimson Rambler, just when the bugn wen> coming tn the surface. What a glorious time those chicks had that day I The second day they were not so keen on the Rose bug food. And the third day they abso- lutely refused to go anywhere near. How- ever, that Summer that particular bush (which was Isolated from the Rose beds) was little troubled. This 'Story Is just en iMSsant. Seriously, any eradicator of the Rose bug pest will be hailed with joy by commercial grower, private gardener and amateur, what- ever be the form it may take or the labor It may entail. We follow with a letter from Mr. Wohlert. an old and esteemed subscriber for The Ex- change, and wish only to add our hope that the preparation he mentions will be made known to the oommercial man before the Rosa bug makes its next appearance. Editor The FlorlsU' Exchange: Rose bugs ai« surely dlfflcult creatures to get away with and up to the present It has been almost Impossible to ellmhiate them. Therefore, perhaps, you may be pardoned for your comment in your issue of Jan. 24, upon a remedy for Rose bugs in a manner which cannot but leave the impression that such a rwnedy or this particular remedy. Is of but Uttle Talue In ridding our Roses of this Inju- rioos insect. I hold no brief from the orig- inator or Introducer of this remedy, but hav- ing known the originator for many years and having watehed with great Interest his en- deavors to perfect his remedy, I feel qualified and justified In sUtlng that his remedy not only is an efOdent one from my viewpoint, but know that It has been severely tested by many men well known to the trade who would not vouch for its merits as they have done were the remedy not a most excellent one. It seems to me that your comment was not exactly proper, at this time, inasmuch as we should encourage any helpful endeavors to •sdst horticulture, and I am sure Mr. Barclay, the originator, should, by all means, receive a vote of thanks from all horticulturists for doing something for us which has heretofore not been done, particularly as he did not allow the remedy to be marketed until It had been tested out by such authorities M Theo- dore Wirth, J. Horace McFarland. Butvau of Entomology erf Pennsylvania and others — this relieving buyers piuchaslng a pig In a bac I have no financial Interest In this prepara- tion, but know It to be of oommercial value, also I understand a New York seedsman has thought well enough of it to pay a good price for It. A. E. WOHLERT. Narbeth, Fa. The product of a private gardener, Mr. Hugh Balfour Barclay, of Merion, Pa., to whom horticul- ture owes an everlasting debt for his discovery. Mr. Barclay conducted exactly 872 experiments before he was satisfied that his product was really effective and good enough to be placed on the mar- ket, assuring the public of an article which fulfilled every need demanded of it. In 1919, samples were sent to the most eminent Rosarians and Horticulturists in America for tests, and all have voiced their approval by word and letter. To the skeptical ones, we will gladly mail copies of written testimonials. MELROSINE while destroying the Rose bug does not leave a blemish or spot on the flower, nor has it any odor.

Tbe Market. Florists are still busy and are in the same position as before with regard to stock; that is, they could handle more flowers than they are able to obtain. The death lists are now much smaller and the flu is rapidly decreasing. Still there are many demands for designs and the florists are using their ingenuity in making them up to stretch the available stock as far as possible. In spite of Lent, there are a number of receptions and other social affairs and there are many orders from this source. The opening of the federal parliament in Ottawa next week has taxed the ca- pacity of the Ottawa florists and many orders have been booked with Toronto florists for supplies of flowers. There is little change in wholesale prices except for carnations, which have advanced, and mignonette, which has advanced for first-grade stock. Various Notes. There is still a considerable list of florists ill. J. J. Higgins was ill for a week. Mrs. J. J. Higgins suffered a re- lapse and is again under the doctor's care. John H. and Frank Dunlop are both laid up with the flu. Mrs. G. "W. Warren is recovering from the flu, as if also W. J. Hoath. 'Much sympathy is expressed for Mr. and Mrs. Charles K, Cooper, who lost their only child, Doreen Helen, aged 14 months, of pneumonia. The regular meeting of the Garden- ers' and Florists' Association was held February 17. It was decided to support the effort to have a botanical garden established in or near Toronto. The Ontario Horticultural' Society is also supporting this scheme and a delega- tion from Toronto University has al- ready waited on the Ontario govern- ment, urging that such a project be taken up. The plan is finding favor with florists generally. The next regular meeting of the Gardeners' and Florists' Association will be held March 16 and the annual social March 9. The Toronto Eetail Florists' Club will hold its regular meeting March 8. J. J. H. m?j??j??^?MWMJ>j>w»»»»»»j»?i»M»M»wr. Hotbed Sash PRICES RISING Order today and save money Made of No. 1 Gulf Cypress.

"X" also prevents the lime and other scale-forming elements in the water from depositing layers of Scale on the walls. "X" keeps the boiler Rustproof and Scaleproof. "X" does not evaporate or lo^e its strength with age. When new water is added it combines itself with this water and performs its functions again and again.

I Although a few more varieties of iflowers are appearing, the market, as a whole, is in but little better condition than last week. Boses remain scarce ;and high-priced. Carnations are a little more plentiful, but by no means ;adequate. Bulbous stock is more in evidence. 'Fuchsias are getting quite plentiful and jonquils, daffodils, hyacinths and am- aryllis are also seen. Calla lilies are in good supply and are good property, because of the great demand for fu- neral work. Sweet peas are in constant demand, but are limited in quantity. The terrible scourge of sickness con- tinues and the death rate is high. Flowers are in constant demand for both purposes and everyone is kept busy filling orders and the entire stock of flowers is i>tilized. Potted plants are greatly in demand for sick i^ooms. Among this class are cyclamens, primroses, begonias, cin- erarias, jonquils, daffodils and hya- cinths. Social functions have been few lately, due to the epidemic of influ- enza, and the demand for corsages and decorations has been meager." Never- theless, small flowers have had their place and have been readily sold. Vio- lets, sweet peas, freesias, orchids, pan- flies, calendulas and baby roses have all been good property. Various Notes. The March meeting of the Indiana State Florists* Association will be held at the Smith & Young Co. commission house, March 2. The main topic for discussion will be the entertainment and provision to be made for the F. T. D. at its next meeting, which will » be held in Indiana]>oli8, October 14. Frank Sachs, a former Indianapolis florist, died in Iowa of the influenza. John Hartje, a cousin of the deceased, went to attend the funeral. Some of the local stores had attrac- tive window displays for Idncoln's and Washington 's birthdays. Good reports are being heard from the sick. A. F. J. Baur's children are considerably better; the Schwomeyers are able to be up again. Charles Rio- man is again at work, Martin Nelson is on the job again and others who have been off for a few days are im- proving. Because the two night firemen went to sleep on the job, the large boiler at the greenhouses of B. F. Hensley, Knightstown, Ind., was damaged by the intense heat, causing a heavy loss. E. ^ T. Gordon, Wis. — Mrs. L. E. Meyer has been doing a large business in ever- greens, including wreaths, roping and branches, as well as moss and cones. Hanover, Pa. — S. M. Eudisill, who has been specializing in asters the last two years, plans this coming season to grow them much more extensively and also to grow roses and a few other flowers in addition. Westervllle, O.— The Glen-Lee Place, conducted by V. W. Lee and Mrs. Mary E. Lee, handles coal in addition to its florists ', seed and nursery business. Mrs. Mary E. Lee writes the column, "Town and Countryside," in the local newspa- per also. now lar^e lawns are kept in fine condition Cutting large plots of grass with hand mowers is a tedious, expensive Job. Liabor is scarce and its cost is high. As a conse- quence, many large fine lawns have deteri- orated badly during the past two years. Not so, however, with those who have an Ideal Power Lawn Mower to do the work. For one man with an Ideal can easily cut as much grass per day as Ave hard work- ing men with hand mowers. And he will do the work better. Advantages of the Ideal The Ideal is a power mower and roller In one and the sod is rolled every time the grass is cut. This keeps it smooth, firm and free from bumps. The Ideal is scien- tifically designed to keep lawns in fine con- dition. The weight is Just right for steady year around work. The Mower has a thirty-inch cut and one man can easily mow four or five acres of grass per day at an operating expense of about fifty cents for fuel and oil. Cuts Close to Walks, Trees and Shrubbery Machine turns easily and will cut close up to walks, trees, flower beds and shrubbery. When running over walks, driveways, pavements, etc., the operator simply lifts the cutting mower from the ground by means of a conveniently placed lever. This feature Is also important in the early spring when it is desired to use the ma- chine for rolling only. Simply lift up the cutting mower, add more weight If re- quired and you have the most convenient power roller imaginable. The success of the Ideal is due to its sturdy and powerful, yet simple, construc- tion. No clutches or complicated parts to wear and get out of order. The motor is built in our own shop and designed espe- cially for the work. Owners of large estates, public parks, golf clubs, country clubs, cemeteries, etc.. are all using the Ideal Tractor Lawn Mower with great success. Special Cutting Mower for Putting Greens For work on golf courses we furnish, at slight additional cost, a special set of cut- ting blades for use on the putting greens. In less than five minutes the regrular 30" blade can be substituted for cutting the fairway. When desired, we also furnish, as an extra, a riding trailer which fastens to the frame and permits the operator to ride and at the same time have the same easy control as when walking. You can secure the Ideal through your dealer direct or from our factory. Write today for catalogue and further details. IDEAL POWER LAWN MOWER COMPANY 424 Kalamazoo Street R. E. OLDS, Chairman.

They are indispensable for tying up Hyacinths and all other plants you now tie to a gtake with cord, and so simple a child can apply them. Simply grasp "tie" between the fingers, slip it around the stake, draw the plants into position and press the "tie" together; the leaves hold it in position. By using "Wire Tie" you eliminate that most tedious of all florists' work, tying up plants with cord. We are selling to 80 per cent of those asking for samples and want to add you to our list.

EVERTITE GLAZING CEMENT will stand the extreme expansion and contraction that a greenhouse is subject to and will not check or crack — nor will it harden. EVERTITE GLAZING CEMENT applied with a new "Oh Boy" Gun (see cut above) makes an ideal combination. This gun, which is the last word in glazing guns, allows Evertite Glazing Cement to flow in a uniform consistency all the time. Note the ease with which this gun can be handled.

Stapp Co.y of Rock Island, Illinois, orders three more All Steel Greenhouses, 34x300 The Stapp Company have been buying greenhouse material and building greenhouses off and on for thirty years. They used to buy materials years ago a good deal like most florists did then, the heat- ing pipes from a local dealer, the glass through the local jobber, and the millwork from us. Then they would hire some local carpenters and after many vexatious delays and mistakes the greenhouses would finally get built after a fashion. They do it in a different way now — they simply give us the contract complete and we turn the houses over to them ready for them to wheel the soil in the benches. Troubles and worries are over and the job is done right. How about having us handle your job this way? JOHN C.

Flowers always give encouragement and cheer. YOUR FLORIST nnd several hundred others in and about Chicago are offering flowers at reasonable prices today. ALLIED PRODUCTS COMFANY or ILUNOU changed here with us the same as they change every spring, not only with us- but with other florists. Bulbous stock, and sweet peas especially overloaded the market and a great many of the flower buyers disappeared south. Iiv consequence, flowers are more plenti- ful, because there are not so many peo- ple to buy flowers. "We should utilize this condition to encourage the middle classes, who while- flowers are at their highest point get away from us and who to a certain ex- tent buy only for the most necessary occasions, to buy flowers as they used to, not only as a luxury but as a neces- sity to their well-being. For this rea- son we ran this ad in the New York papers. ' ' Use the Occasion. Some florists have taken the oppor- tunity each year at this time to move large quantities of stock at popular prices. But the number has been too few. This year the trade needs such action on the part of not a few, but many florists, not alone in the cities but also in the small towns, everywhere that flowers are plentiful. There is an especial occasion this year, the oppor- tunity to win back the patrons driven away by high prices, to draw into the flower stores still others, those who are spending money but not for flowers. Moreover, such action is needed this year to maintain prices, first, that they may not fall so low as to make the last two months' figures seem exorbitantly high, and, second, to give a return that will make growing possible at present high costs. For the sake of the entire trade, prices should be held as firmly as possible, else the recollection of January purchases may make buyers ap- ply the word profiteering, not a welcome epithet to either retailer or grower. And to maintain an adequate supply of flowers, which means an increased .supply next year, prices must be kept up in order to make the construction of new greenhouses seem profitable at pres- ent building costs. Firm prices can be had by moving large quantities of stock tc the public at reasonable figures while it is abundant. The example has been set and is successful. Every florist can help. MICHIGAN FLORISTS' SHOW. Second Shot in the Co-operative Campaign by Chicago Florists. At First Annual Meeting. At an executive meeting of the Mich- igan State Florists ' Association, held at the Michigan Agricultural College February 16, it was decided to hold a spring exhibition of cut flowers, potted plants, florists' supplies and anything pertaining to the florists' trade or 'hor- ticulture in general, at the Michigan Agricultural College, East Lansing, March 16 and 17. A banquet will be held on the evening of March 17. Prom- inent speakers will be present. The ladies are especially invited. Special invitation is extended to the ladies' auxiliaries of the various florists' clubs of the state to attend in bodies and hold their meetings in Lansing at the same time. This being the first exhibi- tion and annual meeting of this new and hustling organization, tho executive committee will appreciate it if you will make a special eflfort to bo present and to exhibit if possible.

Koehler, of Frankford,Pa., commenting on the prevalence of blind growth in hydrangeas, thinks it is pos- sible that the long dull period may have much to do with it, as he fails to re- call having had a similar experience in the growing of thousands. Fred Kalmbach, grower for William Wunder, of Pittville, Pa., advises tak- ing cuttings now, later potting into 3- ineh pots and then into bulb pots or planting in the field. He believes that this overcomes the tendency to blind- ness. He has no use for old stock. It was noted that a fine lot looks promis- ing for Easter. 0. Doerrer & Sons, of Westfield, N. J., are carrying a fine lot of Carna- tion Enchtuitress Supteme. "We re- fused an offer from the New York market for 30 cents apiece for the crop, needing all for our retail trade," ob- served Charles Doerrer. "To offset this, our Golden Spurs are producing but one spike to the bulb and mother bulbs at that." Augustus Tremper, of Rhinebeck, N. Y., had a large crop of Marie Louise violets for St. Valentine 's day and made his customers happy by not advancing the price for that occasion. W. M. USINGER'S UTTERANCES.

Sweet peas are in fine shape and freesia a are being used to fill the shortage in other stock. Easter lilies are coming along well and will be on time for Easter. The entire stock produced is for Williams the Florist, on Michigan avenue, South Bend. Mr. Buckler, of the South Bend Floral Co., South Bend, Ind., was lauding the virtues and sales possibilities of canary birds and birdseed. I do not know whether the smiling Mr. Buckler is an economist, but his comparison of the eating of bird seed by canaries and fish food by the humble goldfish is 100 to 1 in favor of the canaries. A bird eats a pound of seed a month, while a gold- fish eats a 10-cent box of food a year. Figure out the profit in birdseed. Van Aken Bros., Elkhart, Ind., were receiving some fine roses from three greenhouses in Coldwater, Mich. "Our only trouble is getting enough stock," commented Miss Olson, in charge of the store. The Wakarusa Greenhouse, at Wak- arusa, Ind., in charge of Charles M. Fletcher, is showing some nice ciner- arias and primroses. Plans are in prep- aration for a large aster season. Mr. Fletcher has excellent land for grow- ing quality asters. W. T. U. added another Dodge to his automobile fleet, making a total of three cars. The business has shown a continued increase throughout the season, with a liberal cut arriving from his own greenhouses. A matter of much concern to the florists of Kansas City, Mo., was the recent poisoning of three of the em- ployees of the W. L. Rock Flower Co. by pricking their fingers on thorns of White Killarney roses. L. Willis was poisoned December 23, and it became necessary to amputate the infected finger. He has not yet recovered. Wil- liam Miller has been laid up with an in- fected finger for some time, caused by the same thing. He was called before the medical board for examination; the board stated that the infection came from the fertilizer and was dangerous. William Huts is now in the hospital with the same infection. Mr. Rock is anxious about his employees and ad- vises that the matter should be looked into to determine the source of the in- fecting germ. The doctors found the germ in Mr. Willis's finger and com- pared it to the germ in veast. J. A. L. LAMBERT'S LOCALS. The well known firm of Gentemann Bros., of Quincy, 111., has been dissolved by mutual consent, Philip Gentemann retiring and H. A. Gentemann purchas- ing his brother's interest and continu- ing the business at the same location, 714 Main street. Mr. Gentemann has moved his working force from the greenhouses to the store and by concen- trating his efforts shows considerable improvement in his service. He has GREENHOUSE FIBES. Brazil, Ind. — Fire of an unknown origin caused a loss estimated at $.300 to the greenhouse of G. E. Hershey, on Walnut street, February 17. Belleville, 111. — Considerable damage to the boiler room of A. Fehr's green- houses, on Main street, was caused by fire recently. An overheated boiler was- the cause. Springfield, O. — The greenhouse be- longing to Thomas McBeth, East High and Burnett road, was almost totally de- stroyed by fire February 14. The fire ignited in the rear of the greenhouse, which wa,s partly destroyed before the fire department arrived. fl?i^T».~^''^«sr'*™.''>^^v^^--^^'^ "* -"^Jr^'* 24 The Rorists^ Review Mabch 4, 1020 BXnU) WISELY AND WEIAm. The Season Why. My aim in the last few weeks has been to get the growers throughout the country to think over the matter of ia- sufficient production of flowers. That production has been short of demand is an admitted fact. Now, the only point to be considered is whether this shortage was only temporary or whether the de- mand for cut flowers has gone beyond the actual source of supply. It is time for the growers to get down to "braes tacks ' ' and study this question f er themselves. There is no doubt that tke business has reached a crisis and what its future is going to be is up to the growers themselves. Prices were abnormally high. That there was an undercurrent of grumbling all over the country is a well known fact. This was even being taken up by the daily press. The Beview tried to counteract some of it lu its issue of February 19, but if this thing becomes general, it will soon counteract all the work that has been done by the national publicity committee. Most of the stock that could be pro- cured during the scarcity was used for funeral work; this, in a manner, made the stock available au actual necessity. Only a small percentage of stock was being used tor entertain- ments or for any purpose that can lu any way be charged to luxuries. Yet the growers were satisfied, because with less work they were getting from cur- tailed crops returns as large as, and in many cases larger than, those which they received troni normal crops. To my mniu, there is just ouc tJiiiig that is ever goiug to bring the price of cut flowers oacK to normal — that is in- creased production. The Effect of the Slogan. It is evident that there is a " hand- writing on the waJl" which every florist shoulu heed. The national publicity committee has lor three years been working on the dissemination or the slo- gan, ' ' oay It with flowers. 1 ou can go into a theater and hear it sung; you can pick up almost any of the modern magazines anu see it used by the authors of short stories; you can take a trip by automobile or railroad and see it on the billboards nearly as otteu as you will see some popuiar tire adveiiioed. This is ail having its otiect. i'eople are following the advice of the slogan and are ' ' baying It with i lowers, ' ' out the publicity ot this slogan is attracting utteutiou in anotlier direction — to the great demand for flowers and the high prices that can be obtained for them. Outside Capital in Trade. The inability of the growers to supply the demand is attracting outside capital. Let ue look at this phase of the ques- tion. We recently read of a corpora- tion in New Jersey giving a contract for a range of houses to cost $800,000. From the statement of the company which received the contract, it would appear that this range of houses, when the builders have completed their com- mission, will be ready for a corps of trained florists to walk in and go to work. To stock such a range and pro- vide for a working capital will take at least $200,000 more; this will mean an investment of at least $1,000,000. It is true that what this corporation intends to g^row has not been divulged, neither has the directorate, yet there are two significant facts that should be taken notice of. The first is that its location is adjacent to a district that supplies a big part of the roses for the New York market; the second is that a board of directors that is willing to invest $1,000,000 in any en- terprise would have expert advice and investigate the subject from every angle. The fact that the contract has been let is the best evidence that this all has been done and that they are con- vinced that it will be a paying proposi- tion. Building Is a Science. We will assume that what the flower market all over this country needs is greater production. This means that more houses will be needed. Here is another point that will require careful study on the part of the growers. We have just been reading of large houses collapsing from the weight of snow. This may happen once in a lifetime, but that once is enough. Many a grower goes through life without a fire, but this docs not prevent him from carrying insurance. Then there are other points to be considered besides durability; there are ventilating, heat- ing, light and many other details that are of the utmost importance. The con- struction companies have trained en- gineers who make a study of all this. Today, greenhouse building is an exact science. It will pay any man, even if his building is not extensive, to in- vestigate this side of the question. The initial cost may be more, but when you take into consideration the lasting way in which the work wiU be done, it will pay, considering the better growing qualities of a house and the future re- pair account. Now is the time to build and the wise gn^ower will build well. Do some thinking; the time is ripe. Tate. MB. MILLEB'S NEW LILY. When A. Miller, of the American Bulb Co., was in Japan last summer he ran across a new type of early Easter lily and brought a few cases of it home to be tried out under greenhouse conditions. Some of the bulbs were turned over to Holm & Olson, at St. Paul, who report as follows: "With regard to lilies, will say that the case of that new lily you sent has turned out wonderfully. It seems to be a much quicker growing and forcing lily than the giganteum and we do not think we are going to be able to hold them back for Easter. They seem to grow considerably taller. They are now thirty to thirty-six inches tall and all of even height. They will average about five buds to the stalk." Holland, Mich. — Miss Helene Huizen- ga, who has been bookkeeper for Dumez Bros, the last four years, is now with her brothers at the Twelfth Street Floral Shop. OPCN LCTTCftg»y^ READED^ PBAOTICE PAYING PBOMPTLY. I notice that in The Review of Febru- ary 19 a brother florist complains of C. O. D. shipments. If all in the trade would try to make it a practice to pay their bills on or before the tenth of the month following the time of pur- chase, then there would be no need for such complaint. I wholesale a good deal of stock and have found that, as a rule, the florists are the slowest to pay; some of them barely pay before the next month's bill is due. W. E.

Let us simply remember, when we place our national, state and city publicity dollars, to keep them out of the hands of the St. Louis Star and all other papers of their class.

It rapidly is coming to pass that the small florist, in a country town, if he expects to prosper, must grow stock which will sell at wholesale through The Review, his only salvation with coal and labor where they are.

Weather a Hindrance. The weather has been abnormally cold in the eastern half of the country since Christmas, with a record-break- ing fall of snow. In addition there have been more cloudy days than usual and even on those that are clear many roofs have carried an accumulation of snow which, with the low temperature, has melted slowly. Then, with fuel none too abundant, the average grpwer has, in spite of high prices for cut flowers, been up against it in many ways. In the forcing of Easter crops the climatic eccentricities cut a big figure and care- ful calculating is needed to get the various plants in bloom on time. The skilled cultivator understands how to hit the holiday date to a nicety and these notos are rather intended for the great numbers of small growers who lack tho facilities of the large plant growers, but who want to get a nice assortment of pot plants for the great floral festival. LiUes. A year ago there was a paucity of lilies, practically none but cold storage bulbs being available, and plants were naturally of poor quality. The coming Easter will see a good supply of lilies from newly imported bulbs and the qual- ity seems to be unusually good. The formosums, which come in ahead of longiflorum giganteum, have been flow- ering for some time. They grow much taller than tho other forms of longi- florum and therefore do not appeal so well to growers and buyers. For church decorations, either cut or in pots, they have no superior. They are variable in height and in the number of flowers carried per stalk. We have some with qnite stout stalks only showing two or three buds. Others of similar strength show a dozen or more. Little forcing will be necessary to have these formo- sums in on time. With giganteums it is different. The bulbs arrive late and for so early an Easter as the coming one they will need about all the heat at our command. Generally speaking, if we can see buds so as to count them on Ash Wednesday we feel safe, provided the plants are given an average minimum of 60 degrees. Plants which are not yet showing buds are decidedly late and, if wanted for April 4, must have a night temperature of 70 degrees or the warmest house at command, and be frequently sprayed. A little nitrate of soda once a week will help advance the laggards. Use a pound in thirty gallons of water. If a. small house is at command, where lilies can be placed which are late and which can be closed early in the after- noon, by all means use it. Keep the atmosphere constantly moist and, if the plants are a little too dwarf, shade the gla.ss a little to help lengthen their stems. With your early lilies use care not to move the plants from a high to a low temperature, or the buds may re- fuse to open at all. Wait until the flowers start to open and then lower the temperature gradually. Boses. There will be a large supply of roses this season, but a good many small growers will be a little late. The ram- bler varieties, like Tausendschoen, still the most popular of all, will be all right if you can now see the small buds on the sprays. The polyantha, or baby rambler class, like Mrs. Cutbush, Or- leans, etc., if in the same stage, will jilso be all right. Do not force them too hard; 55 to 60 degrees is ample at I'.ight, and be careful how you venti- late. A cold draft will start mildew and it will speedily disfigure the foliage and render the plants unsalable. Also, when syringing, do it in the morning of clear days, so that the foliage is dry 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. Oood penmanship, spellins and srammar, though desirable, are not necessary. Writeasyou would talk when doing your best. WE SHALL BE GLAD TO HEAR FROM YOU before sundown. Hybrid perpetual and hybrid tea roses come along fast. If the buds are merely showing March 10 they are all right in a temperature of 50 degrees at night. These latter are harder to time than the ramblers. They are not wanted with wide-open flowers, but in the bud stage, just showing color. Some moving around of the plants will be necessary if we get a few warm days just before Easter, but carefully avoid cold drafts on every consideration. Give the plants plenty of water and liquid manure twice a week until the buds show color. French Hydrangeas. Few of the old otaksa hydrangeas are now used for Easter. The French types, with their fine range of colors, force much more easily and bloom with a freedom which is surprising. On 5- inch pots I have counted twelve to fif- teen heads and on 8-inch pots one or two of my plants carry thirty to forty- two heads each. So abundantly, in fact, do these French hydrangeas flower that we have trouble in securing blind shoots for propagating purposes. Plants started early in January and given 50 to 55 degrees at night now have heads two to four inches in diameter and will be on time without having recourse to forcing. This is advantageous, as plants grown thus cool are much more stocky. Where flower heads are as yet merely peeping, they are late and should have 60 degrees at night. Hydrangeas are thirsty subjects and need an'*abundant water supply and liquid manure twice a week until the heads are well devel- oped. Avoid syringing them, as they are more susceptible to mildew than the old otaksa. Astilbes. Astilbes, or, more popularly, spireeas, have to be home-produced now and will figure less at Easter and Memorial day than in former years. Give them as much heat as you like and you cannot overwater them. They are among the few plants below which you can place saucers and keep them filled with water without the foliage showing ill effects from it. Be careful to fumigate lightly v/hcre the spirseas are, as their foliage is easily scorched. In the case of pink varieties, like Queen Alexandra and Peach Blossom, the plants must be kept shaded as soon as the flower heads start to open, or they will speedily lose much of their beautiful color. Deciduous Shrubs. Some deciduous shrubs are available for the coming Easter. Unsold plants, cut back, planted outside and carried over until the second season, make splendid stock for forcing. There is a wide variation in the time needed to flower deciduous shrubs. Lilacs will come in within six to eight weeks in a temperature of 50 degrees; so will Deutzia Lemoinei and gracilis. Azalea Kaempferi, a grand Easter plant, needs not more than six weeks. Prunus tril- oba, with its beautiful peach-pink double flowers, and ornamental malus require but a month. Laburnums must have a longer period. I prefer to grow them fairly cool and allow eight to ten weeks. Wistarias flower within six weeks. These periods can be reduced by giving the plants strong heat and keeping the atmosphere reeking with moisture, but plants grown under such conditions arc not fit to send out to anyone, as they lack substance and will wilt badly. It is not well to have more than a small number of flowers open on any of these shrubs at Easter. If fully opened they will drop to pieces before they can reach your customers; so yon should plan to deliver them in the bud stage. Btilbous Plants. Bulbous plants form a not inconsider- able part of the Easter stock in trade of many country florists, as numerous inquiries sent to The Review indicate. Hyacinths, grown singly or in pans, tulips and daffodils in pans constitute the bulk of this bulbous material. It takes but a short time to force these plants into flower. Really they should not be forced at all, but brought along in a cold greenhouse, kept well up to •.■T 26 The Florists^ Review Mabch 4, 1920 the light to make them as stocky as possible. In ordinary years I like to bring these along in coldframes which are well protected on cold nights, but, with a yard or more of snow covering all such frames now, we must have re- course to other methods of handling them. As a rule, three weeks is ample time to allow for any of these bulbs after housing. Much will, of course, depend on the weather. Tulips may need covering with papers as the flow- ers start to open, and remember that if we get a warm spell of weather a good, ■cool cellar should be used to accommo- date these useful bulbs. Murillo tulips and Victotia narcissi are the two best pan subjects for Easter, but several •other sorts are available this season. Miscellaneous Stock. Genistas should never be forced, or they will possess little substance. Grow them cool and airy. You can retard them in any temperature above actual freezing. Azalea indica will be scarce and expensive. It can be subjected, if necessary, to hard forcing until flowers start to open; then grow cool. The same applies to rhododendrons, which are fewer than usual, and of course acacias and ericas can hardly be grown too cool. Coming to soft- wooded subjects, it will be necessary to keep cinerarias cool and well shaded, also cyclamens. Primula obconica and malacoides will be available and also need the coolest greenhouse treatment and shade in addition, to keep them in presentable condition. Schizanthus, a lovely Easter plant not much seen, is another cool-loving plant. Water and feed it well. With marguerites remem- ber that you can scarcely overwater them at any stage of their growth when pot-grown. ;^-J[jg^l^lX8A]i^tX8^tXl^t^tX8^1^jl^t^^^ GROWERS' LOCALS RfeTflJTTtlffrfBrWffrtBy^lff^lff^By^lff^l?^^^ OBO WEBS' ASSOCIATION.

The Need of a Growers' Society. You need a national growers' associa- tion because: It will constantly work for your in- terests as a flower grower. It will elevate the flower business in general and make it both more pleasant and more profitable. It will safeguard your heavy invest- ments in an extremely hazardous busi- ness. It will afford protection from unjust and harmful legislation. It will assist you in the production fof high-grade flowers and plants. It will remove the drudgery of the grower. Its activities will procure prices for a grower's products commensurate with the chances he takes. It will help you to solve many per- plexing problems. It wiU extend the demand for your products. It will minimize the annual waste of flowers. Its Need for You. The national growers ' association needs you because: With you, the organization is stronger than without you.

To Form Local of National Body. As announced in The Eeview of Feb- ruary 5, a movement was started dur- ing the convention of the American Carnation Society in Chicago to organ- ize the florists in southern Illinois and it was planned to hold a meeting for this purpose in Centralia February 25. At that meeting, which was attended by a fair representation of the trade, it was decided to defer organizing until after the national growers' association had been fully organized and then to meet in Springfield sometime in April for the purpose of forming the southern Illinois local of the national growers' association. A call announcing the date will be issued by J. F. Ammann on his return from the east and a letter will be mailed to all those in the southern dis- trict. Fixing Prices. A lengthy discussion of spring busi- ness brought out the fact that none of those present knew just what it cost to produce potted plants, but that all were selling them too cheap. It was decided to make the minimum price of 4-inch geraniums $2.50 for such varieties as S. A. Nutt and the whites and $3 for such as Poitevine, with $1 per dozen as the minimum price for 2i/^-inch pots of soft-wooded plants like salvias, ver- benas and coleus. Many were in doubt as to whether these prices would show a profit and a discussion ensued as to the cost of production. One firm reported a good profit last year in its cut flower department, but a heavy loss in the pot- ted plant department. This discussion will stimulate many to try to find out the actual cost of pro- duction and lany who have such figures will do the trade a valuable service by sharing such information with the other members of it. The idea seems to be prevalent that many are losing money on the potted plant department and are bleeding the cut flower department to keep up the other. Watch for the date of the meeting at Springfield in April and arrange to be there. J. W. Boss, Sec'y. MIOHiaAN PLACES EMBABOO. Fears Com Borer from New England. Following in the footsteps of Illinois, Michigan has barred such plants as may harbor the corn borer if they come from the New England states, New York or Pennsylvania. In his proclamation of the embargo L. B. Taft, state inspector of orchards and nurseries. East Lansing, excludes cut flowers or entire plants of chrysanthemums, asters, cosmos, zinnias, hollyhocks, gladioli, cannas, peonies, dahlias and such other herba- ceous plants as have a hollow stem or a large pith likely to shelter the corn borer. The edict, however, specifically excludes the bulbs of any of these, if no stem is attached, a wise revision of the Illinois embargo. The proclamation reads as follows: Wbeicas, the European corn borer, Pyrausta nubllalia, an insect not known to be present in the state of Michigan, has been found in the states of New York, Massachusetts, New Hamp- shire and Pennsylvania, and is likely to be in the neighboring states, since it has been shown that this insect is a serious pest and causes great damage to corn, broom com and other farm and garden crops, and l>ecause this insect spreads rapidly and will be extremely difficult to eradicate if it is brought into the state of Michigan upon any of the plants upon which It feeds. Now, therefore, the undersigned, state In- spector of nurseries and orchards of the state of Michigan, by virtue of the authority vested in me by the provisions of an act entitled: "An act to prevent the importation from other states and the spread within this state of dangerous insects and dangerously contagious diseases affecting trees, shrubs, vines, plants and fruits," (Compiled Laws, Section 7422), hereby prohibits and declares unlawful, from and after the first day of March, 1920, until otherwise by blm proclaimed, the importation into the state of Michigan and the shipment within said state, of any com or broom corn, including all parts of the ear or stalk, the shelled grain only excepted; and also celery, beans in the pod, beets with tops, spinach, rhubarb; rye, oat, wheftt or other straw,* sedges or rushes, whether used as such or as packing materials; cut flowers or entire plants of chrys- anthemum, aster, cosmos, zinnia or hollyhock; also cut flowers, or entire plants of gladiolus, canna, peony and dahlia, except the bulbs there- of without stems, and such other herbaceous plants and shrubs as have hollow stems, or a large pith likely to shelter the European com borer, and which have been grown or propagated in the states of Maine, New Hamp- shire, Vermont, Massachusetts, Rhode Island, Connecticut, New York and Pennsylvania. Notice is hereby given to all persons, flrmi and corporations, and especially to all common carriers, that anyone who brings into the state of Michigan, any of the plants enumerated above, which have been grown or propagated in the states named, will be guilty of a misdemeanor, and if any plants are brought into the state of Michigan, contrary to the provisions of this quarantine, such plants -will be destroyed. The penalty for such misde- meanor is a fine not exceeding $100 or im- prisonment for not more than ninety days, or both such fine and imprisonment at the dis- cretion of the court. L. R. Taft.

Plants for Allies. The American Carnation Society has continued the committee which was to look after the welfare of Belgium, France and possibly England insofar as new varieties of carnations are con- cerned. It is herewith requested that our leading growers send the introduc- tions of the last two years insofar as it is possible to either W. E. Wallace, Eaton Bing, Dunstable, England, or C, Engelmann, Saffron Walden, Essex county, England. These gentlemen will see that any plants which arrive in their care will be properly distributed and have made arrangements for same. Also please see that the information with re- gard to the sending is mailed to the committee. Since the American Car- nation Society has undertaken this kindness, every prominent grower of carnations ought to do his part. Irwin Bertermann, Theodore Dorner, J. H. Dunlop. CABE OF CABNATIONS. I am sending you samples of soil and carnations. The bed is full of buds and there are several blooms, but they do not come out full. I have given them sheep manure twice, but only lightly, and have kept the temperature at about 50 to 52 degrees at night. Please tell me what the trouble is. E. E. — 111. The specimens submitted were well covered with red spider and fairy ring. It is quite evident that your watering and syringing have not been done prop- erly. Had you syringed properly, your plants would be free from spider "and, had you kept the foliage dry most of the time, you would not have the fairy ring. Go over your plants first of ail and pick off all the spotted leaves. Then put a cake of Ivory soap in your salt sprayer and wash the plants' off thoroughly. Select a bright dav for this and repeat it two days after. 'Then spray the plants with Bordeaux mixture. Repeat this in about ten days unless you see a decided improvement. Keep Mie spotted leaves picked off right along. The soil submitted was all gone ex- cept a few pieces of decayed wood. Without seeing a whole plant and a liberal sample of the soil, I cannot ad- vise you in regard to it. Your plants probably do not need feeding, at least not until they start into active growth. Your temperature is all right. A. F. J. B. SOW BUGS ON CARNATIONS. Our carnations are troubled with sow bugs. We have used brown sugar mixed with Paris green with little success. We have also placed boards with raw po- tatoes beneath the benches and have scalded the bugs under them evcrv few days. But the amount of space devoted to carnations is so big and the bugs are so many that we must find some more effective and less tedious way. I have found that sow bugs and snails prefer cabbage heads above everything else, but I know of no poison that will penetrate the cabbage leaves so as to make them fit to kill the pest. Please tell me some effective way to get rid of the pest. A. W. S.— Mont. Our favorite remedy for sow bugs up to the last few years was granulated sugar and Paris green. This we found quite effective in destroying them. Re- cently we have used Hammond's Slug Shot with splendid success. It has the advantage of being ready for use with- out mixing. While it is not always pos- sible to keep the place free from de- cayed wood, on account of aging bench lumber, all other rubbish, etc., should be kept cleaned up, especially under the benches. That will go a long way to- ward controlling this pest and you will find it impossible to control them unless you do keep the place clean. A. F. J. B. TO FILL THAT EMPTY SPACE. Growers who usually find themselves with a large amount of empty space In the houses after the chrysanthemums are cleared out in the fall and wish to fill in quickly with a useful and profit- able crop will find the following desir- able subjects: Hardy pinks, often called grass pinks; sweet williams; Canterbury bells; delphiniums; An- chusa italica, Dropmore variety. These, with the exception of delphiniums and anchusas, should be sown about the end of February or during March. When they are large enough to be handled, transplant the seedlings into flats and keep them in a cool house till weather and conditions are satisfactory. They may then be planted in the field and treated just as one would treat carnations, being kept clean and culti- vated during the summer months. Be- fore the ground is frozen in the fall, they should be lifted and planted in the beds or benches, or if desired, could be carefully, but not too thickly, heeled in a frame till required. Campanulas and sweet williams may be placed in pots just large enough to contain the roots. Hardy pinks are excellent for use in designs, making a dainty appear- ance and holding up well. Anchusas have made roots large enough in one season, but the 2-year-old plants are better, while delphiniums should be 3-year-old clumps with good crowns. A great advantage in hardy pinks is that they do not occupy the space for a long period and do not cause much work, as no staking or tying is needed. Also a large number of blooms are cut at one time. Certainly the same value in flowers would not be cut from carnations for the same period they oc- cupy the space. E. E. R. ORCHID HYBRIDIZINQ. When I cross Cattleya Trianae, shall I get them true to name? When C. Dowiana is crossed with C. labiata, would the seedlings be called C. Fabiat Which of the parents is the seeding parent and which one was the pollen taken from? Please give per cent of seedlings which would be true C. Fabia and what the balance would be. J. D.— Pa. Cattleya Trianae x C. Trianae should come true provided care is taken t) cover the flowers to be used with gauze before they open, in order to prevent insect pollination. So far not much has been done in crossing species with themselves and results have been less satisfactory than where different spe- cies were used. C. Dowiana aurea x C. labiata gave us C. Fabia; the first- named is the seed parent and all crosses carefully made should give 100 per cent Fabia seedlings, but there would prob- ably be considerable variation in the seedlings, some being much superior to others. C. Fabia has been crossed with a number of other hybrids. C. Fabiata, which I have, is the result of a cross with C. Portia, the latter being a cross between C. labiata and C. Bow- ringiana. If the Federal Horticultural Board decides to continue its embargo on or- chid importations, seedling raising may boom a little here, but it is a slow, uncertain and expensive business and hybrids never prove so popular com- mercially as species. I should advise going slowly in seedling raising; I have had twenty years' experience with it and would not put too much reliance on the extravagant claims made by one or two seedling raisers who hope to see the bars against orchids remain up.

Objecting to further control of coal distribution by the government. Repre- sentative Tilson, of Connecticut, intro- duced a resolution March 1 amending the Lever food control act. Under its terms powor over the distribution of coal is expressly taken from the govern- itieut. Mr. Tilson 's action was prompt- ed by the executive orders issued Feb- ruary 28 by President Wilson continu- ing the authority vested in Director- (Jeneral Hines over the distribution of coal. "The system of regulating distri- bution now in vogue readily lends it- self to graft and crooked dealing," Mr. Tilson said. "I do not mean that the fuel administrator or any of the prin- cipal men under him are in any way connected with graft or crookedness, but after investigation around New York I am convinced that in coal reaching that city shameless graft has cut a disgraceful figure." HARD COAL MINERS ASK RAISE. Greenhouse owners in the east may be affected by the demands for a sixty per cent increase in wages for contract miners, .$2 a day raise for day men, afld a 6-hour day and -l-day week for men jiaid by the day or month, which will be presented to the anthracite coal opera- tors in New York March 9 by the union representatives of the hard coal dig- gers. These demands were formulated at a convention of the anthracite miners in Wilkes-Barrc last August and ratified by the national convention of the United Mine Workers of America in Cleveland in September. The conference of operators and mine workers will endeavor to negotiate a new agreement to take the place of the contract now in force. The present general wage agreement covering the anthracite industry was entered into in May, 1916, for four years ending March 31, this year. Be- cause of war conditions, wages have been since readjusted by supplemental agreements between the miners and op- erators. About 170,000 mine workers will be affected by the new contract to be ne- gotiated. Whether the mine workers will re- main at work if an agreement is not reached by March 31 will depend large- ly, it is said, on how strenuously the operators oppose the demands. No opinion has thus far been given by either side as to the outcome of the negotiations. The opinion was ex- pressed, however, that the negotiations probably would not be taken up se- riously until the bituminous w.age scale has been agreed upon. WILL PROBE MAIL SERVICE. Mail delays which have caused florists increasing trouble of late are to come to the attention of Congress in a way -T -t-^^y, ^•■Tr- ■ ■A'i' Mauch 4, 1920 The Florists^ Review 29 -that may produce improvements in the post office service. The Merchants' As- sociation of New York has won its long fight for a thorough investigation of the ■causes of the breakdown of the mail service, provided Congress adopts the recommendations of the committee, v/hich it is almost certain to do. The Senate committee on post offices and post roads has voted to grant the request made by the association for an investigation of the post office system in order to determine the defects which liave brought about the breakdown of the service, and the remedies that should be applied. In accordance with this request, the committee has voted to insert in the post office appropriation bill a pro- vision for an investigation by a joint commission of Congress, composed of members of the committees on post offices and post roads of the Senate and the House, together with a postal expert to be designated by the post- master-general. These appointees shall select seven associate members from representative business men or representatives of busi- ness organizations who are large users of the mails. They may engage the services of engineers and such other expert and clerical assistants as they may deem necessary. This committee is authorized by the bill, as approved by the Senate commit- tee, to study, investigate and report upon the question of improving existing methods of transporting the mails into, through and from the largest cities of the United States, and to investigate and report upon the value of the postal service of different proposed methods of underground and aerial mail trans- portation. The commission is directed to report upon the cost and efficiency of existing methods of relative transportation in the proposed methods for their improve- ment, including the handling of mails at the railway terminals and on rail- way ix)st office cars. SOCIETY OF AMEBIOAN FLORISTS. Committee Meetings Called. The national flower show committee will meet at the administration offices, 1170 Broadway, New York, Tuesday, March 16, at 3 p. m. At this meeting the most important business will be the selection of a place for holding the next national flower show. The committee will be pleased to receive suggestions from anyone interested in the project. The committee on tariff and legisla- tion will meet at the same address "Wednesday, March 17, at 2 p. m., when some important business will be taken up for action. The publicity committee w^ill meet at the offices Thursday, March 18, practi- cally all of its members being in at- tendance at the international flower show on that day. At this meeting va- rious details in connection with the national publicity campaign will be dis- cussed, looking to a vigorous continu- ance of the campaign. Edwin J. Fan- court, Philadelphia, who has given splendid service on this comdittee since its inception, believing that someone who can give more time to the duties of the position than he can could better serve the committee and the campaign, has tendered his resignation, and Presi- C. C. PoIIworth. Newly Appointed Membar of National Publicity Oommittfce. (lent Miller has appointed C. C. Poll- worth, Milwaukee, Wis., to fill the va- cancy thus occurring. John Young, Sec'y. CINERA^kxA HAS 8TEM-B0T. Can you enlighten me as to the trouble with the cineraria plant I am sending you? The plants seem to be healthy, but in the course of a day they will wilt. They are in a tempera- ture of 60 degrees during the day and 50 degrees during the night. I have sprayed them overhead to water them and have always done this without any trouble. This trouble is affecting my best plants. P. F. S.— Mich. The roots of the cineraria plant were badly rotted and the lower part of the stem of the plant was in the same con- dition. This is the cause of the trouble with your plants. They are affected by wilt, or stem-rot. Cinerarias are among the most com- mon of greenhouse flowering plants and, if given a cool temperature and care- ful watering, are of easy culture, but, if treated to a high temperature and excessive moisture, they quickly go wrong. The temperatures best suited for them are 45 degrees at night and 54 to 56 degrees on cloudy days, when artificial heat has to be used and little, if any, ventilation can be given. On bright days, when it is not necessary to use the artificial heat and the ven- tilators can be opened, it is all right for the temperature to run up to 60 degrees, or a little above. lender such conditions, the plants will not dry out quickly and will need watering only about two or three times a week during the dark weather. If the regular fu- migation is given to keep the insects in check, there will not be any need of overhead sprinklings. By treating the plants in this manner, the soil in the pots is kept fresh and sweet and does not become stagnant. As you state in the letter, the trouble affects your best plants first. This is generally the rule when they have been subjected to high-pressure culture. When a plant has become affected like the sample sent, it is impossible to save it. The first sign of the trouble is when the plant begins to wilt with the sun, which shows that there is something wrong with the roots, and when the disease gets to the main stem the plant is beyond recovery. It would be advisable to lower the temperature gradually on the plants and reduce the moisture by cutting out the overhead spraying and watering the plants at the roots only as they are in need of it. M. P. CINERARIAS SEEDING. What is necessary to get cineraria seed to develop? Must it be pollenized? J. D.— Pa. Cinerarias seed with great freedom even if not pollenized. C. grandiflora is helped by pollination, but C. stellata does not need it. C. W. Carlton Station. N. Y.— M. .T. Scar- borough has recently purchased the two g-reenhousea formerly owned by A. R. Halcomb. He intends to g^ow tomato plants besides flowers. i:!'w^".uv("»i,.^«iiyi("i;,»jjviii ii.. — 1 ^ NPflMip.MJPJUPJIUl.H i|^pp}l»a!pVf.lHi,*llJfl","»'.»^<»W'J iMV!«"i''»wi|if!iJ •vfWfJmttf Mabch 4, 1920 The Florists' Review CARNATIONS on long Roses and Feincy Cama- splendid quality of the stock orders and compare quality and prices yourself uuiuiiiiiiiniiiiiiiiiiinniiiDinniiiniHa \ s I S s S S PRICE LIST CARNATIONS Perioo AU Colors $6.00 @ $ 8.00 Laddie 15.00 SWEET PEAS Per 100 Spencer $1.50 @ $3.00 VIOLETS Per 100 Doable $0.50 @ $1.00 Single 75 @ 1.00 BULBOUS STOCK Per 100 Tulips $6.00 @ $10.00 TaUps, Darwin 12.00 Jonquils 6.00 @ 8.00 Rainl>ow Frecsia 3.00 0 5.00 Freesia Purity 3.00® 4.00 MISCELLANEOUS Per lOO VaUey $8.C0 Mignonette $4.00 @ 8.00 Daisies, white or yellow 2.00 @ 3.00 Calendulas... 3.00 @ 4.00 Callas doz., 3.00 Easter LUies doz., 3.00 @ 4.00 Pansies doz. bunches, 1.50 Pussy Willow 4.00 @ 6.00 GREENS Plumosus per bunch,$ 0.50 @ % 0.75 Sprengeri perbuoch, .50 Adiantum, fancy long.. per 100, 1.00 @ 1.50 Smilaz per doz., 3.00 Ferns per 100, J0.45; per 1000, 4.00 Galax per 100, .25; per 1000, 2.00 Mexican Ivy ... . per 100, .76; per 1000, 6.00 Leucothoe per 100, 1.00; per 1000, 7.50 Boxwood Per 100 lbs., 25.00 Prices Subject to Market Changes.

Nor does quality leave anything for the buyers to complain of. Perhaps the greatest increase in supply has been of Bweet peas. These are everywhere and the quality varies wide- ly. While the peas are selling well, the demand is not great enough to take up 80 tremendous a supply. The abundance of peas has given violets another set- baeL Early tulips are in greater abundance than heretofore, although some of the first growers in the market have finished shipping. Darwin tulips are being received in considerable quan- tity and are selling well. There is an abundance of freesia, but it is not in demand. Callas are so plentiful that the price has fallen to half what it was a month ago and there are a few Easter lilies of fine quality, with moderate sup- plies of rubrums. Cattleyas have be- come plentiful and cheap; prices are back where they were before the war. It looks as though the orchid growers, as well as the valley forcers, would have to employ strong publicity methods to get the trade into the habit of push- ing these specialties again. All green goods also are in good sup- ply. Big February Business. The extra day in F.ebruary this year did the florists no good, because it tell on Sunday, when florists no longer labor. So February 's record is for twenty-eight days, the same as in 1919. But other- wise there is no similarity. Numerous wholesale houses say their sales this February were douDle those of the month in 1919. Practically everyone had the largest increase ever recorded for a single month.

For a great many years the month in which Easter fell always was the big month of the year in the Chicago market. Gradually Christmas came to the front, with the result that for the last few years De- cember regularly has been the biggest of the, twelve. But February, 1920, now stands as the record month for Chicago. Of course, a large part of the splendid wholesale total was contributed by or- ders from out-of-town, but most of the city retail stores also had a record busi- ness. There is a general belief that Easter will be larger than ever before. While trade seems inactive now, by compari- son with the recent rush, it really is much better than is usual in the first part of Lent and there is confidence of a big volume all this spring. A Smootli Start. With the opening of business March 1 fourteen wholesale houses began col- lecting for the publicity campaign, on the plan several times described in this column. The idea was that one per cent should be added to the bills only of those who have joined the Allied Florists' Association, but most of the wholesal- ers made the addition to the bills of all the city cu8tom,ers, without reference to the list of those who have signed the agreement. So far as heard from, there was absolutely no objection and it seems probable that in the course of a few days all the kinks will be straightened out and practically everybody will be participating in the work and cost, as all are participating in the benefits al- ready apparent.

Mr. Keenan has been in the army service for a considerable part of the time since he left the florists' business, not having returned from France until August, 1919. He now is a salesman for the United States Eubber Co., but plans to get back into business. About two years ago Poehlmann Bros. Co. foreclosed a chattel mortgage on the Keenan store and bid in the property when it was seen that no satisfactory offer was forthcoming, turning the store over to the sisters of the former owner, who are conducting it successfully as F. & R. Keenan. The bankruptcy sched- ule shows the old debts to be $5,403.09, divided among fifty-two creditors, nearly all except $737 for rent being due to the trade. The assets scheduled are $95 in wearing apparel and $5 cash.

The anticipated slump in prices has arrived. For a number of weeks, sup- ply and demand have about balanced each other. Now, with a number of clear days and the increasing power of the sun, cut flowers are much more abundant and values are practically cut in half. The continued severe weather, with zero readings in Boston February 27 and 28, and readings 10 to 15 degrees below zero a few miles outside, snow- blockaded roads and transportation fa- cilities far from normal, are hardly con- ducive to good business. Some near-by towns are so isolated by huge drifts that they are facing semi-starvation. Boses have taken a sharp tumble. Short-stemmed stock is down to $3 to $4 per hundred and only select flowers bring over $12 per hundred. Supplies are much more abundant. Carnations have fallen in proportion to roses and, while a few fancies may sell at $8 per hundred, a greater number sell at half that price. There was a large surplus on both February 28 and March 1. Violets are also at lower prices. Large arrivals of sweet peas have forced prices down and the same applies to all classes of Dutch bulbous flowers. Callas are much lower and lilies are decidedly druggy. Marguerites sell slowly, as do calendulas, forget-me-nots and snapdragons. Among miscellaneous flowers seen are Iris tingitana and filici- foUa, polyanthus, Roman anemones, acacias, clivias, amaryllis and ranun- culus.

Mr. Welch will visit the flower show in New York and officiate as a judge. In Galvin's Park street store large bowls of Iris tingitana, Freesia Purity and Acacia pubescens made a lovely combination. A fine display of cymbid- iums, dendrobiums, cattleyas and other seasonable orchids were noted here. Owing to the weather conditions, the show of orchid plants scheduled to be held at Horticultural hall February 28 was called oft. The only orchid display was one of cut flowers from Joseph Manda, who showed some choice and handsome cymbidiums, cypripediums and other orchids. The first of the course of winter lectures was given by Prof. W. J. V. Osterhart, on "The Liv- ing Plant," and attracted a good at- tendance. Germination and root de- velopment were principally dealt with. Henry Penn has been running large ads in all the Boston papers for the last week, telling people that flowers are lower in price. Another com borer hearing was held February 28, at the offices of the com- missioner of agriculture, at the state house, Boston.

There are plenty of flowers at lower prices. It was the sweet pea that did it more than anything else. Sweet peas respond first to sunshine; a day or two will ac- complish wonders at this season. Sweet peas are coming in by the thousand now. Most of them are sold at pretty fair prices; a few are left over, an unheard-of thing for many weeks. Violets, too, are abundant. There is not 80 much demand for them as there is for sweet peas. Many violets are sold cheaply or left over. Daffodils have tumbled down in price to one-half the figures of two weeks ago. These three flowers led the decil^e. The rest of the market is in sympathy with them, without any special increase in the crops. As this supply increased, the demand fell off.

This is true all over the country, caus- ing a marked falling off in shipping, as well as local, orders for funerals. The effect of the change is seen in the reappearance of buyers who have been absent from the market for three months. Flowers are getting within their reach once more and they are quick to take advantage of the oppor- tunity. February, the shortest month of the year, has proved to be a month of ex- traordinary prosperity for florists. The curtailment in production and the in- creased demand have resulted in un- heard-of prices, which have made the total sales of cut flowers larger than in any previous February and probably larger than in any previous month ex- cept December.

Of course everybody would want to go and everybody couldn't. It would make too many. There must be a few of the colonel's old friends in the pro- fesh and a few of the youngsters, like Gene Bemheimer and Allie Patterson, to liven things up. The party, as it finally lined up on the eventful evening, was thoroughly representative of our best men. There was a baker's dozen, of coarse. Here they are: William J. Baker, Henry Bauer, Eugene Bem- heimer, A. B. Cartledge, Qeorge Craig, W. W. Crawford, Carl A. Corts, Richard Heron, Robert Kift, Charles W. Kah- lert, Alexander Craig Patterson, Ed- ward Biley, Benjamin Starkey. It was a big surprise — ^yon can't often fool the colonel — and a great success. There was a great big bee on the top of the menu. There was one dish a la gprouch (oh, naughty boy!), another a la Marie (woman rules the world, you know), and napkins a la Biley. It was a real kiddie time, as Mr. Crawford aptly expressed it, and much enjoyed by all. The Sweet Peas In the New House. The Joseph Heacock Co,, on complet- ing the third big house, 72x600 feet, at Boelofs late last fall, put in sev- eral so-called catch crops to keep the house from idleness until the roses were planted in it late in the spring.

A scarcity of bulbous flowers later in the season is predicted, for the reason that many bulb growers have been unable to bring in flats which are ice-bound. Eoses are only in fair supply, but, with the wealth of spring flowers at hand, they are plentiful enough to meet the demand for them. American Beauty would be quite scarce if the demand for it were good. The arrivals of hybrid teas show general good qual- ity, but there is still a shortage in the lower grades, which are in strong de- mand for funeral work. Carnations are plentiful and there is little prospect of a shortage from now on, but rather the reverse, as growers report that the plants in the benches show a disposition to make up for lost time.

A lecture on ' ' Rose Gardens ' ' will be delivered March 17 at 8:15 p. m. at the American Museum of Natural History at a meeting of the Horticultural So- ciety of New York to be held on that date. The lecture is by Edmund M. Mills, president of the Syracuse Rose Society, an enthusiastic amateur grower of roses for over forty years. Incorporation papers " were recently taken out by the William H. Lutton Co. in New Jersey, stating a capitalization of $50,000, for the manufacture of ^eenhouse equipments. J. W.

The advent of Lent, the abating of the flu epidemic and the holi- days of February 22 and 23 all helped to create an oversupply and cause stock to take a tumble in all lines. Roses show the least decline, owing to a scarcity of growers in this district. The better grades are about $35 per hundred, while short roses are noted at $12 per hundred. Carnations have dropped to about $8 per hundred for good stock, some still bringing $10 per hundred. Inferior stock is much cheap- er. Lily of the valley has fallen off one-half, now being quoted at $6 per hundred. Sweet peas are about the same, but another week will see the price still lower. Purity freesia, as well as tulips and single daffodils, are down to $6 per hundred and move well at this figure.

"Maude Adams" is the most prolific Dahh\ of its color, being more than twice as free-flowering as either 'VTymphea" or "Sylvia." It has good stems and Is an early Dahlia to v^lossom, continuing thruout the entire season. It has the necessary features that make It stand shipping well, and makes up good in all kinds of work. It has already been tested out in all parts of tho country, Raymond Champe of Michigan finding It his best commert'al variety. I can furnish strong divisions at $3.50 per dozen, $20.01 per 100; and clumps at SS.OO per doz., $35.00 per 100. Hortnlanus Flet (Giant Decorative Dahlia). Beautiful salmon-pink with a slight blending of yellow. Good divisions $15.00 per 100, $2.00 per dozen. Madonna (New Peony-flowered Dahlia). A very beautiful white, very slightly tinted with a most delicate shade of :avender-plnk. The touch of color adds greatly, rather than detracts from its value, especially when made-up in floral work. The foriA of the flower Is perfectly original, each petal curling and twisting in a very pleasing manner. An excellent cut-fiower variety. Strong divisions $1.50 per dozen, liO.OO per 100; clumps $3.00 per dozen, $25.00 p«>r 100. Frank A. Walker (New Decorative Dahlia). A charming shade of lavender-pink, with long stiff stems. Produces its flowers In abun- dance; an exceptionally early bloomer. Good divisions $8.60 per dozen, $25.00 per 100; clumps $5.00 per dozen. Mina Bungle (Decorative Dahlia). The finest scarlet DahUa to my knowledge. Flowers of large size, produced in quantity, on long, wlrv stems, well above the foliage. Good divisions $1.50 per dozen, $10.00 per 100; clumps $2.00 per dozen. $15.00 per 100. Field View of Dahlia Mande Adams. Mrs. Wamaar (Peony-Cactus Dahlia). Gigantic flowers of creamy white, suffused a delicate shade of pink. The early flowers are full to the center, and giants of hybrid Cactus type; but as the season advances, they show the beautiful golden yellow center which lends an Individual charm to the flower, a characteristic of the Peony-flowered type. An early continuous bloomer, stems anywhere from eighteen to thirty- six inches long. Divisions $5.00 per dozen. $35.00 per 100. ... ^'. y°" *'"® Interested in cut-flower varieties, I will be pleaved to recommend you the best varieties In the colors you want, and will give your communication the benefit of my twenty-five yeart> as a Dahlia Specialist.

The supply of stock is now normal again for this time of the year. Bulb- ous flowers and an increase in the cut of carnations and sweet peas have greatly relieved the scarcity which has prevailed in this city for several weeks. Prices, consequently, have dropped con- siderably. Cattleyas are bringing $50 per hundred and peas move slowly at $4 per hundred. Carnations have dropped to $12 per hundred. The rose supply has not been quite so satisfac- tory during the last week. The supply of spring flowers continues to show an increase, especially tulips. The plant trade is still good, and all greens clean up rapidly. Some stock was lost by freezing during the extremely cold spell last week, but out-of-town business has been unusually good and the shipments have been going through with little trouble. G. V. S. Osrster Boast a Success. The oyster roast at the range of the "Washington Floral Co., at Alexandria, Va., Saturday evening, February 28, was a great success. The florists, led by a delegation from Gude Bros. Co., in a large limousine, journeyed to Alexandria in a string of automobiles. The greenhouse was decorated with palms, ferns and American flags. At one end a platform had been set up for speakers, but this was largely utilized by a colored orchestra. Oysters and clams on the half-shell, cooked in sev- eral styles with all the fixings, were served. Among the speakers were David G. Grillbortzer, president of the Washing- ton Floral Co.; J. Harper Hetherington, manager of the Fourteenth street store of that company; William F. and Adolph Gude, of Gude Bros. Co.; Cap- tain James, of the British army, and Z. D. Blackistone. Mr. Hetherington was in charge of the transportation arrangements and the commissary, while Mr. Grillbortzer looked after things in Alexandria. The latter delivered a few words of wel- come and then urged that they all do their utmost to make the next conven* tion and show of the American Carna- tion Society a success. The guests pledged their cooperation and gave a rising vote of thanks to Mr. Grillbortzer and to Mr. Hetherington for the excel- lence of the entertainment. FORCED FSEESIAS AKD VAT.T.F.Y. Have forced freesias and forced lilies of the valley any value if planted out in the open ground after forcing! How should I treat themf L. S. K. — Mass. Freesias when cut close to the ground with long stems are not worth carrying over. If they are cut with short stems and if the foliage is not removed, they can be carried over to good advantage provided the pots, pans or flats are given a light position and watered un- til the foliage shows signs of matur- ing, when they can be rested. Bulbs carried over this way are equal or su- perior to any you can buy. It would be of no use planting freesias or valley outdoors; neither would prove of any value. C. W. MEMBERS ATTENTION!

NEW YORK »^^|^^^™^»'g^ffiy^ffl^my^^|^^ wst ^AtltAtlYAlhAtltAtlTAlltAtltAfl HSMM nationaIj publicity campaign. Is Influencing the Public. Had flowers been plentiful, the busi- ness for St. Valentine's day would have been such as to make the day rank, as a flower occasion, next to Mothers' day. The unfortunate condition of the flower markets throughout the country, which existed before and during the St. Valen- tine's day business period, curtailed possibilities considerably and the vol- ume accomplished was limited only by the supply of flowers available. In the emergency there was a good demand for I'lants. What has placed St. Valentine's day on the map of business, if not our pub- licity campaign? Two or three years ago, the business for this day was or- dinary in volume. A good business prospect was passing into obscurity for want of exploitation. Our publicity committee took the matter in hand and through judicious advertising in the magazines and dissemination of reading articles, which were favorably received by a large number of newspapers throughout the country, among them some of the largest, the public were led to see that a splendid old custom was tailing into the discard, with the result that there has been a revival highly profitable to our industry. This cam- paign work continued through two more seasons has had the effect desired. To insure all possible publicity for the day, our promotion bureau has urged florists individually to connect with the cam- paign advertising through the use of their local newspapers' advertising columns and has supplied many hun- dreds of special electrotypcd advertise- ments for this purpose, all of which in use have added to the publicity for the day as well as serving the local inter- ests of the advertisers. An additional aid this season has been an enormous quantity of poster stamps and window posters sent out by the bureau. Making Demand for Other Days. A similar procedure has characterized the campaign work for Mothers' Day.

D. 68 The Florists^ Review Mabch 4, 1020 RETAIL STORE MANAGEMENT WHAT THE LEADERS IN THE TRADE ARE DOING A BELIEVER IN ADVEBTISING. How decided can be the results of en- ergetic advertising in a small-sized town as well as in a large city is dem- onstrated by the results the florists ob- tain in those places who follow such a course. One does not have to be located on a thoroughfare where thousands pass daily to derive real returns from pub- licity efforts. St. Valentine's day just past showed one such example of re- sults in a small town in the case of the Electric City Conservatory, at Great Falls, Mont. Just how thorough a be- liever in advertising is Charles A. Bur- rell, the proprietor, can be seen from the illustration on this page. Just one or two S. A. F. posters was not enough. Three were framed and put up outside the store where they could easily be read. Below the big electric rose a large-lettered sign flagged the attention of every passer, telling of the approach of St. "Valentine's day. And over the entrance to the store was another large sign, bearing suggestions for floral val- entines. Altogether one could not fail to feel the florist's urging to "Say It with Flowers" on this holiday. The people of Great Falls responded to an unusually encouraging degree. This is what Mr. Burrell says: "As a result of our special adver- tising effort for this occasion, we had by far the biggest St. Valentine's day in our history. In fact, it was so good that it offers no comparison with other years. Bulbous stock and spring flowers were plentiful; we had plenty to go around. And the people of Great Falls and vicinity did 'Say It with Flow- ers.' We offered heart-shaped boxes and they, as well as baskets, dolls and corsages, found extremely ready sale. "We were quite proud of the adver- tising matter that the Society of Amer- ican Florists sent out and we believe it ought to follow the same idea for all special days, such as St. Patrick's day, Easter, Mothers' day. Memorial day, etc." F. T. D. HELPS CANADIANS. To save its Canadian members the premium which they must pay on orders wired to florists in the United States on account of the present disparity in the exchanges of the two countries, the Florists' Telegraph Delivery Associa- tion will open a bank account in Canada, paying bills and receiving payments on that side of the border with Canadian members and carrying on the other end of the transactions through its account in the United States. In notifying F. T. D. members of this new undertaking of his ofBce, Secretary Albert Pochelon explains it as follows: To facilitate, encourage and develop a closer relationship and a larger volume of international F. T. D. business, tbls office hag decided to broaden out and establish an international clear- ing bouse wliereby to save our members the unnecessarj exchange rate that is forced upon our Canadian brothers. The F. T. D. office has decided to establish a bank account on the Canadian side as well as an account on this side, to mall checks owed by American F. T. D. members to Canadian members from the Canadian bank, and Canadian bills due American members will receive Ameri- can checks from the F. T. D. office. Therefore, if you have any bills due Canadian members send them to this office witli your check to cover; this will be deposited In the American bank and a check to cover your bill issued from the Canadian bank. Likewise with the Canadian bills, their checks will be de- posited in the Canadian bank and a clieck issued from the F. T. D. office instead. WINDOW LIGHTING EQUIPMENT. No One Can Pass This Store Without Hearing What the Florist Has to Say. Aids Effect of Display. Much of the dramatic struggle of selling is staged in the silent, yet prop- erly eloquent, show windows, j^b the various factors in store advertising are being given closer analysis, the value of the window display tends to receive a definite cash appraisal. And without light the scene set within the window is obviously unable to make the slight- est appeal. The color of the light must be care- fully adapted to the stock to be shown, some form of color screen often being used to counteract the yellowness of ordinary electric light and to accentu- ate the dominant color of the display. The color of the background, too, must afford a contrast which will give proper prominence to the stock. These and other points were treated in the article entitled "Lighting the Show Window," in The Review of February 26; the prime problem is to fit general principles to particular needs in a way to produce the effect of distinct individuality, that effect which gives force to the motive of any advertising. Choosing the Lighting Equipment. Each window presents its own indi- vidual lighting problem, which, differ- ing in some respects at least from all others, requires special treatment. Two windows may, for instance, be identical as to dimensions and details of construc- tion, yet differ distinctly as to their lighting requirements, due to dissimi- larity in the brilliancy of the lighted areas adjoining such windows, as well as to variations in the color and character of the display in each. For that reason the actual sales-producing value of win- dows will be most surely advanced by basing the selection of lighting fixtures and equipment exclusively upon a study of the requirements of the windows to be lighted, rather than to start out by stipulating that this or that lighting scheme be followed, simply because its use in other windows has taken your fancy, or because it has been more or less recommended in print. True, there is a style in lighting just as there is a style in wearing apparel, but the alpha and omega of all such standards are that one does that which is most individually becoming. The first step, then, in deciding how to make the show window of greatest value in promoting sales is to appraise the measure in which the brilliancy of March 4, 1920 The Florists' Review 69 Th« aoriat* whoa* card* avpMtf on Che paeos caminc tbim hoMl. aro proparod to flU ordoro. .. iroiBofborflorlato for local doll vcnr on tli«naiiallMauu — - adjoining windows, and street lights, will compete for attention on the baaia solely of the attention-eompelling power of light itself, regardless of the relative merits of the goods displayed. The ad- joining— and therefore competing win- dows— may perchance be devoted to the display of goods possessing but a frac- tional part of the attention value or popular appeal of the florist's window, but if the competing window be better lighted then it will attract greater at- tention. _ ,- rsj 1 ^ Consider Display. The next step should be to consider carefully the light-reflecting and light- absorbing power of the display, stipu- lating that the lighting equipment prove equal to supplying a range of illuminat- ing intensity suitable for the maximum and minimum demands for light as made by the displays themselves. Consideration next should be given to the color requirements in the lighting as dictated by the colors and character of the display. The effect of the color in light rays upon the appearance of merchandise was touched upon in last week's article and need not be men- tioned further here. Those three prime points — the effect of competing areas of brilliancy, the in- t tensity and volume of light demanded by the displays themselves, and the choice of color screens — having been de- termined, the conditions imposed by the purely physical aspects of the window can be taken up and solved properly and in order; to attempt to do so before the three prime points have been worked out is no more to be commended than the attempt to prepare a funeral design in advance of information as to the flowers and quantity to be used. Just here it may be well to point out that vision is most comfortable when the object viewed is at eye level and also that people look downwards more readily and habitually than upwards. In fact, tests will show that goods dis- played at any considerable height above eye level frequently are not seen at all by a surprisingly large percentage of people. So it should be recognized that the most valuable display portion of the window is from the floor to a point on a line with, or not much above, the level of the average observer's eyes. Arranging Lights. The light sources, then, must be so situated that their maximum lighting service will be rendered on what we may call the "selling plane" of the window. But the light sources, on the other hand, should be concealed from the view of the observer, as is done in good stage lighting, and so that the un- pleasant effects created by exposed bulbs will not be present. It may, for instance, be decided that the window is to be in truth a minia- ture stage, with footlights to cut the shadows occasioned by the overhead lights, and with light coming from con- cealed sources at the sides or corners of the window to insure plenty of illumi- nation on the vertical, as well as the horizontal plane. Well, there are facili- ties available for accomplishing each of those results and more besides. It mat- ters not whether the window ^as a hijjh lisV Speaking of Heads Which Way Are You and I Headed For? Wednesday afternoon. Bob Davis droppedlin. Of course, you know Bob.

Any good illuminating expert can lay out and in- stall an equipment that will be right in every respect, handling his facilities so that the light will be as mobile and re- sponsive to the control of the window dresser striving after a certain effect as is the piano under the touch of a master. Such achievements in lighting can be seen on the stage any day, and it is generally conceded that the display window is a stage in miniature. To explain in detail just how any par- ticular type of window should be equipped for maximum lighting results would be entirely at variance with the 70 The Florists' Review Mabch 4, 1»20 r m ^ F.T.

Others, again, direct it in a manner to define an object with sharp headlights and clean*cut shadows, or dispense the light so softly that it blends easily into the surrounding unlighted areas. And as to lamps — well, their name is legion. They are to be had in a multitudinous variety of sizes, colors and shapes — one for every legitimate purpose that the window dresser can conceive of, in fact. To mention and describe each and every type of lamp, reflector and so on, would be to write a catalogue, and to ig- nore mentioning even the least impor- tant of such conveniences would be to display a form of partisanship not with- in the purpose of this article. Time Switches Cut Lighting Cost. As a salesman electricity is by far too valuable a servant to be allowed to waste its energies upon vacant streets from whence all honest folk have gone home and to bed, and the time-switch devices now on the market relieve the storeman from all active responsibility about darkening the windows. When the streets are deserted, the automatic time-switch cuts the circuit, and the store windows become darkened. The lights are turned on at any hour set and cut off again when the appointed time arrives. Necessarily, of course, there are regu- lations designed to insure that all light- ing fixtures for both store and windows will be installed in accordance with recognized principles of safe practice, but the splendid lighting effects to be observed in the windows of many pro- gressive merchandising establishmonts should be convincing to all that noth- ing exists in the regulations that will in any reasonable sense interfere with the aims of the florist to make the full- est and best uses of electricity as an aid to selling.

The issuance of life membership cer- tificates to thos? who took out such memberships in the closing months of last year has been delayed through cir- cumstances not under the control of the secretary's office. The influenza in- vaded the office of our engrosser and the work of engrossing the certificates was impeded. The framer who had the contract for framing them likewise suf- fered, and in addition has been obliged to vacate the premises in which his business was established, resulting in delay also from this quarter.

[ContiBued from page 66. 1 We all know that this has been a "made" day for florists, made through publicity, in which the work of our pub- licity committee has been wonderfully conspicuous. All in the trade would suffer if interest in Mothers' day were allowed to lag. Already attempts have been made by hostile interests to sever the connection of flowers with this day of days. Only organized effort can cope with a situation of this kind. We have it in our publicity campaign. But the publicity campaign can be only what the members of our trade make it and they are far short of mak- ing it all that they could. Only a small percentage of those engaged in our in- dustry are contributing to its support. These contributors have the interests of the trade at heart. They are conscious cf the great good our campaign is ac- complishing and see their share of the FOR WEST AND CENTRAL TEXAS AND THE OIL FIELDS "^•^ Brownwood Floral Co.

What was the result t Their sales dropped off thirty- five per cent during that period and it cost them $6,500,000 more to get back where they were before they made the unwise decision. When a concern like Pears', of England, who are interna- tionally known, paid that amount of money to learn a little lesson, may we not learn from them alsof Letting George Do It.

It re- minds me of a story read in a recent number of the Outlook: "Father takes little Peter to the circus. They sit in the gallery and when the lions come in Father says, ' Aren 't you afraid of them, Peter f 'No I' replies Peter, looking over the balcony, ' before they had eaten al! the people in front, they wouldn't be hungry any more.' " It seems that there are many who have been looking on, permitting others to subscribe. Is the reason they have, not sent in their Subscription because they think the others vnll do it for themf Xn order to make our campaign healthy ^nd profitable for all, we must have more material things to keep moving. Your subscription at this time will help ^eatly and will put you in class A, where all belong who have sent in their portion.

The secretary's financial statement assured the commit- tee that enough money was on hand to allow the spending of a good sum for Easter advertising and, after a lengthy discussion, it was decided to use a whole page in the daily Globe-Democrat March 28 and a whole page in the St. Louis Star March 31, at an entire cost of $1,100, and to devote $200 to addi- tional advertising before the big adver- tisements appear. This makes a total of. $1,300 to be used for advertising the sale of flowers and plants up to April 1. it was also decided not to hold a reg- ular meeting again until March 23, un- less something of importance should eofiie up. A special meeting is subject to ■ a call f rem the chairman. / 1 Various Notes. The committee in charge of the St, Louis Garden Club's spring flower show is meeting weekly and will' this week have the preliminary list in the hands 6t the printer. In addition to the many special prizes that are being offered by the big department stores and society folk^ the St. Louis Florists* Club has offered $50 in special prizes, being $10 each for the best collections of cut roses, carnations, gladioli, pot pluits and any other cut stock.

Mr. Graham had no trouble with stem- rot, as he planted from pots to the benches. As the entire product of this range is used in his two stores, he has had a good supply of bulbous stock right along, enough to supply his own needs being brought in each week. Mr. Gra- ham is of the opinion that the high prices are going too far; his argument is that if a &ertain thing costs double to produce, the grower is entitled to double its price, but not to triple. As Mr. Graham disposes at retail of all the stock he grows and is obliged to go on the open market for much more, he should be in a position to understand conditions better than the retailer who does not grow any of his stock. Mr. Graham told me what he thought was a good joke on himself. Last summer, in ordering his bulbs, through an error he ordered twenty more cases of Paper Whites than he had figured on growing. At the timo they were delivered Mr. Mitchell called on him and remarked what a stock of these bulbs he had. Mr. Graham told him of the error and Mr. Mitchell said he would be glad to buy any surplus, as his firm was entirely sold out. Mr. Graham questioned him about the conditions then existing and, though he might have got a substan- tial increase over what they had cost him, decided not to dispose of the bulbs.

STOLL ' Member for was that the error had not been larger. In a chat with Ed. Stevenson, of Stevenson Bros., I found him in a happy mood. The reason for this was that his wife, who has been seriously ill, having undergone a successful operation at the Women's hospital, was improving rapidly. I am sure that everyone con- nected with the trade will rejoice with Mr. Stevenson over this good fortune. When we started to t&lk roses he said they had been having a good cut right ftlong, but in all of his experience he had never seen a winter that was more trying for a rose grower. But with some bright weather their stock was in condition to give a good account of itself. I have not seen John J. Perry, of the S. S. Pennock Co., since he has been sick; so on Washingfton 's birthday I called his home on the phone to inquire for him and was delighted to hear his voice at his end of the wire. At that time he was able to be about the house and the doctor had promised to release him in a few days rf the weather per- mitted. Mrs. Perry, who had nursed her husband and their little girl through most of their illness, was herself taken down with double pneumonia and for a time her life was despaired of, but she has made a good recovery and is now on the way to normal health. There has been more sickness among the trade this winter than in any pre- vious winter within my recollection, but I am happy to say that in only one case has it proved fatal; that was the death of Mary Jane Glass, the wife of James Glass, which was noted at the time in these columns. Robert Johnson, who never lets an opportunity pass, had a fine picture win- dow on Washington's birthday. It was one that attracted much attention. Mr. Johnson has the right idea in letting the public see his handiwork in his window decorations. Tate. DENVEB, OOLO. The Market.

Botanical gardens are now es- tablished at New York, Edinburgh, Scotland, and London. Should such an institution be established here, with beautiful gardens and greenhouses, Canada will be able to educate her own gardeners and commercial florists in- stead of having to bring them from England, Scotland and the United States.

LOWELL, MASS. The Market. Wintry weather prevails in this dis- trict, one storm following another in rapid succession. The snow is at least fifteen inches deep, besides considerable drifts. Almost all traffic is stopped. Business has been crippled, except for funeral orders, which have been numer- ous. Flowers are still scarce and prices are high, chiefly because there is little bulb- ous stock in the market. Boses are re- tailing at $3 per dozen and up; carna- tions, $2 and $3; yellow marguerites, 75 cents to $1.50 per dozen, and Golden Spurs, $2 and up per dozen. There are some potted plants to be had, such as cyclamens, Primula ob- conica, the baby primrose and begonias, but, owing to weather conditions and the difficulty of delivery, the demand for potted plants is small. Various Notes. A representative from the Quality Brands Co., Cleveland, O., was in this city calling on the trade last week and states that orders are being booked freely for greenhouse paint and glazing cement. James L. Kenney, on Central street, is handling a large quantity of roses. Last week this firm had A. Ward in especially good quality and color. Morse & Beals are handling excellent sweet peas with extra long stems. J. J. McManmon's store has had a rush of funeral work for several weeks. £. £. B. KANBAS 0IT7, MO. The Market. With stock more plentiful than it has been for many weeks and prices lower as a consequence, business has lessened to a considerable degree, but not to the point of being slow. Some of the dealers have been exceptionally busy with funeral work, but the ma- jority are doing a normal business. Spring stock is appearing on the market and the stores present an array of tulips, jonquils and hyacinths. Various Notes. The building in which A. Newell is located has been leased and Mr. Newell has to look for a new location. He has been there less than a year and has spent nearly $7,000 in decorating and remodeling. The Ever-Ready Flower Pot Cover The Ever-Ready Stands Oat Strongly in Meeting every Pot Giver Requirement Of What and How Made. It includes a atrone cardboard foundation the outside of which is covered with best quality' Waterproef crepe paper with fiber ribbon ties at top and bottom, and all firmly put together with improved metal fasteaings. Low of Coat. It is supplied at low enough prices to allow of gratis disposal, as the improved appearance of the plant justifiea advanced pricing that more than offsets its cost. A Time and Money Saver. Compared with trimming pots specially, with papers, mattings and the like, it freely saves flower store workers' time and avoids the cost of high-priced materials.

Edward Humfeld closed his shop Sun- day, Tebniary 22, for the first time in many years, joining in the movement for a 6-day week for florists, which has become popular here since it was started just a month ago.

The market. The demand for roses is still in ex- cess of the supply, but with the bright weather that we have had lately, there will soon be sufficient stock to meet any demand. Bulbous stock is light in cut flowers, but in potted plants there displaced the once unequaled Gloire de Lorraine and is now in competition with the newer Melior. Cincinnati was in- troduced to the trade in 1910 by J. A. Peterson, of Cincinnati, O. While it was thus born in the east, the house of it at the range of H. Hayaahi & Co., Oakland, Cal., shows that it thrives well by the Pacific. Roses are coming more plentifully and are of fair quality. Indoor carna- tions have also been good. Daffodils have been water-soaked and unfit to handle, Dutch hyacinths being about the only bulbous stock that is good. A few ranunculuses help out, also anemones, but they do not cut much figure in the market. A scarcity of plumosus has |tH» »,} ,,■ /_ rA.^,}f' \/^ u.

Lily of the valley is once more on this market after an absence of several years. There was an unusual demand for funeral work during the last month. A large number of pot plants were used for orders in the city and the reliable magnolia wreath decorated with a few flowers played a prominent part in re- lieving the shortage. The shipping business has been exceptionally heavy lately. The St. Valentine's day business this year was far ahead of that of last year. Various Notes. F. E. McCormick, of Post Falls, Ida., is shipping some fine calla lilies. Miss B. Hill decided that there was need for another automobile on the road and bought one. The stores which were handicapped by the sickness of some of their em- ployees all report a full attendance now. H. H. BEGONIAS ON THE COAST. No one looking at the mass of deli- cate bloom shown in the accompanying illustration would imagine that those flowers were in any way allied with such a name as beefsteak geranium. Yet careful raising has produced varieties of begonia that are in the front rank as flowering plants for the winter season. This last Christmas they were second only to cyclamens in popularity. Among the varieties, Glory of Cin- cinnati, which is shown here, has largely LOS ANOELES, CAL. The Market. The rain that did so much good to the country generally made most of the outdoor stock unfit to ship and the mar- ket has been bare of the best field car- nations, sweet peas and similar flowers. Many of the growers do not cover any- thing and only greenhouse stock has been salable. developed rather suddenly and prices are up, leaving the way open for other greens. Maidenhair is also in short supply. At the end of last week the weather was fine and this week stock should im- prove in quality and increase in quan- tity along all lines. Various Notes.

Mr. Darling has just obtained his pilot's certificate to sail an airship, having be- come proficient in this up-to-date sport. He is enthusiastic about the joys of flying and has made great progress. Because his manager has left him and because of a bad attack of rheumatism, C. W. Smith is thinking of going out of the cucumber growing business. He will probably sell or rent his range of glass. T. H. Wright, of Wright's Flower Shop, has again returned from the desert, where he has been attending to his mining interests, which are proving happily successful. Everyone lets his beard grow in the desert and Mr. Wright was in such a hurry to get back to the flower game on his return that he did not have time to shave his upper lip. The effect is good. Latest reports indicate that Walter Armacost and his family are all making good progress in recovering from their colds. The L. A. Floral Co. has had to take on additional help to take care of the shipping business. Fred Sperry is back on the job after his turn of sickness. Mrs. Dan Travis, of Douglas, Ariz., was in this city last week. H. R. Richards. SEATTLE, WASH. The Market. Business during the last week has been normal. The heavy funeral work has been lessened, due to the abating of the flu epidemic. Local and California stock is now more plentiful. Carnations are arriv- ing in greater quantities, but the local stock is of poor quality. Roses are be- ginning to increase in number. Some fine Columbia, Ophelia and Premier are to be seen in the stores. Spring flowers are much more plentiful. Lily of the valley is making its ap- pearance in most of the larger stores. Acacia is much in evidence and makes a fine display in the interior of the stores. Potted plants are selling well, includ- ing tulips, hyacinths and daffodils, also a few hydrangeas, but the blooms are small and the plants are irregular in shape. Various Notes.

Kendel, CleTeland, O. From the heavy mail orders now eom- ing in, seedsmen look forward to a big spring business. The shortage of peas has advanced the retail price, according to catalogue quotations, about eighteen per cent. BiSES have been general in the printing trades since the last catalogues went out. The next editions will cost considerably more to manufacture. A COLORED portrait sticker of Charles J. Bolg^iano is used on the correspondence of J. Bolgiano & Son, Baltimore, Mi., to indicate personal service from that gentle- man. Patent on the idea is pending. There has been a marked decrease in the imports of alfalfa seed during the last two weeks. This country and France have been large buyers of Italian alfalfa during the last seven months and the stocks of the better qualities in that country, now in strong hands, are being depleted rapidly. In response to appeals from the Depart- ment of Agriculture, the railroad a^in- istration excepted seeds from the embargo that was effective in the eastern and Alle- gheny regions until February 18. Seeds are to be given the same preference as grain and may now be moved not only toward the south and west, but also east into the eastern and Allegheny regions. California is experiencing a drought said to be without precedent at this sea- son. Since early December no rains of consequence have been received, except some scattered showers, which favored the southern part of the state more than the central. Some growers are gloomy at the outlook. The rainfall so far is about one- third of normal. Water for irrigation pur- poses is short in all sections to the point of being alarming. The lack of snow on the mountains is noticeable, and its gradual melting in normal times assures growers water for irrigation. Some letters say the snow line is at an elevation of 5,000 to 7,000 feet. The water level in wells has sunk so that it costs more to pump than usual. SEEDSMEN LAT7NCH CAMPAIGN. National Garden Bureau Formed. A publicity campaign similar to the one being conducted by the S. A. F. has been taken up by the seedsmen through the American Seed Trade Association. At the meeting of the executive com- mittee of that society, in Detroit, No- vember 20, 1919, a committee was ap- pointed to analyze the opinions of the members and to submit a definite plan of action. It was found that practically all of the seed concerns were in favor of a nationally conducted educational publicity campaign. An organization was formed to con- duct this country-wide educational cam- paign and will be known as the Na- tional Garden Bureau, Its work will be solely to endeavor to revive the pub- lic's interest in gardening. Its mission promises a double benefit, in that the home gardens it advocates will mean a ■3*^ Proven Seeds Early View of Our Trial Gronada Did you ever sow Peacock's Flower Seeds? If not— why not?

Y. lessening of the cost of living to the public and, at the same time, result in what is hoped to be a substantial in- crease in the demand for garden seeds. The committee, composed of Leonard Vaughan, chairman, of Chicago; A. M. Eldridge, of Shenandoah, la., and a third member yet to be selected by these two men, have made all the prep- arations for the launching of the cam- paign and have prepared a prospectus, giving the purpose and the methods of the bureau. A publicity manager who knows agricultural conditions, who has a fair knowledge of the seed business and gardening methods and who is an expert in selecting advertising media, will bo placed in charge. Headquarters will be located in Clii- cago and there will be an office in Washington, D. C. The Purpose of the Bureau. The prospectus, in defining the pur- pose, states that the main object of the bureau is to preserve and increase the general interest in gardening which was aroused by the war garden campaigns. Various propaganda agencies which stimulated this interest have gone out of existence with the coming of peace. The patriotic incentive, which induced newspapers and magazines to publish gardening articles during the war, has disappeared. There remains, however, the interest in gardening which millions acquired for the first time through the war gar- den campaigns. The incentive of war time patriotism cannot be relied upon to induce publishers to devote space to gardening articles, to persuade civic, commercial and social organizations to conduct gardening campaigns or to in- fluence householders to make gardens. But an appeal will be made to publish- ers by pointing out the growing interest in gardening and the desirability of continuing to devote space to it. Civic, commercial and social organizations will be appealed to by emphasizing the vital importance of popular interest in gardening for promoting thrift and con- tentment among householders and con- tributing to the stabilization of labor supply by encouraging the establish- ment of permanent homes. An appeal will be made to the educators by assur- ing them support through a continua- tion of public interest in the sub- ject which will warrant them in making school gardens a permanent feature of their work, and by preparing and dis- tributing carefully prepared courses of study which will enable teachers to handle more effectively a subject with which most are unfamiliar. The media which will be used in edu- cating the public in this gardening cam- paign will be the newspapers, maga- TROMP BROS. SUCCESSORS TO QERRIT SEQERS WHOLESALE BULB GROWERS It LISSE.

Unex- celled for table use, for canning, for tomato sauce, and for dehydration. Thirty to 40 tons of ripe fruit of remarkably uni- form size produced to the acre. The Diener Tomato plant is also blight resisting. Thousands of acres of tomatoes have been ruined in the last few years by blight, but this tomato has been grown side by side with such varieties without being affected by blight. The fruit has reached a size of three pounds; but the average is a one-pound fruit, unusually smooth. The flesh is more solid than of any other tomato known, mak- ing this variety so valuable for dehydrating purposes. This tomato is of a deep red color and very attractive to the eye. The Diener Tomato is specially useful in many localities for the fact that, after being properly started, it is practically drought resisting. The Diener Tomato is an excellent shipping variety, ripe fruit having been successfully shipped from nere to New York. Price of Diener Tomato Seed, $.50 per package; $1.50 per Acre Package.

The campaign will be conducted at least ten months in the year and will be comprehensive. Gardeners will not only be urged to plant, but will be told how to take care of the garden prod- ucts so that the success of one year will prompt them to plant a garden the fol- lowing season and thereby acquire the gardening habit. Due to the lateness of the season, it is undesirable to purchase any adver. tising in any form whatever at the present time, but there is the large amount of work to do in the prepara- tion of publicity matter for free ac- ceptance by newspapers and those pub- lications whose readers are prospective gardeners. IMPOSTS OF GRASS SEEDS. The imports of forage plant seeds permitted entry into the United States under the seed importation act for the first half of February and also for the government fiscal year to February 15 are reported by the seed laboratory of the Bureau of Plant Industry of the De- partment of Agriculture as follows: 7% month!

Compiling a report from replies re- ceived from shippers of millet, sorgo and Sudan grass seed, the Bureau of Markets of the Department of Agricul- ture states that the stocks of most kinds in shippers' hands January 20, 1920, were considerably larger than on the same date last year, the greatest con- trast in this respect being in the case of sumac or red-top sorgo. Total ship- ments of the 1919 crop are expected to equal or exceed those made of the 1918 crop, except for common and broom- corn millet, which are, respectively, about fifteen and fifty per cent less than the 1918 crop shipments. Numerous reports were received of delay in shipments because of railroad embargoes, a shortage of cars and a reluctance on the part of farmers to thrash their seed because of the in- active and low-priced market. How- ever, a comparison of the 1919 crop with the 1918 crop shows that the per- centage of the total shipments of the 1919 crop made up to January 20, 1920, was equal to the percentage of the 1918 Our Offices and WarahovMS .at Umc, Holland 30 YEARS SUPPLYING THE BEST TRADE IN AMERICA BULBS THE SAME OLD FIRM AT THE SAME OLD STAND M.

Eeports indicated that greater per- centages of new-crop golden, common and broom-corn millet, and smaller per- centages of Siberian millet, amber sorgo, orange sorgo and Sudan grass seed were in growers' hands January 20, 1920, than on the same day last year. The average prioe paid to growers for 1919 crop seed of each of the millets and sorgos is uniformly less than that paid for the 1918 crop. The decreases in prices per hundred pounds paid for 1919 crop seed of each are estimated to be as follows: Golden millet, 75 cents; Siberian millet, 55 cents; broom-corn millet, 45 cents; amber sorgo, 25 cents; orange sorgo, 45 cents; sumac sorgo, $1, and Sudan grass, 35 cents.

Though for two decades the gladiolus has been the Childs specialty, yet gladioli occupy not more than ten of the 176 pages and are scarcely more conspicuous in the catalogue than are many of the other items of stock carried by the seedsman, plantsmau and nurseryman. DETROIT, MICH. The Maxket. The supply of stock is going ahead of business and many stores are having special sales these days. The flower- buying public is coming back again, slowly but surely, and it seems good to the retailer to have bargains to of- fer. Funeral work has dropped off a little and what stock is moved has to be pushed by window displays and special sales. Boses are in oversupply, due more to the falling off in their sale than to the increased cut. Premier and Eussell lead in quality, but Ophelia, in large supply, is outselling all others. Columbia ar- rives too much in bloom and, conse- quently, is inclined to stock up the market. Ward, Bon Silene and Sweet- heart are in large supply. Carnations are bein^ cut in large quantities; the quality is good, but the reduced prices fail to clear the market, except in the case of Mrs. C. W. Ward and Philadelphia. Sweet peas and vio- lets are also in large supply, but they can be readily moved by those stores that have special sales. Calla lilies are arriving in increasing quantities; there are always several tubs standing around waiting for the buyer. Calendulas, snapdragons, wall- flowers, bouvardias and buddleias are plentiful. Jonquils, tulips and narcissi are short in supply. Pot plants are plentiful and are easily disposed of. Various Notes. George Doemling, of the Doemling- Schimmel Co., Mount Clemens, reports that they will be cutting more heavily of roses shortly. This spring they will have 20,000 ferns in 6-inch, 7-inch and 8-inch pots. H. T. Giant Pansy Seed In MIxtnre or S«parat« Colors 1000 seeds. 30c: 4000. $1.00; >4oz.,$1.30; oz.. (S.OO.

The color is a most beautiful cardinal red. In size it resembles Chrysanthemum. Can be cut and shipped from one end of the continent to the other and come up smiling. Wonderful for baskets, for vases and funeral sprays. One worn individually makes a handsome corsage. Can be dried, if so desired, and will readily sell at Christmas time and throughout the winter. The larger ones should retail at 112.00 per dozen, as we received $6.00 per dozen for them wholesale, and could not supply the demand of Chicago alone. They are very easily grown— seed sown outdoors about May 1st will bloom from July until frost. We offer a limited amount of seed at $2.00 per trade packet. STRAWFLOWER SEED The big money-maker for florists. We are the big shippers of the brilliant, high- colored Strawflowers which receive so much comment and praise in the large cities of the East and West. We are offering this seed for the first time. Our "Sunny" Brand Special Florists' Mixture. Ox., 75c; H-lb^ $2.00; Lb., $7.00 Sow seed in the open ground from April 1st to May 15th, or plant now in the greenhouse and transplant to the open. ACROCLINIUM ROSEUM Another most beautiful everlasting, which dries easily and is most useful for baskets, corsages and funeral work. Ox., 60c; H-1b., $2.00 Culture same as strawflowers.

As to the Future. Since men are now available and since a good crop of seeds and a fair supply of labor were available this fall, with an average growing season the crop for 1920 should be almost double that of 1919. Though I hate to make predictions, I think we should be safe in figuring that prices in 1920 will be less than half what they are this season. As production increases and conditions become gradually normal, prices will continue to come down, though I ques- tion if they will ever again be as low as in pre-war years. Ten years ago I sold Myrobalan plum 5-9 mm. at $1.10 per thousand; today I cannot buy them for less than $60 net, cash in advance. I do not think we shall ever see those ex- tremes again, for the same reason that we shall never see such a war again. INDIANAPOLIS, IND. The Market. Stock is more plentiful and wholesale prices have dropped somewhat, but the retail prices are still high. The most plentiful is bulbous stock and it is much in evidence. Freesias are abundant and can be purchased in large quanti- ties at a reasonable figure. Other bulb- ous stock includes daflFodils, jonquils, tulips and hyacinths. These range in price from $8 to $10 per hundred. Roses are still scarce. Carnations are a little more plentiful, but are not abun- dant. Prices, however, have dropped to $8 to $12.50 per hundred. Sweet peas are still scarce. Calla lilies are avail- able in small quantities, but practically no Easter lilies have arrived yet. Plants are still good property. At- tractive pots of bulbous stock are on display at a number of the stores. Other plants are cinerarias, begonias, cycla- men and primroses. The Lenten season has caused a lull in social activities, but flowers for the sick have kept the demand at normal. Various Notes. David Vesey, of Fort Wayne, Ind., was a visitor in the city last week. He intends altering his range next spring and is going to devote the entire place to cut flowers. O. E. Steinkamp has been visiting his brother in St. Louis, Mo. BUY C ANN AS NOW! There is no surplus of Canna Roots this season.

Meikel, of Frankfort, Ind,, was recently operated on for appendicitis and is getting along nicely now. E. E. T. Ernest Viewegh has taken Kobert P. Kiefer into partnership with him and they are now operating as Viewegh & Kiefer at 1318 North Haugh street. MILWAUKEE, WIS. The Market. The first accumulation of flowers in three months is the feature of this mar- ket now. It is thought by those in a position to judge the incoming crops that this oV'Crsupply is temporary and that the market will tighten again, probably not in the extreme way which has been experienced in the last few months, but enough to prevent the de- struction of valuable stock. The pres- ent accumulation is due, not to over- production, as the records of previous years show production to be nearly nor- mal, but almost entirely to a decreased demand, coming at a time when weather conditions were such as to bring out an abundance of stock that needed only a few good growing days to mature it. Eoses which brought from 10 to 50 cents each sell now at 6 to 35 cents each, a quantity purchase bringing a lower figure. Carnations bringing ordi- narily $14 per hundred now go at no higher than $6 per hundred for extra fancies. Sweet peas which sold two weeks ago for $5 per hundred can now be had for $15 per thousand. Lilies formerly priced at $4 per dozen now go at $1.75 and $2 per dozen. Daffodils, tulips and and other spring flowers are about one-half their former value in the market. The quality of the stock is excellent; in most lines, it is far ahead of high- priced stock of a few weeks previous. The demand for potted hyacinths, tu- lips, daffodils, etc., is good and the sup- ply adequate. Various Notes. The prospect for lilies, roses and hy- drangeas for Easter is good; there will also be some good bulbous stock. J. E. Schaeffer and E. G. Steitz, of St. Louis, Mo., were in the city last week looking over the Easter stock. Miss Rose Semler, of the Edlefsen- Leidiger Co., is making a business trip to New York citv and the east. A. H. M.

T. Tlie Market. The last week in February marked the end of the familiar stock famine. While stock of the good grades is not so overplentiful as to necessitate sacrific- ing it at ridiculous prices, it is too plen- tiful to bring the prices of the past and some sorts broke badly. Calendulas of extra quality sold as low as $3 per hun- dred, sweet peas brought $2.50 for good stock and carnations were $10 for the best. The supply of good carnations is still short, while more than enough of the poor quality is coming in. Poor Packing. Many of the shipments which have been arriving lately have come from small growers, who, until last week, have been using all they could grow. Indeed, some of these newcomers have been out of the market so long that they seem to have forgotten what they once knew about packing and some are send- ing in their supplies in unsuitable, square, wooden boxes, for which they cut the flower stems to fit. The effect of poor packing on the re- turns to the grower is illustrated by a typical shipment which arrived during the week. It was a wooden box eighteen inches square, containing 350 carna- tions; a man bid $5 for the box; the box was opened from the side on which the tag had been put; it was the bot- tom. The stock was fished out and it looked like a drowned cat; the man backed down with his bid and another took them for $4. Various Notes. The most important decoration of the season was the automobile show job given to A. J. Beichert. The show is being held at the Seventy-fourth armory. This is a wonderful building in which to put up a decoration. The interior, with its gallery and columns, is so proportioned that even a simple decoration can be put up to advantage. For the work Mr. Beichert had the serv- ices of Otto Schoeps. A canopy of south- ern smilax hid the ceiling; 200 cases were used for this purpose. For other decorations, 1,000 palms, 200 crotons and large numbers of other plants were used. Charles Sandiford is back on the job after a severe illness, the result of a cold. John Kramer, of Jefferson street, was the lucky man to have a nice job for a wedding decoration in the church next to his store February 28. F. P. Adams is able to get around again after a few days' stay at home with a cold. F. P. A. GROWERS' EXCHANGE Featuring the BETTER BEST in rooted cuttings and plants of all descriptions.

This photooraph was taken December 6. 1919, and will give a good idea of what HAMBURG LATE PINK looks like when grown to single stems and planted six inches each «Kay. X^i^-^ .,^*^t>»? HAMBURG LATE PINK CHRYSANTHEMUM is an improved late pink Maud Dean, having more petals and, if grown for late, will hardly ever show an open center. The average grower of Chrysanthemums must have varieties which are easy to handle, and from which he can cut as near 100% of perfect blooms as possible. Uambarg Late Pink has been grown for the last four years, and produces a very high proportion of good flowers. It la not an exhibition variety, but for late pluk Is one of the best for commerrlal purposes. It can be had In bloom the latter part of November by taking an early bud, but some of the flowers win show open ceuters. By selecting late buds, after October 1, most of the flowers are cut during December, and would advise to select late buds, as the later buds will hardly ever show an open center, and some flowers can be had even In January. Keeping qualities are excellent and where a graceful pink flower Is wanted, Hamburg LAte Pink cannot be surpassed. Plants ready early in March and all orders will be filled in rotation.

There was a decided change in the market here last week, prices sagging fully a third below the preceding week. For the first time since the beginning of the new year, the dealers have stock to carry over. There was an even bet- ter call for flowers than the week be- fore. Because of the long period of dark •weather, most of the growers in this vicinity are looking for an unusually large cut and the prospects appear fa- vorable for an adequate supply. A num- ber of growers are reported as having promising houses of lilies, though sev- eral report a discouraging outlook for bulbous stock. Various Notes. Timothy O'Connor ie enjoying the warm breezes at Palm Beach, Fla., where he expects to remain for several weeks. Archibald Aikin, of New Bedford, Mass., was a visitor in this city last week.

I intend to build a greenhouse this spring, 20x75 feet. One gable end will be glass and the other will be built against a wooden building. The house viii have concrete walls three feet Idgh and no benches, but all ground beds. It will be six feet from the floor of the greenhouse to the bottom of the boiler. What size of boiler and what size and number of returns will be necessary to give 60 degrees in zero weather f I shall burn soft coal. Can tJ • boiler get along without a nigl t fireman! S. S. D. — Pa. As nearly as can be estimated from the data furnished, about 700 square feet of hot water radiation, including tha mains, will be required to heat the house described. For this, a grate with a diameter of twenty-four or twenty- f e inches can be used, the heater having a rating of 900 to 1,000 square feet, with soft coal as the fuel to be used. For piping the house, it is advisable to use three 2%-inch overhead flow pipes. These may start at the heater or a 4-inch main may b3 used. The rturn connections with the heater may either be three 2%-inch or one 4-inch, without regard to which is used for the flows. Bun one flow pipe upon each purlin and the other a foot or so below the ridge. Nine 2-inch returns will be required, of which three shomd be upon each wall and the others in the walks on the side of the beds. Bun the flows downhill with a slope of one inch in fifteen feet and connect the expansion tank with the highest point in the sys- tem. No regular night fireman will be re- qiiired. SUmnNO FLOW pifes upkell. We are goin; to install a complete heating system this summer, including piping, boiler and boiler room. Every* thing is to be new; we have no ma- teria on hand. We are assuming that hot water will be the best for us. The enclosed sketch shows the sizes and exposures of our houses. All three are in first-class condition. Each house has five 5-foot concrete benches and two narrow benches as shown in house No. 3. Our plan is to run two 2-inch flows on the north and south sides and returns under the benches that are under the gutters. The main flows and main re- turns are to be underground at the east end of the benches, with one 2-ineh flow under each bench at the west end of the bench and one 2-inch return or more, if necessary, under the same bench. This is in order to have as few pipes as possible exposed to view. The location for the boiler room is low and the top of the boiler will be two or three feet below the ground line at the east end of the greenhouses, which have a fall of thirty inches from the west to the east end. W. A.— Tex. The sketch indicates that two of the houses are 40x120 feet and the other 40x136 feet.

The Market. Steadily increasing supply, causing a further drop in prices, allows the re- tailer to breathe a little easier. Last week was the first one in a long time in which we had a couple of dull days. These, however, were not unwelcome, as they made it possible to straighten out the stocks and to go over the store. Easter lilies are showing in good qual- ity on the local market, prices ranging from $25 to $35 per hundred. Jonquils, daffodils, sweet peas, f reesias, tulips and hyacinths are favorites in the order named. Orchids are good, also plenti- ful, but the demand has slackened. Various Notes. The night of February 28 brought an- other snow storm, but the weather cleared the next day and the sun is helping to bring the crop of Easter lilies to the fore. There is a movement among the Louisville retailers to get together for a publicity campaign. Steps are being considered for putting through some- thing new and at the next meeting of the society further plans will be de- veloped. A decided help in making up funeral work is the supply of white buddleia, of which both William "Walker and H. E[leinstarink have good lots. B. MalTem, Ark. — Mrs. B. M.

Carnations, which con- tinue scarce, are $8 and $10 per hundred, while sweet peas of superb quality range from $1 to $3 per bunch of 100. Violets are again a drag on the market and demand only 75 cents and $1 per hundred. Greens have again become plentiful. Some Spanish iris of excel- lent quality is arriving and demanding $12 and $15 per hundred. Various Notes.

The Newport Horticultural Society met Tuesday evening, February 24. President Potter exhibited slides and explained specimens of calosoma beetle, which, both in the larva and adult stages, is the natural enemy of the gypsy moth. There was an interesting discussion regarding the ravages that have been made by the gypsy moth in this section and the success that has attended the efforts in combating this pest. A similar discussion took place regarding the brown-tail moth. The corn borer will be up for discussion at the next meeting. The preliminary work was com- menced on the premium lists for the spring and fall shows to be held by the society. Various Notes. I. C.

Mo- ran, who grows chiefly asters, sweet peas, pausies and peonies, as well as vegetable plants, expects to enlarge her establishment this season. Columbia, S. O,— The Rodgers Cut Flower & Plant Co. has been incorpor- ated with a capital of $3,500. The in- corporators are Francis S. Rodgers, Jr.. and William G. Albrecht, both of Charleston. Ada, Okla.— W. E. Pitt, proprietor of tlio Ada Greenhouses, has contracted with the John C. Moninger Co., Chi- cago, for an additional greenhouse, 27x100 feet. This is apparently a habit with Mr. Pitt, for he has added a house to his range each year for the last five years. MAKCH 4, 1»20 The Florists^ Review in I G 1 0 t 0 ][ Q t Q ][ Q t 0 I Q t f Q I G f G I D t G I From Coast to Coast The first greenhouse manufacturing company to span the continent with offices. IT A G M C 0 The sun never sets on the AGMCO in the U. S. A. No matter where you rj are located, you cannot be far from an AGMCO sales office, for you will find t one in Seattle, Kansas City, Pana, 111 , Chicago and New York. 0 What does this prove? It proves that the demand for AGMCO houses throughout the country has become so in- sistent that the establishment of these various offices was practically imperative. n And what does this mean to you? It means ultra-service to you; figures without delay; a salesman on the ground on short notice; and it means that the best advertising done by The American Greenhouse Mfg. Co. is done by the AGMCO houses scattered over the country — north, south, east and west. This is strong food for thought, but you must digest it rapidly if you're going to get that AGMCO house this year! Sales Offices: U I 0 I G M C Q I Q I D i New York Chicaga Kansas City Pana, III.

MABCH 11. 1920 The Florists^ Review LILIES For Your Easter Use Draw your Lilies from what undoubtedly is the LARGEST AND FINEST SUPPLY IN AMERICA In figuring on the lilies you can use this Easter, consider several factors — remember the flower business is booming, that a tremendous demand is assured, at the best prices ever paid by the public, giving a chance for unusual profits for retailers who provide the stock and facilities to meet the demand. Remember, also, that Lilies will be of much better quality than last year. In 1919 all the Lilies for Easter were from bulbs that had been in cold storage a year and a half — this season fresh bulbs were again available, with the result that Amling's Lilies, forced from large size, selected bulbs, will be of old-time quality. They will sell easily and give unqualified satisfaction to your customers. We offer you any part of 100,000 CUT LILIES for EASTER Packed in wood boxes, 100 or 200 to the box. SELECTED GRADE _ Best and Longest Per lOO $ 35.00 Per 1000 300.00 AVERAGE GRADE Medium Stems Per 100 $ 30.00 Per 1000 250.00 SHORT GRADE Good Flowers, Short Stem Per lOO $ 25.00 Per 1000 200.00 Bear ia mind that the total number of Lily bulbs imported last fall was not over one-half, perhaps only one-third, what America received before the war.

It was conceded that the in- crease will have to be considerable to afford the combine sufficient funds to meet expenses. The American Railway Express Co. is said to be operating at a deficit of something like $24,000,000 each year. Officials state that increases in the rates form the only solution to the present problem. It is pointed out that during government control the railroad administration allowed three separate increases in the wage scale to express company employees. Operating expenses are reported as materially higher than those obtaining before control started. fteneraliy speaking, the situation is not considered satisfactory, but with higher rates, the legal power to continue as a combination and success in eliminating stealing, it is hoped by the officials that ways will be found to put the Ameri- can Railway Express Co. on a firmer footing and to establish service more satisfactory to shippers than that under the government regime. "More business is being handled by express today than at any time in the history of the business," stated an ex- ecutive of the company in this cqnnec- tion. "We calculate that at least 1,000,- 000 packages a day are shipped by ex- press, and we are constantly urged to give more service than we are physicallj able to. "As a single organization we have 24 The Florists^ Review Mauch 11, 1920 been able to standardize express syr- tems and institute many new and more economical and efficient methods of operation. But that only half solves the problem. There must be a consid- erable increase in express rates in order to give the carrier a reasonable profit, 80 that the service may become stabil- ized, improved and satisfactory to the shipping public.

Prizes were awarded for the best and most attractive displays and most of the com- petitors' windows used fresh i)lants and flowers exclusively. It was a big out- let for bulbous stock in ])ans and boxes and for other blooming ])lants. Consider- able Alabama smilax and asparagus was also used. Some of the displays wore a good boost for the use of flowers and plants for decorative effect. Little ar- tificial stock was used, except by the smaller shops. August Kollner, whose specialty is decorating, did most of the work, but many of the florists had sev- eral jobs. This will be a most notable meeting and there should be a large attendance. On this occasion the Gertude M. Hub- bard gold medal will be presenteil to E. G. Hill, Richmond, Ind., for Colum- bia, the best rose of American origin in- troduced during the last five years. Dr. E.

Frederick R. M. Undritz, West New Brighton, N. Y., has requested permis- sion of the executive committee of the American Rose Society to change the name of the variety of rose registered by him, August 23, 1917, as Fredeirick R. M. Undritz to General John Pershing. Inasmuch as this rose has not yet been disseminated, the executive committee voted to allow this change of name. Unless objections are received in the office of the secretary of the society within three weeks of this publication t!ie registration will become permaneui.

The brown spots develop fairly quickly and when they get about the size of those on the sample leaves, or a little larger, the leaves fall off. The plant which is just now affected in this way is a fair-sized tree, being about 15 years old. It is in a good-sized pot and apparently has plenty of root room. R. V. B.— N. "Mex. The leaves have every indication of being frozen. Possibly windows or doors have been left open long enough to af- fect the plant. If you are positive that this is not the trouble, it must be a fun- goid affection and I suggest spraying the plant thoroughly with Bordeaux mix- ture or some other good fungicide. This should be done two or three times at intervals of a week. C, W. NEW OR OLD GROWTH? Can you tell me what is the trouble affecting the vincas which we are send- ing you? K. & S.— Wis. The vinca leaves arrived badly dried up, so that it was impossible to tell much about what was affecting them. Neither could I tell whether the leaves were taken from the vines made in the field before they were lifted last fall or whether they came from the new growth made in the greenhouse. Field- grown plants of vincas lifted from the field in the fall of the year and taken into the greenhouse will lose consid- erable of the foliage from the older vines during the winter time, especially when they are set away in a dark, damp and cold part of the house. It is not so important to consider the older vines of the plants as it is the new growths they are making at this time. If the latter are the ones that are affected, then there is some serious trouble af- fecting the plants which I am unable to determine by the condition of the leaves received. If the leaves were taken from the older vines of the plants and the new growths are not affected, then I would advise cutting off those that are affected to give the younger ones a chance. Also make sure the plants are not being starved in the pots and in need of repotting. M. P. Beverly, Mass.— R. A. Newhall has succeeded J. Mack as a grower of plants and cut flowers. pp|i -jii!yjpji^iji!4Fff»^T'';' r.wTH^T!r."#'ir'.'»»f'"^'''." »v .••i">'i.

The live business man is naturally more in- terested in the varieties that are coming than in "water that has already passed under the bridge," and yet a brief review of the develop- ment of the varieties may be of inter- est. My commercial experience with rose growing extends back only some twenty-five years, at which time I re- call that Bride, Bridesmaid and Ameri- can Beauty were by far the most grown of any roses. Yellow was represented by Perle des Jardins and, to a much less extent, by its two sports, Sunrise and Sunset. In the red section. Meteor was reign- ing supreme; Liberty was the first seri- ous rival with which Meteor had to con- tend. Liberty did not require such an intense heat as Meteor and gave a much longer stem and eventually crowded it out, to be in turn supplanted by Rich mond, the E. G. Hill Co. introduction of 1904. Eichmond proved much more tractable and more free-blooming than Liberty, which, therefore, finally struck its flag in favor of Eichmond. Hadley, Milady, Hoosier Beauty and Francis Scott Key followed Eichmond in rapid succession, with the odds all in favor of Hadley, though men in some sections of the country have made considerable money growing Milady, and Hoosier Beauty, with its delightful fragrance, is still quite a favorite in some markets. The year 1920 ushers in the new red Crusader and, coming as it does from one of our most conserv- ative growers, Mr. Mont- gomery, who gave us Hadley, it seems a safe bet that Crusader will, in the language of the race track, "trot a good heat. ' ' Pink BfMses. In pink roses, my first recollection is a house of Bridesmaid, which, if I recall correctly, I saw in the winter of 1895 in magnificent condition. The memory of that house of roses has never loft me and Bridesmaid, if we could get it today as good in color and as productive and free from mildew as it was then, would still be one of our finest pink roses. Killarney came along and was never formally introduced to the Ameri- can public. Imported by several growers, intro- duced once, if I recall correctly, by Siebrecht as Mrs. Westinghouse a^nd known under va- The address of C. II. Totty, of Jlndlson, N. J., on "The Developmeut of Kose Growing from a Cut Flower Standpoint," delivered before the New York Florists' Club Marcli 8. rious other names, it finally came into its own and was for several years one of our most popular and best paying roses. Killarney was really the first rose that gave definite results; that is to say, it could be pinched at a given date and the crop brought in with the utmost regularity at any desired time. Kil- larney gave us successively White Kil- larney, Double White Killarney, Kil- larney Queen and Killarney Brilliant, a magnificent record, and many growers still have a soft spot in their hearts for the Killarneys, even though they have to give way to the newer aspirants for popularity. Mrs. Jardine flitted across the scene in 1910, but its period was short. John Cook's Seedlings. Eadiance, also, was somewhat of a factor, but was quickly dropped, save by a few of the private growers who liked its free-growing propensities and freedom from mildew. Eadiance and its relative, My Maryland, were both American seedlings of John Cook's, of Baltimore, and neither of them was ushered into the arena with the beat- ing of drums or a brass band accom- paniment; still they played a useful part in progress. My Maryland is still grown to some extent in certain sections of the country. Lady Alice Stanley was imported and grown by several growers about this same time, but Stan- Cbarlfs H. Totty. ley, unfortunately, is inclined to be weak in the neck and not so quick on its "pins" as some of the other roses; therefore it did not last long. In 1913 there was great competition between Mrs. George Shawyer and Mrs. Charles Eussell. Shawyer in some sections becomes badly affected with mildew, but the fact remains that for form and finish a perfect bloom of Shawyer today cannot be beaten in the market. Eussell did not prove so tract- able and it took the growers a year or two to size up this newcomer; when they did, Eussell proved itself a money- maker, since, when properly handled and cut at the right time, it is a marvel- ous keeper and shipper. Today Eus- sell has many friends. Ophelia, which was properly introduced in 1914, jumped into instant popularity. It is a lovely pink color and its delicate shading ren- dered it immensely popular, as it could be used as a light rose in funeral decora- tions. If a lady wanted a pink rose and there was nothing else in the store, Ophelia was sent and it could be made to cover yellow roses in cases of neces- sity. In many cases it was, and still is, without a rival. I might mention also Jonkheer J. L. Mock, which, how- ever, did not get any especially popular introduction and, while grown well to- day in some places, it can hardly be classed as a rose for the average grower. The year 1918 was responsible for the introduction of Columbia, which the C. H. Totty Co. sent out in conjunc- tion with the E. G. Hill Co. Columbia, like every other new introduction, was severely criticised, some growers contending that all the buds were of poor shape and that the rose was coarse, common and everything else. At the present time Columbia stands at the top of the list with the public, and with the grower also, on account of its lovely color and freedom of growth. Where the grower knows enough to let Columbia stay on the plant until the bud has assumed a definite character, there is little trouble about bad buds. Columbia also is spot- proof and the man who is not growing this va- riety should put him- self down as a " back number. ' ' Premier. In 1919 we intro- duced Hill 's Premier, also in conjunction with that firm, and this is still passing through its test period. Some grow- ers who bought it last year treated it a little too well and got a bad dose of spot in conse- quence. When growers get to know its little pe- 26 The Florists^ Review Mabch 11, 1920 culiarities as well as they now know Columbia, Premier is going to be a won- derful rose in the dark pink class. Per- sonally, I do not consider that it con- flicts with Columbia, as it is so differ- ent in color. It will most certainly bury Mrs. Russell, as it is much more tractable in habit and will easily pro- duce four crops to Russell's three. The fragrance of Premier is wonderfully fine and any rose that lacks this most desirable attribute cannot long be a favorite of rose lovers. In 1920 we have Frank H. Dunlop, Madame Butterfly and Pilgrim as can- didates for popularity and we may safe- ly defer judgment on these varieties un- til they have been through the grilling which the different growers will put them through before giving them final approval. Butterfly does not differ rad- ically from Ophelia, saving that it is a much freer grower and of better color. Yellow Roses. Yellow roses were represented for years by Perle des Jardins and its two sports, Sunrise and Sunset. None of these would take the graft, as there seemed to be no congeniality between this type and the Manetti stock. When Mrs. "Ward was introduced, that grafted so well tVat' it was hailed with joy and Ward soon became a good money-maker and still is in many places. Melody was introduced in 1910, but did not meet with popular favor, since Lady Hilling- don, introduced in 1911, quicklj squelched its aspirations. Hillingdon, however, has a tendency to throw con- siderable blind wood, though it is to- day unapproached in its lovely color. With the advent of Sunburst in 1912, yellow roses began to get popular. Sun- burst, like the old Perle des Jardins, evinced a disinclination to graft and we had lots of trouble before we found this out; practically all the Sunburst grown today is own-root stock. Tipperary flitted across the scene in 1915 and Primerose in 1916, but neither one left any indelible impression. In 1917 came Madame Collette Martinette, which has the distinction of being the yellowest rose, but also has an unconquerable aversion to the Manetti stock. Mar- tinette is "snub-nosed" and therefore does not meet with popular approval, at least not so much as Sunburst and Hill- ingdon. We could use nicely today a deep yellow rose of the freedom, size and finish of Columbia.

The history of white roses is compara- tively short. Older growers will remem- ber the varieties Cornelia Koch and Niphetos. The latter is one of the purest and most beautiful roses ever in> troduced, but it had a regrettable weak- ness in the stem; were it not for this handicap, it would be largely grown today for corsage work, as it is in Eu- rope. Bride was a sport 6f the old Catherine Mermet and for years was un- approachable in white roses. The senti- ment of the name and the beauty of the rose itself combined to make it popular. For years a bride's bouquet was not truly a bride's bouquet unless made with Bride roses and nothing except ap- proaching age and infirmity with its consequent crop reduction was responsi- ble for the passing of the Bride rose. Kaiserin had its day, but was grown much more for summer work than win- ter, because it proved "bull-headed" for winter conditions. Since then, White Killarney and Double White Killarney have been the only white roses grown for the market and, as in the case of the yellow, we are anxiously waiting for a first-class white. Mrs. John Cook, introduced in 1920, we understand is not an especially good white in color, but we hear great reports of a new seedling coming out of the west, which will make its debut in a year or two. Such then, briefly, is the development from a cut flower standpoint of all the principal varieties of rose up to the pres- ent day. Many other sorts were pre- sented, but they proved hardly impor- tant enough to mention in a passing re- view such as this. Popularity and Efaciency. It depends greatly on the retailer whether a new rose becomes popular with the public. Another important thing is the proper naming of a new rose. Boses with names that stick to the memory or are easily remembered, such as Bride, Bridesmaid, Killarney, Columbia, Sunburst, etc., and that are euphonious, often perhaps sentimental, are the kinds that sell best. Shake- speare is credited with saying, "A rose by any other name would smell as sweet," but any retailer will tell you that, however it may smell, it will not sell as well as one with an easily re- membered name. Rose growing as a business, in com- mon with all other businesses, has progressed tremendously during the last twenty-five years, but the advent of the efficiency expert has taken away considerable glamour which the old-time grower threw around his roses. If a grower fancied a certain rose himself, he would not discard it even though the market did not have much call for it. Present-day eflSciency methods keep track of each foot of bench space de- voted to growing each variety. The cut from each bench is recorded, also the price the flowers bring, and at the end of every season the returns are totaled and show which kinds are the "sheep" and which kinds are the "goats." Then the variety that makes the poorest show- ing is thrown into the discard. In few places do we see nonpaying kinds car- ried over simply because the grower himself admired them. It is sometimes a matter of regret to older growers to see this and yet nothing can be done to remedy it. Every line of business shows it. I read of an efficiency expert the other day who was trying to produce a March 11, 1920 The Florists' Review 27 breed of roosters that would lay eggs with the hens, thus trebling the quan- tity of eggs he was going to get from a given flock. American Beauty. Modern efficiency is responsible for the limited growing nowadays of a rose which we have not yet mentioned, but which is entitled to a chapter by itself. This is the American Beauty. This va- riety has been grown for years, but nat- urally it does not have the vigor it once had and therefore it does not produce the quantity of flowers it once did. After thirty years, the public has turned from it to the newer and better exploited varieties and, from my knowl- edge of the quantity of Beauties grown now, it is safe to say that the day of the American Beauty is past. There is no doubt that the introduc- tions of recent years have done much to keep the rose before the public. Pit- iless publicity is the only way to en- courage any desired object. We can remember years ago the boom that was created when Carnation Lawson was purchased from Peter Fisher by Thomas Lawson for a large price in order that he might name it after his wife, Mrs. Thomas Lawson. The advertising car- nations received at that time lasted for years, while roses just happened to run along more or less, with the varieties Bride, Bridesmaid and American Beauty suflFering from lack of publicity to sell them. Now, owing to advertis- ing, we have more varieties and, we may safely say, better varieties and are enjoying the topmost wave of popular- ity with the American public, while ear- nations are suffering for lack of buy- ers, though of course the carnation can hardly be called a serious competitor of the rose when one is judging the likes and dislikes of the public. Long Stems. Another phase in the development of roses has been the craze for long stems, which is the wonder and despair of other countries. This, of course, started with the American Beauty producing stems five or six feet long and it was found that by pinching tea roses the length of the stem could be doubled and tripled. The grower shipping his roses in a cigar-box quickly found him- self outdistanced. It would seem at this time that the desire for the long stom has reached its limit, since last winter flowers that had medium-length stems were the first ones sold and the long-stemmed stock in many cases was disposed of only when the retailer found no short-stemmed stock available. "While this was of course largely a question of price, I think the growers from now on will do little pinching unless they want to bring the crop in at some desired pe- riod. In this way they will be liable to niake more money than by growing to niake all the blooms special. To sum up the situation, then, a man who grows good stock, grades his roses properly and places them in the market in the best possible condition, may feel reasonably assured of a good return for liis trouble. Roses have always been the queen of flowers and, in my opinion, will alwavs remain so. J. HABPES HETHEBINOTON. FOR the coming year the Florists' Club of Washington has selected as its president J. Harper Hetherington, manager of the Washington Floral Co. Though one of the youngest, he has been one of the most prominent members of the club, par- ticularly in the last year, having aided materially in the success of Washington 'a ' ' Say It with Flowers ' ' week. Mr. Hetherington was bom in Philadelphia thirty -one years ago. He is the son of the late Joseph H. Hetherington, who served more than thirty years in the employ of the Robert Craig Co. there. While going to school he worked in the Craig greenhouses during his spare time and at the age of 15 he was put on the regular payroll. About four years later he went to work in the Century Flower iShop, of H. H. Battles, Philadelphia, remaining there about four years. Then he went to Washington, securing employment with Fred H. Kramer, and eighteen months later joined the Washington Floral Co., of which he has been manager for the last live years. SPECIAL OFFERS. Long ago the department stores, whose extensive advertising has neces- sitated their study of securing the best results, realized the value of special offers. There was found to be a decided difference between the advertising of a certain line of merchandise and the offer of a particular article in that line. Between the two presentations there is as much difference as there is between the question, "Do you like fruit?" and the query, "Will you have an apple?" Undivided appeal, necessitating, not selection from a number of items, but simply the answer, "Yes," or "No," makes the chances for a favorable re- sponse much greater. Attention is con- centrated on a single item and the stimu- lus to the possible buyer is strengthened. The application of this principle of advertising is not easy in all lines of business. Occasionally it can be ap- plied with success by the florist, particu- larly at a time when stock is plentiful and the retailer is certain of a large supply at reasonable figures. Dollar boxes were formerly an illustration of this principle. Violets are often used by city florists. Grimm & Gorly, St. Louis, last week used tulip plants, which they were able to offer at a price which, compared with previous weeks' flower prices, was attractive to the public. There was a notable directness, also, about Grimm & Gorly 's advertisement for this sale, which is reproduced on page 26. The directness is carried out in the final line, characteristic of the Grimm & Gorly style, "Follow that impulse-^ Phone today." The advertisement is constructed to make favorable response as easy as possible and to minimize con- trary suggestion. 28 The Florists^ Review March 11, 1920 RAISING ORCHIDS FROM SEED. In Infancy in America. The restriction recently placed by the Federal Horticultural Board on the im- portation of orchids has given the or- chid grower an extremely difficult prob- lem to solve, especially the florist who has depended absolutely upon importa- tions, states the Missouri Botanical Garden Bulletin. Orchid raising is in its infancy in this country, the Ameri- can hybrids possibly aggregating not more than one per cent of those tabu- lated in the orchid stud book. In Euro- pean countries hybrids have been raised for years, in the various private collec- tions, particularly in England and. Bel- gium. During the war the finest collec- tions of the latter, however, were lost. In recent years the florist has sold cattleyas at almost the same price as roses and commoner flowers, and con- siderable experience has been required to place the coveted flower within this reach. It is generally conceded that the cattleyas of the labiata type de- teriorate under artificial cultivation, and periodical importations from the tropics, by the thousands of cases, have been necessary to maintain the floral supply. If the future supply will all have to be raised from the almost microscopic seeds the minimum period of five years will be necessary, and the orchid flower will again be the choice rarity of the millionaire. Requires Long Period. The germination of the seeds depends upon the action of a symbiotic mycor- rhizal root fungus, without which fail- ure is certain. During the entire period from pollination to the flowering stage the plants demand constant attention. Eight to ten months is necessary from the pollination of the flower to the ripening of the seel ])od and at least five years from pollination to produc- tion of flowers. Thus, while the orchid hybridist is waiting for his seeds to de- velop, otlier liybridists exporimenting with sweet peas, carnations, water lilies, etc., have succeeded in raising their plants to til* coveted flowering stage. Few florists will therefore undertake to raise the trade cattleyas from seed. Small Opportunity for Florist. Insects upon imported orchid plants, according to our observations covering a number of years, are extremely rare. In fact, during the last fourteen years, only two shipments were infested with borers. These are commonlv referred to as orchid fly and the dendrobium beetle, and their extermination, accord- ing to our exjieriments, was a simple mat- ter. In the early stage the presence of the larva' is indicated by an abnormal swelling of the young growth from strap-shaped to pear-shaped. Orchids are generally imported to a permanent destination, unlike roses, carnations, etc., which are annually vegetated to be shipped to all parts of the country, and it is therefore policy for the florist to keep his plants under strict observation for depredating insects. Unless the government order is re- scinded, the florist will have to turn from the showy epiphytic type^ to the teri;estrial or semi-terrestrial lady 's- slippers. Raising even this variety from seed would not be profitable. The pres- ent stock of orchids in ths country may be rapidly increased, however, by the annual division of the vegetative growths which readily adapt themselves to this medium of propagation. In the western states it is essential to divide the parent plants periodically to in- crease flower production. ceed the capacity of the exhibition halls. More than $300,000 worth of or- chids, it is estimated, will be shown. Albert C. Burrage, who has the largest private collection of orchids in this coun- try, will make an exhibit from his twenty or more greenhouses at Orchid- vale, near Beverly Farms, which will completely fill the large lecture hall. The hall will be arranged' with trees, palms and other tropical vegetation, with the orchids growing on them as they do in their native haunts. Although made to appear like a section of the tropical jungle, the various plants will be displayed to show each one to the best advantage. Orchid growers of Boston, western Massachusetts, New Jersey, New York and Philadelphia will exhibit at the coming show. Assistant Director E. H. Wilson, of the Arnold Arboretum, announces that that institution will make an exhibit of some 130 Japanese azaleas which have never before been shown in this country. These plants were secured from Japan and are now being prepared in the famous Sargent greenhouses at Brookline so that they will be in flower at the time of the exhibition. There will also be large ex hibits of other plants, but the orchids will be the main feature of the show, more than $3,500, in addition to gold, silver and bronze medals, having been allotted for prizes for this class of plants and flowers alone. BIG SHOW AT BOSTON. An unusual number of rare orchids will be exhibited at the orchid show of the Massachusetts Horticultural Society, at Horticultural hall, Boston, March 24 to 28. Applications for space will ex- ORCHIDISTS TO ORGANIZE. A meeting will be held at Horticul- tural hall, Boston, Thursday evening, March 25, at 7:30 o'clock to discuss the desirability of forming a national orchid society for America. This date is the second day of the great orchid show to be held there and all orchid lovers are cordially invited to attend. With so many growers and fanciers visiting Bos- ton's big show, it is believed to be an opportune time to start such a society. W. N.

Flowers Tliat Dye in the Spiiug. At the meeting of the Chicago Flo- rists' Club at the Hotel Randolph Thurs- day evening, March 4, President Waters did not paint the lily, but he dyed the tulip, likewise the carnation and calla. Before the meeting opened, he dissolved the dyes and put them in vases contain- ing those flowers, with some of the car- nations stuck in calla stems as an ex- periment. Then the progress of the colors up into the blooms was timed, the tulips requiring about thirty minutes and proving most responsive. The chief color was, of course, St. Patrick's. In the latter part of the evening, President Waters told how the possi- bility of dyeing flowers in this way was thought to have been discovered about twenty-five years ago by a young woman who accidentally stuck a carnation into tlie inkwell and shortly found a new variety, how a Boston florist had brought out green carnations and how he him- self had carried still further the work of finding what dyes would be drawn up by the flowers and what would not. More Members. The club's meeting, however, drew color from other things than dyes and, while the evening's storm made the at- tendance a highly select one, it was to be regretted that not more were present. Five were elected to membership and twelve names were proposed. The new members are: (J. A. Wrigley, 130 North Wells street; Albert Koehler, 172 North Wabash avenue; H. W.

A Good Time Coming. At the request of Guy French, chair- man of the good of the club committee, the members discussed the question of having a ladies' night and entertain- ment. All were in favor of it and the opinions expressed were concerned with such details as the time and the method of financing, with the trend of sentiment toward holding it in May and having it self-supporting. The matter was left in the hands of the committee. There was also talk of a picnic and several members testified sadly to their memo* ries of the glorious days gone by; Mil- waukee was mentioned with distinct longing. As a result of the report of the gar- den committee, the club appropriated $100 for its use. James Morton, chairman of the committee, said that it wished to distribute, with the ei-^mpliments of the club, copies of two pamphlets on flower and vegetable gardening to more than 1,200 persons whom it had listed from the time of war-gardening as interested in the garden movement. The chairman also suggested that the club offer pre- miums for amateurs at one or two fall garden shows. It was decided that the committee could attend to that matter and that it might be preferable to offer the premi^ims at the show of some gar- den society rather than at a show held by a seed store. Chairman Morton has selected as his coworkers on the com- mittee: Ed Goldenstein, of Vaughan 's Seed Store; Ralph B. Howe, of the W. W. Barnard Co.; John Degnan, of A. Henderson & Co., and Everette R. Pea- cock, of the Everette R. Peacock Co. Tragic Transits. In addition to the flowers which President Waters used as colored illus- trations of his remarks, there were ex- irnVERY now and then a weH- ■S pleased reader gpeakt tlie word which is the means of brifiginj; a new advertiser to Such friendly assistance is thoroughly appreciated.

FLORISTS* PUBLISHING CO. 330-^ Caxton Bldg. Chicago hibited several vases of carnations, seedlings of the Joy Floral Co., Nash- ville, Tenn., which had requested that the club score the seedlings. But un- fortunately the blooms had been dam- aged in transit and, at the suggestion of C. W. Johnson, it was decided that jus- tice could hardly be done the flowers, which Guy French had seen growing in Nashville and considered distinctly meritorious, by scoring these particular specimens. It was hoped that Mr. Joy would send another exhibit of these car- nations. L. F. Kirchner, of Defiance, O., had sent an exhibit of the salmon- pink sport of Enchantress Supreme, which, however, arrived in such condi- tion that it did not seem fair to show them. Introducing the A. F. G. A. The storm-caused absence of Vice- president Pyfer and of Joseph Kohout, president of the Commercial Flower Growers of Chicago, was greatly re- gretted. In Mr. Kohout 's absence. Sec- retary Lautenschlager outlined the de- velopment of what is to be known as the American Flower Growers' Associ- ation, which was recently launched in Chicago. He showed how the relation between production and publicity, through the need of disposing of what was produced at the best possible prices, would make this new organization a particularly energetic and powerful sup- porter of the national publicity cam- paign. The growers will work through this association as the retailers have been working through the F. T. D. In giving his financial report, the sec- retary said that the total receipts of the evening were $434.51, as compared with $280 at the last meeting. Of the $434.51, $187.51 was the refund from the convention committee. He said that the back dues now totaled $395, but that that was a reduction, since January 1. of $150. NEW YORK CLUB MEETS. Discuss Show Arrangements. The regular monthly meeting of the New York Florists' Club was held at the club's rooms in the Engineering So- cieties' building Monday evening, March 8, with a large attendance of members. President A. M. Henshaw occupied the chair, and the proceedings lasted until a late hour. Charles H. Totty, for the flower show committee, reported that the final meet- ing of the committee had been held that afternoon and arrangements for the show were found to be completed. There was no reason, he said, to expect any- thing but a most successful exhibition. A. L. Miller announced that Governor Smith, Mrs. Smith and the official staff would pay a visit to the show on the afternoon of March 17. Manager Her- riugton reported that exhibits sufficient to fill entirely the two floors of the Grand Central Palace had been as- sured. If an entry for a large group or garden were now to come in unexpect- edly ho would be at a loss to determine where it could go. Three rose gardens, a display of acacias of 500 square feet, rock gardens, borders, groups and plenty of miscellaneous exhibits would form a material part of the exhibition. One exhibitor alone had made fifty or more entries, from large groups all down the line. Secretary Young reported that more trade space had been reserved than had been the case at any flower show ever held in the country, altogether about $16,000 worth. In addition, over $4,600 worth of space in the official pro- gram had been sold. The ladies in charge of the tea garden were working energetically and were planning some elaborate features, among them a grand l>all for the Navy Club Friday evening, March 19, which would make for good publicity. The Annual Dinner. Roman J. Irwin, chairman of the an- nual dinner committee, reported ar- 30 The Florists' Review J March 11. 1920 rangements for the dinner at the Hotel Biltmore on the evening of March 17 as completed. Many tables had been reserved for parties, and members de- siring individual seats, he said, had bet- ter put in their reservations promptly, as there was a possibility of the limit of accommodations being speedily reached. Reservations for about sixty seats were made that evening, which carried the committoe over the guarantee mark. The price of tickets, $5 each, he pointed out, covered only the actual cost of the menu furnished, so members would re- ceive value greatly in excess of their payment. Three hundred persons, at the lowest estimate, would, he said, be in attendance at the dinner. The secretary announced that the de- mand for trade tickets from members was not so active as it might be. President Henshaw, therefore, started a drive among those present, which resulted in the sale of about 1,600 tickets. The matter of holding a * ' Say It with Flowers" week during the flower show was discussed, but after considerable discussion the project was tabled until next fall. New Members. The following were elected to mem- bership in the club: C. B. Schultheis, College Point, N. Y.; A. F. Kohlmann, Tompkinsville, N. Y.; Samuel Salzburg, New York city; Anton Ruzicka, Chat- ham, N.

Talks and Reports. Charles H. Totty read an oxc?llcnt paper on "The Development of Rose Growing from a Cut Flower Stand- point," and was given a rising vote of thanks. Anton Schultheis, one of the club's delegates to the recent meeting of the New York Federation of Horticultural Clubs and Societies, reported action taken at that meeting and introduced the following resolution, which was ])assed unanimously and copies of which wore ordered to be sent to the finance committee and the committee on ap- ]>ropriationK of the New York state as- sembly: "Kesolvpd, Tliat tins club urties the finance committee at Alban.v to report favorahl.v on tlie funds demanded to create additional greenlioiises and buildings to properly take care of the dif- ferent new matters coming up continually in the line of agriculture, floriculture and horticulture as recommended by and adopted by the confer- ence of farmers and horticulturists, florists, etc., at Ithaca, N. Y., December 5, 1919." Arthur Herrington, as chairman of the essay and lecture committee, an- nounced that the lecturer at the next meeting would be J. P. Mossman, of Hackensack, N. J., and his subject, "Raising Orchids from Seed." At the May meeting Mr. Herrington himself will be lecturer, and his subject, "The Iris," with lantern illustrations. For the June meeting he hoped to secure a lecture by J. Otto Thilow, of Henry A. Dreer, Inc., Philadelphia, covering his recent trip to the Pacific islands and Australia. H. B. May, as chairman of the ex- hibition committee, announced that the committee hoped to stage at the next meeting some splendid exhibits of orchids and of bulbous flowers. C. Lowther, for the transportation committee, reported that his committer had for presentation an arrangement for travel to the Cleveland convention, Monday, August 16, by way of the day boat to Albany and thence by train to Cleveland. Anyone wishing to leave in the evening by train from New York could join the party at Albany, Another plan was to proceed by rail to Buffalo, thence by boat to Cleveland. Action in the matt?r was deferred. A vote of thanks was passed to the house and entertainment committee for the enjoyable spread served in the club 's refectory that evening. Exhibits and Awards.

We hear of large corporations making large investments in greenhouse ranges for the purpose of growing plants and cut flowers. Anyone who is watch- ing the signs of the times will realize that this means an entire change in the methods of production. By this I mean that every item in the cost of produc- tion will be studied by efiiciency ex- perts and both plants and cut flowers will be produced and put on the market and sold at a minimum cost. Take any of these corporations that are at the present time making these large investments. They have no idea that the present high prices are going to continue indefinitely, but they do see that with modern ranges and efficient methods, the cost of production can be cut in proportion to the reduction in prices that is bound to come. It is a well known fact that in spite of the present high cost of building material, the greenhouse construction manufactur- ers have more orders booked than was ever known in their history before. If all of this means anything, it means that the old slipshod methods that many of us are so familiar with will be a thing of the past. Looking Backward. There is a generation of men in the florists ' business, who, like myself, can remember the time when our fathers were laying the foundation of the busi- ness as it exists today. These men will remember the makeshift houses and the waste which was connected with them. For instance, if a new house was to be erected, the services of the village car- iier.ter were secured and all of the avail- able men on the place were his helpers. This work was always done in the sum- mer at the expense of the growing crops, but fall would come and the new house would be under way to fulfill the object for which it was erected. Stop and consider the amount of waste connected with such a house. In most cases, the sides were 1-inch thick 12-inch boards; these were lined with felt paper. There was twice as much wood in the roof as there should have been, defeating the primary idea of a good greenhouse, namely, to get every ray of sunlight possible. The ventilators were all that the name implies, for in most cases they ventilated in cold weather as well as in warm weather, but in those days coal was cheap and the florist did not mind contributing some of his fuel to heat the great outdoors. In a house 100 feet long, the difference in the thermometer from the end where the fire was to the smoke- stack was anywhere from 20 to 30 de- grees. There is many a man still in business who, as he reads this, will recall many a stormy night when he was afraid to go to bed, when he went from one house to another with hie lantern all through the night and, if it was windy, he would often have to tie the roof down with ropes, or if the snow was heavy, get up in the gutters and shovel it out. Those are only a few of the obstacles we had to contend with. We never stopped to think of the repairs we were obliged to make each fall. If a house was becom- ing a little old, it would mean rebuild- ing. Yet in such houses good stock was produced and money was made, because the margins were large and everything that went into the cost of production was cheap. But in those days there were men who were wise beyond their years, men who realized all of this waste, and they studied the problem. From time to time improvements were made and today we have firms in this country who have reduced the construction of J p*,iy"!W''i,B^''» \y ii^M^l^^L^i^;^9jmPfl||^Hf)ap^lH^«uuRfi Kll iiM/.il, wq!|t^.>'«'.'iv77iqfp|Mluilf. . ;,|iwji»«.iii^»iiH» ifjpv'iWJ i»'"i«,W'! '« Mauch 11, 1920 The Florists^ Review 31 greenhouses to a science. These men know what kind of house you need in a certain location better than you know, because while you have been busy with the production of flowers, they have been just as busy, and in a great number of cases have gone away ahead of you, in the subject of durable and economic houses. All that they know they have learned from the florist. Looking to the Future. I can remember the time when there was but one construction company in the east and it still exists today. Formerly the only houses it was called upon to design and build were conservatories on private places. As time went on some of the bolder spirits in the commercial end of the business had the company erect houses for the commercial produc- tion of flowers and, in following instruc- tions from these growers, the construc- tion men learned just what sort of greenhouse was required for the produc- tion of flowers. They were quick to improve on all the points they obtained and today we have the modern iron- frame greenhouses, with concrete walla and, benches, with roofs that have a minimum amount of wood to obstruct the sun's rays and heating plants that are as near perfection as possible. Like the fireproof buildings in our great cities, these modern greenhouses are rot- proof, for there is nothing about them to rot and this brings the repair account • lown to a minimum. In fact, I know of houses that have been in use for the last fifteen years which have no repair accoant except painting and perhaps a few panes of glass broken through ac- cidents. It is in just such houses as these that the flowers of the future are goinor to be produced, because the time is fast approaching when efficiency is going to be the watchword in produc- tion and the man who anticipates an .'iddition to his range would do well to give this matter serious consideration. Counting the Cost. Of course. I can hear many growers who are ready to say this all sounds well on paper, but that they could not afford such houses. When I was a young man, not yet of age, an old He- brew banker, one of the most successful in the city in which he lived, was giving me some business advice; it was this: "Young man, get into debt." His argument was that a business man who was not in debt did not amount to much. At that time, debt was the thing I was trying to avoid, but many a time since I have realized the wisdom of the old gentleman's remarks. In those days money could be had at five or six per cent interest. This old banker figured that a business worth anything should make a net profit on the amount bor- rowed equal to what it cost and at the same time create a sinking fund to take care of the principal. There is food for thought here for everyone who is think- ing of building. Ponder it well; think of the efficiency of the houses; think of the repair account saved and, above all, remember that there is always going to be a market for flowers, but that if you want to stay in the business you mus*. produce them at the lowest cost possible. Tate. WORKINa FOR BOND ISSUE. The claims of other cities to high rank among American metropolitan cen- Vlocent J. Gorly. ters have stirred St. Louis to efforts to maintain her position near the top. So a $24,000,000 bond issue is being planned. And to bind all interests to- gether in the effort to promote the pres- tige of the city, Mayor Kiel ha.s formed a committee, on which serves a member of each prominent organization in St. Louis. Since membership on the com- mittee implies a position among the leaders in the profession represented by the organization, it is considered a dis- tinct honor to serve thereon. The flo- rists' profession is represented by Vin- cent .T. Gorly, of the retail firm of Grimm & Gorly. President Hunnnert, of the St. Louis Florists' VAuh, made the selection. shift. But times have changed. With increasing demand, stock has been shipped more and more before it was ready, until today many florists seem to consider that stock is ready to come "out of" pots of a certain size when it has been in them long enough for the ball of soil to become fairly solid. Of course such stock from the first pot is little more than rooted cuttings and should be sold at little more than the rooted cutting price. No doubt we shall go back to the old order of things when production again overtakes demand. THE CHANOINO TIMES. I am sending, under separate cover, samples of geraniums I received, sup posed to be out of 2-inch pots, at $35 per thousand. This being my first at- tempt to grow geraniums, I am asking if these are fair samples of the plants one must expect when ordering 2-inch sizet You will notice after the hard ball of soil is removed you will have to look closely to find the roots. H. E. W.— N. Y. CYCLAMENS SHOW DRYNESS. I am sending you some cyclamen leaves. There is some disease. aflPecting tliem, of which I do not know. Please inform me of the disease and the treat- ment to overcome it. A. M. — Mich. The geraniums sent are not what, under normal conditions, one would ex- pect to get out of 2-inch pots. The old school of florists believed that a plant, to be "out of" a certain size of pot, should be well rooted around in that pot. In other words, the roots should have thoroughly permeated the ball of soil and worked around the pot, and the plant should be ready for a The cyclamen leaves arrived badly dried up, but they appeared to be in- fested with thrips and red spider. As the season for flowering plants of cycla- men is about over, there is little to be (lone with the plants now. When grow- ing cyclamen plants for another season, be most particular in giving them an even temperature, so that they are not^ subjected to an extremely high tempera- ture or dry atmosphere, conditions which quickly cause the trouble that seems to be affecting the foliage of these plants.

There were, however, two or three saving factors. The new advertising campaign was put into action March 9 and unquestionably helped a rapidly reviving city retail trade. The retailers all have been do- ing a good business and the moderate price at which they have been able to obtain flowers has encouraged them to greater effort. Then the weather has been cold — winter's last kick, we hope — ajid it has held back production. At the same time there has befen an ocean of flowers; no scarcity anywhere in the list. Prices havg varied widely and there have been accumulations it was impossible to move, because sales to department stores and other cheap local buyers have become suddenly unpopular. Sweet peas have come in heavily, the days having been clear if cold. Much of the stock is short in stem and strictly fancy peas still sell well in spite of the oversupply. Roses, too, are much more abundant, and so are carnations, vio- lets, valley, tulips, Darwins, jonquils and nearly everything else. The possible ex- ceptions are cattleya^ and freesias, the former being between crops and the lat- ter drawing toward the end of their sea- son. Lilies are seen in some quantity. the early birds of the Easter crop. They are not in special request, as the call for funeral work has subsided to something like normal. The same condition affects the sale of callas. Except for the short- stemmed sweet peas, most of the stock on the market is of excellent quality and there is every incentive to push the busi- ness. Asparagus is the only shortage among greens. The Florida growers have had their own troubles of late. March 2 there was a sharp frost, which will put some of them out of business for from one to six weeks. Also, there have been express embargoes, with the result that ^^ MARCH 11, 1920 Thg Florists^ Review 39 Lilies for Easter $25, $30 and $35 per 100 l^z^v'^^v'''^,^'^^ T' ^'''^'' ^"T ""w! ^t^*^*^' M'^-^^' «*M*a ^v^%^ ^^A A'tyrv pjandalls Lilies famous for so many years.

The consensus is that Easter will make a new record for the trade, not only in the Chicago market but through- out the country. A tremendous volume of shipping business is expected. The view IS that there will be stock enough, but not too much, and that good values can be realized as the result of the pub- lic's willingness to spend. Roses and carnations will be in lai-ger supply than last year, also of better quality. As to lilies, everyone says they will be scarce, but there is beginning to be a suspicion that cut lilies will go around — at the price. Various Notes. The E. Wienhoeber Co., Elm street, has completed plans for the increase of its capital for the purpose of admitting the older employees to a larger participa- tion in the business. The newly created shares are to be soldvto the employees on favorable terms. Mr. Wienhoeber is gradually turning the business over to the younger men. The death of Harry M. Higinbotham, which occurred March 5, removes an- other of the family which came into prominence in trade affairs when ,T. D. Thompson and James Hartshorne built the range of the Chicago Carnation Co., on the Higinbotham estate at Joliet. It was Harry, representing the sons and daiigliters of the owner, who closed up the affairs of the original corporation and leased the greenhouses to the pres- ent concern, of which P. \V. Peterson is the head. Mr. Higinbotham was 51 years of age. .lohn Weiland is having an excellent season on the north shore. Both the stores, at Evanston and at Wilmette, have been steadily busy. For a time there was a preponderance of calls for flowers for the expression of sympathy, •ays. Manager John Weiland, Jr., but A WORD to the Out-of-Town Retail Florist by a GROWER You wanted and expected something to be done, something that would be accomplished in tangible form, that would represent YOUR RIGHTS. The initial steps in Chicago were taken in the Growers' Petition of 1916, the first official and practical document towards practical changes in improving MARKETING CONDITIONS. I was its first signer. It pointed out what could be done for you as a Retailer — these things that are now occurring. The Retailer finds conditions unjust in Extreme High Wholesale Prices and Extreme Low Prices. At times of low prices Department Stores take advantage of the competitive system of one Retail Florist against another in the same locality. Stranger still are the sources of supply that at such time provide the Department Store. Your interests are under my observation in my close contact with the Marketing Problems as they directly present themselves in Chicag^ Your attention is called to your opportunity. Take advantage of it. JOSEPH KOHOUT Wholesale Rose Grower LIBERTYVILLE. ILL. March 11, 1920 The Florists^ Review 41 YOUR PROTECTION Jan. 1st, 1917, our policy embodied certain principles of conduct- ing a wholesale house "under growers' super- vision," that would KEEP US OUT of any criticism of GROWER and RETAILER. H. B. Kennicott, Pres. Read this Advertisement of a Department Store IN BIRMINGHAM: "SATURDAY, a sale of fresh Cut Roses and Carnations at 373^c a DOZ- EN. Sold in original bunches of two dozen each for 75c. "Saturday morning, at 9 o'clock, we will place on sale a generously Large Shipment of gorgeously beautiful fresh Cut Roses and Carnations — Cut Flow- ers that you pay $2.50 to $3.50 per dozen for, every day in Birmingham. A sale that enables you to 'Say It with Flowers' without the customary excessive 'Tax Talk/ and because these Roses and Carnations come to us in original bunches of two dozen each, we will sell them the same way. 'Say It with Flowers' to mother, wife, sweetheart and that friend who is ill and who will appreciate them most." A WHOLESALE HOUSE can expect the respect of its position in the trade only as it has the full confidence of the Growers and Re- tailers.

He has been on the road in the middle west continuously for many months and says he never has seen a time when the trade as a whole has been so prosperous as now. Last week The Keview noted that March 5 was Peter Eeinberg's birthday anniversary. The Tribune published a portrait of the florist and said: "Peter Reinberg, native son of Chicago, presi- dent of the board of county commis- sioners and the county forest presetves, for eight years alderman for the Twen- ty-sixth ward and a former president of the board of education, yesterday cele- brated his sixty-second birthday. Friends smothered him with congratulations. Peter was born at what now is North Robey street and Balmoral avenue. His father came to Cook county in 1848. The Reinberg family still owns a con- siderable part of the original Rein- berg farm." NEW YORK. The Market. Another unusually severe storm, with rain, sleet, hail and snow, Friday, March 5, disrupted transportation facil- ities and made shipments from many near-by points difficult, if not impossi- ble, for twenty-four hours or more after- ward. However, the market supply of cut flowers was little disturbed, except in the case of a few items, for the reason that prior to the storm there was an accumulation of stock, the hand- ling of which was becoming rather awkward. Conditions Monday, March 8, were much improved and transporta- tion was normal over most routes. The supply of cut flowers is quite plentiful, particularly in the case of bulbous stock, which is arriving in large quantities. Staple lines are much affected by this influx and prices gen- erally have gone down to a point not experienced for some time previous. Tulips of good quality are to be had almost at pre-war prices, 35 to 50 cents per bunch being the range for ordinary varieties, with 75 cents for especially interesting sorts. Daffodils are on the same plane, being extremely plentiful. Freesias move at 10 to 35 cents per bunch, according to quality, with extra long-stemmed Purity bringing as much as 50 cents per bunch. Iris, usually available at this season, is little seen. Sweet peas are in heavy supply and l)rices have tumbled considerably, 50 cents to $2 now being the range, with good stock moving at $1 to $1.50 and extra long-stemmed flowers occasion- ally bringing $3. Roses are in good supply and clear- ances, with the exception of American Beauty, which is in short but quite suf- ficient supply, are at times quite diffi- cult. The general quality of arrivals is good, but the demand is evidently affected by the liberal supply of spring flowers available.

There is •much stock of inferior quality in the market and really fine blooms are scarce. The price range is about $15 to $50 per hundred, with a few bringing as much lag $75 per hundred. Gardenias are •ovcrplentiful, as may be judged from their appearance in the hands of street peddlers. Selected stock moves at about $3 per dozen and the rest at prices be- tween that and $1 per dozen and even less. Easter lilies are fairly plentiful again and are to be had at $20 per hundred downward. Both longiflorum and for- mosum varieties are available. The high prices expected for the Easter supply of lilies appear to be fading away as the certainty of a bountiful supply be- comes more apparent. Lily of the val- ley is extremely abundant and clear- ances are made only through conces- pions from the range of prices quotable, 50 cents to $4 per hundred sprays. The supply of miscellaneous flowers is much increased and values have de- clined materially. Acacia at $1.50 to $2.50 per bunch and lilac at $1.50 to $2 are especially choice. Lupines, pansies and primulas are in fair supply at I)rices according to quality. Flower Show Plans.

For several years the florists and horticultural men of this state have been working to get a state horticul- tural building at the state fair grounds. When a bill was proposed recently in the legislature to put up another $600,- 000 barn instead of an agricultural building, W. A. Adams, treasurer of the New York State Horticultural Society, went to Albany, where with many others, he endeavored to impress upon the committee the injustice being done by putting off the horticultural struc- ture for more barns.

The first week of March closed dis- astrously for the cut flower market. There has been no business. The sup- ply was only moderate, yet prices fell, nay, tumbled fast. The decline was so rapid that it fairly startled even the keenest traders. Interest centered in the last two days of the week, when it was hoped that the special sales in the shops and the job lots of leftovers and culls on the street would clear the ice- boxes for a fresh start Monday, March 8. With such a start, it was confidently predicted that there would be no fur- ther decline this month, but it was not to be. The blizzard Friday night, March 5, spoiled the special sales in the shops and completely stopped street trading. True, it reduced the supply, but the supply already on hand was more than sufficient for all purposes and the mar- ket closed weakly, with prices decidedly low and much stock carried over. While values are low, it is by com- parison with those which prevailed dur- ing the winter. Compared with other years at this season, they are satisfac- tory. Carnationa most clearly bring out the change. During the winter the quo- tations ranged from $25 per hundred for Laddie down to $15 per hundred for anything, but during the last week in February only the best stock brought $15 per hundred. The first week in March they sold at $6, $8 and $10 per hundred, the sales at the higher figures being for the best only, while a poor grade was hard to sell at $4 per hun- dred. Pretty much everything is cheap and plentiful, with only a few exceptions. Beauties, of course, are one of the ex- ceptions, the spring crop not being in bloom yet. The special sales are chiefly in cut daffodils, sweet peas and violets. Calendulas would benefit by about a dozen good, big special sales.

Sec ond, the offer should be backed up. In the present instance, Mr. Pennock thinks that much of the success of this particu- lar sweet pea offer depends on how fully retailers carry sweet peas in stock.

Two Exhibits. There were two exhibits at the March meeting of the Philadelphia P^orists" Club, held in the roof garden of the Hotel Adelphia March 2, which demand fuller notice than could be given in last week s brief telegram. They were the sweet peas and the acacias. The sweet peas of the W. Atlee Burpee Co. are said to be the finest exhibit of fash ion's fragrant flower ever made at this season, either here or in New York. Th,ey comprised fifty varieties, one vase of each variety, all of the early-flower- ing, orchid type and all the company 's own seedlings, in many exquisite colors and shades of color. We are told that they were all grown in one small green- house at Fordhook. They represent the work of George W. Kerr. They open a vista of possibilities. The other exhibit also was rare and beautiful. It comprised cut sprays of eleven varieties of acacias; each vari- ety was in a vase by itself. They were shown by William Kleinheinz, of Lyn- wood Hall, and represented his work with the collection purchased at Conven- tion hall from Thomas Roland, of Na- hant, Mass., some five years ago. It was said at the time that Mr. Roland felt that his collection, which was the admiration of flower lovers at the na- tional show, had fallen into good hands. This is certainly true.

John Berger, who has worked hard for the publicity campaign, teases Rob- ert Kift by telling him that sweet peas were good stock until the publicity com- mittee took hold of them. Henry F.

Gilbert Woltemate had the misfortune to have the iron smokestack blow down that awful night of the blizzard. Louis Berger arranged a beautiful window with plant baskets for William Berger 's Sons. Each basket was filled with a single variety of blooming plant. The selection of baskets and their ar- rangement betokened the artist. Robert A.

Condi- tions show, in comparison with 1919, an improvement, but present prices seem decidedly low to growers and salesmen when compared with the extreme values maintained through January and Feb- ruary. We always get a Lenten slump and always hear the story that business is "the worst ever known at this season," but previous years' data do not bear out these pessimistic pronounce- ments. Koses are somewhat oflP crop with most of the growers, but are more than ample for the demands. On short-stemmed stock, prices have dropped to as low as $20 per thousand, while the demand for other grades is not at all robust. Car nations are coming in abundantly and are of fine quality, but values are down to $3 to $.5 per hundred, with white es- pecially weak. Both violets and sweet peas are plentiful and move slowly. Lilies are hard to move at much reduced prices. Daffodils and tulips are slow at $4 to $5 per hundred. Calendulas, wall- flowers and forget-me-nots are in heavy oversupply.

Thurston, manager of the Boston Flower Exchange, on whom one or more retailers cast aspersions at the February meeting, de- fended himself in vigorous fashion and was warmly applauded. Charges made against him proved to be unfounded and those who had made them expressed their regrets. The wholesalers had the floor and Charles E. Eobinson, of H. M. Robinson & Co., started the ball rolling. He dis- cussed the causes of the present slump in business and said that high prices were not good for the cut flower busi- ness. We must endeavor to create a demand for flowers. The wholesalers were not considered so much as the re- tailers, although the bnlk of the flowers coming into the cut flower markets in Boston were handled through them. In- stead of having a market manager buy flowers for retailers, why not compel them to buy from a wholesaler? Co- operation and a get-together policy were never more necessary. Edward Welch, of 'the Welch Bros. Co., thought that salesmen should not do a shipping business; if they continued to do so, why should not wholesalers be allowed to sell at retail on occasion? Benjamin A. Snyder, of the Boston Floral Supply Co., made a vigorous ad- dress. He said that the wholesalers were the men who looked for markets for the produce grown and that they had to face competition from other flower- growing centers. He scathingly de- nounced salesmen for refusing to sell a particular variety of rose or carnation unless a proportion of other colors, usually less salable, were taken. He also scored the practice prevalent among salesmen of buying from one another early in the morning, when prices were high, and demanding extortionate prices for such produce.

Sidney Hoffman suggested that whole- salers and retailers get together and start a publicity campaign right away to let the public know that flowers are more reasonable in price. W. H. Elliott said that his experience had been that, in times of glut, the wholesalers were the real distributors. He did not see why the retailers should be allowed to buy at the same favored price as the wholesalers. The growers received more from the wholesalers than the retailers. The grower had by far the greatest amount of invested capital. He sug- gested that, to stop the present-day practice of salesmen making up floral de- signs to sell at retail in the wholesale markets, the retailers do so and allow a reasonable discount on orders. The re- tailers, in his estimation, made their money too easily. H. H. Bartsch said that plants were uniform in price and did not vary like cut flowers; you never could tell custom- ers what flowers would cost for even a short period. W. C. Stickel considered the retailer to be the legitimate channel through which the grower's flowers could be disposed of. Further remarks were made by J. Frank Edgar, A. I. Parker and others. It was urged by several speakers that now was the time, when flowers were abundant and cheap, to give the fact wide newspaper publicity. A subscription was started on the spot and the money received, together with what was added a day later by those who had not attended the meeting, was used to pay for bold, striking, advertisements in the leading Boston dailies March 5. Professor J. F. De Chant, vice-presi- dent of the Sheldon Business College, the speaker of the evening, made a short address on ' ' Cooperation. ' ' As the hour was late when he commenced, it was sug- gested by him that he come again at the April meeting and the audience unani- mously agreed to this. A handsome vase of snapdragons graced the president's table. Boston Horticultural Club. The Horticultural Club, at its meeting in Young's hotel March 3, was favored by an illustrated lecture on orchids by George I 'Anson, Beverly Farms, Mass.

L. Farquhar. A special committee was appointed to consider the desirability of having a special dinner during the week of the Boston flower show. Various Notes. The Massachusetts Horticultural So- ciety, through its board of directors, has drafted vigorous resolutions on <5uarantine No. 37 and will ask the sup- port and cooperation of every state hor- ticultural society in the United States in an effort to get this obnoxious meas- ure radically modified. Many growers are still having a hard time to secure enough fuel to keep their greenhouses from freezing. William Sim, of Cliftondale, one of the best local growers, who specializes in carna- tions, violets and polyanthus, says that he has been paying $25 a day for a truck to haul coal, and that all it could haul daily was seven or eight tons, so badly wero the roads blockaded with snow. The many friends of the esteemed Alexander Montgomery, of Hadley, were pleased to see him in Boston March o, looking remarkably well after his operation and serious illness. At Penn's, the volume of business done in February went far ahead of that done in the same month in any pre- vious year. The success of Boston's big spring show, which opens March 24, is prac- tically assured. Sufficient entries have already been received to fill practically the entire building. A. C. Burrage's orchid display is to be by far the largest and most valuable one ever staged in America, and it will completely fill one large hall. Another inspiring collection will come from the .Julius Roehrs Co., Rutherford, X. .7. A remarkable collec- tion of Karame azaleas, which were se- cured by E. H. Wilson in Japan for the Arnold Arboretum and which are a new and remarkable race, will occupy 600 square feet of space. Thomas Eoland will have two fine groups of acacias and other notable displays will be made by R. & J. Farquhar & Co. and many others. The exhibition will be the most noted spring display ever seen in Boston and, as it is being heavily advertised, a rec- ord attendance is certain. Thomas Roland started marketing finely flowered Tausendschoen roses a week ago. He has a grand lot of roses and French hydrangeas coming along for Easter and his acacias and ericas are remarkably fine.

Driven by a 50- iiiile gale, the blinding snow fell for sev- .ral hours and almost paralyzed train ;iii(l street car schedules. Having been jpieceded by a warm day and heavy moisture, the cold wave and snow com- pletely upset business in the city and nearly all stores closed at noon to allow their employees time to reach home. Business at the wholesale flower mar- kets suffered severely and long-distance flower shipments were refused in many cases. Continued low temperatures and high gales characterized March 7 and 8. Arthur Bobbins, who for some years has conducted a store on Winter street in partnership with "Pansy" Leibman, has sold out his interests to the latter and will soon open a new store on his own account. Wax Bros, are well settled in their new store on Temple place, where they have a commodious, well equipped es- tablishment. They report good business, especially in funeral work. W. N. C.

Many successful Florists have used McCray Refrigerators for years and years with perfect satisfaction. They have unbounded confidence in the refrigerator which bears the name "McCray" for it stands for quality and unequalled service. Viewed solely from the selling end, the McCray has superior qualities — for it aids in selling flowers and at the same time puts a stop to waste from spoil- age. The various compartments are of different sizes and accomodate the different lengths of cut flowers. Both the exterior and the interior of the McCray Florist Refrigerators are handsomely made and easy to keep clean. You may have either heavy plate mirror or white enamel for the interior lining. The exterior may be of any finish to match your woodwork or fixtures. There is a McCray built to suit your requirements. The styles illustrated here are designed for Florists, but this is not our complete line. Our Catalog No. 74 shows many more refrigerators.

NEW YORK mtri interest such as is shown in the following letter, addressed to the secre- tary by Charles F. Meyer, president of the Corporation of Chas. F. Meyer, New ^ ork, it is time that the large body of t'Orists who have not yet subscribed, to our campaign fund should appreciate ^\'liat is being done for them: On my recent trip south and west I took par- ' cular notice of the publicity campaign and was »iuch gratified and pleased to see the good Im- pression it made upon the public and Its bene- tlrial results to the trade. Indeed, the slogan, ">Say It wltli Flowers," expresses so much in all conditions of life, be it love, friendship, sickness or (lonth, that it has taken a strong hold on the public and I really believe that the increased demand in flowers is to a large extent owing to it and the advertising In general. All of which impressed me and made me feel that the adver- tising crusade ought to be supported liberally. So when I reached Omaha and dropped in to see J. J. Ilfss, of Hess & Swohoda, he easily de- tected the weak spot in my armor and neatly extracted a promise from me of a further con- tribution to the fund on the part of my firm. Therefore, you will find encloBcd check of my firm for $100 as an additional contribution to the publicity campaign. Our slogan is, undoubtedly, forcing its way rapidly into the public mind. It is not a mere jumble of words, as most other trade slogans are; it is straight to the point with its message and per- mits of no misunderstanding. Hardly a day passes that there is not received at the secretary's oflSce some proof of its reception by the public. Of late the cartoonists on the big newspapers seem to have taken it up and we receive many clippings showing its use. All this is publicity and its great value is fully recognized. Some time ago we were advised that a proper appraisement of our slogan 's value would be $1,000,000, but it is safe to say now that it is worth to oi a great deal more. It should be remembered that this great asset would speedily fade away if the slogan were allowed to fall into disuse. Only by using it continually can we maintain its value and to insure this we must have the money to carry along our campaign, Ca You Afford It? All things considered, it is little we [Continued on page 77.] The Rorists^ Review Mabch 11, 1920 The florists whose cards appear on the pases oarrytnc this head, are prepared to fill orders from other florists for local deUvery on the usual basis.

D. 68 The Florists^ Review March 11, 1920 RETAIL STORE MANAGEMENT WHAT THE LEADERS IN THE TRADE ARE DOING EABLY STABT FOR EASTER. Long beforehand the florist makes his preparation to handle Easter busi- ness when the rush comes. But does he make sufficient attempt to book orders before the few heavy days of Easter buying? Inducing the public to make an early start for Easter is as important a way of lightening the burden when the day at last arrives as are the ar- rangements which the florist makes in his store to handle the great number of orders. While the latter, however, is a matter of course, the former is not gen- erally done. Some florists have made it a practice each year to advertise for Easter orders two or three weeks before that day and have booked many orders from persons who recognize the wisdom of doing their shopping early. The retailer can make quotations on plants, so as to present a definite oflier to the purchaser. Particular effort to get telegraph de- livery orders beforehand meets with good response. The results obtained are well worth the work to get them. The florist is enabled often to transmit his orders by mail, thus avoiding the errors so frequent in telegrams relayed at a rush time. And persons who send flowers to parents at the old home or to other relatives or to friends at Easter time desire infallible service. The florist also has more time to explain the nature of telegraph service to patrons who have not used it before if they make their inquiries before the final period of rush and hurry. This feature of the Easter holiday sales is worth pushing strongly this season. Each succeeding holiday in the last two years has seen a larger and larger proportion of wire orders. The number for this Easter is expected to be larger than ever. The retailer who makes frequent changes of window displays will find it profitable to use a telegraph idea two weeks before Easter, changing to one of local nature as the holiday ap- proaches perhaps. Other suggestions will present themselves to individual florists. The holiday sales will reach a big total. By getting an early start you may develop them as fully as pos- sible with less strain and hurry. ARE YOUR PATRONS IRISH? Among the holidays that make sales for the florist, St. Patrick's day does not rank among the highest. It is, how- ever, the occasion of considerable busi- ness, and the retailer is able to add to next week 's total by making some effort for that day. Various opinions are held as to the artistic value of green-dyed flowers in the florist 's shop. Aside from that item, there are the opportunities that shamrock plants and the various fanciful containers for them afford. These are not the only plants that can be sold for this day. Others may be decorated with green so as to be readily salable to Hibernian celebrants. On this occasion, as on others, the florist reaps according as he sows. A window display to attract the passers' eyes and preparations beforehand to care for the orders are bound to result in increased sales March 17. At the present time, when flowers are abund- ant, any occasion for the florist to push sales should be welcomed and utilized. ->• ■ ■ ■"■■"■'1 ■ Mm- m i|i 'fR'-^ ^ .^r ^^ ^jm.^ \ i The retailer who makes extra effort, not only at the big holidays, but also as often as opportunity seems to offer in between, runs up a big yearly total. The small increases all along the line make an exceedingly respectable aggregate. St. Patrick's day offers the chance to get a little extra. A MATTER OF ARRANOEBCENT. To display all there is to be displayed, to show all to good advantage, and yet to avoid an appearance of crowding too much into small space, is a problem which confronts many a florist. Many solve it after much trial and tribula- tion, but not all. One firm which has done so is the American Flower Shop, at Birmingham, Ala., which, one would say after a study of the illustration on this page, had plenty on display. Still there is an air of spaciousness about the store which gives comfort to vis- iting purchasers of flowers. The Ameri- can Flower Shop has solved other prob- lems of the trade and is doing an ex- cellent business this season. PIN HEADS TO MATCH B0X7QUET. The society dame and damsel long since demanded shoe uppers and spats to match their suits and dresses; now they go further and must have bou- quet pins the heads of which match the colors of the flowers. A violet corsage bouquet must be pinned with a violet- headed pin, etc. Up-to-the-minute florists have yielded to the vogue; possibly they have en- couraged it. The fad may give them a slight edge on competitors seeking the ultra-fashionable trade. The corsage pins have glass heads, made colorless originally and dipped into enamel of any color desired. The enamel is baked on. The pins cost little and the florist can furnish one with each bouquet without wrecking his profit on the flowers. RHYMES THAT REINFORCE. Interior View of Store of the American Flower Sbopt at Birmingham, Ala. GreetlngB to Go with Gifts. The designer of floral decorations and pieces, as well as the man who makei them up, may think of his work as the chief art of the trade. But there are important allied arts, which seldom re- ceive due attention or employment. Of these, the art of the poet, though per- haps least often found, is most easily used. As W. J. Olds, of Union City, Pa., remarks, "In encouraging our friend* to 'Say It with Flowers,' it may he helpful occasionally to supply along with the flowers some little interpreta- tion of their possible message. Witb some adaptation of the message to the flower and the occasion, the value a,ni MabCU 11, 1920 The Florists^ Review 69 n* florists wbo«* eax&B avpMur on the paces eamrlnc tlile bead* are prepared to lUl orders ..__ from otberflorlsts tor local dMiverr on tlie oanal basts. appreciation of the gift may oftentimes bo greatly enhanced." Following out this idea, Mr. Olds has written and copyrighted several short poems, some called forth by special oc- casions and others suitable for a va- riety of uses. In one case, a Sunday school class wished to send a number of valentines to its sick members; a pot ot' daffodils, with appropriate verses en- tilled, "The Message of the Daffodils," proved a quite adequate valentine. Another greeting in rhyme was sent with a pot of primroses at Christmas time to each member of a Bible class. Somewhat more timely just at present is the following welcome to spring: THE OALIj of the DAFFODIL.S. (Copyrighted by W. J. Olds.) Here's a little pot of gold We're sending you. Telling that the winter cold Will soon be through. Daffies, yellow as the sun. Speak of brighter days to come; Jack Frost's reign will soon be done. Who will rue? When the earth Is bare and brown. Like a stone, And all nature wears a frown, Joy has flown; Ah! How welcome! From the mold, Daffy, with her green and gold. Comes, like fairy queen of old, With her crown- She, with scepter In her hand. Calls to spring; Gently waves her magic wand. Bluebirds sing. So shall care and pain depart, Loose their shackles from the heart, Hope's sweet flowers In rerdure start. Swift of wing. Sorrow's sway will soon be o'er. With its pain; Grief will bind onr hearts no more With his chain. As the winter yields to spring And the chrysalis finds wing. So with Joy our hearts shall sing Yet again. ST. LOUIS. MO. The Market. Last week the wholesale cut flower market favored the retailer almost daily, as stock of any seasonable sort was in good supply and prices on big lots were lower than in the previous week. The slump is, of course, charged to the Ticnten season and the retailers say that there is little activity in work for social affairs, but transient trade with the downtown florists has been brisk and plenty of funeral work has helped to keep them quite busy. Shipping trade in the wholesale dis- trict has been excellent all through this season and many orders have already l>een booked for Easter. Roses have been in good supply aiid of the best quality. Some of the local growers have sent in extra select stock in Premier, Bussell, Ophelia, Milady, Columbia and Killamey. Carnations, too, are in adequate supply for all de- mands, with prices ranging from $4 to $8 per hundred and running somewhat lower for lots of 1,000 to 5,000. Sweet peas are fast coming into their own and great quantities are seen daily lit the wholesale markets; the long fancy ones hold their own in price, but shorts are sold cheap in lots. Violets are not going out so fast as the wholesaler "^onld like them to go and the market ^ad plenty of excellent stock on sale every day. NOTHING TO SELL- JUST A JUGGLER PENN, of Boston, says he "has nothing to sell." Still you and I know his sales are in the hundred thousands. BROWN, of Gasser's, Cleveland, says: "We have nothing to sell." Still, on Saturdays, it's no uncom- mon thing for them to sell a thousand or fifteen hun- dred of their special boxes. DANKER, of Albany, says he " has nothing to sell." But he has a wonderful little shop on Maiden Lane that's always as busy as a bee hive. What, then, are these bank-roll fellers trying to do — kid us ? Or are they sleight of hand artists, who take rabbits out of silk hats, or pick twenty-dollar gold pieces from the end of folks* noses ? No, they are neither or nor. Then, what are tbejr 7 And what do they mean by such talk? 1 would consider it a real favor if you will write me your opinion. You can depend on my treating it in strictest confidence. Kindly address it to me, marked persoDsl. Otherwise Jimmy the Hibernian Hybrid might get it. New York's Favorite Flower Shop Fifth Avenue at S8th Street In bulbous stock, the market has been loaded up all the week with a good sup- ply of tulips, Paper Whites, jonquils, freesias and Von Sions. Extra good valley is quoted at $8 per hundred and cattleyas sell at $6 per dozen. There is little change in the supply of greens, as the market had an excellent supply of asparagus, smilax, adiantum and galax. Flat ferns are exceedingly scarce and for a few days during the latter part of last week none were to be had at any of the wholesale markets. Comity Growers' Meeting.

This year's outdoor production will be double that of last year. The Olivette greenhouses of the C.

The Rosery Garden Shop ''^sM'^ MILWAUKEE, WIS. The Market. A greater abundance of stock was seen on the market last week than at any other time this year. The demand has been good and the heavy cuts of sweet peas and spring flowers have kept the market filled up, affecting prices in all lines. The large supply of plants and bulbous stock in boxes and pans has cut in on the flower sales to a considerable extent. Prices are maintained fairly well in pro- portion to the stock on the market and are above the low levels of former years. The public is being advised through publicity of the increased supply and the regular customers are seen more often in the stores. The window dis- plays are unusually attractive in all the establishments and cannot but tempt prospective buyers. Club Meeting. The club meeting was held Thursday evening, March 4.

Locker & Sons are sending in some fine sweet peas in a large variety of colors. E. Haasch has an exceptionally good lot of fine cinerarias ready for the mar- ket now. The Holton & Hunkel Co. and the C. C. Pollworth Co. are supplying most of the bulbous stock in pots and boxes to the trade. Both of these firms have a good supply of lilies, hydrangeas and rose plants in good shape for Easter. C. C. Pollworth has gone to New York to attend the international flower show and, incidentally, a meeting of the na- tional publicity committee. Walter Zimmermann 's car is in the shop and he is now walking. BALTIMORE, MD. The Market. For the week commencing March 1, the market was in better condition than it has been all winter. Stock of all kinds was to be had in any quantity desired. There were several reasons responsible for this; the supply has in- creased, the death rate in the city has dropped back to about normal and the Lenten season would seem to be more strictly observed than in former years. There is not the same amount of flowers being used for entertainment purposes as in former years. The demand has slackened up considerably and this, with the increased supply, makes it possible to get what is wanted and get it when it is wanted. One point about the market that is worthy of note is the improved quality of stock.

Member Florists' Telegrraph Delivery Assoclatloo look as though they were grown for show purposes. Carnations are the finest ever seen in this market and the recent bright weather has brought a large supply. Sweet peas are in big supply and many of the orchid-flowering varieties are much like their namesake. Violets were so plentiful last week that some found their way into the hands of the street men. What has been the larg- est factor in relieving the market, how- ever, has been the influx of bulbous stock. This is now arriving in fine qual- ity and good supply. Easter lilies are to be had in fair quantities. If condi- tions remain as at present, there should be a fair supply of cut stock for Easter. Various Notes. Herman Cook, of John Cook's, last week stated that they were as busy this year as they had ever been during Lent, but their work had been different from that of previous years, being princi- pally funeral work and benches and boxes for hospitals. He said that ell work for entertainments had dropped off noticeably. Mr. Cook was laid np for two weeks with tbe flu.

Although stocks are more plentiful, there are no changes in prices and it looks as if there would be stiff prices for Easter. Lilies for Easter will cost the retailer from 20 to 2.5 cents a bloom, so that there will be no cheap sales of lilies this Easter. Roses and other flowers usually plentiful as spring comes, such as daffodils, violets and tulips, are shown in profusion in the florists' windows. Proposed Botanical Garden. Th,e most important recent happening of interest to florists was the meeting in connection with the establishment of a botanical garden in Toronto.

The market is quiet and practically ill! varieties of cut flovFers and plants have dropped back to normal prices. Roses and carnations are more plentiful, while the wholesale stores are glutted with all kinds of bulbous stock, which, under normal conditions, should have arrived earlier in the season. Various Notes. Mr. and Mrs. J. Wilkinson P^lliott have gone to Atlantic City for a sev- eral weeks' sojourn at the Hotel Lelande. Mr. Elliott is taking advan- tage of this occasion to make up his new bulb catalogue. The catalogue will be ready for distribution about April 15. The trip was delayed for a short time by the illness of the two daughters, who are now well again. Mrs. E. A. Williams is having a series of most attractive window displays, ar- ranged to harmonize with the Lenten season. Thursday, March 4, the place of honor was occupied with large bowls of assorted early spring flowers, the ensemble being distinctive for graceful grouping and exquisite color blending. An effective background was formed by tall vases and jars of imported and Fulper pottery filled with cat-tails, Park Floral Co. B E. GnxM, Pres E. p. Nsnujr.

The Market. Stock is plentiful to the point of a surplus and prices are much lower. De- mand is stronger and more steady. As usual in Lent, there are no big enter- tainments that call for decorations, but there are a few small dinners and lunch- eons each week and the regular buying of flowers has strengthened business to a great extent. Various Notes. L. B. Bohannon, of Chicago, was in the city last week. All the growers report the Easter lily crop in fine condition and a good supply of blooms. Prices will be higher than in former years. The W. L. Rock Flower Co. had an attractive window of spring plants and baskets, Thursday and Friday, March 4 and 5, with price cards prominently displayed. Other days they had cut flowers and different stock with prices displayed. Mr. Carter said it was in the nature of an educational campaign to make the public understand that flowers were cheaper than they had been and to encourage buying. Prospective buyers would have an idea of what they could obtain for a certain amount be- fore they entered the store. Among the recent visitors in the city were Tucker Smith and P. A. Manson, of Pleasant Hill, Mo., and Roy Hall, of the Kirkwood Floral Co., Des Moines, la. Two of the department stores had sales of carnations, Saturday, March 6. The George B. Peek Dry Goods Co. sold them for 69 cents per dozen and the Jones store for 50 cents per dozen. They were all home-grown stock. E. A. Humfeld is recovering from the flu and has been at the store a part of two days after a week at home. Like the man who said that falling a long distance wasn't anything, but hitting the ground was what hurt, Mr. Humfeld says having the flu is nothing, but get- ting strong after it is what counts. Instead of objecting to department store flower sales, E. A. Hun^eld be- lieves they are a good thing for florists, because they direct attention to tbo HANGING BASKET Hand made, wire bound, enameled green, substantial. doz. 100 8-inch $1.66 $14.50 10-iBch 1.96 16.40 12-inch 2.75 19.80 14-inch 3.30 26.20 16-inch 4.15 36.20 18-inch 6.60 44.00 Fancy Green Sheet Moss Large Sack, $2.00 Pittsburgh Cut Flower Co. 116-118 ScTcath St, PITTSBURGH, PA. buying of flowers and to the fact that prices are such that almost everyone can afford to buy. Those who buy a dozen carnations or a bunch of violets at these sales will be more apt to pat- ronize a florist oft^n in the future if they find flowers within their means. The sale may be the means of forming a habit and they will tell their friends and thus be unconscious advertisers themselves, Mr. Humfeld thinks. The Muehlebach Flower Shop had some fancy Premier roses last week and some lilac plants that attracted atten- tion. The trade in novelties and art material is increasing steadily. The furious wind Wednesday night, March 3, caused J. G. Eggleston to stay up all night and watch his houses, as his range is located on a high point in Rosedale. One of his carnation houses bent slightly at one end, but he braced it with iron pipes so that it held. Samuel Murray's store is closed tight on Sunday, no one being on duty at any time through the day. There is a lato delivery Saturday night, when all orders are taken care of for Sunday, and Mr. Murray says he has not had a single complaint since putting the new plan in operation. He has bought an- other truck, giving him two large dc- livery cars of his own. He rents sorie smaller cars for delivery purposes t'.e year around. Mr. Murray says Febru- ary was the best month in the more tbin thirty years he has been in business- March thus far has been good, too. Mrs. E. H. Hedges had a brisk bu ■ ness all week and, like the other flori^^'^i enjoyed turning out orders when there was enough stock to work with. W. E. Tredup has returned from a trip through Kansas. He found tie trade preparing for a heavy spn'g business and everybody feeling sat s- fied with the winter's returns. After a five weeks' siege of influen/a, A. Newell is well again and is atten'l- ing to business almost the entire time every day.

This house will be used for roses and most of the stock has been shipped. The daily cut of sweet peas at the S. Bryson Ayres greenhouses is about l-5,000. B.9 is letting the finest varie- ties go to seed. His reputation for sweet peas has become sd firmly established that he is having large demands for seeds from all parts of the country. Since the neighborhood around Thirty- first street and Troost avenue has be- tome such a good business center, the merchants there have formed a south side improvement association. The Humfeld-Orear Floral Co. and J. Austin lire members of the association. Sunday closing is no new feature for the Humfeld-Orear Floral Co. The store '■■as never been open on Sunday. Mr. yrear says that instead of losing busi- ''<'ss, he has always gained by this rule. Tlie Pinehurst Floral Co. has been y uding in some good red roses the last few days and will soon have a good '"■op of these. The company is also •"""^^"•Jing in some choice calla lilies.

William Foith is wholesaling a large stock of potted cinerarias and also sell- ing some at retail. He considers him- self especially fortunate in disposing of one of the heaviest crops of carnations he ever had before prices dropped. He has more coming on, but not half the supply that he had. He also has a large number of snapdragons and sweet peas. J. E. K. SALT IiAKB CITY, UTAH. The Market. Bad weather last week held the cut stock back, but the flu has almost en- tirely disappeared and the demand for funeral flowers has been light. The supply of roses is still short of the de- mand and prices still hold up. Carna- tions and sweet peas are more plentiful and are moving well, carnations selling from $5 to $8 per hundred and sweet peas at $2 per hundred. Daffodils and tulips are at their best, the stock being extra good. Freesias are still arriving in large amounts, but the stock is not so good as it has been. Various Notes. Charles Edgar and wife, who have been traveling for the McCallum Co., Pittsburgh, Pa., were in the city three or four days last week. Mr. Edgar has visited most of the growers in the inter- mountain country and says that Easter stock everywhere is looking fine. David Brown, manager of the Quality Floral Shop, Inc., at Prove, Utah, vis- ited the trade last week. G. J. £.

A few matters of business were taken up and it was decided to invite the ladies to the next meeting. This meet- ing was an open one and a large num- ber of employees were present. It is the desire of the ofl&cers of this associa- tion that everyone in the trade become affiliated with it and that, as a conse- quence, better meetings will be held. Various Notes. The next meeting of the Minnesota State Florists' Association will be held at the Merriam Park Greenhouses, Mer- riam park, Thursday evening, March 18. An excellent program has been prepared and anyone interested will find it worth while to attend this meeting. The Twin City Association of Land- scape Gardeners and Nurserymen held its monthly meeting March 10 at the Minneapolis Athletic Club. Excellent catalogues have recently been issued by the Rose Hill Nurseries, Northrup, King & Co., W. H. Bofferding & Co., Emma V.

"Orchids are a rarity, and would be so in San Francisco were they not orought into the city every morning by motor trucks," was the opening of a lengthy illustrated article in the San Francisco Examiner, Sunday, February 29, telling of the orchid houses of Ferrari Bros., near Potrero. It went on to say: "Amil, Peter and Victor Ferrari, of San Francisco, are, and have been for over thirty years, the growers, propagators and fanciers of species dis- covered by horticulturists who have gone to lands less known than any essayed be- fore. They are the breeders of orchids in wide, glass-hidden corrals near Potrero. "Acres are concealed by whitewashed panes, and under them, at a temperature of 90 degrees, a myriad of exotic plants are languishing in special comfort. " 'One thousand ot these, of my choic- est orchids, were ordered for the funeral of Charles Penoyer, in Burlingame last week,' said Victor Ferrari, 'Those two White trucks standing against the green- house were never so busy before. From morning to night on the day before de- livery we kept them burning the roads betw.een here and the city shop of Po- desta & Baldocchi, where they were re- layed in floral pieces to the bier of the dead lumber king.' " 'But,' I interrupted, 'orchids are worth $1.50 apiece, are they not? ' " 'Some are worth $40 apiece,' this bland florist answered. 'But then, lum- ber kings are rich, and they have rich friends,' he added quietly. 'Besides, there is no bloom that grows better fitted to the purpose of funerals than the or- chid.' "Coming out of the crystal crypts wherein these queens abided, we passed another White S^^-ton truck, from which several Italians were unloading large boxes of Nico-fume liquid, a nicotine solution for florists and as yet unlimited in supply by the anti-tobacconists. " 'We call it Black-forty,' explained Victor Ferrari, 'which means a forty per ?ent strength of pure nicotine. It is used to kill aphis bugs; it is a power- ful insecticide, and where it goes is no place for jitneys. You see,' he added, caressing the hood of his White, 'we need speed in our deliveries, and bulk and power. Five trucks are used in this business; three for hauling manure and two for hauling flowers. The two flower trucks are Whites.' '' LOS ANGELES, CAL. The Market. While the retailers report that busi- ness is keeping up well, there has been a distinct fallins: off in the shipping. One reason for tliis is, doubtless, the My ad in The Review (it was 2-inches single column and ran 4 weeks - Ed.) has brought all the business I can attend to for some time, but you may be sure you will hear from me again. — H.

There was no shortage in roses last week, the supply being just about enough to go around. Prospects for Easter are for a good crop and the qual- ity should be excellent. Dutch and Spanish irises make a fine show and bring good prices. Daffodils are more plentiful and have dropped a little, but Dutch hyacinths keep up in price. All kinds of small spring flowers continue scarce. Orchids are a little more plentiful and some fine blooms of Cattleya Schroederse have appeared. Valley is arriving in small lots of good quality. Cecile Brunner is scarce and sweet peas are more or less damaged by the rains. At the end of last week the weather had greatly improved and the supply of stock is expected to increase greatly. Various Notes. Fred Dostal has purchased the busi- ness of Welters' Flower Shop from J. W. Welters and will run it as the Dos- tal-Wolters Flower Shop. Mr. Wolters started in the business about thirteen years ago on Fourth street, over the Angelus hotel, and has always com- manded a good share of high-class trade.

A new delivery car is being put in service by Wolfskills' & Morris Gold- enson. Albert Goldenson says business is keeping up well. Frank Lichtenberg, just returned from a trip to San Francisco, speaks highly of the class of roses and other stock being handled by the northern men. The Alexandria Florist reports fine business. George Eischen and Andrew Bruce are both on Mr. Baron's force now. O. C. Saake is turning out some fine funeral work. E. Vogel, of Chicago, with his wife and small son, arrived in the city last week. Mr. Vogel says that he intends to go into business in this city. This is his second visit. A scarcity of daffodils and hyacinths at the store of George J.

Mr. Brazee suffered severely from this trou- ble last year during the daffodil season. H. E. Eichards. SAN FRANCISCO, CAL. The Market. Flowers of all varieties are becoming more plentiful and last week found the market in good condition. Eoses are cheaper, although the demand is keep- ing the price up in good shape. Most of the nurseries on the peninsula and across the bay are cutting the new rose crop and some fine blooms are arriving in the market. Eussell, Ophelia and Columbia are in the majority, although a few white roses are also being cut, the first in any quantity this year. Sweet peas are abundant for this season of the year and retailers report a good sale of them. No outdoor-grown peas are in yet, except in small quanti- ties where one or two small growers send in a limited quantity. The supply of daffodils is still a little short, but the new crop is expected soon.

The windows of this shop are always attractive, but for the last few weeks have been par- ticularly beautiful with spring flowers and cut pansies. Podesta & Baldocchi's baskets have attracted much attention recently. The arrangement of spring flowers has been unusually artistic, while their orchid display has been noticeable for its va- riety of blooms. M. M. BEIDGEPORT, CONN. The Market. The cut flower supply is larger than it has been for some time. Among the spring flowers are daffodils, tulips, free- sias. Paper Whites and pansies. There are now enough roses to fill all orders and the carnation supply has also in- creased. Fine snapdragons are to be had. Sweet peas, callas and Easter lilies are all in abundant supply. Among the other flowers that are being dis- played are mignonette, violets, calen- dulas, Eoman hyacinths and forsythias. Not only is there an increased supply, but, because social activities have been fewer in number in Lent, there have been fewer demands for flowers for decorations, etc., and the prices have fallen to some extent. They are now lower than they have been since before Christmas, Some of the local florists are only asking $2 per dozen for carna- tions and from $5 to $7 per dozen for roses. Some of the florists believe that the people who refused to pay the high rates for cut flowers and took plants in preference, because they believed the plants would make a better showing for the amount they wished to spend, will now buy more cut flowers. There is a pleasing variety of potted plants to be had. Among them are cinerarias, daffodils, tulips, begonias, hyacinths and cyclamens. With the exception of funeral work, for which there has been a big demand, owing to the large number of deaths which occurred during the influenza epidemic, business has been quiet during the last few weeks. We had a severe snow storm March 6, which completely blocked trafiic. All business was halted, as no customers were out on such a stormy day. It was unfortunate that the storm should have occurred on Sat- urday, as it is one of the biggest days in the week. Various Notes. The Arcade Flower Shop furnished the flowers for a wedding recently. It reports that there has been a big de- mand for funeral designs and also for cut flowers for the sick. Robert Hawkins has been rushed with funeral work. He says that flowers are cheaper than they have been for some time and much more plentiful. James Horan & Son had a number of large pieces for the funeral of William B. Wheeler. As Mr. Wheeler was a prominent man, the floral tributes were large and numerous. Stephen Horan is spending a two weeks' vacation with a party of friends in the south. He is at present in Pinehurst, N. C. John Beck & Son report that they will have an abundant supply of Easter lilies for their Easter trade. Their bulbous stock is coming along nicely. They made a pall of violets for the Wheeler funeral which covered the en- tire casket. I. L. B.

President, B. C. Dungan, Philadelphia, Pa.; •ecretary-treaaurer, C. B. Kendel, Cleveland, O. Leonard Vaughan was 40 March 8. The acreage for peas and beans in 1920 has cost more than ever before. What became of all the castor beans from those 100,000 government acres? Lo"W prices for seeds unquestionably mean a reduction in acreage and then a small crop year means aviating values. Heavy rains have fallen in southern California. In the vicinity of Los Angeles damage was done to many crops. News of the death of F. W. Brugger- hof, head of J. M. Thorburn & Co., New York, appears in this week's obituary column. J. Keur, of C. Keur & Sons, Hillegom, Holland, is making his twenty-first busi- ness tour to the United States, but it is his first trip here since 1914. The J. W. Jung Seed Co., at Eandolph, Wis., has purchased a S-story building, 50x100 feet, with basement, and will com- Eletely remodel it, installing all the latest ibor-saving devices. It is expected to be ready for occupancy about May 1. It is proving no small task to fill the mail orders this season. The class of help ordinarily employed for this work, in the cities at least, is more scarce than at any previous time and neither punctuality nor industry is so general as the demand for high wages. The wave of wintry weather which passed across the country from west to east in the first week of March cut down the flow of mail orders, which was begin- ning to assume flood proportions. It gave everyone a generally needed chance to catch up. France has available for export 881,840 pounds of sugar beet seed, according to a French Chambre Syndicale, composed of sugar beet seed growers and formed for the purpose of increasing the production of selected seed. The seal of the associa- tion is placed on every bag of seed re- garded as selected. MEREDITH DOWNS FREE SEEDS. The new secretary of agriculture has won the approval of the seed trade by opposing the congressional distribution of free seeds. On Secretary Meredith's recommendation, the Senate agricultural committee voted March 2 to eliminate from the annual agricultural appropria- tion the $240,000 voted by the House to continue the time-hallowed custom of distributing free seeds to congress- men's constituents. LASOB AFFECTS SEED SALES. Beplies that have been received from inquiries sent by the Bureau of Mar- kets of the Department of Agriculture to a number of representative retail vegetable seed dealers indicate that the quantity of vegetable seed sold to mar- ket gardeners so far this season is equal to or greater than last year. Exceptions are shown in the case of reports from a few industrial centers, principally in the east, where the quantity sold to market gardeners is estimated to be ten Tested Proven Seeds Early View of Oar Trial Grounds Did you ever sow Peacock's Flower Seeds?

HAMPTON CO., 17 Battery Place, New York, N. Y. to thirty per cent less than last year be- cause of the shortage of labor on truck farms. Sales last year, however, were not equal to those of a normal pre-war year and sales this year are reported to be ten to forty-five per cent less than for a pre-war year, with the exception of a few districts in some of the north- western, western and southwestern states. On the whole, the sales to home gar- deners this year seem to be larger than those of last year and of a normal pre- war year, ranging from a five per cent increase in some sections to fifty per cent in others. In some of the northern states little vegetable seed has been sold to date, either to market or home gardeners. This is not to be taken as an indication of a falling off in sales, because nor- mally the majority of sales are made by seedsmen in those states later in the season. There is no uniform increase or de- crease in sales reported for any special kind or kinds of vegetable seed. The decrease in sales to market gardeners, however, is restricted principally to seed of those crops which require the most hand labor in harvesting and pre- paring for market. SALES CONTRACTS. A Lesson in Commercial Law. Every person whose daily business af- fairs involve the formation of contracts in the sale or purchase of goods should have a clear idea of the fundamental rules of law governing such agreements. Stumbling through business negotia- tions without knowledge of one 's legal rights and the legal effect of what is being done and never thinking of the legal phases involved until it is time to hire a lawyer to get out of difficulty, is like avoiding precautions against the flu, supposing that the doctor will be able to keep us from slipping into the grave. A practical lesson in commercial law under this head is afforded in &. deci- sion lately handed down by the Texas Court of Civil Appeals in the case of Knowlan Machine & Supply Co. vs. Dittman & Harrison Co., 216 South- western Reporter, 678. In this case, plaintiff was permitted to recover damages for breach of a con- tract to sell a car of seed g^rain; de- fjnd-'nt failing in an attempt to show that no binding agreement resulted be- cause the contract, which was made by defendant's representative, was not confirmed.

Following the date and address to the buyer, it reads: "We book your order for the goods named below to be shipped February 10, 1918, to Victoria, Tex., via H. & T. C. and Southern Pacific R. E.

If the goods are not accepted on these con- ditions, we are to have immediate no- tice. "Our responsibility ceases when we deliver goods to carrier in proper ship- ping condition. [This is an important provision, especially where goods are shipped under an order bill of lading, since it precludes any reasonable ground for controversy as to whether the ship- ping seller is liable, as to the buyer, for any loss or damage to the goods in transit.] Complaints of any kind must be made immediately for shortage or damage, and must be accompanied by railroad expense biU bearing proper no- tations.

' ' No agreement recognized which is not plainly stipulated herein." Signature by each party appears at the end of the instrument. Agent Has Authority. In this case the contract was signed on the part of the defendant seed house by C. F. Gribble and the position taken by defendant is indicated in the follow- ing excerpt from the opinion of the Texas Court of Civil Appeals: "The first assignment is to the effect that the court erred in holding that C. F. Gribble had authority as agent to enter into a binding contract for the Bale of the grain at the prices named to be delivered in February, 1918; and the second, was that the date of delivery was so remote as to put plaintiff on notice that it had to be subject to con- firmation and approval; and fifth, that the contract was so unusual and out of the ordinary as to put plaintiff upon notice and charge it with such informa- tion as a person of ordinary prudence and care would have gained by making inquiry as to authority of the agent; eighth, in holding there was no custom of the trade requiring sales of grain and seed by traveling salesmen or brokers to be accepted and confirmed before be- coming a binding contract." The court proceeds to review the evi- dence in the case, from which an infer- ence is drawn that defendant company had authorized its agent to make con- tracts of this kind, despite the fact that on receipt of the order at the de- fendant's office a letter was sent to plaintiff stating that defendant could not confirm. Another point attempted to be made by the attorneys for the defendant was that, even if a binding contract had been made through defendant's agent, it was superseded by subspnuent neco- Our Offices and Warehouses at Llsse, Holland 30; YEARS SUPPLYING THE BEST TRADE N AMERICA BULBS THE SAME OLD FIRM AT THE SAME OLD STAND M.

"It is clear that there was no new contract made or any merger of the originaJ' by one of any later date. De- fendant refused to confirm the contract of December 3, 1917, in all particulars, but attempted to make a change there- in by substituting a new price for oats and in the subsequent correspondence change the price of other articles. Plain- tiff never accepted or agreed to the change of price of any article in the original order except upon condition. So it is clear that the minds of the par- ties never met on a new contract and the result of the case must depend upon the validity of the original order of December 3. It is shown that the order was received in the due course of busi- ness dealings. The act of C. F. Gribble, who signed its name to the order, was not repudiated; it did not then deny his agency or contend that he was not authorized to make binding contracts, or claim that such had to be submitted to it for confirmation. It placed their refusal to confirm upon the ground that it might not get hold of Surecropper corn and would have to charge 98 cents per bushel for the oats, made no men- tion of the Bed Top or Amber Cane and desired to know 'if you will want us to book on that basis.' "The defendant contends that there was never any valid contract at all, be- cause Gribble was not empowered or authorized to make such contracts, as he was making sales under limited au- thority, which required him to report all offers for confirmation, and his acts were never confirmed and ratified. The court has found from the evidence, in connection with the letters, there was a contract and that Gribble was acting within the scope of his authority in the capacity of a sales agent in negotiating and making valid sales as described. • • • If Gribble was not its agent, defendant should have promptly repu- Mention The Review when you write.

A few of the must popular varieties of shrubs also are listed. H, J, Weber & Sons Nursery Co., Nursery, Mo. — Two attractive catalogues, which supple- ment each other. The larger one, entitled "Weber's Guide," consists of thirty-two good- •ized pages; it contains descriptions and illus- trations, but no prices. The smaller book is a condensed price list. The intention is to issue the price lists semiannually, but the appearance of the next edition of the "Guide" may be de- layed indefinitely, "unless conditions become more normal than at present." Patrons are ad- vised by the company, therefore, to "retain the 'Guide' for future reference." Greenhouse plants as well as nursery stock are offered. F. K. Frouse Co., Brampton, Ont. — "Baster Florists' iSpecials," an illustrated folder which serves as the company's "first and introductory catalogue." It offers baskets, artificial flowers, cycas, ruscus, magnolia leaves and other sup plies. "Our next catalogue," says Mr. Prouse, "will be a far more ambitious and detailed list." C. Keur & Sons, New York, N. Y., and Hille- gom, Holland. — A 20-page wholesale catalogue of bulbs. Besides the Holland-grown bulbs, the stock listed comprises assortments from France and Guernsey, for early forcing. At the end are crocus and lily bulbs and lily of the valley pips. Isaac F, Tillinghast, Santa Rosa, Cal. — "New Creations in Fruits, Vegetables, Grains and Flow- ers," an illustrated, 32-page catalogue, well ar- ranged and unusually readable. Mr. Tilling- hast, apparently, does not handle general, all- incluslre stocks of seeds and plants, but rather is a dealer In specialties, those he considers the best available from all sources. One of the most prominent of these specialties Is "Cory's Thomless Mammoth Blackberry, an entirely new variety, of mammoth size and delicious flavor, the canes of wblcb are as free from thorns as a grapevine." William H. Moon Co., MorrisviUe, Pa.— "On Beautifying the Home Grounds." This is not really a catalogue, as it neither quotes prices nor enumerates varieties. It is a well designed 16-page landscape book, printed on enameled paper and bound in a strong and tasteful blue- gray cover. It is intended to stimulate the de- mand for nurserymen's products. It contains persuasive arguments and equally persuasive pictures — some of them the before-and-after sort of pictures, showing first the treeless and shrub- less grounds and then the same grounds after the transformation achieved by the nurserymen. Sohultx's Seed Store, Washington, D. C. — "Schultz's Seed Annual," illustrated, flfty-six pages, in a handsome, colored cover of the offset type. The back cover bears a picture of a part of the White House grounds, with the inscrip- tion, "One of the many public grounds about Washington where Schultz's White House lawn grass seeds have been sown." Besides the seeds, the book offers bulbs, roots, plants and general supplies, including wire fences and large assort- ments of implements, from plows and harrows down to the smallest hand-tools. Young, healthy, 2-year-old stock — the best for forcing; full of vitality. l^in. up l^-l^jin.

Lee McDonough has sold bis interest in the old Douglas Nursery, at Waukegan, 111., to David Becher, of Chicago. Ebest H. Gold has started a nursery at Holland, Mich., devoting his efforts chiefly to the propagation of fruit trees. The government's propaganda for home planting of fruit trees is welcome to nurserymen, though not so much needed this season as in some others. Charles C. Nash, the Three Elvers nurseryman, is devoting the first part of March to putting up cuttings in the fa- mous grape belt surroun£ng Lawton, Mich. INSPECTION IN BHODE ISLAND. In view of the stringent regulations in connection with interstate commerce •of certain trees, shrubs and other nurs- ery stock, together with the fact that the Kliode Island Nurserymen 's Associa- tion at its recent annual meeting, at Providence, voted to call upon the gen- eral assembly of that state for financial assistance, the annual report of the state board of agriculture presented to the legislature a few days ago is of more than ordinary interest and importance. Forty-six nurseries were examined during the year and thirty-nine were found to be free from injurious insects or plant diseases of any kind and were given certificates permitting the sale of nursery stock. The entomological de- partment also gave demonstrations for combating insects and sprayed 10,000 trees for scale insects and for the cod- ling moth, in addition to scouting the state line for the corn borer. W. H. M, NTJRSEEY STOCKS IN FEANCE. In the columns of a British trade pub- lication a French grower gives the fol- lowing summary of nursery stocks in France for this season: "The nursery trade has been particu- larly brisk this season. The lifting of trees and stocks began in October with quite dry weather, which was unfavor- able and the cause of considerable delay. Afterwards we had a severe frost at the beginning of November, which still further complicated matters. But since this date the nurserymen enjoyed mild weather and have had no stop until now. "The fruit stocks are nearly all sold out. Apple, pear, plum seedlings and cherry were exhausted at the beginning of the season and numerous orders have been refused. The quantities which have been delivered do not exceed five per cent of the demand. "It may be possible actually to find small quantities of Paradise, because they are propagated from mother plants, and the growers were not sufficiently sure of their rooting at the beginning of the season. This is the reason why they did not at that time make engage- ments for their whole lot. Hence the reason that small lots are still being sup- plied now. "Eose stocks have been considerably short, principally Eosa canina and laxa; not ten per cent of the demand has been supplied. If some small lots are still on offer it is for the reason indicated for the English Paradise; also multiflora polyantha seedlings, -which were a littl/ more abundant than anticipated, bur they will be planted in Prance, where it has been recognized to be the best stock for dwarf polyanthas, climbing Wichuraianas, also for working the H. T. 's, H. P.'s, teas, etc., for forcing and for pot work. Its root system is good, anil when planted or potted it breaks rapidly. In the United States they em- ploy it to replace Manetti in many cases. "The young stocks of shrubs, seed- lings, grafts and rooted cuttings sell quickly. Many sorts are missing, owing to the lack of propagation during the war. They will continue to be scarce for several years. Many varieties have disappeared, entirely. "Young forest trees have been in great demand. All the principal sorts are exhausted.

PRODUCmON AND PRICES. In his address at Boston, C. E. Burr, retiring president of the New England Nurserymen 's Association, emphasized the necessity of maintaining the present prosperity of the trade by attention to the matters of production and prices. He stated: "Production is a matter that we, as nurserymen, ought not to lose sight of. Eight now we are in a prosperous way, more so than we have been in the last five years. We ought now to be where we can pay our bills promptly when they are due. In spite of the high cost of labor, we are doing a good business and we are getting a fair price for our stock — perhaps not as much as items in other lines, for the reason we haven 't had nerve enough to ask it, but I be- lieve that now is the time we ought to get out our pencil and go to figuring, rigure on a basis of profit. Figure on a basis where we can pay our employees decent wages. Figure that you are go- ing to continue to work on a business basis, and do not go into the wholesale business of overplanting in the next two or three years. "Berberis Thunbergii is in good de- mand today. It probably will bring $120 to $150 per thousand for 18-inch to 24-inch at wholesale and on that price there is a little margin. Now, if we, in the next year or two, bring it back to 5 or 6 cents, who under the heavens can get a living on it at that price f There are many other items that are bringing a fair price today and we should not go ahead and overplant. Let's make this business a mercantile business. Give the customer a fair deal, grow good stock, grade it right and work along on mercantile prin- ciples. "At the ornamental growers' meet- ing in New York the standardization of prices came up, and they are going to do something in order to have a basic price. There is no reason why Tom Jones, in Manchester, N. H., can't get as much for his stock as Tom Smith, in Providence, E. I. We all handle more or less the same stock. The agency man, as a rule, sells throughout the country, with few exceptions, at the same prices, and the agent has no competition. Then why can't the catalogue men, landscape men and dealers in nursery stock get together and have a like price! We shall then have a better standing with the buyers and shall work more harmo- niously with one another." ASPARAGUS SPRENGERI, 2-in.. 3c: 3-in., 7c. Daisies. Marguerites, 2k-in., 4c.

Flowers are plentiful and prices have dropped some, but it is hoped that they will never again be slashed as they once were. Bulbous stock continues to be the most in evidence. Freesias are abundant and sell at $3 to $5 per hundred, colored ones bringing $5. Daffodils, jonquils, tulips and hyacinths are in good supply at $6, $7 and $8 per hundred. Eoses are more plentiful now. These, however, are far from being in abnormal supply. Carnations are available in larger quan- tities and calla lilies sell at $2.50 and $3 per dozen. Sweet peas are in good supply. Ca- lendulas have sold well this winter, hav- ing been of good quality. Orchids, vio- lets, pussy willows, etc., have added variety to the offerings in the various windows. Cinerarias are attractive. Other plants include cyclamens, primroses, be- gonias, ferns and a few azaleas. Pot- ted bulbous stock is in popular favor, jonquils, tulips, daffodils and hyacinths being the leaders. Business has not been quite so active for the last two weeks. Indiana State Association. The March meeting of the Indiana State Florists' Association was held at the Smith & Young Co. commission house, Tuesday, March 2. The meet- ing was unusually well attended and several out-of-town members were pres- ent. President Anders Rasmussen presid- ed. After the routine business the fol- lowing were elected to membership: Thomas Affleck, of Indianapolis; Frank D. McConnell, of Boonville, Ind., and Fred and Norman Hukriede, of Indian- apolis. President Easmussen made a report of the meeting of the S. A. F. board of auditors. Mr. Easmussen was appoint- ed to look after subscriptions in the publicity campaign in this state and said that the drive should be started immediately, as the committee was de- sirous of having twice as much money as it had had previously. A. F. J. Baur gave an interesting account of the American Carnation Society meeting, in Chicago. The next meeting of the F. T. D., to be held in Indianapolis, was the chief discussion of the evening. Irwin Ber- termann read the minutes of the pre- vious meeting, to give the association an idea of what to expect.

The average Rrower of Chrysanthemums must have varieties which are easy to handle and from which he can cut as near 100% of perfect blooms as possible. Hambursr Late Pink has been grown for the last four years, and produces a very hlgrh proportion of jfood flowers. It is not an exhibition variety, but for late pink Is one of the best for commercial purposes. It can be had in bloom the latt«r part of November by taking, an early bud, but some of the flowers will show open centers. By selecting late buds, after October 1, most of the flowers are cut during December, and would advise to select late buds, as the later buds will hardly ever show an open center, and some flowers can be had even in January. Keeping qualities are excellent and where a graceful pink flower is wanted, HambarsT Late Pink cannot be surpassed. Plants ready early in March and all orders will be filled in rotation.

This will be the largest florists' affair that Indianapolis has ever had. Following this discussion, a program committee for the association meetings was ap- pointed. After adjournment, a social hour was enjoyed and refreshments were served by th^ hosts. Various Notes. Baur & Steinkamp have three men off on account of sickness. This firm will have an exhibit at the New York flower show, where they will display Huth Baur, Harvester and Edna carnations. Greene's Flower Shop has an attrac- tive new livery for the chauffeur that is different from others. E. E. T. WASHINGTON, D. 0. The Market. Stock ccntinues to be more plentiful and prices are still on the decline. The streets are full of all kinds of stock. Carnations and sweet peas are most plentiful. Funeral work is still piling up and in several instances a slight scarcity of greens was noticed during the last week. Despite the spell of severe weather last week, business was quite satisfac- tory and little stock was lost by freez- ing. The storm came on with little no- tice, but the growers had kept close watch on the weather reports and most of them were ready to cope with sudden change. Florists' Club Elects. J.

Price reductions are of common oc- currence these days and the strenuous times of the last two months are a mat- ter of history until another year rolls around. Publicity is rapidly being given to the fact that prices are lower now and the general flower-buying pub- lic will soon acquire the old. habit of buying flowers for the home. Roses have dropped fifty per cent on the best grades, but the short-stemmed stock is still quoted at high prices. Carnations are now quoted at $6 per hundred, with inferior grades selling according to quality. Calendulas are better, having longer stems and larger flowers. Princess of Wales violets are fine and are quoted at $1 per hundred. Sweet peas, like everything else, have come down to a level where reasonable prices will sell the vast quantities that are now available. Frecsias and Paper Whites are quoted around $6 per hun- dred and maintain their standard of excellence. Single daffodils are arriv- ing in sufficient quantities to meet all requirements. Tulips of all colors are now available and single Dutch hya- cinths are proving good sellers. Leucothoe foliage was a scarce article last week and the reports from the pickers show that the flu has made such inroads on the helpers that the shippers are unable to get enough hands to fill orders that are piled up. The stock that is arriving is short and of inferior quality. Other greens are arriving in sufficient quantities to meet all needs. In pot plants, cinerarias and Primula obconica are good sellers. With the slowing up of the flu, the falling off of funeral work is percepti- ble. Taken as a whole, the business is rapidly adjusting itself and normal conditions will shortly prevail. Various Notes.

Oould you tell me how large an estab- lishment could be heated with a hori- zontal tubular boiler, about 30 years old, but in good condition! It has stood a pressure of 125 pounds and is sixteen feet long and fifty-eight inches in diam- eter; has forty-eight 4-inch flues and grates 4%x5 feet. It is about 75-horse- power. I want to build the houses sepa- rate, with four feet of glass in the north and south walls, and full glass gables, each house to be 35x100 feet. I should like to have heat of 55 degrees when it is 20 degrees below zero. How many houses of this size could this boiler take care of? L. B. W.— Wyo. As nearly as can be estimated from the data furnished, a house similar to those described will contain about 5,200 square feet of glass or its equivalent and a 75-horsepower boiler will supply radiation for 28,000 square feet of glass to be heated to 55 degrees, when it is 20 degrees below zero, in addition to the usual proportion of mains. From this it will be seen that about five houses can be heated with a 75- horsepower boiler under the conditiona mentioned. While a boiler that is 30 yean old should be looked upon with suspicion, if it is in good condition it may give service for a number of years and can be used with safety for low-pressure heating. TOO FEW FLOW PIPES. I am sending you a blue print of my greenhouses, which shows three houses 20x50 feet, with concrete walls three feet high and thirty-two inches of glass. Each house has a 2i^-inch overhead flow pipe and eight l^^-inch returns upon each side wall, the return coils starting on either side of the door at the end of the house, thus making them nearly sixty feet long. There is about 480 square feet of radiation in each of the houses, in addition to some fifty square feet of radiation supplied by the mains. The heat is hot water and is poor. I should like a heat ot 60 degrees in zero weather, but cannot get more than 30 degreos at night. The plumber put a "booster'' on, which he said would end all the trouble, but I believe it is worse. The pipes have a good fall, as the boiler is three feet down in a pit. The only discrepancy in the blue print is that in- stead of two No. 6 boilers shown in the print, I have a new Burnham boiler. No. 36-5, with a firebox 36x36. The ex- pansion tank is just above the highest point and I am thinking of building a cupola above the roof to raise the tank. Of the eight pipes on the side walls, the bottom two are always cold, but the top two get hot and the 2i^-inch flow is always hot. P. C. L. — Can. It appears that there are two factors which prevent the securing of satisfac- tory results from the heating system. The first is that there is altogether too much radiation attached to each of the 214-inch flow pipes, since each flow not only supplies over 530 square feet of radiation within each of the houses, but there is also thirty or more feet of radia- tion in the mains outside of the green- □ ■DBDaaaaauaaB oBDauaaHaaaa o K-R-0-E-S-C-H-E-L-L □ STEAM UNITS OF SUPERIOR FEATURES a a a a a a a a a 8 g a a a ■ No Tubes ITo Clean, :iNoi IMasonryl • Required^ For Stoam Plants Less Than 100 Horse Power D a o a D a o a o a a a a o Krocachell Water Tube Steam Boiler :KR0ESCHELL High Pressure Unit 100 to 350 HORSE POWER O a- o KROESCHELL: MRticWATERTUBt 'ATKHTCO ■•» BOILER. a a For Small Steam Plants a Our BABY Steam Boiler Gravity 0 Vapor or a Vacuum a Systems • D KROESCHELL TobeleM Steam Boiler ■ KROESCHELL BROS.

If this means that the floor of the pit is three feet below the floor of the greenhouse, it would ap- pear that some of the returns are below the top of the boiler. If it is not possi- ble to lower the boiler, I should raise the returns so that they will all be above the top of the boiler. Of course the main returns should be of the same size as the main flows, and instead of a 2-inch return from each coil, uniting with the return from the other coU in the same house and running to the boiler as a 2%-inch main return, I should run a 2i^-inch return from each coil and either carry this back to the boiler or unite the two returns from each house and run to the boiler with a 3-inch return. The use of a "booster" on the system should help the circulation, but the re- sults will not be marked, both on ac- count of the number of returns to be supplied and because some of them are below the top of the boiler. As with an opon-tank system, when tne combined area of the returns is so much more thin that of the flow pipes, the circulation ii confined to the upper pipes in the coils. OALKINQ HOT WATER PIPES. Please tell us the best calking method for 4-inch hot water pipei. Should sal ammoniac and iron filings be used, and in what proportion, or red lead and oakum t Is there any advan- tage in using litharge or japan t T. M. C— Wis. The use of sal ammoniac for the calking of 4-inch pipes is not advis- able, smce, although it is excellent for making a tight rust joint, it is likely to crack the pipe. It is better to use oakum and either iron turnings or an iron cement for the purpose. A ring of oakum should first be used. After being well twisted, it should be firmly driven into place. Ths iron turnings should be used to fill all of the remaining space, the layers as driven in filling one-half to three- fourths of an inch. When iron cement is used, it should be driven in between alternate rings of oakum. There is also danger of cracking ths pipes with red lead, or litharge, but a small amount may be used with ths oakum before the iron turnings ars added. It is not needed when iron es- ment is ussd. giiiiiiiiiniiiiiiiiinic3iiiiiiiniioiiiiininiaiiiniiiinoiiuiiiiiiiC3iiinuuiiiaiiiiMiiiiiaiuoiinmDun^ Heat I Bulletin g CONVINCING BOILER FACTS The Barnhard Boiler is YOUR Boiler, becaus", it embodies features of prime importance to the greetthouse man.

D. L. Vincent, of Ionia, Mich., is en- thusiastic over his bench of Laddie carnations. He is cutting as many blooms per plant as from Enchantress, but of superior size and quality. Mr. Vincent is especially enthusiastic over one plant of Laddie, which is sporting three clear red flowers; he will work hard to get up stock for a bench of red Laddie. He wishes to know if others find that Laddie sports in other shades than its own. J. Koning, the new proprietor of the Butterworth Floral Co., Muskegon, Mich., is well pleased with his new un- dertaking, as he finds the call for flow- ers greater than his output. He will sell chiefly at wholesale and is already figuring on expansion. Mrs. G. E. Marsh, the new proprietor of the Lakeside Greenhouses, Muskegon, Mich., is having a fine trade. She has a good lot of pot plants for her local trade and her new crop of sweet peas will be in for Easter. Her two sons, who have returned from service overseas, are ac- tively engaged with their mother and are planning for expansion. L. Wasserman, of Muskegon, Mich., is busy at the greenhouses getting ready ^ for a big Easter trade and has turned the downtown store over to his son. Mrs. Wasserman is spending the winter in California. The Queen City Floral Co., Traverse City, Mich., is featuring bulbous stock, of which they have a fine display. Wil- liam Anderson, the manager, stated the bulbous stock was a life-saver this win- ter, as roses and carnations were so scarce. Mark W. Doty, of Grand Ledge, Mich., is having great success with car- nations this season. The blooms are of big size; Thenanthos especially is a sight worth seeing. This variety is grown on the most prominent bench, to attract people's attention. E. G. Mulick, proprietor of the Green- ville Floral Co., Greenville, Mich., hav- ing disposed of his vegetable range, is devoting his entire attention to his old establishment, producing flowers. Mr. Mulick stated, "It was the most logical thing to do, as I could not be at both places, and the labor situation is such that a man has to have his work ar- ranged 80 that he himself can be there with his men to supervise the work." Byron L. Smith, of Ionia, Mich., was handicapped for garden room at his city location; so he moved his green- houses a mile out of town and opened a store on the main street of Ionia. Mr. Smith is just recovering from an attack of the flu, which has kept him from his daily routine for five weeks. H. L.

The few days of sunshine last week, following the long period of dark weather, awakened the hopes of every- one that spring was about to put in an appearance. It had an encouraging ef- fect on flowers, bringing out the tulips, daffodils and other spring flowers, as well as carnations and roses in suffi- cient quantities to cause a material drop in prices. As a result of the increased supply, some of the downtown stores announced special price sales for Sat- urday, March 6, but the weath,er was not propitious and Saturday brought with it the worst blizzard of the whole winter. Fortunately, it was not long- lived and in a few hours it spent its force, although leaving the temperature several degrees colder. From almost top-notch prices, the market took a decided drop and the week closed with prices about normal, with an increasing supply, especially of bulb- ous stock. The reports indicate that there will be an unusually big cut of all kinds of flowers for Easter this year and that probably prices will not be so high as in several years past. Various Notes. John Lindblom is temporarily asso- ciated with A. J. Johnson, at Pawtucket, E. I. James C. Potter has been elected park commissioner of Pawtucket, R. I., for a term of three years.

(Trade-mark registered U. S. Patent OflSce.) Modern Methods for Modem Business Years ago greenhouse men were satisfied in using their own putty and spent a couple of weeks every year getting their houses in shape. Today, the modern greenhouse man does not want to use home-made putty and bother about putting it on himself — he knows he can get a better product — at less expense and with better results. The man who knows glazing com- pounds, and recognizes their merits, always insists on Permanite, because it is the ONE and ONLY original Asbestos Glazing Cement — all others are imitations.

AsbesfSrM An Elastic Cement That Expands and Contracts With the ^Veather Make your greenhouse weather-tight with Asbestfalt, the elastic cement that never gets hard, cracks or peels in cold weather or runs in hot weather. $1.25 per gallon. Why pay more? You can't get anything better no matter how much more you pay. The ingredients are of the purest; weighs but 10 pounds to the gallon. With the scarcity of coal and its high prices, the careful application of Asbestfalt will more than pay for itself by keeping your greenhouse air-tight. To insure best results, apply Asbestfalt with our Liauid Putty Machine, price $2.00. With every barrel purchase of Asbestfalt, one machine free.

Having said which, he ssud the following: "1 am sick of that last house 1 bought. Why in thunder did you let me buy it ? Why didn't you hit me between the eyes, when I said your house cost too much? "Doggone it all, do you know what my repaur bills are costing me these days? Well, sir, it just makes me sick every time 1 write out a check. ' "With the present price of materials of all kinds up in G, blamed if I don't think it would pay me to bum that cheap John house down and build one of yours, no matter what it costs. Now let's get down to facts and figures on a house 68x400 feet." To which let us add that the big point to our mind that this man made, was HOW MUCH REPAIRS COST these days, regardless of how little the house cost. When you buy a cheap house, just as sure as preaching you are at the same time buying expensive repairs.

" Having said which, he said the following: "1 am sick of that last house 1 bought. Why in thunder did you let me buy it ? Why didn't you hit me between the eyes, when 1 said your house cost too much ? "Doggone it all, do you know what my repair bills are costing me these days? Well, sir. it just makes me sick every time I write out a check. "With the present price of materials of all kinds up in G, blamed if I don't think it would pay me to burn that cheap John house down and build one of yours, no matter what it costs. Now let's get down to facts and hgures on a house 68x400 feet. " To which let us add that the big point to our mind that this man made, was HOW MUCH REPAIRS c:OST these days, regardless of how little the house cost. when you buy a cheap house, just as sure as preaching you are at the same time buying expensive repairs.

Telephonea: Main 2S74, Fort Hill 1083, 1084, 1085 The B. A. Snyder Co. has joined hands with the Boston Floral Supply Co. and we are now working together under the same roof. The object of this coming together is not for a Consolidation in the sense that the word Con- solidation is usually understood. The central idea embodied in this union is a very simple one, namely, Co-operation. The B. A. Snyder Co., one of the largest wholesale florists in the east, was composed of Julius and B. A. Snyder, two brothers, who have worked up a tremend- ous flower business merely through constant personal attention to their business and through fair dealings to the trade in general. Mr. Albert Strumph is the manager of the Boston Floral Supply Co. Through his keen intelligence, and particularly through his un- derstanding of the various needs of the florist, he has been a material aid in the constant and rapid growth of the Boston Floral Supply Co. It is very evident, then, that with no change in the original policy and management of the B. A. Snyder Co. and the Boston Floral Sup- ply Co., that this union of the two companies will, no doubt, result in many benefits both to us and to our esteemed customers. Our new name is Boston Floral Supply & Snyder Co. With such men as Messrs. Albert Strumph, Julius Snyder and B. A. Snyder in charge of its affairs it ought to result in a great deal of good. The important elements of this union are as follows : 1st. A material reduction in the cost of op- eration. 2nd. Lower prices. 3rd. More prompt and improved service. 4th. An increased volume of business. Don't you think, Mr. Florist, that in these trying days where economy and carefulness in buying oftentimes are the foundation of any business, that you should try us out in one way or another? Our success, now as in the past, depends entirely on a large volume of business accompanied only by a very modest profit. Our motto has been : "DO EVERYTHING For Our Customer" The more you help us increase this volume of business, the greater the benefits to you. The Boston Floral Supply & Snyder Co. wishes you to know that no matter how small ydl^v} wants may be, whether it is in Cut Flowers or Supplies, we are very anxious to hear from you. A mere inquiry about any little thing you may want to know, we shall be pleased to give our very prompt attention. Pass Us Your Easter Business and Have No Regrets r Makch 18, 1920 The Florists^ Review i:^ LILIES For Your Easter Use Draw your Lilies from what undoubtedly is the LARGEST AND FINEST SUPPLY IN AMERICA In figuring on the lilies you can use this Easter, consider several factors — remember the flower business is booming, that a tremendous demand is assured, at the best prices ever paid by the public, giving a chance for unusual profits for retailers who provide the stock and facilities to meet the demand. Remember, also, that Lilies will be of much better quality than last year. In 1919 all the Lilies for Easter were from bulbs that had been in cold storage a year and a half — this season fresh bulbs were again available, with the result that Amling's Lilies, forced from large size, selected bulbs, will be of old-time quality. They will sell easily and give unqualified satisfaction to your customers. We offer you any part of 100,000 CUT LILIES for EASTER Packed in wood boxes, 100 or 200 to the box. i SELECTED GRADE - Best and Lontfest Per 100 $35.00 Per 1000 30O.00 AVERAGE GRADE Medium Stems Per 100 $ 30.00 Per 1000 250.00 SHORT GRADE Good Flowers, Short Stem Per lOO $ 25.00 Per 1000 200.00 Rear ia miad that the total number of Lily bulbs imported last fall was not over one-half, perhaps only One- third, what America received before the war.

Each is the result of a quarter century of Canna breeding by our Mr. Wintzer, who has developed more varieties of Cannas in commerce today than probably all other hybridizers together. Mr. Wintzer says these two, each in its class, are the best he has achieved. One is a burning scarlet, the other a crystal white. Grown separately or near each other in contrast, they attract the most enthu- siastic admiration of all the Cannas in our collection of over a hundred varieties. To enable every florist to work up his own stock of these Twin winners we are making a special offer, as below. Order early; it will cause us both pain if we have to send back our regrets and your money. The President This immense new flaming scarlet has come into wider use more quickly than any other Canna we ever introduced. It is an offspring of the famous Firebird. The President leads the red varieties in the quality and also the quantity of its bloom. The flowers are 7 inches across; the in- dividual petals are firm and long standing, and do not bum, and the trusses stand up stiff on strong stems. The foliage is rich green and burn- proof in the hottest weather. Height, 4 feet. One, 50c; 10, $3; 25, $6; 100 for $20, net, f. o. b. West Grove. Snow Queen Unquestionably the queen of all white Cannas. Mr. Wintzer has been striving especially for a per- fect white Canna for many years. He says Snow Queen far excels anything he has succeeded in getting heretofore. The individual flowers are 6 inches across, the petals 2j4 inches broad. There is an occasional hint of pink, in faint dots, in the petals, but from a few feet away the effect is a crystal, dazzling white. The large bloom clusters are borne in the greatest abundance, held well above the luxuriant foliage. Height, 4 feet. Price: 1, $1; 10, $6; 25, $12; $40.00 per 100. Also, There's The Super-Six Set While you're sending for the Snow Queen and President, include also a Super-Six set, 6 bulbs each of these six Super Lily-Cannas. 100 1000 CITY OF PORTLAND, 4^ ft.

We Offer from Pots 0nly, at $4.00 per Dozen, $30.00 per 100. Not less than one dozen of a variety offered at these prices. E3ach one is worthy of a 'trial, as they have all been shown as leaders not only in color, form and finish, but as growers with sure commercial value. Anna L. Moran. The color is splendid, a bril- liant flame-scarlet, so vivid as to be easily the most striking flower in the entire collec- tion. The flowers are nicely divided on the stem without disbudding, and the growth, fo- liage and stem are all that can be desired. The individual flowers on this pompon are large, on the order of the Doty type, and it is worthy of note by the commercial growers that this variety in a glutted market brought 50 cents per spray, wholesale price, which with us is a record for pompon mums. Nelma Putnam. The outer petals of this variety are rose pink and shade to pinkish bronze in the center, and the very center of the flower is creamy yellow. A very pleasing color ef- fect. Has been grown with marked success as an outdoor variety. Mrs. H, Hairiaon. One of the first of the pom- pons to come in flower, being in excellent con- dition to cut outdoors and also from the green- house bench the middle of October. The color when grown indoors is a dainty blush. Out- door blooms come several shades deeper. Com- mercial growers who have seen this variety have picked it to be included in their collec- tion. Frances Huokvale. Gardenia white, with a creamy shaded center. Far in advance of Queen of the Whites, or any other pompon. An exquisite variety to use for cut flowers, being particularly valuable for florists' made- up work. Mrs. Chester Bobinson. This variety is a very tall, strong grower, running 4^ to S feet tall in the benches. Flowers are very large, as large or larger than Doty, which it somewhat resembles, though it is deeper in color, being a lovely old rose shade of pink. Exceptionally robust in growth, with the stalk rigid and every flower well divided on the stem, so that no disbudding is necessary. Mrs. Henry F. Vincent. An exquisite shade of fawn and bronze with a salmon-pink shad- ing, a colof that was one of the most popular shades in New York during the season Just past. This variety also is very strong in growth and the foliage is perfect in every way. We predict this will be one of the most popular novelty colored chrysanthemums when generally introduced. Julia De Witt. Bright bronzy-amber with deeper shadings. A dainty and exquisite variety. Quite large in size of individual flowers and gracefully arranged on the stem or spray. Foliage and growth very clean and strong. To anyone wishing a novel colored mum that will give them plenty of cut flowers, we strongly recommend Julia De Witt. NEW POMPONS.

ORE favorable conditions for the big spring holiday than those florists enjoy this year have never been experienced in the trade's history. The country as a whole has money and is spending. Among other things, it will spend it at Easter — and has been spending it — for flowers. All classes are prosperous and the high prices do not deter any from paying them. In- deed, the public is now so inured to the high cost of living that the newspapers no longer carry col- umn upon column each day with at- tempts and schemes to bring it down. There are, indeed, statements made that prices have reached their peak and from now on will more likely recede than ad- vance. But the in- fluences which cause these assertions are felt only by those who are in close con- tact with production and wholesale inter- ests and are not as yet felt by the con- sumer. So the latter, accustomed to soar- ing prices for all com- modities, have be- como less sensitive to jhem and buys with IfS!* hesitation and •'omplaint than he •li'i a few months ago. Many Buyers. I'l the case of flow- ^^^- it is likely that prices for Easter will "Of hit the mark Jpached at Christmas *"> f^. There is little Pr^'l'ability that they "^iH be so high as they ['"■ <" been since that Joi 'lay. So the old novor buyers who 'fi'^ight twice about P'''>!ng the stiff fig- asked a short time ago will have been brought back into the fold by Eastertide by the low prices now prevailing and will buy as they have at this holiday in former years. The florist will look to see among his customers at Easter the newly pros- perous individuals who have become contributors to his till of late and also the old patrons who were absent for a time. The conditions that make flower buy- ers numerous prevail all over the coun- try, in the rural districts as well as in the cities, in manufacturing localities as well as in the commercial centers. > 4. >• ^ t < . II f * ur< Mixed Cut Flowers of Spring Make an Attractive Easter Basket. Unemployment is unknown; everybody has a job who wants to work. The in- ilustrial unrest of today is not caused by lack of adequate remuneration and steady employment, but by the gener- osity of remuneration and abundance of employment. Everybody is be- ing paid so well each one wonders if he cannot demand and obtain more. The result may not be viewed with alto- gether perfect satisfaction by the So- ciety for the Promotion of Thrift, but it brings much money into florists' and other shops. Everybody celebrates Easter and flowers seem the prop- er thing at that time. Christmas has, it is claimed, gone ahead of the spring holiday, in dollars if not in number of sales. But there are many flo- rists whose customers have not generally adopted the custom of sending such un- utilitarian things as flowers for Christmas gifts, but who can, nevertheless, be counted on to grace their front window with an Easter lily for Easter morn- ing. This Easter we can certainly reckon on a larger number of sales than at Christmas and the sold out sign is sure to be called into use. Get Beady. Whether the total figures in money will rise to the equal of last Christmas may be questioned, but there is no doubt that florists will all make money. From the present outlook, the amount of East«i]^ sales will be Untied by stock obt«jm)l« and by the a^ity to handle the rush in the store the two or three days - i«T,T^I' V^f^. ■ ■^"•fVO *» T 34 The Florists' Review Maucii 18. 102(1 before April 4. Botli tlicse factors in the day's business require the fore- sight and preparation of the tiorist. In accordance with his ability to make proper provision in regard to them will be his profits at that time. Despite the efforts of retailers to induce the public to do its shopping early, the bulk of the sales for Easter come in the last two days. This fact requires preparation on the part of the store proprietor to arrange facilities for taking orders and filling them in the most expeditious manner. The value of suc\ forehandedncss cannot be overem- lh>>sized. The loss that results from Lhr waste made by haste and by inex- pc ionced help without proper guidance and instructions ahead of time eats up the profits on many sales. This loss is the more to be deplored because it is avoidable; such things as marking the price of all stock plainly, placing sup- plies so that they are easily available and not hopelessly scattered and mixed, dividing the force into salesmen and or- der fillers 80 that each individual can exert his efforts to most advantage, routing deliveries and handling them properly, and a number of other helps • that can be provided according to each store 's situation and facilities — all these will make the profits at Easter larger. Watch Weather. TIk early date of Easter this year and the severity of the season make uncertain as yet what weather can be expected for the holiday. It may be necessary, in case of a cold spell, to take more than usual care at Easter in wrap- ping plants. The florist should not be caught unprepared by the weather, or the day will prove far from satisfactory to him and his customers. He must w.nteli his delivery trucks, if he has ad- ditional ones put on for the day, to see that the bodies are sufficiently tight to ])rotect the plants against inclement weather. The matter of delivery is one that re- quires attention and thought. Proper routing of orders will save time. The cars should be kept going, too, for the waits between trips eat up much valu- able time unless care is taken. Be Prepared. Many other phases of Easter's busi- ness can be expedited and made much easier by careful' study and planning beforehand. Some have already been touched upon; others are suggested else- where in this issue and perhaps the in- dividual florist will think of others which can be improved in his own case, according to his own particular situa- tion and needs. Start early and make thorough preparation and your nervous system as well as your pocketbook will greatly profit thereby. HOLIDAY SYSTEM. More Business, Less Bush. "The idea of system as it runs through your head is beautiful," some- body says, "but when it comes to the rush your most finely spun system loses out." Yes, it does if you let go of it. It is impossible to handle a rush with- out it. You may escape with your life, going at it haphazard, but your nervous system and your loss and gain account will pay the penalty. In the first place, separate the order and sales departments. Let the sales- men sell; don't hamper them with fill- ing orders between times. Have a sep- arate room or portion of a room screened off for order work and let this group of workers be undisturbed by re- quests from customers who wish to be waited upon. To take care of trade already gained is just as important as gaining more. In the Order Boom. According to the number of compe- tent people whom you can muster for the order room, arrange your order slips. If there are at least two experienced i;coplo, let one take charge of the ship- ping and the other take charge of the city deliveries. Each of these files should first be arranged according to time of delivery, with the first order out on top. Then, as each order is filled and the order sheet checked off, bunch the packages for different express offices iind districts of the city. Have a sep- arate place for rush orders and special deliveries. Don 't burden a delivery man with too long a trip; better make two shorter trips of it. You can get orders out and delivery made before late bed- time. What do sleepy people want of flowers and plants? Before starting to fill orders, have all till' iiocssary articles right at hand — exjiri'ss hooks, boxes of .ill sizes, string. libbon, paper, extra pencils, train schedules, city directory and map, time. piece, order blanks, tags, scissors, kuife hammer and nails, all the bench rooin and floor space possible, a stool for a m.oment's rest now and then, a clean dry space to write on, etc. Sorting City Orders. If city and shipping orders are sepa- rated and deliveries for set times may be reduced to specials, sort your bunch of orders for the city by districts, get- ting out all the orders for one district first. New orders, which are continu- ally pouring in from the order roonij should bo placed upon a separate file, to wait until advance orders are filled. According to the accumulation of de^ liveries when it is getting late in the day, stop taking delivery orders. There is no limit to what people will ask. They will ask you to deliver immedi- ately at 11 o'clock at night. Pos- sibly for a slight difference in price they will carry their own packages or postpone delivery till the next day. Taldng Charge of Stock. Stock keeping, if carefully watched, does much to preserve the peace of mind of both customer and shopkeeper. Of course there are extra helpers for the holiday rush and usually the green- house force is drafted into service. These men are accustomed to handling stock. Place one of them, or more if necessary, in charge of storing and keeping tab on the reserve stock. The man or men appointed for this purpose will hand the stock out as wanted and will prevent pulling and hauling and destroying by inexperienced help. How many times it is sickening to see the way in which good stock is destroyed by nervous help! It is better policy to keep only a fair amount of stock on display, and let it sell out quickly and be frequently renewed, than to have it all in view and continually mauled over, and a large proportion spoiled by over- handling, bad air and drafts. Keeping Tab on Greens. Keep tab on the green goods. An enormous amount may be used in a short time. Let the stock man give warning as it gets low. It is a serious inconvenience to have to wait for jfr?eu. Watch how much goes in with flowers over the counter. Little I'X- Goulour CanUual. Rose LulsaiiU'. MurlUo.

In the arrangement of blooming plants in the salesroom, be sure to sepa- rate varieties and colors. It will be much easier then to make a selection than to roam all over the room picking the choicest plant of a favorite variety. Don't fill up small gaps too promptly; let people see that you are selling and what you are selling, and a choice will be more quickly made. Let there be more business with less work for this rush. MAKING EASTER PROFITABLE. Watching the Extra Expenses. If the volume of business done by a retailer during Easter week could be extended over a long enough period to be handled without the cost of addi- tional store help, drivers, errand boys, horses or automobiles, the profits would naturally be more than under the pres- ent circumstances. Still, by carefully "Watching every detail the extra ex- penses can be greatly reduced, and every dollar saved at this time is a dol- 'ar added to the profits. J'irst of all, refer to your notes on ''1st Easter and see how violets, sweet peas, roses, etc., sold, and in placing your orders for this year's supply order accordingly, allowing a liberal amount *<^'r increased business, but do not buy '■e' Klessly. It is more profitable to lose a 'f'w sales than to have several thou- sruMl violets left the day after. Baskets sell well at Easter, but should "f't be made up too long before or too J"any at one time. It is more advisable ^0 make them up as the demand rc- I'l'res, for immediately after Easter the market for thorn will be gone and then the stock in tliom will be practically useless. The Extra Help. Plants and baskets should all be marked with the selling price by some ( ompetent person and this price should not be cut without first consulting the person in charge. It is also wise not to allow the extra salespeople to sell (lit flowers, especially roses, unloss they have had previous experience in han- dling flowers, as many an oxpcnssivo rose or carnation is broken through iio- iiig carelessly handled. Let none but your regular help sell cut flowers or take orders for design work. By using some judgment in engaging > our extra help, many a dollar can be saved. Hire enough help, but do not ijivc every friend or relative a job just to make yourself a good fellow. Frionds arc all very well, but treat them as you would strangers if you wish them to cam their pay in Easter week. Unnecessary Wastefulness. In putting up the numerous boxes of loose flowers for delivery, an extra flower of a kind of which you have a surplus in stock will do no harm, but often, in their enthusiasm or forgetful- uoss, employees will fail to keep track of their count and, if this is not guarded against, many dollars will be given away, for which not you but the sender will receive thanks. If you want to give flowers away, enclose your card and send them where they will bring re- turns. Plants should all be carefully wrapped to guard against cold and Lreakage, but much unnecessary waste of paper and twine is often caused dur- ing the rush by allowing these mate- rials to be trampled underfoot. This, of course, is a small item; still, if the small leaks are closely watched there will probably be no large leaks. Troubles That May Be Avoided. Instruct your salespeople not to ask too many questions as to when an arti- cle shall be delivered; this will give you more leeway. Also see that the full, correct address of the customer is ob- tained; this will save many an extra trip, or perhaps a pull from east to west or north to south. There is no reason why profits on such occasions as Easter or Christmas should not be in proportion to our regular profits. It is natural for a person to get careless when business is rushing and this carelessness costs money. By keep- ing an eye on all that is going on, you can stop many a small leak and thereby earn many an extra dollar during an Easter rush. THE FACULTY OF BEING READY. A Useful Faculty at Easter. There are some men who never seem to be ready for anything, no matter how much time they have had to pre- pare, while there are others whom an emergency seldom finds off their guard. The differences in the two are readily seen in a retail store at a holiday like Piaster. To which of the foregoing classes do you belong? The retailer who grows his own stock can easily have at least two-thirds of the plants wrapped, with the number r.f flowers penciled on the wrapper, the day before. Orders can be rapidly filled The Florists' Review \i ,1 HOLIOAV SYSTEM I;; ■'■■.. O;,,, |.|. ScirT;:!'-' f'liv O.iirr 'K,'..

The only course then is to let him or her have it and wrap it specially. In many in- stances the grower from whom the re- tailer purchases liis stock is so well Iknown for straight dealing that he can be relied on to pack and number the plants as has just been indicated, and this will also be a time-saver. Never label plants or wrapped bas- kets on their side, but always on the top, with a ticd-on label. When the adhesion label is used on the side and several plants are placed together on the floor of the store or in the wagon, it is impossible to get at the label with- out pushing the hand and arm down be- tween the plants, and often to their detriment, to say nothing of the loss of time involved. The label on top can be seen at once and handled without pull- ing the plant or basket about. About Early Orders. It is useless to request customers to give their orders early unless you are prepared to fill them early and fill them right. The customer who is kept wait- ing after being asked to order early is not likely to give an early order next time. The help problem is another that has to be considered early. It is folly to wait until everything is behindhand before getting proper help. Where everything is rushed by tired and half- hearted employees, mistakes and over- sights are sure to occur, but with the right kind of help, started early, the proprietor or manager of the store can always be in front of his work, not behind. In short, the "faculty of being ready" is a mighty useful thing around Easter time. EASTER DEUVEBY. The extra delivery facilities de- manded at a holiday deserve as careful consideration as any of the problems connected with doing a month's busi- ness in three days. The average florist has as many deliveries to make Satur- day afternoon and Easter morning as are made in all the rest of the month, and unless the delivery system is care- fully planned the work is likely to be- come what is technically described as "all balled up. '^ The man who has Home greenhouses back of the store has 3 tremendous advantage at Easter. No better system has ever been devised than the one modeled on that used in the big express office or department store. It will pay any retailer who has trouble with the shipping department to visit and study the systems used where large numbers of packages go out daily. The department store has the city divided into sections, with a delivery car for each. The florist who has a large number of deliveries for Easter morning will do the same thing. He may not have a different car for each route, but will send the same machine on more than one trip. When the de- partment store's packages come to the shipping room the shipping clerk has the floor marked off, in some cases with per- manent partitions and sometimes merely with paint, with a space for each trip each automobile is to make. Each pack- age as received in the shipping room goes direct to the proper space on the floor. Consequently, when the automo- bile is ready to start everything that has reached the shipping room is ready to go in the car; nothing is left behind. If the florist adopts this system, it will obviate the exasperating special trips to deliver the one plant that did not get on the right delivery trip; the problem then will be to get the orders put up in time. With greenhouses at his back, the florist's preparations for delivery are greatly simplified. A bench can be set apart for the plants that can be deliv- ered Saturday, and others for Sunday morning's deliveries, and space in the greenhouse probably can be provided, as the plants move out, so that the sales for each section of the city for each day can be set away by themselves. The man who has neither greenhouses nor unused floor space back of the store, as is the case with many of the stores in city business blocks, can do little more than tag his plants "Sold" as his cus- tomers pick them out and then work up his deliveries as he gets the chance. THE DATE OF EASTEB. Easter Sunday falls on dates as widely separated as thirty-two days during the present century, the earliest being March 24, 1940, and the latest April 25, 1943. Next year it will be even earlier than it is this year, falling on March 27. The following year it vnll be late, not coming till the middle of April. Here are the dates of Easter for the next five years: 1921 March 27 1922 April 16 1923 April 1 1924 April 20 1925 April 12 BACK IN THE 0U> DATS. This Easter the florist thinks high prices every time he looks at lilies. The years are short since the time they could be had at one-third the price charged this year and only five years ago they were even lower. Abnormal conditions are responsible for the high figures, however, and it is expected and hoped that another year will bring lower ones. The wholesale quotations at Easter in recent years may prove in- teresting comparisons; they are as fol- lows: Per 100 1912 $ 8.00 @ lir-oo 1913 8.00 @ 1:') W 1914 10.00 O 1') 00 1915 6.00 @ l-iOO 1916 8.00 @ 1-00 1917 8.00 ® 1-00 1918 8.00 @ 1' 00 1919 25.00 @ 30.00 1920 25.00 @ 3.-' 00 AMEBicAN Gladiolus sooiETy Objection to New Varieties.

It would naturally be thought that, after a severe winter, we might expect a balmy Easter, but pleasant weather for the great flower holiday, devoutly though it may be wished, is a quite un- certain quantity. Of that we have had a bitter experience on more than one occasion in late years. We have special cause to remember the Easter of 1915, when the most furious snow storm of the winter struck the eastern states April 3, and in large measure paralyzed busi- ness. The date of Easter, April 4, was the same as in 1920, but let us hope the weather man will be much more merci- ful. But since we have climatic va- garies to contend with, let us be pre- pared for them and lay in an ample stock of wrapping material for plants. Heated delivery cars are of great value when the weather is cold. It is true that- horses have been much more valuable than automobiles in the great eastern cities for a large part of the present winter and those who have dispensed with all horses have been hard put to it in making deliveries. It would appear that Easter, 1920, will see as fine an assortment of flower- ing plants as we have ever had. It is true that we shall miss azaleas, but lilies are with us once more in good numbers and hydx^geas are proving fine substitutes for. azaleas. I do not think there will be Any surplus of plants and weeks before liRster the leading plant factories are pretty well cleaned out. Cut flowers at Easter are of but secondary importance; pot plants are what people want and their popularity will be greater than that enjoyed by cut flowers. Tor, while the latter for months are abnormally scarce and dear, pot plants have been offered at reason- able prices right along. Lilies Gtood at High Prices. Although one cargo of giganteum lilies went to the bottom of the ocean, there seems to be a fairly good supply available. The quality is extra good, with a smaller proportion than usual of diseased bulbs. The plants also are a little later with me, which is an ad- vantage. At wholesale these lilies will probably command 35 cents per bud, which is not excessive when everything is considered. The much inferior cold- storage specimens offered in 1919 easily realized these prices. With so much dark, cold weather and something of a coal famine to boot, some batches I have seen are late and need a few weeks of clear, sunny weather. The rate of growth in March is much accelerated as compared with that in February and, with the laggards, advantage should be taken of every clear day to bottle up plenty of sun heat and to keep the at- mosphere of the lily house saturated with moisture. Get all pots washed before the flowers open; keep pollen masses removed and if a cool cellar or storage shed is at command, place plants there as soon as the first flowers open. Perhaps you are also growing some formosums. They are splendid to cut, as they carry such long stems. They are variable in type and not so much in request as gigan- teums for pot plants. There are but few candidums this year; a small crop came from France and the bulbs did not average in size at all like those received in pre-war times. Still a few plants, which are showing from five to eleven buds to the stalk, look well and promise to be in on time. These are mainly in 8-inch to 9-inch pots and carry five to eight stalks each. What could be more beautiful for church decoration? In majesty, purity and grace, they are vastly superior to the large-flowered, but stiffer and coarser Easter lilies. Bambler Boses Sell Well. There is some change each year in the roses grown for Easter, but one variety still stands out preeminent, viz., Tausendschoen. This forces easily and comes in well ahead of Dorothy Per- kins, Excelsa, Lady Gay, American Pil- lar and other ramblers. It is of a beau- tiful pink color and sells on sight. The other ramblers have devotees, but none has as large a following as Tausend- schoen. The baby form of thisjtMe is also in good demand, while tl/e other polyantha or baby ramblers are filling a large space in many of the plant houses for Easter this year. I have seen some plants of Silver Moon and Dr. Van Fleet, the beautiful, comparatively new varieties. These should sell remarkably well. I have also seen nice batches of both hybrid teas and hybrid perpetuals. Among the lat- ter, good old Mag^a Charta makes a better plant than any other. The im- maculate Frau Karl Druschki is also a winner. Would it were possible to get a bush rose for Easter with flowers of as beautiful a golden yellow as Mare- chal Niel and as sweet-scented!

It is time we had some good yellow hybrid tea roses, but noue of them ap- proaches the old Marechal Niel iii color and fragrance. French Hydrangeas. A decade ago there were few hydran- geas offered at Easter and these were of the old Hortensia or otaksa type. But the advent of the new French varieties, which come in pure white, deep pink, salmon, pale pink, rose, blue and other shades, has caused a revolution in hy- drangea culture. They are unlikely to displace the old otaksa for Memorial day sales, or for use as specimens on lawns or on verandas in summer, but for early flowering they are a wonder- ful acquisition. The smallest plants bloom with remarkable freedom and their ease of propagation and culture, fine range of colors and lasting proper- ties should commend them to any coun- try florist. Such beautiful sorts as Mme. Chautard, Mme. E. Mouillere, Radiant, Mont Bose, General de Vibraye, Mme. Auguste Nonin and Eclaireur can hardly fail to sell at Easter. Speaking of these lovely plants, now is the time to get in a good-sized batch of cuttings, which when rooted can be potted off and planted outdoors about the end of May, preferably where they can be given some water if the weather is hot and dry, and potted in Septem- ber, for use another Easter. These hy- drangeas flower with wonderful free- dom and specimens 10 years old in tubs, carrying fifty or more heads, are seen at some of the plant establishments. These are among the finest offerings for the coming Easter and, Mr. Retailer, be sure to instruct your man who does the watering to give hydrangeas an ample supply, as they are thirsty subjects. Dutch Bulbous Stock. A popular class of Easter plants is Dutch bulbous stock. Probably many country florists depend more on these than on almost anything else. They are moderate in price, of easy culture, not suscejitihle to chills and make an excel- lent show for the money they cost. Most of these are grown in pans, several bulbs in each. But in the case of hya- cinths, single bulbs are sometimes grown. The severe winter has made it difficult for those who are in the habit of keeping their bulbs outdoors to dig them out and the advantages of storing in a cellar or in frames must be quite apparent. In my own case, I kept most of my stock in coldframos, and covered the pans or flats with about an inch of sand. Then, as the weather became colder, I spread eight to nine inches of dry sawdust over them and put sashes on top. I have been able to get at these bulbs without any diflScuIty and not a trace of frost has reached any of the receptacles, although temperatures of -0 degrees below zero have been record- ed. In former years coal ashes or loam has been spread over the pans. This in spite of outside protection from mats and board shutters, would freeze solid and frequently pans were burst. The sawdust makes a warmer covering and is removed in cakes easily without dam- aging the tops in the least. All of these bulbs make rapid head- way when placed in heat and, as they sell best when not too far expanded, it would be best to grow them in a cool and shaded house, especially in the case of tulips. A few days of heat will send along any laggards rapidly, but keep everything on the bench well up to the light and not below the benches, where they would become drawn and spindly. Hard-Wooded Plants. Indian azaleas will be few in number and each succeeding year will find them rarer, unless, perchance, the F. H. B. lets down the bars so that we can get in some Belgian stock. But at present the board is arrogant and self-satisfied; so we must worry along without them. Genistas there are in abundance. They are not the best of Easter plants, for, no matter how cool they have been grown, they do not last long in a warm dwell- ing. While fresh they are fine, but once they begin to droop, it is all up with them. Give them an abundance of water, for one good drying out will mean practical ruin to any plant of this woody nature. Ericas, especially melan- thera, are still available. Few plants can be kept in good condition over so long a season as these heaths. Some were in full bloom for Thanks- giving. Christmas saw them in greater numbers, and now many are in perfect condition for Easter. Of course, heaths need cold culture. Anything just above freezing suits them. Yet I know of no flowering plant which will keep better in the average American home than eri- cas, provided they are kept moist at the root. Another woody subject not so com- mon as I should like to see it is Chori- zema ilicifolia; the brilliant red and yellow leguminous flowers make a strik- ing effect.

A few boronias are seen and their delicious fragrance makes them quite popular. Then there are still some acacias, principally ar- niata, or paradoxa, as it is sometimes called. One more hard-wooded plant is the metrosideros, better known as the bottle-brush plant. While not seen in large numbers, this is a striking plant when well flowered and at once excites comment. Shrubs Suggest Spring. While not in such big demand as other plants, deciduous flowering shrubs find much appreciation and there is cer- tainly something attractive and sugges- ''Ve of spring in these plants. Here, •'uain, hard forcing is inadvisable and It is always best to have, if possible, but ^ few flowers open; some ship badly if fully expanded. Among shrubs which <'re easily flowered for Easter are decid- ^"'Hs azaleas, laburnums, deutzias, orna- I'l'ntal mains, Prunus triloba, lilacs, \" 'Sterias, forsythias, Staphylea colchica «i ".d some of the spiraeas. For Small Pocketbooks. riicre are a number of plants, small ^ ' size, but of an appealing nature, '•liich, in pots, pans or baskets, sell well '^t Easter, particularly to those whose I xkotbooks are not deep. Pansies everyone likes; forget-me-nots are equally popular and both of these can be planted outdoors if one desires. Then there are English primroses and poly- anthus, both suggestive of spring. Ge- raniums nicely flowered are not to be despised; scarlets sell the best, even at Easter.. Other plants still in good con- dition for Easter are primulas, such as malacoides and obconica, but both must he grown cold to hold them in good con- dition. The same applies to cinerarias, which have sold well this season, and some will be offered for Easter. Do not expose cinerarias to the sun or they will wilt badly. Other Offerings. Some other plants noted which are being offered for the coming Easter in- clude heliotropes in standard form and schizanthus, a beautiful plant, popu- larly called the poor man's orchid. The flowers resemble small orchids and have excellent keeping qualities, both on the ]>lants and cut. This plant is worthy of naich more consideration by com- mercial growers. Marguerites are fine Easter plants, particularly the white- flowered sorts. The yellows are good to cut, but do not make shapely plants. These need abundant water supply, as do the astilbes, better known in the trade as spiraeas. These latter plants cannot li •' overwatered. The yellow Jasminum primnlinum, when grown cool, makes a lovely Easter plant and is still much of a novelty. Callas are here in abundance, but people do not want them when lilies are procurable. They sell better cut than in plant form. Then there are al- ways some of the bright bougainvilleas, with flowers paper-like and somewhat artificial in appearance, but keeping ex- tremely well under adverse conditions. While this is not a complete list of the flowering plants available, it would iippear that a good assortment is offered and the quality seems to grow better each succeeding year. EXPRESS COMPANY ASKS RAISE. Needs $25,000,000 More. The likelihood of higher express ratei became an early certainty last weel when increas?d express charges, rang- ing from ten to seventy-five per cent and estimated to yield $25,000,000 ad- ditional revenue annually, were asked by the American Railway Express Co. in a petition filed March 13 with the Interstate Commerce Commission. Increased cost of conducting its busi- ness, as well as the urgent need for niore complete facilities and equipment, ucr? given as grounds for the request. The company estimated its deficit for 1919 at $22,036,000 and for the last six mouths of 1918 at $l.j,723,000. A deficit , '^ ; * J .-—r Hff^3!^ll^^[ynT^fath led to a summer house at the rear, m temple form, with pergola extensions ^t each side. The garden of F. R. Pier- •'•'^n Co., Tarrytown, N. Y., won second prize. This was practically the same form of garden used at a previous show, an in^tation brown stone open fence wall enclosing a garden laid out in grass beds among gravel walks, with a sundial in a circular bed, back of which was a garden bench, with an extensive pergola at the rear. The roses in the beds were mostly hybrid teas, well flowered, and every plant was named. Another inter- esting rose garden was one laid out by John Canning, superintendent to Adolph Lewisohn, Ardsley, N. Y., really an ex- tension of class 80, which called for a collection of roses in variety covering 100 square feet, arranged for effect. At the rear of this garden were some splen- did standard specimens of Tausend- schoen and other roses and in front were many varieties of hybrid teas, fully bloomed. It well merited the award of first prize, which it received. Striking Central Exhibit. A large space in the center of the main floor was given up to a fountain, furnished through the courtesy of the J. L. Mott Iron Works, New York, which played into a 20-foot basin. Water lilies and other aquatic plants were appro- priately disposed at the base and a num- ber of large goldfish disported them- ^^^^l_ *^^- ^•' V'^t^T^^^^flBlte w* *^ . -t.4^0BfG^^/^^^^^^^^ 'fi^f^ /^\^3KBBi f-»fc ^ '^QHHL/ ^^^H| '''*^S^^_JI^hH ■1^ ■^•^' '\^^^^^^I^^^H Vm .

Around the foun- tain was arranged a splendid collection of nephrolepis ferns exhibited by the F. B. Pierson Co., Tarrytown, N. Y. There was only one entry in the rock garden class. Detmer Nurseries, of Tarrytown, N. Y., staged the finest gar- den ever seen at any exhibition. It rose to a good height and was exceed- ingly well planted. The assembling of it required many days and the result was well worthy of the first prize, $400. John Canning, superintendent for Adolph Lewisohn, Ardsley, N. Y., was the largest exhibitor in the show, mak- ing nearly seventy entries, and, in spite of transportation difficulties, filling them almost completely. His group in the class of flowering plants and bulbs covering 400 square feet, arranged for effect, was marvelous, both in point of variety of plants and excellence of stock. Prominent in the foreground of the exhibit was a block of Begonia Melior. A rich piece of statnary with fountain effect added materially to the charm of this group. Several other groups staged by this exhibitor were also highly interesting, particularly a block of nemesia, with flowers in an extended range of colors, the whole wonderfully well finished. This is the first time such an exhibit has been staged at any show. Qood Plant Groups. A most handsome group, in garden form, of flowering and foliage plants, in which a number of unusually well flowered plants of bougainvillea were most conspicuous, was staged by A. N. Pierson, Inc., Cromwell, Conn., and was awarded first prize. A. L. Miller, Jamaica, N. Y., showed a number of potted Easter lilies, the quality of which was said to be the best ever seen in or around New York. The flowers were even in size, quite large and well formed, with no unproductive buds, and dark green foliage from the base of the pots up to the flower base. Mr. Miller says that these points are characteristic of the strain he forces. Thomas Proctor, superintendent for W. E. Coe, Oyster Bay, N. Y., staged a collection of camellia flowers embracing a large number of varieties. This ex- hibit attracted large numbers of vis- itors at all times, especially ladies ma- ture in years, who remembered the camellia in the days when it was a most popular flower and used when orchids were a rarity. Bulb Garden. The prize for the 500-foot bulb garden was won by J. Scheepers, Inc., New York, the only entrant in the class. The garden was artistically laid out in rec- tangular shape, with a central display of tulips around a stone bird bath on a pedestal. A border on the inside of the picket fence was planted generously ^^•iM'Ji'^" w^^PT^i^'^l ' -ff^^J •' •^.'- .7i■J"'*''T»T'^'*!^^!^^' '^*r^^T^7r-"j?^*rr^'^*^'?T'' y* '^^ '-f^ ■■'•^7 '' T'3r>**;-r"'" ■•' - 42 The Florists^ Review Mabch lg(, 192(, with tulips, hyacinths and daffodils, with peach trees and forsythia bushes in full bloom.

The principal event of rose day, March 16, was the staging of the exhibits in the class for a display of cut roses covering 300 square feet and containing not less than 500 nor more than 1,000 blooms, decorative green of any kind, including plants, to be permitted, and general ef- fect to be considered in making award. There were two entries, one by the F. P. Pierson Co., Tarrytown, N. Y., and the other by Traendly & Schenck, Roway- ton, Conn., and New York. The groups were closely judged, decision only being arrived at after the deepest considera- tion. Both displays were most artistic, and both exhibitors had gone the limit as to quantity. The judges awarded first prize to Traendly & Schenck and second to the F. R. Pierson Co. Awards made in the classes of cut roses were as follows: One hundred American Beauty — Noe & Ru- zicka, Madison, N. J., first; F. R. Pierson Co., Tarrytown, N. Y., second. One hundred Russell — F. R.

In the competition for the best hotel fable decoration, the Hotel Vanderbilt took first prize with a table of white camellias. Orchid Section Not Strong. The orchid section was poor at this show, evidently not having the sup- port of commercial growers it formerly enjoyed. Mrs. Woodrow Wilson had consented to name a new orchid, and sent a card, which was attached to a fine brasso-cattleya originated by the Joseph A. Manda Co., West Orange, X. J., which is now to become known French Hydrangeas Have Already Demonstrated Their Popolarily for Easter. as Mavehona, which in the Chey> an^ language is The Princess. The , img concern also named a hybrid orchid for General Pershing, in honor of his visit to the show on the opening day. The awards made on orchids wer.- ag follows: Group of plants In variety, covering 300 smmre feet, decorative plants permitted, arrang(>'i for effect — Joseph Manda Co., West Orange, .\ i first.

The trade exhibits, always a most im- portant feature of this show, were more numerous this year than at any previous show. Max Schling, New York, the only re- tail florist to make an exhibit, had a booth representing a flower shop, with an enormous plate glass front. Inside the booth were floral arrangements of all kinds and an electric contrivance which presented illuminated views of table decorations and floral arrange- ments. The back of the booth carried a pictorial representation of F. T. D. service. A. N. Pierson, Inc., Cromwell, Conn., had an extensive exhibit of plant stock covering the firm's general lines. The same pergola structure was used to house their exhibits which was a fea- ture of the show in 1918. Chas. H. Totty Co., Madison, N. J., had liberal space on the main floor, showing a line of rose and herbaceous plant stock and fine vases of cut flowers cf rose specialties. Bobbink & Atkins, Rutherford, N. J., Occupied their accustomed site on the main floor, where they attracted atten- tion to their extensive line of nursery 2ind plant stock. Arthur T. Boddington, New York, was to be found at his usual corner on the ^'•lin floor. An arch of sweet peas framed the entrance to his booth, and a i''ature of his exhibit was a line of pansy seeds in packets, with a real t'ower of each variety packaged. Roman J. Irwin, New York, had an •extensive exhibit of plant stock, seeds ='"d horticultural requisites. The Robert Craig Co., Philadelphia, Pa., showed samples of plant stock, both foliage and flowering.

The Horticultural Society of New York, the American Rose Society, the New York and New Jersey Plant Grow- ers' Association and the S. A. F. all had booths. A large electric sign, "Say It with Flowers," was located facing the stair- way, which was greatly appreciated by the florists. The official song, "Say It with Flowers," by Harry Von Tilzer, was on the musical program for rendi- tion twice daily during Jhe show. Henshaw in behalf of the New York Florists' Club. The dinner was served in the west ballroom of the hotel. DINNER TO JUBOBS. The jurors were invited guests at a dinner given by the show management at the Hotel Commodore, Monday eve- ning, March 15, at which there were seventy-five present. Among them were a number of out-of-town florists, includ- ing the following: George Asmus, Chi- cago; Irwin Bertermann, Indianapolis, Ind.; J. F. Ammann, Edwardsville, 111.; Fred Meinhardt, St. Louis, Mo.; Joseph H. Hill, Richmond, Ind.; Herman P. Kiioble, Cleveland, O.; C. E. Critchell, Cincinnati, O., and Fred C. W. Brown, Cleveland. The dinner was entirely informal, and there was no specchmaking. C. H. Totty welcomed the guests in behalf of th« flower show committee, and A M. ROSE SOCIETY ELECTS. Annual Meeting at New York. The American Rose Society held its annual meeting Tuesday afternoon, March 16, at the Grand Central Palace, New York, with seventy-five members in attendance. The old officers were re- elected to their positions, as follows: President — Robert Pyle, West Grove, Pa. Vice-president— F. L. Atkins, Ruther- ford, N. J. Secretary — E. A. White, Ithaca, N. Y.

John Cook, of Baltimore, Md., and Dr. Van Fleet, of Washington, D. C, were elected honorary members in acknowl- edgment of their services as hybrid- izers. Some minor changes in the constitu- tion and by-laws were made. COLUMBUS, O. The Market. Market prices here continue to de- cline slowly. They are not yet as low as those in some other parts of the country. Carnations are selling at $2.50 per dozen, as against $3 a few weeks ago. Sweet peas have dropped from 75 cents and $1 for common stock to 50 cents a bunch; orchid peas from $1.50 and $2 to $1 a bunch. Other flowers are dropping in proportion and are expected to be much lower within the next week. Green carnations were plentiful for St. Patrick's day. They sold at $3 per dozen. There is plenty of stock here and the demand is fair. The lily crop is coming along well and other bulbous stock will be plentiful for Easter. Various Notes. The Munk Floral Co. is doing some extensive remodeling and redecorating. The salesroom has been made larger. This is now one of the most beautiful stores in town for its size. J. W. T. BUFFALO, N. Y. Carna- cents per cents per for good The Market. Stock has been plentiful during the week, but not overplentiful. Prices held firm throughout the list, with only a few sacrifices left over. The prin- cipal flower to be offered at a bargain was the daffodil. The drop in the whole- sale price of these has been more rad- ical than in anything else. The week's supply made, it possible for flower buyers in some na|}iborhoods to purchase at real bargt tions were offered as low dozen and sweet peas at , bunch. The wholesale pi stock was not low enough 'to warrant this. However, there was a supply sell- ing low enough to make these bargains possible. These bargains are not favored by some, but others believe that they are exceedingly profitable to the trade by bringing back the customers whose in- comes did not warrant paying the prices of the last few months. St. Patrick's day trade brought record receipts. The local supply of shamrocks was not large, but, with the exception of one size of plants, the prices were the same as those of last year, the exception being in the price for 3-inch stock. For these 25 cents each was asked at the wholesale house. Some growers report that they have been disappointed so many years in the number of shamrocks sold that they have decided to drop them from their list, as it is difficult to grow a snail batch. This has practically left the shamrock field to one firm. Various Notes. William *R. Poore, of West Delavan avenue, was obliged to wear a bandage around his neck during the week, on .iccount of a cold. William G. Gangnagle's shop and greenhouse, on Bailey avenue, are being put in shape for a big Easter. Hya- cinths of the best quality have been ar- riving for some time. These, arranged with pussy willows and chiffon, are mov- ing at a profit which is an inspiration for branching out. To put it in Miss Gangnagle's words, "They sell so well that I know we shall not have half enough for Easter." Two years ago Miss Gangnagle had no practical ex- perience in the trade, but now she says that she is sure that the florists* busi- ness is wonderfully interesting. Edward Paufler, of Ericson avenue, was on the sick list Saturday, March 13. A severe attack of neuralgia was the cause. James Pickleman has a new Ford de- livery car. P. P. A. Anderson, Ind. — Charles Williams will grow vegetable plants and carnations for the wholesale market.

Should you ask any thoughtful man, not a florist, what to him has been the jirincipal manifestation of progress in the florists' trade in the last few years, lo would probably tell you that it has been in florists' use of printers' ink. While there has been consistent im- y>rovement in the varieties grown, in tlie quality of stock produced and in tlie methods of marketing plants and cut flowers, still the improvement has been so gradual that it has escaped the attention of most of those outside the business, but the man in the street can soe the improvement in florists' adver- tising. The advertising of flowers has im- proved in two particulars: First, there is more of it than there used to be; it is a truism that "any advertising is better than no advertising." In the second place, there has been marked improvement in the character of copy used. The day may not have passed, but it is passing, when a florist will feel that he has advertised merely because he gave a solicitor an order for space. It gradually is coming to be understood that a page of one publication may be like a page of another, so far as dimen- sions are concerned, but that there is a vast difference when it comes to cir- culation and a still greater difference of influence with and upon the readers. Florists are buying space more in- telligently every year, with less re- gard for the fact that the publisher may need the business and more regard for the pulling powers of the publica- tion itself. And, having bought space in a live publication, they are filling it with better copy. During the last few years the more extensive and more intelligent use of the * * dynamo of business, ' ' advertising, by florists has been everywhere appar- ent. No longer may it be said with im- punity that retail florists as a rule are, from long habit, nonadvertisers. A re- view of the business done on any of the notable flower days seldom fails to bring out the encouraging fact that more flo- rists have been convinced of the effl- cacy of printers' ink as a stimulant of flower sales. Apparent at Holidays. It is principally in connection with the red-letter days-^Christmas, Easter, Mothers' day. Memorial day and St. Valentijie's day — when sentiment plays an important part in the sale of flowers, that retailers have employed advertis- ing extensively, and in many cases with highly profitable results. The increase in the quantity of publicity has been attended by an improvement in adver- tising copy, indicating that many a re- tailer through experience has learned to distinguish strong copy from weak copy. As the advertising done for the big flower days must necessarily be of short duration, appearing a few days only, advertisers long ago found it expedi- ent to put a more concentrated punch into their periodic publicity. It was agreed that for short-time advertising newspaper advertisements of large di- mensions had a more telling effect and gave the flower message for the day a more conspicuous showing than did small advertisements. The sentimental appeal on flower days is a powerful factor in promoting sales, but it is a difficult matter to mix senti- ment and the merchandising of flowers in the right proportion. The thing can be overdone as easily as it can be un- derdone. One should not forget the goods advertised, nor that prices are more important than some would have us believe. As florists continue to de- vote more study to their advertising copy, the old adage that * ' any advertis- ing is better than no advertising" will go by the board. Perhaps some day the slogan will be: "All advertising can be good advertising — make the copy sell!" Does It Sell? It never should be forgotten that the reason for advertising is to sell the florists' merchandise. To inspire a de- sire for the things we have for sale we would better restrict the space given to pictures and gain opportunity to picture our plants, to describe them at- tractively but accurately, and to state the prices. The preparation of copy is one of the most important details of advertis- ing. It should be thought out with care, if the maximum result is to be obtained. First of all, the layout or display should be such as to catch the eyes of the greatest possible number of readers. Second, the opening sentences at the top of the advertisement should be such as to inspire a desire for the things ad- vertised. Third, and perhaps most im- portant of all, the plants and cut flowers offered should be described in terms that will be intelligible to the public. Where immediate, direct sales are aimed at, prices should be quoted. You will know this to be the case if you stop to consider the number of customers who ask the price before buying the article you show them and compare their num- ber with the number of those who buy v/ithout asking the price. When you have finished writing your advertisement, read it over and ask yourself the question, "Will it sell?" If the answer is "No," don't print it; write another. Many people think that plants and cut flowers are like Topsy, who "just growed," but in the trade we know that success in growing is in propor- (C We Are Moving To Our New Store" With the magnificent New Building and Store Completed.

One oi" the chief advantages of speaking through flowers is that their language i;i a universal one, the only really uni- versal language thus far evolved. Wliatever may be the nationalities of a florist's patrons, they all know that flowers express respect, esteem, affec- tion, sympathy, condolence, congratula- tion, or whatever sentiment the occasion requires. They know that flowers have a wonderful facility for adapting them- selves to all sorts of circumstances and saying just the right words at every juncture — saying them so plainly, too, tliat the dullest intellect cannot misun- derstand." Yet it is possible, and frequently de- sirable, to know the more precise mean- ings, the numerous distinct shades of meaning, in the messages conveyed by the different varieties of flowers. It is possible thus to have complete com- mand of the language of flowers, to be both fluent and discriminative in the use of that form of speech. Florists es- pecially, since they undertake to teach and popularize the language of flowers, should themselves have an expert knowledge of the language. As people continue to "Say It with Flowers" they will become increasingly familiar with the flowers' significance, and the florists, being the teachers, should al- ways be in advance of their pupils. It might not be wise for a florist to give persistent publicity to so elaborate a floral vocabulary, or list of flowers and their meanings, as is printed on this page, since only a few of the va- rieties in such a list would be available in any one season and many of the spe- cies mentioned would not be found in a florist's store at any season. But al- most any florist, besides displaying the sign, "Say It with Flowers," might at least append to that sign, occasionally, a statement as to the import of a few of the most seasonable flowers. For instance, this is tulip time. If yon don 't know what the red tulip says, con- sult the following list. Why should you not inform your customers, in some tact- ful way, that this flower utters "a dec- laration of love"? Think of the use — humorous, semi-serious or desperately serious use — that might be made of a flower laden w,ith such a message! What Flowers Say ALYSSUM, Sweet — Worth beyond beauty.

All indications point to splendid Easter stock, both as to quantity and quality. More lily of the valley ar- rived during the last week than during the preceding four months. American Beauties are still a little scarce, but some fine freesias are being received from the local growers. Some good tu- lips and calla Qilies are appearing on the market. Various Notes. Notable among the many magnificent floral tributes at the funeral of the late James J. Flannery, founder of the '\' anadium Corporation of America, was a wreath resting on an easel four feet in height designed by Harvey C. Sheaff, manager of Mrs. E. A. Williams' estab- lishment. It was composed of 200 cat- tleyaB, eighteen sprays of vandas and 1,500 violets. Another contribution from the same firm was a large Boman gold vase of Premier roses with white lilacs and pussy willows. Friday afternoon, March 12, Pitts- burgh experienced one of the worst wind, rain and hail storms in its his- tory. A large plate glass window on the Stanwix street side of the McGrath & Langhans store was blown in. Mr. Langhans/ who had just returned to the store after an attack of tonsillitis, was sitting at a desk nearby and fortunately escaped injury. Mr. McGrath was called from his suburban home, but be- fore he reached the store every plant and cut bloom in the place was frozen, William A. Clarke and Theodore P. Langhans, of the Pittsburgh Cut Flower Co., made a trip to the range at Bakers* town, Pa., Thursday, March 11, to in- spect the Easter stock. Ira H. Landis is sending in some fine freesias from his place, near Lancaster, Pa. The verdict in the case of C. Colyn, of Voorhout, Holland, vs. Theodore Verscharen, which has just been tried in the Allegheny county court, was the awarding to the plaintiff $350 and or- dering the defendant to pay all court costs besides. The report, however, is that Mr. Colyn has refused to accept this settlement. His appeal was for full compensation for bulbs valued at between $1,500 and $1,600, Mr. Ver- scharen having refused to accept the consignment on account of its late ar- rival during the summer of 1918. Earl Tipton has returned from a sev- eral days' trip to Detroit and Cleveland, where he went to inspect the new branch stores of the McCallum Co. James Reilly has been changed from the sales- room of the main store in Pittsburgh to the Detroit store on Elizabeth street. Michael J. Steiner and Peter Mat- Bukes are again on duty in the salesroom of Bandolph & McClements, following attacks of the grip. Joseph Fineberg has almost entirely recovered from the serious operation which kept him a patient in the Passa- vant hospital for two months. Mr. Fineberg, who was formerly connected with the Victoria Flower Shop of A. Krongold, is now associated with the retail shop of John Kuntz, on Seventh street. E. E. S. BAI.TIMOBE, MD. The Market. The market last week was easier than it has been for a long time; the supply has increased materially and the de- mand has to some extent fallen off. Prices are beginning to get back to normal for this season of the- year, al* though there is no precedent for flower prices this spring. Boses are in fair supply and of ex- cellent quality. Carnations, since the bright weather has come, are blooming in fine shape and plenty are to be had each day. Sweet peas, which stood still so long this winter, have responded well to the sun's rays, so much so that at times there was almost a glut of them. Bulbous stock is in fair supply, perhaps enough to meet the requirements. Calla lilies, which also seemed to have stood still this season, are now in almost abundant supply. Easter lilies, while not 80 plentiful, are in sufftcient quan- tity to supply the demand. Miscellane- ous flowers, such as pansies, mignonette and other small flowers, are scarce. This class of stock has been scarce all winter. Olub Meeting. The regular meeting of the Baltimore Florists' Club was held in Royal Ar- canum hall March 8. The advertising committee, of which Joseph S. Merritt is chairman, held the floor the entire evening. It was the committee's meet- ing from the start to the finish. It would seem that the five young men on the committee — Joseph S. Merritt, Geo. J. Muhly, C. Harry Wagner, Henry Baynes and Wm. F. Keyes, Jr. — had made up their minds that Baltimore should stay in the piker class no longer, for they came to the meeting with a specific amount of money pledged and, more than this, they had some of the city's best advertising men present to do business with. There was a discus- sion as to ways and means, but the plan that seemed to be in most favor was the It is Necessary to eliminate overtime costs in printing The Review. Advertisers are urged to send in copy on Thursday, Friday and Saturday whenever possible. If copy is not received until Tuesday we have to pay double for setting the type. percentage plan; that is, for the growers to pay one-half of one per cent and the retailers one per cent on all stock that passed through the wholesale houses. This will mean one and one-half per cent on the business transacted by the four wholesale houses of the city and should give the committee ample funds to take care of the local as well as the national advertising. The committee had $4,000 per year in sight to start with and George A. Deatel, of the Deatel Advertising Service, was asked to submit plans on a basis of $4,000 per year to get the campaign started. When this campaign gets under way this amount will be doubled, and before it is 1 year old the subscribers will, as in some of our sister cities, insist on the percentage being doubled. Baltimore may be a little slow at the barrier, but look out for her once she gets into the stretch. Fred Bauer had several blooms of his new seedling rose, W. B. No. 2, on dis- play. This is a cross between Ward and Sunburst; the color is delicate yellow, verging to orange in the center. The blooms were on stiff stems thirty inches long and covered with fine foliage. One of the good points about them is that they are not susceptible to mildew and are never seen with bent stems. George Morrison, manager of the Jacobs estate, an authority on all kinds of growing, was an interested listener at this meeting, but as Mr. Morrison is not directly interested in advertising he took no part, but when any question of growing is up he is a busy man. Varions Notes. The following members will be vis- itors to the international flower show at New York: B. Vincent, Jr., Mr. and Mrs. W. J. Johnston, A. E. Erdman, William Patterson, Harry Wagner, John Bider, William Feast, Oeorge Morris, George J. Muhly, Douglas Hamilton, GeOrge Eberly and William F. Ekas. Charles Paterson has bought the Lutz range at Glenburnie, Md., where he is growing a general assortment of stock for his Orleans street store. Wm. Patterson, of Beady avenue, has bought the Boyd Merritt range on Pa- tapsco Neck, Md. Mr. Patterson has had this range wrecked and stored and is now negotiating for a place to erect it this spring, as there is not enough room on his present location. He is of the opinion that there is a great future in growing and with the Merritt range combined with his own he will have l)lenty of glass. Tate. NEW YORK. The Market. The market is suffering from an over- supply of stock and a surprisingly small demand. The result is daily ac- cumulations, which are exceedingly dif- ficult to move. Arrivals of bulbou- flowers are enormous, many crops evi- dently arriving at one time, and the sales of other staples are materially' affected. The demand for stock haa been of the hand-to-mouth variety largely, possibly due to uncertair weather. Saturday, March 13, was ."v particularly bad day in this respect, closing with a regular blizzard for a few hours. While roses are not in particularly heavy supply, they are sluggish in movement and prices are on a normal March 18, 1920 The Florists^ Review 51 jjujis. The supply of short grades is better and the short sizes can be had at ^l jier hundred, with the better grades up M( $15 per hundred and one or two varieties bringing a little more. Amer- ican Beauty is not plentiful^ but there is quite enough to go around, the best gtill bringing $75 per hundred. Carnations are plentiful and $3 per huiulred is about the top price for select stook, with white varieties somewhat scarce at $4 per hundred. (;attleyaEN BULE. How would you like to order some 21^-inch plants at a price twice to three times what you paid three years ago and, when the stock came, find that the shipment was nothing but rooted cut- tings which, perhaps in the hope of saving the shipper's soul, had been giv- en a week in pots? In the good old days a plant "from" a 21^-inch pot was supposed to have been in that container long enough to be well rooted around; to be a credit to the shipper the roots should show all around the ball of soil when the plants were knocked out of the pot. But today plants should be offered as "for" such-and-such a size of pot, in- stead of "from" that pot, as too many florists are content to ship stock which has been shifted scarcely long enough ago for the soil to have settled in the pot. Of course it is the unprecedented de- mand for plants which is at the bottom of this trouble. If stock were plentiful it would be impossible for any shipper to send out unestablished plants and get away with it. Today buyers accept such material or go without. The dan- ger is that increasing numbers will do just that — go without. It will kill the trade of many a shipper and discourage many a buyer unless an increasing num- ber practice the golden rule. The man who sends out strictly first- class stuff under the present conditions need not worry about the future of hi' business. He will make enough fri'nds to keep his trade booming the rest of his life. PROMPT ACTION. Any member of the trade who w ints prompt action should put his proposi'ioii before the readers of The Review.

Mr, Cunningham was born in Dela- ware, O., December 25, 1890. Upon the death of his father, he became general manager of the Joseph H. Cunningham Greenhouses and was not only promi- nent in central Ohio, but well known in all parts of the country. His specialty was primroses and, being unable to se- cure good seed from Germany because of the war, he applied himself to the growing of his own seed, which found favor throughout the trade. He was Worshipful Master of Hiram Lodge, No. 18, A. F. & A. M., of Ohio, and a member of the Chapter Council and Enoch Lodge of Perfection at Columbus, O. Besides his wife and four children, ne is survived by his mother, two sis- ters and a brother. The funeral cere- mony was conducted according to the Masonic rites. Many beautiful floral pieces testified to the high position he held among his friends and the florists' trade throughout the country, A. F. Harf St. A.

The family moved to Muncie, Ind., in 1881, and located in Anderson, Ind., in 1889. He and his sons established the firm of B. H. Klus & Son. He had a genial disposition and was strong in the affections of his friends. The funeral took place Saturday, March 13, at 9 a. m. at St. Mary's Catholic church. The burial was at Muncie, Ind.

H. P. TORONTO, ONT. The Market. Many prices have been reduced, in- cluding those on roses, carnations, or- chids, calendulas, mignonette, violets, sweet peas and lilies. The most plenti- ful flower is the orchid, which has grown in popularity until now there Is a large demand for it. Stock is a little more plentiful and, with the passing of the flu epidemic, the florists are in a better position to fill orders. The out- look for Easter is promising. The warm weather is assisting the growers and there are prospects for a good supply. Easter lilies will cost more this year, running from 20 cents to 25 cents per bloom. Club Holds Social Evening. The Gardeners' and Florists' Asso- ciation held its annual social Tuesday, March 9. There were over 100 present. Progressive euchre was enjoyed the first part of the evening, twenty tables being required for those taking part. After refreshments the remainder of the evening was spent in dancing. Ice cream and macaroons were served later. Those who attended stated that this was the first really social affair the as- sociation has held, as it permitted the members and their wives to get ac- quainted. Various Notes, T, W. Duggan, manager of the Dale Estate, has been ill and is in the Gen- eral hospital. The Allan Gardens greenhouses, at one of the city's parks, have been open to the public and will be until Easter. The displays of plants, flowers and palms were fine and the opportunity of visiting the greenhouses was much ap- preciated. A resolution has been passed by the Riverdale Horticultural Associa- tion asking that all the greenhouses in the various parks in the city be opened to the public and that additional green- houses be provided to permit the proper display of plants, etc, and that the plants should bear labels bearing the names. At the closing of the short course on horticulture at Ontario Agricultural College, at Guelph, papers and addresses were given by many prominent florists. These included Professor Thomson, of Toronto University; W. W. Gammage, of London; W. E. Groves, of Hamilton; H. J. Moore, of Niagara Falls; E. B. Hamilton, president of the C. H. A., London; P. Bennett, president of the Bt. Thomas Horticultural Association; J. Lockie Wilson, president of the On- tario Horticultural Association; A. P. McLennan and others. Alexander Simpson, secretary of the Gardeners' and Florists' Association, was a guest. The chair was occupied by Prof. J. W. Crow. Professor Thomson is calling a meet- ing for March 27 to take further steps towards the establishment of a botanical garden at Toronto. All those who are interested are invited to attend. H. J. Moore, superintendent of Vic- toria park, Niagara Falls, addressed the Rose Society, March 10, on "How to Grow Plants. ' ' The executive committee of the C. H. A. will meet in Hamilton in April to arrange a program for the convention at Hamilton, August 10 to 13. At that meeting a council of horticulture will be appointed. The Gardeners' and Florists' Asso- ciation has appointed a committee to assist its representative on the board of the Canadian national exhibition, P. L. Whytock, in making arrangements for this year's exhibit. Mr. Whytock and Alexander Simpson are at the New York show to secure new ideas for mak- ing the fall exhibit a greater success and to secure suggestions for the better arrangement of the building and ex- hibits. J- J- H- CHICAOO. The Market. The market has been in a most un- usual condition during the last week. The supply of flowers has been large, though not unseasonably so, and the city demand has been good. Shipping, however, has been conducted with diffi- culty and it has been impossible to dis- patch the quantities of flowers which would have been sent out had trans- portation facilities been normal. Tak- ing all things into consideration, the market has got along splendidly in the face of the express strike. One might have supposed that a suspension of ex- press service through strike and em- bargo would have resulted in an almost complete cessation of shipping, but the fact is that most of the regular cus- tomers are being taken care of after a fashion in one way or another. It is not possible to make the big shipments that ordinarilv go out from a well supplied market, but the regular customers who are paying fair prices are getting their flowers. The shippers either run the blockade imposed by the express officials or use the parcel post. While the postoffice facilities are greatly con- gested, the management has risen to the occasion in better shape this time than for several years. Although there are huge accumulations of parcels, the perishable shipments, especially if a special delivery stamp has been used, are getting fairly prompt service. There are, of course, instances in which shipments have been delayed for days and were a total loss, but the losses are comparatively few and do not dis- courage the shippers, who feel them- selves lucky under the circumstances. But it cannot be denied that the ex- press strike, coming at a time when stock is so plentiful, is having a disas- trous effect on the trade. Losses are [Continued on pa«c 58.1 l{mil!^<«iaHi«i-i iifi|i|f«ip!Wifw^Pii,,u«»i w'm»yww^fm.,y^vi'«^}i ' W'*;"WTP iji'fl W'?"^*!'-? 54 The Florists^ Review Mabch 18, 1920 Finest Quality An Enormous Supply in CUT LILIES You can get of Amling's is the largest supply in Lily advertisement on American Beauties Amling's offers a splendid crop of Beauties for your critical Easter customers. □ Ij Fancy Roses Amling's offers the largest supply of strictly high grade Roses in America; specially strong on Premier, Columbia and Milady.

It is impossible to sell all the flowers locally, and it is impossible to do business with the quan- tity buyers out of town. The result is a wide spread in prices; the stock that is shipped with much effort is being billed out at reasonable figures and the city buyers are paying moderate prices for their regular purchases, but the sur- plus is so large that it cannot all be moved through trade channels at any price whatever. The only possible out- let would be through department stores, but everybody in the trade seems in- clined to profit by last year's lesson and throw stojck away rather than have it cheapened in the eyes of the public by such ridiculous sales as occurred in last spring's glut. The result is that most of the wholesalers now report sales run- ning behind those of last year. It is the first time since early November that the daily sales reports have not been show- ing good gains. There is no use particularizing as to stock under these conditions. There is an abundance of everything in the way of cut riowers. The quality of the stock is excellent. There is nothing to be desired except an opportunity to do business, such as is denied the trade by the express officials and employees. for in- curiously, however, a lot of the strikers are now at work handling mail in the emergency force of the parcel post ilC' ]iartment. One of the notable increases in the supply is of Easter lilies. These "ire the precocious flowers, too early Easter. Otherwise the principal crease is in the supply of sweet poas, which have come into full crop under the influence of better weather. Greens are scarce. The frost in Florida has shut off some of the ship- ments of asparagus and the express embargo has made the shipments of eastern ferns and of California greons March 18, 1920 The Florists^ Review 59 Lilies for Easter $25, $30 and $35 per 100" ^hes^are from the same grower who made ^•^ '^> H^^^^ «****■ ^K^-^*-' f*^* AW Randall s Lihes famous for so many years.

The Express Situation. . The express strike is getting on the nerves of the men in the market. While they speak gently to those in the ex- press service, in the trade there is strong condemnation of the policy the management is pursuing. After ten days of interrupted traffic, the situation is exactly what it was at the start. The management seems to be doing abso- lutely nothing; it neither seeks to reach an agreement with the strikers nor to do business without them. In the mean- time shippers suffer. The embargo continues. The manage- ment at the start of the trouble gave orders to agents throughout the coun- try to refuse shipments for Chicago, and in Chicago all attempt to give service was abandoned, although wagon men and some of the station employees are at their posts. But more or less freight comes in every day and some goes out, in spite of the official embargo. Agents at a distance "forget" and forward some of the shipments offered. These get prompt handling here, because the men still on the job have nothing else to do. With outgoing freight it is only slightly different. If you have a friend in the station crew you take your stuff to him and he gets it off, though ordered not to accept it. If someone complains of favoritism an official gives the station men a call- ing down and the lid is on tight for an hour, but nobody loses his job and soon everything is as before. The shippers feel that it is up to the management to get busy and give serv- ice, one way or another, without inflict- ing further loss on the public, but little is said for fear of making a bad mat- ter still worse. Easter Prospects. Supposing that express service will be normal by then, there is every indica- tion that the Easter business will break all records. Orders already are coming in numerously and average larger than ever before. The prices at which advance orders are being taken average much higher WE DO AS WE SAT F^ l^J^ last week says that "the consensus is that EASTER will make a new record for the trade.

THE RIBBON HOUSE ScHLoss Bros., Ribbons, inc 31 and 33 East 28th Street, EW YORK HEADQUARTERS For Florists' Ribbons, Chiffons and Novelties than those of other Easters, but are not nearly so high as at St. Valentine's day. The prices are based on the belief that the supply of stock will not be larger than in recent years, but that the de- mand will be much heavier. There has begun to be an idea that the supply of cut lilies will be enough to go around at the price, which is more than double what was asked two years ago, the last Easter of normal supply. But a good many growers say their roses will not be in full crop and it begins to look as though there may be fewer flow- ers than had been expected. Carna- tions will be in heavy crop. Bulbous flowers will be less plentiful than usual, because of the high cost of the bulbs, but sweet peas will be in the largest supply ever known. Flowers are aver- aging of unusually good quality at pres- ent and Easter is too early for much change to be feared. Stock should be fine. The Cooperative Advertising. The Allied Florists' Association is do- ing more than advertising flowers, as witness the following letter sent to the retailers March 15, by Secretary Swen- son: TO THK RETAIL FLORIST. The natural channel of distribution of flowi-rs U the retail florists — they should bo sold to tin- public by tlip retailers only. There is nn abnormal supply of flowers on the market right now. We can't put the blame on anyone, for the present condition is gov- erned by the weather, the express situation an. I otherwise. But this stock must be moved — sold! It should not be dumped and the producer suffer :i loss. I am sure you will agree that every retailiT should fully realize that he is the natural dis tributor of these flowers and during these tIm<-<< of glut should do his utmost to help move this stock. If every retailer felt this responsibllit.v and bought an extra share, the glut would sub- side considerably — 400 retailers, each buying a little extra, soon counts up. Yon say, "What am I going to do with the extra flowers?" Sell them! S«ll them by putting on a sale for several days — make the price so attractive the public will buy. You won't lose. Don't you tbink it's better to make 100 sales at 60 cents profit each than ten sales at a profit of |1 each? Figure it out. And the best part of it Is, you bring people into your store and make new customers that way. Marshall Field does business that way — why can't fiorists? It Is one of the best ways of getting new business. Oo after business. You only get half as much if yon wait for it to come to you.

Panl Weiss Makes Another Deal. Paul Weiss has just put through an- other deal in greenhouse property, but this time he is not adding to his list of four splendid establishments, having turned his purchase over almost imme- diately to Fred Wehrman, of Oak Park. The range involved is that built by Fred Weber, in Bowmanville, and operated with great success until his death. Mrs. Weber has continued the business, re- cently under the management of her son, Arthur, who returned from the war nearly a year ago. Originally built for Beauties, the range now is in roses^ Mr. Weiss held his purchase only a few days, passing the property on to Mr. Wehrman, who has been looking for a good place to start his son, Elmer, in the business. The cut w^ill, as hereto- fore, be sold by the E. C. Amling Co. Various Notes.

ACACIA — Very choice. ROSES and a good assortment of other flowers. THE PHILADELPHIA WHOLESALE FLORISTS^ EXCHANGE 1615 RanstMd Str««t, PHILADELPHIA fidently asserted that Easter lilies are more plentiful today right here in Phila- delphia than anywhere else in this country. This year there are marked changes in the varieties of plants grown, owing to the war and the embargo. The grow- ers have made the most of their oppor- tunities. The assortment, as offered to- day, covers a wide range of varieties. The quality of the stock is superior to anything ever seen here before. Robert A. Craig made time be'fore leaving for the international flower show in New York, where he is staging a handsome exhibit, to go over some of his special features in blooming plants. Easter lilies came first. The return of high-grade, freshly imported l)ulbs has made it possible to produce Lilium giganteum of superb quality. Buds, foliage, height, finish, timing, leave nothing to be desired. There will be plenty of lilies. Roses are fine, but not so plentiful. There are few growers of pot rosea. The supply will not equal the demand. Hydrangeas, in a number of the French varieties, are extremely well flowered and beautifully colored. There is a refinement about many of these French varieties that makes them charming. . Otaksa, too, is good. Mr. Craig pointed out a house of Azalea Hinodigiri that presented a fine sight. They ranged in size from small basket plants to large specimens grown on pedestals. Another house, filled entirely with ^ - -■ - - -. . .«» ' i|«»"» "Pi^ fiifj^ VJf*^^ ' W "^ ■• "W.*"!!*.!

An exceedingly fine lot of Cineraria hybrida in a rich variety of colors was produced from a special lot of seed that George D. Clark had secured and wanted tested. The individual flowers on these plants were extremely large. Primula obconica, with over twenty blooms to a plant, was as showy as small hydrangeas. These are only a few of the many Easter blooming plants grown here and hereabouts to- day. This description is merely in- tended to give an idea of what is being done.

The Market. blowers are getting plentiful as busi- 'I'ss decreases, but the downward tend- ency in selling is considered only a re- action from the feverish rush of a few ^oeks ago, when there was not stock enough to take care of the orders. Busi- ness is about normal for this season. Prices are lower, because the weather has been right to bring on seasonable crops and there is a good supply of spring stock, carnations, sweet peas and a fair supply of roses. Many of the lilies this year will be late in blooming and will not be avail- able for Easter. About half of the crop will be on time and this will be suffi- cient to take care of the retail busi- ness, but there will not be any to whole- sale to other florists, as in many years past. What growers thought was the giganteum this year must have been~an- other variety of lily, as the stem is green instead of brown and bushes out from the start, which the giganteum does not do. Various Notes. The W, L. Rock Flower Co. will have a large number of azaleas and rhodo- dendrons for Easter. It is the only firm that will have rhododendrons and Mr. Rock is particularly pleased with these, as they have been grown from Califor- nia stock and it is the first time they have been tried in his greenhouses. Mrs. T. J. Noll has been ill for several days and has been confined to her home. Vincent Thomas, the little son of Mr. and Mrs. C. L. Thomas, of the Rosery, is recovering from a severe attack or tonsillitis. Samuel Murray has a fine crop of lilies and hydrangeas, which will be in time for Easter.

It was de- signed for a centerpiece and contained favors for a St. Patrick's day dinner. T. J. Noll & Co. have added space to their establishment by renting another large room for stock. This is on the same floor as their shipping room and office. A balcony will be built on three sides to hold supplies. Improvements are also being made in the display room, where tables and cases are being in- stalled, so that many lines will be ac- cessible for inspection by the customers. A new billing machine will be added, with another clerk in charge. George E. Kessler, landscape engineer, and the park board have set aside a prominence on one of the hills of Swope park, east of the old rifle range, for a Roosevelt memorial grove. The site is visible from the shelter house and, just as soon as the weather permits, the Boy Scout troops will plant trees in mem- ory of the former president.

J. E. K. NBWAEK, N. J. The Market. Potted spring bulbous stock is now arriving on the local market in large quantities. Prices on all kinds of flow- ers have dropped to a much lower point than they have been for some time. Sweet peas may be purchased now for 35 cents per bunch and hyacinths with four or five blooms to the pot are sell- ing at $1 to $2 per pot, a figure much lower than last year. Tulips, jonquils, etc., sell at a rela- tively low price. Carnations are more plentiful than they have been. Funeral work continues to form the bulk of the business. Various Notes. With the advent of warmer weather, pushcart flower venders have made their appearance on the streets of Newark. The Washington Florists, 577 Broad street, report business good at the pres- ent time. Funeral work is making up most of the trade. Fred D. Wolfinger, Broad street, re- ports business exceptionally good now. E. B. M. BOSTON. The Market. There are too many cut flowers arriv- ing for the rather weak demand and prices continue on the down grade. The weather has been much milder and con- siderable snow has disappeared. More remains, however, than we get in some ordinary winters altogether. Saturdays are usually busy days with retailers, but March 6 gave us the worst blizzard of the winter and March 13 torrential rain, which flooded streets, sidewalks and cellars and made shopping the reverse of enjoyable. As a result many flowers have been carried over at the markets and values are quite low. Roses are in a particularly weak position and move slowly at prices about the same as a week ago.

A few fancy Hadley sell as high as from $40 to $50 per hundred, but the general run of hybrid teas sell at from $2 to $16 per hundred. Carnations have weakened even more than roses and many are now sold at $2, while $4 is the limit for se- lect stock. Sweet peas are in heavy supply. Short-stemmed stock is sold at the rate of 300 for $1, while select, long- stemmed flowers realize up to $2. Vio- lets are weak and 75 cents is now top price, with many selling lower. Lilies remain slow and there is a sur- plus of callas for the first time this sea- son. Daffodils hold up rather better than other flowers. Calendulas, mig- nonette, myosotis and marguerites are all selling rather poorly at present. Some good St. Brigid anemones are com- ing in. These, with iris, are the most recent additions to the varieties of bulbs offered. There are still a good number of Cattleya Trianae, while Schroeder8B has also appeared. Cypripe- diums are quite scarce. Asparagus is in short supply and selling well. Various Notes. A large number of local florists and gardeners from Boston and vicinity are visiting the New York flower show. Among those who started March 14 to act as judges were Thomas Roland, H. H.

A. F. national conven- tion and show was held here. March 24 a dinner will be given to visitors from a distance. On the following evening the orchid conference will be held and Kewites in America will hold a reunion and dinner the same night, which will be well attended. There were several severe losses from the blizzard of March 6 among commer- cial growers. The heaviest occurred at the Coolidge range, near Mount Auburn cemetery, where four houses, 40x200, collapapd under the weight of snow blown in blinding clouds on the roofs. The loss in all houses was complete. Bedding plants and vegetables were mostly grown. Several other houses were damaged. Mr. Coolidge will prob- ably not rebuild. Mrs. Jennie P. Snow, the carnation specialist of Sharon, lost her best house of carnations and has the sympathy of many growers. On other ranges some damage was done, more serious than from the great storm of February 5. Charles F. Boyle was elected presi- dent of the T. F. Galvin corporation last week. Mr. Boyle is extremely popular in the trade. He has worked since boy- hood with Galvin 's and well deserves the position he has just been given. His many friends tender congratulations. William E. Nicholson is around again after a severe illness with pneumonia. He will leave for Pinehurst, N. C, this week, where he will recuperate and en- joy the mountain air and excellent golf course. He will visit the New York show en route. W. N. Craig addressed the Garden Club of America at its spring conven- tion in New York March 17. E. H. Wil- son, of the Arnold Arboretum, will give a lecture on "The Flowers and Gardens of Japan ' ' before the Garden Club of Orange and Dutchess Counties, New York, at the Colony Club, New York, March 19.

Portland, Ore. — John K. Scheffer, for- merly of Lawrence, Kan., has started in business again at 1555 Burrage street. He intends to grow a general line of bedding plants, some cut flowers and gladiolus and dahlia bulbs. LOS ANOELES, CAL. The Market. A considerable drop in the price of carnations shows that the effect of Lent is being felt and wholesalers are not shipping so much stock as they were one or two weeks previously. ^Bulbous stock is more plentiful, especially daffo- dils and hyacinths, and some days large amounts of such stock have been moved off for cash at considerable reduction. Eoses are coming more freely and are iust about equal to the local demand, though really good shipping stock is still scarce. The Spanish irises are espe- cially good this season, but are short in supply and high in price. Callas are more plentiful and it looks as if there would be no shortage for Easter. Cut Easter lilies will be scarce, but probably there will be enough potted stock at the high prices growers are asking. Or- chids are still below the demand. Cecile Brunners continue to be scarce. Sweet peas are arriving in better condition and are a little more plentiful. Greens are scarce. Club Meeting. The regular meeting of the Los An- geles Florists' Club, held at Christo- pher's March 11, was a most pleasant and successful one. The members present were: I. Purdio, F. Warner, A. F. Bor- den. H. R. Richards, W. Armacost, F. K. Hills, Albert Goklenson, John Polder, F. H. Howard, H. Reeve Darling, N. Mavnnrd, A. Knopf, F. Lichtenberg, C. Gutting, Rov F. Wilcox and J. RoUeri. The visitors were E. A. Fetters and Thomas Browne, from Detroit, Mich.; C. E. Morton, from Phoenix, Ariz., and his brother, Hubert, just in from Seat- tle, Wash. President Armacost called on the vis- itors for a short speech, to which re- quest they all responded happily. Both of the Detroit visitors spoke of the beauties of California scenery and cli- mate and also expressed themselves as delighted with the welcome they had received from the local trade. The fol- lowing new members were elected: Fred Dostal, Reggie Overstreet, E. C. Amling, Howard Amling and E. H. Yolkman. The question of cooperative advertis- ing was taken up by the publicity com- mittee and President Armacost, H. Beeve Darling and Pred Howard all spoke of their experience in individual advertising. Mr. Darling said that he would give his time gratis to preparing copy, an offer which naturally was re- ceived with enthusiasm and immediate- ly accepted. Albert Knopf and other members spoke in favor of using the S. A. F. slogan, "Say It with Flowers," as much as possible and elaborating on it to suit local conditions, a suggestion that seemed to appeal to all. A tenta- tive proposal to levy a small percentage on all growers, wholesalers and retailers was discussed and it was suggested that the principal Japanese growers be asked to contribute to the general fund. Cooperative delivery also came in for discussion, and the committee which had been appointed asked all retailers pres- ent to prepare a statement as to what The Best Easter Lilies (POTS) The Finest Calla Lilies (CUT) And Everything in Cut Flowers an d G reens FOR EASTER & MURATA & CO. 380-386 S.

The question is a serious one in such a wide-spreading city as Los Angeles, where the true busi- ness section is confined to a compara- tively small area. It was also decided to have the membership include all towns and cities in southern California, since it was thought that this would bring the club a more representative membership, and facilitate cooperation. Various other points were discussed and it was later than usual when a motion to adjourn was carried. Various Notes. Louis N. Dupuy, of Whitestone, N. Y., ia paying this city a visit and is having a look around the growing establish- ments. For two or three days Fred Howard was his pilot and they took in a good deal of the country, including the Howard & Smith establishment and Rudolph Fischer's range, Mr. Fischer being an old neighbor of Mr. Dupuy 's. Roy Wilcox took Mr. Dupuy and E. A. Fetters, of Detroit, Mich., out to Sierra Madre to the palm growing establish- ment of Bassett & Washburn. Mr. Dupuy expressed himself as delighted with southern California. Mr. Fetters has bought five acres of land near Santa Monica. Harry Bailey, of Montebello, reports that his freesias are in better condition than over before, with splendid pros- pects for a large crop of bulbs. Mr. Bailey has again joined the ranks of the married men, much to everyone's surprise. His many friends in the trade join in wishing him every happiness. W. Rapp, president of the Pasadena Horticultural Society, is expecting a record-breaker in the society's show, which opens April 8 and continues through April 10. Roderick Mackenzie, now getting established in his nursery, is growing fine pot stock of primulas, ferns and other popular items. The Crown City Nurseries are build- ing a new greenhouse, 25x100 feet, at their Villa street range at Pasadena. This firm, in the short time it has been in business, has worked up a fine trade. Both partners, William Rapp and Frank Rossiter, are experienced men in the business. Landscape work is one of their specialties. Mrs. Paul C. Hahn, Cleveland, O., and a party of friends visited the city last week. C. F,. Morton, of Phoenix, Ariz., is in the city looking up stock for Easter.

The center of the room was strung with telegraph wires, with flow- ers coming and going by wire. Various Notes. The local growers state that they have to watch the Easter lilies closely, as they are all more or less backward and, with Easter so near, no chances can be taken. B. Briggs, formerly of Lewiston, Idaho, has joined the force of the Spo- kane Florist Co. Eetailers report a large number of funeral orders, although all signs of the flu have gone. H. H. SEATTUS, WASH. The Market. With funeral work holding up well and the increased arrivals of spring flowers attracting the casual buyers, there was a noticeable increase in busi- ness last week and general satisfaction is expressed by members of the trade. The first anemones of the season ar- rived during the week. Tulips are ar- riving in such large quantities as to bring some reduction in prices. The same is true of California violets, but a falling off of orders is expected to remedy this to a certain extent. The local greenhouses are supplying more roses for the market, with Columbia and Ophelia leading. White Killarney and Premier are also to be seen in quantity and Ward and baby roses are the main items in late California arrivals. Free- sias are plentiful but in slower demand, as the result of the many novelties. They have been freely used in funeral pieces recently and help to hold down the cost of this work. Local sweet peas are in heavy enough supply and of fine enough quality to keep out southern of- ferings.

There is every prospect of a good supply of stock for Easter, but of course prices have advanced over those of past years. Artistic boxes and baskets of spring flowers will be in big demand. Our rose growers expect to be in with a good crop and Lilies, Carnations, bulb stock and other staples promise to be plentiful. We do not solicit or care to fill orders for less than $5.00, but at or above this amount we can guarantee satisfaction to your customers.

The list of dates given with the ar- ticle entitled "Auto Shows Arc Com- ing" in The Eeview for January 1 fihowed the first three months of the year to be a season busy with automo- bile exhibits in all parts of the country and consequently full of opportunities for florists to extend their trade. The various suggestions given as to how this could be done, both in connection with the sliow itself and in appealing through window displays to the crowds that would throng each particular city during its show week, were acted upon by florists in a number of the cities with excellent results. The order for decorating the exhibi- tion hall is a desirable one and the com- petition for it is keen, since, calling for the exercise of great ingenuity in solv- ing large problems, it brings a large money return and good publicity for the florist. In Buffalo various plans were submitted to the Automobile Deal- ers' Association in competition for the order to decorate the Seventy-fourth Eegiment Armory for the automobile show which was held there February 28 to March 6. The plan of Albert Eeichert was finally selected, with re- sults which are here described and il lustrated.

The effect was dis- General View of Buffalo Automobile Show Decoration by Albert Reichert. tinctly pleasing, since the smilax hid the ceiling and tended to reduce the effect of the great height of the arched roof otherwise visible. From the cen- ter of the smilax canopy hung an enor- mous basket, which was twenty-two feet in diameter at the top and tapered to eight feet at the bottom. The bas ket was decorated with beautiful wis teria blooms and from it eighteen pow erful electric lights, which were sur rounded by a rotating color scheme op erated by a motor, flashed rainbow col ors incessantly. White and gold bunt ing was used to cover all four sides of the auditorium. At regular intervals along the rails of the balcony were hireli-hark flower boxes seven feet long, filled with beautiful cibotium ferns and fancy varieties of crotons and dra- casnas. Stately palms and ferns were ranged along on the floor beneath the balcony.

Sus- pended electric lights of high power showed the auditorium decorations to full advantage. An improvised dining room was screened off with smilax and foliage. Plants and flowers of every description were arranged in baskets at each of the separate booths. As one precaution against the pos- sible destruction of the valuable exhib- its by fire, all of the smilax and other greens used in the decoration were treated with a fircproofing dressing, which, however, did not affect their ap- pearance. TRAVEL KESTRIOTIONS OFF. The removal of restrictions on tourist travel to Europe is greatly increasing the number who are making the ocean trip. The military control at the Brit- ish passport bureau in New York has been abolished and now there is no longer need of tourists giving five days notice, but they may have their pass- ports vised at the consulate in a few minutes. Other restrictions have been dropped, with the result that tourist travel has been greatly accelerated. All the berths on vessels leaving New York are taken long beforehand and there is in addition a waiting list to take advantage of last-minute cancella- tions. The hotels in London and Paris are reported to be so crowded that reser- vations must be cabled from this side if one does not wish to walk the streets after he arrives there. At the present time the New York florists who cater to such trade are en- joyinff good business in steamer orders, which seem to grow constantly. Of course, it is not back at the old pre-war level, but with the resumption of tour- ist travel as of yore and renewal of florists' efforts to develop steamer busi- ness, this branch of trade gives indica- tion of climbing to a high mark this coming season. DINNER-DANCE DECORATION. Decorations for those who dine may be thought of as intensive decorations; decorations for those who dance, as ex- tensive. In one case, the people are sit- ting down and their attention is fo- cused mainly on that part of the table in front of them. In the other, they ^^c either moving around or sitting wliere their gaze may wander over large ^all spaces. In the first instance, the individual flowers are likely to be scru- tinized; in the second, the mass effects ^'ill make a more general impression °n the observer's mind. The room in ^hich the dinner is given may be light- ed entirely from the table itself, thus increasing the prominence of the table 'I'oorations, while the ballroom is al- '^ost certain to be lighted from the ^ails or ceiling, or both, thereby spread- in? the attention over all the interior. Decorating for a dinner-dance com- bines the two problems. An interesting 3<'"!t solution of them is illustrated on "' following page. These deco- rations Henry A.

The little old red and blue sled that Dad gave nie over thirty years ago. Say, do you know what happened next ? In fifteen minutes that sled, and a pair of rubber boots with me inside of them, was scooting lickety-brindle down Deacon Hadden's big hill, just as he was coming home from church. The Deacon waited for me to come pufifing and blowing back up the hill and kind o' took me to task for " a man of my age doing so unseemly a thing on the Sabbath day." Hold on. Deacon, says I, don't you go and spoil the most fun I've had * since Carlo was a pup, by poking any of your fird-and-brinistone Sabbath day stuff at me. Furthermore, I've got a more important matter to talk to you about. See that old sled ? Recognize it? ' You don't ? Well, that's the very sled you made for me over thirty years ago last Xmas, I'll bet there are ten more of them made that same year, that are hanging . up in garrets or wood sheds right now. Yes. and a lot more besides, standing on their runner ends, waiting for tomorrojv to come so they and their little owners can go whooping and hollering down this very hill. Sleds that their Dad used to have when they were boys. Sleds that y.ju made. Deacon. You sure did know how to make sleds. Well," says he, 'whatever I build in my life, I try to BUILD TO LAST, whether it's building sleds, or building the sled business. Reckon it's a pretty safe way. Say, George, you've made nie gol darn pleased, saying what you said about them old sleds of mine. Seems like I ain't been so dojj-gone happy in many a day." That night, when toasting my shins before the open fire, got to thinVin? about us Sorists and wondering how many of us are building our business the way the old Deacon built his V New York's Favorite Flower Shop Fifth Avenue at S8th Street in the palm room of the Hotel Mary- land, Pasadena. The tastefully ar- ranged centerpieces of daffodils, rain- bow freesias, tulips, snowdrops, ranun- culuses and anemones, with adiantum, gave each table distinct attractiveness, especially when the delicate flowers and greenery were seen by candle-light. From the dancers' point of view, the general appearance was that of a gar- den, an appearance which was strength- ened by the changing lighting effects, from sunset glow to twilight and starry night. In the center of the room stood a blooming peach tree, with a spread of twenty-five feet; its base was sur- rounded by ferns. On all four sides of the room were specially constructed walls seven feet high, covered With rose 102 The Florists' Review Mmci'U is, I't'Jd RETAIL STORE MANAGEMENT WHAT THE LEADERS IN THE TRADE ARE DOING BUFFALO'S BIG AUTO SHOW.

In recent issues of The Review have appeared articles on show window light- ing which detailed how the retail florist might improve his displays by attention to the light falling upon them. These suggestions took account of the general problems of lighting windows. The flo- rist who has a corner store is faced by somewhat different conditions. Standing before a window open only on one side, you will, if the lamps are correctly placed, be able to view the dis- play without annoyance from exposed light sources. But if you could knock a hole in one of the side walls and view the display through the opening, the probabilities are that ample reason would be found for complaining of glare. It is evident that the correct light- ing of the corner window open on two sides presents problems beyond those met with in illuminating the window open only to the front. In both in* stances the fundamental requirements are the same; the light must be on the goods rather than in the eyes of the observer. The problem in connection with lighting the corner ^vindow is to direct the light upon the goods without permitting it at the same time to strike the eyes of the observer or to oocasioft glare because of high reflecting sur- March 18, 1920 The Florists' Review ^* florists whos* cards avpaKr on tb* paces earryliic tbls liaad, ara praparad to flu ordaia — ' — from otbar florists tor local deliTcrr on tba nsnal basis. 105 SMYTH FOR CHICAGO The florists who have acquired this habit in send- ing orders into this city get for their customers the utmost the money will buy— in flowers and service.

Let us start by defining the requi- sites of good window illumination, hav- ing in mind particularly the points aris- ing in connection with the corner win- dow with two glassed sides. They are as follows: 1. What W€ must aim for in effect is a bright square of light falling upon the display plane of the window, and within which mercliandise will be clearly defined without too great a blank or waste above or on each side. 2. The brightness of the illumination should depend rather upon a thorough utilization of the light than upon a prodigal use of light. 3. The light must not be directed into the eyes of observers nor spilled upon the pavements. 4. The light sources must be con- cealed from the view of the observer. Now, it is evident that whatever dif- ficulty arises in connection with the correct illuminating of the corner win- dow over that of any other window will occur in accomplishing the conditions described by items three and four. That is due, of course, to the fact that the display is viewed from two vantage points at right angles one to the other. Visualizing tlie Problem. Imagine, for illustration, a square window having but one glass side. The lamps are, of course, in the upper por- tion of the window, above the glass. They are concealed from the observer and there is no possibility of the ob- server standing in front of such a win- March 18, 1920 The Florists' Review 107 ZJ^* noriaf wliMe cards appear on the pace* earrytnc thto head, are prepared to ttU orders ^'" ■— from otber llorleta for local dcUvery on tine u**'*! h-^*" "Jitu/Ji ii;a/^lou/erS, * Northwest Comer V'abash Avenue and Adams Street For all deliveries in CHICAGO Unexcelled facilities for Prompt Service Elevated and Surface Cars at Our Door We carry the largest and most complete stock of any store in the loop and our Ser- vice Is Unexcelled, as we are located in the heart of the leading hotel, theater and shopping district.

But, as suggested earlier, if the observer might step around lo the side of the window and view it through a hole knocked in the wall, there would be glare a-plenty and a view of the light sources themselves, too. The rea- son is obvious. When the observer stands before the glass in front of the window, the direction of vision cor- responds to the direction in which the light travels from its ^sou^c'o to the* goods. But when the observer steps round to the side of such a windo"- f- '' views it through a hole in the wall, the direction of vision is across that of the line of light travel.

Now, if all the light be directed from a source above one window it should then be evident that the lighting of the object which faces the opposite window will not be satisfactory. Half at least of that object will be in strong shadow. Each half of the display demands its own supply of light from a source or sources located with special reference to its needs. Only so is it possible to adequately illuminate the corner win- dow. But when that is done there is, then, every assurance that an observer standing before either window will be annoyed by the lights designed to il- luminate the display which faces the other window. Nevertheless, just that must be done if the display is to be satisfactorily illuminated. So it should be evident that the remedy is to be found in devising ways and means for shielding the light sources from the gaze of the observer rather than in dispensing with this or that source of light supply. Diyiding the Problem. The best plan, therefore, is to divide the problem under two heads. That is to say, first, decide the location of light sources so as to supply adequate illumination to both halves of the dis- play. Then devise means for shield- ing those sources from the gaze of the observer. The best method will be to make a diagram of your window and March 18, 1920 The Florists' Review 111 ?>»• Oorists whos* cards avpMtf on the pares osrrylnc tbls head, are prepared to fOI orders '"->— from other florists for local delivery on the neiuU basis.

They can be shielded from view just as readily as the over- head lights. Where the angle from which the •observer gets a view of the lamps is not too flat it frequently is only necessary -to employ deep reflectors to prevent the lamps from being seen by all ex- .eept those who ignore the display in •order to stare at the lamps. Those problems which cannot be solved by use of deep reflectors usually can be fluccessfully handled by use of balHe j)lates. Use of BafBe Plates.

The single baffle plate consists simply of a shield of metal or other material, of a size and shape admitting of its being so placed as to obstruct a direct view of the lamps. Baffle plates in series are placed picket- fence fashion before a row of lights, their success as an obstruction to a direct view of the lamps depending upon the distance apart ef the plates, as well as the width of the plates. Anyone who is familiar with the con- struction of a lattice shutter will readily grasp the idea of the baffle plates in series. The baffle plates should be painted the same color as the woodwork and finished in the same manner if pos- sible. So treated, their presence will hardly be noted by the ordinary ob- server interested in looking at the dis- play.

Having an understanding of the f'indamentals, it is simply a matter of itigenuity and common sense to arrange the lighting correctly. The variety of deflectors is ample for all requirements. Broadly speaking, there are three gen- eral types of reflectors equal to solving the utilization requirements of any dis- P'^y window. They are cut at various ^■'gles and apply as follows: (1) For .high windows of somewhat shallow "cpth, reflectors cut at an angle of '■•' degrees direct the light from the '"mp sharply downward, brightly il- luminating the foreground of the dis- play without spilling any of the light on the side wall. However, they per- mit enough light to reach the back- ground to illuminate a display of average height. This type also is suit- able for windows which are low and not too deep. But this reflector is not intended to direct the light to any great length toward the rear of the window. (2) The 30-degree reflector, on the other hand, is the proper one for either high or low windows of considerable depth. This type may be obtained in a variety of forms so that the background can be Uluminated to almost any degree of intensity desired. They also serve to cut off the light at any desired point above the line of trim. (3) The 45- degree reflector is best for use in deep windows; it throws the light well back and to a considerable height up on the background. Frequently it is necessary to make use of all three types of re- flectors in illuminating the wdndow, combining them according to the re- quirements. SERVICE SUCCEEDS.

Whatever sta- tion you occupy, however humble your position, remember that, as a repre- sentative, the closer you come in con- tact with customers the surer you are to succeed. You should act the pro- prietor— be the proprietor, and serve those whom you are called on to serve, as he himself would serve them. Business today revolves around the customer and the character and quality of the service rendered to the customer regulate the success of the business. This is true in all lines, wherever there is something to sell. It depends on the service which the business itself or the goods sold yield, whether the customer becomes an enthusiastic advertiser for the goods you sell, or is forever con- demning the firm and its wares. Someone has asked, "What consti- tutes good service?" Taking the re- tail florist's efforts for example, it means selling good quality stock, repre- senting the goods to the prospect ex- actly as they are, so that the buyer will not have a wrong idea of what he is getting and expect too much. Es- ])ccially is this true of the lower-priced flowers and it frequently leads to an unfortunate misunderstanding. Sales- men, in their zeal to close a sale, will sometimes exaggerate the value or the quality, with the outcome that the cus- tomer is disappointed and condemns the store. But if certain common-sense rules are chservcd, then you may almost say that you are on the right track. Here are some fine points of success in the retail florists' business: Appearance and stability. Aggressiveness and progressiveness. hlint, Michigan ORDERS EFFICIENTLY HANDLED ery^^^RisT Member Especially strong on F.T.D.

If we understand that besides mak- ing a living we are building a character, then we have made a great step for- ward. Good service is an important factor in building up a business, and it is t'K' duty of every employee to impress upon himself that he is the leader when it comes to a question of good service GETTING THE ODD JOBS DONE- The manager of a highly successful retail store has adopted a plan for March 18, 1920 The Florists^ Review 115 The Oorlats whose cards appear on tlie pagres oarrylnB tbis head, are prepared to fill orders from other florists for local delivery on the usual basis. - Omaha cind all h.astern Nebraska HRSS & SWOBODA F.

But often, if all the clerks ^v^Te busy at the time, such a job would ^''i' his memory. Consequently it was 'iPt done when it should have been, and •'"''' this manager could not spend all his time about the store, he was not always at hand when these little jobs might have been attended to. Now he has no more trouble. He has a box, which is divided into two compartments, fastened to the doorsill just outside the office door, and as he goes about tlie store he makes a note on a card of anything he finds that should be attended to. He drops the cards into one of the compartments of the box, and the clerks have been instructed to watch this box for things the manager wants done whenever they have a little time to spare. A person who has a little time on his hands takes a card from the box. When he has completed the task he signs his name to the card and returns it to the box, depositing it in the other com- partment. Through this plan this manager gets the odd jobs done without taxing his memory with them; neither does he 116 The Florists' Review March 18, 1020 Th« florist* whose eaids avp«ar on tlio pakos earrylnc fliia lioad, aro provwod to AH ordor* ""^■7.

He is free to devote his time and attention to more important mat- ters. By having each one sign the card when he has completed a job, he can tell just which members of the force are most inclined to cooperate with the management, for there are always some who are inclined to "lay down on the job ' ' if the boss isn 't watching, let- ting the more willing ones do the work. Those on the staff of this store are unconscious of the part this little system plays in their promotion, yet the man- ager is rather inclined to favor those who apparently find time to get more of these jobs done than the others and Still keep their sales records up to the mark. The jobs are not always the most desirable, of course, and if one is inclined to be a shirker he will keep busy at some other trifling thing until others have done all the manager's special tasks. NATIONAL PUBIJCITY CAMPAIGN. Electros Going Up. There has been a good demand for the new Easter and Mothers' day news- paper electrotypes illustrated in the January issue of the Journal of the S. A. F. Their use will link up well with F. T. D. mS. 1918 CHERRY ST. the advertisements for these days ap- pearing in the magazines. The electro- types are designed so that a business card or other matter can be added to them by the newspaper compositors without injuring the general effect. Florists who have not availed them- selves of the various electrotypes of the promotion bureau should send in their orders to the secretary without delay, as April 1 the electrotype founders will adopt a new scale of prices, due to the high rate of wages they are now called upon to pay. These prices will be in the neighborhood of 100 per cent in advance of the prices we are now paying, as we are buying upon a contract placed long ago which hau allowed our prices to re- main unchanged despite the fact thst the foundry quotations have advanced within the last year. Florists are also reminded that our series No. 2 lantern slides contains a slide for Easter. All who use the mov- ing picture houses for their local ad' vertising should have this series.

Orders for several of these signs have been re- ceived recently and shipments are made from the factory as fast as the orders are received. Hundreds of florists have locations upon their establishments which would suit a billboard installation admirably. The cost of a sign, $50, should not stand in the way of an in- stallation. The slogan, "Say It with Flowers," exerts a tremendous power and when used in this form is of great advantage to the publicity campaign. We are still waiting to hear from those florists who have not yet sub- scribed to the campaign fund. Their apathy is hard to understand. A move- ment destined to put money in their pockets, and already doing it, is not being supported by them. It is no lot- tery. It is an investment and good re- turns must surely result. One of our enthusiasts recently said, "Through this campaign the florists are doing what they should have done years ago, what other producers have been doing and are still doing — advertising their products. Some concerns are advertis- ing for a market for their products be- fore they build the establishments to manufacture them. The florists have 1 NEW ORLEANS, LA CHAS.

Edward Bulwer once said that the man who is capable of generating en- thusiasm can't be whipped. This is be- ing ably typified by our past-president, J. Fred Ammann, in his endeavor to do things that will benefit every grower in the United States and Canada and eventually help everyone connected with flowers and their development and sale. Our publicity campaign gave Fred Ammann the inspiration; he saw the way we were receiving onr funds for the campaign and saw also the future possi- bilities in the industry, if given proper support. Perhaps the first suggestion he received came from studying some of the advertising problems that con- fronted other businesses and the bene- fits which they enjoyed by using proper methods and meeting their obligations in a businesslike way.

This would give us the right start and everybody affiliating him- self with his own group would benefit greatly by this idea. Here is a man who by past experience saw the possibilities of the future and is endeavoring to give the best that is in him for an object that will greatly benefit everybody that joins hands in the movement and who will eventually organize growers in every locality into local growers' associations wherever possible.

He will, however, be in harness for the Easter rush. Edward Buechel, of the Biessen Floral Co., has been confined to his bed for the last nine weeks. At last reports he was (juite sick. The Acme Flower Shop furnished several large decorations for new shop openings in the new Arcade building, in which the firm is located, and reports satisfactory business since the opening. Counter trade is booming with the St. Louis Seed Co., the American Seed Co. and the Schislcr-Corneli Seed Co., with f^ood prospects for a heavy season's business. J. F. Ammann and H.

Wid- mer, of Highland, 111.; George Madsen, of Alton, 111., and Edwin Deuker, of St. Charles, Mo., were visitors March 11 in the wholesale district and attended the club meeting in the afternoon. Charles Hahn, manager of the east side branch of Grimm & Gorly, reports that trade has kept up well so far dur- ing Lent. The Pieper Floral Co., the Bentzen, P"'loral Co. and Mullanphy, Florists, on North Grand avenue, report good steady trade and are enthusiastic regarding Easter prospects.

Cut stock of all kinds has held up to holiday prices all winter, but it is scarcely likely that there will be any shortage the rest of this season. No doubt prices will be stiffer for Easter. Various Notes. William G. Haynes, opposite the Edson cemetery, is having many orders for funeral work. He states that he has had greatly increased sales of cut flowers for table use and other some- what similar purposes recently and he attributes them to prohibition. He has been unsuccessful in Us quest for ge- raniums, having had his checks sent back on several occasions. James L. Kenney, of Central street, is using a large advertisement in the daily papers featuring potted plants, such as rubbers, ferns, begonias, etc. He is offering fine roses, sweet peas, carnations and marguerites and reports an excellent business.

Kendel, OleTeland, O. CohD weather has retarded calls for seeds. Paper for the fall catalogues is going to cost more than did that for the spring editions. The oflBcial roster of the H. G. Hast- ings Co., Atlanta, Ga., is: President, H. G. Hastings; vice-president, H. W. Brown ^secretary, B. F. Lyon; treasiurer, W. F. Woottan. Chaeles N. Page, formerly president of the Iowa Seed Co., ex-president of the American Seed Trade Association, has sold out his greenhouse interests at Den- ver and retired for a second time. Some of the factors that have tended to keep the price of timothy seed from soaring during the last two years to the same extent as that of red and alsike clover and alfalfa are the accumulation of stocks of timothy seed since the large crop of 1916, the increased demand for food crops and decreased demand for grass seeds and the failure of the export demand to meet the expectations of many concerns in the seed trade. Those who are well posted on the bean growing industry say that a situation now exists in relation to the 1919 crop which has no counterpart in the history of the Turlock, Cal., district. Never before since they began growing the product there have the stocks in storage been re- duced so low. A careful survey discloses that of the 1919 crop of the Lady Wash- ingtons, the standard variety grown, there are only 1,000 sacks in the warehouses of the district — one large carload. Five thousand sacks of Blackeyes are being held by a San Francisco firm, but aside from this one lot there are only about 600 sacks — one small carload. Of the Mex- ican Keds there are only 600 sacks — one small carload — and of Teparies, 300 sacks. There are still some small hold- ings of 1918 and 1917 crops, but these are considered practically worthless. CABBAGE SEED CROP DAMAGED. The commercial cabbage seed crop in the Puget sound district has been se- verely damaged this winter by freezing before the plants had been covered. The total acreage reported harvested in this section in 1919 was 1,524 acres, and preparations were made for a similar acreage for harvest in 1920. Although some growers are reluctant to make definite statements as to the extent of the damage or possible number of acres they will be able to put out this season from the surviving plants, the indica- tions are that about eighty-three per cent of the plants were destroyed and that only about 260 acres will be plant- ed from the remaining seventeen per cent. The cabbage plants for seed produc- tion on Long Island were buried in trenches and well prepared for the win- ter before hard freezing occurred and, although the winter has been a severe one, the plants are believed to be in good condition. The month of March is the most critical time in this section, however, and it is obviously impossible for growers to estimate the final dam- Tested Proven Seeds Early View of Oar Trial Ground* Did you ever sow Peacock's Flower Seeds?

Against Western Mail Order Firms. A letter which may easily have un- fortunate results for the trade was sent out February 3 to all the farm bureau county agents of New York state by M. T. Munn, assistant botanist of the New York agricultural experiment sta- tion, at Geneva, of which W. H. Jordan is director. In this letter, while it is rightly urged that the real evil of the untrustworthy mail order house which deals in seeds of poor and uncertain quality be called to the attention of buyers who otherwise might not be suf- ficiently discriminating, yet the vague ness of the terms employed would tend to prejudice such buyers against all mail order houses outside their own state. Attention has been called to this warning, as well as to ways in which such a letter can be misused, by W. F. Therkildson, formerly adver- tising and sales manager of the W. Vtlee Burpee Co. and now manager of he agricultural division of the adver sing agency of N. W. Ayer & Son. Mr. Munn's letter to the county Agents is as follows: Last sprinB tlio county ancnt in encli county rendered valuable service by warninfr farmers against purcliasing seeds from certain mail order BeereS('iitM ■ fions.

Mr. Therkildson received a circular from a New York state seedsman who inclosed a copy of Mr. Munn's letter, thus attempting to build up his own trade by arousing antagonism against all seed dealers outside of New York state, through the use of a letter written with a quite different object. It is just as unfortunate for a state ofS.cial to exclude legitimate trade from his state by vague and misused . warnings as to exclude it by an unduly severe quarantine, though his intentions may be of the best in each case. In the following letter to Mr Munn, dated March 9, Mr. Therkildson called the srtate botanist's attention to the need of specific terms in such a warn- ing: There hag Just come to my attention one of your letters of February 3 addressed to farm bureau agents and county agents, in which you refer to the advertisements and claims of certain middle west mail order seed houses. You are perfectly justified in sending out the advice you have, and no one knows It better than myself, for I was for many years adver- tising and sales manager ef the W. Atlee Burpee Co., and also active in the alTaIrs of the American Seed Trade Association. However, the majority of the mail order houses in the middle west have the highest ideals and standards and, as two or three of these happen to be clients of N. W. Ayer & Son, we are naturally much interested in their protection and their rights. And I am writing you this letter to express my opinion that it would be wise for you to be specific in the names of the concerns. Of course I Iinow to whom you refer and I believe that most of the men in the seed business Icnow to whom you refer, but the customers to whom the seedsmen must loolt for income are not familiar witli tlie names of these concerns and consequently all seed bouses outside of your state come into the same class. It is true that you qualify this in the last paragraph of your letter, but the tendency on the part of every mall order buyer, after reading your letter or being advised by the county agent, would be to distrust all such concerns unless specific names are mentioned. Tou can readily appreciate that this is manifestly nnfair in the case of concerns which are doing a high-class, legitimate business. This matter has also been brought to the attention of the officers of the American Seed Trade Association and of various other individuals who are in a position to see that the interests of reliable seed firms, in the middle west and elsewhere, receive proper protec- tioQ. CHECK AS SETTLEMENT. A sale of seed corn furnished the basis of the suit of Frank vs. Frost, 174 Northwestern Reporter 911, decided by the Wisconsin Supreme court.

The corn ten- dered failed to come up to the required test and there was some negotiation looking to the acceptance of it at a re- duced price, but plaintiff never took possession of the corn, although it was left at a certain place for him. The defendant, claiming that the mat- ter had been adjusted under the nego- tiations referred to, sent the plaintiff a check for $44, bearing on its face the words, ' ' For difference on seed corn and bags." The plaintiff retained the check for three months, without cashing it, and then offered to return it, demanding re- payment of the full $110 paid by him in advance as the price of the corn to be delivered under the original con- tract. He then sued for the $110, and the Wisconsin Supreme court upholds his right to recover, as against a con- tention made by the defendant that re- tention of the check constituted a final settlement which could not afterwards be upset without mutual consent. "Had the check been cashed," said the court, "and the money retained by plaintiff, there would have been force in the defendant's contention." S. IMPORTS OF GRASS SEED.

Tlie present price at which cowpeas are being quoted by shippers and deal- ers rejiresents an almost unheard-of val- uation for this commodity. The .short crop of cowpeas in 1919, states t)ie Market Reporter, of the De- partment of Agriculture, togetlier with the small carry-over of the 1918 crop July 1, 1919, has resulted in a commer- cial supply this season which is little more than one-half that of last season. Altlinngh the production of cowpeas in 1919 was less than in 1918, the fact that the carry-over in seedsmen's hands Julv 1, 1919, was only 2,000,000 pounds, as comjtared with 9,800,000 July 1, 1918, doubtless is an equally important factor affecting the present commercial supply.

Taking these facts into consideration and granting that the law of supply and demand ordinarily controls prices, it might seem to some that an abnormally high price is inevitable. There is, how- ever, another factor which logically should affect the price of cowpeas,Vnd which should not be overlooked, namely, the supply of velvet beans available for seed purposes. It is true that velvet beans cannot be grown in many states where cowpeas are ordinarily grown, but it is also true that practically the en- tire acreage of velvet beans is to be found in those states having the largest acreage of cowpeas. In the latter area velvet beans bear practically the same relationship to the local system of farm- ing as cowpeas. Last spring the commercial supply of new-crop (1918 grown) cowpeas was not sufficient to supply the planting de- mand. Even with the large carry-over of old-crop cowpeas, most of which was sold for seed purposes, many farmers were unable to obtain cowpeas for planting, and the wholesale selling price advanced from $5.50 per hundred pounds in the middle of February, 1919, to $7.50 per hundred pounds the latter Eart of May. With reference to velvet cans, the commercial quantity of new- crop seed of good germination available last spring was negligible, and this com- modity sold at around $8.50 per hun- dren pounds during the month of May, the highest price since velvet beans have been of commercial importance in the south. The quality of the 1919 crop of velvet beans is good, and the commercial sup- ply available for seed purposes this season is ample to meet all reasonable demands. At the usual rate of seeding, a given quantity of velvet beans has a planting capacity four times that of cowpeas. On this basis of the relative planting capacity of each, the combined commercial supply of cowpeas and vel- vet beans available for seed this year is about ten per cent larger than the com- mercial supply of these commodities last ▼ear. The ratio of the commercial sup- ^y of cowpeas to velvet beans, ex- pressed in terms of the planting capac- ity of each at the usual rate of seeding, was, in 1918, 5 to 2 and in 1919, 10 to 3, while in 1920 it is about 3 to 5. Seedsmen's average wholesale selling price for velvet beans February 28, 1920, was around $6 per hundred pounds for recleaned stock and for cowpeas about $11 per hundred pounds. This is about fifteen per cent higher for vel- vet beans and one hundred per cent higher for cowpeas than on the same lily of the Valley Pips Extra Selected German Type Just a few cases left which we offer at reduced price to clean up 2500 Pips to the Case, per 1000, $30.00 DUTCH BULBS Write us for our special prices VAN MEEUWEN & TEGELAAR 1133 Broadway NEW YORK Nurseries: Lisse, Holland Mention The Berlew when yon write.

F. W. Xelsey Nursery Co., New York, N. Y. — An Illustrated lolder, containing a special ■wholesale list of ornamental stock, both decid- uous and evergreen. Seedlings and other small Ktock are included. Fanner Seed Sc Nursery Co., Faribault, Minn. —An Illustrated, 128-page catalogue. It is com- pactly printed and is comprehensive in both seed and nursery departments. Grains and other field seeds have special prominence in the book. The cover is printed in colors by the offset process. Conard & Jones Co., West Grove, Pa. — An il- lustrated catalogue of "Star Brand" roses, can- uas, perennials, shrubs, small fruits, miscella- neous plants, flower seeds, bulbs and garden requisites; a 52-page book of the unfailingly ac- curate and attractive "C. & J." type. The de- sign on the front cover, showing a pink rose -with the trade-mark star as a background, is both striking and tasteful. Perhaps it is scarcely necessary to add that roses and cannas are spe- cialties. Thomas J. Grey Co., Boston, Mass. — A well- printed catalogue; illustrated, 114 pages, in a neat black and white cover. Although seeds have first place In the book— first in order and in other respects — yet the plantsman's and nurs- eryman's lines are also well represented. Aquatics might be mentioned as a specialty. Notably large stocks of implements and supplies are listed. The first six pages are occupied by novelties and specialties in flower and vegetable seeds. Allen, Sterling & Xothrop, Portland. Me.— "Sterling Quality" seeds, bulbs, roots, flowering and vegetable plants, implements and sundries; an illustrated, well-printed catalogue, in a de- cidedly tasteful gray-green cover. The lists of dairy and poultry supplies, and of tools and equipments for garden, farm and greenhouse, are particularly comprehensive; in fact, these classes of merchandise occupy about half of the total eighty pages In the book. James Viok's Sons. Rochester, N. Y.— "Vlck's Aster Book for Florists," a book of twenty good- sized pages, devoted entirely to asters. It is printed on enameled paper, is well illustrated and contains clear descriptions. "This," says the company, "is the age of the specialist. For many varieties of seed we contract with men who grow them better than we could. In asters we have specialized longer, introduced more va- rieties and grown more seed than any other seedsmen in America." St. Joseph, Mo. — A 125-foot steel smokestack at the greenhouses of the Stuppy Floral Co., Ashland boulevard and Lovers Lane, was blown down March 4. Several sections of the es- tablishment were wrecked and the dam- age to the stock is placed by Frank Stuppy, president of the company, at $15,000. About 1,100 rose plants and 900 palms were ruined by the cold, but by shutting off the connected houses about 80,000 other plants were saved.

Elindwobth, 3032 Main street, Kansas City, Mo., is the successor to the Blue Valley Nursery Co. The California Nursery Co., of Niles, Cal., one of the largest nurseries in the state, has opened a depot in Oakland, .Cal., and is extending its business into the metropolitan district of the bay sec- tion. The official roster of the Des Moines Nursery Co., Des Moines, la., is as fol- lows: President and generid manager, J. W. HUl; first vice-president, M. Mc- Farlin; second vice-president, H. E. Teachout; secretary. Earl D. Needham; treasurer, D. L. HiU. "We are depending more every year on other forms of publicity supplementary to our catalogue, to increase sales among the class of prospective buyers who want stock but are not experienced enough to select their stock personally," states Ernest F. Coe, president of the Elm City Nursery Co., New Haven, Conn. And nurserymen everywhere are learning the sales power of printers' ink. Approximately 2,000,000 common bar- berry bushes were dug up and destroyed during 1919 in connection with the com- bined efforts of federal and state author- ities to protect wheat against black stem rust, which can not survive unless it is able to spend one period in its life cycle on the leaves of the common barberry. For this work last year the federal gov- ernment appropriated $150,000. The ter- ritory in which the fight was carried on comprises Colorado, Indiana, Illinois, Iowa, Ohio, Michigan, Minnesota, Mon- tana, Nebraska, North Dakota, South Da- kota, Wisconsin and Wyoming. CEBTIFTINO SALES. By State or National Association. The question, "Should the Illinois State Nurserymen's Association certify to sales made by its members?" really includes two questions: First, should any nurserymen's association certify the sales by its members? Second, should the state association be the body which certifies to such sales? My answer to the first question would be in the affirmative, because by such certification we can most effectually An address entitled, "Should the Illinois State Nurserymen's Association Certify the Sales Made by Members?" delivered by Alvin Nelson, of Chicago, at the convention of the Illinois State Nurserymen's Association in Chicago. combat the harm that has been done to the nursery business in general by the bad practices of a few unscrupulous men. These bad practices have thrown discredit on our trade and unless the nurserymen as a body clean up their house the government will do it for them. The public is certainly entitled to protection from some source and it is the duty of the government to furnish that protection wherever necessary. Do not suppose that the nursery bnsi* ness has been singled out as specially in need of government control. The government has safeguarded the x>ublie from possible abuses in many other businesses. Banks are controlled for the safety of the depositors. Investment companies are under government super- vision. Many professions and lines of business are required to take out licenses after passing rigid examinations. Among such are doctors, dentists, law- yers, insurance companies, architects, engineers and plumbers. Indnstflo^ such as the packers, are rigidly inspected and then licensed for the benefit of the public. Protection for the PnrcliaBer. Now the question arises as to what protection the purchaser is entitled to against possible abuses in the nursery business. 1. — ^He is entitled to the assuranc« that he is getting the variety of plant which he orders. 2. — ^He is entitled to be safeguarded against receiving plants that are dis- eased or infested with insftt pests. 3. — He is entitled to receive plants which are furnished with sufficient roets and are handled with sufficient care to make them grow.

Certain states have passed laws in- tended to safeguard the purchaser in the particulars just mentioned, but the framers of those laws, in their eagerness to protect the public, have made them 80 drastic that nurserymen are unable to operate under them. It is believed, however, that, if the nurserymen in one of their own associations could furnish ample protection to the public, such draistic laws would not be made in the future; that those now on the statute books might be repealed, and, what is of greatest importance, that the confi- dence of the public would be strength- ened and the planting of trees would greatly increase. How shall we as nurserymen accom- plish thisf As the conditions are na- tional in range and not local, it seems to me that it ought to be dealt with nationally and not locally. We are all members — or at least should be — of both our state association and our na- tional association. I therefore believe that the state association ought not to enter this work, but that we ought to support heartily the movement for this purpose which is already being dis- cussed in the national association. Bonds and Sales Restrictions. A suggestion has been made that the national association certify to the gen- uineness of every purchase from any of its members; to this I would add that it should certify that it will return the purchase price for any plant sold which is not true to name, or which is dis- eased in any way or has insufficient roots. It might be objected that the asso- ciation would be involving itself in a large financial obligation to so certify the sales of its members and I agree that it ought not to undertake this re- sponsibility without previously having received a bond from each member, to make good any loss which may be in- curred by the association on hia busi- ness. If this is done, there ought not to be any great danger in making the experiment and certainly a national body could exploit by means of a pub- licity campaign this service to the pub- lic, in such a way that each member would receive full benefit from it. This can be done by the national body at far less expense than if each individual nurseryman attempted to do it for him- self. The objection has also been made that certifying to the genuineness of all sales would be a boon to the crooks in the nursery business at the expense of the li«nest nurserymen. This objection would be partly met by the bond which I suggest that the national body should require from each of its members to SOME GOOD CONIFERS STILL IN FAIR SUPPLY AT DUNDEE Strong, thrifty, home-grown stock.

OHIO plish the purpose of protecting the con- sumer and at the same time develop and strengthen the nursery industry. Common sense tells us that the laws controlling other industries must have been drawn up by parties who knew all the details of the business to be con- trolled. For instance, laws on banking must have been drawn up by bankers, laws on insurance by insurance men, etc., and these industries have flourished more since such laws were passed than in the old days of wild-cat banking. Grower to Consumer. It matters little if we have to change our mode of doing business. If the busi- ness itself grows, we are sure to profit individually, even though we have to reconstruct our methods entirely. One plan that suggests itself is a law pro- hibiting the rehandling of fruit trees. There might be as many selling agencies as necessary for selling the trees to the ultimate consumer, but when the sale is made, the tree itself goes direct from the grower to the consumer. The con- sumer then knows whom to make re- sponsible. This plan would involve ad- vertising the name of the producer rather than the selling organization. There are many precedents for this and, from an advertising point of view, it has advantages. Practically all cloth- ing is sold in this way. The names of various brands of clothing are adver- tised from one end of the country to the other and the stores selling those brands, although entirely independent of the manufacturer, still have the ad- vantage of the advertising. The point I wish to make is that if we have a problem we should study and solve it in one way or another and not wait to have a solution made by others. Nursery associations have for years had legislative committees. These commit- tees, it seems to me, have been merely watchdogs for the purpose of opposing and modifying legislation, but it is now time for us to have a legislative com- mittee which will propose constructive measures for the benefit, not only of the public, but of the nurserymen as well.

But even the most skillful veteran finds help in the convenience and dependability of the Morehead Back-to-Boiler System. He knows that with this inexpensive equipment installed in his plant he can always be sure of a uniform growing temperature— that he will never again be bothered with a messy steam pump. Easily attached to your present boiler room apparatus, the "More- head" System Eliminates Sluggish Circohtion In Your Steam Lines at once — and thereby gives you absolute control of temperature in your greenhouses the whole year 'round. The condensation itself is immediately returned to the boilers as feed water while it is pure and hot — thus saving a large per cent of your fuel. To get pictures and data which show how other florists are using the "Morehead" System to help grow prize-winning stock, simply write for your free copy of the latest Back-to-Boiler Book.

I have two houses, one 22x120 feet and one 22x110 feet, running north and south. There is no gable on the north end, where the boiler house is. On the south end the glass is six feet from the ground. The east side has two feet and the west side three feet of glass above lour feet from the floor. The ridge is thirteen feet high. I use a hot water system and have two boilers, one with a grate 24x36 inches and one with a grate 24x48 inches. They are connected and stand on the floor. The houses drop three or four feet from the south to the north end. The pipes run uphill to the south end and the returns from the south to the north end, as the north end is the lower. I should like to keep a heat of 55 degrees in zero weather, but so far I have not been successful. How large should the smokestack be? A 2%-inch main runs across both houses and from this I have six 2-inch flow pipes and ten 2-inch returns and also two 1^4 -inch flows and four 1^4 -inch returns. The flows are two feet above the boiler, going up, and the returns are level with the boiler inlets. As the boilers have a 4-inch outlet and inlet, I used 2-inch pipe direct to and from the boilers. My main return, 2i^-inch, also runs across the houses, but is reduced to 2-inch at the boilers. All the pipes are hanging on the three rows of posts, be- cause I have all solid beds. I have two return mains, one 2-inch and one 2^- inch. The returning water is too slow. H. B.— Mo. Although it is not stated, I infer that the houses are connected and that one house has two feet of glass in its east wall and the other has three feet in its west wall. It is doubtful about the number of return mains. In one place the inquiry speaks of a 2 ^^ -inch return and in an- other it states that there are two re- turn mains, one of which is 2-inch. If there is but one 2%-inch flow pipe for the two houses, this accounts in part for the difliculty; even one 2^-inch flow pipe for each house would not be sufilcient. I should use at least 3-inch flows and should run one to each house. It would even be better to use 3%-ineh '.r 4 inch flows, especially if it is a num- giiiiniiiniiniiiiiiiiDiniiiiiiiioiiiinnHiDuiuminiatiiNiiiiiiouniiiuuaiuuiiiiiioinniiiiio^ Heat f Bulletin I I On that Boiler Prob- | lem — we invite a | consultation. | Bernhard Boilers | will satisfy your most | strenuous demands. § "Built for Service" § Send postal for Catalogae "I" 9 Remember the § Lowest Watek Line, i I 101 P.rk Ave., KANAWHA MFG.

The main returns should be of the same size. For each house I should use three 2%- inch overhead flow pipes, running one below each purlin and the other below the ridge. If possible they should run downhill, with a slope of one foot in twenty feet. There should be at least seven 2-inch returns in each house; one more return in each house would be de- sirable if they are much exposed. While I do not like to use 1%-inch pipe for houses over 100 feet in length, three 114-inch returns may be substituted for three 2-inch ones. It will be possible to carry two of the returns in each house on the sides of the beds or on the purlin posts. It is a mistake to carry the return pipes on a level with the return inlets. It is preferable to sink the boiler so that it will be below the level of the returns, although when the flows are overhead and the returns are carried well up on the walls and purlin posts, a fairly good circulation can be secured. The two small boilers are amply large enough to heat the houses to 50 degrees. These require a chimney fifteen inches in diameter and thirty-five feet high.

SEATTLE NOTES [Continued from page 90.] houses. Carnations are arriving in bet- ter condition, both as to keeping quali- ties and strength of stem. The color has improved as the result of several weeks of sunshine and local growers are supplying almost enough to stop outside buying of orders. The cut of or- chids is still less than recent averages, but enough to fill all orders comforta- bly. There has been a steady increase in the supply of lilies of the valley. Gar- denias are still scarce and high. There are more than enough lilies in the local territory to care for the expected Easter demands, but it is doubtful if more than half of the stock will be blooming by that time. The brighter shades of tulips and hyacinths have been selling freely and it is these offerings vs'hich have done a great deal to keep potted stock among the sales leaders. The double tulips in pink and the singles in red have been used heavily in baskets. Mignonette has been another big seller. Several dealers have fea- tured potted cinerarias recently to good effect. Jonquils are in large supply. These have sold more freely as cut flowers during the last fortnight. The Japanese growers are reported to have determined on the minimum prices which they will charge and there^ is some talk among the florists of taking similar action to protect themselves by deciding on what would be a fair price and ordering from California in case the local growers do not meet this flg- ure. The local Japanese growers prob- ably will supply about half of the crop and no trouble is .'inticipated with the other growers. P. T. C. GEORGE KELLER POTTERY CO. Sncceaaori to GEO.

Mr. Joseph says that bon voyage baskets are selling' fast, as the traveling season is just beginning. These baskets are a well known specialty of the shop and sell at from $7.50 to $25 each. They contain seasonable fresh fruits, pre- serves, imported chocolates, candy and glazed fruits and are decorated in va- rious artistic ways. The trade learned with sincere regret of the death of Alfred Cuneo, who was connected with the Art Floral Co. as special decorator during the last year or two. Prior to that Mr. Cuneo was employed by Joseph's. He died early last week after an illness of several w^eeks. He is survived by his widow and one small daughter. G. "W.

Associated with him in the business is "Bab" Pagano, formerly with Peli- cano, Eossi & Co. The shop is attrac- tively fitted up in a pale shade of gray. Generous windows allow good display facilities and an excellent stock of both cut and potted flowers has been put in.

It's the same with a Greenhouse; you know it needs repairs here and there, you know that a few gallons of PERMANITE would make that old house better than new, but old Doc Procras- tination will sometimes make you put it off from time to time. Result — a leaky house, a lot of new sashbars, a lot of time gone to waste and probably a lot of valuable stock gone, too. Be wise — think of the old proverb and order your supply of PERMANITE today SURE.

OELSCHIG. CARL H. OELSCHIG. When A. C. Oelschig & Sons, of Savannah, Georgia, wanted to standardize its plant, its managers called in the logical company to do the work — the AGMCO. In going over the plant the AGMCO engineers found that it would be necessary to build every type of AGMCO house to finish out the range, and so the work of adding to or extending almost every make of greenhouse is now going forward. The managers of A. C. Oelschig & Sons have given other makes of greenhouses a thorough trial, and they have studied AGMCO designs, construction and performance thoroughly, weighing them against the designs, construc- tion and performance of other houses. And the result ? Well, the AGMCO has the contract to finish and standardize the range. Get the point? nc i mc (_ D /1g enico jm Sales Offices: New York Chicago Kansas City Pana, III. Seattle, Wash.

WERTHEIMER BROTHERS THE NATIONAL FLORAL RIBBON HOUSE Owners and Operators of WERBRO RIBBON MFG. CO.. Paterton, N. J. Office and Salesroom, 17-25 East 24Ui Street, NEW YORK ||>CV' PLANS FOR BUILDING CONCRETE BENCHES The perennial interest in concrete benches is stronger than ever in these times of high prices of lumber and other materials. The simplicity of the plans employed by the grower who explains them below made a quick appeal when presented in brief by him in The Review a short time ago. ENEWED interest has been R shown of late by the trade in the practicability of concrete benches, which has been the subject of a good deal of discussion from time to time before. I have been growing car- nations, chrysanthemums, violets, etc., in benches of concrete for five years. The stock pro- duced has been excellent in quality and there has been absolutely no expense for repairs. The expense of construc- tion, after the forms have been made, is less per running foot than for cypress benches and the forms themselves may be used repeatedly. One Cast in Six Hours. In casting my benches, I use a form of simple construction and set it with- out the aid of a single stake or sup- port. Three men can take the form from one bench, 5x150 feet, and erect it for another in one day, after digging out for the feet of the bench, and five men and a m^xer can cast the bench in one day; we cast one in six hours. In order that others may have as little trouble as possible in constructing con- crete benches for themselves, T am de- scribing in detail the method which I have found most successful, giving figures for a bench twenty-four inches high, five feet wide and fifty feet long. The dimensions can easily be clianged to fit any size of bench. For every 4-foot section of bench. By FRED W. ARNOLD. procure from the lumber mill the fol- lowing: Eight pieces, %x6xl8 inches, for legs. Two pieces, %x6x60 inches, for sides of crossbeam. One piece, %x5x38 inches, for bottom of crossbeam'. Two pieces, %x8iX> inches, ten inches wide at the top and seven inches wide at the bottom, for ends of crossbeam. Six pieces, %xl0x39i/> inches, and two pieces, 2x2x62 inches; these eight pieces for the bottom form. A 50-foot bench will require thirteen sets of legs and crossbeams and twelve full sections of bottom forms. Also procure from the lumber mill: Two pieces, %xl2x60 inches, for the sections at the two ends of the bench. 110 lineal feet, %x9i/o inches, for out- side forms for sides. 110 lineal feet, %x6% inches, for in- side forms for sides. Six pieces, %xliX!xr)0 inches, to be used as ^tay braces across top of side forms every eight feet. Nailing Together. Now nail firmly together two o>^ the leg pieces, side to edge, using three 8- penny nails, and half nail two of these pairs together, making a box 5x5x18 inches and open at both ends. To half nail, leave about three-eighths of the nail exposed, so that it can be withdrawn with a claw hammer or bar. Cut the ends of the crossbeams at an angle of forty-five degrees, so that when the legs are placed they will be six inches under the bench, safe from the toes of anyone later^ working at the bench. A glance at the drawing presented on this page will make this and similar points clear. The fact that the end pieces for the crossbeam form are ten inches at the top and seven inches at the bottom will make the sides of the crossbeam beveled downward one and one-half inches in six inches. Nail the bottom of the crossbeam form to one side, centers cor- responding; nail the end pieces to this side; half nail the other side to the bottom, and half nail the ends to the last side. Ten inches from either end of the bottom boards nail the 2x2 pieces and see that this bottom sheet is square; the bottom squares will come loose more easily if beveled to corre- spond to the sides of the crossbeam forms. Base on Solid Ground. When all the forms are ready, stretch a line along where one side of the bench is to come, but seven-eighths of an inch lower than the under side is to be when completed. Allowing one foot for the overhang of the end of the bench, fix the location of the feet and dig down until* solid ground is renched, whether four inches or four feet. Fill these holes with concrete made of one part cement, three parts sand and five j)arts cinders. Tamp well o Wo solid earth.

Arnold's Plans. V :■" 20 The Florists^ Review March 25, 1920 and set leg forms on these footers. Place beam form on leg forms so that the opening in the bottom of the beam form comes over the opening of the leg forms, giving a little room for the bottom of the beam form to clear the finished leg when the forms are being removed. Do not nail the leg forms and beam form together, as the weight will hold them. Having in place two sets of these leg and beam forms, which should be level across the bench, place a bottom form on them, allowing one-quarter of an inch from the end of the bottom form to the inside of the beam form; nail the bottom form to the beam forms with 4-penny nails. After enough sec- tions are placed to take a length of side forms, half nail the side forms to the edge of the bottom forms, using two 8-penny nails to each section and nail- ing over the 2x2 sill. Proceed in this way to the end of the bench, splicing the side forms by nailing lightly a piece of board over each joint on the outside. Casting the Bencli. We are now ready to ca^ the bench. Screen cinders through a screen made of 1-inch mesh wire netting. Use one part cement, two parts sand and four parts cinders. Mix the concrete to a pasty consistency, but do not * ' drown. ' ' Wheel it right over the form, which can easily support that weight, using boards for wheeling planks over the beam forms. Fill the leg forms by tamp- ing with a sharpened broom handle or something similar. Put about one inch of concrete in the bottom of the beam form and put in two pieces of barbed wire long enough to reach from leg to leg and down in the legs two or more inches. Fill up the beam form and pro- ceed to half the length of the bench. Place woven wire netting six feet wide for a 5-foot bench over the forms that are filled, so that it extends six inches up the sides and ends. Wheel in the comsrete as before, shoveling it out, placing it and tamping and trowel- ing as you go. We use for a tamper a block 2x8x10 inches, with a handle stuck in a hole in the center. Do not forget to insert the drainage plugs as the work proceeds; they are made by taking a iy2xliA strip, taper- ing it with a sharp hatchet to %x% and sawing off at a length of two and one-quarter inches. They also act as guides for the thickness of the bottom. Place eight to a section, an equal dis- tance apart. Cleau the Forms for Later Use. After finishing the bottom, half nail the ysxlVj cross braces at intervals of eight feet and place the inside forms, half nailing them to the brace strips and bracing the bottoms with any light stuff to hold thorn in position. We make the sides one inch thick at the top and one and one-half inches at the bottom. It is sometimes necessary to tack light strips across between the long bracQS to keep the sides straight. Use the same proportion in the concrete as be- fore, but screen the cinders through a ^-inch mesh. If the same proportion Is not kept in making the concrete, the sides and bottom will not set alike and will crack. We put the concrete in flats and fill the sides with a mason trowel, using a piece of board for a guide or backstop; tamp with the trowel and tap side forms to insure close work. Finish a bench as far as you go the same day, as the ''set" will be better. Next day, remove the inside forms and with a mason trowel mold in the angles at the sides and bottom with a mortar consisting of two parts cement and three parts sand, filling any defect in the cast. After thirty-six hours re- move the outside side forms and then the leg formSj^when the crossbeam forms will easily drop away. As soon as the forms are cleaned, they are ready to be set up again for another bench. Ee- move the drainage plugs by tapping on the top with a hammer. Any imper- fections may be*filled with cement mor- tar and the sides may be made smoother by applying with an old broom a white- wash made of one part cement and one part sand. Keep wet for three or four days and use care if the bench is filled with soil before ten days. Cinder Aggregate Better than Q-ravel. If a pipe is to be hung under the center of the bench, insert a IxlxS-inch piece to which it may be nailed, in the center of the crossbeam. A pipe may be hung on the side of the legs by using spikes or twisting a wire around the leg. Where purlin supports occur, it is well to arrange to have them come in the leg^ or beam forms, which is done by changing the length of the bottom forms. When the forms have been taken off, always clean and put them away and they will make all the benches that are needed for some time to come. Ten barrels of cement will buUd a bench 5x150 feet. The cinder aggregate makes a tougher, more porous and more nearly frost-proof job than does gravel, as well as being much cheaper. NEW TOBKEBS WRITE. Members of the horticultural trade in New York state are being urged t writo to Assemblyman Arthur Cowe • at Albany, N. Y., in support of the bii; introduced by him March 8 in the stat<' assembly for an appropriation for a hov ticultural building at the fair grounds at Syracuse. This structure has for ;/ long time been desired by the various interests concerned in New York and ii enough pressure is brought to bear it is thought this bill may succeed in ob taining it for them. Mr. Cowee, beinj; a gladiolus specialist, is interested him self as well as in behalf of the trade and desires letters from others to indicate to the assembly the strength of his support. His bill reads as follows: An act making an appropriation for the con- struction of a horticultural building at the state fair Krounds, Syracuse, N. Y., and for the' Im provement of the said grounds: The people of the state of New York, reprp- sented in senate and assembly, do enact as fol lows: Section 1. The state fair commission is here- by authorized and empowered to execute all necessary contracts in behalf of the people of tlie state of New York for the erection, construc- tion and equipment of a horticultural buildlnc for the exhibitions of fruits, flowers, vegetables, seeds, bee and honey products, farm produce and nursery stock, said building to be erected on the state fair grounds at Syracuse, N. Y., at a cost not to exceed $500,000. Sec. 2. The necessary expense incurred for the purpose of securing information as to methods of exhibiting these products and such soil survey, borings and test pits and the com- pensation of experts in connection with the draft- ing of plans and specifications shall be included as part of the cost of the building and be paid from the appropriation therefor. Sec. 3. The sura of $500,000, or so much thereof as may be necessary, is hereby appro- priated out of any moneys in the state treas- ury, not otherwise appropriated, for the erec- tion, construction and eijuipment of such build- ing and all other expenses incurred under the provisions of this act. Sec. 4. This act shall take effect immediately. ;yfli^it^*i*i^i*^4yj|ii^¥^*iiLL^^ UNITED ACTION •dTTrtiiTriitTrtiiTrtitTTiitTTiitT^iiTTtifrrtitT^ffrKirs?!?^^ LEAD QUARANTINE PROTEST. Plan Meeting in May. The Massachusetts Horticultural So- ciety has sent a letter to trade organi- zations all over the United States urg- ing united action in protest against Quarantine No. 37. The resolutions adopted by the trus- tees of the organization state their be- lief that the quarantine is unnecessary, detrimental to horticultural progress and perhaps beyond the intent and scope of the act of Congress which authorized the quarantine. It is tlieir belief, therefore, that a meeting of the various horticultural in- terests sliould be held and they have requested each organization to appoint a delegate to represent it officially at such a meeting, to be held in May in a central city of the country. The headquarters of the Massachu- setts Horticultural Society are in Hor- ticultural hall, 300 Massachusetts ave- nue, Boston. The officers are: Presi- dent, William C. Endicott; secretary, William P. Rich; treasurer, Walter Hun- newell. Text of Letter. The letter embodying the trustees' resolutions and requesting the appoint- ment of delegates for the meeting in May reads as follows: The trustees of the Afassachusetts Horticul- tural-Society are of opinion that the drastic reg- ulations of tlie Federal Ilortlciiltural Board Im- posed finder Quarantine .TT should l)e substan- tially modified. They believe tliat the restric- tions enforced b.v this quarantine are ver.v largely unnecessary and detrimental to horticultural progress in the United States. It is. moreover, a question whether the Secre- tary of Agriculture in ordering sucli drastic •luaranfine miiy not have exceeded botli the in- tent and llie scope of tlie act of Congress author- izing plant quarantine. The trustees of this society believe that a meeting of all the different horticultural inter- ests in the I'nited States slionld be held to con- sider Quarantine ,S7, and to take sucli action as may sei'm necessiiry to secure its amendment: and they request that your organiznlion appoint a delegate to represent it officially at such a meeting, to be held during tlie month of May in a central city of the United States. The trustees of tlie Massachusetts Ilorticul- tur.-Jl S*)ciety will thank you to advise them of wliat action you may take. Action Already Taken. The Garden Club of America, at its syiring meeting at the Colony Club, New York, March 17, when over 350 ladies were present, passed resolutions con- demnatory of the F. H. B. and Quaran- tine No. 37 with much enthusiasm and absolute unanimity. It was voted to support the resolutions adopted by the directors of the Massachusetts Horti- cultural Society regarding the quaran- tine, and delegates were appointed to nieet with delegates from numerous . / Mahc'H 25, 1020 The Florists^ Review 21 other organizations in New York city on or about May 26 to decide on con- certed action regarding the quarantine. ,T. Edward Moon, president of the Amer- ican Association of Nurserymen; W. N. Craig, of Brookline, Mass., and John C. Wister, president of the new American Iris Society, who were the speakers at the meeting, each referred to the quar- antine and severely criticized it. At a largely attended conference of the National Association of Gardeners, held at the Engineering building, New York, March 18, resolutions were unani- mously adopted pledging the support of the society to efforts being made to modify Quarantine No. 37. It waa voted, on motion of W. N. Craig, to co- operate with the Massachusetts Horti- cultural Society and other organizations and to send delegates to a /?onf"rence to be held in New York city in May to consider the best ways and means of changing the exclusion act. ag^t^l^l^g^t^jl^g^t^l^l^t^l^t^l^g^tjg^ CALL OFF COAL CONTROL iirrsvirrsvirirs>(irrsvir!rsvir7S>(ir^r/s>(ir/svir^r^nirrSYir)^r/^ WILSON LIFTS COAL LID. Accepts Majority Commission Report. Bemoval of government regulation of the coal industry and fuel prices makes certain a rise in cost of coal beginning with the new coal year, April 1. President Wilson announced, March 23, his acceptance of the majority re- port of the coal commission as binding on the bituminous coal mine operators and miners. In a public letter he called upon the operators and minors to sum- mon their joint conference, to put the findings into effect as soon as possible. At the same time the President with- drew government control of the price of bituminous coal, so that the twenty-seven per cent wage advance for miners, rec- ommended by. the report, might be ab- sorbed in the price the consumer would pay after April 1. The commission esti- mated this wage advance at $200,000,000 a year. No Price Fixing in Peace Time. The majority report does not touch upon the question of future coal prices, as beijig without its jurisdiction. The minority report states that "it seems apparent that the additional thirteen per cent now called for should be taken care of by the operators." On this point the President says: "There is at present no provision of law for fixing new coal prices for peace time purposes and unless and until some grave emergency shall arise which in my judgment has a relation to the emer- gency purposes of the Lever act, I would not feel justified in fixing coal prices with reference to future conditions of production. "I am aware that at present, as a result of the shortage created by the coal strike and of the consequent inter- ference with transportation, as a result also of the unexceptionally unfavorable winter, the demand for coal continues active. I desire to impress upon the coal operators the extreme importance not only of their complying to the full extent with the laws against combina- tions in restraint of trade and against profiteering but also of their exerting themselves aflSrmatively to. prevent ex- acting of unreasonable prices for coal. Warns Against Profiteering. "I am sure the public fully appreci- ates the desirability, where practicable, of leaving commercial transactions un- trammeled, but at the same time I am satisfied the public will find ways to protect itself, if such liberal policy shall appear to result in unreasonably high prices." The President wrote the operators and miners that it was "essential to the pub- lic welfare that the agreements be con- cluded at the earliest date practicable, so that the uncertainty as to the fuel supply may be ended and that the con- sumers may be able to make contracts for their coal supply." The executive order withdrawing gov- ernment control of prices removes vir- tually all government control of coal, placing the fuel administration in vir- tually the position it held before the miners struck November 1. Main Features of Award. The report proposes a three months' winter storage supply for the govern- ment, public utilities, railroads and do- mestic consumers, beginning July 1 each year, that the interstate commerce com- mission propose lower rates for coal shipments during that period, that steps be taken to minimize the car shortage and that the federal reserve board per- mit federal reserve banks to favor as eligible for rediscount paper drawn against coal in storage. The outstanding features in the deci- sion of the majority of the commission (Henry M. Robinson, representing the public, and Rembrandt Poole, repre- senting the operators) are as follows: An increase of wages to tonnage workers of twenty-seven per cent over the wages in effect Ocotober 31, 1919, including the fourteen ])er cent increase already granted. This amounts to ap- j)roximatelv $96,000,000 a year more than the Garfield award and $200,000,000 a year more than the wages last Oc- tober. The 6-hour day antl the 5-day week are not granted; the 8-hour day is retained. In refusing the demand of the miners for a 30-hour week, the majority of the commission said that, if the work day were shortened by one hour, it would be equivalent to an additional cost of more than $100,000,000. The President's action means that the coal dealers can ask what they like for coal and that an increase of approxi- mately twenty-five per cent in miners' wages must be assimilated by the con- sumer. NEW THREAT OF COAL STRIKE. Just as the government finished its work in preparation for prosecuting more than a hundred operators and miners of the central competitive dis- trict charged with a nation-wide coal conspiracy in violation of the Lever act, the alarming report came this week from the mine workers' headquarters and from officers of the operators that the door has been thrown open for an- other tie-up of the bituminous coal fields which may prove more paralyzing to the industrial world than the strike of last fall. It is pointed out by mine leaders that the present contract in force between the operators and miners expires March 31 and that unless a new contract is ar- ranged before that time the nation will face a general shutdown then. Experience shows that without a con- tract in force the miners will not return to work. President Wilson's plan of having the operators and miners work out their contracts for the new coal year begin- ning April 1 is said to be in direct con- trast with the basis upon which many of the indictments of the 125 operators and miners named were drawn, and that such a conference would be another vio- lation of the Lever act, provided the present indictments bring about convic- tions. Information among the operators and workers' officials is that the prosecution is proceeding upon the hypothesis that all joint conferences to negotiate wage contracts have been and are illegal since the passage of the Lever act, August 10, 1917. All of this, operators point out, sizes up the pinch in which thoy find them- selves in spite of President Wilson's re- quest to get together on the majority report of the coal strike commission, which in itself gives presidential sanc- tion to the collective bargaining prin- ciple. PROPOSE COAL DIRECTOR. A remedy for the coal situation grow- ing out of war conditions has been pro- posed in a bill introduced in the Senate by Senator Frelinghuysen. The aim is to provide complete means of publicity through a federal coal commissioner, to be appointed by the President and con- firmed by the Senate, with a salary of $10,000 a year and a bureau of officials and employees able to cope with the work hecessarily involved in the plan. This coal commissioner would be em- powered to investigate production, dis- tribution, storage and sale, and to re- quire from producers, operators and miners every form of information in- volved in the industry. The organiza- tion, the management, the practices, all come under his jurisdiction. Retail dealers and consumers also are to be re- quired to ^ive the coal commissioner all required information as to the condi- tions of the trade. The wages and working conditions, terms of employ- ment, living expenses and all similar questions on the miners' side are also embraced in the powers of the commis- sioner. The interstate commerce commission, the federal trade commission and all de- partments of the government are re- quired to cooperate with the coal com missioner in getting out the needed in- J ■*»■ -- i^ *- .<-... ^.- •^ 22 The Florists^ Review March 23, 1920 formation, and the commissioner is by law required to publish the results of his investigations. He also would have the power to prescribe statutory stand- ards for various kinds of coal, to estab- lish zoning systems and to report to Congress annually from and after April 1, 1921, so that needed legislation might be had to correct evils at any point in the industry. In explaining the purposes of the measure, Senator Frelinghuysen said such a commissioner could direct the storage of large quantities of coal in various localities during the summer to forestall shortage in the winter. The position of coal commissioner, he said, was to last only five years. Senator Frelinghuysen said he had been in- formed that the adoption of such a plan as his measure contemplates would re- sult in a saving of $1,000,000,000 a year to the people of the United States. Mr. Frelinghuysen also introduced a bill to repeal the Lever food and fuel control act in so far as it relates to coal. FREIGHT UP ONE HALF? Twenty-five per cent was the general estimate of the probable increase in railroad freight rates, but now that the representatives of the labor unions have presented demands for wage raises that total $1,100,000,000 the trade may face a jump in freight cost of fifty per cent. The national wage conference which met in Washington Monday, March 22, composed of seventeen labor union leaders and fifteen railroad managers. were confronted with a statement of the combined wage demands of the railroad workers totaling over a billion dollars. The increases asked before the return of the roads to private control were postponed by the government, with promise of later consideration. On the strength of those promises the unions withdrew threats to strike. Now the wage demands are put up directly to the roads. At the same time that the national wage conference convened the inter- state commerce commission opened hearings to determine the rates neces- sary to provide for the $1,030,000,000 in wage increases granted by the govern- ment in the last two years. To enable the roads to earn the minimum of five and one-half per cent allowed by law, it was thought an increase of about twenty-five per cent would be needed. Now that wage demands more than equal to those granted in the last two years are presented in addition, it is possible that the increase will have to be double that amount. The decision of the interstate com- merce commission in regard to the new rates must be made by September 1, when the government's guarantee to the roads expires. Whether the new rates will go into effect before that time no one predicts; it is not likely that the rise will come much before that date. September 1, however, the trade will pay considerably more for trans- porting coal, fertilizer, bulbs and other freight shipments.

Despite the sturdy opposition of the New England growers, both at Boston and at the Department of Agriculture's hearing at Washington, the quarantine for the com borer was issued March 15 by the new secretary of agriculture, as was stated in the telegraphic report which appeared in last week's issue of The Review. This order, however, is not so drastic as the embargoes placed in Illinois and Michigan. The florists' products af- fected are "cut flowers or entire plants of chrysanthemum, aster, cosmos, zin- nia, hollyhock, and cut flowers or entire plants of gladiolus and dahlia except the bulbs thereof, without stem." It will bo noted that gladiolus corms and dahlia roots, if without stems attached, are permitted to be shipped under the federal order. Infested Areas. This quarantine only affects four states, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, New York and Pennsylvania. Rhode Island, Vermont, Connecticut and Maine, which wore legislated against by Illinois and Michigan, are not affected by the federal quarantine. Moreover, shipments are forbidden only from areas designated in the supplemental regula- tions as infested. Flowers and plants may be shipped from points in these four states not named as infested. The infested areas are stated to be as fol- lows: Massachusetts: Barnstable, Bourne. Brew- ster, Dennis, Eastham, Falmouth, Harwich. Orleans, Provlncetown, Sandwich, Truro, Well- fleet and Yarmouth, in Barnstable county; Amesbury, Andover, Beverly, Boxford, Danvers, Essex, Georgetown, Gloucester, Groveland, Ham- ilton, Haverhill, Ipswich, Lawrence.

Pennsylvania: North Girard, in Erie county. Certificates to be Issued. From points within the infested area shipments may be made if the plants have been inspected by the Department of Agriculture and certified to be free from the corn borer. The regulations provide also that a permit may be issued, good until revoked, if premises are found to be clean and free from the corn borer. This was a point urged by the growers who attended the Washing- ton hearing, evidently with effect. Thus, a grower within the infested area, if he keeps his premises clean of weeds and growths which harbor the corn borer and allows the pest no foothold on his property, may be allowed to ship plants. All he needs to do is to attach a copy of the permit to each shipment. Regulations on Inspection. The regulations in regard to inspec- tion read as follows: Com and broom com, including all parts of the stalk, celery, green beans In the pod, beets* with tops, spinach, rhubarb, oat and rye straw as Buch or when used as packing; cut Oowers or entire plants of chrysanthemum, aster, cos- mos, zinnia, hollyhock and cut flowers or entire plants of gladiolus and dahlia, except the bulbs thereof, without stems, shall not be moved or allowed to move interstate to any point outside the infested area quarantined for the corn borer unless and until such plants and plant products have been Thspected by the United States Department of Agriculture and certi- fied to be free from the corn borer. In the case of any of the articles enumerated in this regulation where absolute freedom from infestation can not be determined by the in- spector of the Department of Agriculture, cer- tification will be refused. Bvery car, box, bale or other container of plants and plant products of which inspection is required by these regulations shall be plainly marked with the name and address of the consignor and the name and address of the consignee and shall bear a certificate showing that the contents have been inspected by the United States Department of Agriculture and found to be free from corn borer infestation. The inspection certificates in the case of car- load and other bulk shipments shall accompany the waybills, conductors' manifests, memoranda, or bills of lading pertaining to such ship- ments. Certificates of inspection will issue only for plants and plant products which have been actually Inspected by the United States De partment of Agriculture; provided, that when in the case of individual premises or districts within an infested area in any of the quar antined states it shall be determined by com- petent inspectton that the corn Ixjrer does not Infest any of the cultivated products grown in such premises or districts and that said premises or districts have been maintained in such condition of freedom from weeds or vege table growths other than the cultivated products designated as to prevent possibility of occur- rence of the corn borer through such agencies, a permit may be issued (valid until revoked) by the inspector of the Department of Agricul- ture stating that such premises or districts have been inspected and found free from the com borer and free from weeds or other ex- traneous vegetation capable of harlK>rlng the corn borer, and authorizing the shipment from said premises or districts of any of the articles subject to this quarantine grown therein. Copies of such permits shall be attached to small packages, or in the case of bulk shipments, to waybills, conductors' manifests, memoranda, or bills of lading pertaining thereto, and may be accepted by transportation companies in lieu of certificates of inspection. Persons intending to move or allow to be moved interstate plants and plant products for which certificates of inspection are required by these regulations will make application there- for as far as possible in advance of the probable date of shipment. Applications should show the nature and quantity of the plants or plant products which it is proposed to move, together with their exact location and. If practicable, the contemplated date of shipment. Applicants for inspection will be required to assemble the articles to he inspected and so to place them that they can i>e readily examinetl. If not so placed, inspection may be refused. All charges for storage, cartage and labor incident to inspection other than the services of inspectors shall be paid by the shipper. It will be seen that sufficient leeway has been allowed in the quarantine to permit growers who maintain their establishments free from the corn borer and from conditions which might lead to its harboring, to make shipments of cut flowers and plants as hitherto. New England and New York growers, par- ticularly of gladioli, dahlias and chry.s- imthomums, will breathe a little easier after perusal of the regulations gov- erning the quarantine.

Well Attended Throughout. Wednesday, March 17, was carnation lay at the international flower show in New .York, but it did not bring out a particularly large number of exhibits Prom the commercial growers; the flow- ers shown, however, were of excellent quality. There were no stagings Thurs- lay. Friday was sweet pea day, when commercial growers also made a poor showing. The W. Atlee Burpee Co., Philadelphia, had a quite creditable ex- libit entered in the class covering the lisplay arranged for effect and easily von the first prize. In many classes no entries were made. Keen competition was evident in the second big contest for supremacy iu the class for a display of cut roses covering WO square feet. Frank R. Pierson, Farrytown, N. Y., put up his second ?rand exhibit, in itself no small task, 3ince nothing but the finest flowers, produced from two pinches, would be citable for staging in this class, where fhe stock is judged almost to the weigh- ing point, but the first honors went to 1 newcomer in the exhibition field, the Duckham-Pierson Co., Madison, N. J. The management of the show is to be congratulated upon being able to secure 1 filling of two such classes within a lay or two of each other, especially svhen, without them, there would have been a noticeable thinness in the rose section. In the opinion of the public, a view of these exhibits alone was worth the price of admission. The attendance throughout the show was good and the committee has no anxiety in regard to the outcome finan- L'ially. Carnation Awards. While S. J. Goddard, Franiingham, Mass., achieved a great success Wednes- day with his superb Laddie carnations, C. S. Strout, of Biddeford, Me., was also well represented, as shown by the following list of awards to commercial growers: One hundred white — F. B. Abranis, Blue I'oint, X. Y., first; C. S.

Consider- ing climatic conditions, difficulties of labor and transportation and other drawbacks, the show was a remarkable one and the crowds of visitors which came in a steadily growing stream as the show advanced made it a pro- nounced financial success.

"If I only had that wheel chair," remarked a member of the fair sex, "I could spend the whole day amid these lovely flowers. Yet how much happier one should feel that one can flit from flower to flower, so to speak, of one 's own free will, enjoying to the full extent this wonderful dis- play!" From a commercial viewpoint it was conceded to be unsurpassed in quality, even if the entrees were not so numerous as heretofore. High culture is the cause and had Old Sol been more sociable, the effect would be hard to calculate. "Truly an inspiration!" was the opinion of George Burgevin, of Valen- tin Burgevin's Sons, of Kingston, N. Y., referring to the fine showing of roses and in particular to the vase of the new Canadian rose, Frank W. Dunlop. When one considers the growing season, these roses are remarkable and well worth a special trip alone to see them. "I wish that our carnations were like this fine collection," said Conrad Gin- dra, of Poughkeepsio, N. Y., while in- specting an exhibit of those flowers. "It is a feast for sore eyes. But I think that ours will be in fine shape for Easter and we expect an excellent busi- ness. ' ' "Next to booking an order for one of our boilers," said Fred Lauten- schlager, "it is pleasing to hear the encomiums on the Kroeschells already in use." C. F. Baker, of Utica, N. Y., said that he had never seen finer bulbous stock and was particularly interested in Nar- cissus Giant Van Waveren, extolling its beauties with many adjectives and say- ing that he was going to be the first to introduce it to the people of Utica. John Lawrance, of Ogdensburg, N. Y., was among those from out in New York state who felt fully repaid for the trip and said that he is having the best busi- ness he eyer had and his stock for Easter is in excellent shape. "Atlantic City is a veritable bonanza for the florist," said W. Edwards, of the Edwards Floral Hall Co., of that city, who was recently appointed state representative of the F. T. D. for the state of New Jersey. "We are determined that Montreal shall have an international flower show in the early future," said W. Hall, of Hall & Robinson, of that city. He also said that a finer collection of Dutch bulbous stock could hardly be accumu- March 25, 1020 The Florists^ Review 25 iated, but he thought that they should he staged at about eighteen inches from the floor instead of thirty-six inches, •IS they were, because he thought that the effect would be much better, as the ])lant8 should be looked down upon and not through. F, X. Dienst, of Middletown, N. Y., observed that when one fails to receive a single reply to a Help Ad in The Review it shows the condition of the labor market, as applied to greenhouse work. The gem of sweet peas, as seen from a commercial point, is a sport of Rose Queen, grown and exhibited by Herman Marmitsch, of Rockville Center, L. I., who said that it has been constantly in bloom since January 1 and is now in full erop, with an average stem of twenty- two inches. It carries more than the usual number of blooms and the whole- sale price has been $12 per hundred, which is evidence of its popularity. Having but a small stock, it is proposed by Mr. Marmitsch to cross-fertilize it, hoping to obtain a distinct variety on the order of the Spencer type, except that this will be far superior to that well known type. Fred C. W. Brown, manager of the J. M. Gasser Co., Cleveland, O., has de- clined the pressing invitations of his host of ^admirers to be a candidate for the presidency of the S. A.

Eisele, president of Henry A, Dreer, Inc., noticing a hive of bees working in a transparent glass hive, said that it illustrated the condition of things both at Riverton, N.

At the annual meeting of the Ameri- can Rose Society Tuesday afternoon, March 16, at the Grand Central Palace, New York, Robert Pyle, the president of the society, presented in his address a stirring survey of the society's ac- complishments last year and its tasks for the next twelve months. The re- port of Henry O. May, the treasurer, showed a good balance. The election, as indicated in the brief telegraphic report of the meeting in The Review of March 18, resulted in the continuance in office of all the old offi- cers, as follows: President — Robert Pyle, West Grove, Pa. Vice-president — F. L. Atkins, Ruther- ford, N. J. Secretary— E. A. White, Ithaca, N. Y. Treasurer — Harry O. May, Summit, N. J. The members of the executive com- mittee elected are: J. A. Curry, of Portland, Ore.; S. S. Pennock, o^ Phila- delphia, Pa., and Thomas Roland, Na- hant, Mass. The services of John Cook, of Balti- more, Md., and Dr. Van Fleet, of Wash- ington, D. C, as hybridizers were recog- nized by their election as honorary members of the society. Next June the Hubbard medal will be presented to E. Gurney Hill, of Richmond, Ind., the presentation being postponed from this meeting in order that he might receive it in person. President's Address. President Pyle's address follows: "The business of the American, Rose Society is not to promote the interests of any one section or separate group of people. Our business is broader than that. It is to promote the interest in roses for all the people. "We aim to develop the rose and the use of the rose in order to help carry to every corner of our continent its message to mortals. "We do not participate in rose grow- ing because we love to do battle with fungoids and parasites, but rather be- cause of what the rose means to us and what we aim that it shall mean to others. We would eliminate missteps by illuminating the pathway to success in the rose garden. "By inducing and helping more men to know and grow their own roses, we would teach them to know the language of the rose and grow more devoted to this recreation and pleasure which 'age cannot wither.' "In reporting to you of last year's business and of the present condition of the American Rose Society, I feel an embarrassment of riches. It is not easy to select that which would prove of greatest interest. May I not, however, present what seems to me to be the fun- damental facts in the case, as we look forward to another year of progress? What is our present foundation and v.hat our vision of the future? Achievements. "First — The American Rose Society has a growing and representative mem- bership, both amateur and professional, exceeding 1,700 in number and repre- senting all parts of the United States and much of the rest of the world. The work of the society is conducted bv a group of unselfish rosarians, whose loy- alty and ability have been abundantly proved. "Second — Carefully planned rose test gardens have been established under the oversight of the American Rose Society in Washington, in cooperation with the Department of Agriculture; at Ithaca, N. Y., with Cornell Univer- sity, and in cooperation with the park departments of Hartford, Conn., St. Paul, Minn., and Portland Ore. These test gardens are each under the direct charge of a local committee appointed by the American Rose Society. "Third — There exists the beginning of a system of affiliated local rose socie- ties, each holding meetings and arrang- ing lectures and shows to arouse wider and more intelligent interest in roses among all types of people. These or- ganizations profit in the way of litera- ture, prizes and supervision by affiliation with the American Rose Society. "Fourth — A great inducement to membership in the American Rose So- ciety is the privilege, not otherwise ob- tainable, of receiving the American Rose Annual, edited by J. Horace Mc- Farland. This yearly volume is a note- worthy permanent record of rose prog- ress and rose thoughts. "Thus, with a capable and enthusias- tic personnel, with established rose test facilities for every important climatic zone of America, with a developing equipment for promoting local organ- ized rose efforts, with the Rose Annual providing the collection and distribu- tion of up-to-date rose information, it is apparent that the American Rose So- ciety is ready to serve adequately in promoting a great rose advance. Aims. "Now, what is our rose vision for America? "Millions of homes throughout this land have not yet sensed real rose joy. Upon us rests the duty of stimulating in them the love of roses. Indeed, with the encouraging example of England, we now know we can and must nation- alize the love for roses. "To realize this vision, personal ef- fort is necessary. Therefore, on behalf of the executive officers, I urge every member to work for the accomplishment of the following definite aims: "First, that in every American city with an active park department, there should be established a public rose gar- den. Inform the society if your town is interested. "Second, that in 1920 we should at least treble the number of local rose so- cieties and promote the holding in that year at least of ten times as many local rose shows as have heretofore been held. If ten people in your community are in- terested, please write our secretary for suggestions. "Third, that we should provide means to increase largely the prizes and hon- oraria available for hybridizers of worthy roses or for any one making a noteworthy contribution to the cause of the rose in America. Rose lovers with -frjr i-^r 26 The Florists^ Review Makch 25, 1920 available funds for this purpose are urged to consult officers of this society in reference to plans already formed in this direction. "Fourth, and most important, that we should at least double our member- ship within the next year. Every mem- ber would profit by such increase, for increased income will make possible the needed publication of an authoritative American rose manual and of a complete American rose catalogue. "Will you not help to realize this vision for American rose prosperity by inviting to membership your friends who ought to be interested?" Treasurer's Report. The report of Henry O. May, the treasurer of the society, for the year ending March 15, 1920, was as follows: UECEIPTS.

At the meeting of the executive com- mittee of the American Dahlia Society held at the international flower show in the Grand Central Palace, New York, March 19, it was decided to hold the autumn show in New York during Sep- tember at one of the centrally located hotels and to charge exhibitors a rea- sonable price for floor space and also to charge for admission, to help defray the expenses. The meeting was attended by grow- ers from many states and considerable space was taken by those present at the meeting and a substantial guarantee fund was started. The plan is to give the greatest dahlia show ever held and work to that end has already beeir~-started and will be prose- cuted vigorously and continuously until show time. Every dahlia grower and lover of this popular flower is invited to cooperate. President Vincent moved that Prof. George Fraser, of the Connecticut State Agricultural College, Storrs, Conn., be tendered the thanks of the, society for the excellent manner in which the trial grounds were conducted last year. He was made a life member of the society. Trial Orounds to Be Larger. The trial grounds will be continued and will be larger and better than ever. Tubers for the trial gardens should be properly labeled with the name of ^the variety and the exhibitor and sent to Prof. Fraser. Last year there were many visitors throughout the season and, as the trial grounds are recognized as a permanent institution, there will be more visitors this year than ever. James Duthie, Oyster Bay, N. Y., moved that a new scale of points be made, so that good exhibition varieties and varieties good for cut flowers would be given an equal chance. The motion was carried. A motion was passed protesting the quarantine df the states of Illinois and Michigan against dahlia tubers and bulbs. Let dahlia growers everywhere, ama- teurs as well as professionals, begin now in the effort to make this the greatest exhibition of any single flower ever held. Edward C. Vick, Sec'y. GARDENERS GATHER /s\irrwri«>nri«\iri«vir/sviri«tirrstirirwr;rs>rh^/wr/wr^ GARDENERS GET TOGETHER. For Conference in New York. A conference of gardeners under the auspices of the National Association of Gardeners was held March 18 in the Engineering building, New York city. Kobert Weeks, of Cleveland, ex-presi- dent of the association, presided. The conference was called to give the mem- bers an opportunity to discuss the aims of the association and the operations of the service bureau and to formulate plans for a campaign to interest young men in the profession of gardening. W. N. Craig, of Brookline, Mass., pre- sented a communication from the Massachusetts Horticultural Society, directing attention to Quarantine No. 37 and its detriment to horticultural progress in the United States, and asked that a delegate be appointed to repre- sent the organization officially at a meeting to be held during the month of May, at which various horticultural in- terests are to be represented. The asso- ciation voted to be represented at this meeting. Following the meeting of the associa- tion, a statement was issued to the New York papers by an unidentified source, evidently with malicious intent, to the effect that the association had gone on record as being in favor of the exclu- sion act, preventing the importation of plants. This, of course, is an untruth, as the National Association of Garden- ers, from the first, has been strongly opposed to Quarantine No. 37 and the discrimination now practiced by the Federal Horticultural Board in favor- ing those who have been friendly to it, while discriminating against those who have had courage to express their views regarding the injustice of this measure, is not weakening the opposition to it of the professional gardeners. Service Bureau Conunended. The workings and immediate future plans of the service bureau were ex- plained and generally discussed by the members from the floor, following which discussion a motion was carried heartily endorsing what has been ac- complished by this department of the association. Alexander Michie, chairman of the service bureau publicity fund, made n strong appeal for greater support oi' this fund by the members, so that thi work which had been planned might bi carried out. His appeal met with im mediate response among many of thosi present, who came forward after tli( meeting to subscribe to the fund. The discussion regarding the possi bility of interesting young men in thi profession of gardening drew forth oi> timistic expressions from most of, those who spoke on the subject, while a few were rather pessimistic in their views of the success of bringing young men into the gardening profession while other vocations appear to be so much more lucrative. It was believed, how ever, by all present that the gardening profession is confronted by a serious problem at the present time, due to the inability to secure young men as as- sistants. It cannot look forward, as in the past, to Europe to supply them, for among the young men of the profession who entered the war the sacrifice of life was heavy. The relation between the employer and the gardener came in for consider- able discussion, with opinions about equally divided as to who was to blame for the lack of confidence existing be- tween them. Recruiting for Gardeners. At an executive meeting of the trus- tees and directors of the association earlier in the day, at which W. N. Craig, of Massachusetts; Robert Weeks, of Ohio; George W. Hess, of Washington, D. C; John Barnet, of Pennsylvania; Robert Williamson, of Connecticut; Joseph Tansey, James Stuart and Daniel Coughlin, of New York, and Arthur Smith and M. C. Ebel, of New Jersey, were present, the recommendation of the last convention that the 1920 an- nual meeting be held in St. Louis was favorably acted upon. The secretary was authorized, in conjunction with the committee appointed at the last con- vention, to develop plans immediately to bring to the attention of young men who may be interested the advantages offered by the position of gardener. A communication was received from President L. P. Jensen, of St. Louis, regretting his inability to attend the meeting and the conference, owing to the new development work which he has just undertaken in connection with his position, and containing a number of recommendations which were acted upon by the executive board. President Jensen wrote that he would be glad to receive from officers and members of the association suggestions concerning its welfare and that of the profession which it represents. March 17 W. N. Craig appeared be- fore the Garden Club of America at its annual meeting at the Colony Club, New York city, and addressed a large au- dience of its members on "The Profes- sional Gardener from His Viewpoint." Mr. Craig ably presented the cause of the professional gardener and, judging by the hearty reception his remarks re- ceived, his views met with the endorse- ment of those who listened to him. Mr. Craig also spoke of the iniquities of Quarantine No. 37 in a way which met with general approval, the Garden Club of America unanimously passing a reso- lution as opposed to the measure. March 25, 1920 The Flc«rists^ Review 27 BRITISH NOVELTIES OF 1919. Summarizing the floricultural achieve- ments of 1919, a British review of intro- ductions of new varieties of roses dur- ing last year states: "The list of novelties for last year is not so long as usual, but this is scarcely to be wondered at when we ■consider the cumulative effects of five years of war, with labor shortage, coal on ration and all the other troubles which we hope are now behind us. What one does wonder at is the pluck and perseverance of the raisers, who, after surmounting all the difficulties of rais- ing and growing their favorites, suc- ceeded also in overcoming the obstacles put in their way by the carrying com- panies and got them up to the Royal Horticultural Society in show form. May no one grudge them the reward they richly merit. "Rose raisers, though badly handi- capped by the weather, scored a long list of awards from the National Rose Society, including nine gold medals. This number was considered excessive by many, but this matter has perhaps been sufficiently argued and may be al- lowed to rest. From the commercial standpoint one of the most important of the medal roses is Victory (Mc- Gredy), which is likely to oust Rich- mond from its present position as a forcing rose in the market. Of the others we were much struck by Mrs. Henry Morse (McGredy), which should become rapidly popular from its many merits. Mrs. Chas. Lamplough is a yel- low which should be a stand-by for the exhibitor; Clara Curtis is another yel- low by the same raiser, which should be good for show or garden, whije yet a third in this popular color is Inde- pendence Day (Bees, Ltd.), a charming garden variety. "In whites, Mrs. R. S. Darlington (McGredy) is promising, being an im- provement on Mrs. Foley Hobl3s. Mrs. C. V. Haworth (Alex. Dickson) was the best of the mixed yellow and pink tints, of which we have now a fair number. "None of the crimsons, except Vic- tory, got into the gold medal class, but several were worthy of note. To our mind Prince of Wales (W. Easlea) was about the most promising; Firebrand (Alex. Dickson) was also a big flower of good color, and Capt. Reid, by the same raisers, had scent in addition to other merits. "Seafoam (W. Paul), a bracteata hy- brid, took the Royal Horticultural So- ciety award, and though not possessing much form, is so profuse that it ought to make a garden rose." ^ ROSE CULTURE, Last fall I dug out about 600 rose plants from the field and placed them in a hotframe in the ground, in a tem- perature of about 50 degrees at night. In December I potted them and grew them in a temperature of about 45 de- grees, then put them in a temperature of 60 degrees at night. A few of them have buds; almost all of them have come blind. Can you tell me the cause of this? I have cut the blind shoots back to two eyes and placed them under the bench. Do you think this cutting back will cause them to be in bloom by May 10? How long does it take for a rose to bloom after the bud has been taken off? A. F. C— O. dug up and heeled together closely in a coldframe. As soon as the Christmas plants are out of the way, it is cus- tomary to pot the roses, placing them in a cool house first. You made a great mistake in placing your plants "in a hotframe in the ground, in a tempera- ture of about 50 degrees at night. ' ' That was 20 degrees too warm; the freezing point or a little lower would have been better. I do not know whether you are growing ramblers or bush roses. If the former, only dead and weak wood should be removed and the canes bent around stakes to make them break more evenly. If they are hybrid perpetuals, much harder pruning is needed. With baby ramblers, cut the growths back half their length. Roses started in January will bloom as early as the middle of March and almost any kind can be had for Easter, April 4. For May 10, dormant plants cut back, started at 45 to 50 degrees and later advanced to 60 degrees, will be on time. C. W. LADIES' S. A. F. Your treatment of roses has not been at all correct. The plants should have been left outdoors until they had been exposed to several good freezings, then Boaxd of Directors Meets. In response to the call' issued by the president, a meeting of the board of directors was held in New York Thurs- day, March 18, at which time Mrs. Charles Totty was elected chairman for 1920. The matter of fixing the amount of the bond for the secretary and treas- urer, in accordance with the action of the society at the meeting held in Detroit, was left to the board of directors. They have fixed the secretary's bond at $500 and that of the treasurer at $1,000. Mrs. Albert M. Herr, Sec'y. C»CN LETTEI^^*- READEIi^ AN OLD VARIETY. In a recent issue of The Review there was an inquiry as to a salvia-likc plant with foliage that has the odor of pine- apple. No doubt the name of this is Salvia rutilans, an old inhabitant of gardens. The writer grew it forty years ago. This plant may be obtained at times in gardens. A short time ago we sent to England for plants, part of which were given to Fritz Bahr, of Highland Park, 111., who valued it highly for window boxes. He may be able to supply plants now. E. O. Orpet. watered a few in pots and they also turned black. It seemed to burn the root system of the latter and then moved up the main stem until the plant was dead. Live steam is much better than any other sterilizer that I have ever found, although it is the most trouble. D. E. Whitson. DANQEB IN FORMALDEHYDE. I have had an experience with for- maldehyde which may be of some ben- efit to the readers of The Review. My advice is never to use it to sterilize soil or sand, as it is sure death to plants or cuttings placed in them. I sterilized some sand in my propa- gating bench with a solution of one to ttfty; that is, one part of formaldehyde and fifty parts of water. I put 600 co- leus cuttings in the bench and in forty- eight hours all had turned black. I EyPRA PAY FOB EXTRA WORK. From a perusal of the help wanted columns in the various horticultural journals, it appears to be becoming a general custom to state that extra pay is given for Sunday work and over- time. This custom has been a long time in arriving. It should be the rule in all places. There is no other business or trade where a man is expected to de- vote a full Sunday every two or three weeks without any remuneration. The weekly wages for six days in the florists' business do not, in most cases, com- pare favorably with those of skilled workers in other lines. Prices of stock have been higher than formerly for a long time and should remain at a point that will allow the workers that which is reasonably due to them. E. E. Randall.

At a meeting of the publicity com- mittee held in New York March 18, the committee gave instructions that ar- rangements be made to cover magazine advertising until September, to the ex- tent of $20,000. This w^as an amount much less than it was anticipated could be spent, as funds have not come in as the committee had a right to expect they should. It was believed, however, that the slogan, ' ' Say It with Flowers, ' ' could be maintained, special flower days taken care of and impetus given to reg- ular daily business by the proper use of the money. They had hoped to have twice as much available at this season and they would have had it had the large army of nonsubscribers responded to the appeals constantly made to them. There was a large attendance of the trade at the flower show held in New York. During the week the publicity committee held its meeting. The cam- paign work was the subject of conver- sation among many groups gathered at different times in the Grand Central Palace and it was generally agreed that it was wrong to call one who had sub- scribed to the publicity fund a contrib- utor, but he should be called an investor, because his subscription was an invest- ment rather than a contribution. All were greatly pleased at the results of the campaign and expressed themselves as willing to go the limit in their sup- port. Phonograph Record. The Von Tilzer song, "Say It with Flowers," is now, wo are informed, to be recorded on a phonograph record by one of the big companies. Judging from its reception everywhere as a vocal number, the sale for it as a record should be large and the publicity for the slogan immense and lasting. This is only one of the sources for publicity of a valuable sort which the committee has been able to promote and which costs us practically nothing. Have you thought anything of our billboard proposition yet? Spring is here and the ground is being opened everywhere. If you are on a good high- way, the never-ending line of travel past your establishment will soon begin and a billboard properly displayed would add to our publicity and, incidentally, identify you as an up-to-date florist. About 100 signs have already been placed and there are more to go out. The cost of a sign is $50 and it is well worth the money if used only to hide a bit of unsightliness. Send In a Pledge. But don't forget your subscription to the fund — your investment. The maga- zines will have to limit the space avail- able for advertising in their fall num- bers unless the paper supply situation changes materially for the better. It is not too soon to contract for October, November and even December issues, but how can contracts be made unless the money to pay for them is in sight? If those whose purses are not easy just now will send in a pledge, with pay- ment at a certain time specified, they will provide encouragement for the committee and plans can be worked out, but we have no right to expect them to assume liabilities without a prospect of meeting them. Why not send in your subscription, or pledge, at once? You will feel better for having done so. John Young, Sec'y. PUBLICITY COMMITTEE MEETS. New Bureau Formed. A meeting of the publicity committee was held at the offices of the S. A. F in New York, Thursday afternoon March 18, at which were present Chair man Henry Penn, of Boston, Mass. George Asmus, Chicago, 111.; C. C. Poll worth, Milwaukee, Wis.; Wallace E Pierson, Cromwell, Conn.; J. F. Am mann, Edwardsville, 111.; Major P. F O'Keefe, Boston; H. V. Swenson, Chi cago, and Secretary John Young, New York. The secretary presented a report showing in detail the fund available for the use of the committee. Major O'Keefe submitted copy for a broad- side, which, meeting the approval of the committee, he was authorized to send out. Appropriate $20,000. Mr. Asmus moved, and the xnotion was seconded by Mr. Ammann, that the sum of $20,000 be appropriated for ad- vertising in the magazines during tl; period ending with September. A vo' was taken on the motion and it w.v carried unanimously. The matter of having an audit of tl, • books of the campaign made at the sanv time as the audit of the treasurer- books coming under discussion, on nn tion of Mr. Pierson, seconded by Mr. Ammann, it was directed that the book ; be sent to an auditor in the conventioi city, at convention time, and the flnane • committee was instructed to make tip necessary arrangements. Service Bureau. H. V. Swenson explained a proposi tion he had made to handle all the deal ers' helps used in the campaign from his office in Chicago, including the stick- ers, posters and folders for Mothers' day. After some discussion, Mr. Am- mann moved that Mr. Swenson 's propo- sition be accepted; that the promotion bureau stock be turned over to Mr. Swenson, at his Chicago office, and that he should render to the secretary promptly each week an account of all sales made; that the secretary or other authorized person have access to gales records at any time for the purpose of checking accounts; that Mr. Swenson shall also submit, at the annual meeting of the publicity committee, a regularly audited report in detail covering sales and royalties due for the year's work; that on the twentieth day of each month Mr. Swenson shall forward to the secretary's office all money collected on account of sales; that a committee of three be appointed to draw up a con- tract with Mr. Swenson on the terms ar- ranged. The motion was seconded by Mr. Pierson and carried. It was also arranged that Mr. Swenson should handle this business under the name of the Florists' Publicity Service Bureau of the S. A. F., and that all checks be made payable to the bureau. John Young, Sec'y. KIRCHHOFF'S NEW GLADIOLI. The entire stocks of three gladioli originated by W. E. Kirchhoff, Sr., have been bought by his son, Arthur A. Kirchhoff, Pembroke, N. Y., who will distribute them this year. The varieties lire General Pershing, Prof. A. C. Beal and Gloxinia. Particular stress is laid on the high qualities of General Pershing. Mr. Kirchhoff has already offered a silver and a bronze medal for the American Gladiolus Society's show in August for the best six spikes of General Pershing grown by professionals and has also offered prizes for a similar amateur class. Gladiolus General Pershing is de- scribed by Mr. Kirchhoff as having large flowers, larger than those of Mrs. Francis King. "The flowers," he says, "are borne on a tall and erect spike, with three to four open at one time. There are anywhere from fifteen to twenty-four buds on a spike.

Oblad, of Salt Lake" City, I'tah, the success of gladiolus culture in the state of Utah," states Bailey & Sons Co., of Salt Lake City. "Mr. Oblad, after experimenting a number of years in the culture of gladioli in his small back yard, gained confidence that the industry could be operated successfully in Utah soil and climate. Several years ;igo he secured a few acres of choice land and started extensively growing the bulbs. For the last three years Mr. Oblad has supplied the trade with blooms of exceedingly high quality." March 25, 1920 The Florists^ Review 29 PUSmNG THE SLOQAK. Is Educating tlie Public. That local cooperative advertising in conjunction with the national adver- tising campaign is fast becoming a fact !S demonstrated by the recent activities of Sti Louis, Chicago, Milwaukee, Buf- falo and Baltimore. Cincinnati has a regular organized campaign in which )nost of the growers and retailers are banded together. By the percentage plan — that is, the growers pledging one- half of one per cent on all the stock they sell and the retailer one per cent on his purchases — a total of one and one-half per cent is obtained on all stock that is sold to the local market. This is the most equitable way to collect for this worthy cause, as every one is assessed according to the amount of business he transacts. I do not understand how anyone could fail to join in such a plan when it is for the good of the entire trade, but, of course, there are in every city men who will find some fault with such a plan. My advice to the florists in such a city would be to go ahead without them; they will be marked men in a short time and will be only too glad to get in. There is no doubt that the best business men in the cities referred to above are linked up with the scheme. Get your campaign under way and in a short time you will have no trouble in getting 100 per cent of those who will be benefited by your campaign. Dreams Bealized. Let us look for a moment at what local advertising means. It is not the business you already have in your par- ticular locality that you should be so much interested in, as in the business which you have not. This country has a population of something like 100,000,- 000. Of this number it is safe to say that not over ten to fifteen per cent are flower buyers, or in any way interested in flowers. If this small per- centage could be augmented to fifty per cent, can you not see how the business in flowers all over the country would be increased? This would mean that busi- ness would be from thirty-five to forty per cent greater than it is today. Some people will say that this is the asser- tion of a dreamer. To those I would re- ply that not over twenty-five years ago, when wc saw the first automobiles, many of us looked upon them as the dream of some fanatics, which would never be realized. Today they are not a dream, but to the pedestrian in our crowded streets they are more of a nightmare. Let any man who has been successful in the florists' business look back over his career 'and see if it has not been more or less of a dream come true. The advertising of flowers is any- thing but a dream. It is not a theory; it is conveying to the public a confidence in that which you grow. Advertising is not a game of chance, because you get out of it just in proportion to what you put in it. The best advertising agencies will tell you that if you have the right product there is no question about suc- cess. Has anyone who reads this ar- ticle ever heard of the florists' product being questioned? I want to call your attention to one of the lowliest articles In existence at one time, the groundnut. Many times we have paid our nickel for a quart of this nut in the gallery of some theater or at the circus. Did any of us ever expect to see it as it is today, served on banquet tables, in the best confectioners' shops, put up in glass jars and made into peanut butter? I can remember the time when they were fed to the hogs. This is a victory for advertising. New Uses for Flowers. We are advertising the slogan, "Say It with Flowers." Did we ever stop to think that the public is often uncon- siously "Saying It with Flowers"? For instance, there is in Harrisburg, Pa., an office building, ten stories high and covering about half of a city block. Every window in this immense building has a window box. One of the things the national committee is endeavoring to do is to create new uses for flowers; surely here is at least a prospect. Is it too much to imagine that the time will come when architects will provide window boxes for the great office build- ings they plan and let the tenants pro- vide the plants? Think of what an edu- cation this would be to the public alone. We have merely scratched the surface as to the ways that flowers can be used. I went into a lunch room recently in one of the busiest commercial districts of a large city at a time when flowers were extremely scarce. It was opening day and there were baskets, horseshoes and bunches of flowers in every nook and corner. As I looked at this sight, I could not but feel that the proprietor realized the advantage of ' ' Say It with Flowers." The florists have the product. Edu- cate the public and organize every city and town in the country, not to adver- tise any individual, but to push the slogan, "Say It with Flowers." Ee- member how small one-half or one per cent of your receipts is for this pur- pose and, at the same time, stand by the national committee. There will then be no danger of the future of the florists' business. Tate. SHBINEBS GOING WEST. If y,ou are going west next June to attend the greatest of all Imperial Council sessions, or, in other words, if you are going to attend the convention of the A. O. N. M. S. at Portland, Ore., in June, 1920, the Portland Floral So- ciety wants you to register with James Forbes, 354 Washington street, state vice-president of the S. A. F., as soon as convenient, and the society will do the rest. The city will be taxed to its utmost capacity to care for the "caravans," but the florists intend to see, that visit- ing tradesmen are taken care of and properly conducted to the greatest and most flourishing spots in the oasis of Portland. And it will be some oasis! F. A. Van Kirk, Sec 'y, Portland Floral Society. <^ OVER THE PEAK -^ if?wrirsvir?wrrsvirirsvir)rsvirir8>rtr>svir?s\iti«tir)«vih^ HIGH PRICES PASSING. Financial Critic's View. Indicating to florists the trend of general business conditions that will duly affect the trade, the conclusions of one surveying the nation's activities in a critical way are of importance, inas- much as they tell of a point reached that all have been watching for. The following is written by the financial editor of the Chicago Tribune, the largest newspaper in the middle west: "The corrective influence of higher interest rates, which first asserted itself in the stock market a few months ago when liquidation began and a lower trend of prices followed, may now be distinctly recorded as having reached mercantile activity. There is a definite slowing up. The riotous giving of (.rders, without regard to prices or other limitations upon manufacturers, has halted, a condition that will soon be set forth in formal trade reports. It may now be asserted with reasonable ac- curacy that the peak of high prices in mercantile lines has been about reached and that recession is on the way. "It is the experience at the banks that merchant borrowers have become uncertain over the outlook, are seeking counsel as to the prudent course to fol- low, and are being told that new condi- tions in the foreign trade situation must be recognized, that to try to continue business on the inflated war basis will not only prove expensive in interest rates during enforced prolongation, but ultimate losses must follow. Situation Has Cbanged. "As late as six weeks ago the average mercantile borrower was not looking for ndvice; he felt confident of his position because anything placed on his counters met a ready sale. Within the last thirty days this has changed. "The caution in the matter of new buying being exercised by retailers is felt by manufacturers in reduced or- ders and a discontinuance of the policy of what may be designated as open or- ders. Until a short time ago the retail merchant was obliged to buy, not at current (juotations, but at such quota- tions as might obtain at the time of de- livery of the goods, three or six months forward. That policy on the part of manufacturers was dictated by the era of advancing prices. He proposed to be able to profit by the higher price that might be expected to have been at- tained by the time the goods were ready for the buyer. "But now the manufacturer cannot secure such orders. He must accept to- wi^'f^': '30 The Florists^ Review Mabch 25, 1020 day's prices for future delivery and for a smaller volume of goods. This, it may be expected, will result in accumu- lations of manufactured stocks and com- petition to dispose of them at price con- cessions. "The banks express satisfaction at the manner in which their counsel fa- voring retrenchment is received. And even if such counsel were not regarded with favor the pressure of interest rates would in time effect the result desired. "The large local institutions dealing with credit in the middle west feel con- vinced that the high price era is pass- ing, that demands have started to ap- proximate normal and a more whole- some condition is being established." to be a big influence in helping turn the trade's big stock of lilies into cash next week.

The dewy blos- som—a Clip of pearl filled with gold. It greets you on Easter morning — the lily— for five years nourished and cultivated in prepare tion "for this hour! Asleep in a round, brown bulb, you would first find vour lily plant. In Japan, where flowers All the fields and cover the hillsides, the Uly bulbs are propagated. It requires from three to five vears for them to mature, and each year tliev must be transferred to new soil. When developed to flowering size, the bulbs are packed in moist, sterilized earth and started on their journev across the Pacific. In early fall vour bulb arrives at San Fran- cisco or Seattle, or New York by way of Panama canal, and is shipped in a refrigerator car to the florist. The temperature of the ear must b«- kept low to prevent premature sprouting. No food for your table is handled more carefully. Hefore we sit down to the Thanksgiving feast the lilies for Easter have been planted, one brown bulb in each round pot. Then comes a season of greatest vigilance. During the first three weeks the temperature of the greenhouse is kept low. but when the green sprouts rise to eight inches in height the temperature is increased to 70 or SO degrees This is summer heat, and must be preserved all through the long winter— through storms of driven snow and shortages of coal. The florist becomes guardian of your treasure. Five months are required for the taster Illy to emerge from the bulb. In the late winter the plants must be closely watched to keep the buds from spreading their petals tf)o quickly Each plant must be held back or hastened forward, so that it will open, in full radiance, not a day too soon nor a day too late, but exactly on Easter morn. , ^. _ » The American Hulb Cx>., through the efforts of its president, Mr, A.

Not only is it a real boost, occupying so large a apace in a newspaper of over 750,000 circulation, but it will cost real money. The advertisement occu- pies 250 agate lines on four columns, a total of 1,000 lines. The Tribune's Sun- day rate is 80 cents per agate line — 60 cents to contract advertisers like the Allied Florists' Association — in addi- tion to which is the cost of writing, photographs, drawing and cuts, also of a large number of proofs which are be- ing mailed to florists with the good suggestion that they paste them in their windows next week. It is a unique stunt, costly, but sure GALVIN'S NEW OFFICERS. At the recent annual meeting of tho directors of the Thomas F. Galvin cor- poration, Charles F. Boyle was elected president and general manager. Mr. Boyle has been connected with the firm for over twenty-two years, ten of whicli were spent as manager at 799 Boylston street, Boston. The last three he has be.en general manager of the firm's two Boston stores and also its New York store. James J. Slattery, for over twenty years with the firm, and recently man- ager of sales, becomes assistant gen- eral manager and is in charge of the store at 1 Park street, Boston. Both men are .prominent in the trade and have been conspicuous in pla/jing the firm in its high position among retail concerns in this country. John R. McDonough advances to a manager's berth at the Boylston street store. The New York store continues under the able direction of R. A. Hale. Both are younger men, full of enthu- siasm and with promising careers at their bidding. The firm's business has increased, Mr. Boyle states, by leaps and bounds during the last year. With an energetic staff working hard for success, the firm has a high position in the flower world, where for seventy-three years its lead- ership has brought international fame. Emporia, Kan.. — O.

The arrangements for the executive meeting of the Canadian Horticultural Association to be held at Hamilton, Ont., April 12 and 13, are nearly com- pleted and the local committees are making a final effort to cope with the many details of the comprehensive pro- gram. Besides making all arrangements for the business end of the convention, the educational committee will take another step and an effort will be made to form a permanent council of horticulture, whose duty it will be to carry proposi- tions for training schools, botanical gar- dens, etc., to the proper sources. In connection with this work, a repre- sentative of one of the great American universities is expected to address a meeting which will take the form of a banquet. Plant registration will also receive attention, a permanent commit- tee being appointed to look after this important feature. There is much favorable comment on the general activities of the C. H. A., not the least of which is its cooperation with the F. T. D. in secur- ing a clearing house in Canada, thus allowing American bills to be paid in Canada with Canadian currency. This is admittedly a great benefit to all re- tailers and both the F. T. D. and the C. H. A. are to be congratulated on the spirit of real cooperation shown. Convention in Atigust. Two days of solid work will be neces- sary to complete the arrangements for what will undoubtedly be the greatest Canadian convention of all time. A record attendance is assured and it is especially gratifying to learn of the success attending the efforts of the offi- cials to increase the membership. At this early date the membership list has been doubled and names are recorded from coast to coast, with many from the United States. This convention, which will take place in Hamilton, August 10 to 13, will be of great interest to everyone connected with the trade and it is not too early to urge our American brothers to try to March 25, 1920 The Florists^ Review 31 attend.

Just when a few warm days at the entrance of spring had stirred every- body in the uncanny way that early spring atmosphere does, the Allied Flo- rists' Association took advantage of the opportunity to present to Chicagoans the advertisement, ' ' Growing Plants for the Home," which is reproduced on this page. Catalogues from seed stores were just getting into circulation and the thoughts of the public were on their gardens. So the suggestion to antici- pate the enjoyment of outdoor growth later by purchasing a plant for the home now came at a most opportune time. The advertisement occupied double-col- umn space, seven inches deep, in the Chicago American, an evening paper, March 22, and in the Chicago Tribune next morning, March 23. PITTSBURGH, PA. The Market. The market remains unchanged and conditions are about the same as they have been for the last fortnight. Sev- eral funerals, one large wedding and the spring opening of many of the large department stores, requiring decora- tions, kept the demand at normal. Various Notes. "William A. Clarke, of the Pittsburgh Cut Flower Co., spent Monday, March 15, at Bakerstown, Pa., looking over the range and inspecting the stock for Easter. Miss Alma Abiatti, of this firm, has returned to the offices after a sev- eral weeks' siege of the flu. Manager Harry Gibson and S. J.

This firm had to work all night on two occasions last week for the floral pieces for a large funeral and the "Whitworth-Lathwood church wedding, at Kittanning, Pa., Sat- urday, March 20. Columbia roses and cibotium ferns chiefly composed the wedding decorations at both the church and the home. The table centerpiece was fashioned in spring flowers in the Dresden shades.

Miss Mary Bratner, order clerk for the same firm, is also on the sick list, being afflicted with the grip. Mr. and Mrs. Ernest C. Ludwig have returned from an eastern trip.

Optimistic predictions in regard to Easter business were never more general. Cables from France indicate chiffons at recent prices will look cheap six months from now. Fickle weather conditions make it wise to be prepared for the possibility of a cold Easter. Despite the short supply and high prices of bulbs, ample stocks of Easter lilies are reported in most markets. Of the carnations, rooted cuttings of Enchantress Supreme have been in such request as to suggest the variety is stead- Uy winning new friends. The first action of the new Secretary of Agriculture affecting the trade was the promulgation of the New England quarantine for the corn borer. If your city is not represented in the news columns of The Review and you would like to put it on the map by acting as correspondent, write to the Editor. Those who watch The Review 's growth as an indication of the trade's progress will note that this week 's issue, the largest regular number it has ever published, is within four pages as large as last Christ- mas's special number, which was only surpassed by last week 's record-breaking Easter special. Truly it is said, The Re- view is the paper which grows with the trade. News-letters from the numerous cities in which The Review has correspondents have so generally reported a good sup- ply of lilies for Easter that it has caused observant persons to wonder if the im- ports of lily bulbs last autumn did not exceed the number believed to have been imported, and if the market at Easter will take, at the prices asked, so large a quantity of pot plants and cut flowers. The official Japanese govern- ment figures on the bulbs exported to America last season appear on page 120 of this issue, the first time they have been in print. The total is so huge it will cause much surprise. Prices are never so low that the buyer is not disappointed at poor quality. The time for window boxes is close at hand. Are you making preparations for pushing this business in your locality? Prices of flowers cannot be allowed to go down when coal, freight and express are all shortly to go up. The florists' business improves mar- ■4edly as the units in it become larger. Big business can do easily what small business does only with difficulty. When prices are high everybody knows he is selling at a profitable figure. Do you know how low you can sell and still make money? That knowledge is a pro- tection you should have. "Where are the young faces in the trade?" a far-sighted florist asks. The question is a vital one to those who wish to avoid having their business run down as their own activity diminishes. Abundant stock offers greater oppor- tunities for window decoration than re- tailers had during the winter months. This form of advertising is too valuable for florists to miss the advantage of. There will not always be the equal of this season's demand for plants and the shipper who thinks anything good enough to send to the man who has paid cash in advance will be the first to feel the change. A DAILY paper states: "Chicago an- nounces a reduction in the cost of cut flowers. There is hope that the message of flowers will reach the gentlemen who write the price tags for the beef pack- ers. ' ' If anyone is to hold special flower sales, let it be florists. They can afford to sell large quantities on a small margin as well as the department store when business is slack and the advertising is more valuable to them. * The hopeful eyes of the business world are centered on a bill introduced in the House of Representatives to substitute for the excess profits tax a small tax on the turn-over of all business throughout the United States. It is only a 25-cent tax on every $100 worth of sales or frac- tion thereof, the collection thereof to be performed in a simple manner. The ab- normal condition created by the excess jirofits tax has been felt by florists, even though they did not all pay it themselves. Hard work can remedy high costs and avert possibility of a panic, in the estima- tion of J. H. Tregoe, secretary of the Na- tional Association of Credit Men, who says: "Human energy is necessary if our prosperity is to continue. To add to plant and equipment as an offset to the letting down of human energy is inflation for which a high price must eventually be paid, and every attempt should be made to build up the energies of the people from the least to the greatest. We have no hesitancy in saying that every worker in the land can do much more than he is now doing without impairing his physical welfare. ' * more to the florists' business than mer.. ly growing flowers, even for the ma . who sends his stock to tl^e commissio. house to be sold. The trade has reai ized that the purely business part of florists' enterprise is as important v the part concerned with growing flov ers. Now what is needed is dissemin;. tion of the trade's business informatio. like that of its cultural informatio? An interchange of ideas and experienci on this head will aid tremendously i, the trade's advance. For instance, here is a query from ;; florist with a large business in a gooci- sized town: "We are much dissatisfied with our system of bookkeeping and wish to make a change. Can you give us th;; names of any florists who have a good, sensible, practicable and simple system of keeping their accounts? "At present we are using a Bur roughs bookkeeping machine, but find that it is not exactly suited. We have in mind using a machine on the order of the Elliott-Fisher type. Do you know of any concern using this or a similar machine? "We have in the neighborhood of 1,800 accounts on our books and have that many statements to get out on the first of the month." The Review's columns are open to readers who have suggestions or ex- periences to offer on this subject. BUSINESS INTORMATION, For years it has been habitual for members of the trade to discuss growing problems and for each one to suggest ways and means of improvement for the help of fellow florists. Now it has be- come generally accepted that there is BULES FOR PROPHETS. When one undertakes to play the role of prophet, he is assuming a task that few perform with any degree of luck and none with a consistent record of success. But there are certain rules that can be relied upon with a fair de- gree of accuracy. And the man who ap- plies such rules to the business outlook can arrive at a safe conclusion. For the present situation the case is stated by a writer on business in the follow- ing terms: "In our reading of the future we are compelled to be empirical and draw our conclusions entirely from the record of the past, from which we can deduce only two rules or laws that we can rely upon with safety. "One is the law of average, which men have applied in developing the science of insurance. "The other is the law of reaction or compensation. ' ' The existence of these laws is as cer ^ tain as anything in life. The question is, what will be the result of their oper- i.tion during the present year? "It is certain that prices cannot ad- vance forever and it is equally certairt that business cannot always be pros- perous. "For the last five years the value of money has been diminishing all over tho world and the cost of commodities has been correspondingly advanced. Dur- ing the same five years business has been exceptionally prosperous — at least in this country. "Has the climax been reached? No one can say. But we are justified in pointing out that each day that passes brings the period of reaction nearer anfl that extravagance and underproduction must be hastening its arrival. "This is not a counsel of pessimism, but of caution, offered with a keen con- sciousness of our own limitations as tho ephemeral present fades into the eter- nity of the past."

He was found with iwo knife wounds in his left arm by two -mall boys near the Santa Fe railroad tracks about noon. The boys ran for help and an ambulance was telephoned tor, but Mr. Chollar died in the am- bulance while being taken to the hos- )/ital. One of the arm wounds was near the wrist and the other above the elbow. Xo knife was found on Mr. Chollar 's person or in the vicinity where he was tound; a revolver which had not been discharged was, however, found in his pocket. He was wearing a coat and an overcoat, neither of which had been cut. According to a clerk of the Chollar Floral Co., Mr. Chollar had come to the store early that morning, but soon left in an agitated condition. An inquest was held by a justice of the peace, who fjave a verdict to the effect that death was due to self-inflicted wounds. Mr. Chollar is survived by his wife, n son and two daughters, two brothers, (i. E. and R. F. Chollar, and throe half brothers. His brothers and half broth- ers live in Fort Worth, from which Mr. Chollar moved to Dallas nine years ago. The funeral service was held at the home, 821 North Lancaster avenue, Wednesday afternoon, March 10, with the dean of St. Matthew's cathedral oflSciating. After the service the body was taken to Fort Worth for burial. F. W. Ziechmann. F. W. Ziechmann, one of the oldest members of the trade in Cleveland, O., died at his home Wednesday, March 17, at the age of 72 years. He is survived by a widow and three sons. Mr. Ziechmann was born in Germany, January 30, 1848, where he first became an apprentice. He was with different firms in Germany for a time and then went to France, working in Lyons and Paris. He went back to Germany to the botanical gardens in Berlin and later to the botanical gardens in London, Eng- land. He came to the United States in 1872 and started as a private gardener at Passaic, N. J. He was married there and stayed there until 1876, when he went to Cleveland and started a small place on East Madison street, now East Soventy-ninth street. A year later he began the operation of the greenhouses at the present location, 6520 Quincy street. He started building a range of greenhouses last fall on a farm he pur- chased on Center road, but he did not live to see them completed. Mr. Ziechmann 's hobby was growing <>rchids. The funeral was held Saturday, March 20, at 2 p. m. Interment was at Wood- lawn cemetery. Many beautiful floral pieces were sent by the members of the trade and his j)ersonal friends. W. F. B. Mrs. Frances M. Frank. Mrs. Frances M. Frank, wife of Joseph Frank, a retailer at 764 Third avenue, New Yo?k, .died Saturday, March 13, after a long illness. Besides her husband, she is survived by a daugh- ter, Emilie. Stephen M. Weld. General Stei>hen M. Weld, of Ded- hani, Mass., died suddenly at Boca- grande, Fla., March 17, while on a visit for his health. The deceased gentle- man, who was head of the Boston brokerage firm of S. M. Weld & Co., had a beautiful 1,200-acre estate in Ded- ham, which contained many plants of horticultural interest. His rock garden was probably the largest and most in- terestingly (losigned and planted of any in the east, if not in the entire country, and annually attracted crowds of visi- tors. It contained many rare, unique and valuable plants. General Weld had been connected with the Massachusetts Horticultural Society for over twenty years and for a large i)art of this time served as a director, filling the office of president Mrs. M. R. Moffjan. (()l>ltunrv ill issiu' of Miuch II.' for two years. He was an enthusiastic horticulturist and his death is a dis- tinct loss to horticulture. Funeral serv- ices were held in the Unitarian church, Dedhani, March 21, and wore largely at- tended, there being representatives ]. resent from the Massachusetts Horti- cultural Societv. W. N. C. MICHIGAN FLORISTS MEET. At Agricultural College. An effort to secure an appropriation from the state legislature to be used in an investigation of diseases among greenhouse plants in the state was one of the features of the 2-day session of tlie first annual convention of the Mich- igan . State Florists' Association, held at the Michigan Agricultural College, at East Lansing, Mich., March 16 and 17. The rendering harmless of two of the most serious diseases, aster wilt and the tomato disease, by means of recent dis- coveries, was brought out as an example of what could be done if funds were provided. Dr. H, G. Coons, of the plant pathology department of the Agricul- tural College, urged support by the as- sociation. The exhibits in the armory of dis- plays from all over the state attracted much attention. The Program. The entire morning Tuesday, March 16, was spent in inspecting the exhibits. In the afternoon the first meeting was held. An address of welcome was made by President F. S. Kedzie, of the Michi- gan Agricultural College, and there was an address by H. W. F. Goetz, president of the association. Dean R. S. Shaw then discussed the work of the experi- ment stations. Wednesday morning a tour of the Lansing greenhouses was made, starting from the Kerns hotel at 8 o'clock. In the afternoon Philip Breitmeyer, of De- troit, gave a talk on "Present Day Problems of Retail Florists." Officers Elected. At the closing of the session, the fol- lowing officers were elected for the en- swing j'ear: President, Henry Goetz, Saginaw. Vice-president, W. S. Wells, Ann Ar- bor. Secretary, Robert Plumb, Detroit. The election of trustees resulted as follows: Three-year term, Philip Breit- meyer, Detroit; 2-year ternij Harvey E. Kidder, Ionia; 1-year term, J. A. Bissin- ger, Lansing. During the convention the member- ship of the organization, which has only been formed a few months, was nearly doubled. The aim now is to get the majority of the 600 florists in Michigan to join the association. CHICAGO. Express Service Resumed. Express service returned practically to normal March 24, on which day all embargoes were lifted as far as cut flowers and plants are concerned. The first (lay of unrestricted shipping there was pick-u[i service only until 2 p. m., liut assurances were given that wagons would thereafter be available until the market's closing hour and that full, complete and responsible service would be i)rovi(led for the enormous Easter business which is expected next week. This happy development was duie to tiie efforts of the Chicago Whol^a^e Cut Flower Association, heaiSeVl by it^n Poehlmanu, acting for President A^^. I'oehlmann, and C. J. Michelsen. M^#h 19 conditions had become intoler^g^, the management of the oXpl^fess compMy not only making no effort to give serv- ice, l)ut causing its station and train t>niployees to refuse such service as the company ])lainly was in position to fur- nish. When the wholesalers tried to take the matter up with the officials they met with little cordiality, but par- tial service was resumed March 22 and broadened March 23. By that time the wholesalers had made their determina- tion sufficiently plain so that they got the attention of the highest officials, with the result that it was arranged to resume full service on cut flowers and ]>lants ahead of other freight, thus rec- ognizing the special needs of the mar- ket. The tie up of the express service by the strike, wTiich has not yet been de- clared off, has been a great injury to the trade, but assurances now have been obtained that every possible effort will [Ci)iitinuo(l on piifrc 3H.1 34 I -r^j,- ,;^:'--:'t ' ■p'f".'w ' T-\- >^;.- ,*•; i ;.-■ jn^ ■ -^^ ■ ^ The Florists^ Review "¥.'

Mr. Washburn says the oil section of the southwest is booming, but that in other parts of the south the high prices of flowers last winter gave the trade a set- back. F. M. Johnson, whose .iudgment has been good during the strenuous times of the last five years, says ho can see nothing in sight but steadily rising prices. Mr. Johnson thinks the demands of labor, the greater cost of coal and the certainty of higher freight and ex- press rates are enough to force all other prices up still further, and he believes the autumn will see nearly all lines of merchandise costing more than they cost this spring.

Business has picked up considerably and a slight increase in funeral orders, along with the general buying, has kept the market in a fair condition. Carna- tions continue to arrive in large quan- tities and are of the best quality. Koses are not so plentiful as might be de- sired, but there are enough to satisfy the demand. Easter and calla lilies are making their appearance in quantity in the stores. At present the prices re- main unchanged. For the last three weeks there has been at least one bad wind storm each week. The worst one came Wednesday night, March 17, and, while no serious damage was done to any of Jthe green- houses, a few had a loss of glass and it was cause for the growers to worry about their stock. Thursday afternoon, March 18, another storm came up, a part of tlie gale from Wyoming and Colorado. For a time the dust and sand were thick in the air and everything was soon covered. The soil sifted through the windows, but -did not in- jure the plants or flowers. Various Notes.

They suffered in the storm of last week to the extent of a large number of broken panes of glass, but no stock was injured. Work is progressing rapidly on the new Longview Greenhouses and they are expected to be completed on sched- ule time. A carload of material is now on the ground and no delays are antici- pated. Two new greenhouses, each 25x131 feet, at the Boyd range, have iust been complieted. Mrs. Boyd's business has increased materially. She is soon to have a window display at Kresge's 5 and 10-cent store, where she has had a department for several years. Satur- day, March 20, she sold 3,600 carnations and a week before that, 2,600 and three truck loads of plants. Adolph Mohr's Easter lilies are starting to bloom.

A heavy snowfall took place Friday night, March 19, and again we were apparently in the middle of win- ter. However, the sunshine is consider- ably stronger now and melts the snow and ice quickly.

Lay in all the ribbons, chiffons, baskets and other staple florist supplies you can handle — then sit back and profit by your good judgment. The McCallum Extended Service Can be Depended Upon to the Limit In the hurried preparation for a big Easter business you have probably overlooked one or more items of importance — here's where you can depend upon the McCallum extended service to the full limit. Never was there a more complete line of exclusively florists' supplies gotten together for the trade.

We have never been able to give our cus- tomers all the Peas they wanted at Easter, but we expect to be in a posi- tion to give them to you this year. Most of our growers have a splendid crop in sight, and we see no reason why your orders should not be filled complete. There is no other item on our list for Easter that shows any bet- ter value than Sweet Peas, particularly for corsages.

Fortunately, white flowers were plentiful and the sale was good. Suitable decorations were seen in all florists' windows, with sham- rocks, harps, pipes and green flags in profusion. A herald of spring was seen in the window of Salter Bros, last week, when a large limb of cherry blooms attracted many passers-by. This was placed in the back of the window, with a splendid .selection of potted plants in the fore- ground. H. J. H. PHILADELPHIA. The Market. "I think that the worst is over." William J.

PLUNOSUS Strings anJ BanckM ADIANTUN and Green of all kinds as anything. Supply and demand have been fairly well balanced at the pre- vailing market prices of $6 to $8 per hundred. The chief difficulty with car- nations lies in the splits and culls that are more noticeable at the close of a hard winter. St. Patrick's day had some effect on white carnations, but not enough to advance the price, which did, however, increase in some quarters on the unexpected demand that sprang up at the end of the week, presumably for use in the churches. Sweet peas are exceedingly plentiful. The' price depends a good deal on the quantity desired. For instance, a cus- tomer who wants 100 extra fine peas pays $2.50, while the customer who can use 1,000 can have them for a much lower figure, sometimes for 10 cents, taking them as they run. In other words, sweet peas are plentiful and they deteriorate rapidly when carried long. The general market conditions have been discouraging. Flowers needed a lot of pushing; even then success was only partial. Prices were low and irreg- ular and some stock remained unsold. The outlook for a good supply at Easter is excellent. There will be lots of cut lilies and, given a reasonable amount of sunshine, there will be lots of sweet peas. There will be enough of the other flowers to make up a good assortment. llABCH 25, 1920 The Florists^ Review 49 LILIES The choicest and best quality Easter Lilies ever offered in this market — crisp, firm, well-matured flowers; delivery now, in bud, or more open flowers for nearer Easter. $25 per 100 t":."^. $30 per 100 Everything in Cut Flowers, Plants, Greens, Ribbons and Supplies BUSINESS HOURS, 7 A.

Some fifty years ago William J. Young established himself in the florists' busi- ness at School lane and Pulaski avenue, in Germantown. He built greenhouses and a store, where the residents of the handsome plac?s in his neighborhood could get their cut flowers in winter and their bedding plants in spring. The business prospered. Today his son, William J. Young, Jr., carries on the good work, aided by his better half. The greenhouses, keeping pace with the times, make a specialty of Easter plants. So cleverly are these plants grown that the leading plantsmen draw on Mr. Young for some of his surplus stock. This year the stock is so large that the residents of School lane are going to spare quite a lot to the residents of less favored sections in this and other cities. Dahlias are one of Mr. Young's spe- cialties. He is preparing a carefully selected assortment for planting out at his farm at Linfield. Mr. Young's loy- alty to the finest; bulbs makes his name as well known in certain sections of Holland as it is here. His judgment on varieties and, their culture- is excellent. Tillimn BrowniL The Easter novelty at the place of William K. Harris is the orange-colored lily, Lilium Brownii. Mf. Harris thinks that it will be a great acquisition in hampers and plajat basket combinations.

Among the Philadelphians seen at the New York show last week were Robert A. Craig, Edwin J. Fancourt, E. Faren- wald, James W. Heacock, Frank P. Myers, Martin Samtman, Leonard J. Sieger and C. Vander Breggan. A large shipment of silk fiber ribbons long overdue has prevented H. Bayers- dorfer & Co. from filling orders as ex- pected. Frank R. Hastings says half-humor- ously that the wholesalers and growers have destroyed the flower business by their high prices during the winter. It now remains for the retailers to build it up again. Paul R. Klingsporn, manager of the Chicago Flower Growers' Association, was here March 17, on his way to New York. Philadelphia is proud of Mr. Klingsporn 's success in Chicago. George Craig celebrated his forty- fifth business anniversary at 233 South Eleventh street, March 17, St. Patrick's (lay. The original firm that opened this store in 1875 was Craig & Bro.

Savage, who is a florist in Lewisburg. Isaac M. Bayersdorfer, who has been in the middle west for the last two months, has just returned to this city after an excellent business trip. Mr. Bayersdorfer is so modest that his in- comings and outgoings are rarely her- alded. John Wilson, lately with Ira G. Mar^ vin, of Wilkes-Barre, Pa., has returned to J. J. Habermehl 's Sons. Mr. Wilson, who was absent from this city for a number of years, is one of our ablest and most popular florists. Fred Berger has purchased the Yeakel farm of twenty acres near Arlington station on the Fort Washington branch of the Pennsylvania railroad. Mr. Berger 's new farm is directly opposite to the Sunnybrook Club, profanely known as the millionaires' golf club. It does not require much imagination to picture cozy little dinner tables in the golf club next fall, beautifully deco- rated with dahlias and cosmos, as only a true floral artist can do it. J. P. McCarthy, of the M. Rice Co., is back from New England. His recep- tion was hparty everywhere. Robert B. Bragg and Mrs. Bragg are entertaining a youthful visitor, a little laddie who has come to stay with them. The Jonah steamer, the Westchester from Antwerp, three months overdue, arrived here March 16. It carried mer- chandise for H. Bayersdorfer & Co. Mr. Bayersdorfer said he was glad it did not arrive March 17. The steamer was in two collisions, putting back to Antwerp after the first and into a West Indian port after the second. The florists' .supplies on board included statice, which has been much wanted, artificial valley and beech sprays. For the most part, they have already gone out on orders of long standing. The Robert Craig Co. has put a new Pierce- Arrow truck on the force to help get out the Easter plant orders. The genial Robert Q. Shoch has re- turned to the headquarters of the M.

Some decrease in the arrivals of both roses and carnations is noted and while there is no great amount of business, some improvement has shown itself in prices. Roses, for short-stemmed stock, have advanced to $5 and $6 per hundred, other grades running up to .$35 per hundred, with some fancy Had- ley reaching $50. Carnations are some- what off crop and clean up fairly well at improved prices. Poor grades sell at $3 to $4, with fancies reaching $5 to $8, and Laddie $12 to $15. Violets are abundant and low in price; so are sweet peas. The supply of the latter was surely never so large before at this time of year nor the quality higher. Bulbous stock remains about the same. Lilies move somewhat sluggish- ly; 80 do callas. For Easter delivery 30 to 35 cents per bud is being asked at wholesale.

Monday, March 29, Park Commis- sioner Francis D. Callatiu will estab- lish two municiital flower markets, one on the <'entral I'ark Plaza, at Columbus Circle, near the Maine monument, the other in T'nion Square. The commis- sioner calls this an experiment in the beautiful, with the jiurpose, not so much of giving ojqiortunity for barter, as of giving the jKior and the dweller in three or four rooms a chance to satisfy a longing for flowers at a minimum of ex- pense. If, at the end of a month, it is found that growers do not show appre- ciation of the plan by lending their support or that the public does not take to the idea, the experiment will be dis- continued. Monday and Wednesday of each week are to be regular market days, when the markets will be open from 7 a. m. to ."> p. m., and Saturdays the hours will be from 1 p. m. to 5 p. m.

" 60 The Florists^ Review March 25, 1920 SPRING COTJIbSE AT AMBLEB. "While various state universities are doing much to give men advanced train- ing in floriculture, education for women along that line is available only at pri- vate institutions. One of these, the School of Horticulture for Women, at Ambler, Pa., has issued announcement of its spring course from April 6 to June 26 and a brief summer course from August 2 to August 28. The spring course, in its morning and afternoon sessions, will take up on the different days of the week floriculture, vegetable gardening, fruit growing, school garden- ing, landscape gardening and similar subjects. Floriculture will occupy Sat- urday and, according to the announce- ment, the morning course deals with the propagation of annual and perennial flowers and the planting and care of summer beds and borders and the after- noon course deals with the culture of specific flowers, roses, carnations, sweet peas and other flowers. During the summer course, floriculture will come Monday and Wednesday mornings and Friday afternoons. The tuition charge for the spring course in floriculture alone will be $23, for the entire course $75; board will be $10 per week and lodging $2 to $4 per week. The tuition fee for the entire summer course, including, in addition to floriculture, vegetable gardening, fruit growing and canning and preserving, will be $25; board and lodging will be $12 per week. Since the accommoda- tions are limited, registration should be made early. Akron, O. — E. F. Bartell has bought the greenhouse, in this city, of Mrs. Gertrude A. Starks, who lives in Cuya- hoga Falls. Greenville, S. C. — A controlling in- terest in the Greenville Floral Co. has been purchased by John Dodds and his stepfather, Eobert Lockerbie, who have taken over the properties recently. Mr. Lockerbie was born in Edinburgh, Scot- land, and came to this country and started in business in Philadelphia in his twenties. He has been connected with the trade continuously since that time. Cleyeland, O. — The J. M. Gasser Co., March 11, opened its new branch store, to be run independently under the name of the Annex Flower Shop. The loca- tion is one of the best on Euclid ave- nue for catering to the popular-price trade and the store is well and complete- ly fitted up. From the opening day it has seemed that the throngs of buyers assured the unqualified success of the undertaking.

HOSPITALS. INSTITUTIONS, ETC. FOR RESIDENCES^::: ^ "\ TcCRAY builds refrigerators for every (2/ ' JL kind of business. Thousands of florists' shops, stores, markets, clubs, restau- rants, hotels, hospitals, institutions and homes dei>end on McCray for efficient, economical refrigerator service. For Florist Shops in Particular — McCray Refrig- erators are best because they are made to con- serve flowers, and at the same time give proper display to floral goods. In appearance the McCray will make any floral store more at- tractive. Viewed solely from the selling end, the McCray has su{}erior qualities— for it aids in selling flowers and at the same time puts a stop to waste from spoilage. Remember — Thirty years of continuous development have resulted in the perfected McCray System — by which fresh, cold air is kept in constant circulation through the storage chambers. The McCray System assures perfect preservation of flowers. McCray features of convenience and appearance are of the highest type — and in the McCray you are cer- tain to obtain years and years of satisfactory refrig- erator display service. Only in the McCray will you find concentrated thirty years of unquestioned leader- ship in refrigerator building. Our position of leader- ship is a tribute to McCray quality. Our Catalog, illustrating various models of McCray Refrigerators for Florists, will gladly be sent to your address^just write us for it: No. 74 for Florists; No. 94 for Residences.

Short Supply a Handicap. Another Easter season is here and the retail florist is going to be handicapped this year by lack of the stock which he is accustomed to handle; that is, old stand-bys which he has been in the habit of depending upon^ such as azaleas and rhododendrons, and even lilies are not going to be so plentiful. But this is just where the true florist has his op- portunity. I can remember an old Scotch florist of the time when I was a boy learning my trade, who, when fu- neral work was being made up and flowers were scarce, a frequent occur- rence in those days, and the designer would be complaining of insufficient stock, would say: "My boy, don't you know that is just the reason a man learns the florists' business! Anyone who has plenty of stock can arrange it in a more or less artistic manner, but when stock is scarce it takes a florist to make it into an artistic design." The appearance of the retail store this year will show whether the proprietor is a florist, or whether he just deals in flowers. Beware of Monotony. The fact remains that no matter how Standing Wreath wfatch Artistically Conbines a Variety of Flowers. scarce good plants may be, we are facing a flower day which, according to every indication, will be a record-breaker. There will be the same number of church decorations and these are likely to be more elaborate than ever. In most cases those who have orders for this work will, on account of their hav- ing done it year after year, know their ground fairly well, but it will be wise to remember that, since you may have been doing this work year after year, the same congregation has been watch- ing you and will be quick to notice the sameness. In most church decorations your scheme is necessarily much the same, with the same material to work with. No one will be quicker to notice this than the decorator himself. Many a time after laborious work and deep study I have been disgusted with the effect of decorations about which others have been highly enthusiastic. The point I want to make here is the need of having some outstanding fea- ture in the scheme which will be quick to catch the eye and hold the attention. In most cases this will make your whole plan of decoration serve as a finish to this central feature. For instance, take a cross of from five to ten feet, accord- ing to the space in which you have to place it, made entirely of Easter lilies and plumosus; hang this by wires, alone and with no background whatever, di- rectly over the center of the altar, not straight up and down, but with the top of it leaning toward the congregation. This will have to be studied to get the correct angle, but once you have this in the correct position the rest of your decoration will be easy. This will be the first thing to catch the eye of the worshipers as they come in and we all know that first impressions are every- thing. Decorating Windows. There will be many smaller jobs, such as memorial windows to be decorated, and here again a little change, some- thing different, will always be appre- ciated. I remember a church in the neighborhood of our store; every win- dow in it was a memorial window; the congregation was one of the most exclu- sive and wealthy in the city. It was our business every Easter to decorate most of these windows. Everyone wanted something different from his neighbor and, on one occasion, I at- tracted much comment on one of these windows. We had a few frames of the old English daisies at the range, pink and white, and we had a wire frame that had been made for one of the win- dows to fill with cut flowers. We lifted the daisies and filled them into this frame with wet moss about the roots. In the center I had one of William K. Harris ' pans of Harrisii lilies. This had thirty open flowers on it besides the buds. To cover up the pot we cut sev- eral astilbes and put them in the moss- MlBCH 20, 1020 The Florists' Review 69 ThmnorM» whos* o«rd« avVMT on th* pact* earryl&c Oils ]i«ad« ****- from otbar floflata for looal doUYwrj oa th» filled frame, foliage and all. It was our habit to drape the upper portion with garlands of smilaz, but on this occasion the lady for whom it was done asked me to omit that part of the decoration. She claimed that it would detract from the general effect and, as I went to the other side of the church and looked at the window, I recognized the wisdom of her request. Don't Overdo It. Tho point I wish to emphasize is that many a creditable decoration is spoiled because the decorator does not stop soon enough. Another window of the same kind was done with yellow pan> sies, with standard genistas in the center. Where a decorator is in the habit of doing certain work year after year, it will be continually on his mind. He may run across something as early as Christmas that will suggest his Easter work to him and, if there is merit in the plan, he will have it improved upon and by the time Easter arrives it is only a matter of executing his plan. But some new orders may come in when it is late and he is busy. Above all things, he should spare the time to go and study the surroundings he will be obliged to work in. This may be his first order; he is going to make a new customer by the big decoration, and he should not overlook the prospects that will be among those who admire the work. Whatever the decoration may be, above all things let it be neat. I do not mean by this that it should be in any way cramped or uniform; let it be loose and airy, but let it always con- form to a well defined plan. Tate. COMBmiNO VARIOUS FLOWEBS. Too often the mistake is made in de- signs and decorations of using one flower so much to the exclusion of others that the effect is overdone and the pleas- ing quality is lost. To combine variety of effect with the predominance of one or two kinds ' of blooms, is far more pleasing to the customer and, in reality, of greater advantage to the florist. Of course, there will always be those who demand a casket cover of orchids and nothing else, just as there are those who wear an excessive amount of jewelry, whose object is to produce a quite dif- ferent effect than that desired by the florist, the artistic. For customers who make such demands the florist will al- ways do his best. He has to cope with far more difficult eccentricities than these. But when left to his own de- vices he will find greater range, in fu- neral work particularly, in combining various kinds of flowers in one piece. In the illustration on page 68 is shown a standing wreath in which lilies and roses are conspicuous enough to pre- dominate, but not employed so exclu- sively that their use seems overdone. The other flowers used to fill in are of various sorts, so that none of them seems at all conspicuous. The result is one of pleasing variety, with the lilies and roses sufficiently dominating the effect. The standing wreath illustrated was from the store of W. J. Smyth, who caters to the best south side trade in The Real Truth about who originated the phrase "Say It with Flowers*' This morning I woke of a sudden Just at daylight. And what do you think woke me? A robin. A cheer-chirking, song-filled lad, who sat on the top of an'evergrfien and told his drowsy lassie what a beauteous thing was spring and flowers. In billing it to her, he likewise told it to me. With its telling came thoughts of chubby fists, tightly holding meadow flowers picked for teacher. Not that in those days of childish long ago, that I so much appreciated flowers, but that I knew my teacher knew they said for me, what I couldn't say for myself. When you and I talked together at Valentine's day. it was agreed that the dear old monk, Valentina Valentia, originated 'Say it With Flow- ers;" although we did, however, give full credit t« Penn and Major O'Keefe, for recognizing its surpassing fitness for the S.

T. D. 520 Fourth Street for payment came, but more than one member of the retail trade has gained, rather than lost, financially, as a result of the simple business analysis required by the tax regulations. In this trade, perhaps more than in some others, it has been easy for the small retailer to go along from day to day ordering his stock on a guesswork basis and relying on a kind of mental bookkeeping to keep his accounts straight. He could sense the general demand, but he did not know exactly which flowers and which plants were most profitable. He kept reasonably out of debt and was well thought of by those who had business dealings with him, but he did not really know where he was at, nor did he stop to realize that he did not know. If he grew all or part of the stock he sold, his work in the greenhouse made such demands on him that a regular system of bookkeeping would have seemed a waste of precious energy. Bookkeeping suggests the en- tering of the same figures in several books in several ways; he naturally avoided anything so complex and, so far as he could see, so useless. Every Little Bit Counts. It may be said that such a retailer was wise in avoiding elaborate business methods and devoting as much time as possible to the actual selling. A good trade experience would tend to make his judgment sound and his estimates nearly correct. But the trouble would come in the cumulative effect of all the year's little inaccuracies. The total re- sult of a large number of orders for stock which, when it came, was not all moved at regular prices and had to be sold at a reduction or thrown away would be a quite appreciable loss. So, too, the other little misjudgments would mount up and, by the end of a year, would have a decided effect on the net profits. The trouble would be, not that any one thing was wrongs but rather just a little bit here and there.

He could not make proper returns, because he did not have the records on which to base them. This may have been true even if he was doing a quite good-sized business; the stock and the money passed through his hands in large amounts, but were not sufficiently re- corded. But the government sent an investi- gator. If there were no written records to guide him, he took an inventory, watched the operation of the business, cross-examined the retailer as to its de- tails and finally estimated the income and profits. Probably the estimate seemed unfair, but the recordless re- tailer had no way to disprove it. So he resolved that next year he would have his defense ready in the actual total figures. To do this does not require a compli- cated, or apparently complicated, sys- tem of double-entry bookkeeping. As a matter of fact, no system of book- keeping is really complicated; its es- sence and purpose is rather simplicity. The trouble is that most people look at it wrong-end-to. It is true that the figures for the year start out with a host of individual items from the in- ventory and build up toward grand totals. But the analysis of a system works the other way around. It recog- nizes first what totals are wanted and why; then it works downward through the details to pick out and classify the items needed for the purpose in view. A Bit of Bookkeeping. In order to ^t the figures required for the income tax returns, one needs simply to make careful inventories at the beginning and the end of the year and to keep accurate records of sales, expenses and purchases. The first in- ventory plus purchases during the year shows the amount of stock which the store had for sale during that period, in cost figures. This total minus the in- ventory at the end of the year gives the cost price of the stock which was sold. Then the net profit, on which the tax is figured, is calculated by adding the expense total to the cost of stock sold and subtracting that sum from the gross sales. This may be somewhat simplified by Mabch 25, 1920 The Florists^ Review 73 Thm flortota niioM oaida mpomr on fb* pac** cmrryiam this bMtd, ar« prsparad to fiUl ordors firom oOmv florlat* for looal doUTory on tho nmal ImwIo. as ^ Attention — Mr. Retailer!

FOR THIRTY YEARS THE LEADING FLORIST IN THIS EXCLUSIVE COMMUNITY expression in brief formulas, using the following symbols: IB — inventory at beginning of year. IE — inventory at end of year. SP — stock purchased during year. SO — stock offered for sale during year, in cost figures. SS — stock sold during year, in cost figures. GS — gross sales for the year, E — expenses for the year. NP — net profit for the year. Then the method of calculation al- ready described may be expressed in three simple equations, as follows: IB+SP=SO SO— IE=SS. GS— (SS+E)=NP, Or these may be simplified into one: GS+IE— IB— SP— E=NP. Consequently, w^hen at the end of the vear the retailer has before him the five essential facts, namely, the totals of the two inventories, the amount of stock purchased, the expenses for the year and the gross sales, the net profits can be found at once by substracting the sum of the totals for the first inventory, the stock purchased and the expenses from the sum of the totals for the gross sales and the second inventory. In applying this method to his own business, the individual retailer may want to subdivide the fiscal period and not wait till the end of the year to know where ho stands. He may, also, prefer to use a system of stock-keeping records and do away with some of the inven- tories. One point that will be of assistance in keeping the necessary records will be the exclusive use of a check book. If all the money that is received is deposited in the bank, instead of being used di- rectly to pay expenses, and if every pay- ment is made by check, with a record on the stub of the important facts about each payment, the keeping of the nec- essary records of income and expenses will be made much easier. Where It Leads. While the simple method of calcula- tion which has been outlined will be enough to satisfy the income tax col- lector, the retailer is not likely to atop there. His natural curiosity about his own business will be aroused. He will analyze the records for particular seasons and particular lines of trade, even for particular flowers and plants. He will compare his cash business and his charge business, his local trade and his telegraph trade.

The writer knows of one instance where a street vender bought 3,000 carnations for $90. This shows the confidence this class of merchants have in the business. A street man has bought the entire crop of lilies of one of the prominent growers here for Easter. The consideration in this contract is in the neighborhood of $1,500. This contract was made around March 1; yet some of our oldest retail- ers will be complaining about their in- ability to get stock for Easter. The establishments that handle baskets have not been able to keep their lines at anything near normal. The manager of one place gave the reason that there are going to be more made-up baskets of plants this year than were ever known before and that advance or- ders for Easter were coming in slowly.

Everyone should be able to estimate approximately at least the number of plants he can use for Easter and it would be that much off his mind to have orders placed. There will be a fair sup- ply of hydrangeas and the wise buyers are already picking out the choicest of these. One wholesaler said that he would have a good stock of valley, but the public has been so long without it that he did not know how it would sell. Bulbous stock will be in fair supply, as will roses and carnations. There is not going to be anything like a glut of any single item of stock. Various Notes. The local advertising committee is working hard and now has its plan in working order. Monday, March 15, those who had signed up found either one-half of one per cent deducted or one per cent added to their statements. The committee has added to the list since the last meeting several of the largest growers and retailers. It will only be a matter of a short time until everyone will be in.

The lilies are in fine shape and he will have a big cut of the Welsh quality of sweet peas and a fairly good quantity of bulbous stock. Mr. Welsh rarely misses it for any of the big flower days. Another old reliable who always can be depended upon is James Glass. We are all familiar with his hyacinths at Easter; there is something about his stock that is different; the pots are clean, the foliage is always perfect, the blooms are fine and he has a knack of having just the right colors. Mr. Glass will have a fine batch of lilies and hy- drangeas, to saying nothing of smaller blooming plants.

In a conversation with him a short time ago he told me that next season he intended to discard some of his old varieties and replace them with Premier and Columbia.

The Market. With the improved weather of a week ago, there was a feeling that a flood of stock would be arriving and that it could be expected that lower prices would prevail. This belief brought out special sales, some of which were at prices of about one-fifth of those of the previous week. In fact, roses were of- fered as low as 75 cents per dozen and carnations at 60 cents per dozen. The market during the week was well supplied with a variety of stock. Prices held comparatively firm, especially for good stock. Second quality stock could be had at lower figures than those of last week. This was due to a decrease in funeral work. London, Ont., Can.

MILLER & SON extra fine stock is seen on the market. Green stock has been on the short side, but this difficulty has been overcome. The proximity of this market to the Florida growers of Asparagus plumosus has been a blessing the last season. With the high prices of flowers, the situ- ation was often modified by adding plenty of greens. The southern greens are produced at a minimum cost and can be handled at about one-half of MOLINE, ILL.

In the annual prosperity edition of the Anaheim Daily Herald Howard E. Gates, besides contributing a page upon the flowers and plants which embellish Anaheim, appears before the public eyes in the following paragraphs: There are few residents of northern Orange county who are not acquainted with the fact that Howard B. Gates, florist and landscape gardener, who maintains a spacious nursery and gardens on Illinois and West Center streets, Anaheim, has given over more than a score of years to the art of landscape gardening, as well as the grow- ing of various plants, shrubs and flowers. Mr. Gates, who aided Uncle Sam in the recent war, also served his country during the Mexican trouble some years ago. He is well versed in army tactics and has been active as a National Guard member. Together with the growing of plants and flow- ers, Mr. Gates features ornamental and floral designs, as well as catering to the wants of those interested in the art of landscape gar- dening. The appearance of many Orange county homes has been greatly improved through the addition of shrubs and ornamental plants, as well as the general landscape work done by Mr. Gates. So familiar and experienced Is Mr, Gates In this work, that he has been asked to write many ar- ticles on the subject of plants and shrubs, all of which are held as highly beneficial by the home owners of Anaheim. LOS ANGEUIS, CAL. The Market. Stormy weather, with heavy rains and rough winds, made it even more difficult last week than the week before to get good shipping stock of carnations and the wholesale houses at the end of the week were crowded with stock which was not good enough to stand a day's journey. Complaints of nonarrival and of arrival in poor condition have been frequently received from Arizona and other places having more favorable weather, but it is a condition which cannot be remedied. Greenhouse roses are fairly plentiful and of good quality. Lilies promise well for Easter, but the price is high and there will not be sufficient cuts to fill the orders. Callas will bo fairly abundant and will help out somewhat. In bulbous stock, late daffodils, irises, Narcissus poeticus and tulips are the most effective, but the supply will be short for Easter. Local retail business has fallen off somewhat, but shipping keeps up well when good stock can be obtained. Various Notes. Among the growers of colored free- sias, Gilbert Prechtl has been working for several years at hybridizing and seedling raising. He has evolved his Sunset collection of varieties and is showing elegant flowers from his 1-year- old seedling bulbs. The flowers are borne on long, wiry stems and are ex- ceedingly bright and telling in color, showing a wide range. The yellows and reds are particularly good, dull and un- satisfactory colors having been culled out annually. In spite of the increas- ing competition among the growers of these beautiful flowers, Mr. Prechtl has something quite distinct and espe- cially good as a cut flower. Walter Garbett, who for three years has been connected with W. Armacost ft Co., managing the cut flower depart- ment, has taken a position as manager for Frank Lichtenberg. Mr. Garbett is well known as an experienced florist and good business man and his friends will all wish him the best of success in the important position which he now holds. H. Suzuki, president of the Yokohama Nursery Co., of Japan, was in the city last week, in company with C. W. Scott, of the New York office of this firm. Mr. Scott was notified by wireless to meet Mr. Suzuki, the message coming from the mid-Pacific to New York city. After a tour of this country and Europe, Mr. Suzuki will return to Japan.

A. AXELL, WHOLESALE COMMISSION FLORIST 463 Bosh St., San Francisco, Calif. J. Dieterich has purchased a 10-acre tract in the San Fernando valley and proposes to plant a considerable part of it to Erica melanthera and other stock. The big shipment of aspidistras has all been planted out at the Winters- bury nursery. Burns the Florist has moved from the basement on Third street to the store above. This change gives him more room, which was much needed, and a far better chance for display. Mr. Burns has been on Third avenue for several years and, in a quiet way, has worked up a good business. Angelo Tassano is going to build three more greenhouses for maidenhair fern at his Artesia nursery. Mr. Tassano is sending in excellent maidenhair, grown in Pacific humus, and he has placed orders for another large consignment of the humus as soon as the new houses are ready. F. R. Hills, of the Hills Nursery, is on the sick list. St. Patrick's day al- most every second person on the streets was carrying a shamrock grown by Mr. Hills for the Hibernian bank, which an- nually gives away many thousands to all comers. Mr. Hills has grown these for many years. The Cedar Nursery Co. had a decided- ly attractive lot of Easter lilies, about 4,000, and the sold-out sign was on them early. Mr. Kimura is a skillful and careful grower of plants and the lilies this year were a fine, even lot. H. R. Richards. SAN FRANCISCO, CAL. The Market. The coast rains during the last few weeks, which are practically the first of the season, have come as a great relief to growers. The outside crops have been greatly helped, while the inside crops have profited by the added mois- ture. The prices on roses and other cut flowers dropped a little lower last week, on account of the supply of spring flowers now on the market. The second crop of roses is abundant and in splen- did condition. The supply of Ophelia and Columbia is especially good. Rus- sell is not so plentiful as it has been recently. Due to Lent, the demand for large supplies of flowers has been lacking, but Easter promises to open up the best season yet known in San Francisco. Daffodils are greatly in demand and are steadily increasing in price. They We will give yoii SATISFACTION Not only in PRICE BUT EVERY OTHER WAY. Keep in touch with us for everything in the trade.

The second crop is reported in good shape, but not yet equal to the demand. Pink, red and white carnations are plentiful. St. Patrick's day brought a great demand for green carnations, as there were several Irish celebrations held through the bay region. Violets are still plentiful and still in demand, especially among the eastern tourists. There is a lessening of the local sup- ply of orchids, which has caused a con- siderable advance in the price of these blooms during the last week. The supply of spring flowers is excellent; both wholesale and retail dealers have a good selection of lilies of the valley, marigolds, tulips and anemones.

With a steady increase in the supply of spring flowers, more weddings and small social affairs and an automobile show, everything has worked to pro- duce more business for the Seattle flo- rists during the last week, with the re- sult that general satisfaction is ex- pressed over the present conditions. Funeral work has held up in fairly good style, but the passing of the influenza epidemic has curtailed this to a notable degree. Roses, violets, greens and some spring offerings are still arriving from the south regularly, but the local growers are coming nearer to supplying the trade needs and Spokane and Portland grow- ers fill in a good share of the remainder of the shipments. Local violets were offered last week. Local greenhouses were also offering flowering Japanese plum branches for windows and large table decorations. The local cut of or- chids is increasing and the quality has been about the best that local traders can remember. Gardenias are more plentiful and enough lily of the valley is received to fill all needs. Columbia still leads the local cut of roses as to volume, with Ophelia a close second and Ward and Premier about even. The Ward stock has been of exceptional color and proved enough contrast with the pink varieties to sell especially well. Laddie carnations from Spokane growers continue to top the market as to price, but the other stocks are show- ing up better, in color, strength of stem and keeping qualities. White carnations were in big demand at the California Flowers and Greens of all kinds are being used generally by Eastern Florists.

Prices, in some in- stances, are perhaps a little lower, but they are holding up exceedingly well. Eoses are plentiful and of excellent quality. They are all sold out every day. Sweet peas are meeting with a ready sale and there are plenty of them. Tulips are beginning to arrive and, in a short time, will be plentiful. Many potted plants are being sold and there are some fine specimens in the local stores. The weather is fine and, if it continues, there will be a large supply of flowers of all kinds in a few days. i' Various Notes. > James.

A DKiVE for 1920 thrift gardens, the successors to war gardens, has been begun by the Department of Agriculture, which may somewhat increase home planting. Vegetable growers are not such heavy buyers of seed this year as formerly, since most of them have been forced to reduce their plantings because of inability to secure help. C. W. Scott, of the Yokohama Nursery Co., returned to New York March 18, accompanied by H. Suzuki, of the Yoko- hama headquarters of the concern, whom he had met in Seattle. Benjamin F.

He is getting along well and expects to be on his feet soon. JAPAHUSE LILY BULBS. The 1919 Crop Imports. In view of the high prices at which giganteum and other Japanese lily bulbs sold last fall, and of the present high prices of pot plants and cut lilies, the figures as to the number of lily bulbs exported from Japan to America in 1919, here published for the first time, mil be of much interest: Month of Bulbs exported July. 1810 481.040 August, 1919 455,in0 September, 1919 4,448,190 October, 1919 3,879,062 November. 1919 708,952 December. 1919 105,875 Total for season 10.078,689 These are the ofiicial figures of the bulbs inspected by the Japanese govern- ment and certificated for export to America from Yokohama and Kobe. The figures include formosum and ru- brum as well as giganteum, but the bulbs, of course, were in great part of the latter variety. A commercial report gives the ex- port from Japan in 1919 at 11,475,689 bulbs. A crop of 10,000,000 to 11,000,000 ex- portable bulbs would represent almost half a pre-war year's crop, but 10,000,- 000 for America would represent a prac- tically full supply, America never hav- ing taken much over half of the crop prior to 1914. That the American sup- ply should have been so great in face of the short crop and the competition of English buyers, who appear, however, to have been unwilling to meet Ameri- can bids, will be a great surprise to many. The 1920 Crop. It is reported that the 1920 crop of cultivated lily bulbs in Japan, meaning principally giganteums, may be expected to approximate 15,000,000 exportable bulbs, principally of the grade 7 to 10. This will compare with pre-war crops of 20,000,000 to 22,000,000 bulbs. The Japanese feel that they can not afford to grow lilies at less than last year's prices and, indeed, they are ask- | Tested Proven Seeds Early View of Onr Trial Grounds Did you ever sow Peacock's Flower Seeds?

Two Japanese bulb merchants, H. Suzuki, of the Yokohama Nursery Co., and E. Yamamoto, vice-president of the Satsuma Trading Co., recently have ar- rived in the United States to study the situation. Mr. Yamamoto 'a visit represents a development which had been foreseen by some observers of last year's bulb market in Japan. It was then suggested that the bulbs rose in value so rapidly after they passed out of the producers' hands that it would be likely to cause the growers to want to get into closer touch with the dealer and consumer in America. It has done just that. The Satsuma Trading Co., which Mr. Yama- moto represents, has been organized at the Chamber of Commerce at Kagoshima, its members representing a large part of the annual production of lily bulbs, to deal direct with the jobbers in America, instead of through brokers and export- ers in Japan. On his trip, which began at Seattle, Mr. Yamamoto will call on the principal lily bulb dealers all the way to Philadelphia, New York and Bos- ton. He speaks little English and is piloted by S. Osaka, of the Dai-Fuku Trading Co., Seattle. NAPIEB GRASS SEED. Packets of Napier grass seed and Merker grass seed are being distributed through portions of the extreme south and California by the United States De- partment of Agriculture for the purpose of widely introducing tliese closely related plnnts, whose value, especially as green fodder for dairy cattle, is now well established. Accompanying the al- lotments of seed are instructions for planting and the making of cuttings in order that the growers can take care of their own and their neighbors' future needs. Napier grass was first introduced by the United States Department of Agriculture in 1913 from Africa and Merker grass somewhat later. Experi- mental plantings have shown that they will thrive south of a line drawn from Charleston, S. C, to Shreveport, La., also in the southern portions of Texas, Arizona and New Mexico and in por- tions of California. lily of the Valley Pips Elxtra Selected German Type Just a few cases left which we offer at reduced price to clean up 2500 Pips to the Case, per 1000, $30.00 DUTCH BULBS Write us for our special prices VAN MEEUWEN & TEGELAAR 1133 Broadway NEW YORK Nurseries: Lisse, Holland Mention Tbe Berlew when roa write.

As forage plants both grasses are still regarded as being in the experimental stage, but federal scientists state they are both valuable, though further data as to their value in comparison with Japanese sugar cane, corn and sorghum are needed. Attention is called to the fact that attempts have been made to apply other names to Napier grass, namely, Japanese bamboo grass and Car- ter grass. The use of these names is not desirable, according to the government's representatives. Some of the advertise- ments setting forth the value of these grasses are probably too enthusiastic, but that the grasses are valuable new assets is clearly demonstrated. BREACH or CONTRACT. In Sale of Beans. It has been said by some judge that "the law will not permit juries to guess money from one man's pocket into an- other's." In other words, where suit is brought to recover damages for breach of a commercial contract, the plaintiff must prove a basis upon which his damages may be assessed with rea- sonable certainty. It is not sufficient for him to rest on his oars when he shows that the defendant has broken his contract. The point is illustrated by a decision handed down recently by the New Mex- ico Supreme court in the case of R. W. Rounsavall & Co. vs. H. Herstein Seed Co.. 186 Pacific Reporter, 1078. The plaintiff sued the defendant for $1,670 as damages for lost profits on a carload of pinto beans contracted to be sold to the defendant. The contract was made through a telegram from the plaintiff to the defendant, offering to sell "at 15 cents f. o. b. Trinidad, Colo.," and the defendant's acceptance, "at 15 cents Trinidad." The plaintiff's place of business was at Lexington, Ky., and the defendant's at Clayton, N. M. It does not appear to have been dis- puted at the trial that the defendant refused to accept delivery and that the plaintiff sold the beans to dealers in Kentucky. Nominal Damages. At the trial the plaintiff offered no evidence as to the market value of the pinto beans at Trinidad at the date of the breach of the contract, nor as to his inability to sell them there. The trial court awarded nominal damages only, because of this failure of proof, and the plaintiff appealed to the Supreme court, which affirmed the action of the lower court, saying: "Plaintiff contends, as we under- stand counsel, that Trinidad, Colo., was not the place of delivery, but simply a point in transit. We agree with the trial court, however, that under the ^^p^^gift*-^-^* ■*- . • ..... y V^ .j^^mA *' -• r# ?5S »;*":"«' ->»:>*'%;>**^?'^T*£* ^anwittmt^jt ?^'''*%:3i^J?''fci?:*::^ '. • {, » ?

Clemens, Mich. evidence offered by plaintiff, Trinidad, Colo., was the point of delivery. Under the contract, title to the carload of beans would pass from the seller to the buyer at Trinidad, Colo. "Plaintiff argues that the measure of damages was the difference between the sale price and the amount which the plaintiff was able to get for the beans after notice to the defendant of his in- tention to sell and after exercise of rea- sonable diligence in attempting to sell the beans at the best price obtainable. The general rule is well established that the measure of damages in such a case is the difference between the mar- ket value of the goods at the time and place of delivery and the contract price.

' ' Three violations of the federal quar- antine prohibiting the shipment of cur- rants, gooseberries and white pine from states east of and including Minnesota, Iowa, Missouri, Arkansas and Louisiana to the western states were discovered by agents of the United States Depart- ment of Agriculture during the fall of 1919," states the weekly news-letter of the department. "It was ascertained upon investigation that the nurseries making the shipments did not willfully violate the quarantine, but were igno- rant of the regulations. Violations of the federal quarantines are punishable by a fine not exceeding $500 or by im- prisonment not exceeding one year, or both. "The purpose of this quarantine is to prevent a destructive disease of the 5-needled pines, commonly called the white-pine blister rust, from reaching the western states and attacking the extremely valuable western white-pine and sugar-pine forests. This disease may be carried from one state to an- other upon 5-needled pines or upon any species of currant or gooseberry bushes. All nurserymen, therefore, are urged to cooperate with the Department of Ag- riculture in enforcing this quarantine and thus prevent the disease from reach- ing the western forests." GERMINATINa J UJNIPERUS SEED. Temperature Important. Nurserymen find considerable diffi- culty in getting good yields of vigorous seedlings from seeds of various species of juniperus. Even the usual stratifica- tion gives rather poor results. There- fore, a thorough study of the germina- tion and of the seedling development of several species of juniperus seeds was conducted, for the purpose of finding the cause of these difficulties and of getting the best method of handling these seeds. A great amount of work done in vari- ous laboratories shows that many seeds will not germinate readily when first harvested, but that they must go through certain changes preparatory to germina- tion. The necessary changes for ger- mination have been termed after-ripen- ing. Many seeds have embryos that are ready to grow as soon as the seeds are ripe, but surrounding structures (seed coats, etc.) prevent growth. In such cases immediate germination can be se- cured by the use of various chemicals and other forcing methods. Other seeds have embryos that are dormant and will not gr6w when entirely naked and fur- nished germination conditions. In these, cases the embryos must go through a series of fundamental chemical and physical changes in the germinator be- fore they are ready to germinate. The after-ripening in these seeds takes con- siderable time. Juniperus seeds are of this type and the after-ripening takes place fastest in a germinator at 39 or 41 degrees, Fahrenheit. Low Temperature Best. Not only does this seed after-ripen at about 41 degrees, but it also germinates most rapidly at this low temperature. Seeds will germinate slowly at 50 de- grees, but at temperatures above 60 de- grees they are thrown into a state of secondary dormancy and refuse to ger- minate. There are a few seeds in a hun- dred or thousand that will germinate at temperatures above 60 degrees. This fact accounts for the one per cent ger- GARDEN BORDERED WITH BOX-BARBERRT.

Over seventy-five per cent of the juniperus seeds were made to germinate by ob- serving the procedure outlined in this article, thus increasing the percentage of germination many fold. Seeds are freed from the fruit by mill- ing, but care should be taken not to crack the coats. Then the seeds are rubbed between two sieves in the pres- ence of an abundance of water. This removes the gums and adhering parts of the fruit, leaving the seeds perfectly PEONIES STRONG DIVISIONS, 3 TO 5 EYES Have been stored over winter in our cellars and are in good dormant condition.

H. S. BRANDT, York, Pa. clean. After the seeds are dry they should be sterilized in five per cent formalin for two and one-half minutes and thoroughly washed several times with boiled water that has been cooled. Transfer to Higher Temperature. The seeds are then put into petri dishes or other covered flat vessels on filter paper supported by wet cotton, which furnishes an abundance of mois- ture for germination. These vessels of seeds are kept at a constant tempera- ture of about 41 degrees for after-ripen- ing, which takes 100 to 110 days. This after-ripening period can be shortened ten days by drying slightly and mois- tening again the seeds at about the forty-fifth day. When the coats have split open and the hypocotyls are one- eighth inch long, the seedlings are transferred to pans of leaf-mold and kept at 60 degrees. These pans are pre- pared in the ordinary way, using leaf- mold and sand. If a glass plate and paper are placed over the pan to protect the seedlings from drying and from di- rect light, the hypocotyls soon penetrate the soil and erect the cotyledons. When the seedlings are about one and one-half inches high, touching the glass plate, ! they are put into separate small pots or beds containing relatively more sandy soil and less leaf-mold. One should, however, transfer the seeds when the coats have split open from the germina- tor at 41 degrees direct to beds at 60 de- grees, if they are protected for the first few days. Though these seeds have been ger- minated every month in the year, one can take advantage of the temperature conditions by placing them in the ger- minator about January. If this is done, one has less bother in keeping the ger- minator at a constant temperature of about 41 degrees. The importance of this after-ripening and germination at this temperature cannot be overemphasized. Dean A. Pack. Sapulpa, Okla. — Mr. and Mrs. C. L.

The people of this city are to have greatly improved facilities for obtain- ing flowers, -which is just another way of saying that the consumption of flow- ers in this prosperous community will increase rapidly. The new facilities will take the form of two downtown stores, the first here. The Hasselbring brothers, who operate greenhouses as Hasselbring, Florist, have leased a well located store in the Durand Hotel building and are fitting it up with the expectation of opening a well-appointed store about May 1. Thus far they have retailed only at the green- houses. Vogt & Son, of Coldwater, looking about for the best opportunity for broadening their field, have arranged for opening a store in Flint. Not find- ing a suitable store, they have bought a residence which happened to be well located for their purpose and are re- modeling it for flower store purposes. It will be part store, part workroom and part dwelling, an admirable arrange- ment for one who wants always to be on the job. Both the new stores are being fitted up, with refrigerators and fixtures, by the store equipment department of the A. L. Randall Co., Chicago. Columbia City, Ind.— The Wagner Floral Co. is cutting some extra fancy Spencer sweet peas and expects a heavy crop in a short time. For the wholesale market, it is growing a large number of geraniums and other bedding stock. Badne, Wis. — This city now can boast of a flower store second to none in ^places of this siz? and excelled by few in the metropolises. March 20 Beil & Benz, who trade as The Flower Shop, opened their new home. They have a large store and artistic surroundings. All the fixtures were built to order by the A. L. Randall Co., Chicago.

The average grower of ChrrBanthemams mast have varieties which are easy to handle and from which he can cut as near 100% of perfect blooms as possible. Hambarc Lat« Pink has been grown for the last four years, and produces a very high proportion of good flowers. It is not an exhibition variety, but for late pink Is one of the best for commercial purposes. It can be had In bloom the latter part of November by taking an early bud, but some of the flowers will show open centers. By selecting late buds, after October 1, most of the flowers are cut during December, and would advise to select late buds, as the later buds will hardly ever show an open center, and some flowers can be had even In January.

When information is desired regarding the capacity of boil- ers, or the amount of radiation required for a greenhouse, the needed temperatures should be stated in the inquiry, as well as the amoimt of glass in the side walls, and the dimensions and general arrange- ment of the greenhouses. It is often help- ful, also, to have a sketch showing the location of the houses. OIL FOB HEATINa HOUSES. Because of the scarcity of coal, would it be wise and economical to use oil for fuel in a greenhouse? "What equipment is needed to heat the house at ordinary temperatures? I understand that oil, after gasoline and kerosene have been extracted, can be bought at a greatly reduced price and, consequently, I should be especially interested to know about the installation and maintenance of such a heating system. Are there any heating plants of this kind in op- eration? E. W. U.— Mich. In several eastern states, as well as in the west and southwest, distillate is generally used as fuel for heating greenhouses, with quite satisfactory re- sults. The economy in its use of course depends largely upon the relative cost of coal and oil. When one uses oil there is a large saving in the expense of firing and in the removal of ashes. The same boilers may be used, the only change being the removal of the grates, and often this is not done. The special equipment for the burn- ing of oil depends in part upon the size of the heating system. For boilers heating 1,000 square feet of radiation, or less, simple and comparatively inex- pensive burners have been invented. The barrel in which the oil was shipped may be used as a reservoir or a tank holding fifty to 100 gallons may be used. Simply connect the reservoir with the burner, which is placed on the grate in the fire pot. With large greenhouse ranges, for which oil is shipped in tank ■cars, a tank wagon and a storage tank which has the same capacity as the tank cars should be provided. For such plants it is necessary to use burners in which a jet of either steam or air is furnished. An electric air com- pressor will supply the air jet. The burner is placed just above the level of the grate, with the end through which the oil is sprayed just inside the fire door, so that the jet of oil will be well scattered through the fire pot. There are several forms of oil burners, the most common having the oil pipe in the center. This is connected with the oil reservoir and another pipe runs either to a reservoir containing com- pressed air or to a steam boiler. Both pipes should have valves, so that both the supply of oil and the steam or air pressure can be controlled. HEATINO BY HOT-AIB FLX7E.

Could this house be heated by the following plant I want to maintain a temperature at night of 50 to 55 degrees when it is 10 degrees below outside. In the northwest corner I plan to dig a pit two feet below the grade line, large enough to receive a brick fur- nace with a fire box 2x3 feet.

This would allow a bench on each side and on the east end, with the flue under it and out of the way. A solid bed eight feet wide through the middle would complete the arrangement. But will it work? J, T.— 111. Judging from the size of fire pot sug- gested, it is evidently proposed to use coal as fuel. Goal gas is injurious to plants and if much of it is allowed to escape from the fire door, as would al- most be necessary, it would be fatal to the plants in the house. There would also be great danger that it would escape from cracks in the furnace or flue, which would be almost certain to open. For this reason it would be in- advisable to use a coal-heated flue, especially one with the fire door inside the greenhouse. The furnace would need to be built so that cracks would not be likely to occur in the outer wall and the flue should be enclosed with a gas-tight outer wall for a distance of fifteen or twenty feet, as there would otherwise be trouble from the cracking of the tile. Serious trouble might also be ex- pected from lack of draft when starting the fire. The draft could be aided by building a small fire pot at the base of the chimney, which could be tightly shut in by means of an iron door. A fire built in this would soon heat the air in the chimney and start a current of air in the flue from the furnace. However, I do not recommend at- tempting to heat the house described by using coal and a hot-air flue. If wood can be readily obtained, it would be adequate to arrange the furnace and flue in the manner outlined, except that the furnace should be built six feet long, twenty inches wide and eighteen inches deep, inside measure- ments, with a grate eighteen inches square at the front end, opening into the ash pit. Even with wood as fuel, it would be well to have the fire door outside the greenhouse and to take the precautions already suggested in order to obtain a draft and to avoid cracks in the furnace and flue.

Time Is Money — Save It You use the telephone because it saves time— you use the Auto-Truck because it enables you to make quicker and better delivery— so why not get down to brass tacks and use Permanite —not only saving time but also unnecessary labor and added expense as well? Any one who has ever used Permanite knows that it can be applied quicker, better and with decidedly better results than any other glazing cement on the market; our new one-hand Permanite Machine is proof of this fact— and any one interested in getting further particulars about this gun can have them by return mail if he will just drop us a line.

Spring bulbous stock is arriving on the market in large quantities and the prices are reasonable compared with the recent high figures. Potted spring plants are also arriving in large quan- tities. The outlook for the Easter trade is excellent. Trailing arbutus has made its appearance for the first time this sea- son. There continue to be large num- bers of funeral orders. Various Notes. Harry I. Stein, who has been conduct- ing the flower department in Hahne's store, in addition to his flower shop in the Public Service Terminal, has with- drawn from the management of Hahne's flower department and is devoting his whole attention to his terminal store. This has been enlarged, allowing for a much larger stock and display of flow- ers, plants, etc. The novel St. Patrick's day window display of A. Begerow's store attracted much attention. Green carnations, shamrocks, long green and yellow can- dles and American and Irish flags helped to make up the display. R. B. M. INDIANAFOUS, IND. The Market. Stock continues in plentiful supply. Sweet peas are abundant in all colors and qualities; good ones, however, are in the majority. Freesias are on the decline; the glut of these is entirely over. Roses are fairly plentiful, but are not abundant and range from $6 per hun- dred up. Carnations are in large sup- ply and can be purchased at $6 to $10 per hundred. Bulbous stock is conspicu- ous. Tulips, jonquils, hyacinths and daffodils are attractive this year. Other offerings include violets, calendulas, etc. Calla lilies are bringing $2.50 to $3 per dozen. Easter lilies are bringing $3 per dozen. Potted plants are available in an as- sorted variety. Bulbous stock predomi- nates. Cinerarias, begonias, a few primroses and azaleas are also in this class. Easter lilies are showing in fair supply, and it is predicted that there will be plenty for Easter. E. E.

Announces the First and Exclusive Offering of MELROSINE ( TRADE MARK) The first real and only effective remedy for the destruction of the rose beetle or chafer Bvprlnted from The Florists' Exchange, February 7, 1920. Is the Rose Bug Doomed? If there exists anywhere around this sec- tion a more cantankerous bnite — one that you cannot possibly have a sympathetic feeling for, as in the old way, you drop him into the can of oil — than the Rose bug, we don't know of It, blm or her. You go over your Roses In the dewy mom or at nearly twlUgbt and gingerly pick or shake him and her off the Roses until you can't see a last one remain- ing— but he and his wives and family (or their close relatives) are back again on the Job next day about as numerous as before, doing their spiteful best to disfigure and de- stroy your Roses. Once we thought we had a remedy. Fifty young chickens one day found their way down to big old Crimson Rambler, Just when the bugs werp nomlng to the surface. What a glorious time those chicks had that day I The second day they were not so keen on the Rose bug food. And the third day they abso- lutely refused to go anywhere near. How- ever, that Summer that particular bush (which was isolated from the Rose beds) was little troubled. This story ii Just en passant. Seriously, any eradlcator of the Rose bug pest will be hailed with Joy by commercial grower, private gardener and amateur, what- ever be the form it may take or the labor It may entail. We follow with a letter from Mr. Wohlert, an old and esteemed subscriber for The Ex- change, and wish only to add our hope that the preparation he mentions will be made known to the commercial man before the Rose bug makes Its next appearance. Editor The Florist*' Exchange: Rose bugs are surely difBcult creature* to get away with and up to the present it has been almost impossible to eliminate them. Therefore, perhaps, you may be pardoned for your comment In your Issue of Jan. 24, upon a remedy for Rose bugs In a manner which cannot but leave the Impression that auch a remedy or this particular remedy, is of but little value In ridding our Roses of this Inju- rious insect. I hold no brief from the orig- inator or Introducer of this remedy, but hav- ing known the originator for many years and having watehed with great interest his en- deavors to perfect his remedy, 1 feel qualified and Justified in suting that his remedy not only Is an efficient one from my viewpoint, but know that it haa been severely tested by many men well known to the trade who would not vouch for Its merits as they have done w«» the remedy not a most excellent one. It seems to me that your comment was not exactly proper, at this time, inasmuch as we should encourage any helpful endeavors to assist horticulture, and I am sure Mr. Barclay, the originator, should, by all means, receive a vote of thanks from all horticulturists for doing something for us which has heretofore not been done, particularly as he did not allow the remedy to be marketed until it had been tested out by such authorities as Theo- dore Wlrth, J. Horace McFarland, RutMU of Entomology of Pennsylvania and others — this relieving buyen purchasing a pig in a bag. I have no financial Interest in this prepara- tion, but know it to be of commercial valne, also I understand a New Torfc seedsman has thought well enough of it to pay a good prio* for it A. B. WOHLERT. Narbeth. Pa. The product of a private gardener, Mr. Hugh Balfour Barclay, of Merion, Pa., to whom horticul- ture owes an everlasting debt for his discovery. Mr. Barclay conducted exactly 872 experiments before he was satisfied that his product was really effective and good enough to be placed on the mar- ket, assuring the public of an article which fulfilled every need demanded of it. In 1919, samples were sent to the most eminent Rosarians and Horticulturists in America for tests, and all have voiced their approval by word and letter. To the skeptical ones, we will gladly mail copies of written testimonials. MELROSINE while destroying the Rose bug does not leave a blemish or spot on the flower, nor has it any odor. MELROSINE when used is diluted with twenty times the amount of water. Full directions for use on each can. MELROSINE is sold as follows: Sample cans, enough to make a gallon of diluted mixture for thor- ough trial on a number of plants, 50c; per pint, $1.00; per quart, $1.75; per 2 quarts, $3.25; per gallon, $6.00; per 5 gallons, $25.00; per 10 gallons, $45.00. A special discount of 10 per cent is allowed to florists and growers and a further discount if put in stock for selUng over the counter.

V-","" ■»?iiH|^p^lJ»"l»H I -Ti-nfr, > n 'I !;i-!viii)v^^ederal Greenhouse Cements are proving so wonderfully efficient because they pos- sess to a superlative degree just those essentials which provide the greatest service to the greenhouse owner. A greenhouse cement, first of all, must be absolutely watertight and airtight; it must work readily with glass and metal or wood, adhering tenaciously under all weather conditions; it must possess enough elasticity to take up all strains, due to windstorms, etc., as well as the normal contraction and expansion of the glass, wood or metal; it must possess resistance against sudden blows, such as hailstones; it must, above all, possess endurance, that quality which makes it last over a period of years without de- terioration. Federal Greenhouse Cements perform these functions, as well as many others, better than any materials you have ever used; if you once try them you will never be satisfied with any other brand. We recommend the black as most effi- cient and, by the way. 90% of the green- house owners use our Federal Greenhouse Cement No. 2. which is the black in a consistency suitable for use in the putty bulb. The reason we recommend the black is because it is possible for us to use it as the primary base to certain pitches and gums, which possess marked elasticity and waterproofing qualities. Combining these gums and pitches, as we do, with suitable oils and reducing agents, and with high- grade asbestos fiber, produces cements which have an inherent strength abso- lutely defying weather and other condi- tions. In making colored and white cements, which are more expensive than the blacks, it is necessary to use as pigments such materials as white lead, zinc, lithopone, barytes and similar materials. These pig- ments in themselves possess no water- proofing or other value except as metal and wood protectives. Cements made from them depend for their efficiency as greenhouse cements solely on the oils and other materials combined with them. Now, the oils which we use, together with as- bestos fiber, which is a part of every one of our cements, enable us to make white and colored cements which are far better than the putties and other materials which you have hitherto used, and a good many of the greenhouse owners vise them and Why? in preference to the black cement. We, however, urge you to use the black. For repairing broken lights, no matter how badly they may be broken, we recom- mend our black paste Federal Elastic Cement. For roofing work and for cover- ing the brick work of boiler settings we also recommend the paste consistency. In fact, the paste consistency is most ad- visable except where a thinner material is required in order to do work quickly and effectively. Federal Greenhouse Cements are sold at very reasonable prices. Their great success has brought numerous imitations on the market. Now is the time to start using Federal Greenhouse Cements. Glass is high and every other essential has risen to a de- gree makino; economies and conservation not only desirable but necessary. The use of Federal Greenhouse Cements will prove a step in the right direction and in a short time you will express your approval, as so many hundreds of others have done.

PROVIDENCE, B. I. The Market. Several pleasant days last week raised the hopes of the public that spring had at last arrived, but, instead of spring, came more snow. But while the pleasant days lasted the florists took advantage of conditions, and daffo- dils, tulips, sweet peas and violets and also bunches of pussy willows gave a cheering appearance to the downtown windows. Among the notable displays were those of Macnair, T. J. Johnston & Co., Johnston Bros., W. A. Bowers and Timothy O'Connor. Prices for the week have been about normal, with an ample supply of all staples and the appearance of a few novelties. Funeral work is active and the trade is making final preparations for the Easter rush. Various Notes. Timothy O'Connor has returned from a short stay in Florida. John Lindblom has leased the green- houses of Johnston Bros., on Hope street, and has taken possession. J. J. Karins, representing Henry A. Dreer, Inc. of Philadelphia, was in the city last week. William Doel, of Pascoag, B. I., was in the city Friday, March 19, looking for Easter supplies. Eugene MoCarron is contemplating numerous changes in his houses this spring. Edward Brooke, of T. J. Johnston & Co., made a trip through New England last week looking for Easter stock. Benjamin Resnick has resigned his position with Johnston Bros, to take one in the cut flower department of S. S.

Many fine lawns have been badly neglect- ed because it has been next to impossible to get the necessary help. TTiie year you can give your lawn the at- tention it requires and have the work done better and at less cost than was ever pos- sible with hand mowers. The Ideal Power Lawn Mower will solve your grass cutting problems just the same as it has for hundreds of others. Advantages of the Ideal The Ideal is a power mower and roller in one and the sod is rolled every time the grass is cut. This keeps it smooth, firm and free from bumps. The Ideal is scientifically designed to keep lawns in fine condition. The weight is just right for steady year around work. The Mower has a thirty-inch cut and one man can easily mow four or five acres of grass per day at an operating ex- pense of about fifty cents for fuel and oil. Cuts Close to Walks, Trees and Shrubbery Machine turns easily and will cut close up to walks, tioes, flower beds and shrubbery. When running over walks, driveways, pavements, etc., the operator simply lifts the cutting mower from the ground by means of a conveniently placed lever. This feature is also important in the early spring when it is desired to use the ma- chine for rolling only. Simply lift up the cutting mower, add more weight if re- quired and you have the most convenient power roller imaginable. The success of the Ideal is due to its sturdy and powerful, yet simple, construc- tion. No clutches or complicated parts to wear and get out of order. The Mo- tor is built in our own shop and de- signed especially for the work. Owners of large estates, public parks, golf clubs, country clubs, cemeteries, etc., are all using the Ideal Tractor Lawn Mower with great success. Special Cutting Mower for Putting Greens For work on golf courses we furnish, at slight additional cost, a special set of cut- ting blades for use on the putting greens. In less than five minutes the regular 30" blade can be substituted for cutting the fairway. When desired, we also furnish, as an extra, a riding trailer which fastens to the frame and permits the operator to ride and at the same time have the same easy control as when walking. You can secure the Ideal through your dealer direct or from our factory. Write today for catalogue and further details. IDEAL POWER LAWN MOWER COMPANY R. E.

St. Patrick's day always brings a host of parties, but the good old saint never sponsored anything more enjoyable ^than the dinner dance given the Tri'-City Florists' Club at the Davenport Outing Club house Thursday, March 11. The saint this time was none other than Victor De Lascaille, of Davenport, la., a recent member of the club, but al- ready a real comrade and co-worker. Members and ladies, numbering about seventy-five, after a brief business meet- ing, partook of a bounteous dinner, made even more enjoyable by its beauti- ful environments. The numerous tables were adorned so artistically with flow- ers, ferns and accessories in keeping with the season, that even the keen eyes of the florists themselves marveled at the effect. Especially uniqufe were place markers of wee pots of growing sham- rock. Judge N. A. Larson, of Moline, 111., was the chief speaker of the evening, but when the strains of the orchestra became irresistible all formality was put aside, all forgot care and age and either danced or watched others do so. Here daffodils, hyacinths and Laddie carnations, a courtesy to the host, lent their grace and fragrance. An impromptu program of aesthetic dancing and vocal numbers added to the entertainment. After a seemingly short evening, but really at a late hour, the guests took leave, declaring Mr. De Lascaille a most royal and hospitable host. The April meeting will be held with Henry Gaethje, of Bock Island, 111. Ofiicers for the ensuing year were unanimously elected as follows: Presi- dent, Charles Reardon; vice-presidents, John Staack, of Moline, 111.; Joseph Tuckis, of Rock Island, 111., and Victor De Lascaille, of Davenport, la.; secre- tary, William Knees, Jr.; financial sec- retary, L.

I* Crops that don't get checked when they're growing, do get the checks when they're cut The Earlier You Get It Working The Sooner It Pays for Itself Just because Skinner System Irrigation is ab- solute protection against loss from drought, don't make the mistake of thinking that it will make money for you only dur- ing very dry weather. Skinner System Irriga- tion, the most perfect watering system, will often pay for itself on early crops, before the usual midsummer droughts. It gives them a quicker, stronger start. Keeps them growing fa^, and gets them on the market early, so they catch the highest prices. And it increases, often doubles, the number of first size, perfect blooms. Send for our new book; tells all about Skinner System watering; and the profits it produces for its users.

Plower shows similar to those given at the Grand Central Palace, New York, may become popular in Africa before long, according to a statement of the Interchurch World Movement. Ameri- can horticulturists have introduced a number of American plants into the country and are finding that gladioli, oxalis, geraniums, phloxes and other flowers give a larger yield and bloom for a longer period there than in the United States. The rich fertility of the soil and the warmth of the climate enable many of them to grow wild once they are transplanted. Natives of the country have never taken an interest in cultivating flowers, but since the introduction of the flower show they are eager to act as gardeners on ihe flower farms which are being es- tablished by Americans and Europeans. It has always been the custom for the country folk to come into the towns and cities laden with wild flowers, which they auction off to the highest bidder. In Cape Town, flower day oc- curs several times a week, and it is always possible to secure large bunches of flowers for a small sum. Many of the baskets contain flowers similar to those which are cultivated in America. The ravines in South Africa are full of calla lilies, and geraniums grow lux- uriantly. Although the flowers brought to market are plentiful, they wilt quickly and soon wither away. It is reported that the flower show with its varied exhibits is serving as an impetus for natives to care more for the flowers and use greater effort to pre- serve them. They have always con- sidered that as more could be gathered so easily, it was not worth while to give special care to those brought to town. The western methods of tending plants are bringing such beautiful results, however, that natives are eagerly learn- ing all that they can about horticul- ture. LILIES AND HYDRANGEAS. "What is the best food for Easter lilies and hydrangeas and how often should it be given? A. F. C. — 0. You can feed Easter lilies and hy- drangeas every four or five days, pro- vided the pots are well filled with active roots. Liquid cow or sheep manure is excellent. Such highly con- centrated fertilizers as Clay's are splen- did and safe to use. Discontinue feed- ing when the flowers start to open. If continued after hydrangeas show color, it will make them soft and the color will fade out badly. Avoid heavy feed- ing. Better give moderate doses each fourth or fifth day rather than a more powerful one at wide intervals. C. W. SOLUTION TOO STRONG. I am sending a few chrysanthemum cuttings, unrooted. Can you tell me the cause of the edges of the leaves turning white and what the outcome inav be? W. A. M.— Pa. The trouble is caused either by spray- ing with too strong a solution of nico- tine extract or by heavy fumigating with the same material. There is no great damage done, because, as the roots grow, they will gradually grow away from the leaves now affected, but in the future reduce the strength of your spraying solution or do not fumi- gate so heavily, especially while the growths are young and soft. M. P. SERMONS IN FLOWERS. Florist Brings Them Out. Combining the artist spirit in voca- tion and avocation, W. J. Olds, of Union City, Pa., gives it expression by his flowers and by his pen. He follows in the footsteps of celebrated poets when he takes flowers for the subject of his verse, and his "Sermonettes from the Flowers," contributed to a local paper, are perhaps more logically derived than the classical "sermons in stones." Mr. Olds put his position in these words: "Has it not occurred to you that the first requisite of the successful artist in flowers is that he should have the soul of a poet, that he must have the gift to idealize and the power to give expres- sion to his ideals with whatever tools he works? If the idealist be given a pencil to work with, he becomes a poet; if a brush, he becomes an artist. But if his tools be flowers, he becomes a Designer (with a big D), and his every arrangement is, or should be, a poem in flowers. "We take as much delight in work- ing out our ideals in flowers as in trying to give them expression with a pencil. But we find that the mute appeal of the flowers may ofttimes be enhanced and given voice by the cooperative aid of the pencil. "That the public may be awakened to a livelier appreciation of flowers and their mission to the world, I am endeav- oring to give them an interpretive pencil. "I am furnishing a series of sermon- ettes to our local paper, the idea being to awaken a higher appreciation of flowers in a community where the popu- lar estimate of them is not merely a luxury, but that they are rather a use- less extravagance." A Sermonette. Chapter 5 in the series of Mr. Olds' sermonettes, consisting of a prose mes- sage and a poetic reinforcement, is "The Joy Message of the Sweet Peas." It reads as follows: How pleasant must have been God's thoughts toward us when He created the sweet peas, when He gave to them such a wide range and loveli- ness of color, such grace of form and such sur- passing fragrance! How Joyously the angels must have fluttered their wings when they be- held these lovely angel-winged blossoms up- springing from the earth! How eagerly they must have watched and waited to see whether our ears should catch the music and the mes- sage which the sweet peas were bringing to us I Poised like the skylark, with wings all aqulver. Filling tlie air with tlie lilt of liis song. Sweet fairy faces, like angels, forever Winging and swinging the zepliyrs among; Thus the sweet peas, all their dainty wings waving. Give to each zephyr tlie wealtli of their hoard. Pouring unstinted, not gnidginir nor saving, leading eacli breeze witli their fragrance out- poured. Bonny sweet pea! With thy fragrance and beauty. Filling our souls with tliy joy and delight. May we not glean from tliee visions of duty? Shall not we, too, lift our hearts to the light? Shall not we. too, from tlie bounty which heaven Hath to our spirits so freely bestowed. Freely pour out wliat our Father hatli given. Spreading His grace and His goodness abroad? Joyously, W. J. Olds, 1920. How Mr. Olds used such poems as these as an aid in the florists' business was told in The Review for March 11. The daffodil poem quoted there is also used in chapter 2 of his sermonettes. Others have for topic lilies, tulips, hya- cinths and primroses. McKees Rocks, Pa. — John P. Downey is erecting a greenhouse.

Meeting the elder Mr. Harvey, was not the least of the day's pleasure. Recall how we stood in front of the old house and looking across the field, Mr. Harvey said: "Here was where the old Revolutionary battle of the Brandywine was fought. At that spot right over there was where the fiercest fighting was done. Some summer evenings, when the day's work is over, I come out here and look across this field and kind of let my imagination have its own way in seeing that battle all over again. And then I think of Washington, who against such tremendous odds broke the chains of the country's enslavement; giving to us all a lib- erty, like which the world had never known. Somehow, thinking of Washington like that, always renews my vows of sincerity towards life. It makes me renew my determination that in doing whatever we do, we will build strong. Build our greenhouses and our characters equally strong." Having read these inspiring words of Mr. Har- vey, you know why that day stands out so par- ticularly strong in my mind. You can also understand why I was more than usually pleased when one of our salesmen phoned that "The Harveys" had just ordered two Hitchings Houses.
