Marguerites.
If nicely flowered white marguerites
are wanted in December, the plants
should be in 3-inch or 4-inch pots.
They will continue to throw flowering
wood all summer and look rather un-
promising. Never mind that; keep
them pinched and potted along. Dis-
continue the pinching in the early part
of October and two months later they
will prove useful. I have found the
old, small-flowered varieties far the
best for pot culture. Mrs. Sander does
not make a shapely plant, and Queen
Alexandra is not a midwinter bloomer.
Coming to the yellow marguerites,
these are not so easily handled as the
white ones. They, however, have
greater value as cut flowers. Some
growers carry over the old plants year
after year, until they are old, gnarled
specimens like some of the so-called
century-old Japanese conifers. These
are kept on the dry side in summer,
in coldframes with a light shelter
above them to reduce the strength of
the sun's rays. In September they are
stood in a house where they have a
chance to root through into the benches
or beds. All are agreed that for mid-
winter flowering restricted root run is
an advantage. Where grown in benches
the plants can be carried over if de-
sired, pruned back after flowering, run
dry for some time and started up again
in August.
If an early spring crop is wanted,
bench the plants in September. They
will give some winter flowers, but not
a really heavy crop until spring. Young
plants to be grown along should not
be allowed to get pot bound. As usual,
a certain percentage of plants may be
expected to come blind, especially
among late propagations. Thete is a
great and growing demand for yellow
marguerites in winter. There are a
few points to remember: The most
suitable night temperature is 48 to 50
degrees; roots must only have a lim-
ited range; pots or benches, once well
filled with roots, can be top-dressed
and fed quite freely after February.
Plants can be carried over for a num-
ber of years, but it is being proved
that young stock gives just as good
results.
Cyclamens.
Cyclamens are making capital growth
and will require spacing apart occasion-
ally. If a nice, light house is at dis-
posal, splendid cyclamens can be grown
in it, provided some shade is afforded
and the house is kept well ventilated
all the time. Thrips are apt to prove
troublesome in summer and the house
should be given a nicotine fumigation
once a week. The plants enjoy a spray-
ing each afternoon and on hot days
they will appreciate it several times,
but only enough should be given to
moisten the leaves and create a nice
atmospheric moisture. Heavy syring-
ings are liable to create a slimy sur-
face on the pots, which we do not
a
want. In potting the plants be sure to
use leaf-mold which is flaky rather
than much decomposed. Bather more
old decayed manure should be added
at the final potting.
When a suitable greenhouse cannot
at this season be afforded the cyclam-
ens, probably a good coldframe can
be used. Plunge the pots about half
their depth in clean coal ashes, ele-
vate the shades well, back and front,
and leave the air on continuously. Do
not shade the glass; that will only
draw the plants up and it is stockiness
which counts. Use lath shadings, and
only when the sun shines. Spray at
least once a day. On cool, cloudy days
and nights which are likely to be
clear the sashes are better removed
altogether. Spray the plants with a
nicotine extract or some other good in-
secticide to keep them clean.
unsuitable soil or other causes. Your
plants would do better if you would
pot them singly in 2^ -inch pots. Be
sure the seedlings are not leggy br
crowded before potting. If you have
any leaf-mold or even half rotted
leaves which you could add to your
soil, it would be an advantage. If you
could sterilize or bake the soil you use
for seedlings, all weed seeds, fungi and
insects, with the eggs, would be de-
stroyed. If you do not want to go to
this trouble, water the soil with Ber-
mine, one part to 300 parts of water.
Sterilization of the soil would make a
wonderful difference to your lettuce
crop. C. W.
PLANTS FOB LABOE BED.
The steel company in our town has a
piece of ground 75x500, in the center
of which they would like to put a bed
twenty feet across. What would be
the best hardy plants for this, high in
the center and lower at the outer edges?
As a railroad runs near the west side
of this, there will be lots of smoke and
dust to contend with. Would like plants
that will look well all summer in a
western Pennsylvania climate.

STOCKS DOING POOBLY.
Enclosed you will find two plants of
stocks taken from a 4-inch flat. The
compost contains about one-fourth ma-
nure, a good proportion of sand and
the balance clay soil, which is all we
have in this part of the country. They
are planted two inches apart each way.
Will you kindly tell me the trouble and
the remedy t The whole flat is spoiled.
We have the same trouble with our let-
tuce, which is the main crop in winter.
Do you think it is the result of the
larvae of the black flyt We have mil-
lions of them and have used carbon
bisulphide without success. Can you
suggest any remedy! G. F. F. C.
I would use a plant of ricinus, or
castor oil plant, in the center, and
make the balance of the bed cannas.
They are perpetual bloomers and the
foliage is always handsome. You could
get a batch of the tall flowering sorts
for the central part of the bed and run
a band of a dwarfer variety near the
edge. If desired you could plant a
border of coleus, or, if you prefer
some more tropical looking subject,
use Caladium edculentum. A block of
tall scarlet or yellow cannas, with a
band of the reverse color in front,
would make a good contrast, although
the tendency now is to have beds of
one solid color. I would not advise you
to have a mixed bed; it will not look
well. C. W.
I think your trouble may be due more
to allowing the plants to become too
crowded before transplanting than to

DOUBLE PBOFIT CBOPS.
If The Review has the Country Gen-
tleman on its exchange list I should like
to have the editor turn back to the issue
of May 16, in which Maurice Fuld has
an article on "Double Profit Crops."
It tells the farmer how he can secure
$10,000 an acre from gladioli, $1,000 an
acre from dahlias, etc. To those of us
in the vicinity of Coraopolis, who have
not had Mr. Fuld's wide experience,
this sounds almost as alluring as the
erstwhile tales of profits in ginseng.

UNIQUE IN HABIT OF BLOOM.
The article entitled ' ' A Showy Bor-
der Plant," in The Review of June 4,
with the picture of a border of liatris.
prompts me to write to j^ou in regard
to two varieties of liatris that are grow-
ing on my place. On a gravelly knoll
in my field are some plants of Liatris
spicata, the variety shown in The Re-
view; the other sort on my place is L.
pycnostachya. There is no striking dif-
ference between the two kinds, though
spicata forms its buds in knob-like
masses on the stalk, while pycnostachya
has them more nearly uniformly distrib-
uted. The flowers of the two are identi-
cal in color, which is purple. Both have
the habit, unique among spike flowers,
of beginning to bloom at the top, the
bloom advancing downward along the
stalk and dying in the same order, so
that what is at first a tuft of flowers
at the top becomes a slowly descending
ring. B. C. Auten.

FEBTILIZEBS FOB MUlM.
Kindly tell us what manure or fer-
tilizers to use in growing chrysanthe-
mums. We cannot obtain a supply of
barnyard manure near here, but can
get pulverized cattle or sheep manure,
as well as the artificial fertilizers. Are
these as good? Which ones should be
used, and in what quantities?
W. M. E. S.
If the mums have been planted in a
good sod loam the question of barnyard
manure is not of such paramount im-
portance, though it is understood that
the plants are always better for a rea-
sonable proportion of it; still, pulver-
ized cattle fertilizer will serve the same
purpose. We have always believed that
sheep manure steeped in water gives us
better results than when used as a top-
dressing. The expert mum grower uses
considerable chemical fertilizer in addi-
tion to nature's product and sulphate
of ammonia is possibly more largely
used than any other one chemical. In
previous years we have used consider-
able nitrate of soda, but prefer today
to get our nitrate in other forms. Ni-
trate of potash, combining as it does
both nitrogen and potash, is a valuable
fertilizer. A safe proportion to use of
any of these chemicals is one pound to
a 50-gallon barrel of water, dissolving
the chemical thoroughly before apply-
ing it to the plants. There are various
chemicals which are valuable in mum
growing on account of their large per-
centage of nitrogen, but which cannot
be used extensively owing to their cost.
Chemical fertilizers should not be
used until the plants are well estab-
lished in the pots or benches and then
once a week is enough to start with,
until the buds are set and we are getting
into September. The subject of feeding
mums is a comprehensive one and can-
not be dealt with fully in a reply of this
character. Neither can a grower, how-
ever skillful he may be, tell another
grower exactly how his plants should be
fed. as local conditions, soils, climate
and other considerations have more or
less bearing on the case.
Chas. H. Totty.
MOTH BALLS FOB WHITE ANTS.
Do you know whether moth balls
will be safe to use around the roots of
chrysanthemum plants to get rid of
white ants? M. F. C.
I know of no reason why moth balls
should be injurious, nor do I know
that they will be helpful. Still, it will
do no harm for you to try them. Many
valuable discoveries have been made
through accident and perhaps this is
a new way of eliminating ants on mum
plants. I understand they are quite
destructive in some sections. We have
not been bothered with them much in
this vicinity.
While on this subject of preventives,
why not try the housewives' remedy
for ants — spreading leaves of mint on
all the shelves? This puts an end to all
ants, both white and black, and they
never seem to bother afterwards.
C. H. Totty.
NEMATODES ON MUM CUTTINGS.
Under separate cover we are send-
ing you some decayed chrysanthemum
cuttings. We have lost seventy-five
per cent of our carnation and chrys-
'anthemum cuttings, due to animalcules,
which in some cases attack the bottom
of the cuttings and eat out the inside
and in others eat between the fibers
on the outside. In either case the cut-
ting eventually rots.
We have noted three kinds of ani-
malcules. The first is a translucent
worm, which when full grown meas-
ures three-quarters of an inch in
length and is of the thickness of a fine
thread. When exposed to the air it
dries up in about five minutes. The sec-
ond is also translucent and is about as
large as a small thrips and quite act-
ive. The legs are attached to the front
half of the body. The third looks like
the second with the rear half of its
body cut off. It is less active than
the second, has three pairs of legs and
one pair of antennas and looks as
though it might be the male form of
the second. This form seems to be
tougher than the first, standing longer
exposure to air.
The sand we use comes from a gully
which drains the soil we use in our
greenhouses, and if these animalcules
destroy cuttings, why will they not de-
stroy the roots of plants? We have
seen many of our rose plants, espe-
cially carried-over plants, lose their
leaves, then put forth a crop of small,
sickly looking leaves, which, in turn,
would dry up, and the plants die.
Can you tell us what these animal-
cules are and suggest a remedy?
M. F. C.
The tiny insects referred to are evi-
dently nematodes. Members of this
family cause eelworm in roses and
many other plants. It is no wonder
that th^ are present in the propagat-
ing bench when the same sand has been
used continuously the whole season.
The proper way to keep propagating
sand perfectly good is to sterilize it
after every crop of cuttings. This we
accomplish by dumping the sand into a
box nine feet long and two feet high,
and then turning on live steam until
the sand is cooked through. After one
batch of plants has been grown in this
sand, repeat the same method of cook-
ing the sand before the next lot of
cuttings is planted. You evidently had
eelworm in your roses, by the descrip-
tion of the plants. Some growers rec-
ommend lime being applied to the soil
to get rid of eel worms; others are just
as emphatic that eelworms cannot flour-
ish if the soil is flooded. One thing is
sure; if the soil is treated properly by
sterilization eelworms cannot exist, or
any other of the numerous pests or
diseases that infest the plants.
C. H. Totty.
STEM BOT ON FIELD PLANTS.
Kindly advise me what to do. My
carnation plants out in the field have
a bad attack of wet stem-rot. I read
F. P. Adams' article on "Carnations in
the South," in The Review of May 21,
and notice that he advises the use of a
carbonate of copper solution. Do you
think that by spraying my plants with
this solution I could stop the rot? My
location is southeastern Wisconsin.
B. F. C.
A bad case of stem-rot in the carna-
tion field is a serious proposition and I
can give you no positive cure for it.
The greatest difficulty you will probably
encounter will be the uncertainty of the
weather conditions. Just about the time
you think you are getting things under
control there may come a spell of rainy
weather that will upset all your calcu-
lations and undo all your work. It does
not do to dwell upon this phase of the
question, however. The only way is to
go ahead with your preventive measures
and trust to luck as regards the weather.
A field of carnations is well worth the
effort to save them.
The carbonate of copper solution is
a splendid article and so is the Bor-
deaux mixture. Instead of just spray-
ing it over the plants as you would in
the greenhouses, I would suggest that
14
The Florists' Review

you stick the nozzle right into the heart
of the plant, in order to get the material
onto the stem and the soil immediately
around the plant. That is where the
attack is made and unless you o«n
reach that portion with the solution,
there will be little use in applying it.
Go over the field every day, pulling
up the affected plants and dusting the
soil heavily with hydrated lime where-
ever you have pulled up a plant. Carry
the dead plants off the field and burn
them.
I would further suggest that you pre-
pare to house your plants early. After
you get the stem-rot checked, with
every day's delay you will be taking a
chance with the weather. As already
stated, a heavy rain followed by a hot
spell might undo all the work you have
done. A. F. J. B.
THBIPS ON CABNATIONS.
A number of our carnations turn out
wilted at the edges, and we should
like to know the cause. They seem
to turn dry in the buds as soon as the
color shows and are slow in opening,
some not opening at all. We should
like to know what causes this and how
to remedy it. C. B,
Your carnations are no doubt trou-
bled with that most common green-
house pest called thrips. It affects the
buds in just the manner you describe.
In our latitude the carnation season is
beginning to draw to a close and we
would not think of doing anything
else with a badly infested bed of carna-
tions but throw it out. In your north-
ern climate the carnations ought to be
good for a month or two yet, and it
might pay ^ou to try to get the pests
under control. Get some of one of the
nicotine preparations and spray every
other day for about two weeks. Then
keep it up twice each week until the
end of the season. You might find it
advisable to reduce the number of ap-
plications somewhat, in case you find
the pests less tenacious than I suspect.
Next season start in spraying once each
week right from the start. You will
find it a good policy to prevent their
getting a start. A. F. J. Baur.
BENCHING CUTTINGS.
How would it be to bench good,
strong carnation cuttings directly from
sand and pots and not plant them out-
doors at all? D. G.
Many growers plant part of their
carnations into the benches from pots,
and with good success. I would not ad-
vise planting from the cutting bench,
because the cuttings would need to be
shaded a few days and that would be
a big task. To insure success, however,
proper preparations must be made. The
plants are either planted into the
benches from the small pots before
planting in the field is commenced or
they are shifted into larger pots and
benched according to the size of the
pots in which they are growing. Per-
haps a better way to put it would be
to say that they are shifted into dif-
ferent sizes of pots according to when
they are to be benched. If they are to
be benched about the middle of May,
right after the field planting is done,
3-inch pots are large enough, but if
the benching will not be done until
June or later, 4-inch or even 5-inch
pots are the proper size. Do not make
the mistake we have seen made a time
or two, of thinking that late propa-
gated stock will do for inside growing
and that it will catch up with the
earlier outside planted stock. It in-
variably results in a scant, or tardy
winter crop. A. F. J. Baur.
GERMINATING CABNATION SEED.
Please advise me how to handle car;
nation seed to get the best results. I
have tried to grow carnations from
seed, but they do not come up. Please
tell me how to gather the seed and
how to plant it in order to get the best
seedling carnations. C. P.
There is no great trick about ger-
minating carnation seed; in fact, we
consider it one of the easiest seeds to
handle. Judging from your letter, I
take it that you have succeeded in ma-
turing the seed, and I will not go into
the process of hybridizing, etc. Most
hybridizers do their crossing early
enough to get the seed ripe in time
to sow it by March or early in April.
That gives them time enough to get
the young plants nicely established by
planting out time. They . are then
planted in the field under labels indi-
cating the cross, etc., so that when
they bloom the parentage will be
known. Late in August or in Septem-
ber the plants will throw their first
bloom, at which time the promising
ones are marked and the inferior ones
pulled up and thrown away. Wh^n a
good proportion have bloomed, or be-
fore hard frosts have checked the
plants, the good ones are transferred to
the greenhouse benches, where they are
allowed to bloom again and the un-
worthy ones culled out. Those which
are considered worthy of further trial
are perpetuated by propagating in the
same way as the standard varieties.
Seed that is matured too late to han-
dle as suggested above is sometimes
handled in the following way; some
growers handle all their seedlings this
way: Pot off the young seedlings and
when they are established in the small
pots, shift them into 4-inch or 5-inch
pots instead of planting in the field.
Keep them either in the greenhouse or
out in the frames. They will probably
bloom a little later than those planted
in the field, but you will be able to
tell more about them from the first
bloom. For that reason we prefer the
latter method. "When a promising one
blooms, it can be either planted in
the bench or allowed to remain in the
pot, providing the pot is large enough
to properly nourish the plant.
When sowing the seed, use a sandy
loam. Sow the seeds thinly and cover
with finely sifted soil or sand a scant
eighth of an inch. Water just enough
to keep the soil fairly damp. Excessive
watering will cause damping off.

NEW METHODS IN GERMANY.
Cyclamen 'and Begonia Culture.
In growing cyclamen from the time
they are potted, the German commer-
cial establishments have hitherto de-
pended on hotbeds well packed with
horse manure to furnish bottom heat.
The introduction of the automobile in
place of horses in most of the large
establishments has, however, made it
exceedingly difficult of late to obtain
manure in the large quantities needed.
The necessity of obtaining the moist
bottom heat in some other manner has
led to experiments by the growers, and
as a result of his trials in this line,
Ferdinand Fischer, of Wiesbaden-Au-
kamm, found a most successful method
in the following:
On each of the two side benches in
several new, well ventilated houses,
built for the purpose, were placed a
2-inch layer of coarse peat and imme-
diately over this five 1-inch heating
pipes, ten inches apart. These were cov-
ered to a depth of two inches with fine
peat. To secure the infection of this
peat with manure bacteria, a light layer
of not too fresh cow manure was spread
between the two layers of peat. To sup-
ply carbonic acid gas, which plays an
important part in the development of

plants, some carbonate of lime was
mixed in the top layer of peat. This
developed a moderate but steady supply
of gas for the plants.
Growth Bapid and Bobust.
The atmosphere in these houses is,
even at a high day temperature, of a
peculiar freshness, and the growth of
the cyclamen is remarkably more rapid
and robust than that of plants in Mr,
Fischer's other houses, which are not
equipped in this manner and are sim-
ply heated. The photograph, reproduced
herewith, showing the house of potted
cyclamen was taken May 20 and gives
a view of plants that were potted at the
end of April and the beginning of May
as seedlings with from three to six leaf-
lets. Five pots of cyclamen in bloom
at this establishment show, in another
illustration, the quality of plants and
size of flowers obtained by this method.
Propagation of Begonias.
These same benches have been used
for the propagation of Begonia Gloire
de Lorraine and its relatives, also with
exceedingly good results. Leaves and
cuttings, when placed in the peat bed,
grow as well as any other softwood
cutting. The peat, when properly wa-
tered, holds the moisture for a week.
This is an important point, because
Gloire de Lorraine will not bear to
have water on its leaves. Under other
methods of propagation it frequently
happens that leaves root, but fail to de-
velop leaflets. Begonia cuttings are
quite sensitive to external influence; a
drying or parching atmosphere is a^
detrimental to them as a chilly, moist
one. One of the illustrations shows the
mode of propagation in Ferdinand
Fischer's houses, the benches on which
are the peat-packed pipes and one of the
flats with bottoms of wire-netting, used
by Mr. Fischer with the best results.

[Editorial In Chicago Hecord-Herald.]
The country-in-the-city movement has
reached our loop. An appeal for
"Flower Boxes Downtown" is made by
Chicago Commerce for June, and it is
an appeal which should have an imme-
diate and general response.
Already a considerable number of
banks, department stores, hotels and
other establishments have introduced
that touch of nature and color that
pleasantly reminds one of the green,
lovely fields and meadows and recon-
ciles one to the city even in the sum-
mer. Suspended flower pots and flower
boxes are the principal means of orna-
mentation, and it is certain that three-
fourths or more of the loop windows
will accommodate flower boxes.
Why not make the loop "a hanging
garden" this summer? Any owner or
tenant of a loop building who needs ex-
pert advice on the subject can com-
Last week was no exception to the
rule that has prevailed since Memorial
day. Midsummer values and even lower
prices than obtain in the hottest days
of the season have been everywhere
manifest, until the wholesale cut flower
market has been absolutely funereal.
The latter days of the week were espe-
cially humid and depressing and the
temperature the highest ever known in
June. The effect was manifest in the
lowered condition of the rose and car-
nation shipments especially, and the
market was unable to digest them. There
is no change in quotations as the week
opens from those of last week. Lighter
arrivals are anticipated and a hardening
tendency is consequently possible.
Prices for tea roses range from 25
cents per hundred to $3, for the se-
lects. Beauties hold at $10 to $12 per
hundred for the best of them. Outdoor
roses are abundant. There are plenty
of carnations, but most of them are
asleep. One lot of 11,000 sold for $11
on Saturday. The market continues to
be flooded with peonies. Vast quanti-
ties are unsalable. There are few of

those of any other season. In fact,
comparison with values of a year ago
is exceedingly discouraging to growers.
But the present week will see the end
of large arrivals, and a good number
are already in cold storage.
On orchids .$10 to $25 per hundred
are the quotations. Quality is superb,
never better, and yet values are less
than half what they should be. Even
the June weddings and decorations seem
to have lost their influence. Lilies are
still overabundant and in quantity the
best figure obtainable has been $15 per
thousand. Valley sells at double these
quotations, in small and selected quan-
tities, and will while the brides' bou-
quets continue the demand.
Callas, iris and gladioli are abun-
dant, and of sweet peas, daisies, coreop-
sis, feverfew and the other outdoor
stock there is neither limit nor sale, and
it is hard indeed to realize for them
enough to pay the shipping charges.
Various Notes,
The early closing movement is start-
ing now. Several houses will close next
Sunday and continue the good work
until September. Some of the leading
wholesalers hope the plan may be made
permanent.

The Market,
The weather last week was quite
warm and its effect on cut flowers
was perceptible. Business was good,
for with weddings, graduations, dances
and funeral work, all hands have been
kept busy. Killarney roses in both
colors are getting smaller. Killarney
Queen is good. Sunburst is excellent,
but the supply is limited. Mrs. Taft is
a little better in color than it has been,
but the flowers are small. Mrs. Aaron
Ward is poor and short of stem. Beau-
ties are plentiful and can be had in
all grades. Short-stemmed Beauties are
cheap. Richmond and Milady are rather
poor. All roses, in fact, show the
effects of the warm weather, for they
are fully opened in a few hours when
out of the refrigerator. There are some
excellent My Marylands in the market
just now. Peonies are a drug on the
market and are sold at astonishingly
low prices. Festiva maxima continues
to be a great favorite this summer.
Gladioli are arriving from the south,
but they are only fair and are cut in
tight bud. There is not much demand
for them as yet. Baby gladioli still
are selling. Carnations are overabun-
dant and cheap. They are getting
smaller and poorer in quality. Easter
lilies are good and the supply is strong,
with the demand hardly equal. Valley
is fair. Cattleyas are in demanjl and
bringing excellent prices. Marguerites,
foxgloves, swainsonas, yellow daisies,
cornflowers, sweet peas, pyrethrum and
irises swell the list of the summer
flowers.
All florists are getting their share of
work for commencements and weddings.
Nearly all the outdoor work has been
attended to and soon there will be only
the regular summer trade to cope with
and vacation days will be at hand.

The Southwestern Market,
The market last week was in pretty^
much the same condition as when last
reported — plenty of stock, but of poor
quality. The retailers had a fairly good
week, with school commencements, wed-
dings and funeral work. This about
ends the season for wedding and school
work, as society has closed its doors and
left town for the summer vacation, so
that the trade can from now on depend
only on funeral work and a few late
weddings. In looking over the stock at
the different wholesale houses, I found
that all first quality stock was scarce,
especially in roses, carnations and sweet
peas. Extra good quality gladioli, cape
jasmines and Easter lilies are in demand
and the market affords plenty of these.
Outdoor stock is coming in, but shows
poor quality from the need of good
rains. The country is dry and for the
last two months only light showers have
fallen.
Now that the' season is at an end,
the wholesalers as well as the retailers
will start cleaning up and making im-
provements for the Fall business.
Ferns, which have been scarce the
last few weeks, are again easy, and
all the markets had a good supply of
fancy and dagger ferns all last week
at $2.50 per thousand. Asparagus sells
better than any other green, with
smilax next in order. In this the mar-
ket is well supplied.
Club Meeting,
The twenty-eighth anniversary meet-
ing of the Florists' Club took place
June 11. Owing to the extreme heat,
the meeting was poorly attended. In
the absence of President Pilcher and
Vice-president Jaenicke, the members
called upon Ex-president R. .1. Windier
to preside over the meeting. After
cleaning up all the opening routine busi-
ness, the chair called upon all commit-
tees to report. The banquet committee
reported everything in readiness for the
club's anniversary banquet, to be held
next week at the Jefferson hotel. The
trustees were given full power to act
in regard to the club's picnic, to be
held next month, in order to have all
arrangements completed by the next
meeting. State Vice-president Windier,
of the S. A. F., made a report on the
work he was doing for the national so-
ciety and read a letter from the Chicago
Florists' Club, asking him to trv to ar-
range to have his party travel to Boston
on the president's special with the Chi-
cago Florists' Club. As the transporta-
tion is all in his hands, no doubt ar-
rangements will be made to go with the
Chicago party.
The matter of Sunday closing by the
retail florists was brought up for dis-
cussion, in which Messrs. Ammann, San-
ders, Fillmore, Windier, Geddis, Ogle
and Wells took great interest, and after
a lengthy discussion, it was decided on
motion that the club was much in favor
of this movement and that all members
of the club be urged to sign their names
to the petition when presented.
The rest of the afternoon was spent
in discussing the effect which the long
dry spell will have on outdoor stock.

Creve Cceur, June 30. All members,
with their families and friends, are ex-
pected to attend and spend a pleasant
day.
Ernest Strehle was acting park com-
missioner last week in the absence of
Park Commissioner Davis, who was in
Kansas City, Mo., attending the golf
matches.
The members of the club who have
neglected to send in their acceptances
to the twenty-eighth anniversary ban-
quet should do so at once, as it takes
place June 24 at 7:30 p. m. in the Floral
room of the Jefferson hotel. Arrange-
ments are all complete foi" this event.
Messrs. Windier, Ossick and Connon,
trustees of the Florists' Club, say the
picnic will again be held at Bomona
park, July 23. Anyone wishing to do-
nate a special prize should notify one
of these gentlemen at once. Sugges-
tions for any new feature to make the
day interesting are always welcome.
Ludwig Zimmer, the Biddle market
florist, says that he will not make his
ususal trip to Germany this year and
that his vacation days will be spent on
this side of the big pond.
Fred Ammann's talk on the Sunday
closing question was interesting. He
said that from the talk of some of tne
members on this question, the drawback
was the possibility of the other fellow
not closing. Why .should each one worry
about the other fellow? If each one
closes his own place, the other fellow
will soon follow. He urged all present
to sign the petition to close their shops
on Sundays.
Starting June 15, retailers will have
to do their buying before 5 p. m. on
week-days and before noon on Satur-
days and Sundays, as all the five whole-
sale markets will be closed after these
hours until September 15.
Henry Emunds, of Belleville, says he
has had a great sale of his new Canna
Queen Helen so far this season. Mr.
Emunds kept close to home last week,
with all his teeth drawn, and only made
daily visits to the dentist.
Pierre Schnider, manager of the range
of the Oakland Floral Co., at Kirk-
wood, had another successful season in
carnations and sweet peas. This stock
is always much looked for in this mar-
ket. Some extensive improvements are
contemplated for this establishment this
summer.
Mr. Stork paid his first visit at the
home of Oliver K. Sanders recently and
left a fine baby girl. Grandpa Sanders
and Oliver were all smiles when telling
of the visit.
Our nurserymen will suffer a great
deal this season. The long continued
dry weather has killed off a great deal
of young nursery stock and if we do
not have a good soaking rain soon, the
loss will run into several thousand
dollars.
A big heading in the daily papers
last week, "No flowers at school exer-
cises," no doubt kept many prospective
buyers of flowers for school graduates
from sending them and proved an in-
justice to florists, who pay heavy school
taxes.

Matthew Schoenenberger, of Belleville,

ker, of St. Charles, and John Connon,
of Webster, spent June 11 in this city
and attended the club meeting in the
afternoon.
The St. Louis Seed Co. gave its em-
ployees an outing June 14. A special
car provided by the company took the
entire force and the heads of the com-
pany to Waterloo, 111. The weather
was right for an event of this kind and
a pleasant day was spent. Vice-presi-
dent August Hummert had charge of
the outing. Games of all kinds, with
prizes, took place in the afternoon. The
following were the prize-winners:
Ladies' egg race. Miss Bremer; men's
race, S. Pan tier; time walking match,
T. Ripple; young ladies' race, Ida
Crain; married ladies' race, Mrs. Nix-
son; boys' race, F. Henselmeyer and F.
Hummjeri; men 's shot-put, H. Roth;
ladies' ball throwing, Mrs. Blase; hop,
step and jump, S. Pantler; boys' race,
Jeff Pantler. The tug of war was won
by a team composed of Messrs. Blase,
Pantler, Meier, Nixen, Roth and Hen-
selmeyer. A ball game between the
salesmen and the shipping department
followed, which was won by the sales-
nj^n by a score of 6 to 4. The outing
was a grand success and will be made
an annual affair. J. J. B.

Stock in general is still in heavy sup-
ply, although it is expected that there
will be a decrease shortly. In spite of
the large supply, however, it is difficult
to take care of all orders satisfactorily,
as the quality of the stock has not been
as good as it should be, owing to the
extremely hot weather that has pre-
vailed for some days. Carnations are
'still coming in heavily; their quality
is steadily improving and the stock is
being cleaned up fairly well, although
wholesalers have a large supply on hand
continually. Roses are not as plentiful
as they have been for the last week or
so, and as the demand is heavier and
the quality excellent, they are cleaning
up well.
Peonies, grown in this vicinity, are
coming in more heavily all the time,
despite the storm which swept this lo-
cality May 31 and did great damage
to this crop. The peonies are extra fine
and have a ready sale. Sweet peas are
still in demand and the stock received
is good. There are plenty of them to go
around, but no great surplus, and prices
are holding up pretty well for this
time of year. There is an abundance of
lilies of fine quality. The cut is being
moved fairly well considering the large
supply. Gladioli have not as yet come
into the market to any great extent,
but those that arrive are good. Beauties
are received in limited quantities and
are fine for this time of year.

TOLEDO, O.
The Market.
There has been a terrific glut of all
kinds of cut flowers during the last
week, due to the great heat. Retailers
have had no difficulty in buying all the
flowers they could use on practically
their own terms. With this advantage,
they reaped a harvest, because last week
was an exceedingly busy week. Several
prominent men died, funeral work was
abundant, social functions were numer-
ous, commencements and graduations
created a large call for cut flowers and
bouquets, and June weddings have been
frequent. June is responding nobly in
a business way, and retailers here are
quite cheerful these days. Friday a
cool wave arrived, which helped consid-
erably in checking the supply. The
chances are that the rest of this month
will see the demand just about keeping
up with the supply. Carnations have
not been good of late, and Qven the old,
reliable sweet peas are shorter-stemmed
than usual. Roses are plentiful and of
fair quality. Peonies have not been
as high-grade this season as is custom-
ary, but this has been laid to the hot
weather. Sweet williams are now ar-
riving in large quantities. Gladioli are
fine.
Club Meeting.
The last meeting of the Florists' Club
was held Tuesday evening, June 9, at
the home of George Bayer, on Fulton
street. It was one of the best meetings
held recently, and Mr. Bayer sustained
his reputation for hospitality, proving
himself a royal entertainer. A large
number of members were in attendance.
The most important step taken was the
launching of a movement to close all
florists' shops at noon Sundays and
eventually, when the public has been
educated to this step, to close all day.
Toledo has been in the throes of an
early closing campaign for some time.
Retail storekeepers are agitating early
closing Saturday nights, and grocers and
butchers are fighting to have their
places closed all day Sundays. The
employing florists decided by an over-
whelming majority to jump into the
band wagon of their own free will. The
publicity man of the club was instructed
to see all the florists and urge them to
join in this beneficent movement to
give employees and themselves a well-

deserved rest on Sundays. I'lacards
will be placed in all windows announc-
ing this fact, a cooperative advertise-
ment will be placed in all the daily
papers, asking the public to support the
cause by ordering their flowers earlier
in the day, and every possible step will
be taken to make a success of it. Sev-
eral florists have been closing at noon;
one has announced his intention of clos-
ing all day, while others stated that
they would start the following Sunday.
Some are opposing the movem.ent on
the ground of the peculiar nature of
the florists' business, which, they claim,
makes it impossible to close, as, for
instance, in case there is a large funeral
on Monday. However, it is not the in-
tention of the Florists' Club to make an
arbitrary rule that cannot be modified
by the use of a little common sense. All
orders that are taken in the morning are
to be taken care of, no matter how nu-
merous, but the store should not be
open for trade after 12 o'clock. Once
people are acquainted with this fact,
there will not be so many last-minute
flower buyers. At any rate, the irre-
sistible trend of the times is for better
conditions and saner methods of labor
in all occupations. Whether one or an-
other opposes the tide for a time or not,
still the time will come when everybody
will close. Once public opinion is
aroused, those who remain open will lose
more trade than they will gain.

llorists here look for a good business
this week, as the Modern Woodmen of
America are having their convention
here. Thousands of visitors are in the
city, which is gaily decorated for the
occasion. Many florists have decorated
their shops and placed welcoming pen*
nants in their stores. It pays to connect
your business with affairs of this kind.
Max Spanner is wearing a happy
smile these days. The reason is that
he reaped a harvest last week during
the annual national convention of the
International Order of B'nai Brith.
About a thousand members from all
parts of this country were present. Mr.
Spanner has been an active member of
the local lodge and, having been placed
on the entertainment and decoration
committees for the convention, he natu-
rally secured all the flower orders. These
included 150 corsage bouquets for the
visiting ladies, decorations at the Hotel
Secor, Progress Club and Woman's
building, all of which he took care of
in his customary able manner, to the
satisfaction of all concerned. When
the convention finally adjourned, Mr.
Spanner was so played out from con-
stant work that he could hardly keep
his head up. He put a beautiful decora-
tion in his display windows for this
week's convention of the Woodmen.
Louis Bessler, employed by Emil
Kuhnke, died last week as the result of
injuries received from an interurban car
that passes back of Mr. Kuhnke 's place.
Mr. Bessler was one of Mr. Kuhnke 's
most valued employees.
Elmer Welling, the new bookkeeper
for Schramm Bros., had a bad accident
last week, cutting his wrist severely on
a piece of glass. The sight of the blood
flowing profusely unnerved him and he
fainted away. However, he was game
enough to be back on the job the next
day with a bandaged wrist.
The annual picnic of the Toledo Flo-
rists' Club will be held in the early
part of July, and judging from the en-
thusiasm already rampant, is going to
be the banner get-together event of the
year. It will probably be held at Ot-
tawa park.
The writer had a short chat with Mr.
Feniger to get his views on Sunday
closing. He says he is in favor of it
and will close if the rest do. Mr. Feni-
ger has a beautiful flower shop on
Adams street, magnificently furnished
and decorated throughout. Mr, Feniger
is one florist who believes in being inde-

The Market.
The condition of the market is about
the same as previously reported, with
respect to quantity and price, but the
quality of the roses and carnations is
not so good, due to the intense heat of
last week. Sweet peas are just as
plentiful and as good, with prices about
the same. Japanese iris made its ap-
pearance and is moving in small quan-
tities at $4 and $5 per hundred. Gladioli
are to be had in excellent shape. There
was a little better demand for snap-
dragon last week, but even at that this
flower is practically standing still as
regards sales. Peonies are done, so far
as this market is concerned, and orders
either are filled from cold storage or
turned over to florists in other ^cities.
The business of last week was mostly
brought about by commencements and
weddings. These affairs are using up
the really good stock; seconds and lower
quality stock hang fire and usually
end up on the scrap pile. This condi-
tion of affairs is causing the growers to
pay even more attention to their pro-
duction, for it is the man who has really
got the goods who is getting what little^
business there is.
Various Notes.
William Marche & Co., Fourteenth
and H streets, northwest, utilized June
14 to lay a new cement flooring, green
in color, which adds to the attractive-
ness of the store.
Those of the florists who accompanied
the members of Kallipolis Grotto to
Richmond to attend the convention of
the Mystic Order of the Enchanted
Realm, the playground of blue lodge
Masonry, were shown the true southern
hospitality. Among those who made
the trip were Edward S. Schmid, who
was elevated to the office of grand ora-
tor; George C. Shaffer, W. W. Kimmel,
O. A. C. Oehmler and Fred H. Kramer.
The latter was one of the captains of
the Minute Men who headed the big
procession. Following the close of the
convention many of the prophets visited
Washington and several hundred were
taken to the White House by William
F. Gude, by whom they were presented
to President Wilson.
Washington last week was visited by
a number of severe storms and dur-
ing one of these lightning struck the
fuel shed on the premises of J. R.
Freeman, at Georgia avenue and Dahlia
street, and started a fire which caused
some damage.
Plans are being perfected for a large
flower show during November. Fred H.
Kramer is chairman. The project is
being received with no little favor and
it is believed that this show will ex-
ceed all previous efforts. In all prob-
ability it will be staged in the Old
The Market.
School commencements, June wed-
dings and funeral orders have been the
chief factors in business during the last
two weeks. While we are not over-
rushed with business, there has been
enough doing to keep the Dayton florists
from getting discouraged. The heat has
been intense throughout the month, and
consequently stock is commencing to
diminish in size and lose its color. Red
carnations were in great demand last
week, as they were used by the high
school graduates. There is still some
call for bedding plants, but as the de-
mand previous to Memorial day was so
brisk, the florist finds great difficulty in
satisfying the requirements of his cus-
tomers. The supply of Easter lilies is
good and stock is fine, while the demand
for them last week was exceptionally
good, due to the fact that there were a
number of large funerals in the city.
Various Notes.
A special meeting of the Dayton Flo-
rists' Club was called June 9, at the
home of George Bartholomew, for the
purpose of making arrangements for the
funeral of Mrs. Elizabeth Young, whose
death is recorded in this week's obitu-
ary column. June 10 the members of
the club met at the store of the Heiss
Co. and, assisted by Forrest Mittman,
made a handsome blanket of lilies, or-
chids, roses and sweet peas for Mrs.
Young's casket, after which they went
to the Young home in a body.
Clifford Bittner, of the Miami Floral
Co., was on the sick list all of last
week, tfn account of being overcome
by the intense heat in the greenhouses.
Frank Young, of Vicksburg, Miss.,
who was called here on account of the
death of his mother, returned home
June 13.
Henry Ehrhardt, of Sidney, O., called
on some of his Dayton friends last
week.
Miss Elsie Bartholomew returned June
13 from a two weeks' visit with friends
in Terre Haute and Indianapolis, Ind.
D. Rusconi and son, of Cincinnati, O.,
and Mr. Kennedy, representative of J.
M. McCullough 's Sons Co., of Cincinnati,
O., were Dayton visitors last week.
The Miami Floral Co. is replanting
the entire rose section this season, and
already has the work about completed.
They have also started their carnation
planting.
Mrs. Stafford, mother of Mrs. W. J.
Engle, who was stricken with paralysis
two weeks ago, is reported to be still in
a serious condition. R. A. L.
KANSAS CITY.
The Market.
The market has been comparatively
steady. All the good stock sells fast
and at a fair price, while the lower
grade is plentiful and some of it goes
to waste. Carnations grown in this
vicinity are small, on account of the
hot, dry weather in May, and nearly
every grower dumped them last week.
Carnations have been exceptionally soft
and the retailers will not use them for
out-of-town orders. Roses are still hold-

ing up well; the bloOms are larger than
last year at this time and they are in
fair condition. Gladioli are plentiful;
it is estimated that there will be twice
as many this year as last.
Damage by Storm.
A hail storm visited this city and
vicinity June 11, doing a great deal of
damage in the suburbs and agricultural
districts. A 40-mile gale went through
the northern part of Kansas City and
Independence. The hailstones varied
from the size of a pea to as large as an
egg and did a great deal of damage in
the business section of the town.
E. H. Frandsen & Co. suffered a heavy
loss. The hail storm broke all the glass
on his place and also destroyed prac-
tically all of his stock. The trade sym-
pathizes with him, for he has had a
great deal of misfortune since he has
been at his present place.
B. S. Brown & Son's loss was about
1,500 square feet of glass. They were
just on the edge of the storm, getting
only a little of the large hail.
B. A. Bunyar's place was a total
wreck; there were only a few lights of
glass left, but, fortunately, he did not
have any stock left for the falling glass
to hurt.
The S. Bryson Ayres Co. was not
troubled by any of the hail, but the
damage in the field from the wind was
heavy, including the loss of all of his
gladioli and sweet peas.
Various Notes. ^
T. J. Noll & Co. report that many
of the cut flowers coming to their place
are soft and will not ship well.
Adolph D. Mohr has a fine lot of
seedling ferns in flats, for dishes. He
is making a specialty of this work.
Samuel Murray reports that business
is good and that the orders for gradua-
ting exercises this year were about the
same as last year, but business would
have been better if the pupils had been
allowed to carry more than one flower.
This is the first year when the pupils
were limited in the quantity of flowers.
The W. L. Eock Flower Co. has its
bench mums going in good shape. The
firm also has a fine lot of pot mums.
Work has been begun in cleaning out
the carnation houses and getting them
ready for replanting.
The Geo. M. Kellogg Flower & Plant
Co. reports that there is a good market
for this month in decorations. Funeral
work has been heavy. W. J. B.
Norfolk, Neb. — The greenhouses of L.
Buckendorf, the first ones erected here,
will be razed soon and a Chicago green-
house builder will put up two large
houses to replace the old ones.
Berlin, Conn. — A. A. Weldon left June
6 for Bondsville, Mass., where he will
erect a large greenhouse. Mr. Weldon
has spent in Berlin seventeen of the
fifty years he has been in this business.
He will be home occasionally during the
summer, but will spend most of his
time at Bondsville.
Aberdeen, S. D. — Miss Beth Youre-
man and Mrs. Minnidelle Kronenberger
have purchased the R. Strohmeier flower
store on Main street and will continue
the business in the same location. They
will change the name to the Strohmeier
Florist Shop. Miss Youreman has been
in charge of the Strohmeier storp for
several years. Mr. Strohmeier has not
determined on his future course.
OBITUARY
Charles H. Sieck.
Charles H. Sieck, proprietor of
Charles E. Smith & Co., of Baltimore,
Md., died June 10 at his residence, 216
Warren avenue, after a short illness.
He was 49 years of age. He was for-
merly employed by Charles E. Smith,
but afterward took over the business,
continuing it under the old name. He
was a member of the Gardeners' and
Florists ' .Club of Baltimore. The inter-
ment was at Cedar Hill cemetery, June
13. The funeral was largely attended
and many handsome floral emblems were
in evidence. He is survived by his
wife, W. F. E.
Mrs. Elizabeth Young.
The death of Mrs. Elizabeth Young,
aged 70 years, a well known florist of
Dayton, O., who assisted her husband in
business at 37 East Fifth street, oc-
curred June 8 at her residence, 105 Holt
street. She was stricken .with paraly-
sis in November, 1912, and has been in
■f)oor health ever since.
Mrs. Young was born in Earls Barton,
London, England, February 27, 1844,
and came to this country with her par-
ents when she was 6 years old. Novem-
ber 12, 1868, she was united in mar-
riage to John F. Young. After their
marriage they started in the florists'
business in Dayton, at that time having
only a small greenhouse. Ten years
later they opened a store in town and
have been at the present location, at
.37 East Fifth street, for the last twenty
years. Mrs. Young was prominent in
lodge circles, being a member of the
Pythian Sisters, the Ladies of Macca-
bees and the auxiliary of the Ancient
Order of United Workmen. She served
as state officer in the last named organi-
zation.
Besides her husband, she is survived.,
by four sons, C. F. Young, George H.,
and Harry, of Dayton, and Frank, of
Vicksburg, Miss., and two daughters,
Mrs, David Pickerel, of Dayton, and
Miss Katherine Young, who has taken
her mother's place at the store. Six-
teen grandchildren also survive her.
Funeral services were held Thursday
aft&rnoon, June 11, at the residence and
burial was in Woodland cemetery.

Ogden, Utah.— The Ogden Wholesale
Florists, of which John F. Dumke, Jr.,
is manager, have taken over the green-
houses of R. W. Altman and will do a
wholesale business.
Louisville, Ky. — While excavating for
a reservoir on the tract of land of F.
Walker & Co. on the Preston street road,
outside the city, H. G. Walker June 5
discovered a limestone cave, in which
there was found to be an abundant sup-
ply of good water.
Troy, N. Y.— The range of John Pick-
ering's Sons is being enlarged and a 150
horse-power return flue steam boiler is
being installed to take care of the en-
tire 40,000 feet of glass. The boiler
room is being enlarged to accommodate
another boiler of the same size. R, J.
Pickering says the range will be de-
voted to roses, carnations, chrysanthe-
mums and greens for wholesale. Some
glass will be given to growing young
stock of the above kinds for home use
and for the trade.
Convention City Hotels
|HE hotel committee for the Boston convention has sent out a circular
letter containing the list of hotels which is here appended, with prices
and other particulars. The committee has made comprehensive arrange-
ments and in most cases can hold reservations until August 15. It
will be best to write direct to the hotel for reservations, but the
committee suggests that intending visitors send duplicate announce-
ments to the office of the general secretary, 120 Boylston street, Boston,
Room 702, as a record, as it is the desire to help members in every way. Besides
the hotels below, there are a number of other excellent family Jiotels in the
vicinity of the garden and hall and innumerable first-class furnished rooming
houses and reasonably priced restaurants.
P<-ople intending to stay at Back Bay hotels, the Somerset, Nottingham,
Thorndike, Westminster, Lenox, Victoria, Canterbury, Hemingway, Vendome or
Carleton, or to look for furnished rooms, should leave trains via N. Y., N. H. & H.
R. R. and Boston & Albany R, B, at the Back Bay stations of the roads, all
others at the South Station terminal, Patrick Welch, 226 Devonshire street
Boston, is chairman of the hotel committee.
The Copley Plaza hotel, in Copley Square, has been chosen as official head-
quarters of the convention. It is one block from the Back Bay and Huntington
avenue railroad stations. To reach this hotel, leave the train at the Back Bay
station. Check your baggage to the Back Bay and Huntington avenue stations,
as it will be transferred to and from the hotel without charge.

Besults bring advertising.
The Review brings results.
Use business stationery, always.
Stem-rot again is appearing among
the asters. Has anyone found a reliable
remedy ?
Not a few sulbscribers save themselves
the bother of annual renewari)y sending
The Review $2, |3, or sometimes $5, in-
stead of the dollar-bill that insures fifty-
two visits of the paper.
Those who have surpluses of spring
stock should not forget that this is a big
country and that somewhere someone
probably is short of just that stock.
Don't let surpluses go to waste — offer
them at once in the classified columns of
The Review.
Trade advertising is too much bare
price list. A little description of the
quality of the stock, or the uses that can
be made of it, would help nine out of
ten of the ads one florist prints for the
perusal of another. But, after all, the
most important thing is for the stock to
turn out good value for the money.
One of the questions frequently asked
of The Review concerns the equitable
division of the profits of a greenhouse
business where one partner supplies the
capital and the other the experience.
Tradition makes it appear that in such
a case the positions of the partners re-
verse in the course of a little time, yet
it is not always so and it appears that
a constantly increasing number of
places are being run successfully on
shares.
System, especially in the oflBce part of
the business, is something many green-
house men know too little about. Cor-
respondence frequently is neglected,
orders sometimes are treated as some-
thing to be filled when convenient, bills
lie where they fall and no books are kept.
Those who are on their way to the front
are as careful of all business detail as
they are of cultural requirements. Per-
manent financial success usually calls for
as close attention to the office as to the
growing end.
STEM-BOT ON ASTESS.
I am sending some aster plants under
separate cover, hoping that you can
help me out with them. As you will
see, they start to rot in the center of
the stem at the ground. They have
been doing this for three years in the
field, being nearly ready to bloom when
they wilt. The rot starts in the green-
house when they are about half grown.
They are in good, fresh soil, the same
as we use for carnations and mums.
I have only watered overhead enough
to keep down red spider. The seed has
been obtained from different firms. The
soil is a clay loam sod, rotted, with
some rotted cow manure added to it.
W. C. S.
If you have planted the asters on
the same ground each year you are
fairly certain to get stem-rot once you
have had it, as the spores stay in the
ground, ready to fasten on the next
plant of similar character which is near
them. Asters should have a change of
soil each year and the ground should be
liberally manured and broken up in the
fall. Stem-rot usually has its inception
in the seedling frames or flats in the
greenhouses. If seedlings are left too
crowded and, when pricked off, the
stems are too deeply buried, as is often
done, stem-rot is likely to develop.
You cannot do anything now which
will stop the stem-rot, but another year
change the location for the plants.
Prepare it in the fall and, with care
given the seedlings, you should have no
trouble. There is little stem-rot on
asters sown in coldframes, and usually
none on such as are raised outdoors.
I would give tlie land now occupied by
the asters a liberal liming in the fall
and sow with winter rye. Plow this in
next spring and use for some other -crop
than asters. C. W.
CHICAGO.
The Great Central Market.
As early as June 12 there began to
be signs of the hoped for change in
market conditions and by Saturday
night the situation had become in
marked contrast to the conditions which
had prevailed for the preceding three
weeks. The midsummer heat was fol-
lowed by weather colder than normal
for the date. The high temperatures
had run the crops off and the cold
weather served to check the production
to a point even less than it ordinarily
would have been expected to be. The
market was fairly clean on the night
of June 13, for the first time since the
last week in May.
The opening of the present week
brought active business. Apparently
conditions have changed over a wide
stretch of country. Every buyer has
had a local supply since the hot weather
struck, but now the home supplies are
cut down, just as the Chicago supplies
have been reduced. The result is that
buyers who have not been heard from
for a fortnight are ordering again this
week. This is school closing week, and
its effect is being felt. There is much
call for stock of special colors, as well
as for decorating material.
The enormous waste the last two
weeks is at an end. Also, the bargain
sales are past. Such flowers as are com-
ing in can all be cleared if of usable
quality. There is considerable stock
that is not good enough to be salable,.

but all stock of fair quality is moving
well.
Perhaps the best demand is for Amer-
ican Beauties. During the recent hot
weather these have shipped more re-
liably than other flowers and, the sup-
ply being large, the trade has got into
the habit of ordering Beauties. The
supply this week is much reduced and
prices for the best are stiff. There con-
tinue to be quantities of Beauties that
are not quite good enough to meet the
needs of critical trade, but even these
find buyers at much better prices than
prevailed while the hot weather was
on. The supply of roses this week is
only a fraction of what it was seven
days ago; and good roses are extremely
scarce. Everything that possesses any-
thing like fair quality is selling at rea-
sonable prices. There is special call
for red and yellow, with some difficulty
in filling orders. Killarney Brilliant has
been added to the list of varieties.
Carnations are more abundant than
any other flower. Although many
growers are busy throwing out the old
stock and replanting the benches, there
continue to be large receipts. The
flowers mostly are small arid many still
are soft. The demand is good and the
strictly first-class carnations sell
quickly, but it is not yet possible to
get anything like quoted prices for the
majority of the stock. Average prices,
however, will be much better than for
last week.
The local peony cut came to an end
last week and it has developed that the
quantities of peonies in storage are not
so large as was expected to be the case.
For one reason or another many growers
failed to cut as many as expected in
condition for storage. There was a
tremendous waste while the local cut
was on, but with the opening of this
week good peonies became excellent

property. That the few firms that have
considerable quantities in storage are
more or less in doubt as to the keeping
qualities is shown by the way some of
them are pushing the stock onto the
market this week.
Sweet peas were practically finished
off by the high heat last week; only a
few are coming in and these are not
good. Gladioli increase in quantity
daily; they are good and are selling
well this week. Easter lilies, while they
continue abundant, are selling better,
because of the generally improved con-
ditions. Kubrum lilies constitute one
item in heavier supply this week than
last. Shasta daisies have arrived to
reinforce the yellow and field varieties.
Coreopsis, gaillardias and other summer
flowers now meet with fair sale. Snap-
dragon is dwindling. The price of
cattleyas is advancing, with increasing
demand and decreasing supply. Valley
is abundant and large quantities are
moved each day.
The scarcity of ferns is a thing of
the past and prices are falling rapidly.
Atlas Block Changes.
Work shortly is to be started on
changes in the Atlas block to conform
to a recent ordinance compelling the
clearing of sidewalks in the downtown
district. At present the walk on the
east side of the Atlas block is broken
by the entrances to the stores of Weil-
and & Eisch, the J. B. Deamud Co.
and the cut flower and supplies depart-
ment of the E. F. Winterson Co. The
Weiland & Bisch entrance will be closed
by the removal of the stairs, but the
firm has another entrance from Ean-
dolph street and will not be inconve-
nienced. The removal of the stairs also
will close the entrance to the Deamud
store, and it has not yet been decided
what will be done in the matter. The
Winterson stairs merely will be moved
in a few feet.
A similar change having recently
been made in the entrance of A. L.
Vaughan & Co., the market section
then will be cleared up except for the
entrance to the store of Kennicott Bros.

The News at Smyth's.
Eeturning to the store June 15, W. J.
Smyth completed a six days' automobile
tour which included a trip to Madison,
Wis., to get Miss Smyth, who last week
completed her first year at the Uni-
versity of Wisconsin; thence to Anti-
och, 111., where Sunday was spent at
the Smyth summer home at Lake Marie.
Business for the season shows up all
right by comparison with other years,
but it has been the holiday weeks that
are responsible, as the good gains then
offset quiet times between and espe-
cially since Memorial day. Last week,
however, brought a good run of busi-
ness, with some large funeral pieces
for June 14 and a good wedding at
Madison, Wis., June 15, for which a
staff outfit was used.
William McCormick, dean of the
Smyth staff, was called to his old home
at Slingerlands, N. Y., last week by
news of the serious illness of his mother,
who is 90 years old.
The frequency with which one or the
other of the big show windows is
broken from without has become some-
thing of a joke, except to the insurance
company. The big pane on the Michi-
gan avenue side was replaced last week
because of a bad crack that came in a
gale.
Various Notes.
One of W. F. Schofield's hopes for a
seat in the city council went glimmer-
ing June 13, with the decision of the
Supreme court affirming the constitu-
tionality of the woman's suffrage act.
At the aldermanic election in April the
North State street florist was beaten by
the women's vote. He not only peti-
tioned for a recount but filed a contest
attacking the legality of the woman
vote.
On its second sailing from New York,
June 16, the world's largest steamship
carried Albert F. Amling, Mrs. Amling
and Clarence Amling, bound for a sum-
mer in Germany. Their address until
September 1 will be care Rev. H. G.
Amling, Tell street 61, Newkolin, Berlin,

most of the points of trade interest in

After having spent almost six weeks
in the Presbyterian hospital. Miss
Carrie Zech, daughter of John Zech, is
considerably improved as the result of
the treatment received there. Her
trouble is called neuritis, the inflam-
mation of nerves.
James Friedl, 3528 West Twenty-
sixth street, reports he has had plenty
of funeral work lately.
General Manager Emil Reichling is
by no means satisfied with the results
obtained with carnations at the Peter
Reinberg establishment ' this season.
He lays the trouble to bad weather
while in the field and late planting
last summer. Consequently the bulk of
the carnations this season will be grown
under glass all summer. June 15 he
said he had benched over 100,000 plants
direct from pots.
Increasing business has necessitated
John Riemersma, of the Park Manor
Greenhouses, to build two more houses,

LansdoY^ne.
The Natural History Society of this
progressive suburb held an outdoor flow-
er show in the Twentieth Century hall
on the afternoon and evening of Satur-
day, June 13. It was one of those spir-
ited, free-for-all, amateur affairs that
create interest and give pleasure to all
concerned. J. Liddon Pennock prevailed
on W. M. Thompson to add a touch of
decorative art, to which his brother
added some material that helped by giv-
ing a setting to the scene. There were
over fifty competitors and several hun-
dred visitors admired the flowers dis-
played. They were good flowers, as you
will know when you near that growers of
the caliber of Dr. Kobert G. Huey were
among the contestants. So keen was
the interest that the same hall has al-
ready been engaged for next year's
flower show, to be held one week earlier,
June 6, 1915, which, as it happens, falls
on Sunday. Has the Great Sam noticed
this!
Pottery Progress.
The Whilldin Pottery Co. is building
a new 3-story brick stable and garage,
adjacent to the plant at 716 Wharton
street; also two new kilns of unusual
size, rivaling the surrounding house
tops in height. These kilns require
skilled experts in their construction.
When complete, this will double the out-
put of the pottery. A large-sized grind-
ing and mixing machine is being in-
stalled, to insure a uniform, smoothly
finished red pot. These improvements
show that the company will be in splen-
did shape for the coming season. A
little bird says that the genial presi-
dent, J. G. Whilldin, is being ably sec-
onded in pushing business by P. M.
Bead. Further imprcrvementB are being
made in the office, in the way of labor-
saving devices.
Building in Delaware County.
Greenhouse building is actively pro-
gressing among the Delaware county
growers. William J. Muth has been
successful in raising the banner of the
King Construction Co. all over Lans-
downe and Garrettford. Mr. Muth's
contracts include William A. L^nard's
house, 40x300, and James Yemer'a
house, 42x183, both previously men-
tioned in this column; also David An-
derson's house, 45x250, material for E.
F. Lieker for repairs, and William Did-
den's house, 28x175. Mr. Muth says,
"It doesn't look like hard times here;
looks pretty good to me. I didn't vote
for Wilson, but will vote to have him
reelected if this keeps up."
Varioua Notes.
B, Eschner, president of the M. Rice
Co., and Mrs. Eschner, arrived home well
and hearty June 15. Mr. Eschner was
received hj Eaymond Brunswick with a
happy smile that plainly said, "All's
well."
H. Bayersdorfer and Mrs. Bayersdorf-
er have sent greetings to their friends
in this city from the Hotel De La Ville,
Florence, under date of June 3.
The Joseph Heacock Co. has put a
new Pierce-Arrow truck on the road.
Henry A. Dreer, Inc., had a beautiful
rose exhibit in its Chestnut street win-
dow this week. There were several
novelties, unknown here. The place of
honor was given to the Daily Mail prize-

EVANSVILLE, IND.
June 13 this city was hit by the hard-
est storm it has had for years. The
wind blew in almost cyclonic force,
tearing roofs off buildings, uprooting
trees, breaking off telegraph poles, etc.
It rained in torrents, accompanied by
hail varying in size from marbles to
hen's eggs. Every greenhouse suffered
more or less.
The Wm. Blackman Floral Co., Julius
Niednagel & Sons and C. L. Niednagel
report only slight damage by hail. Miss
Nellie Goodge suffered a loss of about
$200. Louis Fritsch reports only a
slight damage to his greenhouses, but
several trees in his orchard were blown
down. J, C. Elspermann lost about thir-
ty panes of glass. Koyston & Fenton
lost only about a dozen panes of glass.
Henry Seymour suffered more damage,
probably, than any other florist, the
wind caving in about fifteen feet of the
roof of one house and blowing in the
windows of his shed. His 25-foot brick
stack fell, narrowly missing him and
his son as they were about to leave the
greenhouses. Mr. Seymour said the hail-
stones were the size of hen 's eggs and
thinks about twenty-five boxes of glass
will cover- his loss.
Austin "Wallace was hard hit. The
roof of a shed nearby was lifted and
crashed into the end of his wide house,
caving in the roof for about twenty
feet. He lost some glass by hail. Karl
Zeidler suffered a loss of about $300 in
a storm a week ago. He had just got
things in shape again when the second
storm hit him, undoing a great part of
what he had repaired. E. L. F.

The Market.
The hot wave last week completely
knocked the bottom out of business. The
present week opens with more com-
fortable weather and an improvement
in conditions. The numerous class days
and graduations, added to weddings,
are temporarily bracing up the mar-
ket. Boses went slowly last week, but
now are doing better. Some growers
are now resting their plants and the
receipts are falling off. Such varieties
as Bussell, Sunburst, Shawyer and Had-
ley sell particularly well. American
Beauties are abundant and of fine qual-
ity, but prices are not commensurate
with quality. The call is largely for
short and medium grades. Carnations
are getting small and are evidently
nearing the end. Of good sweet peas
there is a shortage; the hot weather is
finishing the indoor crop, while out-
door plants are suffering from drought.
Valley has had a good call and lilies
have done a little better than formerly.
Yellow marguerites and double blue corn-
fiowers have sold well. Snapdragons
remain in disfavor; so do such flowers
as candytuft, stocks, spirasas, etc.
Peonies now are at their flood tide and
the prices average low, except for good
pink and white varieties. Owing to
drought and heat, the flowers quickly
drop to pieces. Large-flowered gladioli
are more plentiful, and there is an over-
flow of the nanus varieties. The call
for asparagus and ferns is somewhat
improved this week.

been just right for peony day. Vagaries
of climate make it difficult to set any
dates for these summer shows. Peonies,
hardy herbaceous plants and orchids
were features of the show which filled
the main room at Horticultural hall

a few late varieties were shown.

Walter Hunnewell had a display of
Ehododendron delicatissimum. Mount
Desert Nurseries had a fine collection
of herbaceous flowers, among which
eremuri were a feature. Jackson Daw-
son received a certificate of merit for a
collection of seedling climbing roses
and R. & J. Farquhar & Co. were
awarded a silver medal for an exten-
sive display of hardy herbaceous
flowers, finely arranged. Mrs. E. M.
Gill was again to the fore with a fine
collection of peonies. G. W. Page had
a collection of hemerocallis; Old Farm
Nurseries, a fine bank of herbaceous
flowers; Henry Stewart, hydrangeas,
roses and poppies; Geo. Page, gardener
for Mrs. F. Ayer, Canterbury bells, and
Miss M. L. Waite the curious snow
plant, Sarcodes sanguinea.
Various Notes.
Few spaces now are unoccupied in
the S. A. F. convention garden and
firms unrepresented must apply early
for space or they will be too late. Wil-
liam Tricker finished planting his
aquatics last week, and Carter's Tested
Seeds, Inc., also completed its grass seed
plots. Subscriptions to the local enter-
tainment fund are coming in freely and
everything has an optimistic outlook.
Mr. and Mrs. Geo. W. Butterworth,
of South Framingham, left June 16 on a
vacation, to be spent with Mrs. Butter-
worth 's friends in New Jersey.
Among the local growers of fine
peonies coming much to the fore are
the Wellesley Nurseries, owned by Geo.
H. Smith. A fine selection of the choic-
est kinds are grown here.
The Fruit Hill Greenhouses, of Provi-
dence, R. I., are sending in quantities
of the Mexican poppy, Hunnemannia
fumarisefolia, which local growers seem
to confound with the California poppy,
Eschscholzia Californica.
Peirce Bros., of Waltham, are cut-
ting some nice Cattleya Mossise; also
Spencer sweet peas and yellow mar-
guerites in quantity.

Penn is having a large number of
decorations this week, apart from regu-
lar wedding orders. His decorations at
the Harvard Club and University Club,
at Harvard College June 16, were quite
elaborate.
Edmund J. Welch, son of Patrick
Welch, the genial vice-president of the
S. A. F., was married June 10 to Miss
Anna Adeline Welch at St. Patrick's
church, Roxbury. The church was beau-
tifully decorated and was filled to over-
flowing with friends of the young
people, who are popular and to whom
the sincere good wishes of a host of
friends go out.
J. T. Butterworth has a splendid lot
of Cattleya Mossise for June weddings.
The fine variety, Mrs. J. T. Butter-
worth, is splendid now. Most of the
gigas will not flower before August.
J. Leach & Son, of North Easton,
still have a splendid lot of valley. Their
carnation, Pink Supreme, proves a
splendid hot weather variety.
McAlpine & McDonald receive fewer
roses now; the crops at Exeter, N. H.,
are being gradually dried off.
New England is suffering from a
severe drought and, unless relief comes
soon, the crop outlook will be serious.

Oscar A. Knight's greenhouse, demolish-
ing a large section of the house and
destroying a large number of plants. It
required several hours' work to extri-
cate the machine, and the loss to Mr.
Knight will probably reach $500. There
was no one in the machine at the time
of the accident, and it is supposed the
brakes suddenly became loose while the

BALTIMORE.
The Market.
The extremely warm weather of the
last week has completely taken the
starch out of business. The demand for
cut flowers is small. A few orders for
weddings and funerals and a few grad-
uation bouquets comprise all the busi-
ness being done. Roses and carnations
are of poor quality and are not sellinjj
at any price. A small quantity of j^ood
stock is being disposed of at fair prices.
Beauties and valley were the leaders
among the week's sales. Rambler rose
sprays have arrived, but are selling
slowly. Some cold storage peonies are
being shown, but meet with little de-
maud and their quality is not up to the
standard. All outdoor stock is at a
standstill, being almost destroyed by
drought, as it is about five weeks since
any rain fell. Large quantities of
Lilium candidum are coming in, but are
selling slowly at low prices. There is
a prospect of good business during the
coming week, owing to a large number
of commencement exercises. Outdoor
sweet peas are coming in and, despite

the dry season, some good flowers are

Various Notes.
The local branch of the Leo Niessen
(.'o. handled a large crop of fine water
lilies, in red, white, pink and yellow,
from an out-of-town grower. These
flowers are something of a novelty in
the local market and found a ready
sale.
Ilalliday Bros, are receiving some
good cut asters from their greenhouses
at Monkton. These are the first to be
seen this year. This firm also had the
decorations for the graduation exercises
at the .Johns Hopkins University, held
in the Academy of Music, June 9.
F. C. Bauer, of Govanstown, has
started work in razing one of his green-
houses, which will be replaced with one
of more modern construction. A number
of other houses are to be repaired and
reglazed.
Kdward Kress reports having sold
during the last spring over 5,000 rose
plants, of which about 1,700 were his
new red rose. Defiance. Considering
that these were all sold at retail, this
speaks well for Defiance's first year on
the market.
E. A. Seidewitz had on exhibition in
his store window on Charles street re-
cently a unique picture, showing a cliff
and beach scene. The cliflFs were formed
of natural rocks glued to the canvas,
and numbers of smaller rocks were scat-
tered about on the beach, which was of
natural sand, also glued to the canvas.
The picture was banked on either side
with potted ferns, but, instead of an
advertisement of the florist, on one
large rock was displayed the ad of a
well known breakfast cereal.

Baltimore street, there were recently
displayed, along with the usual show
of plants and cut flowers, a large num-
ber of telephones from all parts of the
window, which ended in one line. These
were intended to emphasize the many
parts of the city served by this firm.
Miss Minna H. Seidlich, daughter of
Mr. and Mrs. F. A. Seidlich, of Wood-
lawn, was married June 10 to John T.
Boland, at the parsonage of Salem Lu-
theran church. The bride's parents are
well known florists of Lexington market
and the bride was employed by Pierce
& Co. at the North Charles street store
up to the time of her marriage. The
couple are spending their honeymoon at
Atlantic City, where they first met dur-
ing the vacation season last year.
William Kalb, of Geo. S. Kalb & Sons,
pot manufacturers of Catonsville, was
injured June 8, while running a pot
mold. The first finger of his left hand
was badly crushed by being caught in
the mold.
The Pennock-Meehan Co. is receiving
some good spikes of America and Mrs.
Francis King gladioli, which are finding
a ready sale at good prices. Some good
Beauties were also handled by the firm
last week.
The subject of the annual outing of
the dardeners' and Florists' Club of
this city will come up for discussion at
its next regular meeting, June 22. It
is hoped to have a large turnout on this
occasion and every member is urged to
be present.
Chas. H. Sieck, proprietor of Chas. E.
Smith & Co., 121 North Liberty street,
died June 10, at the age of 49 years.
Further particulars will be found in this
week's obituary column.

houses later than usual this ye^r, thus
putting a larger quantity of cut flowers
on the market than usual, but at present
prices they hardly pay for the watering,
not to count the time spent in cutting
and sending them to market.

The Market.
The extremely hot weather of the
last week has practically put an end to
all indoor stock. Many benches are
being cleared to make room for young
mum stock. Many of the growers are
cutting gladioli in quantity. Some
Niagara are being cut. This charming
new variety seems to have all the good
qualities of America; its color is a deli-
cate cream-yellow, lightly marked and
splashed with rosy carmine. They were
much admired by all who saw them.
Outdoor sweet peas are at their best.
Various Notes.
Ira II. Landis, of Paradise, and Wal-
ter Denlinger, of Vintage, are cutting
immense quantities of outdoor sweet
peas. L. 8. Landis also has fine stock.
E. Koplitz, of Madison, X. .!., repre-
sentative of the Sefton Mfg. Co., in the
east, called on the trade here last week.
He made the trip in his 90-horse-power
Oldsmobile, and was accompanied by
his wife and son and his sister-in law,
Miss Goldbach, of Baltimore.
At Long park, for the last ten days,
the peony plantings have been a con-
stant attraction to the flower lovers of
Lancaster. The delphiniums, papavers
and pyrcthrums are also worthy of note.
.John C. Dinan is park commissioner
here.
At the B. F. Barr & Co. store Chas. F.
Edgar has arranged a window display
that attracts many passers-by. A rural
scene is presented, showing miniature
lily ponds, with goldfish, and a Jap-

fuzzy ducklings with their antics fur-
nish plenty of amusement. The whole
is cleverly arranged and reflects credit
on Mr. Edgar's artistic ability.
In a local rose garden, all abloom,
the following ramblers were noted:
Veilchenblau, a beautiful thing with its
violet-blue tint; Dorothy Perkins, that
beautiful pink, with its wonderful free-
dom and blooming qualities; Lady Gay,
with its exquisite deeper pink, and
"White Dorothy, with its clusters of pure
white. All these should be planted
more extensively.

George R. Pedrick A Son
KDRICKTOWN. N. I.
Hot Shot
Was the answer of oar fleet before
Vera Cruz that bright April day, '
belched forth in fire and smoke,
emphasized with shells. A finer
piece of marksmanship than the San
Francisco, Prairie and Chester made
in picking off the snipers, hidden
snake-like on the baildings. cannot
be ma'cle. Oar jaokies aboard tlie
floating fortresses hnmor and oare
for their babies, the 13 and 14-inck
guns, and thtfse of smaller caliber,
as if those weapons of destmction
VMM human. The breedi-hio^ksAFe
kept in perfect working order, the '
electric firing pin is kept practically
hair-trigger fine, the bore and muz-
zle kept as clean as a whistle with-
out scratch or mar, even the gun and
mount kept painted to guard against
erosion, not saying anything of the
bright parts being kept polished and
the recoil cylinders filled with the
proper proportion of glycerine and
water. Only with this care can the
high and splendid record for marks-
manship of our boys aboard our
fighting ships be accompliehed, un-,
equaled by any navy in the world.
Care and attention is the order
aboard ship — so in the greenhouses
should the order be, care and atten-
tion. Bulbs can't just be stuck in
the soil and expect results; you've got
to "turn to" and help nature to get
all out of the bulbs that is contained
in them, and this more particularly
applies to lily bulbs. With being
potted right, getting every care and
attention as to water, drainage, heat,
kept clean of insect pests and so on
— with you having Horseshoe Brand
Bulbs — a high percentage of returns
will be the result. Horseshoe Brand
Bulbs, particularly lily bulbs, ave-
rage higher than any other, regard-
less of name or brand — why risk
disappointment in getting others?

IOWA SEEDSMEN MEET.
Officers Elected.
The Iowa Seed Dealers' Association
held its annual meeting at Shenandoah,
la., June 12, and elected the following
officers:
President — Henry Field, of Shenan-
doah.
Vice-president — E. M. Cole, of Pella.
Secretary — J. F. Sinn, of Clarinda.
Treasurer — J. T. Hamilton, of Cedar
Bapide.
Executive committee — G. H. Cum-
mins, of Sioux City; M. Kirtzwell, of
Des Moines; J. F. Sinn, of Clarinda; M.
L, Webster, of Independence, and C. G.
Owen, of Council Bluffs.
Legislative committee — C. M. Page,
of Des Moines; H. A. John, of Sioux
City, and J. T. Hamilton, of Cedar
Rapids.
Membership committee — A. M. El-
dridge, of Shenandoah; William Grote,
of Council Bluffs, and J. E. Hoopes, of
Muscatine.
Business Session.
The seedsmen gathered for business
in the Elks' club house at 10:30 a. m.,
but found themselves a little handi-
capped by the absence of President Mel.
L. Webster, who telegraphed his inabil-
ity to come on account of the illness of
•his wife, and of the secretary, who
missed his train and did not arrivje until
after dinner. Vice-president Field occu-
pied the chair and did it so well that he
was elected president for the ensuing
year. Questions of transportation, par-
cel post, express rates, postage, weights
and measures, and the laws came up for
discussion. After a long discussion the
association put itself on record as favor-
ing the substitution of weights for dry
measures, although there was a wide
division on this point.
Prof. W. D. Hughes, of the state col-
lege at Ames, talked interestingly on
alfalfa, and the other speakers were not
behind him in interestingness.
When the meeting had adjourned, a
dozen automobiles took the visitors on
a tour of the town. At the test gardens
of the H, FHeld Seed Co. a stop was
made for inspection, and after another
ride the party went through the pack-
ing houses of the Mt. Arbor Nurseries
and D. S. Lake's Shenandoah Nurseries.
Supper was served on the grounds of
A. M. Eldridge 's residence by employees
of the Field Seed Co.
Those Present.
A good attendance from all parts of
the state made the meeting a lively one.

New Winter-blooming ORCHID- FLOWERED
Sweet Pea ^^Anita Wehrman"
A fln«y cl«ar lavender, with three to four flowers to stem, and has been grown with 20- inch stems, holding the
length longer than is usual with any other winter-flowering variety.
Will bloom from Thanksgiving on, if sown in July,
This variety originated with Mr. Henry Wehrman, of May wood. 111., five years ago, and has been grown and selected
by him ever since, he now having the type fixed as well as it can be in the Spencer variety.
The seed we offer is greenhouse-grown, saved and rogued by tlie originator, and will be ready for delivery in July,
the proper time to sow for Thanksgiving and Christmas bloom.
The cut of this variety having been handled on the Chicago Market by the E, C. Amling Co., we give herewith
their opinion of its value as a, cut flower.

SEED CROPS IN GERMANY.
Late reports from the German seed
growing sections, around Quedlinburg
and Erfurt, indicate that on the whole
conditions are fairly satisfactory, al-
though the weather has been abnormal,
too cold, too warm, too dry or too wet,
from one extreme to another during
most of the late winter and spring. On
the whole the biennial and perennial
vegetables and flowers grown for seed
production have withstood the unfavor-
able conditions better than would be
expected and are looking well. The
spring planted crops were got out under
some difficulties, but have made a good
stand and promise normal yields. Those
crops principally exported all promise
ordinarily well, except perhaps radish,
which is becoming steadily a more im-
portant crop in the Erfurt district.
Spinach promises an excellent crop.
There is some difference in the various
carrots, the short varieties not doing so
well as the long kinds. Pansies have
recently been making a magnificent
show. Many houses have specialized on
pansies, working up their strains and
finding a constantly increasing sale for
the seed, which calls for planting great-
er breadths each year, Quedlinburg,
which probably grows more flower seeds
than any other similar district in the
world, reports active demand for such
specialties as primula, calceolaria, cin-
eraria, mvosotis and wallflower.
WAI.T MASON ON FREE SEEDS.
Walt Mason devotes one of his effu-
sions to free seeds. He says:
' ' Our congressmen should make an
effort to get wise to what we're really
wanting, I'd like to have a chug-chug
cart to ease my corns and bunions, and
oh I it breaks my world-worn heart to
get a pack of onions! I'd like to see
my daughters wear swell lids and silken
dresses, and here I get, to my despair,
some wilted watereresseer Our con-
gressman, who sheds his blood when
perils brood and trouble, has got a head-
piece full of mud — he ought to take a
tumble. ' '

GREEN APHIS ON CUCUMBERS.
Will 'you please let me have a de-
pendable remedy for the small green
lice that attack cucumber vines under
the leaves, and which make short work
of them? E. G. S.
It will be necessary to turn the vines
over if they are growing outdoors, and
spray them with tobacco water. Either
soak some tobacco stems or use one of
the specially prepared extracts. Other
remedies are Aphine, whale oil soap,
kerosene emulsion. Ivory soap, etc. Do
the spraying in the evening rather than
when the sun is high. The nicotine
sprays are less liable to burn cucumber
foliage than the others named. Some-
times I have found that by turning the
vines over and giving them a good dust-
ing of tobacco dust, applied through a
powder bellows, almost all tlie aphis will
be killed. C. W.
COPENHAGEN MARKET CABBAGE.
I have been growing Copenhagen
Market Cabbage since its introduction
and have had trouble with rotting. It
has been worse this season than ever
before. It seems to begin to rot on
one side about the time it begins
to head. I have All Head Early and
some other varieties in the same patch,
but they never are aflfected in this way.
Can you tell me the cause! Do others
have the same trouble? My location is
Oklahoma. W. R. M.
I have not had any trouble with
Copenhagen Market such as you de-
scribe. Possibly your hot sun scorches
the inner leaves and starts the rot re-
ferred to. This is a Danish introduc-
tion and, in my estimation, the best
early cabbage we have, Danish Ball
Head being the finest winter sort. It
would be interesting to know if other
growers of this cabbage have had simi-
lar trouble. C. W.

The Market.
The early spring this year has caused
the dull season in the flower business
to come earlier than usual, and already
the customary summer stagnation has
set in. An occasional funeral is about
the only thing to relieve the monotony.
One of the drawbacks to a mild climate,
as far as the flower trade in this locality
is concerned, is that flowers grow out-
side with so little care and cultivation
that most families can generally from
May to October get nearly all the
flowers they want, from their own
or a neighbor's garden. There is an
abundance of all seasonable flowers in
the stores. As usual at this time, roses
have the preference and of these there
are plenty to satisfy all requirements.
Carnations are cheap, too cheap, as they
have been nearly all year, and growers
are hard put to it to make a living
from them, at the prices that have pre-
vailed ever since Christmas. We used
always to buy carnations till June 1
,at $3 per hundred; this year they have
been $2 except at holiday times and the
difference is quite important. Coreopsis
and the like are arriving in ever in-
creasing quantities and sweet peas are
80 cheap that it hardly pays to pick
them. We are all looking and hoping
for a much better year next year, with

The Florists^ Review
Junk 18, 1914.
' GREENWICH, CONN.
There was a large attendance at the
monthly meeting of the Westchester
^ and Fairfield Horticultural Society at
the rooms in Doran's hall June 12.
President Robert Williamson occupied
the chair. Two new members were
elected and several applications for
membership were received. The sum-
mer and fall show committees reported
progress and offers of substantial addi-
tions to the premium lists of both ex-
hibitions were read and accepted. M. C.
Ebel, secretary of the National Asso-
ciation of Gardeners, was present and
delivered a lengthy address on the co-
operative movement between the local
societies and the national association.
After a discussion it was unanimously
decided that our society should join in
this movement and the president ac-
cordingly appointed a committee of
three members to act in conjunction
with the national cooperative commit-
tee.
A pleasant feature of the meeting
was the competition for the '.Michell
silver and bronze medals, open to as-
sistant gardeners only, for the best ar-
ranged table centerpiece composed of
outdoor flowers and foliage. Several
beautiful creations were ou exhibition.
David B. Ridpath, of Mamaroneck,
N. Y., was awarded the silver medal
and Andrew P. Clarkson, of Port Ches-
ter, N. Y., carried off the bronze medal.
Neil Maclnnes, of Mamaroneck, and
Adam Smith, of Rye, N, Y., were given
votes of thanks. The taste displayed
in their work was a credit to the ex-
hibitors.
The judges made the following
awards to the non-competitive exhibits
of the other members: Alex. Marshall,
cultural certificate for a magnificent
plant of Miltonia vexillaria and a cut
spray of Cattleya Mendellii; Thos.
Aitchison, highly commended for a
specimen plant of Oncidium Went-
worthianum; P. W. Popp, vote of
thanks for a vase of climbing American
Beauty, a hardy climber of recent in-
troduction that will be popular when
better known.
The summer show will be held on the
hospital grounds at Port Chester June
19 and 20. P. W. P.

The Market.
^Vith the exception of graduations^
weddings and a few funerals, business
is dull. Htock is plentiful and the
growers at times are not able to dis-
])ose of all their cut. Peonies are at
their best and the retailers are pushing
them strongly; the flowers are fine and
the supi^ly is large. Outdoor sweet peas
are in and are selling at low prices.
All growers of bedding stock report
a go6(f season and planting is nearly
♦ ompleteil.
Various Notes.
June 9 the St. Paul Florists' Club
held the last meeting for this season
and plans were discussed for the sum-
mer picnic. The Minneapolis club favors
a joint picnic of the two clubs. They
evidently are under the impression that
they can play baseball better than they
can bowl. A committee was appointed
to meet the Minneapolis committee.
Sam Seligman was present and gave
one of his characteristic talks.
The burglars who broke into L. L.
May's place Memorial day are still at
large and no clue has been discovered
as to their identity.
J. W. Hoffman is well pleased with
his new location and reports a decided
increase in business.
X. C. Hanson contemplates building
several new houses this summer. He
reports his carnations in the finest pos-
sible condition for this time of the
year. Mr. Hanson is cutting a fine lot
of gladioli.
Calvin Kinsman, of Austin, spent the
greater part of last week in this city.
Holm & Olson are well pleased with
the spring season. The handsome
catalogue greatly stimulated business.
S. D. Dysinger, of Holm & Olson's, is
confined to his home by illness.
The Minnesota State Florists' Asso-
ciation held its first summer meeting
in conjunction with the Minnesota
State Horticultural Society at the Agri-
cultural school, St. Anthony Park, Tues-
day, June 16. There was a big display
of summer flowers.
C. C. Bennett is busy at his Wabasha
street location. He reports a decided
increase in business over what was done
at his old Sixth street location.
O. E. Eckhardt Co. reports a fine
out-of-the-city business. 0. R. F.

GERANIUMS
Careful growers do not depend on the scrubs left over from the bedding
season for propagating their next season's stock. They know that it pays them
to safeguard the vitality of the geranium stock, just as well as of the carnation
or the rose. We have thousands of vigorous young plants which were propa-
gated late for this purpose. Let us supply you from these— they are a bargain
at $2.50 per 100, $20.00 per 1000. We have :

The Florists' Review
JUNB 18, 1914.
INDIANAPOLIS, IND.
The Market.
Trade has quieted down considerably
in the last week. Good stock is hardly
obtainable. Beauties, roses and carna-
tions are showing the effects of the hot
weather. Some first-class gladioli are
being shipped into this market. Shasta
daisies are coming in, but not in large
quantities. Cut rambler and Dorothy
Perkins roses and yellow coreopsis are
some of the salable flowers. There have
been numerous weddings during the last
two weeks and, with the numerous school
commencements, there has been a good
call for flowers, .liowever, the arrange-
ment of vacation dates is the main topic
now, and a quiet time is before us.
.Various Notes.
Otto Laurence, with E. A. Nelson,
left last week for a three months' stay
in Europe. He expects to visit England,
Germany and France before he returns.
Walter Bertermann's automobile was
stolen recently by joy-riders. He found
It up in the north end of the oity the
next day.
Albert Pittet reports some good sales
of the seed of his new sweet pea, Bose
Queen.
Geo. Wiegand is contemplating an
automobile trip through the east in the
near future.
Frank Hasselman reports a fine bed-
ding plant trade this year, having
cleaned up most of his stock.
John Bieman says that he is getting
excellent service out of his new delivery
automobile. H. L. "W.
CLEVEI.AND, O.
June 8 the Florists' Club held its
first meeting in the new quarters at
HoUenden hotel. It was well attended,
even though the day was one of the
hottest June days we have had. The
club rooms are cool and pleasant, with
modern ventilation, which consists of
washed, cooled air being forced into the
rooms. The summer meetings hereafter
should be as well attended as winter
meetings, as a more pleasant place to
meet could not be found. A committee
was appointed to arrange for the an-
nual picnic, the date of which is to be
announced later. F. A. F.

EVERYBODY IS LOOKING FOR PROFIT
What is profit? How can you obtain profit? Just by this very simple
plan: Plant your empty benches with the right kind of ASTER "4. We
have them, the genuine Creg^ Asters. This well known variety will
bring you the "rocks," the money, the so-Iong-sought-for profit. 2^j-inch pots,
bushy plants, the four leading colors, the pink, the white, the rose-pink and
the lavender; these are the branching varieties, bearing an abundance of large
flowers; by September they are all cut, and you can reset your benches with
ferns, cyclamen, poinsettias, primroses, etc., for the fall and Xmas trade,
making some more profit for yourself.
We have 16,000 plants ready for you in 2i2finch pots, strong, $3.00 per
100. Cash with order, please.

200,000 GIANT FLOWERING CYCLAMEN
SEEDLINGS AND BLOOMING PLANTS.
For the last 16 yoars we have selected three-
fourths of our seed-bearing cyclamen stock he-
fore Xmas, to assure early blooming plants, and
claim the finest commercial strain In this coun-
try; no fizzle of many so-caiied English varieties.
Our aim is strong growers that don't have to be
petted to be grown into a choice salable plant—
a well built, flve-petaled flower (many of them
at one time), with well marked foliage; every
plant an Ideal, a prize winner. Received first
prize at the Cleveland show and first and second
at Toledo, early November, when blooming cyc-
lamen were scarce.

The majority of the florists are now
looking forward to a busy few weeks.
Graduations have begun, and on these,
with weddings, they are basing their
hopes. The florists who have outside work
to attend to have all they can do. Lack
of rain has played havoc with carna-
tions and other stock in the fields and
many growers have suffered considera-
ble loss.

Greenhouse Heating.
SuBSCRffiERS are invited to write the
Editor of this Department with regard
to any details of greenhouse heating that
are not understood. But please do not
ask The Review to make a choice of
apparatus for you. The greenhouse
heating equipment advertised in this
paper is, we believe, the best for the
trade to buy, and each article the best
in the special field of its adaptation.
COAL TBADE NOT FBOSFEBINO.
Because the coal companies are, for
various reasons, selling their product at
prices so low that no profit is allowed
over the cost of production, they are
gradually drifting towards the rocks of
receivership and insolvency, declares an
organ of the industry in a recent issue.
* ' Anyone, ' ' it says, * ' who will take the
trouble to go over the list of what
have been considered solid coal compa-
nies will be astounded to find the num-
ber now in the hands of receivers."
•These were brought there, the article
makes it plain, not by speculation or
overextension, but by the absence of a
sufficient margin between the cost of
production and the selling price.
Low prices made for the purpose of
extending the field or of meeting com-
petition, or, in some cases, made with
an incomplete knowledge of the cost of
production, have gradually cut the
ground from under the companies once
in stable condition. "Other concerns
now solvent," it is stated, "can look
at their books and see that, from the
present trend, there is but one ending
for them. That is insolvency and re-
ceivership— unless conditions change."
OBEENHOUSE AND WOBKBOOM.
Will you kindly inform me how I can
heat a greenhouse 18x40, ten feet high
to the ridge and five feet high at the
sides, with a workroom 10x10 at the
north end? The workroom and the side
walls of the greenhouse will be covered
with tar paper. The temperature
wanted will be 55 degrees in zero
weather. The house is protected from
severe winds. The boiler under consid-
eration is a No. 10 Ideal, a cast-iron
hot water boiler, the capacity of which
is unknown to me. The greenhouse con-

under each of the side benches and the
other four under the middle bench.
I have no catalogue of the Ideal
boiler at hand and do not recall the
rating of the No. 10 size. To heat the
house to 55 degrees, the boiler should
have the capacity to handle 350 square
feet of hot water radiation, and an
Ideal heater with a grate eighteen to
twenty inches in diameter should be
ample for the purpose. If the flow pipe
runs downhill and the expansion tank
is attached at the highest point, no air
valves will be required.
SMALL HOUSE FOR POT PLANTS.
I am building a greenhouse 25x28%
and eleven feet high to the ridge. The
greater part of one side of the house
will be against a brick building, in
which the boiler is located. There will
be four benches, each 5x21, running
across the house. The benches will be
two feet from the walls on all sides.
I want to grow potted plants, such as
geraniums, fuchsias, etc. I shall use
hot water for heating. Will you kindly
tell n)e how this house should b© piped
to get the best results! The location is
southeastern Michigan. G. E. D.
To act as the flow pipe, a 2i/4-inch
main should be carried to the farther
side of the house, to a point directly over
the ends of the benches, where pipes
should be taken off at right angles and
run to the ends of the house. From
these pipes "risers" should be dropped
to supply coils under each of the four
benches and on each of the walls. There
should be three 2-inch pipes in each of
the under-bench coils and two in each
of the wall coils. Connect the pipes in
each coil at the lower end, and join
them with a common return of the same
size as the main flow. pipe. Unless the
main flow and return can be given a
fairly direct connection with the boiler,
it would be well to have them of 3-inch
pipe.
FORECASTS BY COAL MEN.
This week's reports of the coal trade
still consist mostly of cheerful predic-
tions, as they have done for several
weeks, but the predictions have become
more positive and definite. If the coal
men have read the signs of the times
correctly, the long expected improve-
ment in the market is now so near in
the future that the prices are already
"trembling on the rise," like the fa-
mous drawbridge in Walter Scott's
"Marmion." There seems to be gen-
eral agreement in the belief that the
business reawakening will begin not
later than July 1. This opinion is re-
peated frequently throughout the coal
men 's reports, in so unhesitating a way
as to indicate that they are pretty sure
of their ground. "The outlook is for
a considerable improvement in business
after July 1," says one authority.
"Everyone looks forward with confi-
dence to good business after July 1,"
he says again.
The symptoms of coming revival ia
the coal trade are said to be of a gen-
eral character and visible in many dif-*
ferent lines of industry. Nearly all
kinds of business seem to be approach-
ing a turning point. The lowest level
has been reached and must be followed
by a rise, and the assurance of goo

with the whole commercial world. ' ' The
railways," it is said, "are just about
to close their fiscal year. All expendi-
tures now made will increase the cost
of operating the roads for the fiscal
year ending June 30. In order to keep
expenditures down, . railways are not
buying anything which they do not
need immediately. However, after July
1 the immediate necessity to influence
the annual balance sheet will not be
present and the railroads can buy with
a little more freedom. It is expected
that the railroads shortly after July 1
will begin a considerable movement to
store coal, because they appreciate that,
with the belated buying this year, the
fall rush for coal will be almost un-
precedented." It is also stated that
the railroads have good hope of receiv-
ing, by July 1, the desired permission to
increase their freight rates, and will
then begin such an accelerated move-
ment of freight as will give an impetus
to all lines of business.
Now, though this article is sincerely
meant to be a narration of facts and
not a fable, yet, like a fable, it points
a moral. And the moral, so plain that
it does not need to be put in words, is
pointed straight at the florist who has
not yet filled his coal bins. Of course,
the coal men's forecasts may not prove
to be correct, but it seems clear even

to the uninitiated that coal is not at
all likely to be cheaper after July 1
than it is now.
One of the authorities already quoted
from has this to say about the market
for smokeless coals at Chicago and vi-
cinity: "The smokeless coal market is
in a most peculiar position. There is a
steady supply of both first-class and
off-grade smokeless coal for sale in this
market at $1 per ton or even less. How-
ever, the retail dealers appreciate that
this low-priced coal cannot take care
of all of Chicago's demands throughout
the year. Chicago retailers, therefore,
are pinning their faith to the larger
companies which are asking circular
price of $1.25 for mine run. They are
taking their regular quotas of coal on

are basing their prices on circular fig-

the Chicago market is reasonably

COLUMBUS, O.
The Market.
Trade has quieted down considerably
since the last writing, as most of the
spring bedding is done now. There are
still a few stragglers coming in, and
in some cases it is hard to fill their
orders, as some lines are quite low now,
and most of the buyers are glad to get
what they can pick up. Geraniums have
sold well again this season and are
cleaned up in good shape. Salvias have
also had a good run and there was an
enorpious quantity of them. This plant
-is a strong rival to the geranium, as
almost everyone who planted it so plen-
tifully here as the centennial flower
still wants a good number along with
other plants. The growers in general
are well pleased with the spring busi-
ness and they all have reason to be sat-
isfied, for, as a rule, business in other
lines here is exceedingly quiet and has
beBn for the last few months.
The extremely hot weather has been
hard on stock in general and it is sur-
prising that stock is really as good as
it is, as it has been as hot as in July
and there has been little rain.
Carnations are getting . small and off
color, but there is still a good quantity
disposed of.- Koses are showing the
effects of thev warm weather and, as a
rule, are quite small. Sweet peas have
kept up well during the hot weather and
they are still a good seller; nearly all
are of the Spencer type, but while the
flowers are good the stems are getting
short. Valley has been in fair demand
and at times has-been scarcely plentiful
enough to go around, as the bridal show-
ers are much in demand at this writing.
There is also a considerable amount of
decorating being done for the June
brides.

GLEN COVE, N. Y.
The monthly meeting of the Nassau
County Horticultural Society was held
June 10, at Pembroke hall, with Presi-
dent H. Gaut in the chair. Charles Parr
and Henry Wenzel, both of Glen Cove,
were elected as active members. Mrs.
W. H. Porter, Glen Cove, was made an
honorary member and two petitions for
active membership were received.
Special prizes for the society's shows
were received from the following: A.
G. Hodenpyle, of Locust Valley, and
Hitchings & Co., New York. John
Scheppers & Co., New York, d«nated
$50 toward a display of Darwin tulips
for next spring.
The judges of the monthly exhibits

Hutton and their awards were as fol-
lows: Twelve hybrid perpetual roses,
one variety, F. Honeyman, first; twelve
strawberries, Henry Jones, first; vase of
twelve peonies, mixed, Henry Jones,

antha; W. Gray, for bunch of aspara-
gus. A certificate of culture was

a collection of peonies.
James Duthie, of Oyster Bay, read an
interesting and instructive essay on
'; Dahlia Culture for Exhibition, Cut-
ting for Housework and Garden Decora-
tion,*' which was well received, as Mr.
Duthie is a past master of the art of
dahlia culture.

STATE COLLEGE, PA.
The new Horticultural building was
dedicated with appropriate ceremonies
"Wednesday, June 10. In a brief sketch,
Dean E. L. Watts called attention to
the importance of the various horticul-
tural products of the state as reported
in the 1910 census. The figures show
that vegetables that year had a value
of $10,013,920 and fruit $10,691,679.
Flowers, plants and nursery products
had a value of $4,344,450. On the basis
of the total value of the horticultural
industries of the state, $25,050,049, the
investment in the Horticultural build-
ing at the college is thus seen to be less
than one two-hundredth. C. J. Tyson,
president of the Horticultural Society
of Pennsylvania, discussed the develop-
ment of horticulture at the college and
pointed particularly to the wonderful
growth made in the accession of stu-
dents. The total enrollment of students
in the school of agriculture during the
last decade has increased fifteen times
and that of students enrolled in the
various courses of horticulture more
than twenty times. *
A pastel portrait of Gabriel Heister,
a graduate and a former trustee of the
institution and formerly president of
the State Horticultural Society, was the
gift of the Crab Apple Club, a student
organization. Bruce W. Bell presented,
in behalf of the landscape gardening
department, a portrait of IVederick Law
Olmsted, the greatest American land-
scape gardener. In a brief address the
new head of the department. Professor
M. G. Kains, sketched the "Potentiali-
ties of Horticulture in Pennsylvania."
Professor F. A. Waugh, of the Massa-
chusetts Agricultural College, delivered
the address of the day, "The Arts of

r
BEADING, PA.
Tlie monthly meeting of the Reading
Retail Florista' Association was held in
the new quarters in the Moore building,
with a large attendance. A fall mum
show was decided on and a special meet-
ing has been called for June 18 to lay
plans and appoint committees. S. M.
Baer, of Kutztown, was elected to mem-
bership and several propositions were
received. The first picnic and outing
of the association will be held July 10.
The entertainment committee promises
some novel features for the day.
Business, both in plants and cut flow-
ers, continues good, the plantsmen being
quite busy since Memorial day. June
weddings in goodly numbers have kept
the stores going.
Wm. K. Hoskins has finished ]danting
the tour large reservoir parks. This
was one of the large city contracts.
J. C. Bander has placed a new Ford
car in the street. Business at his store
has been quite brisk, many large funeral
orders keeping the force working over-
time.
Heck Bros., having been cleaned out
of stock, have started planting nnums.
Frank Shearer and Lee Arnold, the
well known Wyimissing florists, report
having done satisfactory business this
spring. Paul Blachman, the popular
Ninth street florist, reports similar con-
ditions at his store.
Wm. Kern, of Hyde Park, has dis-
posed of all bedding plants and housing
mums has been started.
Fred Frank reports carnations in al-
most midwinter condition. His Spencer
sweet peas are of the best and he is
able to pick thousands of blooms daily.
H. J. Huesman & Son, having had a
complete clean- out of all bedding plants,
have started mum planting. Funeral
work continues brisk at this establish-
ment.
John H. Giles has been kept busy
with large wedding decorations and
plenty of funeral work.
Recent visitors included Peter Brown,
of Lancaster, and Wm. Turner, of Chi-
cago. H. C. H.

THE MODERN 3g
ig FLOWER STORE
The appearance of his store is the mark by which the enter^r
prising: and progressive spirit of the Retail Florist is measured
ROGEESS is the watchword
of the florists' trade, and
in nothing is this more evi-
dent than in the furnish-
ings and equipment of its
retail stores. In no respect
does the florist take second place in
the matter of store appointments and
decoration. Improvements find their
way into his store as quickly as into
the swellest specialty shop in any other
line, and frequently you find the flo-
rist setting the pace for all the mer-
chants of his town.
This is most obvious in our large
cities, where new ideas are soonest
heard of and the extent of the busi-
ness affords the greatest expenditure
for innovations. But the retailers in
the smaller cities and in country ' towns
cannot be called behind the times, for
they usually lead the storekeepers
of their locality. The modern flower
store is a feature in Oskaloosa, la.,
with its population of 10,000, as well
as in New York or Chicago.
The Store Front.
The first evidence of the progressive
and up-to-date storekeeper that pre-
sents itself to the casual passer-by is
the store front. If it is at night, a
big, but well proportioned and artistic
electric sign is prob-
ably the first thing to
catch his eye. In the
daytime the attrac-
tion of big display
windows, effectively
decorated, draws his
eyes and, not improb-
ably, his feet toward
the florist 's store.
Quiet colors, in keep-
ing with the general
tone of the place, add
to the store's appear-
ance from the street.
Should he enter the
modern flower store,
this passer-by will find
no step, either up or
down, to slow his
footsteps. A door
that yields readily, "to
his touch admits -^m
to the retailer's shop
before he is given any
opportunity to hesitate
from his first impulse.
Tiala Interior.
The grocer, the
butcher and the hard-
ware man may plan
their store interiors
for personal conven-
ience, but the florist
arranges his for effect
— on the customers.
To this end a general
tone predominates, quiet in color and
simple in effect. For this, floor, walls,
ceiling and fixtures are all given
thought and consideration beforehand.
Wooden floors are practically obso-
lete in the flower shop; linoleum is
still used for necessity, but up-to-date
floors are wanted for the modern store.
Tile, mosaic and terrazzo are becoming
common, and compositioa floors, laid
either in tile or monolithic form, are
coming into use. By means of these
last, colors can be used in the floor and
made to set off the flowers, as well as
the furnishings of the place. Then,
too, their good qualities — durability,
cleanliness, comfort underfoot, etc.,
recommend them to enterprising store
owners.
Walls and Ceiling.
More and more are mirrors of plate-
glass being used to line the lower walls
of flower stores. The appearance of
spaciousness thus given seems a de-
sirable feature to their owners. But
there are many stores without them,
and in these, the use of quiet, prevail-
ing colors gives an equally good re-
sult. The furniture and fixtures are
of one color and match the ornamental
beams of the ceiling, where they are a
part of the architecture. The portions
•• 1 !»

New Store of the Kemble Floral G>., Oskaloosa, Iowa
of the walls and ceiling not covered by
these are all of one color, invariably
lighter than that used for the lowet
parts.
The use of indirect lighting has made
it necessary to have the ceiling almost
a pure white, at least a cream. It is
rarely, however, that the sunlight is
so bright in a florist's store that so
light a tint will be found objection-
able. The uniform and subdued illumi-
nation given by this method of light-
ing is, on the other hand, such an ad-
vantage in the display of stock and
adds so much to the appearance of
the room that its use must become
more and more general. Other im-
provements in lighting and light fix-
tures also find a ready appeal to the
progressive retailer.
Fixtures.
Every storeman has his own ideas
on the arrangement and selection of
the fixtures in the modern flower store,
and each has his own good reasons to
back those ideas. There are, how-
ever, certain general tendencies that
are growing year by year. One that
began some time ago is the elimination
of the counter. Yet the counter still
clings in some stores and there are
salesmen who would feel lost without
something between
them and their custom-
ers. The counter may
serve well as a pro-
tection from an angry
customer, but it is a
barrier just as well
when the customer is
not angry, perhaps be-
fore he is a customer.
In these latter stages
it would be better to
do away with any-
thing that serves to
hold the patron and
salesman aloof, and,
so far as angry cus-
tomers are concerned,
these are presumably
so few in the modern
flower store as to be
negligible.
In the place of
counters, tables, few
and far between, will
serve. Wall cases and
refrigerators are bet-
ter than display coun-
ters to exhibit wares
and stock. Chairs for
customers to sit on
are better than coun-
ters for them to lean
upon, and take up less
room, and the roomier
the flower store the
better. All the fix-
tures should match^-

The emaller furniture may be of a
different color and design, though not
enough so to clash. Writing desks,
settees, etc., are being placed in many
flower stores for the personal con-
venience of cus-tomers and have
brought no reasons for regret. Per-

COBSAOES FOB ALL.
"Sweet peas are so common," said
the society lady, as she considered the
question of a simple corsage to wear to
her club that afternoon; "but orchids
are so expensive," she added under her
breath, with the "so" in italics. She
was a happy lady when she wore the
fine looking corsage of pansies her flo-
rist made up for her, and received the
compliments of her friends at the club
that afternoon on the "sweet" ar-
rangement. And her husband had no
reason to grumble when he saw the bill.
A pansy corsage, especially when made
up of fine flowers two and three inches
across, is an extremely fine decoration
for the society lady, when it is made
by a florist who takes pains. Just how
fine one may be can be seen from that
shown in the illustration on this page.
This particular one was finished with
shaded green ribbon and a violet cord.
But if, for perhaps a more important
occasion, the lady had wanted some-
thing really fioie, or her husband had
"loosened up" to give her a token of
his regard, the florist might have sent
something of orchids like the corsage
shown on this page. Then, indeed, she
would have been a happy lady to have
such, an excellent florist. The corsage
shown herewith has in it — in addition
to the orchids — valley and adiantuni,
and is finished with tasseled ribbon on
the ends of which are embroidered lilies
of the valley.
Both of the accompanying illustra-
tions show work of the ■ class in floral
arrangement at the University of Illi-
nois, displayed at its recent exhibit at
Urbana.
SUNDAY CLOSING.
A Personal Matter.
For years and years The Review has
told its readers that the retail end of
the flower b|pines8 cllght well shut up
shop one day in sefen. Already much
progress has been made in the direc-
tion of Sunday cloaing and this year
there is promise of the custom becoming
almost general, as a wave of interest
in the proposition is sweeping through
other lines of business and helping to
convince florists.
Not all agree, but Sunday closing
really is a personal matter. Some flo-
rists are so located that Sunday is the
best day in the week for them. Others,
like most of the downtown retailers in
large cities, are so situated that Sun-
day sales never have amounted to
enough to pay the boss' carfare to the
shop. There are all degrees between.
In almost every large city there are
stores that never open on Sunday un-
less, perhaps, to deliver some important
funeral work, others that open for part
of the day and still others that are
open all day. It is a matter of locality
and sometimes the localities are not far
apart.
Hours Are One's Own Making.
If a florist can do more business on
Sunday than he can on some other day
of the week the unorthodox idea would
be to go ahead and do it; he can do
as the grocers do in many towns and
shut up shop Thursday afternoon be-
cause it is inconvenient to do so on
Saturday.
But with the average man in any line
the hours of business largely are a mat-
ter of his own making — he can build
up a business on the plan of the all-
night restaurant or he can work it up
on the basis of reasonable business
hours. It is the same with Sunday.
One can educate his trade to expect him
to be on the job at every unseemly hour
or he can educate the neighbors to buy
their flowers at such hours as the seller
may set. It 's all a matter of habit. It
may take a little more time to build up
a sixty-nine hours per week business
than it does one that consumes eighty-
nine to ninety-eight hours per week of
somebody 's life, but when built a short-
hours business is infinitely better worth
while.
Best Methods Win Trade.
And there is this further fact that is
worth thinking about: Business is not
lost by the man who keeps decent week-
day hours and closes Sunday. The man
with strength enough t6 lead in this
direction is almost sure also to do other
things better than the competitor who
thinks it necessary to keen open long
hours seven days a week. Tliere may be
the occasional loss of the sale of a 50-
cent bouquet, but when any consider-
able purchase is to be made the people
will find a way to get to the better
man.
Florists, however, are not the only
ones who have thought it necessary to
be open Sunday. In many towns the
clothiers do it, in some the grocers open
for half a day, and there are a few
fair-sized cities in which,J.he retail sec-
tion of the business people scarcely
know one day from another. It is the
general movement toward shorter hours
and six-day weeks, in some states now
required by law, that is arousing the
retailing florists to direct their thoughts
in the same direction. Everybody has
recognized the desirability of shorter
hours — it has been only the fear of los-
ing business that has held so many
back.
Perhaps it will interest some readers
to know that The Eeview has for sev-
eral years found it possible to let its
entire force of employees have a Satur-
day half holiday winter and summer
alike, in spite of what others in the
same line think necessary to require of
their help. If anything has been lost
by it, it has not been apparent.

STORE TREBLED BUSINESS.
Two years ago the Mclntyre Floral
Co., of Nashville, Tenn., then known as
Mclntyre Bros., opened a store, which
in arrangement and design was the most
up-to-date in that part of the country.
Since the opening the company's busi-
ness has rapidly increased, and the
records show that in the last eighteen
months it has grown to three times its
previous size.
This is the more remarkable because
the concern is by no means a young one.
In 1862 Daniel Mclntyre, Sr., who had
received his training as a gardener and
florist in Edinburgh, Scotland, and then
came to America to apply it, established
a business in Nashville, which included
market gardening and the growing of
flowers and ornamental shrubbery. He
was a master hand with hardy orna-
mentals and landscape work, and so
never built up so large a cut flower busi-
ness as others who gave most of their
efforts to that line. Mr. Mclntyre served
in the confederate army and while im-
prisoned in Nashville at one time was
lamed by an accident.
Upon his death in 1913 his four sons
succeeded him. All were trained in the
business and each took charge of a
separate department. Daniel is foreman
at the old range, where William also has
headquarters. Thomas has charge of
the range built two years ago, where
most of the cut flowers are grown. The
older establishment is devoted largely
to shrubbery and bedding plants. Hugh
has charge of the store. The combina-
tion of these four makes the business a
strong one.
The production of new, improved va-
rieties of plants is a work of much in-
terest to the members of this concern.
This season they introduced the new
geranium, Nashville, and a new vinca
at their range is the best variegated-
leaved bedding plant I have seen for a
long time. F. B.
LARGE LOSSES FROM HAIL.
Even if there were no calendar hang-
ing on the wall, the editor of The Re-
view could tell the time of year from
his daily mail. Spring is here, and
hail storms are inflicting their annual
losses upon greenhouse owners in all
parts of the country. Each day brings
the record of some grower's loss and a
photograph showing the destruction
wrought by the storm. Were room
given to each one of these photographs,
the readers of The Review would see

but little else as illustrations at this
season, and it is for this reason only
that each one is reluctantly put aside.
Frans O. Santheson, manager of the
Roswell Floral Co., at Roswell, N. M.,
lost about one-fourth of his glass in the
hail storm of May 26. The loss, how-
ever, is covered by insurance in the Flo-
rists' Hail Association.
In the terrific storm that struck Mil-
waukee and vicinity May 31, F. P. Dil-
ger, of 418 Pryor avenue, Milwaukee,
was one of those who suffered most. Be--'
tween 7,000 and 8,000 lights in his
houses were broken and his outside
stock was badly injured.
The fact that the houses in the range
of Hamilton & Plummer, at Kewanee,
HI., run east and west made the loss of
this firm much larger than that of those
whose houses run north and south. The
storm came from the east and as it
swept over the house broke the glass on
both sides almost completely.
The Florists' Hail Association meets
losses promptly. It is a purely mutual
organization of greenhouse owners, run
at nominal cost, and every florist not in
position to stand a loss without incon-
venience should be a member. The sec-
retary is .Tohn G. Esler, Saddle River,

THE SMITH MEMORIAL.
A Call for Funds.
As the committee appointed at the
Chicago convention, with regard to the
erection of a suitable memorial to the
late Willianx Robertson Smith in the na-
tional capital, has been, continuously at
work since appointment and has decided
that the monument should take a form
useful as well as ornamental, in the
shape of a memorial building to the
father of our charter, the committee
therefore asks that you now send in
your subscriptions, addressed to William
F. Gude, chairman, 1214 F street, N. W.,
Washington, D. C, so that the memorial
may take tangible form at the earliest
possible date.
The committee trusty that your con-
tribution will be a liberal one for thia
worthy cause, in order that the florista
of the United States may show to the
world their appreciation of a man who
did so much to promote and uplift our
favorite calling.
Wm. F. Gude, Chairman,
Richard Vincent, Jr.,
Harry Papworth,
J. A. Valentine,
John K. M. L. Farquhar.
A Note From Mr. Oude.
In sending the above Mr. Gude writes
in part: "The scheme is now definitely
settled to have something praetieable
and useful erected to Mr. Smith, rather
than a stone monument, which Mr. Smith
himself never cared for. The committee
is extremely desirous of obtaining sub-
scriptions. The chairman of the com-
mittee will be pleased to receive them,
no matter how small, and will give
proper receipt for them and place the
money in bank at four per cent interest
until such time that the memorial can be
erected or contract awarded. The com-
mittee has hopes of receiving some large
subscriptions, but feels that the florista
of the United States should show their
interest first, before the large contribu-
tions are called for."

The Florists' Review
June 25. 1914.
COXTBOXNE D'OR NOT PINK.
One of the curiosities of the recent
exhibition of the American Peony So-
ciety that attracted attention when re-
ported in The Review for June 18 was
the fact that a white variety, Couronne
d'Or, was awarded first prize in a class
for light pink. It appears to have been
purely a slip oh the part of the judges,
since William A. Peterson, the owner of
the vase of flewers, explains the inci-
dent as follows:
"The vase of Couronne d'Or was in-
tended to be with the whites. Because
of the cramped space and the impossi-
bility of keeping visitors from walking
between the vases, it is probable that
someone knocked the entry number off
and got them mixed."
Mr. Peterson probably was more sur-
prised than anyone else that a vase of
a white variety should take first prize in
a class for which he had not entered it,
but it was a matter of no consequence to
him, as he secured all three premiums
in one of the classes concerned and first
and second in the other. This is the
showing as reported:
Fifty blooms, white, double, one variety —
Peterson Nursery, first, on Avalanche; Peter-
Bon Nursery, second, on Baroness Schroeder;
Vaiighan's Seed Store, third, on M. Dupont.
Fifty blooms, liglit pink or pink and cream,
doable, one variety— Peterson Nursery, first, ou
Coaronne d'Or; Peterson Nursery, second, on
Albert Crousse; Peterson Nursery, third, on
Eugenie Verdler.
It should be remembered that the
Peony Society permits an exhibitor to
make an unlimited number of entries in
any class.
BOSTON PEONY SHOW.
The annual peony exhibition of the
Massachusetts Horticultural Society
June 20 and 21 came just a week too
late, but there was a good display never-
theless, principally of late varieties,
which nearly filled the main exhibition
hall. For twenty named varieties there
was a good competition. A. H. Fewkes
took first prize, followed by James Mc-
Kissock and T. C. Thurlow's Sons Co.
For ten varieties, three blooms of each,
T. C. Thurlow's Sons Co. led; A. W.
Preston, J. L. Smith, gardener, being
second, and James McKissock third. A.
H. Fewkes had the finest specimen
bloom, James McKissock being second.
T. C. Thurlow 's Sons Co. had the only
collection of twelve singles, showing a
charming lot. The same exhibitor also
was first for twelve Japanese singles.
For six varieties double, C. 8. Minot,
James McKissock and T. C. Thurlow's
Sons Co. won in the order named. James
McKissock had the best six rose pink
varieties, and T. C. Thurlow's Sons Co.
the finest salmon pink, also crimson.
For twenty-five white Or blush, the
prizes went to Sw F. ' Chase, A. H.
Fewkes and Martin- Stollivan, gardener
to Willialn Whitman. T. C. Thurlow's
Sons Co.- took first and second for
twenty-five pink or roee, third going to
James McKissock. T. C. Thurlow's
Sons Co. also won for twenty-five red or

For twelve named sorts by non-com-
mercial growers, first went to C. S.
Minot, second to Martin Sullivan and
third to J. L. Smith. Mr. Sullivan was
first for twelve pink and twelve white,
also being" first and second for twelve
red or crimson.
Apart from the competitive classes
there were many excellent exhibits.
The Wellesley Nurseries llad a fine dis-
play of named peonies. There were also
large displays from T. C. Thurlow's
Sons Co., J. K. Alexander, Martin Sul;
livan, J. L. Smith and A. H. Fewkes.
Farquhar & Co. received a silver medal
for an imposing display of peonies, and
C. S. Minot a similar reward for Peony
Mrs. C. S, Minot, also honorable men-
tion for Peony E. T. Jackson.
Martin Sullivan had a collection of
hybrid perpetual roses and Kalmia lati-
folia, the Lowthorpe School of Horti-
culture had sweet williams. Eastern
Nurseries a fine collection of herbaceous
plants, Old Town Nurseries" a splendid
lot of herbaceous plants, Mrs. E. M.
Gill and Mrs. M. W. Chadbourne general
displays. The Mount Desert Nurseries
received a silver medal for a collection
of herbaceous plants, among which
eremuri loomed up prominently.
Jackson Dawson received honorable
mention for Baby Dawson rose, also for
a collection of seedling roses. Wheeler

THE WEALTH AND THE WASTE.
When B. H. Farr, president of the
American Peony Society, had reached
Rochester on his way east after the
Chicago meeting he found time to dic-
tate to a stenographer the substance of
the extemporaneous address delivered
at the Art Institute business session
and summarized in The Review for June
11. One thought is commended spe-
cially to the growers of peony blooms
for market, and to the retail dealers. It
is as follows:
"It is unfortunate that as a cut
flower, commercially, the peony is in
most localities considered only as a
Memorial day proposition. Millions of
them are sold at high prices before, and
millions almost wasted after, that day.
No flower k^eps better When properly
handled, and no flower makes so fin» a
show for the cost as the peony fpr all
decorative effects, and tfeere .^eems to
be no good ret^OB^ , wjhiy it slibuld not be

BOSES AT MINKEAFOLIS.
A short report on the conditipn of
our Lyndale park rose garden at Min-
neapolis June 15 may be of interest.
We have had splendid growing weather
all spring, but just now have had a lit-
tle too much rain and not enough sun-
shine. Nevertheless, our plants are still
free from mildew and in perfect health.
They will be at their best June 21.
We have only two exhibits in our
A. R. S. test garden, namely, the two
climbers, Dazzling Red* and Bridal
Wreath, by W. A. Manda, and the new
H. R. rose, Defiance, by C. Kress. They
are all doing well. The climbers are in
bloom and Defiance shows promising
buds.
Trim the plants to a height of about
twelve inches, pot them in 5-inch or
6-inch pots, according to size of plants,
and plunge in a frame in the ground to
the tops of the pots. After they have
started to make growth, give the pots
a covering of some well decayed, short
manure, preferably old hotbed manure,
to keep the soil moist and to prevent
the Bun from beating down on ihe soil.
In the "wtrrter the plants can be covered
where they «*e, cither with glass or
boards, to prevent llHiai ^from freezing
too hard. In spring they ^an fee taken
into the greenhouse, where they -should
make a nice growth and make good,
salable plants in about eight or ten
weeks, according to the temperature
kept in the houses. W. J. K.

DISEASES INNUMERABLE.
[Extracts from a paper by Cbas. B. Weaver,
of Konks, Pa., read before the Lancaster County
Florists' aub, June 18.]
What the grower of asters in this sec-
tion generally strives for is early flow-
ers, early enough to reach the market
in advance of those grown in more
northern and cooler sections, where cli-
matic conditions are to some extent
more favorable.
More of Queen of the Market are
grown here than of the later strains;
this variety produces long stems and
fair sized flowers early, if seed is sown
early under glass. I have tried sowing
seed of this variety quite late, but with
not so good results, as the stems do not
get length enough, owing to the shorter
period of growth.
One serious drawback with this va-
riety is its tendency to stem-rot; in
fact, I venture to say that where stem-
"Wt iuis once shown itself among Queen
^ ^he Market asters, you will never
be ftee from it thereafter. This state-
ment may be too sweeping, but let me
relate my own experimee. Eight years
ago we planted. this vaniefy tk ^ ^ell
prepared piece of ground, gS^ra ^fc»
growing plants the best of attention
and obtained a fair crop. Possibly ten
per cent of the plants showed signs of
stem-rot, but this fact did not alarm
us to a great extent, as I had a fair
amount of land and could plant in new
ground for a number of years. How-
ever, last summer, seven years later, wo
prepared this ground again for growing
asters, plowed the preceding fall, fer-
tilized it abundantly and limed it early
in the spring, and immediately before
planting time harrowed in a quantity of
high-grade fertilizer.
Appearance of Disease.
The plants were set out early, started
growth at once and grew well for four
or five weeks. Then the disease began
to appear. Let me explain that the ex-
tent of my patch eight years/ago was
about one-third the size of Jlast sum-
mer's patch, but on that onekhird the
disease made its first appearanije and on
that particular part not five per cent of
the plants lived to maturity and the
flowers from these few plants were
scarcely of a marketable quality. '
It is my opinion after this experience
that in preparing this piece of ground
JuKB 25, 1914.
Tk Florists' Review

for planting the harrow distributed this
infectious disease throughout the entire
patch, and while the one-third men-
tioned was practically a total failure
the other two-thirds was only infected
so as to cause a loss of forty to fifty
per cent of the crop. It is a positive
fact that where you have this disease
on high ground, lower ground will soon
be infected by overflowing water.
While this disease is particularly dis-
astrous among Queen of the Market, I
am not sure that all other varieties will
prove immune; in fact, I have noticed
it to a limited extent in Early Paris
White and Early Wonder. The later
varieties seem to have a stronger
growth and are more able to resist this
disease, for which, up to this writing, I
know of no remedy.
Yellows.
Yellows is another disease of which
little seems to be known and is easily
recognized in its earlier stages by a
branch here and there showing a light
^reen or yellowish cast. It spreads
from plant to plant as conditions seem
to favor. I have experimented along
different lines with this disease and
have practiced pulling out every, plant
which showed the slightest sign of it,
but finally concluded that it was labor
in vain and discontinued it. I have also
sprayed with different sulphur solutions,
but could never be positive of any bene-
ficial results. We now simply let it run
its course, during which time anywhere
from five to as high as twenty-five per
cent of the plants are a total failure.
This disease accounts for the fact that
after we are through cutting for the
season, the patch generally has the ap-
pearance of being only half picked
over; in fact, I have had persons not
acquainted with aster growing and its
troubles ask me why I let so many
flowers go to waste. This disease, un-
like stem-rot, does not seem to infect
the ground; it seems to me to be a
general clogging up of the pores, or sap
courses, of the plant. Some persons
have an idea that overfeeding is respon-
sible for it, but for this statement I
bave thus far no proof. I have seen
plants badly infected in both poor soil
and well-fed soil. I, on different occa-
sions, attributed this disease to the
sting of the tarnish bug, but have been
unable to prove it; in fact, I have seen
plants badly infected where this bug
was and where it was not present.
The Tamish Bug.
Even excusing this bug from respon-
sibility for this disease, it causes trou-
ble enough for the aster grower in this
section, as a plant once badly bitten by
it is practically worthless. The bite or
sting seems to be poisonous and dwarfs
or stunts the plant. Generally speak-
ing, one will get some flowers from
these dwarfed plants, but of an in-
ferior quality. We have tried various
methods to eradicate this pest — air-
slaked lime, whale oil soap, kerosene
emulsion, tobacco extract, tobacco dust,
moth balls, etc. All of these frighten
off or kill some of the bugs, providing
you can persuade the bug to remain un-
til you get the remedy on him. These
flies, or bugs, are up and away almost on
your approach or, if they do remain, are
so hidden under the broad top leaves
that it is next to impossible to find them
or get the spray on them, owing to the
protecting leaves. The extremely early
a«ters are not affected by this bug, as

Establishment of H. B. Brubeck, at Rockvilie, lad.
the pests do not make their appearance
until June 10 to 15, to any great extent.
' The Black Beetle.
Another pest so well known that it
seems useless to mention it here is the
black beetle. When they first appear
we hand-pick them or use a dipper
about six inches in diameter, in which
we pour an inch or two of kerosene", tak-
ing the dipper in one hand and a short
cane stake in the tJther, extending the
dipper under the bugs and jarring them
off with the stake into the oil. This
proves quite satisfactory. Later, when
the bugs become so numerous that to
combat them seems almost hopeless, we
resort to Paris green. This must be used
with caution, owing to its tendency to
burn the foliage.
A few words in regard to planting.
We plant in beds, six rows to the bed,
and set the plants one foot each way,
allowing every seventh row for a walk
one way. We cultivate entirely with
hand barrows and try to go over the
ground after each rain, if possible, so as
to have the benefit of a dry or dust
mulch. I do not try to irrigate, on ac-
count of the fact that I do not have
water enough at my disposal.
IN A SMALL INDIANA TOWN.
Four feet of glass for every member
of the town's population is the ratio
of H. B. Brubeck's range to the num-
ber of people in the town of Rockville,
Ind., where it is located, and he is the
only florist in the place. These figures
may interest the members of the trade
in small towns who are from time to
time estimating how large or small a
place should be for the support of a
florist. Of course, Mr. Brubeck, in com-
mon with every other country florist,
depends to some extent on the sur-
rounding towns for his business, so that
the inhabitants of Rockville are not
such heavy flower-buyers as they seem
at first sight.
The range of Mr. Brubeck, which is
shown in the accompanying illustration,
contains 10,000 square feet of glass and
the town of Eockville has a population
of about 2,500. Mr. Brubeck reports a
good business and steady growth. The
spring trade, he says, has been better
than in former years and Memorial day
business was a record-breaker.
DAVIS TO BUILD IN INDIANA.
What is said to be the largest single
order for commercial greenhouses ever
placed has been given this week by
J. W. Davis, to the Lord & Burnham
Co. It calls for an entirely new estab-
lishment to be erected at Terre Haute,
Ind.
Those who are acquainted with the
size and success of the operations of
J. W. Davis, some of whom have known
that he has for several months been
looking for a .suitable location for an
establishment east of Chicago, will be
specially interested in the announce-
ment that last week he closed the pur-
chase of sixty-five acres of land at
Terre Haute, admirably located for side
track and shipping facilities, and will
proceed at once with the erection of
the new range. The first order calls for
eight detached greenhouses each 76x600
feet, iron frame, and two propagating
houses each 25x200 feet, with curved
eaves. The contract has been given to
the Lord & Burnham Co., through George
Sykes, manager of the Chicago office.
The type of construction is to be simi-
lar to the houses erected by the Lord &
Burnham Co. for the J. W. Davis Co.
and the Davis Floral Co. at Bettendorf,
near Davenport, la. The new estab-
lishment is to be financed and managed
by a separate corporation, the J. W.
Davis Co., of Indiana. The houses,
which are expected to be completed in
the early autumn, are to be used first
of all for cucumbers and tomatoes, but
Mr. Davis has expressed his intention
of eventually turning much of his glass
to cut flowers and pot plants, the Davis
Floral Co. having been organized as an
Iowa corporation to make a start in
this direction.
The success which has attended J. W.
Davis since he withdrew from partner-
ship with his successful brothers, who
grow vegetables at Aurora, Morrison
and Streator, 111., starting for himself
in Iowa, has been phenomenal. After a
thorough investigation of modern green-
house construction, he determined on
big, wide houses, instead of the smaller
houses generally employed by western
vegetable growers. The range he put

600 feet long, three of them forty-three
feet wide, and two sixty -four feet wide.
The service building for the range often
has been spoken of as more resembling
a street railway ^ower plant than
it does the usual greenhouse boiler shed.
That the big houses have justified them-
selves is shown by the fact that the

I THE SMITH GRAVE.
; Visitors to Wadiington find the
graves containing the bodies of Mr.
and Mrs. William Smith, in beautiful
Rock Creek cemetery, nicely trimmed
and planted, through the courtesy of
George W. Hess, superintendent of the
U. S. Botanic Gardens, under the direc-
tion of W. P. Gude, Washington repre-
sentative of the S. A, F. On top of
each grave are Wichuraiana roses, as
Mr. Smith had often expressed a de-
sire to have memorial roses jflanted on
his grave. At the head of each grave a
nice specimen of Anthericum varie-
gatum is planted, and at the foot Cal-
luna vulgaris. Each grave is outlined
Cooler weather, lessening shipments
and a boom in June weddings all have
united in giving a hardening tendency
to the cut fiower market. There has
been little uplift in prices, but the
low level of the last month is probably
the limit in depression and unreasona-
ble quotations. Midsummer can be no
worse.
A fairly good Saturday reduced the
strain on the iceboxes, but prices did
not advance materially, except for the
selected American Beauties. Of outdoor
flowers, especially roses, there is now
no limit to the supply. Bamblers espe-
cially are abundant. Then, too, the
tables are loaded with sweet peas, gla-
dioli, daisies, stocks, feverffcw, coreopsis
and delphiniums.

with a border of Anthericum varie-
gatum and Ophiopogon Jaburan varie-
gatus. The whole makes an effective
setting and quite a contrast to the long
neglected spot. No doubt the memorial
committee, which met in Chicago in
1912, will do what it can to erect some
suitable stone on this beautiful lot,
which is located in one of the most no-
table cemeteries in the United States.
Just a short distance from the Smith
section is the world-famous St. Gau-
dens masterpiece, the ' ' Statue of

of the United States have mausoleums
nearby.

With the closing of the schools the

The ensuing week will see numerous
weddings, which will use up large quan-

funeral work, little will be doing.
Last week we experienced some ex-
ceedingly cold weather for this time of
the year and this prolonged the peony
supply, which otherwise would be gone.
Eoses and carnations are in good sup-
ply, when quality and size are not con-

ley purchased a pretty cottage on the
Canadian border, a few miles east of
Walkerville. Last week E. A. Fetters
purchased a cottage, also on the Cana-

Club Meeting.
The New Orleans Horticultural So-

Wild huckleberry is in big demand
for decorative purposes and the quality
of the material obtained locally has

retained as the name of the concern.
With the advent of summer many
members of the trade are getting the
on the jump last week. The advent of
outdoor roses, however, has cut a deep
swath in the call for cut flowers and
prices are dropping slightly. June wed-
dings have made heavy demands upon
the florists.
Horticultural Society Show.
The annual June exhibition of the
Ehode Island Horticultural Society was
held June 17 in the Mathewson Street
Methodist church. There was an elab'

OBITUARY
FBEIQHT ON CHBISTMAS TBEES.
A complaint against the freight rates
on (christmas trees from points in
Michigan, Wisconsin and Minnesota to
points in Wisconsin, Illinois, Iowa, Ne-
braska, Kansas, Missouri, Oklahoma,
Arkansas and other points in Western
Trunk Line territory has been filed with
the Interstate Commerce Commission by
the Flatten Produce Co., of Green Bay,
Wis., and other western merchants. The
Chicago, Milwaukee & St. Paul and
other railroads were named defendants.
It was said that during the season
1913 the rates were increased by fifty
to 125 per cent over the rates in effect
in 1912 and several seasons before. The
complainants desired the commission to
fix rates for the future that will not ex-
ceed the rates in effect in 1912. It was
furthermore said that in 1906 the mini-
mum weight on carload shipments of
Christmas trees was 20,000 pounds, and
between that time and 1912 the mini-
mum was increased at various times un-
til it reached 30,000 pounds. The com-
plainants claimed that a minimum of
over 24,000 pounds for a 36-foot car is
not warranted.

"Alothers' day, an innovation from
America, was celebrated at the Central

quested to write to or visit his mother,
or if she were dead to place white flow-
ers on her grave."
Providence, R. I. — An unmanageable
automobile climbed the curb and
knocked off a corner of the building

der the show window were loosened,
but the plate-glass fortunately did not

Charles Fnieh, Sr.
Charles Frueh, Sr., head of the firm
of Charles Frueh & Sons, and in the
trade at Saginaw, Mich., for over forty
years, died suddenly Thursday, June
18, at his new home, on Genesee avenue,
where the greenhouses of the concern
are situated.
Although he had suffered from stom-
ach trouble more or less for some time,
Mr. Frueh appeared in his usual health
when he arose at 4 o'clock Thursday
morning, according to habit, and he
was cutting roses at 6. He began to
feel imwell during the morning and lay
down. Medical aid was called, but Mr.
Frueh died while the physicians were
examining him, the immediate cause
being heart trouble.
He was born July 6, 1848, at Dies-
heim, Germany, and came to the United
States in 1872, making his home in Sag-
inaw, where he was married in Feb-
ruary, 1876.
After working in the Dieckmann
greenhouses, the first to be established
in Saginaw, he embarked in business
for himself in 1875, on Hoyt avenue,
and was so successful, with the help of
his sons, that the present large plant
on Genesee avenue was built.
Mr. Frueh was a member of the Ma-
sonic body, being connected with lodge
No. 77, with the Shrine and with other
branches of the order. He was an Elk,
a Maccabee, and belonged to the Ar-
beiter Society.
There are surviving his wife and five
children, all living in Saginaw: Charles
Frueh, Jr., John A. Frueh, Jennie M.
Frueh, Lydia C. Frueh and Helen L.
Frueh. The funeral was held Sunday
afternoon, June 21, in the charge of St.
Bernard's Commandery No. 16, Knights
Templar, and the Saginaw-Bay City
Floricultural Society, of which he was
a charter member, attended in a body.
Burial was in Forest Lawn cemetery.
Isaac Kennedy.
For many years one of the best known
florists in northern Ohio, Isaac Kennedy
passed away June 17 at his home at
Cleveland. He had been in poor health
for a number of years.
Mr. Kennedy was born in England of
Scottish parents, March 27, 1864. He
came to America when a young man,
settling in Philadelphia, where he
served in some of the best known estab-
lishments in that section. He removed
to Cleveland in 1901 to take charge of
the rose houses of the J. M. Gasser Co.,
where, in the next four years, he
achieved the reputation of being one of
the most skillful growers in the coun-
try. In 1905 he had accumulated suflB-
cient capital to build a place of his own
in West Park, 0., where he remained in
business until 1910. Mr. Kennedy was
for years an active member of the
Cleveland Florists' Club and served
several terms as its secretary. The
funeral, ,Iune 19, was in charge of Big-
low lodge of Masons, of which he was
a member. Many in the trade were
present and the ' floral tributes were
numerous and beautiful.
John r. Oibbs.
.lohn F. Gibbs, aged 75, one of the
pioneer florists and landscape gardeners
of Allegheny county, Pa., died at his
home, at Pardee, Pa., recently, after an
illness of almost a year. He had only
lived in Pardee one year, having been
in the vicinity of Pittsburgh for thirty
years. He was from England and first
came to this country in 1878, coming to
superintend the landscape work at Gor-
don park, Cleveland. From there h©
went to Pittsburgh and engaged in the
florists' business. He retired a few
years ago to take charge of the North-
side City farm, at Warner, Pa., from
which position he retired in 1912. Ho
is survived by his widow, two sons and
three daughters, all of whom are mar-
ried: William Gibbs, of Pittsburgh;
Sidney, of Sandy Lake, Pa.; Mrs. C.
J. Smith, of Dormont; Mrs. M.
Eine, of Leetsdale, and Mrs. William
D. Faulk, of Dormont. He was a mem-
ber of the United Presbyterian church.

Henry L. Murdock, the veteran florist
of Gardner, Mass., aged 75 years, died
June 9 at. his home, from heart trouble,
after an illness that dated from March
26. .
Mr. Murdock was born in Hubbards-
ton, Mass., May 26, 1839. In 1866 he
was married to Miss Ellen Wilson, of
Hubbardston, and immediately after the
marriage they took up their residence in
Gardner. Forty years ago he established
a florists' business and conducted it
until eleven years ago, when his son,
Fred W. Murdock, assumed the manage-
ment.
Mrs. Murdock died February 19, and
a few weeks later Mr. Murdock suffered
a shock, which resulted in his death, al-
thoff^h he retained his faculties up to
within a month of his death.
Besides his son, Fred W. Murdock, he
leaves a grandson, Robert Murdock, one
sister, Mrs. Albert Mason, of Gardner,
and two brothers, Milo Murdock, of
East Hubbardston, and Alvin S. Mur-
dock, Gardner. The funeral took place
Friday afternoon, .lune 12, with services
by Rev. Burton S. Gilman, of the Con-
gregational church, of which Mr. Mur-
dock was a member. Burial was in
Crystal Lake cemetery.
Qeorge M. Qarland.
While the death of George M. Gar-
land had long been expected, because of
the nature of the illness from which he
suffered, his passing brings keen regret
to those who had admired his many
sterling qualities. To the majority of
the trade he was best known as the in-
ventor and introducer of the iron gutter
that was the first step in taking the
greenhouse out of the class of tempor-
ary structures, but by those who had
the privilege of his personal acquaint-
ance he was admired most of all for his
upright character and absolute honesty
of purpose. It was one of the deplor-
able circumstances that the last year of
his life, when strength was ebbing daily,
should have been saddened by financial
troubles, for, like many others in whom
the inventive genius finds domicile, the
commercial instinct was not highly de-
veloped and he left his practical affairs
largely in other hands, even before fail-
ing health made such a course impera-
tive.
Mr. Garland was born at Des Plaines,
111., in 1864. His is a family of florists.
Sol, Frank and Warren are brothers and
Mrs. Percy Jones is a sister. Mrs. Gar-
land survives, with two sons, Harry
and William.

•Tack and Jill went hunting flowers;
They quit; none were so good as ours.
Because Their Brays Are Bonnie.
A new team of white mules was as-
signed to a Scottish teamster employed

Why He Bushed.
The reading lesson was in progress
and a pupil was reading for the sec-
ond time a thrilling passage about a
woman drowning herself :
"She threw herself into the river.
Her husband, horror-stricken, rushed
to the bank — "
"Tell me," said the teacher, "why
the husband rushed to the bank."
Quick and sharp came the response:
"Please, ma'am, to get money to buy
flowers for the funeral." — Minneapolis
Journal.
Roses for Remembrance.
A tourist recently stopped for a drink
of milk at an Irish cottage. He noticed
on a dresser a brick with a faded red
rose on the top of it.
"Why do you keep these!"
"Sure, sir," was the reply, "there's
memories bangin' about them. Do you
see this big dent in my head? Well, it
was the brick done it, sir."
"But the rose?" asked the tourist.
His host smiled quietly
"The rose, sir, is off the grave of the
man what f Ijrew the brick. ' ' — Southern
Merchant.
Dunbar, Pa. — Although there is not
much left here, as the place was
washed out two years in succession,
what is left is working and Wm. Har-
vey says there is a good demand for
everything at present.
SfMtt Calls, S. D. — Liebl & Hessel
have gone to Chicago to buy the ma-
terial for another greenhouse, which
will be erected in time for fall business.
Xhfty also have purchased a 5-acre tract
of IflMi^ which will be used as a nurs-
ery.
Connersville, Ind. — Charles A. Rieman
believes his advertising copy is more
effective in verse form. It has the ad-
vantage that it is nearly always read
through, as the rhythm and rhyme serve
to carry the reader onward.
Barre, Mass. — Mr. and Mrs. George
R. Simonds observed the fortieth anni-
versary of their marriage May 30. Mr.
Simonds is 62 years old; he entered the
florists' business when he was over 40
and now conducts the Simonds Floral
Co.
Crawfordaville, Ind. — William Parker,
manager of the McDonald Flower Co., is
recovering from the- effects of a snake-
bite, believed to have been inflicted by
a copperhead. The bite was a deep one
and caused his arm to swell to alarming
proportions.
Allenhurst, N. J. — The Allenhurst
Greenhouses report quite good business.
This concern specializes in Japanese
landscape gardening, a style which is
increasing in popularity quite rapidly.
Two houses of Lord & Burnham. con-
struction are being added.
Stoneham, Mass. — S. Kameyana suf-
fered a loss of about $200 when his oil
store set fire to his lodgings at his
greenhouses on Wright street court re-
cently. The owner lost an equal amount,
as the building was damaged in places,
but his loss is covered by insurance.
Milford, N. H. — Howard Carlton, who
has been in the poultry business here
for sixteen years, has left that industry
to become a vegetable grower. He will
erect a greenhouse, 20x100 feet, and
make cucumbers, lettuce and tomatoes
his principal crop the coming year.
Flainwell, Mich. — There is no possi-
bility of early depletion of the supply
of hardy ferns or green sheet moss,
for in this locality there are millions of
ferns and carloads of moss as yet un-
touched. Walter Scott, the local florist,
is planning to pack and ship some of
the stock this season.
Tampa, Fla.— The Knull Floral Co.
has disposed of the second motor car
used for delivery and bought one of
the new trailers, which is attached to
the rear axle of the car by means of
the Bradley shaft snap. This has
proved the most satisfactory delivery
system the company has had, as well as
a great saving in money, as the cost
of the trailer was no more than the
upkeep of the old car for one month.
Yi. R. Reasoner, of the Royal Palm
Nurseries, Oneco, Fla.. was a re(?ent

RESULTS.
We give them. You get them.
We both have them.
Not a few eiubscribers save themselves
the bother of annual renewal by sending
The Review $2, $3, or sometimes $5, in-
stead of the dollar-bill that insures fifty-
two visits of the paper.
The supply of ericas for next season
will be less than in 1914, the weather
this spring having been decidedly unfav-
orable for some of the propagators, with
the result that they lost quantities of
stock.
Boston is such an excellent summer
resort, and so near to many other points
of summer interest, that the S. A. F.
convention is likely to draw more people
from a distance than has been the case
in recent years.
T. C. will find the subject of his in-
quiries treated in The Review from time
to time. It is impossible to send him
the information wanted, as he failed to
give either name or address. All anony-
mous inquiries go into the waste basket.
For years it has been said, by those
who have dealings with many trades, that
of business men few had less concern than
florists in the matter of meeting obliga-
tions when due; that, in fact, florists
appeared to pay no attention to the terms
stated by the seller, or even appeared
ignorant of their meaning. Happily,
much improvement has been noted in the
last year or two. The trade is using
better business methods, and gaining by
them.
A BEAUTIFUL BOOK.
The Minneapolis park commissioners
have for many years issued a superbly
printed and illustrated annual report,
but this year they have beaten their
best previous record, some of the illus-
trations showing the S. A. F. convention
garden being printed in colors. Theo-
dore Wirth, president of the S. A. F. and
superintendent of parks at Minneapolis,
has sent copies of the book to some of
his friends in'lTie trAde.*"
HE KNOWS THE PLACE.
It is becoming general knowledge
that, no matter what a man's needs,
he can get what he wants by using The
Review. Like this:
Please discontinue my Want Ad No. 285. It
nas been very satisfactory and I snail know where
to advertise whenever I want some one In a hurry.
— vV. W. Coles, Kokomo, Ind., June 22, 1914.
AKE YOU IN SYMPATHY?
I wonder why cut flowers live
A long, long time for some,
And then for others seem to shrivel up —
To shrink away and die
Before their time.
'Twould seem the sensitive blossoms know and
feel
A presence that Is kindred to their ow^,
And are thus loath to leave
The silent, sweet companionship
Of one who Is as loath to have them go.
— Chicago Tribune.
PURELY PERSONAL.
Charles E. Meehan, Philadelphia, has
taken his family to Ocean City, N. J.,
for the summer.
Richard Vincent, Jr., says money was
not made to hold, so the other day he
bought each of his three sons a new
automobile apiece.
CHICAGO.
The Great Central Market.
The market is rapidly dropping into
the typical summer state, but it seems
certain that this summer will see the
market much more heavily supplied with
stock than ever before has been the case
in July and August. There cannot be
anjf dull summer season if the stock in
prospect is to be merchandised.
The first part of last week was ac-
tive; it was school closing week in most
of the places where school closings cut
any figure with the flower business.
Also, it was a good week for weddings.
Old hands at the business, however, long
ago learned that school and wedding
work brings business in this market for
the first part of the week, but not for
the latter part. That was the case last
week. The older the week became the
less activity was seen. The present
week is less active to a marked degree,
for the majority of the schools have
closed and the crop of June brides has
been pretty much harvested.
There is an abundant supply of flow-
ers, taking the market as a vvhole. Car-
nations are on the down grade, so far
as quantity and quality are concerned,
but are holding their prices. Growers
are replanting earlier than usual this
year, so that every day sees a reduction
in supply. Beauties are possibly the
most abundant item on the market. Cer-
tain growers have done so well with
summer crops in recent years that this
season a number of other growers timed
their crops to come in during late June.
A big business is being done in Beau-
ties because the stock is at least as good
as other flowers, because the Beauty is a
fairly dependable summer shipper, and
because the supply is so large that every-
body is pushing Beauties. It's the push,
perhaps, that counts for more than any-
thing else.
Some of the growers are cutting few
roses, but a number of important pro-
ducers have planned to take advantage
of the good summer demand that has
been in evidence the last few years.
These growers are now coming into crop
with their early planted houses and are
able to meet a much heavier demand

than is in evidence this week. Pecu-
liarly, nobody seems to be cutting any
quantity of white roses. The wide fluc-
tuations in temperature have resulted in
considerable mildew in the cases of
growers who do not maintain steam and
vigilance, but there are plenty of good
roses of typical summer size. Mrs. Rus-
sell is beginning to be a considerable
factor afad is the finest rose on the mar-
ket. Sunburst also shows up nicely and
has been in special request through
June.
Peonies have been selling well and
will be practically cleaned up this week,
except for one lot the holder of which
usually takes things easy. Easter lilies
are coming in less plentifully and are
selling much better than at any time
since Easter. The special demand for
valley is abating; enormous quantities
liave been sold this month. Cattleyas
are not abundant, but neither are they
in much request, though some super-
latively fine stock is seen. Rubrum
lilies, the poor man 's orchids, are abund-
ant. For a week or more the arrivals of
candidum lilies from Benton Harbor and
other Michigan points have been more
than the market could assimilate. Shasta
daisies are everywhere. Sweet peas are
no longer an important factor. Gladioli
are less plentiful this week, but there is
news of a flood on the way.

Association Meeting.
A. T. Pyfer, secretary of the Cook
County Florists ' Association, states that
there was an attendance of thirty mem-
bers at the June meeting, when the
bowling prizes for the season just closed
were distributed. William Lorman, with
the A. L. Randall Co., was appointed
chairman of the sports committee, in
place of Peter Olsem, who felt that he
does not get into town often enough to
serve. An outing on a lake steamer
was proposed and the matter was placed
in the hands of a committee consisting
of three committee chairmen, as fol-
lows: Paul Klingsporn, of the good of
the club committee; "William Lorman, of
the sports committee, and A. C. Kohl-
brand, of the transportation committee.
A proposition Was presented by the

D. Scott Geddis, an old employee of

Oechslin's houses and those of other
plantsmen and to talk to builders. Not
finding an adequate supply of plants in
their neighborhood, the firm last week
bought five acres of land at Olivette,
Mo., and will put up a modern range
of about 35,000 feet of plant houses as
a starter to back the department pre-
sided over by Mr. Geddis.

The first part of June gave an excel-

Co., according to Arthur Blome, but
sales began to fall oflf with the passing
of the commencements in the north
side schools.
Work of repairing benches and re-
planting is going on at Fred Burmeis-
ter's, 1767 Cemetery drive. A new boiler
has also been installed. -
C, L. Washburn, of Bassett & Wash-
burn, made a business trip to Wheatou

Samuel Graff, the head of the Art

the store at 7 West Monroe street for

There is too much heat for indoor
stock, and the plants in the field have
not quite adjusted themselves to the
change from extremely wet weather to
normal conditions. There is, however,
an abundant supply of gladioli and day
lilies, as a result of the long continued
rains. Sweet peas are a total failure,
as the rust has affected them badly. As
outdoor sweet peas have been the flo-
rists' stand-by at this time in recent
years, they hardly know what to do
since the local carnations have played
out. The stock shipped in is in sleepy
condition as a result of its long ride on
the express cars. Eoses are getting bet-
ter, and vincas and other small stock
meet funeral demands.
Various Notes.
E. Friedrich is planning to put up
two more houses, in order to be able to
supply suflScient stock for his trade,
which is Ijirgely with railroad employees.
Palms are the pride of Chas. Alff &
Co. The stock of this firm runs all the
way from seedlings to specimens 30
years old of Mr. Alff.'s own growing.
Olaf Olson, of the Austin Floral Co.,
followed winter stoek with cantaloupes
in pots and has a splendid crop of much
nicer fruit tlian the field-grown.
F. T. Ramsey & Son have a fine dis-
play of hemerocallis and hollyhocks, to
which the damp weather has given a
truer color than is usual at this season.

The Southwestern Market.
A good deal of activity was displayed
last week by the retailers at the dif-
ferent wholesale markets. Business was
good in school work, weddings and fu-
nerals, but stock was scarce and the
demand greatly exceeded the supply.
Some of the wholesalers can again boast
of clean-up sales. Stock was of poor
quality, except valley, Easter lilies and
gladioli, which seemed to have the de-
mand. The prices of gladioli advanced
from 4 cents to 6 cents June 22. The
supply of carnations is large, but the
warm weather has got the best of them,
for most of them are small. There are
some excellent Shasta daisies and corn-
flowers. Koses are poor and scarce,
with short stems. Unless rain comes
soon, outdoor stock will be of little
value, as all stock in the fields is suf-
fering greatly. Idttl« business is
looked for from now en, as the summer

encountered in imperfect refrigeration.
The interior lining, of either opal glass, bevel plate mirror

would quickly pay for United Cooling Equipment. And then — no more
withering and shrinking, no more losses — but better blooms at better prices,
and a full margin of profit from your entire .yield. Many progressive florists

PHILADELPHIA.
The Eastern Market.
The change noted in the last lines of
the market report of a week ago is more
evident today than it was then. There
is a fair demand, at times reaching to
brisk, for good stock. The supply of
poor flowers has been cut down so that
conditions are easier. Peonies are on
the wane; the stock that comes out of
cold storage in good shape is in de-
mand and will not last much longer.
Valley has been in such heavy request
as to be short of requirements on sev-
eral days. Roses are selling moderately
well when of quality, white especially
so. There are few Kaiserins in the
market. Carnations from out of town
are excellent, but the local stock is
rarely good. Easter lilies are recover-
ing from their two months' depression.
Larkspurs and gladioli are important
decorative flowers. Sweet peas are
plentiful and useful when they have
good stems. Three kinds of cattleyas
and one dendrobium give variety to the
orchids. Outdoor flowers are cheap;
perhaps cornflower is the most useful.
The
The Club Outing,
third annual field day of the
Philadelphia Florists' Club, held at
Schuetzen park Monday, June 22, proved
a great success. There were over 250
persons present to enjoy the games,
dinner, music and dancing. The
weather, though showery in the morn-
ing, cleared in the afternoon. Athletic
events occupied the afternoop, and after
a good dinner the evening was given

nation and commencement business,
which this year was quite satisfactory.
Wedding work continues fairly plenti-
ful, but is on the wane, and the florists
are now facing the heaviest part of the
annual summer slump. The social sea-
son has been something of a disappoint-
ment this year, although not more so
than was predicted by several of the
florists prior to the last presidential in-
auguration. The business of this year
has not been of the best and there cer-
tainly is much room for improvement in
this city.
Various Notes.
F. S. Good, formerly in the employ
of J. S. Nicholas, New York, and at
one time employed by Boston florists, is
now with F. H. Kramer, at the store
at 916 F street.
William F. Gude and his brother,
Adolphus Gude, spent last week in Con-
necticut and New York, having gone to
the former state to act as judges at the
Hartford show and to visit a number of
growers in that vicinity. On the return
trip they will be the guests of a number
of growers in New York and on the
Jersey shore.
William Plumb, superintendent of
floriculture: of the Panama-Pacific Ex-
position, was a visitor here last week.
While in town Mr. Plumb visited a num-
ber of stores and told of what was to be
done in the way of displays of flowers
in San Francisco.
The burning of a pile of rubbish and
brush on the premises of J. H. Small, at
Fourteenth street and Rhode Island ave-
nue, northeast, necessitated the calling
out of the fire engines, although the
blaze was extinguished before it could
do much damage.
Although it was Fathers' day in
Washington, June 21, it was hardly
noticeable and no flowers were worn in
honor of the provider of the home, liv-
ing or dead, and it was not found neces-
sary to increase the price of flowers
under the law of supply and demand.

The Market.
After the middle of June, business
usually slackens a little, but so far we
are kept quite busy. Weddings are still
numerous, with a good many orders
ahead, while the commencement and
graduation exercises are still in order.
There has also been a good deal of
funeral work, which has used a lot of
outdoor roses, etc. There has been a
long spell of dry weather; plants are
drying up fast and much damage is be-
ing done. There is an abundance of
outdoor flowers, but they are small and
short-stemmed. The indoor stock is
much more satisfactory. There has
been a deluge of roses, chiefly pinks and
reds. Street venders have been offering
them at give-away prices. Carnations
are soft and sleepy and are losing col-
or; these, too, have been sold at 10
cents per dozen on the streets. Eoses
of the better grade are arriving in fine
condition, but, owing to the weather,
they open too readily. American Beau-
ties are of good color and sell fairly
well. Other red roses also have sold
well. Sunbursts seem to be gaining
ground and always sell satisfactorily.
Taft roses are small, but usually clear
well.
Sweet peas are the popular flowers
for corsage work at this season and
large quantities are disposed of daily.
They are, of good quality, but are in-
clined to be shorter in stem. Home-
grown valley is of fine quality, but
shipments from outside are the main
dependence. Easter lilies are not over-

plentiful, but there is little demand for
them. Larkspurs, irises, Canterbury
bells, snapdragons and bachelor's but-
tons all add to the display. The supply
of green goods is normal. Large quan-
tities of dagger ferns are brought in by
local men. Bedding stock is still re-

just about cleared.
Various Notes.
Mr. and Mrs. J. E. Sambrook, of
Sambrook Bros., Troy, N. Y., were
among the Knights Templar who were
in convention here last week. Mr. Sam-
brook visited the trade and expressed
himself much pleased with business con-
ditions here and with our beautiful city.
H. B. Stringer spent the week end at
White City, Summerville, being enter-
tained by Mr. and Mrs. W. Judson.
George T. Boucher has added to his
equipment a large auto truck, made in
Buffalo, which will undoubtedly be of
great service to him. He has handled
several good sized decorations recently
and store work has also been good. His
business is steadily increasing.
The florists opposite Mount Hope
cemetery have been doing large busi-
ness in the last few weeks. Their cut
flower trade for Saturday and Sunday
is enormous. They have also been kept
busy with their bedding stock, whifeh
has been excellent this season.
The second and third floors of the
building in which J. B. Keller Sons are
located have been rebuilt and a most
artistic frontage has been added, which
greatly improves the appearance of the
store.
Harry Merritt's cut of Delight and
White Wonder carnations has been
highly satisfactory this season. The De-
lights are now much smaller and of a pale

Harry E. Bates is enjoying a four

members of the Chamber of Commerce,

The Viek & Hill Co., at Barnard,
N. Y., report having had the largest
sale of plants in the history of the
company, having almost cleared every-
thing in the bedding line.
The Lord & Burnham Co. is doing
good business. Local orders are stead-
ily arriving. Out-of-town orders booked
recently include four iron-frame houses,
30x174, for P. S. Randolph, Vernon, Pa.;
one house, 40x183, for T. C. Hewlett,
Irondequoit, N. Y., and two iron-frame
houses, 22x100, for Schwerdt & Berner,
Forks, N. Y. The boiler business also
is exceptionally good.
Crosman Bros, had a unique window
decoration last week in honor of the
Knights Templar. It comprised a flag
and emblem made entirely of seeds of
various colors. It was certainly a work
of art and well worthy of special men-
tion.

James Vick's Sons say their store
trade is keeping up well, considering
the lateness of the season. The ex-
cessive drought has kept them back in
setting out plants, but the fine rain
June 19 has made it possible to put on
three large forces of planters. They
are planting a larger acreage than ever,
including seventy-five acres of asters
for seed purposes. The large bed of
pansies at Highland park, from Vick's
•seeds, attracts large crowds. H. J. H.

BOSTON.
The Market.
The week closing June 20 proved the
best the market has had for a long
time. Between class days, school grad-
uations, weddings and outdoor fetes
there was a genuine briskness in trad-
ing, especially June 18 and 19, more
resembling a good Memorial day busi-
ness than anything seen in many weeks.
There were no fancy prices, but the
clean-up was exceptionally good. The
present week opens with less activity,
and, as class days and graduations are
over, there is less to buoy up the mar-
ket. Koses cleaned up well last week.
There are few fancy flowers, the bulk
being short-stemmed. Beauties are
abundant and sell cheaply. Some nice
Taft, Kaiserin and other summer roses
are arriving. Sunburst is pale, and
other yellows have a bleached appear-
ance. Killarney Brilliant is proving
quite popular; so are Hadley and Rus-
sell.
Carnations vary from 50 cents to $2
per hundred and are poor in quality.
Many growers are throwing out their
crops. Sweet peas are druggy. Valley
has been selling well. Blue cornflowers
are hard to sell; so are snapdragons and
stocks. Mrs. Francis King and America
are the leading gladioli and have sold
well of late. There also has been an
abundance of the small-flowered varie-
ties and Spanish iris. The latter now
comes from outdoors. Peonies are near-
ing the end. Lilies have been a drug.
Callas are about over. Not many good

Club Ladies' Night.
There was an attendance of 225 at
the club ladies' night at Horticultural
hall, June 16. A small admission charge
prevented the overcrowding sometimes
seen at these gatherings and rendered
the meeting the more enjoyable. One
new member was elected at the short
business session held. Of the entertain-
ers of the evening, James Singer, a
Scotch soloist, and the Misses Jennie
and Nellie Irving, in Scotch dances,
were enthusiastically encored. A first-
class collation was served by a well
known firm of caterers in the large hall,
following which dancing was enjoyed
until midnight, nearly everyone seem-
ing to trip the light fantastic. Presi-
dent Kennedy, during the evening,
called the attention of all present to
the coming • S. A. F. convention and
asked each and all to act as an enter-
tainment committee and make it as
pleasant as possible for all who may
attend.
The annual club picnic will this year
be held at the time of the S. A. F. con-
vention, in conjunction with the sports
being arranged for that occasion. A
seashore location is favored by some,
but the identity of the club and the

Various Notes.
William H. Elliott is cutting a fine
lot of Beauty, Kaiserin, Taft and other
summer roses at his Brighton establish-
ment. Mr. Elliott has leased his Park
street salesrooms and will probably lo-
cate in the wholesale cut flower center.
A. E. Walsh, a popular salesman at
the Boston Flower Exchange, who han-
dles flowers from the Halifax Garden
Co. and from W. Jurgens, Newport,
E. I., was married June 20 to Miss Ger-
trude McLean, formerly bookkeeper for
William Sim, of Cliftondale. The
young couple have the hearty wishes
of many friends for a long and happy
married life.
Thomas Roland, at his Revere estab-
lishment, now picks one and one-half
tons of tomatoes daily. He still has a
fine cut of roses there.
William Sim had the misfortune to
sprain an ankle June 15, but is improv-
ing and hopes to be able to attend the
sweet pea show in New York. His to-
matoes are coming into crop nicely.
The Boston Cut Flower Co. had a
busy time last week with class, gradua-
tion and wedding orders. June 17 they
had orders, among much other business,
for fifteen shower bouquets, and the
force was kept on the jump the whole
week.
The annual sweet pea show of the
Massachusetts Horticultural Society oc-
curs July 10 and 11. Twenty-seven
classes are allotted to sweet peas.

He has had some large orders which

Charles E. Evans is cutting extra fine

geas. He is using a new Premier road-

There are no fancy prices, but clear-
ances were decidedly better. David

pean trip..
The convention garden is receiving

The Market,
The weather was ideal last week and
business excellent in all branches.
Counter trade was unusually good and
wedding, commencement and funeral
work kept up fairly well. The warm
weather has brought an abundance of
outdoor flowers into the market. Span-
ish iris, peonies, pyrethrums and daisies
have been plentiful, but peonies will
soon be at an end, for they are now
beginning to deteriorate. Outdoor sweet
peas have made their appearance and
are excellent in quality. There was a
scarcity of roses last week, so that
prices on these went up. Peonies have
made a good substitute for roses for
graduation bouquets. For corsage work,
sweet peas, valley and orchids were
iised and occasionally roses were pressed
into service. Gift baskets of flowers
are not used so much this season as
in other years. Beauties are fine, con-
sidering the warm weather. Valley is
good, but not overplentiful. Prices on
cattleyas are firm. Sweet peas, of the
Spencer variety, are excellent and in
good demand. Flowering plants are
scarce; a few gloxinias, rhododendrons,
spiraeas and fuchsias are about the only
ones to be had just now.
Asparagus, both Sprengeri and plumo-
9US, is plentiful, as are ferns, smilax and

The Florists' Review
Junk 25, ltl4.
The peas are approaching the critical
period with excellent prospects.
The Holland bulb salesmen have nearly
all completed their canvas and sailed
away. Not one of them would admit
having booked less business than in 1913.
The Eudy-Patrick Seed Co., at Kan-
sas City, Mo., has leased the building at
Ninth and Santa Fe streets, containing
80,000 square feet, from the Western
Grocer Co., for seven years, at $6,000 a
year.
Summing up the talk in the trade, it
appears that 1914 was the banner season
to date on vegetable and flower seeds,
but that on field and grass seeds the
showing was not so good as in several
recent years.
The president of the New York Pro-
duce Exchange has just appointed the
following members as a committee on
seeds, for the ensuing year: William
Jacot, chairman; Marshall H. Duryea,
Ernst Wehncke, 0, W. F. Randolph and
Chas. Wimmer.
The demand for pansy seed increases
steadily. Not only are greater and
greater quantities imported, principally
from Germany, but American pansy spe-
cialists who have worked up first-class
strains steadily are adding to their pro-
duction, while, the number of growers
also is increasing.
It looks as if it may be up to the
growers of sweet pea seed to migrate,
just as did the growers of culinary peas.
The reports on the California crop keep
getting more and more pessimistic until
now there are the moat direful forebod-
ings as the result of failure to control
the aphis. Probably, however, things are
not so black as they are printed; they
seldom are.
Kelway & Son, Langport, England,
have this year received from the United
States government an order for flower
and vegetable seeds totaling in weight
^nearly forty-four tons. This is one of
the largest orders for flower and vegeta-
ble seeds ever received by one firm from
one customer, as it is not composed even
in part of agricultural seeds or of large
seeds, such as peas and beans. Of the
four other European firms which, in ad-
dition to the Langport firm, are this year
favored by the United States govern-
ment with orders for seeds, one is Eng-
lish, two French and one Dutch.
SEED TBADE CONVENTION.
FREE SEEDS CONTINTJE.
History has repeated itself — the con-
ference committee has put back into the
agricultural appropriation bill the pro-
vision for free seeds that was elimi-
nated by the Senate. The appropriation
for this purpose as provided by the
House is restored. The conferees elim-
inate the $12,000 for the encouragement
of bulb growing in this country that
was provided for in the bill as it passed
the Senate. The conference report was
preseoied to both branches of Congress
June 23, but has not yet been adopted.
P.
In Session at Washington.
The thirty-second annual convention
of the American Seed Trade Associa-
tion, which opened at Washington June
23, is perhaps the record meeting of
the organization. Following what gen-
erally has been an exceptionally pros-
perous season, Washington is at the
moment a special point of interest. The
grass seed people have in recent years
been extremely active, almost dominant,
in the affairs of the association, and
only last week the government issued
its latest report on the analysis of sam-
ples of Kentucky bluegrass and redtop
obtained in the open market, showing
that some houses of excellent standing
last season handled extremely poor red-
top. This meeting gives the grass seed
Charles C Maasie.
(President American Seed Trade Association.)
dealers the opportunity to personally
acquaint themselves with the govern-
ment's seed testing laboratories and
Botanist Edgar Brown is keeping open
house. The garden and flower seed peo-
ple who oppose the free distribution of
seeds by the government also have had
a special reason for visiting Washington
at this time. One branch of Congress
has provided funds for the usual dis-
tribution in 1915 and the other branch
has refused to do so, the matter now
being in the hands of the conference
committee. Interested seedsmen are
this week calling on members of the
conference committee, singly and in
groups. Some of the congressmen are
said to have considerable difficulty in
understanding the point of view of the
seedsmen who say they oppose the con-
gressional free distribution but who
nevertheless bid for the business.
Hotel Raleigh, the headquarters, be-
gan filling up with seedsmen as early
as Sunday, for the Grass Seed Dealers'
Association holds its annual meeting
one day ahead of the general body. The
custom of executive sessions was not
followed so closely this year as re-
cently, for it seemed inexpedient to
give official Washington the idea that
the affairs of the seed trade require
secrecy. With the younger men taking
a more active part in the affairs of the
association there is apparent a change
of sentiment in the attitude toward
newspapers and the public.
It is a warm convention, not only in
the discussion, which seems to center
around the points where the seed busi-
ness is touched by the law, but in tem-
perature: the mercury climbed to 92
degrees on the opening day, but had
fallen to 74 by 7 p. m.
The sentiment appears to favor a
trip to California for 1915, with an in-
ternational congress of seedsmen as a
feature of the convention.

June 23, W. F. Gude, president of the

improvement, advocated the coopera-
tion of members of the American Seed
Trade Association in their respective
states or sections, with all the various
agricultural educational agencies at
work, such as the farm demonstration
work, boys' corn clubs, girls' canning
clubs, etc.
A distinct phase was developed by
this committee, in inquiries made of ex-
periment station and agricultural col-
lege workers, which brings on a consid-
erable discussion of the general ques-
tion of seed regulation in its relation to
the furnishing of seeds of higher qual-
ity and less impurities by the seed trade
as a whole to farmers. This committee
makes what may seem a radical recom-
mendation to the association, that its
members cooperate with agricultural
college and experiment station workers
in formulating dnd pressing for passage
reasonable pure seed regulations, in-
sofar as they relate to grass, clover and
agricultural seeds in general; that is,
such seeds as are distinguishable in the
grain of the seed.
' ' The chairman believes that the high-
class seed trade of the United States
has everything to gain and nothing to
lose by taking sucn a stand. Investi-
gation shows that troubles arising out
of purchases of impure or inferior seed
are mostly purchases made from local
general merchants or local seed stores
and not from recognized, high-class seed
houses such as generally compose the
American Seed Trade Association. This
class of dealers as a rule are ignorant
as to seed quality and, generally, buy
where they can buy the cheapest, re-
gardless of quality, and it is seed han-
dled in this way that is responsible for
a great majority of complaints that
result in calls for seed legislation.
"The chairman of this committee is
making a recommendation of this -kind
to the association entirely on hia own
responsibility and recognizes that it is
a radical departure from the past atti-
tude of seedsmen, but a careful study
of the situation as it relates to produc-
tion and distribution of seeds in the
United States leads him to believe that
this is the wisest policy that the Ameri-
can Seed Trade Association can follow.
This policy would, if followed, bring
about cooperation between the seed
trade and various agricultural agencies
on this question of seed legislation
which must be faced and if the seed
trade will adopt such an attitude, in-
stead of one of antagonism to all seed
legislation, they will secure the sym-
pathy, respect and consideration of the
forces that are either drafters of seed
bills or act in an advisory capacity in
such matters."
Experiment Stations.
L. L. Olds, for the committee on ex-
periment stations, presented a volumi-
nous report consisting of extracts from
letters from thirty-nine of the forty-
eight state experiment stations telling
of the work they have been doing of
special interest to seedsmen, particu-
larly along the line of plant breeding.
The purpose of Mr. Olds and his com-
mittee is to put the association and the
trade at large closer in touch with the
experiment stations so that all may
profit by cooperation.

and was followed by an animated dis-
cussion of the effects of the new ar-
rangement. While many individual
embarrassments were pointed out, it
was the consensus of opinion that Mr.
Therkildson and his committee had ob-
tained the best that could reasonably
be expected.
In opening the discussion Mr. Ther-
kildson said that the greatest difficulty
encountered under the parcel post is in
pricing catalogues, since the application
of the zone rates makes the cost of de-
livery differ widely as between near-by
and distant customers; also it makes it
impossible for seedsmen in different
cities to quote approximately the same
delivered prices for the whole country,
since no two houses, if located in .dif-
ferent cities, can figure on the same
basis. It was the consensus of opinion
that the trade requires the elimination
of the zones and resolutions to that ef-
fect were adopted.
Papers and Discussions.

ing the early part of the meeting:

Do we keep 'em? Nope— ^

when placing his OT^er for
lily bulbs with us, when we
solicited his order for other
bulbs as well, remarked that
he did not know we sold other
than lily bulbs. So this turn
we are going to toot our horn
on other than lily bulbs. The
extreme drought in the south
of France this season has
been harmful to the crops;
the sizes will be small and
the prices high on account of
the small crop. Those of you
that gave your orders for
French bulbs to the Holland-
ers are likely not to receive
the bulbs, the Hollanders
have such a pleasing way of
not shipping the orders when
taken at low prices and the
market goes against them.
Our growers write us that
our orders will be filled and
with good stock. Protect
yourself against disappoint-
ment and the failure to
receive your French bulbs

The progressive florist must now look ahead to winter and plan
early for a full measure of success. If you have not grown my S.
P. Seedling snaps you will want a big bed of them. If you have
grown them you will grow more, for there is no plant in cultiva-
tion that will give the same returns, and there is no snapdragon in
existence so beautiful or productive, nor so easy to handle. Sow
seeds in July and August for best results. Allow three months to
have fine, bushy plants, ready for the bench. Our free instructions
are complete and make growing simple. There is no comparison
between a seedling plant of Silver Pink and a cutting from any
other variety. The seedling makes a business plant from the start
and can be produced at one-eighth of the cost.
When buying my original Silver Pink you are getting the cream of all
snapdragons. You won't have to make an apology for its color. It is that
lovely, silvery, sea-shell pink that fits into any occasion without special ton-
gery to match it. It is what the p«opl« buy and the p«opil« are the ones to
whom we must cater. Unsolicited testimonials and repeat orders by the
hundred. See recent ads. -
. For a long flowering season sow seed in JULY and. AUGUST. Price ot

PRESIDENT MASSIE'S ADDBESS.
[A synopsis of the address of C. C. Massle,
president of the American Seed Trade Association,
delivered at the opening session of the Washing-
ton convention, June 23.]
While some departments of our busi-
ness may show more or less decrease, on
the whole the seed trade has reason to
review the year's business with consid-
erable pride. The business of seed sell-
ing is gradually being elevated to a
higher plane. When the seed business
as it is conducted today is compared
with the methods in vogue two or three
decades ago, rapid development is ap-
parent. There is still room for great
improvement and changes for the better
are rapidly taking place.
It was my good fortune to spend my
early life on the farm. This experience
taught me many things; among others,
the true value of good seeds and the
great moral responsibility resting with
the seedsman. It has been said that the
seed merchant occupies a position rela-
tive to that of the banker. Men who
deposit money in the bank do so with
confidence in the banker; those who
purchase seeds also must have confi-
dence in the seedsman. Our vocation
is one which requires men of unques-
tioned honesty and highest integrity.
The annual conventions of this asso-
ciation, increasing in size, are bringing
before us many new faces, mostly young
men. Some of these new members are

due to attain great success, but this will
not come without hard work and certain
sacrifices. It is upon these younger mem-
bers that we must depend for the prog-
ress and stability of this association.
Uniform Laws Needed.
The most important subject before
the seed trade at this time is uniform
state legislation. All realize the diffi-
culties involved in the transaction of
their business while widely different
seed laws are enforced in each state.
There does not seem to exist the har-
mony which naturally should be ex-
pected with the law-making bodies of
the various states, but those who have
the enforcing of these laws in their
power are beginning to realize the
necessity of cooperation and are work-
ing more closely together. Many of
the seed analysts are coming to realize
the difficulties under which the seed
trade is operating and are disposed to
view with wisdom the advisability of
mutual understanding. I feel that the
seed analysts are willing and ready to
cooperate with the seedsmen, but I am
inclined to believe that the average
seedsman is not so well acquainted with
his state seed commissioner or analyst
as is possible. If all those interested
could get together at stated intervals

The KENILWORTH Giant Pansy
seeds are all grown by myself and are offered in the following mixtures and
separate colors:
KENILWORTH STRAIN— The flowers are of perfect form and substance;
many of the immense flowers are from 3J^ to 4 inches; it is a striking
collection of beautiful colors and markings, rich with shades of red,
brown, bronze, mahogany and many others too numerous to mention.
Light, Medium or Dark Mixtures.
KENILWORTH SHOW — An extra fine strain of large flowers; the
immense flowers are of circular form and great substance; a beautiful
collection of colors and markings.
KENILWORTH CUT FLOWER MIXTURE — Is a distinct class by
itself, surpassing all other strains as a cut flower or for exhibition pur-
poses, for inside or outside growing; the large flowers are carried erect
above the foliage on heavy stems, 7 or 8 inches long, in the most grace-
ful manner, and stand the hot, dry weather wtll.
MASTERPIECE — A remarkable type; the curled, wavy petals giving the
flower a double appearance, its large flowers of great substance, on
long, strong stem.
ORCHID FLOWERED, Mixed— A dwarf free bloomer with a range of
delicate colors that do not exist in any other pansies, a remarkable com-
bination of light rose, shell pink, blush mauve, fawn, light brown,
orange and chamois.

each had a representative present. The
meetings were conducted by the state
seed inspector. Half -day sessions were
held for a week and a splendid oppor-
tunity was given to discuss the Minne-
sota seed laws in every detail. The
seed inspector stated that the week's
work was most valuable to him and
that, after having an opportunity of
talking to so many of the seedsmen, he
realized some of the difficulties with
which the seed merchant had to contend.
Law Changes This Tear.
During the year new weight and
measure laws have been made eflfective
in various states. A bushel of peas in
Iowa now calls for sixty pounds, regard-
less of whether they are smooth or wrin-
kled peas. In Minnesota the law calls
for sixty pounds of smooth peas and
fifty-six pounds of wrinkled sorts. In
Pennsylvania all peas are classed at
sixty pounds per bushel. I only cite
this one commodity to show the difficul-
ties the seedsmen have to contend with.
A national weight and measure act
would be desirable, but better still, I
think that the seed trade as a body
should discontinue offering seeds by
measure and adopt the cental system.
While the new parcel post rates are
not entirely agreeable to all, especially
those mailing large catalogues, on the
whole the seed trade is to be congratu-
lated in securing the rates now in ef-
fect.
The seedsmen 's disclaimer or non-

CENTAL SYSTEM BECOMMENDED.
[A report on the advisability of selling seeds
by weight, prepared by F. W. Bruggerhof, of J. M.
TUorburn & Co., presented at the Washington con-
vention.]
In my opinion American seedsmen
should break away from tradition and
quote in our catalogues, whether whole-
sale or retail, all seeds as well as potato
tubers by weight.
While the selling of seeds by the
measured bushel has disappeared to a
certain extent in the trade, the weight
per bushel has a value in determining
grade, especially in grass seeds, which
vary greatly iu quality. Redtop seed
weighing ten pounds per bushel is com-
posed largely of chaff and contains a
small percentage of good seed, while
fancy seed containing from eighty-five
to ninety-five per cent of pure seed
weighs from thirty-five to forty pounds
per bushel. Similar variations in weight
exist in connection with other common
grass seeds, such as bluegrass, brome
grass, rye grass, orchard grass and the
fescues.
The weights per bushel of grains do
not vary so much as do those of grass
seeds, but nevertheless the weight per
bushel is an important factor to be con-
sidered in grading; still I think we
should sell by weight from our cata-
logue, specifying, if need be, the grade
by mentioning the approximate number
of pounds to the bushel.
I note that in several instances the
legal weights are obviously misleading
and should be changed. There is evi-
dently an error in the Louisiana statute
which gives the weight for barley and
rye as thirty-two pounds. The weights
of buckwheat vary from forty to fifty-
two pounds in the different states. The
legal weights for oats should be made
more nearly uniform. In Pennsylvania
and West Virginia the legal weight is
thirty-two pounds; in Virginia, thirty
pounds, and in Maryland, twenty-six
pounds. The legal weight for Kentucky
bluegrass and redtop in all states where
legal weight has been established is
fourteen pounds. This weight was es-
tablished before the present methods of
cleaning came into general use and
while the seed was still in chaff. Clean
seed of good grade always weighs from
two to three times as much.
In numerous instances the customary
weights per bushel of seeds used by the
trade are not the same as the legal
weights. Seedsmen handle large quan-
tities of fodder and forage seeds, as
well as other seeds, for few of which
legal weights per bushel have been es-
tablished. They have, therefore, to ar-
rive at customary weights only, whicli
vary in the different states.
A subject of much importance in the
cental system of selling seeds is that
of mixtures of various grass seeds for
lawns, for pastures and for meadows.
Such mixtures are in most cases of-
fered at prices per bushel of various
weights and in cases where no specific
bushel weight is noted it is usually as-
sumed that the mixture weighs fourteen
pounds to the bushel. This is a mis-
leading condition, as today where first-
class seeds are used the bushel weight
of such mixtures would vary from
twenty to thirty poumlji to the nieas-
NEW WINTER-FLOWERING SWEET PEA
If you are a grower of Winter-flowering Sweet Peas, you naturally look for the
very best strain procurable. The Indianapolis Sweet Pea called "ROSE QUEEN" is
without question the finest Sweet Pea introduced for many a year. Orchid-flowering,
borne on lonir stems, extremely free and early and of a pink color most attractive, it is
a decided acquisition, and like all meritorious novelties is sure to be in demand wherever
grown.

Gentlemen:— Indianapolis, Ind., April 14, 1914.
We have handled the pink sweet pea. "Rose Queen," in large quantities for several years,
and can heartily recommend it to any grower or retailer as a good keeper and fine seller. It
is easily the best sweet pea shown in this market. Respectfully, A, WIEGAND'S SOUS CO.
Gentlemen:— Indianapolis, Ind., March 14, 1914.
We take pleasure in conscientiously recommending Mr. A. Pittet's new sweet pea,
"Rose Queen " It is the new Orchid type, and has these advantages: They bloom earlier
than any other Orchid type on the market are a wonderful producer, and have a clear pink
color unsurpassed. We think the price of the seed is a small item. Very truly yours.
BERTERMAN]^ BROS. CO.
Dear Sir:- Richmond, Ind.. April 20. 1914.
We are glad to write you a line concerning your beautiful pink Sweet Pea. To our mind
it is the most beautiful variety of its color, being large in size, long-stemmed, the tint bright
and exceedingly clear and, best of all, the variety is a wonderful keeper. We do not believe
there is another sort that will keep, when cut, as finely as this variety. It has been a great
favorite in our stores. Yours very truly. THE E. O. HILL CO.

New Winter-blooming ORCHID- FLOWERED
Sweet Pea ^^Anita Wehrman'^
A fine, cl«ar lav«nd«r. with three to four flowers to stem, and has been grown with 20-inch stems, holding the
length longer than is usual with any other winter-flowering variety.
Will bloom from Thanksgiving on, if sown in July.
This variety originated with Mr. Henry Wehrman, of May wood, 111., five years ago, and has been grown and selected
by him ever since, he now having the type fixed as well as it can be in the Spencer variety.
The seed we offer is greenhouse-grown, saved and rogued by the originator, and will be ready for delivery in July,
the proper time to sow for Thanksgiving and Christmas bloom.
We give herewith Mr. Wehrman's own opinion of its merits as a cut flower. "^

ured bushel, according to the formula
used.
In consequence of this somewhat
chaotic condition I have felt for many
years that some concerted action should
be taken by seedsmen, by which all
seeds could be quoted and sold by
weight. Peas, beans, sweet corn and
grass seed mixtures for the retail trade
should, in my opinion, be sold by
weight, rather than by the pint, quart,
etc., and I hope all the trade may con-
cur in this opinion, as it certainly is
fairer and more rational for both buyer
and seller than the custom now in
vogue, and if both wholesale and retail
catalogues could be made to conform to
this suggested change, say with the
issue of 1916 publications, I think a
long step would be taken in the right
direction.

years as sole proprietor of the business.
The firm was established in 1789 by
Johann Christian Appel, in Griesheim,
a small place near Darmstadt, which at
the beginning of the last century was
the center of the German forest seed
trade. His son, Conrad Wilhelm Appel,
who was the head of the firm up to
1855, considerably extended the busi-
ness, and in 1850 removed it to Darm-
stadt, on account of the better railway
communications. His successors, his
son, Conrad Appel, and his son-in-law,
Ernst Ludwig Heyn, did much to en-
large the trade by extending more and
mpre the seed dressing, cleaning and
grading departments, which even in the
sixties were already cottftpicuous. In

TOMATOES UNDEB GLASS.
Can you tell me of a good book on
growing tomatoes under glass? What
is the best kind to plant? I do not
force my tomatoes. I keep the night
temperature up to 60 degrees and the
day temperature at about 80 to 83 de-
grees. At night during December,
January and February it will drop to
40 degrees. I only aim to keep the
frost out of the house during winter.
I grew Chalk's Jewel this year. The
plants were fifteen inches apart in the
row and two rows to a 3-fopt bed, with
a 20-inch path between. The soil can
be made any depth up to twelve inches.
I found the Jewel tomato set all right,
but the fruit rotted and half the crop
was a loss. I would like all the infor-
mation you can give, as I have a mar-
ket that will take 300 or 400 pounds
daily from April 1 to June 15.
C. D. O.
I do not know of any special work
on indoor tomato culture, although some
of the state college bulletins and spe-
cial vegetable books have articles on
them. You will find some practical
notes on this subject in a recent copy
of The Eeview. For midwinter forcing
the English varieties are decidedly su-
perior to the American. Comet is
largely grown, but Lister's Prolific
seems to be an improvement on that
variety. Other good sorts are Carter's
Sunrise and Sutton's Best of All. Of
American varieties Earliana and Early
Jewel are the best.
For a midwinter crop you are plant-
ing your tomatoes too thickly. One
row to a bed would give you far bet-
ter returns. After March, two rows
are all right. In order, however, to
get a good winter crop you must run
your night temperature higher than 40
degrees. You cannot expect a first-
class crop and fruit free from rot in so
low a temperature. Also give the
plants a much more limited root run
in winter; four inches would be far
better than twelve inches. Drop Early
Jewel and try one of the other sorts
named and you will succeed much bet-
ter. Always give the plants a dry
atmosphere, and pollinate artificially in
midwinter. C. W.

LOS ANOELES.
The Market.
June weddings and school exercises
have given just the stimulus to business
that was needed to wind up the season
well. In almost every retail store, and
in some of the wholesale ones, school
work has been prominent. Funeral work
has also kept up well, and altogether it
has been a busy week for all. The stock
being used is about the same as noted
last week, the principal addition being
Kuperb Iris Kaempferi. Greenhouse car-
nations are good, but the outdoor flowers
are getting rather rough. There is a
good demand for hanging baskets, with
ferns or foliage plants, for porch and
house decoration.
Various Notes. .
It had been common knowledge in
the city for several days that Charles
E. Morton, of the Los Angeles Flower
Market, had sold his interest in the cor-
poration and that Fred Sperry had been
appointed president. But the incoming
partner apparently did not like the
flower business and Mr. Morton has
bought in again. He will probably go
away for a time to get the throat trouble
from which he has been suffering fixed
up, but will continue in business at the
old stand. We should all be sorry to
lose "Charlie" from our midst, and all
wish him a speedy recovery of his usual
health.
Miss Rohrs since giving up her busi-
ness on Washington street has been liv-
ing at the beach at Ocean Park and is
much improved in health.
J. M. Grant, of this city, has been ap-
pointed forester for Orange county, with
headquarters at Santa Ana. He has
already taken up his duties. He has had
considerable experience in southern Cali-
fornia, including some time as inspector
under the horticultural commission
Previous to coming here he was in the
government forest service in South
Africa and Australia. His practical and
theoretical knowledge of the trees and
shrubs of these latitudes should make
him a valuable man to the county, and
he enters his new position with the best
wishes of a large circle of friends in
Los Angeles and vicinity.
H. Reeve Darling has returned from
his European honeymoon trip. I have
not as yet seen him, but Manager W.
Garbett says he has him in harness
again. Business is keeping up finely in
the store, with plenty of graduation
work.
C, Winsel always has a lot of flowers
"in the store, from his Montebello nurs-
ery. Some fine outdoor roses are the
special attraction this week. An auto-
mobile service station has taken up part
of his Washington street nursery, but
does not interfere with his store there.
H. W. Turner is adding a Chalmers
automobile delivery van to the equip-
ment, which will help to eliminate all de-
lays in delivery in the early morning and
in meeting trains with plant stock.
Everything points to a most successful
season here, the number of plants
shipped out being remarkable.

salesyard, to the new grounds on the
Whittier road. The soil at the trial
grounds is now in splendid condition and
many important trials have been car-
ried out, to true up and prove the ex-
cellent strains of flower and vegetable
seeds in which the firm specializes. This
is an important work in which the Ger-
mains are practically pioneers here, hav-
ing spent a great deal of money in it.
J. Reeves has grand nursery stock out
met in the store of C. Winsel to finish
the arrangements for the Montebello
picnic of the Horticultural Society,
which is going to be a "hummer." The
trade has been liberal in offers of trans-
portation, C. Winsel, Aggeler & Musser

was glad to hear, has much improved in
health of late. H. R. Richards.

Trade surely seems to be moving to
the south and west. Only a few years
ago Howard & Smith, at Ninth and
Olive streets, seemed quite out of the
business section, but their store is cer-
tainly a busy place now. All hands have
been on the run with school work, and
some elegant work in baskets and
bouquets has beeli turned out.
Preparations are being made by the
Germain Seed & Plant Co. to remove its
entire nursery business, except the city
The Market.
Green and refreshing as the country
around Santa Barbara always is, it is
even more beautiful than usual this sea-
son, on account of the frequent rains
and the absence of hot, sunny weather.
Many new places are going up and the
older places are looking their best.
While the florists say that business has
not been exactly rushing, yet there has
been a continuous demand that has kept
everyone moving. The supply of indoor
flowers is never particularly large here,
owing to the absence of big ranges for
the growing of cut flowers, and most of

the stock is shipped in from Los Angeles
and San Francisco. But there is a fair
showing and the quality is good.
Various Notes.
A splendid new establishment is in
course of construction near Montecito,
on the Cowles estate. Although an east-
ern firm is carrying out the landscape
work, the superintendent in charge,
"William Donald, is a man of wide ex-
perience both in California and in the
east. The work is only in the prepara-
tory stage, but he has already started
a nursery in a sheltered part of the
grounds and a quantity of young seed-
lings and other stock are being raised.
Mr. Donald has a virgiti field to work
in — almost too virgin, he says, as he
would have liked a little more native
timber to begin on, but those who know
his capabilities have no fear as to the
results.
A. Beverley, of the Mission Oak Nurs-
ery, says he has had a good season. His
specialty is vegetable plants and roots,
though he also grows some cut flowers
and has had good success in both lines.
He has built a new lath house and car-
ried out several other improvements. In-
cidentally he mentioned some improve-
ments in the sprinkler business, in which
he is also interested, but his plans are
not matured as yet.
Joseph Whipple is making additions
to his greenhouses and is pulling down
some of the glass at his State streot
place, with a view to centralizing his
efforts at the lower plant, on Bancheria
street. He is not complaining of lack
of business and is showing fine stock in
his store.
Mr. Eiedel, proprietor of the Southern
California Acclimatizing Association, is
carrying out a good deal of landscape
work, notably the removal of some large
old orange trees and other such ncock
from his place to a neighboring estate.
The stock here is always interesting,
comprising many varieties.
At the Kentia Nurseries Mr. Verhelle
is showing elegant stock of all his spe-
cialties. The kentias in all sizes look
remarkably clean and good in color. He
is interested in a new insecticide, of
European origin, I believe, and is put-
ting it on the market after repeated
and thorough trials at the nursery.
At the Exotic Nurseries Mr. Lejeune
says business is about the average.
Many good shipments of the fine stock
he grows have been made. His sign
reads, "Exotic Nurseries, for Distinct-
ive Plants, ' ' and this is amply descrij^-
tive. H. R. Richards.
SEATTLE, WASH.
The Market.
Carnations are now selling .at a lower
price than for many years and still there
is hardly any demand for them. Sweet
peas seem to be the only flowers for
■which there is much call, and of these
there is a good supply. Roses are plen-
tiful and not in great demand. Gladioli
are selling fairly well, though more of
them are oflfered than is usual at this
season. Several florists have grown
some in benches and large quantities of
the Colvillei type are being sold. The
sale of bedding sto«k is alwut over for
the season and, even at the low prices
prevailing, most growers have too many
left over to make the prospects alluring
for another year; few of the growers
made An^^money- from their bedding

cleaned up considerable stock.
Bose Society's Show.
The first show of the Pacific North-
west Bose Society was held June 13
and 14, under canvas on a lawn adjoin-
ing the Henry building, on Fourth ave-
nue. The competition for prizes was
mostly confined to amateurs and many
notable stands of roses were exhibited
by them, the competition in most in-
stances being keen. The sweepstake
Srizes were won by fine specimens of
[elanie Soupert and Jonkheer J. L.
Mock. Mr. Balmer, of Cle Elum, Mr.
Sherbrook, of Portland, Ore., and Mr.
Tucker, of Portland, were the judges.
Among the trade representatives was
J. J. Bonnell, who secured first prizes
for the nurserymen's exhibit and for
roses, the Seattle Landscape & Nursery
Co. being second in each instance. The
Seattle Floral Co. gained first award for
greenhouse plants; the Burdett Co., sec-
ond. Eosaia Bros, put up a notable ex-
hibit, an Italian pergola draped with
asparagus and orchids, for which they
received first honors and a silver cup.
Thomas Wylie carried off the premium
for hardy perennials.
Various Notes.
Mr. Gill, of Oakland, Cal., and Mr.
Howard, of Los Angeles, both rose
growers, were in town last week in the
interests of their respective establish-
ments.
Mr. Eowe, sales manager for Mrs.
L. W. McCoy, was the sole representa-
tive • of the Seattle trade who visited
Portland for the rose show. He reports
a good time and generous hospitality
from the florists in the Eose City.

The Market.
Aside from commencement exercises
and an occasional funeral, there is prac-
tically nothing doing in the stores.
Business dropped off unusually early this
year, owing to the advanced season to
a great measure. Carnations are plenti-
ful, but will be so only for a short time,
as the benches are rapidly being cleared
to make way for the new plants, which
will bu planrod as early as possible. Pe-
culiar wouthcr conditions mako it ad-
visable to remove the plants from the
field at the earliest date possible. Eoses
are still plentiful, but badly injured by
mildew, with the exception of Hilling-
don, which seems to be entirely immune.
Orchids are scarce, while valley is pJeu-
tiful enough to supply the demaud for
June weddings. Delphiniums, gaillar-
dias, Canterbury bells and coreopsis are
in abundance.
Various Notes.
The Holden Floral Co. is cutting a
fine lot of America gladioli, which are
quickly snapped up by the trade.
J. E. Fuestner, representing the Pine
Tree Silk Mills, Philadelphia, was call-
ing on the trade last week.

Congratulations are in order for H. V.
Barnford, who was married in Seattle
June 18, to Miss Mable 01m, of New
York. The wedding was a quiet affair,
owing to the illness of Mr. Barnford 's
father, who was recently operated on.
M. Bosaia, of Seattle, spent a few
days here last week, visiting various es-
tablishments and securing stock.
A. P. Normart, driver for the Martin

The Market.
Hot weather has struck this market
in full force and is a welcome relief
from the unusually cold weather which
prevailed almost without a break all
spring. The weather was so cold, in
fact, that the early outdoor roses were
practically a failure. Geraniums, can-
nas and almost all bedding plants have
gone back or, at the best, have stood
still. The park men are complaining of
the amount of replanting which this
condition has necessitated.
Outdoor sweet peas, snapdragons and
stocks are to be had in good quality
and at decidedly reasonable prices.
Koses and carnations are in full crop,
with little demand. Several batches of
Easter lilies from cold storage bulbs are*
in the market, but meet with no de-
mand. While there have been a good
number, probably the usual number, of
weddings this June, this season is re-
markable in that there have been no
really large weddings, from a florist's
point of view.
Various Notes.
Graduation exercises at the various
schools brought out lively bidding
among the florists for decorating and
the graduates' corsages. The Spokane
Florist Co. received the order for deco-
rations for the North Central High
School, while A. J. Burt supplied the
corsages. Mr. Burt also supplied the
palms and decorations for the Lewis
and Clark High School exercises, at
the State armory, and Henry E. Beimers
supplied the corsages.
The Spencer sweet peas of Hoyt Bros.
Co. are probably the best attainable in
these flowers. Countess Spencer is espe-
cially good.
Olsson & Bernson are planning to get
all the enjoyment possible during the
hot days. They have rented a cottage
for the summer at Newman Lake and
are passing around invitations to come
and spend a week or two with them.
Mr. Olsson is moving into the cottage
this week. L. B. H.

next winter. E. H. K.
The best method for growing on young
plants of Dracaena indivisa during the
summer is to plant them out in the open
ground in rows, spacing the plants ten
or twelve inches apart in the rows and
keeping the ground well cultivated
throughout the season. If the weather
should prove to be extremely dry, the
dracffinas would be benefited by water-
ing, but unless this is really necessary
it is preferable to depend more on cul-
tivation tp provide the moisture. The

plants may remain outdoors until there
is danger of frost, and if planted at
once they would have almost three
months in which to make their growth.
Lift carefully in the autumn, and pot
into as small pots as the roots will al-
low. Water thoroughly and protect
from the sun for a few days, after
which they may be placed in the full
light in a greenhouse with a night tem-
perature of 50 degrees, in which they
will keep in good condition for the win-

before the roots get into action.

The Fbrists'' Review
JCNE 26, 1914.
The Kenilworth Nursery Co., of Chi-
cago, has received permission from the
secretary of state, at Springfield, 111., to
increase its capital stock from $7,000 to
$25,000.
As the peony season in Minnesota is
considerably later than in the other dis-
tricts where that flower is extensively
grown, D. W. C. Kiiflf's nurseries at Bald
Eagle lake, near St. Paul, had, he esti-
mated, about 100,000 blooms on his
plants when he entertained the Men's
Garden Club of Eamsey county last week.
An acre of rhododendrons in bloom
on the land of the Bay State Nurseries,
at North Abington, Mass., was made of
advertising value by the arrangement of
drives and walks for the accommodation
of visitors. W. H. Wyman, proprietor of
the Bay State Nurseries,, has 400 acres
at Eockland and North Abington in ad-
dition to the plant at South Framing-
ham, about half of which is under culti-
vation. The whole seventy acres at North
Abington are planted so as to allow
automobilists to drive through and see
the growing stock.
PACIFIC COAST ASSOCIATION.
[For a full report of the opening days of the
Vancouver meeting of tlie Pacific Coast Associa-
tion of Nurserymen, discussions, etc., see The
Review of June 18, page 04.]
Officers Elected.
San Francisco was selected as the
place of meeting in 1915, during the
exposition. OflScers were elected as fol-
lows, the election coming at the close of
the convention:
President — John Vallance, Oakland,
Cal.
Vice-presidents — California, A. A. El-
mer, San Jose; Oregon, C. F. Lansing,
Salem; British Columbia, J. Brown,
Vancouver; Idaho, E. F. Stephens,
Nampa; Montana, D. J. Tighe, Billings;
Utah, P. A. Dix, Salt Lake City; Wash-
ington, F. A. Wiggins, Toppenish,
Secretary-treasurer — C. A. Tonneson,
Tacoma, reelected.
Executive committee — D. W. Cool-
idge, Pasadena, Cal.; John Gill, West
Berkeley, Cal.; F. H. Wilson, Fresno,
Cal.
A Successful Meeting.
The outstanding feature of the meet-
ing, which had an attendance of about
100, was the participation and active
interest taken by the horticultural au-
thorities of the states represented in
the association. A better mutual un-
derstanding was arrived at and it is felt
that great progress was made in the
matter of uniform legislation and es-
pecially in the intelligent enforcement
of laws already on the statute books.
WELCH WINS SUIT.
The following report of the decision
in the case of E. S. Welch, proprietor
of the Mount Arbor Nurseries, at Shen-
andoah, la., before the Montana Su-
preme court, at Helena, appeared in the
Missoulian, of Missoula, Mont., under
the date of June 6:
"E. S. Welch, an Iowa nurseryman,
can do business in Montana as long as
You may discontinu* our adver*
ti^ament, as we are through with our

THE CLEVELAND CONVENTION.
his stock is free from disease, and he
does not need any license. The Supreme
court so ruled in an opinion by Justice
Holloway today, reversing the District
court of Yellowstone. Welch appealed
because the lower court refused to issue
a writ of mandamus preventing State
Horticultural Inspector M. L. Dean and
Fruit Inspector R. E. Bancroft from in-
terfering with him and also refused to
J. B. Pilkingtgn.
(President Amertcao AEScclatlon of Nurserrmen)
compel them to issue certificates for
shipments of nursery stock.
"That provision of the statute re-
quiring dealers in nursery stock to be
licensed is called 'one of the curiosities
of the law' by the Supreme court. It
fails to provide how or by whom the
license shall be issued, who shall receive
the $25 fee, what disposition shall be
made of it and also fails to provide for
the $1,000 bond that is required."
NURSERY STOCK IMPORTS.
According to government statistics
the imports of nursery stock in the last
three fiscal years had an invoice value
as follows:
Year Value
1911 $1,094,037
1912 1,251.365
1913 1,379,013
This includes plants, trees and vines;
bulbs, formerly included as nursery
stock imports, now are classified separ-
ately.
A Record Gathering.
Most venerable of the commercial or-
ganizations in the horticultural trades,
the American Association of Nursery-
men this week is holding what probably
will turn out to be its record meeting,
at Cleveland, O. It is the thirty-ninth
annual gathering. Last year's conven-
tion having been held on the Pacific
coast, with only a corporal's guard in
the eastern delegation, the present con-
vention probably profits somewhat by
the fact that few of those who attend
irregularly were present last year, But
the advantages of Cleveland as a cjnven-
tion city are strongly emphasized by the
unusually large number of buyers pres-
ent.
The convention is held in the Hol-
lenden hotel, with several rooms on the
same floor as the sessions hall devoted
to a trade's display in charge of T. B.
West, Perry, O. The opening session
was called to order Wednesday, June 24,
at 10 a. m., Eev. C. S. Harrison, well
known nurseryman of York, Neb., de-
livering an invocation, followed by an
address of welcome by Acting Mayor
Stockwell.
President Pilkington delivered a fine
address from the chair, sketching the
work of the year and pointing out the
course along which he thinks effort
should be directed for the future. He
made it apparent that the subject on
which the bulk of attention is centered
at present is the harassment of widely
divergent and unintelligently enforced
state laws.
Secretary Hall 's report showed re-
ceipts from membership and badge book
of $3,077.15, all turned over to the
treasurer. In concluding his report Mr.
Hall asked to be relieved of his oflice.
Legislation.
Wm. Pitkin, reporting for the com-
mittee on legislation east of the Mis-
sissippi, said that the year has been
uneventful. He emphasized the wai'ning
given last year, that the Federal quar-
antine law holds only menace for the
nursery trade, and traced briefly the
course of state legislation, the only im-
portant new law being the one in New
York. The main points of the New
York law were sketched, but with the
statement that they do not apply to
nurserymen outside that state.
Mr. Pitkin also presented a splendid
report for a special committee ap-
pointed at Portland last year to further
the adoption of uniform state legisla-
tion. He was able to show excellent
progress. Several meetings had been
held and committees of the Inspectors'
Association, with Prof. J. G. Sanders,
of Wisconsin, as chairman, and of the
American Pomological Society, with
Orlando Harrison, of Berlin, Md., as
chairman, are working to the same end.
On beiialf of the joint committees Prof.
Sanders is redrafting a bill that it seems
everybody can support and which should
get past the state legislatures. The bill

as informally drafted provides for a
state board of control, one of the mem-
bers of which shall be a nurseryman
actively engaged in the growing of
nursery stock, and the board will have
the authority necessary to carry out the
law and to provide the rules and regu-
lations for its enforcement. The bill
will attempt to define the terms "nurs-
ery," "nursery stock," "nurseryman,"
"dealer," "agent," and the "insects"
and "plant diseases" included in the
provisions of the act. It will provide
for the appointment of a chief inspector
whose duty it will be to carry out the
details of the law and all the rules and
regulations authorized by the law, un-
der the direction of the board of control.
It will provide for a proper method of
appeal to the board from the decisions
or orders of the inspector, and will, of
course, provide for the inspection of
nurseries and other premises and the
issuance of certificates to the nursery-
men, and for the treatment or destruc-
tion of infested or diseased trees and
plants, either in nurseries or other
premises. It will provide for the
issuance of certificates to the nursery-
man, to the dealer and to the agent,
and to nurserymen located outside of
the state, and for a uniform system
covering the certification of shipments
in state and interstate commerce, and
will include proper penalties for viola-
tion of the law.
Transportation Matters.
For the transportation committee
Charles Sizemore, Louisiana, Mo., pre-
sented a detailed report, the situation
being summarized in this paragraph:
"With the change in the Southern
Classification effective last November
nursery stock is now fifth class in car
lots east of the Mississippi river, with
the exception of Illinois, and seventh
class in Illinois and west of the Mis-
sissippi. It appears to the transpor-
tation committee that the railroads are
quietly trying to have the classifications
in such shape that when it comes to
uniform ratings they will be in position
to place nursery stock all over the coun-
try, car loads, in fifth class, which would
greatly increase the rates west of the
Mississippi river. The nurserymen
should watch this closely, and, if possi-
ble, endeavor to secure seventh class
east of the river, and failing in that,
possibly secure a compromise on sixth
class."
Crown Gall.
E. A. Smith, Lake City, Minn., who
has been chairman of the committee on
crown gall since it was made one of the
standing committees, said that the year
has developed little new information.
' ' The P. J. Berckmans Co., in connection
with H. P. Stuckey, horticulturist of
the Georgia Experimental Station, com-
menced an experiment two years ago
which we believe will be of practical
value. Up to this time the trees that

vorably with those which were planted
without crown gall, the stand in both
cases being almost perfect.
"The information relating to root
knot and crown gall should be preserved
for reference, where in the course of
time it could be boiled down and pre-
sented so that nurserymen and the-
orists may arrive at a definite conclu-
sion in regard to the injury of crown
gall or root knot, especially upon apple
trees, there still being a great diversity
of opinion among inspectors and those
who are supposed to be authority on
matters of this kind."

KELSEY NUBSEBIES BUILD.
The work of excavating for the foun-
dations of the frost-proof building, 140x
180, to be erected by the Kelsey Nurser-
ies, at South St. Joseph, Mo., was be-
gun June 10. The approximate cost of
the site and building will be $20,000.
Later a modern office building will be
erected near this site, and all of the
company's business will be transferred
to South St. Joseph. The new building
will be completed in time for the open-
ing of the fall shipping season. It will
have a capacity of 200 cars of nursery
stock. A private Eock Island siding will
extend along the west side of the struc-
ture, which will be near the 200-acre
tract of trees to the south.
At the meeting of the directors last
week, C. J. Ferguson, for several years
the company's local manager and lately
its secretary-treasurer, was advanced to
the vice-presidency, and G. L. "Welch, for
some time in charge of the plant at Fre-
mont, Neb., was made secretary-treas-
urer. Mr. Welch will move to St.
Joseph to assume active management of
the interests there. E. S. Welch, of
Shenandoah, la., is president of the com-
pany, and W. N. Adair, of Lincoln,
Neb., a director, is general field super-
intendent.

The Market.
Business is good this spring; in fact,
it has been so all winter. People out
west do not indulge in flowers so heavily
as do the inhabitants of the eastern and
middle states, yet Missoula for its size,
15,000 to 18,000 population, is a fairly
good place for florists. Boses and per-
ennials do well outdoors, but at the
same time wild flowers and shrubs are
luxuriant and furnish the people with
all they want in this line during this
season. In summer everything dries up
except asters, which grow to perfection.
Various Notes.
C. F. Dallman finds the store a good
business getter for the Missoula Nursery
Co. This concern now has about 35,000
square feet of glass and seventy-five
acres of nursery land.
The Anderson Greenhouses are keep-
ing up to the record for this time of
year. Prospects are good for the growth
in size of this range, which now com-
prises about 20,000 feet of glass.
Tie E. & S. Flower Store reports busi-
ness good for this season. A. C. A.
Elberon, N. J._Wm. Bryan finds
shore business opening later than usual,
with excellent prospects for a busy

West End, N. J.— Wm. J. Eisele re-
ports a rather slack season in landscape
work, attributing it to various causes.
Plant trade is always good.

NASHVILLE, TENN.
The Market.
The week has been a good one in that
it saw the break of the prolonged
drought. Tuesday, June 16, we had a
general rain of over an inch and a half,
and we have had two good showers
since. The most noticeable change is in
the appearance of the outdoor roses and
the parks. They have changed for the
better as if by magic.
There is no great supply of cut flow-
ers of any kind, but there are plenty for
the, dull summer trade. The excessive
heat has driven many people away from
the city earlier than usual. There is
little demand except for funeral work,
now that the last of the commencements
are over. Taking it as a whole, the
season closing has been one of the most
successful we have had here. Roses are
pretty good at present, while carnations
are practically gone. Sweet peas are
scarce and the quality is not good. The
bedding plants the city over have suf-
fered badly, and there is little bloom on
any except some of the geraniums.
Shrubbery has done well, and there has
been little loss from spring-set trees.
The seed trade has had a revival since
the rain, there being a good demand for
field seeds and tomato and sweet potato
plants. Much of the small garden stuff
will be replanted.
Various Notes.
The Hillcrest School Farm is plan-
ning to put in a private water plant at
once. The water will be pumped from
White's creek to the top of the hill,
where gravity will give suflScient pres-
sure on all parts of the farm. They
have finished planting dahlias. They
say that gladioli never looked so badly
at this season.
J. K. Postma, one of the employees at
Lischey 's Gardens, has invented a new
fumigator for using nicotine in its va-
rious forms. Mr. Browne says that it
is the best thing that he has ever seen
for the purpose. It is understood that
Mr. Postma has applied for a patent and
will put the device on the market in the
near future.

The florists' association for this city
seems to be an assured fact. It will be
a factor that has been needed here for
a long time. There is a move on foot
for a state association as well and the
wide-awake florists should not rest till
this is an accomplished fact. When the
men of any business look one another in

Club Meeting.
President B. F. Barr called the Lan-
caster County Florists ' Club to order on
Thursday evening, June 18, with a large
attendance of members. Much interest
was shown in the arrangements for the
annual picnic and the preparations for
the fall flower show. The Auditorium
has been leased for November 6 and 7.
The committee is at work on a schedule
of awards, and special attention will be
given to amateur exhibits.
Elmer J. Weaver reported for the
picnic committee. The picnic will be
held at Mount Gretna, July 16. The
special train leaves the Pennsylvania
depot at 9:40 a. m., and, returning,
reaches Lancaster about 8:30 p. m.
Mount Gretna is a beautiful mountain
resort, with many attractions, and will
make an ideal place for the picnic. An
invitation is extended to all florists in
neighboring counties, and their friends,
to join with us in this outing.
The papers of the evening were read
by Chas. M, Weaver, of Ronks, whose
subject was "Asters," and ira H. Lan-
dis, of Paradise, whose subiect was
"Gladioli."
H. D. Kohrer exhibited some fine Nia-
gara and America gladiolus blooms.
The committee on cooperative buving
is investigating a corrugated box propo-
sition offered by one of the large east-
ern firms.
The program committee is arranging
some special features for the fall meet-
ings, which are being looked forward to
with much interest.
Various Notes.

representing the Lord & Burnham Co.,
for a good sized addition to his present

There has been no decision as yet
from the Court of Appeals in the flo-
rists' tax case. We learn from the
county clerk that this court has re-
turned no decisions in any of the cases
heard here. The judges are said to have
been well loaded with cases belonging
to their own district and some time is
therefore required to dig through the
accumulation of local and foreign mat-
ter.

GERANIUMS
Careful growers do not depend on the scrubs left over from the bedding
season for propagating their next season's stock. They know that it pays them
to safeguard the vitality of the geranium stock, just as well as of the carnation
or the rose. We have thousands of vigorous young plants which were propa-
gated late for this purpose. Let us supply you from these— they are a bargain
at $2..50 per 100, $20.00 per 1000. We have :

The Florists' Review
JcsE 25, 1914.
MILWAUKEE, WIS.
The Market.
Business was exceptionally good last
week. The weather has been cool for
the last few days and this has helped
stock materially. Carnations are short-
ening up and their quality is greatly
improved. Sales are a great deal bet-
ter and the market is being cle9,ned
up fairly well every day, at higher
prices than formerly. Boses are scarce
and it is practically impossible to take
care of all the orders for them. White
roses, especially, have been in great
demand, while the supply has been
limited and the quality not as good as
it should be. Ther6 are some fine Kus-
seFl roses on the market and they
seem to be in great demand. In many
•cases this rose is taking the place of
American Beauty.
Sweet peas have shortened up con-
siderably and are bringing top-notch
prices, although the quality is not extra
good. The peony supply seems to be
about past, with the exception of a
few late varieties. New Wisconsin
ferns are now in the market and are
bringing from $1..50 to $2 per thou-
sand. The drop in price is noticeable,
as in the early part of the week, ow-
ing to the extreme shortage, ferns
broughfabout $4 per thousand. Gradua-
tion exercises at the Milwaukee Dow-
ner Colleg? and at the Normal School
helped to clean up the market.
There was a slight frost in this vi-
cinity Friday night, June 19, but no
damage has been reported.
Various Notes.
The automobile parade for Ford cars,
June 20, was well patronized by some
of Milwaukee's leading florists. Mrs.
Baumgarten, of the Stephenson build-
ing, had her new Ford truck deco-
rated with excellent taste for the occa-
sion. H. J. S.
NEWPORT, E. I.
Fred G. Wheaton, formerly of tliis
<-'ity, but for many years of South
Easton, Mass., died there recently. He
was an authority on botany and fre-
quently lectured on the subject before
the Newport Horticultural Society.
William Koehler, of Wadley &
Sniythe, New York, was in the city
early last week, arranging for the open-
in"; of the firm's branch in this city.
A. T. Bunyard, of New York, was
here last week, opening his branch
store, on Bellevue avenue. Mr. Bun-
yard has just returned from Europe,
where he attended the golden wedding
of his parents, at Hove, England.

200,000 GIANT FLOWERING CYCLAMEN
SEEDLINGS AND BLOOMING PLANTS.
For the last 16 years we have selected three-
fourths of our seed-bearing cyclamen stock be-
jfore Xmas, to assure early blooming plants, and
claim the finest commercial strain in this coun-
try; no fizzle of many so-called English varieties.
Our aim is strong growers that don't have to be
petted to be grown into a choice salable plant —
a well built, five-petaled flower (many of them
at one time), with well marked foliage; every
plant an Ideal, a prize winner. Received first
prize at the Cleveland show and first and second
at Toledo, early November, when blooming cyc-
lamen were scarce.
STRONG AUGUST SOWN SEEDLINGS, once
transplanted, $3.50 per 100; $30.00 per 1000.

NEED FOR NEW VABIETIBS.
[Ooncluded from page 12.]
committee has spent a good deal of
time in examining and describing kinds
that might much better have been con-
fined to the originator's own premises,
but I think those ddys are over, and it
is just by setting up a high standard
that we can prevent them from recur-,
ring.
"Now, I know that the professional
man often feels that he cannot be both-
ered with a batch of seedlings every
year — they take too much attention.
That may be true for him, but certainly
for the amateur, who does not have to
look to his garden as a source of profit,
it is always possible to set aside a cor-
ner for the 'youngsters,' and the thrill
with which the peony enthusiast sees
his first blooms open every year is much
intensified if there are even a couple
of dozen new ones to be watched as
they gradually develop their beauty.
Only it cannot be too often said that
if he will avoid disappointments he
must be particular as to the source of
his seed and take only the best. ' '
ANTS ON PEONIES.
Will you kindly tell us how to keep
red ants from molesting peony plants?
They prevent the plants from blooming.
S. F. S.
The ants will not harm your peonies
and it is a mistake to blame them for
the plants flowering poorly. Frequent
inquiries are received as to how to get
rid of them on peonies when the plants
are in flower. They do no harm what-
ever to the buds or flowers, but are at-
tracted by the juices exuded. To get
rid of ants, water the ground about
their haunts with Vermifce,4)ne part to
300 parts of water, or poison them with
powdered sugar to which has been
added some finely powdered potassium
cyanide. The latter is a deadly poison
and must be handled with care.
C. W.
Aberdeen, S. D. — R. Strohmefer, who
recently sold his store to Miss Elizabeth
Youreman and Mrs. Minnidelle Kron-
enberger, will devote himself to grow-
ing carnations and developing roots and
bulbs. He is contemplating a consider-
able enlargement of his range to ac-
commodate this business.

two previous years. There was an ex-
cellent display of roses, sweet peas,
perennials, vegetables and fruits, but
the entries were not quite so many this
year, as a great many of the best hy-
brid tea and tea roses were past per-
fection, the drying winds and hot sun
of the last five or six days having
been extremely hard on roses. Still
there was a good display.

Greenhouse Heating.
SuBSCR3£Bs are invited to write the
Editor of this Department with regard
to any details of greenhouse heating that
are not understood. But please do not
ask The Beview to mgke a choice of
apparatus for you. The greenhouse
heating equipment advertised in this
paper is, we believe, the best for the
trade to buy, and each article the best
in the special field of its adaptation.
THE COAI. MABKET.
Present conditions in the coal business
tend still further to confirm the opinion
that has been uttered and reuttered by
students of the market during the last
few weeks, to the effect that the lowest
level has been reached and passed in the
coal business and in other lines of trade,
■and that the nation 's commerce is now
on the up grade, though the rate of up-
ward motion will naturally be slow until
the needed impetus is gradually ac-
quired. Perhaps the situation as it now
exists cannot be better described than
by the following quotation from the
Black Diamond:
"The one impression which seems to
be gaining ground the country over is
that the low point of depression has
been reached and that from now busi-
ness will begin to move in the opposite
direction. There are two or three bases
for this belief. The first is the assurance
that crops will be big. The second is a
definite opinion that railroads are going
to get a certain increase in rate, even
though not the full measure of advance
asked for. The third is that stocks
everywhere are so low that any increase
in buying anywhere will automatically
bring an increase in production. The
fourth is that buying has been delayed
so long in many necessities that ordinary
business this fall will demand a rush
movement and consequently there will
be a shortage of cars. The real increase
in business, taken together with the
psychological effect of a car shortage,
will give a definite impression that busi-
ness is distinctly improved, and this is
expected to carry trade off the dead cen-
ter on which it has been for the last few
months.
"The lake trade has been peculiarly
quiet. Reports recently compiled show
that up to June 1 the movement of iron
ore down the lakes was just about fifty
per cent of what it was last year, and
1913 was not a record-breaker. This has
meant, of course, a small supply of boats
for the upward movement of coal, and
this put a blockade upon coal movement
to an almost unprecedented extent. Some
improvement in that direction, however,
is in sight.
"There is a definite impression in the
Chicago coal trade that the low point in
the depression has been reached and
passed. The first indication is that buy-
ing of coal has taken on greater activ-
ity. Also prospects are distinctly bet-
ter. The smokeless coal trade is fairly
satisfactory. Apartment houses are be-
ginning to appreciate that deliveries of

coal can be made now most cheaply by
the retail dealers, and as a consequence
they are buying. This buying is ahead
of what was the case last year. This
movement is solidifying the smokeless
coal market. Last year the new smoke-
less price circdl«t was^-c*Sfel(Jered uncer-
tain for a long time because the apart-
ment houses were waiting for a reduc-
tion in the retail price, which they tried
to force. The smokeless market last
year did not become firm until the real

duction and consequently are buying at
current retail prices. This is having the
effect of strengthening the wholesale
prices also. Even so, a good deal of
price cutting has been done by small
producers. Also, a lot of low volatile
coal has been sold here in substitution
for smokeless. There is still a good deal
of mine-run coal for sale at $1 per
ton, but this has not altered the pur-
pose of the major companies to get $1.25,
which is the circular figure."
PIPING A VIRGINIA HOUSE.
I have a greenhouse 30x30 and wish
to know the best method of piping it
in order to heat to 50 degrees in zero
weather. The house is to be used for
a general line of bedding plants and
florists' stock. I intend to increase the
length of the house as rapidly as pos-
sible.
I have a vertical steam boiler, six
feet in height and thirty inches in
diameter, with fifty inch and three
tubes (f), which I wish to convert into
a hot water boiler.
The house runs north and south, is
twelve feet high to the ridge, and has
concrete walls two and one-half feet
high, with two feet of glass in the side
walls. There are three 5-foot benches
and two 3^ -foot side benches. The
boiler is in the potting shed, 10x30,
across the north end of the house. Please
give the size of pipes to be used and
tell me what length of house thirty feet
wide this boiler will carry. J. L.
The letter staies that the boiler has
a height of six feet, but it is not clear
whether that is the total height of the
boiler or the length of the tubes. We
infer that the former is the case, but if
the tubes are six feet in length, the
capacity of the boiler would be about
fifty per cent greater than the estimate
given.
For a house 30x30 feet, with two feet
of glass in each of the side walls, we
would use five 2^4 -inch flow pipes and
ten 2-inch returns. Place one flow on
each plate, another at each purlin and
the other three feet below the ridge.
Two of the return pipes could be placed
under each bench. Give all of the pipe's
a slope of one inch in fifteen feet and
connect the expansion tank to the high-
est point of the main flow.
The letter states that the heater is
a vertical boiler "with fifty inch and

three tubes." If that means that the
boiler has fifty 3-inch tubes, and the
tubes are four feet long, it would prob-
ably handle about 1,500 or 1,600 square
feet of radiating surface, but I would
consider it better to limit th^ amount
of radiation attached to such a boiler to
1,200 square feet. This would heat a
house 30x120 feet to 60 degrees in zero
weather.

BALTIMOBE.
The Market.
The cool weather of the last week
was probably the cause of increased
business, as trade in nearly all lines
showed a considerable improvement.
Stock of all kinds found a ready mar-
ket; good roses were especially in de-
mand, with a rather insufficient supply.
Some good carnations are still coming
in and are finding a ready sale. Lilies
are still plentiful, with a fair demand.

The Florists' Revkw
Jvm 25, 1914.
Greens of all kinds are now to be had
in any quantity, but the demand is only
fair. The quantity of cut stock is de-
-creasing, but that which is coming in
is of fairly good quality. Outdoor peas
are still holding up well, despite the ex-
ceptionally dry weather. The scarcity
of stock was evident from the absence
of the street merchants on Saturday.
None of them were at their usual
liaunts in the shopping district, which
speaks well for the general clean-up in
the wholesale houses. Some late peonies
"were seen, but were not in good demand.
Club Meeting.
The regular meeting of the Garden-
ers' and Florists' Club was called to
order by President Johnston, at its
rooms, Florists ' Exchange building, June
22. The weather was rather warm, but
there was a good attendance. The sub-
ject of the annual outing was discussed.
It was decided to hold it at Beull 's
park, formerly the grounds of the Bal-
timore Pleasure Club, on Monday, July
20. A committee was appointed, con-
sisting of F. C. Bauer, C. H. Wagner,
James Boone, John Nuth, James Glass,
A. G. Fiedler and William F. Ek^, to
make arrangements for the affair. The
-club donated a substantial sum and
■each member attending will be assessed
50 cents. The committee will report at
the next meeting of the club.
Various Notes.
E. A. Seidewitz is cutting some good
Maryland roses at his greenhouses near
Arlington. Business at the Annapolis
branch has been quite satisfactory this
season.
Mrs. Mary Lancaster, who for many
years conducted a florists' store on
Frederick avenue, near Irvington, is
selling her stock and fixtures and pre-
paring to retire from business.
While riding a motorcycle along the
Hillen road June 16, Park Superintend-
ent James W. Boone and Mrs. Boone
met with an accident. Two dogs ran
directly in front of the machine, turn-
ing the motor on its side and dragging
the riders some distance. Mr. Boone
got off with bruises, but Mrs. Boone was
painfully cut and has been confined to
her bed since the accident.
J. J. Perry, manager of the Pennock-
Meehan store, has been absent from the
city, attending the funeral of his father,
•who died at Frederick, Md., June 21.
There has been a good demand this
spring for bedding plants and window
box stock, but the season is now about
over, and while most florists report a
good season, they all have some good
stock on hand. The season was a rather
short one, only lasting about four
•weeks. The majority of florists attrib-
ute the sudden cessation of trade to the
long drought we are now. experiencing.
Stock which has been planted is hardly
any larger than when first set out, even
though it has been kept watered, and
conditions are exceedingly unfavorable
to all outdoor plants. W. F. E.

"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 io the very coldest weather. Your boiler has given entire
sati.sfaction. 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 flreman. The
Kroeschell Piping System with Generator works like a charm. Whewl #ant

" RICHARDSON "
GREENHOUSE BOILERS
Were first put on the market many years ago. They
were quickly recognized as possessing special ad24;)ta-
bility to greenhouse requirements and have been sold
to florists in steadily increasing numbers as the green-
house industry has expanded.
A boiler must be a good boiler— and made by a strong, depend-
able manufacturer— to have withstood the stress of competition
for so many years.
The "Richardson" line has developed with the needs
of the trade. The "Richardson" now is made in sixty
sizes, round, end feed, side feed — all sectional — for hot
water and steam. They are low priced, but, better yet,
they are fuel savers.

The Fl(»ists' Review
Jdnk 25, 1914.
ST. PAUL, MINN.
IUm Market.
The market remains quiet and stock
is still coming in plentifully. The
weather is cool and outside stock holds
up well.
The retailers who handle insecticides
are doing a good business in that line.
Prof. A. S. Ruggles, assistant state ento-
mologist, says insect pests are unusually
plentiful this year, and many com-
plaints from growers are received daily,
with requests for expert advice. Among
the most troublesome insects at this
time are the ash-gray pinion moth and
the cankerworm moth. Beetles of va-
rious kinds, as well as aphis, are numer-
ous.
Various Notes.
Holm & Olson recently had an inter-
esting window display of insecticides.
The insect pests, such as army worms,
aphis, moths and beetles, were shown in
an enlarged form and in various stages
of development by means of colored
drawings, whicn also showed the effects
of the pests on the plants.
L. L. May, of L. L. May & Co.,' spent
last week on business in Canada.
N. C. Hanson spent a few days in
Wisconsin on business.
Munich & Wahler, the west side flo-
rists, report an excellent spring busi-
ness. They are cutting some excep-
tionally fine Kaiserin roses and their
carnations are holding out well. They
intend to remodel their entire place this
summer.
Ernest Holmstrom, of 815 La Fond
street, has sold his greenhouse business
to Nyberg Bros. Mr. Holmstrom ex-
pects to build greenhouses again as soon
as he procures the sort of location he
wants.
The greatest surprise the local florists
have had for some time was sprung
by G. D. Dysinger, secretary of Holm
& Olson, Inc., when he appeared at his
desk Monday morning, June 22, accom-
panied by a box of cigars, and an-
nounced that he had taken unto himself
a helpmate in the person of Mary M.
Chalmers, of this city. The marriage
took place June 20. Mr. and Mrs. Dy-
singer will be at home to their friends
after July 1, at 176 Summit avenue.

PAWTUCKET, E. I.
The Market.
Aside from graduations, funerals and
a few weddings, there is not much busi-
ness. Stock is plentiful and the grow-
ers at times are not able to dispose of
all their cuts. The extremely hot weath-
er has forced in about everything that
would or could bloom. Carnations are
getting small and are evidently nearing
the end. Of good sweet peas there is a
shortage. Growers are commencing to
throw out the old carnation stock.
Various Notes.
Elmer King, of Attleboro, Mass., had
a busy week and reports conditions
about the same as last year.
The management of the S. S. Kresege
Co., of Pawtucket, has forbidden the
sale of flowers over the 10-cent limit,
as it is contrary to the established rule
of the store.
The town of Hebronville lost by fire
a number of trees planted along the
state highway; the oil used on the road
was ignited in some unknown manner
and scorched the trees.
Among the local winners in the an-
nual show held by the Rhode Island
Horticultural Society in Providence re-
cently were Neil Ward, of Lonsdale,
and Mrs. M. E. Jenks, of Saylesville.
Mr. Ward received first prize for the
best mixed pansies and awards of merit
for stocks and Jack roses. Mrs. Jenkir
won first prize for German iris and first
prize for sweet-williams.
Albert Warner, of the Pleasant View
Greenhouses, reports a busy week.
The nurserymen are suffering on ac-
count of the stinginess on the part of
the clouds, which refuse to given even
a little rain. B.
Grand Bapids, Mich. — William Cun-
ningham has sold the site of his green-
houses on Kobinson road and will tear
down the buildings. He will discon-
tinue this part of his business.
Salina, Kan. — On the seven acres of
land which he recently purchased, on
Delaware, Stapler and Gypsum avenues,
Edward Tatro has started work on a
range of greenhouses, 125x125 feet. The
excavation of the cellar, in which will
be placed one 50-horse-power and one
40-horse-power steam boiler, has already
been begun. The new range will be de-
voted exclusively to flowers for the
wholesale trade.

TIk Fbtists' Review
June 25, 1914.
BBAMPTON^ ONT.
The vagaries of the weather have
been interesting during the last few
wefeks. June 8 the temperature went
up to 116 degrees in the greenhouses,
and the heat was so intense that for
the first time in many years several
of the men were compelled to leave
work for the day. Last week cool,
windy weather set in, and a record
midsummer temperature was estab-
lished— 32 degrees. The results in the
immediate neighborhood were some-
what unfortunate and in the surround-
ing parts of the country the loss will
be seriously felt.
Business at the Dale Estate con-
tinues good, but aside from Beauties,
orchids and gladioli the stock is noth-
ing to boast of. Sweet peas are prac-
tically over indoors, and it will be
three or four weeks before the outside
blooms will be ready for the market.
There is no building going on here at
present, but a good deal of repairing is
being done. Fred Cox, assistant night
shipper, left for England on a three
months' trip last week, and Thomas
Dale journeyed out to Vancouver with
the Brampton lacrosse team, who have
gone west in an endeavor to lift the
famous Mann cup.
The ad convention in Toronto brings
to that city between 4,000 and 5,000
delegates this week from all over Amer-
ica, as well as representatives from
other parts of the world, so that the
florists in that city are anticipating a
particularly busy week and may find
stock somewhat difficult to secure.
W. G. P.
Duluth, Minn. — J. J. Le Borious has
been cleaning out his stock at retail at
cut prices, in order to get it down to
the lowest point possible while he is
making the extensive improvements on
liis place that he has planned to occupy
his time this summer.
Hambleton, W. Va.— H. K. Hoefner
states that business has been the best
ever this season. He has had a fine cut
flower trade, disposing of all the roses
and carnations he could grow, and dur-
ing June business in bedding ])lants has
been excellent, stock having been pretty
well sold out by June 15.

Soot
Where there is a house that is Just fuU of
buds almost ready to show color, nothing
will turn better color into the flowers than a
little soot, that can be scattered over the
benches before watering. The amount ap-
plied should not be excessive, as the soot is
very strons and may damaop some of the
foliase somewhat.. Apply Just enoush to
blacken the surface of the soil in the benches
and let it go at that. Better a little oftener
than too much all at once.

The Florists^ Review
Jons 26, 1914.
PITTSBUEGH, PA.
The Market.
Delightful weather prevailed last
week. We had a white frost two nights,
when .the thermometer registered below
40 degrees. The weather bureau re-
ported that these were the two coldest
June nights in forty years.
The cut flower business is in the un-
satisfactory condition customary at this
time of the year. Extra fine stock is
in great demand, with the supply fall-
ing short. Eoses are showing the effects
of the warm weather. The retailers are
now finishing up their wedding orders,
after which they expect to lie back on
their oars and rest for the season.
Plantsmen are making an effort to clean
up the remainder of their stock. The
growers are busy getting their roses
planted and some are still planting
chrysanthemums.
Various Notes.
Walter A. Faulk, of the Allegheny
Market, was married June 18 to Miss
Stella M. Blanerman. Mr. and Mrs.
Faulk will be at home after July 21.
Ed. Weaver, chief decorator for Ean-
dolph & McClements, reports that he
has had the busiest season in his expe-
rience and says he will retire with his
family to the mountains to recuperate
for next fall.
Wm. Loew, who is well known to the
trade, has the sincere sympathy of all
in the loss of his sister, Miss Emma
Loew. Miss Loew had kept house for
her brothers, William and John, since
the death of their mother years ago.

Points Out
Some Points
About Our Superior Way of Erecting Houses
■\\7^HEN you can keep your best men
' ' at work Inside the factory, w4ien
work's a bit slack outside, then you can
keep an oreanization of skilled men at
all times. That's our way of doin^ it.
We have a skilled foreman for each
branch of the work. We can send any-
where from two to forty men, just as a
job demands.
But when a job's done, it's not con-
sidered by me really done until care-
fully inspected by a superintendent. If
anyone can find fault with a job he
can, and furthermore, he generally 4oes.
Anything that isn't right he sees to
it's being made right.
It costs a lot of money to have a
superintendent continually on the go
inspecting our work, but it's one of the
many things that we do that makes it
possible for you to depend on depend-
ing on Hitchings.
And bear in mind that
where for business."

AMERICAN SWEET
PEA SOCIETY
Sixth annual exhibition and business meeting of national organiza-
tion, held in New York, June 27 and 28, suc^asses all previous efforts
t:SPITE the extreme heat,
^# the effects of which were
apparent in a number of
the exhibits, the annual
exhibition of the American
Bweet Pea Society, held in
the Museum of Natural History, New
York, June 27 and 28, was a complete
success and, in the opinion of many,
was of a size and quality not before
reached in these exhibitions. In at-
tendance and interest it was likewise
ahead of previous displays.
The number of exhibitors was larger
than at any show in former years and
the competition strong in nearly all
the classes. The weather conditions,
which ruined the president's display
two years ago, served him an ill turn
again this year. Mr. Sim's exhibit,
containing 15,000 blooms and thirty-
five varieties, would have been a splen-
did one had it not been delayed on the
road and subjected to the severe heat.
Notwithstanding its late arrival and
vondition, the display was set up and
occupied one entire wiog of the mu-
seum, which had been reserved for this
exhibit. President Sim took his dis-
appointment philosophically, as usual,
and' the judges awarded him the so-
ciety's silver medal.
Seedsmen's Classes.
The quality of the exhibit staged by
W. Atlee Burpee & Co. was splendid
and took the silver cup offered by C.
C. Morse & Co. for the finest display.
A. T. Boddington was a close second
in this class, and took first prize for

Betailers' Showing Stroixg.
The retail florists added materially
to the artistic success of the exhibition
and their displays were greatly ad-
mired by the large crowds of visitors.
The retailers sent fine specimens of
their art, in the shape of wedding bou-
quets, table decorations, baskets, cor-
sage bouquets and hampers. The ta-
ble arrangements and brides' bouquets
weie especially good. Those who sent
work were Max Schling, G. E. M.
Stumpp, A. T. Bunyard, Young & Nu-
gent, C. A. Dards and A. Kottmiller.
The awards w«re as follows:

came in for a large pai;t of the prizes.

The Business Session.
A fair attendance gathered in the
Museum of Natural History Saturday
afternoon, June 27, for the business
meeting of the society. F. R. Pierson
delivered the address of welcome, to
which Arthur Kirby responded, in place
of Wm. H. Duckham, designated for
this office on the program. President
Sim had no written address to present,,
but spoke briefly extempore. After the
secretary and treasurer had presented
their reports, F. G. Cuthbertson read
an invitation to the society to hold its
1915 meeting at San Francisco, in con-
nection with the Panama-Pacific Expo-
sition. This invitation was referred to
the executive committee for considera-
tion.

When the time came for the nomina-
tion and election of officers President
Sim gracefully declined renomination
and Lester L. Morse, of San Francisco,
was unanimously chosen to succeed him.
The remaining officers were reelected,
and William Sim was elected to fill the
vacancy on the executive committee.
Prof. A. C. Beal then gave an inter-
esting report on the society's trial
grounds at Cornell University and re-
ceived high commendation from A. T.
Boddington and F. G. Cuthbertson in
the discussion that followed. In this
Maurice Fuld and Arthur Kirby also
took part, and the general opinion was
that the tests should be continued, Mr.
Cuthbertson read his paper on "Sweet
Peas: Past, Present and Future,"
which appears in this issue of The Re-
view, and was accorded a hearty vote
of thanks. The society adjourned to
attend the banquet to the judges at
6:30 p. m. at the Hotel Endicott.
The Banquet.
The banquet proved to be a most
enjoyable aflfair. After the excellence
of the menu had been p\it to the test,
A. T. Boddington assumed the role of
toastmaster. F. R. Pierson responded
for the Horticultural Society of New-
York and predicted a great future for
the Sweet Pea Society, characterizing
this year's exhibition as the best ever
shown in this country. George Kerr, of
W. Atlee Burpee & Co., responded for
the judges, and President Sim for the
American Sweet Pea Society. F. G.
Cuthbertson, ajieaking for the Panama-
Pacific International Exposition, ex-
pressed the hope that the society might
meet in San Francisco next year, dwell-
ing upon the assured success of the
world 's fair there.
Joseph A. Manda spoke for the New
York Florists' Club and told of the suc-
cess of the Newport show, of which he
was manager. George Stumpp and
Robert Koehne responded for the retail
florists, whose displays did much to-
ward making the show an artistic suc-
cess. For the gardener, W, Angus
spoke and J. W. Everitt for the ama-
teur.
^Tlio seedsmen's advocate was Arthur
Kirby, of Peter Henderson & Co. J. H.
Dick responded for the press and .T. H.
Pepper for the ladies. Harry A. Bun-
yard, the hard-working secretary of the
society, whose work was so large a
factor in the success of the meeting,
and Harry Turner, who, as manager of
the exhibition, proved to be the right
man in the right place, were also called
upon to speak.

of ititerest in 4h« -sweet pea. Mendel
used it as a sutTject when trying out
his theory which has done so mnch for
hybridiswrs of sweet peas. The results
he obtained and which Imve bee* ob-
tained since his time have done much
toward the continued popularity of the
sweet pea. In the years following the
introduction of Spencer sweet peas, un-
fixed stocks threatened to disgust the
grower, but science and Mendelism
showed raisers the error of their wa^s,
and unfixed novelties are now almost a
thing of the past. With the increased
cultivation of sweet peas, came some
sweet pea troubles, and while the more
serious have yet to be conquered, we
find extensive investigations being car-
ried out in England and in America.
We look for scientists to give us a
cure and preventive for the streak dis-
ease and for the aphis or green fly,
which is doing so much destruction to
sweet pea crops in California.
We urge all interested in these mat-
ters to use their abilities to give us
remedies for these two serious troubles.
Nothing will be more w^elcome in the
near future than the news that our sci-
entific men have mastered these two
gigantic difficulties.
The Sweet Pea and the Seedsman.
The sweet pea has also been a most
important item with seedsmen the
world over. In the past comparatively
little attention was given to it and
sweet peas were found catalogued in a
more or less ordinary way. Henry Eck-
ford's was the first large house to boom
the sweet pea. With the advent of the
Spencer varieties, great possibiHtiesi
were presented, but only in England
were they fully realized. Many seed
houses came into being purely on the
strength of the sweet pea, aUt! Most of
these have been successful. In America
the houses of W. Atlee Burpee & Co.
and C. C. Morse & Co. were the first to
boom the sweet pea, and to these houses
must belong the credit of starting the
sweet pea boom in America.
At the present day we find more
notice being taken by seedsmen of the
sweet pea, and in many catalogues the
space devoted to sweet peas has been
doubled and trebled and the illustra-
tions much improved. In this respect
the English catalogues Are as yet much
better than American catalogues and
the future ought to be brighter for
American seedsmen if they will boost
the sweet pea as our English friends
have done. The American seedsmen
can do much to popularize the sweet
pea. It calls for a little extra work
on the catalogue and a little more at-
tention to varieties listed. The public
have to be educated and they can
largely be educated through the seeds-
men's catalogues and advertisements.
They have to be educated up to Spencer
sweet peas. They have to learn that
twenty-five seeds of a true Spencer va-
riety are much better and more valua-
ble than fifty seeds half of which are
grandifloras.
Popularizing the Sweet Pea.
If the seedsman will prove to them,
by giving them truR Spencers, the su-
periority of Spencers over grandifloras,

think I am far wrong in saying that
only a small percentage of American
seedsmen know a Spencer from a grand-
ifiora and'^^Qply a few have interested
themselves sufficiently to be able to rec-
ognize varieties. Such a condition of
things will never popularize the sweet
pea in America, and the sooner Ameri-
can seedsmen make a start to learn the
beauties -rtid possibilities of Spencer
sweet peas, the better it will be xcr
their sales and for the public at large.
Flower shows should receive every
encouragement from the seed tra^e,
especially classes devoted to «weet pefas- .
Prizes should be offered and aubscrip-
tions donated. New societies and horti-
cultural clubs should be a&si^ted when-
ever they spring up. It is impossible
to overestimate what has been accom-
plished for the seed trade by the nu-
merous flower shows in England where
sweet peas have been shown. The fu-
ture has much in store for American
seedsmen if they will do their part to
popularize the sweet pea.
The California Growers.

Prominent seedsmen have also stooped
at meetings to air their limited knowl-
edge of California stocks. It takes a
little more money to buy a good stock
than it does a poor one, for reasons ob-
vious to all who know sweet peas. I
am prepared to acknowledge to anyone

of the Californisk growers of -Spencer

societies has in the past been remark-

I believe it is some fourteen years
ranged for, which would stimulate th*
interest of all growers.
A Practical Conclusion.
Summing up, I cannot but see a great
future for the sweet .pea in America,
for the grower for pleasure, the florist,
the seedsman and the seed grower. We
shall have to infuse a little sweet pea
sentiment into our business in whatever
line we handle. We shall have to pull
together, allowing a little more of the
spirit of f riendsMp to mingle ^with our
competition, if we want to bring abont
such a result as I want to see and
which we do see in England.
[Here Mr. Cuthbertson gives a real-
istic description of the painstaking zeal
of the numerous English amateur sweet
pea growers, in preparing their soil, se-
lecting varieties, planting and tending,
preparing their blooms for exhibition
and finally waiting, "with thumping
hearts," while the judges are arriving
at their decisions. Then Mr. Cuthbert-
son concludes with this practical re-
flection:]
That is a fair picture of what sweet
peas are to the amateur grOwer in Eng-
land today. N«ver before has any
flower so captivated men and women
or had such an effect on human char-

to (Jalifornia growers. As long as
grandifloras were solely used, nothing
but praise was heard for California
sweet peas.
During the first few years of Spencer
sweet peas, California growers were at
a loss, as well as English growers, as
to how to keep stocks pure. When the
first lot of Countess Spencer was sent
to California to be grown, it was un-
doubtedly in an unfixed condition, and
naturally the product returned to Eu-
rope was unfixed. Immediately Califor-
nia Spencers were given a V)lack eye,
which was altogether unfair. The
blam^ undoubtedly should have rested
on the stock sent out to be grown. Cal-
ifornia has since provided an excuse for
several English stocks which were not
up to standard, which Of course should
not be tolerated. True, the English
growers were first to get onto the way
of fixing stocks and we give them
credit. They left the California grower
to find out for himself the way to do
it, which in the seed business was only
natural. At the present day there are
seed growers in California who have
developed true stocks of Spencers. It
has cost money to straighten out stocks
and has taken time, but there are stocks
of Spencer sweet peas to be had from
California which will comoare with the
besl ill England.
since the first sweet pea exhibition in
England. Today there are about 125
societies afliliated with the national so-
ciety, all having large sweet pea exhi-
bitions. What the British National
Sweet Pea Society has done for the
sweet pea would be hard to determine.
The effect has been far-reaching, and
under its guidance the sweet pea has
reached a stage of popularity not yet
attained by any other flower.
The American Sweet Pea Society is
today holding its sixth annual exhibi-
tion and I understand the interest has
urown stea.
LORISTS and nurserymen of
the state of Ohio received a
heavy blow June 25, when
the Court of Appeals, in
session at Springfield, up-
held the decision of Judge
Jones, of the Court of Common Pleas,
Clark county, Ohio, declaring green-
house crops taxable as personal prop-
erty. The importance of the finding in
this case was understood by Judges
Kinder, Donnelly and Crow, who occu-
pied the bench, and although the hear-
ing of the case took place May 25, it
was a month from that date before the
decision was given.
This decree marks the end of a de-
termined fight of several years by the
members of the trade in the state of
Ohio, led by the Springfield Florists'
Club. It was in 1907 that
the board of review of that
city first listed the green-
house stock of the growers
of Springfield as taxable
personal property. The ob-
jections of the florists were
of no avail and a test case
was undertaken. The coun-
ty treasurer, Balph B. Mil-
ler, sued the George H.
Mellen Co! for $272.18, as-
sessed the firm as personal
ijroperty taxes on the com-
pany's stock in pots and
benches, listed at $5,180
for 1907 and $5,000 for 1908.
file a petition in error and sent out a
call for cooperation on the part of the
trade throughout the state in raising
funds to carry the case to a higher
court. Financial support was quickly
forthcoming and a defense fund of over
$800 was raised. At Springfield $250
was contributed by the trade; from
Cleveland came $210 and from Cincin-
nati $115 more. Donations were re-
ceived from all parts of the state, and
florists, nurserymen and vegetable
growers — all the greenhouse men of the
st^e — rallied to the support of the
Springfield florists.
The outcome of the appeal was
awaited with interest by members of
the trade, not only in Ohio, but all over
the country, for on the decision hinged
the question whether or not, in the

First Cas^ Tried.
The case was argued be-
fore Judge Jones, in the-
Court of Common Pleas, of.
Clark county, Ohio, and re-
ported fully in The Review
for November 27, 1913,
where the judge's decision was given
in full. No light on the subject could
be found in statute books, legal digests
or commentaries, for this was the first
case of its kind brought to trial.
The defense, representing the entire
trade of the state, urged at that time
that in Ohio growing crops were not
subject to taxation. The question was
only one of the proper interpretation
of the statutes of the state. Judge
Jones found that the laws made no
such express exemption and that an
implied exemption was founded only
on a mistaken interpretation of the
words of code. He therefore upheld
the county treasurer and decided ad-
versely to the trade interests.
Trade Unites Against Tax.
Upon the return of this decision, the
florists and nurserymen supporting the
defendant instructed the attorneys to

at the time when the law was enacted.
The judges, however, failed to take
this view of the matter and returned a
decision adverse to the trade, uphold-
ing the lower court, although not mak-
ing the statement so. broad as to
include both greenhouse-grown and
outdoor crops, as Judge Jones had done.
The decision of the Court of Appeals
in full is as follows:
The Decision.
"Growing plants and growing floral
stock which, on the date prescribed by
Section 5372, General Code, were at-
tached to, inhered and were growing in
earthen soil, in greenhouses, either in
benches or in pots or other receptacles
therein, "filled with earthen soil, de-
signed and used- exclusively for raising
and growing therein plants
and other floral stock, and
which, on such date, and

afterj accordingly as the
same matured, were re-
moved from said soil, for

in the intent of Section
5560, General Code, crops

nor are they things con-

of Section 5322, General
Code, but constitute per-
sonal property within the
purview of Sections 5325,

lated sections, General
Code, and are taxable as
such. ' '

course of time, several hundred dollars
should be yearly added to the tax bills
of every large grower.
The Appeal.
Before an audience of florists, nurs-
erymen and gardeners of Springfield
and other parts of Ohio, Attorneys J. E.
Bowman and Paul C. Martin ably pre-
sented the case of the trade before the
Court of Appeals, at Springfield, May
25. Broadly stated, the argument was
that growing crops have once been
taxed in the valuation of the land and
that it would be clearly an instaiice of
double taxation to assess growing crops
of any kind as such. The grower, it
was contended, does not claim exemp-
tion for his particular class of stock,
but that the stock has already been con-
sidered in the tax value per acre put
upon the land, according to what was
clearly the intent of the legislature
The florists of the state believe 'now
that they must accept the decision as
it stands. It is not, however, so broad
as that of Judge Jones. In commenting
on it, Koy McGregor, chairman of the
tax committee of the Springfield Flo-
rists' Club and one of the strongest
fighters against the tax, called atten-
tion to the fact that "it affirms the de-
cision of the lower court only in so far
as it applies to plants in greenhouses
being prepared for sale. Inasmuch as
the court considered and the arguments
covered all kinds of stock, in frames
and planted outside, nursery stock and
vegetables under glass, you will note it
is not the broad decision of the lower
court. True, it will take in almost all
of the stock of most growers, but we
do not think that boards will be in-
clined to make the decision more bur-
densome than would result through a
monthly average tax, which we would

have asked the legislature for, whether
we won nr fort, becatree the Ohio tax
commrssion had already recommended
that nursery stock be taxed."

PLANTINO IN THE HOUSE.
Planning the Work in Advance.
With the passing of the commence-
ment and June wedding season, the
demand for carnations begins to slack-
en, and there is little pleasure or profit
in prolonging the cut of inferior car-
nation blooms. In our latitude we are
able to keep up the quality until well
into June, but after the middle of the
month the intense heat gets away with
them and the size of the blooms can be
seen to diminish from day to day. Ex-
cept for the continued failure of the
aster crop throughout this section year
after year, we would pull out the en-
tire lot of carnations soon after Me-
morial day. The scarcity of lowers,
hotvever, makes such a course impossi-
ble and makes it necessary for us to
do a little extra planning in the plac-
ing of the varieties on the ' benches.
We find it expedient to select a certain
portion of the place to be run later
into the summer than the rest of the
place, and naturally we seiect that por-
tion which is the coolest.
^ Every grdwer encounters this prepo-
sition each season to a greater or less
degree and now is the tiftie to do yotir
planning. Before we set a single plant,
we draw a sketch of the houses, show-
ing each "bed and the number of plants
it wUi bold. On each bed in the sketch
is marked the variety or varieties to
be planted on it. In this way we avoid
the co^lfttsioii and mistakes that are
sure to creep in if you plan your plant-
ing as you plant. I mention this so
early because, if you do your planning
nowj it will give you time to place your
order for any plants you may need to
make up the number of each variety
you wish to bench, and to get them
shipped to you at the time you are
benching your plants, which you will
find to be a great advantage.
Cleaning and Fumigating.
I presume that you have procured
an ample supply of well prepared soil
for filling the benches. If you have
been negligent in this, you are starting
under a big handicap, as high-grade
stock can be grown only under favor-
able circumstances and good soil is the
foundation on which good growing must
be built. After you have taken the old
soil out of the beds and made what re-
pairs are necessary to run them through
the next season, it is well to thoroughly
fumigate the houses to kill all insects
and vermin that have accumulated and
bred during the season. The intensity
of the fumigatio6 will necessarily de-
pend on whether you can empty the
hbuses entirely of stock. Where de-
tached houses are used, this can fre-
quently be done, but if the place is
built in ranges of houses, as many are
built now, there is sure to be growing
stock somewhere, which will be dam-
aged if the fumigating is too severe.
Hydrocyanic acid gas will destroy about
as much insect life as anything I know
of now, and with perhaps less danger to
any growing stock that may be exposed
to it.
After the beds have been filled and
leveled, clean the walks and the spaces
under the benches, if raised benches are
used, removing anything in the way of
old soil or litter that may have accu-
mulated. A good sprinkling of hydrated
lime will help to purify the place and
make it more wholesome for the plfthts.
Close attention to this will greatly less-
en the danger frotn leaf-spot and kin-
dred diseases which start from a foul
atmosphere while you are doing a great
deal of syringing during the time you
are reestablishing the plants on the
benches.
Filling the Beds.
" '^^ .
In filling the beds, be sure yOu pul-
verize the soil well. Lumpy soil is bad
both for the plants and for the temper
of the men who set the plants. Fill the
beds even with the sides and see that
they are well filled along the edges, lev-
eling the soil- evenly all over the bed, so
that, in watering, the water will not col-
lect in pools and leave part of the soil
dry While other parts may he getting
too wet. We place a layer of long
stable manure on the beds before put-
ting in the soil. We find this aids the
drainage and helps to feed the plants
later on, when the roots have worked
through the soil.
If possible, arrange to refill at least a
whole house at one time, so that the
whole house may be planted at one time.
The atmospheric conditions necessary
while the plants are getting reestab-
lished are good for them only during
that period, and it is taking chances
with established plants to subject them
to those conditions; hence the advan-
tage in refilling a whole house at a
time. A. F. J. Baur.
GASDEN SOIL FOB BENCHES.
Please let me kirow whether chrys-
anthemums will grow satisfactorily in
soil taketi from a gttrdeh, if the soil
has been well fed but inclines to be
heavy a^d, if left standing in piles,
becomes a little green on the surface.
I expect to plant within tbe next ten
days, using cow manure. First I put in
a layer of soil, then a layer of mantire
and then another of soil. Will the use
of sheep manure, after the plants are
put in, produce good results, or would
you suggest something else?
A. B. L.
thoroughly established and growing^
vigorously; then feeding will do them
some good. I have found liquid manure
made from sheep in 'inure to be much
better than the same manore used as a
top-dressing. Chas. H. Totty.
Chrysanthemums are not so particu-
lar as to soil conditions as are some
other plants, and soil taken from the
garden as suggested will grow fairly
good mums. Since the soil is inclined
to be heavy, it should, of course, be
more carefully watered than soil in-
clined to be light. I notice that A. B.
L. says he puts in one layer of soil and
then a layer of manure on top of that,
in the benches. I believe in incorpo-
rating the soil and manure thoroughly
together before placing any of it in the
benches.
Sheep manure is valuable for mums,
but should not be used until the plants
are growing well and are thoroughly
established. Too much feed before the
plants are well rooted, as has so often
been stated, is like feeding beefsteak
to a baby. First get your plants rooted,
MO^H BALLS FOB PESTS.
A few weeks ago the following ques-
tion was submitted to The Beview:
"Do you know whether moth balls will
be safe to use around the roots of
chrysanthemum plants to get rid of
white ants?" In my reply to the in-
quiry, in The Review of June 18, I
stated that I knew of no reason why
moth balls would be injurious, but
neither did I know that they would be
helpful, since I had never put them to
the test as a remedy.. <• However, since
my reply was published, I have re-
ceived a letter on the subject from one
of The Review's readers. A. H. Pike,
proprietor of the Bryn Mawr Flower
Shop, Bryn Mawr, Pa: He says:
"Having seen the article on moth
balls in The Review, I beg to say that
I have found them useful in keeping
away slugs and small snails from chry-
santhemums and all kinds of seedlings.
Where I first used them was at W. K.
Harris' place, in Philadelphia. An-
other man used them scattered over the
fern seedlings and he said they were
the greatest thing out to keep pests
away." Chas. H. Totty.

An address to Seedsmen that contains, also, many money-makinsr
points for all who deal in Plants or Cut Flowers
N no preceding era in the
history of industrialism in
this country has the subject
of good advertising been
more thoroughly studied
and keenly analyzed than
today. If, through neglect or inability
to sense properly the trend of the
times in a business way, a man is not
alert to perceive the essentials of good
advertising he is a sluggard in the race
and his reaching the goal of marked
success is a doubtful possibility.
Advertising is indispensable to the
development and maintenance of a
large enterprise.
Who can measure the potency and
scope of well prepared advertising?
For the seedsman who gains a true per-
spective and assiduously addresses
huHself to the task of f9llowiiig well
defined principles and rules pertaining
to successful advertising, there are no
bounds.
The strong arm of the sales depart-
ment is undoubtedly the annual illus-
trated catalogue, but the question of
advertising that is auxiliary to the
seed annual is a most vital one.
Admitting that advertising supple-
mentary to the catalogue is a neces-
sity, let us recount some of the reasons
why.
(a) There la what may be termed "the nncata-
logued class," possible purchasers to whom cata-
logues have not been sent. These aje a plentiful
annual crop, and many are go^d Mtyers. Their
names, once secured, can then be added to the
mailing list.
(b) Catalogues are usually mailed at the be-
ginning of each year and sometimes become mis-
placed in the home of the recipient. An adver-
tisement may land the order.
(c) Almost every s«>nKean Hole, General

mille de Rohan, Margaret Dickson, Mrs.

Neyron, Francois Levet, Baron de Bon-
stettin, Ulrich Brunner, Captain Hay-
ward, Duke ot Edinburgh and Baroness
Rothschild.
In the amateur classes Robert Seaver
practically swept the deck with splen-
did flowers. His baskets also were
tastefully arranged. Martin Sullivan
and William Thatcher, gardener to Mrs.
J. L. Gardner, had the best sweet Wil-
liams; Mr. Sullivan took first for
twelve vas;es of delphiniums, showing
excellent spikes. For collection of
hardy herbaceous plants, first place
went to the Old Town Nurseries, sec-
ond to the Eastern Nurseries, each nak-
ing imposing displays. M. Sullivan had
the best Campanula Medium, and Wil-
liam Thatcher took first for six glox-
inias, with excellent plants; he also
showed a fine lot of streptocarpus.
T. C. Thurlow's Som^Co. had an ex-
ceptionally fine collection of late
peonies. H. Stewart, gardener to Miss
Cornelia Warren, .displayed a large num-
ber of cut roses and a group of Hydran-
gea Hortensia. Farquhar & Co. had

The Associated Advertising Clabs,
recCTitly in BeBsioB at Toronto, adopted
a code for newspapers to which The
Review heartily subscribes, as it sets
forth the policy on which this publica-
tion for years has been conducted. The
code is this:
1. It is the duty of the newspaper first to
protect its honest advertiser and the general
newspaper reader as far as possible from de-
ceptive or offensive advertising.
2. To sell advertising as a commodity on the
basis of the proved circulation and the service the
paper will give to the manufacturer op the mer-
chant, and to provide the fullest Information as
to the character of such circulation and how pro-
cured.
3. To maintain uniform rates according to clas-
sifications and to present those rates as far as
possible in a uniform card.
4. To accept no advertising which is antago-
nistic to the public welfare.
5. To effect the largest possible coSperatioa
with other newspapers in the same field for the
establishment and maintenance of these stand
ards.
If the advertising clubs will support
their code vigorously and persistently
much good will be done, but will theyf
Experience has taught that at least a
percentage of all advertisers, however
much they may talk about applying
business methods to the purchase of
publicity, actually in practice do noth-
ing of the kind. Not all but many are
swayed by one consideration or an-
other to buy advertising wholly with-
out regard to circulation, the standing
of a publication, or the value of its
space. It doesn't take an association of
"^ advertisers to find out what a paper's
circulation is — any intelligent man can
get close enough to the truth for prac-
tical purposes — but we fear it will take
something more than an association to
keep some advertisers from buying
space with their eyes shut.
Growers who have surplus stock
should not let the dollars slip through
their fingers — nor should they experi-
ment with unproven means of reaching
the buyers. The quick, sure way of
converting a surplus into cash is to
offer it in the Classified columns of The
Review. It makes no difference where
the advertiser is located, this is the
way it works:
Please stop my chrysanthemum ad; stock all
.sold and I am busy returning checks.— Charles A.
Moss, Spartanburg, S. C, June 26, 1014.
Please discontinue our classified ad of ferns;
we had only about 2,000 and sold them all in two
days.— W. T. Buckley Co., Springfield, 111,, June
27, 1814.
MORE LOSS FBOM HAlL.
A hail storm June 21 inflicted a
lieavy loss at the greenhouses of Gustav
Obermeyer, at Parkersburg, W. Va. Not
only was a large amount of glass
broken, but nearly everything planted
outside was cut down and destroyed by
the storm. On the succeeding night,
June 22, a heavy wind storm came in
an opposite direction from the liailstorm
and broke about the same amount of
glass on the opposite side of the houses.
The wind attained a velocity of fifty-
eight miles an hour and did great dam-
age in the vicinity.
On the night of June 27 hail hit
the establishment of Walter E. Hast-
ings, South Lyon, Mich,, breaking prac-
tically all the glass on the west sides
of his greenhouses, and cutting up the
CHJCAGO.
The Great Central Market.
Business for the last week in June
turned out better than was expected.
Ordinarily there is a sharp tapering off
after the school closings, which gener-
ally end with the third week in the
month, but this year many wholesalers
report the last week in the month as
actually giving a better total of sales
than was obtained in the third week.
Business has not been quite up to the
usual standard this June; a majority of
the wholesale houses are obliged to re-
port some decrease in sales, but the
last week, compared with what has gone
before, was especially good.
A special feature of last week's busi*
ness was the big volume of sales on
American Beauties. Barelv has this
flower sold cheaper, and pfAably never
in larger quantity. While a few of the
growers were cutting little, most of
the important Beauty producers were in
full crop with the houses run for the
summer. There was an abundant sup-
ply of all lengths, and extra long stems
were so plentiful that the picked-over
accumulation of imperfect and open
flowers was jobbed off at extremely low
prices. There are reports of sales of
long Beauties at $40 and $50 per thou-
sand, while $60 was a not uncommon
price, but it should be remembered that
this was not first grade stock such as
the first-class stores require; the bar-

It is well to remember that Amling's specialty always is a grade of
Boses just a little better than can be had elsewhere in quantity. A good

gain sales were on the leftovers. One
Wholesaler admits having had two large
iceboxes jammed to the doors with
Beairties at the closing hour June 26,
but they were all cleaned out Saturday.
This week the supply has been some-
what reduced by a wave of unseasona-
bly codl weather, but there still are
enough Beauties, with a probability of
a prompt response when the weather
warms iip again.
The supply of roses is considerably
reduced. It was heavy during tbe bot
days of last week and the curtailment
at the beginning of the present week
is regarded as due only to the fall in
temperature, with the probability that
the rose supply will jump with the re-
turn of normal hftat. Mrs. Russell is
the best rose in the market, with Mrs.
Shawyer also showing up well. A few
Hadliey have arrived, but they are not
yet showing their true character.
Carnations have gone downhill stead-
ily, ih supply, but grbWers have thrown
out their poorest stock first, so that
there has been an improvement in aver-
age quality. Carnations are selling well
at usual Summer prices.
Peonies are practically over. There
Will be a few for some weeks yet, bnt
they Kave disappeared from most of
the price lists. Since the glut passed
peonies have done well. Those now on
hand are selling excellently. Easter
)ilies are in larger supply, growers hav-
ing timed crops to fill the void left by
tjie departure of the peonies. Weather
good enough quality to attract atten-
tion. Sweet peas have taken a new
l^ase of life as the result of a few cool
days, but most growers had tifrown
them out. The call for valley is falling
off. Cattleyas are not in large supply,
but many of them are extremely fine.
Such summer flowers as gaillardia, co-
reopsis, achillea and feverfew are sell-
ing better than usual. The greens mar-
ket is quiet.
Practically all the wholesale houses
have joined in the 5 o'clock closing
through the summer and there is agita-
tion to close all day Sunday during the
same months. It does not seem likely, .
however, that anything will come of
the Sunday proposition. While the
houses that do only local business gen-
erally favor the idea, those which do
shilling business on first presentation
refuse to consider such a suggestion.
€). W. 'Prese, for instance, says thai
Poehlmann Bros. Co. shipped fifty-one
boxes of flowers in the half day June 28.
To test the matter out, Bassett & Wash-
burn, who do a large Shipping trade,
headed a list of those agreeing to Sun-
day closing and one of their employees
circulated it June 30^ All but three of
the wholesalers signed, yifp stating that
they will do so if all the others will —
and there the mrftter rests for the pres-
ent. An alternative suggestion is to
let those who are off every other Sun-
day also have Saturday -sfliemoon.
Various Notes.
Outings are scheduled for two con-
secutive Sundays. The Cook County
Florists' Association has put up posters
announcing a Jake trip on the Theodore
Roosevelt to Michigan City July 12. It
is understood that the Chicago Florists'

still coming in and meeting with a fair
demand at moderate prices. LiLiep,bave

for worth-while stock. Valley was not
in as good demand as last week, due,
no doubt, to the decrease in weddings.

The Eastern Market.
The season closes with lighter supply
and lighter demand. The stock of poor
flowers is much larger than of the good
ones and orders require careful selection.
Valley continues one of the leading
flowers; it has been in supply lighter
than the demand for several weeks.
Mock is proving itself a great warm
weather pink rose. Bussell is good and
Taft excellent, where color is not
needed. Double White Eallarney seems
a good thing. The few Kaiserin and
Shawyer are useful, but Maryland and
Killarney are hardly up to market re-
quirements. Beauties are in fair crop
and sell pretty well when good.
Of the other flowers it is not neces-
sary to say much. Centaurea has come,
as have asters, although, unlike the first
named, they are not yet good. Gladioli
are rather late in coming into crop.
Sweet peas are going down hill.
Ohrysanthemums.
Robert A. Craig says that the wrinkle
of planting two small plants together
has proved satisfactory; this season he
is benching about 30,000 double plants
at his company's West Philadelphia
place. He is a believer in soft wood
stock that will go right ahead and has
prepared nearly twice that many young
plants for shipping. Bamapo, the im-
proved Col. Appleton, is so good a va-
riety, Mr. Craig says,- that he is plant-
ing it largely. His list includes all the
better kinds.

J. Max Nitzschke baa cleverly fash-

the trustees, who had the affair in hand.
President Wallace J. Pilcher, who was
toastmaster, sat at the head table, the
others there being ex-presidents, FVank
Fillmore, George B. Windier, R. J. Wind-
ier and J. J. Beneke, each accompanied
by his wife. The menu was a splendid
one, the best the club ever has had.
While the guests were being served a
fine string band, hidden by a bank of
palms, played popular airs. After the
feast, Toastmaster Pilcher welcomed the
guests in behalf of the Florists' Club
and called upon all the ex-presidents
for short talks, after which he called
upon other members of the club for a
few remarks. The ladies, who never
before had been invited to an affair of
this kind, enjoyed the evening greatly.
It was voted one of the best affairs
ever given by the club in its twenty-
eight years of existence.
R. J. Windier, state vice-president of
the S. A. F., has about completed ar-
rangements for the St. Louis party to
travel to Boston with the Chicago Flo-
rists' Club on the president's special.
He says the fare from St. Louis will be
$35 for the round trip, and he is look-
ing for a large representation from
here, as he has received a good number
of responses from letters sent to mem-
bers in his territory. Now that the buey
season is ended, Mr. Windier will spend
a great deal of time in rounding up
new members for the society. Presi-
dent Wirth made no mistake in appoint-
ing this young man to this office.
W. J. Pilcher 's new rose house is in
splendid shape; the young stock has
made good growth. Clarence Smith,
formerly with Poehlmann Bros. Co., has
charge of this branch.
Last week the club trustees made
the rounds looking for a suitable place

in which to hold the florists' picnic this
month. They decided to hold it again
at Ramona park, Wednesday, July 22.
Other arrangements will be completed
by the next club meeting.
Joe Hauser, of Webster Groves, has
nearly 5,000 of his new single red
dahlias planted out. These met with a
great demand last year, causing him to
plant double the quantity this year. He
also has a fine lot of asters coming on.
Mrs. R. .T. Windier left last ^eek
for a month's stay with her parents,
Mr. and Mrs. Adam Zender, in Chicago.
George Schmidt, rose grower par ex-
eellenoe, who has been with Werner
Bros., at Clayton, for the last few
years, is no longer connected with them.
The C. Young & Sons Co. has an at-
tractive window at the Olive street
store, showing a pond containing young
ducks and surrounded by decorative
plants. There always is a large crowd
viewing the swimming feats of the
ducks.
Oliver, Frank and Peter Sanders are
the hustling younger members of the
Sanders Nursery. Oliver and Frank
manage the retail store on Clara ave-
nue, and Peter is head of the green-
house plant out in the country. C. C.
Sanders, "the old gent," as the boys
call him, takes full charge of the nur-
sery department.
Oscar Kuehn, of the Smith wirework
shop, again captured the first prize,
offered by a Cleveland daily paper, for
the best photograph. He entered sev-
eral photographs. The one which took
first prize was an interior view of the
big conservatory of the Missouri Bo-
tanical Garden.
Among the near-by florists who called
last week were E, W. Guy, Gust Gros-

of the month are keeping the trade just
as busy as the first. While roses and
valley are used extensively for wedding
work, large quantities of sweet peas
have also been made up. Counter trade
remains fairly good, though many
people have gone to the lakes and coun-
try for the summer. Funeral work is
using up lots of stock that would other-
wise be unsalable, owing to shortness
of stem. Stock in general is in good
condition, considering the intense heat
of the last few days. Prices, however,
are low. There has been a glut of car-
nations, as 65,000 to 70,000 of them
have cpme to the wholesale house dur-
ing the week, most of them in fairly
good shape. Some of these, of course,
were shipped on consignment, and have
been sold in the streets at the low
figure of 10 cents per dozen to clear
them. Eoses can be found only in the
early morning, and for a few days the
retailers had to be content with what
they could get. Toward the «nd of the
week, however, the consignments were
heavier and of good selection. My
Maryland, Sunburst and Cardinal were
among the leaders. A large quantity of
short Aaron Wards was disposed of.
Easter lilies are scarce. Valley is not
overplentiful. Sweet peas are keeping
up their standard well; the quality is
good, but the prices are low. A large
quantity of lavender sweet peas are on
the market. Shasta and yellow daisies
are selling well. Lupines are found
useful in basket work. Rambler roses
are arriving now and are selling read-

ily. The bedding business is letting up
gradually and the growers are clearing
nicely. The whole season, it is said,
has been highly satisfactory in this
line.
Various Notes.
A representative of the Manhattan
Ribbon Co., New York, called on the
local trade June 25.
J, B. Keller Sons have had several
large weddings to attend to in the last
few days. One of the largest decora-
tions was for Geneva, N. Y., occupying
two or three days, and another was for
the Cook-Snow wedding, in this city.
H. J. Seel, of the Holton & Hunkel
Co., Milwaukee, Wis., has visited va-
rious florists here and has expressed
much satisfaction with what he has
seen of Rochester. He is a member of
the National Association of Credit Men,
who held a convention here June 22
to 26.
Flower day is one of Rochester's red
letter days. Upward of 150 daintily
dressed girls, all wearing white, carried
long-handled baskets of roses and car-
nations and disposed of them to passers-
by for whatever the purchaser felt dis-
posed to pay. The proceeds are to be
handed to the free dispensaries con-
ducted by the Rochester Public Health
Association. Something like 25,000
roses were used, as well as a lot of car-
nations. George B. Hart was elected to
serve on the floral committee, and he,
with A. H. Salter, W. L. Keller, George
T. Boucher, H. P. Neun, Pred Thomann,
Dick G. Salter, M. Keller. Fred Schlegel,
George Cramer and E. P. Wilson, was
kept busv filling baskets for the girls
nearly all day on Friday, June 26.
Most of the flowers were sold and real-
ized nearly $1,800. A lOO-dollar bill
was given for one rose.
Charles W. Curtis, of Irondequoit,
N. Y., has signed a contract with the
Lord & Burnham Co. for a new show
house, about thirty-three feet long and
of iron frame, with good, substantial

Darwin tulips are ii< ^rood request
again this season and it ap])oais tli'^y wili
he featured in most of tho fail bullj
hooks published in the east.
At the meeting of the Wholesale Grass
Seed Dealers' Association at Washington
last week the directors elected Wm. R.
.lossman, of Detroit, secretary and
treasurer.
It may interest the trade to note that
the government 's latest figures show a
year's production of beans as 11.145,000
bushel.- from 784,000 acres, or fourteen
bushels per acre.
p]Ric Sutton, second son of Leonard
Sutton, of Sutton & Sons, Reading, Eng-
land, and the firm's chief of the flower
seed department, J. Tufnail, are visiting
the seed growers in California.
Collections through June have not
been as heavy as many expected from the
volume of business done. A good many
concerns of excellent standing have failed
to take advantage of the discount for
ca^h following the .lune 1 dating of bills.
Following the report of powdery scab
on importations of potatoes from Hol-
land, Belgium and the Island of Born-
holm, Denmark, the further importation
of potatoes from these places is pro-
hibited, pending the taking of suitable
action by the countries concerned.
Honors, like troubles, sometimes do
not come singly, and it was so last week
in the case of Lester L. Morse, who
within three days was electei-icnu S«>eil Trade Asso-
ciation. oth to the postoffice and to
the public, and.
Whereas, transportation is the basis of our
modern civilizatlou, having for its end the elim-
ination of distance and of time, the widening of
our opportunities for the enjoyment of life and
for getting a living, and.
Whereas, in public transportation, the cost of
the service rendered is regardless at once of the
distance traverseil by any unit of trattlc upon the
moving machinery, and as to parcels of mcrcbao-
dise or of produce is also regardless of the
character of their contents, now, therefore. Be it
resolveil :
That the public welfare demands the earliest
possible consolidation of tlie entire machinery of
public transportation, the transportation of per-
sons, produce and Intetlfgence — railroads, trolley
lines, stearalK>at and steamship lines, — public auto
and air lines. — telegraph and telephone lines, — the
circulating and nervous system of the liody politic
— under the public service postofllce with all mall
matter in a common class, and witli low, uniform,
eost-of-tlH'-service rates, dour to door everywhere.
Other Besolutions Adopted.
Among the other resolutions adopted
were the following: Instructing the
committee on crop improvement to take

SAFETY FIRST
Is a sale, Bure a ad saue rule
to follow in the present time
of rush and hurry. A well
known transcontinental rail-
road, the pun of many satirical
joke fests, has adopted this
slogan, and their boast of not
losing alifeof the hundreds of
thousands of passengers they
carry each year is further
upheld with this policy. The
speed mania of the present
day American race— the ridi-
cule of the worJd — not only
costs thousands of lives each
year, but puts the race in the
passe class at the time when
man should still be in his
prime. Automobiles go racing
at breakneck speed on the
highways — no train can go fast
enough for the average man
— work is rushed through in
a slipshod manner, having to
get finished quickly— and it
is a continual rush day in
and day out. The strain be-
ing too great on the average
man, many fall by the way-
side, being practically a sur-
vival of the fittest. Safety
first should be your slogan
in buying your bulbs. No
cause can bring you greater
loss and disappointment than
getting poor bulbs and reap-
ing no crop. Horseshoe Brand
Bulbs— particularly Lily
Bulbs — are without an equal;
time, money and labor are
spent to standardize them to
the top notch quality that is
within human power and wis-
dom to bring them and Horse-
shoe Brand Bulbs are ac-
knowledged as the beat in
the world. Buy Horseshoe
Brand Bulbs, then you surely
will have Safety First.

The Rorists' Revie^v
July 2, 1914.
The Oovemment Experts.
In addition to Congressman Mann,
who was heard at the banquet, three of
tke government seed experts addressed
the convention. W. W. Tracy was on
the program for one of his always in-
teresting papers, "Trial Grounds;
Their Actual and Possible Value."
Prof. F. H. Hillman, head of the seed
laboratory, explained the work of his
office. Edgar Brown, who is in charge
of much of the government's work af-
fecting seed trade interests, spoke on
selling seeds at retail. In part he said:
"The seed business is an important
factor in our agricultural system, but
insofar as it is maintained on a strictly
merchandising basis, it is not fulfilling
the function reasonably to be expected
of it. When a farmer goes to one of
you to buy seeds that are to be the
basis of his crop, he expects the same
grade of .information about the seeds he
is buying as you expect from your
architect about your building.
"The seed business of the future,"
said Mr. Brown, "is going to rest, first,
on accurate information furnished the
purchaser, and second, on efficiency in
handling. ' '
WOBK OF THE AFHI&.
In sending out a revised price list of
winter-flowering Spencer sweet peas,
Anton C. Zvolanek, of Lpmpoc, Cal.,
says:
"Since sending out our first price list
four weeks ago, most of the sweet pea
fields in Califormia have been either
partly or in many cases totally
destroyed by the green aphis. This
pest came at the last moment, when we
thought that we were going to have a
good crop, and came so suddenly and
on such a large scale that the - fields,
then nearly tdl in full bloom, were
ruined in a few days. In many cases
we shall be fortunate if we save the
stock seed. This disastrous crop con-
dition makes it necessary that we ad-
vance our prices, inasmuch as the small-
ness of the crop necessarily has raised
the cost thereof."
BULB IMPORTS.
According to the government statis-
tics the imports of bulbs, bulbous roots
or corms cultivated for their flowers or
foliage, as the tariff now phrases it,
were as follows:
Year Number Value
1911 $1,642,274
1012 216,159,000 1,723,354
1913 288,646,000 1,823,307
FREE SEEDS CONTINUE.
When the conference report on the
agricultural appropriation bill came- up
in the House June 25 it provoked a
sharp debate with regard to the pro-
vision for the free seed distribution.
Eepresentative Campbell, of Kansas,
said he had received & copy of a circu-
lar sent out by an English house adver-
tising that it had received a govern-
ment contract for some forty tons of
seeds and demanded to know why the
seeds were not purchased in the United
States, at the same time attacking the
character "of the stock used for the 1914
distribution. Mr. Campbell said a
"mess" of stuff has been sent out this
year. He said cucumber and canta-
loupe seed were mixed indiscrimiilately,
watermelon and pumpkin seed were alsQ
mixed, and six kinds of poor lettuce

mense flowers are of' circular form and great substance; a beautiful

26— KENILWORTH OUT FLOWER MIXTUBB^Is a distinct class by itself,
surpassing all other strains as a cut flower or for exhibition purposes,
for inside or outside growing; the large flow'ers are carried erect above
the foliage on heavy stems, 7 or 8 inches long, in the most graceful
manner, and stand the hot, dry weather well.
28 — BIASTERPIECE — A remarkable type; the curled, wavy petals giving the
flower a double appearance, large flowers of great substance, on long,
strong stem.

Evils in Advertising.
This opportunity should not be al-
lowed to pass without the observation
that it is a course of gratification to
see the trade tending to higher ideals
in advertising. Particularly does this
apply to the pernicious offering of
premiums and coupons. In both cata-
logue and journal advertising the prices
quoted should be net and show only the
exact price at which the goods are
sold. The time has come in the his-
tory and development of the trade
when the seedsman should not demean
his business by this method. Let the
prices quoted in advertising and cata-
logues reveal the real facts.
I wish to call attention to the prac-
tice of making undignified impersonal
references to competitors in advertise-
ments and catalogues. It sometimes
happens that in territory where the
mail-order business is Iteenly • contested
a firm, in a moment of weakness, will
debase his otherwise commendable ad-
vertising by stooping to make slurring
reference to another seedsman or firm.
No names are used, but a direct at-
tack is intended, and for this., reason

always emanates from a man addicted

The lovely flower is striking by its
gay color and elegant habit, and has
in shortest time won the favor of all
lovers of Pansies. Its color is a very

showing a soft lavender blue or a
rosy lilac hue, rendered still more

SPOKANE, WASH.
The Market.
A steady run of funeral work during
the last week, calling, in some instances,
for some big orders, has helped enliven
the monotony of an otherwise dull sea-
son. A light, steady call for wedding
flowers will probably continue through-
out the remainder of the month.
Various Notes.
F. L. Ziegler, who grows orchids as
a hobby, hcM been showing some nice
plants at his store, on First avenue.
Henry Reimers is another grower who
has had good returns from this flower
during the last winter.
Growers are busy planting carnations
and making needed repairs, while the
retailers are occupying their spare time
by taking stock, preparatory to their
vacations. Miss Johns, of Hoyt Bros.
Co., has already left for a several
weeks ' rest. Miss Doyle, bookkeeper
for A. J. Burt, plans to leave July 11
for a six weeks ' visit on the coast.
A recent caller was Mr. Gussman, of
the Milot-Mills Co., at Wenatchee,
Wash. He reports business to have
been better this year than heretofore,
due, in part, to the reconstructed and
enlarged greenhouse plant the company
is now operating. L. B. H.
LOS ANGELES.
The Market.
Business was excellent last week, and
probably more flowers were sold than
in any previous week in the history of
the business, outside of the holidays.
Sweet peas are at their best. The su-
perb varieties now being grown show a
great advance on anything heretofore
seen in this market. Asters are coming
in fine order; the cool nights and dewy
mornings suit these ultra-hardy subjects
well. Baby roses are again more plen-
tiful, and gladioli are everywhere in
evidence, the varieties being superb.
Valley and orchids are plentiful and
good. Outdoor flowers are in greater
variety than ever. Greens are plentiful.
The early vacationists are already go-
ing around with their pockets bulging
with railway and steamship folders. Al-
ready a few fish stories are filtering
through from the lucky advance guard
of pleasure seekers. The mountains
never looked quite so green and at-
tractive at this season as this year, and
the many fine roads reaching almost to
the hills will tempt many to make their
trips by auto this year.
Various Notes.
A charming and eflPective ceremony
took place in the Boserie flower shop,
on Third street, June 20. The occasion
was the wedding of Emil Woelfel, the
proprietor of the store, and Erna Fisher.
It was all that a florist's wedding
should be. The office was' transformed
into a lovely floral bower, strewn with
roses, valley, orchids and all the choic-
est flowers to be had. The bride car-
ried a fine shower bouquet of valley
and orcljids. All will wish the happy

couple a pleasant voyage on the sea of
matrimony. Mr. Woelfel has,, by his
strict business integrity and pleasing
yet fqreeful personality, already made
himself many friends in the trade,
though he has not long been with us.
Everyone wishes him well.
An important business change was
announced June 27, G. W. Smith re-
tiring from the firm of Howard &
Smith. Fred Howard has purchased
Mr. Smith 's interest. The firm has been
established twenty years and does the
largest catalogue plant and nursery
business in this section, besides han-
dling important landscape contracts,
several of which are now in hand. It
is felt that it is a pity for good fellows
to part company, but the dissolution is
a perfectly amicable one all around.

The Florists'' Review
July 2, 1014.
rations were made for the July fete.
There is some doubt, at the present
writing, whether or not it will be safe
to venture in the disastrous pleasure
of tug o' war at this annual event, and
from present indications the growers
and retailers will wage their yearly
contest in baseball.
Theo. Nielson, of San Lorenzo, a man
new to us along trade lines, has aston-
ished the local trade with the wonder-
ful gladioli he has been sending to San
Francisco.
Henry Avansino is relaxing from his
usual hard labor by visiting different
sections of the state in his machine.
The Fairmont Floral Co., of which Mr.
Avansino is president, has just pur-
chased a fine big delivery truck. This
makes the second car that this concern
has purchased and with the two it will
undoubtedly be able to handle its rap-
idly growing business.
Albert O. Stein reports an unusually
fine business for the month of June.
Mr. Stein has handled a great many
large weddings and specializes in dec-
orative work.
Louis Capurro, who was formerly con-
nected with the Mayflower Flower
Shop, is about to open a new estab-
lishment in O'Farrell street, just be-
low Powell. The location seems to be a
good one and it is the wish of every-
body connected with the trade that he
may have success in his venture.
The Grant Avenue Floral Co., which
for the last two years has been doing
business at Grant avenue and Sutter
streets, decided to close out and the
manager is reported to have somewhat
surprised the trade by locking his doors
and leaving the key for the landlord.
It is said he has not been seen since.
Donald McLaren,, assistant landscape
engineer of the Panama-Pacific Interna-
tional Exposition, has returned from a
business trip to the southern country,
where he is reserving quantities of
trees and plants for the fair grounds.
Balph Stevens, of the University of
California, has returned from a trip to
the Yosemite valley. Mr. Stevens, in
conjunction with Prof. Gregg, recently
made an expedition to the Santa Cruz
islands to study the native flora.
Among those in the party were C. W.
Duesner, of Pasadena; P. Seidell, L.
George, B. W. Donald and Joseph Mc-
Dermott, of Santa Barbara, and Wal-
ter A. Hofinghoff, of San Francisco.
After thoroughly exploiting the island
country, Prof. Gregg, Mr. Stevens and
Mr. Hofinghoff made a visit to the San
Diego exposition and collected a great
many photos and interesting data on
landscape and nursery work in Cali-
fornia.
Daniel MacRorie, of the MacEorie-
McLaren Co., has engaged new quarters
in San Mateo, where he will spend the
summer.
Mark Daniels, of Daniels, Osmont &
Wilhelm, has been appointed superin-
tendent of national parks by President
Wilson. W. A. H.
PORTLAND, ORE.
The Market.
Business last week was an agreeable
surprise to all florists. Commencement
exercises at the various schools created
a heavy demand for flowers of all kinds.
June weddings were numerous, utiliz-
ing the best grades of stock. The dec-
orations in many cases were elaborate.

The funerals of several prominent citi-

Roses are of inferior quality at present.
Most of the benches have been cleared
for new stock. Carnations still are
plentiful, but the supply will soon be
cut short, as the new plants are ready
for benching. There is nothing gained
by leaving them in the fields any long-
er. Gaillardias, delphiniums, coreopsis
and peas about make up the variety of
garden flowers. Orchids and valley
have been scarce this month, with the
increased demand.

FEEESIA PURITY.
We are contemplating the growing of
Freesia Purity, planting it along the
edge of carnations, in solid benches.
For early flowers, when can the bulbs
be planted and about when will they
begin to bloom t Are the flowers of the
mammoth-sized bulbs enough larger and
better than those from the smaller bulbs
to warrant double the cost in bulbs f
H. G. C.
The freesia bulbs usually arrive about
the middle of July and can be planted
at once if desired. In a suitable tem-
perature, 50 to 55 degrees at night, it
is possible to get a small proportion of
the freesias open for Christmas, but the

believe the largest bulbs will give you

NEWS OF THE NURSERY TRADE

C. Moll, a nurseryman from Bombay.
India, has purchased two and one-half
acres on Ninth street, North Sacramento,
Oal., on which he will establish a nursery
for rSre plants and shrubbery. He has
brought with hun many seeds and cut-
tings of plants of southern Asia, which
he will attempt to grow in this country.
MiNNEsqTA nurserymen had an ex-
tremely short season for planting a large
■quantity of stock this spring. The sud-
den change, in one day, from winter to
summer weather, which took place in the
latter part of May, was followed by
heavy rains, causing a sudden, rapid
growth in plants of all kinds. Much
stock, it is predicted, will suffer severely
next spring unless well matured before
killing frosts come.
An obituary notice in The Eeview of
April 16 was the means by which Oliver
Brown, who hss a good landscape gar-
dening business at Duluth, Minn., learned
the address of his brother, of whom he
had not heard for twenty years. Ed-
ward James Brown, who died at East
Bridgewater, Mass., April 2, came to this
•country when a young man and estab-
lished a large vegetable business, but
was lost track of by his brother till he
read his death notice.
THE CI.EVELAND CONVENTION.
[For a full report of the opening days of the
jiunual meeting of the A. A. N., committee re-
ports, papers read, and discussions, see last
week's Issue of The Review.]
Officers Elected.
At its thirty-ninth annual convention
at Cleveland last week Detroit was se-
lected as the place for the fortieth con-
vention, to be held the fourth week in
June, 1915. Officers were elected as
follows:
President — H. B. Chase, of Chase,
Ala.
Vice-president — E. S. Welch, of Shen-
andoah, la.
Treasurer — ^Peter Youngers, of Gen-
eva, Neb., reelected.
Secretary — John Hall, of Eochester,
N. Y., reelected. Mr. Hall undertook
to resign, but was not permitted to do
80. His plea was that he had not the
time for the work and it was decided
to provide funds for the employment of
an assistant until such time as the ex-
ecutive board selects a man to give his
entire time to the work of the associa-
tion as a permanent salaried secretary.

THE LAW IN NEW YOBE.
[An extract from the report of the committee
on legislation east of the Mississippi river, pre-
sented at the Cleveland convention of th« Ameri-
can Association of Nurserymen, June 24, by the
chairman, William Pitkin, of Rochester, N. Y.J
In our report of June, 1913, refer-
ence was made to a bill introduced in
the New York legislature during the
previous winter, but which failed of
passage. It was again introduced in
the legislature during the session of
1913-14 and was handled by the legis-
lative committee of the New York
State Nurserymen's Association, with
the cooperation of this committee. The
bill was introduced and urged by the
representatives of the fruit-growing in-
terests, W9ith whom the nurserymen's
committee had numerous conferences,
resulting in'ilt^ Ariiiilitimi of a bill
containing no exceedingly serious pro-
visions and applying only to the New
York state nurserymen.
The law as passed is an amendm* ;it
to the existing agricultural law aid
applies to the grower, wholesaler and
retailer. It provides, in substance, tl it
a certificate of inspection shall be ;it-
tached to each bundle or package, a 'id
that a label specifying the name of
variety shall be attached to each bunile
or package, and in case such bundle or
package shall contain trees of differc nt
varieties, there must be attached to
each tree therein a like label.
Provision for Civil Action.
It provides that any purchaser of
fruit-bearing trees who thinks that h«
has been damaged because the trees have
not proved true to name as labeled may
have a remedy in a civil action, and
that such action may be brought at any
time prior to the third bearing year;
but, on the other hand, it provides that
the purchas'er must notify the nursery-
man as soon as he has reason to believe
that the trees are not true to name,
even though the point may not then be
definitely determined, so that if there
is any suspicion that the trees are un-
true to name, the nurseryman may have
an equal opportunity with the pur-
chaser for observation and investiga-
tion. If such notice is not promptly
given to the nurseryman, the purchaser
would have no remedy in court.
It provides further that in any action
to recover damages "the seller shall
have the burden of proof in establish
ing that any contract not in writing,
or any provision of any such contract,
exempting the seller from liability or
limiting his liability, was fully under-
stood and agreed to by the purchaser;''
and further, that this clause must be
printed on all contract blanks and a
copy of the contract left with the pur-
chaser. The intent of this section is to
provide that when, as is frequently the
case, the nurseryman proposes to limit
his liability, the contract should be
plainly expressed in writing, and when
so expressed should be conclusive, but
should there be no written or printed
contract, then the burden of proving
that the purchaser fully understood the
limited liability feature of the agree-
ment lies with the seller. Under this
law the safer plan for both the nursery-
man and purchaser is to have a written
or printed contract covering the terms
of the transactions.
Protection for Nurseryman.
The law further provides that the
nurseryman must accompany the >hip-
ment of the trees with an itemize^' lis'
of the same, and if requested by 1 -tter
or in writing on the contract by the
purchaser at the time of purchase, the
nurseryman must show on this itemized
list the name of the county and -tate
where the trees covered by it wC
jjrown and the age of the trees sua" t^*
name and address of the person for
whom the trees were grown.
It is further provided that witlii''
five days after the receipt of the tree'
and list by the purchaser he shall com'
pare and notify the nurser: ma"
promptly of any discrepancy between

JUI'T 2, 1914.
NASHVILLE.
Tli6 Market.
Everyoue is tired and ready to be
contented with the lack of business this
hot weather. There has been a good
run of funeral business, and several
good weddings. It has been a hard
week on the growing stock, however,
as the temperature reached the highest
mark ever recorded here in June. Boses
are not at aU plentiful and the quality
is not good. There are a few carna-
tions, but they would better have been
thrown on the dump some time ago,
were it not that there must be some-
thing to work up into designs. Peas are
gone, or nearly so, and asters have not
arrived. The heat and drought have
caused the first gladioli to be inferior,
if they did not fail to bloom. We never
remember having seen the supply of
good cut flowers so low in this city.
Various Notes.
Thomas Joy, Jr., is out of the city
for a few weeks' vacation. He is
camped out on Caney Fork, fishing and
hunting. His brother, who has been
with Thomas Koland, of Nahant,
Mass., getting new ideas on plant cul-
ture, is looking after the store in his
absence. F. B,
MOTHS IN HANQINQ BASKETS.
I have a patron who has four hang-
ing baskets on a porch that is lighted
by electric lights. When she waters
the baskets in the morning the moths fly
out by the hundreds and they seem to
be damaging the stock in the baskets.
What shall I advise her to do to rid
the baskets of themf M. G. F. O.
The moths or millers themselves do
the plants no harm. They lay eggs,
however, which later produce caterpil-
lars, and these are what you must fight.
Where there are only a few baskets I
should prefer hand-picking as a remedy.
A spraying of arsenate of lead, one
pound to fifteen gallons of water, will
poison any caterpillars. This does not
injure the more tender plants, but its
white appearance somewhat disfigures
them. A spraying with white hellebore
would be eflFective, and this would not
mark the leaves like the lead. C. W.

the effects of the heat, but the cooler
weather during the first part of this
week ia expected to work a change for
the better. Among the better class of
offerings are Beauty, Taft and My
Maryland, as well as some excellent out-
door roses. Carnations are not a large
factor in the week's market. Easter
lilies are plentiful enough to take care
of all calls. . Some fine pond lilies are
offered. Sweet peas are deteriorating
rapidly and their season is near a close.
Gladioli are more plentiful, but a good
many from out of town are badly
burned. The same is true of Shasta
daisies. The supply of valley is rather
limited. Some excellent peonies still
are to be had. The supply of greens
is fully equal to requirements.
Various Notes.
The Florists' Society's annual outing
will be held Thursday, July 9, at the
Lagoon. The committee has worked
hard and faithfully and promises all
who attend a royal time.
C. E. Critchell has returned from Bos-
ton. He is enthusiastic about the co-
operation and fellowship among the
florists there and freely predicts that
their efforts will result in a convention
that will be a record.

The Florists' Review
Jut.T 2, 1»14.
DAYTON, O.
The Market.
Last week ended the June wedding
season, which has been fairly good this
year. Business at present is rather
alow and seems to have settled down
into the 'summer rut. The supply of
stock is limited to only a few varieties.
Roses are extremely scarce. Carnations
seem to stand the heat pretty well, but
good ones are hard to get. Easter lilies
have been a glut, but at present the
supply is just about sufficient to meet
the demand. Shasta daisies are in good
supply, but sweet peas seem to be on
the short side.
Various Notes.
The Heiss Co. is the third among the
Dayton florists to purchase an auto-
mobile delivery truck this year, the car
being an Overland of attractive ap-
pearance. This company has had a good
many large June weddings.
Mrs. A. I. Brunner, one of the em-
rioyees of the Miami Floral Co., is in
St. Elizabeth's hospital, suffering with
a badly fractured shoulder, which she
received while at her work last week.
Walter G. Matthews and Sam Kurtz,
of the Dayton Floral Co., spent several
days at Detroit last week.
Mrs. L. D. Johnson says that June
weddings have been numerous and that
she has had her share of them.
The Dayton Florists' Club held a
special meeting June 23, at the store
of J. F. Young, in order to straighten
up all unfinished business preparatory
to adjourning for the summer.
George Bartholomew is cutting some
fine lilies for storage bulbs and finds a
good sale for them now that cut flowers
are scarce. R. A. L.
Dalton, Pa.— C. M. Streeter, pro-
prietor of the Dalton Greenhouses, will
add another house, 26x76 feet, to his
present range during the summer.

more wholesale growers of cut flowers
and ])lants, and to induce one or more
large florists' supply houses to locate in
our state, thereby reducing our large
expense account, both on freight and ex-
press; and, furthermore, we encourage
and })atronize such wholesale growers
and insist that all wholesale growers
or firms sell their stock to the trade,
their patrons, and not to private in-
Jividuals or to department stores, there-
by diverting and injuring the legiti-

to the patrons of all whojesale firms."

Greenhouse Heating.
SxJBSCRraERS are invited to write the
Editor of this Department with regard
to any details of greenhouse heating that
are not understood. But please do not
ask The fieview to make a choice of
apparatus for you. The greenhouse
heating equipment advertised in this
paper is, we believe, the best for the
trade to buy, and each article the best
in the special field of its adaptation.
THE COAL MABKET.
During the last three weeks the suc-
cessive reports of tlie coal market have
been increasingly encouraging, from the
coal men 's point of view. Though the
improvement from week to -week has
been so slight as to be perceptible only
on close scrutiny, the improvement after
a lapse of several weeks is evident
enough. Even now, however, the change
for the better is shown chiefly in the
increasing brightness of the prospects
rather than in an actual increase of
business; or, as the reporters tliem-
selves express the idea, the market is in
a much better "technical" position.
The improvement of the coal busi-
ness, both present and prospective, both
actual and "technical," is largely due,
of course, to the more hopeful outlook
in the iron and steel trades and in other
manufacturing industries. "There is
definite improvement in general busi-
ness," it is said, "in several market
centers this week. Pittsburgh notes
that a number of iron and steel com-
panies are increasing production. Bir-
mingham, the secondary , steel center,
notes an improvement of about the
same kind. Trade development there
has been sufficient to warrant coal com-
panies in' increasing both production
and development work. Indianapolis
also savs that agricultural implement
works through Indiana intend to start

' ' The Chicago market, ' ' continues the
sanio reporter, -'is showing ti decidedly
better tone, llrst due to improvement
in Imsines*-, second, due to larger buy-
ing by rdilroads, and third, duie to -the
opening of demand which always 'ac-
companies harvesting. In some places
this has brought, an increase in produc-
tion, but generally it has cleaned up the
market of surplus coal. The major pro-
ducers are still holding at circular
price of $1.25 for mine-run smokeless,
though smaller producers have permit-
ted their sales agents to accept $1 per
ton."
THE AMEBIOAN INVASION.
The accompanying illustration is re-
produced from a photograph of a car-
load of boilers that will leave Philadel-
phia July 4 on the S. S. Roanoke for
London, England. They are to be fol-
lowed, July 18, on the S. S. Westpoint,
by two more boilers, making six in all
shipped by Kroeschell Bros. Co., Chi-
cago, to Lowe & Shawyer, London, who
find The Review so useful that they
subscribe for six copies of each issue.
Lowe & Shawyer sent to Chicago for
two boilers last year, and for four more
this season. The boilers are stripped
for shipping, all openings plugged and
the parts crated in 2-inch lumber. The
car goes alongside the steamer and the
boilers are transferred by a derrick.
The shipment of boilers from Chicago
to London has attracted much atten-
tion, but it loses some of its interest
when it is learned that the freight is
'ess than from Chicago to the Pacific

FOB FOUE THOUSAND FEET.
I am building two connected green-
houses, each 21 x 75. The houses run
east and west, with the boiler house
at the west end. The exposed sides of
the hoBses are six feet high, Tvith three
feet of glass on a concrete wall below.
The east ends are exposed. I will grow
carnations in the north house, and will
use the south house for miscellaneous
pot plants. The boiler pit is six feet
below the level of the ground and the
ground slopes one foot to seventy-five
feet toward the west, I will have two
5-foot benches in the middle and two
3-foot benches on the side in each house.
Please tell me how much piping is
needed, in Iowa climate, and the proper
way to put it in . The boiler is a tubu-
lar hot water boiler, nine feet long,
fifty-two inches high and forty-two
inches wide. I have some 4-inch and
some 2-inch pipe on hand. O. C.
■ f
For the carnation house one 4-inch
flow and twelve 2-inch returns would
be sufficient to maintain a temperature
of 50 to 55 degrees, but it would be
better to substitute two 2 1^ -inch flow
pipes for the single 4-inch flow, though
the latter is, of course, large enough
to supply the returns. In the plant
house use three 2VL>-inch flow pipes and
fourteen 2-inch returns. If the 4-inch
'main is to be used, sixteen returns
would be needed. The above radiation
is considerably more than will be needed
except when the thermometer is lower
than 15 degrees below zero, with high
wiud«. Arrange valves to cut out the
surplus radiation when not needed.
F. R.
FOR TEN THOUSAND FEET,
I have built two connected green-
houses each 28 x 150 feet, running east
and west, on a slope toward the south.
The north wall will be six feet high, of
concrete blocks. The south wall will
have three feet of concrete and thirty
inches of glass. The dividing wall will
be of wood and an iron gutter will be
used. The elevation from the south wall
of the lower house to the north wall of
the upper house is sixteen feet in fifty-
six feet. The lower house will have
solid beds and the upper house raised
benches. Both gables will have glass.
The houses will be heated by a boiler
rated to heat 11,500 square feet. Hot
water will be used. The boiler shed will
be located on the southwest corner. The
maximum tempetature required will be
60 degrees in zero weather for both
houses and we would like to know the
best wa^ to pijie the houses to obtain
the desired temperature, also the num-
ber of flows and returns. Soft coal will
be used. H. O.
To heat the houses described to 60
degrees it will be well to use three 3-
inch pipes in the lower house, as flows,
with fifteen 2-inch return pipes. One
flow can be under the ridge and the
others on the walls. Five or six of
the returns can be on each of the walls,
with the others along the sides of the
beds or on the posts.
In the upper house use five 2%-inch
flow pipes and twelve 2-inch returns.
Place a flow pipe on each w-all and
the others along the roof or on posts,
according to the construction of the

June 26 closed the great convention
of the International Rotary Club. Sev-
eral florists were present, among them
Chas. P. Mueller, of Wichita, Kan.; John
Connon, Hamilton, Ont.; Otto Lang, of
Dallas; Tom Wolfe, of Waco, and Harry
Papworth, of New Orleans, La. The
florists held a sectional meeting, which
proved of great interest, and this is the
beginning of what will be in the future
one of the biggest njeetings of the flo-
rists of the United States.' . We feel that
in the future we will have a large at-
tendance when it is realized what good
can be done.
The month of June has been one of
good business. All the florists have
been kept busy.
There have been several changes in
the florists' circles. Mrs. Richards, for-
merly with H. H. Euhlmann, is now
with Forestdale. Mrs. Hoenke. formerly
with Forestdale, will be with Kerr after
September 1.
There will be quite a delegation of

PITTSBUEOH.
The Market.
Jnne has been a quite satisfactory
month, all things considered. We have
had some of the hottest weather on
record for June, but still get some good
carnations, and roses are not so bad as
one might expect. The new crop of
home-grown roses is just coming. Kais-
erin does not seem to be much grown,
as this variety has not made its appear-
ance this season. There are some fine
Beauties,, good enough for winter, still
coming in, so that the extreme heat did
not do so much harm as did the lack
of rain for outdoor crops. We had a
hard storm June 27, with heavy r&in,
which continued long enough to soak
the ground.
That the month's business will com-
pare well with last year's is the general
report. The usual cuts of lilies, gladioli,
sweet peas, valley and cornflowers make
up the receipts at present. Outdoor
flowers, such as peonies, roses and iris,
t were. particularly fine this year.
^ Various Notes.
. The retail stores are beginning to
put on that summer look, when they ar-
range for a water lily pond and use
, palms and ferns for their window dec-
orations, with every device that will
make them look cool. The employees are
arranging for their vacations and no
doubt from now on things will be quiet;
it will be a case of living off the dead.
Mrs. E. A. Williams sailed July 1 on
the S. S. Aquitania for Europe, where
she will visit all of the prominent cities.
David Hill will spend his vacation
in and around New York and Atlantic
City.
Edward Ashcraft, of the Pittsburgh
Cut Flower Co., won $100 as a prize in
the song and story contest in the Pitts-
burgh Dispatch, which will help pay the
expenses of his vacation.
George McCallum, of the McCallum
Co., has purchased a Saxon runabout.
The boys have named it the Tinner's
Dream. George and John Sisley drove
it from Detroit to Pittsburgh.
Randolph & McClements had the dec-
oration last week for one of the largest
weddings in Youngstown, O., in years.
Walter Breitenstein, now that the sea-
son is over, has retired to his country
place at Logan's Ferry, for the summer.
Herman Zieger, of the Zieger Co., re-
ports that they have had a good season.
He is not active in the business, as his
home is at Cheswick, Pa., where he
spends his time growing such things as
he can cultivate outdoors.
William G. Duff, who for some years
was connected with the cut flower busi-
ness in this city, died June 25, and was
buried from the home of his niece in
Crafton. Mr. Duff was 74 years of age,
and was the last of his generation.

The Market.
With the school exercises and wed-
dings, business last week was- good.
Roses are small and of summer quality;
the suppljr is large. The supply of car-
nations IS becoming limited, as the
growers are already replanting. Carna-
tions show the effects of the heat. In-
door sweet peas are past; some outdoor
peas are seen in the market.
Various Notes.
The barn at Elizabeth park was de-
stroyed by fire June 24. The damage is
estimated at $5,000, which is covered
by insurance. The greenhouses were
threatened, but as a result of hard work
on the part of volunteers they escaped
with a little cracked glass and scorched
woodwork.
June 21 was rose day at Elizabeth,
park; 20,000 people visited the rose gar-
dens on that day. The interest of the
public was shown by the many note-
books and pencils. Almost as many vis-
itors are expected June 28, when the
ramblers will be at their best.
Albert Brodrib has completed plant-
ing out. He undoubtedly has the larg-
est bedding trade in the city. Ronald
Chinquin, formerly with A. N. Pierson,
Inc., has joined the Brodrib force.
Walter Miller has resigned his position
as foreman of the retail department of
A. N. Pierson, Inc., to accept the posi-
tion of head gardener on the estate of
Dr. Williams, of Prospect street.
The Connecticut Horticultural So-
ciety held its regular meeting June 26.
It was perennial night.
A. N. Pierson, Inc., Cromwell, has
carnation planting well under way. This
has been a banner year for shipments
of young stock; express cars loaded en-
tirely with young stock left Cromwell
daily during the height of the shipping
season. Building operations were de-
layed by the lateness of spring, but are
now well under way. The dimensions
of the new range have increased; the
rose houses will be five 33x500, one
50x500, and one 40x500, instead of 33x
300, as first planned and mentioned in

The Rorists' Review

Everybody Knows
In yesterday's mail there were two letters, both from well known florists, whose ability no one questions.
One of these said:
" We have been using the Skinner System of Irrigation for growing carnations in the greenhouse.
For planting time alone it will pay for itself every jear. We would not be without it."
The other letter said :
" We would not be without the Skinner System of Irrigation for our outdoor carnations, but averr-
body knows that carnations in the greenhouse cannot be watered overhead, so we have not
attempted it inside."
One man was doing what, according to the other man, "everybody knew" couldn't be done. And both
men were leaders in their line.
This same thing has happened on all sorts of crops, indoors and out. Men are doing successfully, with
the Skinner System, the very things that other men with experience in other kinds of watering say
cannot be done.
The reason for this is that there is something different in the watering results from the Skinner Sys-
tem. The only basis for jadg^ment is czperioncs with the Skinner Systsm itself.
No wonder that another large florist thanks us for "pestering" him with letters until he tried the
Skinner System and found what it really would do.
For the man who wants to know, with the least risk on a complete line ready to assemble, and the least
effort, we make the following special proposition. All we urge is that he try the Skinner System in a
small way.
Special Proposition — Complete Line
We will furnish, ready to connect to the water, one 50-foot Skinner System sprinkling line, with pipe
out to length, holes drilled, nozzles, a union fitting for turning the line, a valve, and drain cock and
roller-bearing supports to be put on the top of posts— everything ready to go together, complete, except
posts. Each joint of pipe is fitted with our new quick-acting coupling, so that the line can be assem-
bled and taken apart quickly and correctly. It cannot go together wrong. Price complete, $11.75, f. o. b.
Troy, Ohio. Additional lengths up to 150 feet for 25 cents per foot extra. If money accompanies order,
freight will be allowed east of Mississippi River.
In ordering, specify water pressure or height of tank, whether line is for greenhouse or outdoors, and
whether line will be supported on pipe or wooden posts, or suspended from roof in greenhouse lines.
Many of the most enthusiastic Skinner System users are men whom we "pestered" into trying it.
The special proposition makes it easy for you to find out what the Skinner System will do for you.

PAWTUCKET, E. I.
The Market.
Graduations are over. Although the
school committees placed a ban on
flowers in the public schools, the many
parochial schools in this vicinity used
flowers to a great extent. June wed-
dings also are about over, but although
these were numerous, at only a few
of them were flowers largely used.
There seems to be plenty of funeral
work, but aside from that and outside
work, there is but little business.
Fathers' day, which was to be cele-
brated June 21, was not observed to
any extent here, perhaps on account of
its being new as a flower day.
Cutworms have become so numerous
and destructive that Assistant State
Entomologist C. W. Loveland has is-
sued a bulletin which describes the
most approved methods of their con-
trol. Florists have commenced to re-
model their greenhouses and several
are contemplating building.
Various Notes.
A shed belonging to James Patterson,
of Ashton, proprietor of the Sunny-
side Greenhouses, and containing tools
and supplies, was threatened with de-
struction by fire recently, and it was
only through the quick work of the
firemen that his range of houses was
saved. The shed was badly burned.
The origin of the fire is unknown.
At the last meeting of the Cumber-
land Town Council, Neil Ward, of
Lonsdale, was appointed tree warden
to succeed W. Sword, of Valley Falls,
who has held the office for two years.
William Hoffman has sold about all
of his potted plants. He had his an-
nual contract with the city, which
called for 12,000 plants.
M. J. Leach & Sons had an exceed-
ingly busy week with bouquets and
funeral work.
Howard W. Vose, of the Flower
Shop, at Attleboro, Mass., was busy
last week with graduation work.
Caretaker Devaney, of Jenks park,
Central Falls, who has showed great
skill in the arrangement and care of
the flower beds in the park, has been
awarded the contract for the grading
and laying out of the lawn at the new
city hall.

FANCY FLOORS FOR x
X FLORISTS' STORES
• f ^ .
The Retail Florist who is remodeling his store can add greatly to
its appearance, at small extra cf^st, by putting in an up-to-date floor
8 SUMMER approaches, the
thoughts of the florist who
has a store turn to redeco-
rations, alterations and im-
provements to be completed
before the next season
opens. Perhaps he will go
so far as to build a new store; or he
may only add a few touches to make
his shop more attractive than it was
last year. In either case he puts his
mind at work to find something that
will make his store a little better than
the ordinary — something to give it a
distinctive air all its own.
This is the reason why it is so much
more « pleasure ta go into a florist 's
store than any other kind of a shop.
There is nearly always something that
makes it a little different. Take, for
instance, the matter of floors. Have
you ever noticed — of course, the retail
store men have — how many different
kinds of floors there are in florists'
stores? That is because the owners are
all trying to get something new, some-
thing a little less common
than plain hard maple, or
linoleum.
The Why of It.
For the ordinary shop,
whether it be a grocer's
or a dry goods store, the
common hardwood floor is
good enough. But the flo-
rist, from the nature of
his business and because
he holds his line on a lit-
tle higher plane, must put
a covering on the floor. At
first linoleum seemed to
fill the bill, but it was
soon found that this did
not prevent the wood
underneath from warping
and buckling on account
of the ever present mois-
ture. Nor could these
floors, in the long run, be
kept free from a muddy
appearance that detracted
from the looks of the
store. The only way to
avoid these troubles was
through frequent refinish-
^H' and recovering of the
floors. '
ihen the idea came,
^ly not take all the
'uoiiey spent from time to
tiDie for refinishing and
fecovering, and, by payipg.
It out in a'iiump sum. pijlji
>n a high-clas» fl«# that,
^oiiid be lasting? There-
lotc tile, mosaic and ter-
fa^xo floors came into use
>n flower stores. These,
when they do nat crack on account of
the settling of the building, are lasting
and, when the cement does not wash
out as a result of the continual wetting,
present a good appearance. Employees,
however, find these unyielding floors
hard on the feet; even one's patrons
notice the difference in comfort. These
floors are also dangerous when water
has been dripped here and there, and
to prevent employees and customers
slipping and falling on the wet spots,
as treacherous as though oiled, rubber
mats must be strewn about the floor,
in front of refrigerators, at the door
and wherever water is liable to fall.
This has created a big demand for rub-
ber mats for florists' stores, but has not
solved the floor problem. There are
almost as many complaints against
these floors as against the old kind.
Of late the storemen who are on the
lookout for a better floor have noticed
something new in this line and have
begun to ask questions about them.
These composition floors, as they are
A Floor that Gives a Distinctive Tone to the Store.
called, are new to most of us, though
well known in the building trades. You
may have seen such a floor in a florist's
store and asked the owner about it,
with an eye to your floor of the future.
The answers to many of your questions
you will find in this article, prepared
for The Eeview after a careful study of
floors for florists.
Ck>st Considered.
One of the first things that the
shrewd store owner asks about is, of
course, the cost. But in laying a floor,
as in building a greenhouse, the cost
varies, and the only sure way to know
what the bill will be is to submit speci-
fications. There is always present the
question of quality, as well as of the
freight rate, building conditions, the
presence of expert workmen, etc., all of
which change the figures one way or
the other.
For the purpose of comparison, how-
ever, approximate figures can be given.
The hard maple floors, formerly found in
most flower stores, cost
from 12 to 15 cents per
square foot ^ at the start;
finishing and annual up-
keep raise these figures.
Linoleum, also largely
used, averages 20 cents
per square foot for high-
grade material, although
department store linoleum,
like department store
flowers, can be had at a
lower price.
Jumping from the low-
est to the highest figures,
we find at the other ex-
treme tile and mosaic
floors. Of these there are
many kinds, at many
prices, but 40 to 60 cents
per square foot covers
ordinary quotations. Local
dealers handle these floors,
as a rule.
Composition Floors.
Combining a larger
number of good qualities
than any of these, and of
a medium price, composi-
tion floors are rapidly
coming into favor. Al-
though these are not at
,J)resent generally well
known to those outside of
the building trades, they
are being used more . and
more. Already ' sotafe ' of
''Ifcttni have founfl^plafles in
fhmsts' stores, and Have
given complete satisfac-
tion. They combine the
elasticity and comfort of
10
The Florists' Review
Jolt 9, 1914.
wood floors with the durability of tile,
and in price strike a medium between
the two, the approximate cost being 30
cents per square foot; some run slightly
more. They show no effects if splashed
with water, are not slippery, and can
be easily cleaned. The cost for upkeep
is practically nothing.
Combine Many Features.
These floors are, as their name im-
plies, formed of a composition of mate-
rials, which include a substance, such as
cork, to give the elastic quality that is
essential for the comfort of clerks' and
customers' feet. Asbestos is a principal
component of several floorings, such as
Asbestone, Asbestolith and Fama-Stone-
wood, and, with a special treatment,
makes the material fireproof and last-
ing.
A strong advantage of floors of this
kind is that they can be laid on any
sort of a foundation, even on an old
floor. To guard against defects in the
under-floor, if of wood, each flcjor maker
usually puts in a covering of some kind,
commonlv a steel lath, on which the new
floor is laid. Most of the composition
floors are in plastic form and are laid
somewhat like cement, although the
materials of which they are composed
prevent their being hard and unyielding
like cement. They are about one-half
inch thick and weigh from one to three
pounds per square foot. Ordinarily the
floor is ready for use twenty-four hours
after being laid, but the longer it is
allowed to harden and settle the better
the result will be. To some of these
floors a finish is applied like that given
to hardwood floors.
Harmonious in Color.
A point that is not to be overlooked
by those who consider the artistic ap-
pearance and harmonious effect of the
store interior is that these floors can
be laid in various colors and patterns.
This is of great value in a flower store,
where a bad looking or dismal colored
floor may detract much from the dis-
play of flowers and plants. A floor that
by color and tone adds to the effect of
the display has that much greater val-
ue.
This same effect may be obtained
whether the floor is laid in a plastic
form or in tiles. Of the latter there are
two kinds, cork and rubber. The inter-
locking rubber tiling is laid in small,
interlocking squares, held the more firm-
ly by the application of a liquid cement.
The cork floors, such as Dreadnought In-
terlocked Sectional Flooring and Ever-
lastic Tiling, are laid in the same
way; the latter is also laid in larger
squares and oblongs not interlocked,
but, through the manner of laying and
application of cement, fully as durable
and sanitary as the other form.
In Chicago Store.
A floor of Everlastic Tiling, shown
in the accompanying illustrations, was
laid in the store of the Fleischman
Roral Co., in the Railway Exchange
building, Chicago, by the makers, over
a white ceramic tile floor. It is com-
posed of alternate squares of green and
white, each 4x4 inches; the tiles are
five-sixteenths of an inch thick. The
cork of which it is composed makes it
noiseless, elastic and comfortable to the
feet; it is also sanitary, non-absorbent
and wears well, and adds much to the
appearance of the store. This, like prac-
tically all the other floors mentioned
here, is laid by expert workmen under
the direction of the maker.
A list of various makes of floors of
the itinds described here, together with
the manufacturers and, in some case ,
the names of florists' stores in whicii

THE MODERN FUNERAL.
"What a change there has been in
funerals!" said C.S.Harrison, of York.
Neb., in an address on "The Mission of
Beauty" at the nurserymen's recent
convention. "Sixty years ago death
was treated as a defeat. The room was
filled with the odor of paint and v;ir-
nish of the home-made coffin. No flow-
ers, no adornment. Now a funeral is
the celebration of a victory. Flowrs
everywhere in the room and on the cas-
ket, and by the modern process of low-
ering the remains so that they slovl.^
vanish amid banks of flowers, the n""
pression obtains that our departed huve
gone to the land 'where everlasting
spring abides, and never-withering flc^-
ers.' "

AT A VIRGINIA WEDDING.
Tliough the bride and bridegroom
havo left the scene, the essential fea-
tures of the event, so far as the florist
is ooncerned, are shown in the illustra-
tion on this page, which shows the deco-
rations and some of the bouquets used
in a recent wedding at Newport News,
^a. Grandy the Florist, of Norfolk,
Va., furnished the bouquets and put up
the decoration. In the view shown
herewith the maid of honor, matron of
nonor, flower girl, ring bearer and one
of the ushers are ranged in the fore-
ground. In the row at the back are the
three remaining ushers and the brides-
niaids. These latter carried silver staff
baskets filled with sweet peas and adi-
3ntii)n, which are almost obscured by
♦''*" I'alms in front of them. This is un-
lorfnnate, as these were a distinctive
ipature of the wedding and a source of
l""l' to J. \V. Grandy, Jr.
NEW RANGE AT AMES.
The contract has been let for a new
range of houses at the Iowa State Col-
lege, at Ames, la. The establishment
is to be designated as the Plant Propa-
gation Laboratories and is to be used
exclusively for educational work. The
Sow in solid beds of rich soil or in
deep benches which have no heating
pipes below them, about the end of July.
Thin out the plants so as to leave not
more than three to a hill. The hills
should be twelve inches apart each way.
Let the plants run up to show flowers;
then pinch back. This will give you a
first crop of flowers early in October
and, by careful watering and judicious
feeding, the same plants will flower con-
tinuously until Memorial day. One point
to remember is that mignonette must
have a low temperature; 40 to 42 de-
grees at night is about right, and be
sure never to fumigate it heavily.

LUMINOSA BEGONIAS.
At what time should Begonia luminosa
seed be sown in order to have 4-inch
plants for Christmas; also, what time
should seed be sown to have plants for
Memorial day? C. L. H.
For Memorial day trade sow the be-
gonias from the middle to the end of
January. For Christmas trade it would
be better to use cuttings, taking them in
May. The seeds do not germinate so
well in hot weather. C. W.

A HABDY CANNA.
There is now growing against the
south wall of my greenhouse a bronze-
leaved canna, which has not been out
of the ground for at least five years.
No care has been taken to protect it
dctring the winter, yet it comes up with
4^* more abundant foliage each year, ajad
the leaves are now taller than the
plants grown in the house. It grows
fully six feet tall and makes a hand-
some bunch of leaves. The flowers I
should call a cherry red. They are not
much to brag about and as I have had
better bloomers, I have never lifted
the plant. But it comes up and smiles
at me each year, and so I have left it
to grow in its own sweet way. I did
not know cannas were ever hardy.
Lou Hardman.
WHEN TO PLANT THE ISIS.
A reader of The Review asks, in a
recent issue of the paper, when is the
best time to plant irises. It may be
helpful to state first when not to plant
them. When not to plant them is when
they are just ready to bloom; to move
them then is too severe a shock for
them. Some growers wait till late in
the spring and then wonder why their
plants die. When the ground was in
just the right condition, we have plant-
ed them immediately after their bloom-
ing period, and with good results. This
can be done if you can change from one
row to another. But they cannot be
safely shipped at this stage.
The best time of all is in August. In
that month they have been shipped from
the Atlantic to the Pacific in safety, but
they must be packed dry. If the roots
are extra long, cut them back a little.
If packed in wet moss, they will rot.
A florist in Aberdeen, S. D., wrote to
us saying that he planted in the fall
a!nd always lost the plants. We ad-
vised him to try planting his next sea-
son's stock in August; he did so and
was greatly pleased with the outcome.
Planted then, if the ground is in good
condition, they get well rooted before
winter.
Of course they can be set out any
time in the fall if the location is not
too far north, or the work can be done
early in the spring, but the results will
not be so satisfactory as from August
planting. C. S. Harrison.
ONE FOSM OF ADVEBTISING.
The problem of getting the public to
patronize florists more liberally is one
of the vital problems we all must try
to solve to the best of our ability. Past
efforts and their Tesulto might teach us
a great deal if only we knew more of
what is being done throughout the coun-
try along this line. For this reason I
wish to state what I have done for the
welfare of the trade and my firm espe-
cially dating the great rose iestivavl at
Portland,, Ore.
^The aniiual celebration in honor of
Portland's roses is taking on greater
proportions each year, and this year, in-
stead of holding the district rose ex-
hibits in the Armory, two blocks of
Sixth street were reserved for flower
exhibits, and the support of profession-
als was solicited. While no prizes were
offered for florists' exhibits by the fes-
tival • management, «4t was suggested
that the advertisi^ returns would
prove better rewards than prizes could
be. Deciding to test the advertising
value of a good exhibit, 'we grew small
batches of our different petunias and
French hydrangeas, as well as a number
of more -uncommon plants, such as Ger-
bera Jamesoni, ismene, Hoya carnosa,
bougainvillea and Aristolochia ele-
gans, flowers of which were also ex-
hibited and added much interest.
All the street exhibits were arranged
in a natural garden scene closed in on
all sides by neat fencing. Among trade
exhibitors were J. B. Pilkington, H.
Weed, of the Beaverton Nursery, Ealm
& Herbert Co., Crout & Wilson and the
Swiss Floral Co,
Judging from the interest the erov-ds
seemed to take in the newer flowtis,
especially the petunias and French 1 y-
'drangeas, Mont Rose and Mme. Moiul-
lere, the flower growing industry has
glowing prospects for the future. The
neat souvenir memorandum booklets
given out by the Swiss Floral Co. up.
peared to make a hit, as nearly 10,000
of them were carried home by visitors,
not strewn about the streets, as is fre-
quently seen done with ordinary adver-
tising matter. It is impossible to judge
the number of visitors to these flower
displays, but 125,000 must be a con-
servative estimate for the four days of
the rose festival.
We have booked orders from all over
the United States, showing that the
rose festival draws visitors from far as
well as near. Financially we feel that
the expense incurred for this advertis-
ing is money well spent, and we hope
to see others follow in our steps.
J. G. Bacher.
BEAUTIES NEED ^ATEB.
Our American Beautie» were planted
in heavy clay soil, of which one-third
was cow manure, in which they made
a splendid growth. The second sum-
mer, after the plants were rested four
weeks and the wood was in a ripe con-
dition, I pruned them, after which I
removed two inches of soil, and re-
placed it with a heavy mulch, consist-
ing of two-thirds soil and one-third
cow manure, bone meal and lime being
added. I then gave them a heavy
watering. They started to break with-
in two days, but the breaks were soft.
We have now lost about seventy-five
per cent of our plants. I examined the
roots, finding scarcely any root action.
Kindly advise me what my trouble is.
C. B.
It is well said that ninety-nine times
out of 100 if there is something wrong
with roses, it is caused by lack of
water, and no doubt this case is one of
the ninety-nine. When roses planted
in heavy clay soil have been rested
four weeks by withholding the water
the soil gets hard and dry and it takes
steady watering for three or four idays
and even longer to get it again in the
condition that it should be to dissolve
the food that the plants require and
take from the soil. Unless the soil is
brought back to this condition the
plants will only make a little water
growth and will not make any roots.
Consequently they will take no nourish-
ment from the soil and in a short while
will die.
In starting up old plants after they
have been rested, they should be gone
over with water for at least two days,
several times a day, before any soil i?
taken off the benches, to soften the oU
soil. Then, after the old soil is taken
off, it is well to water the benches at
least once before putting in new soil.
The benches should again be gone over
for two or three days, until you are
positive that every particle of tho oM
soil is saturated. After that the plants
need a dampening down occasionally t'*
induce them to break, but don't iiHo'f
the old soil around the plants tc he
come dry and hard again after the
plants have started to make ne^^
growth, for if you do, they will sirel}
die. W. J. K-
PLANTING GRAFTED ROSES.
In June of last yqar we planted 15"
roses of the varieties Killarney, "W't"^
Killarney, Richmond and Lady Hi'li"^'
i don. They produced a fine first.crop ^
• the iall, but didpoiorly all winter, p4
haps partly on account of oyerwpfatt^ri"''
Now they are' in fine crop, lliey ^
grafted roses and we set the graft abov«
the soil. We have made a mistake, *' \
JUL! 9, 1914.
The Rorists^ Review
13
believe, and think the graft should go
below the soil. Would you advise that
^e replant them with the graft below
the soil! If so, when should we dry
thcni down and reset themt They are
in solid benches, in two feet of soil.
Should we prune them at the time of
resetting! We wish to carry them over
another season. L. G. S. & F. C.
Ill planting grafted rose plants they
should always be set with the graft be-
low the ground, to prevent the plants
from being broken off at the graft
through the necessarily heavy syringing,
and also to give the plants a chance to
make roots above the graft, which helps
the plants materially, especially in win-
ter, when the Manetti is not as active
as the roots of cultivated roses. That
fact may partly account for your roses
not doing so well during the winter.
If the plants have not made a large
growth during the year and if they
havf plenty of head room, they can eas-
ily be run over another year without
resting, by cleaning off the top of the
bed and then giving the bed a top-
dressing of bone meal at the rate of
about twenty-five pounds to 100 square
feet of bench, and on top of this about
three inches of good compost contain-
ing at least one-third manure, prefera-
bly cattle manure. If the sides of the
beds are of boards and are not high
enough to take this top-dressing, a 1x2
strip ran be nailed along the top edge
of the board to give the necessary
height. By this treatment the graft
will be covered without disturbing the
plants and they will make new roots
and should make a good growth during
the summer and fall. This i.hould keep
the plants in good shape through the
winter, besides giving a good cut right
along without losing the time which
would he lost by resting the plants and
checking them through replanting. No
pruning will be necessary, as the roses
mentioned make practically no blind
wood and therefore they receive all the
pruning they require through cutting
the flowers. W. J. K.
CONTRIBUTE TO TEST GARDENS.
In addition to the excellent rose gar-
'len at Elizabeth park, Hartford, Conn.,
and the new testing grounds being
established at Washington, D. C, the
"■ose plots at Ithaca, N. Y., on the
grounds of Cornell University, are of
importance to the trade and are being
stanchly supported by nurserymen. Pos-
P^J .'{,000 rose plants, said Robert

the market out of the greenhouse trade.
The W. B. Davis Co., of Terre Haute,
Ind., wants 10,000 boxes of 16x24 d. s.
a. for its new establishment. Mr. Davis
has asked quotations from all the
sources of supply with which he is ac-
quainted and, as indicating the state of
the market, it is interesting that at
last report he had found only one con-
cern that was prepared to quote on the
whole order for immediate shipment;
all the rest want deliveries to run along
into the new fire.
WEATHER HURTS JASMINE CROP.
In spite of the apparently excellent
prospects in May for the cape jasmine
crop at Alvin, Tex., at the .end of the
season the returns proved to be not up
to expectations. How good these pros-
pects were may be seen from the accom-
panying illustration, which shows part
of the field of cape jasmines at the
farm of the Alvin Cape Jessamine &
Floral Co. In this field were 400,000
buds; in this part of the field, also, is
shown the foreman of the packing crew,
on whose shoulders rests the major part
of the responsibility of the buds reach-
ing the customers in good shape.
For the poor season the weather is
blamed; W. L. Heller, manager of the
Alvin Cape Jessamine & Floral Co., ex-
presses the idea with the statement that
the growers were "weather trapped."
About May 1 the crop appeared to be a
few days late, but during the next
twelve days the weather was so favor-
able that the growers commenced to
look for a heavy shipping season. Just
when some of the buds seemed ready
for shipment, May 13 or 14, cold
weather, accompanied , by rain and
wind, set in for the week following.
As long as this weather continued
the growers knew there would be but
little picking, but as soon as sunshine
appeared, the buds were certain to
break rapidly. Every mail brought
large orders for buds for immediate
shipment, which could be filled only
at the whims of the weather. Sunshine
meant buds; no sunshine; no buds.
The buds matured late and the first
days of June were heavy shipping
days, but the total crops fell short of
previous records. The Alvin Cape
Jessamine & Floral Co., for instance,
failed to harvest its total crop by at
least 350,000 buds, it is stated. Next
year the growers hope to have wea,ther
a little more dependable and crops a
little more regular.
THE LABELS ON INSECTICIDES.
The federal insecticide act has been
amended by the adoption of a regula-
tion abolishing the use of serial num-
bers on insecticides and fungicides and
also prohibiting the use of the legend,
' ' Guaranteed by [name of guarantor]
under the insecticide act of 1910," or
similar phrases, on the labels of the
packages. The reason given for thus
amending the act is that such legend
and serial number have proved mislead-
ing, inducing the public to believe that
the articles to which they relate have
been examined and approved by the
government. The amendment provides
that any manufacturer or jobber who
wishes to guarantee his goods, so as to
protect the dealer from prosecution,
may attach a guaranty to the bill of
sale or other schedule, since "the pro-
tection of the dealer and not a guaranty
to the consumer was the original pur-
pose of the legend."
The new regulation is to become ef-
fective on and after May 1, 1916. In
the case of products packed and labeled
in accordance with the insecticide act
and in conformance with the rules and
regulations, prior to May 1, 1916, the
amendment will become effective on
and after November 1, 1916. Manufac-
turers, however, need not wait until
May 1, 1916, to change their labels, but
are free to make them conform to the
new regulation at any time.
FERTILIZER FOR SNAPDRAGON.

for snapdragon, liquid manure or sheep
manure raked inf Is nitrate of soda or
any of the commercial fertilizers as
good! C. D. J.
Both are useful^ but X'have had bet-
ter results with liquid manure. If you
use sheep manure, mix it with twice its
bulk of somewhat moist, screened loam.
Nitrate of soda I would not use at all.

The Florists' Review
JULT 9, 1914.
A NORTH CAROLINA RANGE.
A little over two years ago S. A.
Starr, then one of the proprietors of the
Starr-Denmark Floral Co., at Goldsboro,
N. C, leased the range in the center of
the town from J. L. O'Quinn & Co., of
Kaleigh, N. C, and H. C. Smith, of
Goldsboro, and since that time has run
this establishment under the name of
the Goldsboro Floral Co. The two years
have been spent in building up a good
business locally, and the range in the
center of town, a bird's-eye view of
which is given herewith, now takes care
of the business of the 10,000 inhabitants
of Goldsboro and ships stock to Raleigh.
The two interior views of the range,
one of the carnation house and the
other of the house of chrysanthemums
last fall, show what care is taken not
only with the stock but also to keep
the houses in the best possible condi-
tion. In this range is used the Skinner
irrigating system, and a Kroeschell hot-
water boiler heats the houses. Not only
cut flowers, but also pot plants and bed-
ding plants of the leading kinds are
grown. In the view of the chrysanthe-
mum house may be seen the proprietor,
S. A. Starr, and his wife.
BENCHING THE PLANTS.
Moderation in Shading.
Having filled the beds with soil, you
are ready to get in the plants and set
them in their winter quarters, but
before you begin digging, it will be
well to see that everything is in readi-
ness to take the best of care of the
plants after they have been lifted.
Years ago we sprayed a heavy mud
shade on the glass, to darken the house
and prevent wilting. This was never
entirely satisfactory, because, while it
prevented wilting, it also caused the
plants to become soft unless it was re-
moved carefully and gradually after
root action started. Now we put on
practically no extra shade, beyond what
was put on while the blooming stock
was in the benches. If that was taken
oflF by the rain, then we replace it
about as heavily as was considered
right for the blooming plants. In-
stead of using clay or lime for shading,
we now use whiting. Mix the whiting
with water, making it about like thick
cream. Let it stand a day and dilute it
further with water, adding a 3-inch pot-
ful of linseed oil to each three gallons
of the finished liquid. We spray this
on with a hand syringe, producing on
the glass countless little spots of va-
rious sizes. A little practice will en-
able you to distribute it evenly over
the glass, and when the work is well
done we consider it a better job than
could possibly be done with a brush
and in one-tenth of the time.
Moistening and Marking the SoiL
If the soil has dried out somewhat
after the beds were filled, it should be
moistened to the proper state before
any plants are set. Have it in just
about the same state as you prefer it
for potting. Plants set in dry soil will
suffer a great deal more than when set
in soil that is moist enough to keep
the roots fresh. We do not mix in
any fertilizer before planting. Years
ago, we invariably raked into the soil
a good dressing of ground bone, but
experiments have proved that this is
not beneficial and so we discontinued it
entirely for carnations. Now we sup-
ply what food is needed after the plants
have resumed their growth.
Many growers use a marker to si;t
the plants by. Heavy nails are driven
through a board at the distance thiy
wish to space the rows. This is dragged
across the soil both ways, marking oflf
the bed in squares. We stretch a line
down the center of the bed to indi-
cate where the center row should lie
set. A long pole, properly notched, is
used to indicate the distances betwdn
the plants. The rest of the plants are
set according to those in the center
row. We find this a convenieat and
satisfactory method. Either way is
good.
We always have a man planting on
each side, so as to bring the planting
of the entire bed right along. The ad-
vantages of this are numerous, but per-
haps the greatest benefit is that you can
follow more closely with the watering.
If the day is bright and warm, you
must follow with the watering pretty
closely, watering each plant separately,
rather than soaking the whole bed.
Then wet down the walks heavily and
spray the plants overhead frequently
to prevent wilting. The more sharply
you look after this during the first
week, the better will it be for your
plants.
The Spacing of the Plants.
The distance apart to plant may de-
pend largely on the variety being
planted, but growers differ somewhat
in opinion even in regard to the same
varieties. More beds are built five feet
wide than perhaps any other width; so
we will use that width as a basis on
which to calculate. We set seven plants
of Enchantress across a bed of that
width. If the plants are extremely
large we space the rows twelve inches
apart, but if they are of medium size
we space the rows ten inches apart. We
find that a bed 5x120 feet, containing
600 square feet, will hold just 1,001
plants. That would be 86.4 inches to
the plant, or about 8%xl0 inches. Such
varieties as Victory and Gloriosa can
be planted a trifle more closely without
crowding them in the least, unless you
get larger plants than most of us Jo
of these varieties. We do not like the
practice of putting two or three plants
together, as a rule. We do it some-
times, if the plants run unevenly, hut

if they run uniformly small we prefer
to cut down the distance between the
rows somewhat.
This spacing of the plants is a matter
of dollars and cents and is not so easily
solved as one might think. If you space
too far apart, you will add to the qual-
ity and perhaps add some to the num-
ber of blooms per plant, but you will
cut down the number of blooms per
square foot of bench space. If you
set too closely, you will add to the
number of blooms per square foot of
space, but the quality will suffer. Of
the two extremes we would most cer-
tainly prefer the former, but to avoid
either is our aim and that is the point
not always easily attained.
Digging and Housing.
Now you are ready to begin getting
in the plants. To carry in the plants
we use trays made of glass boxes. They
are of a convenient size for one man
to hsuidle and are made of material
that is found ready at hand on almost
any growing establishment. Have one
man digging and two gathering the
plants as fast as they are dug. Have
another take them right into the houses
to the planters and do not allow them
10 stand out in the sun uncovered. We
throw burlap over them while they are
Waiting to be planted, to prevent wilt-
]^S- If the burlap is kept moist, all
the better.
Tlic digger will lift a great deal more
^oii than you want to carry into the
^ouso, so the gatherers will reduce the
^«'l of soil to about the size of your
, ^t. Jf it all crumbles off, no great
I'ariii is done, but we prefer to have
'•"at much soil with the roots,
re^ ^^'^^k or ten days before you are
aa, to plant in, go over the plants
ana lop everything that will need top-
wnF y^^°^^ the plants are taken in. It
lot e^ *° shape up the plants and a
^^ ''^~ eyes will swell and be ready to
gj.^^'^ out as soon as the plants resume
nrn^ I • '^^sre is perhaps nothing more
provoking than a lot of top-heavy
plants for benching and when the plants
are being lifted is not the proper time
for topping. A. F. J. Baur.
IF STABLE MANURE IS SCASCE.
Stable manure is getting scarce here.
What would you advise us to use as a
substitute for it, in preparing soil for
carnations and chrysanthemums? Would
you recommend the manure in sacks or
a commercial fertilizer, and in what
proportions! H. E. H.
The grower who is unable to secure
an ample supply of stable manure does
not, as a consequence, need to quit busi-
ness, although he is surely up against
more or less serious inconvenience at
times. A certain proportion of manure
I consider absolutely necessary under
the present-day methods of growing,
but it is unquestionably true, also, that
elegant stock can be grown with far
less manure than most of us use, pro-
viding the soil is sufficiently well pre-
pared.
I would suggest that you select a plot
of soil that is in fairly good shape.
Plow it in early August and sow down
to cowpeas. After the early frosts,
plow these under and sow down again
to rye, which should again be turned
under in the spring, when it has reached
a height of about fifteen inches. This
should put the soil in fairly good shape
to use that summer, but it can be made
much better with another year's prepa-
ration if you will put on, instead of the
rye crop, a light coat of stable ma-
nure during the winter, following that
with plowing and sowing a crop of red
clover in the early spring. If you can
get no stable manure at all, you might
put on a dressing of the shredded cattle
manure just before plowing in the
spring. Use about two tons to a plot
100x100 feet. This ought to give you
a fairly good soil to start with, and
after the plants are established you
should find no difficulty in keeping them
in good growing condition with the aid
of judicious feeding.
The foregoing suggestions may be
modified to suit your particular soil, as
various soils need different treatment.
Some day we may learn to grow flow-
ers without stable manure. In fact, a
few growers I know have advanced so
far in the use of chemical manures as
to use only a little stable manure. A
great deal of study and a great deal of
care are required, however, in the use
of the chemical preparations, as they
are all extremely concentrated and se-
rious damage may result from the least
carelessuess or ignorance. They are safe
only in the hands of an expert.

SWEET PEAS FOR CHRISTMAS.
Will you kindly tell me what is tlio
best variety of sweet peas for forcing
for the Christmas trade? I mean one
of the Spencer varieties. B. L.
IN THE WINNING CLASS.
After a careful, critical survey of
the many fine assortments of sweet
peas exhibited at the annual show in
New York, I have selected the follow-
ing thirty-two varieties as standing in
a class by themselves, the finest in
their respective colors and shades:
Empress Eugenie, light gray and lav-
ender.
Illuminator, orange salmou.
King White, all that the name im-
plies.
Wedgwood, delicate blue.
Afterglow, bicolor, violet blue and
amethyst.
Barbara, probably the most distinct
orange salmon variety.
Mrs. J. Emmett, light apricot-pink.
Constance Hinton, fine white.
Red Chief Improved, mahogany,
shaded orange.
Charm, white arid lavender.
Carene (?), orange.
Countess Spencer, still a fine pink.
Hercules, one of the best pinks.
Inspector, one of the best orange
shades.
Florence Nightingale, lavender.
Margaret Atlee, salmon pink.
May Campbell, cream, marbled crim-
son.
Margaret Madison, sky blue.
Mrs. Routzahn Spencer, creamy pink,
in evidence in all winning collections.
Mrs. C. W. Breadmore, cream, with
pink edge.
Nora Unwin, white.
Loyalty, Avhite ground, lavender
stripes.
Nubian, one of the finest maroons.
Orchid, rich lavender.
Snowdon, a winning white.
Scarlet Emperor, probably the best
scarlet.
Stirling Stent, orange pink.
Mrs. Stevenson, orange scarlet.
Etta Dyke, still a good white.
Queen Victoria, probably the best
sulphur yellow.
Melba, orange.
Helen Lewis, rich orange pink. The
greatest improvement seems to have
been made in the sweet peas in the
orange shades, but Helen Lewis is still
much in evidence and can be counted
on as a reliable variety.

STEVENS' NEW SWEET PEA.
I have been reading the article on
sweet pecw in The Review of June 11
and thought I would tell you of a new
sweet pea I found last year among my
Christmas Pi«k. It came into bloom
about two wepks later' than the other
peas in the bed, but showed such a dis-
tinct type and such unusual vigor that
I sowed all the seed the plant produced.
The plant reached a height of about six
feet. The flowers were the color of
Christmas Pink, but much larger, the
plant commonly producing four blos-
soms on stems from twelve^, to fifteen
inches long, some being even as long as
eighteen inches.
Some of the seed was planted outside
in the spring, but we found it was
strictly a greenhouse sweet pea and if
planted outdoors became short, small
and poor as the heat of summer came
on. In August we planted some of the
seed inside and found it the most vig-
orous grower we have ever seen. The
seed was sown directly in a solid bed,
which was rather heavily manured.
Other varieties damped off badly, but
this came on splendidly and began to
bloom at Christmas, although there was
an occasional bloom much earlier.
We cut peas continually from this
planting until after Memorial day, and
today It stands thirteen feet high, close
up to the glass, and is still covered
with blooms and seed pods. Of course,
the blooms are now much affected by
the heat. To my disappointment, this
year only about one-third, perhaps not
that many, produced four blooms to a
stem, but three was the rule until the
plants were much exhausted and the
heat of summer came on.
There came three colors, that of the
])arent, a red and one lighter than the
parent. This might have lt)een due to
the fact that there were other peas in
the same house last year, but we pro-
tected the plant from the time the
otliers, which were late, came into
The Christmas Pink and Christmas
White Spencers are as fine as any you
can get for the Christmas trade. The
grandiflora varieties, while prolific, arc
not profitable to grow now, as they dn
not command over half the price of the
Spencers. C. W.
SNAPS AND SWEET PEAS.
We shall grow snapdragons and sweet
peas in the benches, using the same soil
in which we grew carnations this year.
We want to sweeten it with lime, but
do not know how much to put on.
Should it be slaked f Also, what shall
I put in the ground to make my chrys
anthemum stems stiff er. The soil is
sandy loam, enriched with stable mu
nure. A. L. H.
I would not advise you to use old
carnation soil for the crops named, il
you can obtain fresh compost. Sweet
peas must have a rich soil, one contain-
ing humus, and well rotted cow manure
cannot be beaten as a fertilizer. If
you do not have this manure, well de-
cayed horse manure will answer, or,
failing that, a liberal dressing of pul-
verized sheep manure and fine bone.
To Sweeten soil, the lime used shouM
be slaked. Use a bushel on a bencli
4x100, but do not use manure at the
same time or much of the nitrogen will
be released into the atmosphere.
A top-dressing of lime during the
growing season will help the stems on
vour chrvsanthemums. Give abundant

DAISIES AND OTHEB FLOWERS.
Will you please give me the name of
the best yellow daisy for the market;
also the name of other good marketable
liardy flowers that go well with daisies,
111 this Illinois climate? I intend to
pat in a good bed of them. J. C. VV.
The yellow marguerite mostly grown
is botanically named Chrysanthemum
Irutescens Etoile d'Or. One or two
other forms on the market carry larger
ilowers, but these bloom less freely.
Other flowers suitable for planting in
i)cds or benches are snapdragons, in
which pink is the best seller; sweet
[oas, stocks, best as a spring crop; dou-
ble feverfew, and annual flowers, such
as calendulas, cornflowers and lark-
sj)urs. Probably the pink snapdragons
■,\ould be as good a crop as you could
<^vow, they would do well in the same
temperature as the marguerites.

TO EXTERMINATE MOLES.
Can you tell me how to get rid of
<,nound moles? We have two kinds of
traps, but do not seem to be able to
catch them. They are destroying the
privet and rose bushes, and some of
the flower beds as well. Can they be
poisoned? Q-. L. A.

stabbing them, but the trap named
beats all other methods of extermina-
tion. C. W.
HYDRANGEA OTAKSA.
W^e have purchased a number of Hy-
drangea Otaksa in 3-inch pots. Should
these be planted out in the open ground
or kept in pots? They are wanted for
bloom next spring. W. M. B. & S.
I have found the Keddick mole trap
by far the best for exterminating these
little animals. If properly set in the
runs, this trap will never fail to catch
the little pests. There are several
other mole traps on the market, but I
have found the Beddick decidedly the
best. There are various other ways of
killing moles, including poisoning and
For early flowering it would be much
better to keep the hydrangeas in pots.
A good plan would be to plunge them
in coal ashes in a coldframe where
water is convenient. Plants well estab-
lished in pots, carefully watered and
fed when well rooted in the pots, will
ripen their wood earlier than such as
are planted out and can be flowered
several weeks ahead of the lifted stock.
Be sure to grow them in an open,
sunny place. C. W.

THE HARDY PERENNIAL GARDEN.
As It Looks in Early July.

nie coarser late summer varieties have
«rown too tall and before the drought

Delpbiniuns, or Larkspurs.
With the passing of the late peonies,
the most strikingly beautiful perennials
now are the delphiniums, or hardy lark-
spurs. What a wonderful variation in
coloring is to be found here! Prac-
tically every shade of blue is to be
found, and vigorous plants in good soil
oasily attain a height of seven to eight
feet, and what can be finer for cut
flower purposes? A florist's store win-
dow arranged with delphiniums looks
beautiful at this season." Use a low
tray of pond lilies and a sloping back-
ground of the larkspurs and you get a
combination which will at once rivet
attention, though all the best grown
carnations and roses may be passed un-
noticed.
I would make a plea for the use of
more of the new and strikingly beauti-
ful named delphiniums. A lew, of these
are J. S. Brunton, of the-'samo blue
shade as the well known Belladonna;
Moerheimi, a vigorous, pure white vari-
ty; Progression, nearly pure white; Rev.
E. Lascelles, with large, double, deep
blue flowers. Among the better known
varieties are Amos Perry, semi-double,
rich mauve, shaded sky blue with a
prominent white eye, named in honor of
England's greatest delphinium hybrid-
izer; Queen Wilhelmina, soft lavender;
King of Delphiniums, semi-double, dark
blue, a vigorous sort; Belladonna, sky
blue, a popular sort; formosum, deep
blue; formosum coelestinum, sky blue;
Lizzie, azure blue; Duke of Connaught,
velvety blue, lavender within. The Chi-
nese larkspur, D. Chinense, gentian blue,
should always be included; it blooms in
three months from seed; also its pure
white variety.
For anyone who wants to raise lark-
spurs in quantity, and who may not
have sown the seed yet, there still is
time to raise strong plants before fall.
Many named varieties are now purchas-
able from seedsmen, and come pretty
true. By sowing seed from a first-class
strain of mixed hybrids many wonder-
ful shades can be had, and in some cases
the varieties will equal the best named
sorts. After delphiniums have flowered
they should be cut down and a second
crop will come out to bloom in August
and September.
Aquilegias, or Columbiues.
The beautiful and graceful spurred
aquilegias now are getting past the
best, but where the ground is moist they
persist until well into July. They are
easily raised from seed and are so fine
for cutting that every country florist
should have a good bed of them. It is
best to raise a good batch each year,
for, while they are classed as perennials,
they do not in many cases live over
two years. The old forms, especially
the doubles, will persist indefinitely, but
the beautiful blue and white coerulea,
or Kocky Mountain columbine; Cali-
fornica, chrysantha, Skinneri, Haylodg-
ensis and the mixed spurred hybrids
often disappear, even under the best
treatment, after a couple of years. They
are, however, so easily raised from
seed that no one need be without them.
The dommon American columbine, A.
Canadensis, with red and yellow flow-
ers, is one of the best subjects we have
for naturalizing in poor ground; in the
rock garden^: plalited in a mixture of
shale and -]Oam, it is -perfectly happy.

fine border plants, particularly where
they can be kept moist at the root. In
addition to the old varieties, like Ja-
ponica, Gladstone, astilboides, etc., and
Buch more recent sorts as Peach Blos-
som and Queen Alexandra, the new hy-
brids of Davidii crossed with some of
the old sorts have given us some beau-
tiful varieties, possessing great vigor
and mostly growing three to four feet
high. Of these the following are extra
good: Vesta, lilac, graceful; Ceres, deli-
cate rose; Juno, violet rose; White
Pearl, silvery white, and Salmon Queen,
salmon pink. They are vigorous grow-
ers, fine for pot cultjire as well as the
hardy border. All these were in flower
the first week in July. To flower later
we have Astilbe Davidii, with rich vio-
let, rose flowers growing six feet high,
and A. grandis, white. Each of these
should have moist ground, to be seen
at its best.
I have not mentioned Spiraea Arun-
cus, or Aaron's beard, just on the wane,
which is fine either in the border or as
an individual specimen in grass; E.
palmata, with rosy crimson flowers, and
S. Filipendula flore pleno, all of which
are good garden plants of unquestioned
hardiness.

CORNFLOWERS UNDER GLASS.
Kindly advise how to handle corn-
flowers under glass. What are the best
varieties to handle and when is the
proper time to plant the seed?
H. H.
Cornflowers need similar soil and tem-
perature to snapdragons — a minimum
temperature of 45 to 48 degrees. Sow
them in rows and thin out the seedlings
where too thick. For an early crop sow
in August; for a spring crop, in Janu-
ary. The double blue is the most popu-
lar variety. C. W.
PROPAGATION OF JUSTICIAS.
Will you please tell me how to propa-
gate the justicia, or Brazilian plume
plant? I have been successful in grow-
ing a fine specimen, but have failed to
propagate many cuttings. Should the
green flower heads be removed before
the cuttings are struck? O. A. K.
The plant referred to is probably
Justicia magnifica, or its sub-variety,
carnea, now often listed with such old-
time favorites as libonias and serico-
graphis under the name of jacobinia, al-
though the old name persists in spite of
the botanists. Justicias are easily prop-
agated in the late winter. The present
is not a suitable time to strike cuttings.
The green flower heads must, of course,
be removed, but earlier in the year, be-
fore they appear, is the time to root
them in a cutting bench such as will
strike carnations or roses. They do not
need a high temperature, but require
cool greenhouse treatment all the time.
Old plants are not worth carrying over;
it is better to root young stock an-
nually. C. W.
