More and more they replace the -Early Tulips. Their clear and brilliant colors and tall stems make them much more useful. Outsi^de, they can be left undisturbed for several seasons. When forced they re- quire little heat and the forced bulbs can be used for outside planting the next season. While it would be more profitable for us to sell a complete line of Dutch Bulbs, still in order to offer our customers something worth while, we carry a full line of Darwin Tulips at very attractive prices. Darwin Tulips are scarce and in good demand. Quality is excellent, varieties are the best, and our customers should make a liberal planting. Orders filled same day as received.

Show Diminished Interest. The two New York flower shows of last week, that of the American Insti- tute, November 3 to 5, held in the En- gineering Societies' building, and that of the Horticultural Society of New York, held in the American Museum of Natural History, showed how present conditions are militating against inter- esting exhibitions of horticultural prod- ucts. Outside of the big international flower show, now, happily, an annual event in New York, there is a waning of interest in local shows in that locality. This is not due to a cessation of interest in such shows on the part of the public, but rather to difficulties in the produc- tion of exhibits of the kind that go to the making up of a show. Dependence has always been placed upon the private growers for exhibits to conform with the schedules issued for these shows, but it must be realized that where formerly there were twenty prospective exhibit- prs, there now is, perhaps, only one. So many private greenhouses have been closed altogether, or devoted to actual household requirements, that exhibition stock has been neglected, and unless something unforeseen happens, or some of the former enthusiasts seek to re- deem the situation, it may be some time before local shows will take on some- thing of the glories of the past. Old Features Lacking. Labor conditions, and increased ex- pense in the way of buildings and sup- plies, turn even millionaires from a hor- ticultural hobby, and the revulsion is re- flected in the shows of last week. Staged in practically the same quarters as for- merly, the exhibits were conspicuous through their paucity. The managers of the shows did their best to conceal the shortage in exhibits, but, at best, their ingenuity was scant. The show of the Horticultural Society of New York occupied only the western aisle of the big museum, with the orchid section, as usual, in the northern aisle, and a lot of trained plants of chrysanthemums, diminutive even as the whole exhibition, in the foyer, where once, in pre-war days, were seen the magnificent produc- tions of Adolph Lewisohn and others, in spread as much as sixteen feet in diameter. The same condition was in evidence at the American Institute's show. But in spite of the narrowing down of the scope of these shows, the exhibitions were excellent. At the American Institute. At the American Institute the ex- hibits generally were good. The chrys- anthemum displays were light, and, out- side of the small varieties, there did not ai)pear to be anything new. The warm weather prior to the show prevented the staging of many flowers in course of preparation for the exhibition. One ex- hibitor expressed it: "The best of my flowers melted away." W. Milne, gardener for the H. B. Plant estate, Groton, Conn., carried off the medal for the finest flowers in the show, staging some remarkable stock, when conditions were considered. Geo. E. Ferguson, gardener for Mrs. Harry Payne Whitney, Manhasset, N. Y., also helped materially in the make-up of the show. Max Schling staged two magnificent Egyptian vases of chrysanthemums sup- ported by autumn foliage and berried branches, with an accentuated note produced by Physalis Franchetii, which proved to be a great attraction to the visitors. The commercial exhibits were few; in fact, the C. H. Totty Co., Madison, N. J., filled out in the commercial section. Its group of chrysanthemums and roses on the platform in the main hall was superb, and was awarded a special prize. The company also won the firsts in fifteen classes of chrysanthemums and four classes of roses. The judges were Peter Duff, Eugene Dailledouze, John McNichol and Wil- NOTICE To those who want things printed in Because the Thanksgiving holiday falls on Thursday, the day the paper usually is mailed, it will be neces- sary to go to press ONE DAY EARLY with the issue of November 25.

Horticultural Society's Show The chrysanthemum show held by the Horticultural Society of New York at the Museum of Natural History Novem- ber 4 to 7 depended chiefly for it^ sup- port this year on the gardeners of the private estates in this vicinity, though a few commercial growers made exhibits. In the chrysanthemum classes the Charles H. Totty Co., Madison, N. J., was the only commCTcial grower who appeared in the list of awards. To this firm went first prize for twenty blooms with stems of not less than three feet; for collection of twenty named varie- ties, stems not over fifteen inches; for collection of twenty varieties of pom- pons and of a similar number of singles. Kose Classes. A larger variety of prize-winners ap- peared in the rose classes. The F. E. Pierson Co., Tarrytown, N. Y., won first prizes in the classes for fifty red and fifty dark pink. L. B. Coddington, of Murray Hill, N. J., was second on fifty dark pink and first on fifty flesh or light pink, second in that class going to the Chas. H. Totty Co. Silver medals were awarded to the Charles H. Totty Co. for the new rose. Golden Ophelia, and to the F. E. Pierson Co. for its pink sport of Francis Scott Key. In the foliage plant section the F. E. Pierson Co. won two firsts and one second. In the orchid classes Lager & Hurrell, Summit, N. J., staged the prize-winning collection of not less than twenty-five species and varieties and won the award for the new meritorious variety not in commerce. The Joseph Manda Co., West Orange, N. J., won first on three plants of three varieties and on a col- lection of not less than twenty-five vases. This firm was awarded a special prize on its display of Cypripedium in- signe Sanderse. Special Awards. Special awards were given as follows: Herman Mamitsch, Eockville Center, N. Y., on basket of sweet peas, sport of Eose Queen; Mills & Co., Mamaroneck, N. Y., on display of dahlias; A. N. Pierson, Inc., Cromwell, Conn., on pom- pon chrysanthemums Nos. 498, 456, 461, 466 and 458; F. E. Pierson Co., on dis- play of ferns; Julius Eoehrs Co., Euth- erford, N. J., on collection of orchids; Chas. H. Totty Co., on five vases roses. The private gardeners, who staged the greater part of the show, included the following among the prize-winners: Joseph A. Winsock, gardener for Mrs. Wm. D. Guthrie, Locust Valley, N. J.; James McManus, for Miss A. De Lamar, Glen Cove, N. Y.; Andrew Strachan, for Wm. B. Thompson, Yonkers, N. Y.; James Stuart, for Mrs. F. A. Constable, Mamaroneck, N. Y.; George Ferguson, for Mrs. Payne Whitney, Manhasset, N. Y.; A. MacDonald, for D. E. Oppen- heimer, Yonkers, N. Y.; W. E. Fowkes, for Howard Cole, Madi- son, N. J.; James T. Sisley, for Mrs. Paul Moore, Convent, N. J.; A. V. Carver, for Miss M. Valentine, New Canaan, Conn.; David Gustafson, for H. F. Kean, Elberon, N. J.; William Beid, for S. M. and A. Colgate, Orange, N. J., and Anthon Pedersen, for Charles Stew- art Smith, Stamford, Conn. Anthony J. Manda, Hollis, N. Y., was manager of the show. TARRYTOWN, N. Y. Autumn Show. The annual fall exhibition of the Tar- rytown Horticultural Society was held at Music hall, November 3 to 5. The exhibition again proved a success. Ow- ing to the unfavorable weather condi- tions, the exhibits of chrysanthemums were not quite so extensive as in former years, but they were of fine quality. The fruit and vegetable exhibits were far ahead of previous exhibits.

MAKING SPACE COUNT. Many (biwer stores cn\-er a Larger floor .area than tli;it of Penn the Florist, in Host on, but few do so large a busi- ness. One is inclined to wonder, ujion entering it, if this is the i>lace where this firm's tremendous business is done. For the year's tot.nl is one that would stagger many florists. The reason that so nuudi can be done, and is done, in this space is learned njuin ins].ection. Arrangement and system tell the tale. How simjde are the travels of an or- der is instructive. Order tickets are iu duplicate. Both go to the cashii'r's window. One goes upstairs to the bookkeeping office as tlie cashier's rec- ord. Tlie otlier goes to the sliijijiing desk, whicli is but a few feet from the cashier's cage. If the order is to go out immedi.ately, the clerk who recei%es the order gets the necessary stock and lays if, with the order, on an ad.joining table to be made u]i. When this is done, the tlowers are boxeil aud addressed and iaiil on the next table. The order ticket is still attached. ^Vhell the delivery boy takes the box, the ti(diet is detacdietl and ]iut ;iside. During the day these tickets are taken to the bookkee;)ing de- li.artmeut: they indicate that the order lias lieeii filled and sent. In the book- keeping department, the two eojiies of each order are matcheil ;ind pinned to- gether, thus forming a comidete record of the day's transactions. Since they .are being ccdlected and paired during the day, a complete record of each day's business is available early the following morning, if not the s.ame night. Beginning November 1, Penn the Flo- rist installed a Njition.al cash register of the tyjie that classifies each (,rder or jiarts of an order, so that at the end of the month the firm will know how much business .was funeral work, how much corsage oi-ilers, etc. Of c(uirse, holiday business cannot all be handled in this store.

Nobody suggests that flower stores imitate drug stores, which nowadays chase the elusive nickels so assiduously that the jimeracks on display almost, if they do not totally, obscure the original apothecarial purpose of such places. It is foolish to put in so many side lines that the main line is submerged. But there is little danger of that with flower stores; most of them still neglect their legitimate opportunities. Take, for instance, plant foods and insecticides. How many florists carry them? They would not be out of place in any store which sells plants; inileed, nearly every florist who sells ydants has numerous requests for "something to make them grow." Not to have buch things at hand, even in sight, is a neglect dejilorable in more ways than one. In the first jilace, every florist should try to supjily as many as possible of the needs of his customers, lie sup- filies the ]iot cover; then why not the i)it of plant food? In the second place, in addition to satisfying the customer's desire, each such sale adds a quarter or a dime to the florist's profits and does it without adding in any way to his overhead expenses. AVithin recent times some of the large retailers have come to ajipreciate that a really desirable sum is to be added to the annual profits in this perfectly legit- imate way. Trying if out, numbers of them have found it j>aid to have several kinds on display and to advertise them by means of tlie show cards, booklets anil envelojie stuffers suiiplied l)y the manufacturers. "Now we ne\er fail to mention ])l;uit food when selling ]>otte(l plants," s.'iys a jirominent St. Louis retailer. There are many good plant foods, each having its jiarticular advan- tages.

All roads lead to Memphis next week for Tennessee florists, where the seventh annual convention of tlie Tennessee State Florists' Association will be held, November 17 and 18. The arrangements have been practically completed and the program should make the convention one of the best in the history of the association. This is the first time the Memphis florists have entertained the convention and they are anxious to make it a success. Nothing is being left undone that might add to the comfort and entertainment of the visiting florists. The meetings will be held in the Board of Commerce building. One of the important features of the conven- tion will be the commercial displays. Display space is being furnished free of charge by the Memphis florists. Program of Addresses. W. Cleveland JolKjson, chairman of the arrangement cdiiifrrittce, Memphis, will call the iTiceting to order and, after the invocation, W. 11. Englehart will introduce the mayor of ^Memphis. The mayor's address of woleome will he fol- lowed by the annual address of President A. J. McNutt, of Kuox\'il!p, Tenn., and by tlic report of the secretary-treasurer, Professor U. M. Bentley, of Knoxville. The program of subsequent addresses is as follows: NOVEMIiKH 17. 10:00 A. M. "Birthday KIowits." liy Viiicpiit .1. (iorly. of Griiiini & (iiirlv. ."oiicli, K. A.

Members of the trade have worked to- gether splendidly. They have thrown open their doors to welcome the public to their indi\i(lual llower shows. Ban- ners ap]H'ared on delivery and jirivate c.-irs. Posters are dis]ilayed in nearly all iiie windows. Thousands of folders, sup- ]ilied by the ilii-ecturs, have been used judiciously by the retailers. The Chira^'o daily ji.apers featured the "Say It with I'luwcrs" week in their news columns. While this jmblicity is of a general nature, the trade cannot but benefit by it. Feature stories sug- gesting the wearing of a flower on Armistice day must influence the public to some extent. Secretary Swenson, of the Allied Florists' Association, esti- mated that if tlie free publicity that has been obtained were to be paid for at regular advertising rates, it would cost the association over $5,000. The directors of the Allied Florists' Association were in control of all ar- rangements for the week and they, together with Secretary II. V. Swenson and President George Asmus, deserve great credit for the success of the cam- paign. Besides President George Asnius, the board consists of William J. Smyth, August Lange, John Michelsen, Paul Klingsj)orn, Fric Johnson, August F. Pochlmann, Otto Amling and Peter Pearson. Mews from roQi PARISIAN FLOWER STORES. Change from German. Before leaving Germany for France I visited P>furt and saw the famous green- houses and gardens of J. C. Schmidt. The grounds, I was told, still h.ave their pre- war beauty, but the greenhouses for the most part will soon be shut down on ac- count of the lack of coal. A new road- way or drive is being built, along which the horticultural work will be equal to anything in Kiirojie. The landscape work in general surrounding the houses and olliees surpasses any tiling we have in America of a commerlace during the first week in November. Some of them, of course, have been using space in local payiers during the summer as occasion offered. Now, however, they are in- creasing their activity and unlimbering hea\y artillery for action, f^lsewhere in this issue is described Chicago's pub- licity in connection with "Say It with Flowers" week in that city. In St. Louis the first gun of the fall campaign went off in the Globe-Demo- crat last week. It advertised "The Radiant Flower of Autumn, Chrysanthe- mums." Alongside an illustration of a chrys.anthemum bloom ran the follow- ing: It is rhrvs.intheiniini Tinic! These iiiaiestic Mooin.s. so lirilliant of aspect, await v..ar ad- miration at every florist's.

The Eeview brings results. Cold weather has put snap in the flower markets as well as the atmosphere. Commercial failures last week were almost twice the number in the same week of 1919. John Cook, rosarian, wUl celebrate his seventy-seventh birthday anniversary at his home in Baltimore, November 16. About the only thing on which mem- bers of both political parties agree is the abolition of the excess profits tax, and florists are with 'em. In order that The Eeview may reach its readers at the usual time, the forms of the issue of November 25, Thanksgiv- ing day, will close one day earlier than usual. Contributors and advertisers should send their material to reach this office not later than November 20. It is two years since florists as a class stopped pushing for business. For the greater part of the time since the armis- tice there has been more demand than stock. If this is not to be the case in future the trade soon will adjust itself to the new condition and each will pros- per according to the effort made. A STRICTER code of commercial moral- ity will be forced on florists, among others, by the new set of business condi- tions being brought about by deflation. The days when there were more buyers than sellers are gone. The man who does not give value or who fails to ad- just legitimate complaints will lose busi- ness so rapidly- he soon will be eliminated from the competition. Retail prices in the florists' trade, it has been said, are not quickly influenced by changes in wholesale markets, but it is being demonstrated that the retiEiil prices of other commodities are still slower to follow down when wholesale prices break. Nearly all the necessities of life have fallen from twenty-five to fifty per cent in replacement cost in the last six months, but consumers have scarcely begun to feel the change in the cost of living. Retail florists, on the other hand, having stock only for the day, are selling on the basis of the present market level. And it transpires that the florists' business is not exceptional, as many of us thought, in the difference between what the con- sumer pays and what the producer gets. Wholesale prices in mercantile lines during November were the lowest in eighteen months, according to Dun's re- view of business. An illustrated 32-page booklet from the flower shop Corona, 175 Kalverstraat, Amsterdam, Holland, shows specimens of its basket and design work. The mana- gers are ifoh. H. and J. J. Groenewegen. The Horticultural Trade-Journal, a leading British publication, reprinted on the first page of its October 20 issue the article of Charles H. Totty, in The Review of September 9, on " Travels among British Trade." For advertising purposes only, Penn the Florist orders from California each autumn seventy-five dozen large chrysan- themums, which are exhibited in the store in Boston after they have made the trans- continental journey. The notice such an exhibit receives is worth much expensive newspaper space. Don't cut wages. It is probable that the reversal of the farm-to-lactory move- ment, which has begun, will steadily in- crease the volume of labor open for em- ployment in greenhouses, but it will be a mistake to reduce the pay. The future of the business is best assured by keeping wages up to a point which will make the work attractive to intelligent young men. COAL PRICES DBOPPINa. The coal situation at present is more favorable for those growers who have not yet secured their full winter's sup- ply than it has been at any time this summer or autumn. It is regarded as more than likely that the demand for bituminous coal will show a marked de- crease in the near future and those who are in touch with the situation believe this is one of the principal reasons for the drooping market at present. Deal- ers have begun to realize that with heavy production and a freer car sup- ply there is really nothing to keep prices up and it is expected that within a few weeks quotations will have reached normal levels on practically all grades of fuel. In the meantime most of the coal speculators and fly-by-night concerns have been driven from the field. Re- sponsible coal men appear to be highly pleased over this change in the situa- tion, for it was felt all along that these speculators had a greater share in the manipulation of prices than any other factor. They simply took advantage of a temporary situation to spread erro- neous reports regarding an alleged im- pending shortage and managed in scores of instances to take orders at prices that were not warranted by actual conditions in the market. Production of soft coal is certainly being maintained along the most en- couraging lines. For the fourth week in succession the 12,000,000 mark has been exceeded. This is due in a large measure to the attitude of labor, which is returning to the mines in large num- bers from other industries where wages had proved far more attractive. The miners seem to be satisfied, generally speaking, and operators are in hopes that no disturbances will arise in the future. With labor on the job, thus insuring large and efficient production, greenhouse men need have no worries about a possible shortage of coal. Price declines last week were marked. The action of the Cleveland operators to lower prices had a telling effect on the market. The slowing up of manu- facturing operations has also caused a slackening in demand for bituminous coal. Despite the fact that export and bunker demands are still heavy, prices in this division, where they have been highest, seem to be approaching normal levels, giving growers hope of an early supply for their needs at reasonable prices. BUSINESS IS BBISE. The trade in the middle west reports plant business brisk, like this: Kindly discontinue our ad of holly ferns; all sold by the first Insertion. — J. S. Wilson Floral Co., Des Moines, la., November 7, 1920. We are sold out for the present and have to return money by every mail. We never want for buyers when we advertise In The Review. — Klrkwood Floral Co., Des Moines, la., November e, 1920. We have sold out on plumosus for the present, thanks to The Review. — Charles T. May, Dayton, C, November 6, 1920. If you hear a man complain of tha, cost of advertising you can be pretty certain he spends a good bit of money elsewhere than in The Review. BRIEF ANSWEB& C. B., Minn. — Clematis coccinea is the name usually given in the trade, al- though the correct botanical name is C. texensis. It is probably a variety of C. Viorna and Asa Gray considered it such. C. M., Ind. — Clematis coccinea, botani- cally known as C. texensis, is somewhat variable in leaf, which is sometimes almost round and in other cases oval. E. C. M., N. J. — There are white, rose and purple forms of Gladiolus Kunderdi Glory and probably Mr. Kunderd has additional shades. A SIX-CYUNDEB PABABLE. There's some food for thought for florists as well as other kinds of people in "A Six-Cylinder Parable" by the business manager of the New York Evening Post: "There pnce was an Automobile Driver whd used all Six Cylinders go- ing Down Grade, but when he came to a Hill he took the wires off two Spark Plugs and tried to negotiate the hill on Four Cylinders. You will agree that he was a Pretty Foolish Driver. "Yet a Lot of advertisers are Jast Like Him. Last fall and winter, when they couldn't supply their Customers' Demands (the Going was Good), they advertised on a very Large Scale (used Six Cylinders). Now that they have Struck the Upgrade, quite a Few of them are Deliberately getting out and taking the Wires off two of their Spark Plugs. Just like the Grocer who Pulled Down the Curtains in his store because his groceries Weren't Selling. "Other advertisers Took an Oppo- site View. They ran on Six Cylinders in good times; now they are running on Six and Giving her a lot of Extra Gas. When others are Dropping Out they are going Strong. "A lot of Pessimists say we are in for a business depression This Winter. Those who Discharge their Best Sales- men doubtless will find business slow. But think — how much Better it would be for Everyone to keep On His Toes and when business shows Signs of Slow- ing Down, step on the Gas, keep Hit- ting on All Six — and take the Hill on High!" NOTBMBBB 11, 1920 The Florists' Review 31 William Plumb. William Plumb, president of the New York Florists' Club for two terms, 1898 and 1899, died at the Hotel Breslin, New York, on the evening of November 6, of heart failure superinduced by an attack of pleurisy. During the last few years he had been engaged in landscape work in Cuba, making his headquarters at Havana. In the early days of the New York Florists' Club's history he was one of its stanch supporters, and figured in the flower shows of those times as a capable manager, particularly in the shows held at Madison Square Garden, then and now one of New York 's great- est exhibition halls. He was well quali- fied as a gardener and horticulturist for his undertakings, which included the development of both private estates and commercial establishments. When preparations were in progress for the big Panama-Pacific exposition, at San Francisco, he was appointed superin- tendent of the department of horticul- ture. Mr. Plumb was possessed of a most charming personality, which endeared him to a host of friends. He arrived in New York from Havana Tuesday, November 2. He had not been feeling well, and remained in seclusion until November 6, when he felt somewhat better and entertained his nephew, Charles Plumb, to whom he explained his unannounced visit as due to the fact that financial conditions in Cuba made it possible for him to come north to renew acquaintance with his friends. When he retired to his room, his illness asserted itself to such an extent that he died be- fore medical aid could reach him. He was born seventy years ago, in Hunting- don, Hants county, England, the birth- place of Oliver Cromwell. The deceased was a member of the S. A. F., F. & A. M., Knights Templar, Shriners, Odd Fellows and Elks. He leaves a widow and one daughter, Mildred, both residents of Boston. The body was taken to Boston Monday, November 8, where interment was made. J. H. P. Oeorge Williams. George Williams, a veteran florist of Indianapolis, Ind., died Saturday even- ing, November 6. Several years ago he organized the firm of George Williams & Son, but recently he relinquished active participation in the business. His son, Earle, now manages the busi- ness. August F. Hoffmeister. August F. Hoffmeister died at the home of his sister, Mrs. William San- ders, at Westwood, Cincinnati, O., Wednesday, November 3, after a linger- ing illness. He was 55 years of age. Mr. Hoflfmeister and his two sisters organized the Hoffmeister Floral Co. twenty-five years ago. Later they spe- cialized in the growing of Easter lilies and were one of the largest concerns of that nature west of New York. Mr. Hoffmeister was known as the "Ohio lily king." During the last year he had been residing on his farm near Amelia, O. He was a member of the William Plumb. Cincinnati Florists' Club, the Society of American Florists and the American Forestry Association. Besides Mrs. Sanders, three sisters, Mrs. Emma Wendland and the Misses Margaret and Caroline Hoffmeister, and the deceased's mother survive him. The funeral services were held at Spring Grove cemetery, G. H. K. George Manton, for many years a grower in Toronto, died November 5. Mr. and Mrs. J. A. Neal have moved to the city for the winter, after spend- ing the summer at their farm. J. J. H. TORONTO, ONT. The big event of the week was the flower show conducted by Toronto retail florists. This annual mum show is held In the individual flower shops. There were some beautiful window displays. The usual immense exhibition mums were missing, but there were thousands of other kinds, including beautiful Turners, for which there was a good sale. The show had the effect of making all flo- rists make use of their windows and make special decorations. Some of these windows were arranged with baskets of mums and others contained banks of mums, these banks extending into the stores in some cases. The demand for wedding decorations has fallen off considerably during the last week, but there are many requests for decorations for teas, which appear to be the order of the day. These deco- rations consist chiefly of palms, ferns and mums. The cut flower trade is good and the demand for design work continues. A. W. Doughty has reentered the flo- rists' trade after an absence of a year. His new store is on Danforth avenue. J. P. McCarthy, of the M. Rice Co., Philadelphia, was in town last week. CHICAGO. The Market. Last week 's election excitement had no sooner subsided than the market ex- perienced a nice little boom. The reason seemed to be that nearly all the retailers who draw stock from Chicago's whole- sale district had carried as little as pos- sible over the days of the landslide and its aftermath; as soon as the distraction passed the stores all stocked up again and made of the end of the week a veri- table little holiday. As the supply of flowers was not large, prices were im- proved and practically everything was cleaned up Saturday night. Business not only is good, but it is running up sales totals ahead of the record for the same time last year. In October this result was attained on quantity sold.at low prices, but now it is the result of small supply sold at better prices than prevailed last year. In no line is the supply large. Dur- ing the chrysanthemum season none of the growers cares to bring in a heavy crop of anytliing else and this year there are not many mums. Last year's oversupply and low prices had the usual result; for this market not nearly so many mums or pompons were planted as in 1919.

Bon- naflfon is the most abundant variety and flowers which were well sold last year at 10 to 12 cents arc bringing 15 to '20 cents; it takes 25 to 30 cents to get really good stock. White is in almost as strong request, but the supply of pink is lacking. Pompons also are sell- ing better than in recent years. It may be noted in passing that the smaller quantity and better prices are condu- cive to more careful handling. There will not be many mums for Thanksgiv- ing. There is nothing new to be said of roses or the demand for them. The supply is not large and the call cleans them up pretty steadily at prices which it seems should be profitable.

At the same time the majority of growers are of the opinion that it pays better in the long run to produce medium stems rather than special long.

There are those who say prices recently have averaged as good as last year at the same date, while the supply has been much larger. Sweet peas also are more plentiful and of better quality; they sell well, much better than violets. Paper Whites have arrived, the first sell- ing for as much as 10 cents! Mignon- ette, too, has returned for the season. Callas sell rather slowly, as do lilies, but the supply of neither is large. Valley equals the demand. More good calen- dulas could be sold. Small quantities of gardenias and swainsona move welL There are enough cattleyas at the price. Greens are selling steadily, but not rapidly; there seems at the moment no special demand for anything in this line, of which there is an adequate supply except of bronze galax. Hastening the Crops. All cut flower crops under glass were earlier than usual this season. It was peculiarly noticeable in chrysanthe- mums. The midseason varieties came in on the heels of the earlies and the late sorts now are in crop at least a PERCY JONES Wholesale Cot Flowers and Florists' Supplies 30 East Randolph Street CHICAGO, ILL. 100% Service week, and probably ten days, earlier than usual. The reason for it can be seen in the weather man's record for October. The mean temperature was 62 degrees, or almost 9 degrees higher than normal. Of the possible duration of sunshine there was sixty-nine per cent, or nine per cent more than normal for the month. On the other hand, rain- fall was only one-fourth the amount which fell last October. There were nineteen clear days, where a normal October gives only eleven. The first killing frost this year was October 21, twelve days later than the average date. Flowers a Near-Necessity.

PbMM RuMpb 6578 CHICAGO been more active than many other lines, including numbers of those classed as essential. Everybody knows of the practical paralysis of industry in Russia and George J. Ball, the Glen Ellyn sweet pea grower, has found an- other evidence of the nearly necessary character of flowers in the following ex- tract from a newspaper article on busi- ness conditions in St. Petersburg: "There are perhaps half a dozen shops still open in St. Petersburg. There is a government crockery shop and there are a few flower shops. It is a wonderful fact, I think, that in this city in which most of the shrinking population is already nearly starving and hardly anyone possesses a second suit of clothes or more than a single change of linen, flowers can be and still are bought and sold. For ;"),000 rubles, which is about 6s 8d ($1.50) at the cur- rent rate of exchange, one can get a very pleasing bunch of big chrysanthe- mums. ' ' Various Notes. The fuel situation continues to ease up. There will be coal enough and, while it will not be cheap, it will not bankrupt growers to get it. It is the intention of the A. L. Randall Co. to develop its department of plants, bulbs and growers' supplies. William Reid, whose recent marriage with Miss Edna Frauenfelder made it his wish to discontinue traveling, has been placed in charge. Ered Stielow, the Niles Center grower, has been on a hunting trip in Michigan. The A. L.

The feature of the doings was a story of the development of the business, by Sales Manager Galavan. The organiza- tion has been growing so fast that many of its active members were not ac- quainted with its beginnings. The officers of the Florists' Club plan to enhance its new reputation as a social .organization with a dance November 12. Biisiness houses have been asked to subscribe for tickets and give them to their employees, thus assuring solvency and a large attendance. In addition to the party November 12 the committee has arranged progressive cards, any game the ladies like to play, for the entertainment of those who do not dance. N. J. Wietor has discovered a new pompon which he thinks will take a place in the trade ahead of any other white variety. It was raised by H. W. Eieman's Sons, Indianapolis, and when exhibited for the first time, November 22, 1919, scored ninety-seven points, a higher score than was given any other pompon shown to the C. S. A. committees last year. Wietor Bros, bought the en- tire stock, together with the right to rename, the original name of Pearl not being satisfactory. They have this sea- son three benches of the variety, worked up from the original stock of 200 plants. Next season they will plant four houses with it and in the course of time they will offer young stock to the trade. Forty retailers have special window decorations this week in competition for the prizes offered by the Allied Florists' Association. At Morton Grove Poehlmann Bros. Co. has five 250-foot benches of Yellow Chadwick which are the pink of perfec- tion. The first flowers were cut Novem- ber 8. Bassett & Washburn are putting the firemen at Greggs Station on an 8-hour day. Heretofore they have operated only two shifts of twelve hours each. H. N. Bruns reports the first ship- ment of 1920 valley pips as on the rail from New York. The conservatory at Schiller's north side store will be formally opened November 12 and 13. The big glass structike, which was built by the American Greenhouse Mfg. Co., is being filled with a great quantity of plants from Chicago's best growers. While William Stielow, grower, had his ej'es focused on Jack Dempsey at Benton Harbor on Labor day, someone stole his Hudson Supersix, parked at the ringside. Just as Mr. Stielow was about to collect the insurance the other day the car was discovered to have been aban- doned in South Bend nearly two months ago and was returned to him rather the worse for its brief stay in other hands.

He has made it by steady work. August Jurgeus has spent the entire summer on his place at Ridgeland, Miss.

There was a wonderful display of win- ter-flowering begonias of the English type and they surpassed chrysanthe- mums in popular favor. A magnificent display covering several hundred square feet of spac€ came from James Marl- borough, superintendent for Thomas E. Proctor. Over forty varieties were shown and many of these were speci- mens three to four feet across. The fol- lowing were especially fine: Fascina- tion, Sunrise, Altrineham Pink, Em- press, Splendor, Ideala, Optima, Eclipse, Vulcan, Eose Queen, Dazzler, Emily Clibran, one of the best; Rosalind, Pink Perfection, Apricot, Mrs. Heal and Flambeau. This group was charmingly arranged and well merited the gold medal awarded. For six specimen begonias Mr. Marl- borough showed immense plants heavily flowered of Clibran Pink, Emily Cli- bran, Eclipse and Sunrise. Peter Ar- nott, gardener for E. S.

Being terrestrial orchids, they were appropriately plunged and the group, which was of semicircular for- mation, went to a considerable height and was capped with large cibotiums. Below were numerous well flowered specimens of Cymbidium Pawelsii and masses of such oncidiums as Forbesii crispum and Kramerianum, and below them were cypripedium plants, 200 in number. Tufa stone was effectually used among them, also lycopodium and other trailing plants. There were numerous plants of C. insigne San- dersB, Ilarefield Hall, Drcadnaught, Maudise, magnificum, Leeanum, virgi- nale and other choice varieties.

The annual meeting of the Massachu- setts Horticultural Society will take place at Horticultural hall at noon November 13. The election of a presi- dent, vice-president, four trustees and a nominating committee will take place and all members are urged to attend. William Nicholson, of Framingham, is home from an extended western trip. He spent three weeks in and around Bichmond, Ind., and visited all leading growers. On his way home he visited a number of growers in and around New York. He considered the Duckham- Pierson range, at Madison, N. J., the finest he had seen and all stock in grand shape; the Joseph Hill Co. range, at Bichmond, Ind., however, gave it a close run for first place and was quite an eye- opener. William J. Thurston, manager of the Flower Exchange, November 4 received notice from the Hupmobile Co., one of whose cars he owns, that he had been adjudged winner of a $50 prize offered [Concluded on page 58.J PHELADEU^HIA. The Market. Election week in a presidential year promised little floral activity, yet the close of election leaves the market bare, an almost unbelievable state of affairs. The retailers say it is dull, but the ice- boxes of the wholesalers were almost empty at the close of business Saturday, November 6. It is the height of the chrysanthemum season. The shows are right here. Usually there is a big sur- plus at this time. Today there is no surplus. The reason why is clear. Ex- perience has taught the growers that midseason chrysanthemums are un- profitable; late varieties pay better. The planting was planned with this fact in mind. The growers of other flowers have learned that the early part of November is a good time not to produce; a good time to let the queen of autumn rule undisputed. Weather conditions have brought this out more strongly, so supply and demand are evenly balanced. A good deal is said about chrysanthe- mums not bringing the price they should. The facts do not appear to warrant this view. A few fancy chrys- anthemums, show lots from private places, have brought $9 and occasionally $12 per dozen wholesale. Bonnaffon, the splendid commercial yellow, has sold at $25, $30 and now and then $40 per hundred, while good ordinary mums bring $10 to $12 per hundred. Even with the high price of labor, these fig- ures seem fair value, provided there is little depreciation or waste, especially when it is considered that little or no coal is required to grow them since planting them out of pots. Pompons have done well so far, with two exceptions. They are the outdoor and the white. Outdoor-grown pompons are seldom good enough to meet the mar- ket standard of excellence, while white pompons are not popular and pull down the average price. Carnations are improving fast. With their improvement comes a better mar- ket for them. The rich colors like Mrs. C. W. Ward sell fast at top prices, while white sells last at bottom prices. The retailers say that baskets and sprays are more popular than designs, and so white FOR THIS WEEK AND F 0 li Thanksgiving Day there is every indication of a good supply of season- able flowers, especially in CHRYSANTHEMUMS ROSES CARNATIONS and POMPONS There is no shortage of ROSES and we can take care of your orders. We offer you an ample supply in shorts, medium or long Roses, and a selection of fourteen different varieties. Our Leaders in ROSES are RUSSELL and COLUMBIA.

Philadelphia. carnations, especially the short-stemmed white carnations, are not needed, the designs being their principal field^ of usefulness. Boses have been amazingly scarce. One of the leading wholesale houses was obliged to cut its rose orders for four consecutive days. This is probably due to heavy disbudding. Sweet peas are really excellent. Single violets are im- proving. Colored bouvardia has come, so have mignonette and Paper White narcissi and Narcissus Soleil d'Or. The Easter lily crop is at its lightest. There are a few callas. Just now spray orchids are almost as plentiful as cattleyas, which is not saying much. Yellow daisies are still short-stemmed. There seems no immediate hope of the return of the pansy.

The proportion of green was sufficient to enhance the beauty of the blooms. The central position was filled by a large group arranged by William Kleinheinz, of Lynnwood Hall, Ogontz, Pa. This group was formed of a va- riety of choice foliage plants, pots of lilies of the valley and Lilium magnifi- cum, topped by Oncidium varicosum surmounted by a specimen Cibotium Schiedei. There were some excellent specimen chrysanthemums, but the autumn queen's real strength lay in the 6-inch pot grown to a single flower and in the cut blooms. They were tastefully ar- ranged, some with broad oak foliage, some with pin oak foliage and one ex- hibit with velvet between flowers and vases. The varieties in this exhibit were William Turner, Yellow Turner, Nerissa, Meudon, Firestone, Nagirroc, William Bigby, Glenview, Mrs. C. W. Johnson, Nakota, Wm. H. Waite and Louisa Pockett. The cut pompons were excellent. Henry A. Dreer, Inc., put up a fine group of crotons and the seed exhibit was tastefully arranged. Macaw Bros, displayed a choice group of their ferns and Pandanus Veitchii. Henry F. Michell Co. exhibited fine bulbs.

Yesterday. All the greenhouses around Philadel- phia were devoted to miscellaneous col- lections, so to speak, of potted plants and cut flowers. Almost all the florists had some chrysanthemums in the fall, some roses and carnations in winter; some Easter plants followed; last and most important of all, some geraniums and other soft-wooded plants for filling beds and boxes. Nearly everyone felt obliged to take boarders, sick or well, and grumbled about it. Everybody had everything and nobody had anything in winter. Our cut flowers at that season came from Boston and from New York. Then came a change. Wide-awake, far- seeing growers saw possibilities for the future. Edwin Lonsdale and John Burton formed a partnership. They built a greenhouse at Wyndmoor, where the soil was good and the air was pure, expressly to grow specialties for the wholesale cut flower market in Philadel- phia. They ignored tradition. They put all their glass into carefully selected varieties of winter-flowering plants and allowed those who came for a geranium or a lemon verbena to go away empty- handed, without even a sigh. They had flowers in winter when nobody else had them. Thpy had them in quantity and they prospered. American Beauty roses were their great specialty. Today. Alfred Burton and George Burton have three immense ranges of glass where their uncle and their father first built their greenhouses at Wyndmoor. Alfred Burton operates one range. George Burton operates two ranges, his father's, the original Lonsdale and Burtdn range, and his own, built since. On all three ranges the American Beauty still flourishes, with only this difference: They not only supply Phil- adelphia with Beauties, but their Phila- delphia Beauties supply a vast expanse of territory besides. So this wholesale production prospered. Besides Beauties, Alfred Burton^ grows Mrs. Charles Russell in great numbers. His Russell stands at the very top of the list, a rose that can be depended upon to go anywhere with French Immortelles In red, graceful spravs, 6in., $2.50; 9-in., $3.50; 12-in., $5.00; 18-in., $8.00; 24-in., $12.00 per 100.

It seems probable that there will be plenty of lilies for cutting next summer after all that are needed for the early Easter have been forced. Paper White narcissi have become more plentiful than seemed possible at first. This is likely to be reflected in late bulb sales and in the cut flower market. There have been great quantities of Dutch bulbs marketed — hyacinths, tu- lips, daffodils, etc. Despite left-overs and auction sales, the season has been satisfactory to the dealers. Good qual- ity and prompt delivery had their effect. Various Notes. David Anderson built one greenhouse, 40x250 feet, on his place at Garrettford this season. It is planted with Premier.

Beasley & Co., of East Mil- ton, are probably the largest growers of pansies under glass in the country. Thanks to the mild autumn, plants are blooming with wonderful profusion and not only are large quantities of flowers coming into the Boston market, but New York receives a good share. All pansies are bunched in separate colors and un- der glass they carry remarkably long stems. Those producing specially long stems are used for seed purposes. Don't forget the meeting of the Gar- deners' and Florists' Club November 16. There will be talks by George C. Moyse and Andrew Christensen, nomination of officers, displays of late chrysanthe- mums and much important business. The National Grange P. of H. is hold- ing its annual sessions in Boston this week.

Index by Towns Crowded Out of Pink WHY ARE PKICES SO HIGH? Weather Imaginary Cause. Last winter, during the season when flowers were so high and hard to pro- cure at any price, the writer made a careful investigation to find out, if pos- sible, what was the cause of this un- precedented inflation of prices. The main cause, as given by the growers, was weather conditions. We all recall that we had a protracted spell of cloudy weather about this time, yet when one considers the aggregate number of flowers handled by the wholesale houses it was as groat as, if not greater than, that of previous years. This being the fact, is it not reasonable to conclude that the increased demand was the cause of the shortage of stock last winter? I want to drive that point home in the minds of my readers in the simplest English at my command, for, to my thinking, supply is the most im- portant problem the florists of this coun- try have to solve today. The real cause of the high prices last winter was the fact that, at the height of the flower season, there were not enough flowers to meet the demand. Now, we can all go back a short period to the lime when a like condition ex- isted, but there was no trouble to find the cause for that shortage. An epi- demic of influenza was raging from one end of the country to the other, with en- tire {lages of our daily papers devoted to death notices, and in many cases it was impossible to get caskets to bury the dead. Under such circumstances as these, there was no difliculty in tracing the reason for the increased demand for flowers. It is true that the influenza epidemic was in the fall, when, through part of it, outdoor stock was procurable, but is it not a fact that last winter cut flowers were scarcer and higher in price (and, mind you, under normal physical conditions, aside from a little cloudy weather) than they were during the influenza epidemic? Now, just as there was a reason for the one, there must be a reason for the other. In my articles last winter it was my endeavor to show the florists of the country that as the flu was responsible for the first shortage, national advertis- ing was the cause of the second. I was even accused of being an advertising "nut," but just as sure as the flu was responsible in the first place, publicity was in the second. If you will consult the files of The Review you will find that I went so far as to advocate a greater glass area to meet this condition during the present season. What reason have we to suppose that conditions will not be at least as bad during the coming season as they were last? Na- tional publicity has been going on, not by any means as it should; neither has it since it started. I firmly believe that Major O'Keefe realizes that he has the best advertising proposition that he ever handled in "Say It with Flowers. ' ' Why, it 's safe to say that, if we were to give this firm carte blanche with the publicity of this slo- gan, there would not be half enough flowers after the first killing frost to meet the demand. And on top of this national publicity there are local cam- paigns springing up all over the coun- try. Publicity Increases Demand. As 1 write this, Baltimore has just closed a "Say It with Flowers" week that cost about $3,500; Chicago is on the eve of one that will no doubt cost more. In Washington there will be the Chrysanthemum Society of America's show. Similar stunts are being held all over the country, all of which are edu- cating the public to "Say It with Flowers." The question the writer wants to bring home to florists is, why is all this money being spent? When you begin to gather the fruits of all this publicity, are you going to have an ample supply of the goods you have been advertising, or, as in last winter, is the supply going to be so short that the price will be prohibitive? Instead of educating the public to ' ' Say It with Flowers," are you, by the price you aro obliged to charge for them, going to educate them to the idea that flowers are a luxury that no one but the wealthy can afford? The writer is not a "ca- lamity howler" by any means. This article is being written at this time for the sole purpose, right at the beginning of the season, of aiding the growers in keeping tab on conditions throughout the TO We Deliver Direct to Every Outgoing Steamer Sailing from New York City, Hoboken, Brooklyn ' 785 FIFTH AVENUE - vie florists whole cards appMO* on fho paces earrytnc tills bead* are pfepaied to ftU orders. .. — ftrom otiker florists for local d^Tc nr en tbe nsiial basts.

D, season to see if larger produetion (in the face of the publicity flowers are getting) is not absolutely necessary. It is true that there is another alternative, but "breathes there a man with soul so dead ' ' who would take advantage of it, and that is to cut out publicity and let the industry stand where it is today. Why, such a procedure would be like selling your birthright! There is just one course for the florist to pursue. I think it was Orover Cleveland who said, "It's a condition we are facing, not a theory." Meet this condition like the men that you are. There is no doubt in the minds of any of us that publicity creates a demand for flowers. It is too late this season to increase the supply, but watch the demand this winter and meet it as best you can, and prepare for an increased supply next season. Ample Supply Only Bemedy. The tone of this article may convey the impression that, if there is an ab- normal demand this winter, it might be a good thing to slow down on publicity. This is the very time when you want to increase it. Let me cite an instance. During the late war, when the govern- ment took over the entire output of Bull Durham smoking tobacco and not a bag of it could be obtained in this country, the publicity bureau of the to- bacco company worked overtime keep- ing it before the public. Had they closed down this department of their business, :^^.^ ^i:^-. (5) A Tearing Thanksgiving AS TOLD BY JIMMY The Hybeinian Hybrid Jimmy got confidential the other day about his first pair of pants, which he^was allowed to wear for the first time on a Thanksgiving Day. His mother cautioned'him not to go out and play in them, but he "forgot," and in a game of hide-and-seek caught those wonderful pants on a nail and tore them badly. One of the girls, taking pity on Jimmy, sewed up the tear as best she could, with Jimmy in the rants. It was so good a job that his mother never noticed it until at night when he came to take them off; it developed that pants and underwear were sewed together. Jimmy said his mother promptly gave him something hotter than Jamaica ginger, administered with a slipper properly placed. Jimmy said that ended his "trying to get away with things;" that ever since if he is in wrong he makes a clean breast of it. Have a notion that's one of the reasons why so many like to have him wait on them . Whenever I hear of an F. T. D. member having "substi- tuted" stock and tried to get away with it without saying a word, can't help but wish he had torn his first pair of pants and learned Jimmy's lesson early in life. New York's Favorite Flower Shop F^th Avenue at 58th Street it would have been a case of beginning all over, and years of hard work would have been lost. As it was, as soon as they had been released by the govern- ment they were ready to go on the mar- ket, practically where they had left off. Take the present condition of the flower markets all over the country, with weather conditions as they are. In many of them outdoor stock is still to con- tend with and advance and midseason crops of chrysanthemums are forced 6S The Florists' Review NOVBMBKR 11. 1920 upon the iiiarkot; still there is no great glut reported anj'whcre. There can be only one reason for this. That is in- creased deniand. Now, there is not one of us who does not realize that this iiirreased supply can last but a short time and the supi)ly will be back to normal. Then, how about the demand that has been taking care of an abnor- mal supply? The problem is a great one; it is up to the florists to study it and solve it. Tate. ST. LOUIS, MO. The Market. ('(iiiditions at the varinus wholesale markets were si)lendid all last week, with all seasonable flowers iu abun- dance, and the retailer had no trouble ill having his orders filled. The chrys- anthemum, of course, was the ])rineii)al flower in demand. Some regular ])rize- winners were noticed among them, in- cluding blooms of Charles Eager, Mari- gold, Koilev, A])]ileton, Chieft;iiu and Honnatt'on, as wtdl as ."in excellent as- sortment of pomjions, which have had a heavy demand. T'^aton and Chadwick, both yellow and white, are looked for this week. The toj) ju'icc last week was $3 per dozen. The great demand for mums had a depressing effect on other stock. Roses are in large supply and excel- lent stock is coming to this market daily. Russell and Premier are in high color and all fancy grades sell W(>1!. Ophelia and jMilady and White Killav- ncy were more ])lentiful than at any time since the season opened. Carna- tions are coming in, the sup]ily being greater than the demand. Kxhihition varieties, such as Nebraska and Match- less, jsell at $t iicr hundred. Other stock coming in daily is valley, Kaster lilies, sweet jieas, calendulas and snajidragons. I'ajier Whites have made their first a]i- jieaiance and the demand cleaned them out daily. There has been a heavy deniand all the wrrk for ]ilunu)sus, adiaMtum, siiiilax. uahix and flat ferns. Various Notes. The St. Louis County Growers' Asso- ciation held its regular monthly iiaM'ting at Kirkwood at the greenhouses of W. A. Rowc. The meeting was called to or- der by President Martin I'de. Tlie attendance was large and a great deal of important business was disiiosed of. As this association liolds charter No. 2 in the National Flower Growers' Asso- ciation, a reorganization so as to con- form with the national body in const i- tuion and by-laws was discussed and it was decided to call a s]iecial meeting of growers in and aroun(i St. Louis. A committee was appointed to arrange for the meeting at one of the downtown liotels the latter part of the month. J. F. Ammann, the national secretary, will be the ])rincij)al s])eaker. It was also decided that, until a suitable meet- ing jilace could be secured, tiie associa- tion would meet monthly at the estab- lishment of W. A. Kowe, at Kirkwood.

Growers of horticultural products from sixteen states are expected to par- ticipate in the third annual Mid-west Horticultural Exposition, which will be held at Council Bluffs, la., beginning November 15 and continuing for five days. The exposition is under the aus- pices of the Iowa State Horticultural Society, with the Chaniher of Commerce of Council Bluffs cooperating. Its scope is as broad as Ihe field of horticul- ture. If Ihe plans already made arc com- pletely carriqd out, the managers arc confident that this will be one of the most impressive events of the year in the horticultural world. Expense is not being spared. The Conway band, of New York city, Was been engaged at big expense to play at all the sessions. Awards to winning exhibitors will be larger than usual and it is expected that a total of $75,000 will be spent to make this a significant chapter in the horti- cultural liistory of the year.

This was especially true (if dahlias. One cannot remember when the dalilia crop was cut so com- pletely. Tliere is liardly a bud left for the frost to kill. Mums arc here in all tlicir glory, but the season will not be so long as usual. Bonnaffons are ali'cady on the market and the late varieties will lake the place of the midseason ones. Both in the wliolesale and retail stores the shortage of good pink is lamented; j-ellow and white are in good sujiply and of fine quality. There is a tine supply of medium grades this sea- son, but good pompons are scarce. As usual, the mum is king at this time and other lines of stock are only used when it is nccessaiw. As mums can be used in almost any kind of work, this does not often occur. The prices run tlie entire gamut. As high as $8 per dozen is asked for some extras. I can give no better idea of the state and temper of the market than to say that stock of tliat qualitv is the first and easiest to sell. Tlie rose crop is being held in check as much as possible until mums are out of the way. The roses that are finding their wa.y into the market certainly in- dicate that there is going to be a fine crop this season.

Ill tlicir case, again, the outlook is si)l(>n(lid, as to quantity, quality and variety. Violets are not in great sup- jily yet, but there are enough for the demand and they sell well. Inside snap- dragon has made its appearance, but the stems are short and the quality is of the advance kind. Paper Whites are also to bo had in small quantities and the same is true of green goods. In discussing the market, a leading wholesaler remarked that while prices liad been lower this fall than usual, the sales of his firm would total more than during jirevious seasons. This can mean but one thing, that more stock had been handled and that there is a greater demand for flowers. Various Notes.

The arrangements are in the hands of William McKissick, of the Leo Nicssen Co. There were several Halloween win- dows which attracted a great deal of attention. Mary .Tohnston had one that would answer as well for a harvest home occasion. Eobert Johnston had all of the products of the farm most taste- fully arranged, from the shock of corn down. Robert L.

In tlie first place the election, the most vital issue, interfered with social functions; secondly, there has been such a mass of outdoor flowers arriving, because of the lack of a kill- ing frost, and the warm sunshine and clear days liavc brought along the in- door stock so rapidly, that growers are beginning to wonder where the chrys- anthemums will come from for Thanks- giving.

DENVER, COLO. The Market. Business was good during the week ending November 6, the stores reporting a fairly busy week. There has been considerable funeral work and prices are practically unchanged. Chrysanthe- mums are not so plentiful, the smaller varieties being about gone and the later ones not having yet arrived in quantity. In roses, medium grades are a little scarce. Carnations are coming in more heavily all the time, but con- tinue to move well. Sweet peas are get- ting bettor in quality. A few Easter lilies and violets complete the list. Shipping has been excellent. Various Notes. From the number of bulbs received this fall it looks as though there might be some dilliculty in disposing of them next spring. John P^nisbacli left last week for Los Angeles. Mr. Emsbach was a pioneer in tlie trade in this city, having followed the business for thirty-five years.

E. E. H. MILWAUKEE, WIS. The Market. Since cooler weather set in the mar- ket has been brisk. Business has been much better the last two weeks. Mums are arriving in nice shaj)e now, in all sizes and varieties. A nice lot of pom- ])ona is moving excellently. There is an exceptionally fine lot of roses coming in. The supply of carna- tions is not moving as well as it should. This is due to the trade buying pompons in place; of carnations during the mum season. There is a limited quantity of violets and sweet peas coming in and they find a ready sale. Various Notes. The F. T.

HOW THEY WERE NAMED. Although the popular name clings to the flower, in most cases the bloom is high born and the name is derived from the Latin, Greek or French. Pansy derives its name frota the French, pensees, meaning thoughts. Carnation, which superseded the old name gilliflower, is taken from the Latin word caro, meaning flesh. Primrose, because of its early bloom- ing, is styled the first rose and derives the prefix, prim, from the Latin prima (rosa). Tansy is from the Greek and signifies immortality. The word is derived from the Greek athanasia, deathlessness. Geranium can also be traced back to MARION, OHIO 6 railroads with good connectiona to all parts of State A GOOD SELECTION OF FLOWEKS ON BAND AT AUi TIMX8. BLAKE'S, 140 W.

Bhubarb has an ancient title and i.s corrupted from Rha barberum. Rha was the old name of the river Volga, on the banks of which the plant grew. TROUBLE WITH CYCLAMENS. I have some cyclamens in 4-iiicli and 5-inch pots. The plants stood the warm weather, but during the last six weeks there has been considerable rain and some cold nights and they are not doing well. Fine, large plants in 5-inch pots wilt and in two days turn rotten at the root. During the day my house was warm and I spraj'ed the plants twice a day and dampened the walks. The soil was light. My mixture was five barrows of soil, one of well rotted manure, ;i 7-inch pot of horn shavings and enough sand to keep the soil from packing. Some of the foliage has turned yello^v and dried up, although the root is solid and in a short time makes new foliage, though not so strong as the first. H. L. U.— Kan.

' An interesting exhibit at the flower show, Pasadena, Cal., October 28 to 30, was that of Siebrecht's House of Flow- ers. The feature of this exhibit was a display of twelve varieties of roses, which were much admired. At one end was a collection of ferns, including Asplenium Nidus-avis, or bird's-nest fern, in variety, and platycerium, or stag-horn fern; also specimens of Cocos Weddelliana. At the opposite end was a collection of anthurium; strelitzia, or bird of paradise; seedlings of Cattleya Bowringiana, Forbesii and labiata superba; Oncidium varicosum, and Odontoglossum grande, or baby orchid. In front of the exhibit were vases of sweet peas. Sweetheart roses and vio- lets. At the close of the show, the en- tire exhibit was donated to the Pasa- dena hospital and the Pasadena home of the aged. LOS ANGELES, CAL. The Market. An abundance of stock, with a good shipping business and an average retail demand, sums up the market conditions as they existed last week. Mums are at their best and seldom have the growers had such a good season. The weather has been in favor of fine stock and the Appleton, Turner, Chieftain and other late midscason stock are at their best. Orchids are a little more plentiful, but the prices continue high. Valley is good and there is enough to go around. Carnations are well up to standard. Roses have fallen off a little in quality, but are still good. Dahlias are holding out well and are of better quality than usual at this time of the year. Good plumosus is coming in now and heavy shipments are being made. Cyclamen is the best seller in potted plants. Various Notes. Charles Brazee, the well known florist and bulb grower of Wilmington, Cal., has recently purchased twelve acres of land on the harbor boulevard and in- tends moving his entire stock there next season, the lease on his present quarters expiring July, 1921. Besides his large stock of bulbs, Mr. Brazee will grow a large supply of statice, delphinium and other hardy stock, and will erect a dwell- ing house and retail store at the new location. As this is on the main thor- oughfare from the city to the harbor, there is a constant stream of traffic dur- ing the whole year, and this should prove profitable for his retail trade. A look through the lath houses de- voted to plumosus at Harry Bailey's place, at Montebello, shows that Mr. Bailey has excelled his own record for fine, well developed sprays of this popu- lar green. The stock is remarkably clean and consists of medium-length sprays, just the kind that all growers aim to get, but not always with success. Because of the large quantity grown, Mr. Bailey is able to let each section develop thoroughly before it is cut. In the houses devoted to seed growing, the seed crop is, perhaps, a little below the average in quantity, but the quality should be fine, judging from present appearances. A later crop will, unless cold weather conditions set in early, be developed by spring. There is also a big crop of Sprengeri seed ripening rap- idly. Freesias are just coming through, the earliest being about four inches high, and are so well liked by the trade that Mr^ Bailey has already booked large orders for 1921 delivery. Gebhard Prechtl is especially success- ful in the propagation of Erica melan- thera, and judging by the appearance of his latest batch of 75,000 cuttings, not one per cent has missed. He is also busy cleaning and shipping gladiolus bulbs, a big stock of Schwaben being handled by him. Mr. Prechtl calls at- tention to the extraordinary freedom of this popular variety. The establishment of Boy F. Wilcox & Co., at Montebello, shows colitinued progress. Possibly the biggest thing of all is the kentias, which are here in hundreds of thoqsands, from seedlings to finely developed specimens. The stock is always kept so that the large sizes will not crowd the smaller plants. As they reach the 2%-inch pot size they are planted out under lath and grown until fit for another potting, as single or made-up specimens. Besides the kentias there are large and thriving blocks of Phoenix Roebelenii, P. Ganari- ensis and other popular palms. While too late for freight shipments to the east this year, Mr. Wilcox has prospects of carload lots going back by express, a method of shipping that is becoming increasingly popular. Another large lath house is to be built at once and another next year, the idea being to have sufficient room so that these large houses may be brought along in rotation year by year. It looks as though Mr. Wilcox will have the whole thirty-five MUMS MUMS The usual high quality shipping stock that we always handle. PACKED RIGHT. ALL OTHER STOCK IN SEASON.

Interesting, too, was a breadth of Prima Donna, with such marvelous flowers in November that the writer did not recognize this well known variety. The dwarf form of pomegran- ate is beautifully in flower now and Mr. Wilcox regrets that it cannot be held for Christmas. It surely would make a wonderful Christmas plant. While there has been some trouble with yellows in the heather, there will still be a wonder- ful crop of melanthera here, many of the plants being seven feet in height, with buds set from top to bottom. Acres of boxwood, Cocos plumosa, eugenia and other nursery stock are coming in fine shape and the whole place shows the effect of good manage- ment and well considered improve- ments. The E. C.

This company is noted for its shipping. George Hall, of George Hall & Co., says business has been a little slow, but is picking up. Although boycotted by the Japanese growers — for a day — Tom Wright is still in business at the old stand.

Fraser & Son are handling an extra fine strain of double cosmos, with flowers of a great variety of colors and shades and stems long, stiff and wiry, fine for baskets and other high- class florists' work. Though there are several strains of double cosmos on the market, they are the raisers of this type and hold the entire stock. H. B. B. SAN FBANOISOO, OAI.. The Market. Chrysanthemums still dominate the market, though some of the large varie- ties, grown under cloth, are at the end of their season. Turner is practically over and Chieftain is growing scarcer every day. If heavy frosts and storms hold off, however, there will probably be a fair supply of chrysanthemums un- til the middle of December. For the last ten days the weather has been as sunny and warm as in June, though the nights have brought occasional light frosts. There is an abundance of out- door mums of all colors and sizes and these are extensively used, both locally and for shipping. The fact that eastern growers now have mums coming in more plentifully has caused some of the ship- pers to have a certain number of orders canceled, though others report as much activity in mums as ever. Good roses and carnations are still scarce, partly because the demand for them is so brisk that the market is cleaned up every day. Violets are in excellent condition for shipping and the market is abundantly supplied with them. Orchids and gardenias are some- what more plentiful. Lilies of the val- ley are still scarce and in much demand. VariouB Notes. Landscape gardening, until recently a neglected art in the planning of California homes, seems rapidly to be coming into its own. One of the latest landscape gardening announcements is that of Cotton & Co., landscape archi- tects in the Call building, who have completed plans for a little formal gar- den with tea house, pool and wall foun- tain on the property of Mrs. M. E. Gaines, in Piedmont, a fashionable suburb of Oakland. The estimated cost is $2,500.

There is much demand for them from art stores and designers of baskets containing odd and unusual color effects. Domoto Bros, are cutting their roses and report an exceptionally fine crop, especially of Eussell and Ophelia. M. Domoto said: "Of our new roses, Madame Butterfly is much in demand in this market at present. I think it will soon take the place of Ophelia, for it is larger and of a deeper, richer color." Enomoto & Co. have laid in a large stock of Chinese lily bulbs, in anticipa- tion of an exceptionally busy Christmas season. Of these flowers, which bloom so abundantly in water for some grow- ers and refuse a single bloom to others, Mr. Enomoto says, "The secret of pro- ducing flowers is to slit the outer brown covering, as the bulb breaks apart and expands. If the bulb is too tightly com- pressed by the outer casing in the j)rocess of expansion, there will be no flowers." The Growers' Cut Flower Co. special- izes in pansies and its crop is now com- ing into the market in good shape. Pelicano, Eossi & Co. have had an un- usual amount of funeral work during the last week. V. L.

Third St. DATTON, OHIO 120 The Florists^ Review NOTBMBBB 11. 1929 PAINESVILLE, O. Clay top soil is exceptionally scarce in this vicinity, much of it having been ased lately for different purposes. John Williams, formerly of the J. M. Gasser Co., Cleveland, 0., is now with the Storrs & Harrison Co., in the green- house department. Tony Eich, for many years foreman at the Martin Kohankie nurseries, has accepted a position with the Wayside Gardens, Mentor, O. Mr. and Mrs. Merkel, senior members of the firm C. Merkel & Son, have gone to California to spend the winter months. J. L. Wetzel & Son shipped a carload of shrubs and ornamentals to Jackson & Perkins Co., Newark, N. Y., last week. W. F. Bohlender, of Tippecanoe City, was a visitor last week. The Perry Gardens, at Perry, 0., are advertising dahlias and gladioli in the local paper. J. E. White, in charge of the bulb de- partment of the Storrs & Harrison Co., says the demand for bulbs this year was much heavier than usual. This is due to the uncertainty of the coal situation. As bulbs require little fuel for growing, florists thought it better to be on the safe side. ' T. J. M. CLEVELAND, O. The Market. With the exception of Saturday, No- vember 6, the first week in November found the market dull. Mums are com- ing in better. For some reason or an- other white predominates, while yellow and pink are not so plentiful. The lat- ter, of course, are iu greater demand. Some fine disbudded pompons are com- ing into the market now. Eoses are better and a little more plentiful, but almost all the stock is shipped in and must be used immediately. Various Notes. Miss Katherine O'Connor has pur- chased a new delivery truck. C. E. Barton, of Norwalk, was a vis- itor last week. Mr. Johnston, of Johnston's Flower Shoppe, Canton, O., was a visitor last week. W.

Although business on the whole is slightly better than it was a year ago, there was a slight falling off last week. The social calendar for the remainder of the season gives indications of busy weeks to come. Weather conditions have so far been a continuance of Indian summer and although it is the beginning of the second week of November there have as yet been only a few slight frosts. Prices have sagged a trifle dur- ing the last week. Various Notes. Thomas H. McAndrew has resigned his position with T. J. Johnston & Co. and is now with the S. S. Krcsge Co. Timothy O'Connor was in New York last week on a business trip. A. J. Johnson, who has been confined to his home by illness for several weeks, is reported as improving. Ed. Brooke, of T. J. Johnston & Co., was a business visitor at Boston and vicinity last week. Miss Nellie 0 'Connor had a large wed- ding decoration last week. M.

Banked about the show room were masses of chrysanthemums, includ- ing white and yellow Turner and pink and white Chieftain, with bunches of pompons here and there. There was also a generous display of roses of the popular varieties. A 4-piece orchestra furnished music each evening of the show.

IMO Greenhouse Heating SuBSORiBiBS are inrited to write the editor of thia department with reg^ard to any details of greenhouse heating that are not understood. 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 amount 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. INSUI.ATE THEEITT FEET. I am installing a Oiblin No. 70 hot water boiler for my four greenhouses, 20x150 feet. Instead of putting up a building next to the greenhouses for the boiler, I intend to put the boiler in the basement of my residence, which is about thirty feet from greenhouse No. 1. The floor of the basement is five feet below the floors of the greenhouses. The top of the boiler is on a level with the floor of the greenhouses. Can I run a pipe from the boiler on a level with the ground outside to the nearest greenhouse, and then elevate the pipe and run it on a slope to the end of the greenhouses and bring the returns back underground to the boiler, boxing both pipes with asbestos to keep in the heatt What would you suggest t G. F. M.— Cal. There should be no difficulty in run- ning the flow pipe as outlined above. Unless it is possible to locate the ex- pansion tank in the greenhouse above the highest point in the flow pipe, an air valve will be necessary. The ex- pansion tank may then be connected with the flow pipe before it is carried outside of the basement. It should, of course, be located at a level higher than the highest point in the system. If the flow and return pipes are properly in- sulated, the loss of heat between the residence and the greenhouses will be negligible. HEATING WITH STEAM. I am sending sketch of my two green- houses. What would be the best way to run the pipes in them? I have an American Badiator Co. steam boiler No. 207, rated at 2,000 feet, which is also used to heat my residence. Also advise as to the proper size of pipe. I have a quantity of 1%-inch pipe on hand, which I should like to use as far as pos- sible. I wish to maintain i temperature of about 60 degrees in both houses. H. E. v.— Mich. From the sketch it appears that there are two connected houses, each 13%x40, with sixteen inches of glass in the side walls. While it would be preferable to use 1%-inch or 2-inch pipe for the flows in both houses and 1%-inch or 1-inch pipe for the returns, it will be satisfac- tory if 1%-inch pipes are used for both flows and returns. For 60 degrees it will be necessary to use one 1%-inch flow pipe and either five 1%-inch, six 1%-inch or eight 1- inch returns in each house. It is stated that one house has raised benches and I infer that the other house has solid beds. The flow pipes should be one foot below the ridges and "Ain't it a Grand and Cloriou* Feeling ?"

This principle makes the KROESCHELL Policy the most liberal of all in the Green- house Boiler business. The great variety of boilers that we make places us in a commanding position. It is the KROESCHELL principle to supply only the type of boiler best suited for the conditions. For this reason we always furnish the most efficient boiler unit in every case. CAN SHIP ANY SIZE AT ONCE NOT CAST IRON NOT CAST IRON TELEGRAPH ORDERS AT OUR EXPENSE The KROESCHELL has proven its worth in many of the large establishments in this country. It has frequently been selected by the most careful buyers in competition with all other types of boilers. Its efficiency and capacity are com- pletely beyond any other boiler. KROESCHELL BOILERS have no bulky, soot accumu- lating surfaces— you avoid the disagreeable work and trouble indispensable to cleaning boilers with compli- cated and tortuous back and forth passages. The superiority of our boilers has resulted in the removal and abolishment of hundreds of cast iron sectional boilers— in every instance KROESCHELL BOILERS give more beat with the same piping with less fuel.

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.

I intend to grow a general line of potted plants for the retail trade. We have a temperature sometimes as low as 10 degrees below zero. I want a boiler large enough so that I can add a propa- gating house, 10x20 feet. A. R. — Ih. To heat the residence, the office and the three greenhouses, about 2,000 square feet of radiation will be re- quired and to carry it with economy I advise the use of a boiler rated at 2,500 square feet, or slightly more. The residence will require about 350 square feet, the office 150 feet, the smaller greenhouse 700 feet and the larger one 750 square feet, for 60 de- grees. These figures may be reduced about one-fourth if a temperature of 50 degrees will answer. To heat the greenhouses to 60 degrees, you should use three 2%-inch flow pipes and nine 2-inch returns. In case 50 de- grees will suffice in zero weather, only six returns will be needed. In the propagating house use one 2%-inch flow pipe and five 2-inch returns. SIZE OF PIPE.

Frosts have killed most of the out- door flowers, thereby increasing the de- mand for greenhouse blooms. While there is a fair deinaiid for flowers now, the winter season for florists has not yet begun. The scarcity of coal, plus the diffi- culty of securing it, has a tendency to reduce the amount of cultivation under glass. The decrease for this reason, however, will not be large. Various Notes. Cluirles hutiiy, 36."? Springfield ave- nue, reports that business is quiet. Thousands of jiersous have visited tlie annual fiill exhibition of chrysantlie- munis and begonias at the greenhouses at Br;iiich Brook ])ark. There were 2,000 mums exhibited, ranging from the stately William Turner to the tiny golden pompons. There were 1,500 be- goftias on exhibition. R. B. M.

In fact, the demand has been good and stock has been mov- ing quite satisfactorily. Some fine chrysanthemums and pompons are to be seen in this market, and roses of all varieties are coming in nicely. It ap- pears, however, that there may develop a shortage of roses. Some good sweet peas are coming in daily. Carnations are also coming along nicely and will continue to improve as the weather keeps cool. Chrysanthemums are now the most popular flowers and are arriv- ing in large quantities. Various Notes. Joseph Dilloff, of Wertheimer Bros., New York, stopped at Pittsburgh on his trip to the west. The Pittsburgh Florists' Association held a meeting at the Seventh Avenue hotel, Thursday, November 4, at 7 p. m. There were twenty-seven florists pres- ent. As the organization has not been active for several years, reorganization was given careful consideration and, after each member present pledged him- self to support the new organization, the chairman, Ira C. Harper, suggested that the election of officers take place for the ensuing year. The following officers were elected: President, Ira C. Harper; vice-president, Harvey Sheaff; secre- tary, E. E. Ludwig; treasurer, G. P. Weaklen. The organization expects to take in all florists within a radius of sixty miles from Pittsburgh. The sur- rounding suburbs and towns were well represented at this meeting. Emil Winter has just been granted a permit to erect a greenhouse at Lynd- hurst, on Beechwood boulevard. It is understood this is to be the largest pri- vately owned greenhouse in this district. T. P.

THEIPS ON CARNATIONS. "Dear Mr. Editor: Please advise how to remedy the trouble affecting Carna- tion buds mailed under separate cover. Kansas. F. W, F. Ans: "The Carnation buds are badly infested with Thrips. Upon opening up two or three of the buds we found them alive with these pests. Thrips are one of the worst enemies that Carnation growers have to deal with, and the only way to fight them successfully is to get after them by spraying the plants regularly with the Nicotine preparations as soon as they are planted into the houses from the field and keep at it continually until weather conditions will allow for fumi- gation. For stubborn cases we spray with HAMMOND'S THEIP JUICE No. 2, applied as per directions on the cans. This is an oily substance, and will cause the foliage of the plants to look a lighter green, but we have never found it to harm the foliage at all. C. W. JOHNSON," THBIP JXnOE NO. 2 ON BOSES. Hopeland Estate, Staatsburg, N. Y., Dec. 20, 1913. Hammond's Paint & Slug Shot Works, Beacon, N. Y. Dear Sirs: I have used your THBIP JUICE No. 2 on outdoor Boses, also Boses indoors, as well as Bay Trees and other hard-wooded stock, and can say it is a most eflBcient remedy for Scale, Mealy Bug and Thrips. Very truly yours, (Signed) CHAS. HAEMAN, Supt. Kansas City, Mo., Oct. 7, 1914. CoL Wm. Sharp, for more than twenty-five years grower for Samuel Murray, says: "I have found THBIP JUICE No. 2 very effective for White Scale on Cattleyas and variegated Pineapples, Brown Scale on Ficus and Palms. While several applications may be necessary, it is cheaper in the end than Nicotine and far more effective. Our farmer finds it a cure for the Curculio on Plums. Send along five gal- lons as before." W. M. Springfield, Ohio, Feb. 17, 1915. Schmidt & Botley Co. endorse THBIP JUICE No. 2 for killing the White Fly. They believe in prevention, and took steps at once to destroy it. Gustav Schneider says he uses THBIP JUICE No. 2 regularly, more as a preventive, and never had a finer lot of Chrysanthemums than last season. At one time the plants were affected with rust, but one or two sprayings brought them around. Charlotte, N. C, Nov. 14, 1914. Eobert Lockerbie, many years with the Eobt. Craig Co., and now grower for the Charlotte Cut Flower Co., says he has used all makes of Insecticides and is now using THBIP JUICE No. 2 for Thrips on Chrysanthemums and Carnations. The dilution of one to forty is proper. Sprayed on cloudy days, every week or ten days, left on foliage for 48 hours, it never fails to kill the insect and the slight discoloration on foliage is offset by its usefulness. W. M.

Bates has been added to the sales force at this shop, taking the place made vacant when P. F. Case left the florists ' trade to give full time to his conserve plant. A nice run of floral work for the last fortnight is reported by Kenney's Home of Flowers. This shop has made a fine showing of potted cyclamens.- The Orpheum Floral Co. has been featuring baskets of the smaller dahlias and pompons to good effect. It also reports good sale for Bonnaffons. The Woodlawn Flower Shop reported a number of table decorations for home and club events during the last week. Miss Zula Oreen, bookkeeper for this firm, has returned from an extended eastern vacation trip. Owing to delay in the completion of the building at Fourth avenue and Pine street, Carl Melby is still unable to occupy his new shop there. This was to have been completed about October 1. The Art Floral Co. has been making special displays of potted ferns of late and has been able to report especially good sales of the smaller ferns sold in odd-shaped jardinieres. Local friends were shocked last week to learn of the sudden death of Wil- liam M. Goodchild, nurseryman and landscape gardmier. Friends heard a dog barking strangely in their front yard and investigation showed that Mr. Goodchild had fallen dead of heart di- sease, while on his way to visit them. Felix Rosaia reports a number of church decorations for weddings lately. He has used Bonnaffon and Turner mums for most of these events. H. M. NEWPORT, R. I. Leikens, of this city and New York, decorated for the wedding of Miss Euth King, in New York, November 4, the arrangements being quite elaborate. Mrs. Joseph Leikens came to Newport election day for the purpose of casting her vote. She said that she was proud to cast her first ballot in Newport, where her husband claimed residence. W. H. M.

Plenty of the large types are available in yellow and white, but pink blooms are a little scarcer. Pompons, singles and the smaller types are available in large numbers in pink, yellow and white. The bronze and red are slower in ap- pearing. Yellow and white Turner arc beginning to come in. These are ex- cellent blooms and bring from $7.50 to $9 per dozen. Other types range from $1.20 up per dozen. Before election, business was dull, but it has opened up since. Although con- siderable stock has been coming into the" market, there has not been a great waste. Carnations are in large supply. Con- siderable funeral work has helped util- ize them. Good stock has held at $3 and $4 per hundred, although poor stock can be had at almost any figure. Roses are scarce. This is fortunate, as the demand for them has not been brisk. Potted plants have been in good de- mand. Ciirysanthemuni plants are in special favor. Some attractive plants of tlie Caprice family are being offered. Various Notes. E. H.

The town in which they are located happens to be much interested in political matters. The day before election thi.-^ firm started a publicity campaign, persuading the populace that if they were for Cox they should wear a white rnuni and if for Harding, a yellow mum. The slo_gan was, "Show vour ''olora on election day." They did. J^.vi'elsior Springs holds loyal followers of both parties and the wearing of the flowers gave everyone an excellent chance to display his loy- alty. Every man who wore no mum in his buttonhole was asked by jesters if he was ashamed to show his colors. It followed that nearly every man wore a mum, and the direct result to the originators of the idea was that Excel- sior Greenhouses completely sold out their large stock of mums 1 ; > The Florists^ Review NOVKMlimt 11, ID'Jn GREENHOUSES t KING CONSTRUCTION CO.

ADA PTAB ILIT Y The outstanding feature of PERMANITE is its adaptability to serve the particular purpose for which it is especially manufactured. PERMANITE is primarily a glazing Cement. It can be used for other purposes as well, but since the materials incorporated into the manufacture of PERMANITE must be of the very best to enable it to stand up under all sorts of conditions, PERMANltE is TOO GOOD to be used for any purpose except glazing. Surely you realize this! PERMANITE, besides making your Greenhouse permanently tight and reducing your coal bill to a minimum, will also greatly reduce glass breakage.

The cheaper hotbed sash will not last as long as ours. We have been making hotbed sash Tor over fifty years and have seen instaLces again and again where cheaper hotbed sashes have rotted out while ours were stili as good as new. The reason for this is simple. We use only sap-free Ked Gulf cypress ind we put in the very best of work- manship. Whenever a sash has sap in the lumber it rots out quickly and the average florist is not enough of a lumber expert to tell sap in cypress. He finds it out, however, when the sash decay in short order. We carry a large number of hotbed sash in stock and will welcome your order. JOHN C.

The most discriminating buyers are inspecting, buy- ing our stock and giving us repeat orders. (We have the varieties and the quality.) NO PACKING CHARGE. What our customers say about our quality and packing: From North Carolina: "It is with great pleasure and satisfaction to report to you that the shipment of cyclamen reached me in first- class condition. I give you full credit for the way you packed the shipment. That's the way to pack plants, and not just slap them in like so many shippers are doing nowadays. Everyone seems to be mighty anxious to sell goods and get the money, but don't give a rap how goods reach the buyer. Enclosed find check for additional order." From Arizona: "Dupl'cate our order of the 24th; did not think shipment could be made this far." "Received 400 cyclamen from the east and they can't touch yours. " "Cyclamen arrived; well pleased with quality and they were packed fine." "Enclosed find check for $300.00; eyes arrived in fine shape and we are well pleased with the stock." Not the cheapest that are offered, because quality stock cannot be had cheap. Nor the highest prices, because we have a large quan- tity and can afford to share profits with you; just the best that can be had for the money.

The resources at hand are so large and full of ()])i)ortunity for the in- genious decorator that one wonders why more use not made. Many florists accomjilisli striking results at this time of year, both in beautilication of their store •windows and in attracting tran- sient trade. When the advent of cold weather has put an end to garden flow- ers the time is auspicious for the ret;iiler to draw the public's notice to the green- house jiroduct. Though he may do so in other ways as well, he is overlooking one of his best mediums if he neglects his show window. Advertising men tell us that illust lions rei'nforce reading copy and are often, of more importance t h a n the latter in carrying a selling message. We all of us admit the force of this assertion and recog- nize its truth froin our own ex])eriencc. Since that is the case, the dis- play window, which is one ste]i, at least, better t h a n illustration, i>re- senting the real jiroduct, instead of its picture, to the eye, should be of even greater advertising vain e. And .it is, as those florists who h a v e d e vote d thought and efl'ort to this bramdi ol' their jiublicity — for-as such it should be consid- ered— will bear witness. Value Demonstrated. It is not easy to count returns in dtdlars and cents from the invest- ment of employees 'time, m o n e y for accessories and stock from the ice- box which is put into a window disjilay. IJut it has been f r e q u e n 1 1 y demonstrated that it has a decide d ability to bring b u y e r s into the store. Moreover, those florists who have once undertaken the effort and expense necessary to stage pretentious dis- jilays in their windows in no case ha\e discontinued such elTort ;ind exjicnse from a conclusion tiiat they are un- profitable. Katlier have they progressed to more and more elaborate and ambi tious (uitlays in this direction. This fact should be enough to persuade any backward individual florist of the wis- dom of utilizing his store window as a trade-getter. Ami at this time of vear for urji this ■ to- the many materials at hand jiurpose should be a |>arti<'ulai ward such action on his jiart. Season Offers Aid. The harvest season brings a generous variety of outdoor aicjs to window dress- ing, while the arrival of c(dd weather incri'ases the contribution, in cjualify and quantity, of the greenhouses. Chief among the latter, oi^ course, are chrys- anthemums, whose wide range of colors makes them jiarticularly valuable for this kill. I (if work. After the small flowers of summer, the big exhibition blooms of the queen of autumn are themselves enough to draw many jiass- ers' gaze.

"I would suggest that the women wear a ycdlow chrysanlhemum and the men a yidlow poni]ion, as at this season Cross-Section View of the Store of O. C. Saake, Ready for the Day's Business.

I am sure that eNcryeiii' who reads this arti- cle can recall some unjileasant experi- ence^ coniiccteil with tins jiart of the business. Tlicic are many who will not lianiik' this class of business under any circumstances; they lia\e sim])ly made a rule not to do it, and live up to that rule. .This sometimes means tliat they incur the ill will of a Ljood customer and in many cases lose that customer. But their arfjumeiit, Mliich is a jjjoorl one, is that it is a llfty-fifty ehance that they ■would h;i\(' lost the customer anyhow, even thoii;;li they liad cai'ed for the ]dants throuLjh an entire winter, if, when S]iriii<; came, they had not a niu(h bet- ter jilant to return than was recei\ed in the I'.all.

And that is just what yon want them to realize, for this is a fact, for the tdd l)lant under the most favor.able condi- tions and care will never again be a ])erfect plant. But the ])oint for the florist to look iit during the high cost of labor is that you are ]iaying for every live minutes sjient u])on that plant. Labor Charges. After over forty years' connect i(ni with the florists' business, I do not be- lieve that there is another industry in the world today in which so little at- tention is jiaid to labor. Did you ever stoj) to think that if something goes wrong with the ])lumbing system in your home and you call a j)lumber, he charges from the time he leaves his shop until he gets back, ,'ind they are not ]>ikers when it comes to charging. Bat the jioint is, who would expect them to do otherwise just because you liappened to be a good customer? The public is edu- cated to ]dumbers' charges, as they are to other mechanics' charges. What is the reason for this? Well, there is a rea- son and one that we, as a trade, have to face. The mechanics were paying mechanics' wages when the florists were gettinff well trained men for anywhere from if 10 to $2') and board per month. In other words, the mechanic was obliged to be careful in his charge for every item of labor. How many are there reading this article who cannot remember the time when a customer came to your range and bought an order of plants and you were only too glad to hook up a horse and send a man to plant them? Your man's labor was never counted, but could you, with the high cost of labor and gasoline, afford to do that today? Figure Cost. But to get back to housing plants over winter. It was my privilege to be in a com])any of florists recently when this question was discussed and it was most interesting. One man, who has been most successful as a grower, said that he thought seriously of inaugurat- ing a "Bertillon system" in his busi- ness; that is, to take a photograph of the plant when it was received and, if there was any question, produce this when the plant was called for. But there was a man in that company who is a statistician; he knows the cost of ]iroduction of everything on his jdace; he has the housing of plants figured down to a daily rate. I shall just use one illustration: For plants in 6-)nch or S-inch [lots, the charge is 2^2 and 3 cents ]ier d;iy for the number of days they are in his charge, payable monthly. This is for s])acc and ordinary care; all other charges, such as repotting, pruning, etc., NovEMnEii 18, 1020 The Florists^ Review 23 Opening Day in the Big Conservatory of the North Side Store of Schiller the Floristt Chicago. are extra.

Thanksgiving); day has a stronger ap- peal in Now PJnglaiul than in any other part of the United States, for not far from Boston was the first Thanksgiv- ing day celebrated, 299 years ago next Thursday. Perliaps there is more senti- ment attached to the holiday in that section on that account and perhaps, as a consequence, more Uowers are sold there for tlie day than are sold else- where. Or fterhaps the sale of flowers at Thanksgiving is the result of force- ful advertising, in quality and quantity, bj' florists there. An exanijile of it is re])roduceil on page 22, that of I'enn the Florist. This ad- vertisement is being run in the Hus- ton news]iapers this month. The sjiacc devoted to Thanksgiving day advertis- ing by I'enn is greater tliis year than ever before. The day has been a good 0110 from a florist's jxiint of view in past years, but Henry I'enn thinks it mav be made a better one. SCHILLER HOLDS OPENING. I'Tiday and Saturday, .N'oveinln r 12 and 1.'^, the big conscrxatory just inm- ]ileted at the north side sturc of Scliiller the Florist, at liroadw.iy and ]\eiuii\orc avenue, Chicago, was formally o|MJiled to the jiublic. The occasion wax' niade a notable one in the busy Wilsoi/ avenue district. An orchestra played during the afternoons and evenings and re- freshments were served to visitors. Fach fair guest was presented with a bunch of violets to wear. The conservatory, which fills the sjiace formerly occupied by the green- houses, between the flower store on the acute-angled corner and tlie neighbor- ing building, was constructed by the AiiK^rican Greenhduso Mfg. Co. At the same time, the store was altered to make some impro\ements. The total cost was in the neighborhood of $.30,000, according to General Manager George Asinus. Fur the oi)ening the store was filled with a big (lis]il;iy of fine cut blooms, including nc)t only all the staple lines liiit also some no\elties to interest vis- iturs. ill the conservatory was an ex- cfodiiijrly extensive array of chrysan- IliciiHun ;ind foliage ]ilants of all de- scriptions, for the structure requires a large outlay to fill its ample ]>ropor- t ions. The conservatory covers an odd- shapeil ]iiece of ground, about fifty feet wide at oiK^ end and eighty feet ,'it the other. Since the ends are not ]);irallel, the length of the grci'iihouse is sixty feet on Broadway and ninety live feet on Kenmore. The problem of coxering this odd piece of ground was s(dvi'd by making a double-(lecked greenhouse, with it portion of the roof flat and a smaller greenhouse erected on top of this flat ]iortion. The sides of the house are twelve feet in height, and from the ground to the peak of the roof is thirty-two feet. Eight main columns supiiort the center and seven columns sujijiort the sides between the center and the wall. The building has a red cement floor. It is heated by hot water. The liroadway side is of jilate glass and the roof is n;-incli ribbed glass. A large ]ilate glass jiartition dividi's the store from the greenhouse and allows a view frfini end to end of 120 feet. It is ]ilannrd to further beautify the con- servatory with rockwork, waterfalls, fountains and bird catres. FUNERAL DELIVERY VIA AIR.

Not often do flower growers make use of printers' ink to sell their blooms. Usually they are content with estab- lished connections with wholesale houses in the urban centers for their outlet. Only a few find occasion to break into print to sell their stock, most frequently in the trade press, and still fewer resort to direct mail methods. From such a class of nonadvertisers one would therefore not expect the same effectiveness, when one of them docs indulge in {tublicity, as from the other branches of tlic trade more experienced in that field. Nevertheless, Elmer Coon, head of the Rhinebeck Floral Co., at Ehinebeck, N. Y., has sent out a good ])iece of direct-mail advertising in search of orders for double violets for this season. It is in the form of a single large sheet, 17x18 inches, which folds conveniently to fit a No. 10 envelope. The statement of prices, the presenta- tion of sales arguments and the detach- able order blank in one corner all have been prepared to hit the nail on the head and get the recipient's order with tlie greatest ease. Clearness and sim- jilicity mark the entire copy. Mr. Coon has been growing violets at Rhinebeck for nearly twenty years. Tliat he has won a place for himself in that community is attested by the fact that he is president of the board of edu- cation and a director of the local sav- ings bank. Mr. Coon's advertising sense is evi- dent from the opening of his circulars, calling attention to Penn the Florist's featuring of violets. This reads: "Do you know that real fresh violets are your biggest builders of reputation? What does Penn of Boston feature throughout the year? Isn't it 'Strictly Fresh Violets'? Read below how you can do the .same thing." MUMS CHANGE COLOR. I noticed an article in The Review for October 28 under the heading "Ever Hear of This?" wliich complained that bronze mums were turning white. Last spring I ordered some Yellow King Hum- bert cannas for some customers and I hartr/^ MBITF^D with an idea and gifted witli genius for the management of business by modern methods, Paul K. Weiss, of Maywdod, 111., has become known far and near as the trade's great- est little secretary. Jok- ingly referred to by his friends as the "Syndi- cate," he includes in his secretarial duties record-keeping for four green- house corporations, of which he also is the directing head, a coal company and a big wholesale cut flower house. No doubt other florists are familiar with the law of diminishing return, mostly, i)('rli:i])s, with tlie iiiaiiifi'statinii rather tlian the theory; hut Mr. Weiss is probably the only grower who has thought out and apjilied a definite method of defeating the operation of this well known rule of economics. For the benefit of tho.se whose student days are in the distant i)ast, here is the law of diminishing return as stated liy Webster: "The observed fact or law that in any given stage of the arts an increase of labor or capital applied be- yond a certain point in the cultivation of land causes a less than proportionate increase in the produce raised from a given area." Watching the operation of this law in the greenhouse business, Mr. Weiss came to the conclusion that there comes a time at which it is more profitable to start u separate establish- ment than to add to the glass of one al- ready in operation. Vital Decisions. Just where that " certain i>oiiit ' ' is, must always be more or less a matter of opinion and it is a])- parent that Mr. Weiss revises li i s own ideas on the subject, as he is at present .-ulding an L. & H. house 70x400 to the first range in his string. Appar- entlv he now con- si d'ers L'00,000 to l.'rjO,000 feet about the right unit for operation to t h e best advantage. Tiic first range of glass Mr. Weiss built was only 10,- 0(10 feet. It was at Maywood, where he grew carnations and s w e e t jieas from Ktll to 191."?. In the latter year he sold this ]ihii'e and or- ganized the Weiss- Meyer Co., his asso- ciates being his father, F. 11. Weiss, .'ind Henry Meyer. As a start ."lOJOOO feet of glass was PAUL E.

But the Beauty already was ])ast its zenith and as more glass was added hybrid teas were tried, witli such good success that Beauty was drop]>ed in 1917 and the range, which will cover 150,000 square feet of gri)und when the new house is up, i,s jdaiited exclusively to Columbia and Premier. Mr. Weiss is secretary of the corporation and manager of its business. Mr. Weiss was one of the first to recognize that the approaching end of t-aul H.

David Lundin is the resident manager at the greenhouses, which were erected on a 20-ac're tract just north of Maywood, on the Soo Line railroaction of the two big detaciied steid-f ramers shown in the loregrouiid of the illustra- lioii on [lage L'ti. There .•ue only two varieties of roses grown in this range. They :ire Premier and Milady. By the time the Premier Rose Gardens weie in oiieration it had become easier to buy th.'in to build— cheaper and, of course, much quicker. So when the ma- jority interest in the Batavia Green house Co.. at Batavia, 111., was offered, .Mr. Weiss iind some of his associates took it uji, Mr, Weiss again becoming se<-retary .and general manager. Gott- lieb .Schoti, also a stockludder, remained ;is resident manager. The range, which consisted of a dozen good-sized green- houses in miscellanefius cro])s, was over- hauled and put in first-class condition, the crops being grailually worked over to the newer \arieties of ros(>s.

Basis of Action. .Mr. Weiss is a close student of the market and a care- f u 1 accountant. There is nothing hit- or miss about h i s iiK'thod. He is a willing listener as well as a keen ob- server, but it is on fiiTures that he bases li i s ai'tion. H e knows what it costs !o run his ]daces and to ]iroduce flowers of various grades :ind N'arieties. He limits his varieties because he knows those varieties pay him best and he grows good stock be- cause he knows it is the only kind on which a substantial business can bo built :iiid m;iintained. .Xs a stinli'iit of 26 The Florists^ Review NovBMBEn IS, 1920 the liiai'kct Air.

S. COMMITTEE ON QUARANTINE. Makes Preliminary Report. The executive committee appointed at the conference of re]>resentatives of hor- ticultural societies held June \~>, 11*20, at the American ^Museum of Natural History, New York, to consider the situ- ation in regard to Quarantine No. H7, has made its ))reliminary report in the form of a leallet entitled, "An Aiii)eal to Evcrv Friend of American Horticul- ture." After citing the various steps lead- ing u]) to the issuing of Quarantine No. 37, the report ]>uts the situation brielly as follows: ''Designed for the admir- able jiurjiose of protecting the United States against the ailmission of addi- tional insects and diseases injurious to plant life, the regulations prcimulgated from time to time under the quarantine have in efl'ect acted as an embargo, preventing the importation of any jilanis or seeerniits have lieeii arbitrarily ileiiieil or so loui; delayed that the opportunity has passed. It is .■ilso a fact that the rciiuiremeiit of a hond to follow the importations fc.r two years oper.ites as an effective embari;o to plant iiniiortatioii liy amateurs. The ortlcini aotinK for the Federal Ilortioiiltiiral Hoard determines (lie quality of any plant which in his wisdom it is proper to admit for propaca tion imrposes, and there seems to 1k' no lo^'ii'al hasis for liis determination. The report states that "few realize that the present quarantine was issued after the bureau of jtlant industry, February 26, 1918, had submitted to the Department of Agriculture a rejiort in which it was stated that in order to jiroteot the country against dangerous jdant pests and diseases the time seemed to be iit hand for the inauguration of a policy that would gradually result in the exclusion of all foreign nursery and tlorists ' stock." Sentiment of Conference. The report jioints out that, individual attemjits to correct the faults of the quarantine having failed, the coiU'ereiK'c referred to at the beginning of this article was called, at which forty-tivo societies were rcqiresented, including jiractically all those interested in hor- ticultural advancement. The commit- tee says: The Keiieral sentiment of the meetiiii; was In favor of an adecpiate .mil reasonalile cpiaraiitine, but stfint'ly opposed to iiieipiiialile regulations, and to the practical impo^iiion of an embargo ai-'ainsl plants from aliroad. The discussion showed great respect for the prcd)ity of the Kcileral llorlicultural Hoard, but it was b.dieved that tliis board did not aileipialely realizi' either the ultimate result of the to coiisiiler the situation ami to for- mulate a report and a detinite plan of action. America Needs Foreign Plants. The committee takes the stand that "it is important to prevent the impor- tation into his country of insects and diseases injurious to vegetation." It believes that "necessary .and reasonable regiil.'itions will lie obeyed and supported Batavia Greenhouse Co., Batavia, III. 28 The Florists' Review NOTEMBBR 18, 1920 by all patriotic citizens, but that if such regulations prove, in practice, to be drastic, unreasonable and not actually essential to the end in view, and defi- nitely damaging to the progress of hor- ticulture in America, they should be modified." After a comparison of horticulture' in America with its more advanced de- velopment in Europe and Asia, the re- port continues, "With the contemplated total embargo in force, it would never again be possible to secure for the United States any newly discovered, rare, interesting, valuable exotic fruit or ornamental plants, whether species or hybrids." Committee's Proposals. The proposals of the committee are contained in the following extract from the report: It should not be difBcult to show the necessity for modifying a quarantine wliich prevents tlie importiitlon in any (jnantity of plants with sand or soil on thoir roots, no matter how care- fully they have Ix-en lnsi)ected, fumlBated and treated abroad, and yet which takes no account of shiploads of soil brought in as ballast from any port, tropical or otherwise, regardless ot the fact that this soil is never inspected, fumi- gated or treated, and may contain insects and germs of diseases dangerous to human beings or plants. If, as we believe is the fact, a sane and efficient quarantine is deeirahle, the oflicials of the government owe the people a whole duty and not a half duty. A quarantine defined hy carefully studied law and not by incidental official regulations established under a broad law, protecting not merely through the exclusion of incidental plants but through the exclusion or treatment of other disease and insect-bearing media, would. If properly proposed, be supported by the people. If the necessity is shown, we believe that the Federal Horticultural Board, or some other executive agency, will be provided ■with funds to establish quarantine stations at enough ports of entry adequately to protect the nation and to serve at the same time the proper desires and convenience of its citizens. It is our confident t)elief that well equipped and carefully administered quarantine stations should be established at a certain number of ports of entry, such, for example, as San Francisco, Seattle, New York. New Orleans and Roston. Unless some such action is taken, the extension of the present system of exclusion by regulation under a blanket law will undoubtedly result In the total embargo against further horticultural progress in the t'nited States which the report of the biirenu of plant industry alK)ve referred to seems to have had in mind. Time has been lost and animosities engendered. and valuable imported plants and seeds have been destroyed since the quarantine became ef- fective, because no well prepared and ndecpiate presentation of the facts has been made to the officials of the Pepartment of Agriculture, and it is no reflection on those offlclMls to jtropose for them assistance in the gaining of inf<*ma- tlon. which must be gathered slowly, carefully, and at different times and places, to show the facts and the effects concerning this plant- quarantine which Is so dangerously near to plant- exclusion. It is. therefore, the proposal of this commit tee to send a capable Investigator, furnished with all requisite entomological, pathological and other expert assistance, wherever It may be necessary to gain information. Interview iii- •llvlduals. compare notes and obt.ain statements and affidavits, upon which the facts can be adequately presented to the federal authorities at Washington. It Is the purpose of this committee, when such Information has been gathered and wlien the law under which quarantine regulations have been promulgated has been carefully studied In connection with the situation, to ari-angf for such argument and presentation, in the twlirf that there should result a modiflcntion in some respects, and an extension in others, of the quarantine regulations, tending to phice horticul- ture once again on a firm footing with relntiim to the rest of the known world, and to make it possible for any citizen of the I'nited States, willing to provide the necessary snfegu.irils, to import such plants as he may reasonably re- quire. To accomplish tlio objocts of the onm- mittoe, thp Massachusptts Horticultural Society, tho Horticultural Society of New York and the Pennsylvania Hor- ticultural Society have made substantial subscriptions, believing that those in- terested will provide the considerable additional amount required. "It is confidently believed," says the report, "that those who are opposed to a Chinese wall plant policy for America, who think that we are entitled to other plants which may be discovered any- where as valuable to us as have been the apple, the lilac, the potato and count- less other familiar but exotic plants in use today, will aid the work of this committee in contributions and in ef- fort."

The Paris fall flower show, which was held in the Jardin d'Acclimatation, a large public greenhouse in the Bois de Boulogne, was primarily a chrysan- themum show, but was also advertised as a horticultural show, including fruits, vegetables and trees. The show, held from October 27 to November 5, was an event of the social season. I was somewhat disappointed in the show, from a florists' point of view, especially because I believed the ex- hibitions would be equal to the retail florists' show rooms. The retail florist simply was not in it; it was a growers' show from beginning to end. The rib- bon man, the basket man, the supply man, seemed not to exist. Exhibits in Ground. The flower show proper was laid out as any garden might be, with a little winding stream of water playing through the center of the exhibition. Probably the reason for my disappointment was beeause most of the flowers were placed ill the ground, and seeing specimen mums in such a way made me overlook their real beauty. Mums, roses, carnations and plants all were practically planted in the earth. For chrysanthemums, Mrs. Maurice Martin, of Champigny sur Marne, won the first grand prize of honor. Jules Ragot won a gold medal for his mums, and Albert Larquet, a private gardener, also won a gold iiUMlal for uuims. Le- veque & Rous, large disjiL-iyers of mums, roses and carnations, won a gold medal. Their sport carnations seemed fine. Mr. Debaux, of Lyons, displayed sev- eral varieties of American carnations. Arthur Billard won a gold medal for a superb collection of begonias, having over thirty-six varieties. Aubcrt-Maille, of Tours, won the gold medal for a fine collection of cyclamens. Millet & Sons won prizes for a fine showing of single dahlias. These seemed to be unusually fine and in great va- riety. New French Mums. Vilmorin-Andricux & Co., of Paris, had the largest display of mums, cover- ing more ground than any other exhibi- tor. They, alone, shewed the new mums of the season. The best one was Riquet a la Houffe, a lavender. Others were Peau d'Ane and Chat Botte, two light pinks; Petit Poucet and Chaperon Rouge, both bronzes, and Clendrillon, a nice white. Their feature display was a pyramid arrangement of 300 or 400 mums in one tub and the same in pom- pons. Tomer Only American. The best looking mums in the show were Rigby, a big yellow, and Mrs. Gilbert Drabble, a big white. Both of these resemble our William Turner, which, by the way, was the only known American mum displayed. The Afri- caine, a big bronze, was also well dis- played. Of the pompons. Orchard Tints, a yellow flower, seemed to be the best. I must say a few words on the fruits displayed, for they were a feature. Fruit growing is one of the things a French- -« man does well. Pears, some weighing over two and one-half pounds, sell at 900 francs ($60) per hundred and 100 bunches of grapes sell at 750 francs. This gives some conception of what fruit is worth when well grown. There were displays of home-canned or bottled fruits and vegetables, which interested the housewife. Probably the most interesting of the side shows was an exhibition of several hundred paintings in oil and water color of fruit and flower scenes. These were for sale, and attracted much attention among the flower and the picture lovers. Salesmen Outside. Outside of the exhibition house was a rendezvous for the side-line men. Garden pottery, statuary, summer houses, furniture and greenhouse mate- rial were exhibited. As there was no night session, about 5 o'clock the visitors were ready to go home, and as I, a foreigner, look back at the scene when thousands of people were making their exhibit, I wonder whether I am now as disappointed as I first was, because, after all, it is so new, so diiTerent from what we have in America.

The iiiitioiia! p:ipital clirysanthcnium .sliovv was stayed Noveinher 10 to 1-1 by the florists of Wasliington, under tlie auspices of tlie Chrysantheiiiuiii Society of America, at tlie Old Masonie Temple. It coutaiiietl as line a collection of flow- ers as has been seen iu the national capital. Tliough it compared favorably with flower shows staged in the jiast in other parts of the country, it was not on so large a scale. A feature of the show was a large anteroom which was decorated as an Italian garden, with a rustic bridge over an artiflcial pond and artificial jtond lilies. "Say It with Flowers," in letters made of small, yellow pom- I)ons, was displayed on a background of southern sheet moss. An electric foun- tain and a Ked Cross tent complet(>d the garden. Music was furnished during the afternoon and evening sessions of the show, and Friday night, November 12, the attendance reached its height when a ball was given. The show was opened November 10, the guest of honor being Secretary of Agriculture Meredith, who nuide a brief address, largely a resume of the work of the bureau of plant industry iu coopera- tion with floiists. The commissioners of the District of Columbia and other local oflicials were also guests. Decorative Displays. There were seven decorative exhibits, wiiich were as follows: Z. D. Hlacki- stone, a bridal .aisle of white chrysan- themums and a shower boucpiet of pcmipons and Sweetheart roses; Jose]>li Mandu Co., West Orange, N. .1., booth decorated with cypripediums; George C Shaffer, Washington, dinner table of orchids and olirysantliemuins; Mrs. Geo.

Dreer, Inc., I'hiladelphia, Pa., booth depornted with foliage plants; Dujiont Flow(^r Shop, Washington, mantel and a jiicture and frame made of yellow chrysanthemums, violets and other flowers. A chrysanthemum, a huge yellow bloom, was named for ^Irs. Warren (J. Harding; another, a white, was named for Presidentelect Harding; one for Mrs. Calvin Coolidge, and a bronze for Vice-President-elect Coolidge. Winners of Exhibits.

The meeting is scheduled for early in November, llt^l, although the exact date is to be tixed later. President's Address. Thomas W. Head, who was unable to be jiresent, sent his jiresident i;il suMress to be read at the meeting. In it lie said: "I exceedingly regret my inaVdlity to be with you at this convention, as I had lodked fdrward with a great deal of in- terest to this meeting .and had expected to take an .active interest in the matters that are to cimie ii]i. but li.i\ iiiL: .just recently (dianged my jiositicii, I tiiid it iinjiossible for me to get aw;i\. "Tlie exhiliits that I li:i\e se..n this fall ha\(' not been ii|i In tlidse of jire- war times. This is due to the fact that ox]ierienced laluir has been hard tn get and that many estates are still retrench- ing and have closed the greenhouses for tlie winter. The coal situation has liad a little to do with it also; yet the imblic could bo seen clamoring to get in to see those fine lIoW(>rs, showing they were still as fond of them as ever. The scarcity of large blooms was noticeable. Visitors seemed to favor the niodium- sized llowers ;is being much better to arrange for efl'ect in their homes. But as long as wc are suiijilied with such splendid novelties as C. H. Tottv, T. W. I'ockett, K. 1). Smith and W. Wells have been giving us we may expect them to show these large llowers to let us see what perfection they have arrived at by their hard and zealous work in hybridizing. Trying Times. •'This year has been a trying one for the proper develoimient of the llowers, as tlie warm fall seemed to take the lit'e out df them and made them useless tur showing. It is a ]deasure to see so many of the recent introductions doing so w(dl with us, giving the introducer great eneduragemeiit in his wiirk and also inciting new blood to the work, as there is a great lield ojieu in this line. Our worthy s(>eretary, C. W. Johnson, has been wurking for several vears along NOTICE To those who want things printed in I®®: l^m^ Because the Thanksgiving holiday falls on Thursday, the day the paper usually is mailed, it will be neces- sary to go to press ONE DAY EARLY with the issue of November 25. DONT BE LATE. these lines ;ind his hard work has cer- tainly been rewarded with excellent novelties that he has originated. ''There is still a growing demand for hardy flowering chrysanthemums, and this year has been favorable to test some of them out, but as yet the varieties to ( hoose from are not plentiful. I think there is a great field open here, as so many of these flowers can t)e used in our borders for fall effect. I notice that many of the landscape architects are giving these fluwirs more attention anil I myself have received numerous letters this year asking for a list of the really h.ardy mums t'or certain sections. So I lidjie we shall lie able to imjirove on t hes(. as t ime goes by. '•It is to be regretted that the flowers h.ave not been seen at the shows as be- t'ure the war, but without the interest ef tlie jiedjile who can alfuril to grow thesi^ tine llowers, lidw can we expect to keep the others iiit eiesteil or bring new en- thusiasts into the field? This all helps to improve the gardeners' ]iosition by showing the public that it takes a man of exjierience and a man who loves his ]ir(ifession to produce excellent flowers. So it is u]i to us, one and all, to encour- ;ige these jiublic exhibitions and adver- tise ourselves ;ts well as our products, which we have spent so many years to learn to jiroduce, and 'Say It with Flowers' to the world." Secretary's Report. Secretary C. W. .lohnson presented his report, which was as follows: ''The eighteenth annual meeting was held in conjunction with the annual fair of the American Institute of the City of New York at the Kngineering build- ing. New York. There was ;i creditable showing of fine blooms exhibited by the members of the society, consisting prin- cipally of the standard exhibition and commercial varieties, but few seedlings or new varieties. The lack of new seedlings at our exhibitions brings to the mind of ex])erieiice(l exhibitors , the difference between the shows of today and those of former years, when the gretitest interest was centered on the seedlings and novelties, and now that we can not depend on foreign importa- tions to create this interest, it is u challenge to the members of the C. S. A. to demonstrate their ability along the lines of jiroducing new varieties. 'There was .a strong showing of the pompon .and single varieties. whi(di attracted the attention of the visitors, showing how popular these varieties are with the general ])ublic. The secretary was in attendance at the show .and a re])ort of the proceedings has been printed and mailed to all members of the society. ''Your secretary has noticed most- ]i!irticnlarly during the last year the falling oft" in the suiiport the society is i-eceiving from the private gardeners. This may be duo to the conditions as they exist on jirivate places fcdlowing the war, but as the C. S. A. has drawn its strongest support from the ranks of the gardeners, we can ill afford to lose it. Commercial Plantings Larger. "The planting of chrysanthemums for commercial cut flower purposes is larger than over this year, os[iecially the pom- ]ion varieties, but up to the present time the demand has kept pace with the sup- ]ily throughout a greater part of the country. In the eastern states the un- usually fine weather for this time of year has advanced the flowering ])erio(l of most of the varieties so that the sea- son will be shortened considerably; otherwise the chrysanthemum grower has little to complain of. "()^ving to the increased cost of print- ing, evciything connected with the secretary's office along the lines of sta- tionery has been more expensive, r^xamining the committee's scoring sheets and the annual rejiort cost more than in preceiling years, but all of those items have been .attended to as hereto- fore. The examining committees have continued to be efficient in their work in the .judging of the new varieties sub- mitted to them. The tr.ade jiapers, as heretofore, generously ]iul)lished all no- tices sent to them from time to time during the year, for which we owe them a vote of thanks. ''"N'oiir secretary wishes to acknowl- edge the kindness of Elmer D. Smith in furnishing him with a com]ilete list of varieties disseminated in 1910, which was !i groat help in getting u;' the annual report. " Treasurer's Report. Following is the report of Charles IT.

Bull, of Glen BUyn, 111., previous installments of which appeared in the October 7 and 21 and November 4 issues of The Review.] A great deal of actual money is lost in growing unsuitable varieties of sweet peas. The kinds that sell in quantity have clear, attractive colors. For mid- winter use I find the number of varieties limited to a bare half-dozen. On looking over commission houses, quantities of uncertain colors can frequently be seen that sell only in limited numbers, par- ticularly in midwinter. With the begin- ning of spring, these novelty colors are in better demand, though even then the buyers are discriminating. It is in selecting colors for midwinter that the grower must be conservative, for the lack of abundant sunshine makes most of the novelty colors entirely worthless at that time. I shall treat varieties in the order of their value, as I have found them. Pink and White Leads. What is known as Pink and. White, or Blanche Ferry Pink, heads the list. With its rose-colored standard and white wings, it presents a most delight- ful combination of colors, resembling the old Blanche Ferry. The difference between this old favorite of long ago and a well grown winter-blooming Pink and White, as it is known for want of a better name, illustrates what a quar- ter-century of plant breeding has ac- complished for sweet peas. It is safe to say that one-third of all the winter peas grown are of the one variety. Pink and White. It holds its color well in midwinter, but in the hot days of spring the colors are inclined to run together. Most growers have found the variety Columbia the most profitable in this color. It represents a type between the early and late, producing a heavier growth than the early variety, conse- quently a larger number of flowers. Because of this heavier growth, it is several weeks later in getting into crop. As late as several seasons ago, most strains of Pink and White produced an unprofitably large number of poor col- ors, but the painstaking work of seed growers has put most strains in excel- lent shape. Pink Colors Second. The pink colors, represented by Eose Queen, easily hold second place and among Chicago growers this representa- tive variety continues to rank high, although it was among the first of the winter-blooming Spencers to appear. It is a large flower with a beautiful, soft color during the winter months, al- though, in common with all varieties, too much dark weather will affect the color. Zvolanek's Eose is a larger flower and of a darker color than Rose Queen, but commission men are responsible for the statement that when buyers have their choice the soft color of Eose Queen gives it the preference. We place this variety in our novelty list. Wliltes and Lavenders. White is probably next in order and in this class we have Snowstorm crowd- ing Snowflake for first place. It is fully as large as the latter, with a better form. Snowflake produces a heavy, soft growth that affects the keeping quality of the flowers, particularly during the spring months. It might be of interest to growers who have experienced trouble in ger- minating the white-seeded varieties to know that seed should be sown in a medium that will retain moisture until they have germinated. Watering the seed is certain to start decay; the outer coating of the seed is thin and they swell promptly, but why they are so susceptible to excessive moisture we do not know. Perhaps some reader of The Review can tell us. There are a number of fine lavenders to select from. Our choice, among standard kinds, is Princess. It has a clear, dark color and is extra early in getting into flower. Asta Ohn, a lighter shade, is a suf- fused rose. A desirable characteristic is its restricted growth, only about one- third the usual head room being neces- sary. We have been fortunate in making an advance trial of the new light lavender. Harmony. This is the most attractive one in this class and has an extra strong growth. Bluebird Exclusive. Next in order, I should say, are the blues, and in this color Bluebird has the field to itself. It is a strong, easy grower and throughout the middle west the color is in active demand. The foregoing list represents the best of the midwinter kinds, which are started in August. Some of them are not so desirable for late planting as those in the novelty class. With the coming of warm spring weather the bi- colors of the Blanche Ferry type run together. Rose Queen loses both size and color and Bluebird loses its even blue and becomes darker. The lavenders and whites are equally desirable for either season. The Novelty Colors. The novelty colors, which are planted later and grown cool during midwinter and throughout the spring months, pro- vide a riot of colors and become an im- portant item in the cut flower market. True Blue is what its name implies. This color becomes more attractive as the weather warms up. Wedgwood is a fine-flowering, even blue, but not so large as True Blue and a shade lighter. Heatherbell is an attractive, rosy lavender. Of the rosy purple shades I believe Glorious is the best. Aviator is a rich scarlet, but this is a color that can be easily oversupplied. Fordhook Eose is an attractive rosy carmine that sells well. Ynes Gilbert is a glowing, orange scar- let. I was privileged to try out Glitters during the last season and found it the 'most glowing orange I have ever seen. It has a telling color, but, like all in this class, it requires full spring tempera- tures in order to attain full develop- ment. Zvolanek's Rose I prefer to place in the novelty class, because it does not de- velop its great size under midwinter conditions. Hercules is a fine, clear color for any season, but its even pink color seems to develop particularly well during early spring. Yarrawa is still one of the best of the novelty colors. This list can be greatly extended, but every variety I have dis- cussed will be found safe and distinct. Odd Colors Useful. Among people of correct taste there is a demand for odd colors, to be used in carrying out color schemes, and it is the business of growers to keep up the supply. We frequently meet people who are amazed at the existence of such colors as are represented by Nubian, Belgian Hero or Serbian Prince. There are always people who are looking for something original or different and, while these novelty colors are not large sellers, they attract attention. Too many new kinds are offered in this class. Most of them merely add to the long list. For midwinter only strong, clear colors can be used. However, we must not forget that all our money-making standard kinds were at one time in the novelty list. In order to get a Rose Queen or a Snowflake, we should be glad to test a few novelties that may prove to be failures. SPIDERS IN GREENHOUSES. What can we do to exterminate a pest which is in the dark corners of our greenhouses and around the premises? It appears to be a spider, although it jumps like a grasshopper and has long legs. It is brown in color and is never to be found with other members of the spider family. We have not noticed any particular damage from them, ex- cept that they eat at vegetables. We have tried lime to exterminate them, with no effect. What would you ad- vise us to do! K. & S. — Wis. Lime would be of no value in clear- ing out such pests as you describe. Try Hammond's Slug Shot, sprinkling it about their habitats. This remedy has proved successful in many similar cases. Should Slug Shot fail, I should recom- mend a fumigation with hydrocyanic acid gas. This remedy should be care- fully used, but it is usually reliable for cleaning out all forms of insect life. In cool weather damage to plant life, as a result, is reduced to a minimum. C. W. Pittsburgh, Pa. — The A. & S. Wilson Co. has received a contract for a large greenhouse to be built for Emil Winter.

I also notice that some of the lower leaves get brown or black later. A few of the leaves have spots with ;i kind of web on them. Kindly let me know what this is, for this is the first time I have grown carnations. A. L.— Mo. Those brown spots with the powdery substance are the common carnation rust. Pick off what you can and spray tlioroughly with Bordeaux mixture. Kee]) the plants dry overhead as mucli as is practical. Water carefully, though not sparingly, at the roots. Give abun- dant ventilation on all favorable occa- sions. l*aint one of the heating pipes in each house with lime and sulj)hur in «>(jual parts, mixed with water. Keeping a dry, buoyant atmosphere will help the ])lats to outgrow the disease. The light spots in the leaves are caused by bacteriosis. Most varieties of carna- tions are, in time, attacked by this dis ease and sooner or later succumb to its ravages. There has been much differ- ence of opinion as to just what causes this disease, the most commonly ac- cepted theory being that it is caused by the punctures of insects and poisons entering at these punctures. The En- chantress varieties have been in culti- vation an unusually long period and although they have shown the effects of this disease in increasing quantity, they are still doing well, showing a re- markable degree of vitality. Careful culture will assist greatly in reducing the ravages of this disease, as is proved by the varied amount of this disease on different places. It might be said that anything that will promote a soft growth will aggravate the disease, while culture which produces well matured leaf growth will assist the plant in resisting the disease. That means that you should water carefully, allowing the soil to dry out fairly well before each water- ing. Avoid fertilizers which are ex- cessive in nitrogen. Give abundant ventilation on favorable opportunities and carry an even temperature. Later on, when taking cuttings for propaga- tion, avoid those plants showing these light spots as far as possible. Keep the young plants growing along steadily in a cool, light position, which will help to build up the vitalitv of your stock. A. F. J. B. THRIPS SPOIL BUDS. I am sending you a few carnations. What is the cause of their opening in the manner shown, and how can I prevent it? A. E.— Pa. have been lax in your spraying or fumigating. You should spray or fumi- gate regularly once each week, even though you may not see any indication of thrips or aphis. It is far easier to keep them away than to get rid of them after they have a foothold. Now that you have them, apply the remedy two or three times weekly until you have cleaned them out. Do not increase the strength of the doses, but repeat the applications oftener. A. F. J. B. PEST IS SOW BUG. There is something wrong with our carnations. The leaves are turning brown and seem to dry up and are full of holes. I found some small worms, like angleworms, in one of the dead plants. We found them in the soil around the plants, too. What is the best and quickest wav to get rid of them? 'n. W. B.— la. Your carnation blooms are being in- jured by thrips. These tiny insects puncture the tissue of the petals while they are still in the bud, causing these white spots, which are really dead tissue. Usually these spots are brown on the bloom of light shades of color and white iu the dark-colored varieties. The pres- ence of these insects jjroves that you Your main trouble is probably with sow bugs. Drop a pinch of Slug Shot here and there on the edgeboards of your benches. If you have none on hand, take granulated sugar and mix enough Paris green with it to make it deadly and drop it along the edgeboard. It will require considerable persistence to get rid of this pest.

What is the cause? We have tried Grape Dust. E. & S.— Mich. The name of the other plant is strcji tocarpus, or cape primrose. M. P. Outdoor geranium cuttings do not, as a rule, root as readily as those from indoor-grown stock. The fall growth is apt to be soft and, in the absence of bottom heat, they damp off. Indoor- grown cuttings have the advantage of being better matured and can be left on the plants until firing has commenced and bottom heat has been provided. A. F. J. B. GERANIUM DRYDEN. I am sending a geranium leaf and flowers. Two years ago I discovered just one plant of it. It is a quite slow grower, but a good one. Can you tell me the name of it? C. E. S. — O. The flower of the geranium arrived badly crushed, making it difiBcult to tell its name, but I believe it to be the variety Dryden. M. P. VARIEGATED GERANIUM. We are sending you two plants. Would you kindly tell us their names? One is a geranium we have grown for sev- eral years. Our first plant was given us under the name of the Kansas ger- anium. It has proved a good, strong grower, with bloom much like the General Grant. The leaves are usually mottled with white and are sometimes entirely white. It is a good seller, as the foliage is handsome. E. W.— Kan. The geranium is unknown to me. I have seen the same variegation among the standard varieties, but do not con- sider it of any great value. GERANIUM CUTTINGS ROTTING. Please tell me why my geranium cut tings rot and turn black in the sand boxes. I am having a great deal of trouble in that way. I have to throw out whole boxes. S. L. J. — 111. The trouble is due to weather con ditions and to the fact that the cuttings were too soft when taken. The trouble generally happens to cuttings taken from the field in August and early Sep- tember. Those taken later in September or early in October are harder and do not suffer so badly. Care in watering is desirable in order not to get the sand too wet. Water only to prevent the cuttings from wilting. M.

Good thing for a fellow to think about and even to recite aloud if he can back it up with results. "Keeping a little in front of the next" is more than beating your com- petitors in business. Simply to take busi- ness away from your neighbors by price cutting is destructive, but effort to keep ahead of them in the creation of new ideas in flower arrangement, display and selling tends to speed up and improve your service and that of all those in the trade who see your progress. tiir '■ COAL MEN NOTE IMPROVEMENT. Continued improvement in the soft coal situation was noted in a review of the industry issued at the beginning of this week by the National Coal Asso- ciation, in terms that give comfort for those growers seeking further fuel sup- plies. The association said it had no reports of any "immediate shortage" from any section of the country. "Great manufacturing plants in^dire need of soft coal early in the fall now have an ample supply on hand," the review asserted. "Public utilities everywhere have had their immediate wants filled, while many of them have been -able to provide stocks for the winter." Decreased prices have resulted as a natural consequence of the improved situation, the review declared, adding that in many places the decline had been "from twenty-five to fifty per cent below prices which prevailed up to six weeks ago." The government geological survey's weekly report estimated bituminous pro- duction during the week ending No- vember 6 to have been only 11,500,000 tons, due largely to loss of time on election day and on religious holidays in the coal fields. HAVE YOU HEARD OF IT? "This is a new one to us," writes W. E. Kemblc, from Oskaloosa, la. "We wonder if you have ever heard of it before, or if other florists know of any- thing like it and what they think about it. We have our own opinion, but should like to know what others think." Being in the same situation and of the same mind as Mr. Kemble, The Review prints the clipping from an Oska- loosa paper which explains the novelty that caused his wonderings: Leo and Art Baldauf, nephews of the late Aaron Bosenhlatt, also W. S. Oberfelder, a rela- tive of the family, have instituted a Memorial Flower Fund in Oskaloosa by a money contri- bution to the local Social Service League and by their suBgestions the Social Service Board has established "The Memorial Flower Fund" and is following up the ideas of older organiza- tions in the manner of handling this fund. In the case of the deatli of a friend you ma.v give this lasting tribute by notifying the Social Service League that you wish to contribute a definite amount to the Memorial Flower Fund in memory of .your friend. The secretary then In- forms the immediate family that in memory of the departed one a contribution to the Memorial Flower Fund has been made by the above In- dividual and that the name of the loved one thus remembered will be included in the Memorial Flower Fund list in tlie next report of the Social Service League. This fund, of course, is used for the relief of the ill and the poor, and tiie sentiment conve.ved in furnisliing flowers for such occasions is carried out in the desirable manner descril)ed above. In the near future the Social Service League win have the necessary printed blanks, includ- ing letter that will be sent by secretary to the immediate family, and will be very glad to have these on display for information and approval. POINTING A MORAL. Anyone can print a newspaper — as long as his money holds out — but it is quite another matter to get that news- paper read. One can even get people to subscribe to a publication without reading it — you can lead a horse to water, but you mav not make him drink. That is the" test: I consider every issue of The Review worth the subscription price for a year and never get too busy to read it every week. — Darwin Z. Cur- tiss, dealer in Bulbs, Plants, Seeds, Ypsllanti, Mich., November 8, 1920. The advertising manager of the paper that is read has the softest snap on earth — results bring advertising faster than anything else ever will: Continue the same Display ad to Deceml)er; it is doing good work. — M.

Please discontinue my Classified ad and hold balance to my credit till some future time; sold out. — Mumma's Greenhouses, Leesburg 0., No- vember 4, 1920. If you hear a man complain of the cost of advertising you can be pretty certain he spends a good bit of money elsewhere than in The Review. - •t < ^^^r^r^ »«Tw« NOVBMBER 18, 1920 The Florists' Review 35 NEW YOBK. The Market. A slight improvement was noticeable in the cut flower market last week, sup- ply and demand coming more nearly to- gether by the close of the week. This condition was more apparent Saturday, November 13, when arrivals cleaned up better than for many days. Violets on that day were interesting subjects, ow- ing to an expected demand incident to the Yale-Princeton football game, which always brings a call for these flowers. The supply was not large; consequently the business was not heavy, and the range of prices was on the quite satis- factory basis of $1.50 to $2 per hun- dred. Had it not been for the warm weather experienced of late, which shortened the picking, such prices would hardly have been possible. Chrysanthemums continue to domi- nate the market. The late varieties are pretty nearly all in and, with the mid- seasons not yet out, arrivals are heavy and accumulations present clearance difficulties. A killing frost has de- stroyed all outside flowers, and this con- dition will favor the movement of chrys- anthemums from now on; in fact, Mon- day, November 15, the demand for these flowers was stimulated and $9 per dozen was obtainable for the best of the com- mercial varieties, althougli plenty of flowers good in quality were to be had for much less. Singles and pompons are also stronger in price, due to lighter shipments. Koses are in good supply and meet a somewhat better demand at stronger prices. American Beauty is not par- ticularly plentiful and moves within a price range of $50 to $75 per hundred for the best of the special grades. Hybrid teas are in about normal supply for the season, and prices are settling to something like a normal range on account of quality, which is good. The price range Monday was about $2 to $20 per hundred, with one or two varieties exceeding the top mark, Francis Scott Key coming into the American Beauty class. There is little change in the carnation situation, except as to quality, which has improved a trifle and is likely to im- prove from now on. Much short- stemmed stock is arriving, a condition due, no doubt^ to a generally late bench- ing necessitated by labor shortage. Cattleyas are in fairly good supply and are meeting with a better demand, their movement being within a range of $75 to $150 per hundred, the latter price including hybrids. Cypripediums con- tinue to arrive in limited quantity. The supply of Easter lilies is short and prices have moved up, with a de- mand that just about takes care of ar- rivals. Lily of the valley is in only moderate supply. White bouvardia sells fairly well at 25 to 50 cents per bunch. The supply of Paper White narcissi is increasing and moves slowly at 50 cents per bunch. Arrivals of sweet peas are larger and are moved freely. The supply of miscellaneous flowers is lighter and includes mainly snapdragons, calendulas, pansies and callas. Various Notes. Monday, November 15, saw the open- ing of the social season, which this year is full of promise for the florists. The horse show opened in the morning, for a week's run, and a large list of func- tions in connection with it, including many luncheons and dinners, furnishes a good prospect for business during the week. The interior of the huge Madison Square Garden, where the show is held, has been transformed into a replica of an English village on a fete day, the boxes decorated with plants and flowers so as to harmonize with the general decorative design. H. H. Burns had the contract for the decorations. The open- ing of the opera season at the Metro- politan Opera House took place Monday evening, November 15. A 'number of balls are to take place within the next two weeks, the largest of which will be the Midshipmen's ball, to be held at the Hotel Commodore, following the Army- Navy football game, Saturday evening, November 27, at which will be present members of both houses of Congress, the diplomatic corps, the cabinet, and officers of the army and navy. The much heralded "Venetian ball" is to take place at the Ritz-Carleton Novem- ber 23.

A killing frost during the night of Friday, November 12, ended the cut of outdoor flowers, which this year was prolonged to a remarkable extent. On the morning of that day cannas, dahlias and other tender flowers were in evi- dence in the gardens of suburban New York, nearly a month after the time when killing frost is expected in this latitude.

Whether or not the local publicity campaign now in course of promotion is being anticipated by the New York newspapers is hard to say, but it is sig- nificant that the big New York Times, which is not noted for its interest in matters concerning the florists' indus- try, devoted almost a column of space in its issue of Sunday, November 14, on the page facing the editorial page, to an interview with Max Schling, in which he put over a -lot of facts in re- gard to a proper and wider use of flow- ers and floral decorations. In the same issue Js reported an interview with Oscar Meyer, in charge of the flower shop at the Hotel Pennsylvania, at which was discussed the plant embargo under Quarantine 37, particularly aa re- gards the orchid situation. There was a well-attended meeting of retail florists, called by the Eetail Flo- rists' Association, through Vice-Presi- dent E. J. Hession, at the Hotel Penn- sylvania, Wednesday evening, Novem- ber 10. The matter of the proposed local publicity campaign was discussed at considerable length, and it was unani- mously decided to meet again on Mon- CHICAGO. The Market. The business is gaining momentum with each passing week. While the city trade is uneven, being marked by frequent dull days among the busy ones, shipping trade is increasing steadily and the volume of sales in the market again generally exceeds the records of last year. It is apparent that chrysan- themums are approaching the end of their season earlier than in any recent year, not only in Chicago, but through- out the entire section which draws its supplies of out flowers from this market. As the mums are cut out, the demand for roses and carnations is on the in- crease. The wholesalers note that the demand is much more active in certain sections than in others, or perhaps it would be more exact to say that the demand is not so strong in certain cities as it is generally throughout the middle west. The manufacturing centers seem to be less active than the agricultural centers. But if city business were rela- tively as strong as shipping demand it would be to the advantage of this mar- ket. There are not half as many chrysan- themums on the market as was the case a year ago this week and the supply of pompons is even smaller. In a general way it may be said that the big mums are unusually good and everyone notes that the fanciest stock is in best de- mand. Pompons are selling at much better prices than last year, more be- cause of the difference in supply than because of greater demand. Rose crops are not heavy. Most of the growers are looking forward to Christ- mas and they are not cutting much just now. The result has been some im- provement in the value of practically all grades and varieties.

A number of advance orders have been booked, and they nearly all call for the medium grades of stock. The retailers say the Thanksgiving demand is principally for the purchaser's home use and that in the majority of cases moderate sums only will be spent. The big, fancy late chrysanthemums, like Chadwick and Helen Frick, however, are an exception. For these the buyers seem willing to pay higher prices than ever before. ' 'Better Than a Flower Show. ' ' ' * Say It with Flowers ' ' week occurred on the dates once used for the annual flower show in Chicago. "As a business booster for the trade 'Say It with Flow- ers' week was far better than anj' flower show wc ever held in Chicago," said C. J. Michclsen. "No event in the his- tory of the trade here ever caused so much talk of flowers among the public, no matter how much the trade spent, and the cost of this demonstration was less than the aggregate sum the trade spent on each flower show in the old days. Besides, this time the expense was more equally divided; a larger number con- tributed, individual contributions were smaller and in exact proportion to the benefits derived; being indirect, many contributors did not realize tliat they had paid ])art of the cost of the pub- licity." Tlio bills were paid out of the percentage collections of the Allied Florists' Association and the total ex- penditure was only about $5,.'500. Expe- rienced publicity men, noting the results, thought the cost must have been several times as much. "The slogan sure is a winner," said Mr. Michelsen; "it sticks in jieople's minds and has become a part of the slang of the day." November 12 the Daily News used the slogan as the title of its front-page car- toon. Money won't buy front-page advertising in that paper. Over 40n,n00 copies printed. Reaches four-fifths of the liomes in Chicago. "Say It with Flowers" Dance. The social prestige of the Chicago Florists' Club was raised another notch by the "Say It with Flowers" dance at the Hotel Randolph Friday evening, November 12. Nearly 250 florists and friends, according to President "Waters' count, were present to dance, or play cards, or enjoy a social chat with their fellows, crowding the capacity of the Colonial ballroom to its utmost. So successful an event had not before been staged in the club's history, according to Secretary Lautenschlager, who, with the other officers of the club, was active in seeing that everyone had a good time. They are the more pleased because the affair was all arranged in a week's time, being first suggested at the club meeting November 7. The treasury of the club, as well as its reputation as a promoter of enjoyable entertainments, benefited by the event. The ballroom was profusely decorated, quite in keeping with the title of the dance. A bank of palms from Witt- bold 's screened the orchestra. Strings of smilax were festooned across the ceil- ing and baskets of chrysanthemums made bright spots in the setting. On the tables were vases of roses, contrib- uted for the occasion by several of the wholesale houses. The music was excel- lent, and the pleasure of the partici- pants in the entertainment was evi- ROSES CARNATIONS CHRYSANTHEMUMS POMPONS SWEET PEAS PERNS O ^C^ GALAX ASPARAGUS BOXWOOD ?^^^ Hear Ye !

He is there this week to attend the meeting of the Ten- nessee State Florists' Association.

Andrew Benson has returned from his trip east, more than ever satisfied to re- sume rose growing here. Edward Goldstein will celebrate his thirty-fourth birthday anniversary No- vember 19. Checking up the records, P. C. Schupp, of the J. A. Budlong Co., says he finds prices now are running about twenty- five per cent below the values of the same goods last year. From this he deduces that the florists' business is in about the same condition, as far as prices go, as other industries. He thinks the difference is due to increased production rather than a decrease in the demand, because he finds his own sales running to a little higher total, day by day, than they did a year ago, which indicates handling considerably more stock. A. Miller was at the Twin Cities last week on a hunting expedition — with a gun, not an order-book. He is at Mem- phis this week, having a place on the program of the Tennessee State Florists' Association. Most of the local growers now use Illinois coal, but Wietor Bros, have stuck to Pocahontas, having found that while it costs more, it still is cheapest in the long run. In the good old days of peace and plenty mine run Pocahontas cost 90 cents a ton at the mines and $3 per ton on track at Eogers Park. Today it costs $4.90 at the mines and $8.55 at Rogers Park. When one considers that Wietor Bros, need 5,000 tons for an average winter, the magnitude of the large growers' fuel problem can be ap- preciated.

Pansics arc exceptionally fine and move at better prices than violets. For sweet peas there is a good demand at higher figures than a week ago. Calendulas go somewhat sluggishly, as do bachelor's buttons. Pink snapdragons sell well, but Paper White narcissi, which could not be retarded in so warm a fall, are druggy.

November 12, at the afternoon and evening sessions, no less than 9,800 candidates received the seventh, or highest degree in the order, the largest initiation of any fraternal order at any time in the "United States.

It will be shown before various clubs and so- cieties and disseminated the coming season. Thomas Roland has already sold sev- eral hundred of his high-grade cycla- mens, which are better than ever this season. He is still cutting some fine nerines at Nahant, while from Revere come excellent shipments of Premier, Columbia, Crusader, Ophelia and Double White Killarney roses. M. W. Farr, of the West Street Green- houses, Reading, has a splendid house of sweet peas in full crop. There are some fifteen varieties, including some of the newest and best, and no better flow- ers ever came in here at this season. The Massachusetts Horticultural So- ciety is mailing to many clubs, societies and individuals a statement of what is being done by the special committee ap- pointed in New York last June to secure necessary modifications of Quarantine 37. The committee has been active for some time and has recently secured the services of a special secretary attorney to secure statistics, etc. The fight against the exclusion act will be pushed with all possible vigor and, with A. C. Burrage a leader in the movement, it steadily gains niomentupi. The 'first cold snap of the season found growers in this vicinity pretty well equipped with coal and, as many had also laid in stocks of wood, the out- look is quite encouraging. The anthra- cite situation is bad, but will steadily improve from now on, as restrictions on Prepared Cycas Leaves Per bunch of 10. 8 to 12 inches $0.40 12 to 16 inches 46 16 to 20 inches 50 20 to 24 inches 60 24 to 28 inches 75 28 to 32 inches 90 32 to 36 inches 1.00 36 to 40 inches 1.20 40 to 44 inches 1.40 44 to 48 inches 1.50 C.

Get busy at once. This is the cheapest red satin ribbon on the market today. LION AND COMPANY, 118-120 East 25th Street, New York Mention The Review when you write. This is literally true, one specimen chrysanthemum plant being heralded as possessing no less than 150 blooms. There are finely shajjed chrysanthemums and big specimens and little pompons and a lovely fern decoration. Most in- teresting of all was the exhibit of apples — good fruit from a reclaimed orchard near Media, which had expert care since March. So much accomplished in six months, what will another show? Various Notes. Professor J. G. Sanders, of the state agricultural department, has written from Harrisburg to growers in this sec- tion, warning them that the Japanese beetle has appeared in Pennsylvania and asking them to check its spread. It is estimated that decreased pro- duction is due, in part, to decreased labor. A place which formerly employed twelve men who worked sixty hours a week each, or 720 hours in all, now em- ploys nine men who work fifty hours a week, or 450 hours in all; 270 hours less is done each week in this place now. George Burton has two houses of Cypripedium insigne just coming into bloom. The soft coal market is easier and now is the time to see about supplies. Mrs. F. E. Austin, wife of a former president of the American Dahlia Soci- ety, died last week. The funeral was held from her home, at Tuckerton, N. J., November 15. J. J. Habcrmchl 's Sons will decorate the Bellevuo-Stratford ballroom for the first ball of the season, November 24, the evening before Thanksgiving. The place of Mrs. Sarah I. Smith, at Secane, Pa., which was leased by Bis- sett Bros., will probably be offered for sale. M. J. Callahan reports activity in mums and cyclamens. Mr. Callahan has had many funeral orders. The property of the Edgeplain Floral Co. was offered at sheriff's sale in Doylestown, November 12. The pur- chaser was the Lord & Burnham Co. and the sum paid was $40,000. J. M.

Stick tlicm under my nostrils today; Tlie smell of one bud while I'm living Knocks the spots off the finest bouquet That you ut uiy corpse may be slinging When you find I have passed on my way. "This is sentiment practically ex- pressed," said George B. Cannon, of the Quality Flower Shop, Stamford, Conn., who was the manager of the exhibition given by the Stamford Horticultural Society, November 5 to 7. Benjamin Hammond, of Beacon, N. Y., officiated as one of the judges in the exhibition and, in commenting on both the floral and vegetable exhibits, said he saw a decided advancement, rather than a decline, in the quality of production during the last few years. He urged that the exhibition be made an annual event. • • • • Valentin Burgevin's Sons, Kingston, N. Y., held their usual chrysanthemum show, and their greenhouses and store were filled with a fine quality of trained specimens and single blooms of the pop- ular varieties. A traveler who had just visited the annual show at Tuxedo Park felt like handing the palm to the Bur- gevins, as all the exhibitors at Tuxedo Park were amateurs with professional gardeners. "In any case," observed George Burgevin, "it is publicity and display which tend to boost business." • • • • Conrad C. Gindra, Poughkeepsie, N. Y., finds much enthusiasm among the college girls, who are his leading pa- trons. The usual inauguration of au- tumn's queen was held and, from the way business has begun, a profitable winter seems in sight. • • • • The veteran head of the Saltford Flower Shop, Poughkeepsie, N. Y., is, as usual, justly proud of the fine stock pro- duced. "Talk is cheap," said Mr. Salt- ford, "but if one has not the goods and a good business, it is so much vapor." • • • • Henry Hansen, Catskill, N. Y., ob- served that his business is regular all the year. The resort trade in the sum- mer helps him when business is inclined to be dull. • • • • "Has it ever occurred to you," said Willis S. Pino, Providence, K. I., "that the decrease in the number of birds may be due to their continually absorbing poison through eating foliage which has been sprayed with poisonous insecticides, and that the trade can render a good service in recommending non-poisonous material f" ■ • • • Warburton's, Fall River, Mass., in- augurated the season with an informal flower show which was appreciated by TO ' 785 FIFTH AVENUE ' Vl« 6t\\'Jtf orARTHBNT OPEN DAT AND NIGHT Member Florists' Telegraph Delivery Auoeiation The Rorists' Review NOTEMBHB 18, 1920 The florists wbote cards appear on the pases oanrlnc this head, are prepared to tUl orders •"•— from other florists tor local delivery on the usual basis.

Kohl reported favorably and they were elected unanimously to membership. All delinquent members, four in number, w^cre dropped from the rolls of membership for nonpayment of duos. The committee on reprinting the by-laws and also a membership roster was ordered to proceed with its work. The treasurer's report was encourag- ing, as the club's finances have greatly improved of late. Dr. Brix, son of Adolph Brix, asked permission to speak on the coming festival of the American Legion. The talk greatly interested the members and at the conclusion of his address it was moved to endorse the movement in every way and to help in any activities of the American Legion. Fred Mueller, assi.stant supervisor of school gardening for the board of educa- tion at Wasliington University, spoke on gardening at the university and asked that anj'onc present who wished to join a class in gardening notify the club's secretary. Vincent J. Gorly was then asked for a talk on "The Birthday Flower." Mr. Gorly, in his 30-minute talk, made an excellent impression on the members. After he had shown them wliat a great benefit it would be to the trade through- out tlie country if the list as it appeared in Tlie Review recently were adopted, the members moved that the St. Louis Florists' Club endorse the project of birthday flowers and Mr. Gorly 's list on whicli appeared the name of a flower for each month in the year. A rising vote of thanks was extended Mr. and Mrs. L. Jules Bourdet for the splendid afternoon's entertainment.

Plans were discussed to bring into the fold all retailers and growers who do not contribute to the publicity fund. It was decided that the next regular meeting of the publicity committee would fall on Thanksgiving evening. The chrysanthemum show at the Mis- souri Botanical Garden had an average attendance for the first week of 10,000 people daily and drew exclamations of admiration from the many visitors. The members of the Florists' Club who visited it in a body November 11 say it is the best ever staged at the garden. The 15,000-bloom single-stem display was a great attraction,' as well as the great specimen plants. Messrs. Pring and Jensen, who have charge of the exhibi- tion, say it will continue throughout the rest of the month. The opening of the new addition of the Stix, Barr & Fuller department store, last week, created a big demand for flowers, and the opening day it looked more like a flower show than a depart- ment store. A number of eastern flo- rists sent telegraph orders to local flo- rists for designs and plants. W. J. Staples, representing the Jef- ferson Seed Co., Jefferson, la., visited the various seed stores last week. Thomas Carr was confined to his home last week, but from late accounts he is improving and expects to bo out by the end of this week. His store has joined the movement to close on Sunday.

LOUISVILLE, KY. AUGUST R. BAUMER MASONIC TEMPLE Member Florists' Telegraph Delivery Ass'n Club was held November 8, this being the first meeting since "Say It with Flowers" week. The evening was spent in discussion and tying up any loose ends of this celebration. Every member of the club was of the opinion that it was the greatest stunt ever pulled off by the florists of this city, and they were unanimously in favor of holding another next fall. President Eobert L. Graham, Jr., announced an executive committee to have charge of this, with Joseph JMerritt, a boy who never tires when work is to be done, as chairman, and twenty-five of the best workers in tlic clul) to help him. This committee will be divided into sub-committees, each with a special feature to work out. The idea for next year, concurred in by everj'one, is a mammoth free flower show for a central feature, and every- Ihing else during the week radiating from that. This will require a hall like the Armory, where suflicient space may be given to all the florists to hold their fall openings instead of at their own stores. Staging such exhiliits as, for instance, a dining room setting to be furnished as elaborately as the exhibitor m.ay see fit, with all interior decorations, such as table decorations and mantel; or a parlor, with a bridal corner ar- ranged. A dozen such spaces so ar- ranged would be one of the best educa- tions Baltimore florists could give the public, and by seeing them all together tlie public would learn that there are more than one or two florists in the city who can do this work in an artistic manner. The plan is to have such an exhibition each fall, and see to it that the public attends it, and then no man in the city can afford to stay out, for the public will recognize creditable work. Another feature that will be worked out is the street parade, for it LOUISVILLE KENTUCKY Fine Flowers and Efficient Serr*- ice have distinguished this house for nearly forty years.

B. & A. to visit the show of the Chrysanthemum Society of America and to attend the banquet of the Washington club, held in the Franklin Square hotel. When the car left the Liberty street terminal there were forty-five florists and ladies on board. This was one of the times when there were nearly as many ladies as men. The party left Baltimore at 1 o'clock and reached Washington at 2:30, where they were met by W. F. Gude and Otto Bauer. From that time on it was a personally conducted tour, with these two men in the title role. The first visit was to the chrysanthemum show, which we found to be more of a local than a national show. Too much credit cannot be given to the Washing- ton florists for the support which they gave the Chrysanthemum Society of America, for Charles H. Totty and Pitcher & Manda, the orchid special- tists, were about the only out-of-town exhibitors. Mr. Totty had a display that would have given any competitor a good run for his money. From the show a visit was made to some of the stores. At Z, D. Blacki- stone's and George C. Shaffer's the ladies in the party were given large Savannah, Ga.

At 8 o'clock Mr. Gude led the march to the dining room. A splendid dinner was served. Mr. Gude made a happy toastmaster, and the whole affair was just a big family party, for, aside from the president of the district com- missioners, no one responded to toasts but florists. Mr. Gude made one depar- ture from the usual routine when he called upon Mrs. Mary Johnston to tell them how she had built up one of the largest florists' businesses in Baltimore. She was too embarrassed to reply, but the crowd would not have it that way, and after much applause she arose and said that ' ' it had been by much hard work and close application." Mr. Totty, who followed her, said it was the best speech he had ever heard, for in those few words she had said all of it. Among those in the Baltimore party were the following: Charles Patterson and wife, R. Vincent, Jr., R. A. Vincent, Miss Grace Vincent, "William F.

VIRGIN 838 Canal St.. NEW ORLEANS. LA. there was the question of extending the market for cut flowers, potted plants and the lilie. It is in the solution of this problem that advertising is of such material assistance. Advertising which educates is the kind that really pays dividends. The modern concejition of advertisings is to create in the mind of the reader a new desire and so extend immeasurably the product advertised. He spoke of the value of cooperative advertising. Tliis is not a substitute for individual advertising, which should sup]>lenient cooperative publicity. He listed many examples of coopera- tive advertising. It takes time to edu- cate the public. Advertising requires courage, for nerve and for the expendi- ture of money. The important influence of flowers on character sliould be one of the keynotes of coiiiierative advertising. The delivery of flowers by telegraph should be more widely advertised. The ]niblie should be taught something about the cost and difliculties of growing flowers. The address was well received and brought forth many kind remarks and a hearty vote of thanks. Supper was served afterwards and this was followed by a happy hour of dancing.

The Florists' Club of Hartford held its regular meeting at the City Club Tuesday evening, November 9. An ex- cellent dinner was served, after which President Joseph F. Coombs called the meeting to order. Five new members were elected. The new advertising schedule was read and was satisfactory to everyone present. A committee was appointed to call the florists of the state together with the idea of forming a Connecticut State Florists' Club. As a state organization we shall be able to do more in the way of legislation and ad- vertising than is possible for a city club to do. 8. S.

Mums of all grades are coming in equal to the demand, but most varieties are about a week or two in advance, due to the warm weather here during October. !Most of the late varieties are coming in now, and there will be, no doubt, a shortage of mums for Thanks- giving.

Flowers that have been arriv- ing for the last ten days or so were in- tended for Thanksgiving trade, but now it looks as though it might be necessary to go begging for flowers at that time. Stock, of course, is by no means as firm as it should be and is lacking in keeping qualities. This applies practically to all inside stock. Business comes in spurts and is not at all regular; in fact, it has failed to readjust itself since the elec- tion. There is still, at time of writing, a quantity of outdoor flowers reaching us, although light frosts have killed the greater part of them. Park Exhibition.

A8HBORNE GOLDFISH & SUPPLY COMPANY Hatcheries; Burlington, Iowa; Indianapolis, Ind.; Frederick, Md. 1313 Agency St., BURLINGTON, IOWA. INDIANAPOLIS, IND. The Market. Market conditions have changed lit- tle in the last week. Chrysanthemums have been arriving in large supply, but there lias been no heavy surplus. The demand has been fairly brisk, causing them to be cleaned up daily. Carnations arc plentiful and the ma- jority of good quality. There are, how- over, some poor ones that can be bought at a low price. Although not in active demand, carnations have suffered little this chrysanthemum season. Roses have been rather scarce and all those available have been moving well. Neither Easter nor calla lilies are obtainable. Small pompon mums have been quite popular. Newcomers include a few yel- low narcissi and a few more sweet peas. Other miscellaneous stock on the mar- ket is mignonette, orchids, calendulas and cut primroses. Totted plants offered are clirysanthe- niums, cherries, primroses, begonias and a few cyclamens. Association Meets. The members of the Indiana State Florists' Association were the guests of the Richmond florists for the Novem- ber meeting, which was held Monday, November 8. A considerable number left Indianapolis on the 7:4.'j special train, while many others motored over. The train stopped at the E. G. Hill range and considerable time was spent there enjoying the wonderful seedling roses, which were in fine form.

Everything was grown to perfection and the place was ill immaculate order. Carnations, ■•lirysantlicmums, sweet peas, cyclamens, primroses and ])oinsettias were splendid. From there the florists went to the Knights of Pythias club rooms, where an excellent dinner was served by the ladies' auxiliary. The meeting was held there afterwards. W. W. Coles pre- sided in the aV>senco of the president. Three new names were jiroposed for iiicniliersliiii: Carl Rieman, of Indian- apolis; C. F. Coffee, of Kokomo, and Mr. McKernan, of Knightstown. W. C. Kfmzelnian, of Greensburg, was elected to membership. Professor Laurenz Greene, of Purdue University, gave a talk, explaining the [)roper method of establishing a course in floriculture at Purdue. Other organi- zations, such as the fruit growers, gar- deners, dairymen and cattle breeders, iiave been successful in establishing courses there and great benefits have resulted. Professor Greene felt confi- dent that the florists could accomplish the same result. The two "Say It with Flowers" sign- boards that were given to the associa- tion by Max Schling, to do with as it saw fit, were as yet unplaced and Joseph • Hill moved that one of these be erected on the Indiana-Ohio state line, on the national road, and the other on the same road, at the other end of the state, on the Illinois-Indiana line. This motion was jtassed unanimously. It was left with the Richmond and Terre Haute florists to see to their erection. E. H.

ICO The Florists^ Review NOVEMBUU 18. 19l!0 For Shipping Those Flowers THE H & D Floral Box affords that ample protection, economical weight and sturdiness which make it the ideal container for your floral shipments. Cut flowers and plants of all kinds are invariably in better delivery con- dition when packed in these specially de- signed containers. Stout walls and covers prevent gaping of boxes and exposure of contents, when under the weight of other packages in transit. Made in various con- venient sizes, all complying with postal and express regulations. All standard and spe- cial sizes to order. For safer and more satisfactory containers use H & D Floral Boxes. THE HINDE & DAUCH PAPER CO. 162 Water Street, Sandusky, Ohio Toronto, Canada: King St. Subway and Hanna Ave. will be no premiums. It is the object of the florists to help make the apple show a success, and in previous years it has had few visitors. In this way they will be able to obtain a donation from the state, similar to the apple societies, to put on an annual show. O. E. Stein- kamp also gave a short talk and E. E. Temperley appealed to all present for stock in order to make this a creditable display. No action was taken concerning the next meeting and adjournment followed, in order to visit other places in Rich- mond. At the range of the Fred H. Lemon Co. an interesting feature was the new white rose, Angelus, which is superb. This was also being grown in fine condi- tion by the E. G. Hill Co. and Joseph H. Hill Co. The Richmond Greenhouse Co. had some splendid Laddie carnations. Various Notes. Mr. James, of Greene 's Flower Shop, is the proud father of a girl. Joseph Hill and Earl Mann, of Rich- mond, Ind., went through the Scottish Rite in Indianapolis last week. They are also journeying across the hot sands to the Oasis Murat. Oscar Carlstedt will also be on the same journey through the rite and the shrine. Joseph Schoey, recently with A. Wie- gand's Sons Co., is now with S. T. Hitz &Son. C. W. Johnson, president of the Amer- ican Carnation Society and secretary of the Chrysanthemum Society of America, visited Indianapolis Novem- ber 13. Baur & Steinkamp won a silver cup with a white seedling chrysanthemum FRAT-M'S Frat-Ms are a great help to florists who make funeral work. They are exact reproductions of the ofllclal emblems embossed In gold and the different color* as required by each Fraternal and Labor orKanizatlon. The florist is saved time and worry in the nuisance of lettering, as well as the keeping of such a stock of wire frames, and different colored flowers. Just use such flowers as you have and then attach a FRAT-M with paste to the chlfTon, or by the hanger that comes for each, as a card, and that is all there is to It, excepting the comment and commendatory talk for the florist. Just pick out a dozen of the most used from the list following, enclosing $2.00 per dozen, and if they don't make you ten times their cost, return those unused and get your money.

A survey of the greenhouses in this market gives a favorable outlook for Thanksgiving. Growers believe they will clean up on mums and that there will probably be a shortage rather than a surplus. So far there is no overproduc- tion. Iceboxes in the wholesale houses are almost empty after each day's ship- ping, the shipping being brisker than the local trade, though retailers are far from idle. Prices will be advanced slightly, not so much on the better qual- ity as on the poorer. Orders are being received early, indicating that dealers arc preparing for a good business. Mums are selling this week from |'_' to $."), having advanced on the higher grades $1 over a week ago. Roses are from $4 to $15; jiompons, 60 and 7."> cents; California violets, $2.50 ]ier dozen bunches. Growers are holding their carnation crop for Christmas, so these blooms are scarcer now and are .4=.") per hundred. Greens are plentiful. Various Notes. The William L. Rock Flower Co. is cutting all varieties of mums, anemones and pompons, calendulas, snapdragons and sweet jieas. The firm's mums are better this year, licing grown on single stems. Last season they grew two on a stem and had large blooms, but nut so large as the ones now being cut. P. A.

Some days there seemed to be a shortage, while on other days there was plenty of stock. The larger chrysanthemums have been arriving more abundantly and find a ready market. The best are now bring ing $.5 per dozen, including white and yellow Chadwick, white and yellow Turner and Eaton. So far, there have not been any fancy pink mums, but the season is still early for them. Roses are moving well, but there is only a limited quantity being shipped in. Snapdragon is arriving in larger quan- tities and is being sold at $G to $8 per liiindrcd. Some good cypripediums found a market here and the outlook is good for them, as it is with cattleyas. The first calla lilies of the season went well and Easter lilies are also ino\'ing better than they did a week ago. Galax^ Ferns Prepared Oak, Magnolia, Etc. Prices f. o. b. Galax, Va.

M. Christian, for- merly an employee in greenhouses here, has entered business for himself. He has built a greenhouse in the last year. Albany, Ore, — The Albany Floral Co. has changed hands, although it is still under the old name. W. Duncan, the former owner, has been bought out by O. Romaine, who will run the business. SAN JOSE, CAL. A. A. Hunt, formerly superintendent of the Arthur Letts estate, Hollywood, Cal., and for several years connected with the California Nursery Co., went into partnership with Arthur Cann at San Jose, Cal., in August. Mr. Hunt manages the landscape department of the business, which he states has been progressing satisfactorily. The firm is known as Cann & Hunt. Mr. Hunt is widely known in the trade, having been located at Millbrook, N. Y., previously, and having been later superintendent of the J. W. Clise estate, at Seattle, Wash. TUCSON, ARIZ. John Howe and Mrs. Howe, of 44 Stone avenue, have returned from a trip to Los Angeles and found many orders awaiting them on their return. Mr. Howe says that business has been better ifkia year than any other year since he ?ha8 been in the trade. He has a large ajod attractive store. The Burns Flower Shop is the most recent addition to the retail stores in Tucson, and Mr. Burns reports a satis- factory opening. Flowers for the open- ing were shipped in from the E. C. Am- ling Co., Los Angeles. Considerable alterations are contem- plated by the Tucson Seed & Floral Co. H. E. R. PHOENIX, ARIZ. The Market. Plenty of good stock and a steady de- mand for it, is the report from this thriving city. The occasion of the state fair made all the florists busier than usual, many orders having been received from visitors. A great deal of the stock used is shipped from Los Angeles and San Francisco, but there are great quan- tities of outdoor roses grown here. It is astonishing to see the fine quality of American Beauties grown unprotected from the sun. Both the foliage and the blooms are as fine as indoor stock. These and zinnias are the principal flowers grown here. Various Notes. The Donofrio Floral Co. is a busy con- cern. C. E. Morton and his able crew are always at work. Heavy funeral orders and preparation for the exhibitions at the state fair occupied the attention of the force last week. Several first prizes, including one for wedding bouquets, one for a group of ferns and one for a group of flowers, were awarded to this firm. Henry Morton, son of C. E. Morton, who is employed at the store, stole a march on his friends and was married last week. Plans are being made to enlarge the store in the near future. The Arizona Seed & Floral Co. had the flower concession at the state fair and had an attractive booth. J. Sievers, formerly of San Francisco, is now man- aging the floral end of the business. Mr. McNabb reports an increasingly good business in the seed end. H. B. B. LOS ANGELES, CAL. Dominic Tassano has returned from the north and reports that he has made arrangements for Christmas greens and berries to be shipped here in large quantities. He says conditions, in re- gard to labor and quality of stock, were never better than at this time. Whilfl giving Thomas Wright a friendly call, the writer met Charles Gutting, who, by his conversation, is quite ready to handle holly berries, of which he has thirty-five tons to market, the bigger proportion of which is al- ready ordered. O. C. Saake reports that weegee birds are moving fast, but he has a large supply for the holidays. A call at the store of the D. S. Purdie Co. showed everyone was busy and that business was rushing. Frank Lichtenberg says business dur- ing the last week has returned to old form and his force is kept busy with funeral work. The opening of the sea- son at the various clubs has added activity and is keeping everyone on the jump. His store is a fine sight for flower lovers. Much credit is due to Mr. Hanson for the way in which he keeps the windows and store decorated. About thirty florists of Los Angeles, all of whom had subscribed to the re- cent anti-Japanese publicity fund, had the pleasure of being Thomas Wright's guests at his club for dinner Monday, November 8, and spent an interesting evening. He stated, while sitting at the table, that there were a large number of his friends in the business whom he had failed to get in touch with, or had MUMS MUMS The usual high quality shipping stock that we always handle.

Los Angeles St., LOS ANGELES, CAL. SAN FRANCISCO, CAL. The Market. Chrysanthemums are stiffening in price a little. The Japanese mums, grown under cloth, are scarcer than they were a week ago, and one or two of the growers say it is difficult to sup- ply them for eastern shipments at the former prices. By Thanksgiving the big mums will be commanding decidedly higher figures than they brought early in the season. The market is still flooded with pompons in a vast variety of colors and sizes. Outdoor mums are much in demand for baskets and for dcoorativo purposes. Roses .nre becoming more plentiful and it is gratifyinn; to the growers to note that they nre advancing in price, as well as in quantity. In a week it is expected the supply will be still greater, ("nr- nations are becoming more j)lentiful. Lilies of the valley are coming in fairly well and are showing a larger ]iercentage of buds to the stem than they did earlier in the season. There is just enough valley to supply the local demand. Violets are abundant and are of good quality. Quantities of violets are being shipped and the local market is consum- ing them freely.

Quaint painted dolls, called "Yaz-Zak" dolls, are a novelty which Josepli 's is featuring. The woman art- ist who designed and is copyrighting them wanted to devise something abso- lutely new. The material of which they are made looks like fine lawn drawn over fiber, but is really kelp, fished out of the ocean. Bulbs are featured this week by the MacRorie-McLaren Co. The firm im- ported a large consignment from Hol- land and reports a big demand. The landscape department of this firm is rushed with contracts for laying out ornamental gardens for beautiful new homes in various parts of the state, including Santa Barbara, Fresno and Los Angeles. Autumn tints in flowers and baskets have been featured so much by Podesta & Raldrtcclii that a rusliing trade is re- ported by the firm in baskets and deco- rations of tliis sort.

California shipments arc still arriving, but the cuts from local gardens have been arriving so abundantly that there lias really been an oversupply of the smaller types of mums. This led to somewhat lower prices, the only ease where a notable change in the selling list was seen for the entire week. Some of the finest Bonnaffon ever shown here are on the market now. Local Turner is also of good quality. Mums and roses are the leading sellers, although carnations continue the most desired flowers in the market. Tli" Ineal crop of carnations has not develojied as ex]ief1(Ml and each day the growers are unable to fill orders.

Holland bulb exporters who arc being paid in money of the United States are reaping a neat additional profit, on top of their high prices for bulbs, through the conversion of their funds into guild- ers. An advertising data book finds the seed industry of the United States and Canada comprises 3,265 commercially rated mem- bers, classified as follows: Contract growers, 175; wholesalers and jobbers, ex- porters and importers, 325; mail-order dealers, 300; retailers, 2,465. A SEEDSMAN had a nibble last week on a car of beans of a variety of which ho happened to have more to offer, so ho queried four other houses and was sur- prised at the variation in the prices at which the stock was tendered. There was a sj>road of 2^2 cents per pound over the four offers. Gardeners who have been holding crofis of onion sets in the hope tlie market would rally are in a bad way if they have no storage. With operators well suj)plie(i with sets grown on contract, there is no bid price for crops forced on the market by the ina'/ility of the growers to carry them over the winter. The Wisconsin Canncrs' Association, comprising the principal pea ])ackers of the United States, held its annual con- vention at Milwaukee last week with an attendance said to have ineliKled more seed travelers than canners. That may be a somewhat exaggerated statement of the case, hut it is literally true that there ■were more pea peddlers than buyers. Nearly every seedsman has peas to sell this season. TllE extremely high prices that were paid for soy beans and cou]>e.'is last spring do not seem to have had nuich effect in inducing growers to save a larger pro- portion than usual of these erojis for seed or grain purposes this fall.

Joint Committee Reports. Official representatives of the Amer- ican Seed Trade Association and the Vegetable Growers' Association of America met at Washington October 21 to study the problem of vegetable va- riety nomenclature. Principally through the activity of Francis C. Stokes, of the Stokes Seed Farms Co., Moorostown, N. J., some active work is under way, which gives promise of real progress in the solution of this problem. Members of the American Seed Trade Association will remember that at the last conven- tion a committee on vegetable nomencla- ture was appointed as follows: Francis C. Stokes, Moorestown, N. J., chairman; Josiah Livingston, Columbus, O.; Calvin N. Keency, Le Roy. N. Y.; Robert D. Edwards, "Philadelphia; F. G. Cuthbert- son, San Francisco, Cal. Preceding the appointment of this committee, at its annual convention held at Detroit in 1919 the Vegetable Grow- ers' Association of America appointed a committee on the same problem, com- prising Francis C. Stokes, chairman; J. T. Crow, Guclph, Ontario; H. F. Tomp- son, Arlington, Mass., and T. C. Johnson, Norfolk, Va. August 13, Chairman Stokes mailed a questionnaire to members of the Amer- ican Seed Trade Association. The re- plies indicate a quite general support of the standardization of varietal names and promise of assistance from seed firms. Meeting at Washington. At the call of Chairman Stokes the following men met in joint committee at the bureau of plant industry, United States Department of Agriculture, Wash- ington, D. C: Francis C. Stokes, chair- man of the joint committee; Calvin N. Keeney, Josiah Livingston, Robert D. Edwards, T. C. Johnson and H. F. Tomp- son. Chairman Stokes invited Dr. W. W. Tracy, Sr., Dr. D. N. Shoemaker and John Tracy to join the committee in their study, which invitation they ac- cepted. This committee spent the entire day and evening in discussing the prob- lem, mapping out a plan of work and J. A. Vandervoort & Co. Wholesale Bulb Growers NOORDWYK, .

Mail Address— Care of MALTUS & WARE 116 Broad St., New York City Our representatives will be calling on you. shaping a code of vegetable nomencla- ture to be submitted to the American Seed Trade Association and the Vege- table Growers' Association of America. One of the first problems presenting itself was the necessity of thorough in- formation in regard to the trade names and comparative market quality of the different vegetables and their varieties. It was quite evident that much assist- ance must be obtained through a wider circle of men to work on this part of the problem. Consequently, the vegetables were grouped together according to their natural relationship, and some twenty- one committees of the leading authori- ties in the seed trade of America were suggested as group committees and a jjlan of work was mapped out for these committees. Since the meeting of the joint committee these men have all re- ceived notice of their appointment, and a gratifying response has been received, indicating a general approval of the work in hand and a willingness to co- operate in carrying it out. It has been thought best to delay the publication of the individual committees until the re- plies have been heard from all the men who have been asked to do this work, and any changes made which are neces- sary. Follow St. Louis Code. The men of the bureau of plant indus- try came to the assistance of the com- mittee in the study of a code of nomen- clature and provided a copy of the St. Louis code, adopted by the American SEEDS 30-32 Barclay Street, NEW YORK CITY Tomato Seed and Sweet Potato Plants Pleased to qnote yon prices on qnantitlea and Tarletles wauted for present or fatare delivery.

This code has been generally accepted as a model, and was closely followed by the joint committee in its work. The code suggested by the joint com- mittee of the A. S. T. A. and the Vege- table Growers' Association is here given for study. The committee desires to have suggestions and criticism so long as it may be constructive, so that the results of the adoption of the code will be helpful to the seed trade in general and tend to the adoption of a more nearly standard list of names and an im- proved quality in seeds, possible through a clearer understanding of the real types which are available, and their compara- tive value as judged by seedsmen and November 18, 1820 The Florists' Review 121 DUTCH BULBS-For Prompt Shipment HYACINTHS -Second Size Pink, Queen of Pinks, Gigantea, Lady Derby.

The committee's statement of the code reads: This code aims to establish a simple and ex- act systPHi of vegetable variety nomenclature that shall be appropriate, dignified and stable. In consonance with this idea it is urged that all persons conferring names upon new varieties of vegetables endeavor to select brief names thut are fittingly expressive of some cliaracter, qual- ity, place, person or event, associated with the source, time or place of origin of tlie variety. The paramount right of the originator, discov- erer or introducer of a new variety, to name it, within the limitations of tliis code, is recognized and established, PRIORITY. A name once used iu a group shall not be used again therein. This code applies to nil vegetables which are grouped together in common usage without regard to their botanical relationship. The name first published for a variety shall be the accepted and recognized name, except when contrary to the provisions in this code. Names appearing in dated publications shall have precedence over those undated. FORM OF NAMES. Names of new varieties preferably sliall be of one word, but must not exceed three words. Valid names of existing varieties shall not be changed in such a way as to lead to confusion or loss of identity. Possessive nouns must lie avoid- ed. It is recommended that an imported va- riety shall retain its foreign name if not ob- jectionable, or its English equivalent.

DANISH SEED CROPS SMALLER. "The decline in seed i)rices, which made itself felt all the world over al- ready during the 1018 season, and the incongruity it evolved between the Danish seed culture and the other lines of Danish agriculture," state Hjalmar Hartmann & Co., of Copenhagen, Den- mark, in their crop report, "has caused farmers to indulge in some unfounded mistrust about seed growing, equaled only by the ojitiinism they felt a few years ago about the same subject. "The change, as explained above, is chiefly due to the dropping seed prices, to which must be added that, at the same time, the prices for breadstuffs and feed- ing materials advanced.

The Western Seedsmen's Association held a meeting at the Hotel Baltimore, Kansas City, Mo., Saturday, November (5. Fred Mangelsdorf, of the Mangels- dorf Seed Co., Atchison, Kan., who was elected president of the association last May, delivered an address at the morn- ing session. He outlined conditions of the seed business, particularly during the last six months, giving a compre- hensive view of the problems that have confronted the dealers in that time. H. A. Johns, of the Sioux City Seed & Nursery Co., Sioux City, la., a former president of the assoeiati(«i ; F. W. T5ar- teldes, of Lawrence, Kan.; M. Knrtz- weil, of the Iowa Seed Co., Des Moines, la.; Clifford Corneli, of the Schisler-Cor- neli Seed Co., St. Louis, and J. C. Robin- son, of Waterloo, Neb., also delivered addresses. Mr. Kurtzweil suggested that seeds- men watch closely tlie cost of supplies and packets, as there seems no imme- diate prospect of these items coming down and they must be reckoned with when it comes to quoting prices. Publicity. The subject of publicity received con- siderable attention. This association is connected with the American Seed Trade Association in the publicity campaign, which was tlie subject of a talk by A. M. Eldridge. of tlie Henry Field Seed Co., Shenandoah, Ta. Mr. Eldridge is the representative of the Western Seeds- men's Association in the publicity cam- paign. He told the members that the next few months would bring forth con- siderable advertising of garden seed, and newspapers are to be used as an iidvertisiiig medium. Tlie success of the florists' slogan, "Say It with Flowers," and the amount of advertising they have done has spurred the garden seed dealers to greater efforts. Some of the field seed men Iiintcd that they might put on some sort of publicity canijiaign also. There was some discussion of trade n('cei)tniices brought on by a talk by J. G. Pejipard, of tlie J. G. Peppard Seed Co., of Kansas City. He said that dis- tributors sometimes ]iut stock where it could not be properly handled, on ac- count of trade acceptances, and the same method sometimes caused purchases to be made on artificially expanded credits. It was the general opinion that seeds- men could avoid trade acceptances by arranging with their banks to pay casli for their stocks. At the noon luncheon the address was given by ex-Governor W. J. Bailey, of Kansas, a director of the Federal Re- serve Bank of the tenth district. In the evening the Kansas City, Atchison and Lawrence seedsmen were hosts to the visiting mcinbors of the trade at a ban- quet at the Hotel Savoy. Six firms were admitted to member- sliip. The meeting was well attended, fContlnued on paifp 14S.1 Special Offer Gladiolus Bulbs Mrs. Francis King, Halley, America 1st size $25 00 per 1000; 2nd size 22.00 per 1000 3rd size Hi.OO per 1000 $116.00 per 5000 100.00 per 5000 76.00 per 5000 ENGLISH MANETTI Right Size for Greenhouse Grafting $65.00 per 1000; 10,000 or more at $62.50 per 1000 NOVEMBER DELIVERY Buddleia Asiatlca, 3-inch pot plants.

Lift them again in two years' time, cutting away the dis- eased portions. As a rule this treatment followed for a couple of times will erad- icate the disease. Those badly infested would better be thrown away and, if not a choice variety, may not be worth this expensive treatment. Some people advise dipping them in Bordeaux mixture. Peterson Nursery.

Eoses are none too plentiful, owing, no doubt, to the heavy pinching for the holidays. Carnations remain about the same. Chrysanthemums are fairly good, but are going fast and it looks as though there would be few left for Thanksgiving. Sweet peas are of good quality, but a little scarce. The first Paper Whites are beginning to ar- rive. Various Notes. The second meeting of Denver Flo- rists was held with the Denver Wholesale Florists Co., November 5. After the reading of the minutes of the previous meeting, J. Roberts, chairman, gave the committee 's report, saying that it would not be advisable to hold a ' ' Say It with Flowers" week this year, with so short a time for preparation. By unanimous vote the temporary officers and com- mittees were made permanent and H. A. Clausen was chosen vice-president. The feeling seemed to prevail that an elab- orate organization was unnecessary and that it should be entirely for business for the present, with no regular meet- ings. An assessment for both growers and retailers was agreed upon that would put at the disposal of the adver- tising committee about $400 monthly. The Boldt-Lundy House of Flowers had an especially attractive window last week, with novelty baskets set off by large vases of alternate Yellow and White Turner mums. The America Flower Shop had a dis- play of Parisienne window baskets. Mr. Braun, of Cheyenne, Wyo., also Mr. Flohr and John Krauss, a former Denver grower, from Washington, were visitors last week.

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 amount 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. HEATING TWO HOUSES. As I am now completing my green- house and am ready fur the heating plant, I should be glad to receive ad- vice about it. I am sending a rough sketch of my two houses, which are 16x40 each. They are eight feet to the ridge and five to the eaves. Half-way up the sides there are double wood walls filled with sawdust, and the rest of the structure is glass. The houses run east and west. There is no partition between the two houses. They are protected on east and west sides. The pipe I have is 2-inch, 3-inch and 4-inch. The boiler is a 5-section one made by the American Eadiator Co. Heating is by hot water. In each house there are two raised beds three feet wide with pipes running under them and between these the center beds are six feet wide and built on the ground. In the first house I have arranged four 2-inch return pipes under each raised bed. In the second house I have four 2-inch pipes under the south bed and three 2-inch pipes under the north raised bed. I have cut-offs at inlet and outlet of these pipes. Would you advise using one or two lead pipes, and of 3-inch or 4-inch pip- ing? The boiler return is 4-inch, that being the size of the lead. J. R. S.— Ind. Neither the letter nor the diagram indicates clearly just what size of pipes has been used for the leads. It would be preferable to use two 2%-inch flow pipes in each house, placing them upon the plates, but it would suffice if one 3-inch flow were carried under the ridge of each house. The temperature desired in the houses is not stated, but flows of suitable size would probably secure 55 to 60 degrees in zero weather in the first house and 50 degrees in the second. If 60 degrees is desired in the first house when the atmospheric temperature is 10 degrees below zero, it would be well to put in an additional return on the north side. Two more pipes would increase the economy of firing, especially in severe weather. BOILEB TOO LARGE. I am building a small lean-to, 12x35 feet, 0:1 the south side of my residence.

KROESCHELL BOILERS have no bulky, soot accumu- lating surfaces— you avoid the disagreeable work and trouble indispensable to cleaning boilers with compli- cated and tortuous back and forth passages.

Just attach the comparatively mexpensive Morehead Back-to-Boiler Sys- tem to your present boiler equipment and you can dismiss the winter months' prob- lem from your mind. Substitute for the steam pumps you are perhaps using now — the Morehead Sys- tem will eliminate sluggish circulation forever — and keep all your steam pipes clear of condensation — returning it to the boilers immediately as pure, hot feed water — in just the condition to use again with the least consumption of fuel. Now — before the frigid blasts of another winter are upon us — is the time to find out what the Morehead System can do for you. Write immediately for proof jhat the coal man actually pays for your Morehead System in a few months' time — as well as copies of letters from pro- gressive florists who find the Morehead System invaluable in growing prize-win- ning flowers.

Although the boiler is nearly three times as large as is necessary to heat the proposed greenhouse, it may be used with a fair degree of fuel economy if careful attention is given to the firing.

The system that florists have been using for handling the condensation from their greenhouses has in a majority of cases been very unsatisfactory and for that reason the Farnsworth Engineers have given the matter considerable study and have worked out a very efficient and very satisfactory Closed Loop System which will be of interest to the owner of a greenhouse, because we are able to positively eliminate all water and air from the coils, hold the condensation under pressure and deliver it directly into the boilers with no heat loss, other than that due to direct radiation from the common return pipe. The system is very simple and requires practically no attention. It works auto- matically and keeps the temperature of the coils even at all times, and works satisfac- torily on any pressure, depending upon the requirements of your greenhouse. The line cut shows a Farnsworth Condensation Pump located inside the greenhouse at some low point. This machine handles the condensation as mentioned above and de- livers it into a return line leading back to the boiler house. Above the boilers is located a Farnsworth Duplex Boiler Feeder. This machine has two chambers, one of which is always receiving while the other is delivering into the boilers, so that the condensation is never backed up in the return line. Each greenhouse has a Farnsworth Pump to handle its condensation and each pump discharges into the common return line leading back to the Farnsworth Duplex Boiler Feeder. The pumps are small, so that they can be easily located as shown. We wish to bf frank with th« (fTM^nhousp propriotors. We have not pushed the sale of FarnNworth equipment with you beraiise of the demand made upon ur for our H.vKtems by paper mills, textHe mlllH, HUgrar refineries and biif plantH where liesttinfi: and drying conditions required this system.

The bench along the south wall appears to be about five feet wide and is only eight inches from the ground. I should advise excavating under this bench so that the ground would be sixteen inches from the bottom of the bench, using five of the returns as an under-bench coil and placing only four in the other coil. There should be an opening three or four inches wide be- tween the outer edge of the benches and the walls. Miter the east end of each coil to provide for the expansion of the pipes. Cast-iron headers may be used for the coils, or they may be built up of tees and short nipples, using three tees, 2%- inch, 2-inch and IVo-inch, respectively, with 1%-inch side openings and a 1%- inch ell to receive the pipe forming the south line in each of the coils. The headers at the other end of the coils, should be built up in the same manner and the main returns connecting the coils with the heater should also be 2%- inch. These may be joined into one 3-inch. EL PASO, TEX. The Potter Floral Co. probably grows more of its own flowers than any other firm in El Paso.

Asbestos Black Glaizing Cement A PRACTICAL glazing material made for application in a practical manner. No clumsy, slow working tools necessary — simply a putty bulber or two and a filling gun to load same — furnished free to users. Ajax Black Glazing Cement has been used throughout the country for several years with excellent results. To prospective purchasers we can give names of satisfied users in every greenhouse center — over a hundred names in Chicago locality alone. Not Affected by Extreme Heat or Cold Our product is a cement-like composition of Asbestos Fibres, and heavy, semi-drying hydro-carbon oils. Its exceptionally long life is due to the fact that it never thoroughly hardens like old fashioned white putty. The outside surface (which is exposed to the oxygen of the air) forms a resilient tough skin, below which the material remains soft and plastic. Because of this we guarantee that the coldest weather will not cause it to become brittle or pull away. On the other hand our product is warranted not to sag or run in extremely hot weather due to its being inter-laced with the Asbestos Fibres. As Ajax Black Glazing Cement never thoroughly hardens,' glass glazed with it can be shifted when desired without the loss of breakage that so often results when hard drying white putties are used. FREE OFFER To facilitate the application of our product we furnish the fol- lowing apparatus free of charge : AVith Each Barrel 2 Bulbers. 1 Gun for filling buibers With Each Half -Barrel 1 Bulber 1 Gun for filling bulber Easily applied with a bulber. No clumsy tools oecessary. Lower Cost than White Putty Compared with the old fashioned White Lead putties, Ajax Black Glazing Cement not only lasts years longer, but is a great deal lower in initial cost.

It is reported to us that sash made of lieart Cypress by a prominent greenhouse contractor in Chicago and placed in position in a greenhouse at Des Plaines, 111., in 1868, are still doing service. Jacob Fries, Bethlehem, Pa., has Cypress sash that have stood the racket for 30 years and are still on the job. And these are not isolated cases — they represent no more than a fair test of "The Wood Eternal" for greenhouse use. It will serve you as well and save you the nuisance and expense of repairs and replacements. The argument backed by such facts cannot be answered by mere talk. Ask the manufacturer or con- tractor who wants to give you a "substitute" for Cypress to cite you to an endurance test of 30 or 50 years to the credit of the so-called "substitute." That is no more than a fair precaution on your part — good, ordinary business sense. If he would meet the Cypress record with more talk, and no test, then there's a "nigger in that wood- ]tile." You know you would better i)ass up the "substitute" and stick to the real article, which is Cypress. "PECKY" CYPKESS. You greenhouse men know how common it looks and how uncommon it lasts. The U. S. Govt. Kept. (Forest Service Bui. 95) says— "That the disease (which produces the 'peck') has been a long time ])reying upon Cypress timber is apparent from an examination of Cypress logs dug from .-illuvial deposits many feet below the present level of the Gulf of Mexico. Some of that prehistoric timber is pecky, though it has been buried during a period estimated at no less than 30,000 years. . . . The effect of tlie disease (known as 'Pecky') ... is believed to act as a preservative . . . and to liinder decay." Is 30,000 years' "hindering of decay" long enough for YOUR greenhouse? There Is no known record of rotten "Pecky." Use nothing c1.«p for benclies and bench standards. It is cheap, too. A postal will do, a letter Is better- — either brings a booklet or two from the famous CYPRESS Pocket Library (a strictly authoritative reference work). Vol. 3 Is all about "GREEN HOI SKS." It is FREE. Send for It. Also ask for Vol. U, on "Pecky' • — a money saver. Take no hearsay. GET THE FACTS. Then ACT. Vol. 4 Is the Barn Book; Vol. 20 is "All Farm Needs Book"; Vol. 36 is the "Carpentry Book." in -whicli a dozen hard jobs of carpentry are made easy, and Vol. 87 is the Big, Xew Silo Book. All contain plans for building and are profusely illustrated. SOUTHERN CYPRESS MANUFACTURERS' ASSOCIATION 1230 PERDIDO BLDG., NEW ORLEANS, LA. 1230 HEARD NAT'L BANK BLDG.. JACKSONVILLE.

An Elastic Cement That Expands and Contracts With the Weather Make your greenhouse weather-tight with Aabeatfalt, the elastic cement that never gets hard, cracks or peels in cold weather or runs in hot weather. $1^5 per gallon. Why pay more? You can't set anything better no matter how much more you pay. The ingredients are of the purest; weighs but 10 pounds to the gallon. With the scsu-city of coal and its high prices, the careful applicatioo 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, priot 12.00. With every barrel purchaM of Asbestfalt, one machine free. YOUNGSTOWN, O.

Ben.lamln Chase Co., Derry Village, N. H. POINSETTIAS IN COLD HOUSE. I have sixty 8-inch pans with three poinsettias in each. They have not grown evenly. Some are not twelve inches high and others are twice that height. The soil is sandy loam mixed with considerable cow manure. The plants are thrifty now, but have not grown any and I should like to know how to handle them from now on. My greenhouse is not heated. C. D. 0.— La. The culture of poinsettias is not dif- ficult up to a certain stage; viz.., when the flower bracts begin to form and weather grows cold. When cold nights arrive an.d temperatures drop sharply under glass, you will note that the poin- settia leaves hang down, showing plainly how they feel the cold. This is the sea- son when they need great care, particu- larly in the matter of watering. Yel- low foliage will be the result of keepinp them either too wet or too dry. At tempt to keep the soil fairly moist and, as the bracts develop, apply weak doses of stimulant in the form of liquiil manure. Once a week will ho beneficial. As your greenhouse is not heated, it will be necessary to keep the soil a little drier when the bracts are fully developed. C. W. Amelia, O. — Eolland E. Seales, for many years a truck gardener here, plan^ to devote most of the fifty-four acres ho has under cultivation to flowers. He will grow peonies, dahlias, asters aiiii gladioli.

More Gabble About Gables \ Why all this gable" i^abble? For exactly the same reason as why all this talk about loosened {jlass. On one depends much of the other. SfJ If a fjable gives, the glass goes. ^ It tioes, because the uiving of a gable means a give to SR the entire frame. 5® It's the give that loosens the glass. M Take a tree. a( A pine for example. SBj There it stands, strong and sturdy. ^ Winds blow against it, and it never breaks. But it gives. iJecause of the give, it doesn't break. Stiffen that same tree, if it were possible to do such a thing, by putting another one beside it, and clamp- ing tliem together. Still they would give and sway. \ow suppose you had braced that tree by running braces against it from the ground up, what would have happened? There would have been no give below the braces, and a lot less above them. / It would seem, therefore, that with present day big houses, having such tall gable rafters; that stiffen- ing them is not enough. That's why we brace ours. It's one of the big reasons why our houses have so little loosening or breakage of glass. Braces run from the gable rafters direct into the ground, where they are securely anchored in concrete. Other braces go direct to the ridge. To further take the wind's thrust off the frame, we tie brace the first three columns, running the tie from the bottom of the first one, to the middle of the sec- ond, and up to the top of the third. We have in mind a big house, near the gable of which was built a high board fence to break the terrific force of the wind against that big fiat gable. That board fence was braced against the wind, the way we brace our gables. It has always been our contention, that if the green- house gable had been similarly braced; there would Uave been no necessity for the fence. What do you think about it? Vou know we go anywhere for business, or to talk business. General Offices and Factory, ELIZABETH, N. J.

I give you full credit for the way you packed the shipment. That's tlie way to pack plants, and not just slap them in like so many shippers are doing nowadays. Everyone seems to be mighty anxious to sell goods and get the money, but don't give a rap how goods reach the buyer. Enclosed find check for additional order." From Arizona: "Dupl'cate our order of the 24th; did not think shipment could be made this far." "Keceived 400 cyclamen from the east and they can't touch your:" ' "Cyclamen arrived; well pleased with quality and they were packed fine." "Enclosed find check for $:^tiO.0O; eyes arrived in fine shape and we are well pleased with the stock." Not the cheapest that are offered, because quality stock cannot be had cheap.

WERTHEIMER BROTHERS THE NATIONAL FLORAL RIBBON HOUSE Owners and Operator* of WERBRO RIBBON MFG. CO. PATEKSON, N. J. BATH, PA. Office and Salesrooms: 17-25 East 24tli Street, NEW YORK WHO STANDS THE SHIPPING LOSS? Constantly altercations arise between buyer and seller as to who is to blame for mishaps in delivery and who is to sta^id the loss so incurred. Clearer comprehension of the legal view of the relations of the two will obviate many misunderstandings. VERY year there are hun- dreds, perhaps thousands, of controversies between members of tlie florists', seed and nursery trades over shipments made in the normal course of business. The parties involved there- in are reputable — we are not concerned here with any who are not — and make their claims in good faith. This situation is not pe- culiar to this line of business; it is common to every industry. Most of the disputes are needless and result in noth- ing but bad feeling; they have no basis for legal action, for they arc the result of ignorance or misconception of the principles laid down by the law in such matters. Knowl- edge of these legal prin- ciples will aid every florist in the transaction of his business. He will then know when he has basis for complaint and when the responsibility rests with him. He will avoid need- less controversies and con- sequent ill feeling. He will facilitate his own business and maintain amicable rela- tions with those with whom he deals. He will also, per- haps, save the expense of hiring a lawyer to tell him he has no case. A good deal, indeed, may be gained by a knowledge of the legal prin- ciples involved in makin}; shipments and ridding one- self of sonic jirevalent mis- conceptions. Delivery. Perhaps one of the most common misconceptions is that goods shipped by the seller to the buyer are not "delivered" to the buyer until they have arrived at their destination. This is true only where the seller has agreed to deliver them at the t for understanding to the contrary, all sales would be presumed to be on the "cash and carry" basis, whether a retail sale of a plant or a wholesale transaction lietween parties By A. L. H. STREET, Attomey-at-Law. living jn different cities or different countries. To some extent this presumption has been destroyed by trade customs. So the retail florist who maintains no de- livery system and who has not agreed to deliver at the customer 's residence or place of business, is not bound to make delivery at any place other than the store where the goods sold happen to be when sold. But where the florist has led the public generally to suppose that deliveries will be made elsewhere, under- standing that the customer may desig- THE LEGAL VIEW Whether a shipment is an express parcel or a carload of freight, whether it is of plants, bulbs, seeds or trees, the law regarding the responsibility of buyer, seller and carrier is explicit. Its basic principle is: "A delivery of goods by the seller to the carrier des- ignated by the purchaser, is a delivery to the purchaser, the carrier becoming the agent of the buyer. ' Its interpre- tations are equally definite, as explained by a legal writer on this page. trade usage, it will be presumed in the ordinary case to have been understood that the seller would properly pack and ship the goods for the buyer. But now comes the important point to be kept in mind: Ordinarily, the railway company, or other carrier of a shipment, is to be regarded as the rep- resentative of the buyer, and not the representative of the seller. The fol- lowing statement of the law can prob- ably be supported by citation of an apj)ellate court decision in every state in the union: "Ordinarily a delivery of goods by the seller to the carrier designated by the purchaser, or to one usually em- ployed in the transportation of goods from the place of the seller to thac of the purchaser, is a delivery to the purchaser, the carrier becoming the agent of the buyer. The de- livery should be of goods of the proper quality and in the proi)er quantity. The fact that the purchaser has a right of inspection and ap- proval on receipt does not change the rule. Delivery to a carrier is not a de- livery to the buyer if the seller is bound to deliver at the buyer's residence or place of business, the car- rier in such case being the agent of the seller. * * * Law's View. nate any reasonable place within the florist 's usual delivery limits will be in- ferred. Trade Usage. And now it is no longer understood that a buyer of goods to be shipped to him from another point by the seller is to go to the seller's place of business, or send some one there, to get the goods and ship them, although nothing may lla^•e been specifically said concerning dcliverv. In accordance with uiiivcisal "The delivery to carrier must be such a transfer of jiossession as will remove the goods wholly from the dominion of the seller, and such as to entitle the pur- chaser to demand the goods of the carrier; consequently it is not a delivery to the buyer if the seller reserves the right of disposal of the yjoods, by consigning them to his own order, or by tak- ing the bill of lading in his own name ami rotaiiiing the siinie. or making the doli\erv of the bill of lading i-onditi(inal on the payment of the price. It', however, the bill of lading, although taken out in the name of another, is ilulv indorsed and tendered to the buver, the delivery is good." (.35 Cyc. 193".) Thus it will be seen that the ordinary contract for a sale of goods to be shipped direct to the buyer, nothing being said as to where delivery is to be made, is substantially the same thing as a con- tract specifying that delivery is to be 22 The Florists^ Review NOVEMBEB 25, 1920 iii.'mIc 1'. o. b. tlK> sliijipint; jmiiit. lint a coiitiiu-t sitocil'viiifi: ilclivcry 1'. o. b. the sliipijiiifj jioiiit is to lie iiri'fcrreci to one silent as to llie j)lacc of lioliverv, lipcanse it fends to set at rest any chanee (if (jiiil)blo on tlie part of the buyer that lie was entitled to delivery at the des- tination of tlic shipment.

The Kansas 8ui>reine court (h cided the ca.se in the seller's favor, mi the ground that it acted reasonably and in accordance with general custom in agreeing to a reduced valuation to se- cure a lower freight rate. The court, vr marked that there was no doubt about its being the law that "the seller is authorized, in the absence of sjiecial in- structions, to ship according to the usual .and ordinarv method and that he dis charges his duty to the buyer when he does so. " "III this case," added the court, "there is no disjnite that nursery stock is to be sliii>ped at a valuation of .'! cents ])er pound in order to obtain a lower freight rate, under a classification jiermitfing it, unless jiositive instruc- tions to the contrary are given. The seller's authority, therefore, extemls no further than to take a bill of lading of the kind usual to such slii[iment, if con- tracts of that character may lawfully be made. ' ' Same as Initial Carrier. Both reason and law appear to j'ut a -.lii[i])iiig seller on the same plane as an initial carrier who receives a shipment destined to a point on a foreign rail- road. The law in the latter class of cases is .as follows: "The general rule is that, when no special instructions .are given and as- sented to as to routes, the initial carrier may select the route or use that com- monly employed by it to the jioint of destinatijin nanuMl, and liie absence of Npecial instructions given and acceded to amounts to an assent that the car- I'ier 's usual course of business may be followed, and that it may design.ate the route as its convenience may suggest. This provision, b(>ing thus inserted in thi? contract by law, is as unassailable by parol I proof of veibal understandings tending to v.aiy or contradict a. written contract] as any of the express terms of the contract. However, the carrier's right in this regard is not an absolute or inalienable one, and it may be waived or surrendered by .an agreement sub- sequently entered into. "Furthermore, the rule stated in the preceding section is subject to the im- jxirfant limitation that the carrier in selecting the route must have due re- gard to the rights and inturests of the shipper and must exercise its option of selecting a route so that it will not work to the disadvantage of the shipper, un less under circumstances which require it." (10 Corpus Juris, 83, 84. ^ Care Recttiired. Another decision as to an initial car- rier's liability, which seems to be sub- ject to fair application to a shipping seller, is one by the United States Su- preme court, holding that if it is known to a carrier that a shipment will be more liable to loss or injury on one route than on another, he must select the safer route. The same is true of the holding by one of the Texas Courts of Civil Appeals, that although a carrier was entitled to choose the route, it could not choose a route known to be so obstructed that delivery could not be made over it, where another practicable route was open. And it is also true of the court holdings that if the carrier knows that sending the shipment over .'I certain route will cause unusual de- lay, when there is a more direct and (|uicker route, the carrier must obtain authority from the shipper before send- ing over the slower route; and that if the carrier adopts a mode of transporta- tion which involves the payment of a higher rate of freight than another, it may show that it asked for and obtained direction from the shipper or consignee to employ the more expensive mode, or that becau.se of its inability to procure the means of shipment by the cheaper method it was reasonably necessary in view of the exigencies of the case.

Make Membership Mark. At the close of the convention it was announced that the Tennessee State Florists' Association was entitled to a seat on the board of directors of the y. A. V. The necessary (jualitication of the association was a membership of lifty in the national organization. This membership wa.s reached by a special campaign conducted during the conven- tion. The morning of November 17 was devoted almost entirely to speech-mak- ing. The convention was called to or- der at 10:00 a. m. in the Chamber of Commerce building by W.

Adjournment was made at 10:30 to permit the iiisjicction of the flower exhibition, which filled the entire sixth floor of the building. Exhibits were sent in by out-of-town florists, although the Memphis members furnished the majority of the blooms. They also fur- nished display space free to outside mem- bers wishing to enter a display. Roses, chrysanthemums and carnations were much in evidence. All the blooms and plants were loaded into trucks Thursday afternoon, Novem- ber 18, after the exhibition, and dis- tributed as a gift from the association among the various hospitals of Memphis. This act of gQnerosity was much ap- preciated by the public. Banquet. Shortly after 1:00 p. m. the florists assembled for a trip to the greenhouses of Memphis and the city parks. The entire afternoon was spent in this way, and the local greenhouse methods were studied with much interest by visiting florists. Upon their return from the tour of in- spection, the delegates found an appetiz- ing supper awaiting them at the Hotel Chisca. The banquet started at 6:30 and lasted until 8 o'clock. Several hundred guests were present. Music and brief talks by various florists followed and a merry-making party was formed to attend the Orpheum theater. To judge from the expressions of prominent delegates, the convention was the most successful in the history of the association. There was something doing every minute of the time, from the mo- ment the meeting was called to order Thursday morning until the last tired delegate went home Friday night, or perhaps more properly Saturday morn- ing. For their first experience at en- tertaining a convention, the Memphis florists made an excellent showing. ;^A'lAS^'tXSy!AgAlL«^tiS^^gAJL\S/Jl\8^il^JlM?^i^»^^ X COOLING FLOWERS SBraWTtlff^lgrtljfi^ltfi^tiy^tiysfl^^ MECHANICAL BEFBIGEBATION. Safe Medium for Florists. There are several refrigerating me- diums; namely, ammonia, sulphur diox- ide and carbonic gas. On account of its absolute safety, combined with its high efficiency, carbonic gas is the most suitable for the florist. Carbonic anhydride, commonly called carbonic gas, is absolutely neutral to- wards plant life, human life, food prod- ucts and all materials. This same gas is used for carbonating beverages and is used in connection with all soda foun- tains. It is the cheapest refrigerant and is sold in all parts of the world. Carbonic gas is odorless, nonexplosive and noninflammable. It cannot become a source of danger to human, plant or animal life. Unlike other refrigerants, it does not become a menace in time of fire; quite to the contrary, it is a fire extinguisher. Refrigeration is directly the opposite of heating. It is utilized for the absorp- tion of heat. Mechanical refrigeration is the process of reducing or keeping the temperature of a body or substance below the temperature of the atmosphere without the use of ice. In order to re- duce such temperature, it is necessary to employ a medium of lower tempera- ture which will absorb the heat. Not Complicated. To many it may seem tliat mecliuiiical refrigerating ajiparatus is a rather com- plicated combination of macliinery. This, however, is not the case. With a well designed modern equipment there are only two mechanical units neces- sary, the conijiressor and the power unit, which may either l)e electrical or steam driven. The j)laiit consists of compressor, motor and carbonic anhydride conden- ser. The cooling medium is transmitted through the piping coils which are placed in the upper part of the refrigerator anil a i>ortion of these pipe coils are placed in the brine tank, also in tlio upper jiart of tlie refrigerator. The tank of brine maintains tlie temperature when the re- frigerating machinery is not in ojiera- Part of .on ndrirt'ss by F. I,niitPii!Jcli!iiiipr. of KroespIiPlI Itros. Co.. ("Iiicngo, ontitlod.

It will surely be of interest to explain the cycle of operation. Cycle of Operation. The cycle of operation of refrigera- tion is the compression, liquefaction and evaporation of the carbonic anhydride. The refrigerating plant comprises three parts: 1. A compressor in which gas is com- pressed. 2. A condenser in which warm com- pressed gas imparts its heat to cold water and liquefies. 3. Expansion coils in which the liquid carbonic anhydride expands into its original gaseous state, thereby absorb- ing heat and performing the refrigerat- ing work. In order to make the operation con- tinuous, the three parts are connected, the charge of carbonic anhydride origi- nally put into the machine being used over and over, going progressively though the process of comjiression, con- densation and evaporation. Thus only a small quantity of gas is required to replace any losses. Bating of Machines. Refrigerating machines are rated in the tons of refrigeration produced if operated continuously for twenty-four hours. One ton of refrigeration is the amount of cooling produced by the melt- ing of one ton of ice. This is equivalent to 288,000 British thermal units. It is not necessary to operate the compressor in a refrigerating plant twenty-four hours per day, as a com- pressor of good capacity ))erforms the work during a shorter period of time. The power required to operate the compressor varies from approximately one to one and three-fourths horsepower per ton of refrigeration, depending upon the size of compressor, temperature of condenser water and work to be done. Refrigerating machines may be operated by any available power; namely, steam engine, electric motor, gas f^ngine, etc. Usually Less Expensive. Mechanical refrigeration is far more economical than the use of ice. In prac- tically every case where the refrigerat- ing space amounts to 500 cubic feet e adjusted.

We regret to take such action and hope to receive your check by return mail. Personal Calls. You have now, by means f)f state- ments, personal calls and collection let- ters, brought in all accounts except the few which appear to be absolutely bad. The next step is to turn these items over to a professional collector. In selecting such a medium, we believe the best success may be had through the agency that makes collections by per- sonal call. For, after all, the delinquent debtor may be honest. ha\-e good reasons for nonpayment, maybe a just cause for a complaint that could be and should be adjusted (and bear in mind always that a satisfactorily adjusted complaint is one of the best advertisements you can possibly have). A tactful collector, by personal interview, can learn (because he is known as a professional collector, and the debtor knows that it is his business to find out such things) from the honest debtor the reasons for non- payment or the causes for complaint. From the viewpoint of an outside party, and because of his experience in han- dling such problems, he can form a fair opinion of the debtor's inclination or ability to pay, and can pass just judg- ment on the case. If the circumstances appear to warrant an extension of time or an adjustment of the account, by tactful handling of the situation he can satisfy both parties and leave the debtor with a friendly feeling towards you. An old customer retained is better than a new customer obtained. Cumulative value of good will is a valuable asset to any store. But should solicitation by the collec- tor fail to realize the account, then, if the amount justifies the expense of such action, the further steps to be taken may safely be left to the good judgment and discretion of the collection agency. Debtors Are Human. But I would have you always bear in mind this truth: There is a good bit of human nature in all of us, both debtor and creditor. Maybe circumstances are temporarily all against the customer. Being human, he may not want to con- fess his misfortune. And maybe, be- cause he is human and not unlike most of us, he may assume an attitude of in- difference, believing that by so doing he can hide from the public his temporary misfortune. Later on, paying his obli- gations, he believes he has saved himself the embarrassment of having acknowl- edged his insolvency. Isn't that only human nature? If we believe so, we have an opportunity to prove our own greatness. Let him believe that we be- lieve what he would have us believe. Let us practice the Golden Kule.

I also prefer baskets, stands and urns of willow, rather than of crockery. The floor of the store should be of some attractive tile design, which can be easily cleaned, and of the same color as the general scheme of the store decora- tions. The lighting effects in the store should be given careful consideration. Flowers, like jewelry, should have all the light obtainable, but shaded fixtures should be used, so as not to let the light itself be seen. Separate Workroom. Where it is possible, the workroom should be separated from the store, as it is nearly impossible to keep the store clean if bouquets and designs are made up in the store. A clean store and icebox should be a manager's hobby. I think every store should have a maid to do nothing but see that the icebox and floor are kept clean and the fixtures and furniture are dusted and washed regularly. I do not think the office should be on the main floor of the store, where it is possible to have it on an upper floor or in a balcony, where there may be privacy for the bookkeepers. In some convenient but not conspicuous position, an attractive mirror should be placed, so that the customers may use it in pinning on flowers, etc. The workroom should have .ns much daylight as jiossible and should be well lighted artificially, to aid the designer in combining flowers and ribbons. It should also be large enough to afford plenty of room for the workers and the [CdntiiLiud <.n page HO,] November 25, 1920 The Rorists' Review 29 il»A'^»^l«A]l^l«?ytX8«l^iyW[^l^lVSiil^LVSiJ:^lX^ ^ BEST FOR BEDDING ^ r*\ir«vir!rsvir/s\ir^iysvi!ysvir«vir?»ir«rir«\ihrr*^ir?w BEDDING BOSES FOB SOUTH. Tests of Twenty-Five Years. During the last twenty-five years I have tested more than 2,000 varieties of bedding roses in the open ground, giv- ing only a minimum amount of care and attention to the plants, endeavoring, as far as possible, to determine the value of each variety under conditions which the rose usually finds in the gardens throughout the country, where they are made to struggle, in most instances, for their very existence. The bedding rose which I have in view is one that does well on its own roots. It is a gross feeder, vigorous in growth, with foliage resistant to the greatest de- gree to the attacks of fungous diseases and other ills. It is prolific in bloom, constant under the most trying condi- tions, producing well formed buds and open flowers of good substance which stand up well when used for house dec- oration. Object of List. I shall, no doubt, be criticized for the list of bedding roses I am giving you, because I am leaving out many of your favorites, as well as many varieties which I am sure would add materially to any list if grown by skilled hands, but I have in mind rather the small buyer who loves the rose because it is chaste and beautiful and who has little time from the drudgery of everyday life to care for its needs. Under adverse conditions only the vigorous, robust rose will give a semblance of its real worth and beauty. Lack of knowledge in plant culture, sentiment and sympathy has been the process by which many roses have met an untimely end. Owing to the great diversity of soil and climatic conditions throughout the country, the list I have prepared is suited only to localities similar to the one in which I live. I would not under- take to offer a list that would prove sat- isfying elsewhere, as each section of the country offers obstacles in growing suc- cessfully many of the varieties that are reliable in favored localities. How- ever, you will find in my list many va- rieties that are not oversensitive to cli- matic conditions wherever planted in southern sections. Tea Eose Most Satisfactory. As a whole, the tea rose is the most satisfactory family suited to southern conditions. It thrives on its own roots, is robust in growth, floriferous, fragrant, constant in bloom and always depend- able. Next in order I would place the hy- brid teas. When well done, all are beau- tiful, but the majority are slackers when the rub comes, and only the fa- vored few are worthy of extended plant- ing unless grown under equable condi- tions. To the above two groups may be add- ed a few Bourbons, Chinas, hybrid S pnr.pr pntitlcil. "A Tnlk on T!o(UlinR Roaps," prps'MittMl by Snmuol CrowpU. of Rosacrps.

These families not only add variety to extended lists, but many are among our most depend- able bedders. Three Groups. Bedding roses may be divided into three groups, (a) those grown for cut flowers, (b) those grown for massing or mass effect, and (c) those grown for borders, dwarf beds or similar require- ments. Further divisions should be made, especially with varieties used for massing. Some of the most dependable varieties are unequal in growth, i. e., Duchesse de Brabant is a strong grower, while Grass an Teplitz is only moderate in growth. It is needless to say that for mass planting or grouping, the best ef- fect is brought about by using only one variety. Never use varieties of unequal NOTICE To those -who want things printed in the CHRISTMAS NUMBER Out December 9 Advertisements will be received up to Monday, December 6, but the present size of the paper makes it imperative that we ob- tain the bulk of the " copy " several days earlier. Please Mail Yours Today growth in mixed plantings. If this method is disregarded, within a few years the weaker member will be over- shadowed by those of vigorous growth and will soon become diseased and die. I have found the following list to be dependable under the trying extremes that we have in this section: TEA ROSES. Cut flowpr varietlps. William R. Smitli. salmon and rose-pink. Maman Cochet. liffht pink, shaded with salmon. White Cochet, creamy white, faintly tinged with blush. Helen Good, delicate yellow, suffused with pink, each petal edged deeper. Mrs. BenJ. R.

Burbank. clierr.v rose. Hybrid remontants include a splendid list of varieties which are prolific spring bloomers, but unless careful and con- stant attention is given to pruning, the fall crop of blooms is limited. Those varieties which are usually termed ever- bloomers are usu.tHv poor growers and 30 The Florists^ Review NOVBHBBB 25, 1920 are poor contenders for admiration when compared with the excellent varieties found in other groups. The bQgt va- rieties are: I'aul Neyron, deep rose. Frau Karl DruHChki, pure white. His Majesty, dark crimson. Other desirable varieties are Captain Hayward, Ulrich Brunner, Anna de Diesbach, Duchess of Sutherland, Mrs. Cornelius West, Hugh Dickson, George Dickson and John Hopper. Eugosas and hybrids, for strictly bed- ding roses where show of foliage and flower is desired, meet the requirements, especially those varieties having the typical rugosa foliage. They should be pruned closely each season. Bansa, double red. Blanc de Coubert, seml-doiible pure white. Belle PoUevlne, semi-double piuk with rosy reflex. Dellcata, bright shining pink. Magniflca, deep lustrous red. Atropurpurea, single deep maroon. > Rubra, single pink. Alba, single white. Conrad F. Meyer, Nova Zembla, Sir T. Lipton and New Century are magnifi- cent varieties which thrive under trying conditions, and may be used to advan- tage where other desirable varieties would fail. The hardy, constant-blooming group called baby roses will thrive under al- most any condition or in any position where good drainage is given. The only defect that the majority of varieties have is a tendency to mildew and black spot. It seems to be the only group of roses that will bloom without foliage. They seem to require only moisture and proper temperature to give their mass of miniature blooms, which when well done are showy and effective. Of those varieties true to type, I have found the following to be the most desirable: Orleans, deep gernuium pink, base of petals white. Mme. Levavasseiir, the original crimson baby rambler. Catherine Zeimet, pure double white flowers. The following are desirable, as they produce an abundance of miniature buds that are excellent for cutting: Mile. Ceoile Bninner, blush, sliaded salmon- pink. White Cecile Brunner, pure white. Perle d'Or, nanke,>n yellow. In addition to the above varieties, Clothilde Soupert must bo added. No rose of its color will surpass this va- riety as a beddor or where mass effect is desired. It is dependable, effective and will stand the acid test. For Small Garden. The above list covers the varieties that came to mind when I was asked to talk on bedding roses. It is a list which could be used to advantage in extended plantings, but for the small garden that could use only a limited number of varieties, I would select the following from all the groups noted above: Cut Flowor Varieties.

In the first text of the quarantine cut flowers were included with plants from greenhouses in being barred from shipment, except with a certificate of inspection, the year around. The revised section of the quarantine. No. 48, as issued by Acting Secretary of Agriculture E. D. Ball November 17, reads as follows: Regulation 4. Regulation of Movement of Plants and Plant Products and Other Articles Under Quarantine Originating in Infested Areas. (1) Farm, garden and orchard products of all kinds, including fresh or perishable crops, such as green com, tomatoes, beans, peas, cantaloupes, watermelons, grapes, raspberries, blackberries, cherries, peaches, apples and all other fresh fruits and vegetables; (2) grain and forage crops of all kinds; (3) nursery, ornamental and greenhouse stock and all other plants, including bulbs and cut flowers; and (4) soil, compost and manure other than fresh manure shall not be moved or allowed to be moved interstate to any point out- side the infested area quarantined for the Japan- ese beetle unless and until such articles have been Inspected by the United States Department of Agriculture and certified to be free from the Japanese beetle. Provided, That in the case of nursery, ornamental and greenhouse stock, bulbs and all other plants except cut flowers, this quar- antine and regulations shall apply throughout the year; in the case of cut flowers and all other products, for the period between June 15 and November 1. In the original quarantine the last clause read as follows: Provided, That In the case of nursery, orna- mental and greenhouse stock, and all other plants, including bulbs and rut Howers, this quarantine and regulation shall apply through- out the year: in the case of all otlier products, for the period between June 15 and November 1. BRAMPTON, ONT. The Maxket. The winter season has opened in fine style, November business showing a considerable increase over last year. The cold weather has been long in coming, but although a certain slackness has been felt during the last fortnight by florists generally throughout the Do- minion, owing to the weather having brought in a glut of stock at a period when all other markets were supposed to be weak, the air has since cleared and it is felt that there are no reasonable grounds for apprehension regarding the prospects for the season just begun. The most important question for the next few weeks will be concerned with the problem of supply during the holi- day season, the demand for all lines of stock being greater than ever this year. Various Notes. The coal situation has improved con- siderably in the course of the last few weeks and, although some of the florists have been unfortunate enough to have to pay profiteering rates for their sup- ply, they will find it less diflScult to furnish an explanation to their Christ- mas patrons when the question of prices comes up. The large heating section at the Dale Estate is at last completed and firing began on Thursday, November 18. This new plant has been erected at a great expense and under the most disagree- able conditions that could have possibly prevailed. It has taken over eighteen months to accomplish this work, but as it means the linking up of the various greenhouses, covering an area of twenty- six acres, it is hoped that there will be considerable saving in coal and labor. The wages of the workingman have undergone a change within the last few weeks, the rate per hour having been reduced from 50 cents to 40 cents. This is general throughout the country. At the Dale Estate, the new oflS.ce8 and a large addition to the cellar are nearing completion and things are well under way to enable this firm to cope with the busiest season ever experienced in the florists' trade. Among recent visitors were E. G. Hill, Richmond, Ind.; C. Lee, Montreal, and A. Tomlinson, Guelph. W. G. Peacock returned this week from a successful trip to Montreal, Que- bec and Ottawa in the interests of the Dale Estate. W. G. P. FLOWEB SHOP ABBANGEMENT. [Concluded from page 28.] shipping clerk. There should be coun- ters provided for the wirers and bins built for made-up shipping boxes, so that they may be had at a moment's notice. Storage Booms. I have divided my second floor into different rooms. I have a ribbon room, where all the ribbon, tulle, chiffon, etc., is stored. The stock is kept in glass cases on, shelves, so that one can readily see just what stock is on hand. I have another room where all the baskets, tumbler vases, etc., are kept. Another one we call the glass room, where flower bowls, small glass vases, bud vases and novelty -glassware are kept. Another room we use for keeping general sup- plies, such as toothpicks, twine and match sticks. On the next landing I store all ship- ping and cut flower boxes. There is a separate bin to hold each size that we use, both in corrugated and cut flower boxes. At the front of this floor, where there is ample light space, is our wire shop. I have my arrangements on the top floor similar to the workroom floor. This is given over to the decorators. They have one room where all of the decora- tive materials, such as electrical fixtures, candelabra, tall vases, urns for church work, lattice paneling, Japanese umbrel- las and lanterns and all this class of articles, are stored. We have a separate room on this floor which we call the carpenter shop, where all the painting of baskets, making of birch boxes and work of this nature is done. Besponsibillty. All of these separate rooms through- out the building are under lock and key. The decorators are responsible for the decorating rooms. They see to it that the different articles are stored properly in their respective places. The wire man has his own key and is respon- sible for the wire room. A general stockkeeper looks after the other rooms, keeping them locked at all times, and deals out the different articles as they may be needed. I hold him responsible for the stock in these different rooms. The basement of our store is used as a stock room for the made-up wirework, heavy decorative materials, iron stands and goods of this character. Hutchinson, Kan. — The Smith Flower Shop has been thoroughly redecorated. The color scheme throughout is gray. French doors have been installed in the entrances to the show windows. NOVKMBEB 26. 1920 The Florists^ Review 31 ^ lOWANS ACTIVE ^ rff^ffiy^iigriBy^wy^WJT^i?^^ MID-WEST FLORISTS MEET. WASHINGTON, D. C. Growers Organize. A meeting called by J. S. Wilson, Sr., of Des Moines, la., a director of the National Flower Growers' Association, was held at the store of J. F. Wilcox & Sons, Council Bluflfs, la., Wednesday, November 17. The growers of Iowa, Nebraska and Missouri were privileged to hear Secretary J. F. Ammann, of the National Flower Growers' Association, outline the purpose and aims of the asso- ciation in an interesting and instructive talk. At the conclusion of the talk and the reading of the constitution and by- laws a short discussion was held, after nivShich twentyj-seyen \ applications Jfor membership were received. The con- stitution and by-laws were approved and the name Mid-west District of the Na- tional Flower Growers' Association was adopted. The following officers and directors were elected: President, J. S. Wilson, Sr., Des Moines, la.; vice-presidents, Irwin Frey, Lincoln, Neb., and F. X. Stuppy, St. Joseph, Mo.; directors, Glenn Wilcox and F. L. Lainson, Council Bluffs, la.; J. Aldous, Iowa City, la.; I. O. Kemble, Marshalltown, la.; G. A. Fos- berg, Sioux City, la., and J. J. Hess, Omaha, Neb. The board was authorized to name delegates to the national con- vention. At a meeting of the directors, James L. Denmead, Marshalltown, la., was ap- pointed secretary and Glenn Wilcox, Council Bluffs, la., was appointed treas- urer. The secretary is going to put on an active campaign at once for additional members. The meeting was an enthusi- astic one and the outlook is bright for a large and active membership. The secretary will act until after the na- tional convention, when the district ex- pects to employ a secretary. J. F. Ammann was elected an honorary member of the district association. Iowa Society Meets. Tuesday, November 16, at Council Bluffs, la., during the annual exposition of the Mid-West Horticultural Society, the attending florists of Iowa were en- tertained at a dinner given by J. F. Wilcox & Sons, at the Grand hotel. A business meeting of the Society of Iowa Florists was held during the evening and the following olficers were elected for the coming year: President, Blaine Wilcox, Council Bluflfs; vice-president, J. S. Wilson, Sr., Des Moines; secretary and treasurer, James L. Denmead, Mar- shalltown. It was the sense of the meeting that the society endeavor to raise funds to employ a secretary and that the secre- tary of the Mid-west Horticultural So- ciety be asked to accept the office and carry on the work in connection with his other duties. Twenty-five members paid their dues, and the secretary will put on a cam- paign for more members. The Market. The weather was dark and unfavor- able last week, and a shortage of all varieties of stock was felt during the last few days. The conditions which resulted formed a peculiar contrast witli the previous week, when almost every seasonable variety of stock was avail- able at low prices. There was a large increase in out-of-town orders, but it was hard to get sufficient stock to fill them. From all indications, this short- age will be felt for some time, as the dark, rainy weather continues. Various Notes. Z. D. Blackistone has added a new Dodge car to his delivery service. .Tacob Minder's greenhouses were robbed last week. The thieves took a large quantity of fine chrysanthemums. Thomas Kirk, of the Oehmler Floral Co., was out of town on business several days last week. George Dahlglish is now with the Dun- bar Floral Co. John Sharper is cutting some fine Bonnaflfons. Fred Leapley is known as the "union florist" throughout this city. Mr. Leapley conducted the first strictly union shop in Washington, D. C. William F.

Hope you had a good Thanksgiving. Advance orders indicated a better Thanksgiving business than usual in most markets. Some small ranges are more profitable than large ones, because their owners are expert at utilizing every foot of bench space. The requisites for success are ability to do something well and doing it. The second is as important as the first and more often lacking. Giganteum bulbs which are to be flow- ered for Easter, which is March 27 in 1921, should be planted not later than the first week in December. A GOOD many people, florists and pub- lishers among others, have not realized how easy it has been to get business in the last two years. It may be different during the next few months. The sur- vival of the fittest may be among the old laws which are about to function again. The trade may not soon again be so ready to buy large quantities of Holland bulbs at high prices, but there is little probability that anyone who forces his 1920 purchases for his own retail trade will fail to make money. The florist who grows and retails in a small city is the most independent man on earth. A straw shows the wind. Bradstreet's reports 307 failures in the United States for last week, against 211 for the previous week, and 110, 132, 238, 303 for the cor- responding weeks of 1919 to 1916. About 69.7 per cent of the total number of concerns failing had $5,000 capital or less, and 16.6 per cent had from $5,000 to $20,000 capital. "We send today a few flowers for the editor's desk" has become a frequent message in the mails and with it Novem- ber 22 came a half-dozen perfect blooms of Baur & Steinkamp's new chrysanthe- mum, Thanksgiving Pink, so named be- cause of the season at which it is ready to cut. It is an unusually large, well formed flower, deep pink in color, and has been commented favorably on by everyone who lias visited the offices of The Review this week. It will be generally tried, once it is on the market. It is said that one eastern concern has acquired all the cocoanut fiber in sight and doubled the price. Near the large cities common labor is being obtained for greenhouse work at approximately half its cost six months ago. The November issue of the S. A. F. Journal, reduced to thirty-two pages this month, is filled chiefly with reports of state vice-presidents, which are mainly concerned with local fuel problems of last winter. Some sellers report the retail florists as being heavily stocked with Christmas goods, bought earlier and more freely than ever before, with present demand negligible, but it seems quite probable it is only the lull before the storm. The price of chiffon is what the sales- men call "shot to pieces," but none of the retailers is buying except for immedi- ate needs; they are doing as almost always is done in a broken market, wait- ing for prices to go still lower, although there is greater probability they will re- bound. The editor's desk has been decorated for several days with a vase of seedling chrysanthemums from W. F. Richter, Cull- man, Ala. There were two varieties, of his own raising, a cream-colored semi- double and a snow-white variety almost like a cactus dahlia. Mr. Richter wrote that he has twenty-five plants of one and ten of the other, in their second year. A DOZEN HXTNDBED. This week The Review pays to readers its twelve-hundredth visit — that is, to those of its present readers who were among the subscribers to its first num- ber, and there are a considerable num- ber of them. Those who can remember that first number will note a great change. Most marked is the change in size and appearance. It has occupied twenty-three years — not a lightning transformation, but a steady upward growth wrought by hard work and serv- ice to the trade. The dozen hundred numbers represent a contribution to the trade's progress; and there is satisfac- tion in realizing that The Review's growth has kept pace with that of the trade. NO TIME FOR PESSIMISTS. In the processes of business readjust- ment, some of which seem to have an exceedingly dark gray hue at the mo- ment, florists should not overlook the factors operating, not for today or to- morrow, but for next week and next month. Clearness of mind on this score will save pessimistic thoughts and pro- mote that courageous optimism which is so valuable to any business man just now. The reasons for assuming a cheer- ful view of conditions are cited in the following paragraph from a prominent banker's statement recently: "There is so much in the present sit- uation to inspire confidence and hope for the future that it is little short of criminal for anyone to paint the picture so blackly, through either ignorance or intent, that these vital facts are ob- scured. To cite a few pertinent facts: This country will harvest this j'ear one of the largest crops in its history; its transportation congestion has been re- lieved and its railroad system is for the first time in a decade on a sound finan- cial and operating basis; we have passe through a national election and assure four years of sane administration o; public affairs; our banking system ha withstood the greatest credit strain ii its history and is on a sound and work able basis; the accumulated surplus c five years of splendid prosperity if stored in many ways for our continue(j use; the markets of the world demani' our products and a great mercantik marine is prepared to transport them, this country has not been overbuilt or overextended in any of its underlyino activities, and faces no program of re adjustment along these lines such a.s usually precipitates panic conditions. We are in the soundest financial, indus trial and political condition of any im- portant nation in the world. These are the simple fundamental facts of our business situation, and to consider the present reaction as anything but a teni porary setback from the destruction, in- flation, extravagance and unsound eco- nomic conditions precipitated by the war is simply not to reckon with the truth." HERE'S A CHANCE FOR HELP. Greenhouse owners and nurserymen whose experienced employees have left them for more profitable trades and who have found no apprentices forthcoming to replace them, may find a possible so- lution of the help difficulty in the work of the Federal Board for "Vocational Edu. cation, Division of Rehabilitation, which has offices in the principal cities of the country. The office of district No. 8 is at 14 East Congress street, Chicago. This district office covers the states of Illinois, Michigan and Wisconsin and in the last two weeks has had three applications from returned soldiers wish- ing to obtain positions in the florists' or nursery business. Work in a greenhouse or a nursery is quite beneficial to men who have spent months in hospital wards, have suffered from a slight dose of gas, or are recuperating from shell shock or nervous troubles, and the board expects many applications in the near future by returned soldiers for positions in this kind of work. So systematic are the board's classifications that the employer need not fear that the man he takes on will be too much disabled to do his job. Only certain men with minor dis- abilities will be given positions of this nature, and in every case the man will be able to carry on his duties as well as another. Moreover, in some cases the disabilities might be such that, while able to do greenhouse work, the appli- cant would be unfitted for some other occupations, and hence would be the more likely to remain permanently in his place. Of course, since these men are, for the most part, untrained in the rudi- ments of the profession, the employer would not feel justified in paying high salaries at first, but would in many cases gladly take the applicant as an appren- tice, paying him what he was actually worth. The Federal Board for Voca- tional Education sees to it that each man gets enough, over and above what his employer pays him, to live on. This means that by making a place for a soldier apprentice the employer does not take any burden on his shoulders. He pays the actual value of the apprentice 's labor and the federal board sees that he gets a competency. Nqvember 25, 1920 The Florists^ Review 33 Chaxles J. Bolgiano. Charles J. Bolgiano, president of J. Bolgiano & Son, Baltimore, Md., was found dead in his garage in the rear of his home, 8 Elmhurst road, Eoland Park, Friday morning, November 19, from car- bon monoxide gas poisoning. He was seated in his automobile, the engine of which was running, when found by his son, Charles A. Bolgiano. Gas from the engine of the car caused death, accord- ing to the coroner, who believed that death was accidental. When informed of Mr. Bolgiano 's death, Thomas Kemp, his attorney, said: "Mr. Bolgiano 's death at this time is particularly sad and unfortunate. He had suffered business reverses which precipitated bankruptcy about a month ago, but only November 18, at a meet- ing of the larger creditors, which Mr. Bolgiano and his brother and other members of the family attended, a plan of reorganization was submitted, which was received favorably, and suflScient funds had been pledged by Mr. Bolgi- ano's brother and other relatives to finance the plan and rehabilitate the business. "I attended this meeting with Mr. Bolgiano at the Baltimore Trust Co. and later Mr. Bolgiano came to my office, where we remained until late in the afternoon. Before leaving he made an appointment to call at my office at 10 o'clock Friday morning, to complete preparations for the reorganization. At this time he seemed very cheerful and optimistic. ' ' Members of Mr. Bolgiano 's family said that he had suffered heart attacks recently. He went to his garage to get his car at 6:30 o'clock, and when he did not emerge from the garage his son, thinking that something was wrong with the machine, went to help him. He found the door of the garage closed, and when he opened it, was met by a cloud of dense smoke and gas. He found his father, apparently dead, seat- ed at the steering wheel of the car. Several physicians were hastily sum- moned, but their efforts to revive Mr. Bolgiano proved futile. He is survived by his widow, two sons, Charles Alfred and John Norman Bolgiano, five daughters, Flora E., May, Emily M., Mary Virginia and Charlotte A. Bolgiano, two brothers, Roland and Frank W. Bolgiano, and a sister, Mrs. J. Burch Joyce. Mr. Bolgiano and his brother, Roland Bolgiano, now of Los Angeles, Cal., suc- ceeded their father, the late Joseph H. Bolgiano, in the seed business in 1897. They conducted the business as part- ners until about seven years ago, when Roland's health caused him to resign from the firm. That Mr. Bolgiano was deeply inter- ested in the adjustment of his financial difficulties is shown by the fact that a few days ago, in association with Wil- liam H. Hihm and Morris B. Robinson as incorporators, he obtained a charter for Charles J. Bolgiano, Inc., which was, with the assent of the creditors in the bankruptcy proceedings, hereafter to conduct the seed business under corpo- rate, instead of his personal manage- ment. The authorized capital stock of the corporation was to consist of 1,000 shares of undeclared par value. William Ingle, Waldo Newcomer and Albert D. Graham, who were named by the creditors of the late Mr. Bolgiano as trustees in bankruptcy of his assets and business, applied to Judge Rose for authority to continue this business for the present, in view of a report made by the receivers that, since their appoint- ment a few weeks ago, the business has proved profitable. Mr. Bolgiano was a member of many organizations, among which are the following: Board of Trade, American Seed Trade Association, Society of .American Florists, City Club, Advertis- ing Club, Ancient and Honorable Me- chanical Company of Baltimore, Roland J 'ark Civic League, Merchants and Man- ufacturers Association, Chamber of Commerce of the United States, Auto- mobile Club of Maryland, Thirty-second Degree A. F. and A. M., Mystic Shrine and Knights Templar. Abraham Iralson. Abraham Iralson, one of the veteran retail florists in Chicago, died November 22 at Hahnemann hospital, as the result of an accident which occurred Novem- ber 18. Shortlv after dark on the even- Charles J. Bolgiano. ing of that day Mr. Iralson started to cross Grand boulevard near his store, which is at 356 East Forty-third street, and was struck by a taxicab. He suf- fered such severe injuries about the head and chest that he never fully re- gained consciousness. Mr. Iralson had spent a large part of his life in the vicinity of the spot at which he met his death. He had been in the retail business between Grand boule- vard and the "L" station for over twenty years, first with a place on the south side of the street, which he sold out to permit a venture in the north- west. Returning to the city after an absence of a few years, he sought his old neighborhood, opening his store almost directly across the street from his former store. There he quickly re- gained the personal following that had made him moderately prosperous through life. He was about 50 years of age. A brother, Mose, is a well-known business man in the same south side neighbor- hood in which Mr. Iralson was located. The funeral was held November 24 from the chapel at 936 East Forty- seventh street, with burial at Rosehill. There was a large attendance and many flowers. John Weir. John Weir, of Brooklyn, N. Y., died suddenly while on a New York Central train approaching the One Hundred and Twenty-fifth street station November 22. Since boyhood he had been connected with the business and was active around the store at 324 Fulton street up to Saturday, November 20, despite the 75 or more years of age he carried. For the period of an ordinary lifetime he was around the flower market, making pur- chases of stock, only recently settling down to indoor work. Both he and his brother, Fred, were prominent retailers of Brooklyn. His father, James Weir, a native of Perth, was a pioneer grower of plants in the vicinity of New York. He saw practically the beginning of the florists' business in and around New York and Brooklyn. He is survived by liis wife, a son and a daughter. J. H. P. Henry C. Woltemate, Henry C. Woltemate, Mt. Airy, Phila- delphia, died unexpectedly while asleep Sunday night, November 21. He was the last to survive of three brothers, all of whom achieved the reputation of able florists in the vicinity of Philadelphia. His son, Albert W. Woltemate, had suc- ceeded to the management of his father's greenhouses, at Mt, Airy. An- other son, Gilbert, bought a range at Wyndmoor. CHICAGO. The Market. Last week closed with a two days' spurt of business which left the mar- ket at quitting time November 20 more closely cleaned up than in several months. This was in spite of the re- turn of warm weather, which accel- erated the production of cut flowers. Conditions gave rise to the belief that the trade is in line for its usual winter activity, with a fair amount of stock until after Christmas unless cold weather intervenes. A cold snap always reduces the cuts and, with demand at its present volume, prices are likely to be as erratic as the weather. In certain places there was an in- crease in the rose supply last week, which set the ■ local buyers shopping. There never was greater sameness in the rose supply than this season. Beau- ties have almost ceased to be a factor, although two growers are cutting al- most perfect stock in some quantity. In most cases Premier and Russell are us^d interchangeably and Columbia is in largest supply. Something as yet un- explained has happened to Ophelia, which is neither so plentiful nor so good as lisual at this time of year. Butterfly takp its place. The only red rose is Milady, a variety some growers do much less well than others. There are few white. The supply of chrysanthemums for Thanksgiving is the smallest in years. The early sorts, including pompons, were nearly all cut out before the approach of the feast day began to be felt in the market. But it is said there will be unusually large supplies of mums and pompons after Thanksgiving. The ex- planation is that in recent seasons the late mums were much more profitable than the earlier varieties, with the re- sult that the growers gradually have been shifting over. They say they will be cutting until Christmas. Carnations have not increased in sup- ply as had been expected and it is be- ginning to be believed that last year's t'X]icrifnce is being felt in this depart- 34 The Florists' Review Nofaaott SS.

In spite of last year's high prices, many growers said they lost money because they cut so few flowers and several planted something else this season, principally lettuce. Certain it is that the supply, which started strong, has failed to assume the large propor- tions the favorable growing season had led us to expect. Prices stiffened even before the Thanksgiving orders began to have an influence. Laddie is more abundant than last year and deserves to be classed as the finest carnation ever offered to the public. Paper Whites are plentiful; the price is too high for rapid selling. Lilies have begun to move more freely. The sup- ply of valley is kept nicely adjusted to the demand. Cattleyas are scarce and the price is back where it was put last winter. Violets are not plentiful; there are few locally grown singles this year and New York prices have been better than Chicago prices for the donbles. There are some excellent sweet peas and they sell briskly. Tann, Wholesale Cut Flowers and Supplies 30 E.

Wabash Ave., CHICAGO 40 The Florists^ Review NOVEMBEB 23, 1920 phis last week, for the meeting of the progressive Tennessee State Florists' Association. John Poehlmann, treasurer of Poehl- mann Bros. Co. and manager of the city stores, was there with C. J. Nielsen, one of the supply department salesmen, and a fine exhibit of cut flowers. Mr. Poehl- mann went thence to New Orleans for a couple of days, while Mr. Nielsen went to Burlington, la., to meet his wife, who was with relatives near there. Paul R. Klingsporn spent three days at Memphis in the interest of the Chi- cago Flower Growers' Association, re- turning home to find the pride of the family, 2^ years old, under the care of the doctor. It proved to be only a cold. William A. Hansen, of the Amling Co., spent Monday and Tuesday at the show at Council Bluflfs, Wednesday and Thursdajy at Memphis and Friday at St. Louis. Eric Johnson, manager of the cut flower department of the A. L. Randall Co., also had an exhibit for the sup- ply department. Probably that fact had nothing to do with it, but Mr. John- son returned November 20 suffering with a severe cold. A. Miller and I. Rosnosky repre- sented the A. B. C. Mr. Miller read a paper to the convention. There are those who say it was the best of many good ones. Want an Apprentice? At the meeting of the Commercial Flower Growers of Chicago November 18 a communication from the Federal Board for Vocational Education was read, offering to greenhouse men in this vicinity the opportunity to place slight- ly disabled men at work as apprentices at nominal, if any, wage. The board pays, in the Chicago district, $100 per month to such men, so that they are not dependent upon their earnings and a grower may pay just what he thinks such services are worth. The board's letter read as follows: The Federal Board for Vocational Education, providing training for former gervlce men who haye been disabled. Is desirous of placing men In greenhouses about Chicago. If a man has had any previous experience in this line or seems adapted to it, the Federal Board is anxious to teach him this line of business thoroughly. Em- ployers may pay a person in training whatever they feel he is worth. The board pays a single man in training in Chicago $100 a month; bo he is not dependent on his work for a livelihood.

A handful of the "old faithfuls" made a quorum at the meeting of the Commercial Flower Growers of Chicago at the Hotel Randolph Thursday eve- ning, November 18, but not much more. The cold weather and the nearness of Thanksgiving kept most of the mem- bers home. On this account the impor- tant matters which came up for consid- eration were tabled or held over until the next meeting. The addition of one- eighth of one per cent to the one-half now collected on growers' returns, as a means of paying their dues to the local and national growers' organizations, was tabled until it could be learned whether the national body would take action in revising its schedule of dues at the Washington meeting in January.

A representative of the Federal Hor- ticultural Board visited Chicago import- ers last week to find out how the regu- lations for administering Quarantine No. 37 are working. He stated it to be the desire of the board to make the sys- tem operate as smoothly as possible and that he was sent to receive and con- sider suggestions. All administrative and inspection work has thus far been done at Washington and seaport cities, but it has been suggested that an office be opened at Chicago for the transac- tion of any of the business of the board. "The florists' business is far from being dead yet," said the veteran, Ernst Wienhoeber.

This has been, thus far, one of the best sea- sons in the experience of the E. Wien- hoeber Co. Visitors to the H. N. Bruns valley forcing establishment on the west side note with interest the marked difference between various lots of stock. The ex- planation is that the best stock came from his regular growers near Ham- burg, but that the crop in 1919 was insufficient for the needs of his trade and, to maintain his output, it was nec- essary to force pips obtained from sev- eral other sources, many of which, if not blind, throw spikes which fail to develop. The Bruns distribution of pips extends from ocean to ocean, several growers on the Pacific coast receiving large weekly shipments. Mr. Bruns says his brother at Hamburg took the crops of his regular growers throughout the war, although the pips could not be shipped to America, and did well with them in Germany, and, curiously enough, found Bussia a specially profitable cus- tomer. Steamers with refrigeration service recently resumed fortnightly sailings from Hamburg to New York. The accession of over forty new re- tailers to the membership list of the Allied Florists' Association since au- tumn activity commenced is looked upon by the directors as evidence of the or- ganization's recognized success in the trade.

Sweet peas are slow in progress this month and to that fact George J. Ball attributes their present good prices. The November and December crops are, bo to speak, on the knees of the weather man. There are 2,068 square feet of space in the basement rose department of the E. C. Amling Co. C. J. Michelsen says its capacity is the grading and counting of 10,000 roses per hour. Mr. Michelsen will have nothing to do but work for a month, as his home is quarantined. June has a light case of scarlet fever. The death of Abe Iralson, as the re- sult of an automobile accident, is re- corded in this week's obituary column. C. L. Washburn says he noted with interest the "Open Letter" of J. A. Cannon in The Review of November 11, containing the sentence: "Flowers during the present season are of a poorer quality and higher in price than a year ago. 'The remark leads to the belief," says Mr. Washburn, "that the gentleman does not get his stock from the Chicago market, because flowers here never were better than this year, while prices have not been higher than last autumn, except, per- haps, for mums." The wholesalers are being repeatedly warned that the supply of ferns will not last till spring. The eastern ship- pers have put the price up steadily, "to conserve the stock on hand." F. O. Wildhagen and L. J. Dumwald, of Waterloo, la., have been here this week. From strawberry plants they have advanced to gladioli and have a crop of bulbs to sell this season. They bought a large quantity of planting stock last spring, obtaining it from several sources, and say they have learned that there is a great differ- ence in the health and vitality of the same variety from different growers.

He reports that the passing of the mum season will result in a considerable increase in the calls on this market. Most of the large stores look to Chicago for their better grades of roses. E. Scheffler, Wheaton, only began to cut his crops of pompons for Thanksgiv- ing. He will cut until Christmas. A. J. Zech accounts for last week's boost in the market 's activity by point- ing out that chrysanthemums had be- come pretty well cleaned up everywero within Chicago's shipping radius, with the result that innumerable florists who recently have been using their own mums again came into position to handle Chicago flowers. The increase in busi- ness principally was in shipping. N. J. Wietor points to Little Gem as a white button chrysanthemum ca- pable of traveling with Baby Margaret, yellow. Mike Freres, with Pyfcr & Co., has had an anxious week, Mrs. Freres being in a hospital, ill with pneumonia. She is past the danger point, O. W.

As indicating the magnitude of the operations of Lubliner & Trinz, former florists who now are movie magnates, one of their string of more than a dozen theaters was sold last week, the Vita- graph, for $165,000. The sale does not affect the tenancy of Lubliner & Trinz, who operate the l,000-8eat theater under a fifteen-year lease from September 1, 1914, at a net annual rental of $15,000, the lessee paying all taxes, insurance and upkeep. Their lease also includes the stores and offices in the two-story building. NEW YORK. The Market. With a large number of social func- tions taking place and a series of col- lege football games being played, it might have been expected that the de- mand for flowers would be stimulated.

Everybody is wondering what is the matter with business. Betailers say that prospective customers come into their stores, look around, ask prices and go out again without purchasing. When one notes the light buying for retail needs it is not hard to believe what the retailers say. There is something out of joint, but none can say exactly what. Eoses are not overplentiful, but move slowly. Individual sales are small and indicate hand-to-mouth buying. Ameri- can Beauty is on the short side and the top price has advanced to $100 per hun- dred and even more for selected flowers. Hybrid te»s are of excellent quality, but last week's quotations still apply, there being no change, although prices of the short grades are somewhat firmer.

The supply of carnations has shortened considerably, and prices have advanced in consequence. Saturday the top price was $6 per hundred, running down to $3 for inferior grades. There is still a quantity of short-stemmed stock com- ing in. The demand for cattleyas last week was beyond normal, and with an adequate supply prices moved up to the $2 mark for the best, although $1.50 covered most of the business. A few gardenias are coming in and bring $3 to $5 per dozen, but the quality is poor.

About $6 per dozen is the average top price, with selected flowers of some of the finer varieties bringing as much as $9. These prices, of course, apply to absolutely fresh stock; to remove occa- sional congestion they are materially shaded. Pompons and singles are bring- ing from 35 to 75 cents per bunch. Violets at the close of the week were in short supply, owing to a large de- mand for them arising from the Yale- Harvard football game, and the asking price was $4 per hundred, although actual sales at $2.50 per hundred be- came at the end the rule rather than the exception. The violet supply is likely to be light for a little time, due to weather conditions lately experienced. In miscellaneous flowers there are snap- dragons, calendulas, pansies, bouvardia and sweet peas. Various Notes. A well attended meeting at the Hotel Imperial Monday evening, November 15, marked the rejuvenescence of the Asso- ciated Eetail Florists of New York. The activities among the other trade bodies in this section in the direction of pub- licity for flowers have been the cause of the awakening of this organization. Various members of the organization were responsible for a large number of new members taken into the association at this meeting, and it looks as though the retail trade from now on will have an organization of which it may be proud. G. E. M. Stumpp presided, and Wm. H. Siebrecht, Jr., acted as secre- tary. Ofiicers elected at the meeting were as follows: President, E. J. Hes- sion; vice-president, H. Perry; treas- urer, C. H. Brown. To the president was given power to appoint a secretary. Directors are E. J. Hession, Marshall Clarke, Max Schling, A. T. Bunyard, E. J. McCarthy, G. E. M. Stumpp, Henry Hart, Wm. A. Warendorfif, Wm. A. Phillips and Adolph Meyer. A meeting of the flower show commit- tee was called for Monday, November 22, at the secretary's office, at which arrangements in progress for the exhibi- tion were discussed. To be dead, buried and have one's memory slated for an official memorial while yet alive is the lot of few mortals. r 1 V ■\-v- ■■ *>. r\-*- ■' ' X \ / /^^^ ^^> s.

It was reported at the meeting that Mr. Wright had "cashed in," but it was only as regards his membership in the club, which he regret- fully relinquished for the reason that his field of activity for some time had been outside the sphere of the club.

The Market. The week before Thanksgiving was marked by a scarcity of cut flowers. Cold, on several days stormy, weather has been partly responsible; the almost irresistible and foolish tendency to hold back flowers as a holiday approaches has helped and no special effort has been made to crop for Thanksgiving. Chrys- anthemums are the leading flower. The late varieties, the pompons and the sin- gles are at their best. Prices have been excellent. Other flowers have been in fair rather than good supply. The demand keeps them moving rapidly at prices that are slowly advancing. To Fight Quarantine 37. The horticultural societies of three states, Massachusetts, New York and Pennsylvania, are carrying on a joint campaign against Quarantine No. 37. The idea is to gather together an array of facts that will prove the quarantine to be unwise and to present these each as a case before the Federal Horticul- tural Board, with the object of having the quarantine modified or removed al- together. Each of the horticultural so- cieties has appropriated $2,000 to be used in paying the expenses of gather- ing and compiling the necessary data. It is further proposed to greatly increase the fund of $6,000 by private subscrip- tion, should this be found necessary. The task is so great that much effort will be required and much energy will be needed to carry it through successfully. The Bickmore Greenhouses. It is the ambition of Milton H. Bick- ley to make his place the finest in the country. Beautifully situated at Wal- lingford, in the midst of rolling coun- try, the Bickmore Greenhouses are rap- idly coming to the front. Their spe- cialties are grown in such large quanti- ties as to stagger the ordinary florist even in these days of large figures. For instance, half a million bulbs are to be forced, including narcissi, hyacinths and tulips, and they have lilies all the year around. Carnations are Mr. Bickley's leading specialty, with the idea of mak- ing them as good as can be. Clarence Alwine, famous for his success at Alden, has been placed in charge as manager. Mr. Bickley believes that the carnations in the Bickmore Greenhouses today are the finest that have ever been seen there. The varieties are Matchless, Mrs. C. W. Ward, Benora, Enchantress Su- preme, Belle Washburn (large and per- fect), "Laddie (highly esteemed), and Perfection, a crystal white (new).

E. A J. T. COKELY, 201 North Seventh Avenue, SCRANTON, PA« The majority of flowers sold at $3 to $6 per dozen, with poor ones lower. Pompons, especially bronze and crim- son ones, have sold well of late. Boses are coming in less freely and there is no trouble in cleaning them up at good prices. Short-stemmed stock makes $6 to $10, according to color. The best grades make as high as $25 and some fancy pinks and reds $40. For American Beauty there has been a good call. Carnations have braced up to $8 and $10, Laddie bringing more. Vio- lets at $2 and $3 are not abundant; neither are lilies or callas. Paper Whites are rather a slow sale. Stevia has appeared, but will sell better a lit- tle later. The warm fall has hastened its blooming period. Sweet peas are selling better; so is the comparatively small quantity of miscellaneous flowers arriving. There are still good supplies of cat- tleyas and more cypripediums are com- ing in than a week ago. Valley is scarce and dear. Small lots of gardenias are arriving. An abundance of good cycla- mens, begonias and other flowering plants are coming in, some poinsettias being included. Gardeners' and Florists' Club. In spite of a cold, driving storm of rain and sleet, the first of the season, there was a good attendance at the club meeting November 16, over sixty members being present. The executive committee reported in favor of holding a banquet on or about February 1 and after some discussion they were in- structed to secure figures from various hotels and caterers to present at the December meeting. Communications were read asking support for the Amer- ican Red Cross and inviting club mem- bers to view the great show of winter- flowering begonias in the E. S. Webster greenhouses, at Chestnut Hill." George T. Stewart, of Waltham, was presented with a large and handsome gold medal, awarded by the National Association of Gardeners for meritori- ous new plants, hybrid calceolarias, shown in Boston last May. The pres- entation was made by W. N. Craig, the newly elected president of the associa- tion. Exhibits of the evening included fine plants of Golden Mistletoe and Helen Frick chrysanthemums from Wal- ter H. Golby, a collection of twenty- three seedling chrysanthemums raised from Mrs. Filkins and nine other seed- lings from A. E. T.

The election will be held December 21. Andrew Christensen was the first speaker of the evening and entertained the members in his inimitable way for about forty minutes as he graphically described his recent tour through the war zone of northern France, including the Ghemin des Dames, Soissons, Eheims, Belleau Woods, Chateau Thier- ry, Meaux and other places hallowed for all time in history. He spoke feelingly of the magnificent avenues of trees, once so majestic, now standing torn and stark after their terrific shelling. In some of the large dugouts he found fine crops of mushrooms growing. In the cultivated fields, wheat, sugar beets, mangels and alfalfa were producing splendid crops. In the heart of the war zone he found one most interesting small florist's place walled in with trained fruit trees, in which heliotropes, fuchsias, veronicas and other plants showed loving care. The various cemeteries were carefully inspected and all showed excellent care. Paris itself seemed the same as when he visited it ten years earlier, and had ho not visited the war zone and seen the awful destruction wreaked by the Germans, it would have been hard to believe that such a terrible war had been fought. Captain George C. Moyse, of the New England branch of the National Flower Growers' Association, spoke on the new association and the work it aimed to accomplish. He found his work as or- ganizing secretary interesting. He had been surprised to find how growers who were in the same towns were opposed to each other and how much cooperation was needed. There was far too much price-euttinfj on all hands. When any- one grew the best every effort should be made to soil it to the best possible advantage. The new association wanted to create a greater demand by putting the growers before the public through a publicity campaign. National coop- erative purchasing was a necessity as well as selling. Captain Moyse, who is a fluent and interesting speaker, spoke on some of his war experiences. He was the first national guard ofiicer of the 105th In- fantry to set foot on French soil. Only seven out of 250 of his men went through the war without being killed NEW CROP NOW READY WILD SMILAX CALDWELL'S CELEBRATED BRAND Orders Filled on Receipt, $3.00 per Case Natunl Nms, $1.7S per bag.

He had on exhibition a large collection of souvenirs secured, in the way of gas masks, buUets, guns, etc., which proved interesting. Bousing votes of thanks to the speakers closed a pleas- ant evening. Vaxions Notes. Among visitors last week was J. A. Brown, of the Brown Bulb Banch, Cap- itola, Cal. Mr. Brown made an ex- tended European trip and secured large quantities of Iris tingitana in France; also I. filifolia, hispanica, etc., to plant on his bulb farm. He is a large grower of freesias, gladioli and other bulbs and hopes to achieve success in the genial California climate with the various forcing irises. E. F. Gorney, secretary of the Boston Florists' Association, has received many letters from local hospitals expressing appreciation for the generous donations of flowers and plants made on Armistice day, November 11, when, through the efforts of members of the association, some twenty-five automobiles carried good cheer to a host of patients. This excellent work will, it is hoped, be con- tinued and be emulated in many other cities in future years. At the store of R. & J. Farquhar Co., on South Market street, bulb business has been extra good and nearly all sorts are now cleared out. A fine lot of flowering plants, including chrysanthe- mums, cyclamens, begonias and ericas, is carried. Anderson Bros., of Woburn, are cut- ting heavily of pompon mums for Thanksgiving trade. They have all the newest varieties, but Western King, pink, seems especially popular. They are still cutting a fine crop of asters under glass and these sell well, even in competition with mums. Welch Bros. Co. is receiving excellent American Beauty roses and a fine line of new varieties. Patrick Welch, while somewhat uncertain about the volume of Thanksgiving trade, is of the opin- ion that we are now running into a period when flowers will be decidedly scarce. The combined agricultural interests of Massachusetts are planning to hold an- other big union meeting in Horticultural hall, Boston, in January, and a prelim- inary meeting to make arrangements was held at the State House November Sphagnum Moss 10 bales $1.50 per bale 25 to 30 bales 1.35 per bale 60 bales 1.26 per bale STANDARD SIZE BALES Order Now and Save Money C.

Mums are showing signs of diminution. Roses have not reached their stride as yet; while there are plenty for the pres- ent demand, when mums arc out of the way there may be a shortage. However, the growers are hurrying the rose erop as much as possible and, if there is a suf- ficient miscellaneous stock, the market should go along smoothly. The heavy demand in roses is for short-stemmed stock, indicating that there is a quite large funeral business being done. Long- stemmed roses are a little draggj-; this is owing to mums still being plentiful. Carnations are not in large supply, but. as with roses, there are enough for pres- ent requirements. There is going to be a fine supply of all the best varieties of carnations this winter. Stevia has made its appearance and, as it works in well for funeral work, it sells well. Bou- vardia is one of the old-time flowers that seems to.be coming back; a house of bouvai-dia should pay any grower well, for it can be used almost anywliere. Humboldtii is as fine a finish in a funeral offering as anything one could use. Vio- lets are scarce, few doubles being yet on the market. Orchids are scarce and the demand for them is light. Tlierc are a few Paper Whites to be had, Viut not any great supply. Easter lilies are here in a limited supply. In fact, every- thing, aside from mums, under normal conditions would be scarce. Prices are good, however, and the market, though a short one, cleans up fairly well. Various Notes. The first Monday cotillon is scheduled nOIKTON.TlXAS.

B, TORONTO, ONT. Flower EUiow. November 10 to 12 an excellent flower show was staged by the Toronto Horti- cultural Society, in which many growers took part. The attendanee was fair, but it cannot be said that the show was a decided gnoeesB or that the flowers were shown to advantage, mixed as they were with honey, potatoes and apples. Both florists and gardeners have decid- ed that in fnture an eiclnsive flower show will be held in Toronto. The show was opened by the govemoT-genwal, the Dnke of Devonshire, assisted by Lientenant-Governor Clark, of Toronto, and the Hon. Mr. Raney. The Dale Estate had a good exhibit in many classes and other winners were H. G. Dlllemuth, Thomas Manton, J. S. Wilson, William Jay & Son and A. Sher- idan. In twenty-four classes there was only one entry. In fact, the Dale Es- tate had no competition, though the stock was such as to win first prizes in any show and the firm is to be oongrat- nlated on its showing. The flowers which were shown were good and those from the greenhouses of JOUET FLORAL CO. 507^iasr JOLIET.Hi. AD points in Wai C*. ani ViiUty CENTRALIA, ILL. J. w. ROSS i^sj: tyrsa fleld, 8«Mer.

It is hoped that at an early date he will re- turn and give the association one of his illustrated lectures on rose growing. He made a short address, pointing out the need of cultivating new varieties and studying the papers to follow what was being done in the different countries in plant culture. He asked the members to support the botanical garden scheme and promote flower shows. In other coun- tries where real flower shows are run, the attendance reaches as high as half a million, and this only to see rose seed- lings. Varlons Notes. General business is good.

Columbia, Russell, Ophelia, Sunburst, Milady, Premier and Dunlop are the varieties most in evi- dence. Carnations are making rapid im- provement and some good stock was seen last week. A few callaa, Easter lilies and calendulas are coming in. With stock 80 plentiful, there should be excel- lent Thanksgiving business. In potted plants the sale is a little slow yet, although there are some fine plants in chrysanthemums, cyclamens, primulas and begonias. Duluth has experienced one of the best autumn seasons in many years. The bulb trade has been exceptionally good. The call for poppies for Armistice day was greater than last year. Various Notes. .1.

They have had enough stock to take care of orders and no surplus. With the retailers orders have been heavy almost every day. The feeling prevailed that Thanksgiving was going to be a big day and that from then on the season would be active. The mum situation is satisfactory.

Business was jjood duriiij; tin/ week before Thauksgivinj^, witli almost every thing in cut tlowers a little scarce. Ciir nations are perha]is the hea\iest in suji- ply. Prices remain the same, $4 to $G. Roses arc excellent in quality, but bare- ly meet the domaiul. ('liadwicks are about all that are left in chrysanthe- mums and the pompons are fjoinj? fast. Sweet peas are arriving in greater quan- tities and better quality, but are still short of the demand. Mum plants are gone. There are plenty of fine begonias and cyclamens to he had, as well as Boston ferns. Various Notes. Fred C. Schumann is bringing in sonic nice sweet peas and calendulas. The Elitch Gardens Co. is cutting some fine Yellow Chadwiek. The Central Flower Shop last week had an attractive window display of large vases of carnations set off by Bos- ton ferns and small baskets of sweet peas. Many out-of-town florists were visitors last week. Among them were Waldemar Fleischer, of Pueblo; Carl Espelin, of Fort Collins; Mr. Hansen and Mr. Erick son, of Hansen & Erickson. Greeley, Colo., and Afrs. Ed. Hemphill, of Syd ney. Neb. ^- ^^- ^■ INDIANAPOLIS. IND The Market. The chrvsantheniuni sea.son is in its decline. Some good varieties still re main, but most of them are gone. In the large tvi)es there are still Whitlicr, Seidewitz, Chadwiek and a few Turner. Of the ponii)ons. Wilcox is a favorite. Roses are scarce and prices have re- inaincd almost stationary. In spite ot the mums, roses have been in good de niand and all axailable have been sell ing readilv. With the decreiiM' in tli. quantity ot .hrysanthemuins, i-arnations are now resuming their place of prominence in the market. The quality h;is been good this fall and the price of goo,l stock has remained all season at about $4. With the increasing demand, they have risen in price from .fo to $8 per hundred. Some good Laddie has been coming into the market at $8 per hundred. A few calla lilies have been putting in an appearance an.l are welcome addi- tions.

The Market. The market in general seeniH to have inproved during the last week. There ■s a steady increase in business and all Kinds of stock are cleaning up. Mums in this market are still holding their own, both in price and quality of stock. The new crop of carnations is in now, and, though short of stem, is of good quality. Violets are good, owing to the previous rains, which are essential for tjood violets. Winter peas are a little more plentiful, but are bringing good prices. The first Paper White narcissi in the market last week, though early, wore never better. Roses seem to be scarce, because all the rose growers are cropping for Christmas. Various Notes. The E. C. Amling Co. is bringing in some fine valley and cleaning up every day. Walter Garbett, manager, said business was fine, and he was at that rime superintending a shipment of 100 dozen mums. Fred Burki, president of the Pittsburgh Cut Flower Co., Pitta- burgh, Pa., was in this office and with him was T. P. Langhans, secretary of the company, who came out to Los An- geles to talk over business, as Mr. Burki is a permanent resident here. E. H. Yolkman was all smiles the morning the writer made his visit and no wonder, for a 9-pound baby boy had .irrived at his homo! "Mother and haby doing fine," he said, as he handed out cigars to everyone he met. The regular meeting of the Florists' < 'lub of Los Angeles was held at the ' 'hristopher cafe, with a good attend- .•ince. The members sat down to a nice spread of good eats at 6:30 p. m. Presi- ilent Walter Armacost called the meet- ing to order about S p. m. A. F. Borden, secretary, gave an interesting talk con- cerning his trip to the F. T. 1). conven- tion. Before tlie meeting adjourned a special meeting was called for Friday, Xovember 19, at the same place. After a steak dinner, some special business was to be discussed. fleorge J. Ball & Co. report good, -steady shipping )>usiness. especially in rmnns and roses. !S. Murata & Co. are always busy and it seems to be on account of the in- crease in shipping. Los Angeles Floral Co. is handling large quantities of stock at present and ihe way this firm cleans up overy night shows good business. The buyer for Walter Armacost & < 'o. was busy on the market last week .Mud his activities helped to clean up the -:tock. r. C. Miller, of the California Floral < 'o., was proudly introducing his new wife. Barling's Shojt has added another em- ployee to the staff in T. Vogel, formerly "if Wright's Flower Shop. John Gordon, the manager, roports business good so far this month. The store of Wolfskiils' & Morris • toldenson was filled with funeral work -even the floor was piled with it. This firm is making a wonderful display of cut flowers and plants in its windows. Fred Bostal, of the Dostal-Wolters Flower Shop, was more than satisfied with business and expects big things for the holiday season. From the amount of work the Broad- way Florists turn out in a day, one would think it was made by machinery, but a visit to the store will explain. There one finds fifteen or twenty work- ers as busy as a swarm of bees. The Alexandria Florist, in the Alex- andria hotel, is making fine window dis- plays and credit is due George Eschen, the manager. SAN FRANCISCO, CAL. The Maxket. A generous precipitation of rain proved untimely for the California grow- ers and shippers of chrysanthemums, rendering stock of the large-flowering varieties suitable for long - distance Thanksgiving orders scarce. The lim ited number of first-class blooms natural- ly are held at high prices. As far as shipping business is concerned, it looks as if the season were about over for mums this year. From now on the large flowers will be practically confined to two varieties — Helen Frick, the large lavender pink, and a limited supply of Appleton. There are still plenty of the smaller mums, however, which will probably be on the market for some little time yet, and an ample supply of second-grade large ones, which can be used to fairly good advantage locally. The rain has been as beneficial to the violets as it was detrimental to the chrysanthemums. There is as fine a crop of violets on hand as was ever known here, and shipments are being made clear to New York, North Carolina and other distant points. The weather of the last week has been ideal for these flowers, the rain being followed by warm weather instead of frost, as usually happens.

Often on bright days we see Mr. Darling, of Darling's Shop, tlying high over our greenhouses. We always wondered what the plant looks like from up there. Having a wife and four children to support, we have always declined his kind offers to take us up— besides, we were afraid. So we had Mr. Darling snap it for us. The above is the result. It shows very well the 15 acres of greens three entire blocks and the spread of glass. But it does not show what is inside. Houses crammed full of good stock — you couldn't find an empty space with a search warrant. And the quality! It makes your mouth water to look at our Roses and blooming plants.

In the center of the room a fountain played, banked by flowers and ferns. Baskets in autumn colorings were the table decorations. Much interest was aroused by the sunken Japanese garden arranged by the Bertrand Flower Shop for a dinner tendered to his golf club by the man- ager of the Palace hotel. The sunken garden, which occupied the center of a large table, represented miniature golf grounds with tiny golf balls. One hun- dred Japanese dwarf trees, seventy-five Boston ferns and a hedge of primulas gave the effect of shrubbery in a gar- den, which included a miniature fish I)ond and an electric fountain. Funeral work has been exceptionally active during the last week, as several prominent San Franciscans have passed away. Joseph 's was busy with four big funerals. Shellgrain & Ritter were busy last week with funeral work. Podesta & Baldocchi report an un- usual number of funerals, which have kept their staff busy, in conjunction with table decorations. The Thomas Floral Co., at the corner of O'Farrell and Jones streets, have found business picking up steadily dur- ing the last two months, especially in funeral work and table decorations. The branch store, at 160.'> Polk street, is proving a highly satisfactory venture. It is under the manajiPinent of D. Thomas, brother of M. Thomas, who is general manager of both ostaMishments. This Polk street store is in a thriving business center. Thanksgiving is adding considerably to the business of the California Floral Co. There is a special demand for red decorations. Potted plants, such as primroses, cyclamens and begonias, are coming in and are selling well for house decoration. The MacRorieMcLaren Co. has an un- usual amount of funeral work. This establishment was visited recently by four members of Meldrum's Floral Shop, Sacramento. They were Fred Moore, manager; Frank Corato, assistant man- ager; II.

The Market. A shorter cut of roses is probably the only notable development to report for last week, so far as stock was concerned, while business ran along as usual. There w^re a few more social decorations, but less funeral work. The local growers are now offering mums in such quantities as to really produce an oversupply on the market, and both wholesale and retail prices have been cut as a tesult. The Japanese growers' crop of mums is at its height. The quality of the mums is everything that could be desired. Columbia is the leading rose. Russell, Premier and Butterfly are also popular and the trade finds it difficult to keep a large enough supply of Brunner roses on hand. The popularity of small cor- sages of Brunner roses and violets is, undoubtedly, the reason for this. A little improvement may be reported in the carnation supply, but there is still too small a cut to care for the trade needs. One large retailer has been drawing on California entirely for the last three weeks. California is also be- ing used as the chief source of the vio- let supply. Orchids are a little more plentiful. Lily of the valley is short and gardenias clean up as fast as offered. Potted offerings prespjit no new- fea- tures. Pompons in small pots are still the newest offering and by virtue of this are probably featured more than any plant outside of ferns. The latter continue to be big sellers, especially those sizes which can be retailed at less than $1.50. Cyclamens are improving in quality, but arc still too high to be pop- ular. Various Notes. Seattle's newest retail flower shop was opened November 1.3 at 325 Pine afreet by Carl Melby and F. A. Allen. While the store is not large, practically the entire front of the shop can be used for display purposes. It has a 16-foot window. White and cream enameled stands are used throughout the shop. The woodwork is entirely in white and light tan has been used on the walls. W. D.

Wholesale Growers and Shippers 35 Saint Anne Street SAN FRANCISCO, CAL. when pink bouvardias and Ophelia roses were combined with green ribbon for the maid of honor's bouquet and the same flowers with lavender ribbon for the matron of honor's. Northwest shippers say that eastern florists are already beginning to express an interest in the supply of cedar ropes and Christmas greens and that from present indications this is to be a pop- ular year for them. Plans are already being laid for handling car-lot shipments of Christmas trees as well. McCoy's, through the aid of the re- cruiting service of the U. S. Marine corps, produced an effective Armistice day window. Crossed rifles were set in the foreground, with white doves perched on them. Broad white ribbons ran to an explanatory card in the rear and varicolored mums were used for a background. The Orphcum Floral Co. is handling large regular shipments of California roses now. This shop also showed sev- eral new varieties of mums from local growers last week. The Hollywood Gardens found the re- cent showing of miniature Japanese gar- dens so popular that another assortment has been produced. Some of the designs were strikingly original. Kenney's Home of Flowers has been showing some nice Kelley Red and Tur- ner mums and reports a growing sale of small mums for corsage uses. H. M. SPOKA.NE, WASH. The Market. Thanksgiving will find the market well supplied with such leading varieties of mums as Bonnafifon, Enguehard, white and yellow Turners and Mensa. Whole- sale prices range from 50 cents per bunch to $4 per dozen for Turner. Re- tail prices will remain the same, as there is plenty of stock to be had. In potted plants there will be an abun- dance of chrysanthemums, cyclamens, primulas and ferns. Roses and carnations will be suflBcient to meet the demand. Bouvardias, forget- me-nots, snapdragons, sweet peas and violets will make up the rest of the supply of cut flowers. Various Notes. Mr. Scott, of Scott Bros., Moscow, Idaho, was a recent visitor to Spokane. The regular meeting of the Florists' Club was held at the Spokane hotel November 8. Mr. Scott was chairman.

Leonard, Chicago, was elected a director of the Wholesale Seedsmen's League, at Detroit, last week. The seed trade looks forward to a good season in 1921. It is the almost unani- mous belief that the trade has ahead of it another long period of profitable busi- ness. W. W. Barnard left Chicago this week for the Pacific coast, where he will spend the winter. He goes first to San Fran- cisco and will motor from there to Los Angeles. Forty-one cases of valley pips ar- rived at New York November 15, on the steamer W. A. Luckenbach, from Ham- burg. They were consigned to Bernard, Judae & Co. Account of the death of Charles J. Bolgiano, president of J. Bolgiano & Son, Baltimore, Md., Friday morning, Novem- ber 18, from gas poisoning, appears in the obituary column on another page of this issue. C. D. Coventry returned to Chicago November 21 from a western trip on be- half of the W. W. Barnard Co., visiting Denver, Salt Lake City and St. Anthony, Idaho, where he spent some time with John T. Wilcox, formerly a salesman for the W. W. Barnard Co. in southern ter- ritory, who now is a seed grower there. VALUE OF THE JAP BULB CROP. In 1918 no lily bulbs came from Ja- pan, shipment having been prohibited by the War Trade Board, then in charge of many of our activities. In that year the plants and bulbs sent from Japan to tlie United States had a value of only $6,690. Early in 1919 the prohibi- tion was removed and practically the en- tire Japanese crop of lily bulbs came to the United States last year. United States Consul General George H. Seid- more, at Yokohama, now makes avail- able tlie record of importations to the United States for 1919. The bulbs ex- ported to this country in 1919 had a vahio of $444,449. MILWAUKEE SEED CO. FIRE. As a result of a disastrous fire Mon- day night, November 15, the Milwaukee Seed Co., Milwaukee, Wis., suffered al- most total loss of its stock and ma- chinery, valued at more than $250,000, according to Edwin L. Rosenberg, presi- dent and treasurer of the firm. This seed company is one of the pioneers in Mil- waukee's seed trade and was founded in 1860 by Mr. Rosenberg's father, Louis Rosenberg. It occupied almost the en- tire building at West Water and Cly- bourn streets, where it has been located for more than forty years. The annual volume of business is estimated at some- thing over $5,000,000. The Milwaukee Seed Co., besides a large export trade, particularly with Great Britain, does the largest business in Wisconsin-grown clo- vers. The vice-president is John C. Law- rence.

CLEVELAND, O. The Market. The week before Thanksgiving started out with a rush, but suddenly Wednes- day, November 17, it let down. Thurs- day it began to pick up again and Saturday was a real clean-up day. The weather probably accounts for the slump. Mums are not so plentiful as they were a week ago, although there are still enough to go around. Pompons have been plentiful in all except yellow and bronze. There are enough roses, but they are all medium or short grades, white being rather scarce. Carnations clean up daily and the demand is greater than the supply. Mignonette, myosotis and yellow daisies are beginning to ap- pear on the market. Various Notes. Miss M. Jackson has taken a position as stenographer at the wholesale store of J, M. Gasser Co. Ij. F.

Predictions are general that the scar- city of nursery stock will be almost as keen in 1921 as it was this season. Some nurserymen will be interested in the opportunity offered them by the Fed- eral Board for Vocational Education to take returned soldiers as apprentices in their establishments, as explained in the article on another page of this issue headed, "Here's a Chance for Help." CALIFORNIA NURSERYMEN. Meet at Pasadena Next Year. Pasadena, Cal., was chosen as the next convention city of the California As- sociation of Nurserymen at the closing session of its convention, reported in a previous issue of The Keview. The last session was Saturday morning, Novem- ber 1.3, and, after a lively debate, Pasa- dena's invitation was accepted. Tho election of oflScers for the coming year was also held at this session and result- ed as follows: President, Roy F. Wil- cox, of Montebello; vice-president, J. W. Barnicott, Newcastle; secretary- treasurer, Henry W. Kruckeberg, Los Angeles. The executive committee is composed of J. D. Meriwether, Ontario; Fred H. Howard, Los Angeles; Max J. Crow, Gilroy, and E. B. Washburn, Pasa- dena. Interesting Addresses. Some interesting addresses given dur- ing the convention included "Fruits that Pay and Some that Don't," by the new vice-president, J. W. Barnicott, who is a director of the Nurserymen's Bud Selection Association, Newcastle, Cal. The subject of bud selection was discussed at length in the various ad- dresses presented before the convention, among the speakers on this subject be- ing Max J. Crow, secretary-treasurer of the Nurserymen's Bud Selection Asso- ciation, Gilroy, Cal., who gave an ac- count of the organization and develop- ment of this association. J. H. Bone- steel, of Kingsburg, and William T. Kirkman, Jr., of Fresno, also spoke on the subject of bud selection. The new president, Roy F. Wilcox, addressed the convention on the sub- ject of "Growing Plants Formerly Im- ported." The subject was an interest- ing one and showed what strides Cali- fornia has made in introducing the cul- ture of foreign plants in home nurseries. Ladies Join Convention. Friday evening, November 12, there was a joint meeting of the association and the ladies' auxiliary, and a most enjoyable evening resulted. Besides some excellent muiical numbers, the fol- lowing addresses were given: "PHrks and Trees as Memorials," by Mrs. W. A. Fitzgerald, of Fresno. "Upsetting Theories," by Mrs. F. E. Cook, of Fresno. "The Home Garden," by Mrs. J. H. Plerson, of Fresno. "The Oarden Hobby," by Johannes Relmers, San Leandro. "To Better Serre the Cnnnlnc Industry," by Mrs. H. C. Merrltt, Jr., TaRim Ranch, Tulare. "Obserratlona on Farming," by Mrs. Robert Hargrave, Maderii. "A Bigger and Finer California," by A. G. Wishon, Fresno. "Botarlan Message to Nursery Craft," by Jer- ome 0. Cross, Fresno. Mrs. W. A. Fitzgerald, vice-president of the California Federation of Wom- an's Clubs, acted as chairman for the evening, which closed with an address of farewell from the retiring president, J. E. Bergtholdt. BLUE SPRUCE FROM SEED. When and how should seeds of blue spruce be planted to insure best results? L. K. F. C— N. Y. Sow early in May in open frames. Prepare a fine compost, free from stones and weeds; make a level surface and water well. Then broadcast the seeds, covering them with soil sifted through a fine screen. Give them a mulch of half-decayed leaves and remove this as the germination of seed starts. Protect the sides and top of frames with fine wire or lath screens to keep out birds and animals. Leave the lath screens on except in showery weather, when they are better removed. These screens should be left on the little seedlings all through the summer. No transplanting should be done the first season. C. W. PAINESVILLE, 0. The local nurseries have been held up for several days by the recent snow storm. The, weather now is moderating and operations are again under way with increased speed.

SALT LAKE CITY, UTAH. The Market. No great change has taken place in the last two weeks. Mums are still plentiful, yellow being the only color to diminish in supply. Prices are a little better than they were last month, Eoses are cleaning up better than in previous weeks. The cut has not been quite so large this week, on account of the dull weather, but the quality is fine and most varieties move well. Columbia, Dunlop and Ophelia have the big call. The carnation cut is increasing and the supply can nearly meet the demand at present. Laddie is scarce at $10 per hundred. Paper Whites are plentiful at $6 per hundred. Sweet peas are beginning to appear and bring a high price. Violet shipments are heavy, the stock being of excellent quality. Orders for Thanksgiving came in fast and, without a doubt, this was the best Thanksgiving the florists ever had. Prices are a trifle higher than last year, but this does not seem to have any ef- fect on the orders. Various Notes. Daniel MacRorie, of the MacRorio- McLareii Co., San Francisco, stopped at Salt Lake City Monday and Tuesday, November ir> and 16, on his way home from the east. Mr. MacRorie was the guest of Robert Miller, of the Miller Floral C(i. He visited the greenhouses at Farmington, Utah. The company's new rose, Wasatch, met with much favor. Charles Soter, of the Walker floral department, who has been ill for the last few months, is able to be around again. Lewis Forber, formerly with Clarke Bros., Portland, Ore., Smith & Fetters, Cleveland, O., and later with moving picture companies in California, has joined the force of the Miller Floral Co. Mr. Coombs, of the Evans Floral Co., is taking a two months' vacation, dur- ing which time he will go to Nevada to look after mining interests. G. J. B.

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 amount 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. NEED HEAT ECONOMY. To Cut Coal Costs. Whether high-pressure steam, low- pressure steam, vacuum, hot water, gravity or forced circulation — no matter what system is used — the heating me- dium has a definite cost value and con- sequently the question of heating your greenhouses is one of the most important factors in the greenhouse business. In the days gone by, many florists were more or less indifferent about the heat losses and boiler losses, but with the increased cost of fuel, it becomes a matter of the greatest importance, and I shall endeavor to point out, briefly, some of the commonplace conditions re- sulting in fuel waste. Many have learned by experience that any kind of boiler or trust-to-luck pip- ing system will not make a practical greenhouse heating system and conse- quently there is a growing and active desire among florists to adopt modern equipment and methods. This is a pro- gressive habit, commendable, business- like and profitable, and it pays. Eliminate Leakage. Air leakage in boiler settings need no longer be tolerated, because the heat losses so incurred may be entirely elim- inated by applying any of the numer- ous compounded cements made for this purpose. Make the boiler walls air-tight and insulate exposed surfaces of your boiler. Proper furnace design and accurate boiler setting dimensions are vitally im- portant, and it is a mistake to consider Ihe masonry work of any boiler simply as a matter of so many bricks and some mortar. We find it pays to engage an experienced boiler masonry contractor for this class of work, and many of the florists for whom we have supplied large high-pressure steam units will verify this statement. Should Bemove Soot. Soot-covered heating surfaces should not be tolerated. When you stop to think that one-sixty-fourth of an inch of soot has the same heat resistance as five-sixty-fourths of an inch of asbestos, it is needless to say that soot should 1)0 removed at frequent intervals. For hot water and low-pressure heat- ing boilers hand-cleaning must be ad- hered to, and for it we recommend the single blade adjustable type cleaner. Make it a rule that the tubes be cleaned down to the surface of the metal every time. High-pressure steam units should I'art of an address by F, I>aiitensclilai;er. of Kroesoliell Bros.

This principle makes the KROESCHELL Poller the most liberal of all in the Oreen- house Boiler buaineas. The great variety of boilers that we make places us in a commanding position.

KROESCHELL BOILERS have no bulky, soot accumu- lating surfaces— you avoid the disagreeable work and trouble indispensable to cleaning boilers with compli- cated and tortuous back and forth passages. The superiority of our boilers has resulted in the removal and abolishment of hundredsof cast iron sectional boilers— in every instance KROESCHELL BOILERS give more heat with the same piping with less fuel.

Mention Tlie Review when you write. not exceeding forty-eight inches in length should be arranged to shake in two sections. Grates forty-eight inches wide and longer than four feet should be arranged to shake in four sections and for large boiler units we recommend shaking grates with rear dump facilities. Pipe lines, connections and valves should be kept thoroughly tight. Heat- distributing pipe lines should be of proper area for the work intended. I shall not attempt to go into details in regard to various pipe sizes and connec- tions and other pipe requirements. There is, at this time, at least one device I wish to point out in connec- tion witli higli-prcssuro steam installa- tions, and that is the advisability of in- stalling stop check valves. When two or more high-pressure steam boilers are connected to a common header, each boiler should be constructed with a stop check valve. As a safety first measure, this is a necessity; in fact, many city and state laws and in- surance requirements demand it. Valves Regulate Steam. Stop and check valves regulate the flow of si cam from boilers and headers, so that in firing each boiler maintains the proper pressure. Should one boiler, owing to incorrect firing, etc., drop in pressure, the stop and check valve will cut out this particular boiler until it reaches the correct pressure. Each boiler must supply its quota of steam and this means increased efficiency. For large cstablishmeiits high-prcs- sure steam and vacuum systems are preferable. For plant growing and veg- etable ranges, hot water is extensively used. Each system has its advantages. There are many vegetable ranges over 500,000 square feet of glass area which are successfully heated by hot water forced circulation. Generally, hot water is advisable for the medium-sized establisliment, except where roses arc grown. There are many large ranges of glass heated by hot water in this country and this accounts for the necessity of big hot water units shown by us at mnny of the national conventions. Of late years the self-contained water tube steam heating unit has come to the front. This type of boiler is most desir- able for ranges requiring boiler capaci- ties of 100 horsepower or less. For largo establishments, the l.jO-horse- power horizontal return tubular boiler is considered the most practical.

As many florists have become more or less interested in the question of fuel oil, and aa it bears somewhat upon the question of greenhouse heating, it may not be amiss to say a few words in re- gard to oil fuel. Oil is the most perfect fuel from an engineering standpoint, with the excep- tion of natural ^as, but unfortunately its supply is distinctly limited. If oil were suflSciently plentiful and cheap and if a constant supply could be guaranteed as a certainty, it would, of course, be an ideal fuel for greenhouse heating. It no doubt will be of interest to many to obtain some data to enable yon to compare the cost of oil fuel with the cost of coal. For a quick calculation of this kind, one may double the price of oil in cents per gallon, and call this dol- lars per ton of coal. In other words, oil at 10 cents per gallon is equivalent to coal at $20 per ton. This method, how- ever, does not include any other cost than the fuel cost, and it does not take into account the labor of handling. OLEN COVE, N. Y. Horticultural Society.

It is clearly your duty to yourself to see that your greenhouses are at all times in "ship-shape" condition. It is very important that they be weather-proof, water-proof and tight as a drum. Permanite will do this for you, saving a good deal of coal that otherwise would be unnecessarily consumed. Permanite will outlast putty three to four times, never hardens, cracks, or peels, but always remains tight, elastic and air-proof. This is what we call ''PERMANITE ASSURANCE." And remember, Mr. Florist, we are the manufacturers of the ORIGINAL LCMS Boiler Setting Cement. Let us show you how to save many a hard earned dollar this Winter on fuel.

The Piltstmrgh market has been fair- ly active, the wholesale houses cleaning up every day, with a shortage of chrys- authemunis and carnations. Eoses are up to the winter standard of quality, but there are not enough of the better varieties. Some good stevias and calendulas are helping out and lilies are more plentiful. Yellow daisies are good, but the stems are still short. Orchids have been scarce and in good demand. Pompon chrysanthe- mums are more popular than ever. Box- wood and ground pine are the active greens, as everyone seems to be calling for his stock now, to avoid the expe- riences of other years. Florists getting boxwood early can put it in a cool, damp place and keep it for months. Business is generally reported good. Among the larger houses a number of weddings helped to increase the volume of business. Various Notes. David Geddis, of the St. Louis Whole- sale Cut Flower Co., St. Louis, was a welcome visitor among his old friends in the trade. The Pittsburgh Cut Flower Co. has added a 1%-ton delivery truck to its fleet of trucks. The slogan, "Say It with Flowers," is conspicuously dis- played on this truck. Notice has been given the florists of Pittsburgh and the surrounding suburbs advising them that the Pittsburgh Re- tail Florists' Association will hold its monthly meeting December 2 at 7 p. m. at the Seventh Avenue hotel. Dinner will be served. The slogan "Say It with Flowers," is going to be displayed extensively along the public highways and in promi- nent places in the vicinity of Pitts- burgh. The Pittsburgh Retail Florists' Association is distributing slogan signs. E. J. McCallum, president of the Mc- Callum Co., has just returned from a hunting trip in Forest county. Some beautiful and artistic window displays have been seen at the stores of Mrs. E. A. Williams, A. W. Smith Co. and McClements Co. H. J. H.

CITY WIRE * IRON WORKS, 48 Kelvin St., Elmwood, Winnipeg, Man. MINNEAPOLIS AND ST. PAUL. The Market. Weather conditions the last week have been fine for November. The tem- perature, a little below freezing at night, is often 5 or 10 degrees higher in the daytime, with more clear weather than usual. Some fine cyclamens are on the mar- ket; also chrysanthemums. Business was not so active as usual early in No- vember, but has increased on account of the football games and the consequent entertaining. Chrysanthemums are later than usual this year in this sec- tion. Fine chrysanthemum shows have been maintained for the last two or three weeks at the Minneapolis and St. Paul park board greenhouses. There was also a smaller one at the University Farm. Association Meeting. The Minnesota State Florists' Asso- ciation met at the Minneapolis park board greenhouses November 18. After inspecting the fine showing of chrysan- themums they retired to the paint shop, where one of the biggest meetings of the year was held. Max Kaiser read an excellent paper about lilies, which brought out considerable discussion. John Sten, of Eed Wing, Minn., was present with some Mrs. W. C. Cook roses. They scored eighty-seven points. Holm & Olson showed some cycla- mens, which scored ninety-five points. The Merriam Park Floral Co. showed a few cyehimen plants, scoring eighty-five points. These exhibits brouglit out in- teresting discussion and added much to the interest of the meeting. Arthur Mosseau, J. Juhl, E. M. Ander- son, Martin Arneson, C. I. Lindskoog, II. F. Baker, Herman Sehoen, G. E. Burse and Ewald Hermes were elected to membership. The next meeting will be held in the West hotel, December 8, when films showing greenhouse construc- tion will be shown by the American Greenhouse Mfg. Co. Grceiiliouso con- struction will be the topic for discus- sion and those who use glass are urged to be present. Various Notes. At the last meeting of the Minne- apolis Florists' Club ofTicers were elected as follows: President, Hugh Will; vice-president, J. F. Kimmy; sec- rotary, H. Philpott. A committee, consisting of C. Eice, R. A. Latham and Anthony Forchas, was appointed to handle the advertising campaign. C. N. Ruedlinger and John Rovick were appointed on the enter- tainment committee, and J. H. Lund- grcn and C. Eice on the club committee. Systematic advertising is to be tried out this year. William Yasatkn, of the State Agri- cultural Society's Greenhouses, has some excellent poinsettins coming in. He has just marketed a fine lot of cyc- liiniens. Joseph Marks, of A. Henderson & Co., Cliicago, was in town Novomber IS. O. J. Olson enjoyed a few days' hunt- ing trip in Canada, the middle of No- vember. L.

This is our standard design for houses 69 to 70 feet wide. King wide houses are noted for the accurate fit of the steel framing members. Our customer writes: ''Everything went together as though it were built like a watch.^' You can realize yourself how important it is that the framing of big houses should "fit." Loose joints cause vibration. You cannot make a good fit with a ^8 -inch bolt in a half -inch hole. We drill all holes in our framing to a tight fit for the bolts. We have adjustment on all framing members to take up the slack. No chance for vibration in a **King.** When you build your next house, better look into these big things. They mean dollars to you.

NEW YORK CITY DXCKUBKB 2, 1920 r -■» rhe Florists' Review 11 ^1^ REFRIGERATORS FOR ALL PURPOSES CAnd, for the Floral Trade in ^articular^^ / 'I HK McCray Refrigerator is the favorite with V- / the floral trade. 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 SF>oil- 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. Get a copy of this Catalog — it will tell you more about the Mc- Cray and what it will mean to your business. Send for Catalog — Let us send you a catalog that describes a great variety of designs — one to suit every requirement: No. 74 for Florists; No. 71 for Grocers and Delicatessens; No. 63 for Meat Mar- kets and General Stores; No. 95 for Residences; No. 52 for Hotels and Restaurants.

I give you full credit for the way you packed the shipment. That's the way to pack plants, and not just slap them in like so many shippers are doing nowadays. Everyone seems to be mighty anxious to sell goods and get the money, but don't give a rap how goods reach the buyer. Enclosed find check for additional order." From Arizona: "Duplicate our order of the 24th; did not think shipment could be made this far." "Received 400 cyclamen from the east and they can't touch youra. " "Cyclamen arrived; well pleased with quality and they were packed fine." "Enclosed find check for $360.00; eyes arrived in fine shape and we are well pleased with the stock." Not the cheapest that are offered, because quality stock cannot be ^ . , had cheap. Nor the highest prices, because we have a large quan- tity and can afford to share profits with you; just the best that can be had for the money.

CHECK COMPLAINTS ON HIGH PRICES LeVs show the public why floivers cost more to grow than they ever did before mid why their prices cannot fall as other cormnodities are falling. Now is the time to do the trade and the public real service by obviating criticism of flower prices, so common at Christmas. wmm OEE dangerous in its in- fluence on the sale of flowers than the reaction caused by depression in certain industries accom- panying the present busi- ness readjustment is the belief engendered by daily newspapers that the prices asked by florists are un- duly high. This is no new topic, par- ticularly for the month of December. It seems, however, to have sprung up earlier than usual this season and to have been given more prominence in public print. In Chicago this promi- nence occurred at an unfortunate time, the day before Thanksgiving, the same day that the dailies of that city car- ried a conspicuous amount of florists' advertising, done by leading retailers and the Allied Florists' Association. In both the morning papers apjieared mat- ter which, whether so calculated or not, could not but discourage flower buying. Misrepresentation. In the Tribune, in a conspicuous col- umn, was a story of high food costs, ending with a statement quoted as coming from Eussell J. Poole, secretary of the city council committee on living costs, which wound up with the para- graph which appears in the box on this page. In the Herald and Examiner, Chicago's other morning paper, ap- peared the cartoon reproduced at the bottom of this page. This strip, which is occupied daily by the adventures of Barney Google, .'i])]i<'nrs not only in a conspicuous position in the Herald and Examiner, but also in many other news- papers throughout the country, to which it is supplied by the King Feature Syndicate. The slogan of the Tribune, "The World's Greatest Newspaper," and that of the Herald and Examiner, "And as for the florists, they are attempting the biggest rob- bery of all. The young man who attempts to say it with flowers this Thanksgiving faces bank- ruptcy."— From statement by sec- retary of city council committee on living costs, in Chicago Trib- une, November 24. "Largest Three Cent Morning Circula- tion in the World," may or may not be accepted as strictly accurate by all readers; nevertheless, they are the morning reading of the citizens of the third largest city in the world and of a large number of people in Illinois and adjacent states. Material in their columns is given a wide circulation and its influence is great. The result was that the money which the florists of Chicago, through the Allied Florists' Association, spent to advertise flowers for Thanksgiving on one page was dis- counted by what met readers' eyes on a later page. Some readers who perused the florists' advertisement going down- town on the street cars or elevated trains the morning before Thanksgiving said to themselves, "I guess I'll get some flowers for tomorrow" — and some of them, after they had read Rus- sell J. Poole 's remark on a later page, said, "I guess I won'tl" Just the pre- cise result to florists of such adverse publicity cannot be determined, but that there was a result not beneficial to the trade cannot be doubted. Protest. In protest to the quotation from Mr. Poole which appeared in the Chicago Tribune, The Review wrote a letter to the editor of that newspaper suggest- ing that a fairer presentation of facts be made the public. One of the re- sults of the letter was its apjiearance — with some omissions — in the depart- ment headed "Voice of the People," in the Tribune November 26. The letter actually written November 24 was as follows: At the pnd of the article which appeared In the right-hand coiumn of page 17 of this morn- ing's Tribune appeared the following statement, quoting Russeil J. Poole, "And as for the florists, they are attempting the biggest robbery of all. Tlie young man who attempts to say it with flowers this Thanlcagiving faces banliniptcy." This statement is more than an exaggeration; it is a false assertion which puts in a wrong light iin entire trade in the territory in which the Tribune circulates. It brands an entire group of men and women because the truth is not known in their behalf. Actually, prices of flowers are little above what they were a year ago. During the year coal has advanced tremendously in cost and labor has kept close upon its heels. These two items form the principal expense in growing flowers. The florist, so far from committing robbery, is in reality working on smaller margin than ever before, and is bearing part of the advance in cost instead of passing it all along to tlie consumer.

Englehart. terial for puhlie.-ition on thos(> tojjics. No si)ace has been gi\(ii to flower costs — why? At first thought, maybe wo lay the blame on the newsjiapers. Perhaps to a certain extent we're right. 15iit to a larger extent, we're not. No one has our business at heart so much as we have ourselves, and no one will act for us if we do not act. Benj.'nnin Frank- lin's statement, "If you would have a thing well done, do it yourself," might be revised by the omission of the "well" and be often applicable, as it is iu this instance. Opportunity. Here is au opiportunity for great serv- ice by our j)ublici1y campaigns, both national and local, that does not require large expenditure for expensive ailver- tising space. It calls for the gathering of some statistics and jiutting them into readable form for ]iublication in news- j)apers and magazines. Reference to the work of the nurserymen last year in jiublicity shows what a Vast amount of newspaper space can be obtained for the sole expense of sending out prepared stories, giving them ex- clusively to one paper in each com- munity. Such material was sent to over 7r>0 papers throughout the coun- try and the total space aggregated thousands of columns, all to the advau- costs throughout the country. For ex- amples to show the public the ascent iu the cost of growing flowers in com- parison with the rise in the prices charged for them, figures obtained from a few greenhouses will serve. If the sole florist in a small town wishes to impri'ss the fact on his pub- lic, he needs only figures showing the course of rising costs in his own houses. A chat with the editor of the local l)aper will serve to get him perhaps lialf a column, if he takes along a bunch of flowers. In larger communities the secretary of the coiijierative advertising organiza- tion can secure data from a few of its grower members to serve as illustra- tions for such an article. Such a secre- tary, if he has a knowledge of news- paper ways, as he should, can work up such a story so that it will be given a conspicuous place from a news point of view, without resorting to demands as a purchaser of advertising space. In- deed, with the present day newspajiir, such demands are not so submissively heard as they were years ago. The editorial and advertising departments are widely divorced and the editor's inclination is more to avoid the aj)pear- ance of favoring an advertiser in the reading columns than to cater to his wislies. The ajipeal should be to his desire for news, for something of in- terest and value to readers, that gives no firm or organization free advertis- ing, at any rate directly. Christmas. Now is a most advantageous mo- ment to do just this thing. Christmas is near at hand, when newspaper com- ment regarding high prices is always common. If the public were informed regarding the high cost of growing flowers, if it were made to realize just why a dozen roses cost what they do, niany would pay the price more will- ingly and some persons would buy flowers instead of talking about rob- bery. Exceedingly small is the per- centage, even of those who buy flowers, who comprehend how constant and minute is the care required in a green- house. Few realize that large growers sjiend several hundred dollars daily merely to fumigate their houses. Few have any inkling of the labor cost or the coal cost that enters into each bloom. Nor do they realize the length of time required to grow roses on 3-foot and -1 foot stems. It is even more im- portant that the iniblic realize that the cold weather and dark days of winter curtail jtroduction when expenses are highest, when the demand is strongest, and when tlie sujipdy is lowest. All these facts may be put in inter- esting form, with .s|)ecific examples in dollars and cents to illustrate tlie points which are to be most impressed upon the public. Thus may be driven home an ajipreciation of the reasons for high prices that will forestall the usual com- plaints and, indeed, slimiilate buying instead of its being curtailed. Here is an opportunity for the trade. Let's take it! TENNESSEE PRESIDENT.

COLOR IN WINDOW DISPLAY. "Color in window display is one of the most subtle means of influencing the florist's customers, yet one that receives far less attention than it deserves," stated a Seattle florist who has acquired a more than local reputation for the window disjdays of flowers he produces. "I have found the following rules of great help when figuring out back- grounds for the various windows, and know they can be used with flowers .iust as with any other colored body. White by the side of a color serves to intensify the tone of the object shown, while black has just the opposite effect." Among the color schemes which he has found effective are the following: l^lnok, ornnpe and re«l. Ulnrk, yellow and orange, lilack, red and yellow, llliiok, yellow and violet. Ulack, preen and oranpe.

Ya., at- tracted much attention .and has actually been effiM'tive in stimulating the linn's telegrajih business to a considerable ex- tent. In the extreme front of this window and elevated somewhat was a telegraph instrument. Piled around it were num- bers of telegrams. Telegraph wirrs ex- tended from the instrument over minia- ture poles and terminated at the north pole of a gl(d)e of the earth, at the other end of the window. On one side of the telegraph line ran a miniature elec- tric train of two cars. The banner on one read "Winter P'loral Co. Special," and on the other "Say It with Flowers for All Occasions." This train disap- peared into a tunnel beneath a mountain which sujijiorted tlie globe and the track eircled back behind a canK>uflage of ferns, emerging again behind the tele- grajih instrument. On the other side of the telegraph line ran a road of white sand on which was placed a toy delivery truck filled with flower boxes labeled, "Special Delivery from the Winter Floral Co." In the center of the window was a pond filled with goldfish and a doll boy fishing on the bank. The backgi-oiiud w;is of auluiiiii foliage, with telegrams ]nniii'd fn tlir foliage in jirofusion.

There is no end to the making oi' basket arrangements, because there is no end to tlie combinations th'' tlorist may make of the material at his dis- posal. From the strictest and simplest use of one variety of rose, for example, to the inclusion of many difl'ereiit flow- ers, there are many gradations, and in the material that m;iy be combined there is wide variety. What is always needed is that eye for harmonious combination which is the florist's greatest asset. On this jiage is illustrated a basket from one of flhicago's foremost florists, an example of a hai)py juxtaposition of a number of flowers. Tin y were selected with care .and jilaccd with skill, with a most j)lcasing result. W. .1.

Of course Mr. Weber's store was thronged and it was a highly suc- cessful affair from his point of view. Now let us consider the general trade view: Not all the people who saw Mr. Weber's splendid ads were near his store that week, but flowers had been brought attractively to their attention, so they bought some from their regular florist or at any convenient place. So all the retail florists in St. Louis and wherever St. Louis newspapers are read benefited more or less by Mr. Weber's enterprise. And if the retailers profited, so did the St. Louis wholesalers and growers, even the Chicago wholesalers and growers, the supply houses, plants- men — everybody. Yes, it's boosters like Fred "Eed C. " Weber who make the florists' business grow. Let's help 'em all we can. and many times less than half, what this florist and a few others ask. Winfield 8. Kircher. ODCN LCrm^y^ DEADED3 F. T. D. PRICES INFLATED? I should like to know wliat others think of some of the price lists sent by large F. T. D. florists to us little fellows in smaller places. It seems to me there are some inflated prices in some of these, which will put a damper on F. T. D. business instead of pushing it. I have just received one such price list. This may contain this florist's regular prices; I do not know. But when he asks $25 per dozen for Eussell roses at retail, when the highest prices quoted on any wholesale list I have received are only $35 per hundred or $4.20 per dozen, it looks like an inflated price. How can he expect the average florist in the average town to take F. T. D. orders for him at such prices? Highest quotations on carnations are $8 per hundred. He quotes them at $4 and $5 per dozen. Columbia wholesales at $25 per hundred for the best. He quotes them at $25 per dozen, with the lowest grade at $10, which should be not far off from the best grade at retail, allowing a good margin for overhead expenses and still doubling his money. Other flowers are quoted as high, propor- tionately. I sent out a few telegraph orders for Thanksgiving and charged a fair price. I sent out one for mums at $10 per dozen; also one for roses at $10 per dozen. But when it comes to asking such prices as this florist wants, it's going too far, I think, for the good of the trade in general. Do you think this will help the florists' trade, or will it hurt us all? It may be all right in a few instances to charge those prices, but how can the average florist charge, and the average customer pay them? The public will buy some- thing else in preference. In that way the entire florists' trade, and the tele- graph business especially, is damaged instead of boosted. I should like to know what some other florists think of this same thing. They no doubt have received such price lists. A few only, I am glad to say, seem to be inflating their prices so much; the majority of F. T. D. members, some in much larger places than this one is, who, no doubt, give just as good service, furnish the same grade of stock at half, :Jall Opening SHOUTING OUB SLOGAK.

IIow flowers were used to celebrate Armistice day in England is told in the following paragraph from the Garden- ers' Chronicle, of Loudon, for Novem- ber 20: "During Armistice week, when the thoughts of the whole nation were turned to remembrance of those who laid down their lives for the cause of liberty during the great war, many thousands of people expressed their es- teem and love for the departed through the medium of flowers. At local shrines throughout the country floral tributes of affection and regard were abundant, while the national shrine, the cenotaph in Whitehall, was, and still is, sur- rounded by an extraordinary wealth of flowers, of which it has been estimated tliere are no fewer than 100,000 separate emblems. King George V., the Prince of Wales and other members of the royal family, the prime minister and other notable people, placed tributes at the base of the cenotaph, and among the many others was one from the National Union of Horticultural Work- ers, which consisted of a design four feet high and three feet wide, composed of yellow and crimson chrysanthemums, bordered with laurel leaves, the whole representing the badge of the union. The inscription was as follows: 'To the memory of the 105 members of the National Union of Horticultural Work- ers who died for their country.' " Announcement of Fred C.

The store has two entrances. It is reported to be the largest flower store in Detroit. The fixtures are from the A. L. Ean- dall Co., Chicago, and are of the best. The decorations at the time of open- ing, as may be noted in the illustra- tions on page 25, were mostly chrysan- themums, palms and ferns.

This is a mutual organization of florists and in every way recommend- able. It would, of course, be to the advan- tage of the members to have the Hail Association known to everyone in the greenhouse business, but it is only re- cently that the directors have consid- ered it advisable to make a small appro- priation for advertising in the spring. They could get a full page once a month in The Eeview for $480 a year. a clean and attractive appearance to the interior. A feature of the new store is the display of ornamental baskets. This line of accessories is cleverly brought to notice without eclipsing the main busi- ness of selling flowers. The slogan, "Say It with Flowers," may be seen over the doorway which connects the two sections of the store, in the extreme rear of the interior pictured in one of the accompanying illustrations. Peter K. Papes was in Chicago a few weeks before the opening, arranging for stock. The highest-class stock obtain- able is being carried and the best trade in Detroit will be catered to. The Papes brothers are also interested in the Cen- tral Floral Co., Detroit 's successful popu- lar-priced store. The latter company also has a store on State street in Chi- cago. FEEEZING IN TRANSIT. That the law will disregard the im- rnediate cause of an injury in fixing liability when it appears that something else was the real cause, is shown by the Virginia Supreme Court of Appeals in a case of special interest to florists — L. J. Upton & Co. vs. Merchants' & Miners' Transportation Co., 103 South- eastern Reporter, 616. This general principle is specifically applied in a holding that where a ship- ment has been exposed to freezing weather by an unreasonable delay in transit, the carrier will not be permit- ted to avoid liability for the resulting loss on the ground that the freezing ■was an act of God. The court says: "The question has been so frequently the subject of liti- gation and the cases so fully analyzed and annotated that no extended discus- sion of them is regarded as necessary. The rule is that a carrier is exempt from liability if the act of God is the proxi- mate and sole cause of loss, but it is equally well settled that, even though the immediate cause of loss is an act of God, nevertheless, if the negligence of the carrier mingles with it as an active and cooperative cause, the carrier is still responsible. If the negligence of the carrier concurs in and contributes to the loss, the carrier is not exempt from liability, even if the immediate damage is caused by the act of God. "In Wolf vs. American Express Co., 43 Mo. 421, 97 Am. Dec. 406, in which the carrier was held responsible for the freezing of wine, this is said: 'Had not the negligence and inattention of the defendant cooperated with the cold, the loss would not have taken place, nor the damage have occurred. The carrier must not only exercise diligence, but he must use that degree of attention and care which the occasion and subject committed to his trust demand. What NEW YOEK. Thanksgiving Business. Thanksgiving day business was, on the whole, fairly satisfactory. With a normal demand, the supply of flowers would have been on the short side. Buyers balked at prices on the days preceding the holiday, until a threat- ened congestion forced concessions to an extent which stimulated the move- ment of stock. Chrysanthemums, of course, were in greatest demand, and over them the price war raged. The best commercial varieties, held at $9 per dozen, then moved down to $7.50, a few only bringing the higher price. i ■ ; f Ki4D ■«•.

As a rule, lilies do best in a rich soil, but the bulbs should not he in contact with fresh manure, as this is injurious. Well rotted manure is beneficial to them. Lilies art' propai;ated from seed, from scales and froni ofl'scts. To proilucc bulbs from seed is a slow process. In jjrowinjj bulbs from scales, take quite rip<*, stronf^, outside scales and ])lanl them where they will be kej)t warm and moist. They generally grow into Imll. lets the first season, and make a fairly good growth the second year.

Use the S(dl as light as ])ossible, should it be rather heavy, and set the bulbs on a cushion of sand. With heavy soil mix y>lenty of well de- cayed manure. It cannot be mentioned too often that the soil sliould be light and rather fibrous. Do not forget the drainage in your pot and ]>lant your liulbs firtnly; that is, press the soil well around the pot and leave the soil more loose on top of the bulb, (lood jjlanting is half of the growing. Many florists st.'irf the bulbs in 1 iiudi jiots and trans- fer them, when growth has begun, into I)ids in wliiidi they arc- to bloom. Others jilant the bulbs in i)ots in which they are to bloom, fill them two-thirds with soil, leave them in that stage until the bulbs make four to five inches of growth, and then fill the pots with soil. Often one gives a t(jj)-dressing, half manure and h.alf s(dl, which is not ailvis- .able, ]iarticul;irly if it is fresh uuinure.

Then keep them on the dry side; this will help the bulbs to make roots sooner .and get better root action. By so doing, the bulbs will make top and bottom roots at the same time. As soon as growth l)egins, give water as you see fit. If possilile, have a house ready where the pots can be set right from the beginning on the benches. If this cannot be done, place them under benches in the same house where they are intended to be grown, as it will save time. May Regulate Growth. Bulbs ]daute f^-4 ? ^ ¥ # Chrysanthemum Glorious.

TWO NEW PINK MUMS. A good pink chrysanthemum which would bloom for Thanksgiving has long been desired by the trade. The possi- bility of sale for such a variety has struck the minds of a good many flo- rists. With that in mind, Baur & Steiu- kamp, of Indianapolis, lud., have worked up a stock of their new variety. Thanksgiving Pink, which they believe fills the long-felt want to perfection. They have also a pink, which will be disseminated at the same time, which blooms about November 1. Some idea of the appearance of the new varieties may be obtained from the accomjiany- ing illustrations. They are named Glorious and Thanksgiving Pink. The former is a pleasing shade of medium pink, which holds its color un- usually well. The flower is of large commercial size. The stem holds the bloom erect and is clothed with foliage of medium size. This variety will grow four feet in height if planted in June and blooms about November 1. Thanksgiving Pink is an even shade of bright pink, which does not bleach in strong sunlight, giving it added value if it is held for late cutting. The flower is of good commercial size, with reflex petals. The bloom is, however, quite full, giving solidity equal to the incurved type. It handles and ships easily, making it an ideal Thanksgiving variety. The stem is rigid and is clothed with abundant foliage. This variety also grows four feet from a June planting and blooms the last half of November. DRIED CHRYSANTHEMUMS. I am sending you specimens of my chrysanthemums, wliich have dri(>d up during tlie last month so that the blooms are imperfect, although the roots seem strong. What is the cause? E. S. P.— Pa. It is difficult to determine the cause 'of the drying up from the plants re- ceived, .since they arrived in a shriveled state. A deficiency of moisture, borers in the stems and several other causes might bo responsible, but the most probable cause is a lack of moisture. C. W. VINCENT'S NEW DAHLIA. R.

PROTECTING PANSY PLANTS. 1 should like to know the best way to protect pansy plants through the winter. I have four beds about 5xG0 feet. J. W. N.— Pa. Wait until the ground is frozen hard: then give the pansy beds a mulch of straw, hay or leaves, just enough to cover the plants. The mulching is not to be given with the idea of keeping the plants warm, but rather to keep the frost in and prevent the heaving which follows sudden thaws and is disastrous to unmulched plants. Lay some light boards, cornstalks or brush on the leaves to prevent the mulch from being blown away. A light scattering of loam or old manure will answer th.o same purpose. C.

They would prove a more cer- tain crop than tomatoes, as well. C. W. CARE OF MUSHBOOMS. I should like to know the best method of growing mushrooms. I have a new house and in the cellar I have made a place for mushrooms, 8x20 feet. The cellar is surrounded by a cement wall, and is heated by steam pipes. C. J. R.— N. Y. To secure good mushroom crops you need a good supply of fresh horse ma- nure. Shake out all the rough straw; stack it under cover, in an open shed if possible, and turn it over a few times until rank heat has passed; moisten it if any dry spots appear. Sometimes one- third loam is added to the manure and this helps to prevent too violent heat- ing and assists in retaining heat when the bed is made up. To be in the right condition to make up into a bed, the ma- nure should be moist enough to squeeze together without exuding water. In making up beds, spread a layer at a time and tramp or pound it as hard as possible; keep adding more layers and firming thoroughly. An average depth of from eight to nine inches gives splendid results and the harder your bed is pounded the better it will retain heat and produce mushrooms. I like to spawn the bed at a temperature of from 85 to 90 degrees; place a thermometer in the bed to ascertain the heat. Pure Culture spawn produces mushrooms more quickly than English Milltrack, but the latter is preferred as a rule in the high-grade restaurants and hotels. Break the spawn into pieces the size of an English walnut and plant the pieces twelve to fourteen inches apart each way and two inches deep. In eight or ten days after spawn- ing, spread a layer of two inches of loam over the beds and firm well. If your heat dries the surface at all, it is an advantage to spread fine hay, straw or excelsior as a mulch, until the mush- rooms appear, which should be in from five to seven weeks, sometimes earlier. A temperature of 55 to 58 degrees and a moist-feeling atmosphere suit mush- rooms. When watering must be done, and it is only a necessary evil, give it a temperature of 100 degrees; then spread some mulch over the bed to hold the heat in. Mushroom culture is somewhat of a lottery, but if your spawn and manure are good, there is no reason why you cannot succeed. C. W. TOMATOES UNDER GIASS. Will you please give me the best method of growing tomatoes? I have a new house and should like to know if artificial fertilization is advisable and, if so, what ia the proper method of fertilizing. C J. R.— N. Y. Tomatoes make a profitable green- house crop, provided suitable varieties are grown, suitable temperatures and cultural conditions are given and a con- venient market will care for the crop. As a beginner, it would not be advisable for you to plant a crop for winter fruit- ing; it might not return profit. But for a spring and early summer crop toma- toes will pay well. Sow the seeds any time before January. Good varieties are Comet, Victory, John Baer and Lis- ter's Prolific Improved. These are standard forcing varieties. That does not mean they will not succeed outdoors, but they are splendid forcers. Transplant the little seedlings into flats and later pot them singly before planting out. Raised benches are best for spring, solid beds for summer crops. Such a soil as will grow lettuce, carna- tions or violets will suit tomatoes. Set the plants out sixteen to eighteen inches apart in the rows and train them to a single stem, which means that all side shoots must be removed as they appear. Pinch out the tops after the bunches have set. Fertilization is necessary for winter, but not after April 1. It can be effected by shaking the vines about noon on clear, sunny days. This scatters the pollen. A camel 's-hair brush, a piece of cotton wool on a stick or a rabbit's foot may be used to touch the open flowers and cause impregnation. A suitable temperature for tomatoes is 58 to 60 degrees at night. They thrive better in a dry atmosphere. Do not syringe overhead at any time. Mulch when the fruit is well set, to prevent the soil from drying out. It might be well to plant lettuce to follow the tomatoes. Two crops of let- tuce could be grown before it would be necessary to plant the tomatoes again. Lettuce can be grown in a temperature much cooler than is needed for toma- REMEDY FOR CLUB ROOT. What is the name of the root scale or gall which has apparently affected the tomato plant I have sent youf I have had trouble with this root disease before, and two years ago I changed my soil for that reason. The soil is now one- third horse manure, with 100 pounds of lime added. I have three beds, each 5x60 feet. Those parts of the soil where I did not use lime were hardly produc- tive at all. All the plants I have in- spected are infected the same as the one I have sent you and the crop is generally poor. What remedy would you advise? A. M.— La. The roots of the tomato plant were covered with club root, nematodes or root gall. This is a serious disease and often attacks tomatoes under glass. While lime counteracts to some extent the effects of club root, it cannot be re- garded as a cure, although that it helps is unquestioned. Thorough steam sterili- zation of your beds before planting is the most effective of all remedies, and if this is done it is not necessary to throw out your soil. I know growers who have solid beds and have grown crops of tomatoes, cucumbers, violets, sweet peas and mums and have not changed their soil for a dozen years. They produce magnificent crops, but, of course, they sterilize and manure freely. Shutting off and baking with the sun may help a little and soaking the soil with a solution of formaldehyde is also good, but I would strongly ad- vise steam sterilization, if you want a complete cure. The expense will easily be recouped by increased crops. C.

Y., in reply to a long-distance phone call for a shipment of choice Major Bonnaf- fons, "Our best mums are all bespoken by our home trade," • • • • "You may quote us," said Mrs. Henry Eberhardt, of the Rosendale Flower Shop, Schenectady, N.

W. M. NEWARK, N. J. The Market. Chrysanthemums are in their prime now. Prices are high, and retailers complain that such prices kill trade. Customers blame the retailers for the high prices, not knowing that they have to pay twice as much at wholesale as the flowers cost formerly at retail. Most retailers formerly had customers who came regularly once, twice or three times a week to buy 50 cents or $1 worth of flowers. In the aggregate this trade amounted to considerable. Now it has disappeared. Florists can give practically nothing for these sums. Paper Whites are coming into the mar- ket in large quantities. Various Notes. Fred P. Wolfinger reports that while business is good, there is not the life to it that there should be. He attrib- utes this in part to the fact that high prices of flowers have driven away a considerable part of the transient cut flower trade. Henry A. Strobell reports a good Thanksgiving trade. E. B. M. DULUTH, MINN. The Market. Stock of all kinds was plentiful for Thanksgiving day and almost every- thing sold well. Chrysanthemums of fine quality were the best sellers. En- guehard. Eager, Marigold, Wells' Late Pink and Christmas Gold were the chief varieties. Pompons in white, yel- low and pink sold well, also white and yellow Mensa. Paper Whites have made their appearance, but as yet there is little or no call for them. There are a few good sweet peas coming in, also calendulas and bouvardia. Violets and orchids were useful for corsage work. Various Notes. O. J. Olson, of Holm & Olson, St. Paul, Minn., was a visitor in Duluth last week, on his return from a huntine trip. * The staff of the Duluth Floral Co. gave a surprise party in honor of Mrs. J. E. Stapleton Sunday night, Novem- ber 28. Supper was served for twenty- one. During the evening there were mu- sic, cards and dancing. Southern smilax and pink and white mums were used by J. J. LeBorious for the Bridgeman wedding, which was an elaborate event. The Quality Flower Shop reports that Thanksgiving day business was much better than last year. J. E. S. TOEONTO, ONT. Business last week was comparatively quiet. There has been a fair amount of design work, and some of the florists have been having a number of decora- tions. These are for dances, receptions, teas, etc. There have been a great num- ber of coming-out parties and these have resulted in many orders for flowers WHO'S WHO 'A'Z AND WHY r V '1 t, ^mk 1 **^'^B||^^^ Lri' r^4^iMtlU^BIKm ^% i l^^^^^^h^' 'H»- .InmBmi^K^^^^EM^ii^ A. 1 ti^^^^^^^Hm. _';^|H9HP« ^J ^^^^^^^^k '^^I^K^np^ ''M - .^^^^^^^^^^^^^A t.M^K ^H^Bm^ ^ •xa| \ .^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^k' - •f^HH^ffi^ '-^^^ Wi w^^^^^^^^^^^^ ' >-^^K^fff..^^^M \ ^H^^^^^^^-^ : ~ '^-'^'^^flJI^^B'^iHP^'^^^'^T^^^^^^ ^ . -^^^I^^^^^^^^^^^^^^k;' "■Jmgm^^B^BU^-* A ^.^ ipyi J^^^^^^^^^^^^^H ''^' ^^^I^^^^MHr^ ^HM^fP^V 1 -^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^K Ji^HiL^t'^ ^^^^^^^^^HN^^^^ ^ jl^hH^P^^PiP^* :^M t ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ft ' * ' »«flHiMl^^^^^ft^^' ^P*''^ ^t ' ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^B ' '^^^B^ ^ ^.^^i^^^^^^^Ev^^MBHyikil * jB^i ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^H' •^ ^tttLf v«iai^^^^^^k.,^iHPIIV4lMii '^sM ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^K '' itMH^*it^d8^^^^^^Htit M.

THOUGH not actually a florist, Ove Gnatt has become as well known to the trade as if he were, for the prepared foliages from his factory at Laporte, Ind., take his name all over the country. Ove Gnatt expects to spend Christmas in his native land. The president of the Ove Gnatt Co., Laporte, Ind., accom- panied by his family, will leave December 9 for Europe. He plans to go directly to Denmark and will spend Christmas in Copenhagen, where he was born in 1885. Mr. Gnatt 's trip will include business as well as pleasure. Besides the Scandi- navian countries, he will visit France, Belgium and Italy in search of new ideas for use in his business. Mr. Gnatt and his family will return in about three months. both for delivery in the city and by ex- press or telegraph. The debutantes have been showered with flowers. Although retail business seems small, there is no surplus of stock. A recent visit to several of the green- houses showed the stock coming on well for Christmas. There will be an abun- dance. It looks like the proper time for another cooperative advertising campaign. A number of the retailers are in favor of it for the good of the industry, and the cooperation of the growers in advertising schemes was manifested by the manner in which they contributed to the Mothers' day fund. Tariff matters concerning florists will come before the tariff commisBioii boos, and it is hoped that the plants not ob- tainable in Canada will be put on the free list. A committee, with Major Connon, of Hamilton, Ont., as chairman, has tabulated the information and will present it when the commission meets at Hamilton. J. J. H. Dasrton, O. — To insure a fuel supply for his greenhouses, Eolf Zetlitz pur- chased a coal mine at Buchtel, O., last July. The increase in production of late has supplied Mr. Zetlitz with more than he needs, so that he is offering to other florists eight or ten cars a week of this coal, which comes from the Nelsonville No. 6 vein, serving them from the Hocking valley fields. Marquette, Mich. — Alphonse Peters donated flowers to accompany each Thanksgiving basket to needy families, through the Visiting Nurses' Associa- tion, receiving appreciative remarks from many patrons for the act, which was given publicity in the local news- paper. Thanksgiving business was ex- cellent, and Mr. Peters looks forward to a splendid Christmas. 32 The Florists^ Review DlCKMBIB 2, 1920 Established 1897, by O. L. Grant.

There will be plenty of valley for the wedding bouquets next June. Never mail currency. Send checks, so that if the letter is lost the money still will be safe. This is the month when a bright win- dow gets attention. Are you using this means of advertising your flowers? "Let us beautify your sun parlor," reads a sign over a live florist's store. Perhaps a corner of your shop could be fitted up to show patrons how. Retailers who have long-term leases expiring next May are getting a jolt from the landlords. Make short-term leases now. Conditions will change within the next three years. What does the postoffice do with the letters that never arrive? In the good old days there were no such letters, but now the complaints are numerous and, worst of all, increasing. There is too much soil adhering to some of this season's imports of Man- etti stocks to suit the hair-splitters em- ployed by the F. H. B. They suggest condemning and destroying whole ship- ments because not thoroughly manicured. The aggregate production of soft coal during the week of November 13 was 12,- 091,000 tons, which was larger than for any corresponding week of the last four years, according to statistics compiled by the geological survey. The rate of out- put was cut considerably by the Armis- tice day celebration. The week would probably have set a new record except for the holiday in many states. Window-glass factories have pretty much all shut up shop for the time being. There are various reports as to the reason. Ostensibly they are closed because of fail- ure of the supply of natural gas. Another report is that the suspension of activities is planned to reduce the cost of labor, while still another source of information avers that if the factories operated more than a few months a year they would turn out so much glass it could not be sold. In the meantime the supply is small, deliveries slow and prices high, particularly of greenhouse sizes. Do the vases in your refrigerator dis- play case add to the appearance of your flowers? The extra expense of suitable ware is an item soon repaid. The florist who does not take an in- ventory at least once, and preferably twice, a year, not only lacks intimate knowledge of his business, but courts trouble in times when business is not the best. * Based on the prices per pound of thirty-one articles used for food. Brad- street's weekly index number for last week was $3.80, in comparison with $3.99 the week before and $5.10 for the cor- responding week a year ago, denotiiig more than a twenty-five per cent de- crease in the last year. A dollar will now buy some flowers as well as some food. Locations in the congested parts of cities are not necessarily the most desir- able for flower stores. Where traffic is too dense people are likely to be hurried past, without the opportunity of admir- ing, entering or even seeing the florist's shop. In such a place the rental value is above the actual sales value of the location. Those who have tried both kinds know they do a better-class and more profitable business, perhaps by a little different methods, at the stand just out- side the zone of greatest traffic conges- tion. BIOOER THAN EVER. From every city in the country the reports of Thanksgiving business are enthusiastically good. Those who enter- tained some misgivings as to the in- crease of sales that this holiday would bring found their doubts unfounded, and those who made ready for excellent business reaped the benefit of their preparations. The nature of the busi- ness is not reported uniformly; some florists state that their best stock went first, a good many people preferring a few special blooms to a larger number of lower grade, while others experienced a strong demand for moderately priced flowers. The general condition Thurs- day night seemed, however, to be the same — ^fuU cash drawers and empty ice- boxes. Chrysanthemums, in many markets, were all too few, though in a few local- ities they were abundant. Boses like- wise were not overplentiful. The scarcity of the latter is due, perhaps, to growers' endeavoring to hold them back till the mums are out of the way. Other stock served to supply the pub- lie's requirements, though the general preference was for mums. Speaking generally, prices were not high, though in most cases good. This fact, no doubt, had its part in accounting for the day's large business. Retailers stocked up who would have bought more warily at higher figures. The strong markets the latter part of the week indicated such retailers moved their supply. CHRISTMAS NEXT. The success of Thanksgiving encour- ages retailers to prepare for a big Christmas business. Some florists were doubtful as to the effect which the gen- eral business quiet would have upon sales for the feast day; indeed, they were inclined to be pessimistic. The volume of sales actually registered, however, served as a reassuring barome- ter, indicating that Christmas, too, would be as big a flower day as of yore. Uncertainty is felt as to whether the amount of stock, in plants or cut flow- ers, which will be offered the public at this yuletide will be as large as that available last year. Opinion seems gen- eral that it will not. This fact will call for larger and more varied preparations to satisfy the holiday demand, and the retailer will regret business turned away if he fails to make adequate pro- vision for excellent business. In some mercantile lines the public is averse to spending much before the holidays be- cause they foresee bargains during the sales that follow, especially since news- paper stories tell of extra efforts to maintain retail price levels until Christ- mas is past. But flowers are not in that category. The Christmas plant or basket cannot be presented a week later. Florists will have an excellent holiday business at Christmas time. GET ORDERS IN EARLY. Although railroad transportation now is better than it has been for a long while and express service is improving, orders will be placed for the Christmas and New Year's holidays which will be received late. The fault for all of them will not lie with the carriers. It is a habit that is not confined to the florists ' trade to postpone placing orders for even staple supplies until the last minute and then to blame everybody but oneself if they arrive late. There are times, of course, when it is neces- sary to send rush orders, even though careful foresight has been employed. But many last-minute orders might just as well have been sent sooner, to the greater comfort and satisfaction of all concerned\ Aside from flowers, almost everything in a flower store can be ordered now as well as next week. There is little reason for postponement, usually none but procrastination. It is well to make count now of the supplies needed — every florist can judge as well now as later, and a liberal supply will be used up after if not at the holidays, anyway — and send your orders in early. Then you will have insured yourself an ade- quate stock, regardless of whether transportation is back to pre-war stand- ards or not. A PRIORL Some things are easily reasoned out, without the benefit of experience. For instance: I receive great pleasure and benefit from my subscription to The Review. — Wm.

Given such letters as these, an aprio- rist would reason that The Review, standing so highly with those who buy it to read, must be a splendid advertising medium. He would regard as to be ex- pected, such letters as these: The plants are sold; the last check we needed came in today. We are well satisfied with the results and won't forget The Review when wo have something more to sell. — Alphonse Peters, Marquette, Mich., November 16, 1920.

Dbcembeb 2, 1920 The Florists' Review 33 Henry C. Woltemate. Henry C. Woltemate, whose sudden death was reported in last week's Re- view, was one of the oldest florists in Philadelphia. With his two brothers, Albert and William, he was brought up in his father's floral establishment, on Germantown avenue near Queen lane. This was fifty years ago, when Wolte- mate's greenhouses and Woltemate 's store were better known to florists and to flower lovers ^than any other place in all Germantown. Henry C. Woltemate branched out for himself in 1879, when he was 27 years of age. He built the first of his present range of greenhouses on Mount Airy avenue, near,-4he Philadelphia & Beading railway. The name of Wolte- mate continued in the floral world of Germantown for many years more, the old place being conducted by Wolte- mate Bros, and the new place by Henry C. Woltemate. Henry C. Woltemate conducted his florists' business successfully for forty- one years. He retired September 1, 1920. He grew specialties for the re- tail stores, for the cemeteries and for his retail customers. His stock was carefully grown and ranked high in cut flowers and in plants. Mr. Woltemate 's affairs were so well managed that for thirty years he has enjoyed an outing at Keene Valley, in the Adirondack mountains, each summer. Some years ago he purchased the greenhouses that were built by Thomas Butler, at Wynd- moor, for his son Gilbert. His son, Albert W., succeeded him in business early last fall. Henry C. Woltemate was a courteous gentleman, a man of sterling integrity, who will be sadly missed by his friends. He was 68 years of age. Mr. Woltemate is survived by a widow, four sons and two daughters. The funeral services were held Wednes- day afternoon, November 24. The in- terment was at Ivy Hill. Phil. CINCINNATI, O. The Market. With the passing of Thanksgiving and the usual holiday rush for stock, the market is back to normal again. Everybody reports banner sales for the fall holiday, but there was one fault, common to all holidays — a scarcity of certain varieties of -stock. Roses and yellow mums were hard to obtain. White mums, white carnations and Paper White narcissi did not move as well as other stock. This Thanksgiving was the first in several years that such a number of large mums were to be had. It seems the growers only grew the larger ones and no mediums at all. Fortunately there was a good stock of pompons, and this relieved the strain. _ Some good California violets are ar- riving and are filling in nicely, as the home-grown ones are quite inferior, owing to the unseasonable weather. Lilies, both Easter and calla, are arriv- ing in greater abaundance and are sell- ing readily at $15 to $20 per hundred. Mums ranged in price from $3 to $6 per dozen. Carnations were cleaning up well at $6 per hundred. Snap- dragons are at $8 to $10 per hundred. Boxwood is selling, because of the sea- son, at $25 per hundred pounds. Various Notes. H. W. Sheppard has booked a con- siderable number of debutante and wedding decorations and has just re- ceived a shipment of new supplies to be used for that purpose. He reports a good Thanksgiving trade. The retailers and wholesalers have organized two bowling teams and in- tend to stage a series of games. The committee in charge is composed of one member of each of the teams. E. Bossemeyer, of C. E. Critchell, repre- sents the wholesalers, and George Kes- sen, of H. W. Sheppard, represents the retailers. The personnel of the teams is as follows: Wholesalers: E. Bosse- meyer, Charles Phipps, Frank Fried- Henry C. Woltemate. man, Ray Murphy, John Zimmer, E. Buschle, E. Cavannaugh, Alex Osten- dorp, George Shoeplinger and Charles Garvey; retailers: H. W. Sheppard, George Meyers, Jr., Arthur Becker, Michael Hanks, Charles Lantry, Bay Eck, Benjamin George, Henry Klunder, George Kessen and Stuart Jones. C. E. Critchell is receiving some ex- cellent yellow and white Chadwick from O. B. Murphy, of Price Hill. Miss Betty Ferdinandsen, of H. W. Sheppard, spent the week-end with her mother at Champaign, 111. Her mother has been ill for some time. The William Murphy Co. has been re- ceiving some excellent Columbia and Madame Butterfly roses and also some good Soleil d'Or narcissi. E. G. Gillett boasts of having the largest Helen Frieke mums that have ever come into Cincinnati, and they certainly are immense specimens. P. J. dinger is now cutting some fine stevia. Charles Barnaby, Columbus, Ind., spent a week-end with his brother-in- law, H. W. Sheppard. Mr. Barnaby re- ports business brisk at Columbus. Karl Heiser, Hamilton, 0., was in town buying supplies for his winter business. Mr. and Mrs. J. W. Rodgers motored down from Dayton, O., last week. Joe Beran reports considerable fu- neral business last week, and his activ- ity in the market bears his statement out. G. H. K. CHICAGO. The Market. Thanksgiving week was one of the most unusual experiences in this market thus far this season. Starting with No- ber 22, Monday was a most active day; Tuesday the bottom fell out, no one knows why; Wednesday the city buyers bought everything in sight if they could dicker over the price, but passed up the stock held at firm figures; Thursday's half session was brisk; Friday shipping orders poured in and sales went well ahead of the same day a year ago; Sat- urday there was a clean-up except for a few mums and pompons. On the whole, sales for most of the houses footed up a slightly better total than for the same week last year. A succes- sion of dark days, some of them quite cold, cut down the supply, so that the quantity of stock handled was less than last year, which indicates that, on the whole, prices must have averaged better than they did for Thanksgiving week in 1919. Also, the way the retailers bought after Thanksgiving shows they must have cleaned up. The present week started well. The supply shows the usual seasonable shrinkage, and there is every indication of continuous good business. There will be more late mums and pompons than in any previous year, but the general crop is off, throwing a large part of the demand back onto roses and carnations. Rose crops are at about the lightest of the season. Not only has the dark weather had its effect, but those grow- ers who cropped their houses are mak- ing preparations for Christmas and have little to cut at present. Of course, with the supply as large as it always is in this market, there are quantities of roses, but there have been more here- tofore this fall and there will be more again as soon as the Christmas crop gets under way. There is a pronounced im- provement in the demand for red roses, which never are in much request until cold weather comes. The call for white also has been improved by the reduc- tion in the supply of white mums. Carnations are selling considerably lower than they did at this date Wt year. The supply is larger, but not so much larger as many expected. As soon as white pompons are really out of the way there will be nothing but the white carnations to use in funeral work. The price for Thanksgiving proved not to be as good as the growers expected, but it is rising now. Easter lilies, too, have benefited by the reduction in the sup- ply of chrysanthemums. They now are the largest and showiest flowers to be had for wedding decorations and funeral work. Callas also benefit by the latter demand. Darker weather has reduced the sup- ply of sweet peas and the price has stiffened. The market for peas is bet- ter than it would have been had the usual supplies ofviolets been forthcom- ing. There are practically no locally grown singles and the market in the east is good enough to hold there nearly DECEMIiEK 2, lOliO The Florists^ Review 33 OBITUARY Henry C. Woltemate. Henry C. Woltemate, wliosc smldeii death was reported in last week 's Re- view, was one of the oldest florists in Philadelphia. With his two brothers, Albert and William, he was broujjlit up in his father's floral establishment, on Germantown avenue near Queen lane. This was fifty years ago, when Wolte- mate's {Treenhonses and Wolteiiinte's store were better known to florists and to flower lovers than any other place in all Germantown. Henry C. Woltemate branched out for liimself in 1879, when he was 27 years of age. He built tlie first of his present range of greenhouses on Mount Airy avenue, near the Pliiladeljihia (S: Reading railway. The name of Wolte mate continued in the floral world of Germantown for many years more, the old place being conducted by Wolte- mate Bros, and the new place by Henry C. Woltemate. Henry C. Woltemate conducted his florists' business successfnily for forty one years. He retired Pejitemlicr 1, ]920. He grew sjiecialties for the re- tail stores, for the cemeteries and for his retail customers. His stoclc was carefully grown and ranked high in cut flowers and in plants. Mr. Woltemate 's affairs were so well managed that for thirty years he has enjoyed an outing at Keene Valley, in the Adirondack mountains, each summer. Some years ago he purchased the greenhouses tliat were built by Thomas I?utler, at Wynd- moor, for his son Gilbert. His son, Albert W., succeeded him in business early last fall. Henry C. Woltemate was a courteous gentleman, a man of sterling integrity, who will be sadly missed by his friends, lie was fiS years of age. Mr. Woltemate is survi\'ed by .a widow, four sons and two daughters. The funeral services were held Wednes- day afternoon, November 21. The in- terment was at Ivv Hill. I'hil. CINCINNATI, O. The Market. With the ]>assing of Tlianksgi\ ing and the usual holiday rush for stock, the market is back to normal again. Everybody reports banner sales for the fall ludiday, but tliere was one fault, common to all holidays — a scarcity of certain \arieties of stock. Roses and yellow iMums were hard to obtain. Wliite muTus, white carnations and I'ajier White narcissi did not move as well as other stock. This Thanksgiving was fh(> first in several years that such a number of large mums were to be had. It seems the growers only grew the larger ones and no mediums at all. Fortunately there was a good stock of pomjions, and this relieved the strain. Some good California violets are ar- riving and are filling in nicely, as the home-grown ones are ipiite ' inferior, owing to the unseasonalile weather, lollies, both Kaster and calla, are arriv- ing in greater abaundanee and are sell- ing readily at $1.1 to $20 per hundred. Mums ranged in price from $3 to $G per do/.en. (Jarnatious weie cleaning up well at $(j i)er liundred. Snap- dragons are at $S to $lii jier Iniiidreil.

Two of the larger cut flower houses were inter- rogated. The investigator wanted to learn how the business is conducted and how wholesale and retail prices compare with costs of production. He was told that wholesale prices now are, on the whole, about the same as a year ago and that cost of production has increased sharply, with the result that the grow- Tann Wholesale Cat Flowers and Supplies 30 E.

Warning was given against considering only the top price; short roses are today selling below the estimated average cost of production and there are seasons of the year dur- ing which the average price of the whole cut is below cost of production.

Club to Have Show. At the Hotel Randolph December 9 the Florists' Club will hold its annual novelty show. Exhibits of the newer carnations and chrysanthemums have been promised by Baur & Steinkamp, Indianapolis, and Elmer D. Smith & Co., Adrian, Mich. Numerous other grow- ers are expected to take this oppor- tunity to show the trade what they are doing and an interesting exhibition is assured. Any exhibitor who does not accompany his flowers may send them to Fred Lautenschlager, secretary Chicago Florists' Club, Eandolph hotel, to ar- rive early December 9, and they will be properly staged. It is the club's elec- tion night, but there is no contest this year. Mr. Chronis, Bestaurauteur. Those who have missed Andrew Chronis from his accustomed place in the store of the Alpha Floral Co., and on the market, may not know that a short time ago he acquired an interest in the Raklios chain of twelve restaurants, be- coming secretary of the corporation, and that he now devotes most of his time to its affairs, making his headquarters at the commissary on Ohio street. Mr. Chronis says that, while he is well pleased with his new affairs, a brief experience of the restaurant business was sufficient to show him that success in this, as in the florists' trade, means that a great deal of hard work is to be done. He retains his florist interests, in the Alpha Floral Co., Johnson & Chronis and at the Fair. The Alpha management, formerly given his per- sonal attention, has been placed in the hands of a nephew, James MoUer, who has been associated with the Chronis en- terprises for fifteen years. Various Notes. The retail florists in the loop favor the proposal to prohibit parking of au- tomobiles downtown, except in Grant park. In the first place, it will make it possible for drivers to deposit pas- sengers at the doors of the flower stores. In the second place, if the cars are left in Grant park large numbers of people will walk, from and to them, past the windows of Lange, Bohannon, Mangel, Fleischman, Alpha and many others, as the flower stores nearly all are on the side streets east of State. Automobilists are not now easy to attract; either they move too fast or the traffic is too con- gested. An interesting bit of information is that H. N. Bruns early last summer bought 2,000,000 German marks and placed the funds in the hands of his brother at Hamburg, with which to finance the production of lily of the val- ley pips. The first shipment of 500 oases reached Chicago about November 15 and the first forced spikes will be ready for St. Valentine's day. Up to that time cold storage stock of the pre- vious year's crop is used.- Wietor's white" pompon, the stock of which was acquired from H. W. Rie- man, Indianapolis, has made many friends during its first season on the market. E.

Wietor has said his firm plans to plant several houses with it next season and to disseminate it after that. Cold weather has retarded progress on the L. & B. house going up for the Weiss-Meyer Co., Maywood. The steel frame is all set, but the concrete work is slower now that the temperature is below freezing. Paul "Weiss expects to plant it in January. The house is 70x 400, the same in size as the two at Premier Rose Gardens, which will be duplicated at the latter place by next summer. The Thanksgiving window of the Fleiscliman Floral Co., on Jackson boulevard, attracted the atlention of the trade as well as the public. Many florists found time to take a look. The display was of baskets of yellow and bronze pompons, principally Mrs. Beu, combined with Seckel pears, Delicious apples and Belgian hothouse grapes. Not only were the color combinations in perfect harmony, but the arrange- ment was excellent. Peter Reinberg, whose services to the public for many years have been in- valuable, now is confronted with one of his most difficult tasks. The cost of the county government has risen as rapidly as have business costs and, as president of the county board, Mr. Reinberg faces the necessity of cutting expenses by millions of dollars or of raising that much new revenue.

Mangel expects to open his new store in the Drake hotel about December 15. The hotel started to do business Thanksgiving day. The space to be occupied by the flower store was not quite ready, but the equipment is now being installed. C. H. Bookedis, for- merly in business as the Claypool Hotel Florist at Indianapolis, has been en- gaged as manager of the new store. William Palmer, who has just opened for business in the Avenue State Bank building in Oak Park, has a neatly equipped store. The fixtures were sup- plied by the Union Eefrigerator Co., with which Frank J. Eieux now is asso- ciated. The W. W. Barnard Co. has received its first carload of Christmas trees for the approaching holiday. Thanksgiving eve the Briggs Floral Co., at Sheridan road and Broadway, stocked up heavily on the smaller-sized mums and pompons. One vase of the latter remained when the holiday was over, even the windows being bare of blooms. There are few Chicago flower stores at which window decoration is given as much attention as by C. A.

So far this season, orchids have been scarce. Greens cleaned up and the demand equaled the supply in adiantum, plu- mosus, Sprengeri and smilax. The sup- ply of boxwood and flat ferns was suffi- cient to meet orders. The plant trade was only moderate. Chrysanthemums, peppers, cyclamens and begonias were in plenty. As Thanksgiving is a cut flower day, these had to suffer somewhat in demand. Friday and Saturday following Thanksgiving were not so busy with the retailers, although business was re- ported excellent in all lines, as hos- pital tag days made good calls for cut stock.

Thanksgiving week, November 20 to/ 27, was satisfactory in the cut flower! market. The volume of business was equal to that of last year; in some cases it was better. , . Chrysanthemums were the principal flowers. The quantity received was greater than that of the week before. There appeared to be enough for al^ orders. There was no surplus. The best brought 50 cents, others from that down to ordinary stock at 15 cents. There were said to be sales at higher, figures. There were said to be sales at lower figures. The prices given are the standard market prices. There is com- paratively little change in the varieties. This is not a year for experimenting with new introductions. The old stand- bys, as a rule, have done well, though here and there complaint is heard re- garding quality. A good many Seide- witz were late. Pompons, always popular at Thanks- giving, were more popular than ever. They were used in great number, in all the clear, rich colors. Quality and foliage were as important as m the large-flower class. "While there were enough Japanese chrysanthemums and pompons, there were not enough of the flowers that come next in point of popularity. More carnations could have been used to ad- vantage. This was the more apparent because a good many carnations were short in stem. Mrs. C. W. Ward led. The wholesalers pushed the price of Ward above that of Benora, Supreme or Matchless, because they must or it will not be grown. Every buyer wants Ward and the wholesalers know that it cannot be produced at the price of some of the earlier and freer-flowering sorts. Violets are so scarce that most of the growers ship only once a week. The mild, open fall has caused them to bloom themselves out. Another good crop is not looked for until after New Year's. The result was that violets reached $3 a hundred. The total re- ceipts for them were trifling. Beauties were offered at $75 to $100 for the specials. There is hardly any other grade now. This was moderate in view of last Thanksgiving, but there is no special demand for Beauties at Thanksgiving and the price was not maintained, the receipts being fairly heavy. Russell advanced to $30 and Columbia to $25. The demand was for the medium grade. Of these and the shorts many more could have been used. Orchids touched $2 for the best cat- tleyas. There were some nice Vanda cserulea and both kinds of cypripe- diums, the fancy yellow and the sober- hued insigne. There were a few gardenias, the flrst white lilac and a really generous supply of valley, much in request for weddings, so popular at this season. The Easter lily market is strong. Callas, bouvardia and mignonette are to be had in fair numbers. There are some excellent sweet peas. Paper White narcissi are not popular. Stevia serrata has come. The Goose Bone. The goose bone man called up on the telephone. He probably felt safer talking that way.

He said that he learned from the bone that we would have a mild, open winter followed by a cool, late spring. I told him that I supposed that if the crocuses bloomed outdoors before Easter, he would insist that the bone prophecy was right. He said that he had not said that flowers would not bloom early outdoors, bnt that there would be late frosts and to be sure to write down the goose bone prophecy, as I was an unbeliever in goose bones and would try to dis- credit the wonderful exactness of their weather forecasts.

PLUNOSUS Strings and Bunches and Greens of all kinds to Porto Rico, developed fire in the cargo in the hold at sea. The passen- gers were ordered to the upper deck with life preservers. Fortunately, the vessel reached San Juan in safety. The Philadelphia Cut Flower Co. mar- keted a large crop of chrysanthemums at Thanksgiving. Frank P. Gaul is with J. J. Haber- mehl's Sons at the Bellevue-Stratford. E. Gurney Hill, of Bichmond, Ind., was in this city last week. Mr. Hill has publicly supported the government on Quarantine 37. William Berger's Sons have a beau- tiful window of baskets of chrysanthe- mums, pompons and daisies on a pnrple plush background. This firm has put a new car on the street. Henry C.

E. A J. T. COKELY, 201 North Seventh Avenue, SCRANTON, PA. Sydney H. Bayersdorfer believes that the florists' business will steadily im- prove, unaffected by the ups and downs of other lines. The Philadelphia Wholesale Florists' Exchange has put a new car on the street. Fred H. Lemon, of Eichmond, Ind., sent some fine blooms of-Jhe new rose, Angelus, to the 8. S. pnhnolsk Co. They were of a pleasing feroi and/color. It is rumored that W. F. Therkildson has the ear of the incoming adminis- tration. There have been a number of notable visitors from out of town recently. Eugene Dailledouze, Edwin J. Fan- court and Frank H. Traendly took a trip among the growers of New Jersey and Long Island a short time ago. Harry Fritz predicts a scarcity of stock during the next fortnight. Holly, with both foliage and berries, is not easy to find. You can get it with foliage or you can get it with berries. To get both on one branch is the diffi- culty. Edward Towill sent a handsome vase of the new rose, American Legion, to the ball given by the American Legion November 18. It was placed on the post of honor and much admired. A large shipment of Manetti sent by Stuart Low & Co., through Maltus & Ware, to Stephen Mortensen, of South- ampton, has been held by the govern- ment for fumigation. Phil. BOSTON. Thanksgivltig Business. In spite of rather unfavorable weather, rain falling steadily Novem- ber 22 and 23, but relenting somewhat November 24, and despite the fact that business generally is not at its best, a good Thanksgiving business was done. There were no fancy prices and the gross volume of trade was probably below that of 1919. Nevertheless, there was a pretty good clean-up of flowers. Roses, owing to several sunless days, were even less abundant than expected and sold out easily at from $6 to $8 per hundred upward, with reds somewhat higher. Some fancy Hadley, Eussell and Crusader practically equaled Ameri- can Beauty prices, while the best grades of other hybrid teas made $25 to $30 per hundred. Carnations, strange to say, proved somewhat of a drug, and while the bulk cleaned out at $8 to $10, many were sold cheaper and some re- mained unsold. Violets were rather scarce at $2.50 to $3.

Of pom- pons and singles there was an ample supply and some snrplns. Only small lots of marguerites and baehelor's buttons were seen. Valley was scarce and dear, but not much called for. A fair supply of cattleyas and other orchids was on hand. There was a good sale of such pot plants as chrysanthemums, cyclamens, begonias, solanums, ferns and Erica melanthera. The Market. Owing to the continued dark weather since Thanksgiving, flowers are short- ening up materially. Boses practically retain holiday prices. Carnations make $6 and $8 and there is little recession in other flowers. Many chrysanthe- mums still come in, but single-stemmed stock is poor and most of the offerings are pompons and singles. As carnations and roses are both in short supply and mums practically finished, a strong market seems certain for some weeks ahead. Among the Betallers. At the store of Henry E. Comley, on Park street, are always to be found some varieties of plants not procurable at other stores. Among interesting ones noted this week were Sanchezia nobilis, Pilea muscosa, or artillery plant, sem- pervivums, saxifragas, Kalanchce Man- daiana, anthericums, selaginellas, pani- cums and philodendrons. Mr. Comley looks for some decline in the florists' trade as a result of existing conditions. At John J. O 'Brien 's large and finely arranged store, at the corner of Charles and Beacon streets, a handsome lot of evergreens in tubs is arranged on the sidewalks and these find a ready sale. Cyclamens and bronze chrysanthemums sell specially well among flowering plants. In cut flowers I noted fine lots of orchids, gardenias and bouvardias in several colors. Business here took a decided spurt the day after election and has continued good. Edward Welch, brother of Patrick Welch, is now one of the staff here, as well as Frank P. Deery. At the Park street store of Thomas Galvin, Inc., I noticed some cheering basket arrangements in one of the large show windows this week. One was of habrothamnus, now christened cestrum by botanists, and white bouvardia. Ha- brothamnus makes one of the finest con- servatory climbers and is too seldom seen.

Another pleasing combina- tion consisted of lavender and white sweet peas, Hadley and Ophelia roses. A splendid lot of pot plants was offered for the Thanksgiving trade and business ' was good at both stores. Wax Bros., at 44 Temple place, are now somewhat out of the main arteries, but Temple place contains some of Bos- ton's most select stores and the class of buyers at the Wax store is of the best type. They furnished flowers and decorations November 20 for an inter- esting double wedding at Concord, Mass., the brides being Miss Phyllis Judge and Miss Bessie Eldridge Judge. Shower bouquets of white roses and valley with white chiffon were carried by the brides. Ward roses and yellow chiffon being furnished for the brides- maids. At Penn's, on Tremont street, a large show window devoted to plants and cut flowers of bronze chrysanthemums made a charming effect, with cibotium and nephrolepis ferns as a background. A good assortment of orchids and nerines was noted in another window. Wed- ding and fujieral business has held up extremely well and an excellent Thanks- giving trade was enjoyed. At the Houghton Gorney Flower Shop, below the Park street church, the baskets of choice fruits, decorated with such pompon chrysanthemums as Mrs. Wilcox and the old Julie Lagravere, are mpst artistic. Everything about the window arrangements and the interior make-up of this most attractive store shows the work of a true floral artist. Pansies in large bunches meet with a large and increasing sale here. At the Beacon Florist's, on Beacon street, there is, to use a common phrase, "something doing all the time." The genial proprietor, John Eiseman, for many years decorator at Penn's, has a growing list of satisfied customers and has no complaint to make about busi- ness. At Carbone's, Inc., new importations from Europe in glassware, pottery, mar- ble, vases and other receptacles in im- mense variety are on exhibition and meet with a good sale. Choice flower- ing plants, many of them rarely seen elsewhere, are always to be found here and the arrangement of everything is most artistic and pleasing.

Various Notes. "William H. Elliott arrived home from a nine months' California trip Thanks- giving day and looks remarkably well. He spent thirty days in the high Sierras, thirty days in the vicinity of the giant sequoias, and became an ex- pert mountaineer, geologist and alpine botanist. He made his headquarters at Berkeley, his daughter being one of the staff of the University of California. He is a great admirer of the Golden State and its wonderful scenery and re- sources, but says he felt impelled to tell Californians, when they became too chesty, that the mountains, big trees and other great features were works of the Almighty and that, while they had built the most wonderful university in the world at Berkeley, they failed to give it proper financial support. It would take much space to do justice to Mr. Elliott's description of what he saw in California. E. E. Wadsworth & Co., of North- boro, are bringing in a fine lot of a seedling carnation somewhat similar in color to Morning Glow, but much more double. They propose naming it Eve- lyn. Another seedling has some Pros- perity blood in it and strongly suggests that one-time favorite. Matchless, Benora, Pink Delight and Nancy are other kinds grown. The last named is not liked because the flowers have a sleepy look, even when undeveloped. A fine assortment of single and pom- pon mums, all raised from seed and the best sorts retained, made a decided hit for Thanksgiving. Since November 19 we have hardly «een the sun and have had considerable snow and rain, so that much of our shortage of precipitation has been made up. Nurserymen were specially glad to see abundant rains, which insure ever- greens coming through the winter well. Robert Hutcheon,of Stoughton, Mass., is retiring from the greenhouse busi- ness, in which he has been engaged for many years, and will now devote him- self entirely to gladiolus culture. He has sixteen acres of excellent land and a splendid storage cellar. His son will continue the greenhouse business.

Judd; vice-president, Harold A. Eyan; secretary, William N. Craig; treasurer, James Methven. Thomas Eoland had a fine lot of Erica melanthera for Thanksgiving, in addi- tion to splendid cyclamens, begonias, ferns and other plants. Sidney Hoffman, at his Massachusetts avenue store, featured choice foreign and domestic fruits largely, in addi- tion to plants and cut flowers, and his baskets of fruits and flowers were so attractive that there was little wonder that they met with a large sale. A. A. Pembroke, of North Beverly, now operates two large retail stores in Salem, and business in both is satis- factory this season. He grows a large proportion of the plants used, such as cyclamens, begonias, ferns, solanums, chrysanthemums, etc. In carnations, he now grows principally Benora, White Benora, Pink Delight and Matchless, with smaller lots of Rosette and one or two other sorts. One large house is planted with Columbia and Ophelia roses and a house of sweet peas has been in crop since early in October. There will be a further exhibit of orchids from A. C. Burrage, of Beverly Farms, at Horticultural hall, December 18. This will be the last of twelve notable displays made during 1920, un- questionably the most extensive and varied orchid displays over seen in America. They have been viewed by thousands of visitors on each occasion and have done much to encourage the love and culture of these beautiful plants. W. N. C. CLEVELAND, O. The Market. Thanksgiving week found the market pretty well cleaned up, and, while some of the retailers have complained that business has not been so good as here- tofore, the trade in general agrees that it was far better than a year ago. Of course, had the weather conditions been better, business naturally would have had more snap, but, as it was, we can- not complain. There seemed to be a decided scarcity of large mums, while carnations and roses were also inade- quate to take care of the demand. There seemed to be plenty of pompons.

The wholesale houses here all closed Thanksgiving day with the ex- ception of one, which was open only for about two hours and reported poor business for that short time. A few mignonettes and some myosotis made their appearance, while white and yellow narcissi arrived in good supply. Local roses were good, although some retailers complained that even these were too tight. Various Notes. John Kirchner has just returned from an extensive tour through New York and Pennsylvania, spending two weeks on the trip. Dr. H. Dux, of Jacksonville, Fla., was a visitor in town.

In School Days. From the confirmation, or first com- munion service, to commencement day there is no fixed service in wliicli to "Say It with Flowers" in the child's life. This period is taken up with ac- quiring an education, in which he usually gets some practical idea of the constituent parts of flowers in the study of botany, but how many of us can recall how little attention we paid to this study! Yet those of us who were fortiinate enough to go to a coun- try school could have given college professors cards and spades and then beat them regarding knowledge of the wild flowers that grew in our section. We knew nothing about long Latin names, but we did know where the flowers could be found, their habits and their medicinal value, if they had any. Any boy or girl could tell you where to look for the trailing arbutus, or when the dogwood would burst into flower. But school days are over, and happy families gather at the high school or college for the graduation exercises, and here we again find that the only way in which loved ones can express just what they feel is by "Saying It with Flowers. ' ' Perhajis a boy or girl of some humble home is the valedic- torian of the class; can those proud parents let such an occasion pass with- out "Saying It with Flowers"? The school building is decorated with flowers for the occasion. If in the city, great vanloads of palms are trans- ported from the florists to grace the oc- casion, together with cut blooms. If in the country, the children themselves will go to tiie woods and, once a year at least, convert that old building, which to many a boy has been little more than a prison, into a bower of flowers. Why is this being done! Young lives are being launched into the responsibilities of life, and as they step out into this new life, with all of their vigor and youth, what more fitting surroundings could there be than God's greatest handiwork, aside from human beings? Entering Life. But commencement days are over, and we find the boy and girl looking about for their life work, and at the same time life partner; both of these are sooner or later determined upon. Perhaps both of them have, in a man- ner, been settled back in school days, but the young miss has made her debut in society. New faces and new suitors come upon the scene, and the young man finds he has a warfare on his hands to hold her affections. Now, what more formidable weapon can be used in this battle than flowers? The two may have reached the age of manhood and woman- hood; it may be hard for her to decide, but his floral offerings will carry her back to childhood days: they will recall to her how some big, blundering, bash- ful boy once thought it an honor to carry her books, or if some boy teased her, how he was^ready to do battle for her. And as she looks at his flowers, and considers the traits of character possessed by this young man, her de- cision is made, and soon we shall hear the wedding bells ring out. Or we will take the young lady in the higher strata of soriety. She is launched into society in the most for- Decembeb 2, 1920 The Horists' Review 67 ~ The florlstf whot* earda •vpMtf on th* p«k«s earnrlnc this taMitf* air* piwpartd to fill orders .. — from ouior florlata for local d^vcrr on tlia omal ImmI*.

From this time on hers is a constant round of dinners, teas, dances and theater par- ties, until she, like the one mentioned above, comes to the valley of decision, and in this case the one who has de- pended most upon flowers to carry his message is usually the most successful one. We all know that in the eyes of the world money, position and pres- tige are supposed to be the deciding factors in these affairs, but this article is being written for the eyes of florists alone, who are on the inside in these matters. How many of you florists with store experience have seen flowers win out over all these, and have seen the young man with a short bank ac- count, struggling along in his profes- sion, walk off with the prize! How often have you heard some of her set say she had simply thrown herself away, that it was sad, when they think of the opportunities she had, to see her make such a decision! I can look about Jne today and pick out some of the most respected citizens of my city of whom this same thing was said. The man who knows how to "Say It with Flowers" is the man who has stamina and character suflScient to make for himself a reputation that a woman will live to be proud of. Crossing the Krisses Out of Krismas When you consider that for the two days pre- ceding, and on Christmas itself, we send out no less than 4,000 separate orders; you can well see that we have to have a well-thought-out system of handling them, or things would get beautifully balled up. We have tried the grouping system and the numbering system. Also holding each sales- man responsible for his orders. Likewise put- ting it all up to the head of our deliveries. Any of which were all right when our business was small, but sure did "Kriss Kross" things up when we had 4,000 deliveries to make. So Suko, the Jap; Tom, the Scotchman, and Jimmy, the Hybernian Hybrid, got together and schemed up a method that has them all beat. It might or it might not help you. Will be only too glad to write you full particulars, or ask Clarence E.

A wedding without a bride 's bouquet would be like the production of "Hamlet" with Hamlet left out.

D. that carried them to the station deco- rated with them. And it did not stop there, for often wo have telegraphed some florist to have a vase of flowers in the couple's room at the hotel when they arrived. Take another view of the situation. How often have wo had an (iloping couple come into the store and jjurehase a bouquet before the knot was tiedl Even in such a case it would not seem like a wedding if there were no flowers. Wlierever the marriage ceremony is celebrated in these days, no matter according to what denomination or creed, no matter if it be a civil cere- mony performed by a mayor or an al- derman, flowers will play a conspicuous part. The wedding is only the foundation for a new home, and there is not another word in the English language that stands for so much as that little word of four letters. I once heard home defined in these words: "Home is any abode where love dwells." Any of us will agree that this is a true definition. Well, assuming that love dwells in a home, then there are sure to be flowers in that home, for the two are insepara- ble. But it is a woman's hands that arc building this place we call home, and as she builds, every layer that she lays is cemented with love, till it be- comes so great that it must be shared. It would be selfish for two people to enjoy it, for we all know that there is no place for selfishness where love reigns, and so an all-wise God sends another life into this home and, in a manner, divides that love. In my first article I said "Say It with Flowers" opened an endless chain of possibilities. We see the same scene enacted hero as in the beginning of my first article, and one that will be re- enacted while time lasts. But space will not permit mo to go further in this article'. Right here I want to ask the florists of this country a question: Is it any wonder Major O'Keefe has such faith in our slogan, "Say It with Flowers"? Tate. MAX SCHUNG TELLS HOW.

If the florist does not know the bride per- sonally he should have a description of her and suit the bouquet to her style. A tiny, sylphlike bride must have a bouquet of quite different shape from the majestic bride who is large in every way. If the bouquet is too large the figure of the bride is spoiled and the work of the dressmaker lost. "At one time the flowers of the bride's bouquet were all a dead white, which is unbecoming. There are differ- ent shades of white — those which have a note of cream, an ivory white, and white with an accent of delicate green. Then if, tucked down in the heart of the bouquet, there is a little cluster of Sweetheart roses or of blue pansies, they will not be noticed in the ensem- ble, but they give a touch of warmth to the bouquet. "Many brides who wear orange flow- ers use the artificial ones. It is better to use the real ones, and a few of those are much more satisfactory than a large cluster of the imitation. Orange blos- soms are always expensive. They are greenhouse-grown. A large cluster of the blossoms and leaves on the top of the head is too heavy and unbecoming, anyway. I suggest just a few real blossoms catching the veil at the side. The effect is much that of a pearl pin, and fifteen or eighteen blossoms are more than sufficient. In this way the bride's head is free and her face is not dwarfed by the flowers. Do Not Hide the Bride. "In the same way in preparing the background for the bride the idea should always be in mind that it is the bride who is to be seen and that the flowers are secondary. Anyone who puts in a solid background of white and ATLANTIC CITY, N.J. Atlantic City Flower Shop 1519 Pacific Avenue Always a bis stock on hand of all kinds of Bowen and plants. Personal attention.

Not only her casual friends and acquaintances come to congratulate her, but her old, dear and warm friends, some from a long distance. They wish to embrace her closely; she wishes to give them both her hands and the bouquet stands be- tween as a barrier. At the end of a long reception she will consider it a burden rather than a beautiful bouquet, and it will probably have had all its freshness crushed out. A corsage bou- quet is much better. Home Has Character. "Mistakes can bo made in having too many flowers, and this is often done at receptions and small home weddings. It is vulgar to bank a house with flowers 80 that you can't tell what house it is. Houses, like people, have individuality. Your house has certain characteristics and charm to which your friends are accustomed, and if they come and find everything characteristic liidden with flowers they feel that they are in a strange place; they do not know where they are. "I wouldn't have a room turned into a forest bower then? Oh, yes, I might. That would be quite a different thing, a woodland scene, perhaps.

Just imagine the rice growers of this country running a cooperative advertis- ing campaign to stimulate a greater use of rice by spending $900,000 in the next three years, at the rate of $300,000 per year. Then think, if you will, what the florists have been able to do on their small yearly appropriation. The rice growers' slogan will be, "Eat More Rice," another suggestion which prob- ably grew from ' ' Say It with Flowers. ' ' Have you felt the business depression which so many other lines are having at the present, with many of them pes- simistic as to the immediate future? ~ Yet, in all sincerity, have not the florists cause for rejoicing in the fact that our business, at least with many, is holding up to last year, and in a majority of cases running ahead? Does it not feel as though we have accom- plished something unusual to be able to make this statement? Something was indirectly the cause; and wouldn't you like to give the national publicity cam- paign, backed up by local advertising, part of the credit for this condition, es- pecially where all other lines are falling behind?

Members Florists' Telegraph Delivery and plants, and lias not the effort made it worth while? Let's Go. Our campaign has had to rest, tem- porarily, for the lack of funds to carry on the work, and your committee hopes to start as soon as the amount necessary is available. Perhaps this might serve as a reminder to many who, as yet, have not sent in their subscriptions for 1920, so that we may make up our budget for 1921. The publicity committee has adopted the best policy for the future, in not making any expenditures until the fund is big enough to go ahead. Much of our recent success in .selling flowers has been due to the cooperation given by the trade generally, and we must keep up the nu)mentum, for it will be a much harder task to start again if we should dis- continue for too long a period. The committee on publicity will soon meet to make permanent plans for the near future and every branch of the business will be interested in the out- come. Send In Subscriptions. In the meantime, send in your sub- scription for 1920 to the secretary's of- fice, so that the campaign may have projx-r financial support, and you will have still greater results from the cam- paign which has been so fruitful to all who have participated. Surely, if the rice growers of the United States can raise $900,000 for three years, the flo- rists, who have more at stake, from an investment standpoint as well as being in greater numbers, should be able in the near future to do almost as well, particularly where we are our own dis- tributors. Will tlie florists be big enough to see advertising as a potential factor in the marketing of their product, as have the rice growers?

University Flower Show. Commercial florists contributed ex- hibits to the second annual chrysanthe- mum show given by the students of floriculture at the Ohio State Univer- sity, November 11 to 13, and according to H. P. Mulf ord, who had charge of the exhibition, they helped materially to win public favor. It is estimated that 20,000 persons attended the exhibition, many more than those in charge antici- pated. Letters urging the florists to send ex- hibits to the show were generously an- swered and the result was excellent dis- plays of chrysanthemums, roses and plants. There were 5,000 blooms ex- hibited, including 125 varieties. The Elmer D. Smith Co., of Adrian, Mich., had an excellent exhibit of chrys- anthemums and pompons of exhibition varieties. The displays of the J. M. Gasser Co., Cleveland, 0,, and the S. S. Pennock Co., Philadelphia, deserved much credit. J. D.

The large number of mums that were on the market for Thanksgiving was a big surprise. Between the Harmonie social, which was held at the Belvedere hotel November 24, and Thanksgiving day, Wednesday was one of the heav- iest flower days that the Baltimore market has experienced for some time. There was a fine supply of $4 and $5 mums, and these seemed to be just what the buyers wanted, for they cleaned up well. There were some of the large specials; the call was not for this quality, but after the mediums were disposed of the larger ones were used np also. Roses were only in fair supply. They have not reached normal production yet, but the quality was all that could be desired, and what was on the mar- ket cleaned up well. Carnations were in fair supply and of excellent quality. These, too, cleaned up. Violets were not so plentiful, and these, with sweet peas, were short, as there was a big de- mand for corsage stock. There was a fair supply of all miscellaneous stock, Paper Whites, stevia, etc., and every- thing cleaned up well. All retail stores report a splendid Thanksgiving bud- ness. Everyone cleaned up well, and nothing but the most satisfactory re- ports were heard. Prices advanced a little, but there was no material jump DETROIT A«ICI-IICA.N Orders given best of care by these five F. T. D. Members J.

John De Groot, the well-known spe- cialist in gladioli and other bulbs, who has a farm at Catonsville devoted to the production of bulbs, is also inter- ested in the United Bulb Growers, Inc., of Holland, and is traveling representa- tive of the concern in this country. Mr. De Groot is most enthusiastic about this new corporation, the object of which is to sell Holland-grown bulbs direct from the grower to the consumer. In organization it is similar to the asso- ciation of raisin growers of the Pacific coast. K. Klyn is the managing di- rector of the corporation in this coun- try, with offices at 040 TJroadway, Now York. Both of these men were raised in the bulb industry in Holland and understand tlie business thoroughly. About forty bulb growing firms in Holland arc now members.

The window setting was a dining room, with a well set table artistically deco- rated with flowers, the floral part of the decoration being changed each day. Miss Margaret Graham informs me that it is not so expensive as an ordinary window decoration. At this store I saw the scheme for a table decoration that is certainly a novelty. It con- sisted of three pumpkins, two of them with the tops cut off and the insides hollowed out; the third and largest was cut lengthwise, about one-third of tho side being cut away. This made it boat-shaped. These shells were filled with water and used in place of baskets and they made as pretty table pieces as I have ever seen. Miss Graham told me they had used 200 pumpkins for this purpose this fall. John J. Perry, of the S. S. Pennock Oo., was confined to the house for a few days last week with a severe cold. The next meeting of the club will be held Monday, December 13. Joseph S. Merritt, the new chairman of the entertainment committee, said at the last meeting that there would be some- thing doing every meeting night this winter, and it looks as if he intends to keep his word for this meeting. First, it will be a ladies' night, and every lady in any way connected with the business is urged to be present; then William F. Gude, of Gude Bros. Co., CHICAGO DETROIT Central Floral Co.

Daily del' veries to SUPERIOR. WIS, judging from orders. Fancy stock brought $6 easily, but other grades sold as low as $2.50. The top retail price was $18 and several shops report clean- ing these out first. Pompons were 75 cents wholesale, carnations $6 and $7, roses from $8 to $20 and California violets $2.50 per dozen bunches. After mums ranked roses and carnations, but pompons dragged a little, being put aside for carnations. Roses and carna- tions were short of the demand. Ship- ping business was heavy all week, but local demand was big, although many retailers used their own crops. Thanksgiving Beports. E. A. Humfeld: One man bought eight dozen big mums at $1.50 apiece. Business was bettor than last year. We shipped a good many mums to Columbia, Mo., for the football game. Adolph D. Mohr: We cleaned up on mums and sold a good many carnations and plants. R. S. Brown & Son: It was the best Thanksgiving day business we ever had. We sold out on mums and other stock, and enjoyed nice out-of-town trade. August Luther, Jr.: Business was better than a year ago. We cleaned up on big yellow mums. Our trade was steady up to 5 o'clock Thursday after- noon. We sold many pots of cyclamen and shipped some large orders, besides having a big run of funeral work Wed- nesday and Friday. J. R. McGrail: Business was good, fully up to last year. William Foith: Just about cleaned up on everything. Most of the sales were for small quantities of flowers, but we sold some potted plants. Humfeld-Orear Floral Co.: Business was better than a year ago. There was more buj'ing in smaller quantities. There is reason to believe that this is a good indication of a heavy Christmas business.

Customers took three and four mums at $1.50 each, in preference to half a dozen or more of the $12 and $15 stock. Linwood Floral Co.: We kept open until 8 o'clock Thursday evening and had a wedding Friday. A. F. Barbe: We did the best in years. There were no complaints on prices. We had a good crop and cleaned up. J. E. Murray & Co.: Everything was lovely and there was not a hitch. Wednesday and Thursday were both big days. The number of $10 and $20 bills in evidence was unusual. Peterson Floral Co.: We cleaned up on everything aside from regular stock. Business was much better than last year. We had a big wedding last week. The Rosery: Business could have been better and could have been much worse. We had bought carefully and had only one vase of yellow and two vases of white mums left. These were used Friday. Regular customers did not buy as much as transients and sales ranged from 50 cents for pompons to half a dozen mums at $1.50 apiece. Various Notes. The William L. Rock Flower Co. had twenty-five orders for a debutante party November 27. This is the first social affair of this kind in four or five years. Miss Nancy McCall and Samuel Craw- ford were married in the Episcopal church at Pleasant Hill, Mo., November 24. Mr. Crawford is a rose grower at the Pinehurst Floral Co.

Reports on Thanksgiving business were generally satisfactory. Prices were good and showed a slight increase over last year, but the volume of busi- ness was slightly smaller. Mums received the big call, and the abundance of these held down the sale of roses and carnations. The mums were not so good as have been offered, but the price was much higher.

PEOVIDENCE, R. I. The Market. There was an unusually active de- mand for cut flowers for Thanksgiving day, but, following that, business the rest of the week took a bad drop. Prices, however, held up, being but slightly affected, as the continued dark weather depleted the supply. Eoses and carnations are more in de- mand as the reign of the chrj'santhe- mum passes. Ijeague Show. Hailed as the greatest exhibition of the kind that has ever been held in Rhode Island, the show of the Ehode Island League of Agricultural Associa- tions, at the state armory last week, fulfilled every expectation of its spon- sors and, it is believed, will become an annual occurrence. Included in the associations that compose the league are the Rhode Island Horticultural So- ciety, whose annual chrysanthemum show was one of the features of the exhibition; the Rhode Island Corn Growers' Association, the Rhode Island Fruit Growers' Association and the Market Gardeners' Association. Just inside the main hall bowers of ferns, palms, rhododendrons and other or- namental plants did their best to camou- flage the big coast artillery guns. To the right and left extended long tables of cabbage-sized chrysanthemums. Among these the extensive and varied display by Frederick S. Peck was note- worthy. The Maplehurst Greenhouses, of Longmeadow; the Foster Green- houses, of Warwick Neck; Albert Hol- scher, of Hartford avenue, and John A. Macrae, of Smith street. Providence, were the principal exhibitors. Native-grown rhododendrons featured the exhibit of the Lowland Rhododen- dron Farm, Kingston. Among the foliage plants and flowers shown by R. & J. Farquhar Co., of Boston, was a new variety of Japanese juniper, Juniperus chinensis virginalis, and a rare kind of pine, Picea albertiana, now about one foot tall, but capable of reaching a height of 100 feet. A giant cibotium with a 15-foot spread formed the center of Fred S. Davis's collection, from Pawtucket, which in- cluded Scotch heather, fuchsias and chrysanthemums. Especially interesting was a small but fine collection of new hybrid car- nations shown by Strout's, Biddeford, Your trade will appreciate — this handsome, classic creation. It is an inex- pensive Jardiniere, made of waterproofed wood fiber, decorated with attractive desigrns and finished in Wedsfwood colors — €[ ideal for cut flowers, potted plants, ferns, baskets and s^eneral dec- orative purposes. €L so inexpensive that many florists use it as a part of their regular de- livery service. iLsend for illustrated folder and quotations. €L do this now, while the matter is still before you.

Austin, of this city, who was planning to remove to Deerfield, Fla., has changed his plans and will remain here for the present. Capitola, Cal. — J. A. Brown, who re- cently returned from Europe, has an- nounced that he has secured the services of Carl De Ryk, an expert bulb grower of the Haarlem bulb district, Holland, and that Mr. De Ryk has arrived here to take up his new duties. Mr. De Ryk will have charge of the growing of Euro- pean bulbs. Pasadena, Cal. — A. W. Jannoch, pro- prietor of the nurseries bearing his name, which were established in 1906, says he believes the shipping of plants from California is only in its infancy. He believes that California growers can supply many plants not procurable else- where and that the development of a large business depends only upon devis- ing methods which will insure safe transportation. LOS ANGELES, CAL. The Market. Chrysanthemums are about cleaned up in this market, owing to the big Thanks- giving day business. All the mums were purchased early, causing prices to rise, the larger varieties bringing as high as $4 per dozen wholesale. There are plenty of good pompons and small mums of good quality. Roses are scarce. Every grower of roses in this market seems to be cropping for Christmas. If nothing unforeseen happens, there will be a good supply of roses for Christmas. Poinset- tias made their first appearance last week and were of fair quality. Sweet peas and violets are more plentiful. Indoor carnations are scarce, but the field varieties are plentiful and of good quality. All the wholesalers report n big shipping business for Thanksgiving. "White Man's Market." The regular meeting of the Los Angeles Florists' Club was called to order on Friday evening, November 26, at 6:30 o'clock, at Christopher's cafe, but was immediately ordered ad- journed and a special meeting was called to order for the purpose of discussing the organization of a "white man's flower market" in Los Angeles. A motion was made by Frank Warner that an organization be formed and supported by individual subscriptions. An amenduient, judviding that each member sliouM (-(iiitribute .$10 monthly towards the siijipurt of the organiza- tion, was c.'irried. F. H. Howard moved that a commit- tee of three be appointed, consisting of one retailer, one wliolesaler and one grower, to investigate the cost of such an organization and report back to the body at the next meeting, Decciiiher 3. This committee consists of Fred Sjierry, Arthur Howard and H. N. Gage. In order to find out what sup])ort the organization would get from the trade, Tom Wright made a motion that a com- mittee be appointed to report on how many growers and others would agree to purchase space in the market. F. R. Hills, Mr. Polder and Gebhard Prechtl form the committee. A committee composed of F. H. Howard, Tom Wright and Walter Arma- cost was appointed to investigate the organization of the Southern California Horticultural Association with the idea of taking it over. Walter Armacost had the support of the body in a motion to take steps for incorporation. Various Notes. Charles Morton, manager of the Dono- frio Floral Co., Phoenix, Ariz., made a hurried trip to Los Angeles by automo- bile to purchase stock for the Christ- mas holidays. Robert Newcomb is here on one of his regular visits. A ])etition asking that Wall street, between Fourth and Fifth street, be a permanent flower market, where flowers may be sold from trucks or wagons be- tween 5 and 8 a. m., was passed at a recent meeting of the city council. Walter Amling is bringing in fine quality Columbia roses regularly. He is consigning most of his stock to the E. C. Amling Co. Wright's cyclamen plants, on display in one of the big wholesale houses of this city, are some of the finest ever seen on the market. Walter Garbett, manager of the E. C. Amling Co., reports an unusual Thanks- giving business. He said that large ship- ments of mums were made to the Chi- cago market and from all reports they arrived in fine shape. By the time this is printed the company will be making preparations for moving into its perma- nent home, which is a building 50x100 feet, situated in the heart of the flower market. A 10-year lease is held on the entire building. SAN FEANCISCO, CAL. The Market. The drenching downpour that marked a great part of last week did consider- able temporary mischief to the chrys- anthemums. Most of the local shippers had large Thanksgiving orders and, just about the time they were filling the orders for distant points, the mums were wet and not in satisfactory condition for shipping. To add to the worries of the shippers, the growers, seeing the scar city of satisfactory shipping mums, raised the price. "And they'll blame us," said one large shipper, alluding to the upward trend of the mum market. However, there were some fine days in between and at the end of the week most of the shippers were smiling and satisfied, because they managed to get their shipments off in satisfactory con dition. The local market last week was brisk. The outdoor mums have suffered less from the rain, in the long run, than have those grown under canvas. The two days of sunshine have had a good drying effect on mums and there are many grown under cover in the local market that appear to be in a satisfac- tory condition. Many shippers are send- ing away large consignments of the outdoor mums, which are plentiful, of good variety and can be found in a vast range of autumn tints, as well as in pinks and other more conventional hues. The pink canvas-grown mums are much more plentiful than are those in white and yellow. Violets were abundant and of excel lent quality. Roses were becoming more plentiful. Carnations were scarcely plentiful enough to supply the local mar ket. California red berries, for Thanks giving, were fairly plentiful and of good quality, for the most part. Various Notes.

NEW REPUBLICAN ZINNIAS (FRASER'S GIANT PICOTEE, PRIZE ZINNIAS) The blossoms are of new colors, coral-pink, carmine-rose, garnet-red, snow-white, orange and rich apricot- yellow, with various hues at the ends of the petals. Some are tipped with chocolate, terra cotta or rich crimson. This giant strain of ours made its appearance in the Los Angeles market and was higbly prized by growers.

Say It with Flowers" was the heading over a page-length picture of a pretty girl hold- ing flowers. Below was the statement that the Retail Florists' Association means to inaugurate Sunday closing, beginning with January 9, 1921. It is the association's intention to advertise nationally next year. Bulbs continue to be much in demand, both for house and garden uses. C. Kooyman is much gratified by the con- tinued demand. "Roses have been scarce, but they are coming in nicelv from our nurseries now," stated the E. W. McLcHan Co. A big Thanksgiving demand for yellow, pink and bronze mums is reported by this firm. The roses coming in from the nurseries are Russell, Columbia, Hadley, Ophelia and Premier. J. A. Axell 's growers are all cutting more roses. They are particularly strong on Russell, which is of fine quality. The Peninsula Nursery Co., San Mateo, Cal., is sending Mr. Axell some of its Laddie carnations, which are of such remarkable size and of such rich pink color that the demand far exceeds the supply. Good carnations being scarce, unusually good ones are almost at a premium. As an experiment, General A. J. Gooch shipped a considerable consignment of violets to New York city. The morning of November 24 he had returns from his consignee, who stated in his letter that the flowers had arrived in excellent shape. The general has some dried straw- flowers which he dried in a new way, as an experiment. They have retained their color to an unusual degree. Next sea- son he means to dry strawflowors on a large scale. At present he is sold out. Joseph's, who always adil to the ekf- fect of flower displays by bird cages and bowls of goldfish, have had in their window a tall stand for a canary cage all embowered in smilax and yellow mums, giving a strikingly decorative ef- fect.

Having a wife and four children to support, we have always declined his kind offers to take us up— besides, we were afraid. So we had Mr. Darling snap it for us. The above is the result. It shows very well the 15 acres of greens — three entire blocks — and the spread of glass. But it does not show what is inside. Houses crammed full of good stock— you couldn't find an empty space with a search warrant. And the quality ! It makes your mouth water to look at our Roses and blooming plants.

A general inereaso has been noted in work in all lines in the last week, with funeral work and decorations sharing the greatest increase.

Scattered consignments of Dutch bulbs continue to arrive, a few cases reaching New York on almost every steamer from Eotterdam.

During the last six weeks ])rices for red and sweet clover and alfalfa seed have continued to tumble, but alsike clover prices have held their own and have even shown a gain in some sec- tions, according to information obtained by the bureau of markets of the United States Department of Agriculture. Seedsmen are in no hurry to buy and it still is diflQcult for them to secure loans from banks for purchasing seed. Several seedsmen have failed and others have tottered largely because of the un- precedented decline in jirices of field seeds, particularly clover and alfalfa. The marked drop in seed values may be accounted for in a large measure by the general price declines being ex- perienced by other ccniurifidities. Ex- ports and imports of these seeds since July 1 have been of little signifieaiice. There is no world shortage of red clover seed nor curtailed sujiiily of alsike clover seed to duoy up tlic market, as there was two years ago. On the con- trary, fairly large carryovers of red cliiver, sweet clover and alfalfa seed, resulting from unusually large iniimrts during the late winter iiioiillis of last year and the early spring niontlis of this year, have had a depressing effect upon the market. Furthermore, the larger domestic production of these crops this year than last year has tended to make buyers cautious. Growers have been reluctant to dis- pose of their seed at such heavy dis- counts below prices received last year nnd consequently the seed movement from their hands has been much below normal. It is thought that many of them will continue to hold their seeds and that they themselves will sow larger acreages next spring and summer rather Our OlBces and Warehouses at Llsse, Holland Pioneer Growers and Exporters of BULBS of Every Description M.

'A contract to perform an impossible thing may be void, but it never is impossible to pro- cure and deliver an article of commerce which may be had in the market in some quarter of the world.' . . . 'It must be impossibility, not diflSculty, that will excuse from performance of a contract.' " S. WORTH NOTING NOW. As in other industries, conditions iu the florists' business have changed. For the last two years demand has so ex- ceeded supply that anything could be sold, usually with little effort. The seller has been in command, arbitrary as to prices and intolerant of criticism of stock or methods. Now the bud is on the other bush; supply lias increased while demand temporarily has de- creased, with the result that the buyer again controls the situation. Selling will not be so easy as in recent seasons; advertising, while it still will be the chief and cheapest means of moving stock, will not bring the unprecedented response produced in the last two sea- son.s. To make it pay it will be neces- sary to make a thoughtful selection of methods and mediums. That the subject has begun to receive attention is aji- parent: Ah a meani* of rfiK-hiiiK Ili»' tr.Kif The Uc- vlew Ik king of the crowd. — .loBciih H. Ciiimiiit:- ham. Delaware, O., November 18, W20. If you hear a man coni])lain of the cost of advertising you can be pretty certain he spends a good bit of money elsewhere than in The Review. Kokomo, Ind. — L. B. Hensley, who has been chief gardener at the National Home, Danville, 111., has engaged with W. W. Coles as general foreman, at that veteran florist's greenhouses here. Mr. Hensley is a former commercial florist with many friends who will welcome him back into the business end of the trade. Easton, Pa. — Though the Easton fire department estimated the damage caused by the fire on the night of Octo- ber 28 at Adolph Fischer's greenhouses at $5,500, Mr. Fischer does not think the loss will be so much. Many plants, however, were destroyed and the struc- ture was much damaged. The fire started from an overheated boiler.

Ahundant autumn rains are welcomed by nurserymen as assistance to the ever- s^reons through the winter. The second number of the Associa- tion Bulletin, dated December 1, 1920, has just been sent by Secretary John Watson to members of the American Association of Nurserymen. Secretary Watson's pen is one of the main reasons for the interesting quality of its eight pages. One way of keeping a crew of compe- tent men together is that employed by D. A. Robinson and F. H. Robinson, of Everett, Mass. D. Robinson's Sons are landscape gardeners. They do anything from pruning a lilac to handling large es- tates. A large crew is employed near home in the summer. To keep the forc" as nearly intact as possible, similar jobs are sought in the south for the winter and the men are sent to Florida. A. A. N. APPOINTMENTS. President Stark Names Committees.

"Heretofore the ornamental nurserymen have been in the minority in our association, not alone in membership, but in the activities of our organization. This is wrong. In view of our dual capacity the membership of our officers should be fifty-fifty." "The public demands reliability and service. Give them these and our ac- tivities will not be questioned by those who place confidence in us and the prod- ucts we sell. Our prosperity depends on fair dealing and honest methods. Our organization should be founded upon the desire to render public service as much as for mutual helpfulness and protec- tion." The retiring president then suggested that the executive committee should be authorized and instructed by the conven- tion to "renovate the organization; to devise plans and methods to enlarge the activities of the association and make it the leading factor in the horticulture of the state, and to draft a code of ethics to be rigidly observed and enforced upon all members." Expansion Spells Expense. "You can't buy ))rpa(l on air. No more can you make the California Asso- ciation of Nurserymen a potent factor in horticulture on an annual deluge of rhetoric," asserted President Berg- tholdt. He then appealed to the mem- bers that a financial budget be made for a period of five years and that every member underwrite it for a yearly sum of $1 for every $1,000 of yearlv' busi- ness. "Do this," he stated, ".-ind for every dollar in money and effort you contribute to an association adequately supported you will be repaid tenfold in the standing and prosperity of your busi- ness in the era to come." The speaker suggested that a perma- nent membership committee be ap- pointed and that efforts be made to pre- vail upon every nurseryman, florist and seedsman to .ioin the association. "The California planter demands, above all things, quality," said Mr. Bergtholdt in conclusion. "He is willing to pay the price and he expects the prod- uct to be the best that good nursery workmanship can deliver. We should maintain a high standard of both quality and grade. The planter will call us to an accounting, and his confidence in us spells our success." Noblesville, Ind.— H. O.

Last week saw tlie heaviest suowfall that tliis vicinity lias experienced in a good many years. It did not hurt busi- ness in the h;ast. Thanksgiving busi- ness is fine. Tlicre are plenty of fall flowers to meet the demand of the public. Our mums are most wonderful this year, and are in great demand. We have- an extra fine lot of pompons. Roses and carnations are fine for so early in the season. Sweet peas are starting to come in now and they are in great demand for corsages. Potted plants are in great demand. They consist of cyclamens and pompons. Various Notes. The Fifth Avenue Floral Co. has had an exceedingly large corsage business this fall. Funeral work and wedding decorations are still in great demand. The Rolf Zetlitz Co. is cutting a large number of roses. Underwood Bros, have been busy with funeral work. They are buying some of Leo Miller's fine cyclamens. T. J. Ludwig has been cutting some fine mums. Employees of the Munk Floral Co. motored to Richmond, Ind., last week.

The carnation house was completely destroyed and consider- able glass throughout the establishment was broken. Paul Kopanka, owner of the company, says that the property destroyed will be rebuilt. WiUiamsville, N. Y. — Seventeen inches of heavy snow November 17 caused the roof of a greenhouse, 30x100 feet, owned by C. B. Shisler, to give way. The building, which was com- pletely wrecked, and its contents de- stroyed, was valued at $3,500.

The Market. Tlic vdlumc (if business for Thiuiks- giviiig was satisfactory. Stock was more iiloiitiful tliaii during the previous week, wlien an acute scarcity was felt in several lines, due to weather condi- tions. Out-of-town business was brisk and the result was that almost every kind of stock cleaned up well. Despite the usual lull in business which follows a holiday, the end of the week found the wholesalers almost entirely sold out. Table and hardy ferns were in large demand, and the supply was good througliout the week. Little stock of any description went on the streets, due to the sharp advances in price. Various Notes. We do not know who engineered this deal, but a clerk from the Oehmler Floral Co. has located with the Dupont Flower Shop, one from the Dupont Flower Shop is with Z. D.

Most of the local florists report a fine Thanksgiving trade. All are glad of this, as general business has been rather quiet this fall. We have had remark- ably warm weather. People who had their own gardens were well supplied with outdoor flowers until nearly the middle of November, when the first killing frost of the season reached here. As a number of people are out of em- ployment in the city, many who have been in the habit of patronizing the florists' shops frequently, are now un- able to do so. Pompon mums were in greatest de- mand for Thanksgiving table decora- tions. Chrysanthemums, ranging in price from $3 to $6 a dozen, were also popular. A plentiful supply of carna- tions, snapdragons. Paper Whites, callas and roses was on hand. Although many violets and red chrys- anthemums were sold for the Tale-Har- vard game, some of the members of the local trade report that, on account of the high price of violets, fewer were sold than last year. However, some shops were cleaned out. Various Notes. A pretty Thanksgiving window deco- ration was seen at the Bosery. Mr. Pflomm reports that his store was a busy place the day before Thanksgiv- ing. Bobert H. Hawkins says that he had a good Thanksgiving trade. Victor Carwardine has furnished a number of wedding bouquets recently and has decorated for several weddings. Thanksgiving trade was quite satisfac- tory, as he was completely cleaned out. John Beck & Son report that on ac- count of the remarkable weather a great deal of outside work is being done, as there is no frost in the ground as yet. Window boxes are being filled and cemetery work is being done. Thanks- giving trade was splendid and a good Christmas trade is anticipated. James Horan & Son say that trade in general has been rather quiet because the local factories are laying o£E so many people. However, business for both the football game and Thanksgiv- ing was satisfactory. I. L. B. A. N. PIERSON INCORPORATED Growers of Plants, Cut Flowers Palms and Ferns CROMWELL, CONNECTICUT.

Piped in this way, there will be no occa- sion for using air valves. PITTSBITRGH, PA. The Market. The cut flower business held its own for Thanksgiving, but the old expres- sion, "best ever," is not so much in evidence as it has been for several years anLong the retailers. However, they all did well and had a good trade, which went along without any great rush. The weather was unusually bad, with continued rain November 23 and 24. The wonder is that they did so well, and had the weather been right, no doubt business would have been better. The wholesale houses cleaned up nicely. Local chrysanthemums were done and the last of the pompons were sold before Thanksgiving. There were many chrysanthemums shipped in, most of which arrived rather soft and small and sold only because there is always a demand for chrysanthemums for Thanksgiving. Chrysanthemums are done for this season. The flowers now offered for sale are Beauties, roses, carnations, lilies. Paper Whites, Romans, stevia, calendulas, yellow daisies, asparagus strings and bunches, Mexican ivy, leu- cothoe, galax and ferns. Boxwood and lycopodium arc moving rapidly. Various Notes. Mrs. E. A. Williams, Inc., has installed an automatic refrigerator in its show and stock boxes, which is giving good satisfaction. Since ice continues to get more expensive each year, mechanical refrigeration begins to attract more at- tention. Besides it keeps the boxes at a more even temperature and avoids the dirt resulting from liandling quan- tities of ice. The Pittsburgli Cut Flower Co. is forcing pussy willow and is showing some nice stock from three to four feet long. The bad weather seems to have had some effect on the employees of the Pittsburgh Cut Flower Co. Last week the company was short five persons on account of an illness something like the grip. W. T.

Eeports show that Thanksgiving this year was probably the best in the his- tory of the Denver trade and, with more stock, would have been even bet- ter. Chrysanthemums were all gone early and there was a marked shortage, especially of first-class stock, in all other lines. Almost everything in cut stock is likely to be short for some time. There was no slackening in trade the day after the holiday and no change in prices. Cyclamens, cinerarias and begonias sold well. Thanksgiving day shipping was especially heavy. Various Notes. The Park Floral Co. reports a splen- did Thanksgiving day trade. This company's Christmas stock is coming on in fine shape. It has large quantities of fine cinerarias and cyclamens. The American Flower Shop had some pink mums on display last week. H. A. Clausen reports an unusual amount of corsage work lately. This establish- ment has a new delivery truck. George H.

NEW ORLEANS, LA. Harry Papworth still presides over the destinies of the Metairie Ridge Nursery Co., and the roses and other Btoclc look fine. The big demand at the Carondelet store cannot be met by the cut from the company's ranges and many roses and stock of other kinds are shipped in from Chicago. The store is most attractive, showing the careful management of Charles Schottmeyer, who is a busy man all the time. U. J. Virgin, on Canal street, is one of the oldest established florists and carries a good line. His plants of Areca lutescens, which he grows him- self, are fine and healthy and are pleas- ingly arranged in the store.

The Drumm Seed & Floral Co. is an old established business and Mr. Drumm always has time, busy as he is, to talk interestingly to visitors.

Baker are the leading lights in the fine store of Baker Bros., the former running the nursery end, the latter the flower end. There are several ladies in the family, too, and thcv nil work together.

Then later, after it had been introduced, I saw it being effectively used not only to put the rose-bug out of busi- ness on roses, but to do the same when they had attacked rho- dodendron flowers in a prominent garden near Philadelphia. I keep it on hand, and would not hesitate a fraction of a second about putting it in use as soon as the bugs appeared, because I believe it is the best available remedy for this nasty pest.

With Thanksgiving over, and with chrysanthemums finishing their season, stock is scarce. The chrysanthemums were exceptionally good this fall and were in heavy demand. With their de- cline, the market has suffered. Eoses remain scarce. The majority of stock ranges from $6 to $25, although some shorts are available at $4 and $5. Carnations are in good favor. With an accelerated demand, they have risen in price to $6 per hundred. Laddie is bringing $8. Some carnations of poorer quality are selling at $4 and $5 per hun- dred. A few pompon mums and some large late varieties are appearing, but the mum season is practically over. Sweet peas have not been arriving in large supply. A great deal of bad weather has retarded the growth in this locality. A few lilies are seen. Calen- dulas are brightening the shop windows. Funeral work has taken a great many flowers. Decorations for parties and weddings have also been numerous this fall. Potted plants have been in demand and are now beginning to come to the front with Christmas so near. Mum plants are gone, but cherries, begonias, primroses and ferns arc available. Cyc- lamens are not yet ready, as the blooms are meager. It is a little early to try to forecast Christmas stock, as so much depends upon the weather, but all feel confident there will be no oversupply, if there is enough to meet the demand. Various Notes. Temperley's have a splendid lot of plants for the Christmas trade. These include Jerusalem cherries, primroses, cyclamens, begonias and ferns. Baur & Steinkamp's new pink chrys- anthemum scored 92 points in Chicago last week, when scored by the Chrys- anthemum Society's committee. This mum is in its third year and will be disseminated next spring. A. F. J. Baur (REG. U. S. PATENT OFF.)

The Sarver Floral Co. makes a spe- cialty of Evonymus japonica and finds a ready sale for thousands of plants in all sizes at remunerative prices. The same is true of the McKinney Nursery, where Mr. Bobinson and his courteous staff had all they could do and cleaned up well. H. E. B. Dbcembeb 2, 1920 The Florists' Review 143 EYERTITE GLAZING CEMENT Here's the story: — The reasons why Evertite Glazing Cement has largely displaced putty in greenhouse construction are apparent to anyone who has had Evertite on his sash bars. Putty consists of whiting and boiled linseed oil. Linseed oil evaporates and when the oil is gone from putty, only whiting remains. It isn't any wonder it lets go and the glass blows out. Evertite Glazing Cement is made of pure rock asbestos, combined with non- drying adhesive oils and Gilsonite. It will not run or harden under either ex- treme of temperature. It will not check, crack or let go, but always retains its plastic, rubber-like condition. The only chance to make putty hold is to put it under the glass. Quite the opposite, Evertite is run around the edges, lapping over on top of the glass. The glass really holds the putty in (for a while); but Evertite holds the glass in— for years and years. Evertite Glazing Cement, remaining always rubber-like, will contract and expand as the greenhouse roof heaves under the wind. The Glazing cement does not crack— nor will the glass. The correct way to apply Evertite Glazing Cement is through the "Oh Boy" glazing gun. The cement flows in a pencil-like stream and stays where you put it. There is no other gun so good. Heretofore the chief use of Evertite Glazing Cement has been to repair roofs weakened, loosened and leaking byif|,the disintegration of putty. But many hun- dreds of thousands of feet of new glass this season will be glazed with Evertite. Their owners can forget the glazing problem for the next five to ten years. Evertite Glazing Cement will cost no more than first-class putty, but if putty were free, Evertite would be cheaper — because of the saving in labor, not to say worry. Evertite can be had in kegs, half bar- rels and barrels. The "Oh Boy" glazing gun is furnished only with Evertite Glazing Cement.

Therefore we do not believe it is necessary to employ high-pressure salesmanship in selling Callahan Cut-to-Fit Greenhouses . Our sales policy is based on this belief. Our sales efforts are a aervice rather than a "drive" for orders. We consider it our duty to give to every greenhouse buyer full information regarding Callahan Greenhouses, in order that he may make an intelligent comparison and decision. But we stop with that. We do not try to force or scare an order out of anyone. We do not "pester" prospects until they have to buy to get rid of us. You may write to us for an estimate that will require several hours' work to prepare. We will prepare it gladly— and without feeling that you are under one iota of obligation to us. Because that is our sales policy. We want enthusiastic, satisfied customers — not the "wish-I-had" kind. We want Callahan Cut-to-Fit Greenhouses to be bought — not sold. And we know we will succeed with this policy, because Callahan Greenhouses are the kind that speak for themselves. We would appreciate the opportunity of serving YOU when you are next in the market, CALLAHAN DUO-GLAZED SASH CO., 1856 FOURTH STREET, DAYTON, OHIO PERMANITE IN STOCK FOR IMMEDIATE SHIPMENT.

TTTHEX we find out what some folks ' * do, we wonder when under heaven they ever do any sleeping-. Our good friend Didato is one of that kind. If he evei' does stop working on or in his house, we have never happened to catch him. In fact, if he ever dot's sleep, have a notion he only shuts one eye at a time, like a New York fireman. If there is one kind of a customer more than another, we like, it is the fellow who starts small and grows up. We take no i;nd of interest in giving such men all possible help. Didato now has throe of our iiouse.s. One Sweot Pea House, '2S .\ li>0 feet, he lini.^ht'd erecting tlie past summer. Of course, nt)ne of us can tell what anybody's future is going to be, but one thing wo can say. and that is, if Mr. Didato keeps on going at his present high goar paee, it won't l)e long before you will lu'ar him spoken of as "'one of the big Jersey growers." \ HitcKin£rs°'"'Contpanv' General Offices and Factory, ELIZABETH, N.

One of these questions will be: "Why have you postponed making those improvements your business has needed for lo, these many months? What honest reason have you for not building houses in which to grow more stock that you know you can dispose of as easily as you do your present output?" You may answer that you haven't had time, or that prices of building materials have been too liigh. But neither of these answers will satisfy your real self. It will probably ask in answer to the first: "Have all the many things to which you have given time been of more importance than this? Have they contributed more to the advancement of your estate, your family's well-being and the accomplishment of your ambition?" It will probably ask in answer to the' second: "Did you avail yourself of the opportunity to act when there was a drop in the price of building materials? Time flies and prices change. Now that prices have declined, have you protected yourself from an advanceby getting an estimate and signing a contract at present AGMCO figures?" You still have a few weeks before mirror time — before your real self strips the padding from the excuses for inaction you have been making to yourself. So, why not take advantage of this time to place yourself in a position to give answers to these questions that will make the eyes in the mirror smile into your eyes? You have only to let us know what you wish and we will give you an estimate without delay on prices that average QCTn/ Ir^iTTOT ^tj /O lOWtyl than tiiey have been since the war l)egan.

It Is a saving in both pocking «nd expresK charges. For T ('hristmas. Instead of marking sales tickets uj) to take advantage of the holi- iJMv rush, these stores are marking them down. There is the disposition, quite opposite to that of a year ago, to hang on to one 's money instead of flinging it away. The same situation seems to be prevalent in most retail lines. In this situation there is no cause for jicssimism, no reason for gloomy fore- l)oding. There is, instead, need for ener- getic efforts to encourage purchases of flowers for Chistmas. The pul)lic is go- ing to buy Christmas gifts, about as many as usual and in a liberal spirit, when the time comes. And they'll buy flowers, if we urge them to. The time calls for activity and energy, more of it than ever, and forceful advertising — one means of which is to make your store reflect the Yuletide spirit. FEASTS' FEATXJEE F. T. D. One of the most ardent workers in be- half of the F. T. D. in Baltimore is the firm of Samuel Feast & Sons. An in- stance of their efforts in this direction was their recent window disjjlay giving publicity to telegraph delivery. In it the F. T. D. emblem was used as the central figure. Mercury speeding on his winged sandals, on top a globe on which the continents were florally outlined. Along the front of the window ran tele- graph wires on miniature poles. At either side were huge reproductions of blanks of the two telegraph companies. In the foreground were posters in re- gard to wire service. Palms, blooming plants and baskets of cut flowers brought forcibly to mind that the sub- ject was not merely telegraph delivery, but the telegraph delivery of flowers. The window was deserving of all the notice and comment it received from those who stopped at 331 North Charles street to view it. SHIPPING PAPER WHITES. What is the best method of cutting and packing Paper White narcissi for sliiiiment to market? E. B. E, — Mich. Cut and tie in bunches of twenty-five spikes with some foliage at back. Make the bunches flat at back. Use some white paper to separate each bunch. Rather shallow shipping boxes, holding single layers, are preferred. C. W.

By MAX SCHLING. Plant Shortage Demands Preparation. A year ago we made preparation for [Ihristmas more carefully than other ^ears on account of missing many va- rieties of Christmas plants. We have to do so much more this year. Labor sonditions are still unsettled, and busi- ness conditions are naturally more or less affected. Many large growers in certain sections of the country reduced their growing capacity on account of being unable to secure sufficient coal. Many found certain articles which they grew last year unprofitable in compari- son with other articles and are growing stock not used so much for holidays but for other seasons of the year. The stock available last Christmas in flowering and berried plants was of a different nature from the stock in previous years. The general assort- ment consisted of araucarias, cyclamens, camellias, begonias, crotons, Pandanus Veitchii, the different varieties of heathers, poinsettias, cherries, oranges and well colored dracsenas, with a nom- inal amount of azaleas, Pyrus Malus and Viburnum Sinus. Meeting Low-Price Demands. At one time we had no difficulty in filling orders for small plants in other years, using small azaleas, cyclamens, ardisias or oranges. In later years the price on these plants has gone up con- tinuously. The cheapest plants we could purchase last year were Cleveland cherries at $1.50 apiece wholesale and poinsettias in 4-inch pots with one small, perfect flower at $1.50. The decorating of a plant of this kind where, as in the city of New York, the flower buying public is exceedingly dis- criminating, can be nothing cheap. People do not want a piece of crepe paper, which looks mussed up within a day or two. We have to use natural green sheet moss to cover the pot, have to decorate the base of the plant with asparagus, pussy willow, etc., and have to use good ribbon on the plant. That almost doubles the wholesale price of the plant. So when we get an order for a $3 or $4 plant for a customer from out of town or a customer calls to buy a plant at a lower price, it is hardly possible to give something good. Service Builds Sales. Every plant we sell should add to our prestige. Florists may have ])rices alike, but do widely varying business. What gives one florist the larger busi- ness and increases his sales is the good service which he gives customers. Therefore, when a customer comes to us during the holidays and wants an inexpensive plant and we wish to serve him well, we should not try to sell him a .Jerusalem cherry or a small poin- settia or a cheap cyclamen, which will only live a short while, but we should use one of the well colored dracaenas, a croton, even a good fern or a Pan- danus Veitchii. Decorated prettily with berries or holly, these will last and give pleasure to the customer through their lasting quality. We are able to sell such plants for $4 or $5, and they will give our business more credit than the lower-priced flowering plants. For "Candy Customers." We have observed this policy and found that our small customers appre- ciate our efforts. From year to year we increase our sales on this type of goods and our customers benefit, and the fact that we serve them well brings us more of the same type of customers for this most satisfactory merchandise. We used to call them our candy cus- tomers, because they are mostly those who buy flowers during the year and at Christmas send boxes of candy. Flowers and plants were too high in price and out of their reach — but no more candy for them! These same candy customers used to decorate their tables with holly, greens and artificial decorations, which they saved from year to year until we found out about it. Most of them are now buying their Christmas decorations from us; we taught them how to deco- rate. We sell them a small wreath of How Foliage Plants Can Be Decorated with Greens to Make Attractive Christmas Offerings. 34 The Florists' Review IncCKMHKU :) !.»JII By the Arrangement of the Stock He Has to Sell, the Florist Can Give His Store the Christmas Atmosphere. m:i^ lii'i' in the rt-lilcr nt' tin' -.Inr.' mi hi simir iitlitT conspiciKiiis mjicii ^|i;irc :inil (l»'((ir;itc with florists ' Miiitcrials.

The decorating of a plant of this kiiul where, as in the city of New York, the tiovver buying public is exceedingl.v dis- criminating, can be nothing cheap. I'eojile do not want a i)icce of crepi' ]iaper, which looks mussed ufi within .i day or two. We have to use natural green sheet moss to coxcr the pot, have to decorate the base of th.- jiliuit \sitli asjiaragus, pussy willow, etc., and ha\i' to use good ribbon on the plant. That almost doubles the wholesale |iric-c ol' the plant. So when we get an order tor a .$1! or $1 plant for a customer froni out of town or a customer calls to l)u\' a plant at a lower price, it is hardly possible to give something good. Service Builds Sales. Kvery plant we sell should .add to out prestige. Florists may have prices alike, but do widelv varying business. What gives one florist the larger busi ness and increases his sales is the good ser\ ice wh)( h he gives customers.

In the center of it is a small vessel which they fill with a few branches of holly or red berries or with open red roses, two or three short poin- settias or half a dozen red carnations. If we should make such a decoration it would be unsatisfactory to them, for we should have to charge a higher price than it is actually worth on ac- count of the immense amount of work which we have during the holidays and the shortage of labor at that time, but when they make it themselves they en- joy their own handiwork and it looks much better to them than superior work delivered by us. In this way we decrease our orders for small and in- expensive centerpieces durinj; Christ- mas week and increase our sales on articles which do not cause any extra work. Besides, we are beginning to teach them to use the same kind of decoration for New Year's and we are increasing our New Year's business considerably on cut flowers. The cus- tomer who places an order for a table for Christmas is immediately asked, "The wreath you will be able to keep in a cool place for New Year's. Do you wish to have the same flowers and Rreens sent on New Year's eve?" Most of them place their orders in ad- vance. Get Out Greens in Advance. It is a hardship for any florist when orders for Christmas greens, roping, holly and mistletoe have to be filled December 23 or 24. To the announce- ments we send out to customers for the holidays a card is attached, which has in heavy type, "Christmas green, holly wreaths, etc., will be delivered, well packed, to your residence two daj's in advance. Kindly order early. Try to avoid our rush and we shall be able to give you better service. ' ' Cus- tomers appreciate our difficulty in giv- ing satisfaction to everyone and they try to help us. But we have to help them to think of us. If we don't help ourselves, no one will. It is for us to make sure at the holidays that we re- ceive as few complaints as possible, that we have a profitable business and that we make a healthy increase in our sales and profits. be, we cannot today give the public carnations at 50 cents a dozen, or roses at $1, and make any money either as grower or retailer. Ed. THOSE PBICE LISTS. I certainly do want to commend Win- field S. Kircher for his stand, in his let- ter in The Review December 2, on the prices asked by some of the F. T. D. florists from whom we have been receiv- ing price lists. Some of the prices quoted are ridiculously high in com- parison with the present market or the probable market at Christmas time. It seems a peculiar coincidence that this letter should have been published in the same issue as the article, ' ' Check Complaints on High Prices." How can we check complaints when they are in part justified? We shall have to give patrons their money's worth. S. A. Bouslog. The complaints of florists' high prices in the public press are directed against all florists and all sorts of flowers. No discrimination is made. To aid such florists as Mr. Kircher and Mr. Bouslog, the article referred to was written — -to point out the means of combating this adverse influence in one's own locality. The florists who send out the price lists mentioned would seem to need no such assistance, for they get the prices they ask from their own clientele. All flo- rists do not enjoy that class of trade, however, which will pay whatever is asked, and they must educate their patrons to a better understandin}; of why flowers are not so cheap as thoy once were, nor will they ever be again. No matter how reasonable we wish to ARTIFICIAL CHEAPER AlTSrWAY, Failure on the part of the government to appeal from a recent decision by General Appraiser McClelland fixing as correct for appraisement purposes the German home rather than the export prices of artificial flowers imported here from Germany entitles the importers in the case to considerable duty refunds. The findings of the general appraiser are now final and will serve to guide customs officers in assessing duty on future importations of artificial flowers to this country. The importers convinced Judge Mc- Clelland that the prices exacted from American purchasers were fifty per cent in excess of the prices charged to Ger- man buyers. Consequently, the general appraiser ordered the collector to re- liquidate the entries on the basis of one-third off the invoiced prices. In reaching this conclusion the general ap- praiser held to the method outlined in the tariff law wherein it is provided that ad valorem duties shall be based on the home values in the country from which the goods are exported. In the case of German importations this method is operating in favor of the importers, who are paying duty on the lower Ger- man prices rather than on the prices charged for export. BUSINESS EMBARRASSMENTS. Tacoma, Wash. — E. K. Murray, re- ceiver in the bankruptcy case of the Acme Floral Co. vs. Hayden Watson Floral Co., will present to the court December 10 the final report on the matter, asking the final distribution of $377.28, the balance in his hands.

We are again approaching the holiday when pot plants are sold in great num- bers and in wide variety. The selec- tion may not be so large as at Easter, but will closely approach it. Since this holiday cornea, however, when the days are short and the cold likely to be more or less severe, much greater care is needed in the handling of stock, particu- larly in regard to watering, packing and keeping the plants free from chills and drafts while in the store. It is unfortunate that so few store men know anything about practical flori- culture. The writer has often thought, when listening to inquiries from cus- tomers regarding the care of various plants and hearing the replies from men who know practicaly nothing but how to handle cut flowers or make up designs, that it would pay reputable stores to have at least one man who could furnish reliable information. When this idea was suggested to one prominent retailer, he answered that it would hurt his business to do this, be- cause people would then care for their plants better, retain them longer and buy fewer. This reasoning is not con- vincing. On the contrary, the misinfor- mation too often given, with the speedy demise of so many plants, acts as a deterrent rather than a stimulus for future purchases. Beware of Frost. In 1919 we had fairly open weather for Christmas. This is a wonderful ad- vantage, because the plants are far less liable to suffer chills while being deliv- ered. Where deliveries can be made promptly in automobile trucks, many of which are heated, there is not so much danger of loss, but the results are quite .different when packages, no matter how warmly wrapped, are turned over to ex- press companies, which, tto doubt, do their best, but are overwhelmed with business for Christmas. It is always safe to wrap the plants heavily, no matter what the weather is, as climatic changes often come without warning. Be sure that the pots or pans are cov- ered just as warmly as the plants them- selves, for a chilling of the soil, with some varieties, will do almost as much harm .as the actual freezing of the plants. Paper is expensive-^tJiese days, but it is best to stock up ofl"^ heavily. It will not take many frozen plants to equal the cost of a ton of old news- papers. (', Few Novelties. There will not be much in the way of novelties for the coming holiday season among foliage and flowering plants. Perhaps a year hence, with a probable modification of Quarantine 37, Europe may be able to send us some fine new azaleas for Christmas, hydran- geas for Easter, and other desirable novelties, but meantime we must worry along with what we have and it is really surprising what a lot of fine ma- terial we can produce at home. We shall miss the azaleas, skimmias, aucubas, hollies and other imported stock, but cyclamens, begonias, poin- settias and other plants grown at home are abundant, of sterling quality and likely to give every satisfaction. Last year Christmas trade broke all records; business then was booming, few were unemployed and wages were high. Present industrial conditions are less bright, securities of all kinds are low and a semi-pessimistic feeling is met far too frequently. Can we, under such conditions, surpass or even equal last year's business for the holidays? At this writing, this scarcely seems possible, and the fancy prices obtained for some plants and flowers a year ago will hardly be equaled now. Still, overhead charges have not yet been reduced in a noticeable degree and florists are justified in asking as much as they did a year ago, although some, no doubt, who do not consider all the circumstances, will tell you that there is no reason why flowers do not drop in the same ratio as wheat, flour, oats, sugar, potatoes and onions. They ig- nore the fact that florists still pay at least as much for labor, fuel, twine, glass and other such items as a year ago. Cyclamen Leads Plants. Among flowering plants, cyclamens .jvill once more be the leaders. These are to be found this season in greater numbers and of finer quality than ever before. When the yard-across speci- mens in 10-inch pots or small tubs are compared with such plants as we had at Christmas a decade ago, the advance in their culture and popularity is evi- dent and the prices paid today at wholesale would have made growers ten years ago gasp. The big specimens offered are usually 15 to 16 months old, while not a few good plants are no more than 8 or 9 months old. Entirely apart from their flowers, cyclamens are exceptionally attractive. The varie- gated foliage suggests peperomia leaves facing upward and there is great variety in their marbling. Cyclamens make splendid house plants and can be depended upon to give satisfaction for several weeks in even a warm room if carefully tended. In the store they are less harmed by sharp drops in tempera- ture and drafts than other plants.

Begonias. Begonias come next to cyclamens in favor. More of them may be sold tlian of cyclamens, but, while they may carry .a greater profusion of flowers, they have less variety of colorings and art- poorer keepers in the store or home than cyclamens. Of the several kinds in commerce, Melior now seems to be in the lead, with Cincinnati next and Mrs. Peterson and Lorraine in smaller numbers, and with a fair quantity of Chatelaine, Mrs. Patten and others of the fibrous-rooted, ever-blooming sec tion. A more limited number of the magnificent English winter-blooming section are offered. These need more heat than our American varieties. Their flowers are as large as those of the summer-blooming tuberous bego- nias and have a fine range of colors. They are propagated readily from leaves and have better keeping quali lies than Cincinnati or Melior. Once their culture is better understood and they become more abundant, they will outclass even cyclamens as Christmil^ plants. Tlie Yuletide Flower. Poiuscttias cannot well be dispenseil with at Christmas. Their brilliant scarlet bracts are alwaj-s associated with the yuletide. Their culture, while not especially difficult, is more so than that of many other plants. Vagaries of temperature, careless watering and injudicious feeding will ruin a fine batch in short order. There is no beauty in poinsettias minus most nt' their foliage, and bungling attempts tu hide naked stems with various green j)lants mend matters but little. Careful watering is especially needed for :\ few weeks before Christmas. Avoid cold flrafts, but gradually lower the teniiK'rnture for plants with well devel- u|ic(l br.iil>. Sometimes, when plants have been chilled somewhat, a soaking of warm water will help to revive them. While the plants are in the store, never allow water to stand in the saucers, or the foliage will speedily turn golden. When there is a cold wave around the holidays, poinsettias are among the most difficult plants, not only to sell, but to deliver in presentable condition. Retailers, under such conditions, often lose heavily on them. Be sure to wrap them warmly when the weather is cold. Branched specimens are now po|)ular with the critical buyers. Old stock plants are the best for this purpose. There is only a limited call for the white variety. The rose-colored form sells a little as a novelty, and plenis- sima, the double scarlet form of pul- cherrima, is pleasing, but the over- whelming majority are of the single scarlet variety. When cutting poin- settias, be sure to sear the ends of the stems, either by dipping the ends in boiling water or applying them to hot coals. Then wrap the foliage of each in soft paper and plunge in deep vases of water. Heliotropes, allamandas and euphorbias all keep much better if the bottoms of their stems are seared as soon as cut. Primulas. The primrose family is really useful at Christmas, as it can be rather cheaply produced and profitably sold at prices suitable for buyers of moder- ate means. P. obconica, especially in the red and deep pink shades, is use- ful and makes a first-rate house plant. Some retailers taboo it on account of the poisoning caused by handling the foliage. P. malacoides also is poison- ous, but in a less degree. It is graceful and, while not at its best so early as Christmas, sells well at that time. The pink Townsendii is particularly good. At one time the baby primrose, P. For- besii, was popular. Now it is seldom seen, as malacoides has outclassed it. Neither are many of the sweet and pretty P. kewensis seen, but P. chinen- sis and the taller-growing and smaller- flowered form, stellata, are still in favor. It is to be regretted, however, that their foliage is so brittle. All the primulas succeed under cool culture in the greenhouse, store or home and all are ideal for window boxes. Hard-Wooded Plants.

Erica melanthera is a welcome plant and a good stock of it is offered. This is the heath par excellence for com- mercial use. Its propagation and cul- ture are simple. It flowers over a period of several months and there are few flowering plants that last so long, always provided it is not allowed to become dry at the root. Some of the long-tubed ericas also are offered, as well as a few bougainvilleas. Camel lias drop their flowers rather easily and are bruised unless carefully packed. There is always a call for them, how- ever, at this season and their popularity is once more on the ascendant. I liave noticed one or two plants of Acacia Baileyana in flower. This variety, how- ever, grows too tall for commercial purposes, although the cut sprays are acceptable before the graceful A. pu bcscens comes in. Berried Plants. There seems to be a shortage of Ota- heite oranges this sc;ison ami their prices rule high. These plants can bo depended upon to hold their fruit for a long time. Another beautiful berried subject for Christmas, which also ap- pears to be in short supply, is Ardisia crenulata. This plant cannot be pro duced cheaply, because several years are needed to get fair-sized, salable plants. On the other hand, tlie quan- tity of solanums is greater than ever before and they are wonderfully well berried. Cleveland holds first place and there are improvements on this fine sort. The orange-yellow variety also meets with a good sale. These at- tractive plants will not hold their fruit and foliage as well as ardisias, but are of easy culture. Christmas peppers are also in the list of berried plants, but in the east the finely berried hollies and aiicuhas, now debarred, will be missed. Want New Varieties. Miscellaneous flowering plants seem more numerous than in former years. The continual demand for something new induces growers to try out plants, occasionally new but mostly old, that are not ordinarily considered for lioli day use. Some of these are worthy of the attention of commercial growers, who may not have handled them before. Cinerarias from seed sown late in June are now nicely in bloom and should sell well. Standard heliotropes are by no means new. They are not, perhaps, of a real Christmas color, but their de- licious odor always makes them sell. The inauve-flowered Erlangea tomen- tosa, coining into flower immediately aftt'i' clirysanthemuins, has been men- tioned before in The Review; the flower heads resemble eupatoriums and the foliage is pleasingly scented. Nicely flowered scarlet geraniums are acceptable at this season. The double varieties stand packing and shipping the best. In the way of bulbous plants, Paper White narcissi are abundant in pans and bowls. Last fall was so warm that early-planted bulbs bloomed far ahead of their usual season. Pots and pans of Roman hyacinths are available. So are a good number of Purity freesias, which have needed a night temperature of 52 to 54 degrees for some time. Many Possibilities. Linum trigynum, with golden yellow flowers like allamandas, is worthy of more notice. It is an old plant, charm- ing in pots. Gardenias in 5, 6 and 7-inch pots, carrying open flowers and a good number of buds, are excellent for warm rooms, where they will open well, and their perfume is always ap- ]>reciated. Browallia speciosa major, dcej) blue, in 4, 5 and 6-inch pots is a lovely ]ilant, of a color always popular among ladies. The dwarf form of Stevia serrata makes a lovely pot jilant. Its culture is simple and, if grown cool, it never needs any staking. Single white marguerites, if propa- gated early and if pinching was dis- 38 The Florists* Review Dbcembeu 9.

They are some- thing of a novelty at Christinas; yet why not grow more of them in pots? Some nicely flowered Swainsona galegi- folia alba would also add to the list of holiday jilants. Orchids, except cypri- padiums, are not numerous at Clirist- mas, but C. insigne, including both the ordinary and yellow forms, makes one of the finest of the flowering plants for the home and no other plants will hold their flowers fresh for so long a period. Grow More Varieties. This is not a complete list of Clirist- nias plants, but it goes to show that, aside from the few largely cultivated sorts, a wide assortment is available. It is to be hoped that some growers, at least, may take courage and try one or more of the aforementioned rarer sorts for another year. Plenty of beautiful crotons, drneir- nas, fieus, palirus, ferns, selagincUas, etc., are available and they always are in large demand. It would need a spe- at Mount Sterling, Ky., in the winter of 1918 failed to get his supply of gas, upon which he depended for heating his house. As a result, practically all of his fine stock was frozen, the loss amounting to, as he estimated, $710. He brought suit against the gas com- pany, claiming damages for this amount, but the lower court threw out the case. Last week, however, the Appellate court reversed this decision and award- ed Mr. Humphreys damages to the amount of $710. "In the absence of an express con- tract of this character," stated the court in handing down this decision, "we think the company may be made liable in an action for damages at the instance of any customer who has suf- fered loss through its negligence or 'failure to fulfill the obligations im- ])liedly assumed by its solicitation and acceptance of the franchise contract with the city under which it acquired the right to and did use the streets for the purpose of supplying the city and its people with gas for heating pur- poses." Court Implies Contract. The court held that if the terms of the contract were expressed in the franchise, then the case would be gov- erned by the terms of the contract, but where there is an absence of an express contract "the law will raise an implied and enforceable contract to take the place of the omitted express contract and impose on the company the obliga- tions to render the service that was reasonably within the contemplation of the parties when the contract was made." The defendant company claimed in this case that the failure to supply the florist was because the gas was sup- plied to the citizens. In this regard, the court states that when the company secured a franchise it was contemplated it would take reasonable and practica- ble care and diligence, considering all of the existing circumstances, without discrimination and favor, to render the service required. CINCINNATI, O. The Market. With the passing of Thanksgiving, business is not so brisk as before the holiday. Reaction comes after every holiday. Mums are now past their zenith and on their downward grade, and only a few of the select and late kinds are to be had. Pompons of the Wilcox variety are still arriving in good numbers, but other varieties suffer the same fate as the larger mums. Carnations are holding their own in price, now bringing $6 per hundred and going well. Eoses are arriving in just enough numbers to take care of the demand nicely. Sweet peas look more promising, which is a welcome develop- ment for the retailer. Snapdragons are arriving in more abundance and always go well. The best bring $12.50 per liundred. Narcissi, both yellow and white, find only a fair market, the white bringing $t5 per hun- dred and the yellow only $8 per hundred. The latter is not a good seller on this market. Violets, baby primroses, Cecile Brunner roses and other miscellaneous stock are selling only fairly well. Various Notes.

Ex- (TvJ't^ plaining that his particu- — 1 1 far business had made him observant of all kinds of retail establishments for many years, he added, "It's not the publicity they've had from their slogan that I mean. That is altogether recent. Tliere has been in the last decade, however, a conspicuous improvement in florists ' stores and in their methods of business. Today, I should say, no retail shops are finer than some flower shops I've been in. Not all of them, of course; there are leaders and laggards in every pro- fession as in every procession. The leaders among florists' stores, liowever, surpass the leaders in other retail establish- ments. Some of your fashionable flower shops are the last word in store archi- tecture." Leaders. Have florists noted it? Or does the fact only come to our minds when an outsider calls our attention to it 7 When he has done so, a little reflection con- vinces us that he is right. One would not here name those retail flower stores which stand out conspicuous- ly in the various cities of the country; such a list would be invidious. Florists who travel to conventions, if not elsewhere, however, re- call those stores whose appearance has given them cause for ad- miration. The number is becoming larger, for others of the trade are seeing and pondering the success of those shops, and quite fre- quently a trade visitor goes home afterwards to spruce up his place a bit, even though his town is not large enough to warrant the outlay for such a store as he has seen in the city. Progress. The result has been, as the florist's patron remarked, a notable advance in the trade. This, one believes, is only one phase of our progress. It is one, however, that carries much in the way of prestige to the public, which is not generally able to note other lines of the trade's advance. There is in reality a decided benefit to be obtained by a store that stands out as the home of a business and is not merely the room in which the pro- prietor displays his stock for sale. If it does nothing more, it adds to the respect of the patron for the wares he buys in such an establishment, and in these days, when prices of flowers are Distinctiveness of Exterior Is Recognized as an Asset Today. high and must continue high, all of us, will agree that this is something well worth while. But it does do more. It is, for another thing, a highly valuable species of advertising. Many of the trade may recall, in this connection, the doughboy who was asked in Paris what he thought of most often in connection with his home city, New York, in his reminiscences of home. Was it the Woolworth tower, perhaps, or the Statue of Liberty, the Hudson river or Brook- lyn bridge? No, it was a green spot on a Fifth avenue corner that had im- pressed itself on his mind, and when he returned he was going to take the bus straight to that famous florist's store. When a shop becomes a land- mark, it has, indeed, tremendous pub- licity value, and in many cities and towns are florists' places which have reached this class. Their appearance, either because of their architecture or exterior ornament or decoration of some sort, has impressed it- self indelibly upon the eyes of passers. Pashionable. When a flower store has the air of up-to- dateness it derives pat- ronage also because it comes into that cate- gory of shops termed by that word so inde- finable yet meaningful, "fashionable." Flo- rists of wide experi- ence are respectful of that word and what it denotes. They have seen a difference of a few blocks in location work a marked effect upon clientele. They have seen change in appearance — the alter- ation of a store front, jnore pretentious ex- terior decorations, or rearrangement of in- terior, not to speak of remodeling or the building of a new store — make notable changes in a shop's trade.

That is what is known as a "name" making sales. The quality of stock at a store may be no better than that at the one two blocks down the street, the work may be no better per- formed, yet the "name" of one draws customers the other cannot get. One of the most potent factors in making a "name" is a flower shop's appearance. Certainly no shop that is not of excel- lent appearance can be considered in the fashionable class. How powerful is this motive of fash- ionablcness in winning business is not always appreciated.

At the reorganization of the Retail Florists' Association of Pittsburgh the following ofiicers were elected: I'residcnt, Ira -C. Harper, of A. W. Smith Co. Vice-president, Harvey C. Shcaflf, of Mrs. E. A. Williams, Inc. Secretary, Edward E. Ludwig, of E. C. Ludwig Floral Co. Treasurer, Gilbert P. Weaklen, of G. P. Weaklen Co. The president appointed for the ad- vertising committee, Edward McGratli, John McClements, E. L. Weaver; for the entertainment committee, De Forrest W. Ludwig, Miss E. B. Maxwell, Albert Briggs, W. M. Turner, E. H. Carey; for the membership committee, Fred Kiegel- mcier, William T. Butz, William J. War- rick, Charles E. Nelson, C. G. Ulmer; on Sunday closing, G. P. Weaklen, H. C. Sheaff, E. J. Malone, H. C. Buechler, E. C. Ludwig. A second meeting, to which the ladies were invited, was a huge success, over forty members of the profession being present. Perhaps it was because of the wives that it was more than an ordinary meeting, or it may have been the dinner arranged by the entertaining committee, but it was an enthusiastic crowd and the future points to a fnr greater and better organization than has been dreamed of by its reorganizers. Tlie Sunday closing campaign was probably tlic liottest item on the pro- gram. Everyone seemed to believe in it, but some were reluctant to start it. A motion was made to drop the Sunday closing item from the campaign, but this was not favored, so the committee will continue with its work. Chas. Nelson, of Wellsville, 0., made a motion that the motto, "It can be done," be made the cornerstone of the society's platform. This was seconded with general approval, so hereafter this motto will be connected with ' ' Say It with Flowers ' ' and hung at every meet- ing. George Wessenauer, of Sewickley, Pa., had more to say for the benefit of the organization and itk members than any other florist present. His illustration of the society being a "grindstone," where the florist can bring his axe for grinding and get it sharpened for the benefit of all, was much applauded. The advertising committee has oflfored a plan to the members which puts the local advertising cost on a class basis, divided as follows: Class A florists pay EMPLOYMENT CONTRACT. Acyjording to the decision of the Penn- sylvania Supreme court in the case of Stolowitz vs. Roseman, 107 Atlantic Re- porter, 322, a written contract of em- ployment may validly provide that the employee will not for a period of one year after the termination of his em- ployment, either directly or indirectly, enter into business in competition with the employer in the same city, nor with- in such time or within such city enter the employment of anyone engaged in a similar business. The court says that the agreement "is such a partial re- straint of trade, being limited both as to time and territory, as will te en- forced in a court of equity." S. OTHERS' AMBITIONS. Everyone has his own ambitions, his own objects, that he hopes to achieve in the future, but they are not always based upon present performances. They may be dreams, built of air, without foundation. Others' ambitions for us are apt, on the other hand, to be based on the things of which we have already shown ourselves capable. For that reason we often find others' hopes for us come to pass, while not so often those which we hold alone are fulfilled. Others' ambitions for us, in short, are based on past performance, on what has been achieved, on demonstrated ability. So it is with a publication, and on that account there is something real for others to read besides the hope ex- pressed in the following: Do the adTertisements in the Telegraph De- livery Department of the Review pay and nro tliey read? We say they do and they are! And we hope to see the time when that department wiU bo a complete directory of retail florists. — Reliance Seed Co., Ironton, 0., December 4, 1920.

In most establishments roses are propagated for greenhouse forcing be- tween the months of November and March. A florist inquiring as to the best methods of propagation remarks that in his estimation it seems to be cheaper to buy all rose stock than to propagate it. "The only advantage in doing one's own propagating," he says, "is that the plants are on the place when they are needed and de- structive rose pests are kept away from the establishment." It must be admit- ted that the latter part of this state- ment is important, since in some sec- tions of this country today the plants of some growers are badly infested with midge and another still worse insect which must be kept within bounds. Whether it is cheaper to buy rose stock or do one's own prppagation is something of a question, but many of the largest rose growers today make contracts with reputable propagators to do their grafting or propagating for them instead of doing it themselves, and concentrate entirely on the cut flower end of the business, so as to keep their benches working 100 per cent every day of the year. The stock of every reliable propagator, if grown for sale, is examined once or twice a year by the department of agriculture in his state, and if the stock is clean he gets a certificate from the state to that effect. In buying rose plants, as in buying anything else, one must con- sider the quality and cleanliness of the stock in considering the cost. Of course it would be better to do one's own propagating than to buy inferior or diseased stock. Choosing Clean Cuttings. In propagating roses from cuttings, it is first of all important that the foliage be absolutely free from mildew, black spot or insects. Many growers fail through lack of care in this respect. They do not worry about mildew on their stock because they feel sure they can get rid of it as soon as the plants get rooted. Any grower who benches cuttings infected with black spot, even to a small degree, should know that the black spot will be greatly aggravated and in most cases the foliage will fall off entirely before the plants are rooted. Granted, then, that one has clean, healthy stock to work on, the cuttings should be made of half-ripened wood. By half-ripened wood is meant wood that is in the stage when the flower bud is ready to cut. This is the simplest description of wood that is ready to be put in the sand. The rose will make roots whether cut above or below a joint. The ideal cut has three eyes, one immediately beneath where the cut has been made, and one or two above the soil. Three-eye cuttings make plants much more quickly than smaller cut- tings without the eye below the ground when benched. When a three-eye cut- ting is used, the plants begin almost at once to produce growth shoots. A plant that does not have a base eye when the cutting is made will not produce ground shoots nearly so quickly or in such quantity as when the cutting is prop- erly made. Temperature of House and Sand. The proper temperature at which to keep the house is also important. Many growers blot out the north bench with plant cloth and use this for propagation and it does fairly well. The ideal con- ditions, however, are in a north house where the winter sun will not affect the temperature, and where the temperature can be kept at 70 degrees in the sand and 65 degrees in the house itself. Eoses can be grown in many ways, but I am speaking now of the ideal way and of the conditions under which own- root roses are propagated most success- fully. I may mention in passing that wood from plants that have been ex- cessively fed with nitrogenous fertilizer will give a high percentage of loss in the cutting bench. This is another reason why it sometimes pays to buy from a dealer who makes a specialty of growing young plants, as he would naturally pay more attention to the condition of his wood than to the condi- Rooting Rose Cuttings on a Large Scale in a Big Middle Western Establishment. 44 The Florists' Review Dkikmukk tt. 1920 fll'tv piM- (M'lit; Clnss B florists pay thirty ]i('r cent: Class C florists pay twenty per (•out .

Aoeording to the decision of the Penn- sylvania Supreme court in the case of Stolowitz vs. Roseman, 107 Atlantic Re jjorter, 322, a written contract of em- ployjncnt may validly provide that the om{)loyeo will not for a period of one year after the termination of his em- ployment, cither directly or indirectly, enter into business in competition with the employer in the same city, nor with- in such time or within such city enter the employment of anyone engaged in a similar business. The court says that the agreement "is such a partial re- straint of trade, being limited both as to time and territory, as will -be en- forced in a court of equity." S.

Kveryone has his own ambitions, his own otijects, that he hopes to achieve in the future, but they are not always based upon jiresent performances. They may be dreams, built of air, without foundation. Others' ambitions for us are apt, on the other hand, to be based on the things of which we have already shown ourselves capable. For that reason we often find others' hopes for us come to pass, while not so often those which we hold alone are fulfilled. Others' ambitions for us, in short, are based on jiast performance, on what has been achieved, on demonstrated ability. 8o it is with a publication, and on that account there is something real for others to read besides the hope ex pressed in the following: Do tlio lulvortisemi'nt.s in tlip Tclotfrapli He livcr.v I)c|):irtiiniit of tlie Itcvicw pay iind are lliey reail'.'

A llorist incjuiriii;^ as to tlie best metliods of projiatjatioii remarks tliat in his estimation it seems to be flieaper to buy all rose stock than to l^rofjagato it. "The only advantage in doing one's own propagating," he says, "is that the phuits are on the place when they are needed and de- structive rose pests are kept away from the establishment." It must be admit- ted that the latter part of this state- ment is important, since in some sec- tions of this country today the ]dau1s of some growers are badly infested with midge and another still worse insect which must be kept within bounds. Whether it is cheaper to buy rose stock or do one's own propagation is something of a question, but many of the largest rose growers today make contracts with reputable propagators to do their grafting or j)roj)agating for them instead of doing it themselves, and concentrate entirely on the cut flower end of the business, so as to keep their benches working 100 per cent every day of the year. The stock of every reliable propagator, if grown for sale, is examined once or twice a year by the department of agriculture in liis state, and if the stock is cli'ati lie gets a certificati' from the state In that efl'ert. In buying rose ]'laiits, a^ in buying auythiiig else, one must con- sider the (|uality and I'leaulincss of lin- stock in considering the cost. Of course it would be bettiT to do one's own jiropagatia;; than to buy inferior or tliseased stock. Choosing Clean Cuttings.

They do not worry aljout mildew on their stock because they feel sure they can get rid of it as soon as the plants get rooted.

His percentage of strikes in cuttings will be jjiuch higher and the resulting plants, even though small, will come along much more sat- isfactorily than plants grown from overfed atock. Anchoring the Cuttings. As to what kind of sand to use, any sand that contains a fair proportion of grit is satisfactory. Some workmen, in putting their cuttings in the sand, are not sufficiently careful to get them properly anchored. It not infrequently happens that where the sand is coarse the operator makes a mark with his knife, puts the cuttings in, presses around the top of the sand and leaves the cuttings suspended at the base. Though a heavy watering may some- times settle the sand around the base, a little care in putting the cuttings in will be found well worth while. An inquirer mentions the failure to preserve the foliage on Russell before it makes roots. Eussell is one of the most diflScult varieties to root and the wood for this particular rose should be much softer than the wood usually recommended for other varieties. If Russell is infected with black spot, one will be only wasting his time in propa- gating from it, because this disease will take every leaf off the cuttings before they are rooted. As a consequence, not weeks, but months, will be required to get the plants in any sort of condition. Large Callus, but No Boots. On some varieties, though they aiijjar- cntly form a callus satisfactorily, the callus gets larger and larger without emitting roots. I have never been able to figure out why this condition appears mostly on varieties like Mrs. Ward and My Maryland. Not infrequently state experiment stations have been deceived and have referred to this callus as crown gall. On one or two occasions, when the foliage kept healthy on varieties like Maryland, I have potted up a plant with a large callus, put it in the grafting case, induced it to produce roots, and eventually have succeeded in restoring the proper balance between the roots and the top. To sum up the situation, I would suggest to one doubtful about propa- gating that if his rose plants are in good condition, producing nice crops, it might be better to send his order for stock to a good plant grower and con- tinue with his flowers. If he is in a position where he has to do his own propagating, it might be better to look into the grafting proposition, rather than propagate from own-root plants, particularly in the case of Russell and plants of that character, which are diffi- cult to handle from the own-root stand- point. Charles H. Totty. MILDEW ON BOSES. Would you kindly suggest the best and most effective remedy for mildew on roses for forcing? W. S. C. — 111. It is not possible to state in a few words the remedy for mildew. The first step is to remove the cause, which is the condensation of moisture on the plants. Mildew usually follows a fall in outside temperature when the rose house atmosphere is damp and there is no heat on. The leading rose growers keep up steam practically all summer, to main- tain constant guard against such a con- dition. With the house in the right condition, the spores of mildew are best killed by the use of sulphur. The usual way is to paint the steam pij)es with it. If the sulphur burns, the fumes will defoliate the roses. H. 0. A DUTY FOB ALL. The florists' trade will have to take on new life. If it does not, artificial flowers will take away its best days. Already Memorial day is nearly fifty- fifty, and more days are drifting that way through the indifference of the flo- rists everywhere. I find in traveling around New Eng- land that a lot of blame is with the flo- rist— grower, wholesaler and retailer alike. You can't imagine anybody's buying artificial flowers made of paper in a factory if they could buy one of nature's most wonderful gifts, real live flowers with their beautiful color and odor, which make the rich buy them and the poor to wish for them. The way to sell an article or service is to create a demand for it, and the demand can only be made through pub- licity, advertising not as individuals but as organized bodies. Now, the cost of this publicity should .not be borne by a few men in the business. Everybody benefits, everybody should pay part of the cost of publicity. We read about the florists in one city raising $35,000 to advertise flowers. Awful, is it not? But when you stop and consider that they will make sev- eral times that amount in increased de- mand for flowers it looks quite dif- ferent. Everybody has heard about the orange growers and raisin growers, and now the lemon growers are going to spend $1,000,000 for advertising, and everybody will eat more lemons because their advertisements will create the de- mand. Before the eighteenth amend- ment went into effect we could say lots of nice things about lemons, but they will through publicity make a better market and get more for their labor. In a business deal where wit meets wit and sharp dealings are carried on by competition for the other man's trade, we judge it good business, but when a man or combination of men benefit by money spent for advertising and they do not bear their proportional part they are taking something that does not belong to them. A great number of men are satisfied with a small business. All right, but you must improve that business. You can't stand still as individuals or in a business. You either go ahead or back. You cannot afford to go back, so let's go ahead — grow more, buy more, sell more and make more, make flowers wanted everywhere at all times, bring it before everybody through advertis- ing that they can be had. This is what one branch of the flower business is going to do. Let all other branches follow suit. George G.

Before planting we wish to know the best varieties of pompons, single spray mums and large mums in white, pink and yellow of early midscason and late varieties for a greenliouse growing for retail business. M. F. C. — X. Y. It is a difficult task to give a com- plete list of the best varieties, because varieties vary in different localities and tastes differ markedly, and so va- rieties that would do well in one market may not do so well in another. The following list is composed of good kinds that seem to give fairly general satis- faction. M. F. C. asks only for the best white, jiink and yellow, but I have included bronze, because the last few years have proved beyond a doubt that bronze is more popular than any other color in chrysanthemums. This is ac- counted for by the fact that this color blends perfectly with autumn foliage. The last two j'cnrs we have found that the smaller types produce more money per square foot than the large- flowering kinds, although one must have a proportion of large flowers to make the fall shows and to take care of the l>enple who demand large flowers. Varieties are suggested in the order of their blooming. The pompons are as follows: White — Mariana, White Doty and Baby Margaret; tliere are, of course, many other whites in this type, but these are universally ])opulnr and one might better grow three good kinds than a dozen of the poorer varieties. Pink — Lillian Doty, Captain Cook and Western Beauty; in this collection Western Beauty will prove particularly valuable for Thanksgiving, as it comes in well for tliat date. Yellow — Zenobia, Golden Climax and Baby; Baby is the smallest pomjjon grown, but is wonder- fully popular in all sections. If Baby is not large enough, we can suggest in its ]ilace, (rolden Lida Thomas. Bronze — A. L. Moran, Mrs. Henry Vincent and Mrs. Frank Wilcox; the first two named are comparatively new varieties, but Mrs. Wilcox, or Mrs. Frank Beu, as it is often called, is more largely grown than any other bronze for Thanksgiving. Singles are particularly valuable when the grower does his own retail 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.

These, also, are given in the order of their flowering season: White — Mrs. W. H. Waite, Millicent Pijier and Mensa. Pink — Mrs. BuckiiicrhaiJi, Mildred Presby .nnd Mrs. E. D. Godfrey. Mrs. P.uckin^' ham is a dwarf, a handsome grower, jiarticularly ^•alual)le for use in a place where head room is limited. Mrs. E. I). Godfrey is the pink grown jirac- tically to the exclusion of every other jiink single chrysiinthemum for Thanks- giving. Yellow — Vivian Cook, Golden Mensa and Rose ]M. Daly. Bronze — Ida Katherinc Skiff, Richard Delafield and Gloriana; these three varieties will bring in more money than any other color on the entire list. In the large-flowering varieties the list would be: White — Early Frost, Alice Daj', Oconto and William Turner. Pink — Unaka, Chieftain, Nerissa and E. Seidewitz. Yellow — Golden Glow, Chrysolora, Richmond and Yellow Turner. Bronze — Bronzo Unaka, Octo- ber Herald and William H. Waite. This list, of course, can be' materially increased, but for the average man starting in business it will be found satisfactory and ample. C. H. T. HOPPERS DAMAGE MUMS. I have sent you an animal which oats hundreds of our mums at night. What is it, and how can I get rid of this pest? F. & F.— Wis. The animal is what we call a hop- jter. While we have seen ^a great num- l)er of them, we have never found that they eat any flowers. They have done us most damage by skipping over the flowers and bruising the petals. Our greatest trouble from them is after the blooms are cut and standing in water in the cellar. Dampness seems to draw them and they hop about on the flowers, causing the petals to damp. Fumig;iting with nicotine extract we have found to be the best remedy. OUTDOOR CHRYSANTHEMUMS.

Boston, Mass. — The Medfield Farms & Greenhouse Co. has obtained a charter of incorporation. It is capitalized at $150,000 and is licensed to sell farm, forest and garden products. Manistee, Mich. — Wilbur Erickson, who has been employed by Jacob Schneider and Joseph Clarkson here for the last ten years, is opening an up-to- date store at 422 River street. Nevada, Mo. — G. P. Kaupp & Son have completely rebuilt their green- houses, which were destroyed by fire last February. The new houses are more spacious and are on a more modern plan than the old. This firm is cutting good crops of seasonable blooms, with roses coming along a little later. Ashevllle, N. C. — The Middlemount Nurseries opened a booth in the Ruten- berg-Lowenbeing store December 3. The booth was made up to represent an Italian garden. Greenhouses and nurs- eries of the firm are located at Sulphur Springs, N. C. Otto Buseck, manager, came recently from New York. Mobile, Ala. — C. Ravier & Sons report last month's business as greater than that of any previous November. There was a large general demand, but espe- cially heavy call for funeral work and wedding flowers. They say their tele- graph delivery orders, both in and out, increase steadily and have become an important part of the business. diaries City, la. — Ray W. Ferris, of Hampton, la., has purchased the green- houses recently owned by W. H. Weth- erbee, and took control December 1. The property was recently sold to San- ders Bros., of Rudd, la., in exchange for a farm. They, in turn, disposed of it to the present owner, who conducts a nursery at Hampton. It is probable that for this winter, at least, Mr. Weth- erbee will have charge of the growing. Lansing, Mich. — Earl Edgerton, gla- diolus specialist here for the last five years, is closing out his business and will go to the Hawaiian islands. Mr. Edgerton has been a wholesale grower of bulbs and has also raised some yellow, white and light lavender seedling gla- dioli. These he will leave with other Lansing gladiolus growers, including Fred Baumgras, Floralcroft Gladiolus Gardens and Walter Wliitelcv. Petoskey, Mich. — Frank Winans has discontinued the retail branch of his business. His entire attention will be devoted to growing bulbs and plants for the trade. St. Paul, Minn. — A. W. Lemke has moved from his old location, at 160 West Sixth street, to the new Hamm building, in this city, and is now doing business at the new store. Enid, Okla. — A. H. Freeborough, for- merly a grower for the Albuquerque Greenhouses, Albuquerque, N. Max., is now employed Vith the Enid Floral Co., of this place, being a grower in the car- nation range. Milwaukee, Wis. — The Milwaukee Florists' Publicity Association is the new name given to the organization which was formerly known as the Flo- rists' Advertising Clubr The former name resulted in occasional confusion locally. Moorhead, Minn. — The Briggs Floral Co. is using the local newspapers and is profiting by the advertising. J. W. Briggs reports that business has been good and the winter season promises to be a busy one. All available glass is being used, regardless of the high price of coal, and a large stock is expected for Christmas. Spartanburg, S. C— Fred Gentry, a wholesale tobacco merchant of this city, recently constructed several green- houses on Spring street, secured the services of an experienced florist and will conduct a florists' business here. Just now his specialty is cut flowers, though he will later expand his busi- ness to all lines. "Fred's Flowers" are already popular here and in neigh- boring towns. Springfield, Mo.— Charles H. Gelven, formerly of Cape Girardeau, Mo., who has built and operated greenhouses in a number of Missouri cities, has pur- chased property at 522 Cherry street, where he will begin the erection of greenhouses in the spring. He also plans to establish a flower store on the public square. Mr. Gelven was super- intendent of the floricultural depart- ment of the Missouri state fair for twelve years. Norton, Kan.— This is the largest town in northwestern Kansas, but it has no greenhouse. The population is 2,500; the county has 12,000. There are sixty blocks of paved streets and a variety of prosperous industries, includ- ing three banks with combined deposits of nearly $4,000,000. Three drug stores handle flowers, obtained from Topcka, Kansas City and other points, but it often happens that, when flowers are wanted, all three druggists are out or shipments fail to arrive as expected. 50 The Florists' Review Obcbmbbb 9, 1920 sa^ffl^ KstabllHliod 18!)7, by Ci.

Prep.\r.\tions indicate florists' antici- pation of a banner Christmas. Large quantities of artificial flowers are being received from Germany. Before long florists will be able to buy wrapping paper and other paper at lower prices. New Ye^\r's is regarded by many as likely to be the turning point in the in- dustrial situation. WiLLi.vGNESs to resume buying is noted in sonic mercantile lines, denoting a re- sumption of business activity that flo- rists will welcome. Often a florist's views are the result of his own business situation. A ceme- tery florist sees many things differently than does the downtown store proprietor. Flowers never should be "cheap." If they are, the industry never wUl get beyond the hearthstone class, with the family living on the place and doing all the work. Unemployment is not affecting the trade much in the west, outside of auto- mobile manufacturing centers. Eastern and particularly New England florists are less fortunate. Differences of opinion, it used to be said, make a horse race. If they are discussed honestly and calmly, they also make progress. Sometimes the otber fellow's way has some good in it. It would be a mistake to hold off too long on orders for supplies of staple ma- terials in the hope of lower prices. No business can remain at a standstill and others' retrogression will affect us all. Knocking one's competitor is bad busi- ness. First, it makes an unfavorable impression on the listener. Second, if one is busy picking flaws in somebody else, he is apt not to give jiroper atten- tion to remedying the few he has himself. Why is smoking, by proprietor, man- ager or employees, permitted in first-class flower stores? Where much thought and money liave been spent to create a favor- able impression, is anything gained when Mrs. Gotrocks finds a "sleeper" on the desk when she sits down to write a card? Why not limit My Lady Nicotine to the spaces behind the scenes! It is yet to be seen whether the change in administration will affect horticultural importations. Banks are becoming increasingly gen- erous customers of florists. Conservative in many respects, they are the most pro- gressive of professions in recognizing the value of our product in business. Quality is the thing most needed in the florists' business. "Trifles make perfection, but^ perfection is no trifle," said Michelangelo, master of many arts. The nearer we approach perfection the stronger our position, both individually and as a trade. The total production of soft coal dur- ing Thanksgiving week declined, but the rate per working haj increased. The esti- mated output was 11,416,000, the largest in any Thanksgiving week of the last four years. In 1917 the output was 10,- 565,000 tons; in 1918, 9,565,000. Care should be taken to give street and number on everything going through the mails. In ante-Burleson days it was the boast of the postoffice that it could and did supply the omissions and correct the errors of the public, but now the idea is to do as little as possible in those direc- tions. WE MUST PUSH HAEDER. Said a member of the trade the other day: "Florists will have to do more actual selling to dispose of their stock this season. No sales ability was neces- sary during the last two seasons, when the flu raged and people took all the flowers one had right out of his hands. We shall have to become real merchants, real salesmen of our products." Similar opinion is held by others, who regard the approach to normal condi- tions and the continued high cost of flowers when other commodities show a decline, as evidence of a time when buyers must be sought for instead of their seeking the sellers. These persons look for a continuation of good business for those florists who will work to get it. In short, it will not be enough to have flowers in the icebox; the florist must have the ability to sell them. This is a progressive view, not a pessi- mistic one. It recognizes a need before it is on us, and enables us to prepare to meet it. Good business is continuing and will continue. We must all push harder, however, to keep it up to the profitable basis where we would have it. READJUSTMENT. The greenhouse industry finds itself in a condition which is the effect of the business conditions of the last three years and whose remedy is balked by the present industrial situation. Short- age of workers and the high price of building materials liave caused a cessa- tion of growth in glass area, if not a decline, until many florists fear hin- drance of the trade's progress by un- derproduction. Yet, while growers real- ize tlie necessity of more glass, they are hesitant to make contracts with the builders or for material, lest they find that they have bought on the verge of a falling market and later sustain a loss. This feeling is the same as that pre- vailing generally and producing a busi- ness apathy unheard-of for many years in the weeks just prior to Christmas. It is purely a psychological attitude, for which few can give a logical reason. The general belief is, however, that this sentiment will not last till spring; it will change to activity when 1921 ar- rives. There is even danger then of a press of orders, an urgent demand, which will send up prices in the lines affected, reacting to the disadvantage of those now waiting for more favor- able prices. It is not safe to hold off too long; either a sudden strong de- mand, sending up prices, or shutdowns, resulting in bread lines, would be un- desirable and unhealthy. ENCOURAGEMENT. In the various phases of business there are signs that give encouragement to florists in regard to the prospects for the coming year's business. Despite the present commercial languor there is an optimistic tone in the outlook as noted in reports of the situation. Last week Dun's said: ' ' Signs of betterment in business and sentiment, if slow to appear, are rather more distinct in certain quarters. The retail movement, although lacking the desired breadth, is accelerated as the holidays draw nearer, and some primary markets are recovering a little from their lethargy. Yielding prices in- variably place a temporary check on operations, but there is usually a point at which buyers' interest will be re- awakened, and this basis is apparently being approached in some leading lines. Yet the whole situation is uneven and uncertain, as is natural in a time of re- adjustment, and the general policy is one of deferring important action until conditions become more stable. "After the turn of the year, when results of inventorying and Christmas trade shall have been made known, the future business outlook may seem less obscure. The groundwork for subse- quent improvement is being laid during the present transition, and the year's grain and other harvests, while not measuring up to some previous stand- ards in money value, are fortunately abundant in quantity. Recognition of this fact gives rise to confident expecta- tions, and the indications of relaxation from the monetary tension, which may become more definite after the year-end settlements are completed, also afford a reason for encouragement. ' ' ONE THING AFTER ANOTHER. Rome was not built in a day, nor can one reach the whole trade except by continuous effort. It takes time even when the article is advertised by those who use it, like this: I enclose $4 to pay for The Review two years In advance, ns I find it ns necessary for the busi- ness as bread and butter are for the Individual. — Michael Mandl, St. Paul, Minn., November 24. 1920. If one has the ability to satisfy and hold his customers, any business will grow as the news goes 'round, like this: The sample copy we asked for has been re- ceived; It's a dandy; The Review Is just what we w;int; enclosed find check for a year's subscrip- tion.—G. W. Gardiner &. Sons, Fall River, Mass., November 26, 1920. If you hear a man complain of the cost of advertising you can be pretty certain he spends a good bit of money elsewhere than in The Review.

Freeman Crause. Mrs. J. B. Freeman Crause, known generally to florists as Mrs. J. B. Free- man, died suddenly Monday night, De- cember 6, at the home of George Beitell, 910 Fernwood avenue, Toledo, O., where she lived. She had been at her store all day, and upon returning home in the evening remarked that she was feeling unusually well. "With her husband, she had been discussing a proposed vacation in California. While preparing to re- tire she collapsed and died before the arrival of a physician. Heart disease was said to have been the cause. Mrs. Crause, under the name of Mrs. J. B. Freeman, had for ten years con- ducted one of the leading flower shops in Toledo, at 336 Superior street. She bought the business in September, 1910, from George Heinl, with whom she had been connected in business, it was said at that time, for thirty years. She had a considerable reputation as a designer and decorator and her energy was the subject of much comment and admira- tion. One of the most enterprising in a city of live florists, she was wddely known throughout the trade and every- where highlj' esteemed. Mrs. Crause was 58 years of age. Be- sides her husband, she leaves a grand- child, Eleanor Potts. William H. Wyatt. It was a great shock to the floral world of Philadelphia on the morning of December 1 when it became known that William H. Wyatt had died suddenly of heart failure in his store on the after- noon of the day before. Following so closely on the death of Mrs. Wyatt, which occurred that morning after a long illness, Mr. Wyatt 's death seemed even more tragic. For more than thirty years "Billy" Wyatt, as he was called by his com- rades, carried on a retail florists' busi- ness at 236 North Thirteenth street. He had many warm friends, who were exceedingly fond of him and always looked forward with pleasure to his visits to their stores or greenhouses. Sometimes he was accompanied by Mrs, Wyatt and their two daughters. Their presence added to the pleasure of the visits. Mr. Wyatt was a mrmber of many societies. Possibly this may explain the fact that he built up r. strong busi- ness in what was not generally supposed to be a good flower neighborhood. The funeral, which was largely at- tended, took place Friday, December 3. There were many beautiful flowers. Mr. Wyatt was C4 voars of age. Phil. William H. Lutton. William II. Lutton, founder of the William H. Lutton Co., greenhouse builders. New York, died Tuesday, November 23, at his home at Eidge- wood, N. J., as the result of an automo- bile accident early in November. Mr. Lutton was born in Brooklyn, N. Y., forty-four years ago. lie received his early training in greenhouse heating under the late Samuel Burns, of Thomas W. Weathered & Sons Co.. and in 1900 went into business for himself, incor- porating in 1914 and serving until re- cently as president and general manager. Mr. Lutton was an indefatigable worker, always on the alert for new ideas and improvements; and because of his ster- ling qualities, progressiveness and thor- ough knowledge of his business, enjoyed an enviable reputation as one of the foremost authorities on the construction and heating of greenhouses. Mr. Lutton is survived by his wife and daughter, his mother, and six brothers and sisters. The funeral was largely attended by his many friends and brother members of the local lodge No. 211, B. P. 0. E., Jersey City, of which he had been a popular member for many years. Interment took place Saturday, November 27, in Bay View cemetery, Jersey City. J. W. Gurley. J. W. Gurley, for twelve years in the florists' trade at Newnan, Ga., died at his home there October 20. Mr. Gur- ley was well known among members of Wm. H. Lutton. the trade in Georgia. lie leaves a wife and son. who arc carrying on the busi- ness. JiUius Schumann. .Julius Schumann, one of the pioneer florists of Newport, Ky., and well known to most of the older florists of Cincinnati, O., died at the age of 73 years at his home, on Alexandria pike, Newport, Ky., Sunday morning, No- vember 28. Death was due to pneu- monia, which was the culmination of an illness of more than twehe y(>ars, dur- ing the last few years of which he was practically helpless. Mr. Scliumann's entry into the flo- rists' business dates back nearly fifty years, at which time he started a small place at Bellcvue, Ky., just across the river from Cincinnati, O., and later re- moved to Newport, Ky., on the Alex- andria pike. Previous to his death he had not been active in business for about twelve years, having been forced to retire on account of his illness. The greenhouses were, upon his retire- ment, turned over to his two sons, Wil- liam and Edward Schumann, who conducted the place for a few years. Later, William built a range of green- houses for himself immediately adjoin- ing his father's place. The old estab- lishment is now conducted by Schumann & Wahlers, his youngest son and his son-in-law. The deceased is also sur- vived by a widow and two daughters. At his wish, his body was cremated at the Cincinnati Crematory, in Clifton, 0. Mrs. Edward LeizmaJi. Mrs. Edward Leizman, of Latrobe, Pa., died Friday evening, December 3, after an illness that had not left her since last fall. Mrs. Leizman had been in the retail florists' business in Latrobe for over ten years. T. E. Johns. T. E. Johns, of Wixom, Mich., a di- rector of the Sioux City Seed Co., Sioux City, la., died December 7 at the old family homestead near that place. He was for many years superintendent of the pea and bean growing business of the Sioux City Seed Co. in Michigan, with headquarters at Millington, but for the last few years had lived a retired life on the old family homestead. He is survived by his brother, H. A. Johns, of Sioux City, and his nephews, H. B. Johns, of Millington, Mich., and W. E. Johns, of Sioux City, who are active members of the company. He was married in early life to Loretta Beal, who died many years ago. He was born January 5, 1845, and raised on the homestead where he died. Mr. Johns was a man of sterling in- tegrity and deep-seated convictions, of independent mind and a lovable char- acter, highly loved and esteemed by his neighbors and everybody who came in touch with his life. CHICAGO. The Market. There is no complaint as to the busi- ness of the last week; it was excellent. It is true, however, that the splendid volume of shipping orders accounted for a larger part of the total than it should; the local retail trade is not so active as we would like to see it. It seems that the Chicago market is being specially favored this season; prices are not so high here as they are reported to be at some other places, but a larger number of buyers than ever be- fore are drawing their cut flowers from this center and are maintaining a steady business of excellent volume. Weather conditions last week were not all that could be desired. There were warm days and wet ones, not at all conducive to maintaining the high qual- ity of stock for which the season has been noted. One and all, the trade hopes for clear, cold weather from now till Christmas. The market has been cleaning up in good shape each day, but of course where such great quantities of stock are being handled the iceboxes never are actually empty. Recently they have held few roses or carnations, but quite a few mums at night. There are quite a few late mums, this year, principally Helen Frick, and they are not in such strong demand as might have been ex- pected. Apparently the public has been surfeited. On the other hand, late pom- pons still sell well. There never has been a variety of greater value to the [Contliniod on paffc 58.] DECEMIlKll 'j, I'jL'O The Florists^ Review 51 OBITUARY Mrs. J. B.

Sunshine, grown by the disbudding method, has been more abundant than in any previous season and the principal handlers rarely have been cleaned out during the last fortnight. Sweet peas have felt the sunless days and have lost color as well as dropped buds. There are extremely few flowers now on the market that are well adapted to corsage use. There is a carefully regulated supply of valley, but cattleyas almost are what the high school kids call non est comeatable. There are few violets. The greens situation shows little change. There is enough asparagus so far this season. Boxwood is not in as large supply as in other years. Good holly is reported extremely scarce. Eed berries are fine. Christmas Prostiects. Of course the size and, especially, the quality of the Christmas supply de- pends to a large extent on the weather conditions during the next two weeks. Given ordinarily favorable weather, this market has the prospect of an unusually large and fine supply of roses. Colum- bia will be the leader, several of the largest growers and numbers of smaller ones reporting that their crops of it seem perfectly timed. Premier will oc- cupy second place, with good crops also of the less largely planted sorts. The comparatively small supply of Beauties again vdll draw eastern Beauties here. Russell will be less abundant than in recent years and there will be compara- tively few red roses, Richmond having been dropped by nearly everyone, while only a few have succeeded well enough with Milady to have maintained their plantings of it this year. Carnations will be in fair crop, but the quantity of plants on the benches is less than in any recent year. The idea of price runs all the way from 8 cents for ordinary white to 18 cents for Ward and red, but few wholesalers will take orders for other than assorted colors. There will be few sweet peas and fewer violets; probably there will be a smaller supply of violets than for many years. There will be poinsettias as usual, more pompon mums than ever and about the usual Christmas supplies of valley, lilies, Paper Whites, etc. Cat- tleyas will be extremely scarce. As for the demand, there is general belief that it will break all records. Christmas pot plants are decidedly lim- ited locally in quantity and variety and this is thought to be the condition throughout the country. It is sure to increase the calls for cut flowers. Then, too, shipping demand is showing another increase this year in spite of various unfavorable conditions, and the early orders for Christmas are more numerous than ever. As an- indication of the trend of the demand, one of the leading houses states that the average price on the first 10,000 roses booked for Christmas (lolivery figured out at 32 cents.

There waa a nice little flower show at the meeting of the Florists' Club at the Randolph hotel December 9. It was the night of the annual election, but the excitement of a contest was lacking. The following were elected unanimously: President, Joseph Kohout; vice-presi- dent, A. T. Pyfer; treasurer, A. H. Schneider; secretary, F. Lauten- schlager; trustee for three years, Au- gust F. Poehlmann. Various Notes. Andrew Benson has joined the forces of Paul Weiss and associates, having taken charge of the growing at the Premier Rose Gardens, succeeding David Lundiu. Mr. Benson, it will be recalled, until recently was with the Lombard Floral Co. The Albert F. Amling Co., at May- wood, is preparing to "cash in" at Christmas, having timed the Columbia just right for a full cut. It is said the company has the world 's largest plant- ing of Columbia.

He gives every appearance of health and prosperity. Among the week's visitors have been that pair of well known New Yorkers, Paul Dailledouze and Frank H. Traendly. Mr. Traendly still thinks the New York flower market is the great- est in the world, but admits he finds many things hero that interest him. Frank Goacher (with apologies for the spelling, if it isn't right), representing the J. M. Gasser Co., of Cleveland, was reported in the market this week. Miss Helen Patten, the well known Toledo retailer, spent November 7 in this market, buying for Christmas trade. PITTSBURGH, PA. Tlie Market. This is the between-holiday time, when the cut flower business runs along quietly, but everyone is getting ready for the big holiday of the year. Chrys- anthemums have finished and it is a good thing, as it gives other stock a chance to clean up. Retailers say they are not busy and are now getting time to prepare for Christmas. Carnations seem to be scarce. For some reason fewer carnations appear on this market each year. Violets, also, are among the flowers that are not much in evidence this season, and few have appeared on the market so far. Various Notes. There is considerable complaint from the lily growers that the cold storage bulbs are not turning out successfully. There are so many poor bulbs, they claim, that it is doubtful if they can get purchase money out of their ven- tures. The Pittsburgh Retail Florists' As- sociation held its monthly meeting Thursday evening, December 2, at the Oriental restaurant, Liberty avenue. A pleasant and enjoyable evening was spent. Sunday closing was the question under discussion and the sentiments of the out-of-town florists were that Sunday closing would not be profitable to them. The local florists, however, expressed the opinion that Sunday closing would be possible.

NEW YORK. The Market. With a shoitoning in the general sup- ply, the flower market held its own fairly well throughout last week. It could not l)e said that there was any im- provement in the demand; in fact, sales were away Itelow the normal mark. A good many retailers say that they cannot make sales on the present high cost basis, but others not noted for their low selling prices say that the public is not buying to the ordinary extent and that this is in line with the experi- ence of other industries.

It remains to be seen, as the holidays approach, whether this is a mere tempo- rary condition or one which must be faced from now on. Certain it is that a much smaller quantity of flowers is be- ing used, and if ever some smart local publicity would be useful, it is right now. While roses are in somewhat better supply, arrivals are not at all heavy. The quality generally is fine, particularly in the long-stemmed grades. The move- ment of all roses is slow. American Beauty is in quantity quite sufficient for the demand, at $3,5 to $75 for the spe- cial grades. Hybrid teas are bringing $3 to $30, the latter figure for the best grade of Premier, Columbia, Russell and Crusader. Hadley in the same grade reaches the $40 mark, and Key $60. Premier, among the pinks, is showing to fine advantage. 68 The Florists'' Review Dbcembeb 9, 1920 aiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiMiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiili Raedlein's Practical Assortments | at Moderate Prices = Assortment No. 7—50 Tumbler Baskets, 16 to 20 inches over all, with liners, in two-tone colors ....

Short-stemmed stock is still noticeable, but flower heads gen- erally are of good size. Tlie supply of orchids is not large, but they do not seem to meet with ready sale at $35 to $150 per hundred. Oncid- iums, at $4 to $8 per hundred, also are not active in their movement. Lily of the valley is in fair supply at $5 to $12 per hundred sprays. Easter lilies are a little more plentiful, but move slowly at prices asked, as do rubrums. A few short-stemmed gardenias are com- ing in. The supply of sweet peas is not large, due to the long spell of dark weather, which has caused bud-dropping to a con- siderable extent. The price range is $2 to $3 per hundred sprays. Chrysanthe- mums continue to arrive, with Seidewitz the most prominent variety; the demand for them is light, and much stock stales; fresh flowers bring as much as $6 per dozen, and others scale down to $3. Quantities of singles and pompons arrive with the others and meet a fair demand. There is a moderate supply of miscel- laneous flowers, including pansies, calen- dulas, bouvardias, snapdragons, daisies and stevia. Bulbous flowers, chiefly Paper White and Soleil d'Or narcissi, are arriving in increased quantity, but do not meet with much demand. Amaryllis is taken as a subject for window display, as also is strelitzia. Various Notes.

The violet-like flowers, deep blue, among the compact primula-like foliage, are pleas- ing. There are many other plant sub- jects to be seen at Miller's, including several begonias not usually coming un- der notice. Somehow, begonias seem to be prime favorites of the worthy presi- dent of the S. A. F. and it is quite evident that he grows some of the varie- ties for his own pleasure. A number of specimen plants of Plumbago capensis are seen, and among the primulas there is a big stock of malacoides, Townsendii variety. Apart from the plant stock in- tended for immediate sales, the stocks of dormant material for follow-up use seen in the various storehouses at this establishment would lead one to suppose that Mr. Miller does not intend that one square inch of his glass should go unem- ployed for months to come.

The flower business from all stand- points is slow in this locality and, up to the present, there does not appear to be much Christmas spirit felt. There are those who fear that the Christmas business this ye.Tr will be poor, judging from the large numbers of people out of work, but this cannot be relied on en- tirely.

There was a smaller supply of flowers and a decidedly lighter demand for them. The social season is in full swing. There are balls and parties and dinners and entertainments of all kinds. Most of them require flowers of some sort, yet the market is so large that even all this entertaining is not suffi- cient to make activity in the absence of a general demand. And there is no general demand. The few florists who are termed fashionable, those who serve the 400, are awfully busy. They have all they can possibly do. The many florists who serve the 400,000 or so are not busy. Many of them are quite the reverse. They are getting their Christ- mas plants and making up their Christ- mas hampers. With the advent of December the leading retailers told their customers that chrysanthemums were getting poor, diverting the demand to roses, now com- ing into season. It is just as well, as, with the exception of fine white, useful in decorations, and belated pink, chrys- anthemums are much nearer to being over than seemed possible ten days ago. There are still a good many pompons, which sell pretty well, especially the bright yellows and the good class of pinks. The wholesalers complain that the growers are reducing the size of the bunches, an effort to control the market tliat does harm, rather than good. Columbia is the leading rose today. There are more Columbia sold than any other variety and the price of Columbia is used as a basis for determining the prices of some of the other varieties. The rose crop generally is getting heav- ier, which is a good thing, as the market is none too well supplied with other flowers. Carnations have not come in so freely as was expected. They have held their price well in the face of a slightly declining market. Paper White narcissi have been overabundant at about half the figures of two weeks ago. A cheap bunch can be made today with Stevia serrata and Narcissus Paper White. The demand for orchids is a little less lively, causing a decline from the extreme prices of a week ago. Sweet peas are suffering from their cloudy- weather enemy — bud dropping. Never- theless, a fair number continue to arrive. Easter lilies are doing well and will do better when Jeanne Nonin disappears. Snapdragons are beginning to gain in favor, but calendulas are rather neg- lected. Christmas Prospects.

The medium grades are the popular choice and the prices on these grades are of most im- portance. Fancy grades and the lower grades are more apt to fluctuate and are of less general interest than the medium grades. So the opinion of those best able to judge, that the medium grades of cut flowers are likely to bring about the same prices as last Christmas, is given as a guide to those interested. The Cabinet.

The chairmanship of the committee on novelties has been filled by John W. Rruce, who is admirably qualified for the post. Edwin J.

Why should not the club organ- ize a florists' baseball league? The Show Educational. An important feature of the Pennsyl- vania Horticultural Society's show, held in the First Regiment armory last month, was its educational value; not only to those who know a little about plants and flowers and fruits and vegetables, but to those who do not. The society did a good act when the school children were invited to the show. They came and enjoyed it. Another step forward would be made by providing a committee to tell the children something about the show and to answer their questions. 74 The Florists' Review Dbcembeb 9, 1920 SPECIAL WIRE WREATH OFFER Just ask for our prices on all wire designs SAVE MONEY ORDER NOW Our new price list is ready now.

What an inspiration it would be to those children to have half an hour with Dennis Conner and to hear his happy descriptions of the exhibits! Why, it would make horticulturists of half of them and life-long flower lovers of the remainder. The exhibit of the Charles H. Totty Co., of Madison, N. J., had great educa- tional value. The hardy little pompons, singles and anemones attracted many amateurs. The new and standard vari- eties in the same types from A. N. Pier- son, Cromwell, Conn., were of great educational value in affording oppor- tunity for comparison between old and new. Club Meeting. The December meeting of the Florists' Club was held in the City Club, Broad street, Tuesday evening, December 7. Charles H. Totty, of Madison, N. J., was the speaker of the evening. Mr. Totty gave an interesting account of his trip abroad. He described the carnations grown in England by W. E. Wallace in American-built houses, the finest plants he ever saw, eight feet in height, with wonderful flowers. The exhibits included Christmas flow- ering plants from the Robert Craig Co., among them some marvelous cyclamens; decorative plants from William K. Har- ris; foliage wreaths and holly from Her- man Fimmer, and specimens of the two roses, American Legion and The Oem, from Edward Towill. The attendance was large. Various Notes. Jesse A. Curry, of Portland, Ore., spoke on "New Roses" at the Rotary Club dinner at the Bellevue-Stratford November 18. Mr. Curry occupies the position toward roses in the west that is held by George C. Thomas in tlie east. Edward A. Stroud has been doing good work for the Red Cross. William H. Wyatt died suddenly No- vember .30. Further news of his death will be found in the obituary column. George S. Faulkner has again sought other pastures. The annual outing of the rosarians was held Wednesday, November 17. The party was smaller than usual, but quite select.

There have been some serious cases of stem-rot among carnations in the green- houses. Now that the football season is over, violets do not seem quite so scarce. Charles M, Keegan had the decora- tions for the Dupont ball at the Belle- vue-Stratf ord last week — a fact that was quite generally deplored in the floral world. Mr. Keegan represents the arti- ficial rather than the natural product. Joseph Manda, Jr., West Orange, N. J., was awarded a silver medal for his exhibit of fancy Cypripedium Sanderi and Brassocattleya Irene at the Pennsyl- vania Horticultural Society show at the armory. Carnation Mrs. C. E. Akehurst con- tinues to prove the ideal pink carnation for the grower who- retails his own prod- uct. Mrs. Akehurst is a good keeper, but not a good shipper. The M. Eice Co. reports an increase in business for each of the eleven months of 1920 over the corresponding months of 1919. Ernest F.

J. Habermolil's Sons have had a large number of liandsome decorations for balls and parties since Thanksgiving. The Robert Craig Co. reports that ad- vance orders for (Jhristmas are earlier than usual. Robert A. Craig says the season promises well. Stewardson Brown is in the German- town hospital suffering from a broken leg, the result of a fall. Julius A. Ziim, of Boston, Mass., has sent to H. Bayersdorfcr & Co. the latter 's calendar of 1889.

It was imagined tliat November would finish the mums, but they continue to appear in considerablf numbers and a consid- erable number of really good blooms are ofl'ered, in addition to good supplies of pompons and singles. Koses are cleaning uj) satisfactorily and prices are changed but little. All flowers are of a good color, thanks to the absence of bright sunshine, Ophelias being especially good, but the color of Russell, Premier and Columbia is ex- cellent. Carnations arc not in heavy cro]), but are aui])le for all needs. The bulk arc still lacking in both stem and size of bloom. Violets are scarce and out only a small figure in the market compared with a few years ago. They seem, somehow, to have almost lost favor here. A fair supply of pansies helps in some measure to make u]i for their scarcity. Sweet peas are a little slow. Grandi- floras go as low as .fl, while the best Si»encer.s bring .^4 to $.'j. Jjilies and callas are not abundant, but are amjile for the few calls for them. There are some nice calendulas and many wall- flowers have appeared. Small lots of snapdragons, bouvardias and mignonette came in. Cattleya labiata is about over, but C. Percivaliana is in and a few Trianff's. Cypripedinm insigne is in good supply.

Various Notes. The November just passed was the gloomiest recorded here for twenty-six years. Only two days, November 13 and 14, recorded 100 per cent sunshine and during the last half of the month we only saw the sun on four days. The precipitation of 5.42 inches laised a sus- picion in the minds of some who are continually prating of the evils of pro- hibition that November was protesting against the Volstead act. It was a mild month and the snowfall was light. Nathan Landerman, well known in local cut flowur circles, at one time with Harry Quint and recently at Providence, E. I.,' is managing the cut flower depart- ment of the palatial new Kresgc store, at the corner of Temple place and Washington street. He has a well equipped stand and handsome show cases. Business since the opening, No- vember 29, has been excellent and large numbers of plants and cut flowers are moved daily. A. M. Davenport, Watertown, Mass., has sold his fine collection of specimen Indian azaleas to Thomas E. Proctor, of Topsfield. He has three fine houses of Asplenium Nidus-avis, of which he is probably the largest and most successful grower in America. He also grows large numbers of ferns for dishes, in addition to the larger nephrolepis varie- ties. Houses of cyclamens, begonias, poinsettiaa and other Christmas stock are all in fine shape. Recent visitors have included John C. Latham, representing John Scheepers & Co., New York; George E. Baldwin and Harrv Baldwin, Mamaroneek, N. Y.; C. S. Strout, Biddeford, Me.; F. C. Green, Providence, R. I. Alexander Montgomery, of Natick, Mass., is an excellent grower of roses and his flowers always command good prices. This scison he is growing chiefly Russell, Hadlcy, Premier, Columbia, Double White Killarney and Ophelia. He has also a splendid house of carna- tions, among which Maine Sunshine looms up well.

I., was almost destroyed by a terrific hail storm. Anyone visiting the salesroom now and seeing the big shipments of splendid roses in some twenty varieties coming in daily must marvel at the speed with which the houses were re- paired and even more at the quality of the flowers coming in from plants which appeared almost beyond recovery only last September. Julius Quint, younger brother of Harry Quint, is convalescing from an operation for appendicitis performed at the Eliot hospital. The houses of the W. W. Edgar Co. are filled to overflowing with excellent Christmas plants. Splendid houses of cyclamens and begonias make a great show. In addition are quantities of poinsettias, primulas, solanums, Purity freesias, Euphorbia jacquiniseflora, ferns, palms, etc. Mr. Bartsch, as usual, has everything in excellent shape. Herbert W. Schlaffhorst, secretary- attorney for the allied horticultural in- terests which are fighting for the revi- sion of Quarantine No. 37, who has his headquarters at Horticultural hall, is much encouraged by the support being received from all parts of the country in the fight against the F. H. B. and the campaign will be pushed with increas- ing vigor. At the Houghton-Gorney shop some fine hybrid hippeastrums and well flow- ered camellias were noted last week. The Massachusetts Horticultural So- ciety will have only four exhibitions next year in addition to the spring show, half as many as in 1920. Miss M. R. Case ofTers ,$1,000 for lectures in con- nection with these shows in 1921. One of Penn 's windows last week was devoted to narcissi and a large sale of boxes of Paper White narcissus bulbs is reported. I'ot plant trade here is now quite heavy. W. N. C. PROVIDENCE, R. I. The Market With the chrysanthemums practically gone, the local market has settled itself u]ion the ever dejiendable cornerstones, roses and carnations. These are now coming into the market in good supply and good quality, but the prices hold slightly above those of a year ago. It is doubtful if they will fall much below the present range this season, because of the excessive price of coal and labor. The first of the Christmas greens came to hand last week, but it is evident that it's a handsome thing — this jardiniere — it is an aid toward beautifying: potted plants- cut flowers — ferns — baskets — and in gen- eral use for deco- rative purposes. €L and it costs but little.

A sliortage of the supply from Canada will also affect the market here. The North Carolina holly crop is reported as practically without ber- ries. Various Notes. William E. Chajjpell has been confined to his home by a severe attack of illness. Charles Smith was in "Worcester and vicinity last week on business for the Eastern "Wreath Co. Swansons, Florists, are contemplating making radical changes and additions at their place on Stenton avenue in the spring. Charles Hunt has been overhauling and renovating several small green- houses on Blackstone street that have not been in use for the last three years. Smith the Florist reports a big busi- ness since taking space in the "Washing- ton market. Edward Brooke, of T. J. Johnston & Co., was a business visitor in Boston and vicinitv last week. Eugene McCarron had a large wedding decoration last week of southern smilax and chrysanthemums. The attendants carried colonial bouquets. The Colonial Flower Shoppe, Inc., had the decorations for the coming out party of Miss Bogert. W. H. M. INDIANAPOLIS. The Market. The market has been in a good condi- tion. Ample stock has been coming in to meet all demands. "While a few chrys- anthemums are still available, the sup- ply is so meager that it can be said the mum season is over. Roses are in good shape. Good Premier, Columbia and Oj)helia are in evidence and sell well. Numerous other varieties include all the shades from white to red and are selling well at from $6 to $15 per hundred. Carnations are plentiful, but will not be any too numerous for Christmas. The price is from $4 to $6, with Laddie bringing $8 per hundred. Lilies are ex- tremely scarce. Sweet peas are coming in slowly. A great deal of dark weather has retarded their growth and caused them to drop their buds. The price has been steady at $3 per hundred for good peas, although a few poorer ones have been selling for $2. Stevia has been filling a large place in the market. As always before, it is especially popular for corsage and basket work. Calendu- las are in evidence and are popular for this kind of work. Potted plants are fairly abundant. There has been a fair demand for Jerusalem cherries, begonias, primroses and ferns. Cyclamens have been coming into bloom rather slowly. Although there will be a larger supply at Christ- mas, there will be no overabundance. Various Notes. Irwin Bertermann has returned from French Lick, where he has been taking a rest. I. Eosnosky, of the A. B. C, called on the trade last week. E. E. Temperley went with the Murat Shrinors December 8, to Kokomo, where they were entertained by the Kokomo Shrine Club. John Ileidenreich has his usual lot of fine poinsettias for Christmas. A. F. J. Baur attended the meeting of tlie National Flower Show committee at Cleveland December 8.

Freesias, Paper White narcissi and Chinese lilies are beginning to appear in the market, but the supply does not in any way equal the demand. It is anticipated that about Christmas time the market will be plentifully supplied with these flowers, cultivated es- pecially for the holiday season. There are many flowering potted plants, es- pecially cyclamens, which are selling well locally. Bulbs still have a large local sale. The local market was quiet for a few days after Thanksgiving, but it is now fairly brisk, as the social season is be- ginning. Shipping orders are not so numerous as in the early season of the chrysanthemums, but a considerable volume of shipping business is being done, especially in small mums and vio- lets, which are going to points as far east as Maine and North Carolina.

The Taft Floral Shop, at Taft, Cal., has been sold by George A. Dennison to Mrs. Burns Morgan. Mr. Dennison has been conducting the shop at Taft for a year. The new cuts of roses from the green- houses of the E. W. McLellan Co. are of excellent quality, the Russella being of unusually good color this year. J. A. Axell lias been successful in se- curing extra help to handle his Califor- nia berries and other holiday decoration material, so that his cut flower business will not be interfor(>d with. Mrs. A. J. Gooch has been reviewing shipping lists for past years and she finds that the supply'of large mums has become exhausted unusually early this season. General A. J. Gooch attributes this to the early and heavy rains. Domoto Bros, are showing some fine potted azaleas of the dwarf Japanese type known as kurume. The dwarf trees are a mass of blooms, which run from white to deep pink and include heliotrope, salmon and variegated shades. There are no yellows in the kurume azalea. These azaleas arc grown in the firm's nurseries from its own stock. Enomoto & Co., Inc., did not change their carnation beds to roses. Conse- quently, Enomoto & Co. now have plenty of fine carnations just when the market is short on them. Arrangements have been made to handle large shipments of the California red berries. The United Flower & Supply Co. has just received two cases of" mats from the customhouse and expects to get five cases more during the course of the week. One of this firm said: "We were fortunate in anticipating that there would be a run on straw- flowers. We laid in a large supply dur- ing the season when they were plenti- ful. We have been filling some large orders recently." Frank D. Pelicano visited his ranch Sunday, November 28, and brought back an automobile load of heather.

Miss Dolores Howard, formely with the Art Floral Co., has joined the staff of Joseph's. George P.

The Growers' Cut Flower Co. has a fine crop of inside carnations. The new crop of roses is also coming to the mar- ket in good shape. Funeral work has been keeping the MacRorie-McLaren Co. busy. This firm is sending in some heather. Erica reger- miuans ovata, which is being admired on account of its size and the luxuriance of its blooms. California dried fruits and nuts are mixed with flowers in artistic souvenir baskets which decorate one of the win- dows of the Art Floral Co. Julius Eppstein, of the St. Francis, states that the social season is now mov- ing along briskly and is keeping him busy with decorations for luncheons, banquets and teas. Albert O. Stein is working overtime on account of social affairs. He has had some large orders from families whose daughters are making tlieir debuts in society. This season the debutantes are being introd>iced amid especially fine floral decorations. James Jordan has left the employment of F. C. Jaeger & Son and has joined the staff of the Eednndo Floral Co., at Los Angeles. G. McDonald has also severed his connection with the firm, wiiich lias been joined by Sam Matraia. Speaking of the great difficulty which the local florists are experiencing in ob- taining capable help, F. C. Jaeger, Jr., said: "We hope that the newly organ- ized Retail Florists' Association, by shortening florists' hours, will be the means of inducing members of the young generation to take up this work. At present none of them seems to be go- ing into it. People are rushed with business and first-class men are almost impossible to secure. There may be a number of men out of work in San Francisco, but tlicy are not florists and the long hours are deterring young men from entering the trade." M. M. SEATTLE, WASH. The Market.

In several cases retail shops had to close ahead of schedule because they had no mums left and could not secure more from the growers or wholesalers. Prices held up in good order, and pompons sold freely. After mums, roses proved the item favored by the buyers. The supply of Wards was sold out early, but the trade was able to get sufficient stock of Co- lumbia and Ophelia to carry through. Premier and Killarney were shown in a small way. The notable increase in the cut and quality of carnations caused a better call for this flower. Several shops noted a larger call for corsages than at any previous Thanksgiving. Bouvardias and orchids were in better demand. Paper White narcissi are still new enough to be a seasonal novelty, but are becoming more plentiful each day. Sweet peas are of fine quality now. Lily of the valley is scarce, but a no- table increase in the supply is looked for within the next fortnight. Vaiious Notes.

She found trade conditions good in that section. Eis- don & Desmond are sending in some fine potted cyclamens and the best sweet peas being delivered at this time. The regular "get-together" dinner of the employees of the Hollywood Gardens was held last week, at the New Washington hotel. Motion pictures of the greenhouses and city store were a feature. These dinners are held about once a month and are popular witii the employees. This shop made a special window display for the Washington- Dartmouth football game, using a foot- ball in the center, with huge baskets of mums and pennants of the compet- ing schools on either side. In one of these baskets white mums tied with a green ribbon were placed, while the other held yellow mums tied with pur- ple ribbon. Robert Simmonds, of the Woodlawn Flower Shop, was called to Portland, Ore., last week by the sudden illness of Mrs. Simmonds, who had gone to that city on a short visit. Some of the finest Yellow Turner mums shown this season are coming in from C. H. Benson, of Kirkland, Wash., who is also cutting some nice Chad- wick. Harry Wright, of the Davenport Flower Shop, Spokane, Wash., reports that for Thanksgiving business the same prices as those in effect three years ago were charged. There were not enough long-stemmed mums avail- able to care for the demand. L. W. McCoy reports that the Thanksgiving trade showed a greater demand for cut flowers than expected, while the sales of potted i)lants were less. This shop is receiving some fine cut Paper Whites from its own green- liouses and also some long-stemmed car- nations. H. P. Anderson, of tlie University Flower Shop, on University way, re- ports that Saturday, November 27, de- veloped sales which set a new record for his establishment. Not only was there a heavy sale of mums for cor- sages, but cut flowers to decorate tables for the many dinner parties in univer- sity circles also called for a large quan- tity of stock. Fred Schleicher, who is operating the old Friday greenhouse, has been sending in what are probably the best Paper White narcissi delivered as yet and expects to have potted stock ready soon. The Orpheum Floral Co. cleaned up its stock early Thanksgiving day and was forced to draw on other shops for some lines to complete its orders.

The Burns Floral Co. has been mak- ing a special showing lately of the smaller potted flowers and reports a big sale of dark-colored cyclamens. Potted lionipons are also selling well as the result of special window displays. The Woodlawn Flower Shop intro- duced a novelty football window through the use of a goat. Two large footballs bearing the colors of the VVashington and Dartmouth universi- ties formed the background and the removal of a portion of the floor in the window gave an opportunity for the animal display.

The Spokane Seed Co. reports a good bulb trade this year. The fine, open fall weather has allowed late planting. The Inland Seed Co. reports a com- plete clean-up of all bulbous stock and is now planning for the spring trade.

D. into a man's or a woman's life, is there any way to tell them how glad we are better than to "Say It with Flowers"? Take an instance where a poor boy, per- haps a newsboy or bootblack, secures a position as messenger with some large company. Afternight school and close application to his duties, whatever they may be, there are years of long, weary grind. Finally the day comes when that company must elect a new president and this boy is elevated to this enviable position. How many of the presidents of railroads of tliis country have worked themselves up from such positions as track-walkers? On such occasions as these, in what better way can the asso- ciates of such men express their pleas- ure at his success in life than to "Say It with Flowers"? How often, when such events transpire, do we see in the papers tlie next day that when the new president arrived at his oflSce he found his desk a bower of flowers I There is another occasion that during all their years comes into the life of every man and woman. Each year they have a birthday. Outside of men in public life, this occasion may not be generally known, but there are always a few who remember this day; it mat- ters not how humble or prominent one may be, there is someone who c:n»>s. If we were to forget everything else and simply educate the public to "Say It with Flowers" on birthdays — in a country of 110,000,000 inhabitants, there are 110,000,000 birthdays each year— what wonderful results might be ob- tained! Farewell Flowers. But each birthday means a year nearer to the grave, the goal of each life. At last the sad day comes, and, ordinarily, it is usually the largest flower occasion of that life. It is a dif- ferent sentiment we are now expressing; on every occasion up to this time it has been one of gladness; now it is sor- row. On every one of the other occa- sions there has been something that might have taken the place of flowers, but there is but one way to express sor- row and that is to "Say It with Flow- ers." It is our last tribute to a friend or loved one whom we shall see no more. It is always an occasion that sets both old and young to thinking. For the "'S^Mj^^^ Members of the F. T, D.

Many a young man or woman has resolved to model his life upon that of someone who has just passed to the great beyond; their emotions are stirred and there is but one way to express them, and so they "Say It with Flowers." Older people, when death cornea, realize how short a span life is, at best; they, too, are stirred deeply and flowers, again, are the only mode of expression. But did you ever stop to think that "Say It with Flowers" does not stop with death t How often have we strewn the grave of one who was known to us only through the family treet I have tried to write these articles from a human standpoint, but in the last one, next week, we shall consider it from the practical side.

Mr. Manson favors the plan and hopes other growers will see its advantages. He said he had never seen such roses as were shown at the exhibition. Thanksgiving business was talked over. T. J. Noll, president of the club, said it was a good time for retailers to tell what they thought of different va- rieties of mums, because growers were willing to give them the stock they wanted and throw away undesirable varieties. Various opinions were ex- pressed. Bonnaffon, Elizabeth Smith, Willis, yellow and white Turner and Mrs. M. E. Morgan were pronounced good. December Gem was said to be a good late white. Johnson, Frick and Mistletoe were not favored. Other grievances of the retailers, such as strings, too much foliage and improper grading, were aired. It was agreed on all sides that the grower who sent good, clean stock, carefully graded, to mar- ket had a right to ask the best prices. J. W. Dudley Sons Co. PARKERSBURG. W. VA. CLARKSBURG, W. VA.

Bryson Ayres created a ripple of excitement when he protested against the quantity of "painted weeds" with which he said the florists were cutting their own throats. Miss Ilayden, of Samuel Murray's, spoke for the de- fense, saying that as long as the public liked this product and wanted it, re- gardless of what the florists thought of it, it was the best policy to carry it in stock. "Painted weeds" were consid- ered to bo superior to artificially colored flowers, which were considered an insult to nature.

BALTIMORE, MD. The Market. Some Seiilewitz, Bonnafifon and Mistle- toe mums on the market last week were all that prevented a shortage. Fortu- nately, the demand has not yet reached normal, but for the first cotillion, held Monday, December 6, to start the sea- son off in full swing, the situation cer- tainly looked doubtful for an adequate supply to meet the demand. The first cotillion is one of the largest flower days of the season. Roses and orchids are the flowers most depended upon for this event. These, however, have been quite short in supply. The cause for this is hard to tell; it cannot be duo to any increase in the demand, for this OAK PARK, ILL. iFiL<(0)iR.n©ir AVENUE STATE BANE BUILDINQ Member F. T. D. GEORGE FISHER & BRO. 183 N.

Having heard so much of the short- age of stock that he decided to try to get a line on the reason for it, the writer interviewed William F. McKis- sick, of tlie IjCO Niessen Co. There is no man in Baltimore who keeps in closer touch with the market than Mr. "Mac," and he is usually to be found in an optimistic mood if there is auy possibility, but last week he was look- ing into the future, for December at least, with a good deal of misgiving. He said that, while the light demand at the present time saved the situa- tion, if the history of past years re- peated itself this would not last long, and there was not a proper sujiply in sight to meet an increased demand. Mr. McKissick can tell, to a rose, the amount of stock his comj)auy handled for last year's cotillion. Taking tliis Cleveland, O. ^LTONS ^LOCOCRS 10515 Superior Ave. 3 STORES Peraonal Attention.

The first annual flower show of the University of Maryland was held in con- junction with a fruit and vegetable show November 20 and 21. The exhibi- tion was enthusiastically received by many visitors, and will, no doubt, be- come an important affair in the college functions. Many attractive flower ar- rangements were put on display by the students of the department and, in ad- dition, competitive classes attracted ex- hibits from several Baltimore florists. Two large rooms in the Horticultural building were used for the show. One of these rooms, which held the depart- ment exhibits, was attractively deco- rated with southern smilax and scarlet oak foliage. In the second room, which was decorated with pine boughs and oak leaves, the exhibits of the florists and nurserymen were on display. One fine collection of evergreens, sent by Har- rison's Nurseries, Berlin, Md., was ar- ranged along one side of the room to represent a landscape planting. The flo- rists of Baltimore sent a truckload of flowers of all kinds, which in themselves made a fine exhibit. The exhibition was arranged under the direction of Prof. A. S. Thurston, who has charge of the floricultural work, and James Moss, a son of Isaac H. Moss, of Baltimore, who was the student superintendent of the show.

Schwuke & Co 90 Von Zonneveld Bro. & lMiiliii|)o nO P. C. Kuyper & Co 4 C. P. Meyer Corporation 130 Vnughan's Seed Store 40 054 The same steamers carried 205 bags of garden seed for the American Export Co. and forty-three barrels of garden seed for F, Eynveld & Sons. Twenty- five cases of bulbs arrived with these shipments, fourteen being consigned to Maltus & Ware and eleven to J. W. Hampton, Jr., & Co. WAB EFFECT ON FEBTILIZEBS. A bulletin prepared by a member of the staff of the New York Agricultural Experiment Station, at Geneva, N. Y., on "Some Effects of the War upon Fertilizers," reveals some interesting facts. The data, collected during the years 1914 to 1919, indicate, as sum- marized in the bulletin. No. 471, the fol- lowing: "1. Effect upon kinds. The number of complete fertilizers decreased each year, going from 614 in 1914 to 171 in 1919. The mixtures of phosphoric acid and potash practically disappeared by 1916, while mixtures of nitrogen and phosphoric acid appeared in relatively large number in 1916 and the following years. Acid phosphate brands increased, while nitrate of soda decreased, and potash salts entirely disappeared. Bone, blood and tankage decreased. "2. Effect upon composition. In complete fertilizers the average per- centage of nitrogen decreased appre- ciably after 1915, while that of potash decreased greatly after 1914, and still more after 1916. The average percent- age of available phosphoric acid in- creased considerably after 1914, but with some variations from year to year. The total percentage of available plant- food decreased continually after 1914. "3. Effect upon cost. The average retail cost of one pound of plant-food increased year by year continuously after 1914 in the case of complete fer- tilizers, going from 8.8 cents per pound in 1914 to 33.1 cents in 1919, an increase of nearly fourfold. In the case of acid phosphate, nitrate of soda, bone, dried animal manures, etc., there was an in- crease in the retail cost of plant food, but not relatively as great as in the case of complete mixed fertilizers." IMPORTS OF PLANTS AND BULBS. In the national government 's last quarterly report of horticultural im- ])nrts, the total receipts of plants, bulbs, trees, shrubs and vines for the months of April. May and June, 1920, are val- ued at $70,709. Of the items repre- sented in that total, the stock that is intended to be cultivated for flowers or foliage is valued at $11,109 and is classified in four groups as follows: DUTCH BULBS DOUBLE BEDDING HYACINTHS $52.00 per 1000 1000 Grootvorst 625 BIokabm-K 650 Preaident Roosevelt 625 La Tour d'Auvergne 500 Jaune Supreme 775 Sunflower 400 Chestnut Blossom SINGLE BEDDING HYACINTHS, 3d Size 152.00 per 1000 50G Etna 875 La Victoire 750 General de Wet 750 Ornamental Rose 500 Queen of Blues 875 City of Haarlem 875 Correggio DOUBLE EARLY TULIPS $25.00 per 1000 2500 Couronne d'Or 700 Schoonoord 750 Titian 700 Salvator rosa 2500 Rubra maxima 700 Le Matador 2000 Queen Victoria 1500 Toumesol 2000 La Candeur 3500 Murillo 2000 Rosina 2300 Lucretia DARWIN TULIPS $27.50 per 1000 700 La Candeur 900 Vermilion Glow 750 Wilhelmina 750 Persica HYACINTHS 750 British Queen 275 L'Innocence 1000 Queen of Pinks 375 Kins of the Blues 750 Grand Maitre 750 Caar Peter 875 Ida 875 Kins of the Yellows HYACINTHS, MINIA- TURE SINGLE $35.00 per 1000 800 Baron Van Thuyll 800 Grandeur Merveille 800 Grand Maitre 1400 Queen of the Blues 1800 Kins of the Blues 800 La Grandesse 2700 L'Innocence 600 Gigantea 800 Roi des Beiges TUUPS 850 Early Dawn 850 Pride of Haarlem 750 The Sultana 850 Madame Krelage MIXED TUUPS, SINGLE EARLY $20.00 per 1000 Separate Colors: Pink Yellow Red Purple SINGLE EARLY TULIPS, NAMED $25.00 per 1000 3750 Yellow Prince 500 Artus 2750 La Reine 2500 Cottage Maid NARCISSI 600 Cardinal Wiseman 1000 Lord Macaulay 1500 Leviathan 1500 Mr. PUmsoI 1500 Lord Balfour 1200 Charles Dickens 1500 Victor Emanurt 1500 MacMahon 8000 MIXED, $30.00 per 1000 HYACINTHS, MINIA- TURE DOUBLE $30.00 per 1000 1500 Grootvorst 1000 Chestnut Blossom 1000 Bouquet Tendre 500 Prince of Orange 500 Garrick 500 Bloksberg 500 Sunflower 500 Crown Prince of Sweden 2500 Jacoba van Beiren 3500 Prince of Austria 2500 Duchesse de Parma 700 Belle Alliance 400 Couleur Cardinal 700 La Reine Maximus 700 White Hawk 700 Rose Grisdelin BREEDER TULIPS $6.00 per 100 200 Bronze King 170 Cardinal Manning 250 Copernicus 175 Don Pedro 300 Feu Ardent 200 General Ney 250 Godet Parfait 200 Lucifer 225 Marie Louise 300 Vulcan 250 Yellow Perfection 700 Double Von Sion, $3.00 per 100. 500 Single Bi.

The Breck-Robinson Co., Lexington, Mass., is increasing its capital stock from $25,000 to $125,000. Of this amount $75,- 000 is to be sold to friends and customers of the company. The balance will be held in reserve. The company was founded in 1912 with a capital of $25,000, which at the time was considered ample. The business, however, has expanded so rapidly that additional capital is desir- able for conducting the business to the best advantage. OROWENa STOCK FOR FLORISTS. In its Nursery Trade Department, The Review has constantly presented to that trade the possibilities in developing business among florists. That urging is so ably presented in the editorial which appears on the opening page of the National Nurseryman for December, by one whose sole interest has been in that trade for many years, that it is quoted in entirety here, in order that this im- portant matter may be brought to as wide a circle of nurserymen as possible: "The proper cooperation between the nursery and florists' trades has never been developed to the extent that would seem called for by their close connec- tion. "The fault seems to be rather on the side of the nurserymen, as they are to a great extent the growers of the raw materials which the florist works up into a condition for the consuming public. "There are many florists who also do a nursery business, in fact try to cover the whole scope of horticultural art from making a funeral design or deco- rating for a society function to laying out an estate, and perhaps in fewer in- stances the same may be said about the nurserymen. "There is no reason why they should not, if their organization is big enough to carry experts to compete with spe- cialists in the various linos. "But this is an age of specialists, and usually all the concentration and skill available is necessary to carry on one branch of the business successfully. "With the shutting off of the foreign supply of what might be termed the raw material in the way of plants for forc- ing, it opens up a big field that is in the province of the nursery grower. It re- mains to be seen if the nurserymen proper will force the florists' trade to grow its own material. While it is fool- ish to attempt to draw an arbitrary line between the florist and nurseryman, the fact remains there is a recognized prov- ince for each, due to the fact that the florists' trade is largely one of green- houses and stores, while the nursery trade is growing upon acreage. "The nursery trade should plan to propagate all the plants the florists need, and bring them to the stage de- sired, which is usually 'ready to be forced.' It is only necessary to recall the large quantity of rhododendrons, azaleas, deutzias, roses and other hard- wooded plants that used to be imported to realize the immense demand for early spring-blooming subjects the florist needs in his business. Unless it is available, the florists' trade will either grow them itself, or substitute bulbs, herbaceous and what is generally known as greenhouse plants for the winter de- mand for plants for interior decoration. "There is no doubt the florists' trade will develop its own growers of green- house plants that were formerly im- ported. Its equipment is along the line necessary for the production of this class of plants, but for the propagation and material of woody plants the nurs- eryman is in the best position to give the florist what he needs. "There are endless ways in which the florists' trade could be catered to, to the advantage of both trades. Ever- greens for winter is one of them. Few nurseries make any special effort to give the florists' trade all it needs in tubbed evergreens for porch decorations, or small evergreens for window boxes, or cut evergreens for interior decoration, yet there are many beautiful subjects practically unknown to the florist that could be grown in quantity for the pur- poses of cutting. ' ' There may be reasons why southern smilax, holly, galax leaves, laurel, ferns, mahonia, etc., are gathered from the wild and shipped long distances in such quantities, but those reasons are not complimentary to the enterprise of the nursery trade. This source may be per- manent, but it is very much like wast- ing natural resources. "Then there is a big field in orna- mental berried plants which the flo- rists ' trade knows very little about, and it is up to the nurserymen to show them. One can almost imagine the sensation a big supply of Celastrua scandens, Ilex verticillata and deciduous evonymus would cause if it were available in quan- tity and in prime condition for the flo- rists' decorating trade." AMERICAN ROOT STOCKS. Why Not Grow Our Own? "The federal quarantine law which has gone into effect, prohibiting the importation of many classes of nursery stock into the United States, will prob- ably be the cause of rapidly developing the growing of seedlings as root stocks in this country," declared George C. Roeding, president of the California Nursery Co., Niles, Cal., at the recent convention of the California Associa- tion of Nurserymen.

I was much impressed with the splendid results which the nursery- men were obtaining in growing these seedlings, for many of the fields gave indications of there being almost a per- fect stand. The seed used has been the French crab, botanicalTy known as Malus communis. In more recent years these nurserymen have also engaged in growing the French pear, Pyrus com- munis, and the Japanese pear, Pyrus sinensis, with equally good success where good seed was secured. "It will probably be of interest to know how these seeds are handled. During the winter months the seeds are packed between large layers of burlap, the seed having been dampened first. It is then placed in an ice house, where it remains until the following spring. It is quite remarkable the effect that this freezing of the seed has, causing it to sprout much more rapidly than it would were it not treated in this man- ner. The seed is usually drilled in rows two feet apart just as soon as spring opens. "One of the problems which the seedling men must contend with is in- festation by insect pests.

VESEY, Fort Wayne, Ind. in the locality referred to, an entire block of seedlings may be lost on ac- count of an invasion of woolly aphis. "Possibly in no other state outside of California is there such a demand for fruit trees grown on different roots. In order to show our position clearly in the matter, I want to mention briefly the various varieties of fruit stocks which are used in California. "The apple is the first one in the category. To have a stock which will be free from the woolly aphis is highly desirable. It is a well known fact that it is only a question of time after the trees are planted in orchard form be- fore this insect will be found in the roots. The Northern Spy and Winter Magetin roots are free from this at- tack. Every encouragement should be given to the development of these roots on account of their resistance to woolly aphis. The difficulty which the nurseryman experiences in creating a demand for trees grown on resistant roots like this is to have the purchaser of nursery stock appreciate the expense incurred in the growing of trees and pay the price for the years of labor and extra cost incurred. "It is necessary in the first place to have what are known as mother trees. These trees are planted out in nursery form and remain there for several years. They are dug up in the winter months and the roots are cut off to stubs, when the trees are again planted to develop a new crop of roots, which takes several years. "The method of procedure in han- dling these roots is to cut them up in short pieces, just as is done when piece root grafts are made, except that in this case a Northern Spy scion is grafted on a Northern Spy root. These grafted roots are planted in beds and the fol- lowing year they are planted in nurs- ery rows and budded in the usual man- ner during the summer months. Search for Pear Stock. "More advanced steps are probably being taken on the Pacific coast than in any other part of the United States to find a pear stock which is immune from the attack of pear blight. This is one reason why the Japanese pear stock has been in so much demand in recent years. However, experience is demonstrating that all Japanese pear stocks are not entirely free from the blight attack. "Among other stocks which are suit- able for the pear, I might mention the quince root. This is grown from cut- tings and the pear is budded on. The quince root is also used for growing quince trees, being budded direct onto the quince. In addition it serves as a good stock for the loquat and several Cyclamen Seedlings January Delivery, 3 to 5 leaves German Strain 100 1000 Best Red.

WILLIAM TOOLE & SON , Hanly Plant and Piuy Fam BARABOO, WIS. earlier than they do when worked on pear root. "From time to time the question has arisen as to the advisability of using the quince root for the pear. The most extensive plantings of this root have been made in the Santa Clara valley. That the trees are long-lived is fully exemplified by the fact that in the old A. Block place, near Santa Clara, there are pear trees budded on the quince which are now 50 years old and are still growing vigorously and producing abundant crops of fruit annually. The trees in this particular orchard are planted fifteen feet apart. The fact tfcat so many more trees may be planted on an acre of ground is one of the ad- vantages of this root. Many varieties of pears, however, lack affinity, making ' it necessary to bud the Beurre Hardy on the quince, because of its strong aflBnity for this root. The following year the Bartlett is budded on the Beurre Hardy stock. If the Bartlett is budded on the quince it will break off at the point of union. This method of handling pears is known to the trade as double working. Victim of Prejudice. "The cherry is budded on Mazzard and Mahaleb root. California growers have a decided preference for the for- mer root. The consensus has been that the Mahaleb was not adapted to our soils, and it has been difficult, on this account, to induce growers to purchase trees on this root. This is one instance where reports have been circulated without any investigation having been made to see whether they are worthy of consideration. The effect of the Mahaleb root is to dwarf the tree. However, this has not been the case in California, for I have observed old cherry trees growing in the Vaca valley budded on Mahaleb root doing nearly as well as those which had been worked on Mazzard. The effect of this root has been more to retard the long, whippy growth, which is so noticeable in the cherry tree. The difficulty of ob- taining seeds of these two stocks of the cherry is again one of the problems which will retard the growing of these seedlings in the United States and, until orchards of these varieties are planted and reach a point to produce suffi- cient seed for the seedling growers, it will be necessary to rely largely on the imported seedlings for growing cherry stock. "Myrobalan seed is handled much like peach seed, except that it is nec- essary to stratify it in beds earlier in the fall than the peach seed. We have been successful in planting this seed in nursery rows and growing seedlings CHRYSANTHEMUMS For Florists' Use It is a recognized fact that our products comprise the best for this purpose.

Since the seed is rather small, we have come to the conclusion that it is far better to plant the seed in narrow beds the first year and plant the seedlings out in nursery rows in the usual man- ner the following spring. The seed which has, been bedded, as a general rule, commences to pip in February and is then planted. In order that seedlings may not grow too large, the seed is sown broadcast in rows about eight inches wide, leaving four feet between the rows to permit cultivation and irrigation. One point which must be carefully observed is, do not plant the seed too deep — otherwise it will not sprout. Use of Peach. "It is hardly necessary for me to dwell to any extent on the seedlings which are grown from the peach, apri- cot and almond, for all of this seed is available in this country and no par- ticular difficulty is encountered in grow- ing seedlings. "In the states east of the Eocky mountains, Tennessee seedling peach pits are used, because the seed runs small and there is more to the bushel than of the seed from budded trees. Further than this, the seedling pits grow a more vigorous and smoother tree than the seedlings from budded pits. One would infer that these seed- ling pits would be freer from crown- gaU than the budded seedlings. How- ever, experience has demonstrated that this is not always the case by any means. "In my opinion, one of the impor- tant points in growing seedlings is to be constantly on the lookout for new ground. From my observations in Europe I am inclined to think that many of the troubles which are being experienced with European seedlings are due to the use of the same ground over and over again, for no matter how much fertilizer may be used, this procedure invites fungous diseases which are detri- mental to the stocks. I am practically convinced that the success of the under- taking of growing seedlings in the United States is dependent on securing fresh seed which has been properly cared for. Imported seed frequently ar- rives so late in the season that it is im- practicable to plant it and it must be carried over to the following year."

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 amount 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. PIPING DOWNHILL SYSTEM. Please tell me how to pipe my green- house for hot water heat. The crop will be carnations and the temperature needed will be 45 to 55 degrees. The house is 21x31, six feet high to the eaves and twelve feet to the ridge. The foundations are concrete. The house contains 1,200 square feet of glass. It will require about 350 square feet of radiation, will it notf There is a raised bench in the center and a 3-foot bench at each side wall. The house runs north and south and the boiler room is at the north end. My understanding is that the highest point of the flow may be either over the boiler or at the opposite end. My in- tention is to use two 2-inch flows, run- ning one along each plate, or one 3-inch flow under the ridge. Connected with the flow, or flows, would be ten 2-inch returns, five of them on each side wall, under the benches. Could I attach two 2-inch flows to a Wilks boiler, 24x48? I think this boiler has only one outlet. P. R.— Mo. For a Wilks boiler I should advise using a 3-inch flow pipe, running it about two feet below the ridge, with the liigh- est point over the boiler. A slope of one inch in ten feet will be ample. When a boiler with two flow ports is used it is best, for a house of the stated size and width, to run a 2%-inch flow pipe upon each plate or under the purlins. While a radiation of 350 square feet is not too large to be supplied by two 2- ihch flow pipes, the number of returns necessary will make it advisable to use two 2%-inch flows, unless a single 3- inch flow is used. From the amount of glass stated, I infer that there must be about thirty inches of glass below the plates. If a minimum temperature of 55 degrees is necessary in the coldest weather, it will be advisable to use 350 square feet of radiation, but if there is no liarm if the temperature drops to 50 degrees in the nights when it drops below zero out- side, 300 square feet of radiation will answer. Instead of running the returns along the side walls only, it would be better to drop down two 214-inch pipes from the end of the 3-inch overhead flow pipe, and with each of them feed a coil "Ain't it a Grand and Clorioua Fmmling ?'• Heat Your Houses with Kroeschell Boilers YOLPLX.

CAN SHIP ANY SIZE AT ONCE NOT CAST IRON NOT CAST IRON TELEORAPH ORDERS AT OUR EXPENSE The KROESCHELL has proven its worth in many of the large establishments in this country. It has frequently been selected by the most careful buyers in competition with all other types of boilers. Its efficiency and capacity are com- pletely beyond any other boiler. KROESCHELL BOILERS have no bulky, soot accumu- lating surfaces— you avoid the disagreeable work and trouble indispensable to cleaning boilers with compli- cated and tortuous back and forth passages. The superiority of our boilers has resulted in the removal and abolishment of hundreds of cast iron sectional boilers— in every instance KROESCHELL BOILERS give more heat with the same piping with less fuel.

During the last fortnight there has been no sunshine, and both growers and retailers have been worrying about the Christmas stock. The sun has begun to shine again and the hearts of the florists are glad. The dull weather was beginning to affect the color of the flowers and pessimistic reports were coming from the growers. However, all that is changed and the present re- ports show that there will be an abun- dance of stock and the retailers can ar- range for a big Christmas trade. Various Notes. As part of the scheme for the dispos- ing of the Christmas stock, there vdll be a general publicity campaign. Since the larger florists will probably have no difiiculty in disposing of all the stock, the main idea is to assist the smaller members of the club. The people have the money and will spend it at Christ- mas. The other trades are doing some heavy advertising and the florists can- not be behind in advocating gifts of flowers at Christmas. Unless the people are reminded, they are apt to forget and buy something else. The seed business of J. A. Simmers, Ltd., has been sold to J. G. Purvis, formerly manager of the William Bon- nie seed business, and C. S. Morrow. J. J. H. SALT LAKE CITY, UTAH. The Market. Mums still hold on, but the poor qual- ity at present shows that the end is near. The rose supply is in excess of the demand, especially in the long grades. The prices are good and the quality is excellent. Ophelia, Dunlop, Hoosicr and Columbia are the only varieties which clean up at all, these bringing $10 to $30 per hundred. Carnations are mov- ing fairly well at $4 to $7 per hundred, with the supply about equal to the de- mand. The sweet pea supply is increas- ing, but all that can be had move read- ily. Pot plants are beginning to find a good market. Cyclamens, begonias and ferns are the big items at present. Various Notes.

The last few days of last week brought a good increase in business. However, conditions are far from satis- factory for this time of the year. Busi- ness was chiefly made up of funeral work during the last few days. Al- though the supply of stock was not large, at no time during the entire week did the demand come up to the supply and there was practically no clean-up in any line of seasonable stock. All members of the trade are looking forward to Christmas and orders have already started to come in. This makes the outlook for the future a little bet- ter. Various Notes. The Washington Floral Co. is cutting some fine stock at present and its roses, orchids and many other varieties of stock continue to find ready buyers, despite the present market conditions. George Shaffer was exceedingly busy with funeral work last week. He also had a number of large decorating jobs.

Some varieties of cut stock are scarce, roses more so than others. Carnations are arriving of fine quality. There has been little call for Paper Whites, but they hold at 6 cents. A few callas are coming in now and some good Easter lilies are to be had. Sweet peas are improving in qual- ity every day. Small quantities of vio- lets complete the list. Shipping trade last week was good. Poinsettias promise to be unusually good this season. This market seldom sees them with good foliage, but, bar- ring mishaps, within the next two weeks there will be plenty of good blooms. Various Notes. The Roberts Rose Co., besides its cut flower trade, is fast developing its busi- ness in rose plants out of pots for bed- ding purposes. The company's slogan is: "Western roses for western condi- tions." J. T. Roberts says, "We believe that own-root, pot-grown roses are far better in the semi-arid west. They will show a far smaller loss the first year than dormant stock. We have on our list only such varieties as grow vigor- ously without budding. They include the hybrid teas, polyanthus and climb- ing roses of all kinds. Albert Hambergcr is cutting fine sweet peas now. Ben Boldt has a splendid house of poinsettias. Walter G. Lehrcr is cutting good carnations from his new range, on the north side. He reports having done well with his mums this year. The City Floral Co. has a fine crop of poinsettias, and also quantities of ciner- arias that are coming along nicely. George McNamara, with Frank F. Crump, Colorado Springs, Colo., was a visitor last week. Elitch Gardens Co. has a fine lot of freesias coming on. R. E. H.

Owing to the continuous dark weather the last two weeks and mums being out of the market, the supply of stock is not equal to the demand. Sweet peas were mostly affected by the dark weather, many of the plants having dropped their buds. There is, however, some stevia coming in, and also Paper Whites. Various Notes. There was a well attended meeting of the Florists' Club Thursday, December 2. The election of ofl&cers was held and the foUovdng were elected: President, Fred Gutermuth; vice-president, Alfred Locker; treasurer, James Livingstone; secretary, Eugene Oestreicher. Carl Menger was elected trustee for three years. The new ofBcers are all young and active men. Considerable is ex- pected from them during the coming year. The entertainment committee has arranged for a theater party, which will be given this month. There was a meeting of the officers of the Wisconsin State Florists' Associa- tion at the Blatz hotel, and matters pertaining to the next convention were taken up. Those in attendance were: President Eichard Haentze, of Fond du Lac; F. H. Holton and John Rindfleisch, of Beloit; James Taylor, of Oshkosh, and George Vatter, of Marinette. C. C. Pollworth has returned from his annual hunting trip, bringing back with him an exceptionally large buck. P. NEWPORT, R. I. The Newport Horticultural Society has voted to hold a series of lecture meetings during the coming winter, at which speakers of prominence are to dis- cuss horticulture, floriculture and kin- dred topics. Mr. and Mrs. James Matson left this week for Los Angeles, Cal., where they will make their future home. Mr. Mat- son is going into the fruit growing busi- ness. He has been in this country twenty-eight years, twenty-two of which he has been gardener for Mrs. William Grosvenor. James Clunes has resigned as gardener for Arthur Curtis James to accept a similar position on Mrs. William Gros- venor's estate. Oscar Schultz has recently disposed of some of his property holdings on Stockholme street. Frank Gencek has recently purchased real estate adjoining his property in Jamestown. W. H.

As less than half of the blooms can be seen in the picture, the beauty of this plant can only be imagined. Mr. Donald McNaughton, Superintendent, grew this remarkable prize-winning plant in the Foley Greenhouse of E. S. Moore, of Lake Forest, 111. This is the beautiful white mum, Elmer Smith's produc- tion, which won the Foley Prize at the mum show a few years ago and was named after Philip Foley's youngest daughter by Elmer Smith. Foley Greenhouses are so thoroughly well built — the Foley Heating System is so ample — and so dependable, that growers can be sure of sat- isfactory results from their efforts, no matter whether the flowers be the delicate orchid or the hardy mum.

I wish to ask a few (|uestions in re- gard to the crojiiiing of gladioli for Memorial d;iy. I have .jiisl finished cntting a cro]) of mums. Can I use the soil in that tiench for jilanting gladioli or should it )ie enriched or dumped.'

MEAD^UYDAM CO. 342-346 Sixth Ave, Newark, N. J. FIRST COST THE LAST COST Wlien should Mrs. Francis King be planted? Is there a better \ariety than this for forcing? How far apart should the rows be? Is there any crop I can grow between now and the time for planting gladioli? The bench is in my carnation house. "Will bulbs from my own garden be satisfactory? D. f'. C. -Coh,. The (dd mum soil will be satisfactory if ,v(,u gi\i' it a dressing of shee[i ma- nure or well rotted stable manure and foi-k it over w(dl. For Memorial day. gladioli should not be planted until the end of February and, if you gniw the liriniulinus \arieties, the miciille of March will be early enough. Let the rows run ten incdies apart ami ]ilnce the bulbs from four to ti\e inches ajiart in the rows. Mrs. Francis King is an excellent forcer. Other good varie- ties are America, Halley. Mrs. Watt. Panama and Augusta. iW 110 means overlook some of the handsome jirinui- linus hybrids. A mixed assortment will ]irove serviceable. Bulbs from your garden will force w'ell, but of course not so w(dl as jirepared bulbs. C. W. Dkcembeu U, l!i20 The Florists^ Review 183 J\lt\^ GREENHOUSES A decorative greenhouse is a practical necessity to the country estate. Many city dwellers who have spacious grounds enjoy a small, attractive greenhouse as well. The illustration is a good example. Up-to-date florists very frequently take advantage of these attractive designs for show rooms in the rear of their stores. Those who have them say they never made a better investment. This is just a reminder to you that we can build you anything you want— a flower factory or a sales factory.

To do this he must become acquainted with the possible ways of reducing waste, one of the most important of which is pointed out in this article. HE subject of fuel economy is today of greater interest to florists than ever be- fore. There are two rea- sons: First, fuel costs two or three times as much as it did a few years ago, and second, in many instances during the last few years it has been difficult to get at any price. The first reason is one that will remain. Prices of fuel, no matter what kind, will un- doubtedly stay high, compared with prices before the war. The second reason should, however, vanish entirely when once labor and transportation facilities are properly controlled. The high cost of fuel, therefore, pro- vides the principal incentive to save it, and the greater the cost the greater will be that incentive. The two principal factors which enter into the cost of fuel are labor and transportation. Its price to the consumer will be governed by these two charges, plus whatever addi- tional charge competition will permit the mining interests to add. Up the Stack. No matter how fuel is consumed and no matter what kind of fuel is burned, whether solid, powdered, liquid or gase- ous, the biggest loss is always due to the heat energy wasted up the chim- ney. In this connec- tion it might be well to quote the follow- ing conservative statement from bulle- tin No. 205, issued by the bureau of mines: "In the average boiler plant, thirty- five per cent of the heat in the coal burned under the boilers is lost with the stack gases. That is, out of every 100 tons of coal burned under the boilers, the heat of thirty-five tons literally goes up the stack. It is this loss that can be greatly reduced, and every effort should be made to do so. ' ' The loss up the chimney, which is al- ways the largest in- dividual loss in any heating plant, de- pends for its magni- By F. F. UEHLING, Combustion Engineer. tude on three factors. These are, in or- der of importance: First, excess air in the products of combustion; second, tem- perature of the products of combustion; third, amount of unconsumed fuel in the i^roducts of combustion. Air Consumed. The excess air in the products of combustion results in loss greater than that from any other source. Every kind of fuel requires a definite amount of air to burn it, the exact quantity depending principally upon the ratio of its carbon and hydrogen. When considering coal, for example, the principal constituent is carbon, every pound of which requires twelve pounds of air to completely con- sume or oxidize it. All air that is used above this amount is known as excess air, and when supplied in greater quan- tities than is necessary to meet the particular conditions of the furnace in which the fuel is burned an unnecessary burden is immediately placed on the temperature possibilities of the furnace and the amount of fuel consumed to ac- complish a desired result increased in proportion. Even in fairly good practice about Waste Costs High When Boilers Burn Fifty Tons of Coal a Day twenty-five tons of air is used to burn one ton of coal, and in the more poorly operated plants this amount is often doubled. Twenty-five tons represent a lot of air. Under normal conditions, it occupies a space nearly 16,000 times as large as the coal which it consumes. If this amount of air were contained in a pipe with one square foot cross sec- tional area, it would have to be long enough to extend nearly from New York to Baltimore. Stated in another way, if the floor of a room were covered with coal to a depth of one foot, the ceiling would have to be three miles high in order for the room to contain as much air as is generally used to burn that amount of fuel. The fact that so much air is consumed in burning one ton of coal is not realized by the fireman and the important relation which this huge mass bears to fuel economy is generally not given sufficient thought by his su- ])eriors. Although air costs nothing and is available in unlimited quantities, when used to burn fuel in excess of what is re(|uir('d, as is the case in the average lieating jjlant, it becomes one of the most expensive raw materials. Determining Waste. All the air that is used in burning coal, whether under steam boilers or for any other process, ai)i)ears in the products of combustion. If three times as much iiir is used as is neces- sary there will b»' just about three times as m u c h products of combustion as neces- sary. This gas as it passes up the chim- ney contains the major portion of the heat that is unneces- sarily wasted. Every degree of temjiera- ture to which each ])()und of this gas is licated above the temperature of the atmosphere means iibout 0.2.J heat units that go to waste. The exact amount of heat wjisfed in this wav can be determined by tlie weight of the jiroducts of combus- tion i)er jtound of fuel burned, and the tem- ])erature at which tlicy leave the furnace or enter tlio stack.

The other loss up the chimney, namely that due to unconsumed fuel in the products of combustion, is usually not so serious. The old idea that a smoky stack is a sign of tremendous waste is not always true; in fact, whether the gases leaving a chimney are smoky or smokeless is no indication at all as to the efficiency with which the fuel is consumed. . Steam boilers, for example, connected with a stack that does not show the slightest trace of smoke may burn twice as much coal pfer pound of water evaporated as when smoke is in great prominence. Black smoke is, of course, unburned carbon, but the amount of carbon in this light and finely divided form that is necessary to give the products of combustion a dark or even a black appearance is generally only a small fraction of one per cent of the actual fuel burned. The additional un- consumed fuel that is apt to be present in the products of combustion is carbon monoxide and hydrocarbons, both of which are caused by an insufficient air supply or the improper mixture of the air with the fuel before it is ignited. Although it is possible for the loss due this way be determined at once, and the best efficiency under the working con- ditions of any plant can generally be obtained and maintained without the necessity of lengthy and elaborate tests. / Ideal Combustion. With ideal combustion the rate of burning and consequently the amount of heat energy developed in a unit of time would- be in proportion to the amount of air supplied. Unfortunately, how- ever, conditions under which fuel is burned are far from ideal. In everyday practice air is supplied to the fuel in such excessive quantities that only from one-third to one-half of it combines with the combustible to liberate the heat which it contains. In ninety-nine cases out of a hundred, this condition is simply due to a lack of facilities for knowing whether the proper amount of air is supplied per pound of fuel con- sumed. When carbon, the principal constituent of any fuel, is completely burned the result is COj. Complete combustion occurs when air is supplied in excess of what is needed. When, however, the air supply is reduced or regulated to approach that which is theoretically required there is also a possibility of incomplete combustion, due to an insufficient amount of air lo^t^a Florists Gain Bigger Share in Mid-West Horticultural Exposition. to this cause to bo serious, it is a fact that the avorajie loss from this source can safely be estimated as less than two per cent. Reducing Losses. To reduce chinmev losses to a mini- mum, no matter what means is used, we must know whether or not the proper amount of air is being supplied, whether or not air has been jiroperly mixed with the fuel before it was ignited and whether or not too much heat is left in the products of combus- tion as they pass up the chimney. Un- der all conditions these important facts can be determined with the consistent use of fuel gas analyses and tempera- ture measurements. The effect of any change in fuel or method of firing, the results of any additions or changes, or the value of any new appliance, can in reaching part of the combustible. When this is the case some of the carbon in the fuel will burn to CO instead of CO^. It must be remembered, however, that the big loss in practice is due to excess air and not to an insufficient supply. FLOWERS TO THE FORE. That Iowa florists are awake to trade possibilities is evidenced by the rapid strides with which they pushed flowers into prominence at the annual Mid-West Horticultural Exposition, held at Coun- cil Bluffs, la., November 15 to 20. Up to this year the exposition was almost exclusively agricultural. A careful study of the illustration on this page will reveal the fact that it is no longer exclusively agricultural; on the other hand, it would appear that, before long, flowers might be one of the pre- dominant features of the exhibition. Blaine C. Wilcox, of J. I". Wilcox & Sons, Council Bluffs, la., recently elected president of the Society of Iowa Florists, was in charge of the floricu> ture department of the exposition, and it was largely due to his activity that ^ such excellent results were obtained. Among the exhibitors of flowers at the exposition were: Pinehurst Floral Co., Pleasant Hill, Mo.; Kirkwood Floral Co., Des Moines, la.; Iowa State College, Ames, la.; F. L. Lainson, Council Bluffs, la.; J. S. Wilson, Des Moines; Oscar H. Herman, Council Bluffs, and L. Stapp Co., Bock Island, 111. Many of the extensive floral decorations on the walls and ends of the exposition hall were arranged by Vern Wilcox, of J. F. Wilcox & Sons. These were not in competition. MOTT-LY MUSINGS. "My sentiments exactly," observed Samuel R. Hansen, of North Troy, N. Y., following a perusal of the program is- sued by the Chicago Florists' Club for its meeting December 9. "It's the best thing of its kind yet issued, unique in its arrangements, up-to-the-minute and worthy of its composers. It will be my endeavor to carry out something similar during my term as president of the Al- bany Florists ' Club, realizing the amount of latent talent we possess, which only needs uncovering to discover its wealth. It has taken our western confrere to ex- press what is in the minds of all who have graduated in our profession and, as we are becoming more and more practical and the sentimental becomes merged in the commercial, the impor- 'tance of having one's attention called to the value of our profession as a science cannot be overestimated. An- other point to make," continued Mr. Hansen, "is the ever burning question of what constitutes a living price for our product. As the matter now stands, we are far removed from practicing the Golden Rule, and not until we do this, mark me, will the business be conducted along satisfactory lines. The subject of supply and demand overrules all and, as the bulk of the stock handled is perishable, absolutely no set rules or laws touching prices can be satisfactor- ily followed. Granted that a schedule of prices makes interesting reading, one's business is governed by its en- vironment and, while we may do much toward educating public taste for our product, it remains for the individual to carry out in his limited sphere what the big brothers are trying to accom- plish as a body." It was incidentally mentioned at the time of this interview, just after Thanksgiving, that prices at wholesale had not receded. The outlook for Christmas business was propitious for plant sales. W. M. Sedalia, Mo. — L. n. Archias, presi- dent of the Archias Floral Co., has been appointed a delegate to the Interna- tional Farm Congress, which will be held at Kansas City, Mo., December 9 to 11. The appointment was made by Governor F. D. Gardner. Lincoln, Neb.— C. H. Frey makes the interesting report that practically all his Christmas plants for wholesaling were ordered up a fortnight before the holiday. Orders were not so large as last year, but were much more numer- ous. Weather for shipping never was so good. December 16, 1920 The Florists' Review 23 mAmuiiiumaiLUii^^ GROWING OUR OWN s^ ODAY we all seem to be T confronted with dozens or more of serious and per- plexing problems regard- ing our business today and tomorrow. Even with all these conditions the nurs- ery and florists' trade of California is really in its infancy. We are operat- ing in a new era. Economical and finan- cial conditions are -different. Ethical business principles are different. Social and political conditions are changed. What are going to be the results for you and mef Many business men now have the well fed feeling that comes from a four years' banquet of big profits and can- not yet realize that lean times can ever return. This not necessarily has been the situation in the nursery and florists ' business, for our trade seems to have been slower than all others to increase its prices in proportion to costs of pro- duction. There no doubt were many reasons for this, but it was mostly due to the lack of close cooperation and or- ganization obtaining in other trades. It is not my intention to forecast a price movement, but I believe most ob- servers will agree that the high point in commodity prices has been reached, and that from now on we may expect a general downward tendency for several years. Likely this will not be entirely true in the prices of florists' and nurs- ery stock and a few other commodities, but most, I feel certain, will decline. New Capital. There is plenty of money in the country for the purpose of business operation, but not enough to care for the present and immediate future needs of business. Almost universally, the merchant wants to expand and the banker wants to contract. Sooner or later the business man must accept the banker's view. Capital therefore be- ing denied, industries question how pro- duction can be increased without avail- ■able funds. The answer is that new capital only comes from one source, and that is savings. Wealth is created only out of savings. Do you realize that the leading capitalist of today is the man who earns a daily wage? When we con- sider that the wage earner is receiving approximately seventy per cent of the total income of the country, it becomes obvious that the wage earner is the in- dividual who must become thrifty in order that the country may progress. With our extravagant tendencies at The address of Roy F. Wilcox, of Montebello, Cal., on "Growing Ornamentals Formerly Im- ported," delivered November 12, at the tenth annual convention of the California Association of Nurserymen, at Fresno, at which he was elected president for the ensuing year. present, the country is not saving a proper proportion of its income. There- fore the problem of increasing actual capital and reduction of inflation seems to be the foremost of our problems, and the increase will only come when the in- dividuals who receive seventy per cent of the nation's total income spend wisely and save. The situation will also begin to improve when business men take it upon themselves as individuals or groups to see that their communities and trades enter more seriously into pro- duction and that the practice of good, old-fashioned thrift comes again into general use. Profits are bound to come with prosperity, if the country can be induced to work and save. Opportunities in Home-Building. It is not the short-sighted but the far- sighted merchant and banker who are starting the movement of decline. We had best admit this and be thankful that because there is much building to be done, the liquidation is to be gradual and not panicky. The present tendency in lumber is for prices to go down, but if the building demand continues, many prices may yet advance. The nursery trade will likely follow the home-build- ing development, which will no doubt mean a new awakening and a great op- portunity if properly considered and handled by the trade. However, with this prospective trade development and a possible general business decline, we must carefully guard our interests and be alert at all times. Eemember the elementary laws of business and avoid small wastes, closely guard your costs of production and carefully plan your market. The "take it or leave it" attitude will no longer do as a sales policy. How many have a cost of production system? I dare say extremely few. How many of us simply work and do not use our pencil enough, and then wonder why our profits arc sometimes small! Accurate costs are the best guides in times of narrow profits, but it seems al- most impossible to get accurate costs in our trade. This would seem a worthy subject for investigation, for the benefit of all. American-Grown Stock. Truthfully, I am unable to understand the methods and plans of many nursery- men. Many buy most of their stock from nurseries other than American nurseries, and many have exceedingly poor credit principles. Many of the places are crammed full of junk and un- salable stock, which has likely been in the same place for years. Why not sell this stock for at least some small amount and get something new growing in its place, or otherwise dump it? Possibly you wonder what bearing all of these statements have on the sub- ject, "Can we grow ornamentals form- erly imported. ' ' They are indeed linked with every phase of it and the problem really before us is, "Is California ca- pable of producing the classes of orna- mentals formerly imported and are the men of this state going to grasp the great opportunity presented as a result of the embargo?" Some of our eastern friends hate to concede that stock formerly imported can be satisfactorily grown in this country and particularly in California. Most certainly this class of stock can be grown here, and our variations of climate and growing conditions open great prospects for the men of our trade. California is the most logical place in the country. Specialize on one or two items, prepare for the eastern demands and take advantage of the most wonder- ful opportunity and conditions. Few of you realize the great possibilities and wants of the eastern florists and grow- ers. They are anxious for good, salable plants. Palms in California. Of these importations, California can grow almost any of them. My business at Montebello is devoted mostly to the growing of several hundred thousand kentias, boxwood, heather for cut flowers and a few other ornamentals for local or eastern trade. Shipments are made in carload lots as far east as New York and throughout the central west and south. Bassett & Washburn, at Sierra Madre, specialize entirely on the growing of kontia palms, and have a fine modem place. At their place and our place there are about 800,000 growing now. Constant building is being done to plan for a jomplete rotation and prepare for a large industry. This means a large investment and also waiting about six years before first returns are received. These palms are grown from imported seed, wliich takes from six months to one year to germinate. They are grown a year in the greenhouse after germina- tion. Then they are planted in the Now Wc Must Grow Most of This Stock, Imported in One Year Before Quarantine 37 Was Laid.

That growth is con- tinuous is indicated by the fact that there are fourteen new florists repre- sented this week. In the Beginning. Of course, the telegra])h delivery de- partment was an im])ortant feature of The Review before it ap])eared on rose- colored pajier. Though the Pink Part is 3 yi'ars old, the retailers' depart- ment was started many years ago. It was inaugurated in The Review of De- cember 2.'), 1902, long before the organi- zation of the F. T. D. was even con- ceived. That beginning eighteen years ago was small. Six florists were rej)re- sented. Three of them are still in the Pink Part, W. J. Smyth, Chicago; John Breitmeyer 's Sons, Detroit, and the William Scott Co., Buffalo. The other three are no longer in business. The second week the number had doubled and at the end of the year there were thirty florists in the department. Since then the growth has been steady and continuous. Expectations Fulfilled. Sturdy as was the development be- fore, it has been far more rapid since the adoption of rose-colored paper for this department. The expectations in making the change were expressed in the first appearance of the Pink Part as follows: It is pprffctly plain tliiit the rose-colored sec- tion will he so eiis.v to consult tliiit it will be the Kuide' ^ery Horist will iikc in selecting the re- tailer tti whom lie will scnil his order — no mat- ter how many other lists a man may have among the papers on his desk, he will reach for the one that is tlie first to catch liis eve — the one he knows always is there, at his linnd — the one that he knows is revised weekly every florist with an order to ko out will consnlt the rose-colored section. How fully those expectations have been fulfilled are shown not only by the growth of this department, but also by the receij)t of such letters as the fol- lowing from those who make use of the Pink Part: Do the advertisements in the Telegraph De- livery Department of The Keview pay and are tliey read? We say they do and they are! And we hope to see the time when that department will be a »Jtg41tVli)t^t}§«Bg^iA84lliJ!^l^l^l^l^t^t^:^ mmui\M}i2i!M^ium'M .^ CLUB ELECTIONS i^ CHICAGO FLORISTS' CLUB.

Baur, of Indianapolis, secre- tary of the American Carnation Society, spoke on behalf of the coming conven- tion and exhibition, January 25 and 26, at Washington, D. C. Secretary Baur expressed a desire to see Chicago carna- tion growers take a greater interest in the national organization and called upon local growers to support the car- nation society. He pointed out that the New England growers are doing won- derful work to promote the carnation. There will be many new varieties shown at the coming convention, he said. Paul Klingsporn, C. C. Pollworth and A. T. Pyf er spoke in behalf of the west- ern grower of carnations and pledged support at the coming exhibition. Michael Barker, chairman of the transportation committee, submitted a report covering transportation in con- nection with the carnation convention and it was decided that the Chicago Florists' Club and friends select the Pennsylvania railroad for the trip to Washington. It was decided to use the fast Pennsylvania train leaving Chicago 10:30 a. m. and arriving at Washington 9:28 a. m. the following morning. This is a regular fare train, on which rates are as follows: Railroad fare $30.97; sleeping car, lower berth $8.91, upper $7.13, compartment $25.11, drawing room $32.40. The transportation com- mittee will issue an announcement cov- ering all details. Carnation Ball. After considerable discussion, it was unanimously decided to hold a dancing party and carnation ball about two weeks after the installation of officers, in January, 1921. This matter was placed in the hands of the committee which managed the "Say It with Flowers" dance, held recently. President Waters called upon the members to give a hearty vote of thanks to the exhibitors, and it was unani- mously decreed that this was one of the handsomest and most interesting flower shows held by the club during the pres- ent year. Upon motion of Paul Klingsporn, it was decided that the exhibit of cut flowers be turned over to the hospital and Secretary Lautenschlager and Mr. Klingsporn were appointed a committee to deliver the flowers immediately upon the close of the meeting. NEW YORK CLUB EUBCTS. Hendrickson Next Head. A regular meeting of the New York Florists' Club was held in the club's rooms, in the Engineering Societies' building, Monday evening, December 13, Isaac S. Hendrickson. (Newly Elected President of the New York Florists' Olnb.) with an attendance of over 200. Presi- dent A. M. Henshaw presided. It was election night, and balloting oc- cupied considerable time, although, owing to declinations, competition was narrowed down to the contest for trus- teeships. The election resulted as fol- lows: President, Isaac S. Hendrickson; vice-president, Roman J. Irwin; secre- tary, John Young, reelected; treasurer, Wm. C. Rickards, Jr., reelected; trustees, to serve three years, Joseph A. Manda, Percy B. Rigby, reelected, and Anton Schultheis. The following were elected to mem- bership in the club: Chas. Forman, 35 West Bigbteenth street. John Nicholas, 501 West One Hundred and Forty-fifth street. Patrick Morelli, 130 First avenue. Max Myer, 841 West Flfty-flrst street. Jancttet Splro, 784 Lexington ayenue. W. H. Rogers, 153 South Blllott place, Brooklyn. Demetrios Haliklas, 46 Myrtle avenue, Brooklyn. Herman Dreyer, Tenafly, N. J. The following were nominated for elec- tion to membership at the next meeting: Arthur Ponlas, Yonkers. Hyman Spitz, 1677 Pitkin avenue, Brooklyn. Otto C. Kraft, Bergenfleld, N. J. Bruno Ehrinan, Secaucus, N. J. John H. Rodman, Brooklyn. Jack Bracker, East Williston, N. Y. Philip Decker, Orange, N. J. George Sullivan, 112 West Twenty-eighth street. William SuUivan, 112 West Twenty-eighth street. Secretary Young, for the committee appointed to prepare memorial resolu- tions on the death of Past-president William Plumb, read resolutions, which were, on motion, adopted. In response to the wish of President- elect Roland, of the S. A. F., that the club nominate the next state vice-presi- dent of the society for eastern New York, it was unanimously voted that Max Schling be the appointee. Committees. Clifford Lowther was appointed chair- man of a transportation committee, with power to appoint associates, to make travel arrangements for all intending to attend the convention of the Amer- ican Carnation Society, at Washington, D. C, January 26 and 27. During the convention period it is understood that there will be a meeting of the American Flower Growers' Association, and it is possible that the annual meeting of the executive board of the S. A. F. will also be held at that time. Peter Gerlaird, chairman of the house and entertainment committee, an- nounced that the night of the regular meeting, January 10, would be ladies' night. C. H. Totty, for the flower show com- mittee, reported progress. There had been a meeting of the committee that afternoon, he said, at which the cut flower schedule, prepared that morning by the subcommittee on schedule, had been adopted and ordered to be printed. A resolution was passed instructing the secretary to send the necessary qualification to the S. A. F. to make the incoming president the club's represent- ative on the society's executive board during 1921. Allied Florists Make Progress. Business completed, the meeting was turned over to the Allied Florists ' Asso- ciation, which body included most of the club's members. The chairmen of the different sections of the associations presented reports, all showing progress. It was evident, however, that difficulty was bein^ experienced in getting the retailers into line, mainly because no Dece»iui;u 1<), l!)ii() The Florists' Review 27 plan of assessment, had bucu adopted. Henry Hessiou, representing the Asso- ciated Ketail Florists, favored a con- tinuance of the old ])lan of voluntary subscription, amounts to be determined by those making subscriptions. J. T. Caparell, rejjresenting the (5reck-Amer- ican Florists' Association, favored the assessment i)lan of a certain percentage of retail purchases from wholesalers. No definite plan was decided u{)on. Wallace E. Picrson, Cromwell, Conn., spoke at some length upon the subject of publicity. He expressed himself as in favor of the growers' underwriting the campaign with the assistance of the other branches of the trade. W. J. Palmer, of Buffalo, N. Y., told of what the Buffalo florists had done in the way of local organization, and Robert Kift, Philadelphia, explained the assessment plan which had been adopted in Phila- delphia. Adolph Poehlmann, of Poehl- niann Bros. Co., Chicago, was present and took much interest in the proceed.- ings. The Exhibition. A very croditahli' exiiibition was staged and ])assed upon by the eonimit- tee on awards. A. N. I'ierson, Inc., Cromwoll, Conn., staged a vase of Chrysanthemum Decem- ber Beauty, which scored 90 points and was given a ]ireliininary certificate. Strout's, Inc., Biddeford, Me., staged a vase of Carnation Maine Sunshine, which was awarded SG points and a pre- liminary certificate; a vase of Carnation White Delight, scoring 90 points and gaining a preliminary certificate; a vast> of Carnation Improved Ward, scoring 87 points and gaining a preliminary certifi cate; a vase of Carnation Donald, scoring 8.'5 points and winning a preliminary cer- tificate, and vases of Carnations Crystal White and Rosalind, awarded votes of thanks. Marina Mathcron, Baldwin, X. Y., staged vases of Carnations Crystal White and Hope Henshaw, which were awarded votes of thanks. Edward Towill, Roslyn, Pa., staged a vase of the new ro.se, American Legion, which scored 8.3 points. He also showed a vase of a new seedling rose, for which he was given a vote of thanks. White Bros., Medina, N. Y., received a vote of thanks for a vase of a new rose, said to be a white sport of Sunburst. The flowers arrived in damaged condi- tion; therefore the committee could not score it. Geo. Schlegel, Brooklyn, N. Y., S. G. Milosy, grower, staged specimens of Cypripediuni No. 28, which was given a certificate of merit, subject to naming. Charles Thayer, Greenfield, Mass., was awarded a vote of thanks for the new carnation, Greenfield. J. H. P. AMONG DENVER'S LEADERS. Eight years ago, June 3, 1912, P. R. Lundy and Ben TJoldt opened the Boldt- Lundy Flower Shop at 614 Sixteenth street, Denver, Colo. As the Boldt- Lundy House of Flowers, this estab- lishment is toilay one of the foremost in Denver. The accompanying illus- tration shows the interior of the retail store, which end of the business is under the capable management of S. R. Lundy. Mr. Lundy was at one time employed by the Park Floral Co., Denver, and for some years berore he entered into partnership with Ben Boldt had been traveling for the A. L. Randall Co., Chi- cago, and was well known in this con- nection. He has worked the business up from almost nothing and it is ini])rov- ing every day. At busy times Mrs. Lundy heljis her husband in tlie store and all the members of the staff arc busy people. ]5ernard Boldt, better known as Ben Boldt, has been as successful in the greenhouse as Mr. Lundy has in the- store. . He is considered one of Den- ver's best growers and has made a specialty of fine plants. He was boni in Prussia in 1808, where he received his early training, coming t(j America jKised upon tlie well-to do class of peo- ple in the way of contributions that flowers became a secondary considera- tion and that those who were regular customers jirevious to that time patron- ized flowers siiojis much less frc(|uently.

He was first emploved with J. H. Rebstock, of Buffalo, N. Y. In June, 1900, he went to Denver and was employed as foreman by the Park Floral Co., with whom he remained until 1905, when ho took charge of the greenhouses of the Daniels & Fisher Stores Co. About 191(6 he bought a greeniiouse range and was in business for himself, doing a wholesale, retail and cut flower trade, until 1912. The present partner ship works out in great shape. Mr. Boldt has all his time to devote to growing, and Mr. Lundy has a clear field for de- veloping retail trade. BERTERMANN A BOOSTER. Optimistic on Business. Two-thirds of a column in ;iii Indian apolis news]»aper one day last week was devoted to an interview of Irwin Bcrter- mann, of Bertt'rmann Bros. Co., on the holiday lousiness in flowers. His rciisdii^ for expressing himself optiinistic;ill\ should give less j)ositive believers a basis for more encouraging views. The article read in part: "The holiday tr.ade in all kinds of flowers promises to be one of th<> best local florists have ever had. ;ilthopu larity and growing deman served, which, no doubt, means ;i rush to come.

P. i'WlVS^IXf^LiS^lvS^l^^tXS^l^'LVS^lJ^^^^^ S. A. F. NEWS PUBLICITY COMMITTEE MEETING. A meeting of the national publicity committee was held in the Hollenden hotel, Cleveland, O., Thursday, Decem- ber 9, at 10 a. ni. There were present: Henry Penn, Boston, chairman; George Asmus, Chicago; Wallace R. Pierson, Cromwell, Conn.; J. F. Ammann, 'J]d- wardsville, 111.; Major P. F. O'Keefe, Boston, Mass.; Vice-president F. C. "W. Brown, Cleveland. O.; President-elect Thomas Eoland, Nahant, Mass.; Secre- tary John Young, New York; Finance Committee Chairman Herman 1?". Knoble, Cleveland, O., and H. V. Swenson, Chi- cago. Visitors were: George Bate and Mrs. E. G. Wilson, Cleveland; Frank H. Traendly and Eugene Dailledouze, New York, and Patrick Welch, Boston. The minutes of the previous meeting, held in Indianapolis October 14, were read, and, with a correction in keeping with a recommendation of Mr. Asmus, approved. The first business was consideration of the past-due account of the E. F. Brinkman Co. for slogan billboard signs. The discussion resulted in arrangements being made for the payment of the ac- count in full before the end of the year, final details being left in the hands of Mr. Asmus. A report presented by the Florists' Publicity Service Bureau showed that 220 billboard signs had been sold since October 1. Charles H. Fox, Philadelphia, ap- peared before the meeting with a full report on the insurance endowment plan presented at the last meeting of the committee, which plan had received the endorsement of the F. T. D. at its last meeting. The report showed that Mr. Fox had devoted considerable time to the plan, and in offering it he expressed himself, as ready to answer all ques- tions concerning it. As already pub- lished, the idea embodied in the plan was the creation of a fund for national publicity campaign purposes. The re- port was fully discussed, and during the discussion Mr. Swenson gave informa- tion as to the views of the plan his traveling men had obtained from the trade visited. Mr. Fox was given a hearty vote of thanks for his report, and, upon motion, the plan was referred to the executive board for action at its next meeting. Mr. Fox promised to submit the report formally to the so- ciety, so as to make it of record. Major O'Keefe made a stirring ad- dress covering the present status of the campaign. He expressed his confidence in the ability of the allied trade asso- ciations in the different cities to solve, without any doubt, the problem of rais- ing funds for the campaign. While the plan of securing funds until then had proved successful, a bigger success as- suredly would result when a more equitable basis of contribution was de- cided upon. Mr. Ammann followed the major with a talk full of enthusiasm as to the progress already made throughout the country in the direction of the forma- tion of allied associations such as re- ferred to, and gave it as his opinion that it would only be a short time be- fore all bodies were in working order. Mr. Swenson presented a report show- ing the profits derived from sales of dealers' helps made by his bureau from September 1 to December 1. Mr. Pierson discussed the objects of the American Flower Growers' Associa- tion, and expressed it as his opinion that the national publicity campaign should be underwritten by the growers and that the twenty-five per cent of dues the allied associations intended to pay into the campaign fund should go to the A. F. G. A. and by them be paid into the campaign fund. That there might be no misunderstanding as to this recom- mendation of Mr. Pierson, he promised to put the same in writing for the records. It was decided to present some defi- nite plans for action before the next meeting of the executive board, so that the national advertising could be con- tinued with vigor and on a more satis- factory basis than heretofore. Messrs. Traendly and Dailledouze, who left hurriedly to catch their trains, expressed their hearty accordance with the suggestion that the campaign be in future conducted by the growers, and that their funds to be disposed of be applied as Mr. Pierson had suggested. The meeting continued until late, as it was the object of the gathering to clean up all matters pending and to decide upon a plan of action to be presented to the executive board next January. The secretary was given further in- structions as to the collection of amounts still due from delinquent sub- scribers. John Young, Sec'y. REPRESENTATION ON BOARD. Time for Application.

John Young, Sec'y. BOSTON. The Market. A long spell of dark, dank and dismal weather has not been conducive to good business during the week just closed. Betail demand has been fair. There have been some decorations, in addition to wedding and funeral orders, and an encouraging number of advance orders are coming in for Christmas. There is always a lull in trade before the great winter holiday and, while few antici- pate any record-breaking business, all are optimistic enough to look for one which will be cheering and encouraging. Roses are arriving in fair numbers and sell well at from $8 per hundred upward for hybrid teas. American Beauties, all of which are grown outside New England, have reached the dollar- mark and are meeting with an improved demand. The supply of carnations is comparatively small. Most of the growers are holding their crop for the holidays. Prices average somewhat higher than a week ago. Chrysanthe- mums continue to come in and some are of fair quality. Some will hold out un- til Christmas. Sweet peas of good quality are less abundant. The dark weather has caused a heavy drop of buds, and values on good Spencers are higher. Small lots of yellow marguerites, wallflowers, calendulas and bouvardia come in. The last-named is now quite short-stemmed. Cut poinsettias have already appeared. The bracts developed unusually early this season. Violets continue scarce and pansies are less abundant. Few other flowers are seen, outside of stevia and Paper Whites, both of which are abundant. Cattleyas are scarce, but cypripe- diums are in good supply. Swainsona largely displaces valley in bouquet work. Some nice gardenias are arriving and sell at $4 to $6 per dozen. There is an abundant supply of pot plants and these are being pushed at all the stores, while cut flowers are high-priced. Boston Florists' Association. The monthly meeting of the Boston DXCEMBEB 16, 1920 The Florists^ Review 31 Florists' Association was held at the City Club December 7, when there was a good attendance. In the absence of Henry Penn, who was at Cleveland, William H. Elliott presided. An excel- lent dinner was served, as usual, follow- ing which a communication was read from the New England Gladiolus So- ciety asking support for its next ex- hibition in Horticultural hall, Boston, and one from John Young, who men- tioned the possibilities of affiliation with the S. A. F. As the association falls considerably below the necessary 100 members, no action was taken on the latter. The nominating committee, consist- ing of F. E. Palmer, A. S. Parker and H. A. Eyan, brought in a list of nom- inees for 1921. Some of the nominees withdrew their names and finally officers were elected as follows: President, B. F. Letson; vice-president, E. F. Gibbs; treasurer, F. E. Palmer; recording sec- retary, W. J. Thurston; financial secre- tary, J. Frank Edgar; executive com- mittee for three years, Henry Penn, Elijah S. Gorney. The speaker of the evening was Wil- liam H. Elliott, who lectured at length on his recent nine months' tour of the United States, particularly in Califor- nia. After incorporating his business he decided to take a long trip and left Boston early in March, going first to De- troit, where, piloted by Philip Breit- meyer, he visited leading growers and inspected the Ford works, especially the farm machinery section. His next stop- ping place was Chicago, where the great flower markets and growers were vis- ited. Then he saw St. Paul and its twin sister Minneapolis. Mr. Elliott visited many bankers and other prominent men here to gain their views about the Non- E artisan league, later covering North lakota and getting the views of Sen- ator-elect Ladd, a native of Maine, Governor Eraser and numerous farmers and tradesmen. At Spokane, Superintendent of Parks John W. Duncan, formerly of Boston, took Mr. Elliott in hand and in a 100- mile automobile trip showed him the best sights of that city, finishing with a florists' dinner at night. At Seattle, Stimson's, of Hollywood, had excel- lent greenhouses and fine stock. The greenhouse roses there and in Portland had more body than any others seen dur- ing his travels. It snowed all the time he was in Portland; in fact, the far western and Pacific coast weather did not come up to expectations. He stayed in San Francisco during the Democratic convention and attended most of the sessions as a New Hamp- shire delegate. His Sierra Nevada mountain trip started early in July and lasted thirty days, the nights being spent under the open sky. The moun- taineering caused a loss of twenty-five pounds avoirdupois, but proved wonder- fully interesting. The Sequoia national park was described interestingly. Sugar pine cones eighteen to twenty-three inches long were noted. The biggest tree, the Sherman, measured thirty-six and one-half feet in diameter. An abundance of seedlings was noted, these coming especially well in burned- over land. In Humboldt county, where the redwoods. Sequoia sempervirens, abounded, one specimen measured was 363 feet in height. Many were 300 feet or more. One was twenty-three feet in diameter. Good redwood land gave 600,000 board feet per acre and one monster was said to contain 250,000 board feet. The various industries of the late C. W. Ward were described and the won- derful growth of azaleas and other plants in the nurseries at Eureka was emphasized. He doubted, however, the commercial value of the azaleas. After some time spent visiting the growers, parks, etc., in and around Los Angeles, Pasadena, etc., the well known Imperial valley was passed through, stops being made at five cities. The wonderful soil, vegetation and prosper- ous condition of the growers were com- mented upon. Many Mexicans were there, and he left with a much higher opinion of Mexicans than he had for- merly entertained. At El Paso he was taken to see a genuine bull fight, which he humorously described. The lecturer had numerous photographs and was given a rousing vote of thanks for his interesting talk. J. J. Karins, representing Henry A. Dreer, Inc., was a visitor and made a short address before the meeting closed. Various Notes. Excellent marguerites from A. E. E. Koch, of Nobscot, and John T. Gale, of Tewksbury, are coming into the mar- ket. Patrick Welch, P. F. O'Keefe, Thomas Roland and Henry Penn arrived from Cleveland December 10, after a pleasant business session. Cyclamens of superb quality are com- longiflorum giganteum, and considerable demand for gladioli for forcing. The big wholesale store of Henry M. Robinson & Co. is a busy place these days. Christmas goods are in immense supply and the demand is brisk. Holly, contrary to expectations, is splendidly berried and selling well. Cut flower trade is everything that could be ex- pected, and a bigger business than a year ago seems probable. Wollr.ath & Sons, of Waltham, again have a magnificent lot of cyclamens, in- cluding many large specimens, which would be hard to duplicate. Their poin- settias, also, are remarkably fine and practically all plants carry dark green foliage clear to the pots or pans. All their other Christmas stock is of high- grade quality. The agricultural and horticultural or- ganizations which have met together the last few winters at Horticultural hall will hold the next union gathering in the week commencing February 7, 1921. The New England Nurserymen's Association and the Gardeners' and Florists' Club of Boston are among the cooperating societies. J. Karp, who operates the Dudley Flower Shop, at 2190 Washington street, Roxbury, reports business as most sat- isfactory and Christmas prospects as ex- cellent. ' W. N. C. POLLWORTH PROVES PROWESS.

At the meeting of the Gardeners' and Florists' Club December 21, officers for 1921 will be elected. William H. Elliott will speak on "My Trip to the High Sierras," and will have numerous stereopticon slides to illustrate his lec- ture. Albert C. Burrage will make a notable orchid display at Horticultural hall De- cember 18, the last of the year. John T. Butterworth is cutting a fine crop of zygopetalums, Oncidium or- nithorhynchum and cypripediums. Plants of Cypripedium insigne Sanderaj carry as many as thirteen flowers each. The seed stores report a good call for lilies, including speciosum, auratum and side the spoils of the hunt. In other words, C. C. PoIIworth bagged another deer this fall — and a big one too, as the reader may judge for himself. The week of Thanksgiving was chosen for Mr. PoIIworth 's annual hunting trip this year. He reports a splendid time, with four inches of snow on the ground, making hunting conditions almost per- fect. Arlington, Tex.— T. H. Duncan has started in the florists' business here.

We give them. You get them. We both have them. Wk can sell all the good stock we can grow. R. Vincent, Jr., White Marsh, Md., is 77 years of age. He was born in Eng- land, December 1-6, 1843. It is tlie irony of fat.i', after sweating over the accumulation of a l)ig coal pile for winter, to have the ])recious stuff set itself afire in the slied. Uncertainty is the greatest business obstacle at present. The consensus is that underlying conditions augur improve- ment when confidence in the price level is restored. No florist should attempt to do busi- ness without a printed letterhead. To send orders on plain paper at once sug- gests to the wholesale dealer that here is a small buyer who should pay retail prices. Bradstkeet's index of wholesale prices indicates a drop of one-third from the top notch figure of a year ago, or to the level of December, 1916. But the com- modities listed do not include florists' requirements. Anonymoi's contributions are not heeded by The Review. Readers should sign their names to correspondence to the editor, wlio will respect valid rea- sons for their omission in the publication of communications. Materi.\l for both tlie editorial and the advertising columns of The Review should reach this oflice not later than Monday to appear in the current week's issue. Nothing is to be lost, moreover, by getting it in earlier than that. From all parts of the United States comes the report that the shortage of greenhouse labor has passed, but it is manual labor only which is in surplus; experienced help still is scarce and prob- ably the supply never can be increased except by training young men who show aptitude for the work. It is believed by some that the present surplus on the labor market is due more to a desire of large industrial establish- ments to lower their labor costs than to a slackening in demand for workers. When readjustment is accomplished, all will enjoy business prosperity again on lower price and wage scales. Ali. danger of a fuel famine has jiassed in the widesj)road decrease in in- dustrial activity. Prices are falling. Florists as a whole are to be congratu- lated on continued good business in com- parison with the lack of it in most other lines just now. CHICAGK) TO WASHINGTON. The- transportation committee of the Chicago Florists' Club has selected the Pennsylvania railroad for tlie trip to the convention of the American Carna- tion Society and the meeting of the National Flower Growers' Association, to be held at Washington, D. C, Janu- ary 26 and 27. The party will leave the Union station, Canal and Adams streets, on the Manhattan Limited, Tuesday, January 25, at 10:30 a. m., and arrive in Washington the following morning at 9:28. The fare one way, tax included, is $30.97. Pullman fares are: Lower berth, $8.91; upper, $7.13; compartment, $25.11; drawing room, $32.40. Other Pennsylvania trains include the Broadway Limited, leaving the Union station at 12:40 p. m. and arriving in Washington at 9:28 the following morn- ing. On this train, an extra fare of $7.78 is added to the regular ticket rate named above. The Pennsylvania Lim- ited, leaving the Union station at 5:30 p. m., arrives at Washington at 4:30 p. m. On the Baltimore & Ohio railroad, trains leave Chicago at 8:40 a. m. and 10:45 a. m. and arrive at Washington respectively at 7:30 a. m. and 9:00 a. m. The fare one way via the Baltimore & Ohio, tax included, is $29.97. Sleeping car rates are the same as given above. For reservations address W. E.

Growers are discussing a suggestion that meetings of large middle-western and eastern producers be held to see what can be done in the direction of maintaining prices commensurate with the cost of production, some of those interested having decided that all the signs point to an overproduction of young stock, particularly rose plants, and cut flowers in the first half of 1921. It is true, of course, that a knowledge of what it costs to produce good stock has some influence on the determination of the seller to demand and maintain profitable prices, but cost of jiroduction never has, and probably never will, con- trol our prices. In this trade prices are controlled almost solely by supply and demand. We had a good demonstration of that in the first half of 1920, when for a time demand so exceeded supply that prices were forced upward to the point that the public sharply curtailed its purchases, whereupon the pendulum swung the other way and supply so ex- ceeded demand that prices fell far be- low cost of production and much cut stock and some plants were sold through department stores, drug stores, etc. Eventually the public learned prices had fallen and resumed buying, restoring equilibrium. It will be ever thus. We cannot regulate prices; it will be folly to try. Nor can we regulate supply; it will fluctuate with the seasons and will increase when profits rise and decrease as profits fall. But we can regulate de- mand by stimulating it. That is our best chance. The Review does not see reason to be- lieve that there will be overproduction in any line of our business in 1921. There will be seasonal gluts more or less as in the past, but production has not recently increased so fast as demand has grown and if there is some decrease in the demand in the next few months, due to general business conditions, it scarcely can do so much as to restore the balance. But if the public should de- cide the prices of plants and flowers are too high, it would be folly to try to de- feat the working of the old law of sup- ply and demand. Any ,attempt to main- tain prices by artificial means could only bring disaster. SHORTEN LIGHT TO HASTEN CROP I To get poinsettias ready for the mar- ket by Christmas is a problem that has worried florists ever since the bright red, flower-like leaves of this beautiful plant took their place as a favorite holi- day decoration, says the U. S. Depart- ment of Agriculture, although it does not state where it got its information. "The problem has been reduced to a practical solution through the work of Dr. W. . W. Garner, tobacco specialist, and H. H. Allard, plant physiologist, who discovered the possibility of ad- vancing or retarding the growth of plants by controlling the period of light each day," says the department's weekly paper. ' * Where the light period is shortened the plants reach maturity much sooner than where they are given the natural length of day. In the greenhouses on the department's ex- perimental farm at Arlington, Va., it has been found possible to bring poin- settias into full form as early as Au- gust by shortening the daily exposure to light. "In fact, department specialists are confident that there is' practically no limit to the extent to which the Garner- Allard discovery may be applied in the ordinary florists' establishments in bringing various flowers into bloom out- side of the customary season. Iris in December and chrysanthemums in the spring are among the accomplishments already attained, and it is the intention of these specialists to bring together a group of flowers, all of different natural seasons, into bloom at the same time. One value of the discovery lies in the fact that it can be applied with only simple and inexpensive additions to the facilities of any greenhouse." THESE HELP SOME. Publishers, like other people, have their off days, but sometimes on one of these a letter comes to help a little, like this: Wp ooiiUl not think of running a greenhouse without The Review.

DALL %Ytr772o ^"^MPyi COMPANY ISO N. Wabash Ave., CHICAGO 40 The Florists' Review Dbcdmber 16, 1920 However, the market cleans up in fair shape each day. There are not too many good flowers of any kind except, per- haps. Paper Whites. There are many low-grade mums, which are not so easy to sell at good prices as they were earlier in the season, partly because the shipping demand has disappeared. The principal supply is of roses, carnations not being abundant, and of miscella- neous items there are only moderate quantities. Christinas Prospects. This Chistmas is unlike any other Christmas, in several respects. In the matter of supply, it appears there will be more roses than anything else, a larger supply of pink roses than ever before and less of the other colors. There will be few Beauties and not many red; Columbia will be the pre- dominant variety, with Premier a poor second and Russell a bad third, in the matter of quantity, not quality. Car- nations will not be in large supply and the average quality has been better, particularly of reds. Corsage flowers will be scarce, the dark weather hav- ing caused a shower of sweet pea buds, while violets are in much reduced sup- ply this year. But there will be more mums than at any previous Christmas, large-flowered and pompons. What the demand will prove to be in the aggregate, no one can foretell, but it is apparent the city and the so-called country buyers are taking opposite courses. The out-of-town stores are placing orders freely, numerous orders and large orders, but tlie city stores are holding off; they indicate a disposition to speculate on the market of December 24. There are some remarkable reports as to the volume of out-of-town orders. Several houses already have booked their full supply of many items. In a general way, the out-of-town orders are largely for roses; they call for roses at from 25 cents to 35 cents, with a dis- position plainly apparent to order lightly or not at all on the grades priced at 40 cents and up. As the proportion of long roses in this year's supply is greater than heretofore, it looks as though the late buyers might find them- selves compelled to take that grade or go without. The necessarily liigli prices for cut flowers and the scarcity of blooming plants have resulted in a wonderful de- mand for ruscus, boxwood, statice, small baskets and all the means of fill- ing them attractively. Randall's Annual Auction. It has become the custom of the A. L. Randall Co., at the ajiproaeh of the holi- days, to hold an aiiction of merchan- dise in its supplies department. No- tices liave been sent to all the nearby iorists and good bargains have been jbtainable, with the result that the event this year, held December 10 and 11, held a crowd in the store for twelve hours each day. A great variety of merchandise was offered, baskets, rib- bons, furniture, phonogra])hs, growers' supplies and scores of other lines, and there was spirited bidding at all times, but it was noticeable that the luxury lines, like phonograplis, fancy lamps and porch furniture, aroused more interest and brought relatively better prices than the necessities, like garden hose and store supplies. The department heads, salesmen and oflBce assistants acted as auctioneers, sometimes as many For Christmsis We are offering a choice lot of stock and ask that orders be placed as early as possible.

Some of the most skillful growers are reported to have lost half their plants and others still more. Bouquet green is not a matter of much interest to florists any more, but it may be noted that bulk green is selling at 18 cents per pound at Chicago this week. Holly also is scarce. The demand, how- ever, is greatly reduced and $9 per case is about as much as can be obtained for jood average stock. Henry Kusik, the Kansas City wholc- jalcr, was here this week to look the market over. Joseph Foerster pointed to a large dis- ])lay of Romans, with the remark, ' ' How long since you saw the like of these!" No Romans were im])orted last year and only small quantities of bulbs came from France this season, so it is two years since the market has been well supplied with this chief competitor of lily of the valley. The Tonner pecan orchards yielded over 6,.")00 pounds of nuts this year, which were expressed to the store in Chicago. E. C. Pruner has completed his 1920 travels for Pochlmann Bros.

Hembreiker, of Hembreikar & Cole, Springfield, 111., has been suffering with rheumatism for the last three weeks and will not be able to attend the meet- ing of the executive committee of the St. Louis district branch of the Na- tional Flower Growers' Association. At the January meeting of the St. Louis Garden Club the matter of hold- ing a spring flower show will come up for discussion. If the show is decided upon, it will probably again be held in the show house at the Missouri Botanical Garden and will be free to the public. J. J. B. COLUMBUS, O. The Market. Ruscus is now available on tiie market in four colors, gold, silver, red and green. Holly wreaths and loose holly are also on the market, as well as box- wood. The demand is quite heavy. A few chrysanthemums still remain, but carnations, roses, narcissi, sweet peas, violets and stcvia are plentiful and in great demand. Plants include Jerusalem cherries, cyclamens, primroses, begonias and some excellent ferns. The demand for potted offerings is lieavy. Several flo- rists liave some fancy pots and bowls with narcissus bulbs planted in them in preparation for holiday sale. Various Notes.

Otto Ackerman, of the Biverside Floral Co., recently lost his mother. Coal is now arriving in Columbus, but the price has not fallen much. PHTLADELPHIA. The Market. There is no question that the cut flower market is dull — dull just at a time when it ought to be active. There are balls and parties and dinners and dances where flowers are used, only- there are not enough of these gay affairs to make much impression on the market. The market is now so big that it takes the interest of the great mass of the people to affect it. These entertain- ments do not interest the great mass of the people beyond reading about them in the society columns of the dailies. The market has been steadily declin- ing for two weeks. Nobody expects now that it will improve before Wednesday, December 22. Some idea of conditions can be gleaned from the fact that Paper Whites, the weakest item on the list, dropped from $6 to $8 to $3 to $4 in quantity. Chrysanthemums have outlasted their season. The city salesmen say it takes selling to move chrysanthemums now. They often have to link them to some- thing desirable or shade the price or put a few in each order to dispose of them. The choice has narrowed pretty much to Nonin, Scidewitz and some late pom- Vp^s. Yes, they probably will last un- til Christmas; the majority wish they would not. ^ There are not nearly so many carna- tions as it was thought there would be by this time. Perhaps this is why the good blooms have held their place so well. Laddie is now plentiful enough to talk about. It is in first place, with Mrs. C. W. Ward and Pink Delight close behind. The well grown pinks and whites come next, with short-stemmed and poor flowers in the rear. Roses are the main crop today and they are likely to remain so for at least a month. Taking it all through, they have held well; only here and there whisperings are heard of cheap sales. Generally such sales are not worth more than they realize. The bulk of the rose crop has not come. The remaining flowers on the list are obtainable in moderate numbers. Christmas greens are exceedingly alive. * ■' Christmas Prospects. The dark weather of the past month has cut down the supply. The signs of overproduction this Christmas grow fainter and fainter. The feeling is gen- eral that there will be a good supply of cut flowers at fair prices. There is lit- tle likelihood of a surplus. Christmas Plants. The growers who make a specialty of Christmas plants have received a large number of orders. A good Christmas is assured. Robert A. Craig and Cornelius A'ander Breggan are justly proud of the stock of the Robert Craig Co. The cyclamens are wonderful; they resemble azaleas at Easter. The basket crotons prove that a tall plant can be perfectly grown in a small pot. In begonias, Melior and Mrs. For Christmas and New Year's we strongly recommend the purchase of Roses. Considering the quality of the Roses that we have at the present time, they show better value than any other flower. Beauties of a quality that will please the most particular buyer. Russell and Columbia, from shorts up to 36-inch stem flow- ers. More Columbia than Russell; a good supply of both varieties. Premier, Shawyer, Ophelia, Sunburst, Wards, Double White and Pink KiUamey, Richmond and Cecile Brunner. There will be no shortage of good Roses with us and if your present source of supply is not reliable send your order here. For flowers of really good quality we do not think that you will find a better supply in the Philadelphia market. In addition to this, we offer you the kind of Service that has made a standard for itself and which we are always still trying to improve upon iu every possible manner. THE LEO NIESSEN CO.

BOXWOOD LYCOrODlUN BRONZE GALAX and Greens of all kinds Perhaps it was the Philadelphia subway that was meant after all, for out on the broad highroad right in front was a sign that read "To Atlantic City," and At- lantic City was over ninety miles away. Mr. Harvey, Sr., solved this question by leading the way to the end of the greenhouse, down a flight of steps, through a tunnel, up another flight of steps into another large greenhouse! The problem had been how to connect two ranges without cutting off the main driveway that ran between them and without exposing the night fireman or his less important employees to the weather. The subway is the solution. It is the work of Evans Harvey. It is made of reinforced concrete and is ex- tremely well done. American Legion. Edward Towill's new cerise pink rose, American Legion, is the livest thing in the florists' world today. It is said to have brought E. Gurney Hill from Rich- mond. It received a visit from Charles H. Totty, who was here last week, and now no less important a personage than Adolph Poehlmann has come on, it is said, expressly to see the Towill seed- ling.

A resolution was introduced, which will be voted on at the January meeting, dis- banding this club and uniting with the state association. This seemed to meet favor with a large number of the mem- bers. The effect would be to make one large club with much more i)uwer than two smaller ones. The fifty-fourth annual meeting of the Minnesota State Horticultural Socictv was held at the store of the L. S. Donald- son Co.. Minneapolis, December 7 to 10. A small fruit and vegetalflc show and an excellent program were tlie features of the meeting. Retween l.'iO and 300 were in regular attendance. The officers for the coining year were elected as fol- lows: President, C. F. Smith, Minne- apolis; secretarv, R. S. Mackintosh. St. Paul. F. C. Schletz, St. Paul, and D. C. Webster, La Crescent, were elected mem- bers of the executive committee. The Minnesota State Horticultural Society is one of the largest in the country and numbers nearly 4,000 members. The evening of December 7 about 100 members of the Northwestern Peony and Iris Society listened to an excellent program. The election of officers was held and J. C. Stryker, of St. Paul, was reelected president; W. F. Christman, of Minneapolis, was elected secretary, and directors were elected as follows: Mrs. H. B. Tillotson, Minneapolis: John H.

' ' Tacoma, Wash.— Fred Sadd, of 947 North Adler street, is starting to build a greenhouse, which will comprise about 7,000 square feet of glass when com- pleted. LOS ANGELES, OAL. The Market. The feature of the market is a feeling of optimism among the retailers, several of the principal florists of the city stat- ing that their business is away above that of any previous year, including "the" year of 1918. Certainly they have plenty of stock to work with, for the open weather has kept everything growing and such things as sweet peas, zinnias and annuals generally are as fine as in early fall. Although all the rose growers say they will have a good Christmas crop, the first week in De- cember found good roses a little on the scarce side. Other stock, however, is plentiful. Various Notes. At the store of the California Floral Co. some excellent sweet peas were noted last week. The stock had the long stems and well set up flowers associated with the indoor-grown blooms, but V. Swenson says they are outdoor-grown. Large quantities of ruscus are being moved. Tom Wright, of Wright's Flower Shop, reports the busiest November he has ever had, which is saying a good deal. A fine stock of roses was noted at the store of the E. C. Amling Co., as well as some good valley grown at this firm's greenhouses, at Ocean Park Heights. Large quantities of heather, poinsettias and other cut stock are being shipped, as well as plant stock for the holidays. The store of W. Armacost & Co. is a busy place and Mr. Williamson reports plant trade especially brisk. A good stock of baskets and supplies is shown at this store. S. Murata & Co. report that the whole staff is kept busy all the time and that the orders already in for Christmas show that the holiday will be busier than usual. Eoy F. Wilcox reports a large cut of roses from his Montebello establishment. After a long period of negotiation, the Eedondo Floral Co. has succeeded in obtaining a five years' extension of its lease on the West Seventh street prop- erty. A. Knapp, in giving the news, was quite elated. It would have been almost impossible to obtain as good a location as the present one. The store has been remodeled and a separate department allotted to telegraph orders. Mr. Knapp has again been on the sick list, but was back at the store last week and feeling better. H. R. R. SAN FRANCISCO, CAL. The Market. Heavy rains have done such damage to the remainder of the chrysanthemum crop that it is not of much value for shipping purposes. Many mums are still to be seen in local stores, but they are of inferior quality. The market cleaned up regularly last week. Al- though the mums, for the most part, do not stand shipping, they are in demand locally on account of the shortage of good stock. Roses are scarce, owing to the fact that the growers have been cropping for Christmas. Since there is a lull in the local demand, however, caused by the nearness of the holiday, the shortage is by no means acute. Every day there seems to be just enough to go around and no more. Gardenias, orchids and valley clean up nicely. Alternate spells of heavy rains and clear, sunny days have caused the ber- ries to swell up nicely and become large and red. A number of wholesalers are filling large shipping orders for Califor- nia red berries, wild ferns, evergreens and boughs of pepper trees full of red berries and green leaves. The evergreen forests of central and northern Califor- nia are prodigal of winter leaves and berries, and quantities of this stock are now coming into the market, both for CHRISTMAS PRICE LIST CUT FLOWERS Effective December 19, 1920.

The Retail Florists' Association of San Francisco seems to be getting its money's worth for the $2,000 which it set aside for local advertising purposes, to be expended before the end of the year. The public is showing sympathy with the coming Sunday closing, which begins January 9, 1921. Cards announc- ing it are being given out by the flo- rists' stores. The artistic half-page ad- vertisements in the Sunday newspapers are bringing results in various ways. For instance, the latest issue of the weekly published by the San Francisco Advertising Club contains the follow- ing: " 'S.iy It with Flowers' is not only one of the most beautiful, but ef- fective and original campaigns ever put over in Snn Francisco. The florists have surely graduated from the ranks of the ethical and are putting over a campaign that has started the city to talk. Congratulations, Mr. Florist; 'Say It with Flowers' to others, that they have the power and value of adver- tising. If your beginning is a forecast of your future, others will have to step lively to keep the pace. Ad. Clubbers, isn't that a dandy slogan — 'Say It with Flowers'?" Many local florists were busy with orders for funeral pieces for the three police officers slain in a recent battle with gangsters at Santa Rosa. Sheriff James Petray, of Sonoma county, was remembered with flowers by his many friends, some of them San Franciscans. Miles Jackson and Lester Dorman, San Francisco officers, lay in state Decem- ber 8, at the city hall. Among the Xmas Specials POINSETTIAS, VIOLETS, SPENCER SWEET PEAS. RED RUSCUS FOR BASKET WORK.

Julius Eppstein ia finding decorations for luncheons and dinners much in de- mand at the St. Francis hotel. Owing to the seriousness of the help question on the Pacific coast, many hostesses en- tertain at hotels and restaurants. The MacRorie-McLaren Co. has a large stock of potted plants at its nurs- eries. Manager Louis J. Capurro has arranged for a special holiday display. The Thomas Floral Co. is anticipating a large holiday season, especially in potted plants. The new branch of this firm, the Conservatory, at 901 Larkin street, is now under the management of F. Shibeley, who has been in the flo- rists' business here for thirty years. Mr. Thomas states that his manager's popu- larity is resulting in excellent business for the Conservatory. Eosaia Bros, are experiencing a brisk demand for their violets and roses. They find their new San Francisco quarters, at O'Farrell & Jones streets, quite con- venient for business. At a recent society luncheon, admira- tion was expressed for a color combina- tion of fruit, vegetables and flowers designed at Albert O. Stein's estab- lishment. In large brass opium bowls, heather, yellow baby mums and Irish Elegance roses were combined with egg- plant, green and red peppers, persim- mons, crooked-necked squash and striped squash in green and yellows and pome- granates, the whole having a sky effect given by turquoise blue rilibon. Mrs. R. E. Darbee says that eastern florists are beginning to realize the decorative properties of woodwardias, from which a beautiful tree fern can easily bo built by using the long, single leaves, which ship easily.

Sweet peas are in ample supply and are selling fairly readily. Ophelia and Columbia have been the featured roses of late, with Premier and Frances Brunner also common enough to care for all needs. California violets are becoming common and prices are down. Russell and Ward are being shown by a few growers, and there will be a heavy crop later. The supply of lily of the valley is light.

One of the first industries to feel the readjustment depression, the seed trade, is likely to be one of the first to pick up again. L. W.

Page, former president of the American Seed Trade Association, died at his homo at Greene, N. Y., De- ceiAber 9. A further account of his death a[)pcars in the obituary column. William C. Halbert, of the Chas. H. Lilly Co., Seattle, Wash., was a member of the trade relations committee from the Chamber of Commerce of that city which made a recent trip into southwest- ern Washington. At the recent meeting of the execu- tive committee of the American Seed Trade Association it was decided to hold the next convention at St. Louis, Wednes- day, Thursday and Friday, June 22 to 24, 1921. The selection of hotel head- quarters has been left to a committee on arrangements headed by Clifford Cor- nell. Those in attendance were Presi- dent H. G. Hastings, Secretary C. E. Ken- del, Kirby P. White, C. C. Massie and Leonard IL Vaughan. The Department of Agriculture, fol- lowing its former communications and policies in the fertilizer trade, sent Satur- day, December 11, a bulletin in regard to present conditions in the market, with particular reference to prices of mixed fertilizers, to the manufacturers of these products. The statement, after discussing market conditions at some length, gave a thinly veiled threat of action in the federal courts unless prices to the con- 8umers for the spring of 1921 are imme- diately reduced.

It is a common practice to treat with an antiseptic solution, such as copper sulphate or formalin, the seeds of cereals and other plants, the seed coats of which are suspected or known to be infected with the spores of pathogenic organisms. Unfortunately, the usual method of treatment generally leads to a decrease in the germinating capacity of the seed, and also to irregularity of germina- tion. H. Braun, of the laboratory of plant pathology of the United States Department of Agriculture, has intro- duced an improvement which it is claimed increases the efiBcacy of the method and produces no ill effects on the germination of the seed.

It is suggested that the method owes its efBcacy to the fact that since the preliminary soaking results in the taking up of a large amount of water by the seed, subsequent steeping in the antiseptic leads to a smaller quan- tity of the poison passing the seed coat. It is further suggested that the prelim- inary soaking encourages the micro- organisms to begin to germinate, so that they are in a highly susceptible state when the time comes for applying the antiseptic.

The increase of home building, looked for with descending prices of materials, will add to the demand for ornamentals. Middle-west nurserymen held a 2-day meeting at Minneapolis, December 6 and 7. Nearly every nursery in that section was represented. California's ability to produce plants formerly imported is dwelt upon by Roy F. Wilcox, of Montebello, Cal., on another page of this issue, headed "Growing Our Own. ' ' The DeGalvez Nursery Co., Pine Har- bor, Va., has been granted a charter with a capital of $50,000. Incorporators are C. H. Goodnow, A. H. McCord and Charles Krutchoff. Walter Sanders, eldest son of the head of the Sanders Nursery Co., St. Louis, Mo., C. C. Sanders, is now a mem- ber of the firm and has moved with his family from St. James, Mo., to St. Louis. J. A. Taylor, who twenty years ago was in the fruit and nursery business at Wynne Wood, Okla., expects to reenter the trade in a small way at Memphis, Tenn. He is planning to erect a 50-foot greenhouse. Mr. Taylor will grow chiefly peonies. Fertilizer experiments conducted dur- ing the period of 1912 to 1919, inclusive, with apples, pears, cherries, grapes and apple nursery stock are described in bul- letin No. 477 of the New York Agricul- tural Experiment Station, at Geneva. No definite results have been obtained and the work is to be continued. Those inter- ested in the progress of the experiments may obtain the bulletin free of charge upon request. The Northwestern Peony and Iris So- ciety held its annual meeting December 7, at Minneapolis. About 100 were pres- ent. The officers elected were: President, J. E.

Amy and LeRoy Cady, University Farm, St. PauL It ia proposed to hold several shows next year. At the convention of the California Association of Nurserymen it was re- ported that the nurserymen of the state had already sold seventy-five per cent of their stock for next spring's planting. CAUFOBNIA'S BIO BEBBY FABM. 100 Acres Near WatsonviUe. The H. A. Hyde Co., at Watsonville, Cal., is widely known among florists, chiefly through its bulb productions. To nurserymen its output of trees and berry plants makes this firm one of note. Its 100 acres of strawberry plants, which was the subject of a page article in the Pacific Rural Press for October 23, is interesting to those in the trade who handle that line. One thousand tons of strawberries for the season of 1921 is the estimate placed on the output from the patch of the H. A. Hyde Co., known as the Oak Grove Berry Farm, located six miles east of Salinas. It is the largest strawberry patch west of the Missis- sippi river, and the third -largest in the world, the largest being in Vir- ginia and the second in North Caro- lina.

A. Hyde, president of the company, staked his reputation and his capital on a "try out." For years Mr. Hyde has made a specialty of the culture of strawberries and bush fruits. Associated with Mr. Hyde is 0. 0. Eaton, one of the pioneer berry growers of the Pajaro district. System is to be observed at every turn of the road. The entire planting has been subdivided into plots, which are sublet to groups of con- tractors who are responsible for the care, cultivation, irrigation and picking. Varieties Carefully Considered. Several varieties constitute the plant- ings, including most of the standard varieties — Banner, New Oregon, Mar- shall, Nick Ohmer, Klondyke, the old stand-by, Malinda, a small planting of the almost obsolete Brandywine and the new million-dollar berry.

The bush berries consist of Phenomenal, New Cory's Thornless, Dewberry, Him- alayas and Logan. The. Phenomenal has been considered by many as practically identical with the Logan. The Cory Thornless, aside from its easy handling, is a berry of fine flavor. Principal Plantings. Forty-five per cent of the plantings consist of the Banner variety. Nick Ohmer, originally an eastern berry, has become popular since its introduction. About twenty-five per cent of the plant- ings of the Oak Grove Farm are of this variety. About ten per cent of the farm is given over to New Oregon. Marshalls take up about ten per cent of the plantings on the Oak Grove Farm. Klondykes have been planted with an eye for the early market, this variety bearing heavily several weeks before the Banner and throwing a large crop of fine berries at a time when prices are attractively high. The old Brandy- wine has almost passed out of the com- mercial plantings in that district, but the renewed strain which has been given a chance seems to be showing up re- markably well. One of the most interesting sights in the whole field is the planting of Malindas. On the Eaton ranch at Wat- sonville, it made what is probably the world's record for continuous bearing, shipments being made for fourteen con- secutive months from one field. From constant replanting of California-grown stock this strain has become devitalized and run down. Eight years ago Mr. Hyde took these to Oregon and he is bring- ing back at the present time a stronger strain than he has ever had before. One bed of Malindas planted from the im- proved strain is 100 per cent perfect, every plant strong, clean, healthy and vigorous. Tlie other bed, planted from California-grown stock, is spotted, over forty per cent of the {)lants dead; the balance are irregular as to size, weak and poor. If it had been planned as a demonstration plot it could not have shown better the value of careful con- tinuous effort in the building up and maintaining of strains. PROPAGATING ROSA HUGONIS. How can Rosa Hugonis be propagated! Half-ripened green-wood cuttings taken in July and August do not root for me. E. C. M.— N. J. Taking half-ripened wood in July is one method, but far the best way to get up a good stock is from seed, which should be stratified and sown in flats in early spring. C. W.

Business continues fair, with all the florists preparing their plans for Christ- mas trade. There appears to be plenty of stock in sight and the general belief is that there will be a great deal of business done during the week before Christmas. In fact, orders are being booked now for Christmas delivery. Prices, both wholesale and retail, will be about the same as last year. Vaxious Notes. The feature of the week was the an- nual Christmas trade show of Carl Grobba, at Mimico, Ont. He enter- tained the trade December 7 and 8. While the greenhouses were being in- spected, visitors were entertained by vocal and instrumental music. Refresh- ments were served at the end of the afternoon. Included in the display were beautiful specimens of cyclamens, dra- caenas, poinsettias, begonias, crotons, pandanus, rubber trees, ferns and vari- ous other seasonable plants and greens. In addition, there were blooms for Christmas cutting in quantity. The steady stream of visitors expressed de- light with the whole show. Foundations are in for several extensions to the Grobba greenhouses. .T. J. H. RICHMOND, VA. John L. Ratcliffe entertained 550 orphan children at the Jefferson hotel Saturday afternoon, December 11. The dinner, which was an event in the his- tory of Richmond, was a Christmas fete given in honor of Mrs. Buford. The chil- dren were gathered from the various charitable organizations of the city. Mr. Ratcliffe, who was indefatigable in his efforts to entertain his young guests, was assisted by a group of ladies. There was music, singing by the children and a real good time. The affair was a tremendous success. Phil. Helena, Mont. — (liristmas greetings from tlu' State Nursery & Seed Co. are conveyed in a neat 12-page leaflet.

The market took a jump the closing days of last week, sending the prices on staple stock up. While the demand is now hardly normal, still there is a slight shortage. This is due to many of the growers not running their houses this winter, because of the high price of and difficulty of securing coal and also the damage that was suffered by a number of the growers in the big hail storm in September. Carnations are bringing $8 to $10 per hundred wholesale; roses $8 to $18; violets, only passably good, $1 and $2; callas $1.50 and $2 per dozen. Christmas greens are moving actively. There is also an unusual quantity of artificial Christmas goods being made up and these are finding a ready call. Various Notes. Lawrence Hay has been appointed keeper of the old cemetery by the East Providence town council. Joseph Orleff is now managing the cut flower department at S. Kresge's, 191 Westminster street. Walter V. O'Connor. 195 Mineral Spring avenue, Pawtucket, E. I., is handling a large line of Christmas wreaths and baskets. W. H. M. A meeting of the Rhode Island Horti- cultural Society was held in the Public library, December 16, when J. K. M. L. Farquhar, of Boston, Mass., spoke on a recent trip through Europe. A short business meeting preceded the lecture. NEWARK, N. J. The Market. Newark florists have completed prep- arations for Christmas trade, which they expect to be quite satisfactory. Holly and mistletoe wreaths and other Christmas specialties have been made in good quantity. They are just begin- ning to receive their poinsettias, cycla- mens and other holiday plants. Cut flowers will be expensive this year and for that reason many florists are laying in a larger supply of plants than for- merly, since the latter give X'eople more value for their money. Various Notes. Connolly & Plunkett, 149 Bloomfield avenue, report business for the holidays is opening up well. McLaughlin & Murphy, 181 Clinton avenue, report good business, but state that most of their work has been for funerals. R. B. M. CHAS. D. BALL GROWER OF PALMS, ETC.

With the coining of the Christmas rush and everybody pliiciiijr orilcrs early, this market showed a slight lull last week. Speculation runs high as to whether trade will be good or bad, but the general impression is that it will be about the same as other years. Roses, including Columbia, Premier and Butter- fly, are arriving in good condition. Mums have i)assed their zenith and only the late varieties are available. Carnations are going fairly well, bringing $fi to $8 per hundred. Snap- dragons are improving as the season goes on and are moving well. Narcissi, Paper White and yellow, are arriving in more abundance, which brings the ])rice of Paper White down to $.5 per hundred and yellow to $6 to $8. Stevia is arriv- ing in larger quantities and selling only fairly well. Some good winter berries are avail- able at a reasonable figure. Some of the first Scotch heather from the coast has arrived and is selling well. Various Notes. C. E. Critchell had a good week in Christmas ribbons and chiffons, augur- ing excellent holiday trade. The William Murphy Co. is receiving some extra fancy White Mistletoe mums from Frank Schneider, of Price Hill, O., and some good Ophelia and Columbia roses from A. Rasmussen, of New .\1- bany, Ind. William IT. Gear, of Vine street, was busy with funeral work last week. H. W. Sheppard has had a large num- ber of telegraph orders recently. P. J. Olingor is cutting some good pompons from his greenhouses at New- castle, Ind. Visitors last week included: Harry Smith, formerly with F. H.

Cook, president of the Cleveland Florists' Club, called the gathering to order and made a stirring address, in which he pre- dicted real action by everyone in Cleve- land and vicinity interested in floricul- ture in making the show the finest ever held.

It was neces- sary, he said, that the different horticul- tural bodies should know what was ex- pected of them, and that it be explained to them how they could best cooperate in the work of the show. Afterwards, Chairman Asmus was called upon to pre- side. Mr. Asmus described the work of the S. A. F. in the promotion of national flower shows and the reasons which prompted the society to arrange these big exhibitions in different parts of the 102 The Rorists^ Review December 16, 1920 Th« noiiati wboae cards appear on the pases oarrytnc this head, are prepared to fill orders >.«• from other florists for local deUvery on the usual basis.

Mr. Roland addressed the meeting at some length. He jiredioted that the coming sliow would demonstrate what might be termed the last word in hor- ticulture. It was not the purpose to make any money out of the exliihition, but simply to provide an exposition that would be cilucational in its every fea- ture and promote and increase the love for flowers among the jieople of the country. He spoke of the great in- fluence exerted by flower shows in the east, particularly of the good work ac- complished in this direction by the Massachusetts Horticultural Society. This society, which possessed perhaps the finest horticultural library in the country, had arranged to give nine ex- hibitions during the coming year. He was pleased to mention this particular society, because he had been one of its trustees for twenty years. He pointed out that all the committee sought was the active cooperation of all interests, and it was their hope that everyone con- nected would consider it an obligation to help toward the success of the com- ing show. Should any money profit re- sult, he said, it would be placed in a fund to be used for similar purposes. Mr. Welch spoke of past national flower shows, and presented figures cov- ering the attendance at them in differ- ent cities. New York's Success. Mr. Duckham detailed mainly the suc- cess of the now annual New York flower show. He went into history some- what and showed how flower shows in New York had been considered no longer possible until the S. A. F., almost against the wishes of the best interests.

WE ARE THE LARGEST GROWERS IN THIS CITY. decided to hold a national flower show there in 1913, with the result that not only was it a great success in every way, but it paved the way for an annual exhibition on the same lines, each of which showed continuous success. It was probable that a similar condition could be created in Cleveland, and therefore all should cooperate in the effort to accomplish a success with the 1922 show. Mr. Pierson spoke of the American Eose Society, with its membership of 3,500, mostly amateurs. He outlined the good work of this organization and ex- pressed the hope that it would not be long before its slogan, "A rose for every home, a bush for every garden," would be verified. He also paid grace- ful tribute to the American Carnation Society and other similar organizations, whose cooperation was expected to help materially to the success of the Cleve- land show. J. F. Ammann, Edwardsville, 111., made an eloquent address on "The In- fluence of Flowers in Home Life." He dwelt at length upon various phases of the attraction of flowers in everyday life, and their influence for good. He bespoke urgent cooperation on the part of all interested and declared that the best efforts of all would be required in such a huge undertaking. Local Organization. At this point Mr. Asmus explained at some length the necessity for the or- ganization of local committees and in- stanced the excellent work of the local bodies during the preparation for the Philadelphia national flower show, when all plans were carried out without a hitch of any kind. Following along the same lines, a local ofBce would, he said, be established in Cleveland, in charge of a local secretary, and this office would be headquarters of the local com- mittees until the close of the show. A vice-chairman of the national flower show committee, in the past a resident member of the committee, would preside at all general meetings when the chair- man could not be present. Cleveland would be fortunate, he said, in having available the experiences of several who had been instrumental in accomplishing the success of previous shows. Mr. Knoble then took the chair and dealt with the matter of finances, which evoked much questioning, particularly by Mr. Baldwdn, of the Ohio Horticul- tural Society, all the questions being readily answered by Mr. Asmus, who, in the main, explained why it was neces- sary for the work of the show to be DECEMBEE 16, 1920 The Florists' Review ZJ'^^ florist* whoM esrds appattr on the paces emrryliiK this head, are prepaid to flU orders ""^ from other llortste lor local delivery on the nsual basis.

It was pointed out that these members arranged for tlie fmancin}^ and all costs of installation of the exhibition. It was explained that the chairmen of the local committees and the chairmen of the amateur bodies, such as garden clubs, would compose the local executive com- mittee having full charge of the work. Support Promised. Mrs. Inpalls in a brief address as- sured the committee of the support of the garden clubs, and Mrs. Hills volun- teered the support individually of the Lakewood Garden Club. Other repre- sentatives of clubs also promised sup- port. In reply to a question by Mr. Bald- win, Chairman Asiiius said that the local executive committee would be the re- sponsible body in all arrangements, subservient, of course, to the national flower show committee. Mr. Rrydcn, of the Cleveland Horti- fultural Society, promised the hearty iui>port of his organization, and Mr. Eastman, rejiresenting the promoters of school garden work in Cleveland, said that the school children would like to take jinrt in the show; in fact, were ])reparing for exhibits. Mr. Asmiis asked Mr. Eastman to notify the com- mittee how much sjiaco could be used for the school children's plans and in what way tlioir hclj) was to be given, as it was possible that an appropriation could be made to cover their competi- tion. The committee expressed much pleasure at the ])rospect of cooperation by the school children. Adjournment was here taken until 8 p. m. Ttdrd Session.

The speaker was subjected to a volley of qucsticms, all of which he answered in detail. Mr. Tracndly spoke of various details which had helped in the success of New York 's big shows, and Mr. Brown, of the J. M.

Committee Meeting at New York. A meeting of the committee on turiff and legislation was held at the admin- istration offices of the Society of Amer- ican Florists, 4.3 West Eighteenth street, New York, Tuesday, December 7, at 10:30 a. m., at which were present: Chairman Wm. F. Oude, Washington, D. C; James McHutchison, New York; F. R. Pierson, Tarrytown, N. Y.; .1. 1). Kisele, Rivcrton, N. J.; J. K. M. L. Far- ((tiliar, Boston, Mass.; President A. li. Miller and Secretary John Young. The (piily absentees were L. II. Vaughan, Cliicago, 111., and Wm. II. Siebrecht, Jr., New York. The principal business of the meeting was discussion and action on the follow- ing letter to the secretary from the United States tariff commission: The tariff commission is preparing surveys of the nursery and greenhouse industries for the In- formntion of (>)nKre88 in connection with tariff leKisliitlon. Although much of the nursery and greenliouse stock formerly imported is now shut off by quarantines, considerable imports are still being made under license and inspection. We shonld like to have your opinion as to the tariff problem on these commodities, especially the advantages and dis.TdTantages of domestic and foreign producers, and of the usefulness of the present import duties in establisliing a domes- tic production of the Imported materials. We are Informed that the present tariff law, which is quoted below, contains a number of discrepancies. If this accords with your view, we should b<^ glad to have your suggestions as to changes. The tariff act of October 3, 1913, reads ns fol- lows: "Paragraph 218, Orchids, palms. Azalea in- dica and cut flowers, preserved or fresh, 25 per centum ad valorem; lily of the valley pips, tulips, narcissus, begonia and gloxinia bulbs, $1 i>er thousand; hyacinth bulbs, astilbe, dielytra and lily of the valley clumps. 12.50 per thousand; lily bulb* and calla bulba or corms, $5 per thousand; herbaceous peony. Iris Kipmpfori or germanica, canna, dahlia and amaryllis bulbs, $10 per thou- sand; all other bulbs, roots, root stocks, conns and tubers which are cultivated for their flowers or foliage, 50 cents per thousand: Provided, That all mature mother flowering bulbs imported ex- clusively for propagating purposes shall be ad- mitted free of duty. "Paragraph 211. Stocks, cuttings or seedlings of Hyrobalan plum, Mahaleb or Mazzard cherry, Manetti multiflora and briar rose, Rosa rugosa. "Su/Mi^^^ Members of the F. T. D. Members of the F. T.

As these items consist of growing crops, on which there really is no standard market price, an ad valorem duty is Impracticable, Inasmuch as it invites fraud by dishonest traders and causes much con fusion and annoyance to United States officials and importers. 2. The rates of duty are acceptable as they now stand. It would lM> a mistake to l>a8e new rates of duty on present consular values, inas- much as all items that are now being Imported were grown under war conditions and are being invoiced at inflated values. Standard values within two years will likely be about thirty per cent of present Invoice values.

Replying to your ipiestion, the effect of a high or low tariff on paragraphs 210 and 211 is neg- ligible, since practically nothing in these para- graphs is imported that can be produced com- mercially in the United .Slates. The importing risks and costs are so great on tlieso living prod- ucts that the only reason for importing them is that they cannot be commercially produced here. A fairly reasonable tariff on these ntw materials stimulates home production.

As we talked over old times and the progress t!ie busi- ness had made, he dropped the remark that nine out of every ten of his cus- tomers were the children or p;rand- children of people who had been custom- ers of his father back in the davs when PATERSON XT I PASSAIC JNew Jersey EDWARD SCEERY Member Florists' Telegraph Delivery Assn.

This florist has a splendid clientele and does a good business. In every large city there are one or two florists like the one mentioned above. I do not mean to say that these florists have not kept abreast of the times, for had they not they would not be enjoying the patronage of these chil- dren of their former customers. For, vFhile the grandmother would drive up in the family carryall and get perhaps a camellia for her hair to wear to some social function, the granddaughter of today will arrive in a Pierce- Arrow and get a corsage of orchids. But it is well to remember that no florist, no mat- ter how long his business has been estab- lished, can depend long or past per- formances. The New Generation. There is such a thing in these clays of modem business nietliods as being too exclusive. New firms are starting up every day. In most cases these are composed of young blood. Possibly the children of some competitor of early days, to whom no attention was paid, are now branching out; they have been going along, picking up all tlio knowl- edge of the business they possibly could. Perhaps they have had to go out into the world and make their own way. In HMiiiiiiinmitiMMiHwtn NEW TORK. N. T. QUALITY SERVICE L^AtJfMh^ti^ — 2366 Broadway.

When the old folks became tired, but wanted to see the little business they had striven so hard to establish continued, the son or daughter came home to take charge. And sooner or later this new power in an old and small business will make it- self felt. In every city in the country there are many people today who think that if their flowers do not come from a cer- tain store they are not what they should be. But the growth of the florists' in- dustry is affording great opj)ortunities for the newer and younger members. For instance, the telegrayih business is doing much today to give the beginner a chance to sliow his ability. Supposing there is a death in a ])romincnt family.

He goes the limit to have his offering the best he can arrange for the money he receives for it; not a detail is omitted to impress on that family his artistic ability or his service. The result is that the eyes of this family are opened to the fact that their florist is not the only one in their city who can arrange a fine funeral offering. Then did you ever stop to think that the mere fact that this telegraph order came from someone of their own station in life gives pres- tige in the eyes of the family to this hitherto unknown florist? Rapid Progress. I know personally a young florist who is rapidly making good, who uses every incoming telegraph order as an adver- tising medium. In these days we hear much about direct advertising. What could be more direct than to demon- strate to every new prospect that your telegraph orders show that you not only have the best flowers, but the abil- ity to arrange them properly? But I can hear some saying such things never happen. There was a time when the writer was of the same opinion, but recently his eyes have been opened. Let any florist go from store to store, week after week, and it will not be long before he will have greater respect for the ability of those with whom he is obliged to compete. In my rounds it has been my privilege to go into the store of some humble florist and see stock as good as, and in many cases bet- ter than, that in some of the better J. J.

His is often a business that has not been long established, but the proprietor is a live wire; he is work- ing day and night to get his business on a solid foundation, and let me say right here that you might as well try to turn back the waves of the Atlantic as to keep such a man from succeeding. You can rest assured that he is active in the local publicity campaign; he is ready to cooperate in any way for the betterment of the business as a whole. He is a man who will go out and rub shoulders with his fellow craftsmen; continually studying and learning. Mutual Advancement. Let any of the older florists in any city of the country, from New York to San Francisco, take time to go over the younger establishments of their city and see if the proprietors of many of them are not just such men as are spoken of in this article. In a sense, no man stands by himself in the florists' busi- ness; it is only a matter of time when the man who is progressive, the man who is willing to help his less fortunate brother in business, will be doing a flourishing business, while those who stand aloof and feel that the benefit of the industry as a whole is no concern of theirs will have perished from dry rot. These are days of keen competi- tion, and a slogan to adopt in your busi- ness that will pay just as great returns as "Say It with Flowers" is "Do it a little better than the other fellow."

Miss Hnyden, chairman of the local advertising committee of the Kansas City Florists' Club, called a meeting of the committee December 10 to decide on Christmas advertising. More than $1,000 is now available for this purpose and more money is coming in. It was de- cided to advertise in the four daily newspapers December 19 to 22. On ac- count of Christmas being a popular flower day and the prospects for busi- ness being so good, it was thought best to use only a portion of the fund now and leave the balance to be drawn on for future needs.

This was due to the reaction that invariably sets in after the Bachelors' Cotillion, which was held Monday evening, De- cember 6. It usually takes the society world about a week to recover from the big event. It was a good thing, how- ever, that the demand did fall off, for with a curtailed demand, supply and demand were about balanced. Roses, which were forced as much as possible for this event, were cut closely, so that it took a few days for them to recover. What blooms are coming to the market are of fine quality— good flowers, stiff stems and clean foliage. More shorts might be used, for the demand is for funeral work. The outlook for roses for Christmas is that there will be a good normal crop. Carnations, which were not used for Cleveland, O. 10515 Superior Ave. 8 STORES Penonal Attentloii.

Bachelors' Cotillion. The big social event of the season, when the florists' business, as well as the young ladies, nialces its bow to society, was held at the Lyric theater ^Monday evening, December (5. Never since this annual event was initiated was the immense hall more artistically decorated. George Black, of Black Bros., was the man who had this work in charge. Mr. Black has grown r.p with the Bachelors' Cotillion, for in the old days his father always had the decora- tions, and many a time George as a boy helped with the work. The galleries were screened off with latticework, cutwineil with southern smilax. On the stage^ where supi)er was served, was a scene from the jungle, large palms and ferns being used in pro- fusion. The lobby was treated much in the same way.

Then later, after it had been introduced, I saw it being effectively used not only to put the rose-bug out of busi- ness on roses, but to do the same when they had attacked rho- dodendron flowers in a prominent garden near Philadelphia.

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 amount 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. COAL PRODUCTION HIOH. Greenhouse men welcome the reports of the increase in coal supply and a consequent downward tendency in prices. Recovering from the Thanksgiving day depression, production of soft coal during the week of December 4 rose to a now maximum for the year, according to the United States geologi- cal survey. The total output, includ- ing lignite and coal coked, is estimated at 12,757,000 net tons. Not only was this the highest mark attained during the present season, but it has been surpassed only four times during the period over which reports of weekly production extend. The four exceptions were the weeks ending July 10 and 24 and September 25, 1918, and October 23, 1919. The record was made possible by the railroads, which fur- nished empty cars sufficient to load 232,340 cars of soft coal, an achievement the more creditable because Monday, November 29, the priority in the use of open top cars was withdrawn com- pletely. Production of bituminous coal during the first 287 working days of the last four years has been as follows in net tons: 1917, 516,172,000; 1918, 545,8.58,000; 1919, 425,291,000; 1920, 512,431,000.

" Whit* Coal " Black Coal m 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. Write today for facts and figures on what the More- head System will do in your plant. Morehead Manufacturing Company Dept. "M" Detroit, Mich., U. S.

The sketch shows three even-span houses with a length of fifty feet, and occupying a space sixty feet wide. If the houses are drawn to scale, we judge the widths to be approximately fifteen, twenty and twenty-five feet. The outer walls are seven feet eleven inches in height, but we cannot determine the amount of glass they contain, if any. Neither is the temperature desired in the houses stated, or any way of dis- tinguishing them. If an average tem2)crature of 60 de- grees will answer for the three houses, the boiler described above should be amply large. We should run a 3-inch flow ]jipe under eacli of the plates, or gutters, except on the outer wall of the narrow house, where a flow jiipe with a diameter of two and a half inches will .'inswer. Four 2-inch return pipes will answer for this wall, and seven may be used on the other outside wall. Twelve returns will be required on the posts between the 25-foot and 20-foot houses, and nine returns between the 20-foot and 15-foot houses. Tliese estimates are for a night temperature of 60 degrees when the mercury is 10 degrees below zero outside. If 50 degrees will answer in the houses, the number of the returns should be respectively three, five, nine and seven. The above estimates are for walls without glass below the level of the plates. When there is glass below the level of the pl.ntes, there should be an addition;il 2-inch return on the outer walls for every two feet of glass. To connect the flow pipes with the boiler, use two 3%-ineh leads. When the flow pipe for the first house has been taken off, the main leading to the other flow main may be reduced to three What Prominent Growers Think About the Standard Recording Thermometer Erie, Pa., Dec. 16, li»19, "Please send us another of those ther- mometer cJocks, just like the one you sent us about two weeks ago.

Potted plants, such as cyclamens, Cincinnati and Melior begonias, cherries and poin- settias, are in abundance and early or- ders point to larger plant orders this Christmas than ever before. Prices are just about the same as last year and the stock was never better. Mild weather for a month past has hurried the rose crop, and some of the stock will come a little early, but, never- theless, a larger cut than last year is looked for. Carnations are looking fine, and a big cut of these is expected if weather conditions are favorable. Paper Whites will be in large supply, but there is no doubt that they will clean up well. Sweet peas will be scarce and the price will be high. Business last week was fairly good, on account of several funeral orders. Mums are still arriving in small quantities, but the quality in most cases is poor. Various Notes. L. B. Westholder, of Evanston, Wyo., spent a few days at Salt Lake City last week, visiting the growers and placing orders for holiday trade. Mr. Paul, formerly of the City Floral Co., Idaho Falls, Ida., has accepted a position with Bailey & Sons, of this city.

The market was quite active last week, the wholesale houses cleaning up every day. There was a considerable shortage of carnations, lilies and roses. Eoses and carnations are up to the win- ter's standard of quality, but there are not sufficient to meet the demand, es- pecially of the better varieties. Some good stevia, calendulas and yel- low daisies are arriving. Orchids con- tinue to be scarce. Paper White narcissi are plentiful. Pussy willows are also an added feature of the market, and mistle- toe and winter berries have arrived. Boxwood, smilax and ground pine are the active greens at present, as all florists are preparing for the holiday rusli. Business in general has been re- ported good. Various Notes. Joseph Marks, of A. Henderson & Co., Chicago, was a visitor in Pittsburgh last week. Adolph Poehlmann, of Poehlmann Bros. Co., Chicago, was a visitor at the store of the Pittsburgh Cut Flower Co., at Bakerstown. An attractive display of artificial wreaths and Christmas materials is be- ing shown by A. Krongold in his new store, on Smithfield street, in the Oliver buihling. William T. Usinger has been added to the force of the McClements Co., for over the holiday season. The meeting of the Pittsburgh Flo- rists' and Gardeners' Club was held Tuesday evening, December 7, at the Carnegie library. H. J. H.

Look at some houses and see for yourself. Weak gables weaken the entire house. Because of their lack of rigidity they GIVE. Every give is a strain against the entire length of the entire house's frame. When a give stops, the frame generally goes back into place. This going back and coming back motion, slight as it may be in some cases, causes so much of the seemingly unexplainable loosen- ing of the glass. A rigid gable is absolutely necessary if you want a rigid house. Our house is rigid, be- cause our gable does its full part in preserv- ing its rigidity. It does it because it has an ample number of good, husky rafters, combined with plenty of angle iron purlins. These purlins are fastened to the rafters by double angle knees. These knees are on each side of the rafter, which means there are four knees in all. Four knees have eight bolts. A glance at the illustration' carries its own convincement. Our Handy Hand Book goes thoroughly into this question of gable construction, as it does into every other point of every other part of the construction. If you haven't one. send for one. You will find it a friend and guide. most valuable counselor, |or4& Btinihamlo. Builders of Greenhouses and Conservatories IRVINGTON NEW YORK PHILADELPHIA CHICAGO New York 42nd St. BIdg.

The llorists" tiadc ministers to the angel in man, not lo the animal. Florists' wares, therefore, are not fully api)reciatt'd unless attrac tively and persistently displ.ayed. An Incentive to Invention. (>nly ;i few llorists, jieihaps, may e\rr find it feasible to e.xhibit a goose flower in their wiiidows, in such manner .as is shown in the i llnsl r;i t ion on this pa^e. appro.acli A ristolochi.i Gigas, the Goose Plant, as a Window Attraction. Hut sLirh a, window display, e\cn in cases where it cannot be exactly imi- tated, may suggest the use of some other article or device that may be as striking as the goose flower. Not many windows may be copied precisely by florists in general, but all good windows atford helpful hints, or at least may stir flo- rists' thoughts and stimulate their in- \entive faculties. There is reason to believe that the goose flower now under consideration accomplished its purpose. As the illus- tration shows, the rara avis — rare bird -was .allowed plenty of space. No ordin;n\- item of stock was permuted to enough to it to detract I rom the startling ef- lect. Yet it may be taken for granted that otlier flowers, besides the bird-shaped one. ui're within easy rang< of the bystander's vi- ■~ion. I'erhaiis the ncws- pajior reporters were invited to call aii'l see the strange creature, and tell their readers about it.

' ■ V'( S| 1 admit I 'm a l'ri;ik," continued the i^dose flower, "'but I should not bo blamed for that, since my frt'akishness is an un- avoiflable inheritance. .Ml my an('t>stors were freaks .-iikI 1 belong to a celebrated family of freaks, the aristoloch- las. My reallv correct, (lignifle(| nanh, i'V the 12 The Florists^ Review Decbmber 23, 1920 way, is Aristolochia gigas, or Aristo- lochia grandiflora Sturtevantii. One of my sisters is Aristolochia Sipho, the Dutchman's pipe; perhaps you have seen her. Others of my sisters are: A. cymbifera, the boat-shaped one; A. ornithocephala, bird's head; A. tricau- data, three-tailed, and A. ridicula — you know what that means. Miss A. ridicula has two long lobes which are said to resemble a donkey's cars. Yes, we're a queer lot and I'm the queerest of all. Just an Overgrown Calyx. "As a flower," tJie goose went on, "I am badly defective as well as freak ish. I have no corolla, though the corolla, or system of petals, would usu- ally be considered the one absolutely essential part of a flower — almost the whole flower. In common, popular opinion, the corolla is the flower. But I am just an overgrown calyx, a long, huge, grotesquely twisted calyx, ending in a yard-long tail, by means of which I am now clinging to my support, as a monkey might suspend itself by its tail from the branch of a tree. How- ever, nature did not intend my tail for such a purpose; this use of it is the in- vention of the window decorator who placed me here. "But allow me, ladies and gentle- men," the goose flower pleaded, "to draw your attention to those other flowers. Look, for instance, at that pink rose. Note its exquisite fineness of texture, its grace of form, its rich- ness and delicacy of color. Is there anything else, aside from flowers, that is so nearly a perfect embodiment of beauty? And its fragrance — "My fragrance! My fragrance, did you say? Did you really mean to in- sult me? My fragrance, you know — or perhaps you don 't know — is called, at the best, an odor. That's what polite people call it, but other people give it a much worse name. The Ctoose Flower Wins. "Say, you good-looking, well-dressed man, are you going away without buy- ing any flowers? Do you mean to ad- mit that you were attracted, fascinated, almost captivated, by a misshapen od- dity like me, but have no interest in those other flowers, those most exquisite specimens of nature's handiwork? Ah! You have changed your mind and are coming into the store. I thought you looked like the right sort. And there are two or three other people following your example." Thus the goose flower sold other flowers all day, and several successive days, before being replaced by another window display. If any florist wishes to grow a few vines of the goose flower, he should plant them in a bed of good, rich loam, in a warm house where they can be con- veniently trained up pillars, rafters or a trellis. As a rule, they do not bloom until they have grown to a consider- able height. They are easily propagated by means of cuttings taken from well matured wood in early spring. at Washington in 1905 and having served as treasurer from 1910 until his demise. Through his wholesale business at Buf- falo and other trade connections in that section he became still better known locally and was universally respected and liked. So his trade friends were shocked at his death at the early age of 46, when he succumbed as a result of heart failure while attending the Demo- cratic national convention at St. Louis in 1916. So high was their regard for him that they wished to erect a suitable memorial, which took the form of the stone shown in the illustration on this page. The inscription reads, "William V. Kasting, 1870-1916," and below, "Laura A., His Wife, 1879-1912." On the bronze tablet affixed below is the following testimonial: "Erected by the Florists of America as a mark of our love and esteem and that his noble char- acter may be held in perpetual honor. ' ' KASTINO'S MONUMENT. By most members of the trade the name of William F. Kasting is not only well remembered, but remembered with esteem and affection. As an officer of the Society of American Florists ho had, at the time of his death, in 1916, served more years than any other person up to that time, having been elected president BELGIAN GLASS MABEET. Conditions of the glass market in Bel- gium, which occasionally contributed to American greenhouse construction be- Florists' Monument to Wm. F. Kasting. fore the war, are described a* follows by Consul General Henry H. Morgan, at Brussels: "In 1913 Belgium exported 40,559,441 kilos of plate glass valued at 30,465,967 francs, and 205,561,684 kilos of ordinary window glass valued at 47,279,187 francs. Exports of manufactured glass products in 1919 amounted to 123,842,117 francs. In December, 1919, resumption had reached eighty-one per cent of pre-war activity, with fifty-nine glass-making establishments employing 22,785 men as compared with 28,149 before the war. "The cost of manufacture has greatly increased, being now about six times what it was in 1914. Prices of raw mate- rials have tripled and then quadrupled, while the price of labor has gone up 150 per cent or more. Lack of coal hin- dered output for a time, but there is now prospect of being able to light more furnaces. "The demand for plate and window glass has been extraordinary. While orders have been received from all over the world, France has taken a consider- able portion of the window glass for us' in the devastated regions, and th< United States has bought a large amoun of plate glass and sought more. Th< market for plate glass remains good but that for window glass has been af fected recently by the price-cutting' wave and notably by competition from glass factories in Japan." EXPBESS COMPANIES CAN JOIN. The interstate commerce commission December 20 in Washington granted an thority for permanent consolidation of the transportation business and proper- ties of the Adams, American, Wells- Fargo and Southern Express companies into the American Eailway Express Co. The commission said it was its belief that the public would best be served by one consolidated company, serving all lines, with equal rates. The permit was based on an applica- tion filed by the four express companies last March. The commission divided on the ques- tion. Commissioners McChord and Meyer presenting a minority report. The con- solidation, this dissenting report as- serted, "creates a monopoly" and "de- stroys every semblance of competition." COAL MABKET i&AKS. Price of Steam Ooal:Balved. The bottom dropped oh^oi the whole- sale market for steam coftl i^ the cen- tral west December 21,^^^nging about the most radical reducti^ recorded in years. In many ingtaniees the reduc- tions cut the price iahalf. The mild weather was given as the principal reason at a meeting of the Hlinois Coal Operators' Association in Chicago December 21. Other leading operators said that the reduction was caused by the shutting down of fac- tories all over the country. Bange of Prices. The poorest grade of steam coal has dropped from around $2 to 83 cents a ton within the last few days. - Better grades which have been selling for from $7 to $8 a ton are now begging for purchasers at from $3.50 to $4. Coal which sold for from $8 to $10 a few months ago can be had now for $3 a ton. ' ' There is a greater supply than a de- mand," said George W. Eeed, vice- president of the Peabody Coal Co. "In- dustries have shut down all over the country. They have no further use for fuel. Conditions are beginning to read- just themselves. I would say that the drop in the price of coal is simply an indication of business getting down to normal competitive prices. For Direct Purchases. "The high reconsigning and demur- rage charges have also helped to bring about a surplus supply. We wouldn't think of sending out a carload of coal unless it is purchased direct. Then there are those who have purchased the entire output of mines for the year. The longer they hold the more they lose and the slimmer are their chances for disposing of their goods at any price." Several operators declared that the coal was being piled up at the mines, where full production is in progress without a sign of purchasers. December 2?,, 1920 The Florists^ Review 13 RETAIL STORE MANAGEMENT WHAT THE LEADERS IN THE TRADE ARE DOING DELIVERING THE GOODS. Meeting the En Route Problems. It lias been noted tliat florists' motor eliicles are at once distinguishable rom the rest of the trucks on the roads. Vppearance to tlic man in the street has leen considered, so that the advertis- ing value alone is worth the price of 'he special painting, decorations, etc. In the larger cities the florists often •'Hiploy a characteristic color, as, for ■xaniple, one large New York firm uses liolet, another blue. It is of great value to have the delivery car so I>ainted, because it is in keeping with the tone of the business. It reflects the character of the goods carried. The problems of flower and plant de- livery are not the easiest to solve. The florist handles highly perishable goods; he must make quick deliveries; his plants come in all sizes and can not be packed in boxes so as to be easily loaded. Plants must be so transported that they will not be injured; hence a greater amount of care must be used by the driver and the truck body must be so designed as to avoid damage. Pot Holders. When the truck is being driven over a rough city street the body sways and bounces up and down, the tendency being for the plants in i>ots to be thrown against one another. This is obviously ruinous. One member of the trade uses a body in which there are three liorizontal tiers of shelves. All heavy j)lants in pots are placed on the floor of the body. In order tliat they may rest upright, he uses small wooden lioxes of standard sizes into which the pots can be fitted. These wooden boxes have a large bottom area, so that they ;ire not likely to tip over. Another florist has arranged one jtortion of the body floor exclusively for flowers in I)ots and has arranged clamps to Imhl the pots. These clamps are made espe eially for that ])urpose and gri]> the ])ot firmly in four ])Iaces. Another metlioil is to use parallel strips of wood across tlie body about four inches from the floor, .six or s<>ven sets of such parallel strijiH are used, e;u'li set being a little farther apart than the next, so that all sizes of pots can be acconimod;iteil. In order that all sizes of jilants can be taken care of, bodies should be so ar- ranged that one small portion near the front or rear occtipies the full height of the body. Where sliding shelves are used and are maile the full length of the body, the size of plants to l)e car- ried is restricted by the lieight between shelves. Keeping the Right Temperature. One of the diftii-ulties connected with the delivery of cut flowers is that of jirotecting them while in transit. Se \-er(' colli fur a short jwriod will ruin them. Kxtreiiie heat is bad. In cold weather it is necessary to keep out tiie cold, so that when flowers are kept in the wagon for hours they may be de- livered in a fresh condition. An ex- haust type heater installed in the body of the truck will not do, because gas leakage, however slight, damages the flowers and may i)erhaps kill them. One florist has arranged to utili/A' the heat in the driver's compartment. This usually is warm and when it is enclosed th(> heat is allowed to circulate tiiroiigh the l:>ody sullliciently to keeji the flowers at an even and jjrotecting temperature. If exhaust lit>at is to be used, the inside jiiping should be free from any coimum-- tion. One coil of ])ipe within the body nuiy be found suflicient, but the line should include a control of some sort. There should be a thernu)meter within sight of the driv<'r, so that he may kee]( the temjierature as near constant as possible. On Time and On Record. Flower .•ind ]>lant deliveries, unlike many others, must be m.ade often at a definite time. An order may be re- ceived to deliver a funeral jiiece at ex- actly a J), m., and nut befon'. Conse- • juently it becomes necessary to liavi' delivery wagons always in good condi- tion and to have drivers who c.'iii ap l)reciate the value of time. In order to kee]) ;in accurate record of the calls, deliveries, etc., the ]irinte(l forms of the florist should call for the following information: Time of recei[it of order and by whom received, name and address, (|Uanliiy and kind of llovvers or plants, time (d" departure of truck, time of delivery of flowers, time delivery was recjuesteil.

FALLON WINS WINDOW PRIZE. Decemlier - was an eventful day in the history of the .1. .1. Fallon Co. and, in fa-ct, the \\|](de cit\- of Durham, N. C. It was the opening ot' the White Way in that city and also the merchants' ^'hristmas openini;. The Durham Morning Herald offered prizes for the best w iuilow dis[)lays for the event. .\ handsome, silver loving cuj) was to be awarded the merchant having the most artistically quarters on Broad- way in New York city. A sign twenty- five feet long over the entrance read: "We 'Say It with Flowers.' Welcome to our additional floor." And they did "Say It with Flowers." Max Schling said it for tliem, anyway, with the ef- fect sliown in the illustration on the next page. The sign was 9x25 feet and the letters were made of single beech leaves. The flowers used were bronze chrysan- themums and Jap lanterns, or Physalis Franchetii. The flowers were replaced with fresh ones several times during the period of the official opening of the new quarters. How much publicity sucli a display gives the florists' trade may be imagined by the reader from the il- lustration. Such advertisements are florists' advertisements pure and simple, with somebody else paying the bills. Serves as Sermon Text. The slogan is so well known, indeed, that even clergymen make reference to it in order to attract attention to their subject. "Say It with Flowers — Not always," was the title of a sermon pub- lished in the Christian World, of Cleve- land, O., recently. The sermon, after referring to the fragrance of the mes- sage flowers bring to the sick room, con- tinued: "Some essential portions of the gospel cannot be 'Said with Flowers.' Other parts of the gospel cannot be said without flowers. A flowery preacher? Every preacher should be that at times. If he speaks truth truthfully, he will sometimes ' Say It with Flowers. ' ' ' So surely and thoroughly has our slogan become a part of language and life that by its use, constantly and in many places, other businesses and other ])rofessions are advertising for us. Verily, our national publicity campaign performed its task well in providing florists with this slogan. CLEVELAND, O. The Market. Market conditions last week were rather poor. Business has been drag- ging in al; lines, and the consensus is ' Say it with Flowers" Everybody loves bouquets — of flowers or kind words. A kind word bouquet sent to Knicker- bocker says that a patron riding down Fifth Avenue noticed Knick- erbocker Ice Wagons in front of three flow^er shops. The patron thinks Knickerbocker, in keeping flowers sweet and fresh, plays an important part in "Saying it with Flowers." To keep your flower "mesnage" long repeating its sweet story, put a piece of Knickerbocker Ice into the vase daily. Knickerbocker is absolutely pure — a fit associate for the flowers. Knickerbocker I c E Company Here's How the Iceman Helps Us. that business this year is too uncertain to put in heavy stocks. Retailers hesi- tate to buy this year because of the steady increase- in the number of unem- ployed, which directly affects the mar- ket for flowers. Because of this uncer- tainty, retailers are at a loss to know what to buy and in what quantities. It is generally believed that a last-minute rush will mark the closing of the Christ- mas day trade. Stock of all kinds, with the exception of roses and carnations, has been moving slowly. Reports from the retailers state that Christmas sup- plies are selling better than cut flowers at present. A shortage in variety, as well as in quantity, is the market report on staple lines. Various Notes. John Dunstan, of Niles, O., was a re- cent visitor in this city. The Riverside Florists Co., of West Park, has recently been incorporate : with a capital stock of $100,000 by Mr Rose Kirchiier, Miss Gollette Kirchne Frank Kirchner and M. Artfa. Mr. and Mrs. Stockhouse, of Minerv; O., left orders with several wholesalei for Christmas stock while on a recen visit in this city. J. R. Cowgill, of Canton, was a visito recently, as was H. A.

I'l-ansplaiit iiifjf one's stock of yiladioli III one part of the world to an entirely leront region, abandoninj^ various tliods of culture, peculiar to climate, atlier, soil and labor conditions of the Id country," and adapting oneself to \ ironnient altogether new, strange and ,en is a wonderful experience, unique • i interesting. This is the experienc(> 1^. Vos & Son, now at Mount Clemens, (li., coming from the Netherlands with collection of gladioli and settling in •MO United States. The reasons for this live are interestingly explained by Mr. i>s as follows: "Since gladioli are grown in almost . cry civilized country, one might think iiat these beautiful flowers flourish and in be grown in any climate and soil ith etjual or nearly equal results. Upon ij)erficial observation one might judge . : unwise for a grower of gladioli to go ■irough such expense and trouble as to ■ ime 4,(¥)0 miles or more from another iiuntry for the sole purpose of changing -oil and climate. We do not claim to be III absolute authority on the question at ■take, but have learned much by actual ■ \I)erienee in fifteen years of gladiolus ■; rowing. Wet Weather in Netherlands. "As the name implies, the Netherlands ire low; the French call our native coun- try 'Pays Bas, ' i. e., 'Low liands. ' llspecialiy where the Holland bulbs are ;rown is the surface of the fields below, i';ir below, sea level. Add to this the i;ict that the narrow strip of land ada]it- ihle for bulb culture lies about three ■I' lies from the seashore and one will '•adily understand that the water level lUst be high and the ground moist. The limate is not at all cheery, either. There ire many years that one has jiractically ' 0 summer in Holland. The air is moist nd foggy, anil anyone who has lieen in (olland and lived there for any length of ime knows the great number of rainy '.•lys each year. All growers of gladioli :ive learned how dctrimiMital to s[>eedy. '■althy growth is a continual overdose of Moisture. By it, the bulbs, great or mall, are checked in their growth and re more subject to disease than under ■ss moist weather conditions. How well I, we remember that when a summer was xceiitiiinally cold and rainy we would lid more bulbs diseasi^l with 'zwart ■d,' i. e., black rot. than usual! There ■ ere many varieties which tendi' no other caus(> of tlie^c inuibics tliiiii iic rain ;nid cold climate. "However, this is not the nnly reason "1- our saying farewell to our native "iintry and sailing for th(> United "•fates. The two years during which we ,rew our gladioli in Mictiigan made us ■ware of the many ads .intakes over our "rmer strite of existence and wnrk. r)tic great disadvantage in Holland is the scarcity of land, causing high rent. It is not at all uncommon for a grower to pay one florin, eijual to lit cents, rent for 114 sijuare feet of soil. When we arrived here and saw lows of glailioli lilanted three feet ajiart we raised our hands in amazement. 'Such wjiste of land!' we thought. In Ibdliiiid it is just the re\erse. .\ii open strip of land e(|ual to a row of gladioli is allowed between rows of bulbs three feet wide. All cultivating must there fore be done by hanil, crawling on hand and knees through a, narrow ]iatli a foot wide. The American method h;is three advantages o\'er the Holland way. I'"irst, it provides for easier and quicker cultivation, since it can be done by horse; secondly, it is therefore cheaper as far as labor exjienses are concerned. and, tliiidly, It ;:i\es the (ilants more soil and .•lir .•iioiiiid tliciii to .|r;iw those sub- stances I'roiii which they greatly need for s]ieed>' and \ i^orous growth. "'J'liose who lia\'<^ had some ex|ieiience with the growing of gladjidi know that one cannot grow them on ilie same piece of land year afti'r year. "Irowers that do so will find that their stock becomes fearfully niixcl, bcc.-nise many of the biilblets left in the ground cfune u]' subseipiently and are dug ujt with the true stock-. Ami'iica. with its ample re sources of land, solves this problem. One can abandon the land where one has grown gladioli for two years and start anew on virgin soil without great loss or expense, retaining tliiiv stock abso- lutely true to name. ''Then, too, liow great an advantage to gladiolus growers is the fine climate Gerrit Vos. . 18 The Florists^ Review Decembeb 23, 1920 and low water level such as we found in Michigan! In spring there is enough rain to keep the ground suitable for planting, giving the dry bulbs enough moisture to commence rooting. The beautiful summers provide ample time for weeding and cultivating, making the rows of dark green gladioli grow by the day, while in fall one does not have to dig the bulbs out of a muddy soil, as we had to do so often in Holland. "Summing up all the experience we gathered the last two years in growing gladioli in America and comparing it with the past, we are led to believe that we can grow our gladioli better and more economically in America than in Hol- land, with more ease and less expense." more sheep manure and horn shavings in it than usual. Could this be tl;^ cause? If so, would an application ot' lime water counteract the fertilizer .' If this was the work of thrips, woui I not the foliage also be affected? W. V. L.— Wis. ^L;ji&mjati^A;m>^^^ AT YEAR'S END The cause of the trouble with tli> cyclamens is thrips. These pests worl: down into the crown of the plants, criji pling the flowers before they have timi to expand. The best means of fightin- the pest is by regular sprayings of di luted nicotine extract two or thrc times every ten days. M. P. MIT.T.T.R MAKES ADIEU. Pleasant Year's Recollections. With my term as president of the so- ciety now at an end, I can look back to an oflSce which has afforded me both pleasure and pride. A close association with my brother officers throughout the year has revealed some earnest and thorough team-work, resulting in the great benefit of our society, and my hearty thanks are tendered to them for their cooperation and cheerful assist- ance throughout my administration. Particularly am I indebted to our secre- tary, whose cordial assistance has been at all times available and whose advice has tended to make my duties pleasant and my pathway smooth. To our executive board is due much credit for their zealous attention to the many details in the management of the society's affairs, the extent of which is only realized when one is called upon to preside over an annual meeting of their body, which calls for two days or more of incessant deliberation, I have been especially fortunate in having the advantage of a board whose personnel included some of the best brains in our membership. Thanks Rendered. I have greatly appreciated the as- sistance rendered by our state vice- presidents, who, it would seem to me, liave this year taken more than an ordi- nary interest in the society's work. It is my hope that a continuance of this in- terest will be manifest in the work of the appointees of my esteemed succes- sor in office. To the members of our standing com- mittees I extend my most sincere thanks for their services during the year, rendered so unselfishly and often at great sacrifice of time and frequently at much personal expense. The im- portance of the work of these commit- tees cannot, in my opinion, be overesti- mated. Lastly, my thanks are duo to those members who attended the Cleveland convention last August and helped to make the gathering the largest in the history of the society, of which record I am, naturally, more than proud. It is my earnest hope that the so- ciety's aims and objects have been ad- vanced under my presidency in line with the advancements made under the administration of my predecessors in office, and I bespeak for my successor the same courtesy of service and co- operation which has been so liberally accorded to me during my occupancy of an office which will ever be considered by me the greatest honor bestowed by our industry upon anyone engaged in it. A. L. Miller, Retiring President. THRIPS RUIN CYCLAMENS. We had a fine crop of cyclamens in 4, 5 and 6-inch pots. The earliest of them are showing an abundance of buds, but as soon as the buds appear above the foliage they become wrinkled and show brown and black decayed spots. When the buds open, the petals soon fade and look as if they were scorched. I have them on a side bench near the glass, with a little bottom heat at night. I spray them when the sunshine is warm. The foliage is in as perfect condition as I have ever seen. In preparing soil for their final shifting I put a little C ANNAS' RESTING PERIOD. Do canna roots require a long perioci of rest, or could a clump of a new va- riety be transferred to a greenhouse and grown on and dried down only a short time before planting time in the spring, without materially weakening the vitality? H. S. M.— Okla. Cannas really do not need a resting period at all, but for the sake of con- venience we rest them in our latitude, as we lack a continuance of warm out- door climate. You can keep clumps growing all winter if you desire. Can- nas in pots flower weU. You need not be alarmed about the vitality of your plants being lessened if they are not dried off. We dry them off because they are handled more easily when dry. C. W. WILTING CHRYSANTHEMUMS. What is the cause of our Golden Wedding and Grace Burke mums wilt- ing when cut? The soil has only a little rotted cow manure in it. The blooms are fine, some of the Golden Wedding measuring eight inches, but when they are cut and put in water the}' wither. We run the house about .'jO to 52 degrees or cooler. We have never fod them since we planted them; in fact, we never do. F. & F. — Wis. were they just run out? Despite heavier feeding, the foliage was not so brittle as that of other varieties, which bloomed splendidly. W. V. L. — Wis. I am inclined to believe that the trouble you refer to was due to the buds being taken too late. To get fine, large blooms of Marigold, the buds should be taken by the last week of August. M. P. I cannot .account for the chrysanthe- mums wilting .after being cut, because according to your letter they have re- ceived good treatment. It may be that after cutting, the blooms are placed where a draft blows on them. This will cause the trouble. M. P. BUDS TAKEN TOO LATE. Our chrysanthemums were benched as late as July 1 to 5; consequently I thought that in order to grow big blooms I ought to feed them more than formerly. The variety Marigold, being .a strong grower, seemed to require more food than the other varieties, so I applied an extra dressing of sheep manure to them. When the blooms matured I was disappointed to find that Marigold was a failure, the blooms being only the size of large asters. Was this caused by overfeeding or SPRAY INFESTED PLANTS. I wish to know what is wrong with the mum and pompon plants that I have sent you. Would it be safe to take cuttings from them as they are? We have given them the same atten- tion as we did in former years. How- ever, we purchased some new stock plants this year, and these may have been infested. The pompons became in this condition before they were ready to cut. Before they were half open they began to get black under the blooms. B. & S.— Pa. The specimens of chrysanthemums arrived badly infested with thrips and red spider and I would advise that be- fore taking any cuttings you thor- oughly clean them by spraying with nicotine extract and give close atten- tion to the general routine of their care.

I should like to know how late I could propagate geraniums by putting the cuttings directly in 2i4-inch pots and, after they have rooted in these, repot- ting to 4-inch pot3. Or would it be bet- ter to use 3-inch pots and from there shift to 4-inch? My stock plants have been in 4-inch pots set on soil in the greenhouse during the summer. The cuttings are in good shape. Can I take all the cuttings off the old stock, cut- ting the old plants down to within four or six inches of the soil, and after knocking all the earth from the roots, repot them in 4-inch pots; then, after breaking (or will they break in this way?) put them in 5-inch pots for Me- morial day sales! Will they have time to get their growth and bloom by May 30 if I get my potting of cuttings done by mid-December? D. A. M. — Pa. December is as late as vou can root geranium cuttings and have them make good, bushy, 4-inch pot stock for Me- morial day, but you can root cuttings as late as March 1 and have nice plants in 3-inch pots. Trim the leaves quite closely from your cuttings and make the loam in the 2i/4-inch pots quite sandy. Start them on a sunny bench and, if possible, where heating pipes will afford a little bottom heat. Give a soaking watering at the start; then keep them on the dry side until rooted. Never give any shade at any time to geranium cuttings. Indoor cuttings are harder and much less liable to damp off than the more succulent ones produced out- doors. It would be better to shift into 3-inch pots and later into 4-inch. The stock plants when cut back should be left until they start to break, keeping them on the dry side meanwhile ; then shake them out and put into 4-inch pots. If necessary, make a further shift later, or you could probably get the roots into 3-inch pots and then later shift into 4-inch. These will make growth in ample time to produce flowers for Memorial day. Give them a clean, sunny liouse and let the atmosphere be on the dry side for the best results. C. W. PAINTED PIPES TO BLAME. Almost all of our plants are like the geranium cutting and foliage I have sent you. Our begonias, sweet peas and ferns are likewise infected. Will you please tell me what causes this infec- tion? Brown spots appear and then the plants become brittle and soon die. We had all the steam pipes painted with creosote. Do you think that could have been the cause? C. F. C. — Miss. I have never met with this trouble before and I am inclined to believe that the painted steam pipes are the cause of your trouble. M. P. GREEN WORMS ON VIOLETS. I am sending you some leaves from my violet plants, which have a small green worm on them. If possible, I should like to know how to keep this pest away. ' H. A. C. — O. Try spraying with a good nicotine ex- tract, which should be effective. Direc- tions for use, giving the proper strengtli of mixture for application, will be found on the cans. C. W. STRAWBERRIES UNDER GLASS. I have a greenhouse, 20x80 feet, and should like to know if tlie Marshall strawberry would do well in solid benches and what heat it needs. Where can I buy plants'? J. E. M. — Mo. I have had no experience in growing strawberries in solid beds under glass and have never heard of its being at- tempted. I doubt if you could make it .a paying proposition. To achieve suc- cess it would be necessary to plant at once, rest the plants in early winter at a low temperature and start up gradu- ally. I should say that your house could be much more profitably employed with some other crop. I have grown strawberries for forc- ing for forty years and I have had al- most uniform success with them when grown in 6-inch pots and when they have had the necessary heat and rest, placed on shelves or benches in a light house. Such varieties as the one-time popular Vicomtesse Hericourt de Thi- erry, Keen 's Seedling, President, Lan- ton's Noble, Koyal Sovereign, Nick Oh- mer and Marshall have all given good results in America. Marshall still stands supreme as a forcing strawberry; it has size, color, flavor and vigor and is withal free-setting. I should advise you to try pot culture and not plant in beds. Pot up now in 3-inch pots and later shift into 6-inch pots for best success. Careful water- ing, firm potting, liberal soil and liquid stimulants when well rooted are neces- sary to build up strong plants; also the removal of all runners as they appear. C. W. ROT IN CELERY. Last sunuiior I had much trouble witli my celery plants turning yellow and decaying, for which I do not know any reason. I use an overhead irrigation system and have well water with a great deal of iron in it. I planted the celery about eight inches apart in dou- ble rows, and these double rows were about three feet apart. I trust you will be able to tell me what the trouble is, so that I shall have better success next summer. A. D. — S. D. Celery, as is well known, does well in a rich soil and an abundant supply of moisture. Even celery, however, can be overwatered, as I have found to my sorrow, particularly where the soil is stiff and water does not percolate read- ily. In hot weather soaking celery from above has its dangers. If the soil becomes soggy due to poor drainage, or plants remain wet for a long period while the temperature is high, trouble is likely to ensue. I should never water the celery during the day when the sun- shine is strong, but rather on a cool, cloudy day. On plants which you have boarded or tied up for blanching you are sure to have rot if plants are wet for a long period when the temperature is high. Overhead watering has many advantages, but, on the whole, conserv- ing moisture by the constant use of the cultivator is safer and better. 0.

Merry Christmas! Quality pays best in times of scarcity and of plenty. Despite the gloomy predictions, ad- vance orders for Christmas flowers are heavier in many markets than in previous years. Waiting for "the turn of the year" is the affliction of most lines of business. Once the turn is passed, renewed activity is looked for. No one, grower or store proprietor, be- grudged a good workman his full due, but all welcome relief from the exorbitant demands of unskilled labor.

The man who does just enough to ' ' get by" and no more, whether it be for his employer or for customers, is headed in the wrong direction on the road to success. Inquiries regarding houses for con- struction next spring indicate a building boom, say the construction companies. Many large growers are planning addi- tional glass area. Don 't wait for the other fellow to help you cooperate in business improvement. The golden rule, which is the essence of cooperation, can be followed without wait- ing for agreements or organizations. Such is the ironic lot of the greenhouse man. He who congratulated himself two months ago on ample coal for the winter now bewails the fact that his bins are full of high-priced stuff, while he who previ- ously moaned his inability to get fuel is now able to purchase his supply at, in same cases, less than he paid last year. The production of plants and cut flow- ers would have increased, in something like the increase in production in other popular lines during the last two years of free spending, had it not been for the scarrity of trained growers. The slowing down of other industries has sent some good help back to our trade, but other- wise there has been little increase in the trade's body of capable men. Conse- quently, production is not likely to in- crease rapidly, nor are the wages of com- petent growers likely to fall fast or far. Skill comes from knowledge and should be well repaid. If it is not, where is the incentive to acquire the requisite knowl- edge? It will not be long before California will be supplying the trade with large quantities of the stock heretofore ob- tained from Europe. Tripling sums on a firm's books cause as much work as large amounts and it is a matter of business economy as well as courtesy that they be paid promptly. Many well informed men in the plant business believe that prices of both nurs- ery stock and greenhouse plants are due for an early drop in keeping with the re- adjustment of prices in other commodities. With its December 4 issue the Garden- ers' Chronicle, of London, published a colored supplementary illustration of Carnation Gorgeous, which was raised by Peter Fisher, of Ellis, Mass., who also sent out Enchantress, Beacon and Benora. In the country towns a large number of those who start in the florists' busi- ness have previously been engaged in some other occupation. At first they use the letter-heads of the old business and then they wonder why wholesale florists will not accord them wholesale prices. The first thing for any florist to do is to get a printed letter-head. There has been heavy loss of cycla- mens this season from a fungous disease new to the growers. Some growers have escaped, but where the disease has made its appearance the destruction has been from half to the whole stock. One plants - man has stated that the plants lost on his place, if he had them in good shape now, would have brought him $15,000 to $18,000 this week and his case is not ex- ceptional in his locality. THE OHBISTMAS OUTLOOK. The doubt that delayed almost all or- ders for Christmas flowers in the whole- sale markets seemed to have dissipated by a week before the holiday. Instead of hesitation, there was such strong be- lief in heavy Christmas business that many houses had all the orders they cared to take for most items. Plants- men had sold all their available stock and supply houses felt a strong call for holiday materials. It was evident long ago that the va- riety in plants for Christmas buyers would not be large this year and it proves to be scant indeed. Poinsettias are not so numerous as they have been, and cyclamens suffered heavily in some sections from a fungous trouble no one seems to have identified. Berried plants were few. Solanums seemed to be the only item of which the stock was gener- ally large. Some stray araucarias com- manded high prices. Ericas were well done in many places. Begonias and primulas were prepared for the moder- ate-priced buyers, but no stress was laid upon them for the holidays, since it was felt they would be as good prop- erty later. Cut flowers also showed a lack of va- riety. Roses were in large supply, of course, and the cuts were generally of good size, although a greater number of growers are making no attempt to crop at Christmas, but counting on quality to bring as good returns as the cut comes. The longest-stemmed flowers were the last to be moved, the demand being keenest for medium lengths. Carnations were affected by weather conditions in some localities, as were sweet peas to a marked degree. Violets have seldom been fewer. The shortness of the supply naturally caused an increase in themse of artifi- cial materials. Never have they been so largely employed. Not only^did depart- ment stores advertise baskets and bouquets of artificial flowers from $2 to $15, but florists in many cases filled their windows with them. The many effects to be made with the large variety of stuff of this sort to be had attracted the notice of many shoppers. As the big day drew nearer it became increasingly apparent that this was not to be the apathetic occasion many pre- dicted, but a Christmas that would fill the florist's store with buyers. THE POINT OF THE MATTER. The use of artificial flowers, painted and dyed grasses, prepared foliages and other materials whose use many in the trade decry is more general and more extensive this Christmas than has ever been the case before. Growers of plants and cut flowers have expressed not only disapproval but alarm over it. Some retailers deplore it, while others shrug their shoulders and proceed, in their own words, "to give the public what it wants." The difference in the attitude of va- rious members of the trade on this mat- ter is one of reasoning methods. One says the public is responsible for the increase in the demand for artificial stuff. The other says the florist is re- sponsible because he educates the public to the use of it. But the public hasn't so much to do with the matter as the trade itself. Let the public buy more artificial stuff if it wants to. But florists' desire should be to sell more flowers. If we don't sell flowers, we lose our reason for existence. The department stores and novelty shops can sell artificial stuff, and if we cater particularly to that trade we are only losing our identity as sellers of live flowers and plants. There is small reason for alarm, how- ever. The public will always want and always buy real flowers. The artificial will not supersede the natural. Rather will the reverse be true when the latter become more plentiful. Production is at present curtailed; the demand for plants and flowers has rapidly grown, while glass area has increased little, if at all. Let's try to grow more flowers and bet- ter flowers; then artificial stuff will as- sume its proper place in the florist's es- tablishment, as a useful accessory. The urgent cry should be, not, particularly, less use of artificial stuff, but greater production of flowers and plants. EAST AND WEST.

Erickson. After forty years of loyal and effi- cient service as foreman at Peterson Nursery, Chicago, Erick A. Erickson died December 18 and was buried De- cember 21. Mr. Erickson was 66 years of age. He left Sweden in 1879 and made his way almost directly to Peter- son Nursery, where he lived on the nursery property for thirty-five years and made a wide circle of acquaintances in the nursery trade. Mr. Erickson re- moved from the nursery grounds about five years ago to establish his family in a home of their own, where he leaves a widow, a son and two daughters. His death occurred in a hospital, following an operation on his stomach. Mrs. Maxie Oude DeShlelds. Marie Gude DeShields, elder daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Adolphus Gude, of Gude Bros. Co., Washington, D. C, died Sunday evening, December 19, at the age of 30. In addition to her husband she is sur- vived by her mother, father, sister and three brothers. The burial took place at Bock Creek cemetery Tuesday, December 21, at 2 p. m. Mrs. Jobn C. Hatcher. Mary A. Ki^, wife of John C. Hatcher, of Aio&terdam, N. Y., died unexpectedly, F^ay, December 17, at the family hom«at Hoffmans, N, Y. Mrs. Hatcher iS^ been suffering for some time with affaffection of the heart, but was apparently in good health when she retired Thursday evening. As she was about to arise Friday morning she was seized with the final attack, and death was almost instantaneous. Mrs. Hatcher was born at Hunton, Kent, England, and was married at Croydon, Surrey, England, to Mr. Hatcher, February 20, 1870. They came to America on their wedding trip and were so well pleased with the country that they determined to settle here. Amsterdam and its vicinity have been their home practically since that time. She was a member of St. Ann's church and in earlier years was active in its Aid Society. Last February Mr. and Mrs. Hatcher observed their golden wedding anniversary. Seven children were born to them, all of whom preceded the mother in death except one son, George Stanley Hatcher. Surviving are the husband, one son, three grandsons, a brother, Charles P. King, of Oriskany Falls, N. Y., and a sister, Miss Harriet A. King, who lives at the Hatcher home. Jacob Boxer. Jacob Boxer, manager of the Central Floral Co., Denver, Colo., died Friday, December 17, following a short illness with pneumonia. Mr. Boxer was a com- paratively young man in the business, being only 28 years of age. He had been manager of this company for the last two years and was widely known throughout business circles. He is survived by his father, mother, one brother and a sister, with whom he made his home at 1300 Hooker street, Denver. R. E. H. CHICAOO. The Market. There was steadily increasing busi- ness last week, which, with a reduction in the supply, due to colder weather and the holding back for Christmas, re- sulted in fairly clean iceboxes every night. Shipping was active and was, relatively, so much better than city busi- ness as to cause widespread comment. Why is it out-of-town demand is so in- creasingly stronger than local trade? No one seems to have the answer. But it seems plain Chicago is not consuming so many flowers, in proportion to its population, as are many other cities. Last week's activity, too, was made greater by the booking of Christmas orders. When desks were closed Satur- day night in the wholesale district it was with a general feeling of relief and satisfaction. The success of the Christ- mas season seemed to have been assured. Indeed, it was the general report that the number of orders then on file for Christmas was greater by a consider- able margin than on any previous De- cember 18. Some wholesalers said their orders did not average so large as last year and others said the buyers were staying off the more costly grades, but practically all agreed that they never before had so many orders on file a week before Christmas. Several houses said they were booked up to the limit of their probable supply on practically everything but long roses — the propor- tion of long stock is greater than ever this Christmas and selling slowed up when the 35-cent grade was passed. One interesting feature was the way the city buyers took to cover last week. Quite a number of them had stated more or less publicly that they did not in- tend to place orders in advance at high prices, purposing, instead, to take their chance on the market December 24, but when they saw how the out-of-town or- ders were pouring in, most of them thought discretion the better part of valor and placed orders for much or all the stock they expect to need. There are, however, a few who are sitting tight, counting that the market will not be stronger Christmas eve than it has been thus far. Probably they are right so far as prices are concerned, but it seems open to question if the stock they will get will be of the most satisfactory character. First-class stores can not afford to take too many chances in that respect. Roses were rather plentiful last week, the unusually warm weather prior to December 17 having brought on some of the Christmas crops a few days earlier than the growers wanted. Roses, that is, pink roses, will be the principal item of Christmas supply. There will be scarcely any local Beauties, the supply turning out to be less than expected. Neither red roses nor Beauties will cut much figure this Christmas. Columbia and Premier will be the reliance. It looks as though there will be enough of the longest grades at the price, but a shortage otherwise. Many wholesalers stopped taking car- nation orders several days ago. No pre- vious Christmas has seen such a short- age of corsage flowers. The sweet peas dropped their buds at just the wrong time. There are practically no local vio- lets any more and the shipments from the east are negligible. No Brunners are to be had from California. Orchids and gardenias are so few and dear as to cut little figure in the average retail store. This leaves valley in undisputed possession of the field. There are more mums and pompons this week than in any previous season and, with the shortage of other flowers, they are selling well, although there are indications the public is tiring of them after three months. Paper Whites, So- leil d'Or, stevia, lilies, mignonette, calendulas, etc., are in the usual supply and likely to move at fair prices because of the limited variety of stock avail- able. There is little holly and boxwood is selling unusually well. Bouquet green is selling at a record price this week, 20 cents per pound, with small supply and limited demand. Holly is scarce and commands $9 per case. Weather Costs Trade Thousands. The weather has been black and cold for days. It has cost the trade many thousands of dollars through decreasing the expected supply of flowers and low- ering the quality. The weather scarcely could have been less favorable. It has hit the sweet pea growers an especially heavy blow. The rose growers will have a good Christmas, but hardly anyone else in this trade will. Growers Elect National Delegates. At the meeting at the Hotel Randolph Thursday evening, December 16, the Commercial Flower Growers of "Chi- cago, whioh holds charter No. 1 as a local branch of the National Flower Growers' Association, elected its dele- gates to the meeting to be held at Wash- ington, D. C, January 27. Since the organization is entitled to one delegate for each twenty-five members or fraction thereof, five were chosen. They are: President Joseph Kohout, Secretary Otto Amling, August Poehlmann, George J. Ball and Henry Wehrmann. With William J. Keimel, president of the na- tional organization, Chicago should have a good representation at this important meeting next month. The organization voted to show its appreciation of Secretary Amling 's services by passing a resolution provid- ing remuneration for his office at the rate of $1 per member per year. The association now has 107 members. The meeting to be held January 20 will inaugurate a series of exhibition nights, the flower for which will be selected at the meeting preceding. Car- nations will be shown next month. Peter Pearson, who had been explor- ing Park Ridge December 12, brought in the names of two new members from that town, Carl Schramm and Joseph Carnehl. Upon the approval of the membership committee, they were duly elected members. Frank Oechslin's Christmas. Christmas brings to Frank Oechslin a few days of peace, for then the rush of moving out the large stock of plants for the holiday from his ranges in Aus- tin and Forest Park is over. Though the stock was, as in the case of most plant growers, not so large as in some years, there was more than enough to 22 The Florists^ Review Dbckubbb 23. 1920 ^ijMOi »^dXi^»>tMaM »^i»tiv-»>*ijfli .^rXkJUJMW ,^iKiv»»)iiacMi .^jCkjujacmi ^^M^mfem anthitf ^HtSi ^mf^WOi rfthtf IWSWf i FLOWERS For YOUR NEW YEAR'S TRADE It will not be safe to count on a large sup- ply of stock for New Year's — there is every indication flowers will be scarce throughout the middle-west, and in unusually great de- mand. It will be wise to insure a reason- able supply by placing an order with us now, with additions to be wired as you keep on selling. Amling's will have a good quantity of high grade flowers of all kinds for New Year's, but will be strongest on the better grades of Roses— our cuts had not quite reached their height for Christmas and will be at their heaviest in the next few days.

Euiru<;e, of Beverly Faring, Doug- las Eccleston, superintendent, has made an extensive display of orchids at Horti- eultural hall and they have been easily the star features of the shows of the Massachusetts Horticultural Society. The closing display of the year, Decem- ber 18 and 19, was well advertised in the Boston papers and attracted many thousands of visitors. A group sixty feet in length with two fronts was staged in the center of the lecture hall. Phoenix and other piilms were ilottcd down the center and among, or directly below, them hung ]dialipnopsis, oncid- iunis and cynibidiunis, wliile groups or individual specimens were staged be- low them. Artificial rockwork was used on the fronts and green sheet moss hid all receptacles from view. This group was the best arranged of the year and contained a great wealth of choice material. Some fnie varieties were seen. Among the hundreds shown were Odontoglossum crispum Kongo Dragon, Inslcayi and Diana: Phalff'nopsis amabilis, exceed- ingly fine, and Schilleriana and Lindeni ; Vandns Luzonica, Sandcrian.a and cajru- lea: Miltonia Blcuana; T'attleya Triamr A.

It is in- teresting to know from such a .indicia I mind that greenhouses atlaclied to suburban homes cannot be classified as "blots on the landscape," as some cranks aver, Alfred R. Ilutson, head salesman for W. H. p]lliott & Sons Co.. is at business again after a week in bed with the grip. The Beacon Florist, John Eiscmann proprietor, located in one of Boston's largest retail stores on Beacon street, does a tremendous business in plants, Christmas wreaths and baskets for tlie holidays. The sales made here would surprise anyone who supposes that flower shops in big retail stores do not have much business. Mr. Eisemann filled several large funeral orders last week. J. O. Thilow. of Philadelphia, will give a stereopticon lecture on "A Trip to the South Sea Islands" on behalf of the Gardeners' and Florists' Club at the big .ioint meeting of agricultural and allied bodies at Horticultural hall February 8.

Everyone looks for a good Christmas business, but few are optimistic enough to look for a record-beater. With over twenty-five per cent of the hical facto- ries and mill works idle, many millions of dollars in deposits tied up in the banks which handled Ponzi's funds, and a general slacking up in activities, it is reassuring to know that the flower trade is nearly as gond as it was a year ago. Paul Winter, of New York, rej)resent- ing Sutton i.- Sons. Reading. Eng., was among last week's callers on the trade. At the establishment of the W. W. Edgar Co.. Waverley. the stock of some 500 heavily fruited Ot.'ilieitc oranges is a prime feature. These jilants are in short supi)ly this season. A few years ago Boston bought nearly all its orange plants in and around New York. Now such firms as Thomas Roland. W. W. Edgar (Jo.. Wollrath 's.

The dullness in other lines has been of great benefit to the trade in prompt ex- j)ress service at this time. The M. Bice Co. stated. December 18, that orders re- ceived that morning had gone out by express. Phil. NEW YORK. The Market. Last week brought little improvement in the cut flower market. With supply at a low mark and demand in propor- tion, it is rather hard to imagine what form an improvement would take. Clearances have been fairly easy, ex- cept as regards a few items not gener- ally considered as staples. Taken all in all, the situation could hardly be con- sidered as bad, although, admittedly, far from normal. Monday, December 20, arrivals were quite light, lighter tlian usual for the first day of the week, and buyers are throwing out the usual hints as to "pickling" for the Christmas trade. It may be said for the grower, however, that plenty of stock is coming in that could easily be held, so there is not much evidence to warrant the suspicion. Again, during recent periods of un- usual demand the growers' returns gen- erally have shown better results from the markets a day or so in advance of a holiday. Experiences, in fact, are in favor of uninterrupted cutting and shipping, and it is believed that the wise ones follow this plan. Roses are not in heavy supply, but, outside of short grades, arrivals more than fill the demand. Long-stemmed flowers of excellent quality are slow to clear. American Beauty specials liave advanced to $150 to $175 per hundred, and other roses show advances all along the line. In the hybrid teas, Premier and Columbia are of noticeably high qual- ity, the top grades having stems long enough to carry them into the "big" rose class. Hadley and other reds are meeting the best demand, which is, of course, natural at this season. Carnations are not in great supply, making clearances fairly easy. The price range is about $5 to $8 per hun- dred, with superior flowers of Mrs. C. W. Ward bringing $10 and Laddie $12. 42 The Florists^ Review iM.iKMitKi; L': I;i2if PUSSY WILLOWS Splendid sprays, well coviTcd. Out' own forcing.

Funeral work continues to furnish gen- eral aetivity for tlie stores, while small weddings with their attendant parties, receptions, etc., lielp the situation. The market is somewhat limited in cut flow- ers. However, roses, carnations, violets, chrysanthemums and occasional nov- elties keep things moving. Various Notes. The Lowell Avenue Greenhouses, oper ated by Cohen Bros., have a corner of W. S. Pino's store for the holidays and report good business. The scarcity of good palms and other decorative plants is the source of general criticism bv the dealers. Ed. Brooke, of T. .1. .Tohnston & Co., scoured New England for novelties, and had some fine offerings that sold quickly. Maenair had a handsome window last week, one display being artistically ar- ranged with partridge berry bowls, Paper Whites in bloom with a back- ground of ferns, palms, etc., and bright red ribbons, streamers and dyed grasses. .Johnston Bros, had the largest force of clerks this year in their history, yet everv one was busv. W. H. M. PITTSBURGH, PA. The Market. There is no complaint as to the husi- ness of last week. It was excellent, al- though the shortening in the general supply was foreseen.

Among the earliest of the catalo^es for the spring of 1921 is that of the Ford Seed Co., Eavenna, O., which has just been received. Though so early an arrival, it bears no evidence of undue haste, but every evidence of careful editing. A NEW bulb farm is being started at Fortuna, Cal., some fifty miles south of the Cottage Gardens Nurseries, at McKin- leyville. The owner is Lesley Smith, man- ager of the Humboldt Evergreen Co., of Dyergville, Cal. Mr. Smith is quite fa- miliar with bulb farming around Santa Cruz. For the last four or five years he has been experimenting with certain kinds of bulbs in Humboldt county and finds that they do much better there, both as to flower and bulb. Last year 100,000 Godfrey callas were planted. This year 40,000 Paper White narcissi, 30,000 Von Zion daffodils and 20,000 Emperor daffo- dils were added. The Von Zion variety grows especially well in Humboldt county, MAY MODIFY QUARANTINE. Both for those who hope for modifica- tions in the plant quarantine and for those who support the present strict exclusion, there is interest in a para- graph contained in a recent letter sent from Lisse, Holland, by Tromp Bros., to bulb buyers here. It is as follows: "One thing more we want to bring to your notice, viz.: that again efforts are being made to modify the Quarantine Act No. 37, which might have success, tlie Agricultural Department of Washington itself making inquiries as to the possibility of granting tlie Importation into the U. S. of more kinds of bulbs of the same clean style as hyacinths and tulips, such as Iris his- panlca, gladioli, etc. Our customers do well keeping their eyes open as to these possibilities." G. Overduin, representing Tromp Bros., has arrived at New York to re- main until May. SEED HELD WARRANTED. Unless Disclaimer Is Used. The now general use of express dis- claimers of warranty ia the sale of seeds is again justified by the result of a law- suit just passed upon by the Supreme Court of Minnesota — tho case of John- son vs. Foley Milling & Elevator Co. Defendant sold a quantity of seed wheat to plaintiff, representing, as the court finds, that the grain was "genuine Marquis wheat." It is also found that, relying upon this representation, plain- tiff sowed the wheat and reaped a har- vest of inferior bearded wheat. Affirming the judgment in f.avor of plaintiff for $29'(i, the Supreme court says: "The doctrine that a bargain and sale of a chattel of a particular description imports a contract or warranty that the article sold is of that description, is sustained by a great weight of author- ity. And where a dealer sells an article describing it by name, the identity of which is not known to the purchaser, he must understand that the latter relies on the description as a representation by the seller that it is the thing described. So on a sale of seed by name a warranty that the seed was of the kind named arises. We think the jury was justified under the evidence and instructions in finding that the defendant warranted the wheat sold to the plaintiff to be Mar- Peacock's ^ II, M, Flower and Garden /^'%^*^jB^f Seeds '"".^mm^m^^:^ special offer F'FJ^*f^^ Peacock's Quality Sweet Peas ^ ^ ^^^ WINTER FLOWERING ^^g^K^^^- SPENCER VARIETIES ^'^'^^"™^^^^^^ Asta Ohn, lavender $0.80 per oz.

It is enough if the seller delinitely un- dertakes that the thing sold shall be of a certain kind or a certain quality, and anv positive statement of fact, not of opinion, that this was Marquis wlieat, made by defendant to Johnson in the course of the conversation leading to the sale which would show that the de- fendant intended to bind itself by its statements and which was understood and relied ui>on liy the buyer, constitutes a wai rant^'. ' Rights of Buyer and Seller. "Again, the court instructed the jury: '• 'If from tlie evidence you liutl that <'.'rtain words were sp(dany in- tended to be tiound by it as jtart of the contract of sale, and tliat llie plaintiff believed and relied upon such state- ments in making the purchase, then you may find that there was a warranty that this was Marquis wheat. If you believe, however, from all of the testimony, that what was said by the ])a'rties there was not intended or taken as a warranty, but as an expression of opinion or so-called trade talk, or that j)laintitl' bought the grain without relying on what was said or on his own ins])ection and judgment, then you may find that the company is not liable. ' •'The instruction, when considered in its entirety, was as favorable to defend- ant as could be expected. It ])resented to the jury the real issue in clear and unnnstakable terms and in our opinion could have left no room for doubt in the minds of the jurors as to what the legal rights of the parties were. •'The mea'^ure of damages was the difference between the value of the crop raised from the seed furnished and that of a crop such as would ordinarily have been raised from the seed had it been of the variety contracted for."

PAPER STOCK GO. chicaqOp Illinois from Egypt, produced in 1918 a crop valued at $16,000,000. Over 1,000 varie- ties of soy beans have been introduced from China and other parts of the Orient. From these the experts of the department have, after careful tests, selected eight of the best varieties, which are now largely cultivated and are an important element in the rapid increase in soy-bean production. Peru- vian alfalfa, introduced in 1899, is by far the most productive and valuable variety for the southwest. "Scientists are convinced that there are still great possibilities in the search for new crops, especially for plants that are cultivated little, if at all, in their native countries. Perhaps this is most strikingly exhibited in grasses, many of which have been introduced accident- ally. Thus blue grass, white clover, redtop, tim»tky and many others which came originally from Europe make up nearly all the grass lands of the north, and Bermuda grass from India, carpet grass from the West Indies, dallis grass from Argentina, and lespcdeza from Asia have performed a similar role in the south. California's pastures con- sist mainly of species from the Medi- terranean region, such as alfilaria, bur clover, wild oats, wild barley and numer- ous others. There are undoubtedly in central Asia many specios which, if properly selected and introduced, will add greatly to the carrying capacity of the western ranges, aside from what can be accomplished by rational range management. From this region came alfalfa and sweet clover, both impor- tant in the west. There is every reason to believe also that good grasses and legumes can be found for the cut-over lands of the south, and thus prepare the way for the further development of the live stock industry in that section."

Charlc? E. Morton is manager of this establialinu-nt. Sacrajnento, Cal.— Upon the comple- tion of the new greenhouses, at Forty- sixth and M streets, the East Lawn Nursery lield a formal opening, Decem- ber 9, and advertised in the daily news- papers, offering a gift of a potted fern to all visitors who purchased a dollar's worth of flowc-rp (^r plants on that day. A. Cruikslianks is superintendent. Santa Barbara. Cal. — At the annual meeting of tin- Santa Barbara County Horticultural Society officers were elected as follows: President, E. O. Orpet; vice-president. P. Reidel; secre- tary, A. R. Gould: financial secretary, Charles Waugh: treasurer, Otto Neide- muller, and directors, James Brown and P. A. Vincent. The society has plans for a flower show early in April. SANTA CRUZ, OAL. Owing to The increased demand for Los Roblcs bulbs, the Los Robles Co. has found it necessary to discontinue the retail nuiscry and florists' business. The company will devote itself exclu- sively to the growing of bulbs for east- ern ship>meni. This change made neces- sary a slight alteration in the firm name. It is now known as the Los Robles Co. From now on the bulb growings will be restricted to freesias, callas, Paper Whites, miniature or Colvillei gladioli and other bulbs for forcing purposes. The growing crop is in excellent shape and a banner harvest is expected this coming season. LOS ANGELES, CAL. The Market. At the tiHit of writing the indications are that tJie dry, open weather will continue until Christmas, and if this is the case, there will be a better and more abundant supply of stock in this market than ever befort. Poinsettias are large and of fine shijiping quality, while all kinds of outdoor flowers arc plentiful. Baby zinnias and other tender stock that has n»t been cut. owing to lack of demand, look as tiright and as showy as in August. Roses from indoors were never in better supply and the growers say their cut will last well over the holiday>. The heather being shipped for Christ- mas is. unfortunately, not so well de- veloped as usual at this time of year, and it is considered a pity to have to ship tliis. as it gives the stock from this market a bad name early in the season that may check the sale later, when the stock is at its best. Except for a few parts of California, it is hard to get out- door stock in time for long-distance shipping for Christmas. Plants grown under glass or frames are, of course, more forward and help out in basket work or as specimens. Both wholesalers and retailers are in good humor over satisfactory business and, from present appearances, the holiday trade will be excellent. The stores carrying greens and holly report heavy sales. Various Notes. Fred Howard and Roy F. Wilcox left for San Francisco to attend a meeting of an executive character in connection with the California Association of Nurs- erymen. F. H. Allen, of the Allen Water Gar- den, has purchased two acres of land near the foothills to increase his area for lily ponds and other aquatics. Sev- eral new ponds and also a greenhouse for water plants are in prospect and Mr. Allen still keejjs his Hollywood store for retail sales. He has made wonderful progress in the few years he has been in business. Sufficient money has been subscribed or promised to provide financial sup- port for the new market, to be known as the American Florists' Exchange of Los Angeles, while a most favorabi ' option has been obtained on a suitabi location. An enthusiastic meeting wa held December 10, when the articles o incorporation and suggested by-lav were read by Tom Wright. In additio to Mr. Wright, the following were pres ent: Arthur Howard, C. Bates, M Dennison, E. A. Rust, F. R. Hills, treas urer; Walter Armacost, A. F. Borden John Polder, J. Rolleri, John Bodger Jr., F. H. Allen, Robert Mesick, H. R Richards, Frank Warner and his son, M. Warner, George J. Hall, G. Bridge ford, Albert Goldenson, Gebhard Prechti and H. Amling. Gus Swenson was not able to stay for the meeting, but left a check for his subscription. While manj of the details are not yet available for publication, the interest taken by many ]irominent men in the trade is a guar- antee of the safe launching of the idea in a practical and successful manner.

A spring forms the source of water supply for what will eventually be a fine fish and lily pond under lath and, wheu the planting is finished, this will be a most attractive corner.

California ber- ries, English holly, red pepper boughs and redwood spr;iys are p entiful and arc being shipped in largo quantities to points all over the country. In fact, the demand for decorative material is so big that there will certainly be no sur- plus as the holidavs draw near. On account of the shortage of good stock, growers are asking and to some extent obtaining holiday prices already. Various Notes. Since everyone was rushed with holi- day work, there were only fourteen members ])resent at the last meeting of tlie Retail Florists" Association. There- fore no business was transacted in the matter of electing pormanent ofliotrs oi adopting a rej)ort of the committee on by-laws.- All the florists are cooperat- ing, however, in the matter of the com- ing Sunday closing and in the decision to advertise nati5nally and locally dur- ing tlir coming year.

Darbee expressed the sea- timents of many local florists when she said recently, ' ' How fortunate we are to be florists! Merchants in so many other lines are loaded up with goods which they bought at the apex of the market and now have to dispose of, with prices dropping rapidly. We are thankful not to have accumulations of stock on hand. We have an excellent holiday season ahead of us and are just glad to be florists.' ' J. A. Axell states that he is almost booked up to capacity with holiday or- ders. Among Mr. Axell 's holiday goods are some fine Heliehrysum monstrosum, in bronze and yellow, which growers are bringing in just when the straw- flowers are scarce. General A. J. Gooch's growers are supplying him with enough frcesias to fill some extensive orders. lie is fea- turing pepper boughs, which arc rich in red berries. Enomoto & Co. have a well lighted and thoroughly equipped studio in their offices where the dried lotus is painted as it is imported from Japan. It is in demand for house ornaments, show win- dows and table decorations. In addition to lotus, a shipment of bamboo has been received. The nurseries of Domoto Bros, have been sending in good crops of violets and roses, just when these flowers were in demand.

The United Flower & Supply Co. has about 200 dwarf Japanese trees left, which are expected to be in demand for the holiday trade, as no more arc coming from Jai)an. Just enough roses to supply all its cus- tomers are coining in from tlie nurseries of the E. W. McLellan Co. The last two days of the holidays, December 24 and will see all the rose cut of this tirm devoted entirely to the San Fran- cisco trade. The miniature redwood wreaths, de- signed by the Misses Hannou, are in ile- mand at points as far away as the Hawaiian islands and New Zealand. This store 's tiny boutonnieres, made of strawflowers wired with artificial foli- age, are being much worn locally, and are being shown in dainty gift boxes. Podesta & Baldocehi are enthusiastic over the number of holiday orders that are pouring in. F. C. Jaeger Sc Son have reinstalled their telegraph delivery window display as a seasonable holiday suggestion. The Art Floral Co. is finding it no light task to fill all its orders for art floral baskets. Redwood wreaths, slightly silvered to suggest frost, are a novelty which the MacRorieMcLaren Co. is featuring. Some fine potted heather lias its color accentuated by the wrapping on the ]iots, which consists of Japanese mat in small squares of pink and French gray, the lieather mixture. Bows of pink fiber ribbon complete the color effect. The Thomas Floral Co., on O'Farrell street, and its new store, the Conserva- tory, at 1)01 l>arkin street, are experi- (>iicing a big holiday demand for jiotted plants. Both stores are in the aiiart- ment house districts, where flowers help to introduce an element of home. Potted flowers, especially poinsettias and cyclamens, are coming in ])lentifully to the store of the Charles C. Navlet Co. from the firm's nurseries. This is one of the few stores able to fill all orders for cyclamens, which are soine\\hat scarce. The local reappearance of Kolb & Dill, comedians, who first became known at San Francisco, caused Julius K]ip- stein to be busy with floral offerings. Telegraph orders from guests at the Palace hotel are showing the holiday spirit early, according to Fred Ber- trand. The Palace Hotel Flower Shop had an imjioitant ecclesiastical cere monv and noon luncheon last week for Bishop Haniia. The arrival of the Imperial Potentate of the Shriners was the occasion of a decorated dinner in the evening and a breakfast, at which ladies were jiresent. M. M.

D. :ioiied type of flowers, such as geraniums, verbenas, some pot roses and carnations, all of which wore disposed of in the markets of Washington. Today these : two men, still in the prime of life, are ■ the proprietors of two ranges of about 600,000 feet of glass, in which nothing but the best quality of stock is grown. : But I started out in this article to speak of moving pictures; it was the : two ranges of Gude Bros. Co. in opera- ' tiou that I witnessed at the movies, 1 over forty miles away from tlie location of the establishment. Past and Present. The majority of those in the audience '.were j'oung men, all connected with the [florists' business, and to many of them it was an inspiration, as it was to the ; writer. I can remember my first visit 'to the Anacostia range, away back in 1886, when it was just a group of anti- quated greenhouses, the kind you could take the sashes off in the summer time, much the same as frames are handled today. As I looked at house after house of modern iron construction thrown upon the screen, I marveled that such a transformation could take place in little more than thirty years. We often hear of romance in business; did you ever stop to think that no other industry in this country today can boast of the same romantic progress as the florists' industry? The history of Gude Bros. Co. is just a repetition of that of nearly every suc- cessful florists' establishment in the country. Besides possessing executive ability of the highest order, William F. and Adolph Gude find their recreation in the jiroduct ion of high-grade flowers. Flowers are a hobby with them, thougli not a hobby such as golf or fast horses are to some men. Their hobby is to pro- duce the best stock to "Say It with Flowers," and it was only necessary to look at the samples whicli William F. Gude used to illustrate his lecture to real- ize how well they were succeeding with this liobby. What a yileasure it must be for a man like William F. Gude to spend an evening with Iiis brother craftsmen and see the results of his thirty years of toil .'ill pass before his eyes in one evening! Lessons of Real Life. As T sat and looked at this big, jovial fellow, as he joked with those about him, my mind went back to 1889; then down through the years to 1920. I "^.UfMl^^^ Members of the F. T. D.

It would be a great honefit to tlic trade if every successful firm in this country sliould have pictures made of its estaldislinient and send tliein out on a mission of iMlucation. Most clubs meet once or twice a month, and in what better way could a club spend an eveniiifj tlian in looking at what some brother florists have been able to ac- complish?

The wholesalers were kept fairly busy ship- l)ing supplies and the retailers were busy making i)reparations for a large Christinas trade. During the week a heavy sale was reported by some retail- ors of wreaths, festoons, ruseus, artificial flowers in baskets, holly and other greens, especially boxwood, which is in great fa\(ir here. This was especially true of the downtown florists. The west end florists sold little of this class i>f stock, but had on display a wealth of fiiiicy blooming plants and the best mKility in cut stock. The plants in- limit. Koscs in all wirieties airi\ed daily last week and at reasonable prices. I 'rices will, of course, ,ium]i on all stock this week. Tiie rose growers assure the retailers tliat there is a big crop of J'riMiiier, Kusseli, Ophelia. Columbia and Killarnov. Milaily and Sunburst are not so plentiful. Carnation growers, as well, promise an txcellent croj) for the holidays. The \arieties expected here are Nebraska for red. Enchantress for white and pink, Benora for variegated and Ward for dark pink. There will be mums for Christinas, as some of the local growers will have an excellent cut of Bonnaffon, Ilamlmrg, a late i)ink, and pompons, which should meet a large demand.

(Chairman Bourdet stated that a j^rcat deal of important business will be trans- acted. The Foster Floral Co. held an ojieuiiifif in its new quarters last week, on Seventh street near Olive. The first week's business at the new location was up to expectations. Joseph Keuthan, for many years in the emj)loy of Ostertag Bros., has branched out for himself. Last week he opened a store at 4023 Newstedt ave- nue. The place will be known as the McGill Floral Shop. Walter Amling, of I'ann, 111., expects to cut 50,000 I'remier roses for the holi- days. The production of his establish- ment is marketed at St. Louis. The wonderful disjtlay of Christmas novelties in the bijj show windows of Grimm & (iorly, on Washiii<;ton avenue, attracted buyers last week and the sell- hiff force was doubled for this week. The St. Louis Seed C'o. sent out large sliiiuneiits daily of holly, greens and riiscus. August Ilummert said the de- mand from outside points was larger than ever this year. Oscar C. May, of Sap(ington, Mo., had an excellent season with cut mums of the highest quality. Mr. May will have a large cut of yellow jiompons for Christmas. Tlie second floor of the William C.

A. Werner & Bro., of Clayton, Mo., and Otto Brucnig, of Olivotto, Mo., have cut a splendid crop of roses. The entertainment committee of the St. Louis district branch of the National Flower Growers' Association, consist- ing of L. J. Bourdot, W. A. Roue and C. E.

Andre, the older, has charge of the greenhouses, and Roger, the younger, attends to the retail part of the busi- ness. The symjiatliy of the trade was ex- tended last week to F. W.

Trade has shown considerable life during the last week, and all the stores have been exceedingly busy for Christ- mas. Stock is fairly plentiful and of good quality, and the demand is great. Prices naturally are higlicr, and are about even with those of a year ago. Every effort has been made to get most of the potted stock into the market for the holidays, and, according to reports, conditions are favorable. While a few chrysanthemums are still available, the supply is quite small, but it is possible they may last until the first of the year. Good Premier, Columbia and Ophelia LOUISVILLE, KY.

Monday evening, Dccciiiher lo, the Florists' Club had one of the finest and most largely attended meetings it has ever held. The idea of the entertain- ment committee is to make each meet- ing educational, and if the last meeting is a sample of wli;it is to come in the fu- ture, then the florists of Baltimore will learn mueh about how the business is conducted throughout tlie country. First, there was a splendid lecture by W. F. Gude, of Gude Bros. Co., Washing- ton, D. C, in which he made a strong plea for the F. T. D. and for the na- tional publicity committee. Then there were moving pictures of this firm's two immense ranges in oporation. Mr. Gude used some fine cut stock from these to illustrate his lecture. It was a wonderful inspiration to the younger men to see what this firm had accom- plished in the short span of thirty years. Zanesville, 0. C. L.

There lias been much shopping in flowers for several weeks. Prospoctivo buyers apparently are comparing prices of flowers with those of other merchandise. As a re- sult, many onlcrs have been placed earlier than usual. Growers realize that the public is not spending money so lavishlj' as it did a year ago and have prepared accordingly. Plants to soil from $1.50 to $7 have been largely stocked for the average buyers, witli a large ])art of tlic supply between $!.;")() and $3. Of course, there are many which are more expensive and these will be sold too, but most preparation is for the less expensive trade. Thanks- giving demonstrated that the buying was above normal in number of sales rather than in large amounts. In cut stock roses are plentiful, while the supply of carnations is limited. Sweet peas will not tigure largely in this market. Various Notes. Miss J. E. Murray has sold many strawflower baskets and wreaths the last two weeks. The Muehlebach Flower Shop is han- dling Christmas trees and greens this year. The Peterson Floral Co. has been working nights since December 1, mak- ing wreaths and baskets.

J. Austin has sold large numbers of cherrv and pepper plants this vear. The T. J. Noll Floral Co. has'dispose.l of a heavy stock of florists' supplies. Ribbons and all kinds of artificial flow- ers sold well. The company expects to handle between 12,000 and i4,00(i carna- tions for Christmas.

ICoutlnueil from page M.l Floral Co. here, has started in business for himself in a small store at Loa Angeles. John Holze, of the Queen City Floral Co., sent in the first tulips of the sea- son and reports a splendid crop in pros- pect. He is also showing some fine potted ferns and reports a ready sale of these at the firm's retail store. Fred Linegar is now with the sales force of the Burns Floral Co. and will fill in during the holiday season. His brother, Bert Linegar, reports an in- crease in decorations for the last fort- night. This firm is still receiving some of the finest large mums on the market. H. H. Peterson, of the Everett Floral Co., Everett, Wash., was a street visitor last week and reported prospects for the best holiday season yet at Everett. The growers in that section arc entirely cleaned up and he found it difiicult to secure enough stock in several lines from the local growers. Florists of Seattle last week received formal notice of the marriage of Pat- rick W. Lee, of Vancouver, Wash., and Miss Anna J. Burns, former owner of the Burns Floral Co., at Immaculate Conception church, the latter part of November. The groom's brother acted as best man, while Miss Betty Kyan was bridesmaid. L. W. McCoy has been showing a nov- elty corner alcove in his window, which has attracted considerable attention. A cardboard reproduction of a bright-col- ored parrakeet seated in a ring hung across the front, while a bright-colored basket was set in the alcove. Guy French, representing the Ameri- can Bulb Co., Chicago, called on the trade last week. The Beall Greenhouse Co., at Vashon Island, Wash., is adding a new green- house to its range, a unit 40x200 feet, which will be ready with roses for next fall. This firm sent in the first cut free- sias of the new season. The Orpheum Floral Co. has doubled its sales force to care for the holiday business and reports a splendid call for both flowers and foliage in small, bright- colored baskets. Kosaia Bros, are showing some of the finest pink poinsettias ever seen in this market, and this flower in combination with the red blooms is made into some effective baskets and crates. A large cut of orchids between now and Christ- mas is promised from the greenhouses, and the same fine showing of cyclamens is reported.

This and funeral work resulted in overtime work for the staff nearly every night last week. Harry Crouch and E. W. Clark, of this shoi), were on buying trips the greater part of last week. One large wedding and several deco- rations were reported last week at Ken- ney's Home of Flowers, and the in- creased social ;Hti\ities are helping to keep business uji. The Hollywood hardens have been enjoying gdod business and there has been a demand for the novelties worked out for tlie holiday season at this shop. Potted orange trees are again being shown at lliis store, with good results, and it is expected that their own green- houses will supply all the poinsettias needed for this holiday. It has been suggested that Seattle offers a chance for the secretary of the S. A. F. in protecting the trade slogan, "Say It with Flowers." A local baker has for the last few weeks been fea- turing in his advertising the phrase, "Say It with Fruit Cake— It Lasts Longer, ' ' and last week a furniture house in the university district branched out with • ' Sav It with Wall Paper — Why Not?'"

December 16, the Lancaster County FloriSkts' Association held its regular meeting in the Chamber of Commerce rooms, with President W. B. Girvin, of Leola, Pa., in the chair. Fifteen mem- bers were present. Nominations for officers for 1921 resulted as follows: President, W. B. Girvin; vice-presi- dent, B. F. Barr; secretary, Albert M. Herr; treasurer, Harry K. Eohrer. Mrs. Albert M. Herr read a summary of the year 's work, and members of the club are elated over the work accom- plislicd in 1920. A, committee was appointed to ar- range a trip to the carnation show, at Washington, D. C, January 26 and 27. B. F. Barr, Elmer J. Weaver and Harry K. Eohrer constituted the committee named. Numerous plans for next year's work were discussed. One new mem- ber was elected. The meeting was preceded by a trip to Strasburg, Pa., calling first on Amos H. Eohrer, whose carnations were in line shape. White Wonder, Belle Wash- burn and Ward are the standard ones. Mr. Eohrer 's range is a model for neat- ness and good management. At J. Wade Gayley's, an entire house was planted with Matchless, which was grown to perfection. The plants showed from twenty-five to thirty-five flowers and buds, and growth following. Bea- con, as grown here, shows tlic same vigor it possessed when introduced. Ward is the favorite shade of pink. Laddie is making a fine showing, and next year considerable space will be planted with it. Mr. Gayley's treat of Baldwin apples and cigars was enjoyed. At Charles B. Herr's, the carnations were also found in excellent condition. Matchless, Ward, Supreme and Belle Washburn were the favorites. Fisher's new red docs not show up as well as had been expected. A sport of Ward, similar in color to Euth Baur, excited favorable comment. In neatness and cleanliness his establishment is not sur- passed. H. K. E. LAKE CHARLES, LA. J. G. Strong, formerly with the Lang Floral & Nursery Co., Dallas, Tex., has built a greenhouse, 15x50 feet, at his residence, near Lake Charles. A large space has already been given to Asparagus Sprengeri and plumosus. He is also contemplating growing small roses. He believes the soil is ideal for rose culture. Mr. Strong is cutting a large quantity of fish moss for use in nothern homes, which is a new venture also. ABUNDANCE OF STOCK Per 100 Per 1000 3 -In. CyclamenJ, 8 varieties $15.00 $140.00 4 -In.

CHRYSANTHEMUMS The highest quality in Chrysanthemums is accorded our products by the majority of Commercial growers. A few so-called Exhibition varieties under the best state of cultivation have in a degree Commercial qualities, but such qualities are greatly depleted under conditions slightly adverse. In other words, there is little or no middle ground— they are either good or bad. In considering Commercial qualities, the best returns for the labor bestowed designate the varieties most useful to the grower. A list of up-to-date varieties comprising new, re- cent introductions, and the best of the older kinds, will be furnished upon request. ELMER D. SMITH & CO. Adrisin, Mich.

When information is desired regarding the capacity of boil- ers, or the amount of radiation required for a greenhouse, the neededtemperatures should be stated in the inquiry, as well as the amount 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. RECORD COAL PRODUCTION. For the second time in a fortnight pro- duction of soft coal has made a new maximum for the year. The output dur- ing the week of December 11 is esti- mated at 12,865,000 net tons, an increase of 33,000 tons over revised figures for tlie preceding week, which up to then was the record. The output the week of December 11 has been exceeded but three times in the history of the country, the weeks of July 13 and September 28, 1918, and October 25, 1919. The week of December 11 was the tenth in .a period of sustained heavy production which has been equaled but once before and that in the summer of 1918, when the zone system, car pools and other war-time measures designed to stimulate production were in force. The present rate is far above that in the corresponding period in any of the three, years preceding. It is the more remarkable because, effective November 29, the last measure of priority in the use of open-top cars was withdrawn. Cumulative production for the calen- dar year 1920 up to December 11 now stands at .'j2.'5,403,000 net tons, or at the rate of 1,799,000 tons per working day. If this rate be continued for the sixteen working days remaining, the total output for 1920 will be 5.54,000,000 tons. Production during the first 293 work- ing days of the last four years has been as follows, in net tons: 1917, 525,365,- 000; 1918, 556,343,000; 1919,431,091,000; 1920, .525,403,000. In bituminous production 1920 is rap- idly gaining upon its predecessors. It is within 31,000,000 tons of 1918, but this does not mean a great deal, because in that year production exceeded consump- tion and jirovidod for a net addition to consumers' stocks of more than 30,000,- 000 tons. Neither does it signify that 1920 is far ahead of 1919, for in 1919 production fell short of consumption and consumers used up the extra stock they had acquired in 1918. It is particularly significant to note that 1920 has now passed 1917, a year when requirements were large and production about equaled consumption. PIPING FOR A NEW HOUSE.

For the side walla run a 3-inch flow pipe at each plate and connect each flow with a coil of five 2-inch return pipes, carried on the side walls.

Among the cut flowers which are plentiful are roses, carnations, vio- lets, sweet peas, poinsettias, narcissi and daisies. Magnolia, boxwood, galax, moss, holly and rope wreaths are in abundance. Among the plants which are on sale are poinsettias, begonias, Cleveland cherries, cyclamens and ferns. Ruscus appears this year in red, green, gold, silver and white. As usual, red and green rope, loose holly, mistletoe and green moss are in the market and receiving their share of the sales of decorative articles. F.

MO. — GREETINGS=^ In again extending to our many friends — customers and others— our best wishes for a Merry Christmas and Happy New Year — we want to thank them for the many favors they have extended to us during this past year. It has been a great year for us; yet notwithstanding the difficulties of production — shortage of labor and materials and disorganization of transportation— we have maintained our reputation — To deliver or complete a job at the time specified or to refuse to accept the order. Following this time-honored principle, we are proud to say that, although we have had a big business, we have not failed to "come through" on every job. With us a June contract means June — not December, as some of our friends have found that some other builders figure. Our friends may have felt disappointment at our refusing their work, but any well posted builder who had a reasonable amount of work on hand knew that it would be impossible to meet these specified dates and we were averse to making contracts that could not be kept. We would rather lose one order from them than their friendship. Foley promises — like Foley Greenhouses — make good every time. May we have the pleasure of proving both to you? Our prices are down — our facilities are increased — and inquiries are coming in. The Foley Greenhouse Manufacturing Co. 3248 W. 3 1 St Street, CHICAGO 124 The Florists^ Review Decbmbeu 23, 1920 TORONTO, ONT. Club Meeting. The regular meeting of the Toronto Retail Florists' Club was held December 13, with President S. A. McFadden in the chair. There was a large attend- ance and there were several good discus- sions. All the members were enthusias- tic over the outlook for the Christmas trade. The publicity committee chairman, Geo. M. Geraghty, reported as to the work of the committee in Christmas ad- vertising. Both growers and retailers had supported the advertising fund lib- erally, with the result that effective ad- vertising was made possible. It was de- cided to use the Sunday papers and some of the daily papers. The advertising committee also re- ported on the "Say It with Flowers" signboards. It was decided that the growers located at the entrances to the city should have the first chance to pur- chase the signs and several have been sold. Several of the members wanted signs, but will have to take second chance. It was decided to unite with the Gar- deners' and Florists' Association in staging a flower show next year. The president will appoint the committee. S. A. Frost is scheduled to read a paper at the January meeting. The con- veners of the social and entertainment committees were instructed to make ar- rangements for the annual dance in January. The date will be announced later. Carl Grobba was congratulated on the splendid show which he staged for the benefit of the trade at his greenhouses. Steps will be taken to stop Sunday selling. Power has been given author- ities to secure evidence and see that offenders are punished. In February a St. Valentine's social will be held. Various Notes. F. R. Pierson. of Tarrytown, N. Y., was a recent visitor. Business is piling up for Christmas. Memorial wreaths are selling particu- larly well this year. J. J. H. Texarkana, Tex. — Mrs. E. Garrett has opened a flower store at 1624 West Seventh street and is enjoying a good trade. ySie. tJn*ecttcuie lAat ^ THE RECeSNIZED STINOARD INSECTICIDE A SDray remedy for green, black, white fly, thrips and soft scale, FUNQINE For mildew, rust and other blights a£fecting flowers, fruits and vegetables.

On several occasions I have had ap- plications for prices of flowers for use as souvenirs, to be given away at the opening of stores, such as jewelry, and being a little in doubt, should be glad to have your opinion or some of your readers' if in that case they would be entitled to a wholesale price by taking several hundred to be given away to visitors. W. M. — Mich. Flowers seldom are used as souvenirs at store openings except at times of abundant supply. At other times the demands of the trade are such that it is impossible to furnish flowers in quan- tity at a price which will justify their use for souvenir gift purposes. When a florist has more stock than he needs for his regular trade, if somebody wants to take the surplus off his hands and give it away to the public, the florist usually is willing to make a price that will make the transaction possible. It isn't the cost of production which regulates the price of flowers, though it should; the price of flowers is determined by the relationship of supply and demand. HARDY FRAGRANT LILIES. Will you furnish the names of hardy, white, fragrant lilies and the season of blooming for each! When planting lilies I desire to have the season of bloom extended over the longest time possible by obtaining the necessary variety. M. P. C— Ky. The following are the more desirable varieties of lilium adapted for open-air culture. The time for flowering given is for the neighborhood of New York city. The period would, of course, be earlier in Kentucky, L. candidum, commonly known as the Madonna, St. Joseph's, Ascension and the Annunciation lily, must be planted not later than October 1 and the bulbs covered about four inches. North of France bulbs are the best and these usually arrive early in September. The flowers open June 25 to 30. Associated with larkspurs, these immaculately white blooms are especially beautiful. L. speciosum album flowers in August and September. Bulbs arrive from Japan about the end of November and should be planted at once, eight to nine inches deep. L. longiflorum giganteum, the variety mostly grown for Easter flowering under glass, succeeds well outdoors. Japanese bulbs are excellent, but some home- grown bulbs are now offered and should be even better. Tliis lily, with a little mulch, winters well, even in New Eng- lang, and flowers in late May and June. L. regale, or L. myriophyllum, the re- gal lily of China, is a hardy, magnificent garden lily. The flowers are white, slightly suffused with pink. The throat is pale yellow. Plant in late October or November, seven to eight inches deep. This variety of lily flowers early in July. L. auratum, the handsome golden- 'ayed lily of Japan, carries flowers six fo eight inches across, pure white in color, with a wide band of gold in the center of each petal and numerous crim- son spots. This is a beautiful and higlily fragrant garden lily and should be planted in November or December, eight to nine inches deep. The blooms remain from July until September. L.

This completes the list of hardy, fra- grant, white-flowered liliums adaptable for garden culture. Fall is the proper planting season. Deep planting is neces- sary for all but L. candidum. Put some sharp sand below and over the bulbs. Let no fresh manure come in contact with them and give a winter mulch of straw or leaves. C W. THREE CROPS OF SNAPDRAGONS. We should be pleased to know if you have any data at hand relative to leav- ing snapdragons in a bench after the first cut was taken; that is to say, after the blooms were out in September and October. The plants appear to be free from rust, but we were wondering if second growth would be a thin growth. The spikes do not seem strong, but will the stock be strong? K. & S.— Wis. By all means keep your snapdragons from which you have just cut a fall crop. The shoots may look somewhat thin now, but these plants will give you a splendid crop towards spring and the spikes will be immeasurably superior to those cut in the fall. The idea that snapdragons should be discarded after one crop is utterly erroneous. For some years the writer has benched plants early in August. These produced a nice fall crop. In midwinter they hang fire Weeber & Race GREENHOUSE BUILDERS 1815 Johiuon St. , N. E. , Minneapolis, Minn.

Write us for plans and CHtlmates. somewhat, but in March and April they always produced a great crop; and usu- ally, by leaving the plants in, I have secured a third crop from Memorial day until July 1, when the plants are dis- carded. To secure spikes of the best quality, it would pay you to remove a number of the weakest shoots from each plant. But if you want spikes of mod- erate size, adaptable for a home retail trade, disbudding need not be prac- ticed. One point to remember, and it is an important one, is that you should not pinch any shoots until the spikes show color. If pinched while the shoots are soft, the plants will break all right, but the shoots will be, for the most part, blind. Before your second crop comes in, a mulch of old manure will benefit the plants. If you decide to leave them in for a third crop, an additional and somewhat heavier mulch should be ap- plied. To avoid rust, keep moisture oflf the foliage. Air freely, let the mini- mum temperature be 45 degrees to 50 degrees, and do not use gas as a fumi- gant; tobacco papers are safer. C.

The supply of the former was not so large or varied as previously and the weather hindened the latter, but sales were large. To get the stock desired was more difficult than to sell it. /•- r*^i OW independent is the flower business from the general depression that af- fects other lines was dem- onstrated in the Christmas trade last week. A hesi- "^ ^ 0 tancy on retailers' part to (^"^Oti^ prepare for a large busi- ness indicated two weeks ago their opinion that the public would curtail its holiday purchases in the same spirit that it bore, and bears, toward merchandise lines in general. But the "buyers' strike" did not extend to flow- the trade now well less careful florists a part of their otherwise good profit in replacing frozen plants and flowers. Thursday, December 23, was none too mild, the temperature hovering close to freezing in the north central states, though it was generally higher and more favor- able in the east. Weather a Handicap. Friday brought a drop of from a dozen to a score degrees, necessitating more care and greater wrapping. The snow and cold, too, kept indoors many who ers, as knows, for Christmas sales, as a general rule, were not far be- hind the record set last year, a fact that may be considered re- markable in view of the lack of holiday buying in other lines. Not only has the trade reason for satisfaction in an excellent Yuletide business, but it may also congratulate itself on hav- ing so firmly established the de- sire, if not need, of its commod- ity in the public's mind that the demand therefor holds strong though other lines feel general depression. Close to Becord. From all parts of the country reports agree that this holiday's business was one of the best the trade has had. Few ^orists as- sert that it was a record-break- er, though in some places it was exceptionally good. But in many localities this year's sales were so close to last year's high mark that the trade feels elated. Many florists had anticipations of much less and were therefore agreeably surprised by the last- hour tide of buying that brought the total so high. Of course, there were localities where the shutdown of factories and mills cut down the buying capacity of the local trade to a marked de- gree; in those places this Christ- mas has been far behind the profitable pitch of some other years. But these places are not so numerous, nor is the slump so notable as many believed it would be. The sudden descent in tem- perature which took place the day before Christmas in certain sections of the country cost the Send a Gift of Flowers c^ — Blooming Plants or Cut Flowers tastily arranged in baskets GIFT having the distinctive quality of really pleasing the recipient.

Christmas Cheer and Flowery are synonymous. would otherwise have been out shopping that day and deprived florists of much counter trade. Some districts were better favored and florists in those places experienced good cash sales and little difficulty in delivering orders. From those sections reports of the holiday's business are brightest. To the growers, of course, the weather of the preceding month had been a handicap, though whether more than usual is liard to say. The effects were most marked in cut flowers. The variety was notably small this year, and good stock was not overabun- dant. All of the best that could be had found a ready sale, but some poor stock could not be moved. Beauties were not plen- tiful. Carnations felt the effects of the weather, and the small supply available brought excel- lent prices. Red, naturally, was all too scarce. Violets were not in their usual supply and were missed in many stores. Sweet l)eas, because of the weather, cut less figure than usual. Paper Whites and Soleil d'Or helped out in some places, the former being quite abundant in some places. Other items did not cut much figure. Eoses were the big item and, as always, were too few in the good grades and too many in the poor. These condi- tions, one slrould remember, are generally stated, though some items varied widely in different localities. 'kwcMm Heavy Advertising Aided Christmas Sales in Chicago. Plants Not Plentiful. In plants the supply was not the most favorable. The variety on hand seemed less than in former years. For a second sea- son that Christmas stand-by, the cyclamen, was far from plentiful enough. Nor were any other items in markedly large supply. The opinion was general among retailers that there were not enough of the handsome speci- mens that appeal to the best trade. In place of such offer- ings were substituted baskets of ]ilants in which the artistry of the arrangement was made to supply what the culture failed to furnish. Some large poinset- tias and some fine ericas were seen here and there, as were a few of other kinds of plants, but 16 I The Florists' Review Deckmber 30, 1920 the general run gave rise to expression of the sentiment that the greenhouse in- dustry, which lost ground during and since the war, must accelerate its prog- ress to keep step with the retail profes- sion. The scarcity of help in months past was reflected this Christmas, and since this is over, there are hopes of immediate improvement. Foliage plants sold better this Christ- mas than on many past occasions, for the simple reason that blooming plants were lacking for desired purposes. This fact is regarded with favor by all the trade, for such sales promote the use of plants the year around in the home. As an Augury. Interpreted as an indication of what the trade may expect in the way of business during the coming months, the Christmas trade contained propitious omens. As mentioned above, it showed that the slump that had hit other lines of business did not affect the sale of flowers to the extent many members of the trade feared. Indeed, it is believed that the strain of high prices on the salaried class is being somewhat re- lieved and that the resumption of flower buying by individuals so afEected will offset the loss that will accrue as a re- sult of the return of extravagant wages to something like normalcy. This Christmas trade also indicated what had been earlier remarked, that supply was falling behind demand, in plants as in cut flowers, and that a real effort would be needed to catch up. High price of coal, now past, and scarcity of labor, also at an end, were contributing causes, and with them removed, the outlook is more promising. Signs point, too, to- ward a building boom in the greenhouse trade next spring, which will better pro- duction next year. For Easter, however, special efforts must be made to prepare sufficient stock by the early date on which it falls in 1921. Present indications are not for an exceedingly large supply, though it is yet early to prophesy. If general business resumes its active advance, as financial men forecast, then the big day of spring will call for all the material the trade can prepare. being that of the Fleischman Floral Co., Thursday morning, Decen^b^ 23, which occupied nearly an entire page. TAKE TIP FROM REVIEW. CHIC AGO 'S ADVERTISING. The early hesitation on tlie part of flower buyers seemed to have been over- come in Chicago by some means or other, for last-minute business was ex- ceptionally lioavy. The advertising of the Allied Florists' Association was doubtless instrumental in this. For the occasion two advertiseinents. nrcui)ying nearly one-quarter page encli, appeared at the beginning of Christmas week. In the two Sunday papers, December 19, the Tribune and the Herald and Exam- iner, appeared one advertisement sug- gesting flowers as gifts and calling at- tention to telegraph delivery service. This advertisement was repeated in the four afternoon paf)ers the following day. December 21 and 22 appeared the ad- vertisement reproduced on the preced- ing page, three papers being used each day. The total circulation reached by the six insertions of these two adver- tisements, according to Secretary H. V. Swenson's estimate, is 4.000,000. That means, approximately, that everybody in Chicago had a chance to see florists' advertising twice. Individual florists also carried con- spicuous advertising the week before Christmas, the largest and most striking Seek to Explain High Prices. A month ago, in the December 2 issue. The Eeview indicated how florists could, in the words of the article's cap- tion, "Check Complaints on High Prices. ' ' The newspaper publicity given this subject at Thanksgiving time prompted the article and the suggestion then made was that effective work of this character could be done for Christ- mas, when it would be notably needed. The simplest procedure of getting this explanatory material on the subject of prices into the columns of the daily press was illustrated by a letter from The Eeview to the editor of the Tribune, Chicago's largest daily, printed in the latter at that time. The suggestion and the mode of pro- cedure indicated at that time by The Eeview were followed last week in Chi- cago. Working in behalf of the Allied Florists' Association of Illinois, Mrs. Ella Grant Wilson, who had gone to that city from Cleveland for the purpose of getting articles into the daily papers, succeeded in breaking into the Herald and Examiner, the smaller morning pa- per, in the department headed "Letters from the People." Under the caption ' ' Why ' Say It with Flowers ' Is Costly, ' ' she developed the idea suggested by The Eeview, giving a few interesting details for the public's consumptio Her letter, which appeared in the Heral and Examiner December 24, read as f o lows: Becently there appeared In Chicago papers :. article which gave the ImpresBlon that the II riats ^re proflteering. Here are Bome of ti facts: If a rose is a new variety it costs t! grower anywhere from 26 cents to $1 per plan It has to be cared for by a $5-a-day man watered once each day, given air and ventil . tlon, according to weather conditions, stakt" pruned and fumigated at least weekly, soni' times oftener. It requires expert treatment t a man who understands roses. Then one or t\\ shoots only are allowed to come up and matui for flowers. Meanwhile, the coal that costs $12 a ton ha been used to force these two roses into biooin Bvery single thing that enters into the prodiir tlon of the roses has advanced 100 to 3(» per cent — glass, stakes, fertilizer, in8ectici(le^ as well as labor and coal, and not one iten has come down as yet. The same scale hold- good for all flowers grown under glass. After the roses are grown they have to b.' cut, put into water, packed and sent by truck to a city wholesale house, where they an graded into extra selects, selects, firsts, sec ends and culls — all depending on the length am! strength of the stems. Then they are sold to the retail stores. Retail prices are governeil entirely by the wholesale market, and the whole sale market bases its prices solely on the ques tlon of demand and supply. At Christmas time there is very little sun to ripen and open the flowers; sometimes a rose- bud will stay dormant for a week or two durin;: such dark weather as we are having now, whereas a bright, sunny day will bring them popping; open. The retailer must recut the stems, etc. The customer, told to "Say It with Flowers," thinks be will, but when the high-salaried clerk tells him these long-stemmed roses will cost him from $8 to $18 a dozen, he thinks hard thlngn of the florist. If the customer understood and considered what it cost to lay that dozen long- stemmed roses before him, he would wonder how the florist could sell them as cheaply as he does. One grower told me he had 105 men employed and bad put in 60,000 tons of conl and did not expect that would see him through. And, besides, the city retailer has high rents, expensive help and expensive deliveries to make. ^A^Mi^i^ii^^mmmM^y^^ WELL PLANNED ^1rr*^1r?sVlr?'A^1r?'*^'^?-*^1r?s^lr4^1r?A^1,Y*^1l/'•S1^r^^^ HEAVY CHRISTMAS RUSH. Fails to Faze Fox. [I have never had even a few mo- ments to spare on the day before Christ- mas. Tliere was always too much to do. So when an invitation came to see how a flower shop in the center of Philadel- phia is conducted during a holiday rush, I just accepted and made the time. — Phil.] It was a little after 11 on the morning of Friday, December 24. The time is of especial importance because it signifies the peak of the Christmas rush. Charles Henry Fox was standing a few paces inside the door of his at- tractive flower shop just below the Eitz. He looked sercue-and cheerful, as though he had not a care in the world, and after a cordial greeting proposed a stroll through the place. The shop was exquisitely clean and neat. Many beautiful plants were ar- ranged effectively; yet the impression created was that they happened to be there, as it were, by the merest chance. Each plant was a perfect specimen and was placed in a basket of a color that harmonized best with its fruit or foli- age. Mr. Fox favors plants at Christ- mas, because their value and quality are known in advance. Nothing raw is sent out. Everything must be the fin- ished product that will reflect credit everywhere. Customers were coming and going, yet there was no hurry or bustle about the shop; rather an air of quiet elegance. The bookkeeping de- partment, immediately in the rear of the shop, was busily employed entering the orders that had been filled. Departments for Everything. The shipping department was pack- ing and tagging the orders preparatory to delivery. As the order was wrapped it was placed in its special compart- ment with its fellows. A map of Phila- delphia on the wall showed clearly all the streets and to which route the par- cels belonged. The city is for conven- ience divided into sections, such as central, north Philadelphia, German- town, Chestnut Hill, the main line, and so on. Each section is a route; each route is assigned to a truck. Wherever possible, delivery is made by messenger rather than by truck. The next and most important depart- ment was devoted to filling orders. W. C. Harry was supplying both executive and motive power, aided by able assist- ants. Charts, alphabetically arranged, were on the walls, showing the facts concerning all the Christmas orders; by whom sent, to whom, their contents, when sent, where and the route. Each order slip either had the card fastened on it with the tag, or the words, "No Card," were written on it. Beyond the packing room is a natural cooling room formed by the space between two tall brick walls. It is filled with shelves and is ventilated by means of a shaft with an opening at the top at one end. There is an opening near the floor at Deckmbkk aO, 1920 The Florists' Review 17 One of the Four Houses Filled with Cyclamen for Christmas at Frank OecbsUn's Forest Park Range. tlie other end to induce circulation. Flowers placed here retain their vital- ity, even in summer, for a long time. "The idea in all this," Mr. Pox said, "is to keep the departments separate. Let each do their own special work and do it well. There is no rushing in and out of the store to fill orders, no closing the store to fill orders. The packing for today began at 5:30 this morning. It will probably be finished by 5:30 this afternoon, and it will be well done. There will be few mistakes, because each person's mind is on what he or she is doing and the work has been care- fully planned.''" While parting, Mr. Fox gave a glimpse at his floral policy. "I think the drift of the market toward roses is an advantage. At best, the carnation is a plebeian flower. I do not have them at Christmas, because it is impossible to judge their age. Had I 500 carnations in the place, there would be a lot of complaints Monday morning. I do not favor begonias for the same reason. They are even more perishable than carnations. We like cyclamens, poinset- tias and oranges at Christmas. No, peo- ple do not care for ardisias. We put them in the window. They say, 'How prettyl ' and buy the others. Yes, cro- tons are good. "I think it is a mistake to offer pussy willow now. Stock should be confined to reds and purples. Pussy willow should not come until after New Year's. Violets have been unsatisfactory this year, and we have no good substitutes for them. "Before you go, observe how the colors on these pots harmonize with the fruit or foliage or flower of the plant, as the case may be. They are selected with great care." Phil, Frank Oechslin observed the effects of the fungous disease that caused grave concern to some cyclamen specialists, he had an abundant stock of this Christ- mas stand-by, including a large quan- tity of fine specimens in 5-inch to 8-inch pots. Mr. Oechslin has always done well with this plant and this year, as formerly, none better were to be had in his vicinity. They are now all gone, for every plant was called for by Chi- cago retailers for the holidays. But the illustration on this page gives an indi- cation of how fine a stock Mr. Oechs- lin had. This illustration shows one of the four houses filled with cyclamens. At the right is Mr. Oechslin liimself. He is entertaining some members of the American Bulb Co., including the presi- dent, A. Miller, and Guy Eeburn, who were interested in seeing how their seed turned out. The view is in Mr. Oechs- lin 's Forest Park range, about ten miles west of the heart of Chicago. AMERICAN CARNATION SOCIETY. CHRISTMAS CYCIiAMENS. Though, in common with the other plant growers in the Chicago district. Annual Convention. The American Carnation Society will hold its convention in Washington, D. C, January 26 and L'7, 1021. Head- quarters will be at the New Willard hotel, where the exhibition will also be staged.

December 1 the British Carnation So- ciety held its annual winter show in London, and Laddie made its first ap- pearance in quantity. This carnation was first in the salmon-pink class. It was one of the winning twelve vases in the champion class and one of the vases of winners in the class for three Amer- ican-raised novelties. A vase of this variety received a special medal award- ed to the best vase in the show, and it also had an award of merit from the British Carnation Society, as well as a similar award from the Eoyal Horticul- tural Society the previous day. Not a bad record for a debutante. RUINED BY BUD-EOT. We are sending under separate cover a few carnations, some in bud and bloom, for your inspection. These flow- ers came from what seemed to be healthy plants. Any information you can give us as to what the trouble is, etc., will be appreciated. K. F. C. — la. Your carnation buds are being ruined by a mite which causes what is com- monly termed bud-rot. This tiny insect gets into the heart of the young buds and punctures the tissue of the petals. If the plant growth is rapid the dam- age is less severe than it is apt to be during the dull days of winter, when the growth is slow. Any check the plants are subjected to will aggravate it also. Pick oflf the affected buds and burn them. Si)ray regularly twice each week with nicotine, but keep the plants dry overhead otherwise. Matchless seems more susceptible than most other varieties. A. F. J. B. TOO MUCH FUMIGATION. What is the matter with our carnation plants? I am sending under separate cover a cutting of our Beacon. The whole bench from which it is taken has brown tips on the foHiii^ej Wo have eight benches in this house. A bench of Beacon on the opposite side of the house has no such trouble. We have had little sunshine for three months. We have grown carnations successfully for seven years and have never had anything like this before. They are growing well and are in good crop. We have fumi- gated on the steam pipes and sprayed overhead and are inclined to think we have overdone one or the other and have burnt the leaves. We are troubled by neither thrips nor aphis. C— Ore. You are probably right in surmising that you have overdone the fumigating or spraying on your Beacon carnation plants. The dark weather has most likely caused the growth to be rather soft and if the plants happened to be dry at the roots at the time the spraying was done, the damage mentioned would likely result. There is nothing to do now, except to let the plants grow out of it. The shoot submitted showed no indication of disease, outsjde of the burning of the tips. A. F. J. B, the branches and see whether they are healthy. If the wood is dead and the rest of the plant seems healthy, the trouble is probably branch rot. Ther( is really no remedy for it. If the rot- ting is close to the main stem, you might as well pull up the plant and burn it. If the decay is some distance from the main stem, you Can some- times cut away the diseased branch and save the rest of the plant. The gas in your ofi&ce can do your plants no good and a little leak in the pipes might do much damage. Better arrange to dis- continue the use of gas altogether. A. F. J. B. BRANCH ROT OF CARNATIONS. Our carnations do not seem to grow. In the case of many, half of the plant dries up or becomes wilted and the stems are so brittle they snap in two at a touch. They are growing in a rather shady place, on account of the office being built close to the house. The office is lighted with gas. Do you suppose that would have anything to do with the carnations? Another peculiar trou- ble is that the roots do not seem to take good hold of the soil. This trouble we had last year as well. L. & G. — 111. Without a specimen, it is impossible to give a definite opinion as to the na- ture of your trouble. The wilting of portions of your plants might be caused by branch rot.

Losses $30,000. Atlanta, Ga., witnessed a spectacular fire Christmas morning, when the store of tlie C. A. Dahl Co., one of the largest retail flower shops in the south, was completely destroyed and the Nunnally Co., a flower and confectionery company in the same building, suffered heavy losses. The damage to the Dahl Co. is estimated at $30,000 and that to the Nunnally Co. at $20,000. The losses of both firms were covered by insurance. Fortunately, the two companies had nearly all their holiday orders delivered and, up to the morning of the fire, had done an exceptionally good trade. All unfilled orders of both firms were taken care of through the courtesy of brother florists,' who came promptly to the res- cue. Tlie Nunnally Co. resumed busi- ness a few days later at the same loca- tion and the Dahl Floral Co. opened a new store Monday, December 27, at 72 North Broad street. Three-Hour Blaze. The fire originated in the basement of the building, 101 to 103 Peachtree street, shortly before 10 o'clock Christmas morning. Defective wiring was blamed for the blaze. Water and smoke caused a considerable portion of the damage to the Nunnally Co. The fire, besides gut- ting the above-named establishments, spread to the rear of 105 Peachtree street and did considerable damage to an optical firm 's stock there. The total damage, including the value of build- ings, was estimated at over $100,000. The fire was discovered by R. I. Gresham, manager of the Dahl Co., but before the firemen could begin opera- tions the building was wrapped in flames and it was almost three hours before the blaze could be brought under con- trol. Great volumes of smoke rolled out from the front of the burning struc- ture and the firemen were faced by many difficulties. Tons of water were poured into the building and, running through into the basement of the Nun- nally establishment, ruined thousands of dollars' worth of candy and confections of various kinds. Dahl Co. Moves. Eight pumping engines were in opera- tion and more than a dozen streams of water played on the burning structures for three hours. All traffic was held up during the entire morning. It was with difficulty that the flames were prevented from spreading to adjacent buildings. When it became apparent that the establishment of the C. A. Dahl Co. had been wiped out, Mr. Gresham announced that business would be carried on as usual and that the company would oc- cupy a part of the Goodhart-Tompkins store, at 72 North Broad street. Still Another Fire. Ralph Dean had a small blaze Christ- mas week in his workroom. North Broad street. He managed, however, to extinguish it unaided, although at the expense of his person. His hands in particular were badly burned, but at the time of writing were much improved. Dkcdubbb '60, 1920 The Florists^ Review 19 lumuiiiviioiRmioioioiR;^ ONE YEAR OF QUARANTINE TEDERAL BOABD'S BEFOBT. For First Year Under Quarantine 37. The annual report of the Federal Hor- ticultural Board, submitted by Chairman C. L. Marlatt to Secretary of Agricul- ture Meredith, is of especial interest this year because of the summary it gives of the first year's operation of Quarantine 37 and the result upon this country's horticultural imports. Ee- garding this subject the report says: "Quarantine 37, which applies new and important prohibitions and restric- tions on the entry into the United States of nursery stock, plants and seeds, be- came effective June 1, 1919. The fiscal year ending June 30, 1920, therefore, represents the first year's record of the enforcement of this quarantine. Under this quarantine three classes of entry are provided for: "1. Entry of fruits, vegetables, ce- reals and other plant products which are capable of propagation, intended for medicinal, food or manufacturing pur- poses, and field, vegetable and flower seeds. These classes are permitted en- try without permit or other restrictions and therefore no record has been kept by the board of such importations. "2. Nursery stock and other plants and seeds for which permit is required, but of which unlimited commercial im- portation is permitted. This class is restricted to five categories, chiefly cer- tain bulbs, fruit stocks and rose stocks and seeds of trees and ornamental shrubs for propagation. "3. Entry of any of the prohibited classes of nursery stock under special permits for the purpose of keeping the country supplied with new varieties and necessary propagating stock; in other words, for the establishment of repro- "luction enterprises in this country so that as soon as possible this country shall be independent of all foreign sup- jilies of that character. Imports of Stock Allowed Entry. "The three tables on this page re- I'ord the importations of nursery stock and other plants and seeds of which un- limited commercial importation under regulation 3 is provided for in the quar- antine under permit. The records of importations given in these tables are based on the notice of arrival visaed by the customs officers as is required un- 'ler the quarantine, and therefore rep- resent probably as accurate information '•f the plants thus imported as is obtain- able. "The first table gives a record of the importations of fruit stocks and rose -•tocks, together with country of origin. It is interesting to note that the impor- tation of fruit stocks this year represents a total of 7,856,620 plants and compares therefore favorably with the total im- portations recorded in the annual re- port for the previous fiscal year and would seem to dispose of the contention frequently made that the unavailability of foreign fruit stocks during the last fiscal year was due in any part to the refusal of the foreign growers to sell to American importers in retaliation for Quarantine 37. It is, however, a well known fact that during the last two years, owing to postwar conditions and failure of the fruit crop in France, the stock of seeds for the productien of seedlings was very low, and whatever shortage has arisen has been due to these two causes. The number of rose stocks imported this year is about the same as for last year. ' ' The second table indicates the num- ber of bulbs imported under regulation 3 of Quarantine 37. "The third table is interesting as showing the general classes of tree seeds and ornamental shrubs imported during the last fiscal year and also the countries of origin. Imports on Permit. "As already noted, provision is made in Quarantine 37 for the entry under special permit of limited quantities of otherwise prohibited nursery stock and other plants for the purpose of keeping the country supplied with new varieties and necessary propagating stock. The question of availability of plant mate- rial for which special permits are re- quested is passed upon by a committee of specialists of the bureau of plant industry. The issuance of such permits is then based on the recommendations of this committee. "Three hundred and eleven special permits were issued during the period from June 1, 1919, the date on which Quarantine 37 became effective, to June 30, 1920, a period of thirteen months. These permits included a wide range of plant materials and are each issued for a specific importation of plants. The importations authorized have already been made in the case of approximately 174 of these permits. The other permits have been canceled for a number of reasons, as a general rule because of the inability of the grower tp secure the de- sired stock or because of transportation difficulties abroad and other similar hindrances. "The material thus imported was found as a whole fairly free from dangerous insects or fungous diseases. It was, however, necessary to destroy several shipments because of the pres- ence of injurious insects which could not have been eliminated by any known treatment. In spite of the fact that emphasis has been made at all times on the necessity of bringing in plant ma- terial free of sand, soil or earth about the roots, twelve shipments were found the roots of which in whole or in part were embedded in soil. These shipments were returned to country of origin or destroyed. "A large number of special permits have been issued also for the fiscal year ending June 30, 1921. The record of these permits is not included in the table on page 20, which gives the classes of plants actually imported up to June 30, 1920, and the country of Country of origin. Apple.

Numerous other pests were collected, including scale insects, mites and ants. Port Inspection Service. "The inspection and disinfection of plants and plant products required as a condition of entry at the principal ports of the United States have been continued substantially along the lines described in previous reports. Numerous inter- strongly to the attention of Congress in connection with the estimates for the fiscal year ending June 30, 1921, and $100,000 was included in the estimates for this purpose. Of this amount, $76,- 7.56 was appropriated by Congress. The enlargement of the work under the plant quarantine act leads to a constant growth in the requirements of this port inspection service and the funds avail- able are still very inadequate to give the service and protection which is neces- sary to secure the full benefits of the plant quarantine act. Most of the in- crease granted last year will be taken up in strengthening the existing service and extensions of the service to the ports of greatest danger which it has not been possible hitherto to safe- guard. " POINSETTIA LEAVES DROPPING. I have a question about poinsettias. The leaves have partly dropped off and the roots have decayed. I have been most careful about the watering, and they have not been watered too much nor have they got too dry. I have used little manure water and what I did use was weak. The temperature dropped in the greenhouse from 65 degrees to 55 and 50 degrees for four or five nights between 6 and 7 p. m. Would that ^ the cause of this root decay and dn - ping of leaves? ::. H. G. A. — la. Sharp drops in temperature are t ■ most probable cause of your plants l ing foliage, but :-this should not afifi the roots in any way. On the mornin , after the temperature had dropped dov. ■ sharply you may have noticed how t' foliage, even though green, droop, badly. When this occurs some loss > leaves is liable to follow, unless a steat temperature thereafter is maintainc . My experience has been that one shar . drop may not do much damage, but ,: recurrence is sure to cause trouble. A bracts develop, if the temperature i gradually lowered no harm will resul . provided always that the plants at- carefully watered and not exposed t any cold drafts. C. W. HOW TO STEBIIJZE SOIL. We should like to know how to steril ize soil which is in the greenhouse. Wc have two houses, containing three beds. 7x160 feet. What we want to know i? how many lines of 1-inch pipe should be used for each bed, the size and distance apart of the holes in the pipe, how long the steam should be turned on and at what pressure. C. W. & S. — Ind. While we have seen excellent results from sterilizing soil while in place in the greenhouse beds, we should advise placing the soil in special sterilizing boxes, perhaps 8x30 feet with a depth of about two feet. As these boxes may be covered, a more thorough process of sterilization can be obtained. Whether for use in the beds described or in special frames or boxes, we sug- gest three rows of pipes about twenty- seven inches apart. One-inch pipe would answer for the short boxes, but it should be l^-inch for the first 100 feet in a greenhouse 160 feet long. To allow the steam to escape, drill %-inch holes every thirty inches. Bury the pipes to a depth of eight inches. Sterilize with about ten to fifteen pounds of steam for an hour or so after the ends of the beds have reached 150 degrees. It will be helpful if the beds can be covered with canvas, hotbed sashes, shutters or a similar covering. Instead of supplying each bed with a sterilizing system, we would suggest that the pipes be transferred from one bed to another. The cost of labor would be slight. If the pipes are left in the beds, there is danger that the steam openings will become clogged with rust. T. TEMBLETT'S TELEGRAPH IDEA. That the Pink Part of The Review has become recognized as an important part of florists' telegraph delivery service is evidenced by a recent display window staged by William H. Temblett, 10313 Euclid avenue, Cleveland, O. From the various cities on a large map in the win- dow ribbons led to small cards on which were pasted advertisements clipped from the Pink Part of The Review. The city from which the ribbon led was rep- resented at the other end by the adver- tisement from The Review of a promi- nent firm in that place. The floral display accompanying ranged from corsages to pot plants. Mrs. Temblett and Mr. Kent, the manager, state that the display brought more visitors into the store and caused more passers-by to stop and look than any previous display.

Oil of cinnamon is used with good effect in dealing with ants. Druggists also sell specific remedies for this purpose. Kerosene along the edges of the beds will turn them back, and as for the aviators, a strong dose of Nico-fume will at least make them quite sick. G. J. B. ANTS ON SWEET PEAS. I should like to ask you what can be done to get rid of a bad dose of tan ants. I have a ground bed of sweet peas and it is just full of them. Thoy come out by the thousands and are spreading to other beds. Some have wings and can fly. Please answer at once, as every day they spread farther. I tried sugar and Paris green, but they would not oat it. M. T.— Md. ' caused by the unseasonably • warm weather of the last autumn. If the plants arc in a growing con- dition, the dried leaves about the base can be ignored, but if the condition com- plained of seems to affect the growth of the plants, the bed should be promptly resown. It does not pay to worry along with sick plants of any kind in a green- house, especially when they can be a's easily replaced as sweet peas. If there is active growth, white feeding roots will be found two feet below the sur- face. Unless the soil is fundamentally wrong, planting at this date in the same soil can be safely advised. How- ever, the soil should not be used for early planting, as starting plants in the heat of the summer is working against the natural requirements of sweet peas. In their weakened condition they are easily attacked by any fungus which ac- cumulates in old soil, while the vigorous plants, produced in a lower temperature, are able to ward it off. G. J. B. ATFECTED BY BLACK LEG. I should like to know about a disease that has struck my winter-blooming sweet peas. I planted my peas from pots after having used Mulford's cul- ture on the seed. They seemed to grow well for a while, but when they were beginning to bloom all the leaves close to the ground dried up. On close exam- ination I found that the roots had suf- fered the same fate. What is the cause and the remedy? H. H. — Colo. FALL VS. SPEING PLOWING. Would you advise fall or spring plow- ing for a field that we intend to put out in hardwood cuttings? A. G.— O. The plants are probably affected with the fungus known locally as black leg, Late fall would be preferable to spring plowing, but in all probability the ground in your section is tightly frozen now. Therefore, you should plow in spring as soon as possible after the frost has left the ground and it is dry enough to be workable. W. C. n^ BEST MAIDENHAIR FERN. What do you considor the best va- riety of maidenhair fern for cutting! I have onlv one house and wish to grow the best. ■ G. W. D.— N. Y. For cutting you could have nothing better than an excellent form of Adi- aiitum cuneatum, named Croweanum. C. W. The enemios of the sweet pea seem to OLD FRONDS ON FERNS.- I am sending you a fern. Please notice the dried-up and crippled ends of the leaves and, if possible, tell me how to cure or prevent this trouble. This happens to perfectly healthy plants and seems to be due to a fungus, which spreads quite fast. G. E. B. — Mo. I do not find anything seriously the matter with the sample fern. The crip- pled and dried-up ends complained of were on the old fronds and should be removed anyway. The young growths were all right and so were the roots. I noticed a few traces of white fly on the older frondsi which should be closely looked after and removed. I should also suggest giving the plants a little more water at the roots, the soil in the center of the root ball of the plant sent being quite dry. M. P. ADIANTUM UNDER BENCHES. I have been trying to get adiantum to grow, but seedlings which I have bought, even 2Vi-inch plants, die, I have a new greenhouse and, to my sur- prise, underneath the benches have come up thick patches of adiantum — I think the cuneatum variety. I cannot imagine where the seed came from. Will you tell me the best way I can take care of these seedlings? The soil under the benches is poor and hard, but naturally moist. I greatly wish to succeed with these plants. S. J. R. — Tenn. The seedling adiantums may be lifted from the ground beneath the benches of your greenhouse and transplanted to shallow trays or flats, the most con- venient tool for the purpose being a wooden label with the end sharpened to a knife edge. With such a tool as this the seedlings may be taken up in small patches, about the size of a finger-nail, and transferred to the surface of the soil in the trays, where they should be gently pressed down. As soon as the tray is filled, it should be carefully 22 The Florists^ Review DXCEMBKB 30, 1920 watered and placed in a partly shaded place in the greenhouse. The seedlings should be protected from drafts by covering with paper during the day for a week or so, after which they may be more exposed to the air, but not to full sunshine. After the young plants have put out a leaf or two, they may be potted in small pots, but must still be protected from too much sun and air until they become established. A night temperature of 58 to 60 degrees during the winter is satisfactory to these plants and almost any light soil without manure will an- swer at this time. W. H. T. insects will be lessened. It is probable that your plants have been infested for some time and are now just showing the effects. W. H. T. NAME OF FESN.

I am sending you some fern leaves, on which you will notice small spots, which are first yellow and then brown. We grow our own ferns and have never had any trouble until last winter. Can you tell us what the remedy isf W. G.— Wis. The ferns in question are infested with fern scale, an insect that is fre- quently found on these plants. A close examination of the plants will show some of the large, light brown female insects and a much greater number of the small, white n^ale insects. The attacks of these inseots soon produce yellow spots on the foliage. Dipping and spraying with solutions of whale oil soap and nicotine seeim to be among the best methods of fighting this pest, and by cutting out some of the most seriously affected foliage the stock of NEW YORK. The Market. The prophets who predicted a poor Christmas for the flower growers saw, in • a way, their predictions verified. It cer- tainly was a poor Christmas trade if we count upon a fulfillment of growers 'hopes and the attainment of the price standard which many of them set. And right here it might be said that this price-setting is entirely out of place and conflicting with a healthy demand for perishable goods. By this is not meant a pre-Christmas quotation, for if the majority of retailers are to be believed, they could have dou- bled their sales of cut flowers if the wholesalers had quoted prices a day or two in advance. To put one case as a general example, a retailer was asked for a price on hybrid tea roses for Christmas day delivery, and he had to make a safe guess on cost, so safe that he did not get 3C 3C ac ac ^ PLANTING TABLE FOR ^ IT J i^ GIGANTEUM LILIES ^ ac ac ac THE EEVTEW receives so many queries in regard to giganteum lilies, for Easter mostly, but in some measure for other occasions, that it has endeavored to arrange a planting table, with the dates of starting, the approximate time of flowering, and the average temperature needed to bring them into bloom at various periods. Of course these dates are merely approximate; severe cold or intense heat may retard or advance plants, and long spells of dark weather will also have their effect. While some lilies do well when grown comparatively cool, the best success with giganteums is always secured when they are grown warm from the start. Moderate watering is necessary until the pots are nicely filled with roots; then an ample supply is needed. Fresh bulbs require more water at all stages of their growth than cold storage ones; they also require a longer season to come to perfection. Prom January to .Tune the small sizes of cold storage bulbs give most satis- faction; from June until early October the 7 to 9 and 9 to 10 sizes do better, while during the last three months of the year, when fresh bulbs are to be had, the larger sizes should be used. As lilies make all their best roots from the tops, and not from the bottj>ms of the bulbs, it is an advantage to start them in 4-inch pots, later shifting and burying the bulbs deeper in 6-inch pots, or to pot in 6-inch pots at once, setting the bulb well down, and, after growth has started, to give a top-dressing.

The criticism here is that while Chicago wholesalers can qurte prices a week or more ahead, New Y(.rk wholesalers cannot, and so crab th« ir own game. One wholesaler in the i p. town market ventured quotations and u a result cleaned up on everything. The Christmas buying of cut fiowi rs did not really set in until Christniris eve, retailers preferring to push plant trade to the end before speculating in out flowers, and then the buying was of a hand-to-mouth nature. With one or two exceptions, the wholesale houses wiie open all night, a certain inducement 'a small purchases. It is not learned th.it any plant-growing establishment con- ducted a night business. The rose offerings were especially fii.v'. Never before at Christmas were seen such hybrid teas as were available, but they did not get home at $150 per hun- dred as was expected, but slumped at the end to $50 or less. In contrast to this, American Beauty specials sold as high as $250. It's true, there were not many of the big rose, and a market for them is always certain. A quantity of lon^;- stemmed Premier made some nut-sized flower heads of Beauty look ridiculous in comparison. Violets were in fair supply, but there was no demand for them and Christmas morning street venders were offering them at 50 cents per hundred, despite the asking price of $2.50 the afternoon be- fore. Sweet peas met the same fate; nobody cared to handle them at $8 per hundred for the best. Carnations were not in especially large supply, and the usual Christmas prices were in force, $12 for Enchantress, $15 for Mrs. C. W. Ward and $20 for reds, these prices for best quality, of course. Cattleyas were in good supply and the best moved at $1.50 to $2 per flower. The supply this year was charac- terized by a quantity of pa8s6 flowers of a quality which really disgraced the mar- ket, and which would not move at any price. Oncidiums, held at $20 per hun dred flowers, were not in demand, al- though the quality was superfine. Lilies of the valley were in too largo supply to clear and much stock was left over. The price range was $8 to $12. with a few tops at $15. Paper White narcissi were available in great quanti ties and moved slowly at 40 to 50 cents per bunch. There was the usual quantity of cut poinsettias, but business in them was not active, and much stock was left over, as usual, for post-holiday use. About $50 per hundred flowers was the average price. Miscellaneous flower- presenting a bit of color sold fairly well. Monday, December 27, the market wa- dull, arrivals being light and trade being largely in left-overs. Prices in general went back to the pre-holiday level. The supply of roses is large, with short grades in best demand. Carnations are in light supply, but meet an equally light demand. About every orchid that could be cut evidently figured in the Saturday arrival list, so no fresh stock was to be seen Monday. Easter lilies are in small sup- ply, and command $25 per hundred flow- ers for the best. Lilies of the valley are in oversupply and moving slowly. The list of miscellaneous flowers is augmented by arrivals of Iris tectorum, Buddleia asiatica, and tulips, the latter of inferior quality in most shipments. Asparagus plumosus was in rather Decbmbbb 3b, 1920 The Florists^ Review 23 short supply and moved at $1 to $2.50 per bunch. Various Notes. A. M.

This year's was the best Christmas business this city has ever enjoyed. This is all the more remarkable in view of the great number of people out of work. There was an ample supply of plants in bloom, but the variety was limited, the plants including poinsettias, cyclamens, heather, begonias and cher- ries. Cyclamens were easily the best plants offered and sold at from $3 to $12 each. As is usually the case, more plants than cut stock were sold. The cut flowers offered included Beau- ties and other roses, violets, carnations, sweet peas, orchids, calendulas and ste- via. Roses were the most popular cut flowers and ranged in price from $5 to $12 per dozen. Violets, usually popular flowers for corsage work, at $3 per bunch of fifty, did not sell so well as formerly. Carnations retailed for $3 to $5 per dozen, the higher price being for Ward and the red varieties. Narcissi went at $2 per dozen. The prices of both plants and flowers were about the same as those a year ago. The sale of greens was good, quanti- ties of wreaths made of princess pine, boxwood and laurel being sold. Holly was scarce and high in price and not handled extensively. Baskets made of boxwood, ruscus and dry material sold unusually well. Various Notes.

SINCE the days when, as a boy, he helped his father grow vegetables, shrubs and plants in Oskaloosa, la., W. E. Kemble has been a successful florist. When he reached the age of 22 years, he took over the business, which then consisted of four small greenhouses at Oskaloosa. In 1900 these were rebuilt and the amount of glass ■was increased. In 1912 the business began its real expansion and a range in Center- ville, la., was opened. It was not long before Mr. Kemble acquired ranges at Grinnell and Chariton, la., and built grcenliouses and a store at Ottumwa. The firm was in- corporated July, 1920, under the name of the Kemble Floral Co., controlling 250.000 square feet of glass. Mr. Kemble was born October 14, 1859, at Oskaloos;i, and has lived on the same place since he was 6 years of age. poinsettias were beautifully arranged and attractively displayed. Every sal- able plant was sold by Christmas day and at a good price. More telegraph orders were sent out than ever before at this establishment. Taken as a whole, it was the best Christmas this firm ever enjoyed. Brant Bros., who do both wholesale and retail business, reported a general clean up of a good crop of roses and carnations for Christmas. Jess Williams, who makes a specialty of Christmas wreaths and decorations, had a good business. Quantities of laurel roping for store decorations was disposed of. William Gray, who still retains the firm name of Pierce & Gray although Mr. Pierce withdrew from the business some time ago, has a well located shop and a good Christmas business was reported. The Holland Gardens, on Holland avenue, had some good cyclamens, all of which were disposed of. A new de- livery car was purchased by this firm a short time ago.

WOEMS ON BEDDING PLANTS. I wish to inquire as to the best means of ridding some of my houses of a small yellow worm, from one-quarter to one- half inch long, that is working on the geranium stock plants. As soon as the plants are disturbed the worm curls up and often drops from the plant. I be- lieve these worms came from a few weeds that were not cleaned up from the edge of the walks. The houses that are affected, three in number, are stocked with geraniums, carnations -and vincas. It would be hard to reach the worms with a spray and there is too much surface to cover.

Some time ago a report was made of the work of the joint committee on vege- table nomenclature from the American Seed Trade Association and the Vege- table Growers' Association of America. As a part of the program, a detailed study of the various vegetable varieties was to be made by men best qualified to judge from their close experience with these particular crops. Twenty-one committees were ap- pointed, and we believe that in order that those interested in this work may know how to judge of the importance and the value that may be forthcoming, it is well worth wliile to have public an- nouncement made of the personnel at work on it. Members of Sub-Committees. The following men were appointed by this committee, and have signified their willingness to undertake the work. As a matter of fact, at the time of writing many committees have already made pre- liminary reports, and considerable data is in hand, which indicates real jirogress.

To desiffn.'ite the best ways and means of elimination of duplicate names ind elimination of unimportant varieties. Tt is hoped that nut of the recom- mendations of these committees can come suggestions for a working plan which will make it possible so to standardize and designate standard types that both the seedsman and commercial rrrower will have in mind the same type for the ?ame variety, at least over a Inrge section of the country. More important than this, such procedure would make it pos- sible for ])lant breed(^rs to see more clenrlv the jiroblem for im]irovement and eliminate a tremendous amount of wasted time in attempting to develop types that are already in existence, but not known. Field Trials Next Summer. The study that has already been gi\ m to this question has made it clear th;it many field trials must be undertaken in the summer of 1921 to determine whether certain so-called varieties are really dif ferent one from another. Already ses- eral of the leading seed firms of tlie United States have volunteered to carry on complete trials of certain vegetables during the coming season. For the pur- pose of perfecting plans for special 19'Jl trials for clearing up matters of uncer- tainty regarding old vegetable types an^i also for the purpose of perfecting ar rangements for the registration of new- varieties as offered, it is expected that :i second meeting of this committee will be held the third or fourth week in Feb ruary, the place and exact time to be an nounced later. Postpone Publication. It has been definitely decided not to submit a list of vegetable varieties for publication in the first edition of the variety catalogue which is being issue.l by the American Joint Committee on Horticultural Nomenclature, of which J. Horace McFarland is chairman and Har- lan P. Kelsey is secretary. Our com mittee has reached this decision at th urgent insistence of our sub-committc chairmen, who feel that, at best, thei • reports, if finally submitted at this tim> would have inaccuracies and a lack o( completeness which will be avoided aftr this summer's trials have been con pleted. It is hoped that a full and con. plete report may be submitted for publ cation with the other horticultural socit ties in their second edition, which wil no doubt, be issued about six month after the first edition. It has been a great satisfaction to ou committee to note that in the 1921 see catalogues so far received there is a vas decrease in the number of new "intvi' ductions. " This undoubtedly indicate that a different attitude is being takeu a change which can only work for bettc: conditions in the seed trade. H. F. Thomj)son, Sec'y. Francis C. Stokes, Chairman.

Social activities presage an excellent New Year's business to complete a most satisfactory holiday season. Complaints of high prices of cut flowers were most prevalent in localities where counter trade was formerly heav- iest. Richard Vincent and his estimable and widely known wife celebrated their fifty-third wedding anniversary at White Marsh, Md., December 26. Charity, runs the adage, begins at home. And so, we might remember, does education of the public in floral decora- tion. How about your store? Acknowledge receipt of telegraph or- ders promptly. A 1-cent post card is enough to reassure the sending florist of the correctness of telegraphic trans- mission. Ready-made advertising has been found by florists in the verses, "Give Them the Flowers Now," by Leigh M. Hodges, which several have reprinted from Joe Mitchell Chapell's "Heart Throbs. " Thrift docs not mean saving, but spending and spending wisely. The thrifty grower is lie who knows when to spend largely in order to get large re- turns. Unwise saving is as wasteful as prodigal spending. Those little 1-inch ads in the Pink Part are constantly attracting more re- tailers, because $1.25 a week is easily recompensed by the telegraph orders re- ceived. Nearly 700 florists arc repre- sented in that section this week. Almost a year ago the King of the Belgians bestowed upon Sir Harry J. Veitch the cross of Ofiiccr of the Order of the Crown in recognition of his serv- ices in connection with the war horticul- tural relief fund. He is now the recipi- ent of the cross of Chevalier of tlie Le- gion of Honor from the President of France. Growers of high quality stock complain the least of a poor market. There is no better rule of business conduct than the golden one. Apply it in the matter of answering inquiries and Complaints as well as in filling orders and paying bills promptly. Once in a while forget you 're the pro- prietor and walk into your store or your greenhouse as if you were a critical stranger. Sometimes you'll see things that way you never noticed before. The "Own Your Home" and "Home Beautiful" exhibitions offer opportu- nities during the spring for florists to present their wares to the public by co- operation with local furniture houses.

NATIONAL QBO WEBS' MEETING. The National Flower Growers' Asso- ciation will hold a meeting in Wash- ington, D. C, Thursday, January 27. The meeting is scheduled for 1 p. m., following a midday recess after the second session of the American Carna- tion Society meeting. The meeting is open to all growers and it is believed there will be a large attendance. However, only regularly ac- credited representatives from the perma- nently organized district locals will have the privilege to vote. Those who will be eligible are representatives from the New England, Chicago, St. Louis, Mid- West, Western New York and Cleveland locals. The principal matters for considera- tion at this meeting will be the final adoption of the constitution and by- laws, and the election of oflicers for the ensuing year. The work of national publicity and the part the growers ex- pect to take will be discussed at this meeting. Plans will also be laid for the further organization of districts. WHY SHOULDN'T THEY BE? An English contemporary makes the following statement: "It has been es- timated that $45,000,000 arc spent on cut flowers every year in the United States of America. American florists are dissatisfied, however, because they find $50,000,000 are spent on chewing gum during a similar period." SETTING THE FASHION. One of Henry Penn's best stories, so far as the moral to florists is concerned, is that of the woman customer who in- quired of a salesman in a jeweler's store if scarf pins were in vogue. Upon his declaration that they were, she re- marked that he, who ought to be in ac- cord with latest jewelry style, wore none. Mr. Penn's moral is that florists should set flower styles, and if thov would have other business men wear boutonnieres, florists should themselvig wear a flower on their coat lapel, cf- pecially in their own stores. Many of the trade are cateful to do this. Many more might be. IN BUSINESS WINDOWS. Walking down a business street re- cently, an observer noted flowers — live flowers, not artificial — used ia the decorations of six windows. They were those of a milliner, a tailor, a res- taurant, a novelty store, a phonograph shop and an automobile salesroom. That was an exceptional street, but it indi- cated what might be done to develop a steady, year-around trade.- It is to be noted that this was in the month of December, when there was no glut of fiowers. These blooms were not gifts to the store proprietors; they were paid for in hard cash by business men who estimated that their decorative value was worth the price in attracting trade. In various cities retailers alive to their opportunities have built up a re- spectable addition to their sales by do- ing missionary work among their busi- ness neighbors. The standing orders for so many dollars' worth of flowers each day or each week are easy to han- dle and therefore lucrative. With slight effort every retailer could add a little to his profits in this way. ' 'BETTEB AMEBICAN HOMES." We, as florists, have a direct interest in the success of every movement for the betterment of home life, as each step in that direction brings new cus- tomers into our stores. Also, we are interested when some other industry follows in our footsteps, as the furni- ture trades ' associations are doing. They have just organized for publicity pur- poses and are preparing to launch a campaign with "Better American Homes" as the slogan. We wish them success, but at the same time we con- gratulate ourselves on our own great good fortune in possessing that un- matchable slogan, "Say It with Flow- ers." Our furniture friends are a long way from equaling that. STILL AT THE OLD STAND.

December 80, 1920 The Florists^ Review 27 OBITUARY Joseph Meehan. The death of Joseph Meehan, of Philadelphia, formerly a nurseryman aid a prolific writer on horticultural and landscape topics, occurred December 23 ai his home, 121 Pleasant avenue. Mount Airy, Pa. He was 80 years of age. The deceased planned many of the Ifiudscape effects on the large suburban estates near Philadelphia. He was an expert adviser in landscape problems for Thomas Meehan & Sons, German- town, Pa., now managed by S. Mendel- son and P. Franklin Meehan, sons of his brother, Thomas Meehan. Joseph Meehan was born at Eyde, Isle of Wight, England, November 9, 1840. He went to work in the Gardens of St. Clare, Isle of Wight, where his father was gardener for over fifty years. In April, 1859, he came to America to take charge of the small greenhouses of his brother, Thomas Meehan, who had started a nursery at Germantown a few years previously. After a connection of fifty-two years with that enterprise, he retired from nursery work; in that time the nursery had grown from the original three acres to about seventy acres, being since conducted under the name of Thomas Meehan & Sons. He was well known as a nurseryman, but even more widely known as a writer on horticultural subjects, being one of the best authorities on shrubs in America. August 13, 1862, he enlisted in the One Hundred and Eighteenth Corn Ex- change regiment, was wounded at Shep- herdstown, W. Va., September 20, and was discharged the following winter. In June, 1863, he enlisted in Landis' Battery of Light Artillery; he was taken prisoner and paroled after the Battle of Gettysburg. He was sadly afflicted in the last few years in being deprived of his sight; this, in addition to the loss of his hear- ing, which was never good, left him in a particularly sad condition. He is survived by two sons, Charles E. Meehan, wholosalo florist of Philadel- phia, and A. Eothwell Moehan, and one daughter, Mrs. George W. Williams. Funeral services were hold at the late residence of Mr. Meehan, iL'l Pleasant avenue, December "27. Augustus P. Calder, Sr. In the passing, December 23, of Augustus P. Calder, Sr., after a brief illness, the oldest of Boston florists was removed, one who was well, widely and favorably known and who, throughout his long and active life, made and re- tained a large circle of friends. Born on the old Calder estate in Roxbury, in 1837, at that time a large farm, the de- ceased had seen more of the growth and development of Boston's florists' ndustry than any other man. He mar- ried Miss Etta A. Upton, the wedding being of a military character on ac- count of Mr. Calder 's prominence in the Roxbury Horse Guards, of which he was captain. Six children were born, of whom five survive. A. P. Calder, Jr., is connected with the Newtonville Con- servatories. Mrs. Calder passed away seven years ago. For many years Mr. Calder conducted a large retail store on Boylston street, where the Hotel Touraine now stands, and later in the Hotel Pelham, now re- placed by the Little building. Of late years, though not conducting a store, he handled many floral orders, particu- larly for various lodges with which he was prominently identified, and the week of his' death he visited the whole- sale markets to make purchases, appar- ently in his usual good health. Mr. Calder was one of the oldest/' members of ^the Massachusetts Horti-* cultural Society, joining it as long ago as 1870. He was a charter member of the Gardeners' and Florists' Club of Boston, serving • as vice-president in 1887 and 1888, as president in 1890, the year the S. A. F. held its convention in Boston, and as a member of the execu- tive committee in 1889 and 1891. He was extremely active in the work con- nected with the 1890 convention and had been an S. A. F. member for a long period. The deceased was particularly elo- quent and on that account was often in demand as a post-dinner orator and toastmaster at various functions. He performed the installation ceremonies for officers of the Gardeners' and Flo- rists' Club in a manner which always delighted the members, and this body will particularly miss his genial presence. Mr. Calder was a veteran of the Civil war and was at Gettysburg with the Roxbury Guards, although he did not take active part in that great battle. The late Jackson Dawson was a private in his company. Only a few days ago he was elected president of the Roxbury Historical Military Association and at a recent meeting in the Commonwealth armory, held for tlit' piirnoso of form- ing a reorganization of the Horse Guards and allied bodies, he was the only person who was able to give neces- sary data. He was prominent in Masonic circles and was associate prelate of Joseph Warren Commandery K. T., and a mem- ber of Washington Lodge A. F. and A. M., of the Red Men and other bodies. Funeral services were held December 26 at the Universalist church, Buena Vista street, Roxbury, and were largely attended. Many of his old confreres in florists'. Masonic and other circles were present and there was a veritable wealth of floral tributes. W. N. C. Ferdinand H. Teute. The death of Ferdinand H. Teute occurred at his rosidencc, 12 Hoeltzer street, Rochester, N. Y., Monday, Decem- ber 27, at the age of 82 years. He is survived by his wife and four children. Three years ago he underwent an opera- tion and had been ill most of the time since. He was born in Saxony, Germanv, and after several years' experience in the florists' business he started in a small way for himself at Nidda, Obei-hessen. Germany, at the age of 34 years. He continued in a successful way for eighteen years; then he decided to come to America with his family. In 1890 he went to Rochester, N. Y. and was employed by Bausch & Lomb for a pe- riod of two years. He then started in the florists' business in that city and had continued until the time of his death. He married Miss Margaret Reitz forty-nine years ago. There are four children living, two of whom, Hugo and Richard, are florists in Rochester, each having his separate business. Mr. Teute was one of the best known- old-time residents in Rochester. He was in liis earlier days connected with sev- eral German societies and was a char- ter member of the Rochester Florists' Association. The funeral was held December 30 at 3 p. m. Interment was at Mount Hoi)e cemetery. H. J. H. CHICAGO. The Market. There is more than the normal varia- tion in the Christmas trade reports this year. Some wholesale houses ruefully confess that they are a considerable dis- stance behind the record of 1919, while others report increases that range all the way from slight to as much as fif- teen per cent. A sincere effort to ar- rive at a fair estimate of the Christmas business in this market this year leads to the belief that on the whole the re- sult for wholesalers was practically the same as in 1919, while the retail end of the business suffered some decrease. The wholesalers seem more than satis- fied; the results achieved apparently are better than they had expected. On the other hand, the retailers are less well pleased, their business having been attended by great uncertainty, by a last- minute rush that overtaxed their facil- ities and by a sudden fall in tempera- ture which made delivery slow and ex- pensive. They would not be pleased with the outcome except that nearly all of them seem to have enjoyed a better Christmas trade than did their neigh- bors in other lines of business. Most of the retailers came somewhere near equaling last year's record total and apparently few of them had hopes of doing so much. There were few pot plants and they bought cautiously on cut flowers. It is the unanimous report of the wholesalers that shipping demand was stronger than the city demand. Nearly all the wholesalers say they had a larger number of orders than ever before, Isut that the orders did not average so large as last year. They all saw the disposi- tion on the part of the buyers to order only limited quantities of the higher- priced flowers, though quality was de- manded everywhere. The Christmas business was done principally with roses. No other flower was in normal Christmas supply. It is probable there were more roses than this market ever before had for Christ- mas. But there was only a fraction of the usual number of carnations, and vio- lets were in nothing like the supply fre- quently available. In a general way there was a clean-up. Many houses could have used more stock, even of roses, while the shipping was going on, but these same houses nearly all liad roses left when they closed about noon on Christmas; it was the close-cut stock received Christmas eve and Christmas morning. A few houses had more long roses than they could dispose of, but most of the unsold stock was seconds. This year there was a larger percentage of fancy long roses than ever before, but many growers were just a little early with their crops and cut an un- usual proportion of seconds, which buy- ers did not care to handle even at mate- rial price concessions. There were so few Beauties that they sold clean, prac- tically every good flower bringing $1.50.

Waba«h Ave., CHICAGO 34 The Florists^ Review Decejiuek 30, I'Jiiii ing booked no orders themselves, placed no orders. There were hardly any- sweet peas. It was the scarcity of carnations which cut the biggest hole in the Christ- mas sales, and even at that there were carnations which went to waste; some of the growers had held their stock back until it was in such condition no one would buy it. Happily, there was not much of this. The supply of poinsettias was much smaller this year than last, with the re- sult they sold cleaner than last season. "White flowers never are in strong de- mand for Christmas and Paper Whites, Eomans, Easter lilies and callas ex- perienced no special rise in price, but sold nearly clean. The Christmas supply of pot plants was limited, both in quantity and vari- ety. Many of the smaller stores made little attempt to handle cut flowers, 'buying only after they had taken orders, but the scarcity of pot plants forced the larger stores to take up cut flowers in a stronger way than they have in re- cent years. It is r&ported that some of the retail stores had stock left, both plants and cut flowers, but the way the market opened December 27 indicated that the retailers must nearly all have been pretty well cleaned out. The sup- ply of stock this week is larger than had been expected, in view of the cold weather and the closeness with which everything was cut before Christmas. The brighter weather has improved the quality and there is a general feeling that Christmas was good enough to lend confidence to the view that January will be another prosperous month in the trade. Various Notes. "With three rooms on the second floor of the Palmer House, Mangel was able to handle expeditiously a Christmas business that rivaled last year's record. Cut flowers sold remarkably well, while plants were cleaned out. A special order of 150 poinsettia plants was re- ceived the following Monday, to be used for decorations of the Chicago City bank banquet at the Hamilton Club that evening. Pot coverings have much to do with the sale of plants at Christmas, in the estimation of Walter W. Adams, and some novel and attractive arrangements were to be seen at his store, at State and Division streets. Paul E. Weiss and C. J. Michclsen and their wives expect to leave January 16 to spend a few days with E. C. Amling, at Sawtelle, Cal. Andrew Chronis forsook liis place at the office of the Eaklios restaurants to oversee the big Christmas business of the Alpha Floral Co. the latter half of the week. Orders were less numerous, but were of larger amounts than a year ago, and the total was not far from last year's. P. C. Schupp left Miami, Fla., Decem- ber 20. where the thcrmoniptcr regis- tered 85 degrees, and arrived in Chicago Christmas eve, to find the temperature 10 degrees. Mr. Schupp enjoyed the warmth, but Mrs. Schupp prefers Chi- cago's climate. "That's the way they come!" "Thev" referred to twenty cards left by one customer, each to accompany a Christmas gift of a dozen roses, a not unusual order at the store of the E. Wienhoeber Co. during the days pre- ceding Christmas. Despite the cold weather, a large stock of plants was dc- The Sign of Servici START THE NEW YEAR RIGHT with PYFER'S FLOWERS Premier, Columbia and Russell Per lOO Short $ 8.00® $10.00 Medium 12.00 @ 15.00 Long 20.00 @ 25.00 Extra Long 30.00 @ 35.00 Ophelia, Sunburst, Hearst, Maryland and White Killarney Per loo Short $ S.OO @ $10.00 Medium 12.(V) (^ 15.00 Long 20.0<) Milady, Hoosier Beauty and Montrose Limited Stock Per lOiJ Short $10.00 @ $12.00 Medium 16.00 @ 20.00 Long 25.00 @ 25.00 Carnations Per lOO Choice, faucy, assorted $8.00 @ 12.0l:uit sold. l»iit tlicy had a few cut iiowcrs left, iiavinp; bought heavily. At wholesale, valley was priced lower than last year, but there was a much larger supjily. Mr. Bruns himself noted a sharp decrease in tlie call for corsage bouquets and is at a loss to account for it, as he sold one every chance he got. It was Edward Enders' thirty-third Christmas with »'. A. Samuelson. He began as boy and a few months ago be- came president of the company, illus- trating again the old saying that "all things come to him Avho waits and works. ' ' Anton Then celebrated his sixty-sixth Ijirthday anniversary on Christmas day. He came to Chi, with white trailing in the rear. Cattleyas sold surprisingly well at all the way from $1 to $2 each. The former wore Percivaliana, tlie latter Triana>. There were some vandas and oncidiums, but tho Imyers did not consider the fancy cyprijicdiums good value. All the miscellaneous flowers sold well accord- ing to tlieir several degrees of excel- lence except Narcissus Pa])er White, which was enormously overdone, and Stevia scrrata. Asparagus was also in oversupply. The feature of the plant market was the demand for cyclamens, which met with strong support, and for oranges and poinsettias, which were short. Really good jilnnts were extremely scarce. There were a good many poor ones. Taken all in all, tho business for Christmas was most satisfaotciry in the quality of the stock offered. The tim- ing was better, far better, than usual, and there was much less holding, the greatest of all holiday evils. The Outlook. It so chanced that there were a few spare moments in the busy oflice of the Third floor of the Bulletin building, where so many florists find their way, During the month of January We look forward to an ample supply of CUT FLOWERS AND WE OFFER BEAUTIES of a very fine quality, A good supply every day and on short notice we can furnish almost any quantity.

"I think," Mr. Liggit replied, "that, should the move- ment pontinue, roses will in time beeonic less profitnble than other flowers. There must be variety. Take, for example, the case of the rose, Columbia. Everybody is growing Columbia today. All the stores liavc it. A customer who wants roses doesn't always want Columbia, lie may want a red rose or a white or a yellow. He may even prefer a different shade of pink. To my mind Butterfly is a more beautiful pink rose than Co- lumbia, but, of course, that is only an individual opinion.

With us business is active. We feel that our employees have found it an effort to make ends meet at the present high cost of living. Until we are satisfied that our employees can live comfortably on leas money, we shall not ask them to accept a reduction in salaries. The company does ask," Mr. Brunswick continued, "that each em- ployee do his or her best, because on this largely depends the company's abil- ity to maintain a fair, living wage scale." Various Notes. Sydney H. Bayersdorfer says that the shortage in natural greens created an unusual demand for prepared foliage. Alexander B. Scott has gone to Summerville, S. C. Mr. Scott's trip south was deferred until later than usual, owing to the fine weather. Casper Wister Haines has succeeded R. F. Welch as treasurer of the Ger- mantown Horticultural Society. Alvin Harvey & Sons, of Brandywine Summit, Pa., expect to increase their planting of Madame Butterfly roses. Robert Craig writes that he will have the finest greenhouse in the West Indies. W. F.

The sum of $5,000 has been contributed by the Massachusetts, New York and Pennsylvania horticultural so- cieties, one-third each. It is hoped to raise that much more through private subscription. T.

Poinsettias sold at from $2 to $12 per pot or pan, but there was a large surplus this year, more being grown than ever before. There was a ^reat sale of solanums, particularly Cleveland. At one time a shortage of orange plants seemed probable, but a considerable number were unsold. These sold at $5 to $15 each. There was a good call for primulas, ericas, camellias and other plants, as well as ferns, fern dishes and other decorative plants. A few pans of hyacinths and tulips ap- peared, but no freesias. There were con- siderable numbers of plants unsold, but everything considered, it was a .satis- factory Christmas. The weather all through Christmas week was ideal, with clear skies and no low temperatures until Christmas night, when the mercury tumbled to near the zero mark. The Market. Business since Christmas has been a little dull. Prices on roses and carna- tions are well m.aintained. There is a surplus of stevia. Paper Whites and lilies, and mums are out of the way for the season. Violets and sweet peas are quite scarce, owing to the colder weather. Club Meeting. Coming, as it did, December 21, near Christmas, there was a good attendance at the meeting of the Gardeners' and Florists' Club, when officers were elected and W. H. Elliott lectured on California. One new member was elected. It was voted to hold a banquet in Horticultural hall early in February, details to be left in the hands of the executive committee.

Annoiincenient was inatlo of the big series of uni(>n meetings to start in Horticultural hall February 7, in which the chib w(jiil(l participate and J. Otto Thilow would be its lecturer. It was announced that a ladies' night would be held in January, when officers arc to be installed. Officers for 1921 were elected as fol- lows: President, William II. Judd; vice- president, Harold A. Ryan; secretary, William N. Craig; treasurer, James Metliven; executive committee, Andrew K. Rogers. Walter H. Golby, John L. Russell. George W. Hamer and Patrick W. Burke. A collection of Christmas plants from the W. W. Edgar Co. was the only ex- hibit of the evening. William II. Elliott was the lecturer of the evening and for two hours hold the close interest and attention of the mem- bers while he described his 30-day trip to the high Sierras in California, illus- trated by numerous beautiful stereopti- con slides specially prepared for the oc- casion. The views and description of the beautiful lakes, canyons and snow- covered peaks, scaled at elevations from 13,.'j00 to 14,501 feet, were most interest- ing. The parly used the Muir pass, named in honor of .lohu Muir, the great naturalist of the Sierras. i\Iany humor- ous anecdotes were told and the lecture was thoroughly enjoyed bj' everyone. Mention, in conclusion, was made of the big trees iu Sequoia grove and Humboldt county. An yithusiastic vote of thanks to the lecturer concluded the meetings of the year. Various Notes. At the last meeting of Z\Iiddlosex Lodge, A. V. and A. M., of Framingham, William Nicholson, Sr., who for twenty- five consecutive years had filled the post of treasurer, a longer period of service than any other member had attained since the lodge's institution in 1795, was ]ircsented with a handsome past-mas- ter's apron. Some thirty years ago Mr. Nicholson was master of this lodge and initiated the writer of these notes into the mysteries of Freemasonry.

At his funeral services florists and Masonic and military bodies were large- ly represented. At Peiin's, Christmas business fell about ten per cent below that of 1919. Roses were the leaders in cut flowers, with cyclamens, begonias and poinset- tias among pot plants. George W. Hamer, the courteous as- sistant manager of the Flower Exchange, sufTered a painful injury December 21 when returning home from the annual meeting of the Gardeners' and Florists' Club. He was struck a hard blow above the left eye by an iron pipe protruding from a truck, which he did not see, and several stitches were necessary. He is progressing satisfactorily. (h-owers of pot plants report excellent sak's, but tliey have a larger surplus than a year ago, especially of poinset- tias, which were heavily overdone, per- haps due to last year's shortage. A large number of cyclamens and begonias were unsold, but there is a market for these after the holidays, while poinsettias are a dead loss. The Symphony Flower Shop, on Hun- ■tington avenue, had a good Christmas business. Among others it had decora- tions or large orders from the Christian Science church.

No firm handles more fine specimen ])lants or lnt(li-};ra(lo cut flowers than Galvin's, and tlu; crowded condition of the two stores last week attested their popularity. The trade learns with much regret of the serious illness of Herbert W. Schlaff- horst, secretary-attorney of the commit- tee organized some time ago to secure a modification of Quarantine 37. Mr. Sclilaffhorst, who was not naturally of a rugged constitution, worked hard and faithfully to secure necessary data to place before the F. H.

Tlic '(.iiiinittee of tlie American Seed Trade Association and the correspond- ing committee of the Association of Offi- cial Seed Analysis of North America, appointed to distuss uniformity of state seed laws, conferred ^Monday evening, December L'7. at the Congress hotel, Chicago. Three subjects were up for discussion: .Some suggested amend- ments to the jirojiosed uniformity seed bill for field seeds: the (]uestion of fed- eral legislation for the control of inter- state shijiments, and the ])roiiosed uni- form seed bill for v<'getable seed legis- lation. The latter two subjects were discussed only in a general Avay and wore left until some future date for further con- sideration. The main part of the evening was spent in discussing the amend- ments to the proposed uniformity seed bill for held seeds. Several amend- ments were agreed upon, and the two committees agreed to submit them to their respective associations, who could then act upon the reports of the com- mittees as they s.tw fit.

Conditions in Holland and in the rest of Europe have turned to- ward America the thoughts of many houses which heretofore have sold their bulbs only in P^urope. Numerous con- cerns are sending men here this year for the first time and older exporters to the I'uited States are sending stronger dele- gations of salesmen than in other years. The advance guard arrived in November, not counting the resident representa- tives, who st;iy here all the year around. On the Nieuw Amsterdam, wliich reached New York just before Christmas, there were fourteen bulb salesmen and it may be a matter of note that more than half of them were in the first cabin. The Rotterdam is due to dock within a few days with more than thirty bulb trav- elers on board.

Decembeb 30, 1920 The Rorists' Review 61 ALEXANDER'S DAHLIAS FIELD-GROWN ROOTS For Florists and Seedsmen The popularity of the Dahlia is steadily on the increase and you should try these specially selected cut-flower varieties offered below: FRANK A. WALKER (New Dpcoratlve Dahlia). A charming shade of lavender-pinlt. with long stiff steins. Produces its flowers in abundance; an exceptionally early bloomer. Good divisions $3.50 per dozen, $25.00 per 100. MADONNA (New 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 ItR value, especially when made-up in floral work. The form of the flower la perfectly originBl. each petal curling and twisting in a very pleasing manner. An excellent cut-flower variety. Strong divlnions $2.00 per dozen, $15.00 per 100. MAUDE ADAMS (New Show Dahlia). A pure snowy white, very daintily overlaid and suffused the sweetest shade of rose-pink imaginable. It is the best of my introductions for florists' use. "Maude Adams" is the most proliflc Dahlia of its color, being more than twice as free-flowering as either "NVrnphaea" or "Sylvia." It has good stems and is an early Dahlia to blossom, continuing throughout 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 the country, Raymond Champe of Michigan finding It his best commercial variety. I can furnish strong divisions at $3.S0 per dozen. $20.00 per 100. MINA BURGLE (Decorative Dahlia). The finest scarlet Dahlia to my knowledge. Flow- ers of large size, produced in quantity, on long, wiry stems, well above the foliage. Good divisions $1.50 per dozen, $12.00 per 100. BIANCA. A new Hybrid Cactus Dshlia of large size and splendid form. Coloring is a beautiful rose-lilac with white shadings and blooms are held perfectly erect on very long, stiff stems. $5.00 per dozen, $40.00 per 100. LATONA. An unusual blending of buff and yellow shades, giving a total effect of the Autumn tint that has become so popular. The type is Peony-Decorative, with long petals and nearly full to the center. Fine stems and free-flowering. $5.00 per dozen, $35.00 per 100. If you are interested In cut-flower varieties, I will be pleased to recommend you the best varieties in the colors you want, and will give your communication the beneflt of my twenty-six years an a Dahlia Specialist.

The reason why llollnml is canvassing America so assiduously this year is found in the depressed condition of bulb business throughout Europe and the largely increased stocks in Holland in the preceding two seasons. It is neces- sary to find an outlet for greater quan- tities of bulbs than ever before. GARDEN SEED SHIPMENTS.

Annual Tales of Woe. This was the greatest Christmas sea- son in the history of our business. There were all sorts of "tales of woe" to lis- ten to, and the first of these was the high prices that had to be paid for stock. In many instances I was told that it would be impossible for the re- tailer to realize 100 per cent gross profit on his stock. Now, in a retail store it takes only a simple process of arith- metic for any man to learn that unless he realizes this gross profit the sooner he gets into some other business the bet- ter it will be for him. For the grower to ascertain the actual cost of produc- tion of his stock may be more diffi- cult, yet it is just as necessary as for the retailer to know his actual over- head expenses. The latter are, in a man- ner, fixed charges which have to be paid for the service you render to the pub- lic, and unless you are a philanthropist and fall back on your bank roll, there is just one place from which the money to pay these charges and a margin of profit may come, and that is the retailer's 100 per cent gross profit. Of course, there is the alternative to reduce the overhead by cutting the service. We are all fa- miliar with this in one-armed lunch- rooms, but I am afraid that service of this kind would not do in any up-to-date florist's store. Up-to-the-Minute Delivering. One of the principal items of service for the florist's establishment is an up- to-the-minute delivery system. No store should be without a well organized ship- ping department, and my experience has been that it is good business to have one of the most efficient men in charge of this department. Just after Christ- mas the troubles you have had in get- ting the stock delivered after it was sold will be fresh in your memory. The writer has seen many a cold Christmas and windy Easter, and is fa- miliar with frozen and broken plants and continual complaints, and making good damaged orders after a big rush is CHLIKC"*' ' 7S5 FIFTH AVENUE ' 'wS* Uct ,i.a«U, an<< 4l4(.rtitcr> in fild'X^ -tdam, iiiniwi of e)tvery.

The question of affiliation with local horticultural organizations came up once more, and arrangement was made that in 1921 no reduced rate of membership would be accepted from aflBliated mem- bers, but that it would be urged upon local societies to join the society in a group, and in order to encourage them to do this the American Rose Society would for every group of ten to fifty members, return the sum of 50 cents per member to the local organization, to be used for the purpose of encouraging rose growing in the community; that for every group of fifty to 100 members, 75 cents per member should be paid back to the organization, and for every group over 100, $1 per member. It is hoped that through this plan many small or- ganizations throughout the country will be encouraged to join the American Rose Society. Professor Corbett brought up the sub- ject of the dissemination, by the society, of the Dr. Van Fleet roses. As pre- viously reported, the Department of Agriculture is anxious that these roses W. & T. CASS Geneva, N. Y. Telegraph Orders Promptly Filled in Western New York Heelas Flower Store JAMESTOWN, N.

The matter of enlisting the aid of the American Rose Society was brought up some time ago, and at this meeting it was officially discussed from all angles and was finally turned over to a committee with power to act. All rose growers will look forward with great interest to what can be done, for the name Van Fleet attached to a rose at once guarantees its value. The matter of the incorporation of the American Rose Society was again dis- cussed and it was decided that it would be to the best interest of the society to incorporate it as soon as possible. Prizes Offered for Rose Show. An invitation from the Massachu- setts Horticultural Society to cooperate in the rose show to be held in Boston in April, 1921, was read and referred to a special committee for definite ac- tion. In this connection two gold medals have already been offered by members of the trade in the name of the American Rose Society, and it is hoped that other medals will be forthcoming shortly.

There was a good supply of splendid stock; not enough of some lines to go around, but by slight changes all orders were fairly well taken care of.

BAUMER MASONIC TEMPLE Member Florists' Telegraph Delivery Ass'n from $25 to $.")0 per hundred. The main call was for roses at about $30 per hun- dred, which made this grade scarce; yet all grades cleaned up well. American Beauties held at $18 per dozen and, while there was not a big supply, there was enough for the demand. Carnations were in fine supply, except fcir red. There is always a big demand for this color and it could not be supplied. White and pink were never seen in finer quality and cleaned up well. Sweet peas were fine. More could have been used, but this opportunity was met by sub- stituting other stock. Violets gave the most concern. These were scarce and by no means enough to meet the situa- tion. Paper Whites were in larger sup- ply than most other flowers on the mar- ket r.nd as all the other lines ran short these were used in most places. Orchids were in fair supply and, as was the case with all gi'ades of fancy stock, there was enough to meet the demand. All miscellaneous stock cleaned up well. In fact, +iie riarket in general cleaned up and, all told, was quite satisfactory. Members of the trade all seemed satis- fied, for they had all the business they could handle, and the remark most heard was, "A wonderful Christmas." December 22 the weather was of the !Mareh variety. At night there was as heavy a rain storm as had been seen all season, December 23 broke fair; by noon it was as balmy as a spring day, and the Christmas rush was on for the LOUISVILLE KENTUCKY 'i'ine Flowers and Efficient Sert" ice have distinguished this house for nearly forty years.

At Mary Johnston's tlie plants were cleaned up early, and never had tliis firm shown a finer line. The made-up baskets were cleaned up fast. Cut flower orders surpassed all expectations. This firm's church decorations took every decorating plant in stock. Mrs. Johnston said that it would be impossi- ble for her, with the present staff and limited room, to take care of more busi- ness, and yet she had the use of the plant house opposite the store. At Robert L. Graham's two stores plants were all gone when the writer arrived and the entire staff was busy getting out the cut flower orders and corsage bouquets.

Christmas Business. Cliristmas business was unusually heavy, especially in plants. Most of the trade filled their stores completely with plants, due to the shortage of cut flow- ers and the high prices on them. There was a good supply of poinset- tias, cyclamens, primulas and Cleveland cherries in the market to take care of all demand. All stock was cleaned up in good shape. The weather throughout Decem- ber was particularly bad for the supply of cut flowers. There was little sun- shine during the last three weeks and the weather was unusually dark. This caused a light cut of roses and prac- tically put out of the market sweet peas and violets, of which there is generally a good supply here for Christmas. Carnations were in fair supply, but with brighter weather there would have been plenty. The weather turned cold just before Cleveland, O. Ilowcrs 10515 Superior Ave. 8 STORES Penonal Attention.

Trade packet, 50c. and a glance at the lower floor, where sold orders were arranged for several days before Christmas, showed that an enormous business had already been done. Baskets, pots and all kinds of decorative material were being made up and rapidly disposed of. Taken all in all, the holiday season there must have been a remarkably good one. Albert Goldenson had a store filled to repletion with pots, baskets and other decorative material, good cyclamens be- ing specially prominent. Tassano & Son were busy all through the week before Christmas, and several days before the big event Tony said he had had to stop taking orders. Westrem Garland Florists made a fine bid for their first Christmas business with a well filled and most attractive store. An unusually good shipping season is the report from S. Murata & Co. Some extra fine poinsottias were no- ticed among the holiday offerings of O. C. Saake at his West Fourth street store. H. B. R. SAN FBANCISCO, CAL. The Market. All over central California the rain- fall recently has been considerably more than normal. In addition to the rain it has been unusually cold, and gray days replaced for a time the pro- verbial sunny California. The result has been a scarcity of outdoor stock. Frequently in this section of California the weather does not really break until after Christmas and the late mums and other outdoor stock are on hand for the holiday season. The market for Christmas was cleaned up early, with many would-be pur- chasers without flowers. Roses, in spite of their high prices, sold swiftly and carnations were quickly seized by eager buyers. Particularly were red carna- tions in demand, both in the local stores and for shipments. Violets were fairly plentiful, but the demand absorbed them all. Freesias and narcissi were of goo3 quality. Poin- settias, especially in pots, were plenti- ful and of good quality. The cut poin- Some Specials POINSETTIAS, VIOLETS, SPENCER SWEET PEAS. RED RUSCUS FOR BASKET WORK.

There was an unusually abundant supply of English holly, with large berries. The California Christmas berries were also excellent, as a result of the rain and cold. Pepper berries were shown considerably and the prod- ucts of the evergreen California woods were in evidence, especially redwood boughs with cones and buds. Potted plants were abundant, particularly the dwarf azaleas, begonias, primulas and poinsettias. Begonias were plentiful, although some of the florists reported a scarcity. There were some Jerusalem cherries in the market. Shipping busi- ness was good. Various Notes. Every florist in San Francisco put his Current Price List CUT FLOWERS EFyEOTIVK JANUARY 2, 1921.

Their stocks of plants included poinsettias, begonias, Japanese azaleas, in every shade of red and pink, cycla- mens and primulas. Quantities of pot- ted heather plants were to be seen and some of the stores had banks of heather bloom. Ferns, berries and wreaths were abundantly displayed and these, with the roses, carnations, a few late mums, freesias, etc., added richness to the displays. "The flower business this season did not seem to be affected by the stagna- tion that was felt in other lines," said Mrs. R. E. Darbee. "When prices of many commodities jumped up, those of flowers were not advanced in propor- tion. The other commodities then took a slump, but people did not do the usual buying. Many of them turned to flow- ers for gifts. The result was that the florists had a splendid holiday trade." Mrs. Darbee added to the holiday at- tractiveness of some of her potted poin- settias by putting clever little figures of Father Christmas on the branches. One of her windows showed a regular tree of English holly. C. Kooyman & Co. had one of the most brilliant holiday displays in the city. It consisted of potted plants, masses of ferns, heather and berries, all attractively arranged. General A. J. Gooch shipped some of the last mums of the season for the holidays. His growers are sending J. A. Axell a number of fine freesias. He had an at- tractive window display of Jerusalem cherries last week. Roses and freesias are coming in from the nurseries of the E. W. McLellan Co., although the plantings were made for the big crops to begin arriving about the middle of January. "Roses are scarce now, but will be scarcer then," was the prediction made by this com- pany. Domoto Bros, state that roses were high for Christmas, but moved well. They had good roses and potted plants from their nurseries and found business excellent. Enomoto & Co. had excellent freesias and narcissi from their nurseries. Their shipments of California Christmas ber- ries were made to all parts of the coun- try. The United Flower & Supply Co. coaxed the late mums successfully and had an attractive display of outdoor flowers, ranging from tiny pompons to good-sized blooms. This firm imported some hand-painted lotus sets from Japan.

The Misses Hannon put on ten extra girls during the Christmas rush to keep up with the demand for their miniature redwood wreaths. These small tributes from the California woods have been sent to Europe, Canada, Asia and other distant points, and it seems impossible to make the supply meet the demand.

Early Christmas week buying gave promise of developing into something far bigger than had been anticipated by local florists during the several weeks preceding. At the same time, it was noticeable that early buyers were more interested in plants than cut flowers, and that the idea of economical pur- chasing was more prominent in the minds of the buyers than in previous years. The early sales of holly and mistletoe were splendid, and the shipping trade was probably better this year than for any season in recent years. There was •also a fine demand for cedar roping. Sales of these Hues were made as far east as the Mississippi river, and in mar- kets which have hitherto been un- touched by northwest shippers.

This condition was es- pecially true of the late Bonnaffon mums. As for carnations, both quantity and quality left something to be desired. Portland, Ore., and California were both drawn on to meet local needs. Eoses were generally of good color, but the cut was not sufficient to meet the trade needs and liberal California shipments were noted. Columbia from local growers made probably the best showing, with Eussell, Premier, Francis Brunner and Ward also showing. There was some increase in the supply of orchids and bouvardias were chiefly used with this flower because of the extreme scarcity of valley. Potted poinsettias and dwarf orange trees were probably the leaders in sea- sonable offerings, while tulips and cyclamens ranked close seconds in popu- lar favor. One of the Second avenue shops had an excellent showing of orange trees. The demand for tulips throughout was for the brighter-colored varieties. Paper Whites were used in several window decorations along with these flowers. There has been a splendid business in store decorations this year, and local traders say they expect to see a regular increase each year in this class of busi- ness. One of the department stores used three large Christmas trees at its main entrances, in addition to window and interior decorations. A novelty offer- ing for Christmas week was the first potted hyacinths of the season, and these were snapped up as fast as offered. There was a nice sale of artificial flow- ers all through the season, but less stock of this sort is being used than in recent seasons. This is considered a good thing by the trade, since there are greater business possibilities in the development of a steady sale of fresh flowers. Various Notes. A splendid all-around business was re- ported by the Hollywood Gardens for the Christmas season. Tliis establish- ment made a specialty of its baskets and had several new and unusual combina- tions on display. The cut from the greenhouses was still short of the firm's requirements. The work of remodeling Kenncy's Home of Flowers has been completed, except for the visit of the painters, and this work will not be completed until after the holidays. This store made the first showing for this season of Proser- pine tulips and had no difficulty in dis- posing of all the stock. The Seattle Fern & Moss Co. in the first two days of Christmas week shipped out several tons of holly and cedar roping. There was a steady call for ferns as well.

Will you please inform me what would be the proper time to pot field-grown forget-me-nots in 5 and 6-inch pots for the greenhouse? Also what would be the right temperature to bring them in before the outside plants are in bloom? W. C. H.— Ore. Pot the forget-me-nots at once and get them established in the pots at the earli- est possible moment. Forget-me-nots will not stand hard forcing, but must be brought on gradually. Raise the temperature at night 5 degrees above the average night temperature in which they have been growing, and after a week of this raise it to about 55 de- grees. As soon as the flower buds can be distinctly seen — that is, as soon as they can be determined from growth shoots — raise the temperature to 60 de- grees. Avoid a close atmosphere, at all times ventilating freely night and day, and spray the plants lightly every clear day. After they are well estab- lished in the pots allow i)lenty of root moisture. H. R. R. INDIANAPOUS, IND. The Market. Christmas business was exceptionally good, stock in general being fairly plen- tiful. Potted plants were more abun- dant than cut stock. Roses were in fair supply and ranged in price from $12 to $60 per hundred. Carnations were not so numerous and the supply was entirely used. Light colors brought $12, while the dark shades and fancy varieties sold at $15 per hundred. Paper Whites and stevia were abundant. The former did not sell so well and brought only $6 and $8 per hundred. Stevia, how- ever, was in good demand to mix with other flowers for bouquets and corsage work. Poinsettias in both potted plants and cut blooms were in good demand. These were not so plentiful as in other years. Sweet peas are rather scarce, a steady demand using up the stock.

The supply of potted plants was un- usually large. Jerusalem cherries were abundant and were good sellers. They varied greatly in price, according to quality and size. Cyclamens were numerous, although the quality was not the best. The pink, lavender and red sold well, while the white flowers were not so popular. Various Notes. The Smith & Young Co. disposed of over 10,000 roses in less than three days. Thursday before Christmas was the largest day the company had ever ex- perienced. Greene's Flower Shop had an excel- lent Christmas trade. The business was considerably larger this year than last. Mr. Greene sold everything but a few of the cheaper plants. Bertermann Bros. Co. reported Christ- mas business was good, that plants were in heavier demand than cut flowers, but that prices were not so high this year as they were last. A. Wiegand's Sons Co. had an at- tractive Christmas window. To the back and at each side were bay trees made almost solid with artificial poinsettias. With these and greens as a background, the front of the window was elaborately decorated with real poinsettias both in cut blooms and plants.

Imports of nursery stock during the first thirteen months of enforcement of Quarantine 37 are given on another page of this issue, under the heading, "One Year of Quarantine." The death of Joseph Meehan, of Phila- delphia, well known to all the trade as a writer on horticultural and landscape subjects, occurred Deqember 23. His death is reported in the obituary column of this issue. Development of the 30-acre tract of land purchased by the state of Califor- nia near Sacramento to be used as a nursery is imder way. The first steps in- clude the boring of a well, building of fences, and leveling of grounds. Build- ings will be constructed later. The tract cost $15,000. The Massachusetts Nurserymen's As- sociation will hold its annual meeting at Boston, February 8. The officers, as elected last January, are: President, Walton G.

Co., Bochester, N. Y., were not true to name, Edgar Morey, a farmer of the town of Shelby, Orleans county, N. Y^ brought an action against the nursery nrm to re- cover the purchase price. A verdict for $1,200 was rendered against the Brown Bros. Co. at the trial before the Supreme court, held at Albion, N. Y., the week of December 13. After working for eight years as em- ployees of the Oregon Nursery Co., Oren- co. Ore., Carl Peterson and Eldor Henschke are starting a small nursery at Orenco.

Fall-sown beds should have a winter mulch of leaves, straw or hay, but this is not necessary with spring sowings. The seeds should- be broadcasted fairly thickly and lightly covered, and the sur- face gently firmed with a board or the back of a rake. If you want to advance your plants somewhat, and have the necessary greenhouse space, you could sow the seeds in flats three inches deep now. They probably would not germi- nate until the spring, but seeds sown now will germinate earlier than those sown outdoors in the spring. C. W. PROPAGATING MOSS BOSES.

PROVIDENCE, R. I. The Market. It was a green Christmas, without mistake. The ground was completely bare of snow and the hundreds of un- employed mill operatives throughout the country sections swamped the city markets with all kinds of evergreens. There was, however, a scarcity of cut flowers and flowering plants and these the florists who were fortunate enough to obtain a stock sold at almost any price they wanted to ask. Eoses that or- dinarily would retail at from $2 to $6 per dozen sold at from $5 to $25 per dozen. Small plants with any red blooms found quick sale at prices from $2.50 to $15. Poinsettias brought $1 per bud and bloom, and were few and far between. Made-up wreaths and baskets of arti- ficial and prepared flowers and foliage attained an almost incredibly large use. With ruscus for the background, all kinds of bright-colored imitation low- ers, red predominating, went into these pieces, which proved easy sellers. In cut flowers, carnations brought $8 to $12 per hundred; roses, $8 to $25; violets were scarce, also high, bringing $4 to $10 per hundred; chrysanthemums were among the specials and brought $2 to $8 per dozen; poinsettias, cut blooms, were $3 to $7.50 per dozen and garde- nias were $1 each. A few weddings and a number of large funerals made a heavy call on the local dealers, , Christnias Echoss. . Fred Davis, of tha Riverside "Green- houses, had a large lot of potted palnw, which found ready sale. The finest holly seen in this city in many years was received through the commiMion house of W.

Johnston Bros, furnished the immense 12-foot laurel wreath for the Provi- dence Journal Co. again this year, for the twentieth-odd season. Ed Brooke, of T. J.

Thomas Curley, the veteran grower of Harkness street, cut several hundred fine poinsettias, besides furnishing many blooming plants in small pots and pans. Various Notes. Charles Forbes reports an unusually large run of funeral work recently. Fred Dietz, 24 French street, had a large casket cover of roses and a num- ber of pieces for a funeral last week. John Johnston, of Johnston Bros., was a recent business visitor in Boston and vicinity. "William Doel, of Pascoag, B. I., was in town last week looking for final sup- plies for the holidays. Willis S. Pino has been elected vice- president of the New England Seed Trade Association. Viewing the thousands of handsome roses cut at the greenhouses of the Bud- long Rose Co., Auburn, it would be hard to make anyone believe that these bushes received a tremendous beating by hail and that nearly all the glass in the houses was broken thereby, the lat- ter part of September. It has been a wonderful recuperation. W. H. M. Maxblehead, Mass. — James Mockford, a grower at 21 Eockaway avenue, is just recovering from the effect of the coal shortage last season. Because of the fact that he could get no coal, the stock in his greenhouse, 18x100 feet, was ruined February 3. It was 3 below zero that day, with a gale blowing. The pipes and pumps in the greenhouse burst, eliminating all possible chance to save any of the crop from freezing. However, this year the prospects are brighter and things are coming along nicely.

The opening of the Christmas season in Toronto was rather disappointing to some of the florists, but the two days prior to Christmas were excellent, and as a result all members of the trade were elated. Additional help was put on the last two days both in the stores and for delivery purposes. The growers who had sent in all the stock they had planned for the holidays were ap- proached and consented to search their greenhouses for any stock which had es- caped their notice. It has been reported that last Thursday and Friday were record-breakers in the amount of busi- ness done on the last two days before Christmas in the history of Toronto. In spite of the prolonged dull weather in December, there was an exceptionally fine stock on the market. Azaleas and cyclamens were in abundance and sold rapidly. Both the buyers of azaleas be- fore the war and the new buyers of to- day purchased heavily, and as a result the large stocks were disposed of. In fact, the growers were not able to meet the demand. Various Notes. Telegraph business during the Christ- mas season was excellent, according to the florists here. Those who feature wire service here had good incoming business and many report a large num- ber of orders sent to florists in other cities. The Gardeners' and Florists' Associa- tion held its regular meeting December 20, with a large attendance. It was de- cided to have a question box; so at future meetings those wishing informa- tion can obtain it by dropping their questions in the box. The next meeting will be open and an address will be given by Alexander Simpson on botan- ical garden schemes. Arrangements will be made for the annual social, which is to be held in February. The exhibition of begonias, poinsettias and cypripedi- ums was exceptionally good. J. A. Neal recently purchased a new delivery truck, with which he will at- tempt to keep up with his increased business. J. J. H. JULIUS ROEHR8 CO. RUTHERFORD, N.J.

A few so-called Exhibition varieties under the best state of cultivation have in a degree Commercial qualities, but such qualities are greatly depleted under conditions slightly adverse. In other words, there is little or no middle ground—they are either good or bad.

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 amount 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. STEAM IN HOT WATER SYSTEM. I am having trouble with my heating system. I have a Wilks hot water boiler and it is making steam instead of hot water. I just completed the plumb- ing in my new greenhouse and am not getting the desired results. The boiler is located at the east end of the greenhouse, with the expansion tank four or five feet higher than the highest hot water point. In the boiler is one 2-inch overhead flow pipe, with ten returns. The flow pipe slopes down- ward, the lower end having a drop of be- tween six and twelve inches. A return of about the same slope goes to the boiler. The air valve is over the boiler at the highest hot water point. What can the trouble be? Have I enough pipe? I should like the temperature between 52 and 70 degrees, but not less than 52 degrees. The greenhouse is 14x100 feet. E. T. O., 111. The amount of glass in the ends of the greenhouse is not stated, and we are not sure regarding the size of the return pipes. If the returns are 2-inch, the radiation will be ample for a mini- mum temperature of 52 degrees, even with both gables exposed, in a house 14x100 feet. If the returns are 1%-inch, a mer- cury generator is needed to maintain 52 degrees, except by quite heavy firing, even with only one gable exposed. Under any circumstances, it is unwise to attempt to feed ten return pipes, 100 feet in length, with one 2-inch overhead flow pipe. If the returns are 1%-inch, we should put. in two more 2-ineh flow pipes, placing one on each plate and the other under the ridge, and supply a coil of four returns with the ridge flow, and three returns with each of the others. If the returns are 2-inch, we should remove two of the return pipes and use them as flows, with the same arrange- ment as suggested above, except that there will be three returns in two coils and only two in the middle coil. While we should prefer to start at the boiler with a 3-inch flow pipe, it will answer if there is a 214-inch flow port. From this take off flows to run to the plates. Continue it as a 2-ineh pipe to connect with the flow two feet below the ridge. Instead of placing an air valve at the highest point in the system, it will be better to run a small pipe from this point and connect it with the pipe lead- ing to the expansion tank.

Neither the letter nor the accompany- ing sketch gives any idea of the con- struction of the walls, but if there is no glass in any of the houses below the level of the wall plates and if the walls themselves are of well-built concrete block or frame construction, and not over five feet in height, we should use ten 2-inch returns in house No. 1, 31x100 feet; twelve in house No. 2, 36x125 feet, and six returns in house No. 3, 18x70 feet, placing one-half of the number on each of the side walls, although we should prefer, especially if the houses are built with raised benches, to di- vide the returns about equally between side-wall and under-bench coils. We note that it is proposed to divide the coils in the center of each of the longer houses, making four separate wall coils in each house, supplying all of them from one overhead flow pipe. Of course this may be done if there is any special reason for it, but for houses of this length we suggest the coils be con- tinuous. If the 4-coil system is to be used we should use a 4-inch main in house No. 1, reducing it to three inches after taking off the first two coils. In house No. 2 the main flow should be 5-inch, which may be reduced to 4-inch at the center of the house. For house No. 3 use a 3-inch main, taking it off from the flow to house No. 1 near the boiler. If only two coils are used in houses Nos. 1 and 2, it will only be necessary to use 4-inch overhead flow pipes, con- necting the end of the flow pipes with each of the coils by means of 3-inch sup- ply pipes. In house No. 3 the connect- ing pipes may be 2i^-inch.

From the talk of the leading retailers and wholesalers, Christmas business this year was ahead of any previous Christ- mas and, from reports in local florists' circles, broke all records in volume of business and satisfactory prices. The weather all through the week was clear and cold, and deliveries needed extra wrapping, which took up considerable time. In the absence of azaleas, the best selling flowering plants were cycla- mens. Poinsettias, as usual, Jiad a big call. Well fruited oranges and cher- ries were much in favor and the sup- ply was large in all blooming plants this year. Ferns and made-up baskets of plants had one of the largest demands in years, as the west end florists were cleaned up December 26 and at present writing will need a ponsiderable supply to replenish their stocks in order to make a show for New Year's day. The market was never better in sup- ply and quality of cut stock. Roses were easily the leaders and some extra fine quality of Premier, Russell, Colum- bia, Ophelia, Miladj* and Killaruey were noted last week, with prices more reasonable than in former years, while the demand this year was much better. Carnations fell somewhat below other years in demand and the supply was not so lieavy. Reds and pinks had the call, as usual. Select stock sold at from $15 to $18 per hundred. Cut poinsettias sold well and select heads brought as high as $9 per dozen. Violets were of fine qual- ity and averaged $3 per hundred. Cat- tloya Trianse had a strong demand, being ]irieed at $25 per dozen for choice blooms. Chrysanthemums were quite numerous at some of the wholesale houses, but did not sell as well at the price asked as had been expected. For sweet peas, $3 per hundred was a stiff price, but the supply was not equal to the demand at any time during GLASS for GREENHOUSES Get Our Prices JOSEPH ELIAS & CO., Inc. LONG ISLAND CITY, N. Y.

The demand for calendulas, Paper Whites, stevia and snapdragons used up the supply rapidly. The heavy demand upon the local growers, who cut closely all the week, will no doubt shorten stock considerably the coming week. In addition, one foot of snow fell Christ- mas night and the storm continued throughout the next day. Weather pre- dictions call for cloudy weather with much snow. It is expected here that New Year's business will be good, as society reports many approaching functions and orders for cut flowers and decorations have been already booked ahead. Various Notes. The downtown florists talk of noth- ing but the great volume of business done. Grimm & Gorly, Mullanphy Flo- rists, Riessen Floral Co., George Berner, the Foster Floral Co. and the floral de- partments at Vandervoort's and Famous- Barr say everything sold well and the demand for plants and cut stock was away beyond their expectations. C. Young & Sons Co. made a grand display of blooming plants and reports satisfactory business in all lines. Ostertag Bros, never had a better Christmas and report many advance or- ders for New Year's. In the west end the leaders all em- ployed extra help and their business was the best ever experienced. Some re- markable displays in the windows of Fred C. Weber,' Joseph Witek, F. H. Weber and the Sanders Nursery Co. at- tracted considerable attention. George Waldbart Floral Co., Ayres Floral Co., M. S. Newman and Koenig Floral Co., centered at Grand avenue and Olive street, say a better Christmas could not have been wished for. Their stores were filled with the choicest of stock in plants and cut flowers. Reports from the north and south ends of the city were that it had been the best Christmas ever. The most noted displays of Christmas stock were at the establishments of the Bergster- mann Floral Co., Windier 's Flowers, Schoenle Floral Co., Charles Beyer, Mrs. Bruenig, W. H. Kruse and the Blossom Shop. The Mullanphy Florists' north end establishment and the stores of the Bentzen Floral Co., Pieper Floral Co. and A. Brix Floral Co. had all they could attend to. The new florists' stores, the Carlton Flower Shop, Hamilton Flo- rist, Kissel and the McGill Floral Shop, who experienced their first Christmas, say everything was most satisfactory.

PHILADELPHIA, PA. 126 The Florists^ Review Dkcembeb 30, 1920 Gorly's east side branch, says it was a great Christmas, much better than last year. The wholesale houses of H. G. Ber- ning, W. C. Smith Wholesale Floral Co., Windier Wholesale Floral Co., C. A. Kuehn and Geo. H. Angermueller ex- perienced a heavy demand, both local and shipping. The Koenig Floral Co. will furnish the decorations incidental to the inaugura- tion of Governor-elect Hyde, at Jeffer- son City, Mo. Otto Koenig, head of the firm, a prominent Eepublican, received the order. W. C. Smith, treasurer of the Flo- rists' Club, will entertain the officers of the club at his home on Thurman ave- nue January 6, when an interesting pro- gram will be arranged for the meeting of the Florists' Club to be held Janu- ary 13. Thomas C. Carr, successor to the firm of Carr & Eichardson, Union Market, ex- perienced the best Christmas business in the thirty years he has been in the trade. The demand for greens, plants and cut stock was heavy. The St. Louis County Growers' Asso- ciation will hold its next yearly meeting January 5 at the W. A. Kowe establish- ment, Kirkwood, Mo. Interesting dis- cussions will take place, regarding Christmas business. President Martin Ude expects a full attendance. The St. Louis Association of Garden- ers is going to have a big New Year's meeting, which will be held at the mu- nicipal greenhouses, at Forest park. President Jensen says the feature of the meeting will be the installation of the newly elected officers. Several interest- ing discussions are also on the program. The florist bowlers will bowl regularly each Wednesday, and commenced on this schedule December 29. Members of the trade are welcome to attend any Wednesday night. The annual meeting of the St. Louis district branch of the National Flower Growers' Association will be held at St. Louis January 25. The local com- mittee, consisting of L. Jules Bourdet, W. A. Rowe and C. E. DeWever, who have all arrangements in hand, met December 29 to complete the program and enter- tainment features. Growers who have re- ceived application blanks for member- ship should fill them out and return to the secretary at once, as an attempt is being made to increase the membership to 100 by the time of the annual meeting. J. J. B. Ellsworth, Kan.— Mrs. T. E. Holt's first year in the cut flower trade has been completed and she reports a thor- oughly successful business for the year. Her Christmas trade was excellent as well. QRUmHOUSKS-ALL KINDS PUT YOUR GREENHOUSE PROBLEMS UP TO US We vo anywhere In the U. 8. to •abmlt plant and price*.

The Market. Christmas week found stock rather scarce in most lines, especially carna- tions and roses. Everything cleaned up nicely with the exception of white nar- cissi and stevia. If there had not been an oversupply on the market, these two items would have cleaned up, too, but every grower and wholesaler was over- stocked for several weeks before the Christmas rush. Cut poinsettias cleaned up with the exception of a few of the short ones. More carnations could have been sold had they been available. Stock this year was better than for some years past, which was gratifying to all concerned. Various Notes. The statement made recently that Karl Witthuhn had removed his stock to a new location has been investigated and appears to be without foundation. Mr. Witthuhn expressed the intention of moving, but as yet is in his former location. W. A. R. NEWABK, N. J. The Market. Considering the high prices it was necessary to charge for holiday goods, the Christmas trade was entirely satis- factory. Many customers who usually purchase cut flowers bought flowering plants or ferns, because they felt they were getting more value for their money. While there are a few mums in the market, they have practically passed for the season. Various Notes. The Hilton Dahlia Farm is the trade name which has been filed for the flo- rists' business conducted at 1958 Spring- field avenue, Hilton, by Catherine E. Gordon. The Washington Florists, Broad street and Central avenue, reported an excel- lent Christmas trade. E. B. M. Green Bay, Wis. — Carl Meier has pur- chased the Stiles greenhouses at Oconto, Wis., the largest in that part of the state. They were used for growing win- ter vegetables, but the increased cost of coal rendered that unprofitable. They will be planted to roses and carnations. / '^^ rJnMcUclde JAat THE RECOGNIZED STiNOARD INSECTICIDE A spray remedy for firreen, black, white fly, thrips and soft scale.

Notice the steel posts — six in all, not counting the corner posts. All these posts go down below the frost line to a concrete base, then up through the cement wall and are bolted to the steel end roof rafters. Being held firmly top and bottom, the point that would spring is therefore in the middle. The middle line is just about over the top of the doors at the first gable purlin. At this point we put diagonal braces extending from the intersection of the first purlin and posts to the intersection of the roof purlins and rafters. The gable, therefore, can neither blow in nor blow out and is what we started out to get — a rigid gable. When you think of good greenhouses, think of King.

Very compact and well shaped. SPIKES: — 3-ft., erect and a fair bloomer. 10 blooms on main spikes, 7 to 10 on secondaries; 6 blooms are usually open at one time, there being 3 spikes per cormel frequently.

Fergnson, Smiths Falls, Ontario, tin- der date of Dec. 2d, 1919, writes ua the following in regard to our petunias: "Last year I purchased Petunia seed from yon. I think every seed germinated and the blooms were the flnest ever seen in this part of Canada. Only about 8 per cent of the plants could be classed as common. I want more of the same quality each year." Mr. Rudolf Nagel, Lancaster, Pa., under date of Dec. 14th, 1919, writes us: "I had last year Just a few of yonr petunias, but I am sure I could have sold thousands of them. They surely came up to your claim and way ahead of my expectation." RICHARD DIENER CO., INC, Kentfleld, Cal. DOUBLE PETUNIAS.

The cap itS'lf ii bolted throu«h and through to the cohinin. So much for that hold up fraiuiiih' point. Now for how the rafter and purlin.^ are fa.itened tot-ether. Take a look at the out below.

That part of the rafter and tru.>- from the col- umn cap 3plici' plate to the ridge, is framed at the factory, all ready for lifting up into place. Plate No. 1 on both sides of the rafter, with its angle No. J, is liroui;hl face to face, and bolted loaelher. No. 3 i.s the anchor for the tru.ss rod which stiffens the ridge. No I i< the truss rod r No. 7 is the no leak ridge, so milled that the sash have sort of a pry tijiht movement, making it weather proof.

The r.ifler itself is no! below urade to rust. It lias no splice plates at the eave to cumber it up and cast shade. It's one solid piece from col- umn cap to base.
