The  Florists^  Review 


July  1,  1920 


i^eenliouse  guilders 


V/' 


From  the  look  of  the  old  gun,  you  would  declare  it  had  been  just  rushed  into  place 
by  galloping  horses.    Action  there  is  in  every  line  of  it. 


This  Civil  War  Cannon 

In  the  Old  Breastworks  at  Atlanta 

Has  a  Vital  Bearing  on  Our  Construction 


Perhaps  you  recall  our  Memorial  Day  talk,  in  which  we  told 
about  the  cannon  in  the  breastworks  of  the  old  Atlanta  bat- 
tleground. Likewise, 'the  old  veteran  who  had  come  back  on 
Memorial  Day  with  his  tjrandson.lto  put  in  the  silent  cannon's 
mouth,  some  violets.  Violets  that  would  say  with  flowers, 
what  the!oldiman's  heart  was\too  full  to  s^y  with  words. 

Well,  after  hand  in  hand  the  two  had  gone,  leaving  me  there 
aloHc  to  think  of  the  valorous  defense  of  the  boysof  sixty-five; 
I  turned  to  the  old  cannon  and  began  examining  the  construc- 
tion of  the  carriage  and  limber. 

Much  to  my  surprise,  the  heavy  tires  of  •''s-inch  thickness 
had  scarcely  rusted,  although  exposed  to  the  weather  lever 
since  they  were  left  there,  over  .5.i  years  ago. 

Examining  carefully  the  iron  hinges  on  the  limber  box,  found 
them  in  perfect  condition.  They  opened  as  freely  as  a  new 
Stanley  hinge.  The  oak,  however,  around  one  of  the  screws, 
was  so  rotted  that  I  lifted  one  ofJIthem  out  and  Ibrought  .it 
away^as  a  souvenir.' 

Perhaps  I  ought  not  to  have  done  it.  Admit  it  did  savor  of 
vandalism.    However,  here  it  lies  before  nie  as  I  write. 

The  point  and  thread  are  practically  as  sharp  as  the  day  lit 
was  made.    The  slot  is  also  entirely  free  from  rust. 

What,  then,  is  the  secret  of  this  rustless  iron  that  they 
used  in  those  days?  Tasked  a  chemist'' friend.  "Why.  that's 
easy,"  ho  replied.  "It's  wrought  iron.  Practically  pure 
wrought  iron.  You  know  pure  iron  doesollxust.  It  just  glazes 
over  with  an  outward   film  of  rust,   and  lasts  for  years   and 


years.  Why,  over  in  Delhi,  India,  there  is  a  pure  wrought  iron 
memorial  column  that  is  centuries  old.  The  fi?ures  and  hiero- 
glyphics are  still  surprisingly  clear  and  sharp. 

It  is  both  the  impurities  and  the  structure  of  present-day  iron 
and  steel  that  make  it  rust  out  so  quickly." 

After  which  remarks  I  just  naturally  thought  of  our  wrought 
iron  side  posts  and  recalled  that  a  long  time  has  passed  since 
we  have  said  anything  particular  about  them. 

Even  so,  about  all  there  is  to  say  now,  is,  that  the  only 
reason  we  use  guaranteed  wrought  iron  posts  is  because  of 
their  superior  lastingness. 

Our  rafters  are  steel. 

Rut  the  rafter  and  post  are  not  in  one  piece. 

The  steel  rafter  is  double  splice  plated   to  the  wrought  iron 

post,  at  the  eave. 

Of  course,  steel  posts  do  cost  less. 

We  could  make  more  money  by  using  them. 

When  you  buy  a  house  of  us,  we  claim  that  you  get  the  best 

house  money  can  buy. 

It  wouldn't  be  so,  if  we  used  steel  posts,  instead  of  guaranteed 

wrought  iron. 

When  your  posts  rust  out,  what  then  happens? 

Exactly  what  happens  some  day,  when  along  comes  a  stiff 

blow  or  a  hea^•y  snow? 

Because  of  just  such  a  happening,  we  recentl.y  put  up  two  of 

our  standard  houses  for  J'lorex  Gardens,  at    North  Wales,  Pa. 

Which  occurrence  is  its  own  best  evidence  in  favor  of  L.  &  B.'s 

houses.

FREESIA  PURin  -  improved 

The  Freesia  Bulbs  the  American  Bulb  Co.  offers  were  raised  by  the  finest  grower  in  California.  Florists  who  have  grown 
our  Freesia  Bui  bs  have  received  large  returns  when  they  were  shipped  to  the  wholesale  flower  markets.  In  every  case  we 
have  received  a  duplicate  order,  which  was  increased  over  the  original  order.  Florists  who  have  purchased  Bulbs  from  us 
agree  that  we  handle  the  finest  quality  of  well  matured,  ripeiied  bulbs. 

We  believe  we  are  the  largest  handlers  of  high-grade  PURITY  FSEESIA  bulbs  in  America.-  Florists  who  have  not 
given  us  a  trial  will  profit  by  sending  us  their  first  order.  We  know  you  will  re-order  from  us  every  season,  after  enjoying 
your  first  successful  season  with  our  high-quality  bulbs.  By  early  planting  they  can  easily  be  brought  in  bloom  at  Christmas 
and  a  continuous  blooming  season  can  be  maintained  by  successive  plantings.  For  growing  on  the  side  of  Carnations  or  to 
follow  Chrysanthemums,  we  recommend  smaller  bulbs.  To  get  good  results  they  should  be  tied  up  like  Carnations.  Do  not 
overlook  this  fact,  as  it  is  important. 

Bulbs  procurable  in  the  followinsf  sizes:

Dear  Sirs:  ^ 

The  Freesia  Purity  you  sold  me  this  year  were  as  good  as  ever.    I  have  found  that  1  can  alw*ys  rely  on  your 
Freesia  Bulbs.    The  large  ones  for  early  forcing  were  in  for  the  Holidays  as  usual. 

The  Rainbow  Freesias  are  fine,  growing  tall,  and  have  very  stiff  stems.    The  colors  are  very  fine  and  sell  readily. 

Yours  Truly, 

GEORGE  C.  WEILAND. 


RAINBOW  FREESIA 

We  can  now  supply  this  long  waited  for,  beautifully  colored  RAINBOW  Freesia.  They  are  carefully  selected  and  may  be 
had  in  the  best  colors.    The  better  floral  shops  throughout  the  country  are  using  these  very  extensively.  $35.00  per  1000. 

SUNSET  COLLECTION 

The  Sunset  Collection  of  Freesias  is  long-stemmed,  a  fine  keeper  and  is  much  more  easily  grown  than  the  ordinary  type 
of  Freesia.    $45.00  per  1000.

How  Do  You  Buy  Moss? 


By  the  bale?    Yes. 

Does  the  bale  you  buy  contain 
the  three  requisites  of  a  bale 
of  moss,  PRICE,  QUALITY, 
QUANTITY  ? 

"Rando  Brand"  moss  contains 
all  these  requisites,  together 
with  an  unblemished  name 
for  being  a  SUCCESSFUL 
brand  of  moss  for  years. 

Consider  PRICE:  The  observ- 
ant florist  w^ill  measure  the 
moss  he  buys.  For  the  same 
price  you  get  a  48x14x16  bale 
of  "Rando  Brand"  moss  instead 
of  a  44x14x14  bale  of  ordinary 
moss,  w^hich  assures  you  of 
22^/10%  more  moss. 

Because  we  have  our  OWN 
swamps  and  harvest  our  own 
moss,  dry  it,  prepare  it  and 
bale  it,  you  are  assured  of  the 
best  moss  on  the  market  when 
you  buy  "Rando  Brand."  When 
ordering  moss,  order  "Rando 
Brand."

IMPOBTANT  NOnOE 

Owing  to  the  very  great  Inoreaae  In  prloe 
of  all  materials  used  in  packing  of  planta, 
we  find  it  necessary  to  make  a  amall  chain 
for  same,  aa  follows,  much  lower  than  xh» 
percentage  plan: 

Full  size  eases $1.50  MMk 

Three-quarter  siae  eases 1.00  eaah 

Small  size  oases 60  aaeh 

Would  suggest  taking  plants  In  paper  nets 
whenever  possible.  It  is  a  big  saving  In  both 
packing  and  express  oharges.

Buy  Made-in-Ameiica  Wreaths 

and  keep 

American  Money  in  America — 

'* Keystone  Quality ' '  Wreaths  are  better  than  Europe 's  Best 

Made  just  as  you  would  make  them  yourself,  with  this  exception — you  make  a  few  or  a 
few  hundred— we  make  them  by  the  thousands— in  a  scientifically  managed  factory 
(insuring  uniformity  and  finest  workmanship)  where  tremendous  quantity  production  keeps 
actual  costs  and  overhead  expenses  down  to  the  lowest  possible  minimum. 

THAT'S  WHY 

we  can  sell  to  you  for  less  money  than  you  could  produce  them  yourself — their  actual  cost 
to  you  a  known  quantity,  not  guesswork  —  just  tack  on  your  retail  profit  and  deliver — 

For  each  wreatH^  comes  in  a  separate  box,  ready 

to   go  to  your  customer.      That's  easy,  isn't  it? 

AND  OUR  STYLES  ARE  BEAUTIFUL 

Floral  artists  have  desigrned  them  in  matchless  taste  and  color  effects.  Im- 
ported wreaths  were  never  like  them.  We  are  years  ahead  in  style  and  workmanship — 
and  we  expect  to  stay  there.

TRAFFIC  TIE-UP 

CURTAILS  COAL 

At  the  time  when  greenhouse  men  begin  to  store  coal  for  the  succeeding 
season,  the  curtailed  supply,  coupled  with  congestion  and  inadeqvMe  facil- 
ities on  the  railroads,  makes  conditions  least  favorable  for  obtaining  ship- 
ments.   Special  efforts  will  be  demanded  of  growers  to  secure  their  supply. 


F  I  cannot  get  coal  now," 
asked  a  florist  the  other 
day,  "what  will  be  the 
situation  in  the  fall?" 
Truly  a  query  deserving 
serious  thought.  And  it  is 
being  given  much  consider- 
ation by  the  greenhouse 
owners  in  all  parts  of  the 
country,  save  those  fortu- 
nate few  who  have  a  local  and  certain 
source  of  supply.  Just  now  the  florist 
who  goes  to  his  coal  dealer  with  the  in- 
tention of  laying  in  a  part,  at  least,  of 
next  season's  supply,  finds  he  can  get 
no  satisfactory  quotations  and  no  as- 
surances in  regard  to  delivery.  If  he  is 
not  an  established  patron  of  the  coal 
company,  the  florist  is  likely  to  obtain 
no  hearing  at  all.  And  if  he  has  been 
a  regular  customer,  he  gets  little  real 
satisfaction  from  the  coal  dealer's  re- 
plies to  his  questions. 

No  Storage  Coal  Now. 

On  one  point  he  is  given  reason  to  be 
sure,- namely,  that  there  is  no  coal  to  be 
had  now  for  storage  purposes.  All  that 
there  is  available  is  demanded  so 
strongly  by  manufacturers  whose  fac- 
tories have  been  partly  or  completely 
shut  doWn  for  lack  of  fuel  that  the 
price  is  so  high  that  no  one  wishes  to 
pay    it    who    has  'notf    immediate    and 


urgent  need  of  fuel.  Under  such  cir- 
cumstances the  purchaser  for  storage — 
the  role  of  florists  at  this  time — feels 
inclined  to  postpone  his  requests  in  an- 
ticipation of  more  favorable  conditions. 
Even  a  buyer  who  will  pay  the  price 
asked  receives  no  assurances  in  regard 
to  delivery.  The  dealer  expresses  his 
desire  to  get  the  cars  along  as  soon 
as  possible,  but,  if  pressed,  admits  his 
inability  to  do  much  about  it  with  the 
railroads  in  the  situation  which  exists 
now.  Even  after  the  cars  are  on  the 
way,  the  dealer  usually  has  no  idea  how 
far  they  have  traveled  and  can  only 
conjecture  as  to  when  they  will  reach 
their  destination. 

Transportation  the  Cruz. 

The  root  of  the  trouble  lies  in  the 
trafiic  congestion  caused  by  the  switch- 
men's strike,  though  several  other 
causes  have  contributed  to  an  aggrava- 
tion of  the  coal  consumer's  difficulties. 
Naturally  it  takes  time  to  get  into  move- 
ment all  the  cars  that  were  side-tracked 
when  the  switchmen  walked  out,  par- 
ticularly when  the  railroads  are  as  poor- 
ly equipped  as  they  are  reported  to  be 
at  the  present  time.  It  takes  a  still 
longer  time  to  catch  up  with  the  trans- 
portation of  commodities  which  was  de- 
layed during  that  time.  And  just  when 
the  job   of   doing  all   this  is  in   hand 


comes  the  time  when  the  grain  crops  de- 
mand cars  for  movement  eastward,  ad- 
ding to  the  strain. 

The  result  is  a  bigger  load  than  the 
horse  can  carry  and,  consequently,  the 
load  is  not  carried.  Coal  waits  at  the 
mines  for  cars  to  move  it  away.  Miners 
are  idle  because  there  is  no  way  to 
transport  the  coal  they  might  dig.  Pro- 
duction has  fallen  to  thirty  to  forty 
per  cent  of  normal,  a  rate  that  spells 
high  prices  for  the  rest  of  the  year  and 
a  certain  fuel  shortage  n^xt  winter  if  it 
continues. 

Moreover,  the  facilities  for  moving 
the  coal  which  will  be  needed  for  next 
winter  show  no  signs  of  early  improve- 
ment. Many  of  the  men  who  ivalked  out 
during  the  switchmen's  strike  found 
employment  in  othe*  i5.dustries.  The 
prolonged  strike  and  the  good  wages  in 
these  other  industries  caused  these  men 
to  remain  at  their  new  jobs  after  the 
strike  finally  came  to  an  end. 

Shortage  of  Bailroad  Workers. 

Hence  there  are  now,  it  is  estimated, 
only  seventy-five  per  cent  as  many  yard- 
men, switchmen  and  similar  workers  on 
the  railroads  as  there  were  a  year  ago. 
Included  in  this  number  are  a  good  many 
new  and  inexperienced  men.  They  re- 
quire instruction  and  supervision  by  the 
older    men.     Consequently    the     actual

The  Flo^ts^  Review 


July  1,  1920 


capacity  for  work  of  the  present  force 
is  even  farther  below  normal  than  the 
figures  indicate.  Under  these  circum- 
stances, immediate  relief  of  traffic  con- 
gestion and  restoration  to  normal  con- 
ditions is  not  to  be  expected. 

Moreover,  there  seems  to  be  an  actual 
shortage  of  rolling  stock,  due  to  the 
economy  practiced  by  tlie  government 
railroad  administration  and  since  the 
roads  were  returned  to  private  control. 
It  has  been  pointed  out  that  new  coal 
cars  have  not  been  tHfdered  by  the  rail- 
roads in  anything  like  an  adequate  num- 
ber since  government  control  was  re- 
moved. In  equipment  circles  orders 
have  been  reported  for  something  like 
3,700  coal  cars,  it  is  stated.  The  esti- 
mate which  was  made  by  the  special 
equipment  commijttee  of  the  Association 
of  Eailway  Executives  showed  need  for 
approximately  50,000  gondolas  and  hop- 
pers, both  styles  of  rolling  stock  being 
suitable    for   the   movement    of  coal. 

It  is  believed  that  replacements  of 
coal  car  rolling  stock  at  the  rate  of  ap- 
proximately 3.52  per  cent  are  necessary 
every  year  in  order  to  provide  adequate 
supply.  This  figures  out  roughly  to 
about  34,500  cars  each  year.  Eegarding 
the  outlook  for  further  ordering  of  coal 
cars  for  the  account  of  the  roads,  it 
is  believed  that  when  all  contracts  have 
been  signed  the  carriers  will  not  have 
made  commitments  for  more  than  5,000 
new  cars  for  1920. 

Assigned  Car  System  Blamed. 

Some  of  the  responsibility  for  the 
lack  of  cars  has  been  placed  by  coal 
operators  upon  the  interstate  commerce 
commission,  because  of  the  restoring  of 
the  assigned  car  system.  That  this 
system  is  a  failure  was  demonstrated, 
they  say,  during  the  war,  when  it  was 
banished  by  Fuel  Administrator  Gar- 
field. "Through  the  instrumentality  of 
this  commission,  it  is  stated,  the  rail- 
roads once  again  have  been  placed  in  a 
position  to  dictate  to  the  coal  industry 
and  once  again  it  has  become  necessary 
to  renew  the  fight  against  an  iniquit- 
ous practice  prejudicial  not  only  to  the 
Hoal  industry  but  to  the  country  at 
la^e." 

The  only  mines  able  to  obtain  cars 
with  any  degree  of  regularity,  it  is  as- 
serted, are  those  furnishing  railroad 
I  fuel.  In  many  instances,  in  self-de- 
fense, mines  are  compelled  to  accept 
railroad  fuel  orders  in  order  to  get  cars 
at  all.  At  a  time  when  the  car  supply 
averages  little  more  than  thirty-five  per 
cent,  the  effect  of  wholesale  and  promis- 
cuous assignment  of  cars  is  apparent. 
It  creates  a  scarcity  of  coal  for  com- 
mercial shipment.  "When  mines  are 
forced  to  accept  railroad  fuel  orders  in 
order  to  get  cars,  the,  railroads,  it  is 
charged,  demand  concessions  and  con- 
sequently obtain  coal  at  a  lower  price 
than  commercial  consumers.  Somebody 
has  to  pay  the  difference  between  the 
market  price  <ind  the  price  at  which 
the  coal  is  sold  to  the  railroads  and, 
as  is  always  the  case,  tliat  somebody  is 
tlie  consumer. 

High  Prices  To  Continue. 

Unless  there  is  improvement  in  the 
traflBc  situation  and  the  car  supply, 
prices  will  continue  at  the  hisih  level 
they  now  hold,  in  the  estimation  of  a 
leading  coal  trade  journal.  Its  report 
of  conditions  last   week  stated: 

"Nowhere  has  any  material  improve- 
ment been  made  in  production,  because 
the   car   situation    still    remains    totallv 


inadequate  to  the  keeds  of  the  mines. 
In  spots  in  West  Virginia  some  improve- 
ment was  noted,  but]  this  was  offset  by 
losses  in  other  sections  of  the  state. 

"Briefly  sketched!  the  situation  is 
this:  One  or  two  days  a  week  mines  are 
able  to  get  out  a  fairly  good  tonnage, 
but  the  balance  of  the  week  they  are 
held  down  to  a  minimum,  so  that  pro- 
duction for  the  country  does  not  aver- 
age over  forty  per  cent. 

"The  logical  result  is  high-priced 
coal  in  every  market  and,  as  there  is  no 
indication  of  either  an  immediate  or 
permanent  improvement  in  car  supply, 
the  public  can  expect  to  pay  high  prices 
for  the  balance  of  the  year." 

Export  Discussion  Distracts. 

Attention  has  been  distracted  from 
the  real  causes  of  the  coal  shortage 
by  congressional  discussion  of  fuel  ex- 
ports. Contrary  to  supposition  on  the 
part  of  some  individuals,  the  coal  ex- 
ported from  this  country  has  no  con- 
nection with  the  present  shortage. 
Statistics  show  that  from  January  1  to 
June  5  the  production  of  bituminous 
coal  in  this  country  totaled  221,000,000 
tons.  In  the  same  period  the  entire 
exports  of  coal,  including  those  to  the 
Panama  canal  and  Panama  railroad, 
amounted  to  7,000,000  tons,  or  about 
threa  per  cent  of  the  total  production. 
The  total  amount  shipped  out  of  the 
country  in  these  five  mpnths  is  less  than 
one  week 's  production — about  two- 
thirds,  in  fact,  of  the  average  quantity 
mined  in  this  country  in  a  week.  This 
year 's  expwrts  of  coal  have  not  been  above 
normal  years'  exports,  though  in  excess 
of  those  during  the  war  years  when  the 
fuel  administration  placed  temporary 
embargoes  on  the  shipment  of  fuel  out  of 
the  country.  So  there  is  not  special 
cause  for  alarm  in  the  size  of  the  coal 
export  trade,  particularly  in  comparison 
with  the  other  factors  which  have  been 
pointed  out  in  this  article  as  of  first 
importance.  For  instance,  if  the  car 
supply  were  sufficient  to  enable  the 
mines  to  operate  at  full  capacity,  in  the 
neighborhood  of  12,000,000  tons  per 
week,  instead  of  8,000,000  to  9,000,- 
000  per  week,  as  at  present,  the  amount 
exported  in  the  first  five  months  of  this 
year  would  be  made  up,  in  addition  to 
j)resent  production,  within  two  weeks' 
time. 

What  the  Chart  Shows. 

The  situation  at  present  is  indicated 
by  the  chart  on  the  preceding  page.  Pro- 
duction during  the  early  part  of  1919 
was  the  lightest  for  several  years,/)wing 
to  the  mild  winter  and  consequent  de- 
creased demand.  As  autumn  advanced 
the  quantity  of  coal  mined  increased 
until  the  strike  in  November  caused  the 
startling  drop  recorded.  So  short  was 
the  supply  as  a  result  that  activity  in 
the  coal  fields  rose  to  wartime  height 
during  .lanuary.  Then  various  impedi- 
ments brought  down  the  production 
mark  until  the  switchmen's  strike 
caused  another  heavy  slump  in  April. 
^  This  drop  was  the  more  perilous  be- 
cause stocks  were  depleted,  in  railroad 
heads,  in  dealers'  yards  and  in  con- 
sumers' bins.  Eeserves^are  lower  than 
thiey  have  been  for  a  long  time.  An 
•improven>ent  is  noted  in  the  last  few 
weeks,  but  not  so  rapid  as  it  should  be, 
because  the  railroads  cannot  furnish 
the  needed  cars  to  carry  the  coal  away 
from  the  mines.  The  heavy  black  line 
must  climb  more  vertically  in  the  next 
few  months  if  our  supply  is  to  be  at  all 


adequate.  That  ij:  is  above  1919  is  no 
comfort,  since  the  big  drop  in  last  No- 
vember must  be  made  up.  To  meet  the 
heavy  demand,  both  for  current  use  and 
to  furnish  reserves,  production  should, 
experts  say,  be  up  to  the  high  mark  of 
1918,  so  that  instead  of  a  weekly  9,000,- 
000  tons,  we  should  have  12,000,000  tons. 

Vigilant  Persistence. 

Under  present  conditions,  this  figure 
is  not  soon  possible.  The  ear  shortage 
and  the  inadequate  railroad  service 
render  hope  of  such  a  thing  quite  vain. 
Hand-to-mouth  consumption  of  coal  will 
continue  for  some  time  and  supplies  for 
storage  will  not  be  large. 

As  soon,  however,  as  immediate  in- 
dustrial needs  are  satisfied,  florists  will 
be  better  able  to  secure  shipments.  But 
it  will  be  by  no  means  so  easy  as  in 
former  years  to  secure  next  winter's 
supply.  The  greenhouse  owner  must  be 
vigilant  and  persistent.  He  must  be  un- 
ceasing in  his  efforts  to  lay  in  an  early 
supply.  In  three  months  the  autumn 
rush  will  create  a  still  keener  demand. 
The  aim  of  the  florist,  therefore,  must 
be  to  secure  his  coal  at  the  earliest 
favorable  opportunity,  for,  hard  as  it 
may  be  to  get  coal  during  the  summer, 
it  will  be  still  harder  when  cold  weather 
arrives. 


JUNE  SHOW  AT  PROVIDENCE. 

The  Ehode  Island  Horticultural  So- 
ciety held  its  annual  June  exhibition 
of  roses,  peonies,  strawberries  and 
other  seasonable  exhibits  in  the  Nar- 
ragansett  hotel,  Providence,  June  22 
and  23.  The  ballroom  was  well  filled 
with  exhibits.  A  long  table  running 
down  the  center  of  the  large  hall  con- 
tained a  grand  collection  of  hybrid  tea 
roses  and  peonies  from  Fred  C.  Green, 
superintendent  of  Eoger  Williams  park. 
Providence.  Included  were  three  beau- 
tiful new  yellow  Moutan  peonies  raised 
by  Lemoine,  named  Souvenir  de  Maxine 
Corner,  L'Esperance  and  La  Lorraine. 
Fine  peony  displays  came  from  Mrs. 
Samuel  Brown,  Mrs.  Clinton  E.  Walch 
and  John  S.  Doig,  head  gardener  to  F. 
S.  Peck,  Barrington,  E.  I. 

Ephraim  Morley  had  the  finest  indi- 
vidual bloom  of  hybrid  teas  in  the  com- 
petitive classes  in  Lady  Ashtown. 
There  were  good  displays  of  hybrid 
teas,  hybrid  perpetuals  and  ramblers. 
John  S.  Doig  had  the  best  group  of 
flowering  and  foliage  plants;  Maple- 
hurst  Greenhouses,  Longmeadow,  E.|I., 
were  second.  The  table  decoratioW  6f 
Mrs.  Walch  and  collection  of  ^a^dy 
perennials  from  John  S.  Doig  were  extra 
fine.  Johnston  Bros,  had  the  best 
bride's  bouquet.  Strawberries  were 
large  and  handsome  Jrom  Ephraim  Mor- 
ley, Arthur  Sallon  and  John  Gerard, 
Bristol,  E.  I.  W.  N.  Craig,  Brookline, 
Mass.,  officiated  as  judge. 


PAYING  BILLS. 


That  a  seller  of  goods,  under  agree- 
ments to  allow  the  buyer  a  discount  on 
payment  of  the  price  being  made  within 
thirty  days,  on  two  or  three  occasions 
permitted  the  buyer  to  deduct-  the  dis- 
count on  payments  made  after  lapse  of 
thirty  days,  did  not  give  the  buyer  a 
vested  right  to  make  such  unauthor- 
ized deduction  in  subsequent  transac- 
tions. This  is  the  holding  of  the  Appel- 
late Term  of  the  New  York  Supreme 
court  in  the  case  of  Bombas  vs.  Fisher, 
180  New  York  Supplement,  449.         S.

New  Ooiutruction  Methods. 

Daring  the  period  of  the  emergency 
the  whole  trade  had  to  meet  the  vary- 
ing conditions  and  adjust  their  business 
to  new  demands,  with  the  result  that  to- 
day there  is  a  unity  of  purpose  all 
through  the  trade  that  has  never  been 
known  before. 

Old  methods  of  production  and  mer- 
chandising have  been  changed.  Closer 
business  relations  between  the  growers 
and  the  retail  men  have  been  estab- 
lished through  collective  advertising, 
etc.,  and  a  broader  field  is  opening  up. 
The  whole  scope  of  the  business  is  be- 
ing extended  to  meet  the  new  condi- 
tions. 

From  amidst  all  this  chaos,  there 
have  come  better  methods,  better  man- 
agement and  a  greater  volume  of  busi- 
ness. And  among  the  more  important 
of  the  reorganization  problems  is  the 
construction  of  the  greenhouse  range. 

An  Important  Consideration. 

Construction  is,  and  was  always,  a 
most  important  cohsideration,  but  espe- 
cially so  at  this  time,  when  fuel  and 
labor  are  such  vital  factors.  Construc- 
tion that  will  endure,  glass  that  will 
stay  tight,  heating  systems  that  are 
economical  and  arrangements  that  ad- 
mit of  minimum  labor  are  some  of  the 
important  matters  that  reorganization 
has  brought  out. 

The  scarcity  and  the  high  prices  of 
building  material  have  presented  con- 
ditions that  the  greenhouse  builders 
have  found  hard  to  meet.  Some  of  them 
have  met  it  by  standardization  and  pro- 
duction. 


The  addreis  of  H.  E.  Bates,  of  the  Lord 
A  BDmham  Co.,  oil  "Present  Business  Reor- 
ganization and  Its  Effects  on  Greenhouse  Con- 
struction," before  the  Pittsburgh  Florists'  and 
Gardeners'   Club. 


The  growers  are  fast  coming  to  the 
realization  that  they  are  not  builders, 
but  growers,  and  they  see  the  extrava- 
gance, waste  and  shortsightedness  of  de- 
signing and  building  their  own  houses. 
By  standardization  and  by  putting 
gp-eenhouse  material  on  a  production 
basis,  it  is  easy  to  see  that  economy  in 
material  and  labor  vrill  start  where  it 
should — at  the  factory. 

Certain  greenhouse  construction  ma- 
terial has  been  made  for  some  time  in 
standard  sections,  sizes  and  patterns 
and  in  stocked  quantities,  but  it  has 
been  hard  to  standardize  a  complete 
type  of  house  and  stock,  owing  to  the 
grower's  custom  of  incorporating  into 
his  building  certain  ideas  and  theories 
of  his  own. 

Result  of  Years'  Study. 

The  standardized-production  house  is 
the  result  of  years  of  building  and 
study  of  greenhouse  engineering.  It  is 
one  of  a  certain  type,  either  iron-frame 
or  semi-iron,  commercial  or  private,  in 
widths  of  fixed  dimensions  and  made  to 
erect  in  multiples  of  eight  feet  four 
inches,  eight  feet  four  and  one-half 
inches  and  twelve  feet  six  inches  in 
length.  These  houses  htive  all  been 
worked  out  and  detailed  in  the  drafting 
room,  lists  made,  specifications  drawn, 
etc.,  and  then  put  in  the  shop  as  one 
big  order. 

These  houses  are  manufactured  on  a 
production  basis,  you  might  say  by  the 
mile,  and  sold  by  the  foot.  The  first  ap- 
peal to  the  customer  is  the  cost,  for 
they  will  run  from  ten  per  cent  to  twen- 
ty per  c^t  lower  in  price  than  special 
houses,  but  on  careful  study  of  detail 
and  specifications,  one  will  realize  the 
superiority  of  this  type  over  a  special 
construction,  as  the  house  is  standard- 
ized with  all  the  best  and  most  up-to- 
date  features  of  construction  included 
and  put  through  the  factory  in  that 
way.      All    parts    are    interchangeable, 


therefore  mechanically  correct,  with 
uniform  finish  and  accurate  -  workman- 
ship. Jigs,  fixtures  and  other  labor- 
saving  devices  are  employed  that  are 
safeguards  against  blunders,  poor 
workmanship  and  waste  of  mate- 
rial. Another  advantage  to  the  grow- 
er is  that  shipment  of  this  class  of 
house  can  be  made  promptly  and  with 
less  liability  of  shortages,  etc. 

Formerly,  when  each  greenhouse  job 
was  put  through  the  factory  separately, 
when  its  construction  and  details  were 
the  combined  ideas  of  grower,  salesman 
and  manufacturer,  the  result  was  not 
always  satisfactory.  There,  was  not  the 
uniformity  of  construction,  performance, 
first  cost  and  upkeep  that  the  growers 
might  expect.  Delays  in  getting  the 
work  through  the  factory  and  in  ship- 
ping were  constantly  a  source  of  anx- 
iety to  the  manufacturer. 

No  Season  For  Waste. 

There  was  an  extravagant  waste  of 
time  and  material  in  this  method  of 
building  and  the  customer  paid  for  it. 
But  why  should  he?  If,  by  employing 
methods  that  have  proved  so  satisfac- 
tory in  other  lines  of  manufacturing, 
the  production  could  be  made  better, 
cheaper  and  more  satisfactory  to  the 
consumer,  why  not  standardize  and  give 
to  the  grower  a  product  that  is  the  last 
word  in  completeness  and  economy? 

By  comparison  with  the  automobile 
business,  it  can  be  shown  how  produc- 
tion has  made  it  what  it  is  today.  When 
automobiles  were  first  sold  you  were 
charged  extra  for  windshield,  top, 
lamps,  etc.  Now  they  are  a  part  of  the 
regular  equipment.  Self-starters,  elec- 
tric devices,  demountable  rims  and 
vacuum  gas  feed  are  now  considered  a 
matter  of  standard  equipment  on  prac- 
tically all  cars. 

What  has  made  these  changes  possi- 
ble? The  only  answer  is  standardiza- 
tion and  production.

The  Florists^  Review 


July  1,  1920 


The  automobile  manufacturers  have 
centered  their  efforts  on  standardiza- 
tion and  production  to  the  mutual  bene- 
fit of  all.  This  business  policy  can  be 
maintained  in  the  manufacture  of  green- 
house material.  You  can  get  specially 
d.osigned  autos  for  special  work,  trucks 
and  truck  bodies,  but  you  must  pay  for 
this  privilege.  You  will  always  be  able 
to  get  special  greenhouses,  special 
types,  designs,  etc.,  for  locations  where 
standard  sections  cannot  be  used.  But 
the  standard  house  can  be  used  almost 
anywhere  and  for  practically  all  pur- 
poses. 

Building  Problem  Simplified. 

With  a  full  ^understanding  of  just 
what  the  standardized  production  house 
isj  what  it  means  to  the  trade  as  a 
whole,  from  the  grower  to  the  retailer, 
the  problem  of  building  will  be  greatly 
simplified.  The  layout  of  a  new  range, 
or  additions  to  the  old  one,  will  not 
have  so  many  perplexities  as  in  the  past. 

Standard  widths  and  lengths  of  sec- 


tions will  differ  with  manufacturers, 
equipment  will  vary  according  to  the 
policy  of" the  various  concerns,  but  the 
basic  principle  of  standardization  will 
be  in  all  construction.  Some  of  the 
manufacturers  will  not  come  to  this 
policy  at  once,  some  of  the  growers  will 
not  take  kindly  to  this  standard  idea 
at  first,  but  both  manufacturer  and 
grower  will  come  to  the  full  realization 
of  what  this  standard  production  means 
when  the  rush  of  business  is  upon  them, 
when  time  moans  everythiag  and  every- 
thing depends  on  when  the  house  can 
be  planted.

HEARING   FROM   THE   HANDS. 


BifSjig  the  Bonus  System. 

I  read  with  interest  in  The  Review 
of  June  10  the  article  entitled  "Trade 
Tries  Profit  Sharing"  and  about  "Hold- 
ing the  Hands."  I  am  one  of  the 
hands.  I  think  the  bonus  system  is 
wrong.  I  think  also  that  Mf.  Ras- 
mussen's  idea  is  wrong.  This  is  why: 
In  an  establishment  of  the  size  of  Mr. 
Easmussen's,  where  there  is  a  consider- 
able number  of  employees,  the  older  em- 
ployees would  make  life  miserable  for 
the  new  men  until  the  latter  would  give 
up  in  disgust  and  quit,  nine  times  out 
of  ten,  withDut  giving  any  reason.  Now, 
the  florists'  business  is  something  a  lit- 
tle bit  different  from  any  other  busi- 
ness, because  the  men  employed  in  it 
must  ])e  intelligent  and  steady;  you  will 
find  that  most  of  the  men  are  steady. 

Why  Men  Quit. 

Here  are  some  of  the  things  because 
of  which  men  quit.  Too  many  bosses, 
is  one  reason.  There  should  be  only 
one,  and  he  or  she  should  be  absolute. 
There  can  be  only  one  boss  in  a  green- 
house, only  one  that  has  any  business 
to  give  orders.  If  you  have  a  foreman, 
he  is  the  man  to  settle  all  questions. 

For  another  thing,  the  owner  should 
see  that  the  equipment  is  good  and  that 
the  watering  outfit,  such  as  boots  and 
aprons,  is  kept  in  good  condition. 
If  you  do  not  furnish  them,  now  is  a 
good  tim^  to  start.  Almost  any  other 
business,  where  men  make  two  or  three 
times  the  amount  of  money  which  we 
make  in  the  greenhouses,  furnishes  its 
men  with  waterproof  materials  when 
there  is  any  wet  work  to  be  done.  Take 
an  interest  in  your  men  if  you  want 
them  to  take  an  interest  in  their  work. 
If 'you  board  them,  give  them  decent 
board  and  decent  quarters  to  live  in, 

Ifaybe  Different;  Maybe  Right. 

-    Remember,    when    you    start    a    new 


man,  that  he  has  learned  his  trade  prob- 
ably by  a  method  different  from  the 
way  you  learned  yours.  Maybe  his  is  a 
better  way  than  yours;  maybe  yours  is 
a  better  way  than  his.  If  he  is  a  flo- 
rist, give  him  some  responsibility.  Tell 
him  what  his  work  is  and  then  leave 
him  alone.  If  he  turns  out  the  goods, 
treat  him  right.  When  he  goes  stale  or 
shows  any  sign  of  going  stale,  antici- 
pate him.  Then,  when  you  do  want  a 
man  for  overtime  or  anything  else,  you 
will  have  a  man  you  can  depend  upon. 
If  he  cannot  do  the  work,  you  know 
what  to  do — let  him  go. 

Pay  him  decent  wages,  and  if  you 
have  had  a  good  year,  give  him  a  sub- 
stantial Christmas  gift,  two  weeks'  or 
a  month's  salary,  and  let  him  know  that 
you  are  his  friend.  If  he  has  any  trou- 
bles or  anything  bothering  him  or  if  he 
needs  any  advice,  let  him  know  that  you 
are  willing  to  help.  Get  together  once 
in  a  while  and  encourage  him  to  offer 
suggestions  and,  if  they  are  good,  give 
him  credit  for  them.  But,  for  heaven's 
sake,  cut  out  the  talk  about  bonus  and 
percentage,  or  you  will  spoil  the  men. 
Cut  out  the  jqshing. 

Putting  in  Pep. 

If  you  have  a  certain  bunch  that 
hangs  together  and  carries  tales,  get  a 
long,  strong  rope  and  hang  them  all  to- 
gether. Keep  them  away  from  the  new 
men.  Fire  them  if  you  have  to.  Play 
no  favorites;  you  cannot  do  it  and  ex- 
pect new  men  to  stay  with  you.  Most 
of  the  men  in  this  business  are  pieces 
of  highly  developed  mechanism  and  r.re 
pretty  thin-skinned.  If  you  have  any- 
thing to  say  to  a  man,  say  it  to  him  de- 
cently and  not  before  a  gang  of  fellows 
who  are  waiting  to  watch  him  get 
bawled  out. 

Cut  out  all  the  Sunday  work  that  you 
can  and  load  a  bunch  of  the  workers 
in  an  automobile  and  take  them  away 
from  the  greenhouses  for  a  Sunday 
afternoon.  Then  watch  their  pep  in  the 
days  following. 


There  are  a  thousand  different  ways 
to  interest  the  men  in  their  work  and 
keep  them  interested.  This  is  true  as 
much  in  a  small  range,  where  only  one 
or  two  are  employed,  as  in  the  larger 
establishments.  A.  Hodge. 


WHERE'S  THE  GOLDEN  RXJUS? 

I  wish  to  call  attention  to  a  growing 
evil,  which  few  who  read  this  have 
escaped  if  they  buy  or  grow  stock  for 
planting.  It  is  the  poor  and  sickly 
plants  so  often  shipped  by  men  whose 
names  sound  well  in  this  business.  This 
stuff  is  frequently  hopeless  and  packed 
poorly,  with  a  stiff  charge  for  packing 
when  it  starts.  Many  growers  are 
harassed  the  whole  season  attempting 
the  impossible  task  of  nursing  it  back, 
wasting  their  limited  time  and  space. 
Its  initial  cost,  considerable  though  it 
is,  forms  but  a  small  part  of  this  loss. 
Growers  who  ship  these  unfair  goods 
know  this  and  it  does  not  speak  well 
for  their  sense  of  right  or  sympathy 
for  their  fellow  craftsmen;  those  quali- 
ties are  sometimes  as  weak  as  the 
plants  shipped.  The  evej*-ready  steam 
pipe,  Burleson  and  the  express  company 
are  not  always  convincing  excuses 
when  the  goods  themselves  suggest  they 
were  too  weak  to  travel. 

It  seems  a  bad  practice,  too,  for 
some  plant  brokers  confidently  to  ad- 
vertise, push  and  promise  delivery  on 
items  which,  frequently  after  months 
of  delay,  they  cannot  deliver.  Nor 
shbuld  they  have  plants  sent  out  which 
they  never  saw,  thus  making  them- 
selves parties  to  the  practices  here  re- 
ferred to. 

An  order  to  some  brokers  now  is  like 
a  prayer;  the  thing  may  be  granted 
now  or  sometime  in  the  future.  And, 
as  with  a  prayer,  too,  the  person  asking 
for  the  thing  and  not  getting  it  afcvall 
is  often  fortunate  that  he  did  not  get 
it.  Perhaps  most  of  us  are  too  bii»y 
to  bother  much  about  little  things  like 
trying  to  give  the  other  person  what 
we  would  wish  him  to  give  us,  for  if 
we  do  not  get  his  money  we  shall  get 
that  of  someone  else  and  it's  the  money 
that  counts,  not  the  thing  given  in  ex- 
change for  it.  F.  Fallon.     ' 


HYACINTHS   DAMPING   OFF. 

What  causes  hyacinths,  especially  the 
white  varieties,  to  fail  to  push  up  th^ 
flowering  spikes f  When  the  spikes  are 
up  about  two  inches  they  can  be  lifted 
out;  they  are  entirely  detached  from 
the  crown.  E.  W. — Pa. 


There  are  two  probable  causes  of  your 
hyacinths  failing  to  flower  satisfactor- 
ily. First,  many  bulbs  become  heated 
in  transit  and  as  a  result  the  embryo 
flower  buds  are  killed  in  the  bulbs. 
The  plants  will  produce  foliage,  but 
not  flowers,  although  sometimes  weak 
spikes  will  appear  and  melt  away.  Tu- 
lips and  certain  varieties  of  narcissus 
are  often  heated  and  spoiled  in  this 
same  way.  Second,  an  excess  of  mois- 
ture, either  outdoors  or  indoors,  will  fre- 
quently cause  hyacinth  spikes  to  damp 
off  and  white  ones  are  more  delicate 
and  susceptible  than  those  of  other  col- 
ors. Indoors  every  care  should  be  taken 
not  to  wet  the  spikes  when  watering; 
outdoors  avoid  a  stiff,  retentive  soil 
and,  if  at  all  possible,  make  it  more 
porous  by  adding  coarse  sand,  fine  coal 
ashes  and   some   well   decayed  manure.

PRESIDENTS  CALL 


COME  TO  CLEVELAND. 


The  President  Calls. 

The  thirty-sixth  annual  convention 
of  the  S.  A.  F.  is  now  only  six  weeks 
distant.  The  central  location  of  Cleve- 
land ought  to  insure  a  big  attendance 
from  all  sections  of  the  country. 
August  17,  18  and  19  are  dates  con- 
venient for  the  majority  of  the  florists 
and  climatic  conditions  in  the  Cleve- 
land district  at  this  time  are  usually 
such  as  to  make  a  sojourn  there  most 
enjoyable. 

This  convention  should  prove  to  be 
particularly  interesting  to  those  en- 
gaged in  our  industry.  The  reconstruc- 
tion period  in  business  following  the 
war  has  brought  many  problems  which' 
florists  are  of  necessity  obliged  to  solve 
and  in  this  direction  material  assist- 
ance is  afforded  through  the  conven- 
tion and  the  excellent  trade  exhibi- 
tion arranged  in  connection  with  it. 

Make  up  your  mind  to  be  among  those 
who  will  gather  at  the  convention.  It 
matters  little  what  particular  branch 
of  our  profession  you  are  most  inter- 
ested in;  you  will  learn  something  to 
your  advantage  or  pick  up  an  idea 
tending  to  make  your  interest  greater. 
You  will  meet  hundreds  of  your  fellow 
florists,  with  whom  you  can  exchange 
views  and  discuss  possibilities.  If  you 
have  never  attended  one  of  our  conven- 
tions, especially  in  recent  years,  you 
have  a  treat  awaiting  you,  one  com- 
bining business  and  pleasure.  It  is  one 
of  the  greatest  annual  gatherings  ar- 
ranged in  the  interests  of  any  indus- 
try; about  20,000  square  feet  of  floor 
space  is  required  to  house  comfortably 
the  convention  and  the  trade  exhibition. 
Few  cities  can  provide  this  amount  of 
space  in  a  single  location. 

Best  Come  as  a  Member. 

If  you  are  not  a  member  of  our 
society,  why  not  join  us  at  the  conven- 
tion? Better  still,  send  your  check  for 
$5  to  Secretary  John  Young,  43  "West 
Eighteenth  stree^,  New  York,  right 
away  and  become  a  member  in  advance. 
Our  membership  is  reaching  up  to  the 
4,000  mark  and  is  thoroughly  rg^re- 
sentative  of  our  industry  in  all  its 
branches. 

Our  trade  exhibition  alone  is  worth 
a  journey  to  Cleveland — or  to  any  other 
city  for  that  matter.  This  year  it  is 
to  be  the  largest  in  the  history  of  the 
society.  If  you  are  a  retail  florist,  you 
will  see  the  latest  creations  and  de- 
velopments in  store  supplies,  vases, 
baskets,  decorative  auxiliaries  and  busi- 
ness helps.  If  a  grower,  you  will  be 
interested  in  the  various  greenhouse 
appliances,  examples  of  greenhouse 
construction  and  heating  apparatus. 
The  plant  exhibits  and  bulb  displays, 
interesting  to  both  branches  of  the 
florists*  business,  will  be  found  most 
comprehensive,  and  many  little  sur- 
prises are  promised. 

A  Trip  for  the  Family. 

You  need  not  come  to  Cleveland 
alone.     Bring  your  wife,  or  others  of 


your  family;  they  will  surely  enjoy 
their  visit  as  much  as  you  will  your- 
self. The  hotels  in  the  city  can  take 
care  of  us  all  and  the  local  florists 
promise  us  a  most  hearty  reception. 
Quite  probably  your  business  owes  you 
a  little  respite  from  the  cares  and  re- 
sponsibilities of  an  active  year  and  you 
will  have  it  in  a  visit  to  the  convention, 
returning  to  your  labors  better  equipped 
to  continue  the  struggle  for  something 
more  than  mere  existence. 

In  behalf  of  the  society,  I  invite  you 
to  join  with  us  in  our  effort  to  make 
the  1920  convention  one  of  enjoyment 
and  lasting  benefit,  as  well  as  the  big- 
gest and  best  among  the  thirty-six  on 
record.  It  will  be  ^  most  democratic 
gathering,  without  frills  or  formalities 
of  any  kind  likely  to  disturb  the 
pleasures  of  a  visit  of  which  the  min- 
gling of  good  souls  is  a  prime  feature. 
A.  L.  Miller,  President. 


LADIES'  S.  A.  F. 


Come  to  Cleveland! 

If,  as  members  of  the  Society  of 
American  Florists  predict,  the  coming 
convention  of  this  society  is  to  be  a 
record-breaker,  both  in  interest  and  at- 
tendance, may  I  appeal  to  the  members 
of  the  Ladies'  S.  A.  F.,  urging  every 
woman  to  interest  herself  in  this  forth- 
coming convention  and  consider  herself 
a  committee  of  one  to  make  plans  for 


the  success  of  our  part  of  the  conven- 
tion? It  would  be  a  great  encourage- 
ment to  all  of  the  officers  who  are  try- 
ing to  make  the  society  a  real  working 
force  in  horticultural  affairs  if  the  at- 
tendance of  the  members  could  be 
record-breaking. 

Never  before  have  so  many  women 
been  interested  in  the  florists'  profes- 
sion and  never  was  there  a  need  of  a 
stronger  affiliation,  whether  the  interest 
is  from  a  personally  conducted  business 
or  merely  as  the  wife,  sister  or  mother 
of  a  florist,  grower  or  seedsman. 

The  social  element  of  every  great 
business  must  be  considered  and  it  is 
the  duty  and  the  pleasure  of  the  ladies 
to  look  after  this,  not  only  to  make  the 
convention  better  for  the  ladies,  but 
better  for  the  men.  We  plan  this  year 
to  revive  the  special  feature  for  the 
ladies'  evening  entertainment.  To 
make  this  a  success  we  need  more  than 
plans,  more  than  funds;  we  need  your 
attendance  and  your  interest.  I  have 
been  an  attending  member  at  these  con- 
ventions for  several  years  and  it  has 
been  the  greatest  pleasure  to  meet  the 
members  from  all  over  the  United 
States.  As  president  of  the  society  it 
is  my  greatest  desire  to  bring  the  ladies 
into  a  closer  association  this  summer. 
It  is  to  our  mutual  advantage  and  pleas- 
ure that  we  know  each  other  better  and 
these  conventions  offer  the  only  oppor- 
tunity. We  need  a  closer  cooperation 
and  the  association  that  these  few  days 
afford  is  of  far-reaching  benefit.  We  need 
your  presence.  I  feel  fully  justified  in 
making  an  earnest  appeal,  urging  every 
woman  who  can  to  attend  the  conven- 
tion and  if  not  already  a  member  of  the 
Ladies'  S.  A.  F.,  we  shall  surely  enroll 
you,  for  once  an  attendant  at  a  success- 
ful convention,  always  a  member. 

Mrs.  B.  Hammond  Tracy.

FROM  PICKLING  TO  PUBLICITY. 


Less  Trust  in  Cut  Flowers. 

Our  business  for  Memorial  day  is 
undergoing  a  radical  change  and  that 
change  can  be  made  one  for  the  general 
benefit  of  everyone  engaged  in  tfte  flo- 
rists' business.  The  demand  for  bou- 
quets and  cut  flowers  may  become  a 
thing  of  the  past — a  condition  for  which 
florists  can  blame  only  themselves.  The 
underlying  cause  is  the  result  of  "pick- 
ling" flowers,  which  turns  out  to  be  a 
loss  to  the  grower  and  a  source  of 
much  dissatisfaction  to  the  retailer. 

Years  ago  the  public  could  buy  bou- 
quets for  from  50  cents  up,  but  it  is 
doubtful  if  anyone  ever  made  money 
out  of  them.  Most  of  us  have  had  a 
taste  of  making  bouquets  at  50  cents 
and  $1.  Of  course  some  went  as  high 
as  $3  and  $5,  but  I  am  speaking  of  the 
general  run.  It  was  great  fun  (?)  try- 
ing to  do  an  acceptable  job  with  stocks, 
spiraea,  a  red  peony  in  the  center,  squeez- 
ing in  a  spray  of  lilac,  a  tulip  or  two, 
an  iris  and  the  trimmings-^all  for  $1. 

Sleepy  Flowers  Cause  Slack  Trade. 

Today  many  retailers  will  not  make 
any  kind  of  bouquet  for  less   than  $2 


and  consequently  purchasers  expect 
better  quality  in  lieu  of  quantity.  But 
they  do  not  expect  to  find,  after  o 
few  hours,  that  the  carnations  are  going 
to  sleep  and  the  roses  falling  apart, 
or  that,  after  an  hour  in  the  cemetery, 
the  bouquet  is  beginning  to  sag  in  the 
middle  because  it  misses  the  cool,  brac- 
ing air  of  the  icebox  which  has  been  the 
former  home  of  the  flowers.  Under  such 
conditions  is  it  surprising  that  we  find 
an  increasing  demand  for  artificial 
stock,  which  every  retailer  "hates  to 
handle,"  but  which  the  public  demands? 
It  is  perfectly  legitimate  business  to 
charge  .$3  per  dozen  for  carnations, 
$1.50  per  bunch  for  sweet  peas  and  $5 
per  dozen  for  roses,  but  they  should  be 
fresh  and  of  high  quality.  It  is  bad 
business  to  spend  money  advertising 
a  commodity  which  does  not  prove  satis- 
factory to  the  purchaser.  What  can 
be  the  state  of  mind  of  a  person  who, 
on  Memorial  day,  has  tried  to  "Say 
It  with  Flowers"  because  flowers  con- 
vey the  appropriate  message  of  love 
and  remembrance,  and  then  finds  the 
flowers  lie  down  on  their  job  and  go  to 
sleep? 

It  is  an  open  question  whether  any- 
thing is  gained  in  the  pickling  process. 
We  will   say    that  a  carnation  grower

The  Florists^  Review

does  not  cut  any  flowers  for  a  week 
previous  to  any  of  the  big  days.  He 
makes  one  big  cut — but  many  of  the 
flowers  are  then  pass6  and  "cause  a 
shrinkage  if  the  grower  has  a  conscience 
and  examines  them  before  shipping. 
The  retailer  receives  them  and  the  next 
day  still  more<>have  passed  on,  a  loss 
which  opens  an  argument  between  the 
wholesaler  and  retailer.  The  retailer 
passes  the  flowers  on  to  his  customers 
and,  while  his  intentions  may  be  of  the 
best,  there  is  a  possibility  of  there  being 
one  or  more  "sleepers"  in  each -dozen, 
a  condition  which  means  that  the  pur- 
chaser will  probably  return  them  to  the 
retailer  and  demand  an  explanation, 
with  the  consequent  dissatisfaction  of 
all  concerned.  When  the  ultimate 
shrinkage  is  taken  into  consideration 
the  grower  would  be  money  in  pocket 
to  cut  his  carnations  regularly  and  sell 
only  such  as  would  prove  satisfactory. 
That  plan  would  shorten  the  supply, 
but  would  boost  the  selling  price  of 
first-class  stock. 

Pot  plants  are,  as  a  rule,  satisfactory, 
because  they  are  almost  certain  to  last 
a  week  or  two  in  good  condition.  The 
trend  of  the  demand  seems  to  be  to- 
wards pot  plants  and  artificial  stock 
and  the  demand  for  cut  flowers  will  be 
on  the  increase  only  when  the  buying 
public  feels  that  it  is  getting  its 
money's  worth. 

Publicity  in  Time  of  Gluts. 

In  view  of  the  new  organizations 
which  are  being  formed  in  our  business, 


the  following  idea  has  come  to  the 
writer,  but  whether  it  would  come  under 
the  jurisdiction  of  the  S.  A.  -  F.  or  of 
the  National  Flower  Growers'  Associa- 
tion can  be  settled  later.  About  May 
20  business  in  the  flower  market  in 
Boston  was  completely  flat,  with  carna- 
tions selling  at  $2  per  hundred,  wonder- 
ful long-stemmed  sweet  peas  hard  to 
move  at  $1  per  hundred,  roses  at  a 
standstill — all  flowers  of  fine  quality, 
but  with  no  sale  for  them.  It  seems 
as  though  there  should  be  in  each  city 
ah  advertising  committee,  part  of  whose 
duty  should  be  to  watch  the  market  in 
time  of  .gluts,  with  the  authority  to 
place  advertisements  in  the  leading 
papers  at  such  times,  letting  the  public 
know  that  flowers  were  never  more 
plentiful  or  beautiful  or  fragrant. 
Where  would  the  funds  for  this  adver- 
tising come  from?  If  it  were  possible 
to  figure  the  loss  occasioned  by  gluts 
and  balance  it  against  the  gain  from 
such  advertising,  the  result  would  amply 
justify  the  amouifT  spent  in  advertis- 
ing. Growers  should  be  willing  to  share 
equally  with  the  retailers,  if  not  to 
take  a  larger  share,  in  the  cost  of  any 
advertising.  See  how  "big  business" 
does  things.  William  Wrigley  has  sj/ent 
$20,000,000  in  the  last  twelve  years  in 
advertising  his  gum.  If  he  had  waited 
for  all  those  who  retail  his  product  to 
do  his  advertising  for  him,  where  would 
lie  be. today?  That  is  the  point  of  view 
the  growej'  should  take  in  our  business.

LOOKING  BACK  OVEB  THE  YEAR. 


Review  the  Work. 

Another  year's  history  has  been  writ- 
ten in  the  florists'  business  and,  to  my 
mind,  this  would  be  an  opportune  time 
for  us  to  stop  for  a  brief  period  and  re- 
view the  last  year's  mistakes -tnuiy fail- 
ures, so  that,  instead  of  being  charged 
up  to  us  as  failures,  they  may  be 
transferred  into  valuable  assets.  This 
can  be  done  if  we  will  be  honest  with 
ourselves  and  look  the  situation  fear- 
lessly in  the  face.  Now  that  the  season 
is  over,  get  down  to  brass  tacks  and 
liquidate  your  business.  You  can  do 
this  on  paper  for  your  own  information, 
but  you  should  meet  every  item  square- 
ly and  see  where  you  stand  and  what 
the  season  has  meant  for  you.  Have  a 
thorough  house-cleaning  and  see  if  you 
can't  discover  leaks  that  might  have 
been  eliminated.  There  is  no  time  to 
do  this  like  the  present,  when  they  will 
be  fresh  in  your  memory.  ^' 

In  these  times  of  prosperity  it  is 
well  for  us  to  remember  that  frequently 
"things  are  not  what  they  seem."  We 
are  all  familiar  with  the  man  from 
Missouri;  use  his  methods  and  majse 
your  business  for  the  last  year  "show 
you."  This  can  easily  be  done,  be- 
cause there  is  no  part  of  it  that  you 
are  not  familiar  with.  For  instance,  if 
some  particular  house  in  your  range  has 
fallen  behind  another  in  production,  all 
things  being  equal  of  course,  there  is 
certainly  a  reason.    The  fault  may  have 


been  with  you  or  it  may  have  been  with 
the  house  itself;  perhaps  the  heating 
outfit  may  have  been  at  fault.  Above 
all  things,  locate  the  fault  and  eradi- 
cate it.  Don 't  start  another  season 
under  the  same  conditions. 

Conditions  Changed. 

The  day  wlien  you  can  go  along  in 
this  business  with  your  clutch  in  neu- 
tral is  forever  gone.  In  these  days  of 
business  efiiciency  there  is  just  one  po- 
sition for  the  man  who  grows  flowers 
for  a  livelihood  and  that  is  with  a 
steady  nerve,  a  strong  hand  on  the 
wheel,  eyes  ever  ahead  and  the  clutch 
in  high  gear.  This  may  sound  like  joy 
riding,  but  it  is  that  quality  of  busi- 
ness joy  riding  that  will  not  bring  dis- 
aster instead  of  joy. 

As  we  look  back  over  the  last  year 
there  is  one  word  that  holds  a  most 
conspicuous  place  in  this  history.  It  is 
"shortage."  All  of  us  can  recall  that 
from  the  time  the  chrysanthemum  crop 
closed  last  fall  the  cry  has  been  from 
Maine  to  California,  "More  plants, 
more  cut  flowers."  Solomon  in  his 
proverbs  tells  us,  "The  horseleach  hath 
two  daughters,  crying,  'Give,  give'." 
It  is  not  my  intention  to  liken  the  re- 
tailers to  these  daughters,  but  anyone 
who  spent  much  time  around  wholesale 
florists '  establishments  last  winter  will 
realize  that  they  were  in  much  the  same 
positioiv  and,  like  the  daughters,  were 
not  satisfied. 

The  point  I  wish  to  emphasize  is,  can 
you  not  increase  your  production  next 


season?  No  doubt  some  of  you  have 
read  the  signs  of  the  times  and  will  en- 
ter next  season  with  more  glass,  but 
if  for  one  reason  or  another  you 
have  not  done  this,  can  you  n'ot  by  in- 
tensive cultural  methods  speed  up  pro- 
duction? Now  is  the  time  to  at  least 
map  out  your  plans. 

Scarcity  Last  Fall. 

Remember  the  scarcity  of  blooming 
plants  last  Christmas  and  the  prices 
they  brought?  Well,  there  is  just  one 
person  who  will  keep  history  from  re- 
peating itself  and  he  is  the  grower. 
While  the  extremely  high  prices  of  last 
season  were  most  attractive  and  easy  to 
obtain,  and  I  am  charging  no  one  with 
profiteering,  it  was  simply  a  case  of 
supply  and  demand  regulating  the  mar- 
ket. The  florist  was  simply  lucky  that 
there  was  so  much  money  in  circulation. 
But  let  us  remember  that  conditions  are 
going  to  be  more  normal  during  the 
coming  season  and  values  are  going  to 
be  studied  more.  It  will  be  up  to  the 
grower,  if  he  wants  to  see  the  industry 
prosper,  to  meet  these  changed  condi- 
tions. This  can  only  be  done  by  a  pro- 
duction in  keeping  with  the  demand. 

Let  us  remember  that  there  are  more 
flowers  being  used  today  than  ever  be- 
fore in  the  history  of  the  business. 
There  are  two  reasons  for  this:  The 
first  is,  no  doubt,  the  war  and  the 
greatly  increased  circulation  of  money. 
Big  profits  and  high  wages  gave  a  class 
of  people  the  opportunity  to  indulge  in 
flowers  who  never  could  to  any  extent 
before.  This  class  became  patrons  of 
the  florists  and  are  today  a  part  of  the 
flower-buying  public  and  we  want  to 
keep  them  as  such.  But  money  is  not 
flowing  into  their  coffers  with  the  same 
ease  that  it  did  a  year  ago.  They  are 
becoming  more  prudent  and  experience 
has  taught   them  something  of  values. 

The  second  reason  is  advertising. 
How  muc^  has  the  national  advertising 
campaign  had  to  do  with  making  this 
great  army  of  flower  buyers?  While  I 
am  a  stanch .  believer  in  local  adver- 
tising, at  the  time  that  this  part  of  the 
public  was  being  taught  to  "Say  It 
with  Flowers"  the  national  campaign 
was  the  only  systematic  one  in  the 
country. 

These  are  just  a  few  hints.  I  could 
go  on  indefinitely.  You  are  in  an  in- 
dustry that  bids  fair  to  be  one  of  the 
greatest  in  this  country.  The  Rubicon 
lias  been  crossed.  The  future  will  be 
just  what  you  choose  to  make  it.

The  Market. 

Outdoor  flowers  are  beginning  to 
come  into  the  market,  although  not  in 
great  numbers.  Business  has  been  good 
during  the  last  six  weeks.  Excessively 
hot  weather  damaged  stock  somewhat 
and  hurried  some  kinds  along  too  fast. 
Peonies  were  good  for  only  a  short  time 
because  of  the  heat. 

Three  Flower  Shows. 

-J  Three  small  flower  shows  were  held 
in  the  Twin  Cities  in  June  and  were 
good  advertisements  for  the  trade. 
The  Northwestern  National  bank,  of 
Minneapolis,  put  on  a  good  iris  show 
and  the  following  week  the  First  Na- 
tional bank,  of  St.  Paul,  put  on  a  good 
peony  show   for   two   days.     D.   W.    C.

blooms  for  this  show. 

The  Minnesota  State  Horticultural 
Society  held  its  summer  picnic  and 
flower  show  at  University  Farm,  St. 
Paul,  June  19.  About  2,000  vases  of 
flowers  were  shown.  Peonies  and  peren- 
nials were  there  in  quantity,  almost 
filling  the  large  gymnasium.  D.  W.  C. 
Ruff,  of  Bald  Eagle;  A.  C.  Amy,  of  St. 
Paul,  and  H.  F.  Baker,  of  Minneapolis, 
made  some  fine  exhibits  of  peonies  and 
perennial  flowers.  From  1,000  to  1,500 
people  visited  the  show  during  the  day; 
this  was  not  so  many  aa  usual,  because 
of  the  rain. 

Various  Notes. 

A.  W,  Lemke  is  moving  into  new  quar-

Last  week  was  one  continuous  rain. 
Boads  are  bad  and  it  has  had  some  effect 
on  business.  Crops  have  not  been  se-

The  Minnesota  State  Florists'  Asso-

also  plans,  in  conjunction  with  the 
Minneapolis  Florists'  Club,  to  have  a 
picnic  at  Wildwood  park  early  in  Au- 
gust. 

Greenhouse  men  have  been  busy  dur- 
ing the  last  week  or  two  in  getting

scarce  and  prices  arc  too  high  for  the

Please  tell  me  what  is  the  trouble

and  blast.  What  can  I  do  to  remedy 
this  condition  t  A.    N.   B. — Ind. 


This  blight  is'  often  due  to  climatic 
conditions,  such  as  extreme  heat  fol- 
lowed by  low  temperatures.  It  is  espe- 
cially likely  to  attack  plants  which 
have  not  been  divided  and  replanted 
for  several  years.  Spraying  with  Bor- 
deaux mixture  is  suggested  as  a  good 
preventive  of  this  trouble,  but  it  must 
be   applied   before   blight   sets   in.

This  rot  or  blight  is  quite  prevalent 
this  season,  owing  to  the  damp,  sunless

EDWABD  J.  McCALLUM. 

UNIQUELY  celebrating  his  twenty-third  birthday,  September  1,  1908,  Edward 
J.  McCallum  established  a  wholesale  cut  flower  business  known  as  the 
McCallum  Co.,  at  137  Seventh  street,  Pittsburgh.  This,  too,  in  the  midst  of 
the  only  too  well  remembered  financial  panic.  Most  of  the  wise  ones  shook  their 
heads,  and  there  were  many  times  when  young  McCallum  thought  these  same  wise 
ones  demonstrated  their  wisdom  in  shaking  their  heads.  Ere  long,  however 
business  began  to  flourish  and  at  the  present  time  the  McCallum  Co.  is  doing  a 
country-wide  business,  operating  two  basket  factories,  a  willow  furniture  factory, 
wireworks,  two  artificial  flower  factories  and  a  range  of  greenhouses  some  dis- 
tance out  of  the  city  of  Pittsburgh.  In  addition  to  these,  prosperous  branch 
stores  have  been  established  in  New  York,  Detroit,  Cleveland,  Cincinnati  and  San 
Juan,  Porto  Rico,  and  purchasing  offices  in  Paris  and  Hamburg,  in  all  employing 
227  people.  Mr.  McCallum  is  married  and  lives  in  Pittsburgh  in  an  attractive 
home  on  Perryville  avenue,  north  side,  formerly  known  as  Old  Allegheny.

PROPAGATING  SHRUBS. 

When  is  the  proper  time  to  propagate 
hardy  shrubs,  such  as  weigela,  spiraea, 
hydrangea,  philadelphus,  ribes,  etc? 
What  care  do  they  need  and  how  large 
should  the  cuttings  be?         0.  B.— O. 


Half-ripened  wood  of  all  the  shrubs 
named  will  root  readily  if  put  in  at 
once.  Take  small  cuttings,  preferablv 
with  heels,  and  remove  all  leaves  but 
top  ones;  the  latter  ean  be  half  re- 
moved. Put  the  cuttings  in  sand  or 
sandy   loam.      Use   a    cohlframe,   which 


must  be  kept  shaded,  and  frequently 
give  light  sprayings  until  the  cuttings 
are  rooted,  when  more  light  and  air  can 
be  gradually  admitted.  Later  the  sashes 
can  be  removed.  Bunches  of  ripened 
shoots  can  also  be  taken  in  early  winter, 
packed  in  damp  sand  over  winter  and 
lined  out  in  spring  in  nursery  rows, 
burying  the  cuttings  two-thirds  their 
depth  and  firming  them  well.  Cuttings 
an  average  of  eight  to  nine  inches  long 
are  desirable  for  mature  wood;  much 
shorter  ones  with  two  or  three  eyes  are 
more  desirable  to  use  now.  C.  W.

stocky?  L.  E.  B.— N.  Y. 


You  do  not  state  whether  the  chrys- 
anthemums are  large-flowered  varieties 
or  pompons,  or  for  what  purpose  the^ 
plants  are  intended.  If  it  is  your  in- 
tention to  grow  bush  plants  in  pots, 
pinching  can  be  carried  on  until  about 
August  1  to  keep  the  plants  dwarf  and 
stocky.  For  bench  growing  for  cut 
blooms  the  shoots  can  be  pinched  back 
until  July  1.  Then  three  of  the  strong- 
est shoots  should  be  allowed  to  go  on 
to  produce  the  blooms  and  the  rest  re- 
moved. Three  blooms  are  all  a  plant 
should  be  allowed  to  develop.  The  same 
plan  can  also  be  followed  with  the 
pompon  varieties.  Pinch  back  the 
growth  until  July  1;  then  allow  the 
plant  to  develop  four  or  five  sprays  of 
flowers.  M.  P. 


MUMS  FOR  THANKSGIVINO. 

I  should  like  some  information  regard- 
ing chrysanthemums.  Could  you  give 
me  the  names  of  three  good  late  varie- 
ties to  bloom  at  Thanksgiving  and  later, 
in  white,  yellow  and  pink?  I  want  to 
grow  two  or  three  flowers  per  plant. 
1  should  like  also  to  have  the  names  of 
three  good  pot  mums  in  white,  yellow 
and  pink,  to  grow  in  the  field  and  pot 
about  September  and  bloom  October  15 
to  November  1.  I  do  not  want  Caprice, 
as  it  blooms  too  late  here.  Is  it  true 
that  if  white  and  pink  dahlias  are 
planted  in  the  same  patch,  the  white  get 
pinkish?  A.  L. — Mo. 


The  following  varieties  of  chrysan- 
themums arc  the  most  largely  grown  for 
late  blooming:  Pink  and  White  Seide- 
witz,  Jeanne  Nonin,  Maud  Dean,  Ham- 
burg Late  Pink;  Pink,  White  and  Yel- 
low Chadwick.  The  Pink  and  White 
Seidewitz  are  perhaps  m6re  largely 
grown  than  any  others  for  the  New 
York  market,  although  in  some  sections 
of  the  country  Chadwicks  are  the 
standby  for  Thanksgiving  and  later. 

Eegarding  the  varieties  for  pots, 
since  Caprice  is  too  late,  the  following 
can  be  lifted  from  the  field  and  potted 
September  1:  Belle  Mauve,  pink; 
Source  d'Or  and  Cranfordia  in  yellow, 
and  Alice  Day  in  white. 

It  is  not  true  that  planting  pink  and 
white  dahlias  in  the  same  bed  or  near 
each  other  will  cause  the  white  varieties 
to  show  pink.  Like  chrysanthemums  or 
any  other  flower  of  this  type,  when 
dahlias  get  too  old  or  are  left  on  the 
plants  too  long,  a  white  variety  will 
show  pink  from  age.  This  is  possibly 
the  reason  you  heard  that  white  varie- 
ties turn  pink  when  planted  near  pink 
varieties.  Fundamentally,  white  dah- 
lias are  white  and  pink  dahlias  are  pink 
and,  no  matter  how  near  they  are  grown 
together,  one  will  not  affect  the  other. 
The  only  time  that  dahlias  change  in 
color  or  type  is  when  they  are  developed 
from  seed.     This  is  the  way  new  varie- 


ties are  secured,  by  crossing  the  old  va- 
rieties and  planting  the  seed  produced 
from  this  crossing.  C.  H.  T. 


SNAPDRAGONS  FOR  EASTER. 

Will  you  kindly  give  me  some  infor- 
mation on  growing  snapdragons  under 
glass  for  Easter  forcing? 

W.  C.  S.— 111. 


in  separate  colors.  There  are  also  some 
named  sorts.  Clear,  bright  pink  is  far 
the  best  seller.  A  moderate  call  exists 
for  white,  yellow  and  red.  For  Me- 
morial day  all  bright  colors  are  in  great 
demand. 

A  temperature  of  45  to  50  degrees  at 
night  suits  snapdragons.  To  prevent 
rust,  be  careful  to  wet  the  foliage  as  lit- 
tle as  possible,  particularly  during  dark 
weather,  and  keep  a  moderately  dry 
atmosphere.  Plants  will  grow  well  in 
either  raised  benches  or  solid  beds.  For 
midwinter  flowering  benches  are  pref- 
erable. For  spring,  flowering  beds 
give  the  better  results.  Eun  the  plants 
somewhat  on  the  dry  side  during  mid- 
winter. As  spring  advances  an  occa- 
sional dose  of  liquid  manure  or  a  sur- 
face dressing  of  old  manure  will  be 
found  stimulating.  C.  W. 


Easter  is  early  in  1921.  The  date,  I 
believe,  is  March  27.  Growers  of  lilies, 
snapdragons  and  other  crops  have  to 
make  preparations  some  time  ahead 
and  in  your  case  it  would  be  advisable 
to  sow  the  seeds  or  take  cuttings  from 
August  15  to  September  10.  Seedlings 
possess  the  greater  vigor  and  are  freer 
from  rust  and  other  diseases  than  cut- 
tings. When  the  seedlings  are  of  sufii- 
cient  size,  prick  off  into  flats;  later  pot 
them  off  singly  in  3-inch  pots,  let  the 
plants  run  up  to  flower  and  then  pinch 
back  fairly  close  to  the  ground.  Do 
not  pinch  the  growths  while  soft,  or  the 
result  will  be  weak  breaks  which  will 
flower  little,  if  at  all.  This  is  an  im- 
jjortant  point  and  one  which  many 
have  not  yet  grasped. 

Any  good  soil,  such  as  mums,  carna- 
tions or  roses  will  grow  in,  will  answer 
for  snapdragons.  You  can  use  them  as 
a  crop  to  follow  mums,  giving  the  soil 
a  top-dressing  of  well  rotted  manure, 
sheep  manure  or  bone.  Plant  8x10 
inches  apart.  I  prefer  to  use  plants  of 
the  intermediate  strain,  which  are  of 
medium  height.     These  are  obtainable 


SCALE   ON  FERNS. 

I  appeal  to  you  for  advice  on  how  to 
fight  the  tiny  white  insects  that  are  in- 
festing my  Boston  and  Eoosevelt  ferns. 
Some  time  ago  I  had  similar  trouble 
and  it  was  said  to  be  scale,  but  I  do  not 
think  that  this  is  scale.  I  am  sending 
you  some  infested  leaves.  What  can  I 
do  to  rid  the  ferns  of  this  pest? 

E.  R.  B.— Tex. 

The  nephrolepis  frond  has  been  ex- 
amined microscopically  and  shows 
plainly  th^  fern  scale,  Hemichionaspis 
aspidistrse,  the  female  insect  being  some- 
what oval  and  yellowish  brown  in  color, 
while  the  male  scale  is  white,  elongated 
in  shape  and  with  two  lines  down  the 
back.  The  males  are  produced  in  much 
larger  numbers  than  the  females  and  are 
the  tiny  white  insects  which  are  re- 
ferred to.  This  insect  is  troublesome 
to  fern  growers  and  difiicult  to  exter- 
minate, but  careful  and  continued 
spraying  with  or  dipping  in  tobacco  ex- 
tract will  keep  it  within  limits.

SOIL  FOR  CARNATIONS. 

We  intend  to  change  our  soil  and  re- 
pair our  benches.  We  shall  put  new  soil 
in  the  benches  the  first  part  of  July  and 
our  carnation  plants  will  not  be  ready 
for  the  benches  until  the  first  part  of 
August.  If  new  soil  is  put  in  the 
benches,  is  there  any  danger  of  the  soil 
being  damaged  in  any  way  by  not  plant- 
ing at  once?  Would  it  be  best  to  keep 
the  soil  slightly  watered,  or  just  to  let 
it  dry  out  and  when  ready  to  plant  to 
water  lightly? 

In  building  new  benches,  how  much 
space  should  we  leave  between  the 
boards  on  the  bottom  of  the  benches  if 
the  lumber  is  a  little  damp  and  how 
much  if  thoroughly  dry,  to  allow  for 
proper  drainage  for  carnations? 

S.  B.— 111. 

You  will  make  no  mistake  in  filling 
your  benches  any  time  you  get  ready 
to  do  so.  Level  them  off  as  though  you 
were   going   to   plant   immediately   and 


then  leave  them  until  you  are  ready  to 
plant.  If  the  soil  has  become  quite 
dry,  water  thoroughly  three  or  four 
days  before  you  intend  to  plant  and  be 
sure  the  soil  is  moist  to  the  bottom.  By 
doing  this  you  will  be  able  to  have  the 
soil  in  just  the  right  state  of  moisture 
to  receive  the  plants,  which  should  be 
about  the  same  as  you  like  to  have  it 
for  potting. 

The  distance  between  the  bottom 
boards  depends  somewhat  on  how  you 
fill  your  benches.  The  more  space  you 
can  leave  between  the  boards  the  bet- 
ter, as  long  as  the  soil  does  not  fall 
through  the  cracks.  If  you  place  a  layer 
of  strawy  manure  over  the  bottom  be- 
fore filling  in  the  soil,  the  cracks  may 
be  anywhere  from  a  half-inch  to  an 
inch  in  width.  We  consider  this  laypr 
of  manure  a  good  thing.  By  the  time 
the  roots  work"  through  the  soil  and 
reach  the  bottom,  the  plants  are  in 
shape  to  take  up  the  little  boost  af- 
forded by  the  manure.  A,  F.  J.  B.

CALLAS  IN  SUMMER. 

I  have  a  number  of  callas  in  tlie 
bench  and  I  intend  to  lift  them,  change 
the  soil  and  then  replant  them  in  the 
fall.  Kindly  tell  me  how  to  treat  the 
plants  during  the  summer.  Should  they 
be  allowed  to  dry  and  should  they  be 
placed  in  a  cellar,  or  should  they  be 
transplanted  to  the  field  during  the 
summer?  I.  B. — Mich. 


POPULAR   GERANIUMS. 

I  am  sending  you  some  geranium 
blooms.  Can  you  name  them?  Will  you 
name  the  salmon,  the  red  and  the  red 
and  white  varieties  which  would  be  the 
most  profitable  to  grow?  "Which  is  most 
profitable  to  grow,  asparagus  or  gera- 
niums, or  is  it  more  profitable  to  grow 
lettuce  than  either  of  those?  We  are 
at  present  growing  vegetable  plants. 

J.  C— O. 


The  geranium  flowers  arrived  so  dried 
up  that  it  was  impossible  to  tell  the 
names  of  them.  The  six  most  popular 
and  profitable  varieties  of  geraniums 
are:  Beaute  Poitevine,  salmon  pink;  S. 
A.  Nutt,  dark  red;  Alphonse  Eicard, 
scarlet;  Mme.  Buchner,  white;  Jean 
Viaud,  rose  pink,  and  Jean  Oberle,  flesh 
pink. 

The  question  of  which  would  be  the 
more  profitable  to  grow,  geraniums  or 
Asparagus  plumosus  and  Asparagus 
Sprengeri,  depends  greatly  upon  your 
location  and  the  effort  you  put  into 
them.  Each  of  the  items  mentioned  is 
being  grown  profitably  by  growers  all 
over  the  country,  but  you  must  be  gov- 
erned entirely  by  the  conditions  under 
which  you  have  to  work.  The  same 
answer  applies  to  growing  lettuce.  There 
are  a  large  number  of  greenhouses 
throughout  the  country  operated  profit- 
ably in  the  production  of  lettuce  and  the 
same  can  be  said  of  geraniums. 

M.  P. 

ROOTING  GERANIUM  CUTTINGS. 

Kindly  tell  me  how  to  strike  gera- 
nium cuttings  successfully.  I  have  prop- 
agated many  thousands  of  geranium 
cuttings  in  England,  but  I  find  condi- 
tions different  here  in  Nebraska.  Last 
year  I  had  a  nice  stock  to  get  my  cut- 
tings from,  but  my  strike  was  not  sat- 
isfactory. The  weather  is  extremely 
hot  with  us  at  tliat  time.  I  have  refer- 
ence to  fall  cuttings.         D.  K. — Neb. 


Our  American  autumn  is  quite  hot 
and  if  geranium  cuttings  are  taken  as 
early  as  in  England  the  greater  propor- 
tion will  damp  off.  All  newcomers  make 
mistakes  for  one  or  two  seasons,  until 
they  appreciate  the  climatic  differences 
of  the  two  countries.  Delay  putting 
your  cuttings  in  until  the  end  of  Sep- 
tember or  even  October.  By  that  time 
the  excessively  hot  weather  has  usually 
passed  and  cooler  nights  are  the  rule. 
Trim  all  cuttings  quite  bare  and  leave 
only  small  leaves  on  each.  Insert  in 
clear,  sharp  sand,  soak  well  with  water 
and  keep  the  cuttings  in  full  sun,  never 
shading  them.  If  the  cuttings  are  at 
all  sappy,  it  is  a  good  plan  to  let  them 
lie  on  the  potting  bench  twenty-four 
hours  before  putting  in  sand.  Remem- 
ber that  the  later  you  put  in  cuttings, 
the  better  ripened  they  will  be  and  the 
smaller  proportion  will  damp  off.  Of 
course,  in  the  case  of  frost,  some  protec- 


tion of  stock  plants  may  be  needed  be- 
fore the  cuttings  are  taken.        C.  W. 

DISEASED  GERANIUM  LEAVES. 

I  am  sending  you  a  few  leaves  of 
Geranium  S.  A.  Nutt.  Can  you  toll 
me  what  causes  the  rust  on  the  leaves? 
It  looks  as  if  something  had  eaten  them 
in  spots.  This  condition  exists  only  on 
this  variety.  The  others  are  not  af- 
fected. C.  B.— Pa. 


The  callas  when  lifted  should  be 
dried  off  and  kept  in  a  dry  state  until 
planting  time  arrives  again.  When 
grown  in  pots  the  best  plan  is  simply 
to  lay  the  plants  on  their  sides  in  a 
warm,  sunny  spot.  In  the  case  of  your 
lifted  plants  I  should  pack  them  closely 
in  boxes  and  pack  some  soil  or  sand 
about  them,  placing  the  boxes  on  an 
unused  greenhouse  bench  or  in  a  shed. 
It  would  be  better  to  let  them  havo 
some  sun  than  to  place  them  in  a  cel- 
lar, which  would  naturally  be  rather 
cool  and  damp.  C.  W. 


The  geraniums  are  affected  by  leaf- 
spot  disease.  As  you  state  that  the  S. 
A.  Nutt  variety  is  the  only  one  affected, 
it  may  be  that  your  stock  of  Nutt  is 
run  down  or  weakened  in  some  way.  It 
would  not  be  wise  to  propagate  from 
plants  so  badly  affected  as  the  plants 
must  be  from  which  these  specimen 
leaves  were  taken.  I  should  suggest 
that  you  purchase  cleai;  stock  as  a 
foundation  for  your  next  season 's  supply 
of  plants.  M.  P. 


CALENDULAS  FOR  CHRISTMAS. 

When  should  calendulas  be  sown  and

small  pots,  the  first  week  in  September.

Cliaxles  Willis  Ward. 


Charles  Willis  Ward,  for  years  a  con- 
spicuous figure  in  the  florists'  trade, 
died  at  the  age  of  63  at  his  home,  in 
Eureka,  Cal.,  Thursday,  June  24,  as  the 
result  of  the  culmination  of  heart 
trouble  of  many  years'  standing.  He 
was  thought  dying  two  months  ago,  but 
recovered  sufficiently  to  leave  the  house 
Saturday,  June  19,  to  visit  the  nursery. 
After  walking  three-quarters  of  a  mile 
he  collapsed  and  gradually  sank.  He 
was  unconscious  Wednesday,  June  23, 
and  died  the  following  day.  Mr.  Ward 
is  survived  by  his  wife,  his  son,  David 
Ward,  who  is  head  of  the  Cottage  Gar- 
dens, at  Queens,  N.  Y.,  and  two  daugh-

Charles  Willis  Ward,  at  Eurtka. 

lers.  Just  before  his  death  he  closed 
a  deal  for  the  sale  of  his  Klamath  river 
timber  projjerly  for  over  a  half  million 
ilollars. 

Charles  Willis  Ward  was  born  in  a 
lumber  camp,  at  Mount  I'leasant,  Mich., 
in  1857.  He  received  his  education  in 
the  schools  of  Worcester,  Mass.,  and 
Detroit,  Mich.  From  the  age  of  17  to 
27  he  engaged  in  the  logging  and  lum- 
ber business.  In  1885  he  went  to 
Europe  to  study  forestry  conditions  in 
Germany  in  connection  with  his  voca- 
tion. Warning  from  physicians  of  ill 
health  which  might  lead  to  a  speedy 
death  compelled  him  to  give  up  this 
work.  He  subsequently  took  up  the 
florists'  business,  less  as  work  than  as 
play. 

Mr,  Ward  often  told  the  story  of  his 
seeing  a  bunch  of  carnations  in  a  Greek 
jjcddler's  hand  oii  the  street  in  New 
^'ork  city  and  of  being  inspired  to  try 
to  do  for  that  flower  what  had  al- 
ready been  done  for  the  chrysanthe- 
mum. The  Cottage  Gardens,  at  Queens, 
X.   Y.,  were   established   in    1890.      Mr. 


Ward  had  been  engaged  in  growing  car- 
nations in  a  small  way  for  three  years 
previously  at  East  Moriches,  N.  Y,  Pur- 
chasing the  Nicholas  Hallock  farm,  on 
the  Eocky  Hill  road,  near  the  village  of 
Creedmore,  in  the  fall  of  1889,  Mr. 
Ward  took  possession  of  the  property 
June  1,  1890,  and  commenced  the  erec- 
tion of  a  range  of  carnation  houses 
with  the  short  span  to  the  south.  The 
succeeding  year  the  range  of  glass  was 
enlarged  and  for  ten  years  thereafter 
new  glass  was  added  each  year.  In 
1900  the  original  houses,  with  the  short 
span  to  the  south,  were  torn  down  and 
replaced  with  wide  steel-frame  struc- 
tures, among  the  first  of  their  kind  to 
be  built,  and  they  were  one  of  the  rea- 
sons for  many  visitors  at  the  place. 

Carnations  were  the  chief  greenhouse 
product  from  the  beginning  at  this 
establishment.  In  1889  Mr,  Ward 
joined  with  the  late  Fred  Dorner,  of 
La  Fayette,  Ind.,  in  growing  and  intro- 
ducing the  Dorner  seedling  carnations. 
He  also  began  the  raising  of  seedling 
carnations  himself.  He  later  laid  plans 
to  enter  the  nursery  business  and  com- 
menced collecting  and  accumulating  a 
stock  of  peonies.  In  1901  the  growing 
of  nursery  stock  had  progressed  to  such 
an  extent  that  nursery  sales  were  be- 
gun in  a  moderate  way.  The  nursery 
business  thereafter  grew  steadily. 

Mr.  Ward  was  awarded  many  gold 
and  silver  medals  for  seedling  carna- 
tions of  his  origination.  He  won  the 
American  Carnation  Society's  gold  and 
silver  medals  several  times.  He  was 
the  first  winner  of  the  Fred  Dorner 
memorial  medal  and  he  was  also  award- 
ed the  Lawson  gold  medal  several 
times. 

Among  the  numerous  seedlings  in- 
troduced by  him  the  most  conspicuous 
have  been  Mrs.  C.  W,  Ward,  Matchless, 
Governor  Eoosevelt,  Alma  Ward,  Gen- 
eral Maceo,  General  Gomez,  Glacier, 
Harry  Fenn,  Lieutenant  Peary,  The 
President,  Golden  Beauty,  Mrs,  Theo- 
dore Roosevelt,  Mrs.  Tom  Harvey, 
Howard  Gould,  Cottage  Maid  and 
Crystal  White. 

In  May,  1913,  Mr.  Ward  was  called 
to  Eureka,  Cal,,  on  legal  business  in 
connection  with  his  timber  interests 
there.  He  had  to  remain  -there  a  year. 
Taking  a  liking  to  climatic  and  soil 
conditions,  he  commenced  experiment- 
ing just  as  he  had  commenced  experi- 
menting at  East  Moriches  nearly  thirty 
years  before. 

At -Eureka  Mr,  Ward  organized  the 
Cottage  Gardens  Nurseries,  a  corpora- 
tion of  which  he  became  president  and 
general  manager.  The  property  com- 
prised a  220-acre  stock  farm  at  Car- 
lotta,  a  nursery  of  sixty-six  acres  at 
Eden,  just  outside  of  Eureka,  a  bulb 
farm  at  McKinleyville  and  a  sales  of- 
fice at  San  Jose.  The  other  officers  of 
the  corporation  were:  Vice-president, 
William  DeGraaff;  secretary-treasurer, 
K.  L.  Brown;  operating  manager,  G.  B. 
Morris;  sales  manager,  W.  B.  Clarke. 

Mr.  Ward  bought  the  entire  stock  of 
the  Holland  Bulb  Farm,  at  Victoria, 
B.  C,  consisting  of  1,500,000  bulbs, 
from  W.  J.  Van  Aalst,  who  became 
superintendent  of  the  bulb  farm.  There 
were  grown  tulips  and  narcissi,  which, 
it  was  expected,  would  compete  with 
the  bulbs  imported  from  Holland,  At 
the  Eden  nurseries  the  growing  of 
azaleas,  rhododendroire,  boxwood  and 
conifers  was  undertaken,  in  an  effort 
to    provide    native   stock    which    would

equal  that  imported  from  Belgium. 
Several  million  plants  were  in  the  prop- 
agating houses  and  in  the  fields  at 
Eden  at  one  time.  The  magnitude  of 
fi  the  undertaking  made  this  work  of 
Charles  Willis  Ward  watched  by  the 
whole  trade  with  great  interest. 

Local  difficulties  forced  the  enter- 
prise at  Eureka  to  go  into  the  hands  of 
a  committee  of  creditors  in  December, 
1918,  since  when  it  has  been  run  by  G. 
Van  den  Abeele  as  receiver,  at  Eureka, 
and  W.  B.  Clarke  as  sales  manager,  at 
San  Jose.  At  that  time  Mr.  Ward  filed 
assets  of  $1,116,000  and  liabilities  of 
$277,106.47. 

Mr.  Ward  was  especially  active  in 
the  American  Carnation  Society,  Ameri- 
can Peony  Society  and  Society  of 
American  Florist;9,  serving  as  president 
of  the  first  two  organizations.  He  was 
also  a  life  member  of  the  New  York 
Academy  of  Science,  Brooklyn  Academy 
of  Science,  Horticultural  Society  of 
New  York,  Massachusetts  Horticultural 
Society,  Pennsylvania  Horticultural 
Society  and  the  National  Geographical 
Society,  and  a  member  of  the  California 
Nurserymen 's  Association,  Pacific  Coast 
Nurserymen 's  Association,  American 
Pomological  Society,  California  Forest 
Protection  Association,  Audubon  So- 
ciety and  Rivers  and  Harbors  Congress. 

Bobert  Malcolm  Craig. 

Robert  Malcolm  Craig,  the  eldest  son 
of  W.  N,  Craig,  superintendent  of 
Faulkner  Farm,  Brookline,  Mass.,  and 
Boston  representative  of  The  Review, 
was  accidently  drowned  in  the  Charles 
river  at  Dedham,  Mass.,  June  26.  He 
planned  to  pass  the  night  in  canoes 
with  some  friends  and  his  body  was 
found  below  his  boat  in  only  two  feet 
of  water.  As  he  was  a  good  swimmer, 
it  is  believed  he  rolled  out  of  the  boat 
in  his  sleep  and  became  entangled  in 
the  mud  and  herbage. 

He  had  just  completed  his  first  year 
of  study  at  Northeastern  College,  where 
he  had  taken  up  chemical  engineering. 
He  had  just  celebrated  his  eighteenth 
birthday  and  was  a  youth  of  great 
promise. 

Funeral  services  were  held  from  his 
late  home  at  Faulkner  Farm,  Brookline, 
June  29.  A  great  wealth  of  floral 
tributes  came  from  friends,  including 
many  in  the  florists'   trade. 


REMOVING  DIRT  FROM  GLASS. 


Use  of  Acids  Necessary. 

Cleaning  greenhouse  glass,  a  job  that 
many  growers  wish  to  undertake  at  this 
time,  is  sometimes  not  an  easy  task. 
The  cleaning  of  that  which  is  in  the 
sashes  and  that  which  is  not  are  two 
different  problems.  There  are  those 
who,  because  of  the  high  cost  of  every- 
thing connected  with  the  erection  and 
maintenance  of  a  greenhouse,  are  using 
second-hand  materials  and  a  large 
amount  of  old  glass  is  being  used  now. 
This  old  glass,  for  the  most  part,  is 
dirty,  having  been  taken  out  of  the 
sashes  without  thought  being  given  to 
cleaning  it. 

There  have  been  manv  formulas  used 
in  getting  the  dirt  off"  glass,  but  the 
basis  of  most  formulas  is  hydrofluoric 
.acid  It  ig  diluted  with  water.  The 
method  that  suits  one  person  may  not 
be  suited  to  another,  so  several  methods 
that  have  been  used  by  growers  are 
given.     In  a  ^^^^  when  even  lye  would

not  remove  dirt  on  glass,  corrosive  sub- 
limate was  used.  But  this,  as  well  as 
the  rest  of  the  "removers,"  must  be 
handled  carefully,  as  it  will  burn  the 
hands. 

Another  formula  used  successfully  by 
a  grower  is  to  slake  three  pounds  of 
quicklime  with  water  and  add  one 
pound  of  American  pearlash,  making 
the  mixture  about  the  consistency  of 
thick  paint.  Apply  this  to  the  glass 
and  let  it  remain  twenty-four  hours. 
Then  remove  it  with  a  stiff  brush. 

Keep  Hands  from  Acid.  "^ 

Muriatic  acid  has  been  known  to 
"turn  the  trick"  and  will  not  harm  the 
glass,  as  some  acids  do.  The  directions 
are  to  mix  the  acid  half  and  half  with 
water.  Put  it  in  some  big  wooden  ves- 
sel and  put  the  glass  in  it  for  about 
fifteen  minutes,  when  all  dirt  will  be 
dissolved  and  it  must  then  be  washed 
off  with  a  cloth  and  water.  The  usual 
warning  is  given:  Don't  get  your 
hands  in  the  solution. 

A  different  method  of  applying  mu- 
riatic acid  is  the  following:  For  loose 
glass  have  a  wooden  trough  larger  than 
the  glass.  Take  the  pure  acid  in  an 
earthenware  jar  and  apply  it  to  the 
glass  with  a  swab,  or  a  piece  of  stick 
with  a  rag  tied  o.n  the  end.  Lay  the 
glass  on  a  box  or  a  table,  level  with 
the  trough.  Apply  the  acid  evenly  and 
rub  only  a  little.  Turn  the  glass  over 
by  means  of  another  stick  and  rub  the 
other  side.  Then  slide  it  into  the  trough, 
into  which  a  stream  of  water  is  run- 
ning continuously  from  a  hose.  After 
applying  plenty  of  water,  you  may  then 
remove  the  glass  with  your  hands  and 
set  the  panes  on  edge  to  dry  off.  This 
acid  is  said  to  remove  anything. 


Care  must  always  be  taken,  first,  with 
the  handling  and,  secondly,  as  to  the 
strength  of  the  acid.  The  operator 
must  use  good  rubber  gloves.  If  the 
acid  is  too  strong  the  glass  cleaned 
will  look  like  frosted  glass  and  will  be 
ruined  for  greenhouse  purposes. 

In  cleaning  glass  that  is  in  the  roof, 
the  process  is  more  complicated.  Care 
must  be  taken  not  to  injure  the  putty 
or  the  sashbars.  Acetic  acid  ia  said 
to  be  suitable,  especially  for  the  re- 
moval of  lime.  Apply  this  acid  with  a 
brush,  going  over  the  glass  two  or  three 
times  if  necessary,  and  the  dirt  and 
lime  will  be  softened  so  that  it  can  be 
readilv  scrubbed  off.

KESULTS. 

We  give  them.     You  get  them. 

We  both  have  them. 

It  is  better  to  grow  a  little  well  than 
to  grow  much  poorly. 

The  Lord  &  Burnham  Co.  has  discon- 
tinued its  Montreal  office. 

Bad  check  artists  are  working  their  old 
tricks  on  florists.     Be  on  your  guard. 

June  made  a  record.  The  trade  never 
had  done  so  much  business  in  the  month. 

Perseverance  will  get  coal ;  keep  at  it, 
with  a  smile,  but  don 't  bid  above  the  mar- 
ket. 

Don  't  fail  to  plan  a  vacation  trip  that 
includes  the  S.  A.  F.  convention  at  Cleve- 
land, August  17  to  19. 

There  are  reports  of  the  postponement 
of  several  greenhouse  building  projects 
for  the  reason  that  banking  credit  has 
been  withdrawn. 

Geranium  E,  G.  Hill  is  the  favorite 
variety  in  'the  St.  Louis  district,  large 
growers  reporting  the  call  for  Hill  is  as 
great  as  the  call  for  all  other  sorts  com- 
bined. 

Opportunities  presented  in  the  Wanted 
and  For  Sale  columns  of  The  Review  re- 
ceive particular  attention  under  present 
conditions.  Their  number  has  increased 
notably  of  late. 

There  are  indications  that  large  num- 
bers of  florists  who  grow  for  their  own 
retail  or  local  wholesale  trade,  and  who 
have  not  heretofore  forced  lilies,  will 
plant  some  for  next  Easter. 

June  unquestionably  was  an  unusually 
good  month  for  the  trade  and  there  is 
reason  to  believe  that  July  and  August 
will  be  better  than  ever  before  for  all 
those  who  continue  their  personal  efforts. 

There  were  geraniums  left  this  season, 
but  in  practically  every  case  it  was  stock 
which  showed  neglect  at  some  stage  of 
its  growth.  Many  growers  propagated 
more  than  they  were  able  to  care  for  at 
critical  stages  of  growth. 

Since  it  is  said  that  imitation  is  the 
sincerest  flattery,  reprinting  of  material 
from  these  columns  in  other  trade 
journals,  even  without  credit,  should  not, 
we  presume,  make  the  editor  feel  bad — 
the  editor  of  The  Review,  that  is,  not 
speaking  of  the  editor  who  reprints  with- 
out saying  so. 


It  will,  in  all  probability,  cost  more  to 
grow  flowers  before  it  costs  less  than  now. 

Glass  is  a  problem  for  those  who  would 
build,  but  pipe  is  even  more  difficult  to 
obtain. 

There  are  many  indications  that  con- 
siderable greenhouse  area  will  be  idle  dur- 
ing the  coming  winter,  with  the  probabil- 
ity that  the  midwinter  shortage  of  cut 
flowers  will  send  prices  even  higher  than 
last  season. 

The  thoughts  of  large  numbers  of  those 
in  the  trade  are  turned  toward  the  Pa- 
cific coast.  Rapid  as  has  been  the  growth 
there,  the  next  decade  seems  likely  to  see 
far  greater  development  of  our  trade  'a  in- 
terests along  the  western  ocean. 

White  Killarnet  on  the  growers' 
benches  is  the  sole  representative  of  a 
former  ruling  dynasty.  All  the  other 
members  of  the  large  family  have  been 
dropped  into  the  discard  where  quality 
stock  is  produced  for  wholesale  markets. 

Greenhouse  building  is  not  the  most 
simple  of  matters  these  days.  There  are 
delays  all  along  the  line,  principally  due 
to  transportation  difficulties,  with  the  re- 
sult that  many  growers  whose  work  has 
scarcely  begun  are  wondering  if  their 
houses  will  be  ready  in  time. 

Periodical  bulletins  of  trade  organiza- 
tions are  costly  undertakings  since  paper 
and  printing  prices  have  soared  so  high. 
I'o  be  worth  the  expense,  thfey  must  be 
valuable  either  as  propaganda  to  secure 
new  members  or  as  mediums  of  informa- 
tion  regarding  organization   matters. 


BED,  WHITE  AND  ELITE. 

Heretofore  The  Review  has  known 
only  one  phase  of  the  paper  shortage, 
that  connected  with  skyrocketing 
prices,  but  this  week  congested  trans- 
portation facilities  have  hit  the 
cherished  pink  part  a  blow  that  re- 
minds of  Fourth  of  July,  not  ;to  say 
Joseph's  coat.  There  is  a  six  weeks' 
supply  of  pink  paper  in  a  freight  yard 
not  fifteen  miles  from  the  pressroom, 
but  there  was  only  two-thirds  the  neces- 
sary quantity  in  the  warehouse  when 
press  time  came.  The  Review  is  printed 
on  sheets  almost  double  the  largest 
stock  size  in  the  paper  trade,  so  to  buy 
in  the  open  market,  in  case  of  tem- 
porary shortage,  is  next  to  impossible. 
A  few  reams  of  blue  paper  of  the  neces- 
sary size  were  picked  up,  but  the  rest 
of  fhe  shortage  had  to  be  made  up  with 
white.  So  any  reader  who  finds  his 
pink  part  variegated  this  week  will 
know  the  reason  why. 

Next  week  the  pink  part  will  be  all 
white  unless  the  New  York  Central 
lines  dig  out  that  car. 


CAN'T  INSUBE  GOODWILL. 

"You  can  insure  your  life  and  your 
health;  you  can  insure  your  home 
against  burglary,  your  valuables  against 
theft;  you  can  insure  your  store  against 
fire,  your  greenhouses  against  hail,  your 
crops  against  tornadoes,  your  shipments 
against  loss  and  your  credit  against 
fraud,  but  you  cannot  insure  the  good- 
will of  your  business  in  any  company 
on  earth." 

This  emphatic  way  of  putting  the 
necessity  for  fair  dealing  was  used  by 
an  advertising  man  before  the  conven- 
tion of  the  American  Association  of 
Nurserymen  at  Chicago  last  week.     It 


is  a  statement  that  can  be  heeded  by 
every  branch  of  business,  for  it  points 
out  that  the  biggest  asset  a  business 
has,  particularly  in  the  horticultural 
field,  is  something  that  is  so  slowly  built 
and  so  easily  destroyed  that  its  actual 
value  depends  upon  continued  and  un- 
interrupted attention  to  the  details  upon 
which  hinges  a  firm's  reputation  for 
honesty.  Good-will  established  today 
will  be  capitalized  at  greater  value  in 
years  when  business  is  not  so  good  as 
now.  So  it  pays  to  build  it  on  a  firm 
basis  today. 

UNDER  FALSE  COLOBS. 

In  a  time  when  help  is  as  scarce  as  it 
is  now,  references  of  a  new  employee 
are  not  scanned  so  closely  as  they 
sometimes  are.  Either  grower  or  re- 
tailer is  apt  to  put  a  man  in  a  more  or 
less  responsible  place  upon  his  own 
statement  of  his  ability.  Often  the  ap- 
plicant 's  allusion  to  a  well  known  estab- 
lishment where  he  has  worked  is  taken 
as  a  mark  of  his  ability,  without  in- 
quiry as  to  his  position  or  service  at 
that  place.  So  the  errand  boy  or  store 
helper  makes  pretensions  of  knowledge 
for  the  sake  of  securing  larger  wages. 
And  he  may  get  away  with  it  for  a  time. 

There  is,  however,  an  unjust  reflec- 
tion upon  establishments  whose  repu- 
tation is  unrightfully  used  by  appli- 
cants in  obtaining  positions  at  other 
places.  And  the  florist  who  employs 
such  an  applicant  later  learns  his  in- 
ability to  fill  the  place,  with  much  dis- 
satisfaction. To  stop  such  a  species  of 
fraud,  florists  would  be  wise  to  investi- 
gate promptly  all  references  given  as 
previous  employers,  especially  when  the 
applicant  cites  them  as  evidence  of  his 
ability  in  the  position  he  applies  for. 
More  care  in  this  particular  will  save 
employers  from  adding  to  the  high  cost 
of  doing  business  by  paying  undeserved 
wages  to  those  whose  ability  is  not  what 
is  claimed.  And  it  will  protect  the  repu- 
tation of  those  establishments  whose 
names  are  unrightfully  used  as  refer- 
ences. 

GOING  SOME. 

Going-^going — yes,  going  some — and 
gone.  That's  the  way  it  is  with  stock 
which  is  advertised  in  the  Classified 
section  of  The  Review.  And  that  means 
that  the  business  is  "going  some,"  too, 
truly  a  "going  concern."  You  can 
see  the  whole  picture  right  in  this  let- 
ter: 

Please  discontinue  my  ad  for  chrj-santhemums. 
The  first  week  the  ad  sold  more  than  40,000 — 
that  is  going  some — nnd  now  I  nm  all  sold  out. — 
W.  F.  Dunteman,  Bensenville,  111.,  June  12, 
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. 


BBIEF  ANSWEBS. 


H.  E.  K.,  La. — Any  annual,  provided 
you  have  glass;  otherwise  there  would 
be  nothing  doing,  we  are  afraid. 

W.  A.  H.,  Ga. — For  the  second  time, 
nearly  every.  It  is  customary  to  send 
a  stamped,  self-addressed  envelope 
when  you  want  a  reply  by  letter. 

J.  S.  M.,  Pa. — Use  one  of  the  standard 
nicotine  extracts  according  to  directions 
on  the  can. 

H.  F.  F.  T.,  Utah.— We  have  record 
of  no  other  florist  of  the  name  of 
Thorup.

The  Florists^  Review 


25 


NEW  YORK. 


The  Market. 

Last  week  business  was  quite  active. 
With  peonies  practically  out  of  the 
way  and  a  good  demand  for  flowers  for 
college  and  school  functions,  arrivals 
cleaned  up  well,  and  at  times  there  were 
shortages  of  some  staples.  New  York 
has  been  favored  with  exceptionally 
cool  weather,  which  in  many  ways  has 
been  helpful.  Now,  however,  summer 
has  arrived  and  the  temperature  is  run- 
ning along  in  the  eighties,  with  a  pros- 
pect of  a  continuance  at  that  level. 

Eambler  roses,  always  in  demand  for 
weddings,  are  just  beginning  to  come  in, 
-  about  three  weeks  late.  Dorothy  Per- 
kins, of  which  quantities  are  usually 
available  at  the  same  season,  is  only 
now  showing  color  in  this  district. 
These  items  show  how  far  the  season  is 
behind.  Northern-grown  peonies  in 
small  quantity  havei^helped  out  in  wed- 
ding decorations,  and  a  wealth  of 
herbaceous  material  has  been  moved 
for  .similar  requirements. 

American  Beauty  roses  have  been  in 
good  demand,  with  the  supply  about 
equal,  although  the  quality  has  been, 
nothing  to  boast  of.  Special  grades 
have  been  bringing  as  much  as  $40  per 
hundred  for  the  best,  with  inferior  ones 
down  to  $20,  and  short-stemmed  grades 
within  a  range  of  $2  to  $15.  The 
supply  of  hybrid  teas  has  been  a  little 
short;  consequently,  clearances  have 
been  easy  at  prices  somewhat  in  excess 
of  the  quotations  of  the  previous  week. 
White  varieties  have  been  quite 
scarce,  and  short  grades  have  moved  at 
a  $4  minimum. 

The  supply  of  carnations  is  greatly 
decreased,  and  arrivals  in  general  are 
of  poor  quality.  One  grower,  however, 
is  sending  in  some  Mrs.  C.  W.  Ward  and 
Benora  easily  of  the  finest  quality  seen 
in  recent  years  at  this  season  and  com- 
paring favorably  with  the  quality  of 
early  March.  Stock  such  as  this  brings 
easily  $4  and  $5,  but  the  remainder 
cleans  up  slowly  at  from  $1  to  $2. 

There  is  a  fair  supply  of  cattleyas 
and  only  a  moderate  demand  for  them. 
The  best  Cattleya  gigas  bring  as  much 
as  $1.50  per  flower,  with  inferior 
blooms  moving  at  prices  down  to  35 
cents.  White  lilies  are  available  in 
quantity  to  meet  all  demands,  moving  at 
$5  to  $8  per  hundred.  The  scarcity  of 
lily  of  the  valley  is  ended,  arrivals 
having  more  than  doubled  and  prices 
having  receded  to  a  range  of  $4  to  $12, 
with  the  demand  not  exceedingly 
active. 

There  continues  to  be  a  liberal  sup- 
ply of  herbaceous  flowers,  which  seem 
to  move  fairly  well.  Gladioli  from  out- 
door plantings  have  not  yet  put  in  an 
appearance  and,  according  to  one  or 
two  of  the  local  growers,  it  is  possible 
that  cutting  will  not  commence  much 
before  July  20,  early  plantings  having 
been  kept  back  by  the  cold  season. 
There  are  quantities  of  delphiniums, 
gaillardias,  careopsis,  calendulas,  corn- 
flowers, candytuft,  gypsophila,  cen- 
taureas  and  daisies,  and  small  lots  of 
bouvardia,  stocks  and  myosotis. 

Various  Notes. 

Steamer  business  is  improving  every 
week.  At  the  sailing  of  several  liners 
last  week  the  package  depots  on  the 
piers  presented  an  old-time  appearance. 

C.  H.  Totty  and  Mrs.  Totty,  Madi- 
son, N.  J,,  sailed  on  the  steamer  France 


Thursday,  Jiine  24,  for  Havre,  and  will 
return  about  the  middle  of  August. 

Joseph  8.  Fenricli  is  commuting  now 
from  Asbury  Park,  whore  he  has  loc&ted 
his  family  for  the  summer. 

Peter  Theophine,  of  the  Boulevard 
Floral  Co.,  Eighty-Eighth  street  and 
Broadway,  was  married  Thursday  eve- 
ning, June  24,  at  the  Hotel  Pennsyl- 
vania, to  Miss  Nina  Stavrianon.  James 
Papadem  was  best  inan,  assisted  by  C. 
Sakalos.  There  were  eighty-four  guests 
present,  among  them  Mr.  and  Mrs.  F. 
H.  Traendly,  Geo.  D.  Nicholas  and  Nick 
Laeles. 

N.  Denis,  of  the  Subway  Arcade 
Florist  Store,  on  St.  Nicholas  avenue, 
is  receiving  congratulations  on  the  ar- 
rival at  his  home,  June  23,  of  a 
daughter. 

A  recent  visitor  was  Jelle  Roos,  the 
gladiolus  grower,  of  Concord,  Mass. 

The  many  friends  of  Charles  Willis 
Ward,  formerly  of  Cottage  Gardens, 
Queens,  N.  Y.,  received  with  regret 
news  of  his  death,  on  the  Pacific  coast, 
Wednesday,  June  23. 

Charles  A.  Dards  has  returned  from 
a  tour  of  several  months  in  South 
America.  J.  H.  P. 


The  East  Coast  Hothouse  Operators, 
Inc.,  whose  plans  for  an  extensive  range 
at  Millington,  N.  J.,  were  outlined  in 
these  columns  some  time  ago,  have  ap- 
plied for  an  increase  in  capital  stock 
from   $500,000   to  $2,000,000. 


PEOVIDENCE,  E.  I. 


The  Market. 

Business  kept  up  remarkably  well  in 
June,  some  of  the  stores  reporting  that 
their  sales  for  the  first  half  of  the 
month  were  equal  to  the  sales  for  the 
entire  month  of  June  last  year.  The 
planting  season,  numerous  weddings 
and  an  increasing  counter  trade,  with 
heavy  demands  for  funerals,  have  made 
this  a  particularly  busy  month. 

The  quality  of  stock  received  is  not 
up  to  standard.  Roses  are  showing  the 
effect  of  the  weather,  while  carnations 
are  rapidly  going  off,  as  many  of  the 
growers  are  clearing  their  benches  for 
the  season,  and  sweet  peas  have  practi- 
cally all  gone. 

Prices  last  week  were  quoted  as  fol- 
lows: Roses,  $4  to  $16  per  hundred; 
carnations,  $3  to  $4;  sweet  peas,  $1  and 
$1.50;  peonies,  $4  to  $6;  lilies,  $1  and 
$2  per  dozen;  gladioli,  $6  to  $10;  snap- 
dragons, $3  to  $5;  stocks,  $2  to  $4; 
valley,  $8  to  $12,  and  marguerites, 
$1.50  and  $2. 

Various  Notes. 

The  building  occupied  by  the  Eastern 
Wreath  Co.,  on  Valley  street,  was  struck 
by  lightning  during  "the  storm  Tuesday 
afternoon,  June  22.  The  young  women 
employed  in  the  factory  received  slight 
shocks,  but  the  only  damage  done  was 
the  delaying  of  the  machinery  for  sev- 
eral hours. 

Eugene  McCarron,  of  Hope  street, 
had  a  big  run  of  business  for  small  wed- 
dings last  week. 

Last  week  was  an  unusually  busy  one 
for  Johnston  Bros.,  because  of  wedding 
work. 

Thomas  A.  Galligan  is  about  to  join 
the  ranks  of  the  benedicts,  his  bride- 
to-be  being  Miss  Pearl  M.  Blackmar. 

Charles  W.  Grant,  for  many  years 
superintendent     of     the     Mount     Hope 


cemetery,  North  Attleboro,  died  last 
week  at  his  home  in  that  town,  after 
an  illness  of  several  months.  He  is  sur- 
vived by  his  wife  and  two  daughters. 
R.  A.  Foulds,  of  Fall  River,  who  re- 
cently suffered  an  attack  of  paralysis, 
is  reported  as  improving. 

M.  B.  Saunders,  on  Public  street,  is 
doing  considerable  repairing  about  his 
range  of  houses  this  season. 

Wallace  Steere,  of  the  What  Cheer 
Wire  Works,  and  his  family  have  taken 
a  cottage  at  Narragansett  Terrace  for 
the  summer. 

Macnair  has  repainted  the  interior 
of  his  recently  enlarged  store,  corner 
of  Chestnut  and  Broad   streets. 

James  B.  Canning  and  family,  of

CHICAGO. 


The  Market. 


The  market  is  much  more  heavily 
supplied  than  was  the  case  a  week  ago. 
The  increase  is  principally  in  roses, 
which  have  been  forced  out  again  by 
the  return  of  extremely  warm  weather. 
With  the  rapid-growing  varieties  of 
the  present  day  it  takes  only  a  few 
weeks  from  crop  to  crop,  and  under  the 
influence  of  extremely  hot  weather  only 
a  few  days  are  required  to  force  out  the 
buds  on  the  plants.  After  a  week  of 
the  weather  that  gives  Chicago  its  repu- 
tation as  a  .summer  resort,  only  three  or 
four  days  of  southwestern  climatic  con- 
ditions were  required  to  fill  the  market 
again  with  small  or  open  roses.  There 
is  a  lot  of  stock  in  the  market  that  is 
only  fit  for  department  store,  or  chain 
.store,  or  peddlers'  uses.  That  it  should 
find  this  outlet  cannot  possibly  do  any 
retailer  harm;  anyone  who  buys  that 
class  of  flowers  is  almost  sure  to  go  to 
a  real  florist  next  time. 

Aside  from  roses,  which  are  plenti- 
ful, there  is  not  much  else  in  the  market 
except  odds  and  ends.  Carnations  are 
disappearing  rapidly.  There  are  large 
quantities  of  peonies  in  cold  storage, 
probably  more  than  ever  before  on  the 
last  day  of  June,  but  they  have  been 
selling  extremely  well  and  are  regarded 
as  first-class  property.  Prices  have  risen, 
a  most  unusual  circumstance  with 
peonies  in  the  last  days  of  June.  Some 
of  the  dealers  are  tkking  advantage  of 
the  good  market  lo  clean  up,  while 
others  are  holding  j  for  a  cent  or  two 
above  the  market  price  to  stretch  their 
supply  through  July  and  into  August. 

Easter  lilies  are  coming  from  a  large 
number  of  new  sources.  Nearly  every 
wholesale  house  has  them  in  quantity.

a  condition  which  has  not  existed  for 
years.  The  price  is  lower  than  for  a 
long  time.  Thus  far  gladioli  have  been 
from  indoors,  but  the  large  growers  in 
the  open  say  they  will  cut  within  the 
next  few  days  and  prices  are  falling 
in  anticipation  of  the  midsummer  sup- 
ply. Valley  is  decidedly  scarce.  Some 
of  the  wholesalers  have  been  unable  to 
fill  orders  taken  days  in  advance,  the 
demand  proving  to  be  much  heavier 
than  the  supply.  Cattleyas,  too,  are 
short  of  the  demand  and  as  much  as  $3 
apiece  is  obtained  for  fine  gigas.

beginning  of  the  month  there  was  an 
unwieldy  surplus  and  in  the  latter  part

as  they  did  last  June,  while  during  the 
part  of  the  month  that  stock  was  scarce 
prices  averaged  much  better  than  last 
year.  Roses  did  especially  well;  average 
rose  prices  were  at  least  double  those 
of  June,  1919,  and  during  the  third  week 
of  the  month  this  year  some  growers 
received  three  or  four  times  as  much 
for  their  stock  as  they  did  in  the  same 
week  last  year. 

When  the  wholesalers  and  growers 
do  well  it  is  a  certainty  that  the  re- 
tailers are  having  brisk  business. 

First  Car  from  Palm  Factory. 

A  matter  of  more  than  usual  interest 
engaged  attention  at  Morton  Grove 
June  28.  It  was  the  opening  up  of  the 
first  car  of  palms  shipped  to  Chicago 
from  Bassett  &  Washburn's  kentia  fac- 
tory at  Sierra  Madre,  Cal.  The  car 
contained  2,400  plants  and  came  through 
by  express  at  a  cost  of  a  little  more 
than  $1,000.  Packing  charges  were 
only  5  cents  per  plant.  The  palms  had 
been  knocked  out  of  the  pots  and  each 
ball  of  soil  had  been  sewed  in  burlap. 
Wet  sawdust  a  foot  deep  had  been  put 
on  the  floor  of  the  car  and  the  plants 
stood  on  it  so  close  together  that  they 
could  not  shift.  After  five  days  on  the 
road  they  opened  up  in  perfect  condi- 
tion. C.  L.  Washburn  was  there  to  see 
the  car  opened  and  had  as  his  guest 
Roy  P.  Wilcox,  of  Montebello,  Cal.,  who 
also  is  in  the  palm  business  but  who  is 
not  yet  ready  to  ship  finished  kentias 
in  carload  lots. 

Greenhouse  Builders  Luncheon. 

In  the  management  of  a  large  busi- 
ness one  of  the  greatest  difficulties  is  to 
obtain  proper  cooperation  between  the 
different  departments.  This  President 
P.  L.  McKoe,  of  the  American  Green- 
house Mfg.  Co.,  secure?  by  means  of 
monthly  meetings  of  department  heads 
and  other  principal  employees;  every- 
body gets  a  thorough  knowledge  of 
everything  that  is  going  on,  so  nobody 
works  in  the  dark.  The  meetings  con- 
clude with  a  luncheon,  that  of  June  26 
being  served  in  a  private  dining  room 
at  the  Hotel  Randolph.  There  were 
twenty  present,  including  Mr.  Brown, 
of  the  New  York  office,  Mr.  Dolan,  of 
the  Kansas  City  office,  and  Mr.  Andrews, 
superintendent    of    the    Pana    factory.

With  the  coffee  and  cigars  there  were 
a  number  of  talks.  Mr.  Lyndahl,  of  the 
Universal  Portland  Cement  Co.,  pre- 
sented facts  tending  to  show  that  there 
will  be  general  business  activity  for 
years  to  come.  H.  B.  Howard  cited 
figures  as  to  the  glass  area  in  the  United 
States  and  the  value  of  products,  com- 
paring them  with  the  population  to 
show  the  opportunity  for  long  continued 
expansion  of  the  florists'  business. 
Adolph  Nielsen,  the  well  known  Pana 
grower,  talked  on  the  merits  of  various 


types  of  greenhouses  for  different  pur- 
poses and  answered  a  volley  of  ques- 
tions from  his  great  store  of  experience. 
It  was  not  known  until  after  the  pre- 
arranged schedule  for  the  meeting  had 
been  completed  that  the  mother  of 
President  McKee  had  died  in  the  morn- 
ing of  June  26. 

Various  Notes. 

C.    J.    Michelsen    returned    June    25 
^rom  a  brief  vacation  trip  on  which  he 


spent  a  week  end,  from  Friday  evening 


until  Tuesday  morning,  with  E.  C.  Am- 
ling  and  family  at  Sawtelle,  Calif. 
With  Harold  Amling  as  driver,  the 
Amling  Packard  was  on  the  go  about 
as  long  as  there  was  light  and  it  is  safe 
to  say  no  visitor  ever  saw  more  in  so 
short  a  time.  Most  of  the  florists' 
establishments  in  the  vicinity  of  Los 
Angeles  were  inspected  and  Mr.  Michel- 
sen  became  greatly  impressed  by  the 
present  scope  and  possibilities  for 
future  expansion  of  the  trade's  inter- 
ests there.    He  was  particularly  pleased

with  the  establishment  of  Howard  & 
Smith,  which  he  characterized  as  com- 
plete in  every  detail,  and  with  Bassett 
&  Washburn's  palm  production  pros- 
pects. He  said  he  never  had  seen  finer 
kentias  and  that  Ned  Washburn  looked 
as  strong  and  healthy  as  the  stock. 
While  Mr.  Michelsen  was  there  the 
second  carload  to  leave  the  place 
started  east  by  fast  freight.  It  was 
on  an  order  from  Poehlmann  Bros.  Co. 
Another  car  had  been  sent  a  few  days 
before,  by  express,  to  Henry  A.  Dreer, 
Biverton,  N.  J.  Mr.  Michelsen  says 
taking  two  carloads  of  plants  out  of 
the  slat  houses  left  no  hole  a  visitor 
would  notice.  Mr.  Michelsen  says  Mr. 
Amling  has  made  good  progress  in  de- 
veloping the  33-acre  tract  he  recently 
bought  at  Sawtelle. 

First  in  the  market  with  the  new  pink 
rose,  Frank  W.  Dunlop,  were  Amling 
Bros.,  of  Des  Plaines.  They  began  cut- 
ting about  June  24. 

Paul  Klingsporn  spent  a  day  at  St. 
Paul  last  week  and  C.  L.  Sherer  was 
in  Cleveland.  Peter  Baumann  and  Her- 
man Franks,  of  the  Flower  Growers' 
staff,  have  opened  the  vacation  season. 

The  articles  of  incorporation  of  the 
Weiss-Spandikow  Co.,  Maywood,  have 
been  amended,  changing  the  name  to 
Premier  Rose  Gardens,  Inc.  Paul  Weiss 
continues  at  the  head  of  the  institution. 
The  two  big  Lord  &  Burnham  houses, 
doubling  the  capacity  of  the  place,  are 
completed  and  planted. 

George  C.  Weiland,  Fred  Stielow, 
Charles  McCauley  and  Paul  R.  Kling- 
sporn, with  their  families  in  their  cars, 
drove  to  Crystal  Lake  June  27,  for  a 
basket  picnic  and  for  the  inspection  of 
the  old  and  new  greenhouses  of  Frank 
Schramm,  whence  are  coming  Mrs.

Europe  with  a  thoroughness  not  often 
equaled  by  horticultural  trades'  repre- 
sentatives. His  tour  included  France, 
Belgium,  Germany,  Holland  and  Eng- 
land and  in  each  country  he  visited  all

Wendland  &_Keimel  Co.  Since  replant- 
ing, the  hoiiees  have  been  repainted  in- 
side and  out.  The  job  has  been  done 
in  a  thorough  fashion  and  an  inspection 
of  the  place  will  result  in  many  a 
grower  deciding  that  so  marked  an  im- 
provement is  worth  making  in  his  own 
establishment. 

At  the  iris  and  peony  show  of  the 
North  Shore  Horticultural  Society  at 
Lake  Forest  June  19  and  20  Peterson 
Nursery  showed  a  large  collection  of 
^is  and  peonies.  C.  Fabri,  of  Norwood 
Park,  displayed  a  fine  collection  of 
peonies.  An  interesting  display  of 
sweet  peas  was  made  by  Charles  Elliott, 
of  Park  Ridge. 

Visitors. 

Among  last  week's  visitors  were  O. 


F.  McKee  and  T.  S.  Porter,  the  gentle- 
men who  now  own  the  John  A.  Evans 
Co.,  the  well  known  ventilating  appa- 
ratus concern  at  Richmond,  Ind.  Mr. 
Porter  was  associated  with  Mr.  Evans 
for  a  number  of  years,  but  Mr.  McKee 
was  new  to  the  business  when  he  made 
the  investment.  They  were  here  simply 
to  enlarge  their  acquaintance  by  meet- 
ing a  few  of  those  with  whom  they  do 
business. 

L.  R.  Bohannon,  the  former  Chicago 
retailer  and  present  head  of  the  Kan- 
sas City  Wholesale  Cut  Flower  Co.,  was 
here  from  Kansas  City  this  week  on  a 
brief  business  trip. 

Walter  Bertermann,  of  Indianapolis, 
spent  June  28  in  this  market,  his  trip 
combining  business  and  pleasure. 

Mr.     Kemble,    of    Mason    City,    la.. 


spent  a  few  days  in  Chicago  while  on 
his  way  by  automobile  to  Charlevoix, 
Mich.  He  was  accompanied  by  his  wife 
and  family. 

Roy  Wilcox,  of  Montebello,  Cal.,  spent 
June  28  in  Chicago  and  Morton  Grove, 
leaving  the  same  night  for  Council 
Bluffs. 

J.  S.  Wilson,  of  Des  Moines,  is  in 
town  for  a  rest.  He  has  had  a  busy 
season,  the  best  in  his  experience,  and 
has  laid  aside  his  cares  for  a  few  days.

The  Market. 

June  weddings  were  the  feature  of 
the  business  last  week  and  there  was  a 
big  demand  for  first-class  stock.    Roses

were  in  excellent  condition.  White 
Killarney,  Columbia,  Ophelia  and 
American  Beauty  were  mostly  used. 
Carnations  are  plentiful,  although  the 
stock  is  hardly  up  to  standard.  There 
are  plenty  of  good  peonies  arriving  and 
they  sell  well.  Good  sweet  peas  are 
scarce,  most  of  them  having  short  stems 
and  small  flowers.  Snapdragons,  daisies 
and  forget-me-nots  complete  the  list  of 
sundry  flowers. 

Various  Notes. 

J.  J.  Le  Borious  had  charge  of  the 
Keyes  wedding,  which  was  quite  elab- 
orate. The  bride  carried  a  shower  bou- 
quet of  valley  and  cattleyas.  The  ma- 
tron of  honor  and  the  maid  of  honor 
carried  shower  bouquets  of  Sunburst 
roses.  Four  bridesmaids  carried  bou- 
quets composed  of  yellow  and  white 
daisies.  The  church  was  decorated  with 
palms  and  ferns. 

The  Duluth  Floral  Co.  had  the  bou- 
quets for  the  Stevenson  wedding.  This 
was  the  largest  wedding  of  the  season 
and  a  large  amount  of  stock  was  used. 
The  bride  carried  a  large  shower  bou- 
quet composed  of  valley  and  maidenhair 
fern.  The  bride's  mother  carried  a 
shower  bouquet  of  cattleyas,  which  was 
quite  elaborate.  The  maid  of  honor 
carried  an  arm  effect  of  American 
Beauty  roses.  Three  bridesmaids  car- 
ried bouquets  of  Columbia  roses  and 
pale  blue  larkspurs.  The  church  was 
decorated  with  evergreens,  cibotiums 
and  Easter  lilies,  with  a  candle  effect. 

Visitors  in  Duluth  last  week  were 
F.  A.  Longren,  of  the  Burlington  Willow 
Ware  Shops,  Burlington,  la.,  and  Max 
Schultz,  of  the  Ove  Gnatt  Co.,  Laporte,

The  Market. 

Everybody  thinks  that  June  has  been 
a  most  satisfactory  month  in  the 
flower  market.  This  was  not  generally 
expected.  When  the  peonies  missed 
Memorial  day  most  people  thought  they 
would  depress  the  market  throughout 
June.  This  proved  true  for  a  short 
time,  but  business  was  so  good  that  the 
market  soon  rallied.  As  the  supply  de- 
creased the  market  grew  stronger,  until 
the  month  is  closing  with  a  strong  mar- 
ket, a  most  unusual  occurrence. 

June  has  been  a  great  month  for 
weddings,  the  greatest  that  this  cut 
flower  market  has  ever  known.  Great 
quantities  of  fine  flowers  have  been 
used  for  these  happy  occasions.  Then 
there  have  been  the  commencements 
and  an  unusual  amount  of  entertain- 
ing. The  prosperous  condition  of  the 
country  is  reflected  in  the  quantities  of 
flowers  used. 

There  are  marked  changes  in  the 
character  of  the  supply.  The  great 
wave  of  Easter  lilies  has  passed  and 
the  market  is  slowly  recovering  from 
the  deluge,  with  prospects  of  more  satis- 
factory prices.  One  grower  alone  sent 
in  11,000  lilies  the  second  week  in  June, 
quite  unexpectedly.  There  were  other 
heavy  shipments  from  growers  who  do 
not  ship  lilies  regularly  to  this  market. 
These  special  shipments  have  ceased 
now.  The  market  is  being  supplied  by 
the  regular  shippers  in  more  moderate 
quantities.  Lilium  candidum  has  ar- 
rived; so  have  a  few  asters.  Peonio'! 
from  cold  storage  are  over.  Most  of 
the      wholesalers      considfr      them      as 


The  Supply  of  Indoor 

grown  flowers  is  getting  less,  which  is  naturally  to  be 
expected  at  this  season  of  the  year. 

Until  we  have  more  outdoor  flowers,  we  are  not 
likely  to  have  a  big  supply.  If  you  need  flowers  let  us

"Well,  you  see  I  went  west  on  busi- 
ness. When  I  got  back  it  was  awfully 
hot.  I  scribbled  a  few  lines  on  my  card 
and  sent  it  with  some  flowers  from  a 
florist's.  I  heard  that  night  that  her 
father  died  while  I  was  away  and  that 
the  funeral  occurred  that  day.  I 
thought  that  the  flowers  were  timely 
for  the  funeral,  showing  I  thought  of 
her,  but  I  forgot  the  card.  It  read, 
'Hopimg  these  will  help  you  through  the 
heat.'     She  broke  our  engagement." 

Various  Notes. 

Edward  Eeid  and  his  friend,  John  Li. 
Batcliffe,  of  Eiehmond,  Va.,  will  sail 
for  Europe  July  15.  Mr.  Reid's  greet- 
ing to  the  Statue  of  Liberty,  on  his 
return  from  England  at  the  breaking 
out  of  the  war,  is  historic. 

George  Heinl,  of  Terre  Haute,  Ind.; 
Julius  Baer,  of  Cincinnati,  O.;  Otto 
Lang,  of  Dallas,  Tex.,  and  E.  Hibberd, 
of  Durham,  N.  C.,  have  been  with  us. 

William  Berger's  Sons  executed  one 
of  the  handsomest  wedding  orders  of 
the  season  June  26.  It  was  an  outdoor 
wedding,  with  much  larkspur  and  some 
original  touches  in  Edward  Berger's 
best  style. 

The  Florists'  Club's  publicity  cam- 
paign has  closed  for  the  season  with  a 
balance  on  hand  that  will  meet  all  ex- 
penses. The  committee  feels  that  a 
good  beginning  has  been  made.  The 
intention  is  to  resume  work  this  fall. 

George  Aeugle  has  returned  from  the 
seashore  feeling  like   himself  again. 

Robert  Craig  came  up  to  the  city 
from  Ocean  Grove,  N.  J.,  June  26. 

The  Florex  Gardens  are  pushing  on 
with  their  rebuilding.  Freight  em- 
bargoes have  delayed  this  work. 

Much  interest  is  felt  in  the  future  of 
the  large  greenhouse  of  J.  Stephenson's 
Son,  at  Oak  Lane,  since  the  death  of 
the  owner,  Marcus  Stephenson.  It  is 
stated  on  reliable  authority  that  the 
greenhouse  will  be  run  under  the  man- 
agement of  Harold  Eoberts  until  the 
property  can  be  sold  for  building  lots. 
The  ground  on  which  the  house  stands 
is  so  valuable  that  florists  are  barred 
from  buying.

The  Market. 

Until  June  26  business  in  cut  flower 
circles  was  extremely  good,  nearly  all 
lines  being  well  cleaned  up  and  more 
particularly  roses,  peonies,  carnations 
and  sweet  peas.  With  the  passing  of 
school  graduations,  college  commence- 
ments and  weddings,  prices  took  a  de- 
cided drop  June  26  and  28.  Real  sum- 
mer is  at  last  our  lot  and  the  warmer 
weather  is  having  a  visible  effect  on 
both  the  quantity  and  quality  of  sup- 
plies. 

White  roses  have  been  and  are  de- 
cidedly scarce,  but  colored  varieties  are 
in  ample  supply  at  prices  mostly  from 
$1  to  $10,  few  going  above  those  prices. 
Carnations,  which  held  up  to  $4  for 
some  days,  have  dropped  to  $1  and  $2,

and  the  quality  is  getting  quite  low. 
Arrivals  are  smaller,  as  the  growers 
are  now,  in  many  cases,  pulling  out

Florists'   Outing. 

Perfect  summer  weather  favored  the 
second  annual  picnic  of  the  Boston 
Florists'  Association,  at  Suntaug  lake, 
in  Lynnfield,  June  26.  About  100  per- 
sons, including  many  ladies,  attended, 
making  the  trip  in  automobiles  from 
Massachusetts  avenue  opposite  Hoff- 
man's store.  The  usual  high-class 
dinner  was  served,  to  which  all  did 
ample  justice.  Short  speeches  -were 
made  by  Messrs.  Steckel  and  Penn  and 
some  dancing  was  indulged  in  between 
the  courses. 

More  athletic  events  were  held  than 
a  year  ago.  In  the  baseball  game  Sid-

Irwin,  of  New  York,  umpired  the  game 
efficiently.  There  was  a  strong  entry 
and  desperate  struggle  in  the  fat  men's 
race,  the  prize,  a  bottle  of  real  whisky, 
proving  a  potent  magnet.  Edward 
Welch  won,  with  W.  E.  Nicholson  close 
behind  him.  Mrs.  Sidney  Hoffman  and 
Mrs.  A.  Eogers  won  the  married  ladies' 
race.   Miss  Freda    Thommen   and   Miss 


Ethel  Leibson  coming  out  ahead  in  the 
single  ladies'  event. 

The  100-yard  race  for  men  drew  a 
good  field,  the  winners  being  Stanley 
Eogers  and  Albert  Meddy.  In  the 
ladies'  potato  contest,  Mrs.  Arthur  Carr 
came  in  just  ahead  of  Miss  Silverman. 
The  last-mentioned,  lady  and  her  part- 
ner won  the  prize  for  the  best  dancing

one.  The  beautiful  lake  made  the  pic-

was  quite  late  ere  the  gathering  sepa- 
rated, nothing  having  happened  to  mar 
its  pleasures. 

Flower  Exhibition. 

June  weather  has  proved  notoriously 
fickle  this  year  and  it  has  been  difficult 
to  arrange  proper  dates  for  the  various 
summer  shows  of  the  Massachusetts 
Horticultural  Society.  The  exhibition 
of  roses  and  strawberries  scheduled  for 
June  26  and  27  was  almost  a  minus 
quantity,  there  being  but  two  exhibitors 
of  roses  and  one  of  strawberries,  the 
date  being  eight  or  ten  days  too  early 
for  each.  There  was,  however,  a  won- 
derful display  of  peonies.  The  most 
notable,  from  T.  C.  Thurlow's  Sons 
Co.,  filled  half  the  main  exhibition  hall 
and  contained  over  200  named  varie- 
ties, charmingly  arranged,  and  received 
the  rare  distinction  of  a  gold  medal. 
About  every  standard,  new  and  annual 
variety  was  represented  in  this  fine  dis- 
play. There  was  a  good  contest  in  the 
classes  for  twelve  specimens  each  of 
named  varieties,  of  white,  pink,  salmon 
and  red  colors,  T.  C.  Thurlow's  Sons 
Co.,  Arthur  H.  Fewkes  and  Mrs.  J. 
McKissock  bein^  the  leading  prize- 
winners. Fine  miscellaneous  displays 
came  from  Messrs.  Fewkes,  Chase  and 
others. 

The  Blue  Hill  Nurseries  won  no  less 
than  three  silver  medals,  one  for  the 
finest  collection  of  hardy  perennials 
from  a  trade  exhibitor,  another  for 
Thuja  occidentalis,  Guynne's  variety,  a 
fine  novelty  which  won  the  S.  A.  F. 
silver  medal  here  in  1919,  and  a  third

Various  Notes. 

The  Boston  local  of  the  National 
Flower  Growers'  Association  held  a 
well  attended  meeting  at  the  American 
House  last  week,  William  C.  Stickel 
presiding,  and  voted  to  accept  the  con- 
stitution and  by-laws  as  drawn  up  by 
the  executive  committee.  The  same 
committee  was  appointed  to  attend  the 
convention  at  Cleveland  as  represent- 
ative of  the  Boston  branch.  The  meet- 
ing was  enthusiastic  and  harmonious. 

Elijah  S.  Gorney  is  mourning  the 
death  of  his  mother,  who  passed  away 
June  26.  Mr.  Gorney,  who  is  secretary 
of  the  Florists'  Association,  is  at  pres- 
ent absent  on  a  trip  to  California, 
where  W.  H.  Elliott,  the  vice-president, 
is  still  sojourning. 

Charles  Evans,  of  Watertown,  is 
handling  an  average  of  150  dozen 
peonies  of  fine  quality  daily,  grown  at 
his  Watertown  farm. 

The  executive  committee  of  the  Gar- 
deners' and  Florists'  Club  met  June  25 
and  drew  up  the  sports  program  and 
made  other  arrangements  for  the  an- 
nual picnic,  to  be  held  in  Cunningham 
park.  East  Milton,  July  22.  There  are 
some  twenty-four  sporting  events  and 
fine  weather  only  is  needed  to  secure 
a  record  attendance. 

The  annual  exhibition  of  sweet  peas 
given  jointly  by  the  Massachusetts 
Horticultural  Society  and  the  American 
Sweet  Pea  Society  will  be  held  in  Hor- 
ticultural hall  July  10  and  11.  The 
season  here  is  unusually  late,  but  out- 
door sweet  peas  should  be  in  good  con- 
dition on  the  dates  named. 

Account  of  the  death  of  Robert  Mal-

^lay  of  flowers  expected  at  this  season. 
Gladioli  are  just  beginning  to  come  into 
bloom.  Strange  to  say,  those  that  were 
left  in  the  ground  all  winter  are  not 
blooming  so  early  as  those  that  were 
planted  after  the  weather  had  become 
settled  this  spring.  The  same  thing 
seems  to  be  true  of  dahlias  this  season. 
Carnations  have  held  on  later  than 
usual  this  summer.  They  are  practically 
gone  now,  however.  Lilies  are  in  fair 
supply.  Sweet  peas  are  still  plentiful 
and  of  good  quality  and  roses  are  in 
good  supply  and  of  excellent  quality. 
Valley  is  appearing  again  in  a  small 
way.  A  good  many  perennials  are  being 
used  in  design  work  and  in  similar  ways, 
but  for  some  reason  this  type  of  flowers 
has^never  proved  popular  with  the  public 
for  other  uses. 

Various  Notes. 

June  17  Miss  Marian  Alice  Joy  was 
married  to  Richard  Farnsworth  Castner. 
The  ceremony  was  performed  at  the 
Joy  home,  adjoining  the  Joy  green- 
houses. The  rector  of  St.  Ann's  Epis- 
copal church  officiated.  The  wedding 
was  a  quiet  affair,  attended  only  by  a 
few  relatives  of  the  two  families  and  a 
few  close  friends.  The  decorations  con- 
sisted of  an  altar  of  ferns  and  palms, 
interspersed  with  stands  of  lilies  and 
Hanked  with  cathedral  candelabra. 
Quantities  of  lilies  and  Columbia  roses 
were  used  in  decorating  the  room,  as 
well  as  the  rest  of  the  house.  The 
bride 's  bouquet  was  a  shower  of  valley. 
After  the  ceremony  an  informal  recep- 
tion was  given.  That  evening  the  bride 
and  groom  left  for  Chicago  on  their 
wedding  tour,  after  which  they  will  go 
to  River  Falls,  N.  D.,  where  they  are  to 
reside.  Miss  Joy  is  a  daughter  of  the 
late  T.  C.  Joy  and  a  sister  of  T.  H. 
and  Harold  Joy,  the  present  active  heads 
of  the  Joy  Floral  Co. 

Since  moving  their  store  to  the  new 
location,  Haury  &  Sons  report  that  busi- 
ness has  increased  over  twenty-five  per 
cent.  They  are  rebuilding  their  benches 
and  giving  their  greenhouses  a  general 
overhauling  this  summer. 

Charles  Tritschler  is  still  doing  a 
good  business  selling  pot  and  bedding 
plants.  He  cleaned  up  his  general  stock, 
but  found  it  necessary  to  crowd  along 
all  the  late  propagated  stock  he  could 
get  into  shape  for  sales  that  just  will 
not  let  up.

The  Market. 

Until  this  week  there  has  been  plenty 
of  stock  of  all  kinds  on  the  market, 
but  this  week  found  stock  rather  scarce, 
especially  wedding  flowers,  such  as 
white  roses  and  lilies  of  the  valley, 
which  have  been  scarce.  The  supply 
was  not  nearly  enough  to  take  care  of 
the  big  demand.  Peonies  are  just 
about  over  and  there  are  few  in  storage 
this  year.  Gladioli  seem  to  be  coming 
in  slowly  this  season,  as  only  a  few 
have  made  their  appearance.  Lark- 
spur is  arriving,  good  in  quality  as  well 
as  quantity.  Bachelor's  buttons  are 
gradually  disappearing.  Coreopsis  and 
other  outdoor  flowers  are  making  their 
debut.  Water  lilies  are  coming  in  regu- 
larly at  present  and  have  been  cleaning 
up  fairly  well,  but  have  not  been  bring- 
ing the  price  they  should.

celebrated  firm  of  Felton  &  Sons,  which 
has  been  in  the  business  fifty  years  in 
London.  Mr.  Felton  has  a  nephew,  C.  E. 
Felton,  who  has  done  credit  to  the  name 
in  flower  selling  at  Buffalo,  where  he 
has  operated  two  stores  for  five  years. 
Felton 's  for  Flowers  is  incorporated  un- 
der the  laws  of  Ohio  with  $250,000  au- 
thorized capital  stock.  It  is  the  pur- 
pose to  engage  in  the  retail  end  of  the 
florists'  business  in  a  more  or  less  ex- 
tensive way  through  the  operation  of  a 
chain  of  stores.  The  general  office  is  at 
300  Erie  building  and  the  plans  have 
progressed  so  satisfactorily  that  a  third 
store  has  been  acquired  through  the  pur- 
chase of  Paul  C.  Hahn's  place  at  10515 
Superior  street,  carrying  with  it  a  mem- 


bership in  the  F.  T.  D.  The  two  other 
stores  are  at  8510  Hough  avenue  and 
12505  St.   Clair  avenue. 

The  United  Floral  &  Nurseries  Co., 
which  advertised  ambitious  plans  from 
offices  in  the  Hippodrome  building, 
may  now  be  found  at  7514  Lexington 
avenue.  "Jack"  Keck  is  still  at  the 
helm. 

Westman  &  Getz  will  welcome  the 
quiet  of  July,  trusting  that  it  will  bring 
a  breathing  spell  after  the  rush  of  June 
weddings.  Miss  Dorothy  Baley,  who 
has  been  associated  with  this  firm  for 
the  last  eight  years,  sailed  for  England 
with  her  mother  June  26.  They  will 
make  an  indefinite  stay,  visiting  friends 
and  relatives.     Mr.   Van  Fish,   a   well 


known  decorator,  has  been  a  welcome 
addition  to  the  force  during  the  month 
of  June. 

Among  last  week's  visitors  were  rep- 
resentatives of  two  Chicago  wholesale 
houses,  Eric  Johnson,  manager  of  the 
cut  flower  department  of  the  A.  L.  Ban- 
dall  Co.,  and  C.  L.  Sherer,  who  has 
charge  of  the  out-of-town  orders  for  the 
Chicago  Flower  Growers'  Association. 
The  house  of  Bandall  has  a  resident  rep- 
resentative here  in  the  person  of  J.  E. 
Quallich.

Improving  the  Industry. 

Though  much  business  alonp  various 
lines  was  taken  care  of  Wednesday  in 
both  tlie  nKirniut:  and  the  afternoon, 
each  session  had  a  single  subject  around 
wliich  the  warmest  discussion  centered 
In  the  morning  it  was  nomenclature  hi 
the  afternoon   it    was  jniblicitv  and   the 


j.(arden    c.'nii paij^n ;     tliis    was    taken     up 
rather    late     in    the    afternoon    ami    I'e 
(juircMl    further    coiisideral  ion    tin'    next 
iiiorniii<if. 

'J'he  iirst  subject  was  o|)eue(l  Wednes- 
day morninj;  by  Francis  Stokes,  oT  the 
Stidvcs  Seed  Farms  (Jo.,  Moorestown,  N. 
J.,  with  a  resolution  that  the  .associa- 
tion should  .'ipiioint  a  nonienclature 
committee  of  live  to  coiipei.-ite  with  tlie 
varietal  names  committee  of  the  Ve<;e- 
tal>l(>  (irowi'rs'  Associ.atiou  of  Ainerici. 
He  su^<.;ested  that  the  .association  micjlit 
recpiest  Secretary  V..  T.  Meredith  to 
allow  Dr.  W.  W.  Tracy,  of  the  United 
States  Department  of  Agriculture,  to 
take  charf^e  of  the  prejiaration  of  the 
standard  list  of  varieties,  since  Dr. 
Tracy  would  be  unbi.astMl  and  highly 
competent  and  would  have  the  facili- 
ties of  the  Arlington  trial  grounds. 
Watson  Woodruff  offered  the  name  of 
Lester  Tj.  IMorse  as  another  exjiert  on 
nomenclature  and  II.  G.  Hastings  called 
attention  to  the  fact  that  the  American 
Society  of  Agronomy  was  undertaking 
much  the  same  task.  C  E.  Kendel, 
Kirliy  P.  White  :ind  Frank  Polgiano  also 
shared    in    the    discussion.      The    resolu- 


tion, put  as  a  motion,  with  an  amend- 
ment appropriating  ^LTiO  for  the  use  of 
the   committee,  was  passed. 

The  American  Joint  Committee. 

Then  J.  llor.ace  McT'arlaiul,  chairman 
of  the  Anieric.Mii  .Joint.  Committee  on 
Hort  iciilt  iir.al  Xomenclat  ure.  re.ad  a 
stimulating;  .ami  often  humorous  paper 
on  * '  Horticultur.al  Nomenclature." 
After  fortifying  himself  with  defini- 
tions, he  showed,  with  abund.'int  illus- 
tr.atioii,  tlie  need  of  having  definite 
coniinon  names,  ;is  well  as  definite 
scientific,  names,  ''to  make  buying 
easier,"  and  described  the  plans  and 
the  jiresent  achievements  of  the  Aincri- 
c;in  joint  committee.  Copies  of  the  1920 
prospectus  of  tlu!  oflicial  catalogue  of 
plant  names  wcro  provided  for  inspec- 
tion by  the  members  of  the  association. 
Mr.  McFarland  said  that  the  oflicial 
catalogue  would  be  conijileted  by  Octo- 
ber or  November  of  this  year  and  would 
be  published  by  the  end  of  the  year, 
unless  subvarietal  names  were  added, 
in  M'hich  case  u  little  more  time  would 
be  required.  He  said  also  that  it  was

The  National  Garden  Bureau. 

The  rpiestion  of  publicity  and  the 
national  garden  bureau  was  introduced 
by  tlio  report  of  Leonard  II.  Vaughan, 
of  (Hiicafjo,  for  the  special  advertisin<^ 
coinmittiK!  on  home  gardens;  this  rcp<irt 
chiefly  told  what  had  been  accom- 
plished in  cooperation  with  the  bureau 
in  carrying  out  the  plans  outlined  in 
the  bureau's  prospectus.  He  said  that 
the  first  story  had  been  sent  out  to 
1,500  newsjiapcrs  all  over  the  country 
except  in  the  south,  where  the  right 
season  was  then  past.  When  an  order 
for  regular  service  was  received  from 
a  nevvspajier,  all  other  papers  in  that 
city  were  eliminated,  with  a  mailing 
list  of  4,10  as  a  result.  Through  2(VA 
papers  they  liad  readied  about  4,000,000 
readers,  fre<iiiently  securing  better  posi- 
tions for  the  garden  stories  than  money 
could  have  bought  for  advertising  niat- 
t«>r.  The  association  voted  to  continue 
the  garden  committee  for  another  year, 
as  a  new  committee  to  be  appointed  by 
the   incoming   jiresident. 

Cooperative  Publicity. 

Publicity  for  the  home  garden  move- 
nient  was  treated  from  another  angle 
by  J.  li.  Hamilton,  of  the  J.  K.  Hamil- 
ton Advertising  Agency,  Chicago,  who 
said  that  conferences  with  bankers  and 
manufacturers  in  various  parts  of  the 
country  showed  a  strong  desire  for  the 
spread  of  this  movement,  in  order  tliat 
more  food  might  be  raised  and  that 
more  peo])le  might  gain  that  sense  of 
stability  which  comes  with  an  activ(> 
interest  in  land.  He  suggested  a  plan 
to  raise  a  coiijierative  advertising  fund 
of  $500,000  by  levying  an  assessment  of 
one-tenth  of  1  cent  per  packet  on  seed 
merchants  an<l  one-half  of  one  per  cent 
of  sales  on  seed  growers.  What  arrange- 
ment was  to  be  made  for  the  particijia- 
tion  of  grass  seed  dealers  was  not  made 
clear,  although  tliat  point  was  raised  in 
the  discussion. 

When  this  subject  was  brought  up 
ngain  the  next  morning,  W.  P.  Therkild- 
sfin  commended  highly  the  work  of  the 
garden  pnl)licity  committee,  but  stated 
einiihatically  that  before  the  association 
undertook  any  cooperative  publicity 
camjiaign  it  should  be  certain  of  the 
necessary  funds  and  not  put  an  undue 
burden  on  \vhat(>\er  agen<"v  might  liave 
charge   of   the   work.      Axel    Setterberg.

of  the  Everette  E.  Peacock  Co.,  Chicago, 
suggested  raising  the  money  by  putting 
a  seal  on  each  packet  of  seed  sold,  after 
the  manner  of  the  federal  tax  on  toilet 
articles;  this  method,  he  thought,  would 
simplify  the  bookkeeping  problem,  the 
burden  of  which  was  spoken  of  more 
than  once.  The  discussion  was  closed 
when  the  association  passed  a  motion 
to  abandon  the  project  of  paid  pub- 
licity, at  least  for  the  time  being. 

Experiment  Station  Reports. 

Another  interesting  feature  of 
Wednesday  afternoon  was  the  reading 
by  L.  L.  Olds  of  the  report  of  the  com- 
mittee on  experiment  stations.  Inter- 
esting suggestions  contained  in  the  re- 
plies from  seventeen  states — more  had 
been  received  than  were  read — included 
the  adoption  by  the  American  Seed 
Trade  Association  of  a  gentlemen's 
agreement  to  show  on  the  label  where 
the  seeds  were  grown,  the  use  of  an 
order  of  crop  rotation  which  would  pre- 
vent plants  bearing  related  diseases 
from  following  in  direct  succession,  the 
regulation  of  interstate  seed  traffic  by 
a  federal  seed  law  and  the  registration 
of  seed  fields  coming  up  to  a  certain 
standard.  Maryland  reported  satisfac- 
tion with  its  uniform  seed  law,  in  effect 
since  October,  1918;  New  York's  uni- 
form seed  law  becomes  effective  July  1, 
1920,  and  Massachusetts,  with  New  Eng- 
land pride,  reported  that  it  had  no  seed 
law  because  there  was  no  demand  for 
it  from  anyone. 

A  further  feature  of  that  afternoon 
session  was  the  reading  by  George 
Edler,  of  the  bureau  of  markets  of  the 
United  States  Department  of  Agricul- 
ture, Washington,  D.  C,  of  the  paper 
on  "The  Fine  Turf  Grasses,  with  Spe- 
cial Reference  to  the  Seed  Supply,"  by

the  paper  said;  the  pure  seeds  true  to 
name  should  be  sold  and  the  mixing,  if 
any,  done  at  the  time  of  seeding.     Mr. 
Edler  said  that  there  had  been  no  seed 
surveys   since  July  1,   1919,   when   the 
authority  for  their  issuance  expired,  but 
that  various  reports  of  a  similar  nature 
had  been  issued  since  then.

In  Memoriam. 

The  closing  session  Thursday  included 
the  reading  of  the  report  of  the  obituary 
committee  on  the  following  members 
who  had  died  during  the  past  year  and 
to  whom  President  Dungan  had  referred 
in  his  address:  James  C.  Tait,  presi- 
dent of  Geo.  Tait  &  Sons,  Norfolk,  Va.; 
A.  J.  and  H.  A.  Simmers,  of  J.  A.  Sim- 
mers &  Sons,  Toronto,  Canada;  W. 
Frank  Jones,  of  Caldwell  &  Jones,  Hart- 
ford, Conn.;  Nathan  Dickinson,  of  the 
Albert  Dickinson  Co.,  Chicago;  Patrick 
O'Mara,  of  Peter  Henderson  &  Co., 
New  York  city;  Jacob  and  La  Fayette 
Funk,  of  the  Funk  Bros.  Seed  Co., 
Bloomington,  El.;  F.  W.  Bruggerhof,  of 
J.  M.  Thorburn  &  Co.,  Ne\y  York  city, 
and  Charles  W.  Crosman,  of  Crosman 
Bros.  Co.,  Eochester,  N.  T. 

Letters  were  read  from  W.  W.  Gil- 
bert, pathologist  of  the  United  States 
Department  of  Agriculture,  and  F.  A. 
Vickers,  secretary  of  the  National 
Pickle  Packers'  Association,  asking 
that  the  seedsmen  discontinue  listing  in 
their  catalogues  the  seed  of  the  wild 
cucumber,  used  as  an  ornamental  vine, 
because  of  its  tendency  to  spread  the 
disease  of  cucumber  mosaic.  Though 
individuals  expressed  themselves  as 
willing  to  comply  with  this  request,  the 
association  deferred  action  upon  it. 

Where  Do  We  Go  from  Here? 

Clifford  Corneli,  of  the  Schisler- 
€orneli  Seed  Co.,  St.  Louis,  Mo.,  read, 
adding  his  own  persuasive  comment, 
invitations  from  the  mayor  and  various 
commercial  organizations  of  St.  Louis 
to  the  association  to  hold  its  next  con- 
vention in  that  city.  Invitations  from 
New  York,  Chicago  and  Portland,  Ore., 
were  also  announced.  The  choice  will 
be  made  later  by  the  executive  com- 
mittee. The  auditing  committee,  con- 
sisting of  R.  F.  Lyon,  of  the  H.  G. 
Hastings  Co..  Atlanta,  Ga.,  Francis  C. 
Stokes  and  H.  L.  Holmes,  Jr.,  of  the 
Holmes-Letherman  Seed  Co.,  Canton,  0., 
placed  its  customary  O.  K.  on  the  treas- 
urer's report.  Because  of  lack  of  time, 
the  reading  of  the  crop  reports  was  dis- 
pensed with. 

For  Health  and  Wealth. 

In  the  final  moments  of  the  session, 
after  E.  C.  Dungan  had  handed  the 
gavel  to  the  new  president,  H.  G.  Hast- 
ings, Theodore  Cobb,  of  D.  M.  Ferry  & 
Co.,  Detroit,  showed  himself  as  facile 
with  presentation  speeches  as  with 
castanets.  First,  in  order  to  facilitate 
the  return  of  the  retiring  president,  E. 
C.  Dungan,  to  full  health  and  normal 
weight,  Mr.  Cobb  tendered  him,  on  be- 
half of  the  association,  a  pumpkin  pie.

The  Rofists^  Review 


m 


July  1,  1920 


passed  among  the  tables,  all  -were 
exceptional.  The  instrumental  music 
was  so  good  that  many  remained  to 
dance  to  it  after  the  tables  had  been 
cleared  away.  As  to  the  speaking — 
Kirby  B.  White  was  toastmaster  and 
thus  had  an  opportunity  to  set  free  some 
of  the  humor  which  could  not  always 
be  released  in  the  Red  room.  J.  H. 
Puelicher,  president  of  the  Marshall  & 
Hsley  bank,  Milwaukee,  gave  a  truly 
eloquent  talk,  not  only  on  trade  accept- 
ances, but  on  the  nation's  present 
financial  condition  and  the  seed  trade 'p 
opportunity  for  national  service.  Then 
the  Eev.  "William  T.  Dorward  spoke  on 
"The  Master  Key,"  with  a  constant 
stream  of  wit  and  humor,  Scotch  and 
otherwise,  which  enforced  the  moral 
aspects  of  his  talk  and  gave  morality 
an  after-dinner  aptness  of  which  one 
might  not  have  suspected  it. 


MOTT-LY  GLEANINGS. 


At  Milwaukee. 

The  gathering  of  the  American  Seed 
Trade  Association,  at  Milwaukee,  June 
22  to  24,  as  viewed  either  from  a  busi- 
ness or  a  social  angle,  was  a  big  success. 
Many  regrets  were  heard  from  those 
members  who  were  absent.  George 
Thomson,  of  Northrup,  King  &  Co., 
Minneapolis,  Minn.,  said,  "There  is 
much  that  is  'entre  nous'  and  unpub- 
lishable,  but  which  is  often  of  the 
greatest  value." 

The  social  features  were  conceded 
perfect,  according  to  Lawrence  E. 
Payn,  of  Simon  Louis  Freres,  France, 
who  compared  Milwaukee  to  his  gay 
Paree,  whither,  doubtless,  his  parental 
thoughts  were  diverted,  mindful  of  the 
little  ones  anxiously  awaiting  papa 's  re- 
turn. Which  reminds  us  that  Lyons  H. 
Williams,  of  Norfolk,  Va.,  whispered  the 
fact  of  the  arrival  of  a  son  and  heir  to 
aid  in  conducting  his  flourishing  busi- 
ness. Mr.  Williams  was  the  recipient 
of  many  congratulations. 

"Glad  to  be  present,"  observed  W.  T. 
Phillips,  of  Toledo,  O.  "Those  absent 
do  not  know  what  they  are  missing. 
True,  some  things  are  hidden  from  us, 
as,  for  example,  the  meeting  of  the 
wholesale  grass  seed  dealers,  held  be- 
hind closed  doors,  but  perhaps,  since 
grass  seed  contains  the  greatest  amount 
of  dust  and  foul  seed,  it  is  proper  to 
confine  the  cleaning  process  as  much  as 
is  possible." 

The  boxing  exhibition  was  compared 
to  the  buffeting  which  the  "powers  that 
be"  are  continually  handing  the  seeds- 
men. "It  is  often  too  one-sided,"  ob- 
served C.  H.  Anderson,  of  the  Piatt 
Seed  Co.,  New  Haven,  Conn.,  who  was 
the  sole  representative  of  the  retail 
trade  from  New  England  and  proud  of 
the  honor. 

John  Degnan,  one  of  the  best  known 
seedsmen  in  Chicago,  looked  in  at  the 
convention,  reminiscencing  with  James 
Currie  and  other  veterans  in  the  trade. 
He  was  en  route  to  the  Golden  Gate  and 
it  is  highly  probable  that  he  will  re- 
side there  with  the  host  of  luminaries 
who  have  preceded  him. 

E.  B.  Howe,  of  the  W.  W.  Barnard 
Co.,  Chicago,  called  attention  to  the 
model  combination  kitchen  and  flower 
garden  arranged  in  the  window  of  Cur- 
rie Bros.  Co.,  incidentally  adding  that 
he  was  passing  into  the  thirty-ninth 
period  of  the  garden  of  life.

rie  received  much  praise  from  the  vis- 
itors for  the  splendid  arrangement  in 
the  larger*  parks  and  also  in  the  many 
smaller  spa<}es.  Mr.  Currie  observed 
that  while  now  Pabst  exists  in  name 
only,  it  being  only  a  dark  shadow  of  its 
former  self,  floriculture  can  and  un- 
doubtedly will  continue  to  make  Mil- 
waukee famous.  W.  M. 

On  the  Bead. 

' '  Cleaning  up  a  bit, ' '  observed  W.  T. 
Phillips,  of  the  W.  T.  Phillips  Seed  Co., 
Toledo,  O.,  who  was  going  through  the 
cabinet  drawers  and  filling  a  basket 
with  matter  that  cost  money  to  produce, 
but  which  could  be  counted  as  so  much 
waste  or  spent  air.  "Most  of  this  stuff 
pours  in  during  the  busy  season,  when 
one  has  scarcely  time  to  run  over  the 
trade  papers,"  he  continued,  "and  loose 
literature  is  either  shot  into  the  waste 
basket  or  laid  aside,  often  too  late  to 
be  of  any  use  when  one,  as  now,  has 
some  leisure  time  to  look  it  over.  De- 
pend upon  it,  the  oaly  effective  way  to 
reach  the  business  man  today  is  through 
the  medium  of  his  trade  paper."  The 
seed  business,  taken  as  a  whole,  is  sat- 
isfactory, gradually  winding  up  after 
several  rushes  and  pauses. 

Harry  Holmes,  of  the  Holmes-Lether- 
man  Seed  Co.,  Canton,  O.,  is  positive 
that  by  the  variety  of  garden  seeds  sold 
patrons  are  yearly  becoming  better 
posted  and  that  models,  as  seen  in  some 
of  the  old  established  houses,  will  not 
be  necessary  to  teach  the  younger  gen- 
eration of  gardeners.  Following  the 
spring  rush,  Mr.  Holmes  took  an  active 
part  in  a  Y.  M,  C.  A.  drive,  with  grati- 
fying results. 

Manager  Eotherham,  of  Wood  &  Co., 
East  Cleveland,  0.,  believes  that  a  longer 
inventory  than  usual  will  be  required 
this  year  and  probably  more  stock  will 
be  left  on  hand,  but  the  average  will 
be  satisfactory.  W.  M.

New  Early-Flowering  or  Winter-Blooming] 

An  entirely  new  and  distinct  strain  of  Fansies.  The  main  advantage  of  these  new 
Fansies  over  all  hitherto  existing  Fansies  is  the  extreme  earllness  of  flowering.  Sown 
at  the  snme  time  a"  other  Fansien,  they  begin  flowering  the  early  part  of  March  or 
OR  Boon  as  the  nnnw  is  off  the  ground,  many  times  having  four  or  flve  large  flowers 
to  a  plant,  when  all  other  Fansies  are  only  showing  buds.  The  flowers  are  large,  well 
formed  and  fragrant.

prospects  are  good  for  vegetable  seed 
crops.  The  late  showers  have  made  it 
possible  to  get  good  stands  of  beans  and 
wo  are  looking  forward  to  a  normal 
yield  in  the  greater  portion  of  our  acre- 
age. Lettuce  and  radish  are  the  two 
crops  that  have  suffered  most  from  lack 
of  rain  in  January  and  a  considerable 
acreage  will  be  light  if  not  an  entire 
failure. 

"The  fluctuating  market,  together 
with  unfavorable  weather  conditions, 
caused  a  great  reduction  in  the  acre- 
age of  vegetable  seeds  and  this,  coupled 
with  the  poor  prospects  for  harvest, 
"lakes  us  anticipate  a  greater  shortage 


on  vegetable  seeds  than  in  past  years. 
"As  a  consequence  of  scanty  rain- 
fall, sweet  peas  are  three  months  be- 
hind and  cannot  possibly  make  a  nor- 
mal crop.  We  are  looking  for  a  small 
yield,  especially  in  Spencer  types,  named 
varieties,  which  seem  to  be  suffering 
the  most.  The  early-flowering  types  of 
Spencers  look  better,  but  the  demand  is 
good  and  the  crop  will  not  yield  more 
than  enough  to  fill  orders.  Prospects  on 
mixtures  of  all  kinds  of  sweet  peas  are 
better  than  on  the  named  varieties  and, 
judging  from  conditions  today,  we  ex- 
pect to  be  able  to  fill  all  orders  and 
have  a  small  surplus.  Grandiflora  named 


varieties  are  also  suffering  and  the  crop 
will  not  be  large." 


SEED    CROPS    AT   NASHVILLE. 

The  situation  in  Nashville,  Tenn.,  this 
season  is  interesting  to  many  of  the 
trade.  The  Seven  Top  turnip  seed  crop 
is  practically  nil.  Because  of  the  poor 
yield  and  the  low  price  last  year,  little 
acreage  was  sown.  Then  the  winter 
proved  hard  on  the  crop.  In  the  spring 
the  demand  for  turnip  tops  for  salad 
was  so  great,  and  the  price  so  high,  be- 
ing as  much  as  25  cents  per  pound  by 
the  wagonload,  that  only  the  few  who 


64 


The  Florists^  Review 


Jdlt  1,  1920 


had  contracted  their  seed  beforehand 
allowed  any  to  stand.  Dealers  have 
paid  as  high  as  50  cents  per  pound  for 
seed  within  the  last  week. 

A  lesser  acreage  of  Siberian  kale  is 
grown  here,  yet  the  crop  grown  in  this 
vicinity  is  an  important  feature  of  the 
market.  So  far  as  known,  only  one  acre 
was  allowed  to  seed  this  year.  This 
made  only  300  pounds  of  seed. 

Everything  points  toward  a  smaller 
acreage  of  both  cow  peas  and  soy  beans 
this  year  than  for  a  long  time  previous. 
Of  course  it  is  still  too  early  to  report 
what  the  crop  will  be,  but  it  cannot  be 
heavy,  because  of  the  reduced  acreage. 
Crimson  clover  is  ripe  and  the  crop  is 
about  an  average  one  or  perhaps  better.

CINCINNATI,  O. 


The  Market. 

Exceptionally  cool  weather  prevailed 
last  week,  making  stock  a  little  scarce, 
especially  roses.  Lilies  seem  to  be  about 
done,  but  a  few  stragglers  are  still 
hanging  on.  Good  stock  is  not  to  be 
had.  A  large  amount  of  outdoor  stock, 
such  as  snapdragons,  sweet  peas  and 
calliopsis,  has  arrived  and  has  relieved 
the  market  somewhat.  Carnations  are 
now  so  small  that  they  would  almost 
pass  for  hardy  pinks  and  the  color  is 
poor. 

Gladioli  are  arriving  in  fairly  good 
condition  and,  owing  to  the  shortage, 
clean  up  readily.  Valley  is  scarce  and 
the  amount  that  is  arriving  is  so 
meager  that  one  man  can  use  all  of  it 
and  not  be  overstocked.  The  first 
rubrum  lilies  arrived  last  week  and 
cleaned  up  readily.  Pond  lilies  are  also 
arriving  in  larger  numbers  now  and  are 
selling  well  at  $4  to  $6  per  hundred. 

Feverfew  is  now  arriving  and  is  a 
welcome  flower,  as  other  items  are  slow- 
ing up.  Greenhouse  smilax  is  arriving 
much  better  than  it  has  for  some  time 
and  cleans  up  well. 

Various  Notes. 

T.  W.  Hardesty  has  had  some  fine 
window  displays  during  the  last  week. 

C.  E.  Critchell  is  getting  some  fine 
Gladiolus  America  from  L.  Pfeiffer.

The  Florists^  Review 


July  1,  11)20 


RETAIL  STORE  MANAGEMENT 

WHAT  THE  LEADERS  IN  THE  TRADE  ARE  DOING 


PUSH  TELEGRAPH  DELIVERY. 


Many  Obstacles  Overcome. 

Telcgrapli  deliveiy,  like  every  new 
enterprise,  at  first  met  with  a  great 
many  obstacles.  Florists  there  were 
who  could  see  no  good  in  such  a  service, 
only  flashy,  catchy  notoriety,  which 
would  do  more  harm  than  good.  The 
practical  workings  of  such  a  system  were 
not  understood.  However,  the  persis- 
tent efforts  of  a  few  pioneers  and  the 
gradual  awakening  of  the  public  to  the 
groat  benefits  of  such  a  system  have 
brought  about  a  feeling  of  cooperation 
among  the  florists  such  as  nothing  else 
has  ever  been  able  to  effect.  The  re- 
cent great  strides  of  this  kind  of  busi- 
ness have  been  demonstrated  by  the.rec- 
ords  of  florists  who  have  sent  over  500 
orders  by  telegraph  in  a  single  day  and 
of  florists  who  have  thousands  of  orders 
throughout  the  year.  These  records, 
combined  with  the  injection  of  young 
blood  into  the  business,  have  resulted  in 
the  conversion  of  many  of  the  skeptics, 
pessimists  and  back  numbers.  But,  as 
yet,  far  too  few  florists  are  pushing  tele- 
graph delivery;  far  too  few  people  com- 
prehend the  workings  of  the  system. 
What  is  more,  many  of  the  pushers  are 
too  lukewarm  in  their  efforts,  too  care- 
less in  the  execution  of  orders  and  too 
sflow  in   paying  tlicir  bills. 

Observe  Principles. 

To  make  this  a  preeminently  success- 
ful proposition,  the  commonest  of  busi- 
ness principles  need  only  to  be  observed. 
The  orders  should  be  filled  as  if  they 
were  your  own.  Acknowledgment 
should  be  made  to  the  sending  florist. 
As  little  substitution  should  be  prac- 
ticed as  possible.  Above  all,  reciproca- 
tion is  essential.  A  complete  record  of 
orders  incoming  and  outgoing  will 
readily  indicate  the  florists  who  are 
best  to  deal  with,  and  will  eliminate 
<'onfusion  and  misunderstanding  and 
produce  the  harmony  and  cooperation  so 
badly  needed  in  our  business.  The  worst 
blow  that  a  new  effort  of  this  sort  can 
receive  is  to  find  the  recipient  complain- 
ing of  the  poor  quality  of  material  sent 
out. 

But  how  can  this  business  be  built  uji? 
Jt  may  be  done  largely  through  adver- 
tising and  through  education  of  the  pub- 
lic in  many  ways.  No  one  method  is 
})erfect  and  no  two  concerns  will  follow 
in  the  same  beaten  track.  A  few  illus- 
trations as  to  how  a  campaign  may  be 
conducted  might  be  useful,  though  nat- 
urally many  variations  of  these  methods 
will  suggest  themselves  in  different  lo- 
calities. 

Getting  the  Business. 

If  situated  in  a  prominent  location, 
window  displays  featuring  telegraph  de- 
livery are  probably  the  greatest  sPngle 
asset.  The  effectiveness  of  the  window 
depends  upon  its  simplicity  and  its  clear 
4'xposition  of  the  objects  it  is  intended  to 
jiortray.  As  an  instance  of  this,  a  coun- 


try road  was  staged  in  a  window  with 
the  proper  effects  in  scenery,  including 
houses  nestling  in  the  hills,  trees,  fences 
and  the  like,  the  main  feature  being, 
however,  a  representation  of  a  florist's 
shop  with  telegraph  wires  running  from 
the  roof  to  poles  along  the  road,  the 
wires  terminating  upon  numerous  points 
of  a  globe.  A  suitable  inscription  upon  a 
placard  indicated  the  purpose  of  the 
window.  A  surprising  number  of  peo- 
ple showed  inclination  either  to  try  the 
method  or  at  least  to  be  shown  its  mi- 
nute workings. 

Another  window  serving  the  same 
purpose  was  staged  for  Mothers'  day, 
showing  a  large  book  with  a  picture  of 
a  mother  on  the  one  side  and  on  the 
other  a  brief   explanation   of   Mothers'

day  and  the  workings  of  telegraph  de- 
livery. It  proved  quite  effective.  The 
Review  on  several  occasions  has  indi- 
cated other  window  displays  of  a  simi- 
lar nature. 

Advertisements  in  the  motion  picture 
theaters,  either  in  the  form  of  animated 
films  or  of  slides,  present  a  suitable  me- 
dium of  bringing  before  the  public  the 
great  idea.  Such  advertisements  are 
particularly  valuable,  as  theatergoers 
are  bound  to  read  what  is  on  the  screen 
and,  if  nothing  else,  interest  and  curi- 
osity are  created.  Both  the  films  and 
slides  should  contain  as  little  reading 
matter  as  possible  and  yet  be  perfectly 
clear. 

On  Special  Occasions. 

The  installation  of  a  telegraph  opera- 
tor for  special  occasions  has  answered 
its  purpose  well.  It  has  been  tried  by 
some  florists  and  has  always  resulted  in 
an  increased  volume  of  business.  The 
psychological  effect  of  sending  a  tele- 
gram direct  without  any  intervening 
agencies  is  a  great  asset  in  inducing 
people  to  buy.  Folders,  newspaper  ad- 
vertising and  street  car  advertising  are 


all  means  that  may  be  readily  employed 
in  boosting  the  business. 

On  the  whole,  it  might  be  said  that 
the  expense  and  effort  required  to  do  a 
good  telegraph  business  are  so  small  as 
to  recommend  the  plan  strongly  to  any 
progressive  florist,  regardless  of  his  lo- 
cation or  the  size  of  his  town.  The  un- 
doubted increase  in  the  flower  business 
may  be  partly  laid  to  this  ingenious 
method.  It  has  influenced  the  sending 
of  flowers  on  occasions  when  gifts  of 
other  natures  were  the  rule.  But  it  is 
only  through  thorough  reliability  of  one 
florist  upon  another,  honest  cooperation 
and  proper  recognition  of  business  and 
ethical  principles  involved  that  success 
may  be  achieved  in  the  long  run.

THAT    LITTLE    BLUE    PORCELAIN. 

Do  florists  comprehend  the  value  of 
pottery  and  other  ware  as  side  lines  in 
their  store?  Not  as  accessories  or 
something  to  pick  up  a  few  odd  pennies' 
profit,  but  as  a  genuine  aid  to  their 
flower  sales. 

"Why  don't  you  carry  any  recep- 
tacles for  flowers  in  your  store?"  asked 
a  lady  of  the  proprietor  of  a  flower 
store  the  other  day.  "I'm  sure  they'd 
help  your  sales.  I  know  they  would 
from  my  own  case. 

"A  friend  sent  me  a  lovely  gift  of 
flowers  in  a  little  blue  porcelain  piece, 
which  I  prized  a  great  deal.  Indeed,  I 
just  had  to  keep  flowers  in  it  all  the 
time,  though  I  never  before  had  bought 
flowers  at  all  frequently.  Now  I've 
broken  it  and  not  wanting  to  hunt  up 
an  art  shop,  I  naturally  came  in  here. 
I'm  so  disappointed." 

Just  one  case?  There  would  be  many 
more  like  her  if  florists  would  use  this 
means  of  creating  the  custom  of  keep- 
ing flowers  in  the  home.  The  lines  are 
quite  rich  in  both  novelties  and  staple 
styles.  A  small  selection  invariably 
leads  to  the  florist's  increasing  the  size 
of  his  stock  after  he  sees  the  response 
from  his  patrons. 


THE  SHOP  ON  THE  AVENUE. 

The  difference  between  the  dress- 
maker on  the  side  street  and  the  mo- 
diste 's  shop  on  the  avenue  is  the  dif- 
ference between  merchandise  plus  labor 
and  merchandise  plus  art.  The  former 
takes  a  few  yards  of  material  and  makes 
a  dress;  the  latter  takes  the  same  few 
yards  of  material  and  the  result  is  what 
is  called  a  creation.  The  dressmaker 
gets  $10  for  her  work;  the  modiste  re- 
ceives $100. 

There  is  a  lesson  in  that  difference 
for  florists,  if  they  have  not  barkened 
to  it  already.  Between  the  mere  mer- 
chandiser of  flowers,  not  far  above  the 
street  peddler,  and  the  skillful  creator 
of  floral  effects  is  a  world  of  difference. 
The  retail  florist  who  would  advance  in 
his  trade  can  best  do  so  by  giving 
thought  to  the  artistic,  the  creative  part 
of  his  business.    He  need  not  sell  greater

quantities  of  flowers  to  receive  a  greater 
personal  return;  he  may,  indeed,  sell 
fewer.  But  the  knowledge  and  skill 
which  he  adds  to  those  flowers  will  de- 
mand a  greater  return  from  his  cus- 
tomers. For,  in  reality,  since  people 
buy  flowers  because  of  their  love  of 
beauty,  their  artistic  sense  is  more  grati- 
fied by  the  arrangement  of  flowers  than 
by  the  blooms  themselves.  Flowers  may 
be  arranged  in  an  unlovely  manner;  ail 
florists  know  that.  Then  the  greatest 
degree  of  beauty  in  arrangement  should 
be  the  aim  of  the  retailer — so  that  he 
will  be  in  a  class  with  the  specialty  shops 
on  the  avenue  and  not  with  the  places 
on  the  side  street.  Pains  and  study 
are  necessary,  but  there  is  ample  re- 
ward— in  satisfaction  and  in  remunera- 
tion, as  you  wish.

Business  Building 
With  Blurbs  and  Blunders 


Sending  a  funeral  wreath  to  a  bride,  by  mis- 
take, is  a  blurb. 

Mixing  the  cards  of  a  $3.00  bunch  of  Carna- 
tions with  one  for  a  $v5.00  box  of  Heauiies, 
each  intended  to  "^ay  With  Flowers" 
to  a  fair  lady  what  two  admirers'  hearts 
were  too  full  to  say  in  words,  is  a  blunder. 

Similar  things  happen  to  all  of  us. 

I'oth  of  them  recently  happened  to  us. 

On  first  thought,  it  looks  like  carelessness, 
and  bad  business. 

It  is  some  of  one;  but  not  a  bit  of  the  other. 

We  turned  both  the  blurb  and  the  blunder 
into  the  best  of  business  building. 

Just  how  we  did  it,  we  are  not  publishing 
broadcast. 

However,  next  time  you  are  in  New  York, 
drop  in  and  see  me  and  I'll  make  a  little 
sketch  of  it  on  the  back  of  an  old  envelope.

sigii,  carrying  any  announcement  de- 
sired. Every  florist  should  have  a  sign 
on  his  place.  The  public  is  interested, 
always,  in  knowing  whose  place  of  busi- 
ness they  are  viewing  and  a  billboard 
will  not  only  fill  this  requirement,  but 
spread  the  gospel  of  ' '  Say  It  with  Flow- 
ers." The  cost  of  a  board,  $50,  is  not 
any  more  than  one  would  expect  to  pay 


for  a  decent  sign.  A  similar  sign,  out- 
side of  the  arrangement  made  by  our 
committee,  would  cost  $100.  Iron,  paint 
and  labor  are  expensive  items  today,  as 
all  of  us  know,  and  these  signs  at  $50 
each  are  bargains  really  and  truly. 

A  Touch  of  Color. 

Anotlier  thing,  they  ornament  a  place.

A  sign  nicely  located  sometimes  gives 
a  touch  of  color  to  a  rather  dreary  ex- 
panse of  glass.  It  conveys  the  idea  that 
flowers,  not  vegetables,  are  grown  under 
that  glass  and  that,  thus  grown,  they 
cost  money.  We  have  never  been  able 
to  impress  upon  the  public  the  fact  that 
the  production  of  flowers  under  glass 
is  costly  and  there  is  nothing  in  the  big 
stretches  of  glass  houses  seen  along  the 
highways  in  all  parts  of  the  country  to 
link  them  with  the  flowers  of  the  florist. 
These  signs  will  do  just  that  and  every 
florist  who  has  a  place  for  one  should 
invest  $50  and  see  that  a  sign  orna- 
ments his  establishment. 

We  are  pleased  to  note  a  little  re- 
si)onse  now  to  our  appeals  for  subscrip- 
tions which  the  publishers  of  the  trade 
papers  courteously  allow  us  to  place  in 
their  columns  every  week.  True,  the 
subscriptions  are  small,  but  we  welcome 
them  equally  with  the  large.  A  florist 
who  sends  in  $5  with  his  best  wishes 
for  the  campaign  is  a  good  fellow — he 
has  his  profession  at  heart  and  sends 
what  he  feels  he  can  afford  to  send.  It 
was  never  intended  that  a  contribution 
should  be  a  tax.  It  must  be  purely 
voluntary.  In  this  respect  our  cam- 
paign  is   different  from   the   campaigns

The  Market. 

With  the  passing  of  June  the  summer 
dullness  is  now  upon  us.  Reports  from 
the  leading  florists  indicate  that  this 
June  was  the  best  they  have  ever  had. 
Now  that  weddings,  class  days,  school 
commencements  and  society  functions 
are  at  an  end,  the  retailers  can  only 
look  to  funeral  work  for  business  and 
the  employees  are  each  taking  a  week 
or  two  of  vacation,  so  that  the  boss  can 
prepare  for  the  trip  to  Cleveland  to 
attend  the  S.  A.  F.  convention  in 
August. 

The  wholesale  market  is  in  fairly 
good  condition  as  to  supply,  but  quality 
is  missing  in  the  present  consignments.

color.  White  Killarney  is  a  good  seller, 
but  not  enough  are  coming  in  for  the 
demand.  Carnations  are  becoming 
fewer  each  week  and  the  few  that  come 
in  are  small  and  much  off  color.

talk  on  publicity,  outlining  the  Milwau- 
kee plan  and  telling  how  it  started  and 
what   great   success   they  were   having. 
He  said  that  the  success  was  due  to  the 
fact  that  they  had  100  per  cent  of  the 
retailers,      growers      and      wholesalers 
working  in  harmony  and  that  he  hoped

J.   F.   Ammann   responded  to   the   re-

local    trade    to    follow    the    Milwaukee 
brothers   and   make   St.   Louis   100    per 
cent.     Anyone  who  was  present  and  is 
not  paying  his  share  will  no  doubt  do 
so  in  the  immediate  future,  as  an  epi-

called  upon  and  explained  local  pub- 
licity and  the  work  of  the  nuMiibors  of 
the  local  committee. 

After  this  tlie  floor  was  given  over 
to  the  younger  follcs  for  dancing  until 
midniglit.  All  present  declared  this  to 
bo  one  of  the  best  affairs  ever  given  by 
the  club  in  its  thirty-four  years  of 
existence. 

Publicity  Committee  Meets. 

Tiie  publicity  committee  held  its 
regular  meeting  Tuesday  evening,  June 
22,  at  headquarters,  1316  Pine  street, 
and  transacted  a  large  amount  of  busi- 
ness. 

The  various  committees  in  diarge  of 
tlie  banquet  reported  that  arrangements 
were  complete.  Then  the  secretary's 
report  on  the  financial  standing  of  Hie 
committee,  which  was  pleasing,  was 
read. 

The  matter  of  arranging  a  florists' 
niglit  at  the  open-air  opera  in  Forest 
park,  to  be  known  as  the  "Say  It  with 
Flowers"  night,  at  which  5,000  roses 
would  be  distributed  during  the  eve- 
ning, came  up  for  discussion.  Then  the 
chair  appointed  a  committee  of  four, 
consisting  of  Frank  A.  Windier,  D.  S. 
Geddis,  Nat  Kingsley  and  Frank  X. 
Gorly,  to  make  all  arrangements  for 
a  night  during  July  and  report  at  the

fine  business  season. 

J.  F.  Ammann  says  he  was  compelled 
to  cancel  his  Baltimore  engagement, 
much  to  his  sorrow,  owing  to  a  spell  of 
sickness,  from  which  he  has  now  re- 
covered; he  will  be  at  Pleasant  Hill, 
Mo.,  July  5  to  meet  and  talk  to  th» 
growers  of  Missouri.  He  is  looking  for 
a  large  number  to  accompany  him  from 
St.  Louis. 

Mrs.  T.  Diemer,  of  the  Diemer  Floral 
Co.,  South  Broadway,  reports  a  heavy 
business  for  weddings  all  last  month. 

Mrs.  Oscar  Heile  says  that  last  month 
was  good  in  all  lines. 

The  Skinner  irrigation  system  is 
working  overtime  these  hot  days  out  in 
the  county  among  the  various  estab- 
lishments and  the  outdoor  crop  of  roses 
and  gladioli  is  expected  to  be  the  largest

fore  the  date  given,  follow-up  cards  or 
letters  will  be  sent  to  the  list,  suggest- 
ing a  box  of  flowers  as  a  graceful  re- 
membrance. 

The  Bennett  Greenhouse  is  special- 
izing in  ferns,  having  several  varieties, 
but  more  Boston  than  any  other. 

William  Wade,  local  manager  of  the 
I'inehurst  Fhiral  Co.,  spent  JSiunlay, 
June  20,  fishing  at  Baldwin 's  lake, 
Pleasant  Hill,  Mo. 

Miss  Wally  Bauer,  daughter  of  Mr. 
and  Mrs.  Peter  Bauer,  and  .John  Klaus 
were  married  Saturday  afternoon,  June 
26,  at  Graeeland  P'arm,  Greenwood,  Mo. 
A  number  of  florists  from  here  went 
down  for  the  event. 

The  T.  J.  Noll  Floral  Co.  building  is 
completed  and  ready  for  the  installation 
of  the  Lipman  automatic  refrigerating 
machine   which   has   been   ordered. 

The  MuehU'l)ach  f^'lower  Shop  lias  re- 
ceived the  second  shipment  of  South 
American  paTupas  grass,  painted  with 
an  air  brush  in  sliades  of  blue,  green 
and  lavender.  The  sprays  are  from 
four  to  six  feet  long.  Another  novelty 
that  is  selling  fast  is  corsages  made  of 
organdy  flowers.  They  are  made  by  a 
Kansas  City  woman  who  started  the 
work  to  raise  money  for  a  church  and 
now  has  all  she  can  do.  The  flowers 
are  on  the  order  of  the  wool  bout- 
tonnieres  worn  last  winter,  but  are 
larger  and  designed   for  summer  use. 

Mr.  and  Mrs.  John  Furrow,  Guthrie, 
Okla.,  and  Mrs.  Nellie  McDowell,  Gar- 
nett,   Kan.,  were  recent  visitors. 

J.  C.  Lambert,  of  tlie  Ove  Gnatt  Co., 
Laporte,  Ind.,  called  on  the  trade  last 
week.  J.  E.  K. 


11.  C.  Pfeiffcr,  of  Mount  St.  Mary's

and  plans  following  other  florists'  foot-

The  Market. 

The  supply  and  the  demand  were 
about  equal  last  week;  that  is,  for  good 
stoek.  The  usual  supi)ly  of  inferior 
suninier  stock  is  already  beginning  to 
make  its  appearance. 

Roses,  while  not  so  plentiful,  are  in 
most  cases  holding  up  well  and  clean 
up  each  day.  Carnations  are  pretty 
well  over.  There  are  many  of  the  in- 
ferior grades  arriving  on  the  market. 
Some  growers  are  still  sending  in  some 
really  fine  blooms.  There  was  a  good 
supply  of  delphiniums  on  the  market 
last  week  and  by  the  way  they  sold  the 
public  must  have  appreciated  them. 
There  was  a  fine  stock  of  Easter  lilies 
last  week  and  it  was  surprising  the  way 
they  cleaned  up.  While  the  siijiply  was 
large  for  this  season,  yet  more  could 
liave  been  handled.  There  was  a  large 
riuantity  of  rambler  sprays  handled; 
many  of  the  retailers  took  advantage 
of  tliem   for  window  decorations. 

The  question  of  greens,  which  was  so 
acute  a  few  weeks  ago,  has  eased  np, 
and  it  is  possible  to  get  all  of  the  local 
stock  that  is  required. 

There  was  the  usual  su])]dy  of  all 
miscellaneous  stock  and  the  market  was 
a  satisfactory  one  from  every  view- 
point. 

A  Note  of  Interest.

mined to  take  their  time  and  secure  the 
best  man  available  and  when  they  de- 
termined on  William  F.  Ekas  everyone 
felt  that  they  had  been  successful  in  ob- 
taining what  they  set  out  to  find.  For 
the  last  four  or  five  years  he  has  been 
associated  with  the  Leo  Niessen  Co.  in

the  wholesale  end  of  the  business.  He 
is  president  of  the  Baltimore  Florists' 
Club,  state  vice-president  of  the  S.  A.  F., 
and  identified  with  every  move  to  ad- 
vance the  interests  of  the  trade.  He 
was  one  of  the  original  pushers  in  the 
Associated  Florists'  movement  in  this 
city. 

The  Advertising  Campaign. 

The  reorganized  committee  is  arrang- 
ing to  throw  some  "pep"  into  the  cam- 
]iaign.  Tuesday,  June  22,  it  had  a  fine 
i)ride's  advertisement  in  the  Evening 
Sun.  If  you  noted  the  way  it  was  writ- 
ton,  you  have  an  idea  of  the  policy  the 
committee  proposes  to  pursue.  The 
idea,  and  the  committee  is  strongly 
backed  up  in  it  by  the  Deatel  Adver- 
tising Service,  is  to  educate  the  public; 
in  other  words,  they  intend  to  take  the 
public  into  their  confidence.  If  any 
item  of  stock  is  scarce  or  high,  they  are 
going  to  tell  them  why  this  is  the  case 
and  then  offer  some  practical  suggestion 
to  get  around  this  difficulty.  They  be- 
lieve that  the  public  is  willing  to  be 
shown  and,  if  it  is  done  in  the  proper 
manner,  will  understand.  The  week- 
end box  is  becoming  a  big  thing.  Last 
week  one  of  the  largest  mercantile  in- 
dustries in  the  city  sent  six  boxes  to 
sick  employees  in  hospitals.  This  was 
a  hint  to  the  committee. 

Various  Notes. 

Philip  B.  Welsh  has  again  demon- 
strated that  he  is  a  close  student  of 
the  market.  Whenever  there  is  a 
marked  shortage  of  any  particular  item 
of  stock  he  can  always  be  depended  on 
to  be  one  of  the  first  growers  to  fill  the 
gap.  This  time  he  was  on  hand  with  a 
heavy  cut  of  plumosus  just  when  it  was 
needed   most.

Last  week  F.  W.  Reineeke,  of  Col- 
fjate,  was  sending  in  about  1,200  Easter 
lilies  a  day.  Mr.  Keinecke  certainly 
struck  the  market  right  with  his  crop, 
for  they  all  cleaned  up  well. 

William  J.  Kennedy,  of  Pikesville,  is 
sending  Enchantress  and  White  En- 
chantress carnations  that  are  nearly  as 
fine  as  they  were  in  the  winter.

There  was  a  great  shortage  last  week 
of  all  kinds  of  cut  flowers,  due  to  the 
large  demand  for  graduations  and  wed- 
dings. Peonies  are  almost  at  their  end, 
the    supply    being    greatly    diminished.

year  and  colonial  bouquets  have  come 
back  into  favor. 

Sweet  peas  are  poor,  because  of  the 
cold,  rainy  weather  at  this  time  of  the 
year.  They  retail  at  $1  per  bunch.  The 
new  miniature  rose.  Baby  Doll,  is  a 
favorite  and  has  good  keeping  quali- 
ties. Japanese  iris  has  made  its  appear- 
ance and  is  quite  serviceable.  The 
shortage  of  greens  is  over  as  a  result 
of  the  arrival  of  large  quantities  of 
fancy  ferns  from  the  east.  Asparagus 
plumosus  has  ;ilso  become  more  plen- 
tiful. 

Various  Notes. 

Mr.  and  Mrs.  Robert  Havill  are  re- 
joicing over  the  arrival  of  a  daughter 
at  their  home  June  23.  Her  name  is 
Fern   Alice   Havill. 

Herman  Zahn,  of  H.  E.  Wilson's,  exe- 
cuted an  artistic  wedding  decoration 
June  24,  using  daisies,  syringa  and  hem- 
lock branches,  with  groups  of  palms 
for  a  background.  The  delivery  wagon 
of  this  firm  was  damaged  June  23  when 
the  horse  became  frightened  and  ran 
away,  colliding  with  several  objects.

the  victim  recently.  A  man  came  into 
his  store  and  ordered  some  flowers, 
offering  a  large  check  in  payment, 
which  Mr.  Keller  cashed.  The  cheek 
was  found  to  be  worthless.

part  of  tlie  year  there  seemed  little 
hope  that  labor  conditions  would  im- 
prove, but  the  influx  of  men  recently, 
I)articularly  from  Scotland,  has  resulted 
in  the  work  being  caught  up  with  to  a 
great  extent. 

The  season  for  planting  out  is  much 
later  than  usual,  owing  to  the  dry 
spring,  but  the  carnations  are  now  all 
in  the  field  and  the  chrysanthemums 
are  well  established  on  the  benches  un- 
der glass.  The  outdoor  stock  has 
picked  up  wonderfully,  owing  to  the 
recent  heavy  rains,  and  the  quality  is 
excellent  for  the  time  of  the  year. 

Large  crops  of  tomatoes  are  ripening 
at  ])resent  and  meet  with  a  ready  sale 
at  45  cents  per  pound.  The  demand  for 
hotli  fruit  and  vegetables  is  greater  this 
June  than  ever  before.  Those  who  are 
fortunate  enough  to  have  early  vege- 
tables have  no  difficulty  in  disposing 
of   them. 

Orchids  still  retain  their  popularity 
and  are  quickly  used  up  at  60  and  75 
cents  per  bloom. 

Various  Notes. 

The  large  new  coal  sheds  at  the  Dale 
Estate  have  just  been  completed  aid 
the  coal  for  next  winter  is  already  be- 
ginning to  arrive.  Work  on  the  new 
heating  section  is  being  continued  vig- 
orously. The  Skinner  irrigation  sys- 
tem recently  installed  here  is  giving 
most  satisfactorv  results.  Six  more  .300

Various  Notes. 

Florists  should  be  on  the  lookout  for 
bad  check  artists.  Carl  Huber  and 
Tuderwood  Bros,  were  taken  in  Friday, 
June  2."),  when  a  man  ajjpearcd  and 
ordered  flowers  for  an  overseas  veteran 
su])posed  to  be  buried  Friday  afternoon. 
Floral  wreaths  costing  $15  were  ordered 
and  a  check  for  $25  was  tendered, 
signed  F.  A.  Becker,  who  in  return  was 
given  $10  in  change.  He  ordered  a  card 
attached  to  the  wreaths,  "From  em- 
ployees of  the  sheriff's  office."  When 
the  address  could  not  be  found,  the  flo- 
rists telephoned  the  sheriff's  office  and 
were  informed  that  no  flowers  had  been 
ordered. 

Rolf  Zetlitz  is  now  cutting  roses  at 
the  Columbus  greenhouses. 

The  opening  of  the  new  store  of  the

San  Diego,  Cal. — Chris  Westergaard 
has  bought  the  establishment  of  Boyle  & 
Darnaud  and  is  operating  it  as  the  Rose 
Court  Floral  Co.,  doing  a  wholesale 
business.  Mr.  Westergaard  has  been  in 
Europe  since  he  left  the  employ  of  the 
Miller  Floral  Co.,  Farmington,  Utah. 

LOS  ANGELES,  CAL. 

Charles  Morton,  of  Phoenix,  Ariz.,  is 
in  the  city,  taking  a  much  needed  rest. 
Mr.  Morton  recently  bought  the  floral 
department  of  the  Donofrio  Confec- 
tionery Co.,  Phoenix,  which  will  for  the 
present  continue  under  the  name  of 
Donofrio  Floral  department. 

The  committee  of  the  florists'  club 
on  cooperative  advertising  reports  that 
it  is  progressing  well  with  the  sub- 
scriptions and  hopes  soon  to  report  that 
the  full  amount  of  $10,000  has  been 
subscribed. 

C.  J.  Michelsen,  manager  of  the  E.  C. 
Amling  Co.,  Chicago,  spent  last  week 
visiting  E.  C.  Amling,  at  Sawtelle. 

Martin  Reukauf,  of  H.  Bayersdorfer 
&  Co.,  Philadelphia,  and  Robert  New- 
comb,  of  the  Burlington  Willow  Ware 
Shops,  Burlington,  la.,  are  in  the  city 
calling  on  the  trade. 

Daniel  MacRorie,  of  San  Francisco, 
was  in  the  city  last  week  calling  on  his 
friends. 

P.  Brown  has  sold  his  store  to  S. 
Seki,  possession  being  given  July  1. 

Judging  from  the  attractive  new 
Dodge  delivery  car  of  the  Hollywood 
Flower  Shop,  business  must  be  good. 

Boyce  Chezem,  of  the  shipping  de- 
partment of  Walter  Armacost  &  Co., 
was  married  to  Miss  Muriel  Tait,  of 
Watts,  Cal.,  June  20.  Mr.  and  Mrs. 
Chezem  are  spending  their  honeymoon 
at  Big  Bear  lake. 

Andrew  Bruce,  of  Alexandria  Florist, 
was  married  last  week  to  Miss  Neu- 
meyer. 

Roy  Wilcox  left  for  a  two  weeks' 
business  trip  to  Council  Bluffs,  la. 

P.  C.  Miller  Co.,  having  had  trouble 
through  the  similarity  of  its  name  and 
that  of  other  concerns  here,  has  decided 
to  change  its  corporate  title  to  Califor- 
nia Floral  Co.  There  will  be  no  other 
change,  management,  location,  etc.,  re- 
maining the  same.  It  is  expected  the 
use  of  the  distinctive  name  will  result 
in  more  prompt  mail,  telegraph  and  ex- 
press service. 

SAN   FRANCISCO,   CAL. 


The  Market. 

Extremely  hot  weather  over  the  week- 
end June  20  played  havoc  with  the  cut 
flower  business  here.  Roses  suffered  a 
little  more  than  most  other  kinds  of 
stock,  but  nothing  escaped.  The  daily 
receipts  opened  up  and  died  about  as 
fast  as  they  came  in.  Both  wholesalers 
and  retailers  experienced  great  diffi- 
culty in  handling  their  orders.  Stock 
that  has  arrived  since  the  weather 
cooled  off  shows  some  improvement. 
The  demand  has  improved  also,  as  the 
week  has  advanced,  which  augurs  well 
for  increased  business  during  the  Demo- 
cratic national  convention.  Values  are 
already  stiffening  up  a  little. 


Good  carnations  seem  to  be  in  particu- 
larly good  demand  and  the  same  may  be 
said  of  the  better  grades  of  roses.  Of 
the  latter,  Columbia  seems  to  be  gain- 
ing in  popularity,  although  Russells 
continue  to  have  a  strong  call. 

Gladioli  are  having  a  satisfactory 
season,  the  demand  being  about  equal 
to  the  supply.  They  will  be  followed 
closely  by  asters  and  chrysanthemums, 
as  both  of  these  flowers,  which  figure 
prominently  in  California  shipping  busi- 
ness, are  early  this  year.  A  few  chrys- 
anthemums put  in  an  appearance  dur- 
ing the  last  week  and  asters  are  due 
almost  any  time  now.  Shipping  orders 
are  already  being  booked  and  all  indi- 
cations point  to  a  heavier  movement  of 
both  chrysanthemums  and  asters  this 
year  than  ever  before,  provided  the 
weather  conditions  are  favorable  for  the 
successful  development  of  the  large 
acreage  under  cultivation. 

Sweet  peas  are  plentiful  and  there  is 
an  abundance  of  gaillardias,  coreopsis, 
stocks,  strawflowers  and   other  season- 


able offerings.  Orchids  are  sufficient 
for  requirements  and  gardenias  are  in 
about  the  same  position.  Lily  of  the 
valley  comes  in  nicely  for  the  June  wed- 
ding season. 

Various  Notes. 

Louis  Pieetti,  manager  of  the  Charles 
C.  Navlet  Co.  store  in  this  city,  reports 
business  holding  up  well  for  this  cime 
of  the  year,  the  seed,  nursery  and  gar- 
den supply  trade  sharing  activity  with 
the  demand  for  cut  flowers.  The  Oak- 
land store,  •  which  was  opened  recently 
at  917  Washington  street,  is  doing  nice- 
ly also,  Mr.  Pieetti  says.  It  is  under 
the  management  of  Mr.  Lombardo,  for- 
merly of  San  Jose.  The  San  Jose  head- 
quarters have  had  an  especially  busy 
week  on  account  of  school  closings, 
graduation  exercises  being  a  week  later 
there  than  in  the  bay  district. 

The  busiest  June  in  the  history  of  the 
business  is  the  report  at  Albert  0. 
Stein's  place,  on  Sutter  street,  near 
Polk.     The  record  of  a  wedding  a  day

J.  A.  AXELL 

Wholesale  Commission  Florist 

463  BUSH  STREET 

SAN  FRANCISCO,  CALIFORNIA 


a  good  month  at  her  establishment.  She 
is  now  making  arrangements  with  an 
interior  decorator  to  brighten  up  the 
appearance  of  the  store  a  little. 

A.  E.  Mauff,  of  the  Mauff  Floral  Co., 
Denver,  Colo.,  paid  the  trade  a  visit  in 
San  Francisco  on  his  way  liomc,  after 
visiting  relatives  at  Los  Angeles. 

About  half  of  the  Podesta  &  Bal- 
docchi  force  is  on  vacation,  which 
makes  it  rather  a  rush  time  for  those 
on  duty.  Dan  Bacigalupi  is  one  of  the 
next  to  leave.  He  is  looking  forward 
to  an  outing  in  the  Calaveras  big  tree 
section.  N.  F.  Baldocchi  reports  busi- 
ness active  for  this  time  of  the  year. 
Just  now  his  attention  is  largely  taken 
up  with  the  decoration  of  the  audi- 
torium for  the  Democratic  national  con- 
vention. 

Joseph's  was  busy  last  month  with 
weddings  and  has  a  good  many  table 
decorations  booked  for  the  convention 
period. 

A  good  many  of  the  florists'  estab- 
lishments in  the  downtown  business  dis- 
trict have  posters  in  the  windows  say- 
ing, "This  store  will  close  at  noon  Sun- 
days from  June  20  to  September  26." 

A  fire  at  the  nursery  of  Ferrari  Bros, 
might  have  done  serious  damage  had  it 
started  during  the  night  instead  of  the 
early  morning,  wlien  it  was  readily  dis- 
covered and  soon  brought  under  con- 
trol. The  blaze,  started  from  an  over- 
heated boiler  in  one  of  the  buildings. 
Some  plants  were  destroyed,  but  the  en- 
tire loss  will  probably  not  exceed  $1,000. 

Henry  Avansino,  who  has  purchased 
what  was  known  as  the  small  nursery 
of  the  E.  W.  McLellan  Co.,  at  San 
Leandro,  plans  to  erect  two  more  green- 
houses iiF  lie  can  got  tlie  glass.  On  the 
place  now  tlierc  are  three  houses  of 
roses,  one  devoted  to  American  Beauty 
and  two  to  Russell.  One  of  the  new 
ones  he  would  plant  to  Russell  and  the 
other  to  Columbia  roses.  Two  and  a 
half  acres  of  land  constituted  the  sale 
and  Mr.  Avansino  hopes  to  be  able  to 
get  more  of  an  acreage  in  the  vicinity 
before  long  and  eventually  erect  a  nice 
home  on  the  property. 

J.  A.  Axell  has  had  a  bad  case  of  oak 
poisoning, which  was  particularly  annoy- 
ing since  he  did  not  even  have  the  sat- 
isfaction of  an  outing  in  the  country 
in  connection  with  it.  He  contracted 
the  poisoning  by  handling  huckleberry 
or  other  greens  brought  in  from  some 
poison  oak  section. 

Martin  Reukauf,  representing  H. 
Bayersdorfer  &  Co.,  Philadelphia,  was 
a  recent  visitor  to  the  local  trade.

SPOKANE,  WASH. 


The  Market. 

The  supply  now  is  chiefly  made  up  of 
outside  stock  and  is  sufficient  in  quan- 
tity to  meet  the  demand.  Some  fine 
gladioli  are  to  be  had  in  greenhouse 
stock  and  they  clean  up  daily.  Wed- 
ding and  graduation  work  has  kept  most 
of  the  stores  busy. 

Club  Meeting. 

Monday,  June  14,  the  regular  meet- 
ing of  the  Spokane  Florists'  Club  was 
held  at  the  Spokane  hotel.  The  guest 
of  honor  was  Mrs.  Ruth  Day,  president 
of  the  Pacific  Coast  Association  of 
Nurserymen.  The  speakers  of  the  eve- 
ning were  S.  Yonkin,  A.  Eahn  and  H. 
Hill. 

Mr.  Hill  spoke  on  the  necessity  of 
keeping  the  price  of  flowers  down  on 
Mothers'  day,  as  stock  at  that  time  is 
always  plentiful  and  the  florist  reaps 
a  good  harvest  with  prices  normal. 
Mr.  Yonkin  spoke  on  the  needs  of  Me- 
morial day,  saying  that  it  was  one  day 
that  the  growers  do  not  plan  ahead  for, 
as  they  should,  especially  regarding 
potted  plants.  Mr.  Eahn  spoke  on  how 
and  when  to  buy,  speaking  mainly  for 
the  growers. 

The  attendance  was  the  largest  in 
many  months  and  all  present  expressed 
satisfaction  with  the  year's  business. 

Various  Notes. 

The  Davenport  Flower  Shop  had  a 
nice  wedding  decoration  in  the  Daven- 
port hotel  for  a  prominent  wedding 
which  took  place  June  14. 

C.  Enis,  who  for  the  last  year  has 
had  charge  of  A.  J.  Burt's  greenhouses, 
has  accepted  a  position  with  H.  L. 
Olsson  Co.  Mr.  Burt  intends  to  close 
his  greenhouses,  the  ground  being  quite 
valuable.  H.  H. 


SEATTLE,  WASH. 


The  Market. 

Ideal  growing  conditions  have  exist- 
ed all  over  the  Pacific  northwest  for 
the  last  week  and  have  caused  an  al- 
most complete  reversal  of  the  stock  sit- 
uation from  the  close  of  the  previous 
week.  Peonies,  violets  and  Spanish  iris 
are  plentiful  and  the  prices  on-  the  last 
two  offerings  have  been  lowered  by 
growers  to  partly  offset  the  oversupply. 
Carnations  are  also  in  liberal  supply 
and  will  continue  to  increase  for  some 
time,  as  the  outdoor  stock  is  arriving. 
These  almost  cause  a  glut  some  days. 

Business  has  been  generally  good, 
partly  due  to  graduations.  Baskets 
were  apparent!}'  the  most  popular  item 
with  those  who  were  buying  for  the 
graduates,  although  a  large  amount  of 
cut  flowers  went  to  the  same  affairs. 
There  has  been  plenty  of  work  on  wed- 
dings and  several  of  the  larger  retail- 
ers state  that  the  average  expenditure 
shows  a  greater  increase  than  would  be 
necessary  to  keep  even  with  the  high 
cost  of  flowers.  Funeral  business  has 
been  about  the  average. 

Outdoor  offerings  have  assumed  prac- 
tical control  of  the  market  and  promise

manded    general    interest    among    the 
buyers  of  the  better  baskets. 

The  only  items  coming  from  the  south 
now  are  maidenhair  ferns  and  aspara- 
gus. Some  of  the  Cecile  Brunner  roses 
from  local  growers  are  all  that  could  be  > 
asked  on  color  now  and  some  fine  Co- 
lumbia and  Ward  have  also  been  shown. 
Ophelia  is  probably  in  lighter  supply 
than  any  other  variety  at  this  time. 
Local  growers  expect  to  offer  several 
new  varieties  of  roses  this  season  and 
some  of  these  were  introduced  at  the 
annual  show  of  the  Washington  Eose 
Society,  held  June  29  at  the  University 
of  Washington  museum. 

Gladioli  are  holding  up  splendidly  as 
to  quality.  Mrs.  Francis  King  is  being 
featured  in  nearly  every  window. 

One  firm  is  supplying  a  large  cut  of 
orchids,  not  only  for  the  local  trade  but 
tor  out-of-town  dealers  as  well.  There 
were  several  days  last  week  when  lily

Compilation  of  the  federal  and  state 
regulations  in  regard  to  the  shipment  of 
white  pines  and  ribes,  on  account  of  the 
white  pine  blister  rust,  has  been  made  by 
the  Department  of  Agriculture  and  ap- 
pears in  the  pamphlet  of  service  and 
regulatory  announcements  issued  June  11. 

The  Bulletin  of  Peony  News  for  April,

PROTECTIVE    ASSOCIATION. 

The  American  Nurserymen's  Protec- 
tive Association  held  its  annual  meeting 
at  the  Congress  hotel,  Chicago,  on  the 
evening  of  June  23.  After  transacting 
routine  business  and  conducting  its 
usual  discussion,  the  association  re- 
elected last  year's  officers,  as  follows: 

President — J.  W.  Hill,  Des  Moines,  la. 

Vice-president — C.  C.  Mayhew,  Sher- 
man, Tex. 

Secretary — Thomas  B.  Meehan,  Dresh- 
er,  Pa. 

Treasurer — Peter  Youngers,  Geneva, 
Neb.  

A.  A.  N.  CUTS  DUES. 


Action  Unites  Association. 

The  "electricity  in  the  air" — as  it 
was  vaguely  termed  on  the  convention 
floor — which  played  about  the  lobby  of 
the  Congress  hotel,  at  Chicago,  last 
Aveok  during  the  convention  of  the 
American  Association  of  Nurserymen, 
resulted  only  in  some  subdued  heat 
flashes,  without  producing  the  thunder 
and  storm  that  some  members  antici- 
pated or  feared.  The  result,  when  the 
disturbance  of  the  atmosphere  had  sub- 
sided, was  a  compromise,  upon  which 
tlie  organization  is  able  to  advance  in 
another  year's  work  with  united  ranks. 

The  final  session  of  the  convention 
adopted  the  executive  committee's  re- 
port, by  which  the  association  (1)  en- 
dorsed the  publicity  campaign  and  the 
trade-mark,  "Trustworthy  Trees  and 
Plants,"  but  undertook  no  financial 
responsibility  in  support  of  it;  (2)  in- 
structed the  executive  committee  to  in- 
vestigate the  matter  of  incorporating  the 
association  and  (3)  amended  the  consti- 
tution so  that  the  membership  dues,  in- 
cluding those  due  prior  to  the  1920  con- 
vention, should  be  according  to  the  fol- 
lowing schedule: 

Gross   annual    business  Dues 

$400,000  or  more $500 

350,000  to  $400,000 4.">(> 

300,000  to     3.50,000 400 

2.50,000  to     300,000 350 

200,000  to     250,000 300 

150,000  to     200,000 250

Wednesday's  Flashes. 

The  first  flickerings  of  the  electric 
disturbance  appeared  on  the  floor  of  the 
convention  Wednesday  afternoon,  June 
23.  Charles  Sizemore  presented  his  re- 
port as  traffic  manager,  calling  atten- 
tion to  one  increase  in  express  rates 
which  had  been  warded  off  by  the 
association's  officers  and  to  another,  of 
approximately  thirty-three  and  one-third 


per  cent,  which  would  probably  be  an- 
nounced in  July  or  August.  He  advised 
a  limitation  of  size  of  bale  or  box  and 
this  subject  was  referred  to  a  commit- 
tee, composed  of  George  C.  Boeding, 
chairman;  James  M.  Pitkin  and  W.  H. 
Wyman,  to  be  considered  together  with 
the  president's  address  and  other 
papers.  Mr.  Sizemore 's  figures  on  the 
association  income  were: 

Balance     $  6,746.07 

Dues     9,163.32 

Traffic    manager's   office 985.15 

Sundries     924.27 

Market  development   fund 10,927.15 

The    total    expenditures    during    the 

year  were  $21,017.04,  leaving  a  balance 

on  hand  of  $7,403.92,  to  which,  he  said, 

Mr.  Watson  had  added  $1,600  in  dues 

during    the    convention.      He    itemized 

the  expenditures  as  follows: 

President's   office    $      441.25 

legislative   committee    220.40 

Miscellaneous 1,780.10 

Executive    secretary's    salary 5,000.00 

Expenses,    secretary's    office 11,063.16 

Traffic   manager's   salary 1,500.00 

Expenses  of  above  ofBce 1,012.13 

The  mention  of  the  dues  aroused  the 
question  as  to  the  term  they  covered 
and  the  interpretation  of  the  executive 
committee,  issued  prior  to  the  conven- 
tion, that  the  year  ended  when  the  new 
officers  replaced  the  old  and  that  there- 
fore those  who  had  not  paid  the  fees 
due  prior  to  this  convention  were  mem-

Geatlemen: 

I  think  I  can  sum  up  in  just  three  words  the  reason  your 
organization  has  been  so  successful.  Those  three  words  are 
"DOING  THE  RIGHT." 

It  is  with  a  clear  conscience  that  I  speak  well  of  the  cavity 
work  your  experts  did  here  last  season.  Not  a  crack  in  the  cement 
or  a  sign  of  giving  way  at  the  sides  of  the  cavity  can  I  locate; 
the  filling  is  just  as  compact  as  the  day  your  men  placed  it  there. 

The  reputation  of  your  company,  I  feel  sure,  is  perfectly  safe 
in  the  hands  of  such  men  as  were  sent  here  last  year  to  treat  the 
trees,  and  those  working  on  the  estate  at  the  time  of  writing. 

My  best  wishes  go  with  them  and  your  company. 

Sincerely  yours,

^'    ""i/  real  Davey  Tree  Surgeon  it  in  the  employ  of  The  Davey  Tree  Expert  Co.,  Inc.,  and  the  public  is  cautioned  against   those  falsely  representing  them- 
selves.    An  agreement  made  with  the  Davey  Company  and  not  with  an  individual  is  certain  evidence  of  genuineness.

Wednesday's  Flashes. 


The  lii'st  tlickerings  of  the  electric 
distuibam-e  aiipe.ared  on  the  lloor  of  the 
con\('ntion  Wednesday  afternoon,  June 
2u.  Charles  8i/.emore  presented  his  re- 
]iort  as  trallic  manager,  calling  atten- 
tion to  on(>  increase  in  express  rates 
which  IukI  been  w.arded  (iff  by  the 
association's  ullicers  and  to  another,  of 
approximately  thirty-three  and  one-third 


per  cent,  which  woidd  probably  bo  an- 
nounced in  July  or  August.  He  advised 
a  limitation  of  size  of  bale  or  box  and 
this  subject  was  referred  to  a  commit- 
tee, composed  of  George  C.  Roeding, 
chairman;  James  M.  Pitkin  and  W.  H. 
Wyman,  to  be  considered  together  with 
the  president's  adtlrcss  and  other 
pa])ers.  JMr.  Sizemore  's  figures  on  the 
association   income  were:

The  total  exitenditures  during  the 
year  were  .$21,017.(11,  leaving  a  balance 
on  hand  of  ,$7,40:5. 92,  to  which,  he  said, 
Mr.  Watson  had  added  $1,G00  in  dues 
(hiring  the  convent it)n.  He  itemized 
the  expenditures  as  follows:

The  mention  of  the  dues  aroused  the 
(piestion  as  to  the  term  they  covered 
and  the  interpretation  of  the  executive 
committee,  issued  jtrior  to  the  couven 
tion,  that  the  year  ended  when  the  new 
oflicers  replaced  the  old  and  that  there-

due  prior  to  this  convention  were  mem-

Gi'iitlemeu: 

I  Ihiiik  I  can  sum  up  in  jusl  three  words  the  reason  your 
organization    has    lu-en    so    succes^lul.      Those    three     \vord>    are 
•DOING  THE  KiCllT." 

It  is  with  a  cloar  conscience  that  I  speak  weU  of  the  cavity 
work  your  experts  did  here  last  season.  Not  a  crack  in  the  cement 
or  a  si<,'n  of  i:ivin^'  way  at  the  sides  of  the  cavity  can  I  locate; 
the  tilling'  is  just  as  conipact  as  the  day  your  men  placed  it  there. 

The  reputation  of  your  conuany,  I  feel  >ure,  is  perfectly  safe 
m  the  hands  of  such  mm  a-'  were  sent  here  last  year  to  treat  the 
trees,  and  those  working'  on  the  estate  at  the  time  of  writin;.'. 

My  best  wishes  no  with  them  and  your   company. 

Sincerely  yours.

bers  until  the  last  day  of  the  conven- 
tion, when  the  new  oflScers  were  in- 
stalled. After  discussion  by  John  Day- 
ton, Eobert  Pyle  and  William  Pitkin, 
the  matter  was  allowed  to  rest  until  the 
usual  reports  were  in. 

Charles  H.  Perkins,  Jr.,  presented  the 
report  of  the  legislative  committee, 
comprising  the  platform  given  in  an- 
other column. 

George  C.  Marshall  reported  four  cases 
having  been  decided  by  the  arbitration 
committee. 

Thursday  Brings  Visitors. 

The  second  day  of  the  convention 
brought  two  speakers  outside  the  trade 
to  the  association.  Beuben  H.  Don- 
nelley, head  of  the  large  Chicago  print- 
ing house  and  retiring  president  of  the 
Associated  Advertising  Clubs  of  the 
World,  told  of  the  vigilance  work  in 
the  advertising  field  done  by  the  latter 
organization  in  a  way  that  won  the  ap- 
plause of  the  nurserymen. 

E.  H.  Stevens,  representing  the 
American  Railway  Express  Co.,  ex- 
plained the  problems  of  expressmen  and 
pointed  out  that  nurserymen  could  aid 
themselves  by  reducing  the  size  of  their 
packages,  reading  an  order  that  limited 
the  size  on  all  other  commodities  in  the 
eastern  and  central  districts  to  200 
pounds,  while  allowing  300  pounds  on 
nursery  stock.  Upon  his  suggestion  the 
association  adopted  a  resolution  pre- 
sented by  W.  H.  Wyman  that  boxes  or 
bales  of  nursery  stock  be  limited  to  ap- 
proximately 300  pounds  in  the  states 
east  of  the  Mississippi  and  north  of  the 
Ohio. 

Market  Development  Beport. 

Then  O.  Joe  Howard  offered  the  re- 
port of  the  market  development  com- 
mittee, presenting  legal  opinion  to  the 
effect  that  the  association's  trade-mark 
did  not  render  the  organization  liable 
in  legal  action.  The  committee  recom- 
mended the  incorporation  of  the  asso- 
ciation, with  shares  of  $25,  the  dues  to 
be  in  multiples  of  $25  and  each  share 
having  one  vote.  The  committee  also 
recommended  a  guaranty  fund,  so  that 
the  association  might  make  itself  finan- 
cially responsible  to  buyers  of  nursery 
stock  for  the  amount  of  the  purchase 
price  in  case  the  purchaser  was  dissatis- 
fied. It  advocated  the  expulsion  of 
members  found  guilty  of  unfair  or 
fraudulent  dealing  and  asked  an  appro- 
priation of  $35,000  for  the  coming 
year's  work. 

L.  W.  C.  Tuthill,  whose  agency  han- 
dled the  association's  advertising,  graph- 
ically presented  the  paid  publicity  of 
the  A.  A.  N.  during  the  last  year. 

The  members  then  proceeded  to  tie 
up  the  chair  in  such  a  tangle  of  parlia- 
mentary procedure,  in  action  and  dis- 
cussion regarding  the  market  develop- 
ment committee's  report,  that  the  dif- 
ficulty of  unraveling  it  proved  too  great. 
Some  wished  to  lay  parts  of  it  on  the

On  account  of  selling  our  Philadelphia   property  we  are  compelled  to  make 
room  at  our  Norwood   plant,  and  offer  some  of   our  specialties  at  less  than 

regular   prices.     They  are   Sure   Money   Makers   and   indispensable   for  fall  and  Christmas  trade. 
The  wide-awake  growers  will  surely  take  immediate  advantage  of  this  offer:

Illinois  and  John  S.  Kerr  spoke  of  that 
at  the  University  of  Texas. 

Government  Men  Talk. 

Thursday  afternoon,  June  24,  was 
given  over  to  addresses  by  representa- 
tives from  the  Department  of  Agricul- 
ture. Dr.  Fredericlc  V.  Coville,  show- 
ing stcreopticon  views,  told  of  the  ex- 
periments being  conducted  with  blue- 
berry plants,  which  had  demonstrated 
the  beneficial  effects  of  a  period  of 
chilling  on  stock,  producing  a  reaction 
in  the  plant  that  stimulated  subsequent 
growth.  Dr.  B.  T.  Galloway  told  of  the 
experiments  with  pear  tree  stock,  which 
have  advanced  farther  than  those  with 
other  fruit  stocks.  Prof.  L.  C.  Corbett 
spoke  regarding  the  work  to  be  done 
with  the  $20,000  secured  by  the  nursery- 
men through  the  passage  of  the  Gould 
bill.  He  asked,  in  conclusion,  that  the 
association  appoint  a  committee  to  act 
in  an  advisory  capacity  in  regard  to 
this  work.  This  request.  President  Moon 
pointed  out,  was  an  extraordinary  one 
from  the  Department  of  Agriculture. 
Motion  of  E.  H.  Smith  for  the  appoint- 
ment of  such  a  committee  was  promptly 
carried. 

Thomas  B.  Median,  as  chairman  of  the 
committee  on  relations  with  landscape 
architects,  presented  a  memorandum  of 
agreement  as  prepared  by  the  joint 
committee  of  the  A.  A.  N.  and  the 
American  Society  of  Landscape  Archi- 
tects, covering  "obligations  which  are 
normally  implied  by  the  placing  and 
acceptance  of  an  order  for  nursery  stock, 
in  the  absence  of  specific  stipulations  to 
some  other  effect,"  and  also  a  memoran- 
dum in  regard  to  payment  of  bills  for 
nursery  stock  ordered  by  landscape 
architects  on  account  of  clients.  Both 
drafts  were  adopted  by  vote  of  the  con- 
vention. 

Standardization. 

Opening  Friday  morning's  session, 
June  25,  Harlan  P.  Kelsey  presented  the 
report  of  the  committee  on  nomencla- 
ture, embodying  the  1920  prospectus  of 
the  oflBcial  catalogue  of  plant  names 
being  prepared  by  the  American  Joint 
Committee  on  Horticultural  Nomencla- 
ture. Copies  of  the  prospectus  were  dis- 
tributed to  members  of  the  association 
for   their   perusal.     J.    Horace    McFar-

land,  chairman  of  the  joint  committee, 
and  Dr.  Frederick  V.  Coville  also  spoke 
of  the  nomenclature  work.  George  C. 
Roeding  moved  a  vote  of  thanks,  which, 
upon  John  S.  Kerr's  seconding,  was 
heartily  given.  At  Mr.  Kelsey 's  recom- 
mendation a  motion  for  the  appoint- 
ment of  a  committee  on  the  standardiza- 
tion of  trade  practices  was  carried. 

Vigilance  Committee  Beports. 

An  executive  session  had  been  in- 
tended by  the  oflScers  for  the  considera- 
tion of  the  vigilance  committee's  report, 
but  a  strong  appeal  for  an  open  ses- 
sion by  J.  R.  Mayhew  won  the  approval 
of  the  members. 

Paul  C.  Lindley  then  read  the  com- 
mittee's report  and  its  recommenda- 
tions, which,  by  setting  a  more  definite 
rule  in  regard  to  expulsion,  took  an 
emphatic  stand  in  regard  to  members' 
dealings.  ' '  Only  trustworthy  men, ' '  de- 
clared Mr.  Lindley,  "can  produce  trust- 
worthy trees."  Advertisements  had  oc- 
cupied some  of  the  committee's  atten- 
tion and  recommendations  were  made 
for  a  more  rigid  surveillance  of  them  in 
future.  After  some  discussion  the  rec- 
ommendations were  referred  to  the  exec- 
utive committee.

At  this  time  the   recommendation  oi 
an  attorney  that  the  report  of  the  com 
mittee    on   policj-,   adopted   June,   1919. 
be   rescinded,   was   acted   upon.     When 
the  article  was  repealed,  J.  R.  Mayhew 
moved  the  appointment  of  a  committer  . 
to  draw  up  similar  resolutions  in  a  forn 
that  would  be  legal. 

The  adoption  of  the  executive  com 
mittee 's  recommendations,  including  the 
new  schedule  of  dues,  as  outlined  above 
drew  forth  much  debate.  Some  wer< 
of  the  opinion  that  the  contract  made 
with  the  market  development  committee 
a  year  ago  necessitated  adherence  to  th. 
schedule  of  dues  adopted  last  year 
Under  these  an  income  of  $50,000  har. 
been  expected.  The  new  dues  wili 
yield,  it  was  said,  between  $25,000  and 
$35,000,  so  that  the  market  development

$10,000  last  year,  amount  to  $15,000  to 
$20,000. 

W.  H.  Wyman  declared  the  moss- 
backs  among  the  nurserymen  had 
scraped  oflf  some  of  the  moss  at  last 
year's  convention  and  he  did  not  wish 
to  see  the  association  take  a  step  back- 
ward. Robert  Pyle  and  Theodore  Borst 
expressed  sentiments  equally  strong. 
But  arguments  by  John  S.  Kerr,  George 
C.  Roeding  and  M.  R.  Cashman  in  favor 
•of  harmony  in  the  association  and  sup- 
port of  the  oflScers'  recommendations 
won  the  day.  The  amendment  of  the 
constitution  carried,  93  to  6.  In  addi- 
tion to  changing  the  dues,  it  altered  the 
olau.se  regarding  those  who  may  be  ac- 
tive or  voting  members  by  the  addition 
of  the  words:  "Their  reputation  for 
trustworthy  dealing  must  be  maintained 
as  a  condition  of  membership." 

Closing  Business. 

In  flosing  tlie  convention,  tlio  asso- 
ci.Ttion  hurried  through  some  routine 
actions  before  electing  the  officers  and 
selecting  next  year's  meeting  place  as 
noted  above. 

A  telegram  was  read  from  Mrs.  Ruth 
Day,  president  of  the  Pacific  Coast 
Xur.serymen  "s  Association,  and  greet- 
ings ordered  sent  to  the  organization's 
convention  at  Portland  this  week. 

A  resolution  of  condolence  was  moved 
for  James  McHutchison,  of  New  York, 
wlio  has  been  ill  for  some  weeks.  Since 
some  nurserymen  are  also  florists,  it  was 
decided  to  "Say  It  with  Flowers." 

W.  N.  Wyman  presented  a  resolution 
urging  fair  and  generous  treatment  of 
the  railroads.

ment  of  a  committee  to  wait  on  the 
Secretary  of  Agriculture  in  the  inter- 
ests of  a  bureau  or  division  of  nursery 
service  as  a  permanent  part  of  govern- 
ment work. 

Robert  Pyle  moved  a  vote  of  thanks 
to  the  agile  and  helpful  Baby  Ramblers. 
He  also  spoke  of  and  in  behalf  of  mem- 
bership in  the  American  Rose  Society. 

John  Watson  called  attention  to  the 
work  of  the  American  Forestry  Asso- 
ciation in  promoting  memorial  tree 
planting  and  arbor  days. 

A  vote  of  thanks  was  rendered  A.  M. 
Augustine  for  good  work  on  the  part  of 
the  committee  on  arrangements,  the 
other  members  of  which  were  F.  W.  Von 
Oven,  Naperville,  111.,  and  Leonard  H. 
Vaughan,  Chicago. 

Exhibits. 

In  addition  to  the  exhibits  reported 
in  last  week's  issue  of  The  Review,  the 
Benton  Review  Shop,  Fowler,  Ind.,  had 
a  display  of  its  color  work,  and  B.  F. 
Conigisky,  Peoria,  111.,  showed  photo- 
graphs and  color  views  of  his  making. 

On  the  closing  day  of  the  convention 
two  vases  of  peony  blooms  from  Peterson 
Nursery,  Chicago,  occupied  a  table  in  a 
corner  of  the  convention  hall.  The 
association  rendered  a  vote  of  thanks  to 
the  firm  for  the  display. 

PLATFORM  ON  LEGISLATION. 


Association  Takes  Stand. 

The  contagion  of  political  conven- 
tions infected  that  of  the  nurserymen 
at  Chicago  and  at  the  Wednesday  after- 
noon session,  June  23,  a  platform  was 
presented  by  Charles  H.  Perkins,  chair- 
man of  the  legislative  committee,  the 
planks  of  which  embodied  the  associa- 
tion's stand  on  various  matters  in  re- 
gard to  which  it  has  come  into  contact 
with  governmental  bodies. 

The  platform  was  printed  in  an 
8-page  pamphlet  sent  out  by  President 
Moon  to  members  of  the  association  be- 
fore the  meeting.  The  preamble  was 
quoted  in  last  week's  issue  of  The  Re- 
view. Some  alterations  were  made  in 
the  various  articles,  and  the  legislative 
committee  withheld  from  consideration 
by  the  convention  the  three  articles  on 
Quarantine  37,  printed  as  Articles  X, 
XI  and  XII  originally. 

On  Quarantines. 

In  the  articles  on  quarantine,  the 
fourth  was  changed  by  the  addition  of 
the  original  parenthetic  paragraph  (b) 
as  Section  2,  and  by  complete  revision

mitted  by  Harlan  P.  Kelsey.     As  cor- 
rected the  articles  on  quarantine  read: 

Article   I. 
For   the   control   of   injurious   insect   pests   and 
plant   discnsei,    nurserymen    advocate   the    policy 
of   inspection    of   nursery    stock   and    plant   prod- 
ucts   by    competent    constituted    authority,    with 
certification    permitting   either   intrastate   or   in- 
terstate   shipment   when    found    free   of   infesta- 
tion. 

Article    II. 

ReRular    thorough    spraying    and    clean    tillage 
are   advocated   as   further   necessary   measures  in 
the  control  of  pests  or  diseases,  and  we  pledge 
ourselves  to  the  accomplishment  of   these  to  the 
extent   of  our  facilities. 

Article   III. 
That  nurserymen  view  with  alarm  the  employ- 
ment,   with    increasing   frequency,    of    the    quar- 
antine as  a  measure  for  the  control  of  pests  or 
disease   and   oppose  it   as   ineffectual   in  its   ac- 
complishment   and    disastrous    to    our    industry. 

Article  rV. 

Section    1.      That   when   inspection    and    other 
measures  for  pest  control   have   in   any   Instance 
been  ineflScient  and  an  emergency  arises  that  in 
the  opinion  of  authorities  requires  the  placement 
of   a   quarantine,    nurserymen   urge   that  no  such 
contemplated   quarantine   may   be   placed   until   a 
public  hearing  has  been  held  and  evidence  show- 
ing the  necessity  for  such  quarantine  produced. 

Section  2.     No  oflJcinI  or  officials  charged  with 
control   of  Insect   pests  or  disease   should   sit   as 
commissioners    at    any   such    hearings  or   be   em- 
powered    to    declare     quarantines.       But    rather 
should    the   commission   in    the   case   of   proposed 
federal    quarantines    be    composed    of    three    per- 
sons,   two   of    whom    shall    he    appointed    by    the 
Secretary  of  Agriculture   and  one  of  whom  shall 
be    a   secretary  of   agriculture   for   the   state   or

me  of  the  states  within  the  srea  that  is  pro- 
posed  to   be  quarantined.     In   the  case  of  state 
luarantines    such    bearings    might    be    presided 
wer  by  the  secretary  of  agriculture  of  the  com- 
monwealth  in  question. 

Article    V. 

That    whenever    the    federal    government    pro- 
poses   a    quarantine    the    commission    conductinp 
the  necessary  hearing,   preliminary  thereto,  shall 
Bit  for  the  purpose  of  hearing  evidence  and  tak- 
ng   testimony   at   some   convenient   place   within 
the  proposed   quarantine  area. 

Article   VI. 

That  quarantines   shall   be    for   no   longer   pe- 
riod  than   that   in   which  the  emergency  exists, 
rf  a  quarantine  be  in  force  for  a  year  or  more, 
in  the  petition  of  the  A,  A.   N.  or  other  respon- 
sible  organizations  or   persons  affected,    a   hesr- 
ng  shall  be  held  as  in  the  case  of  inaugurating 
t.    where  necessity  for  its  continuance  may  be 
Oiown.   with  equal  opportunity  to  testify  to  the 
pmergency  having  ceased.

tana,  Wyoming,  Utah,  New  Mexico  and 
Colorado,  the  following  planks  were  in- 
cluded: 

Article  VII. 

"That  freight  cars  be  fumigated  at  destina- 
tion and  If  no  facilities  are  aTailnble  for  fumi- 
gation at  small  stations,  tlien  the  car  shall  be 
returned  to  some  central  point  and  fumigated 
tliere." 

As  nurserymen  are  in  the  practice  of  shipping 
in  bulk  to  one  destination  and  tliere  reconsign- 
ing  car  with  partial  contents  to  anotlier  point, 
•eeuring  by  this  practice  lower  freight  rates, 
this  association  desires  a  fuller  proof  that  such 
fumigation  of  car  at  destination  is  necessary 
for  the  control  of  insect  pests  or  disease,  before 
It  can  be  expected  to  willingly  acquiesce  in  such 
a  measure. 

Article    VIII 

That  the  proposal  to  secure  a  bill  in  the  sev- 
eral states  represented  at  this  conference  to  re- 
quire that  the  expense  of  Inspection  be  paid  by 
either  consignor  or  consignee  of  a  shipment  of 
nursery  stock  Is  strongly  opposed  by  tlie  Ameri- 
can Association  of   Nurserymen. 

Article   IX. 

The  contemplated  effort  for  the  passage  of  a 
bin  requiring  inspection  at  a  central  depot  will 
place  such  handicaps  upon  the  nursery  business 
that  the  possibility  of  supplying  "Trustworthy 
Trpes  and  Shrubs"  will  be  entirely  beyond  the 
control  of  any  nurserymen,  and  we  oppose  the 
proposition  strenuously,  believing  it  would  bring 
disaster   upon    the    industry. 

Compensation  for  Stock  Destroyed. 

Omitting  the  articles  on  modification 
of  Quarantine  37,  the  convention  adopt- 
ed the  two  on  compensation  for  nursery 
stock  destroyed  and  the  rest  of  the 
planks.  Slight  change  added  farmers' 
crops  to  Article  XIII.  The  others  were 
adopted  as  introduced,  save  for  the 
omission  of  three  words  in  Article  XX. 
The  revised  form  appears  below: 

Article  XIII. 

That  laws  shall  be  sought,  providing  compen- 
sation to  farmers,  nurserymen,  orchardists,  tlm- 
WT-owners  and  others,  when  their  crops,  trees 
Jr  plants  of  value  are  condemned  to  destruction 
"y  officials,  or  denied  a  market,  in  an  effort  to 
arrest  the  spread  of  insect  pests  or  diseases.

trees  or  shrubs  of  different  species  or  varieties 
in  certain  ages  or  sizes  are  being  grown  in  any 
one  county,  state  or  group  of  states  are  felt 
by   nurserymen  to  be  of  Incalculable  value. 

Article  XVI. 
To  secure  the  valuable  knowledge  that  such 
crop  estimates  will  provide,  we  therefore  re- 
affirm our  action  of  one  year  ago  and  Instruct 
our  officers  to  continue  efforts  to  secure  an  ap- 
prop?^tion  from  Congress  that  will  enable  this 
sen-ice  to  be  undertaken  by  the  bureau  of  crop 
reports   of   the   Department   of   Agriculture. 

Article  XVII. 
Fnrtlier.  we  pledge  ourselves  to  make  such 
estimates  as  nearly  accurate  as  possible,  b.^ 
providing  promptly  and  voluntarily  the  informa- 
tion that  shall  be  asked  for  with  as  great  ao- 
cvrracy  as  is  possible,  and  that  we  will  also  urge 
on  nurserymen  not  members  of  the  "S80<-i''tion, 
their  compliance  with  the  request  of  the  gov- 
ernment when  it  shall  be  made,  in  order  that 
the  annual  census  of  trees  and  shrubs  in  the 
nurseries  of  the  United  States  may  when  avail- 
able be  of  dependable  assistance  to  the  nurserj 
industry. 

Article   XVIII. 

The  securement  of  an  appropriation  for  $20,- 
000  from  the  Siity-slxth  Congress  for  investi- 
gating in  codpetttion  with  states  or  privately 
5wned  nurseries,  methods  of  propagating  fn^t 
trees,  ornamental  and  other  plants,  the  study  of 
stocks  used  in  propagating  such  plants  and 
methods  of  growing  stocks,  for  the  Purpose  of 
providing  American  sources  of  stocks,  cuttings 
or  other  propagating  materials,  is  acknowledged 
It  is  felt  that  nurserymen  coSperating  witn  ine 
Department  of  Agriculture  can  now  secure  much 
needed  assistance  in  their  experimental  efforts 
to  grow  new  stock  or  that  which  was  not  here- 
tofore commonly  and  readily  grown. 

The  department  will,  however,  have  to  ask 
Congress  another  year  for  an  appropriation  to 
continue  this  work;  therefore,  be  it  resolved, 
that  the  association  shall  assist  the  department 
in  securing  an  appropriation,  by  joining  in  the 
appeal  to  Congress  for  necessary  financial  sup- 
port to  carry   this  service  on. 

Article  XIX. 
The  action  of  the  Southern  Association  of 
Nurservmen  in  endeavoring  to  secure  a  uniform 
law  for  the  south  Atlantic  group  of  states  and 
to  secure  a  modification  of  the  laws  now  exist- 
ing in  certain  states,  compelling  a  numbered 
tag  on  each  and  every  individual  order,  also  on 
each  individual  bale  or  box,  also  a  copy  of  each 
order  on  day  of  shipment,  is  Inflicting  double 
and  unnecessary  work,  especially  on  the  retail 
nurserymen.  The  American  Association  of  Nurs- 
erymen will  cooperate  in  assisting  to  secure 
these    modifications. 

Article    XX. 

There  has  been  observed  during  recent  years 
n  tendency  on  the  part  of  some  state  officials 
and  the  press,  to  discourage  by  publicity  as 
conspicuously  observed  in  the  St.  Louis  Globe- 
Democrat,  an  effort  to  encourage  the  planting 
of  fruit  trees  for  one's  domestic  use,  alleging 
that  such  small  plantations  are  apt  to  be  im- 
properly cared  for  or  even  neglected,  and  that 
thev  tend  to  encourage  the  spread  of  pests. 
That  they  yield  insufficiently  of  inferior  fruit 
and  in  consequence  fruit  should  only  be  grown 
by  those  engaged  commercially  in  its  production. 

We  believe  such  efforts  to  confine  the  plant- 
ing of  fruit  trees  to  commercial  interests  to  be 
undemocratic  in  its  denial  to  the  family  of  the 
luxury  of  luscious,  fresh  fruit,  produced  upon 
the    home    grounds.      Further,    It   is    our    belief

convention  in  1917,  pledging  Its  efforts  for  the 
securement  of  »  national  botanic  garden  at 
Washington,  D.  C.  or  for  a  chain  of  such  gar- 
dens throughout  the  country  for  the  promotion 
and  dissemination  of  horticultural  knowledge,  is 
reaffirmed  and  our  officers  instructed  to  bring 
the  association's  influence  promptly  to  bear  in 
the  action  now  pending  before  Congress  for  the 
establishment  of  one  such  national  botanic  gar-

There  would  appear  to  be  no  more  reason  for 
a  government  entering  upon  the  production  of 
nursery  stock  for  its  own  consumption  or  for 
the  encouragement  of  planting  for  forestation 
or  other  purposes  by  individuals  or  corporations, 
than  for  it  to  produce  other  commodities  for  its 
needs  or  to  disseminate  them  In  order  to  pro- 
mote the  use  of  the  commodity. 

Adoption  Almost  Unanimous. 

Only  one  dissenting  voice  was  heard 
in  the  convention.  After  E.  M.  Sher- 
man had  moved  its  adoption  and  J.  A. 
Young  seconded  it,  George  C.  Reed- 
ing took  the  floor  to  protest  that  such 
action  would  antagonize  governmental 
authorities  instead  of,  as  he  advocated,

Greeahouse  Heating 

Subscribers  are  invited  to  write  the 
Editor  of  this  Department  with  regard  to 
any  details  of  greenhouse  heating  that 
are  not  understood.  "When  information  is 
desired  regarding  the  capacity  of  boilers, 
or  the  amount  of  radiation  required  for 
a  greenhouse,  the  needed  temperatures 
should  be  stated  in  the  inquiry,  as  well 
as  the  amount  of  glass  in  the  side  walls, 
and  the  dimensions  and  general  arrange- 
ment of  the  greenhouses.  It  is  often  help- 
ful, also,  to  have  a  sketch  showing  the 
location  of  the  houses. 


USE  OVERHEAD  FLOWS. 

I  built  a  greenhouse,  19x52  feet,  last 
fall.  There  is  eighteen  inches  of  glass 
in  the  side  walls.  The  boiler  room  is 
on  the  north  side.  I  have  a  Capitol 
Winchester  boiler,  which  has  a  2-foot 
base  and  is  set  two  feet  below  the  level 
of  the  greenhouse  floor.  The  pipe  out 
of  the  boiler  is  4-inch  and  there  are 
four  flows  of  3-inch  pipe  and  eight  re- 
turns of  2-inch  pipe.  I  cannot  keep 
a  temperature  of  60  degrees  when  it  is 
zero  outside.  I  can  only  keep  about  40 
degrees  of  heat  with  hard  firing.  What 
can  I  do  to  help  it?      N.  Mc. — Kan. 


So  far  as  the  amount  of  radiation  is 
concerned,  no  change  is  needed,  as  the 
amount  used  should  maintain  60  degrees 
when  it  is  15  degrees  below  zero  with- 
out pushing  the  fire.  The  location  and 
arrangement  of  the  pipes  are  not  given, 
but  if  the  flow  pipes  are  at  or  above  the 
level  of  the  plates  and  have  a  slight 
downhill  grade  and  if  the  returns  are  at 
least  one  foot  above  the  level  of  the 
grate,  satisfactory  results  should  be  ex- 
pected. The  best  results  will  be  ob- 
tained with  overhead  flow  pipes  and 
with  the  returns  well  above  the  top  of 
the  boiler.  If  it  is  not  possible  to 
lower  the  boiler,  raise  the  flow  pipes 
to  the  level  of  the  purlins,  and  also 
carry  the  returns  as  high  as  possible, 
running  both  with  a  fall  of  one  inch  in 
fifteen  feet.  The  use  of  a  mercury  cir- 
culator would  also  be  helpful. 


MAINTAINING  60  DEGREES. 

I  have  four  greenhouses,  25x100  feet, 
built  in  line.  The  gutters  are  seven 
feet  from  the  ground.  If  I  put  three 
benches,  6x97  feet,  in  each  house,  how 
many  2-inch  pipes  arc  necessary  under 
the  benches  to  maintain  a  heat  of  60 
and  65  degrees  when  the  temperature 
is  zero  outside?  What  size  of  main  and 
what  size  of  flows  are  necessary?  I 
have  an  International  Empress  hot 
water  boiler,  the  capacity  of  which  is 
supposed  to  be  7,900  square  feet  of  ra- 
diation. The  pipes  at  the  farther  end 
are  about  one  foot  higher  than  those 
near  the  boiler.  M.  J. — O. 


If  there  is  glass  in  the  side  walls,  I 
should  suggest  that  one  2%-inch  flow  be 
placed  upon  each  side  wall  plate,  that 
2-inch  returns  be  connected  with  these 
at  the  farther  end  of  the  house  and  that 
they  run  back  to  the  boiler  a  foot  or 
two  below  the  flow  pipe. 

For  the  coils  under  the  benches,  use 
one  2%-inch  flow  pipe  under  the  ridge 
and  one  under  each  purlin.  Each  of  the 
under-bench  coils  will  require  two  2- 
inch  returns. 

For   the   center   houses,   and  for   the

Expressions  from  Men  Who  Know  Boilers 


Get  tke  Kneichdl  Fint 


Several  years  ago  Mr. 


corresponded  with  us  In  regard 


to  the  Kroeschell  Hot  Water  Boiler,  but  was  persuaded  to  Install 
two  sectional  cast  Iron  boilers  which  were  claimed  to  be  superior 
to  the  Kroeschell 

In  the  meantime  we  placed  a  number  of  Kroeschell  Boilers  In 

the   Immediate   vicinity   of  Mr. and   he   could   not   help 

but  notice  their  great  efficiency,  and  last  year,  while  at  the  con- 
vention, he  placed  his  order  for  his  first  Kroeschell.  The  fol- 
lowing letter  speaks  for  Itself: 

"We  like  the  Kroeschell  Boiler  very  much.  It  gtvea  entire 
satisfaction,  and  it  Is  so  easy  to  Are.  I  will  trade  yon  the  two 
cast  iron  sectional  boilers  for  another  lilie  the  Kroeschell  I  have." 


[Signed]  Mr. 


-,  Ohio. 


No  More  Cast  Iron  Boilers 

I  have  used  several  different  makes 
of  boilers,  but  none  I  like  as  well 
as  yours. 

The  Kroeschell  is  easier  to  fire, 
takes  less  coal  and  water  circulates 
quicker  than  any  other  boiler. 

I  have  used  two  different  ma''es 
of  sectional  boilers  —  no  more  cast 
iron  boilers  for  us. 

[Signed]  Mr. .  Mich. 


Kroeschell  Replaces  Cast  Iron 

The  Kroeschell  has  replaced  three 
cast  iron  sectional  boilers,  and  it  cer- 
tainly has  given  entire  satisfaction. 

It  only  takes  a  few  words  to  ex- 
press the  good  quality  of  your  boilers 
and  they  are  as  follows:  "Of  all  firms 
handling  boilers  and  advertising 
them  truthfully,  the  party  buying  a 
boiler  would  have  to  get  'he  Kroe- 
schell, as  you  sre  certainly  advertis- 
ing nothing  but  facts."

other  houses  if  there  is  no  glass  in  the 
side  walls,  use  three  3-inch  flow  pipes  in 
each  house  and  connect  each  of  these 
flow  pipes  with  three  2-inch  returns  lo- 
cated under  the  benches. 

Only  1,000  square  feet  of  radiation 
will  be  required  in  each  of  the  four 
houses  and  a  heater  rated  for  from  4,000 
to  6,000  square  feet  should  be  able  to 
handle  the  range.  The  extra  amount  of 
radiation  which  the  boiler  in  question 
might  supply  would  not  be  objection- 
able and  it  might  be  used  to  heat  one 
or  two  additional  houses  if  desired. 


AIR  JET  FOE  OIL  HEATING. 

In  a  recent  article  on  heating  with 
oil  it  was  stated  that  it  would  be  nec- 
essary to  provide  either  a  steam  or  a 
compressed  air  jet  for  spraying  the 
oil  into  the  fire  box.  How  much  pres- 
sure will  be  needed  for  the  spray?  I 
carry  ten  pounds  pressure  on  my  water 
system  and  could  do  the  same  on  an  oil 
system  if  that  pressure  is  enough. 

J.  S.  P.— Mass. 


The  object  of  the  steam  or  compressed 
air  jet  is  to  spray  the  oil  into  the  fire 
pot.  The  pressure  needed  will  depend 
upon  the  kind  of  burner  and  the  size  of 
the  fire  pot.  While  a  10-pound  steam 
or  air  pressure  would  answer  for  a  small 
boiler,  forty  pounds  would  be  desirable 
for  a  large  boiler. 

It  might  be  possible  to  devise  a  jet 
in  which  water  under  pressure  could 
be  used  to  produce  the  spray,  but  it 
would  be  necessary  to  use  a  high  pres- 
sure and  water  under  pressure  in  a  heat- 
ing system    would   not   answer,   as   the

pressure  would  need  to  be  uniform  and 
when  the  jet  is  turned  on  the  pressure 
would  quickly  drop.  If  possible  at  all, 
a  high-pressure  water  system  and  a 
special  burner  would  be  required  and, 
when  steam  is  not  available,  compressed 
air,  furnished  by  electric  power,  should 
be  used.

WASHINaTON,  D.  0. 


The  Market. 

■  Out-of-town  orders  kept  the  florists 
unusually  busy  last  week,  while  local 
business  was  a  little  slower,  with  the 
exception  of  weddings  and  commence- 
ments. The  supply  of  sweet  peas  was 
much  better.  Peonies  are  about  gone. 
The  rose  and  carnation  supply  was  fair 
and  a  much  larger  demand  for  roses  was 
noticed  during  the  latter  part  of  the 
week.  Prices  are  about  normal  for  this 
time  of  the  year.  Many  of  the  local 
growers  are  making  many  improvements 
and  changes  in  their  houses  and  are  get- 
ting ready  for  their  chrysanthemum 
crops. 

Various  Notes. 

Can  the  "flower  demons"  of  Wash- 
ington, D.  C,  play  ball?  Just  ask 
Arthur  Shaffer,  manager  of  the  local 
team,  and  he  will  tell  you  about  their 
work  at  Kensington,  Md.,  Sunday,  June 
27,  where  they  played  David  Bissett's 
team,  which  is  one  of  the  strongest 
teams  they  have  faced  this  year.  With 
Sam  Maston  on  the  mound  and -Arthur 
Shaffer  taking  them  off  the  bat,  the 
local  boys  walked  away  with  the  game 
at  a  score  of  8  to  3.  The  teams  were 
evenly  matched  and  the  game  was  well 
played  throughout.  Maston  had  his 
famous  snake  ball  working  well. 

Plans  for  the  annual  meeting,  which 
will  be  held  at  Great  Falls,  are  nearing 
completion.  This  is  expected  to  be  one 
of  the  largest  affairs  of  the  kind  ever 
given  by  the  Washington  Florists'  Club.

SPRINGFIELD,  ILL. 


The  Market. 

A  number  of  weddings  and  other  so- 
cial affairs  have  kept  the  demand  equal 
to  the  supply.  All  stock  is  used  up 
daily.  The  bedding  plants  are  about 
cleaned  up,  the  season  being  much  bet- 
ter than  usual.  Extra  good  gladioli  are 
holding  their  own  on  the  market.

The  Market. 

June  weddings  continue  to  make 
much  business  for  the  Newark  trade 
and  during  the  last  ten  days  there  has 
been  much  graduation  work.  Flowers 
are  now  abundant  and  prices  are  about 
normal  for  this  time  of  the  year.

The  Market. 

The  demand  for  stock  last  week  was 
heavy,  especially  for  roses  and  sweet 
peas  for  wedding  orders.  Many  orders 
remained  unfilled,  as  special  colors  and 
quality  were  demanded  and  the  supply 
was  off.  The  hot  weather  early  in  the 
month  spoiled  the  prospects  for  sweet 
peas  during  June  and  they  were 
missed.  Koses,  likewise,  were  in  heavy 
demand,  with  the  supply  fair.  White 
roses  were  practically  out.  Ophelia, 
Eussell  and  Columbia  took  care  of  most 
orders.  Carnations  were  plentiful,  but 
quality  is  on  the  wane.  Good  shipping 
stock  is  scarce.  Outdoor  stock  is  ar- 
riving. Some  nice  larkspurs,  gypso- 
phila  and  snapdragons  are  helping  out. 
Peonies  are  about  gone. 

Various  Notes. 

The  wholesale  houses  are  closed  on 
Sundays  for  the  summer  season.  Most 
of  the  downtown  retailers  are  also 
closed  on  Sundays  now. 

The  C.  C.  Pollworth  Co.  has  purchased 
the  corner  property  occupied  by  it  for 
several  years.  It  is  a  4-story  building, 
centrally  located.  Many  improvements 
will  be  made  to  meet  the  demands  of 
the  firm's  business.  P. 


DENVER,  COLO. 


The  Market. 

Business  was  fair  last  week,  with 
almost  everything  in  good  supply.  Car- 
nations are  somewhat  smaller.  Roses 
are  still  of  good  quality  and  the  large 
supply  is  being  handled  nicely  at  good 
prices.     Peonies  are  about  gone  now. 

Various  Notes. 

The  Alpha  Floral  Co.  had  a  number 
of  wedding  orders  last  week. 

Vern  Christian  is  erecting  a  new 
range  of  three  houses,  each  21x120  feet, 
to  be  devoted  principally  to  carnations.

Better  Than  Putty 


Federal  Greenhouse  Cements  are  proving 
so  wonderfully  efficient  because  they  pos- 
sess to  a,  superlative  degree  just  those 
essentials  which  provide  the  greatest 
service  to  the  greenhouse  owner. 

A  greenhouse  cement,  first  of  all,  must 
be  absolutely  watertight  and  airtight;  it 
must  work  readily  with  glass  and  metal 
or  wood,  adhering  tenaciously  under  all 
weather  conditions;  it  must  possess 
enough  elasticity  to  take  up  all  strains, 
due  to  windstorms,  etc.,  as  well  as  the 
normal  contraction  and  expansion  of  the 
glass,  wood  or  metal;  it  must  possess 
resistance  against  sudden  blows,  such  as 
hailstones;  it  must,  above  all,  possess 
endurance,  that  quality  which  makes  it 
last  over  a  period  of  years  without  de- 
terioration. 

Federal  Greenhouse  Cements  perform 
these  functions,  as  well  as'  many  others, 
better  than  any  materials  you  have  ever 
used;  jf  you  once  try  them  you  will  never 
be  satisfied  with  any  other  brand. 

_We  recommend  the  black  as  most  effi- 
cient and,  by  the  way,  90%  of  the  green- 
house owners  use  our  Federal  Greenhouse 
Cement  No.  2,  which  is  the  black  in  a 
consistency  suitable  for  use  in  the  putty 
bulb. 


The  reason  we  recommend  the  black  is 
because  it  is  possible  for  us  to  use  it  as 
the  primary  base  to  certain  pitches  and 
gums,  which  possess  marked  elasticity  and 
waterproofing  qualities.  Combining  these 
gums  and  pitches,  as  we  do,  with  suitable 
oils  and  reducing  agents,  and  with  high- 
grade  asbestos  fiber,  produces  cements 
which  have  an  inherent  strength  abso- 
lutely defying  weather  and  other  condi- 
tions. 

In  making  colored  and  white  cements, 
which  are  more  expensive  than  the  blacks, 
it  is  necessary  to  use  as  pigments  such 
materials  as  white  lead,  zinc,  lithopone, 
barytes  and  similar  materials.  These  pig- 
ments in  themselves  possess  no  water- 
proofing or  other  ^value  except  as  metal 
and  wood  protectives.  Cemetjts  made 
from  them  depend  for  their  efficiency  as 
greenhouse  cements  solely  on  the  oils  and 
other  materials  combined  with  them.  Now, 
the  oils  which  we  use,  together  with  as- 
bestos fiber,  which  is  a  part  of  every  one 
of  our  cements,  enable  us  to  make  white 
and  colored  cements  which  are  far  better 
than  the  putties  and  other  materials 
which  you  have  hitherto  used,  and  a  good 
many  of  the  greenhouse  owners  use  them 


— and  Why  ? 

in   preference  to  the  black  cement.     We, 
however,  urge  you  to  use  the  black. 

For  repairing  broken  lights,  no  matter 
how  badly  they  may  be  broken,  we  recom- 
mend our  black  paste  Federal  Elastic 
Cement.  For  roofing  work  and  for  cover- 
ing the  brick  work  of  boiler  settings  we 
also  recommend  the  paste  consistency. 
In  fact,  the  paste  consistency  is  most  ad- 
visable except  where  a  thinner  material 
is  required  in  order  to  do  work  quickly 
and  effectively. 

Federal  Greenhouse  Cements  are  sold 
at  very  reasonable  prices.  Their  great 
success  has  brought  numerous  imitations 
on    the   market. 

Now  is  the  time  to  start  using  Federal 
Greenhouse  Cements.  Glass  is  high  and 
every  other  essential  has  risen  to  a  de- 
gree making  economies  and  conservation 
not  only  desirable  but  necessary.  The 
use  of  Federal  Greenhouse  Cements  will 
prove  a  step  in  the  right  direction  and 
in  a  short  time  you  will  express  your 
approval,  as  so  many  hundreds  of  others 
have  done.

SEATTLE  NOTES. 

[Contirmeil  from  page  106.] 

the  month,  as  is  usually  the  case,  there 
would  have  been  considerable  shipping 
trade  to  figure  on  here. 

Herman  Warendorflf,  of  New  York, 
was  a  visitor  last  week.  He  is  on  an 
extended  tour  of  the  country.  Another 
visitor  recently  was  Mr.  Brown,  Sr.,  of 
Brown  Bros.  Co.,  Vancouver,  B.  C.  He 
is  on  his  way  to  Europe  on  a  buying  trip 
and  will  visit  the  growers  in  the  differ- 
ent countries.  He  sailed  from  New 
York  June  26. 

The  Hollywood  Gardens  have  been 
showing  some  fine  Belladonna  larkspurs, 
grown  in  the  open.  These  are  of  a 
beautiful  shade  of  blue  and  are  used  in 
tall  baskets  effectively.  Nelrose  snap- 
dragon of  the  lighter  pink  shades  is  also 
being  cut  freely  and  some  fine  bach- 
elor's buttons  are  arriving.  This  firm 
reports  a  light  supply  of  orchids  and 
roses,  but  is  getting  enough  stock  to 
fill  all  needs. 

Ray  Guyer,  of  Rosaia  Bros.,  was  in 
Portland  for  the  Shriners'  convention 
and  was  the  guest  of  Tom  Luke,  at  Max 
Smith's.  P.  F.  Rosaia  has  left  on  a 
business  trip  to  California  and  H.  Haw- 
kins is  in  the  south  for  a  short  vaca- 
tion. 

E.  W.  Keeling,  formerly  of  Butte, 
Mont.,  is  foreman  of  the  greenhouses 
for  the  Thomas  Floral  Co.  This  firm 
handled  the  decorations  at  the  Univer- 
sity of  Washington  gymnasium  for  the 
graduation  and  also  the  table  and  ball- 
room decorations  for  the  annual  ball 
of  the  Queen  City  Yacht  Club. 

Among  the  new  roses  promised  at  the 
rose  show  are  Variegated  Sport,  devel- 
oped from  the  Madame  Edouard  Her- 
riot;  Mrs.  Hugh  Dickson,  probably  the 
deepest  yellow  yet  shown  in  the  Dick- 
son family,  and  Miss  Lolita  Armour,  a 
copper  and  shrimp  pink  shaded  bloom, 
with  a  chrome  yellow  base. 

Fred  Winters,  Bellevue  grower,  has 
been  showing  some  fine  sweet  peas  and 
started  delivery  of  his  outdoor  stock 
the  latter  part  of  last  week. 

Fred  Gust,  lately  with  the  Butte 
Floral  Co.,  Butte,  Mont.,  and  formerly 
with  Rosaia  Bros,  here,  next  week  will 
assume  the  position  of  northwestern 
representative  for  the  McCallum  Co.,  of 
Pittsburgh.  He  will  travel  out  of  Seat- 
tle and  expects  to  open  his  office  about 
the  first  of  the  month. 

The  Woodlawn  Flower  Shop  is  allow- 
ing its  employees  a  half-day  off  once  a 
week  for  the  months  of  June,  July, 
August  and  September,  with  a  full  crew 
on  hand  for  Saturday.  A  number  of 
table  decorations  have  been  handled 
lately  and  an  especially  large  standing 
wreath  of  white  carnations,  Columbia 
roses  and  orchids  for  the  funeral  of  a

Send  Today  for  This  Book 
It  May  Be  the  Turning  Point  in  Your  Business 


Here's  a  book  about  WATER. 

Tells  you  how  you  can  turn  plain,  ordinary  water 
into  solid,  sure  enough  bank  deposits. 
Shows  how  hundreds  of  florists  are  doing  it. 

Water  is  the  very  life-blood  of  your  business— 
under  glass  and  outside. 

But  have  you  ever  sat  down  and  figured  up  what 

it  costs  you  to  water  inside? 

And  what  it  costs  you  not  to  water  outside? 

Watering  outside  crops  -flowers  for  cutting,  car- 
nation plants,  propagating  stoclt,  and  the  like- 
often  douhleM  the  results  obtained. 
Hundreds  of  florists,  many  of  whom  you  know, 
have  testified  as  to  that. 

Watering  inside  crops  —  carnations,  bedding 
plants,  even  roses  has  proved  so  successful  that 
there  are  now  many  growers  using  Skinner  System 
under  glass,  who  say  they  would  no  more  go  Ixick 
to  slow,  high-costing  hose-holding,  than  they 
would  to  healing  their  houses  with  brick  flues. 

Even  if  the  Skinner  System  is  used  in  tlie  houses 
only  half  the  year,  it  will  pay  for  itself  many 
times  over.    Surely,  then,  you  should  know  just 


what  the  Skinner  System  is,  and  what  it  is  doing 
to  make  bigger  profits  for  florists,  big  and  little. 

Our  catalogue,  "RAIN,  for  the  Asking,"  tells  all 
about  it  and  what  your  brother  florists  say  about  it. 
Will  gladly  send  you  a  copy. 

Skinner  System  "READY  TO  USE"  Lines 

No  elaborate  outfit  is  needed  for  you  to  give  Skin- 
ner System  Rain  a  thorough,  practical  tryout. 
In  thirty  minutes  one  of  our  portable  lines  can  be 
suspended  from  your  greenhouse  sash-bars,  or 
supported  on  low  wooden  posts  in  your  carnation 
or  cut  flower  field  outdoors.  This  will  prove  for 
itself  how  much  money  it  can  save  and  make  for 
you. 

Skinner  System  Service 

Our  system  has  been  used  on  so  many  crops, 
indoors  and  out,  that  no  matter  what  you  grow, 
we  can  tell  you  just  how  the  Skinner  System  has 
worked  with  it,  and  refer  you  to  someone  who  is 
gi-owing  that  particular  thing  under  the  Skinner

A    CHOICE    STRAIN    OF 

Cyclamen  seed,  will  create  the  greatest 
pleasure  for  the  grower,  when  they  make  that 
beautiful  show  of  large  well  colored,  long  heavy 
■temmed  flowers,  standing  erect  above  such 
•ilvery  lined  foliage  as  our  choice  strain  will 
produce  and  is  the  only  way  to  avoid  disap- 
pointments,   when   they  come  to   bloom. 

We  have  that  strain  of  which  I  am  sure 
there  Is  no  better,  and  can  not  be  surpassed, 
at  least  that  is  the  conviction  of  our  many 
customers. 

Scarcity  of  such  extra  good  seed,  will  put 
price  much  higher  the  coming  season,  for  early 
sowing,  purchase  now  so  to  have  it  on  band. 

The  following  colors  are  now  available: 
Christmas  Red,  Defiance,  dark  blood  and  bright 
red,  dark  and  light  salmon,  $2.00  per  100,  $18.00 
per  1000.  Our  cultural  directions  go  with  all 
orders.  In  them  you  will  find  a  life-time  ex- 
perience.   Cash  please.

FOLEY  GREENHOUSES 


Construction — 

In  detail  as  in  the  big  things,  Foley  construction  leads. 

The  little  improvements  that  we  devise  for  every  part  of  our  houses,  make  them  last  better  with 
less  attention. 

Our  material  is  manufactured  with  the  greatest  degree  of  accuracy,  and  on  this  account  the  erection 
is  simple  and  rapid.

Jui.Y  1,  1920 


This  is  an  interior  of 
15.  G.  Willie's  bit;  '2 
foot  house  at  PoukIi- 
keepsie,  K.  V. 

Note  I  lie  trisscroiis 
bracing;  also  the 
braces  Koin>j  from 
Kable  toViiiKeatiil  from 
«able  to  the  first  col- 
umn and  so  on  into  a 
concrete  footing  in  the 
ground. 


^ 


Note  the  sturdy  Rable 
rafters  with  a  ^able 
purlin  at  the  topof  the 
same  size.  Observe 
that  the  ridge  brace 
is  secured  directly  to 
the  same  purlin. 

See  the  strength  and 
freauency  of  those  in- 
termediate angle  iron 
purlins.

Most  Gables  Cause  Most  Glass  Breakage 


When  the  wind  strikes  the  roof  full  broad 
side,  its  force  isgreutly  lessened  by  sliding 
up  the  skint  and  oiY  into  space  on  the  other 
side. 

Rut  with  gables  it's  ditl'erent. 

The  full  force  of  the  full  wind  strikes 
them  at  times,  full  on.  Thereisno  slidingolV. 

Ifs  just  like  one  huge  sledge  hammer  blow. 

Unless  gables  are  rightly  framed  and 
then  interframed  with  the  main  frame  of 
the  house— those  terrific  blow.s  rack  the 
entire  frame. 

Such    constant    racking,   gradually    but 
surely  loosens  the  roof  glass. 
■ti"Poohl    Poohl"."    you    say,   ''Hit.-hings 
brace  their  gables  needlessly."" 

To  which  we  answer  that  if  doing  what 
you  think  is  needless,  prevents  needless 
glass  loosening  and  slip|)ing.  then  wt- have 


a  notion  that  we  better  keep  right  on  doing 
that  needless  thing. 

Hut  to  get  back  to  basic  framing  facts, 
we  frame  our  gables  and  roofs  so  that  all 
strains  are.  so  far  as  possible,  equally  dis- 
tributed over  the  entire  framework. 

In  comparison,  Hitchings  framing  is 
(luite  like  a  wheel,  no  one  spoke  of  which 
bears  the  load. 

The  strain  and  the  load  weight  are  both 
carried  by  the  spokes  to  the  rim  and  tire, 
which  in  turn  distribute  it  back  again  to 
the  spokes. 

After  all  is  said  and  done  it,  therefore, 
figures  down  to  whether  the  extra  gable 
bracing  we  use  is  better  than  having 
loo.-~ened  glass. 

You  know  we  go  anywhere  for  business. 
Or  to  talk  business.

—you  do  not  need 

— You  can  see  with  your 
naked  eye  that  this  is  the 
dawn  of  a  golden  age  for 
the  growers  who  grow 
under  glass — no  matter 
what  you  grow.    And 

— You  can  see  with  even 

half  an  eye  that  the  AGMCO  is 
the  best  for  YOU,  considered  from 
every  angle.    Best  because  — 

— It  is  designed  right — designed  pursuant  to  the 

laws  of  stress  and  strain  —  designed  to  give  the  maximum 
degree  of  strength  necessary,  combined  with  the  maximum 
degree  of  light  possible. 

— It  embodies  many  practical  improvements  in  those 

things  that,  taken  together,  go  to  the  making  of  a  greenhouse. 

The  strength  is  the  result,  not  of  heavy  trusses,  but 

of  scientific  bracing.  The  lightness  is  a  result,  not  of  a  weakened 
construction,  but  of  a  higher  quality  and  superior  design  in  the 
members  used,  which  allows  of  much  wider  spacing— twelve  16- 
inch  spaces  between  braces. 

By  an  arrangement  peculiar  to  the  AGMCO,  you  can  grow  in 
each  house  16/^  per  cent  more  plants  than  in  another  type  of 
manufacture. 

The  AGMCO  Company  maintains  an  Inspection  Service.    It  is  not 

satisfied  with  your  acceptance  of  a  house;  it  requires  a  rigid  inspection 
from  time  to  time  to  satisfy  ITSELF  that  EVERYTHING  is  shipshape. 

Just  a  letter  from  you  will  start  the  wheels  of  your  success  turning. 

May  we  have  it?

Hot  Weather  and  Boilers 


TO  the  average  person  it 
seems  almost  foolish  to 
talk  about  boilers  at  this 
time  of  the  year,  but  to  the 
greenhouse  man,  who  will  have 
to  see  to  the  heating  of  his 
greenhouses  next  winter,  it  is 
a  most  opportune  time. 

You  have  known  for  years  that 

we   are    greenhouse    heating 

experts,  but  you  will  probably 

not  realize  that  this  year  it  will  be  necessary  to  get  started 

installing  or  repairing  your  heating  system  earlier  than 

usual.    This  is  due  to  the  extreme  shortage  of  heating 

materials  of  all  kinds. 

Better  get  your  orders  in  now  while  our  stock  is  in  good  shape. 
Everything  from  boilers  to  pet  cocks  carried  in  stock. 
Elaborate  vacuum  heating  systems  or  simple  hot  water  jobs.

Gable  Gambles 
Their  Prevention 


^'ou  ami  I  have  read  and  heard  a 
lot  of  Ihiiijis  about  tiables 

From  some  ol'  the  thiiifisiit'sfevi- 
dent  there  is  a  lot  of  gamble?!" 
yal)les. 

And  tliere  is. 

Kver  seen  a  house  weave? 

Of  eourse  you  haven't. 

Ikit  tlie.v  do. 

That  is  to  say,  some  do. 

Tliose    that    do     j.'enerally     have 

i.'amblinf.'  yahles. 

The  builder  took  a  eliaiiee  of  tlieir 

IwinLT  strong  enouyli. 

And  tlie  owner  is  fooled. 

Fooled  into  thinking.'  that  l)eeause 

the  wible  don't  actually  l)lo\v  in. 

or  belly  in  and  out.  that  it  i>a  tiocd 

enou^'h  t-'able  for  liini. 

Sueh    fiables    make    such    houses 

weave. 

Vou  can't  see  the  weaving  Ity  just 

Hut  when  you  look  at  the  loosened 

are  lookint^  at  what  tlie  weaving 


Weak  gables    weaken    the  entire 
house . 

Their  lack  of  rigidity  gives  a  give 
to  the  entire  house  when  a  direct 
wind  thrust  comes  full  force 
against  the  direct  gable  surface. 
Every  give  is  a  strain  against  the 
entire  length  of  the  frame. 
When  the  give  stops,  the  frame 
generally  goes  back  into  place 
again. 

It's  this  weaving  back  and  forth 

that  loosens  tlie  glass,  a  little  at  a 

time,   until  first  thing  you  know 

it's  slipping. 

You  know  the  rest. 

We    positively   refuse   to    gamble 

with  gables. 


The  (table  posts  are  flat  bar  steel  like  the  roof  rafters, 

The  (table  purlins  are  steel  anjtles. 

The  purlins  are  bolted  to  the  posts  by  double  angle 

plates. 
DOUBLE,  mind  you.    Not  sin(fk-. 
TWU  bolts  are  used  on  the  purlins. 
Two,  mind  you.    Not  one. 
Each  gable  bar  is  screwed  to  each  purlin. 


looking  at  the  house, 
glass,  you  know  you 
cau.-ed. 


We  put  enough  steel  into  them  to 
insure  rigidity. 

Framed  the  way  we  frame  tiiem, 
no  heavy  prop-bracings  are  neces- 
sary. 
They  are  clean  cut  and  free,   but 

they  >ure  do  stand  the  winds  pounding. 

When  you  are  ready  to  talk  buikling— say  wlien  and 

wiiere  and  we'll  be  there.

Gable  Gaitibles 
Prevention 


You  and  I  have  read  and  heard  a 
lot  of  things  about  gables 

From  some  of  the  thingslit'sEevi- 
dent  there  is  a  lot  of  gamble  Jin 
gables.

Ever-  seen  a  hpuse  weave? 
Of  course  you  haven't. 
But  they  do.  •    , 
That  is  to  say,  some  do. 

Those   that   do    generally  .  have 

gambling  gables. 

The  builder  took  a  chance  of  their 

being  strong  enough. 

And  the  owner  is  fooled. 

Fooled  into  thinking  that  because 

the  gable  don't  actually  blow  in, 

or  belly  in  and  out,  that  it  is  a  good 

enough  gable  for  him. 


Weak  gables  weaken'  the  entire 
house. 

Their  lack  of  rigidity  gives  a  give 
to  the  entire  house -when  a  direct 
wind  thrust  comes  ftill  force 
against  the  direct  gatde  surface.

It's  this  weaving  back  and  f^rth

SIMPLE  SYSTEM 

OF  ACCOUNTING 

To  make  easy  the  adoption  of  such  bookkeeping  as  will  strengthen  the 
financial  standing  of  small  merchants,  who  frequently  consider  account  hooks 
too  much  bother,  the  National  Association  of  Credit  Men  has  prepared  the 
simple  accounting  system  presented  below,  quite  suitable  for  florists. 


OST  failures  and  bankrupt- 
cies are  due  to  a  lack  of 
information  as  to  how  a 
business  is  prospering  or 
suffering.  A  simple  book- 
keeping system  would  sup- 
ply the  necessary  informa- 
tion. Why  should  a  mer- 
chant hesitate  to  begin 
keeping  records  when  it  is 
possible,  at  practically  no  cost  and  with 
but  little  expenditure  of  time,  to  equip 
himself  with  sufficient  information  by 
simply  following  the  ideas  presented  in 
this  brief  story? 

The  merchant  should  know,  and  not 
guess,  that  the  price  at  which  he  sells 
an  article,  or  the  price  for  which  he 
contracts  to  do  work,  will  cover  the — 

Exact  cost  of  the  article,  or  the 
Exact    cost    of    the    material    and 

labor  used  in  the  contract. 
The  proportionate  part  of  the  cost 

of  conducting  the  business  which 

the  article  or  the  contract  should 

bear. 
With  a  little  for  his  living,  and 
Something  besides. 

He  should  again  know,  without  simply 
estimating,  whether  all  his  sales  or  all 
his  contracts  at  the  end 
of  any  given  period  of 
time  equal  the  first  three 
items  as  above  cited. 

If  they  equal  the  cost 
as  indicated,  then  there  is 
no  profit. 

If  they  exceed  the  cost;, 
then  a  profit  is  a  reality. 

No  merchant  can  be 
easy  in  mind  and  fair  to 
his  business  creditors  or 
bank,  or  even  the  business 
public,  who  cannot  tell 
whether  or  not  his  busi- 
ness enterprise  is  making 
a  profit. 

How  He  Can  Tell. 

This  can  only  be  done 
'\v  keeping  certain  records 
—commonly  known  as 
l>'"iks  of  account. 

Without  books  of  ac- 
ci'Unt,  a  merchant  un- 
consciously goes  on  the 
r<"  ks  or  loses  the  chance 
<^'  making  his  business 
profitable. 

Why  should  he  wait  un- 

the  time  when  he  finds 

cannot    pay    his    bills 

'I  hasn't  assets  enough 

meet  his  liabilities? 

>Vhy    should    he,    when 


certain  simple  records  would  give  him 
the  information  any  time? 

How  can  he  tell  what  profits  the 
business  is  making,  even  though  he  is 
meeting  his  obligations,  unless  he  keeps 
certain  records? 

How  Books  Show  Profits. 

With  this  straight-from-the-shoulder 
message  to  all  merchants  not  keeping 
records  or  books  of  account,  and  be- 
lieving that  they  will  realize  the  fact 
that  present  conditions  will  not  permit 
a  business  enterprise  to  run  without 
such  records,  it  is  our  earnest  effort  to 
make  certain  recommendations  in  the 
way  of  a  general  outline  of  simple  and 
easily  kept  records,  which  we  shall  call 
books  of  account,  our  great  desire  being 
to  render  business  service  and  to  put 
sound  props  under  every  business  enter- 
prise. ** 

The  transactions  that  go  to  make  up 
a  day's  work  in  any  business  develop 
either  a  profit  or  a  loss.  If  a  profit,  it 
finds  its  way  into  capital,  or  net  worth; 
the  net  worth  is  increased.  If  a  loss,  the 
net  worth  is  decreased. 

Starting  at  the  beginning,  then,  a 
record  of  the  merchant's  investment  in 
the  business,  his  net  worth,  or  capital 


(as  it  is  termed),  is  necessary.  Such  a 
statement  of  net  worth  we  will  con- 
struct right  here.

'    1»1»H 


Eighty  per  cent  of  business 
failures  in  the  United  States 
are  of  firms  having  $5,000  or 
less,  ''too  small  to  make  book- 
keeping worth  while"  in  the 
minds  of  those  that  fail.  The 
simple  system  here  described 
fits  the  needs  of  the  small 
florist  and  will  keep  him  clear 
of  the  financial  rocks. 


We  begin  with  assets,  which  term 
covers  property  or  accounts  of  value 
such  aa  are  listed  above  and  numbered 
from  1  to  6.  The  total  of  these  assets 
in  dollars  and  cents,  when  compared 
with  the  total  amount  of  debts,  de- 
termines whether  a  business  enterprise 
is  able  to  pay  its  debts  and  is  there- 
fore what  we  call  solvent, 
or  is  unable  to  pay  its 
debts  and  is  insolvent. 
There  should  be  at  least 
$2  of  assets  to  every  dol- 
lar of  debts. 

Liabilities  are  the  oppo- 
site of  assets  (see  above, 
items  numbered  10  to  14), 
and  to  play  the  business 
game  right,  the  object  is 
to  keep  the  liabilities  less 
than  the  assets.  The 
greater  the  difference  be- 
tween them,  the  greater 
the  investment  and,  there- 
fore, the  success  of  the 
business. 

Figuring  Income. 

So,  the  first  thing  that 
books  of  account  tell  us, 
is  what  is  invested  in  a 
business  at  the  beginning, 

The  next  step  is  tc 
make  the  investment  earn 
money  by  the  carrying  on 
of  business,  whatever  it 
may  be,  for  the  purpose  of 
making  a  profit.  We  can 
increase  our  net  worth 
by  adding  to  our  income. 
We  add  to  our  income 
when  we  make  a  profit  on 
^hat  we  sell.  So,  a  mer- 
chant must   censtruct   his

accounts  bo  that  they  will  show  in  ad- 
dition: (1)  Income,  (2)  expense,  (3) 
net  profit,  or  net  loss. 

Income. 

Income  is  what  flows  into  the  busi- 
ness, and  the  word  itself  suggests  some- 
thing that  is  moving  and  not  stationary. 

Opposite  this  is  expense — the  outflow 
of  a  business,  and  this  term  also  sug- 
gests things  that  are  in  action  and  not 
stationary. 

To  arrive  at  the  net  profit  or  the  net 
loss,  it  is  absolutely  necessary  ^o  record 
•vary  transaction;  so  we  will  group  the 
classes  of  income  and  group  tlie  elasiei 
of  expense:

abOTO    9 

Total   Expenses    9 

When  deducted  from  total  in- 
come glTes  net  profit,  or  net 
income   9 

This  net  income,  to  the  penny,  will  be 
reflected  in  assets  and  liabilities.  Every 
penny  of  profit  will  either  increase  the 
assets  or  decrease  the  liabilities.  Every 
penny  of  loss  will  either  decrease  the 
assets  or  increase  the  liabilities,  thereby 
decreasing  the  net  worth. 

Any  business,  no  matter  in  what  line 
of  effort  or  what  is  the  size  of  its  cap- 
ital, is  subject  to  this  principle. 

Having  explained  how  books  of  ac- 
count, divided  into  four  classifications 
(assets,  liabilities,  income,  expenses), 
indicate  whether  a  business  is  making  a 
profit  or  a  loss,  we  will  now  endeavor 
in  a  similar  fashion  to  offer  some  idea 
of  how  books  of  account  (of  a  simple 
kind),  can  be  secured  by  a  merchant 
and  kept  so  that  he  can  tell  accurately, 
with  the  leaat  possible  effort,  what  are 
the  income  and  expenses,  the  assets  and 
liabilities,  the  profit  or  loss  of  his  busi- 
ness enterprise. 

The  Books  of  Account. 

Having  reached  in  our  development 
of  the  bookkeeping  process,  or  rather 
of  the  books  of  account  that  are  needed 
in  connection  with  a  man's  business, 
the  kind  of  facts  to  record  as  to  what 
happens  from  day  to  day,  month  to 
month,  or  year  to  year,  we  will  say  in 
illustration  that  when  the  merchant 
buys  merchandise  and  it  is  delivered 
to  him,  he  charges  it  to  the  business 
enterprise  on  the  books  of  account,  and 
credits  the  person  from  whom  goods  are 
bought.  When  the  merchandise  is  sold, 
credit  at  cost  is  given  to  merchandise, 
and  the  profit  is  credited  to  profit  on 
sales.  When  a  merchant  puts  cash  capi- 
tal into  the  business,  he  charges  cash 
and  credits  the  investment,  and  when 
payments  are  made  for  expenses  in- 
curred, he  credits  or  reduces  his  cash 
and  charges  the  items  paid  to  various 
accounts  involved. 


The  books  of  account,  therefore, 
form  the  connecting  links  between  a 
merchant  and  his  business  enterprise. 

Simplified  Double  Entry.   • 

The  old  and  customary  form  of  book- 
keeping is  what  is  known  commonly  as 
"double  entry,"  involving  cash  book, 
check  book,  purchase  book,  sales  book, 
journal,  sales  ledger  and  general  ledger. 
When  a  merchant  is  in  a  position  to 
keep  such  books,  or  can  afford  to  hire 
a  bookkeeper  for  the  purpose  of  keep- 
ing them,  .there  are  none  better. 

For  some  enterprises,  however — and 
it  is  to  these  that  our  present  message 
is  addressed — ^we  j^ill  retain  the  idea 
behind    double     entry    bookkeeping,

namely,  a  system  of  balances,  dollar 
for  dollar,  on  each  side  of  an  account, 
but  endeavor  to  do  it  with  a  few  simple 
books  of  account. 

After  thinking  the  matter  over  with 
the  utmost  care,  we  are  recommending 
principles  and  methods  which  any  mer- 
chant can  apply,  which  can  be  embodied 
merely  in  two  books,  the  check  book 
and  the  entry  book  ruled  as  a  double 
entry  ledger,  which  will  serve  the  pur- 
pose of  a  ledger  and  a  journal.  These 
two  books,  with  files  for  bills  and  other 
papers,  will  be  sufficient  for  the  busi- 
ness enterprise  which  we  are  aiming  to 
reach. 

The  entry  book  or  ledger  should  be 
divided  into  five  parts:  Assets,  liabili- 
ties, income,  expenses,  journal. 

The  merchant  will  keep  these  in  mind 


while  we  explain  the  next  step  in  the- 
bookkeeping  system.

SUNDAY    CLOSINQ    SPBEADING. 

July  4  was  celebrated  by  more  than 
fireworks  by  many  florists.  The  sugges- 
tion of  The  Review  that  the  summer 
would  be  a  good  time  to  institute  the 
6-day  week  was  acted  on  by  a  number. 
In  Indianapolis  the  retail  florists  have 
formed  an  agreement  to  close  on  Sunday 
permanently  if  the  public's  cooperation 
makes  it  satisfactory.  Bertermann  Bros. 
Co.  carried  a  large  advertisement  in  the 
Star  July  3  asking  patrons '  cooperation. 
A.  Wiegand  Sons  Co.  closed  on  Sunday, 
July  4,  it  is  reported,  for  the  first  time 
in  forty-five  years.  (Clarence  B.  Greene, 
of  Greene 's  Flower  Shop,  had  begun  just 
a  month  sooner,  June  6. 

From  Charleston,  W.  Va.,  comes  the 
announcement  that  the  Winter  Floral 
Co.,  at  811  Quarrier  street,  will  close  its 
store  on  Sunday.  Announcing  the  inno- 
vation, the  company's  advertisement  in 
the  Charleston  daily  papers  said:  "Our 
employees  are  entitled  to  an  opportunity 
of  observing  Sunday  religiously  and  as 
a  day  of  rest.  Flowers  desired  for  Sun- 
day will  be  carefully  packed  and  deliv- 
ered late  Saturday.  We  respectfully 
urge  your  cooperation." 

The  announcements  of  this  practice 
follow  so  fast  that  it  is  likely  that  be- 
fore long  Sunday  closing  will  be  a  gen- 
eral trade  rule. 


Shreveport,  La. — The  Peacock  Hat  & 
Flower  Shop  will  open  here  soon.  It  in- 
tends to  become  a  member  of  the  F. 
T.  D. 

Sac  City,  la.— C.  H.  HoUied  recently 
purchased  four  greenhouses  in  St.  Peter, 
Minn.,  and  will  use  the  material  in 
doubling  his  capacity  here. 

Minneapolis,  Minn. — John  Taylor  and 
Miss  Goldbeck,  former  employees  of 
Miss  Whitted,  will  take  over  the 
Whitted  Flower  Shop  in  September  and 
run  it  under  the  old  name.

PAYING  FOR  PUBLICITY 


CONVENTION  FEATURE. 


wm  Be  Publicity  Bally. 

The  principal  feature  of  the  after- 
noon session  of  the  second  day  of  the 
^lonvention  in  Cleveland,  August  18,  will 
be  a  rally  to  the  publicity  campaign, 
Reports  from  the  chairman  and  secre- 
tary of  the  publicity  committee  will 
be  forthcoming  and  there  will  be  oc- 
casion for  congratulations  all  around 
upon  the  great  success  of  the  campaign. 
Major  P.  F.  O'Keefe,  of  Boston,  will 
I'avor  us  with  another  of  his  most  elo- 
quent addresses  on  the  subject,  "Pub- 
licity for  Flowers,"  and  we  shall  be  re- 
minded of  many  things  which  in  the 
ordinary  course  of  matters  are  likely  to 
be  overlooked. 

There  will  be  no  lack  of  enthusiasm 
at  this  meeting  and  every  contributor 
to  the  fund  should  be  present,  if  it  is  at 
all  possible.  There  will  be  information 
and  encouragement  for  many  who  have 
not  yet  contributed.  There  will  be  op- 
portunity for  those  who  do  not  read  to 
get  oral  descriptions  of  this  great  and 
grand  work.  If  the  society  had  done 
nothing  else  but  launch  this  campaign 
of  publicity  for  our  products,  it  would 
have  done  well  and  proved  the  worth 
of  the  organization  to  all. 

Urging  Public  to  Say  It. 

Do  many  of  you,  my  brother  members, 
realize  fully  the  advantage  this  pub- 
licity work  is  to  you  in  your  business? 
Do  you  realize  that  the  great  public  is 
being  constantly  urged  to  "Say  It  with 
Flowers"?  There  is  hardly  an  occa- 
sion when  flowers  are  not  appropriate 
for  the  conveyance  of  sentiment — a 
birth,  a  birthday  anniversary,  a  gradua- 
tion, a  confirmation,  a  wedding,  a  wed- 
ding anniversary,  acknowledgment  of  a 
courtesy,  congratulations,  expressions 
of  sympathy,  love,  honor,  regard;  flow- 
ers convey  the  proper  sentiment  in 
every  case.  And  in  order  that  occa- 
sions shall  not  be  forgotten,  the  cam- 
paign reminders  appear  in  a  number  of 
the  national  magazines. 

Are  you  helping  to  pay  for  this  pub- 
licity? If  you  are  not,  you  certainly 
should  attend  the  convention  and  listen 
—yes,  listen — to  the  enthusiasm  which 
will  be  expressed  in  the  proceedings  of 
the  session  I  have  mentioned.  It  would 
do  you  good.  You  would  learn  that  the 
campaign  has  increased  the  demand  for 
flowers.  Many  of  your  brother  florists 
w-ould  be  glad  to  convince  you  that 
flowers  are  being  used  today  in  much 
greater  quantity  than  could  possibly  be 
imagined;  that  occasions  such  as  I  have 
mentioned  are  remembered  by  gifts  of 
flowers  as  they  never  were  before.  The 
t^^Mmpaign  slogan  has  gone  home,  these 
T'ople  will  tell  you;  the  message,  "Say 
I"  with  Flowers,"  has  had  its  effect. 

Status  of  Fund. 

The  committee  will  report  at  the  con- 
^'mtion  the  status  of  the  campaign 
i  und  and  unless  a  little  more  interest 
i^  shown  in  the  work  they  may  not  be 
•i|ile  to  make  so  good  a  showing  as  they 
<iid  last  year  at  convention  time.  We 
C'.Ttainly  should  not  go  backward,  nor 


should  we  stand  still.  There  are  plenty 
of  florists  who  have  not  yet  subscribed 
who  can  and  might  reasonably  be  ex- 
pected to  chip  into  the  fund.  It's  their 
duty  to  do  so — to  put  the  matter  plain- 
ly. "Say  It  with  Flowers"  is  working 
for  all  and  it  should  be  kept  working 
to  the  fullest  extent  possible.  Gentle- 
men, the  determination  of  the  extent  is 
in  your  hands — through  your  support 
and  contribution.  Will  you  turn  in  that 
little  subscription  expected  of  you,  or 
will  you  risk  the  consequences  of  a  cur- 
tailment of  the  publicity  which  has  been 
of  so  much  good  to  us  all?    Let  us  hope 


Help  Your  Own 
Cause 

I  have  just  received  a  list 
of  those  who  agreed  to 
pay  their  1920  subscrip- 
tion, but  who  have,  as  yet, 
not  done  so.  It  would  help 
our  committee  consider- 
ably if  checks  were  forth- 
coming at  this  time. 

Kindly  maintain  the  dig- 
nity that  the  profession  has 
reached,  where  payment  of 
due  bills  is  a  matter  of 
first  importance. 

Have  you  paid  your  sub- 
scribed amount  for  this 
year? 

Send  remittance  to  Secre- 
tary John  Young,  43  West

York,  and  help  your  own

that  a  check  will  be  your  answer.    Our 
society  will  appreciate  it. 

A.  L.  Miller,  Pres. 


DON'T  SEE  ANT  NEED  OF  IT. 

Presumably  in  August  at  our  conven- 
tion we  shall  hear  a  great  deal  concern- 
ing our  publicity  campaign,  as  in  the 
last  two  years,  and  there  will  be  more 
pros  and  cons  regarding  its  continuance. 
Why?  Because  those  who  are  present 
at  the  convention  are  vitally  in- 
terested in  furthering  their  own  prog- 
ress, which  is  but  natural.  Then, 
there's  the  other  fellow,  who  will  not 
attend  and  who  will  not  contribute,  but 
who  will  participate  in  everything  that 
is  offered,  provided  it  costs  nothing. 
This  is  the  chap  we  want  to  get;  the 


one  who  can't  see  any  benefits  unless 
they  are  pumped  into  him  and  then 
can't  see;  he  only  feels  them. 

This  is  a  straight-from-the-shoulder 
jolt,  aimed  at  the  many  florists  who 
"Say  It  with  Flowers"  verbally,  but 
who  can't  appreciate  that  we  are  habit- 
ually calling  for  funds  to  carry  on  and 
merely  allow  the  others  to  foot  the 
bills.  They  unconsciously  let  the  others 
pay  their  proportion,  whereas  it  would 
mean  complete  success  for  the  campaign 
fund  if  each  would  just  do  his  part. 

Now,  this  is  written  for  the  beneflt 
of  all  in  the  craft  and  if  you,  Mr.  Head- 
er, have  already  contributed,  perhaps  a 
little  more  would  also  be  welcome  as 
a  jiist  proportion  in'  order  to  overcome 
the  increased  cost  of  rates  since  our 
campaign  was  started  two  years  ago. 

We  are  getting  results,  but  we  must 
move-  at  a  better  pace  to  keep  our 
campaign  up  to  its  proper  standard. 
George  N.  Smith,  the  iris  expert,  just 
told  how,  at  a  meeting  at  Wellesley, 
Mass.,  where  he  lives,  a  speaker  said, 
"Lawyers  have  to  live,"  and  another 
man  at  the  gathering  cried  out,  "Don't 
see  any  need  of  it."  It  strikes  me 
that  this  answers  the  question  why  some 
of  our  florist  brethren  have  failed  to 
send  in  their  contributions.  They  don  *t 
see  any  need  of  it. 

Well,  boys,  it's  up  to  you;  the  more 
you  send,  the  more  you  get  by  ten  to 
one,  and  it's  a  sure  way  to  meet  your 
next  winter's  coal  bill.

NATIONAL  PUBLICITY  CAMPAIGN. 


The  Demand  for  Flowers. 

With  the  passing  of  Independence 
day,  florists  look  forward  to  a  season  of 
two  or  three  months  when  the  cares  of 
business  weigh  lightly  and  considera- 
tion can  be  given  to  matters  other  than 
those  concerning  the  filling  of  orders. 
The  case  is  rare  where  a  florist  reports 
anything  but  good  business  for  the  sea- 
son now  behind  us.  Undoubtedly,  it 
was  a  good  season  for  practically  every- 
body in  the  business,  grower  and  dis- 
tributor alike.  The  consumption  of 
flowers  has  been  enormous  and  Mr.  Ash- 
barrel  has  not  been  able  to  get  supplies 
except  in  one  or  two  cases  when  natural 
conditions  favored  him,  conditions  out 
of  the  control  of  the  florists.  All  this 
has  been  due  to  a  steady  demand  for 
flowers. 

The  people  of  this  country  have,  with- 
in the  last  two  years  or  more,  been  edu- 
cated to  a  greater  use  of  flowers.  The 
simplest  table  now  must  have  its  floral 
decoration.  Even  the  most  humble 
homes  must  be  occasionally  brightened 
with  a  few  flowers.  Our  campaign  for 
publicity  for  flowers  has  been  a  great 
factor  in  influencing  this  demand.  Our 
own  publicity  has  been  instrumental  in 
producing  other  publicity.  Newspapers 
and  magazines  in  these  days  teem  with 
references  to  flowers  and  their  use  in 
domestic  life.  "Say  It  with  Flowers" 
has  become  a  thought  as  well  as  a  mes- 
sage and  our  industry  profits  in  conse-

quence.  This  is  a  result  which  it  was 
expected  our  campaign  would  produce — 
and  it  comes  to  us  in  splendid  volume. 
We  can  keep  it  active  if  we  will.  It  is 
an  asset  belonging  to  all  of  us  and  it 
can  be  made  a  heritage  if  we  value  it 
sufficiently. 

At>atliy  to  Fund. 

Many  florists,  however,  fail  to  see 
the  handwriting  on  the  wall.  They  seem 
to  accept  as  a  natural  condition  one  that 
has  required  effort  and  the  expenditure 
of  large  sums  of  money  to  create.  By 
their  silence  and  inaction  it  might  be 
thought  that  they  were  indifferent  to 
our  campaign  and  its  object.  Could 
greater  proof  of  the  efficacy  of  our  work 
be  offered  than  the  fact  that,  in  what 
might  have  been  lean  years,  our  indus- 
try has  not  suffered,  but,  on  the  con- 
trary, has  yielded  a  greater  harvest  for 
those  engaged  in  it  than  was  ever  re- 
corded in  years  we  have  been  used  to 
look  upon  as  "fat"  ones?  There  is  an 
opportunity  now  to  take  the  matter  of 
publicity  to  heart  and  it  is  timely.  We 
want  to  continue  our  efforts  in  this 
great  movement  to  increase  the  sales  of 
our  products  and  to  do  this  we  must 
have  further  assistance — money.  Make 
your  contribution  what  you  like,  as  little 
as  $5  if  you  can  afford  no  more,  but  let 
us  have  it  without  delay.  We  are  build- 
ing on  some  active  publicity  during  the 


coming  fall  and  winter  and  we  must 
start  it  now.  The  magazines  do  not 
need  us  so  much  as  we  need  them  and, 
if  we  are  to  have  their  service  in  fall, 
we  must  arrange  for  it  now.  You  can 
help  us  by  giving  us  that  support  you 
know  you  ought  to  give  by  sending  in 
your  check  right  away.

TATE'S  TIPS 


NATIONAL  ADVERTISING. 


Are  You  Helping? 

In  a  recent  issue  of  The  Review  ap- 
peared an  article  by  John  Young  in 
which  he  made  the  statement  that  not 
one-half  of  the  money  necessary  to 
carry  out  the  plans  of  the  publicity 
committee  for  the  current  year  had 
been  subscribed.  The  goal  set  by  the 
committee  was  $100,000. 

We  are  told  that  there  are  about 
1.5,090  florists  in  the  United  States., Let 
us  be  on  the  safe  side  and  reduce  these 
flgures  to  10,000  commercial  florists  who 
make  a  livelihood  only  through  the  sale 
of  flowers.  Any  child  will  divide  $100,- 
000  by  10,000  a'nd  tell  you  that  if  each 
one  engaged  in  the  business  were  to 
give  a  $10  bill  to  this  campaign  the 
committee  would  be  able  to  carry  out 
its  plans.  But  in  Mr.  Young's  article 
we  are  told  that  many  give  as  much  as 
$25  and  $50  per  month.  This  would  look 
as  though  there  are  many  of  the  10,000 
who  do  not  give  anything. 

In  order  to  bring  this  proposition 
home  to  you  and  excite  your  thought 
on  the  matter,  I  am  going  to  make  a 
comparison  with  an  event  that  is  still 
fresh  in  your  minds.  It  has  not  been 
long  since  our  government  was  urging 
every  citizen  in  the  country  to  buy 
Liberty  bonds  and  War  Savings  stamps. 
What  did  they  want  with  the  proceeds 
of  these  sales?  Why,  democracy  was 
at  stake  and  had  to  be  protected.  I 
can  hear  some  saying  that  this  is  no 
comparison.  The  government  paid  us 
a  fair  rate  of  interest  on  every  bond  we 
bought,  while  what  we  contribute  to 
the  advertising  campaign  we  get  noth- 


ing for.  Let  me  tell  you  right  now 
that  every  dollar  you  contribute  to  the 
advertising  campaign  is  paying  you  a 
larger  rate  of  interest  than  any  bonds 
you  have. 

Your  Betum. 

Let  us  stop  for  a  moment  and  consider 
why  it  is  that  the  national  committee 
wants  your  subscription.  The  slogan, 
"Say  It  with  Flowers,"  is  at  stake. 
If  citizens  had  supported  the  govern- 
ment in  the  same  percentage  as  florists 
are  supporting  the  advertising  cam- 
paign, where  would  the  country  be  to- 
day? But  you  will  say  that  we  re- 
ceived visible  results  from  the  govern- 
ment. Well,  someone  has  said,  "There 
is  none  so  blind  as  he  who  will  not 
sec." 

Since  the  national  campaign  has  been 
under  way  you  have  been  getting  noth- 
ing but  results.  I  have  heard  men  in 
the  business  attribute  the  increased  de- 
mand for  flowers  to  every  reason  under 
the  sun  except  advertising.  To  hear 
them  argue  at  times,  one  would  think 
they  would  be  glad  to  see  the  campaign 
fail,  in  order  that  their  prophecies 
might  come  true.  Is  this  a  sportsman- 
like way  to  play  any  game?  Why  not 
be  honest  with  yourselves  and  admit 
that  the  demand  for  flowers  is  larger 
today  than  ever  before  in  the  history 
of  the  business.  If  it  is  not  advertising 
that  is  causing  this  extra  demand,  then 
you,  Mr.  Nonsubscriber,  must  have  a 
better  reason,  and  you  at  least  owe  it 
to  your  brothers  in  the  trade  to  state 
that  reason. 

Getting  Interested. 

Any    leader    will    tell    you    that    the 


morale  of  men  is  everything.  We  know 
that  the  decrease  in  morale  of  the  Ger- 
man army  was  the  cause  of  that  army 
going  to  pieces  at  a  critical  time.  Let 
us  look  for  a  moment  at  the  definition  of 
morale.  It  means  just  the  spirit  that 
a  body  of  men  put  into  their  work.  This 
was  one  of  the  things  the  leaders  of 
the  American  army  recognized  and  at 
every  cantonment  there  were  men  whoso 
sole  business  it  was  to  look  after  the 
morale  of  the  men.  But  you  will  be 
asking,  "What  has  all  this  to  do  with 
the  national  advertising  campaign?" 
Why,  just  this:  The  army  could  not 
work  on  the  morale  of  its  men  until 
they  were  members  of  the  army;  neither 
can  the  advertising  campaign  work  for 
you  until  you  are  a  subscriber.  Mr. 
Young  could  tell  you  of  any  number  of 
men  who  have  more  than  doubled  their 
subscriptions  after  becoming  interested 
in  and  watchin,'^  the  campaign. 

We  hear  some  say  that  any  amount 
that  they  may  contribute  will  be  given 
to  the  local  campaign.  Now,  is  this, 
to  say  the  least,  not  a  narrow  way  to 
look  at  it?  I  will  venture  to  say  that 
those  cities  that  have  a  regular  organ- 
ized local  campaign  are  the  best  con- 
tributors to  the  national  campaign,  for, 
in  reality,  they  are  not  two  separate  and 
distinct  campaigns,  but  one,  with  sep- 
arate functions  to  perform.  The  duty 
of  the  national  campaign  is  to  educate 
the  public  to  "Say  It  with  Flowers" 
and  that  of  the  local  campaign  to  show 
how  to  "Say  It  with  Flowers."  This 
is  the  only  difference.  The  national  com- 
mittee has  been  doing  its  part  as  far 
as  its  means  would  permit.  Any  fair- 
minded  man  will  admit  this. 

Teaching  the  How. 

Have  we  been  looking  after  the  local 
end  as  faithfully?  For  instance,  near- 
ly everyone  associates  a  bride's  bouquet 
with  lily  of  the  valley.  Have  we  in  our 
local  advertisements  been  telling  the 
public  that  valley  can  hardly  be  had, 
that  when  it  can  be  had  the  price  is 
prohibitive,  that  just  as  handsome  a 
shower  bouquet  can  be  made  from 
swainsona,  white  sweet  peas,  or  any 
other  good  flower  that  you  may  be  able 
to  obtain  for  this  purpose? 

Be  frank  with  the  public;  lay  the 
cards  on  the  table  face  up;  the  object 
of  the  local  campaign  ^is  to  educate 
the  public  and  to  show  them  the  most 
satisfactory  way  to  invest  their  money 
in  flowers.  Did  you  ever  stop  to  think 
that  when  a  man  thinks  deeply  of  some- 
one— his  wife,  daughter,  or  just  a 
friend — he  cannot  find  words  to  express 
what  he  feels?  Money,  books,  candy  and 
numerous  things  are  used,  but  what 
conveys  this  feeling  and  is  more  satis- 
fying to  the  sender,  or  better  under- 
stood by  the  recipient,  than  flowers? 
Don't  be  afraid  to  let  your  advertise- 
ment carry  this  message.  Just  a  hint 
will  be  all  that  is  necessary,  for  he  has 
been  puzzling  his  brain  to  find  an  out- 
let for  his  feelings.  This  is  true  edu- 
cation. Tate.

The  Market. 

The  influence  of  the  hot,  summer 
weather  has  made  itself  felt  in  business. 
Summer  flowers  are  flooding  the  market. 
Roses  and  carnations  show  the  effects 
of  the  hot  weather  and  are  getting 
smaller  and  brown  on  the  outer  petals. 
Roses  are  overabundant  and  have  been

COAL  PRICES  STILL  SOAR

WHAT  THE  COAIi  MAN  SAYS. 


Shifts  Bespousibility. 

The  fuel  situation  seen  from  the  coal 
(li'aler's  point  of  view  is  somewhat  dif- 
ferent from  what  it  seems  to  others. 
But  the  points  the  coal  dealer  makes 
are  valuable  for  florists  to  know  in  such 
a  condition  as  now  confronts  them.  The 
following  letter  from  a  coal  concern  to 
a  Chicago  grower  contains  statements 
of  much  interest  to  those  puzzling  over 
next   season's  fuel  problem: 

"We  note  that  you  want  us  to  ship 
y()il  a  car  whenever  we  think  it  is  the 
most  opportune  time  to  buy.  We  also 
have  made  a  memorandum  to  the  effect 
that  it  will  be  necessary  for  you  to  have 
twelve  or  fifteen  cars  in  storage  before 
the  end  of  October.  If  you  will  pardon 
us,  we  would  rather  not  assume  the  re- 
sponsibility of  selecting  the  time  for 
shipping  this  car,  neither  do  we  wish  to 
go  on  record  as  telling  you  point  blank 
not  to  buy  at  this  time  if  such  action 
would  be  contrary  to  your  best  judg- 
ment. The  market  is  much  wilder  than 
seems  necessary  and  the  panicky  buy- 
ing of  people  who  ordinarily  would  not 
come  into  the  market  before  September 
has  driven  the  price  up  beyond  the 
bounds  of  reason.  The  matter  is  en- 
tirely beyond  the  control  of  the  fair- 
minded  wholesaler.  Consumers  and 
steam  users  are  bidding  the  price  up  on 
themselves  and  the  operator  cannot  see 
the  duty  or  wisdom  of  maintaining  a 
priee  level  which  does  not  fairly  screech 
with  insanity. 

Contributing  Causes. 

' '  Let  me  state  a  few  facts  so  that  you 
ni.iy  be  in  a  better  position  to  decide 
for  yourself  when  to  order  your  coal 
f';r\vard.  To  begin  with,  the  shortage 
"f  open-top  cars  is  greatly  magnified. 
I'l  fact,  it  is  far  more  a  shortage  of 
r;iilroad  men  and  motive  power  than 
^'•>Ts.  Also,  the  priority  order  which  is 
n<,\v  in  effect  and  which  is  diverting 
11'  st  of  the  open  cars  into  the  coal  trade 
^'"uld  make  a  decided  improvement  in 
^'  "  coal  industry.  The  country  is  pro- 
'1  'ing  at  the  present  time  approxi- 
1"  tely  10,000,000  tons  weekly,  which  is 
w  thin  550,000  tons  of  the  required 
^  '^kly  average  and  about  2,000,000 
t'  IS  in  excess  of  the  weekly  production 
^'  ~  the  same  periods  of  normal  years. 
^^  luld  not  this  indicate  to  your  mind 
^'  it    the    danger   of   a    coal   famine    is 


somewhat  exaggerated  when  it  is  gen- 
erally estimated  that  the  country  will 
not  require  over  535,000,000  tons  of  coal 
this  year?  Of  course,  a  shortage  may 
occur  in  isolated  sections,  as,  for  in- 
stance, in  the  northwestern  dock  terri- 
tory, where  they  should  have  in  storage 
approximately  28,000,000  tons  of  coal 
when  navigation  closes,  but  will  prob- 
ably have  only  15,000,000  tons.  Even 
there  the  outlook  is  not  so  gloomy  as  it 
is  pictured,  for  the  people  in  that  sec- 
tion still  have  five  months  of  good  all- 
rail  shipping  weather  in  which  to  pro- 
vide for  the  estimated  shortage  of  lake 
shipments. 

"Personally  I  feel  that  $6.50  per  ton 
f.  0.  b.  mines  for  Brazil  block  steam 
lump  is  too  big  a  price  for  a  greenhouse 
man  to  pay  four  months  before  he  needs 
the  coal,  and  as  for  me,  if  there  was  a 
bitter  pill  to  be  swallowed,  I  would 
much  rather  take  it  later  on  under 
pressure  than  take  it  voluntarily  now. 
I  would  at  least  have  the  satisfaction  of 
knowing  that  I  had  not  unnecessarily 
contributed  to  a  panicky  condition 
which  is  boosting  prices  to  the  high- 
water  mark  of  our  history." 


CABS  CAUSE  COAL  SHORTAGE. 

The  impression  Is  strong  that  in  spite 
of  the  recent  attempts  of  the  interstate 
commerce  commission  to  relieve  the  car 
shortage,  which  is  the  cause  of  the  coal 
shortage  in  many  parts  of  the  country, 
there  is  really  slight  improvement  in 
conditions. 

Officials  of  the  National  Coal  Associa- 
tion who  have  been  asked  by  public 
utility  authorities  for  a  conference  on 
the  present  state  of  the  coal  supply  and 
the  prospect  of  relief,  have  answered 
that  the  matter  is  all  up  to  the  inter- 
state commerce  commission  and  that  a 
conference  would  not  be  productive  of 
any  substantial  result. 

"All  over  the  country  great  manu- 
facturing plants,  public  utilities  and 
other  large  consumers  are  clamoring  for 
an  immediate  supply  of  coal  so  as  to 
avert  a  shutdown  of  industry,"  was  the 
message  from  John  B.  Pratt,  of  the  asso- 
ciation. "It  is  all  a  matter  of  coal  cars 
and  nothing  else." 

The  order  of  the  interstate  commerce 
commission  giving  a  30-day  priority  to 
open-top  cars  to  the  bituminous  coal 
mines  has  been  in  effect  since  June  21, 
but  the  car  supply,  as  reported  from  the 
coal  fields,  shows  no  genuine  improve- 


ment. The  majority  of  mines  face  car 
shortages  anywhere  from  twenty-five  to 
fifty  per  cent  of  normal. 

Railroads  are  failing  to  comply  with 
the  order  because  of  the  switchmen's 
strike.  Some  carriers,  it  is  reported, 
are  indisposed  to  comply  with  the  com- 
mission's order.  Many  roads  still  allow 
coal  cars  to  be  used,  as  formerly,  for 
transportation  of  other  commodities  and 
deprive  the  mines  of  equipment  badly 
needed  to  ship  coal. 

The  coal  operators  have  urged  strict 
enforcement  of  the  priority  order  as  the 
means  of  solving  the  coal  shortage.  For 
lack  of  cars,  mines  in  all  fields  are  now 
idle  two  to  four  days  a  week. 


PITTSBURQH  COAIi  SITUATION. 

Fuel  conditions  in  the  Pittsburgh  dis- 
trict are  reported  to  be  easing  up  grad- 
ually. While  the  producers  who  are  not 
contracted  up  as  yet  will  not  make  con- 
tracts for  any  definite  tonnage,  they 
assure  their  old  contract  customers  they 
will  give  them  as  much  coal  as  they 
possibly  can  at  prices  which  will  be  fair 
and  reasonable.  While  this  advice  is 
quite  indefinite  and  not  satisfactory  to 
a  grower  who  usually  has  his  coal  bins 
pretty  well  filled  at  this  time  and  is 
working  on  his  winter  supply,  the 
writer  hears  that  the  situation  is  one 
that  can  and  will  be  taken  care  of. 

All  producers  report  plenty  of  coal, 
but  no  cars.  Notwithstanding  the  va- 
rious orders  issued  by  the  interstate 
commerce  commission  during  the  last 
thirty  days,  the  coal  mines  have  n»t  as 
yet  received  an  improvement  in  the  car 
supply  and  as  a  consequence  growers 
are  all  still  quite  short  of  coal. 

Advice  under  date  of  June  12  from 
a  shipper  of  bituminous  coal  from  the 
northern  Pennsylvania  mines  reports: 
"I  would  advise  you  to  wait  until 
August  before  placing  your  contract  for 
coal,  as  I  hear  coal  will  be  cheaper.  We 
are  short  on  car  supply  and  a  big  de- 
mand in  Canada  and  New  England 
states  is  the  cause  of  the  high  prices 
now  paid  for  coal." 

Coal  prices  in  the  Pittsburgh  terri- 
tory last  week  wore  from  $3.50  to  $9.50 
per  ton  f.  o.  b.  mine.  The  broker  is 
responsible  for  the  flexibility  of  prices. 
Attorney-General  Palmer  can  find  plenty 
of  work  to  do;  so  far  we  hear  of  no  in 
vestigation  in  this  territory.  Those  who 
need  the  coal  at  the  high  prices  are 
glad  to  pay  for  it.  T.  P.  L.

FORT  WORTH  FLORISTS  PLAN. 


Arrangements  Well  Advanced. 

The  sixth  annual  convention  of  the 
Texas  State  Florists'  Association,  to  be 
held  at  Fort  Worth  July  20  to  22,  is 
attracting  much  interest  and  promises 
to  be  the  best  yet  held.  The  local  flo- 
rists are  exceedingly  busy  with  prepara- 
tions. 

The  Fort  Worth  florists  last  year,  at 
the  convention  held  at  Austin,  invited 
the  association  to  meet  at  Fort  Worth 
this  year.  About  three  months  ago  a 
meeting  was  called,  at  which  was  or- 
ganized the  Fort  Worth  Florists'  Club. 
The  members  have  held  meetings  every 
two  weeks  since  and  at  each  meeting  the 
attendance  has  increased  and  the  en- 
thusiasm grown.  Now  almost  all  the 
florists  of  Fort  Worth  are  enrolled  in 
the  club.  Numerous  committees  are 
working  with  the  executive  committee 
and  are  accomplishing  wonderful  re- 
sults for  the  convention. 

The  officers  of  the  club  are:  Presi- 
dent, V.  J.  Davis,  of  the  Greenwood 
Floral  Co.;  vice-president,  Leo  Bales,  of 
the  Drumm  Seed  &  Floral  Co. ;  secretary 
and  treasurer,  Elmer  Eastwood,  of  the 
Baker  Bros.  Floral  Co. 

Convention  Plans.        *- . 

The  convention  will  be  held  in  the 
auditorium  of  the  Chamber  of  Com- 
merce, which  is  a  beautiful  auditorium, 
being  large  and  spacious,  with  a  fine 
stage  and  a  balcony  running  around 
three  sides  of  the  auditorium,  under 
which  the  trade  exhibits  will  be  dis- 
played, the  center  part  being  reserved 
for  the  meetings.  On  the  evening  of 
the  first  day  this  space  will  be  cleared 
and  the  reception  to  the  president  will 
be  held.  There  will  be  many  fine  enter- 
tainment features  about  the  president's 
reception,  which  will  end  with  an  in- 
formal dance. 

The  evening  of  the  second  day  the 
visitors  will  be  entertained  by  the 
Greenwood  Floral  Co.  at  the  range  near 
the  city. 

At  the  close  of  the  convention  the 
visitors  will  be  taken  to  Lake  Worth, 
which  is  nine  miles  from  Fort  Worth, 
where  a  basket  picnic  will  be  held. 
Lake  Worth  is  a  beautiful  lake  recently 
constructed  by  the  city  and  is  part  of 
the  park  department  of  the  city.  Beau- 
tiful boulevards  are  being  built  entirely 
around  the  lake.  There  is  a  fine  bath- 
ing beach. 

There  will  be  no  charge  for  space  in 
the  trade  exhibition.  Eeservations 
should  be  sent  to  the  secretary,  Louis 
J.  Tackett,  at  Fort  Worth,  for  such 
space  and  also  for  hotel  accommodations.

The  Market. 

There  has  been  little  change  in  the 
market  in  the  last  three  weeks.  Busi- 
ness has  been  quiet,  but  not  unseason- 
ably so.  Among  the  outdoor  stock,  corn- 
flowers and  Canterbury  bells  are  the 
leaders.  The  first  outdoor  sweet  peas 
are  arriving  now. 

Various  Notes. 

The  coal  situation  promises  to  be 
worse  than  ever  this  year.  Dealers  re- 
fuse to  quote  any  prices  for  winter  de- 
livery and  decline  contracts  or  options.

Flower  Shop,  returned  recently  from  a 
week's  fishing  trip  on  the  South  Platte.

greenhouse  establishment  in  Aurora, 
Mo.,  to  Fred  Meyers,  is  now  represemt-

NEXT  MEMORIAL  DAY 


PROPAGATION  OF  VINCA  MINOR. 

This  year's  Memorial  day  business 
has  revealed  a  tremendous  demand  for 
Vinca  minor,  myrtle  or  periwinkle,  as 
it  is  variously  called.  Never  having 
grovni  it,  I  should  like  to  know  when 
and  how  it  should  be  started  and  how 
to  handle  it  to  get  the  best  stock. 

F.  G.— m. 


it  can  be  lined  out  in  the  field  for  a 
season  or  even  given  a  shift  into  3%- 
inch  or  4-inch  pots  to  sell  the  same  sea- 
son and  plant  out  any  left  over^ 

C.  W. 


This  useful  plant,  Vinca  minor,  can 
be  increased  either  by  division  of  the 
roots  or  by  cuttings.  The  latter  method 
is  the  one  more  generally  adopted. 
Make  cuttings  four  to  five  inches  long, 
using  matured  wood  and  stripping  off 
the  lower  leaves.  A  good  time  to  put 
in  a  liberal  batch  is  late  fall,  say  No- 
vember. Use  a  cutting  bench  in  a  cool 
house,  kept  at  40  to  45  degrees  at  night, 
where  a  little  bottom  heat  may  be  had 
below  the  sand  to  keep  up  a  tempera- 
ture of  55  to  60  degrees.  Keep  these 
cuttings  well  watered  and,  when  root- 
ed, pot  off  in  2^-inch  or  2J^-inch  pots. 
These  will  make  nice  stock  for  spring 
sales  and,  where  larger  stock  is  wanted,

showed  a  large  demand  for  4-inch  fever 
few.  Since  I  have  never  grown  it,  I 
should  like  to  know  when  and  how  it 
should  be  started  and  how  to  handle  It 
in  order  to  get  good  stock. 

F.    G.— 111. 


Cuttings  of  double  feverfew  taken 
from  plants  which  have  been  carried 
over  in  a  cool  house,  preferably  a  vio- 
let temperature  and  in  a  raised  beno'i 
rather  than  a  solid  bed,  should  be  taken 
in  January  or  February,  potted  into 
small  pots  as  soon  as  they  are  rooted 
and  shifted  later  into  4-inch  pots.  This 
is  for  stock  to  sell  for  benching  for 
Memorial  day  cuttings.  If  wanted  for 
bedding  purposes,  later  cuttings  must 
be  taken.  C.  W.

out  and  repot.  I  prefer  to  use  three 
bulbs  to  an  8-inch  pot  rather  than  one 
in  smaller  sized  receptacles.  Remove 
all  small  corms  or  bulblets.  These  can 
be  planted  several  in  a  pot,  or  in  flats, 
to  produce  additional  flowering  bulbs 
another  year.  A  minimum  temperature 
of  50  to  55  degrees  in  winter  suits 
callas.  They  need  a  generous  soil  and 
lots  of  water  also.  Once  well  potbound, 
top-dress  every  ten  to  fourteen  days 
with  fine  bone.  The  roots  eat  this  up 
grK^dily.  Keep  the  plants  outdoors  for 
some  time  after  repotting.  C.  W. 


ROSE  INDEPENDENCE  DAY. 

Will  wonders  never  cease!  Here  is  a 
British  firm  naming  a  novelty  for  the 
day  we  celebrate  and,  curiously,  it  re- 
ceived its  first  public  recogn^ion,  a  cer- 
tificate of  merit  by  the  Nawonal  Rose 
Society  of  Great  Britain,  Ji^y  4,  1919. 

Rose  Independence  Day  was'  raised  by 
Bees,  Ltd.,  Liverpool.  It  is  a  small 
hybrid  tea,  the  result  of  a  cross  between 
Mme.  Edouard  Herriot  and  Souvenir  de 
Gustave  Prat.  It  is  offered  in  England 
as  a  rose  of  special  value  for  garden 
cultivation,  but  it  may  have  a  future  in 
America  as  a  corsage  rose  grown  under 
glass.  It  is  of  free,  vigorous,  bushy 
growth,  producing  a  profusion  of  small, 
shapely  blooms  of  a  rich  orange-tinted 
yellow,  the  unopened,  pointed  buds  be- 
ing stained  with  red.  The  foliage  is 
small  and  glossy  and  provides  an  at- 
tractive setting  for  the  flowers.  The 
originators,  who  have  a  stock  of  some 
thousands  of  plants,  assert  that  it  is 
perpetual-flowering  and  that  the  foliage 
is  mildew-proof. 

Subsequent  to  receiving  a  certificate 
of  merit,  July  4,  1919,  Rose  Indepen- 
dence Day  received  the  National  Rose 
Society's  gold  medal  September  9,  1919. 


PUTTINO  OLD  SOSES  OUTDOORS. 

Usually  old,  forced  hybrid  tea  roses 
are  thrown  out  on  the  rubbish  heap. 
Too  few  growers  realize  what  splendid 
results  may  be  had  from  heading  this 
stock  well  back  and  planting  it  out- 
doors. 

An  object  lesson  could  be  had  if 
Roger  Williams  park.  Providence,  were 
visited  and  the  remarkable  blocks  of 
these  roses  in  the  nursery  as  well  as  in 
beds  in  the  rose  garden  proper  were 
seen.  All  carry  a  wealth  of  superb 
flowers,  superior  in  size  and  color  to 
the  same  varieties  under  glass,  and  any- 
one who  could  see  such  sorts  as  Ophelia, 
Radiance,  Mrs.  Taft,  Indiana,  G.  C. 
Waud,  Edw.  Mawley,  Lady  Ashtown,  A. 
R.  Goodwin,  Mrs.  Cornwallis  West, 
Oynthia  Ford,  Mrs.  A.  R.  Waddell,  Mme. 
Jules  Grolez  and  others  would  be 
amazed  at  their  vigor  and  luxuriance. 
'"Superintendent  Fred  C.  Green  has  a  re- 
!uarkable  collection  of  hybrid  per- 
I'Ctuals,  polyanthas  and  ramblers  in  ad- 
iition  to  the  hybrid  teas.      W.  N.  C. 

CUIiTXTBE  OF  CAIJ.AS. 

We  have  a  batch  of  calla  lilies  in  10- 
nch  pots,  four  or  five  bulbs  to  the  pot, 
hat  are  about  through  blooming.     We 


believe  that  it  would  be  better  to  divide 
these  up,  putting  one  bulb  to  about  a 
6-inch  pot.  Is  this  J;he  right  thing  to 
do?  If  so,  when  should  they  be 
divided?  Also,  please  give  us  general 
directions  for  the  drying  off  and  sum- 
mer care  of  these  bulbs.  We  do  not 
anticipate  selling  any  bulbs,  but  want 
to  carry  them  over  for  next  winter's 
blooms.  We  have  never  tried  callas 
before  and  any  information  you  can 
give  us  in  regard  to  their  culture  will 
be  much  appreciated.      E.  T.  T. — Ky.

E.  D.  Wonsetler,  Bryan,  O.,  intends  to 
remodel  the  office  and  workroom  in  con- 
nection with  the  showhouse,  thus  mak- 
ing an  up-to-date  place  in  this  live 
town.  Excellent  business  is  reported. 
"While  waiting  for  Mr.  Wonsetler,  two 
juveniles  were  interviewed,  one  proving 
to  be  the  junior  Wonsetler  and  the  other 
the  son  of  a  banker.  The  junior  Won- 
setler was  asked  if  he  intended  to  follow 
in  his  father's  successful  footsteps  and 
he  said  that  he  was  not  sure,  but  his 
playmate  suggested  that  he  should  do  so 
and  he  would  take  care  of  his  cash.  The 
prospective  florist  retorted  that  bank- 
ers were  held  up  about  once  a  year,  so 
that  would  not  be  a  safe  proposition. 
Even  the  youngsters  recognize  the  lack 
of  security  in  the  possession  of  wealth, 
which  should  be  gratifying  to  the  many 
who  profess  to  be  in  the  business  for 
the  love  vt  it.  W.  M,

The  Market. 

The  month  of  June  closed  by  .making 
a  splendid  showing  on  the  sales  record. 
The  reports  from  everywhere  show  that 
the  month  made  a  new  record.  The  prin- 
cipal cause  was  weddings,  most  of  which 
called  for  bouquets  far  above  the  aver- 
age of  other  years. 

The  market,  for  the  most  part,  did  not 
rise  even  to  the  prices  of  last  year,  due 
to  the  large  supply  of  outdoor  stock. 
Peonies,  phloxes  and  many  outside  flow- 
ers which  seemed  too  common  to  use 
other  years  were  in  better  demand  and 
served  in  making  many  decorations.  As 
July  opened,  the  demand  was  nipped 
suddenly  and  all  prices  dropped.  Eoses 
of  fair  grade  sold  for  $4  per  hundred 
and  carnations  of  the  best  grade 
brought  the  same,  but  there  was  much 
stock  which  could  be  had  for  almost 
any  price. 

Various  Notes. 

The  Florists'  Club  will  hold  its  annual 
picnic  July  21  at  the  Automobile  club 
at  Clarence,  N.  Y.  A  lively  program  is 
in  the  making  and  the  committee  in 
charge  promises  a  good  time. 

Charles  Sandiford  has  put  in  a  house 
of  roses  of  the  new  varieties.  He  is  the 
first  one  to  try  roses  in  the  city  and  the

NEWARK,  N.  J. 


The  Market. 

Eetailers  had  much  wedding  work 
right  up  to  the  end  of  June.  Business 
is  still  good,  but  it  is  evident  that  the 
trade  is  on  the  edge  of  the  usual  summer 
dull  period. 

Growers  are  busy  getting  their  chrys- 
anthemum plants  in  shape,  preparatory 
to  the  fall  trade.  Many  growers  are 
planning  for  alterations  and  improve- 
ments to  their  greenhouses  during  the 
summer  months. 

Various  Notes. 

C.  J.  Connolly,  320  Bank  street,  re- 
ports much  wedding  and  funeral  work 
during  the  month  of  June.  Transient 
trade  was  a  little  slow. 

Fred  Philips,  of  Philips  Bros.,  Broad 
street,  has  recovered  from  his  attack 
of  carbuncles.    He  left  July  5  for  Allen- 


hurst,  on  the  New  Jersey  coast,  where 
he  will  spend  a  month.  As  usual  v^iile 
on  his  summer  vacations,  he  will  s^nd 
much  of  his  time  in  deep  sea  fishing. 

Connelly  &  Plunkett,  149  Bloomfleld 
avenue,  report  "too  many  weddings," 
for  a  while  almost  more  than  they  could 
care  for.  Large  wedding  trade  was  also 
reported  at  the  branch  store,  at  20  Bel- 
mont avenue.  E.  B.  M. 


DULUTH,  MINN. 


The  Market. 

The  local  crop  of  peonies  is  just  at  its 
prime  and  some  wonderful  blooms  are 
arriving.  The  peony  is  one  of  the  flow- 
ers that  does  well  in  Duluth  and  grows 
to  perfection  with  little  or  no  care;  con- 
sequently, large  quantities  are  grown 
both  by  growers  and  in  private  gardens 
and  some  fine  specimens  are  to  be  seen 
in  the  florists'  window  displays.  Eoses 
are  of  fair  quality,  with  the  supply 
plentiful.  Carnations  are  a  little  on  the 
short  side;  the  quality  is  good.  Snap- 
dragons and  pyrethrums  are  selling 
well.  Valley  is  scarce  and  the  demand 
is  large,  chiefly  for  wedding  bouquets. 

Duluth  Peony  Show. 

The  annual  peony  show  was  held  last 
week.  The  stages  were  full-  of  count- 
less varieties  of  peonies,  poppies,  irises 
and  other  perennial  flowers.  The  man- 
agement says  that  it  was  one  of  the  best 
and  largest  exhibitions  ever  held  in 
Duluth  and  the  place  was  always 
crowded  with  visitors. 

A  splendid  showing  was  made  of 
Princess       Beatrice       and       Baroness 


Schroeder.     Jubilee  was  extra  fine, 
vase  of  Venus,  a  large  pale  pink  variet; 
attracted     much     attention.       Festiv

and  was  extra  good.    Marie  Crousse,   i 
large  salmon  pink,  was  new  to  DuIum

THRTP8  ON  BEGONIAS. 

I  am  sending  you  a  specimen  of  my 
Begonia  Chatelaine  plants,  with  which 
I  have  been  having  trouble  for  the  last 
year.  The  plants  appear  to  be  affected 
with  rust  or  blight,  which  attacks  the 
shoots,  causing  the  flowering  centers  to 
gnarl  and  dry  up,  and  soon  the  plant 
becomes  blind  wood  without  a  bloom. 
New  shoots  go  the  same  way  before  the 
first  bud  opens.  Do  you  think  that  the 
soil  is  all  right  t  A.  H.  S.— N.  Y. 

The  trouble  with  the  begonias  is 
caused  by  thrips.  On  examination,  some 
of  the  leaves  were  found  to  have  con- 
siderable thrips  on  them.  I  should  ad- 
vise spraying  with  Thrip  Juice  No.  2, 
according  to  the  directions  on  the  label 
of  the  container.  The  spraying  should 
be  done  late  in  the  day,  twice  weekly, 
until  the  plants  are  cleaned  up.  The 
shoots,  growth  and  roots  of  the  plants 
are  all  right  and  there  does  not  appear 
to  be  anything  the  matter  with  the  soil.

STRAWBEBBIES  FOB  FOBOINO. 

What  is  the  best  strawberry  for  forc- 
ing in  South  Carolina!  I  want  to  get 
the  heaviest  producer,  the  freest  setter 
and  the  best  traveler  for  a  20-hour 
journey.  E.  B.  E.— S.  C. 

The  best  strawberry  that  I  have  found 
in  my  thirty  years '  experience  in  Amer- 
ica is  Marshall.  It  has  a  color,  size  and 
flavor  unequaled  by  any  other  straw- 
berry and  produces  splendid  crops  under 
glass  if  grown  in  6-inch  pots.  Nick 
Ohmer  comes  second  in  my  estimation, 
but  is  much  inferior  to  Marshall.  The 
earliest  possible  runners  should  be 
taken  where  plants  are  needed  for  forc- 
ing, in  order  to  build  up  crowns  of  good 
size  before  cold  weather.  C.  W. 


FALL-BEABING  STRAWBEBBIES. 


Culture  for  Best  Bearing. 

While  the  ordinary  summer  varieties 
of  strawberries  must  be  cared  for  over 
a  year  before  a  crop  has  been  harvested, 
the  so-called  everbearing  or  fall-bearing 
varieties  can  be  fruited  within  four 
months  after  the  plants  are  set  and  will 
remain  in  bearing  for  two  or  three 
months  and  sometimes  afford  a  straw- 
berry shortcake  for  Thanksgiving  even 
in  Michigan.    The  same  plants  will  pro- 


duce a  crop  of  fruit  the  following  June 
and  with  a  little  care  will  bear  the 
second  fall. 

Although  the  variety  known  as  Pro- 
gressive seems  to  be  best  adapted  for 
general  cultivation.  Superb,  Francis  and 
other  sorts  do  well  under  favorable  con- 
ditions. 

A  fairly  heavy  and  moderately  rich, 
sandy  loam  seems  best  adapted  for  ever- 
bearing varieties.  If  it  is  too  rich,  the 
plants  will  run  to  vines  instead  of  fruit, 
while  if  it  is  too  light  and  poor,  a  weak 
growth  will  be  made.  A  soil  that  is 
naturally  moist  should  be  chosen,  or  ar- 
rangements made  for  watering  the 
plants  in  dry  weather. 

The  plants  may  be  set  two  by  four 
feet,  if  to  be  worked  with  a  horse,  or 
as  close  as  one  by  two  feet  or  three 
feet  in  a  small  garden.  In  closer  culture, 
they  may  be  set  so  that  there  will  b( 
three  rows  with  the  plants  one  foot  each 
way,  with  a  walk  two  feet  wide  between 
the  plants. 

Pinch  Blossoms  for  Strong  Growth. 

The  plants  should  be  given  frequent 
cultivation  and  hoeing,  pains  being  taken 
to  stir  the  soil  after  every  rain.  As  the 
blossoms  appear,  they  should  be  pinched 
off,  and  this  should  be  kept  up  until  the 
plants  have  made  a  strong  growth.  This 
may  be  as  soon  as  the  middle  of  July 
with     early-set    plants,   or    as    late    as

August  15  when  they  are  planted  late. 
In  three  to  four  weeks  after  the  picking 
of  the  blossoms  has  stopped,  the  berries 
will  begin  to  ripen  and  can  be  picked 
two  or  three  times  each  week  until  No- 
vember 1,  or  even  later  in  some  sea- 
sons. 

The  following  spring  they  will  need 
cultivation  and  hoeing,  cutting  out  some 
of  the  plants,  if  too  thick,  and  they 
will  produce  a  satisfactory  crop  in  June. 
They  will  again  fruit  during  the  fall 
months,  but  it  is  more  satisfactory  to 
start  a  new  plantation  each  spring  for 
the  fall  crop. 

While  it  is  desirable  to  set  out  the 
plants  as  early  in  the  spring  as  the 
ground  can  be  worked,  the  plants  will 
do  well  if  put  out  any  time  before  June

NEW  YORK. 


The  Market. 

Cut  flower  business  last  week  was  not 
active.  Beginning  with  a  normal  de- 
mand, business  at  midweek  commenced 
to  slacken,  until  at  the  end  it  was  un- 
usually dull,  even  for  this  time  of  year. 
With  the  prospect  of  a  3-day  holiday 
ahead  of  them,  buyers  July  1  and  2  cov- 
ered only  for  actual  needs  and  had  the 
ehoice  of  the  market  at  nominal  prices. 

Monday,  July  5,  the  market  was  dead 
on  account  of  the  holiday.  While  most 
of  the  wholesalers  were  at  their  posts, 
there  was  hardly  enough  business  in 
both  markets  to  keep  one  establishment 
busy.  Anticipating  such  conditions, 
growers  generally  have  refrained  from 
shipping. 

American  Beauty  roses  have  been  in 
fair  supply,  with  the  demand  for  them 
quite  weak.  About  $25  is  the  top  price 
for  special  grades,  and  the  quality  is 
nothing  to  boast  about.  Hybrid  teas 
are  in  sufficient  quantity  to  meet  the  de- 
mand and  clean  up  nicely  within  a  price 
range  of  $1  to  $12  per  hundred,  with 
one  or  two  varieties,  such  as  Scott  Key 
and  Hadley,  reaching  $20. 

The  supply  of  carnations  is  surprising 
for  the  time  of  year,  growers  evidently 
hesitating  to  clear  out  their  benches 
while  fairly  good  flowers  are  coming 
along  as  the  result  of  a  cool  spring  and 
early  summer.  About  $3  per  hundred  is 
the  price  for  the  best  and  down  to  50 
cents  for  the  inferior  grades.  A  few 
days  of  really  hot  weather,  however, 
will  see  the  finish, of  the  .supply,  espe- 
cially as  we  are  entering -the  vacation 
season. 

There  is  a  fair  supply  of  cattleyas, 
which  move  at  $1  to  $1.50  for  selected 
flowers  and  down  to  35  cents  for  the  gen- 
eral run  of  stock. 

The  supply  of  Easter  lilies  has  short- 
ened a  little,  and  the  price  range  is  now 
$8  to  $10,  with  a  trifle  more  for  selected 
stock.  Lily  of  the  valley  is  in  good  sup- 
ply again  and  drags  at  $4  to  $8  per  hun- 
dred. 

There  is  a  wealth  of  miscellaneous 
flowers,  all  of  which  seem  to  move  at 
some  sort  of  price  or  other.

Business  is  good.  Flowers  are  some-

pleted the  moving  of  their  greenhouses 
to  the  new  location  and  hope  to  be  ready 
for  business  again  soon.  E.  L.  F. 


ELECTRIC  son.  SIFTER. 

In  addition  to  making  two  blades  of 
g^ass  grow  where  one  grew  before,  the 
students  in  the  Kansas  State  Agricul- 
tural College,  at  Manhattan,  have  en- 
abled one  man  to  do  the  work  of  two  in 
potting  soil  by  means  of  the  device  illus- 
trated in  the  accompanying  illustration. 


This  is  a  mechanical  sifter  and  saves,  it 
is  estimated,  $150  annually  in  labor 
costs.  Before  it  was  installed,  two  men 
worked  one  day  a  week  sifting  and  pot- 
ting soil  for  the  college  greenhouse. 

The  electric  motor  which  furnishes 
the  power  was  resurrected  from  a  store- 
room, where  it  had  lain  unused  for  a 
number  of  years.  The  frame  and  fly- 
wheel are  part  of  an  abandoned  sewing 
machine.  The  sifter,  which  formerly 
did  service  in  the  hands  of  a  student 
laborer,  is  now  mounted  upon  an  iron 
rim,  supported  by  two  gas  pipes  from 
the  floor  of  the  work  bench.  These  al- 
low the  sifter  to  be  drawn  back  and 
forth  by  the  piston,  which,  too,  is  made 
of  gas  pipe. 


Mrs.  Isabel  Reid  Wadley. 

Mrs.  Isabel  Eeid  Wadley,  wife  of  Al- 
bert Wadley,  formerly  of  the  retail  firm 
of  Wadley  &  Smyth,  New  York,  died 
Sundav,  July  4,  at  her  home,  at  Plain- 
field,  N.  J. 

Services  v/ere  held  at  the  home  Tues- 
day, July  6.  Interment  was  made  in 
Beechwoods  cemetery.  New  Eochelle, 
N.  Y. 

Lafayette  W.  Goodell. 

Lafayette  W.  Goodell  died  June  25  at 
his  home  in  Pansy  park,  Dwight,  Mass., 
at  the  age  of  69  years.  He  was  born  in 
Pansy  park  and  had  spent  his  whole 
life  there.  Medical  Examiner  Segur 
said  that  death  was  due  to  natural 
causes. 

Mr.  Goodell  was  a  life  member  of 
eight  horticultural  societies,  including 
the  Massachusetts  Horticultural  So- 
ciety, from  which  he  had  received  more 
than  200  premiums.  He  was  considered 
an  authority  on  aquatic  plants. 

He  is  survived  by  a  brother,  W.  M. 
Goodell,  of  Dwight;  a  sister,  Miss 
Bessie  N.  Goodell,  of  Norwich,  Conn., 
and  a  nephew,  Lindsey  G.  Smith,  of 
New  London,  Conn.

The  Review  brings  results. 

More  money  is  being  spent  for  gasoline 
than  for  gardens  this  year. 

July  is  a  good  month  to  begin  Sunday 
closing.     Many  florists  started  July  4. 

Never  has  business  maintained  so 
strong  a   gait  into  the  summer  months. 

June,  1920,  brought  more  wedding 
orders  to  florists  than  any  mpnth  before. 

There  won't  be  many  new  people 
starting  in  the  florists'  business  yet 
awhile. 

Better  start  planning  your  trip  to  the 
S.  A.  F.  convention  at  Cleveland,  August 
17  to  19. 

The  belief  is  quite  general  that  the 
upward  trend  of  prices  has  ceased.  The 
decline  will,  however,  be  gradual  and  long 
drawn  out. 

Many  in  the  trade  state  their  readiness 
to  pay  higher  express  and  freight  rates 
provided  they  can  obtain  satisfactory 
service  in  return. 

Hard  work  and  thrift  were  never  so 
worth  while  as  now.  All  the  50-cent  dol- 
lars you  earn  and  lay  by  now  will  buy  at 
least  75  cents'  worth  at  a  not  far  dis- 
tant date. 

The  gold  medal  for  the  best  new  rose 
in  the  trials  held  at  the  Bagatelle  Gar- 
dens, Paris,  has  been  awarded  this  year 
to  Alex.  Dickson  &  Sons,  Newtownards, 
Ireland.  The  variety  which  won  the 
award  is  named  Frances  Gaunt. 

How  valuable  was  the  annual  meeting 
of  the  Tennessee  State  Florists'  Associa- 
tion is  evidenced  by  the  interesting 
volume  of  proceedings,  nearly  one-half 
inch  thick.  Tribute  to  the  Pink  Part  of 
The  Review  is  silently  paid  by  the  use  of 
blue  paper  for  the  retailers'  advertise- 
ments in  this  volume. 

One  week  before  the  S.  A.  F.  conven- 
tion the  national  organization  of  the  Do- 
minion will  meet  at  Hamilton,  Ont., 
August  10  to  13.  The  officers  of  the 
Canadian  Horticultural  Society  are: 
President,  E.  B.  Hamilton,  London;  first 
vice-president,  K  W.  Groves,  Hamilton; 
second  vice-president,  C.  J.  Hay,  Brock- 
,ville;  secretary-treasurer,  Herbert  J. 
Eddy,  4425  Sherbrooke  street,  Westmount, 
Que. 


To  meet  higher  coal  cost  the  grower 
must  use  every  available  foot  of  bench 
space.  Larger  output  reduces  the  burden 
of  overhead.  ^ 

Discussion  of  increase  in  freight  rates 
before  the  interstate  commerce  commis- 
sion has  brought  forth  estimates  of  a  fifty 
per  cent  raise  as  needed  to  cover  wage  ad- 
vances— not  an  indication  of  lower  costs 
for  flowers.  .  ■    ■,  ■   .   • 

This  year  the  American  Gladiolus  So- 
city  will  not  hold  its  annual  meeting  and 
exhibition  in  conjunction  with  the  S.  A. 
F.  convention,  but  will  exhibit  with  the 
Massachusetts  Horticultural  Society  at 
Boston,  August  14  and  15. 

The  mine  operators,  the  transportation 
companies  and  interested  departments  of 
the  government  all  report  that  the  fuel 
situation  is  easing.  Well,  perhaps  it  is, 
but  growers  see  no  change ;  they  have  not 
yet  been  able  to  get  even  a  little  coal. 

Partial  explanation  of  the  reason  why 
money  is  tight  lies  in  the  large  number  of 
new  business  undertakings.  Since  Jan- 
uary 1  incorporations  have  reached  the 
tremendous  sum  of  $8,910,116,300,  an  in- 
crease of  144  per  cent  over  1919  and  512 
per  cent  as  compared  with  the  first  six 
months  of  1918. 


wealth  of  our  nation  is  great,  but  it, 
must  be  converted  constantly  into  con- 
sumable products  through  labor. 


STILL  NEED  FOR  WOBK. 

The  disposition  of  Americans  to  con- 
sider the  national  wealth  of  vast  pro- 
portions and  theirs  as  the  richest  nation 
on  earth  leads  to  ideas  that  are  quite 
contrary  to  the  facts.  Our  national  re- 
sources do  not  make  us  all  plutocrats, 
or  enable  us  to  do  less  and  to  spend 
more  than  citizens  of  other  countries. 

Just  at  the  present  time,  when  clear 
thinking  on  economic  matters  is  of 
prime  importance,  a  recent  discussion  of 
our  national  wealth  by  a  correspondent 
of  the  New  York  Times  Annalist  comes 
as  a  distinct  contribution  in  attempting 
to  clear  up  some  quite  generally  misun- 
derstood ideas. 

As  the  writer  points  out,  we  have  all 
heard  a  great  deal  about  the  "almost 
unlimited  wealth"  of  our  country,  and 
have,  perhaps,  felt  ourselves  richer 
when  we  thought  of  our  great  resources. 
A  little  closer  thinking,  however,  makes 
it  clear  that  this  wealth  is,  after  all, 
only  potential.  Our  real  surplus  of  con- 
sumable goods  is  almost  terrifyingly 
small,  as  was  brought  home  to  us  dur- 
ing the  coal  strike,  when  only  a  few 
weeks'  supply  of  this  vital  necessity 
stood  between  us  and  famine.  So  it  is 
with  practically  all  our  necessities.  Our 
surplus  production  of  foodstuffs  from 
year  to  year  is  scarcely  sufficient  to 
carry  us  over  the  nonproducing  season. 
We  are  constantly  consuming  more  and 
more  immediately  what  we  produce. 
The  per-capita  wealth  of  this  country  in 
goods  and  money  is  about  $3,000 — not 
a  large  enough  sum  to  encourage  any 
disposition  to  extended  idleness.  We 
are,  comparatively  speaking,  poor  both 
as  individuals  and  as  a  nation.  The 
moneyed  man  is  in  the  same  position  as 
the  man  without  money  when  it  comes 
to  a  depletion  of  our  stock  of  necessi- 
ties, because  public  administration  de- 
prives the  rich  al()ng  with  the  poor  in 
times  of  stress — as  was  the  case  in  the 
recent  coal  strike. 

We  must,  therefore,  continue  to  work; 
to  produce.  There  is  nothing  to  justify 
our  resting  on  our  oars.     The  potential 


LABOR  SITUATION  BETTEB. 

A  number  of  signs  point  to  an  easi(  r 
condition  of  the  labor  market  and  better 
opportunity  for  greenhouse  men  to  se- 
cure the  help  they  require.  The  change 
has  not  been  so  marked  as  it  might  be 
had  not  so  many  workmen  such  fat 
rolls  in  their  pockets,  representing  their 
savings  from  the  high  wages  of  the  last 
year,  upon  which  they  plan  to  loaf  dur- 
ing the  hot  weather;  when  these  rolls 
have  shrunk  the  supply  of  labor  will  be 
greater. 

The  increased  number  of  available 
hands  is  the  result  of  a  number  of  in- 
dustries curtailing  their  pay  rolls.  The 
steel  mills  are  reported  to  have  laid  off 
over  80,000  men.  The  automobile  man- 
ufacturers have  laid  off  many  thousand. 
A  number  of  other  industries,  facing  a 
decreased  demand  for  their  goods  now 
that  the  orgy  of  spending  has  declined, 
are  also  engaged  in  cutting  down  their 
productive  force.  Employment  man- 
agers at  large  factories  report  growing 
lists  of  applicants,  of  which  till  lately 
there  was  a  marked  dearth. 

More  important  than  the  release  of 
these  workers  for  other  jobs  is  the 
change  in  attitude  on  the  part  of  the 
workers.  The  sight  of  coworkers  laid 
off  has  spurred  some  to  greater  effort. 
The  fact  that  available  jobs  are  not  so 
many  as  formerly  has  a  salutary  influ- 
ence, also.  Labor  leaders,  more  ap- 
preciative of  the  importance  of  in- 
creased production  to  lower  the  cost  of 
living,  are  appealing  to  the  rank  and 
file  to  quit  soldiering  and  get  to  work. 
It  is  reported  that  one  of  the  large  au- 
tomobile factories,  after  laying  off 
1,500  nren,  found  its  output  the  follow- 
ing week  had  decreased  just  two  cars. 
Perhaps  the  scale  of  productive  ef- 
ficiency, after  so  decided  a  decline,  will 
now  take  an  upward  turn. 


BASED    ON   GOOD   BESULTS. 

Some  people  approve  just  to  be  agree- 
able, whether  they  know  what  they  are 
approving  or  not.  Others  may  recom- 
mend on  hearsay,  on  secondhand  infor- 
mation. But  when  someone  volunteers 
his  approval  and  gives  it  because  of 
results,  good  results,  which  have  come 
to  him,  then  his  recommendation  is 
worth  something.  It's  worth  still  more 
when  he  follows  it  himself.  Here  you 
have  it: 

Please  cancel  geranium  ad  which  is  now  run- 
ning in  The  Review.  We  should  be  pleased  to 
have  you  run  ad  for  chrysanthemums  for  one 
more  week.  We  highly  recommend  The  Re- 
view, which  has  brought  us  good  resulU.— 
Pontricb   Bros.,    Louisville,    Ky.,    June   28,    1920. 

If  you  hear  a  man  complain  of  the 
cost  of  advertising  you  can  be  pretty 
certain  he  spends  a  good  bit  of  monev 
elsewhere  than  in  The  Review.

The  Florists^  Review 


25 


BOSTON. 

The  Market. 

We  have  now  entered  the  dullest  por- 
tion of  the  year  and  business  has  sunk 
to  its  customary  summer  dullness.  This 
hajipens  each  year  and  is  to  be  expected, 
and,  although  we  may  hear  salesmen 
state  that  trade  was  never  so  bad,  we 
know  that  their  memories  are  short  and 
that  general  conditions  are  better  than 
for  some  years  past,  also  that  cut  flower 
sai'^s  for  the  season  just  ending  have 
be<'ti  more  satisfactory  than  ever  before. 
A  couple  of  quiet  months  are  to  be  ex- 
pc(  ted  and,  as  arrivals  are  steadily 
declining  and  growers  are  busy  housing 
their  young  stock  or  enjoying  short, 
well  earned  vacations,  the  conditions 
for  July  and  August  need  not  worry  us, 
for  everyone  believes  the  coming  fall 
will  see  better  business  than  ever. 

Koses  are  deteriorating  in  quality 
and  sales  are  made  at  whatever  can  be 
secured.  Carnations  fell  as  low  as 
$3. no  to  $5  per  thousand  last  week,  with 
good  stock  selling  moderately  well. 
Some  nice  outdoor  sweet  peas  are  com- 
iuf;  in  and  sell  well.  There  is  but  little 
demand  for  callas,  lilies  and  snap- 
dragons. The  last  of  the  peonies  are 
coming  in  and  demand  for  such  flowers 
as  delphiniums  and  gladioli  is  rather 
feeble.  Excellent  bouvardia  comes  in, 
but  only  white  seems  to  sell.  Cattleyas 
are  scarce.  Gypsophila  elegans  sells 
fairly  well  and  the  hardy  variety,  G. 
paniculata,  has  appeared  this  week; 
also  such  flowers  as  gaillardias  and 
Coreopsis  grandiflora.  There  is  little 
call  for  asparagus  and  adiantum. 

Markets  started  to  close  early  July  3 
and  will  continue  to  do  so  until  after 
Labor  day. 

Various  Notes. 

•Johnston  Knight,  manager  of  the 
Boston  Cooperative  Flower  Market, 
leaves  this  week  for  a  fortnight 's  vaca- 
tion at  Marblehead.  M.  Aronson  is  en- 
joying a  fortnight's  vacation  at  Med- 
way,  Mass. 

William  J.  Thurston,  of  the  Boston 
Flower  Exchange,  leaves  th^s  week  for 
a  vacation  to  be  spent  at  the  seashore. 

John  K.  M.  L.  Farquhar  sails  from 
New  York  July  19  on  a  European  trip. 
He  will  land  at  Havre  and  will  visit 
France,  Belgium,  Holland  and  Great 
Britain  while  away.  He  will  sail  back 
to  America  September  4. 

Thanks  to  excellent  showers  and  fine 
growing  conditions,  the  outlook  for  a 
good  exhibition  of  the  American  Sweet 
Foa  Society  in  Horticultural  hall  July 
1*^  and  11  is  excellent.  The  Massachii- 
si'tts  Horticultural  Society  has  twenty- 
four  classes  allotted  to  sweet  peas,  in 
■'<d(iition  to  the  specials  offered  by  the 
Sweet  Pon  Society,  also  a  large  number 
ftf  classes  for  other  seasonable  flowers, 
•'1^  well  as  fruits  and  vegetables. 

•T.  r.  Harris,  of  Penn's  force,  is  enjoy- 
"iL'  a  few  weeks'  vacation  visiting 
I'hices  of  interest  in  New  Hampshire 
•^nd  Massachusetts.  At  Penn's  the 
'•'irgest  June  business  in  their  history 
^^.'is  done. 

The  Garden  Club  of  America  held  its 
^I'Miner  convention  at  Manchester, 
^'■'«s.,  last  week.  Some  400  delegates 
•"'ended,  many  coming  from  New  York, 
^' idadelphia,  Cleveland,  Chicago,  De- 
^'"it,  Pittsburgh  and  more  distant 
r-'ints.  The  North  Shore  Horticultural 
^' I  iety  gave  a  splendid  exhibition  in 
<"'  mection    with    the    convention    and 


delegates  were  taken  to  numerous 
private  gardens  and  other  points  of  in- 
terest in  Massachusetts.  The  garden 
clubs  are  wielding  a  powerful  influence 
for  the  advancement  of  horticulture 
and  it  is  encouraging  to  find  them 
solidly  arrayed  against  the  Federal 
Horticultural  Board  and  Quarantine  37. 

The  American  Gladiolus  Society  will 
hold  its  next  show  and  meeting  in  Bos- 
ton August  14  and  15  in  conjunction 
with  the  exhibition  of  the  Massachu- 
setts Horticultural  Society.  Forty- 
eight  classes  in  all  are  devoted  to 
gladioli  and,  as  plants  have  made  a 
wonderful  growth  this  season,  a  grand 
exhibition  is  assured. 

The  coming  event  of  greatest  interest 
to  a  large  number  of  florists  and  gar- 
deners and  their  families  is  the  picnic 
to  be  held  at  Cunningham  park.  East 
Milton,  July  22,  The  committee  in 
charge  is  leaving  no  stone  unturned  to 
please  everyone  and  President  Bartsch, 
of  the  Gardeners*  and  Florists'  Club, 
predicts  an  attendance  of  over  500  and 
the  best  picnic  ever. 

Miss  Broe,  of  Watertown,  bookkeeper 
at  F.  E.  Palmer's,  Brookline,  Mass., 
was  struck  by  an  automobile  when 
stepping  from  a  street  car  June  28  and 
sustained  serious  injuries.  Her  skull 
was  fractured  and  one  leg  broken  and, 
as  she  did  not  regain  consciousness  for 
some  days,  her  life  was  despaired  of. 
After  an  operation  by  an  eminent  spe- 
cialist a  turn  for  the  better  manifested 
itself  and  at  the  Peter  Bent  Brigham 
hospital  strong  hopes  of  her  ultimate 
recovery  are  now  entertained. 

The  Boston  sales  oflice  of  Hitchings 
&  Co.  is  now  at  294  Washington  street, 
where  E.  F.  Orcutt  is  in  charge. 

Peter  M.  Miller  and  wife,  of  the  T.  J.

LOWELL,  MASS. 


Rose  Show. 


The  exhibition  of  the  North  Shore 
Horticultural  Society  held  June  29  and 
30  proved  to  be  a  huge  success,  both 
financially  and  in  the  quality  of  entries 
in  all  lines.  There  was  a  large  and  en- 
thusiastic crowd  of  visitors  both  days. 

An  exhibit  which  was  greatly  ad- 
mired was  an  excellent  group  of 
tuberous-rooted  begonias  and  large 
clumps  of  Spiraea  Peach  Blossom.  The 
arrangement  had  a  background  of  large 
hemlocks  and  rustic  branches  of  birch 
from  which  hung  beautiful  specimens 
of  drooping  begonias.  It  was  staged  by 
Eric  H.  Wetterlow.  Mr.  Wetterlow 
was  successful  in  a  table  centerpiece 
using  primulinus  hybrid  gladioli. 

Wm.  Canning,  gardener  to  R.  S. 
Bradley,  won  a  silver  cup  for  twenty- 
four  varieties  of  roses.  For  a  collec- 
tion of  roses  4x9  feet  the  silver  cup 
was  carried  off  by  A.  Cruikshank. 
This  exhibit  was  arranged  as  a  rose 
garden,  with  grass  border  and  a  neat 
miniature   rustic   shelter  in   the   center. 

First  prize  for  a  dinner  table  deco- 
ration was  awarded  to  Mrs.  B.  Ham- 
mond Tracy,  of  Cedar  Acres,  Wenham. 
Mass.,  using  Delphinium  Belladonna 
and  yellow  aquilegias.  Tn  this  class 
was  a  dainty  arrangement  of  Iceland 
poppies  and  gypsophila  and  also  a  table 
using  sweet  peas. 

A.  C.  Burrage.  of  Orchidvale,  Beverly 
Farms,  Mass.,  had  a  wonderful  display 
of    orchids,    artistically    arranged    the 


full  length  of  one  of  the  rooms,  which 
was  easily  the  principal  feature  of  the 
whole  show.  It  was  awarded  a  gold 
medal.  In  this  group  were  many  really 
good  varieties,  several  new  seedlings  of 
odontiodas,  the  rarely  seen  Vanda 
Batemannii  and  several  well  flowered 
Vanda  Cserulea.  President  indications, 
judging  from  the  appearance  of  the 
odontoglossums  at  Orchidvale,  are  that 
this  beautiful  and  useful  variety  can  be 
grown  successfully  in  the  New  England 
climate.  The  season  of  their  blooming 
will  make  them  extremely  valuable. 

One  large  room  was  devoted  to  trade 
exhibits.  T.  C.  Thurlow  's  Sons  Co.,  West 
Newbury,  Mass.,  had  a  wonderful  col- 
lection of  peonies,  including  almost  200 
varieties,  comprising  a  vase  of  each. 
This  firm  also  brought  a  large  table  of 
hardy  perennials  and  sprays  of  bloom 
from  choice  flowering  shrubs.  This  ex- 
hibit was  greatly  admired. 

From  E.  &  J.  Farquhar  &  Co.,  Boston, 
was  an  arranged  bed,  with  grass  bor- 
dering, of  Lilium  regale  and  one  of  a 
dainty    shrub,    Abies    Albertiana    conica. 

From  the  Blue  Hill  Nurseries,  South 
Braintree,  Mass.,  came  a  choice  collec- 
tion of  new  and  rare  hardy  evergreen 
shrubs,  including  thirty-six  varieties. 

Alex  Magnuson  had  an  excellent  table 
of  hardy  flowers  and  annuals,  occupying 
about  4x15  feet. 

Ralph  W.  Ward,  Beverly  Cove,  had 
a  collection  of  hardv  flowers  and  an- 
nuals, including  salpiglossis,  summer 
chrysanthemums,  hardy  single  pinks, 
peonies  and  delphiniums. 

Muller-Sealy  Co.,  New  York,  obtained 
a  first-class  certificate  for  a  new  climb- 
ing rose,  Paul 's  Scarlet  Climber,  of 
brilliant  color  and  fine  in  form.

The  Market. 


The  men  in  the  market  suffered  some- 
thing of  a  shock  last  week,  for  the 
slump  was  sudden,  severe  and  unex- 
pected. Those  who  undertook  to  ex- 
plain it  generally  laid  it  to  the  return 
of  high  temperatures  after  several  days 
of  Chicago's  famous  summer-resort 
weather,  but  the  probability  is  that 
the  approach  of  a  double  holiday 
had  at  least  as  much  to  do  with  it. 
Fourth  of  July  is  one  holiday  which 
means  exactly  nothing  in  the  flower 
business.  Being  celebrated  on  Monday, 
and  with  nearly  all  flower  stores  now 
closed  on  the  Sabbath,  it  meant  sixty 
consecutive  hours  for  retailers  to  carry 
all  stock  on  hand  Saturday  night.  No 
doubt  this  accounted  in  large  measure 
for  the  slump  in  the  shipping  trade 
.Tuly  2  and  3,  as  well  as  for  the  light 
buying  of  tlie  city  retailers;  nobody 
wanted  to  carry  flowers  over  the  double 
holiday. 

Proverbially  the  flower  business 
slumps  with  the  passing  of  June,  with 
the  result  that  retailers  bought  little 
.Inly  1,  waiting  to  see  what  the  develop- 
ments would  be.  July  2  and  3  were  hot, 
filling  the  market  with  stock  on  the 
(lays  of  the  year  when  the  demand  is 
lightest.  Roses  accumulated  more 
rapidly  than  anything  else,  unle«'s  it 
was  lilies.  It  takes  only  a  few  days  of 
warm  weather  to  produce  a  marked  ac- 
celeration of  rose  production,  with  the 
result  that  a  good  many  wholesalers 
closed  July  3  with  well  filled  iceboxes.

The  half-day  business  July  5  did  some- 
thing to  relieve  conditions,  as  the  re- 
ceipts were  small,  there  being  no  ex- 
press service.  The  roses  now  in  market 
principally  are  pink.  Russell,  still  es- 
teemed by  many  as  the  best  summer 
rose,  has  surrendered  first  place,  for 
quantity  at  least,  to  Premier,  with  Co- 
lumbia also  making  a  strong  showing. 
The  Killarneys  have  about  disappeared, 
for  white  is  scarce. 

The  supply  of  Easter  lilies  grew  as 
the  end  of  June  approached  and  the  first 
days  of  July  found  the  market  badly 
overloaded.  Except  for  weddings,  which 
decrease  in  number  with  the  passing  of 
June,  lilies  have  little  use  outside  of 
funeral  work  and  the  call  was  not 
enough  to  clear  the  market  even  by  cut- 
ting prices.  Sintie  this  crop  came  on  lily 
growers  have  not  been  getting  their 
money  back,  let  alone  a  profit  on  forcing 
the  bulbs.  At  Easter  it  was  said  the 
bulbs  produced  an  unexpected  number 
of  flowers,  but  this  has  not  been  true  of 
late.  It  is  reported  that  some  of  the 
growers  have  been  marketing  an  aver- 
age of  one  and  one-half  flowers  for  each 
bulb  planted.  As  7  to  9  bulbs  bought  in 
quantity  cost  the  growers  about  18  cents

apiece,  it  is  apparent  that  the  flowers 
must  bring  12  cents  if  the  grower  is  to 
get  his  money  back,  say  nothing  of  a 
profit.  Within  the  last  week  lilies  have 
been  jobbed  for  as  little  as  6  cents,  from 
which  it  is  easy  to  see  the  grower  won't 
store  much  coal  with  the  profits  on  his 
summer  lilies.  At  Easter  it  was  proved 
that  surplus  lilies  can  be  held  in  cold 
storage  for  weeks — some  of  the  Easter 


crop  was  sold  at  Memorial  day — and  it 
seems  to  afford  the  only  recourse  at  pr 's- 
ent,  if  loss  is  to  be  avoided.  But  lil'i'S 
must  be  used  steadily  if  the  supply  of 
bulbs  is  to  be  consumed  before  the  niW 
crop  arrives. 

Carnations  have  not  been  in  large  sip- 
ply,  but  still  have  exceeded  the  demand- 
Gladioli  from  outdoors  are  treading  on 
the  heels  of  the  indoor  crop.    Valley  l'^^

on  the  fifth,  business  picked  up.  No- 
body in  the  retail  line  had  much  stock 
and  everybody  had  to  buy,  with  the  re- 
sult that  business  was  brisk.  There  is 
general  confidence  that  July  will  be 
even  better  than  last  year,  which  was 
the  busiest  summer  month  yet  recorded, 
although  it  will,  of  course,  be  largely  in- 
fluenced by  the  weather — good  when  it 
is  cool,  poor  when  it  is  hot. 

The  Weather  in  June. 

June  was  a  month  unusually  favor- 
able for  the  production  of  flowers.  It  is 
possible  for  the  sun  to  shine  on  Chicago 
455  hours  and  six  minutes  during  June. 
It  actually  shone  342  hours  and  twelve 
minutes,  or  seventy-five  per  cent  of  the 
possible  duration.  The  normal  for  June 
is  seventy  per  cent.  The  precipitation 
was  almost  four  inches,  about  a  quarter 
of  an  inch  mor«  than  normal.  There 
were  sixteen  wholly  clear  days  and  the 
mean  temperature  was  64  degrees,  2.8 
degrees  above  normal.  There  were  ab- 
normal heat  waves  from  June  7  to  16 
and  from  June  26  to  the  end  of  the 
month.- 

TThe  Elks  Are  Here. 

It  is  said  there  are  200,000  Elks  in 
Chicago  this  week  and,  however  accu- 
rate that  figure  may  be,  they  let  their 
presence  be  known.  The  most  spectac- 
ular delegation  is  that  from  Philadel- 
phia, and  at  the  head  of  it  is  a  well 
known  florist,  Charles  H,  Grakelow.  The 
Tribune  printed  his  portrait  July  6  with 
this  comment: 

"Charles     Grakelow     is     his     name. 

Everybody  calls  him  Charlie,  the  bird 

with  the  pep.    He  led  the  polychromatic

CATCHES  the  eye,  attracts  and  compels  attention.    It 
gives  advertising    that    most    necessary    quality — 
GLANCE  VALUE. 

GLANCE  VALUE — It's  a  mighty  important  part  in  ad- 
vertising. Experts  tell  us  it  represents  95%  of  the  result- 
getting  power  of  an  ad.  Without  it  900  out  of  1,000 
pieces  of  mail  are  wasted. 

In  our  new  series  of  De  Luxe  Folders  for  next  season,  we 
have  worked  for  GLANCE  VALUE  from  the  making  of 
the  illustration  to  the  printing.  The  illustrators  who  made 
the  designs  (Will  Foster,  Henry  Hutt,  Irwin  Myers)  are 
artists  of  national  reputation — the  best  we  could  get. 
Their  designs  have  been  reproduced  thru  harmonious 
COLOR  blending  of  5  and  6  printings. 

The  factor  of  GLANCE  VALUE  in  our  De  Luxe  series 
compels  attention  and  encourages  one  to  READ.  That's 
paramount,  for  after  you  get  attention  a  real  flower  sell- 
ing idea  in  each   folder  does  the  rest  -secures  results.

Sijuad,  the  overseas  squad,  the  band,  the

-  St  of  the  country  seems  to  think  we

Many  Chicago  florists  are  members  of 
e  order  and  are  giving  special  atten- 


tion to  entertaining  visiting  members  of 
the  trade. 

Various  Notes. 

July  1  the  express  company  put  into 
use  the  new  system  of  receipting  for 
shipments,  doing  away  with  the  books 
previously  used  and  substituting  a 
blank  in  triplicate.  The  shipper  keeps 
one  copy  and  two  are  used  in  the  ex- 
press system,  but  the  shipper  makes  out 
all  three,  with  much  greater  care  than 
was  required  under  the  old  method.  The 


shippers  do  not  like  the  new  system  be- 
cause of  the   increased  work  involved. 

O.  W.  Frese  says  that  if  retailers  will 
look  to  the  ventilation  of  their  ice 
boxes  they  will  find,  in  many  cases,  the 
cause  of  sleepy  carnations.  When  a  box 
is  properly  cooled,  the  closing  of  flowers 
usually  is  due  to  suffocation,  not  age, 
according  to  his  observation,  and  the 
hint  may  be  worth  a  good  deal  of  money 
to  someone. 

C.  L.  Washburn  was  delighted  with 
the  reception  accorded  the  first  two  cars

of  kentiaa  shipped  east  from  Bassett  & 
Washburn's  California  establishment. 
He  said  he  received  exactly  the  same 
form  of  approval  on  each  car,  one  from 
Eiverton,  N.  J.,  the  other  from  Morton 
Grove,  111.  In  each  case  it  was  a  cheek 
discounting  the  bill  and  an  order  to  ship 
another  car  as  soon  as  possible.  Bassett 
&  Washburn  do  not  intend  at  present 
to  sell  in  other  than  carload  lots,  leav- 
ing distribution  to  the  jobbers. 

W.  A.  Hansen,  assistant  to  C.  J. 
Michelsen,  of  the  E.  C.  Amling  Co.,  and 
Miss  Pedersen,  head  bookkeeper  for  the 
Joseph  Foerster  Co.,  were  quietly  mar- 
ried July  3  and  are  away  on  their  honey- 
moon. They  have  many  friends  who 
will  offer  congratulations  on  their  re- 
turn. 

John  Poehlmann  leaves  July  9  to 
spend  a  fortnight  with  friends  at  Nan- 
tucket. It  will  be  his  first  vacation  on 
the  Atlantic  seaboard. 

A  runaway  automobile  July  3  at- 
tempted to  enter  the  stores  of  the  Chi- 
cago Flower  Growers'  Association  and 
J.  A.  Budlong  Co.,  by  way  of  the  rear 
windows,  but  was  diverted  by  the  curb. 
It  was  a  narrow  escape  and  the  wreck 
created  considerable  diversion  on  an 
otherwise  lifeless  afternoon. 

Trade  visitors  at  Eavinia  park  ap- 
prove Fritz  Bahr's  plantings  there, 
mostly  petunias,  geraniums  and  cannas, 
noting  with  special  interest  a  bed  of 
tuberous-rooted  begonias  in  a  shady 
spot  near  the  main  entrance. 

A.  J.  Zech  thinks  it  a  great  misfor- 
tune that  the  price  of  lilies  has  not  been 
maintained.  He  believes  price  cutting 
now  will  result  in  driving  many  growers 
out  of  lily  forcing,  to  the  disadvantage 
"of  all  branches  of  the  trade. 

Eric  Johnson  is  well  pleased  with  the 
Dunlop  rose.  Not  only  does  it  appeal 
to  his  personal  tastes,  but,  better  yet, 
the  buyers  take  to  it  so  well  that  the 
limited  daily  receipts  are  cleaned  up  on 
Bight. 

Many  of  the  wholesalers  and  retailers 
decorated  for  the  Fourth  and  for  the 
Elks,  but  none  hung  out  so  much  bunt-

1,  the  call  for  the  use  of  insecticides  be- 
ing later  than  usual  in  starting.  Mr. 
Johnson  thinks  an  outdoor  staff  is 
highly  desirable  for  any  retail  florist  lo- 
cated in  a  residence  district. 

A.  C.  Kohlbrand  says  that  the  season 
for  indoor  sweet  peas  demonstrated  the 
retailers'  preference  for  Columbia 
above  all  other  varieties.  Yarrowa,  he 
adds,  a  favorite  with  the  sweet  pea 
growers,  has  failed  to  win  equal  appro- 
bation in  flower  stores. 

Charles  Erne  always  takes  a  half  holi- 
day on  his  birthday — because  it  is  July 

4.  He  was  born  in  1876. 

Eugene  Frank  Kurowski,  president  of 
the  John  C.  Moninger  Co.,  celebrated  his 
sixty-second  birthday  anniversary  July 

5,  while  on  a  fishing  trip  in  northern 
Michigan. 

W.  W.  Barnard  left  July  3  on  a  vaca- 
tion trip  to  various  eastern  points,  go- 
ing by  boat  to  Cleveland  and  thence  by 
automobile.  He  will  be  gone  a  little 
over  a  month  and  will  return  by  way 
of  Cleveland  to  take  in  the  S.  A.  F.  con- 
vention. This  departure  a  day  before 
his  sixty-fourth  birthday  made  it  neces- 
sary for  his  friends  to  do  their  congratu- 
lating early.  R.  B.  Howe  made  the  lake 
trip  with  Mr.  Barnard,  returning  by  rail. 

The  Central  Refrigerator  &  Equip- 
ment Co.,  of  which  Frank  J.  Rieaux  is 
manager,  is  in  process  of  dissolution. 

Raymond  Ziska,  of  Ziska  &  Sons,  this 
year  celebrated  the  Fourth  and  his 
birthday  together.  He  was  born  in  Chi- 
cago, July  5, 1897. 

W.  J.  Smyth  has  taken  his  son-in-law 
into  the  store,  with  the  intention  of 
making  a  full-fledged  florist  out  of  an 
accomplished  salesman. 

Visitors. 

Gilbert  MacLean,  of  MacLean  Bros., 
Madison,  Wis.,  was  here  last  week  on 
an  errand  connected  with  the  heating 
of  two  new  vegetable  houses,  each  33x 
150.  They  have  had  a  Superior  boiler 
built  to  order.

The  Market. 

June  was  a  remarkable  month  for 
business  with  all  the  florists.  There 
were  more  weddings  than  usual.  One 
theory  advanced  is  that  many  weddings 
postponed  on  account  of  the  war  have 
taken  place.  Entertainipents  of  various 
sorts  have  been  on  a  more  lavish  scale 
than  for  some  time  and  funeral  work 
has  been  heavy.    Stock  is  at  low  ebb.

Roses  are  scarce  and  not  good.  Home- 
grown carnations  are  done  for  the  sea- 
son, although  good  ones  are  being 
shipped  in.  There  is  not  much  to  de- 
pend upon  except  garden  flowers. 
These  are  of  exceptional  quality.

J.    Tucker,    general    manager    of 
view  Farm,  announces  the  arrival 


of  a  new  boy  at  his  home,  Robert  Long 
Tucker. 

Henry  Kusik  &  Co.  had  a  run  of  busi- 
ness last  week  that  was  difficult  to  keep 
up  with,  as  stock  was  running  short. 

Miss  J.  E.  Murray  has  had  a  heavy 
month  on  funeral  work,  especially  the 
last  week.  She  had  the  decoration  of 
the  new  book  shop  of  Doubleday,  Page 
&  Co.,  which  was  recently  opened.  For 
the  first  three  days  there  were  plants 
and  baskets  on  tables  and  bookcases 
and  ferns  set  about  the  room. 

Mrs.  E.  H.  Hedges  spent  several  days 
with  friends  in  St.  Joseph,  Mo.,  taking 
advantage  of  the  double  holiday. 

Nelson  Jarrett  rented  his  fifty  cherry 
trees  this  year  at  from  $5  to  $10  per 
tree.  Following  his  usual  plan,  he 
charged   according   to   the    size   of   the 


tree  or  the  amount  of  fruit  and  per- 
mitted the  customer  to  pick  the  cherries. 
Mr.  Jarrett  says  the  birds  got  away 
with  a  good  deal  of  the  crop,  cleaning 
one  whole  tree.  Mr.  Jarrett  has  about 
finished  potting  ferns  and  is  now  pot- 
ting begonias.  He  has  between  1,200 
and  1,500  strawflowers,  three  varieties, 
just  beginning  to  bloom.  With  all  his 
work  and  three  men  short  on  his  force, 
he  has  managed  to  paint  one  of  his 
houses  and  make  a  few  repairs  about 
the  place. 

The  Chandler  Landscape  &  Floral  Co., 
4706  Millcreek  boulevard,  was  recently 
incorporated,  succeeding  the  Elmhurst 
Landscape  Co.  Marshall  E.  Chandler  is 
president  and  Clarence  A.  Chandler  is 
vice-president  and  secretary.  The  com- 
pany is  erecting  some  new  houses  and

now  has  the  ground  work  and  boiler 
room  completed  and  part  of  the  material 
on  the  ground.  The  force  of  the  Ameri- 
can Greenhouse  Mfg.  Co.,  now  working 
on  the  new  Longview  Farm  greenhouse, 
will,  when  that  is  completed,  work  on 
the  Chandler  house. 

Miss  Carrie  Etzold  will  go  to  St.  Louis 
shortly  for  three  or  four  weeks  on  busi- 
ness for  the  Nelson  Jarrett  greenhouses. 

L.  E.  Bohannon,  manager  of  the  Kan- 
sas City  Wholesale  Cut  Flower  Co.,  re- 
turned Thursday,  July  1,  from  Chi- 
cago, where  he  had  been  since  June  27. 

James  H.  Hayes  and  Mrs.  Lord,  of 
Topeka,  Kan,,  were  recent  visitors  in 
the  city. 

W.  L.  Eock  has  erected  a  large  sign- 
board, the  same  as  that  used  in  the 
national  publicity  campaign,  on  the  Blue 
Springs  road  out  of  Independence,  Mo. 
On  the  board  in  large  letters  are  the  > 
words,  "Say  It  with  Flowers."  On  top 
of  the  board  is  a  small  sign  with  "This 
road  leads  to  Eock's  Flower  Garden." 

The  T.  J.  Noll  Floral  Co,  is  receiving 
shipments  of  supplies  right  along  and  is 
rapidly  getting  its  new  store  into  good 
shape. 

Through  the  months  of  July  and  Au- 
gust a  fresh  air  camp  will  be  maintained 
at  Longview  Farm.  Twenty-five  fam- 
ilies, regardless  of  the  size  of  each  fam- 
ily, will  be  cared  for  each  two  weeks. 
Everything  in  the  way  of  living  will  be 
supplied  free,  including  fresh  milk  and 
butter  and  eggs  from  the  farm.  These 
outings  are  given  on  the  farm  each  year 
and  are  the  only  opportunity  for  fresh 
air  and  vacation  that  the  mothers  and 
children  who  are  cared  for  have. 

The  wedding  of  Miss  Wally  Bauer 
and  John  Klaus,  June  26,  was  one  of  the 
most  beautiful  affairs  ever  seen  here. 
The  natural  setting  of  Graceland  Farm 
formed  a  picturesque  background,  the 
approach  to  the  home  where  the  cere- 
mony took  place  being  a  mass  of  Doro- 
thy Perkins  roses.  Numerous  and  hand- 
some presents  were  given  Mr.  and  Mrs. 
Klaus,  one  being  a  complete  chest  of 
flat  ware  from  Mr.  and  Mrs.  Phil  E. 
Toll,  owners  of  Graceland  Farm.  Mr. 
Klaus  has  been  in  charge  of  the  green- 
houses on  this  estate  for  a  number  of 
years.  J.  E.  K.

The  Market, 

Great  events  cast  their  shadows  be- 
fore. The  only  florists'  holiday  of  the 
year,  the  glorious  Fourth,  had  a  decided 
effect  on  the  market  the  preceding 
week.  While  by  no  means  a  tightly 
closed  Fourth,  the  holiday  was  more 
generally  observed  than  it  has  been  be- 
fore. The  effect  of  this  general  deter- 
mination to  have  a  little  fun  was  seen  in 
the  buying.  It  was  quite  good  early  in 
the  week,  became  poor  Thursday  and 
Friday,  then  closed  with  a  little  rush 
to  cover  orders  in  the  half -holiday  that 
preceded  the  two  days'  holiday  of  the 
week. 

The  supply  has  upset  predictions. 
There  are  more  roses  and  lilies  than 
were  expected.  The  result  has  been  a 
irarkod  reduction  in  the  price  of  roses. 
Tliov  are  twenty-five  per  cent  lower 
til  a  11  a  week  ago,  while  the  hoped-for 
advance  in  the  price  of  lilies  has  not 
come.  An  instance  of  the  difficulty  of 
correctly  judging  the  market  is  shown 
in  valley.  A  week  ago  the  supply  was 
80  light  and  so  erratic  that  taking 
orders  was  hazardous.     Today  there  is 


During  the  Summer

"My  second  trip  abroad  was  much 
more  pleasant  than  the  first.  The  food 
and  the  railroad  service  were  much  bet- 
ter. The  first  trip,  coming  right  after 
the  war,  was  hard  all  the  way  through. 
This  trip  I  enjoyed. 

"Then  florists'  supplies  were  so

the  large  centers  and  buying  in  the

return.  Two  French  papers  treated  me 
pretty  well,-  announcing  that  I  had  ar- 
rived in  Paris  and  giving  considerable 
space  to  my  mission. 

"I  went  to  Lyons  to  see  the  great 
chiffon  factories.  It  was  a  surprise  to 
find  that  the  same  machines  that  turn 
out  the  expensive  grades  used  in  dress 
goods  also  turn  out  our  pretty  but  less 
costly  stock. 

"I  had  queer  experiences  traveling  to 
the  south  of  France  to  see  the  immor- 
telles. The  immortelle  growers  there 
are  banding  together,  as  we  do  here, 
for  better  prices. 

"I  secured  quite  a  lot  of  novelties. 
One  of  these  is  natural  prepared 
flowers.  That  means  that  natural 
flowers  are  made  durable  by  subjecting 
them  to  a  process  that  has  been 
patented.  I  secured  the  American 
agency  for  these  flowers. 

"Another  novelty  is  the  tinsel  rib- 
bon. It  comes  in  silver  and  in  gold.  It 
is  intended  for  a  smart  corsage.  I 
thought  so  well  of  it  that  I  brought  a 
case  back  with  me  on  the  steamer  to 
show.  Everybody  who  has  seen  it 
likes  it. 

"Another  novelty  is  the  wood  flow- 
ers— flowers  made  of  wood.  They  are 
intended  for  ornamenting  baskets.  I 
gave  Martin  Reukauf  some.  He  has 
sold  a  lot  of  them  already.

The  Market. 

onsidering  the  time  of  the  season, 
demand  at  the  wholesale  markets 
t  up  exceedingly  well  all  last  week, 
ittle  is  coming  in  now  that  can  be 
ed  fancy  stock  except  in  gladioli, 
trade  is  buying  sparingly  these  hot 


days  and  cut  stock  for  window  display 
is  out  of  the  question  at  present. 

The  last  few  days  in  June  saw  much 
activity  in  the  end  of  the  season  for 
weddings  and  social  work  and  the  re- 
tailer is  now  content  with  only  funeral 
work. 

Eoses  are  arriving  in  limited  quanti- 
ties and  of  poor  quality.  Consigned  out- 
door stock  arrives  in  poor  condition. 
White  roses  had  the  call  all  the  week 
and  not  nearly  enough  came  in  for  the 
big  demand.  Premier,  Russell  and  Ophe- 
lia are  all  off  color  and  their  blooms  are 
small. 

Carnations  are  arriving  in  a  sleepy 
condition,  which  shows  plainly  that  the 
hot  weather  has  the  best  of  them. 
Sweet  peas  are  few  and  of  poor  quality. 

All  outdoor  stflck  is  in  good  demand. 


especially  gladioli.  These  clean  up  daily. 
With  the  appearance  of  outdoor  gladioli 
the  wholesaler  expects  a  heavy  crop 
from  now  on  and  a  big  drop  in  prices, 
which  have  recently  been  a  little  high 
on  gladioli.  The  end  of  last  week  had 
fancies  at  $15  per  hundred. 

Shasta  daisies,  cornflowers,  larkspurs, 
calendulas  and  snapdragons  are  having 
their  usual   good   demand. 

In  green  goods  new  flat  ferns  are  mov- 
ing well  and  there  is  a  big  demand  daily 
for  asparagus  and  fancy  ferns.

tion  of  the  National  Association  of  Gar- 
deners, th^  progress  of  all  committees 
will  be  reported  at  this  meeting.  A  num- 
ber of  important  discussions  will  also 
feature  this  meeting.  A  banner  attend- 
ance is  expected. 

The  officers  of  the  Florists'  Club  met 
July  1  at  the  Mission  Inn  Garden  as 
guests  of  President  Humraert  and  ar- 
ranged for  a  splendid  program  for  this 
week 's  meeting  at  the  home  of  J.  F. 
Ammann  in  Edwardsville,  111.  A  spe- 
cial car  was  arranged  for  to  carry  the 
members  to  and  from  the  meeting. 

The  Blossom  Shop,  in  the  south  end, 
and  the  Rosery,  in  the  north  end,  re- 
port a  big  week  in  wedding  and  funeral 
work.  Both  will  start  extensive  im- 
provements this  week.  The  Blossom 
Shop  recently  bought  the  building  which 
it  now  occupies  and  will  put  in  a  new 
front  with  large  display  windows. 

The  members  of  the  Geo.  Waldbart 
Floral  Co.  have  started  the  reconstruc- 
tion of  the  interior  of  the  store;  the 
work  is  keeping  Andrew  Hoffmann, 
Frederick  Michel  and  Messrs.  Christ 
and  Blair  busy.  They  report  that  the 
month  of  June  was  an  unusually  busy 
one. 

The  Bourdet  Floral  Co.  reports  that 
the  spring  trade  was  the  best  it  has 
ever  had.  All  the  stock  is  cleaned  out 
and  the  force  is  busy  planting  young 
mum  stock.  L.  .Tules  Bourdet,  presi- 
dent of  the  firm,  is  planning  things  so 
as  to  be  able  to  take  in  the  S.  A.  F. 
convention  at  Cleveland  next  month. 

The  Kalisch  Bros.  Floral  Co.,  at  Clay- 
ton, Mo.,  has  commenced  cutting  outdoor 
gladioli  of  fine  quality  at  its  Clay- 
ton farm,  where  it  has  over  100,000 
bulbs  planted.     Many  thousands  of  fine

THE   RUMBLE Y    CO.,    Evergreen,    Ala. 


Henry  G.  Beruing  and  Mrs.  Berning 
have  returned  from  their  10-day  stay 
at  Okawville,  111.,  both  much  improved 
in  health  and  in  trim  for  the  convention 
trip. 

Mrs.  F.  C.  Weber,  Sr.,  and  Mr.  and 
Mrs.  F.  C.  Weber,  Jr.,  left  July  1  for 
their  usual  summer  trip  to  northern  lake 
resorts.  They  say  they  will  attend  the 
8.  A.  F.  convention  before  returning 
home.  Arthur  Beyer  is  in  charge  of  the 
store  in  Mr.  Weber's  absence. 

The  St.  Louis  Seed  Co.  is  taking  an 
inventory,  which  is  keeping  the  force 
busy.  August  H.  Hummert,  vice-presi- 
dent of  the  company,  is  sporting  a  new 
pleasure  car. 

Valley  sales  were  heavier  with  C.  A. 
Kuehn  during  the  month  of  June  than 
in  any  previous  month  of  the  year.  Ac- 
cording to  Arthur  Meyer,  manager  of 
this  department,  with  the  advent  of  July 
trade  has  slacked  up  somewhat. 

Fred  Strohmeyer,  of  the  Ayres  Floral 
Co.,  says  that  the  last  season  was  the 
best  in  years  and  that  the  regular  sum- 
mer clean-up  would  start  right  after 
July  4.  The  only  single  man  in  this 
firm  is  Richard  Tubbesing  and  they  say 
Dan  Cupid  has  about  finished  his  job 
here. 

Henry  Ostertag  reports  that  his  firm 
has  been  incorporated  recently  under 
the  name  of  the  Ostertag  Bros.  Florist 
Co.  His  son  Charles,  a  member  of  the 
new  firm,  is  manager  of  the  cut  flower 
department.  Mr.  Ostertag  says  that  he 
has  completely  recovered  from  his  re- 
cent illness  and  is  again  100  per  cent. 

Mr.  and  Mrs.  Henri  Durenberg,  of 
Grimm  &  Gorly,  celebrated  their  first 
wedding  anniversary  June  27  and  Al- 
bert W.  Gumz,  of  the  Windier  Whole- 
sale Floral  Co.,  celebrated  his  fifth  wed- 
ding anniversary  June  30. 

Chrysanthemum  planting  has  begun 
with  the  Kirkwood  growers.  The  W.  A. 
Eowe  Co.,  Oscar  May,  Phil  Goebel,  Jr., 
and  the  Meyer  Bros.,  among  the  largest, 
will  again  supply  this  market  with  the 
leading  varieties.  All  say  that  a  good, 
soaking  rain  is  badly  needed. 

Allan  Humason,  representing  the 
Baedlein  Basket  Co.,  Chicago,  spent  a 
few  days  in  this  city  last  week  on  his 
way  westward.  Mr.  Humason  report* 
excellent  trade  in  his  line.

has  recently  been  receiving  large  ship- 
ments of  Shasta  daisies. 

Last  year  the  month  of  June  broke 
all  previous  records  for  licenses,  total- 
ing 1,300,  but  this  year  the  June  record 
is  1,500,  reports  Gus  Euede,  the  mar- 
riage license  clerk. 

The  trustees  of  the  Florists'  Club, 
Oscar  Buff,  Jules  Bourdet  and  W.  A. 
Eowe,  who  have  the  annual  florists '  pic- 
nic in  charge,  put  in  several  busy  days 
completing  the  arrangements  and  they 
say  that  Normandy  grove  never  looked 
better  than  it  does  this  year  and  that 
many  special  prizes  have  already  been 
given  by  members  of  the  trade.  So 
don't  forget  July  22.  The  wholesalers 
and  many  retailers  have  promised  to 
close  for  half  the  day,  so  that  all 
employees  will  be  able  to  attend.  Ar- 
thur Beyer's  jazz  band  has  been  en- 
gaged for  the  occasion.  More  interest 
is  displayed  this  year  than  ever  before 
and  it  promises  to  be  the  best  picnic 
ever  given.  J.  J-  B. 

PBOVIDENCE,  B.  I. 

The  month  of  June,  with  an  unusually 
large  number  of  weddings,  together 
with  a  more  active  demand  than  in 
several  years  past  on  graduation  work, 
gave  the  florists  and  growers  one  of  the 
best  months'  business  experienced.  In 
faft,  it  was  the  best  June  ever  reported. 

Frederick  Diet?  was  a  business  visitor 
in  New  York  last  week. 

Thomas  Curley  has  the  sympathy  of 
a  'arge  circle  of  friends  in  the  sudden 
death  of  his  wife,  June  25.  Many  of 
the  florists  of  the  city  sent  tribtites  to 
her  funeral.  Mr.  Curley  i^  preparing 
his  houses  for  rebenching  after  two 
seasons'  shutdown. 

M.  B.  Saunders  has  a  large  force  of 
men  on  outside  work. 

A  fishing  party,  consisting  of  Jack 
Johnston,  Page  Potter  and  Paul 
Brooner,  from  Johnston  Bros.,  returned 
last  week  from  a  trip,  of  which  they 
tell  some  good  stories. 

Fred  C.  Green  has  been  authorized  by 
the  Providence  city  council  to  attend 
the  annual  convention  of  the  Associa-

CLEVELAND     SCHOOL     GABDENS. 

The  interest  shown  in  school  garden- 
ing by  the  National  Association  of  Gar- 
deners, following  an  invitation  of  the 
school  garden  department  of  the  board 
of  education  of  Cleveland,  which  was 
extended  to  the  association  at  its  con- 
vention in  that  city  last  August,  to  co- 
operate with  it  in  the  development  of 
its  school  garden  movement,  has  re- 
sulted in  the  appointment  of  G.  H. 
Bring,  horticulturist  of  the  Missouri 
Botanical  Garden,  of  St.  Louis,  as  in- 
structor of  the  Cleveland  summer  school. 

The  National  Association  of  Garden- 
ers at  its  convention  appointed  a  com- 
mittee composed  of  Mr.  Bring,  Arthur 
Smith,  of  New  Jersey,  and  M.  C.  Ebel, 
of  New  York,  which,  after  surveying 
the  Cleveland  school  garden  work,  made 
recommendations  which  were  approved 
by  the  science  department  of  the  board 
of  education.  An  appropriation  of  $23,- 
000  was  made  by  the  city  for  promoting 
the  school  garden  work  during  1920. 
Thirty  school  garden  teachers  are  at- 
tending Mr.  Pring's  class  as  part  of 
their  regular  program.  The  remainder 
of  their  time  is  spent  in  visiting  chil- 
dren's home  gardens  and  supervising 
the  youngsters'  work  on  a  dozen  tracts. 
There  are  8,848  children  under  the  di- 
rection of  O.  M.  Eastman,  garden  su- 
pervisor.

CINCINNATI,  O. 


The  Market. 

Tlie  market,  as  a  whole,  last  week  was 
crowded  with  all  seasonable  stock. 
^VJiile  the  demand  was  excellent,  it  did 
,i,.t  consume  the  stock  daily  and  the. 
],(,.  e  refrigerators  held  much  after  the 
jiuuning's  sales  were  over.  The  retail- 
ers say  that  business  was  exceptionally 
goiid  for  this  time  of  the  year. 

Jlie  large  supply  that  came  in  daily 
ni;i  ie  it  necessary  to  cut  the  prices  be- 
low quotations  on  some  things.  Eoses 
w:  e  down  to  $3  per  hundred.  The  first 
on.  loor  gladioli  arrived  last  week  and 
so  1  for  a  price  as  good  as  for  indoor 
st(  I  k.  America,  Halley,  Mrs.  Francis 
Kii^£t  and  Chicago  White  are  the  lead- 
in;;  varieties  and  all  go  well,  owing  to 
th'  fact  that  there  is  not  an  abundance 
ytt,  Easter  lilies  are  more  plentiful 
lati'ly  and  bring  an  excellent  price.  Car- 
nations are  now  a  back  number,  as  the 
seiison  is  about  over  for  them, 

'There  was  a  large  demand  for  smilax 
an!  southern  asparagus  last  week  and 


it  can  be  attributed  to  the  large  num- 
ber of  weddings.  Shasta  daisies  are  ar- 
riving in  good  condition  and  sell  well, 
the  best  bringing  $2  per  hundred.  Corn- 
flowers, coreopsis  and  gaillardia  are  still 
hanging  on,  but  this  will  be  the  last 
week  for  them.  Valley  is  in  good  sup- 
ply and  cleans  up  well. 

Various  Notes.

go  from  there  to  the  S.  A.  F.  convention 
in  Cleveland,  where  they  will  meet  Mr. 
Gillett  and  wife  and  motor  home. 

Joseph  Beran  had  the  misfortune  of 
cashing  a  bogus  check  last  week. 

Eay  Murphy  has  received  word  from 
his  mother  and  two  sisters  that  they  ar- 


rived in  Los  Angeles.     They  are  going

LOS  ANGELES,  CAL. 


Tlie  Market. 

The  crop  of  June  weddings  is  on  the 
decline  and  little  but  funeral  work  is 
reported  by  retailers.  Stock  is  not  pil- 
ing up  much,  but  doubtless  more  could 
be  brought  in  by  the  growers  if  the  de- 
mand existed. 

Japanese  growers  of  carnations,  sweet 
peas  and  some  other  flowers  are  selling 
much  of  their  surplus  stock  in  temporary 
stores  erected  along  the  principal  boule- 
vards and  do  a  big  business,  in  some 
cases  in  conjunction  with  fruit,  veg- 
etables and  sundry  other  lines.  Un- 
doubtedly this  method  reaches  a  class  of 
trade  which  does  not  patronize  the  more 
fashionable  stores  and,  insofar  as  it 
helps  to  popularize  flowers,  does  some 
good,  beside  relieving  the  glut  in  the 
city. 

Eoses  are  still  of  poor  quality  only. 
Carnations  are  fair.  Asters  are  arriving 
more  plentifully  and  of  better  quality 
and  there  is  a  much  better  call  for  these 
flowers  from  out-of-town  points.  These, 
with  gladioli,  yellow  daisies  and  statice, 
are  among  the  best  flowers  to  ship  over 
the  long  stretches  of  desert  which  have 
to  be  covered  to  reach  some  of  the  princi- 
pal shipping  points  from  this  city; 
there  is  little  surplus  of  any  of  these 
flowers. 

There  is  a  demand  for  greens  of  good 
quality  for  shipping  that  is  never  filled, 
none  of  the  varieties  grown  or  collected 
filling  the  bill  in  all  respects.  The  Chi- 
nese honeysuckle  makes  a  pretty  green, 
which  is  especially  long  lasting,  but  it 
is  difficult  to  obtain  a  price  which  will 
recompense  growers  while  huckleberry 
can  be  sold  at  present  prices.  The 
young  growth  of  plumosus  does  not 
travel  well,  while  the  old  shoots  shatter 
at  this  season. 

There  is  little  doing  in  the  way  of 
plants  outside  of  a  few  ferns  and  palms. 

Various  Notes. 

A.  E.  Mauff,  of  the  Mauff  Floral  Co., 
Denver,  Colo.,  is  visiting  in  the  city  as  a 
guest  of  A.  Ecynolds. 

Graduation  work  has  caused  a  big 
rush  at  Eldred  's  Flower  Shop,  Pasadena, 
and,  beside  this,  June  weddings  and 
good  funeral  work  have  kept  everyone 
busy.  One  of  the  nicest  orders  was  for 
a  pall  of  pansies  and  valley,  a  beautiful 
combination  as  carried  out  in  this  case. 

W.  W.  Felgate,  of  Sierra  Madrc,  left 
for  San  Francisco  June  10  and  surprised 
his  friends  by  bringing  back  a  bride 
with  him  a  few  days  later.  Mr.  Felgate 
was  married  June  10  to  Mrs.  Frances 
Backus  in  the  northern  city.  He  is  well 
known  among  the  gardening  fraternity 
in  this  city  and  in  Pasadena,  having 
been  president  of  the  Crown  City  Hor- 
ticultural Society  for  two  years.  Every- 
one in  the  trade  wishes  them  the  great- 
est happiness. 

Articles  of  incorporation  have  been 
filed  for  the  J.  Dieterich  Nursery  Co.,  of 
Los  Angeles,  with  capital  stock  of  $100,- 
000.  The  board  of  directors  consists  of 
J.  Dieterich,  Emil  Brinkmeyer,  Paul  J. 
Staiger,  Edward  G.  Jesson  and  Herbert 
J.  Goudge.     The   corporation  has   been 


formed  to  take  over  the  greenhouses  and 
nursery  business  at  1142  Wall  street  and 
the  5-aere  nursery  at  Wintersburg  which 
J.  Dieterich  now  owns.  Mr.  Dieterich  'a 
interest  amounts  to  $51,000  and  the 
place  of  business  will  be  at  1142  Wall 
street.  The  company  will  develop  the 
nursery  at  Wintersburg,  buy  and  sell  nur- 
sery and  other  stock  and  generally  use 
the  power  given  in  the  incorporation 
papers,  which  were  filed  June  28.  Paul 
Staiger  brings  in  his  landscape  business 
and  will  be  active  in  the  new  corpora- 
tion. 

Allen's  Water  Gardens,  en  Vermont 
avenue,  are  always  attractive  and  just 
now  there  are  a  large  number  of  choice 
water  lilies  in  bloom,  as  well  as  a  great 
variety  of  irises,  saggitarias  and  other 
bog  and  water  plants.  Mr.  Allen  also 
makes  a  specialty  of  aquariums,  goldfish 
and  other  fish  of  many  varieties.  The 
place  will  always  repay  a  visit. 

John  A.  Bissinger,  of  Lansing,  Mich., 
visited  this  city  last  week. 

Frank  Lichtenberg  and  Mrs.  Lichten- 


berg  have  left  with  friends  for  a  vaca- 
tion driving  trip  northward,  intendin  r 
to  take  in  the  Yosemite  and  other  point  s 
of  interest  en  route.  Carl  Brose,  of  tl  .^ 
local  staff,  says  that  business  in  weddiii  j; 
decorations  lias  been  particularly  goo  . 

C.  Lewis  is  now  with  Paul  J.  Howaitiy 
on  West  Seventh  street. 

The  writer  fully  expected  to  git. 
through  without  mentioning  the  earth- 
quake, but  just  at  the  last  minute  in 
comes  H.  N.  Gage  to  say  that  the  foun- 
dation of  his  new  engine,  at  the  Downey 
establishment,  was  cracked  and  had 
to  be  replaced;  so  the  earthquake  was 
blamed  for  it.  So  "that's  that,"  as 
the  sporting  writers  say.

These   dried   flowers  are  excellent  for  floral  work.     They   often   prove  a  life-saver  when  stock  is  scarce. 
Send  for  a  small  assorted  box  as  a  sample.    You  will  come  back  for  more. 

J.  A.  AXELL,  Wholesale  Commission  Florist,  463  Bnsh  St.,  SAN  FRANCISCO,  CAL. 


shows  the  effect  of  the  summer  season. 
This  statement  applies  particularly  to 
roses,  carnations  and  other  flowers 
which  are  year-round  staples  and  not  at 
their  best  at  this  time  of  the  year.  The 
percentage  of  first-class  roses  is  light 
and  it  is  noted  that  the  better  grades 
clean  up  ahead  of  the  poorer  offerings, 
in  spite  of  wide  variance  in  prices.  This 
is  true  also  of  carnations;  many  people 
are  willing  to  pay  the  higher  prices  for 
good  flowers  at  the  better  stores,  in 
preference  to  taking  the  poorer  quality 
at  low  figures  from  the  street  venders. 

The  second  crop  of  gladioli  is  ready, 
but  there  is  a  large  percentage  of  poor 
flowers  among  the  daily  offerings.  Good 
sweet  peas  are  scarce,  as  the  height  of 
their  season  is  past.  There  are  barely 
enough  gardenias  and  orchids  to  supply 
the  demand.  A  feature  of  the  market 
is  the  great  variety  of  outdoor  summer 
flowers,  such  as  scabiosas,  gaillardias, 
coreopsis  and  marigolds. 

A  limited  supply  of  nice  dahlias  is

Various  Notes. 

Pelicano,  Rossi  &  Co.  secured  the  or- 
der for  bouquets  for  the  visitors  to  the 
Democratic  national  convention.  They 
made  6,000  of  these  in  three  days  and 
delivered  them  to  the  hotels  where  the 
visitors  were  staying.  The  order  about 
cleaned  up  the  supply  of  annual  summer 
flowers  and  several  extra  men  were  hired 
to  help  make  the  bouquets.  On  account 
of  lack  of  working  space  at  the  com- 
pany's store,  tables  at  two  or  three  of 
the  wholesale  places  were  pressed  into 
service.  This  order  caused  about  as 
much  flurry  in  the  local  market  as  any 
single  order  ever  did.  Friends  of  the 
Pelicanos  are  glad  to  learn  that  Mrs. 
Frank  Pelicano  is  recovering  nicely 
from  the  serious  operation  which  she  un- 
derwent a  few  days  ago. 

George  Wagner,  of  B.  M.  Joseph's, 
has  gone  back  to  St.  Louis,  Mo.,  to 
claim  Miss  Mayme  Lorenz  as  his  bride. 
They  were  to  be  married  July  7  and 
were  to  leave  immediately  for  San  Fran- 
cisco, where  Mr.  Wagner  will  resume  his 
duties  at  Joseph 's  and  the  young  couple 
will  make  their  future  home. 

The  florists  have  been  talking  for  a 
month  about  being  busy  with  weddings 
and  their  reports  are  well  founded,  ac- 
cording to  statistics  given  out  by  the 
county  clerk.  For  instance,  June  28  a 
total  of  fifty-five  marriage  licenses  were 
issued,  as  compared  with  thirty-nine  for

The  Florists^  Review 


Jolt  8,  1920 


L.  Montre  has  just  opened  a  store  at 
86  Carl  street.  It  is  understood  he  is 
new  in  the  business  and  will  start  on 
rather  a  small  scale,  with  the  idea  of 
gradual  expansion. 

H.  L.  Potter,  of  the  Potter  Floral  Co., 
El  Paso,  Tex.,  paid  his  respects  to  the 
local  trade  when  passing  through  San 
Francisco  on  his  way  back  from  the 
Shriners '  convention  in  Portland,  Ore. 

C.  Kooyman  is  accumulating  a  large 
supply  of  strawflowers  for  shipment  to 
the  eastern  markets  later  in  the  year. 
He  has  the  flowers  suspended  in  bunches 
from  the  ceiling  of  his  store  to  dry,  and 
in  that  position  they  have  the  effect  of 
an  unusual  and  attractive  decoration. 
Five  or  six  different  varieties  of  the 
flowers  are  included  in  his  collection. 
Although  he  has  not  started  to  ship 
these  generally  as  yet,  he  made  a  fine 
shipment  to  Philadelphia  a  few  days 
ago. 

Other  local  wholesale  florists  are  also 
laying  in  a  supply  of  strawflowers.  J. 
A.  Axell  has  his  basement  full  of  them. 
He  is  inclined  to  keep  them  out  of  sight, 
so  as  not  to  have  passers-by  coming  in 
and  wanting  to  buy  a  bunch  or  two. 

Henry  Avansino,  manager  of  the 
wholesale  warerooms  of  the  E.  W.  Mc- 
Lellan  Co.,  says  more  high-grade  roses 
could  be  disposed  of  without  difliculty. 
He  calls  attention  to  the  fact  that  roses 
can  be  easily  grown  in  this  climate  the 
year  around  and  he  thinks  more  good 
stock  should  be  offered  in  summer.  To 
help  supply  the  demand,  the  E.  W.  Mc- 
Lellan  Co.  is  running  some  of  its  houses 
right  along  and  will  probably  keep  more 
of  them  going  during  the  summer  in  fu- 
ture years  than  heretofore,  according  to 
Mr.  Avansino. 

P.  F.  Eosaia,  of  Rosaia  Bros.,  Seattle, 
Wash.,  has  been  visiting  in  San  Fran- 
cisco. His  brother,  Peter,  is  with  Peli- 
cano,  Rossi  &  Co.,  in  this  city.  Their 
father  recently  sold  out  his  nursery  at 
Colma,  Cal. 

A  visitor  from  across  the  continent 
was  George  C.  Shaffer,  of  Washington, 
D.  C.  While  in  town  he  called  at  sev- 
eral of  the  downtown  stores  and  made 
the  acquaintance  of  the  proprietors.

PORTLAND,  ORE. 


Rose  Festival. 

On  account  of  the  Portland  rose  fes- 
tival and  the  National  Mystic  Shrine 
convention  last  week,  there  was  a  de- 
mand for  everything  in  the  shape  of 
flowers.  There  were  great  quantities  of 
flowers  sent  in  from  every  corner  of  the 
city  and  state,  which  met  all  require- 
ments. 

Never  in  the  history  of  Portland  have 
such  gorgeous  decorations  been  made. 
The  florists  and  growers  of  this  section 
deserve  a  great  deal  of  credit  for  the 
preparations  they  made  to  take  care  of 
such  a  volume  of  business. 

A  great  many  of  the  vehicles  in  the 
floral  parade  were  decorated  by  profes- 
sionals from  the  flower  shops.  Smith's 
Flower  Shop  decorators  captured  five 
prizes,  the  B.  P.  O.  E.  car,  the  Waverly 
Baby  Home  car,  the  Rotary  Club  car  and 
a  car  entered  by  Mrs.  Walter  Honey- 
man. 

The  grand  special  prize  was  won  by 
the  decorations  made  by  E.  J.  Nausa, 
of  Smith's  Flower  Shop.  The  car  was 
owned  and  entered  bv  Mrs.  Sweenev,  of 
Victoria,  B.  C.  '

Delphinium  (Everblooming  Hardy  Larkspur)  BELLADONNA  SEMI-PLENA 

A  semi-double  turquoise  blue  flower  of  the  original  Belladonna,  giving  it  thereby  the  larger  bloom  and  more

double  carmine-rose  flowers.  The  intense  color  shows  up  well  when  cut  and  makes  a  very  brilliant  bit  of 
color  in  a  bed  or  border.       ...  Trade  pkt., 

Sweet  Peas,  CALIF.  MARATHON  SPENCERS 

This  new  race  differs  from  all  other  Sweet  Peas  in  size  of  bloom,  number  of  blooms  to  a  stem  and  remark- 
able extra  long  season  of  blooming.  This  mixture  is  only  the  forerunner  of  what  we  predict  to  become  one

Kose  Ceremony. 

The  following  article  was  printed  in 
one  of  the  local  newspapers  recently: 


"The  ceremony  of  dedicating  and 
naming  new  roses  which  took  place  at 
Peninsula  park  proved  such  a  pleasing 
feature  of  the  rose  festival  week  that  it 
is  likely  to  be  incorporated  each  year  in 
the  festivities. 

"Jesse  A.  Currey,  Pacific  coast  direc- 
tor of  the  American  Rose  Society  and 
originator  of  the  plan  of  dedicating  and 
naming  roses,  has  notified  the  Royal 
Rosarians  that  he  will  immediately  get 
in  touch  with  the  rose  growers  through- 
out the  world  and  secure  their  consent 
to  have  at  least  one  of  their  new  roses 
named  each  year  in  Portland.  The  Ro- 
sarians are  enthusiastic  for  the  event.

Wednesday,  July  14,  flower  shops  will 
be  closed  all  day  on  account  of  the  an- 
nual picnic,  which  will  be  held  at  Dodge 
park,  on  the  Sandy  and  Bull  Run  rivers. 
Those  who  attend  will  take  a  basket 
lunch.  Coffee  and  ice  cream  will  be  fur-

The  Market. 

The  effects  of  the  late  spring  and 
rains  are  to  be  seen  in  the  recent  ar- 
rivals and  in  the  fine  quality  of  the  out- 
door flowers.  The  stock  is  exception- 
ally good  for  this  time  of  the  year. 
Carnations  have  been  falling  off,  due  to 
growers  replanting  for  fall.  There  will 
be  as  heavy  planting  for  this  fall  as 
heretofore.  Most  of  the  growers  report 
good  success  with  their  carnations  this 
last  season.  Spokane  growers  are  be- 
tween seasons  and  their  shipments  of 
Laddie  have  been  falling  off  in  volume. 
The  current  deliveries  are  the  best  that 
have  been  seen  this  year  as  to  color 
and  make  a  splendid  showing  as  to 
stems.

for  several  months,  but  the  stock  on 
hand  was  not  overheavy  and  there  was 
no  need  for  slashing  in  prices.  The 
outdoor  roses  are  arriving.  Ophelia, 
Ward  and  Columbia  lead  sales  in  the 
larger  roses,  while  Brunner  is  now 
plentiful  and  in  good  demand.  Killar- 
ney  roses  are  also  in  larger  supply. 
Violets  are  scarce  and  hard  to  find. 

Peonies  are  still  leaders  and  the  prices 
have  been  splendidly  maintained.  The 
double  peonies  are  most  in  demand,  but 
single  varieties  have  been  used  in  win- 
dow decorations  to  good  effect.  Water 
lilies  are  also  being  used  in  window 
decorations. 

Gladioli  continue  to  sell  well  and  are 
being  used  in  combination  with  Canton 
bluebells  and  snapdragons  for  baskets. 
Mrs.  Francis  King  is  still  the  favorite, 
but  the  smaller  pink  stock  is  also  a  good 
seller.  The  supply  of  Spanish  iris  has 
been  decreasing  somewhat  during  the 
last  week,  but  the  supply  of  large  purple 
iris  has  increased  so  that  there  has  been 
plenty  of  these  flowers  on  hand. 

Delphinium  and  gypsophila  have  been 
freely  used  in  the  less  expensive  cut 
flower  combinations.  Larkspur  and 
bachelor's  buttons  have  been  good  sel- 
lers in  the  miscellaneous  list. 

There  is  not  much  call  for  potted 
stock.     Geraniums  and  calceolarias  are

in  our  Correspondence  School  has  de- 
veloped the  fact  that  Florists  are  awak-

scape Architecture  and  Gardenhig.  Let 
us  tell  you  how  you  can  start  a  complete, 
well  equipped  department  to  handle  this 
business.

RETAIL  STORE  MANAGEMENT 

WHAT  THE  LEADERS  IN  THE  TRADE  ARE  DOING 


BEGINNING   IN   BUSINESS. 


Four  Roads  to  Retailing. 

The  value  of  a  good  beginniug  is 
proverbial.  When  a  retailer  has  once 
set  out,  methods  and  equipment  may 
still  to  some  extent  be  changed  and 
advertising  may  give  a  fresh  start,  but 
the  foundation  is  laid  at  the  beginning 
and  the  whole  structure  of  the  later 
business  rests  on  that  beginning.  There 
are  four  ways  of  entering  into  business 
as  a  retailer.  You  may  buy  an  interest 
in  an  established  store.  You  may  buy 
an  established  store.  You  may  buy  the 
fixtures  of  a  closed  store  and  either 
move  them  to  a  new  location  or  reopen 
the  existing  store.  You  may  start  a 
new  store.  Which  method  is  adopted 
depends  largely  upon  local  conditions 
and  upon  the  capital,  experience  and 
ability  of  the  person. 

Sizing  Up  Your  Prospect. 

If  you  are  thinking  of  acquiring  en- 
tire or,  by  partnership,  partial  owner- 
ship of  a  running  business,  it  will,  of 
course,  be  much  easier  to  determine  the 
advisability  of  the  step  than  if  you  are 
going  to  reopen  a  closed  store  or  start 
a  new  one.  Among  the  first  questions 
to  be  asked  about  it  are  those  concerned 
with  its  location  and  its  present  trade. 
How  long  has  the  store  been  in  the 
present  location  and  how  long  has  the 
jiresent  proprietor  owned  the  store? 
Are  the  majority  of  the  store's  custom- 
ers transient  or  regular?  What  pro- 
))(>rtion  are  local  and  what  telephone? 
How  many  of  the  store 's  customers 
•pass  the  store  each  day?  What  is  the 
approximate  total  number  of  customers 
in  the  locality?  Is  the  bulk  of  the 
trade  due  to  the  proximity  of  resi- 
dences, or  of  special  institutions,  such 
as  hosjiitals,  cemeteries,  hotels  and  rail- 
road stations?  If  you  plan  to  live  in 
the  same  building  with  the  store  or 
near  it,  is  the  neighborhood  a  desirable 
one  for  your  family? 

Are  There  Any  Strings  to  It? 

Coming  to  the  store  itself,  the  pro- 
prietor's reason  for  selling  is  naturally 
significant;  the  advertisers  in  the  Want 
and  For  Sale  department  of  The  Review 
show  that  they  recognize  that  by  fre- 
quently inserting  a  phrase  in  their  For 
Sale  advertisements  stating  their  rea- 
son for  selling.  In  examining  a  new 
proposition,  the  prospective  buyer 
should  find  out  in  detail,  not  only  why 
the  proprietor  wants  to  sell,  but  how 
he  figures  his  selling  price.  Who  took 
the  inventory  and  when?  It  may  be 
well  to  have  a  new  inventory  taken  by 
disinterested  examiners.  How  old  are 
the  fixtures?  What  was  their  cost  and 
what  is  their  dejireeiation?  Are  they 
sufficiently  modern  and  in  good  condi- 
tion? Both  the  refrigerator  itself  and 
the  method  of  cooling  should  be  given 
careful  attention. 

Find  out,  too,  what  the  assessed  valu- 
ation of  the  store  is  and  whether  it  has 


increased  or  decreased  during  the  last 
five  years.  Is  the  title  clear?  If  there 
is  a  mortgage,  who  holds  it?  Are  you  to 
assume  any  bills  payable?  If  so,  have 
them  carefully  listed  and  bind  yourself 
no  further.  If  you  accept  bills  receiv- 
able as  value  received,  have  a  local  col- 
lection agency  or  auditor  appraise  their 
value.  Find  out  from  the  wholesale 
houses  with  which  the  store  has  been 
doing  business  the  volume  of  its  pur- 
chases. Is  the  store  fully  covered  by 
insurance  transferable  to  you?  Does 
purchase  of  the  store  entail  transfer  of 
contracts  for  gas,  electricity,  water, 
service,  etc.?  What  other  contracts  do 
you  assume? 

You   should   know  whether  the   store 
holds  a  lease.     If  so,  is  it  transferable? 


Every  Florist 

Has  hit  upon  Ideas 

that  have  made  Money 

for  Him.   The  Spread 

of  such  ideas  through 

the  Trade  makes  Progress. 


'mBf 


Is  the  medium  for  spreading  those 
money-making  ideas.  Tell  the  trade 
about  yours.  Contributions  on  any 
subject  relating  to  the  trade  are 
always  welcomed  by  the  Editor. 

The  way  tlicy  are  written  is  not  so 
iinpoHant  as  the  lileas  they  convey. 
WrUe  as  you  would  talk. 


Is  it  renewable?  When  does  it  expire? 
Is  the  building  mortgaged?  In  renting 
a  store,  have  it  clearly  understood  with 
the  landlord  who  is  to  make  any  needed 
alterations. 

Other  important  points  to  be  consid- 
ered are  the  store's  reputation  with  the 
public  and  its  relations  with  its  present 
employees.  Is  the  legal  good  will  real 
and  transferable?  Has  the  store  been 
generally  well  managed?  What  is  its 
credit?  What  is  the  overhead?  What 
wages  are  jiaid?  Will  the  members  of 
the  present  working  force  remain  in 
your  service?  Under  the  present  man- 
agement, what  have  been  the  net  profits 
during  the  last  five  years?  Is  the  busi- 
ness largely  cash  or  charge? 

When  the  examination  has  been 
brought  to  a  favorable  conclusion,  a 
competent  attorney  should  be  employed 
to  insure  a  safe  passage  through  the 
legal  intricacies  of  the  transaction.  An 
attempt  to  economize  here  may  prove 
disastrous  later. 

If  you  are  going  to  open  a  new  store, 
y(jur  plans  will  need  to  undergo  much 
the  same  scrutiny  as  that  suggested  for 


the  going  concern  that  was  to  be  pur- 
chased. The  first  question  to  consider, 
however,  is  the  amount  of  capital  you 
have,  for  upon  this  will  depend  the  lo- 
cation, the  class  of  fixtures  and  equip- 
ment you  put  in  and  the  elaborateness 
with  which  you  stock  up  at  first.  Re- 
gardless of  the  total  capital  to  be  used 
in  starting,  a  sound  proportion  on 
which  to  figure  is  stated  to  be  five-sixths 
for  stock,  fixtures,  etc.,  and  one-sixth 
for  working  capital,  with  debts  limited 
to  twenty  per  cent  of  the  total  capital. 

The  New  Store  and  Its  Capital. 

For  the  new  undertaking,  the  loca- 
tion must  be  examined  with  particular 
care,  since  its  value  can  be  less  directly 
estimated  than  in  the  case  of  the  estab- 
lished store.  In  a  large  city  or  place 
of  much  business,  the  other  flower  stores 
in  that  locality  may  indicate  the  gen- 
eral nature  of  the  demand,  but  they 
will  also  raise  the  question  as  to  whether 
that  neighborhood  can  support  an  addi- 
tional store.  Notice  the  reasons  for  the 
success  or  failure  of  those  stores,  past 
and  present.  What  is  the  distance  to 
the  nearest  store  in  each  direction? 
Does  it  seem  probable  that  telephone 
business  can  be  developed  enough  to 
counteract  the  possible  dangers  from 
competition  in  local  trade?  Is  the 
neighborhood  changing  in  character  in 
a  way  to  diminish  the  local  demand  for 
flowers  or  to  make  this  particular  type 
of  store  out-of-place  and  unprofitable? 
What  is  the  social  character  of  the 
neighborhood  in  its  bearing  on  the  use 
of  flowers  and  what  is  the  earning  ca- 
pacity of  the  people  living  there?  Arc 
the  people  50-cent  or  $.5  buyers?  It  is 
also  well  to  note  what  line  of  business 
occupied  the  store  room  previously  or  is 
there  at  present  and  to  find  out  why 
that  business  has  seen  fit  to  move. 

If  the  store  is  to  be  rented,  is  the 
rental  in  proportion  to  the  probable 
volume  of  business?  It  has  been  esti- 
mated that  under  average  conditions,  in 
communities  of  from  2.'5,000  to  100,000 
population,  the  rent  should  run  from  two 
to  three  per  cent  of  gross  sales;  in 
places  having  a  population  less  than 
25,000  it  should  be  one  to  two  per  cent, 
and  in  cities  over  100,000  it  should  be 
between  three  and  six  per  cent. 

Windows  That  Win. 

In  starting  a  new  enterprise,  even 
more  than  in  purchasing  a  running  busi- 
ness, the  store  room  or  building  must 
pass  a  careful  examination.  The  store 
with  the  step  up  or  the  step  down  should 
be  avoided  and  in  every  other  way  the 
coming  of  customers  into  the  store 
should  be  facilitated.  The  show  win- 
dows, if  they  are  to  speak  effectively 
to  the  passer-by,  must  be  of  adequate 
size  and  should  be  equipped  with  enough 
plugs  for  both  the  lighting  and  the  elec 
trie  fan  which  will  be  needed  in  winter 
to  keep  frost  from  forming  on  the  in 
side  of  the  windows.  The  question  of 
lighting  the  show  window  has  been 
given    detailed    treatment    in    this    de-

partment  in  previous  issues  of  The  Re- 
view. One  factor  in  the  show-window 
problem  which  is  concerned  with  the 
location  of  the  store  is  the  desirability 
of  having  the  windows  on  the  shady  side 
of  the  street.  In  summer,  people  prefer 
to  walk  on  the  shady  side  and  conse- 
quently the  windows  will  have  a  larger 
audience.  Also,  the  flowers  and  plants 
displayed  in  the  windows  will  keep 
longer  in  the  same  condition,  if  out  of 
the  sun;  thus  the  flowers  will  last  longer 
in  the  display  and  the  plants  will  give 
the  purchaser  longer  service.  A  third 
reason  for  having  the  show  windows 
in  the  shade  is  that,  in  strong  sunlight, 
the  windows  act  to  some  extent  like 
mirrors  and  the  displays  behind  them 
cannot   make  so  striking  an  effect. 

Make  Store  Do  Selling. 

Unless  the  interior  of  the  store  is  al- 
ready in  excellent  condition,  it  will 
probably  be  necessary  to  refinish  it, 
choosing  some  tint  or  combination  of 
tints  which  will  make  a  pleasing  im- 
pression on  the  customers  and  provide 
a  proper  background  for  displays.  If 
a  new  refrigerator  is  to  be  installed,  the 
order  for  it  can  specify  a  style  and  color 
which  will  harmonize  with  the  general 
scheme  for  the  interior.  This  harmony 
should  include,  not  only  the  refrigerator 
and  the  interior  of  the  store,  but  also 
the  exterior  and  the  public's  approach, 
insofar  as  such  cooperation  of  style  can 
be  secured  to  make  a  selling  impression 
on  the  possible  customer  from  the  time 
when  he  first  learns  of  the  store  until 
he   actually   makes   his   purchase.     The

Turning  the  By-Product 
Into  the  Main  One 


Most  of  us  don't  know  in  what  part  of  our  business 
the  most  money  mostly  lies. 

We  do  know  that  our  sales  on  some  certain  thing 
are  largest. 

That  only  shows  what  sells  the  most. 
It  doesn't  show  up  the  thing  that  sells  the  least, 
but  which  could  be  made  to  sell  the   most,  and 
make   the  most  out  of. 

Two  things  can  show  that  up. 
One,  an  accident. 
The  other,  yourself. 

Next  week  will  prove  it  to   you  with  a  piece  of 
.blotting  paper. 

Which  paper  may,  or  may  not,  have  much  to  do 
with  F.  T.  D.  orders;  but  you  must  admit  it  is 
at  least  a  very  absorbing  subject.

store's  scheme  of  interior  decoration, 
its  tone,  its  whole  campaign  to  make 
that  selling  impression,  should  be  care- 
fully adapted  to  the  class  of  people  to 
which  it  expects  to  appeal.  Part  of  this 
appeal  may  be  made  through  a  large, 
electrically  illuminated  sign,  which 
should  be  carefully  designed  to  make  a 
distinctive    impression    and     to    be    as 


noticeable  by  day  as  when  illuminated 
at  night  and  should  be  hung  in  a  com- 
manding position.  In  planning  the  in- 
terior of  the  store,  the  great  importance 
of  the  lighting  system  should  be  remem- 
bered, especially  in  its  relation  to  the 
color  and  prominence  of  the  displays 
and  in  its  restful  or  irritating  effect  on 
those   in   the   store.      A   restful   light  ia

Business  Insurance. 

Among  your  furnishings,  as  a  pro- 
tection to  yourself  and  an  assurance  of 
amicable  relations  between  yourself  and 
your  customers,  as  well  as  with  your 
wholesaler  and  your  banker,  a  modern 
and  complete  receipt-printing  cash  reg- 
ister  will   be   practically   indispensable. 

Finally,  when  your  jdans  are  all  made 
and  your  store  is  ready,  with  fixtures 
installed,  take  out  maximum  insurance. 
You  have  been  planning  in  order  to 
insure  against  lack  of  business;  do  not 
neglect  to  insure  against  loss  of  all  that 
with  which  vou  will  do  business.

"Indian  Village  Greenhouses  sounds 
somewhat  romantic  in  this  prosaic 
age,"  observed  George  Doemling,  "and 
we  shall  change  the  name  when  our 
new  store  is  ready,  which  will  be  the 
best  in  its  class,  with  P.  J.  Murphy, 
formerly  with  the  Barr  Floral  Co.,  at 
Lancaster,  Pa.,  as  manager.  No,  I  am 
not  an  expert  at  the  business,"  con- 
tinued Mr.  Doemling,  "but  attribute 
our  success  to  practical  application.  My 
venture  in  the  manufacture  of  rockers 
was  a  rocky  one,  as  during  the  period 
of  the  war  we  struck  a  rock,  but  landed 
on  mother  earth  and  intend  to  stay  right 
here,  having  found  it  both  pleasant  and 
profitable."  Charles  Kirkpatrick  has 
charge  of  the  greenhouses  and  produces 
the  quality  and  quantity  of  stock  neces- 
sary for  an  up-to-date  retail  business. 

"I  remember  the  time,"  observed 
Joseph  Streit,  "when  I  was  grower  for 
S.  A.  Anderson,  at  Buflfalo,  N.  Y.,  when 
if  one-third  of  what  is  grown  now  in 
the  shape  of  pot  plants  was  produced,

may  rest  upon  him. 

John  Breitmeyer's  Sons'  store  has  a 
most  inviting  appearance  during  these

trates this.  During  this  visit  a  young 
lady  looked  in  and,  announcing  that 
she  was  to  be  married  the  next  day, 
desired  the  advice  of  Mr.  Dunn  as  to 
the  nature  and  style  of  her  bouquet,  etc., 
and  the  cool,  professional  manner  in 
which  Mr.  Dunn  handled  the  delicate 
and  important  subject  was  a  delight  to 
witness.

should   make   a   subscription   of   $50   to 
the  national  publicity  campaign. 

Several  interesting  subjects  were 
spoiven  on.  C.  E.  Guntoii  spoke  on 
rose  growing  and  John  Espy  on  carna- 
tion culture,  while  William  G.  Jones 
told  of  growing  vegetable  plants,  par- 
ticularly  cauliflower    and    peppers. 

The  meeting  was  voted  to  be  the  best 
ever  held  and  T.  J.  Nolan  said  that  he 
had  come  400  miles  to  attend  it  and 
if  there  was  another  in  the  next  week 
he  would  do  the  same  again.  The  next 
meeting  will  be  held  at  Kane,  Pa.,  with 
Oscar   Magnuson,   November   6.

The  Market. 

The  busj-  season  is  about  over,  as 
outdoor  flowers  are  becoming  more 
abundant  daily  and  counter  sales  are 
correspondingly  decreasing.  Commence- 
ment exercises  kept  cut  flowers  moving 
during  June,  although  not  so  many  liou- 
quets  were  sold  as  in  former  years.  Tlic 
]>ractice  of  sending  bouquets  and  l)as- 
kets  to  the  graduation  exercises  is  be- 
ing discouraged.  A  number  of  small 
weddings  are  taking  ])lace  daily  and 
most  of  these  call  for  some  decorations, 
as  well  as  bouquets.  Funeral  orders  are 
also  numerous  and  a  number  of  large 
designs  were  called  for  recently. 

In  spite  of  the  fact  that  July  is  here, 
carnations  are  still  in  good  condition, 
although  they  are  getting  small.  Out- 
door stock  is  plentiful.  Roses  are  in 
good  supply.  Red  ramblers  are  just 
beginning  to  bloom,  although  the  pink 
ones  are  not  out  yet,  owing  to  the  late- 
ness of  the  season.  Vegetable  gardens 
and  everything  in  the  plant  line  show 
the  effects  of  the  late,  cold  spring.  Bed- 
ding plants  are  usually  entirely  dis- 
])osed  of  by  this  time  in  the  year,  but 
the  work  of  setting  them  out  is  still 
going  on.

The  Market. 

The  market  last  week  was  good  for 
this  season  of  the  year.  Commence- 
ments were  about  over,  but  weddings 
kei>t  up.  There  were  more  weddings  re- 
ported last  month  than  any  other  month 
in  the  history  of  the  business.  These 
weddings  were  noticeable  to  the  florists, 
because  of  the  fact  that  they  were  much 
better  than  usual  from  a  floral  stand- 
]ioiiit.  Valley  ^\'as  in  big  demand,  but  in

and  high  price  to  be  contended  with, 
but,  owing  to  the  uncertainty  of  trans- 
portation, it  was  almost  impossible  to 
guarantee  it.  Swainsona  and  white

their  price  sonring.  Several  large  fu- 
nerals on  top  of  all  the  wedding  work 
kept  the  market  pretty  well  cleaned  up 
on  all  first-class  stock. 

There  is  the  usual  supply  of  inferior 
stock;  sometimes  it  can  be  sold,  but 
more  often  it  goes  to  waste.  Easter 
lilies  were  in  fine  supply  during  the  last 
two  weeks  in  June  and  w-ere  of  a  qual- 
ity that  was  a  credit  to  those  who  grew 
them.  Although  the  supply  was  large, 
I  did  not  hear  of  an  instance  of  one  go- 
ing to  waste.  They  were  used  freely  in 
funeral  work  and  wedding  decorations. 
Oreen  goods,  which  were  so  scarce  a 
short  time  ago,  have  made  a  splendid  re- 
covery and  plenty  are  now  to  be  had. 
There  is  a  fair  supply  of  all  miscellane- 
ous stock.  Now  that  all  special  flower 
occasions  are  over,  we  may  look  for  a 
dull  season,  but  there  are  those  opti-

A  Notable  Wedding. 

Tuesday  evening,  June  29,  Mabel 
Leach,  the  youngest  daughter  of  Robert 
L.  Graham,  was  married  to  Benjaniin 
Kastncr.  From  the  beginning  to  the 
end,  this  was  distinctly  a  floral  wedding. 
The  service  was  performed  in  the 
Waverly  Presbyterian  church  by  the 
Rev.  A.  H.  Neiley.  The  decorations 
were  in  three  distinct  classes,  eacli  of 
which  was  looked  after  by  a  member  of 
the  family,  and  that  one  endeavored  to 
outdo  the  other  was  evident.  Miss  Mar- 
garet Graham  had  charge  of  the  bridal 
party  and  her  handiwork  was  not  only 
commented  upon  by  the  public,  Init  by 
the  many  florist  friends  of  the  family 
who  were  present.  Tlie  bride  carried  a 
shower  bouquet  of  lily  of  the  valley 
and  orchids  and  wore  a  wreath  of  real 
orange  blossoms.  The  valley  was 
bought  in  New  York  and  delivered  by 
special  messenger. 

There   were   four  bridesmaids.     Thev

wore  leghorn  hats  that  were  trimmed 
with  natural  cattleyas  and  yellow 
daisies  and  carried  shower  bouquets  of 
the  same  flowers.  Little  Miss  Margaret 
Kastner  was  flower  girl  and  she  carried 
a  leghorn  hat  on  her  arm  by  the  ribbons, 
filled  with  daisies.  The  church  was  as 
pretty  a  piece  of  floral  work  as  I  have 
ever  seen.  The  pulpit  was  a  mass  of 
ferns,  palms  and  Easter  lilies;  indeed, 
it  would  have  done  well  for  an  Easter 
decoration.  The  windows  were  banked 
with  crimson  ramblers  and  field  daisies. 
The  whole  job  was  one  that  Robert,  Jr., 
might  be  proud  of. 

The  part  taken  care  of  by  Robert,  Sr., 
was  the  liome.  There  were  flowers  in 
every  conceivable  j)lace  and  a  glance 
was  all  that  was  needed  to  see  that  they 
were  arranged  by  a  master  hand.  It 
was  a  hot  night  and  the  lawn  about  the 
house  was  arranged  as  a  .Japanese  gar- 
den and  the  reception  was  held  there. 
Anyone  who  had  not  been  at  the  church 
would  have  thought  it  a  florists'  re- 
union; every  where  ho  would  turn  he 
would  meet  some  old  friend  of  the  craft. 

Various  Notes. 

William  F.  Ekas  has  taken  over  his 
new  dutie.s  as  manager  of  the  Balti-

Mr.  Ekas  has  a  number  of  new  ideas 
that  he  feels  are  going  to  prove  win- 
ners in  the  wholesale  field  next  winter.

MOBILE,  ALA. 


The  Market. 

Trade  in  Mobile  has  been  exceedingly 
good  this  spring,  far  ahead  of  previous 
seasons.  The  demand  for  cut  flowers 
has  been  strong  and  prices  good.  Ho'^os 
are  received  in  first-class  condition.  Co- 
lumbia   is   the    leader. 

The    demand    created    by    June    wed- 
'dings  has  been  excellent,  far  above  ex- 
pectations.    Telegraph  business  also  has 
been    excellent.      Graduating    exercises, 
over  now,  called  for  many  bouquets. 

Plant  sales  this  season  brolvc  all  rec- 
ords. Geraniums,  ferns,  coleus,  salvias 
and  other  bedding  stock  all  were  in  de- 
mand.

business.  One  day  they  had  nine  wed- 
ding orders.  The  orders  for  graduating 
exercises  at  local  schools  amounted  to 
large  totals. 

Fred  Eavier  was  arrested  twice,  once 
on  Easter  Sunday  and  once  on  Mothers' 
day,  for  violating  the  Sunday  closing 
ordinance.  The  city  recorder  stated 
that  the  ordinance  was  discriminatory, 
but  withheld  decision.  So  defendant 
appealed  to  the  Circuit  court  and  was 
found  not  guilty  in  a  jury  trial  for  his 
first  offense,  the  judge  stating  that  the 
ordinance  was  class  legislation. 


BRITISH  CARNATION  GROWERS. 


Rapid  Rise  of  Allwood  Bros. 

One  of  the  best  known  firms  of  car- 
nation growers  in  Great  Britain  is  All- 
wood  Bros.  About  ten  years  ago  they 
commenced  business  as  carnation  spe- 
cialists by  renting  four  greenhouses  at 
Wivclsfield,  Ilaywards  Heath,  Sussex. 
Now  they  have  a  large  range  on  the 
opposite  side  of  the  road,  where  there 
are  twenty-three  houses,  the  larger  ones 
being  55x250  feet,  each  filled  with  20,- 
000  plants,  producing  an  aggregate  of 
200,000  blooms  in  a  season.  The  latest 
addition  of  new  glass  consists  of  nine 
smaller  houses  for  the  propagation  and 
cultivation  of  young  stock.  Besides  this 
establishment,  the  brothers  have  taken 
over  a  range  at  Plumpton.  and  this  they

are  devotinp  to  the  cultivation  of  their 
new  race  of  perpetual  pinks,  Dianthus 
Alhvoodii.  Two  of  the  tliree  brothers, 
with  modest  assistance,  managed  the 
business  at  the  outset;  now  the  em- 
jjloyees  are  about  120  in  number. 

New  Varieties. 

Montague  Allwood  has  made  large 
numljiTR  of  crosses  ])etween  species  of 
dianthus,  between  carnations  and  pinks, 
and  between  pinks  or  carnations  and 
sjiecies  of  dianthus. 

Lilve  all  other  raisers  of  new  plants. 
yir.  Allwood  has  experienced  many  dis- 
ajipointments,  but  his  many  successes 
have  encouraged  him  to  continue. 
^Vivelsfield  White,  Wivelsfield  lk>auty, 
Wivelsfield  Claret,  Apricot,  Destiny  and 
Mary  Allwood  were  all  raised  by  him 
and  they  are  all  popular  varieties  of 
the  perpetual-flowering  race  in  Eng- 
land. Allwood  Bros,  grow  them  exten- 
sively for  cut  flowers,  together  with 
Beacon,  F^nchantress  Supreme,  AVhite 
Knchantress,  Salmon  Enchantress  and  a 
scarlet  seedling  of  their  own  raising. 

Jessie  Allwood  is  a  perpetual  mal- 
maison  variety,  with  large,  handsome 
flowers  of  light  yellow  color.  It  was 
raised  at  Wivelsfield,  as  the  name  sug- 
gests. To  the  credit  of  the  firm  must 
also  be  placed  several  perpetual-flow- 
ering border  carnations,  of  which  the 
light  yellow  Roslyn  is  a  good  example. 

Probably  nothing  Allwood  Bros,  have 
raised  has  taken  the  popular  fancy  so 
(|uickly  as  the  new  race  of  perpetual 
jiinks  dignified  by  the  name  of  Dianthus 
Alhvoodii  and  for  which  the  firm  re- 
ceived a  certificate  of  appreciation  from 
the  Royal  Horticultural  Society.  The 
race  is  of  hybrid  origin  and  was  obtained 
by  fertili7,ing  flowers  of  the  old-fash- 
ioned garden  jiinks  with  pollen  of  per-

Seed  Trade  News 


AMERICAN    SEED    TRADE    ASSOCIATION. 

I'resUU'iit,  II.  U.  Hustings,  Atlanta,  Ga.; 
si'(refarj--troasiiri'r,   C,    E.    Kendol,    Cleveland,   O. 

W.  W.  Barnard,  the  Chicago  seedsman, 
celebrated  his  sixty-fourth  birthday  an- 
niversary July  4. 

Keports  from  California  are  to  the 
effect  that  some  of  the  fields  of  freesias 
have  been  abandoned — not  worth  the  labor 
of  digging. 

EozELL  J,  BowEN,  of  J.  Bolgiano  & 
Son,  Baltimore,  Md.,  and  C.  Alfred  Bol- 
giano, eldest  son  of  Charles  J.  Bolgiano, 
are  traveling  in  Europe,  inspecting  the 
growing  crops  in  England,  France,  Ger- 
many, Holland  and  Belgium.  Their  stay 
will  cover  a  period  of  several  months. 

It  was  the  late  Patrick  O'Mara  who 
ventured  the  opinion,  at  the  close  of  the 
lf!17  seed  season,  tiiat  tlie  seed  business 
of  that  year  would  stand  as  a  record  un- 
til either  a  material  increase  in  immi- 
gration or  a  period  of  hard  times  made 
large  numbers  of  people  in  the  United 
States  willing  to  work   at  gardening. 

A("roRDixG  to  a  recent  rej;ort  from  a 
Dutch  seed  growers'  association,  the  trade 
in  field  and  vegetable  seeds  was  dull  this 
season.  The  repeal  of  the  governmental 
and  food  controlling  measures,  the  high 
rate  of  exchange  of  Dutch  currency  as 
compared  with  that  of  other  countries  and 
a  smaller  home  demand  were  some  of  the 
factors  that  contributed  to  the  dullness  of 
the  seed  trade. 

With  S.  &  S.  C.  ]>aper  nominally  at 
17  to  IS  cents  per  pound,  but  actually 
difficult  to  engage  at  open  price  for  any 
delivery  in  1920,  and  with  coated  stock 
22  to  24  cents  and  still  harder  to  con- 
nect with,  the  seedsman  can  spend  the 
summer  profitably  pruning  his  mailing 
list.  The  average  catalogue  can  bo  cut 
ten  j)er  cent  in  number  of  pages  and 
twenty-five  to  fifty  per  cent  in  number 
of  copies  printed  without  loss  of  busi- 
.less. 

DiscouRAGiNO  reports  are  being  re- 
ceived concerning  the  mustard  crop,  which 
was  expected  to  be  unusually  large  in  the 
Lompoc  district  of  California  this  season. 
Because  of  the  great  quantity  of 
small  beans  held  unsold  in  the  ware- 
houses in  the  northern  ]»art  of  the 
county,  the  usual  acreage  planted  to  mus- 
tard was  increased  tliis  snring,  witli  a 
great  acreage  of  bean  land  turned  over 
to  the  mustard  crop.  Light  rainfalls  for 
two  successive  years  arc  given  as  the 
reason  for  the  poor  showing  now  being 
made  by  the  mustard.  The  mustard  is  now 
at  the  seed  development  stage  and  most 
of  it  is  past  the  blossom.  Its  growth  has 
been  cut  short  by  insufficient  moisture, 
and  cool  and  favorable  weather  is  needed 
in  order  for  any  of  the  seed  to  develop. 

DICKINSON  ABSORBS  EIVAL. 

Merger  of  the  Albert  Dickinson 
Co.  and  the  Continental  Seed  Co.  was 
announced  in  Chicago  last  week  and 
will  be  completed,  it  was  reported,  as 
soon  as  possible.  It  is  to  include  all 
of  the  interests  and  properties  of  the 
affiliated  companies  in  Chicago,  Minne- 
apolis, Buffalo  and  New  York.  Details 
of  the  consolidation  will  not  be  com- 
pleted for  some  time. 

The  Albert  Dickinson  Co.  was 
started  in  1855  by  A.  F.  Dickinson,  who

McHUTCHISON  &  CO.   :    95  Chambers  Street   :   NEW  YORK 


did  a  general  connnission  business  on 
South  Water  street,  Chicago,  as  it  was 
necessary  in  tliose  days  to  handle  all 
kinds  of  produce  and  seeds.  Albert 
Dickinson,  his  son,  assumed  control  in 
1868,  and  the  business  was  incorporated 
in  1890. 

The  Continental  Seed  Co.  was 
launched  last  October  by  former  em- 
ployees of  the  Albert  Dickinson 
Co.,  first  incorporating  as  the  United 
States  Seed  Co.  The  officers  of  the 
company  were:  President,  Charles  A. 
Heath;  vice-presidents,  H.  W.  Dough- 
ten,  of  New  York,  and  A.  E.  Eeynolds, 
of  the  Crabbs,  Reynolds,  Taylor  Co., 
Crawfordsville,  Ind.;  secretary,  Harold 
A.  Abbott;  treasurer,  C.  A.  Johnson. 

There  has  been  current  of  laTe  rumor 
to  the  effect  that  Charles  D.  Boyles 
would  resume  his  connection  with  the 
Albert  Dickinson  Co.,  in  an  in^ortant 
executive  position. 


TRENCH  BULBS  IN  FLURRY. 

The  situation  with  regard  to  French 
bulbs  appears  to  be  a  repetition  of  last 
year's  experience,  inasmuch  as  the  cable 
has  been  kept  busy  during  the  last 
few  days  with  comnuinications  concern- 
ing the  inability  of  shippers  to  fill 
American  orders  except  at  sharply  ad- 
vanced prices,  if  at  all.  The  digging 
of  the  crops  reveals  that  the  sup])ly  is 
less  than  had  been  expected.  Soleil 
d 'Or  is  ])ractically  a  crop  failure,  while 
the  quantity  of  Paper  Whites  is  nuuli 
loss  than  is  needed  to  fill  all  orders. 
How  much  short  the  crop  actually  is 
will  not  be  known  until  the  bulbs  liave 
percolated  to  the  liands  of  the  actual 
distributors  to  the  trade,  as  the  export- 
ers and  dealers  have  an  interesting 
liabit  of  buying  and  selling  between 
themselves  up  to  the  point  where  the 
bull)s  sometimes  com])lete  a  circle  and 
are  back  where  they  started  from,  but 
there  are  reports  that  the  orders  booked 
by  all  the  dealers  may  aggregate  five 
times  the  actual  crop,  ridiculous  as  such 
a  situation  would  be.  Last  year  the 
exporters  were  content  to  obtain  by 
cable  from  their  American  customers 
their  assent  to  increased  jtrices,  but  tliis 
year  they  go  th?  ultimate  distance  and 
dcniiuid,    not    only    increased    prices,   in

NEW    EARLY-FLOWERING   or    WINTERBLOOMING 

Giant  Pansies 

An  entirely  new  and  distinct  strain  of  Pansies.  The  main  advantage 
of  these  new  Pansies  over  all  hitherto  existing  Pansies  is  the  extreme 
earliness  ot  flowering  and  its  unusual  hardiness,  which  enables  them  to 
withstand  quite  severe  winters,  and  to  bloom  right  on  into  the  summer. 
Sown  at  the  same  time  as  other  Pansies,  they  begin  flowering  the  early  part 
of  March,  or  as  soon  as  the  snow  is  off  the  ground,  many  times  having  four 
or  five  large  flowers  to  a  plant,  when  all  other  Pansies  are  only  showing 
buds.  The  flowers  are  large,  well  formed  and  fragrant.  They  are  highly 
recommended  for  Autumn  planting  on  graves,  and  for  very  early  bedding, 
as  well  as  for  early  cut  flowers. 

JOVE.    Lower  petals  violet;  upper  ones  light  blue. 

MARS.    Cornflower  blue. 

NORTH  POLE.    Pure  snow  white. 

WODEN.    Quite  black. 

HELIOS.    Pure  yellow. 

WINTER  SUN.    Golden  yellow,  with  dark  eye. 

ICE  KING.    Silvery  white,  with  dark  blue  eye. 

CELESTIAL  QUEEN.   Light  or  sky  blue. 

CHARM  OF  MARCH.    Dark  velvety  blue. 

MIXED.  The  above  colors  and  other  shades.

SMALL  TRUSTEE  SUES  PECK. 

The  Lamasco  bank  was  appointed  re- 
pcivor  of  the  Pave  Peck  Seed  Co., 
Kvansville,  Ind.,  by  Judge  Lockyear  in 
the  Probate  court  June  26  at  Evans- 
ville.  The  appointment  of  a  receiver  to 
handle  the  business  of  the  firm  and  $60,- 
000  damages  was  asked  by  the  Mercan- 
tile-Commercial bank,  trustee  for  W.  H. 
Small  &  Co.,  in  a  suit  filed  in  the  Pro- 
bate court.  It  is  asserted  that  the  Dave 
Peck  Seed  Co.  is  indebted  to  W.  H. 
Small  &  Co.  for  goods  purchased. 

The  appointment  of  a  trustee  for  W.  H. 
Small  &  Co.  was  reported  in  last  week's 
issue  of  The  Review.  Outside  capital 
is  being  interested,  it  is  reported,  with 
the  ob.iect  of  straightening  out  the 
company's  affairs. 

Mr.  Small  states:  "Because  bankers 
were  calling  in  loans  and  were  not  ex- 
tending credit,  and  because  of  the  late 
season  causing  a  decrease  in  the  sale  of 
field  seeds  and  the  tieup  on  the  railroads 
causing  transportation  difficulties,  the 
company  was  forced  to  go  into  the 
hands  of  a  trusteeship.  We  expect  to 
be  on  our  feet  again  within  three  or 
four  months,  and  we  will  pay  dollar  for 
dollar  to  those  who  have  stock." 


ARCHIAS  IN  IMPERIAL  VALLEY. 

"I  have  traveled  through  the  Im- 
perial valley,  California,  from  Niland 
at  the  north  to  Calexico  on  the  Mexican 
border,  visiting  the  farmers  and  truck 
growers.  The  cantaloupe  season  is  at 
its  best.  Over  200  cars  per  day  are 
being  shipped  from  Brawlev  alone. 
Poppy,  El  Centre,  West  MoreJand,  Im- 
perial and  Ileber  are  also  shipping 
points  for  melons.  General  crop  con- 
ditions in  the  valley  are  good.  Farmers 
are  prosperous  and  prices  are  good." 

Thus  writes  L.  H.  Archias,  j)resident 
of  the  Archias  Seed  Store  Corporation 
and  the  Archias  Floral  Co.,  Sedalia, 
Mo.,  as  well  as  of  the  Missouri  State 
Florists'  Association,  who  has  been  in 
specting  seed  growers'  establishments 
in  the  Imperial  valley,  California,  while 
on  a  tour  of  the  southwestern  states  in 
company  with  his  brother,  J.  C.  Archias; 
his  daughter,  Marian,  and  his  brother  s 
family,  in  J.  C.  Archias'  automobile. 


QUARANTINE     INTERPRETATION. 

The  interpretation  of  a  clause  of 
Quarantine  Xo.  ^7  by  Curtis  Nye  Smith, 
counsel  for  the  American  Seed  Trade 
Association,  is  undoubtedly  of  interest 
to  others  besides  the  firm  which  sub- 
mitted the  inquiry.  Regarding  the  im- 
Jiortation  of  certain  perennial  seeds,  he 
states: 

"Answering  your  inquiry  as  to  the 
moaning  of  the  words  'hardy  perennial 
plants,'  as  used  in  amendment  No.  1  to 
■  Regulations  Supplemental  to  Notice  of 
Quarantine  No.  37'  (section  5),  we  beg 
to  advise  you  that  the  expression  'seeds 
of  hardy  perennial  plants,'  as  used  in 
regulation  No.  3,  refers  to  seeds  of 
woody  or  other  plants  which  are  not 
herbaceous  and  are  either  of  a  hardy 
and  woody  growth  or  are  not  killed  to 
tile  ground   in   the   temperate   zone.

The  Florists^  Review 


July  8,  1920 


NEW  PRESIDENT  OF  A.  A.  N. 

Lloyd  C.  Stark,  vice-president  and 
general  manager  of  the  Stark  Bros. 
Nurseries  &  Orchards  Co., Louisiana,  Mo., 
elected  president  of  the  American  Asso- 
ciation of  Nurserymen  at  its  convention 
in  Chicago,  June  23  to  25,  was  born  at 
Louisiana,  Mo.,  November  23,  1886.  He 
was  the  eldest  son  of  the  late  Clarence 
M.  Stark,  who  for  many  years  was 
head  of  the  Stark  Bros.  Nurseries  & 
Orchards  Co.,  Louisiana,  Mo.  He  was 
educated  in  the  public  schools  and 
graduated  from  the  TT.  S.  Naval 
Academy  at  Annapolis,  Md.  In  1917 
he  resigned  the  position  of  vice-presi- 
dent and  director  in  the  Stark  Bros. 
Nurseries  &  Orchards  Co.  to  accept  the 
commission  of  captain  in  the  army. 

Mr.  Stark  was  elected  to  the  office  of 
president  of  the  American  Association 
of  Nurserymen  in  1917,  but  hari  scarcely 
begun  his  term  of  office  before  he  en- 
tered the  army.  So,  on  his  return,  he 
was  elected  vice-president  last  year  and 
now  assumes  leadership  once  more.  He 
has  also  served  as  jtresident  of  the  West- 
ern Association  of  Nurserymen,  presi- 
dent of  the  Mississippi  Valley  Apple 
Growers'  Association  and  president  of 
the  Louisiana  Commercial  Club. 

Mr.  Stark  is  a  member  of  the  Whole- 
sale Ornamental  Growers'  Association, 
American  Protective  Association,  Re- 
tail Nurserymen's  Protective  Associa- 
tion, Missouri  Nurserymen's  Associa- 
tion, American  Eose  Society  and  the 
Missouri  Horticultural  Society.  He  is 
also  a  member  of  the  Army  and  Navy 
Club,  Washington,  D.  C;  University 
Club,  St.  Louis,  Mo.,  and  the  Army  and 
Navy  Club,  New  York  city. 


SOUTHERN  PROSPECTS. 

A  recent  visit  to  two  of  the  chief 
nursery  districts  of  the  south,  that 
around  Winchester,  Tcnn.,  and  that 
around  Huntsville,  Ala.,  found  an  even 
smaller  acreage  planted  than  was  ex- 
pected. On  an  estimate,  hardly  twenty- 
five  per  cent  of  the  normal  number  of 
cherries  are  in  the  field  this  year. 
Peaches  are  nearest  normal,  with  apples 
next,  but  both  are  decidedly  short.  It  is, 
however,  in  evergreens  and  other  hardy 
ornamentals  that  the  shortage  is  the 
most  pronounced.  It  seems  as  though 
at  least  tliree  years  would  be  required 
before  there  could  be  much  change.  But 
some  of  the  larger  growers  are  prepar- 


ing to  propagate  in  large  quantities 
those  items  which  have  hitherto  been 
imported.  Thousands  and  tens  of  thou- 
sands of  cuttings  are  in  the  sand,  but 
it  will  be  years  before  they  are  ready 
for  sale.  F.  B. 


WINTER  INJURY  TO  EVERGREENS. 


Variation  in  Effects. 

Last  winter  was  quite  severe  on  ever- 
greens in  many  parts  of  the  middle 
Atlantic  states.  The  injury  was  not 
confined  entirely  to  transplanted  trees, 
as  native  red  cedars  and  other  species 
were  killed  in  places,  but  transplanted 
trees  usually  have  a  shallow,  confined 
root  system,  wliich  makes  them  more 
susceptible  to  winter  killing. 

The  extent  of  the  winter  injury  to 
the  evergreens  varies  from  the  brown- 
ing or  death  of  the  tips  of  the  neeedles 
to  the  death  of  fairly  large  trees,  which 
have  been  planted  ten  to  fifteen  years. 
Trees  of  the  same  kind  growing  together 
in  rows  often  show  considerable  varia- 
tion in  the  amount  of  injury;  thus  one 
tree  will  be  entirely  killed,  another  will 
lose  its  leaves,  while  a  third  tree  will 
be  apparently  unharmed.  Different 
kinds  of  trees  also  show  considerable 
variation  in  their  resistance  to  winter 
injury;  for  instance,  arbor-vitae  trees  as 
a  class  suffered  severely,  while  i)ines 
came  through  with  little  injury.     Trees

in  exposed  locations  were  much  more 
severely  injured  than  those  protected 
by  other  trees  or  by  buildings.  The 
injury  as  a  general  rule  was  more  severe 
on  western  exposures  and  on  the  west 
side  of  individual  trees. 

Most  of  the  evergreens  which  lost 
only  parts  of  their  leaves  are  putting 
out  vigorous  new  growth,  and  their 
value  as  ornamentals  will  not,  in  the 
long  run,  be  seriously  impaired.  Some 
of  the  hemlocks  and  holly  trees  which 
lost  all  of  their  leaves  are  also  rapidly 
recovering.  On  many  trees,  where  the 
ends  of  the  twigs  and  the  more  exposed 
branches  were  killed,  new  growth  is 
developing  farther  back  toward  the 
main  stem. 

It  is  best  to  prune  off  the  dead  twigs 
quite  close  to  the  new,  live  sprouts,  as

all  white  varieties  were  eliminated,  be- 
cause of  their  tendency  to  take  on  an 
overripe  and  displeasing  appearance  in 
the  can.  The  approved  varieties  were 
as  follows,  in  the  order  of  their  respec- 
tive popularity  among  the  canners: 
Phillips,  Tuscan,  Pelora,  Sims,  Peak's, 
Libbes,  Albright,  Levy,  McDevitt.  Be- 
cause of  their  similarity  to  Pelora,  the 
varieties  Haass  and  Johnson  were  elim- 
inated, and  Orange  was  dropped  because 
of  its  similarity  to  Albright. 

In  the  freestone  group  Lovell  stood 
at  the  top,  followed  by  Muir,  Elberta 
and  Salway.  For  canning  purposes  it 
was  recommended  that  Foster,  Craw- 
ford and  J.  H.  Hale  be  dropped,  but 
that  they  be  retained  as  shipping 
peaches,  but  the  vote  stood  85  to  15  for 
clingstone  peaches  for  canning  pur- 
poses, thus  practically  confining  the 
freestone  varieties  to  the  shippers. 

Among  apricots  Blenheim,  Royal  and 
Tilton  were  the  popular  sorts,  and  the 
recommendation  was  made  that  Moor- 
park,  Routier's  Peach,  Hemskirk  and 
Large  Early  Montgamet  be  taken  out 
of  coming  catalogues. 

For  canning  purposes  the  Royal  Ann 
received  the  most  votes,  with  assorted 
black  varieties  next,  followed  by  Rock- 
ford  and  Governor  Wood.  Shipping 
varieties  were  strongly  recommended 
because  of  the  greatly  increasing  pop- 
ularity of  them  on  eastern  markets. 
Montmorency  was  recommended  as  the 
sour  cherry  most  suitable  for  increased 
planting  in  California. 

PROPAGATING  HABDY  PLANTS. 

Will  you  tell  me  how  to  root  Japanese 
barberrv,  Amoor  River  privet  and  Bos- 
ton ivy'?  G.  H.— 111. 


The  Japanese  barberry,  Berberis 
Thunbergii,  comes  readily  from  seeds 
which  should  be  gathered  when  ripe, 
stratified  in  dry  sand  and  sown  in  flats 
in  winter  or  early  spring.  The  Amoor 
River  privet,  L.  amurense,  propagates 
most  easily  from  ripened  wood.  Cut 
the  shoots  off  in  late  fall  or  early  win- 
ter, remove  the  foliage,  tie  in  bundles 
and  pack  in  damp  sand  in  a  cellar  over 
winter.  Line  out  in  nursery  rows  in 
early  spiing,  burying  the  shoots  three- 
fourths  of  their  depth;  eight  to  ten 
inches  is  long  enough.  Firm  well  and 
practically  all  will  root. 

The  Boston  ivy,  Ampelopsis  Veitchii, 
propagates  readily  from  seeds,  which 
should  be  started  under  glass  in  winter 
or  early  spring.  Pot  the  seedlings  off 
singly  when  of  sufficient  size  and  later 
set  outdoors  in  nursery  rows.     Cuttings

NEW  PRESIDENT  OF  A.  S.  T.  A. 

[Continued  from  page  103.] 

with  commercial  horticulture  was 
through  the  nursery  business.  As  the 
result  of  an  almost  accidental  sugges- 
tion, a  seed  department  was  added  to 
the  nursery  business  in  1889.  Within 
a  year  or  so  Mr.  Hastings  became  so 
interested  in  the  seed  department  that 
he  severed  his  connection  with  the 
nursery  work. 

With  only  a  limited  field,  the  business 
naturally  grew  slowly  and  it  was  not 
long  until  a  new  location  was  sought, 
one  which  would  give  full  scope  to  the 
ambition  to  build  the  business  into  one 
of  the  larger  mail  order  seed  businesses 
of  the  country.  Mr.  Hastings  moved 
the  business  to  Atlanta  in  1899  and  dur- 
ing the  last  twenty-one  years  a  steady, 
consistent  growth  has  been  maintained. 

A  Widely  Serving  Citizen. 

Mr.  Hastings  has  never  been  content 
to  serve  his  city,  state  and  section 
through  his  business  alone,  but  has  con- 
tributed freely  of  time  and  money  to 
civic  activities  leading  toward  the  de- 
velopment of  the  south.  Before  the  re- 
moval of  the  business  to  Atlanta  he 
served  for  several  years  as  secretary 
of  the  Florida  State  Horticultural  So- 
ciety. For  many  years  he  was  a  vice- 
president  and  director  of  tlie  Atlanta 
Chamber  of  Commerce,  for  three  years 
president  of  the  Georgia  State  Cham- 
ber of  Commerce  and  for  the  last  four 
years  president  of  the  great  Southeast- 
ern Fair,  of  Atlanta. 

He  is  also  interested  in  the  publish- 
ing and  printing  business,  being  a  vice- 
president  of  both  the  Southern  Ruralist 
Co.  and  the  Ruralist  Press,  Inc.  He 
was  recently  elected  a  director  of  the 
Central  Bank  and  Trust  Corporation,  of 
Atlanta,  and,  last  but  not  least,  is  presi- 
dent of  the  H.  G.  Hastings  Co. 

The  Bislng  South. 

Mr.  Hastings  lives  in  Decatur,  Ga., 
one  of  Atlanta's  best  suburbs.  He  is 
married  and  has  three  sons,  two  of 
whom  are  already  associated  in  the 
business;  the  third  one  is  taking  special 
college  training  looking  toward  prep- 
aration for  special  work  in  seed  and 
plant  breeding. 

He  is  an  active  member  of  both  the 
Atlanta  Rotary  Club  and  the  Adver- 
tising Club  of  Atlanta,  and  of  the  Cap- 
ital City,  Atlanta  Athletic  and  Druid 
Hills  Clubs.  While  he  has  not  yet  ac- 
quired any  particular  hobby,  he  is  espe- 
cially interested  at  this  time  in  the  de-

velopment  of  the  new  1,500-acre  farm 
about  twenty-five  miles  south  of  At- 
lanta, which  was  acquired  by  the  H.  G. 
Hastings  Co.  in  the  fall  of  1919  and 
which  is  historic  ground,  in  that  on  its 
acres  occurred  the  last  fighting  of  the 
Atlanta  campaign  during  the  Civil  war. 

Mr.  Hastings  is  the  first  president 
which  the  American  Seed  Trade  Asso- 
ciation has  had  from  what  may  be 
termed  the  lower  south.  Virginia  has 
twice  furnished  a  president,  both  times 
from  the  organization  of  T.  W.  Wood 
&  Sons,  Richmond.  Mr.  Hastings'  elec- 
tion is  not  only  a  compliment  to  him 
personally,  but  a  recognition  of  the 
rapid  development  of  the  seed  business 
in  the  south. 


MOTT-LY  GUSANINGS. 

Manager  Ernest  Chamberlain,  of  the 
Lohrman  Seed  Co.,  Detroit,  Mich.,  was 
found  pondering  over  the  stock  inven- 
tory ledger.  "Never  had  such  a  sea- 
son," he  said.  "Of  course,  we  looked 
for  an  increase  in  proportion  to  the 
population,  but  our  most  sanguine  ex- 
pectations were  exceeded.  For  this  we 
give  due  credit  to  Henry  Ford,  who,  by 
his  invention  of  the  'tin  lizzie,'  sowed 
the  seed  that  has  made  our  city  famous 
the  world  over.  This  is  publicity  of 
the  most  positive  kind  and  we  are  shar- 
ing in  the  general  benefit.  By  a  system 
of  cooperation  we  have  been  enabled 
to  scatter  broadcast  the  seed  that  other- 
wise would  have  been  kept  at  home. 
We  look  for  a  heavy  sale  on  Dutch 
bulbs,  as  a  result  of  the  successful  tulip 
show  held  June  3." 

S.  M.  labell  &  Co.,  Jackson,  Mich., 
experienced  an  excellent  counter  seed 
trade  this  season.  They  possess  one  of 
the  finest  seed  stores  in  the  state.  Man- 
ager William  Luck  predicts  a  good  gen- 
eral harvest,  judging  from  the  bulletin 
submitted  by  their  growers.  P.  C. 
Pratt,  of  the  publicity  bureau,  looks  for 
a  plunge  into  fall  advertising  by 
means  of  catalogues  and  the  local  press. 
Inquiries  for  bulb  prices  are  being  re- 
ceived somewhat  earlier  than  usual. 

The  American  Seed  Co.,  Detroit, 
Mich.,  looks  for  a  continuation  of  the 
low  prices  for  many  seed  stocks  until 
the  old  supply  has  run  out  completely

Hand-Rogued  Hand-Picked 


Hand-Threshed 


For  Greenhouse  Use 

If  you  have  been  troubled  with  badly 
mixed  Pea  seeds,  or  immatured  seed  that 
does  not  grow,  try  our  hand-picked  seed. 
Each  pod  is  picked  when  ripe  and  ma- 
tured, instead  of  pulling  up  the  vines  and 
stackmg  them  to  cure,  then  threshing 
them  in  a  machine,  as  most  growers  do. 
While  picking  by  hand  the  fields  get 
rogued  almost  daily,  not  only  for  off 
colors  but  Winter  flowering  plants  only 
are  permitted  to  remain.

Greenhouse  Heating 


Subscribers  are  invited  to  write  the 
Editor  of  this  Department  with  regard  to 
any  details  of  greenhouse  heating  that 
are  not  understood.  When  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.  » 


FOE  PBOPAGATINO  HOUSE. 

I  am  building  a  place  above  my  work- 
room for  propagating  geraniums  and 
other  plants.  It  will  be  21x27  feet,  with 
the  side  walls  four  feet  high,  boarded 
and  papered  roof  and  one  gable  of  glass. 
The  other  gable  connects  with  the 
greenhouse  proper.  I  have  a  Giblin  hot 
water  boiler,  with  a  24-inch  round  pot, 
which  will  be  in  the  workroom  below. 
I  wish  to  put  the  pipes  under  the 
benches.  How  much  piping  will  be 
needed  and   how  should  I  arrange  it! 

C.  G.  L.— N.  Y. 


If  there  are  three  benches  in  the 
house,  run  a  2% -inch  flow  pipe  under 
each  bench  and  connect  each  flow  pipe 
with  a  coil  of  2-inch  return  pipes.  Three 
returns  could  be  used  under  each  of  the 
side  benches  and  four  returns  under  the 
middle  bench,  making  ten  return  pipes 
in  all. 

With  four  benches,  run  the  middle 
flow  pipe  overhead  and  at  the  farther 
end  of  the  house  connect  it  by  means 
of  2-inch  pipes  with  a  coil  of  two  2- 
inch  returns  under  each  of  the  middle 
benches,  or  a  2-inch  flow  pipe  could  be 
used  under  each  of  the  middle  benches. 

Run  the  flow  pipes  downhill  and  con- 
nect the  highest  point  in  each  flow  pipe 
with  the  expansion  tank,  which  should 
be  located  higher  than  the  flow  pipes. 


HEATING  HOUSE  AND  HOTBEDS. 

I  am  sending  you  a  plan  of  our  house 
and  frames.  We  intend  to  add  to  each 
side  of  the  house  a  frame  to  be  covered 
with  sashes  and  to  build  a  frame  at 
right  angles  to  the  boiler  room  also  to 
be  covered  with  sashes,  but  to  be  of 
double  width  and  to  slope  from  the 
ridge  both  ways.  We  also  intend  to 
bury  pipes  in  the  ground  under  our  cab- 
bage beds  to  connect  with  our  green- 
house heating  system,  for  forcing  sweet 
potato  plants.  We  should  probably  have 
two  14x75-foot  beds  piped.  Is  this  prac- 
tical? What  size  of  pipes  would  be  re- 
quired? How  close  should  they  be 
placed 

The  greenhouse  would  have  to  be 
heated  to  60  degrees  when  the  outside 
temperature  is  zero,  but  the  frames  are 
used  only  in  the  spring,  when  the  out- 
side temperature  is  seldom  lower  than 
15  degrees  and  then  50  degrees  would 
be  enough.  What  size  of  boiler  would 
be  required?  Should  we  use  hot  water 
or  steam?  We  will  burn  soft  coal. 
What  size  of  pipes  should  be  used  for 
flows  and  returns?     W.   E.    W. — Ark. 

For  the  present  greenhouse  use  one 
2%-inch  flow  pipe  under  the  ridge  and 
four  1%-inch  returns  under  the  side 
benches.    If  it  is  intended  to  heat  the

KROESCHELL  BOILERS  have  no  bulky,

disagreeable  work  and  trouble  indispens-

and  tortuous  back  and  forth  fire  passages. 

The  superiority  of  our  boilers  has  resulted  in  the  removal

There  is  a  Kroeschell

Generator.    Greenhouses  each  28  feet  by  200  feet.    Garland  Construction. 

The  mains  are  arranKed  to  take  care  of  a  future  addition  of  49,000  »q.  ft.  of  glass:  2-inch  retomt 
ars  used  throaichout  the  entire  range  and  each  2-inch  return  line  is  controlled  by  1-incn  gate  valve  (strictly 
a  Kroeschell  feature) ,  insuring  perfect  control.  It  is  a  gravity  job;  the  circulation  is  perfect,  reaching  the 
extreme  ends  of  range  in  fifteen  minutes.  The  Kroeschell  Generator  (the  high  speed  gear  for  hot  water 
heating)  ii  also  used  for  this  system! 

"Your  No.  15  Kroeschell  Boiler  heats  our  entire  range.  We  maintain  a  temperature  of 
60  degrees  in  our  greenhouses,  and  this  temperature  is  easily  maintained,  even  in  the  very 
coldest  weather.  Your  boiler  has  given  entire  satisfaction.  It  is  the  best  and  Quickest 
heater  I  have  ever  used  or  seen.  I  have  found  the  boiler  very  economical  in  the  use  of  fuel 
and  labor,  as  it  is  not  necessary  to  use  the  best  coal,  and  any  labor  will  do  for  a  fireman. 
The  Kroeschell  Piping  System  with  Generator  works  like  a  charm.  When  I  wanttosulpur, 
I  can  heat  the  water  up  to  230  to  240  degrees  and  I  get  the  same  results  as  from  steam.  See- 
ing is  believing— all  growers  are  invited  to  call.  Any  further  information  concerning  boiler 
and  piping  system  will  be  gladly  given.  We  had  a  large  number  of  florists  at  our  place

feet.  All  of  the  flows,  as  well  as  the 
returns,  should  run  downhill. 

The  foregoing  is  intended  as  hot 
water  radiation  and  to  supply  it  one 
should  use  a  heater  rated  for  about 
1,000  square  feet.  While  the  size  of  the 
grate  will  vary  with  the  different  kinds 
of  heaters,  most  of  them  would  have  a 
grate  twenty-four  or  twenty-five  inches 
in  diameter. 

In  order  to  secure  a  good  circulation 
in  the  system,  it  will  be  desirable  to 
have  the  top  of  the  heater  lower  than 
the  returns. 

While  steam  heat  might  be  used  for 
heating,  it  would  require  more  attention 
and,  in  order  to  have  the  water  return 
to  the  boiler  by  gravity,  it  would  be 
necessary  to  have  the  flows  at  least  two 
feet  above  the  top  of  the  boiler.  While 
it  is  desirable  to  have  the  lowest  part 
of  the  flows  slightly  above  the  boiler 
when  hot  water  is  used,  it  will, be  pos- 
sible to  secure  a  fairly  good  circulation 
when  they  are  one  foot  above  the  level 
of  the  grate  at  the  lowest  part  of  the 
coils.

SALT  LAKE  CITY,  UTAH. 


The  Maxket. 

Business  during  June  was  all  that 
could  be  expected.  Many  wedding  deco- 
rations kept  florists  busy  most  of  the 
time.  Peonies  were  late  this  season  and 
did  not  come  on  until  about  June  10. 
The  supply  of  these  was  large  and  hin- 
dered the  sale  of  roses  and  other  indoor 
stock  considerably  for  about  ten  days. 
Boses  have  been  of  fine  quality  for  June, 
on  account  of  the  cool  weather.  Carna- 
tions are  fairly  good  for  this  time  of  the 
year.  Most  growers  are  replanting  and 
a  shortage  of  all  indoor  stock  is  begin- 
ning to  be  felt. 

Outdoor  flowers  are  abundant  and  of 
excellent  quality.  Gypsophila,  fever- 
few, gaillardia,  coreopsis.  Delphinium 
Belladonna,  veronica  and  other  peren- 
nials are  cleaning  up  well  at  all  times. 
Oladioli  and  sweet  peas  are  arriving  in 
small  quantities,  but  the  supply  is  short 
of  the  demand. 

Various  Notes. 

The  Miller  Floral  Co.,  at  10  East 
Broadway,  has  handled  an  especially 
large  amount  of  fine  Canterbury  bells 
this  month.  These  were  grown  at  the 
firm's  greenhouses  at  Farmington.  The 
employees  of  the  firm  enjoyed  an  out- 
ing at  Lagoon  Saturday,  July  3.  A 
baseball  game  between  the  rose  men  and 
the  carnation  men  was  the  big  feature 
of  the  day.

A  satisfied  customer  is  the  best  AD^' 

Mr.  Frank  Carek,  of  Lorain,  Ohio,  writes: 

"In  regard  to  your  patent  LEAK-PROOF  gutter,  we  can  say  it  is  there  with 
the  goods.  It  is  all  that  we  want;  it  does  our  work  with  great  satisfaction 
and  is  a  good  job.  We  put  it  all  through  the  annex  and  it  is  tight  and  most 
satisfactory." 

We  are  the  patentees  and  sole  manufacturers  of  this 

LEAK-PROOF  gutter  which  is  giving  so  much  satisfaction.

SEATTLE  NOTES. 

LCoiicluded  from  j)n(?('  (ll.i 

on  the  Portland  trade  during  the  last 
week  and  will  visit  eastern  Oregon 
points  before  returning. 

Palermo  F.  Rosaia,  of  Eosaia  Bros., 
is  one  of  the  three  incorporators  named 
at  Olympia,  Wash.,  in  the  formation  of 
the  Coburn  Oil  Co.,  Seattle,  Wash. 

C.  Benson,  who  has  been  in  charge  of 
the  Department  of  Agriculture's  ex- 
periment station  at  Fairbanks,  Alaska, 
during  the  last  few  years,  has  retired 
from  government  service  and  will  start 
as  a  grower  here.  He  is  erecting  two 
greenhouses,  27x200  feet,  and  will  spe- 
cialize in  growing  chrysanthemums  for 
the  trade.  Before  entering  the  govern- 
ment service  Mr.  Benson  was  connected 
with  Rosaia  Bros. 

The  Woodlawn  Flower  Shop  showed 
some  good  Russell  roses  last  week  and 
these  were  effectively  combined  with 
several  other  outdoor  flowers  to  produce 
a  number  of  different  window  combina- 
tions. 

From  present  indications,  there  will 
be  more  chrysanthemums  for  local  de- 
livery this  fall  than  ever  before,  since 
three  growers  controlling  a  good-sized 
acreage  will  take  up  this  culture  for  the 
first  time,  while  all  the  older  growers 
are  at  least  duplicating  last  season's 
planting.  The  good  results  secured  on 
the  last  season's  work  are  said  to  be 
largely  responsible  for  this  increase, 

McCoy's  is  making  some  changes  in 
the  floor  arrangement  of  the  store  and 
will  shortly  have  the  new  quarters  ar- 
ranged so  as  to  allow  the  best  handling 
of  the  business. 

Most  of  the  florists  worked  short- 
handed  July  4,  opening  only  a  half-lay 
and  letting" a  part  of  the  help  take  Ihe 
greater  part  of  July  5  off  also. 

Several  large  weddings  have  been 
handled  recently  by  the  Hollywood  Gar- 
dens. Some  nice  combinations  of  spring 
flowers  were  shown  in  baskets.    H.  M.

Federal  Greenhouse 
Cement  No.  2 

(Regular) 


Is  Low 


There  has  been  great  improvement  in  the  pro- 
cess of  making  Glazing  Cements  since  they  first 
were  put  on  the  market  by  us,  in  1911,  and  the 
better  article  can  now  be  sold  for  less  than  the 
inferior  one  has  cost. 

Considering  tlie  rise  in  otlier  commodities 

It  amounts  to  an  important  reduction  here. 

Federal  Greenhouse  Cement  No.  2  is  a  medium  thick  consistency.  We 
consider  this  the  ideal  consistency  for  glazing  work,  not  too  thick  nor  too 
thin.  Can  be  used  in  greenhouse  gun,  putty  bulb,  or  other  instruments. 
Those  who  prefer  a  slightly  thinner  consistency  can  thin  with  Federal 
Special  Greenhouse  Thinner. 

SOLD  DIRECT  TO  THE  GREENHOUSE  TRADE  BY

of  Cement  for  Special  work.

i  The  Market. 

The  end  of  the  week  finds  the  market 
well  supplied  with  most  kinds  of  stock, 
although  carnations  are  fast  disappear- 
ing and  the  few  that  are  on  the  market 
arq  hardly  worth  handling.  Outdoor 
stock  seems  to  be  exceptionally  plenti- 
ful. The  extremely  hot  weather  of  the 
last  few  days  made  stock  arrive  faster 
than  for  some  time.  This  weather  also 
makes  it  hard  to  hold  any  kind  of  flow- 
ers for  more  than  a  day. 

Easter  lilies  are  arriving  of  good  qual- 
ity and  in  large  quantity.  Gladioli  are 
still  scarce  and  are  bringing  a  good 
price.  The  call  for  valley  has  dropped 
considerably  since  June.  Orchids  have 
been  moving  well,  although  there  is  just 
a  limited  supply.  Delphinium  and 
coreopsis  make  up  a  goodly  portion  of 
the  stock  now  on  the  market,  while 
rambler  roses,  daisies  and  thunbergias 
have  made  their  appearance. 

Various  Notes. 

The  Jones-Bussell  Go.  is  closing  the 
store  at  3  p.  m.  Saturdays  and  5  p.  m. 
other  week  days,  beginning  July  1. 

A  messenger  from  the  Park  Flower 
Shop  was  held  up  on  his  way  to  a  bank 
to  make  a  deposit  last  wsek,  but  the 
hold-up  man  only  got  a  small  amount 
and  was  later  arrested.  From  the  latest 
reports  he  was  sentenced  to  four  years' 
imprisonment. 

F.  Kirchner,  of  West  Park,  0.,  has  a

AtxJAtX  BLACK  GLAZING  CEMENT 


^  PRACTICAL   glazing  material   made   for  application    in  a 
practical  manner.     No  clumsy,  slo^  working  tools  necessary — 

simply  a  putty  buiber  or  two  and  a  filling  gun  to  load  them — furnished/ree  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  green- 
house 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  ia  exi>osed  to  the  oxygen  of  the  air)  forms  a  resilient  tough  skin,  below  which  the 

material  remains  soft  and  plastic.  Because  of  this  we  guar- 
antee that  the  coldest  weather  will  not  cause  it  to  become 
brittle  or  pull  away.  On  the  other  hand  our  product  is  war- 
ranted 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  hard- 
ens, 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. 

LOW    COST 

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. 

One  gallon  is  sufiicient  to  glaze  500  lineal  feet  of  sash. 

While  primarily  made  to  stop  water  leaks,  so  thoroughly 
does  Ajax  Black  Glazing  Cement  hermetically  seal  up  the  sash, 
that  it  will  soon  pay  for  itself  in  the  saving  of  heat  that  is  other- 
wise lost  through  air  voids.  This  fact  has  been  demonstrated 
time  and  again,  and  we  can  prove  it.

Inside  Facts 
On  Outside  Watering 


Every  little  while  some  Florist  says  to  us: 

"If  I  was  a  market  gardener  I'd  get  Skinner  System  Irrigation  in 
a  minute. 

"But  not  growing  any  vegetables,  don't  see  that  I  can  use  it." 
Let's  see  about  that. 

Arn't  the  florists  just  about  as  dependent  as  the  market  gardener 
on  what  his  outside  crops  will  do  for  him? 

First  off,  his  direct  income  for  many  weeks  in  the  year  depends 
largely  on  flowers  grown  outside. 

You  know  the  money  there  has  been  the  last  few  years  in  late 
summer  and  early  fall  flowers — when  you  had  them. 

With  Skinner  System  you  can  always  have  them,  and  you  have 
them  earlier,  bigger,  and  more  of  them. 

Even  when  flowers  are  plentiful,  the  extra  select  stock  always 
moves. 

Secondly,   there   are   the   plants,   like   carnations,  violets  or    sn.nps 
that  you  grow  outside  before  putting  them  inside. 

Hut  the  money  these  will  make  for  you  inside  depends  on  how 
they  ve  grown  outside. 

How  vigorous  they  arc;  how  well  branched  and  full  of  flower  Ix-ds. 

Third,  if  you  grow  any  potted  things,  your  profit  depends  directly 
on  gettmg  strong,  branchy  new  growth  on  your  stock  plants  for 
cuttings. 

It  is  the  experience  of  hundreds  of  florists  that  Skinner  System 
Irrigation  doubles  results  on  outside  crops. 

This  being  so,  you  will  naturally  want  to  know  just  what  Skinner 
System  is  and  how  you  can  try  it  out. 

That's  just  what  we've  told  in  "RAIN,  for  the  Asking,"  which 
well  gladly  send  you.

With  each  addition  Mr,  Jurgens  has  made  an  advance. 
And  with  the  completion  of  the  AGMCO  steel  framer, 
the  range  will,  in  a  measure,  demonstrate  the  evolution 
of  greenhouses. 

If  you  want  a  wide  house,  why  not  save  time  by  writing 
at  once  for  figures  and  drawings  of  this  same  house? 


A  postal  card  will  do.

Hot  Weather  and  Boilers 


TO  the  average  person  it 
seems  almost  foolish  to 
talk  about  boilers  at  this 
time  of  the  year,  but  to  the 
greenhouse  man,  who  will  have 
to  see  to  the  heating  of  his 
greenhouses  next  winter,  it  is 
a  most  opportune  time. 

You  have  known  for  years  that 

we   are   greenhouse   heating 

experts,  but  you  will  probably 

not  realize  that  this  year  it  will  be  necessary  to  get  started 

installing  or  repairing  your  heating  system  earlier  than 

usual.    This  is  due  to  the  extreme  shortage  of  heating 

materials  of  all  kinds. 

Better  get  your  orders  in  now  while  our  stock  is  in  good  shape. 
Everything  from  boilers  to  pet  cocks  carried  in  stock. 
Elaborate  vacuum  heating  systems  or  simple  hot  water  jobs.

The  ventilating  sash  is  hinseil  directly  to  the  galvan- 
izeil  eave  plate,  doing  away  with  the  usual  f  tscia.  This 
method  cuts  out  at  least  an  inch  and  a  half  of  shade. 


Just  below  the  eave  plate  is  the  U-Drip  gutter.  Note 
the  fitting  that  carries  the  drip  from  the  gutter  to 
the  lead-off  pipe, -alongside  of  the  post. 


Taking  the  Evil  Out  of  Eaves 


By  eaves  we  mean  the  general  construction  at 
the  eaves,  including  the  post  and   rafter. 

Our  posts  are  wrought  iron.  Not  steel.  Because 
of  steel's  open  fiber  texture,  it  deteriorates  more 
rapidly  than  wrought  iron. 

Wrought  iron,  because  of  its  close,  silicate-sur- 
rounded fiber,  strongly  resists -rust.  Much  so- 
called  wrought  iron  is  only  steel.  Our  posts 
are  guaranteed  to  be  high  grade  rust-resisting 
wrought  iron. 

The  posts  run  in  one  solid  piece  from  eave  plate 
to  the  foot  piece,  two  and  one  -  half  feet 
below  grade. 

The  eave  is  our  patented  galvanized  angle  plate, 
equipped  with  our  new  non  -  clogging  roof 
bar  clasp. 


The  U-Drip  Gutter  is  independent  from  the 
plate,  which  is  a  decided  advantage. 

The  steel  rafters  are  securely  bolted  to  the  posts 
by  double  gusset  plates.  Notice  in  the  illustra- 
tions how  THOROUGHLY  bolted  it  is. 

The  non-freezing,  no-sticking  sash  sill  is  made 
of  a  steel  angle. 

All  of  which  are  just  the  plain  facts,  plainly 
stated. 

We  might  argue  the  merits  of  all  of  them,  but 
there's  no  need  to  argue  any  of  them. 

Just  go  look  at  a  Lord  &  Burnham  house  and 
you  will  find  in  its  construction  a  satisfactory 
answer  to  all  arguments.

CALL   TO   THE   TRADE 


The  crop  of  Freesia  Purity  is  a  failure;  Roman  Hyacinths  will  not  come  in  this  year;  force 
more  Freesias  and  use  the  finest  WHITE  available  today;  stock  is  ready;  order  at  once  by 
wire,  while  we  can  still  take  care  of  you.     Only  appearance  of  advertisement.    LAST  CALL. 

Freesia  Fischerii 


Mr.  Alex.  Anderson,  well  knawn 
Freesia  grower  of  Manhasset,  L.  1., 
under  date  of  July   5,   1920,   writes: 

Very  favorably  impressed  with  both 
the  flower  and  bulb  increase  »t 
Ii'REESIA  FiHcherii.  I  wish  you  to 
book  my  order  for  ten  thousand 
bulbs. 

I  wish  also  to  say  a  word  In 
regards  to  liHcheril;  do  not  plant  it 
close;  last  season  I  planted  part  of 
them  Just  like  I  do  Purity  or  any 
of  the  colored  sorts  and  I  was  some- 
what disappointed  with  them,  as  I 
told  you  early  this  year.  I  had  an- 
other lot  planted  Just  twice  as  far 
apart,  having  noticed  that  FlsehepU 
branches;  this  other  batch  flowered 
beautifully,  some  bulbs  producing  five 
to  six  flower  spikes  from  the  one 
bulb. 

I  like  to  say  that  FiscberM  is  far 
ahead  of  Purity  or  Improved  Purity 
and  after  this  season  I  expect  to  dis- 
card all  the  other  whites  in  favor  of 
FlBcheiil. 


^i  ?"i 


Co. 


The     PiUaburrt     Cut     Flower 
writes  under  oafe  et  July  7: 

Our  President,  Mr.  Burki,  brought 
our  attention  to  this  wonderful  FVee- 
sia,  having  seen  It  grow  in  Mr. 
Fischer's  place,  and  his  report  te  us 
Hlso  speaks  of  its  commercial  value 
and   it   being  a  wonderful   flower,   etc. 


Mr.  Fischer  States : 

"After  introducing  Purity  I  turned 
my  attention  to  producing  a  still  bet- 
ter Freesia  by  eradicating  the  yellow 
spot.  At  first  it  seemed  a  hopeless- 
undertaking,  but  I  have  succeeded 
and  the  result  Is  a  Freesia  of  won- 
derful purity;  rarely  is  a  trace  •( 
yellow  seen;  the  flowers  are  very 
large,  measuring  two  inches  across; 
more  like  Lilies  than  like  Freesias  ta 
size  and  purity  of  color.  The  stems 
arc  long,  strong  and  stiff;  It  is  most 
prolific  in  bloom,  many  of  the  kulbs 
sending  as  many  as  four  stems.  Net 
being  a  single  type.  It  comes  Into 
bloom  more  gradually  than  Purity, 
the  crop  lasting  more  than  two  weeks 
longer  in  bloom;  is  not  affected  by 
hot  spells,  so  that  the  cut  Oower  In 
Always  a  fine  large  bloom  of  good 
substance." 


E.  Fardel  of  Great  Neck,  N.  T., 
himself  famous  these  many  years  for 
his  colored  Freesias,  paid  a  visit  to 
Rudolph  Flpcher  at  San  Gabriel, 
Calif.,  in  March,  1918,  while  on  a  trip 
through  that  State.  Of  this  mew 
Freesia   he   writes: 

"I  saw  there  FREESIA  Ftseherll  In 
all  its  glory;  I  can  say  I  was  amazed 
by  Its  statellness  and  its  clear  oolor. 
It  towers  above  Freesia  Purity  In 
every  respect,  as  to  stem,  slae  of 
bloom,  texture  and  purity  of  oolor. 
Its  appearance  speaks  for  Itself,  It 
requires   no   flatterinp   f roin ,  my   pon." 


LIFE  SIZE 

Incomparably  beautiful;  selected  from  the  choicest  of  millions  of  seedlings;  the  Finest,  Largest, 
Purett,  Strongest  and  Most  Fragrant  Freesia  the  creation  of  which  could  possibly  be  hoped  for. 
h  represents  the  most  careful  and  painstaking  work  over  a  period  of  fourteen  years. 
We    consider    ourselves    very    fortunate    in    securing   the   control   of   this   splendid    novelty.

SOME    SUCCESSES 


IN    SWBET    PEAS 


Mos^  fascinating  is  the  story  of  the  experiences  of  a  raiser  of  new  va- 
rieties. He,  as  well  as  the  sweet  peas,  has  his  trials.  His  reward  is  the 
varieties  suitable  for  dissemination.  One  of  the  most  expert  raisers  has 
written  for  The  Review  the  following/  story  of  his  successes  this  season. 


GAINST  the  cry  of  "There 
are  too  many  varieties," 
I  might  cite  the  remark 
made  to  me  last  March  by 
one  of  the  largest  middle- 
we&t  growers  of  winter- 
flowering  sweet  peas; 
namely,  that  the  culture 
of  sweet  peas  under  glass 
was  still  in  its  infancy  and 
that  the  advent  of  new  colors  and  forms 
would  still  further  enhance  the  ever- 
increasing  popularity  of  this  beautiful 
annual.  Such  a  statement  coming  from 
an  authority,  one  who  makes  the  grow- 
ing of  sweet  pea  flowers  a  business, 
should  be  a  decided  stimulus  to  all  rais- 
ers of  new  varieties. 
The  day  when 
only  three  or  four 
colors  were  in  de- 
mand is  past.  The 
old  Pink  and  White 
(Blanche  Ferry  col- 
or) was  then  the 
popular  favorite, 
but  the  discrimi- 
nating public  wants 
more  desirable 
shades  or  at  least  a 
greater  range  of 
colors.  The  advent 
of  Bose  Queen  and 
a  few  other  varie- 
ties, some  years  ago, 
did  much  towards 
creating  this  desire, 
and  at  the  present 
time  practically  all 
the  principal  colors 
found  in  this  family 
are  in  existence 
among  the  early- 
flowering  varieties, 
although  they  are  in 
some  instances  not 
yet  in  commerce. 

Surprises. 

In  the  quest  for 
certain  colors  it  is 
surprising  what  at 
times  turns  up.  For 
instance,  in  a  se- 
ries of  crosses  made 
by  me  with  the 
hope  of  securing 
rich  salmon  and 
pure  orange-colored 
early-flowering  va- 
rieties, in  addition 
to  being  rewarded 
with  these  colors,  I 
obtained  from  the 
same  crosses  two 
immense     cherry

KERR> 


cerises,  in  a  light  and  deep  shade,  one 
of  which  will  be  introduced  under  the 
name  of  Cheerful.  There  also  resulted 
a  giant-flowered  light  orange-pink, 
quite  distinct  from  any  variety  of  the 
summer-flowering  type,  which,  on  ac- 
count of  its  huge  flowers  and  delightful 
color,  should  become  quite  popular.  This 
has  been  named  Flamingo.  These  same 
crosses  have  also  given  a  number  of 
fine  summer-flowering  novelties,  one  of 
which,  a  rich  rose,  will  in  time  be  of- 
fered under  the  name  of  Rosalind.  In 
addition  to  the  rose  seedling,  there  are 
a  number  of  promising  orange,  orange- 
scarlet,  crimson,  shrimp-pink  and  bright

cerise  selections,  all  late  flowering, 
which  I  hope  will  become  standards  in 
their  several  classes  when  we  have  tried 
and  trued  them  for  another  season  or 
longer,  according  to  their  behavior. 
They  certainly  looked  like  winners  at 
our  Floradale  Farm,  in  California,  and 
again  when  I  got  back  to  Fordhook  and 
found  them  all  in  full  bloom  around  the 
middle  of  June. 

The  presence  of  the  late-flowering 
seedlings  is  accounted  for  by  the  fact 
that  in  all  these  crosses  a  late-flowering 
variety  was  one  of  the  parents. 

As  already  explained,  the  crosses  just 
referred  to  were  made  with  a  certain 
color  in  view,  and  this  I  was  lucky 
enough  to  get;  namely,  a  rich,  pure 
salmon  self.  In 
color  it  is  similar  to 
the  late  -  flowering 
variety,  Barbara,  at 
its  best,  and  when 
grown  under  glass 
it  is  simply  superb. 
Named  Mrs.  Kerr, 
when  exhibited  at 
the  international 
flower  show  in  New 
York,  last  March,  it 
created  a  sensation, 
the  judges  signify- 
ing their  approval 
of  it  by  awarding  it 
a  certificate  of 
merit.  In  contra- 
distinction to  some 
seedlings,  Mrs.  Kerr 
has  been  perfectly 
fixed,  coming  true 
since  the  first  plants 
bloomed  in  the 
second  generation 
of  the  cross.  It  is 
doubtful,  however, 
if  there  will  be  suf- 
ficient seed  to  offer 
before  the  fall  of 
1921. 

Disappointments. 

The  most  inter- 
esting of  a  seed 
grower's  work  is 
surely  the  raising  of 
new  varieties,  but 
in  addition  to  the 
prizes  secured  many 
disappoint- 
ments  await  him. 
What  may  appear 
to  be  a  winner  so 
often  turns  out  to 
be  no  improvement 
over  some  existing 
sort,  or   it  may  be

impossible  to  "fix"  it;  no  matter  how 
carefully  it  is  rogued  and  separate  plant 
selections  of  seed  made,  saved  and  sown 
by  themselves,  still  it  may  continue  to 
"break."  These  trials  all  take  time 
and  valuable  space,  and  in  the  course  of 
several  years,  before  it  is  decided  to  dis- 
card it,  such  a  variety  has  been  a  con- 
siderable expense  to  the  grower. 

The  charming  cerise  shades  in  the 
Bummer-flowering  type,  which  are  so 
popular,  will  be  seen  in  all  the  flower 
markets  this  winter,  represented  by 
Glorious,  Illumination,  Fire  King  and 
Glitters.  The  last-named  is  almost 
startling  in  its  rich  color  effect,  which 
is  fiery  orange  on  cerise. 

Blues  and  lavenders  are  now  well 
represented  in  the  winter-flowering  type 
and  in  varying  shades  to  suit  all  tastes. 
The  same  may  be  said  of  the  pink  and 
rose-pink  shades,  but  I  am  still  trying 
for  something  better  than  the  present- 
day  best  in  these  colors. 

Narrow  Escape. 

The  white-seeded  white  class  has 
been  given  much  attention  by  the  va- 
rious raisers,  and  the  cut  flower  grower 
has  found  one  or  another  of  the  varie- 
ties offered  to  suit  his  special  require- 
ments. Improved  Snowstorm  (not  to  be 
confounded  with  the  original  Snow- 
storm) was  the  result  of  crossing  King 
White  on  Yarrawa  and  I  almost  lost  it. 
The  second  generation  of  plants  gave 
me  only  one  white,  and  this  plant  was 
quite  carefully  staked  and  watched. 
But  what  was  my  horror  to  find  one 
morning   that   some   stranger   had   ven- 


tured among  these  precious  seedlings 
and,  in  helping  himself  to  flowers,  had 
almost  destroyed  the  entire  plant!  The 
result  was  one  solitary  pod,  which  gave 
me  eight  seeds,  the  entire  stock  at  that 
time  of  the  now  famous  Improved  Snow- 
storm. 

A  good  black-seeded  white,  one  better 
than  any  now  offered,  is  much  wanted. 
The  seed  germinates  better  than  the 
white-seeded  sorts,  and  this  is  naturally 
a  great  consideration  with  the  grower. 
Albatross  is  good,  but  there  is  a  better 
coming  for  1922;  namely,  White  Star. 
This  is  really  a  winter-flowering  Con- 
stance Hinton  and  is  an  opaque  white 
with  practically  no  sign  of  color. 

From  England. 

English  raisers  have  given  us  a  number 
of  outstanding  summer-flowering  novel- 
ties this  season.  In  my  opinion  the  gem 
of  some  thirty  varieties  we  have  tried 
out  both  in  California  and  on  our  home 
farm,  Fordhook,  is  Hawlmark  Pink. 
Others  of  special  merit  are  found  in 
Doris,  cerise;  Hebe,  pink;  Red  Ensign, 
scarlet;  Blucstone,  mid-blue;  Com- 
mander Godsall,  deep  blue;  Pink  Pearl, 
-Unwin's  Pink  and  Salena,  cream  flushed 
and  edged  rose;  Daisybud,  light  pink, 
and  Brocade,  deep  rose.  Needless  to 
say,  I  have  been  using  some  of  the  best 
of  these  in  my  crosses  on  certain  of  the 
winter-flowering  varieties.  What  will 
they  give  us?     Time  will  tell.

IN  WEST  VIRGINIA. 

Arthur  Langhans,  Wheeling,  W.  Va., 
was  putting  the  finishing  touches  on  a 
handsome  floral  broken  wheel  and  ob- 
served that  it  was  symbolic  of  the  trade 
today  in  that  it  was  attractive  in  ideal- 
ism, but  highly  incomplete  in  the  work- 
ing of  its  mechanism.  "What  affects 
our  branch  of  the  business,"  said  Mr. 
Langhans,  ' '  is  naturally  of  the  first  im- 
portance, but  we  are  all  more  or  less 
interested  in  the  whole  structure.  When 
the  F.  T.  D.  was  first  launched  I  was 
one  of  the  original  eight  rowers,  so  to 
speak,  in  the  boat,  and  while  we  had  a 
chart  to  guide  us,  each  had  an  idea  of 
his  own.  Mine  was  to  establish  a  clear- 
ing house,  but  it  was  overruled.  I  am 
still  of  the  same  opinion,  believing  that 
such,  in  whatever  form  it  may  appear, 
is  our  only  safety  in  what  is  generally 
accepted  by  the  most  optimistic  as  a 
most  risky  and  unsatisfactory  system." 

John  Dieckmann,  Elm  Grove,  W.  Va., 
is  a  combination  florist,  market  gar- 
dener and  farmer.  To  see  the  crops 
both  inside  and  outdoors,  as  they  now 
are,  one  can  understand  why  the  owner 
is  prosperous.  Since  he  is  a  stockholder 
in  a  coal  mine  close  by,  winter  has  no 
terrors  for  Mr.  Dieckmann,  but  when 
Jupiter  Pluvius  let  loose  recently  and 
forced  out  an  immense  concrete  wall  of 
a  reservoir  and  thousands  of  gallons  of 
water  rushed  downhill,  missing  the  big 
range  of  glass  by  less  than  100  feet,  one 
can  imagine  the  fears  the  owner  had 
that  there  would  be  no  use  for  coal, 
even  though  he  had  it.  W.  M.

SWEET    PEA    SHOW 


rr«^ir?»\ir?iSir?«Air4^ir/i\ir?'*sir?'*Y^ 


EXHIBITOBS  AT  BOSTON  FEW. 


A.  J.  Jenkins  Sweeps  Decks. 

The  annual  show  of  the  American 
Sweet  Pea  Society  was  held  at  Horticul- 
tural hall,  Boston,  July  10  and  11,  in 
conjunction  with  the  exhibition  of  the 
Massachusetts  Horticultural  Society. 
The  show  of  sweet  peas  was  much  be- 
low those  of  prewar  years  seen  here  and 
exhibitors  were  comparatively  few,  but 
the  quality  of  the  flowers  shown  was 
distinctly  high.  The  exhibitors  at  these 
shows  are  mainly  from  private  estates, 
and  the  abnormal  labor  conditions  ex- 
isting this  year  made  it  impossible  for 
many  to  grow  sweet  peas  at  all.  That 
there  is,  however,  no  decline  in  interest 
in  these  beautiful  and  fragrant  annuals 
was  evidenced  by  the  crowds  of  visi- 
tors inspecting  them  in  spite  of  the 
rather  torrid  weather  prevailing. 

The  splendid  exhibits  from  Lenox, 
Newport,  Bar  Harbor  and  elsewhere 
were  practically  a  minus  quantity  this 
year,  but  everyone  feels  that  in  one  or 
two  more  years  these  popular  shows  will 
once  more  reach  their  normal  level. 
The  redeeming  feature  of  the  show, 
from  a  sweet  pea  standpoint,  was  the 
remarkable    display  made  by   Allen  J. 


Jenkins,  of  Iristhorpe  Farm,  Shrews- 
bury, Mass.,  the  estate  of  Mrs.  Homer 
Page.  Mr.  Jenkins  showed  several 
thousands  of  splendid  flowers  and 
almost  swept  the  deck,  capturing  every 
special  prize  competed  for  in  the 
schedule  of  the  American  Sweet  Pea 
Society,  a  record  never  before  equaled. 

A.  J.  Jenkins  and  Others. 

The  Boston  Gardeners'  and  Florists' 
Club  special  prize  for  twelve  vases, 
twenty-five  sprays  to  a  vase,  went  to 
Allen  J.  Jenkins,  vpith  fine  flowers  of 
Dobbie  's  Cream,  Blue  Jacket,  R.  F. 
Felton,  Royal  Purple,  Hawlmark  Pink, 
which  was  perhaps  the  most  admired 
variety  in  the  show;  King  Manoel, 
Thomas  Stevenson,  Hercules,  Mascot 
White  and  Mrs.  Tom  Jones,  a  fine  deep 
blue;  second,  "William  Noonan,  gardener 
for  C.  F.  Cartledge,  Locust  Valley,  N.  Y. 

The  Thomas  J.  Grey  special  for  eight 
varieties,  twenty  sprays  to  a  vase,  went 
to  Allen  J.  Jenkins,  with  Annie 
Bownass,  Constance  Hintou,  Royal  Pur- 
ple, Margaret  Atlee,  R.  F.  Felton,  Loy- 
alty, Blue  Jacket  and  Bobbie's. Cream. 

The  Stumpp  &  Walter  premium  for 
six  vases,  distinct,  twenty  sprays  to  a 
vase,  went  to  A.  J.  Jenkins,  with  Loy- 
alty,   King    Manoel,    Debbie's    Cream, 


Thomas  Stevenson,  Constance  Hinton 
and  The  President.  The  last  named  is 
a  brilliant  scarlet,  the  best  of  its  color 
shown.  The  second  prize  went  to  Wil- 
liam Noonan. 

A.  J.  Jenkins  took  first  in  the  Car- 
ter's Tested  Seeds  Co.  class  for  six 
vases,  twenty-five  sprays  in  each,  to 
include  white,  pink,  salmon,  cream, 
light  blue  and  dark  blue,  with  Jack 
Cornwall,  V.  C;  Constance  Hinton, 
Wedgwood,  Hercules,  Robert  Syden- 
ham. 

A.  J.  Jenkins  captured  the  Bodding- 
ton  prize  for  six  varieties,  twenty 
sprays  in  each,  with  splendid  flowers  of 
Doris,  King  Manoel,  Blue  Jacket,  Mas- 
cot White,  Annie  Bownass  and  Debbie's 
Cream,  the  latter  still  the  leader  of  its 
color. 

The  Max  Schling  prize  for  the  best

E.  L 

The  meeting  place  for  1921  will  be 
decided  upon  later. 

President  Kerr's  Address. 

President  Kerr  in  his  official  address 
spoke  as  follows: 

"It  is  again  my  privilege  and  pleasure 
as  president  of  the  American  Sweet  Pea 
Society  to  welcome  the  members  present 
to  this  the  twelfth  annual  meeting  and 
exhibition  of  our  society.  It  is  always 
a  pleasure  to  come  to  Boston;  any  meet- 
ing of  horticulturists  held  here  is  in- 
variably a  meeting  of  enthusiasts. 
Although  our  last  show  here  brought, 
out  many  excellent  exhibits,  yet  it  fdll 
considerably  short  of  the  numbers  we 
had  at  our  1912  and  1913  exhibitions 
in  the  same  hall.     There  are,  however. 


a  number  of  reasons  for  this  falling 
away  of  exhibitors,  and  it  is,  I  know, 
not  due  to  any  lack  of  interest  in  the 
flower,  but  may  be  traced  directly  to 
the  abnormal  conditions  prevailing  gen- 
erally throughout  the  country.  Then 
again,  many  growers  who  had  intended 
exhibiting  were  unable  to  do  so  on  ac- 
count of  the  backward  spring.  These 
conditions  have  again  been  duplicated 
this  year.  Lack  of  help  in  the  gardens, 
supplemented  by  unseasonable  weather, 
has  had  much  to  do  with  the  falling 
off  which  is  so  noticeable  in  looking 
round  the  show. 

"In  spite  of  our  rather  poor  ex- 
hibitions during  the  last  four  years  our 
society  has  been  holding  its  own  finan- 
cially, and  this  is  a  matter  on  which 
we  must  congratulate  ourselves.  If  we 
can  only  hold  our  own  for  a  time,  there 
is  no  doubt  that  conditions  generally 
will  sooner  or  later  be  so  improved  that 
we  may  expect  the  old  time  enthusiasm 
and  so  more  spirited  competition. 

Marked   Improvement^ 

"However,  even  though  our  exhi- 
bitions have  not  of  late  brought  for- 
ward the  number  of  exhibits  we  would 
expect  and  rejoice  to  see,  yet  the  quality 
of  the  flowers  presented  has  on  the 
whole  been  wonderful  and  a  great  ad- 
vance on  those  shown  at  the  earlier 
exhibitions  of  our  society.  Improved 
methods  of  culture  and  the  introduction 
of  new  and  superior  varieties  no  doubt 
accounts  for  this  improvement.  The 
wonderful  varieties  offered  during  the 
last  two  years  should  still  further  add 
to  the  interest  taken  in  the  queen  of 
annuals.  As  it  is,  more  space  is  devoted 
by  our  seed  growers  to  this  flower  than 
perhaps  all  other  flowers  put  together.

The  Florists^  Review 


19 


To  realize  this  I  need  only  explain  that 
while  I  was  in  California  during  the 
early  part  of  June,  I  had  the  privilege 
of  inspecting  practically  1,000  acres  of 
sweet  peas  on  various  seed  ranches,  all 
growing  for  seed.  The  masses  of  unsur- 
passed color  effects,  the  glorious  flowers 
and  the  perfume  laden  air  are  impossi- 
ble to  describe.  The  most  natural 
thought  that  arises  in  one's  mind  is: 
Where  does  all  the  seed  go?  Although 
it  is  not  all  used  in  American  gardens, 
much  of  it  finding  its  way  to  Europe, 
yet  the  enormous  quantities  of  sweet 
pea  seed  sold  in  this  country  is  almost 
past  belief.  This  is  proof,  if  indeed 
proof  be  required,  to  demonstrate  the 
fact  that  our  lovely  annual  holds  a 
favored  place  with  the  majority  of 
flower  lovers. 

Flourishing  Financially. 

"If  our  society  has  not  grown  as  fast 
as  we  would  all  delight  to  see,  still,  as 
will  be  emphasized  by  our  treasurer's 
report,  we  are  doing  much  better  finan- 
cially than  at  one  time  seemed  possible. 

"Much  of  this  success  is  due  to  the 
untiring  efforts  of  our  secretary,  Wil- 
liam Gray,  who  has  not  spared  himself 
on  our  behalf,  while  William  Sim,  our 
treasurer,  and  the  other  members  of  the 
executive  committee  have  at  all  times 
been  ready  and  willing  to  further  the 
welfare  of  the  society. 

"With  our  finances  in  a  fairly  flour- 
ishing condition,  it  remains  with  the 
members  to  increase  still  further  our 
usefulness  in  the  horticultural  world,  so 
that  we  may  realize  the  hope  that  there 
is  a  great  future  ahead  for  the  Ameri- 
can Sweet  Pea  Society."

ment of  the  new  members  and  elect 
their  chairman;  they  shall  fix  the 
amount  of  the  bond  of  the  treasurer 
and  secretary  according  to  the  financial 
status  of  the  society  and  they  shall 
have  power  to  dispose  of  any  unfinished 
business  and  to  vote  on  any  or  all 
questions  pertaining  to  the  welfare  of 
the  society  during  the  time  between 
meetings." 

Mrs.  Albert  M.  Herr,  Sec'y. 


SOCIETY  OF  AMERICAN  FLORISTS. 


As  a  Business  Organization. 

Thirty-six  years  ago  at  this  time  a 
small  group  of  pioneers  in  our  industry 
were  preparing  to  hold,  in  Cincinnati, 
the  first  convention  of  our  society.  The 
convention  was  held  in  due  course  and 
was  well  attended,  although  the  mem- 
bership during  188.5  did  not  exceed  450. 
Today  it  is  advancing  rapidly  toward 
the  4,000  mark. 

But  as  an  organization  representing 
an  industry  of  such  magnitude  as  ours, 
we  ought  to  be  at  least  5,000  strong, 
and  even  then  we  should  embrace,  per- 
haps, only  a  quarter  of  those  engaged 
in  the  business.  Of  course,  there  are 
men  in  every  profession  who  are  so 
wrapped  up  in  themselves  that  they  will 
hold  aloof  from  everything;  let  us  look 
at  them  as  something  we  do  not  want 
to  be.  Every  live  florist  ought  to  be  a 
member  of  the  S.  A.  F.  The  dues,  $5 
per  year,  certainly  entail  no  hardship, 
and  it  should  be  a  pleasure  to  be  able 


to  pay  them  for  a  partnership  in  such 
an  organization. 

Are  You  a  Member? 

The  society  has  done  lots  of  good  and 
prevented  lots  of  harm.  It  is  the 
spokesman  of  the  industry  and  recog- 
nized as  such,  and  its  members  share 
in  the  recognition.  It  should  be  a  mat- 
ter of  pride  with  any  florist  to  become 
a  member.  As  President  John  Thorpe 
said  in  his  address  at  the  first  conven- 
tion, "Just  think  of  an  industry  of 
such  magnitude  without  a  voice  or  a 
word  in  its  own  interest."  That  con- 
tingency is  past.  We  have  a  grand  and 
glorious  organization,  whose  voice  is 
heard  whenever  there  is  occasion  to  lift 
it,  and  whose  representative  qualifica- 
tion is  unquestioned. 

There  are  none  too  big  or  too  little  to 
come  into  our  society.  It  really  ought 
to  be  made  a  100  per  cent  alliance.  Our 
prime  object  is  to  foster  the  interests 
of  the  trade  at  large.  Every  florist 
shares  in  these  interests  and  therefore 
should  join  with  us.  If  you  are  not 
already  a  member,  why  not  send  in 
your  application  to  the  secretary,  ad- 
dressed to  the  society's  own  offices,  43 
West  Eighteenth  street,  Xew  York,  and 
if  you  can  break  away  from  your  busi- 
ness cares  for  a  few  days,  why  not  at- 
tend our  thirty-sixth  convention  at 
Cleveland,  August  17  to  19?  You  will 
feel  the  better  for  it. 

A.  L.  Miller,  Pres. 

Warren,  Pa.— Donald  Head  and  his 
father  have  about  an  acre  of  gladioli. 

Pella,  la. — Martin  J.  De  Jong  is  pre- 
paring to  start  in  business  with  two 
Foley  greenhouses,  which  are  being 
erected.

The  Florists^  Review 


July  15.  1920

NEW   BUSINESS. 


Coming  Back  Strong. 

The  florists  of  the  United  States  are 
now  working  under  the  head  of  "New 
Business."  Now,  Gushing 's  Manual 
provides  for  debate  on  every  question 
before  the  final  vote.  This  question  is 
now  open;  it  is  a  big  question  and  should 
be  given  the  most  careful  thought  and 
attention. 

Notice  what  the  great  fires  did  for 
cities  like  Chicago  and  Baltimore,  the 
earthquake  for  San  Francisco  and  the 
tidal  wave  for  Galveston.  Numerous 
other  instances  could  be  cited,  but  most 
of  us  are  familiar  with  these.  The  point 
is  that  these  seeming  catastrophes 
were  not  catastrophes  at  all  for  these 
cities,  but  blessings  in  disguise,  for  in 
every  instance  they  ard  bigger,  broader 
and,  in  every  sense  of  the  word,  better 
cities  than  before  these  mishaps  came. 
In  each  case  it  brought  out  the  best 
that  was  in  the  inhabitants  of  these 
cities;  they  accomplished  things  they 
had  no  idea  they  were  capable  of;  they 
went  to  work  and  built  finer  cities. 
When  the  rest  of  the  business  world  saw 
the  grit  and  determination  with  which 
the  people  of  those  cities  went  about 
rebuilding,  the  former  realized  that 
they  would  be  good  cities  to  tie  up  with, 
and  the  result  was  that  outside  capital 
found  its  way  into  these  cities  and 
business  went  so  fast  that  it  was  hard 
for  the  original  citizens  to  keep  pace 
with  the  progress.  Had  the  citizens  of 
the  stricken  cities  failed  at  this  point, 
their  cities  would  have  just  drifted  back 
to  what  they  were  before  the  catastro- 
phes visited  them.  But,  to  the  honor 
and  credit  of  every  one  of  them,  they 
met  the  emergency  like  men.  This  is 
distinctly  an  American  trait;  visit  any 
of  the  cities  mentioned  and  you  will  find 
a  progressive  city. 

The  Wax  as  a  Help. 

But  you  will  be  saying,  "What  has  all 
this  to  do  with  the  florists'  business  and, 
especially,  with  going  after  new  busi- 
ness for  that  craftt"  Well,  what  these 
catastrophes  were  to  these  cities  in  a 
business  way,  the  late  war  was  to  the 
florists'  business. 

Last  winter  clearly  demonstrated  the 
fact  that  the  florists  of  this  country 
were  not  able  to  keep  pace  with  the 
progress  the  business  has  made;  every 
one  of  the  cities  mentioned  found  them- 
selves in  exactly  the  same  position. 
What  did  they  do?  Did  they  let  well 
enough  alone?  No;  the  live  business 
men  of  these  towns  got  together  and 
made  preparations  for  this  progress. 
Municipal  committees  were  appointed; 
boards  of  trade  and  mercantile  associa- 
tions took  the  questions  up  and  solved 
these  problems.  There  has  never  been 
a  time  in  the  history  of  this  country 
when  a  city  or  an  industry  had  such  a 
problem  to  face  that  the  men  for  the 
occasion  were  not  forthcoming  —  men 
who  had  a  vision  of  the  future,  men  in 
whom  the  members  of  that  city  or  in- 
dustry had  confidence,  men  whom  they 
would  follow.     In  every  case  these  have 


been  not  men  who  have  had  a  hobby  to 
ride,  but  men  who  have  had  the  courage 
of  their  convictions.  These  are  the  true 
leaders  of  men;  these  are  men  whose 
sole  aim  is  the  greatest  good  for  the 
greatest  number.  This  is  the  caliber  of 
men  who  launched  the  National  Flower 
Growers'  Association.  You  have  read 
the  article  by  Joseph  Kohout,  president 
of  the  Commercial  Flower  Growers  of 
Chicago,  in  The  Review  of  June  24. 
Every  one  of  the  items  in  that  article 
can  be  worked  out;  all  that  is  required 
is  an  organized  start.  They  will  be 
found  so  good  that  they  will  be  de- 
veloped even  beyond  the  expectations 
of  Mr.  Kohout  himself. 

Some  Possibilities. 

When  we  speak  of  new  business,  or  in 
other  words  new  uses  for  flowers,  we 
have  not  yet  scratched  the  surface. 
The  flowers  that  are  being  used  in  this 
country  today  are  being  used  through 
no  systematic  effort  of  the  florist.  People 
outside  of  the  business  who  have  given 
this  problem  a  little  study  are  amazed 
at  the  possibilities.  Take  our  larger 
cities,  for  instance,  with  their  300,000 
to  5,000,000  birthdays  every  year.  This, 
of  course,  represents  the  entire  popula- 
tion, but  cut  these  figures  in  half  and  see 
what  we  still  have;  then  take  the  wed- 
ding anniversaries  and  the  anniversaries 
of  deaths.  Here  are  just  three  items; 
flowers  are  the  logical  thing  for  each. 
If  the  proper  educational  campaign 
were    made    in   just   these   three   items, 


think  what  it  would  mean  to  tHe  trade. 
But  there  are  also  other  prospects 
that  are  just  as  inviting;  for  instaace, 
in  these  days  of  Iftbor  problems,  when 
good  will  counts  tor  so  much  between 
employer  and  em]^yee,  there  is  not  a 
day  that  the  large  employers  of  labor 
have  not  from  two  to  a  dozen  employees 
sick,  either  at  home  or  a  hospital.  Edu- 
cate these  employers  to  "Say  It  with 
Flowers"  and  see  what  this  will  mean. 
This  idea  came  from  a  large  employer 
of  labor,  one  who  has  tried  it  out  and 
who  declares  that  to  "Say  It  with 
Flowers"  is  one  of  the  best  things  his 
company  has  ever  done. 

Using  aiuts  for  Advertising. 

Mr.  Kohout  suggests  in  his  article 
to  use  gluts  of  flowers  for  advertising 
purposes.  This  would  be  the  best  busi- 
ness move  the  florists  could  possibly 
make;  it  would  not  only  prevent  cut- 
ting of  prices — and  the  injury  to  busi- 
ness in  this  respect  cannot  be  computed 
— but  it  would  indirectly  pay  big  re- 
turns on  the  investment.  For  instance. 
The  Review  has  urged  florists  to  en- 
courage merchants  to  use  flowers  in 
their  window  decorations.  How  often 
have  we  stood  and  admired  the  window 
of  some  store,  the  window  of  an  ex- 
clusive store  that  featured  ladies' 
gowns!  Figures  were  used  to  display 
evening  gowns;  the  setting  was  per- 
haps a  drawing  room;  the  whole  thing 
just  needed  a  vase  or  two,  or  perhaps 
a  basket  of  flowers,  to  take  the  stiff, 
mechanical  look  from  it.  Here  is  an 
opportunity  to  ' '  Say  It  with  Flowers ' ' 
during  a  glut.  Any  merchant  would 
welcome  it^and  after  one  or  two  times 
he  would  find  he  could  not  do  without 
them  and  his  brothers  would  be  quick 
to  follow.  The  possibilities  are  won- 
derful. You  are  at  the  critical  stage; 
don't  stop!  Tate. 


Carl  Fletcher,  manager  of  the  Rolf 
ZetlitB  Co.,  Lima,  O.,  observed  as  he 
was  leaving  for  Dayton,  O.,  by  auto- 
mobile, "While  this  is  the  day  of  com- 
munity enterprise,  the  combining  of  the 
florists'  interests,  consisting  of  handling 
of  perishable  stock,  needs  most  careful 

manipulation." 

•  *    •    • 

R.  S.  McMurray,  Bellefontaine,  O., 
reports  large  sales  on  cyclamens  and 
predicts  a  good  season  for  table  plants 
next  winter.  "Nature,"  observed  Mr. 
McMurray,  "seems  anxious  to  assist  the 
publicity  movement,  for  rarely,  if  ever, 
has  there  been  a  more  glorious  display 
of  crimson  ramblers,  purple  clematis  and 
candidum   lilies   for  July   4   than  there 

was  this  3'ear. ' '

The  acquisition  of  the  Warren  G. 
Matthews  establishment,  Dayton,  O.,  by 
Rolf  Zetlitz  and  Carl  Fletcher  as  equal 
partners,  makes  another  link  in  the 
chain  that  comprises  the  Dayton,  Colum- 
bus, Ada  and  Lima  ranges.  The  store 
and  greenhouses  will  be  remodeled.  It 
is  intended  to  have  a  place  thoroughly 
up-to-date,  which  the  Dayton  public  will 
undoubtedly  appreciate,  judging  from 
the  interest  shown.  Mr.  Fletcher  men- 
tioned that  preparations  were  under  way 


for  a  complete  organization  in  every 
department,  each  to  be  independent  of 
the  others.  Discussing  the  question  of 
coal,  Mr.  Fletcher  said  that  he  intended 
to  personally  supervise  their  shipments 
direct  from  the  fields  in  West  Virginia, 
believing  it  to  be  the  most  practical 
plan  under  existing  conditions.

* '  Never  was  the  situation  so  perplex- 
ing,"  observed  Wallace  W.  Wilson,  of 
S.  Wilson  &  Sons,  Marion,  O.  "With 
the  home-coming  of  Senator  Harding  we 
scoured  the  surrounding  country  for 
stock.     This  has  been  the  situation  for 

some  time.' ' 

•  •    •    • 

The  home-coming  of  Senator  Harding 
brought  a  large  crowd  to  Marion,  O. 
"While  we  made  no  extra  display,  we 
wejje>  complimented  by  many  visitors 
who  looked  through  our  store  and  show 
house,"  observed  F.  E.  Blake,  Jr.,  of 
Blake's  Flower  Shop.  "Many  patrons 
whose  voices  we  had  often  heard, 
though  we  had  never  seen  their  faces, 
made  themselves  known  and  it  made  us 
all  feel  good. ' '  Mr.  Blake  said  that 
either  he  or  his  father,  who  takes  care 
of  the  greenhouses,  will  attend  the  S. 
A.  F.  convention  in  August  unless  some 
unforeseen  circumstance  arises.

THE    BOOKS    s^ 


NDEE  the  heading,  "Sim- 
ple System  of  Account- 
ing," The  Eeview  pre- 
sented in  its  leading  arti- 
cle last  week  the  outline 
of  an  easy  method  of 
bookkeeping  devised  by 
the  National  Association  of 
Credit  Men  for  the  use  of 
small  businesses.  The  gen- 
eral purpose  of  such  a  system  was 
pointed  out  last  week.  This  week  are 
considered  in  detail  the  items  which  go 
to  make  up  the  books  of  account.  These 
are  presented  in  the  simplest  possible 
form,  so  as  to  reduce  the  work  of  keep- 
ing such  books  to  the  degree  that  it  will 
not  deter  any  florist  from  employing 
this  necessity  to  business  success. 

Eeferenee  to  the  two  tables,  one  show- 
ing the  form  of  statement  of  business 
worth,  and  the  other  the  form  of  state- 
ment of  net  income,  or  profit,  will  make 
clear  the  relation  of  the  various  ac- 
counts mentioned. 

Tlie  Assets. 

The  capital  investment  is  to  be  de- 
termined as  outlined  ii*  the  table  headed 
"Assets." 

"Cash  on  hand  anj  in  bank"  (Ac* 
count  No.  1). — This  fcure,  when  ob- 
tained, is  entered  on^T^e  left  side,  or 
debit  side  of  the  ledgeii^ttieet,  and  placed' 
under  the  asset  sectiott'of  the  ledger. 

"Merchandise  on  lland"  (Account 
No.  2). — Take  inventory  of  the  stock 
on  hand,  by  putting  down  each  item  of 
stock  on  a  sheet  at  its  cost  price,  if 
that  cost  price  is  at  or  below  the  figure 
at  which  the  article  can  be  duplicated; 
or  at  its  exact  market  value,  if  the 
market  is  less  than  the  price  that  was 
originally  paid.  After  taking  down  all 
the  items  of  merchandise,  then  the  total 
is  entered  on  a  ledger  sheet  on  the  left 
or  debit  side,  and  placed  under  the  asset 
section  of  the  book.

sheet,  and  the  amount  owing  and  col- 
lectible from  each  placed  on  the  left, 
or  debit  side  and  placed  under  the  asset 
section  of  the  ledger. 

"Furniture,  fixtures,  etc."  (Account 
No.  4). — A  fair  valuation  of  these  items 
should  be  made  and  the  total  of  them 
all  recorded  under  this  caption  on  the 
left  side  of  ledger  sheet  and  also  placed 
under  asset  section. 

"Lands  and  buildings"  (Account 
No.  5). — rif  the  merchant  owns  a  store, 
warehouse,  factory,  or  a  plant,  im- 
proved or  unimproved  land,  a  reason- 
able valuation  is  placed  upon  it  and  the 
total  thereof  is  entered  on  a  ledger 
sheet,  left,  or  debit  side,  and  placed 
under  the  asset  section  of  the  ledger. 

"All  other  items  of  value  not  classi- 
fied in  preceding  accounts." — These  ac- 
counts should  be  itemized  and  the  total 
entered  in  this  account  on  the  left  side 
of  ledger  sheet,  and  placed,  like  the 
others,  in  the  asset  section  of  the  ledger. 

The  left  side  of  the  ledger  is  always 
the  debit  side;  the  right  side  is  known 
as  tHe  credit  side. 

We  debit  what  we  have. 
^^e  CI  edit  wkat  W  9W. 

We  debit  our  expenses. 

We  credit  our  incolne. 

By  entering  the  items  1  to  6  on  the 
left  side,  the  merchant  has  charged  hii 
gross  investment  on  the  books. 

The   Liabilities. 

We  are  ready  now  to  take  up  the 
second  section,  the  liabilities  section. 
From  the  gross  investment,  the  liabili- 
ties must  be  deducted  in  the  table  under 
that  head  to  determine  the  merchant's 
net  investment. 

"Amount  owing  for  merchandise" 
(Account  No.  10). — The  total  owing  by 
the  merchant  to  each  creditor  is  listed 
on  a  separate  ledger  sheet  on  the  right 
side  and  placed  under  this  liability  sec- 
tion of  the  ledger.  There  should  be  one 
account  for  each  concern  from  whom 
the  merchant  buys  on  credit. 

' '  Amount  owing  for  borrowed  money ' ' 
(Account  No.  11). — The  total  when  ac- 
curately determined  is  listed  on  a  ledger 
sheet  on  right  side  and  placed  under 
liability  section  of  the  ledger. 

"Amount  owing  for  items  of  ex- 
pense" (Account  No.  12). — If,  at  the 
time  this  net  worth  is  being  determined, 
there  are  any  unpaid  expense  bills,  the 
amount  owing  to  each  creditor  should 
be  listed  on  a  separate  sheet  on  the 
right-hand  side  and  filed  under  the  lia- 
bility section. 

"Amount  owing  on  lands  and  build- 
ings" (Account  No.  13). — The  amount 
owing,  usually  in  the  form  of  a  mort- 
gage, is  entered  on  the  ledger  sheet,  and 
placed  on  the  right-hand  side  thereof, 
and  filed  under  this  liability  section. 

"Amounts  owing  to  all  others  not  in 
eluded  in  accounts  10  to  13."  (Account 
No.  14). — This  account  is  self-explana- 
tory. If  there  are  any  amounts  owing, 
they  are  to  be  placed  on  the  right-hand 
side  of  the  ledger  sheet  and  filed  as 
liabilities. 

"Net  worth,  capital,  or  net  invest- 
ment"  (Account  No.  15). — there  must 


be  one  account  in  the  liability  section 
that  is  headed  as  above — the  difference 
between  all  that  is  listed  in  the  asset 
section  and  all  that  is  listed  in  the  lia- 
bility section.  That  exact  difference 
constitutes  this  item,  and  the  amount, 
when  determined,  is  placed  on  the  right- 
hand  side,  or  credit  side,  of  this  ac- 
count, showing  the  exact  net  invest- 
ment in  the  business  enterprise. 

It  is  a  simple  matter  at  this  point  to 
prepare  a  financial  statement,  as  out;, 
lined  in  the  first  table,  which  will  give 
one  his  true  financial  condition. 

The  Income. 

We  will  consider  now  the  third  sec- 
tion, the  income.  Just  as  with  the  assets 
and  liabilities,  accounts  should  be 
opened  in  which  will  be  recorded  the 
transactions  arising  out  of  the  operation 
of  the  business. 

"Profit  on  sales"  (Account  No.  20. — 
The  profit  on  sales  can  be  easily  de- 
termined by  consulting  the  inventory, 
if  the  goods  were  inventoried;  if  pur- 
chased since  inventory  taking,  then  by 
consulting  the  bills.  The  difference  be- 
tween the  price  paid  and  what  it  is  sold 
for,  is  the  profit  on  the  sale.  This  profit 
is  credited  to  this  account  by  entering 
the  sum  on  the  right  side  and  placing 
it  in  the  income  section.  If  the  busi- 
ness is  such  that  the  items  are  too  nu- 
merous— and  it  is  possible  to  take  an 
inventory  frequently — then  the  profit  on 
sales  is  determined  as  follows  on  the 
desired  periods  of  time: 

stock  on  hand  beginninK  of  period     $ 
Add      stock      purchased      during 
period     $

carried  on,  the  profit  on  the  contract — 
which  is  the  difference  between  the  cost 
of  the  operation  (whether  in  material, 
labor  or  other  expenses)  and  the  price 
charged  the  customer — is  credited  on 
the  ledger  sheet  on  the  right-hand  side 
and  placed  under  this  income  section. 

"Interest  on  bank  balances"  (Ac- 
count No.  22). — This  is  the  amount 
which  your  bank  allows  for  average 
cash  balances.  It  is  placed  on  a  ledger 
sheet  and  credited  on  the  right-hand 
side  under  this  section,  from  your  check 
book. 

"Discount  on  merchandise  purchased" 
(Account  No.  23). — This  item  is  self- 
explanatory.  Rarely  does  a  merchant 
who  discounts  his  bills  find  his  way  into 
financial  trouble.  The  bills  discounted 
are  carefully  noted  in  the  check  book 
and  the  amount  of  discount  is  credited 
on  the  right-hand  side  of  the  ledger 
sheet  and  filed  in  this  classification. 

"Items  of  income  not  classified" 
(Account  No.  24. — All  income  that  the 
business  may  produce  which  could  not 
properly  be  placed  in  the  other  income 
classifications,  should  be  entered  in  this 
section  on  the  right-hand,  or  credit,  side 
of  the  ledger  sheet. 

The  Exi>en8e8. 

We  are  now  up  to  the  fourth  and  last 
section  in  the  books  of  entry  or  ledger, 
known  as  the  expense  section. 

In  this  division,  accounts  or  ledger 
sheets  are  opened  for  items  of  expense 
suitable  to  the  business  in  which  the 
merchant  is  engaged.  These  expenses 
are  generally  outlined  in  the  'second 
table  (accounts  30  and  upward). 

At  the  time  when  bills  are  entered 
for  expenses  incurred  or  bills  are  paid, 
they  are  marked  for  posting  under  any 
one  of  these  accounts,  as  will  be  re- 
ferred to  under  another  paragraph. 

The  expenses,  when  deducted  from  in- 
come at  any  time,  give  the  net  profit 
for  the  period,  and  when  books  are 
closed  for  the  period,  this  net  profit  is 
transferred  to  "capital,"  account  No. 
15. 

The  Journal  Section. 

Another  section  of  the  book  is  the 
journal  section.  In  this  section  on  one 
sheet,  for  instance,  there  will  be  entered 
bills  received  for  goods  purchased,  after 
they  have  been  corrected  as  to  price  and 
quantity. 

The  name  of  each  concern,  date  of 
bill,  amount  thereof,  is  entered.  Each 
such  creditor's  bill  is  entered  from  this 
journal  sheet  to  his  account  in  the  lia- 
bilities section  of  the  record  book  on 
the  right  or  credit  side.  The  total  of  all 
the  merchandise  bought  is  charged  or 
entered  monthly,  on  the  left-hand  side, 
or  debit  side  of  merchandise  account 
No.  2. 

The  Check  Book. 

We  will  explain  briefly  the  use  of  the 
check  book,  with  which  all  men  in  busi- 
ness are  familiar.  This  book  may  be 
as  simple  or  as  elaborate  as  your  busi- 
ness will  justify. 

We  will  assume  that  the  merchant 
has  a  check  book. 

It  is  extremely  important  that  every 
dollar  actually  received  from  any  source 
whatever  be  deposited  in  the  bank  to 
the  credit  of  the  business  and  that  the 
deposits  be  made  daily,  writing  the 
name  of  the  maker  of  the  check,  the 
amount  and  bill  or  item  being  paid,  on 
the  back  of  the  stub. 


Another  principle,  quite  as  important, 
is,  that  all  items,  no  matter  how  small, 
be  paid  by  check,  and  all  information 
about  the  check  issued  should  be  re- 
(iorded  on  the  stub. 

If  the  merchant  follows  the  method 
Inscribed  in  the  two  preceding  para- 
graphs, his  bank  really  helps  to  prove 
ins  account  in  so  far  as  his  cash  is  con- 
cerned. Have  your  bank  book  balanced 
monthly. 

Cash  received  from  customers  must 
not  be  used  for  expenses.  It  should  be 
deposited.  When  cash  is  needed  for 
petty  expenses,  such  as  postage,  car- 
far?,  etc.,  a  check  for  the  exact  amount 
needed  should  be  drawn  from  the  bank 
by  check. 

Crediting  Items. 

From  the  back  of  the  stub  of  the 
check  book — the  deposit  side — items  re- 
ceived are  credited  to  the  right  side  or 
credit  side  in  the  account  book. 

If  a  customer  pays  his  bill,  the  amount 
is  to  be  credited  to  that  customer  un- 
der the  asset  section. 

If  money  is  borrowed  from  the  bank,

that  have  made  Money 

for  Him.   The  Spread 

of  such  Ideas  through 

the  Trade  makes  Progress. 


P^. 


^3/J^ 


Is  the  medium  for  spreading  those 
money-making  ideas.  Tell  the  trade 
about  yours.  Contributions  on  any 
subject  relating  to  the  trade  are 
always  welcomed  by  the  Editor. 

The  way  they  nre  written  is  not  so 
lni|K)rtant  as  the  Ideas  they  convey. 
Write  as  yon  would  talk. 


the  amount  must  be  credited  to  liabili- 
ties, under  "Borrowed  from  banks." 

On  the  other  side  of  the  check  book, 
all  payments  that  are  made  must  be 
posted  on  the  left-hand  side,  or  debit 
side  of  the  ledger,  under  proper  heading 
or  account. 

If  a  bill  is  paid  for  merchandise  pur- 
chased, it  must  be  charged  to  that  cred- 
itor and  not  to  merchandise,  because  it 
has  previously  been  charged  to  mer- 
chandise in  the  journal. 

At  the  end  of  any  desired  time,  when 
a  balance  of  the  ledger  is  taken — it 
should  be  on  the  last  of  every  month 
— the  total  cash  received,  as  it  appears 
in  the  check  book,  should  be  posted  in 
the  ledger  under  "Cash  Account  No. 
19,"  on  the  left-hand  side. 

Tho  total  payments,  as  determined 
from  the  check  book,  should  be  posted 
in  the  same  account  on  the  right-hand, 
or  credit  side.  The  balances  in  the  ac- 
counts will  then  agree  with  the  balances 
in  the  check  book. 

Any  merchant,  we  feel  reasonably 
sure,  can  understand  the  nature  of  the 
books  we  have  suggested  and  described, 
and  the  uses  to  which  they  are  to  be  put. 

Tho  entire  bookkeeping  system  is 
comprised  within  the  ledger  under  four 


divisions.  These  divisions  and  the  ac- 
counts they  contain,  when  grouped  to- 
gether on  the  expiration  of  a  given 
period,  will  show  where  the  business 
enterprise  is  heading,  whether  or  not  it 
is  making  a  profit  and  whether  the  net 
worth  or  capital  is  increasing  or  de- 
creasing. 

Using  Files. 

Letter-size  files  should  be  used,  such 
as  the  following: 

File    No.    1 — Amount   owing   for 
merchandise. 

File    No.    2 — Merchandise     bills 
paid. 

File   No.  3 — General   correspond- 
ence. 
The  use   of  the  folders  in  which  to 
place  all  correspondence  with  one  firm 
is  suggested. 

All  unpaid  bills  for  merchandise 
bought  from  Blank  &  Co.  are  placed  in 
one  folder,  and  all  unpaid  bills  for 
merchandise  bought  from  John  Doe  ft 
Co.  are  placed  in  another  folder,  and 
these  folders  are  filed  alphabetically  in 
File  No.  1. 

When  these  bills  are  paid,  they  are 
to  be  filed  alphabetically  in  one  folder 
in  File  No.  2. 

All  correspondence  from  or  to  any 
particular  customer,  individual,  credi- 
tor, etc.,  is  filed  in  file  No.  3,  so  that  if 
the  correspondence  of  Blank  ft  Co.  is 
desired,  it  will  be  found  in  one  folder — 
letters  to  them,  from  tnem,  etc. 

Files  are  increased  as  the  number  of 
folders  multiply. 

Benderlng  Bills. 

Bills  rendered  to  customers  for  goods 
purchased,  or  jobs  completed,  are  al- 
ways to  be  written  or  typewritten  in 
duplicate.  The  original  goes  to  the  cus- 
tomer and  the  duplicates  should  be  filed 
according  to  date  in  a  loose-leaf  binder, 
which  can  be  purchased  from  any  sta- 
tioner. 

From  the  loose-leaf  binder,  the  cus- 
tomer is  charged  with  the  amount  of 
the  sale  under  account  No.  3,  "Ac- 
counts owing  from  customers,"  by  plac- 
ing the  amount  on  the  left-hand  side  of 
the  customer's  ledger  sheet. 

Each  bill  should  be  given  a  number, 
and  that  number  is  always  recorded  in 
the  ledger  in  order  to  furnish  an  easy 
reference  to  any  particular  bill  with 
which  the  customer  may  be  charged. 

Watch   Credits. 

You  will  want  to  exercise  the  greatest 
of  care  in  extending  credit  and  in  giv- 
ing goods  to  your  customers  on  credit. 

The  books  will  tell  you  how  much 
each  man  owes  you,  and  it  is  easy  to 
call  a  halt  when  too  much  is  owed  by 
any  particular  customer. 

Collections  are  helped,  because  the 
accounts  are  always  up-to-date  and  the 
amount  of  overdue  is  easily  ascertain- 
able, and  one  is  pressed  to  get  in  the 
caah  to  keep  things  moving. 

The  system  outlined  above,  if  adopted, 
will,  it  is  conscientiously  believed,  se- 
cure the  accuracy  needed  in  conducting 
your  business. 


GOIJ)EN  RULE  IN  PRACTICE. 

"I  heartily  agree  with  George  Haas, 
of  Meadville,  Pa.,"  said  F.  H.  DeWitt, 
of  F.  H.  DeWitt  &  Co.,  Wooster,  O.,  "in 
his  opinion  as  expressed  in  The  Review, 
touching  the  subject  of  the  golden 
rule,  as  applied  to  its  practice  among

the  growers  and  sellers  of  small  plants. 
Mr.  Haas  touched  a  tender  spot.  For 
example,  we  have  built  up  a  pro^table 
shipping  business  through  the  classified 
columns  and  believe  that  our  patrons 
are  satisfied  with  our  dealings;  if  not, 
we  endeavor  to  make  them.  We  can 
hardly  say  this  of  some  with  whom  we 
trade."  Instances  were  given  of  firms 
which  refused  to  answer  letters  or  ac- 
knowledge receipt  of  cash,  and  of  a 
house,  old  enough  to  know  better, 
which  sent  out  disreputable  stock. 

"Now/'  continued  Mr.  De  Witt,  "it 
is  a  certainty  that  the  trade  is  hindered 
and  hurt  through  the  lack  of  confidence, 
which,  under  the  circumstances,  is  but 
natural.  Until  that  confidence  is  created 
and  maintained,  all  interested  are  suf- 
fering. The  total  loss  to  business  from 
the  fear  to  purchase,  in  the  first  place, 
from  the  inferior  stock  sent  on  a  pur- 
chase, in  the  second,  and  from  the  de- 
termination to  conserve  and  do  without 
whenever  possible  is  beyond  computa- 
tion. This  is  the  most  vital  trade  issue 
today."      W.   M.

the  variety  of  exhibits  will  no  doubt  be 
broken.

Since  1892  Mr.  Fleischer  has  con- 
ducted a  successful  florists'  business 
in  Pueblo.  He  is  president  of  the 
Mountain  Boy  Mining  &  Milling  Co., 
which  demands  a  good  deal  of  his  time, 
and  has  interests  in  local  enterprises  in 
Pueblo,  to  which  his  attention  will  be 
given.  His  sou,  Wildemar  Fleischer, 
who  has  been  associated  with  him  in 
business  for  several  years,  is  interested 
in  the  Pueblo  Floral  Co.,  which  is  in- 
corporated for  $100,000,  and  will  re- 
main with  the  new  company  as  superin- 
tendent of  the  greenhouses. 

Mr.  Fleischer,  upon  selling  his  estab- 
lishment, placed  an  advertisement  in 
the  local  paper  thanking  the  public 
for  the  liberal  patronage  and  express- 
ing the  hope  that  the  same  patronage 
would  be  extended  to  the  new  firm.

The  Florists^  Review 


Jolt  15,  1920 


FEENCH  PLAN  NOVELTY  TAX. 


Raisers  Review  Roses. 

During  the  week  of  the  spring  exhibi- 
tion in  Paris,  there  were  numerous 
horticultural  meetings.  The  most  im- 
portant was  the  conference  of  French 
rose  growers,  which  had  not  been  held 
for  five  years  previously.  Dr.  Viger 
presided  over  the  meeting. 

Jacques  de  Vilmorin  showed  about 
eighty  botanical  types  of  the  genus  rosa, 
from  the  fruticetum  at  Les  Barres.  He 
called  special  attention  to  the  follow- 
ing species  as  material  for  hybridiza- 
tion: Bosa  Hugonis,  yellow  flowered; 
K.  Moyesii,  red;  R.  Willmottise,  pink;  E. 
sericea  var.  pteracantha,  remarkable  for 
its  ornamental  red  spines;  R.  ferruginea, 
with  purple  foliage;,  R.  longicuspis 
with  long  leaves. 

M.  Pernet-Ducher  next  passed  in  re- 
view, in  a  detailed  account,  all  the  new 
roses  placed  in  commerce  from  1913  to 
1918,  giving  his  own  personal  observa- 
tions on  the  merits  and  demerits  of  each 
variety. 

On  the  subject  of  synonyms,  the  con- 
ference decided  to  retain  the  name  orig- 
inally given  to  a  variety  by  the  raisers, 
without  translation  or  other  change. 

Protection  of  Novelties. 

At  the  horticultural  congress  held  the 
preceding  day  the  burning  question  of 
the  creation  and  protection  of  novelties 
— also  discussed  at  the  rose  growers' 
congress- — was  canvassed.  M.  Lemoine, 
of  Nancy,  advocated,  in  order  that  the 
raiser  might  receive  a  legitimate  profit 
on  his  production,  the  imposition  on 
each  sale  for  a  certain  number  of  years 
of  a  i)ercentage,  to  be  deposited  to  the 
credit  of  the  raiser  with  an  international 
organization  such  as  the  International 
Horticultural  Federation.  He  cited  in 
support  of  his  proposal  the  metho<l  of 
collection  of  the  luxury  tax  as  practiced 
in  France,  which  yielded  satisfactory 
results.  M.  Nonin  proposed  that  there 
should  be  a  fee  for  the  registration  of 
novelties,  sufficiently  high  to  eliminate 
those  of  no  value.  He  also  suggested 
that  the  a[)propriate  association  in  each 
country  should  collect  all  the  necessary 
particulars  of  each  novelty  registered 
and  advertise  the  fact  of  registration 
widely  in  the  horticultural  press.  By 
way  of  penalty,  all  firms  refusing  to 
pay  the  fee  should  be  placed  on  a  black 
list.  M.  Nonin  summarized  the  various 
aspects  of  the  question  under  (1)  crea- 
tion  of  the   novelty,   (2)    its   protection 


and  (3)  placing  it  on  the  market.  He 
urged  that  protection  in  the  country  of 
origin  be  considered  first  and  then  pro- 
tection in  other  countries. 

In  order  to  attempt  the  solution  of 
this  important  question,  a  general  con- 
ference of  delegates  from  the  various 
societies  and  federations  of  horticultur- 
ists in  France  took  place  on  Friday, 
June  4.  At  the  Congress  of  the  Federa- 
tion Horticole  Professionelle  Interna- 
tional, held  recently  at  Ghent,  it  had 
been  decided  that  the  names  and  de- 
scriptions of  various  novelties  should  be 
sent,  on  the  responsibility  of  the  raisers, 
to  the  International  Union,  and  im- 
mediately sent  for  verification  to  the 
national  societies  interested. 

MM.  Nomblot,  Cayeux,  Lemoine,  No- 
nin and  others  advocated  a  reverse  pro- 
cedure; namely,  the  deposit  of  the  name, 
with  an  example  of  the  plant,  with  the 
interested  society,  then  with  the  na- 
tional bureau  and  finally  with  the  inter- 
national bureau. 

MM.  Pernet,  Rivoire  and  Turbat  pre- 
ferred the  first  method,  as  being  more 
rapid.  This  opinion  finally  prevaijed, 
but  the  matter  was  left  to  the  option 
of  those  interested  to  inscribe  their 
novelties  at  the  national  or  the  interna- 
tional bureau,  whichever  they  preferred. 
The  discussion  was  then  closed,  and  a 
further  conference  of  the  delegates,  with 
the  addition  of  representatives  of  the 
Museum  of  Natural  History,  was  fixed 
for  July  8. 

Bagatelle  Winners. 

The  international  competition  of 
roses  at  Bagatelle  took  place  June  8. 
A  gold  medal  was  awarded  to  Rose  Sou- 
venir de  Claudius  Pernet,  from  M.  Per- 
net-Ducher, and  to  Frances  Gaunt,  from 
Alex.  Dickson  &  Sons,  Newtownards, 
Ireland.  A  first-class  certificate  was 
awarded  to  Rose  Benedicte  Seguin,  sent 
by  M.  Pernet-Ducher,  and  certificates 
of  merit  were  awarded  to  Rose  President 
Parmentier  (M.  Sauvagoet),  Rose  La 
France  Victorieux  (Roseraie  de  I'Hay), 
Rose  Mermaid  (W.  Paul  &  Sons,  Wal-

Rose  Registration. 

The  following  varieties  have  been  ac- 
cepted by  the  rose  registration  commit- 
tee of  the  society  and,  unless  objections 
are  received  by  the  secretary  within 
three  weeks  of  this  publication,  the 
registrations  will   become  permanent.

By  Clarke  Bros.,  Portland,  Ore.: 

Oregon  Ophelia — Hybrid  tea;  parentaso,  sport 
of  Ophelia.  The  flower  is  similar  in  shape  to 
Ophelia,  light  pink  in  color,  shading  to  yellow 
at  base;  flfty-six  petals.  It  is  tall-growing 
and  hardy,  having  withstood  zero  weather  un- 
protected; prolific,  having  produced  127  blooms 
outdoors  during  1919.  The  foliage  is  practically 
disease-proof  and,  because  of  the  increased  num- 
ber of  petals,  the  flower  holds  its  shape  longer. 

Garden  Days  Held. 

The  garden  days  at  the  -Hartford  and 
Cornell  rose  test  gardens  were  delight- 
ful ones.  At  Hartford,  June  25,  while 
the  roses  were  not  fully  in  flower,  there 
were  enough  attractive  varieties  to 
make  an  interesting  exhibit.  The  at- 
tendance was  disappointing.  However, 
the  majority  of  rosarians  near  Hartford 
are  frequent  visitors  in  the  garden  and 
doubtless  will  visit  it  when  the  va- 
rieties are  at  their  best.  The  hospitalitj 
of  the  park  department  in  the  enter- 
tainment of  the  guests  was  all  that 
could  be  desired.  A  bountiful  lunch  was 
provided  by  G.  R.  Parker,  superintend- 
ent of  parks,  and  Alex.  Cumming,  chair- 
man of  the  Hartford  rose  test  garden 
committee,  did  everything  possible  to 
make  the  day  profitable  and  enjoyable. 

At  Ithaca,  the  rose  day,  June  30,  was 
planned  to  coincide  with  the  first  of 
three  days  set  for  farmers'  field  days 
at  the  College  of  Agriculture.  Aside 
from  the  delegates  from  the  Auburn, 
Syracuse  and  Rochester  Rose  Societies, 
hundreds  of  New  Yorkers  thronged  the 
rose  and  peony  gardens  during  the  three 
days  and  many  remarks  appreciative  of 
the  beauty  of  both  areas  were  heard. 
Surely  this  was  a  splendid  object  les- 
son to  the  visitors  on  the  beauty  of 
the  rose.  Detailed  reports  of  these 
meetings  will  be  made  by  the  chairmen 
of  the  rose  test  garden  committees.

CORNELL  ROSE  TEST  GARDEN 


Rose  Society  Pilgrimage. 

A  large  number  of  the  members  of 
the  rose  societies  of  Auburn,  Rochester 
and  Syracuse,  N,  Y.,  motored  to  Ithaca, 
N.  Y.,  June  30,  to  inspect  the  roses  in 
the  test  garden  of  the  American  Rose 
Society  on  the  grounds  of  the  depart- 
ment of  floriculture  of  Cornell  Univer- 
sity. The  roses  were  in  splendid  condi- 
tion and  the  visitors  expressed  them- 
selves as  highly  pleased  with  their  trip. 
After  lunch  at  the  Home  Economics 
building  the  visiting  rosarians  pro- 
ceeded to  the  garden,  where  they  gath- 
ered under  the  shade  of  a  large  tree 
while  Professor  E.  A.  White  delivered 
a  short  address  welcoming  the  visitors 
and  telling  them  of  the  work  of  the 
other  test  gardens  of  the  American  Rose 
Society.  He  was  followed  by  Dr.  A.  C. 
Beal,  who  spoke  on  the  classification  of 
roses  and  the  special  work  of  the  Cornell 
test  garden.  Mr.  Hubbard  described  the 
methods  of  winter  protection  employed 
in  the  garden.  Dr.  A.  C.  Fraser  demon- 
strated the  method  of  preparing  the 
flowers  and  applying  the  pollen  in  pol- 
linating roses.  The  visitors  spent  the 
afternoon  inspecting  the  various  species 
and  varieties  that  were  in  bloom.  At 
the  field  oflBce  punch  was  served  by  the 
feminine  members  of  the  staff  and  the 
wives  of  the  professors. 

Many  Visitors.

first  of  the  three  days  of  the  first  sum- 
mer farmers '  week  of  the  College  of 
Agriculture,  which  brought  thousands 
of  country  people  to  Ithaca  to  view  the 
experimental  plots  of  the  college  and 
experiment  station.  Large  numbers  of 
these  visited  the  rose  garden  and  also 
the  peony  plantation,  as  the  flowers  in 
the  latter  were  in  splendid  condition 
this  year  because^of  the  late  season.  In 
this  manner  a  foundation  was  laid  for 
an  ever-increasing  interest  in  the  out- 
door flower  trials  of  the  department. 
Most  of  the  farmers  who  visited  the 
gardens  had  never  seen  the  rose  garden 
and  did  not  know  that  anything  like  it 
was  carried  on  in  central  New  York. 
Next  year  many  others  will  motor 
through  the  beautiful  Finger  lakes  coun- 
try on  their  annual  pilgrimage  to  the 
prettiest  spot  in  all  this  favored  land 
of  natural  beauty — the  rose  garden. 

Many  Varieties  Seen. 

Some  notable  varieties  seen  were: 

Lieutenant  Chaure  (Pernet-Ducher, 
1910),  velvety  crimson-red;  exception- 
ally fine,  hardy  rose. 

Red  Letter  Day  (A.  Dickson,  1914), 
unusually  vigorous,  tall-growing,  semi- 
double,  brilliant  scarlet-crimson.  Its 
cactus-like  flowers  retain  the  pleasing 
color  under  all  conditions.  K.  of  K. 
is  said  to  be  an  improvement  on  this, 
but,  thus  far,  we  fail  to  see  it.  K.  of  K., 
instead,  lacks  vigor. 

Chrisie  MacKellar  (A.  Dickson,  1913), 
a  bedding  rose  of  rare  merit.  Free  and 
continuous  bloomer.  It  has  pointed 
buds  of  orange  and  crimson  and  semi- 
double  flowers  of  a  beautiful  orange- 
pink. 

Duchess  of  Sutherland  (A.  Dickson, 
1912).  Among  the  light  pink  double 
.•OSes  the  merits  of  this  variety  appear 
to  have  been  overlooked.  Two  lots  of 
plants  in  different  beds  both  sliow  the 
same  valuable  qualities.  It  is  a  warm 
rose-pink. 

Gladys  Holland  (McGredy,  1917),  a 
salmon-pink  of  large  size  and  good  form, 
some  flowers  being  seven  inches  in  di- 
ameter; a  good  grower. 

Mme.  Hector  Leuillot  (Pernet-Ducher, 
1904).  This  is  usually  classed  as  a 
climbing  H.  T.,  but,  like  many  others 
of  that  class,  it  is  not  so  vigorous  that 
it  cannot  be  used  for  bedding.  It  is 
a  large,  deep  salmon-yellow. 

Ulster  Gem  (H.  Dickson,  1916),  a 
large  primrose-yellow  single  hybrid  tea 
rose,  with  prominent  deep  yellow  an- 
thers. A  worthy  companion  of  Sim- 
plicity, which  has  always  been  the  best 
white  single  H.  T.  in  the  garden.  Isobel 
continues  to  lead  the  pink  singles. 

Golden  Spray  (H.  Dickson,  1917). 
This  promises  to  be  one  of  the  best  of 
the  new  yellows. 

Willowmere  (Pernet-Ducher,  1913). 
This  variety  continues  to  lead  the  sal- 
mon-pink roses  of  its  class. 

Danea  (Pemberton,  1913).  This  hy- 
brid musk  rose  deserves  to  be  more  gen- 
erally known.  It  is  an  unusually  free 
bloomer  and  continues  on  the  strong 
shoots  sent  up  from  the  base.  The 
buds  are  rich  yellow,  but  the  flowers  are 
a  cream  white.  Although  a  semi-climber, 
this  appears  to  best  advantage  as  a 
'edding  rose. 

Few  Climbers  In  Bloom. 

Amonp'  tlie  polvanthas  or  baby  ram- 
blers, White  Baby  Tausendschoen  and 
liaby  Elegance  are  two  that  are  worthy 
of  a  place  in  any  garden.

WIIiLIAM  A.  CLARKE. 

SIXTY  years  ago  today,  in  the  Clarke  home  in  LouisvilU",  Ky.,  the  arrival  of 
one  William  A.  Clarke  was  the  cause  of  much  ciithusiasin.  Today,  after  three- 
score years  of  battle  with  life,  this  same  William  A.  Clarke  is  treasurer  of  the 
Pittsburgh  Cut  Flower  Co.,  Pittsburgh,  Pa.,  having  arrived  at  this  position  after 
a  business  career  that  would  have  been  entitled  by  Horatio  Alger,  "From  Cash 
Boy  to  Treasurer."  He  is  called  one  of  the  "grand  old  men"  of  western  Pennsvl- 
vania,  and  he  is  not  old  at  all.  Mr.  Clarke  went  to  Pittsburgh  when  a  child  and 
started  liis  career  as  a  cash  boy  in  a  retail  department  store.  During  the  summer 
vacation  periods  of  school  years  he  worked  in  the  nursery  of  the  late  James 
Wardrop,  at  Sewickley.  At  the  age  of  17  he  entered  the  emjiloy  of  the  B.  A. 
Elliott  Co.,  where  he  remained  for  sixteen  year.s.  Then  he  was  with  Elliott  &  T'lam 
for  five  years  and  left  to  help  organize  the  Pittsburgh  Cut  Flower  Co.  Mr.  Clarke- 
is  a  member  of  the  Masons,  being  a  Shriner,  and  represents  the  wholesale  flower 
business  in  the  Rotarv  club. 


Xot  many  of  the  climbers  were  in 
bloom,  but  among  the  early  bloomers 
were  noted   the  following: 

Paul's  Scarlet  Climber  (W.  Paul, 
1916).  This  rose,  wherever  we  have  ob- 
served it,  has  been  in  splendid  condi- 
tion this  year.  At  Ithaca  its  merits 
have  been  verified  in  other  seasons.  Its 
glorious  color  and  long  keeping  quali- 
ties while  on  the  plant  are  two  of  its 
merits. 

Aviateur  Bleriot  (Fauque,  1910).  This 
rose  in  bud  or  flower  is  a  decided  at- 
traction to  a  garden  its  orange  and  yel- 
low buds  are  beautiful. 


Rugosa  repens  alba  (P.-.ul,  1900),  a 
imre  wliiteflowered  hybrid  rugosa,  with 
free  blooming  qualities  and  a  trailing 
liabit.  For  covering  banks  or  boulders,, 
this  rose  deserves  to  be  better  known» 
as  it  remains  a  long  time  in  bloom  and 
is  much  earlier  than  Rosa  Wichuraiana. 

Seashell  (Dawson,  1916),  a  large,, 
beautiful,  single,  pink  variety. 

Purity,  Christine  Wright  and  Climb- 
ing American  Beauty  were  magnificent 
pillars  of  bloom  where  grown  on  posts. 
These   three  are  indispensable. 

The  displav  of  climbers  will  continue 
until  Julv  20  or  25.  A.  C.  Beal,

EESULTS. 

W*  give  them.    You  get  them. 

We  both  have  them. 

Hot  weather  will  start  some  more 
florists  on  the  road  to  Sunday  closing. 

Florists  whose  businesses  are  incor- 
porated must  make  their  capital  stock 
tax  return  by  July  31. 

An  English  firm  that  offered  Money- 
maker daisies  now  presents  Bentpayer  for 
the  trade 's  assistance. 

It's  only  a  month  till  the  big  conven-

Bailroas  officials  give  out  reports  that 
the  freight  congestion  is  much  reduced, 
yet  cars  weeks  in  transit  are  ertill  missing 
at  their  destination. 

Next  week  the  Lone  Star  state  will 
attract  many  southern  florists  when  the 
Texas  State  Florists'  Association  meets 
at  Forth  Worth  July  20  to  22, 

Failure  of  subscribers  to  the  national 
publicity  campaign  to  meet  their  pledges 
has  caused  much  perplexity  in  the  minds 
of  those  who  are  conducting  it  as  to  the 
reason  for  such  lack  of  interest. 

A  gradual  decline  in  commodity  prices 
seems  unlikely;  when  prices  begin  to 
weaken  nearly  everybody  stops  buying, 
with  the  result  of  a  decided  drop,  or  a 
sharp  advance  when  it  is  seen  there  will 
be  no  drop  at  all. 

The  fern  pickers  are  having  their 
troubles  to  get  workers  to  go  into  the 
woodsf  and  the  sphagnum  moss  market  is 
affected  by  the  same  influence.  Bouquet 
green  probably  will  be  in  short  supply 
again  this  autumn,  for  the  same  reason. 

Coal  reports  sum  up  the  situation  as 
less  favorable  last  week  than  the  week 
before,  showing  a  decrease  in  production. 
While  public  utilities  and  factories  are 
crying  for  fuel  for  immediate  needs, 
greenhouse  men  will  have  small  opportu- 
nity to  store  it. 

The  Carnation  Yearbook  for  1920,  pub- 
lished by  the  British  Carnation  Society, 
contains  among  its  interesting  articles  one 
by  C.  Engelmann,  on  "Carnations  in  the 
U.  S.  A.,"  and  also  a  plate  of  the  vari- 
eties with  which  he  won  the  American  cup 
at  the  society's  last  show,  Peerless, 
Matchless  and  Belle  Washburn.  Laddie 
evokes  enthusiastic  praise  from  Mr. 
Engelmann. 


The  last  week  of  June  broke  all  im- 
migration records  since  1914,  thereby  rais- 
ing hopes  in  those  now  troubled  by  the 
labor  scarcity. 

Trade  society  shows  do  not  flourish  in 
a  time  of  prosperity  for  growers.  When 
stock  is  not  so  valuable  more  of  it  will  be 
seen  on  the  exhibition  tables. 

If  the  coal  and  transportation  difficul- 
ties become  so  acute  that  manufacturing 
industries  are  forced  to  shut  down  part  of 
the  time,  florists  in  many  places  foresee  a 
slump  in  next  season's  business. 

Shortage  of  present  stocks  has  been 
adduced  to  postpone  the  publicity  cam- 
paign discussed  in  British  horticultural 
circles.  It  is  doubtful  if  enough  favor 
the  move  to  insure  a  fund  of  $50,000, 
which  is  set  as  the  necessary  sunount  to 
institute  such  a  campaign. 


INTERESTED  IN  FBOGBESS? 

Have  the  florists  had  enough  of  the 
national  campaign! 

Have  we  had  so  little  success  with  our 
national  publicity  as  to  cause  those  who 
have  as  yet  not  contributed  to  feel  that 
it  is  unnecessary  to  continue  longer? 

Have  we  had  lack  of  efficiency  in  our 
publicity  committee  to  continue  I 

Have  we  had  too  little  results  to  prove 
the  needs  of  furthering  our  campaign? 
Have  the  florists  had.  too  little  or  too 
much  business  since  the  campaign  was 
inaugurated? 

Are  we  going  to  continue  or  discon- 
tinue this  part  of  the  work,  only  just 
budding  out  and  just  beginning  to  prove 
itself? 

These  are  just  a  few  questions  that 
come  into  the  minds  of  those  who  are 
interested  in  the  work. 

Perhaps  a  little  judgment  on  the  part 
of  those  who  show  indifference  to  the 
work  might  assist  those  who  have  al- 
ready contributed  and  who  have  been 
interested  since  its  inception,  and  might 
solve  our  problem. 

What's  the  answer? 

Let  us  hear  so  we  may  know  where 
we  stand. 

Henry  Penn,  Chairman, 
National  Publicity  Committee. 


SUBE  BOAD  TO  BANSBUPTCY. 

"Though  in  these  times  we  are  en- 
joying a  seller's  market,  the  florist  who 
sends  out  immature  plants,  or  substitutes 
young  stock  for  old  or  old  for  young, 
or  departs  in  any  way  from  fair  dejJ- 
ings'  with  his  customers,  is  on  the  sure 
road  to  bankruptcy."  These  words  of 
a  man  well  known  in  the  trade,  uttered 
recently,  composed  a  strong  statement. 
He  emphasized  his  meaning  by  explana- 
tion: "The  day  will  come  when  in- 
stead of  hunting  for  stock  we  shall  be 
hunting  for  orders,  when  a  weak  de- 
mand will  cut  our  margin  down  far 
below  the  generous  percentage  of  today, 
when  a  shrinkage  of  business  will  be 
dangerous  and  a  loss  of  many  customers 
will  spell  ruin.  Then  the  man  who  has 
followed  his  conscience  when  it  has 
meant  returning  money  and  turning 
down  orders  will  enjoy  a  patronage 
which  will  maintain  his  business  in  all 
weathers.  But  those  who  have  trimmed 
the  corners  here  and  hedged  a  trifle 
there  will  find  that  those  who  sent  them 
orders  when  stock  was  scarce  will  not 
even  reply  to  offers  when  the  supply  is 
to  be  had  elsewhere.  Eight  treatment 
of  customers  now  means  permanent  and 


successful  business;  deviation  from  sueh 
a  course  is  the  sure  road  to  bank- 
ruptcy. ' '    

NEED  FOB  BOOKKEEPINO. 

In  the  presentation,  in  last  week's 
and  this  week's  issues,  of  a  simple  sys- 
tem of  bookkeeping.  The  Eeview  offers 
the  opportunity  of  establishing  an  easy 
accounting  method  to  the  many,  many 
members  of  the  trade  who  do  not  now 
possess  any  such  thing  in  an  accurate 
sense.  The  system  outlined  is  not  in- 
tended, nor  is  it  needed,  for  a  large 
business,  since  the  florist  whose  busi- 
ness is  of  good  size  has  been  compelled 
to  add  a  bookkeeper  to  his  staff  long 
since.  But  the  florist  who  has  a  small 
annual  turnover  needs  and,  for  his  own 
safety  and  success,  must  establish  some 
method  of  bookkeeping. 

A  few  years  ago  the  Federal  Trade 
Commission  made  a  careful  study  of 
business  in  this  country  and  found  that 
"only  ten  per  cent  of  our  manufacturers 
and  merchants  know  the  actual  cost  to 
manufacture  and  sell  their  products, 
forty  per  cent  estimate  what  their  costs 
are  and  fifty  per  cent  have  no  method, 
but  price  their  goods  arbitrarily." 
Since  then,  mainly  because  of  the  com- 
pulsion of  the  federal  income  and  profits 
tax  regulations,  many  businesses  have 
been  forced  to  find  out  something  about 
their  own  financial  operations.  A  lib- 
eral estimate  of  businesses  which  know 
their  costs  is  twenty-five  per  cent — and 
it  is  probably  less.  This  means  that  at 
least  seventy-five  per  cent  are  doing 
business  in  a  groping  way — ignorant 
and  blind.  That  is  why,  at  the  time  of 
this  investigation,  out  of  the  250,000 
business  corporations  in  this  country 
other  than  banking,  railroad  and  public 
utility,  100,000  had  no  net  income  what- 
ever. Less  than  $5,000  a  year  was  the 
income  of  90,000  of  these  corporations 
and  the  remaining  60,000,  which  were 
the  more  successful  ones,  made  $5,000 
a  year  or  more. 

The  reason  is  painfully  simple.  Busi- 
ness success,  business  progress,  is  based 
on  profit — the  difference  between  cost 
and  selling  price.  Where  cost  is  un- 
known and  price  arbitrary,  profit  is  un- 
certain. Many  florists'  businesses  seem 
to  prosper  anyway — perhaps  they  de- 
velop some  mysterious  sense  to  guide 
them  through — but  few  of  us  would 
willingly  be  blinded  just  to  possess  this 
sixth  sense.  An  accurate  set  of  books 
are  the  best  guide  either  grower  or  re- 
tailer can  have  to  business  success. 


OVEBBUN  WITH  OBDEBS. 

Are  you  overrun  with  cutworms?    Or 

with  other  pests  that  eat  up  your  stock 

and  put  nothing  into  your  pocket  in  its 

place?     That's    bad.      But    how    is    it 

when  you're  overrun  with  orders?    They 

take  your  stock  too,  but  they  give  you 

something  in  its  place.    That 's  all  right. 

Then  the  only  money  that  goes  out  is 

other  people's  money,  being  returned  to 

those  who  were  too  slow  in  answering 

an  ad  in    The  Eeview.     It   works  this 

way: 

Please  discontinue  our  Classified  ad  for  dra- 
reenas.  We  have  been  so  overrun  with  orders 
from  this  small  ad  that  oiir  stock  In  these  sizes 
is  entirely  sold  np  and  we  are  having  to  return 
the  money  to  some  of  our  latest  replies.  When 
we  have  another  siirphis,  shall  be  only  too  glad 
to  send  another  ad  to  your  valuable  paper. — 
Minge  Floral  Co.,  Mobile,  Ala.,  July  1,  1920. 

When  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  Eeview.

Ificliael  Henry  Lyncb. 

Michael  Henry  Lynch,  president  of 
the  Dingee  &  Conard  Co.,  West  Grove, 
Pa.,  died  June  30  at  St.  Vincent's  hos- 
pital, Indianapolis,  Ind.  He  had  been 
taken  sick  while  on  a  visit  to  his  broth- 
er, Joseph,  and  died  following  an  opera- 
tion. 

Mr.  Lynch  was .  born  and  raised  in 
West  Grove  and  had  been  connected 
with  the  Dingee  &  Conard  Co.  for  thirty- 
six  years,  having  entered  the  green- 
houses when  a  lad.  He  owned  consider- 
able land  and  had  a  model  farm  near 
Philadelphia.  He  was  wealthy  and  well 
known  in  West  Grove  and  Philadelphia 
for  his  philanthropies.  He  was  a  mem- 
ber of  the  Catholic  church  and  of  Phila- 
delphia Council,  Knights  of  Columbus. 

He  is  survived  by  his  wife,  who  was 
formerly  Miss  Carey,  of  New  York,  and 
whom  he  married  in  1901,  and  one  child, 
Marie. 

Funeral  services  were  held  at  ,  St. 
Mary's  church,  in  West  Grove,  Pa. 


NEW  YOKE. 


The  Market. 


The  New  York  cut  flower  market  is 
showing  the  effect  the  dull  season  now 
entered  upon,  in  both  supply  and  de- 
mand. Most  of  the  wholesale  stores  are 
closed  by  3  p.  m.,  and  business  might 
well  be  considered  finished  at  noon. 

There  is  an  exodus  every  day  of  hun- 
dreds of  families  seeking  a  summer  va- 
cation, practically  all  users  of  flowers 
during  the  months  considered  in  this 
market  as  "the  season."  The  same 
thing  happens  every  year;  so  all  inter- 
ested are  used  to  it.  The  situation, 
properly  considered,  has  a  humorous 
side.  The  local  population  bends  every 
effort  to  flee  the  city  during  July  and 
August,  while  an  influx  of  visitors  from 
cities  all  over  the  country  makes  of 
New  York  a  summer  resort,  and,  really, 
it  can  live  up  to  that  reputation  save  in 
the  estimation  of  its  own  people.  The 
visitors,  however,  do  not  buy  flowers. 

Roses  are  plentiful,  really  too  plenti- 
ful for  the  legitimate  demand.  Often 
a  box  n^wly  arrived  is  sold  without 
more  than  the  formality  of  opening, 
so  that  a  purchasing  prospect  shall  not 
get  away.  While  records  of  such  pur- 
chases cannot  and  do  not  affect  straight- 
liae  prices,  it  may  be  said  that  they  are 
more  than  100  per  cent  better  than  simi- 
lar transactions  were  in  years  not  long 
paat.  American  Beauty  is  in  quantity 
sufficient  to  meet  all  demands,  and  the 
best  specials  occasionally  move  at  $30 
per  hundred,  but  more  often  for  less. 
The  range  might  be  said  to  be  from  $8 
to  $20.  It  is  the  same  with  hybrid  teas; 
arrivals  are  in  excess  of  legitimate  de- 
mands, and  when  the  best  selections  are 
made,  the  remainder  is  moved  only  at 
concessions  in  price,  which,  it  must  be 
said,  are  not  so  low  as  might  be  ex- 
pected. 

The  supply  of  carnations  has  tapered 
off  to  almost  a  negligible  quantity.  A 
few  good  flowers,  exceptionally  good  for 
the  time  of  year,  are  coming  in,  but  the 
rest  of  the  arrivals  are  of  the  low  qual- 
ity usual  at  this  time  and  are  moved  at 
50  cents  or  less  per  hundred.     Top  fig-

ures  are  $2  and  $3,   and  the  offerings 
quite  worth  these  prices. 

Cattleya  orchids  are  not  in  really 
good  -supply,  and  the  quality  of  the 
best  of  the  arrivals  is  nothing  to  boast 
of.  If  a  retailer's  requirements  run  to 
selected  stock  he  must  pay  $1,  but  for 
funeral  work  the  supply  of  presentable 
flowers  is  sufficient  to  bring  the  price 
to  20  cents  and  less. 

Easter  lilies  are  more  plentiful  than 
could  be  expected  at  this  time  of  year, 
and  prices  have  gone  to  a  range  of  $6 
to  $8,  with  extra  specials  reaching 
$10.  Lily  of  the  valley  is  somewhat  in 
excess  of  the  demand,  and  50  cents  to 
$5  per  hundred  was  the  range  July  12. 

There  is  a  little  shortening  in  the 
supply  of  miscellaneous  flowers,  but 
only  the  ash-barrel  is  the  loser.  Good 
stock  sells  readily,  but  inferior  flowers 
predominate.  Some  fine  Japanese  iris 
is  arriving  and  in  demand  for  window 
displays.  Gladioli  are  late;  most  of 
the  arrivals  are  of  the  greenhouse  vari- 
eties. 

Various  Notes. 

Early  closing  is  a  feature  of  both  the 
Eighteenth  street  fiower  market  and  the 
stores  in  the  Twenty-eighth  street  dis- 
trict. 

The  wife  of  Edward  Johnson,  who, 
with  her  husband,  was  the  victim  of  a 
burglarious  assault  by  a  negro  in  their 
home,  852  East  Twenty-ninth  street, 
Flatbush,  Brooklyn,  July  4,  died  as  a 
result  of  her  injuries,  and  the  alleged 
murderer  has  been  captured  and  is  held 
for  action  by  the  grand  jury. 

S.  S.  Butterfield,  formerly  prominent 
as  a  member  of  the  New  York  Florists' 
Club  and  at  one  time  vice-president  of 


that  organization,  now  resident  in  Okla- 
homa com.  ty,  Okla.,  has  made  a  good 
record  as  a  member  of  the  last  two  leg- 
islatures of  the  state  and  is  now  being 
boomed  by  his  friends  for  the  office  of 
county  commissioner  on  the  Democratic 
ticket. 

The  executive  committee  of  the  Amer- 
ican Dahlia  Society  held  a  meeting  in 
New  York  Monday,  July  12,  at  which 
preparations  for  the  forthcoming  show 
of  the  society  in  New  York  were  fully 
discussed.  J.  H.  P. 


CHICAOO. 

The  Market. 

It  is  midsummer,  but  it  is  remarkable 
the  way  the  shipping  trade  holds  up. 
Of  course  the  volume  of  business  is 
much  reduced  from  the  high  levels  of 
May  and  June,  but  it  is  better  than 
ever  before  in  July.  There  are,  as 
usual  in  summer,  many  fluctuations  in 
the  demand  from  day  to  day,  influenced 
by  the  call  for  funeral  work  and  the 
condition  of  the  weather,  but  as  each 
week  is  recorded  it  shows  an  excellent 
percentage  of  gain  over  last  July, 
hitherto  the  best  this  market  has 
known.  At  last  it  may  be  said  that 
the  flower  business  has  become  an  all- 
the-year-around  affair,  not  only  for  the 
Chicago  wholesale  market  but  for  the 
enterprising  retailers  everywhere  who 
are  keeping  up  their  window  displays 
and  working  for  sales. 

The  weather  always  is  a  big  influence 
on  the  flower  business,  but  it  is  even 
more  so  in  the  summer  than  at  other 
times.  Whenever  there  is  a  few  days 
of  heat  the  result  is  apparent  in  in- 
creased 8U]jply  and  deteriorated  quality.

CHICAGO. 

The  Market. 

It  is  midsummer,  but  it  is  remarkable 
the  way  the  shipping  tr;idc  holds  up. 
Ot'  course  the  vnlumc  of  business  is 
much  rt^duced  from  the  high  levels  of 
May  and  dune,  but  it  is  better  than 
e\cr  before  in  July.  There  are,  as 
usual  in  suinmcr,  many  fluctuations  in 
the  demaiid  frniii  day  to  day,  influenced 
by  the  call  idr  funeral  work  and  the 
condition  of  the  weather,  but  as  each 
week  is  rccorileil  it  shows  an  excellent 
jiercentage  of  gain  o\er  last  duly, 
hitherto  the  bcNt  this  market  has 
known.  At  l;ist  it  may  be  said  that 
the  flower  business  has  become  an  all- 
the-year-around  affair,  not  only  for  the 
Chicago  wholesale  market  but  for  the 
enterprising  retailers  e\'erywhere  who 
are  keeping  up  their  window  disjilays 
and    working   for  sales. 

The  weather  always  is  ;i  big  intluence 
on  the  flower  business,  but  it  is  even 
more  so  in  the  sumuKT  than  at  other 
times.  Whenever  there  is  a  few  ilays 
of  heat  the  result  is  a[)parent  in  in- 
creased suyyly  and  deteriorated  quality.

Premier,  Russell,  Columbia,  Sunburst, 


These  Roses  are  excellent  summer  quality — they    are   dependable 

increase  the   volume  of  their  July  and  August 

are  no  good  Roses  with  which  to 

Try   Victor,  deep  pink;  Butterfly,  pink;   Golden  Rule, 


Lilies 

The  growers  who  use  Lilies  as  a 
catch  crop  have  cut  most  of  their 
summer  supply  and  the  Market  has 
shortened  up— but  our  Lilies  are 
grown  by  a  Lily  Specialist,  who 
sends  them  to  us  every  day  in  the 
year. 

You  can  get  good  Lilies  at  Am- 
ling's  any  time  you  wire  for  them, 
but  it  will  be  better  to  arrange  for 
frequent  regular  shipments.

On  the  other  hand,  a  few  days  of  Chi- 
cago 's  famous  summer  resort  weather 
brings  a  prompt  improvement  in  the 
quality  of  stock  and  a  reduction  in  the 
supply.  The  changes  at  this  season  are 
so  frequent  that  it  is  impossible  to 
write  anything  about  the  market 's 
present  condition  which  might  not  be 
changed  within  twenty-four  hours  by  a 
rise  or  fall  in  the  temperature. 

There  are  larger  supplies  of  roses 
than  in  any  previous  summer  season. 
The  predominating  varieties  are  Russell, 
Columbia  and  Premier,  or  Premier,  Eua- 
sell  and  Columbia,  though  a  few  houses 
say  Columbia,  Russell  and  Premier — it 
all  depends  on  which  variety  the  grower 
has  specialized.  At  any  rate,  they  are 
all  good  roses  and  at  present  quite  alike 
in  color  and  popularity.  There  are  few 
red  roses  and  not  much  demand  for 
them  when  it  is  hot.  White  is  in  much 
better  request,  but  in  even  smaller 
aupply.     The  few  yellow  roses  sell  well. 

The  supply  of  carnations  is  steadily 
decreasing,  but  asters  have  begun  and 
there  are  promises  of  considerable  sup- 
plies of  indoor  flowers  as  well  as  the 
garden  crop,  soon  to  be  ready.    Gladioli 


Tonn 


Wholesale 
Cat  Flowers

are  increasing  every  day.  There  are 
considerable  quantities  of  other  garden 
flowers  and  they  have  been  selling  well, 
as  the  public  has  seemed  to  welcome 
anything  in  the  way  of  change. 

Perhaps  the  most  apparent  change  in 
the  market  condition  in  the  last  few 
days  has  been  the  passing  of  the  heavy 
crop  of  giganteum  lilies.    These  are  now 


in  only  moderate  supply.  While  the 
price  has  advanced  only  a  little  insofar 
as  dozens  and  hundreds  are  concerned, 
no  one  now  feels  the  need  of  sacrificing 
values  and  the  growers  are  getting  a 
much  better  average  return,  greatly  to 
everyone's  satisfaction. 

Orchids  continue  scarce,  but  there  is 
enough  valley.    Peonies  are  holding  out

them  now  is  for  local  funeral  use. 
Adiantum  now  is  the  only  scarce  green. 

The  "Best  People"  Were  Here. 

The  Elks'  convention,  July  5  to  10, 
was  the  largest  ever  held  in  Chicago.  It 
is  an  order  to  which  many  florists  be- 
long and  there  were  numerous  visitors 
who  deserve  to  be  classed  as  among  the 
"Best  People  on  Earth"  because  they 
are  in  the  trade  as  well  as  in  the  benev- 
olent and  patriotic  organization.  Among 
those  who  called  at  the  office  of  The  Ee- 
view  or  whose  presence  was  noted  in  the 
wholesale  market  were:

Many  of  these  visitors  placed  large 
or  numerous  orders  here  for  materials 
needed  for  the  rapidly  approaching  au- 
tumn season.  One  and  all,  they  reported 
the  best  year's  business  on  record  and 
the  expectation  of  a  big  season  for  1920-

although  since  his  return  from  France 
he  has  been  with  Thomas  Fogarty,  at 
Friedman's.  Freres  &  Co.  plan  to  do  a 
general  wholesale  business  in  cut 
flowers. 

Word  has  come  from  Pasadena,  Cal., 
that  O.  P.  Bassett  is  quite  ill  with 
rheumatism.  The  veteran  Chicago 
grower  is  now  in  his  eighty-seventh 
year. 

As  an  instance  of  what  Columbia  will 
do  when  well  handled,  Poehlmann  Bros. 
Co.  is  cutting  40-inch  stems  from  plants 
benched  in  1920. 

The  employees  of  the  A.  L.  Randall 
Co.  are  arranging  a  picnic,  to  be  held  at 
Reisig's  grove  at  Lyons,  July  24.  The 
factories  will  be  closed  that  day.  The 
offices  and  supply  department  will  close 
at  noon  and  everyone  will  attend  the 
outing  except  enough  of  the  cut  flower 
staff  to  take  care  of  the  Saturday  after- 
noon orders. 

Peter  Reinberg,  Mrs.  Reinberg  and 
Master  Charles  Reinberg  returned  from 
San  Francisco  July  12. 

Wholesalers  report  that  the  American 
Railway  Express  is  settling  for  c.  o.  d. 
shipments  much  more  promptly  than  in 
the  earlier  days  of  government  control. 
When  the  express  service  was  consoli- 
dated the  wholesalers  had  lengthy  lists 
of  c.  o.  d.  shipments  for  which  no  re- 
turns had  been  made.  It  has  taken  a 
long  time  to  wark  these  out,  but  nearly 
all  of  the  old  cases  have  been  settled 
and  the  c.  o.  d.  service  is  working  much 
better  than  heretofore. 

The  directors  of  the  Chicago  Flower 
Growers'  Association  held  a  meeting 
July  13  to  close  up  the  year's  business 
prior  to  the  annual  meeting  of  the  stock- 
holders, which  will  be  held  July  15. 
The  association's  year  closed  June  30 
and  it  is  current  report  that  its  sales 
for  the  twelve  months  passed  three- 
quarters  of  a  million. 

George  Ball  and  his  party  set  out 
July  11,  in  Mr.  Ball's  new  6-cylinder 
Knight,  for  a  motor  trip  to  Pittsburgh,

Max  Cohen,  748  East  Sixty-third 
street,  is  taking  advantage  of  the  slack 
season  to  redecorate  his  store.  He  re- 
ports that  plant  sales  up  to  the  present 
have  been  exceptionally  good. 

S.  Y.  Bloom,  822  East  Sixty-third 
street,  has  had  to  draft  a  former  girl 
employee  who  is  on  her  vacation  to  help 
him,  as  his  clerk  resigned  recently. 

Upon  entering  the  store  of  the  Uni- 
versity Floral  Co.,  6302  University 
avenue,  patrons  are  greeted  by  the  song 
of  birds  in  cages  hanging  from  the  ceil- 
ing. There  is  also  a  little  fairy  in  the 
window  inviting  them  in.  Business  is 
reported  good  for  this  time  of  the  year. 

Lincoln  park  had  one  of  the  attrac- 
tive Elks'  displays.  It  was  a  big  bed, 
fifty  feet  in  diameter,  planted  to  repro- 
duce the  Elks'  emblem.  Over  8,000 
plants  were  used  and  it  required  much 
effort  on  the  part  of  Head  Gardener 
O  'Carroll  to  get  the  stock  ready  in  time, 
as  it  was  not  only  an  "Eleventh  Hour" 
design,  but  an  eleventh  hour  idea.  The 
figures  "1920"  were  made  with  Mme. 
Salleroi  geraniums.  The  word  "Wel- 
come" and  the  inner  and  outer  circles 
of  the  bed  were  planted  with  sweet 
alyssum,  the  clock  numbers  of  santo- 
Una,  the  hands  of  alternanthera,  the 
star  of  achyranthes  and  the  filling  of 
lobelia.  The  eyes  and  nose  of  the  elk 
were  red  achyranthes.  Mr.  O'CarroU  re- 
ceived many  compliments  on  the  effect 
produced. 

Among  the  visitors  July  12  were 
Charles  Eathjen,  Janesville,  Wis.; 
George  F.  Crabb,  Grand  Rapids,  Mich., 
and  Mr.  Miller,  of  the  Burlington  Flo- 
ral Co.,  Burlington,  Wis.  Alpha  Elber-

No  one  can  complain  of  the  usual  let- 
down of  business  which,  as  a  rule,  is 
so  much  in  evidence  at  this  period  of

tinues good.  Cut  flowers  from  green- 
houses are  exceptionally  good.  Boses, 
carnations,  gladioli  and  Easter  lilies  in 
Bufl^cient  quantity  reach  the  wholesale 
houses  daily.  Among  the  new  flowers,

on  business  and  many  orders  for  fall 
weddings  have  been  booked. 

Fred  Burki,  president  of  the  Pitts- 
burgh Cut  Flower  Co.,  wrote  from  Los 
Angeles,  Cal.,  July  3,  that  he  is  grad- 
ually coming  around,  but  slowly.  It 
niay  surprise  some  of  Mr.  Burki 's 
friends  to  read  this  report.  For  the  last 
year  he  has  lived  in  California,  where 


he  expected  to  regain  his  former  health.

The  Market. 


Business  was  not  particularly  good 
last  week.  While  there  was  no  over- 
supply  of  stock,  still  there  was  no  de- 
mand. The  only  thing  that  did  move 
was  roses  and  that  was  due  to  the  fact 
that  they  were  scarcest.  Lilies  now  are 
moving  fairly  well  and  are  bringing  an 
adequate  price,  the  best  selling  for 
$12.50  per  hundred.  The  growers  seem 
to  be  throwing  the  carnations  out, 
judging  from  the  looks  of  arrivals. 

The  first  asters  and  buddleia  arrived 
and  went  fairly  well.     Some  especially 


fancy  rubrum  lilies  sold  well  because 
of  their  scarcity.  Scabiosa,  catchfly, 
field  daisies  and  gaillardias  are  the  gar- 
den flowers  arriving,  but  they  find  only 
a  fair  market. 

Good  outdoor  gladioli  arrived  last 
week  and  went  well;  among  the  leading 
varieties  were  Schwaben,  Mrs.  Francis 
King  and  Pendleton. 

Shasta  daisies  are  still  coming  in,  but 
they  are  of  poor  quality  and  do  not  find 
a  ready  sale.

PHILADELPHIA. 


The  Market. 

Last  week  was  disappointing — June 
had  been  so  active.  July  a  year  ago 
was  so  brisk  that  hopes  for  this  month 
ran  high.  Perhaps  these  hopes  had 
their  effect  on  the  supply.  It  certainly 
was  unusually  large.  The  demand,  on 
the  other  hand,  was  light,  lighter  than 
the  demand  of  a  year  ago. 

There  were  three  strong  features  of 
the  supply:  The  large  number  of  lilies, 
the  immense  crop  of  roses  and  the  un- 
usual number  of  carnations  for  so  late 
in  the  season. 

A  year  ago  there  were  hardly  any 
lilies  at  this  season.  Now  there  are 
more  than  there  ever  have  been  before 
in  July.  Pretty  nearly  all  of  them  sold, 
but  at  low  figures. 

Just  as  roses  were  helped  at  Memorial 
day  by  the  absence  of  peonies,  so  were 
they  injured  last  week  by  the  presence 
of  lilies.  The  lily  is  a  good  warm 
weather  flower;  it  is  nice  and  clean;  it 
gives  pretty  good  value  at  present  quo- 
tations. The  roses,  while  good  for  the 
season,  aie  not  at  their  best;  so,  when 
there  was  a  choice,  the  lily  was  chosen 
and  the  rose  was  left. 

Carnations  sold  pretty  well,  every- 
thing considered,  but  of  course  a  good 
many  allowances  must  be  made,  for  the 
carnation  is  not  an  especially  good 
warm  weather  flower. 

With  the  door  only  a  crack  open  on 
Monday  and  just  opened  wide  on  Tues- 
day, business  was  much  better  than 
later  in  the  week.  After  stock  had 
been  selected  for  the  orders,  the  quan- 
tity sales  for  the  entire  lot  were  heart- 
rending. Under  such  conditions  prices 
on  even  the  most  desirable  flowers  de- 
clined to  a  point  that  will  soon  cut  off 
part  of  the  supply. 

Gladioli  are  becoming  more  numer- 
ous; many  of  them  are  fine.  Asters 
have  come. 

An  Exalted  Buler. 

The  Pennsylvania  Limited  that  left 
Broad  Street  station  for  Chicago  a  little 
after  1  o  'clock  on  the  afternoon  of  Sun- 
day, July  4,  was  followed  within  the 
brief  period  of  one  half  hour  by  two 
additional  sections  of  ten  cars  each. 
These  twenty  cars  bore  the  Philadel- 
phia Elks  to  the  great  meeting  in  Chi- 
cago. You  have  probably  read  of  their 
doings  in  the  Windy  City,  so  glowingly 
described  in  the  Chicago  papers,  of 
the  prizes  they  won,  of  the  dash  they 
cut.  Did  you  read  ot  the  chariot  drawn

field  and  note  the  changes. 

Here  are  some  of  the  ideas  which 
Samuel  S.  Pennock  kindly  voiced  in 
reply  to  questions: 

"I  am  afraid  that  the  new  roses  have 
been  so  heavily  planted  that  there  is 
danger  of  their  being  overdone,  as  Kil- 
larney  was  a  few  years  ago. 

"I  think  Miat  this  has  been  a  good 
season  for  carnation  plants  in  the  field, 
but  despite  this  I  do  not  think  that 
there  will  be  enough  stock  to  meet  the 
demand. 

"I  think  the  sweet  pea  growers,  as 
a  rule,  have  done  well  and  that  there 
will  be  as  much  space  under  glass  de-

to  be  willing  to  pay  the  price  for  them.

The  Market. 

Eegular  midsummer  dullness  reigns 
in  the  markets  and  business  is  at  a  low 
ebb.  The  majority  of  growers  are  now 
sending  nothing  in  and  most  of  the 
salesmen  in  the  wholesale  and  retail 
establishments  are  either  away  on  vaca- 
tions or  preparing  to  go.  The  amount 
of  stock  coming  in  is  small,  but  it  more 
than  satisfies  the  demand.  This  is  not 
a  grower's  market  and  buyers  can  se- 
cure almost  anything  at  their  own 
figures;  no  reasonable  offer  is  refused 
and  salesmen  are  glad  to  get  away  from 
the  close,  uncomfortable  markets  as 
soon  as  possible.

outdoors  and  good  flowers  sell  well. 
Most  of  them,  however,  carry  short 
stems.  There  is  little  call  for  lilies, 
callas  and  other  flowers,  while  gladioli 
are  more  or  less  neglected.  A  few  small 
asters  made  their  appearance  last  week, 
but  it  will  be  a  few  weeks  before  they 
cut  much  of  a  figure.  Small  supplies 
of  orchids  only  are  available  and  valley 
is  in  little  demand. 

Various  Notes. 

The  leading  coming  event  of  interest 
in  local  circles  is  the  annual  picnic  of 
the  Gardeners'  and  Florists'  Club  at 
beautiful  Cunningham  park,  East  Mil- 
ton, July  22.  An  illustrated  account  of 
this  park  appeared  in  the  Boston  Sun- 
day Herald  for  July  11.  There  are 
eighty  acres  of  beautiful  woodlands, 
fine  open  fields  for  games  and  com- 
modious buildings  for  shelter  in  case  of 
rain.  While  most  of  the  members  and 
their  families  will  make  the  trip  in 
automobiles,  the  park  can  be  reached  by 
electric  roads  leading  from  Andrew 
square,  Eggleston  square,  Dudley 
street  or  Forest  Hills  to  Mattapan  or 
Milton  Lower  Mills,  where  transfers 
may  be  had  to  other  lines  which  pass 
the  park.  It  is  planned  to  start  some  of 
the  baseball  games  as  near  10:30  a.  m. 
as  possible.  An  adjournment  will  be 
made  for  lunch,  which  will  be  served 
under  a  grove  of  stately  trees  at  1 
o'clock.  A  record  attendance  is  ex- 
pected. 

The  outlook  for  bituminous  coal  for 
New  England  industries  is  bad.  Nor- 
mal requirements  are  25,000,000  tons  a 
year  and  arrivals  now  are  at  no  more 
than  the  rate  of  18,000,000  tons.  Great 
alarm  is  felt  by  the  authorities  and  it

believes  in  early  planting  and  already 
has  120,000  young  stock  in  the  beds, 
with  about  30,000  more  to  follow.  In 
addition  to  good  standard  varieties  like 
Pink  Delight,  Benora,  Ward,  Matchless, 
Bosette  and  others,  he  has  a  number  of 
fine  seedlings,  of  which  he  has  large 
batches.  Some  of  these  are  likely  to 
be  more  heard  of  in  the  near  future. 
The  Dolansky-McDonald  Co.  handles  all

George  W.  Goold,  of  Sussex,  N.  B., 
was  a  caller  last  week.  He  is  a  veteran 
of  the  world  war  and  spent  at  its  con- 
clusion nearly  a  year  with  the  noted 
firm  of  London  landscape  architects, 
Milner,  Son  &  White,  who  carry  out  con- 
tracts in  countries  as  far  away  as  India, 
South  Africa  and  continental  Europe. 
Mr.  Goold,  with  his  father,  plans  to  de- 
velop the  landscape  and  nursery  depart- 
ment at  his  home  and  while  in  Boston 
visited  the  leading  nurseries,  pnvate 
estates  and  parkways,  the  Arnold 
Arboretum  and  landscape  architects. 
On  his  way  home  he  planned  to  visit 
the  Bar  Harbor  Nurseries,  on  Mount 
Desert  island,  Me. 

While  the  attacks  of  the  gypsy  moth 
are  less  severe  than  usual  in  the  near 
vicinity  of  Boston,  a  few  miles  out  the 
destruction  is  worse  than  ever  before. 
In  the  Blue  Hills  reservation  miles  of 
woodland  are  almost  defoliated  and 
many   other   sections  are  in   the   same 

condition.  ,  ,.       i. 

Ernest  H.  Wilson,  assistant  director 
of  the  Arnold  Arboretum,  sailed  July  8 
on  a  2-year  world  tour  in  the  interests 
of  the  arboretum.  His  wife  and  daugh- 
ter accompanied  him  and  will  stay  in 
England  while  he  is  touring  the  world. 
The  arboretum  has  decided  not  to  at- 
tempt the  introduction  of  any  new 
plants  while  the  present  Quarantine  37 
remains  unmodified.  It  seems  most  un- 
fortunate that  the  invaluable  work 
which  the  arboretum  is  doing  in  the 
diBsemination  of  hardy  plants  from  all 
parts  of  the  world  should  be  so  largely 
nullified  by  the  present  autocratic  Fed- 
eral Horticultural  Board,  which  con- 
tains not  a  solitary  horticulturist.

genial  and  hustling  manager,  has 
shipped  away  many  thousands  of  be- 
gonias of  late.  The  demand  for  these 
seems  insatiable.  There  are  thousands 
of  cyclamens  and  begonias  which  are 
retained  for  Thanksgiving  and  Christ- 
mas trade  and  these  never  looked  more 
promising  at  this  season. 

From  present  indications,  Boston  will 
have  the  largest  and  finest  gladiolus  dis- 
play in  its  history  when  the  American 
Gladiolus  Society  meets  here  August  14 
and  15.  Crops  in  the  fields,  thanks  to

The  Market. 

The  extremely  warm  weather  did  not 
help  business  any  last  week.  Although 
some  of  the  best  roses  and  sweet  peas 
which  have  been  on  the  market  for 
some  time  came  in,  it  did  not  take  the 
heat  long  to  kill  all  signs  of  life  in 
them.  Some  especially  fine  gladioli  and 
lilies  were  on  the  market  last  week. 
The  market  was  overcrowded  with 
greens  during  the  latter  part  of  the 
week. 

Club  Meeting. 

The  Washington  Florists'  Club  held 
its  monthly  meeting  July  6.  The  regu- 
lar business  was  transacted  and  plans 
for  the  annual  meeting  of  the  Chrysan- 
themum Society  of  America  were  dis- 
cussed. Z.  D^  Blackistone  was  ap- 
pointed chairman  of  the  committee  on 
arrangements. 

Much  attention  was  given  to  the  an- 
nual summer  outing,  which  is  to  be  held 
July  28  at  Great  Falls.  Elaborate  plans 
have  been  made  for  the  day,  including 
everything  good  to  eat,  baseball  and  a 
good  athletic  program. 

J.  Harper  Hetherington,  president, 
presided  at  the  meeting. 

Vaxious  Notes.

The  Market. 

The  slack  summer  season  is  now  com- 
ing on  and,  with  the  exception  of  fu- 
neral work,  business  is  dull.  Carnations 
are  still  plentiful.  Eoses  are  also  plen- 
tiful and  at  the  present  time  are  a  glut 
on  the  market.  Other  greenhouse  flow- 
ers are  about  gone,  with  the  exception 
of  some  new-crop  sweet  peas.  Garden 
flowers  are  plentiful  and  are  used  in 
both  funeral  work  and  centerpieces,  as 
well  as  fancy  baskets. 

Various  Notes. 

C.  L.  Humphrey,  of  Zanesville,  was 
in  Columbus  recently. 

Charles  W.  Felton,  of  Cleveland,  was 
in  Columbus  last  week  inspecting  the 
flower  stores  here  and  looking  for  some 
new  ideas.  Mr.  Felton  says  that  his 
advertisement  in  the  telegraph  delivery 
section  of  The  Review  is  his  greatest 
business  getter. 

J.  A.  Martin  motored  to  Cleveland 
July  4  and  had  a  successful  trip. 

A.  E.  Dern,  of  Mineral  Wells,  Tex., 
was  here  to  buy  stock  and  also  to  visit 
old  friends  in  Columbus  and  Circleville. 
Mr.  Dern  has  not  been  in  this  section 
of  the  country  for  many  years.  Circle- 
ville was  his  former  home. 

Leo  Miller  did  not  return  to  Columbus 
with  the  Shriners'  convention  special. 
He  will  remain  in  California  for  several 
weeks  with  his  wife  and  daughter. 

Mr.  and  Mrs.  Thompson  spent  July  4 
in  Marion,  O. 

Senator  Harding's  front  porch  cam- 
paign will  boom  business  for  the  florists 
in  Marion,  as  he  will  be  home  during 
this  entire  time.  Upon  his  return  to 
Marion  July  4,  he  found  his  residence 
banked  with  beautiful  floral  offerings. 
Many  of  these  were  made  by  Blake's. 
Several  large  boxes  of  flowers  were  de- 
livered to  Marion  from  Thomas  J.  Lud- 
wig's,  Columbus.  J.  W.  T.

Lack  of  water  is  the  most  probable 
cause  of  your  customers*  hydrangeas 
losing  leaves  and  foliage.    These  plants 


are  quite  thirsty  subjects  and  must  re- 
ceive an  abundant  supply  of  water  or 
they  will  soon  go  to  pieces.  It  would 
be  well  in  future  to  impress  upon  pur- 
chasers the  necessity  of  keeping  these 
plants  damp  at  the  root;  more  than  one 
watering  a  day  may  be  necessary  in  a 


warm  room.  The  French  hydrangeas 
force  much  better  than  the  old  ots^sa, 
but  lack  the  substance  of  the  latter. 
They  will  not  withstand  direct  sunlight 
without  burning  and  should  be  given  a 
shaded  position  in  both  the  greenhouse 
and  the  dwelling.  C.  W.

Pacific  Coast  Department 


Lynden,  Wash, — Mrs,  Anna  M.  Gas- 
kill  is  starting  in  business, 

Alameda,  Cal. — E.  Wagner  has  been 
sick  for  several  months  and  unable  to 
attend  to  his  business, 

Sawtelle,  Cal,— The  personnel  of  the 
Los  Angeles  Geranium  Go.  has  been 
changed  and  Culver  Bros,  no  longer  are 
the  proprietors. 

EUBEKA,  CAL. 

Eosaia  Bros.,  of  Seattle,  Wash.,  have 
purchased  the  interest  of  the  Humboldt 
National  bank  in  the  property  of  the 
Cottage  Gardens  Nurseries,  of  which  the 
late  Charles  Willis  Ward  was  president. 
Since  the  concern  was  taken  over  by 
its  creditors,  it  has  been  managed  by  G. 
Van  den  Abeele,  receiver.  The  Hum- 
boldt National  bank  foreclosed  a  claim 
of  $28,206.37  and  have  sold  their  inter- 
est in  the  foreclosure  to  the  Seattle 
florists.  The  property  involved  is  worth 
$350,000,  it  is  stated,  including  sixty- 
five  acres  of  land  and  125,000  square 
feet  of  glass.  The  stockholders  have  a 
yea,r's  time  in  which  to  redeem  the 
claim  against  the  property,  and  reports 
that  control  of  the  company  has  already 
passed  into  the  hands  of  the  purchasers 
are  incorrect.  Palermo  F.  Eosaia  came 
from  Seattle  to  close  the  deal. 


LOS  ANGELES,  CAL. 


The  Market. 

Outside  of  funeral  work  there  was 
little  doing  in  the  retail  stores  last  week 
and  a  holiday  feeling  pervaded  the  city. 
July  4  and  5  the  streets  were  deserted 
and  the  best  outlet  for  stock  was  along 
the  boulevards  where  the  automobile 
parties  passed. 

Carnations  keep  up  fair  quality  for 
the  season,  but  they  ship  poorly.  The 
same  applies  to  roses.  White  roses  are 
practically  off  the  market  and  Cecile 
Brunner  is  the  one  rose  arriving  in  any- 
thing like  form.  Asters  are  of  fair 
quality  and  not  so  good  as  at  this  time 
last  year,  though  they  may  improve 
later.  Greens  arc  of  medium  quality 
only. 

Various  Notes. 
Peter  Wolfskill,  of  the  Orchid,  Pasa- 
dena, has  been  under  the  weather  with 
a  severe  attack  of  tonsillitis.  This 
spoiled  his  holiday,  but  he  is  on  the  road 
to  recovery. 

Wright's  Flower  Shop  was  one  place 
at  least  where  there  was  no  let-up  for 
the  holiday.  Saturday  and  Sunday, 
July  3  and  4,  an  extraordinary  number 
of  eastern  wire  orders  for  funeral  work 
came  in,  which  prevented  the  staff  from 
getting  away. 

D.  Fraser,  of  E.  G.  Fraser  &  Son,  Pasa- 
dena, was  in  the  city  last  week  and  re- 
ported big  orders  for  their  seed  of 
Cineraria  stellata,  of  which  they  have 
a  fine  strain.  Mr.  Fraser  is  also  enthu- 
siastic over  their  new  winter-flowering 
stock,  which  is  a  hybrid  of  Beauty  of 
Nice  and  one  of  the  Brampton  vari- 
eties. 

G.  Prechtl,  Montebello,  is  cutting 
some     excellent     Gladiolus     Schwaben, 


which  finds  a  ready  sale.  He  is  also 
cutting  fine  pink  snapdragons  and  re- 
ports a  big  business  in  freesia  bulbs. 

John  Polder,  of  Polder  Bros.,  is  talk- 
ing of  taking  his  vacation  in  Bear 
valley  this  year,  so  the  rainbows  in  Big 
Bear  must  keep  their  eyes  open. 

All  the  principal  wholesale  houses 
closed  July  4  and  5,  giving  the  em- 
ployees a  chance  to  get  away  for  a  day 
or  two,  and  fish  stories  galore  have  re- 
sulted, 

Peter  Eeinberg,  of  Chicago,  was 
among  the  visitors  last  week.  He  and 
Emil  Eeichling,  formerly  a  grower  for 
Mr,  Eeinberg,  were  visiting  the  trade 
here. 

J.  T.  Woods,  of  the  Woods  Floral  Co., 
Handley,  Tex.,  was  a  caller  last  week. 
Mr.  Woods,  with  his  wife  and  daughter, 
are  making  a  tour  of  the  coast  and  they 
say  that  they  would  like  to  stay  longer, 
but  Mr.  Woods  has  to  get  back  to  pre- 
pare for  the  Texas  State  Florists'  Asso- 
ciation convention.        H.  E.  Eichards. 


SAN  FRANCISCO,  CAL. 


The  Market. 

So  far  as  the  supply  of  flowers  is  con- 
cerned, the  situation  has  not  changed 
much  in  the  last  week,  but  demand  has 
dropped  off  somewhat  since  the  close  of 
the  national  Democratic  convention  and 
the  departure  of  many  visitors  from  the 
city,  as  well  as  the  exodus  of  local  resi- 
dents on  their  summer  vacations.  While 
business  is  a  little  quiet,  there  is  small 
inclination  on  the  part  of  the  trade  to 
complain,  considering  that  the  demand 
for  flowers  has  held  up  longer  this  sum- 
mer than  usual. 

Eoses  show  excellent  quality  for  July 
and  there  is  plenty  of  other  good  stock. 
As  is  to  be  expected,  both  roses  and 
carnations  began  to  show  the  effect  of 
the  summer  season  about  the  usual  time, 
but  instead  of  getting  gradually  worse, 
as  has  been  the  case  heretofore,  July 
offerings    are    fully    as    good    as    June

DRIED   FLOWERS 

Now  is  the  time  to  lay  in  your  winter  supply 

Statice— Purple,  white  and  yellow.      AcrocUnium— Daisy-type,  pink.     Helichrysum— Assorted  colors. 
Rhodanthe  —  Pink.  Statice — Russian  or  rat-tailed,  pinkish  lavender. 

We  have  a  large  supply  and  can  furnish  any  quantity. 

Book  your  orders  now. 

These   dried   flowers  are  excellent   for  floral  work.     They   often    prove   a  life-saver  when  stock  is  scarce. 
Send  for  a  small  assorted  box  as  a  sample.    You  will  come  back  for  more.

flowers  were,  with  indications  that  a 
considerable  supply  of  good  roses  will 
be  forthcoming  right  along. 

Gladioli  continue  to  arrive  in  large 
supply  and  the  demand  leaves  nothing 
to  be  desired,  the  daily  offerings  clean- 
ing up  closely.  Asters  are  appearing, 
but  only  in  limited  quantity.  Little 
shipping  is  being  done  as  yet,  because 
of  the  light  supply  and  the  fact  that 
the  first  asters  of  the  season  do  not 
carry  particularly  well  on  long  trips. 
The  outlook  for  a  big  crop  of  asters  is 
fine.  Chrysanthemums  are  a  little  more 
plentiful,  but  they  do  not  get  much  at- 
tention as  yet,  as  they  are  not  suitable 
for  shipping.  Sweet  peas  are  going  off 
rapidly  and  orchids  and  gardenias  are 
also  on  the  short  side  of  the  market. 

Various  Notes. 

N.  F.  Baldocchi,  of  Podesta  &  Bal- 
docchi,  reports  business  holding  up  well 
this  summer.  During  the  Democratic 
convention  his  firm  was  kept  busy  with 
table  decorations  and  the  like,  besides 
supplying  a  stimulated  demand  for  cut 
flowers  as  the  result  of  so  many  visitors 
being  in  town.  Vacations  are  still  in 
progress  at  this  establishment,  five  of 
the  men  being  away  now.  With  his 
partner,  V.  Podesta,  in  Europe,  Br.  Bal- 
docchi does  not  expect  to  get  much  of 
a  vacation  himself,  but  he  hopes  to  get 
away  for  a  few  days. 

Mark  Ebel  was  a  recent  visitor  from 
Sacramento,  Cal.,  and  was  heard  to 
invite  J.  A.  Axell  to  his  place  for  a 
while  this  summer  on  the  assumption 
that  hoeing  or  some  other  mild  outdoor 
exercise  in  the  hot  weather  would  be 
fine  for  reducing.  It  may  be  said,  how- 
ever, that  Mr.  Axell  did  not  accept  the 
invitation  until  after  the  work  proviso 
was  omitted.  Mr.  Ebel  says  that  busi- 
ness is  quite  as  usual  for  this  time  of 
the  year. 

Mr.  Moore,  of  the  Meldrum  Flower 
Shop,  Sacramento,  was  also  in  town  a 
few  days. 

F.  C.  Jaeger,  of  F.  C.  Jaeger  &  Son, 
IS  well  pleased  with  the  initial  business 
in  his  new  wholesale  department.  He 
has  booked  several  standing  orders  and 
is  in  receipt  of  many  inquiries  about 
asters  and  chrysanthemums. 

Henry  Avansino,  manager  of  the  E. 
W.  McLellan  Co.,  expects  asters  to  be 
ready  for  long-distance  shipping  in 
about  ten  days. 

The  trade  received  a  visit  last  week

and  is  pleased  with  the  way  business 
held  up  during  his  absence,  June  being 
one  of  the  best  months  his  store  ever 
had. 

Julius  Eppstein  says  business  at  the 
St.  Francis  hotel  dropped  off  somewhat 
last  week,  but  had  been  good  all  through 
June  and  the  first  few  days  of  July. 

T.  C.  Holmes,  manager  of  the  retail 
store  of  C.  C.  Morse  &  Co.,  expects  to 
leave  shortly  on  a  combined  business 
and  pleasure  trip  to  England,  which  is 
his  native  country.  His  home  was 
formerly  in  Plymouth  and  he  will  spend 
some  time  there,  it  being  his  first  visit 
to  his  parents  in  ten  years.  As  planned, 
his  trip  will  extend  over  a  period  of 
about  three  months.  M.  M.

The  Market. 

Greenhouse-grown  stock  has  given 
way  almost  entirely  to  outside  stock. 
The  hot  weather  of  the  last  two  weeks 
has  caused  a  falling  off  in  the  demand 
for   flowers   outside   of  funeral  work. 

Various  Notes. 

Mrs.  Ella  Grant  Wilson,  of  Cleve- 
land, O.,  was  the  guest  of  the  florists  at 
a  luncheon  at  the  Davenport  hotel  last 
week.  Mrs.  Wilson  is  a  worker  for 
more  publicity  by  cooperative  adver- 
tising of  the  florists  throughout  the 
country. 

Wednesday,  June  30,  the  florists  en- 
tertained visiting  nurserymen  with  a 
trip  to  Liberty  lake  and  a  banquet  held 
at  the  Davenport  hotel.  Samuel  Youn- 
kin  was  chairman  of  the  committee  in 
charge  and  a  fine  program  was  arranged. 
Superintendent  of  Parks  Duncan  gave 
an  illustrated  lecture,  showing  the  prog- 
ress made  in  the  city  parks  in  the  plant- 
ing of  trees  and  shrubs. 

The  annual  picnic  of  the  florists  will 
be  held  July  28  at  Manito  park  and 
plans  arc  under  way  for  an  excellent 
time.

We  have  experienced  a  great  deal  of  trouble  in  mail  service, 
owing  to  the  fact  that  there  are  other  firms  in  our  city  under 
the  name  of  P.  C.  Miller.  This  has  resulted  in  our  mail,  in 
many  instances,  being  delivered  to  the  wrong  address,  thus 
causing  disappointments  to  our  customers  through  delayed 
orders.  We  will  continue  business  under  the  same  man- 
agement and  will  retain  our  motto :

SEATTLE,  WASH. 


The  Market. 

The  double  holiday,  with  its  week-end 
trips  for  so  many  people,  gave  a  de- 
cidedly quiet  turn  to  business  for  the 
last  week  and  the  light  deliveries  of 
most  lines  failed  to  cause  much  of  a 
feeling  of  loss.  Local  deliveries  have 
been  sufficient  to  care  for  all  needs  and 
one  or  two  varieties  of  greens  form  the 
only  items  being  shipped  in  at  this  time. 
There  were  no  new  offerings  received 
during  the  week,  with  the  exception  of 
several  new  varieties  of  gladioli,  which 
sold  well. 

There  has  been  a  run  of  table  decora- 
tions for  teas  and  other  social  events 
and  several  elaborate  weddings  have 
held  the  attention  of  the  trade,  but,  in 
general,  business  has  been  confined  to 
funeral  work,  cut  flowers  and  baskets. 
The  funeral  work  has  been  sufficient  to 
prevent  much  loss  in  stock. 

The  deliveries  of  peonies  have 
slackened  considerably,  but  the  same  is 
true  of  the  demand,  and  gladioli  and 
snapdragons  can  be  considered  the 
leaders  among  the  summer  flowers.  Iris 
has  also  been  popular.  Water  lilies  are 
plentiful  and  were  used  effectively  with 
orchids  in  several  of  the  more  elaborate 
wedding  bouquets  made  up  lately.  They 
are  still  as  popular  as  ever  in  window 
displays.  Canterbury  bells  are  in  more 
plentiful  supply  and  are  being  freely 
used.  In  iris,  the  brown  variety  ^  is 
more  plentiful  now  than  either  Spanish 
or  the  large  purple  stock,  although  there 
is  enough  Spanish  to  care  for  all  cur- 
rent needs. 

Francis  Brunner  and  Ulrich  Brunner 
roses  are  in  heavy  supply  and  the  latter 
is  selling  especially  well.  Ophelia,  Ward 
and  Columbia  are  also  plentiful,  with 
one  or  two  growers  offering  commercial 
quantities  of  Lady  Hillingdon,  Premier 
and  White  Killarney.  One  dealer  also 
showed  Madame  Edouard  Herriot  ef- 
fectively. 

There  was  a  good  demand  for  ferns 
during  the  last  fortnight,  especially  the 
smaller  sizes.  Fern  balls  have  also  sold 
well.  Aside  from  ferns,  potted  plants 
have   been   in   slow    demand   and  light 

supply-    .  .         .  u       1, 

Carnations  are  improving  each  week, 
both  as  to  color  and  strength  of  stem, 
and  the  present  deliveries  leave  little  to 
be  desired.  Gypsophila  and  similar 
flowers  are  being  used  extensively. 

There  are  plenty  of  orchids  to  fill 
current  needs,  but  the  supply  of  both 
gardenias  and  lily  of  the  valley  has 
been  light.  Bachelor's  buttons  have 
proved  popular  novelties  and  there  has 
also  been  a  good  call  for  the  ordinary 
California  poppies.  Gloxinias  have  also 
been  shown  by  a  number  of  florists. 

Various  Notes. 

Charles  E.  Sullivan,  head  of  the  tele- 
graph department  of  the  Woodlawn 
Flower  Shop,  is  away  on  a  three  weeks ' 
vacation.  He  plans  to  visit  a  number 
of  places  before  returning  _  to  work. 
Several  good-sized  decorations  were 
handled  by  this  concern  during  the  last 

Charles  Shellgrain,  of  San  Francisco, 
called  on  the  ti-ade  here  last  week.  He

The  Market. 

Vacation  time  has  set  in  without  any 
doubt.  This  was  materially  emphasized 
last  week  by  the  general  falling  off  in 
business  among  the  downtown  stores. 
Except  for  funeral  work,  the  majority 
of  them  could  have  been  closed  most  of 
the  time.  But  it  is  seasonable  and  ex- 
pected. 

Many  of  the  stores  are  preparing  for 
renovations  of  a  general  character,  al- 
though no  radical  changes  arc  contem- 
plated. 

There  is  an  abundant  sujjply  of  about 
everything  in  the  market  at  this  season 
and  it  moves  slowly  at  low  prices. 

Various  Notes.

WHAT  THE  LEADERS  IN  THE  TRADE  ARE  DOING 


WEDDING  IN  ART  GALLERY. 


Large  California  Decoration. 

A  June  unparalleled  in  the  number  of 
weddings  and  the  amount  of  money 
spent  for  flowers  for  such  occasions,  and 
the  reports  of  the  principal  flower 
markets  throughout  the  country  to  the 
efifect  that  more  stock  was  used  this 
June  than  ever  before  in  that  month,  all 
tend  to  excite  the  curiosity  as  to  what 
splendorous  affairs  some  of  these  wed- 
dings must  have  been.  On  scanning  the 
news  letters  of  the  different  cities,  one 
sees  the  accounts  of  wonderful  weddings, 
some  supposed  to  be  more  lavish  than 
any  before. 

A  wedding  that  is  said  to  have  been 
unequaled  in  size  in  southern  California 
was  that  of  Miss  Barbara  Sutherland 
Scoville,  at  Pasadena,  Cal.,  June  19. 
The  decorations  for  this  affair  were 
executed  by  Siebrecht's  House  of  Flow- 
ers. The  marriage  was  performed  in  the 
residence  of  the  young  lady's  parents, 
which  is  a  palatial  home,  one  of  the 
finest  in  Pasadena. 

The  accompanying  photograph  shows 
the  approach  to  the  art  gallery  in  the 
home,  where  the  ceremony  was  held. 
The  distance  of  the  approach  was  over 
100  feet.  The  art  gallery  was  trans- 
formed into  a  chapel  and  a  temporary 
altar     was     constructed.       About     200 


placed  at  intervals  along  the  approach 
and  were  connected  with  broad  satin 
ribbon  and  surmounted  with  huge 
bunches  of  Easter  lilies  and  white 
roses,  tied  with  long  bows  and  long 
streamers  of  satin  ribbon. 

Aisle  Posts  Guide  Way. 

There  were  three  rooms  along  the  ap- 
proach to  the  chapel.  The  entrance  of 
the  first  room  was  decorated  with  dark 
pink  asters,  gladioli  and  Eussell  roses 
and  the  entrances  of  the  other  rooms 
were  decorated  with  pink  gladioli, 
Columbia  roses  and  larkspur.  The  third 
room  was  decorated  with  Ophelia  roses, 
pink  sweet  peas  and  peonies  and  the 
chapel  was  decorated  entirely  in  white. 

The  veranda,  leading  from  one  of  the 
rooms,  was  transformed  into  a  summer 
garden,  with  bay  trees,  palms  and  ferns. 
Each  end  of  the  veranda  was  closed  in 
with  double  white  lattice  gates  fes- 
tooned with  running  vines  of   roses. 


ACKNOWLEDGING   RECEIPT. 

Undoubtedly  the  rapid  growth  of 
telegraph  business  has  brought  this  item 
of  income  to  an  important  position  on 
florists'  books.  It  will  become  more 
important  as  the  education  of  the  public 
progresses  and  as  more  detailed  effort 
on  the  part  of  the  trade  adds  to  the  ease 
of  transaction.     Many  points  are  over- 


Floral  Atsle  Formed  Through  Art  Gallery  for  California  Wedding 


candles  were  used  for  light.  This 
entrance  to  the  chapel  was  arched  with 
roses,  Easter  lilies  and  peonies.  The 
altar  was  massed  with  Easter  lilies, 
peonies  and   Bride   gladioli. 

Aisle   posts,  twenty   in   number,   were 


looked  by  those  who  have  not  special- 
ized to  any  extent  on  this  business.  One 
of  them  is  the  proper  and  prompt  ac- 
knowledgment of  all  orders  from 
brother  florists.  A  postcard — it  doesn  't 
need  to  be  a  formal  letter — mailed  aa 


soon  as  a  telegram  is  received  assures 
the  sender  of  the  order  that  it  has  been 
taken  care  of.  Furthermore,  it  carries 
assurance  that  the  receiving  florist  got 
the  correct  information — name,  address, 
price,  etc. — by  wire. 

An  easy  way  to  take  care  of  this 
important  detail  is  to  have  your  printer 
run  off  a  few  hundred  postcards,  the 
number  depending  on  the  frequency 
with  which  you  receive  telegraph  orders. 
On  the  card  may  be  printed  everything 
except  the  few  facts  which  vary  with 
the  individual  order.  Aldous  &  Son,  at 
Iowa  City,  la.,  have  a  postcard  form 
which  reads  as  follows: 

Iowa   City,    Iowa 

Aldous  &  Son,  Florist,  F.  T.  1)..  112  So. 
Dubuque  St.,  opposite  Hotel  Jefferson,  are 
pleased  to  acknowledge  receipt  of  your  order 
for 


Kindly   accept   our   thanks   for   the   favor,    whicb 
shall   receive   prompt   and  careful  attention. 

And  across  the  bottom  of  the  card, 
in  script,  appears,  "Say  It  with  Flow- 
ers." 

Many  florists  use  a  card  somewhat 
similar.  Many,  however,  have  nothing 
of  the  sort.  "The  latter  should  adopt 
some  such  form  for  acknowledging  tele- 
graph orders  if  they  receive  them  at  all 
frequently. 

BUSINESS  FAILURES  CLIMBING. 

Realization  of  the  increased  diflBculty 
many  firms  are  meeting  in  doing  busi- 
ness should  make  florists  more  vigilant 
in  their  collections  at  the  present  time. 

The  tendency  toward  increase  in  fail- 
ures that  has  lately  developed  in  vari- 
ous sections  of  the  country  finds  rather 
sharp  reflection  in  the  insolvency  state- 
ment for  the  six  months  just  ended, 
3,352  commercial  defaults,  with  aggre- 
gate liabilities  of  $86,743,876,  being  re- 
ported to  R.  G.  Dun  &  Co.  during  that 
period.  Wliile  the  number  of  reverses 
is  the  smallest  for  the  first  half  of  any 
year  since  1881,  yet  tlie  margin  of  de- 
crease from  the  figures  of  earlier  years 
has  narrowed  appreciably,  and  a  de- 
cided enlargement  of  amount  of  indebt- 
edness now  appears.  Comparing  with 
the  remarkably  favorable  exhibit  of 
1919,  wliich  discloses  only  3,462  failures 
for  the  half  year,  a  numerical  reduc- 
tion of  three  and  two-tenths  per  cent 
is  revealed;  but  this  year's  liabilities 
are  twenty-six  and  two-tenths  j)er  cent 
in  excess  of  last  year's  total  of  $68,- 
710,886,  and  are  little  more  than  one 
I)er  cent  below  those  of  the  first  six 
months  of  1918. 

June  brought  674  insolvencies,  which 
is  the  highest  number  of  any  month 
at  all  in  a  vear  and  a  half.

other  fellows'  investments  lonp

There  are  hundreds,  yes,  thousands  of 
florists  throutjlioiit  the  country  who 
might  well  follow  Mr.  Five's  lead.  We 
arc  sure  that  if  they  looked  upon  our 
movement  in  the  right  light,  we  should 
not  have  to  make  so  many  appeals  for 
aid.  Of  course,  we  know  that  in  tlje 
main  forgctfulness  is  the  reason  for 
seeming  apathy.  More  good  intentions 
are  shelved  than  arc  put  into  effect. 
There  is  only  one  way  to  get  them  off 
the  shelf,  as  we  all  know.  That  shelf- 
load  for  the  publicity  campaign  ought 
by  now  to  be  at  the  dumpirig  point. 
Why  not  get  your  good  intention  into 
active  shape — let  it  materialize?  You 
could  not  set  it  to  work  at  a  better 
time. 

Our  committee— your  committee — is 
now  worried  with  the  problem  of  com- 
pleting arrangements  for  the  publicity 
which  we  shall  need  so  much  later  on. 
It  is  not  the  development  of  a  plan 
that  causes  worry  so  much  as  the  put- 
ting of  that  plan  into  effect.  The  finan- 
cial end  of  it  is  a  serious  undertaking. 
The  publishers  of  the  periodicals  we  aim 
to  use  are  obliged  to  begin  work  on  their 
issues  many  weeks  in  advance  of  their 
publication  dates.  They  have  their  own 
problems  to  work  out,  problems  which 
in  these  days  are  more  or  less  serious. 
They  must  prepare  well  in  advance  of 
their  dates  and  if  they  are  to  be  of  serv- 
ice to  us  we  must  fall  in  line  with  their 
preparations.  We  must  make  our  con- 
tracts at  the  time  they  arrange  for  a 
particular  issue  and  our  money  to  cover 


That   Piece  of  Blotting 

Paper 

Last  week's  Ad  was  about  how  the  by-products 
of  a  business  may  hold  more  business  than  the 
main  ones. 

Which  fact  was  going  to  prove  this  week  by  a 
piece  of  blotting  paper. 

Blotting  paper  happened. 

Happened  because  of  a  blundering  workman  who 
mixed  his  paper  mixture  wrong. 

When  the  boss  tried  to  write  on  it,  the  ink 
spread  all  out. 

He  was  so  furious  he  upset  the  ink  bottle,  and 
that  fcol  paper  just  drank  it  rp. 

At  once  he  saw  how  fine  it  would  be  to  have 
paper  with  an  ink  thirst  like  thfit,  cut  up  in 
strips  for  diying  ink  writing. 

He  started  making  a  little  on  the  side  as  a  by- 
product.    Soon  he  was  making  nothing  else. 

His  by-product  had  become  the  main  one. 

Every  business  has  both  the  by  and  main  produ;ts. 

A  blunder  may  prove  which  is  which;  but  more 

often  it  is  head  work. 

Just  plain,  old-fashioned  using  one's  head. 

One  snowy  night  last  .January,  we  discovered  a 

by-product  of  our   business  that   looks   mighty 

good  to  us. 

Some  day  I'll  tell  you  the  particulars 

Have  a  notion  they  would  bring  you  more  F.  '1'.

tliese  contracts  must  be  in  sight  also  at 
this  time.  We  cannot  expect  the  com- 
mittee to  incur  liabilities  they  might 
not  be  able  to  discharge. 

What  Will  You  Invest? 

Now,  it  is  just  this  way:  If  all  those 
florists  who  have  good  intentions  and 
the  will  power  to  put  them  into  effect 


will  act  quickly  and  let  the  secretary 
know  what  can  be  expected  of  them,  the 
committee  can  accomplish  much  to  the 
advantage  of  thi  campaign.  They  can 
put  their  plans  over  without  disappoint- 
ment through  changes  compelled  by 
limited  resources.  Our  slogan,  "8ay  It 
with  Flowers,"  is  too  good  and  too  val- 
uable to  be  trifled  with.    Our  campaign

in  fact,  we  might  easily  substantiate  a 
claim  to  first  place  among  all  similar

reached  the  goal  which  has  been  our

60  years'  experience  in  the  florist  basiness  snarantees 

efficiency  to  take  care  of  all  orders.    20  per  cent  allowed. 

a  few  weeks  ago,  have  dropped  out. 
Green  goods  continue  to  be  plentiful. 
A  normal  market  for  the  first  week  in 
July  is  the  verdict  of  everyone. 

A  Telegraph  Tale. 

The  writer  called  at  Samuel  Feast 
&  Sons'  one  day  last  week  and  was  en- 
joying a  chat  with  Mrs.  Fannie  Hill, 
there  being  no  customers  in  the  store  at 
the  time.  We  were  talking  about  flo- 
rists' telegraph  delivery  when  a  gentle- 
man walked  in  and  left  an  order;  in 
fact,  he  left  orders  for  each  week  dur- 
ing the  summer.  After  the  cards  had 
been  arranged  and  the  bill  paid  he  said, 
"Now,  Mrs.  Hill,  you  will  receive  a 
telegram  each  week  telling  you  how 
and  where  these  orders  are  to  be  sent." 
Mrs.  Hill  immediately  proceeded  to  in- 
form him  that  the  firm  was  a  member 
of  the  F.  T.  D.,  and  we  found  out  that 
this  live  business  man  was  the  presi- 
dent of  one  of  the  largest  oil  companies 
in  Oklahoma  and  knew  as  much  about 
the  F.  T.  D.  as  we  did.  He  said  his 
company  sent  a  great  many  flowers  and 
had  used  the  F.  T.  D.  service  a  great 
deal;  that  while  some  of  it  was  most 
satisfactory,  some  of  it  was  rotten.  He 
informed  us  that  he  had  been  in  Wash- 
ington and  knew  George  C.  Shaffer's 
service  from  experience,  and  as  he 
wanted  tlie  same  thing  in  Baltimore  and 
was  familiar  with  Feast  service,  he 
thought  lie  would  slip  over  and  arrange 
for  his  orders.  Well,  your  scribe  learned 
two  things:  First,  the  way  big  cor- 
porations are  beginning  to  use  flowers, 
for  that  is  what  tliese  orders  were  for, 
and  second,  the  care  you  should  use  in 
regard  to  F.  T.  D.  orders.  This  man 
was  too  big  to  condemn  the  whole  sys- 
stem;  he  said  it  was  a  fine  thing,  but 
that  when  it  was  possible,  he  preferred 
to  order  where  he  knew  his  order  would 
get  thought  and  attention.  Anyone  who 
heard  that  man  place  his  order  for 
flowers  could  not  but  realize  that  it 
was  just  as  much  a  part  of  his  business 
as  buj'ing  and  selling  oil;  and  remember, 
he  traveled  forty  miles  to  transact  this 
business  personally. 

Various  Notes. 

At  John  Cook's,  Herman  Cook  said 
business  had  settled  down  to  the  regular 
summer  routine,  that  funeral  work  and 
sick  room  boxes  constituted  the  prin- 
cipal business.  As  I  looked  back  into 
the  workroom   and  saw  everyone  busy

there,  I  remarked  that  everyone  seemed 
to  have  something  to  do.  "Well,"  he 
said,  "our  staff  is  not  so  large  as  usual; 
vacations  have  now  started,  and  then, 
you  know,  there  is  no  dull  season  now 
in  the  florists'  business  in  the  sense  that 
there  used  to  be."  The  reason  for  this 
he  believed  to  be  the  fact  that  there  is  a 
new  class  of  patrons,  those  who  became 
wealthy  during  the  war  and  are  still 
immersed  in  business  and  cannot  get 
away  for  the  summer. 

I  had  heard  our  old  friend,  Wm.  J. 
Halliday,  had  been  sick;  so  I  went  over 
to  inquire  for  him.  Miss  Groves  was  in 
charge  and  everybody  will  be  glad  to 
hear  that  Mr.  Halliday  is  much  im- 
proved and  well  on  the  way  to  recovery. 
The  flower  block  on  North  Charles  street 
does  not  seem  just  right  with  Mr.  Halli- 
day's  genial  countenance  missing.  He 
has  so  long  been  a  part  of  this  block 
that  many  of  the  public  look  for  him  in 
much  the  same  manner  that  they  ad- 
mire   the   always   beautiful   windows. 

Charles  Holdsteadt,  of  Hamilton,  un- 
derwent a  minor  operation  at  St. 
Joseph's  hospital  last  week.  The  op- 
oration  was  quite  successful  and  Mr. 
Holdsteadt  is  doing  well.  Tate.

pleasing,  as  stoek  is  of  poor  quality 
and  the  demand  light.  The  growers  are 
now  removing  the  old  stock  and  plant- 
ing new  and  the  market  will  depend 
principally  upon  outdoor  stock  for  the 
next  few  weeks. 

Roses  from  outside  are  among  the  beat 
at  present,  but  these  shipments  are  light 
and  good  quality  stock  is  scarce.  Car- 
nations arc  holding  up  fairly  well  and 
have  a  good  demand  in  all  varieties, 
especially  in  white.

takes  place  at  the  next  meeting  of  the 
club. 

Professor  H.  C.  Irish,  superintendent 
of  floriculture  at  the  Missouri  state 
fair,  said  that  he  hoped  to  see  many  of 
the  local  florists  attending  this  fair; 
the  dates  are  August  14  to  21  and  the 
place  Sedalia,  Mo. 

Mr.  Ammann  tlien  gave  the  members 
a  few  minutes'  talk  on  the  National 
Flower  Growers'  Association  and  his 
visit  to  Kansas  City,  Mo.,  recently;  his 
remarks  were  received  with  much  in- 
terest. Mr.  Ammann  was  given  a  rising 
vote  of  thanks  for  the  afternoon's  en- 
tertainment. The  meeting  then  ad- 
journed and  tlie  members  were  invited 
to  partake  of  excellent  refreshments 
served  by  Mrs.  Ammann  and  her  daugh- 
ters. Following  the  refreshments  the 
members  inspected  the  large  range  of 
greenhouses,  in  which  25,000  roses  are 
planted  under  the  management  of  L. 
E.  Smith;  everything  was  found  in  fine 
condition.  On  their  way  to  the  waiting 
special  car,  the  members  also  made  a 
tour  of  the  range  of  the  Woodlawn 
Gardens,  of  which  Henry  Blixen  is  in 
charge.     These  were  also  commended. 

After  a  photograph  had  been  taken  of 
the  members  and  the  car,  the  members 
boarded  the  car  with  three  cheers  for 
Mr.  Ammann  and  arrived  home  at  6:30 
p.  m.  All  say  that  the  stay-at-homes 
missed  a  rare  treat  when  they  failed  to 
take  advantage  of  this  opportunity.

A  great  deal  of  business  was  trans- 
acted during  the  evening.  The  coal 
situation  came  up  for  a  discussion;  the 
big  majority  had  their  orders  for  coal 
in,  but  no  deliveries  had  as  yet  been 
made.  Publicity  next  came  up;  the  dis- 
cussion resulted  in  much  good. 

The  National  Flower  Growers'  Asso-

delegates  appointed  to  attend  the  meet- 
ing at  Cleveland  during  the  S.  A.  F.

and  would  bring  full  reports  of  the

valuable  talk  by  Jcthn  II.  Kellofj^  on 
"Native  Planting  Materials."  After 
the  meeting  the  members  were  taken 
on  a  tour  of  inspection  through  the 
most  interesting  ]»arts  of  the  j)ark, 
guided  by  Krnest  Strehle,  superintend- 
ent of  parks,  and  John  Moritz,  in  charge 
of  the  greenhouses,  and  a  most  enjoy- 
able morning  was  spent. 

The  next  meeting  will  be  of  great 
importance  to  all  members.  Secretary 
Hugo  Schaff  will  send  notices  as  to  time 
and  place  of  meeting.

Picnic  at  Pleasant  Hill. 

The  picnic  given  by  the  Pineliurst 
Floral  Co.  at  Pleasant  Hill,  Mo.,  July 
5,  was  one  of  the  first  social  affairs  that 
the  local  florists  have  had  for  a  number 
of  years.  Nearly  200  florists  and  their 
families  and  employees  attended.  The 
day  was  perfect  and  everybody  had  a 
good  time.  Many  of  the  guests  drove 
down  in  their  cars,  but  those  who  did 
not  were  met  at  the  train  and  all  as- 
sembled at  the  main  greenhouse.  After 
an  inspection  of  the  range,  all  went  to 
Baldwin's  lake,  a  picturesque  spot  a 
short  distance  from  town.  Lunch  was 
served  here,  consisting  of  fried  chicken, 
sandwiches,  coffee,  cake  and  ice  cream. 

After  lunch  J.  F.  Ammann,  secretary 
of  the  National  Flower  Growers'  Asso- 
ciation, spoke  on  the  advantages  of  co- 
operation among  growers,  the  benefits 
of  publicity  to  every  branch  of  the 
business  and  the  great  results  that  are 
sure  to  come  from  closer  relationship  of 
the  various  branches  of  the  business. 
Cooperation  is  the  watchword,  Mr. 
Ammann   said,  and   through   it    florists

have  been  in  the  habit  of  buying  at  any 
and  all  times.  Tlie  success  of  the  re- 
tail florists  in  Sunday  elosiiifj  the  year 
around  has  given  the  greenhouse  men 
hope  that  in  time  they,  too,  will  have 
one  day's  rest. 

E.     A.     O'Connell 's    flower     shop     is 
scarcely  complete,  but  has  been  doing 
good   business.      It  has  been   open   less 
than  a  week  and  has  had  twenty-eight 
funeral    orders.      Mr.    O'Connell    is    as- 
sistant   county    clerk    and     also    writes 
bonds  and  insurance  of  all  kinds.     His 
brother,   W.   G.   O'Connell,    is   manager 
of  the  store  and  James  Biggam   is  ile- 
sigiier. 

Cladioli  and  garden  flowers  from 
Henry  Kusik  &  Co.  were  ])articularly 
good  last  week.  They  have  been  short 
on  roses,  as  the  heat  has  made  them  soft 
and    not   much   good   for  shipping. 

The  first  garden  flowers  are  arriving 
from  Rock's  Flower  Ciardens.  It  is  just 
three  months  since  the  company  took 
possession  of  this  ]iroperty.  It  will 
soon  begin  to  cut  some  fine  dahlias. 

L.  G.  Rrown  's  home  was  robbed  re- 
cently. Between  $40  and  .$50  in  cash, 
three  watches  and  several  pieces  of 
jewelry  were  taken. 

Miss  Mayr  has  returned  to  Chicago 
after  a   visit  with  Miss  Hayden. 

The   Pinehurst   Floral   Co.   is   sending 
in  large   quantities  of  lily   of  the   val- 
ley and  gladioli.

has  plans  under  way  for  a  retail  store. 
It  Is  remodeling  and  enlarging  its  store 
and,  with  the  completion  of  the  new 
greenhouses,  will  have  a  large  range. 

Mrs.  Louis  Asmussen,  of  Pope  Station, 
Kan.,  who  was  injured  about  six  weeks 
ago  in  an  accident,  has  improved,  but 
she  is  not  yet  entirely  well. 

Mrs.  Jack  Murray,  secretary  for  W. 
L.  Rock,  has  gone  to  Chicago  and  from 
there  will  go  to  Detroit,  Toronto,  Que- 
bec and  various  other  places. 

Mr.  and  Mrs.  C.  E.  Thomas  and  chil- 
dren are  on  a  visit  to  California.  In 
their  absence,  Mrs.  Edith  Roberts  is  in 
charge  of  the  Rosery. 

Mr.  and  Mrs.  William  Miller  and  son, 
Billy,  have  returned  from  a  month's 
visit  to  the  western  coast.  Mr.  Miller 
was  chairman  of  the  entertainment 
committee  of  the  Shriners'  special  train 
from  here  to  the  convention,  at  Port- 
land, Ore. 

Ernest  Weber,  of  the  Linwood  Floral 
Co.,  has  spent  the  last  three  weeks  in 
Wisconsin  and  South  Dakota. 

William  Foith  is  getting  his  benches 
ready  for  carnations  and  will  begin  to 
plant  indoors  in  about  ten  days.  He 
cut  10,000  blooms  from  the  old  stock 
July  8,  which  about  ended  his  crop  for 
the  season.  The  blooms  were  small,  but 
they  sold  readily  for  funeral  sprays. 
Mr.  and  Mrs.  Foith  are  going  to  Excel- 
sior Springs,  Mo.,  shortly  for  a  two 
weeks'  rest. 

H.  H.  Coffee,  bookkeeper  for  W.  J. 
Barnes,  is  enjoying  the  simple  life  in 
the  Ozarks. 

J.  G.  Eggleston  has  a  fine  stand  of 
cucumbers  in  the  space  formerly  occu- 
pied by  his  white  sweet  peas.  He  has 
thrown  out  all  of  his  white  peas  and 
will  hereafter  grow  only  colored  varie- 
ties.    His  cucumber  vines  are  from  ten

event  this  year  was  particularly  well 
attended  and  successful.  All  the  de-

store  men.  The  main  feature  of  the

FRENCH  BULBS. 


The  cables  have  been  occupied,  dur- 
ing the  last  week,  with  numerous  mes- 
sages from  and  to  Ollioules.  The  first 
shipment  of  French  bulbs  is  afloat  and 
the  indications  are  that,  while  the  crop 


Seed  Trade  News 


AXEEICAK   SEED   TEASE   ASSOCIAXION. 
President,     H.     G.     Hastings,     Atlanta,     Oa.; 
secretary-treasurer,  C.   E.   Kendel,   Cleveland,  O. 

Wartime  profits  in  the  seed  trade  now 
seem  likely  to  disappear  in  the  shrinking 
value  of  stock  on  hand. 

Holland  bulb  travelers  in  England 
have  found  business  considerably  more 
difi&cult  than  usual  this  season. 

If  other  lines  of  production  had  filled 
up  with  merchandise  as  rapidly  as  the 
seed  trade  has  since  the'  armistice  the 
average  seedsman  would  find  himself  in 
an  easier  position. 

Reports  from  California  state  that  it 
is  impossible  to  fill  orders  for  Purity 
f reesia  bulbs  in  full,  since  there  is  a  big 
shortage  of  sizable  bulbs  and  stock  in  gen- 
eral is  of  low  grade. 

The  impression  seems  to  prevail  that 
Uncle  Sam  will  get  his  1921  seed  supply, 
or  at  least-  a  considerable  part  of  it,  at 
bargain  counter  prices.  The  bids  are  to 
be  opened  at  Washington  July  23. 

It  was  stated  July  9  that  the  Everette 
R.  Peacock  Co.,  Chicago,  already  had  sold 
110,000  bushels  for  delivery  from  the 
1920  crop  of  onion  sets.  An  unusual  per- 
centage of  the  orders  are  for  fall  ship- 
ment. 

How  short  the  supply  of  freesia  bulbs 
will  prove  to  be  is  a  question.  Un- 
doubtedly the  crop  is  small,  but  jobbers 
are  receiving  offers  of  small  lots  of  *  *  sur- 
plus ' '  from  sources  with  which  no  orders 
had  been  placed.  Of  course,  the  prices 
are  high. 

Hail  destroyed  part  of  the  seed  crops 
in  the  vicinity  of  Rocky  Ford,  Colo.,  last 
week.  Early  reports  placed  the  damage 
high,  but  later  advices  were  that  some 
crops  had  escaped  serious  damage.  It  is 
too  late  to  replant  melon,  pumpkin  and 
squash,  though  cucumber  will  mature  if 
planted  at  once. 

The  official  roster  of  the  Jefferson 
Seed  Co.  is:  President,  D.  L.  Howard; 
vice-president,  Austin  Elvin ;  treasurer, 
G.  M.  Mackey;  secretary,  J.  M.  Bell; 
manager,  G.  W.  Mackey.  This  is  the  com- 
pany which  acquired  the  business  of  the 
Ratekin  Seed  House,  of  Shenandoah,  and 
removed  it  to  Jefferson.  The  concern's 
slogan  is :  "  Good  Seeds,  the  Key  to  the 
Harvest." 

Holland  bulb  men  state  that  the 
earliest  crops,  so  far  as  they  have  al- 
ready been  lifted,  are  rather  disappoint- 
ing. A  spell  of  hot,  dry  weather  just  at 
the  end  of  the  growing  season  caused  pre- 
mature dying  off  among  many  of  the 
tulips,  and  to  a  certain  extent  probably 
the  same  will  apply  to  other  bulbs.  It 
is  too  early  yet,  however,  to  form  an 
accurate  estimate  of  what  the  bulb  harvest 
is  to  be,  for  the  earliesrt  liftings  are  gen- 
erally the  weakest,  as  even  a  week 's  delay 
in  ripening  off  spells  considerable  im- 
provement in  what  are  naturally  left  for 
later  lifting.

is  undeniably  small,  there  are'  some  un- 
sold bulbs.  It  appears  that  the  Holland, 
houses  stand  ready  to  take  considerable 
quantities  of  bulbs,  but  that  they  are 
as  yet  unwillioj^  to  meet  the  rise  in 
prices.  At  the  same  time  numerous 
American  orders  placed  subject  to  con- 
firmation of  prices  appear  to  have  fallen 
down,  leaving  the  exporters  with  mod- 
erate quantities  of  bulbs  which  they 
have  been  trying  to  place  by  cable,  at 
prices  so  much  above  American  ideas  of 
current  values  that  the  deal  is  still  in 
suspension.  Unquestionably  there  are 
more  orders  than  bulbs  and  it  is  merely 
a  matter  of  agreeing  on  price  to  place 
any  unsold  lots. 

The  situation  is  further  complicated 
by  the  fact  that  some  buyers  here 
bought  their  francs  considerably  below 
the  present  rate  of  exchange.  Those 
who  placed  their  money  some  time  ago 
obtained  as  many  as  seventeen  francs 
for  a  dollar,  while  the  present  rate  is 
between  eleven  and  twelve  francs.  The 
man  who  got  his  French  money  cheaply 
has  a  choice  between  making  a  profit 
or  making  it  warm  for  his  competitors 
in  case  they  did  not  also  act  early. 


MOTT-LY  GLEAinNGS. 

Harry  Holmes,  of  the  Holmes-Lether- 
man  Seed  Co.,  Canton,  O.,  expressed 
gratification  at  the  fine  showing  made 
this  season.  It  is  highly  encouraging, 
stimulating  the  plans  for  more  space, 
which  were  held  over  until  the  results 
of  the  season's  business  were  known. 

Manager  H.  Conrad,  of  the  Dumont 
Seed  Store,  Canton,  O.,  reports  a  fifty 
per  cent  increase  since  it  was  forced  to 
move,  owing  to  a  fire  early  in  the 
season,  and  attributes  it  entirely  to  the 
larger  area  of  gardens  planted.      W.  M.

it  dropped  to  less  than  fifty  per  cent 
of  normal. 

Dealers  report  that  sales  for  future 
delivery  are  much  larger  than  last  year. 
Delayed  purchase  of  supplies  in  1919 
by  jobbers  and  retailers,  which,  together 
with  the  short  crop,  resulted  in  their 
failure  to  obtain  suflScient  stocks  to 
supply  their  1920  spring  trade,  is  given 
as  a  reason  for  the  early  contracting 
this  season. 

The  area  in  which  onion  sets  are 
grown  in  the  Chicago  district  is  being 
extended  beyond  its  original  boundaries. 
This  is  largely  because  growers  have 
found  that  crop  rotation  is  necessary  in 


producing  the  best  yield  of  sets  and  the 
land  is  sown  to  grain  at  least  once  in 
three  or  four  years. 

The  best  information  obtainable  indi- 
cates that  the  acreage  on  the  south  side 
of  Chicago  has  been  increased  somewhat 
over  last  year  but  that  it  has  been  re- 
duced proportionately  on  the  north  side. 
Little  difference  is  noted  between  fields 
sown  around  April  15  and  those  sown 
after  May  1.  The  stands  are  even  and 
the  j)lants  thick  enough  in  the  rows  to 
insure  sets  of  the  desired  size.  The 
plants  will  start  bulbing  during  the  next 
week  or  ten  days,  and  rain  and  cool 
weather    are    essential    if    the    present 


bright   prospects   for    a   crop   continue. 

The  contract  acreage  of  onion  sets  in 
this  district  is  reported  to  be  reduced 
somewhat  from  that  of  last  year.  With 
the  exception  of  a  few  fields,  the  grow- 
ing condition  is  good,  but  the  crop  is 
from  ten  days  to  two  weeks  late.  The 
stand  is  even  and  the  color  excellent, 
but  in  some  of  the  poorer  fields  there  is 
some  evidence  of  smut. 

The  acreage  devoted  to  onion  sets  in 
Oregon  is  reported  to  be  much  larger 
than  that  of  1919.  On  about  eighty-five 
per  cent  of  the  acreage  the  growing  con- 
dition of  the  crop  is  fair  and  on  the  re- 
mainder it  is  reported  quite  good.

PURE  SEED  PROBLEMS. 


Wisconsin's  Seed  Control  Lav. 

Before  the  Wisconsin  seed  control  law 
was  passed;  in  1909,  the  agricultural 
college  and  the  experiment  station  were 
trying  by  educational  methods  to  per- 
suade farmers  and  dealers  to  acquire 
more  accurate  knowledge  concerning  the 
quality  of  the  seeds  sold  and  used  for 
the  production  of  field  crops.  These 
appeals  met  with  only  a  small  response. 
The  year  before  the  law  went  into  effect, 
?rom  July  1,  1908,  to  June  30,  1909,  851 
samples  of  seed  were  tested.  The  law 
became  effective  July  1,  1909,  and  from 
then  to  June  30,  1910,  1,795  samples 
were  received  at  the  laboratory.  No 
traveling  inspectors  were  employed  un- 
til 1913.  The  number  of  samples  im- 
mediately began  to  increase  and  in 
1915-16,  4,231  samples  were  analyzed  in 
the  laboratory. 

Opportunities  for  Tests. 

Prom  the  first  it  was  the  policy  of 
the  seed  control  division  to  cooperate  as 
closely  as  possible  with  the  seedsmen  and 
dealers  and  the  inspectors  were  instruct- 
ed to  give  all  aid  and  information  pos- 
sible. Dealers  were  told  that  where  the 
seed  had  been  mixed  to  make  a  uniform 
lot,  one  sample  carefully  taken  from  the 
lot  was  enough.  They  were  also  told 
they  were  at  liberty  to  make  their  own 
tests  if  they  were  sufficiently  familiar 
with  methods  of  testing  to  make  their 
analyses  reliable  or  if  they  employed  a 
competent  analyst.  They  were  also  told 
that  they  might  have  their  tests  made 
by  county  agents,  principals  of  county 
agricultural  schools,  the  federal  seed 
laboratories,  at  Washington,  D.  C,  and 
La  Fayette,  Ind.,  or  by  any  other  person 
or  organization  capable  of  making 
reliable  tests.  This,  of  course,  resulted 
in  lessening  the  number  of  samples  sent 
to  our  own  laboratory  and  in  1918-19 
only  2,978  samples  were  received.  This 
small  number  was  not  entirely  due  to 
tests  made  elsewhere,  but,  to  some  ex- 
tent, to  a  lessened  seed  supply  and  hence 
a  smaller  number  of  lots  sampled. 

Results  of  Inspection. 

The  inspection  has  resulted  in  a 
gradual  improvement  in  the  quality  of 
the  seeds  offered  on  the  Wisconsin 
market.  The  first  year,  1909-10,  the 
analysis  showed  an  average  purity  of 
92.1  per  cent  and  an  average  germina- 
tion of  82.5  per  cent  for  all  seeds.  Five 
years  later  the  figures  were,  purity  93 
per  cent  and  germination  86.1  per  cent. 
At  the  end  of  the  ten  years,  or  in  1918- 
•19,  the  averages  were,  purity  96.6  per 
cent  and  germination  89  per  cent. 

Wisconsin  is  one  of  the  states  in 
which  the  law  makes  no  exception  in 
favor  of  the  farmers.  The  majority  of 
the  farmers  who  grow  seed  for  sale  be- 
long to  the  Agricultural  Experiment 
Association.  A  letter  was  sent  to  each 
of  the  1,500  members  of  this  association 
giving  the  law's  requirements  and  in 
this  and  other  ways  the  information 
has  been  spread  until  it  is  safe  to  say 
that  the  sale  of  unlabeled  seeds  by 
farmers  is  the  exception  rather  than  the 
rule. 

The  division's  experience  in  seed 
control  has  brought  it  into  direct  con-

The  Florists^  Review 


Jdlt  15.  1920 


From  this  acre  he  obtains  enough  seed 
to  plant  a  field.  From  the  field  seed  is 
obtained  in  sufficient  quantity  to  sell  to 
neighbors  and  others,  or  to  seedsmen. 

As  these  improved  varieties  are 
among  the  best  available  for  general 
use,  seedsmen  might  well  be  among  the 
active  agencies  assisting  in  their  distri- 
bution. The  ideal  arrangement  would 
be  one  where  the  entire  output  of  the 
growers  would  be  absorbed  and  dis- 
tributed in  the  general  market  by  the 
seedsmen.  The  consummation  of  such 
a  plan  rests  largely  with  the  seedsmen. 
Unless  sufficient  cooperation  is  estab- 
lished, crop  breeders'  associations  are 
almost  certain  to  become  increasingly 
strong  competitors  of  the  seedsmen. 

Improper  Iiabeling. 

Seed  inspectors  sometimes  wonder 
whether  seedsmen  and  seed  dealers  who 
sell  impure  or  improperly  labeled  seeds 
have  fully  considered  the  final  result  of 
such  practices.  The  farmer  is  not 
damaged  particularly  by  having  pur- 
chased for  more  than  they  were  worth 
crop  seeds  containing  a  small  quantity 
of  weed  seeds.  His  loss  lies  in  the  re- 
duced yields  of  crops  and,  if  the  foreign 
seeds  happen  to  be  those  of  weeds  which 
are  hard  to  destroy,  a  much  greater  loss 
results  because  of  the  otherwise  un- 
necessary labor  required  to  eradicate 
the  weeds.  Decreased  production  means 
decreased  income,  which,  in  turn,  means 
lower  purchasing  power.  Should  such 
conditions  become  general,  the  pros- 
perity of  everyone  concerned  would  be 
menaced,  even  that  of  the  seedsmen 
themselves. 

Seed  Mixtures. 

Many  samples  of  seed  mixtures, 
especially  hay  and  meadow  mixtures, 
are  offered  annually  to  the  farmers  of 
Wisconsin.  Alsike  and  timothy,  red 
clover  and  timothy,  and  alsike,  red 
clover  and  timothy  are  the  popular 
mixtures.  Some  dealers  fail  to  observe 
the  rule  that  the  seed  constituting  the 
major  portion  of  the  mixture  shall  be 
named  first,  though  knowing  that  the 
purchaser  is  taking  its  observance  for 
granted.  Some  dealers  also  label  mix- 
tures with  what  appears  to  be  the 
actual  percentages,  invariably  making 
the  clover  percentage  too  high.  If  the 
purchaser  is  planning  to  raise  the  clover 
to  feed  his  dairy  cattle  for  high  milk 
production,  the  loss  is  serious.  Usually 
farmers  who  purchase  these  mixtures  do 
so  with  the  idea  of  using  the  fields  on 
which  they  are  sown  for  hay,  depending 
upon  the  clover  for  the  first  year  and 
timothy  and  alsike  or  mammoth  for  the 
second  year.  The  seed  is  sown  with  a 
nurse  crop  of  grain,  which  is  removed 
about  the  middle  of  the  summer. 

Severe  loss  to  the  farmer  results  when 
mixtures  of  "clover  and  timothy"  con- 
tain from  sixteen  to  twenty  per  cent, 
by  weight,  of  the  seeds  of  crimson  or 
annual  yellow  blossom  sweet  clover,  as 
was  the  case  with  mixtures  offered  by 
certain  seed  companies  this  season.  Both 
these  plants  are  distinctly  inferior  un- 
der Wisconsin  conditions  and  will  not 
produce  decent  pasture  even  in  the  first 
year.  They  winter-kill,  leaving  the 
farmer  from  sixteen  to  twenty  per  cent 
short  of  a  hay  crop. 

Hard  Seeds. 

This  year's  clover  seed  crop  in  Wis- 
consin has  shown  an  exceptionally  high 
percentage  of  hard  seeds,  ranging  from 
eight  to  forty-two  per  cent,  with  an 
average  of  fifteen  per  cefat.     The  seeds

off  the  young  plant  whenever  the  seed

does  grow.  As  the  highest  percentages 
of  hard  seeds  are  usually  found  in  seeds 
of  the  finest  appearance,  which,  of 
course,  are  the  highest-priced,  to  in- 
crease the  rate  of  seeding  from  fifteen 
to  thirty  per  cent,  in  order  to  make  up 
for  the  loss  from  ungerminated  seeds, 
will  amount  to  no  small  item  at  present 
prices. 

Scarification  of  the  seed  is  the  partial 
answer  to  the  question,  but  to  scarify 
the  seed  of  an  entire  crop  wherever 
seed  is  handled  is  a  big  undertaking. 
Some  investigators  claim  that  scarifica- 
tion produces  rapid  deterioration  in  the

it    might    prove    seriously    detrimental. 

Vegetable  Seed  Leglslatiozi. 

The  Wisconsin  statutes  compel  the 
labeling  of  vegetable  seed  packets  with 
the  germination  test  if  the  germination 
of  the  seeds  in  the  packet  falls  more 
than  five  per  cent  below  the  standard 
of  germination  for  each  respective  kind, 
as  fixed  by  the  state  department  of 
agriculture.    No  purity  test  is  required. 

The  department's  standards  have 
been  fixed  in  accordance  with  what  its 
investigations  each  year  have  shown  to 
be  fair,  taking  all  factors  into  considera- 
tion. Some  of  the  members  of  the  A. 
S.  T.  A;  have  been  instrumental  in  help- 
ing to  fix  those  standards  by  the  infor- 
mation and  seed  samples  which  they 
have  supplied.  The  standards  fixed  each 
year  many  of  them  have  declared  to  be 
preeminently  fair.  Some  of  them  have 
stated  that  they  would  not  sell  seeds 
with  tests  as  low  as  those  fixed  in  the 
division's  standard^.

The  Rorists^  Review 


July  15.  1920 


BoOER  Eeynolds  is  starting  in  the 
nursery  business  at  Kedwood  City,  Cal. 

Harrt  E.  Phelps,  Taeoma,  Wash.,  is 
starting  his  son  in  the  nursery  business. 
The  name  of  the  firm  will  be  the  Taeoma 
Nursery. 

Perhaps  no  trade  suffers  more  severely 
than  the  nursery  business  because  of  the 
transportation  tie-up  last  spring,  and  yet 
nurserymen  as  a  class  are  not  enthusiastic 
over  the  prospect  of  an  early  increase  of 
twenty-five  to  fifty  per  cent  in  freight 
rates. 

William  H.  Wyman,  who  declared  at 
the  Chicago  convention  of  the  A.  A.  N. 
that  he  didn't  want  to  enlarge  his  busi- 
ness, but  wished  to  take  things  easy  hence- 
forth, has  solved  the  problem  by  selling 
the  Framingham  Nurseries,  at  North 
Abington,  Mass.,  to  his  son,  Richard  M. 
Wyman,  who  doesn't  intend  to  take 
things  easy. 


PACIFIC  COAST   CONVENTION. 


At  Spokane. 

At  the  eighteenth  annual  convention 
of  the  Pacific  Coast  Association  of 
Nurserymen,  held  at  tlie  Davenport 
hotel,  Spokane,  Wasli.,  from  June  29 
to  July  1,  the  following  officers  were 
elected:  President,  F.  H.  Burglehaus, 
of  the  Rosecroft  Fruit  Farm,  Sumner, 
Wash.;  vice-presidents,  J.  B.  Wagner, 
Pasadena,  Cal.;  B.  H.  Bowers,  of  the 
Provo  Nurseries,  Prove,  Utah;  Richard 
Layritz,  Victoria,  B.  C;  C.  B.  Miller, 
of  the  Milton  Nursery  Co.,  Milton,  Ore.; 
C.  T.  Hawkes,  of  the  Caldwell  Nursery 
Co.,  Caldwell,  Ida.,  and  A.  A.  Kelly, 
Spokane,  Wash.;  secretary-treasurer.  C. 
A.  Tonneson,  Taeoma,  Wash.  Mr.  Ton- 
neson  was  reelected  to  his  oflSce  for 
the  eighteenth  successive  time.  The 
executive  committee  was  chosen  as  fol- 
lows: C.  Malmo,  J.  J.  Bonnell  and  I.  F. 
Madlem,  all  of  Seattle,  Wash. 

President  Day's  Address. 

Mayor  Fleming,  of  Spokane,  gave  the 
opening  address  and  was  followed  by 
N.  W.  Durham,  who  spoke  for  the  cham- 
ber of  commerce;  M.  McDonald,  of 
Orenco,  Ore.,  responded  for  the  associa- 
tion. Mrs.  Ruth  Day,  of  Overman's 
Nursery,  Spokane,  in  the  president's 
address,  stressed  the  importance  of 
stabilizing  prices,  raising  the  quality  of 
the  stock,  increasing  publicity,  practic- 
ing conservation  in  growing  and  devel- 
oping greater  cooperation  among  the 
growers.      She    also    touched    upon    the 


matter  of  winter  injury,  the  placing 
of  the  responsibility  and  the  question 
of  replacement.  In  connection  with 
prices,  Mrs.  Day  said:  "Greater  atten- 
tion must  be  paid  to  a  cost  finding  sys- 
tem, and  efficiency  methods  must  be 
applied,  so  that  the  producing  cost  can 
be  made  the  basis  for  the  selling  price." 
She  outlined  the  advantages  of  a  clear- 
ing house,  which  should  keep  nursery 
stock  well  balanced  by  transferring 
surplus  stock  to  members  of  the  asso- 
ciation who  might  be  in  need  of  it, 
and  the  following  committee  was  ap- 
pointed to  consider  the  practicability  of 
establishing  one  for  the  association:  C. 
T.  Hawkes,  chairman;  J.  R.  Gardner, 
Richland,  Wash.,  and  F,  H.  Burglehaus. 
Reports  were  submitted  by  Vice- 
presidents  F.  W.  May,  Yakima,  Wash.; 
A.  Brownell,  Portland,  Ore.;  M.  R.  Jack- 
son, Fresno,  Cal.;  C.  T.  Hawkes,  Cald- 
well, Ida.,  and  C.  A.  Atwood,  Grand 
Forks,  B.  C. 

To  Have  Field  Secretary. 

A  plan  providing  for  a  board  of  trus- 
tees and  a  field  secretary  was  adopted.

was  appointed  to  consult  with  Mr. 
Turner:  C.  A.  Tonneson,  chairman;  H. 
A.  Lewis,  Portland,  and  M.  McDonald. 
Both  the  nature  of  the  address  and  the

tee resembled  an  address  delivered  and 
a  committee  created  at  the  last  conven-

increasing  importance  which  the  trade 
as  a  whole  is  attaching  to  sound  busi-

counting.

CRAIG  QUALITY 

Plants  for  Growing  On 

On  account  of  selling  our  Philadelphia  property  we  are  compelled  to  make 
room  at  our  Norwood   plant,  and  offer  some  of   our  specialties  at  less  than 

regular  prices.     They  are    Sure   Money   Makers   and   indispensable   for  fall  and  Christmas  trade.- 
The  wide-awake  growers  will  surely  take  immediate  advantage  of  this  offer:

Dracaena  Lord  Wolseley— very  strong,  2-inch.

Much  discussion  followed  an  address 
by  Professor  G.  J.  Miller,  of  the  uni- 
versity extension  station,  at  Moscow, 
Ida.,  describing  the  growing  of  trees  by 
his  department  and  their  distribution 
at  cost  within  the  state  of  Idaho.  0.  J. 
Atwood,  of  Toppenish,  Wash.,  in  the  dis-' 
cussion  said:  "The  function  of  this  de- 
partment is  to  educate  and  train  the 
people.  But  it  plants  trees  on  free 
ground  and  distributes  them  cheaper 
than  we  nurserymen  can  grow  them. 
Let  the  state  plant  these  trees  on  school 
grounds  and  other  public  grounds  for 
beauty.  I  believe  that  the  state  should 
conduct  extension  lectures  to  educate 
the  peof)le  to  plant  trees,  but  I  believe 
that  its  distribution  of  trees  at  cost  is 
establishing  the  wrong  idea  in  the  minds 
of  the  people  by  putting  us  in  the  posi- 
tion of  robbers."  A  few  thought  that 
the  educational  value  of  the  extension 
work  offset  the  price  competition  raised 
with  nurserymen,  but  finally  the  follow- 
ing committee  was  appointed  to  draft 
a  resolution  stating  the  nurserymen's 
position  on  this  matter:  C.  J.  Atwood, 
C.  D.  Hobbs,  Milton,  Ore.,  and  J.  A. 
McGee,  of  Orenco,  Ore. 

Next  Meeting  in  Seattle. 

The  convention  clo.spd  Thursday  eve- 
ning, July  1,  with  a  storeopticon  lecture 
in  the  assembly  room  of  the  chamber  of 
commerce  by  Howard  P].  Weed,  a  land- 
scape architect  of  Portland.  Various 
elements  of  city  planning  and  city  beau- 
tification  were  mentioned  and  illustrat- 
ed. He  urged  increased  growing  of 
perennials  and  recommended  that  the 
street  shade  trees  should  be  largely  Nor- 
way maples  and  other  slow-growing, 
long-lived  trees. 

Park  Commissioner  John  J.  Duncan, 
of  Spokane,  was  voted  an  honorary  life 
membership  in  the  association.  An  in- 
teresting exhibit  was  a  rose  collection 
of  twenty-four  varieties  furnished  by 
I.  F.  Madlem,  of  the  Orcas  Island  Nurs-

A  new  committee  was  ordered  to  be 
appointed  on  this  subject  at  the  conven- 
tion of  the  American  Association  of 
Nurserymen  three  weeks  ago.  Some  of 
its  thunder  was  stolen  beforehand,  how- 
ever, by  the  standing  committee  on 
relations  with  landscape  architects,  of 
which  Thomas  B.  Meehan  is  the  able 
chairman,  supported  by  Henry  Kohankre, 
Theodore  J.  Smith  and  Richard  M. 
Wymaa  as  members. 
Agreement  with  Landscape  Architects. 

In  the  committee's  report  was  pre- 
sented the  memorandum  of  agreement 
prepared  by  the  joint  committee  of  the 
American  Association  of  Nurserymen 
and  the  American  Society  of  Landscape 
Architects,  which  was  adopted  by  the 
association  subsequently.    ,        ^  ^  . 

The  first  section  included  a  statement 
of  the  "obligations  which  are  normally 
impUed  by  the  placing  and  acceptance 
of  an  order  for  nursery  stock,  in  the 
absence  of  specific  stipulations  to  some 
other  effect."     These  read  as  follows:

receipt  from  the  transportation  agency,  stating 
whether  waybill  was  signed  "under  protest" 
and  whether  goods  have  been  unpacked  and  in- 
spected; and  that  failure  to  send  such  notice 
within  two  days  of  the  receipt  of  the  stock  shall 
be  prima  facie  evidence  of  Its  acceptance. 

4.  That  all  reasonable  care,  skill  and  dispatch 
shall  be  used  in  the  unpacking  and  Inspection 
of   the  stock. 

C.  That  if  the  stock  shall  appear,  at  the 
time  of  inspection  on  delivery,  to  be  defective 
from  any  cause  otlier  than  the  fault  of  the 
transportation  agency,  a  complaint  to  that  ef- 
fect shall  be  sent  to  the  shipper,  either  with  the 
notice  of  receipt  of  goods  specified  under  No. 
3  above,  or  within  one  week  thereafter.  Said 
complaint  should  specify  explicitly  the  nature 
of  the  defect  or  defects. 

6.  That  in  case  a  complaint  of  defective 
stock  is  thus  made  to  the  nurseryman,  the  stock 
In  question  shall  be  heeled  In  or  otherwise 
properly  protected  from  deterioration,  and  shall 
not  be  destroyed  or  otherwise  disposed  of  until 
the  nurseryman  shall  have  had  reasonable  time 
to  state  whether  he  wishes  to  have  the  stock 
Jointly  Inspected  or  what  action  he  proposes  to 
take  concerning  the  complaint. 

7.  That  If  the  stock  shall  appear  at  the  time 
of  inspection  upon  delivery  to  be  defective,  partly 
or  wholly  because  of  delay  or  mishandling  while 
in  transit,  the  consignee  or  the  person  placing 
the  order  shall  be  responsible  for  making  the 
proper  claim  upon  the  transportation  agency, 
the  shipper  being  under  obligation  to  assist  by 
furnishing  any  information  needful  In  establish- 
ing the  claim  against  the  transportation  agency. 

C.  Payments:  In  the  absence  of  special 
agreements  to  some  otlier  effect,  payments  for 
nurserv  stock  are  expected  to  be  made  within 
thirty  "days  after  delivery  both  of  consignment 
and   bill   for   same. 

In  addition  was  submitted  a  memoran- 
dum in  regard  to  payment  of  bills  for 
nursery  stock  ordered  by  landscape 
architects  on  account  of  clients,  which 
read: 

The  practice  of  many  landscape  architects 
of  withholding  nurserymen's  bills  from  recom- 
mendation for  payment  until  they  have  verified 
the  bills  from  several  different  nurserymen 
for  all  plants  shipped  ou  their  orders  to  a  given 
client  throughout  a  whole  planting  season,  when 
taken  in  connection  with  the  fact  that  the 
clients  often  delay  payment  after  receiving  the 
bills  with  the  landscape  architect's  recommenda- 
tion for  payment,  sometimes  works  serious 
financial  hardship  on  the  nurserymen  and  ought 
to  be  kept  within  close  limits.  Where  the  bills 
from  individual  nurserymen  are  small  it  may 
be  reasonable  to  hold  some  of  them  as  much 
as  thirty  days  for  the  sake  of  sending  In  a 
group  of  bills  at  one  time  to  a  client  for  the 
letter's  convenience,  but  in  no  case  Is  It  good 
practice  to  hold  any  bill  In  this  manner  for 
more  than  a  month  after  the  receipt  of  goods. 

Landscape  architects  ordering  plants  from 
nurserymen  for  clients  are  recommended  by  the 
American  Society  of  Landscape  Architects  to 
follow  the  practice  of  Issuing,  within  thirty 
days  after  the  receipt  of  both  bill  and  goods 
from  the  nurseryman,  a  certificate  of  payment 
due,  as  In  the  case  of  certificates  of  payment 
due  contractors,  sending  copies  both  to  the 
clleat  and  the  nurseryman.  In  any  case,  the 
landscape  architect  should  notify  the  nursery- 
man promptly  by  some  means,  as  soon  as  he  has 
verified  the  bill  and  recommended  the  client 
to  make  payment.  In  the  opinion  of  the  Ameri- 
can Society  of  Landscape  Architects  there  is 
no   reason    why   the    nurseryman,    after   the    re-

directly  to  the  client  with  regard  to  payment 
of  the  account.  Furthermore,  if  the  landscape 
architect  should  delay  sending  such  notice  to 
the  nurseryman  for  more  than  sixty  days  after 
the  receipt  of  both  bill  and  stock  from  the 
nurseryman  (unless  in  the  Interval  he  shall  have

WmiNO  CAPE  FLOWEES. 

Will  you  please  tell  me  the  name  of 
the  fern  used  by  florists  in  filling  fern 
dishes,  of  which  I  am  sending  a  leaf? 
What  is  the  name  of  the  small  trailing 


succulent  of  which  I  am  sending  a  leaf  t 
How  should  I  use  cape  flowers  for  de- 
sign work?  J.  P.  E. — Colo. 


The  name  of  the  fern  is  Aspidium 
Tsus-sinense.  The  small  succulent  is  one 
of  the  trailing  sedums. 

The  best  way  to  wire  these  flowers  is 
to  cut  the  wires  the  required  length, 
then  take  one  end  of  the  wire  and  place 
it  alongside  the  disk,  bending  the  wire 


over  so  that  it  catches  the  disk  in  a 
small  loop,  winding  the  short  end  of  the 
wire  around  the  disk  and  the  long  end 
of  the  wire  at  the  same  time,  so  that 
the  flower  is  held  firmly.  M.  P.

Greenhouse  Heating 

Subscribers  are  invited  to  write  the 
Editor  of  this  Department  with  regard  to 
any  details  of  greenhouse  heating  that 
are  not  understood.  When  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. 


SUBVEY  SHOWS  COAL  SHOETAOE. 

How  the  country  has  run  down  in  its 
stock  of  soft  coal  is  strikingly  shown 
in  a  report  just  issued  by  the  federal 
geological  survey.  These  official  figures, 
embracing  every  state  in  the  Union, 
shovr  that  huge  industrial  and  utility 
plants  of  the  nation  have  been  going 
along  during  the  last  few  months  with 
an  average  of  from  one  to  two  weeks' 
supply  of  coal. 

While  in  ordinary  times  there  is  a 
supply  of  some  35,000,000  tons  of  coal  in 
the  country's  bins — that  is,  coal  in  the 
hands  of  great  and  small  consumers — 
in  the  early  spring  months,  the  country 's 
surplus  throughout  last  spring  was  al- 
most entirely  exhausted. 

With  an  increasing  demand  for  coal 
throughout  the  country  and  lessened 
production  because  of  car  shortage,  the 
average  of  stocks  in  the  hands  of  man- 
ufacturing plants,  public  utilities  and 
other  large  consumers  throughout  the 
country  gradually  diminished  during 
June.  Unofficial  reports  show  that 
many  of  the  manufacturing  plants  by 
that  time  had  run  down  to  a  supply  that 
would  last  only  a  little  over  a  week. 

Inability  of  coal  operators  to  get  any- 
where near  an  adequate  supply  of  cars 
to  take  coal  from  the  mines,  in  an  effort 
to  relieve  the  shortage,  is  brought  out 
by  the  geological  survey.  Reports  em- 
braced in  the  survey's  statement  from 
some  3,000  mines,  representing  approxi- 
mately sixty  per  cent  of  the  aggregate 
soft  coal  capacity  of  the  country,  show 
that  there  was  an  average  of  forty- 
three  and  three-tenths  per  cent  of  po- 
tential production  lost  through  shortage 
of  coal  cars  for  the  entire  country.  In 
some  of  the  fields,  notably  West  Vir- 
ginia, Kentucky  and  Illinois,  the  loss 
of  production  due  to  shortage  of  cars 
ran  from  fifty  per  cent  and  up  to  sixty- 
five  per  cent  of  normal. 

In  commenting  upon  the  car  supply 
the  geological  survey  says:  "The 
shortage  of  cars  remains  acute  over 
most  of  the  territory  east  of  the  Mis- 
sissippi river.  Out  of  thirty-one  dis- 
tricts reporting,  only  three — Michigan, 
Alabama  and  the  combination  rail  and 
river  mines  of  the  Pittsburgh  district — 
experienced  a  transportation  loss  small- 
er than  twenty  per  cent  of  full  time.  In 
eleven  fields  the  loss  exceeded  fifty  per 
cent  and  in  three — northeastern  Ken- 
tucky, Harlan  county  and  central  Penn- 
sylvania—  it  was  greater  than  sixty  per 
cent."

Help  Save  the  "White 
Coal  of  Industry" 

The  boiling  hot  water  resulting  from  condensation  m 
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.

side,  with  a  connecting  house  of  twenty 
feet  between,  and  the  gutters  six  feet. 
There  will  be  three  feet  of  glass  and 
three  feet  of  concrete  in  the  walls.  The 
ridge  will  be  about  twelve  feet. 

The  service  building  will  be  built  on 
a  side  hill,  30x46  feet,  with  the  boiler 
room  and  garage  on  the  lower  floor  and 
the  workroom  and  office  on  the  second. 
I  should  like  to  use  steam  heat,  low 
pressure  preferred,  and  want  to  make 
use  of  as  much  of  the  material  I  now 
have  as  possible.  I  have  about  10,000 
feet  of  2-inch  pipe,  150  feet  of  3-inch 
pipe,  1.50  feet  of  4-inch  pipe  and  150 
feet  of  5-inch  pipe. 

Should  I  use  a  large  boiler  or  two 
small  ones?  I  intend  to  erect  another 
house,  35x175  feet,  next  year.  Would  it 
be  advisable  to  use  the  2-inch  pipe  en- 
tirely in  the  houses?  What  size  of  mains 
will  be  necessary?  R.  R. — O. 


While  it  would  be  preferable  to  use 
1%-inch  pipe  for  the  returns,  it  will  be 
possible  to  get  fairly  satisfactory  re- 
sults if  the  2-inch  pipes  now  on  hand  are 
used  for  the  return  coils.  The  2-inch 
pipes  will  be  ample  for  supplying  re- 
turns for  all  of  the  houses,  including 
the  new  house  to  be  built  next  year. 

For  the  20-foot  houses,  one  overhead 
flow  pipe  under  the  ridge  of  each  house 
will  answer.  The  sketch  shows  three 
houses  on  each  side  of  the  connecting 
house,  those  on  the  south  side  to  be 
heated  to  60  degrees,  while  only  52 
degrees  is  required  in  the  three  houses  on 
the  north  side  of  the  connecting  house. 
The  outer  houses  in  each  of  the  blocks 
are  to  have  three  feet  of  glass  and  three 
feet  of  concrete  in  one  side  and  one  end 
wall,  while  the  middle  houses  in  each 
block  have  no  exposed  side  walls. 

To  heat  the  outside  houses  to  60 
degrees  use,  in  addition  to  the  2-inch 
main,  six  2-inch  returns,  while  for  the 
middle  house  of  this  block  only  five 
returns  will  be  needed.  In  the  block 
for  which  52  degrees  is  desired,  five 
returns  will  be  needed  in  the  outside 
houses  and  four  returns  for  the  middle 
house. 

When  the  new  house  is  built,  use  three 
2-inch  flow  pipes  and  nine  2-inch  returns 
on  each  side  of  the  connecting  house, 
or  two  flows  and  ten  returns  may  be 
used  in  case  bottom  heat  is  not  desired 
under  the  middle  benches. 

To  supply  steam  for  the  old  houses 
run  a  4-inch  main  for  the  block  to  be 
heated  to  52  degrees  and  a  5-inch  main 
for  the  60-degree  houses.  These  mains 
may  be  carried  over  the  doors  leading 
into  the   houses.

It  is  noted  that  a  temperature  of 
60  degrees  is  desired  in  the  east  end  of 
the  connecting  house  and  50  degrees  at 
the  west  end.  A  5-inch  main  will  be 
needed  to  supply  the  coils  in  the  house 
to  be  erected  next  year  and,  when  this 
is  installed  and  2-inch  return  pipes  for 
each  block  of  houses  have  been  pro- 
vided, they  will  furnish  practically  all 
of  the  heat  required  for  the  connecWng 
house.     Until  the  large  house  has  Jseen 


built  it  will  be  advisable  to  run  one 
2-inch  return  on  each  side  of  the  con- 
necting house,  feeding  them  from  the 
mains  which  supply  the  other  houses. 
For  the  houses  to  be  built  this  year 
a  40-horsepower  boiler  will  be  ample 
and  a  boiler  of  60-horsepower  will  heat 
the  range  when  completed.  While  it 
may  be  well  to  have  a  boiler  in  reserve, 
do  not  use  anything  less  than  a  60-hor8e* 
power  boiler  in  the  range.

of  July  4  have  caused  a  slump  in  the 
flower  business  and  the  florists  have 
begun  to  take  vacations. 

Carnations  are  overabundant,  but 
poor  in  quality.  Eoses  also  are  plenti- 
ful. Outdoor  sweet  peas  are  arriving 
on  the  market  in  large  quantities  and 
they  are  of  good  quality.  Candidum 
lilies  are  used  for  all  purposes  at  pres- 
ent. Giant  larkspur  is  finding  a  ready 
sale.  A  few  late  peonies  are  still  being 
marketed.  America  gladioli  are  becom- 
ing more  plentiful,  but  the  price  is  still 
high.  Harrisii  lilies  are  still  of  excel- 
lent quality,  but  there  are  no  callas. 

Various  Notes. 

The  proprietor  of  the  Rochester  Flo- 
ral Co.  gave  all  his  employees  a  holiday 
July  4. 

Edwin  P.  Wilson  and  family  spent 
July  4  at  Holley,  N.  Y.  Edwin,  Jr.,  is 
spending  the  summer  in  the  Adiron- 
dacks. 

J.  M.  Keller  has  returned  from  the 
Shriners'  convention,  held  at  Portland. 
Ore.  ' 

Miss  Jane  Morris  spent  July  4  and  5 
at  Watkins  Glen  and  Dundee,  N.  Y., 
having  motored  there. 

J.  B.  Keller  Sons  had  a  display  at  a 
style  show  at  the  Hotel  Powers  consist- 
ing of  fountain  baskets,  palms,  etc.  H. 
E.  Wilson  and  George  T.  Boucher  had 
similar  displays. 

July  7  George  T.  Boucher  met  with 
the  various  picnic  committees  of  the 
Rochester  Florists'  Association  to  make 
final  arrangoiin'nts  for  the  outing  Au- 
gust 5  at  Fairview  Beach.  Tickets  are 
for  sale  at  all  the  florists'  stores. 

Miss  Lillian  Wheeler  is  again  at  work 
after  being  confined  to  her  home  for  two 
weeks  with  summer  influenza. 

The  Sunday  closing  movement  has  not 
made  much  of  an  impression  here,  but 
it  is  thouj[ht  that  it  will  be  taken  up  at 
a  meeting  of  the  Rochester  Florists' 
Association  in  the  near  future. 

Word  has  been  received  from  Horace 
J.  Head  that  he  is  having  a  fine  time 
in  England.  He  will  sail  for  home 
July  21.  E.  C.  A.

TOEONTO,  ONT. 


The  Market. 

Business  has  fallen  off  during  the  last 
week,  due  to  the  warm  weather  and  the 
moving  of  the  people  to  their  summer 
homes  at  the  lakes.  There  is  also  a 
shortage  of  flowers,  but  there  is  suffi- 
cient stock  to  take  care  of  the  work. 
This  is  chiefly  funeral  work  and  also 
an  occasional  wedding. 

C.  H.  A.  Convention. 

The  program  for  the  convention  of 
the  Canadian  Horticultural  Association, 
to  be  held  at  Hamilton,  Ont.,  August  10 
to  13,  is  about  completed.  The  morning 
and  afternoon  sessions  of  the  first  day 
will  be  spent  discussing  the  advisability 
of  a  new  constitution  and  the  adoption 
of  a  new  name.  The  proposed  name  is 
the  Society  of  Canadian  Florists.  The 
afternoon  of  the  second  day  will  be 
spent  on  a  trip  to  Grimsby,  where  the 
Ofield  range  is  located.  The  election 
of  officers  will  be  held  the  afternoon  of 
the  third  day  and  the  annual  banquet 
will  be  held  in  the  evening. 

The  Canadian  Retail  Florists'  Asso- 
ciation, which  was  formed  last  year, 
will  meet  Thursday  morning,  August  12, 
with  President  George  M.  Geraghty  in 
the  chair.  Secretary  Silas  McFadden 
has  sent  out  several  hundred  announce- 
ments and  a  large  attendance  of  retail- 
ers is  expected. 

Various  Notes. 

Alexander  Simj)son  and  family  are 
spending  a  holiday  at  Lake  Simcoe. 

George  A.  Hall,  of  the  Lord  &  Burn- 
ham  Co.,  Toronto,  is  moving  to  Montreal 
in  order  to  look  after  some  large  under- 
takings in  Quebec  province.  The  execu- 
tive committee  of  the  Gardeners'  and

Alexander  Simpson  to  assume  the  duties 
of  treasurer,  as  well  as  secretary,  dur-

HARTFORD,  CONN. 


The  Market. 


Weather  conditions  around  Hartford 
have  improved.  Last  week  there  vpas 
sunshine  and  a  little  more  heat.  The 
market  is  in  good  shape,  demand  just 
equaling  the  supply.  Larkspur,  gladioli, 
roses,  carnations  and  coreopsis  are  the 
principal  offerings.  Swainsona  is  be- 
ing used  in  place  of  valley  for  bouquet 
work.  There  are  some  Easter  lilies  to 
be  had.  The  demand  for  plants  for 
window  boxes  is  somewhat  unusual  for 
this  season  of  the  year. 

Various  Notes. 

V 

Mr.  Lindner,  of  the  Cedar  Hill  Green- 
houses, is  spending  week-ends  with  his 
family  at  their  cottage  at  Westbrook. 
He  has  been  remodeling  his  range.  The 
ferns,  chrysanthemums  and  cyclamen 
plants  are  looking  fine. 

The  Whiting  Greenhouses  have  just 
finished  replanting  the  rose  houses.  A 
successful  bedding  season  is  reported, 
the  firm  having  disposed  of  40,000  gera- 
niums, along  with  other  bedding  plants 
in  large  numbers.  They  are  busy  plant- 
ing chrysanthemums  for  the  fall  trade. 

The  large  rose  houses  at  Coombs' 
South  street  range  are  being  reset.  Mr. 
Osborne,  the  grower,  says  that  this  is 
the  most  backward  season  he  has  seen. 
Labor  conditions  make  it  impossible  to 
get  extra  help. 

Paul  Hubbard,  of  Bristol,  has  just 
returned  from  a  1,000-mile  automobile 
trip.     He  finds  business  good. 

Mr.  Andrews,  of  Andrews  Bros.,  is 
spending  his  vacation  with  his  family 
at  Woodmont. 

Joseph  McManus,  of  Spear  &  Mc- 
Manus  Co.,  is  spending  his  vacation  at 
Ocean  Beach,  New  London.  He  is  also 
devoting  some  time  to  the  plans  for  his 
new  store,  to  be  erected  on  the  site  of 
his  present  one,  on  Asylum  street. 

Pehl  the  Florist  has  been  busy  with 
weddings.  There  have  been  an  unusual 
number  in  his  section  of  the  city. 

Among  the  large  weddings  for  which 
Coombs  the  Florist  had  decorations  was 
the  Mackey-Whipple  wedding  at  the 
Asylum  Avenue  Congregational  church.

Federal  EUastic  Cement  is  put  up  in  all  sizes  from  1

of  putty.  It  is  cheaper  than  putty  and  will  last  at  least 
from  two  to  five  times  as  long.  It  holds  the  glass,  thus 
reducing  breakage.  These  are  just  a  few  of  the  many 
reasons  why  you  should  use  Federal  Elastic  Cement  for 
your  glazing  work.  Placing  your  order  now  assures  you  of

Our  patent  LEAK-PROOF  locked  gutter  has  proven  a  success.  If

Horticoltuial  Exhibition. 

The  annual  exhibition  of  the  Newport 
Horticultural  Society  was  held  July  1, 
having  been  postponed  one  week  be- 
cause of  the  lateness  of  the  season.  It 
was  staged  in  the  convention  hall  at 
Newport  Beach,  but,  owing  to  the 
"  change  in  dates,  was  not  so  large  or  so 
} elaborate  an  exhibition  as  usual;  never- 
theless, it  was  well  worth  seeing  and 
attracted  throngs  of  persons,  no  admis- 
sion being  charged  to  the  hall. 

The  exhibits  were  well  arranged, 
Richard  Gardner,  president  of  the  so- 
ciety, being  manager  of  the  exhibition; 
Fred  P.  Webber  was  secretary  and  Wil- 
liam Smith  sergeant-at-arms,  the  three 
constituting  the  committee  in  charge. 
The  two  leading  exhibitors  proved  to 
be  Colin  Robertson,  gardener  for  Mrs. 
Robert  Goelet,  who  took  eleven  first 
prizes,  and  William  G.  Taylor,  who  took 
nine  firsts. 

Perhaps  the  most  prominent  among 
the  exhibits  was  that  of  William  Gray, 
gardener  for  Princess  Christopher,  of 
Greece,  formerly  Mrs.  William  B.  Leeds. 
This  was. an  exhibit  of  cut  flowers  and 
plants  artistically  arranged  in  a  group 
on  a  table  six  feet  in  diameter,  the 
color  scheme  being  especially  effective. 
The  exhibit  received  a  gratuity  of  $25. 

Among  the  best  of  the  other  exhibits 
were  the  roses  shown  by  Colin  Robert- 
son. The  sweet  peas  exhibited  by  Wil- 
liam Taylor  were  among  the  best  ever 
shown  by  the  society.  William  Smith, 
gardener  for  Mrs.  George  S.  Scott,  had 
several  specimens  of  rubber  plants  and 
James  Hooper,  gardener  for  Mrs.  T.  K. 
Gibbs,  had  a  display  of  ramblers;  the 
latter  was  awarded  three  gratuities  for 
showings  of  Ismene  calathina,  Gillenia 
trifoliata  and  blue  salvia.        W.  H.  M.

The  Market. 

Considering  the  time  of  year  and  the 
hot  weather,  business  has  been  excel- 
lent. There  is  a  good  supply  of  almost 
everything,  but  nothing  in  the  nature 
of  a  glut  has  occurred  yet.  There  has 
been  almost  no  funeral  work  lately  and 
pot  plants  of  any  kind  cannot  be  had. 
In  spite  of  the  good  supply,  roses  still 
bring  about  the  same  price.  Sweet  peas 
are  scarce,  as  the  greenhouse-grown  are 
gone  and  the  outdoor  stock  is  just  com- 
ing in.  Good  Shasta  daisies  and  lark- 
spurs are  to  be  had  now. 

Various  Notes. 

Practically  all  of  tlie  downtown  stores 
were  closed  July  5,  perhaps  the  one  day 
in  the  year  when  that  happens. 

J.  E.  Barker,  proprietor  of  the  Trini- 
dad Floral  Co.,  Trinidad,  Colo.,  was  a 
visitor  last  week. 

W.  W.  Willmore  is  cutting  fine  Shasta 
daisies. 

Holly  Zolman,  at  1901  South  Logan 
street,  will  soon  begin  repair  work  on 
his  entire  establishment.  In  addition 
he  will  build  two  new  houses  for  carna- 
tions and  a  new  office.

An  Elastic  Cement  That  Expands 
and    Contracts    With    the   Weather 

Make  your  greenhouse  weather-tisht  with  Aabestfalt. 
the  elastic  cement  that  never  gets  hard,  cracks  or 
peels  in  cold  weather  or  runs  in  hot  weather. 

91.25  per  gallon.  Why  pay  more? 
You  can't  get  anything  better  no  matter  how  much 
more  you  pay.  The  ingredients  are  of  the  purest; 
weighs  but  10  pounds  to  the  gallon. 
With  the  scarcity  of  coal  and  its  high  prices,  the 
careful  application  of  Asbestfalt  will  more  than  pay 
for  itself  by  keeping  your  greenhouse  air-tight. 


To  insure  best  results,  apply  Asbestfalt 
with  our  Liquid  Putty  Machine,  pries 
S2.00.  With  every  barrel  purchase  of 
Asbestfalt,  one  machine  free.

Asbestos 


Black  Glazing  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  compoaition  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  exptosed  to  the  oxygen 
of  the  air)  forma  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. 


Eiolyspplied  with  a  bulber.  No  domay  tools  necewuy.

our  product  we  furnish  the  fol-

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. 

One  gallon  is  sufficient  to  glaze  500  lineal  feet  of  sash.

HARDY  PLANTS 

HABDY   PLANTS 

There  seems  to  be  something  of  a  fad  Just  now 
to  plant  hardy  gardens  all  in  blue.  It  is  good 
salesmanship  to  sell  people  what  they  want,  if 
you  can  deliver  the  goods. 

Following  is  a  list  of  blue  perennials  we  can 
supply  in  strong  year-old  plants.  Price  Includes 
packing  charges  for  careful  work.

AM    AN    AGENT    FOR    ZVOLlANEK'S    SWEET 
PEA   SEED. 

These  will  be  sent  direct  from  their  office  In 
original    packets. 

IJelow  are  originator's  description  of  various 
varieties  listed. 

ZVOLANEK'S  XMAS  PINK  ORCHID.  Every 
year  this  variety  seems  to  take  more  in  favor 
with  the  trade.  It  Is  now  In  such  shape  that 
hardly  one  per  cent  does  not  come  true.  It  keeps 
its  colors  well  for  days  without  bleaching. 
Every  grower  recommends  it.  Per  oz.,  75c; 
4  ozs.,   $2.50;   1  lb.,   $0.00. 

ZVOLANEK'S  ROSE,  shell  pink.  This  is  the 
best  and  largest  of  all.  We  introduced  It  only 
two  years  ago  and  It  takes  with  every  commer- 
cial grower.  Everyone  who  has  tried  it  once 
wants  It  on  a  larger  scale.  We  have  already 
booked  large  advance  orders.  A  large  acreage 
has  been  planted  to  meet  the  demand,  but  at 
the  same  time,  we  advise  you  to  order  as  early 
as  possible,  for  when  the  rush  comes  we  may 
be  sold  out.  The  flowers  are  of  the  most  beau- 
tiful self-rose,  double  the  size  of  Mrs.  Skach 
and  it  is  a  free  bloomer  in  winter  as  well  as 
out  of  doors.  1  oz.,  $4.00;  4  ozs.,  $12.00;  1  lb., 
$40.00. 

« 

MISS  LOUISE  GIIDE.  very  large,  and  has  been 
largely  grown  by  the  largest  commercial  grow- 
ers since  its  introduction. 

MRS.  A.  A,  SKACH.  The  well-known  variety 
of  the  clear  pink  color. 

ROSE  QUEEN  Is  synonomous  In  every  partic- 
ular with  the  former.  All  three  above  varieties, 
1  oz.,  50c;  4  ozs.,  $1.50;   1  lb.,  $5.00. 

VENUS.  Best  shaped  flower,  white  edged 
pink. 

BRIDAL  VEIL.  Our  best  white  seeded  since 
their  introduction  and  highly  esteemed  by  many 
commercial  florists.  Both  above  varieties,  oz., 
75c;  4  ozs..  $2.75;  lb.,  $10.00. 

MRS.  CHAS.  ZVOLANEK  is  the  leader  In  all 
lavender.  Beautiful  clear  lavender  of  great  size. 
The  best  of  its  Color  yet  Introduced.  It  does 
not  change  color  in  winter  and  is  unexcelled  for 
outdoor  culture. 

ZVOLANEK'S  PALE  BLUB,  Introduced  by  us 
only  two  years  ago,  it  is  now  grown  by  thou- 
sands of  commercial  florists  and  is  gaining 
friends  every  year.  Its  good  shipping  qualities 
and  its  beautiful  sky-blue  colors  make  It  a 
great  seller  on  sight.  Both  above,  1  oz.,  75c;  4 
ozs.,   $2.75;   1  lb.,   $10.00. 

LAVENDER  NORA,  clear  lavender;  1  oz.,  50c; 
4  ozs.,   $1.50. 

ZVOLANEK'S  ORANGE,  Introduced  only  last 
year,  it  has  gained  friends  all  over  the  world. 
First  class  for  greenhouse  growing,  as  well  as 
for  outdoors.  1  oz.,  $4.00;  4  ozs.,  $12.00;  1  lb., 
$40.00. 

ZVOLANEK'S  XMAS  RED.  This  is  one  of  our 
first  Introductions  In  the  Orchid  flowering  types. 
The  color  is  old  red;  a  good  sized  flower.  We 
abandoned  it  a  few  years  ago,  but  are  growing 
it  now  on  request  from  many  of  our  customers, 
who  claim  that  it  does  not  drop  the  buds  so 
badly  during  the  dark  winter  days  as  some  of 
the  other  red   varieties. 

ZVOLANEK'S  BEAUTY,  clear  flery  dark  rose; 
a  color  by  Itself.  Very  large  flowers  which  are 
wide  apart,  consequently  making  large  bunches 
when  cut.  All  our  old  growers  want  it.  It  is 
a  good  seller.  Good  for  winter  and  summer.

many  years  largely  grown  by  the  mapority  of 
commercial  growers.  Bach  of  above,  1  oz.,  40c;

"About  two  years  ago,"  observed 
Fred  Calvert,  of  the  Flower  Shop,  Lima, 
O.,  "it  occurred  to  me  that  the  place 
commonly  identified  with  the  famous 
bean  bearing  the  name  of  Lima  would 
be  a  likely  spot  for  a  traveler  to  locate 
and  the  wisdom  of  the  decision  to  do  so 
has  been  proved,  as  it  has  necessitated 
taking  a  partner.  He  is  J.  Allen  Grubb 
and  we  have  all  we  can  reasonably  care 
for."  They  intend  to  go  to  the  S.  A. 
F.  convention  in  Cleveland  in  August, 
because  they  are  anxious  to  mingle  with 
the  "live  wires"  of  the  trade.  Mr. 
Calvert  and  Mr.  Grubb  are  entertainers 
also,  the  former  being  a  basso  and  the 
latter  a  tenor,  and  they  earn  for  them- 
selves and  for   their  business   enviable 

notoriety.

Glimpse  in  the  Half  Iron  P^'ranie  Fern  House  of  Hugo  Klot/.. 


1  The  Through  and  Through  Bolted  Through 


A  banana  by  itself  is  a  well 
behaved,  perfectly  reasonable 
fruit. 

But  once  you  peel  off  the  skin, 
all  decency  and  responsibility 
seem  to  cease. 

That  skin  will  just  lay  around 
in  wait,  looking  for  anybody 
it  can  slip  up. 

It  would  as  soon  slip  up 
King  George  as  the  garbage 
man. 


In  some  particulars,  column 
fittings  are  like  a  banana.  No 
amount  of  clamping  on  seems 
to  prevent  tlieni  from  giving 
you  the  sliii  up.  when  you 
least  expect  it. 


?tm  i^ometimes  it  only  means  glass 

^j||  breakage. 

^^  Then     again,     the    house 

vjy  spreads.

The  strut  or  branch  cap  is  bolted  to 
the  column  tittlnj,'  iind  then  boltiMl 
thrniiirh  and  throutrli  llie  branch. 


And  there  are  a  number  of 
cases  on  record  where  houses 
have  gone  down. 

Slipping  on  a  banana  peel 
may  only  break  a  bone  or  two. 
But  slipping  off  of  clamp  col- 
umn fittings  may  break  such 
a  hole  in  your  bank  roll  that 
you'll  have  to  put  on  your 
high  geared  glasses  to  see 
anything  left  but  the  hole. 

That,  then,  is  why  we  bolt 
our  column  fittings  through 
and  through. 

.lust  naturally,  a  Half  Iron 
Frame  house,  using  such  fit- 
tings, is  as  solid  as  a  rock. 

Kvery  part  is  there  to  stay 
there. 

Furthermore,  we  go  anywhere 
for  business,  or  to  talk  busi- 
ness.

Hot  Weather  and  Boilers 


To  the  average  person  it 
seems  almost  foolish  to 
talk  about  boilers  at  this 
time  of  the  year,  but  to  the 
greenhouse  man,  who  will  have 
to  see  to  the  heating  of  his 
greenhouses  next  winter,  it  is 
a  most  opportune  time. 

You  have  known  for  years  that 

we   are    greenhouse    heating 

experts,  but  you  will  probably 

not  realize  that  this  year  it  will  be  necessary  to  get  started 

installing  or  repairing  your  heating  system  earlier  than 

usual.    This  is  due  to  the  extreme  shortage  of  heating 

materials  of  all  kinds. 

Better  get  your  orders  in  now  while  our  stock  is  in  good  shape. 
Everything  from  boilers  to  pet  cocks  carried  in  stock. 
Elaborate  vacuum  heating  systems  or  simple  hot  water  jobs.

Another  Thing 


Has  Said 


It's  plain  as  day  that  somebody  besides  Tommy,  the 

office  boy,  has  been  dozing. 

Not  only  dozing,  but  sound  asleep. 

After  saying  which,  let  me  explain  this  outburst. 

Going  on  for  a  half  century  more  or  less,  we  have 
been  trying  to  say  something  that  would  say  Just  the 
thing  that  ought  to  be  said  about  our  houses.  We 
wanted  to  say  it  in  such  a  way  that  we  wouldn't  be 
accused  of  saying  so  sweeping  a  thing,  for  example,  as: 
"Lord  &  Burnham  houses  are  the  best  houses  built." 

Still,  in  all  frankness,  it's  exactly  what  we  would 
like  to  have  said. 

Like  to  because,  like  yourself,  we  honestly  believe 
it's  so. 

However,  there  are  a  lot  of  growers  who  would  at 
once  say  we  were  bursting  our  cheeks  blowing  our 
own  horn. 
So  that's  why  we  have  kept  sort  of  still  iind  waited 


for  someone  or  something  to  blow  it  that  much  for  us. 
That  very  thing  has  happened. 
This  is  how. 

Last  night  we  were  checking  up  the  prize  winnings 

in  the  Flower  Shows  of  the  country,  covering  a  period 

of  ten  years. 

We  checked  the  names  of  the  winners,  against  the 

names  on  our  customer  list  who  had  our  houses. 

The  agreeable  fact  showed  up  that  76  per  cent  of  the 

prizes  awarded  were  won  with  flowers  grown  in  Lord 

&  Burnham  houses. 

So.  seemingly,   they  have  "Said  It  With  Flowers," 

while  we  have  been  struggling  to  say  it  with  words. 

So  whether  George  Stumpp's  Ancient  Monk,  or  Major 
O'Keefe's  fertile  mind  created  the  phrase,  it  certainly 
is  a  masterpiece. 

When  you  "Say  It  With  Flowers"  nothing  remains 
to  be  said.

Q 


How  Do  You 

Buy  Moss  ? 


By  the  bale  ?    Certainly. 

Every  bale  of  moss  looks 
the  same.  But  the  eye  is 
deceptive. 

There  is  the  "  supposed-to- 
be"  standard  size  bale  of 
moss,  44  X  14  X  14,  and  the 
"Rando  Brand"  bale  of 
moss,  which  is  48x14x16. 
Naturally,  there  is  a  slight 
difference  in  price,  but  the 
"Rando  Brand"  bale  con- 
tains over  20%  more  moss 


than  you  would  get  if  you 
buy  the  "supposed -to -be" 
standard  size  44x14x14  bale. 
When  you  are  ordering  moss 
consider  price,  quantity  and 
quality. 

Because  we  have  our  own 
swamps  —  because  we  har- 
vest, dry,  prepare  and  bale 
our  own  moss,  you  will  find, 
by  placing  one  order  for 
moss,  that  you  receive  all 
of  these  when  you  specify 
"Rando  Brand."

HERE'S  THE   HOW 

OF    OIL    HEATING 

In  attempting  to  solve  the  two  prohlems  of  fuel  and  labor,  many  green- 
house men,  in  various  sections  of  the  country,  have  adopted  oil  heating  for 
their  ranges.  Others  are  thinking  of  it.  These  may  find  helpful  suggestions 
in  the  experience  of  one  user  of  it,  here  carefully  set  forth. 


HILE  to  some  extent  the 
application  of  oil  heating 
to  greenhouses  must  bo 
worked  out  by  each  owner 
for  himself,  the  experience 
of  those  who  have  em- 
ployed it  will  have  a  cer- 
tain guiding  value.  For 
six  years  I  have  had  oil 
heating  in  my  range  in 
Wyoming  and  would  not  go  back  to 
coal  so  long  as  I  could  get  oil  at  a 
reasonable  price.  Oil  heating  requires 
care  and  patience,  but  in  general  it  is 
a  great  labor  saver.  Except  when  the 
system  is  being  cleaned  out,  it  allows 
much  greater  cleanliness  in  the  boiler 
room.  The  matter  of  expense  depends 
largely  on  local  conditions. 
Four  important  questions 
to  be  considered  are  the 
oil,  the  burner,  the  storage 
of  the  oil  and  the  regula- 
tion of  the  oil  and  steam  to 
secure  proper  combustion. 
I  assume  that  the  steam  jet 
method  is  used  to  vaporize 
the  oil;  that  seems  to  me 
the  only  desirable  method. 
The  steam  jet  burner  can 
be  used  most  satisfactorily 
when  the  heating  system  is 
steam  and  when  the  burner 
takes  its  steam  directly 
from  the  boiler  it  is  heat- 
ing. 


By  WILLIAM  MOSTELLER. 

too  explosive  to  be  used  for  fuel,  but 
the  heavier  asphalt  base  crude  oil  is 
reasonably  safe  and  can  often  be  ob- 
tained at  a  price  and  in  quantities  to 
justify  its  use  as  fuel. 

If  Good  at  All,  Then  Excellent. 

While  of  course  one  needs  to  give  an 
oil  fire  constant  attention  in  getting 
the  steam  up  to  the  desired  pressure 
and  making  the  proper  adjustment  of 
oil  and  steam  for  that  pressure  and  load, 
once  the  burner  is  so  adjusted  it  will, 
barring  some  irregularity  in  the  oil, 
maintain  that  steam  pressure  indefinite- 
ly without  further  attention  than  keep- 


Kinds  of  OIL 


THE  FUEL  THAT  FLOWS 


>>    o    ♦>    ♦> 


Commercial  fuel  oil  is  the 
residue  of  any  one  of  a 
number  of  crude  oils  from 
which  all  of  the  more  valu- 
able oils  and  gases  have 
been  extracted.  This  oil  is 
safe  under  any  conditions 
to  be  found  in  a  boiler 
room;  unless  it  is  quite  hot 
it  can  hardly  be  set  on  fire 
by  any  ordinary  means.  If 
coaxed  into  a  blaze  with  a 
bonfire,  it  gives  off  little 
heat  but  great  quantities  of 
dense,  black  smoke. 

Any  steam  jet  burner  which  will 
burn  fuel  oil  will  also  burn  crude  oil, 
distillate  or  kerosene.  Distillate  and 
kerosene  are  expensive,  but  a  barrel  of 
either  one  of  them,  used  in  an  emer- 
gency, may  cost  much  less  than  the 
value  of  the  crop  which  would  other- 
wise be  lost.  These  two  forms  of  oil 
fuel  can  be  used  with  less  pressure  than 
fuel  oil  requires  and,  since  they  will 
not  clog  the  burner,  can  be  fed  in 
smaller  amounts  than  fuel  oil.  Paraffin 
base  crude  oil  is  both  too  expensive  and 


It  will  flow  to  the  storage  tank;  it  will 
flow  to  the  boiler,  and,  once  the  burner 
is  properly  adjusted,  it  will  often  take 
care  of  the  fire  for  days  with  little 
further  attention  than  the  replenishing 
of  the  supply  tank.  With  neither  dust 
nor  ashes,  there  is  no  outside  dirt 
except  when  the  system  is  being 
cleaned  out.  Oil  has  many  advan- 
tages which  interest  the  greenhouse 
owner,  particularly  at  the  present  time. 


absolutely  and,  since  there  is  no  bed  of 
coals,  the  boiler  cools  quickly. 

The  essentials  for  a  proper  oil  heat- 
ing system  are,  I  believe,  as  follows: 
Not  less  than  twenty  pounds  of  steam 
pressure;  a  steam  jet  burner  propor- 
tioned to  meet  the  needs  of  the  boiler 
under  which  it  is  used;  the  steam  to  be 
taken  from  the  boiler  being  operated  j 
a  small  supply  tank  placed  eight  or  ten 
feet  above  the  burner,  and  a  closed, 
back-to-the-boiler  system  of  radiation, 
maintaining  a  steady  pressure  in  the 
boiler. 

For  ranges  covering  20,000  square 
feet  and  upwards,  I  should  advise  send- 
ing to  some  oil  well  supply  house  and 
obtaining  two  or  more  standard  burners 
having  a  round  hole  in  the 
tip  of  both  the  oil  and  the 
steam  tubes.  According  to 
my  experience,  it  would  be 
unwise  to  get  a  burner 
which  has  slots  or  other 
devices  from  which  the  oil. 
is  blown  into  the  fijrebox. 
But,  except  perhaps  for  the 
needle  valve,  which  con- 
trols the  flow  of  oil,  any 
ingenious  person  having 
pipe  tools  and  drills  at 
hand  can  construct  a  burn- 
er as  good  aa  the  best  and, 
in  addition,  have  it  of  the 
particular  size  desired.  The 
detailed  directions  for  such 
construction  would  occupy 
more  space  than  is  at  my 
disposal  here. 


Size  of  Burners. 


ing  oil,  without  fail,  in  the  supply  tank. 
I  have  lost  more  than  one  night's 
sleep  fooling  with  dirty  or  wet  oil,  but, 
with  clean  oil  and  no  water,  I  have 
never  lost  a  minute's  sleep  on  account 
of  fire  and  my  oil  fire  has  never  yet 
gone  out  unless  the  fuel  was  turned  off. 
However,  it  is  advisable  to  connect  an 
electric  doorbell  with  a  pair  of  dry  cells 
and  the  indicator  of  the  steam  gauge  in 
such  a  way  that  the  bell  will  ring  in 
case  the  steam  pressure  begins  to  fall. 
When  an  oil  fire  does  go  out  it  goes  out 


A  burner  of  the  smallest 
practicable  size  will  take 
care  of  any  boiler  up  to 
twenty  horsepower.  Two 
of  this  size,  one  on  each 
side,  with  a  third  made 
with  a  %-inch  steam  tube, 
instead  of  a  %-inch,  and  a 
%-inch  oil  tube,  instead  of 
a  %-inch,  with  valve  and 
holes  in  proportion,  will 
take  care  of  a  boiler  up  to 
100  horsepower.  In  such  a  combination 
the  larger  burner  could  be  used  alone 
most  of  the  time;  in  especially  cold 
weather  this  one  could  be  cut  out  and 
the  two  smaller  ones  used,  with  the 
larger  one  held  in  reserve.  Extra  burn- 
ers should  always  be  on  hand,  well 
cleaned  and  ready  for  instant  use,  in 
case  those  in  use  become  clogged  at  the 
oil  valve  or  coke  burns  fast  to  the  tip, 
making  a  change  necessary. 

It  is  best  to  put  the  one  burner  used 
for  continuous  operation  under  the  cen-

The  Florists^  Review

ter  of  the  boiler.  All  burners  should 
enter  the  fire  box  at  or  below  the  grate 
level.  Place  a  gate  valve  in  the  oil 
line  high  enough  to  allow  taking  off, 
below  it,  separate  lines  for  as  many 
burners  as  are  to  be  operated.  Each 
oil  line  should  have  a  t)lugged  tee  in  it 
near  the  burner  to  permit  blowing  out 
that  oil  line  with  steam  when  clogged. 
Put  a  valve  in  each  oil  pipe  leading  to 
a  burner,  on  the  other  side  of  the  tee 
from  the  burner,  in  order  that  the  oil 
line  may  be  closed  at  will  to  take  off  or 
blow  out  the  burner. 

Steam  for  the  Burner. 

The  steam  for  operating  the  burner 
«hould  be  taken,  from  an  independent 
point  on  the  boiler,  in  no  case  from 
Another  line  or  main.  Keep  that  steam 
pipe  as  near  the  boiler  as  possible  or 
wrap  it  well  with  asbestos  to  prevent 
■condensation.  A  globe  valve  of  the 
same  size  as  the  steam  tube  of  the 
burner  should  be  attached  to  the  steam 
pipe  to  control  the  steam.  I  find  it  most 
<5onvenient  to  place  the  steam  line  or 
lines  above  the  fire  doors  and  the  oil 
lines  between  the  fire  and  draft  doors. 

It  is,  I  believe,  necessary  that  the 
flame  of  an  oil  fire  be  prevented  from 
striking,  either  directly  or  indirectly, 
the  plates  or  flues  of  a,  boiler;  therefore 
a  target  of  fire  brick  should  be  built  for 
the  flame  to  strike  against,  in  such  a 
manner  that  it  will  not  be  deflected 
against  the  plates.  I  should  prefer  not 
to  operate  a  cast-iron  boiler  with  oil 
under  any  circumstances. 

Storage  and  Supply  Tanks. 

Coming  to  the  storage  tank  for  the 
oil,  I  should  recommend  one  constructed 
of  heavy  galvanized  iron.  It  should 
be  oil-tight  and  water,  mouse,  bug  and 
insect-proof.  Placed  preferably  almost 
entirely  underground,  it  should  be  well 
coated  with  aaphalt  on  the  outside.  It 
is  most  economical  to  have  a  storage 
tank  which  will  hold  a  full  carload  of 
oil;  that  is,  200  barrels.  This  amount, 
allowing  as  high  as  ten  per  cent  for 
waste  in  the  form  of  unburnable  sedi- 
ment, will  probably  be  sufficient  for  the 
whole  season  for  each  5,000  feet  of 
glass  in  the  range.  My  own  average  is 
125  barrels  for  that  amount  of  glass, 
allowing  nothing  for  waste.  A  tank 
wagon  will  be  required  if  the  storage 
tank  is  too  far  from  the  railroad  for  the 
oil  to  be  unloaded  directly  into  it. 

If  the  storage  tank  is  below  the  level 
of  the  burners,  as  it  is  likely  to  be,  a 
small  supply  tank,  to  which  the  oil  can 
be  pumped  from  the  storage  tank,  will 
be  required  above  the  burners.  This 
small  tank  should  have  two  openings  in 
the  bottom,  a  1-inch  for  the  oil  line  and 
a  2-inch  in  the  center,  where  two  or 
three  feet  of  2-inch  pipe  may  be  at- 
tached, bushed  at  the  lower  end  for  a 
«4-inch  stoam  cock;  this  would  serve  as  a 
water  trap  and  also  for  cleaning  out  sed- 
iment from  the  tank.  A  valve  in  the 
lower  end  of  this  pipe  would  not  do, 
since,  if  the  hole  for  drawing  off  the 
water  is  more  than  %-inch,  suction  will 
draw  off  more  oil  than  water.  This 
email  supply  tank  serves  well  for  a  trap 
to  catch  all  sediment  and  is  easily 
cleaned  out.  I  have  never  found  it  nec- 
essary to  clean  out  my  storage  tank,  as 
I  get  all  the  dirt,  a  little  at  a  time,  in 
the  small  tank.  Furthermore,  in  case 
of  accident  or  of  the  fire  going  out 
when  no  one  was  near,  the  most  oil  that 
would  be  lost  would  be  whatever  the 
BJnaW  tank  contained. 


The  oil  must  be  kept  entirely  free 
from  water.  It  is  said  that  oil  and 
water  will  not  mix,  but  with  fuel  oil  it 
is  different.  While  free  water  can 
eventually  be  drained  off,  the  small 
particles  of  coke  and  earth  will  hold 
water  in  suspension  for  an  indefinite 
time.  Oil  so  saturated  cannot  be 
burned;  a  rag  soaked  in  such  oil  and 
ignited  will  sizzle  and  fry.  In  the  fire 
box,  if  the  fire  flies  into  a  mass  of 
sparks  it  means  either  water  in  the  oil 
or  condensation  from  an  improperly 
protected  or  too  long  steam  line. 

Starting  the  Fire. 

With  the  storage  and  supply  tanks 
installed  and  the  oil  burner  or  burners 
ready  in  the  altered  fire  box,  it  is  time 
to  think  of  starting  the  fire. 

It  is  advisable  for  a  beginner  to  fire 
up  with  wood  the  first  few  times.  Pile 
in  wood  or  rubbish  that  will  burn  well 
until  the  steam  gauge  registers  twenty 
pounds.  Now  open  the  steam  line  and 
blow  out  condensation,  leaving  steam  on 


Do  You  Bum  Oil? 

If  you  do,  quite  possibly  your 
experience  has  been  different 
from  that  described  in  these 
columns.  There  may  be  other 
greenhouse  men,  readers  of  The 
Review,  in  your  section  who 
would  profit  by  learning  of  your 
experience,  gained  under  the 
same  conditions  as  their  own. 

Your  contribution  would  add 
to  The  Review's  presentation 
of  the  subject.  By  that  means 
the  whole  trade  learns  w^hat 
each  member  of  it  learns. 

So  tell  us  your  exjjerience 
with  oil  heating,  both  your  trials 
and  your  triumphs. 


until  line  and  burner  are  hot;  close  the 
steam  valve  and  rake  to  one  side  any 
ashes  or  unburned  matter  that  may  be 
in  the  path  of  the  oil  flame,  which  will 
not  start  if  there  is  any  obstruction  in 
front  of  the  burner,  and  then  open  the 
oil  valve,  to  make  sure  the  oil  will  flow, 
and  close  it  again.  Be  sure  that  there 
is  a  lively  blaze  in  the  fire  box  from 
either  the  wood  or  a  rag  dipped  in  kero- 
sene and  thrown  in;  open  the  steam 
valve  one  turn  of  the  wheel;  slowly 
open  oil  valve,  and  the  fire  is  started. 
Never  turn  on  oil  and  steam  without 
having  a  good  blaze  in  the  fire  box,  no 
matter  how  hot  the  fire  box  may  be; 
always  close  the  oil  valve  at  once  if 
the  blaze  goes  out  before  the  fire  starts. 
Too  much  oil  for  the  steam  will  cause 
black  smoke;  too  much  steam  for  the 
oil  will  cause  a  light-colored  fog,  with 
a  flame  that  is  broken  up,  sickly  and  apt 
to  go  out. 

To  increase  the  fire  when  first  started, 
turn  on  oil  until  the  flame  sho'"«  amoke; 


turn  on  more  steam  until  the  flame 
shortens,  and  then  turn  on  oil  and  steam 
as  before. 

If  wood  is  available  in  large  quanti- 
ties and  at  a  reasonable  price,  if  is 
practicable  to  depend  entirely  upon 
wood  to  start  the  fire;  otherwise  a  small 
steam  boiler  must  be  installed.  I  use 
both  methods,  but  find,  since  installing 
an  80-horsepower  boiler,  that  my  little 
2-hor8epower  boiler  will  not  hold  enough 
water  with  one  filling  to  get  up  steam 
in  this  large  boiler,  starting  from  a  cold 
condition.  I  believe  that  a  4-hor8e- 
power  vertical  boiler  would  be  much 
better  for  this  purpose.  If  the  boiler 
is  to  be  shut  down  for  only  three  or 
four  hours  in  the  middle  of  the  day, 
radiation  may  be  shut  off,  steam  pushed 
up  a  few  pounds  and  the  fire  turned  out; 
if  the  boiler  is  well  protected,  it  will 
generally  hold  steam  until  the  fire  is 
needed  again. 

Getting  up  the  First  Steam. 

Twenty  pounds  steam  pressure,  hav- 
ing the  steam  valve  half  open  and  the 
oil  valve  wide  open,  should  be  about 
the  proper  adjustment  if  the  burner  is 
rightly  made.  Then  the  fire  can  be 
turned  up  by  closing  the  steam  valve 
more  or  less,  but  to  turn  the  fire  down 
to  any  extent  it  will  be  necessary  to 
close  the  oil  valve  as  much  as  may  be 
required  and  adjust  the  steam  valve  to 
the  amount  of  oil.  When  a  burner  has 
the  oil  valve  entirely  open  and  the 
steam  valve  has  been  closed  until  a 
faint  trace  of  red  flame  can  be  seen  in 
the  fire,  with  tiny  ringlets  of  smoke  at 
the  tip  of  the  flame,  the  capacity  of  that 
burner  has  been  reached. 

The  higher  the  pressure  of  steam 
used,  the  less  the  volume  which  will  be 
required.  Consequently,  with  a  greater 
pressure  a  smaller  quantity  of  water  is 
taken  from  the  boiler  as  steam  to 
operate  the  burner.  Ordinarily  at 
twenty  pounds  pressure  one-half  gallon 
of  water  is  taken  from  the  boiler  for 
every  gallon  of  oil  burned;  therefore 
the  water  capacity  of  the  boiler  will 
determine  how  often  the  water  level  in 
it  will  need  attention.  It  is  an  advan- 
tage to  arrange  to  carry  a  pressure  of 
twenty-five  or  thirty  pounds,  so  as  to 
have  a  reserve  of  five  or  ten  pounds, 
giving  time  to  change  burners  if  neces- 
sary without  shutting  off  the  radiation. 

Test  of  a  Good  Fire. 

Many  oil  firemen  believe  that  if  no 
smoke  can  be  seen  issuing  from  the 
stack  the  fire  is  perfect,  but  I  have 
found  this  to  be  true  only  to  a  limited 
extent.  I  believe  that  the  one  test  for 
a  clean  fire  is  that  the  fire  and  fire  box 
should  be  the  beginning  and  the  end; 
nothing  should  go  beyond.  And  the 
fire  box  itself  should  be  clear  of  smoke 
or  fog.  Not  a  trace  of  red  should  be 
seen  even  at  the  very  tips  of  the  flame, 
which  should  be  pure  white  with  a  tinge 
of  yellow,  perhaps,  at  tips  and  edges. 
With  an  asphalt  base  oil  it  may  be  im- 
possible to  prevent  a  slight  fog  in  the 
fire  box;  also,  when  the  fire  is  being 
started  it  may  be  somewhat  red  and 
smoky  until  the  fire  box  is  well  heated. 

The  arrangement  for  draft  is  at  times 
rather  difficult.  The  holes  for  the 
burners  and  the  open  slides  in  the  regu- 
lar draft  doors  will  generally  give  draft 
enough.  I  have  sometimes  found  it 
necessary  to  open  the  fuel  doors  a  little, 
thereby  giving  draft  above  the  oil 
flame.   Oil  in  burning,  together  with  the

jet  of  steam,  causes  some  draft.  The 
burner  holes  should  be  large  enough  to 
nllow  running  a  small  rod  alongside  the 
burner  to  break  off  any  coke  which  may 
form  on  the  burner  tip  or  the  brick- 
work near  it;  an  additional  con- 
venience is  a  rod  flattened  at  one  end 
and  bent  at  right  angles,  which  may  be 
reached  in  and  held  over  the  end  of  the 
burner,  so  that  the  steam  can  be  blown 
back  through  the  oil  tube  and  out 
ihrough  the  tee,  from  which  the  plug 


has   been   removed,   thus   cleaning   out 
the  burner. 

Steam  Jet  with  Hot  Water. 

Finally,  it  should  be  noted  that  if  a 
steam  jet  burner  is  used  with  a  hot 
water  boiler,  an  auxiliary  steam  boiler, 
fired  with  coal,  wood  or  gas,  will  be  re- 
quired continuously  to  furnish  steam  to 
heat  and  atomize  the  oil.  With  twenty 
to  twenty-five  pounds  pressure  the  aux- 
iliary boiler  must  be  large   enough  to 


evaporate  and  heat  to  the  required 
pressure  one-half  gallon  of  water  for 
every  gallon  of  oil  burned.  There  are 
two  disadvantages  in  this  arrangement. 
It  will  be  more  difficult  to  keep  the 
pressure  in  the  smaller  boiler  constant, 
as  it  must  be  kept,  since  the  slightest 
change  there  will  upset  the  adjustment 
of  the  oil  burners.  And  the  greater 
length  of  the  steam  line  to  the  burner 
seems,  in  my  experience,  to  make  a  good 
fire  more  difficult  to  obtain.

Is  It  Coming  or  Ooing? 

Nowadays  no  greenhouse  man  needs 
to  have  his  attention  called  to  the  se- 
riousness of  the  fuel  problem.  His  own 
experience  has  told  him  of  that.  The 
scarcity  of  available  labor,  too,  has 
added  to  his  worries.  Many  greenhouse 
owners  have  sought,  and  others  are 
considering,  at  least  a  partial  solution 
to  the  first  problem  and  help  in  meet- 
ing the  second  by  the  adoption  of  oil 
heating  in  their  ranges.  A  summary  of 
some  of  the  important  considerations  in- 
volved may  simplify  the  question  for 
those  who  have  not  yet  made  the  de- 
cision. 

For  the  man  who  is  debating  the 
change  from  coal  to  oil,  the  first  ques- 
tion is  likely  to  be,  is  oil  cheaper  than 
coalf  That  will  depend,  of  course,  on 
local  conditions.  It  is  generally  esti- 
mated that  three  to  three  and  one-half 
barrels  of  crude  oil  or  of  fuel  oil  are 
equivalent  to  one  ton  of  bituminous 
coal.  That  estimate  will  give  some  basis 
for  comparison  when  the  local  prices 
for  oil  and  coal  have  been  ascertained. 
In  California,  where  oil  is  comparatively 
plentiful  and  coal  is  scarce,  oil  is  said 
to  be  sixty  per  cent  cheaper  than  coal; 
in  other  districts  the  saving  has  been 
stated  as  being  from  ten  to  thirty  per 
cent. 

Tlie  Nation's  Oil  Supply. 

But  what,  it  may  be  asked,  about  this 
scarcity  of  oil!  Is  there  danger  of  in- 
stalling the  oil  equipment  and  then 
finding,  after  a  few  years'  use,  that 
the  tremendous  demand  for  petroleum 
products  has  drained  the  country's  oil 
resources!  In  the  first  place,  the  actual 
installation  of  the  oil  burners  is  com- 
paratively simple;  the  greater  expense 
will  result  from  the  provision  for  the 
storage  and  transmission  of  the  oil. 

But  the  question  as  to  the  nation's 
supply  of  oil  is  more  difficult  to  answer; 
the  partisans  of  oil  on  one  side  and  coal 
on  the  other  seldom  seem  to  agree  as  to 
the  facts.  An  unprejudiced  view,  how- 
ever, that  recently  expressed  by  David 
White,  of  the  United  States  Geological 
Survey,  is  as  follows:  The  United 
States  has,  so  far  as  known,  about 
7,000,000,000  barrels  of  petroleum  avail- 
able in  the  ground;  the  present  annual 
production  is  about  400,000,000  barrels; 
during  the  last  eight  years  the  average 
annual  increase  in  production  has  been 
22,000,000  barrels;  the  present  un- 
derground supply  will,  in  theory,  be 
exhausted  in  about  seventeen  years,  but, 
because  of  delay  in  locating  all  the 
resources,  the  production  will  pass  its 


peak  in  five  or  possibly  in  three  years, 
while  decreasing  quantities  of  petroleum 
will  be  produced  during  several  decades. 
At  present  this  c(mntry  is  annually 
using  47,000,000  barrels  in  excess  of  its 
production. 

Oil  Shale  a  Possible  Source. 

In  this  connection,  some  hope  may  be 
derived  from  the  fact  that  this  country 
has  huge  deposits  of  oil  shale,  a  mineral 
substance  related  to  cannel  coal.  This 
oil  shale  yields  from  twenty  to  eighty 
gallons  of  oil  per  ton.  The  United 
States  Geological  Survey  estimates  that 
in  northwestern  Colorado  and  north- 
eastern Utah  there  is  enough  oil  shale 
to  yield  40,000,000,000  barrels  of  oil. 
And  that  is  only  part  of  the  nation's 
oil  shale  resources.  But  the  oil  shale 
industry  will  have  to  be  built  up  as  the 
coal  industry,  of  which  it  may  be  the 
successor,  has  been  built  up. 

Turning  from  supply  to  demand,  we 
find  that  the  program  of  the  United 
States  Shipping  Board  calls  for  1,734 
oil-burning  merchant  ships  by  1922  and 
that  the  board  has  called  for  50,000,000 
barrels  of  fuel  oil  for  1920  and  30,000,- 
000  barrels  for  the  first  half  of  1921. 
It  is  estimated  that  this  fleet  when 
completed  will  require  about  80,000,000 
barrels  of  oil  annually,  an  amount  ap- 
proximately equivalent  to  one-half  of 
all  the  fuel  oil  nowVproduced  in  this 
country.  The  navy  now  requires  8,000,- 
000  barrels  of  fuel  oil  annually.  Sec- 
retary of  Commerce  Alexander  has  re- 
cently suggested  the  holding  of  a  con- 
ference of  representatives  of  the  lead- 
ing refineries  and  users  of  fuel  oil  to 
work  out  some  joint  plan  of  distribu- 
tion. 

Growing  Competition  for  Oil. 

Consequently,  while  the  individual 
greenhouse  owner  may  decide,  after  his 
investigation  of  local  prices  and  local 
supply,  that  the  change  from  coal  to 
oil  will  be  an  economy  worth  adopting, 
even  for  a  few  years,  yet  the  long- 
range  outlook  has  its  clouds.  The  oil- 
burning  greenhouse  establishment  will 
have  to  meet  severe  competition  in  se- 
curing its  fuel,  competition  not  only 
with  the  government  but  with  the  large 
number  of  private  concerns  which  use 
oil  for  heating  or  for  steam  power  pro- 
duction. 

However,  aside  from  the  matter  of 
economy  as  compared  with  coal,  oil  has 
advantages  as  a  fuel  which  may  still 
turn  the  balance.  Oil  weighs  about  one- 
half  as  much  as  coal  of  equivalent  heat 
value  and  occupies  one-third  as  much 
space.  It  does  not  deteriorate  when 
stored.     It  can  be  handled  more  easily 


than  a  solid  fuel  like  coke  or  coal. 
There  are  no  ashes,  much  less  dirt  than 
with  coal  and  less  labor  required.  The 
lessening  of  work  is  true  also  in  the 
firing  of  the  boiler;  while  a  pump  will 
be  required  if  the  gravity  system  is  not 
used,  the  oil  fuel  can  be  piped  and  will 
not  have  to  be  shoveled.  Control  by 
thermostat  may  make  oil  heating  prac- 
tically automatic,  so  long  as  enough  fuel 
is  supplied.  The  heat  in  the  combustion 
chamber  is  more  continuous  with  oil 
than  with  coal,  since  the  doors  do  not 
have  to  be  opened  for  firing.  Loss  of 
heat  up  the  stack  is  diminished,  owing 
to  the  smaller  amount  of  air  required 
for  the  complete  combustion  of  oil.  A 
large  increase  in  steam  capacity  is  possi- 
ble; the  grate  area  limits  the  amount 
of  coal  which  can  be  burned  efficiently, 
but  oil  is  independent  of  that. 

The  Equipment. 

Just  how  complicated  the  oil  burning 
equipment  will  be  depends,  of  course, 
upon  the  particular  system  adopted.  In 
addition  to  the  storage  tank,  which  is 
likely  to  be  below  the  level  of  the  boiler, 
a  smaller  supply  tank  a  few  feet  above 
the  burner  will  probably  be  employed, 
with  a  pump  to  force  the  oil  up  into  it. 
If  the  burner  is  of  the  steam  jet  type 
and  the  heating  system  is  hot  water,  a 
small  auxiliary  boiler  will  be  required 
to  furnish  steam  to  heat  and  atomize 
the  oil.  When  the  burner  is  of  the  kind 
which  atomizes  the  oil  by  air  or  by 
mechanical  means,  a  separate  heater 
may  be  needed  for  heavy  oils  unless  an 
arrangement  for  heating  is  incorporated 
with  the  pumping  system.  A  water 
separator,  which  may  be  made  from  an 
old  steam  trap,  may  also  be  included  in 
the  system.  ^ 

Among  the  various  firms  supplying 
oil-burning  equipment  for  greenhouse 
heating,  the  following  may  be  named, 
as  representing  various  types  of  burner- 
W.  S.  Ray  Mfg.  Co.,  29  Spear  street, 
San  Francisco,  Cal.;  Rotary  Oil  Burner 
Co.,  159  Twelfth  street,  Oakland,  Cal.; 
Fess  System  Co.,  218  Natoma  street, 
San  Francisco,  Cal.;  S.  T.  Johnson  Co., 
1337  Mission  street,  San  Francisco,  Cal.; 
Fuel  Oil  Equipment  Co.,  218  State-Lake 
building,  Chicago. 

For  storing  oil,  the  small  tanks  are 
constructed  of  steel,  -ft-inch  or  14-inch, 
and  the  large  ones  frequently  of  con- 
crete or  of  steel  and  wood.  In  capacity 
they  range  generally  from  1,000  gallons 
up,  some  being  of  carload  capacity. 
These  storage  tanks  are  usually  placed 
underground,  preferably  below  the  frost 
line.  Unless  they  are  close  to  the  rail- 
road, a  tank  wagon  is  required  to  trans- 
port the  oil  from  car  to  storage  tank.

HAMILTON  PROGRAM  READY. 


Hearty  Invitation. 

The  handsome  booklet  embodying  the 
souvenir  program  of  the  convention  of 
the  Canadian  Horticultural  Association, 
at  Hamilton,  Ont.,  August  10  to  13, 
contains  a  hearty  welcome  to  florists  of 
the  Dominion  and  the  United  States  to 
the  meeting.  From  the  preparations 
made,  this  year's  convention  should 
stand  out  above  those  of  previous 
years,  in  point  of  activity,  both  busi- 
ness and  pleasure,  and  in  attendance. 
The  Eoyal  Connaught  hotel  is  to  be 
headquarters  of  the  association.  The 
arrangements  made  by  the  local  florists 
have  been  reported  previously  in  these 

columns.

The  President  Calls. 

The  twenty-third  convention  of  the 
Canadian  Horticultural  Association  will 
be  held  August  10  to  13  in  the  beautiful 
city  of  Hamilton,  Ont.,  an  ideal  spot 
for  a  summer's  outing.  This  convention 
promises  to  be  the  largest  and  most 
important  of  its  kind  ever  held  in 
Canada. 

The  officers  and  committees  have  been 
working  diligently  all  the  year  in  the 
reconstruction  of  the  organization,  and 
I,  as  president,  appeal  to  all  interested 
in  the  profession  to  show  your  apprecia- 
tion by  making  the  attendance  a  record- 
breaking  one.  Make  up  your  mind  to 
be  with  us.  You  will  be  well  repaid, 
as  the  sessions  will  be  particularly  in- 
teresting and,  in  meeting  and  exchang- 
ing ideas  with  so  many  of  your  fellow 
craftsmen,  you  are  sure  to  learn  some- 
thing which  will  help  you  in  solving  the 
problems  of  the  future. 

The  trade  exhibit  bids  fair  to  be  well 
worth  the  trip,  as  ^every  available  inch 
of  space  has  been  taken  in  the  large 
hall  provided  by  our  Hamilton  friends, 
who  are  putting  forth  every  effort  to 
give  the  visitors  a  royal  time. 

Some  of  our  American  brothers, 
leaders  in  the  trade,  and  also  several 
of  our  cabinet  ministers,  have  written, 
saying  that  they  hope  to  be  with  us. 

We  need  closer  cooperation;  it  will 
be  beneficial  to  all. 

Come,  and  do  not  forget  to  bring  the 
ladies  with  you,  as  the  reception  com- 
mittee is  making  special  preparations  for 
their  entertainment  this  year. 

On  behalf  of  the  association  I  invite 
you  to  join  us  in  making  the  1920  con- 
vention the  biggest  and  best  yet. 

Emery  B.  Hamilton,  Pres.

CONVENTION    AT    FOBT    WORTH. 


Attracts  Oood  Attendance. 

From  all  over  the  Lone  Star  state  and 
from  other  parts  of  the  south  as  well, 
llorists  gathered  at  Fort  Worth  this 
week  for  the  sixth  annual  meeting  of 
the  Texas  State  Florists'  Association. 
The  excellent  business  of  the  last 
reason,  accompanied  by  much  hard  work 
;is  well  as  good  profits,  made  members 
of  the  trade  ready  for  a  vacation,  par- 
ticularly when  they  could  combine  with 
it  the  opportunity  to  discuss  the  prob- 
lems of  the  coming  year  with  their  fel- 
low craftsmen.  So  an  attendance  was 
on  hand  July  20  for  the  opening  ses- 
sion that  well  rewarded  the  preparations 
of  the  Fort  Worth  florists  and  made 
their  efforts  quite  worth  while, 
thorough-going  and  comprehensive  as 
Ihey  were. 

Since  the  local  trade  organized  the 
Fort  Worth  Florists '  Club  three  months 
ago,  with  arrangements  for  this  con- 
vention its  especial  object,  all  have  been 
working  hard  for  the  meeting's  success. 
Tlie  able  oflBicers  of  the  club  received 
special  commendation  for  their  energy 
and  the  results  they  have  obtained. 
These  are:  President,  Vernon  J. 
Davis,  of  the  Greenwood  Floral  Co.; 
vice-president,  Leo  Bales,  of  the  Drumm 
Seed  &  Floral  Co.;  secretary  and  treas- 
urer, Elmer  Eastwood,  of  the  Baker 
Bros.  Floral  Co. 

Opening  Day. 

The  convention  was  held  in  the 
auditorium  of  the  Chamber  of  Com- 
merce, which  is  a  spacious  hall.  Around 
three  sides  of  it  runs  a  balcony,  under- 
neath which  the  exhibits  were  staged. 
The  center  of  the  room  was  reserved 
for  the  meetings.  The  decorations  were 
exceedingly  good. 

The  program  for  the  opening  session 
was  in  the  nature  of  the*  usual  routine, 
calculated  to  give  everybody  time  to  get 
his  bearings  before  discussions  started. 
Vernon  J.  Davis,  vice-president  of  the 
Texas  State  Florists'  Association  and 
president  of  the  local  club,  called  the 
meeting  to  order  Tuesday  afternoon, 
July  20.  After  the  invocation  and  the 
mayor's  address  of  welcome,  responded 
to  by  Karl  P.  Baum,  of  Knoxville,  Tenn., 
n.  O.  Hannah,  of  Sherman,  delivered 
his  address  as  president  of  the  organi- 
zation. 

President's  Address. 

After  commending  the  hospitality  of 
the  Fort  Worth  florists  and  remarking 
(in  the  prosperity  of  the  season  just 
past,  President  Hannah  said: 

"Is  there  a  florist  here  but  what  feels 
flattered  over  his  sales  and  profits  dur- 
ing the  last  year,  even  if  they  have 
been  won  by  hard  work  and  long  hours? 
Yet  in  the  midst  of  our  prosperity,  how 
many  of  us  have  considered  the  many 
causes  of  this  success?  Was  it  due  to 
our  effort  alone,  or  was  it  not  due  much 
fo  the  assistance  and  efforts  of  our 
')rother  florists?  For  we  are  much  de- 
pendent upon  each  other.  For  much  of 
"ur  cut  flowers  and  finished  ornamental 
plants   we   depend   upon   our   northern 


and  western  growers.  The  past  is  gone; 
we  only  have  its  experience.  The  vital 
question  is:  How  shall  we  profit  by 
the  past  and  how  can  we  improve  the 
coming  year?  I  have  a  few  suggestions 
to  offer,  that  are  every  florist's  duty  to 
himself.  These  suggestions  are  made  in 
the  most  friendly  way,  a  real  heart-to- 
heart  talk. 

"It  is  every  florist's  first  duty  to  be 
an  active  member  of  the  Society  of 
American  Florists.  Until  you  get 
hitched  up  and  lend  a  helping  hand  to 
the  S.  A.  F.  you  are  only  half  a  florist. 
This  is  your  honorable  duty,  as  every- 
one must  admit  when  he  considers 
for  a  moment  what  the  S.  A.  F.  is  con- 
tinually doing  for  him.  I  say  this, 
having  seen  the  enthusiasm  at  the  so- 
ciety's annual  meetings. 

Only  Fair  Return. 

"We  each  know  the  great  benefit  we 
derive  from  the  society's  work.  If  I 
had  assisted  you  in  doubling  your  sales, 
would  you  not  be  ungrateful  if  you  did 
not  assist  me  in  doubling  them  again? 
Consider  the  important  work  of  the 
society  in  legislation  alone,  how  during 
the  war  it  kept  thousands  of  feet  of 
glass  from  freezing,  how  in  regard  to 
our  plant  and  bulb  importation  it  is 
continually  on  the  job.  Think  of  the 
hail  insurance  of  a  branch  of  the  S.  A. 


F.,  covering  50,000,000  square  feet  of 
glass;  I  need  it,  having  collected  about 
$1,500  in  the  last  four  years.  Take  the 
publicity  campaign;  what  have  you 
done  to  advertise  your  business  in  such 
magazines  as  the  Ladies '  Home  Journal, 
Harper's  Weekly,  the  Literary  Digest 
and  a  multitude  of  others  just  as  good, 
read  by  thousands;  yea,  millions?  The 
S.  A.  F.  has  advertised  your  business  by 
that  famous  slogan,  "Say  It  with 
Flowers,"  until  it  has  become  a  house- 
hold word  and  everybody  buys  flowers. 
May  I  ask  how  much  you  have  donated 
to  the  publicity  fund?  If  nothing,  do 
it  at  once.  Let's  make  Texas  100  per 
cent  strong  in  its  support. 

Support  Your  Trade. 

"The  same  as  to  the  F.  T.  D.  Are  you 
a  member?  If  not,  why  not?  You  are 
the  loser.  There  are  florists  here  whose 
F.  T.  D.  business  has  more  than  doubled 
in  the  last  year.  It  will  put  dollars 
in  your  cash  box. 

"Then  think  of  all  the  societies 
affiliated  with  the  S.  A.  F. — the  Ameri- 
can Eose  Society,  the  American  Carna- 
tion Society,  the  American  Sweet  Pea 
Society  and  many  others.  Who  has 
bought  Eussell,  or  Columbia,  or  Premier 
in  the  last  year  and  has  not  thought 
what  an  improvement  over  the  old 
Bridesmaid?  Perhaps  the  vision,  the  in-

The  Florists^  Review

spiration  and  the  zeal  to  greater  and 
better  things  came  from  the  enthusiastic 
work  of  the  S.  A.  F.  So  get  in  line  and 
do  it  today. 

"Think  over  last  year's  work  and 
wherein  you  were  short,  in  flowers  or 
plants.  Grow  more  and  carry  better 
stock.  People  will  buy  flowers.  Brother 
florists,  just  a  word,  and  I  want  to  tell 
it  to  you  gently:  Do  not  make  haste 
to  get  rich.  Do  not  get  prices  too  high. 
Do  not  get  in  the  class  of  profiteers. 
Keep  safely  on  the  side  of  public 
opinion,  which  you  cannot  overcome." 

President  Hannah's  remarks  were 
followed  by  the  report  of  the  secretary- 
treasurer,  L.  J.  Tackett,  and  the  ap- 
pointment of  committees. 

Entertainment  Features. 

In  the  evening  the  center  of  the  floor 
of  the  auditorium  was  cleared  for  the 
president's  reception,  which  included 
several  special  entertainment  features 
and  closed  with  an  informal  dance.  The 
music  provided  by  the  local  florists  was 
particularly  commended.  The  Ameri- 
can Greenhouse  Mfg.  Co.,  of  Chicago, 
showed  its  film  picture,  "Wonderland 
under  Glass." 

On  the  evening  of  the  second  day  was 
planned  a  visit  to  the  range  of  the 
Greenwood  Floral  Co.,  near  the  city. 

For  the  close  of  the  meeting  was 
arranged  a  basket  picnic  at  Lake  Worth, 
a  beautiful  spot  about  nine  miles  from 


the  city,  constructed  by  the  local  park 
department  as  part  of  its  park  system. 

The  Addresses. 

The  morning  and  afternoon  sessions 
of  July  21  and  22  were  devoted  to  some 
excellent  addresses  and  to  the  transac- 
tion of  the  business  of  the  association.

SOUTHERN    FLOWERS 


WHAT  TEXANS  CAN  GROW. 


Opportunities  Are  Many. 

Why  the  subject  of  a  wholesale  grow- 
ers' association  should  have  been  as- 
signed to  me  I  have  often  wondered. 
It  is  quite  true  that  I  have  been  en- 
gaged in  growing  for  twenty-three 
years  and  believe  in  southern  florists 
growing    all,    or    at    least    the    greater 

fart,  of  their  flowers  and  plants.  Still, 
have  always  avoided  the  small  or 
large  dealer  when  he  approached  me  on 
the  subject  of  selling  at  wholesale.  The 
fact  is,  no  matter  how  much  glass  we 
built,  frames  we  made  and  acres  we 
planted,  we  have  not  been  able  to  keep 
up  with  the  increased  demand  in  our 
retail  trade. 

There  is  no  wholesale  growers'  asso- 
ciation in  Texas,  but  there  ought  to  be. 
There  is  a  demand  for  everything  a 
man  can  grow.  Take  the  various 
classes:  Eoses  can  be  grown  in  Texas 
with  good  results  the  year  around;  still, 
not  one-tenth  of  the  demand  can  be  had 
from  growers  in  Texas,  nor  is  there  any 
chance  with  the  present  area  of  glass. 
Carnations  are  not  an  all-year  plant, 
but  for  at  least  six  months  in  the  year 
good  stock  can  be  cut  and  with  proper 
care  two  more  months  can  be  added. 
Still  we  buy  carnations  by  the  hun- 
dreds of  thousands  during  the  winter 
months.  Chrysanthemums  are  success- 
ful, but  we  buy  them  from  California, 
Chicago  and  Denver.  Asters  can  be 
grown  with  good  results,  but  few  grow

them.  Violets  are  shipped  in  from  San 
Francisco  and  Hudson  river  districts; 
our  own  violets,  with  far  better  color 
and  fragrance,  grow  without  attention; 
millions  of  blooms  grow  and  die  by  the 
wayside  in  the  spring.  Sweet  peas  are 
hard  to  ship,  yet  easily  grown,  both 
under  glass  and  outdoors.  Do  you  know 
that  $100,000  is  spent  for  this  flower 
alone  in  Texas?  Have  you  ever  seen  a 
surplus  in  the  winter  time!  Have  you 
not  had  to  pay  a  fancy  price  for  them 
and  then  could  not  get  nearly  the  num- 
ber you  wanted! 

Have  we  a  wholesale  grower?  I  say 
no,  but  we  need  many.  Gentlemen,  will 
you  grasp  the  opportunity?  Lend  your 
cooperation  to  the  florist  who  will  grow 
for  the  wholesale  market. 

Great  Possibilities. 

Now,  let's  talk  about  something  that 
everybody  and  anybody  can  grow,  but 
what  do  we  Texans  do?  We  will  order 
from  New  York,  Chicago  and  Philadel- 
phia— the  canna!  Why,  a  fellow  could 
sell  a  million  in  New  York,  so  easily 
jifrown  down  here  in  the  south,  but  pray 
who  grows  or  sells  them  wholesale?  Do 
we  need  wholesale  growers?  I  say  we 
do. 

The  Shasta  family  of  daisies  can  be 
grown.  So  can  the  Mexican  tuberose; 
the  bulbs  could  be  shipped  all  over  the 
United  States  and  Canada.  This  spring 
we  wanted  2,000  tuberoses.  I  could  not 
find  them.  A  florist  in  the  rural  district 
of  Dallas  advertised  some  in  The  Re- 
view, and  when  I  saw  the  advertise- 
ment he  had  sold  them  to  a  concern  in 
Canada.  Is  there  a  wholesale  growers' 
association  or  should  there  be  one?  I 
say  there  should. 


Last  year  we  planted  a  small  space, 
about  200x200  feet,  which  had  been 
used  as  a  heeling  ground  for  nursery 
stock  and  which  was  not  cleared  until 
too  late  to  plant  anything  else,  to  se- 
lected separate  colors  of  giant  zinnias. 
To  our  surprise  and  the  delight  of 
thousands  of  passers-by,  who  admired 
the  wonderful  color  and  size,  we 
sold  over  $3,000  worth  before  frost. 
We  have  the  same  this  year  and 
to  date  have  almost  sold  $1,000  worth 
and  will  surpass  last  year's  record.  We 
believe  in  growing  stock  and  will  in- 
crease our  houses  by  two  this  year  and 
our  frames  by  many,  and  while  we  cov- 
ered one  block  with  lath  for  shade,  we 
will  add  much  more  next  year. 

Profits  Awaiting  Many. 

The  wholesale  growers'  association 
should  be  a  reality.  We  buy  our  Boston 
ferns,  adiantum.  Asparagus  Sprengeri 
and  plumosus,  both  plants  and  cut,  from 
1,000  to  2,000  miles  away.  Whyt  The 
growers  of  the  south  have  not  awakened 
to  the  possibilities  and  profits  in  the 
growing  line. 

Think  of  the  hundreds  of  thousands 
of  vegetable  plants  and  sweet  potato 
slips  being  shipped  into  Texas  every 
season.  Why,  I  could  pay  a  man's 
salary  for  the  entire  year  and  get  a 
good  investment  out  of  a  few  frames 
and  houses  with  only  three  months' 
work.  Now,  growers,  get  busy;  don't 
sleep  on  your  rights.  The  opportunity 
for  big  men  and  little  men,  big  money 
and  little  money,  is  here;  will  you  grasp 
it,  or  let  it  go  by? 

I  have  not  mentioned  the  poinsettia, 
which  grows  like  a  weed  and  brings  big 
returns  at  Christmas.  Do  we  grow 
what  we  need?    Not  by  a  long  ways! 

Cyclamens  and  begonias  can  be  grown 
here.  How  many  bother  with  such 
stock?  Bedding  stock  could  make  a 
fellow  rich  alone,  but  what  do  we  do? 
Grow  a  few  and  buy  the  rest. 

Consider  bulbous  stock.  Think  of 
buying  bulbs  and  planting  them  at  in- 
tervals of  a  few  weeks  or  bedding  them 
outside  and  bringing  them  in  as  wanted. 
Any  man  or  woman  can  grow  them  and 
they  sell  themselves,  yet  do  one-fourth 
of  you  present  here  buy  what  you  need 
or  could  sell?  I  say,  no.  As  an  im- 
porter and  a  large  buyer  of  bulbs,  I  can 
speak  for  more  than  you  can  imagine, 
as  we  have  calls  later  in  the  season  from 
the  Rio  Grande  up  into  Oklahoma,  from 
Arizona  to  Mississippi.  If  you  are 
afraid  to  handle  or  put  out  a  few  dol- 
lars, don't  blame  anyone  else  if  at  the 
end  of  the  year  you  have  not  had  your 
share.  Valley  and  giganteums  can  bo 
bought  from  cold  storage  every  day  in 
the  year  and  easily  grown;  yet  how 
many  florists  in  Texas  plant  this  stock? 
You  can  count  them  all  on  the  fingers 
of  one  hand  and  still  have  some  fingers 
left. 

We  have  a  wonderful  slogan,  "Say 
It  with  Flowers,"  yet  do  we  have  flow- 
ers when  the  customer  asks  for  them? 
Not  often. 

Middleton,  Mass. — Clarence  Osgood  is 
bnildiag  a  greenhouse. 

Vincennes,  Ind. — In  spite  of  the  fact 
that  he  could  not,  this  season,  secure 
help  enough  to  cut,  bunch  and  ship  the 
entire  crop  of  his  twenty-one  acres  of 
peonies,  W.  A.  Reiman  plans  to  plant 
five  more  acres  this  autumn.  He  expects 
to  see  a  never  ending  demand  for  flow- 
ers for  Memorial  day,  but  not  a  per- 
petual labor  scarcity.

THE  ci;eveland  convention. 


Travel  Arrangements. 

It  was  expected  that,  with  the  turn- 
ing back  of  the  railroads  to  their  re- 
spective managements,  we  should  be 
able  to  enjoy  the  privilege  of  traveling 
to  Cleveland  at  the  rate  of  one  fare 
;ind  one-third  for  the  round  trip,  aa  we 
('id  in  pre-war  days.  Our  society  made 
tlic  necessary  request  for  this  privilege, 
but  it  was  denied,  for  the  reason  that 
tlio  reduced  rate  now  is  available  only 
ti)  organizations  which  are  in  character 
educational  or  philanthropic.  It  does 
iKit  seem  likely  that  business  organiza- 
li(ins  will,  at  least  in  the  near  future, 
ciijoy  concessions  in  railroad  rates  when 
jdiirneying  to  their  conventions. 

Well,  who  should  worry?  The  rates 
lo  Cleveland  are  not  such  as  to  keep 
any  florist  at  home  who  has  his  busi- 
ness at  heart.  Anyone  attending  the 
convention  who  keeps  his  eyes  and  ears 
open  will  not  give  much  thought  to  his 
railroad  expenses;  he  will  be  glad  he 
paid  them  and  let  it  go  at  that.  Both 
railroad  and  hotel  rates  are  reasonable 
as  we  must  look  at  things  today,  and 
the  little  change  of  surroundings  for  a 
few  days  is  worth  really  more  than  we 
have  to  pay  for  it. 

Bowling  Tournament. 

The  Cleveland  florists  have  all  ar- 
rangements for  our  gathering  well  in 
hand,  and  every  possible  comfort  awaits 
us,  as  well  as  a  most  hearty  welcome. 
Members  who  are  interested  in  bowling, 
and  have  in  mind  the  splendid  contests 
of  past  conventions,  will  be  pleased  to 
know  that  Cleveland  florists  have  a  fine 
tournament  on  their  program  of  enter- 
tainment, and  the  evening  of  the  third 
day  of  the  convention,  Thursday, 
August  19,  is  selected  for  it.  So  get 
down  to  your  practice,  all  ye  bowlers; 
you  will  need  all  your  skill  at  Cleve- 
land. 

Don't  forget  your  hotel  reservations. 
Notify  James  McLaughlin,  421  High 
avenue,  Cleveland,  of  your  require- 
ments; he  is  chairman  of  the  committee 
on  hotels  and  will  take  care  of  your 
reservations.  There  are  five  big  hotels 
in  close  proximity  to  the  convention 
liall,  and  we  should  have  no  difficulty 
ns  far  as  comfortable  housing  is  con- 
•  erned — but  get  your  reservations  in 
early.  A.  L.   Miller,  President. 


NEW  YORK  TO  CLEVELAND. 

The  transportation  committee  of  the 
^'ew  York  Florists'  Club  has  mailed  to 
'iierabers  of  the  club  and  members  of 
f^ie  allied  trades  in  New  York  and  im- 
'iiediate  vicinity  a  booklet  urging  them 
to  attend  the  S.  A.  F.  convention  at 
'  ^eveland,  O.,  August  17  to  19,  and  set- 
'ing  forth  in  it  how  the  New  York  party 
^ill  travel. 

The  booklet  contains  an  article  by 
^ 'orctary  John  Young  urging  the  flo- 
■— ts  to  join  their  brethren  at  the  con- 
'ntion;  a  program  which,  it  is  said, 
'^  ill  put  joy  in  your  business  and  green- 
'  ii^eks  in   your  jeans;   the  itinerary  of 


the  trip;  the  cost  of  meals  on  the  way, 
and  what  trains  to  go  home  on. 

The  itinerary  is  given  as  follows: 
the  route  through  which  this  railroad 
passes  is  noted  for  its  wonderful  scenery, 
particularly  the  Pocono  mountains; 
thence  through  Scranton,  the  heart  of 
the  anthracite  coal  mining  region. 
Binghamton  will  be  reached  about  2 
p.  m.,  and  from  Binghamton  west  the 
route  is  along  the  Susquehanna  and 
Chemung  rivers  and  through  the  Gen- 
esee valley.  The  party  will  leave  New 
York  on  eastern  standard  time,  which 
is  one  hour  earlier  than  daylight  saving

on  the  way. 

Reservations  are  to  be  sent  to  the 
secretary    of    the    transportation    com- 


mittee,   C.    Lowther,    Box    100,    Times 
Square  station.  New  York  city. 


NATIONAL  PUBLICITY  CAMPAIGN. 


Will  Be  Needed  Later. 

Referring  to  the  rather  apathetic 
spirit  shown  toward  the  campaign  by  a 
rather  large  number  of  florists  through- 
out the  country,  Joseph  Kohout,  of  Lib- 
ertyville.  111.,  expresses  his  sympathy 
with  the  publicity  committee  on  account 
of  the  slow  response  of  the  craft  to 
appeals  for  just  contributions  to  the 
campaign  fund  as  follows:  "They  have 
my  sympathy  and  admiration  at  the 
same  time  for  sticking  to  such  a  thank- 
less job,  but,  for  goodness'  sake,  don't 
give  up  the  ship;  we  shall  all  need  that 
publicity  in  the  very  near  future." 

Mr.  Kohout  is  right.  We  shall  most 
certainly  need  all  the  publicity  we  can 
get  in  the  near  future.  We  need  it 
now.  We  need  it  to  keep  in  effect  the 
great  benefit  we  have  derived  from  our 
work  of  the  last  two  years  and  more. 
The  result  we  have  accomplished  can- 
not stand  for  permanence  unless  kept 
continually  freshened  by  further  effort. 
We  all  of  us  have  surely  in  mind  a  few 
of  the  great  advertising  campaigns  in 
recent  years,  which,  with  the  commodi- 
ties advertised,  are  now  mere  memories. 
Their  great  results  petered  out  because, 
having  been  obtained,  it  was  thought 
they  would  stand  unsupported. 

Self-Protection. 

Were  we  to  cease  our  efforts  to  keep 
' '  Say  It  with  Flowers ' '  before  the  pub- 
lic, the  slogan  would  quickly  be  for- 
gotten. We  should  be  unjust  to  our- 
selves if  such  a  thing  should  happen. 
The  impression  we  have  made  already 
is  worth  considerably  more  than  a  few 
paltry  dollars  to  every  florist  in  the 
land.  A  florist  cheerfully  pays  his  in- 
surance bills  to  protect  himself  against 
losses  by  fire  or  other  destructive  agent, 
and  when  he  contributes  to  our  cam- 
paign fund  he  should  feel  that  he  is 
protecting  his  business  against  dry  rot 
—which  he  really  is,  with  the  coopera- 
tion of  the  best  of  his  brother  florists. 

Our  committee  will  meet  in  Cleveland 
next  month,  during  the  convention  of 
our  society,  and  a  session  of  the  conven- 
tion will  be  set  apart  mainly  for  the 
discussion  of  matters  in  connection  with 
the  campaign.  Is  your  name  on  the  list 
of  contributors  to  be  presented  at  that 
meeting?  If  not,  don't  you  think  it 
ought  to  be?  Why  not  help  make  the 
"thankless  job"  Mr.  Kohout  refers  to, 
one  of  pleasure?  The  committee  does 
not  mind  the  work  or  the  responsibility 
of  the  campaign,  but  appreciation  of 
their  labors  shown  by  a  better  response 
to  their  appeals  for  funds  would  be 
sweet  indeed  to  them.  It  is  not  be- 
lieved that  a  cooperative  publicity  cam- 
paign for  any  product  was  ever  pro- 
moted and  carried  on  at  an  expense  so 
small  for  the  wonderful  results  ob- 
tained as  our  campaign  for  publicity 
for  flowers.  Many  leading  experts  in 
publicity  are  frank  enough  to  tell  us 
this  and  to  refer  to  it  in  public  print. 
With  further  funds,  we  can  obtain  the

maximum  of  our  desires,  and  it  is  up 
to  the  trade  to  determine  whether  we 
shall  reach  this  point  or  not.  The  only 
obstacle  in  the  way  is  insufficiency  of 
funds,  and  this  is  easily  removed 
through  a  better  support  of  our  move- 
ment. John  Young,  Secretary. 


MUM  SHOW  AT  WASHINGTON,  D.  C. 


To  Be  Held  November  10  to  14. 

Wednesday,  July  14,  an  important 
meeting  of  the  Washington  Florists' 
Club  was  called  for  the  purpose  of  con- 
sidering the  advisability  of  holding  a 
chrysanthemum  show  in  connection  with 
the  annual  convention  of  the  Chrysan- 
themum Society  of  America,  to  be  held 
November  10  to  14.  The  meeting  was 
well  attended  and.  much  interest  was 
shown. 

It  was  finally  voted  to  hold  a  show 
and  the  following  were  named  as  the 
executive  committee:  Chairman,  F.  H. 
Kramer;  vice-chairman,  Z.  D.  Blacki- 
stone;  secretary,  G.  V.  Schultz;  treas- 
urer, A.  E.  Gude;  superintendent  of 
exhibition,  O.  A.  C.  Oehmler;  chairman 
of  hospitality  committee,  William  F. 
Gude;  chairman  of  program  committee, 
J.  Harper  Heatherington;  chairman  of 
committee  on  entries,  judges  and 
awards,  A.  E.  Gude;  chairman  of  enter- 
tainment committee,  George  C.  Shaffer, 
and  chairman  of  committee  on  private 
gardeners,  G.  M.  Anderson. 

The  prize  list  will  be  extensive  and 
will  be  somewhat  larger  than  the  one 
offered  at  the  New  York  show  last  year. 
The  officers  have  been  busy  and  all  are 
enthusiastic.  They  say  that  they  are 
going  to  give  Washington  and  the  rest 
of  the  people  in  the  country,  who  will 
take  the  opportunity  to  come  here,  a 
show  that  is  out  of  the  ordinary.  They 
advise  that  you  keep  your  program  open 
for  these  dates  and  you  will  be  well 
repaid  for  the  trip.  Entry  lists  will  be 
mailed  upon  request. 

F.   H.   Kramer, 
Chairman  Executive  Committee. 


BEWARE   UNBINOWN   FIRMS. 


Offers  Not  Always  Bargains. 

The  importance  of  dealing  only  with 
houses  of  recognized  standing  except 
where  it  is  possible  to  ascertain  their 
reputation  before  remitting  is  em- 
phasized for  florists'  benefit  by  the  re- 
sults of  the  investigation  of  a  Philadel- 
phia firm.  The  case,  as  it  has  so  far 
developed,  is  best  described  by  the  fol- 
lowing statement  of  the  M.  Rice  Co.: 

"A  circular  letter  was  mailed  to  a 
large  number  of  florists  early  in  June 
by  the  T.  Franklin  Co.,  purporting  to 
be  manufacturers  and  importers  of 
millinery,  with  offices,  according  to  their 
letterhead,  in  London  and  Paris,  and 
main  ^ftdquarters  in  the  Berger  build- 
ing, ffiladelphia.  They  stated  that 
through  a  delay  in  delivery  of  imported 
chiffon,  which  they  had  intended  using 
for  millinery  purposes,  they  were  over- 
stocked and,  to  close  out  quick,  would 
sell  6-inch  chiffon  bands  in  500-yard 
lots  or  more  at  7  cents  per  yard  (which 
is  about  half  of  today's  market  price), 
net  cash  with  order. 

"One  of  our  out-of-town  customers 
asked  us  to  investigate,  having  failed 
to  receive  the  goods  or  any  answer  to 
a  follow-up  inquiry,  though  he  had  an 
acknowledgment  of   the   order,   stating 


it  had  been  shipped.  This  request  wo 
complied  with  and  our  investigation  de- 
veloped the  following  facts: 

Results  of  Investigation. 

"The  account  at  the  bank  through 
which  our  customer's  check  was  cashed 
was  opened  June  2,  a  week  or  so  before 
the  circular  letter  was  mailed.  The 
telephone  numbers  given  on  the  letter- 
head were  numbers  of  concerns  in  dif- 
ferent lines  of  business,  which  know 
nothing  of  the  T.  Franklin  Co.  The 
Berger  building,  the  company's  sup- 
posed business  location,  at  Seventh  and 
Spring  Garden  streets,  is  a  dwelling 
house  with  a  first-floor  store  occupied 
by  Berger  &  Co.,  real  estate  agents. 
Upon  inquiry  there,  we  learned  that  the 
T.  Franklin  Co.  had  rented  desk  space 
in  this  office  a  short  time  before,  but 
had  not  been  seen  or  heard  of  for  the 
past  week,  during  which  time  much 
mail  Iiad  accumulated  and  was  uncalled 
for. 

"We  immediately  turned  this  infor- 
mation over  to  the  postal  inspectors 
for  their  further  investigation,  in  the 
hope  that  these  parties  could  be  located 
and  delivery  of  the  accumulated  mail 
stopped.  We  are  now  awaiting  the  re- 
sult of  their  examination. 

"Our  customer  informed  us  that  a 
good  many  florists  in  the  south  had 
mailed  checks,  but  no  goods  had  been 
received.  From  these  facts,  we  feel 
there  is  but  slight  chance  of  their  ever 
getting  anything  but  experience  for 
their  money."

The  Market. 

Not  much  stock  has  accumulated  on 
this  market,  flowers  of  all  kinds  being 
scarce.  A  few  roses  of  good  quality  are 
arriving.  Few  carnations,  just  strag- 
glers, are  arriving.  Some  fair  garden 
stock  is  coming  in.  Easter  lilies  are 
plentiful  at  the  present  time  and  are 
selling  at  reasonable  prices.  Some  hy- 
drangeas, achillea,  bachelor's  buttons, 
gaillardia  and  coreopsis  are  arriving 
regularly.  Gladioli  are  a  little  more 
plentiful.  The  first  asters  and  dahlias 
have  made  their  appearance  and  are 
moving  well.

An  oversupply  has  made  itself  evi- 
dent for  the  first  time  in  many  months. 
Usually  it  lasts  for  only  a  few  days 
and,  with  one  or  two  exceptions,  prices 
make  no  serious  decline.  During  the 
last  two  weeks  prices  have  been  weak 
and,  especially  during  the  last  week,  it 
seemed  as  though  old  times  were  back 
again — the  times  when  spring  and  sum- 
mer stock  brought  barely  enough  to 
pay  for  the  gathering.  The  explanation 
offered  for  these  conditions  has  been 
that  all  gardens  are  in  bloom,  as  we 
have  had  ideal  weather  for  outdoor 
growth. 

Various  Notes. 

John  Kramer  expects  to  take  a  two 
weeks'  vacation  in  the  hills  of  Canada, 
leaving  this  week.

COLUMBUS,    O. 


The  Market. 

Trade  has  been  brisk.  Owing  to  the 
large  amount  of  business,  flowers  have 
become  scarce.  Sweet  peas  and  carna- 
tions are  about  gone.  Roses,  daisies, 
etc.,  are  used  as  substitutes.  All  varie- 
ties of  flowers  are  being  used  in  funeral 
work,  while  an  unusual  number  of  din- 
ner parties  and  social  events  help  to 
use  up  the  bright-colored  garden  flowers. 

Various  Notes. 

Many  florists  are  making  a  special 
$1  box  of  assorted  flowers  for  Satur- 
days. 

A  large  picture  of  Governor  Cox,  of 
Ohio,  holding  a  huge  basket  of  Ameri- 
can Beauty  roses,  in  the  Columbus  Citi- 
zen and  the  Cincinnati  Enquirer,  was 
a  good  advertisement  for  the  trade. 
Above  the  picture  was  the  slogan,  "Say 
It  with  Flowery."  John  Clark,  of  the 
Munk  Floral  Co.,  designed  the  basket 
and  deserves  credit  for  the  wonderful 
advertising  it  brought  the  trade. 

Rolf  Zetlitz  visited  Columbus  last 
week,  inspecting  hfs  greenhouses  and 
calling  on  members  of  the  trade.

DAYTON,  O. 


The  Market. 

The  usual  summer  lull  is  prevailing 
and  the  florists  are  glad  to  get  a  rest. 
The  weather  has  been  wet  for  the  last 
month  and  it  has  been  difficult  to  obtain 
suitable  soil  to  fill  benches,  but  chrysan- 
themums are  about  all  planted  now. 
Outdoor  gladioli  are  now  plentiful,  Hal- 
ley  and  Chicago  White  predominating. 

Club  Meeting. 

The  Dayton  Florists'  Club  held  its 
regular  meeting  Tuesday,  July  13,  with

the  largest  attendance  it  has  had  in  the 
last  few  years.  Twelve  new  members 
were  admitted. 

The  main  topic  before  the  meeting 
was  Sunday  closing.  Some  florists  close 
all  day  Sunday,  some  close  Sunday  dur- 
ing July  and  August  and  others  do  not 
close  at  all.  Members  of  the  club  who 
close  Sunday  are:  Heiss  Co.,  G.  J.  Hor- 
]acher,  Abby  Avenue  Greenhouses, 
Schmidt  &  Son  and  C.  F.  Mahan. 

A  committee  waa  appointed  to  ar- 
range for  a  picnic  to  be  held  early  in 
August.

PITTSBUBOH,  PA. 


The  Market. 

Pittsburgh  would  be  an  ideal  place 
for  anyone  to  spend  a  vacation  as  far 
as  weather  is  concerned.  We  have  had 
no  hot  weather  as  yet  this  summer.  As 
a  result,  flowers  of  all  kinds  have  been 
better  than  the  usual  summer  stock. 

There  are  still  some  good  carnations 
on  the  market  and  there  never  were 
better  roses  for  this  time  of  the  year. 
Large  quantities  of  gladioli  and  lilies 
make  up  most  of  the  stock,  but  some 
sweet  peas,  zinnias,  calendulas  and 
other  outdoor  stock  help  to  make  va- 
riety. 

June  closed  a  wonderful  six  months' 
business  and  if  July  continues  as  it  has 
started,  it  will  be  a  record-breaker. 
Everything  is  cleaning  up  every  day 
and  the  wholesale  men  are  not  worried, 
as  the  garbage  man  is  not  getting  his 
usual  summer  loads. 

The  supply  business  is  particularly 
active  for  summer.  Judging  by  this, 
the  trade  generally  is  preparing  for  a 
good  season  next  fall. 

Various  Notes. 

Benjamin  Elliott  sent  his  wife  and 
daughter  to  Cottage  Grove,  Ore.,  to  visit 
Mrs.  Elliott's  father,  John  Bader.  He 
was  to  follow  about  the  middle  of 
August,  but  he  got  lonesome  and  left 
Sunday,  July  18,  to  see  the  folks. 

James  McCarthy,  of  the  Pittsburgh 
Cut  Flower  Co.,  has  returned  from  At-

place,  but  expensive. 

Sam  Gidas,  of  the  Oakland  Flower 
Shop,  has  been  spending  a  few  weeks 
in  Ohio,  at  Dayton  and  Akron.  He  ex- 
pects to  go  to  Atlantic  City  for  the  rest 
of  his  vacation. 

A  letter  from  Los  Angeles  states  that 
Fred  Burki  is  convalescing  and  hopes 
soon  to  be  restored  to  health,  when  he 
will  pay  Pittsburgh  a  visit.  The  Pitts- 
burgh Cut  Flower  Co.  is  making  some 
improvements  and  he  wants  to  see  what 
it  is  doing.  W.  A.  Clarke  has  returned 
to  his  post  after  a  trip  to  Portland, 
Ore.,  to  the  Shriners'  convention  and  is 
loud  in  his  praise  for  the  Portland  peo- 
ple as  entertainers.  He  said  that  the 
flower  fete  there  was  beyond  the  con- 
ception of  anyone  who  had  not  seen  it.

hospital.  Mr.  Turner  is  increasing  the 
size  of  his  range  with  a  24xl50-foot 
Moninger  greenhouse,  to  be  used  for 
general  purposes. 

A.  W.  Smith,  Jr.,  of  the  A.  W.  Smith 
Co.,  took  his  family  to  the  seashore  last 
week  for  the  summer.  He  is  too  busy 
to  stay  away  from  Pittsburgh  long.

TOBONTO,  ONT. 


Business  has  been  good  for  this  time 
of  the  year,  many  weddings  adding  to 
the  volume  of  business.  Many  of  the 
florists  are  taking  advantage  of  the 
slack  season  to  make  many  needed  im- 
provements in  their  stores  or  to  redeco- 
rate. Others  are  taking  fishing  trips 
to  the  northern  lakes  or  are  making  the 
rounds  of  American  cities,  chiefly  New 
York,  with  a  run  to  Atlantic  City. 

The  annual  picnic  of  the  Toronto 
Eetail  Florists'  Club,  which  is  the  big 
event  of  the  year,  was  held  at  Memorial 
park,  Hanlan  's  Point,  July  14.  Although

The  advertising  in  the  Chicago  news- 
papers last  week  by  the  Allied  Florists' 
Association  was  devoted  to  what  had 
formerly  been  used  as  an  incidental  part 
of  its  copy.  The  familiar  calendar  with 
the  query,  "Whose  Birthday  Comes  in 
Julyf "  was  used  to  call  to  the  public's 
notice  the  florists'  telegraph  delivery 
service.  So  important  and  fertile  a 
branch  of  the  trade's  activity  is  this, 
in  the  minds  of  the  directors  of  the 
Chicago  campaign,  that  it  merits  the 
use  of  funds  contributed,  not  by  re- 
tailers alone,  but  also  by  growers  and

300  present  and  second  tables  had  to  be 
set  at  the  supper.  There  was  a  long 
list  of  sports  carried  out  under  the  capa- 
ble direction  of  E.  Sanderson.  All  the 
races  were  keenly  contested.  The 
opening  baseball  game  showed  the  re- 
tailers to  be  the  masters,  but  the  grow- 
ers reversed  the  decision  in  the  tug  of 
war.  There  was  a  large  attendance  of 
growers  from  Toronto  and  florists  from 
Hamilton,  who  expressed  themselves  as 
having  greatly  enjoyed  the  picnic.

market,  is  spending  its  money  to  ad- 
vertise a  part  of  the  florists'  business 
which  will  aid  other  markets  rather 
than  its  own.  So  altruistic  have  become 
the  trade  's  local  cooperative  campaigns.

Results  bring  advertising. 
The  Eeview  brings  results. 

More  people  are  looking  for  jobs  now 
than  were  a  month  or  two  ago. 

Never  has  the  trade  ended  a  season 
in  such  good  shape  financially  as  this 
year. 

Summer  is  a  good  time  to  close  your 
store  on  Sunday — and  then  don't  open  it 
again  in  the  fall. 

Reports  indicate  a  gradual  resumption 
of  former  efficiency  by  workers,  though 
per  capita  output  is  still  far  from  normal. 

Favorable  crop  conditions,  despite  the 
poor  outlook  earlier,  brighten  the  busi- 
ness prospect  of  the  trade  in  the  middle 
west. 

Transportation  difficulties  are  hinder- 
ing production  in  the  glass  factories, 
while  the  demand  for  their  output  in- 
creases. 

Better  fuel  conditions  are  hoped  for 
as  a  result  of  the  interstate  commerce 
commission's  extending  for  thirty  days 
the  priority  order  regarding  the  distribu- 
tion of  coal  ears.  Hope  is  all  that  has 
been  stimulated  so  far. 

The  managing  director  of  the  Ameri- 
can Wholesale  Coal  Association  lifts  a 
lone  voice  to  state  his  disbelief  of  a  coal 
shortage.  He  may  possibly  be  right,  but 
the  grower  would  prefer  to  see  part  of  the 
■  nation's  adequate  supply  in  his  storage 
bins. 

A  list  of  sixteen  special  prizes  has  been 
sent  out  by  Secretary  C.  W.  Johnson  to 
be  offered  at  the  exhibition  of  the 
Chrysanthemum  Society  of  America  at 
Washington,  D.  C,  November  10  to  14. 
,  The  show,  to  be  held  in  conjunction  with 
the  Washington  Florists'  Club,  will  be 
at  the  Old  Masonic  Temple,  at  Ninth 
and  F  streets,  N.  W. 

Perhaps  nothing  speaks  more  plainly 
of  the  steady  increase  in  the  telegraph 
delivery  of  flowers  than  does  the  rapid  in- 
crease in  the  number  of  cards  in  the  Pink 
Part  of  The  Review.  There  are  several 
new  ones  each  week,  four  this  issue,  yearly 
orders,  and  they  all  came  without  direct 
Sfolicitation — because  readers  of  the  paper 
recognize  the  Pink  Part  as  a  business 
bringer.  W.  E.  Trimble,  Princeton,  111., 
wrote:  "You  may  for  a  time  omit  all 
our  ads  except  the  one  in  the  Pink  Part; 
that's  the  real  ad  and  it  must  continue 
indefinitely. ' ' 


There  has  been  a  notable  increase,  in 
recent  weeks,  in  the  number  of  eastern 
readers  who  are  using  classified  ads  in 
The  Review,  not  only  to  move  surplus 
stock  but  as  a  means  of  building  up  profit- 
able, steady  wholesale  mail-order  busi- 
ness. 

MAY  CONTINUE  EXPRESS  UNION. 

Florists  who  hoped  for  an  improve- 
ment in  express  service  when  the  pres- 
ent combination  should  be  unscrambled 
and  the  old  companies  continue  sep- 
arately see  less  chance  for  that  occa- 
sion. Approval  of  the  interstate  com- 
merce commission  was  asked  last  week 
by  the  American  Railway  Express  Co. 
of  its  continued  operation  as  a  con- 
solidation of  the  Adams  Express  Co., 
American  Express  Co.,  Wells  Fargo  & 
Co.  and  the  Southern  Express  Co. 
George  C  Taylor,  of  New  York,  presi- 
dent of  the  consolidated  organization, 
said  $31,000,000  was  needed  for  equip- 
ment and  additions''to  existing  facili- 
ties. This  sum  could  be  obtained  from 
bankers,  he  said,  if  the  consolidation 
was  continued,  but  it  would  be  difficult 
for  the  constituent  companies  to  finance 
themselves.  The  probable  action  of  the 
interstate  commerce  commission  is  not 
predicted. 


TBANSPORTATION  AND  PRICES. 

The  two  overshadowing  factors  in 
florists'  calculations  now  are  the  trend 
of  prices  and  the  transportation  conges- 
tion. Whether  growers  can  obtain  suffi- 
cient coal  for  adequate  flower  produc- 
tion depends  largely  upon  the  former. 
Upon  the  latter  rests  predictions  of  a 
successful  year  ahead  for  this  trade. 
The  two  important  business  aspects  are 
treated  in  the  latest  Dun's  Review  as 
follows : 

"Recent  betterment  of  agricultural 
prospects  has  not  failed  to  affect  busi- 
ness sentiment  favorably,  but  crop  con- 
siderations are  not  the  governing  factor 
in  the  immediate  situation,  and  the  ad- 
vance toward  midsummer  finds  the  lull 
in  commercial  activities  continuing. 
While  some  of  the  present  slowing  down 
is  seasonal  and  is  therefore  not  unex- 
pected, yet  the  compelling  reasons  for 
the  existing  quietness  still  appear  in 
price  uncertainties  and  in  railroad  draw- 
backs. The  freight  tie-up,  from  which 
adequate  relief  is  unfortunately  slow  in 
developing,  causes  inconvenience  and 
concern  to  many  interests,  and  not  only 
serves  to  prevent  some  transactions  that 
might  otherwise  be  consummated,  but 
also  tends  to  restrict  outputs  and  to 
further  inflate  some  prices.  Inability  to 
promptly  obtain  needed  supplies  of  fuel 
is  embarrassing  to  dependent  industries, 
and  the  accumulation  of  product  at 
manufacturing  plants  threatens  shut- 
downs in  various  instances,  the  piling 
up  of  materials  at  steel  works  having 
reached  burdensome  proportions. 

"Important  as  the  element  of  trans- 
portation congestion  is,  however,  the 
price  question  remains  the  overshadow- 
ing feature,  and  now  has  an  increasing- 
ly potent  influence  in  shaping  current 
and  future  business  operations.  With 
the  conviction  growing  stronger  among 
buyers  that  the  main  price  movement 
will  be  downward  until  more  normal 
levels  are  established,  hesitation  in  en- 
tering upon  forward  commitments  has 
become  practically  general,  and  consid- 
erable machinery  is  idle  in  textile  mills 
and  elsewhere  because  of  lack  of  orders. 


Not  only  are  price  declines  this  week 
again  in  the  majority,  but  openings  of 
new  lines  of  some  goods  for  advanc-r 
seasons  have  been  announced  at  appre- 
ciable reductions  in  quotations,  thus 
demonstratipg  the  changed  attitude  ol' 
sellers,  and  predictions  of  higher  prices 
to  follow  in  certain  quarters  do  not  ob- 
scure the  fact  that  many  markets  arc 
now  yielding.  Reflecting  the  price  re- 
adjustments and  the  shrinkage  in  vol- 
ume of  business,  bank  clearings  at  dif- 
ferent points  now  disclose  a  narrowinj^ 
of  the  margin  of  increase  over  last 
year's  figures,  while  the  recent  rise  i?) 
the  commercial  mortality  has  bpen  such 
as  to  compel  attention." 


COAL    MEN    BLAME     RAILROADS. 

Progress  in  obtaining  coal  for  green- 
house bins  has  been  so  small  thus  far 
in  July  that  it  may  be  called  none. 
Traffic  congestion  is  still  blamed  for  the 
shortage  of  fuel.  The  coal  men  have 
raised  their  voices  high  in  execration 
of  the  railroads,  contending  that  the 
car  supply  is  still  far  from  what  it 
should  be.  Mine  operators  have  stated 
that  enough  coal  can  be  mined  to  meet 
the  fuel  requirements  of  the  nation. 
The  car  question  is  the  sole  stumbling 
block,  they  say.  The  shortage  has  been 
estimated  at  250,000  open  top  cars.  Only 
a  small  fraction  of  this  number  is  now 
being  constructed,  and  it  will  be  some 
time  before  they  will  be  ready  for  use. 

There  is  even  talk  of  a  resumption  of 
government  control  over  coal  if  condi- 
tions are  not  remedied.  It  is  rumored 
that  the  president  may  appoint  a  fuel 
administrator  to  deal  with  the  situation 
with  war-time  powers.  Members  of 
Congress,  who  voted  to  deprive  the 
executive  of  the  powers  of  war  legisla- 
tion, are  urging  such  an  appointment. 
It  is  believed,  however,  that  no  action 
will  be  taken  at  Washington  until  more 
time  has  been  given  for  the  situation 
to  clear. 

What  is  said  to  be  an  up-to-the- 
minute  report  on  conditions  in  the  coal 
fields  was  submitted  this  week  by  the 
committee  of  bituminous  coal  operators 
to  the  conference  of  railway  executives 
and  operators  which  has  been  meeting 
in  New  York  and  discussing  plans  to 
relieve  the  fuel  shortage.  The  report 
states: 

"The  coal-producing  districts  of 
Pennsylvania,  Maryland,  West  Virginia, 
eastern  Kentucky  and  Ohio  since  April, 
1920,  have  been  able  to  ship  only  about 
three  per  cent  more  coal  than  in  1919. 

"The  market  demand  on  this  terri- 
tory requires  shipments  of  about  28,- 
000,000  tons  of  bituminous  coal  per 
month,  but  the  shipments  from  the 
mines  supplying  this  territory  for  April. 
May  and  June  have  averaged  only  about 
23,000,000  tons  per  month,  simply  be- 
cause not  enough  railway  cars  have 
been  available  at  the  mines  to  make  the 
shipment  required. 

"The  situation  requires  an  immediate 
minimum  increase  of  twenty-five  per 
cent  in  shipments  from  the  mines  of 
the  coal  fields  mentioned.  Current  ship- 
ments from  the  mines  must  be  increased 
by  a  minimum  of  5,000,000  tons  monthly. 

"The  mines  in  the  fields  under  dis- 
cussion have  sufficient  developed  capac- 
ity, with  men  and  machinery  entirely 
adequate,  to  produce  and  ship  more  than 
the  total  quantities  required.  Primary 
limitation  on  shipments  has  been  and  is 
a  lack  of  railroad  cars  to  move  the 
product  from  the  mines."

Edwin  Hicks. 

Edwin  Hicks,  head  of  the  Hicks  Nurs- 
eries, at  Westbury,  N.  Y.,  died  at  his 
home,  in  Westbury,  Saturday,  July  17, 
in  the  eightieth  year  of  his  age.  For 
fifty  years  he  had  been  active  in  the 
business  founded  by  his  father,  Isaac 
Hicks,  in  1850.  In  his  youth  he  was  a 
teacher  of  mathematics  in  the  Brooklyn 
Polytechnic  Institute,  and  during  his 
business  career  at  Westbury  he  served 
for  many  years  on  the  school  board  of 
his  district.  He  was  the  inventor  of 
many  appliances  used  in  the  business  of 
tree-moving,  and  was  really  the  pioneer 
in  this  now  important  branch  of  the 
nursery  business.  J.  H.  P.

John  A.  Bruce,  head  of  the  seed  house 
of  John  A.  Bruce  &  Co.,  Ltd.,  Hamilton, 
Ont.,  died  recently  at  his  home  at  Ham- 
ilton at  the  age  of  91.  The  firm  of 
John  A.  Bruce  &  Co.  was  established 
in  1850  and  has  been  known  as  the 
pioneer  seed  house  of  Canada.  Mr. 
Bruce  was  widely  known  and  was  looked 
upon  as  one  of  the  leaders  in  the  trade 
in  the  Dominion. 


NEW  YORK. 


The  Market. 

The  market  has  now  entered  a  period 
when  demand  is  small  indeed.  This  con- 
dition is  apparent  year  after  year  at 
the  same  time,  heretofore  attended  with 
a  great  deal  of  waste.  Most  of  the 
wastage  now  to  be  noticed  might  have 
been  avoided  with  a  little  discretion. 
For  instance,  one  or  two  growers  of 
gypsophila  evidently  believed  that  the 
market  could  absorb  immense  quanti- 
ties of  this  material,  and  it  came  in 
most  liberally,  some  sending  in  one 
shipment  as  many  as  nearly  a  thousand 
bunches.  Probably  the  thought  never 
occurred  to  these  shippers  that  such 
material  was  purchased  largely  for 
gratuitous  disposal,  just  as  a  retailer 
would  throw  in  a  little  green  stuff.  It 
was  not  even  in  the  stevia  class,  used 
largely  for  the  same  purpose,  but  always 
fragrant.  Consequently,  huge,  smelly 
masses  of  gypsophila  taxed  the  garbage 
barrels  of  many  commission  men.  Del- 
phinium gfrowers  have  also  sufferedj  not 
because  of  the  quality  of  their  stock, 
but  for  the  reason  that  their  choice  of 
varieties  was  not  of  the  best.  Growers 
of  herbaceous  stock  should  always  re- 
member that  color  counts  for  a  good 
deal.  Outdoor  gladioli  are  arriving  in 
good  quantity,  with  the  usual  possibility 
of  more  than  half  of  the  florets  not 
opening.  While  about  three  weeks  late, 
nobody  has  mourned  the  tardiness  of 
the  gladiolus  season. 

Roses  are  not  particularly  abundant, 
but  the  demand  for  them,  as  for  every- 
thing else,  is  light.  American  Beauty 
is  plentiful  enough  to  go  around,  with 
$25  per  hundred  top  price  in  the  spe- 
cial grades.  Hybrid  teas,  also  in  quan- 
tity, meet  the  demand,  with  prices 
varying  from  day  to  day  according  to 
the  call.  Monday,  July  19,  the  range 
was  about  50  cents  to  $8  per  hundred, 
with  movement  fair.  Much  open  stock 
is  moved  at  minimum  figures. 

Few    carnations    are    available,    and 


most  of  the  arrivals  have  little  value  as 
far  as  quality  is  concerned.  The  price 
range  is  50  cents  to  $15  per  hundred.- 

Easter  lilies  are  somewhat  plentiful, 
and  the  quality  of  arrivals  is  quite  good 
for  the  time  of  year.  About  $8  to  $12 
is  the  range  of  prices.  Lily  of  the  val- 
ley has  shortened  up,  but  there  is  quite 
sufi&cient  to  meet  the  ordinary  demand, 
at  $2  to  $8  per  hundred  sprays. 

Cattleya  orchids  in  supply  seem  to 
break  evenly  with  the  demand,  and  50 
cents  to  $1.50  per  flower  is  about  the 
range  for  the  better  grades,  with  culls 
down  to  25  cents.  A  few  cypripediums 
are  coming  in,  but  seem  to  be  kept  at 
an  asking  price  without  sign  of  move- 
ment. 

Sweet  peas  are  plentiful  at  25  cents 
to  75  cents  per  hundred,  with  outdoor 
stock  largely  in  evidence.  Snapdragons, 
calendulas,  delphiniums,  cornflowers 
and  bouvardia  are  offered  at  various 
prices,  according  to  quality. 

Various  Notes. 

Recent  news  from  C.  H.  Totty,  of 
Madison,  N.  J.,  is  to  the  effect  that  he 
is  enjoying  his  visit  in  France.  The 
roses  at  Bagatelle  evidently  have  not 
escaped  his  observation. 

Edwin  Hicks,  head  of  the  Hicks  Nurs- 
eries, Westbury,  L.  I.,  died  Saturday, 
July  17.  Fuller  notice  appears  in  the 
obituary  column.  J.  H.  P. 


INDIANAPOLIS,  IND. 


The  Market. 

Summer  business  has  been  holding  up 
fairly  well.  The  last  week,  however,  it 
has  dragged  a  little  and  caused  a  sur- 
plus of  roses.  These  can  now  be  pur- 
chased at  $2  to  $6  per  hundred,  which 
is  the  lowest  they  have  been  in  over  a 
year.  Carnations  have  deteriorated  un- 
til they  are  now  practically  gone.  A 
few  inferior  ones  are  available  at  $2  and 
$3  per  hundred. 

Gladioli  are  usually  plentiful  at  this 
time  of  the  year,  but  this  year  fewer  are 
seen.  The  dark  colors  predominate  and 
the  prices  are  $10  and  $12  per  hundred. 
Easter  lilies  are  in  evidence  and  sell  at 
$1  to  $2.50  per  dozen.  These  are  in  fair 
demand  for  funeral  work.  Strawflowers 
are  conspicuous  at  25  cents  per  bunch. 
Various  miscellaneous  flowers  are  seen, 
but  are  in  little  demand.  In  this  class 
are  zinnias,  marigolds,  pansies,  daisies, 
early  phlox  and  foxglove.  Baby's 
breath  is  in  bloom  and,  as  usual,  is  in 
good  demand. 

Various  Notes. 

All  Indianapolis  flower  stores  are  clos- 
ing on  Sunday.  The  florists  are  proud 
of  the  fact  and  hope  that  it  can  be  ob- 
served not  only  during  the  summer,  but 
all  the  year.  The  public  seems  perfectly 
satisfied  with  the  idea  and  business  has 
not  suffered. 

Lee  Rickenbach  and  John  Grande  are 
cutting  good  gladioli. 

The  local  aster  crop  has  been  a  fail- 
ure. 

O.  E.  Steinkamp  and  Mr.  and  Mrs. 
E.  E.  Temperley  are  home  from  their 
trip  west  with  the  Murat  Shriners. 

Theodore  Kuebler,  Jr.,  is  in  the  hos- 
pital, undergoing  an  operation. 

The  heavy  rains  are  causing  a  splen- 
did growing  season  for  carnations. 

Baur  &  Steinkamp  are  busy  shipping 
poinsettias.  Their  new  greenhouse  is 
progressing  well. 

From  all  report**,  near  and  far,  L.  E. 


Hitz,  Madison,  Ind.,  is  unequaled  when 
it  comes  to  knowing  how  to  entertain. 
He  had  charge  at  the  meeting  of  the 
Indiana  State  Florists'  Association, 
July  14,  at  Madison.  E.  E.  T. 


DENVEB,  COLO. 


The  Market. 

There  is  not  much  change  in  the  mar- 
ket since  last  week.  Prices  are  about 
the  same  and  there  is  practically  enough 
of  everything  to  go  around.  Carna- 
tions are  rather  poor  and  are  approach- 
ing a  scarcity.  Roses  are  smaller,  due 
to  the  hot  weather.  A  better  grade  of 
sweet  peas  is  coming  in  now.  Gypso- 
phila, cornflowers  and  gladioli  make  up 
the  list  of  outdoor  stock. 

Various  Notes. 

The  parking  in  front  of  Fred  Maler  's 
place  is  a  delight  to  all  who  see  it.  The 
entire  length  of  a  city  block  has  been 
thickly  planted  with  young  _  spruce. 
Passing  there  in  the  early  morning,  one 
has  the  impression  of  being  in  the 
mountains. 

The  Elitch  Gardens  Co.  has  started 
an  addition  to  the  boiler  room.  A  new 
boiler  is  to  be  installed  and  the  whole 
steam  system  in  the  rose  range  over- 
hauled. An  80-foot  brick  stack  will  be 
built.  Harry  Harlow,  foreman  of  the 
company,  is  spending  a  two  weeks'  va- 
cation on  the  Gunnison. 

N.  A.  Benson  recently  purchased  a 
new  residence  in  the  Washington  park 
district. 

Conrad  Lengenfelder  has  commenced 
cutting  from  his  young  carnation 
plants.  R-  E.  H. 

CHICAGO. 


The  Market. 

The  shipping  demand  continues  un- 
usually strong  for  the  time  of  year  and 
every  now  and  then  there  is  a  spurt  in 
city  trade,  which  shows  that  the  people 
are  still  buying  flowers  upon  occasion. 
Of  course  average  prices  are  much  lower 
than  last  month,  the  quantity  of  stock 
handled  is  less  and  the  aggregate  of 
sales  is  small  compared  with  a  winter 
month,  but  on  the  whole  business  is  good 
for  July.  This  is  particularly  true  of 
the  out-of-town  demand.  The  shipping 
orders  are  not  so  large  as  during  the 
winter,  but  they  are  much  more  numer- 
ous than  in  any  previous  summer.  The 
trade  is  a  little  more  spasmodic  than 
when  the  use  of  flowers  is  not  so  largely 
for  funeral  work,  but  the  out-of-town 
demand  continues  to  be,  as  in  times  of 
most  active  business,  the  mainstay  of 
the  market. 

The  weather  has  been  a  favorable  in- 
fluence. Except  for  an  occasional  brief 
hot  spell,  the  trade  in  the  Chicago  ter- 
ritory has  been  enjoying  cool  weather, 
highly  beneficial  to  stock  in  the  green- 
houses and  fields  and  an  aid  to  its  satis- 
factory distribution.  It  is  the  general 
opinion  that  roses  are  of  better  average 
quality  than  at  this  time  in  any  pre- 
vious year.  A  part  of  this  is  due  to  the 
now  general  use  of  the  newer  varieties, 
which  are  all-the-year-around  roses 
rather  than  croppers  or  short-season  va- 
rieties. The  result,  however,  is  another 
demonstration  of  the  old  saying,  "Pro- 
duce the  goods  and  the  demand  will 
come."  It  is  coming,  daily.  During  the 
last  week  there  has  been  some  reduction

sell, Premier  and  Columbia,  and  the 
market  is  cleaning  up  well  each  day  at 
rather  better  average  prices  than  earlier 
in  the  month. 

Carnations  are  on  the  do%vnward  path. 
The  supply  decreases  each  day,  as  one 
by  one  the  growers  clean  out  the  houses 
for  replanting,  but  what  carnations 
there  are  show  unusually  good  quality 
for  the  time  of  year.  There  are  only  a 
few  asters  as  yet,  with  the  probability 
that  the  supply  will  be  light  this  sea- 
son. There  is,  however,  a  rapidly  in- 
creasing supply  of  gladioli.  These  are 
making  excellent  prices,  compared  with 
the  figures  of  other  years.  Not  espe- 
cially good  stock  is  selling  readily,  to 
city  buyers,  at  as  much  as  $1.50  per 
dozen  stalks  and,  occasionally,  $2.  Pen- 
dleton is  the  variety  most  numerously 
seen. 

Peonies  hold  out;  they  seem  to  be 
keeping  unusually  well  this  year,  and 
several  wholesalers  will  have  them  into 
August.  Valley  is  not  more  plentiful, 
but  is  less  in  demand.  The  same  may 
be  said  of  cattleyas.  Gigantcum  lilies 
have  shortened  up  and  are  selling  bet- 
ter than  when  the  supply  was  large.

the  surrounding  towns  report  that  they 
have  received  bills  for  considerable  coal 
which  has  been  shipped  but  not  yet 
arrived.  Several  know  where  their  cars 
are,  on  sidings  not  accessible  to  teams. 
It  is  a  quite  general  report  from  those 
who  come  in  from  the  country  that  the 
sidings  just  outside  the  city  are  full  of 
cars  of  coal,  much  of  which  has  not 
moved  for  weeks.  Those  who  use  east- 
ern coal  do  not  seem  to  be  as  well  situ- 
ated as  the  ones  who  burn  southern  Illi- 
nois or  Indiana  fuel.  The  price  is  occa- 
sioning as  much  concern  as  the  slowness 
of  delivery.  If  flowers  do  not  bring 
big  prices  next  winter  the  growers  will 
lose  money. 

One  of  the  local  newspapers  has  a 
reporter  each  day  ask  the  same  ques- 
tions of  five  persons  on  the  street,  and 
publishes  their  answers.  July  20  the 
question  was,  "Have  you  laid  in  your 
winter  coal?"    Among  the  answers  was 

this: 

M.  O.  Redding,  822  Wrightwood  ayenue,  flo- 
rist—I  have  laid  in  fifteen  tons.  If  that  Isn't 
enough  I  am  going  to  hit  the  road  for  some  hot 
spot. 

That  seems  to  be  the  general  idea 
among  those  who  are  footloose. 

Flower  Orowers'  Annual  Meeting. 

The  annual  meeting  of  stockholders 
of  the  Chicago  Flower  Growers'  Asso- 
ciation was  held  at  the  company's  office 
July  15.  The  reports  were  so  satisfac- 
tory that  the  five  directors  whose  terms 
expire  this  year  were  unanimously  re- 
elected. They  are  George  C.  Weiland, 
E.  C.  Ellsworth,  Charles  McCauley, 
Joseph  Schoos  and  Paul  E.  Klingsporn. 
The  four  holdover  directors  are  Anton 
Then,  Edward  Meuret,  Fred  Stielow  and 
Fred  Schramm.  After  the  stockholders 
had  adjourned  the  directors  organized 
for  the  year  by  reelecting  all  the  officers 
except  Vice-president  Meuret,  who  has 
sold  his  greenhouses  and  who  plans  a 
good  rest  from  business  cares.  In  his 
place  Fred  Schramm  was  chosen.  The 
other  officers  are:  President,  George  C. 
Weiland;  treasurer,  Charles  McCauley; 
secretary,  E.  C.  Ellsworth;  manager, 
Paul  E.  Klingsporn.

James  S.  Kaelin,  who  recently  sold 
his  greenhouses  at  Niles  Center  to  Ed- 
ward Shimanek,  is  at  Belvidere,  111., 
where  he  is  wrecking  the  Eldredge 
greenhouses,  selling  off  a  portion  of  the 
material.  He  plans  to  build  a  range  in 
the  autumn,  but  has  not  decided  on  his 
location. 

Paul  E.  Klingsporn  reports  that 
George  C.  Weiland,  of  Evanston;  Nich- 
olas Dahm,  of  Morton  Grove,  and  C.  H. 
Ketcham,  of  Benton  Harbor,  all  started 
cutting  gladioli  on  the  same  day, 
JTuly  15. 

A.  C.  Kohlbrand  left  July  18  to  join 
Mrs.  Kohlbrand  at  Wooster,  Mich., 
where  the  popular  and  efficient  secre- 
tary of  the  Chicago  Wholesale  Cut 
Flower  Association  will  spend  a  fort- 
-night  fishing. 

M.  C.  Sadewater  and  J.  McCarthy 
have  taken  the  greenhouses  at  6450 
Bidge  avenue,  in  the  Eogers  Park  grow- 
ing district,  and  will  run  them  under  the 
firm  name  of  Sadewater  &  McCarthy. 
Each  is  an  experienced  grower.  They 
have  bought  10,000  chrysanthemum 
plants  as  a  starter  at  stocking  the  place. 

Visitors. 

Florists  frequently  combine  business 
and  pleasure.  Consequently  vacation 
trips  usually  are  made  to  centers  of 
trade  interest,  with  the  result  that  in 
the  quiet  business  season  the  visitors 
are  most  numerous.  There  have  been 
large  numbers  of  florists  here  in  the 
last  week,  probably  more  than  in  any 
previous  ordinary  week.  Many  were 
out  for  pleasure  only,  but  they  visited 
the  market  just  the  same  and  many 
bought  freely  for  later  delivery,  espe- 
.cially     florists'     supplies,     lily     bulbs.

plaintiffs,  as  agents,  direct  from  Hol- 
land, arriyed  last  fall  some  days  later 
than  agreed  and  were  delivered  while 
he  waa  setting  out  other  bulbs.  On  this 
account  he  did  not  unpack  them  until 
fifteen  or  twenty  days  after  they  ar- 
rived, although  meanwhile  they  were 
kept  in  cold  storage.  When  unpacked 
they  wore  in  bad  condition,  many  being 
dried  up  and  many  of  them  rotten.  He 
planted  them,  however,  but  they  turned 
out  to  be  practically  worthless.  He 
said  that  he  already  had  paid  for  three 
unsatisfactory  shipments  from  the  plain- 
tiff. Judge  Baker  gave  a  verdict  for 
the  defendant,  saying  that  the  plain- 
tiff's testimony  was  indefinite  and  in- 
sufficient. W.  n.  M. 


PHIIiADEIiPHIA. 


The  Market. 

The  supply  of  cut  flowers  exceeds  the 
demand  for  them  just  as  much  as  it  did 
a  week  ago,  with  this  difference:  It  is 
no  longer  roses  that  suffer;  it  is  every- 
thing. 

The  heavy  crop  of  short-stemmed 
roses  is  past;  the  growers  are  drying 
off  some  of  their  plants.  Carnations  are 
bringing  less  and  less.  Sweet  peas  are 
disappearing. 

The  summer  flowers  rule  the  market 
now.  Of  these,  gladioli  lead  today.  It 
seems  that  the  dark  varieties  are  a 
little  earlier  in  blooming  than  the  light. 
A  good  judge  thought  that  eighty  per 
cent  of  the  gladioli  coming  in  are  dark. 
That  is  entirely  out  of  proportion  to 
the  needs  of  the  buyers,  who  would 
probably  say  that  one-quarter  dark 
colors  and  three-quarters  light  colors  is 
about  right.  In  consequence,  many  of 
the  dark-colored  varieties  have  been 
hard  to  market,  even  at  low  prices. 
Herada,  a  plum-colored  variety,  is  the 
exception.  It  is  an  unusual  color  in 
gladioli,  or  any  other  variety  of  flower. 
It  is  exceedingly  well  grown  and  it  is 
popular. 

Asters  increase  as  carnations  de- 
crease. They  can  now  be  had  in  all  the 
aster  colors.  The  flowers  are  fine  and 
the  prices  are  good. 

While  the  crop  of  Easter  lilies  is  not 
so  heavy,  it  is  still  large.  Most  of 
them  are  nice,  clean  stock.  Prices  are 
a  little  better  than  the  discouraging  low 
figures  of  the  week  before. 

The  character  of  the  other  flowers 
is  changing.  Snapdragons  are  almost 
useless  now.  There  is  a  little  short- 
stemmed  delphinium.  The  small  out- 
door flowers,  so  useful  a  month  ago,  are 
disappearing. 

Business  is  fair,  but,  with  so  large  a 
supply,  it  is  di.scouragiug  to  the  sales- 
men, who  were  now  ready  for  their 
vacations. 

A  Spectacular  Sale. 

Preface.  —  When  the  department 
stores  first  encroached  on  the  florists' 
plant  field  there  was  war  in  our  camp. 
The  retailers  charged  the  growers  with 
cutting  prices  to  their  enemy,  greasing 
the  palm  of  the  department  store  and 
doing  other  unlawful  things.  Feeling 
ran  so  high  that  the  words  ostracize 
and  boycott  became  as  familiar  as  palm 
and  fern  in  retail  circles.  It  was  even 
said  that  the  genial  Robert  Kift  had 
cut  his  friend  dead  and  had  refused  to 
be  mollified  until  assured  by  Mr.  Ball 
on  his  knife  that  he  would  not  sell  and 
never  had  sold  to  a  department  store 
any  cheaper  than  to  a  retail  florist.   All

that  is  changed  now.  The  department 
Htore  plant  sales  are  a  recognized  part 
"f  the  business;  they  excite  little  com- 
ment beyond  the  interest  of  the  wide-

plant  sale  beginning  Monday,  July  19. 
Three  large  truck  loads  of  plants  opened 
the  sale  on  Monday  morning — a  sale  re- 
markable for  the  fact  that  the  plants 
were  of  high  quality  and  that  not  less 
than  100  of  a  size  was  offered  at  the 
^tart.  Inquiry  brought  out  the  fact  that 
^he  plants  all  came  from  the  Robert

the  order,  a  quite  large  one,  was  taken 
at  the  regular  wholesale  price,  with  a 
trifling  concession  allowed. 

To  say  that  the  street  was  staggered 
is  putting  it  mildly.  Carter  is  a  wizard, 
but  can  he  do  it?  A  thoughtful  busi- 
ness man  explained  Mr.  Carter's  move 
in  this  way:  People  are  at  home  this 
summer.  The  prices  of  the  cottages 
and  apartments  at  the  seashore  are  so 


high  that  many  of  them  are  still  vacant. 
There  is  a  good  chance  of  doing  now 
what   has  never  been  done  before. 

Mr.  Carter,  who  manages  the  glass, 
china,  cut  flower  and  plant  departments 
of  N.  Snellenburg  &  Co.  and  who  travels 
abroad  for  this  house,  said  he  meant  to 
put  a  plant  on  every  porch  in  the  city.

gem.    Prices  are  always  given,  both  th«

Baseball. 

Through  the  efforts  of  J.  M.  Deutsch- 
er,  the  indefatigable  manager  of  the 
Philadelphia  Wholesale  Florists'  Ex- 
change, the  ball  season  was  formally 
opened  at  Belmont  on  the  afternoon  of 
July  16.  The  opposing  teams  were 
from  the  S.  S.  Pennock  Co.  and  the 
Philadelphia  florists  chosen  by  Mr. 
Deutscher.  The  score  stood  at  16  to  3 
in  favor  of  the  S.  8.  Pennock  Co.  at 
the  end  of  the  fourth  inning,  when  rain 
stopped  play,  making  the  game  a  tech- 
nical draw. 

The  Pennock  team  pride  themselves 
on  the  fact  that  their  strength  is  simon- 
pure,  i.  e.,  they  have  no  outsiders  on  the 
team.  For  the  Philadelphia  florists

BOSTON. 

Tlie  Market. 

•  Little  business  in  cut  flowers  is  being 
done  at  present.  The  number  of  ship- 
ments being  received  is  small,  and  qual- 
ity is  at  its  usual  low  midsummer  ebb. 
Markets  have  a  half-deserted  appear- 
ance and  during  July  and  August  they 
might  just  as  well  close  at  noon  the 
whole  week  as  Saturday  only. 

Boses  are  of  inferior  quality.  Excep- 
tions are  some  fairly  good  Francis  Scott 
Key  and  Kaiserin.  Such  varieties  as 
Ophelia,  Killarney  and  White  Killarney 
are  now  of  little  value.  Carnations  con- 
tinue to  grow  fewer  and  poorer.  The 
variety  Morning  Glow  asserts  its  su- 
premacy over  all  others  at  this  time, 
while  Matchless  proves  a  good  hot 
weather  variety.  Sweet  peas  are  not  of 
good  quality,  most  of  them  selling  at  50 
cents  to  $1  per  hundred.  Some  nice 
sweet  sultans  came  in  and  sold  fairly 
well,  better  than  bachelor's  buttons. 

There  is  a  good  supply  of  white 
Lilium  speciosum  at  $6  to  $8  per  hun- 
dred. L.  giganteum  brings  a  little  more. 
Gladioli  are  less  abundant  and  are  yet 
all  from  indoors.  Few  outdoor  ones  will 
be  J^vailable  before  August.  Hardy 
gypsophila  sells  well,  especially  the  dou- 
ble variety.  Larkspurs  are  on  the  wane, 
but  water  lilies  take  their  place  for  win- 
dow decorations.  The  few  available  cat- 
tleyas  are  Gaskelliana  and  gigas,  with 
prices  ranging  from  75  cents  to  $l-.50  per 
flower.  There  is  a  moderate  sale  only 
for  asparagus  now  that  gypsophila  is  in 
season. 

Various  Notes. 

The  executive  committee  of  the  Gar- 
deners' and  Florists'  Club  met  July  16 
and  completed  arrangements  for  the 
annual  picnic,  to  be  held  July  22  at 
Cunningham  park,  East  Milton.  Fine 
weather  only  is  needed  to  make  this 
the  most  successful  picnic  on  record. 
W.  J.  Kennedy  will  act  as  ringmaster, 
P.  M.  Miller  as  starter,  James  Methven 
as  handicapper  and  W.  N.  Craig  as 
clerk.  The  umpires  for  the  men's  and 
latlies'  baseball  games  are  8.  J.  God- 
dard  and  George  W.  Hamer,  while 
Peter  Pederzini  will  look  after  the 
boys'  games.  The  judges  for  the  nu- 
merous sporting  events  are  H.  H. 
Bartsch,  Fred  Cave,  George  Elliott,  Ken- 
neth Finlaysoii,  S.  J.  Goddard,  William

The  preliminary  schedule  of  the 
Massachusetts  Horticultural  Society  for 
the  spring  show,  April  6  to  10,  1921,  has 
been  issued.  There  are  eleven  classes 
for  roses  in  pots,  with  premiums  of 
$1,000  and  a  gold  medal,  and  $500  and  a 
silver  medal  for  the  best  rose  garden. 
There  are  six  gn*oup  classes  for  orchids, 
half  for  commercial  growers,  with  a 
$500  cup  offered  by  A.  C.  Burrage  in 
the  200  square  feet  group.  The  cut 
flower  schedule  will  be  issued  later  in 
the  season. 

Penn  'a  annual  duck  farm  window  con- 
tinues to  interest  thousands  daily  on 
Tremont  street.  There  is  something  es- 
pecially fascinating  in  water  scenes 
such  as  this  during  the  torrid  portion 
of  the  year. 

Andrew  Mitchell,  of  North  Sudbury, 
formerly  in  business  at  East  Milton 
with  C.  T.  Beasley,  the  pansy  specialist, 
is  sending  in  some  good  sweet  sultans 
to  the  market.  Early  sowing  under 
glass  is  necessary  to  make  complete  suc- 
cess with  this  useful  summer  annual. 

Andrew  Christensen,  Stoneham,  leaves 
August  4  for  Southampton,  England,  for 
a  European  trip.  He  is  at  present  busy 
with  his  carnation  houses  and  hopes  to 
have  them  completed  and  planted  before 
he  leaves.  As  Mr.  Christensen  is  a  keen 
)b3crver,  his  impressions  of  Europe  will 
to  interesting  to  listen  to. 

Patrick  Welch  is  enjoying  his  annual 
summer  vacation  at  Old  Orchard  Boach, 
Me.,  where  he  is  one  of  the  best  known 
cottagers.  In  liis  absence  his  son  Ed 
has  full  charge  of  the  store.  A  good 
shipping  business  is  being  done  to  sum- 
mer resorts. 

There  is  no  relief  in  the  coal  situation, 
with  soft  coal  at  $15  and  $16  per  ton  at 
the  mines.  The  outlook  for  New  Eng- 
land is  far  from  encouraging. 

R.  E.  Wadsworth  &  Co.,  Northboro, 
Mass.,  have  eight  acres  of  their  land 
equipped  with  the  Skinner  irrigation 
system.  This  they  find  valuable  for  car- 
nations, as  they  are  large  growers.  They 
at  one  time  grow  vegetables  heavily, 
but  discontinued  it,  as  their  land  is  stiff, 
heavy  and  late-prodncing  compared  with 
lighter,  sandy  loams.  W.  N.  C. 

Litchfield,  m.— C.  W.  Morris  is  con-

Florists' 
Refrigerators 

We  manufacture,  in  our  own  plant,  a  complete 
line  of  florists'  refrigerators.  While  we  have 
many  popular  standard  designs,  most  refrig- 
erators are  built  for  individual  requirements. 
Brecht  Refrigerators  are  the  result  of  67  years' 
experience.  They  are  designed  on  a  scien- 
tific basis,  from  the  best  material  obtainable, 
and  are  built  to  give  greatest  service  with 
minimum  ice  consumption. 

We  will  be  glad  to  quote  you  on  our  standard 
designs,  or  to  offer  suggestions  and  submit 
special  designs  upon  receipt  of  your  require- 
ments.

A  TELEGRAM  received  July  19 :  "  Stop 
ad;  all  salable  stock  destroyed  by  fire. 
Rudolph  Fischer,  San  Gabriel,  Cal. ' ' 


glendaij:,  cal. 


Glendale  is  to  have  a  new  industry. 
W.  B.  Davis,  of  Aurora,  111.,  has  bought 
a  piece  of  land  and  has  shipped  Mon- 
inger  material  here  from  Chicago  for 
the  erection  of  two  greenhouses,  each 
36x300,  which  will  be  used  for  growing 
cucumbers  for  the  Los  Angeles  market, 
twenty  miles  away.  The  business  will 
be  conducted  by  a  corporation  to  be 
known  as  the  Davis-Glendale  Co.  Erec- 
tion will  be  pushed,  to  get  production 
under  way  as  soon  as  possible.  The 
houses  are  specially  designed  for  this 
anowless  and  windless  climate,  being 
much  lighter  than  the  Davis  interests 
build  in  the  states  of  Illinois,  Iowa  and 
Indiana,  where  the  brothers  are  large 
operators.  W.  B.  Davis  is  the  head  of 
the  W.  B.  Davis  Co.,  at  Aurora,  111.,  and 
of  the  Davis-Kankakee  Co.,  at  Kanka- 
kee, 111.  He  recently  took  over  the 
bankrupt  establishment  of  the  J.  D. 
Thompson  Carnation  Co.,  at  Joliet,  111., 
organizing  the  Davis-Joliet  Co.,  but  this 
has  now  been  sold  to  the  J.  W.  Davis 
Co.,  of  which  a  brother  is  at  the  head. 
The  J.  W.  Davis  Co.,  which  operates 
large  establishments  at  Davenport,  la., 
and  Terre  Haute,  Ind.,  also  grows  vege- 
tables. Other  brothers  in  the  Davis 
family  are  in  the  vegetable  farming  and 
florist  business  at  Morrison,  111., 
Streator,  111.,  and  Davenport,  la.  This 
is  the  family's  first  incursion  into  Pa- 
cific coast  business  fields,  although  W.  B. 
Davis  has  made  a  number  of  winter 
vacation  trips  to  the  locality  in  which 
he  now  is  investing. 


LOS  ANGELES,  CAL. 


The  Market. 

While  shipping  business  has  been  de- 
cidedly poor,  owing  to  the  heat,  the  re- 
tailers have  had  little  to  complain  of, 
owing  to  an  exceptionally  big  funeral 
•lemand.  From  all  out-of-town  points 
comes  the  request  to  ship  more  variety 
in  stock,  but  this  is  practically  impossi- 
ble, as  there  are  so  few  kinds  that  will 
ship  any  distance.  Roses  are  out  of  the 
question  for  more  than  a  couple  of  days' 
journey,  as  they  are  of  poor  substance 
and  color  now.  Asters,  gladioli,  yellow 
and  Shasta  daisies  and  statice  arc  about 
the  best  shippers.  Carnations  are  fairly 
good  from  outdoors,  but  the  greenhouse 
stock  is  almost  worthless  now.  Dahlias 
are  in  strong  force  and  are  excellent  for 
displaj-,  while  some  varieties  are  used 
for  funeral  work,  but  tliey  are  not  ex- 
actly satisfactory  for  sliipiting  long  dis- 
tances. 

Various  Notes. 

Harry  Bailey,  of  MontcbeUo,  and  Mrs. 
Bailey  started  last  week  for  a  business 
and  pleasure  trip  to  San  Francisco, 
iisin<i;  their  automobile  both  ways.  Mr. 
Bailey  says  that  the  demand  for  Freesia 
Purity  this  season  will  probably  be  con- 
siderably over  the  supply. 

Arthur  Gleave,  of  Gleave's  Flower 
Shop,  Santa  Barbara,  was  a  visitor  here- 


last  week  and  intends  to  take  the  boat 
for  a  trip  north  when  he  finfshes  his 
business. 

J.  T.  Ward  and  Mrs.  Ward  and  daugh- 
ter left  last  week  for  San  Diego,  en 
route  for  their  home,  at  Handley,  Tex. 

The  L,  A.  Floral  Co.  has  been  ship- 
ping large  quantities  of  made-up  funeral 
work  to  Arizona  and  Imperial  valley 
points.  This  service  is  appreciated  by 
florists  who  do  not  carry  large  quanti- 
ties of  stock. 

Robert  Armstrong  is  superintending 
the  lifting  of  large  Cocos  plumosa  at 
the  R.  C.  Nurseries,  Montebello,  for 
Paul  J.  Howard,  who  has  purchased  the 
entire  stock.  As  showing  the  scope  of 
Mr.  Howard's  business  in  the  landscape 
end,  Mr.  Armstrong  says  that  they  have 
over  200  men  now  on  the  pay  roll.  Ed 
Howard  now  has  charge  of  the  nursery 
at  Los  Nietos. 

Fred  Westrom,  of  Wright's  Flower 
Shop,  is  getting  the  wagon  tuned  up  for 
a  trip  into  the  mountains  in  San  Diego 
[Concluded  on  pace  118.] 


SAN  FRANCISCO. 


Tlie  Maxket. 

There  is  no  great  activity  in  business 
this  month;  still,  the  summer  lull  to 
date  has  hardly  been  so  pronounced  as 
in  former  years.  It  seems  more  tourists 
are  visiting  in  California  this  year  than 
ever  before,  and  there  is  much  enter- 
tainment in  their  behalf,  which  tends 
to  keep  up  interest  in  cut  flowers. 

Stock  is  good  for  this  time  of  the 
year.  Roses  and  other  staples  leave 
no  room  for  complaint  in  quality,  and 
the  quantity  is  sufficient  for  most  re- 
quirements. The  only  real  shortage  is  of 
orchids.  The  supply  of  these  flowers 
is  quite  limited,  and  the  growers  are 
forced  to  allow  each  store  a  certain 
allotment  each  day.  On  the  other  hand, 
gardenias  are  plentiful,  which  helps  to 
relieve  the  situation,  since  these  are 
substituted  for  orchids  wherevers  pos- 
sible. 

A   nice   cut   of  cyclamen  is  well  re-

ceived.  Asters  are  increasing  in  supply, 
but  their  shipping  season  is  just  start- 
ing. In  another  week,  it  is  expected, 
however,  that  quantities  of  these  flowers 
will  be  available  for  long-distance  ship- 
ping. All  indications  point  to  an  ex- 
cellent season  for  them,  as  well  as 
ehrysanthemums,  which  will  soon  be- 
come a  feature  of  the  market  here. 
.Some  Early  Frost  mums  have  been  of- 
fered for  two  or  three  weeks,  but  the 
supply  has  been  limited  thus  far  and 
the  blooms  have  not  been  hardy  enough 
for  shipping  purposes.  A  few  Chrysolora 
mums  are  also  appearing,  which  indi- 
cates that  the  season  will  soon  be  well 
under  way. 

Sweet  peas  are  about  gone  and  gladi- 
oli are  nearing  the  end,  but  they  are 
not  seriously  missed,  as  zinnias  and 
dahlias    are    becoming    more    plentiful

plenty  of  stock  except  orchids.  He

The  Market. 

The  month  of  June  was  a  record- 
breaker  for  the  local  florists.  The  an- 
nual rose  festival  and  the  Shriners'  con- 
vention were  the  principal  factors  in 
securing  a  large  volume  of  business,  but 
many  weddings  and  social  events,  to- 
gether with  the  usual  amount  of  funeral 
work  and  regular  trade,  helped  to  swell 
the  business  and  made  it  the  best  June 
for  business  this  city  has  ever  known. 

After  several  weeks  of  hard,  strenu- 
ous work,  the  florists  are  now  able  to 
take  a  much  needed  rest.  Business  has 
been  quiet  the  last  two  weeks  and  many 
are  taking  advantage  of  the  lull  by  al- 
lowing their  employees  to  take  vaca- 
tions. 

Flowers  are  in  fair  supply  and  are  of 
good  quality,  mostly  outdoor  stock. 

Various  Notes. 

The  Lalane  Flower  Shop  sold  its  stock 
and  fixtures  to  Dick  Cook.  •  The  build- 
ing in  which  it  was  located  is  to  be  re- 
modeled in  a  short  time  and  Mr.  Lalane 
figured  that  now,  while  business  is  quiet, 
is  the  best  time  to  get  out. 

Albert  Clarke,  of  Clarke  Bros.,  and 
H.  J.  Millatt,  his  store  man,  motored  up 
the  Columbia  highway  Sunday,  July  11. 
A  few  visitors  accompanied  them  and, 
from  all  accounts,  it  was  a  big  day  and 
a  big  time. 

L.  T.  Sebolt  has  begun  his  annual  cut 
of  gladioli.  He  manages  to  get  them  on 
the  market  early. 

Owing  to  the  rainy  weather  recently, 
the  florists'  annual  picnic  was  postponed 
to  July  21. 

John  Kleger  is  now  sending  in  large 
quantities  of  his  famous  sweet  peas, 
which  are  grown  on  the  Columbia  river

The  regular  meeting  of  the  Portland 
Floral  Society  was  held  Tuesday,  July 
13.  The  attendance  was  small.  Presi- 
dent Tonseth  announced  his  committees 
for  the  ensuing  year  and,  from  all  indi- 
cations, there  is  going  to  be  something 
doing  at  every  meeting.  The  name  of 
the  society  is  going  to  be  changed.  As 
it  is  now  it  is  the  cause  of  much  confu- 
sion both  with  the  Rose  Society  and  the 
Rose  Festival  Society.  After  the  busi- 
ness meeting,  refreshments  were  served 
and  cards  were  played.  L.  T.  S.

The  Market. 

Slow  business  has  prevailed  for  the 
last  wepk,  but  deliveries  from  growers 
have  be)en  slow  as  well  and  no  incon- 
venience has  resulted.  There  were  a 
number  of  hot  days,  which  shortened 
the  deliveries  of  outdoor  flowers  and 
summer  rains  at  the  start  of  the  week 
served  to  reduce  sales. 

There  have  been  some  fine  deliveries 
of  roses  lately,  with  Columbia  probably 
the  best.  Ulrich  Brunner  is  another 
popular  offering  and  Ophelia  and  Ward 
have  been  plentiful.  Duchess  of  Wel- 
lington and  Mme.  Caroline  Testout  are 
seen  in  commercial  quantities  and  have 
cleaned  up  well. 

Spring  flowers  used  in  baskets  have 
probably  been  the  heaviest  selling  item 
lately,  with  gladioli,  snapdragons,  iris, 
larkspurs  and  gypsophila  used  freely. 

The  week  saw  a  big  funeral  busi- 
ness, which  saved  the  trade  from  a 
carry-over  at  the  end  of  last  week. 
Three  of  the  largest  funerals  known  in 
Seattle  were  held.  One  of  these  was 
productive  of  more  telegraph  business 
than  any  other  funeral  ever  held  here 
and  the  orders  were  well  distributed 
among  the  houses  that  are  using  the 
trade  papers  to  notify  other  florists  of 
their  willingness  to  handle  telegraph 
business. 

Lilies  have  been  shown  steadily, 
water  lilies  being  the  favorite  at  this 
time.  Myrus  Phylleen,  a  variety  intro- 
duced last  season  by  a  local  grower, 
has  been  used  to  good  effect  and  Regal 
is  also  being  used.

Hamburg  boats  are  bringing  consider- 
able shipments  of  grass  seeds. 

Eeports  from  pea  districts  in  Wiscon- 
sin are  discouraging  again  this  year. 

John  A.  Bruce,  head  of  John  A.  Bruce 
&  Co.,  Hamilton,  Ont.,  died  recently  at  his 
home  at  Hamilton  at  the  age  of  91. 

Reduction  in  acreage  of  vegetable 
seeds  is  contemplated  by  many  growers. 
The  large  carry-over  this  year  represents 
in  most  cases  a  shrinkage  in  value  to  be- 
low normal  figures. 

Effects  of  the  financial  tightening 
have  made  themselves  apparent  in  th^ 
horticultural  trades  first  among  seeds- 
men. The  last  year  has  not  been  so  pros- 
perous a  one  for  them  as  for  nurserymen 
and  florists. 

Resignation  of  Axel  Setterberg  from 
the  position  of  general  manager  of  the 
Everette  R.  Peacock  Co.,  Chicago,  took 
effect  last  week.  He  withdrew  at  the 
same  time  from  the  Oshkosh  Seed  Co., 
Oshkosh,  Wis.,  an  allied  holding. 

The  oflScial  roster  of  the  L.  L.  Olds 
Seed  Co.  is:  President  and  manager, 
L.  L.  Olds;  vice-president,  W.  D.  Curtis; 
secretary,  S.  A.  Wilson;  assistant  man- 
agerf  Peter  P.  Carr;  treasurer,  E.  F. 
Riley;  directors,  Charles  N.  Brown,  W.  A. 
Tracy  and  Vroman  Mason. 

The  United  States  Civil  Service  Com- 
mission announces  an  open  competitive 
examination  for  superintendent  of  field 
seed  distribution  to  fiU  a  vacancy  in  the 
bureau  of  plant  industry,  Department  of 
Agriculture,  Washington,  D.  C,  at  a 
salary  of  $2,160  a  year.  Other  positions 
requiring  similar  qualifications  will  be 
filled  from  this  examination.  Applicants 
should  apply  for  form  2118,  stating  the 
title  of  the  examination  desired,  to  the 
Civil  Service  Commission,  Washington, 
D.  C. 

The  damage  to  seed  crops  in  the  vicin- 
ity of  Rocky  Ford,  Colo.,  by  hail,  reported 
in  The  Review  last  week,  is  not  so  ex- 
tensive as  at  first  believed.  About  ten 
per  cent  of  the  crops  at  Rocky  Ford  were 
lost.  About  seventy-five  per  cent  of  the 
crops  at  Ordway  were  lost  or  badly  dam- 
aged; cucumber  and  melon  crops  were 
practically  total  losses,  but  cucumber  will 
be  replanted.  The  loss  at  Swink  is  re- 
ported as  heavy.  Summer  squash  and 
pumpkin  are  beginning  to  grow  from  the 
stubs  of  the  plants  and  will  make  from 
fifty  to  sixty-five  per  cent  of  a  crop  if  the 
remainder  of  the  season  is  favorable. 


FISHEB  LOSES  STOCK. 

Rudolph  Fischer,  of  San  Gabriel, 
Calif.,  has  lost  all  his  salable  stock  of 
freesia  bulbs  by  fire.  Details  are  lacking, 
the  bare  announcement  being  made  by 
Mr.  Fischer  in  a  telegram  to  The  Re- 
view the  purpose  of  which  was  to  head 
off  further  orders  for  stock  advertised 
and  which  has  been  lost  in  the  fire. 

Mr.  Fischer  is  well  known  throughout 
the  trade  as  the  originator  of  Freesia 
Purity  and  several  new  colored  varie- 
ties, Fischerii  and  Splendens  having 
been  put  on  the  market.

The  Review's  correspondent  in  Los 
Angeles:  "Rudolph  Fischer's  place  at 
San  Gabriel  burned  July  19.  According 
to  reports,  the  fire  started  in  the  bulb 
warehouse  and  spread  to  the  green- 
houses, destroyed  these  and  a  large 
quantity  of  new  freesias;  damage 
$10,000;  no  insurance." 


ILLUSTRATING  CATALOGUES. 


The  Common  Language. 

Arthur  Brisbane,  the  chief  editorial 
writer  for  Hearst's  string  of  newspa- 
pers, who  draws  an  income  in  salary 
greater  than  most  seedsmen  sell  gross 
in  a  year,  has  really  written  my  paper 
for  me.  In  a  talk  given  to  a  gathering 
of  advertising  men  some  time  ago  he 
made  this  significant  statement:  "A 
good  picture  is  worth  a  million  words. ' ' 

Pictures  are  a  common  language.  The 
wcrld  over,  where  words  of  one  lan- 
guage mean  nothing  to  persons  speak- 
ing another,  "pictures  convey  to  all 
persona,  in  a  quite  similar  way,  detailed 
facts  of  thought,  action  and  effect.  Be- 
cause of  this,  illustrations  have  come 
to  be  an  important  normal  and  natural 
adjunct  to  advertising  language  or  ex- 
pression. Like  all  of  the  other  elements 
that  go  into  the  make-up  of  a  complete 
advertising  message,  they  are  frequent- 
ly abused,  or  used  without  sufficient 
consideration  of  the  eflfect  they  are  to 
produce. 

When  to  illustrate  and  when  not  to, 
just  how  much  space  may  be  given  to 
this  form  of  language,  under  general 
conditions  and  specific  ones,  just  what 
types  of  illustration  make  certain  kinds 
of  appeal,  just  what  treatment  they  per- 
mit in  order  to  be  most  eflicient — these 
and  many  other  questions  are  daily 
argued    and    daily    experimented    with. 

Fimction  of  Illustrations. 

In  the  language  of  the  advertising 
man,  "the  first  function  of  an  illustra- 
tion is  to  supplement,  make  stronger, 
clearer,  or  more  attractive,  something 
which  the  advertising  text  fails  to  pre- 
sent successfully."  A  good  illustration 
will  convey  fact  and  quality  and  create 
a  mental  condition  through  suggestion. 

Getting  attention  is  one  thing — gain- 
ing favorable  attention  is  quite  another. 
An  illustration  that  exaggerates  is  de- 
cidedly a  weak  one.  It  usually  will  do 
more  harm  than  good  and  should  never 
be  used.  Every  incident  pictured  or 
portrayed  in  any  kind  of  advertising, 
unless  it  is  manifestly  visionary  or 
purely  imaginative,  should  either  have 
happened  or  be  one  that  could  easily  oc-

tlons  In  Seed  Catalogues,"  delivered  by  Louli

cur.  We  all  know  that  printed  sales- 
manship must  inspire  confidence.  It 
must  be  believed.  An  illustration  that 
fails  to  tell  the  truth  is  just  as  much 
an  offender  as  the  text  that  exaggerates. 

You  all  know  that  you  have  hundreds 
of  customers  who  will  more  quickly 
grasp  the  fact  and  quality  of  a  flat- 
head  type  of  cabbage  if  it  is  illustrated 
than  if  it  were  merely  described  in 
words.  There  are  so  many  varied  types 
in  vegetables  that  proper  illustrating 
will  materially  increase  sales  of  desirable 
varieties.  Again,  many  of  our  custom- 
ers have  had  so  little  of  educational  ad- 
vantages that  pictures  are  practically 
the  only  methofl  of  getting  the  descrip- 
tion across  and   understood.

Dreer   Specials   in   Florists'    Flower    Seeds 


Dreer's  Prize  Dwarf  Cineraria 

We  have  an  extra  fine  strain  this  season,  plants  of  compact 
habit  with  flowers  of  largest  size  and  in  d  splendid  range  of 
bright  colors.    Trade  pkt.  of  about  1,000  seeds,  $1.00. 

Dreer's  Superb  Giant  Cyclamen 

We  have  now  in  stock  new  crop  American-grown  seed  and 
we  believe  the  strain  is  better  than  the  best  ever  imported  and 
can  furnish  in  the  following  colors: 

Pure  white,  white  with  carmine  eye,  brilliant  red,  rich 
rose  and  salmon,  each  $1.50  per  100  seeds,  $12.00  per  1,000 
seeds.  Finest  mixed,  $1.25  per  100  seeds.  $10.00  per  1,000  seeds.  • 

Dreer's  Perfect  Pansies 

We  are  fortunate  in  having  a  very  good  supply  of  the  finest 
strains  in  separate  colors  and  in  mixture.  We  particularly 
recommend  our  Royal  Exhibition  Mixture,  which  is  un- 
equaled  for  size  and  coloring.  50c  per  trade  pkt.,  $1.25  per 
eighth  ounce,  $8.00  per  ounce.  For  other  varieties  as  well  as 
other  Flower  seeds  for  summer  sowing,  see  our  Special  Mid- 
summer offer.     Copies  free  on  request.

really  selling  a  result.  A  grower  is  not 
particularly  interested  in  seed,  but  he 
is  vitally  interested  in  the  product  of 
seed.  Unlike  the  mail  order  house  that 
sells  the  farmer  a  pair  of  shoes,  which 
are  immediately  available  for  use,  We 
offer  him  a  quantity  of  inert  material, 
the  value  of  which  depends  upon  the 
elements  and  the  intelligence  used  in 
planting,  etc.  So  the  effect  or  result 
of  the  proper  employment  of  our  prod- 
uct is  the  mental  impression  we  should 
seek  to  implant  in  the  customer's  mind. 
How  can  this  impression  be  created  so 
well  as  by  intelligent  illustration!  There 
is  really  no  argument  against  the  use 
of  illustrations.  The  only  possible 
opportunity  for  differing  opinions  is 
whether  or  not  it  will  pay  to  illustrate, 
'taking  into  consideration  the  type  of 
ciistomer  we  are  to  reach,  the  particular 
kind  of  seed  we  are  to  offer  and  the 
price.  For  instance,  there  are  certain 
classifications  of  prospects  that  might 
profitably  be  reached  with  a  mere  price 
list,  unillustrated  or  unadorned.  They 
might  be  thoroughly  familiar  with  all 
of  the  many  characteristics  of  the  many 
types  of  varieties  offered  them  and  sales 
from  such  a  piece  of  printed  matter 
might  be  as  effective  as  one  profusely 
illustrated.  Should  this  same  price  list, 
however,  get  into  the  hands  of  the  less 
oxporienced  or  less  intelligent,  the 
chances  for  se'ling  any  appreciable  order 
would  be  miuh  lessened  and,  if  it  were 
to  come  into  competition  with  a  hand- 
somely illustrated  catalogue,  the  plain 
price  list  would  be  pitifully  weak  in 
."ales  value. 

The  Value  of  Color. 

Color,  of  course,  has  its  value  in  mere 
ornamentation  and  attention-attracting 
value,  but  we  are  concerned  only  with  it 
as  a  real  sales  developer.  Certainly  no 
lino  of  goods  offers  finer  opportunities 
for  the  employment  of  color  in  illustra- 
tion than  that  of  the  seedsman  or 
nurseryman.  This  is  particularly  true 
of  flower  seeds,  as  the  desirability  of  one 
variety  over  another  can  be   so  much

The  Florists^  Review 


Jolt  22,  1920 


sale  of  a  particular  sort  you  let 
your  enthusiasm  for  illustration  get  th§ 
better  of  your  good  judgment.  You  give 
the  picture  too  much  space,  or  otherwise 
play  it  up  beyond  its  true  value  con- 
sidering the  stock  on  hand,  etc.,  and 
before  you  know  it  you  are  sold  out  of 
that  item  and  are  up  against  the  un- 
profitable task  of  refunding  money.  Un- 
less care  and  judgment  are  used  in  the 
first  use  of  color  illustrations,  this  con- 
dition is  apt  to  occur. 

Methods  of  Illustrating. 

We  have  come  to  the  conclusion  that 
photographic  illustration  is  the  best 
from  all  viewpoints.  An  artist  with  a 
facile  pen  or  a  magic  brush  can  turn 
out  some  strong  pictures  that,  at  first 
glance,  appear  to  be  most  wonderful 
sales  stimulators,  but,  if  you  are  not  on 
your  guard,  your  illustrations  prepared 
by  an  artist  are  likely  to  contain  some 
points  that  may  bring  unfavorable 
situations.  Actual  photographs,  taken 
under  normal  conditions,  and  retouched 
only  enough  to  make  them  suitable  for 
the  use  of  the  photo-engraver,  are,  in 
my  opinion,  the  best  for  use  in  our  line. 
There  are  occasions  when  the  line  draw- 
ing best  fits  the  needs  and  purposes  of 
the  catalogue  builder.  At  other  times 
a  zinc  etching  of  a  silver  print  fills  the 
job  best.  Specific  cases  call  for  specific 
methods.  In  general,  however,  I  be- 
lieve that  the  half-tones  made  from 
photographs  are  far  the  most  effective 
illustrations  in  our  line. 

To  return  to  the  subject  of  this  dis- 
cussion: Picture,  if  you  can,  in  your 
mind's  eye,  a  mail  order  seed  catalogue 
minus  all  pictures  and  you  at  once  get 
some  conception  of  the  value  of  illus- 
trations to  our  printed  sales  efforts. 
Selfishly,  I  could  profitably  wish  for  the 
adoption  among  you  of  no  illustrations 
in  your  catalogues.  I  promise  you, 
though,  that  I  would  keep  mine. 


PROVIDENCE,  R.  I. 


The  Market. 

Funeral  work  furnished  the  only  ac- 
tivity in  florists'  circles  here  last  week 
and  even  this  was  barely  sufficient  to 
use  up  the  supplies  on  hand.  Carna- 
tions .are  quite  small,  but  as  asters  have 
not  yet  put  in  an  appearance  to  replace 
them,  what  carnations  do  reach  the 
market  are  eagerly  snapped  up  at  $2 
to  $4.  Roses  are  plentiful  and  are 
bringing  $2  to  .$10  per  hundred.  Gla- 
dioli are  increasing  in  supply  and  bring 
$1  per  dozen  readily. 

Various  Notes. 

For  the  first  time  in  the  history  of 
the  trade  the  downtown  retail  florists 
of  Providence  have  entered  into  a  co- 
operative movement  for  the  early  clos- 
ing of  their  stores  every  Wednesday 
afternoon  during  July  and  August,  at 
1  o'clock.  The  movement  became  ef- 
fective July  17,  the  following  concerns 
being  parties  to  the  agreement:  Wil- 
liam A.  Bowers,  Hogg  Greenhouses, 
Johnston  Bros.,  T.  J.  Johnston  &  Co., 
Macnair,  Smith  the  Florist  and  the 
Westminster  Greenhouses. 

Henry  Phillips,  of  Academy  avenue, 
has  returned  from  a  trip  to  New  York. 

The  Quidnick  Greenhouses,  Inc.,  at 
Quidnick,  have  commenced  the  erection 
of  a  new  greenhouse. 

Swan  Peterson,  of  East  Providence, 
had  a  large  funeral  last  week,  including 
two  large  gates  ajar.

NEW    EARLY-FLOWERING    or   WINTER-BLOOMING 

Giant  Pansies 

An  entirely  new  and  distinct  strain  of  Pansies.  The  main  advantage 
of  these  new  Pansies  over  all  hitherto  existing  Pansies  is  the  extreme 
earliness  of  flowering  and  its  unusual  hardiness,  which  enables  them  to 
withstand  quite  severe  winters,  and  to  bloom  right  on  into  the  summer. 
Sown  at  the  same  time  as  other  Pansies,  they  uegin  flowering  the  early  part 
of  March,  or  as  soon  as  the  snow  is  off  the  ground,  many  times  having  four 
or  five  large  flowers  to  a  plant,  when  all  other  Pansies  are  only  showing 
bads.  The  flowers  are  large,  well  formed  and  fragrant.  They  are  highly 
recommended  for  Autumn  planting  on  graves,  and  for  very  early  bedding, 
as  well  as  for  early  cut  flowers.

CONDITIONS  IN  CANADA. 

"I  do  not  know  how  things  are  going 
in  the  States  except  from  what  I  read, 
as  I  have  not  been  over  since  1914," 
writes  John  Nicol,  of  Owen  Sound,  Ont., 
"but  I  can  assure  you  that  the  situ- 
ation  here    is   not    all    smooth    sailing. 


Ooal  last  winter  cost  $14  per  ton  of 
2,000  pounds,  soft  coal  at  that.  This 
winter's  prospects  as  to  price  look  even 
worse,  if  we  get  any  coal  at  all.  I 
often  look  back  to  my  early  days  in 
Jersey  City  and  wonder  what  the  men 
of  thirty  or  forty  years  ago,  such  as 
Peter    Henderson,    Julius    Boehrs,    my 


own  father  and  many  others,  would 
think  if  they  could  come  back  and  tee 
the  change.  In  those  days  hard  sgg 
coal  was  $5  per  gross  ton  and  all  kinds 
of  labor  was  to  be  had  at  $9  per  week. 
I  am  afraid  they  would  not  enjoj  their 
return."  '     '

RETAIL  STORE  MANAGEMENT 


WHAT  THE  LEADERS  IN  THE  TRADE  ARE  DOING 


BRINCHNO  IN  NEW  BUYEBS. 


~y 


Tele^aph  Display  Draws. 

When  the,  comparatively  speaking, 
quiet  summer  months  bring  rest  and 
leisure  to  the  retail  florist,  he  may,  if 
he  has  not  had  too  much  business  the 
rest  of  the  year,  use  the  spare  time  now 
at  his  disposal  to  pick  up  some  extra 
business,  add  some  new  customers  to 
his  list  and,  incidentally,  increase  his 
profits.  The  material  for  accomplishing 
this  is  ready  at  his  hand  and  the  results 
have  been  demonstrated  frequently. 
The  subject  of  the  telegraph  delivery 
of  flowers  is  still  so  novel  that  the 
florist  may  use  it  as  a  drawing  card  to 
bring  new  buyers  into  his  shop  if  he  will 
devote  the  necessary  energy  to  its  ad- 
vertisement. 

By  advertisement,  in  this  instance,  is 
not  merely  meant  the  insertion  of  copy 
in  the  local  newspaper.  That  is  always, 
of  course,  effective  toa  certain  extent. 
But  there  are  additional  methods  of 
publicity  which  have  their  own  value. 
Chief  among  these,  as  has  been  demon- 
strated time  and  again,  is  window  dis- 
play. This  is  a  means  of  vividly  pre- 
senting the  idea  of  telegraph  delivery 
to  the  public  that  achieves  notable  re- 
sults. Examples  of  it  have  been  given 
in  these  columns  in  a  number  of  notably 
successful  cases. 

Accompaniments. 

To  accompany  the  window  and  re- 
enforce  its  drawing  power,  letters  and 
newspaper  advertising  are  used.  The 
combination    of    the    various    publicity 


mediums  seems  to  act  more  forcefully 
than  any  one  of  them  does,  proportion- 
ately, alone.  The  results  at  a  season 
when  people  are  not  buying  heavily  of 
flowers  seems  sometimes  surprising. 

In  view  of  this  fact,  it  pays  florists 
at  this  season  to  undertake  the  featur- 
ing of  their  telegraph  service.  They 
have  the  time  and  the  necessary  effort 
to  spare,  and  some  extra  business  will 
be  welcome  The  material  for  a  suitable 
window  display  is  not  costly;  indeed, 
the  total  outlay  of  florists  who  have 
made  such  a  brief  campaign,  if  it  may 
be  called  so,  has  been  remarkably  small 
for  the  returns  yielded. 

An  Example. 

To  indicate  the  opportunity  which 
awaits  florists  who  wish  to  answer  its 
knock,  the  case  may  be  cited  of  L. 
Turner  Sons,  at  Kenosha,  Wis.  During 
the  first  two  weeks  of  July  they  staged 
the  window  display  shown  in  the  illus- 
tration on  this  page.  In  the  left-hand 
window,  miniature  telegraph  poles 
planted  in  lycopodium  and  moss  led  from 
Kenosha,  conspicuously  marked  on  a 
colored  map,  to  the  leading  cities  in 
the  United  States.  Telegraph  instru- 
ments likewise  appeared  in  a  prominent 
place.  Flower  boxes  bearing  labels  and 
placards  gave  further  reenforcement  to 
the  idea  of  the  display.  In  the  right- 
hand  window  a  large  poster  explained 
the  telegraph  system  of  florists  and  with 
it  appeared  telegraph  poles,  instru- 
ments, boxes  and  placards  as  in  the 
other  window. 

The  window  won  newspaper  notice, 
being    described    in    the    Kenosha    Eve- 


ning News.  With  such  description  went, 
naturally  enough,  the  reporter 's  explana- 
tion of  how  the  florists'  telegraph  sys- 
tem works,  the  best  of  printed  pub- 
licity. The  practice  of  L.  Turner  Sons 
of  calling  their  store  "The  F.  T.  D. 
Shop"  aided  in  this  campaign.  This 
phrase,  appearing  on  stationery  and  pub- 
licity matter,  keeps  the  suggestion  of 
wire  orders  constantly  before  patrons. 
In  the  newspapers  at  the  time  of  the 
window  display  appeared  a  striking  ad- 
vertisement of  over  six  inches  on  two 
columns.  Heavy  type  at  the  top  said: 
"Read  what  a  Flowergram  did  for  a 
Poor  Lonesome  Wife."  Below  was  a 
reproduction  of  feminine  handwriting 
on  hotel  stationery,  which  read  as  fol- 
lows: 

You   Darling  Hubby: 

That  trip  seemed  perfectly  endless!  And  when 
I  got  to  my  room  here — talk  alK)ut  lonesome — 
I  thought   I  would  die! 

But  now  I  have  such  sweet  company!  I 
hadn't  been  here  five  minutes  when  your  Flower- 
gram  arrived  and  those  precious  blossoms  made 
me  feel  that  the  thoughtful  Dear  who  sent 
them  is  very  near  to  me  indeed.  Oh,  I'm  so 
happy!  Who  but  you  would  think  so  unceasingly 
of  my  comfort?     A   thousand   thanks! 

Shall  write  a  long  letter  tonight  to  tell  you 
all  about  my  trip. 

Faithfully    yours, 

^  Betty. 

How  such  a  campaign  works  is  best 
indicated  by  L.  Turner  Sons'  own  state- 
ment: 

The  Bestdts. 

"It  was  really  surprising  to  see  what 
interest  was  shown  in  our  windows. 
People  came  into  the  store  continually 
to  ask  questions,  and  to  have  the  exact 
working  of  the  florfsts'  telegraph  de- 
livery explained  to  them.  Many  had  a 
hazy  idea,  but  did  not  know  definitely 
how  they  could  have  flowers  delivered 
in  other  cities. 

"The  number  of  telegraph  orders 
taken  in  our  store  during  the  last  few 
weeks  has  run  very  high,  especially  con- 
sidering that  the  quiet  season  for  the 
florist  is  now  beginning.  And  we  are 
interested  to  notice  that  people  are  com- 
ing into  our  store  to  send  flowers  by 
telegraph  whom  we  have  never  seen  in 
it  before.  We  really  feel  that  our 
telegraph  windows  have  been  more  than 
a  success."

Business  Through  Education. 

A  great  deal  of  space  in  these  col- 
umns has  been  devoted  of  late  to  the 
necessity  of  educating  the  public  in 
new  and  greater  uses  of  flowers.  In  this 
article  I  am  going  to  stop  for  a  moment 
to  consider  just  what  education  means. 
Naturally,  the  first  thing  one  does  is  to 
consult  that  well  known  authority  on 
the  subject,  Noah  Webster.  His  defini- 
tion of  education  is  as  follows:  "The 
act,  process  or  result  of  educating;  the 
systematic  training  of  the  moral  and 
intellectual  faculties."  This  is  a  quite 
simple  definition  of  the  word.  Only 
recently,  however,  it  was  my  privilege 
to  listen  to  a  sermon  delivered  by  that

Scotland's  Only  Member  F.  T.  D. 

well  known  Scotch  minister,  Dr.  Kobert 
D.  Watson,  of  New  York  city,  on  educa- 
tion, Dr,  Watson  took  his  definition  of 
the  word  from  a  short  sentence  found 
in  the  seventeenth  verse  of  the  first 
chapter  of  Isaiah,  "Learn  to  do  well." 

When  we  look  at  education  in  the 
light  of  Dr.  Watson's  interpretation,  it 
becomes  exceedingly  simple.  As  applied 
to  publicity  in  the  florists'  business,  it 
resolves  itself  into  just  this:  Each 
florist  must  devote  serious  thought  to 
the  subject;  he  must  think  out  the  best 
means  of  reaching  the  public,  have  some- 
thing definite  to  offer,  and  make  this 
offer  in  a  concise,  intelligent  and  truth- 
ful manner. 

This  article  is  not  a  treatise  on  edu- 
cation, but  rather  a  few  hints  on  all 
that  the  word  implies,  which  may  be 
capitalized  for  the  use  of  the  florists 
throughout  this  country.  In  other 
words,  it  is  the  object  of  the  writer  to 
get  florists  to  think  along  the  lines 
suggested. 

Developing  Telegraph  Delivery. 

Now,  the  phase  of  the  question  dis- 
cussed in  this  article  is  education  of  the 
public  by  means  of  the  telegraph  de- 
livery of  flowers.  In  this  case  there 
•ire  two  distinct  classes  to  be  educated, 
"•"St,  the  florist  himself  and,  second, 
the  general  public.  The  first  point  I 
■wish  to  emphasize  is  that  the  telegraph 
delivery  of  flowers  is  not  an  experiment; 
Jt  has  long  since  passed  that  stage. 
Today  it  makes  the  florists'  business 
one  gigantic  corporation,  doing  business 
in    every   city,    town    and   hamlet   that

Inside  Out 
Or  Outside  In 

Some  folks  think  that  first  building  the  insides  of  their 
business,  is  the  best  way  to  get  the  inside  on  business 
building. 

Other  lolks  think  that  if  you  want  to  business  build  a  busi- 
ness from  the  inside,  you  must  first  build  it  from  the 
outside. 
The  more  outsides,  the  more  insides. 

Which  fact  I  am  going  to  prove  to  you  next  week  by  so 
simple  a  thing  as  a  piece  of  wood. 

Which  very  piece  of  wood  is,  in  truth,  responsible  for  my 
doing  this  advertising. 

Suke,  the  Jap,  says: 

"Why  you  talk  piece  wood,  when  what  you  want  talk  is 
more  business  get? 

"In  Japan,  if  we  want  something,  we  make  go  for  that 
want  thing. 
"You  funny  man. 

"When  you  want  get  more  F.  T.  D,  business,  you  talk  about 
piece  ink  drink  paper,  or  piece  fool  wood.    Why  is?" 

And  of  course^l  couldn't  explain,  because  I  am  not  sure 
I  know  myself.

a  telegraph  wire  reaches,  either  in  the 
United  States  or  Canada.  Did  you  ever 
stop  to  consider  that  a  florist  may  be  in 
business,  we  will  say,  in  Chicago  and 
that  when  a  customer  enters  his  es- 
tablishment to  order  a  $25  or  $50  funeral 
offering,  that  order  can  be  delivered  in 
New  York,  Montreal,  San  Francisco, 
New  Orleans  or  Atlanta  in  a  few  hours, 
and  the  florist  in  Chicago  will  make  the 


same  net  profit  on  it  as  though  it  were 
delivered  next  door  to  his  own  place  of 
business? 

There  is  just  one  other  system  that  I 
know  of  which  in  any  way  approaches 
it.  You  may  be  a  long  distance  from 
home  and  become  stranded  for  funds; 
by  a  similar  system  you  can  have  money 
telegraphed  to  you,  but  consider  the 
trouble    connected    with    this.      In    tho

first  place,  you  must  get  into  communi- 
cation with  your  home  town,  your 
friends  must  deposit  the  amount  for- 
warded with  the  local  telegraph  office, 
and  then,  to  receive  the  money,  you 
must  be  identified.  All  this  takes  time 
and  trouble.  Not  so  the  telegraph  de- 
livery of  flowers.  You  simply  go  into 
any  florist's  store,  select  what  you  want, 
pay  for  it  and^  so  far  as  the  purchaser 
is  concerned,  the   transaction  is  closed. 

Use  the  Opportunity. 

Now,  the  surprising  thing  about  all 
of  this  is  the  small  percentage  of  flo- 
rists who  undertake  to  make  the  general 
public  aware  of  its  benefits.  Yet  this 
is  a  form  of  publicity  that  will  pay 
definite  returns.  This  brings  us  to  the 
question  of  what  is  the  best  form  of 
publicity  to  use  in  this  branch  of  the 
Inisiness,  and  here  is  where  a  little 
thought  and  common  sense  will  prove 
valuable.  In  the  telegraph  delivery  of 
flowers  you  are  not  interested  in  just 
your  immediate  locality  for  business; 
your  field  has  become  the  entire  country. 
This  necessitates,  of  course,  your  mak- 
ing yourself  and  your  facilities  known 
to  the  trade  throughout  the  United 
States  and  Canada.

NOVEL  FLORAL  FLOAT. 

The  spectators  at  the  Fourth  of  July 
parade  at  Columbus,  Neb.,  were  treated 
to  a  novel  sight  when  the  float  of  A.  C. 
Anderson,  which  won  the  first  prize, 
wended  its  way  down  the  street.  The 
first  thing  they  saw  was  a  large  sign 
extending  the  whole  length  of  the  float, 
with  the  inscription,  "  'Say  It  with 
Flowers' — Anderson's  Flowers."  On 
the  float  were  latticed  arches  covered 
with  Boston  ivy  and  pink  and  white 
roses  and  carnations.  But  tlic  main 
and  most  unusual  attraction  was  a 
bridal  party  —  bride,  bridegroom,  as- 
sistants, minister,  flower  girls  and  all.

The  local   growers  say  that   stock   is

grades. 

Few  carnations  are  now  coming  in.  A 
few  asters  are  taking  their  place.  The 
aster  crop  with  local  growers  depends 
upon  the  good  rains  which  arc  much 
hoped  for. 

Gladioli  are  arriving  in  fine  shape 
from  those  growers  who  have  irrigating 
systems.  These  are  having  a  great  de- 
mand and  x)riccs  are  holding  up  better 
than  in  any  previous  years.  Larkspur, 
daisies,  cornflowers  and  much  other  out-

The  market  had  a  fine  supply  of 
greens  of  all  kinds  during  the  week, 
while  the  demand  was  excellent. 

Publicity  Committee. 

The  Florists'  Publicity  Committee 
met  at  headquarters,  1316  Pine  street, 
July  13,  with  a  full  attendance,  and 
transacted  a  great  deal  of  urgent  busi- 
ness. 

The  "Say  It  with  Flowers"  night  at 
the  open-air  opera  in  Forest  park  was 
left  in  the  hands  of  a  committee  of  four, 
with  full  power  to  act.  Fifty  box  seats 
were  subscribed  for  by  members  of  the 
committee.  Anyone  in  the  trade  wish- 
ing to  procure  tickets  should  see  Frank 
Windier. 

It  was  decided  to  furnish  red,  white

Harry  Schlechter,  of  the  W.  C.  Smith 
Wholesale  Floral  Co.,  is  taking  a  week's 
vacation  trip  in  the  western  part  of 
Missouri. 

Speaking  of  George  Sisler,  leading 
batsman  and  player  in  the  American 
League,  the  trade  is  all  pulling  for  him 
since  it  became  known  that  Mrs.  Sisler 
is  the  daughter  of  Charles  Holznagle, 
one  of  the  leading  florists  in  Detroit. 

Mrs.  M.  Pelletier  and  her  daughter 
contemplate  a  trip  to  Denver  before  re- 
turning home  from  the  convention. 

The  duck  pond  window  display  of  the 
C.  Young  &  Sons  Co.  is  an  attractive 
spot,  daily  drawing  crowds  to  watch  the 
young  ducks  in  their  usual  pranks.

Hoerr  is  a  brother  of  Louis  A.  Hoerr, 
one  of  the  leading  bankers  and  manu- 
facturers of  St.  Louis. 

John  and  Nick  Hinimer,  two  of  the 
best  known  growers  of  the  old  school 
around  St.  Louis,  have  purchased  the 
land  and  greenhouses  of  Hugo  Gross. 
Mr.  Gross  has  been  in  business  for  over 
twenty  years  and  was  considered  one 
of  the  best  violet  and  sweet  pea  growers 
in  the  vicinity  of  St.  Louis.  Himmer 
Bros,  now  have  over  thirty  thousand 
feet  of  glass.  Their  stock  is  handled

M.  E.  Carter,  manager  of  the  W,  L. 
Rock  Flower  Co.,  is  attending  the  an- 
nual two  weeks'  encampment  of  the 
Seventh  regiment,  national  guard,  at 
Nevada,  Mo. 

The  Rosery  is  cutting  a  good  crop  of 
gladioli  from  its  own  garden. 

Samuel  Murray  has  some  trachelium 
in  bloom,  the  seed  of  which  was  brought 
by  W.  B.  Keid  from  the  Royal  Botanical 
Gardens,  at  Edinburgh,  Scotland.  Mr. 
Eeid  was  in  the  British  flying  service 
during  the  war  and  after  his  discharge 
visited  Scotland  and  some  of  the  other 
countries  in  Europe.  Mr.  Murray  is 
also  showing  a  beautiful  pink  gladiolus, 
Prince  of  Wales.

Columbia  roses.  The  casket  cover  was 
of  lavender  and  dark  red  buddleia. 
centaurea  and   roses.

Tlie  Market. 

The  market  last  w^eek,  so  far  as  good 
grades  were  concerned,  was  fine;  in 
fact,  some  days  good  stock  was  hard 
to  obtain  and  select  stock  in  all  lines 
cleaned  up  vccll.  Roses,  of  course,  had 
the  call  and  there  was  a  large  quantity 
lo  be  had.  Columbia  was  really  fine. 
Premier,  with  some  growers,  is  holding 
up  well.  Double  White  Killarney  also 
seems  to  be  a  good  summer  variety. 
Good  stock  of  these  varieties  was  sold 
at  $12  per  hundred  and  more  could  have 
been  sold  if  they  had  been  available. 
Carnations  July  15  brought  $5  per  hun- 
dred. Good  gladioli  bring  $1.50  and  $2 
per  dozen,  Easter  lilies  $12.50  per  hun- 
dred and  asters  are  as  high  as  $6. 

These  are  all  first  quality  goods,  but 
there  is  not  enough  of  this  quality  of 
stock  to  meet  the  demand.  There  is 
more  this  year  than  ever  before,  but 
the  demand  has  grown  faster  than  the 
supply.  Tliore  are  large  numbers  of  roses

There  is  plenty  of  green  goods  and 
everyone  is  doing  a  good,  steady  busi-

stock  could  be  used.  I  have  not  spoken

tlic  history  of  the  club  and,  as  the 
present  administration  is  drawing  to 
a  close,  let  us  review  some  of  the  things 
this  administration  of  young  men  has 
accomplished  that  have  been  of  benefit 
to  the  entire  trade. 

In  the  first  place,  the  club  has  never 
been  in  better  financial  condition.  One 
of  the  first  things  promised  by  the  ad- 
ministration was  to  secure  a  sufficient 
number  of  members  in  the  club  to  be 
come  affiliated  with  the  S.  A.  F.  in 
order  to  give  us  representation  on  the 
board  of  directors  of  that  organization; 
this  was  accomplished  in  the  early  part 
of  the  present  year.  A  local  advertising 
campaign  was  launched  which  has 
proved  a  success  in  every  respect;  this 
campaign  is  known  as  that  of  the  Asso- 
ciated Florists  of  Baltimore  and  the 
committee,  .Joseph  Merritt,  chairman; 
Robert  W.  Johnston,  C.  Harry  Wagner 
and  Thomas  Stevenson,  with  the  assist- 
ance of  the  Deatel  Advertising  Serv- 
ice, has  done  more  to  bring  the  florists'

montlis  it  has  been  at  it  than  any  of 
us  thought  i)ossible.  At  the  last  meet-

that  (luring  the  months  of  July  ami 
August  it  intended  to  let  down  a  little 
on  the  advertisements,  but  the  fact 
has  been  demonstrated  that  the  method, 
both  in  financing  the  campaign  and  the 
manner  in  which  the  advertisements 
have  been  written,  is  the  proj)er  one, 
and  the  committee  will  be  ready  to  go

untiring  in  their  efforts.  William  F. 
Ekas,  the  president,  can  look  back  over 
the  year's  work  with  pride.  There  are 
two  months  of  the  year  left  and  into 
these  will  be  crowded  the  best  things 
yet.  For  instance,  a  local  of  the  Na- 
tional Flower  Growers'  Association  will 
be  formed;  at  the  next  meeting  dele- 
gates to  the  Cleveland  meeting  will  be 
selected  with  this  object  in  view.  The 
year's  work  goes  to  show  what  can  be 
accomplished  with  all  of  us  pulling  to- 
gether for  a   common   cause.       Tate. 


ARE  YOUR  THOUGHTS  BBOAD? 

Many  a  man  succeeds  in  spite  of  him- 
self, and  probably  a  good  many  of  us 
are  still  doing  business  as  florists  who, 
if  we  had  to  do  business  in  other  lines 
more  competitivS,  might  not  be  able  to 
endure. 

Probably  for  the  best  interest  of  the 
trade  generally,  it  might  be  better  for 
those  concerned  to  have  had  a  little  of 
the  real  hard  knocks  before  attaining 
success,  to  serve  as  examples  later  in 
life.  The  need  of  doing  things  in  man- 
ful fashion,  when  the  occasion  demands, 
has  been  told  of  such  men  as  Mark 
Twain,  Charles  Dickens  and  Walter 
Scott,  who  began  to  WTite  most  vigor- 
ously after  being  driven  to  it  by  sheer 
necessity.  Many  a  man  begins  to  realize 
the  importance  of  doing  things  only 
after  being  forced  by  dire  needs  to  do

tliat  which  would  ordinarily  have  been 
found  impossible.  He  suddenly  deter- 
mines to  do  things  and  actually  does  bet- 
ter than  he  dreamed. 

Many  of  our  florists  have  been  going 
along  wonderfully  well  the  last  few- 
years  in  spite  of  the  fact  that  for  a  time 
tiiere  was  a  possibility  of  a  coal  restric- 
tion as  a  war  requisite,  when  it  seemed 
as  though  the  finish  of  the  greenhouse 
man  were  sounded,  and  many  a  grower 
had  visions  of  a  life's  work  almost  gone. 
Another  group  has  felt  the  justice  or 
injustice  of  Quarantine  37,  and  the  out- 
look was  not  bright  at  the  time  of  its 
ad()j)tion.  Then  came  the  frequent  wail 
of  the  glutted  market  and  several  other 
problems  that  obviously  need  not  be 
mentioned,  which  caused  many  hours  of 
deep  concern.  But,  thank  the  stars,  all 
these  have  been  overcome. 

During  a  period  of  two  years  there 
has  been  going  on  an  honest-to-goodness 
publicity  campaign,  in  which  all  broad- 
thinking  men  were  permitted  to  partici- 
pate. The  first  year  $50,000  was  asked 
for  to  carry  on  a  national  campaign,  and 
we  almost  reached  that  sum.  The  second 
year  $100,000  was  asked  for,  but  w« 
have  not  received  up  to  now  one-half 
of  it. 

"What  clear-thinking  men  in  our  busi- 
ness are  doing  about  it,  I  am  at  a  loss  to 
know  what  to  say,  as  the  amount  al- 
ready subscribed  from  the  trade  gener-

Do  you  appreciate  tlie  worth  of  your 
business  beyond  your  own  town  limits? 
Or  can  you  not  see  the  development  of 
a  bigger  and  better  business  with  more 
publicity  properly  applied  as  a  decid- 
ing factor  to  help  us  keep  moving  on- 
ward? Or  will  you  permit  the  good 
work  started  to  be  shut  off  for  lack  of 
money  to  put  the  national  slogan,  "Say 
It  with  Flowers,"  before  the  public,  so 
that  it  will  keep  working  for  every- 
body connected  with  flowers? 

Make  out  a  check  and  send  it  to  Sec- 
retary John  Young,  so  that  by  the  "fall 
your  committee  will  have  a  working 
capital  to  lay  out  a  program  capable  of 
bringing  results  beyond  the  value  of 
the  subscriptions  received.

INDIANA  FLORISTS  MEET. 

The  July  meeting  of  the  Indiana  State 
Florists'  Association  was  held  at  Mad- 
ison, Ind.,  Wednesday,  July  14.  The  In- 
dianapolis delegation  left  Wednesday 
morning  at  8  a.  m.  and  enjoyed  a  pleas- 
ant trip  through  attractive  scenic  coun- 
try. The  ride  to  Madison  is  unusual  be- 
cause of  a  fall  of  six  feet  to  every  100 
feet  of  distance. 

L.  E.  Hitz,  Madison,  had  arranged  au- 
tomobile trips  through  all  parts  of  Mad- 
ison. The  city,  because  it  is  the  second 
oldest  in  the  state,  is  unusually  inter- 
esting. In  the  afternoon  Hanover  Col- 
lege and  the  Cragmont  asylum  were  vis- 
ited. A  ferry  boat  was  converted  into 
a  pleasure  boat  and  a  trip  was  made 
down  the  Ohio  river.  On  the  Kentucky 
side  of  the  river  a  large  warehouse  was 
seen  which  contained  15,000  barrels  of 
whisky  and,  needless  to  say,  there  were 
many  dry  tongues,  but  it  was  a  case  of: 
"Whisky,  whisky  everywhere,  but  not 
a  drop  to  drink."  In  the  evening  a 
chicken  supper  was  served  at  John 
Hitz's  farm,  which  was  followed  by  a 
swim  in  the  river  and  a  visit  to  ClefEty 
Falls. 

The  business  meeting  was  a  short  one. 
Fred  Boss,  Greenwood;  Frazier  Hitz, 
North  Madison;  Matthew  Schlitz,  La- 
porte;  Theodore  D.  Kuebler,  Jr.,  Indian- 
apolis, and  John  Kilcoyn,  Indianapolis, 
were  elected  to  membership.  Irwin  Ber- 
termann  gave  a  short  talk  concerning 
the  visit  of  the  Florists'  Telegraph  De- 
livery Association  to  Indianapolis  in  Oc- 
tober. The  association  endorsed  the  Na- 
tional Flower  Growers'  Association  and 
appc^ted  five  delegates  to  attend  the 
organisation   meeting   of   that    associa- 


Tha  lizM  given  here  are  canried  in  ■took,  in

The  Florists^  Review 


Jdlz  2t,  1980 


The  Illinois  State  Nurserymen's  Asso- 
ciation will  hold  its  summer  meeting  at 
the  University  of  Illinois,  Urbana,  the 
first  week  in  August. 

The  Elliott  Nursery  Co.,  Pittsburgh, 
has  purchased  seventy-five  acres  of  land 
near  Aspinwall,  Pa.,  since  the  Springdale 
place  has  become  too  small  to  take  care 
of  the  company's  increasing  business. 

If  the  American  Railway  Express  Co. 
signs  the  proposed  contract  with  the  rail- 
roads, the  increase  paid  the  latter  by  the 
company  will  probably  be  from  twenty  to 
twenty-five  per  cent,  auguring  an  early 
rise  in  rates  to  the  express  shipper. 

The  official  roster  of  the  Clinton  Falls 
Nursery  Co.,  at  Owatonna,  Minn.,  is  as 
follows:  President  and  manager,  Thomas 
E.  Cashman;  vice-president,  M.  B.  Cash- 
man;  treasurer,  J.  E.  Cashman;  cashier, 
J.  A.  Cieszinski.  The  company  operates 
125,000  feet  of  glass  in  its  greenhouse 
department. 

SALES  AND  PSODUCTION. 

*'The  majority  of  nurserymen,"  said 
one  of  them,  "can  grow  a  good  tree  at 
a  minimum  cost,  but  not  many  have 
the  business  sagacity  to  advertise  and 
sell  their  product  within  the  territory 
tributary  to  their  nursery.  This  fac- 
ulty cannot  be  exercised  by  suggestion, 
or  at  a  moment's  notice,  but  must  be 
acquired  by  the  individual  nurseryman 
by  exercising  the  same  amount  of  at- 
tention and  effort  in  this  branch  of  his 
business  that  he  expends  in  the  growing 
of  his  stock." 


TIME  FOR  GOOD  JUDGMENT. 

"When  we  experience  a  season  of 
good  demand  and  our  annual  brush  pile 
is  of  smaller  proportions,"  a  nursery- 
man told  a  convention  of  his  fellows 
recently,  "our  spirits  rise  to  a  high 
degree  —  things  look  good  —  and  the 
average  nurseryman  immediately  bulls 
the  market  by  increasing  his  own  plant- 
ing one  and  sometimes  twofold,  little 
realizing  that  every  other  nurseryman 
in  the  business  is  probably  of  the  same 
mind,  and  that  these  same  conditions 
stimulate  the  amateur  nurseryman,  or 
one  not  regularly  in  the  business,  to  the 
same  degree.  As  a  result,  the  supply 
of  trees  is  within  two  years  abnormallj' 
increased,  invariably  far  in  excess  of 
the  demand. 

' '  When  times  in  the  nursery  business 
are  good,  it  behooves  us  to  exercise 
good,  conservative  business  judgment, 
and   in    trade    organizations   this   topic 


should  always  constitute  an  important 
matter  for  consideration  on  the  program. 
For  our  own  mutual  benefit  and  pro- 
tection we  should  freely  impart  to  one 
another  our  experience,  observations 
and  opinions  of  the  future  prospects  of 
the  business,  a  matter  concerning  which 
nurserymen  are  always  reticent,  to  their 
own  cost." 


CREDIT  LOSES  CASH. 

"Nurserymen  are  notoriously  lax  in 
giving  credit  to  Tom,  Dick  and  Harry," 
is  the  opinion  of  J.  E.  Bergtholdt,  sec- 
retary and  manager  of  the  Silva-Berg- 
tholdt  Co.,  Newcastle,  Cal. 

' '  When  you  have  put  your  cold  cash 
into  a  tree  for  two  years  to  grow  it 
and  have  put  your  cold  cash  into  ad- 
vertising and  selling  that  tree,  there 
is  no  reason  why  you,  as  a  nurseryman, 
or  farmer  of  trees,  should  not  be  paid 
in  cash,  the  same  as  a  farmer  in  grain 
or  livestock,  when  you  deliver  your  prod- 
uct. Every  time  that  you  sell  a  tree 
on  credit,  and  for  every  dollar  that 
you  give  credit,  you  inevitably  assume 
a    per    cent    of   loss    in    the    additional

"In  our  business  we  have  placed 
sixty-five  per  cent  of  our  sales  under

SEATTLE    NOTES. 

[Continual  from  pRgo  6* J 

The  extreme  heat  affected  the  qualitjr 
of  the  carnations  delivered  for  several 
days,  the  usual  staying  qualitjr  being 
absent,  but  the  cut,  as  a  whole,  is  show- 
ing steady  improvement.  There  is  a 
considerable  increase  in  acreage  te  be 
seen  this  year. 

Violas  are  scarce  and  the  same  is  true 
of  cut  pansies.  Bedding  stock  is  about 
through  and  the  potted  offerings  now 
consist  of  a  few  cinerarias,  primroses, 
geraniums  and  spring  flower  combina- 
tions. 

Various  Notes. 

Ralph  Richardson,  of  Stuber  &  Rich- 
ardson, played  host  to  more  tham  forty 
growers  and  dealers  in  honor  of  the 
birthday  of  Joseph  Stuber,  his  partner, 
last  week.  The  affair  was  held  on  the 
lawn  at  the  greenhouses  and  started 
with  a  dinner  at  4  p.  m.  A  feature  of 
this  party  was  the  presentation  to  Mr. 
Stuber,  on  behalf  of  those  present, 
of  a  diamond  scarf  pin  and  a  set  of 
diamond  cuff  links,  Thomas  Wylie  mak- 
ing the  presentation  speech.  Cards  fol- 
lowed until  10  p.  m.,  when  a  supper  was 
served,  and  then  there  were  more  cards 
until  the  next  morning. 

Andrew  Gerard,  of  the  Hoxton  Co., 
Yftkima,  was  a  visitor  last  week.

Ove  Gnatt  Co.,  Laporte,  Ind.,  and  A.  C. 
Aldridge,  of  the  M.  Rice  Co.,  Philadel- 
phia. 

Thomas  Wylie  reports  a  splendid  sale 
for  his  Myrus  Phylleen  lily,  which  he 
introduced  last  year.  It  has  been  ef- 
fective in  funeral  pieces  and  formal 
decorations,  the  odd  color  effect  being 
its  greatest  attraction. 

The  heaviest  cut  of  orchids  from  any 
local  source  is  coming  to  Bosaia  Bros, 
and  for  several  weeks  this  firm  has 
been  supplying  practically  the  whole 
city's  needs. 

The  Woodlawn  Flower  Shop  handled 
the  decorations  at  the  Queen  City  Yacht 
club  for  the  reception  to  Secretary  of 
the  Navy  Josephus  Daniels  and  Admiral 
Bodman.  The  centerpiece  was  a  small 
model  of  a  yacht  in  a  tank  banked  by 
bamboo  shoots,  surrounded  by  yellow 
snapdragons,  pink  sweet  peas,  gypso- 
phila  and  small  palms.  In  the  wall  al- 
coves were  placed  baskets  of  outdoor 
flowers. 

Jack  Sahlia  has  given  up  his  location 
at  Kent  and  is  looking  for  a  new  place 
to  establish  his  gardens.  He  has  sold 
his  new  carnation  to  Stuber  &  Richard- 
son, who  will  offer  it  next  season. 

The  Hollywood  Gardens  have  handled 
a  number  of  big  wedding  decorations 
of  late  and  several  big  decorations  for 
social  affairs.  This  firm  is  bringing  in 
some  of  the  finest  gladioli  and  a  nice 
cut  of  snapdragons. 

Miss  Laura  Bosaia  is  in  San  Fran- 
cisco for  her  vacation.  Walter  Carlson 
has  been  added  to  the  force  and  will 
take  charge  of  the  bookkeeping.  Henry 
Day,  manager  of  the  Orpheum  Floral 
Co.,  has  been  filling  in  here  for  a  few 
days  in  the  absence  of  part  of  the  regu- 
lar force  on  their  vacations. 

Fred  Eowe,  of  McCoy's,  reports  fine 
receipts  of  bachelor's  buttons  and  other 
small  summer  flowers,  with  a  ready  sale 
for  small  baskets.  Some  fine  palms 
have  been  delivered  to  this  firm  lately. 

Thomas  Luke,  with  Max  Smith,  Port- 
land, was  in  Seattle  a  few  days  last 
week  and  went  to  Victoria  with  Harry 
Crouch,  of  the  Woodlawn  Flower  Shop. 
Business  and  pleasure  were  combined  on 
this   trip.  H.  M.

CRAIG  QUALITY

Club  Holds  Picnic. 

Despite  the  unfavorable  weather,  the 
Lancaster  County  Florists'  Club  held 
its  annual  picnic  Thursday,  July  15, 
with  the  Chester  County  Florists'  Club 
as  guests.  The  members  filled  sixteen 
automobiles  and  met  at  the  farm  of  B. 
F.  Barr  &  Co.,  where  they  had  luncheon 
and  spent  an  hour  in  getting  acquainted. 
B.  F.  Barr  then  led  the  party  on  an 
inspection  tour  of  his  nursery  and  farm, 
after  which  President  James  Buchan- 
an's old  homestead  at  Wheatland  was 
visited.  George  B.  Wilson,  who  was 
formerly  a  florist,  is  the  owner  of  this

The  Florists^  Review 


July  22,  1920 


Greenhouse  Heating 

Subscribers  are  invited  to  write  the 
editor  of  this  department  with  regard  to 
any  details  of  greenhouse  heatbig  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. 


AMOUNT  OF  PIPE. 

How  much  pipe  shall  we  have  to  use 
to  heat  the  houses  shown  in  the  sketch 
I  am  sending  you?  We  are  going  to  use 
steam  heat  and  have  3-inch  pipe  for 
flows  and  1 14 -inch  pipe  for  returns. 
The  outside  temperature  goes  as  low  as 
5  degrees  below  zero.  Is  the  temper- 
ature in  the  houses  correct  for  what  we 
grow!  H.  &  S.— O. 

The^  sketch  shows  two  houses,  150 
feet  in  length  and  twenty-two  and 
twenty-five  and  a  half  feet  in  width 
respectively,  with  three  feet  of  glass 
and  three  feet  of  concrete  in  each  side 
wall.  The  houses  are  to  be  used  for 
lettuce,  geraniums  and  carnations  and 
48  to  52  degrees  is  noted  as  the  temper- 
ature to  be  maintained  at  night,  which 
is  about  correct. 

While  a  2% -inch  flow  pipe  would  be 
amply  large  enough  to  serve  as  a  steam 
main  in  each  of  the  houses,  a  3-inch 
flow  might  be  used  to  good  advantage. 
The  flows  should  be  carried  about  four 
feet  below  the  ridge.  In  addition  to 
the  3-inch  flow  pipe  in  each  house,  seven 
1%-inch  returns  will  be  needed  in  the 
house  twenty-five  and  a  half  feet  wide 
and  six  returns  in  the  other  house. 
Place  three  of  the  returns  on  the  ex- 
posed wall  of  each  house  and  distribute 
the  others  on  the  inside  walls  and  under 
the  middle  benches.  In  case  2%-inch 
flow  pipes  are  used,  an  additional  re- 
turn will  be  required  in  each  of  the 
houses.  The  main  return  should  bo  2- 
inch,  with  a  1%-inch  pipe  leading  to 
each  house,  and  these  should  be  con- 
nected with  the  individual  coils  by 
means  of  lJ4-inch  pipes. 

About  350  feet  of  3-inch  and  2,000 
feet  of  IVi-inch  pipe  will  be  required 
for  the  two  houses. 


TAPPING  BOILER  AGAIN. 

I  have  a  20-horsepower  hot  water 
boiler  tapped  for  a  3-inch  flow  and  re- 
turn. This  heats  one  house,  20x100 
feet.  Will  this  boiler  heat  another 
house,  20x100  feetT  Can  I  tap  this 
boiler  again  in  the  same  way  for  the 
new  house,  or  would  the  water  for  both 
houses  have  to  come  through  one  flow 
and  return!  W.  W.- 


The  letter  does  not  state  the  tempera- 
ture desired  in  the  houses,  or  whether 
there  is  any  glass  in  the  side  walls. 

If  a  temperature  of  60  degrees  will 
be  sufficient  and  if  there  is  no  more  than 
thirty  inches  of  glass  in  the  walls  of 
the  houses,  there  should  be  no  difiiculty 
in  heating  a  second  house  20x100  feet 
with  a  20-hor8epower  boiler. 

The  boiler  should  again  be  tapped 
for  a  3-inch  flow  and  return,  but  it  is 


The  Reward  of  Merit 


The  White  House  Greenhouses— U.  S.  Propagating  Gardens, 

Washington,  D.  C. 

HEATED  BY  KROESCHELL  BOILERS 

The  conservatories  of  the  Presi- 
dent of  the  United  States  and  the 

U.   S.  Propagating   Gardens  are 

located  opposite  the  Washington 

monument  at  Washington,  D.  C. 

Over  forty  greenhouses  are  devoted 

to  the  growing  of   cut   flowers, 

orchids,  stove  plants,  tropical  and 
decorative  stock,  and  all  bedding  and  ornamental  plants  for  the 
U.  S.  Government  buildings  and  grounds  at  Washington. 

A  No.  11  KROESCHELL  BOILER  was  installed  in  1906  for  the 
high  temperature  houses.  This  boiler  replaced  a  number  of  other 
makes  and  made  a  remarkable  record  for  fuel  economy. 

UNCLE  SAM'S  IRON  FRAME  RANGE  ERECTED  IN  1910 
IS  HEATED  BY  KROESCHELL  BOILERS. 

The  Plant  Introduction  Garden  of  the  United  States  Department 
of  Agriculture  at  Chico,  California,  is  heated  by  No.  2  Kroeschell 
Boiler  and  Generator  System. 

In  1912  two  No.  5  KROESCHELL  BOILERS  were  installed  for 
the  new  range  of  the  U.  S.  Department  of  Agriculture,  at  Garret 
Park,  Md. 

The  U.  S.  Government's  new  establishment,  the  Northern  Great 
Plains  Field  Station,  at  Mandan,  N,  Dakota,  ordered  a  No.  7  KROES- 
CHELL BOILER  for  the  new  greenhouse  range  erected  in  1913. 

August,  1914,  two  more  No.  11  KROESCHELL  BOILERS  were 
ordered  for  White  House  Conservatories  and  U.  S.  Propagating 
Gardens,  Washington,  D.  C.

preferable  to  use  three  2% -inch  over- 
head flows  in  the  house,  provided  more 
than  50  degrees  is  desired,  especially  if 
there  is  glass  in  the  side  walls.  Equally 
good  results  would  be  obtained  from  one 
larger  outlet  and  it  is  preferable  to  use 
one  5-inch  flow,  although  two  4-inck 
flow  and  return  outlets  would  be  all 
right.  As  indicated,  3-inch  outlets  are 
not  large  enough  for  houses  of  this  size 
for  the  best  results.  With  three  2%- 
inch  flows  and  twelve  2-inch  returns,  it 
will  be  possible  to  maintain  60  degrees

NEWARK,  N.  J. 


The  Market. 

Business  continues  good  for  the  sum- 
mer months.  Naturally,  the  volume  of 
trade  decreases  after  July  1  and  does 
not  increase  again  before  the  latter  part 
of  September  or  the  first  part  of  Octo- 
ber. With  some  florists  the  falling  off 
this  year,  however,  has  not  been  so 
great  as  it  usually  is.  Many  florists  are 
planning  to  redecorate  their  stores  or 
make  other  alterations  and  improve- 
ments during  the  summer  months,  pre- 
paratory to  the  fall  season. 

Vaxious  Notes. 

McLaughlin  &  Murphy  report  an  un- 
usually large  quantity  of  funeral  work 
for  this  season  of  the  year.  Other  trade 
has  fallen  off  somewhat. 

No  definite  arrangements  for  the  an- 
nual outing  of  the  Essex  County  Flo- 
rists' Club  have  yet  been  made,  al- 
though the  outing  is  usually  held  in  the 
early  part  of  August.  The  committee 
in  charge  of  arrangements  is  having 
some  difficulty  in  finding  a  suitable  place 
and  until  this  question  is  settled  it  will 
be  impossible  to  perfect  plans.

Any  Grower 

Who  Needs  2  Barrels 
of  Glazing  Cement 

is  invited  to  buy  one  barrel  of  us  and  one 
barrel  of  one  of  the  numerous  brands 
for  which  high  prices  are  asked.  If  Fed- 
eral does  not  prove  to  be  at  least  as 
good  as  the  other,  we  will  refund  the 
full  purchase  price. 

Federal  Greenhouae  Cement  No.  2  is  a  medium  thick  consistency.  We 
consider  this  the  ideal  consistency  for  glazing  work,  not  too  thick  nor  too 
thin.  Can  be  used  in  greenhouse  gun,  putty  bulb,  or  other  instruments. 
Those  who  prefer  a  slightly  thinner  consistency  can  thin  with  Federal 
Special  Creenhoaae  Thinner.

"1  am  using  your  patent  LEAK-PROOF  locked  gutter  on  my  greenhouses  to 
my  entire  satisfaction.  When  properly  flUed  in,  the  calking  groove  will  make  a

The  Market. 

Warm  summer  weather  continues,  but, 
in  spite  of  the  heat,  *)U8ines8  has  been 
fairly  good.  The  leading  stores  in 
the  city  made  July  15  a  $1  day, 
having  all  sorts  of  articles  reduced  to 
$1,  which  made  business  boom  and  the 
florists  had  their  share  of  the  trade. 

The  summer  crop  of  roses  includes  a 
great  many  short-stemmed  and  small 
flowers,  which  are  flooding  the  market 
and  are  sold  cheaply.  There  are  some 
of  excellent  quality,  however.  Gladioli 
are  much  more  abundant,  Halley  being 
fine,  but  America  not  so  plentiful.  Car- 
nations are  small.  Garden  flowers  are 
as  much  in  demand  as  ever.  Gypsophila 
is  being  used  profusely  in  baskets  and 
all  kinds  of  funeral  work.  Blooming 
hydrangeas  are  in  their  prime  now  and 
large  quantities  are  being  disposed  of. 

Various  Notes. 

Mrs.  Babst,  of  the  Rochester  Floral 
Co.,  is  spending  the  summer  at  Sea 
Breeze  and  will  go  to  Duluth,  Minn., 
sometime  in  August. 

Jacob  Thomann  &  Sons  are  cutting 
some  excellent  sweet  peas. 

C.  W,  Curtis  is  now  cutting  America 
and  Halley  gladioli.  The  first  of  his 
summer  asters  were  also  cut  last  week. 

Hart  &  Vick  have  just  sent  out 
their  summer  catalogues  for  fall  bulbs, 
shrubs  and  flowers. 

Frank  Purcell  is  cutting  some  excel- 
lent Francis  Scott  Key  roses. 

Thomas  Sullivan,  of  George  B.  Hart's, 
is  on  his  vacation.  Mr.  Hart  is  showing 
a  splendid  collection  of  fancy  baskets. 

Miss  Harvey  is  spending  the  summer 
in  Cleveland,  O. 

Julius  Berg,  of  Lion  k  Co.,  New  York, 
called  on  the  trade  last  week. 

George  T.  Boucher  has  two  excellent 
summer  window  displays,  consisting  of 
Boston  ferns,  fancy  caladiums,  huge 
jars  of  flame-colored  gladioli,  gypso- 
phila and  Shasta  daisies. 

The  Rochester  Floral  Co.  and  H.  E. 
Wilson  are  giving  employees  a  half- 
holiday  each  week.

[Concluded  from  page  48.] 
weeks  at  one  of  the  Bussian  river  re- 
sorts. He  was  accompanied  on  his  vaca- 
tion by  his  wife.  Mr.  Jaeger,  St.,  plans 
to  take  a  week  off  this  month  and  then 
go  deer  hunting  when  the  season  opens. 
He  is  w^U  satisfied  with  initial  business 
in  their  new  shipping  department.  The 
principal  diflBculty,  he  says,  is  the  need 
of  more  space. 

George  Wagner,  of  Joseph's,  is  back 
from  St.  Louis,  having  brought  a  bride 
with  him. 

Mrs.  Copeland's  store  on  Sutter 
street,  above  Grant  avenue,  attracted 
much  attention  last  week  with  a  special 
window  display  of  celosia  plants.  Three 
new  Chinese  varieties  were  shown. 
Though  it  is  the  quiet  time  of  the  year, 
Mrs.  Copeland  says  business  holds  up 
fairly  well.  She  had  a  heavy  rush  a 
day  or  two  last  week  with  commence- 
ment bouquets  for  nurses'  graduations 
at  some  of  the  local  hospitals,  forty 
bouquets  for  a  home  reception  and  !i 
number  of  floral  pieces  for  a  funeral. 

Vacations  have  about  completed  their 
course  at  the  store  of  the  MacRoric- 
McLarcn  Co..  on  Powell  street.  J.  A. 
Armstrong  is  now  at  Truekee  and  he 
was  the  last  to  get  away. 

A.  J.  Rossi,  of  Pelicano,  Rossi  &  Co., 
spent  two  weeks  at  Skaggs  Springs,  and 
upon  rctiirniiig  was  gratified  to  find 
that  business  had  held  up  well  during 
his  absence. 

A.  W.  Shurragar,  from  San  Luis 
Obispo,  Cal.,  was  in  town  last  week. 

Mrs.  Stanley,  with  Enonioto  &  Co., 
has  returned  from  a  vacation  trip  to 
Los  Angeles,  during  which  she  went  to 
Catalina  island  and  enjoyed  herself 
thoroughly. 

The  United  Flower  &  Supply  Co., 
which  is  one  of  the  few  places  handling 
early  chrysanthemums,  reports  a  good 
call  for  them.  They  are  now  preparing 
a  catalogue  of  strawflowers  for  distri- 
bution at  an  early  date. 

Henry  Avansino,  of  the  E.  W.  Mc-

Tou  can't  get  anything  better  no  matter  how  much

for  itself  by  keeping  your  greenhouse  air-tight.

county,  where  he  intends  to  visit  if  the 
gasoline  shortage  does  not  prevent. 

A  heavy  run  of  funeral  work  kept  the 
force  at  Darling's  Shop  busy  all  one 
night  last  week.  Box  trade  also  keeps 
up  well  here.  Manager  Gordon  started 
for  his  vacation  and  evidently  believes 
in  variety,  Bear  valley  and  Tia  Juana 
being  among  the  places  he  proposes  to 
visit. 

Mr.  Koyston,  of  Walter  Armacost  & 
Co.,  has  returned  from  his  eastern  trip 
and  says  that  he  is  glad  to  get  back  to 
California,  as  the  hot  nights  in  the  mid- 
dle west  were  not  agreeable.  Still  fur- 
ther additions  to  the  large  range  are 
contemplated,  but  the  difficulty  of  ob- 
taining pipe  and  other  materials  is 
blocking  progress. 

There  was  a  good  attendance  at  the 
last  meeting  of  the  Los  Angeles  Flo- 
rists' Club,  held  at  Christopher's,  with 
President  Walter  Armacost  in  the  chair. 
Arrangements  for  the  entertainment  of 
Mrs.  Ella  Grant  Wilson,  of  Cleveland, 
O.,  on  the  occasion  of  her  visit  were 
made  and  Secretary  A.  F.  Borden  was 
instructed  to  send  out  a  letter  to  the 
trade  inviting  everyone  to  attend.  At 
the  time  of  the  meeting  a  definite  date 
could  not  be  decided,  but  later  July  22 
was  decided  on.  Mr.  Borden  and  his 
fellow  officers  have  worked  hard  to  get 
a  good  meeting  and  have  sent  out  a 
strong  appeal  to  all  in  the  trade  to  help 
make  it  a  success.  Mr.  Borden  makes 
the  suggestion  that  employers  purchase 
tickets  for  the  affair  for  their  em- 
ployees. 

C.  E.  Thomas,  of  the  Eosery,  Kansas 
City,  Mo.,  is  visiting  Los  Angeles. 

William  Kelly,  of  El  Centro,  is  stay- 
ing in  Los  Angeles  and  vicinity  for  the 
summer,  intending  to  return  to  the  val- 
ley about  October,  after  the  heated 
term.  He  speaks  in  glowing  terms  of

Built  for  JOHN  J.  MITCHELL,  Lake  Geneva,  Wis. 

WHILE  most  of  the  houses  which  we  build  on  Private  Estates  are  of  Iron  Frame 
Construction  with  Curved  Eaves,  there  are  times  when  FOLEY  PIPE  FRAME 
HOUSES  are  preferred. 

Built  as  we  build  them,  the  FOLEY  PIPE  FRAME  is  superior  to  the  ordinary 
kind.  The  Mitchell  houses  are  our  regular  Commercial  Pipe  Frame,  so  popular  with 
the  Commercial  Florist.  The  benches,  however,  are  of  the  type  used  in  a  majority  of 
our  Iron  Frame  Private  Houses— a  bench  of  great  strength  and  long  life,  with  gal- 
vanized angle  frames,  galvanized  pipe  legs  and  cypress  side  boards  and  bottoms. 

Regardless  of  the  type  of  construction  preferred,  there  is  a  FOLEY  GREEN- 
HOUSE of  that  type  which  will  satisfy  you  to  the  letter.

VALUABLE? 

IF  NOT,  don't  read  any  further - 
this  will  not  interest  you.  If 
time  is  money  with  you,  here  is 
where  you  "cash  in"  on  a  big 
saving  of  both.  Looks  little-  pays 
big.  One  sample  will  convince  you 
that  this  article  is  money  in  your 
pocket.  "WIRE  TIE"  is  the  up- 
to-date,  instantaneous  method  of 
supi)ort  for  your  mums  and  all  other 
plants  that  need  it.  The  small  loop 
around  the  stake,  the  large  one 
around  the  plant  —  one  snap  and 
there  you  are.  Can  be  used  over  and 
over.  Beats  twine  all  hollow. 
Used  by  the  biggest  in  the  business.

You  want 


-to  save  on  your  fuel 
bills  by  actually  getting 
the  maximum  heat- 
power  at  minimum  cost. 

-an  economical,  non- 
wasteful  heating  system 
that  will  give  you  your 
full  money's  worth. 


Now- 


WeVe  grown  a  bit  proud  of  the  uniform  satis- 
faction given  by  McKee  Boilers,  and  of  the 
nice  things  people  voluntarily  say  about  them. 

For  it's  a  genuine  pleasure  to  sell  boilers  that 
win  unsolicited  praise  wherever  used. 

A  card  from  you  will  bring  a  boiler  book  to  you. 
Won't  you  'tend  to  it  immediately?

Everybody  likes  a  winner — 

Especially  when  they  have  contributed  to  his  success.  Same  way  with  a 
certain  kind  of  greenhouse,  because  its  success  has  meant  dollars  and  cents  in 
the  bank  for  those  who  have  used  it. 

The  AGMCO  36-foot  steel  framer  is  a  winner.  That's  why  it  has  so  many 
users  and  that's  why  its  many  users  are  all  boosters. 

Some  of  these  users  are  well  known  to  you: 

Charles  Steidle,  Olivette,  Mo Three  houses  250  ft.  long. 

Walter  Amling,  Pana,  111 Seven  houses  300  ft.  long. 

Weiss-Spandikow,  Rhodes  Siding,  111.. Four    houses  400  ft.  long. 
Daut  Bros.,  Decatur,  111 Six      houses  300  ft.  long. 

And  in  sunny  Tennessee- 
there  will  soon  be  six  AGMCO  36-foot  steel  framers,  five  of  which  will  be 
300  ft.  long  and  one  350  ft.  long,  spreading  the  fame  of  their  makers  through- 
out the  southland,  under  the  banners  of  the  Joy  Floral  Co.,  Nashville,  Tenn. 

It's  only  a  matter  of  time  when  you,  too,  will  become  an  enthusiastic  mem- 
ber of  the  AGMCO  36-foot  booster  club. 

Why  not  join  it  now!

tell  why  Mr.  Pearson 
has  had  such  splen- 
did success.  He  has 
combined    knowl- 
edge with  untiring 
effort  and  keen  business  ability.    Mr.  Pearson's  crops  always

The  Costly  Cost 
Of  Robbing   Peter  To   Pay  Paul 


Speaking  of  robberies,  let's  first  speak  of 
car  gears. 

Cars  have  gears  to  give  a  range  of  speeds  aud 
power. 

You  caa  have  your  highest  speed  with  your 
hiijhest  gear,  but  you  also  have  the  lowest 
power. 

Low  gear  gives  the  greatest  power  but  the 
least  speed. 

You  simply  can't  have  both  the  greatest 
speed  and  greatest  power  at  one  and  the 
same  time. 

With  greenhouse  construction,  it's  exactly 
the  same  way. 

You  can  have  some  things,  if  you  have  others. 

Or  you  can  have  others,  if  you  have  some. 

For  example,  take  columns. 

If  you  take  out  columns,  you  must  put  in 
trusses,  tliat  will  do  what  the  columns  did. 

You  can't  rob  Peter  to  pay  Paul. 

It  takes  just  so  much  supporting  to  support 
any  roof. 


Reduce  the  si/.e  of  those  supports  and  some 
fine  morning  you  will  look  out  the  window 
and  find  your  house  lying  down  for  a  nice 
long  nap. 

Putting  columns  in  a  house  is  so  simple  in 
its  principle  that  you  can't  go  very  far  wrong. 

But  when  it  comes  lo  trussing  a  house  you 
get  into  stresses  and  strains. 
Which  iu  turn  gets  you  into  engineering  com- 
plications, with  figures,  and  figures,  and  more 
figures. 

Our  engineer  figured  out  the  weights  and 
strains,  etc.,  which  determined  the  si/e  and 
design  of  the  various  members. 

We  proved  up  the  figures  by  building  the 
trusses  in  the  factory  and  testing  them. 

Every  truss  we  put  in  a  house  has  a  surplus 
of  strength  for  emergencies,  such  as  a  heavy 
snow,  or  a  twister  of  a  wind. 

That's  why  you  have  never  heard  of  one  of 
our  big  houses  gomgdown. 

If  these  stand-up-facts  interest  you,  and  you 
want  more,  we  have  a  lot  more  to  give  you.

selected  only  from  the  best  and  healthy  plants  which  in  turn  give  very  good 
results . 

I  have  paid  strict  attention  to  my  Salmon  and  Red  shades  particularly 
for  the  American  trade.  My  seed  will  be  offered  by  the  American  Bulb  Company, 
who  are  my  sole  agents,  and  none  is  genuine  unless  purchased  through  the 
American  Bulb  Company.  It  is  with  pleasure  that  I  recommend  to  all  florists 
who  are  growers  of  high  class  plants  to  try  out  my  seed.  I  hold  recommenda- 
tions from  the  best  growers  in  the  world.       Yours  very  truly,

ering. Florists  not  yet  members  can  take  out  memberships  at  the  Secretary's  office  in  Convention  Hall  by 
payment  of  the  yearly  dues,  which  are  $5.00,  and  receive  cards  at  the  same  time. 

Members  who  have  not  paid  their  1 920  dues  and  are  desirous  of  having:  their  cards  in 
advance  of  the  Convention,  should  make  remittance  to  the  Secretary  NOW. 

The  Convention  Program  is  most  interesting  and  provides  for  discussion  of  many  subjects  of  vital 
importance  to  the  florists'  industry. 

Take  a  few  days'  vacation  and  join  your  brethren  in  the  trade  at  Cleveland,  exchange  ideas,  and 
profit  by  what  you  see  and  hear — it  will  do  you  good.

RATES  WILL  BE  HIGHER 

The  wage  advance  granted  railroad  employees  will  be

To  Save  Yourself  Money 

we  recommend  early  purchase  of  your  Fall  and  Christmas

TO  THOSE  FLORISTS  WHO  HAVE  ALREADY  PLACED

If  a  florist  charged  Orchid  prices  for  Dandelions  and  Daisies  he  would  soon  find  himself 
without   patronage;    nevertheless,    some   florists  continue  to  pay    Quality 
Prices  for  Mediocre  Ribbons  and  Chiffons.

TEXAS  TRADE  HOLDS 
RECORD  CONVENTION 

How  large  a  part  Texas  plays  in  the  southern  trade  was  indicated  at  the 
sixth  annual  convention  of  the  Texas  State  Florists'  Association  last  week 
at  Fort  Worth.  The  large  representation  from  neighboring  states  made 
the  convention  a  regional,  rather  than  a  state  affair. 


:m  e 


wM^ 


LENTY  of  pep  and  plenty 
of  punch  were  in  evidence 
throughout  the  sixth  an- 
nual convention  of  the 
Texas  State  Florists'  As- 
sociation in  the  chamber 
of  commerce  auditorium  at 
Fort  Worth  July  20  to  22. 
The  Fort  Worth  Florists' 
Club  and  the  McCallum 
Co.,  of  Philadelphia,  served  the  punch 
and  everybody  brought  their  pep  with 
them.  At  least  265  were  in  attendance 
and,  as  indicated  in  The  Review's  pre- 
liminary report  of  the  convention  last 
week,  Verner  J.  Davis,  president  of  the 
Fort  Worth  Florists'  Club,  and  the 
club's  other  officers  had  every  reason 
to  be  proud  of  the 
arrangements  they 
made.  The  audi- 
torium was  beauti- 
fully decorated  with 
oak  sprays,  Spanish 
moss,  palms  and  cut 
flowers. 

Even  the  more 
solid  parts  of  the 
convention,  the  ad- 
dresses, were  affect- 
ed by  the  pervasive 
spirit  of  informal 
gaiety  and  were  in 
large  part  delivered 
e  X  t  emporaneously; 
they  showed,  how- 
ever, the  result  of 
much  previous 
thought  and  well 
considered  experi- 
ence. 

Addresses. 

Four  different  as- 
pects of  trade  organ- 
ization were  dis- 
cussed Wednesday 
morning  in  the  talks 
on  the  question, 
"Can  the  Florists' 
Business  Be  Oper- 
ated Successfully  on 
the  Profit-Sharing 
Plan?"  by  Eobert 
C.  Kerr,  of  Houston;

Wednesday  afternoon  James  W.  Beg- 
bie,  of  Shreveport,  La.,  gave  a  stimu- 
lating talk  on  "The  National  Publicity 
Fund"  and  the  convention  quickly 
raised  $1,000  for  that  fund.  Then 
Henry  Greve,  of  Dallas,  aroused  both 
enthusiasm  and  a  live  sense  of  loyalty 
to  the  state  association  by  his  remarks 
on  the  question,  "How  Can  We  Best 
Increase  Our  Membership  in  the  Texas 
State  Florists'  Association?"  That  both 
the  influence  and  the  membership  of 
the  association  were  spreading  was  at- 
tested by  the  fact  that  the  president 
was  instructed  to  appoint  a  representa- 
tive in  Oklahoma,  Louisiana  tiuA  Ar- 
kansas, to  stimulate  interest  in  the 
Texas  association. 

The  two  addresses 
of  the  final  day 
were  rich  in  infor- 
mation; one  by  V,  J. 
Davis  told  of 
* '  Some  Sidelights 
on  Rose'  Growing 
after  Two  Years' 
Experience  in  Tex- 
as" and  the  other, 
on  "Can  the  Retail 
Florist 's  Business 
be  Operated  Suc- 
cessfully frotn  the 
Greenhouse  f"  was 
by  Wise  Adkisson, 
of  Greenville. 

Final   Session. 

In  the  final  ses- 
sion the  officers  for 
the  coming  year 
were  elected,  as  fol- 
lows: President, 
Otto  Lang,  of  Dal- 
las, whose  portrait 
appeared  in  last 
week's  issue  of  The 
Review;  vice-presi- 
dent, Frank  C. 
Suchy,  of  San  An- 
tonio, and  secretary- 
treasurer,  Louis  J. 
Tackett,  of  Fort 
Worth.  San  An- 
tonio was  selected 
as  the  place  for  the 
association's  1921 
convention. 

Chief  among  the 
social  events  of

was  the  banquet

banquet  was  held  in  the  company's  serv- 
ice room,  which  is  150  feet  long  and 
was  decorated  to  represent  an  arbor, 
with  Spanish  moss  hanging  from  the 
ceiling.  Eobert  C.  Kerr,  of  Houston, 
the  first  president  of  the  association, 
was  toastmaster  and  a  number  of 
speeches,  brief,  witty  and  to  the  point, 
were  made  by  visitors  and  local  florists. 
In  addition  to  the  after-dinner  speeches, 
Mr.  Taylor,  leader  of  the  Kewanna  quar- 
tet, of  Fort  Worth,  led  the  banqueters 
in  singing  "Say  It  with  Flowers"  and 
also  taught  them  "We  Don't  Want  to 
Go  Home,"  which  found  immediate 
favor. 

Making  Merry  with  Mnsic. 

In  fact,  music  played'  a  prominent 
part  all  through  the  convention.  In 
the  opening  session,  after  Eobert  G. 
Kerr  had  responded  to  Judge  Powell's 
address  of  welcome,  the  Kewanna  quar- 
tet sang  "Say  It  with  Flowers"  while 
several  little  girls,  dressed  in  white, 
passed  around  the  balcony  of  the  audi- 
torium and  showered  roses  upon  the 
members  below.  Eckles '  orchestra  gave 
several  half-hour  concerts  during  the 
convention.  The  report  of  Louis  J. 
Tackett  was  sandwiched  in  between  a 
solo,  "Among  the  Eoses,"  by  Miss 
Gladys  Haven  and  a  duet  by  Miss 
Haven  and  Miss  Strathe.  Miss  Haven 
was  costumed  as  Columbia  and  pre- 
sented a  large  basket  of  Columbia  roses 
to  the  convention  from  the  Fort  Worth 
Florists'  Club;  President  Hannah's 
speech  of  acceptance  was  eloquent. 

Another  large  item  in  the  list  of  en- 
tertainments was  the  picnic  at  Lake 
Worth  the  evening  of  July  22;  this, 
like  the  banquet  the  previous  evening, 
was  attended  by  practically  all  those 
who  came  to  the  convention.  The  picnic 
was  given  by  the  Fort  Worth  Florists' 
Club,  which  provided  ample  refresh- 
ments. Luncheons  were  given  at  the 
Westbrook  hotel  July  21  by  the  South- 
ern Florist  Publishing  Co.  and  July  23, 
the  day  after  the  convention,  by  the 
salesmen  of  the  trade  display;  tlje  sec- 
ond luncheon  was  tendered  to  the  ofi&cers 
of  the  Fort  Worth  Florists'  Club. 

Trade  Exhibits. 

The  trade  exhibits  at  the  convention 
this  year  were  large  and  highly  success- 
ful; every  foot  of  the  available  space 
underneath  the  balcony  was  taken.  It 
has  been  a  policy  of  the  association  to 
encourage  the  florists  to  make  their 
purchases  at  the  convention  and  from 


the  firms  represented  in  the  trade  ex- 
hibits. Among  the  firms  exhibiting  were 
the  following: 

McCallum  Co.,  Pittsburgh,  Pa.,  represented 
by  S.   8.   Puryear. 

M.  Rice  Co.,  Ptiiladelphia,  Pa.,  repreaented

represented   by   Mr.   Dolan. 

Brownwood  Floral  Co.,  Brown  wood,  Tex,,  rep- 
sented   by  Hans  Schroeder. 


COMPABATIVE  BENEFITS. 


From  Two  Kinds  of  Advertising. 

In  his  address  before  the  convention 
of  the  Texas  State  Florists'  Association, 
at  Fort  Worth  last  week,  on  "The 
National  Publicity  Fund,"  James  W. 
Begbie,  of  Shreveport,  La.,  made  a 
strong  appeal  for  support  of  the  S.  A. 
F.  fund.  He  presented  two  aspects  of 
advertising  expenditure  in  a  compara- 
tive way  to  induce  florists'  investment 
in  the  national  campaign.  He  said  in 
this  regard: 

"While  there  are  many  here  who 
have  contributed  liberally  towards  this 
fund  and  who  are  already  reaping  its 
benefits,  there  are  a  larger  number  who 
have  not  given  this  publicity  fund  the 
consideration  it  deserves  and  conse- 
quently have  not  subscribed  towards  it. 
It  is  to  those  I  would  appeal  today  to 
do  their  duty  toward  a  campaign  that 
has  put  the  florists '  business  on  a  higher 
plane  than  it  has  ever  been  before,  a 
campaign  that  will  increase  your  busi- 
ness many  fold. 

"Let  me  inquire  how  many  of  you 
keep  a  standing  ad  in  the  local  paper 
in  your  town.  1  am  safe  in  saying  three- 
fourths  of  you  do.  Let  me  ask  you 
what  benefit  you  derive  from  that  ad. 
I  will  answer  that  question  myself: 
None  whatever.  Your  ad  is  never  no- 
ticed, never  read;  you  are  known  all 
over  town  as  Smith  the  Florist  and  the 
public  does  not  think  it  necessary  to 
read  standing  ads.  Of  course,  if  you 
have  anything  special  around  Christ- 
mas, Easter,  Mothers '  day  or  any  other 
time,  advertise  it,  tell  it  to  the  public 
through  your  local  paper.     It  will  pay 


yon.  Bat  when  you  faava  nothing  ^mt 
of  the  ordinary  you  are  WAStisg  maaiof 
and  printers'  ink.  ;.- 

Wlwra  Money  Ooimts. 

"It  la  different  with  the  Bstional 
publicity   fund.     You   pay   your   loeal 

paper,  say,  $100  a  year  for  nothing. 
Subscribe  $25  to  this  national  fund  and 
you  are  sure  to  get  results.  Your  $25 
is  helping  to  'Say  It  with  Blowers' 
in  all  the  leading  magazines,  periodicals 
and  newspapers  in  the  United  States. 
This  publicity  fund  has  been  the  means 
of  making  'Say  It  with  Flowers*  a 
household  word. 

"Judicious  advertising  has  made  many 
multimillionaires  through  disposing  of 
some  special  article  of  little  use  or  less 
value.  Then  why  should  you  not  profit 
from  such  extensive  advertising  as  has 
been  done  by  the  S.  A.  F.  and  which  it 
proposes  to  continue?  There  is  a  sum 
of  $100,000  required  for  the  purpose  of 
advertising  this  year.  Half  of  it  has 
already  been  subscribed.  Now  we  are 
after  the  other  half.  How  much  are 
you  willing  to  give  toward  this  fund? 
Not  give  tomorrow  or  next  week,  but 
how  much  will  you  give  right  now?"

EFFECTIVE  ADVERTISING. 


For  Selling  Flowers. 

Florists  are  indeed  fortunate  in  hav- 
ing one  of  God's  most  beautiful  gifts 
to  sell  and  a  service  that  is  of  inesti- 
mable value  to  mankind.  If  we  but 
think  of  the  impressive  sentiments  that 
prompt  one  to  "Say  It  with  Flowers," 
we  cannot  but  realize  the  possibilities 
that  are  awakening  and  beckoning  to 
us  to  harness  them  into  potential  agen- 
cies of  sales  value. 

The  business  of  selling  flowers  and 
floral  service  has  been  one  of  our  biggest 
problems.  Production  may  be  increased 
greatly,  but  to  turn  this  production  into 
profitable  channels  requires  an  organ- 
ized system  of  merchandising  and  mar- 
keting which  will  involve  advertising. 
In  the  old  sense  of  the  word,  advertis- 
ing was  merely  intended  to  bring  notice 
through  public  print  to  some  article  or 
service  offered  for  sale  or  trade.  Today 
it  has  a  different  meaning.  The  modern 
1920  ob.iect  of  advertising  is  not  merely 
to  give  publicity  to  flowers,  but  to 
create  a  demand  for  flowers  and  a  desire 
for  our  flowers  when  that  demand  is  real- 
ized. The  climax  to  this-  thought,  in- 
ducing the  buyer  to  be  sufliciently  in- 
terested to  want  your  flowers,  can  only 
be  produced  by  the  tactful  application 
of  skillful  advertising  that  will  intro- 
duce your  proposition,  forcefully  recom- 
mend your  flowers  and  service,  inspire 
confidence  and  accomplish  action.  When 
this  objective  is  obtained,  we  have  suc- 
ceeded in  producing  effective  advertis- 
ing, because  the  actual  sale  is  the  main 
object  we  are  attaining,  but  when  our 
advertising  is  reinforced  with  good  pub- 
licity, the  campaign  will  be  more  effec- 
tive and  will  result  in  increased  good 
will  and  increased  volume  of  sales,  with 
decreased  proportionate  overhead  ex- 
penses and  selling  cost. 

Expense  or  Investment? 

Some  say  that  advertising  is  expen- 
sive. Whether  it  is  an  expense  or  a 
good  investment  depends  materially 
upon  your  ability  to  use  it  correctly. 
When  we  stop  to  think  that  the  Coca- 


The  address  of  E.  W.  Elchllng,  sales  manager 
for  Kerr  the  Florist,  Houston,  Tex.,  at  the 
convention  of  the  Texas  State  Florists'  Asso- 
ciation at  Fort  Worth,  July  21,  1020,  on  "Effec- 
tive   Advertising." 

Cola 'Co.  invests  $1,000,000  in  advertis- 
ing annually  and  consider  the  remark- 
able demand  for  its  product,  we  need  no 
further  proof  that  judicious  advertising 
is  profitable.  To  produce  maximum  re- 
turns on  our  investment,  a  concrete  plan 
of  action  is  necessary.  An  appropria- 
tion of  five  per  cent  of  the  gross  annual 
sales  has  been  accepted  by  many  as 
being  the  proper  amount.  There  are 
several  good  media  in  which  this  ap- 
propriation may  be  used  to  advantage, 
among  which  may  be  mentioned.,  daily 
newspapers,  catalogues,  etc.,  window  dis- 
play, outdoor  display,  picture  slides  and 
miscellaneous  advertising  used  in  vari- 
ous school  and  church  publications  and 
organization  journals. 

Selecting  Media. 

The  selection  of  your  media,  while  of 
importance,  can  only  be  secondary  to  the 
absolute  necessity  of  making  the  entire 
campaign  one  of  supreme -coordination, 
with  each  timber  in  the  structure  carry- 
ing its  apportioned  load  and  having  a 
vital  relation  to  the  other  and  the  policy 
of  your  business.  We  should  not  con- 
sider one  medium  as  a  unit  of  great 
value,  but  only  as  driving  our  message 
to  the  individual  and  not  to  the  people. 
Here  is  where  the  fascination  of  ad- 
vertising lies — its  personality — making 
it  an  art  of  unlimited  possibilities,  so 
elastic  that  there  is  no  rule  that  can  be 
applied  to  reduce  it  to  a  science.  One 
method  may  differ  from  another,  yet 
both  may  be  effective.  I  have  closely 
studied  the  relative  merits  of  media  ap- 
plicable to  our  local  retail  floral  ad- 
vertising and  have  found  the  daily  news- 
paper our  most  valuable  medium.  We 
spend  one-half  of  our  appropriation 
with  the  daily  newspapers  and  the  re- 
sults accomplished  have  been  gratifying. 
One-fourth  of  this  appropriation  is  ap- 
plied to  direct  advertising  and  the  bal- 
ance for  window  display,  picture  slide 
and  miscellaneous  advertising. 

The    newspaper    has    greater    circula- 


tion, affords  flexibility,  quick  response 
with  rapidity  of  turnover  and,  com- 
pared to  results,  is  the  cheapest  medium, 
but  direct  advertising  is  just  as  im 
portant  and  more  effective  in  making  "a 
direct  appeal  to  the  individual  who  is  a 
known  flower  buyer.  It  is  virtually  a 
personal  appeal  and  can  be  controlled 
to  reach  your  prospect  at  the  psychologi- 
cal time.  We  have  used  the  advertising 
service  of  a  well  known  Chicago  service 
company  during  the  last  two  years, 
changing  the  text  to  conform  with  our 
needs,  and  have  found  this  service  to  be 
a  business  builder  of  great  value.  How- 
ever, the  foundation  of  any  direct  cam- 
paign is  your  mailing  list;  it  must  not 
contain  any  waste  circulation.  Fre- 
quent revision  of  your  mailing  list  is 
essential.  Prospects  move,  die,  or  are 
not  responsive  after  reasonable  appeal. 
If  there  is  no  oil  where  you're  drilling, 
move  the  rig  A  direct  appeal,  just 
prior  to  special  days,  such  as  Christmas, 
Easter  and  Mothers'  day,  will  be  pro- 
ductive of  surprising  results.  Do  not 
lose  an  opportunity  to  have  every  piece 
of  mailing  matter  for  local  or  near-by 
country  delivery  carry  a  small  folder  or 
stuffer,  calling  attention  to  some  special 
offer  or  service.  In  fact,  every  piece  of 
printed  matter,  including  letter  station- 
ery, statements,  invoices,  checks  and  all 
other  matter  that  will  eventually  find 
its  way  to  a  prospect,  should  carry  a 
slogan  or  other  selling  argument. 

The  Layont. 

I  touch  only  on  the  essentials  for  a 
good  layout.  Begardless  of  the  me- 
dium, the  attractiveness  of  finished 
copy  lies  in  display — that  balanced  com- 
bination of  illustration,  text,  border  and 
signature.  It  should  be  our  object  to 
make  the  advertisement  stand  out  in 
relief"  and  attract  attention.  Good  il- 
lustration will  multiply  the  power  of 
your  advertisement.  Concentrate  your 
text  to  fit  the  space  and  remember  that 
blank  space  is  cheap  if  properly  used. 
Popularity  of  your  flowers  cannot  be 
gained  by  the  use  of  the  obsolete  rep- 
lica of  the  old  business  card  in  the 
town  paper  twice  monthly.  You'll  have 
to   make    it    snappy   now,    because    the

banquet  was  held  in  the  company's  scrv 
ice  room,  which  is  I.IO  feet  loni;  and 
was  decorated  to  represent  an  arbor, 
with  Spanish  nio.ss  Jianj;inf>;  from  the 
ceilinjj.  Robert  ().  Kerr,  of  Houston, 
tlie  first  jiresident  of  Ihv  association, 
was  toast  master  and  a  number  of 
sjifjeches,  lirief,  witty  and  to  tlie  |)oint, 
were  made  by  visitors  and  local  lb)rists. 
In  addition  to  tlie  after-dinner  si)eeches, 
;Mr.  Tayh)r,  lead<'r  of  the  Kewanna  (piar- 
tet,  of  Fort  Wortli,  led  the  baiicjiieters 
in  sin^iiifx  ''Say  It  with  Flowers"  and 
also  taiijiht  tluni  "We  Don't  Want  to 
Go  Home,"  which  found  iiiiuiediatf 
favor. 

Making  Merry  with   Music. 

In  fact,  music  playeil  a  jiromineut 
part  all'  through  the  convention.  In 
the  opoiiinj;-  session,  after  l{(d)ert  ('. 
Kerr  had  responded  In  .ludfic  Po\veir> 
address  of  welcome,  the  Kew.anna  quar 
tet  sang  "Say  It  with  Flowers"  while 
several  little  girls,  dressed  in  white, 
passed  around  the  balcony  of  the  audi 
toriuiiv  and  showered  roses  ui>on  the 
members  below.  Fckles'  orchestr.'i  gave 
several  half  hour  concerts  during  the 
convention.  The  report  of  Louis  J. 
Tackett  was  sandwiched  in  between  a 
solo,  "Among  the  J{oses,"  by  Miss 
(.Gladys  Jlaveu  and  a  duct  by  Miss 
Haven  and  Miss  Strathe.  Miss  Haven 
was  costumed  as  Columbia  and  pre- 
sented a  large  basket  of  Columbia  rosea 
to  the  convention  from  the  Fort  Worth 
Florists'  (,'lub;  President  Hannah's 
speech  of  accc])tancc  was  ehxjuent. 

Another  large  item  in  the  list  of  en 
tertainments  was  the  jiicnic  at  Lake 
Worth  the  evening  of  duly  2'J;  this, 
like  the  baiupiet  the  ])revious  evening, 
was  attended  by  j)ractically  all  those 
who  came  to  the  convention.  The  picnic 
was  given  by  the  Fort  Worth  Florists' 
Club,  which  i)rovided  amjjle  refresh- 
ments. Luiuheous  were  given  at  the 
Westbrook  hotel  duly  21  by  the  South- 
ern Florist  I'ublisiiing  Co.  and  July  23, 
the  day  after  the  convention,  by  the 
salesmen  of  the  trade  display;  the  sec- 
ond luncheon  was  tendered  to  the  officers 
of  the  Fort  Worth   FiorLsts'  Club. 

Trade   Exhibits. 

The  trade  exhibits  at  the  convention 
this  year  were  large  ami  highly  success- 
ful; every  foot  of  the  available  space 
underneath  the  balcony  was  taken.  It 
has  been  a  policy  of  the  associ.-ition  to 
encourage  the  llorists  to  make  their 
purchases   at    the   convention   and    from 


the  firms  represented  in  the  trade  ex- 
hibits. Among  the  firms  (>xhibiting  were

COMPARATIVE  BENEFITS. 


From  Two  Kinds  of  Advertising. 

In  his  address  befoi(>  the  convention 
of  tlie  Te.\;is  State  Florists'  Association, 
at  Fort  Worth  last  w>ek,  on  "The 
Natiou;il  j'ublicity  Fund,''  dames  W. 
Megbie,  of  Shre\  (>|iort.  La.,  made  a 
strong  appeal  for  support  of  the  S,  A. 
F.  fund.  He  jtresented  two  asi)ects  of 
.•idvertising  exju'nditure  in  a  compara 
five  way  to  induce  florists'  investment 
in  the  national  campaign.  He  said  in 
ill  is  regard: 

"While  there  are  many  here  who 
ha\e  contributed  liberally  towards  this 
fund  and  who  are  already  reaping  its 
benefits,  there  are  a  larger  number  who 
hiive  not  given  thfs  ])ublicity  fund  the 
consideration  it  deserves  and  conse 
quently  have  not  subscribed  towards  it. 
it  is  to  those  I  would  appeal  today  to 
do  their  duty  toward  a  campaign  that 
has  put  the  florists'  business  on  a  higher 
pl;ine  than  it  has  ever  been  before,  a 
lampaign  that  will  increase  your  busi- 
ncos  many  tola. 

"Let  me  inquire  how  many  of  you 
keep  a  standing  ad  in  the  local  paper 
in  your  town.  I  am  safe  in  saying  three- 
fourths  of  you  do.  Let  me  ask  j'ou 
what  benefit  you  derive  from  that  atl. 
J  will  answer  that  <|uestion  myself: 
None  whatever.  Your  ad  is  never  no- 
ticed, ne\er  read:  you  are  known  all 
(>\vr  town  as  Smith  the  Florist  and  the 
jnil)lic  does  not  think  it  necessary  to 
read  standing  ads.  Of  course,  if  you 
have  anything  speci.al  around  Christ- 
mas, L'.asri'r,  Motheis'  day  or  any  other 
time,  advertise  it,  tell  it  to  the  jiiiblic 
through   your  local   jmjier.      It    will  })ay 


you.  But  when  you  have  nothing  out 
of  the  ordinary  you  are  wasting  mouer 
and  printers'  ink. 

Where  Money  Counts. 

"It  is  different  with  the  nati 
publicity  fund.  You  pay  your  local 
jiaper,  say,  .$100  a  year  for  nothing. 
Subscribe  $25  to  this  national  fund  and 
you  are  sure  to  get  results.  Your  $25 
is  helping  to  'Say  It  with  Slowers' 
ill  all  the  leading  magazines,  jieriodicals 
and  newsp;i]iers  in  the  United  States. 
This  juiblicity  fund  has  been  the  means 


It    with    Flowers'    a 


of    making    'S.ay 
household  woid. 

"Judicious  .advertising  has  made  many 
multimilliouaiies  through  disposing  of 
some  sjuH'ial  article  of  little  use  or  less 
value.  Then  why  should  you  not  profit 
from  sucii  extensive  advertising  as  has 
been  done  by  the  S.  A.  F.  and  which  it 
proposes  to  continue?  There  is  a  sum 
of  $100.0(>U  required  for  the  jiurpose  of 
advertising  this  year.  Half  of  it  has 
.already  been  subscribed.  Now  we  are 
after  the  other  h;ilf.  How  much  are 
you  willing  to  give  towanl  this  fundf 
Not  give  tomorrow  or  next  week,  but 
how  much  will  you  give  right  now'i?'"

PUBLICITY    THAT    PAYS

EFFECTIVE  ADVERTISING, 


For  Selling  Flowers. 

Florists  are  indeed  fortuniite  in  hav- 
ing: one  of  God's  most  beautiful  gifts 
to  sell  and  a  service  that  is  of  inesti- 
mable value  to  mankind.  If  we  but 
think  of  the  impressive  sentiments  that 
[irompt  one  to  "Say  It  with  Flowers,'" 
we  cannot  but  realize  the  possibilities 
that  are  awakening:  and  beckoning  to 
us  to  harness  them  into  potential  agen- 
cies  of   sales   value. 

The  business  of  selling  flowers  and 
lloral  service  has  been  one  of  our  biggest 
problems.  Production  may  be  increased 
greatly,  but  to  turn  this  j)roduction  into 
profitable  channels  requires  an  organ- 
ized system  of  merchandising  and  mar- 
keting which  will  involve  advertising. 
In  the  old  sense  of  the  word,  advertis- 
ing was  merely  intendeil  to  bring  notice 
through  public  print  to  some  article  or 
service  olTered  for  sale  or  trade.  Today 
it  has  a  different  meaning.  The  modern 
lOl'O  object  of  advertising  is  not  merely 
to  give  publicity  to  flowers,  l)ut  to 
■  reate  a  demand  for  flowers  and  a  desire 
for  our  flowers  when  that  demand  is  real-, 
ized.  The  climax  to  this  thought,  in- 
ducing the  buyer  to  be  sutliciently  in- 
terested to  want  your  flowers,  can  only 
he  produced  by  the  tactful  application 
i>f  skillful  advertising  that  will  intro- 
liuce  your  proposition,  forcefully  recom- 
mend your  flowers  and  service,  inspire 
tronfidence  and  accomplish  action.  When 
this  objective  is  obtained,  we  liave  suc- 
ceeded in  producing  effective  advertis- 
ing, because  the  actual  sale  is  the  main 
object  we  are  attaining,  but  when  our 
advertising  is  reinforced  with  good  pub- 
licity, the  campaign  will  be  more  effec- 
tive and  will  result  in  increased  good 
will  and  increased  volume  of  sales,  with 
decreased  proportionate  overhead  ex- 
penses and  selling  cost. 

Expense  or  Investment? 

Some  say  that  advertising  is  expen- 
sive. Whether  it  is  an  expense  or  a 
•;ood  investment  depends  materially 
upon  your  ability  to  use  it  correctly.

further  proof  that  judicious  iidvertising 
is  jirolitable.  To  produce  iiiiixiMium  re- 
turns on  our  investment,  a  concrete  ])lan 
of  action  is  necessary.  An  appropria- 
tion of  five  per  cent  of  the  gross  annual 
sales  lias  l)een  accepted  liy  many  as 
being  the  jiroficr  .'iniotiiit.  There  are 
several  good  media  in  which  this  .ap- 
propriation may  be  used  to  advantage, 
among  which  may  ])e  mentioned  liaily

play, outiloor  display,  picture  slides  and 
miscellaneous  advertising  used  in  vari- 
ous school  and  church  publications  and 
organization  journals. 

Selecting  Media. 

The  selection  of  your  media,  while  of 
importance,  can  only  be  secondary  to  the 
absidute  necessity  of  making  the  entin- 
campaign  one  of  supreme  coordintition, 
with  each  timber  in  the  structure  carry- 
ing its  ap])ortioncd  load  and  having  a 
vital  relation  to  the  other  and  the  policy 
of  your  business.  We  should  not  con- 
sider one  medium  as  a  unit  of  great 
value,  but  only  as  driving  our  message 
to  the  individual  and  not  to  the  people. 
Here  is  where  the  fascination  of  ad- 
vertising lies — its  personality — making 
it  an  art  of  unlimited  possibilities,  so 
elastic  that  there  is  no  rule  that  can  be

method  maj'  difTer  from  another,  yet 
both  may  be  effective.  I  have  closely 
studied  the  relative  merits  of  media  a[>- 
plicable  to  our  local  retail  floral  ad 
vcrtising  and  have  found  the  daily  news- 
paper our  most  valuable  medium.  We

with  the  daily  newspapers  and  the  re 
suits  accomplished  have  been  gratifying. 
One-fourth  of  this  appropriation  is  ap- 
plied to  direct  advertising  and  the  bal-

and    miscellancfius   advertising.

with  raj)idity  t)f  turno\or  and,  com 
pared  to  results,  is  the  cheapest  medium, 
l)iit  direct  advertising  is  just  as  im

The  Florists^  Review 


Jolt  29,  1920 


public  has  formed  a  habit  of  respond- 
ing only  to  attractively  designed  copy 
with  a  message  of  value.  And  they  are 
accustomed  to  being  constantly  re- 
minded. 

Behind  every  action  there  is  a  mo- 
tive. Why  "Say  It  with  Flowers"! 
Our  national  slogan  in  itself  implies  the 
reason,  but  a  slogan  alone  is  like  an 
aeroplane  without  a  motor;  to  acceler- 
ate speed,  action  and  accomplishment  of 
purpose,  we  must  drive  the  message 
home  with  100-horsepower,  not  argu- 
ments but  strong  appeals  and  real  rea- 
sons, and,  above  all,  reasons  for  say- 
ing it  with  your  flowers. 

The  Copy. 

The  occasions  when  flowers  find  their 
place  are  too  well  known  to  men- 
tion from  the  cradle  to  the  grave.  In 
many  minor  and  big  events  of  life  from 
January  1  to  December  31,  there  are 
occasions  when  saying  it  with  flowers 
will  bring  joy  and  contentment  to  many, 
including  ourselves.  To  capitalize  these 
occasions  through  advertising,  appealing 
to  the  sense  of  emotions  of  your  pros- 
pective buyer  at  the  psychological  mo- 
ment, forcefully  and  consistently,  is  one 
of  the  secrets  of  successful  florists'  ad- 
vertising. Never  allow  an  occasion  to 
escape;  have  your  ammunition  ready  to 
throw  a  barrage  that  will  overcome  all 
objections. 

When  your  advertisement  is  intended 
to  close  the  sale  of  some  specified  flower 
or  plant  it  will  be  necessary  to  arouse 
interest  and  close  the  sale  through  sug- 
gestion and  a  strong  appeal  to  the 
senses,  beauty,  quality,  form,  size,  fra- 
grance, color,  touch  imagination,  satis- 
faction, of  pride  and  a  fair  price  appeal. 
When  a  motive  is  formed  there  is  a 
willingness  to  buy  and  it  remains  only 
fpr  a  elevei;  salesman  to  close  the  sale, 
but  when  it  is  necessary  to  arouse  a 
motive  consider  what  practical  uses  your 
prqspeQt  \vill  get  with  your  flowers  and 
what  main  motives  will  make  your  pros- 
pect want  your  flowers.  Vanity  and  the 
expression  of  love  and  Sympathy  I  con- 
sider the  principal  motives  for  the  use 
of  flowers. 

Appeal  to  Style. 

Style  and  the  prestige  that  goes  with 
it  form  a  valuable  advertising  point.  Let 
your  advertisement  fairly  bristle  with 
style  appeals;  make  your  name  so  dis- 
tinctive that  its  appearance  on  a  corsage 
bouquet  box  is  evidence  of  the  good  taste 
and  rare  judgnaent  of  the  sender. 

The  quality  appeal  has  strength  be- 
cause our  stock  is  perishable  and  much 
satisfaction  depends  upon  the  fresh- 
ness and  substance  of  the  flowers.  It 
should  be  every  florist's  aim  to  handle 
flowers  of  superior  merit  and  make  the 
fact  known  with  forceful  reasons  why 
there  are  advantages  in  buying  his 
flowers.  Bareness,  color  quality,  fra- 
grance, length  of  stem,  texture  of  bloom, 
luxurious  foliage,  fresh  stock  and  finest 
floral  accessories  are  convincing  points. 
The  appeal  to  the  artistic  sense  has 
several  good  points — beauty  of  form, 
uniqueness  of  color,  harmonious  blends, 
graceful  arrangements  and  novel  effects. 
These  are  but  a  few  of  the  treasure  of 
reasons. 

Love,  the  undefined  sentiment,  is  our 
most  effective  appeal.  Love  of  mother, 
sister,  sweetheart  or  friend,  an  affection- 
ate desire  to  create  happiness  for  them 
and  to  apprisn^  them  of  this  desire — 
what  better  advertisement  of, one's  love 
than  to  "Say  It  with  Flowers"!    And 


so  it  is  with  sympathy  when  flowers 
inspire  hope  and  banish  loneliness.  Their 
proven  therapeutic  valu^  in  the  sick- 
room is  food  for  other  thought  in  the 
direction  of  more  sales. 

Have  a  Slogan. 

Your  firm  name,  the  most  valuable 
asset  you  have,  is  your  best  means  of 
identifying  your  flowers  and  the  service 
you  advertise.  Individuality  may  be 
impressed  by  an  attractively  designed 
name  plate,  which  must  always  be  em- 
phasized in  your  advertising.  It  must 
be  your  personal  representative  in  cold 
type  and  should  be  of  distinctive  design 
and  easily  recognizable.  In  addition 
tQ  the  national  slogan,  it  is  well  for 
every  florist  to  adopt  a  slogan  of  his 
own.  Many  people  were  u^der  the  im- 
pression that  all  of  our  flowers  were 
shipped  from  northern  markets  and  were 
not  in  fresh  condition  when  sold,  and 
we  adopted  the  slogan,  "Fresh  Every 
Morning,"  which  has  appeared  during 
the  last  two  years  in  nearly  1,000  ad- 
vertisements and  over  60,000  pieces  of 


E.  W.  Eichliog. 

direct  advertising  and  it  has  succeeded 
in  overcoming  this  erroneous  impres- 
sion. 

Your  show  windows  offer  unusual  op- 
portunities for  converting  a  little  origi- 
nality and  artistic  effort  into  actual 
sales.  While  window  displays  should 
coordinate  with  all  advertising,  especi- 
ally newspaper,  there  should  be  an  ele- 
ment of  the  new  and  the  unique  to  at- 
tract attention  and  create  favorable 
comment.  Your  window  is  the  guide  to 
the  quality  of  your  flowers  and  other 
stock  and  the  progressiveness  of  your 
establishment.  Begular  changes,  with 
attractive  displays  and  the  use  of  ar- 
tistically designed  window  cards,  telling 
your  message,  result  in  sales  that  more 
than  offset  the  effort.  The  glass  should 
carry  an  enlarged  name  plate  near  the 
entrance  in  gold  leaf  and  a  copy  of  the 
national  slogan  in  gold  script.  Clean- 
liness of  interior  and  exterior  is  para- 
mount. 

Theater  Advertising. 

Picture  slide  advertising,  while  of 
some  value,  is  only  valuable  in  accom- 
plishing name  publicity.  The  individual 
is  not  in  the  proper  receptive  mood  for 
reading  advertisements  and  your  mes- 
sage often  fails  to  impress  him.  Con- 
centration and  the  appearance  of  the 
same  message  simultaneously  in  all  thea- 
ters will  give  better  results. 

Unless  advertising  is  supported  by  a 
strong  sales  and  service   organization. 


ready  to  respond  to  every  call  created 
by  advertising,  it  cannot  be  expected  ta 
produce  maximum  results.  Even  a  com- 
plaint on  quality  or  service  may  often 
be  turned  into  a  profitable  advertise- 
ment by  a  tactful  and  live  adjustment. 

The  cut  flower  box  of  unusual  color 
and  pattern,  with  its  attractive  tie,  can 
create  an  impression  of  quality,  neatness 
and  painstaking  attention  to  delivery. 
This  may  be  featured  by  using  a  box 
with  stripes  of  pleasing  color  contrasted 
with  the  body  color.  Your  box  should 
always  dispT^  your  name,  address  and 
slogans  conspicuously.  Delivery  tags 
should  also  be  given  this  treatment  and 
it  is  a  good  idea  to  print  instructions 
for  the  proper  care  of  cut  flowers  and 
plants  on  the  reverse  side.  Even  the 
card  envelope  should  carry  your  name. 

We  are  afforded  many  opportunities 
to  gain  valuable  publicity.  A  bridal 
window  display  of  a  prominent  dry 
goods  firm  featuring  your  flowers;  a  dis- 
tribution of  surplus  flowers  in  hospitals 
with  your  flowers;  a  complimentary 
basket  of  flowers  for  the  opening  of  a 
new  store  or  bank;  an  occasional  re-< 
membrance  of  a  good  customer  on  a 
proper  occasion;  the  contribution  of 
articles  to  newspapers  and  the  occa- 
sional furnishing  of  table  decorations 
gratis  for  luncheons  at  clubs  of  which 
you  are  a  member  are  ohly  a  few  of  the 
many  opportunities  that  pxgsent  them- 
selves. 

Delivery  Car  a  Billboard. 

Your  delivery  equiplnlent  offers  an- 
other opportunity,  as  your  automobile 
may  be  converted  into  a  veritable  mov- 
ing billboard.  Besides  the  name  dis- 
play, the  national  slogan  should  be  em- 
blazoned on  the  panel.  Your  equip- 
ment is  an  index  to  the  dependability 
of  your  service  and  should  be  maintained 
in  the  highest  standard  of  appearance 
and  efficiency. 

An  electric  sign  featuring  the  name 
and  the  word  florist,  near  the  entrance 
to  your  store  will  attract  the  transient 
buyer  and  identify  your  establishment. 
A  small  sign  in  the  window  may  be 
used  for  special  offers  or  to  advertise 
a  special  service. 

Back  up  the  telegraph  delivery  for  all 
it's  worth.  It  is  no  longer  an  experi- 
ment; it  has  made  good.  What  this  idea 
is  worth  to  the  florist  depends  in  a 
great  measure  upon  himself.  Only  by 
everlasting  effort  and  cooperation  in 
giving  publicity  to  this  service  can  it  be 
developed  to  its  rightful  size;  you  are 
the  doctor. 


USINGEB'S  UTTEBAXCES. 

Frank  Winans,  Petoskey,  Mich.,  has 
purchased  a  farm  a  short  distance  from 
the  city  for  the  purpose  of  growing 
asters  and  gladioli.  It  will  have  a 
sprinkler  system  of  irrigation.  Mr. 
Winans  will  discontinue  the  retail  busi- 
ness. 

Hasselbring  Florist,  Flint,  Mich.,  will 
open  a  second  store,  in  the  new  Hotel 
Durand.  The  fall  planting  at  the  green- 
houses has  been  completed  and  the  stock 
is  well  advanced  for  an  early  crop.  The 
report  shows  business  greater  than  ever 
before,  with  more  trade  and  larger 
profits. 

Miss  Zorn,  of  the  D.  P.  Smith  Floral 
Co.,  Flint,  Mich.,  is  on  her  vacation, 
visiting  her  home  in  Sheboygan,  Wis. 
The  greenhouses  at  the  old  Smith  range 
are  being  dismantled  and  will  be  rebuUt 
at  a  new  location.  W.  T.  U.

SUCCESSFUL   PROFIT-SHARING 


lr^^1rrsv1^rs\1rrw^/sv1rlrav1r?sv1r?sv1r)rsv1r?s>rtr/wrrs^r4^1r)r^ 


USINESS  is  entering  upon 
a  new  era.  It  is  the  day 
of  close  cooperation,  not 
only  among  business  men 
themselves,  but  among 
their  employees  as  well. 
As  a  matter  of  fact,  we 
have  been  asleep  at  the 
stake  for  many  years  and 
have  been  short-sighted  in 
our  views  and  actions  towards  em- 
ployees. There  should  be  no  difference 
between  the  florists'  business  and  any 
other  business.  We  operate  along  the 
same  line  as  merchandisers.  There  is  a 
difference,  however,  which  is  largely  the 
fault  of  florists  themselves.  I  have  said 
before  that  the  majority  of  failures  in 
business,  or  of  failures  to  make  a  suc- 
cess in  the  florists'  business,  are  due  to 
the  fact  that  there  are  too  many  of  us 
that  put  ourselves  on  a  par  with  the 
man  who  is  spading  the  beds  or  wheel- 
ing dirt.  We  are  too  prone  to  be  penny 
wise  and  pound  foolish.  In  other 
words,  it  is  time  to  devote  the  biggest 
part  of  our  time  to  conducting  the  ex- 
ecutive end  of  the  business.  We  must 
come  to  realize  where  we  are  making 
money  and  where  we  are  losing  it. 
This  can  only  be  done  by  systematic 
records. 

This  brings  me  to  the  new  issue  of 
the  day,  which  is 
profit-sharing.  This 
is  another  step  for- 
ward. It  is  money 
in  our  pockets.  You 
may  say,  *  *  How  can 
I  profit  by  paying 
my  employees  a  por- 
tion of  my  profits, 
on  a  profit-sharing 
basis,  when  I  have 
not  done  it  hereto- 
fore?" 

Employees'  Part. 

If  we  adopt  the 
profit-sharing  plan, 
each  employee  real- 
izes that  when  he 
wastes  stock  he  is 
participating  in  that 
loss;  if  he  fails  to 
give  good  service 
and  the  store  loses 
a  customer,  he  is 
participating  in  the 
loss ;  if  in  making  up 
a  design  or  bouquet 
he  is  wasteful  in  the 
material  that  he 
uses,  he  is  partici- 
pating in  another 
loss,  or,  if  in  mak- 
ing up  a  design  or 
bouquet  he  is  eco- 
nomical in  the  con- 
struction of  the 
work  and  is  also 
careful  to  see  that 
it  will  come  up  to 
the  expectations  of 
the  customer,  he  is 
participating  in  the 
profits.  It  is  human 
nature  for  employ- 
ees to  be  more  inter- 


The  address  of  Robert  C.  Kerr,  of  Houston, 
Tex.,  before  the  meeting  of  the  Texas  State 
Florists'  Association,  July  21,  1920,  on  ''Can 
the  Florists'  Business  Be  Operated  Successfully 
on    the    Proat-Sharlng    Plan?" 


ested  in  the  work  of  a  concern  if  they 
know  that  they  are  interested  in  the 
profits,  whether  they  are  large  or  small. 
In  nine  cases  out  of  ten  where  a  concern 
has  labor  troubles,  it  is  its  fault  and 
not  the  fault  of  the  employees. 

There  are  several  things  that  are 
essential  in  a  profit-sharing  system: 
First,  there  must  be  an  organization. 
By  that  I  mean  employees  who  are 
satisfactory  and  have  a  desire  to  build 
up  a  big  organization.  If  there  are  un- 
satisfactory employees,  it  makes  no  dif- 
ference what  is  offered  them,  they  are 
dead  to  the  world  and  time  and  energy 
are  lost  in  trying  to  please  them.  So 
weed  them  out  and  get  only  the  best. 

Profit-Sharing  vs.  Gifts. 

I  believe  that  there  is  only  one  true 
profit-sharing  basis.  There  is  the  idea 
of  handing  a  bonus  check  at  the  end  of 
the  year,  and  it  is  accepted  graciously 
by  the  employee,  but  the  plan  does  not 
instill  inspiration  as  by  the  actual  re- 
sults of  the  store.  A  plan  to  get  re- 
sults must  be  of  such  a  nature  that  every 
employee  participates  in  the  actual  prof-

its  of  the  company,  and  then  it  is  up 
to  them  to  deliver  the  goods.  Lay  your 
cards  on  the  table  if  you  are  proud  of 
your  business  and  let  the  other  fellow 
know  how  you  have  succeeded.  If  a 
commercial  agency  asks  for  a  report  of 
your  business  and  it  is  a  good  one,  you 
are  proud  to  render  it;  if  it  is  a  bad 
one,  you  sometimes  hesitate  and  may 
fail  to  render  it  and  are  therefore  put 
in  the  wrong  class. 

Do  not  try  to  make  a  secret  of  the 
actual  profits  of  your  store.  Bender 
a  monthly  profit  and  loss  statement. 
Have  your  monthly  eflB.ciency  meeting. 
Talk  about  the  statement.  If  one  par- 
ticular line  showed  an  unusual  profit,, 
find  out  how  you  did  it.  Apply  the 
same  methods  to  the  other  departments 
that  are  not  so  profitable.  Talk  with 
the  head  of  the  delivery  department 
and,  if  the  maintenance  of  this  de- 
partment is  unusually  high,  investigate 
it  thoroughly  and  find  out  why.  The 
bookkeeper  should  submit  a  list  of  cus- 
tomers who  are  slow  to  pay.  The  sales 
manager  should  discuss  ways  and  means 
of  increasing  the  sales  of  the  store. 
These  monthly  eflSciency  meetings  are 
wonderful  things.  Let  your  business 
be  an  open  book  with  your  employees. 
It  will  instill  confidence  and  make  them 
more  deeply  interested  in  your  welfare. 

The  profit-sharing 
plan  has  been  insti- 
tuted by  many  of 
our  larger  concerns 
and  is  working  suc- 
cessfully with  many 
firms  throughout  the 
country;  so  let  us 
conduct  our  busi- 
ness on  that  basis 
and  let  it  be  said 
that  the  florists 
throughout  the 
country  are  ranked 
among  the  best  class 
of  business  men. 

Working  Plan. 

I  am  going  to 
give  our  working 
plan,  not  as  a  model, 
but  I  believe  we 
have  taken  a  step  in 
the  right  direction. 
Our  retail  store  is 
operated  by  what 
we  call  the  central 
organization,  c  o  m- 
posed  of  myself,  the 
sales  manager,  the 
superintendent  o  f 
service  and  the 
credit  manager,  four 
in  all.  The  head  of 
each  department  is 
held  responsible  for 
his  respective  work, 
and  is  expected  to 
show  results  at  the 
end  of  the  year. 
This  plan  has  been 
in  operation  since 
the  first  of  this 
year. 

There  is  only  one 
thing  that  gets  re-

tion from  the  cradle  to  the  grave.  In 
many  minor  and  big  events  of  life  from

Wlien  your  advertisement  is  intended 
to  close  the  sale  of  some  specified  tlower 
or  plant  it  will  be  necessary  to  arouse

of   flowers. 

Appeal  to  Style. 

Stylo  and  the  prestige  that  goes  with 
it  form  a  valuable  advertising  point.  Let 
your  advertisement  fairly  bristle  with 
style  appeals;  make  your  name  so  dis- 
tinctive that  its  appearance  on  a  corsage 
bouquet  box  is  evidence  of  the  good  taste 
and  rare  judgment  of  the  sender. 

The  quality  a7>peal  has  strength  be- 
cause our  stock  is  perishable  and  much 
satisfaction  depends  upon  the  fresh- 
ness and  substance  of  the  flowers.  It 
should  be  every  florist 's  aim  to  handle 
flowers  of  sujierior  merit  and  make  the 
fact  known  with  forceful  reasons  why 
there  are  advantages  in  buying  his 
flowers.  Rareness,  color  quality,  fra- 
grance, length  of  stem,  texture  of  bloom, 
luxurious  foliage,  fresh  stock  and  finest 
floral  accessories  are  convincing  points. 
The  appeal  to  the  artistic  sense  has 
several  good  points — beauty  of  form, 
uniqueness  of  color,  harmonious  blends, 
graceful  arrangements  and  novel  effects. 
These  are  but  a  few  of  the  treasure  of 
reasons. 

Love,  the  undefined  sentiment,  is  our 
most  cfl'ective  appeal.  Love  of  mother, 
sister,  swectlieart  or  friend,  an  afTection- 
ate  desire  to  create  happiness  for  them 
and  to  apprise  them  of  this  desire — 
what  better  advertisement  of  one's  love 
than  to  "Say  It  with  Flowers"f     And 


so  it  is  with  symj)athy  when  flowers 
insjtire  hojie  and  banish  loneliness.  Their 
proven  1  horajieiilic  \aluo  in  the  sick- 
room is  food  tor  other  thought  in  the 
direction  of  more  sales. 

Have  a  Slogan. 

Your  firm  i;anie,  the  most  valuable 
asset  you  have,  is  your  best  means  of 
identifying  your  flowers  and  the  service 
you  advertise.  Individuality  may  be 
impressed  l\y  .■in  attractively  designed 
name  jdate^  which  must  always  be  em- 
[diasi/.ed  in  your  atlvertising.  It  must 
be  your  personal  representative  in  cold 
type  and  shoidd  be  of  distinctive  design 
and  easily  recognizable.  lu  addition 
to  the  national  slogan,  it  is  well  for 
every  florist  to  adoj)t  a  slogan  of  his 
()wn.  Many  ])eojde  Were  under  the  im- 
jpression  that  all  of  our  flowers  were 
shijijieil  from  northern  markets  and  were 
not  in  fresh  condition  when  sold,  and 
we  adopted  the  slogan,  "Fresh  Every 
^lorning, "  which  has  appeared  during 
the  last  two  years  in  nearly  1,000  ad- 
vertisements and  over  60,000  pieces  of 


E.  W.  Eichling. 

direct  advertising  and  it  has  succeeded 
in  overcoming  this  erroneous  impres- 
sion. 

Your  show  windows  offer  unusual  op- 
jiortunities  for  converting  a  little  origi- 
nality and  artistic  effort  into  actual 
sales.  While  window  displays  should 
coordinate  with  all  advertising,  especi- 
ally newspajter,  there  should  be  an  ele- 
ment of  the  new  and  the  unique  to  at- 
tract attention  and  create  favorable 
comment.  Your  window  is  the  guide  to 
the  quality  of  your  flowers  and  other 
stock  and  the  j)rogressivencss  of  your 
establishment.  Kegular  changes,  with 
attractive  displays  and  the  use  of  ar- 
tistically designed  window  cards,  telling 
your  message,  result  in  sales  that  more 
than  offset  the  ctTurt.  The  glass  should 
carry  an  enlarged  name  plate  near  the 
entrance  in  gold  leaf  and  a  copy  of  the 
national  slogan  in  gold  script.  Clean- 
liness of  interior  and  exterior  is  para- 
mount. 

Theater  Advertising. 

Picture  slide  advertising,  while  of 
some  value,  is  only  valuable  in  accom- 
])lishing  name  publicity.  The  individual 
is  not  in  the  proper  recci)tive  mood  for 
reading  a<lvertisements  and  your  mes- 
sage often  fails  to  impress  him.  Con- 
centration and  the  appearance  of  the 
same  message  simultaneously  in  all  thea- 
ters will  give  better  results. 

Unless  advertising  is  supported  by  a 
strong   sales   and   service    organization. 


ready  to  respond  to  every  call  created 
by  advertising,  it  cannot  be  expected  to 
produce  maximum  results.  Even  a  com- 
])laint  on  quality  or  service  may  often 
be  turned  into  a  profitable  advertise- 
ment by  a  tactful  and  live  adjustment. 

The  cut  flower  box  of  unusual  color 
and  jiattern,  with  its  attractive  tic,  can 
create  an  impression  of  quality,  neatness 
and  painstaking  attention  to  delivery. 
This  may  be  featured  by  using  a  box 
with  stri])es  of  ])leasing  color  contrasted 
witli  the  body  color.  Your  box  should 
always  display  your  name,  address  and 
slogans  coiisj)icuously.  Delivery  tags 
should  also  bo  given  this  treatment  and 
it  is  a  good  idea  to  print  instructions 
for  the  proper  care  of  cut  flowers  and 
plants  on  the  reverse  side.  Even  the 
card  envelope  should  carry  your  name. 

We  are  afforded  many  opportunities 
to  gain  valuable  publicity.  A  bridal 
window  display  of  a  prominent  dry 
goods  firm  featuring  your  flowers;  a  dis- 
tribution of  surplus  flowers  in  hospitals 
with  your  flowers;  a  complimentary 
basket  of  flowers  for  the  opening  of  a 
new  store  or  bank;  an  occasional  re- 
membrance of  a  good  customer  on  a 
proper  occasion;  the  contribution  of 
articles  to  newspapers  and  the  occa- 
sional furnishing  of  table  decorations 
gratis  for  luncheons  at  clubs  of  which 
you  are  a  member  are  only  a  few  of  the 
many  opportunities  that  present  them- 
selves. 

Delivery  Car  a  Billboard. 

Your  delivery  equipment  offers  an- 
other opportunity,  as  your  automobile 
may  be  converted  into  a  veritable  mov- 
ing billboard.  Besides  the  name  dis- 
jilay,  the  national  slogan  should  be  em- 
Idazoned  on  the  panel.  Your  equip- 
ment is  an  index  to  the  dependability 
of  your  service  and  should  be  maintained 
in  the  highest  standard  of  appearance 
and  efficiency. 

An  electric  sign  featuring  the  name 
and  the  word  florist,  near  the  entrance 
to  your  store  will  attract  the  transient 
buyer  and  identify  your  establishment. 
A  small  sign  in  the  window  may  be 
used  for  special  offers  or  to  advertise 
a  special  service. 

Back  up  the  telegraph  delivery  for  all 
it's  worth.  It  is  no  longer  an  experi- 
ment; it  has  made  good.  What  this  idea 
is  worth  to  the  florist  depends  in  a 
great  measure  upon  himself.  Only  by 
everlasting  eflort  and  cooperation  in 
giving  publicity  to  this  service  can  it  be 
developed  to  its  rightful  size;  you  are 
the  doctor.

SUCCESSFUL   PROFIT-SHARING 


JlfTTtltTTiitTTtifTTH-f^^?

UJSINE.SS  is  oiitt'riii.u'  upon 
a  now  era.  It  is  tlie  day 
of  close  coiipcrat  ion,  not 
only  ;unong  business  men 
themselves,  but  umou},^ 
tlicir  employees  as  well. 
As  a  matter  of  fact,  wo 
liave  been  asleep  at  the 
stake  for  many  years  and 
have  been  short-sighted  in 
(lur  views  and  actions  towards  em- 
ployees. There  should  be  no  difference 
!)etween  the  florists'  business  and  any 
c»ther  business.  We  operate  along  the 
ame  line  as  merchandisers.  There  is  a 
lifference.  however,  which  is  largely  the 
lault  of  florists  themselves.  1  have  said 
before  that  the  majority  of  failures  in 
t)usiness,  or  of  failures  to  make  a  suc- 
cess in  the  florists'  business,  are  due  to 
the  fact  that  there  are  loo  many  of  us 
that  put  ourselves  on  a  par  with  the 
man  who  is  spading  the  beds  or  wheel- 
ing dirt.  We  are  too  prone  to  be  penny 
wise  and  pound  foolish.  In  other 
words,  it  is  time  to  devote  the  biggest 
part  of  our  time  to  conducting  the  ex- 
ecutive end  of  the  business.  We  must 
come  to  realize  where  we  are  making 
money  and  where  we  are  losing  it. 
This  can  only  be  done  by  systematic 
records. 

This  brings  me  to  the  ne\v  issue  of 
the  <iay,  which  is 
[irofit-sliaring.  This 
is  another  step  for- 
ward. It  is  money 
in  our  pockets.  You 
may  say,  "How  can 
I  profit  by  paying 
my  employees  a  por- 
tion of  my  profits, 
on  a  profit-sharing 
basis,  when  I  have 
not  done  it  hereto- 
fore?" 

Employees'  Part. 

If   wo    adopt    the 
profit-sharing    plan, 
each  employee  real- 
izes   that    when    he 
wastes    stock    ho    is 
participating  in  that 
loss;    if   he   fails   to 
give   good    service 
anil   the   store   loses 
a    customer,    ho     is 
participating  in  the 
loss;  if  in  making  up 
a  design  or  bouquet 
■'io  is  wasteful  in  tlie 
inatorial     that     he 
'i^^cs,   ho    is    partici- 
I'ating     in     another 
OSS,  or,   if   in    mak- 
'fig  up  a   design   or 
l'ou(|uot   he   is   eco- 
nomical in  the  con- 
trnction     of     the 
'ork     and     is     also 
•'ireful   to   see   that 
t   will   come  up   to 
*lie  expectations  of 
'he  customer,  he   is 
Participating  in  the 
profits.  It  is  human 
nature    for    employ-

I'sted  in  the  work  of  a  concern  if  th(\v 
know  that  thcv  arc  interested  in  the 
pidfits,  whether  thcv  are  large  oi-  small. 
In  nine  cases  out  of  ten  where  a  concern 
has  labor  troiil)les,  it  is  its  fault  and 
not  the  fault  of  the  employees. 

There  are  several  things  that  .are 
essential  /-^i  11  a  i>i()lit-sharing  system: 
First,  there  must  b(!  an  organization. 
By  that  I  mean  emyiloyees  who  are 
satisfactory  and  liave  a  desire  to  liuild 
iij)  a  big  organization.  If  there  are  un- 
satisfactory I'liiployecs,  it  makes  no  dif- 
ference wliat  is  oll'ered  llieiii,  they  are 
ilead  to  the  world  and  time  and  energy 
are  lost  in  trying  to  jdease  them.  Su 
weed  them  out  and  get  only  the  liest. 

Profit-Sharing  vs.  Gifts. 

I  believe  that  there  is  only  one  true 
jirofit-sharing  basis.  There  is  the  idea 
of  lianding  a  bonus  chc(d\  at  the  end  of 
the  year,  and  it  is  accepted  graciously 
by  the  employee,  but  the  idan  does  not 
instill  inspiration  as  by  the  actual  re- 
sults of  the  store.  A  plan  to  get  re- 
sults must  be  of  such  a  nature  that  every 
employee  ]>articipates  in  the  actual  prof-

In  tlicin  Id  deliver  tlie  goods.  Lay  your 
rarils  nil  the  table  if  you  .ire  proud  of 
your  luisiiiess  ;ind  let  the  other  fellow 
kiiiiw  how  you  have  succci'ded.  If  a 
coimiiercial  agi'Ucy  asks  for  a  report  of 
your  business  and  it  is  a  good  one,  you 
are  proud  to  render  it;  if  it  is  a  batl

fail  to  render  it  and  are  therefore  put 
ill    the    wrong   idass. 

Do  not  try  to  make  a  secret  of  the 
actual  ))rofits  of  your  store.  Render 
.1  monthly  profit  and  loss  statement. 
Have  your  monthly  efficiency  meeting. 
Talk  about  the  statement.  If  one  ])ar- 
ticuhir  line  showed  an  unusu.'il  protitj 
find  out  how  you  did  it.  Ai)ply  the 
same  methods  to  the  other  departments 
that  are  not  so  profitable.  Talk  with 
the  head  of  the  delivery  department 
and,  if  the  maintenance  of  this  de- 
partment is  unusually  high,  investigate 
it  thoroughly  ami  find  out  why.  The 
bookkeeper  should  submit  a  list  of  cus- 
tomers who  are  slow  to  ]»ay.  The  sales 
manager  should  discuss  ways  and  means 
of  increasing  tlie  sales  of  the  store. 
These  monthly  efficiency  meetings  are 
wonderful  things.  Let  your  business 
be  an  open  bocdv  with  your  employees. 
It  will  instill  confidence  and  make  them 
more  deeply  interested  in  your  welfare. 

The  profit-sharing 
plan  has  been  insti- 
tuted by  niany  of

conduct  our  busi-

and  let  it  be  said 
t  hat  the  florists 
t  h  r  o  u  g  h  o  u  t  the 
country  are  ranked 
among  the  best  class 
of  business  men. 

Working  Plan. 

I  am  yoing  to 
give  our  working 
plan,  not  as  a  model. 
hut  I  believe  we 
have  taken  a  step  in 
the  right  direction. 
Our  retail  store  is 
operated  by  what 
\se  call  the  central 
orijanization,  com- 
posed of  myself,  the 
sales  manager,  the 
superintendent  o  f 
scrvii^e  a  n  d  the 
credit  manager,  four 
in  all.  The  head  of 
each  department  is 
liold  responsible  for 
his  respective  work, 
and  is  exptccted  to 
show  results  at  the 
end  of  the  year. 
This  [ilan  has  been 
in  ojieration  since 
the  first  of  this 
year.

The  Florists'  Review 


Jolt  20,  1920 


sulta  and  that  is  the  employee  partici- 
pating in  the  profits.  I  am  also  going 
farther  and  give  the  percentages,  in 
order  that  I  may  give  an  idea  as  to 
how  we  make  our  dividends.  They  are: 
Myself,  seventy-five  per  cent;  sales 
manager,  twelve  and  one-half  per  cent; 
superintendent  of  service,  six  and  one- 
fourth  per  cent,  and  credit  manager, 
six-  and  one-fourth  per  cent.  As  a 
barometer  to  conditions  of  business,  a 
monthly  statement  showing  disburse- 
ments of  the  month  is  made.  The  em- 
ployees participate  in  the  net  cash  prof- 
its. All  accounts  must  be  paid.  After 
this  is  done  a  division  is  made  in  the 
above  proportions,  leaving  a  reasonable 
cash  balance,  whatever  amount  is  agreed 
upon  by  the  central  organization. 

Important  Featiire. 

There  is  one  feature  of  this  proposi- 
tion that  IS  fair  and  reasonable  and  puts 
us  in  a  position  to  know  how  long  we 
shall  have  an  organization  intact.  It 
is  agreed  by  all  parties  that  in  an  event 
I  may  want  a  change  in  the  plan,  1  give 
six  months'  notice.  It  is  also  agreed  that 
every  employee  give  six  months '  notice 
in  case  of  withdrawal  from  the  organi- 
zation. The  failure  to  give  notice  in 
case  they  withdraw  will  forfeit  the  ac- 
crued profits  on  the  books  and  some 
other    penalties    that    wo    have    agreed 


upon.  In  the  case  of  the  dissolution 
of  this  plan,  only  the  accounts  on  the 
books  and  not  the  merchandise  on  hand 
will  be  considered,  as  that  eliminates 
complication  and  simplifies  matters. 

We  also  make  a  provision  for  branch 
stores  that  we  might  see  fit  to  organize. 
If  any  member  of  the  central  organiza- 
tion is  made  manager  of  the  branch, 
he  or  she  will  maintain  one-half  of  the 
original  per  cent  in  the  organization  and 
in  addition  will  participate  to  the  ex- 
tent of  fifteen  per  cent  of  the  profits 
of  the  branch  store,  based  upon  the 
above  plan.  However,  all  profit-sharing 
and  bonus  checks  paid  out  by  the  branch 
and  central  store  shall  be  treated  as  an 
overhead  expense,  and  the  central  or- 
ganization will  then  be  paid  accord- 
ingly. 

Includes  All  Employees. 

As  stated,  the  plan  from  January  1  to 
July  1  only  affected  the  heads  of  the  de- 
partments. Since  July  1  every  employee 
participates  on  the  following  basis: 
Whatever  net  percentage  our  store 
earns,  every  employee  will  receive  the 
same  percentage  of  his  annual  salary. 
For  instance,  if  we  earn  ten  per  cent  net 
profits,  based  upon  the  cash  realized, 
and  an  employee  earns  $1,000  per  year, 
that  employee  will  draw  a  bonus  of 
$100,    or   if   we    earn   fifteen    per   cent, 


Eight-foot  Horseshoe  of  Roses  for  Movie  Stars. 


that  employee  will  draw  a  bonus  of 
$150.  This  affects  every  employee  in 
our  establishment,  from  the  porters  np. 
This  plan  puts  them  on  notice  that  it 
is  up  to  them.  Take,  for  instance,  the 
truck  driver;  it  is  up  to  him  to  see 
that  he  is  polite  and  courteous  to  every 
customer,  for  if  he  fails  to  make  satis- 
factory delivery,  or  should  disagree 
with  a  customer  and  we  lose  that  cus- 
tomer, it  affects  his  pocketbook.  If  he 
makes  prompt  delivery  and  makes  a 
pleased  customer,  he  benefits  thereby. 
The  store  porter  will  realize  that  it 
is  up  to  him  to  see  that  the  store  is 
kept  in  trim  order,  and  all  other  little 
necessary  details.  If  he  fails  to  con- 
tribute his  pro  rata  to  what  goes  to 
make  a  profitable  concern,  he  will  fail 
to  derive  his  share  of  the  profits. 

Plan  Is  Success. 

This  plan  has  been  a  success  up  to 
the  present  time  and  I  am  confident 
that  it  will  prove  a  success  in  every 
florist's  biisiness.  It  is  the  best  invest- 
ment that  I  have  ever  made. 

Regarding  our  organization  as  a  whole 
I  shall  first  enumerate  the  responsibil- 
ities of  the  heads  of  the  departments. 
The  sales  manager  is  responsible  for  the 
conduct  of  tpe  store  as  a  whole;  also, 
in  addition  to  this,  he  devotes  his  at- 
tention to  the  development  of  sales, 
which  embodies  advertising  and  serv- 
ice. 

The  service  manager  is  held  respon- 
sible for  the  delivery  of  the  goods,  for 
the  upkeep  of  the  automobiles  and  all 
details  pertaining  to  deliveries.  The 
credit  manager,  who  also  has  charge  of 
the  bookkeeping  department,  is  respon- 
sible for  the  handling  of  accounts  and 
collection  of  all  bills  and  is  held  strictly 
accountable  to  the  central  organization 
for  the  work. 

We  have  our  business  divided  into 
four  parts:  First,  the  growing  of  flowers 
is  conducted  by  a  corporation  composed 
of  stockholders  of  prominent  business 
men.  This  is  separate  from  the  retail 
store.  We  buy  from  this  concern  the 
same  as  we  buy  from  anyone  else.  The 
superintendent  of  growing  is  held  ac- 
countable for  the  affairs  of  the  range. 
We  are  just  entering  into  the  nursery 
business  and  are  conducting  the  busi- 
ness the  same  as  the  florists'  business, 
and  the  growing  manager  will  devote 
his  entire  thought  and  energy  to  the 
growing  of  stock. 

No  Unnecessary  Problems. 

We  are  opening  a  retail  nursery  yard 
and  display  grounds  and  the  manager 
of  this  department  is  expected  to  de- 
vote his  entire  energy  and  time  to  sell- 
ing nursery  and  bedding  plants.  In 
other  words,  our  growers  are  not  con- 
fronted with  problems  of  the  retailing 
of  their  stock  and  the  central  organiza- 
tion is  not  confronted  with  the  growers' 
problems. 

This  makes  four  organizations,  with 
four  separate  bookkeeping  systems,  each 
one  working  within  itself  and  not  de- 
pending upon  the  other.  I  am  the  head 
of  tlie  four  organizations  and  draw  a 
salary  from  each  organization,  the  same 
as  the  other  employees. 

I  am  giving  you  an  outline  of  the 
work  of  our  organization  as  a  whole  and 
I  am  pleased  to  report  at  this  time  that 
it  is  producing  satisfactory  results.  It

SMALL'S  STEAMER  FLOWERS. 

In  a  season  notable  for  its  steamer 
orders,  the  flowers  which  went  aboard 
the  steamer  Canopic  July  8  for  the  film 
stars  of  the  George  B.  Seitz  Co.  are 
worthy  of  mention.  In  this  party  were 
several  whose  names  are  familiar  to 
movie  fans,  bound  for  Spain,  to  make 
a  picture  with  real  Castilian  color. 
Upon  their  departure  an  order  for  flow- 
ers was  received  by  J.  H.  Small  &  Sons, 
who  have  stores  in  both  Washington  and 
New  York.  From  the  latter  establish- 
ment came  the  flowers  shown  in  the  ac- 
companying illustrations.  The  beauty 
of  the  floral  gifts  appealed  to  the 
camera  men,  who  took  the  photographs 
which  are  reproduced. 

One  shows  an  8-foot  horseshoe  of 
pink  rambler  and  American  Beauty 
roses,  on  which  is  a  ribbon  inscribed, 
' '  The  Gang  Is  Still  with  You. ' '  Stand- 
ing in  the  arch  of  the  horseshoe  are,  at 
the  left.  Miss  June  Caprice;  in  the  cen- 
t:er,  George  B.  Seitz,  the  director,  and, 
at  the  right,  Miss  Margaret  Courtot. 

In  the  other  view  the  wreath  is  in 
the  background.  In  front,  the  ladies 
each  hold  an  arm  bouquet.  Mrs.  Law- 
son,  at  the  left,  has  one  of  Francis  Scott 
Key  roses  and  gypsophila.  Next  is  Miss 
June  Caprice,  bearing  one  of  Columbia

The  Market. 

It  might  be  said  that  the  usual  sum- 
mer dullness  is  on,  but  it  is  not  so  dull. 
Business  has  kept  up  well.  Many  con- 
ventions have  been  held  here  this  sum- 
mer and  the  trade  has  greatlj^  benefited 
by  them. 

Cut  flowers  have  not  been  nor  are  any 
too  plentiful.  Sweet  peas  and  astern 
have  just  made  their  appearance,  but 
the  quality  is  not  high.  Gladioli  are 
good. 

Annual  Picnic. 

Ernie  Ilayward  was  responsible  for 
the  great  success  of  the  annual  picnic  of 
the  Montreal  Gardeners'  and  Florists' 
Club,  held  at  Lavaltrie,  thirty-five 
miles  down  the  river.  The  weather  was 
ideal  and  about  300  attended. 

Archie  Ferguson  sent  a  load  of  ever- 
green and  perennial  flowers  from  Dupuy 
&  Ferguson's  nurseries  at  Lavaltrie  to 
decorate  the  boat  for  the  trip.  Frank 
Gamache  and  W.  C.  Hall  decorated  the 
pilot  house,  the  railings  and  all  around 
the  deck  and  no  one  had  to  ask  which 
was  the  florists'  boat. 

The  games  and  races  were  announced 
in  great  style  by  Harry  Pare  and  were 
run  off  to  everybody's  satisfaction.  The 
baby  contest  was  close,  A.  Wilshire  and 


John  Walsh  having  a  hard  time  deciding 
the  winner.  They  seemed  partial  to 
golden  hair. 

James  McKenna  was  taken  ill  the  day 
before  the  picnic  and  could  not  oflSciate. 
He  was  to  be  judge  of  the  beauty  con- 
test and  final  referee  in  all  events,  but 
A.  Wilshire  took  his  place  in  the  beauty 
contest  and  was  considered  a  good 
judge. 

William  Ilorobin  was  the  official 
scorer  and  John  Walsh  had  charge  of 
the  dancing.  Charles  Smith  had  charge 
of  the  hot  water  supj)ly  and  put  every- 
body in  deep. 

Various  Notes. 

Miss  Cairns  reports  but  little  falling 
off  in  the  demand  for  flowers  and  says 
the  date  of  her  vacation  has  not  been 
fixed. 

George  Hopton  is  cutting  some  fine 
gladioli.  He  is  a  great  fisherman  and 
tries  his  skill  every  week-end. 

Arthur  Legare  has  his  chrysanthe- 
mum houses  in  good  shape.  He  will  dis- 
continue carnations  and  grow  more 
sweet  peas.  He  is  limiting  his  bulb  or- 
ders this  vear.  W.  C.  H.

Important  Feature. 

There  is  one  feature  of  this  projiosi- 
!  ion  that  is  fail-  and  re;tsonal»le  and  puts 
IS  in  a  positi(ui  1(1  know  how  lonu  we 
<hall  ha\c  an  (>iL;ani/.;i1  ion  intact.  It 
is  ai^reeii  hy  all  p.iitics  that  in  an  event 
I  ma;,'  want  a  (hange  in  the  plan,  1  yive 
six  nionths  '  net  ice.  It  is  also  nyreed  that 
every  employee  L;i\'e  •-ix  months'  notice 
in  cast'  of  withdrawal  from  the  oi^ani 
/■.ation.  TJie  failure  to  <:i\('  notice  in 
case  tliey  withdraw  will  f(ut'(Mt  the  ac- 
i-rued  profits  on  the  lio(d\s  and  some 
other     jieiialtics     that      we     have     ayi-eeil 


n]>on.  .  Ill  the  case  of  the  dissolution 
of  this  plan,  only  the  accounts  on  the 
hooks  and  not  the  merehandise  on  liand 
will  lie  considered,  as  that  eliminates 
complication    and   simplifies  matters. 

W'l'  also  make  a  provision  for  branch 
stores  tliat  we.  miylit  see  tit  to  organize. 
If  any  memlier  of  the  central  organiza- 
tion is  made  manager  of  the  branch, 
he  or  she  will  maintain  one-half  of  the 
original  jter  cent  in  the  organizution  and 
in  ••idditiou  will  iiarticijiate  to  the  ex- 
tent of  fift(H'ii  jier  cent  of  the  profits 
of  the  braiudi  store,  based  upon  the 
aboxc  ]i]an.  Ilo\ve\'er,  all  profit-sharing 
and  bonus  (diecks  paid  out  by  the  branch 
and  central  store  shall  be  treated  as  an 
oN'erhead  exjiense,  and  the  central  or- 
ganization will  then  Ix'  paid  accord 
ingly. 

Includes  All  Employees.. 

As  stated,  the  ])laii  from  January  1  to 
duly  1  only  affected  the  heads  of  the  dc- 
liartnients.  8ince  .July  1  every  em})loyee 
(larticijiates  on  the  following  basis: 
Whatever  net  [lercentage  our  store 
earns,  every  employee  will  receive  the 
s.inie  percentage  of  his  annual  salary. 
l"or  instance,  if  we  earn  ten  ]ier  cent  net 
pidlits,  based  upon  the  cash  realized, 
and  an  emidoyee  earns  .^1,000  per  year, 
that  employe('  will  draw  a  bonus  of 
.'f^KHi,    or    if    we    earn    fifteen    jier    cent. 


Eight-foot  Horseshoe  of   Roses  for  Movie  Stars. 


that  employee  will  draw  a  bonus  of 
,$150.  This  affects  every  employee  in 
our  establishment,  from  the  porters  up. 
This  plan  ])uts  them  on  notice  that  it 
is  up  to  them.  Take,  for  instance,  the 
truck  driver;  it  is  u]i  to  him  to  see 
that  he  is  })olite  and  courteous  to  every 
customer,  for  if  he  fails  to  make  satis 
factory  delivery,  or  should  disagree 
witli  a  customer  and  we  lose  that  cus- 
tomer, it  afl'ects  his  pocketbook.  If  he 
makes  prom[)t  delivery  and  makes  a 
jdeased  customer,  he  benefits  thereby. 
The  store  porter  will  realize  that  i1 
is  up  to  liim  to  see  that  the  store  is 
kept  in  trim  order,  and  all  other  little 
necessary  details.  If  ho  fails  to  con 
tribute  his  ]iro  rata  to  what  goes  to 
make  a  profitable  concern,  he  will  fail 
to  derive   his  share  of  the  profits. 

Plan  Is  Success. 

This   ])lan   has   lieen   a   success    up   to 
the    ])resent    time    and    I    am    confident 
that    it    will    ]irove    a    success    in    every 
florist's  biisiness.     It  is  the  best  invest 
ment  Mdiat   I*  have  ever  made. 

Regarding  our  organization  as  a  whole 
I  shall  first  enumerate  the  responsibil- 
ities of  the  heads  of  the  departments. 
The  sales  manager  is  responsible  for  the 
conduct  of  the  store  as  a  whole;  also, 
in  .addition  to  this,  he  devotes  his  at 
tenlion  to  tlie  development  of  sales, 
which  embodies  advertising  and  serv- 
ice. 

The  service  manager  is  held  respon 
sible  for  the  delivery  of  the  goods,  for 
the  upkeej)  of  the  automobiles  and  all 
details  jiertainJng  to  deliveries.  The 
credit  manager,  who  also  has  charge  of 
the  bookkeeping  department,  is  respon- 
sible for  the  handling  of  accounts  and 
collection  of  all  bills  and  is  held  strictly 
accountable  to  the  central  organization 
for  the  work. 

We  have  our  business  divided  into 
four  parts:  First,  the  growing  of  flowers 
is  conducted  bj'  a  corporation  composed 
of  stockholders  of  ^iromineut  business 
men.  This  is  separate  from  the  retail 
store.  We  buy  from  this  concern  the 
same  as  we  buy  from  anyone  else.  The 
siijierintendent  of  growing  is  held  ac- 
countable for  the  affairs  of  the  range. 
We  are  .iust  entering  into  the  nursery 
business  and  are  conducting  the  busi- 
ness the  same  as  the  florists'  business, 
.and  the  growing  manager  will  devote 
his  entire  thought  .and  energy  to  the 
growing  of  stock. 

No  Unnecessary  Problems. 

We  are  o|iening  a  ndail  nursery  yard 
,ind  ilisjijay  grounds  and  the  manager 
of  this  department  is  expected  to  de- 
vote his  entire  energy  and  time  to  sell- 
ing nursery  and  bedding  ]dants.  In 
other  words,  our  growers  are  not  con- 
fronted with  jiroblems  of  the  retailing 
of  their  stock  and  the  central  organiza- 
tion is  not  confronted  with  the  growers' 
protdems. 

This  makes  four  organizations,  with 
four  separate  bookkeeping  systems,  each 
one  working  within  itself  and  not  de- 
pending uiioi!  the  other.  I  am  the  head 
of  the  four  organizations  and  draw  a 
salaiy  from  e.a(di  organization,  the  same 
as  the  other  i  niphiyees. 

I  am  giving  you  .an  outline  of  the 
work  of  our  organization  as  a  whole  and 
I  am  pleased  to  report  at  this  lime  that 
it  is  producing  satisfactory  results.  It 
is  oiK^  that  I  liave  been  working  on  for 
seviMi  ye.ars  .and  I  have  ,iust  now  ac- 
complished,   the    desired   results.      I   am

THIRTY-SIXTH  ANinJAL  CONVENTION. 

The  program  of  the  thirty-sixth  annual  convention  of  the  Society  of  American 
Florists,  to  be  held  at  Clevelahd,  August  17  to  19,  contains  much  of  interest  to  the 
trade.  The  organization  of  the  National  Flower  Growers'  Association,  to  which 
the  afternoon  session  of  the  final  day  is  to  be  devoted,  will  be  important.  Ad- 
dresses by  J.  S.  Kemper,  of  Chicago,  on  "Insurance,"  and  by  Major  P.  F. 
O'Keefe,  of  Boston,  on  "Publicity,"  and  discussions  on  such  topics  as  "A  Stand- 
ard Grading  for  Eoses, "  "Is  Uniformity  in  Prices  Possible?"  "Parcel  Post 
Insurance"  and  "The  Fuel  Situation"  will  make  live  sessions.  Max  Schling's 
demonstration  of  retail  work  is  something  new.  And,  of  course,  the  business  of 
our  great  society  affords  keen  interest  for  all.  Amendments  to  the  constitution 
and  by-laws  will  be  offered,  (1)  discontinuing  the  national  credit  and  collection 
department  committee  and  instituting  an  audit  and  finance  committee,  (2)  reliev- 
ing the  treasurer  of  responsibility  for  the  society's  investments,  (3)  increasing 
the  executive  board's  limit  of  appropriation  without  action  of  the  society  from 
$100  to  $1,000  and  (4)  increasing  the  number  of  election  books  and  voting  stations 
from  four  to  five.  A  recommendation  of  the  executive  board  is  also  to  be  voted 
on  providing,  "That  the  sum  of  $7,500  be  appropriated  to  the  publicity  campaign 
fund  for  1920,  to  be  used  only  if  needed  during  the  year's  campaign."  The 
sessions  of  the  convention  will  be  held  at  the  Hotel  Hollenden,  two  minutes'

THE   SOCIETY'S  MONEY. 


Subject  of  Amendments. 

So  rapid  has  the  Society  of  Ameri- 
can Florists  grown  of  late  and  so  large 
have  become  its  finances  that  this  year 
several  steps  have  been  planned  to  fa- 
cilitate their  handling  by  the  society's 
officers.  These  are  covered  in  the  amend- 
ments to  be  offered  for  the  members' 
consideration  at  Cleveland  in  August. 

The  first  of  these,  in  addition  to  strik- 
ing out  the  paragraph  referring  to  the 
extinct  national  credit  and  collection 
department  committee,  provides  for  the 
appointment  of  an  audit  and  finance 
committee  by  adding  to  article  II,  sec- 
tion 4,  the  following,  as  paragraph  (d) : 

The  president  assuming  office  January  1,  1921, 
shall  appoint  three  members  selected  from 
among  the  permanently  elected  directors  on  the 
executive  board,  one  for  one  year,  one  for  two 
years,  and  one  for  three  years:  and  each  next 
elected  president  upon  taking  office  shall  appoint 
one  such  director  for  three  years.  It  shall  be 
the  duty  of  this  committee  to  audit  the  iKwks 
of  the  secretary  and  treasurer  at  least  once 
each  year.  Just  prior  to  the  annual  meeting  of 
the  executive  board.  The  committee  shall  have 
the  power  to  make  temporary  loans  for  the 
society,  or  any  of  its  duly  elected  committees, 
and  shall  have  charge  of  the  Investment  of  all 
funds  of   the   society. 

Since  this  committee  is  to  have  charge 
of  the  investment  of  the  society 's  funds, 
the  reference  to  investments  will,  by 
an  amendment  to  article  II,  section  3, 
paragraph  (d),  be  stricken  out  of  the 
description  of  the  treasurer's  duties, 
relieving  him  of  that  responsibility.  By 
the  same  amendment  the  chairman  of 
the  audit  and  finance  committee  will  be 
added  to  the  list  of  officers  upon  whose 
approval  the  treasurer  shall  pay  bills. 

Another  amendment  will  substitute 
the  sum  of  $1,000  for  $100  in  article  III, 
as  the  limit  of  appropriation  that  can  be 
made  bj  the  executive  board  without  ac- 
tion of  the  society  at  its  annual  con- 
vention. Hitherto,  this  provision  has 
been  got  around  by  the  board's  voting 
several  appropriations  of  $100  for  the 
same  purpose.  The  change  saves  the 
board  that  labor. 


CONVENTION   HELPS    MEMBERS. 


Solving  Your  Problems. 

In  little  more  than  two  weeks'  time 
those  of  us  who  have  decided  that  it 
is  for  our  good  to  attend  the  convention 
in  Cleveland,  August  17  to  19,  will  be  en- 
route  to  the  convention  city. 

Many  of  us,  no  doubt,  will  carry  with 
us  little  problems  pertaining  to  our 
every  day  business  life  which  we  are 
unable  to  solve  to  our  own  satisfaction, 
owing,  perhaps  to  a  limited  experience, 
or  absence  of  opportunity  in  our  own 
neighborhood  to  get  information  or  ad- 
vice which  might  help  us  in  making  de- 
cisions. 

The  convention  furnishes  full  and  am- 
ple means  for  the  discussion  of  any  sub- 
ject pertaining  to  the  trade.  It  is  not 
necessary  that  a  subject  be  one  for  pres- 
entation on  the  convention  floor;  it  may 
concern  only  the  one  personally  inter- 
ested in  it  and  discussions  in  meeting 
are  confined  largely  to  subjects  of  gen- 
eral interest. 

The  floor  discussions  do  not  embrace 
all  the  informative  benefits  of  the  eon-

vention;  far  from  it.  Our  personal  prob- 
lems are  matters  for  discussion  with  our 
brother  florists,  whom  we  meet  at  this 
annual  gathering  and  who  are  ever 
ready  to  detail  their  experiences,  good 
or  bad,  along  particular  lines.  A  plant- 
ing may  have  gone  wrong;  there  may 
be  a  doubt  as  to  the  advisability  of 
growing  a  certain  product;  a  difficulty 
may  exist  in  the  way  of  a  profitable 
marketing;  perhaps  a  heating  system  is 
not  working  well;  a  method  of  propa- 
gation may  be  faulty;  insect  troubles, 
disease,  fertilizers,  plant  varieties;  all 
may  entail  problems  on  which  enlight- 
enment is  sought.  The  numerous  little 
bands  always  at  our  convention  will 
be  found  ready  and  anxious  to  help  with 
such  questions  and  we  most  assuredly 
will  get  what  we  seek.  At  the  conven- 
tion we  become  one  great  family,  each 
member  striving  to  help  the  other  when 
help  is  needed,  and  this  good  fellowship 
is  one  of  the  greatest  charms  of  the 
gathering. 

It  may  be  that  many  florists  who  have 
not  yet  joined  our  society  do  not  look 
upon  our  organization  from  this  point 
of  view.  To  all  such  I  emphasize  the 
fact  that  we  are  a  brotherhood,  as  well 
as  a  business  organization,  and  they 
•can  ill  afford  to  hold  aloof.

Call  to  Cleveland. 

Last  call  for  delegates  to  come  to 
Cleveland  August  19  and  help  to  or- 
ganize a  National  FloWftr  Growers'  As- 
sociation, 't^ 

It  is  not  necessary  1^  be  a  regularly 
appointed  delegate  to  attend  this  or- 
ganization meeting.  All  growers  are 
perfectly  welcome  and  their  presence  is 
much  desired. 

The  many  reasons  why  such  an  or- 
ganization should  be  formed  have  been 
fully  set  forth  in  the  various  addresses 
and  letters  published  in  the  trade  press 
since  this  movement  was  first  launched, 
at  the  American  Carnation  Society's 
meeting  in  Chicago  last  January.  It  is 
not  necessary  for  one  to  be  in  favor  of 
this  organization  to  attend,  because  if 
there  is  any  reason  why  we  should  not 
organize,  the  best  time  to  find  this  out 
is  before  we  start.  Many  times  opposi- 
tion is  the  greatest  asset  towards  final 
success;  so  we  want  all  who  are  in  any 
way  interested,  for  or  against  this  move- 
ment, to  come  and  voice  their  senti- 
ments. 

We  will  have  forms  of  prospective 
constitutions  and  by-laws  for  local  dis- 
tricts at  this  meeting  for  distribution. 
Also,  much  information  can  be  gathered 
from  growers  present  who  have  local 
organizations  already  working,  and  so 
it  will  surely  be  worth  the  while  for 
every  grower  to  attend  this  meeting. 

We,  the  committee  to  whom  the  mat- 
ter of  drafting  a  constitution  and  by- 
laws and  the  working  up  of  interest  for 
this  organization  meeting  were  referred, 
liave  tried  to  get  a  few  powers  chosen 
from  every  community  in  the  country 
to  act  as  representatives  or  delegates 
for  all  the  growers  of  such  community. 

The  Delegates. 

The  following  is  a  list  of  delegates 
<^hosen  to  represent  their  various  dis- 
tricts at  the  organization  meeting  of

T.  J.  NOLL. 

WHEN  the  florists  of  Kansas  City,  Mo.,  formed  the  Kansas  City  Florists'  Club 
July  5  and  looked  over  their  members  for  a  president  to  guide  their  club 
through  its  period  of  organization,  they  unanimously  chose  T.  J.  Noll,  president  of 
the  T.  J.  Noll  Floral  Co.,  1117-19  McGee  street.  Until  recently,  when  he  sold 
his  interest  to  A.  L.  Randall  and  Frank  Johnson,  of  Chicago,  Mr.  Noll  was  head 
of  T.  J.  Noll  &  Co.,  1108-10  Grand  avenue,  which  is  now  being  operated  as  the 
Kansas  City  Wholesale  Cut  Flower  Co.,  with  L.  R.  Bohannon  as  manager.  Mr. 
Noll  has  grown  up  in  the  trade.  At  the  age  of  19  he  was  a  rose  grower  in  green- 
houses in  the  east.  He  was  in  the  retail  florists'  business  for  thirteen  years  and 
seven  years  ago  started  in  the  wholesale  business  in  Kansas  City.

The  Market. 

The  market  last  week  experienced  a 
decrease  in  business  from  the  previous 
week.  In  general,  business  has  taken 
a  decided  drop.  There  is  an  abundance 
of  stock,  but  no  demand.  Gladioli  make 
up  the  largest  glut,  there  being  so  many 
that  they  can  be  bought  at  one's  own 
price.  Lilies  are  still  holding  their  own, 
owing  to  the  fact  that  there  are  few  ar- 
riving. Asters  are  becoming  more 
plentiful  as  the  season  goes  on  and  they 
are  in  good  condition.     Garden  flowers

saek  as  Shasta  daisies,  gaillardias, 
delphiniums,  scabiosa  and  strawflowers 
are  about  at  an  end.  Outdoor  sweet 
peas  are  still  holding  on.  Rubrum  lilies 
are  arriving  in  more  abundance  than 
ever  before  this  season,  but  the  demand 
is  only  fair.  Roses  are  arriving  about 
the  same  as  usual  and  are  going  well, 
but  bring  a  low  price. 

Various  Notes. 

G.  E.  Critchell  has  received  the  first 
green  galax  of  the  season  and  also  is 
getting  some  extra  fancy  asters  from

tion trip  through  Indiana  and  Illinois, 
lasting  about  three  weeks.  His  store

last  week. 

The  William  Murphy  Co.  has  been  re- 
ceiving some  good  America  gladioli. 
Miss  Laura  F.  Murphy  is  enjoying  her

done  him  much  good.  G.  H.  K. 


TORONTO,  ONT, 


The  Market, 

This  is  the  quiet  season,  when  flowers 
are  scarce  and  business  is  comparatively 
slow.  Many  of  the  florists  are  seeking 
the  country  and  letting  the  staff  off 
for  a  holiday.  There  are  a  large  number 
of  weddings  and  there  has  been  a  big 
demand  for  Sweetheart  roses  for  bridal 
1)ouquets,  though  other  roses  are  fair 
for  this  time  of  the  year.  Carnations 
are  also  good.  Gladioli  are  now  obtain- 
able in  large  quantities, 

^  Convention  News, 

The  annual  meeting  of  the  Canadian 
Retail  Florists'  Association  will  be  held 


I  at  Hamilton  Thursday,  August  12,  in 
conjunction  with  the  convention  of  the 
C,  H.  A,  Secretary  Silas  McFadden 
has  sent  out  several  hundred  notices 
and  a  large  attendance  of  retail  florists 
is  expected.  PreTsMent  George  M, 
Geraghty,  who  is  summering  at  his  cot- 
tage, Pilgrims'  Rest,  Georgian  bay,  will 
return  for  the  convention. 

The  proposed  constitution  which  will 
bring  about  the  amalgamation  of  these 
bodies  has  been  drawn  up.  The  proposed 
name  is  the  Society  of  Canadian  Flo- 
rists and  Ornamental  Horticulturists. 
The  membership  will 'include  any  per- 
son interested  in  the  advancement  of 
floriculture,  ornamental  horticulture  or 
allied  trades.  The  annual  fee  is  $2, 
or  $25  for  life  membership.  Money 
from  life  memberships  will  form  a  re- 
serve fund.  Resolutions  will  be  intro- 
duced to  provide  for  the  affiliation  of 
kindred  associations  and  for  the  form- 
ing of  different  sections,  such  as  retail, 
professional  grower,  private  gardener, 
etc.,  should  this  be  found  advisable,

acknowledge  how  much  they  owe  to  Leo 
Niessen  on  the  silver  anniversary  of  his 
entrance  into  this  profession,  August  1

A  Tribute. 


Jacob  Schulz  is  no  more!  The  dean 
of  the  Louisville  florists,  the  friend  and 
counselor  of  the  struggling  young  man 
just  embarking  upon  a  business  career 
with  little  or  no  means,  the  honest,  up- 
right, conscientious  type  of  German 
manhood  transplanted  upon  American 
soil  for  two  generations,  has  passed  into 
"the  undiscovered  country,  from  whose 
bourn  no  traveler  returns." 

Verily  a  noble  man  hath  gone  from 
our  midst!  I  can  never  forget  the  moral 
— and  I  might  say  the  financial — en- 
couragement given  me  by  this  friend 
of  the  needy  and  struggliilg  upon  my 
first  visit  to  Louisville  thirty-two  years 
ago.  When  the  world  looked  dark  and 
things  in  general  were  most  discourag- 
ing, it  was  Jacob  Schulz  who  came  to 
my  riescue  by  his  encouragement,  advice 
and  suggestions,  putting  new  life,  as  it 
were,  into  me. 

Jacob  Schulz  has  left  a  host  of 
friends,  who  will  sincerely  mourn  bis 
loss.  S.  S.  Skidelsky.

Jacob  Schulz. 

Jacob  Schulz,  of  Louisville,  Ky.,  one 
of  the  pioneers  of  the  trade  in  that  city, 
died  July  21  of  acute  palpitation  of  the 
heart,  at  the  home  of  his  daughter,  Mrs. 
Frances  Luking,  in  Parkerton,  Wyo.  He 
was  born  in  Baden-Baden,  Germany, 
July  25,  1842,  and  was  thus  four  days 
less  than  78  years  old  at  the  time  of  his 
death. 

Mr.  Schulz  received  a  thorough  train- 
ing in  Germany  and  when  he  came  to 
this  country  and  to  Louisville  in  1863  he 
at  once  took  charge  of  the  estate  of 
Colonel  Alexander,  at  that  time  one  of 
the  show  plaxies  around  Louisville  and 
now  a  part  of  Cherokee  park.  In 
1873  he  started  in  business  for  himself 
at  831  Cherokee  road,  from  which  ad- 
dress he  conducted  all  of  his  business 
until  1904,  when  he  bought  the  retail 
business  of  the  F.  Morat's  Sons  Co.,  the 
store  at  that  time  being  near  the  corner 
of  Fourth  and  "Walnut  streets.  A  few 
years  later  he  purchased  the  property  at 
550  Fourth  avenue  and  continued  a  re- 
tail store  until  about  four  years  ago, 
when  he  disposed  of  the  retail  business 
to  the  Jacob  Schulz  Co.,  which  had  been 
incorporated  by  his  son,  George  E. 
Schulz,  its  present  president. 

Mr.  Schulz  was  notable  both  for  his 
love  of  plant  life  and  for  his  ability  to 
impart  his  knowledge  to  his  employees; 
many  successful  members  of  the  trade 
owe  their  progress  in  part  to  his  instruc- 
tion and  guidance.  He  also  believed 
strongly  in  trade  organizations.  He  was 
one  of  the  twenty-five  pioneer  members 
of  the  S.  A.  F.,  served  several  times  as 
the  state  vice-president  for  that  society 
and  was  a  regular  attendant  at  the  con- 
ventions until  the  last  two  or  three 
years,  when,  because  of  his  age,  he  was 
not  so  regular.  He  was  a  charter  mem- 
ber of  the  Kentucky  Society  of  Florists 
and  served  as  its  president  a  number  of 
times.  Except  in  the  last  two  years, 
it  was  never  too  hot  or  too  cold  for  him 
to  attend  the  monthly  meetings  of  the 
state  society  and  enter  into  all  its  activ- 
ities. He  was  also  a  member  of  the 
American  Carnation  Society. 

In  1877  he  married  Miss  Elizabeth 
Morat,  daughter  of  Francis  Morat,  who 
was  the  pioneer  florist  of  Louisville. 

Mr.  Schulz  is  survived  by  his  wife, 
two  daughters,  Mrs.  Joseph  A.  Fueglein, 
of  Louisville,  and  Mrs.  Frances  Luking, 
of  Parkerton,  Wyo.;  four  sons,  Frank  G. 
J^chulz,  city  salesman  for  the  Frank  A. 
Menne  Candy  Co.;  George  E.  Schulz, 
president  of  the  Jacob  Schulz  Co.;  Fred 
Ij.  Schulz,  who  was  connected  with  his 
father  in  business,  and  Henry  J.  Schulz, 
M  photographer.  There  are  also  three 
brothers,  two  sisters  and  eleven  grand- 
•hildren  to  mourn  his  death. 

The  funeral  services  were  held  Mon- 
lay  morning,  July  26,  from  St.  Martin's 
'toman  Catholic  church;  interment  was 
in  Cave  Hill  cemetery.  The  active  pall- 
bearers were  present  and  former  em- 
ployees who  had  been  with  Mr.  Schulz 
for  long  periods  of  time.  The  display  of 
dowers  was  particularly  beautiful; 
many  of  the  floral  tokens  of  regard  came 
from  distant  points. 

To  the  trade  around  Louisville  Mr. 
Schulz  was  lovingly  known  and  always 
'Slled  **bo88."     To  the  writer  he  was

Edwin  G.  Scott. 

Edwin  G.  Scott,  owner  of  the  Marsh - 
field  Florist  Co.,  Marshfield,  Ore.,  died 
July  16  at  Camp  Lewis,  Washington, 
at  the  age  of  35  years.  He  was  killed 
by  the  explosion  of  a  6-inch  rifle  while 
at  target  practice  with  his  company  of 
the  Oregon  Coast  Artillery,  Oregon  Na- 
tional Guard. 

Mr.  Scott  was  born  in  Nebraska  and 
moved  to  Garfield,  Wash.,  in  1900.  After 
completing  a  high  school  course  at  Gar- 
field he  attended  the  floricultural  courses 
at  the  Massachusetts  Agricultural  Col- 
lege, at  Amherst. 

In  1906  he  built  two  small  greenhouses 
at  Garfield;  these  were  torn  down  in 
1908  to  be  replaced  by  larger  and  more 
modern  houses.  At  this  time  he  was 
joined  by  his  brother,  Louis  R.  Scott, 
in  a  partnership  under  the  name  of  the 
Roselawn  Greenhouses.  In  1911  the 
firm  bought  J.  L.  Bourn's  range  at  Mos- 
cow, Ida.,  to  which  it  moved  the  Gar- 
field range.  Because  of  poor  health 
Edwin  Scott  in  1915  severed  his  connec- 
tion with  the  firm  of  Roselawn  Green- 
houses and  moved  to  Marshfield,  Ore., 
where  he  engaged  in  business  under  the 
firm  name  of  the  Marshfield  Florist  Co., 
having  bought  the  store  and  greenhouses 
of  the  Drew  Floral  Co.  He  had  re- 
cently been  experimenting  with  the 
shipment  of  cut  rhododendron  blooms 
for  April,  May  and  June  use  and  had 
shipped,  during  the  season  just  past, 
large  quantities  of  the  blooms  to  various 
points  west  of  the  Rocky  mountains. 


He  is  survived  by  his  wife,  who  was 
formerly  Miss  Ella  Farver,  of  Des 
Moines,  la.,  and  to  whom  he  was  mar- 
ried in  1912.  She  has  been  closely  as- 
sociated in  the  business  with  her  hus- 
band. 

Funeral  services  were   held  from  the 
Methodist  church  July  19.    All  business 
houses  remained  closed  during  the  serv- 
ices. L.  B.  S.

Edward  Johnson,'  who,  with  his  wife, 
was  attacked  in  his  home,  852  East 
Twenty-ninth  street,  Flatbush,  Brook- 
lyn, N.  Y.,  July  4,  died  July  17  as  a 
result  of  the  attack.  Mrs.  Johnson  died 
July  6.  J.  H.  P. 

Mrs.  M.  S.  Foreman. 

ilrs.  M.  S.  Foreman,  widow  of  the 
late  Charles  H.  Foreman,  died  at  her 
home  in  Louisiana,  Mo.,  July  18,  after 
a  brief  illness  following  a  stroke  of 
apoplexy  the  Friday  before,  from  which 
she  never  regained  consciousness.  Mrs. 
Foreman  continued  the  florists'  business 
after  the  death  of  her  husband  and 
built  up  a  reputation  as  a  successful 
business  woman.  She  was  assisted  in 
the  business  by  her  daughter,  Miss  Ruth 
Foreman,  who  will  continue  to  operate 
it.

Professor  John  Macoun,  a  leading  bot- 
anist of  Canada,  died  at  his  home  at

RESULTS. 

We  give  them.    You  get  them. 

We  both  have  them. 

Have  you  installed  your  summer  win- 
dow display? 

There  are  only  two  weeks  left  to  pre- 
pare to  go  to  the  S.  A.  F.  convention  at 
■Cleveland,  August  17  to  19. 

Neither  flowers  nor  plants  can  be 
wholesaled  cheaper  next  winter  without 
inflicting  a  loss  on  the  growers. 

Any  man  who  can  maintain  the  pro- 
duction from  his  greenhouses  next  winter 
should  have  no  trouble  making  them  pay. 

A  TEAR  ago  many  florists  said  another 
season  could  not  be  so  profitable  as  the 
one  then  ended,  but  the  prediction  proved 
not  to  be  the  fact. 

So  strongly  are  retailers  developing 
telegraph  business  that  the  list  of  those 
in  the  Pink  Part  keeps  right  on  growing 
in  the  summer  time. 

All  talk  of  an  approaching  panic  has 
•ceased.  Business  men  now  feel  assured 
that  there  will  be  nothing  more  than  a 
slight'business  recession  between  now  and 
election — and  then  prosperity  for  all. 

>  Quarantine  37  has  been  in  operation 
fourteen  months.  Will  its  advocates 
please  point  out  some  place,  even  one, 
in  which  real  progress  has  been  made  in 
developing  a  home  supply  of  the  stock 
shut  out? 

German  exporters  of  florists'  supplies, 
who  have  not  been  heard  from  in  six 
years,  are  seeking  to  reopen  the  American 
outlet.  They  find  this  country  now  well 
equipped  to  supply  its  own  needs  and  busi- 
ness is  possible  only  on  a  price  basis. 

Many  florists  lay  the  showing  of  in- 
creased business  on  their  books  to  higher 
prices,  and  express  preference  for  a  larger 
turnover  at  lower  figures.  Larger  and 
more  economical  production  seems  the 
only  answer  for  them  till  costs  come  down. 

It  is  distinctly  unfair  to  hold  remit- 
tances for  weeks  when  one  is  sold  out  of 
stock,  at  the  same  time  failing  to  acknowl- 
edge receipt  of  order  or  to  reply  to  in- 
quiries. Any  plantsman  who  so  conducts 
his  affairs,  no  matter  what  his  excuse, 
is  driving  away  customers  he  would  be 
glad  to  have  a  little  later.  Things  won 't 
always  be  as  they  have  been  the  last  two 
years. 


"Thank  yoxj"  at  the  end  of  a  sale  is 
the  beginning  of  another  sale. 

The  dealers  in  florists'  supplies  are 
unanimous  in  reporting  more  active  sum- 
mer business  than  in  any  previous  year, 
indicating  the  trade's  general  confidence 
in  another  big  season. 

What  we  need  in  this  trade  is  a  higher 
standard  of  quality.  Too  much  "bum" 
stuff  is  shipped,  particularly  by  plantsmen 
who  have  obtained  cash  with  order.  A 
nimiber  of  them  seem  never  to  have  heard 
of  the  golden  rule. 

Watch  the  Want  Ads.  They  are  full  of 
opportunities.  You  can  buy  there  any- 
thing from  a  split  tee  to  a  going  con- 
cern; you  can  find  a  job  or  hire  a  helper. 
The  value  of  the  department  to  the  trade 
is  shown  by  the  steady  growth  in  the 
number  of  ads  there  each  week. 

There  will  be  another  shortage  of 
plants  next  spring,  no  doubt,  but  it  will 
be  a  mistake  to  try  to  increase  produc- 
tion if  quality  will  thereby  be  impaired. 
More  money  can  be  made  on  10,000  first- 
class  4-inch  geraniums  than  on  20,000 
which  are  likely  to  be  refused  when  the 
buyer  opens  the  box. 

There  is  a  general  belief  that  economic 
conditions,  especially  as  concerns  fuel  and 
labor,  will  result  in  closing  many  green- 
liouses  during  the  .approaching  winter, 
producing  a  great  shortage  of  stock.  But 
it  would  not  be  wise  to  risk  too  much  on 
that  assumption.  In  this  trade  that  which 
everybody  expects  frequently  fails  to  hap- 
pen. 

-  '  BEWABE  THIS  SWINDLER. 

Unknown  persons  who  ask  loans  of 
florists  are  more  likely  to  be  swindlers 
than  members  of  the  trade,  and  char- 
itable florists  would  do  well  to  make 
certain  the  identity  of  such  individuals 
if  they  wish  to  see  their  money  returned. 
A  young  man  recently  represented  him- 
self as  a  son  of  William  F.  Dreer  to  se- 
cure a  loan  from  a  florist  in  the  east, 
perhaps  the  same  individual  who  has 
secured  money  that  way  several  times 
during  the  last  few  years.  The  late 
William  F.  Dreer,  however,  left  no  male 
relatives  and  none,  assuredly,  of  either 
sex  in  need  of  soliciting  funds  in  such 
a  manner.  This  device  to  defraud  is  one 
of  which  florists  should  beware. 


NOTHING   BUT    CLOUDS. 

Tliough  New  England  growers  find 
comfort  in  the  plans  of  the  interstate 
commerce  commission  for  caring  for 
that  section's  fuel  supply,  the  green- 
house trade  in  the  central  states  sec 
darker  clouds  than  before  in  the  sky — 
nor  are  they  clouds  of  smoke.  The  day 
men  in  almost  all  of  the  Illinois  mines 
have  struck,  not  because  their  per  diem 
wage  of  $6  is  not  already  sufficient  as 
a  daily  income,  but  because  it  is  not 
sufficient  for  support  when  they  can 
earn  it  only  two  days  per  week.  More- 
over, the  operators  say  their  hands  are 
tied  because  the  contract  was  made  by 
a  government  commission  and  they 
might  be  guilty  of  violating  the  Lever 
act  if  they  acceded  to  the  men's  terms. 
So  the  buck  is  passed  to  Washington, 
where  various  officials  are  about  to  do 
something,  but  nothing  has  yet  been 
done.  A  fuel  administrator  may  be 
appointed,  an  embargo  may  be  placed 
on  coal  for  export,  and  some  other 
things  may  be  done,  but  none  of  them 


has  l)een  done.  In  shorty  the  grower  is 
still  waiting  for  the  price  of  coal  to 
come  within  reaching  distance  and,  in- 
stead, sees  the  prospects  of  getting  any 
at  all  receding  farther  away.  This  is 
as  anxious  a  summer  as  the  greenhouse 
trade  has  spent  in*  a  long  time  and 
easier  moments  do  not  appear  to  be 
near. 


SEBVICE   THAT   SEBVES  US. 

This  summer  Alex.  Lurie,  of  the  Blu- 
Maize  Blossom  Shop,  Ann  Arbor,  Mich., 
has  been  engaged  by  the  Cleveland 
board  of  education  to  give  a  course 
of  lectures  on  gardening  to  a  number  of 
school  teachers  who  are  acting  as  super- 
visors of  home  gardens.  The  course  was 
started  by  G.  H.  Pring,  horticulturist 
of  the  Missouri  Botanical  Garden,  and 
was  completed  by  Mr.  Lurie,  who  for- 
merly occupied  the  same  position  in  St. 
Louis. 

It  is  interesting  to  note  in  this  con- 
nection that,  through  the  efforts  of  the 
supervisor  of  school  gardens  of  Cleve- 
land, this  close  coordination  between 
the  practical  man  and  the  teachers  has 
been  obtained.  It  is  a  thought  that  may 
well  be  given  consideration  by  the  many 
florists  in  various  cities  who  are  capable 
of  serving  the  public  needs  in  this 
fashion  and  yet  who  make  no  effort  to 
bring  before  the  public  the  great  bene- 
fits derived  from  the"^ystem  of  public 
school  gardening  as  it  obtains  in  Cleve- 
land. 

Cleveland  aims  to  give  the  children 
some  insight  into  gardening  as  a  house- 
hold necessity  and  an  occupation  for 
spare  time,  but  more  than  that,  the 
school  garden  department  is  preparing 
boys  and  girls  to  go  into  the  business 
as  a  life  work.  Practical  training  is 
given  in  the  high  school  greenhouses, 
the  nursery  and  the  perennial  gardens 
of  the  board  of  education. 

To  the  supervisor,  O.  M.  Eastman,  is 
due  great  credit  for  instituting  the  work 
and  bringing  in  a  high  level  of  effi- 
ciency. The  entire  work,  including  the 
large  tracts  as  well  as  the  small  home 
gardens,  is  not  surpassed  in  other  cities. 

Cooperation  of  this  kind  cannot  but 
result  in  a  great  commercial  benefit  on 
account  of  the  many  factors  involved  in 
the  scope  of  the  work.  Not  only  can 
florists  increase  the  public's  interest  in 
their  own  products,  but  they  can  also 
provide  in  this  fashion  the  recruits  so 
sadly  needed  for  the  further  develop- 
ment of  our  trade. 


BEVEAL    PHILADELPHIA    FBAUD. 

As  an  aftermath  of  the  disclosure  in 
last  week's  issue  of  The  Review  of  the 
fraudulent  offers  of  low-priced  chiffons 
by  the  T.  Franklin  Co.,  Philadelphia,  the 
postal  inspectors,  in  whose  hands  the 
matter  was  placed  by  the  M.  Rice  Co., 
are  undertaking  the  apprehension  of 
those  implicated.  It  was  definitely  es- 
tablished that  the  offer  of  6-inch  chiffon 
bands  in  500-yard  lots  at  7  cents  a  yard 
was  a  fraud,  in  which  more  than  fifty 
florists  were  losers  to  the  extent  of  $35 
to  $600. 

There  is  no  likelihood  that  the  money 
of  these  florists  will  be  recovered,  since 
the  persons  involved  seem  to  have  left 
for  parts  unknown  several  days  before 
the  postal  inspectors  took  the  case. 
Their  departure  is  fortunate  for  a  num- 
ber of  florists  whose  remittances  came 
later,  for  the  accumulation  of  letters 
contained  manv  remittances  not  cashed.

NHWABK,  N.  J. 


The  Maxket. 

The  summer  dull  period  is  on.  While 
business  is  as  good  as  could  be  expected 
for  this  time  of  the  year,  it  has  fallen  off 
in  volume  a  great  deal  from  what  it  was 
a  month  ago.  Asters  are  beginning  to 
come  into  the  market  and  gladioli  are 
daily  arriving  in  larger  quantities. 
From  now  on  until  chrysanthemums  and 
other  fall  flowers  begin  to  arrive,  these 
two  flowers  will  form  the  largest  part  of 
the  trade,  though  there  will  be  roses 
and  other  flowers  for  variety. 

Various  Notes. 

Charles  Luthy  reports  that  while  busi- 
ness is  slack,  as  is  customary  at  this  sea- 
son of  the  year,  he  has  had  much  funeral 
work  during  the  last  couple  of  weeks. 
He  has  been  painting  and  renovating  his 
store. 

More  street  flower  venders  are  seen  in 
Newark  this  year  than  ever  before.

KANSAS  CITY,  MO. 

Ray  Blessing,  head  of  the  shipping 
department  of  the  T.  J.  Noll  Floral  Co., 
is  taking  a  two  weeks'  vacation. 

George  R.  Butchart,  of  St.  Joseph, 
Mo.,  was  in  the  city  July  23  on  his  way 
home  from  La  Cygne,  Kan.,  where  he 
attended  the  funeral  of  his  mother.  Mr. 
Butchart  says  that  the  plant  business 
never  before  reached  the  point  in  vol- 
ume or  prices  that  it  did  this  last  season. 
He  was  accompanied  by  his  brother, 
Charles  Butchart,  a  florist  in  La  Cygne, 
who  came  to  buy  stock.  He  is  prepar- 
ing to  add  to  his  store  in  La  Cygne. 

The  Pinehurst  Floral  Co.  is  cutting 
good  Russell,  Columbia,  Ophelia  and 
Kaiserin  roses.  Its  first  Premiers  came 
in  July  21  and  were  good,  although  the 
stems  were  short.  The  company  is  cut- 
ting about  3,000  roses  a  day,  and  about 
1,500  gladioli.  The  first  asters  came  in 
July  22. 

Mrs.  Jack  Murray,  of  the  W.  L.  Rock 
Flower  Co.,  has  returned  from  a  trip 
through  the  east  as  far  as  Montreal. 
Mrs.  Laura  Hoover  Schaulis,  formerly 
bookkeeper  for  this  firm,  has  resumed 
her  position,  as  Miss  Walsh,  who  has 
been  bookkeeper  for  some  time,  is  com- 
pelled to  go  to  Colorado  with  a  sister 
who  is  in  poor  health. 

Mr.  and  Mrs.  Frank  X.  Gorly,  of  St. 
Louis,  stopped  over  Friday,  July  23,  on 
their  way  to  California. 

W.  L.  Fitz  Hu^h,  who  was  with  the 
W.  L.  Rock  Flower  Co.  for  the  last  four 
years,  is  now  with  the  Kansas  City 
Wholesale  Cut  Flower  Co. 


Harry  Blake  and  William  Day,  of  the 
Pinehurst  Floral  Co.,  arrived  home  Sat- 
urday, July  24,  from  Fort  Worth,  Tex., 
where  they  attended  the  meeting  of  the 
Texas  State  Florists'  Association.  Mr. 
Blake  and  Mr.  Day  were  in  charge  of 
the  exhibit  of  the  Pinehurst  Floral  Co., 
said  by  everyone  to  be  one  of  the  main 
features  of  the  convention  and  by  the 
secretary  of  the  association  to  be 
worthy  of  any  national  convention.  The 
exhibit  included  among  other  things 
carnations,  ferns,  cyclamens  and  begon- 
ias. Several  thousand  dollars'  worth  of 
business  was  done  and  many  customers 
were  added  to  the  list. 

In  a  letter  to  some  of  the  boys  in  the 
store,  M.  E.  Carter,  manager  of  the  W. 
L.  Rock  Flower  Co.,  told  of  the  routine 
of  camp  life,  Mr.  Carter-  being  with  the 
Seventh  regiment  at  the  annual  en- 
campment at  Nevada,  Mo. 

Mrs.  F.  H.  Miller,  of  R.  S.  Brown  & 
Son,  is  enjoying  a  vacation  in  the 
Ozarks.  Brown  &  Son's  plant  and  bed- 
ding business  this  season  is  100  per  cent 
over  normal.  They  are  still  receiving 
occasional  orders  for  bedding  stock.  Cut 
flower  and  funeral  work  has  been  heavy 
all  the  week. 

Miss  Carrie  Etzold,  of  the  Fernery, 
left  for  St.  Louis  July  24. 

Mrs.  Edith  Roberts  is  happy  about  the 
way  business  is  keeping  up  at  the  Ros- 
ery  while  Mr.  and  Mrs.  Thomas  are  in 
California. 

The  dry,  hot  weather  has  helped  to 
drive  away  A.  F.  Barbe  's  rheumatism 
and  he  has  felt  better  the  last  few  days. 
His  son,  Bernard  Barbe,  is  managing 
the  greenhouses  during  his  father's  ill- 
ness. He  has  the  benches  ready  for 
carnations  and  will  take  the  plants  in 
from  the  field  the  latter  part  of  this 
month. 

August  Luther,  Jr.,  has  completed  a 
new  house,  20x60  feet,  for  cyclamens. 

Miss  McBee,  of  the  Muehlebach  Flow- 
er Shop,  is  spending  a  week  in  Excelsior 
Springs.  Hugo  Neff,  manager,  will  at- 
tend the  Cleveland  convention  and  will 
go  from  there  to  New  York  to  buy  fall 
goods. 

Mrs.  T.  A.  Moseley's  shop  had  a  heavy 
day  Saturday,  July  24,  with  orders  for 
the  funeral  of  one  of  the  pioneer  resi- 
dents of  Kansas  City,  Kan. 

William  Lang,  of  the  Park  Floral  Co., 
St.  Joseph,  Mo.,  and  G.  V.  Voight,  Tul- 
sa, Okla.,  were  in  the   city  last  week. 

Meyer  Liebernian,  of  the  Kresge 
Flower  Shop,  is  in  Los  Angeles,  Cal.  Mr. 
and  Mrs.  M.  Galamba  are  in  Colorado 
Springs. 

The  Kansas  City  Wholesale  Cut  Flow- 
er Co.  is  handling  a  large  quantity  of 


fancy   gladioli.     Orders   are   coming   in- 
well  for  summer. 

Although  the  cut  flower  business  is- 
but  a  side  issue  of  Rock's  Flower  Gar- 
dens, the  main  thing  being  the  propaga- 
tion of  plants  and  bulbs,  the  former  has- 
been  highly  successful  at  this  early 
stage.  They  have  cut  a  fine  crop  of 
Halley  gladioli.  They  are  now  cutting 
Pendleton  and  will  have  about  25,000. 
They  also  have  Panama,  America, 
Francis  King  and  two  or  three  fancy 
varieties,  about  125,000  in  all. 

Samuel  Murray  is  still  cutting  good 
crops  of  lilies,  auratum  and  rubrum. 

T.  J.  Noll  has  returned  from  the  con- 
vention of  the  Texas  State  Florists' 
Association  with  all  sorts  of  good  things 
to  say  about  the  ability  and  hospitality 
of  members   of  the   Texas  association. 

Henry  Kusik  &  Co.  are  slowly  catch- 
ing up  on  wire  orders  as  the  flower 
business  lightens,  but  it  has  not  yet 
reached  the  usual  hot  weather  stage  of 
dullness.  J.  E.  K.

The  Market. 


The  market  seems  not  so  active  as 
it  has  been,  but  the  probability  is  that 
the  actual  sales  are  running  even  better 
than  earlier  in  the  summer.  There  is  a 
great  deal  more  stock  than  there  wa» 
a  few  weeks  ago,  and  much  more  stock 
than  at  this  date  last  year.  It  will  be 
remembered  that  July  was  an  extremely 
good  month,  judged  by  the  summer 
standards,  in  1919.  In  that  year,  how- 
ever, only  a  small  number  of  growers 
were  cutting  any  considerable  quantity 
of  stock.  This  year  many  more  are 
sending  flowers  to  the  market  and 
numerous  wholesale  houses  have  large 
supplies.  That  they  are  able  to  move 
such  large  quantities  of  flowers  indi- 
cates that  the  aggregate  of  July  busi- 
ness must  be  much  greater  than  ever 
before. 

The  quality  of  summer  flowers  never 
was  so  good  as  now.  The  weather  has 
been  exceptionally  favorable.  While  an 
occasional  hot  day  has  served  to  crowd 
the  market  with  soft  flowers,  as  a  whole 
the  month  has  been  unusually  cool  and 
the  quality  of  stock,  taken  as  a  whole, 
is  better  than  in  any  previous  summer. 
This  is  particularly  true  of  roses.  The 
varieties  now  principally  grown  not  only 
are  fine  in  winter  but  are  good  in  sum- 
mer. Russell  is  generally  considered  the 
best  hot  weather  rose  in  the  history  of 
the  florists'  business,  but  Premier  is 
not  far  behind  and  Columbia  has  dem- 
onstrated its  worth  as  a  midsummer  pro- 
ducer.   These  are  the  principal  varieties

out  of  stock. 

Our  Lilies  are  grown  by  Sam  Pearce,  internationally  known  as  probably

antee that  no  better  Lilies  are  to  be  obtained.  ^.

are 


now    offered.      White    and    yellow 
scarce  and  red  is  in  little  demand. 

Next  to  the  roses,  gladioli  occupy  the 
leading  position.  Receipts  have  in- 
creased rapidly  in  the  last  week  and  the 
market  now  is  well  supplied.  Perhaps 
the  most  popular  variety  is  Myrtle,  use- 
ful for  a  large  variety  of  retail  purposes, 
but  it  would  be  difficult  to  find  anything 
finer  than  the  Halley  now  coming  in  con- 
siderable quantity  from  a  score  or  more 
of  shippers.  Pendleton  and  Pink  Beauty 
also  are  in  large  supply.  Gladioli  are 
selling  well,  but  the  price  has  fallen 
with  increased  supplies. 

With  the  practical  disappearance  of 
carnations,  asters  have  become  much 
more  abundant.  They  always  sell  well 
at  this  time  and  all  good  stock  is  mov- 
ing steadily.  It  seems  that  weather 
conditions  are  giving  the  aster  growers 
a  better  chance  for  profit  than  they  have 
had  for  several  years. 

Other  indoor  flowers  are  practically 
limited  to  lilies,  valley  and  a  few  cat- 
tleyas,  each  of  which  is  fully  equal  to 
any  present  demand.  There  are  large 
quantities  of  garden  flowers,  as  the 
weather  has  been  favorable.  These  are 
not  good  shipping  subjecta,  in  most  in- 


lonn.

customers  like  variety. 

Shipping  trade  is  holding  up  better 
than  in  any  previous  season.  The  prin-

a  fair  call  for  everything  else  in  the 
list.  As  a  whole  the  trade  at  this  center 
is  better  satisfied  with  summer  busi-

until  late  in  the  evening.  The  attend- 
ance, which  included  both  Mr.  Randall 
and  F.  M.  Johnson  and  their  families, 
totaled  several  hundreds.  The  sports 
committee,  headed  by  A.  L.  Rohn  and 
H,  B.  Dahlberg,  had  prepared  a  pro- 
gram of  fourteen  events  ranging  from 
races  for  the  girls  to  tug-of-war  and 
baseball  for  the  men.  All  were  hotly 
contested,  but  there  are  indications  that 
the  white  collar  staff  at  "One-eighty" 
proved  no  match  for  the  Factory  force. 
The  company  furnished  handsomu 
prizes. 

The  scene  was  White  Eagle  grove  in 
the  Forest  Preserve  in  the  town  of 
Lyons.  There  were  music,  dancing  and 
refreshments  for  all. 

The  arrangements  were  in  the  hands 
of  a  committee  of  the  workers  headed 
by:  Chas.  Roth,  honorary  chairman; 
H.  Goetz,  chairman;  H.  A.  Vanandaigue, 
vice  chairman;  H.  G.  Wilkerson,  secre- 
tary and  treasurer;  Aug.  J.  Kohansky, 
refreshments. 

Vaiious  Notes. 

The  wholesalers  are  paying  $.jO  a  ton 
for  overissued  newspapers  for  use  in 
packing.  In  the  old  days  of  plenty 
they  were  to  be  had  at  $8. 

Rudolph  Charles  Ellsworth  was  born 
July  23,  at  John  Robinson  hospital, 
Allegan,  Mich.  The  youngstcy  's  parents 
are  well  known  in  the  trade,  the  father,

CHICAGO 


«f  the  La  Bonte  Floral  &  Candy  Shop, 
at  Wilson  avenue  and  Broadway,  broke 
into  print  in  the  papers  last  week  by 
sending  a  letter  to  Mayor  Thompson's 
secretary,  suggesting  an  annual  flower 
festival  for  Chicago,  similar  to  the  one 
'n  Portland,  Ore. 

At  the  recent  meeting  of  the  stock- 
^iolders  of  the  Chicago  Flower  Growers' 
Association  it  developed  that  every  man 
'n  that  organization  will  run  every  foot 
ot  his  glass  to  full  capacity  next  winter; 
there  will  be  no  shut-down.    Moreover, 


several  of  the  members  already  have  all 
the  coal  they  can  store  and  are  in  as 
good  shape  as  it  is  possible  for  them  to 
be  as  regards  fuel.  Only  one  of  these 
growers  has  stored  no  coal  at  all.  That 
concern  made  a  contract  some  time  ago 
at  a  price  which  soon  was  below  the 
market  and  has  received  no  deliveries 
thus  far.  The  others  have  been  paying 
market  price  day  of  shipment. 

"William  Wienhoeber  and  Mrs.  Wien- 
hoeber  have  returned  from  a  most  en- 
joyable month 's  vacation,  most  of  which 


was  spent  fishing  at  Catalina  Island,  in 
the  Pacific. 

Ben  Miller,  vice-president  of  the  A. 
B.  C,  has  sailed  for  Holland  to  in- 
spect the  company's  purchases  in  the 
packing  sheds  and  to  expedite  the  for- 
warding. 

Eric  Johnson  could  have  no  interest 
in  an  assemblage  of  morticians,  so  it 
must  be  he  was  like  the  man  who  at- 
tended the  funeral  "just  for  the  ride" 
when  he  went  with  Charles  N.  Manhoff 
to  the  convention  of  the  Wisconsin  Un-

troducing the  J.  B.  davenport  casket. 
A-  M.  Anderson,  textiles  buyer  of  the 
A.  L,  Eandall  Co.,  returned  July  26  from 
a  visit  to  New  York. 

Nothing  in  recent  years  has  so  en- 
grossed the  attention  of  Peter  Beinberg 
as  has  the  Forest  Preserve.  He  is  chair- 
man of  the  board  of  commissioners  and 
has  given  freely  of  his  time  and  means 
for  the  development  of  our  outer  park 
system  which  some  day  will  make  Chi^ 
,  '«ago  famous  the  world  over.  July  26 
Mr.  Beinberg 's  commission  concluded 
one  of  the  largest  of  single  additions 
to  the  system.  It  consists  of  309  acres 
in  the  town  of  Thornton  and  cost 
$557,100. 

Frank  Felke  is  located  at  Elkhart, 
Ind.,  as  grower  for  the  West  View  Floral 
Co.,  the  largest  concern  there.  His 
greenhouses  at  Wilmette  are  being  op- 
erated by  a  tenant,  but  are  for  sale. 

Casimir  Gouza  has  bought  a  neat  new 
bungalow  on  the  north  side  and  has  de- 
voted a  week's  vacation  to  building  as 
neat  a  garage. 

According  to  the  reports  published  in 
the  daily  papers,  Schofield's  Flower 
Shop,  on  North  State  street,  has  a 
flower  bill  of  $500  against  the  city, 
which  the  city  cannot  pay  for  lack  of 
funds.  Mr.  Schofield  has  taken  an  I.  O. 
U.  for  the  amount. 

A.  Henderson  is  contemplating  a  trip 
to  New  York  to  meet  the  bulbs  now 
afloat. 

Last  spring  A.  Miller,  of  the  A.  B.  C, 
advised  several  growers  to  plant  Gladi- 
olus Arizona  instead  of  Pink  Beauty. 
Now  he  points  to  the  flowers  in  market 
as  confirming  his  judgment. 

Poehlmann  Bros.  Co.  has  a  wonderful 
new  supplies  catalogue  almost  ready  for 
the  press. 

The  Briggs  Floral  Co.,  at  its  north  side 
store,  has  a  new  front.  Situated  at  a 
busy  boulevard  crossing,  the  enlarged 
and  projecting  windows  will  give  op- 
portunity for  a  display  which  will  be  of 
rare  advertising  value. 

Bernard  Sherman,  of  W.  J.  Smyth's 
force,  has  been  on  a  vacation  trip  in 
Canada. 

Herbert  Stone,  manager  of  Peacock's 
Flower  Shop,  always  has  an  attractive 
window.  At  present  it  is  a  garden 
scene,  with  a  house  of  white  mice,  which 
Mr.  Stone  finds  almost  as  good  a  side 
line  as  canaries  and  goldfish.

Various  Notes. 

During  a  severe  electrical  storm  early 
Friday,  July  23,  lightning  struck  a  large 
bcilding  at  the  establishment  of  Lewis 
ft  Valentine,  the  landscape  gardeners, 
Boslyn,    Long   Island,   resulting   in    its 

complete  destruction.    Twenty-five  auto- 
trucks   and   much    valuable    machinery 
were  in  the  building  and  the  damage  is 
estimated  altogether  at  $20,000. 

Chrysanthemums  have  made  their  bow 
for  the   season.     J.   K.   Allen,   in    the 
Eighteenth   street   market,   has   in   the

son,  as  the  result  of  a  burglar's  attack

John  Poehlmann,  of  Poehlmann  Bros. 
Co.,  Chicago,  spent  Sunday  and  Monday 
in  town  on  his  way  home  from  a  two

PHnJU>ELPHIA. 


The  Market. 


Summer  flowers  are  coming  into  season 
now.  Gladioli  are  in  full  crop,  while 
asters  are  taking  the  place  so  long 
filled  by  carnations.  Easter  lilies  are 
bringing  a  little  better  prices.  Short 
roses  are  overabundant.  Business  is 
fair  for  midsummer.  It  was  moderately 
active  at  the  beginning  and  at  the  end 
of  the  week,  but  dull  in  mid-week. 

This  briefly  summarizes  conditions  in 
the  cut  flower  market  during  the  next 
to  last  week  in  July.  Judging  by  the 
number  of  boxes  going  out  of  the  whole- 
sale cut  flower  places  each  day,  boxes 
that  are  filled  with  flowers  that  are  or- 
dered, it  would  seem  as  though  many 
flowers  were  being  sold  daily.  So  there 
are,  but  there  are  many  flowers  arriv- 
ing. Prices  are  low  on  many  of  them 
and  expenses  are  heavy. 

The  greatest  opportunity  in  the  cut 
flower  market  today  lies  in  the  cutting 
and  packing  of  gladioli.  Next  after  the 
choice  of  varieties,  there  is  nothing  so 
important.  Spikes  that  are  cut  at  the 
proper  stage  of  development  and  then, 
after  being  put  in  water  for  a  short 
time,  are  properly  packed,  are  worth 
much  more  than  those  that  are  not,  and, 
alas,  most  of  the  gladioli  are  not. 

Asters  have  not  been  plentiful  yet. 
They  are  expected  to  increase  now,  dur- 
ing the  last  week  of  July. 

Baseball. 

Teams  representing  the  S.  8.  Pen- 
nock  Co.  and  the  Philadelphia  florists, 
selected  and  managed  by  J.  M.  Deutsch- 
er,  played  off  the  technically  drawn 
game  of  July  16  at  Belmont,  July  20. 
The  Pennock  team  was  the  same  as  in 
the  first  game,  but  Manager  Deutscher, 
profiting  by  his  close  call,  strengthened 
his  team  in  several  important  positions 
to  such  good  purpose  that  a  terrific  12- 
inning  battle  resulted.  The  Pennocks 
scored  a  run  in  the  fifth  inning.  The 
Philadelphia  florists  tied  the  score  in 
the  sixth  and  took  the  lead  in  the  sev- 
enth, making  the  score  2  to  1.  The 
Pennocks  tied  the  score  in  the  eighth. 
Each  side  made  one  in  the  ninth.  Des- 
pite every  effort,  the  score  remained  at 
3  to  3  hi  the  tenth  and  eleventh  innings. 
In  the  twelfth,  Topsticks  sent  Riley  to 
first.  Cousins  sent  him  home  with  a  two- 
bagger,   with    what   proved    to   be   the' 


The  three  Big  Cut  Flower  items  this  week  are 

Asters 
Lilies        Gladioli 

The  supply  of  Asters  is  much  larger  than  what  it  has  been. 
From  now  on  until  the  end  of  the  season,  we  will  have  plenty 
of  them. 

You  will  find  them  of  a  very  good  quality — $3.00  to  $6.00 
per  100. 

We  are  very  much  pleased  with  the  sale  of  Lilies.     You  must 

see  them  to  appreciate  the  high   quality  of  this   stock.  You 

will  find  them  much  better  than  the  average  Lilies  that 
are  offered. 

Gladioli  are  in  full  bloom  now.  We  can  furnish  you  almost  any 
variety  and  color. 

AMERICA,  SCHWABEN,  WHITE  GIANT,  HALLEY,  PER- 
FECTION and  a  great  many  of  the  newer  varieties  that  are 
not  so  well  known  by  name. 

The  price  is  reasonable,  $6.00  to  $8.00  per  100.  Some 
novelties  at  $10.00  per  100. 

Look  for  our  Classified  advertisement  of  CARNATION  PLANTS. 
Ready  for  immediate  delivery,  or  we  will  hold  them  until  later.

the  twelfth  inning  the  Pennocks'  chance 
of  scoring  was  spoiled  by  a  great  catch 
by  L,  Reid  in  left  field.  Topsticks 
was  hit  hard  throughout,  but  managed 
to  keep  the  hits  well  scattered.  The  ex-

will  be  in  active  demand  at  higher 
prices  and  that  this  demand  will  find 
us  with  an  even  smaller  supply  than  last 
winter  or  the  winter  before  last.  They 
base  this  belief  on  labor  and  coal.  They 
think  that  in  order  to  produce  we 
must  pay  the  price  and  they  think 
that  we  are  not  paying  the  price. 
They  believe  that  where  a  greenhouse 
business  is  prosperous  it  will  pay  in  the 


long  run  to  meet  the  market  price  on 
labor  and  on  coal.  Where  the  green- 
houses are  run  down  or  the  business  is 
not  prosperous  they  believe  it  would  be 
better  to  operate  them  for  spring  crops, 
somewhat  as  hotbeds  are  handled.

to  advise  E.  P.  Klinger,  chairman  of  the

the  convention.  No  plan  of  going  in  a

Various  Notes. 

Bernard  Eschner,  president  of  the  M. 
Eice  Co.,  and  Mrs.  Eschner  left  this  city 
bound  for  the  Great  Lakes  and  Minne- 
sota July  24.  Mr.  Eschner  plans  attend- 
ing the  Cleveland  convention,  his  first 
convention  in  eight  years. 

David  Fuerstenberg  visited  North 
Wales  July  23.  He  found  one  of  his  new 
greenhouses  completed.  The  other, 
while  progressing  well,  is  delayed  by  a 
carload  of  glass. 

Penelope,  light  pink,  and  Herada, 
"blue,"  are  the  star  gladioli  of  the 
Philadelphia  Cut  Flower  Co.  this  week. 

The  Cumberland  Valley  Greenhouses, 
of  Portsmouth,  Va.,  may  be  obliged  to 
close  because  of  inability  to  get  men  to 
operate  them. 

The  Joseph  Heacock  Co.  has  com- 
pleted the  filling  and  planting  of  its 
new  house,  70x600  feet,  at  Roelofs. 

Charles  J.  Theis  believes  that  intelli- 
gent efforts  to  develop  summer  business 
are  likely  to  prove  successful. 

A  disastrous  fire  threatened  the  Ran- 
stead  street  wholesale  commission  houses 
on  the  evening  of  July  22.  Two  fire- 
men were  killed  and  much  property  in  a 
Chestnut  street  store  was  destroyed. 
Manager  Deutscher,  of  the  Exchange, 
and  Fritz,  of  Reid  's,  saved  a  lot  of  val- 
uable rugs,  estimated  to  be  worth  thou- 
sands of  dollars,  at  great  risk  to  them- 
selves.

Club  Picnic. 

Magnificent  weather  was  enjoyed  by 
all  who  attended  the  eagerly  anticipated 
picnic  of  the  Gardeners'  and  Florists' 
Club  at  Cunningham  park,  East  Milton, 
July  22.  A  maximum  temperature  of 
75  degrees,  a  delightful  breeze  and  just 
sufficient  haze  to  somewhat  moderate  the 
sun's  power,  made  the  day  as  nearly 
perfect  as  possible,  and  the  500  or  more 
who  attended  had  a  day  of  pure  enjoy- 
ment, unmarred  by  any  accident  or  un- 
toward happening.  The  picnic  commit- 
tee provided  a  most  bountiful  supply  of 
tea,  coffee,  sandwiches,  ice  cream  and 
cold  fruit  juice,  so  that  any  who  did  not 
carry  lunch  baskets  were  well  cared  for. 

W.  J.  Kennedy,  as  usual,  made  an 
ideal  ringmaster  and  P.  M.  Miller  an 
efficient  starter.  The  corps  of  judges 
did  tiieir  work  so  well  that  no  com- 
plaints of  any  kind  were  heard.  The 
baseball  games  were  started  in  the  morn- 
ing and  gave  the  usual  thrills.  As  a 
rule,  the  commercial  team  outclasses  the 
private  gardeners,  but  on  this  occasion 
the  latter  got  together  a  snappy  team 
and  managed  to  come  out  ahead.  The 
ladies'  baseball  game  is  always  the 
piece  de  resistance  of  the  picnic,  and  the 
game  July  22  proved  as  thrilling  as  any

started  out  strong  and  led  11  to  6  at 
their  end  of  the  fifth  inning.  The  game 
was  limited  to  five  innings  and  victory 
seemed  assured,  but  the  single  ladies, 
with  a  mighty  effort,  first  tied  the  game 
and  finally  won,  12  to  11,  amidst  great 
excitement.

Association  will  attend  an  all-day  field

Lexington,  August  4.  Tests  of  175 
vegetables,  twenty  green  manure  crops, 
control  measures  for  various  pests  and 
other  tests  and  experiments  should  make 
this  a  most  interesting  and  practical 
outing.  Several  papers  will  be  read  in 
the  afternoon,  including  "The  Market 
Box  Problem,"  "Cooperative  Purchases 
of  Supplies  of  Vegetable  Growers," 
"Seed  Quality  and  Profits"  and  "The 
Motor  Cultivator. ' '

MILTON  SBLINKA, 


THE  RIBBON  HOUSE 

ScHLOSs  Bros.,  Ribbons,  inc. 

31  and  33  East  28th  street,  NEW    YORK 

HEADQUARTERS 

For  Florists'  Ribbons,  Chiffons  and  Novelties 


skillful  culture  and  this  new  plant  fac- 
tory seems  destined  to  become  one  of 
the  leaders  in  this  vicinity.  Arnold 
Janitan,  head  of  the  firm,  was  formerly 
with  the  firm  of  Janitan  &  WoUrath, 
Waltham,  and  is  one  of  our  brainiest 
plant  growers. 

G«orge  W.  Hamer,  the  popular  as- 
sistant manager  of  the  Boston  Flower 
Exchange,  left  July  24  for  his  annual 
vacation,  which  will  be  spent  visiting 
various  points  of  interest  in  Massachu- 
setts. 

Henry  Penn  and  wife  leave  August  1 
for  their  annual  vacation,  which  will  bo 
spent  at  Grand  Lake  Stream,  Me.,  where 
the  finny  tribe  are  plentiful  and  bite 
eagerly.  Mr.  and  Mrs.  Penn  will  make 
the  trip  by  automobile  and  will  make 
side  trips  to  Bar  Harbor  and  other 
points  of  interest.  Mr.  Penn  doubts  if 
ne  will  attend  the  Cleveland  convention. 
At  the  store  I  noted  in  one  window  a 
fine  display  of  hardy  herbaceous  flowers 
and  shrubs  with  Latin  and  English 
names  attached. 

The  eoal  situation  is  clarified  some- 
what and  the  promise  of  President  Wil- 
son to  see  that  New  England  seenres  a 
sufSeient  fuel  supply  is  more  encourag- 
ing to  growers,  but  they  are  not  yet 
optimistic. 

One  prominent  local  pot  plant  firm 
which  has  done  specially  well  with 
cyclamens  and  poinsettias  and  has  made 
a  good  reputation  wants  to  get  out  of 
the  business  and  offers  its  place  for  sale, 
although  it  claims  to  have  made  consid- 
erable money.  There  would  appear  to 
be  just  as  good  opportunities  for  making 
money  in  growing  plants  in  and  around 
Boston  today  as  in  garage  or  other  busi- 
nesses which  might  be  named. 

At  the  shoe  and  leather  style  show, 
held  in  the  Mechanics'  building  last 
week,  which  attracted  many  thousands 
of  visitors,  Thomas  F.  Galvin,  Jr.,  of 
Devonshire  street,  and  T.  F.  Galvin,  Inc., 
had  charge  of  the  floral  and  other  deco- 
rationsj  which  were  quite  extensive  and 
elaborate.  These  summer  expositions, 
coming  as  they  do  when  cut  flower  trade 
is  at  its  lowest  ebb,  would  seem  to  be 
an  inviting  field  for  retailers  to  develop. 

The  sincere  sympathy  of  the  trade  is 
extended  to  Paul  F.  Brigham,  the  well 
known  Westboro  florist,  in  the  death  of 
his  wife,  which  occurred  July  19  after 
a  five  months'  sickness  in  the  hospital, 
borne  with  exemplary  patience.  The 
deceased  lady  was  only  28  years  of  age

Trimble  Iskuid,  Wash.— The  Trimble 
Island  Floral  Co.  has  taken  over  the 
business  of  B.  L.  Warson. 


XOS  ANOELES,  CAL. 


The  Market. 

In  view  of  the  unusually  hot  weather, 
the  number  of  complaints  of  stock  ar- 
riving in  bad  shape  are  surprisingly  few, 
according  to  wholesalers.  Of  course,  the 
demand  has  dropped  materially,  but 
even  now  a  considerable  number  of 
boxes  are  sent  to  Texas,  Arkansas,  New 
Mexico  and  other  far-off  points  and  all 
of  these  have  to  cross  a  most  trying 
territory.  Anyone  traveling  about 
these  desert  sections  and  noting  the  de- 
lays and  the  way  flower  boxes  are  han- 
dled in  the  sun  and  drying  winds  will 
wonder  how  any  of  the  flowers  reach 
their  destination  in  a  fit  condition  to 
use,  and  more  and  more  wholesalers  are 
refusing  to  take  responsibility  for  these 
shipments,  though  striving  to  the  ut- 
most to  deliver  the  goods.  There  is  a 
peculiar  condition  that  does  not  make 
for  good  business  in  shipping  strawflow- 
ers  and  other  long-lasting  stock  to  the 
desert  sections,  where  fresh  flowers  wilt 
quickly.  The  flower  lovers  in  such 
places  do  not  take  to  them.  They  have 
so  much  that  is  dry  to  look  at  that  the 
fresh  stock  always  looks  best  and  conse- 
quently the  demand  for  the  "everlast- 
ings," the  only  flowers  that  will  keep, 
is  not  so  good  as  in  other  locations. 

Stock  is  not  piling  up  much,  though  a 
few  carnations  and  roses  find  their  way 
to  the  trash  barrel.  Indoor  carnations 
are  practically  off  the  market  and  the 
condition  of  other  stock  is  about  as  last 
reported.  Inqtiiries  continue  to  come 
from  eastern  points  for  plumosus  and 
other  greens,  but  at  this  time  of  year  the 
stock  is  so  poor  and  the  risk  so  great 
that  few  of  the  experienced  wholesalers 
care  to  handle  the  business. 

Funeral  work  continues  to  be  the 
mainstay  of  the  retailers,  but  there  has 
been  much  of  this  and  it  has  kept  them 
from  the  summer  slackness. 

Various  Notes. 

Albert  Knight,  of  Whittier,  has  ob- 
tained his  passage  and  intends  to  sail 
for  England  shortly,  Mrs.  Knight  hav- 
ing sailed  last  month.  During  his  ab- 
sence the  business  will  be  looked  after 
by  his  brother. 

Peter  Brown  has  secured  another  lo- 
cation, at  344  South  Hill,  only  a  block 
from  his  former  store. 

Hot  weather  has  led  to  a  brisk  de- 
mand for  garden  hose  at  the  store  of  the 
L.  A.  Floral  Co.  As  at  other  wholesale 
places,  shipping  trade  has  fallen  off 
greatly  here  during  the  last  few  weeks. 

C.  D.  Baker,  of  Yuma,  Ariz.,  has 
closed  his  place  for  the  summer  season 
and  come  to  the  coast  for  a  few  months, 
as  is  his  usual  custom.  Mr.  Baker  for- 
merly lived  in  Los  Angeles  and  says 
that  he  is  always  glad  to  get  back  here, 
though  this  season  he  has  struck  it  hot, 
even  here. 

Bose  planting  is  practically  finished 
at  the  place  of  Roy  F.  Wilcox  &  Co., 
Montebello,  and  the  young  stock  looks 
remarkably  well.     Most  of  the  benches 


have  been  newly  arranged  with  drain 
tile  to  take  off  any  superfluous  water, 
the  experiment  on  some  of  the  benches 
last  year  having  proved  successful.  The 
young  palm  stock,  both  under  glass  and 
in  lath  houses,  is  looking  well  and  an 
immense  stock  is  being  worked  up  in  all 
sizes.  The  new,  large  lath  house  is  al- 
ready nearly  filled  with  young  plants 
and  the  rose  area  has  been  enlarged. 

As  briefly  reported  last  week  in  The 
Beview,  Budolph  Fischer,  of  San  Ga- 
briel, suffered  a  severe  loss  by  fire  at  his 
nursery.  From  further  particulars  it 
appears  that  some  rubbish  was  being 
burned  near  the  building  in  which  his 
freesia  bulbs  were  stored  between  dig- 
ging time  and  shipping  time  and  sparks 
from  the  fire  flew  to  the  building,  burn- 
ing it  to  the  ground  and  destroying  the 
contents.  Owing  to  the  heat,  several  of 
the  greenhouses  collapsed,  and  it  was 
only  by  the  prompt  assistance  of  neigh- 
bors that  the  dwelling  house  was  saved. 
Mr.  Fischer  placed  his  loss  at  between 
$10,000  and  $15,000,  and  there  was  only 


$900  insurance  on  the  building.  Mr. 
Fischer  was  rather  badly  burned  on  the 
hand.  After  the  many  years  of  hard 
work  put  in  by  Mr.  and  Mrs.  Fischer  and 
their  family,  it  seems  particularly  hard 
to  have  the  results  swept  away  like  this. 
A  new  lath  house  had  been  built  to  take 
care  of  the  new  plantings,  but  the  stock 
'will  be  so  much  reduced  by  the  fire  that 
it  will  not  now  be  needed. 

A.  F.  Borden,  of  the  Bedondo  Floral 
Co.,  has  bought  himself  a  fine  new  home 
on  Normandie  avenue,  having  sold  his 
place  at  Hollywood.  A  big  demand  for 
funeral  work  is  reported  by  A.  Knopf, 
and  the  staff  is  short-handed  because  of 
vacations. 

The  Alexandria  Florist  reports  good 
business  all  around  for  this  time  of  the 
year.  George  Eischen  takes  advantage 
of  Sundays  to  visit  his  ranch  at  Monte- 
bello. 

Several  palls  were  among  the  funeral 
orders  for  Purdie  &  Co,  recently. 

Mrs.  Ella  Grant  Wilson,  of  Cleveland, 
was  given  a  reception  by  the  Los  An-

geles  Florists'  Club,  which  attracted  130 
members  of  the  trade.  President  Arma- 
cost  and  Mrs.  Wilson  spoke  interestingly 
on  publicity.  A  basket  of  flowers  tele- 
graphed by  the  Cleveland  Florists '  Club 
was  presented  to  her.  The  gathering 
was  a  most  enthusiastic  one. 

F.  L.  Ziegler,  of  Bellflower,  is  adding 
to  his  glass  by  erecting  a  new  green- 
house, 35x150  feet.  He  has  been  making 
a  specialty  of  ferns  and  is  now  branch- 
ing out  in  cyclamens  and  begonias,  for 
all  of  which  stock  he  finds  a  ready  de- 
mand in  Long  Beach  and  other  smaller 
towns  in  the  vicinity. 

John  Turnbull,  formerly  superintend- 
ent for  Mrs.  C.  B.  Raymond,  at  Monte- 
cito,  has  started  in  business  for  himself 
at  Santa  Barbara.  Mr.  Turnbull  has  had 
a  good  deal  of  experience  and  is  spe- 
cializing on  hardy  plants  and  perennials. 

E.  G.  Fraser  &  Son,  Pasadena,  are 
more  than  pleased  with  the  reception 
given  their  novelties  in  "Suntested" 
seeds.  At  their  test  beds  a  wonderful 
showing  is  being  made  of  their  dahlia- 
flowered  zinnia  now,  the  individual 
blooms  being  of  immense  size  and  the 
range  of  colors  extra  large.  D.  G. 
Fraser,  who  is  the  life  and  soul  of  the 
business,  is  determined  and  anxious 
that  whoever  sends  them  a  trial  order 
is  going  to  become  a  steady  customer. 

R.  D.  Paul  is  again  operating  the  Han- 
ford  Floral  Co.,  at  Hanford.  It  will  be 
recalled  that  Mr.  Paul  sold  out  there  a 
year  or  two  ago.  H.  R.  Richards.

The  Market. 

Asters  are  gradually  becoming  a 
dominating  influence  in  the  market  here, 
as  well  as  constituting  one  of  the  prin- 
cipal shipping  items.  They  show  excel- 
lent quality  and  are  in  good  demand  all 
around.  Chrysanthemums  are  improv- 
ing both  in  quantity  and  quality,  but 
the  offerings  are  still  limited,  and  it 
will  be  two  or  three  weeks  before  their 
season  is  well  advanced.  Weather  con- 
ditions have  been  favorable  for  the 
growth  of  a  fine  stand  of  mums.  It  is 
expected  that  shipping  business  will 
surpass  previous  years,  provided  the 
crop  matures  as  well  as  the  present  out- 
look indicates.  The  demand  for  Cali- 
fornia chrysanthemums  has  been  in- 
creasing for  several  years,  and  last  year 
was  an  excellent  season  for  the  growers 
of  this  vicinity.  This  year  an  increased 
acreage  has  been  planted  in  anticipation 
of  an  even  heavier  shipping  movement.

well  for  the  middle  of  the  summer,  and 
the  same  may  be  said  of  carnations. 
More  first-class  Russell  and  Columbia 
roses  could  be  used,  however,  were  they 
available.  Orchids  continue  below  re- 
quirements, which  means  they  are  quite 
scarce,  as  the  demand  is  not  especially 
brisk  at  this  time  of  the  year.  The 
shortage  is  causing  an  increased  call 
for  gardenias,  which  are  fortunately  in 
good  supply. 

Gladioli  maintain  their  position  with 
remarkable  persistency,  the  daily  offer- 
ings holding  up  well  both  in  respect  to 
quantity  and  quality.  Sweet  peas  are 
shortening  up  and  will  not  last  much 
longer.  Cut  cyclamens  are  plentiful  and 
good,  and  the  market  is  well  supplied 
with  outdoor  summer  stock,  such  as 
gaillardias,  zinnias,  coreopsis,  daisies, 
marigolds,  etc.

been  especiallj  busy  for  July,  business 
for  the  midsummer  month  being  heavier 
than  in  June,  which  is  largely  due  to  a 
steadily  increasing  call  from  out-of-town 
points  for  floral  pieces  and  other  work. 

The  local  trade  received  a  visit  from 
Mr.  and  Mrs.  J.  C.  Steinhauser,  of  Pitts- 
burg, Kan. 

l^e  Japanese  Growers'  Association 
held  a  picnic  at  St.  Ignatius  ball  park, 
to  which  were  invited  all  the  white 
growers  and  florists  hereabouts.  About 
5,000  i)eople  participated  in  the  outing. 
An  elaborate  program  was  carried  out, 
the  announcements  being  printed  in 
both  Japanese  and  English.  The  exer- 
cises opened  with  the  playing  of  the 
"Star-Spangled  Banner,"  by  an  Ameri- 
can band.  On  a  pole  was  arranged  a 
large  California  poppy,  which,  when  the 
band  ceased  playing,  opened  up  and 
from  it  rose  a  big  American  flag,  follow- 
ed by  butterflies  which  flew  out  into  the 
crowd.  These  in  turn  were  followed  by 
a  flock  of  white  doves,  giving  a  most 
pleasing  effect.  In  the  form  of  amuse- 
ment, races  of  all  sorts  were  arranged 
for  men,  women  and  children.  The 
ladies'  marketing  race,  in  which  the 
women  had  to  gather  up  a  loaf  of  bread, 
vegetables  and  other  items,  go  through 
the  process  of  paying  for  them,  etc., 
and  get  back  to  a  certain  point,  caused 
much  mirth.  As  each  person  entered  the 
park,  he  or  she  was  given  a  lunch  ticket, 
with  which  he  or  she  could  get  a  basket 
of  limch,  including  sandwiches,  cake, 
pickles  and  other  specialties.  The  affair 
was  a  great  success  in  every  way.

The  Market. 

There  was  no  increase  in  the  de- 
mand for  cut  flowers  during  the  last 
week,  but  the  slow  deliveries  and  the 
heavy  funeral  business  served  to  keep 
the  stores  entirely  cleared.  Retailers 
were  frank  in  admitting  that  funeral 
work  saved  the  day,  as  the  supply  on 
hand  was  larger  than  the  summer  de- 
mand would  have  handled.  "Weather 
conditions  were  more  favorable  to  out- 
door growers.  The  quality  of  the  rose 
cut  and  of  the  carnation  cut  has  been 
noticeably  affected;  in  fact,  sweet  peas 
are  about  the  only  offering  making  the 
best  possible  showing  as  to  quality. 
Some  of  the  finest  stock  shown  this 
season    's    being    delivered    now.     Iris

seems  to  have  disappeared  with  the  re- 
cent heat  wave  and  the  deliveries  of 
carnations  are  at  the  low  ebb  of  the 
year.  Most  of  the  growers  have  thrown 
out  all  of  their  old  plants  and  the  new 
crop  is  not  a  commercial  factor  yet. 

The  calendula  is  at  its  best  now.  It 
is  one  of  the  flowers  recognized  as  a 
birth  flower  for  the  month  of  July,  which 
has  served  to  increase  sales. 

The  new  offering  of  the  week  was  out- 
door dahlias,  but  the  first  arrivals  went 
slowly.  They  are  stringy  yet  and  fail 
to  show  the  necessary  keeping  quali- 
ties. Growers  state  it  wUl  be  at  least 
September  before  they  will  be  in  a  posi- 
tion to  offer  commercially  good  stock. 

Gladioli,  snapdragons  and  gypsophila 
have  been  quick  sellers.  Some  pansies 
of  bufficiently  long  stems  to  use  in  small 
baskets  and  corsages  are  being  received. 
Water  lilies  are  apparently  as  popular 
as  ever  and  the  growers  of  these  flowers 
are  reaping  a  nice  profit  from  their 
lakes  this  year. 

In  potted  offerings,  geraniums  and  a 
few  cinerarias  share  the  honors  with 
ferns,  the  latter  being  made  the  chief 
item  in  such  showings.  The  sale  of 
ferns  shows  most  buyers  prefer  the 
smaller  sizes  at  this  time. 

Of  the  late  deliveries  on  roses

and  through  the  use  of  fountains,  sum- 
mer flowers  and  light-colored  perennials 
some  unusual  effects  for  a  summer  eve- 
ning's lawn  party  were  secured.  Sev- 
eral hundred  corsages  and  baskets  were 
included  in  the  order. 

Miss  Anna  F.  Burns,  of  the  Burns 
Floral  Co.,  reports  a  nice  business  in 
summer  flowers.  The  windows  of  this 
shop  have  lately  been  redecorated  in 
white  enamel  and  present  an  attrac- 
tive appearance. 

Kenney's  Home  of  Flowers  used  tall 
cat-tails  and  swamp  grass  in  a  large 
basket  as  the  centerpiece  of  a  window 
display  last  week.  Water  lilies  were 
used  at  the  base  of  this  display. 

The  Orpheum  Floral  Co.  showed  sev- 
eral attractive  baskets  of  water  lilies, 
Regal  lilies  and  White  Killarney  roses 
last  week. 

John  M.  Finley,  formerly  county 
agent  for  Idaho  county,  Idaho,  has  been 
looking  over  western  Washington  points 
with  the  idea  of  locating.  He  is  an 
experienced  greenhouse  man  and  is  go- 
ing to  start  in  business  somewhere  in 
the  state  of  Washington. 

H.  P.  Anderson,  of  the  University 
Floral  Co.,  has  closed  his  store  until 
the  end  of  August  and  has  gone  on  his 
annual  vacation.  Since  the  greater 
share  of  this  firm's  business  comes  from 
the  college  activities,  Mr.  Anderson 
says  that  there  is  no  real  loss  of  busi- 
ness in  handling  the  vacations  this  way. 

George  Warner  will  shortly  celebrate 
his  first  anniversary  as  head  gardener 
for  the  University  of  Washington.  He 
now  employs  a  force  of  fifteen  men  the 
year  around  and  his  showing  of  roses 
has  been  especially  commented  on  among 
growers.  The  campus  gardens  show  more 
than  twenty  well  known  varieties. 

Thomas  Luke,  of  Max  Smith's,  Port- 
land, Ore.,  called  on  the  trade  on  his 
way  home  from  Victoria.  He  acted  as 
an  official  at  the  international  yachting 
regatta  there  last  week.  H,  M.

The  Market. 

Florists  are  not  doing  much  business. 
A  large  number  of  them  are  now  taking 
their  vacations;  therefore,  those  who  re- 
main are  kept  busy  with  funeral  work 
and  any  other  business  coming  up. 

Many  people  are  away  now  at  the 
beaches  and  mountains  and  other  places 
of  interest  or  pleasure;  so  naturally 
there  are  not  so  many  social  events  in 
the  city,  necessitating  a  dull  season  for 
the  florists. 

Gladioli  are  the  strong  item  in  the 
market  at  present.  The  wholesale  price 
is  low  compared  with  the  price  growers 
have  had  to  pay  for  bulbs.  Carnations 
are  in  fair  quantity  and  reasonably 
good  quality.  Roses  are  scarce  and  of 
poor  quality.  Sweet  peas  are  plentiful 
and  some  of  the  growers  have  some  ex- 
ceptionally good  ones. 

Annual  Picnic. 

The  florists'  annual  picnic,  held  at 
Dodge  park,  July  21,  was  a  decided  suc- 
cess in  every  way  and  those  who  were 
not  there  missed  a  big  time.  Two  spe- 
cial cars  were  nearly  filled  and  many 
more  went  in  private  conveyances.  It 
was  estimated  that  there  were  200  pres- 
ent. The  ladies  took  well  filled  baskets 
and  the  society  furnished  tea,  coffee, 
milk  and  ice  cream,  so  that  everyone 
had  more  than  enough  to  eat.  A  little 
shower  after  dinner  cleared  rm  tka  at-

Sweet  peas  are  inclined  to  be  of  poor 
quality  this  year.  The  stems  are  short. 
The  hot  weather  no  doubt  is  the  cause. 

Various  Notes. 

F.  Winters,  of  Seattle,  Wash.,  for- 
merly of  Spokane,  was  a  recent  visitor, 
coming  here  to  attend  the  funeral  of  his 
mother-in-law. 

A.  Beim,  of  Eugene's  Flower  Shop, 
was  passing  around  the  cigars  with  a 
smile  last  week,  the  occasion  being  the 
first  arrival  in  the  family,  a  daughter. 

W.  Berry,  of  Donart  's  House  of  Flow- 
en,  also  has  the  first  arrival  in  his 
family,  a  daughter.

RETAIL  STORE  MANAGEMENT 


WHAT  THE  LEADERS  IN  THE  TRADE  ARE  DOING 


.^.^^ 


W.  U.  CO-OPERATES  WITH  F.  T.  D. 


Special  Form  for  Flowergrams. 

Perhaps  the  most  important  indica- 
tion of  the  great  growth  in  florists '  tele- 
graph delivery  is  the  action  of  the 
largest  telegraph  system  in  the  world  in 
preparing  a  special  blank  for  florists' 
use  in  sending  such  orders.  It  has  been 
said  many  times  by  trade  leaders  that 
florists  as  a  whole  do  not  recognize  the 
importance  of  the  industry,  that  they 
do  not  realize  to  what  important  rank 
the  trade  has  advanced  in  late  years. 
When  Albert  Pochelon,  secretary  of  the 
F.  T.  D.,  first  estimated  annual  telegraph 
business  in  millions  of  dollars,  he  was 
looked  upon  as  overenthusiastic  in  hia 
calculations,  his  hopes  perhaps  affecting 
his  arithmetic.  But  since  that  time 
those  who  have  made  rough  estimates 
of  the  annual  total  of  florists'  wire  or- 
ders believe  the  secretary  was  conserva- 
tive in  those  figures.  Certainly  the  last 
season's  business  of  this  sort  has  been 
such  as  to  remove  all  doubt  as  to  the 
great  accomplishment  effected  in  this 
field  and  the  still  greater  opportunities 
ahead.  Of  this  fact  the  Western  Union 
Telegraph  Co.  has  shown  its  realiza- 
tion by  cooperating  with  florists  in 
staging  window  displays,  running 
branch  wires  and  otherwise  promot- 
ing business. 

Special  Blank. 

Now,  following  the  suggestion  of  a 
florist,  the  company  has  gone  so  far 
as  to  prepare  a  blank  specially  de- 
signed for  the  easy  and  accurate 
transmission  of  telegraph  orders 
for  flowers.  The  idea  was  given  to 
the  telegraph  company  by  Max 
Schling,  district  representative 
of  the  F.  T.  D.,  in  New  York  city. 
A  copy  of  this  form,  headed, 
*'8ay  It  with  Flowers — by 
Wire,"  is  reproduced  on  this 
page.  It  is  filled  out  to  show 
the  style  to  be  followed.  Op- 
posite each  line  is  a  word  or 
phrase  to  guide  the  florist  and  at  the 
bottom  is  space  for  special  instructions 
or  remarks  by  the  sender.  If  more  than 
one  order  is  sent  by  a  florist,  he  uses 
one  blank  for  each  order,  cutting  off 
the  heading  and  pasting  tlie  additional 
blanks  one  on  another  over  the  signa- 
ture line,  signing  only  the  last  one. 

Ready  for  Florists. 

The  letter  reproduced  with  the  form 
states  that  these  forms  are  now  ready 
for  florists'  use.  The  Western  Union 
Telegraph  Co.  has  been  supplied  with  a 
late  list  of  members  of  the  Florists' 
Telegraph  Delivery  Association.  Those 
who  have  joined  since  June  15  and  flo- 
rists not  members  of  the  organization 
should  make  application  to  their  local 
office  for  the  blanks,  which  will  be  fur- 
nished on  request.  By  employing  this 
special  form,  florists  will,  it  is  expected, 
avoid  a  great  many  of  the  slight  errors 


in  transmission  which  caused  great  an- 
noyance in  the  busy  time  of  the  year. 
It  is  hoped  that  a  similar  form  may  be 
obtained,  for  the  use  of  Canadian  flo- 


rists, from  the  Great  Northwestern 
Telegraph  Co.,  since  the  Western  Union 
operates  only  in  Nova  Scotia  and  New 
Brunswick.  Till  that  is  done,  however, 
florists  in  the  Dominion  should  follow 
the  form  reproduced  on  this  page  in  pre- 
paring their  messages  for  transmission.

That  the  telegraph  business  of  florists 
is  important  enough  to  warrant  the  com- 
pany's preparation  of  a  special  blank 
for  their  use  may  be  considered  a  com- 
pliment to  the  trade's  growing  impor- 
tance, aside  from  the  fact  that  it  will 
greatly  facilitate  handling  this  branch 
of  the  trade 's  work. 


AFTER  SIXTY-ONE  YEAES. 

The  following  notice  is  the  means  of 
announcing  to  the  patrons  of  A.  Wie- 
gand's  Sons  Co.  in  Indianapolis  that 
firm's  adoption  of  Sunday  closing: 

For  sixty-one  years  Wlegands  have  served 
the   public   seven   days   a  week. 

On  and  aftpr  July  4  our  Htore  will  be  closed 
on  Sunday.  We  feel  that  our  employees  are 
entlthd  to  enjoy  their  Sundaya  as  well  as  any- 
one else  and  Ijelieve,  with  your  coSperatlon, 
that  they  may  have  this  day. 

Flowers  for  use  on  Sunday  will  be  delivered 
Saturday  afternoon  and  with  Wlegands'  usual 
frpsli  flowers  there  will  be  no  inconvenience 
to   anyone. 


CAN  YOU  ANSWER  YES? 

Some  time  ago  in  Forbes'  Magazine  I 
read  a  line  which  ran  as  follows:  "Do 
people  really  like  to  associate  with 
youf" 

Just  think  it  over.  What  a  vast 
knowledge  one  can  get,  if,  on  taking 
inventory  of  one's  self,  one  can  an- 
swer: "Yes."  What  better  way  of 
determining  the  problem  of  the  oft- 
time  question,  "Am  I  a  success t"  How- 
ever, the  answer  to  the  above  question, 
which  is  to  the  point,  is  the  best  line 
seen  in  a  long  time  and  many  of  our 
fellow  workers  in  the  craft  have  un- 
doubtedly realized  by  now  their  popu- 


About  That  Piece 
of  Wood 


Cut  a  limb  of.'a  tree  across,  and  look  at  the  end,  and  you 
will  see  it  '.is  made  of  a  series  of  rings,  one  outside  the 
other. 

Next  to  the  bark  is  a  sort  of  skin-like  formation,  called 

the  cambium. 

This  is  the  real  live  part  of  the  tree.    Through  it  the  sap 

circulates. 

The  cambium  layer  of  this  year  is  the  hard  ring  of  the 

next. 

That's  how  a  tree  grows. 

It's  how  a  business  grows,  if  it's  a  real  growins:  business. 

Growing  that  way,  each  ring  binds  to.  and  around,  the  other 
rings,  making  every  ring  just  that  much  stronger. 

That  is  why  F.  T.  D.  business  is  such  satisfactory  business. 
If  it's  not,  how  .do  jou  suppose  Phjl|p^Breitmeyer^^  of 
De'troitTgot'over  ten'thousand^doUars  of^it  from  outside 
florists,  and  sends  to  thoseTsame  florists  over  eighteen 
thousand? 

When  you  pass  up  the  F.  T.  D.  you  overlook  a  mighty 
strong  ring  to  your  business. 

A  ring  that  each  year  keeps'getting  larger,  and  making  last 
year's  stronger.

larity  by  the  manner  in  which  they  are 
received  by  those  with  whom  they  come 
in  contact,  particularly  florists.  For 
therein  lies  the  acid  test  of  what  spells 
progress. 

Pick  a  progressive  store  and  find  out 
the  cause.  First,  the  golden  rule  method 
and  the  desire  to  cooperate  with  every 
movement  that  will  benefit  the  greatest 
number.     And  one  of  these  movements 


is  the  present  national  publicity  cam- 
paign, which  is  being  recognized  by  all 
as  the  most  worth-while  policy  ever  un- 
dertaken by  our  society. 

Of  course,  the  object  of  this  is  to  il- 
lustrate the  types  of  men  who  are  con- 
stantly doing  something  locally  as  well 
as  nationally  for  a  purpose  broad  in  its 
character  and  who  never  shirk  their 
part.      Many    florists    are    generous    of

NATIONAL  PUBLICITY  CAMPAIGN. 


Apathy  Not  Intentional. 

The  correctness  of  the  theory  of  our 
publicity  committee  that  a  good  deal  of 
the  apathy  on  the  part  of  many  florists 
toward  our  publicity  campagn  is  not  at 
all  intentional  is  demonstrated  frequent- 
ly by  letters  arriving  at  the  secretary's 
office. 

We  arc  sure  that  the  writers  of  some 
of  these  letters  will  not  mind  our  mak-

our  contribution  a  long  time  ago,  but 
were  too  busy  making  the  harvest,  and 
when  we  would  think  of  it,  we  were  not 
near  the  check  book  and  then  when 
writing  checks  we  would  not  think  of 
it.  Beading  over  a  trade  paper  in  our 
leisure  time,  the  writer  noticed  your  ap- 
peal for  more  funds  in  order  to  carry 
out  your  plans  to  their  fullest  scope,  and 
with  guilt  on  our  conscience — that  we 
have  reaped  the  benefits  of  someone 
else's  time  and  money — and  so  as  not  to 
go  down  as  one  of  the  florist  slackers, 
we     gladly     contribute     our     amount.

Doubtless  many  other  florists  are  just 
like  us  and  they  will  still  have  to  be 
hammered  away  at.  The  campaign  is  a 
good  thing  and  we  expect  to  do  our  part 
hereafter." 

There  Are  Others. 

We  consider  that  a  heartily  good  let- 
ter and  are  glad  to  publish  it  because 
we  know  that  many  other  florists  could 
conscientiously  write  along  the  same 
lines  and,  after  reading  this,  may  do  so. 
We  do  not  believe  and  never  have  be- 
lieved that  florists  are  purposely  with- 
holding support  from  this  glorious  move- 
ment for  the  best  interests  of  the  trade. 

Here  is  another  letter,  from  F.  Fallon,

feel  as  though  I  am  merely  paying  fare 
on  a  good  train  and  nut  making  any  sort

Mr.  Fallon  hits  the  nail  squarely  on

tribution, as  that  word  is  generally  used 
and  understood,  nor  is  anj-one  else  who 
has  subsciibed  to  the  campaign  fund. 
"Paying  fare"  is  a  better  stating  of  it. 
We  like  it  that  way.

perienced  this.  It  is  not  so  with  our 
publicity  campaign.  Every  florist  who 
subscribes  to  the  campaign  fund  should 
feel  that  he  is  making  an  investment, 
and  a  good  one,  too.  He  has  both  right 
and  reason  to  expect  a  profitable  return 
from  this  investment.  Many  florists  are 
enjoying  such  benefit  prior  to  making 
the  investment  and  these  we  would  refer 
again  to  the  letter  of  the  Krebs  firm, 
with  the  devout  hope  that  they  will  take 
it  to  heart  and  follow  the  good  exam- 
ple set.

Wliilo  counter  trade  does  not  amount 
to  .Tuything,  yet  every  retailer  in  Balti- 
more is  doing  a  splendid,  steady  busi- 
ness. All  first  quality  stock  is  cleaned 
up  each  day.  The  principal  demand 
is  for  funeral  work  and  hospital  orders 
and  the  best  that  is  to  be  had  is  always 
used.  Some  of  the  growers  seem  to 
have  been  expecting  just  this  situation 
and  prepared  for  it,  for  I  hav3  never 
seen  better  roses  this  late  in  the  season 
and,  at  the  prevailing  prices,  they  cer- 
tainly pay.  Carnations  are  still  to  be 
had  and  some  of  these  are  surprisingly 
good.  Gladioli  are  getting  better  each 
week;  some  of  the  leading  varieties  are 
exceedingly  good.     Asters  are  fine  and

At  Mary  Johnston's  store  the  con-

Bobert  Johnston  said  in  this  regard: 
"The  reputation  of  our  business  has 
been  buUt  upon  service.  When  a  cus- 
tomer comes  into  our  establishment  and 
orders  flowers  to  be  delivered  in  Phila- 
delphia, New  York  or  Boston,  our  first 
thought  is  to  see  that  the  customer  re- 
ceives the  same  service  he  would  get 
if  we  filled  the  order  ourselves." 

"How  do  you  know  he  will  get  such 
service  t"  I  asked.

this  is  easy,"  he  replied.  "You  know 
that  twenty  or  thirty  years  ago,  before 
the  r.  T.  D.  was  in  existence,  the  florists 
of  this  ttountry  had  regular  correspond- 
ents in  every  large  city,  people  we  could 
depend  upon  to  execute  any  order  we 
sent,  just  as  it  was  sent.  To  a  certain 
extent,  we  follow  that  rule  still." 

"But  suppose  you  have  not  got  su«h 
a  person  in  some  city,  do  you  just  take 
chanceaf " 

"Oh,  no.  For  instance,  if  you  were 
going  to  send  your  first  order  to  Boston 
or  Chicago,  of  whom  would  you  natur- 
ally think  t  We  figure  that  the  prom- 
inent men  would  not  have  gained  the 
prominence  in  the  floral  world  they 
have,  were  they  not  reliable.  Nor  would 
they  pay  to  advertise,  if  they  did  not 
give  service  that  would  hold  the  busi- 
ness gained  by  their  advertising.  We 
use  a  good  deal  of  thought  in  placing 
our  orders  and  seldom  have  a  complaint. 
One  of  our  greatest  pleasures  is  to  have 
a  customer  come  in  and  tell  ua  some- 
thing nice  about  an  order  delivered  for 
him  in  a  distant  city,  and  it  only  takes 
a  stamp  and  a  few  minutes  at  the  type- 
writer to  pass  this  commendation  along 
to  the  one  who  filled  the  order,  thank- 
ing him.     These  are  days  of  high  ten-

Growers'  Association. 

A  short  time  ago  a  few  kindred 
spirits  got  together  and  sent  out  a  call 
to  all  growers  who  supply  stock  for  the 
Baltimore  market  to  meet  at  the  estab- 
lishment of  James  Hamilton  July  21, 
at  4  p.  m.  Promptly  at  4  o'clock 
about  thirty  growers  were  present.  The 
object  of  the  meeting  was  explained,  it 
being  the  idea  of  the  leaders  in  the 
trade  that  the  time  had  now  come  when 
it  behooved  them  to  organize  for  closer 
cooperation  and  for  their  own  protec- 
tion. James  Hamilton  was  made  tem- 
porary chairman  and  was  immediately 
elected  permanent  president.  William 
G.  Lehr  was  elected  vice-president; 
Joseph  S.  Merritt,  secretary,  and  Arthur 
Richmond,  treasurer.  A  committee  met 
at  the  store  of  Samuel  Feast  &  Sons 
July  25  to  draft  a  constitution  and  by- 
laws. Aside  from  electing  officers  at 
the  initial  meeting  there  was  no  business 
transacted,  except  making  provision  for 
the  next  meeting,  which  will  be  held 
with  a  banquet  at  the  Hotel  Rennert, 
Wednesday,  August  4,  when  the  com- 
mittee on  the  constitution  will  report 
and  the  new  organization  will  be  finally 
launched. 

There  is  no  doubt  that  this  organiza- 
tion will  become  a  local  of  the  National

The  Market. 

The  wholesale  cut  flower  market,  as 
usual  at  this  time  of  the  year,  is  any- 
thing but  in  good  condition.  During  the 
week  ending  July  24  the  demand  was 
rather  light,  with  stock  of  first  quality 
scarce  in  almost  everything  except  gla- 
dioli. These  were  plentiful  at  all  of  the 
markets  and  the  week  ended  with  sales 
in  these  as  low  as  $10  to  $12.50  per 
thousand  for  assorted  varieties.  Extra 
fancies  in  choice  sorts  held  up  well  in 
price  in  small  lots.  America  is  still 
one  of  the  leaders  in  demand.  Extra 
fine  Panama  and  Schwaben  were  seen 
during  the  week. 

The  long  dry  spell  is  playing  havoc 
with  all  outdoor  stock  and  those  who

way.  A  good  soaking  rain  would  greatly 
help,  especially  the  asters,  field  carna-

Some  good  rose  stock  was  seen,  but 
from  outside  shippers.  The  local  rose 
crop  is  somewhat  limited  at  present. 
Carnations,  too,  are  scarce  and  lack 
quality  on  coming  into  this  market. 

Asters  are  small,  only  few  coming  in. 
New  England  shipments  of  asters  are 
expected  in  the  latter  part  of  this  montJi.

These    are    always    welcome    with    the 
trade  here. 

Good  valley  and  Easter  lilies  are  al- 
ways in  good  demand  here,  but  are 
scarce  at  present.  Among  the  best  out- 
door sellers  now  are  larkspur,  calendula, 
cornflowers,  snapdragons  and  daisies. 
There  are  large  demands  for  smilax, 
asparagus  and  ferns  daily  and  the  sup- 
ply is  about  equal  to  the  demand.

feet  day  for  an  occasion  of  this  kind. 
It  brought  out  the  largest  attendance 
that  any  of  the  regular  attendants  could 
remember  and  the  trustees  say  that  it 
was  over  the  500  mark.  Too  much  credit 
cannot  be  given  to  Messrs.  Buff,  Bour- 
det  and  Rowe  for  the  perfect  arrange- 
ments. They  were  on  the  job  early  and 
saw  to  it  that  each  arrival  was  made 
comfortable,  and  sociability  throughout 
the  day  marked  it  the  most  success- 
ful and  enjoyable  picnic  ever  given 
by  the  St.  Louis  Florists'  Club. 

The  various  athletic  events,  eleven  in 
all,  created  a  great  deal  of  excitement, 
as  more  interest  than  ever  was  displayed 
this  year  by  the  younger  folks,  larger 
entries  being  made  in  all  the  contests. 

One  of  the  features  of  these  was  the 
100-yard  dash  for  young  men.  This 
caused  much  merriment  when  J.  Bent- 
zen,  A.  Horn  and  Thomas  Finnigan  took 
"headers,"  and  each  will  have  to  buy 
a  new  pair  of  trousers.  The  tug  of  war,  as 
usual,  was  won  by  the  growers  against 
any  in  the  trade.  Captain  Joseph  Hau- 
ser,  of  the^rowers,  was  in  high  glee. 
The  thread  winding  contest  called  out  a 
large  number  of  ladies  and  created  much 
fun  for  the  large  crowd  of  onlookers. 
Then  came  the  most  exciting  part  of 
the  afternoon,  the  baseball  game  be- 
tween the  wholesalers  and  the  retailers. 
Manager  Hoffmann,  of  the  retailers,  and 
Manager  Kxiehner,  of  the  wholesalers, 
selected  the  best  teams  that  ever  con- 
tested for  this  event. 

Among  those  who  did  the  Babe  Ruth 
act  were  Fred  Hermann,  George  Berner 
and  Tom  Finnigan.  J.  Krager,  who 
played  third  base  for  the  wholesalers, 
had  a  chance  to  make  a  name  for  him- 
self, but  stopped  to  roll  a  cigarette  and 
missed  a  double  play.  "Billy"  Smith 
wagered  his  red  Hupmobile  on  the  whole- 
salers winning  and  left  the  grounds 
in  the  fourth  inning,  when  the  score 
was  14  to  7  in  favor  of  the  retailers, 
but  came  back  to  life -at  the  end  of  the 
game,  when  the  score  was  25  to  20  in

favor  of  the  wholesalers.  The  batteries 
for  the  retailers  were  Oscar  Ruflf  and 
J.  J.  Bentzcn  and  for  the  wholesalers 
George  Kuehner  and  Tom  Finnigan.  Ed- 
gar Sanders,  the  former  pitcher  for  the 
retailers,  is  now  pitching  professional 
ball,  but  his  brothers,  Oliver  and  Frank, 
took  part  and  played  fine  ball  all 
through,  while  Andy  Hoffmann,  Jr.,  and 
Ed  Niebling  made  star  plays.  Almost 
the  entire  crowd  watched  the  game  and 
the  rooters  had  plenty  of  work,  as  Cap- 
tains Gumz  and  Ruff  had  to  steady  their 
players  throughout  the  game.  The  um- 
piring of  Leonard  Baumann  was  per- 
fect, as  not  a  complaint  was  made  dur- 
ing the  game. 

The  winners  of  the  various  events 
were  as  follows:

the  national  body  in  St.  Louis  the  sec- 
ond week  in  September  met  with  full 
approval.  The  headquarters  during  the 
convention  and  the  meetings  will  be  at 
the  Marquette  hotel. 

New  delivery  trucks  seen  in  the 
wholesale  district  the  last  week  were 
those  of  Windlers'  Flowers  and  the 
Montgomery  Floral  Co. 

Ex-presidents  Irish,  Bourdet,  Fillmore, 
Pilcher  and  Beneke  were  at  the  picnic 
talking  over  old  times  with  President 
Hummert.  Those  who  helped  the  club's 
trustees  make  the  picnic  the  great  suc- 
cess that  it  was  are  Al.  Gumz,  George 
Kuehner,  F.  A.  Windier,  A.  Bourdet, 
Fred  Hermann  and  "Billy"  Loewnau. 
They  worked  every  minute  of  the  day. 

V.  J.  Gorly  and  family  have  returned 
from  a  week's  visit  to  Jerome,  Mo.  Mr. 
and  Mrs.  Frank  X.  Gorly  left  July  22 
for  San  Francisco,  Los  Angeles  and 
Pacific  coast  beach  resorts.  They  will 
return  about  September  by  way  of  the 
Canadian  Bockies.  Frank  O'Leary  is 
still  at  St.  John's  hospital,  a  seriously 
sick  man.  Mr.  and  Mrs.  Henry  Durin- 
berg  spent  the  week-end  at  Arcadia, 
Mo.  Otto  Klinger  will  be  married  next 
month  to  Miss  O'Neil.  Charles  Hahn 
has  resigned  as  manager  for  the  East  St. 
Louis  branch  and  will  this  fall  open  a 
place  of  his  own  on  the  east  side.

At  the  Arcade  Floral  Shop  Mrs.

TRI-CITY    FLORISTS'    OUTING. 

The  Tri-City  Florists'  Club,  composed 
of  members  of  the  trade  in  Moline  and 
Rock  Island,  111.,  and  Davenport,  la., 
held  its  annual  picnic  July  15  at  the 
summer  camp  of  William  Knees,  on  the 
Rock  river.  A  most  enjoyable  time  was 
had  by  all.  Races  and  athletic  events 
were  conducted,  with  Joseph  Tuckis  as 
master  of  sports.  The  main  event  of 
the  day  was  the  record-breaking  eating 
of  ice  cream  by  R.  M.  C.  Rholf. 

The  club  issues  a  challenge  to  all 
other  florists'  clubs  to  an  ice  cream  eat-

ness of  time  and  the  quantity  eaten.

Walter  Co.,  New  York,  is:  President, 
George  G.  Stumpp;  treasurer,  Julian  H. 
Walter;  secretary,  William  A.  Sperling. 

The  seed  trade  has  its  own  special 
problem  of  deflation  in  the  fact  that  it 
is  not  possible  to  increase  quickly  the 
consumption  of  seeds  by  reducing  the 
price. 

Thb  first  French  bulbs  arrived  on  the 
gteamer  Britannia  July  27,  having  left 
MarseUles  July  10.  A  larger  shipment 
will  come  on  the  Patria,  which  left  three 
days  later. 

"It  is  our  policy  to  print  only  those 
things  which  are  encouraging,"  s^s  the

How  misleading  such  a  publication  must 
be  until  its  readers  size  it  up!  And  after 
that  it  won 't  have  any  readers.

SEED  BIDS  OPENED. 

At  Washington  July  23. 

Friday,  July  23,  bids  were  opened  at 
the  Department  of  Agriculture,  in 
Washington,  D.  C,  for  the  supply  of 
seeds  to  be  purchased  by  the  govern- 
ment for  its  annual  congressional  dis- 
tribution. The  same  kinds  of  vegetable 
and  flower  seeds  were  supplied  as  in 
former  years.  The  number  of  firms  pre- 
senting bids  was  somewhat  larger  thau 
formerly,  the  various  houses  in  the  trade 
seeking  this  means  of  unloading  some 
of  the  surplus  which  rests  so  heavily  on 
their  hands  this  season. 

For  this  same  reason,  needless  to  say, 
the  prices  quoted  on  many  items  were 
much  below  the  figures  of  previous 
years.  A  good  many  firms  are  carrying 
larger  stocks  of  surplus  seeds  at  this 
time  than  they  would  like  to  admit. 
The  demand  this  year  was  not  at  all 
sufficient  to  clear  even  a  good  proportion 
of  the  stocks  on  hand.  As  a  result,  this 
trade  finds  itself  in  the  quite  anomalous 
position,  under  present  general  commer- 
cial conditions,  of  having  on  its  hands 
larg«  stocks  of   a  commodity  that  can-

equaled  for  size  and  coloring.  50c  per  trade  pkt.,  $1.25.  per

HENRY  A.  DREER,  714-716  chestnut  street,  Philadelphia,  Pa. 


not,  like  mercantile  lines,  be  moved  by 
post-season  sales  at  cut  prices,  and 
which  will,  another  season,  serve  to  de- 
press the  market  still  farther.  These 
cireumstances  led  to  the  increased  num- 
ber of  offers  to  the  Department  «f  Agri- 
culture  when  the  bids  were  filed  and  also 
to  the  low  prices  quoted  in  many  cases. 

Not  Fair  Market  Value. 

The  prices  so  quoted  do  not  and  can- 
not represent  anything  like  the  market 
value  of  these  seeds.  In  the  first  place, 
they  are  not  of  the  A-1  quality  the 
seedsmen  would  give  their  regular  cus- 
tomers. Neither  the  seedsmen  who  sup- 
ply them  nor  the  congressmen  who  dis- 
tribute them  nor  the  constituents  who 
receive  them  ever  are  under  the  delusion 
that  the  seed  is  anywhere  near  the  best 
obtainable.  The  lots  offered  to  the  gov- 
ernment are  on  a  par  with  the  roses  ped- 
dled by  the  street  man  or  the  vegetables 
hawked  on  Saturday  night — they  may  be 
of  the  same  variety,  but  they  are  far 
from  the  same  quality  of  the  roses  or 
vegetables  that  are  bought  through 
regular  channels. 

In  the  second  place,  the  prices  quoted 
by  the  bidders  were  made  low  so  that 
they  might  have  some  chance  of  ridding 
themselves  of  lots  of  seeds  which  al- 
ready represented  a  loss  and  could  only 
depreciate  more  in  value  while  on  their 
hands.  To  realize  what  they  could  on 
these  stocks,  be  it  ever  so  little,  was  the 
object  of  the  bidders. 

The  Bight  Bonte? 

Whether  this  was  the  best  or  wisest 
route  to  clear  themselves  of  this  surplus 
seedsmen  are  doubtful  themselves.  Only 
a  certain  quantity  is  required  by  the  De- 
partment of  Agriculture  for  distribution 
and  no  more  is  purchased  because  the 
priees  happen  to  be  low.  It  appears  to 
some  as  though  the  seed  trade  was  mere- 
ly giving  its  merchandise  at  less  money 
than  need  be  for  the  sake  of  competing 
with  one  another  in  an  attempt  to  dump 
a  surplus.  Whether,  in  a  year  such  as 
this,  the  tiade  would  not  oe  better  off

The  Florists^  Review

A   New   Gladi 

.  A  Pure  White  Sport  of  America 

I  have  growing  on  my  place  at 
Amelia,  Ohio,  10,000  bulbs  of 
this  variety  that  will  bloom  dur- 
ing August,  and  also  all  the 
bulblets  produced  last  year. 


if.' 


This   variety    originated  with 
me  and  no  stock  has  as  yet 


passed  from  my  possession. 

I  wish  to  sell  the  entire  stock 

and  wish  to  hear  from  anyone 

interested  in  something  really 

good. 

Call  and  see  it  growing  in  the 

field. 


CHARLES   POMMERT,    Amelia,   Ohio 


to  regulate  its  offers — through  the 
American  Seed  Trade  Association  per- 
haps— so  that  a  minimum  might  be 
fixed,  is  a  problem  that  body's  execu- 
tives might  consider.  It  would  be  neces- 
sary to  avoid  a  combination  in  restraint 
of  trade  liable  to  government  prosecu- 
tion. On  the  other  hand,  it  might  be 
possible  to  obtain,  for  the  seeds  sold  to 
the  government  this  year,  considerably 
more  money  than  will  be  received  by  the 
successful  bidders  among  those  whose 
offers  were  read  last  Friday. 


ONION  SETS  AT   CHICAGO. 

Because  the  acreage  is  somewhat  re- 
duced this  year  it  is  reassuring  to  find 
that  the  Chicago  district  will  have  con- 
siderably better  than  an  average  yield 
of  onion  sets.  Just  what  the  outturn 
will  be  can  not,  of  course,  be  foretold, 
as  so  uncertain  a  factor  as  the  date  of 
the  next  good  rain  will  determine  quan- 
tity, but  it  looks  as  though  the  crop 
might  easily  be  eight  bushels  per  pound 
of  seed.  An  average  crop  is  figured  as 
six  for  one  and  practically  every  patch 
is  counted  on  for  something  better  than 
that  this  year.  A  soaking  rain  within 
the  next  few  days  would  add  a  good 
many  thousand  bushels  to  the  total  yield 
of  the  district  by  causing  the  sets  to 
bottom  out  well;  it  would  improve  the 
quality  while  adding  to  the  quantity. 
But  to  be  of  value  the  rain  must  come 
soon;  the  crop  is  nearly  made.  Harvest- 
ing the  early  sets  will  begin  within  the 
week. 

A  good  many  truckers  who  employ 
labor,  or  would  if  they  could,  planted 
no  seed  for  sets  this  year;  last  year's 
small  crop  and  the  high  cost  of  labor 
deterred  them.  The  crop  this  year  is 
being  grown  in  smaller  patches  by  men 
who  have  large  families  to  do  the  work. 
The  average  outturn  last  year  did  not 
exceed  three  bushels  per  pound  of  seed 
and  there  were  many  patches  which  did 
not  giye  more  than  one  bushel  per  pound 
of  high-priced  seed.  This  year,  how- 
ever, seed  was  cheaper  and  canvassing 
to  place  it  was  more  thorough  and  as  a 
result  there  are  a  considerable  number 
of  new  growers,  especially  in  the  ter- 
ritory southwest  of  the  city.

and  stacking  them  to  cure,  then  thresh- 
ing them  in  a  machine,  as  most  growers 
do.  While  picking  by  hand  the  fields  get 
rogued  almost  daily,  not  only  for  off 
colors  but  Winter  flowering  plants  only 
are  permitted  to  remain.

densed list  of  seasonable  flower  seeds  and  a

Feter  Henderson  ft  Co.,  New  York,  N.  Y. — 
"Seeds  fur  Summer  Sowing,"  an  illustrated  82- 
page  catalogue  of  seeds  and  supplies.  The 
cover,  printed  in  black  and  red,  is  both  attrac- 
tive and  appropriate,  illustrating  and  emphasis- 
ing tlie  slogan,  "Make  your  garden  work  full 
time."  Vanous  suggestions  are  offered  on  the 
successive  sowing  of  garden  seeds.  On  page  1

to  description."  The  stock  is  so  classified,  by 
color  and  season  of  bloom,  as  to  aid  as  much 
as  possible  in  the  selection  of  varieties.  By  a 
special  mark,  Mr.  Peterson  indi'-ates  what  he 
considers  "the  l)e8t  moderate-prced  sort  in

New  Early-Flowering  or  Winter-Blooming         ^ 

An  entirely  new  and  distinct  strain  of  Pansles.  The  main  advantage  of  these  new 
Pansles  over  all  hitherto  existing  Pansles  is  the  extreme  earliness  of  flowering.  Sown 
at  the  some  time  an  other  Pannlen,  they  begin  flowering  the  early  part  of  March  or 
as  snon  as  the  unnw  Is  off  the  ground,  many  times  having  four  or  five  large  flowers 
to  a  plant,  when  all  other  Pansles  are  only  showing  buds.  The  flowers  are  large;  well 
formed  and  fragrant.

The  Florists^  Review 


Jolt  29,  1920 


The  Poughkeepsie  Nursery  Co.  was 
recently  incorporated  at  Brooklyn,  N.  Y., 
for  $10,000,  -with  W.  J.  Godding,  I.  God- 
ding and  F.  MacDowell  as  incorporators. 

French  prices  on  peonies  have  in- 
creased approxilnately  300  per  cent,  on 
account  of  the  greater  expense  of  cultiva- 
tion. A  less  advance  is  quoted  to  Amer- 
ican buyers  who  remit  in  dollars. 

NEW  B.ULES  AGAINST  PESTS. 

Important  new  safeguards  will  go  into 
effect  August  1  in  all  ports  of  the  Unit-, 
ed  States  regarding  plants  and  plant 
products  whose  introduction  into  this 
country  is  restricted  or  prohibited  by 
quarantine  or  other  orders  of  the  Unit- 
ed States  Department  of  Agriculture, 
according  to  the  department's  report. 
The  new  regulations  have  just  been  is- 
sued by  the  Secretary  of  Agriculture 
and  pertain  to  the  arrival  of  prohibited 
and  restricted  plants  carried  on  vessels 
arriving  at  ports  where  entry  or  landing 
is  not  intended.  The  provisions  sup- 
plement regulations  which  have  been 
in  force  for  several  years  relating  to 
entry  for  immediate  export  and  entry 
for  immediate  transportation  and  ex- 
portation in  bond,  of  prohibited  plants 
and  plant  products.  The  enforcement 
of  the  quarantines  of  the  Department  of 
Agriculture  at  ports  of  entry  has  shown 
the  necessity  for  more  adequate  safe- 
guards with  respect  to  restricted  and 
prohibited  plants  or  plant  products 
where  entry  or  landing  at  a  port  is  not 
intended.  These  safeguards  have  now 
been  provided,  making  less  likely  the 
escape  of  insects  or  plant  diseases  from 
vessels  temporarily  stopping  in  United 
States  harbors. 

The  new  regulations  provide  that  a 
report  shall  be  made  to  the  Secretary  of 
Agriculture  by  the  captain  or  other  per- 
son in  charge  of  a  vessel  arriving  at  a 
United  States  port  and  containing  on 
board  plants  or  plant  products  the  en- 
try of  which  is  prohibited  or  restricted. 
This  report  must  state  the  nature  and 
quantity  of  such  plants  or  plant  prod- 
ucts, the  country  or  locality  of  origin, 
the  date  of  arrival,  the  date  of  sailing 
from  the  United  States  port,  together 
with  a  statement  indicating  the  steps 
taken  to  prevent  the  escape  of  insects 
or  plant  diseases  which  they  may  carry. 

It  is  further  provided  that  the  per- 
son in  charge  of  such  vessels  must  al- 
low inspection  of  his  craft  and  must 
take  such  measures  as  are  prescribed  by 
the  inspector  representing  the  Depart- 
ment of  Agriculture,  to  prevent  the 
landing  of  any  such  plants  or  plant  prod- 


ucts or  the  escape  of  insects  or  plant 
diseases  which  they  may  carry.  The 
collector  of  customs^  in  cooperation  with 
the  inspector  of  the  Department  of 
Agriculture,  may  require  such  person 
to  destroy  the  objectionable  plants  and 
plant  products  or  to  remove  them  forth- 
with from  the  port  and  the  territorial 
waters  of  the  United  States.  If  neces- 
sary, the  inspector  of  the  department 
may  require  the  disinfection  of  the  ves- 
sel in  accordance  with  methods  pre- 
scribed by  the  Department  of  Agricul- 
ture. 

DISEASED  PERENNIALS. 

I  am  sending  some  leaves  and 
branches  of  a  few  perennials,  also  one 
elderberry,  all  attacked  by  insects  or 
disease.  Can  you  let  me  know  what  the 
trouble  is  and  what  remedy  can  be  used 
for  itt  All  the  plants  are  on  the  grounds 
of  one  of  my  customers  and  I  am,  of 
course,  interested  in  it.  Also,  please  let

The  particular  insect  I  am  unacquainted 
with,  but  a  spraying  with  a  combined 
poison  and  fungicide  would  be  effective. 
You  can  purchase  combined  sprays  of 
this  nature,  like  Pyrox,  or  you  can  use 
arsenate  of  lead  and  Bordeaux  mixture 
in  combination.  This  spray  will  not

The  Market. 

The  demand  for  all  kinds  of  stock 
has  fallen  considerably  and  the  time 
has  come  for  most  florists  to  take  a 
much  needed  rest  and  vacation.  With 
the  exception  of  a  few  weddings  and 
funerals,  there  has  been  little  business 
in  this  market  during  the  last  week, 
and  still  it  seems  as  though  business  is 
a  little  better  than  last  year  at  this 
time.  Stock  is  arriving  in  much  greater 
abundance,  especially  gladioli.  Few  as- 
ters and  dahlias  are  on  the  market, 
while  sweet  peas,  bachelor's  buttons, 
water  lilies,  coreopsis,  gaillardia,  gypso- 
phila,  achillea  and  calendula  seem  to  be 
the  flowers  most  in  evidence.  The  price 
of  gladioli  has  steadily  decreased  with 
the  greater  supply,  although  they  are 
still  bringing  4  and  6  cents.  The 
weather  has  been  quite  cool,  which  in  a 
way  is  advantageous  to  the  keeping  of 
«tock.  Carnations  are  gone  for  a  time, 
but  roses  are  coming  in  better  every 
day.  Fancy  ferns  have  been  arriving 
in  poor  shape,  making  a  decided  loss 
for  the  jobbers.

The  Market. 

Eoses  and  gladioli  are  the  mainstay 
of  the  market.  These  are  abundant;  in 
fact,  in  larger  supply  than  the  demand 
can  absorb.  Gladioli  of  all  varieties  are 
on  display  and  sell  for  $6  to  $8  per  hun- 
dred. Eoses  are  of  good  quality,  con- 
sidering the  season.  Columbia  and 
Premier  are  unusually  fine,  being  the 
leaders  in  demand. 

Carnations  are  gone.  A  few  asters 
are  putting  in  an  appearance,  but  are 
not  first-class  blooms.  White  and  laven- 
der predominate,  but  a  few  pink  ones 
Ere  available. 

Garden  flowers  are  in  evidence. 
Strawflowers  are  numerous.  Statice  is 
now  in  the  market  and  meets  with  ready 
sale.  Other  offerings  include  zinnias, 
baby's  breath,  phlox,  delphinium  and 
marigolds.

The  Market. 

Business  has  been  picking  up  the  last 
week;  in  fact,  July  promises  to  be  bet- 
ter than  last  year,  even  with  less  stock. 
Outside  stock  is  not  plentiful.  Shasta 
daisies  and  the  single  gypaophila  are 
about  gone  nrfw,  but  some  fine  double 
gypsophila  can  be  had.  Much  of  this  is 
being  dried  for  winter  use.  The  rose 
supply  is  fair.  There  have  not  been 
many  funerals.  Shipping  business  has 
been  good,  with  the  demand  greater  than 
the  supply.

CRAIG  QUALITY 

Plants  for  Growing  On 

On  account  of  selling  our  Philadelphia  property  we  are  compelled  to  make 
room  at  our  Norwood   plant,  and  offer  some  of   our  specialties  at  less  than 

regular  prices.     They  are   Sure   Money   Makers   and  indispensable  for  fall  and  Christmas  trade. 
The  wide-awake  growers  will  surely  take  immediate  advantage  of  this  offer:

Greenhouse  Heating 

SirBSCRiBEBS  are  invited  to  write  the 
editor  of  this  department  with  regard  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,  tiie  needed  temperatures 
should  be  stated  in  the  inquiry,  as  well 
as  the  amount  of  glass  in  tiie  side  walls, 
and  the  dimensions  and  general  arrange- 
ment of  the  greenhouses.  It  is  often  help- 
fill,  also,  to  have  a  sketch  showing  the 
location  of  the  houses. 


NEED  OF  OIBCXTI1A.TOB. 

The  bottom  of  my  boiler  is  two  feet 
below  the  level  of  the  greenhouse  floor 
and  a  4-inch  pipe  leads  out  of  the  boiler 
and  through  the  boiler  room  and  goes 
around  both  sides  of  the  house,  one 
under  the  eaves  and  one  on  the  purlins. 
The  house  is  five  feet  to  the  eaves  and 
ten  feet  to  the  ridge.  There  is  eighteen 
inches  of  glass  in  the  side  walls.  There 
is  a  fall  of  one  inch  for  every  fifteen 
feet,  but  I  can  not  keep  a  temperature 
of  60  degrees.  What  can  I  do  about  itt 
Where  can  I  get  a  mercury  circulator  t 

N.  McD. — ^Kan. 


The  circulation  of  the  water  in  a  hot 
water  heating  system  depends  more 
upon  the  height  of  the  returns  above 
the  boiler  than  upon  the  slope  of  the 
pipes,  which  need  only  be  sufficient  to 
free  them  of  air.  From  the  foregoing 
it  is  judged  that  the  returns  are  not 
much  over  one  foot  above  the  grate 
and,  as  has  been  previously  advised, 
if  they  cannot  be  raised  it  will  be  neces- 
sary to  put  on  a  mercury  circulator. 
This  can  be  obtained  from  the  boiler 
manufacturers  who  advertise  in  The 
Review.  Whether  or  not  the  circulator 
is  used,  the  flow  pipes,  as  well  as  the 
returns,  should  have  a  slight  fall.  If 
they  run  uphill  this  would  largely  ac- 
count for  the  failure  to  secure  good  re- 
sults. 


HEATINQ  CONSEEVATOBY. 

We  are  building  a  greenhouse  and  a 
conservatory,  as  shown  in  the  sketch 
I  am  sending  you.  I  wish  to  maintain 
a  temperature  of  55  to  60  degrees  in 
the  greenhouse  when  the  outside  tem- 
perature is  30  degrees  above  zero.  There 
are  no  posts  in  the  conservatory,  the 
roof  being  supported  by  bridgework. 
There  are  no  benches  in  it,  but  there  is 
a  rockery  at  one  end,  which  will  pre- 
vent laying  the  pipes  all  around  the 
house.  How  many  2  and  2^/^ -inch  pipes 
will  be  needed  for  flows  and  returns  t 
What  size  of  boiler  will  be  required, 
using  oil  for  fuel?  Would  a  tubular  or 
sectional  boiler  be  better  or  can  you 
recommend  a  special  heating  system  for 
burning  oil  ?  F.  W. — Cal. 


From  the  sketch  it  is  learned  that  the 
conservatory  is  26x28  feet,  with  two  of 
the  corners  cut  away,  thus  giving  it  an 
octagon  cflFeot  at  one  end.  The  walls 
are  of  cement,  three  feet  high,  with  five 
and  a  half  feet  of  glass,  except  one  end 
wall,  which  is  of  concrete  to  the  height 
of  eight  and  one-half  feet.  One  side 
wall  is  protected  by  the  north  end  of  the 
greenhouse.  The  boiler  house  is  at  the 
northeast  end  of  the  conservatory.  The 
rockery  is  located  against  the  west  wall. 
If    it    could    be    eighteen    inches    away 


THE  KROESCHELL 

HOT  WATER  BOILER 


Here  is  the  boiler  that  is  makins  the  moit  wonderful  greenhouse 
heating  record  in  the  world.  Florists  and  gardeners  who  have 
used  other  makes  are  constantly  giving  the  KROESCHELL 
Greenhouse  Boiler  the  highest  praise. 

8,974,606  sQuare  feet  of  glass  was  equipped  with  KROESCHELL 
Boilers  during  1916-1917.  You  will  find  the  KROESCHELL  in 
every  State  ia  the  Union  and  Canada.  The  supremacy  of  KROE- 
SCHELL Boilers  is  proved  by  their  country -wide  adoption. 


Every  boiler  made  at  our  works  is  of  the  highest  standard.  Ma- 
terial—governed by  Kroesthell  specifications— the  best  that 
money  and  brains  can  produce.  Worhmanship— the  kind  that  is 
an  inspiration  to  all  boiler  makers.  Boiler  eflSciency— deter- 
mined by  actual  tests  under  working  conditions.  Boiler  ratings 
—  honest  and  true  blue  — guaranteed  actual  working  capacities. 


The  superiority  of  our  boilers  has  resulted  in  the  removal  and 
abolishment  of  hundreds  of  sectional  cast-iron  boilers.  In  every 
instance  KROESCHELL  BOILERS  give  more  heat  with  the  same 
piping  and  with  less  fuel.

There  is  little  choice  between  the 
tubular  and  the  sectional  cast-iron

The  Market. 

Both  retailers  and  wholesalers  report 
good  business,  especially  for  July,  but 
stock  is  not  so  plentiful  as  it  usually 
ip  at  this  time  of  the  year.  The  short- 
age of  help  hindered  the  work  of  {)lant- 
ing  out,  but  it  is  completed  now. 

Some  of  the  growers  have  all  or  part 
of  their  coal  and  have  paid  as  high  as 
$8.85  per  ton  on  the  track.  Some  green- 
house men  use  gas  all  of  the  time  for 
heat  and  some  only  part  of  the  time. 

Various  Notes. 

Gustav  Schneider  has  about  com- 
pleted the  rebuilding  of  his  place  after 
a  fire.  Two  houses  and  a  potting  shed 
are  finished  and  in  use.  The  other  three 
houses  are  rapidly  nearing  completion. 

B.  C  Blake  is  erecting  a  new  green- 
house, 20x80  feet,  to  take  care  of  his 
increasing  trade.  The  potting  shed  is 
completed  and  half  of  the  roofbars  are 
in  place. 

J.  O.  Click  is  also  improving  his  place. 
One  house,  14x90  feet,  is  ready  for  the 
roofbars  and  two  others,  22x125  and 
10x125  feet,  are  contemplated  for  this 
fall. 

The  Good  &  Reese  Co.  is  installing 
two  90-horsepower  boilers  in  a  new  con- 
crete boiler  house,  which  will  be 
equipped  with  iron  stairs  and  with  an 
electric  hoist  for  ashes  and  will  be  up- 
to-date  in  every  way. 

Harold  McGregor,  having  sold  his  in- 
terests in  the  McGregor  Bros,  Co.,  is 
building  a  range  to  grow  shrubbery  and 
geraniums.  He  expects  to  have  his 
houses  ready  by  September  1. 

The  Springfield  Floral  Co.  is  rebuild- 
ing the  entire  south  side  of  its  place, 
which  has  not  been  used  for  several 
years.  This  contains  nine  houses,  20x80 
feet.

The  Market. 

Summer  weather  has  thrown  its  spell 
over  business  and  trade  is  rather  quiet 
now.  There  are  a  few  July  weddings, 
however,  and  funeral  work  keeps  up 
well.  Bedding  plants  are  still  being  sold 
in  midsummer,  due  largely  to  the.^ale 
season.  Boston  ferns  are  selling'^  well 
now.  Gypsophila  is  arriving  on  the  mar- 
ket in  large  quantities  and  florists  are 
drying  it  for  fall  and  winter  use.  It 
seems  better  than  ever  this  year. 

Halley  gladioli  are  plentiful  and  are 
much  in  demand.  America  is  slow  in 
maturing  and  is  still  green  and  in  bud. 
Francis  Scott  Key  roses  are  excellent, 
as  are  Ophelia  and  Premier.  Carna- 
iiions  are  small.  A  mammoth  crop  of 
Harrisii  lilies  has  arrived.  Sweet  peas 
are  flooding  the  market  and  the  street 
venders  are  selling  them  for  10  cents 
per  bunch.  Eamblers  in  pink  and  red 
have  been  plentiful,  but  are  about 
through  now.  Achillea,  larkspur,  gail- 
lardia,  daisies  and  phlox  are  in  great 
favor  now.  Southern  asparagus  is  arriv- 
ing in  large  quantities. 

Various  Notes. 

Much  interest  is  being  manifested  in 
the  annual  picnic  of  the  florists,  which 
will  be  held  Thursday,  August  5.  Get 
your  tickets  for  this  event  at  once. 

George  B.  Hart  is  living  at  Lake  On- 
tario during  July  and  August. 

Harry  Merritt's  field  carnations  are 
in  fine  condition  and  he  will  begin  plant- 
ing them  under  glass  in  another  week. 

C.  W.  Curtis  is  cutting  some  excellent 
gypsophila  in  large  quantities.

The  Florists^  Review

WASHINaTON,  D.  0. 


The  Market. 

With  vacation  time  at  hand,  business 
has  been  quiet,  with  the  exception  of 
funeral  work.  The  season  has  been  sat- 
isfactory and  the  florists  expect  things 
to  be  a  little  slow  during  the  hot,  sum- 
mer months.  Most  members  of  the  trade 
are  using  this  spare  time  in  making  im- 
provements and  preparing  for  next  sea- 
son. The  supply  of  roses  and  gladioli 
exceeded  the  demand  during  the  last 
week.     Greens  were  also  in  abundance. 

Various  Notes. 

J.  V.  Janak,  of  Z.  D.  Blackistone's 
force,  is  spending  his  vacation  in  Texas. 

A.  Newman,  of  George  C.  Shaffer's 
force,  is  also  away  on  his  vacation. 

George  C.  Shaffer  has  returned  after 
an  extensive  trip  in  connection  with  the 
Killopolis  Grotto. 

The  rotogravure  section  of  the  Star, 
July  25,  contained  an  interesting  picture 
of  a  floral  horseshoe  presented  to  Sir 
Thomas  Lipton  by  B.  J.  Greenhut  on 
board  the  yacht  Victoria.  G.  V.  S. 


OKMULGEE,  OKLA. 

The  new  greenhouses  of  the  Okmul- 
gee Greenhouse  Co.  are  almost  com- 
pleted. The  range  consists  of  two 
houses,  32x160  feet;  one  house,  15x160 
ieet,  and  a  new  house  ordered,  32x160 
feet.  The  houses  are  planted  with  car- 
nations, chrysanthemums  and  pot  plants 
and  the  new  house  will  be  used  for  vege- 
tables. A  wholeaale  and  retail  business 
will  be  carried  on  by  this  firm.  George 
W.  Marshall,  who  is  president,  also  con- 
ducts a  retail  store  in  the  city.  Mr. 
Marshall  came  here  from  Pittsburgh, 
Pa.,  eighteen  months  ago.  G.  M.  John, 
formerly  of  Sherman,  Tex.,  has  charge 
of  the  greenhouses.

^jJFigure  It  Out  for  Yourself 

Of  course,  when  we  studied  'rithmetic  —  with  the  old  school 
marin  who'd  been  wielding  the  ruler  since  before  the  day  the 
apple  fell  on  Sir  Isaac  Newton's  dome  -  we  were  taught 
that  it  couldn't  be  done. 

But  now,  we've  found  a  way  to  do  it. 

Fact  is  we  know  dozens  of  florists  who  are  doing  it  every 
week  in  the  year. 

If  you  don't  believe  it,  you  can  figure  it  out  for  yourself. 

You  know  there  are  two  big,  double  items  of  expense  in 
growing  any  crop. 

They  are: 

Overhead  and  Labor     2 

Seeds  lor  plants )  and  Fertilizer  2 

So  we  can  say,  the  crop     . .      . .     =4 

But  suppose  you  could  take  exactly  the  same  overhead,  plants, 
fertilizer  and  labor-and  DOUBLE  THE  CROP. 

That  is  just  what  Skinner  System  Irrigation  is  doing 
for  its  users. 

Outdoors  it  often  doubles  the  number  of  blooms  on  asters, 
"glads,"  dahlias  and  the  like. 

And  the  size  and  the  flower  leads  on  carnation  plants,  and 
the  number  of  cuttings  on  stock  plants. 

Indoors  it  has  increased  the  cut,  while  cutting  in  two  the 
cost  of  waterini;. 

One  of  our  portable  lines  can  be  put  in  ug^j^ mediately  — 
outdoors  or  in.  \ 


Write  today  for  full  pejjnculars  and  a  copipm  "RAIN,  For 
the  Asking."  which  shows  by  photos  and  letters  how  YOU

Asbestos 


Black  Glazing  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  ia  a  cement-like  composition  of  Asbeatos  Fibres,  and  heavy,  semi-drying 
hydro-carbon  oils.  Its  exceptionally  long  life  is  due  la  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  ourproduct  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.

l';  ~^  Th&  Market. 

The  condition  of  the  market  last  week 
was  much  better  than  it  has  been  for 
two  or  three  weeks.  A  good  demand 
has  developed  since  the  prices  broke  and 
stock  of  all  kinds  has.  moved  at  prevail- 
ing low  prices.  However,  the  present 
prices  are  a  shade  better  than  they  have 
been. 

The  Club  Outing. 

Never  in  the  history  of  the  Buffalo 
Florists'  Club  was  there  such  a  large 
attendance  as  at  this  year's  picnic  at 
the  Automobile  Club,  Clarence,  N.  Y., 
July  21.  The  day  seemed  to  promise 
rain  for  the  afternoon,  but,  as  it  ad- 
vanced, it  cleared  up  and  made  an  ideal, 
cool  outing  day.  From  noon  to  6  p.  m. 
automobiles  sped  on  their  way  to  the 
club  grounds  and  when  supper  was  an- 
nounced 215  were  there  to  be  served. 
Many  just  stayed  for  the  afternoon 
games  and  left  in  the  early  evening  and 
an  estimate  of  the  entire  attendance 
would  be  conservative  at  350,  which  is 
about  seventy-five  per  cent  better  than 
last  year. 

The  results  and  prizes  for  some  of  the 
events  were:  Baseball  throwing  contest, 
baskets  valued  at  $15,  won  by  William 
Kasting;  ladies'  baseball  throwing  con- 
test, fancy  ribbon,  won  by  Miss  Blanca, 
of  Colonial  Flower  Shop;  sack  race, 
John  E.  Gittere,  first;  100-yard  dash,  for 
members  of  the  club  over  40  years  of 
age,  with  Neubeck,  Bruecker,  Grevcr, 
Sletter^  and  Eebstock  entered,  finally 
won  by  William  H.  Grever  after  three 
attempts,  which  raised  a  "dispute  about 
the  age;  100-yard  dash,  open,  Jimmy 
Longley,  first,  and  J.  E.  Gittere,  second. 

There  was  a  special  contest  for  the 
growers.  It  was  throwing  a  baseball  in 
a  flower  pot  and  was  won  by  John  Prie- 
sach,  of  Corfu.  The  egg  and  spoon  race 
was  won  by  Laura  Kasting. 

The  committee  for  the  outing  was 
composed  of  Emil  Bruecker  and  Edward 
Stratemeyer.  F.  P.  A.        '

Business  conditions  among  the  local 
florists  are  about  normal,  although  cut 
flower  trade  shows  a  slight  improve- 
ment, if  anything,  over  previous  sum- 
mers. Funeral  work  holds  active,  but 
otherwise  there  is  little  doing.  Reno- 
vations, improvements  and  expansions 
are  the  order  of  the  day  and  vacations 
are  being  enjoyed. 

Various  Notes. 

An  automobile  truck  owned  by  Eu- 
gene McCarron,  operated  by  his  son, 
Edward  J.  McCarron,  was  struck  by  an 
electric  car  on  Hope  street  July  22, 
causing  considerable  damage  to  the  ma- 
chine and  giving  the  young  man  a  se- 
vere shaking-up.

A  Dripless  Eave 
That  Evens  Up  the  Drip 


Here  we  are,  talking:  (Irii)less  eave  ayaiii. 
Talking  it.  because  tliere  lias  been  a  lot 
of  talking  about  it  that's  not  so.     And 
a  whole  lot  that  is  exactly  so. 
Tjct's  take  the  not-so's  first. 

[t  has  l)een  stated  that  "the  drip  won't 
always  follow  down  the  curve  of  the 
fascLa  on  to  the  side  sash,  and  so  on 
down  to  the  sill."  Our  reply  to  which 
is:  sometimes  both  automobiles  and 
folks  get  moody  and  won't  do  what 
they  ought  to  do. 

Hut  water  has  a  way  of  always  acting 
exactly  like  water.  The  fact  that  it 
runs  downhill  is  as  well  established 
as  that  it's  wet. 

That  eave  fascia  runs  downhill  just 
enough,  and  is  just  the  right  slia|)e.  so 
that  water  clings  to  it,  and  runs  down 
and  off  on  the  glas>. 

As  long  as  llic  cave  remains  a  well 
behaved  e;ive.  and  does  not  turn  a  som- 
ersault or  >taiid  (III  its  head,  the  drii» 
will  not  drip;  it  will  run. 

Another  thing  the  drij)  is  supposed  to 
do,  when  yuur  back  i>  turned,  is  start 
going  uphill  and  work  its  way  back 
behind  tiie  plate  and  start  rotting  out 
the  fa^cia      .lu>t  one  little  look  at  the 


That's  exactly  what  we  said;  it's 
so  doggoned  simple  that  there's 
nothing  to  it.  Still,  it  does  what 
some  other  lhing.-<  do  sometimes 
and  sometimes  don't.   Therefore! 


fascia  will  show  you  the  boyishness  of 
such  a  statement.  It  will  no  more  go 
wandering  around  behind  that  fascia, 
than  it  will  any  other  -  which  up  to 
date  has  never  caused  any  serious  rot- 
ting, so  far  as  we  have  ever  heard. 

The  only  trouble  witii  this  dripless  eave 

of  ours  is,  it's  too  simple. 

It's  so  simple  it  just  doesn't  seem  so. 

It's  so  simple,  there  is  so  little  to  talk 

about,  that  a  fellow  looks  at  it  and  kind 

of  thinks  he  isn't  getting  much. 

But  it  isn't  what  you  get,  that  counts 

so  much,  as  what  it  does. 

The  fact  that  it  does  not  drip  on  the  sill, 
and  sitlasli  on  your  walks  and  plants, 
is  about  all  you  can  expect. 

Furthermore,  there  is  nothing  to  clog  up. 
Nothing  to  sag  and  run  over. 
Nothing  to  rust  out. 

Our  dri|»less  eaves  will  be  doing  their 
driples>  job  as  long  as  a  Hitchings 
House  will  be  a  house;  which  is  so  long 
it  niake>  one  wrinkled,  old  and  graj 
even  to  think  of  it. 

And  yiiu  know  we  go  any  where  for  busi- 
ness. 
Or  to  tiilk  business.

It's  Like  This: 


You  might  read  all  the  newspaper  articles  in  the  world  alwut  a  certain  battle,  but  when  you'd  finished  you 
wouldn't  have  as  vital  and  convinciug  a  picture  of  it  in  jour  mind  as  you  would  after  a  three-hour  talk  with  a  wide- 
awake, alert  man  who  had  been  in  the  thick  of  it  and  had  the  map  of  the  battle-field- on  the  table  in  front  of  you. 

The  same  principle  applies  in  buy  ins  greenhouse-. 

You  can  read  catiilopues,  letters  and  what-not,  liut  when  you  tinish  reading  them  you 
don't  have  as  clear  and  satisfactory  an  understanding  of  the  house  you  want  as  you  would  alter 
talking  with  and  cross-examining  an  AGMCO  sale>man.     Because  — 

An  AGMCO  salesman  knows  the  greenhouse  he's  selling  and  greenhouses  in  general.     He  can  explain  in  simple  language 
what  he  has  to  say  and  he  can  answer  your  qaettioni,  as  he's  actually  bowed  down  witli  a  load  of  information  you  want. 

An  AGMCO  salesman  always  has  his  grip  parked. 

When  do  you  want  to  see  one  ?
