Davis has rightly been called "the cucumber king." This is one of bis range of ten houses at Terre Haute, Indiana, each 80x600. Note the gable ventilation. As you know, he has another big layout at Davenport, Iowa. Cukes This Fall Roses Next Spring /'^ET away from that old- ^^^ timey idea that you must plant your roses in June. Plant them the end of March. Give them a running start over June-planted ones, and they will more than make up for the few months your house is not in crop. Build your rose house now, and plant it with cukes; followed with roses in March. You can build your house this summer, when weather conditions are ideal. When the other fellow is head over heels trying to get his house ready in time for even June plant- ing, you will be walking through your house watching the roses grow huskier and huskier every day. Send for our special catalogue on vegetable growing. It will give you some helpful help hints on cuke growing. Then let's get together and talk the whole thing over. Let's make some money to- gether.

The ideas presented are not untried theories, but are an epitome of a specialist's experience. DO NOT propose to dis- cuss isolated cases of ex- traordinary profits ob- tained by producing new varieties of peonies or even by cornering the mar- ket on a rare sort. In fact, stocking up heavily on some new "queen bee" of a peony show frequently finds the grower, five years later, offer- ing the same at twenty per cent of the original cost. There may be a dozen American growers whose extensive cat- alogues and large advertising of several hundred varieties make their profit on their acre of soil a bonanza. There are just two ways to make money out of peonies, either by selling the roots or the flowers. Leading up to the subject of profits, let us consider the three contributing factors thereto: First, the roots; second, the soil; third, the labor. *<^ihie Boots or Divisions. The .roots should be young and healthy.' If divisi ms are used, have them exit from plants not over 4 years old and remove all but two strong eyes to each piece of sound tuber. The use of 1-year or 2-year-old plants saves some time, but on a given investment the divisions are more eco- nomical. Most people prefer blooms of solid colors, and mass together in lawn planting or in bouquets those of the same shade. The num- ber of varieties car- ried, therefore, de- pends on the amount of land available, as one must cut enough blooms of a kind to make a shipment worth while, and furnish enough similar mate- rial to carry out a dec- orative color scheme. For example, a florist might want 500 Euge- nie Verdier, the fa- mous ' ' baby pink, ' ' for a reception. The possible range of varieties comprises four distinct colors; namely, white, light pink, deep pink, and red, which is the usual classification adopted for exhibitions and by the cut flower trade. In By WILLIAM A. PETERSON. each of these four classes are three well defined blooming periods, the early, mid- season and late. This makes twelve sec- tions to be represented, as the goal set before each grower in selecting his va- rieties and testing out the sorts to finally grow. Ultimately one may find it necessary to carry two absolutely in- dispensable sorts in some sections. Selection of Varieties. This building of a master list, into which each tested variety must fight its way by sheer demonstrated worth, is exceedingly absorbing. In comparing the painstaking records which we an- nually make, we sometimes find that an outstanding variety, like Mme. Forel, should be finally dropped, because other kinds have superseded it. In my per- sonal study, in order not to be too ex- acting and in order to give new varie- ties every chance that is due them, I have really seven colors to divide the sorts into, viz.: First, paper white; second, cream or yellow; third, blush or delicate flesh; fourth, light or medium pink; fifth, deep pink, and rose; sixth, red; seventh, crimson and deep red. In this way we have tried out about 1,400 How Would You Like an Acre Like This ? varieties and at the present time are carrying less than eighty. Recommending varieties for other lo- calities is not an entirely safe proposi- tion and I shall only give a few notes on how certain sorts conduct themselves at our nursery. We have discarded Meissonier, because of its crooked stems. We have also rejected Mme. Emile Galle, because it has no low lateral leaves and the lack of these prevents cutting it with a long stem, whereas Octavie Demay, a dwarf-growing delicate pink, admits of cutting with a fairly good stem without injuring the plant, and is a wonder. So far with us the prize-winning Jubilee has a weak stem. Golden Harvest is one of the mixed colored kinds that florists cannot send on a definite color order, un- less the customer knows it by name. Faults of Old Favorites. Mme. Crousse is tender in our climate and often skips a season in blooming. Because Richardson's Rubra Superba has proven extremely shy, we no longer carry it, while Richardson's Grandi- flora is all that its name implies and a free bloomer besides. This is one of those unusual sorts that come into bloom over a long period; so one must have a good many plants to cut from to get a fair quantity of flowers at one time. Adolphe Rousseau is a wonderful "black," but is too loose and shows the yellow sta- mens too much. The greatly talked of pink, Lady Alexandra Duflf, is on the same order. Single-blooming va- rieties attract some people, but are not really suitable for ship- ping. La Tulipe is objec- tionable in bud, as the florists call it a " candy bud," wheroas the bud of Kelway's Venus leaves nothing to wish for. No matter how fine a sort may ultimately develop on the plant, if in the early stages of opening it is likely to * ' waterlog, ' ' like Char- lemagne, it is not worth carrying. Probably more Delicatissima are used at June wedding i than any other light pink sort. The most popular 10 The Florists^ Review Jolt 3, 1919. selling red is Felix Crousse, with its perfect bomb shape and large guard petal, which always indicates a good storage variety. Many will be surprised to learn that we have finally dropped Edulis Superba. It does remarkably well in many places, but on our records, which we have kept annually since 1888, it is i^ot nearly so dependable as M. Jules Elie and is gen- erally not more than a day earlier. In some quarters Mme. Ducel is grown, but with us it is smaller than M. Jules Elie and so similar in shade and time of blooming that we do not need it. We notice an increasing emphasis laid on the desirability of the fragrant va- rieties. Suitable Soil. Having settled what roots to carry, we will now discuss the best soil condi- tions. The soil should be rich, deep and well drained, with plenty of sunshine. For root propagation a loose loam makes the tubers admit of better dividing, but the heavier soil, with even a clay sub- 80l, produces the best blooms. Not only plenty of well rotted manure before planting should be plowed in, but also an annual mulch should be applied thereafter in the fall, but without cov- ering the top of the crown or touching the stem. Pigeon, sheep or cow manure and even some hard-wood ashes make the best fertilizer for our prairie soil. Peonies are such gross feeders that a large quantity of fertilizer, if worked in thoroughly, can be well taken care of, but no manure should ever touch the roots. For the most favorable results there should be plenty of water during the blooming period, and also toward the end of August, to make large eyes for the next season. Some of the foregoing remarks might be classified under the head of labor rather than soil. Planting and Later Attention. Now as to the labor: The planting should be done during the early part of September, in rows three feet apart by fifteen inches between plants down the row. In two years' time, if the bed is t- stand for blooming, every other plant should be lifted, divided and planted elsewhere. If there is any question of the plants having any stem disease, during the month of September, cut off the old leaf -top ; level with the ground and burn them up. The surest method of keeping the roots free from disease is to dig out and destroy every large plant, amo^ blooming ones, that has no flowers. In fact, we have made it a practice for years, in the treatment of all our stand- ard sorts, to destroy June 1 every peony plant 2 or more years old that has no buds. This avoids the possible spread of disease and also prevents the perpet- uating of shy-blooming strains of peo- nies. As long as plants bloom, we need not worry. Keeping Them True to Name. The young shoots, as they push up in the spring, are quite beautiful and dif- fer decidedly. At this stage of their development we go over our fields and dig out and throw away every plant differing in appearance from others in the same variety. This gets rid of any possible_niixtures and is the last check in our system of keeping every plant true. I may be pardoned in mentioning h'^re our 10 year-old, unique guar- antee of giving three for one for every plant blooming untrue to description. Every three weeks from May to Sep- tember we run a horse cultivator down every row, and just before freezing up we use a V-shaped potato plow to trench a furrow to draw the water away from the crown. Sufficient hand-hoeing dur- ing the summer must be done to keep the land free from weeds. Marketing the Roots. The labor of marketing the roots is mostly done in September, which is the proper time to move peonies. It is pref- erable for customers to do their own dividing, as then the cut surfaces are fresh and wither less when put into the ground. However, many purchasers dt) not know how, and for that matter we ourselves are often surprised at the poorly cut plants we sometimes receive. After digging, the tops are at once cut off, to prevent the roots from with- ering, and in this dormant condition they can travel safely for several months. In all handling of the roots great care should be taken not to in- jure or break off any of the eyes. Marketing the Blooms. Eegarding the marketing of peony blooms: Long, straight stems are es- sential, but the cutting must leave the plant to grow the balance of the sum- mer with at least one lateral leaf or, bet- ter, two lateral leaves on each stalk lefl standing. Where every terminal has a bud it is a good plan, when disbudding the side buds for the cut flower trade, also to roll off a terminal bud on one or two of the weakest stalks and thus give the plant more leaf area with which to breathe. The disbudding of all lateral buds, when the size of a pea, makes the terminal bloom develop larger. Just at what stage of unfolding to cut a bud depends on the variety and how soon it is expected to open. Several carloads of peony blooms come annually to Chicago before Decoration day from points fully 600 miles away. In Bundles of Thirteen. As soon as the stalks are cut and most of the lateral leaves stripped off in order to give more of the sap remaining in the stem to the bud, they are gathered together in bundles of thirteen of the same variety and size of bud. In units of thirteen they can be sold either by the dozen or the hundred. The buds cut when the dew is on them carry bet- ter, but if they are to be wrapped in paraffin or other paper, the petals must be thoroughly dry. If possible, it is a good plan after the bundles are tied up to stand the stems in water for an hour before ship- ping in boxes. Holding Blooms in Storage. For the benefit of those who want peony blooms much later than their nor- mal season — and this is really one of the recent developments of the indus- try— ^it should be stated that certain va- rieties of peonies when cut in bud will keep in cold storage for six to ten weeks, and upon their being taken out will un- fold in all their usual glory. We have now followed our lady love from the cradle to the grave. The sub- ject under discussion naturally eliminat- ed many other interesting features per- taining to the peony, all equally fas- cinating, such as the ancient history of the peony, the renaissance of its culture in Europe, some of its famous hybridiz- ers, a comparative study of the different shapes and types of its blodms, the va- rious styles and shapes of its petals, a classification of its fragrance, the dura- tion of the individual bloom when cut and also on the plant. , THE RETAIL FLORIST K^iy;ffifsfflf^AY Mention The Rertew whefa yon write. ties, but as a mle the wholesalers do not care to ship them, as there are too many complaints. The peonies are pretty well used up. There still are one or two lots in storage, but most of the wholesalers withdrew, June 30, all the peonies then unsold. Since the market shortened up the peonies have been sell- ing faster than was expected and at ex- cellent prices. Gladioli are not yet an important factor. Moderate quantities of indoor flowers are received and they clean out promptly at good prices. A few shippers in more southern localities are sending outdoor flowers, but most of the wholesalers have been discouraging these consignments; their attitude may change if the market becomes actually short. There are considerable quantities of outdoor flowers of one kind or another and when they are good they sell well. The Shasta daisy is having considerable popularity. The principal shortage has been of cattleyas; sales have been made as high as $2 per bloom during the last week. Valley also was short during the closjng days of June, but the demand has sub- sided since July came. Easter lilies are again in considerable supply. Sweet peas are not plentiful and few of them are of a quality to command respect. There is a good demand for green goods and the supply is equal to all re- quirements. June Business. A gentleman named Newton once evolved a law sometimes referred to as that of opposite and equal reactions, said to be as infallible as the same ob- server's more well known law of gravi- tation. The law of reactions was in op- eration during the greater part of June, when the oversupply of stock, following the winter shortage, was one of the most unwieldy ever known in this market, but even at that it is to be doubted if the movement, while unquestionably op- posite, in any way equaled the big boom that preceded it. In most cstsea florists, whether wholesale or retail, had a much better June than last year, in spite of the manifest diflBlculties. It is the quite general report among retailers that wed- ding work was much heavier than a year, ago and that general retail business was USE THE BEST FLORISTS' 8REEI THREAD Full length, full 2 oz. spools; will go farther than any other thread.

Wienhoeber Co., which, with its many years in the heart of the wealthy north side residence sec- tion, deserves to be called the society florist, wedding work in June was heav- ier than for many years. June 25 there were two large church , weddings, St. Paul's being decorated for the Alpers- Haake wedding and the Fourth Presby- terian for the PuUman-McIlvaine cere- mony. In each case the bride 's residence also was decorated and for the former wedding the bouquets were furnished. William Wienhoeber and wife are in Colorado for a month 's vacation. One of the serviceable native plants, the flowers of which are being used by the retailers who like to add variety to their work, is Calopogon pulchellus. It belongs to the orchid family, the flowers being magenta-crimson to white. The flowers seen in the stores here are from plants gathered and grown near the lake in Indiana. Charles Erne says the lim- i,ted supply has sold on sight. The A. L.

Gradua- tion week called for a good supply of flowers, and while few things were on the short list, prices were stimulated considerably. Koses were in especial demand, and with some outdoor stock of the Wichuraiana varieties coming in, there was plenty of stock to go around. Peonies from cold storage moved well at prices running up to $6 per hundred, and advantage was taken of every com- FOR COMMERCIAL GROWERS OF CUT FLOWERS Adv. No. 4. Watch for No. 5. A GOOD START Some three years ago, we began in this market what was the beginning of a new SALES REPORT to the Consignor. Our experiments met with various obsta- cles, which were finally all overcome, thanks largely to growers who had foreseen its value and gave us sincere co-operation. This SALES REPORT offers a NEW SERVICE from the Cut Flower Commis- sion House to the Consignor. Its value lies in support of the growers who have given it a trial. Kennicott Bros. Co.

This week opened with a well sup- plied market and a business which is quite normal for the time of year. American Beauty roses are not over- plentiful, and clean up well, special grades bringing about $35 per hundred when the quality is good. There are generous arrivals of hybrid teas, but their movement, too, is good. Carnations are becoming scarce, but the quality of arrivals, generally, is nothing to boast about. The cool tem- peratures experienced for several days have been of advantage to carnation growers, who have been able to extend their cutting season a few days. Jolt 3, 1919.

The best bring only $20 per hundred, but much stock goes for considerably less. Lilies of the valley are short in supply, and a maximum price of 25 cents per spray is not hard to obtain for fine stock. Orchids are not overplentiful, but such as arrive move slowly, except for wed- ding work, which is now passing. There is a large quantity of herba- ceous flowers available, all of which move at some figure or, other. Gyp- sophjla, perhaps, sells best; much of it is used at this season. Helianthus, cen- taureas, rambler roses and Dorothy Per- kins roses are among the latest addi- tions to a lengthy list of miscellaneous flowers. Various Notes. M. T.

The Market. The wholesale market was in excel- lent condition, considering the extreme- ly hot weather all during the week. The many weddings kept retailers on the jump. This, with a great amount of funeral work, caused a heavy de- mand at all the markets. Extra fancy stock was limited, but some good qual- ity of seasonable stock was seen.

White roses were at a premium and the price jumped a few cents from quotations. Other roses, such as Ophelia, Russell and Columbia, were in fair supply with excellent de- mand. Carnations are coming in soft and small in flower. The demand is equal to the supply. Shipped-in stock arrives in sleepy condition and home-grown stock has the call.

There is an entire change of ideas in the way of doing business today when compared with the past. A group of re- tailers has sprung up in each of our large cities who place buying above everything else, although they give close attention to all the important divisions of their business. Their first rule is not to allow anyone to know what they real- ly want; their second, that they will buy anything salable provided the price is right; their third is, to pay promptly. These florists are created by overproduction and are invaluable in moving a surplus, but they rarely pay prices that enable the grower to prosper, although the cleverest of them do not hesitate to do so when necessary. The modern grower will not invest his money in glass, preferring to lease places that have been erected by others, and operate. These growers secure the best available assistants, and hold them responsible for that portion of the work that is under their care. The modern grower need not know all about grow- Bnniiii EDWARD REID Offers Choiee QnELIA ami VICTORY, the best white Rose in sammen WHITE CARNATIONS, LARKSPUI^ CANDYTUFF, YaiOW DAISIES, 6REENS Bamamber: Wbae TbaT*ra Rald*a, Tbay'ra Rttfkt 1619-21 Ranstead St., PHILADELPHIA, PA. imHMaaBuaw iimiiiir ymmmammmammmammmammmsamm Mention The Beriew when yon write.

The mod- ern grower should know almost by in- stinct what pays and for that reason he must be as well posted on the market as the modern retailer. Neither the modern retailer nor the modern grower does things from prefer- ence; that belongs to the old school. Neither class is likely to become large, because the love and enthusiasm re- quired to make successful florists is rarely combined with the other qualities that are necessary in the make-up of the modern school.

Beal, Sec'y. PERCENTAGE PLUS. Have we ever had a year of flower- selling that was better than the period of 1918 to the present timet Has it all been accidental or incidental? Has it been through any particular cause or causes, or has it been through general business conditions? Now, if all business has struck a high- er plane and an increased volume, may we not attribute a part of our increased success to that condition! And may we not also connect a part of our greater volume to the publicity campaign, which has caused many florists to reawaken after our slow period just prior to 19181 Don't you want to feel that our pub- licity campaign has assisted somewhat in the new impetus which our business has received, and don't you want to recognize also the efforts to secure our $100,000, of which we have only $40,- 000 to date! Every man in the florists' business today must admit that pub- licity has done something toward this increased production of business. Now, since we must admit this, when will the proper time be to forward a contribution to the campaign fund and show your appreciation of the endeav- ors being made on your behalf as well as for all others?

E. H. R. Green, multimillionaire, son of the late Mrs. Hetty Green. It consists of 45 acres just outside the limits of Dallas, Texas, the foremost city of the Southwest, having a population of over 160,0(K) and in the heart of the rich oil fields. The greenhouses are of con- crete construction, are built throughout of the best material and are in first-class condition. They comprise 20t,161 square feet of glass and are equipped throughout with the most improved system of piping. The boiler room has three large Babcock & Wilcox boilers. Oil is used as fuel and is delivered at the company's switch and pumped through its pipe line into a large storage tank near the boiler room. The company has an unlimited supply of surface and artesian water from its own wells. A house for foreman, ten-room house for single men, also a house to be used for a kK>aiding place. The place is thoroughly fitted out with teams, tools, etc. The greenhouses are well stocked with every necessary variety of flowers and plants, the market for which is practically without limit, there being a demand for more stock than can be grown. San Antonio, Galveston, Houston, Waco and Ft. Worth, all large cities, are easily accessible in from one to twelve hours. The greenhouses were originally built by Col. E. H. R. Green, the entire plant costing him about 1250,000. It was operated by him until he left Dallas some years ago to take up his residence in New York, at which time he sold his holdings to Mr. Selh Miller, who continued to operate the property until his death a few months ago, and it is now being disposed of to settle his estate.

The automobile, entered by a promi- nent bank of Portland, which captured the grand prize in the Portland rose fes- tival was decorated by Max M. Smith, 1411^ Sixth street. The work was done by Thomas Luke. The flowers used were the products of Portland growers and comprised the fol- lowing: 1,200 Delphinium Belladonna and hybrids; 600 yellow Spanish iris; 600 Mme. Caroline Testout roses, and 500 pink peonies of assorted varieties. Inasmuch as there were 300 entries, the feat of capturing the sweepstakes prize is one of which the decorator is justly proud. PASADENA, GAL. .When Captain Eddie Eickenbacher was given the tremendous reception upon his arrival in Los Angeles June 21, the automobile in which he rode in the parade was decorated to resemble the aeroplane in which he flew in France. The work was that of Henry A. Sie- brecht, Jr., of Pasadena, who is ex- tremely proud of the success of his de- sign. Scotch broom formed the body of the plane. The air force insignia, the rudder, the famous "hat in the ring" emblem were all done in red, white and blue flowers. The result, says Mr. Siebrecht, was not a float, but a true reproduction of an aeroplane. PORTLAND, ORE. A new rose, named Mrs. Arthur M. Mears, in honor of a Portland society matron, at an impressive ceremony held by the Eoyal Eosarians during the rose show, is the origination of Albert Clarke, of Clarke Bros. The plant at the ceremonies was a sturdy 2-year-old, and bore half a dozen blooms. Accord- ing to description, it is a hybrid tea, of strong, erect growth, and is said to be excellent for outdoor growing. The blooms, light pink in color, are large and full. The stems are long, and the foliage is a dark greenish bronze color with a leathery texture. , LOS ANGELES. The Market. Business was fairly good last week and stock fairly good for the season. Asters are coming in now in fine order and help out shipments. Cosmos and dahlias also are useful now that gladioli are getting past their best. Roses are still of inferior quality. Carnations are a mixed lot, some of the new crop being good. The greenhouse blooms are of me- dium quality only. Sweet peas are com- ing of fair quality and in quantity about equal to the demand. Orchids are on the scarce side and hard to get. Greens are about equal to the demand. Various Notes. T. Viethammer, of Winslow, Ariz., was a visitor last week. F. E. Hills is under the care of a physician. Henry Kuntz has returned to the city from Arizona, where he had been on a vacation. H. R. Richards. WATSONVILLE, CAL. H. A. Hyde has leased from Mrs. Emma L. Sterling, of Salinas, Cal., 175 acres of fine strawberry and bush berry land near Natividad, which will be de- voted to intensive berry production. As- socia'ed with M-. Hyde in the enterprise are Yamamoto Bros, and U. Shikuma, manager of the K. U. S. Co., two of the best known strawberry growers in the Paaro valley. The enterprise is capital- ized f-r $100,000, with $60,000 paid up stock. SAN FRANCISCO. The Market. The condition of the cut flower mar- ket showed little if any improvement over the preceding week. Stock was plentiful enough, but the quality, con- sidering the season of the year, was poor and prices were above normal. Orchids advanced slightly and retailers received $1.50 apiece for ordinarily good specimens. They came into the market a little better than heretofore and were not so hard to obtain. With the excep- tion of a few Benoras, carnations showed a tendency toward poor blooms, although there was a quantity in the market. Snapdragons and delphiniums showed improvement over the week before, both in quantity and quality, and brought good prices in the retail market. Gladioli were plentiful and in excellent shape, but with the exception of Mrs. Francis King, no other varieties besides Halley, Panama and America have yet been cut. A few early chrysanthemums made their appearance during the first part of last week. They were of rather indifferent quality, but a good crop is expected within two weeks.

The rose situation was but slightly improved. Stock was a little more plen- tiful, but the blooms were in bad condi- tion and not at all satisfactory for ship- ping. American Beauties are practically gone now, but a fair quality of Ulrich Brunner arrived to take their place. These, on account of the lengthy hot spell, fell into full bloom quickly, but the stems and leaves were in good con- dition and roses were among the few flowers that could be shipped. Various Notes. The nurseries of the E. W. McLellan Co. across the bay, as well as most of the greenhouses in the Burlingame nurs- ery, are being dried up now. Mr. Mc- Lellan is leaving two or three houses on the peninsula open to carry enough stock for the dull period. List and Prices Ready SEASON— 1920 If interested mail business card or letterliead.

They are welcome additions to the market, as boxwood has been extremely scarce for some time. Boston ferns of splendid quality are arriving from the nurseries of H. Plath. They bring good prices. Coleus plants of good appearance were brought in last week by F, D, Pelicano. These, with hydrangeas, rambler and Dorothy Perkins roses and rhododen- drons, constituted the plant stock for the week. The hydrangeas were in fine bloom and retailers look for some of the cut flowers this week. They promise to retain the popularity they enjoyed the last two seasons. Victor Ferrari, of Ferrari Bros., has purchased the entire orchid stock of Dr. Parker, of Santa Cruz. This leaves the bay orchid situation practically in the control of Mr. Ferrari and J. A. Car- bone, of Berkeley. 44 The Florists^ Review Jdlt 3, 1919.

A last farewell to John Barleycorn was staged by the entire staff of this establishment June 28. Members of the Powell street store and the Palace hotel stand met at a dinner in the Italian quarter, where friend John was laid to rest with befit- ting ceremonies. Manager Fred Ber- trand said the affair had to be held June 28 so the staff could be on hand to dis- tribute flowers to the rest of the mourn- ers July 1. Probably one of the largest floral horseshoes ever made in the city was the one constructed in the establishment of F. C.

Mr. Podesta, of Podesta & Baldocchi, stated that business continued along satisfactory lines in spite of telephone strikes and other disturbances. J. Eolleri, a retailer of Los Angeles, visited the local trade last week. An exceptionally beautiful display of water lilies was arranged in Joseph 's store last week. Purple, white and old rose blossoms were artistically placed in a large, flat marble basin. The Japanese note was strongly brought out by the use of bronze herons grouped around the basin. In the same window, under a brilliant Japanese parasol, was grouped a lavish mass of hydrangeas in variegated colors. They produced a striking effect. The first gloxinia plants of the season were seen here. The Art Floral Co. was particularly busy with wedding decorations last •week.

The entire home where the wedding was held was deco- rated with daisies and smilax, the white, gold and green being most effective for the summer season. The bride 's bouquet was composed of phalaenopsis and gar- denias, and the bridesmaids carried bouquets of Shasta daisies, from which floated airy streamers of baby ribbon and tulle. A.

Bridgeport has been suffering from a dry spell. However, recent rains have improved conditions. Outdoor flowers are coming in nicely and in abundant supply with most of the florists. Carna- tions are holding up well, but are much smaller. Some splendid gladioli and delphiniums are to be had. Peonies are almost gone. This week is to be celebrated in Bridgeport as welcome-home week to the soldiers and sailors. A number of banquets have been arranged in their honor, which will call for large quanti- ties of flowers for boutonnieres, table decorations, etc. Every day during the last few weeks florists have had calls for wedding bou- quets and some small wedding decora- tions. Last week the different schools, public and private, held commencement exercises, calling for bouquets and baskets of flowers for the graduates. Various Notes. James Horan & Son designed a hand- some pall recently. It was made of pink and white roses. They have had numerous calls for wedding and gradu- ation bouquets and baskets. John Eeck & Son decorated the plat- form of the high school auditorium for the graduation exercises. The Crane Co. will give a dinner in the Stratfield hotel to a number of the employees who have returned from the service. Mr. Beck will furnish the centerpieces and bouquets for the tables. Julius Eeck reports that his outdoor flowers are coming on well, but that he is now short of flowers, as the outdoor plants are only commencing to bloom. George Eeck, a member of this firm, was married recently to Miss Marie Cos- grove. A cottage has been built on the place. It is now furnished and ready for occupancy when Mr. and Mrs. Eeck return from their wedding tour. John Eeck, another son and member of the firm, is still in France. Victor Carwedean has had a number of large funeral pieces. He will furnish the decorations for a welcome-home din- ner which the Sons of St. George will give at the Stratfield hotel to the boys of their order who have been discharged from the service. James E. Beach reports that stock is doing well in his greenhouses. Sweet peas are abundant and the cut is of good quality. He is filling the houses with chrysanthemums and is picking some good pink and white snapdragons. The Park Garden & Flower Shop re- ports counter trade good. In a large wedding decoration made recently, sweet peas, rambler roses, peonies, hy- drangeas, ferns and palms were used profusely. I. L. B. Springfield, Mass. — Louis E.

The week ending June 28 finished the oversupply of flowers, which had crowded the market for two weeks with a soft lot of bad material, half of which was not worth picking. Quality is no better at present, but scarcity in some items has put prices up to where there is not so much charity in the handling. The supply of good roses is exhausted each morning, as is also that of sweet peas, which have become short-stemmed, and which still bring from 75 cents to $1.50 per hundred. Numerous weddings last . week prac- tically kept all the white ^oWers thsct are adaptable to wedding work out of the market. Few orders have been filled completely for white roses, sweet peas and swainsonas. Valley is not to be had. Orchids sell well and bring good prices. Garden flowers are numerous, but do not adequately take the place of indoor stock. Delphinium has been in abun- dance, selling at 25 cents to 75 cents per bunch. Gypsophila grandiflora is plentiful and sells well. Canterbury bells have had good sale and some pretty colors have been in. The month of June from a sales ' point of view has been better than a year ago. With a heavy glut on most of the time, the showing made is remarkable. Cir- cumstances might have been more favor- able, but optimism is unimpaired in this locality. Various Notes.

Besults Are Evident. A caller, from western Pennsylvania, at our promotion bureau a few days ago, while in conversation regarding our pub- licity campaign, spoke of a florist in a neighboring town who put into prac- tice a suggestion offered in this column recently to the effect that by question- ing new customers as to what prompted them to patronize a particular estab- lishment, an idea could be formed as to the influence exerted by our campaign. The florist was greatly pleased with the result. Almost all gave credit to our slogan, "Say It with Flowers," and to the magazine advertising. This is in line with the experience of many others, and there is not the slightest doubt in the minds of our enthusiastic contribu- tors to the campaign fund that our pub- licity propaganda is having a similar effect in every community throughout the land. Could the florists better serve them- selves and their business than by con- tributing to the fund that is the bone and sinew of this movement f There i» no longer the need for proof that our campaign is producing what all of us have been hoping for so long — increased consumption of flowers. The public everywhere has responded to the mes- sage, "Say It with Flowers." Public men are using the slogan when oppor- tunity occurs, and it is given publicity constantly in ways undreamed-of by our committees. For all of which, the trade is, or should be, grateful.

Member BEGEROWS 946 Broad St. FRESH FLOWERS AND BEST SERVICE in the subscription list published in this paper. If you did not find it, ask yourself why. Was it through care- lessness or negligence on your part? Was it because you do not believe in the work? Or, maybe, because you know so many are subscribing and think, there- fore, your contribution would not be missed? In other words, you have been willing to "let George do it." Roughly speaking, the "George" of our sub- scription list is a composite of ovor 1,600 florists who believe in our work, and with their money make possible the beneficial results we are getting. But to secure the maximum of possibilities our committes need the full amount of $100,000, which, at the beginning of the year, they set out to raise — a small sum indeed to pay for a return to be valued at millions of dollars. Why not send in your contribution at once, thus be- coming a "real fellow," and removing from your conscience the weight which you must find depressing? It is possible that some of our florists are awaiting a personal call from one or another of our representatives. While we are sure such a visit in the majority of cases would be successful, this is a vast country, and none should hide under such an expectation. Our small corps of representatives is doing laudable work, but it is, necessarily, limited. A special representative of our publicity finance committee, M. A. Vin- son, entefed recently the thriving town of Flint, Mich., and made a 100 per cent clean-up for the fund, the town not pre- viously having recorded a subscription.

They all appeared to be wait- ing for some one to come along to ex- plain details of the campaign, and then would voluntarily say, ' * Of course, we want to be in the list. It is a big move- ment, and we all want to be part of it." There are scores of other towns equally anxious to take part — but why wait for a personal representative, who may never arrive? The secretary will be de- lighted to furnish any needed informa- tion, and to announce contributions. Additional Subscriptions.

Alberts the Florist says business is exceeding all expectations, considering his recent opening, just a few months ago. Last Saturday his window decora- tion consisted entirely of red rambler roses, arranged in baskets of various sizes. Red velvet of the same color was draped from a high pedestal and the effect was unusually attractive. A most enjoyable time was spent at the home of Miss Lillian Wheeler June 25, when the employees of the Main street store of H. E. Wilson, together with a few friends, held an outdoor pic- nic. About twenty attended. A large pyramid of pale blue del- phinium with a smaller mound of core- opsis was seen in the window of J. B. Keller Sons last week. The window was beautifully staged and attracted considerable attention. A reception was given to Corp. Lester E. Brown at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Winifred H. Wilson lately.

The Market. With most houses connected with the trade, last week closed the fiscal year, and therefore a slight retrospect may not be out of place. The year just ended was one of the most prosperous in the New Orleans trade, both as re- gards cut flower business and general nursery operations. This has been at- tained in the face of a scarcity of skilled labor at critical periods, more especially during the propagating sea- son, and adverse climatic conditions, at times inhibiting field work. As regards cut flower trade, the sea- son has been of mixed character. The partial suspension of the usual social season, centering in the festivities of Mardi Gras, was more than offset by the pressure due to the marked influx of winter visitors and the many conven- tions that have been held here in the last few months. The outlook seems to be particularly optimistic at this writ- ing. In any judgment of this point, due consideration must bo given to the fact that in many instances the home crop has been exhausted before the northern states have entered into the race. This applies fully to field-grown stock and in some degree to greenhouse products. At present the market may be said to have sailed into the "doldrums." Roses are not of desirable grade outside of Russell. The trade seems to be well supplied with home-grown Radiance, Red Radiance, White Maman Cochet, Killarney and Kaiscrin. Carnations are about exhausted. Tuberoses are begin- ning to fill in gaps, but this crop is al- most purely a home one and promises to be somewhat smaller than last year. CENTRALIA, ILL. J. W.

"aORIST ** HmsUi Field work is at present exceedingly active. This was to have been expected. Labor was short a year ago, and the best was only mediocre; hence, stocks were at a minimum when an exceptional im- petus was given by demand from the householder. The fall and spring de- mand practically cleaned up the stocks of hardened roses, and we have had to go afield for stocks when other produc- ing points were short of the goods. There has been a distinct turn towards dahlias during the last year, but as yet the south does not seem acquainted with the successful varieties. Moss layering of old-timers, such as sweet olive and gardenias, has been active, the demand iiaving about cleaned up the home sup- ply of 1 and 2-year-old plants. Various Notes.

Auothcr of its activities has been the utilization of a bequest of about $15,000 in terrac- ing the site of the old Horticultural hall, the last relic of the Cotton Centennial exposition of 1884-1885, vrhich was de- stroyed during the great storm of Sep- tember 29, 1915. On this plot the com- mission expects to try out novelties, which, when found successful, will be recommended for planting in the home gardens of the city. The annual outing of the New Orleans Horticultural Society was held June 19. About thirty-six members boarded the Enterprise for a day on Lake Pontchar- train, touching at Mandeville, Lewis- burg and Madisonville. As far as ar- rangements went, they were perfect, but "man proposes and God disposes." The journey both going and coming was tempestuous, and it is of public knowl- edge that the denizens of the lake bene- fited largely by the alimentary cargo laid aboard by the committee.

There's Money In It S^ a iMtf^loii^erS, IVE MILLION salesmen working in your interests at an average cost of $2.00 a day would be $10,000,000 a day, or by the year-no, the figures are too big. Even dividing the cost of these salesmen among all the members of the Society of American Florists, the sum would be a staggering one for you to pay. And yet there are 5,000,000 salesmen working for you right now. But the cost per salesman is only a matter of a few cents a year. What are these salesmen? They are the magazines in which are appearing the advertisements with the slogan: "Say It with Flow- ers." Into every home in your district come these salesmen, not knocking at the door and soliciting business, but as invited guests for whose valuable information every member of the household is grateful. ' "Say It with Flowers" is proving one of America's greatest sales- men. For you, and for every florist, grower, retailer or wholesaler, this salesman is making money. If he could be hired away from you, you would lose the greatest single asset which the florists of this country possess. "Say It with Flowers" is worth a fortune today, but without appre- ciation from those for whom it is working, it will depreciate. With you and all the florists' interests back of it, it will grow in power to tremendous proportions. Are you subscribing to the publicity fund? The list of subscribers is printed in these columns from week to week. These men realize the importance of keeping the advertising going because "there is money in it." With every subscription, more salesmen go into the magazines that circulate in your territory. '-^B^wS"^-^^ • -^ '■ T^ ' "" '^:wi?'-«i."<"r'T-!'» .-^r-.'T July 3, 1919.

BOSTON. The Market. The week ending June 28 proved a satisfactory one for cut flower sales. Graduation exercises, weddings, recep- tions and other social gatherings created a good call, and clearances were good, especially on roses and carnations. With the closing of schools and colleges and the passing of June weddings, demands are now much fewer and there is little but funeral work to keep retailers busy. All hands anticipate a quiet market for a couple of months and an active one in September. Boses are fewer in num- ))er, but of fairly good quality for early fuly. There is a limited call for Ameri- jan Beauties, but for such varieties as Kaiserin, Miller, Ophelia and Francis Scott Key there is good demand. The Killarneys are now of poor quality. Small lots of hybrid perpetuals have ap- peared, but these cut a small figure in the wholesale market. It is surprising that more are not grown, as they are so much superior to the undersized blooms grown under glass at this season. Carnations are small, and the color of pink varieties is poor. Many growers have stopped shipping them entirely. Sweet peas are now all grown outdoors, but the quality so far is not good, the stems being short. The first of the asters appeared last week, but they will sell better a month hence. Valley is scarce and dear, but there is little call for it. Lilies are also in scant supply, but gla- dioli are abundant and fine in quality. The first outdoor ones arrived June 28. (Jornnowers, salpiglossis and other an- nuals, and a good assortment of such perennials as delphiniums, coreopsis and gaillardias, are coming in. There are few cattleyas outside of gigas and Gas- kelliana. The demand for green sup- plies was good last week, but is now small. There are practically no flower- ing plants on the market but a few hydrangeas, and foliage plants and ferns take their place. Various Notes. William Penn left Boston June 26 for Grand Lake Stream, Me., where he will indulge in his favorite pastime, salmon fishing, during the month of July. Busi- ness at Penn 's last week was good. They had numerous graduation orders, in ad- dition to receptions and weddings and one or two large funeral orders. William Sim, of Cliftondale, has been ordered to plow up a large field of early sweet corn, which he specializes in each season. The plants are started under glass and his crop always realizes fancy prices in the Boston market. The dis- covery of the dreaded corn borer caused the inspectors to condemn Mr. Sim's entire crop and he estimates his loss at $5,000. Other large growers are also hard hit, and there is a growing demand that the state reimburse them, at least in part, for their loss. The Boston Florists' Association has decided to hold its first annual outing at Wardhurst, Lynnfield, in lieu of Nan- tasket. There will be a dinner, which will be free to all members, and an in- teresting program of sports to follow it. The date i» July 12 and practically everyone will make the journey in auto- mobiles. June proved to be an exceptionally warm and dry month. Our longest drought of the year was broken June 27 by refreshing rains, which were much needed. John K. M. L. Farquhar has resigned his position as park commissioner of Bos- ton, and a successor has been appointed. The personnel of the board is hardly what a city like Boston should have. In the days of J. A. Pettigrew, the Boston parks were our pride, but now that poli- tics rule even the park board, there is little wonder that conditions steadily grow worse. Samuel* Wax, of Wax Bros., left June 28 for a six weeks' vacation with Mrs. Wax at Moosehead lake. Me. Mr. Wax is a noted angler and always remembers his friends with fine boxes of the finny tribe while away. Wax Bros, did the largest June business in their history. Henry M. Robinson & Co. have had a busy June, and a glance at their ice chests shows that they still do a big business in cut flowers. Henry M. Eob- inson, with his wife and family, are at Green Harbor, Mass., but his son, John, a wide-awake second edition of the father, is right on the job. ^WPWWSWflv^''^ V ' i'^V ' "^ Jolt 3, 1919.

The annual sweet pea exhibition of the Massachusetts Horticultural Society will be held July 5 and 6. There are classes for larkspurs, hollyhocks and other sea- sonable flowers, also fruits and vegeta- bles. These summer shows are all at- tracting large attendances this season. The annual June show of the North Shore Horticultural Society was post- poned from June 25 to July 2. It was held in Horticultural hall, Manchester, and the north shore gardeners had a fine exhibition. One of the finest old estates near Bos- ton is that of Arthur T. Lyman, in Waltham. There are some grand speci- men trees here, 150 years old, including the first copper beeches planted in Amer- ica. The Davey Tree Expert Co. has just completed surgery work on some of these. There are clumps of rhododen- drons here, planted thirty-five years ago, which are eighteen feet in height and bloom superbly. Of interest are lean-to graperies and other greenhouses.

Vs.— "The florists' business is a regular, up-to-the-minute business," says a local paper when speaking of the splendid trade that the Philadelphia Flower Shop is enjoying. The manager of that store reports that business is booming the year around in this city. 84 The Florists^ Review July 3. 1919. Wisconsin reports state that the period of hot weather followed by a prolonged cold spell has acted extremely unfavor- ably on the pea crop. Consequently, one writer affirms, "peas are going to be peas," regardless of grade or size. In this week *s obituary column appears iiotice of the death of Arthur F. Barney, of Worcester, Mass. He had been in the seed business in Boston for fifty years, with the Schlegel & Fottler Co. and the T. J. Grey Co., being president of the lattei" since its organization. THE CHICAQO CONVENTION. Officers Elected. At the closing session of the Chicago convention, the start of which was re- ported in The Review for June 26, the following officers were elected and in- stalled : President — Edward C. Dungan, of Wm, Henry Maule, Inc., Philadelphia. First vice-president — William G. Scarlett, of W. G. Scarlett & Co., Bal- timore. ,' Second vice-presidcDit— r€)avid Burpee, of W. Atlee Burpe^e C5., Philadelphia. Secretary-treasurer — C. E. Kendel, of A. C. Kendel, Cleveland. Assistant secretary — F. W. Bolgiano, of F. W. Bolgiano & Co., Baltimore. Executive committee — Kirby B. White, of D. M. Ferry & Co., Detroit; C. E. Massie, of Northrup, King & Co., Minneapolis; John L. Hunt, of Jerome B. Eice Seed Co., Cambridge, N. Y.; F. W. Bolgiano, Baltimore; L. H. Vaughan, of Vaughan's Seed Store, Chicago. Membership committee — H. G, Hast- ings, of H. G. Hastings Co., Atlanta; Alex. Forbes, of J. F. Noll & Co., New- ark, N. J.; B. P. Cornell, of Schisler- Corneli Seed Co., St. Louis; George S. Green, of the Illinois Seed Co., Chicago; L. B. McCausland, of Ross Bros. Seed Co., Wichita, Kan. Counsel Is Betalned. Curtis Nye Smith, of Boston, was re- tained as counsel for the association for another year, at a salary of $3,750. Mr. Smith also serves as counsel for the American Association of Nursery- men and manages the collection bureau maintained by that organization. The committee to which the presi- dent's address had been referred, through W. S. Woodruff, recommended that, inasmuch as the publication of the association's Bulletin had been discon- tinued, counsel be authorized to com- municate with the members through certain trade papers. The report brought a call for an executive session, during which the methods of one trade publi- cation were vigorously attacked, the rather lengthy discussion resulting in two motions, each of which was carried,' first to revive the Bulletin as the official organ and, second, to put the associa- tion on record as opposed to the pub- lication of surplus lists in trade papers or their general distribution by other means. Edward C. Dungan. (President American Seed Trade Association.) Charles Dickinson brought up the mat- ter of the Illinois seed law, then in the hands "of Governor Lowden, and offered a resolution for a telegram to the execu- tive asking him to veto the bill in favor of what is known as the uniform seed law. It was so ordered. Governor Lowden signed the Illinois pure seed bill June 30, in spite of the action of the American Seed Trade As- sociation and the continued opposition of the Illinois seedsmen, who based their objections principally on three grounds: First, that it does not include the farm- er in its provisions; second, that it is unworkable in that it establishes stand- ards of purity thus far unobtainable by means of seed-cleaning machinery, and, third, that much seed which comforms to other seed laws, notably Canada's, will be made inadmissible to Illinois. A committee of five was ordered ap- pointed by the incoming president to work with the National Seed Analysts for the purpose of securing relief from the various, unequal and unworkable seed laws with which the trade is har- assed. Claims Against Express Companies. So numerous and so annoying are the claims pending against the express com- panies that the matter was taken up by the association and a committee ap- pointed, with L. B. McCausland as chair- man, to see what could be done. At a subsequent session Mr. McCausland in- troduced Mr. Smith, head of the claim department of the American Railway Express at Chicago, to describe what the government-operated company is doing. He said he has 503 employees in his office and that there are equally large organizations in claim depart- ments elsewhere. At Chicago, he said, thirty-five per cent of all claims are paid the day they are received and most of the others are delayed only be- cause the necessary evidence does not accompany the claim. A Mr. Henry told what is being done to clear up the claims against the old express com- panies. Both officials spoke fair words, but it was apparent that they offered no great amount of relief to the seeds- men who are having difficulty in getting action on claims. Better Postal Service Wanted. The association went on record as protesting at the deterioration of the postal service. TJie matter was pre- sented by E. C. Dungan, the new presi- dent, and many members concurred vin what he said as to the increasing in- efficiency of tlie postoffice. It was voted 1 JuLT 3, 1919. _ The Florists' Review 85 to memorialize CJMiress on the subject, report^^^^re an interesting Crop Here feature of the ra^m^g of June 26 is a brief summa^of conditions as of nuizumj inil^o June 15 to 20 in the various districts: In the east the season is two weeks late and it is too early to tell what the harvest will be; the acreage is not quite so large and good weather is needed. In California conditions are normal and crops looking good, although there are spots where mildew has hit oiiion and the louse devastated peas. One large grower asserted the acreage is as great as last year and others in the room did not dispute it, although they previously had stated it was much re- duced. In the Pacific northwest the prospect is the poorest in years, because of the late froiftfl. This is particularly true of Washington and Idaho; conditions are better in Montana. It is said that peas will run all the way from ten per cent to fifty per cent of a crop. This is par- ticularly serious because the acreage in Wisconsin and Michigan has been de- creasing so rapidly in recent years that the -present liji^ prospQC^ there will not affect the general situation. Beans have only just been planted. On Long Island the brassicas are good. There have been a few crop fail- ures, but on unimportant items only; the staples indicate full deliveries. In Ohio the season is two to three weeks late and the sweet corn will need good growing weather to mature before frost. In Nebraska it is the season of uncer- tainty for the vine seed crops, but con- ditions are not worse than in other sea- sons that have ended with a good har- vest. ' In Colorado the melon crop was cut seventy-five per Qgntby the June frost, but plantings for seed crops are later and were not hit so hard. Much cucum- ber was replanted. It is the opinion of J. C. Eobinson that the carried-over stocks of vine seeds in the hands of the trade are smaller ;j;han for many years. Comment. It seems to be considered a joke each year to elect the retiring president to the dutyless office of assistant secretary ' * at the same salary as his predecessor, ' ' which was nothing. Kirby B. White never lets pass an op- portunity to stand up for principle; he believes the Seed Trade Association should be unbending on all matters that pertain to moral as well as legal right, that it should encourage adhesion to the ethical in business methods, but that it should not in any way interfere with personal privilege. The older men are seeking relief from responsibility, but it comes as a shock to hear that J. C. Robinson declined re- election to the membership committee. After all these years, how can things go on without himf At a seed trade convention one is sup- posed to sit arid listen to the plainest kind of talk without turning a hair, to take everything in friendly spirit, but it was evident that some of the seed growers did not relish all the things that were handed them at Chicago. In his roll as perennial presenter, Watson S. Woodruff made the speech without which the annual testimonial to the retiring president would have been incomplete. Last year he presented President Bolgiano a silver tea set on behalf of the members present; this QUALITY SEED FOR THE Market Gardeners of America ^r;K ^ SPINACH SEED, All Varieties 100 lbs. or more ... .30c per lb.

Peacock Co. took the members in automobiles for a trip to the company's farms and trial grounds. About thirty touring cars carrying about 175 visiting seedsmen, represent- ing firms in all parts of the United States and Canada, took part in this ex- cursion. Motorcycle pclicemen led the procession. A refreshment stand had been erected in the large Varehouse and tastefully decorated. Young ladies from the ofl&ce force dispensed refreshments. Several interesting exhibits had been arranged, such as the packet sealing machine of the Amer{|Ean Machinery Co., also the seed scale in operation. The Beeman Tractor Co. operated two ma- chines showing the usefulness of this machine for the truck gardener. The Stuebrig Truck Co. demonstrated its hydraulic hand truck, with which a load of seed weighing two tons was easily handled by one man. Several other in- teresting features, such as a portable mill with a capacity for cleaning 2,500 bushels of onion sets, were shown. The Peacock concern has 110 acres under cultivation on this farm and all visitors expressed themselves as highly pleased with what they saw. From the farm the party proceeded to the House That Jack Built, where an ex- cellent dinner was served, with music. Among the many well known seedsmen present were Frank Bolgiano, former £ resident of the association, and E. C. lungan, newly elected president. So that everybody would know who was who, a card was placed at each plate and was signed by the guests. These cards were assembled and Mr. Peacock called the names of those present, to which each guest responded and re- ceived hearty applause. Mr. Dungan expressed the appreciation of those present, and Mr. Cobb, of D. M. Ferry & Co., made some appropriate remarks. The party returned by way of Hubbard Woods and along Lake Michigan 's beau- tiful north shore. ASPECTS OF SEED CONTROL. [A paper read by W. A. Wheeler, in charge of the Seed Reporting Service, Bureau of Mar- kets, U. S. Department of Agriculture, before the annual convention of the Wholesale Grass Seed Dealers' Association at Chicago, June 23, 1919.] In considering the subject of seed control in any of its phases, it is most desirable to hold in mind the legitimate functions of the various branches of the seed business, and to recognize that every assistance possible should be ren- dered seedsmen in the performing of these functions, in order that they may render the greatest possible service to We are Headquarters for the BEST OF EVERYTHING VEGETABLE SEEDS With our Stock Seed Farms at Grass Lake, Mich., and our growing stations in every part of the United States where seeds are grown successfully, all in charge of capable and experienced men, we are equipped for and are producing Peasy Beans, Corn and Vegetable Seeds of all kinds in quantity and of highest quality.

Mention Tb« lUvtow nhm yon writ*. the agencies which they serve. Seed legislation has ordinarily been looked upon as a protection to the consumer against unscrupulous methods of unre- liable or dishonest seedsmen. Much of the legislation thatt hks been proposed has been approached from this angle, and has been drastic in its provisions. It has been destructive in many ways, instead of constructive. Because of this characteristic of early seed legislation, the seed trade in the past has generally assumed an antagonistic attitude to- ward seed legislation. Through the ef- forts and influence of a large number of the better class of seedsmen in re- cent years, this attitude is gradually changing from one of strict opposition to all legislation, to one of tolerance of the more reasonable legislation and in some cases even to the extent of a C.

Objects of Se«d Legislation. As the seed trade is an institution which is necessary in the conduct of our agricultural operations, instead of a parasite on our rural institutions, it is highly desirable that any legislation or control that is ever proposed should recognize all of the facts which enter into the conduct of the seed business, as well as the necessary protection of the purchaser of see3. " Seed legislation has certain objects in view, some of which are the following: (a) To protect the purchaser against misrepresentation regarding the seeds purchased, (b) To prevent the distri- bution and spread of noxious weeds through the sale of agricultural seeds American Seed Trade Association on an Outing on a Peacock Onion Set Farm. 88 The Florists' Review July 3. 1919. containing noxious weed seeds, (c) To st^nulate the sale and use of strictly high-grade seeds, (d) To provide sys- tems of merchandising that wilL assure protection to the purchaser without in- curring unreasonable or injurious hard- ships on tlie dealer, (e) To assure the reliable seedsman, who is doing a strict- ly legitimate seed business, the neces- sary protection from the acts of the un- scrupulous dealer, (f ) To pi-ovide ,f or the adoption of standards of nomen- clature and terminology, in order to ob- tain simplicity and accuracy in seed merchantfesing. The legislation in the past has in most cases attempted to ^over the first three of these purposes, but has ignored to a large extent the last three, or whenever an attempt has been made to protect properly the seeds- ' man in his business, this has been ob- tained by sacrificing in a measure the protection given to the customer. Cooperation of Buyer and Seller. It appears to me that the legislation of the future should be the product of a thorough cooperation between the buy- er, the seller, and the various agencies which are working for the good of American agriculture. If this is not to be the case, then we are falling short of what should be the aim of the entire seed business. The seed business, as a whole, is too great a factor in the suc- cess of our agriculture to be played with or manipulated by purely selfish commercial interests, and it is gratify- ing to note the present tendency toward improvement in policies and methods in the seed business. The constructive legislation in the future will deal large- ly with the last three objects mentioned above. A proper emphasis upon these three kinds of legislation, in securing uniformity throughout the seed trade, will, I think, do more than anything else to accomplish the protection of both buyer and seller without hazarding the interests of either. This may be set- ting a high aim, but it is the only logical one that we should work for. Until that end is reached, or until the right attitude is taken by all interests to reach that end, there will be a conflict of interests in the handling of the seed business. ' The Seedsmen's Disclaimer. The past and present methods of seed merchandising and lack of control or regulation to secure uniformity in such methods have made it seem necessary to the seed trade to adopt a protective device which is known as the "seeds- men's disclaimer." The stated and im- plied object of this disclaimer has been to protect the seedsman from matters in connection with the sale of seeds over which he has no control. It is always assumed without question in the com- mercial world that an individual or con- cern is responsible for its acts or the acts of its employees in all matters over which it has control. The use of the disclaimer in the conduct of a legiti- mate seed business probably has been wholly proper and necessary for the protection of that business. However, it has been used in many cases as a cloak for the protection of unreliable dealers. This latter cannot be ques- tioned. Proper legislado^j^with a view to protecting the seedsmab as well as the consumer of seeds, will make obso- lete the disclaimer in its present form. It may be that some points in the dis- claimer, such as guaranteeing produc- JOHN H. ILLHI SEED 60.

But the nonwarranty with reference to description, or quality, or purity, will necessarily become obsolete under constructive legislation. Some of the best seedsmen today recognize that the phrasing, use and abuse of the dis- claimer have been factors in the en- couraging of noxious class legislation against seedsmen. Need of New Methods. I am not assuming that the disclaimer has not served a purpose, and has not perhaps been necessary in the ordinary conduct of business in the past. As a matter of fact, most agencies that buy and sell seeds, whether they be private or governmental, have used some form of disclaimer in the sale of seeds. When one recognizes the vast agri- cultural production of the country that is governed largely by the character and quality of the seeds that are used in such production, he will understand the necessity of giving all possible protec- tion to the planter. If it is absolutely impossible uijider the present systems of merchandising for the dealer to assume responsibility for the seeds which he sells, then it becomes necessary to de- vise ways and means of changing such systems of merchandising and bringing about a condition which makes it pos- sible for the purchaser of seeds to know exactly what he is tuying. Until we reach that end we have fallen short of our aim. I should consider myself dere- lict if this were not my aim in investi- gating methods of seed marketing, and I shall certainly do everything in my power to bring about conditions, either directly or through legislation, which will accomplish this end, and in doing so I expect the hearty cooperation of the best representatives of the seed trade. Uniform Becords of Stock. Possibly I am unnecessarily obscure in mentioning these things in the ab- stract. Let us consider specifically one phase of constructive legislation that might tend to correct present practices and bring greater protection to the seed customer without forcing the dealer to assume responsibility for things pre- sumably beyond his control. If uniform stock records were required of all seeds- men, showing certain facts regarding all stocks of seeds handled by them, thus assuring their identity as to source and disposition of such seeds, it would be a simple matter always to trace re- sponsibility for errors which are the re- sult of carelessness. This would con- struct a chain of evidence at all times covering the actual source or origin of all seed, and I do not believe that we shall ever be able to place the respon- sibility as to the knowledge of these things until uniform records of field seeds are required. It is true that such records would incur more work, perhaps, than some of the present methods of certain seedsmen, but that is no argu- ment against them unless some better and more economical method can be found of providing for accurate knowl- edge regarding all seeds that are sold. The one who purchases seeds is entitled to that knowledge. I do not mean that all items of information as to source, time and place of production should be given to the purchaser. Some of these matters are trade information which is BRITAIN Is The NATURAL HOME OP THE , CABBAGE and of BRASSICAS in general, KALE, BROCCOLI, CAULIFLOWER, etc. ALSO RUTABAGA AND TURNIP.

N. convention the members of the American Betail Nurs- erymen's Protective Association gath- ered at the call of the secretary, and discussed means of closer cooperation among members of the retail nursery trade, with the object of bettering the business for all. The matters of the retailers' organization rest largely in the hands of the directors. Those of last year were all reelected; they are: E. M. Sherman, Charles City, la.; M. E. Cashman, Owatonna, Minn.; O. J. Howard, Pomona, N. C; J. M. Pitkin, Newark, N. Y., and Earl D. Needham, Des Moines, la. The present officers are: President, M. E. Cashman; secre- tary, E. M. Sherman. They hold office until the directors elect their succes- sors. CLOSING DAYS AT CHICAGO. Adopt Development Plan. The big achievement of the American Association of Nurserymen at its con- vention in Chicago last week was the adoption of the work of the market de- velopment campaigfn, carried on during the last year by the subscribers ' organi- zation. Upon learning of the accom- plishments of the campaign during the few months during which it has been in operation and of the plans outlined by the directors and Manager J?^. F. Eock- well, the nurserymen became so en- thusiastically in favor of giving the work a larger scope that they voted to become foster father to the child the subscribers' organization has raised, and to adopt it as their own. To this end it was voted that, begin- ning in 1920, the dues of the association would be, in addition to the $10 mem- bership fee, an assessment of one-fourth of one per cent on the total yearly busi- ness of the member, with a maximum amount of $1,000. The grand total of the business done during 1918 by mem- bers of the association is placed at $14,320,000. It is expected that the total for the present year will be con- siderably larger. The original percent- age fixed by the directors of the sub- scribers' organization was one-half of one per cent. Discussion in the conven- tion sessions led to the conclusion that, although a number of members were quite willing to contribute as high as one per cent, it would be better to make the figure low for the first year, in order OFFICERS ELECTED PRESIDENT J.

Until the new dues bring in funds, next year, the market development cam- paign is still dependent upon the orig- inal subscriptions, upon which it has run so far. ^hese do not, however, pro- vide nearly the budget which Mr. Eock- well sought for the, coming year, amounting to $50,000 to $60,000. It is hoped that the two-thirds of the asso- ciation not now subscribing to the cam- paign fund will contribute voluntarily in the time intervening until the new membership fee provides the necessary revenue. Unless a large amount is so realized, the program desired for the coming year will have to be much cur- tailed. The conduct of the market develop- ment campaign is now in the hands of the executive committee of the asso- ciation, who, it is believed, will con- tinue the present directors, chosen by the subscribers' organization, in control. The chief objects of the campaign are those outlined in these columns last week. Second Day's Sessions. The morning session of the second day of the convention, June 26, was devoted to several addresses of much interest. E. G. Hill, of Eichmond, Ind., contributed a valuable paper on "The Propagation and Growing of the Eose," in which he indicated the best varieties of the various types for outdoor plant- ing, and explained their methods of propagation. Charles L. Seybold, city forester of Wilkes-Barre, Pa., spoke on * * The Grow- ing and Preparation of Evergreens for Landscape Planting," and urged the more extensive employment of ever- greens in ways now overlooked. He called attention to the kinds best suited for various uses, and mentioned a few unusual varieties that promised well. Dr. A. F. Woods, president of the Maryland State College of Agriculture, presented an address on "The Nursery- men's Opportunity in Eeconstruction." He'^upged particularly a more definite knowledge by nurserymen of the cost of producing their stock, stating that the lack «f this definite information had been the cause of friction betwieen various interests, often resulting in in- justice to the producer. He hoped the governmental aid given some industries in ascertaining costs could be obtained by the nursery trade. Secretary's Report. Secretary Sizemore's report, pre- sented at the afternoon session June 26, showed that the increase of cost of mem- bership in the association did not operate to the reduction of its numbers, but rather to ^Ite contr^^yy for this year all but forty-eight had paid up, whereas a year ago sixty-two had been dropped from the roll.

At the close of the Friday afternoon session, the nurserymen were treated to a movie show, consisting of two reels of Martin Johnson South Sea island pic- tures, a reel taken for the market de- velopment campaign at the Julius Roehrs Co. greenhouses, Eutherford, N.

At the closing session, Friday morn- ing, a resolution was adopted approving the work of the American Forestry As- sociation on behalf of memorial tree planting. The association carried out its own preaching by voting to plant a tree in a suitable place in memory of C. S. Harrison, of York, Neb., who had died during the last year. Other mem- bers who had died during the year and for whom resolutions of condolence were passed, were: M. J. Wragg, of Des Moines, la.; A. K. Klingman, of Keith- ville, Ind., and Theodore Hgenfritz, of Monroe, Mich., who died while the con- vention was in session, June 26. Besolutions were also adopted encour- aging, by action of the executive com- mittee, courses in nursery training at state universities and agricultural col- leges, and condemning government nurs- eries for growing stock employed for private or semi-private distribution. St. Louis vs. Chicago. The only time when a dccideovQlash of 94 The Florists^ Review July 3, 1919. opinion develop^ on the convention floor was at theXdosing hour Friday morning, when the ne^t place of meet- ing came up for decision. The vice- presidents had recommenied, with their nomination report, that the 1920 con- vention be held in Chicago. Then those who had posted signs, "St. Louis in 1920," on the walls of the convention room, rose in opposition. The report on meeting place was separated from the nominating report, for a vote on its own case. A representative of the conven- tion bureau of St. Louis so swayed the meeting that advocates of Chicago in- sisted action be delayed until a repre- sentative of the Chicago convention bureau appeared. Delay was finally granted, particularly when the vice- president's report was amended, reveal- ing that the decision for Chicago was only carried by two in the committee. After the Chicago representative had delivered his speech of invitation and promise, discussion was vehement for some time, but the final vote, taken by written ballot, and checked up care- fully with the badge book to give neither side undue advantage, resulted in a victory, 43 to 25, for Chicago. Plant ExUbits. Two novelties were exhibited at the convention by the Elm City Nursery Co., of New Haven, Conn., one called box barberry, described as a true va- riety of Berberis Thunbergii, a dwarf deciduous shrub, noteworthy for its hardiness. The other was a new hardy hybrid privet, called Ibolium, combining the hardiness of Ibota and the fofiage and growth of California privet. Both of these were awarded the certificate of merit. The Aurora Nurseries, of Aurora, 111., exhibited a specimen Cotoneaster acuti- folia, which was also awarded a cer- tificate of merit. Thos. B. Meehan & Co., of Dresher, Pa., had samples of their XX and Red Star brands of rafi&a on view. Dr. Slaxlatt Appears. A feature of the convention not pro- grammed was the appearance of Dr. C. L. Marlatt, chairman of the Federal Horticultural Board, who so timed his journey from the Pacific coast to Wash- ington that he was able to spend June 26 at the convention. He was intro- duced to speak on Quarantine No. 37 and was listened to with close atten- tion. Dr. Marlatt did not attempt to justify the quarantine, stating that the argu- ments for and against were sufficiently well known to make that unnecessary; ner did he refer to the history of the order except to say that some harsh words had been used in certain places, but that the officials of the Department of Agriculture are ready to forget all such instances and will hold against no man anything which has occurred. In- deed, the first part of his address was apparently intended to remove the rancor if it could not still the protest of those whose business is adversely affected. "We feel that much of the objection to the quarantine has been from failure to comprehend all its provisions," said Dr. Marlatt, "and that a short experi- ence with it will result in an important change of attitude on the part of nurs- erymen who heretofore have opposed it; indeed, the change of opinion in the nursery trade already has begun and is developing more rapidly than the offi- D.

We think it will not be long before we shall have the backing of a majority of the trade, if we have not now." Dr. Marlatt said he wanted to put emphasis on the point that adequate provision has been made for bringing in new plants. Addressing himself to a different topic, he said it is the firm con- viction of the members of the board that practically everything the nursery trade and florists have imported, and which now is shut out, can be produced in this country. He promised that the board and other oflicials of the Depart- ment of Agriculture will do everything possible to determine where and how such stock can be grown and that means will be provided for bringing in any necessary propagating material. He said the quarantine had been promul- gated a few months earlier than orig- inally planned, because conditions grow- ing out of the war made it seem oppor- tune, but that it had not been hastily conceived and would not soon be changed — the trade could go ahead with investments to grow the quarantined articles without fear that the board's backbone would give way under pres- sure. "Go ahead," he said, "and de- velop the business on a bigger, broader, better basis than heretofore." Offering to answer questions anyone might wish to ask. Dr. Marlatt sat down amid applause so scattering as to lead to the belief that no great new wave of enthusiasm for the quarantine had been aroused by the speaker's carefully chosen words. President Mayhew in- troduced the next speaker, with a differ- ent subject, so hastily that there was no discussion. Others Among Those Present.

In spite of the large supply of out- door perennials, there was a shortage of stock last week on account of the heavy influx of both wedding and fu- neral orders. The weddings were larger and more elaborate than at any time during the month and consequently called for a larger quantity of first- class flowers. There was a welcome drop in temperature the first of the week and many varieties, particularly sweet peas and roses, showed an improvement. Russell leads in quality as a summer rose. Shawyer is showing much im- provement; in fact, almost every va- riety is better after the few days' respite from the heat. Columbia finds much favor. Some medium-grade carnations are coming in, but the majority are on the down grade. A few Madonna lilies are still being offered. Gladioli are a big feature in the market. Shasta daisies are prominent on the market and are of large size. Rambler roses may almost be said to dominate the market. Cattleyas are wholesaling at $1 and $1.25 each and are far short of the demand. Gypsophila is used to a great extent in combination bouquets. Various Notes. A. J. Lanternier had a record busi- ness, especially in wedding work, last week. Mrs. Anna Kees has gone to Chicago on a two weeks' vacation. The Flick Floral Co. sent out a hand- some casket blanket of cattleyas and Russell rosea last week for a prominent citizen's fuTieral.

Greenhoflsie Heating BuBSOBiBKBS are invited to write the Editor of this Department with regard to any details of greenhouse heating that are not understood. When information is desired regarding the capacity of boil* ers, or the amoimt of radiation required for a greenhouB^he needed temperatures should be stated in the inquiry, as well as the amount of glass in the side walls, and the dimensions and general arrange- ment of the greenhouses. It is often help- ful, also, to have a sketch showing the location of the houses. SHORTAGE MAY SHUT PLANTS. Governnjent coal production figures point to "the greatest coal shortage in history" next winter unless production is stimulated immediately twenty-five per cent or more throughout the na- tion, according to a statement made public a few days ago by F. S. Peabody, chairman of the National Coal Associa- tion's special committee dealing with the prospective shortage. "The information gathered by the committee is that at the present rate of production one industrial plant out of every eight in the United States will have to shut down next winter for lack of coal," said the statement, which at- tributed the falling off in production to the extremely low demand. Coal men are becoming so alive to the situation, presaging as it does dangers ahead next winter, that they are adver- iisiijg widely" in the newspapers, using big space to call the public's attention to the facts of the conditions which the industries of this countrj^ will face when cold weather arrives, if they do not heed the warning issued now. PIPING A SASH HOUSE. Kindly state the number of 2-inch hot water pipes that will be required in a sash house 10x73 and seven feet high to the eaves, to maintain a tem- perature of 50 degrees in zero weather. The boiler capacity is ample. H. 0. H.— Pa. To heat the house referred to will re- quire about 250 square feet of hot water radiation, which will be furnished by 412 linear feet of 2-inch pipe. This will make about six runs, or three upon each side of the house. In case there are two raised benches along the side walls, it will be possible to carry one 2-inch flow pipe under each bench and connect each of the flows at the farther end of the house with a coil of two 2-inch returns. Provided the re- turns are not much if any above the top of the boiler, it will be better to carry the flow pipes above the benches, along the plates, giving each a slight fall. The expansion tank should be connected with the highest point in the system. PIPING A LEAN-TO. We are building a lean-to greenhouse, 20x70, six feet high at the eaves and ten feet high at the peak. How many runs of pipe would it take to heat the lean-to to 50 degrees, and how would it be best to place themf J. A. F.

In the meantime wc placed a number of Kroeschell Boilers In the Immediate vicinity of Mr. , and he could not help but notice their great efficiency, and last year, while at the convention, he placed his order for his first Kroeschell. The following letter speaks for itself: "We like the Kroeachell Boiler very much. It arives entire satisfaction, and it is so easy to fire.

[Signed] Mr. , Mich. KneKhell Replaces Cast Ino The Kroeschell has replaced three cast iron sectional boilers, and it certainly has given entire satisfaction. It only takes a few words to express the good quality of your boilers and they are as follows: "Of all flm]s handling boilers and advertising them truthfully, the party buying a boiler would have to get the Kroeschell, as you are certainly advertis- ing nothing but facts."

BECAUSE- The Parnsworth Duplex Boiler Feeder— front view of 8-iDch machine, showinK duplex receiving and delivery check valves. Farnsworth DUPLEX BOILER FEEDER "The Greatest Coal Saver Ever Offered the Steam Plant." THAT'S' THE REASON It will undouiwidly pay you to investigate at once the ooal-saving change from the "OLD to tlie NEW" way of handling con- densation— from the old method of vacuum pumps, etc., jjfco the Farnsworth system. Our engineers are at your service to answer any boiler feeding or condensation problems. ( Writ9 now for oar literature. ) The Farnsworth Duplex Boiler Feeder— rear view of 8-inch machine, showing steam and vent connections, controllinK alternate chambers. While one side is dis- charginK the condensation under pressure, the oti er side is filling. It works with a continuous, automatic flow. 1. Farnsworth machines conserve the heat units in the condensation. 2. Provide better heating or drying by clearing the water out of the beating sys- tem or heated apparatus. 3. Pull a vacuum on slug- gish return lines, clear the water and provide a fiee cir- culation of steam. 4. In addition to pulling a vacuum, the condensation is held under pressure and pumped under pressure di- rectly into the boiler at a high tenaperature. 6. Eliminate piston or c'en- trifuifal type boiler feed pumps, feed water heaters, vacuum pumps, receiving tanks, floor space for the al)ove mentioned, considerable pip- ing, pipecovering.lubricating oils, packing, etc. 6. Feed water into boilers much hotter than pumps can or will handle it. 7. Prevent loss of heat units going up the vent pipe from receiving tank. 8. Prevent loss of heat units going down the sewer from the overflow pipe of the average low pressure open feed water heater. 9. Use 75 to 93 % less steam than a piston or centrifugal type pump. 10. Feed cond ensation from high pressure traps, coils or heated apparatus directly into the boiler at a tempera- ture over 300 degrees. 11. Create better circula- tion through heating system or heated apparatus so that le^s back pressure can be carried on the exhaust line of the engine. 12. Provide closed system and drain condensate under pressure so that no heat units are lost by reducing pressure before the water enters the boiler. 13. Drain vacuum systems, eliminate the vacuum pump and the necessity of operating high pressure boilers on vacuum systems. 14. Pull a higher vacuum on heating systems than any vacuum pump. 15. Use 90% less steam than vacuum pumps. Farnsworth Success means power plant effici- ency. The 2no.0(X) H. P. machines in operation last year proved to the engi- neer that our claims were true and gave service and satisfaction. Simplicity and POSITIVE ACTION are two FARNSWORTH FEATURES. nrii«ti> CHcc ^_eo«oj-! This machine drains L. P. Condensation until tank is full, then it rocks on bearing and automatically opens small valve, which admits boiler pressure steam that forces the water into boiler, or if used as pump in dis- tant building, will pump the water to any point of use.

If there is glass in the walls of the greenhouse, allow- ance should be made for this in deter- mining the radiation. Without glass in the walls of the greenhouse and with the rear wall heated, I would run a 3-inch flow pipe on the rear wall about three feet from the peak. Carry this along the end of the house and connect it with eight 2-inch returns. Three of these should be on the front wall of the house, or under the front bench, and the others distributed under the other benches. With thirty inches of glass in the front wall I would use an additional re- turn, and one or two others would be needed if the rear wall is cold, depend- ing upon the construction. All pipes should run downhill, and the expansion tank should be connected with the high- est point in the system. PITTSBURGH. The Market. There was an exceptionally good mar- ket last week, but it would have been even better had there been sufficient stock. Following the extremely hot weather of last month, the last two weeks have been ideal growing weather, 8un8hine,^£ji«L^occasional showers alter- nating. JSven\ this, however, did not produce enWugh^owers to meet the un- usually big demand for wedding and commencement work. There has been a sharp advance in prices in practically all varieties of stock. Gladioli have been the staple and have demanded .from $10 to $12. There were not nearly enough of these prime favorites. Eoses averaged from $6 to $11 per hundred, except American Beauties, which brought $1.50 to $2 per dozen. Carnations were $2 straight per hundred. Sweet peas are just begin- ning to come into the market. They are of good quality and sell for $1 and $1.50 per hundred. Various Notes. Samuel McClements is one of the most active of a number of representative East Liberty business men who are informally organized to do their bit in relieving the tedium of the soldier patients' life in the Parkview hospital. Bandolph & McClements' windows have notices, conspicuously placed, requesting their customers and passers-by to loan their cars to convey patients to and from East Liberty at convenient times. Once in town, the soldiers are hustled to Beymer's and Huyler's for refreshments and then taken to the theaters. Mr. McClements usually contributes the floral decora- tions for these occasions and they are appreciated fully as much as the sweets. James O. Hill has returned to civilian life and resumed business connections with his brothers on Fifth avenue June 27.

Taylor and William Gray, and the un- usual display of orchids and ferns from the James J. Van Alen houses. A, J. Fish, of New Bedford, had a col- lection of named outdoor roses, which took the society's silver medal for col- lection of hardy climbing roses. Alan E. Wheeler received the so- ciety's silver medal for his collection of roses. For a new rose, with at least one flower fully opened and two or more other flowers in well developed stage, shown in pot or tub, Kempenaar & Chris- tensen took two prizes — with Jacques Kneppers and Mrs. Wemys Quinn. James Robertson, John Samuels, Alex- ander Fraser, C. M. Bugholt, William McKay, John McGowan and Andrew Dorward took prizes with exhibits from the estates where they are employed. Various Notes.

The Market. Normal demands from funeral sources with a few late weddings were the only active features of the closing week of June. The increasing supply of outdoor flowers and the departure of many families for their seaside and country residences brought about the usual con- ditions for this time of the year. Various Notes. Johnston Bros, had the house decora- tions for the Priest-Markoff wedding last week. Matthew Segal, formerly with the Mann Co., at the Boston Flower Ex- change, is now in another line of busi- ness in this city. Charles H. Hunt is making extensive repairs and alterations in his storage frames, on Burnside street. Charles Smith, of the Eastern Wreath Mfg. Co., was a business visitor in Bos- ton last week. Timothy O'Connor and family will occupy their summer cottage at Nar- ragansett Pier this season. M. Sweeney had the bouquets and the house and church decorations for the Mason-Locke wedding last week. Mr. and Mrs. Edward J. Brooke and family arrived at their summer cottage at Warwick Downs last week for the season. Alexander H, Johnson is chairman of the state committee on organization of branches of the American Legion. The sons of the late William Hay are making extensive improvements at their father's estate in Oaklawn. The green- houses are being thoroughly renovated, new benches installed and a general re- organization under way. George Johnson & Son are making ex- tensive repairs in their office building, corner of Elmwood avenue and Earle street. Hugo H. De Wildt, proprietor, was operated on last week for appendi- citis. W. H. M. Springfield, 111. — Henry L. Phelps was seriously injured June 13, when the bicycle which he was riding was struck by an automobile. He was rushed to the Springfield hospital, where an X-ray revealed that a hip was fractured. He is now slightly improved.

The Florists' Review j/i< THE ENEROIZER FOR SOIL BACTERIA Is Coming to America! WONDERFUL RESULTS have been obtained by the use of RITO in Great Britain during the last three years. Owing to the war it has been impossible to export, but now we are free to do so. Horticulturists of the U. S. A. will at once avail themselves of this unique method of increasing their products and of getting their stuff ready for the market some weeks earlier than they have hitherto done, and so secure a much higher price. WHAT IS RITO ? — RITO is a humus, organic or natural fertilizer, a stimulant and energizing medium for soil bacteria. WHAT IS HUMUS 7 — Humus is a complex substance or mixture of substances present in the richest of soils. It is black in color and hence renders the soil darker. RITO contains Humus in the right form for fertilizing the soil. WHY ADD HUMUS 7 — Because most soils contain very little (if any) Humus, and it is necessary for the proper development of the useful soil bacteria. The bacteria find in the Humus constituents a suitable medium for their robust propagation. That is, Humus is a source of food and energy for the soil bacteria. WHAT IS THE ANALYSIS OF RITO 7— It has very little chemical analysis and it does not come in the same category as fertilizers. It is essentially an energizing medium for soil bacteria. Phgsphates and potash are present in all soils, but in the ordinary way they are not readily available. RITO, by energizing the soil bacteria, is calculated to make the phosphates and potash available for the plant. It also stimulates the nitrogen fixing bacteria into action, so that the consequent development is out of all proportion to its analysis. RITO takes the place of farmyard manure, or it may be used in conjunction with farmyard manure or any recognized artificials. RITO is free from weed seeds, spores and gertus, and from tne egg» or larvae of noxious insects. It is well known that the soil is not a dead inert mass of matter, but that it teems with bacteria, which only need to be treated properly to be called into activity. There are millions in every spadeful of soil. RITO may be used in the open or under glass. What RITO Users Say:- " I used RITO in the soil for my Tomatoes this year. The result was the best crop I ever had, and / started picking two to three weeks earlier than usual, from seed sown same date as previous years." A market gardener says that his RITO-treated lettuce were ready for the market a month before the untreated ones, with the result that the treated ones brought 2s. 6d. per dozen and the untreated ones, when they were ready for the market, brought is. per dozen. " I tried RITO last year on Potatoes, and they yielded 30 per cent, better than those not treated." " Every ounce of fruit from both the treated and the untreated Tomatoes has been gathered and care- fully weighed. The weight of fruit gathered from the treated portions average just five times the amount as from the untreated portion." RITO is packed in double htkgs, and tl'c price is $5.00 per 100 Please address your orders at once to The Molassine " I have used RITO in the Peach Houses, and find that it greatly improved both the quality of the fruit and also the growth. I also find RITO very good if used when mixing soil for potting various plants, and I have also used it on my Vines with excellent re- sults." " I have pleasure in testifying to the merits of RITO. It is ' Right Ho ' and no mistake. I never saw Tomatoes do so well as when your RITO was applied as a top-dressing mixed with the soil; the roots the plants made in this way were extraordinary, and the crops correspondingly good. The same ap- plies to Cucumbers, also Chrysanthemums and to plants generally. It seems to consume the moisture, hence less watering is required." " RITO-treated Chrysanthemums made a much quicker and better start than they have usually done — in fact, the plants show a great improvement." lbs. ex Quay, Boston or New York.

A satisfactory volume of business was done last week and, while there was no surplus, as a rule there were enough flowers to meet requirements. Roses are good for this time of year. Garden flowers are in good jdemand and make up for the shortage in other lines. If the hot, dry weather continues, the effect will be felt all too soon, as flowers are none too plentiful as it is. A good rain is needed badly. Club Outing. The Tri-City Florists' Club held its annual outing at the William Knees cot- tage, Eock River, June 24. The al^air was an old-time basket picnic, well at- tended and equally enjoyed by old and young. Amusements and refreshments were plentiful. C. O. E. Boehm made a short address urging the club members to get together more closely and talk over matters of business more freely. Hemry (Jaethje invited the club for the July meeting. Emil Kranz, of Muscatine, la., and William Bearing, of Newton, la., were out-of-town guests. The former invit- ed the club and families to meet in Mus- catine in August, promising them a fine supper and dance. W. G. South Bend, Ind.— The Beyer Floral Co., one of the old and successful con- cerns here, has been purchased by W. R. Beyer and will be known in the future as the Beyer Flower Shop. Wellington, Kan. — Mrs. Eva Lupher is preparing to open a retail store here this summer. For two yean she has sold flowers, made designs and done funeral work without a store. Brewton, Ala. — J. H. Reeves has es- tablished here a new business known as the Reeves Foliage Co. Mr. Reeves for- merly owned the Natural Foliage Preser- vative Co., of Savannah, Ga., and later the Natural Foliage Co., of St. Louis. He is starting in business here to per- petuate magnolia leaves, beech sprays and other forest foliages, which have come to be used in large quantities the last few years.

Peonies have been the mainstay in this market the last week, other flowers having been scarce. The market has been tightening up all the week and every day found carnations and longer roses growing scarcer. Outdoor flowers have played a big part in many wedding and other decorations; even wild flowers of different kinds have been used. Bachelor's buttons, coreopsis, gail- lardia, sweet peas, daisies, baby's breath and gladioli have been selling well. Candidum lilies are just about over with and it looks as though this week would wind up the peonies. Black- eyed Susans have made their appear- ance. Water lilies have been cleaning up well. Orchids, valley and white roses have been in great demand and have been hard to procure. Valley has been bringing as high a price as it ever has and is extremely scarce. Outdoor sweet peas have hardly moved at all. They are almost a drug on the market, more being thrown away than are marketed. Although business is dropping off, everybody agrees that it is better than it was at this time in former years. Delphiniums are just about finished and they seem to be greatly missed. Various Notes. Charles Woodman, formerly of the Cleveland Florists' Exchange, but now with the Lamborn Floral Co., of Al- liance, was a visitor last week. He has been laid up with blood poisoning, the result of a prick from a rose thorn. Claude Tyler, of Salem, O., called on the wholesalers last week. Martin Eeukauf, of Philadelphia, was a visitor; also Harry Flickinger, of Bar- berton, and Frank Riley, of the Heepe Co., Akron, O. Ray Smith, son of Timothy Smith, has just been released from the army and is back helping his father. Walter Priest, of the Cleveland Plant & Flower Co., left on his vacation last week. He will spend two weeks at Chippewa lake. The annual florists* picnic will be held the latter part of July, probably at Willow beach.

The Florists^ Review 113 A Glazing Putty of Real Value In all our experience and investigation we had never found a preparation for bulbing over the outside of a greeo house that was quite satisfactory, until we ran across PERMANITE. This was about four years ago. At that time we set about investigating the merits of PERMANITE proceeded to watch the results of its application to greenhouse roofs. Last year we were entirely convinced of its high quality and durability, and ac- cepted the western agency for the sale of these goods. We applied PERMANITE to hundreds of greenhouse roofs, over almost every part of the United States. The results obtained were highly satis- factory indeed. Glass roofs of all kinds, both old and new, were made water-tight and air-tight, saving thousands of plants from being spoiled by water dripping on them and saving many hundreds of tons of coal by making the roofs proof against the wind and storms of winter.

Chicago, IlL ASPECTS OF SEED CONTROL. [Concluded from page 91.] the proper share of responsibility with each seedsman regarding the source, origin, description and quality of the stock handled by him. In accepting a shipment of seeds from another seeds- man with the accompanying required statement of facts, his responsibility would include only those factors which covered the handling of the informar tion passed on to him, and facts regard- ing the seed which can be determined by observation of his own investigation. In considering all of these matters as they relate to the seed business, one can- not help but recognize that the future holds the greatest possibilities in store for the progressive seedsmen. The seed business has made great strides in the past, developing from practically noth- ing, little more than a century ago, up to a most important and necessary busi- ness. The future holds much greater opportunities in store* for the seedsman than any period of the past. The Seedsmen of the Future. If the seed business is to come into its own, it is going to demand the atten- tion of men specially qualified and edu- cated to conduct that business. The seed business has reached its present de- gree of progress through the ac- tivities of men most of whom have drifted into the seed business from some other commercial activity, or as a side line of the grain business, hardware business, grocery business, or some other similar line of merchandising. I do not wish to take one iota from the credit due to the men who have built up the seed business, even though they have come from these other lines, but I sim- ply wish to emphasize that the seed busi- ness of the future will demand the best talent that is available for the conduct- ing of such business. I feel that the field is sufficiently large and attractive to invite young men to qualify them- selves particularly for this business. I do not mean to suggest an agricultural training solely, but a combination of agricultural and commercial training, which will fit a man to solve the com- plex problems which seedsmen are regu- larly called upon , to meet. The legisla- tion of the futur/6 will develop business opportunities, and the next twenty-five years probably will show a much greater progress in the development of the seed business and the regulation of the busi- ness than any twenty-five years of the past. Mr. Greenhouse: Do you know that you will last longer and that your sash will hold their position better and open and close more evenly if they are equipped with an Advance Sash Operating Device ? What ? You are aware of it I Then the next time your order comes in, tap him on the shoulder and tell him to write the Advance Company and get their catalogue illustrating and describing the well known Advance Sash Operator. Don't forget that we carry a complete line of green- house fittings at all times and for repairing houses there is nothing better than Permanite and we carry a large stock of it at all times.

Or- dinary makeshift greenhouses may answer the purpose, but harder work is required of the owner and smaller returns for his labor and investment.

We take pleasure in announcing to the trade that we have perfected a new one-hand Permanite Gun that we have been working on for the past four years. Tested in every way - from every angle and in any position— it works without fail. A steady, uniform flow of Permanite -JUST RIGHT FOR GLAZING— can always be depended upon — one that's under perfect control of the operator at all times; and the beauty part is that the operator has perfect control of himself as well. This new Gun is mechanically correct -all moving parts except the plunger are on the inside — and mind you, there is nothing compli- cated about this gun— just a plain, practical and well thought-out machine that does the trick quickly, easily and with perfect under- standing of the work that it was built to do. No matter what your past experience may have been — we venture to say that just five minutes with this new one-hand Per- manite Gun will make you realize that Greenhouse Glazing Methods have been revolutionized by this new invention. The Gun you wished for but never had! Particulars given glad- ly—cheerfully. Miiw M 66i« iMuo tvoiiiE, cumiua. om rt OBtOAdO 1018 108&AU MAX tB 1919 OABUHS CO .

GERANIUMS AN INVITATION To Chicago Geranium Growers and Others Visiting Chicago this Summer. Come to my greenhouses and inspect the stock of a Geranium to displace Nutt — WALL'S WINNER. This Geranium appeared five years ago among a batch of my own propagation, and from the day of its discovery has stood out above every other sort on the place. COLOR— Bright, glowing red. GROWTH— Easy to root. Branches without pinching. Makes short, compact plant. Early, free bloomer. Large trusses carried well above the foliage. Stands sun and drought. I am discarding Nutt and believe other growers will do the same when they have WALL'S WINNER. All interested parties are invited to call. If you can't come, send a mall order. First shipments in August. 2%-in. plants, dozen, $4.00; 25 for $7.60; 100 for $25.00; 50 at 100 rate. J. WALL, 3236 N. Springfield Ave., (Chicago. GERANIUMS. SPBOLiL JUNB OFFBB. Per Per 100 1000 S.

"' r.if'i'i', f'.'T;. fM^'ti, r, WVt'^ m COUNTING THE COST Oi^ A CORNER STORE The big question is whether the extra cost of a corner location is repaid by the advantages it affords. Some of the most successful florists have decided in the affirmative. Here are some of the arguments on which they base their opinions. "To let" signs in corner saloons make their consideration timely. RANTED that, generally speaking, the corner loca- tion is the best for a re- tail store, does it hold the jame advantages for flo- 'ists that it does for other kinds of business, and are those advantages valuable enough to pay for higher rental ? Do the advantages hold only for shops doing a transient trade, such as cigar stores, saloons and drug stores? Or are there benefits as valuable, or nearly as valuable, to the florist? Most retail florists in the large cities — that is where the difference between the corner and the middle of the block is greatest — have been content with lo- tjy.^^^ THE TEXAS CONVENTION ?*^1r?s?:^?*\1r^r?s^^?s\1r?i^1^?s^1r?s?]r?SYlr?sv1lr*v^ TEXANS GATHER AT AUSTIN. Opening Is Auspicious. The energy and enthusiasm with which the members of the Texas State Florists' Association have been boost- ing their annual meeting showed results when the convention opened at Austin, July 9. For weeks, almost months, one has heard, not only in Texas, but in the neighboring states as well, declarations of the live spirit and trade importance of the convention. This advertising has produced results, and, although at present writing one cannot give accurate figures on the attendance, indications and opinions are strong that this gath- ering will surpass all previous ones in the south. Texas florists have prospered during the last season, and they not only feel that they can afford to take a little holiday away from business, particular- ly if they are combining business with pleasure, but they have a strong desire to get ideas on what another year holds for them, and how they can best take advantage of what it has in store for them. There is still the suspicion, based on the old belief that "what goes up must come down," that the prices which have been soaring upward are, now that peace is established, due to come down again. Though commercial and indus- trial signs are against such a slump, in the near future at any rate, florists want to get their fellow tradesmen's assurance on this score before they be- gin to make actual dollars and cents preparation for extensive business next season. A Southern Organization. Then there have been efforts made to promote an all-southern organization. In so important an undertaking the flo- rists of the section are especially inter- ested. The south faces its own condi- tions and its own problems, different from those of the parts of the country where the florists' business has been longer and more strongly entrenched. ^ Whether the peculiarities of the sec- tion are of such moment that a large organization to help its members cope with them is warranted, and whether the realization of such a need has en- tered the minds of a sufficient number of florists south of Mason and Dixon's line to enable a thoroughgoing organi- zation to be established, are not settled in the minds of the majority. This question occupies a large place in the minds of the men who have gathered at Austin, and is much dis- cussed by them. Opening Session. A large attendance was present at the opening session Wednesday morning, July 9, when Edgar Hall, president of the Austin Florists' Club, which had prepared plans to fill two busy days for their visitors, called the meeting to order. After the opening formalities. President W. J. Baker, of Fort Worth, delivered his address to the members of the association. He said: "It is with the greatest of pleasure that I greet you here in our capital city under the influences and almost in the shadow of the building that means so much to every Texan, The spirit here represented is indicative of that manifested all over this great Em- pire state, and is the same spirit that will make of our state association one of the greatest, if not the greatest, in this land of ours. * ' We have been passing through some serious and trying times, both as Ameri- cans and as business men and florists. Fuel was short, stock was scarce, and the labor situation has been serious be- yond question, but with the return of our boys and the general loosening up of the trafic and other similar serious problems, we should enter the arena of business this coming season with con- fidence and determination to make it far and above the best season we have ever experienced. National Organizations. "I want to speak a word in behalf of the S. A. F. Not that the society needs my recommendation, for every Texas Association member, I am sure, is acquainted with its work. But as up-to-date florists we should be willing and anxious to affiliate with an organ- ization that is doing so much for the florists' business in general. If it had not been for this great organization, there is little question but what flo- rists would have been looked upon in an entirely different light during the past world war. We probably should have been allowed no coal at all, and our shipments would have likely been turned down by the railroads as nonessential. Let us rally to such an organization. "Let me ask that no florist leave this convention without sending in his ap- plication for membership in the Flo- rists' Telegraph Delivery Association. See the committee and get your name in at once. It is the best paying invest- ment a florist can make, and the cheap- est advertisement in the country today. Your name printed on the list sent out every few weeks alone is worth the price, and it brings results. Ask any F. T. D. member. Publicity Campaign. "To my mind, the greatest single thing ever done by the florists, as an organization, was the launching of the advertising campaign in the convention at New York in 1917. The people are waking up to the desirability and im- portance of flowers through these good advertisements, and the florist receives the benefit. Tie your own ads onto the general campaign, and send your sub- W. J. Baker, President of the Texas State Florists' Association. 10 The Florists^ Review July 10, 1919. scription at once to the publicity fund. "We have in Texas an organization for the purpose of furthering the in- terest of a botanical garden, of which John S. Kerr is president, J. M. Eam- sey, vice-president, and L. J. Tackett, secretary. I bespeak for that organiza- tion your hearty cooperation, and I hope that something will be done at this con- vention thaf» will help to make possible ■a. botanical garden in the near future, that not only will make every Texan proud, but will be an object of interest to all horticulturists as well as the peo- ple at large. "In closing I wish to congratulate you on your splendid attendance «n this occasion for renewing our activities, and to thank the Atistini.fl(?rists and our other friends here, in behalf" of myself and all other visiting florists, for their hearty reception and cooperation for a successful convention." r^V'^^JtXSVJlXS/Jt^l-VS/JliS^lAS^ FOR THE FISH FANCIERS Rliy^ffif^ffi?^fe^r1fr^|y?S1ifrti[^^ PBOPEB CABE OF AQUABIA. Some Hints for Fish Fanciers. The bowl of goldfish that one used to •see in many flower stores has, like everything else in recent years, pro- gressed into something much more elab- orate. Often aquaria have been made a profitable side line in flower stores. At this season many a florist has fish in the pond that is a feature of his sum- mer window. And some florists have, from slight acquaintance, formed in a way such as this, become enthusiastic fish fanciers, devoting much time and money to the hobby. Indeed, one of the foremost retailers says he cannot af- ford an automobile; he needs the money to spend on his collection of fish, which, by the way, is fine enough to be.'wortha^^ such devotion. To many wSio. have liowl reached his degree of Its^wlddge and skill in the care of aquaria, soine sug- gestions for their better success are •offered. CM^ Sources of Failure. The chief sources of failure m the management of aquaria are overcrowd- ing, overfeeding, sudden temperature changes, lack of proper plant life and insufficient lighting. The tendency to overcrowd aquaria is a common fault. A safe rule to fol- low is to allov/one gallon of water to «very 1-inch fi«h; thus a 10-gallon aquariummay contaite should be given than i^-~fi?>77 -r " ■ •- July 10, 1919. The Florists' Review 11 HOW SCIENCE AIDS FLORISTS College courses ia floriculture now are not only teaching how to grow plants, but principles underlying their growth |HE application of scientific principles to floriculture is of comparatively recent date. The flower-growing business, however, is an old one. In the early days of •American flower produc- tion, commercial growers of flowering plants recognized the need of but few scientific principles. The greater num- ber of these florists received their train- ing abroad, and the apprentice system through which this was obtained taught methods, rather than principles. These men learned to grow plants and to know under what conditions they at- tained their best development, but they knew little of th^ reasons for their suc- cesses or failures. I>aring the last decade, conditions have changed in a marked degree. The demand for rare flowers of better qual- ity has steadily in- creased, and with this demand there has come a keener competition. This competition and the demand for better products have made i t necessary for present-day leaders in the flower pro- ducing industry to call on science for every assistance possible, so that there will be better methods of produc- tion and these at the least possible ex- pense. The margin of profit in the flower business is not a broad one. Opinion Changes. In the earlier pe- r i 0 d 8 of work in teaching floricul- ture, the writer met with but little en- , couragement from men engaged in the business. Their opinions of the courses at the agri- cultural colleges were often ex- pressed in terms far from compli- mentary. Within recent years the horizon lias broadened and many men, who at first ridiculed the teaching of floricul- ture in agricultural colleges, have so completely changed By E. A. White, Secretary of the American Ro8e Society and Professor of Floriculture at Cornell University. their opinions that they are now not only eager that their sons should take work in these institutions, but they are offering most cordial cooperation in every way possible. The field truly has broadened during the period in which floricultural instruc- tion has been given in the United States. Business Is Growing Rapidly. But we should review rather briefly the relation which the various sciences bear to methods of present-day flower and plant production. Botany, in its various branches, probably touches the subject most closely, for in plant-grow- ing, under the somewhat artificial con- Prof. E. A. VhHe. ditions in greenhouses, an application of the principles which govern healthy reproduction and growth in plants is constantly necessary. However, before we have plants, we must have soil, and the application of chemistry to the soil is doubtless as important as is botany. The flower-growing business in the United States is important. In New York state it is especially so. The last census states that the value of the an- nual production of flowers and plants in this state approximates $5,000,000. This is approached by no other state. The total annual production for the United States was valued at $34,500,- 000. This was an increase of eighty- five per cent during the last decade. In the early history of plants and our study of plant nomenclature such names as Theoprastus, Pliny, Linnseus and others stand out prominently, and we must not forget that scientific flori- culture as it is prac- t i c e d today owes much to these men. During the earlier periods of ornamen- tal plant culture, valuable work was done through scien- tific expeditio- s to foreign countries, piloted by experi- enced plant collect- ors. These men brought back many species especially suited for growth not only under glass, but in the open as well. Early Collections. Most of these ear- lier scientific col- lecting expeditions were from England, Germany and France, but the spe- cies of plants col- lected were sooner or later brought to America, and our conservatory col- lectors were thus enriched. The pains- taking work of Ces- alpino, Linnaeus, Jussieu, Gartner and others in the classi- fication of plants has been of inesti- mable value to present - day plant- growers, for, through a knowl- edge of the habitat and relationship of plants, we have 12 The Florists^ Review July 1©. 1919. gained valuable information of their cultural requirements, such as soil, tem- perature, light and moisture. In the early part of the nineteenth century, many collecting expeditions were piloted by such systematic botan- ints as Sir William Hooker, Sir Joseph Banks and others, and the species of plants from both tropical and temperate sections which were found suitable for growing under glass in this country were increased many fold. In later years, the work of these men was fol- lowed by many others, among whom were Sir Harry Veitch, Verschaffelt, Engelmann, Victor Lemoine and the Vilmorins. Botanists Helped. The scientific work of Dr. Torrey, Asa Gray and other systematic botanists has been of great value to floriculture, for many of the species of native plants they listed are now valuable garden spe- cies. Through the work of these men, therefore, our list of ornamental plants has been increased by introducing spe- cies from the flora of every part of the globe. While some of these plant collectors have been practical horticulturists, they have been so educated that they have been enabled to conduct scientific ex- periments. They have learned to as- sociate practice with scientific truth. Among such men, who have been en- gaged in the work in recent years, no name stands out more prominently than than of Jackson Dawson. While Mr. Dawson's early education and training were largely of a practical character, his natural instinct enabled him to do work of a strictly scientific nature. The results of his propagation of mate- rial sent him by plant collectors and his breeding of hardy roses have been un- usual. His introductions, the Dawson rose, W. C. Egan, Farquhar and Sargent roses, have been valuable acquisitions in the floricultural list of species. His "passing on" is a distinct loss to the horticultural world. A scientific collector of note in re- cent years is E. H. Wilson, the student of Japanese and Chinese species, whose work for the Arnold Arboretum at For- est Hills, Mass., is bringing to our American flower lovers such ornamental species of value as Lilium myriophyl- lum, Lilium Sargentiae, Hydrangea Sar- gentiana. Clematis montana var. rubens, Buddleia variabilis var. superba, Syr- inga Wilsonii, and many others. The history of the work of these collectors and a study of their introduction of or- namental plants are extremely interest- ing, but space will not permit a detailed discussion of them. The Needs of Plants. Following the introduction of spe- cies of plants from foreign countries and the somewhat unnatural conditions under which it became necessary to grow them, the plant culturist began to realize the need of a thorough knowl- edge of the requirements of different plants as regards light, moisture and heat. Slowly but surely present-day floriculturists are coming to realize that they must have a better knowledge of plant structure and physiological proc- esses in plant life before they can suc- cessfully grow plants. That division of botany which we know as plant physiology, and which relates to the vital function of the plant, is, then, of the greatest impor- tance to the grower of ornamental plants under glass or in the open. Not only has the scientist learned many plant secrets in this respect during the last decade, but he has been able to in- struct the practical grower regarding them and to demonstrate that certain environmental factors, such as heat, light and many others, so change and modify plant tissue that improvement in plants may be marked. Owe Much to Scientists. The results of the wonderful investi- gations of Hofmeister, Qreen, De Can- doUe and von Mohl in morphology; of Robert Brown, Schleiden, Malphigi and Nageli in vegetable anatomy; of Koel- reuter, Sprengel, Major and many others in plant physiology, have taught, and are now teaching, plant growers the principles which underlie cultural prac- tices. A thorough knowledge of the science of botany is, therefore, necessary for the successful cultivation of ornamen- tal plants, either under glass or in the open, and the gradual development of this field through scientific investiga- tion and research is constantly reveal- ing new truths which closely affect plant growth.

All were agreed that it took only a brief time for the insect to destroy a crop of tubers, one farmer saying that his field was ravaged in two weeks, and another declaring that it required only ten days for his crop to be ruined. "And besides," added the latter, "the pesky bugs roosted in the trees around my patch to see if I wouldn't plant again," "That's nothing," said a seed house salesman who had been an interested listener, "When I was in Pumpkin Center last spring I saw two bugs ex- amining the books of the store there to find out who had bought seed."

The illustrations on this- page give a fairly good idea of the new addition which W. Armacost & Co. are making to their already large range at Sawtelle, Cal. The addition consists of seven houses, each 36x300 feet. It has been made necessary by the increasing busi- ness done by the firm. The Sawtelle range is located on seventeen and one- half acres of land, nine acres of which are under lath for the culture of cut plumosus. The greenhouses comprise 200,000 feet of modern glass, and are devoted to roses, orchids and riot plants. The work of sawing the lumber, paint- ing, glazing, and everything else con- nected with the building, is carried out by employees of the firm. A sawmill was built here to take care of this, and a supply of box lumber and other stock needed in the business was laid in. Two new boilers, of 125 horsepower each, have been installed to take care of the additional glass, the whole battery be- ing under one roof. The record of this firm is an interest- ing one. Mr. Armacost started here in a modest way 'some nine or ten years lago. His business ability and per- sistence soon showed that he would get on, and, as is always the case, paved the way to interesting outside capital. Mr. Armacost has made good use of his time and from a small beginning has worked up one of the finest businesses in the southwest. Some time ago it was found necessary tp open a wholesale store in town to take care of the produce of the green- houses, and from then on an increasingly large shipping business has been done.- H. E.

The cable between New York and France has been unusually busy during the last fortnight and each exchange of messages makes the situation as to Paper Whites look less pleasing. "Crop failure" is the explanation and the ex- porters at Ollioules seem to think it should absolve them on every count. "Small sizes predominate" is by way of preparation. "Impossible to buy here at any price" from an Ollioules dealer of good reputation indicates that the chance to get into the game has passed. The American dealers, as a rule, also have stopped selling; they want to see how much of a delivery they ■will get on the orders they have placed and they want to find out just what MOTT-LY MUSINGS. "We are standing on the threshold of the dawn of a new era," observed Henry F. Michell, founder and presi- dent of the H. F. Michell Co., Phila- delphia, Pa. Possibly the thought up- permost in the mind of the speaker was reflected in the person of the writer, who recalled, especially appropriately at this important point of our country's history, the time when the head of the big Quaker City seed house extended the glad hand welcoming a warm- blooded and thirsty voyager to the city of William Penn, and introduced him to his first American soda, which, by the way, tasted sweeter than any since. Though it is more than thirty years since this interesting event happened, at Second and Chestnut streets, the drug store has continued to dispense ever since what is apparently to be- come the national beverage. Allen Greenhouses, at Hudson, N. Y., liave experienced a big season, although heavily handicapped by the lack of light, owing to deposits of cement dust carried from works some distance away. The curious fact is that though the plants fail to bloom under glass, vigor- ous growth, in addition to profuse flow- ering, follows when they are planted outdoors.

THE PEONY AND ITS PEOPLE. From Amateur to Professional. When, in 1897, I came to Wyomissing, where I could have a real garden, one pf the first things I determined was to have a complete collection of peonies, "a white one, a red one and a pink one." Then I discovered that EUwanger & Barry had a great collection, as many as twenty kinds. After I had gotten theso, one of Lemoine's catalogues fell into my hands and, after some hesitation over the extravagance, I ipade the plunjk. I sent to him my first foreign order in 1901. Only then did I realize what was before me, but it was too late. The peony bug had gotten me, as it has gotten many others, and will get you too if it once gets fairly hold of you. Orders from Dessert and others soon foi- loweJF. Tipn from Kelway in ttpgland. There must have been a sort of peony epidemic prevalent at that time, for I learned afterwards that a number of those who today are well known in the peony world were similarly affected at about the same time in the same manner, the two Petersons, Shaylor, McKisaock, Ward, John Good, Betscher and others. In the Thurlow ranks, where it had partly subsided (Mr. Thurlow having recently sold his collection), there was a fresh outbreak of the craze. I was not then in touch with these people, but I had heard of a Peony Society. I packed my grip and started to Boston to see the peony show and learn something about peonies. Ever since then Boston has seemed to me the "Hub" in peony matters, as it used to be for me in things musical, for here in this hall I got my first real inspiration. I stopped off at Cottage Gardens to see Mr. Ward, then presi- dent of the Peony Society. He was busy collecting flowers for the show, noting new things coming into bloom for the first time, identifying things untrue, etc., and trying his best to be polite to me, all at once. In the light of later ex- perience, I can appreciate his position, but neither he nor I suspected then that I was to be his successor. America's Leaders. Mr. Shaylor carried off the honors at that first show I attended, in 1906, as he has done so many times since, with his splendid collection. Mr. McKissock was there .with his fine collection of novel- ties from France. Of course the Thur- lows were represented there, and in the center of the room stood a massive great vas9 of Richardson's Rubra Superba, which carried off the first prize. Here I first met the late Rev. C. S. Har- rison, "Evangelist of the Peony," for he, more than anyone else, has preached the gospel of the peony throughout the great northwest. Here I met our Mr. Fewkes, whom all of us of the Peony Society have come to hold in such sin- cere regard. I visited T. C. Thurlow, the first of the great peony enthusiasts in New England, at his, delightful and hos- pitable home. I visited James McKis- sock, and his' beautiful collection at West Newton. Up at Wellesley Hills I found Mr. Shaylor among his peonies. In one cor- ner, carefully screened under a tent from the hot sun, we came to the climaK of our visit, when he said to us, "There, gentlemen, is the celebrated Lady Alex- andra Duff." He was doomed to dis- appointment, for it turned out at the show to be identical with Grandiflora Nivea Plena. Others had had similar disappointments, for Lady Duff turned out to be first James Kelway, then Mrs. Gwyn Lewis, and a host of other things, even to Festiva Maxima, till Mr. Shay- lor, in disgust, pronounced the Lady a myth, using a famous quotation, ' ' There ain't no such thing." I met many others there, whom for lack of time I cannot mention, but I formed friendships with them that have endured to this day. Some of them have passed away, but the greatest thing I learned was that peony people as a class are mighty fine people. They are true blue.

Wolfe died at his home at Waco, Tex., at 10:30 p. m., July 3, after an illness of about a year. Mr. Wolfe had not been out for a month preceding his death, and had been unable to re- ceive visitors since the Saturday before. Tom Wolfe, as he was generally known, was born in Birmingham, Eng- land, September 19, 1875, and was reared in India, where he attended school. In 1892 he came with his par- ents to Waco from Bombay. At the death of his father, James Wolfe, he took charge of the florists' business which he had established, which was later incorporated under the name of Wolfe the Florist. The range of green- houses on South Third street gradually grew, and the firm became one of the largest in the state. In the organization of the Texa^ State Florists' Association, Mr. Wolfe was one of the most active workers. He was elected president of the associa- tion at its second convention. He was a life member of the S. A. F. and a di- rector of the Florists' Telegraph De- livery Association. When the Spanish-American war broke out, Mr. Wolfe enlisted in the Second Texas Eegiment, becoming a quartermaster-sergeant. He was a Mason, belonging to Hella Temple Shrine, Dallas. He was also a Knight Templar, past exalted ruler of Waco lodge of Elks, a Knight of Pythias, a Rotarian and a member of the Lion's Club. Mr. Wolfe is survived by his wife and two sons, Tom Wolfe, Jr., and George Wolfe; a brother, Fred C. Wolfe, and two sisters, Mrs. Annie Wolfe Brigance and Mrs. E. C. Robinson, all of Waco. The funeral was held Saturday after- noon, July 5, at St. Paul's Episcopal church. Interment was at Oakwood. At the services were present a considerable number of florists. William W. Tattle. William W. Tattle, one of the largest growers of peonies in Canada, died at his home, at Toronto, Ont., last week. For years he had supplied seedsmen and florists from the Atlantic to the Pacific with peonies, growing between 700 and 800 different varieties. Over 20,000 per year were distributed through Canada and even up into the Yukon territory. Mr. Tattle was in his eighty-first year, having been born in Toronto February 21, 1839. When 26 years old, he took charge of Victoria park, at Niagara Falls, Ont. This position he held for three years, when he returned to Toronto to take up the occupation of growing peonies. He located on Forest Hill road, and had been at the same address since that time. Until eight years ago he man- aged the growing himself, but of late his sons, Harry and Albert, have been the active managers of the business. For a number of years Mr. Tattle had extensive displays at the exhibitions. Of late, however, he had not exhibited the peonies to the same extent. He was buried June 30. H. G. Dillemuth and J. J. Higgins represented the Gar- deners' and Florists' Association and the Retail Florists' Club, of Toronto, respectively, at the funeral. J. J. H. Joseph Beavls. Joseph Beavis, head of the rose-grow- ing firm of Joseph Beavis & Son, at Germantown, Philadelphia, died July 7. Mr. Beavis had been connected with the growing of plants and flowers for the Philadelphia market for nearly half a century. He has always been success- ful in the cultivation of roses, scoring his greatest triumph at Christmas last year. Mrs. Charles L. Seybold. Following a few days' illness, Mrs. Charles L. Seybold, aged 49, wife of Park Supervisor Seybold, died at her home at Wilkes-Barre, Pa., at 11 p. m. July 5, of valvular heart trouble super- induced by the intense heat which pre- ceded a heavy thunder storm. Before marriage she was Emma Estelle Sei- bold, of Baltimore, Md., and was a sec- ond cousin of her husband. Her fine character and kindly disposition won the friendship of many throughout the trade, who will receive the news of her death sorrowfully. Mrs. Seybold was of an extremely sympathetic nature and had grieved over the recent deaths of a nephew, Lieut.

E. H. M.— 111. The asters are affected with black, or dry, stem-rot. This disease causes much trouble for aster growers. It attacks the plants at all seasons, but it is gen- erally worse after a spell of wet weather followed by hot, dry weather. The plants set out in the field early in the season seem to suffer more than the stock planted later. Those who have given this trouble considerable thought have found that plants from seed sown late and transplanted from the seed flats to the open ground generally go through the season without suffering much from the disease. Perhaps the prin- cipal cause of the disease is growing aster plants on the same land two or three years in succession. The ttrst year the plants will do finely; the second Thomas J. Wolfe. was killed in France, his grandmother and a sister. She is survived by her husband, two brothers and one sister. The body was removed to Baltimore, July 9, where she was buried in the family lot in Greenmount cemetery, with relatives and friends from Baltimore and Washington in attendance. a considerable number of them will be lost from this disease, and after the sec- ond year it is folly to plant asters on the same land again, because a big majority of the plants will die out from disease. When once a plant is affected, there is no remedy; the only thing to do is to pull it up and burn it. M. P. 18 The Florists^ Review Jolt 10, 1919. ff Establiabed. 1897, by Q. L.

After tenipo?ary flurries caused by the gluts ij/vapous localities, prices are establish^ on a firmer basis than has been customary for summer. Practically all the bulbs which can be imported under the quarantine will be in small supply this season, whether they come from France, Holland or Ja- pan. If Premier makes good the promise of producing two blooms to one of Rus- sell and also proves to be a good shipper, it will be the most largely grown rose in America within the next two or three years. Shortage or adequate supply of skilled greenhouse help depends, like the absence or abundance of stock on the market, on far-sighted anticipation of requirements. Now is the time to provide for the needs of coming years. The cost of immortelles in France is four times what it was before the war. Mosit of the importers are buying with care, as they feel there will be a limited demand at the selling prices that will be necessary next season. Fewer failures occurred in June, ac- cording to the reviews of Dun and Brad- street, than in any previous month on record. Not since 1882 has there been a half year as free of business casualties as the six months just ended. Numerous novelties are in course of preparation for early dissemination, and most of them will require considerable advertising to make them go, attention having been bn other things for the last year or two. An unknown novelty does not sell. It has interested many members of the trade that Adolph Farenwald is going in stronger on Russell for next season, facing the competition of Premier, heavily bought by other growers for his market. Philadelphia growers did not plunge on Russell when it came out, but it gained steadily in their opinion until this season, when most of them thought it necessary to make space for Premier. What Mr. Farenwald does always commands at- tention, and that he should still be buying Russell is a matter for comment. The Blue Ridge Decorative Evergreen Association is a new organization of the shippers of greens from the Blue Ridge mountains, formed for thfi improvement of conditions in that trade. Four bulletins are to be issued each year by the American Peony Society, in- stead of two as heretofore.

For this purpose address E. A. Fet- ters, 17 East Adams avenue, Detroit, Mich. LOOK 'EM OVER. It has been said, and the only suc- cessful contradiction had to do with a distiller who sent a horseshoe to an opening, that nobody ever saw flowers on a bar. But you probably will see flowers soon in many a barroom — con- verted into a flower store. Saloons have occupied some of the best locations in the towns that were wet up to July 1. In most cases they have leases which will become the sub- ject of deals during the next few months. It would be as well to look over the likely places; there may be the chance to get hold of something good on terms that will make a move worth while, espe- cially for the florist who wants to branch out. PRICES NOT COMING DOWN. There is said to be a general disposi- tion in the trade to hold off on all kinds of buying. The would-be sellers aver that the trade is holding back in the hope of lower prices later on. It is just possible, however, that the delay in placing orders against next season's needs is only because this is the begin- ning of the vacation season, that and the natural inclination to put off until tomorrow what apparently need not be done today. There is, no doubt, the feel- ing that now the war is over, merchan- dise should be steadily more plentiful. But all the indications point to a short supply next season, of everything flo- rists use, from coal to toothpicks. It is the labor situation which cofitrols both the supply and the price. Labor has not been readjusted after the war, as nearly all of us expected it would be. Skilled labor in nearly all lines still is scarce; wages are high and either still advancing or stationary, certainly not. declining. Merchandise will not be plen- tiful until the workers' thoughts are switched from how to push up the pay to how to push up the output and hold the jobs; nor will prices fall. We can not look for lower prices until the cost of living comes down and the cost of living can not come down until wages do. So there you are; you might as well buy what you know you will need and make sure of getting it. WHY IS A BARGAIN? In a bargain/ you ge^ something of value by paying less than it is really worth. There is usually a reason for it. Ifeually the seller knows he is giving a bargain just as well as the buyer. And the seller doesn't offer a bargain unless he has a good object — for himself — in so doing. Low prices do not always indicate a bargain. Bargains are exceptional. Low prices are not. Most of the time when you pay a low price for stock you buy a low grade of goods. When you don't, you get a bargain. But bar- gains are few, and the seller will usually state his reason for giving one. OPTIMISM IN OUTLOOK. Substantial support for florists who look upon the coming business year with optimism is given in the monthly report of tne federal reserve board. Prospects for a successful and pros- perous year, with a large output of goods and almost unprecedented financial re- turns, both to manufacturers, agricul- turists and laborers, seem sure, in the opinion of the board. Prices continued to rise throughout June, and enormously heavy demand for goods for export had rendered products in many lines scarce. Wheat, corn, cot- ton, tobacco and Pacific coast crops will be harvested in record quantities. Manufacturing likewise took a strong upward turn during June. Building shows continuation of the revival noted in previous months. THINK IT OVER. It is not where a paper is printed, but where it is read, that determines its value to advertisers. Like this: The water lily ad in The Review has proven very satisfactory. Have shipped roots to more than a dozen states because of it. — W. I. Brod- flsh. West Barnstable, Mass., July 1, 1919. If you hear a man complain of the cost of advertising you can be pretty certain he spends a good bit of money elsewhere than in The Review. CHICAGO. The Market. The Fourth of July is one holiday that does florists absolutely no good. The majority of the wholesale houses in this market felt it necessary to be open at least half a day on the Fourth, and most of them were open all day July 5, al- though the day generally was observed as a holiday in other lines of business and some of the wholesalers released a part of their forces. Somewhat to their surprise, business done July 4 and July 5 was excellent, amounting to a good day's sales for any time during the sum- mer and keeping the reduced forces on the jump. The present week has opened well. The high heat has subsided and the demand for flowers, as well as the quality of the stock, at once showed im- provement. So far as demand goes, it was never better at this time of year. There is slight change as regards the supply of stock, and such change as is noted is all in the direction of approach- ing normal summer conditions. The sup- ply of flowers steadily goes down und IK!*! it.i|il>w.T.K. VW».\T'.^7 ■--. July 10, 1919.

WE ARE CLOSED ALL DAY SUNDAY the variety narrows each day. Eoses grown specially for the summer crop constitute the principal stock today, Kussell and Columbia leading. There still are some carnations, but not many good ones, and the supply decreases each day, as the growers get around to refilling the benches. There still are some June peonies, but most of the deal- ers are out and the market soon will be in tlio good hands of one grower. There is a steady increase in the supply of gladioli, the local outdoor crop having come to reinforce the southern outdoor i'roj> and the local indoor crop. Prices have fallen. Last winter there were numerous expressions of anxiety over the prospect for a glut of indoor gla- dioli, the belief being held that large numbers of growers had planted empty houses with this catch crop. What be- came of them? At no time has there been anything approaching an oversup- ]dy of indoor glads; indeed, most of the time it has been impossible to fill all the orders for them and the prices were high, sometimes as high as $20 per hun- dred for special varieties like Pendle- ton and Schwaben, and seldom lower than $12 to $16 per hundred for the com- moner kinds. Now the anxiety is on the score of the large supply of outdoor flowers expected during the next two months. Thus far they are selling well. The general run of garden flowers is passing off the market, but gypsophila has come in large quantities and is serv- ing its purpose. There are a few sweet peas. Yellow daisies are hard to find, the market practically being limited to the field variety and to Shastas. Colored water lilies are in request for conven- tional summer window displays. There are large quantities of candytuft and feverfew, also considerable supplies of coreopsis and gaillardia. Quantities of candidum lilies held in cold storage have been cleaned up. Orchids continue to be the principal shortage; there are not enough good cat- tleyas for even the present light de- mand. Valley is not in large supply, but the demand has dwindled. Moderate supplies of giganteums sufiice for the de- mand. Green goods of all kinds are equal to all requirements. At Randall's. A. L. Randall and F. M. Johnson were in New York last week, although they neither went nor returned together. "I came back," said Mr. Johnson, "more certain than ever that any florist makes a mistake if he does not prepare at once for a big season. There is sure to be a wonderful opportunity, but to take ad- vantage of it preparation is necessary; the goods must be bought. There is, at the factories, the greatest demand ever known and merchandise already is scarce and many items are unobtainable for early delivery. There is no chance for lower prices; indeed, prices are go- ing up every day. It is time to buy, time to buy heavily. Arthur M. Anderson returned this week from a three months' trip to Eng- land, France and Italy on a buying trip for the Randall Co. George Haas has rejoined the Randall forces after having been overseas a year. He was six months in Germany. Meetings, et Cetera. Secretary Otto H.

Co., is taking charge of all these departments. Mr. Michelsen's View. Probably there is nothing at present engaging so much attention as the pros- pects for business and prices next sea- son. As C. J. Michelsen is recoghized as having shown exceptional foresight in other seasons, his view of the coming one will be of special interest now. "The only thing we had last season which can not be reckoned on for next season," says Mr. Michelsen, "is the flu; the epidemic was a great factor in the business last autumn, but we all hope there never will be another like it. As an offset we shall have, first of all, the resumption of social activities; sec- ond, the benefit of the many cooperative advertising campaigns, accelerating the natural increase in the number of flower buyers, and third, the return of great numbers of young men who were in France a year ago. . These things will go far, if they do not wholly replace the decrease in the call for funeral flowers. There are all the other factors, includ- ing general business activity, high wages and the disposition to spend money for the good things of life, to insure florists another big season." "There is another point some florists have not considered," continued Mr, Michelsen. "The increased call for fu- neral work last season was first felt in the lower grades of flowers — it affected the market from the bottom up — the best grades being the last and the least benefited. It will be just the opposite when the call is for flowers for the live ones, of the social sets." O €»• t ^Chicaqp III. T^2'^\e\s \x\ S\xpp\\«.s 30 EAST RANDOLPH STREET Asked as to the effect of increased production, Mr. Michelsen said: "The increase will be negligible. In the first place, in this section only a small per- centage of the glass was out of produc- tion last season. The carnation growers who went into lettuce will stay there, for the most part, and the deterioration of the older places is steadily reducing their producing capacity; the new con- struction in this vicinity this season does not more than offset the extra rapid deterioration in the last year because of the omission of the usual maintenance work." Rutenschroer's Betum. Henry Eutenschroer, in the employ of Anna Grace Sawyer, the "Pansy Flo- rist," prior to his entry into the war, has been invalided back to the United States and is at a debarkation hospital at Camp Stuart, near Newport News, Va. Mr. Butenschroer is improving rapidly and hopes to be back in Chicago shortly. He was with Battery B, 342nd Heavy Artillery, and was in action at Thiancourt last September. His regiment was en- gaged in long-range firing into Metz. While in action, Mr. Eutenschroer had his shoulder broken by the recoil from one of the heavy guns. Mr. Eutenschroer had an opportunity only once while in service to employ his skill in handling flowers. On Me- morial day he was asked to make a floral design and, having available only the flowers of the fields, he executed a most artistic piece, using quantities of daisies. He took a great deal of pride and pleasure in the work, especially after his arduous tasks at the front. He was highly complimented on the result of his effort. The Weather in June. The asters have been burning up. The June rainfall was only half an inch less than normal, but the 3.16 inches practi- cally all fell in the first half of the July 10, 1919.

Any grower who has an idea that the government allowance of four per cent per annum for depreciation is too little for well maintained greenhouses should take a look at the range of A. H. Bud- long. There he will see houses 25 years old which need only a coat of paint this summer to look to last another decade. ^Illlllllllllllllllllllllilllllllllllllllllllllllllllllilllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllilll^ I WHOLESALE FLORISTS 164 North Wabash Avenue, CHICAGO = FiiniiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiimiiiiiT; It is well known that Bassett & Wash- burn rely principally on shipping trade and it therefore will interest many to note that C.

The demand at the various wholesale markets kept up fairly well 'last week, as there were still a number of weddings and a great deal of funeral work, which kept the retailers busy. But from now on little business is expected outside of funeral work and the majority of florists have started house-cleaning. The season just closed, judging from reports of some of the leading members of the trade, was the best in many years and the prospects are good for the coming season. The wholesale market is greatly over- crowded with gladiolus spikes, as nearly every consignor to this market seems to have planted gladioli heavily this year. All varieties are in good supply, but the price in big lots has been cut to $20 per thousand and only the extra fancy stock brings a good price, which stops at 8 cents. While the demand is heavy, it is not sufficient to consume the daily supply. Roses sadly feel the effects of the hot weather and the extra fancy grades are extremely scarce.

The Glorious Fourth, virtually a three days' holiday, had a decided effect on the cut flower market. People left town, that is the story. Shipping and local orders were reduced or omitted and there was a general easing of the demand for flowers. The week opened well. Monday and Tuesday were good days. After that things grew steadily worse until busi- ness almost ceased. The feature of the supply was the increase in the stock of gladioli. From the fields they are fine and plentiful. They were selling freely until the national holiday upset busi- ness, when they accumulated in the wholesale houses. This trouble was ag- gravated by the intense heat that brought them on too fast. Gladioli must be cut and shipped in bud in order that bruising be avoided in shipping, ElERGER BROS.

Judgment in cutting and care in pack- ing gladioli are of paramount impor- tance. The leading varieties today are America, Mrs. Francis King, Halley, Schwaben and Pink Beauty. Mrs. Francis King, while not so striking a color as Brenchleyensis, has largely re- placed that one-time favorite variety be- cause of the larger flowers. There are a number of other good sorts that can be had at times in smaller numbers. Next to the heavy su])ply of gladioli, the most interesting thing about the market is the fancy price of fine flowers as compared with flowers of ordinary de- gree. Cattleyas, for example, are quot- ed at $1 to $1.25 each; $1.50 asked for extra select. Beauties, 25 to 50 cents each. Premier, Columbia and Russell, 15 to 25 cents, while ordinary flowers can be had for low prices, excepting Double White Killarney and Victory roses, which bring good money. The explanation is simple. There are few good flowers. Those with orders for high-grade stock know how few. Some Interesting Orders. With the temperature at 101 degrees, Fahrenheit, on the street, and every- body out of town, business seemed out of the question. Yet there was one place where large orders were being filled, on the morning of July 5, that are of national interest. The facts are sad, yet inspiring. A dear old lady took cold on a lecturing trip, and after a brief illness died of pneumonia at her home in Moylan, near Philadelphia. The lady was Dr. Anna Howard Shaw, leader of the woman 's suffrage movement in this country. Every state in the Union where the woman suffrage party is or- ganized sent a tribute of respectful ad- miration to their leader. These tributes all took the form of flowers. Some were baskets, some wreaths, some sprays. All were beautiful. The most striking gift of all came from the national council of the Woman's Suffrage Association. It was a blanket of Ward roses. The selection had a double significance. Yellow is the color of the woman's suf- rage party and dear little Mrs. Aaron Ward was Mrs. Shaw 's favorite rose. The order was received by Charles Bax- ter, of Pennock Bros. Twenty-three hundred Wards and a few Sunbursts were used in making the blanket. Through the courtesy of A. B. Cartledge, head of the firm of Pennock Bros., the blanket was seen just before it was sent out to Moylan. The richness of the deep orange yellow of the Ward roses was en- hanced by the delicacy of the green on W^' July 10, 1919.

Phil. BOSTON. The Market. July is proving true to its traditions, and the month of torridity is proving, as usual, the slimmest of the year in flower sales. Boston experienced its second severe heat wave of the season July 3 to 5, when temperatures of 100 and 101 degrees were officially recorded. It was fortunate that the excessive heat came when business was largely sus- pended, so that the toll of suffering, deaths and prostrations was light. Cut flower business, which was light before the warm wave arrived, dwindled to al- most nothing. Prices are unquotable, as there was little buying, and prices were made by the purchaser and not by the seller. Many flowers were almost useless when unpacked, and sweet peas simply withered away when exposed for sale at the wholesale markets. Thunder storms July 6 and some much needed rain brought relief, and Julv 7 temperatures were more nearly normal. Cut flower arrivals are comparatively small. Of roses there are a good man'v medium shipments, mostly short- stemmed stock, but carnations are few and poor in quality, the bulk of the LACE PAPER BOUQUET HOLDERS Are as inucli in vogae today as they were the first day you entered the florists' business.

Sweet peas, owing to the intense heat, are arriving short- stemmed, but they ])rove one of the best sellers at present. A fair number of gladioli are coming in, mostly from outdoors, some nice ])rimulinus being in- cluded. About all other flowers are an- nuals or herbaceous perennials. Sales of greenery are small and of i)ot plants almost nil. Sweet Pea Exhibition. It was unfortunate that tlie date of the annual sweet pea show of the Massa- chusetts Horticultural Society should have fallen on the day after the Fourth and during the worst heat wave we have suffered since 1911. In so far as sweet peas were concerned, the show title was a misnomer, as only one exhibitor of these came forward, viz., W. G. Taylor, Newport, R. I., who sliowcd splendid flowers.

Other sweet pea exhibitors who were expected failed to put in an appearance, their flowers being probably scorched by the heat wave.

Local carnation specialists are much exercised over the attacks of red spider on their plants in the fields. This is a hard pest to combat outdoors. The heat and drought have favored it and prevented growers getting their plants in as early as they would have liked. Once under glass, pressure of water from the hose, well directed, will help to alle- viate the trouble. Automobiles will leave the corner of Massachusetts avenue and Common- wealth avenue at noon July 12 with members of the Boston Florists' Asso- ciation and their friends for the excur- sion to be held at Wardhurst, Lynnfield.

J. M. Gleason, for many years with him in the Schlegel & Fottler Co., and also a member of the firm of the T. J. Grey Co., died six years ago. The Gardeners' and Florists* Club's annual picnic at Cunningham park, East Milton, is being eagerly looked for- ward to. There are no less than twenty- seven sporting events, and these include baseball games for men, ladies and boys, a football game, a tug of war and an obstacle race. In case of rain there is abundant shelter in the gymnasium on the grounds. E. & J. Farquhar & Co. invite those interested in hardy lilies to see their field of Lilium regale (myriophyllum) at their Eoslindale nurseries. The plants, of which there are several acres, will be in fine bloom about the end of the present week. The efforts of the board of directors of the Massachusetts Horticultural So- ciety to eliminate largely the smaller shows of the society and limit them to three per y*ar meet with little favor among the army of cultivators, who are greatly interested in the free summer shows. A wealthy lady, keenly inter- ested in horticulture, has offered $1,000 to help carry out the summer shows in 1920, and it is hoped that this, added to the public sentiment favoring their con- tinuance, will force a change of heart among the directors. The wholesale flower markets and commission houses close at noon on Sat- urdays during July and August, as in former years. It would be probably just as well if the wholesale markets could close at 1 o'clock during these two months, as all necessary business could easily be transacted by that time. W. N. C. NEW YORK. Tbe Market. With the passing of June the market is settling down to the usual summer condition, and the arrangement of vaca- tions is an all-absorbing topic. For a few days recently the common field daisy held a prominent place in the mar- ket, or at least that section of it de- voted to the sale of green goods and field flowers. Some of the dealers got as high as $2 per hundred for their stock, disposal of which was largely to saloons, the daisy being the floral em- blem of the wets, to whom they were in turn distributed. Needless to say, one saw many wets upon our streets. Peace day did not mean anything to the florists. Few, if any, banquets were held, and public rejoicing was not con- spicuous. Fourth of July business was not really as good as usual, the weather being hot- ter on that day and the previous day than has been experienced for many years. Everybody that could leave the city did so, and full advantage was taken of the opportunity to make a 3-day holiday. The outdoor stock coming in shows the effect 0% continuous dry weather, but copious thunder showers Sunday, July 6, freshened things considerably.

Domoto 3ros. are receiving some good cypress and box tfrees, and are filling up their stock of other greens, which have been none too plentiful this year. Enomoto & Co. are busy at the Eed- wood City nurseries just now with new plants.' The management reports that the weather conditions are producing an exceptionally fine crop of asters, which they expect to liave on the market within a few weeks. Mrs. Copeland, of the Flower Shop, on Sutter street above Grant avenue, states tliat trade is keeping up well in spite of the season and the inconven- ience of the telephone strike. She con- tracted for a considerable amount of work for the Washington Dodge funeral. The Lacy Co., at Fruitvale, Cal., which specializes in stocks, snapdragon, gladioli and Irish Elegance roses, ex- pects to have some exceptionally good late gladiolus blooms this season. An attractive addition to Joseph's shop, at 235 Grant avenue, is a new aviary, built to house a number of choice singing canaries. The giant cage, measuring about 6x8 feet, is built in the form of a Japanese pagoda, the color scheme being worked out in exposition greciii. The oriental atmos- phere is further carried out by the use of parasols, bronze storks, dwarf cy- press shrubs and other plants and flow- ers typical of the island of Nippon. Manuel Gotelli, one of the members of Joseph's staff, is on a two weeks' va- cation. B. M. Joseph took a motor trip to Monterey, Cal., over July 4. V. L. Podesta, of Podesta & Baldocchi, will leave July 18 for his annual outing. The stand of the MacRorie-McLaren Co., in the Palace hotel, cleaned up on all available stock on the last days of the reign of King Alcohol. The numer- ous dinner parties held in the hotel created a demand for centerpieces simi- lar to that of New Year's eve.

Preparations for the Detroit conven- tion, August 19 to 21, are approaching completion. Everybody concerned is more than satisfied with the prospects for a successful gathering, and a bumper attendance is already assured. The trade exhibition promises par- ticularly well. Most of the exhibition space has been reserved, and it is more than likely that the balance will be disposed of long ahead of the conven- tion. Secretary Young will be in De- troit about July 20, and will remain there until the close of the proceedings.

It is reported that the working class has been far more liberal in flower ex- penditures than ever before and that few weddings have talien place without at least corsages. Advertising, though it has not had its deserved swing, has been conducted on a sufficient scale to impress on every mind that our products are not entirely a luxury, but something that the mind and intelligence desire as a necessity. So June closes a year of unprecedented business. July 1 there was a decided decrease in demand for all kinds of stock. About the only thing done has been funeral work.

NORDWALL Sunbursts and Eussells are favorites on account of their keeping quality. Hearsts and Double Killarneys are also good. Carnations have somewhat re- covered in quality, apparently due to attention given them by the growers, who had neglected them during bedding stock season. Indoor gladioli are about over, although a few are brought in daily. Sweet peas have seen better days. Outdoor peas are now expected, but it is supposed that there will be few of them, because red spider has de- veloped during the hot, dry season they have gone through. F. P. A. NEWARK, N. J.

President, B. 0. Dungan, Philadelphia, Pa.; Becretary-treasurer, C. B, Kendel, CleTeland, O. Peas will be peas again this seaaon. The California growers are not figur- ing on selling this year's crops for less than it cost to produce. W. W. Barnard was born July 4, 1856. His sixty-third anniversary was quietly celebrated at his home in a Chicago sub- urb. Advices from Lompoc, Cal., say of mus- tard seed : ' ' The normal yield of mus- tard in the Lompoc valley is 30,000 bags and the outlook at present is that the 1919 crop will exceed 50,000 bags, or 20,000 more than the average crop has been. Much of this crop has been con- tracted to sell at good prices — 7 cents per pound and better. The market is ap- parently strong and the indications are that the farmers who have not contracted their mustard seed will receive good prices also. ' ' COMMITTEE ON SEEDS. The following gentlemen have been appointed by the president of the New York Produce Exchange as members of the committee on seeds: William Jacot, chairman; Marshall H. Duryea, Ernst Wehnke, O. W. F. Randolph and Charles Wimmer. A BRITISH VIEW. "Report* from the U. S. A. indicatu that the abnormal demand for seeds of food plants caused by the war is now slackening, and as many firms have overstocked, a number of articles will probably be offered at considerably re- duced rates, especially as the recent deputation to Europe does not report any extraordinary buying from that .quarter," says the Horticultural Ad- vertiser (British). "The inquiry into seed conditions has done good in draw- ing attention to the fact that, though Hamburg was formerly the most impor- tant center of the seed trade in Europe, the greater part of the seed sold was not of German origin. A large part of the seed grown for foreign trade by France and Russia, and even a considerable quantity of British seed, passed through German hands. Now, however, it is hoped that the seed trade in these coun- tries will get together and trade direct. In the future careful watch should be kept for attempts to divert the seed trade and reestablish conditions which jirevailed before the war." ITEMS OF PRODUCTION COST. To assist sugar-beet growers in de- termining the cost of production, spe- cialists of the United States Department of Agriculture have made a study of four of the most important sugar-beet areas in the United States. The de- partment has publish£/I four bulletins, one on each of the four areas studied, giving in detail the results of the in- vestigations. While the requirements of the beet crop in terms of value that prevailed through 1915 and 1916 are dealt with in the recent publication, the authors state that when such requirements are known QUALITY SEED FOR THE Market Gardeners of t •>'► SPINACH SEED, All Varieties 100 lbs. or more . . 30c per lb.

The cost data, therefore, are valuable for purposes of comparison. / In general, the bulletin says, as acre- age increases, acre cost decreases, while as yield increases acre cost increases, although cost per ton decreases. Labor was the principal cost item, amounting to fifty per cent of the total cost of production, while the use of the land amounted to thirty-five per cent. The more important factors which enter into the cost of production are labor, interest on land or rental, seed, water, taxes and insurance. While these fac- tors expressed in terms of money values are variable, such items as hours of man labor, hours of horse labor, pounds of seed, hours of use of equipment, and amount of fertilizers required do not fluctuate appreciably.

A buyer of seed who sows it knowing that it is inferior to the quality he has bargained for will not be permitted by the courts to recover damages based on the excess of the value of the crop which would probably have been grown had the seed been of the proper kind, above the value of the crop actually grown. This reasonable rule of law is recog- nized by the Minnesota Supreme court in the recent case of Wavra vs. Karr, 172 Northwestern Reporter, 118. There are numerous court decisions upholding a seed buyer's right to re- cover damages measured according to the above stated standard, where he has innocently relied upon a misrepresen- tation by the seller concerning the va- riety or germinating quality of seed delivered. And where seed is found on delivery to be of inferior character there can be no doubt that, as a general rule, the buyer has a vaUd claim for damages based on a difference in values of the goods bargained for and those de- C.

If I bargain for pansy seed and knowingly receive and plant pumpkin seed, I shall not be heard by the courts because I reap what I have sown. When wheat seed was delivered to plaintiff by defendant's agent he no- ticed that it contained a large percent- age of foul and noxious seeds, and that many of the wheat kernels were so shriveled and dried up as to be worth- less for seeding purposes. He com- plained that it was "almost a shame to use that seed on any man's land," yet, without effort to remove the foul seed or the shrunken kernels, he sowed the seed as delivered. Minnesota Court's Ruling. Under these circumstances the Minne- sota Supreme court said: "It is well settled law, in this state and elsewhere, that a party who is sub- jected or exposed to injury from a breach of contract is under legal duty and obligation to minimize and lessen his loss, and he can recover only such damages as he could not with reasonable diligence and good faith have prevent- ed. » * « What must be done in this respect will depend upon the facts of the particular case. The rule exacts nothing unfair or unreasonable. In the case at bar, plaintiff was confronted with the fact that defendant's agent was not delivering seed of good quality, that the contract was not being com- plied with. In that situation he would have been justified in procuring seed elsewhere, or, if not so procurable, then in rejecting the seed tendered by the agent altogether. But he elected to accept the seed with full knowledge of its poor quality and to attempt to raise a crop therefrom. His conduct was the reverse of what the law required of him, Snapdragons have proved to be the greatest money-makers of any greenhouse plants.

Peterson, has been oalled for and published in booklet form. It originally was one of a series of talks to youths by the Chicago nurseryman, MEEHANS DIVIDE BUSINESS. The business of Thomas Meehau & Sons, Germantown, Philadelphia, Pa., was divided July 1, when the partner- ship, consisting of S. Mendelson Meehan and P. Franklin Meehan, was dissolved. The nursery business will be continued under the old name by S. Mendelson Meehan. The landscape gardening de- partment of the firm will be carried on by J. Franklin Meehan, who will operate it under his own name. EVERGREENS AND THEIR USES. [From an address on "The Growing and Prep- aration of Evergreenx for Ijandscape Planting," delivered by CliarWs L. Seybold, of Wilkes-Barre, Pa., at the convention of the American Associa- tion of Nurserymen at Chicago, June 26.] All conifers prefer a well-drained, loamy soil that is moderately rich, but most of them prefer a light soil that is open and porous. If the more delicate kinds cannot be given such soil, don't plant them. In the north and in ex- jjosed positions we often find compara- tively hardy kinds unable to withstand the winter, and on account of the grow- ing season being shorter, the growth (Iocs not ripen sufficiently to pull them through. The general public seems to be afraid to order evergreens on account of the large percentage of losses. Some varie- ties, especially pines, cedars, some spruces, cypresses -and others, are hard to transplant in large sizes, but this difficulty can be overcome by employing stock that has been root-pruned in the nurseries. There are many kinds of smaller coniferous shrubs and plants that should be grown in greater quantities, some of whicli liave become extremely scarce, such as tlic upright Taxus baccata erecta, T. fastigiata, or ^Florence court yew; T. fructu-luteo, a handsome, golden-fruited variety; T. canadensis variegata, and T. baccata variegata. There are many thujas, biotas and thu- .jopsis of exceptional merit. Yuccas, Japanese holly, mahonias and American- grown holly, among others, work in well at the front of coniferous borders. Hol- lies should be transplanted in early fall with a ball of earth. They will make fresh roots before winter, and will start out strongly in spring with new fibrous roots. The junipers show many habits, pros- trate, upright, globe, dwarf, compact, white, golden and variegated. They are now extensively used in rock and Japan- ese gardens and in\ well-drained conifer- ous borders, with Alpine forest heath, evergreen perennials and grasses to fill in. Proper Period of Planting. As to the proper period of planting, I have, under certain conditions, fre- quently advocated early fall planting with excellent results, and where new growth was well ripened I have given early fall planting the preference. In ease of extreme dryness, a thor- ough watering or puddling should not be overlooked. This will start the plant at once into renewed root action, and it will become well established before winter sets in. When the ground is slightly frozen, a mulch of litter, leaf- mold, evergreen boughs or straw wrap- pings will protect fine specimens against dry winds and severe cold. Buxus sempervirens used in border- ing beds is quite hardy when thoroughly established, but it must be protected from the wind and sun for two winter seasons after planting. Evergreen privets, Ligustrum lucidum and L. ja- ponicum, thrive well under similar con- ditions. These two, however, are not Peonies and Iris Send us your name now for our new Catalogue. PETERSON NURSERY 30 N. U Salle St. CHICAGO, ILL so hardy as the box and euonymus. The American holly, Ilex opaca, is the only true and reliable holly. When trans- planted they should be severely pruned; this is generally overlooked. Rhododendron beds bordered with Pieris alba floribunda, known also as Andromeda floribunda, should be used and grown more extensively. This is a valuable plant for bordering purposes. Another variety is P. japonica. The hardy daphnes, yuccas, Euonymus radi- cans, green and variegated; hardy dwarf azaleas, with their deep green foliage and bright flowers, and kalmias are good border plants for rhododendron and small evergreen beds. Planting for Windbreaks. Planting for windbreaks should be advocated more than it is. In colonial times it received more attention than it does now. Picea alba, P. excelsa, Nor- way spruce and hemlock should be used more for this purpose; even cypress, cedars and Siberian arbor-vitaes lend themselves to windbreaks, screens and hedges.

There has been, however, some complaint that many plants would have to be replaced several times a season to keep ithem looking presentable. Then again, the expense of too frequent replanting at hotels and at private homes has caused many to discard them altogether. This should not be. The remedy is readily found in the proper selection. Let us try small boxes containing dwarf conifers and hardy ivies. These could be designed so as to enable the owner to remove them from the open to indoors, on the order of the Japanese style. Thousands of such boxes can be sold by enterpris- ing firms, and would help to popularize coniferous plants. To make farmsteads more attractive is another object. The busy farmer, of course, does not care for a formal gar- den and trimmed hedges, but he wants plain and sensible ornamentation, con- sisting of large-growing trees, and ever- greens for shade and windbreaks. He may plant hedges that do not require any trimming, such as hemlock, Siberian and American arbor-vitses, Japanese barberry, Spiraea Van Houttei, mock orange, Tartarian honeysuckle, Bosa rugosa or lilacs. Promising Varieties. Korean hardy azaleas (rhod- / azaleas) at the Arnold Arboretum are ' full of promise for the nurseryman, es- pecially on account of their great hardi- ness; the varieties Schlippenbachii and poukhanense (Bhodazalea poukhanense) are especially recommended.

The Japanese fir is an excellent plant for the decoration of our American parks and gardens, especially Abies brachyphylla and Abies homolepis. The Japanese yew, Taxus cuspidata, has proved the hardiest of the class; it is certainly the most valuable, being ex- ceedingly decorative; it stood up even better than the English yew, Taxus baccata, and the native Taxus canaden- sis, both of which were badly browned and damaged during the winter of 1917-18. Not nearly enough seedlings are raised, especially of such things as firs, spruces, pines and the native broad- leaved rhododendrons; all of these come true from seeds. In preparing a border for a group, or for lining out a block of evergreens, it is essential to plow or spade deep, or as deep as possible. Cloggy, heavy soil should be thoroughly worked before plants are set. The ideal soil is a rich, sandy loam, not too strong in animal fertilizers or in chemicals. Such a soil carries a higher temperature, is naturally well drained, and moisture and air penetrate it more readily and enter deeper. Seeds will germinate more quickly and become stronger^ -and cultivating is easier, in such soil. *"* BAI.TIMOBE. . ' Tbe Market. For the first week in July, the market certainly held its own. The demand, especially for funeral work, kept up well and the prices were corrwpondingly good. Boses are about the best jitock on the market and I have seldom seen them as good so late in the season. There is a fair ^^o^tyy also, of miscellaneous stock f or th|B season. Altogether, the market is in. a nost satisfactory state. The next meetili^'''«t the Florists' aub will be held My 14, in Eoyal Ar- canum hall. This i^ }^!|riy to be one of the largest meetings, we elub has ever held. President E. ^4- Vincent and W. F.

There will be delegations from the Philadelphia and Washington clubs. Before the meeting there will be a ban- quet at the Hotel Bennet, and refresh* ments will be served during the meeting at the hall. Every florist in and around the city, whether a member of the club or not, is expected to be at this meeting and banquet. By getting in touch with Isaac H. Moss, at Govans, or with W. F. Ekas, care of Leo Niessen Co., 5 to 7 West Center street, other particulars may be learned.

The city has been in the throes of a street-car strike for the last two weeks, and the effect on business has been quite noticeable. Telephone business greatly increased, and helped to keep trade up to last year's figures. There is a con- tinued demand for funeral designs. Varioos Notes. Those planning attendance at the Canadian Horticultural Association 's convention August 12 to 15 are request- ed to make hotel reservations as soon as possible. The headquarters will be the Prince George hotel. If visitors will communicate with H. G. Dillemuth, chairman of the convention committee, reservations will be made. Those re- quiring exhibition space should inform Alex Simpson, 11 Queens park, secre- tary, or J. J. Higgins, superintendent of exhibits, 256 Yonge street, Toronto. All the large downtown stores were closed Saturday, July 5, including the large flower stores. This will be con- tinued throughout July and August. Most of the uptown stores are closing Wednesday afternoons instead of Satur- day. A welcome visitor to Toronto last week was Wm. F. Gude, of Gude Bros. Co., Washington, D.

Greenhoase Heating Subscribers are invited to write the Editor of this Department with regard to any details of greenhouse heating that are not understood. When information is desired regarding the capacity of boil- ers, or the amount of radiation required for a greenhouse, the needed temperatures should be stated in the inquiry, as well as the amount of glass in the side walls, and the dimensions and general arrange- ment of the greenhouses. It is often help- ful, also, to have a sketch showing the location of the houses. YEAR'S COAI. STOCKS SMAUi. Coal buyers who count on the stocks on hand to offset the low production of the mines during the first half of this year are making an error in their cal- culations. Because last winter was so mild, here and there considerable sup- plies remain. Some greenhouse owners are well provided for the beginning of next season. But in general stocks of coal were used up. The total stocks on hand in 1919 were only 30,000,000 tons, as compared with 85,000,000 tons in 1918. In spite of the mild winter, the supply to start 1919 was 55,000,000 tons less than in 1918.^ The stocks on hand are not, therefore, sufficient to compensate for theshoxtage of production, which, government ex- perts figure, is running behind at the rate of 2,775,000 tons per week. The assumption is that, if buying is no heavier than it has been, there will be a rush when cold weather begins which will clean up all the available coal in short order, sending up prices for later production to high figures. Some au- thorities believe that the last-hour scramble will come too late to stimulate production to the extent necessary, and that, even in case of a mild winter, fuel shortage is almost certain to result. i IJOU^EB PIPE IS PSEFEBABLE. Will you kindly tell me how to pipe ,a greenhouse 16x30, with hot water f The house will have a southern ex- jposure. The boiler room will be on a :lower level than the greenhouse. There ;will be sixteen inches of glass in the isides. Will a boiler that is rated at 300 isquare feet of hot water radiation be jsufficient to heat this house, or would a 'rating of 400 square feet be better? The stock to be carried will consist of primulas, oi^erarias, cyclamens and geraniums. I should like to use 1-inch pipe under the benches. Please state ,how much pipe will be needed! i A. J. Z.— N. T. The amount of radiation actually re- quired is only 210 square feet, and if the boiler is faifly well up to its rating it should have atopic reserve power. We would suggest heating the house by running a 2^ -inch flow pipe through the house to the farther end, about two feet below the ridge, giving it a slight fall, say two inches in the length of the greenhouse. For the coils we would prefer to use five l^^-inch, or six 1^4- inch pipes, on each side of the house, but if the lowest point of the returns is well above the top of the boiler 1-inch pipe may be substituted. In either case, we would start the coils at the middle of the farther end of the house and, after running them to the comers, carry ■ aBaHaaDBOBaaDaaBaBDB aBDBDB : K-R-0-E-S-C-H-E-L-L I □ STEAM UNITS OF SUPERIOR FEATURES ' D B a B D B D B O B D B a B a D B a m n a u a No TulM* To Cloan, No Masonry Roquirod Kroesohell 'Water Tube Steam Boiler D For Stoam B Plants n Lotf^s Than ■ 100 0 Horso Powor B D ■i B a '♦ B D KROESCHELL High Pressure Unit 100 to 350 HORSE POWER .|«l KROESCHELL: hiRtic WATER TUBE VATCHTSO ■•■« BOILER.

To heat a greenhouse 32x140 to 60 degrees in zero weather, about 850 square feet of radiation will be re- quired. This is too much to be handled by a 2-inch main, unless high pressure is used, and we would advise the use of a 2%-inch overhead main in each house, although two 2-inch mains on the plates might be used. The use of three coils, each containing three 1%-inch returns, and one 1%-inch return on each side of the bed, as suggested, will supply the needed radiation.

Thus the boiler would be altogether too small in sections where zero weather prevails for a considerable portion of the winter. In Arkansas, however, where we judge the mercury only drops to zero once or twice during the winter and the thermometer gen- erally registers between 10 and 20 de- grees above zero, as a minimum, the boiler described, if it has a grate thirty inches square, .would answer, but it would require careful attention on cold nights and the use of coal would be far from economical. If a boiler is to be purchased, we would advise that it have a capacity of thirty horsepower. Long-service paint costs less in the end because it saves the labor and material coat of repainting.

MILWAUKEE, WIS. The Market. The market has taken on a decided summer aspect. Flowers are plentiful enough, but quality and variety are lacking, strictly a summer time symp- tom. Some excellent roses are coming in from houses planted mainly for summer cuts. This stock is in good demand and the supply is increasing. Carnations are so nearly gone that buyers take them only when necessary. Gladioli are bet- ter now, and help considerably. Del- phinium, feverfew and achiUea are plentiful and cheap. Good snapdragons and stocks are still to be had. There are some orchids coming in and they sell readily. No lilies of any sort are to be had. Good sweet peas are scarce. Vaiious Notes. Mr. and Mrs. Fred Holton and daugh- ter have returned from their western trip. Mr. Holton is enthusiastic about the grandeur of the west, and tells some interesting incidents on hikes and rides through the Eoc^ies and Yellowstone park. Some well fruited nectarines are be- ing shown .1, this week by Gimbel Bros. They were grown by H. V. Hunk^l at their Brown Deer range. Two summers ago Mr. Hunkel grew four tubs of grapes, which were also exhibited by Gimbel Bros, at the time. Tuesday, July 1, the First National bank and the Wisconsin National bank merged as the First Wisconsin National bank. The congratulations of friends and patrons brought forth a marvelous floral display. There were about 100 offerings, ranging in price from $5 to $50. Every retailer in town figured a good business at the close of '^he day. The Fleischman Floral Co., Chicago, sent a man to Milwaukee Tuesday, July 1, to give personal care to some Beauties for the First Wisconsin National bank. While bringing flowers to the market from their greenhouses, the truck of Biebs Bros, was run down by a Packard touring car on the Cedarburg road, Mon- day morning, July 7. Jacob Riebs, who was driving, was painfully injured. The truck was demolished. The Fourth of July coming on Fri- day this year prompted a number of stores to close Thursday evening and not to open for business until Monday, July 7. The plan was so commonly applied that there was little retail business done during the latter part of the week. Walter Halliday, of the C. C. Poll- worth Co., will be away a few weeks, enjoying a much needed rest. J. Eosenfeld, representing Wert- heimer Bros., New York, called on the retail florists last week.

WONQEBFUL RESULTS have been obtained by the use of RITO in Great Brilain during the last three years. Owing to the war it has been impossible to export, but now we are free to do so. Horticulturists of the U. S. A. will at once avail themselves of this unique method of increasing their products and of getting their stuff ready for the market some weeks earlier than they have hitherto done, and so secure a much higher price. WHAT IS RITO 7 — RITO is a humus, organic or natural fertilizer, a stimulant and energizing medium for soil bacteria. WHAT IS HUMUS 7 — Humus is a complex substance or mixture of substances present in the richest of soils. It is black in color and hence renders the soil darker. RITO contains Humus in the right form for fertilizing thej^oil. WHY ADD HUMUS 7^^^®C3.use most soils contain very little (if any) Humus, and it is necessary for the proper develdt)ment of the useful soil bacteria. The bacteria find in the Humus constituents a suitable medium for their robust propagation. That is. Humus is a source of food and energy for the soil bacteria. WHAT IS THE ANALYSIS OF R I TO 7— It has very little chemical analysis and it does not come in the same category as fertilizers. It is essentially an energizing medium for soil bacteria. Phosphates and potash are present in all soils, but in the ordinary way they are not readily available. RITO, by energizing the soil bacteria, is calculated to make the phosphates and potash available for the plant. It also stimulates the nitrogen fixing bacteria into action, so that the consequent development is out of all proportion to its analysis. RITO takes the place of farmyard manure, or it may be used in conjui^ction with farmyard manure or any recognized artificials. RITO is free from weed seeds, spores and germs, and from the eggs or larvae of noxious insects. It is well known that the soil is not a dead inert mass of matter, but that it teems with bacteria, which only need to be treated properly to be called into activity. There are millions in every spadeful of soil. RITO may be used in the open or under glass. % What RITO Users Say:- " I used RITO in the soil for my Tomatoes this year. The result was the best crop I ever had, and / started picking two to three weeks earlier than usual, frc|n,seed sown same date as previous years." A market gardener says that his RITO-treated lettuce were ready for the market a month before the untreated ones, with the result that the treated ones brought 2s. 6d. per dozen and the untreated ones, when they were ready for the market, brought is. per dozen. " I tried RITO last year on Potatoes, and they yielded 30 per cent, better than those not treated." " Every ounce of fruit from both the treated and the untreated Tomatoes has been gathered and care- fully weighed. The weight of fruit gathered from the treated portions average just five times the amount as from the untreated portion." " I have used RITO in the Peach Houses, and find that it greatly improved both the quality of the fruit and also the growth. I also find RITO very good if used when mixing soil for potting various plants, and I have also used it on my Vines with excellent re- sults." " I have pleasure in testifying to the merits of RITO. It is 'Right Ho' and no mistake. I never saw Tomatoes do so well as when your RITO was applied as a top-dressing mixed with the soil; the roots the plants made in this way were extraordinary, and the crops correspondingly good. The same ap- plies to Cucumbers, also Chrysanthemums and to plants generally. It seems to consume the moisture, hence less watering is required." " RITO-treated Chrysanthemums made a much quicker and better start than they have usually done — in fact, the plants show a great improvement." RITO Is packed in double bars, and the price is $8.00 per 100 lbs. ex Quay, Boston or New Yorl(. Terms— Cash with order.

The market assumed its normal sum- mer condition during the first week of July. While the demand was not large, there was no surplus, as there is a great scarcity of good flowers, owing to the high temperature. Funeral work was the mainstay of the trade, with a few weddings. Counter trade was decidedly slow. •-> Outdoor gladioli are arriving in the local market and are of fine proportions. The deeper shades of pink and salmon are being shown; as yet there are no blooms of America or lighter colors of- fered. Summer roses are of negligible quality. Carnations are quite small and faded, but there is still a demand for them, as asters have not yet made their appearance this season. There were no lilies on the market last week. Cat- tleyas are quite scarce, but this shortage is not felt so keenly as it was during the month of June, as there is a much lighter call for them, mostly for expen- sive funeral pieces. White Killarney roses have been having a large call for wedding work during the latter part of June and the first of July, owing to the scarcity and high prices of lily of the valley. Shasta daisies are showing up well among the outdoor flowers. A good variety of perennials is offered, includ- ing delphiniums, feverfew, cornflowers, and other miscellaneous stock, such as calendulas, gypsophila, pond lilies, yel- low daisies, cdYeopsis and gaillardias. Various Notes. June business this year showed a marked improvement over the same pe- riod in 1918. In spite of the unseason- ably hot weather during the first half of the month, which not only forced the flowers on the market prematurely, but also proved a detriment to trade "In general, there was a big increase in the demand, far surpassing any June since the war began. The wholesalers report a good month, with no glut on the mar- ket at any time, even during the hot spell, as the active demand took care of the production, especially in all qual- ity flowers. The only loss sustained was in the inferior quality flowers caused by the intense heat. Growers are mak- ing preparations for next year's busi- ness on a larger scale than ever before, and anticipate general prosperity. P. J. McCarthy, of the M. Eice Co., Philadelphia, is calling on the trade here. IMMEDIATE SHIPMENT NET CASH mm ORDER GREENHOUSE GLASS SINQLC STRKNQTH. 8x10. 10x12. 10x14. $4.7S par bexi 16x18. $830 par box.

The Market. The market last week tightened up considerably, probably for two reasons, first, the past extremely hot weather, and second, the change to a much cooler temperature. Business has been at a standstill, and the scarcity of some stock has, therefore, not been felt nearly so much as it would have been a little earlier. Boses have been coming in only in the medium and shorter grades, and for this reason have not been cleaning up as fast as usual. Carnations are just about over; the few that are still com- ing into the market have been cleaning up, although they have been poor. A few peonies are still to be had in pretty good condition, although they do not keep long after coming out of the icebox. Sweet peas continue to glut the market. Other flowers coming in now are snapdragons, bachelor's but- tons, coreopsis, gladioli, gypsophila, gaillardia, black-eyed susans, wild asters and a little candytuft. Asters have made their appearance, a few short ones arriving. Various Notes. Employees of the street railway com- pany here have been out on strike i for higher wages. This necessitates the use of all kinds of vehicles and conveyances in order to get people to work and also to deliver the orders. This has hit both wholesalers and retailers. George Potter, of the W. Q. Potter Co., is growing some prize-winning gla- dioli on his country place, which he is bringing to the wholesale market. Carl Lee, of the retail store of the J. M. Gasser Co., was recently married to Miss O'Malley, of the same firm. Ella Grant "Wilson 's son, who recently returned from service overseas, has again started pushing the florists' pub- licity interests. Edward Lewandowsky has just re- turned from overseas. He belonged to the Motor Transport Corps, in which he held the rank of first sergeant. W. F. B. Detroit, Minn. — Axel Dahl, proprietor of the Detroit Greenhouses, is planning to grow part of the carnations he needs this year. Sedalia, Mo. — The employees of the L. H. Archias Seed & Floral Co. enjoyed an all-day picnic July 4 at the club house on the Lamine river. The party, con- sisting of about thirty, took the early morning train, returning late that eve- ning. Swimming, fishing and other sports were indulged in.

INDIANAPOLIS, IND. The Market. Market conditions have changed but little since last week's report. Busi- ness has picked up and flowers are not in such oversupply as they were. Snap- dragons are perhaps the most plentiful flowers; these are in abundance in the various shades. Carnations are fewer, and deteriorate daily. Roses in both good and poor qualities are available, but were shorter last week than on pre- vious weeks, ^he stems, of course, are short. Lilies are scarce. Outdoor stock is good, and is also plen- tiful. Daisies are popular. Gladioli are becoming more abundant and are al- ways good sellers. Baby's breath has been in exceptional demand. Feverfew, candytuft and coreopsis add variety. A few outdoor sweet peas are in the market. Various Notes. Bertermann Bros. Co. is erecting a new greenhouse at Cumberland. The company is remodeling the East Wash- ington street range and rebuilding two of the houses. E. P. Black, of the Garfield Flower Shop, Chicago, was a visitor last week. E. E. T. TOLEDO, O. Toledo florists showed their sporting blood July 4. ^t the big arena, witness- ing the championship bout between Willard and Dempsey, were Thomas Mc- Gee, Max Spanner, Earl Metz, Jack Helmer and Frank Schramm. The trav- eling fraternity was represented by J. P. McCarthy, of the M. Eice Co., Phila- delphia, and John A. Lambert, of Ove Gnatt Co., La Porte, Ind. Charles Balluff, of Freeman's Flower Shop, is on a three weeks' vacation, fishing at the lakes. Miss Frieda Volk has returned from her vacation. At a well attended meeting of the Betail Florists' Association nearly all the members expressed their intention to attend the S. A. F. convention at Detroit. The local florists report June busi- ness exceptionally good, with a number of weddings. The Scottwood Green- houses had an elaborate decoration for house, church and a tent. Mrs. J. B. Freeman, of The Flowers, placed an elaborate decoration for the movie stars, Mr. Balluff being on his vacation. Mrs. Freeman had the as- sistance of John Lambert, of the Ove Gnatt Co., in installing the decorations. J. A. L.

The Florists^ Review 95 The Price Federal Greenhouse Cement No. 2 (Regular) \i}^ .. .J is Low There has been great improvement in the pro- cess of making Glazing Cements since they first were put on the market by us, in 1911, and the better article can now be sold for less than the inferior one has cost. ConsiderinK the rise in other comnodities It amounts to an important reduction here. Federal Greenhouse Cement No. 2 is a medium thick consistency. We consider this the ideal consistency for glazing work, not too thick nor too thin. Can be used in greenhouse gun, putty bulb, or other instruments. Those who prefer a slightly thinner consistency can thin with Federal Special Greenhouse Thinner. SOLD DIRECT TO THE GREENHOUSE TRADE BY We make several other grades of Cement for Special work.

They are good colors and nice, plump, well ripened stock. The small bulbs will practically all bloom, but of course not so many blooms per bulb the first season. WHITE FREESIAS, GRANDIFLORA. This is another one we got from Holland some years ago. We like it better than Purity on account of the substance in the fiower. Not quite so long a stem as Purity, more like Re- frecta Alba, but a very prolific bloomer and the best keeper we ever grew. 3000 1st size bulbs $1.00 per 100 6000 2nd size bulbs 75 per 100 10,000 small bulbs 50 per 100 These are a mighty good buy at the price; in fact, there are no better anywhere at any price, either in the white or the colored. All subject to previous sale, of course. We planted a 100-ft. bench to Freesias last year, and are adding to that this year. They made us more money to the square foot than any other crop on the place. GREEN'S GREENHOUSES, FREMONT. NEBR. ORDER FREESIAS FROM FREESIA HEADQUARTERS All varieties listed liere are STANDARD A. B.

Come to my greenhouses and inspect the stock of a Geranium to displace Nutt — WALL'S WINNER. This Geranium appeared five years ago among a batch of my own propagation, and from the day of its discovery has stood out above every other sort on the place. COLOR— Bright, glowing red. GROWTH — Basy to root. Branches without pinching. Makes short, compact plant. Early, free bloomer. Large trusses carried well above the foliage. Stands sun and drought. I am discarding Nutt and believe other growers will do the same when they have WALL'S WINNER. All Interested parties are Invited to call. If you can't come, send a mall order. First shipments in August. 2^-ln. plants, dozen, $4,00; 26 for $7.50; 100 for $25.00; 60 at 100 rate. J. WALL, 3236 N. Springfield Ave., Chicago. CALIFORNIA SUNSHINE GERANIUMS. We pay transportation.

As I have never be- fore Been a double one, will you state the name of the variety and also tell me how it is propagated? C. E. — O. The specimen clematis, just received, is so badly withered that it cannot be identified with certainty. Even the color is now in doubt, though it appears to be white. Probably the variety la Duchess of Edinburgh or a closely re- lated sort. The flower of Duchess of Edinburgh is white and strongly imbri- cated, and is one of the best-known and most satisfactory of doubles. The plant is one of the Jackman hybrids and was derived from C. patens, which is prolific of hybrids and is more prone to pro- duce double-flowering sorts than is al- most any other species. In Europe the large-flowered or hy- brid varieties of clematis, such as the one submitted, are most commonly prop- agated by grafting pieces of year-old wood on the roots of some strong-grow- ing species, most frequently C. Flam- mula or C. Viticella. Americans, how- ever, generally prefer the quicker and more economical method, propagation from cuttings of young or partly rip- ened wood. The cuttings are usually taken in May or June and are inserted in sand over gentle bottom heat. There is no better place for these cuttings than a mild hotbed, if careful attention is given to shading and spraying, with ventilation in the later stages. When old, large clumps are available as stock plants, propagation by layering also is practiced. YOU WILL FIND All The Best Offers All The Time —IN THE— HEVraW'S CLASSIFIED ADVS. A Glazing Putty of Real Value In all our experience and investigation we had never found a preparation for bulbing over the outside of a greenhouse that was quite satisfactory, until we ran across PERMANITE. This was about four years ago. At that time we set about investigating the merits of PERMANITE proceeded to watch the results of its application to greenhouse roofs. Last year we were entirely convinced of its high quality and durability, and ac- cepted the western agency for the sale of these goods. We applied PERMANITE to hundreds of greenhouse roofs, over almost every part of the United States. The results obtained were highly satis- iactory indeed. Glass roofs of all kinds, both old and new, were made water-tight and air-tight, saving thousands of plants from being spoiled by water dripping on them and saving many hundreds of tons of coal by making the roofs proof against the wind and storms of winter. We give PERMANITE our unqualified endorsement and recommend it highly for all kinds of glazing. We have a very large stock on hand in our warehouse and can ship imme- diately.

Safety First with the New One-Hand Permanite :: Glazing Machine No need to stop and sliil't around every lew minutes when you use the new One-Hand Permanite Machine— you can liold on with one hand and glaze with the other, "^'our glazing radius, without shifting, is almost three limes as far as it used to be. Think how much this means in time — what a saving of energy and effort. And there is no risk, no danger to yourself or the glass because of slipping or rolling off. There is no slowing up of the work either, because you must needs be extra careful. One hand to hold with, one hand to work with. Just as fast a-, you can move your hand, just that fast is your glazing done. It's t|uick and sure and \V> sinii)le too. See how .securely it hangs upon your arm. You can glaze all day long without tiring, lor there is neither weight nor strain upon the wrist— the strong, sturdy muscles of the forearm do the work.

This report has recently been submitted to Mr. George Creel and marks the end of our activities. The Division of Advertising came into existence in an emergency— a world crisis — our country was engaged in the greatest war in history. Advertising was called upon to do its part. This has been our task. It has been a most pleasant duty and a great privilege to per- form our part in this war work. The generous contributions of space and service ten- dered by so many hundreds of patriotic publishers, advertisers and advertising men have made our work possible. Their contributions have been administered in the interest of Government War Advertising as the report shows. All such contributions were "for the winning of the war" and, of course, automatically ceased with the signing of the armistice and cessation of hostilities. In making this report and acknowledgment we finish our work. Thankfully we acknowledge the receipt of these generous donations. Without this wonderful patriotic support the Division of Advertising could not have operated. We believe that you and all the others who have contributed to this work can feel rewarded by the cer- tainty that such co-operation has had its definite place in bringing the war to a successful end. Sincerely yours, WM. H.JOHNS. Chairman. we must not forget the v^ar and its lessons, nor those w^ho gave their best to winning the war. And among these, let us not forget those who kept the home fires burning and by their united efforts made possible the mainte- nance of the incomparable American fighters. IS the American Green- « house Mfg. Co., the only green- house manufacturing company mentioned in the report. EXKOUTIVK OKDKK January 2Ctli.

Then later, the balance was built, making one of the finest park layouts in the west. Notice the central loca- tion of the workroom, mak- ing both working and heat- ing the houses economical. Notice the lean-to head or passage house, on either side of the workroom, leading into the houses; an arrangement you at once r nize as having distinct advantage. Now take another look at the front view, mj D T_J other ecog- and imagine how imposing it must look in its elevated position, with groups of steps, terraces and foun- tains before it. When you consider that it measures 150 feet across the front, and the other house extends back 180 feet, you begin to appreci- ate its size. If this layout is too lai'ge for your needs, let's get down to a size that isn't. Let's talk it over together. Perhaps one of our Standard Stock houses would be just the thing.

Gentlemen: I have great pleasure in saying a few words in com^ mendation of the work just completed on Mr. Robert J. Thome's Estate. There were some very large cavities in several of the trees and the manner in which your workmen cleaned, braced and filled them reflects great credit upon themselves and the Company which employs them. I consider money spent on trees that are in poor health and decaying money well invested. I heartily indorse your methods. Yours very truly, Robert D. Chalmers, Superintendent. The saving of priceless trees is a matter^of first importance on every estate. • Davey Treel Surgery is a fulfillment of the maximum expectations of those who love and value trees.

ANNUAL MEETING Enthusiastic and earnest discussion made the fifth annual convention of the Texas State Florists' Association interesting and helpful to the florists who came from all parts of the state, and from other states, to at- tend. The entertainment was as successful as the business sessions. NDICATIONS of the open- ing day for a successful meeting, as reported in last week's issue of The Eeview, were% amply ful- filled in the succeeding program of the Texas State Florists ' Associa- tion, at Austin, July 9 and 10. The business sessions were carried out as scheduled on the program, and the entertainment fea- tures, BO well planned by the Austin Florists' Club, went off in perfect style. The program contained a number of addresses by Texas florists on subjects of much present interest and of par- ticular importance to growers and re- tailers of the Lone Star state. In addi- tion to local talent, the association had the president of the S. A. F., J. F. Am- mann, as the guest of honor, who spoke on matters concerning the national or- ganization, and particularly of the pub- licity campaign. On the latter subject his remarks seemed to bear fruit, for the association voted $50 to the S. A. F. publicity fund. Enjoyable Entertainment. Following the regular program of the afternoon of July 9, the members pres- ent visited the Capitol, where they ex- amined a number of historic papers, in- cluding the Texas declaration of inde- OFFICERS ELECTED PRESIDENT U. 0.

Judge Tyler pendence from Mexico and the articles of secession of Texas from the Union. These documents are the originals and bear the signatures of a number of the men who made Texas history famous. That evening a dinner was given to the visiting florists by the Austin Flo- rists' Club. This was a most enjoyable occasion. It was one of those get-to- gether love-feasts, and the hour was late when the guests adjourned. The second day was taken up in the carrying out of the prescribed program, the discussion of several important questions of vital interest to the florists of the state, and the conclusion of the business of the association. The elec- tion of ofiScers resulted as follows: President, H. O. Hannah, Sherman; vice-president, J. H. Davis, Fort Worth; secretary-treasurer, L. J. Tackett, Aus- tin; directors, Chas. Alff, Sr., Austin, and E. W. Judge, Tyler; press represen- tative, Mrs. E. W. Judge, Tyler; educa- tional director, Miss Bird, Denison. Treasury Well Supplied. The treasurer's report showed that the association was fairly prosperous from a financial standpoint, as th? treas- ury had in it enough funds to pay all outstanding accounts and contribute $50 to the S. A. F, publicity fund and yet leave ample funds to bear all expenses of the association for another year. Trade exhibits were staged by a num- ber of firms from northern and eastern cities, among them Wertheimer Bros., New York; M. Bice Co., Philadelphia; Lion & Co., New York; Poehlmann Bros. Co., Chicago; Duro Paper Products Co., Chicago; A. L. Randall Co., Chicago, and Skinner Irrigation Co., Troy, O. These drew a good deal of attention from the visitors. About seventy-five florists of Texas were in attendance, in spite of the fact that none of the railroads offered re- duced rates. There was a good-sized H. O. Hanoah J. F.

Thete was discussion of an all-BQuth- ern organization by florists of other states as well as of Texas. No action was taken, however. One of the strong- est pleas in its behalf was presented by Thomas Joy, of the Joy Floral Co., Nash- ville, Tenn. He said: "Can you think of a good reason why the florists of the south should not or- ganize? Some of the reasons and ad- . vantages, as I see them, are enumerated below: "In the first place, an organization of Bonthern florists could be of great help to the S. A. F. in that they could more easily get in direct touch through such an organization with its members. There are also many southern florists whom we could interest in a southern organization who would eventually join the mother body, the S. A. F., of which our organization should be a part.

This record was compiled after considerable work and tact. A few days preceding the birthday we remind the husband of the fact and suggest the sending of flowers for the occasion. There are various other methods that are business getters. There should be some one assigned to this particular line of work. In conclusion, let me say that adver- tising pays, and the sooner you wake up to this fact the sooner your business will grow. Decide now. Let this fall be the beginning of an advertising cam- paign and give serious consideration to the matter of judicious advertising for the florists' business. Remember one thing, that you can waste a great deal of money unless you select the proper medium, and once you have started, do not stop. A day's ads may not bring results, but by continuous hammering you will reap the harvest.

I would like to take you back with me fifteen or twenty years and look at the flower business in Texas from the grow- ing standpoint. At that time (I have no official date) fully ninety per cent of the flowers marketed by Texas florists were imported from northern markets, and the florists took great pride in stating in their advertising that their flowers came from northern growers. Ten years later the situation was not much improved; perhaps this ninety per cent was reduced to seventy per cent. Still the Texas florist was pleased to pa- rade the fact that his fine carnations, roses and such stock came from Chicago, or whatever northern city he happened to be shipping from. The farther away the source, the prouder he was. The last ten years have wrought con- siderable change. The seventy per cent of imports has now been reduced to per- haps forty per cent, but, most important of all, the Texans in the flower business have awakened to the fact that Texas- grown flowers are second to none, and are taking pride in stating to their cus- An address on "The Possibilities of Texas Supplying Her Own Flowers," delivered by A. P. Koehle, of Houston, Tex., before the Texas State Florists' Association, July 9. tomers and displaying in their ads that their flowers are home-grown. Will-power Wanted. The possibilities here in our line are unlimited. There isn 't a flower or a plant required in the conduct of the flower business that cannot be grown profitably and to perfection here. Per- haps in some sections success cannot be obtained with some things, but it can be elsewhere in the state, and it is our duty to encourage to the utmost those who make the attempt. One of our greatest troubles is that when a brother florist suggests the grow- ing of some line we are in dire need of, he is usually confronted with the statement, "It can't be done," and if he asks why, the reply is usually, ' * Well, no one ever has." Well, no one ever crossed the Atlantic before Columbus, either, but still he accomplished it. As in many other reputed impossible feats, it takes nerve, it takes money, it takes good equipment, it takes persistence, but above all it takes faith in the under- taking. From my observations, the last is one of the things lacking most, and without that the other requirements will be but makeshifts. How Carnations Came West. You know, a number of years ago florists in the middle west had to get all. A. F. Koehle. 12 The Florists^ Review JULT 17. 1919. or nearly all, of their carnations from the eastern market. When the middle western fellows woke up to the grow- ing game, the eastern growers gave them "the merry ha! ha!" That same old "It can't be done" was on the job there, and the same old reason, ' ' No one ever has," played around their front door, too, but take a look at the condi- tion there today. Friends, they buried that I 'It can't be done" stufl^ or else sent it down here. Anyway, it's here. Let's give it to the ax, or send it to California, and get in the "We'll do it" class. Let me tell you something; write it down on your calendar or put it in the "sanctum sanctorum," but I have a little bee in my bonnet that some day I hope to see delivered to Texas florists, as well as to those of other states within a reasonable distance, choice roses and carnations twelve months in the year. That sounds big, doesn't itf But look out now; don't let that "It can't be done * ' get on the job, for it can be done and for every reason anyone will give me why it can't be done, I'll give him three why it can. Conditions Favor Olieapneas. We have all the natural elements re- quired to grow flowers, and with these at hand we can produce at least forty per cent cheaper than elsewhere. But this last statement has been our great- est drawback. We wanted to produce 100 per cent cheaper, and have kept cheap production in the limelight too long. Most of us have tried to pro- duce good stock with makeshift equip- ment, and then blamed it on the bloomin' climate when we had to place an order for regular shipments for our requirements, and never gave a thought to how long the man we placed the order with could take care of it if he wasn't any better equipped to grow it than we were. We nave to get away from cheap construction and hoping the weather man will be good to us. I am glad to say that in recent years much progress has been made in con- struction and equipment, but we need much more of it. Let's stop trying to grow good mums under canvas and praying for frost not to get them; it fails nine seasons out of ten. As good mums can be grown here as any other place, and have been. Then why waste time and energy trying to grow them 9o much cheaper than the man in the north from whom you will have to buy them the nine times you failf Weather an Aid. I stated that we can grow most things forty per cent cheaper. It is a fact. If one first equips himself properly, he can accomplish as good results as anyone on half the- price. There are worlds of stock, good staple stuff, which we can grow outside to perfection and which can't be so grown elsewhere. We have more sunshine during the time of year when stock is scarce and at its highest price, than any other section of the country. This is a fact, and will stand investigation. Last, but not least, stock of the most staple kinds produces and matures to perfection more rapidly here than in moat places, thereby giving us considerably more return from our glass than other sections. At present, Texas florists are produc- ing a large quantity of stock, but much of it is wasted or sacrificed at a ridicu- lously low price, principally on account of lack of marketing facilities. A great deal of this stock is grown on places constructed to supply their own needs only. Often for short periods they have a glut of some stock, which results in a bargain sale, not owing to a disposition to cut under or take advantage of the other fellow, but just because the florist hates to see good stock go on the dump. He hasn't sufBcient stock to go to the extra expense of advertising it to others in the trade, for by the time his ads got to working, his surplus would be gone and things back to normal. So often has this been done that a great many of you have at some time said or heard said, "You can't depend on good stuff in Texas. ' ' Two Needa of Texas. There are two things badly needed in Texas. One is an up-to-date commis- sion house, preferably centrally located, one which would have the hearty coop- eration of every florist in the state. How easy to dispose of all your sur- plus by sending it to this house, which would know at all times where it could be immediately placed! We would not only concentrate all the surplus stock of the state at one place, so that it could be readily distributed to those in need of it,- but it would not be in operation long before our northern friends would be consigning stock for distribution, giving us a splendid market to look to at all times in case of need. The other need is more commercial glass. At present, compared with the great volume of stock sold through re- tail channels, there are scarcely any wholesale establishments, and I cannot see why, unless it is because of that pesky ' ' It can 't be done. " It is a duty we Texas florists owe to ourselves to make every effort to induce the erection of more glass for wholesale purposes, because the stock can be grown here and it is needless to state the great chance for disposal if once it is grown. When Tou Build, Build WelL Before closing, I wish to make a few suggestions which I think are vital to the success of the industry in this state. Don't build a greenhouse without equip- ping it with plenty of heat. You may not need it but once in two or three vears, but when you do, you need it badly. Don't build without proper ventila- tion. Be sure of a good water supply and the right kind of water. Grade the land on which you build to assure its always being high and dry. I think a safe rule to follow would be to build your houses and equip them as if you were expecting a winter tempera- ture of 20 degrees below zero. This ap- plies to any section of the state. Severe freezes do not come often, I know, and are not of long duration, but they do come and, if you are not prepared, your hands are tied, and more than likely you lose nights of sleep and ultimately a whole year's profit, enough to properly heat the place as required two or three times. Forget that idea of cheap con- struction because you are in the sunny south. Jack Frost does come, and we have long droughts and again we have worlds of rain. Prepare yourself for all these. If you do, and have a fair knowledge of growing flowers, I say to you, you can grow anything you want. Let me give you a little example of how ridiculous it is for us to go on in our makeshift way of growing stock and then blaming failure on the climate. I know of Big commercial places in Chi- cago— I said Big, and spell it with a big B because they are so large that they have to haul their soil for miles and miles and use so much they haul it in trainloads. They use double- A glass on their b^mses, they have steel construc- tion, they have the best boilers money can buy, their houses are always well painted and puttied, they have the best ventilating apparatus on the market, they pay the top-notch prices for the best growers, they have up-to-date watering equipment. What is the re- sult of all this apparent expense? I will tell you. They have good stock to sell; they always have, and always will have it. And you never hear them com- plain of climatic conditions, yet they have more dark days in December, January and February than we have in the whole year. So my final appeal to you, brother florists, is to boost for more well equipped places and lend a ready hand to encourage those striving to make Texas a flower-producing state. J«OBLMtLmJfltti«iy«4LM2MyM^^ MOTT-LY MUSINGS ALBANY CLUB OUTING. The annual outing of the Albany Flo- rists' Club was held Thursday, July 10, at the home of Fred Goldring, Font Grove Farm, Slingerlands, N. Y. It was, as usual, an enjoyable affair. After a tour of the greenhouses and grounds, a business meeting of the club was held, followed by an informal talk. It was the general opinion that stock, both of plants and cut flowers, will maintain the higher scale of prices now recognized, especially referring to orchids. Congratulatory reference was made to the fiftieth wedding anniversary of Mr. and Mrs. Ansel D. Carpenter, of Cohoes, N. Y., celebrated July 7, which was attended by over 100 friends, in- cluding a representation from the Al- bany Florists' Club, of which Mr. Car- penter is a leading member. A happy incident was the presentation to the worthy couple of a silver loving cup hy John Sambrook, of Troy, in the name of several fellow craftsmen, as a token of their esteem. Mr. Carpenter, responding, credited his good wife with the success they had attained, her little lean-to greenhouse being the origin of what is now one of the most up-to-date retail establisli' ments in New York "state. The store, by the way, is ably managed by A. D. Car- penter, Jr., who is an apt pupil of his father. This reference elicited a remark from a member: "Like father, like son, A W' July 17, 1919.

The young- sters have taken up the idea with vim and already created a bank account and acquired invaluable knowledge. W. C.

W. W. Hannell, of Watervliet, and J. E. Barrett, of Troy,* followed along the same lines, each being fortunate in the possession of sturdy scions in whose hands the success of their several in- terests are assured. In the absence of President William Newport, who was detained by a ter- rific thunder storm, which, by the way, was gladly welcomed, following a hot, dry spell, Thomas Tracey, of the Al- bany Cut Flower Exchange, proposed a vote of thanks to our host and hostess, the latter furnishing an unlimited sup- ply of home-made root beer, freely par- taken of by both the young and older members, accompanied by an occasional winking of the eye.

[This is tlie second Installment of tbe article by E. A. White, professor of floriculture at Cor- nell University, Ithaca, N. Y , on "How Science Aids Florists," which began in last week's issue of The Beview.] Vegetable pathology has an intimate relation to the healthfulness of plant tissue. Study in this science by such men as De Barry, Walker, Tubeuf, lin- ger, Hallier and others, has revealed the character of many plant parasites, and these men have given suggestions for exterminating and avoiding them. Prob- ably the most valuable suggestions which have come from scientific plant pathologists in recent years are those which have shown practical growers the importance of proper sanitary condi- tions in greenhouses if a healthy and vigorous growth is to be maintained. Since the pathologists have shown car- nation growers that stem-rot is induced by deep and careless planting, and that rose mildew is the result of sudden and pronounced atmospheric changes, there has been as marked a decrease in these diseases as if special directions for their eradication had been given. Competiti(m for Soil Food. It has been necessary for men of science to demonstrate to practical flower growers that proper environmen- tal conditions are as essential for healthy plants as they are for human individuals in the home. In an excel- Ifnt paper which he read before the ^>w York Federation of Floral Clubs during farmers' week, Professor Fippin considered the relationship of sanitary conditions in the soil to healthy plant growth. In this paper Professor Fippin ■states: It should always be known that the crop pro- "'"'"'d is competing with many other plants in t'le soil. We well recognize the importance of Keeping down weeds which will compete with j''p main plant for food and moisture, but we niiyp not given so much attention to the compe- yitlon of the crop with the microscopic plants "1 the soil, the bacteria and the fungi. Instead <>r being a dead mass, the soil is teeming with ire. In every grain of soil there may be mll- jions of l)Rcteria and many kinds of fungi and molds. Tliese require the same food elements fiat the higher plants use. and it may frequently "appen that the soil conditions are as well, or nf .?''* * •'"'* better, suited to the development "j these microscopic plants than to our higher nA" ""^ *^^^^ ™'' tf**" **** ascendancy and ThT **"* plant food designed for the crop. inis Idea, too. is one of the recent develop- ments In soil fertility. In England, Russell and Hutchinson have developed many facts showing that In their soil, and especially in soils known to be sewer-sick, and In greenhouse soils that have come into a so-called sick condition, there may be the development of excessive numbers of tbe simplest animals, protosoa, which com- pete with the plants' roots and with beneficial forms of bacteria. They have developed facts which Indicate that any treatment which kills or reduces the number of these competing organ- isms tends to promote the growth of higher plants, and In general ^o create a better state of fertility. It should be pointed out that in the greenhouses, where conditions are continually favorable for their growth, such difllcultles may become more acute than in the field, where the variations In climatic conditions and tlie changes in season, including freezing in winter, tend to bold such processes in clieck. Desire for New Varieties. During the earlier periods of plant culture, the dealers in novelties were de- pendent on material introduced from foreign countries. These plants are still interesting many dealers. Within recent years, however, native haunts of ornamental plants have been so thor- oughly gone over by the collectors that there are now fewer new species of value. Since this is true, plant-growers and the introducers of novelties have come to lay marked emphasis on the study of genetics and this somewhat new subject has influenced the charac- ter of plant products to a marked de- gree. This influence has, however, been more pronounced in the changes of spe- cial characters because of changed en- vironmental conditions, so that new va- rieties have interested our plant cultur- ists. While some work in scientific plant breeding was done by Linnaeus, Koelreuter in the latter part of the eighteenth century laid the first real foundation of our scientific knowledge of the subject. Later, such names as Knight, Gartner, Darwin, Focke, De Vries, Mendel, Bateson and others stand out prominently in scientific literature relating to plant breeding. Science Provides Principles. In their recent book on this subject, Bailey and Gilbert state as follows: One of the "signs of the times" in North America is the attention that is being given to practical breeding of cultivated' plants. Until within a comparatively few years, however, breeding work has been unscientific in the ex- treme. Much of this has been because there have been few scientific principles which were tangible. Scientific experiments are rapidly accu- mulating results with many kinds of plants, and eventually there will probably be formulated definite statements as to how to proceed to secure desired results. However, there Is no hope that plant breeding can ever produce forthwith the things that we desire. In the way In which the mechanic devises new machines, notwithstanding all the suggestions of persons who write with such self-assurance. For all that we can now see, plant breeding will always be an experi- mental process. It is then for men of science to for- mulate, through experimentation, the laws which govern heredity in plants so that practical growers may apply them in so far as possible in bringing out new and improved varieties. Present-day scientific breeders of plants are, therefore, not now working to produce new varieties so much as they are to discover, if possible, the laws which govern hereditary charac- ters. Definite color and form inherit- ance, which may be expected by cross- ing different plants, is of far more im- portance to the scientific mind than is the production of some commercial va- riety of plant which excels those now in existence. [To be continued.] (xm isrm^j^ deadedb SHOULD SLOGAN BE ALTERED? I noticed in an answer which appeared in The Review recently in response to a query regarding the use of the slo- gan, "Say It with Flowers," that it was stated that there is no copyright and that one could go as far as he liked in using it. That is legally the fact, but I do not think florists should use the slogan coupled with their names, such as ' ' Say It with Smith 's Flowers. ' ' Such a form of the slogan appears in one of the newspapers of a large city near here, in the advertising of one of the leading florists. This newspaper goes to practically every town in this state, to at least half of an adjoining state and to part of four neighboring states. Is it fair to all the florists in this territory to have this advertisement come into their towns in connection with the na- tional slogan, which belongs to every florist to use to make all sales better, but not to any one man? I wish that no man had a right to print the slogan as "Say It with Brown's Flowers," or "Say It with Smith's Flowers." Let it be "Say It with Flowers," and let the public get that expression into their minds, and not connect it with any one person or place. ' H. A NUTMEG FOE THE BLUE HEN. That report in The Review of July 3 regarding the subscriptions to the florists' publicity campaign is most in- teresting. I have only got to Page 1 as yet, but "^ 1 14 The Fbtists' Revievtr July 17, 1919. i see that the Nutmeg state boys have contributed $1,164.50, which is good for a population of less than a million. On the same page I observe that the Blue Hen chickens have only been able to scrape up a 5-spot, which is not so good for a state with a population of about one-fifth of a million. I speak, of course, by the census of 1900, but the increase of population in both states is probably relatively equal and therefore does not affect the five to one proportion. Now, if Delaware wants to show that she's a spunky bird, she will get busy right away and scrape up more than a 5-spot. About fifty 5-spot8 would be more like a game chicken. Maybe this comparison might be carried further afield than Connecticut and Delaware, but I have not had time to look others up yet. You can do that for yourselves. But to stick to the text — my idea for the present is to stir up my near neigh- bors, who have been enjoying an era of great prosperity the last five years. Every chicken in the florists' business in the state of. Delaware ought to do its share of scratching for publicity, and not live on the scratching done by the less lazy birds in other parts. Get into the Publicity Garden and do your share! Get after that Nutmeg, dear old Blue Hen I George C. Watson. CX7TTING PEONIES. In The Review for July 3 J. S,— Pa. asks how far peonies should be cut from the ground. We find that we can safely cut two-thirds or even all the blooms if two or three leaves are left below the cut. Long-stemmed varieties are in better favor than the dwarf ones. Cow manure should never be used until the plants are 1 year old, and it would be better if it were not applied until they are 2 years old. Mrs. Wm. Crawford. we see the proud possessor of six plants sprinkle them every day, when they need to ripen and get ready to produce the new eyes that will bring the flowers next season ! Be sparing with fertilizer and water until the new growth starts in Augfust. Mrs. Wm. Crawford. BEOWN SPOTS ON PEONIES. We are mailing some peony foliage showing brown spots, which seem to be some sort of fungous growth. Will you kindly state what should be done to get rid of themt W. H. C. & C— Kan. The fungous growth which appeared on the leaves sent is one with which we have not been troubled and 'for which, therefore, we have had no occasion to learn of a remedy. If the plants are in well-drained soil, planted not too deep, and have plenty of sunshine, I do not think this difficulty would arise. W. A. Peterson. SEASON FOB BIiASTED PEONIES. In The Eeview for July 3 A. D. C— N. T. asks why five out of six peony roots sold to a customer failed to bloom. The experience of five out of six peony clumps blasting is not uncommon where too much fertilizer is used. I would ven- ture a guess that the customer has used bone meal freely or barnyard manure as a covering during the winter. Either one wiU cause "indigestion" and pro- duce the condition described. Cream is good for children, but too much causes much suffering and anxiety. After the blooming season peonies should rest until August 1. How often BUSINESS EMBABBASSMENTS. Eureka, Cal. — G. Vanden Abeele, re- ceiver for the Cottage Gardens Nurs- eries, Inc., under date of July 11 ad- dressed a letter to stockholders and creditors in which he said in part: "Un- less some relief comes immediately we shall lose practically all our young stock on hand. With the exception of a hand- ful of men the crew has been on a three weeks' strike. No work is being done on the bulb farm and only a little water- ing is done at the Eden plant. The or- ders are piling up in the office and I am unable to get ready to deliver them. Already $28,000 worth of orders have been accepted and I am positive to reach the $100,000 mark. As I have stated in my former statements, only $20,000 is needed to save the situation and to guar- antee the creditors dollar for dollar on their claims. The local merchants have subscribed for $7,500, but it cannot be used unless the full amount is sub- scribed. It seems ridiculous that with assets of over $300,000 I have been un- able to sell the certificates which were ordered by the Superior Court of Hum- boldt county and which constitute a first lien upon the crops. It seems to me that, with 200 creditors and stockhold- ers, they should at least cooperate and be able to raise that small amount, which is all that is necessary to protect them- selves. Unless some action is taken there is only one way left for me to fol- low and that is to ask for my release as receiver and after that I cannot vouch for the outcome. I cannot keep on this way and work without funds and see the s'ock starve on my hands, as the losses since the strike are already over $1,000 a day. Meetings of local creditors have been held, but without any results." The statement which accompanied the letter showed total liabilities of $304,- 500.32 and assets of $691,428.36, with the explanation that the land and build- ings are inventoried at cost price and the bulbs and nursery stock at thirty- five per cent less than the wholesale price list. The list of secured creditors shows that C. W. Ward holds a mortgage for $124,350.39 and interest. BOSTON. The Market. Last week was cool, in striking con- trast to its predecessor. As a conse- quence, business recovered a little from the lethargy into which it had sunk and flowers cleaned up better. The present week opens with high temperatures and their continuance will again stagnate flower selling. Boses are the leading flower in the market and are moving fairly well at midsummer prices. Amer- ican Beauties are of good quality and selling quite well. Double White Kil- larney and Kaiserin are both good. Columbia is turning out a good warm weather variety and both Ward and Ophelia are fairly good. Miller, Hearst, Milady and Francis Scott Key are other good sellers. Carnations are few in number and of inferior quality; they will soon be replaced by asters, which are now arriving in small lots. The variety coming in is Queen of the Mar- ket. Good sweet peas sell as well as anything, but there is only a moderate supply available. There is a good supply of gypsophila, both elegans and paniculata. The double form of the latter is most in demand. A few lilies and small lots of lily of the valley are seen. Miscellaneous an- nuals, such as cornflowers, sweet sul- tans, larkspurs, calendulas and Shirley poppies, are seen in small quantities. Cattleyas are decidedly scarce and are mostly C. Gaskelliana. Prices on these vary from $12 to $18 per dozen. A few gardenias are arriving. Gladioli from outdoors are more plentiful and are chiefly Halley, Mrs. Francis King and America. There has been a fair de- mand for asparagus the last week. In the principal retail stores nymphseas, as usual, are used in quantity for win- dow decorations. Farquhar's Employees Have Picnic. The fourth annual outing of the em- ployees of Farquhar's store and nurs- eries was held July 5. The picnic was held at Thompson's island, through the courtesy of Charles Bradley, superin- tendent of the farm and trade school. Nearly 125 employees and their families gathered at the City Point boat landing:: at 9 a. m., where a specially chartered boat conveyed them to the island. On arrival a ball game was at once started between the store and nursery. It was a hotly contested game, the nursery finally winning by a score of 10 to 9- The feature of the game was the batting of Fletcher, of the nursery team. With the bases full in the last inning he drove a home run, winning the game. After the ball game dinner was served on tables set under the trees on the lawn. During dinner the school band fur- nished musical selections. After dinner A. L. Dix, acting superintendent of the J0LT 17, 1919. The Florists^ Review 15 trade Bchool, told interestingly the his- tory of the island. Athletic contests follo^e*^ diiuier and resulted as follows: Hundred'Tard race for men — Fletcher, flrat; Boemer, second. Fifty-yard race for glrla— Miss Fordham, first; wiBB Masters, second. Tbree-Iegged race — Roemer and Fletcher, first; Holsworth and Ohisholm, second. Fifty-yard race, men oTer 40 years — ^Dary, first; Heed, second.. Tb rowing baseball for distance, girls — ^Mlss Wblte, first; Miss Wannberg, second. Potato race, girls — Miss Fordham, first; MIm Hlntze, secopd. Throwing baseball, men — ^Fletcher, first; Boe- jner. second. ripe race — Reed, first; Armstrong, second. Egg rftce, girls — Mist Mullen, first; Miss Hlntze, second. Hurdle race — Fletcher, first; Chlsholm, second. Prizes were distributed by President J. K. M. L. Farquhar and the party left for home at 6 p. m. The committee in charge was composed of J. W. Davy, chairman; James Armstrong, Walter Bartlett, Miss Hintze, Harry Jenner, Harold Leary, Miss Leonard, Miss Mul- len, R. Chapman, D. M. Smith, Frank Stead. Starter, J. G. Armstrong. An- nouncer, William Gordon. Umpire of ball game, Clarence Stone. Judges, A. P. Dewar, Victor Nilsoon, P. Fordham, George Cruickshank, Harry Jenner, Kobert Walsh. Various Notes. The Boston Florists' Association an- nounced July 10 that, owing to their inability to secure exclusive use of the baseball field at Wardhurst, Lynnfield, July 12, their projected outing would be postponed until July 17. The Budlong Rose Co. handles an average of 100,000 roses weekly. At present many varieties are included, but Columbia, Double White Killarney, Hearst, Ophelia, Donald McDonald and Francis Scott Key are specially good. They also handle gardenias and Aspara- gus Sprengeri. Daniel Iliffe, our local greenhouse builder, was married July 11 to Miss Jennie Gerry. This is Mr. Iliffe *s sec- ond matrimonial venture and his many friends in the trade wish him all kinds of good luck. B. A. Snyder & Co. report that they had the largest June business in their history. While trade is much quieter now, there is a good demand for roses, sweet peas, orchids and other flowers. A committee from the Gardeners' and riorists' Club visited the Blue HiH Nurs- eries, South Braintree, of which Julius Heurlin is proprietor, to inspect a strik- ing, distinct and handsome form of Thuja occidentalis, named Gwynne's va- riety. They unanimously voted to rec- ommend the award of a report of merit lor it. There is a grand collection of evergreens at this nursery, including many handsome specimens. The com- mittee making the trip consisted of W. H. Judd, W. C. Rust, W. N. Craig, James Methven and Kenneth Finlayson. Carbone had the decorations for the ^lodgett-Hadley wedding, at Prides Crossing, on the north shore, July 12. Larkspurs and Lilium regale were ex- tensively used in the church and had a charming effect. John W. Foote, of Reading, is already sending in excellent bouvardia in sev- eral colors. Now, while choice flowers ai"P scarce, it is quite welcome. The annual picnic of the Gardeners' and Florists' Club, at Cunningham park, ^s the principal coming event of inter- est to both commercial and private growers. Contributions have come in sonorously and everything is in readi- ness for what promises to be the finest picnic ever held. Ex-pr^sident Thomas Pegler and wife are coining from Lewis- ton, Me., and others will travel long distances to attend it. McAlpine Bros., of Efeter, N. H., are shipping in extremely good Columbia, Double White Killarney and Ophelia roses at present. The employees of Joseph Breck & Sons Co. and the Breck-Bobinson Nurs- ery Co. held a combined picnic on the estate of Mrs. C. Van Brunt, in Read- ville, July 12. There were 105 in the party and all made the journey in autos. The beautiful pleasure grounds, attrac- tive vegetable gardens and other fea- tures of this estate, which is in charge of James ]ðven, greatly interested them. A baseball game between teams from the nurseries and store resulted in a tie, each scoring three runs. Refresh- ments were served and all spent a most delightful day. Arthur Hans, now located at Billerica Center, is growing gladioli in quantity and is shipping large numbers to the Flower Exchange. Paul F. Brigham is also a large shipper of these popular flowers. There is but little local interest as yet in the coming Detroit convention, and, while Boston will send a delega- tion, it promises to be unusually small. While the attacks of gypsy moth in Boston proper are less visible than in former years, due to persistent winter creosoting and summer spraying, a few miles out there are large stretches of woodland that are now almost de- foliated. It will be impossible to con- trol this pest by means of spraying, and The variety Morrowii is still undoubted- ly one of the best, with Maackii podo- carpa another beauty. W. N. C. McCALLTTM HEADS ON OTTTINa When the department heads of the McCallum Co., Pittsburgh, Pa., held their outing, June 28, at Evans City, Pa., they were photographed by the road- side. From the left to right in the illus- tration they are: R. E. Adgate, travel- ing salesman; E. J. McCallum, presi- dent; H. D. Wood, factory uu .,, :; G. C. McCallum, sales 'manager; H. G. Boyd, auditor; E. C. Tipton (at wheel), cut flower department manager; Earl Hunkle, shipper; C. C. Phillips, artificial flower department manager; J. C. Wal- ley, greenhouse superintendent; E. M. Niggel, wirework department manager. NEW YORK. 3t. With the small demand for flowers at present, the market is suffering from oversupply in many lines, particularly in outdoor stock. The enjoyable weather of the last few days has been in favor of such stock, and one or two good showers have raised its quality. Few asters are coming in, although usually at this date they are plentiful. Reports are that the early aster crop is more or less of a fail- ure, which probably accounts for the scarcity. The Fourth of July exodus this year was extraordinarily heavy, and a large body of flower buyers are still out of the city. The greatest concern of many ± . 1^ 1 V 000^* ^%.f^ '' ■ '^ Jk ^ 1 i. ^ "r '^ '■"• i i Department Heads of the McCallum Co. on their Day of Pleasure. the greater use of parasitic foes, the protection and increase of birds and the use of disease cultures would seem more practical methods of keeping the pests in control. In Europe, where they have existed for generations, they do no great damage where these restrictive agencies are employed. George Arnold is selling out his in- terests in the Arnold-Fisher Co., of Wo- burn. This up-to-date concern will handle roses and carnations exclusively the coming season. Most attractive at present is the col- lection of loniceras, bush honeysuckles, now fruiting in the Arnold Arboretum. others is the obtaining of summer quar- ters in the suburbs, or obtaining per- manent residential quarters outside the city, the renting problem in New York being now a serious one. Small wonder, then, that flowers should be receiving the minimum amount of attention. Roses are arriving heavily, and, after the best are disposed of, the remainder moves slowly at any price obtainable. This, of course, is not an unusual condi- tion for this time of year. American Beauty, in the special grades, moves slowly at a rather wide range of prices, with the best at about $20 per hundred. Hybrid teas are in similar condition. ^ --^.m- 16 The Rorists^ Review JULT 17, 1919. with prices, except for selected stock, practically unquotable. Francis Scott Key is meeting with a better demand than most of the other varieties, but is in much smaller supply than the others. ' Carnations are still coming in, but the quality in general is poor. The best ar- rivals occasionally bring $2 per hun- dred, but the majority of sales are made at $1 down to bargain figures. Lilies are not overpletttiful so far as daily arrivals are concerned, but, with a small demand for. them, they accumu- late, so that the prices prevailing in the last several months have given place to figures which may be said to be within a range of $10 to $15 per hun- dred. Lily of the valley is also suf- f«ring from accumulation of stock and moves slowly within the more modest range of $3 to $12. Orchids are not plentiful and such as arrive meet a fair demand, the highest grades of cattleyas bringing as much as il.per flower, and the lowest 35 cents or even less. Gladioli are strongly in evidence and the quality is on the whole good. Sal- able stocks bring 50 cents to 75 cents per dozen, according to variety. Sweet peas are still coming in and the best bring 50 cents per hundred, the rest going for anything obtainable. Large quantities of herbaceous flowers are ar- riving, far more than the market can absorb; consequently, the ash barrels are well supplied. Varioxis Notes. John Reimels' Sons, of Woodhaveu, N. Y., are fortunate in having a crop of especially fine asters, of which they are making daily shipments to the New York market. Philip F. Kessler made a short trip to the Adirondacks last week, where he made arrangements to house his family for the summer. He expects to make week-end trips to his mountain home from now on. (leorge Hildenbrand, of John Young & Co., r)3 West Twenty-eighth street, is taking a week's vacation, during which he will move to his new home at Free- port, L. I. Major P. F. O'Keefe, of Boston, was in town July 14, and with Secretary eighth street, will shortly remove to Salt Lake City, whertf he will be en- gaged with the Miller Floral Co., taking charge of the retail end of the business. Soman J. Irwin will attend the con- vention of the Canadian Horticultural Association, to be held in Toronto Au- gust 12 to 15. At the cloSe of that meet- ing he will proceed to Detroit to attend the S. A. F. convention. J. H. P. MILWAUKEE, WIS. The Maxket. The July market thus far has been typical of florists' summer routine — a general slowing up and deterioration in the flowers offered. This condition oc- curs 80 regularly and unfailingly with the summer time, that the trade does not regret the falling off- of business nearly so much as it would if there were a good supply of fancy stock to be dis- posed of. Gladioli and roses have first call, with not enough of either to meet the de- mand in the better qualities. There are plenty of cheap gladioli being shipped in, but they move slowly. A few asters have been received, but not enough to be noticeable as yet. Plenty of cornflowers and feverfew are to be had. Shasta daisies are plentful, but few are good. The first cut of out- door delphinium is about over and the side shoots are practically all that are available. Few orchids are coming in, but those that are on hand are excellent. Various Notes. Herman Hunkel says there will be a big shortage of all sorts of foliage plants next fall and winter. Mr. Hunkel has his force busy preparing poinsettia cut- tings, which are grown at the Humboldt avenue place. At the Brown Deer place there are thousands of cyclamens in I)rime condition. There has been a severe drought in tlie immediate vicinity of Milwaukee for the last month and flowers suffered a great deal. Sunday night, July 13, heavy rain relieved this condition and permitted cultivation of field plants. Henry Benz, formerly employed in the trade in Milwaukee, is home from KaorviUe Florists at Fifth Annual Picnic at Sunshine, Teon., July 10, Young left on an afternoon train for Baltimore, where both were to speak before the Baltimore Florists' Club on tlie publicity campaign. William Homburg, recently with G. E. M. Stumpp, Fifth avenue and Fifty- France. After a few days with his parents he will go to Racine, Wis., where he is part owner and manager of the Flower Shop. Mr. Benz is pleased with the showing made in the business during his absence. The Ove Gnatt Co., of La Porte, Ind. had a display of florists' supplies last week at the Hotel Wisconsin. Mat Schiltz was in charge. Miss Bose Semler, of the Edlefsen- Leidiger Co., is vacationing. Adolph Rice, of the Holton & Hunkel Co., is on a two weeks' vacation. The store employees of Gimbel Bros. enjoyed a picnic Sunday, July 13, at Waukesha beach. William Zimmermann haa a new Hud- son car. Gust. Rusch is spending the month of July at Cedar lake. A. H. M. Aug. M. Dittman & Son are now in their new location, at 415 Auer avenue, and report business excellent. Although uptown, they close Sunday during June, July and August, finding it easier to get work out late Saturday night than Sun- day morning. NEW ORLEANS, LA. The Market. Notwithstanding the exodus to vaca- tion resorts and the absence of social functions, the demand for cut flowers is fairly active, with stock arriving in poor state. The unsatisfactory class of stock now coming in has forced many of the houses to practically cut out sup- plies from growers in the middle west, and to rely to a large extent on home- grown stock. Carnations are gone. The best of the roses shipped in is still Mrs. Russell^ with some consignments of Ophelia, Sunburst and Killarney. Home- grown Maman Cochet, Kaiserin and Radiance have helped to fill the gaps, but the mainstay for the present lies in gladioli, gentians and tuberoses. Texas has been supplying the bulk of these, although some good gladioli have been available from local sources. The local crop of tuberoses promises to be. small this year and has barely started moving. There has been a considerable vogue of Shasta daisies this season; the crop is now virtually ended. Field and house work, especially the former, have been hampered by the ex- tremely hot weather. The active de- mand last season for the sweet olive has induced some work towards increas- ing stock. The same is true of Ficus elastica. Aspidistras and some other stock in previous years imported from Belgium, together with many varieties of palms, are now cultivated success- fully by local houses and the future in this direction seems to be optimistic. The main efforts of growers now cen- ter on chrysanthemums. The early va- rieties, cultivated to meet the heavy All Saints' day trade, are coming on nicely, but her? and there the florist is faced with loss through the ravages of the white ant. The root aphis is causing considerable damage to asters and the crop at jtresent seems not by any man- ner of means so satisfactory as last year's. Various Notes. Dedicatory services in connection with the memorial grove of live oaks, planted in Audubon park to perpetuate the memories of the New Orleans lads who died in the great war, were held July 4. To date sixty-one trees have been planted. Each tree will bear a bronze tablet engraved with the name of a dead soldier. The annual meeting of the New ^^^' Jolt 17, 1919. The Florists^ Review 17 leans Horticultural Society is set for July 17, with the election of officers as a part of the program. Walter Harris, of Wertheimer Bros., New York, has been in the city during the last few days. E. F. INDIANAPOLIS, IND. The Market. Business continues good for summer- time. A few decorations are still in de- mand and funeral work has been a fair item. Stock is in good supply, although local roses are an exception. These have been scarce and practically all those available are shipped in. Carnations are inferior. Qladioli are more plentiful, but the price remains high — $5 and $6 per hundred. Snapdragons are good and are fairly abundant. A few asters and dahlias have put in an appearance, but in no great quantity. A miscellaneous variety of summer stock is offered, in- cluding cornflowers, coreopsis, baby's breath, calendulas and some statice. Various Notes. 0. E. Steinkamp, Herman Young, Carl Sonnenschmidt, Charles Pahud and Len Elder were in Muncie last week, attend- ing the meeting of the hail insurance company. Anders Basmussen is off on a fishing trip. Warren Huckleberry, of North Ver- non, and Fred Heinl, of Terre Haute, visited in the city last week. The Circle Flower Store has an un- usual window display that attracts every passer-by. A fountain and a miniature rustic old mill are prominent in a quaint rustic setting. Wandering Jew, ivy and other vines intertwine over the bank of the little stream, in which goldfish flit about. The latter add a touch of life and color. This store had several wed- ding decorations last week. H. C. Heileman, of the M. Rice Co., and L. Gueltig, of New Albany, were callers last week. Bert Hitz and family will motor to the lakes this week. E. E. T. FITT8BUBOH. The Market. During the last week business condi- tions have been comparatively sober, and on the whole the glut is pretty well over. Gladioli, which continue to be "the" flower, are more plentiful and a little higher in prices, which run from $4 to $8 per hundred, according to qual- ity. Carnations, which are plentiful, remain at $2 per hundred straight. Club Meeting. The July meeting of the Pittsburgh Florists' and Gardeners' Club, in the auditorium of Carnegie library, north side, was the final session of the season. The proposed change in the by-laws was not adopted, but carried over until the next session, in September. John Ba- der, who moved to Oregon some years ago and who is the only honorary mem- ber of the club, was present and gave "a most interesting and instructive talk on "Vegetation in Oregon." Instead of the usual midsummer picnic at Walnut beach, Sewickley, those present decided to have an automobile excursion in Oc- tober, visiting some of the principal commercial greenhouses in western Karl p. Baum. H. O. Bramm. O. M. Beotley. A. J. McNutt. Four Lhre Leaders in the Tennessee Trade at the Knozville Outing. Pennsylvania. Edward J. McCallum was appointed chairman of a committee of his selection to arrange for the outing. Home from France. James and William Biley and Thomas Keleher, all from the cut flower depart- ment of the McCallum Co., have arrived home from France. David Box, of the greenhouse force, has also returned, leaving only two of the firm's employees in the service. One of the latter, Her- schel Williams, is still in France, while Marcelle Morgoot, who was sent with the regular army to Alaska, was at Cape Nome at last report. Bugler Frank P. SmoUer has returned from demobilization at Camp Dix and is again located on the north side with Walter A. Faulk. Mr. SmoUer spent two years in service and during his overseas experience was gassed. Although he was unable to use his voice for two weeks, Mr. Smoller kept out of a hos- pital, fearing to become permanently de- tached from his comrades of the l27th Field Artillery, belonging to the 28th Division. Donald Fowler has resumed his posi-_ tion as shipping clerk with Scobie &' Parker, having returned after a year's service. Various Notes. Theodore P. Langhans and his son, Oliver H. Langhans, left Saturday morn- ing, July 12, for a two weeks' muskel- lunge fishing trip in the Canadian lake territory north of Toronto. Mr. Lang- hans, who has been one of the most en- thusiastic exponents of the war and victory garden movement, is rejoicing over the fact that Pittsburgh is first in the records of products. Both the war garden and the later and lusty victory garden had their origin in Pittsburgh. Out of the vacant lot garden, which was inaugurated here years ago through the patronage of the Chamber of Commerce, the war gardens were started. Anthony W. Smith, Jr., was the chair- man of the Botary Club committee in charge of the automobile trip and out- ing at West View park July 10 for the 600 wounded soldiers at the Parkview hospital. George J, Ball and wife, of Glen El- lyn, 111., stopped to see Theodore Lang- hans last week. Mr. and Mrs. Ball are motoring across the Allegheny moun- tains to New York in their Moline- Knight. Mr. Ball was surprised to learn how rapid was the rise in altitude out of Pittsburgh, nearly 2,200 feet in the first eighty miles. George B. Telfair, manager of the re- tail department of Scobie & Parker, ex- pects to leave shortly to spend a month 's vacation at Alexandria Bay-on-the-St. Lawrence. Mr. Telfair will be accom- panied by his family. Mr. and Mrs. De Forest W. Ludwig expect to leave next week to visit Mrs. Ludwig 's parents, at Meyersdale, Pa. Mr. Ludwig and his brother, Edward Earl Ludwig, attended the half-century anniversary of their alma mater, Cor- nell University, spending several days in Ithaca. E. E. S. Adolph Donart. Adolph Donart, of Coeur d'Alene, Idaho, died June 29. Mr. Donart was manager of the Donart Greenhouses, at Coeur d'Alene, and owner of the House of Flowers, in Spokane, Wash. He was buried July 1 at Coeur d'Alene. A number of Spokane florists attended the funeral and presented a large and beau- tiful floral piece and several pillows in remembrance of their fellow tradesman. B. W.

Grow it good; that's where the money lies. Lock up the nicotine extract — it is a deadly poison. Coal is cheaper in the United States than in any other country. The beetle tackles asters like a sum- mer girl and a chocolate sundae. William F. Gude and Mrs. Gude, of Washington, are at Banff Springs hotel, Banff, Alberta. Nobody ever grew stock too good to be sold at a profitable figure; it's poor stock that doesn't pay. Freight and express rates have got to go up again unless wages and other things come down. What do you think of the prospect ? Recent cables are to the effect that Paper Whites are not to be bought at Ollioules, that all the crop is in the hands of exporters who are oversold and that the percentage of small bulbs will be high. If "New Man," J. J. F. and others who send anonymous inquiries to The Review would sign their names and ad- dresses, it would be possible to answer, in the paper if thej' are subscribers or by mail if a stamp is enclosed. With only one or two exceptions, rose growers in the middle west, who were the first to plunge in it, still consider Mrs. Charles Russell the best rose that has come into general cultivation, while it has become the big special variety on the Pacific coast and still gains in favor along the Atlantic, whence it came. As a sum- mer rose it has done more than any other variety to keep business going through the heated term. If you are a buyer of lil}- bulbs you possibly received, some months ago, a circular oflfer of 7 to 9 giganteums at $65 per thousand. It is only of interest be- cause now a New York dealer throws out the suggestion that, at the rate the market is rising, by the time delivery can be made, 7 to 9'8 will bo soiling at $250 to $300 per thousand, and 9 to 11 's at $500! Those are double the figures thought of a fortnight or so ago. The fact that few people are buying coal now means that the rush for it at the eleventh hour will be the greater. So long as the rising tide of easy spend- ing meets no check there seems no possi- bility of producing too many flowers. Chadwick chrysanthemum has lost none of its popularity with the passing of ' the years, if one may judge by the in- quiries for stock. Even at this late date for benching, growers are in unsuccessful quest of cuttings or 2% -inch plants. With the resumption of dealings with Germany it again becomes possible to im- port valley pips, but there is no informa- tion as to the quantity which will be available this fall. It probably is not large. The growers in the Hamburg dis- trict have had no export market worth speaking of the last three years. DO YOU SELL BIBDSf So often are inquiries made concern- ing birds as a side line in flower stores that The Review would like to hear from those of its readers who have had experientffe in this respect. What steps did you %&ke to introduce the sale of birds? 'Wlittt was your success, and how do yoii account for it? BETAIL BUYING HEAVY. That the general public is in an opti- mistic mood that bodes well for the flo- rists this coming season is indicated by the report of heavy purchases at retail, summed up in Dun's review as follows: * ' No one now hesitates to buy. This statement sums up a change in the trade situation in the last few weeks which has had far-reaching effects on indus- tries and on all channels of distribution. Retail demand is broad and undiscrim- inating, the higher grades of merchan- dise moving as freely as the cheaper, and merchants reporting their chief dif- ficulty to be the obtaining of goods in suflScient quantities to meet the calls of customers. Wholesale distribution is ahead of the large figures of last summer. There is a pronounced dispo- sition on the part of buyers to cover needs for next spring, but present deliv- eries are given precedence and there is growing prospect of shortage in many lines in the early part of 1920. The or- ders of the large mail houses are run- ning twenty-five to thirty-five per cent ahead of the corresponding time in 1918." OBEEimOUSE LABOB. The war forced nearly all growers to operate their greenhouses with less help than they had been accustomed to em- ploy and, now that the war is over, they are not increasing the staffs to the for- mer sizp. Of course the wages are high- er than ever, but it looks as though em- ployees and employers all have awak- ened to the idea that both lose through there being too many men on a place. A given amount of glass can pay about so much in wages; the money can go to a few good workers, or to a larger number of semi-idlers. The more good stock he can produce, the more a grower earns for his em- ployer and the more he can ask for him- self. He should not be an idler, or want idlers on the place. Of all the lessons the war taught labor, none exceeds in value those that have caused workmen generally to abandon the old ideas of restriction of output. Only the radicals who are seeking to revolutionize society continue to hold to the belief that in- creased production is wholly for the benefit of the employer. The level- headed workers are spreading the gos- pel that we all must produce in order to live. They have mastered the most im- portant fundamental, which is that tlie employee cannot share in what is not produced. It is dangerous to cultivate the idea that by doing less one can have more. The more men it takes to main- tain the maximum production, the less there is in it for each man. BOWLINO AT DETBOIT The bowling tournament to be held in connection with the S. A. F. convention at Detroit is expected to be an event of importance, of more importance than any previous tournament, thinks the local committee. Conditions are most favorable and the Detroit committee, headed by Chairman Joseph Streit, is making extraordinary efforts for the success of the contests. Requests have been sent out for trophies for the various games to be rolled. Donations, says Chairman Streit, may be a purse, merchandise, or what- ever the donor chooses, and should be sent to him, at 1366 McClennan avenue, Detroit, Mich. In order that the committee may com- plete the program, it is hoped that response to their request will be made quickly. "YOU CAN QUOTE ME." A man does not recommend a thing to his friend unless he is sure the friend will be as well pleased with it as he was. Like this: We sold out on ferns on the first appearance of the ad in The Review. For quick results, use The Review; you can quote me If you lilte. — W. C. Knowles, of Knowles & Wald, Toledo, O., July 6, 1019. If you hear a man complain of the cost of advertising you can be pretty certain he spends a good bit of money elsewhere than in The Review. OHICAaO. The Market. Typical midsummer conditions pre- vail. There is not the slightest differ- ence between the business now being done and the usual midsummer trade. There is a slump every time the mer- cury goes above 90 degrees and a prompt revival as soon as the lake breeze comes in. Country demand is far more steady than the city business and the shipping accounts for a larger percentage of the average day's sales than it did when business was heavier. On the whole, sales are running a little heavier than they did last year at this time, and it should be remembered that last summer was a particularly good one. The supply of stock is about at the minimum. It may be lighter later, when the first crop of roses has been cut by the growers who now are loading fhe market with short-stemmed flowers, but by that time there probably will be larger supplies in other lines. The sum- mer cuts of Beauties are about gone: there still are a few good Beauties, but much less than in recent weeks. The supply of long roses is not greater than the demand.

WE ARB CLOSED ALL DAY SUNDAY the favorite, with Columbia second, but with Premier rapidly forging to the front. Some houses report a special de- mand for Sunburst and others say there is a good call for Milady in spite of the tradition that red is not wanted in hot weather. There are few white roses now on this market and they command a small premium. This market never is entirely out of carnations, some of the outdoor stock and then the earliest of the new indoor stock overlapping the disappearing crop, but the supply at present is in- significant. Nor are there many asters. The long drought has practically fin- ished off the early crop; if there are any asters this year, they will be shipped in or will come from irrigated fields. Oladioli are much more abundant than they were last week and the price has fallen to a point where they can be used with freedom. There is a marked improvement in the gladioli this year; it isn't all America now. A dozen or more of the good, new sorts are avail- able in quantity. The quality, in spite of the drought, is excellent and work made with present-day gladioli is high- ly pleasing to the public. O er L T^e^vXe^s \w bwp'pWs ^Chicagp I/L 30 EAST RANDOLPH STREET There still are a few peonies in cold storage, but not enough to cut any figure in the market; besides, peonies that have been in the freezer for a month are not safe to ship. Large cat- tleyas still command fancy prices, but the demand has subsided to the point where small-flowered varieties do not find ready purchasers. The supply of valley is so small that 12 cents is asked for the best. The small supply of sweet peas is a problem for the wholesalers; in the high heat they find it difficult to get the growers presentable returns. The market is full of feverfew and gypsophila. Easter lilies are coming in quantity from a few growers. Greens are abundant. Budlong's Eoses. In common with most of the other rose growers, A. H.

Eussell, Milady, Sunburst and Ophelia are the big four. Sunburst has gained steadily in favor, a nouse of it being added each year for the last three seasons. More space is being given also to Ophelia. Columbia also gets more space and Premier gets a trial. All the increase in bed room for other varieties is at the expense of the Killarney family, which Kenneth Budlong, who has charge of the grow- ing, expects to see entirely displaced at no distant date. Double White Killar- ney, the Rhode Island strain which stays white in summer, is well liked, but the demand for white is not strong and calls principally for short stems and the lowest prices.

The wholesale market during the last week was in fairly good condition, while the demand was exceptionally good, considering the time of year.

There promises to be a heavy crop of these this season. Orchids, valley and Easter lilies are scarce in this market at present. There is an abundance of outdoor stock in everything seasonable.

The monthly meeting of the Florists' Club took place July 10 in Forest park. The members were the guests of the park department. The meeting was held under the big shade trees near the World's Fair pavilion. There were forty members present. After the regular opening proceedings had been disposed of, the chair called for reports of the various committees. The trustees reported everything in readiness for the picnic to be held at Bamona park July 17. Chairman Bour- det reported that the publicity commit- tee was in splendid shape to begin fall advertising. Edward Steitz filed application for membership and W. F. Thomas was elected to membership. E. W. Guy, who resigned recently, was elected to honorary membership. Under the head of new business, the nomination of officers took place and the following members were placed in nomination for the various offices: For president, W. J. Pilcher and W. A. Eowe; for vice-president, H. G. Berning and A. S. Cerny; for secretary, J. J. Beneke; for treasurer, W. C. Smith; for the 3-year term as trustee, Oscar Buff, F. H. Weber, W. H, Kruse and Paul Eedan. W. J. Pilcher, of the transportation committee, reported the route and the fare for the trip to Detroit for those who will attend the S. A. F. convention and that at least twenty-five would make the trip. W. C. Smith invited the club to hold its August meeting at the greenhouses of the W. C. Smith Wholesale Floral Co., in Kirkwood. The invitation was accepted with thanks. The meeting then adjourned and the members were taken in hand by Super- intendent E. Strehle, who led 'them to a shady nook in the park, where lunch and refreshments were served. Before leaving, the members gave a rousing vote of thanks to Mr. Strehle and Mr. Moritz for their afternoon's entertainment. The next meeting will be August 14, when the election of officers will take place. Various Notes. The St. Louis Wholesale Cut Flower Co. held a stockholders' meeting July 8 in the salesrooms, at 1460 Pine street. All the officers who served last year were reelected. The new building, now in course of erection, will be ready by fall. It is expected that the florists who will go from here to attend the S. A. F. convention will number thirty-five by starting time. The committee has de- cided upon a daylight trip^ leaving here Monday morning, August 18, via the Wabash railroad. A special car will be provided. The fare is $18.71 one way, including the war tax. The Florist Demands TRUE QUAUTY McCray Refrigerators are, and have long been in use by Florists who understand the value of qual- ity—who know that McCray Refrigerators have True Quality inbuilt in them. For a third of a century McCray Refrigerators have been built on this basis. Thousands of satisfied owners are proof that McCray Refrigerators combine convenience and design with sound principles of construction and that first-class materials and workmanship enter into the McCray. Florist Refrigerators are best because they are made to conserve flowers, and at the same time give proper display to floral goods. In appearance the McCray will make any florist's store more attractive. Viewed solely from the selling end, the McCray has superior qualities — for it aids in selling flowers and at the same time puts a stop to waste from spoilage.

GLADIOLI THE BEST-ANY COLOR-ANY QUANTITY A Good Assortment of White and Colored Flowers PLEASE ORDER EARLY 1225 Race St. PHILADELPHIA The Market. Mrs. Charles Eussell scored her first point on her western rival this week when she came through the broil of the triple holiday in much better shape. A week of cool weather has toned up the stock that is left, but it shows the effect of the hot wave. There is less stock coming into the market. It is, for the most part, readily sold. Prices are lower on ordinary stock than a week ago. With the first heavy crop of gladioli over, the market is taking the slightly lesser production well. There are sharp contrasts in gladioli. For instance, on UentloB The Review when ron write. one and the same day some gladioli brought $10, some $8, some $6, some $4 and some could not be sold at any price at all. Those that brought $10 were well grown flowers of Panama and Schwaben. Those that were unsalable were poorly grown flowers of old-fashioned varieties in mixture. There is food for thought. Valley is the surprise of the market. The blockade has only just been lifted and there is a little valley, not enough to warrant confidence in placing an or- der— confidence that it will be filled. Yet there is a little valley to be had now and then. The price is not a sub- ject for conversation and will not be found on this market's list. Early asters are coming in rather slowly. They sell quite readily at prices that are better than usual. The quality is only fair. A few early dahlias have made their appearance. Perhaps the summer market merits dissertation to be clearly understood. It differs from the market at other seasons of the year in the difficulty of getting together. Alertness is necessary to get the good stock to fill the good orders. Contrari- wise, alertness is also important to get good orders for the good stock. Today a hundred cattleyas are needed at $1 each, or several dozen extra select Rus- sell at a quarter apiece. It is not every day these orders can be had. Quite likely the stock for them could not be had every day. The summer market is one of great uncertainty as compared with the summer market of years ago. It is surprisingly active. The Work of Mr. Beavis. The death of Joseph Beavis at the age of 75 years, announced last week, re- moves from our midst one of the most interesting men in the commercial world of floriculture in this city. Thorough, hard working, conservative, Joseph Beavis built up a reputation as a suc- cessful grower that will endure for many long years to come. Mr. Beavis' idea of growing plants under glass was that the grower should know at all times exactly the conditions surrounding the stock under his care, aiming to give them the best of everything that lay in his power. In the old days his pot plants were highly prized in all the city shops where he dealt, while later his roses were no less esteemed in the com- mission house where they were sold each day. To accomplish this object, Mr. Beavis restricted the size of his place, erecting and operating only as much glass as he himself, with the assistance, as time went on, of his son, could look after personally. Twenty years ago, when the land became valuable, he sold his place in Tioga, removing to his pres- ent place on Lime Kiln pike, near Haines street, where he built a well equipped range of glass. He was thoroughly con- servative, preferring to grow standard varieties of recognized merit rather than novelties. He was especially suc- cessful in the all-important timing of crops. Mr. Beavis was of a retiring nature. He was rarely seen at gather- ings of his brother florists. In the Show Boom. Raymond Brunswick had been prom- ising for some time that he had some- thing to show upstairs. When the day arrived Mr. Brunswick remarked quite casually that it might be interesting to spend a few minutes above stairs just to keep in touch with what was going on. It was interesting. A large, well lighted second story room contained long rows of tables filled with a variety of supplies, mostly baskets. The pleasing part of the display that was brought home at a glance was the absence of crowding. Each article was given suffi- cient space for display. The most inter- esting exhibit was a group of tumbler baskets, marked "Riceco," a name that appeared to signify the fixed determina- tion of the introducers to back their novelty. Riceco is a rustic tumbler Jolt 17, 1919.

Santa Oruz, OaL — E. S. Biggard, who is now employed by the Seabright Bulb Co., and who has been a greenhouse grower for fifteen years, intends to go into business for himself soon. Seattle, Wudi. — Just as J. O. Hankins, proprietor of the Seattle Pottery, was catching up with orders and getting in shape to push the red pot business, July 3 his factory burned to the ground; loss about $10,000. But nothing discourages Mr. Hankins; he will rebuild at once. LOS ANGELES. Tbe Market. Shipping business was a little better last week, owing to the dry, hot weather in neighboring territory, drying up local stock. The shortage of water in so many places makes the Los Angeles growers feel happy in their bounteous supply. Even in Montebello, where so many flower growers and nurserymen are located and the water supply is usually plentiful, the waterworks au- thorities are warning growers to be careful and there is not the usual pres- sure. In fact, owing to the dry winter, the water line is low everywhere in southern California, with the heaviest demand to come. From both coast and foothill fields outdoor carnations are coming in better shape than could be expected for the season and they ship well. Retailers are quiet, funeral work being the only outlet for flowers. Several coming af- fairs promise well, but at present it is dull and everyone who can get away is taking the opportunity to get a change and rest at the mountains or seashore. Boses are scarce, as the growers are off crop and replanting. The qual- ity of the flowers arriving is only me- dium. There is a big demand for fern stock, both finished plants and young stock for growing on, but this cannot be filled, the growers being practically sold out of large plants and holding on to their young stock. Various Notes. Arthur Gleave, of Gleave's Flower Shop, Santa Barbara, was in the city last week looking up stock. He reported a busy time with decorations during the fiesta and looks forward to an extra good season. Bert Harris, formerly of the Darling staff and now with MacRorie-McLaren Co., of San Francisco, was in town last week. There is joy in the establishment of S. Murata & Co. these days and Mr. Murata is packing around a big smile. The reason is that Mrs. Murata, who is still in Japan, has presented him with a son. Both mother and child are doing well. Mrs. Murata and family are ex- pected to return to Los Angeles shortly. C. B. Knickman, representing Mc- Hutchison & Co., New York, arrived in town last week. He came over the southern route and will go north from here. Before returning east he will probably cross the Pacific on a business trip to Japan. W. Armacost & Co. have received a solid carload of baskets from the east. This is said to be the first full carload to be shipped to a florist on the coast. Anyway, it shows the enterprise of this up-to-date firm, which is rapidly ad- vancing along all lines. Already the Fourth street quarters are getting too small and there is talk of a removal to a larger place. Fred Westrom, manager at Wright's Flower Shop, left last week for a month 's auto trip, taking in Sacramento and the Feather river section. He and Mrs. Westrom will have their machine remodeled so as to provide for sleeping accommodations. A. Seki, of Seki Bros., West Fourth street, left last week for a trip to Japan. Walter Polder, of Polder Bros., Mon- tebello, left with a party of friends for an auto trip through the Yosemite. Fred Sperry, of the L. A. Floral Co., is back on the job at the store and W. L. Morris is away for several weeks. Large shipments of strawflowers for the east have been going out lately. H. B. Bichards. SPOKANE, WASH. Tlie Market. The stock of carnations is heavy, with but little demand. Boses are scarce, but the shortage is not causing any stock to be shipped in, as other flowers are taking their place in practically all funeral work. Various Notes. J. F. Austin, who has been general manager of the Spokane Greenhouses, Inc., for the last nine years, has sold his interest to J. Finck.

SAN FJIANCISCO. The Market. With the summer vacation season in full swing, business has slackened up to some extent. Many florists state that this period of the year surpasses that of 1918. Stock was still plentiful and the quality seemed to be slightly better than the week before, but buying was light in wholesale depots and retailers reported few large orders. Outdoor flowers were in fairly good condition. The gladiolus crop is holding out well and within a week some of the later varieties are expected. Dahlias are not up to standard so far. Hot weather a few weeks ago spoiled some of the early blooms and only a few good specimens were noticed in the market last week. Cut hydrangeas were in full crop, but the quality seemed to be inferior to that of last year. A few blue blooms of excellent quality were seen, but for the most part they were rather small and had short stems. Roses were plentiful and not high in price, but the condition of the blooms was not of the best even for this time of the year. While white chrysanthe- mums made their appearance several weeks ago in small numbers, the first regular cut of the smaller blooms was in the market the early part of last WI ARK THK LARaKST QIIOWKRS OP ROSES -PORTLAND ROSES Suptrtor Qnality— Choice VuletlM Sell Bettor— Grow Better Ask for Price Lists.

A few boxwoods were picked up during the early part of last week, but the specimens remaining are badly burned by the hot weather. Various Notes. In spite of the vacation season, which is taking so many people out of town, Mrs. Copeland, of Sutter street, re- ported a satisfactory business since the first of the month. Miss Eecardie Lee Murray, 894 Geary street, is on her vacation. The E. W. McLellan Co. reported a good shipping business. Henry Avan- sino says that interior orders are com- ing through in steadily increasing quan- tity. The growers who are consolidated in the United Flower & Supply Co., of 448 Bush street, anticipate an excep- tionally fine crop of asters and chrysan- themums this year. The large varieties of asters, fully the size of ordinary chrysanthemums, are proving great fa- vorites in the eastern markets and the demand is rapidly growing each year through the interior of this state, as well as in markets at a greater distance from the local depot. Early Frost chrys- anthemums have started coming in, and another week will see Golden Glow in the market. A fine selection of snapdragons, yel- low, red and salmon-pink, were offered by Domoto Bros, last week. This firm also had a good cut of asters and chrys- anthemums. mmmmmmmmmmmmi FREESIA PURITY NEW CROP READY NOW.

STEELE'S PANSY GARDENS PORTLAND, OREGON At the nurseries of Enomoto & Co., in Bedwood CJity, fine crops of asters and chrysanthemums are nearing maturity. In spite of the large acreage of these specialties planted this year, there is no fear of an oversupply. The shipping qualities of the flowers have long made them favorites with out-of-town trade. C. Kooyman states that he is well satisfied with the bulb market and is '-leaning up nicely on cut stock. Some good Statice latifolia is carried by Mr. Kooyman. A. Belli, of the Art Floral Co., left lor a two weeks' vacation in Mendocino ''ounty. Joseph Scatania, also of this 'inn, recently returned from his annual outing, which he spent in the historical Sonoma valley. An interesting floral decoration for the home-coming of a prominent local war-worker was carried out by Joseph 's, employing American Beauty roses and blue hydrangeas. A floral Croix de Guerre about four feet in height divided honors with an American fl^, made en- tirely of flowers.

Members of the trade in Europe have of late much discussed the possibilities of protecting the rights of plant raisers in the manner that inventors are pro- tected by patents and authors by copy- rights. British growers are attempting the draft of a statute to present to Par- liament. At the Horticultural Congress, held in Paris in June, one of the principal ques- tions discussed was that of the regis- tration of novelties and the protection of the rights of the raisers. To many, the problem seemed insoluble. There appeared to them to be no means of securing the rights of a producer in a plant, in the same way that they are secured to the producer of a work of art or literature. The congress recalled what had already been attempted, namely, the registration of novelties in a list, national or international, with the description of the plant, and the issue of a certificate to the raiser, and thought the matter might well be studied by a special commission. The demand was formulated that the names of plants sub- mitted for award should in every case be followed by the name of the raiser or introducer. On the proposition of M. Rivoire, of Lyons, the congress re- solved that a national bureau for the study of novelties should be created, with a sufliciency of funds for the pur- pose.

At this convention action will be taken on a recommendation that the dues in the society be increased to $5 per year, and that the life membership fee be increased from $25 to $50. Only members in good standing can become life members; therefore it is obvious that any applying for this membership must be clear on the books for the 1919 dues. It goes without saying that life memberships taken out now will fore- stall any action emanating from the con- vention. The local committees in Detroit are actively at work, and, it is understood, have laid out a program for the enter- tainment of their guests which will be highly pleasing to all. John Young, Sec'y.

The secretary has sent out to his com- plete mailing list the following letter to the trade: Dear Sir: With this letter yon will find an application form for membership in our society. Why not complete the same and enroll your name with the names of the other progressive florists of the country? Better inducements to do BO can hardly be set out than those appearing in the article, also enclosed, "Why Should I Join the S. A. F.?" After you have done this, why not arrange to attend our thirty-fifth annual convention and trade exhibition, to be held in Detroit, Mich., August 10 to 21, and in addition, as a guest enjoy the day of entertainment -which your brother florists in Detroit will provide August 22? Take with you your wife, daughter or other mem- bers of your family — all, if you so choose. See the great trade exhibition and examine the latest productions in greenhouse construction, boilers. fittings, supplies, retail florists' supplies, such as baskets and the other hundred and one things in which design is kept up-to-date, as well as a host of other auxiliaries. The trade exhibition is an education to those who are "keeping shop" or operating greenhouses. If you would like further information, just write to the secretary. Cordially welcoming you. Yours very truly, John Young, Sec'y. V. S.— On the other side of this letter is a list of the firms who at this date have arranged to make comprehensive exhibits. There will be additions to the list, of course, before the exhi- bition opens. The Trade ExWbition. No effort is being spared to make this the banner convention in the history of the society.

At this convention action will be taken on a recommendation that the dues in the society be increased to $5 per year, and that the life membership fee be increased from $25 to $50. Only members in good standing can become life members; therefore it is obvious that any applying for this membership must be clear on the books for the 1919 dues. It goes without saying that life memberships taken out now will fore- stall any action emanating from the con- vention. The local committees in Detroit are actively at work, and, it is understood, have laid out a program for the enter- tainment of their guests which will be highly pleasing to all. John Young, Sec'y.

Have you never received thanks from some cordial individual for the reminder, which perhaps has saved him from criticism, even censure? Such happenings are common throughout the trade. Our slogan, "Say It with Flowers," is now deeply rooted. Let us see that its roots suffer not for want of nourishment. Other Trades Raise Large Funds. It seems to be easier in almost any other line to raise a publicity fund than in the florists' trade. The Florida growers of citrous fruits made a big suc- cess of their eflforts last year to increase the sale of their products, and they are not what might be termed a large body. Through their exchange, which under- takes work similar to that of our promo- tion bureau, it has been unanimously voted to make the assessment for pub- licity for the coming season as much as ^ cents per box on oranges and 5 cents BOSTON-BECKER'S ' Send tia Tonr telegrams.

This assessment is expected to produce a fund largely in excess of $100,000. Their California brethren are pushing forward a contin- uation of their eflforts to establish " Sun- kist" products on a scale which makes the Florida efforts seem small indeed. These fruit growers know what they are about, and are working on experience. Every grower contributes to his fund. And every florist, without exception, should contribute to his fund. Over 1,600 of the thinkers in the trade have already done so. Get busy with your think tank, Mr. Non-subscriber. There is a space awaiting your name on the honor roll. Can you, in your own inter- ests, refuse to fill it as your conscience dictates? Additional Subscriptions.

Ira G. Marvin. iro.K'^'r*- BAIiTIMORE. The Market. The market is about normal for this season. There are plenty of roses to be had, but they are all of the midsum- mer quality, small and oflf-color. Gla- dioli are beginning to arrive in good supply and the quality is good. One lot of about 5,000 that arrived lately was cleaned up fast. There is plenty of miscellaneous stock, but, owing to the recent extremely hot weather, this is all of poor quality. The demand holds good and is for stock for funeral work and hospitals. There is a little rush in all of the wholesale houses for a few hours in the morning, but the rest of the day is more or less a holiday. It is just the same old condition that every florist has been through many a time. Various Notes.

WEAVER Florist in Rotary & Sons, and, to my surprise, found the store without a customer. Mrs. Hill was the only clerk in the store and she was sitting down with nothing to do. To my inquiry, "Where is everyone!" she replied: "The clerks are taking a vacation and it seems the customers are doing the same today." It was a treat to mo to find this lady, who knows the florists and their business so well, at leisure for a half-hour's chat. To my question, "How has business been this summer?" she replied that business seemed to be undergoing a complete change. At one time they had been obliged to depend on funeral work en- tirely for summer business, but this year they had been doing a good deal of counter trade as well. Their receipts this year had nearly equaled those of the winter season, and without any specially large orders. I asked the rea- son for it. The only reason she could give was that there is a class of people now using flowers that never used them before. The old customers, who are in the habit of leaving town during the summer, are all away as usual, and a large majority of summer patrons are people who are not so well known to EGGERT N.

From one of Mrs. Hill's ac- quaintance with the flower-buying pub- lic of Baltimore, her statement is sig- nificant. During the war there was a large number of people who got into the habit of using flowers and from all appearances they intend to keep this habit up. At John Cook's store conditions were about the same, and yet they told me their general summer trade was away above former years, that there had been no specially large orders, and still, at the end of each week, the receipts were surprising. When I asked for my old friend, John Cook, they told me he was in the best of health, that he is able to make a round of his range each day and advise his son, who is in charge, just what to do. They are planting the en- tire range this year in young stock and this means a lot of work. CENTRALIA, ILL. J. W. ROSS We serve the following Illinois towns, direct train service: Mt.

As I sit and write this, I cannot help thinking if Bob could hear, as I do in my rounds, all the nice things that are remembered and said of him, it would do him more good than any medicine.

' And now comes word from California Uiat the freesia crop is turning out smaller than expected, due to dry weather, with the probability that seventy-five per cent will be an average delivery. Of course prices are going up. Those who have an ear to the ground bear sounds that are thought to be in- dications of strong competition in Japan for possession of the season's limited crops of giganteum bulbs. At least three American importers have direct repre- sentatives on the scene, but their presence is not the cause of excitement; it merely adds to the gayety of nations. You can trust the J^p to get what his goods will liring. Up to the present time the Consolidated ('lassification Committee has taken no action on the proposal to prohibit the shipment of onion sets in bags and the Cook County Onion Set Shippers feel that their objections to the proposed rule, as voiced by Captain Balph B. Howe at the hearing in Chicago May 27, have carried weight. All that the shippers ' spokesman asked was that the classification be un- changed, permitting tlie use of bags or other containers as in the past. Capt. TIowo believes that the failure to take ac- tion within the time that has elapsed in- dicates that probably no action will be taken in the matter, which will be a vic- tory for the shippers, whose combined shipments aggregate forty million pounds |>er year, with an estimated value of .t2.2r)0,000. GERMAN SEEDS MAY COME. •Inly 11 the allies and the United States announced the raising of the blockade of Germany, with unrestricted trading between tlie countries except as t(i a few articles to he controlled by the re|)aratioiis coniiuission. German seeds ajfaiii are available, after four years. At the rec?nt Chicago convention of ilic American Seed Trade Association an +4T()rt was made to secure discussion looking to possible action along the lines of the British association, which has pledged its members not to deal in German seeds for three years, but no [•rogress was made. It seemed that a ijood many of the seed trade feel that, fur themselves, they will do as little businc^ss as possible with Germany, but thai there are a few items they may need and th*y will handle them if they arc not to be had elsewhere.

The Rorists^ Review 77 Hew Eariy-flowerin{ or Winter-blooming GIANT PANSIES An entirely new and distinct strain of Pansies. The main advantage of these new Pansies over all hitherto existing Pansies is the extreme earliness of flowermg and the unusual hardiness, whicji enables them to withstand quite severe Winters, and to bloom right on into the summer. Sown at the same time as other Pansies, they begin flowering the early part of March or as soon as the snow is off the ground, mauy times having four or five large flowers to a plant, when all other Pansies are only showing buds. The flowers are large, well formed and fragrant. They are highly recommended for Au{Timn planting on graves, and for very early bedding, as well as for early cut flowers. 14. WINTER SUN.

Of $167,846 worth of nursery stock imported during the month of April, $137,248 came from Holland. France was second with $15,255. The quarantine by the Federal Horti- cultural Board prevents nurserymen tak- ing a great deal of interest in the an- nouncement, made July 11, that the blockade of Germany had been lifted. The low-price customer is not going to buy again from the nurseryman whose poor stock died on his hands last year. He may be some one else 's sucker, but he won't be a steady patron for anybody. Planting of memorial trees is finding favor in various cities in this country. New Orleans dedicated a grove of sixty- one live oaks July 4, each bearing a bronze tablet for a soldier from that city who died during the war. D. S. Olson, who has charge of the forest service nursery at Hogan, Mont., is visiting nurseries in Minnesota, Wis- consin, Michigan and Illinois for the pur- pose of exchanging ideas. Mr. Olson will be at this for six weeks. He expects to visit fifteen nurseries. William A. Pktkeson, Chicago, re- cently has added a eoMidewble number of stone implements to the collection of Indian relics at the museum in the nurs- ery. The grounds were a favorite camp- ing spot in early times, and still show some of the old Indian trails. The Peter- son collection of Indian relics is said to be the largest in the middle west. NO FEAB OF RISING PRICES. We notice in the issue of The Re- view for June 12, in the Nursery News department, a paragraph reading: "The nursery trade can execute a quick about- face on occasions. Where a few years ago the cry was for higher prices, now there is fear that prices will go so high that the public will stop buying. ' ' We do not have any such fear, and do not think nurserymen in general who know the inward workings of the nurs- ery trade have such a fear. The greatest fear we have is that we shall not have the stock to furnish, irrespective of price. There is going to be a tremen- dous shortage in the nursery line for the next six or seven years, on account of conditions brought on by the war, and a great shortage of stock to plant, caused by weather conditions, etc. The growing of nursery stock has sel- dom been profitable to the grower, on ac- count of the many losses that occur over which he has no control. We feel that now is the time to get the nursery business on a business basis. We know from experience that people are willing to pay a good price for a good article, and that is what the business is going to hinge on in the future. Wilmer W. Hoopes. Thorough-thinking persons will agree with Mr. Hoopes that nurserymen who fear prices so high that they hinder buy- ing are dismayed at an empty bogy. Prices of nursery stock are not rising out of proportion to the prices of other commodities. So long as this continues true, the public will always have money to buy nursery stock, if they think the stock is worth the price.

A public hearing is called for August 9, at the office of the state department of agriculture, at Springfield> 111., on the proposed eradication from the state of Berberis vulgaris and Berberis vulgaris purpurea. Japanese barberry, Ber- beris Thunbergii, is not included, as it is harmless. Berberis vulgaris and its varieties are to be eradicated by the Illinois de- partment of agriculture, under the pro- posed ruling, because they are host plants of what is known as black-stem rust of wheat, Puccinia graminis, and their presence, says Director Charles Adkins, '^ tends to maintain and greatly ENGLISH LAUREL BT THE HUNDRED OR THOUSAND THE AUDUBON NURSERY | WILMINBTON.

At the entrance to the playground trees were planted for soldiers who had fallen; then came those in honor of former pupils of the school, and finally those for others who enlisted locally. In this way an avenue of 125 trees has been made to form a complete roll of honor which wiU stand for centuries. The ground was prepared by the school pupils, but the trees were planted by relatives or friends of the soldiers honored. The Queensland correspondent of the Australasian recently recorded the planting of 30,000 trees in Anzac park at the expense of a public-spirited citi- zen, 16,000 of them being in memory of soldiers who had died in the war. NEWARK, N. J. The Market. Although the midsummer dullness is on, business is fair for this time of the year. There have been a -few July wed- dings to help out. There is not much variety now. Carnations are a little cheaper than they have been, but they are rapidly passing for the season, and many of those coming into the market are not of extra good quality. Gladioli are fair, but somewhat scarce and quite high in price. Ferns are taking a prom- inent part in many window displays be- cause of the scarcity of flowers. Roses keep up fairly well for summer time. Various Notes. Frank Philips, of Philips Bros., is spending the month of July at North Asbury Park, on the New Jersey shore. He spends much time in casting for big sea fish. Alterations have been made in the store of the Washington Florist, 577 Broad street. B. B. M. Growers, Attention!

Y. Business has settled down to the usual summer routine. The exceptionally hot weather experienced the last week in June and the first week in July made everybody want to close up shop and hie to the mountains or seashore for a well deserved vacation. The Albany Florists' Club held its outing Thursday, July 10, at Frederick Goldring's place at Font Grove, near Slingerlands. Mr. Goldring has made this an annual aflfair for some few years and the florists show their appreciation of Mr. Goldring 's kindness and hos- pitality by turning out in good num- bers. Among the visitors was Walter Mott, of Benjamin Hammond, Inc., Beacon, N. Y. Full account of the out- ing appears under the head, "Albany Club Outing, ' ' in this issue. Jared S. Horton, proprietor of the Valley View Floral Co., Watervliet, N. Y., one of the newly elected members of the club, attended the outing. Mr. Horton has been conducting the busi- ness formerly owned by John Zimmer- man, and has met with great success, specializing in carnations and sweet peas. He ships his flowers to Albany, Troy and Schenectady. Edward Tracey, proprietor of the Rosery Flower Shop, 23 Steuben street, is spending two weeks at Lake Cham- plain with his family. The Albany Florists' Club will hold its annual clambake at the invitation of Fred Henkes, at Henkes ' grove, in New- tonville. The affair is to take place the latter part of August. George Nagengast has his two new houses well under way. The frame- work is now up and he expects to have the glass on within a few days. Mr. Nagenga.st is erecting these houses across the street from his present es- tablishment and on the corner of Wash- ington and Main avenues. H. M. NEWPORT, R. I. The Stewart Ritchie greenhouses fur- nished the potted plants and shrubs for the decorations at the birthday recep- tion of Rov. I. Harding Hughes in Mid- dletown recently. Mr. and Mrs. William G. Taylor have returned from Boston, where they at- tended the Massachusetts Horticultural Society's flower show and exhibited sweet peas, making eleven entries and receiving eleven first prizes.

Greenhouse Heating Subscribers are inyited to write the Editor of this Department with regard to any details of greenhouse heating that are not understood. When information is desired regarding the capacity of boil- ers, or the amount of radiation required for a greenhouse, the needed temperatures should be stated in the inquiry, as well as the amount of glass in the side walls, and the dimensions and general arrange- ment of the greenhouses. It is often help- ful, also, to have a sketch showing the location of the houses. SHORTAGE BESTS ON BUYERS. Fuel men lay the responsibility of a possible coal shortage next winter on the consumers, who, by not buying now, are holding up the production at the mines. Even if the mines were worked at the fullest capacity allowed by the scarcity of workers, there would not be facilities for storing an entire season's jhipply of coal in the store yards and at railroad terminals. What is there now must be moved into the consumers' bins before more can be produced. If buying now were as heavy as it has been in years of normal demand, the mines would be working at their great- est capacity in preparation for a year of unprecedented industrial activity. I^stead of that, mines which partially closed down when the mild weather re- duced the demand for fuel last winter ^re still working at that low rate of production. The operators feel no stimulation from the present little buy- ing to make the effort necessary to pro- cure the labor required, and, lacking the impulse which the consumers should give, continue at the low rate at which they have been working for the last six months. This phase of the fuel situation is one which consumers unfamiliar with the coal trade would not appreciate if it were not brought to their attention. Coal men wish to do so forcibly, in the hope that by making their purchases now, consumers will avert the famine which those at close range see daily more clearly ahead. CINCINNATI. The Market. Business is inclined to bo quiet, al- though some days it is excellent. There is not a large amount of stock in the market. Everything that is good sells fairly readily. Roses are in fair supply. Excellent American Beauties are coming in. Some Easter lilies are available. Both long and short rubrum lilies may be had. Asters are more plentiful than they were a week ago. They sell readily and bring good prices. Gladioli are finding a good market. Water lilies sell fairly well. Other offerings are snapdragons, daisies and candytuft. All greens find an excellent market. Various Notes. C. E. Critchell has been getting some splendid early asters from Federle, at Hamilton, O. Miss Clare Murphy has gone to Les Cheneaux islands on her vacation. The William Murphy Co. is finding a ready market for some choice American D ■ D aBDBDHaBDBnHnBDBDBDBOBDBD Heating and Cooling Systems The~inost modern establishments in this country are equipped with KROESCHELL Boilers and Refrigerating Systems. This highly effec- tive combination will make every dollar you spend do its utmost. D D ■ D ■ HEATING and COOLINQ are two branches of engineering on which we specialize for the greenhouse trade. Over thirty years have been devoted by us to the construction and designing of boilers and refrigerating apparatus. During this period we have furnished and installed heating and cool- ing systems for the most successful greenhouse men in this country. When in need of refrigeration investigate the Kroeschell System— its high efficiency and low cost of operation place the Kroeschell System of Refrigeration in the foremost rank for greenhouse use.

The Florists' Review 85 The Farnsworth Dnplex Boiler Feeder— front view of 3-inch machine, ahowing duplex recelvingr and delivery check valves. Florists Joining the Ranks of Farnsworth Boosters The Farnsworth Duplex Boiler Feeder is the latest triumph in steam plant engineering. The Double Action Pump — the Wonder Machine which returns condensation under pressure at a high temperature direct into the boiler with a continuous, automatic flow. While one chamber is receiving the hot condensate and is equalized with the heating system, the opposite chamber is deliver- ing into the boiler, which provides a continuous flow of condensation directly from your heating system into the boiler. MORE THAN 200,000 H. P. FARNSWORTH PUMPS WERE IN ACTION LAST YEAR, fighting the loss of heat units, coal and money. Now to Equip All the Florists Farnsworth Coal-savers The cost of coal was a serious problem for the florists last winter. It will be a problem this year. Get the most out of every ton of coal you buy by using the Farnsworth Closed System to handle your condensation. ARE "FARNSWORTH EQUIPPED" PLANTS SAVING COAL AND MONEY? Hundreds of installations prove the value of the Farnsworth Closed System. F. E. Cramer, of Hanover, Pa., installed the Farnsworth System. He wrote, "The winter of 1917 and 1918 gave your machines a thorough test — they worked to perfection and did all you claimed for them." REMEMBER, the Farnsworth Closed System is ideal for con- ditions in greenhouses and that the Farnsworth Duplex Boiler Feeder is the only machine of its kind on the market.

The annual meeting of tlje Cincin- nati Florists' Society was held July 14 at the flower market. L. H. Kyrk has been getting in some excellent sweet sultan from George Klotter during the last fortnight. C H. H. PROVIDENCE. The Market. Outdoor sweet peas are arriving in great abundance and have completely cut the price on the greenhouse product, but the demand is somewhat limited. Asters are stronger each day, both as to quantity and quality. As carnations grow scarcer, asters replace them, so that the market is well sustained for funeral work. Business is unusually quiet, and vacations, with renovation of shops, are now the order for the coming six weeks. Various Notes. Fred Hoflfman and family, of Paw- tucket, are at Oakland Beach for their summer vacation. Simon Colitz, of Woonsocket, is en- joying a vacation trip to Atlantic City. William Cohen, of Cohen Bi-os., Low- ell avenue, is to be married this month and will take a wedding trip through the White mountains. Joseph McCarthy, with Timothy O'Connor, is spending a two weeks' va- cation at Block Island. Hugo de Wildt, of the Elmwood •Greenhouses, who was operated on for appendicitis last week at the hospital, is reported as getting along satisfac- torily. Howard Vose, of Attleboro, has just purchased an automobile, in which he contemplates frequent trips this sum- mer. The Bank Street Greenhouses, of At- tleboro, had the family and store flow- ers for the funeral of A. Clisholm, a manufacturing jeweler of that town, last week. One piece was a 56-inch standing wreath of white roses. Louis J. Reuter, formerly of Wester- ly, now near Boston, visited his old home over the Fourth and participated in the trap shoot of the South County Rod and Gun Club. Charles Smith, of the Eastern Wreath Mfg. Co., was a business visitor in New York and Philadelphia last week. Frederick Dietz has just purchased an automobile for delivery purposes. Samuel Resnick, with Joseph E. Kop- pelman, narrowly escaped losing his left hand last week through blood poisoning from rose thorns. The Quidnick Greenhouses, of Quid- nick, are being completely renovated and repaired. A small propagating house has been added. William Doel has just added a small potting house to his range, on Broad street, Pascoag. Johnston Bros, are repainting, repair- ing and completely rearranging the in- terior of their store, on Dorrance street. A number of pier mirrors are being added. •Tames B.

The weather has moderated consider- ably during the last week. Outdoor stock is not so plentiful since the hot spell. Sweet peas are not arriving as fast as they were expected, most of the vines being exceptionally short, and in most cases the stems are short. Del- phinium is used profusely in all the stores for decorative purposes. Excel- lent gladioli, in practically all colors, are seen and command good prices. The demand is larger than the daily shipments. Daisies, both yellow and white, gyp- 3ophila, hardy snapdragons, coreopsis, gaillardia, mignonette, candytuft and feverfew are all plentiful. The supply of carnations is not large and their quality is far from good. American Beauties are not in heavy supply and the demand is light. Or- chids, though of good quality, do not sell at all briskly. There is a heavy supply of all indoor-grown roses, the demand being fairly active. Various Notes. An artificial fishpond surrounded with aquatic plants and moss occupied the window of H. E. Wilson last week. George T. Boucher has a good land- scape effect with ponds, bridges and farmhouses, and imitation shrubbery in the background. Alberts the Florist has a new electric sign placed over the front window and doorway of his store. Mr. and Mrs. Joseph Werdein are the happy parents of an 8-pound son, born last week.

The Florists^ Review 89 THE ENERGIZER FOR SOIL BACTERIA Is Coming to America! WONDERFUL RESULTS have been obtained by the use of RITO in Great Britain during the last three years. Owing to the war it has been impossible to export, but now we are free to do so. Horticulturists of the U. S. A. will at once avail themselves of this unique method of increasing their products and of getting their stuff ready for the market some weeks earlier than they have hitherto done, and so secure a much higher price. WHAT IS RITO ? — RITO is a humus, organic or natural fertilizer, a stimulant and energizing medium for soil bacteria. WHAT IS HUMUS ? — Humus is a complex substance or mixture of substances present in the richest of soils. It is black in color and hence renders the soil darker. RITO contains Humus in the right form for fertilizing the soil. WHY ADD HUMUS 7 — Because most soils contain very little (if any) Humus, and it is necessary for the proper development of the useful soil bacteria. The bacteria find in the Humus constituents a suitable medium for their robust propagation. That is, Humus is a source of food and energy for the soil bacteria. WHAT IS THE ANALYSIS OF RITO ?— It has very little chemical analysis and it does not come in the same category as fertilizers. It is essentially an energizing medium for soil bacteria. Phosphates and potash are present in all soils, but in the ordinary way they are not readily available. RITO, by energizing the soil bacteria, is calculated to make the phosphates and potash available for the plant. It also stimulates the nitrogen fixing bacteria into action, so that the consequent development is out of all proportion to its analysis. RITO takes the place of farmyard manure, or it may be used in conjunction with farmyard manure or any recognized artificials. RITO is free from weed seeds, spores and sferms, and from tbe egrss or larvae of noxious insects. It is well known that the soil is not a dead inert mass of matter, but that it teems with bacteria, which only need to be treated properly to be called into activity. There are millions in every spadeful of soil. RITO may be used in the open or under glass. What RITO Users Say:- " I used RITO in the soil for my Tomatoes this year. The result was the best crop I ever had, and / started picking two to three weeks earlier than usual, from seed sown same date as previous years." A market gardener says that his RITO-treated lettuce were ready for the market a month before the untreated ones, with the result that the treated ones brought 2s. 6d. per dozen and the untreated ones, when they were ready for the market, brought is. per dozen. " I tried RITO last year on Potatoes, and they yielded 30 per cent, better than those not treated." "Every ounce of fruit from both the treated and the untreated Tomatoes has been gathered and care- fully weighed. The weight of fruit gathered from the treated portions average just five times the amount as from the untreated portion." RITO Is packed in double bars, and the price is $5. 90 per 100 Please address your orders at once to The Molassine " I have used RITO in the Peach Houses, and find that it greatly improved both the quality of the fruit and also the growth. I also find RITO very good if used when mixing soil for potting various plants, and I have also used it on my Vines with excellent re- sults." "I have pleasure in testifying to the merits of RITO. It is 'Right Ho' and no mistake. I never saw Tomatoes do so well as when your RITO was applied as a top-dressing mixed with the soil; the roots the plants made in this way were extraordinary, and the crops correspondingly good. The same ap- plies to Cucumbers, also Chrysanthemums and to plants generally. It seems to consume the moisture, hence less watering is required." "RITO-treated Chrysanthemums made a much quicker and better start than they have usually done — in fact, the plants show a great improvement." lbs. ex Quay. Bostcn mr New York.

Quantities of gladioli are in the mar- ket and are lending themselves admir- ably to a variety of uses. If it were not for this flower, dealers would be in a bad fix. There is not much of anything else that can be used in such a variety of floral work in midsummer. There are a few roses and a few home-grown carnations coming in. Prices are rea- sonable, wholesale quotations being as follows: Roses, $2 to $8; carnations, $2; gladioli, $4 to $8; gypsophila, 50 cents per bunch. Business is fairty good. Various Notes. July 13 all wholesale florists began to close their stores on Sunday. This movement has been under consideration for some time and will be tried out dur- ing the summer months at least. Robert Shoch, of the M. Rice Co., Philadelphia, called on the trade last week. Recent visitors were: W. Stokes, Springfield, Mo.; J. Johnson, Ottawa, Kan.; Mrs. R. E. Everett, Pawhuska, Okla. Miss Emma Ruechel, who for the last eight years has been one of the most efficient workers in the office force of the Alpha Floral Co., has resigned her position. She will leave shortly for Los Angeles, with her mother and sister. They will reside there. Prospects for a wealth of chrysanthe- mums in the market next fall are good. One grower says he will have 30,000. Others report that they vnll have more than they have ever grown before. Mrs. Anna Papadokos, of the Apollo Flower Shop, is in Chicago for a few weeks. Miss Elizabeth Wark, stenographer for the W. L. Rock Flower Co., is on her vacation. The opening of the Continental Na- tional bank last week was the occasion of a large and lavish display of flowers. W. L. Rock is one of the directors of this bank. J. E. K. Butler, Pa. — In pursuance of their plan to establish a chain of stores in and about Pittsburgh, the A. W. Smith Co., of that city, have made plans for a store to be built here in the fall.

It does water — but it doesn't stop at that. That is to say, because it waters the way it waters it "starts something." That something is mostly more crop. It has a way of producing twice the cut of outdoor chrysanthemums, for exam- ple, on exactly the same ground. It has another way of re- ducing cultivation costs, be- cause when you water when water is needed, you don't need to cultivate so much . Further than that, the Skinner System won't cost you a cent. Not that we are going to give it to you, but that it will pay for itself that first year. Anything that pays for itself doesn't cost you any- thing.

TORONTO, ONT. Preparations for Convention. There has been a big demand for space in the trade exhibition of the Canadian Horticultural Association, to be held in connection with the conven- tion, at the Prince George hotel the second week of August. The fact that all the retail florists of Canada have been invited to attend the Canadian Horticultural Association convention this year is probably responsible to some extent for the demand for space. There will be a large representation from the United States. Those who have not yet reserved space and desire to do so should communicate with Alex Simpson, con- vention secretary, or J. J. Higgins, 256 Yonge street, superintendent of ex- hibits. All the sessions, banquet, etc., will be held at the Prince George. Arrange- ments have been made with the customs department to admit free under bond all goods brought in for exhibition pur- poses only. All desiring hotel reserva- tions should coniniiinicate with H. G. Dillemuth, convention chairman. The retail florists will have charge of the proceedings Wednesday, August 13. The morning will be taken up with busi- ness and the afternoon with the annual picnic of the Toronto Retail Florists' Club, to which all florists and their families are invited. Last year, with only Toronto florists, there was an at- tendance of over 300. This year pro- vision is being made for 500. Besides motor cars to take the crowds to Long Branch, where the picnic will be held, two large suburban electric cars have been chartered and will leave Sunny- side station at 2 o 'clock. Two pavilions have been secured, one for the supper and one for dancing. A long list of sports has been drawn up, for which valuable prizes have been allotted. A feature of the picnic will be a drawing contest. Each visitor will be given a number and the three lucky numbers drawn will secure for the holders valu- able prizes. J. J. H. St. Paul, Minn.— D. W. C. Ruff won the first prizes in the peony classes at the flower show of the Minnesota State Horticultural Society and the North- western Peony and Iris Association, with the following varieties: Best white, La Cygne; light pink, Touran- gelle; dark pink, Martha Bulloch; red, Mnry Brand.

They are good colors and nice, plump, well ripened stock. The small bulbs will practically all bloom, but of course not 80 many blooms per bulb the first season. WHITE FRBBSIAS, GRANDIFLORA. This is another one we got from Holland some years ago. We like it better than Purity on account of the substance in the flower. Not ?uite so long a stem as Purity, more like Re- recta Alba, but a very prolific bloomer and the best keeper we ever grew. 8000 Ist aize bulbs $1.00 per 100 6000 2pd size bulbs 75 per 100 10,000 small bulbs 50 per 100 These are a mighty good buy at the price; in fact, there are no better anywhere at any price, either in the white or the colored. All subject to previous sale, of course. We planted a 100-ft. bench to Freesias laat year, and are adding to that this year. They made us more money to the sQuare foot than any other crop on the place. GREEN'S GREBNHOUSES, FREMONT. NBBR. ORDBB JS'RBBSIAS FROM FRBESIA HEADQUARTERS All varieties listed here are STANDARD A.

Ansel D. Carpenter, of Cohoes, N. T., and Mrs. Carpenter celebrated their golden wedding July 9. They were mar- ried July 8, 1869, at Scranton, Pa. In honor of the occasion they enter- tained about 100 relatives, employees and friends at a clambaJce at Brookside park, near Cohoes. Some of their friends came from as far distant points as Seat- tle, Wash., Miami, Fla., and Bathurst, N. B. Some of the local florists, and florists from nearby towns, were also among the guests. Roman J. Irwin and Thomas Irwin, of New York, were prominent in the party. The Florists ' Association of Troy pre- sented the happy couple with a silver loving cup, the presentation being made by John Sambrook, of Troy. They were also presented with handsome gold- handled silk umbrellas by the employees of the greenhouses and store. There was much speechmaking and the enjoyment of the occasion was general. Each of the women guests was presented with a corsage bouquet and at each plate was a favor, conveying a word of greeting from the hosts. In the evening Mr. and Mrs. Carpenter held a reception at their home. J. H.

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

Mr. Mueller, of St. Joseph, Missouri, was among the first, if not the first westerner to use the Counterbalanced Ventilating Apparatus. This house is 50 x 250. We have just received.an order for another like it, besides one 50 x 100. This Counterbalanced Ventilating Apparatus Reduces Profanity I T cuts swearing in half. Cuts it in half, because it cuts ventilator closing work in half. Yes, it cuts it down to a quarter of the former work. The weight of the sash is counter- balanced by weights in the hand wheel standard. The multiplied gear makes vent opening easy. But it's the closing down that counts most. All you have to do is lift the hand lever, and down comes the sash within 3 inches of closing. Stopping 3 inches above closing prevents slamming and glass breakage. A hand lever locks it open [in any position. It is made for either semi-iron or full iron frame houses, generally for runs of 100 feet and over. For fuller descriptions and com- plete illustrations, see page 67 of the new Handy Hand Book. If you haven't the new one, send for it.

We are convinced that it is important for every Florist to buy at once his Fall and Winter needs in practically everything necessary to keep his business going at its full capacity. , A big business can not be done without the material or merchandise with which to do big business. There is a real big business coming for those who are in position to handle it. Buy now and buy plenty. Prices Can Not Come Down Instead, they are likely to go up The cost of labor is the controlling factor in prices this season— and it is common knoxyledge that wages, if they are not going up, certainly are not coming down. Merchandise can not be cheaper until it costs less to produce it. i ♦ I Merchandise Is Scarce Demand in most lines exceeds supply There are several reasons why the merchandise used by Florists and handled in Flower stores is in even shorter supply than most other lines. In the first place, pro- duction was curtailed during the war and manufacturers' stocks became depleted if not exhausted. Sufficient time has not yet elapsed to restore the normal stocks. In the second place. Florists had, last season, an unprecedented demand— they cleaned out their own shelves, and the jobbers'. Also, many items of Florists' requirements come from abroad— and without exception these are in half supply at a time the demand is greatest. Every Une of the so-called luxury trades in America is booming— nobody ever saw the like. Dealers in Florists' Supplies are doing big business, but Florists are buying mostly for current needs, not for next Fall and Winter. It is high time orders were being placed for Fall. The Florist who gets his goods now will pay no more, if as much, and next winter he will be pushing his selhng when the other fellow is spending his time hunting for merchandise or waiting for it to come. Randall salesmen will serve you well, but a trip to Chicago usually is repaid by a visit to our show rooms. A. L. RANDALL CO., R, G. DUN, the great Commercial Agency, aays: "No one now hesitates to buy. This statepient sums up a change in the trade situali^Q in the last few weeks which has had far-reaching effects on indus- tries and on all channels of distribution. Betail demand is broad and undiscrim- inating, the higher grades of merchan- dise moving as freely as the cheaper, and merchants reporting their chief dif- ficulty to be the obtaining of goods in sufficient quantities to meet the calls of customers. Wholesale distribution is ahead of the large figures of last summer. There is a pronounced dispo- sition on the part of buyers to cover needs for next spring, but present deliv- eries are given precedence and there is growing prospect of shortage in many lines in the early part of 1920."

Then a Slump. Hut in the last two years stores which formerly had good displays in their win dows devoted less ami less eft'ort and flowers to such decorations. There was a reasonable, nay a strong excuse. "When stock is as high in price as it is," was a reply during the last season, ■'we can't afford to waste even oiU' flower; \\i\ can sell anything that comes into the store, and at a good price, too.'' There came also the similar answer, ''Everybody around the ]ilace has all he or she can do. When we lia\'e to pay as much as we do now t'or lielp, we can't Florists' Telegraph Delivery is the Message of this Window. afTord to spend time on anything except taking care of the orders that come in." When business was as good as that, nobody cared much, or had time to think much, about the display window, so long as it had a few ferns and foliage plants to All it. And quite naturally. Every- body was busy picking up the money t hat rolled his way. Hut now, although business is keeping iij) unusually well during the hot weath- er, so well indeed that the staffs of some stores, reduced by vacations, are almost as busy as they were in the spring. Yet there is a period of slackness now and then. That may well be consumed by jiutting some thought and work on the show window. Various flowers in their short season during the summer are plentiful enougli to be used generously ill the window. No iii.atter how many vears jiass, the mill-pond, wit h its fish, t iii\ ducks, or turtles or crocotliles, still draws the crowd of jiassers by.

The r. T. D. Window. The illustration shows a window that requires little cut flower stock, which will spoil and be lost. Yet it is decidedly a florist's window, and one advertising an extraordinarily well paying branch of the business, the tele- graph delivery system. You know that Albert Pochelon, of the L. Bemb Floral Co., Detroit, is an ardent supporter of the telegraph delivery. So ardent a sup- porter is he that all his friends become supporters also. In this window he has the rustic ef- fects mentioned before, stream of water and rapids, an aeroplane and also the telegraph delivery feature well played up. Both the flower shop and telegraph office, with the wires connecting them, are conspicuously placed. The messen- ger directly in front is extremely strik-' ing to the eye. A window such as this brings strongly to the attention of many people the wire delivery of flowers. There are plenty of other features which can be well employed. Now is the time to start on the window. Make it an ad- vertising display. TAKE TOUS PIPE ALONG. An amusing incident occurred today. While looking outside our store window my attention was called to men working across the way who seemed to work as though they didn't care "whether school kept or not." The idea seem- ingly was to do as little as possible in order to make the job they were on last as long as possible, and they certainly meant to do it. One of 6ur employees also noted the indifference of the men to their job, and remarked that the job must be a day job and not a contract one, for if it were a contract job they would have to hustle ■ along with their work. Then he told me about a certain employer who, whenever he had a job that was taken at a con- \fia.Qt price, saw to it that the men hur- ried along and did their work, but when- ever he accepted a job and charged for it by the day he would immediately tell them to be sure to take their pipes along. The purpose was evident. They would take all the time they wanted to light and smoke their pipes. Why should he caret This incident is not unlike the way some florists are taking in our publicity campaign. The way some have neglected to send in their subscriptions makes one think they are taking their pipes along. Of course we hope that some have full knowledge that ours is a contract job and not one of day work. How does it affect you? We are all working for one ultimate purpose, and that is for future success in the sale of more flowers. You are one of the contractors. Are you on the job! Henry Penn, Chairman National Publicity Campaign. MB. GEDDIS TALES. High Prices Next FalL "Few florists appreciate the scarcity of merchandise that exists today, ' ' said David 8. Oeddis while in the ofiice of The Review last week. "Last season's wonderful business swept out the flower stores; it gave them a cleaning such as most of them never had known; it cleared out the rusty wire frames, the old, misshapen and soiled baskets, the off-shade ribbons, even the artificial flowers most stores buy but seldom sell. Thus far few florists have made the at- tempt to buy in quantity to replace these goods or to prepare for the fall season and for Christmas. When they do, they will get a jolt." Mr. Geddis was not speaking for pub- lication, but he recently has been in the market to buy a general stock of staple florists' supplies for the new building soon to be occupied by the St. Louis Wholesale Cut Flower Co., so he has a knowledge of the situation at primary sources of supply which cannot fail to be of wide interest. "You can go straight through the list," said he, "without finding a manufacturer who has any considerable stock of goods, or of materials, and most of them are short of help, while all are paying wages that are higher than ever before. Consider- ing that they have about all they can do now, in the midst of the usual dull soasoa, what will it be when fall buying begins f As for imported stock, such as immortelles, cape flowers and chiffons, there are few and the prices on the other side of the water are such as to make the jobbers sit up and take notice." How Labor Shortage Affects Supplies. "There is another point that is worth noting," continued Mr. Oeddis; "the shortage of factory help has caused practically every manufacturer to re- duce his line; they are not making the usual variety, concentrating on a few articles, and novelties will be scarce. "When you consider the small num- ber of actual manufacturers of florists' supplies compared to the great number of users of them you can see where we all are going to be 'kt' next winter." Mr. Geddis is well known to the trade all over the country, because of the skill with which he handled flowers while he was connected with retailing and be- cause of the progress he has made since he became identified with growing and wholesaling, so that his views carry weight. "Most growers made money last season, considerably to their sur- prise," he said, "and they are wonder- ing where they will come out next spring. I have no doubt we shall have big business. In place of last autumn 's big call for funeral work, we shall have, in St. Louis and probably elsewhere, the most active social season on record. If we do not get the prices we need to make the flower business pay in all its branches it will be because we do not all work together; the people are able and willing to pay for flowers in pro- portion to the cost of other things. Higher Flower Prices Compulsory. "Prices cannot be low next season; if they should be, the growers would be driven out of business. It will cost more to grow flowers in the next ten months than it ever cost before. The grower who doesn't spend the money won 't have the goods. I figure that car- nations have got to average 4 cents next season, and roses 8 cents, if we are to take enough off the plants to make it possible to keep on growing good stock." PEONIES FOE INDIANA Replying to the inquiry of E. M. H., Ind., in The Review for July 3, peonies suited to conditions in Indiana vary, no doubt, from those farther south, and possibly from those around Chicago, where the blooming season is usually a week to ten days later than with us. First, the old officinalis is always on hand, no matter what the season may be. If early, the blooms always find a ready sale, because they are first. If late, they come just in time for Me- morial day. Following this we have, in pink,Edulis Superba, Alexandre Dumas, Jules Elie, Moore's Early and Novelty; in white. Queen Victoria, Drop White, Festiva Maxima and Madame de Verneville; in red. Rubra Triumphans, Richard Carvel, Felix Crousse and Pottsi.

DECORATIONS AT BAITK OPENING. Floral decorations of every kind filled the corridors of the Marine Bank & Trust Co., in its new quarters, on Caron- delet street, New Orloajjfl, at its open- ing, June 30. A large proportion of the wreaths and' sprays came from the Motairie Eidge Nurseries, but all the principal florists of the city were well represented. The bank was organized about one year ago and has risen rapidly in piiblic favor, the deposits now reach- ing upwards of $12,000,000. TOEONTO, ONT. Convention Plans Complete. The final program for the Canadian Horticultural Association convention is out and it shows that there will be some- thing doing all the time. The date has been set for August 12 to 15 inclusive, so that visitors from the United States can take in the convention in Toronto on the way to Detroit. A cordial invi- tation has been extended to florists, growers and supply men of the United States to take in the Toronto conven- tion. Supply houses desiring space for exhibition purposes should advise either A. Simpson, 11 Queen 's park, or J. J. Higgins, superintendent of exhibits, at once, in order that reservations may be made. All desiring hotel reservations should advise H, G. Dillemuth, chair- man of the convention committee. Goods for exhibition purposes only will be admitted duty-free. Social features include a- banquet, visit to the greenhouses of Sir John Eaton and Sir Henry Pellatt, and a visit to Victoria park, at Niagara Falls. All attending the convention will be the guests of the Toronto Retail Florists' Club Wednesday afternoon, August 13, at Long Branch. Automobiles and elec- tric cars will take the crowds to the park free. There will be a good pro- gram of sports. Valuable prizes will be given. An orchestra will be in attend- ance, supper will be served and the even- ing spent in dancing. The club will pay all expenses. Preparations are being made for over 500. J. Plumptree will be director of sports. ^ Various Notes. A trip to a number of greenhouses shows that they intend taking care of the anticipated increased business next winter. Material is now on the ground for the additions at the Dale Estate. Simmons & Son are also increasing their greenhouses at Brampton. J. H. Dun- lop will soon have his new greenhouses at Richmond , Hill. The Bedford Park Floral '(R. has ground near Mr. Dunlop and by next year will probably under- take the construction of a complete new range at Richmond Hill. Other growers are taking advantage of the season to make much needed improvements and additions. George M. Geraghty, the manager of J. H. Dunlop 's, took a party of twenty- one returned soldiers for a month's holiday to his summer home, Pilgrims' Rest, on Georgian bay. S. McFadden, manager of S. Tidy & Son, and family, are at Otter lake. H. G. Dillemuth is on a fishing trip at Lake Magnetewan. He remembered 'the boys in the Store and friends with some speckled beauties. J. J. H. CHEMISTRY HEIiPS GROWERS. [This is the third Installment of the article by E. A. White, professor of floriculture at Cornell University, Ithaca, N. Y., on "How Science Aids Florists."] As has been stated, next to botany in its various divisions, probably no branch of science has been more beneficial to floriculture than chemistry. Botany and chemistry are so interwoven in plant culture that it is impossible to state the relative importance of each. The ap- plication of chemical principles touches many phases of plant life closely. Both organic and inorganic substances must be studied; air, moisture and the soil elements, which make life possible, are all intimately bound up in chemical substances. A study of the atmosphere in its re- lation to plant life, and of the soil in its relation to vigorous plant growth, brings us closely into the chemical world. In earlier horticultural practice, little attention was paid to atmospheric conditions. The air as a source of plant food was unthought-of, for the plant growers of that early period had little to aid them in solving their problem regarding the source of material for im- proving the growth of. their plants. Atmosphere and Plant Growth. For years there was a realization that the nature of the soil was important for healthy growth, but only within com- paratively recent times has there come to be a realization that the atmosphere is equally important. Outdoor atmos- pheric conditions are little subject to control, but in greenhouses the plants' environment in this respect may be more easily governed. With the discovery that a large percentage of a plant's substance was carbon, and that the plant received this carbon from the air, there came to be a better appreciation by plant growers of the fact that plants are as dependent on a liberal supply of fresh air as is man. The greenhouse builder, therefore, be- gan to consider the principles of ven- tilation, and although present-day meth- ods of greenhouse ventilation are ex- tremely crude, nevertheless plant growth under glass is much more healthy than in the earlier days, when it was thought that all that was necessary was to give the plants warmth and light. Consequently, the early green- houses were small and sunken in the soil so as to retain all the heat, and every possible effort was made to pre- vent the escape of warm air from the greenhouses and to let little fresh, cool air in. In this way the plants became so susceptible to fungous diseases that it was almost impossible to grow many species. 14 The Rorists' Review July 24. 1919. Along Comes the Scientist. When the scientist showed the cul- turist the value of fresh air, there was an improvement in the quality of the plants grown. Larger, more airy houses were built and these were located on more exposed elevations, where good air circulation could be obtained and larger supplies of fresh air given the interior of the houses. The plant grower, however, is more concerned with soil and fertility ques- tions than with almost any other prob- lem in science. He grows a wide range of plant species, each with its own re- quirements not only in rftgard to the chemical constituents of the soil, but the physical character of the soil as well. It is generally known that plants under glass grow best if the soil con- tains a mixture of medium sand, silt and clay. The proportion of these varies with different crops, and all species' requirements have to be studied care- fully. They are learned largely by investigation and experimentation. Ex- periment stations, in connection with the agricultural colleges and the United States Department of Agriculture, have done much valuable scientific work in determining correct conditions for vari- ous species of plants. Yet much remains to be learned. Probably no cultivated plant is more particular regarding proper physical and chemical constituents of the soil than is the rose. The best commercial rose growers in America today are those men who have kept closely in touch with the scientific work of the experiment sta- tions. The Chemist's Limitations. The chemist, especially the agricul- tural chemist, is rendering valuable as- sistance to the flower grower. Unfor- tunately, he is handicapped to a certain degree and his limitations will not al- ways permit him to fulfill the expecta- tions of practical men. Only a few days ago the writer received a sample of soil with the request that it be analyzed and the sender informed as to what he should apply to make it a good soil for violets. Many men fail to realize that all mineral elements must be rendered soluble before they can be used by plants, and that organic substances must exist in correct combination be- fore they are of value to plants. A soil may contain a quantity of food elements and yet the plant may starve. For this reason chemical analysis is seldom satis- factory from the grower's viewpoint. The chemist can determine the minerals which compose the soil, but he is not familiar with the food requirements of plants of different species and the avail- ability for these plants of the minerals and organic substances in the soil. This is a problem to be determined only by experimentation for each particular crop and for each type of soil, and it is the function of the scientists in our experi- ment stations to work out these prob- lems for the benefit of the practical grower. The chemist is, however, teaching the flower grower the sources of plant food and how to treat his crops so they will receive the proper amount of nutrition. The chemist is also giving the flower grower a better knowledge of the so- called "commercial fertilizers" and their effect on plant growth. [To b« continued.] TULIPS FOR CHBISTMAS. What is the best red tulip to have for Christmas and when should the bulbs be started? Also, what red sweet pea do you recommend for Christmas cut- ting? E. S. L.— Me. Scarlet Due van ThoU is the earliest of all the red tulips and the only red that can be depended upon to flower for Christmas, but red tulips are strictly a novelty for Christmas and, as a rule, a poor one. Those that are generally seen have short stems with a poor flower peeping above scant foliage. The grow- er is not to blame, neither are the bulbs. The trouble lies in the fact that Christ- mas is too early to have tulips that are worth while. If this were not the case, with the ability of the present-day growers, we would have just as good tulips for Christmas as are seen during February and March. For the bulbs to flower at all, they must be well rooted and should therefore be started as soon as they can be had. Christmas Meteor is the earliest of the red grandiflora type of sweet pea. Scarlet Emperor and Burpee's Early King are two other fine red sweet peas. M. P. considerable number will go by auto- mobile, as the roads are reported to be in excellent condition. A committee, consisting of Irwin Bertermann, Adolph Baur and Oscar Carlstedt, has been appointed by A. H. Nehrling to look after transportation and other matters pertaining to the convention. This committee has prac- tically decided on a night trip via the Big Four railroad, leaving' Indianapolis at 9 p. m. August 18 and arriving in Detroit early next morning. Informa- tion regarding rates, etc., may be ob- tained by consulting members of the committee. INDIANA WILL BE THERE. According to reports coming to the office of State Vice-President Nehrling, Indiana will be well represented at the coming 8. A. F. convention. It is esti- mated that about fifty from northern Indiana alone will make the trip. A NOTICE BY LADIES' S. A. F. Mrs. C. H. Maynard gives notice to amend Ladies' 6. A.

The Florists' Review 15 USAF-SPOT ON aERANIUMS. Geraniums that I set outdoors last spring for fall cutting did well until two weeks ago, when they were suddenly attacked by leaf -spot. A dark spot ap- pears on the leaf. The leaf turns yel- low and soon drops off. I have been spraying with Bordeaux mixture with- out any results. What would you ad- vise? C. F. P.— Kan. It is impossible to form a definite opinion as to the cause of the trouble with these geraniums without seeing a specimen of the affected plants. It would appear from the inquiry that the trouble is due to excessive moisture, accompanied by terrific heat, especially if the geraniums are planted closely in extremely rich soil. Leaf -spot on gera- niums often comes after heavy thun- derstorms, during the heat of the sum- mer. If these plants have made a strong growth and become matted together, I would advise topping back the growths and giving the plants a general clean-uj) to let the air in to them. The cuttings that will be obtained from the new growth, started now, will make better material for fall cuttings than wood left on the plants since spring. But if the plants continue to be infected with the disease, it will be a serious mistake to take any cuttings from them. M. P. MAGQOTS ON OEBANIUMS. Under separate cover I have mailed to you a glass jar containing an ant or some such insect, which is affecting gera- niums growing outside here. You will see they bore through the center of the stem and eventually the stems fall off. Can you give me the name of the in- sect and tell me how to destroy it? S. T.— O. The insects are not ants, but maggots, which come from decayed animal or vegetable matter. I am inclined to be- lieve that they were brought into the soil by the use of some kind of freSh manure. If the geranium plant sent is a fair specimen of what these mag- gots arc doing, it is going to take some strenuous measures to get rid of them, and care will have to be taken to check them from getting a foothold among the other plants on the place. The wisest measure to take with plants as badly affected as the one sent, is to pull them up, build a good fire and burn them, because, being so badly in- fested with the maggots, it is impossible to clean them out and save the plants for any future use. ThesT maggots have their inception by a fly or bug working in something which the soil contains; so it is through the soil that they will have to be fought. The surest means of exterminating them is by the use of carbon bisulphide. Saw off a piece from the end of a broomstick, make holes about six inches deep and eighteen inches apart, pour a few drops of carbon in each hole, cover- ing it up immediately. Select the places where the plants are most badly affected and watch the results. It is better to have the soil moist, because the fumes of the carbon will not pass away so (|uickly as when it is dry. The writer had occasion to use this remedy with good results in fighting white grubs in flower beds and believes tliat it will be just as effective in getting lid of these maggots. Be careful in the use of the carbon, because it is explo- sive. After the geraniums are taken from the land at the end of the season, it will be a good plan to work into it a liberal dressing of fresh lime, M, P. LANCASTER, PA, Club Picnic, The Lancaster County Florists' Club held its annual picnic at Rossmere July 17. Twenty-five members of the Read- ing club were present as guests of honor. The Lancaster club met them at the P. & R. depot with machines and took them, first to Long park; next to B. F. Burr 's formal gardens at his home on Marietta pike; then to President James Buchanan's historic home, where George B. Wilson was a delightful host, show- ing the party through the mansion and over the well kept grounds; then to Maple Grove, Lancaster's new amuse- ment park; then to Lancaster's country club, which is excelled by none in Penn- sylvania. After this the entire party went to the Rossmere hotel, where lunch was served at noon, followed by an old- fashioned Lancaster dinner at 4 p, m. More than 100 florists and their wives were present, together with their chil- dren, who numbered almost fifty, A pro- gram of games had been arranged. The older folks enjoyed bowling, billiards and quoits. In bowling, Willis B, Girvin won first prize. In the ladies' contest, Cora Weaver rolled the highest score. In 500, Charles B, Herr and Miss Musselman, both of Strasburg, won the prizes. In addition to the twenty-five visitors from Reading were: Edward Marshall and party from Kennett Square; S, S. Pennock, D, J, Keohane, D. T. Connor, C. D. Bates and T. J, Nolan, all of Phila- delphia, The elaborate decorations on the din- ing tables were the work of B. F. Barr and L, S. Landis, After dinner, President Elmer J, Weaver made some appropriate remarks and Maurice J, Brinton, of Christiana, expressed the pleasure that Lancaster took in entertaining the Reading breth- ren, H, A. Schroyer told several de- lightful stories. President Heck, of the Reading club, and J. C. Bowder also spoke. The committee in charge was made up of B. F. Barr, H. F. Rohrer and A, M. Herr, All present voted it the most suc- cessful outing ever held by the Lancas- ter club, H. K.

' ' says Ex- president Baker, "Fort Worth is go- ing to give you the biggest time ever." The ride through town was snappy. Hillyer's, Wall's and Friedrich's were visited in quick succession, but a longer stop was made at the store of Charles Alff & Co., where a fine lunch was served in Mr. Alff's palm garden. This is a wonderful little spot — the realization of a dream of fifty years ago, when Mr. Alff first came here. President Ammann, of the S. A. F., gave an interesting and illuminating talk on the publicity campaign and S. A. F. doings. When he finished, Chair- man Kerr, of the welfare committee, got on his auctioneer's clothes and soon had Texas' quota greatly enlarged. There was a great spread at the Dris- kell. The idea of each man introducing himself worked out well, Edgar Hall's 200-pound little boy, Buford, made quite a hit. When it comes to eating, the sup- ply men had the florists bested, D, L, Harris tried to fill up for the week, Robert Shoch could not have filled up in a week. Mr. Hill, of the Skinner Irrigation Co., W. W, Randall and C, E, Pruner ran about even with the rest. The trip through the state capitol was interesting. E. W, Judge, of Tyler, was especially interested. In years gone by he had spent many hours as a page for the assembly. On the occasion of asking assistance from the state for an experimental sta- tion and botanical garden, our worthy S. A. F. president gave some of the ex- periences of the Illinois State Associa- tion, and incidentally advised parents to send their boys on to study the technical side of the floricultural profes- sion at some school like the University of Illinois. President Ammann spent a day in Dallas visiting various stores and the establishment of the Green Floral Co,,, on Kaufman road. The young roses, carnations and chrysanthemums were in excellent shape and the fine, healthy condition of the Texas stock rather sur- prised President Ammann. In Fort Worth the different whole- salers were visited by President Am- mann, The fine new plant in Green- wood cemetery was interesting. The ten acres under irrigation, with 80,000 gladioli just beginning to come in, a great deal of English celery, outdoor roses, etc., showed great possibilities for Texas. Gene. 16 The Florists^ Review Jdlt M, 1»19. BAI.TIMOSE. The Market. This week the market has been about normal for the season. The demand is good and the supply of summer stock is all that could be expected. Boses are plentiful, but, as is always the case in midsummer, they are small and off color. Gladioli are in large supply and of good quality; Some are especially fine and sell fast. There is plenty of all sorts of miscellaneous stock to be had. Greens of all kinds are plentiful, especially plumosus. Funeral work is the principal thing florists have to depend upon and this line of work holds up well. It is not confined to any particular section of the city, so that all are getting a fair share of the business. There is plenty of money in circulation and a fair share of it is finding its way into the coffers of the florists. Everyone, from the most exclusive stores down to the street men, seems satisfied. Club Meeting. The Baltimore Florists' Club held its regular meeting July 14 and, as pre- dicted, it was one of the best meetings ever held by the local club. The subject of the meeting was "Publicity," and although this campaign has been going on for over a year, there were many of our members who did not fully realize just what was being done, and what the publicity campaign meant to them as individuals. Major O'Keefe, in his address, out- lined this to his hearers and there is no doubt that after hearing what the com- mittee is doing and what it anticipates doing, publicity got a boost in Baltimore that will help the cause. Another thing that opened the eyes of the club was the work outlined by John Young, of the promotion bureau. No one had any idea of the good work being done by this branch of the cam- paign. It was the first time that many of us had met the genial secretary, but the unanimous opinion, after the meet- ing, was that he is the right man in the right place. Indeed, after Major O 'Keef e and Mr. Young had spent the evening with us everyone seemed more optimistic and enthusiastic over the campaign. For in- stance, there were some who could not understand why the campaign should be put into the hands of an advertising agency. After hearing about the duties of the agency, such as selecting the proper mediums, preparing copy, etc., they changed their minds. One thing I noticed that struck them most forcibly was the fact that this agency is not be- ing paid for its services directly from the funds of the campaign, but by com- missions from the publications that carry the advertisements. In other words, it would cost the S. A. F. just the same to insert a page advertisement in the Saturday Evening Post as it does to do it now with the aid of trained experts. Mr. Young, in his address, told of meeting a man of fifty years' experi- ence in newspaper work on a train in the far west. Mr. Young remarked that he was traveling in the interest of publicity for flowers. He inquired: "Have you anything to do with this slogan I see, 'Say It with Flowers.' " Mr. Young replied: "That is part of our campaign." The gentleman was at once anxious to know who had origi- nated it. On being told that the O'Keefe Advertising Agency, of Bos- ton, was responsible for it, and that $50,000 per year was being spent in or- der to popularize it, he replied that if the O'Keefe firm did nothing else but furnish this slogan it was $50,000 well spent, for never in his experience had he run across a slogan in any business that meant so much or said fio much as "Say It with Flowers." We all know that in the face of all sorts of obstacles, such as short coal rations, scarcity of labor, etc., last year was one of the best in the history or the florist's business, and, to use the slogan of a well known coffee substitute, ' ' There 's a Eeason. ' ' Take, for instance, the woman's organizations and the Bed Cross in the late war, with chapters in every state of the Union. When Mr. Young told us that at their request 20,000 signs had been prepared for them with "Say It with Flowers to our boys, * ' and that this was being followed up by pasting such signs in every women's college in the country, we can, therefore, understand why last year was such a good year. Another thing Major O'Keefe dwelt upon was the importance of creating in the minds of the public new uses for flowers. This may seem vague upon first thought, but did we ever stop to think that new uses are coming into existence every day for flowers! They are being used for bank openings, and it is a regular thing now at store open- ings or anniversaries for the store to be remembered by those from whom they buy goods with flowers. Major O'Keefe said they were now working on a plan to have a certain day set aside in com- memoration of the late war, either Armistice day or Peace day; the object of this day would be that everyone might "Say It with Flowers." Before the meeting a banquet was held at the Hotel Rennert. There were no speeches at this, as they were all saved for the main meeting. A delega- tion from Washington was present, also from the Philadelphia club, but owing to vacation time there were not so many present as we had hoped for. Among those at the banquet were Robert L. Graham, R. L. Graham, Jr., I. H. Moss, W. E. McKissick, W. F. Ekas, J. J. Perry, O. R. Thomas, R. A. Vincent, Richard Vincent, Jr., W. F. Keys, C. H. Wagner, W. G. Lehr, G. W. Stisser, F.'E. Cremer, J. De Groot, J. S. Merritt, W. T. Baynes, J. A. Ritter, George Eberle, John Young, Major O'Keefe, W. F. Bauer, F. C. Bauer, John Rider, Z. D. Blackistone, E. P. Rodman, George C. Shaffer, George Grillbortzer, A. Sehnell, George Muhly, S. Uhlfelder, M. Siegwart, Robert Kift. The club decided to go after the con- vention of the S. A. F. following that in Cleveland; that will mean the 1921 convention will be held in Baltimore, for we never go after anything we don't get. Tate. MILWAUEEB. James J. Cummings, of 1131 West Bal- timore street, and proprietor of several large greenhouses at Ten Hills, left for London July 17, where he will transact business before he visits his old home in Ireland. He will visit his father, who is 97 years old, and his mother, who is two years younger. He will then make a trip to Japan, France and Germany. He expects to be away three months. The Market. Everyone seems to concede that busi- ness is far ahead of last July thus far. Prices have been firm for good stock, and with a little rush business coming along, second-class stock move* well. There are some excellent summer roses being cut, chief of which are Ophelia, Columbia, Shawyer, Milady and Russell. They are not equal to the demand, however, and clean up early in the day. Asters are not of good eiae, but sell readily for $3 per hundred. Zinnias are among the good sellers. Their soft, bright colors make them adaptable to almost any line of floral work. The general run of garden flowers is much better since the heavy rains of last week. Various Notes. Some of the Milwaukee florists will go to the Detroit convention via auto- mobile. Some will go the entire way overland and some contemplate cross- ing the lake by boat and eontinuing the trip by auto. Allen Humason, of Chicago, called on the trade this week with his diversified lines of florists' and growers' supplies, and in the interest of the publicity cam- paign. Mr. and Mrs. Herman Hunkel and their two sons left Sunday, July 13, for a pleasure trip through the east. A pleasure trip of course, but the trade expects Mr. Hunkel to find a number of good ideas during his journey, which all of us can share in this winter. Walter Maas has been absent from his business the last two weeks, with rheumatism. Miss Sheriffs has attended to the buying and management of the store. The Cudahy Floral Co. will soon start to cut Premier and Columbia. Downtown florists had an unusual rush of funeral work Saturday, July 19. There were eight or nine funerals and flowers of all sorts were cleaned up. Baumgarten, Inc., and the Edlefsen- Leidiger Co. have their delivery cars in the shop for the regular summer over- hauling. Mrs. Ida Baumgarten was in Chicago last week. A. H. M. BOSTON. The Market. Supplies of cut flowers are now com- paratively small and are much lacking in variety. Roses, sweet peas, gladioli and carnations are about all we have and the last named are few in number and miserable in quality. Roses of the new crop are coming in quite freely an*' there has been a good market the last few days for hybrid teas, with some ad- vance in prices for Ophelia, Russell, Columbia, Hadley and Miller. Ameri- can Beauties are of good summer qual- ity and have sold quite well. There is a decided scarcity of good sweet peas and many more could be sold at prevail- ing prices. Growers complain that heat, drought, fog and drizzle have combined to spoil their flowers. Gladioli are coming in freely and prices have a downward tendency. The bulk sell at $4 to $8 per hundred. Asters as yet come in but small lots; they sell well now that carnations are practically out of the running for a time.

Business has been satis- factory at his store this season. Jelle Boos, of Milton, is the largest shipper of gladioli to the local whole- sale markets at present. Mr. Boos pur- chased the entire stock of gladioli from William Sim a year ago, which, added to his already big holdings, makes him our largest local gladiolus specialist. Among those who attended the joint picnic of the employees of Joseph Breck & Sons Co. and the Breck-Bobinson Nursery Co., were fouif who had seen long service. John Marden had bepn at the Breck store for fifty-two con- secutive years, li^rs. Coombs has served thirty-eight yeaijs; Frank Ferrari, thir- ty-four years, and Mr. Joyner, twenty- six years. President Wilson's veto of daylight saving repeal m,eeta with general satis- faction among florists and gardeners, who, almost to a man here, have ap- proved of the ehdnge. William Sim, of Cliftondale, is pre- paring to plant much more heavily of carnations for next season. At present he is picking large quantities of toma- toes. Of these he is one of our largest growers under glass. Polyanthus and violeta will also be gfrown another sea- son. W. N. C. NEW YORK. Tlie Market. St. Swithin's day, July 15, started a deluge, which has continued, more or less, since that date, and one wonders whether we are not to have the forty days of rain we are supposed to have when the Saint's day is favored with rain. The drenching rains have spoiled a great deal of outdoor flower stock. Consequently the market is not over- supplied today, shipments being par- ticularly light, excepting in the case ot gladioli, large quantities of which are in evidence in tight bud condition. It would look as though the gladiolus grow- ers had sized up the situation. Prices are fairly remunerative, 75 cents to $1 per dozen for the best, which includes America, still a leader. With the weather still threatening, we may see a relief from the congested con- ditions experienced of late — until sun- shine is again paramount. Some asters of fair quality are arriv- ing, mostly shipped by florists who have found that a sprinkling apparatus is a paying proposition. The demand for flowers in general is inordinately light. The larger stores re- port business as extremely dull and their requirements are small. With the excep- tion of funeral work there is little doing, and the minimum of a summer demand is the experience of all. There are plenty of roses of all kinds and, when the fairly tight stock is dis- posed of, the surplus is big and moves at unquotable prices. American Beauty is still overplentif ul and prices are about at bottom. Although especially good stock will bring something near to 30 cents, the 10-cent quality in specials forms the major part of arrivals. Of the hybrid teas. Premier seems to stand up better under sultry conditions than other varieties and therefore sells out quickly, especially as it is not yet in ordinary supply. But little fancy stock in any variety is available. With the dark weather the cut today is lighter than would otherwise be the case, but this fact appears to have no influence upon the demand. Carnations are not plentiful, nor are they wanted badly. Most of the growers havex cleaned out thfeir benches, and those who are still shipping might as well follow suit, as little, if any, profit can come from the stock now arriving. Three or four varieties of cattleyas are arriving and move fairly well within a price range of about 25 to 75 cents. A few gardenias are noticed, but the grade is low. Lilies are in fairly good supply and are in demand for funeral work to some extent at $8 to $12 per hundred. There is little lily of the valley among the offerings. Miscellaneous flowers still are in heavy supply. Vaxlous Notes. Several of the retail stores report steamer trade to be reaching good pro- portions. Of course it is not anything like that of pre-war days, but then oc^an traffic is still greatly restricted and the list of weekly sailings is small. George Ball, of Glen EUyn, 111., was a visitor in the market last week. He and Mrs. Ball drove here in their Moline- Knight car. The transportation committee of the New York Florists ' Club had a meeting Thursday, July 17, at which a railroad representative was present. All reser- vations for berths on the official train to the Detroit convention, which is to leave Sunday evening, August 17, were registered and assignments made. A time is to be set in advance of the day for departure, when all intending to make the trip caii meet at the secre- tary's office to take up their tickets. The Boston delegation is to journey to Detroit over the Boston & Albany railroad, joining the New York party in Buffalo and proceeding by boat to Detroit. J. H. P. NEW OBLEANS, LA. The Market. There has been no special change dur- ing the last week in the cut flower mar- ket; in fact, conditions as to supplies and the general character of the stock sent in have become somewhat empha- sized. Assortment has been lacking in the way of stock grown out of town, and the style of the stock seems to lead to the belief that this market is, in large part, receiving only the culls. On this account, the trade is "miffed" to some extent and the loss to the retailer, due to the full-blown character of the flow- ers, has been heavy. Even if there be some shading of the bills on the part of the growers, it does not cover the en- tire loss, for the loss of prestige must be taken into consideration on both sides of the slate. While first-class stock has been miss- ing, the best seems to lie in the supply of peonies. At times the supply has hardly marked step with the demand. Mrs. Russell roses are still the best offer- ing and once in a while the florist is somewhat surprised to find a few good buds of White Killarney, Sunburst and Ophelia. Tuberoses and gladioli have been offered freely and there has been only a minor objection to the latter. The former has now to meet the purely local crop, of which the last week has seen an improvement in supply and quality. Some excellent asters have also been available, but taking thii* crop as a whole the local gardens are decidedly spotted as regards both quality and quantity. Field-grown Killarney, Ma- man Cochet and Kaiserin, with here and there a few Badiance of quality, have helped the florist to satisfy his cus- tomers. Outside of these the market is rather featureless and has dropped into a midseason groove. Field work, generally, has been ham- pered by the sweltering temperature and really skilled labor continues scarce. The chrysanthemum crop is progressing satisfactorily, but from now to the end of October many contingen- cies may arise to curtail the profits and stultify the efforts of the grower. Some planting of the later varieties is still an objective point, with stock somewhat scarce. Olub Meeting. The annual meeting and election of officers of the New Orleans Horticul- tural Society was held Thursday eve- ning, July 17, with a large number of members in attendance. AH of the old officers were reelected without opposi- tion, the roster comprising the follow- ing: President, Charles Eble; vice- president, Joseph Bernard; treasurer, John Eblen; financial secretary, Olaude B. Ory. The meeting was the thirty-fourth in the life of the society, and it is worthy of remark that Mr. Eblen has served as treasurer since its organization in 1885. Brief addresses were given by the president, Joseph Steckler and others, in which a strong plea for the national or- ganization was urged in regard to the na- tion-wide advertising (campaign, '^Bay i.t> with Flowers." The question of at- tendance at the approaching convention at Detroit was brought up and dis- cussed, but no official action was taken, it being left to the initiative of the members. The report of the commit- tee on the yearly outing, June 19, was received and passed. The committee recommended that in future such a gath- ering of the members be held nearer the city. As already noted, the storm on Lake Pontchartrain took all the pleas- ure out of the outing. The meeting was followed by a substantial collation. Various Notes. ' Robert Shoch, of the M. Bice Co., Philadelphia, took in New Orleans while swinging around the business cir- cle. A. F. Eilers, representative of Henry F. Michell Co., of Philadelphia, has been here for a few days. Mr. Eilers gave a short talk before the Horticultural Soi ciety on conditions as he had found them in the south. In the course of his remarks he said that the south in gen- eral was about 500 per cent better off in the way of horticulture now than it was a few years ago. Max Scheinuk has purchased lots at the corner of St. Charles avenue and Third street and will erect a thoroughly up-to-date flower display establishment. The site is in the center of the residen- tial section and on the main avenue of the city. The Metairie Ridge Nursery Co. is ex- pending $25,000 in improvements on its premises on Carondelet street. Mr. Pap- worth, the president, reports that all of the upper rooms have already been rented as offices. Peter Kaul is erecting a new office building at his nursery, 633 Cherokee street. E. F. July 24, 1919. The Florists^ Review 19 OBITUARY Charles Edwin Wingate. Charles Edwin Wingate, a well known florist in Lawrence, Mass., died at his home July 18, after a short illness. He was one of the oldest residents of Law- rence and was proprietor of a success- ful florists ' establishment, which he took over on his father's death. He was a member of the Freemasons, Elks, Odd Fellbws, Lawrence Florists' Association and other organizations, and is survived by six children, two sisters and flve grandchildren. Inter- ment was from his late home, 8 Fulton street, July 20, and a good number in the trade were noted among those present at the services. W. N. C. (George Anderson. With sadness, yet as a happy release, came the news that George Anderson died at his home^ at Fifty-second and Woodland avenue, West Philadelphia, Friday, July 18, at the age of 70 years, for George Anderson had long been a sufferer, unable to- do the work he liked or to enjoy the society of his friends. His death, esmaas a release from in* activity. George AnderM>n was one of Phila- delphia 's BueeeflBfol grow«i8. Comrasne- ing life as a meehanie, thoughifnl, in- telligent, hard woAingf (George Ander- son built hia plaee rapidly:: at a time when it Was possible to do so without ca^tkl. He was skillful and ingenious. Handy with tools, he could do himself and direct others how to do everything necessary in the construction and more especially in the heating of a green- house. Mr. Anderson was fond of say- ing that a worker in iron naturally turned to iron for everything he wanted, just as a worker in wood turned to wood for everything he wanted. As a grow- er George Anderson stood in the first rank. He produced good tea roses of tne Bon Silene type. He made a hit with Ulrich Brunner, so famous as a rose for cutting before the days of American Beauty. He grew Hydrangea otaksa so well that his stock was en- gaged long before Easter. He sold his own products, sending his best stock to the bon-ton shops and his other flowers to the less critical buyers. George Anderson was kindly in dis- position, always willing to help his brother florists. He was a good bowler and a clever shot. His funeral, to which members of the Society of Ameri- can Florists and the Philadelphia Flo- rists' Club were invited, was held at his home, 5203 Woodland avenue, July 23. Interment was at Mount Morah cemetery. Phil. Charles Mecky. Charles Mecky, a retired florist of Philadelphia, died at his home in that city July 17. He was 68. Mr. Mecky was extremely successful as a grower of pot plants. Hardy roses were his specialty. He also grew large quantities of blooming plants for Eas- ter, notably the Paris daisy, Chrysan- themum frutescens, which he did re- markably well, and soft-wooded spring plants, particularly geraniums. For years his place at Seventeenth street and Erie avenue was the spot where all the florists and jobbing gar- deners went for stock for planting out- doors. His pride was to grow his stock as well as it could be grown, and ex- tremely cool, so it would thrive when transplanted. Each spfing he sent out large wagons with double decks closely filled with plants, keeping this up right through the season. When his city property became too valuable for green- houses, Mr. Mecky sold tne ground and removed the houses to Lime Kiln pike near Haines street, where he built a fine place, putting his son, William Mecky, in charge. Mr. Mecky was quiet in manner and popular vidth those who knew him well. Mrs. Mecky survives her husband. Phil. George Humphreys. George Humphreys, of New York, died July 6 at his home, 61 Hamilton place, aged 61. Death was due to hardening of the arteries. He .was born in Canada, but had resided in New York for fifty years. He was general manager for Charles Thorley, with whose establish- ment he had been connected for twenty- five years. He leaves a wife and one son. John C. Sicht. John Conrad Bicht, of Sedalia, Mo., died at a local hospital July 10. He was 88 years old and had retired from business some time ago. Mr. Bicht was bom in Germany in 1831. He came to America in 1849 and settled in St. Louis, removing to Sedalia in p^869. H^is sur- vived by fo^ children, two sons and two daughters. >ni CLEVELAND, O. The Market. The demand for flowers last week was rather small, although the supply was not exceptionally large and most stock cleaned up every day. About the only surplus noticed was in sweet peas, but for the most part even they were cleaned up for funeral work. Gladioli have been arriving quite plentifully and have cleaned up nicely, although it looks as if the end of next week would see the market flooded. Centaureas have been arriving in greater quantity and better quality. A few calendulas are making their appear- ance and are bringing $3 per hundred. But few asters are coming in, as the early crop is a failure this year and it is still too early for the late crop. Carnations are over with and roses are coming in slowly. American Beau- ties are arriving daily, but only in the longer grades. A few .Japanese lilies are in the market, but the big cut has not made its appearance as yet. Various Notes. The florists' picnic was held July 23 and all florists closed at noon to at- tend. William Connors, of the Ohio Floral Co., has a new Ford touring car. John Kirehner made a business trip to Chicago last week. Martin Orban is preparing to open a new store on Buckeye road near East One Hundred Sixteenth street. George Potter made a business trip to Pittsburgh over Sunday. Mr. and Mrs. F. C. Witthuhn and Mr. and Mrs. L. Utzinger have gone on a month's vacation, taking a trip up the St. Lawrence river to Thousand islands, etc. Mrs. A. Nosek, of 5307 Broadway, re- ports that she has put her place up for sale, owing to her inability to take care of the business alone, because of her age. ___. W. F. B. The United Floral & Nurseries Co., 1110 Hippodrome building, has incor- porated to carry on a wholesale and re- tail business in cut flowers, pot, plants, ribbons, baskets — in fact, it will carry a complete line for florists. There will be a landscape department, of which Ealph W. Walton will be the head. The company's greenhouses and nurseries will be at Mentor and the houses will be built as soon as possible. Lord & Bum- ham Co. now has the plans in hand. J. J. Keck is president and general man- ager of the concern. John J. Moore is vice-president, secretary and counselor of the company. 0. E. Heberling, who has had thirty years' experience as a seed dealer, is also on the staff. H. H. McCobb, a graduate of the agricultural department of the University of Maine, is treasurer. BBIDOEFOBT, CONN. The Market. For several weeks Bridgeport has suf- fered from a dry spell and quantities of outdoor flowers are of poor quality on this account. Bain has fallen in tor- rents the greater part of the last few days and this is also spoiling them. It makes asters slow; however, some good blooms are to be had. Although .carna- tions are smalt, a few are still to b^ ha^^ F|orists are keeping them until asters are more abundant. The supply of gladioli is increasing steadily. Boses are in fair supply. Other flowers noticed arc delphiniums, calendulas, daisies, sweet peas, mignonette, stocks, etc., all of which move well. Altliough the dull midsummer season is with us, most of the trade report business most satisfactory for this time of year. A number of weddings are still taking place and, although few of them call for elaborate decorations, wedding bouquets are constantly in de- mand. There are also a number of calls for funeral designs. Various Notes. Eobert Hawkins furnished the elabo- rate decorations for the Nichols-Cham- berlain wedding, which took place last week. The dining room was decorated with pink roses, larkspur and blue delphinium, the library with pink ram- blers and Killamey roses and the liv- ing room, in which the ceremony was performed, with white roses and palms. The bride's bouquet was made of or- chids and lily of the valley. John Reck & Son furnished bouquets for a number of small weddings re- cently. James Horan & Son report funeral work as decidedly fine. They had calls for a number of large pieces last week. The Park Garden & Flowjer Shop iS cutting some splendid gladioli. The re- cent heavy rains spoiled some of the firm's outdoor blooms. James E. Beach is on his vacation. He is taking a ten-day trip by automo- bile and boat and will visit Niagara Falls, Thousand islands, Quebec and other points of interest. This firm re- ports a scarcity of flowers. Asters are slow in blooming and when they do bloom they come in bunches. I. L. B. 20 The Florists^ Review Jolt 24, 1010. i Bstobllshed, 1897, by Q. L. GRANT.

There is little diminution in sales, in spite of summer, where the retailers are pushing trade actively. Have you an apprentice in your green- houses, or do you count on hiring a com- petent grower of some one's else train- ing t It looks to a great many people as though the continued rise in prices is merely a case of getting while the getting is good>> 1 • i> ^'■'' "" • There has bden ample warning that a coal famine is impending. Any growe^ who gets caught will have only himself to blame. The man who has been putting off building because it costs too much will have to wait until the demand for flowers is a good deal less than now. W. F. GuDE and Mrs. Gude, "Washing- ton, were at Victoria, B. C, July 18. They expect to attend the S. A. F. con- vention on their way home. Beports of generous buying in all lines of trade are good tidings to florists. When money flows easily, an abundant share will run into the flower stores. The two roses, Bussell and Premier, are bo near alike in color that one won- ders that so many growers should have planted the latter without having cut down on the former. While the trade has been getting bet- ter prices for its products, it must be re- membered that the cost of growing, and marketing them has risen too. There is still the need of care to eliminate waste in order to make returns really profitable. The Want pages of The Eeview have been growing so rapidly that now they hold interest for readers second in number only to those who consult the Classified ads before they send an order anywhere for plants. It pays to watch the Wants. For a grower who has confidence in the quality of his carnations or other bunched flowers, trade-marking them is easy. All the grower has to do is to tie his bunches with the advertising tape used by retailers ; it can be had with the grow- er's name printed on it every few inches. Anyone who does not know where to get it can write The Review. Consideration for the other fellow in trade dealings is always a good invest- ment, and usually pays dividends in kind. A SLICK fellow can slip oi^e over in a *• horse trade and make a hatful of money,««t but he can't build up a business as a horse dealer that way. Earlt buying seems increasingly im- perative, the iliore one regards condi- tions in other lines of trade. The late comer is going to be a sad man. Tee petunia has become popular as a window-box plant, much more so this sea- son than ever before. It stands the storms better than you might expect. Advancement of any line of busi- ness seems to be in proportion to the organization within the trade. Another evidence of "in union there is strength." ANT EXTEBMINATOB WANTED. "Caa you tell us how to get rid of antsf" It is a question which comes to The Review time after time. Usu- ally there is a little explanatory note, like this: "They are in a bench where chrysanthemums are planted; they bur- row into the stems and the plant is gone. We need something to exter- minate the ants without injury to the plants or the cypress bench boards; there is no ant exterminator advertised in The Review, Can you help us out?" There are a number of so-called ant exterminators manufactured by com- panies in the disinfectant and insecti- cide business, but thus far The Review has not been able to locate a manufac- turer who has cared to advertise his product regularly. * If any reader uses effectively any of the proprietary articles, The Review will be pleased to learn its name and the name and address of its manufacturer. Or perhaps a reader has a home formula of his own he is willing to pass on. The white ant (termite) is the one that does the greatest damage and is hardest to exterminate. WHAT IS THE DBTS' FLOWEB? On the day that marked John Barley- corn's demise, daisies were in demand in some places for wearing in the but- tonholes of those who regretted his passing. Perhaps hope for his tempo- rary resuscitation between now and January 16, 1920, may lead those who desire such a respite before the long drought, to continue to wear the em- blem of their longing. Possibilities for the florists' trade might lie therein, could a flower be found for their op- ponents. But search fails to- reveal a flower for the drys. An old book says privet stands for prohibition, but the blooms on privet would hardly make good boutonnieres, while the fashion of wear- ing a sprig of privet would probably re- sult in damage to neighbors' hedges and little good to florists. The azalea, we are told, stands for temperance. But that is no better a selection for the purpose. If someone would undertake to estab- lish the wearing of a flower by the drys, why not gaillardias, coreopsis, feverfew or something similarly plenti- ful at the present timet Consider what a day June 30 might have been, had every person declared his predilections by wearing the flower of his side in his buttonhole. Corsages of the ^amblematic blooms would have adorned the parties that filled hotels and cabarets that ^ night. And the one party would have continued their boutonnieres for mourn- ing and the other for rejoicing and vic- tory. If there is any chance of a temporary let-down of the bars of prohibition, let's get a flower for the drys! UKE A PENDULUM? The rise and fall of demand and sup- ply, the quick reversals that are com- mon in J;his trade, often are likened to the swing of a peddulum. It is noted, too, that as with a pendulum, the longer and stronger the swing in one direction the longer and stronger the swing in the other, or, as an intrepid gentleman once remarked, ' ' the bigger they are the harder they fall." For years, ever since the production of stock became so large as t9 give add- ed fopce to the swing of the trade pen- dulum, there has been discussion of ways to regulate the swing. Stability is a highly desirable thing from many points of view, but it should not be forgotten that when the pendulum ceases to function the clock stops. ONE THJNG NOT HIOH KBCED The policy of The Eeview smlkyB has been to keep its charges, botKHJIor sub- scriptions and for advertisinj^JH^aee, as low as possible, to stay withinjHmeans of all who are interested. thH it has been a good policy is proved b^P^e fact that, at a time wbMt^many publications are unusually light, The Beview is doing much the largest summer business in its twenty years. It works like this: We will say that the Classified ads In The Review certainly do bring good results, espe- cially considering the small cost. — Krinc Bros., rairbnry, lU., July 15, 1919. If you hear a man complain of the cost of advertising you can be pretty certain he spends a good bit of money elsewhere than in The Review. OHJOAGO. The Market. There has been a further recession since last report, a falling off both in supply and in demand! 'fae market is distinctly dull. With most of those identified with this center, the cut flower business is scarcely greater than a year ago, and there are some who say they cannot even claim so much as that. The supply of stock is extremely light; there is little business, but not enough first- class flowers to take care of the small demand. It is difficult to fill satisfac- torily the orders which come in, and if there should be any sudden increase in the demand there would be disappoint- ments. The shipping business continues more active than the city trade. There is a good city demand on Saturday, the big day for the large number of small stores, and there is a good demand again on Monday, for the Saturday's pur- chases have either been sold or been lost and the stores have to restock on Monday. Shipping demand also is fair on Monday, but diminishes as the mid- dle of the week approaches, coming to life again on Friday. Of the small quantities of flowers coming into the market, a large percent- age are of extremely poor quality. There are only a few flowers which will meet 1910. The Florists^ Review 21 Offer a Large Cut of Rose Premier HE quality of Rose Premier is as the plants from which the flowers are cut attain age and size.

Most of the shipping orders call for roses and these are the beat flowers the season affords, which is not saying that all the roses are good. As a matter of fact, a large part of each day's receipts are the first cut from young plants and naturally have short and thin stems, small flowers, fre- quently wide open. There are, however, moderate quantities of good Russell and Columbia on long, strong stems. Premier has improved rapidly, the supply also having increased. Sunburst is scarce; many times Ophelia is used in its place. Outdoor carnations are seen in small quantities, but most of them are poor, while the indoor flowers, if clean, have become extremely small. Because of the shortage of flowers in general, the poor carnations are selling better than one might expect, and anything that is clean and at all good brings a price that should be highly satisfactory to the grower. Moderate quantities of asters are coming, but most of them show the effects of bad weather conditions. The aster crop is being ruined by the lack of ryin.

The Chicago cut flower commission men have had no notice in the matter as yet, but are wondering if the demands which may be made .upon them under the law -will necessitate an increase in the com- mission rate. F. M. Johnson says a remarkable thing is happening this July: The month, once considered a dull one in florists' supplies, will make a new rec- ord for shipments for the A. L. Randall Co., the billingi exceeding any month in the previous experience of the sup- plies department of the house. The Chicago Flower Growers' Asso- ciation has placed an order with Kroes- chell Bros. Ice Machine Co. for a re- frigerating machine to cool its two large storage boxes, the price of ice having risen until the artificial system shows increased advantages. John F. Broadbeck recently returned from service in the army and is running the greenhouses of his father, P. M. Broadbeck, in Evanston. That veteran rose grower was mightily relieved, not only to have the son safe home, but to turn the responsibilities of the place over to the younger man. It was hard to get help during the war and there were times when the owner ran the 40,- 000 feet of glass all alone for weeks at a stretch. A. L. Vaughan says that the CO. D. shipment of flowers no longer is a pro- tection to the wholesaler, the govern- ment-operated express company being slower to settle than the most hard- shelled debtor in the trade.

The demand is down to the usual sum- mer level. The retailers say that the only business they can depend upon now is funeral work and even this was not of much account during the last week. Still no complaints are heard, as all re- port the best season in years and rather welcome a few weeks of easy-going times. The market at present has little first- class stock of any kind, except in gla- dioli, which are abundant. The fancy varieties are keeping up in price, while the common sorts were jobbed off at low figures. Good roses are in demand, but only a few are coming in, with white scarce. The supply of Russell and Ophelia has fallen off greatly and the few coming in clean up quickly. Carnations are plen- tiful, but of poor quality. The fancies bring $3 per hundred, but of these only a few are arriving. Asters are coming in, but as yet the supply is limited. Amoag other out- door stock, single ever-blooming tube- rose spikes have made their appearance and the crop this year promises, as usual, to be heavy. These, with the usual crop of summer outdoor stock, make up the daily mar- ket. The demand for any and all kinds of greens has been large all season and is still so.

The florists' picnic, an event that is looked forward to eagerly, especially by the younger folks, took place July 17 at Ramona park. The crowd arrived at the grounds in the afternoon. The usual parade through the downtown district was not on the program this year and many were disappointed. The weather was fine, clear and cool. The attendance wgs largely .made up of the younger element, this year's event being marked by the absence of a great many of the older florists, who up to this year were regular in attendance at our annual outings. To the trustees of the Florists' Club, Messrs. Rowe, Windier and Lurie, is due a great deal of credit for the perfect ar- rangements and the way they handled the various, evepts in which the old and young florists took part. The reception committee this year was headed by J. F. Ammann, president of the S. A. F. He and his twenty-one able assistants handled the large crowd perfectly at the gate and on the grounds. WM. C.

This was especially true during the last event on the program, the much talked of baseball game between a team of wholesalers and one of retailers. A great deal of rivalry was shown even among the spectators, rooting for their favbrite team. Captain Hoffmann had charge of the retail team and Al Gumz of the whole- salers. Henry G. Berning and Oscar Ruff were the umpires and they cer- tainly had a hard time satisfying both sides. A full nine-inning game was played and it was full of excitement Jdlt 24. 1919.

I have sometimes wondered whether those who talked that way know that this is the hardest sea- son of the year for those who make their positions possible. There would be no traders, no salesmen, no clerks, without "stuff," and there would be no "stuff" without a lot of hard work under glass in summer. The other day I went so far as to tell a young salesman in whom I was interested that I thought he ought to work in the greenhouses for a couple of months in summer to learn something about the cost of production. He didn't like it; of course he didn't. It looked like trying to put one over on him. Yet such experience is the surest safe- Gladioli, Carnations WM. J.

A Chinese chest, strikingly decorated in tones of orange, formed the keynote of a floral display in Joseph's windows last week. It attracted much attention. In the chest was arranged a mass of in- tensely blue hydrangeas, summer lilac and fire-pokers, a color combination ex- ceptionally stunning.

This week we are recording a list of contributions to the publicity fund ap- proximating something over $1,200. This is a decided improvement over the lists of the last few weeks, but only about half ^f what an average list should be for every week in the year if we are to reach our goal of $100,000. As our fund-, stands now, we are many thousands/of dollars short of half the fund aimea at, and are more than half- way through the year. Next month our publicity committees will make their reports to the society's convention in Detroit, and unless con- tributions become more active in the intervening weeks, they will not be able to report the collection of at least half of the amount of the fund. At the convention the committees will i^eet jointly to discuss plans to contintie the publicity work during the fall and winter season, the summer sea- son already having been provided for. What amount of money are we going to place at their disposal for immediate use? It must be remembered that the production of flowers throughout next season promises to be abnormally large, consequently calling for greater effort to improve the demand for them, if we are to avoid gluts and obtain remunera- tive prices. Publicity, and lots of it, is needed more than ever. To get it we must have money. We are no longer buying "a pig in a poke." We know that we get a ipbgnificent return for the money we spend, and the more we spend the greater the return. We are addressing particularly those florists who have not yet sent in sub- scriptions. It is beyond our conception that they do not intend to contribute,, but why not send them in now, thus not only relieving the committees of uncer- tainty but permitting them to make their publicity plans in the best inter- ests of allt The plans now maturing may call for the immediate appropria- tion of as much as $20,000.

Two wedding decora- tions are scheduled by this firm, one for July 23 and the other for July 30. Charles Stappenbeck, proprietor of the American Florist store on Polk street, returned a short time ago from a rest of several weeks. He reported business normal. M. M. SPOKANE PICNIC. The Spokane Florists' Club held its second annual picnic at Manito park, Wednesday, July 9, with every grower and retailer represented. All retail stores closed at 1 p. m. The entire afternoon was spent in various games, with an interesting game of baseball be- tween the wholesalers and retailers, with a victory for the retailers. Score, 64 to 0.

Funerals and weddings are about all there is to furnish business. The counter trade since July 4 has put on its normal summer garb and is decided- ly slow. Good flowers are scarce except outdoor gladioli, and there are only a few varieties on the market, such as Salmon Queen and Halley. America and Mrs. Francis King have not yet put in an appearance. Various Notes. The Portland Floral Society met this week with a fairly good attendance. The state fair managers requested that the society let them know .as soon as possible how much space they could use in the floral exhibit at the state fair this year. They promised to have every- thing fixed up in fine shape for those who desire to make an exhibit. Secretary Van Kirk, who has been attending the Shriners' convention in Indianapolis, reported that the conven- tion will be held in Portland next year, and estimated that the number of vis- itors will probably exceed 70,000. He stated that it will be one of the great- est chances florists have ever had to furnish these eastern visitors with roses and other flowers. Mr. Strausse, manager of the Lubliner Flower Shop at 348 Washington street, has been spending his vacation in Walla Walla, Wash. The following were visitors in town during the week: Alfred Brown, of Brown Bros., Vancouver, B. C; A. Ling- ham, Puyallup, Wash., and George C. Perkins, of Jackson & Perkins Co., Inc., Newark, N. Y. \ James W. Huserik & Spns have a well- equipped }ilant for making all kinds of wire designs for florists' use. Messrs. Malmo, Bonncll and Benthien, all from Seattle, have been attending the convention of the Pacific Coast Nurserymen's Association, and took the opportunity while here of visiting the various florists' establishments in search of stock, of which they were short. James Forbes, of Martin & Forbes, ac- companied by several Seattle florists, were visitors at Sobolt's gladiolus gar- dens one day last week.

Take These Facts to Heart. Your good intentions will not help them any, unless you cash them in, by remitting to the secretary, without de- lay, your check for the amount you have decided to give. Keep the hall rolling. Do not for one moment think that be- cause you have seen a big list of sub- scribers to the amount of several thou- sand dollars, that amount is waiting to be expended. Our committees put the money to work as fast as it ]>iles up. They have no thought of using the funds to produce an income which will su])ply the publicity. They spend the fund it- self, every penny of it. So when you hesitate you delay the game. What is $100,000 among 20,000 florists? A thou- sand fruit grower.s recently raised that amount in a few weeks. The campaign is a good tiling for you and everybody else in tlie trade. It is doing what it was expected to do — in- crease the demand for flowers. It is endorsed by all live-wire florists of the country. It is waiting your support, through your contribution. The following subscriptions have been received and are in addition to those previously announced, annually frtr four years, unless otherwise stated: Jolict Floral Co., .Tolipt, 111.

Trade last week was paititnilarly satisfactory, on account of the heavy demand for funeral work, which was a welcome relief, after several weeks of midsummer dullness. The weather was slightly cooler than it had been for two months, and a generous shower helped considerably the latter part of the week to make the atmosphere more bearable. The wholesalers, especially, were well pleased with the week's business, as good stock in all lines cleaned up com- pletely. Some stock of the outdoor va- riety, which was of poor grade, found no market at all. There was a sliortage of roses, i)ar- ticularly in the better grades of Hooaier Beauty, Russell and Shawyer. A big improvement was also noted in these varieties. Such varieties as Ophelia and Columbia were short in supply. A moderate cut of the new rose, Premier, was on this market. The quality of this rose is steadily improving. The keeping qualities of carnations are somewhat better than they had been for several weeks, but the supply is getting lower and lower, and about another week will see the end of them for this season. They are bringing a retail price of 75 cents per dozen. Con- sidering the season of the year and their quality, this is a good price. A few rubi:um lilies are offered. Lily of the valley is practically off the mar- ket and cattleyas are exceptionally short in supply. Gladioli may properly be said to dominate the market. Mrs. Krancis King, America and Halley are the principal varieties, the latter being a big favorite this season, as it makes a splendid showing and is good to the end of the spike. Hydrangeas are also be- ing used to a largo extent for all large funeral orders and decorative work, such as country club parties, etc. A few dahlias, the first of the season, are ar- riving. Outdoor snapdragons are being offered and, outside of their shortness of stem, they are of fair quality. Outdoor sweet peas are of small proportions. Statice, delphinium, Shasta daisies and gypsophila are in excellent call and there is a large variety of other out- door flowers, such as gaillardia and coreopsis. Various Notes.

This firm has doubled its rose stock for the com- ing year and, besides. Premier, will grow Russell, Hoosier Beauty, Columbia, Shawyer, Ophelia and Sunburst. Fu- neral work made heavy inroads on stock here last week. Halley, the beautiful salmon-pink gladiolus, is being shown with much success at the store of Ed Wenninghoff.

Some of the early varieties, such as Pearls and Bermudas, have already been harvested and are so small it takes so many to make a bushel that the yield per acre has been reduced to a small amount. Good judges think there will be not more than three or four bushels of sets to a pound of seed planted, and some growers around Chicago contend that in certain sections, where there were no showers to speak of, the yield is even much smaller, so at the best they do not expect more than half a crop ot onion sets, and they may not turn out that good, so it looks as though onion sets should be good property this year.

The alleged reasons for these quaran- tines (under authority of the federal plant quarantine act of August 20, 1912) are three dangerous diseases, namely, flag smut, take-all, and the wheat nematode or eelworm, alleged to exist in said states and not heretofore widely Asparagus P.

WINTKR-FL<^ERING SPENCER and ORCHinHsWEET PEAS For GreenhoUM Use If you have been troubled with badly mixed Pea seeds, or immatured seed that does not grow, try our hand-picked seed. Bach pod is picked when ripe and ma- tured, instead of pulling up the vines and stacking them to cure, then thre.ih- ing them in a machine as most growers do. While picking by hand the fields get rogued almost daily, not only for oft colors but Winter flowering plants only are permitted to remain. Machine threshed seed has many mixed colors in it because it is impossible to clean the machine when changing from one color to another. Our system of hand-picking and hand-hulling does away with rogues and immatured seed. This seed is worth much more than others — but our prices are about the same: Mrs. A. A. Skach.

Curtis Nye Smith. THE DAinSH SEED INDUSTRY. Odense the Center. The Danish seed industry has its cen- ter in the district of Odense where the largest seed firm in Scandinavia has its main offices, warehouses and gardens, and where there is general interest among the farmers in seed raising. The dealers and seed growers there have been trained through many years and under- stand the importance of maintaining the high standard of the various strains known as Danish. The production of these seeds requires patience, industry and vigilance. The government helps in stimulating interest, financing con- trol, experimental stations and award- ing certificates for superior strains. The awards are published, and as the cer- tified seed has, of course, a better chance on the market, a healthy competition is encouraged. Climate Well Suited for Seed Raising. When the above-mentioned firm was first started in 1850, it was thought that the climate was not especially well suited for seed raising, but the reverse has been proved. Excellent strains of root crops, such as turnips, carrots and sugar beets, have been produced. Dan- ish cabbage seeds are now acknowledged superior in a number of foreign coun- tries, the head cabbage called Amager being a particularly well-kjiown and es- teemed strain.

The dry summer of 1918 naturally had its effect on the seed crop, especially the grass seed. Root seed, however, gave fairly satisfactory results. The acreage devoted to grass and root seed was considerably extended in 1918. How interest in seed growing has increased during the last ten years is shown by the following figures, which give the acreage of grass, root, vegetable and flower seed on Fyen island for 1909, 1914, 1918 and 1919:" 1909 1914 1918 1919 Crops Acres Acres Acres Acres Grass seed 3,700 4,900 7,400 7,400 Root seed 990 1,700 4,900 4,900 Vegetable seed t-'.W 1,200 4,400 3,000 Flower seed 2.") 74 124 370 Total 4,965 7,874 16,824 15,670 The acreages of grass and root seeds were greatly increased when live stock became so much more dependent on the Danish grass and root crops because of Wholesale Seed Grower Pepper.

The main advantage of these new Pansies over all hitherto existing Pansies is the extreme earliness of fiowermg and the unusual hardiness, which enables them to withstand quite severe Winters, and to bloom right on into the summer. Sown at the same time as other Pansies, they begin flowering the early part of March or as soon as the snow is off the ground, ma- y times having four or five large flowers to a plant, when all other Pansies are only showing buds. The flowers are large, well formed and fragrant. They are highly recommended for Autumn planting on graves, and for very early bedding, as well as for early cut flowers. 14. WINTER SUN.

The main varieties of grass seed grown are orchard grass, meadow fescue, Italian rye grass, English rye grass and brome grass. The cultivation of clover seems to have been neglected. There are ordinarily used annually in Denmark about 3,500,000 kilos (1 kilo = 2.2 pounds) of clover and other leguminous plant seeds, which are mainly imported. There have been doubts as to whether this supply would be obtainable this sea- son, but imports have recently been re- ceived, though not in the usual quan- tity. The high price will undoubtedly restrict the demand to less than normal. Of early r^d clover there are already three kinds available: Bohemian, of a good quality; Russian, of an inferior quality, and Hungarian, much tainted by clover silk. More is now awaited from America and France, but the sup- ply altogether is short. Late red clover has been imported from Sweden in suf- ficient quantities and of good quality. Of white clover there is more than a normal supply, but the quantity is in- ferior. Of alsike there is but one-third the customary quantity, and there is little prospect that more will be obtain- able. Imports from United States. The present supply of grass (exclud- ing clover), root and vegetable seeds is much more than enough for home use. In fact, the dealers have large quanti- ties stored, which, owing to trading dif- ficulties during the last two years, could not be exported to any extent. This does not apply to certain vegetable seeds which cannot be profitably raised there and are usually imported from the Unit- ed States. Among these are beans, cu- Cyclamen Seed Giant English Strain, in all colors. $9.00 per lOOO Pansy Seed Our Florists' Prize Mi.xtuie, S6.00 per ez.

The tree was planted with several others by Mr. Schlegel's father about fifty years ago. It was only through the intervention of John Dunbar, assistant superintendent of parks, that this tree was saved. Its botanical name is Tilia petiolaris. It is considered the most beautiful of all basswoods. H. J.

A new step was made in women's rights when the Pacific Coast Nurs- erymen's Association elected a woman as president at the annual election of officers, held the morning of July 10, in the Chamber of Commerce building, at Portland, Ore. Mrs. K. Day is the new president. She is manager of the Leigh Overman Nursery Co., of Spokane, Wash. The other officers elected were: Vice- presidents, Fred W. May, Yakima, Wash.; Albert Brownell, Portland, Ore.; M. R. Jackson, Fresno, Cal.; C. A. T. Atwood, British Columbia; C. T. Hawkes, Caldwell, Idaho, and B. H. Bowers, Prove, Utah. Secretary-treasur- er, C. A. Tonneson, Tacoma, Wash. Members of executive committee, S. A. Miller, Milton, Ore.; C. J. Atwood, Top- penish, Wash., and J. Snyder, We- natchee. Wash. The meeting place for the eighteenth annual convention, in 1920, will be Spokane, Wash., as requested by the new president. Advance in Prices the Theme. The convention was an important one for many reasons. A rise in the price of nursery stock to meet the increased cost of production and to yield, a com- mensurate profit was the keynote of the convention. Government statistics show that other staples have increased ninety-eight por cent in price, while gar- den and nursery stock have remained practically the same. As one statement had it: "Following years of depressed business conditions, the general demand for stock has at last overtaken and sur- passed the supply, a fact that compels advance in prices." The First Day. The opening session was held Tues- day morning, July 8. President C. J. Atwood, of Toppenish, Wash., opened it with a short address. Reports by the vice-presidents and chairmen of the various committees were then read and commented upon. The topics most warmly discussed were uniform laws, state legislation, transportation aad landscape work. The afternoon session was long and interesting. A. Brownell, of Portland, of the committee on the elimination of undesirable varieties of nursery stock, read an instructive paper on that sub- ject. President Atwood then read his annual address. It was full of en- couragement and praise for the work of the coast nurserymen last year. With regard to the advancing of prices he had this to say: ' * All we need is the nerve to ask that to which we are justly entitled, con- sidering the investments we have made, the risks we are called upon to take and the present-day costs, which have practically doubled." H. A. Lewis, M. McDonald, John Mikelsen and A. T. Gossman took part in a joint discussion on * ' Higher Retail Prices and Why." They thoroughly convinced their hearers of the justice and necessity of raising the prices. "Better Plans for Cooperation in Sell- ing" was dealt with jointly by E. A. Bennett, C. D. Hobbs and I. A. Gale. A third discussion was on "Style and Stock." Mrs. R. Day, Lee Benedict and C. Malmo took part in this. Stock Shortage Cause of Worry. A big item for discussion and worry on the part of the northwest nursery- men was the stock shortage of this year.

The general opinion among the nurserymen as to how this problem could, best be met was that each nurseryman should cut down on his plantings so that the orders might be distributed equally. Beautification of Home Grounds. The beautifying of grounds on and about homes, in both city and country, was a universally interesting topic. The nurserymen considered it a highly important item, in connection with the increasing love of the American people for beautiful homes, and for this reason appointed a committee to devise a plan for educational work, whereby orna- mental planting about homes might be more fostered.

The Market. The demand for stock in this market is fairly steady and active and, as a result, business is fairly good for the time of the year. Eeceipts are not heavy and all good stock that comes into the market generally sells readily. Rose receipts are fair and generally sell well. Asters are coming along nicely and have been meeting with a ready sale. Some excellent Easter lilies and rubrum lilies may be had. Gladioli are fairly plentiful. Among other offer- ings are water lilies, snapdragons and candytuft. Greens of all kinds are selling pretty well. New green galax and new green leucothoe are in the market and are meeting with a good demand. Various Notes. Joseph Grimme, formerly with R. Ruttle, of Covington, Ky., was dis- charged from the army Saturday, July 19, having seen active service with the A. E. F. in France. H. W. Sheppard has recovered suffi- ciently so that now he is able to be about his home. August Hoffmeister has been cutting some excellent Easter lilies, from out- doors, on his farm at Amelia, O. He has arranged to again operate his green- houses at Lick Run. C. E, Critchell had the first of his receipts of the new cut of green galax and leucothoe last week, Among recent visitors were Jos. Hill, Richmond, Ind ; Fred Rupp, Lawrence- burg, Ind., and Jos. R. Goldman, Middle- town, O. C. H. H. Miss M. M. Carroll, of Norwood, is on the way to recovery after her long sick- ness. She went to the hospital last February, was operated on in March and is just now convalescing. While con- valescing she became interested and in- vested in Texas oil stock, which, she says, has been a good investment. Growers, Attention!

GreenhoMse Heating Subscribers are invited to write the Editor of this Department with regard to any details of greenhouse heating that are not understood. When information is desired regarding the capacity of boil- ers, or the amount of radiation required for a greenhouse, the needed temperatures should be stated in the inquiry, as- well as the amount of glass in the side walls, and the dimensions and general arrange- ment of the greenhouses. It is often help- ful, also, to have a sketch showing the location of the houses. EXPORTS MAY SHORTEN COAL. The rise in price of 6 shillings (about $1.50) per ton on every kind of coal in Great Britain is causing the retailers of America in the coal trade to wonder if they are to have enough for the de- mand at home next winter. They fear the big dealers will listen to the large profits in exporting coal and leave the folks at home cold when winter comes. Of course, it would not pay United States exporters to endeavor to compete in England 's market, for the freight cost from New York to Liverpool is so heavy that $33 per ton is as low as American coal could be sold in British markets. But, on the other hand, Italy, to which England ships much coal, pays a heavy freight charge to Mediterranean ports. If American coal exporters get a fair freight rate to southern Europe, the British price is now so high that our coal would find tremendous markets in Italy and her neighbors. If such prospect of good profits abroad attracts much coal from our country, then, in the words of the popular song, "Heaven help the U. S. A." For every- one must know by this time that be- tween the slow buying and the labor shortage the outlook is far from propi- tious for coal consumers in this country. If to these causes of shortage is added that created by exportation of large quantities of coal, those who have not bought next winter's coal already are going to have some difficulties in find- ing fuel about the latter half of the winter. HEATINO TWO GREENHOUSES We have a tubular boiler, eight feet long and thirty-four inches in diameter. We wish to heat two greenhouses, each 30x300 and ten feet high to the ridge, with solid side walls three feet high. We should like to keep up a temperature of 55 degrees when it is 10 degrees below zero. Will one 5-ineh flow pipe from boiler supply five 4-ineh flow pipes, each one to have two returns into a 5-inch return to boilert J. H. S. — Ind. Our suggestion for piping each of the two houses described would be to use five 21^-inch flow pipes. We would place one upon each plate; another, two or three feet below the ridge, and the other two under the purlins. To make up the radiation required for zero weath- er, we would use ten 2-inch returns, connecting two with each flow pipe. If well above the boiler, good results could be obtained by means of three 2%-inch flow pipes, in which case thir- teen 2-inch returns will be needed. Con- nect four with each of the wall flows and five returns with the ridge flow.

This photograph shows a FARNSWORTH CONDENSATIQN PUMP on duty and the plunger type pump it has replac- ed. For simplicity in construction, ruggedness and adaptability, there is no question but that the Farnsworth pump is the ideal machine for the power plant. FARNSWORTH SUCCESS Means POWER PLANT EFFICIENCY. Our success in put- ting 200,000 H. P. machines in action last year meant coal saving success for the engineers in the boiler rooms and a saving of fuel and m o.'n e y for the owners. THIS FARNSWORTH SIMPLEX CONDENSATION PUMP USES 70% TO 90% LESS [STEAM THAN THE ORDINARY PISTON OR CENTRIFUGAL PUMP. It is one of the number of machines which make the FARNS- WORTH CLOSED SYSTEM the ideal method of handling condensation. It is the NEW WAY and the best way. This shows the front view of the Farnsworih Duole.v Boiler Keed pump, with duplex receivins and delivery check valves. Hlace this machine above your boilers Discharge all your high pressure traps directly into it. Any L. P. condensation yau have in scattered buildings drains to a Karnswnrth Condensation pump, which will pump it to this Dupltx Boiler fee<)er. By this closed system all condensation is he d under pressure and fed directly into boilers at a high temperature. FARNSWORTH DUPLEX BOILER FEEDER 'The Greatest Coal Saver Ever Offered The Steam Plant." Why FARNSWORTH MACHINES excel in service 1. Because they conserTe the heat units in the condensation. 2. Provide better heatingr or dry- ing by clearing the water out of the heating system or heated (pparatus. 3. Full a vacuum on slufTKi'h re- turn lines, clear the water and pro- vide a free circulation of steam. 4. Inaddition topullinfr a vacuum, the condensation is held under pres- sure and pumped under pressure directly into the b«iler at a high temperature. 6. Eliminate piston or ccntrifapal type boiler feed pumps, feed water heaters, vacuum pumps, receiving tanks, floor space for the above men- tioned, considerable piping, pipe cov- ering, lubricating oils, packing, etc. 6. Feed water into boilers much hotter than pumps can or will han- (•le it. 7. Prevent loss of heat units going op the vent pipe from receiving tanks. 8 Prevent loss of heat units going down the sewer from the overflow pipe of the average low pressure open teed water heater. 9. Use 75 to 90 per cent less steam than a piston or centrifugal type pump. 0. Feed condensation from high pressure traps, coils or heated appa- ratu'' directly into the boiler at a temperature over 300 degiees. 11. Create better circulation through heating system or heated apparatus so that less oack pressure can be carried on the exhaust line of the engine. 12 Provide closed system and drain condensate under pressure so that no heat units are lost by reduc- ing pr ssure befoie the water enters the boiler. 13. Drain vacutim systems, elim- inate the vacuum pump and the necessity of operatinu high pressure boilers on vacuum systems. 14. Pull a higher vacuum on heat- ing systems than any vacuum pump. 15. Use 90 per cent less steam than vacuum pumps. -;*'li«ttv cMCtft- This machine drains L. P. Condensation until tank is full, then it rocks on bearing and automatically opens small valve, which admits boi er pressure steam that forces the water into boiler, or if used as pump in dis- tant building, will pump the water to any point of use.

A 5-inch main flow -would answer for each house, but there will be no occa- sion for using five 4-inch flows within the houses. Two would be ample, but would be less desirable than five 2^2- inch flows. UPHII.T. FLOW SYSTEM Enclosed you will find a sketch of six houses, with dimensions. I should like to know if the heating system will work all right if the flow pipes are run just above the ground on a gradual uphill grade to the far west end of the houses, and the returns back just below them to the boiler. Or would it be better to have the high point at the boiler and carry the flow pipes on the gutter posts? We should like to have all the pipes next to the ground, as the flow pipes will be in the way at the east entrances if thoy are carried overhead. We can sink the boiler to any depth necessary. You will note on the sketch that the houses are three feet above the boiler shed level at the southeast corner, six feet higher than the boiler shed level at the southwest corner, and three feet higher than the boiler shed level at the northwest corner. The gutters are seven feet high at the east end and four feet at the west end. E. F. Co. — Wash. The sketch shows six houses, 17x90, 17x90, 20x90, 27x90, 36x90 and 10x90. There are three 4-inch main flows. There is one 2i/^-inch flow pipe in the first three houses, two in the fourth, one 2%-inch and three 2-inch in the fifth and one 2-ineh in the sixth house.

Business has been light, with no weddings or social functions of any kind and comparatively few funer- als. Prices are all low, with no active demand for anything. Carnations con- tinue to fall off; roses are passing, but sweet peas and asters are filling all gaps in the offerings. Various Notes. Lucien J.

Transient trade is dull at the present time. Funerals, with occasional weddings, make up the bulk of the trade. Notwith- standing the high prices which pre- vailed throughout last season, and many other hindrances to trade, most of the florists had a good year. The slack in business now, which is customary, gives them a breathing spell and enables them to get their stores in good condition for the coming season. Most of them think it will be an exceptionally good one. Growers are planning on bigger produc- tion than they did last year, because of peace and better business conditions. Various Notes. The S. A. Eogers Nursery Co., Broad street, reports the outlook good for the coming season. This company is get- ting its new nursery at Liberty Corners, N. J., into good condition. Charles Witheridge, 532 Broad street, reports business good for this season of the year. E. B. M.

The monthly meeting of the Nassau County Horticultural Society was held in Pembroke hall July 9. President Joseph Adler presided. Floyd Blowers, of East Norwich, and William Waraksa, of Glen Cove, were elected to active membership. A fine display of sweet peas, with ex- ceptionally fine blooms and long stems, was on exhibition. There was good competition in each of the classes. James MacDonald, William McLeod and Sam Trepess were appointed to judge the exhibits. The awards, on twenty-five sprays of pink sweet peas, twenty-five sprays of white and twenty-five of any other color, were all won by William Noonan. The F. A. Bartlett special prize for the best six vases of sweet peas, fifteen of each, was also won by Mr. Noonan, William Milstead taking second. Upon request, Mr. Noonan gave a short talk on his method of growing sweet peas, which proved interesting and instructive. Ed Harris was elected secretary for the remainder of the year, Ernest West- lake having resigned at the last meet- ing. It was decided to hold the annual basket picnic August 6 at Appleby's grove. If it rains, the picnic will be postponed to the following dry day. An admission of 25 cents will be charged to the men. The dahlia show will be at the Matine- orek Neighborhood house.

The Rorists' Review 97 BETTER Federal Greenhouse Cements are proving so wonderfully efficient because they pos- sess to a superlative degree just, those essentials which provide the greatest service to the greenhouse owner. A greenhouse cement, first of all, must be absolutely watertight and airtight^ it must work readily with glass and metal or wood, adhering tenaciously under all weather conditions; it must possess enough elasticity to take up all strains, due to windstorms, etc., as well as the normal contraction and expansion of the glass, wood or metal; it must possess resistance against sudden blows, such as hailstones; it must, above all, possess endurance, that quality which makes it last over a period of years without de- terioration. Federal Greenhouse Cements perform these functions, as well as many others, better than any materials you have ever used; if you once try them you will never be satisfied with any other brand. _We recommend the black as most effi- cient and, by \he way, 90 % of the green- house owners use our Federal Greenno.use Cement No. % which is (he black in a consistency suitable for use in the putty bulb. THAN PUTTY — and Why? The reason we recommend the black is because it is possible for us to use it as the primary base to certain pitches and gums, which possess marked elasticity and waterproofing qualities. Combining these gums and pitches, as we do, with suitable oils and reducing agents, and with high- grade asbestos fiber, produces cements which have an inherent strength abso- lutely defying weather and other condi- tions. In making colored and white cements, which are more expensive than the blacks, it is necessary to use., as pigments such materials as white lead, zinc, lithopone, barytes and similar materials. These pig- ments in themselves possess no water- proofing or other value except as metal and wood protectives. Cements made from them depend for their efficiency as greenhouse cements solely on the oils and other materials combined with them. Now, the oils which wo use, together with as- bestos fiber, which is a part of every one of our cements, enable us to make white and colored cements which are far better than the putties and other materials which you have hitherto used, and a good many of the greenhouse owners use them in preference to the black cement. We, however, urge you to use the black. For repairing broken lights, no matter how badly they may be broken, we recom- mend our black paste Federal Elastic Cement. For roofing work and for cover- ing the brick work of boiler settings we also recommend the paste consistency. In fact, the paste consistency is most ad- visable except where a thinner material is required in order to do work quickly and eflfectively. Federal Greenhouse Cements are sold at very reasonable prices. Their great success has brought numerous imitations on the market. Now is the time to start using Federal Greenhouse Cements. Glass is high and every other essential has risen to a de- gree making economies and conservation not only desirable but necessary. The use of Federal Greenhouse Cements will prove a step in the right direction and in a short time you will express your approval, as so many hundreds of others have done.

Troy, Ohio .^11 A Glazing Putty of Real Value In all our experience and investigation we had never found a preparation for bulbing over the outside of a greeo house that was quite satisfactory, until we ran across PERMANITE. This was about four years ago. At that time we set about investigating the merits of PERMANITE and proceeded to watch the results of its application to greenhouse roofs. Last year we were entirely convinced of its high quality and durability, and ac- cepted the western agency for the sale of these goods. We applied PERMANITE to hundreds of greenhouse roofs, over almost every part of the United States. The results obtained were highly satis- factory indeed. Glass roofs of all kinds, both old and new, were made water-tight and air-tight, saving thousands of plants from being spoiled by water dripping on them and saving many hundreds of tons of coal by making the roofs proof against the wind and storms of winter. We give PERMANITE our unqualified endorsement and recommend it highly for all kinds of glazing. We have a very large stock on hand in our warehouse and can ship imme- diately.

Your glazing radius, without shifting, is almost three times as far as it used to be. Think how much this means in time— what a saving of energy and effort. And there is no risk, no danger lo yourself or the glass because of slipping or rolling off'. There is no slowing up of the work either, because you must needs be extra careful. One hand to hold willi, one hand to work with. Just as fast as you can move your hand, just tliat fast is your glazing done. it's quick and sure and it's simple too. See how securely it hangs upon your arm. You can glaze all day long without tiring, for there is neither weight nor strain upon the wrist— the strong, sturdy muscles of the forearm do the work. You will never know real glazing satisfaction till you have tried this machine. This new Permanite One-Hand Glazing Gun is patented and controlled exclusively by u;;. Order yours today.

Most of it's gfospel truth. But don't forget! The way in which you handle your side ventilation— the kind of ventilating sash and the kind of apparatus— the side wall itself, and the nicety with which the sash and walls come together when the sash are closed is a matter of major importance. Side ventilation handled the AGMCO way will bear the closest studF, not that there is anything mysterious and involved about it, for there is not, but because of the simplicity of method and construction and the most absolute accuracy in adjustment of parts.

By the First of March 1920 Your New Rose House Should Look Like This ^ ^ By NEW house, we mean the one you are going to order for this Fall's erection, so that it will be all ready by March first. l^A your favor. That, then, is why we are booking more orders for Fall building than for Spring, You see we take it for granted that you are a convert to March rose planting, instead of the old July way. If you have figured it out, you have easily enough convinced yourself that the few spring months, seemingly lost by planting so early, are more than made up by the sales of the summer, when outside roses are over. But of greatest importance is the way such thoroughly established plants start blooming vigorously, early in the Fall, and yield bounteously just at a time when demand and prices are most in As for putting off ordering now, waiting until the last minute in the hope of lower prices; it looks as if you would be disappointed. Bear in mind the fact that we bought heavily of steel when prices were much lower. We will gladly give you the advantage of such prices, provided your order is placed on or before September 10th. Delivery date can be of your own choosing. Now is none too soon to start talking things over. Say when and where, and we'll be there.

Atlee Burpee. Since then the House of Burpee has introduced over two hundred distinct new varieties, each an improve- ment on the past. And by constant hybridizing for the last ten years we have developed the new Fordhook Early-flowering strain of Spencei &> weet Peas.

The Florists' Review Yes, it's Warm, but if you 7 It will Pay You Well It is time the old-fashioned idea Florists can not do business in summer was forgotten. There has been a great change in recent years and it has been proved Florists who TRY — those who keep pushing — CAN do business all the year around. We know this is true because— July has been the Biggest Month in the history of our Supply Department (Larger even than November 6t December, heretofore the biggest months in Florists' Supplies) July has been big with us because we have pushed the manufacture and sale of merchandise— and because our customers— including most of the successful Florists of the United States— also have pushed their sales. August will he just as good, or better, if we all work to make it so. Fall Buying has not yet begun in earnest Every line of the so-called luxury trades in America is booming — nobody ever saw the like. We are doing a record business, but Florists are buying mostly for cur- rent needs, not for next Fall and Winter. Merchandise will be scarce next winter and NOT cheaper in price. All signs point to advances. It is high time orders were being placed for Fall, The Florist who gets his goods now will pay no more, if as much, and next winter he will be pushing his selling when the other fellow is spending his time hunting for merchandise or waiting for it to come.

He sees the problem with perspective — and as a whole. HEEE is, of course, no set answer* that could be made to Mr. Elberfield's ques- tion. If he wished to ad- vertise by giving some roses to every member of the club, the best plan would have been to have delivered the flowers to each person. In that way he would have been sure that every member was advertised to in the man- ner intended. As it was, the stunt was lost on over half the members. Generally speaking, however, in a free distribution of merchandise of this kind for advertising purposes, it is the best policy to make each recipient come to the store for her share. Nearly always the object of such advertising is to get people into the store. If they do not think enough of the proffered article to come after it, there is no end to be gained in forcing it on them. In itself, giv- ing away goods is not good merchandising. Unless it leads to something else, it is a waste of money. What it is supposed to lead to is getting people into the store. They thus get ac- quainted with the estab- lishment, may buy some- thing while they are there and lay the foundation for future visits. Getting people into the store is the object of most retail advertising. That is what price-cutters have in mind. They are not foolish enough to believe that they can make any money by cutting prices. They feel, however, that the reduced price, especially if it be on some well-known brand, will lure many people into the • establishment to pur- chase and that when there they will buy other things on which the store does make money. By the Editor of PRINTERS' INK them to visit the store. It is not eco- nomically sound. There are other ways that the progressive merchant can em- ploy to get people in his place of busi- ness, which are more effective, at least in the long run. One of the best methods is to get customers into the habit of visiting the store whenever they want anything that it sells. That observation sounds bromidic, but in it is summed up the whole philosophy of good merchandising. Getting people into the habit of buying at a certain place, of course, presupposes that the store offers standard merchandise at fair prices and that its service is ade- quate. But that isn't all. It is also neces- G«ttiiig Buyers In. All are agreed that unless a concern is in the mail-or- der business, it is good policy to get all the persons possible into the store. We are not all agreed, however, on the methods to be used in getting people to come. Certainly, price-cutting is not tiie best way to get The Cause of the Comment AL^*i* €LmEmri-' ^.

Florists who have had experience with fish as a side line, in their window dec- orations, or in their private collections, have found that the care of them re- quires some study. It is not enough to give them water and food, as one would a pet dog or cat, and let it go at that. Success with fish is not attained at once.* There are a number of items to be con- sidered in caring for them, in order to produce the best results. One of these, and a most important one, is that of plants to be provided for the aquaria. Aquatic plants suitable for aquaria are indispensable for maintaining the life of the fish, possessing the power of generating oxygen. Pure oxygen is es- sential for fish, while carbon dioxide is a plant necessity; thus a balance is maintained, the oxygen given off by the plants being utilized by the fish, while the carbon dioxide exhaled by the fish is absorbed by the plants. Without this reciprocal relation it is impossible to attempt fish culture successfully. It has been repeatedly demonstrated by specialists that aquaria containing suf- ficient plant life may be tightly cov- ered, the plants giving off enough oxy- gen to support a proportionate number of fish. The feces excreted by the fish are absorbed by the plant roots as food. Best Ozygen-Gtonerating Plants. The ornamental value of plants in aquaria is another important feature. The plants used may be either native or tropical, placing stress upon those which possess to the largest degree oxygen- generating properties. The best plants for this purpose are pond-weed (Pota- mogeton crispus), fish-grass (Cabomba caroliniana), eel-grass (Vallisneria spir- alis), water-weed (Elodea canadensis), and ribbon arrowhead (Sagittaria sub- ulata). Pond-weed (Potamogeton crispus) is a native of Europe, forming greenish- brown growths. The leaves are lanceo- late with undulated margins and the flowers white. It is one of the best oxygen generators, but an exceedingly noxious weed in outside ponds. Fish-grass (Cabomba caroliniana) is a native of North America. The green leaves are produced in fan-shaped for- mation from the central stem, which reaches a length of four feet. The plant is quite attractive, but is a rather poor oxygen generator. Eel-grass (Vallisneria spiralis) is a grass-like plant, a native of North America, with strap-shaped leaves vary- ing from one to three feet in length, liffbt green in color, and translucent. The star-shaped, floating pistillate flow- ers are connected to the base of the plant by a long filament, which later becomes spiral, submerging the flower for fertilization. The staminate flowers are globular, produced at the base of the plant, from which they break away, ris- ing to the surface of the water. They float with the stream, pollen exposed, so that when contact occurs with the pis- tillate flowers, pollination readily takes place. This plant is a good oxygen gen- erator. Water-weed (Elodea canadensis var. gigantea) is a native of North America, moss-like im growth. The leaves are in whorls upon light green stems, which form strands reaching several feet in length. This is an excellent oxygen generator, growing completely sub- merged. It may become a pestiferous weed in lily ponds. Ribbon arrowhead (Sagittaria- subu- lata) is also a native of North America. The submerged leaves are equitant, strap-shaped, dark green, one foot in length. The growth above water bears lance or sagittate leaves. This plant is one of the most valuable for aquarium })urposes, multiplying rapidly by stolon- iferous growths and supplying a plenti- ful amount of oxygen. A noxious weed in ponds. A list of the plants most suitable for use in aquaria, compiled by the Missouri Botanical Garden, is given in tabular form on this page, with facts regarding their common names, habits and hab- itats. SCUM ON AQUABIUM. We have a circular pool twelve feet in diameter and two feet deep for gold- fish. We keep a small stream of water running nearly all the time, but the y)Ool has a green scum on the surface. We have a few plants of cyperus, in large pots, standing in the water. Is there any way of preventing this green scum on the water? F. B. — Ala. and where the current issuot too strong for it to grow. \ This scum has many useful purposes in aquaria and pools. It served as a natu- ral food for both fish and scavi^ngers and has medicinal properties beneficial to fish. As long as it is of a light green color and not too thick, it may be left in, but if it turns brown it is indicative of a dead and decaying condition and should be removed, and the aquarium or pool thoroughly cleaned. It may be removed from the plants by means of tweezers, the hand, or by entangling the growth about a stick. A small quantity of a solution of per- manganate of potassium in water, diluted to a claret wine color and then added to the water, will cause the entire disappearance, of the scum without in- jury to the animal life. WHEN TO PI.ANT LILY BULBS. I wish to inquire in regard to the best time to plant the bulbs of the candidum or Madonna lily. I have a large lot of small bulbs grown from scales, which I am anxious to plant so as to get the best possible growth for another year. As the growth starts in the late sum- mer, I assume that the earlier they are planted the bettei". Is it important that there should be a period of rest after the bulbs are taken up and if so, how long? it. L. McC— Mich. The formation of scum or algsB on aquaria and outdoor pools is simply a plant growth that comes on any body of water where there is life and light. The best time tor planting Lilium candidum is from iLugust 15 to October 1. This gives the^ bulbs a chance to make good growth before severe winter weather sets in. It is a good plan, after planting, to mulch the ground with a thin layer of partially rotted barnyard manure. This will keep the soil moist and hasten root action. If the inquirer's bulbs are still in the ground, it will be best to dig them up and lay them out to get a thorough drying, then plant again about Sep- tember 1. But do not allow the scales of the bulbs to shrivel at all. As soon as they show signs of doing this they will be better off in the ground. M. P. PLANTS SUITABLE FOR AQUARIA. Botanical name.

The Florists^ Review 13 the evening. This practice is not ef- fective against the chrysanthemum gall fly unless the house is absolutely tight. However, where nicotine sulphate is sprayed on the plants, the work may be (lone in the late afternoon or early even- ing. This application should be repeat- ed every second or third day for a pe- riod of a month or more. TOO MUCH LIME DETBIMENTAL. Is it possible for soil in a solid bed for chrysanthemums to be limed too often? The soil in our bed was put in from outside last spring, was limed twice before the chrysanthemums, were set, and then limed heavily again. Do you think this too much lime for the soil? L. A. E.— O. It seems to me that this is carrying the use of lime to the extreme, and I fail to see the object in applying it as often as stated by the inquirer. The principal purpose of using lime in the soil is to free it from any decayed matter which it contains in excess, and to start into action the elements of plant food. The excessive use of lime has a tendency to wear out the soil quickly and deprive it of all plant food. M. P. MOTH ON CHEYSANTHEMUMS. My greenhouses are infested with small, light yellow millers. They seem to be mostly in the chrysanthemum house. I have sprayed them with nico- tine and Paris green, and have fumi- gated with red pepper and tobacco dust, but there seemed to be just as many next morning. Will you kindly tell me what to do tQ get rid of the pest? C. V. W. The small, light yellow miller, as the inquirer calls the moth sent with his letter, is the pest that breeds the leaf- tyer, or worm that attacks the foliage of the chrysanthemum and which is proving so great a problem to the grow- ers. It means one continuous fight from one end of the season to the other. Some advocate fumigating with hydro- cyanic acid as the best means of getting rid of them, but at this season of the year, when the outside vegetation is also infested with the moths, unless the house is air-tight, the acid is not effective. Spraying with nicotine does not do much good, because it is washed off with syringing. The worms are chewing insects; so one must use some insecticide that will stick to the foliage to have any effect on them. Dusting the plants with Paris green mixed with finely sifted lime or wood ashes, blown through a bellows, will kill many of the worms, but it must be kept up and is not good on the operator. Spraying with arsenate of lead solution is per- haps the best means of keeping the pests in check. This insecticide may be obtained as a paste, which is the most convenient form of using it. Dis- solve the paste according to directions, stir well, then add enough sugar or syrup to sweeten to the worms' taste and cause the solution to stick to the under part of the foliage, where the worms attack the plants first. But when all is said in favor of spraying, the two surest means of getting the Isest of these leaf-tyers is hand-picking and clean culture. Make it a practice to go over each bench of plants every few days. Examine the leaves for any trace of the pests and pick them off. Then do not allow the plants to suffer from neglect in any way and keep the beds free of weeds. M. P. QALL FLY MAKES NIGHT WOSK. To combat the chrysanthemum gall fly or midge, the entomologists of the United States Department of Agricul- ture say that growers either must use nicotine sulphate as a spray or do some night work if they expect to prevent the damage done in greenhouses by this pest. The gall fly was not a pest in green- houses in the United States until two or three years ago, but now it has been re- ported by a number of chrysanthemum growers scattered over a wide area in this country. It causes unsightly galls on the leaves of chrysanthemums and curls or crumples them, thus reducing the vigor of the plant. This in turn affects the size, color and beauty of the bloom. Two ways have been found to elim- inate the gall fly — burning tobacco pa- per in the gr nhouses and spraying the plants with nicotine sulphate. The entomologists have found that fully ninety-five per cent of the gall flies emerge from the galls as adults after midnight. Consequently, where tobacco stems are burned as a means of control, the work must be done after midnight, since the fumes are effective for only a few hours, due to leakage. Most greenhouse men have been in the habit of fumigating about 6 o'clock in HIGH AIMS AKD AMBITIONS. Orison S. Marden, the author, once said: "Stick to those who are trying to do something in the world; people of high aims and lofty ambitions. Keep close to those who are in dead earnest. Ambition is contagious." Surely those words of wisdom emphasize most clearly the type of florist now growing rapidly all over the country; those florists who follow the methods of up-to-date mer- chants in other lines, and those who particularly are adapting themselves to the uses of publicity, both national and local. No man who has high aims or lofty ambitions can afford to be in the flower line and not be a subscriber to the na- tional fund. If he is in dead earnest in his desire to succeed he will keep close to those who are giving and are doing, and since, as we said, ' ' ambition is con- tagious," he will soon be one of the trail-blazers, taking part in the best thing florist^ have been able to do in a long time. When we look at the advertising in our trade paper's at the present time, doesn't it preach a sermon in itself? Doesn't it prove conclusively the con- fidence florists themselves are putting in the printed word, and doesn't it prove how close we can be to those who are in dead earnest in their effort to succeed? If you would be among this group, send in your subscription to the fund that will make our slogan, "Say It with Flowers," be heard all around the world.

THE CONVENTION PBOORAM. ■ The thirty-fifth annual convention of. the Society of American Florists, which will be held in Detroit, August 19 to 21, will be of exceptional interest and attrac- tion to the trade because it is the first meeting since the cessation of the war. What future months will bring out of the present abnormal commercial situation is an absorbing topic, which will draw many florists to Detroit. Of particular importance on the convention program is the publicity campaign, and the addresses of Major P. F. O'Keefe, of Boston, and Payne Jennings, of Chicago, on the subject, "Publicity," will be heard with interest by many. There are a number of amend- ments to the constitution and by-laws which will be acted upon; these include the abandoning of the convention garden, the extension of the affiliation of local or- ganizations, the increase of the annual membership fee from $3 to $5 and that of the life membership fee from $25 to $50, and the change back to the old method of selecting the meeting place one year ahead instead of two years ahead. The Detroit Florists' Club is making generous preparations for the welcome of visitors, par- ticularly Friday, August 22, when a day's outing at Belle Isle holds a variety of entertainment in store for the visitors.

Of the proposed amendments to the con- stitution and by-laws of the S. A. F., one is merely the insertion of the by-law under which the national flower show committee has acted, and which was by an oversight not ordered to be inserted in the constitution and by-laws of 1912; another removes the convention garden committee from the standing commit- tees; and one, also arising from the abandoning of the convention garden, changes the time of selection of meeting place from two years to only one year before the time of meeting, this year no action being taken, because Cleveland is the choice for next year already. More important is the amendment pro- posed to article II, section 2, governing elections and appointments, which ex- tends the number of local clubs able to affiliate with the S. A. F. by reducing the number of members necessary for such an organization in states where the population is less than in those at which clubs have already joined. The amended paragraph governing the affiliation plan will, if adopted as it stands, read: (c) Societies or kindred organizations of profes- sional florists, gardeners and horticulturists, national in character, whose membership includes one hundred or more members of the S. A. F. in good standing, shall be entitled to one repre- sentative on the board of directors. Clubs and other organizations of professional florists, formed within a state, and not national in character, shall be entitled to one representative on the board of directors, provided that any such club or organization shall include in Its membership the number of S. A. F. members in good standing prescribed in the following specification: Class A, 100 S. A. F. Members— Massachusetts, New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Ohio, Illinois. California. Class B, 75 S. A. F. Members— Indiana, Michi. gan, Iowa, Missouri, Texas, Maryland, Wisconsin. Class C, 50 S. A. F. Members — Minnesota. Kansas, District of Columbia, Kentucky, Ten- nessee, Colorado, Connecticut. Class D, 25 S. A. F. Members— Maine, New Hampshire, Vermont, Rhode Island, North Da- kota, South Dakota, Nebraska, Delaware, West Virginia, Virginia, North Carolina, South Caro- lina, Georgia, Florida, Alabama, Mississippi, Arkansas. I^uisiana, Oklahoma, Montana, Idaho, Wyoming, New Mexico, Arizona, Utah, Nevada, Washington, Oregon. Any such representative shall be the president of the organization represented, and must be a member of this society. Any elective officer or appointed director shall not be eligible as a rep- resentative of any such organization. When the president of an organization is already a direc- tor, the vice-president shall be eligible for the office. Any organization applying for representa- tion shall submit to the secretary of this society a certified copy of the resolutions adopted by their organization expressing its desire for such representation on the board of directors, together with a complete list of its membership. It shall be the secretary's duty to confirm same and submit it to the society's president for final confirmation. Announcement of the acceptance of such representative as a member of the board of directors shall be made by the president. The expenses of any such representative in connection with his attendance at any meeting of the board of directors shall be boitie by the organization represented. The dues are to be raised by the amendment of article IV, section 2, which, if adopted as it stands, will read: Fees and assessments. Any eligible person may become a member of the society on the payment of $5, and such payment shall cover the annual dues for the balance of the calendar year. The annual dues shall be $5 per year, payable In advance on the first day of January. Any annual member In good standing may become • life member on payment of $50 and be exempt from all future assessments. The following recommendation of the executive board is to be voted upon: That the sum of $5,000 be appropriated to the publicity campaign, to be used only If needed during the year's campaign. July 31, 1919. The Floats' Review 15 CLEVEI.AND TO DETROIT. Th' committee of the Cleveland Flo- rists' Club, composed of Walter E. Cook, James McLaughlin and M, A. Vinson, has reserved 100 staterooms on the De- troit boat which leaves Cleveland Mon- day night, August 18, at 10:45 p. m.

The schedule of the tenth annual ex- hibition of the American Gladiolus So- ciety, to be held at Arcadia auditorium, Detroit, during the S. A. F. convention, August 19 to 21, has been issued. There are forty classes open to commercial growers, and fifty-six classes for ama- teurs. President A. E. Kunderd, of Goshen, Ind., provides prizes for twenty- one classes. Copies of the schedule may be obtained from Secretary A. C. Beal, 212 Kelvin place, Ithaca, N. Y. DETROIT, MICH. Impojitant Meeting Called. There will be an important joint meet- ing of the Detroit Florists ' Club and the Ladies' Auxiliary of the club at 8 o'clock, Friday evening, August 1, at Hotel Statler, Henry II parlor, on the ballroom floor. A large attendance is hoped for, as matters of vital importance in connection with the S.^A. F. convention are to be discussed and decided. Ten committees that were appointed on different features of the program have been working hard on their as- signed duties and their reports will be made at this meeting. BRITISH FLORISTS FEEL BOOM. The heavy demand and high prices for flowers is not limited to the United States alone. A British contemporary speaks of the high tide of post-war pros- perity across the water as follows: "The ordinary outdoor flowers char- acteristic of the season are only pur- chasable in the market at prices which must amaze the older salesmen, whose memory goes back over a series of years previous to the war. It is doubtful whether there will be a glut of flowers next year, because not every grower will be able to get all his ground cleaned, prepared and planted in readiness for next season's sales; but the present high prices will induce many to start the cul- tivation of hardy flowers for market, while the elder brethren will do their best to "be prepared." Anyway, there is a wide margin between present rates and a price that is much lower and still . profitable. A man with first-rate gail- lardias might almost buy the freehold of the plot with the returns from the crop. Florists in a large way of business can not afford to risk the markets and so, in many cases, they order stuff a day or two ahead and 'hang the expense.' " PLANTS IN CARNATION HOUSE. I should like to have some informa- tion regarding the growing of carna- tions and plants that may be grown in the same house. My greenhouse is small, but I would like to grow some sweet peas, jonquils, daffodils, cyclamens and other plants which would thrive in the same temperature as carnations. Will you kindly make some suggestions? Mrs. H. L. O.— Mo. Sweet peas, snapdragons, calendulas, chrysanthemums, calla lilies, stevias and gladioli will all grow well in the same house with carnations. Put the callas in the warmest section and keep the calendulas and the stevias in the coolest end. In potted plants you might grow Begonia Gloire de Chatelaine, primulas — chinensis and obconica as HAVE YOU YOUR ROOM? The demand for hotel accommo- dations during the week of the S. A. F. convention at Detroit is so heavy that no room may be avail- able if reservations are delayed too long. The late comers will find it hard, if not impossible, to be properly accommodated. Al- ready the Hotel Statler is making arrangements to put many beds in some of the big sample rooms. J. F. Sullivan, Pres. Detroit Florists ' Club. A list of the leading hotels and their rates was published on page 14 of last week's issue of The Eeview. Send in your reservation at once. well as the beautiful malacoides — cinerarias, pelargoniums and most of the numerous class of bedding plants. You can force imported bulbs by utiliz- ing the warm corners of your house. Cyclamens want a little more warmth than is best for carnations. Do not try to grow too great a variety of plants in a small space. Better grow a fair quan- tity of each and do it well. A. F. J. B. NEW YORK. The Market. Nine days of downpour, followed by high, humid temperature, ending in a terrific thunderstorm on Saturday night, July 26, have cut down the supply of outdoor flowers to a large extent. How- ever, there is still more than can be moved at fair profit. Ho-t, huraid weath- er is continuing without promise of abatement, and shipments of both in- door and outdoor stock suffer consider- ably. The general demand, however, is at the minimum and about what might be expected at this season. Neverthe- less, there is plenty of fairly good stock available for first-class trade. American Beauty roses are in good supply, but the quality is mediocre, with the bulk of specials lacking quality. When the best flowers are selected the balance do not command high figures. Hybrid tea roSes are plentiful, but most arrivals show the effect of the hot weather. Good stock moves fairly well, but open flowers command little atten- tion and move for whatever can be ob- tained for them. The street peddler is having his wants supplied when he is willing to take a chance. Carnations are not plentiful and such as arrive are inferior in quality and attract little attention. Most growers have cleaned out their benches prepara- tory to replanting. Many inquiries are in evidence for field-grown plants, and it is quite likely that there will be a shortage in supply this season. Cattleya orchids are in short supply and consequently clean out well, al- though the demand for them is not great. A few Easter lilies are coming in, but, unless for funeral work, there is little call for them. Valley is also available, but in small quantities. Easter lilies command from $8 to $10 per hundred and valley, when good, $5 to $12 per hundred. Gladioli are coming in great quantity. The large growers are now swelling the flood with heavy shipments, and prices suffer somewhat in consequence. ^The best grades bring as high as 75 cents per dozen stalks, and inferior grades and varieties as low as 25 cents and even lower on clearances. Coreopsis, gail- lardias, antirrhinums, centaureas and delphiniums are plentiful. They are used mainly for store window decora- tions. Some good Delphinium Bella- donna is arriving from pot-grown plants outside. A few sweet peas are still com- ing, but the quality is poor and sales light. Asters are not in exceedingly heavy supply and really good flowers are scarce. The range of prices is about 50 cents to $3 per hundred. Various Notes. Antonio Martin, of the firm of Car- ballo & Martin, Havana, Cuba, who has been here for several weeks, has made side trips to Philadelphia and Atlantic City. He expects to leave for home this week. He has expressed much interest in the publicity campaign, and is using the slogan in Spanish in much of the firm 's advertising. A new delivery auto- mobile, which will go into service on his return, will carry the slogan in the Spanish form nearest to the message, "Insinuese con Floras." While here he has purchased a large variety of stock for use in the firm's business, which is the largest of its kind in Cuba. The Detroit convention continues to be an interesting topic of conversation and the list of those making reserva- tions is increasing almost daily. Addi- tions to the list are Mr. and Mrs. Marins Matheron, Baldwin, L. I.; Mr. and Mrs. I. S. Hendrickson, Flowerfield, L. I.; Mr. and Mrs. George Baldwin, Mamar- oneck, N. Y., and Arthur Buchholz, Elm- hurst, L. I. ^ E. J. Eyan, of Detroit, is in town in the interests of the souvenir album which the Detroit Florists' Club is to publish for distribution to visitors at the convention. A meeting of some of the members of the tariff and legislative committee of the S. A. F. was held at Secretary Young's office on the afternoon of July 28. Further procedure in opposition to Quarantine Order No. 37 was discussed. It is intimated that the forthcoming 'T* 16 The Florists^ Review July 31, 191». season at the Hippodrome will see a rather unusual floral display as a regular part of the program. Geo. W. Hess, of the IT. S. Botanical Gardens, Washington, D. C, and a di- rector in the S. A. F., was a recent visitor. J. H. P. COLUMBUS, O. The Market. Trade has been holding up well for this season of the year. There is con- siderable funeral work occasionally and this helps to use up much of the stock. Gladioli are coming in heavily and are moving well at good prices. They are about the mainstay now. Boses are good for this season and there are gen- erally enough to supply the demand. Carnations are nearly exhausted. Most of the growers have thrown them out and are getting ready for planting. Some have done most of their planting already. There are a few asters to be seen now and then, but not enough to cause any comment. Sweet peas are about burned out on account of the hot and dry weather. Some snapdragons are coming in, but the quality is poor. There is little to select from these days and it is hard to please the customers. Various Notes. The Ackerman Floral Co. has some fine gladioli and is doing well with them. Frank S. Miller, formerly the Colum- bus Floral Co., is getting things in shape for a big season's business. The Livingston Seed Co. has been showing a fine stock of gladioli, which helps them to take orders for the com- ing season. S. F. Stephens reports considerable trade at his place, mostly in funeral work. J. M. BOSTON. The Market. There is not a large supply of flowers arriving at present, and those from out- doors are beginning to fill the center of the stage, gladioli now being more prom- inent than anything else. They are not by any means at their height yet, but a few days more will see a veritable flood of these popular and useful flowers. Prices have dropped somewhat. The best varieties, such as Pendleton, Schwa- ben, Europa and Peace, realize double the prices of some of the older sorts, but $4 to $8 per hundred are about average rates. Roses are still arriving in good numbers, most of them being short-stemmed. Prices are much the same as a week ago. There are a few small carnations coming in, but they cut little figure. Asters are not yet plentiful and sell well, whites especially so. The best make $5 per hundred. Sweet peas are poor, due to the humid and generally unfavorable weather we have had. The flowers seem to possess no keeping qualities. A small supply of Easter lilies comes in and sells fairly well. Of outdoor annuals and perennials the supply is smaller, due to drenching rains. Hardy gypsophila remains quite abundant. There are few cattleyas on the market and the demand for asparagus is com- paratively small. Club Picnic. Glorious weather once more favored the Gardeners' and Florists' Club for its annual picnic at Cunningham park. East Milton, July 24, the skies being cloudless after an almost unprecedented spell of damp, rainy, oppressive and altogether disagreeable weather. There was a record attendance, over 500 being present. There were no accidents and nothing happened to in any way mar the occa8it)n. Visitors fropa a distance were numerous and included Mr. and Mrs. Thomas Pegler, Lewiston, Me.; F. C. Green, Providence, R. I.; George E. Baldwin, Mamaroneck, N. Y., and large parties from Hopedale, Manches- ter, North Easton, Natick, WeUesley, Wakefield, Haverhill, Hamilton, Taun- ton, Worcester, Framingham and other centers. The baseball games, as usual, proved potent attractions. The contest between commercial growers and private garden- ers proved to be a grueling one. The game stood 2 to 2 at the end of the fifth inning, and not until the close of the ninth inning did the commercials beat out their opponents. The game between married and single ladies caused much excitement and fun. The singles finally managed to win out by 5 to 4. The private gardeners once more defeated the commercials in the tug of war. The soccer football game ended in a pointless draw, neither goal keeper hav- ing much to do. Prizes were presented to all winners by. President Rogers, who, with his com- mittee, worked hard to make the picnic a success. Mr. Caldwell, manager of the Cunningham park gymnasium, made a most ef&cient starter, and Herman Bartsch as megaphone man left nothing to be desired. The winners in the various sporting events were as follows: Baseball, commercial growers vs. private gai^ deners — Commercial team, 6 to 2. Baseball, married vs. single ladies — Single ladies, captained by Miss F. Bisenbardt and consisting of Misses B. Illffe. M. Illffe, Florence Palmer, Dorothy Palmer, Mary Flood, Slusan Bogers, D. Holland and O. Blrkmaier, beat Mrs. J. F. Cole's team, 6 to 4. Quoit matcb — W. C. Rust, first; Frederick Cave, second.

Edgar Co., is passing cigars. It is a 7-pound boy, born July 21, making the fifth. All are doing well. Recent visitors have included F. G. Sealey, New York; George E. Baldwin, Mamaroneck, N. Y.; 0. H. Totty and Arthur Herrington, Madison, N. J.; Thomas Pegler, Lewiston, Me.; Joseph Manda, East Orange, N. J. The annual show of gladioli and other seasonable flowers will be held at Horti- cultural hall August 9 and 10 and prom- ises to be an excellent one. The prod- ucts of children 's gardens will be shown August 30 and 31. Peter M. Miller and wife are enjoy- ing a vacation at Bar Harbor, Me. Wollrath & Sons, of Waltham, are cut- ting a fine lot of gladioli. They have a field of these comprising twenty to thirty of the best commercial sorts. In the greenhouses are to be seen splendid large stocks of poinsettias, gardenias, oranges, cyclamens, begonias and other winter plants. Mrs. W. W. Edgar and daughters are spending a few weeks with Mrs. James McHutchison at Kennebunk Beach, Me. B. A. Snyder & Co. report a satisfac- tory summer shipping trade, with calls from beach and mountain resorts much ahead of 1918. Henry Penn left this week for a month ^s vacation to be spent at Grand Lake stream. Me. He will indulge in salmon fishing part of the time. Wil- liam Penn had good success with the rod and reel while there. Mr. and Mrs. Robert Montgomery, of Natick, are at their summer cottage on Bastins island, near Portland, Me. Peter Pederzini, of Medfield, is busy glazing a new greenhouse, 32x100 feet. He will plant tomatoes as his first crop. There is a great shortage of field- grown carnations and, with a strong de- mand, many would-be purchasers seem doomed to disappointment. Martin Wax left this week for a va- cation and salmon fishing trip to Moose- head lake. Me. Mr. Wax usually man- ages to land a good number of the finny tribe while away. Johnston Knight, manager of the Co- operative Flower Market, and W. J. Thurston, of the Flower Exchange, are enjoying their annual vacations at local beach resorts. We have had a number of days of excessive humidity, and copious rains have transformed vegetation so that crops of all kinds are now well up to or over average. R. C. Bridgham, of the Newton Rose Conservatories, reports a most success- ful season. The greenhouses here are located in the heart of Newton, one of the most exclusive and extensive of Boston 's residential sections, and every- thing produced can be sold at retail. Henry M. Robinson & Co. report ex- cellent shipping trade during July. Their roses are of extremely fine quality for midsummer. H. E. Meader, of Dover, N. H., is much pleased with Gladiolus Lily White, Jolt 81, 1919. The Florists^ Review 171 purchased from A. E. Eunderd last win- ter. He will have a large exhibit at the Boston gladiolus show August 9. Mr. Meader is planning to open an up- to-date flower store in Dover Septem- ber 1. He has a central location and, with his past experience in store man- agement, should make good. E. A. Peirce, state vice-president for eastern Massachusetts, is endeavoring to get up a Boston party to the Detroit convention and already several have ex- pressed their intention of attending. The party will leave via the Boston & Albany railroad August 17, at 4:45 p. m., to Buffalo. A day of sight-seeing will be enjoyed there, and the boat will be taken at 6 p. m. for Detroit, which will be reached at 8 a. m. August 19. The fare from Boston to Detroit, in- cluding berths, will be $26.63, meals extra. Anyone not wishing to spend so much time en route can leave Boston August 18 at 2 p. m., tmd arrive in De- troit at 8:10 next morning. All-rail fare with lower berth costs $28.00. T. D. Hatfield, superintendent for Walter Hunnewell, has been awarded a gold medal by the Massachusetts Horti- cultural Society for Ehododendron Miss Louise Hunnewell, a cross between E. (azalea) japonicum and B. sinense. B. japonicum is salmon red, B. sinense clear yellow and the new hybrid orange yel- low. The cross was made under glass eight years ago and among many hun- dreds of seedlings raised there is no dif- ference in habit or color. It has proved perfectly hardy in Wellesley and should prove a valuable addition to our list of hardy rhododendrons. W. N. C. BAI.TIMOIIE. The Market. Owing to the many recent heavy rains, the market for the last week has been congested with a mass of poor stock. In many cases the best the commission men could do was to sort it over and pick out what was salable. The de- mand has fallen off somewhat. When a customer comes along he wants nothing but the best stock obtainable, and is willing to pay a fair price for it. The only exception is gladioli. Many grow- ers still persist in sticking to the old varieties. These, naturally, have no chance with the later, large and finely colored varieties; so the poorer species eventually find their way to the dump and the grower has had his trouble for nothing. If he had kept abreast with the times he might, for the same amount of trouble, receive a good price for his stock. Competition in the florists ' busi- ness is becoming as acute as in any other line, and the sooner members of the trade learn that the thing for them to do is to grow stock just a little bet- ter than the other fellow, the better for them. For instance, gladioli last week were bringing $4 to $6 per hun- dred, while some extra fine brought $8 per hundred; these were easier to dis- pose of than the cheaper ones. Anyone, it would seem, who would devote the proper thought and labor to the ques- tion could produce the best quality just as well as the cheaper grades or those that will not sell at any price. Varions Notes. One of the growers about Baltimore most optimistic over the outlook for the future is Bobert L. Graham. In a re- cent conversation Mr. Graham said Jta ■*.. % 1 1 H. O. HANNAH. AFTEE * * growing up with the country, " H. O. Hannah, of Sherman, Tex., was quite the fit person to be elected president of the Texas State Florists ' Associa- tion at its recent convention. Born and reared in Moberly, Mo., Mr. Hannah moved to Sherman in 1896 and in about 1900 began in the florists' business. It was not much of a house, as greenhouses go today, that he bought from Eobert C. Kerr's father, and Mr. Hannah says he bought his first geranium with a borrowed dollar. But two decades have seen much growth. The 900-foot house has become a 15,000- foot range, where are grown carnations, of whose quality Mr. Hannah boasts, and also bedding plants. And Mr. Hannah lends money rather than borrows it to buy geraniums, for he admits that, while he is not a millionaire yet, he is "on Easy street." Fred Hannah is the rest of the firm of H. O. Hannah & Son. the last was one of the best sea- sons he had ever experienced. The sum- mer business at both of his stores sur- passed anything in the history of the firm. There is, perhaps, no business in the city in a better position to feel the pulse of the whole public than that of Mr. Graham. The uptown store has a clientele of some of Baltimore's best and most exclusive people, while the downtown store, now in the heart of a foreign district, has a patronage of every kind. Yet, this downtown store reports, they are doing a better busi- ness than ever in the past. Mr. Graham is at this time rebuilding two houses and overhauling the others. His order for next year's lily bulbs has been placed and he is of the opinion it is not a question of business, but one of secur- ing stock to take care of the business that is bound to come. Another old florist is James Glass, and if anyone has a right to be discouraged, it is he. He had just recovered from an illness that required two operations and kept him laid up about two years, when his wife, who had looked after the business so well during his illness, was taken sick. She, too, had to undergo an operation, but her recovery has been slow and tedious. In spite of all these obstacles, on top of those every other florist had to endure, ask James about the future of the business and, as his Irish face lights up with a smile, he will tell you the florists' business is just coming into its own. He is ready to go into the question and give you a reason for the faith that is his. He will tell you that during the last season his busi- ness has gone beyond all expectations, and that with a limited amount of stoclc with which to do business. But I re- kfVnp,')G» T^TTKT7>''#r^-»^t7r^^i-' J7--A VT ** ■ 18 The Florists^ Review July 31, 1919. minded him this was during war times, when salaries were all high and every- thing else cost more money. He replied by asking where, outside of government contracts,' wages had decreased any. People are now getting down to a staple basis and this is much better than in- flated wages, when one had no idea of how long they would last. Everyone now has a good market for his labor and has no trouble to dispose of it at a good remuneration. The general public has money and is spending it. Mr. Glass is making preparations for an even larger business next season. Tate. FIbOVIDENCE. The Market. The long spell of continued rainy, muggy weather, which broke July 24, caused considerable damage to crops throughout the state from mildew and blight. Several of the growers who had large fields of carnations were much worried and lost several hundred plants. Asters also suffered from the dampness . and field-grown asters are coming into the market in an unsatisfactory condi- tion. Business has fallen off perceptibly during the last week, there being no so- cial functions and a smaller number of funerals, while the street car strike has so curtailed travel that there has been little or no demand for cut flowers. Various Notes. Among the corporations doing busi- ness in Ehode Island that have a cor- porate excess of $10,000 or more, ac- cording to the annual assessment of the state tax comiAissioners, are the follow- ing: Budlong Rose Co., Auburn, $90,- 131; Hoxsie Nurseries, Inc., Hoxsie, $17,876;" Quidnick Greenhouses, Inc., Quidnick, $10,374; Westminster Green- houses, Inc., $13,457. Eugene McCarron, of Hope street, has added a half-ton automobile truck to his -delivery department. The Budlong Rose Co., of Auburn, has purchased an automobile truck. Edward E. Spencer has been ap- pointed by the Probate court, at East Greenwich, as administrator of the es- tate of the late James Hay. J. J. Kelley, of Valley Falls, has just purchased a touring car. William Cohen, of Cohen Bros., Lowell avenue, who was recently married to Miss Rose Blackmar, of Bristol, has re- turned from a honeymoon trip to Port- land, Me. Bert West has resigned his position with Joseph Black, Washington street. Henry Oakley, formerly with T. J. Johnston & Co., and W. A. Bowers, has taken a position with Joseph Black. The Quidnick Greenhouses, Inc., dur- ing the summer months is closing at 12 o'clock on Saturdays. Hugh De Wildt, of the Elmwood Greenhouses, entertained the men in his employ Wednesday afternoon, July 23, by a motorboat trip to Newport and re- turn. Johnston Bros., of Dorrance street, had two large truck-loads of designs for the funeral of Trooper McGrory, at Stillwater, last week. He died at Glen , Springs, Tex., and was a member of Troop A, 8th Cavalry. Miss Florence Burlingame, formerly with Smith the Florist, is now with the Hogg Greenhouses, Benefit street. Sampson Almy and C. Green have pur- chased the greenhouse business of the late James Hay, at East Greenwich, and will conduct it under the style of the East Greenwich Greenhouses. Mr. Green was for several years in charge of the Goddard estate, at Pottowaumet. Florence A. Willard has given a mort- gage for $500 to James Freeman Co., on the lot and improvements on Massachu- setts avenue. Mrs. William Butcher, widow of one of the old-time florists^ of this city, with her sister, were in an automobile ac- cident at Manomet Bluff, near Plym- outh, Mass., a few days ago. Both escaped serious injury, although their car was badly smashed. W. H. M. OBITUARY rORT WAYNE, IND. The Market. The exceptionally warm, dry weather we have had the last few weeks has in- jured outdoor flowers to a considerable extent, as well as retarded the progress of the greenhouse stock, particularly roses. Monday, July 28, was by far the hottest day of the year. The result of these conditions is that the supply of salable flowers is not nearly equal to the demand, which has been heavy the last week, owing to the deaths of sev- eral prominent citizens. A few sum- mer weddings and brisk hospital trade have helped to keep midsummer dullness away. Roses are showing the effects of the extreme heat, although there is some im- provement noted in the size of the flow- ers from the young stock, and the quan- tity is also increasing. Russell is easily the leader in summer roses, with Colum- bia, Premier and Ophelia of fairly good quality. The demand for carjiations has fallen off since their deterioration and prices are low. Gladioli are the most showy flowers on the market and are being used largely for funeral sprays. The dry weather is beginning to tell on these flowers, al- though some blooms of good quality are offered. Cattleyas are in small supply at present. The absence of summer lilies is keenly felt. Rubrum lilies are also scarce. Summer flowers continue to ar- rive in large numbers, but the quality is suffering from the prolonged heat and dryness. Outdoor snapdragons are an improvement over last week. Hydran- geas are being used in large numbers. Indoor greens are in sufficient supply to meet the demand. Varlotis Notes. Miss Marguerite Flick, of the Flick Floral Co., has returned home from a month's vacation, which she spent on Lake Erie, with her aunt, Miss Helen F. Patten, of the Patten Flower Shop, Toledo, O. George and Joseph Flick ac- companied Miss Flick. Several hand- some casket covers were sent out by the Flick Floral Co. last week. They were composed mainly of Mrs. Chas. Russell, the popular summer rose. E. C. Wenninghoff has a good display of summer foliage plants in his window. He reports heavy trade in funeral work and was obliged to work all day Sunday in order to get out the funeral orders. Mr. Baer, of the Raedlein Basket Co., Chicago, 111., and Allen M. Humason, representing the Arnold Paper Box Co., Chicago, were callers on the trade last week. R. F. B. Arnold Bingier. Arnold Ringier, widely known among florists and seedsmen, was found dead in a room in the Randolph hotel, Chi- cago, July 26. A coroner's jury found that he had died through self-adminis- tered cyanide of potassium. Mr. Ringier was born in Switzerland in 1861. He came to America while a young man and was connected with Vaughan 's Seed Store during the forma- tive period of the florist and seed busi- ness \tL Chicago. About 1890 he joined the staff of W. W. Barnard, where his keen perceptions and great vital forces caused him to make steady progress. He became secretary of the corporation when the Barnard business and the Goodwin interests were merged, in 1905, and he remained in that position until 1917, a continuous service of twenty- seven years. There are few men who possess the thorough knowledge of the business that was Mr. Ringier 's. He knew the trade from alpha to omega. As much at home with Dutch, French and Japanese bulbs as with canners' peas and the counter trade in seeds, he also was a large factor in the trade's dealings in Christmas greens. During his most active years he traveled all over the country, though particularly in the middle west and on the Pacific coast, establishing a wide ac- quaintance and many warm friendships among florists. He knew what he was talking about and he did not lightly pledge his word. Swayed by an un- usual temperament, if he said he could and would do a thing, performance was to be counted on. One of Mr. Ringier 's little foibles was a liking for having his picture taken on post-cards to mail to his friends. But he never posed alone; always it was in company with some well-known florist. One of the accompanying portraits shows Mr. Ringier and Sam Murray, of Kan- sas City, who was one of his closest friends. Apparently they were starting together for a journey. The other illus- tration shows Mr. Ringier and Frank D. Pelicano, of Pelicano, Rossi & Co., San Francisco, playing cowboy on a day's outing at Byron Hot Springs, Cal. Mr. Ringier married Annie Pouley, daughter of a South Chicago florist, while both were employees of Vaughan 's Seed Store. They had no children. Mr. Ringier leaves, besides his widow, only one near relative, a brother, Max. The funeral was held July 29, at 2216 Southport avenue, Chicago, with a large attendance of old friends and many flowers. Interment was in Memorial cemetery. Frederick G. Klingel. Following a long illness, Frederick George Klingel, formerly in the whole- sale cut flower business in Chicago, died July 22 at his home in Des Plaines, 111. Mr. Klingel was 39 years of age and is survived by his parents, his wife, a son and three daughters. Mr. Klingel entered the trade as book- keeper for George Reinberg, grower and wholesaler at Chicago. In this connec- tion he made the acquaintance of Charles Erne, at that time a member of ■M-: -• ■ •■ i JOLY 31, 1919. The Florists^ Review 19 Frank Pelicano and Arnold Ringier. the force of E. H. Hunt, in the cut flower sales department. The two com- bined the qualities desirable for operat- ing the wholesale cut flower business and set up for themselves in May, 1912, un- der the firm name of Erne & E^lingel. Mr. Klingel conducted the office end of the business until February 15, 1917, when he retired because of the stomach trouble which had made his attention to business intermittent during the preced- ing year. Mr. Klingel was a man of quiet and unobtrusive disposition, but his thorough, businesslike methods made him master of his work and earned him the respect and friendship of all with whom he came in contact. Interment took place at Eose Hill cem- etery July 24. Bichard Welch. Eichard Welch, of Painesville, O., one of the oldest nurserymen of the state, died July 21, after an illness of seven weeks. Born in Ireland in 1841, he came to America when but 16 years of age. He first settled in New York and there be- gan his career as a nurseryman. In 1869 he went to Painesville, taking up work with the Storrs & Harrison Co. He was not only among the first of that con- cern's employees, but was always looked upon as one of their best men. About ten years ago, worn out with hard labor, he was compelled to retire from active service. Surviving are four sons, S. E. and James S. Welch, of Painesville; Edward A. Welch, of Detroit, and John J, Welch, of Pasadena, Cal.; three sisters, Mrs. Sarah Davis and Mrs. Charles Hacker, of Painesville, and Miss Mary Welch, of Eochester, and one brother, Pat Welch, of Victor, N. Y. Funeral services were held July 24. Interment was in Evergreen cemetery. Frank McCabe. Thousands of florists all over tlie United States, but particularly in the south and southwest, will learn with great regret of the drowning of Frank McCabe, at Ottawa Beach, Mich., July 29. Mr. McCabe was at the lake resort on his annual vacation. Nothing is known of the circumstances of the drowning, the information coming in a brief tele- gram. M. A. Leganger, long associated with Mr. McCabe, at once went over to Ottawa Beach to bring back the body. Frank McCabe was a native of CM- cago, 29 years of age^, His entire busi- ness life had been spent with the A. L. Eandall Co., where he started as a boy just out of business college, about thir- teen years ago. Beginning in the cut flower department, he worked his way through practically every branch of that large organization and had contributed no little to its growth. For several years, and until this spring, Mr, McCabe traveled widely in the interests of the Eandall concern. He is known by prac- tically every florist in the south and southwest and has made numerous trips to the Pacific coast. Last spring he stopped traveling, except in special cases, and for the last few months has been on special duty in the store. He was qualified to handle any situation which might arise and was highly es- teemed by all his associates. Mr. McCabe never married. He leaves a mother, four sisters and a brother. ? B. E. Everett. E. E. Everett, husband of Mrs. Ever- ett, who operates the Highland Green- houses at Pawhuska, Okla., died July 24. Mr. Everett underwent an operation that day and succumbed to the^hock. Mr. Everett was an ice dealer in Paw- huska and his wife has been in the florists' business for the last five years. They had recently completed a new home and were planning to move into it soon. Funeral services were held in Paw- huska and the burial took place at Law- rence, Kan., Sunday, July 27. J. E. K. Patrick Cudahy. Patrick Cudahy, connected with the trade through his interest in the Cudahy Floral Co., at Cudahy, Wis., died of apo- plexy at his heme in Milwaukee July 25. Mr. Cudahy was most widely known as the head of the packing firm of Cud- ahy Bros., and it was in this business . that he became a multimillionaire. About 1915 the Cudahy Floral Co. was organized by Patrick Cudahy, his son, John, and G. W. Scott, who had the management of the 50,000 feet of glass erected at Cudahy, Wis. The business was incorporated for $125,000, The com- pany grew chiefly roses, which were shipped to the Milwaukee market. Mr. Cudahy was born in Ireland March 17, 1849, and came to the United States as an infant, one of five brothers. Arnold Ringier and Sam Murray. who built up one of the five largest pack* ing houses in the world. George W. Potter. George W. Potter, 34 years of age, brother of W. Q. Potter, wholesale flo- rist, at 421 High avenue, Cleveland, was, with his family, struck by an electric car and killed July 27. At a particularly dangerous crossing the automobile containing Mr. Potter, his wife, and two sons, George W. Pot- ter, Jr., 2 years old, and Donald Potter, 4 months old, was struck by an intar- urban car running at a high rate of speed. All were thrown from the auto- mobile, which was' burned and twisted in a mass of wreckage. Mr. Potter and his wife were found under the car, badly mangled. Donald was still living when picked up, but died on the way to the hospital. W. Q. Potter, with whom the deceased was associated in business, took charge of the funeral arrangements. The par- ents live in Pennsylvania. BUSINESS EMBABBASSMENTS. Wallace, Idaho. — The property of the Wallace Florists is to be sold at auction July 25. This place has been in the hands of a receiver ever since the dis- appearance of Eobert G. Lowe, who sud- denly disappeared while making a visit to Spokane the first part of last May. GYPSOPHILA PANICUIiATA. Will you kindly tell me through The Review when is the best time and the best way to propagate Gypsophila pani- culata by means of root cuttings! 1 must do this outdoors, as I have no glass. E. W. G.— Minn. Frederick G. Kilngel. By propagating by root cuttings I understand the inquirer to mean increas- ing the stock by divisions from the old plant. The best time to do this is late in September or early in October. Cnt away small divisions of the plant with some roots attached and replant in well prepared soil where they can be watered should the weather be extremely dry, so as to encourage them to make good root-growth before severe weather seta in.

And you know the adage. When you find a man who uses both his head and his hands, keep him satisfied with his job; there are too few such in every line of business. Summer business never will compare with winter business, but this has been the best July most florists ever have seen. Those who have had good flowers have done well. Conditions in the Tennessee holly dis- trict are said to be such as to indicate a small supply for Christmas at a cost at least double that of ante-bellum seasons. Transportation for it will be obtainable, but an advance in freight rates was an- nounced last week. RESULTS. We give them. You get them. We both have them. The price of glass has gone up a mat- ter of five per cent. The coal situation does not look brighter. When the grain crops begin to jnove it will turn dark. There is small chance of there being too many plants next spring. Make preparations to propagate all you can. With the mass of the American people earning and spending at the present rate, how could business with florists be badf At City Point, Wis., haying and the blueberry season are offered as the reasons why sphagnum moss is coming out so slowly. Any florist who has small Boston ferns for growing on will find a quick market for them if he offers them where the buyers look — in the Classified section of this paper. Not to secure business, but to secure the stock with which to take care of it, is the problem of the coming season, as some in- fluential florists see it. C. W. Ward still is making much good copy for the newspapers on the Pacific coast, but now it is his personal, rather than his business, affairs that are attract- ing attention. In last week's issue of The Review the Situation Wanted, Help Wanted and For •Sale advertisements occupied almost four , full pages. It was the largest showing of these compact little opportunity offers thu9 f^r published. But there .will be more. " Once a publication becomes known for the number of these ads it carries, they increase like a snowball rofllng down- hill. Field-grown carnation plants will be extremely scarce this season. In the first place, the quantity propagated and planted out was small and, secondly, weather conditions have been unfavorable — frost in the spring, followed by too wet in the east and too dry in the middle west — so that the loss in the field has been considerable. Under the circumstances it will be too much to expect that such sur- pluses as may be offered will be invariably of the highest quality. As a matter of fact, most of the growers are benching •mall plants. BAN ON TILL AUTUMN The present restrictions on travel to Europe, while slightly relaxed of late, do not yet allow persons to travel abroad purely for pleasure. Nor will they be allowed to do so until after No- vember 1, according to the Department of State. •■ Secretary Lansing announced July 26 that passports will not be issued to those desiring to go abroad solely for pleasure until after November 1. ^'Hereafter no peidoVi desiring to visit European countries, except enemy countries and Russia, will be required to show urgent reasons or be restricted as to age," said the statement. "Such person will merely be required to show that the object of the visit is legitimate and reasonable." HELP WANTEDl "If every soldier were back on the job tomorrow, we should still be 4,000,- 000 workers short, on account of the stoppage of immigration in the last four years, ' ' says H. E. Miles, chief of the United States Training Service, which is trying to devise means of raising the standards of production to offset the shortage of labor. Col. Arthur Woods puts the figure at 7,000,000. Whichever figures are correct, the fact is clear that the scarcity of labor is of extreme importance. The coal trade has complained; the lack of immigrants from whom to recruit mine labor has held back production this year. The textile mills are voicing sad feelings; they cannot get enough operatives for their machines. From the industries re- quiring rough or little skilled labor comes a unanimous tale of woe. And the florists ' trade feels the pinch, too. The Want Ad pages of The Review swell with appeals for Help Wanted. The large growers must pay more than they ever did before, and yet must often put up with "hobo" labor. Men with experience, however little it may be, are in constant demand. Even un- skilled workers to assist are hard to get. If the statistics of immigration ex- perts are true, conditions are not going to improve much. Immigration dwin- dled to a scanty stream during the war. Now the foreigners who reaped richly in the times of high wages are swarm- ing back to the freed nations of Eu- rope with their savings. The tide, hith- erto strongly in our favor, is tending in the opposite direction. The scarcity in the ranks of rough labor has been felt in all grades of em- ployment. Even the callings where women supplanted men under the pres- sure of war cannot get full supply with the men mostly back from overseas. Though the munition plants have closed down, normal industries have increased their activity and absorbed the work- men released. As the industries which were repressed during the war girow in output, the strain on the labor market will be greater. There seems no pros- pect but for continued heavy demand for labor. WHY BUSINESS IS BOOMING The testimony of merchants is that de- spite high prices the American people are spending money on a much, larger scale and for much more expensive arti- cles than ever before. It is described as a period of "frenzied buying." The old restraint seems to be thrown aside and money is appreciated only as a means to indulge in some new extravagance. We presume the feeling of release from the necessary economies of the war period has done a great deal toward fos- tering the desire to spend money. There are, moreover, many people who never had so much money as they have now, and their tendency is naturally to make a show, to "get something out of it," something to impre8» the neighbors. Coupled with the reaetfionr from the war there is a Bort of general apprehension of what will happen ii^^. This appre- hension translates its^'into a spirit of "after us the delug«>*' and frenzied buying goes merrily on.' — Chicago Trib- une. DOINQ ITS WOBE. That the little liners in The Review are doing their regular work even in midsummer is shown by letters like these: , , , The ad we had in The Review last week was a great success. We have received many orders from it. Every florist should use The Review for good results. — Alabama Floral Co., Birming- ham, Ala., July 23, 1919. Discontinue all our plant ads in the Classifled section; they are making us too much business. — Kemble-Smith Co., Boone, la., July 28, 1919. If you hear a man complain of the cost of advertising you can be pretty certain he spends a good bit of money elsewhere than in The Review. CHICAaO. Tlie Market. Business increased to a considerable degree last week, and where the second full week in July was only about as good as last year, the third full week of the month was distinctly better than a year ago. The demand was stronger in spite of warm weather. The supply of stock was not increased and naturally prices stiffened. No grower could com- plain of such summer prifies .aa wfere realized from July 21 to 28. Shipping demand was strong enough to clear out all the stock of quality to stand a jour- ney, so that local retailers had to be on the ground early and pay good prices in order to get necessary supplies. Here and. there one hears that business is dull, and no doubt it is dull compared to win- ter standards, but compared with sum- mer standards, business is excellent. There is demand for more good stock than the market affords and prices are far from low, quality considered. JCLT 81, 1819.

The supply of Pre- mier has increased and the quality has improved to the point where this novelty is a competitor with Russell and Colum- bia for first place in the market. These three varieties are the leaders, but any other good roses sell. The supply of short stems is somewhat less than earlier in the month and all roses are clearing. Carnations have gone down to a point where the supply is extremely small, but at the same time the quality has im- proved, for the houses that were giving poor stock have been thrown out and only the best houses retained. It does not mean a great deal in a day's sales, because the supply is so light, but car- nations are selling at from $2 to $4 per hundred, $3 being required to obtain anything at all good. These certainly are first-class prices for this time of year. Asters are more plentiful and they are selling steadily at first-class prices; in- deed, mediocre stock is bringing the price that fancy stock brought in other years. The supply of gladioli does not seem to be large, but as a matter of fact it is quite heavy; the flowers go out almost as fast as received, with the re- sult that few are on view at any one time. Other items are of relatively small consequence, the supply being so light July 31, 1919. The Florists^ Review 28 \ h ilWH9LESALE GD9WEPS "/"CUT fL9WEDS^^<'PLANTWl r 182 N.

Nearly everyone was able to be at his usual post of duty in spite of the strike. Various Notes. The death of Aj^iold Eingier is recorded in the obituary column of this issue. A man of unquestionably wide and thorough knowledge of the business, his paJssing, in the way he passed, is spe- cially regretted. Frank McCabe, one of the oldest, most widely known and popular of the em- ployees of the A. L. Randall Co., was drowned July 29 at Ottawa Beach, Mich., where he was vacationing. Further par- ticulars are in the obituary column. As an indication of what the whole- sale cut flower contingent may expect in the way of rents, the board of assessors has just fixed new values for the real estate for taxation purposes. The block on Wabash avenue, between Randolph and Lake streets, where most of the wholesalers are located, has been valued at $3,500 a front foot. The Randolph street frontage, where Poehlmann Bros. Co. is located, is put at $3,000 per foot and where Peter Reinberg, the Tonners, A. C. Spencer and others use almost all the space on the second floor and three more occupy the basement of the Atlas block, the valuation of the land is placed at $4,000 per front foot. The improve- ments in the district consist of 4-story to 10-story buildings, in which the trade occupies most of the basements, first and second floors and some of the third floors. i^^ JULT 81, 1919.

John Owens, who believes the buying is more important than the selling, frequently makes two trips a day to market to get the stock needed to keep liis people supplied. W. J. Smyth's little granddaughter has had a hard pull, undergoing a sur- gical operation when only 6 weeks old. As a result, Mr. Smyth has been spend- ing a large share of his time in the city, but things are now going better with the little lady and Mr, and Mrs. Smyth ex- pect to be at their summer home at An- tioch for most of the month of August. As a straw indicating the way the trade is preparing for next season, Sid- ney Buchbinder says that never in the many years Buchbinder Bros, have been manufacturing refrigerators have they had so much work for florists as now. The obituary column this week lion- tains notice of the death of Fred G. Klingel, formerly in the wholesale cut flower busines as a partner of Charles Erne. Mr. Klingel was a good man in every sense of the word and left many friends when he retired from business about two years ago, because of ill health. Those ' former florists, Lubliner & Trinz, last week sold a corner, 100x125 feet, at Madison street and Kedzie ave- nue, to a bank for $150,000.

Eoses, too, show the effects of the hot, dry spell, especially the home-grown and fancy stock. Both are out of the question at present. The aster crop promises well this sea- son and will greatly help to fill the de- mand. Hydrangeas and tuberoses, which are now coming in, should be in good crop. Valley, lilies and orchids are scarce in this market. Gypsophila, gail- lardia and cornflowers have little value these dull days. There is always a big demand for greens, especially asparagus and smilax. Summer-flowering plants are scarce and only ferns, gloxinias and tuberous- rooted begonias are seen in the florists' windows. Various Notes. Meetings of the various local florists' organizations to be held during the month of August are as follows: St. Louis Florists' Club, Thursday after- noon, August 14; St. Louis County Grow- ers' Association, Wednesday night, August 6; Lady Florists' Club, Tuesday afternoon, August 5; St. Louis Associa- tion of Gardeners, Sunday, August 3, and the Retail Florists' Association, August 11. All these meetings take place before the St. Louis florists leave for Detroit to attend the S. A. F. con- vention. Any members of these organ- izations wishing to travel on the florists* special should make it known to their secretary, who in turn will send the names to the transportation committee. The Lady Florists' Club will hold its monthly meeting at the home of Mrs. A. S. Cerny, 436 South Van Buren ave- nue, Kirkwood, Mo., Tuesday afternoon, August 5. Important matters will come up for discussion, including S. A. F. con- vention matters. Fred Seibel has leased the old Bleeck- ert place, on Labadie avenue. It will be used for growing plants. He has also bought out the Townsend Floral Co., on Boyle avenue, which will be remodeled into a first-class retail establishment. His old place, on Pennsylvania avenue, has been returned to the former owner, F. W. Pape. Pierre Schneider is busy superintend- ing the construction of his new green- house, on the Olive street road, in St. Louis county. The new house will be used for carnations. Mr. Schneider had given up the old Connon place, at Web- ster Groves, Mo. August 25 was ' ' Say It with Flowers ' ' night at the Municipal Opera in Forest park. A section was reserved for the florists and nearly fifty were present. The attraction furnished excellent pub- licity for the trade.

Olinger has begun to cut some excellent asters at his greenhouses, at New Oastle, Ind. Mr. and Mrs. G. Adrian left for their cottage, at Les Cheneaux, Mich., Mon- day evening, July 28. They plan to be there for two months. Wm. C. Schaef er has purchased Henry Koester's place and plans to grow lilies as a specialty. Among recent visitors were J. E. Thomas, Circleville, O., and Walter Tap- per, Falmouth, Ind. C. H. H. SOUTH BEND, IND. Ten cars carried the members of the South Bend and Mishawaka Florists' Association to Indian lake July 16 for a picnic. Two ball games were staged between the "slims" and the "fats," the "slims" coming out victorious in both games. A three-legged race was won by Joseph Beckrich and Adam Beehler. E. D. Buckels carried off the honors in the 100-yard dash, and in the horseshoe pitching contest he divided them with Boss Kinyon. The children 's race was won by John Kinyon. BERGER BROS. FINE.

EARLY ASTERS All Varieties of SEASONABLE CUT FLOWERS, White and Colored. 1225 Race St. PHILADELPHIA PHILADELPHIA. The Market. Trading was dull throughout the week, with the market a little stronger at the close. The better grades of flowers gen- erally sold at fair prices. Poor asters, mixed gladioli and short roses of the Killarney family did not sell. Fine gladioli continue to be the fea- ture of the market. They are finer than in past years. Choice varieties like Panama and Pendleton can be had in quantity, with a reasonable certainty that an order to duplicate next day will be satisfactorily filled. Asters have been strengthened by the arrival of a few so-called astermums, which rather imposing name is given to a selected strain carefully grown to mum-like size. There are few good roses. New stock Premier is better this week. Mrs. Eussell, from old stock, Maryland and Victoria are the stand-bys for everyday use. Valley has again dropped out. Cattleya Harrisonii brings the re- spectable figures of $4 to $6 a dozen, while gigas and Gaskelliana bring twice the last-named price. The Bickmore Greenhotises. Milton H. Bickley is considered one of our real live wires today because he has already carried extensive improve- ments into operation — already, because only a really alert person could so quickly recover after discouraging war conditions. Mr. Bickley is building two fine King houses on his place near Wal- lingford. They are 21x200 feet each. They are the latest style of construc- tion and are intended for young carna- tion plants and spring stock. One house is planted with asters and chrysanthe- mums. The planting was done the mo- ment the house was ready. The other house is not yet built. Both houses will be heated by steam. Hot water has supplied the heat to the present Bick- more range. Joseph Goetter, the manager of the Bickmore greenhouses, is taking advan- tage of the let-up in rain to get the car- nations into their winter quarters in the older range. Bickmore is justly famed for its carnations. The wide house, 54x300, is being planted first. The stock looks well. The work of transplanting from the field into the benches is being pushed by the entire force. No new varieties are being grown, dependence being placed on last season's leaders, which did so well. The chrysanthemums are fully estab- lished, staked, tied and making excellent growth. As in the carnations, last sea- sou's leading varieties will again be found in the van. There are 75,000 gladioli in the fields at Bickmore. It seems a good many. It was not the number that interested Mr. Goetter most, it was the fact that they were all Holland-grown bulbs and that they looked so fine. Mr. Goetter had been frequently assured that gladiolus bulbs grown in Holland would not do so well as those grown in America, but this lot is the finest that has ever bloomed at Bickmore. There are many interesting things at the Bickmore greenhouses — the lovely side ventilation, the reversible bench boards, the alarmingly deep manure tank and, most interesting of all, the large, airy, covered shed for compost, o July 31, 1919.

Gladioli are still arriving in good quality and are the mainstay of the mar- ket. Roses arc being received of a little better grade. Gypsophila has held out well and has been coming in stead- ily for the last few months. This bloom will come in handy, as there is not a superabundance of stock available. A few good calendulas are arriving and being disposed of readily. Some wild stock has been received and has moved quite well. \^ Florists' Picnic. The florists' picnic July 23 was h great success.

The market has been in a depleted condition on account of the dry weather, which has cut down the supply of out- door stock. At this time of year, there is usually a large amount of gladioli, snapdragons, asters, etc., but now the supply is limited. Gladioli are the most abundant and range from $4 to $8 per hundred. Because of the general short- age, these move quickly. Asters are be- ginning to come in, but are still in short supply. -They range from $3 to $6 per hundred. Snapdragons are available, but are not plentiful. Eoses are to be had in small quanti- ties, but are only of fair quality. These are from $2 to $8 per hundred.

Oakland, CaL — The Japanese firm of K. Shinoda & Co. has been incorporated and is selling 100 shares of its capital stock at par, $100 cash, for the purpose of purchasing property to grow stock. Seattle, Wasji. — The retail store of the Hollywood Gardens is to be removed, September 1, from 1534 Second avenue to 1622 on the same thoroughfare, where facilities and display will be in keeping with the rapidly increasing size of the business. La Grande, Ore. — Walter Thompson & Sons, of Portland, Ore., have just com- pleted two modern greenhouses for Cherrys, Florists. This makes over 12,000 feet of glass for this firm. Mr. Cherry runs the greenhouses and Mrs. Cherry manages the store downtown. LOS ANGELES. The Market. Business picked up again last week and July, usually the worst month of the year, has been fairly good. Fine asters are arriving in all colors and help the shipping business, as well as the local and retail trade. Orchids are still scarce and hard to obtain. Gladioli and dah- lias are among the showiest flowers in. There is a great scarcity of ferns of good quality and growers are boosting the prices, which is quite legitimate, con- sidering the cost of materials and labor used in their production. There are no flowering plants and palms are scarce. The scarcity of kentias has been a boost for the more graceful and lasting Cocos plumosa, which is in great demand when well established. Various Notes. Howard E. (Jates, of Anaheim, has taken over the business formerly operat- ed by his mother, Mrs. Cornelia Gates, at West Center street. Mr. Gates and his brother were both in the army. How- ard is an old soldier of the Mexican border and Philippine islands. Mrs. Gates has not been in good health lately and, no doubt, is glad to be relieved of the responsibility of the business. Eobert Newcomb, representative of the Burlington Willow Ware Shops, of Burlington, la., has been calling on the trade, having arrived on one of the coast boats. George Stewart, who, as recently an- nounced, is managing the store and nurs- ery formerly run by J. Fincken, on Washington street, says they have se- cured several landscape jobs and the store, both inside and out, has been made exceedingly attractive. George Eischen will return to his old position with J. W. Wolters, September 1. His father, as everyone is glad to hear, has improved in health and all hope to see him back in the home at Montebello soon. J. A. Axell left for San Diego July 21 and intends returning to San Francisco by boat after a visit to the trade there. In his spare time he is going to write a book entitled, "From Lumberjack to Florist." But if he carries out all his plans he will probably not have much spare time. William Langhout, representative of the American Bulb Co., of Chicago, was calling on the trade last week. The Los Angeles Floral Co., having secured the entire crop of one of the best growers of asters, is shipping extra fine, long-stemmed stock. Jack Allen, of the Alexandria Florist, has returned from his automobile trip. There is an elegant display of basket and ornamental ware in the store. The Broadway Florist is rushed with funeral work, both local and out-of-town trade. H. B. Richards. SAN FBANOISCO. The Market.

Asters "were seen for the first time in quantity and the new crop of. gladioli is arriving in splendid condition. Sev- eral of the newer varities, including Niagara, Augusta, Princeps, Schwaben and Pendleton, were brought in during the early part of the week and at pres- ent are the mainstay of the cut flower stock. First quality asters on long stems are bringing from 40 to 50 cents per dozen, wholesale, and are in strong demand for shipping. Chrysanthemums are scarce and ^^ \\i\ . '1 f.. 46 The Florists' Review Jolt 31, 1919. wholesalers are asking from 75 cents to $1.50 per dozen for the varieties now in the market. Dahlias are more plentiful, but with the exception of an occasional cutting of the choicer varieties, the flowers are of indifferent quality. Carnations are plentiful, with the end of the season drawing near, the best blooms bringing around 60 cents a bunch. The average prices on carna- tions, however, are somewhat lower. Of roses, good Ophelias run from the short grade up to $1.75 per bunch for the better quality, while Eussells on the same scale bring as high as $2 per dozen. The top price for red roses is $2 per bunch and Wards are selling up to $1 per bunch. Orchids and gardenias are difficult to obtain and are high in price. Gardenias are running toward small blooms at present. Scabiosas, in many variegated shades, are arriving in large cuttings and are making a good showing in the retail dis- plays. Among the seasonable common flowers are the French and African mar- igolds, snapdragons, gaillardias, both double and single, and sweet sultan. Various Notes. The workmen of C. Kooyman & Co. have been occupied with bulb digging. Mr. Kooyman states that if advance orders are any indication of the amount of business on the way, the coming sea- son will be a busy one. Bulbs are in fine shape, he says, and he thinks the stock will be large enough this year for the demand. The E. W. McLellan Co. has had a generous cutting of long-stemmed, large asters in lavender, purple, rose and white. These asters were in excellent shipping condition and Henry Avansino has started filling out-of-town orders. Some fine early chrysanthemums, white, yellow and pink, have been sold by the United Flower & Supply Co. The company's aster crop is well on the way toward maturity. Domoto Bros, report that chrysanthe- mums are in fine bud now. A new drying room for strawflowers is being installed by Enomoto & Co., 35 St. Anne street, and it is the intention of the firm to lay in a large supply of stock of this character for the coming winter season. A particularly fine cutting of Niagara gladioli was seen at Pelicano, Rossi & Co.'s last week. F. D. Pelicano is also bringing in some good dahlias and is heading the list at present with blue hydrangea stock. Victor Podesta, of Podesta & Baldoc- chi, is enjoying a motoring trip through the state. He expects to remain away for several weeks. J. B. Avansino, of Avansino Bros., Geary street, has returned from an out- ing of more than two weeks. One of the members of his force, Jack Lavaz- zola, left for his vacation upon Mr. Avansino 's return. He will take about two weeks. Robert Bernedcaux, of Joseph's staff, took excellent advantage of his vacation period, for he returned to his duties in the Grant avenue store a happy bene- dict.

Only Half Speed Ahead. Another week and the contributions to the publicity campaign fund exceed $1,000. While this is improvement main- tained, it is far from expectancy ful- filled. A total of $1,000 a week will not approximate $100,000 in a year; noth- ing like it. Nobody likes to be put upon half rations, but that is what it will amount to if we do not meet the quota set by our committee and our ex- ecutive board — we shall only get half of the benefit while the whole is in sight. The complete list of subscriptions pub- lished in the issue of The Review for July 3 shows some disparity in the totals for some of the states. The chairman of the local committee for the state of Virginia is, in a vigorous letter, calling the attention of the florists in his state to the small showing they have so far made as contributors to the fund. The neighboring state, West Virginia, with little more than half the population, makes a much better showing, but nei- ther state is anywhere near the figures expected of it. The local chairmen of all the states are urged to do their utmost to increase their state totals. The national publicity is distributed equally among the states in proportion to the population; in fact, it could not be otherwise. Join Roll of Honor. The eves of the manv hmulreds of sub- scribers to the fund are weekly turned to the subscription list published in these columns, with the expectancy of seeing the names of tardy contributors known to have not yet "come across." The subscription list is now recognized as a "roll of honor" in every sense of the term. That which is worth having is worth paying for. The venturesome stage of the campaign is a long way be- hind us; we are now paying for results which we are absolutely sure of getting. Look upon your contribution, if you like, as a sort of return treat to your brother florists who have treat- ed you to the benefits of the campaign already resultant. We are assuming, of course, Mr. Reader, that you are still merely on the list of prospectives. The fall season will soon be here, with a wealth of material to move. No matter whether you are a grower or retailer, the more active the movement of stock, the greater your opportunity to make your business profitable. Demand gov- erns the situation, and, as you know, it is the purpose of the publicity cam- paign to stimulate and increase it. So far, we have been able to do this, so let us continue the good work. Your committees must make their contracts for space in the national magazines many weeks in advance of publication. Help them to make really worth-while arrangements, by sending in your con- tribution at once. Additional Subscriptions. The following subscriptions have been received and are in addition to The Florists' Review July 31, 1919. Ill* fiorlats who** cards appear on the paces carryinc this head, are prepared to fill orders .. — from other norlsts for local dellTery on the usual basis.

THE NAME PROTECTS YOU Steamers are Again Sailing on Schedule Deliveries made on board BOSTON 1 PARK STREET 799 BOYLSTON STREET NEW YORK 661 FIFTH AVENUE shown in the official plan have been re- served by exhibitors, there are still a few blocks for disposal, and correspond- ence regarding them should be addressed to Secretary Young, 153 Bates street, Detroit, which vrill be his mailing ad- dress until the close of the convention. Membership cards have been sent to all the life members, and to all annual members in good standing for 1919. If any member has not received his card, he should communicate at once with the New York office, 1170 Broadway. An- nual members who have not paid their 1919 dues will have cards issued to them immediately upon receipt of arrearages. The official program of the convention appears in the July issue of the society 's Journal, which was mailed last week to our membership list. Under the postal laws, mailing under the second-class privilege to any member in arrears is forbidden; consequently, copies to such are mailed at full rates. Therefore, to be sure of receiving the publication reg- ularly, members should see to it that they are in good standing on the so- ciety's books, and that their 1919 dues and arrearages, if any, are paid. Exhibitors desiring signs, desks, etc., should write the secretary at once, in order that their requirements may be met in good time. The following ex- hibitors are in addition to those pre- viously announced: W. p. Kasting Co., Buffalo, N. Y. .Tuliiis Rophre Co., Rutherford, N. J. C. S. Ford, Philadelphia. Pa. Morehead Mfg.

Regulation 3, of the rules and regula- tions supplemental to Quarantine 37, provides that the nursery stock and other plants and seeds specifically men- tioned therein, including lily of the val- ley, may be imported under permit when free from sand, soil or earth. Since lily -of the valley clumps prac- tically always carry more or less sand, soil or earth, importers are warned by the Federal Horticultural Board that such clumps imported ynder the provi- sions of this regulation will be thor- oughly inspected upon arrival in this country and if sand, soil or earth is found adhering to the roots the shipment may be refused entry. It is suggested -by the board that lily of the valley be imported in the form of pips. rather than clumps, and that they be thoroughly cleaned by washing, so as to insure their freedom from sand, soil or earth, " ' ' .. .,i- T ^ r— -. • THE HABBISII SITUATION.

Dry weather in May is alleged to have greatly reduced the crop, es- pecially of the larger sizes, one of the largest shippers stating that there are only about half as many 7 to 9s and 9 to 10s as he counted on when he booked his orders. He says he had bought of other growers about 50,000 bulbs, but that he did not get them, ' ' a man from New York having gone to the growers and offered them much higher prices, $200 for 9 to 10s and $120 or Jsetter for 7 to 9s. Bids of $125 for 7 to 9s and $250 for 9 to lOs now bring no offers of bulbs." With sales made by American jobbers against expected arrivals, deliv- eries under the circumstances are im- possible and nobody knows who will eventually pot up the season's output of bulbs. SEED BIDS OPENED. Bids for furnishing the seeds required by the Department of Agriculture for congressional free distribution during the coming year were opened Tuesday afternoon, July 22. They were not, however, made public. It is known that the bids in some in- stances were materially lower than last year's, and substantially lower all along the line. It is authoritatively stated that they were lower than those made before the war. More than fifty bids were offered, or about the average number during the list five years. During the few years preceding the war, the bidders averaged in the neighborhood of ninety. The department will purchase about $200,000 worth of seed. The appropria- tion is $358,900. The difference between the amount actually expended in seed and the amount of the appropriation is absorbed in overhead charges involved^ in distribution. It is expected that the department will make awards of contracts during the week ending August 2. THE CANTAIX)XJPE DISTRICTS. A feature of the cantaloupe crop in recent years has been the tendency to shift heaviest production to the far west and the southwest. Last year, Califor- nia and Arizona together produced about one-half of the crop, and the pro- portion so far this year of the western production seems to be still larger. California has an enormous crop of good quality, likely to far exceed the early estimate, which indicated a pro- duction of about 7,000 carloads, com- pared with estimates of 7,000 to 8,000 carloads in each of the three preceding seasons. The Arizona forecast is double that for 1918 and about one-third of the figures estimated for California. To- ward the middle of July, Arizona ship- ments were exceeding those from Cali- fornia, which was approaching gradually the end of shipments from the southern part of the state. Colorado in recent seasons has pro- duced a crop estimated at 1,700 to 2,000 pars annually. The Georgia estimate for this year exceeds 1,000 cars, compared with 485 for last year, but this state ap- proached 3,000 cars estimated ^yroduc- tion in 1917 and exceeded 2,000 cars in 1916. South Carolina should produce nearly half as many as Georgia this season, with estimate of 425 this year as compared with 153 for last year.

The hearings taking place before the Interstate Commerce Commission in re- gard to the changes in rates and regula- tions in perishable protective tariff No. 1 are attracting the attention of nurs- erymen. While the increases proposed are primarily aimed at fruit shippers, there are, nevertheless, phases of the investigation which will affect the freight rates on nurser^ stock. The in- vestigation, known as docket 10664, has already been taken up at Los Angeles, Portland and Denver. The principal hearings are at Chicago, set for July 30, and at New York September 2. At At- lanta, Ga,, and New Orleans hearings are set for September 11 and 18 respect- ively. President Moon, of the A. A. N., has asked A. H. Hill, of Dundee, 111., and other nurserymen to appear at the Chi- cago hearing. Secretary Sizemore will probably be in attendance there also. A. A. N. BELEASES COUNSEL. May Have Executive Secretary. While amply recognizing the credit due Curtis Nye Smith"^flt his work in 19liB, with, the help of Ex-President Mayhew, in keeping off embargoes of nursery stock during the war, the execu- tive committee, meeting at the close of the Chicago convention, came to the de- cision that, now that the danger of siTch' embargo is removed and'QuarantiU'e No.^ 37 is in force, there is less need, for liiifl services than formerly. He was there- fore released by the association. ■ The credit and collection Wreau, which he- so successfully conducted, will t»e, pro- ■ vided for as soon as arrangements can be completed. The unexpected action of the nursery- men in taking over the market develop- ment bureau as a department of the association placed a responsibility upon the association for the management of the bureau which it had not before had to assume. The convention in Chicago also sought the aid of the federal government in se- curing crop reports, upon which nursery- men might more intelligently propagate and plant their stock. Legislative mat- ters in general have to be handled, and these, it was felt, could be looked after by an executive secretary, capable of managing the affairs of the association and the market development bureau, as well as developing new activities for the Peonies and Iris Send us your name now for our new Catalogue.

It was thought that there is not another man in the entire membership so well acquainted with the nurserymen of America and their needs. Mr. Watson has had other business opportunities and these he is consider- ing as well as that offered to him by the executive committee. The execu- tive committee has not desired to hurry Mr. Watson in his decision, but pending that decision their work of organization has been largely suspended, as so much depends upon the acceptance of Mr. Watson. If he accepts, the duties now falling upon the legislative committee, the president and other officers of the association will in large degree be dele- gated to the executive secretary. Should Mr. Watson decline, then other arrange- ments will have to be made for the credit and collection bureau, legislative matters and other problems that the association attends to. In the meantime, Charles Sizemore will attend to secretarial affairs as he did before. It is intended to retain Mr. Sizemore to carry on the traffic bu- reau, which he so successfully handled last year. Hence the engagement of Mr. Watson would not in any way affect Mr. Sizemore 's position, except that some of the duties he is now performing would be taken over by the executive secretary.

It is often help- ful, also, to have a sketch showing the location of the houses. PIPING TrtREt' kbusiss ' ' Could you give me the amount of 1%-inch pipe that would be required to heat my three greenhouses to 60 degrees at "5 degrees below zero? I have lots of 1^4 -inch pipe and would like to make use of it. The houses' face south -.and there is a bluff fifty- :^et liifeh on the north side. That should help. I am "en- closing a rough sketch. T. H.-^^Mich, The houses are each 33x100, as, shown by the sketch, with two and one-half feet of glass in the south wall of one of the houses. Since the house whiclr has glass in the' south wall has a twin roof, we shotild place a 2-inch flow pipe under thd'ri^ge of each of the houses and connect each of them with five 1^4 -inch returns, except that there should be six returns in the house at the south side. In the other house we would use one 2%-inch flow pipe and thirteen 1^4-inch returns. These should be placed under the beds and on the exposed walls. COAL PLEA BEFOBE CONaSESS. "There is plenty of coal in the ground and pleoty-.of miners to get it out, but unless the£oaI user^ of the country buy, the coal will not be mined," stated George H. Gushing, managing director of the American. Wholesale Coal Asso- ciation, before the .rules committee of the House of Eepresentatives in Wash- ington last week. He declared the pub- lic would be to blame fbr the coal scar- city which the country woul(i probably face next winter. Mr. Gushing said coal produced before last April 1 had been burned and that production since then had fallen short of the yearly demand by at least 125,- 000,000 tons. Part of this shortage' can be made up, he said, if coal orders are placed before railroads are tied up with movement of crops. After that it will be too late, he added. In the words of the American Mining Congress, "Coal mines can only produce when transportation is a^^ilable. The 'rush' for coal cars will come in the early fall, about the time that the wheat crop begins to move, The task of mov- ing these two commodities is, in normal years, enormous, and this year, with car shortage in sight, Europe crying for food and a stiff wheat price forcing every bushel into market, there will be a jam everywhere. "Because of lack of orders, coal men have been unable to estimate to the rail- road administration the probable move- ment, hence Director Hines has been un- able to make plans, but 4,000 extra loco- motives have been put in condition and h«"ld in reserve.

L. F. — N. J. We would suggest the use of three 2%-inch overhead flow pipes on the purlins for the 21%x80 foot house, and that fourteen 2-inch returns be provided. We would place four under each of the three benches and two on the exposed wall, which has three feet of glass. In the narrow house we would place a 2-inch flow pipe on each plate and connect each of them with three 2-inch returns. The best circulation can be obtained when the flows, as well as the returns, are given a slight fall. The expansion tank may then be connected with the highest part of the system and air valves will not be needed.

Summer conditions prevail. Stock ia plentiful, but the market is none too brisk. Quantities of outdoor blooms ar- rive dailv and are disposed of at low figures. The continued drought is hav- ing its effect on all outdoor flowers. Only a small percentage of rain has fallen during the last month — not enough to do much good. Flowers are short-lived, owing to these conditions. Were it not for the large amount of fu- neral work, of which fortunately all stores receive their share, trade would be quiet. There is an ample supply of carnations on hand, but they are begin- ning to run small. Boses are in good supply and of fine quality. Pink varie- ties seem to sell in preference to others. Wiite varieties are not in large supply. American Beauties are not in great de- mand. A few good Easter lilies are in and sell well. The supply of sweet peas is adequate for present needs, but their quality is not so good as usual. Superior stock, with long stems, brings good fig- ures. A few excellent rubrum lilies are seen. Gladioli are fairly plentiful and sell well. There is a demand for double gypsophOa. Varlons Notes. The summer window at the store of George T. Boucher has been redecorated and is more interesting than before. The main setting is a farm house, barns and animals. Surrounding these have been placed sand walks, with hedges of gyp- sophila. There is a pond, over which is a wooden bridge. Near the house are two automobiles, which bear the name Boucher. Horace J. Head, who has been spend- ing a couple of weeks in the country, left for a boat trip to Montreal, Can- ada, Sunday, July 27. He recently left the Wilson Floral Co., having bften with them for the last nine years, and on his return to the city he will enter the em- ploy of George B. Hart, as salesman. Edwin P. Wilson, Jr., is spending his summer vacation at the summer school at Springfield, Mass. The picnic planned by the Rochester Florists' Association for August 6 has been postponed to a later date. The place and date will be announced in the next issue of The Review. J, B. Keller Sons displayed several large porch jars with pedestals in their window last week. Salmon-colored gla- dioli, with gypsophila, against the gray stone, were exceedingly effective. H. J. H.

Federal Creenhouae Cement No. 2 is a medium thick consistency. We consider this the ideal consistency for glazing work, not too thick nor too thin.

Supply and demand had a fair week of smooth traveling. Showers have been plentiful and outdoor stock is readily responding. The principal outdoor flow- ers found on the market at the present time are sweet peas, calendulas and a limited quantity of gladioli. At this time a year ago asters sold for $1 per hun- dred. So far, the market has had to de- pend on indoor stock at the price of $4 per hundred for pink, $5 for white and $8 for purple. Few purple asters are ob- tainable. There is still a supply of car- nations, for which there is a(Mftdy de- mand at $2 per hundred. \|j Various Notes. Thieves entered Charles Sandiford's shop July 23, removed the cash register to the workroom and opened it. They obtained nothing for their trouble. Frank J. Baum and family, of Kings- ley street, left for Cleveland in their automobile July 22. They will visit the florists on their way. Although this is intended as a vacation trip, Mr. Baum is prepared to buy a stock of palms and c;^clamens. Charles Schoenhut, of William street, made a business trip to Philadelphia last week. The florists' outing, July 23, at the Automobile Club, proved to be a suc- cess. It was a cool, bright afternoon and a large gathering was on hand to participate in the various games and contests. The program was a long one, taking from 2 p. m. until 7 p. m. to com- plete. Some of the principal prize- winners were J. B. Weise, Mrs. Weise and W. L. Torge, also a member of the Weise family. The 100-yard dash for girls was won by Miss Pauly, of the S. A. Anderson staff. The 3-legged race was won by J. Kramer and J. Tobin.. Minnie Wilson and John Fieblekorn won the waltz contest. A baseball game was staged between the growers and the store men. William Adams acted as scorekeeper and Louis Neubeek as 'umpire. The store men won euiljf Mr. Adams said, even though he was not sure of the score. For the dinner 209 were present. F. P. A. -P. C. F. CO.- 8PRAY NOZZLE BRASS.

A Glazing Putty of Real Value In all our experience and investigation we had never found a preparation for bulbing over the outside of a greeu house that was quite satisfactory, until we ran across PERMANITE. This was about four years ago. At that time we set about investigating the merits of PERMANITE and proceeded to watch the results of its application to greenhouse roofs. Last year we were entirely convinced of its high quality and durability, and ac- cepted the western agency for the sale of these goods. We applied PERMANITE to hundreds of greenhouse roofs, ovier almost every part of the United States. The results obtained were highly satis- factory indeed. Glass roofs of all kinds, both old and new, were made water-tight and air-tight, saving thousands of plants frwtt being spoiled by water dripping on them and saving many hundreds of tons of coal V> making the roofs proof against tbe wind and storms of winter. We gtr* PERMANITE our unqualified endorsenmi.t and recommend it highly for all kinds vl glazing. WeJ^/me » ^^^^^ large stock on hand in our war«JU use and can ship imme- diately.

The Growers — Not We Are Responsible for Our Standard Width Houses TAKE the leading men in any line of business and if you can get their expression of thought, you eaa come pretty i;lose to knowing what the majority of the rest in their line of business think. leased on that very fact are our Standard Width Houses based. If the widths are wrong, then most of the leaders in the florist business must be wrong. Vou can't imagine men like .loe Hill of Richmond, Ind.: Frank Pierson of Tarrytown, N. Y.; Davis of Davenport, Iowa; Dahl of Atlanta, (ia.; Strout ol Biddeford. Me., and so on, deliberately over- looking every possible economy when they decide on the width of a house. When it came to a question of cutting a roof bar, or cutting down the bench producing space, you don't for a minute think they would sacrifice benches to bars. Wiien it comes to height of sides you can't imagine anj of them declaring that a (i-foot side is high enough, just because at that particular time they happened to be growing violets or radishes. The growers themselves, not we, first decided on the widths for our Standard Width House. They came to their decisions, because of economy and efficiency. We urge you to adopt them for exactly the same reason — none other. IRVINGTOX. N. Y. BOSTON IRVINOTON. N. y. of^&Riiniham^.

Notice the combination movable and stationary sash with angle iron eaves. The rafters and arch posts are sixteen feet eight inches apart, with inter- mediate posts to support the eaves. There is one thing that this picture does not show — steel sills are used for both lines of sash. And about those purlins agair, those members which bind to- gether and hold rigid the trus- ses, they are, in AGMCO houses, channels rather than angles such as are used by many other builders. They are three inch channels weighing six pounds per foot and will carry perfectly for the full six- teen feet eight inches and give the roof a straight line. They are double riveted and double bolted with one-half inch ma- terial. But why do we use channels for purlins rather than angles? First, because they are stronger. Second, because they cast far less shadow than Q other shapes of the same weight. t h G M C D t Q \ G Find out all about this now !

Hard Center Frog in Badly Battered Con- dition The Same Frog after it ha* been Welded by our Welder Broken Swi'tchpiece The same Switch- piece after it ha* been repaired by our Welder The })hotos above will afford you a slight idea of what you can do in repairing and reclaiming broken, battered, worn, cuppei-l and guttered track and special work by means of The INDIANAPOLIS Portable Electric Welder The repair work shown in the photographs was done in a^few minutes withaut interrupting traffic and the cost was trifling, amounting to but a few cents worth of current, steel and labor. A road frequently tolerates damaged track work rather than undergo the serious disadvantages of torn-up road beds, delayed or re-routed traffic, not to mention the expense of new layouts, lab(>r cost of excavating, laying and re-paving. Broken track work need no longer prove a much to be feared "bugbear," however. The Indianapolis Portable I-dectric Welder will straighten things (jui ill no lime. Tlu- matdiine can be drawn to the desired location and in a few hours )'our l)adly damaged track can be f)uilt u]) b}' means ijf electric welding and ground into snujoth tracti\"e surface, as good as new. This machine is equally effective in shop operations. It will reclaim thousands of dollars' worth oi broken car equipment in a year and avoid the necessity of new parts. Investigate it.

Under ordinary conditions, Grinding re- sumed. Time consumed 40 seconds. Car not delayed y Only 40 need elapse between cessation and re- sumption of grinding. Any crew can do is, any day, with the Reciprocating Grinder — and some crews are doing it in 25\econds. X:, The reasohvwhy the Reciprocating inder can be ficbodled so easily is, that se of a reciprocating instead of a rotating grinding element makes possible the construction of a light, simple ma- chine which can be run by common labor. It cannot be made to damage the track, and will surface uneven joints, producing a gradual taper or run-off on both sides of the joint by removal of the minimum amount of metal and with minimum consumption of power.
