Our Japan growers are instructed to avoid early digging and give us only ripened bulbs, such as should, with reasonable care, give good results when forced ander glass. While we cannot make any guarantee as to the result of forcing Lily Bulbs, our Japan growers understand this stock as well as any exporters
from that country. GIGANTEUM, Dark Stem
This variety has proven for the past three seasons to be the best of all-round Lily of the Japanese sorts for Easter forcing. A strong, robust grower, it seems to resist the Lily disease, growers seldom losing over 10 per cent. The large, long trumpet flowers are equally good for pot plant or for cut; has been success- fully forced for earliest Easter, and if grown properly we see no reason why it cannot be forced for early Easter of 1910.

MULTIFLORUM TYPE
While this variety has not given perfect satisfaction the past two seasons, through mixture of type and disease, many florists prefer it for Easter forcing. We believe the decreased demand will allow our growers to be more careful in rogueing their fields, and bulbs delivered this fall will be truer to type than those delivered in previous years.

LILI UM HARRISII, Indispensable for Early Forcing
While we do not claim that our “Harrisii” are absolutely free from disease, or that every bulb will produce a perfect plant, we do claim that our growers’ efforts, in the way of spraying and rogueing, are producing results, our stock being now freer from disease than ever before, and of genuine “Harrisii” type. In fact, the best general crop grown on the Island of Bermuda.

In placing our contracts with French growers we are careful to secure the largest bulbs that are obtainable and the grade of these which we offer under the name of “Star Brand” is the choicest stock to be had in France, and we are only able to obtain each year a limited number of them. Our experience has been that they are well worth the difference in price over the smaller i] grades. However, the quality which we offer under the heading “Fancy’’ is a selected grade from the general stock.

Nephrolepis Whitmani The Ostrich Plume Fern
In this we have unquestionably the most valuable Nephrolepis of the Ostrich Plume type yet introduced. Not only is it of dwarfer and more
compact habit than the N. Elegantissima, but the pinnae being more deeply divided give the plant a much more graceful appearance, while another important point ‘n its favor is the fact very few fronds have ever reverted to the common Boston Fern.

the fronds very dense and compact. In color also it is different, being of a richer, darker green. The plant is very sturdy in its habit, the fronds never breaking down. It makes a much more dwarf and com- pact growth, the fronds being very dense, firm and rigid, it will stand more knocking around than any other fern of its type.

Divided Roots are of, our division from trued-up plants and have from 3 to 5 eyes.
One Year from Division roots were divided Jast year (in a number of cases we fur- nish roots that are two years from division) and were planted out and have there- poe a much better root system than Divided Roots and will bring better blooms
ier.
September is by all means the best time to plant peonies, they will be much surer to bloom and will produce better flowers than if planted later.

In reality the number of petalsis the same as that in other Pansy flowers, but they are crimped and curled in such a fashion that the flowers appear double. The flowers are of enormous size, often 3 inches across, and the color variations and combinations are odd and striking. Trade

The Brandt. A new sprayer designed to overcome the many objections to the compressed air sprayers now on the market. Instead of pumping the air into the reservoir before starting to spray this sprayer is fitted with a pump which can be worked while you walk, thus controlling the pressure at will.’ Can be used for one or two rows. ° Reservoir holds 3 gallons of liquid, enough to spray a row a mile long, with only one filling. Price: Galyan- ized Steel Tank, $5.00.
Auto Spray. Eight to ten strokes of the plunger in air chamber will com- press enough air to discharge the entire contents and make a continuous spray for nine minutes. The “Auto Spray’’ has been improved by the addi- tion of the ‘‘Auto Pop,’’ shown in illus- tration. Briefly described, the ‘Auto Pop” is an automatic valve, which is closed by the air pressure used to operate the ‘‘Auto Spray.’ In opera- tion a lever is moved by simply closing e the hand, thus opening the valve and zag allowing an instantaneous discharge of tig spray. By releasing the lever it closes 7/ itself automatically; hence the spray is in perfect control. Price: Galvanized iron reservoir, $4.50; with Auto Pop, 35.50; solid copper reservoir, $6.00; with Auto Pop, $7.00. Brass Extension Rod, in 2-foot lengths, each, 35¢;
