A Word to the Wise is Sufficient
Fresh Giganteums are scarce, owing to very short
crop — consequently there will be little or no cold
storage stock for 1921. Be one of the wise ones, have
Lilies when your neighbors have none, by placing part
of the fresh stock in storage and growing cold storage
stock for the early Easter.

Grow Darwin Tulips
For Profit
(
Undoubtedly there is more profit in growing Darwin Tulips than any other kind o£( bujb,/|
Whether grown inside or outdoors, the cut flowers bring good prices and are in good demand. More
and more they replace the -Early Tulips. Their clear and brilliant colors and tall stems make them
much more useful. Outsi^de, they can be left undisturbed for several seasons. When forced they re-
quire little heat and the forced bulbs can be used for outside planting the next season.
While it would be more profitable for us to sell a complete line of Dutch Bulbs, still in order to
offer our customers something worth while, we carry a full line of Darwin Tulips at very attractive
prices. Darwin Tulips are scarce and in good demand. Quality is excellent, varieties are the best,
and our customers should make a liberal planting. Orders filled same day as received.
Terms: 60 days; 3% cash with order; 2% 10 days. Unknown correspondents please send cash
with order. Delivery F. O. B. Benton Harbor, Mich., or F. O. B. Chicago, 111.

Dutch, Roman, and White
Hyacinths
L'Innocencc. The best white variety for forcing.
There are practically no French Roman Hyacinths
on the market — in the later winter there will be a
demand for white hyacinths for design work that
cannot be filled with any flower better than the
"Dutch Roman." They are easily forced in flats or
pans; splendid for cutting, for use in bouquets,
centerpieces or funeral work. Big, husky bulbs
that will produce large, graceful spikes. $4.25 per
100; $36.00 per 1000.
Narcissus Paper White Grandiflora
Big, plump bulbs, 13 ctiti., up, packed 1250 to the case.
There is always a profit in forcing them; keep a batch

A splendid lot of late dug bulbs, especially well ripened,
just the thing to plant in flats and benches for cutting or

LE MARECHAL FOCH
FREE, WASHINGTON, D. C. HUNDRED AT THOUSAND PRICE
First-class Certificate Haarlem, August 4, 1919. Its color is a shade brighter
than America, flowers twice as large as America and its habit of growth is
like America. It is as early as Halley and multiplies as Halley. In a few
years Le Marechal Foch will be growing all over the U. S. A., and when
you are talking about Gladioli you will talk about Le Marechal Foch, be-
cause it is the best fine pink color, very early, has extra shipping qualities,
and every first size bulb gives three and four strong flower spikes direct
out of the bulb.
Never a Gladiolus has been introduced with such great trade possibilities.
NaI-I/^a va Imnn>4 ^^'^ J'^^'' ^ ^'^'^ several shipments for customers in the
once re impon u. S. a. A11 have been inspected by the F. H. B. in Wash-
ington and no pests at all have been found, so all customers have received the goods
in good condition. As the inspection by the F. H. B. is very exact, you have to be
sure that you get absolutely sound stuflf. We therefore beg to inform you that you
cannot order Gladioli everywhere, because the inspection has to be done also on our

TALKING TURKEY <^
(^ TO GET TRADE
Little developed, in proportion to its possibilities, Thanksgiving offers
an opportunity for increasing sales of both cut flowers and plants. Some
florists have made this holiday a big sales occasion. This season is a favor-
able one for others to make it a day of flowers as well as turkey.
lEST in chronological order
among American holidays,
Thanksgiving is far from
being first among florists'
big days. It is, indeed,
far from the position it
should hold as a sales occa-
sion for the trade. In this
J country as general ob-
servance is made of the
last Thursday in November as of Easter
Sunday. Not alone the descendants of
"the Pilgrim Fathers, but Americans of
every extraction, make this a day of
festivity and social enjoyment, whether
the time-honored turkey adorns the
festal board or is replaced by some pack-
ers' product whose price soars not so
high. Tlie big spring flower day, Easter,
is an occasion of religious observance.
Thanksgiving is an occasion of family
gatherings and household festivities.
It is celebrated, not in a church or other
public place, but in the home. The ex-
tent of its observanci is not dependent
upon anyone's attendance at services
or ceremonies; it takes place at each
hearth side, as they said in olden days,
whether, to be more modern, said hearth
side is a hotel dining room, a one-room
apartment, a brownstone city residence,
or a real place by the big fire * ' down on
the farm." In view
of this wider and
more general observ-
ance of the day, it is
hard to see why we
have not a big
autumn flower day
more nearly worthy
to rank with our big
one of spring.
Effort Needed.
Perhaps the answer
lies \^thin ourselves.
Little effort has been
made, as a general
rule, to develop sales
for Thanksgiving.
Here and there a
florist, by folders,
newspaper advertis-
ing or window display,
seeks to arouse the
interest of his patrons
at that time, and
the results are so suc-
x-essful that it is sur-
prising the example
has not been followed
more widely. During
the autumn season
the last two years, of
course, florists were
busy enough — t hey
«xperienced s u c h a
demand for flowers that they had little
time or wish to develop more. But this
year conditions are otherwise. Even
though chrysanthemums are not so plen-
tiful as they were in most markets a
year ago, other flowers are in good sup-
ply and prices are not so stiff as they
were a year ago. Moreover, the public
is becoming more and more used to
flowers for all sorts of occasions.
Why Not Now?
So what better time to start active
promotion of Thanksgiving as a flower
day than the present? The trade has
demonstrated its ability to develop a
flower occasion and will no doubt do so .
again. Thanksgiving offers us an op-
portunity.
The way has been blazed already by
members of the trade. Indeed, the trail
is pretty clearly marked out, if one
wishes to follow it to bigger sales for
Thanksgiving. There are numerous ways
of going at it, for the day lias a variety
of associations in people 's minds. It is
a day of giving thanks for national
good fortune and prosperity, being thus
semi-religious in character. It is a day
of memory, also, harking back to the
early seventeenth century in New Eng-
land— it was first celebrated in 1C21 —

recalling the Mayflower, the Pilgrim
Fathers, the Indians with whom they
dealt, the rigorous Puritan customs and
their quaint dress. It is a day, also,
associated with the harvest time, and
cornstalks, pumpkins and turkeys are
emblematic of the occasion. This last
phase of the day has encouraged the
celebration of it after the fashion of the
Pilgrims in 1621, with a bountiful re-
past. And what dinner can be preten-
tious without flowers nowadays?
Ample material is at hand, it is evi-
dent, for the florist who wishes to
develop the day by any of the means
he customarily employs, whether by
mail, by newspaper advertising, by win-
dow displays or by any other form of
publicity.
An example of a catchy form of ad-
vertisement is given on this page. It
is one of several used by Bcrtermann
Bros. Co., Indianapolis, Ind., in wliich
the turkey provided the Thanksgiving
note. Chrysanthemums in each case
formed the floral part of the decoration.
This form of illustration served to draw
attention to the advertisements — it was
striking, novel and timely. The appeal
in type was in one case to possible
guests and in another to the hostess. A
few words only were necessary to send
it home. The occa-
sion, the day itself,
is the biggest sales
factor.
Wide Variety.
But if a florist
cliooses. he can use
another subject. He
docs not have to
"talk turkey": he
can use as his theme
any of the other as-
sociations attached
to the d;iy. a number
of w h i c h are men-

thanks, of memory, of
festivity, or of merely

tive material is suitable to form the
drawing feature of the display. One
would perhaps prefer another to the
harvest phase of the day, to distinguish
the Thanksgiving day window from a
mere autumn display. The Puritan
reminiscences provide the best mate-
rial for window displays. Upon a read-
ing of some of Longfellow's poems of
those days, one could conjure up a dozen
or more different scenes easy to stage
in the florist's window as a suggestion
for Thanksgiving day and to associate
it with flowers in the minds of passers-
by. On this score the possibilities are
unlimited.
These are a few suggestions. They
should stimulate others in each florist's
mind, in keeping with his own locality
and his own facilities. But wherever
he is, the opportunity is big. Through-
out America the last Thursday in
November should bring a greater de-
mand for flowers this year than ever
before, a demand far greater if florists
of the country undertake to "talk

FLOWERS FOR FUNERAliS.
Various estimates place the propor-
tion of flowers for funerals at one-third
to one-half of the total sales of florists
iu this country. Whatever the exact
amount, there is today no other branch
of sales which comes near rivaling that
one the year around. Not without good
reason do some retailers call it their
"bread-and-butter" business.
What it amounts to in an individual
store may be seen by the illustration on
this page, which shows the work made
up for one funeral, that of the secretary
of the order of railway telegraphers,
by the C. Young & Sons Co., St. Louis,
recently. Eighteen pieces are shown,
an equal number each of baskets, sprays
and wreaths.
In this group it is interesting to note
the proportion of each type of order. It
indicates, if one may generalize there-
from, what is being generally noted in
the best florists' stores; namely, a
change from the one-time demand for
all sorts of odd designs to a call for
funeral offerings depending, not on
shape, but on artistic arrangement for
their effect. Baskets are coming more
and more into vogue for funerals. Sim-
ple sprays are largely asked for, and
tastefully made wreaths represent the
usual extent of the desire for a design.
Occasionally a florist has a call for an
odd and intricate piece, but nowadays
that is the exception. Recognition of
real beauty has led to the demand for
the looser forms of arrangement.
MAKING SPACE COUNT.
Many flower stores cover a larger
floor area than that of Penn the Florist,
in Boston, but few do so large a busi-
ness. One is inclined to wonder, upon
entering it, if this is the place whore
this firm's tremendous business is done.
For the year's total is one that would
stagger many florists. The reason that
so much can be done, and is done, in
this space is learned upon inspection.
Arrangement and system tell the tale.
How simple are the travels of an or-
der is instructive. Order tickets are in
duplicate. Both go to the cashier's
window. One goes upstairs to the
bookkeeping ofSce as the cashier's rec-
ord. The other goes to the shipping
desk, which is but a few feet from the
cashier's cage. If the order is to go out
immediately, the clerk who receives the
order gets the necessary stock and lays
it, with the order, on an adjoining table
to be made up. When this is done, the
flowers are boxed and addressed and
laid on the next table. The order ticket
is still attached. When the delivery
boy takes the box, the ticket is detached
and put aside. During the day these
tickets are taken to the bookkeeping de-
partment; they indicate that the order
has been filled and sent. In the book-
keeping department, the two copies of
each order are matched and pinned to-
gether, thus forming a complete record
of the day's transactions. Since they
are being collected and paired during
the day, a complete record of each day's
business is available early the following
morning, if not the same night.
Beginning November 1, Penn the Flo-
rist installed a National cash register
of the type that classifies each order or
parts of an order, so that at the end of
the month the firm will know how much
business was funeral work, how much
corsage orders, etc.
Of course, holiday business cannot all
be handled in this store. On special oc-
casions a neighboring store is employed
for receiving stock and making deliv-
eries. As high as 4,600 deliveries in a
day have been made from this extra
store at Easter time. During the re-
mainder of the year baskets, pottery
Quarters and Dimes for Betallera.
Nobody suggests that flower stores
imitate drug stores, which nowadays
chase the elusive nickels so assiduously
that the jimcracks on display almost, if
they do not totally, obscure the original
apothecarial purpose of such places. It
is foolish to put in so many side lines
that the main line is submerged. But
there is little danger of that with flower
stores; most of them still neglect their
legitimate opportunities.
Take, for instance, plant foods and
insecticides. How many florists carry
them? They would not be out of place
in any store which sells plants; indeed,
nearly every florist who sells plants has
numerous requests for "something to
make them grow." Not to have such
things at hand, even in sight, is a
neglect deplorable in more ways than
one. In the first place, every florist
should try to supply as many as possible
of the needs of his customers. He sup-
plies the pot cover; then why not the
bit of plant food! In the second place,
in addition to satisfying the customer's
desire, each such sale adds a quarter or
a dime to the florist's profits and does
it without adding in any way to his
overhead expenses.
Within recent times some of the large
retailers have come to appreciate that
a really desirable sum is to be added to
the annual profits in this perfectly legit-
imate way. Trying it out, numbers of
them have found it paid to have several
kinds on display and to advertise them
by means of the show cards, booklets
and envelope stuffers supplied by the
manufacturers. "Now we never fail to
mention plant food when selling potted
plants," says a prominent St. Louis
retailer. There are many good plant
foods, each having its particular advan-
tages. The housewife wants "some-
thing for her plants." Gratify her
wish.

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

guests were entertained at dinner No-

show.
Horticultural Society's Show
The chrysanthemum show held by the
Horticultural Society of New York at
the Museum of Natural History Novem-
ber 4 to 7 depended chiefly for it^ sup-
port this year on the gardeners of the
private estates in this vicinity, though a
few commercial growers made exhibits.
In the chrysanthemum classes the
Charles H. Totty Co., Madison, N. J.,
was the only commCTcial grower who
appeared in the list of awards. To this
firm went first prize for twenty blooms
with stems of not less than three feet;
for collection of twenty named varie-
ties, stems not over fifteen inches; for
collection of twenty varieties of pom-
pons and of a similar number of singles.
Kose Classes.
A larger variety of prize-winners ap-
peared in the rose classes. The F. E.
Pierson Co., Tarrytown, N. Y., won first
prizes in the classes for fifty red and
fifty dark pink. L. B. Coddington,
of Murray Hill, N. J., was second on
fifty dark pink and first on fifty flesh
or light pink, second in that class going
to the Chas. H. Totty Co.
Silver medals were awarded to the
Charles H. Totty Co. for the new rose.
Golden Ophelia, and to the F. E. Pierson
Co. for its pink sport of Francis Scott
Key.
In the foliage plant section the F. E.
Pierson Co. won two firsts and one
second.
In the orchid classes Lager & Hurrell,
Summit, N. J., staged the prize-winning
collection of not less than twenty-five
species and varieties and won the award
for the new meritorious variety not in
commerce. The Joseph Manda Co.,
West Orange, N. J., won first on three
plants of three varieties and on a col-
lection of not less than twenty-five
vases. This firm was awarded a special
prize on its display of Cypripedium in-
signe Sanderse.
Special Awards.
Special awards were given as follows:
Herman Mamitsch, Eockville Center,
N. Y., on basket of sweet peas, sport of
Eose Queen; Mills & Co., Mamaroneck,
N. Y., on display of dahlias; A. N.
Pierson, Inc., Cromwell, Conn., on pom-
pon chrysanthemums Nos. 498, 456, 461,
466 and 458; F. E. Pierson Co., on dis-
play of ferns; Julius Eoehrs Co., Euth-
erford, N. J., on collection of orchids;
Chas. H. Totty Co., on five vases roses.
The private gardeners, who staged the
greater part of the show, included the
following among the prize-winners:
Joseph A. Winsock, gardener for Mrs.
Wm. D. Guthrie, Locust Valley, N. J.;
James McManus, for Miss A. De Lamar,
Glen Cove, N. Y.; Andrew Strachan, for
Wm. B. Thompson, Yonkers, N. Y.;
James Stuart, for Mrs. F. A. Constable,
Mamaroneck, N. Y.; George Ferguson,

for S. M. and A. Colgate, Orange, N. J.,
and Anthon Pedersen, for Charles Stew-
art Smith, Stamford, Conn.
Anthony J. Manda, Hollis, N. Y., was
manager of the show.
TARRYTOWN, N. Y.
Autumn Show.
The annual fall exhibition of the Tar-
rytown Horticultural Society was held
at Music hall, November 3 to 5. The
exhibition again proved a success. Ow-
ing to the unfavorable weather condi-
tions, the exhibits of chrysanthemums
were not quite so extensive as in former
years, but they were of fine quality.
The fruit and vegetable exhibits were
far ahead of previous exhibits. Com-

deem the situation, it may be some time
before local shows will take on some-
thing of the glories of the past.
Old Features Lacking.
Ijabor conditions, and increased ex-
pense in the way of buildings and sup-
plies, turn even millionaires froni a hor-
ticultural hobby, and the revulsion is re-
flected in the shows of last week. Staged
in jiractieally the same quarters as for-
merly, the exhibits were conspicuous
through their paucity. The managers
of the shows did their best to conceal
the shortage in exhibits, but, at best,
their ingenuity was scant. The show of
the Horticultural Society of New York
occu])ied only the western aisle of the
big nuiseuiii, with the orchid section, as
usual, in the northern aisle, and a lot
of trained pl.'ints of chrysaiitluMinims,
diminutive even as the whole exhibition,
in the foyer, where once, in pre-war
days, were seen the magnificent produc-
tions of Adolph Lewisohn and others, in
spread as much as sixteen feet in
diameter. The same conilition was in
evidence ;it the American Institute's
show. But in spite of the narrowing
down of the scope of these shows, the
exhibitions were excellent.
At the American Institute.
At the American Institute the ex-
hibits generally were good. The chrys-
anlhcnuim displays were light, and, out-
si<le of the small varieties, there did not
a)>]icar to be anything new. The warm
Weather prior to the show }>revented the
staging of many flowers in course of
preparation for the exhibition. One ex-
hibitor expressed it: "The best of my
flowers melted away."
W. Milne, gardener for the H. B.
Plant estate, Oroton, Conn., carri(>d olT
the medal lor the finest flowers in the
show, staging some remarkable stock,
when conditions were considered. Geo.
E. Ferguson, gardener for Mrs. Harry
Payne Whitney, Manhasset, N. Y., also
helped materially in the make-up of the
show.
Max Schling staged two magnificent
Egyptian vases of clirysanthemuins sup-
])orted by autumn foliage and berried
branches, with an accentuated note
]iroduced by Physalis Franchetii, which
jiroved to be a great attraction to the
\'isitors.
The commercial exhibits were few; in
fact, the C. H. Totty Co., Madison, N. J.,
filled out in the commercial section.
Its group of chrysanthemums and roses
on the platform in the main hall was
su])erb, and was awarded a special prize.
The company also won the firsts in
fifteen classes of chrysanthemums and
four classes of roses.
The judges were Peter Duff, Eugene
Dailledouze, John McNichol and Wil-

Notable among the exhibits was a
new pink-rose on the order of La France
and also a pink Francis Scott Key,
exhibited by the F. R. Pierson Co. This
firm was awarded the certificate of

HOW CHICAGO DID IT
By^ffiy™^
'y4^ii?svir«\irrsvirA\ir?avir«vir«\iri«vir)«riy<wr^^^
CHICAGO HAS BIO WEEK. ^
Staged by Allied Florists.
As a means of educating the public
in regard to flowers, the "Say It with
Flowers "week which started in Chicago
Saturday, November 6, has proved a
marked success. Newspapers have been
printing feature stories concerning the
various doings of the days of "Say It
with Flowers" week; ten leading the-
aters held "Say It with Flowers"
nights; popular actresses sang the "Say
It with Flowers" song; in many
churches mention was made, November
7, of the proposed gifts of flowers to
soldiers and sailors and other inmates of
hospitals, and, last but not least, the
man in the street is talking about "Say
It with Flowers" week.
The big week opened November 6 at
the Chicago-Illinois football game at
Stagg Field. An aeroplane with "Say
It with Flowers" painted on its wings,
swooped down and bombarded the 40,-
000 people witnessing the game with
flowers. Tied to each flower was a card
informing the recipient that it was
"Say It with Flowers" week.
Events of the Week.
More aeroplane events were on sched-
ule for Monday, November 8, including
a flight over the loop, dropping carna-
tion buds with cards attached. On this
day, also, all the newspaper editors were
presented with bouquets. The direct, or
indirect, result was that the newspapers
all printed stories with large headlines.
The loop had been "Bombed with
Buds," and all Chicago heard of it.
The hospitals of Chicago and vicinity
received over 3,000 bunches of flowers
Tuesday, November 9. These were dis-
tributed to the various wards and every
patient received a bunch. That they
were appreciated goes without saying,
and by some this was considered one
of the biggest events of the week.
At the weekly luncheon of the Chi-
cago Association of Commerce, Wednes-
day, November 10, flowers were placed
on every table. These were accompa-
nied by small folders explaining the
meaning of the week, which was re-
ferred to at the luncheon.
Retail Store Displays.
A feature of the week was the flower
shows held in all the retail stores in the
city. Some of these were fine exhibi-
tions and attracted much attention.
The directors in charge of the arrange-
ments organized a special competition
for those wishing to enter their exhibi-
tions, and about fifty florists entered.
The prize-winners were: George Wien-
hoeber. first; Bohannon Floral Co., sec-
ond; H. N. Bruns, third. Honorable
mention was given the Rogers Park
Floral Co., Linea Florist, John Mangel,
A. M. Pauliss and C. A. Samuelson.
Wednesday evening, November 10,
was "Say It with Flowers" night on
Chicago's "Great White Way." More
than ten large theaters put on special
features and advertised a "Say It with
Flowers" night. These theaters were
decorated with flowers gratis by the
florists. The feature in one theater was
Constance Penny, who, in a special cos-
tume, danced a ' ' Say It with Flowers ' '
dance, an interpretation of the song,
which she later sang. Some large dance
halls featured this night as flower night,
as well.
Soldiers Remembered.
Armistice day saw a bunch of flowers
presented to every wounded or sick
soldier or sailor in Chicago. This im-
mense task was undertaken by the
American Red Cross, and due to their
excellent organization there was prac-
tically no hitch in the plan. Both army
and navy hospitals were visited and
Red Cross nurses and soldiers saw that
every hero was remembered. Effort
was made to commemorate this event
by having every citizen wear a flower
in memory of "the boys who never
came back. ' '
The directors of the Allied Florists'
Association arranged with the Visiting
Nurses' Association, which cares for
several hundred patients, crippled chil-
dren, old people and others who are too
poor to go to the hospitals, that Friday,
November 12, all these poor people
should be visited by members of the
nurses' association aid individually pre-
sented with flowers.
Florists' Club Dance.
The last big feature planned for the
week is a dance, Friday night, Novem-
ber 12, planned at the meeting of the
Chicago Florists' Club just a week be-
fore. It is to be held in the Colonial ball-
room of the Hotel Randolph, which is to
be profusely decorated for the occasion.
Florists, their ladies and their friends
are to be the only guests. Over 275
tickets had been sold by the opening of
the week. The committee in charge of
the arrangements of the dance is com-
posed of T. E. Waters, A. T. Pyfer, Paul

Week a Success.
The week has Ikmmi a marked success.
Members of the trade have worked to-
gether splendidly. They have thrown
open their doors to welcome the public
to their indi\i(lual llower shows. Ban-
ners ap]H'ared on delivery and jirivate
c.-irs. Posters are dis]ilayed in nearly all
iiie windows. Thousands of folders, sup-
]ilied by the ilii-ecturs, have been used
judiciously by the retailers.
The Chira^'o daily ji.apers featured the
"Say It with I'luwcrs" week in their
news columns. While this jmblicity is
of a general nature, the trade cannot
but benefit by it. Feature stories sug-
gesting the wearing of a flower on
Armistice day must influence the public
to some extent. Secretary Swenson, of
the Allied Florists' Association, esti-
mated that if tlie free publicity that has
been obtained were to be paid for at
regular advertising rates, it would cost
the association over $5,000.
The directors of the Allied Florists'
Association were in control of all ar-
rangements for the week and they,
together with Secretary II. V. Swenson
and President George Asmus, deserve
great credit for the success of the cam-
paign. Besides President George Asnius,
the board consists of William J. Smyth,
August Lange, John Michelsen, Paul
Klingsj)orn, Fric Johnson, August F.
Pochlmann, Otto Amling and Peter
Pearson.

PARISIAN FLOWER STORES.
Change from German.
Before leaving Germany for France I
visited P>furt and saw the famous green-
houses and gardens of J. C. Schmidt. The
grounds, I was told, still h.ave their pre-
war beauty, but the greenhouses for the
most part will soon be shut down on ac-
count of the lack of coal. A new road-
way or drive is being built, along which
the horticultural work will be equal to
anything in Kiirojie. The landscape work
in general surrounding the houses and
olliees surpasses any tiling we have in
America of a commer<ial nature. From
j)0stcards on sale at the ofiice one can
get a slight idea of the grandeur of the
place in former years, and also of the
quality of the stock at one time grown
in the hou'^cs. At present, due to eco-
nomic conditions, this sj)lendid produc-
tion has been reduced.
I found such cities as Leipsic, Nurem-
berg and Stuttgart similar to other Ger-
man cities in regjird to the character of
their flower stores.
It was surprising to see the large num-
ber of stores in Germany sidling arti-
ficial flowers. They handle only made-
up baskets, wreaths, etc., both" for fu-
nerals and wedclings.
Few Plants in Paris
In Paris one sees an entirely difl'erent
class of llower stores. The good tlower
stores handle few, if any, small flower-
ing plants, while in Germany, as in the
T'nited States, these pl.-ints are plentiful.
Paris dis]ilays her tlor.al art in gorgeous
baskets and hamjiers, in wonderfully de-
signed center]«ieces, or in large pieces of
disjilay. I could not begin to name the
varieties of orchids usually assembled
in one jiiece. One of these pieces usually
is the center of attraction in the win-
dow, surrounded by vases and baskets of
less pretentious, if not more beautiful,
flowers. There is ever the sense of fresh-
ness in these display.s, as if they had
,inst that minute been placed there. The
flowers on disjilay are always of such
an unusually large size, especially to the
American eye, that doubt is often ex-
jiressed as to their being real.
The present disjday of flowers, includ-
ing roses, orchids, violets, chrvsanthe-
miims and carnations, looks like exhibi-
tion stock, having for foliage as many
varieties as a French chef has sauces.
Anything that has berries on it is used
jirofiisidy in all kinds of work. Rasp-
berry foliage, with un ripened berries is
generally used with yellow roses and the
effect is beautiful.
Just now a largo berried holly is in
evidence. I have seen numerous other
decorations used, but my lack of knowl-
edge of the French tongue forbids my
even ascertaining their najnes. But I
feel sure there is no foliage of any kind
which can jiossibly be used that is not
seen at the flower stores.
I have seen the largest dahlias in
Paris that I have ever seen. They are
in every color and variety imaginable
and some even beyond imagination.
Many Street Peddlers.
The street peddlers are interesting,
especially at the flower market at the
Madelaine on flower days. Here the
display of fancy outdoor stock ot*en out-
classes that in the best stores and prices
are good. Every' cart and stand has its
supply of straw frames, wreaths and
cro.sses in case a funeral piece is wanted,
but bouquets are most iiojiular, being
purchased by peojtle in all walks of life.
Some of tlie better stores use a green-
covered wire in their fancy bouquet
work. Green sheet moss is used exten-
sively in baskets and other arrangements
for tlie display of flowers.
h'lowers at juesent are not expensive
for the American buyer, but the French
flower lover feels the cost a little more.
At this writing the French franc, whose
normal value is one-fifth of an Ameri-
can dollar, is now rated at one-fifteenth.
It therefore can be seen by the follow-
ing scale of prices that there are two
views of prices in the flower market:
Orchids, which are seen in dozens of
varieties compared with the small num-
ber displayed in America, sell at 30
francs each.
Chrysanthemums of the best size are
180 francs a dozen.
Roses of all varieties, usually the best
in their class, bring 60 francs a dozen.
A basket of twelve superb dahlias was
sold for 70 francs.
In the best class of flower stores
plants are conspicuous for their absence,
with the exception, perhaps, of cycla-
mens and hydrangeas. These ^are
usually of the larger types.
Of course there are the street venders,
who, especially in the outdoor flower
markets, on special days of the week
handle fine stock. There one can buy
flowers at a reasonable price.
French Artistic Nature.
At this time of the year, the harvest
season, the flower stores display a va-
riety of small pumpkins, squashes and
other highly-colored vegetables and
fruits, such as peppers, apples, pears,
persimmons and figs. Their table pieces
tempt both the sense of smell and the
ajjpetite — a good combination.
I wish I could further describe the
floral creations of the Parisian florists,
which differ materially from the work of
our own florists. This taste is what the
natives and the Americans visit iirg
France call "chic," an indefinable
something peculiar to this people in
every artistic effort attempted.

AUTUMN ADS APPEAR.
The autumn opening of the florists'
cooperative advertising campaigns in
various cities took j>lace during the first
week in November. Some of them, of
course, have been using space in local
payiers during the summer as occasion
offered. Now, however, they are in-
creasing their activity and unlimbering
hea\y artillery for action, f^lsewhere
in this issue is described Chicago's pub-
licity in connection with "Say It with
Flowers" week in that city.
In St. Louis the first gun of the fall
campaign went off in the Globe-Demo-
crat last week. It advertised "The
Radiant Flower of Autumn, Chrysanthe-
mums." Alongside an illustration of a
chrys.anthemum bloom ran the follow-
ing:

CHICAGO FLORISTS' CLUB.
Election of Officers.
At the monthly meeting of the Chi-
cago Florists' Club, Thursday evening,
November 4, nomination of oflBcers for
1921 was held. For each office the
nomination was unanimous, Ex-presi-
dent T. E. "Waters declining another
term in order to leave the nomination
of Joseph Kohout for president unan-
imous. The other officers for the com-
ing year are: Vice-president, A. T.
Pyfer; treasurer, A. H. Schneider, Oak
Park, and secretary, Fred Lauten-
schlager. August F. Poehlmann, whose
term as trustee had expired, was re-
nominated for another three years.
One application for membership was
read, that of Albert Schmidt. Secretary
Lautenschlager, in his report, made
reference to the tremendous growth of
the membership list. There have been
forty-six new members to date this year.
This is an increase of over twenty-five
per cent.
Becommend Honorary Memberships.
^rention was made of the resignation
of Ernst C. Amling, who has settled
in California, and his name and that
of Oscar J. Friedman were referred to
tlio trustees and recommended for hon-
orary memberHliips. It was also voted
that a basket of fruit be sent to Roin-
hold Schiller, who is ill in a hospital.
President Waters in a short address
made mention of members recently de-
ceased and those present stood in silence
wliilc he read the names of Charles
Hunt and Thomas J. Long.
It was voted that an invitation be
extended to the Chrysanthemum Society
of America to hold its annual exhibition
in Chicago next year. It is held this
week at Washington, D. C. A tenta-
tive committee to investigate possible
ni'(f)innioilntioii was appointed by the
cliair and consisted of C. W. Johnson,
chuirman, Fred Lautenschlager and N.
J. Wictor.
A bill of Mrs. Ella Grant "Wilson for
publicity work during the annual meet
ing of the American Carnation Society
last January was brought before the
club. One-third of this had been as-
sumed by the Chicago Retail Florists"
Association and another third by the
Allied Florists' Association. It was
voted that the Chicago Florists' Clul.«
assume payment of the remaining thinl.
The total bill amounted to about $270.
"Say It with Flowers" Week.
The committee on "Say It with
Flowers" week had no definite report
to make, except that everything was
being made ready. George Asmus said
that the estimated cost would be be-
tween $6,000 and $7,000. It was ex
pected, he said, that the week would bo
opened with a proclamation by Mayor
Thom{)son.
President Waters brought up the idea
of a dance to be held during "Say It
with Flowers" week. After some dis
'Hussion the idea was enthusiasticnllv
adopted by the club and the good-of-thc-
club committee was empowered to ar-
range details. As a guarantee of the
financial su|)port of the club, members
were asked to subscribe for tickets and
in five minutes 160 tickets at $1 each
were spoken for by sixteen members.
The night chosen was Friday, November
12, and it was proposed to call the
dance the "Say It with Flowers" ball.
It will be held at the Hotel Randolph.
In addition to the party November 12
the committee has arranged progressive
cards, any game the ladies like to play,
for the entertainment of those who do
not dance.
Armistice day, November 11, it is
proposed that every soldier in every hos-
pital in the city receive a floral token.
Among the other plans outlined for the
big week was that at a football game
Saturday, November 6, an aeroplane
should fly over the field and drop flowers
on the spectators of the game below.
It was suggested that while members
were subscribing for the expenses of
the big week the "Say It with
Flowers" pennants still remaining be
disposed of. Secretary Lautenschlager
passed among the members and sue-
(•(^eiled ill disi)osing of all but twenty-
five. Tliesc pennants are being used on
florists' automobiles this week.

The Florists' Review
NOTBIfBBB 11. 1920
For the exhiliition committee it was
announced that the next meeting night
would be novelty night, and the com-
mittee hoped that the members would
send sufficient exhibits to make a good
showing.
Clifford Lowther, for the transporta-
tion committee, reported on the recent
trip to Indianapolis, to the convention
of the Florists' Telegraph Delivery As-
sociation.
C. H. Totty, for the flower show com-
mittee, reported arrangements for the
flower show next spring to be well under
way.
Secretary Young announced that the
club had lost two members by death,
William Plumb, a past president, and
E. C. Horan. The demise of Mrs. Allen,
wife of James K. Allen, was also re-
ported. On motion, the chair was di-
rected to appoint a committee to pre-
pare memorial resolutions.
Most of the evening was taken up
with a discussion of the movement in
the direction of publicity to be promoted
by the newly organized Allied Florists'
Association of New York. Frank H.
Traendly reported that at a meeting of
the New York Wholesale Florists' Pro-
tective Association November 5 the sum
of $2,600 was collected to be used for
publicity purposes.
Several candidates were put in nomi-
nation for election at the next meeting.
The Exhibits.
A. N. Pierson, Inc., Cromwell, Conn.,
staged one vase each of Chrysanthemums
Nellie Irwin, Elizabeth McDowell and
Izola, for which a vote of thanks was
awarded. A collection of thirty-five va-
rieties of ^eedling single and pompon
chrysanthemums exhibited by the same
company was awarded a silver medal,
and special mention was made of the
variety New York, for which the com-
mittee on awards recommended a pre-
liminary certificate.
W. A. Manda, Inc., South Orange,
N. J., made a display of chrysanthemum
seedling No. 8, for which a vote of
thanks was awarded. J. H. P.
NEW YORK.
The Market.
The market is still suffering from an
oversupply of stock. Outside material,
such as cosmos, dahlias and small chrys-
anthemums, continues to arrive and
hampers the movement of indoor-grown
flowers. The supply of single-stemmed
chrysanthemums shows little sign of de-
crease and is much in advance of de-
mand. Most of the late varieties are
being cut and it is expected that the
mum season will close early this year.
White and pink Chieftain, Bonnaffon,
Marigold, Charles Eager and McNiece
are among the offerings.
Roses are abundant and, with so
many other flowers available, move
rather slowly. American Beauty is not
in particularly large supply, "but the
demand for it is not active and the
prices of specials remain about the same
as last quoted. Hybrid teas are plenti-
ful, with movement slow at prices about
the same as last week. The best Had-
leys are bringing as much as $30 and
Crusaders a little better. Francis Scott
Key is of oxcolleut quality and brings
$50 for selected flowers.
The suj)])ly of carnations is ample,
but the demand is weak, probably on ac-
count of the short stems of many of the
arrivals.
There is a fair demand for cattleyas,
which are arriving in somewhat in-
creased supply. The labiata variety is
supplemented by a few Trianse and Per-
civaliana. The price range is 50 cents
to $1, with proportionately more for
hybrids, which are in but small supply.
A few cypripediums are available and
some oncidiums.
Lilies are not in large supply, yet
quite sufficient for the rather small de-
mand. Lily of the valley is plentiful
enough for the small demand and moves
slowly.
Numbers of violets are coming in, but
the demand for them is light, the
weather not favoring them. The singles
seem to be in better favor than the dou-
bles this season, the quality being bet-
ter. Sweet peas are arriving in small
lots and move within a range of $2 to $4
per hundred. Narcissi, mostly Paper
Whites, continue to arrive in small
quantity, but their sale drags.
Chrysanthemums are hard to quote,
prices varying from day to day, accord-
ing to accumulations. The large number
of arrivals make it absolutely necessary
to accomplish clearances, and bargain
prices are common.
Various Notes.
William Plumb, for many years con-
nected with the trade in and around
New York, but for the last few years
engaged in landscape work in Cuba,
came up from Havana last week and
engaged a room at the Hotel Breslin.
e was taken ill Saturday night, Novem-
ber 6, and passed away before medical
tention could be secured. His many
fi^ends in New York were shocked to
hear of his sudden death. An obituary
will Bfi found elsewhere in this issue.
The executive board of the American
Dahlia Society entertained the judges
who officiated at the society's recent
show in New York at lunch at the
Pennsylvania hotel Thursday, November
4. President Vincent and Secretary
Vick furnished particulars which showed
that the exhibition was a decided suc-
cess, resulting in a substantial balance
for the treasury after meeting all ex-
penses. After the lunch there was a
meeting of the executive board.
The special meeting of retailers held
at the Chemists' Club Wednesday eve-
ning, November 3, was poorly attended,
only about forty being present, of whom
twenty-four were retailers. The matter
of supporting the publicity campaign
planned by the newly organized Allied
Florists' Trade Association of New
York was discussed at length, but, on
account of the small attendance, no ac-
tion was taken, it being decided to hold
another meeting shortly. The retailers
pledged themselves to bring others, so
as to have a representative gathering.
Anthony J. Manda and Walter Man-
da have taken over the greenhouse
property of Florent Spiegeler, at Hollis,
L. I., and will continue the business
under the style of the Hollis Nurseries,
producing both plants and cut flowers.
There are six greenhouses on the prop-
erty, about 15,000 square feet alto-
gether.
Says the Chatham, N. B., World, of
October 22: "Four American gentle-
men were at the Touraine hotel Monday
with the heads of three moose and four
deer they had shot in the Bartibogne
region under the guidance of Mr.
Connell. They spent about two weeks
on the hunting ground." The gentle-
men referred to were Roman J. Irwin,
New York; Wallace R. Pierson, Crom-
well, Conn.; F. C. W. Brown, Cleveland,
0., and Ernest Gude, Washington, D. C.
Recent visitors were: George W.
Kerr, of the W. Atlee Burpee Co., Ford-
hook, Pa.; Richard Vincent, Jr., Whit©
Marsh, Md.; George L. Stillman, West-
erly, R. I. ; J. K. Alexander, East Bridge-
water, Mass.
Robert E. Berry, well known land-
scape gardener, has permanently settled
at Kingsport, Tenn., where he is estab-
lishing a 20-acre nursery to produce
planting material for the town, which is
being developed as a manufacturings
center and will be made a city of homes
something after the style of parts of
Rochester, N. Y., and Dayton, O.
C. H. Totty, Madison, N. J., gave a
talk on chrysanthemums before the Park.
Garden Club of Flushing, N. Y., Monday-
afternoon, November 8. J. H. P.
Irving Aronson, who was on the sales
staff of Schloss Bros., Inc., New York,
for the last eight years, has gone into
partnership with Harry H. White, for
the last three years assistant buyer
for the same concern, and they are-
doing business as the Whitehouse Rib-
bon Co., at 37 East Twenty-eighth street.
SALT LAKE CITY, UTAH.
The Market.
A large supply still features the mar-
ket. Chrysanthemums have the big call
and move fairly well at good prices.
Turner brings as high as $12 per dozen,
retail, while other varieties go at $5 to
$8 per dozen. Pompons in all colors-
bring from 25 to 50 cents, wholesale.
Roses of excellent quality are plenti-
ful and move well for the mum season.
Columbia, Hoosier and Dunlop are the
popular leaders, selling as high as $25
per hundred, wholesale, while Ophelia,
Shawyer, Milady and White Killarney
range from $7 to $20 per hundred.
The carnation supply is picking up,
but is still short of the demand. Carna-
tions sell at from $3 to $7 per hundred.
Laddie has again made its appearance.
The first blooms are rather short, but
bring $10 per hundred. A few blooms
of Paper Whites may be had.
Various Notes.
Three or four days before election
were rather slow, but October business
shows a little improvement over last
year, though the increased cost will no
doubt absorb the extra receipts.
Robert Newcomb, of the Burlington
Willow Ware Shops, Burlington, la.,
was in town November 2, showing a new
line of stock.
The new rose, Dunlop, is meeting with
much favor among growers and retailers
in this section. Some growers believo
it is the best find this season. G. J. B.
Houlton, Me. — Newell 's, who are flo-
rists and milliners, are progressing. They
have just completed the erection of ai.
Hitchings greenhouse.
Apopka, Fla. — The new firm known
as the Apopka Fernery Co. has now-
threo acres under slats. It is making a
specialty of growing Asparagus plu-
mosus and Sprengeri. The concern is
supported by local capital and will con-
tinue building until ten acres are cov-
ered.

Your plants are probably affected
with the carnation leaf-spot disease.
This is usually brought on through ex-
cessive humidity, which is quite likely
to occur in your warm climate. Pick off
all the affected leaves possible and then
spray thoroughly with Bordeaux mix-
ture. Keep all other water off the
foliage until you have the disease under
control. Give abundant ventilation on
all favorable occasions and keep a dry,
buoyant atmosphere. Give enough water
at the roots to promote a strong growth,
but do not apply any fertilizers until the
plants resume a normal growth.

CUTWORMS ON CARNATIONS.
Our carnations are being spoiled by
some worm or insect which eats a hole
in the side of the bud and hollows out
the flower. It also attacks partly opened
flowers. We have never been able to
find any worms or insects at work.
What remedy would you suggest!
B. & S.— Mich.
Your carnation buds are being eaten
by cutworms. The reason you do not
see them is because they feed at night.
If you will take a strong light and go
among the carnation beds after mid-
night, you will probably find them. To
get rid of them, use poisoned bait.
Take ordinary bran and mix a mash
by adding molasses. Then mix with it
efiOugh Paris green to make it poisonous
and drop a spoonful here and there on
the beds. The feed stores sell an alfalfa-
molasses horse feed which we have
used after mixing it with Paris green.

NEED CAREFUI. CULTIVATION.
Under separate cover I am sending
you a sample of my carnations. Almost
all of them are rusty, below or at the
roots, and some are dying. They have
new soil and I give them plenty of air.
I have never seen this before this year,
although I have inspected some of the
big greenhouses near here.
I am spraying them with a solution
of formaldehyde, three-quarters of a pint
to fifty gallons of water.
L. U.— Kan.
The plants were too badly dried up to
give any idea as to the cause of your
trouble. I could see no signs of rust,
but believe the plants have never taken
hold in the new soil, "^ater them mod-
erately, but not too sparingly, and keep
the surface of the soil loosened to a
depth of about half an inch. A light
The Market.
Last week found this market a little
more settled than it was the previous
week. Stock is beginning to arrive in
better condition and sales show an im-
provement.
Mums are now arriving in large quan-
tities and are finding ready sale,, some
selling at $4 per dozen, including Tur-
ner, Eaton and Marigold. Pompons are
arriving in a larger assortment of
colors and sell well. Eoses have been
unusually good, especially Premier and
Mme. Butterfly. They are finding a
good market here, which is exceptional,
as they are usually MDt in demand dur-
ing the mum season.
Snapdragons are showing the result
of the bright sunshine and clean up
well.
Carnations and lilies are not going
well, because of the mums. Violets are
arriving in larger quantities and mov-
ing fast. A good week was noted in
the sales of southern smilax and bitter-
sweet, due to the fact that a number of
decoration orders were filled.
Various Notes.
C. E. Critchell reports a banner week
in the sale of large mums, of which he
is receiving daily shipments from
Joseph H. Hill, of Richmond, Ind., and
Charles Pf eiffer 's Sons, of Fort Thomas,
Ky.
Hardesty & Co. deserve credit for
keeping their window displays up to the
minute. This week found the windows
decorated with mum plants and cut
blooms.
The William Murphy Co. is receiving
some excellent snapdragons from
Charles Murphy, Price Hill, and some
exceptional Hoosier Beauty from An-
ders Easmussen, New Albany, Ind.
C. J. Ohmer, of West Palm Beach,

H. W. Sheppard had a good week,
receiving many F. T. D. orders and con-
tracts to decorate for debutante fes-
tivities.
Tromey's Flower Shop has been kept

WILL PRICES STAY UP?
With the prices in all other lines fall-
ing, how much longer is the retail florist
going to be compelled to keep on increas-
ing the price of flowers? We are glad
to admit that the standard of business
has been raised nearer to the point it
should occupy in the last two years, but
the present is no time for further in-
creases.
Flowers during the present season are
of a poorer quality and higher in price
than a year ago. Due to advertising,
there have been many new uses created
for flowers. Had the merchants and
manufacturers of the country the fore-
sight at the beginning of the present
season to maintain last year's prices
or be satisfied with a slight reduction,
they would not be voicing their regrets
at the present time.
During the present season the busi-
ness in position to increase the volume
of sales while maintaining last year 's
prices will have easy sailing. Some of
us at the present time are kidding our-
selves that there will be less competi-
tion- this year than last. We are due for
an awakening. Selling will be more of
an art in the future than in the past.
All other lines have been heavily adver-
tised at reduced prices.
It is time to be up and doing. If the
National Flower Growers' Association
intends to improve the quality of stock,
the members will be sure of fair prices
and it will serve a useful purpose. If
their intention is only to increase prices,
there will be no excuse for the organiza-
tion's existence.
At the F. T. D. convention it was
stated that purchases should cost no
more than thirty-three per cent of the
selling price. The retailer, the man who
has the final disposition of the stock, is
lucky under present conditions to hold
his percentage at fifty. And taking last
year's prices as a basis, his prospects
for profit for the coming year are
rather gloomy, according to published
averages.
More cooperation is to be wished for
among the trade. At the present time
it would benefit the retailer to study the
reason for the drop in the percentage
of funeral work. It has not maintained
the increase it should in comparison with
the rest of the business. Everybody
realizes that it is profitable.
The retail florist should take a greater
interest in flower shows and exhibitions.
A splendid grower may be a poor dis-
play man, and flowers should be dis-
played to the public to their best advan-
tage. J. A. Cannon.

office not later than November 20.
It is two years since florists as a class
stopped pushing for business. For the
greater part of the time since the armis-
tice there has been more demand than
stock. If this is not to be the case in
future the trade soon will adjust itself
to the new condition and each will pros-
per according to the effort made.
A STRICTER code of commercial moral-
ity will be forced on florists, among
others, by the new set of business condi-
tions being brought about by deflation.
The days when there were more buyers
than sellers are gone. The man who
does not give value or who fails to ad-
just legitimate complaints will lose busi-
ness so rapidly- he soon will be eliminated
from the competition.
Retail prices in the florists' trade, it
has been said, are not quickly influenced
by changes in wholesale markets, but it is
being demonstrated that the retiEiil prices
of other commodities are still slower to
follow down when wholesale prices break.
Nearly all the necessities of life have
fallen from twenty-five to fifty per cent
in replacement cost in the last six months,
but consumers have scarcely begun to feel
the change in the cost of living. Retail
florists, on the other hand, having stock
only for the day, are selling on the basis
of the present market level. And it
transpires that the florists' business is
not exceptional, as many of us thought,
in the difference between what the con-
sumer pays and what the producer gets.
Wholesale prices in mercantile lines
during November were the lowest in
eighteen months, according to Dun's re-
view of business.
An illustrated 32-page booklet from
the flower shop Corona, 175 Kalverstraat,
Amsterdam, Holland, shows specimens of
its basket and design work. The mana-
gers are ifoh. H. and J. J. Groenewegen.
The Horticultural Trade-Journal, a
leading British publication, reprinted on
the first page of its October 20 issue
the article of Charles H. Totty, in The
Review of September 9, on " Travels
among British Trade."
For advertising purposes only, Penn
the Florist orders from California each
autumn seventy-five dozen large chrysan-
themums, which are exhibited in the store
in Boston after they have made the trans-
continental journey. The notice such an
exhibit receives is worth much expensive
newspaper space.
Don't cut wages. It is probable that
the reversal of the farm-to-lactory move-
ment, which has begun, will steadily in-
crease the volume of labor open for em-
ployment in greenhouses, but it will be
a mistake to reduce the pay. The future
of the business is best assured by keeping
wages up to a point which will make the
work attractive to intelligent young men.
COAL PRICES DBOPPINa.
The coal situation at present is more
favorable for those growers who have
not yet secured their full winter's sup-
ply than it has been at any time this
summer or autumn. It is regarded as
more than likely that the demand for
bituminous coal will show a marked de-
crease in the near future and those who
are in touch with the situation believe
this is one of the principal reasons for
the drooping market at present. Deal-
ers have begun to realize that with
heavy production and a freer car sup-
ply there is really nothing to keep
prices up and it is expected that within
a few weeks quotations will have
reached normal levels on practically all
grades of fuel.
In the meantime most of the coal
speculators and fly-by-night concerns
have been driven from the field. Re-
sponsible coal men appear to be highly
pleased over this change in the situa-
tion, for it was felt all along that these
speculators had a greater share in the
manipulation of prices than any other
factor. They simply took advantage of
a temporary situation to spread erro-
neous reports regarding an alleged im-
pending shortage and managed in scores
of instances to take orders at prices that
were not warranted by actual conditions
in the market.
Production of soft coal is certainly
being maintained along the most en-
couraging lines. For the fourth week
in succession the 12,000,000 mark has
been exceeded. This is due in a large
measure to the attitude of labor, which
is returning to the mines in large num-
bers from other industries where wages
had proved far more attractive. The
miners seem to be satisfied, generally
speaking, and operators are in hopes
that no disturbances will arise in the
future. With labor on the job, thus
insuring large and efficient production,
greenhouse men need have no worries
about a possible shortage of coal.
Price declines last week were marked.
The action of the Cleveland operators
to lower prices had a telling effect on
the market. The slowing up of manu-
facturing operations has also caused a
slackening in demand for bituminous
coal. Despite the fact that export and
bunker demands are still heavy, prices
in this division, where they have been
highest, seem to be approaching normal
levels, giving growers hope of an early
supply for their needs at reasonable
prices.
BUSINESS IS BBISE.
The trade in the middle west reports
plant business brisk, like this:
Kindly discontinue our ad of holly ferns; all
sold by the first Insertion. — J. S. Wilson Floral
Co., Des Moines, la., November 7, 1920.
We are sold out for the present and have to
return money by every mail. We never want
for buyers when we advertise In The Review. —
Klrkwood Floral Co., Des Moines, la., November
e, 1920.
We have sold out on plumosus for the present,
thanks to The Review. — Charles T. May, Dayton,
C, November 6, 1920.
If you hear a man complain of tha,
cost of advertising you can be pretty
certain he spends a good bit of money
elsewhere than in The Review.
BRIEF ANSWEB&
C. B., Minn. — Clematis coccinea is the
name usually given in the trade, al-
though the correct botanical name is C.
texensis. It is probably a variety of C.
Viorna and Asa Gray considered it
such.
C. M., Ind. — Clematis coccinea, botani-
cally known as C. texensis, is somewhat
variable in leaf, which is sometimes
almost round and in other cases oval.
E. C. M., N. J. — There are white, rose
and purple forms of Gladiolus Kunderdi
Glory and probably Mr. Kunderd has
additional shades.
A SIX-CYUNDEB PABABLE.
There's some food for thought for
florists as well as other kinds of people
in "A Six-Cylinder Parable" by the
business manager of the New York
Evening Post:
"There pnce was an Automobile
Driver whd used all Six Cylinders go-
ing Down Grade, but when he came to
a Hill he took the wires off two Spark
Plugs and tried to negotiate the hill on
Four Cylinders. You will agree that
he was a Pretty Foolish Driver.
"Yet a Lot of advertisers are Jast
Like Him. Last fall and winter, when
they couldn't supply their Customers'
Demands (the Going was Good), they
advertised on a very Large Scale
(used Six Cylinders). Now that they
have Struck the Upgrade, quite a Few
of them are Deliberately getting out
and taking the Wires off two of their
Spark Plugs. Just like the Grocer who
Pulled Down the Curtains in his store
because his groceries Weren't Selling.
"Other advertisers Took an Oppo-
site View. They ran on Six Cylinders
in good times; now they are running
on Six and Giving her a lot of Extra
Gas. When others are Dropping Out
they are going Strong.
"A lot of Pessimists say we are in
for a business depression This Winter.
Those who Discharge their Best Sales-
men doubtless will find business slow.
But think — how much Better it would
be for Everyone to keep On His Toes
and when business shows Signs of Slow-
ing Down, step on the Gas, keep Hit-
ting on All Six — and take the Hill on
High!"

William Plumb.
William Plumb, president of the New
York Florists' Club for two terms, 1898
and 1899, died at the Hotel Breslin,
New York, on the evening of November
6, of heart failure superinduced by an
attack of pleurisy. During the last few
years he had been engaged in landscape
work in Cuba, making his headquarters
at Havana.
In the early days of the New York
Florists' Club's history he was one of
its stanch supporters, and figured in
the flower shows of those times as a
capable manager, particularly in the
shows held at Madison Square Garden,
then and now one of New York 's great-
est exhibition halls. He was well quali-
fied as a gardener and horticulturist for
his undertakings, which included the
development of both private estates
and commercial establishments. When
preparations were in progress for the
big Panama-Pacific exposition, at San
Francisco, he was appointed superin-
tendent of the department of horticul-
ture.
Mr. Plumb was possessed of a most
charming personality, which endeared
him to a host of friends. He arrived in
New York from Havana Tuesday,
November 2. He had not been feeling
well, and remained in seclusion until
November 6, when he felt somewhat
better and entertained his nephew,
Charles Plumb, to whom he explained
his unannounced visit as due to the fact
that financial conditions in Cuba made it
possible for him to come north to renew
acquaintance with his friends. When he
retired to his room, his illness asserted
itself to such an extent that he died be-
fore medical aid could reach him. He
was born seventy years ago, in Hunting-
don, Hants county, England, the birth-
place of Oliver Cromwell. The deceased
was a member of the S. A. F., F. & A. M.,
Knights Templar, Shriners, Odd Fellows
and Elks. He leaves a widow and one
daughter, Mildred, both residents of
Boston. The body was taken to Boston
Monday, November 8, where interment
was made. J. H. P.
Oeorge Williams.
George Williams, a veteran florist of
Indianapolis, Ind., died Saturday even-
ing, November 6. Several years ago he
organized the firm of George Williams
& Son, but recently he relinquished
active participation in the business.
His son, Earle, now manages the busi-
ness.
August F. Hoffmeister.
August F. Hoffmeister died at the
home of his sister, Mrs. William San-
ders, at Westwood, Cincinnati, O.,
Wednesday, November 3, after a linger-
ing illness. He was 55 years of age.
Mr. Hoflfmeister and his two sisters
organized the Hoffmeister Floral Co.
twenty-five years ago. Later they spe-
cialized in the growing of Easter lilies
and were one of the largest concerns of
that nature west of New York. Mr.
Hoffmeister was known as the "Ohio
lily king." During the last year he
had been residing on his farm near
Amelia, O. He was a member of the
William Plumb.
Cincinnati Florists' Club, the Society
of American Florists and the American
Forestry Association.
Besides Mrs. Sanders, three sisters,
Mrs. Emma Wendland and the Misses
Margaret and Caroline Hoffmeister, and
the deceased's mother survive him. The
funeral services were held at Spring
Grove cemetery, G. H. K.
George Manton, for many years a
grower in Toronto, died November 5.
Mr. and Mrs. J. A. Neal have moved
to the city for the winter, after spend-
ing the summer at their farm.

TORONTO, ONT.
The big event of the week was the
flower show conducted by Toronto retail
florists. This annual mum show is held
In the individual flower shops. There
were some beautiful window displays.
The usual immense exhibition mums were
missing, but there were thousands of
other kinds, including beautiful Turners,
for which there was a good sale. The
show had the effect of making all flo-
rists make use of their windows and
make special decorations. Some of
these windows were arranged with
baskets of mums and others contained
banks of mums, these banks extending
into the stores in some cases.
The demand for wedding decorations
has fallen off considerably during the
last week, but there are many requests
for decorations for teas, which appear
to be the order of the day. These deco-
rations consist chiefly of palms, ferns
and mums.
The cut flower trade is good and the
demand for design work continues.
A. W. Doughty has reentered the flo-
rists' trade after an absence of a year.
His new store is on Danforth avenue.
J. P. McCarthy, of the M. Rice Co.,
Philadelphia, was in town last week.
CHICAGO.
The Market.
Last week 's election excitement had
no sooner subsided than the market ex-
perienced a nice little boom. The reason
seemed to be that nearly all the retailers
who draw stock from Chicago's whole-
sale district had carried as little as pos-
sible over the days of the landslide and
its aftermath; as soon as the distraction
passed the stores all stocked up again
and made of the end of the week a veri-
table little holiday. As the supply of
flowers was not large, prices were im-
proved and practically everything was
cleaned up Saturday night.
Business not only is good, but it is
running up sales totals ahead of the
record for the same time last year. In
October this result was attained on
quantity sold.at low prices, but now it is
the result of small supply sold at better
prices than prevailed last year. In
no line is the supply large. Dur-
ing the chrysanthemum season none
of the growers cares to bring in
a heavy crop of anytliing else and
this year there are not many mums.
Last year's oversupply and low prices
had the usual result; for this market
not nearly so many mums or pompons
were planted as in 1919. Consequently,

much better prices are being realized.
Th& demand is strongest for the finest,
big blooms, but the medium and small
flowers are selling at fine prices. Bon-
naflfon is the most abundant variety and
flowers which were well sold last year at
10 to 12 cents arc bringing 15 to '20
cents; it takes 25 to 30 cents to get
really good stock. White is in almost
as strong request, but the supply of
pink is lacking. Pompons also are sell-
ing better than in recent years. It may
be noted in passing that the smaller
quantity and better prices are condu-
cive to more careful handling. There
will not be many mums for Thanksgiv-
ing.
There is nothing new to be said of
roses or the demand for them. The
supply is not large and the call cleans
them up pretty steadily at prices which
it seems should be profitable. As usual,
each day sees an increase in the aver-
age length of the stems; there are few
shorts after the first crop is cut

from the young plants. At the same
time the majority of growers are of the
opinion that it pays better in the long
run to produce medium stems rather
than special long. Consequently, medium
roses would be easier to find than any
other grade except that special length
stems are not in large request and are

are those who say prices recently have
averaged as good as last year at the
same date, while the supply has been
much larger. Sweet peas also are more
plentiful and of better quality; they
sell well, much better than violets.
Paper Whites have arrived, the first sell-
ing for as much as 10 cents! Mignon-
ette, too, has returned for the season.
Callas sell rather slowly, as do lilies,
but the supply of neither is large. Valley
equals the demand. More good calen-

Hastening the Crops.
All cut flower crops under glass were

peculiarly noticeable in chrysanthe-

in on the heels of the earlies and the
late sorts now are in crop at least a

week, and probably ten days, earlier
than usual. The reason for it can be
seen in the weather man's record for
October. The mean temperature was
62 degrees, or almost 9 degrees higher
than normal. Of the possible duration
of sunshine there was sixty-nine per
cent, or nine per cent more than normal
for the month. On the other hand, rain-
fall was only one-fourth the amount
which fell last October. There were
nineteen clear days, where a normal
October gives only eleven. The first
killing frost this year was October 21,
twelve days later than the average date.

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

ferences of the sales and factory forces.
The feature of the doings was a story of
the development of the business, by
Sales Manager Galavan. The organiza-
tion has been growing so fast that many
of its active members were not ac-
quainted with its beginnings.
The officers of the Florists' Club plan
to enhance its new reputation as a social
.organization with a dance November
12. Biisiness houses have been asked to
subscribe for tickets and give them to
their employees, thus assuring solvency
and a large attendance.
In addition to the party November 12
the committee has arranged progressive
cards, any game the ladies like to play,
for the entertainment of those who do
not dance.
N. J. Wietor has discovered a new
pompon which he thinks will take a
place in the trade ahead of any other
white variety. It was raised by H. W.
Eieman's Sons, Indianapolis, and when
exhibited for the first time, November
22, 1919, scored ninety-seven points, a
higher score than was given any other
pompon shown to the C. S. A. committees
last year. Wietor Bros, bought the en-
tire stock, together with the right to
rename, the original name of Pearl not
being satisfactory. They have this sea-
son three benches of the variety, worked
up from the original stock of 200 plants.
Next season they will plant four houses
with it and in the course of time they
will offer young stock to the trade.
Forty retailers have special window
decorations this week in competition
for the prizes offered by the Allied
Florists' Association.
At Morton Grove Poehlmann Bros.
Co. has five 250-foot benches of Yellow
Chadwick which are the pink of perfec-
tion. The first flowers were cut Novem-
ber 8.
Bassett & Washburn are putting the
firemen at Greggs Station on an 8-hour
day. Heretofore they have operated
only two shifts of twelve hours each.
H. N. Bruns reports the first ship-
ment of 1920 valley pips as on the rail
from New York.
The conservatory at Schiller's north
side store will be formally opened
November 12 and 13. The big glass
structike, which was built by the
American Greenhouse Mfg. Co., is being
filled with a great quantity of plants
from Chicago's best growers.
While William Stielow, grower, had
his ej'es focused on Jack Dempsey at
Benton Harbor on Labor day, someone
stole his Hudson Supersix, parked at the
ringside. Just as Mr. Stielow was about
to collect the insurance the other day the
car was discovered to have been aban-
doned in South Bend nearly two months
ago and was returned to him rather the
worse for its brief stay in other hands.
W. C. Florentine, well known in the
trade because of his greenhouses at
Downers Grove and because of his more
recent connection with Eandall's, has
opened an office in room 1114 Lytton
building, corner State street and Jack-
son boulevard, as sales manager for E. H.
Hoover Laboratories, Freeport, 111. They
are putting on the market a new packet
fertilizer called Plantlife, for sale in
flower and seed stores.
John A. Michal, whose store and big
show house at 7045 Stony Island avenue
are landmarks in the Jackson High-
lands section, is an optimist. He be-
lieves his section of the city will fill up
rapidly as soon as building recommences,

a variety which found its first popularity
in the Chicago district, and during his
stay he inspected a number of the local
ranges in which it is grown. November
6 he visited the establishment of Wend-
land & Keimel Co., Elmhurst, which is
unique in that it never has housed a
plant of Russell.
Among last week's visitors in the
market were the two daughters of John
Rindfleisch, the veteran Beloit, Wis.,

wed and her name then will be Mrs.
Charles Russell, just like the rose.

space to them than to the single-
stemmed varieties and find them more
profitable. Some handsome blooms of
William Turner, Yellow Turner and
other fancy varieties are seen.
Carnations are doing rather better
and the somewhat cooler weather is im-
proving their quality. Ward, Matchless
and Pink Delight continue to be the
favorites here, with Laddie supreme
among the fancies. Roses have had a
hard time of late and quotations on
them are diflScult, the motto being ' ' Sell
as best you can."
Sweet peas are abundant; in fact, I
never saw so many good peas here at
this time of the year. Sales are good.
Calendulas are fine, but overabundant.
Pansies are of splendid quality and sell
better than violets. Paper White nar-
cissi sell steadily. Small lots of astei's
and gladioli are still seen, but the pres-
ent week will see the end of them and
dahlias, cosmos and other outdoor
flowers.
A few nice gardenias are seen, while
Bouvardia Humboldtii still arrives in
small lots. A fair supply of cattleyas
continues to come in and more of the
insigne type of cypripedium, some of
the yellow type being also offered.
Nerines in small lots are also coming
in and these beautiful bulbous flowers
sell well.
There is a little better demand for
adiantum and asparagus.
Fall Horticultural Show.
While a mere ghost of many of the
autumn exhibitions held in Boston two
decades ago, when big blooms were all
the rage and competition in both plants
and cut flowers was keen, there were
nevertheless some fine exhibits at the
show held November 6 and 7. Spring
i>xhibitions have potent attractions
here, while fall shows are just the re-
verse. It was not always thus and
some day we may be able to present a
creditable fall show in Boston.
There was little competition in tlie
chrysanthemum cut bloom class and
practically none for pot plants, but some
fine material was shown just the same.
Walter II. Golby, superintendent for
Edward A. Clark, won first prize for
specimen trained white with Garza, first
for yellow with Mrs. William Diickham
and first for bronze with Ilortus Tolu-
sanus. In the cut bloom classes James
Nicol, the veteran octogenarian mum
fancier from Quincy, won for twelve
Japanese incurved with splendid flowers
of that grand old variety, Mrs. Jerome
Jones, still without a peer when well

Eric H. Wetterlow had — not for compe-
tition— some grand vases of specimen
blooms. A. B. Jenkins had the best ar-
rangement of chrysanthemums, showing
how they could be utilized in the home.
S. J. Qoddard had some fine vases of
Bichmond and Charles Eager. Mr. Gk>d-
dard showed a handsome vase of Carna-
tion Laddie, which received first for
pink. C. S. Strout showed Maine Sun-
shine in grand condition and received
a silver medal.
There was a wonderful display of win-
ter-flowering begonias of the English
type and they surpassed chrysanthe-
mums in popular favor. A magnificent
display covering several hundred square
feet of spac€ came from James Marl-
borough, superintendent for Thomas E.
Proctor. Over forty varieties were
shown and many of these were speci-
mens three to four feet across. The fol-
lowing were especially fine: Fascina-
tion, Sunrise, Altrineham Pink, Em-
press, Splendor, Ideala, Optima, Eclipse,
Vulcan, Eose Queen, Dazzler, Emily
Clibran, one of the best; Rosalind, Pink
Perfection, Apricot, Mrs. Heal and
Flambeau. This group was charmingly
arranged and well merited the gold
medal awarded.
For six specimen begonias Mr. Marl-
borough showed immense plants heavily
flowered of Clibran Pink, Emily Cli-
bran, Eclipse and Sunrise. Peter Ar-
nott, gardener for E. S. Webster, was a
close second, showing fine plants of
Optima, Mrs. Heal, Emily Clibran and
Exquisite. Eric H. Wetterlow won first
for six begonias of the pink American
commercial type with large well flow-
ered specimens of Cincinnati.
Douglas Eccleston, gardener for Al-
bert C. Burrage, staged a large group
of choice cypripediums in forty varie-
ties. Being terrestrial orchids, they
were appropriately plunged and the
group, which was of semicircular for-
mation, went to a considerable height
and was capped with large cibotiums.
Below were numerous well flowered
specimens of Cymbidium Pawelsii and
masses of such oncidiums as Forbesii
crispum and Kramerianum, and below
them were cypripedium plants, 200 in
number. Tufa stone was effectually
used among them, also lycopodium
and other trailing plants. There
were numerous plants of C. insigne San-
dersB, Ilarefield Hall, Drcadnaught,
Maudise, magnificum, Leeanum, virgi-
nale and other choice varieties. A few
other good varieties were Lord Wolmer,
Lord Wolscley, Fran Ida Brandt, tri-
umphans and Actapus. A gold medal

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

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

The fall exhibition of the Pennsyl-
vania Horticultural Society was held in
the First Regiment Armory, at Broad
and Callowhill streets, commencing
Tuesday evening, November 9. It was
the first big show the society has held
since the war and as such it was most
creditable. The armory was well filled

some with pin oak foliage and one ex-

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

with prices somewhere around $10 a
case lower than last year's high-water
mark. It seems probable that there
will be plenty of lilies for cutting next
summer after all that are needed for the
early Easter have been forced.
Paper White narcissi have become
more plentiful than seemed possible at
first. This is likely to be reflected in
late bulb sales and in the cut flower
market.
There have been great quantities of
Dutch bulbs marketed — hyacinths, tu-
lips, daffodils, etc. Despite left-overs
and auction sales, the season has been
satisfactory to the dealers. Good qual-
ity and prompt delivery had their effect.

mitted in the competition.
Charles T. Beasley & Co., of East Mil-
ton, are probably the largest growers of
pansies under glass in the country.
Thanks to the mild autumn, plants are
blooming with wonderful profusion and
not only are large quantities of flowers
coming into the Boston market, but New
York receives a good share. All pansies
are bunched in separate colors and un-
der glass they carry remarkably long
stems. Those producing specially long
stems are used for seed purposes.
Don't forget the meeting of the Gar-
deners' and Florists' Club November 16.
There will be talks by George C. Moyse
and Andrew Christensen, nomination
of officers, displays of late chrysanthe-
mums and much important business.
The National Grange P. of H. is hold-
ing its annual sessions in Boston this
week. W. N. Craig is chairman of the
decorating committee and the stage of
the Merchanics' building represents not
only a forest scene, but has fine floral
effects.
The first real frost of the season oc-
curred here November 7. As a general
rule, a killing frost comes on or about
September 20. The weather man has
certainly helped to combat the coal man
in good shape and florists are glad to
have him on their side. W. N. C.

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

season to see if larger produetion (in
the face of the publicity flowers are
getting) is not absolutely necessary. It
is true that there is another alternative,
but "breathes there a man with soul so
dead ' ' who would take advantage of it,
and that is to cut out publicity and let
the industry stand where it is today.
Why, such a procedure would be like
selling your birthright! There is just
one course for the florist to pursue. I
think it was Orover Cleveland who said,
"It's a condition we are facing, not a
theory." Meet this condition like the
men that you are. There is no doubt in
the minds of any of us that publicity
creates a demand for flowers. It is too
late this season to increase the supply,
but watch the demand this winter and
meet it as best you can, and prepare for
an increased supply next season.
Ample Supply Only Bemedy.
The tone of this article may convey
the impression that, if there is an ab-
normal demand this winter, it might be
a good thing to slow down on publicity.
This is the very time when you want to
increase it. Let me cite an instance.
During the late war, when the govern-
ment took over the entire output of
Bull Durham smoking tobacco and not
a bag of it could be obtained in this
country, the publicity bureau of the to-
bacco company worked overtime keep-
ing it before the public. Had they closed
down this department of their business,

A Tearing Thanksgiving
AS TOLD BY JIMMY
The Hybeinian Hybrid
Jimmy got confidential the other day about his first pair of
pants, which he^was allowed to wear for the first time on
a Thanksgiving Day.
His mother cautioned'him not to go out and play in them,
but he "forgot," and in a game of hide-and-seek caught
those wonderful pants on a nail and tore them badly. One
of the girls, taking pity on Jimmy, sewed up the tear as best
she could, with Jimmy in the rants.
It was so good a job that his mother never noticed it until
at night when he came to take them off; it developed that
pants and underwear were sewed together.
Jimmy said his mother promptly gave him something
hotter than Jamaica ginger, administered with a slipper
properly placed.
Jimmy said that ended his "trying to get away with
things;" that ever since if he is in wrong he makes a clean
breast of it. Have a notion that's one of the reasons why
so many like to have him wait on them .
Whenever I hear of an F. T. D. member having "substi-
tuted" stock and tried to get away with it without saying
a word, can't help but wish he had torn his first pair of
pants and learned Jimmy's lesson early in life.

it would have been a case of beginning
all over, and years of hard work would
have been lost. As it was, as soon as
they had been released by the govern-
ment they were ready to go on the mar-
ket, practically where they had left off.
Take the present condition of the
flower markets all over the country, with
weather conditions as they are. In many
of them outdoor stock is still to con-
tend with and advance and midseason

upon the iiiarkot; still there is no great
glut reported anj'whcre. There can be
only one reason for this. That is in-
creased deniand. Now, there is not one
of us who does not realize that this
iiirreased supply can last but a short
time and the supi)ly will be back to
normal. Then, how about the demand
that has been taking care of an abnor-
mal supply? The problem is a great
one; it is up to the florists to study it
and solve it. Tate.

The Market.
('(iiiditions at the varinus wholesale
markets were si)lendid all last week,
with all seasonable flowers iu abun-
dance, and the retailer had no trouble
ill having his orders filled. The chrys-
anthemum, of course, was the ])rineii)al
flower in demand. Some regular ])rize-
winners were noticed among them, in-
cluding blooms of Charles Eager, Mari-
gold, Koilev, A])]ileton, Chieft;iiu and
Honnatt'on, as wtdl as ."in excellent as-
sortment of pomjions, which have had a
heavy demand. T'^aton and Chadwick,
both yellow and white, are looked for
this week. The toj) ju'icc last week was
$3 per dozen. The great demand for
mums had a depressing effect on other
stock.
Roses are in large supply and excel-
lent stock is coming to this market
daily. Russell and Premier are in high
color and all fancy grades sell W(>1!.
Ophelia and jMilady and White Killav-
ncy were more ])lentiful than at any
time since the season opened. Carna-
tions are coming in, the sup]ily being
greater than the demand. Kxhihition
varieties, such as Nebraska and Match-
less, jsell at $t iicr hundred. Other stock
coming in daily is valley, Kaster lilies,
sweet jieas, calendulas and snajidragons.
I'ajier Whites have made their first a]i-
jieaiance and the demand cleaned them
out daily.
There has been a heavy deniand all
the wrrk for ]ilunu)sus, adiaMtum,
siiiilax. uahix and flat ferns.
Various Notes.
The St. Louis County Growers' Asso-
ciation held its regular monthly iiaM'ting
at Kirkwood at the greenhouses of W.
A. Rowc. The meeting was called to or-
der by President Martin I'de. Tlie
attendance was large and a great deal
of important business was disiiosed of.
As this association liolds charter No. 2
in the National Flower Growers' Asso-
ciation, a reorganization so as to con-
form with the national body in const i-
tuion and by-laws was discussed and it
was decided to call a s]iecial meeting
of growers in and aroun(i St. Louis. A
committee was appointed to arrange for
the meeting at one of the downtown
liotels the latter part of the month.
J. F. Ammann, the national secretary,
will be the ])rincij)al s])eaker. It was
also decided that, until a suitable meet-
ing jilace could be secured, tiie associa-
tion would meet monthly at the estab-
lishment of W. A. Kowe, at Kirkwood.

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

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

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

found that the florists veould be "set

bration.
The boys are getting up a party to
go over to Washington to the exhibition
of tlio Clirysanthcmum Society of
America and the Washington Club's
banquet. They propose to keep on
"Saying It veith Flowers." A car has
been chartered on the electric line. This
will be decorated for tlie occasion and
it is expected that about fifty will be
in the party. The arrangements are in
the hands of William McKissick, of the
Leo Nicssen Co.
There were several Halloween win-
dows which attracted a great deal of
attention. Mary .Tohnston had one that
would answer as well for a harvest home
occasion. Eobert Johnston had all of
the products of the farm most taste-
fully arranged, from the shock of corn
down. Robert L. Graham, Jr., in the
uptown store, featured pumpkins, ac-
companied by an alternating electric
service, which gave his window the de-

At .John Cook's one of the finest
combinations I have seen in a long time
was a casket cross made for ox-Postmas-
ter-Gencral Garry's funeral. The cross
was the full length of the casket and
twelve inches wide, made of wliite roses,
lioiivardia Ilumholdtii and adiantum.
Tt certainly made a fine funeriil offer-
ing. He lias a window of yellow mums,
as fine specimen flowers as I have ever
seen.
Across the street at William ITalli-
day's, Miss Groves had an equally fine
window, the only difference being that
slie featured white.

nil], as usual, up to her eyes in funeral
work. ^Irs. Hill, who is a close ob-
server of conditions in the florists' busi-
ness, says she has never seen a season
open under more favorable circum-
stances.
Philip B. Welsh, as usual with him,
is sending in some of the finest Turners
seen on the market.
James Hamilton, while he is holding
his roses back all he can, has the promise
of the finest crop in his history. The
judge is trying out Crusader, Pilgrim
and Madame Butterfly and is becoming
more enthusiastic over these new ones
each day.

Tlic ]iresideiit ial election, coiiihiiied
with iimisually warm weatlicr for this
time of the year, made its mark on busi-
ness conditions. In tlie first place the
election, the most vital issue, interfered
with social functions; secondly, there
has been such a mass of outdoor flowers
arriving, because of the lack of a kill-
ing frost, and the warm sunshine and
clear days liavc brought along the in-
door stock so rapidly, that growers are
beginning to wonder where the chrys-
anthemums will come from for Thanks-
giving. Siicli are the conditions in and
around Rochester. It has been a most
umisual season.

Chrysanthemums are being sold at
low prices in order to clear. There is a
large quantity of pompons, which move
fairly well. In roses the supply is large
and stock in general is good. Ophelia,
Sunburst, Ward, Columbia, Premier,
Hadley, Hoosier Beauty, Cecile Brunner
and the Killarneys all move fairly well,
but at figures lower than should exist
at this season. Good pink snapdragon
is seen in some of the stores. There is a
heavy supply of carnations. They do
not move as readily as they should.
Paper White narcissi are here, but there
is little demand for them. Violets have
practically no sale as yet, only a few oc-
casional bunches going for funeral work.
There are a few good lilies, but these
move quickly. Orchids are not over-
plentiful, but the supply meets all de-
mauds. Valley is too expensive for the
aveiage buyer and is not used except on
special occasions. Green goods of all
kinds are plentiful and of good quality.
Rochester Mum Show.
P^or the last few years it has not been
considered advisable to hold a chrysan-
themum show in this city, but at the
monthly meeting of the Rochester Flo-
rists' Association, held two weeks ago
at the Osborn House, the project was
proposed and received with a great deal
of enthusiasm. The outcome was a
good-sized show, held in the ballroom of
the Osborn House Friday, November 5,
from noon until 10:30 p. m. The at-
tendance was good and the event was
greatly appreciated by all flower lovers.
No admission was charged.
Many sorts of flowers were exhibited,
but a specialty was made of mums. Ex-
cellent specimen blooms of many of the
latest varieties were exhibited by pri-
vate growers. Similar entries were
made from the greenhouses in the
Rochester parks. Among the local flo-
rists and growers who exhibited were
George B. Hart, H. E. Wilson, Fred C.

Various Notes.
Joseph H. Werdein, who several
years ago was one of the sales force of
H. E. Wilson, has returned to his former
position.
Last week was national apple week
and practically every store on Main
street had elaborate displays, but none
better than those shown by the florists,
who artistically combined vases and
baskets of choice flowers with some of
the largest and most luscious apples
grown in and around Rochester. J. B.
Keller Sons' display was unique. A
large gilt frame enclosed a box eighteen

legitimate florists pay. It is not known
just when the tax will be imposed.
There is considerable public discussion
on both sides, some persons maintaining
they should not be compelled to pay the
license tax, while others assert that
since these peddlers are competitors of
the recognized florists for the public
trade, "wliat is sauce for the goose is
sauce for the gander."
DENVER, COLO.
The Market.
Business was good during the week
ending November 6, the stores reporting
a fairly busy week. There has been
considerable funeral work and prices
are practically unchanged. Chrysanthe-
mums are not so plentiful, the smaller
varieties being about gone and the
later ones not having yet arrived in
quantity. In roses, medium grades are
a little scarce. Carnations are coming
in more heavily all the time, but con-
tinue to move well. Sweet peas are get-
ting bettor in quality. A few Easter
lilies and violets complete the list.
Shipping has been excellent.
Various Notes.
From the number of bulbs received
this fall it looks as though there might
be some dilliculty in disposing of them
next spring.
John P^nisbacli left last week for Los
Angeles. Mr. Emsbach was a pioneer in
tlie trade in this city, having followed
the business for thirty-five years. He
was foreman of the Elitch-Long Green-
houses for eighteen years, from whose
employ he went into business for liim-
self on West Twenty-ninth avenue.
Later he turned the business over to his
son, Eussell. lie has recently been with
Fred Maler.
Mr. Haynes, the new representative
of the A. L. Kandall Co., Chicago, for
this section, is making this city his
headquarters.
Cliarles Meyer extends an invitation

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

esting and attracted a great deal of at-
tention.
The Florists' Club held its regular
meeting Thursday night, November 4,
and there was a large attendance. It
was flower show night and many of tiie
florists brought a display of high-priced
flowers and plants. The entertainment
committee has arranged for a theater
party in December. P.
HOW THEY WERE NAMED.
Although the popular name clings to
the flower, in most cases the bloom is
high born and the name is derived from
the Latin, Greek or French.
Pansy derives its name frota the
French, pensees, meaning thoughts.
Carnation, which superseded the old
name gilliflower, is taken from the Latin
word caro, meaning flesh.
Primrose, because of its early bloom-
ing, is styled the first rose and derives
the prefix, prim, from the Latin prima
(rosa).
Tansy is from the Greek and signifies
immortality. The word is derived from
the Greek athanasia, deathlessness.
Geranium can also be traced back to

Peach goes back to the Latins, who
called it perssuni. We interpret it as
Persian apple.
Bhubarb has an ancient title and i.s
corrupted from Rha barberum. Rha was
the old name of the river Volga, on
the banks of which the plant grew.
TROUBLE WITH CYCLAMENS.
I have some cyclamens in 4-iiicli and
5-inch pots. The plants stood the warm
weather, but during the last six weeks
there has been considerable rain and
some cold nights and they are not
doing well. Fine, large plants in 5-inch
pots wilt and in two days turn rotten
at the root.
During the day my house was warm
and I spraj'ed the plants twice a day
and dampened the walks. The soil was
light. My mixture was five barrows
of soil, one of well rotted manure, ;i
7-inch pot of horn shavings and enough
sand to keep the soil from packing.
Some of the foliage has turned yello^v
and dried up, although the root is solid
and in a short time makes new foliage,
though not so strong as the first.
H. L. U.— Kan.
You are perhaps keeping your cyc-
lamens too wet at the root. You
should discontinue all syringing from
now on. Give the plants a light bench
and no shade. Scratch tlie surface soil

Pack the roots on shelves in a shed
or cellar which is dry and just excludes
frost. A potato cellar is ideal. An-
other good plan is to wrap each root
in a sheet of newspaper and pack away
in barrels. Divisions for one 's own use

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

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

will become a more exact science in this

ing in have been grown under cheese-
cloth, but most of the crop beginning to
reach the market is from greenhouses,
the stock having been planted outside
and transplanted in the fall. This in-
volves considerable outlay for labor,
which is 80 high now that the growers
have been going into roses, which here
are nearly all grown on solid beds, in-
stead of on raised benches, as in eastern
greenhouses. Once planted, with care-
ful cultivation and proper attention, the
roses remain planted for years, which
means a great saving in labor compared
with the growing of greenhouse carna-
tions."

Flower & Supply Co. These are in sets
of six — four leaves, one blossom and one
seed pod — and are intended for orna-
mental and decorative purposes. There
is much demand for them from art stores
and designers of baskets containing odd
and unusual color effects.
Domoto Bros, are cutting their roses
and report an exceptionally fine crop,
especially of Eussell and Ophelia. M.
Domoto said: "Of our new roses,
Madame Butterfly is much in demand in
this market at present. I think it will
soon take the place of Ophelia, for it is
larger and of a deeper, richer color."
Enomoto & Co. have laid in a large
stock of Chinese lily bulbs, in anticipa-
tion of an exceptionally busy Christmas
season. Of these flowers, which bloom
so abundantly in water for some grow-
ers and refuse a single bloom to others,
Mr. Enomoto says, "The secret of pro-
ducing flowers is to slit the outer brown
covering, as the bulb breaks apart and
expands. If the bulb is too tightly com-
pressed by the outer casing in the
j)rocess of expansion, there will be no
flowers."
The Growers' Cut Flower Co. special-
izes in pansies and its crop is now com-
ing into the market in good shape.
Pelicano, Eossi & Co. have had an un-
usual amount of funeral work during
the last week.
V. L. Podesta, of Podesta & Baldocchi,
is to have a great home-coming when he
arrives from Italy, about December 15.
He leaves about the middle of Novem-
ber and will make the trip without
haste.
M. McLaughlin, of Joseph's, is the
proud father of a baby girl.
The Misses Hannon store anticipates
an unusually busy Thanksgiving. A
number of orders for Thanksgiving
decorations have come in from clubs.
Flowers for a smart society wedding
at the Fairmount hotel and an unusual
number of funerals have kept the Mac-
Rorie-McLaren Co. busy.
The Art Floral Co. had good business
during election week.
Mrs. R. E. Darbee has had an un-
usual amount of funeral work.
The elaborate decorations at the Kut-
ner-Block wedding were widely dis-
cussed last week. Albert Stein designed
and executed the decorative scheme,
which transformed the Italian ballroom
of the St. Francis hotel, where the ban-
quet took place, into a resemblance of
an Alma-Tadema picture of Roman days.
H. Hayashi & Co., of Oakland, are
specializing in house plants for the holi-

Last week was generally satisfactory,

was really the most notable happening.
There has been a good run of stock
shown here, with enough decorative and
funeral work to prevent any losses
and a good general business.

almost continuous sunshine and the color
of the roses has improved. Premier,
Eussell and Butterfly were also offered,
but there has been a drop in the cut of
Cecile Brunner. Columbia is in lighter
supply, but plentiful enough to fill
orders.
Mums have become the leading flowers
of the market and local growers have
increased their cuts materially. Large
quantities of California mums are still
being received and from present indica-
tions there will be a heavy holiday de-
mand.
The run on local violas is being short-
ened and orders for California violet
shipments were increased during the last
week by most houses. The cut of orchids
is light, but ample for trade needs, with
lilies still scarce. There is a suflScient
stock of gardenias. Bouvardias are an
attractive filler on corsage orders. The
supply of carnations has shown improve-
ment, both as to quality and quantity.
Various Notes.
Sales of bulbs, especially the winter-
flowering sort, are being pushed by a
number of the retail shops with good
results. Those shops offering stock for
spring planting have also been able to
report a steady sale.
The Burns Floral Co. has been pur-
chased by Sylvester Muecci, who has
until recently been employed by Eosaia
Bros., Bert Linegar, and for a number
of years by Miss Anna Burns. The new
owner has assumed charge of the store,
while Miss Burns, the seller, will prob-
ably spend the winter in California.
The firm name will be continued.

AHEBICAN SEED TBADE ASSOCIATION.
President, H. G. Hastings, Atlanta, Ga.; sec-
retary-treasurer, C. B. Kendel, Cleveland, O.
C. D. Coventry, of the W. W. Barnard
Co., Cliicago, is on a western trip.
Buyers of Dutch bulbs are holding off
on their orders to see if prices are not
lower later.
George Reeve, Chicago, says onion sets
are worth $2 a bushel — but at present it
is necessary to sell them for less; quite
a good deal less.
It is diflScult to figure how the packets
can be cheaper, so large a part of their
cost is "overhead," but they can be
fatter next season.
In an address to bankers recently
Secretary of Agriculture Meredith de-
nounced the "free seed gag," as he
called it, saying "it never got one vote
for anybody."
There are indications that the yield of
onion sets in the Chicago district must
have been even better than supposed —
at least, certain growers who had sold
their crops under contract at $1.25 per
bushel are making unexpectedly heavy
deliveries for their acreage.
The steamer Rotterdam, which ar-
rived at New York from Rotterdam, Oc-
tober 31, brought the season's largest
shipment of seeds. On board, consigned
chiefly to forwarding houses on the mani-
fest, were 447 bags of garden seed, fifty
of cabbage seed, 1,650 of poppy seed and
2,600 of sugar beet seed.
More Holland bulbs arrive with each
steamer from Rotterdam. November 4
the A. F. Luckenbach arrived at New
York with five cases for the A. L. Randall
Co., Chicago, and one each for F. Rynvcld
& Son and Maltus & Ware. There wore
also on board seventy-four bags of garden
seed for F. Rynveld & Son.
Officers of the Wholesale Grass Seed
Dealers ' Association are : President, Wm.
G. Scarlett, Baltimore, Md.; vice-presi-
dent, J. Charles McCullough, Cincinnati,
O. ; secretary -treasurer, Clarence K.
Jones, 110 South street, Baltimore, Md.;
counsel, Curtis Nye Smith, Boston. The
next annual meeting is in June, 1921.
■ During the last two months little move-
mer.t of timothy, redtop, Kentucky blue-
grass, orchard grass and meadow fescue
seed from the growers' hands has taken
place. Prices have declined rather steadily
since the harvest of several of these seeds,
but seedsmen are reluctant to buy at
present prices, which, however, seem low

to the growers. The quality of the 1920
crop of these grass seeds compares well
with normal and with last year.

A voluntary petition in bankruptcy
was filed in the Federal court November
3 by the Missouri Seed Co., 1426 St.
Louis avenue, Kansas City, Mo. The
company set forth that its debts to
banks, seed companies and other cor-
porations amount to $138,949 and its

BOLOIANO CBEDITOBS TO MEET.
Willis E. Myers, referee in bank-
ruptcy, Baltimore, Md., has announced
that a meeting of the creditors of J. Bol-
giano & Son, adjudicated bankrupt Oc-
tober 27, will be held November 19 at
3 p. m. in the United States District
court room, in the postoffice building,
when the creditors may prove their
claims, appoint a trustee, examine the
bankrupt and transact any other neces-
sary business. It is further stated that
creditors, to participate in the selection
of trustee, must file their claims, prop-
erly proved, not later than 3 p. m. No-
vember 19. The schedule of assets of
Charles J. Bolgiano and J. Bolgiano &
Son totals $1,347,247.28.
VICES HAVE GOOD CROPS.
In spite of the driest June and July
on record at Eochestcr, N. Y., James
Vick's Sons report a good crop of aster
seed. Some of the early varieties suf-
fered severely, but the main crop and
late varieties did remarkably well under
the circumstances and made a fine show-
ing this fall. Other flower seeds have
turned out well, also. Crops of sweet
corn are up to the average yield per
acre and the firm believes that sugar or
pie pumpkin, Mammoth Jumbo pump-
kin, Chicago Warted Hubbard squash
and Golden Hubbard squash are all 100
per cent crops.

tion of orders taken, caused by circum-
stances over which we have no control,"
is not invalid as lacking obligation on
the part of the seller to deliver. So
holds the Massachusetts Supreme Judi-
cial court in a late case. Construing
such a provision, the court says:
"It means that performance of the
agreement by the sellers was not left
optional with them, but was an absolute
binding obligation to make deliveries to
the best of their ability at the time
specified in the agreement unless they
were prevented from making such deliv-
eries by causes for which the sellers
were not responsible and over which
they had no control." S.

MODIFY MICHIGAN QUARANTINE.
The following notice has been sent out
by L. R. Taft, state inspector of nurs-
eries and orchards for Michigan:
Reports reaching this office from areas in-
fested with the white pine blister rust indicate
that It is still spreading in certain sections in
New England, New York, Wisconsin and Mln-
■esota, as well as in the province of Ontario,
Canada.
However, It would appear that the leading
nursery centers In the state of New York, and
especially those where the growing of currant
plants is extensively carried on, are now prac-
tically free from this disease, and notice Is
hereby given that the Michigan quarantine. No.
1, April, 1918, Is modified to permit the bring-
ing Into Michigan of red and wlilte currant
plants that have been grown in or near Fredonla,
Rochester, Geneva, Newark and Dansviile, N. Y.,
provided they are accompanied by a state or
tedpral certificate of Inspection.
The quarantine against 5-leaved pines and
black currants is still in force, and red and
white currants may not be brought into Michi-
gan from Now England, New York (the above-
mentioned sections excepted), Wisconsin or Min-
aeaota without a special permit.

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

When there will be another chance to get hybridizing stock like
this, nobody kuOws. The fame of Mr. Moore as an expert in selecting
hybridizing material, is your ample guarantee that every item list«d
is, in these days of embargoes, indeed a rich find.
There is not a cull among them, as Mr. Moore always discarded
everything he did not consider up to his high standards.

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

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

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

"The customer's interest flrst"-is the basis of the KROESCHELL standard. This
principle makes the KROESCHELL Policy the most liberal of all in the Green-
house Boiler business. The great variety of boilers that we make places us in a
commanding position. It is the KROESCHELL principle to supply only the type
of boiler best suited for the conditions. For this reason we always furnish the

The KROESCHELL has proven its worth in many of the large establishments in

competition with all other types of boilers. Its efficiency and capacity are com-

KROESCHELL BOILERS have no bulky, soot accumu-

trouble indispensable to cleaning boilers with compli-
cated and tortuous back and forth passages.
The superiority of our boilers has resulted in the removal and abolishment of
hundreds of cast iron sectional boilers— in every instance KROESCHELL BOILERS
give more beat with the same piping with less fuel.

Help Save the "White
Coal of Industry"
The boiling hot water resulting from condensation in
your steam lines is worth money. You have paid for
it in terms of coal. It contains valuable heat units.
It is the "White Coal of Industry"— it should not
be wasted.
And it need not be wasted. The Morehead Back-to-
Boiler System will save it for you by returning it to
the boiler at temperatures as high as 400 degrees
Fahrenheit. It reduces coal consumption an average
of 20%. At the same time your steam will be
"drier" and more efficient; your production speeded
up and profits increased.

house is 18x75 feet, with three feet of
concrete and thirty inches of glass in the
sides, and ten feet to the ridge.
I intend to grow a general line of
potted plants for the retail trade. We
have a temperature sometimes as low as
10 degrees below zero. I want a boiler
large enough so that I can add a propa-
gating house, 10x20 feet. A. R. — Ih.
To heat the residence, the office and
the three greenhouses, about 2,000
square feet of radiation will be re-
quired and to carry it with economy I
advise the use of a boiler rated at 2,500
square feet, or slightly more.
The residence will require about 350
square feet, the office 150 feet, the
smaller greenhouse 700 feet and the
larger one 750 square feet, for 60 de-
grees. These figures may be reduced
about one-fourth if a temperature of 50
degrees will answer.
To heat the greenhouses to 60 degrees,
you should use three 2%-inch flow pipes
and nine 2-inch returns. In case 50 de-
grees will suffice in zero weather, only
six returns will be needed. In the
propagating house use one 2%-inch flow
pipe and five 2-inch returns.

to heat to 60 degrees. Please inform me

mains and returns, and what arrange-

NEWARK, N. J.
The Market.
Frosts have killed most of the out-
door flowers, thereby increasing the de-
mand for greenhouse blooms. While
there is a fair deinaiid for flowers now,
the winter season for florists has not yet
begun.
The scarcity of coal, plus the diffi-
culty of securing it, has a tendency to
reduce the amount of cultivation under
glass. The decrease for this reason,
however, will not be large.

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

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

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

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

Will Save You Fuel and
Keep Your Greenhouse ^^ TIGHT' ^
VITAPLASTIC GLAZING COMPOUND is a gum and asbestos product thatfclings
to the side bar as well as the glass and forms a perfect union, remaining in a plastic con-
dition,'never getting any harder than tough rubber.
VITAPLASTIC expands and contracts with the expansion and contraction of 'your
greenhouse, in this way sealing your greenhouse and not permitting the heat to evaporate,
and also prevents the melting snow from seeping in through loose lights.
Secure Gratis our AUTOMATIC GLAZING MACHINE, which is a big money and
labor saver. Let us tell you how it works.

ELECTION DAY CIiEARS MUMS.
A record sale >ii imims was the result
of a little wide-awake advertising on
the part of the Excelsior Greenhouses,
Excelsior Springs, Mo. The town in
which they are located happens to be
much interested in political matters.
The day before election thi.-^ firm started
a publicity campaign, persuading the
populace that if they were for Cox they
should wear a white rnuni and if for
Harding, a yellow mum. The slo_gan
was, "Show vour ''olora on election
day."
They did. J^.vi'elsior Springs holds
loyal followers of both parties and the
wearing of the flowers gave everyone
an excellent chance to display his loy-
alty. Every man who wore no mum
in his buttonhole was asked by jesters
if he was ashamed to show his colors.
It followed that nearly every man wore
a mum, and the direct result to the
originators of the idea was that Excel-
sior Greenhouses completely sold out
their large stock of mums

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

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

50-foot 8-inch House
This house being sort of a mid-width between
the narrow and the wide ones, it has been
extensively adopted.
It is about as wide as it is safe to build, without
trussing the rafter between the center columns
and side walks.
The center space between columns is 27 feet 8
inches.
Between columns and posts, 11 feet 6 inches.
The usual bench arrangement in a house of this
width is 8 benches, each 4 feet 5 inches wide.
The sides are 7 feet high.
The height to ridge, 19 feet 5> inches.

Lily Growers
A Word to the Wise is Sufficient
Fresh Giganteums are scarce, owing to very short
crop — consequently there will be little or no cold
storage stock for 1921. Be one of the wise ones, have
Lilies when your neighbors have none, by placing part
of the fresh stock in storage and growing cold storage
stock for the early Easter.

CYCLAMEN
Why cyclamen purchased from us will give
entire satisfaction and make you the most money:
Our Shipping Facilities: , — ^
Exceptional facilities for southern and southwest points.
Express Office in our packing room insures less rough handling.
Main lines New York Central Lines and Pennsylvania for east and
west shipments, and C. & E. I. and Illinois Central for north and
south shipments.
Plants NoMT Coming Into Bloom Strong.
Large stock to select from; first come, first choice.
The most discriminating buyers are inspecting, buy-
ing our stock and giving us repeat orders.
(We have the varieties and the quality.)
NO PACKING CHARGE.
What our customers say about our quality and packing:
From North Carolina:
"It is with great pleasure and satisfaction to report to you that the shipment of cyclamen reached me in first-
class condition. I give you full credit for the way you packed the shipment. That's the way to pack plants,
and not just slap them in like so many shippers are doing nowadays. Everyone seems to be mighty anxious to
sell goods and get the money, but don't give a rap how goods reach the buyer. Enclosed find check for
additional order."
From Arizona:
"Dupl'cate our order of the 24th; did not think shipment could be made this far."
"Received 400 cyclamen from the east and they can't touch yours. "
"Cyclamen arrived; well pleased with quality and they were packed fine."
"Enclosed find check for $300.00; eyes arrived in fine shape and we are well pleased with the stock."
Not the cheapest that are offered, because quality stock cannot be
had cheap. Nor the highest prices, because we have a large quan-
tity and can afford to share profits with you; just the best that
can be had for the money.

^|L "T* the florist a greater abuu-
^j^L I (lance of material with
r I /^U w h i c h to make artistic
'^^ ^ and attention-arresting
disjilays. The resources at
hand are so large and full
of ()])i)ortunity for the in-
genious decorator that
one wonders why more use
not made. Many florists
accomjilisli striking results at this time
of year, both in beautilication of their
store •windows and in attracting tran-
sient trade. When the advent of cold
weather has put an end to garden flow-
ers the time is auspicious for the ret;iiler
to draw the public's notice to the green-
house jiroduct. Though he may do so in
other ways as well, he is overlooking one
of his best mediums if he neglects his
show window.
Advertising men tell us that illust
lions rei'nforce reading
copy and are often, of
more importance t h a n
the latter in carrying a
selling message. We all
of us admit the force of
this assertion and recog-
nize its truth froin our
own ex])eriencc. Since
that is the case, the dis-
play window, which is
one ste]i, at least, better
t h a n illustration, i>re-
senting the real jiroduct,
instead of its picture, to
the eye, should be of
even greater advertising
vain e. And .it is, as
those florists who h a v e
d e vote d thought and
efl'ort to this bramdi ol'
their jiublicity — for-as
such it should be consid-
ered— will bear witness.
Value Demonstrated.
It is not easy to count
returns in dtdlars and
cents from the invest-
ment of employees 'time,
m o n e y for accessories
and stock from the ice-
box which is put into a
window disjilay. IJut it
has been f r e q u e n 1 1 y
demonstrated that it has
a decide d ability to
bring b u y e r s into the
store. Moreover, those
florists who have once
undertaken the effort
and expense necessary to
stage pretentious dis-
jilays in their windows in no case ha\e
discontinued such elTort ;ind exjicnse
from a conclusion tiiat they are un-
profitable. Katlier have they progressed
to more and more elaborate and ambi
tious (uitlays in this direction. This
fact should be enough to persuade any
backward individual florist of the wis-
dom of utilizing his store window as a
trade-getter. Ami at this time of vear
for
urji
this
■ to-
the many materials at hand
jiurpose should be a |>arti<'ulai
ward such action on his jiart.
Season Offers Aid.
The harvest season brings a generous
variety of outdoor aicjs to window dress-
ing, while the arrival of c(dd weather
incri'ases the contribution, in cjualify
and quantity, of the greenhouses. Chief
among the latter, oi^ course, are chrys-
anthemums, whose wide range of colors
makes them jiarticularly valuable for
this kill. I (if work. After the small
flowers of summer, the big exhibition
blooms of the queen of autumn are
themselves enough to draw many jiass-
ers' gaze. Tiu' colors of both these and
the smaller singles and pompons afford
sjilen<lid ojiportunity for artistic effects.
Hut there is much more than this
partii'ular flower to lieautify the show
window and draw notice to the florist's
wares. The vivid foliage of fall may be
used, as it has often been, to strikingly
jiicturesque effect. In late years this
material has found an increasingly im-
portant place among the florist's re-
sources for various sorts of decorating.
The range of natural tones has been
augmented for the trade's use by pre-
jiared material, which, of course, is avail-
able at other seasons also. In many
ways both natural and prepared foliages
aid the decorator, and may be jiut to
use in widely \arious manners in the
window. From outdoors
at this time also come
the corn shocks and
luimjikins that have as-
^i^tt'd in filling many a
florist's window for har-
\i'st season, Halloween
a n d Thanksgiving dis-
jilays.
But more imjiortant
are the many resources
in the florist's own stock
That afford t h e finest
sort of disjilays. Chrys-
anthemums have been
noted. A basket of big

ARMISTICE DAY IN BOSTON.
Returned Soldiers Remembered.
Boston florists are showing the way
to cieate a demand for llowers Noveni-
lier 11. They beg;in hist year by setting
the public a good exam]ile — giving tiow-
era away to the wouiuIimI soldiers and
sailors in Boston's 112.") hosiutals. They
showed their future eustomers wliiit
Armistice day should stand for.
I'resident Henry Penn, .Secretary K.
S. (iorney, Financial-secretary Frank
Ivlgar and Treasurer William Stickler,
of the Ketail Florists' Association
of l^oston, this year arranged with the
growers for ipiantities of blooms of all
the autumn varieties. Xo\enil)er 11,
iL'.j boxes, each containing from 400 to
()(i() llowers, were jiacked in thirty auto-
mobiles, loaned by the llorists for mak-
ing the deliveries.
The cars in line, decorated with ]ien-
nants, then formi^l ;i ]irocession which
jiaraded tlnauigh streets of the Hub, dis-
banding at Copley s(|uare to go their
se]iarate ways to tlio various hospitals.
It was a successful demonstration, and
the results of its yearly repetition can
already be seen.
Possibilities of Big Day.
F. S. (iorney, secretary of the associa-
tion, expresses his o[iinion of the ])0S3i-
bilities for the trade in the future de-
veloiunent of Armistice day as follows:
"There is no reason why we cannot
have another llower holiday on Armis-
tice day, by advertising collectively,
urging grave d( rations and memorial
services, sending llowers to the sick sol-
diers and also by inducing everybody to
wear a flower.
"I would suggest that the women
wear a ycdlow chrysanlhemum and the
men a yidlow poni]ion, as at this season

Memorial day is so much observed in

advantage of the sentiment of the jxmi-

Civil war veterans. I l)elieve that in
a few years Armistice day will be as
great a ll<'wer holiday as Alemorial day,
if the florists do their duty.

Lime will not hurt the lil\- bulbs and
will help to keeji worms away. In re-
[danting the lilies, lay them in a little
cushion of sharp sand and scatter this
sand over them to fill the vacant spaces
between the scales. Proltably the cause
of the rot was that the ground was too

])osed to all sorts of conditions into a
liouso of healthy stock? Who can tell
what pests we are importing into our
houses and the amount of trouble they
will cause? Yet, in nine cases out of
ten, it is because the ])lant is sick and
not presentable in the house that it is
sent to the florist, with tlie idea that in
a few months it will be returned a bet
ter and finer s]iecimen. I have seen
plants sent to a florist that were just
co\-ei-e(l with scale and me.aly bui;. The
lirst thinji; the florist was r('(|uired to do
for his own ]irotectinn was to clean
them. Xow, the jioint I wish to impress
is this: You are caring for a sick plant;

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

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

VIOLET GROWER ADVERTISES.
Not often do flower growers make use
of printers' ink to sell their blooms.
Usually they are content with estab-
lished connections with wholesale
houses in the urban centers for their
outlet. Only a few find occasion to
break into print to sell their stock, most
frequently in the trade press, and still
fewer resort to direct mail methods.
From such a class of nonadvertisers
one would therefore not expect the same
effectiveness, when one of them docs
indulge in {tublicity, as from the other
branches of tlic trade more experienced
in that field. Nevertheless, Elmer
Coon, head of the Rhinebeck Floral Co.,
at Ehinebeck, N. Y., has sent out a good
])iece of direct-mail advertising in
search of orders for double violets for
this season. It is in the form of a single
large sheet, 17x18 inches, which folds
conveniently to fit a No. 10 envelope.
The statement of prices, the presenta-
tion of sales arguments and the detach-
able order blank in one corner all have
been prepared to hit the nail on the
head and get the recipient's order with
tlie greatest ease. Clearness and sim-
jilicity mark the entire copy.
Mr. Coon has been growing violets at
Rhinebeck for nearly twenty years.
Tliat he has won a place for himself in
that community is attested by the fact
that he is president of the board of edu-
cation and a director of the local sav-
ings bank.
Mr. Coon's advertising sense is evi-
dent from the opening of his circulars,
calling attention to Penn the Florist's
featuring of violets. This reads: "Do
you know that real fresh violets are
your biggest builders of reputation?
What does Penn of Boston feature
throughout the year? Isn't it 'Strictly
Fresh Violets'? Read below how you
can do the .same thing."
MUMS CHANGE COLOR.
I noticed an article in The Review
for October 28 under the heading "Ever
Hear of This?" wliich complained that
bronze mums were turning white. Last
spring I ordered some Yellow King Hum-
bert cannas for some customers and I
ha<l about twelve left over, which I
planted. They came up in fine style,
but some had particolored green and
red leaves; one root jiroduced two stalks,
one red and one green; one stalk bore
two llower heads, one red and one yel-
low, and some of the others had part
of the flower red and part yellow. These
.olors were not blotched, but solid or
shailed. I ;nn going to save all the roots
for next year. IL W. Peterson.
THE BEST CUCUMBER.
What variety of cucumber is the most
prolit.ible to t'orce in a greenhouse and
\\hell slioulil the erop be started? Anv
iiiforniat ion you can give us on this sub-
ject will be erc-itly ;ij)preciated.

^ SECRETARY OF SIX <^
v;r?«^ir^i'vsv;:^rt«tir?wr«tir«flrrsflr«virirsvirir»-y*>rtr/^
MBITF^D with an idea and
gifted witli genius for the
management of business
by modern methods, Paul
K. Weiss, of Maywdod, 111.,
has become known far and
near as the trade's great-
est little secretary. Jok-
ingly referred to by his
friends as the "Syndi-
cate," he includes in his secretarial
duties record-keeping for four green-
house corporations, of which he also is
the directing head, a coal company and
a big wholesale cut flower house.
No doubt other florists are familiar
with the law of diminishing return,
mostly, i)('rli:i])s, with tlie iiiaiiifi'statinii
rather tlian the theory; hut Mr. Weiss
is probably the only grower who has
thought out and apjilied a definite
method of defeating the operation of
this well known rule of economics.
For the benefit of tho.se whose student
days are in the distant i)ast, here is the
law of diminishing return as stated liy
Webster: "The observed fact or law
that in any given stage of the arts an
increase of labor or capital applied be-
yond a certain point in the cultivation
of land causes a less than proportionate
increase in the produce raised from a
given area." Watching the operation
of this law in the greenhouse business,
Mr. Weiss came to the conclusion that
there comes a time at which it is more
profitable to start u
separate establish-
ment than to add to
the glass of one al-
ready in operation.
Vital Decisions.
Just where that
" certain i>oiiit ' ' is,
must always be more
or less a matter of
opinion and it is a])-
parent that Mr.
Weiss revises li i s
own ideas on the
subject, as he is at
present .-ulding an L.
& H. house 70x400
to the first range in
his string. Appar-
entlv he now con-
si d'ers L'00,000 to
l.'rjO,000 feet about
the right unit for
operation to t h e
best advantage.
Tiic first range of
glass Mr. Weiss
built was only 10,-
0(10 feet. It was at
Maywood, where he
grew carnations and
s w e e t jieas from
Ktll to 191."?. In the
latter year he sold
this ]ihii'e and or-
ganized the Weiss-
Meyer Co., his asso-
ciates being his
father, F. 11. Weiss,

Discarding American Beauty.
But the Beauty already was ])ast its
zenith and as more glass was added
hybrid teas were tried, witli such good
success that Beauty was drop]>ed in
1917 and the range, which will cover
150,000 square feet of gri)und when the
new house is up, i,s jdaiited exclusively
to Columbia and Premier. Mr. Weiss
is secretary of the corporation and
manager of its business.
Mr. Weiss was one of the first to
recognize that the approaching end of
t-aul H. Weiss.
the war would be the signal to go
ahead with plans fur the development
of the business. Associating with him-
s<df some half dozen other well known
florists, he organized the $200,000 cor-
l>oration now known as the Premier
Hose Gardens, becoming secretary and
general manager. David Lundin is the
resident manager at the greenhouses,
which were erected on a 20-ac're tract
just north of Maywood, on the Soo Line
railroa<l. Four iron-frame ridge and-
furrow houses, .'^0x400. were erected in
the early j)art of 1919. In 1920 the
range was doubled by the er<>ction of
the two big detaciied steid-f ramers
shown in the loregrouiid of the illustra-
lioii on [lage L'ti. There .•ue only two
varieties of roses grown in this range.
They :ire Premier and Milady.
By the time the Premier Rose Gardens
weie in oiieration it had become easier
to buy th.'in to build— cheaper and, of
course, much quicker. So when the ma-
jority interest in the Batavia Green
house Co.. at Batavia, 111., was offered,
.Mr. Weiss iind some of his associates
took it uji, Mr, Weiss again becoming
se<-retary .and general manager. Gott-
lieb .Schoti, also a stockludder, remained
;is resident manager. The range, which
consisted of a dozen good-sized green-
houses in miscellanefius cro])s, was over-
hauled and put in first-class condition,
the crops being grailually worked over
to the newer \arieties of ros(>s.

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

Of a Family of Florists.
It may be that many of those who
h;i\r watched the reci'Ut rajiid develoji-
iiiciit of the Weiss c()r|>orat ions do not
appreciate that he comes of a family
ainays up ami doing. Air. Weiss was
liorn in Alilwaukec, August 7, 1SS9. Ilis
mother was one of the Amling girls, a
sistci' of E. C. Amling, of Albert F.
Amling and of the late W. II. Anding.
That ties him uj) jiretty (dosely with
some of the largest florists' interests in
the middle west, not to mention his
own. In the schools of Alilwaukee the
lad received a better than average edu-
cation. His first ,iob was as messenger
on the Roard of Trad(> there, then in a
bank, and at 120 he was ])ri\ate secretary
to a banking of1i(dal. It was a business
training that was to be of great value.
Alany visits were paid to his uncles'
l)laces at Alaywood and Chicago and two
years were sjient in an a])prent iccshiji
in the gre(>nhouses btd'ore he made the
start for himself, in IIU 1.
Always progressive, Air. Weiss is a
great belic\er in advertising flowers.
He was one of the first to advocate the
cooperative jilau of traile jmblicity and
all the coini)anies with wdiich lie is asso-
ciated are members of the Allied Flo-
rists' Association of Illinois. Mr. Weiss
himself is an active worker in many
trade organizations and is an ardent
supporter of the national jiublicity cam-
paign. A'ote the "Say It with Flowers"
signboard facing the highway in the
Premier Rose Gardens picture, lie is
just completing a term as treasurer of
the Chicago l-'lorists' Club, is a member
of the National Growers' Association,
the y. A. V. and others.
At 31 Air. Weiss carries the duties of
the secretaryship of six corjiorations, of
four of which he also is general manager,
but he has time for ideal homo life. lie
an<l Airs. Weiss have three children, a
boy and twin girls. Their home as well
as the general (dlice of the four green-
liouso comjianies is on the grounds of
the Wciss-Aleyer Co., at Alaywood.

ticultural societies held June \~>, 11*20,
at the American ^Museum of Natural
History, New York, to consider the situ-
ation in regard to Quarantine No. H7,
has made its ))reliminary report in the
form of a leallet entitled, "An Aiii)eal
to Evcrv Friend of American Horticul-
ture."
After citing the various steps lead-
ing u]) to the issuing of Quarantine No.
37, the report ]>uts the situation brielly
as follows: ''Designed for the admir-
able jiurjiose of protecting the United
States against the ailmission of addi-
tional insects and diseases injurious to
plant life, the regulations prcimulgated
from time to time under the quarantine
have in efl'ect acted as an embargo,
preventing the importation of any jilanis
or see<ls excejjt those permitted by nar-
row and seemingly arbitrary rulings.
Furtlier, permits to import under these
regulations have been granted or re-
fused in such fashion as to make the
Federal Horticultural Board the con-
troller of horticultural research and
commerce in a way hard to square with
the necessities of an adequate quaran-
tine."
Examples of Obstacles.
The report illustrates this as follows:

Ik this procedure and tlie treatineiit to wliicli
tiie plaiilK are siiltjected hiwv in some cases in
.|iire<l tlieni and in some cases completely killed
them.
While it ia true that the Federal Horticultural
Hoard theoretically will issue a permit to anyone
for the iniiiortation of plants he may desire, it is
also sadly true that in certain cases either such
I>erniits have lieeii arbitrarily ileiiieil or so loui;
delayed that the opportunity has passed. It is
.■ilso a fact that the rciiuiremeiit of a hond to
follow the importations fc.r two years oper.ites
as an effective embari;o to plant iiniiortatioii liy
amateurs.
The ortlcini aotinK for the Federal Ilortioiiltiiral
Hoard determines (lie quality of any plant which
in his wisdom it is proper to admit for propaca
tion imrposes, and there seems to 1k' no lo^'ii'al
hasis for liis determination.
The report states that "few realize
that the present quarantine was issued
after the bureau of jtlant industry,
February 26, 1918, had submitted to
the Department of Agriculture a rejiort
in which it was stated that in order to
jiroteot the country against dangerous
jdant pests and diseases the time seemed
to be iit hand for the inauguration of
a policy that would gradually result in
the exclusion of all foreign nursery and
tlorists ' stock."
Sentiment of Conference.
The report jioints out that, individual
attemjits to correct the faults of the
quarantine having failed, the coiU'ereiK'c
referred to at the beginning of this
article was called, at which forty-tivo
societies were rcqiresented, including
jiractically all those interested in hor-
ticultural advancement. The commit-
tee says:
The Keiieral sentiment of the meetiiii; was In
favor of an adecpiate .mil reasonalile cpiaraiitine,
but stfint'ly opposed to iiieipiiialile regulations,
and to the practical impo^iiion of an embargo
ai-'ainsl plants from aliroad. The discussion
showed great respect for the prcd)ity of the
Kcileral llorlicultural Hoard, but it was b.dieved
that tliis board did not aileipialely realizi' either
the ultimate result of the <iu.irantine as en-
forced or tie" fact that the (juarantine was in
etTect an embargo rather than a ipiarantino.
The outcome of tliis meeting was the appoint-
nieni of a geuer.-il coininittei'. consisting largely
"f priv.ate individu;ils interestfd only as amateur
hcirliculturists. whiidi aiipoinled a small executive
ionimittei> to coiisiiler the situation ami to for-
mulate a report and a detinite plan of action.
America Needs Foreign Plants.
The committee takes the stand that
"it is important to prevent the impor-
tation into his country of insects and
diseases injurious to vegetation." It
believes that "necessary .and reasonable
regiil.'itions will lie obeyed and supported

The Florists' Review

by all patriotic citizens, but that if such
regulations prove, in practice, to be
drastic, unreasonable and not actually
essential to the end in view, and defi-
nitely damaging to the progress of hor-
ticulture in America, they should be
modified."
After a comparison of horticulture' in
America with its more advanced de-
velopment in Europe and Asia, the re-
port continues, "With the contemplated
total embargo in force, it would never
again be possible to secure for the
United States any newly discovered,
rare, interesting, valuable exotic fruit
or ornamental plants, whether species
or hybrids."
Committee's Proposals.
The proposals of the committee are
contained in the following extract from
the report:
It should not be difBcult to show the necessity
for modifying a quarantine wliich prevents tlie
importiitlon in any (jnantity of plants with
sand or soil on thoir roots, no matter how care-
fully they have Ix-en lnsi)ected, fumlBated and
treated abroad, and yet which takes no account
of shiploads of soil brought in as ballast from
any port, tropical or otherwise, regardless ot
the fact that this soil is never inspected, fumi-
gated or treated, and may contain insects and
germs of diseases dangerous to human beings or
plants.
If, as we believe is the fact, a sane and
efficient quarantine is deeirahle, the oflicials of
the government owe the people a whole duty
and not a half duty. A quarantine defined hy
carefully studied law and not by incidental
official regulations established under a broad
law, protecting not merely through the exclusion
of incidental plants but through the exclusion
or treatment of other disease and insect-bearing
media, would. If properly proposed, be supported
by the people. If the necessity is shown, we
believe that the Federal Horticultural Board,
or some other executive agency, will be provided
■with funds to establish quarantine stations at
enough ports of entry adequately to protect the
nation and to serve at the same time the proper
desires and convenience of its citizens. It is
our confident t)elief that well equipped and
carefully administered quarantine stations should
be established at a certain number of ports of
entry, such, for example, as San Francisco,
Seattle, New York. New Orleans and Roston.
Unless some such action is taken, the extension
of the present system of exclusion by regulation
under a blanket law will undoubtedly result
In the total embargo against further horticultural
progress in the t'nited States which the report
of the biirenu of plant industry alK)ve referred
to seems to have had in mind.
Time has been lost and animosities engendered.
and valuable imported plants and seeds have
been destroyed since the quarantine became ef-
fective, because no well prepared and ndecpiate
presentation of the facts has been made to the
officials of the Pepartment of Agriculture, and
it is no reflection on those offlclMls to jtropose
for them assistance in the gaining of inf<*ma-
tlon. which must be gathered slowly, carefully,
and at different times and places, to show
the facts and the effects concerning this plant-
quarantine which Is so dangerously near to plant-
exclusion.
It is. therefore, the proposal of this commit
tee to send a capable Investigator, furnished
with all requisite entomological, pathological
and other expert assistance, wherever It may
be necessary to gain information. Interview iii-
•llvlduals. compare notes and obt.ain statements
and affidavits, upon which the facts can be
adequately presented to the federal authorities
at Washington.
It Is the purpose of this committee, when
such Information has been gathered and wlien
the law under which quarantine regulations
have been promulgated has been carefully studied
In connection with the situation, to ari-angf for
such argument and presentation, in the twlirf
that there should result a modiflcntion in some
respects, and an extension in others, of the
quarantine regulations, tending to phice horticul-
ture once again on a firm footing with relntiim
to the rest of the known world, and to make
it possible for any citizen of the I'nited States,
willing to provide the necessary snfegu.irils, to
import such plants as he may reasonably re-
quire.
To accomplish tlio objocts of the onm-
mittoe, thp Massachusptts Horticultural
Society, tho Horticultural Society of
New York and the Pennsylvania Hor-
ticultural Society have made substantial
subscriptions, believing that those in-
terested will provide the considerable
additional amount required.
"It is confidently believed," says the
report, "that those who are opposed to
a Chinese wall plant policy for America,
who think that we are entitled to other
plants which may be discovered any-
where as valuable to us as have been
the apple, the lilac, the potato and count-
less other familiar but exotic plants in
use today, will aid the work of this
committee in contributions and in ef-
fort."
Subscriptions and Information Wanted.
Subscriptions should be sent to the
treasurer of the committee, T. A. Have-
meyer, 50 Broad street, New York. Com-
munications and information may be
sent to any member of the committee
or to its secretary and attorney, Her-
bert W. Schlaffhorst, care of the Massa-
chusetts Horticultural Society, 300 Mas-
sachusetts avenue, Boston, Mass.
The members of the executive com-
mittee are: J. Horace McFarland,
chairman; T. A. Havemeyer, treasurer;
James Boyd, Frederic Cranefleld, Mrs.
Francis King, Dr. George T. Moore,
Frederic B. Newbold, Mrs. Percy Tur-
nure, E. C. Vick and John C. Wister.
Sioux City, la. — Rocklin & Lehman
have rented quarters in the Moter-Mart
building, where they will conduct a
wholesale and retail business.
CoUingdale, Pa. — The houses of Wil-
liam J. Waters here are in good shape.
Besides some fine mums, he has some
excellent primulas in the three varie-
ties of obconica, Chinensis and mala-
coides. He also has some good begonias
and cinerarias.

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

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

decorated with cypripediums; George C
Shaffer, Washington, dinner table of
orchids and olirysantliemuins; Mrs. Geo.
H. Cooke, Wiisliington. dinner table of
])alms, o;ik leaves and chrysanthemums;
Gude Bros. Co., Washington, dinner
table, witli electric fountain as center
piece, of anthurium, roses, ferns and
chrysanthemums; Henry A. Dreer, Inc.,
I'hiladelphia, Pa., booth depornted with
foliage plants; Dujiont Flow(^r Shop,
Washington, mantel and a jiicture and
frame made of yellow chrysanthemums,
violets and other flowers.
A chrysanthemum, a huge yellow
bloom, was named for ^Irs. Warren (J.
Harding; another, a white, was named
for Presidentelect Harding; one for
Mrs. Calvin Coolidge, and a bronze for
Vice-President-elect Coolidge.

although the exact date is to be tixed
later.
President's Address.
Thomas W. Head, who was unable to
be jiresent, sent his jiresident i;il suMress
to be read at the meeting. In it lie said:
"I exceedingly regret my inaVdlity to
be with you at this convention, as I had
lodked fdrward with a great deal of in-
terest to this meeting .and had expected
to take an .active interest in the matters
that are to cimie ii]i. but li.i\ iiiL: .just
recently (dianged my jiositicii, I tiiid it
iinjiossible for me to get aw;i\.
"Tlie exhiliits that I li:i\e se..n this
fall ha\(' not been ii|i In tlidse of jire-
war times. This is due to the fact that
ox]ierienced laluir has been hard tn get
and that many estates are still retrench-
ing and have closed the greenhouses for
tlie winter. The coal situation has liad
a little to do with it also; yet the imblic
could bo seen clamoring to get in to see
those fine lIoW(>rs, showing they were
still as fond of them as ever. The
scarcity of large blooms was noticeable.
Visitors seemed to favor the niodium-
sized llowers ;is being much better to
arrange for efl'ect in their homes. But
as long as wc are suiijilied with such
splendid novelties as C. H. Tottv, T. W.
I'ockett, K. 1). Smith and W. Wells have
been giving us we may expect them to
show these large llowers to let us see
what perfection they have arrived at
by their hard and zealous work in
hybridizing.
Trying Times.
•'This year has been a trying one for
the proper develoimient of the llowers,
as tlie warm fall seemed to take the
lit'e out df them and made them useless

many of the recent introductions doing
so w(dl with us, giving the introducer
great eneduragemeiit in his wiirk and
also inciting new blood to the work, as
there is a great lield ojieu in this line.

these lines ;ind his hard work has cer-
tainly been rewarded with excellent
novelties that he has originated.
''There is still a growing demand for
hardy flowering chrysanthemums, and
this year has been favorable to test some
of them out, but as yet the varieties to
( hoose from are not plentiful. I think
there is a great field open here, as so
many of these flowers can t)e used in our
borders for fall effect. I notice that
many of the landscape architects are
giving these fluwirs more attention anil
I myself have received numerous letters
this year asking for a list of the really
h.ardy mums t'or certain sections. So I
lidjie we shall lie able to imjirove on

thusiasts into the field? This all helps
to improve the gardeners' ]iosition by
showing the public that it takes a man
of exjierience and a man who loves his
]ir(ifession to produce excellent flowers.
So it is u]i to us, one and all, to encour-
;ige these jiublic exhibitions and adver-
tise ourselves ;ts well as our products,
which we have spent so many years to
learn to jiroduce, and 'Say It with
Flowers' to the world."
Secretary's Report.
Secretary C. W. .lohnson presented
his report, which was as follows:
''The eighteenth annual meeting was
held in conjunction with the annual fair
of the American Institute of the City
of New York at the Kngineering build-
ing. New York. There was ;i creditable
showing of fine blooms exhibited by the
members of the society, consisting prin-
cipally of the standard exhibition and
commercial varieties, but few seedlings
or new varieties. The lack of new
seedlings at our exhibitions brings to
the mind of ex])erieiice(l exhibitors , the
difference between the shows of today
and those of former years, when the
gretitest interest was centered on the
seedlings and novelties, and now that
we can not depend on foreign importa-
tions to create this interest, it is u
challenge to the members of the C. S. A.
to demonstrate their ability along the
lines of jiroducing new varieties. 'There
was .a strong showing of the pompon
.and single varieties. whi(di attracted the
attention of the visitors, showing how
popular these varieties are with the
general ])ublic. The secretary was in
attendance at the show .and a re])ort of
the proceedings has been printed and
mailed to all members of the society.
''Your secretary has noticed most-
]i!irticnlarly during the last year the
falling oft" in the suiiport the society is
i-eceiving from the private gardeners.
This may be duo to the conditions as
they exist on jirivate places fcdlowing
the war, but as the C. S. A. has drawn
its strongest support from the ranks of
the gardeners, we can ill afford to lose it.
Commercial Plantings Larger.
"The planting of chrysanthemums for
commercial cut flower purposes is larger
than over this year, os[iecially the pom-
]ion varieties, but up to the present time
the demand has kept pace with the sup-
]ily throughout a greater part of the
country. In the eastern states the un-
usually fine weather for this time of
year has advanced the flowering ])erio(l
of most of the varieties so that the sea-
son will be shortened considerably;
otherwise the chrysanthemum grower
has little to complain of.
"()^ving to the increased cost of print-
ing, evciything connected with the
secretary's office along the lines of sta-
tionery has been more expensive,
r^xamining the committee's scoring
sheets and the annual rejiort cost more
than in preceiling years, but all of those
items have been .attended to as hereto-
fore. The examining committees have
continued to be efficient in their work
in the .judging of the new varieties sub-
mitted to them. The tr.ade jiapers, as
heretofore, generously ]iul)lished all no-
tices sent to them from time to time
during the year, for which we owe them
a vote of thanks.
''"N'oiir secretary wishes to acknowl-
edge the kindness of Elmer D. Smith in
furnishing him with a com]ilete list of
varieties disseminated in 1910, which
was !i groat help in getting u;' the

GROWING LILY OF THE VALLEY.
Will you kindly inform us liow to
grow lilies of the valley and whether
the climati«' condition of the st.'ite of
Michigan is suiteil for the growing of
them commercially.' ^VIl.■lt kind ot' soil
do tliev need.' Should tliev be grown in
the sh.ade? W". N.— Mich.
There is no good reason why you
cannot grow lily of the valley success-
fully outdoors in your state. The plant
is of comiiarativcly easy culture and not
fastidious as to soil. 1 find it succeeds
esjiecially well in a stiff soil to which
considerable sand is added, but I know
of others with quite light h(u1 who grow
it successfully. To produce good pips
and large sjiikes, it is necessary to en-
rich the soil well with rotted manuro
and a top-dressing of this on the beds
each fall makes a noticeable diflfercnco
in them.
Plant in rows eighteen inches ajiart,
setting individual pips five to six inches
apart. I'laiiting is best if done in the
fall, gi\iiig the beds a mulch of some
light material when the soil becomes
fro/en hard. Frecpient cultivation is
necessary to keep the beds clean and the
jilants growing well. Valley prefers a
little shade, but succeeds well in the
open. The flowers will keeji much better
in {larlial shade. Replanting should bo
done every third or fourth year, when
tlie strongest [djis can be selected for
forcing and the smaller ones replanted.
There is no reason why excellent forc-
ing pips cannot be jiroduced in your
state. I should, however, test out in a
small w;iy ;iiid ex[>eriiuent before jdant-
ing heavily. C. W.

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

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

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

A TIMK has come in which we need no

ing day sales? Send clippings of your

window display to The Ecview, telling us
about it.
To close down glass now is refusing
the opportunity to make money three or
four months hence. Neither the high
cost of coal nor the business situation
warrants it.
In order that The Review may reach
its readers at the usual time, the forms of
the issue of November 25, Thanksgiving
day, will close one day earlier than usual.
Contributors and advertisers should send
their material to reach this office not
later than November 20.
Though prices in other lines continue
to fall, florists need not and should not
ask less for what they sell. So far were
florists from profiteering during the war
that they did not, as a rule, charge as
much <as they should, even when prices
were highest. Though raw materials
and labor are lower in other lin^Si^j^-OW"
ers do not cost less to grow, and the nbrist
who lowers prices does so at his own
expense.
Sometimes one hears complaint that a
florist does not receive so many telegraph
delivery orders as he thinks he should, but
usually it develops that the number of
orders received is at least as great as the
number sent out. There is just one way to
build up a good volume of incoming trans-
fer orders; it is to work up among one's
customers a good volume of these orders to
send out. Every order sent out sooner or
later results in one coming back. Qet some
orders to transfer to florists in other cities
and there soon will be orders coming back,
a fair exchange all around.
The flower business in the country
towns has been affected scarcely at all
by the deflation process now, we hope,
approaching completion.
The growers who produce the best
stock were the least backward about pay-
ing a high price for their coal. Practi-
cally all have a full supply or plans for
obtaining it.
As employment becomes less in other
fields, former workers are returning to
the greenhouses. It would be a mistake,
however, to lower wages on that account.
Let us build up our working forces now
that we have the chance.
In the last six to twelve months there
have been enormous losses on stocks of
sugar, t^a, coffee, leather, wool, silk, seeds,
to mention only a conspicuous few.
Florists have been fortunate; nothing of
that kind has occurred or can occur in our
field.
Long ago a popular philosopher re-
marked that if a man made a better mouse-
trap than any other, even tliough he made
his home in tlie woods, the world would
beat a path to his door. That was before
the days of modern selling methods and
national advertising; today the man would
move out of the woods, blazon the merits
of his mousetrap and make a fortune
large enough to build a concrete auto-
mobile road to his country residence in
the woods instead of letting the public
beat a mere path with their feet.

Isn't that a great bit of ver.se? Good
thing for a fellow to think about and
even to recite aloud if he can back it up
with results.
"Keeping a little in front of the
next" is more than beating your com-
petitors in business. Simply to take busi-
ness away from your neighbors by price
cutting is destructive, but effort to keep
ahead of them in the creation of new
ideas in flower arrangement, display and
selling tends to speed up and improve
your service and that of all those in the

coal situation was noted in a review
of the industry issued at the beginning
of this week by the National Coal Asso-

those growers seeking further fuel sup-
plies. The association said it had no
reports of any "immediate shortage"
from any section of the country.

need of soft coal early in the fall now
have an ample supply on hand," the
review asserted. "Public utilities
everywhere have had their immediate
wants filled, while many of them have
been -able to provide stocks for the
winter."
Decreased prices have resulted as a
natural consequence of the improved
situation, the review declared, adding
that in many places the decline had
been "from twenty-five to fifty per
cent below prices which prevailed up to
six weeks ago."
The government geological survey's
weekly report estimated bituminous pro-
duction during the week ending No-
vember 6 to have been only 11,500,000
tons, due largely to loss of time on
election day and on religious holidays
in the coal fields.
HAVE YOU HEARD OF IT?
"This is a new one to us," writes
W. E. Kemblc, from Oskaloosa, la. "We
wonder if you have ever heard of it
before, or if other florists know of any-
thing like it and what they think about
it. We have our own opinion, but should
like to know what others think."
Being in the same situation and of
the same mind as Mr. Kemble, The
Review prints the clipping from an Oska-
loosa paper which explains the novelty
that caused his wonderings:
Leo and Art Baldauf, nephews of the late
Aaron Bosenhlatt, also W. S. Oberfelder, a rela-
tive of the family, have instituted a Memorial
Flower Fund in Oskaloosa by a money contri-
bution to the local Social Service League and
by their suBgestions the Social Service Board
has established "The Memorial Flower Fund"
and is following up the ideas of older organiza-
tions in the manner of handling this fund.
In the case of the deatli of a friend you ma.v
give this lasting tribute by notifying the Social
Service League that you wish to contribute a
definite amount to the Memorial Flower Fund in
memory of .your friend. The secretary then In-
forms the immediate family that in memory of
the departed one a contribution to the Memorial
Flower Fund has been made by the above In-
dividual and that the name of the loved one thus
remembered will be included in the Memorial
Flower Fund list in tlie next report of the Social
Service League.
This fund, of course, is used for the relief of
the ill and the poor, and tiie sentiment conve.ved
in furnisliing flowers for such occasions is carried
out in the desirable manner descril)ed above.
In the near future the Social Service League
win have the necessary printed blanks, includ-
ing letter that will be sent by secretary to the
immediate family, and will be very glad to have
these on display for information and approval.
POINTING A MORAL.
Anyone can print a newspaper — as
long as his money holds out — but it is
quite another matter to get that news-
paper read. One can even get people
to subscribe to a publication without
reading it — you can lead a horse to
water, but you mav not make him drink.
That is the" test:
I consider every issue of The Review worth
the subscription price for a year and never get
too busy to read it every week. — Darwin Z. Cur-
tiss, dealer in Bulbs, Plants, Seeds, Ypsllanti,
Mich., November 8, 1920.
The advertising manager of the paper
that is read has the softest snap on earth
— results bring advertising faster than
anything else ever will:
Continue the same Display ad to Deceml)er; it
is doing good work. — M. D. Preston, Highland
View Gladiolus Gardens, Cuyahoga Falls, C,
November 8, 1920.
Please discontinue my Classified ad and hold
balance to my credit till some future time; sold
out. — Mumma's Greenhouses, Leesburg 0., No-
vember 4, 1920.
If you hear a man complain of the
cost of advertising you can be pretty
certain he spends a good bit of money
elsewhere than in The Review.

The Florists' Review

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

day evening, November 15, at the same
hotel, for the purpose of electing ofllcers
and taking action looking to a broaden-
ing of influence of the association. A
number of those present pledged them-
selves to bring at least two new mem-
bers into the organization at the next
meeting. G. E. M. Stumpp presided
and Wm. A. Phillips acted as secretary.
A killing frost during the night of
Friday, November 12, ended the cut of
outdoor flowers, which this year was
prolonged to a remarkable extent. On
the morning of that day cannas, dahlias
and other tender flowers were in evi-
dence in the gardens of suburban New
York, nearly a month after the time
when killing frost is expected in this
latitude.
The annual dinner of the New York
Wholesale Florists' Protective Associa-

Beautiful flowers and elaborate deco-
rations now grace the walls of what
was once the Hestcrberg cafe. Not
long ago, when liquor could sharpen the
wits of tlie patrons, the political desti-
nies of Now York were molded by the
would-be politicians, who gathered in
this very room. It is now a flower store.

oial feature in the entertainments for
the evening of November 16.
Whether or not the local publicity
campaign now in course of promotion is
being anticipated by the New York
newspapers is hard to say, but it is sig-
nificant that the big New York Times,
which is not noted for its interest in
matters concerning the florists' indus-
try, devoted almost a column of space
in its issue of Sunday, November 14,
on the page facing the editorial page,
to an interview with Max Schling, in
which he put over a -lot of facts in re-
gard to a proper and wider use of flow-
ers and floral decorations. In the same
issue Js reported an interview with
Oscar Meyer, in charge of the flower
shop at the Hotel Pennsylvania, at
which was discussed the plant embargo
under Quarantine 37, particularly aa re-
gards the orchid situation.
There was a well-attended meeting of
retail florists, called by the Eetail Flo-
rists' Association, through Vice-Presi-
dent E. J. Hession, at the Hotel Penn-
sylvania, Wednesday evening, Novem-
ber 10. The matter of the proposed
local publicity campaign was discussed
at considerable length, and it was unani-
mously decided to meet again on Mon-
CHICAGO.
The Market.
The business is gaining momentum
with each passing week. While the
city trade is uneven, being marked by
frequent dull days among the busy ones,
shipping trade is increasing steadily
and the volume of sales in the market
again generally exceeds the records of
last year. It is apparent that chrysan-
themums are approaching the end of
their season earlier than in any recent
year, not only in Chicago, but through-
out the entire section which draws its
supplies of out flowers from this market.
As the mums are cut out, the demand
for roses and carnations is on the in-
crease. The wholesalers note that the
demand is much more active in certain
sections than in others, or perhaps it
would be more exact to say that the
demand is not so strong in certain cities
as it is generally throughout the middle
west. The manufacturing centers seem
to be less active than the agricultural
centers. But if city business were rela-
tively as strong as shipping demand it
would be to the advantage of this mar-
ket.
There are not half as many chrysan-
themums on the market as was the case
a year ago this week and the supply of
pompons is even smaller. In a general
way it may be said that the big mums
are unusually good and everyone notes
that the fanciest stock is in best de-
mand. Pompons are selling at much
better prices than last year, more be-
cause of the difference in supply than
because of greater demand.
Rose crops are not heavy. Most of the
growers are looking forward to Christ-
mas and they are not cutting much just
now. The result has been some im-
provement in the value of practically all
grades and varieties. The market never

mums and pompons than in any recent
year, but larger supplies of other flow-

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

Checking up the records, P. C. Schupp,
of the J. A. Budlong Co., says he finds
prices now are running about twenty-
five per cent below the values of the
same goods last year. From this he
deduces that the florists' business is in
about the same condition, as far as
prices go, as other industries. He
thinks the difference is due to increased
production rather than a decrease in the
demand, because he finds his own sales
running to a little higher total, day by
day, than they did a year ago, which
indicates handling considerably more
stock.
A. Miller was at the Twin Cities last
week on a hunting expedition — with a
gun, not an order-book. He is at Mem-
phis this week, having a place on the
program of the Tennessee State Florists'
Association.
Most of the local growers now use
Illinois coal, but Wietor Bros, have
stuck to Pocahontas, having found that
while it costs more, it still is cheapest
in the long run. In the good old days of
peace and plenty mine run Pocahontas
cost 90 cents a ton at the mines and $3
per ton on track at Eogers Park. Today
it costs $4.90 at the mines and $8.55 at
Rogers Park. When one considers that
Wietor Bros, need 5,000 tons for an
average winter, the magnitude of the
large growers' fuel problem can be ap-
preciated.

Carnations arc doing somewhat better
as their quality improves, and prices
now vary from $3 to $5 per hundred.
Eoses remain somewhat unwieldy in
number; they will not really come into
their own until the mum wave starts to
recede.
Violets still remain slow sellers, al-
though they are not at all abundant.
Pansics arc exceptionally fine and move
at better prices than violets. For sweet
peas there is a good demand at higher
figures than a week ago. Calendulas go
somewhat sluggishly, as do bachelor's
buttons. Pink snapdragons sell well,
but Paper White narcissi, which could
not be retarded in so warm a fall, are
druggy. There arc not so many lilies,
but the call for these and callas is not
robust.
Of cattlcyas the supply is declining
and prices show a slight hardening. A
good crop of cypripediums is now com-
ing in. Of bouvardia nice bunches of
several colors come in, the white selling
best. Good stock of such flowering
plants as chrysanthemums, cyclamens,
begonias and Erica melanthera are com-
ing in and the sale of these, berried
solanums, ferns and various foliage
plants is improving.

The National Grange T. of H. has
been in session here since November 10
and it has brought tens of thousands of
Grangers to Boston. November 12, at
the afternoon and evening sessions, no
less than 9,800 candidates received the
seventh, or highest degree in the order,
the largest initiation of any fraternal
order at any time in the "United States.
As flowers were used freely, the sessions
must have stimulated cut flower busi-
ness. A number of florists were noted
among the visiting Grangers. A superb
exhibition of New England products
was given in Mechanics building.
Fruits, vegetables, flowers — everything
produced from the soil, of the highest
quality, was to be seen.
Mrs. E. K. Parr, of Stoneham, has a
splendid bench of her new semi-double
begonia of Vernon type, which is a con-
stant bloomer, never exceeds seven
inches in height and blooms equally
well outdoors and under glass. It will
be shown before various clubs and so-
cieties and disseminated the coming
season.
Thomas Roland has already sold sev-
eral hundred of his high-grade cycla-
mens, which are better than ever this
season. He is still cutting some fine
nerines at Nahant, while from Revere
come excellent shipments of Premier,
Columbia, Crusader, Ophelia and Double
White Killarney roses.
M. W. Farr, of the West Street Green-
houses, Reading, has a splendid house
of sweet peas in full crop. There are
some fifteen varieties, including some of
the newest and best, and no better flow-
ers ever came in here at this season.
The Massachusetts Horticultural So-
ciety is mailing to many clubs, societies
and individuals a statement of what is
being done by the special committee ap-
pointed in New York last June to secure
necessary modifications of Quarantine
37. The committee has been active for
some time and has recently secured the
services of a special secretary attorney
to secure statistics, etc. The fight
against the exclusion act will be pushed
with all possible vigor and, with A. C.
Burrage a leader in the movement, it
steadily gains niomentupi.
The 'first cold snap of the season
found growers in this vicinity pretty
well equipped with coal and, as many
had also laid in stocks of wood, the out-
look is quite encouraging. The anthra-
cite situation is bad, but will steadily
improve from now on, as restrictions on

PHILADELPHIA.
The Market.
The second week in November was
quiet. Both supply and demand were
light, much lighter than usual at this
time of the year. The first really hard
freeze of the season came the night of
November 12. The mercury the follow-
ing evening marked 20 degrees Fahren-
heit. Usually the fate of the dahlia is
linked with the first frost, but this sea-^
son it made no difference; the dahlia
has been out for two weeks.
The first of the late chrysanthemums
have come — Batons, Chadwicks and
Seidewitz. The evidence is strong that
chrysanthemums will be more plentiful
the coming fortniglit than they have
been during the last. With the excep-
tion of the outdoor stock, pompons have
been doing well. Most of the outdoor
stock of pompons, however, has been
killed by the frosts.
Carnations have been selling better
than they did a week ago. Well colored
Wards have moved up in price and even
whites sell now.
Single violets have jumped in price
and not many are available now. There
are fewer grown and the extremely fine
fall has forced them ahead and out of
bloom before their time. Double violets
have arrived on the market.
Easter lilies are firm, even though it is
chrysanthemum season. A few garde-
nias have arrived. Orchids have been
reiinforced by Cypripedium Sanderi.
Bouvardia Humboldtii is about over.
There are some sweet peas in all colors.
Cosmos is over.
The Mule Faxm.
The Mule Farm is the plaything of
one of the brightest minds in Philadel-
phia. A man who made and spent
money as few of us can do, derived
delight from blooded cattle, from poul-
try and from flowers. When reverses
came he leased the greenhouses. So it
came that the vi.sit was made.
Something like twenty miles out of
town, three miles from a railroad sta-
tion, tlie Ellenwood Greenhouses are
situated in the midst of beautiful coun-
try. A year and a half ago they were
leased by Alfred M. Campbell, who was
quick to see their commercial possibili-
ties. He placed William Lausterer in
charge and set about getting the place
in shape. Although cleaning was only
accomplished by a lot of hustling, the
entire place was planted with roses in
rich, mellow soil. Three varieties were
selected, Premier, Ophelia and Double
White Killarnej'. No space was wasted
on odds and ends. The practical, busi-
nesslike view — when you are going to
grow roses, you had better grow roses —
was followed. Pink, being the most
popular color, was given half the space.
The other half was divided between yel-
low and white. The place holds 20,000
plants, so there are 10,000 Premier and
5,000 each of Ophelia and Double White
Killarney.
The plants are the same today as when
they were planted. The stock has been
well oared for, rested and cut back.
The Double White Killarney has, evi-
dently, yielded a good crop in October
and will do so again in December. The
Ophelia is in full crop now. The Pre-
mier has been timed for Christmas and
January and promises well. A pile of
Westmoreland coal, salvage of the Had-
ner wreck, is steaming splendidly.

The Philadelphia Show.
Over near the east end of the armory,
beyond those exquisite standard helio-
tropes, was an unusual exhibit. It was
a vase of Purple King iris arranged with
grasses. The exhibitor was a girl. The
exhibit came from this city, yet if you
were on the ground you would hardly
believe it possible that you were in
Philadelphia, so far away are the built-
up sections. It is historic ground, too,
for this tract of land belonged to Robert
Logan, secretary to William Penn. It
remained in the family ever since, with

terest in the rose exhibit. One was the
<'ontest between a veteran and a youth
in the regular contest for gardener's.
The veteran came out ahead, but the
youth did well, taking one first. The
other was the seedlings. There were
two Ophelias; both showed promise.
One was Eobert Scott & Son's deep pink,
Mrs. Prentiss Nichols; the other, Ed-
ward Towill's cerise pink, here chris-
tened American Legion. Mrs. Prentiss
Nichols looked even better at the exhi-
l)ition than at home a year ago, creating
enthusiasm among the experts. Ameri-
can Legion has met with much com-
mendation, encouraging its aspirations
to a place beside American Beauty.
Taken all together, the Pennsylvania
Horticultural Society has accomplished
something noteworthy in putting up such
a good exhibition. Returning to the cen-
ter of the city after an absence of three
years, it was no small achievement to
till the armory with a good selec-
tion of well grown stock. To measure
tlie sliow on prewar standards is absurd.
We have given our country our best ; we
tiavc given our men and our coal and our
money. Now we are starting afresh.
Tlie show was a good sliow; next year
we shall have a better.

My Dear Mr. Hust:
I was greatly pleaned willi the fxliit>ition iiivpn
t>y the society last week. T'nder postwar condi-
tions, it was most creditable.
I have one criticism to mnke — that tlie descrip-
tions of the show published in tlie daily press
:ire injurious to horticulture. "A chrysanthemum
plant with 1,000 blooms," "Two thousand Ameri-
<an Reauties," and bo on, were the expressions
used. Tbesp statements do harm. They are
unworthy of our profession. Occasionally they
are the result of overentbusiasm or they may
be errors. Generally, they are preventable.
Should you agree with me in this matter 1
feel sure that you will take measim's to dis
•ouraKc inaccurate reporting.
With kindest regards.
I am very truly yours.

the s])irit of comradeship. Men and

Fear was exjircssed lest there should
not be room for both the au<lience and

was full, but not overcrowded. Taking

This is literally true, one specimen
chrysanthemum plant being heralded as
possessing no less than 150 blooms.
There are finely shajjed chrysanthemums
and big specimens and little pompons
and a lovely fern decoration. Most in-
teresting of all was the exhibit of apples
— good fruit from a reclaimed orchard
near Media, which had expert care since
March. So much accomplished in six
months, what will another show?
Various Notes.
Professor J. G. Sanders, of the state
agricultural department, has written
from Harrisburg to growers in this sec-
tion, warning them that the Japanese
beetle has appeared in Pennsylvania
and asking them to check its spread.
It is estimated that decreased pro-

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

Warburton's, Fall River, Mass., in-
augurated the season with an informal
flower show which was appreciated by

Thanksgiving and Friendliness
1620-1920
•THREE HUNDRED years ago this Fall, the
•*■ Pilgrims set aside a day to return thanks to
God for bringing them safely to this land of
freedom, peace and plenty.
It was a day of thanksgiving, of joy and of
friendliness.
As the pilgrims greeted each other on that first
happy Thanksgiving day, they gave their
friends, with their "God bless you," a sprig of
barberry or of juniper, as an earnest of good-
will—So it has been always.
Andfnow another Thanksgiving Day, with its
wealth of beauty, happiness and goodwill, is
soon to be with us.
Hearts glow with friendliness and people turn

beautiful of message carriers.

present, when the mills are all running

as good prices as last year, we believe
we shall do well, especially by keep-

The Market.
At the various wliolesale markets last
week seasonalilo cut stock was plentiful
in all grades, hut there was no glut in
any one variety. The demand for choice
stock has been (^xci'llent all the week and
the leading florists carry a great deal
more stock since trade has l)ec()me
steady. According to the daily ])ress,
society events will include many wed-
dings, balls and social functions during
the remainder of the nionlh and es])c-
cially Thanksgiving week.
The stock coming to this market daily
includes quantities of fancy cut mums
in all tlie leading varieties. Among
those in great demand are Bonnaffon,
both white and yellow. White and
Golden Chadwicks are great sellers, as
is also Chieftain. A great assortment
of fine jiompons is disjjosed of each
day.
Roses are in great abundance, but suf-
fer somewhat in demand, as chrysanthe-
mums have the call at present and only
prime stock in Premier, Kussell, Coluin-
l)ia and Milady are sold readily. Ameri-
can Beauties were scarce in this market
last week. Tlie market liad a gooil
supply of White Killarnev, which sold
well. ■
Carnations are arriving in fine shajie
and the market lias plenty for all de
mands. Rome splendid blooms of all the
loading varieties were seen daily. Val-

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

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

J. F. Ammann, secretary of the Na-
tional Flower Growers' Association, who
was a visitor last week, left the night

meeting of the growers of Iowa, Novem-
ber 17.
Joseph Witek and his assistant, Robert
Holmes, are showing artistic and attrac-

The Market.
Outdoor stock is over and the market
is fast getting down to normal. The
supply of mums is the only thing that
prevents a shortage. The end of the
mum is now in sight, and as the growers
have been holding everything back until
they are over, if the crops oif roses and
carnations are not timed right there is
going to be a big dearth of stock in a
few weeks. Extra mums are in good
supply, but mediums have been running
short; this may be due to the fact tliat
the season is ncariiig the end. It has
been a wonderful mum season, for,
while the crops came upon the market
almost at once, they sold u]) fairly well;
the only complaint to be lieard is that
prices were not so good as they might
have been.
Pink mums have been scarce all fall.
When such a shortage occurs everyone
goes in for that stock and the next
season floods the market. It might be
a good idea to try and find out the
quantity of pink mums that will be
grown next season and regulate your
crop accordingly.
Roses, while they are not in large
supply, are in sufficient quantity to meet

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

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

mums to wear at the banquet. After
a most enjoyable afternoon everyone
got to the hotel about 6 o'clock to rest
up for dinner.
At 8 o'clock Mr. Gude led the
march to the dining room. A splendid
dinner was served. Mr. Gude made a
happy toastmaster, and the whole affair
was just a big family party, for, aside
from the president of the district com-
missioners, no one responded to toasts
but florists. Mr. Gude made one depar-
ture from the usual routine when he
called upon Mrs. Mary Johnston to tell
them how she had built up one of the
largest florists' businesses in Baltimore.
She was too embarrassed to reply, but
the crowd would not have it that way,
and after much applause she arose and
said that ' ' it had been by much hard
work and close application." Mr. Totty,
who followed her, said it was the best
speech he had ever heard, for in those
few words she had said all of it.
Among those in the Baltimore party
were the following: Charles Patterson
and wife, R. Vincent, Jr., R. A. Vincent,
Miss Grace Vincent, "William F. Keys,
John DeGroot and wife, Mr. "Williams,

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

and chrysanthemums. The classes also
exhibited various funeral pieces and bou-
quets. The show was of the highest
class and considered by all to be the
best ever held at State College. The
department was greatly indebted to
many commercial growers, who gener-
ously contributed to the great success
by sending flowers. The number of
visitors who attended the show was es-
timated at 5,000, among whom were
several growers.
Medals were awarded to the follow-
ing: Elmer J. Weaver, Ronks, Pa., for
Snowstorm sweet peas and seventy-five

of chrysanthemums and roses; Crissman
Greenhouse Co., Punxsutawney, Pa., for
a vase of twenty-five Golden Eaton
chrysanthemums; H. S. Brandt, York,
Pa., for five Jerusalem cherry plants.
The two most attractive features of
the show were the large basket of
October Herald grown by the depart-
ment of floriculture and Mr. Weaver's
vase of seventy-five Pilgrim. Prof. E. I.
Wilde is in charge of the department
at the college and through his efforts
the show was made possible. He was
ably assisted by Joseph W. Dean, who
was formerly connected with Mr. Croll's
establishment and who is now a student
assistant at the college.
MONTGOMERY, ALA.
The Market.
The first freeze of the season came
Xovcmber 13. Up to that time there had
been an abundance of outdoor roses and
mums, which had caused a slight slump
ill sales. From now on, liowever, sales
will pick up and pass ]ir('vious years.
Not everything was killed, but stock
was so badly damaged that it can not bo
used and tlie buying public will have to
resort to greenhouse-grown flowers from
now on.
Carnations are arriving in winter
form. The blooms are large and are
beginning to come with long steins.
Roses are coming in fine shape. Cutting
back for Christinas has started and
]irospects for an enormous crop at that
time are assured.
Business has been a little slack for
the last two weeks, due to a lack of
funeral work and the amount of flowers
to be found outdoors. However, it will
now pick up.
Various Notes.
Kosemont Gardens are cutting some
fine mums, such as Golden Wedding,

Business has held up quite well during
October and so far in November, but the
prospects for December arc uncertain,
as the factories hero have laid off a
number of workers and those who have
not been laid off have had their wages
cut materially.
Albert Nodine met with some hard
luck Sunday morning, November 7,
when his greenhouse was partly de-
stroyed by fire, caused by spontaneous
combustion in a heap of soft coal near
his work shed. The damage was esti-
mated at about $3,000.

The autumn season this year has been
unusual in this section of the country.
The weather has been ideal. The fall
flowers, cosmos, dahlias and calendulas,
have had a chance to develop as they
never have before. It was not till last
week that there was frost enough to do
much damage. Mums are in the market
in quantity and are of good quality. In
some cases the growers report that the
warm weather has brought their blooms

outdoor flowers are past, they will move
rapidly. Good prices are obtained for
them. Violets have made their appear-
ance in time for the Yale football games.
Roses and carnations are improving
each day in quality. In pot plants,
ferns and cyclamens are in the lead. A
few potted mums are seen occasionally.
Various Notes.
The Florists' Club of Hartford held
its regular meeting at the City Club
Tuesday evening, November 9. An ex-
cellent dinner was served, after which
President Joseph F. Coombs called the
meeting to order. Five new members
were elected. The new advertising
schedule was read and was satisfactory
to everyone present. A committee was
appointed to call the florists of the state
together with the idea of forming a
Connecticut State Florists' Club. As a
state organization we shall be able to do
more in the way of legislation and ad-
vertising than is possible for a city club
to do. 8. S. Skidelsky gave a few in-
teresting remarks as to the trade con-
ditions about the country.

Mums of all grades are coming in
equal to the demand, but most varieties
are about a week or two in advance,
due to the warm weather here during

The continued spell of warm weather
being experienced in the east, particu-

to be detrimental to the florists' busi-

The stock, of course, is cleared practi-

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

Other miscellaneous stock on the mar-

Potted plants offered are chrysanthe-

was grown to perfection and the place
was ill immaculate order. Carnations,

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

Those Flowers
THE H & D Floral Box affords that ample protection,
economical weight and sturdiness which make it the
ideal container for your floral shipments. Cut flowers and
plants of all kinds are invariably in better delivery con-
dition when packed in these specially de-
signed containers. Stout walls and covers
prevent gaping of boxes and exposure of
contents, when under the weight of other
packages in transit. Made in various con-
venient sizes, all complying with postal and
express regulations. All standard and spe-
cial sizes to order.
For safer and more satisfactory containers
use H & D Floral Boxes.

will be no premiums. It is the object
of the florists to help make the apple
show a success, and in previous years it
has had few visitors. In this way they
will be able to obtain a donation from
the state, similar to the apple societies,
to put on an annual show. O. E. Stein-
kamp also gave a short talk and E. E.
Temperley appealed to all present for
stock in order to make this a creditable
display.
No action was taken concerning the
next meeting and adjournment followed,
in order to visit other places in Rich-
mond.
At the range of the Fred H. Lemon
Co. an interesting feature was the new
white rose, Angelus, which is superb.
This was also being grown in fine condi-
tion by the E. G. Hill Co. and Joseph H.

had some splendid Laddie carnations.

FRAT-M'S
Frat-Ms are a great help to florists who make funeral work. They are exact
reproductions of the ofllclal emblems embossed In gold and the different color* as
required by each Fraternal and Labor orKanizatlon.
The florist is saved time and worry in the nuisance of lettering, as well as the
keeping of such a stock of wire frames, and different colored flowers. Just use such
flowers as you have and then attach a FRAT-M with paste to the chlfTon, or by the
hanger that comes for each, as a card, and that is all there is to It, excepting the
comment and commendatory talk for the florist.
Just pick out a dozen of the most used from the list following, enclosing $2.00
per dozen, and if they don't make you ten times their cost, return those unused and
get your money.

Please the Recipient-Hold Customers
Make your customers remember^you for your better parcel post and
express service. Use Bulls Corrugated Fibreboard Boxes, so made
that they do not crush or gap open in shipment. Your flowers will be
delivered fresher and in better condition.
Bulis Boxes are shipped bundled, knocked down flat, and occupy little space.
Easy to set up. The covers fasten with Bulis Patented Corner Clasps that never
let go. "Fishhook" fasteners hold the comers of the boxes while
they are being filled, and reinforce them in shipment. Light
weight, strongly reinforced; do not crush under the weight of
packages in shipment. Bulis Boxes comply with all parcel post
and express regulations. Made in twelve different sizes. Can
be returned and used again, many times over, which cuts the box
cost. Will stand longer shipments and enlarge the scope of
your trade.

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

new retail store, Saturday, November
20. The store will be open all day and
evening. This company has been doing
a great deal of landscape work and
bulb planting this month.
The T. J. Noll Floral Co. has had a
busy week. Christmas supplies are
moving well.
Mr. Jacobus, of the Lester Green-
houses, Ottawa, Kan., was a visitor last
week.
The Muehlebach Flower Shop has a
number of big decorations booked for
Thanksgiving day.
The Pinehurst Floral Co. is getting
good results on its single disbudded
Mensa. The company is also cutting
Mensa in yellow and white, a few vio-
lets and the first sweet peas.
Lavender mums were the main decora-
tion used by the William L. Eock
Flower Co. at the Huttig wedding, at
St. Paul's church. Five large arches
of greens and mums made an arbor
effect in the center aisle, with ten can-
delabra and bunches of mums. The
altar was banked with mums. Orchids
and lilies of the valley formed the
bride's bouquet and the bridesmaids
e.'irried Ophelia roses and pompons.
The Kansas City Wholesale Cut
Flower Co. had a big call for mums last
week and has had some fancy stock.

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

Englewood, Cal. — V. M. Christian, for-
merly an employee in greenhouses here,
has entered business for himself. He has
built a greenhouse in the last year.
Albany, Ore, — The Albany Floral Co.
has changed hands, although it is still
under the old name. W. Duncan, the
former owner, has been bought out by
O. Romaine, who will run the business.
SAN JOSE, CAL.
A. A. Hunt, formerly superintendent
of the Arthur Letts estate, Hollywood,
Cal., and for several years connected
with the California Nursery Co., went
into partnership with Arthur Cann at
San Jose, Cal., in August. Mr. Hunt
manages the landscape department of
the business, which he states has been
progressing satisfactorily. The firm is
known as Cann & Hunt. Mr. Hunt is
widely known in the trade, having been
located at Millbrook, N. Y., previously,
and having been later superintendent
of the J. W. Clise estate, at Seattle,
Wash.
TUCSON, ARIZ.
John Howe and Mrs. Howe, of 44
Stone avenue, have returned from a trip
to Los Angeles and found many orders
awaiting them on their return. Mr.
Howe says that business has been better
ifkia year than any other year since he
?ha8 been in the trade. He has a large
ajod attractive store.
The Burns Flower Shop is the most
recent addition to the retail stores in
Tucson, and Mr. Burns reports a satis-
factory opening. Flowers for the open-
ing were shipped in from the E. C. Am-
ling Co., Los Angeles.
Considerable alterations are contem-
plated by the Tucson Seed & Floral Co.

PHOENIX, ARIZ.
The Market.
Plenty of good stock and a steady de-
mand for it, is the report from this
thriving city. The occasion of the state
fair made all the florists busier than
usual, many orders having been received
from visitors. A great deal of the stock
used is shipped from Los Angeles and
San Francisco, but there are great quan-
tities of outdoor roses grown here. It
is astonishing to see the fine quality of
American Beauties grown unprotected
from the sun. Both the foliage and the
blooms are as fine as indoor stock. These
and zinnias are the principal flowers
grown here.
Various Notes.
The Donofrio Floral Co. is a busy con-
cern. C. E. Morton and his able crew are
always at work. Heavy funeral orders
and preparation for the exhibitions at
the state fair occupied the attention of
the force last week. Several first prizes,
including one for wedding bouquets, one
for a group of ferns and one for a group
of flowers, were awarded to this firm.
Henry Morton, son of C. E. Morton, who
is employed at the store, stole a march
on his friends and was married last
week. Plans are being made to enlarge
the store in the near future.
The Arizona Seed & Floral Co. had the
flower concession at the state fair and
had an attractive booth. J. Sievers,
formerly of San Francisco, is now man-
aging the floral end of the business. Mr.
McNabb reports an increasingly good
business in the seed end. H. B. B.
LOS ANGELES, CAL.
Dominic Tassano has returned from
the north and reports that he has made
arrangements for Christmas greens and
berries to be shipped here in large
quantities. He says conditions, in re-
gard to labor and quality of stock, were
never better than at this time.
Whilfl giving Thomas Wright a
friendly call, the writer met Charles
Gutting, who, by his conversation, is
quite ready to handle holly berries, of
which he has thirty-five tons to market,
the bigger proportion of which is al-
ready ordered.
O. C. Saake reports that weegee birds
are moving fast, but he has a large
supply for the holidays.
A call at the store of the D. S. Purdie
Co. showed everyone was busy and that
business was rushing.
Frank Lichtenberg says business dur-
ing the last week has returned to old
form and his force is kept busy with
funeral work. The opening of the sea-
son at the various clubs has added
activity and is keeping everyone on the
jump. His store is a fine sight for
flower lovers. Much credit is due to
Mr. Hanson for the way in which he
keeps the windows and store decorated.
About thirty florists of Los Angeles,
all of whom had subscribed to the re-
cent anti-Japanese publicity fund, had
the pleasure of being Thomas Wright's
guests at his club for dinner Monday,
November 8, and spent an interesting
evening. He stated, while sitting at the
table, that there were a large number
of his friends in the business whom he
had failed to get in touch with, or had

The Market.
Chrysanthemums are stiffening in
price a little. The Japanese mums,
grown under cloth, are scarcer than
they were a week ago, and one or two
of the growers say it is difficult to sup-
ply them for eastern shipments at the
former prices. By Thanksgiving the big
mums will be commanding decidedly
higher figures than they brought early
in the season. The market is still flooded
with pompons in a vast variety of colors
and sizes. Outdoor mums are much in
demand for baskets and for dcoorativo
purposes.
Roses .nre becoming more plentiful and
it is gratifyinn; to the growers to note
that they nre advancing in price, as well
as in quantity. In a week it is expected
the supply will be still greater, ("nr-
nations are becoming more j)lentiful.
Lilies of the valley are coming in fairly
well and are showing a larger ]iercentage
of buds to the stem than they did earlier
in the season. There is just enough
valley to supply the local demand.
Violets are abundant and are of good
quality. Quantities of violets are being
shipped and the local market is consum-
ing them freely. The first California
Ciiristmas berries appeared in the mar-
ket November 10. These are toyon, or

The Market.
Business last week showed a gener-
ally good average, with enough funeral
work to keep the market clear of all
lines cxoe])t local mums. California
shipments arc still arriving, but the cuts
from local gardens have been arriving
so abundantly that there lias really been
an oversupply of the smaller types of
mums. This led to somewhat lower
prices, the only ease where a notable
change in the selling list was seen for
the entire week.
Some of the finest Bonnaffon ever
shown here are on the market now.
Local Turner is also of good quality.
Mums and roses are the leading sellers,
although carnations continue the most
desired flowers in the market. Tli" Ineal
crop of carnations has not develojied as
ex]ief1(Ml and each day the growers are
unable to fill orders.
There is going to be a heavy demand
for yellow and white mums of the larger
sizes the last week of this month, when
the University of Washington will f(»r-
mally open its new concrete stadium.

will be without crude asphaltum from

report among the Washington growers

consumers who have internal combus

of the last week's activities for the
Burns Floral Co.
Kenney's Home of Flowers reports a
continued run of funeral work, sending
out last week one entire truckload of
floral pieces for a large funeral at a
near-by town.
Stuber & Richardson last week deliv-
ered some fine pink Turner and bronze
mums. They expect a big crop of these
for this fall. They expect to clean up
on greenhouse tomatoes within a few
weeks.
McCoy's produced an attractive win-
dow last week through the use of mums,
lily bulbs and Chinese decorations.
The lily bulbs were shown in low basins
and on woven mats. Highly colored
Chinese corner pieces were used to add
color to the showing.
Nice business is reported from the
Woodlawn Flower Shop, with sales run-
ning ahead of the total for this time
one year ago. There have been plenty of
weddings lately to allow the develop-
ment of formal decorative plans.

It is estimated that 40,000,000 cata-

this country, an indication of the amount
of money that was contributed out of
deflated seed prices to inflated paper costs.
Holland bulb exporters who arc being

An advertising data book finds the seed

A SEEDSMAN had a nibble last week on
a car of beans of a variety of which ho
happened to have more to offer, so ho
queried four other houses and was sur-
prised at the variation in the prices
at which the stock was tendered. There
was a sj>road of 2^2 cents per pound over
the four offers.
Gardeners who have been holding crofis
of onion sets in the hope tlie market would
rally are in a bad way if they have no
storage. With operators well suj)plie(i
with sets grown on contract, there is no
bid price for crops forced on the market
by the ina'/ility of the growers to carry
them over the winter.
The Wisconsin Canncrs' Association,
comprising the principal pea ])ackers of
the United States, held its annual con-

attendance said to have ineliKled more

be a somewhat exaggerated statement of
the case, hut it is literally true that there
■were more pea peddlers than buyers.
Nearly every seedsman has peas to sell
this season.
TllE extremely high prices that were
paid for soy beans and cou]>e.'is last

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

shaping a code of vegetable nomencla-
ture to be submitted to the American
Seed Trade Association and the Vege-
table Growers' Association of America.
One of the first problems presenting
itself was the necessity of thorough in-
formation in regard to the trade names
and comparative market quality of the
different vegetables and their varieties.
It was quite evident that much assist-
ance must be obtained through a wider
circle of men to work on this part of the
problem. Consequently, the vegetables
were grouped together according to their
natural relationship, and some twenty-
one committees of the leading authori-
ties in the seed trade of America were
suggested as group committees and a
jjlan of work was mapped out for these
committees. Since the meeting of the
joint committee these men have all re-
ceived notice of their appointment, and
a gratifying response has been received,
indicating a general approval of the
work in hand and a willingness to co-
operate in carrying it out. It has been
thought best to delay the publication of
the individual committees until the re-
plies have been heard from all the men
who have been asked to do this work,
and any changes made which are neces-
sary.
Follow St. Louis Code.
The men of the bureau of plant indus-
try came to the assistance of the com-
mittee in the study of a code of nomen-
clature and provided a copy of the St.
Louis code, adopted by the American

Pomological Society at its meeting in

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

the code reads:
This code aims to establish a simple and ex-
act systPHi of vegetable variety nomenclature
that shall be appropriate, dignified and stable.
In consonance with this idea it is urged that all
persons conferring names upon new varieties of
vegetables endeavor to select brief names thut

ity, place, person or event, associated with the
source, time or place of origin of tlie variety.
The paramount right of the originator, discov-
erer or introducer of a new variety, to name it,
within the limitations of tliis code, is recognized
and established,
PRIORITY.
A name once used iu a group shall not be used
again therein.

grouped together in common usage without regard
to their botanical relationship.
The name first published for a variety shall be
the accepted and recognized name, except when
contrary to the provisions in this code.
Names appearing in dated publications shall
have precedence over those undated.
FORM OF NAMES.
Names of new varieties preferably sliall be of
one word, but must not exceed three words.
Valid names of existing varieties shall not be
changed in such a way as to lead to confusion or
loss of identity. Possessive nouns must lie avoid-
ed. It is recommended that an imported va-
riety shall retain its foreign name if not ob-
jectionable, or its English equivalent.
A recognition of increased value through im-
proved strains shall be obtained by a descriptive
phrase, in brackets, immediately following the
variety named; i. e., Ronny Rest Tomato (Hill
Crest grown) if grown at Hill Crest; (Jenkins'
strain) if grown by Jenkins.

shaping a code of vegetable nomencla-
ture to be submitted to the American
Seed Trade Association and the Vege-
table Growers' Association of America.
One of the first i)roblenis presiMiting
itself was the necessity of thorotigh in-
f<irmation in regard to the trade iKiincs
.and comj'arative market quality of the
iliffercnt vegetables and their varieties.
It w;is quite evident that much assist
ance must be obtained through a wider
circle of men to work on this i)art of the
]irobleni. Consequently, the vegetables
were grou])ed together according to their
natnr:il relationship, and some twenty-
one committees of the leading authori-
ties in the seed trade of Americ;i were
suggested as group committees and a
jihin of wurk w;is niap])ed out for these
committees. Since the meeting of the
jeiiil committee these men have all re-
ceived iu>tice of their a])]iointment, and
:i gratifying resjionse has been received,
indicating a. getieral ajiproxiil of the
work in hand ;ind ;i willingness to co
o]]erate in carrying it otit. It has been
thought best to (bday the jmblication of
the individual committees until the re-
]ilies h;i\e been heard from all the men
who liiive been asked to do this work,

s;i ?y.

have suggestions and criticism so long

them to he truly new and distinct. This board
of rcciNtratlon ahall have authority to IsBiie a cer-
tificate to the originator or intnxluoer of a new
variety, and such variety shall not be catalogued
or offered to the public until such a certiUcate
shall be issued.
It 1b understood that this boiird of reRlstra-

tect the owner or originator In his property rights

Organization Needed.
It will be easily seen that some or-
jjanization will have to be maintained
for the carrying out of the provisions of
the code. The officials of the bureau of
plant industry assured the committee
that they are ready to do anything in
their power to assist in this work. Tho
general sentiment was that there was no
agency in the world better fitted to carry
on this type of work, properly organized,
and that with close cooperation between
the seed growers, seed dealers, vegetable
growers and bureau of plant industry,
more progress could be made than has
ever been anticipated, and that the
United States would stand to lead the
world in this particular phase of tlie
work. Without question tho. results of
careful, .systematic effort along these
lines would lead to a much higher grade
of seeds, eliminate a good deal of trade
which is entirely unjustified, uncover 0]>-
portuuities now ]>rovided for men wlui
do an illegitimate businesSj and in every
way promote efficiency. On the other
hand, it seems clear that the opportunity
in the seed trade or in the production of
new varieties will be in no way
lessened, but the ])Ossibility of real
progress without waste of efl'ort will be
greatly enhanced.
DANISH SEED CROPS SMALLER.
"The decline in seed i)rices, which
made itself felt all the world over al-
ready during the 1018 season, and the
incongruity it evolved between the
Danish seed culture and the other lines
of Danish agriculture," state Hjalmar
Hartmann & Co., of Copenhagen, Den-
mark, in their crop report, "has caused
farmers to indulge in some unfounded
mistrust about seed growing, equaled
only by the ojitiinism they felt a few
years ago about the same subject.
"The change, as explained above, is
chiefly due to the dropping seed prices,
to which must be added that, at the same
time, the prices for breadstuffs and feed-
ing materials advanced. The incongru-

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

The Florists^ Review
NOTEMBBB 18, 1920
A PAMPHLET on tree surgery has been
prepared by the United States Deiiartment
of Agriculture. It may be obtained by
writing to Washington for Farmers' Bul-
letin No. 1178.
Shade trees and ornamental shrubs in
the United States represent a. value of
$1,000,000,000, according to the estimate
of the United States Department of Agri-
culture. Ten million dollars' damage is
done annually by shade tree insects.
According to a recent estimate, there
are in tho_ "United States 4,500 nurseries,
covering 172,800 acres, representing an
investment of $52,500,000, employing 45,-
€00 men and 2,279 women, using 14,200
animals, and there are 3,400,000,000
plants or trees growing in the nurseries
of this country.
Chestnut orchards which have been
practically annihilated by a blight of
Japanese origin may be restored through
efforts of the United States Department
of Agriculture. Ten years' experimenta-
tion has shown that it is possible to cross
the chinquapin, a dwarf chestnut, with
the Japanese chestnut, which is blight-
resistant, and that tho hybrid trees thus
produced are quite resistant to the dis-
ease and yield nuts of good flavor and
quality.
The twelve best roses, according to a
plebiscite taken by the Argus, a news-
paper of Melbourne, Australia, are
as follows: Madame Abel Chatenay,
455; Frau Karl Druschki (otherwise
Snow Queen), 423; Miss Marion Mani-
fold, 313; Lyons Rose, 265; Madame
Edouard Herriot, 261; Mrs. Herbert
Stevens, 252; General MacArthur, 246;
Chateau de Clos Vougeot, 235; Belle
Siebrecht, 235; Red Letter Day, 221;
Lady Hillingdon, 187; Maman Cochet
(White), 185.
EXPRESS EMBARGO UFTED.
Improved operating conditions have
«nabled the American Railway Express
Co. to remove the limitations on the size
of packages, restrictions which seriously
hampered some nurserymen's shipments.
Tho American Railway Express Co.
announced November 11 that it had re-
moved its embargo on single pieces of
express matter weighing 200 pounds or
over, which has been in effect since
April 5. Nurserymen were allowed to
ship single pieces to the weight of 300
pounds.
The embargo was placed at that time
on the express traffic throughout the
eastern and central states and later
throughout the country because of the
congestion of traffic and difficult operat-
ing conditions. Exceptions were made
only in the case of shipments needed in
special emergencies.
LABURNUM IN NEW JERSEY.
Will Cytisus Laburnum bloom in New
Jersey? E. C. M.— N. J.
There is no reason why laburnums
should not succeed in New Jersey. I
have seen fine plants in nurseries of
that state. Several hundred miles far-
ther north we are able to grow and
flower them. In 1919 they were magnifi-
cent. In 1920, following the severe
winter, they bloomed somewhat more
sparsely, but we never have any trouble
with the wood winter-killing. Give the
plants a good, deep soil which holds the
moisture well. C. W.
BLUE SPRUCE FROM SEED.
Would you please give me some in-
formation concerning the growing of
blue spruce from seed in Pennsylvania t
V. R.— Pa.
Procure the seed in the fall; keep it
in a cool place over winter and sow
in the spring — about April 25 in your
latitude — either in a prepared bed out-
doors or, better still, in a coldframe.
Prepare the soil carefully. A soil com-
posed of equal parts of leaf-mold and
loam is good. Rake out all sticks,
stones and other debris and make a
smooth surface. Then sow your seed
broadcast and use a fine wire screen
and dust a light covering of compost
ov.er all. It is a good idea to water the
bed after sowing and before screening
the soil over the seed. Use a watering-
can with a rose for watering. A cover-
ing of half-decayed leaves can be spread
over the bed and left on until the seed-
lings germinate. Cloth covers might
well be placed on the beds and tacked
around at the sides to prevent birds
from scratching in the frame. From
time to time carefully water the beds or
remove the cloth cover during showery
weather.
After the seedlings germinate and
through the first season you should keep
lath shades over them. These can be

cover a root of our peonies and beg you
to tell us if tliere is any remedy for this
disease. Tliesc peonies have been doing
well until aflfecte<l with the disease. We
shall appreciate an early answer, be-
cause we are just resetting our peonies.
C. G.— la.
The ))cony disease is ])robal)ly due to
using fresh horse manure so freely that
it has come in contact with the roots.
We notice the inquirer is resetting these
peonies; if so, all of those affected poi
tioiis should be cut away and the tubers
should be planted in rich new soil where
manure has not been recently intro-
duced and on ground not previously oc-

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

A cold wave struck hero November
11 and at tlie present writing is still
with us, delaying shipping to some ex-
tent. However, there is usually at least
two weeks of Indian summer in this
section, which will afford opportunity to
prepare for the winter.
George Martin, who for a number of
years was in partnership with his
brother, J. F. Martin, has launched out
for himself and intends to grow peren-
nials as a specialty. Mr. Martin has
about fifteen acres under cultivation.
Mark Welch, grower of a general line
of nursery stock, is having an excep-
tionally heavy demand this fall. Mr.
Welch docs a wholesale business only.
J. J. Hedderman, aster and sweet pea
grower, intends to grow perennials dur-
ing the coming season.
Carl Ilagenburgcr, at West Mentor,
has an extra fine lot of potted plants
coming on for the lioli<lay trade.
.John Mcrkle, in speaking of the coal
situation, said there is a decided dififer-
onco between the cost of growing flow-
ers nowadays and formerly. A few
years ago the coal bill was $1,100; now
it is $3,700 for tlic same quantity.
James B. Kuight, Willoughby, O., has
recently purchased more land.
The demand among local growers for
perennials this fall surpasses that of all
previous years. This is largely due to
ilartin Kohankie's withdrawal from
business, as he was the largest grower in
this section. His trade is going to some
of the smaller nurseries. T. J. M.

The Florists' Review
NOVEMBSB 18. 1920
DENVER, COLO.
The Market.
There was not much change in tho
market during the week ending Novem-
ber 13. Eoses are none too plentiful,
owing, no doubt, to the heavy pinching
for the holidays. Carnations remain
about the same. Chrysanthemums are
fairly good, but are going fast and it
looks as though there would be few
left for Thanksgiving. Sweet peas are
of good quality, but a little scarce. The
first Paper Whites are beginning to ar-
rive.
Various Notes.
The second meeting of Denver Flo-
rists was held with the Denver Wholesale
Florists Co., November 5. After the
reading of the minutes of the previous
meeting, J. Roberts, chairman, gave the
committee 's report, saying that it would
not be advisable to hold a ' ' Say It with
Flowers" week this year, with so short
a time for preparation. By unanimous
vote the temporary officers and com-
mittees were made permanent and H. A.
Clausen was chosen vice-president. The
feeling seemed to prevail that an elab-
orate organization was unnecessary and
that it should be entirely for business
for the present, with no regular meet-
ings. An assessment for both growers
and retailers was agreed upon that
would put at the disposal of the adver-
tising committee about $400 monthly.
The Boldt-Lundy House of Flowers
had an especially attractive window last
week, with novelty baskets set off by
large vases of alternate Yellow and
White Turner mums.
The America Flower Shop had a dis-
play of Parisienne window baskets.
Mr. Braun, of Cheyenne, Wyo., also
Mr. Flohr and John Krauss, a former
Denver grower, from Washington, were
visitors last week. R. E. H.

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

OUR EXPENSE
The KROESCHELL has proven its worth in many of the large establishments in
this country. It has frequently been selected by the mostfcareful bayers in
competition with all other types of boilers. Its efficiency and capacity are com-
pletely beyond any other boiler.
KROESCHELL BOILERS have no bulky, soot accumu-
lating surfaces— you avoid the disagreeable work and
trouble indispensable to cleaning boilers with compli-
cated and tortuous back and forth passages.
The superiority of our boilers has resulted in the removal and abolishmeat of
hundreds of cast iron sectional boilers— in every instance KROESCHELL BOILSRS
give more heat with the same piping with less fuel.

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

W. D. M.— Wis.
Although the boiler is nearly three
times as large as is necessary to heat the
proposed greenhouse, it may be used
with a fair degree of fuel economy if
careful attention is given to the firing.
I should suggest the use of two 2M.'-
inch flow pipes, running one on the wall
of the residence just below the gutter
of the greenhouse, and the other on
the purlin posts near the glass about
halfway between the gutter and the
ridge on the south slope of the house.

COAL?— Save It with this!

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

bench and the other three in the center
■walk, I judge that the temperature near
the north side might be 60 or 65 degrees,
while close to the glass on the south side
it would not be more than 40 and per-
haps as low as 32 degrees in severe
weather. The bench along the south
wall appears to be about five feet wide
and is only eight inches from the ground.
I should advise excavating under this
bench so that the ground would be
sixteen inches from the bottom of the
bench, using five of the returns as an
under-bench coil and placing only four
in the other coil. There should be an
opening three or four inches wide be-
tween the outer edge of the benches and
the walls.
Miter the east end of each coil to
provide for the expansion of the pipes.
Cast-iron headers may be used for the
coils, or they may be built up of tees
and short nipples, using three tees, 2%-
inch, 2-inch and IVo-inch, respectively,
with 1%-inch side openings and a 1%-
inch ell to receive the pipe forming the
south line in each of the coils. The
headers at the other end of the coils,
should be built up in the same manner
and the main returns connecting the
coils with the heater should also be 2%-
inch. These may be joined into one
3-inch.

are not much of an attraction. Amer-
ican Beauties are nearly all of the
shorter grades and move more slowly.
Greens of all kinds are plentiful. The
demand for early shipments of boxwood
is in evidence. Many prefer to get
their stock in and take care of it rather
than take a chance on the later ship-
ments, should the weather turn wet and
cold in the south. Some fine ground

Lets Look This Production Situation
Square in the Face!
This year, many of you had plenty
of rain, and a ttood cut. Stock didn't
all bring top-notcii prices, but it
cleaned up fairly well, and made a
good summer season.
But suppose tliere had been two.
three or four weeks with no rain,
in midsummer, causing your crops
practically to fail?
Then 'twould be a very different
story.
And yet, you know from past exper-
ience (which you can verify from
Weather Department rain records)
that the chances are nine to one,
you won't get enough rain at the
right times next season.
And you know how, in any modern
business, "production" is planned
for, and safeguarded" against all
possible interruptions.
Isn't it good .sound business sense,
then, for you at least to find out how-
much it would cost to remove the
dry weather risk forever from your
business?
.lust fill in this blank, and mail it to
us, and we'll quote you exact price
on "The Skinner System," with the
wonderful "Silver Stream" nozzle
that has revolutionized overhead

Chrysanthemuin
Over 750 beautiful white mums, not small pompons but good big
blooms— all on one plant— from one stalk. As less than half of the
blooms can be seen in the picture, the beauty of this plant can only be
imagined.
Mr, Donald McNaughton, Superintendent, grew this remarkable
prize-winning plant in the Foley Greenhouse of E. S. Moore, of Lake
Forest, 111, This is the beautiful white mum, Elmer Smith's produc-
tion, which won the Foley Prize at the mum show a few years ago
and was named after Philip Foley's youngest daughter by Elmer Smith.
Foley Greenhouses
are so thoroughly well built — the Foley Heating System is so
ample-i-and so dependable, that growers can be sure of sat-
isfactory results from their efforts, no matter whether the
dowers be the delicate orchid or the hardy mum. It pays
to be sure your house is right and the simple way to
have it right is to have it Foley built and heated.

The Market.
Magnificent chrysanthemums are be-
ing sold in Columbus. The Michigan-
Ohio State football game, November 6,
stimulated the sale of them and the
florists had an exceptional day. Pom-
pons hold a place next to chrysanthe-
mums and roses and carnations are do-
ing well. Sweet peas are slow.
Most of the bulbs for fall planting
have been received.
Various Notes.
Local florists sent exhibitions to the
chrysanthemum show which was staged
in conjunction with the horticultural
show of the Ohio State University, No-
vember 11 to 13. The mums were given
to patrons of the show on the closing
evening.
The Fifth Avenue Floral Co. has had
such a large supply of chrysanthemums
that it has been able to supply whole-

retail for $1.

VITAPLASTIC GLAZING COMPOUND is a gum and asbestos product that clings
to the side bar as well as the glass and forms a perfect union, remaining in a plastic con-
dition, never getting any harder than tough rubber.
VITAPLASTIC expands and contracts with the expansion and contraction of your
greenhouse, in this way sealing your greenhouse and not permitting the heat to evaporate,
and also prevents the melting snow from seeping in through loose lights.

THE TEST OF TIME
|| MANY HOUSES look good on paper and when they are new, but not all stand the only real test: THE TEST OF TIME. You
-^ will find among the "old-timers" many Dietsch houses that have stood this test and been found not wanting. DIetsch houses are
designed and built on correct, scientific and practical principles. It is not our aim to meet our competitors' prices, for that would be
inconsistent with good materials. To the grower who does not thoroughly investigate and compare, our proposition does not appeal.
m THIS IS NOT THE TIME to build greenhouses, but it is a good Ume to think about it. Dietsch construction has stood the test of
-'' years. Not q^ily are Dietsch houses among the oldest standing today, but you will find each house an Improvement over the last.
Our construction is advancing with the times. We advocate nothing that has not proved its value. There will be better houses than
we are now building, and they will be built by us.
Ul WHEN PLANNING YOUR NEW HOUSES, it will pay you to investigate Dietsch greenhouse materials and methods of construe.
-" tion. We build most efficient and durable houses at moderate cost. Construction of wood exclusively or wood and iron combined,
using each where it will best serve its purpose.

Hundreds of satisfied users from coast to coast.
Asbestos
Black Glaizing Cement
A PRACTICAL glazing material made for application in a
practical manner. No clumsy, slow working tools necessary
— simply a putty bulber or two and a filling gun to load
same — furnished free to users.
Ajax Black Glazing Cement has been used throughout the country for
several years with excellent results. To prospective purchasers we can give
names of satisfied users in every greenhouse center — over a hundred names in
Chicago locality alone.
Not Affected by Extreme Heat or Cold
Our product is a cement-like composition of Asbestos Fibres, and heavy, semi-drying
hydro-carbon oils. Its exceptionally long life is due to the fact that it never thoroughly
hardens like old fashioned white putty. The outside surface (which is exposed to the oxygen
of the air) forms a resilient tough skin, below which the material remains soft and plastic.
Because of this we guarantee that the coldest weather will not cause it to become brittle
or pull away. On the other hand our product is warranted not to sag or run in extremely hot
weather due to its being inter-laced with the Asbestos Fibres.
As Ajax Black Glazing Cement never thoroughly hardens,' glass glazed with it can
be shifted when desired without the loss of breakage that so often results when hard drying
white putties are used.
FREE OFFER
To facilitate the application of
our product we furnish the fol-
lowing apparatus free of charge :
AVith Each Barrel
2 Bulbers.
1 Gun for filling buibers
With Each Half -Barrel
1 Bulber
1 Gun for filling bulber
Easily applied with a bulber. No clumsy tools oecessary.
Lower Cost than White Putty
Compared with the old fashioned White Lead putties, Ajax Black
Glazing Cement not only lasts years longer, but is a great deal lower in initial
cost.
One gallon is sufficient to glaze 500 lineal feet of sash.

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

You can't set anything better no matter how much
more you pay. The ingredients are of the purest;
weighs but 10 pounds to the gallon.
With the scsu-city of coal and its high prices, the
careful applicatioo of Asbestfalt will more than pay

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

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

and here they are
6 master-grower houses of the Joy Floral Co., Nashville,
Tenn., that will stand the most searching scrutiny— the
most critical comparijson. You know the construction—
the AGMCO 36-foot ^t^el frame— the type that made the
AGMCO the standard by which to measure greenhouse
excellence.
To appreciate ihe real merits of these houses, you should
see them, but a close study of this illustration will reveal
to you the clean-cut appearance of AGMCO work and
the mathematical exactness of construction.
Five of these houses are 500 feet long and one 350
feet long.
What length shall we figure yours?

FORMOSUM LILIES throw more flowers than any other variety. Plant as late as January
for Decoration Day. Grow cool; need no forcing. Put your Giganteum in storage, as the new
crop is very short. If you desire to take advantage of this low offer on FORMOSUM, we will
place same in storage and deliver to you as wanted. FORMOSUM do well when planted as late
as May. The fact that Giganteum are so scarce will prove this to be a good purchase.

All advance orders have been filled. We can now accept additional orders and ship immediately.
Lilies started cool, with good root action, can be forced harder than late planted stock. Write us

CYCLAMEN
Why cyclamen purchased from us will give
entire satisfaction and make you the most money:
Our Shipping Facilities:
Exceptional facilities for southern and southwest points.
Express Office in our packing room insures less rough handling.
Main lines New York Central Lines and Pennsylvania for east and
west shipments, and C. & E. I. and Illinois Central for north and
south shipments.
Plants Now Coming Into Bloom Strong.
Large stock to select from; first come, first choice.
The most discriminating buyers are inspecting, buy-
ing our stock and giving us repeat orders.
(We have the varieties and the quality.)
NO PACKING CHARGE.
What our customers say about our quality and packing:
From North Carolina:
"It is with great pleasure and satisfaction to report to you that.the shipment of cyclamen reached me in first-
class condition. I give you full credit for the way you packed the shipment. That's tlie way to pack plants,
and not just slap them in like so many shippers are doing nowadays. Everyone seems to be mighty anxious to
sell goods and get the money, but don't give a rap how goods reach the buyer. Enclosed find check for
additional order."
From Arizona:
"Dupl'cate our order of the 24th; did not think shipment could be made this far."
"Keceived 400 cyclamen from the east and they can't touch your:" '
"Cyclamen arrived; well pleased with quality and they were packed fine."
"Enclosed find check for $:^tiO.0O; eyes arrived in fine shape and we are well pleased with the stock."
Not the cheapest that are offered, because quality stock cannot be
had cheap. Nor the highest prices, because we have a large quan-
tity and can afford to share profits with you; just the best that
can be had for thetmoney.

WHO STANDS THE
SHIPPING LOSS?
Constantly altercations arise between buyer and seller as to who is to
blame for mishaps in delivery and who is to sta^id the loss so incurred.
Clearer comprehension of the legal view of the relations of the two will
obviate many misunderstandings.
VERY year there are hun-
dreds, perhaps thousands,
of controversies between
members of tlie florists',
seed and nursery trades
over shipments made in the
normal course of business.
The parties involved there-
in are reputable — we are
not concerned here with
any who are not — and make their claims
in good faith. This situation is not pe-
culiar to this line of business; it is
common to every industry. Most of the
disputes are needless and result in noth-
ing but bad feeling; they have no basis
for legal action, for they arc the result
of ignorance or misconception of the
principles laid down by the
law in such matters. Knowl-
edge of these legal prin-
ciples will aid every florist
in the transaction of his
business. He will then
know when he has basis for
complaint and when the
responsibility rests with
him. He will avoid need-
less controversies and con-
sequent ill feeling. He will
facilitate his own business
and maintain amicable rela-
tions with those with whom
he deals. He will also, per-
haps, save the expense of
hiring a lawyer to tell him
he has no case. A good deal,
indeed, may be gained by a
knowledge of the legal prin-
ciples involved in makin};
shipments and ridding one-
self of sonic jirevalent mis-
conceptions.
Delivery.
Perhaps one of the most
common misconceptions is
that goods shipped by the
seller to the buyer are not
"delivered" to the buyer
until they have arrived at
their destination. This is
true only where the seller
has agreed to deliver them at the <les-
tination, or where he has reserved title
by shipping under an order bill of lad-
ing not transferred to the buj'er until
after completion of the transportation.
Primarily it is ])resumed that goods
are intended to be delivered wherever
they happen to be at the time of sale.
So, exce]>t for understanding to the
contrary, all sales would be presumed to
be on the "cash and carry" basis,
whether a retail sale of a plant or a
wholesale transaction lietween parties

living jn different cities or different
countries.
To some extent this presumption has
been destroyed by trade customs. So
the retail florist who maintains no de-
livery system and who has not agreed
to deliver at the customer 's residence
or place of business, is not bound to
make delivery at any place other than
the store where the goods sold happen to
be when sold. But where the florist has
led the public generally to suppose that
deliveries will be made elsewhere, under-
standing that the customer may desig-
THE LEGAL VIEW
Whether a shipment is an express
parcel or a carload of freight, whether
it is of plants, bulbs, seeds or trees, the
law regarding the responsibility of
buyer, seller and carrier is explicit.
Its basic principle is: "A delivery of
goods by the seller to the carrier des-
ignated by the purchaser, is a delivery
to the purchaser, the carrier becoming
the agent of the buyer. ' Its interpre-
tations are equally definite, as explained
by a legal writer on this page.
trade usage, it will be presumed in the
ordinary case to have been understood
that the seller would properly pack and
ship the goods for the buyer.
But now comes the important point
to be kept in mind: Ordinarily, the
railway company, or other carrier of a
shipment, is to be regarded as the rep-
resentative of the buyer, and not the
representative of the seller. The fol-
lowing statement of the law can prob-
ably be supported by citation of an
apj)ellate court decision in every state
in the union:
"Ordinarily a delivery of goods by
the seller to the carrier designated by
the purchaser, or to one usually em-
ployed in the transportation of goods
from the place of the seller
to thac of the purchaser, is
a delivery to the purchaser,
the carrier becoming the
agent of the buyer. The de-
livery should be of goods
of the proper quality and in
the proi)er quantity. The
fact that the purchaser has
a right of inspection and ap-
proval on receipt does not
change the rule. Delivery
to a carrier is not a de-
livery to the buyer if the
seller is bound to deliver
at the buyer's residence or
place of business, the car-
rier in such case being the
agent of the seller. * * *
Law's View.
nate any reasonable place within the
florist 's usual delivery limits will be in-
ferred.
Trade Usage.
And now it is no longer understood
that a buyer of goods to be shipped
to him from another point by the seller
is to go to the seller's place of business,
or send some one there, to get the goods
and ship them, although nothing may
lla^•e been specifically said concerning
dcliverv. In accordance with uiiivcisal
"The delivery to carrier
must be such a transfer of
jiossession as will remove
the goods wholly from the
dominion of the seller, and
such as to entitle the pur-
chaser to demand the goods
of the carrier; consequently
it is not a delivery to the
buyer if the seller reserves
the right of disposal of the
yjoods, by consigning them
to his own order, or by tak-
ing the bill of lading in his
own name ami rotaiiiing the siinie. or
making the doli\erv of the bill of lading
i-onditi(inal on the payment of the price.
It', however, the bill of lading, although
taken out in the name of another, is
ilulv indorsed and tendered to the buver,
the delivery is good." (.35 Cyc. 193".)
Thus it will be seen that the ordinary
contract for a sale of goods to be shipped
direct to the buyer, nothing being said
as to where delivery is to be made, is
substantially the same thing as a con-
tract specifying that delivery is to be

lipcanse it fends to set at rest any chanee
(if (jiiil)blo on tlie part of the buyer that
lie was entitled to delivery at the des-
tination of tlic shipment.
IJiit iu order to constitute delivery to
the l)uy(r by deliverin}; to the rail-
way or express company, certain reason-
able conditions must be observed by the
seller. The sliiiiiiient must be made in
such circumstances as to make it fair
that the buyer hIiouUI accept it, so far
as the seller is concerned. For example,
if A has sold H a thousand plants to be
sent by freijjlit or exjiress, a mere set -
tiiifj down ot' tliat many phints on the
railway or express company's jiremises.
without jiroperly niarkint; the shipment
or haviiif; it projxTly billed, would not
operate as a constructive delivery to the
buyer. Nor would shijtment of plants
unreasonably exposed to breakage or
freezintj by reason of failure to pack
them in tlie manner usual in making;-
sui'h shipments, resulting in their beinji
■lamaKcd, he treated as a delivery to the
buyer.
Buyer's Risk.
I'"'iiim what h.'iH been said it follows
tiiat where goods are sold f. o. b. place
of shipment, or without any understand-
ing as to whether delivery is to be f. o.
b. there or the destination, the goods
are at the buyer's risk when they have
heen j)roperly put in transit by the
seller. That they may be lost or dam-
aged ill transit, without any fault of
tlie scdler, does not affect his right to
recover the agree<l ]iurchase jirice. If
the buyer h;is any remedy he must en-
force it against the railway or express
company.
On the othci- han.l, if the seller has
.agreed to deliver f. o. b. destination, or
has reserved title to the shijuneut, h(^
bears the risks of transjiortation so far
as the buyer is concerned.
Ifeference to a few court decisions will
serve to give useful information con-
cerning the seller's rights and duties
to the buyer when he acts as the lat
ter's representative in arranging for
f ransjMirtation of goods. At the saiix-
time ue believe that the discussion will
-^erve to emphasize the jiractical value
of getting as explicit instructions as is
feasible from the buyer concerning rout-
ing, etc.
Practice Upheld.
In the case of Southern Nursery Co.
\ >. Winfield Nursery Co., 89 Kansas
Keports .'il'L', it appeared that plaintiff
shijified a carload ut' stock to dcfemlant.
Defendant refused to pay the full
agreed purchase jirice, because the stock
had been dam.'iged in tiansit, partly re-
lying on the fact that, in making the
-hipment, ]daintiff seller released the
\aluation of the shijimeiit to .". cents per
pound, thereby making .a dilTerence of
.'}il..304 betwei^n the actu.al value of the
shipment .'iiid thi> released lesser v.alua
fion. The Kansas 8ui>reine court (h
cided the ca.se in the seller's favor, mi
the ground that it acted reasonably and
in accordance with general custom in
agreeing to a reduced valuation to se-
cure a lower freight rate. The court, vr
marked that there was no doubt about
its being the law that "the seller is
authorized, in the absence of sjiecial in-
structions, to ship according to the usual
.and ordinarv method and that he dis
charges his duty to the buyer when he
does so. "
"III this case," added the court,
"there is no disjnite that nursery stock
is to be sliii>ped at a valuation of .'!
cents ])er pound in order to obtain a
lower freight rate, under a classification
jiermitfing it, unless jiositive instruc-
tions to the contrary are given. The
seller's authority, therefore, extemls no
further than to take a bill of lading of
the kind usual to such slii[iment, if con-
tracts of that character may lawfully be
made. ' '
Same as Initial Carrier.
Both reason and law appear to j'ut a
-.lii[i])iiig seller on the same plane as an
initial carrier who receives a shipment
destined to a point on a foreign rail-
road. The law in the latter class of
cases is .as follows:
"The general rule is that, when no
special instructions .are given and as-
sented to as to routes, the initial carrier
may select the route or use that com-
monly employed by it to the jioint of
destinatijin nanuMl, and liie absence of
Npecial instructions given and acceded
to amounts to an assent that the car-
I'ier 's usual course of business may be
followed, and that it may design.ate the
route as its convenience may suggest.
This provision, b(>ing thus inserted in thi?
contract by law, is as unassailable by
parol I proof of veibal understandings
tending to v.aiy or contradict a. written
contract] as any of the express terms of
the contract. However, the carrier's
right in this regard is not an absolute
or inalienable one, and it may be waived
or surrendered by .an agreement sub-
sequently entered into.
"Furthermore, the rule stated in the
preceding section is subject to the im-
jxirfant limitation that the carrier in
selecting the route must have due re-
gard to the rights and inturests of the
shipper and must exercise its option of
selecting a route so that it will not work
to the disadvantage of the shipper, un
less under circumstances which require
it." (10 Corpus Juris, 83, 84. ^
Care Recttiired.
Another decision as to an initial car-
rier's liability, which seems to be sub-
ject to fair application to a shipping
seller, is one by the United States Su-
preme court, holding that if it is known
to a carrier that a shipment will be
more liable to loss or injury on one
route than on another, he must select the
safer route. The same is true of the
holding by one of the Texas Courts of
Civil Appeals, that although a carrier
was entitled to choose the route, it could
not choose a route known to be so
obstructed that delivery could not be
made over it, where another practicable
route was open. And it is also true of
the court holdings that if the carrier
knows that sending the shipment over
.'I certain route will cause unusual de-
lay, when there is a more direct and
(|uicker route, the carrier must obtain
authority from the shipper before send-
ing over the slower route; and that if
the carrier adopts a mode of transporta-
tion which involves the payment of a
higher rate of freight than another, it
may show that it asked for and obtained
direction from the shipper or consignee
to employ the more expensive mode, or
that becau.se of its inability to procure
the means of shipment by the cheaper
method it was reasonably necessary in
view of the exigencies of the case.

was held at Menipliia, Tenn., Weilnesday
:nul Thursday, November 17 and 18.
The election of officers, Iield Wednesday

Nashville.

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

President '.s Address.
In his address I'resident .McNutt
touched upon some i)reseiit pniblems of
tlie trade. He said:
"We liope to solve s('\ii;il dillicuit
problems at tliis meeting, one (^f which
is publicity. J feel sure that there i^
no better way than to tie up in some
way with tlie national publicity com-
mittee and 'Say It with Flowers' to the
limit.
"The coal situation is a most impor-
tant one for the growers. The ones
who did not buy their supply of coal
before government control censed are
having to pay two or three times the
price of last season. It behooves all of
lis to use every menus to save coal. The
speaker has recently installed a shaker
grate bar that is iiroving to be a great
cnal saver over the old-style grate I>ar.
"Wliethei- or not you believe in using
artificial tlowers, I think our supi>ly
houses deserxe ;t great denl of credit for
pushing this end of their line. Although
the si)eaker docs /lot lielie\«' h\ using
them when yon li;i\t' tlie real, it is be-
yond dis[)ute that they saved the day
when the real tlowers could luit be liad.
I will l(\-ive this subject for your discus-
sion, as yon will have two ))npers on this
subiect, which I n'n ^ure will jirove help-
ful.'
"We, as mciulicr< nf the Tennessee

these men to rejjrcsent this stnte, noth-
ing would give the speaker nuire j)leas

dent that he is entitled to a directorship
of tlie S. A. F. This we cnji do by get-

present.
Florists' Exhibits.
Adjournment was made at 10:30 to
permit the iiisjicction of the flower
exhibition, which filled the entire sixth
floor of the building. Exhibits were
sent in by out-of-town florists, although
the Memphis members furnished the
majority of the blooms. They also fur-
nished display space free to outside mem-
bers wishing to enter a display. Roses,
chrysanthemums and carnations were
much in evidence.
All the blooms and plants were loaded
into trucks Thursday afternoon, Novem-
ber 18, after the exhibition, and dis-
tributed as a gift from the association
among the various hospitals of Memphis.
This act of gQnerosity was much ap-
preciated by the public.
Banquet.
Shortly after 1:00 p. m. the florists
assembled for a trip to the greenhouses
of Memphis and the city parks. The
entire afternoon was spent in this way,
and the local greenhouse methods were
studied with much interest by visiting
florists.
Upon their return from the tour of in-
spection, the delegates found an appetiz-
ing supper awaiting them at the Hotel
Chisca. The banquet started at 6:30 and
lasted until 8 o'clock. Several hundred
guests were present. Music and brief
talks by various florists followed and a
merry-making party was formed to
attend the Orpheum theater.
To judge from the expressions of
prominent delegates, the convention was
the most successful in the history of the
association. There was something doing
every minute of the time, from the mo-
ment the meeting was called to order

MECHANICAL BEFBIGEBATION.
Safe Medium for Florists.
There are several refrigerating me-
diums; namely, ammonia, sulphur diox-
ide and carbonic gas. On account of
its absolute safety, combined with its
high efficiency, carbonic gas is the most
suitable for the florist.
Carbonic anhydride, commonly called
carbonic gas, is absolutely neutral to-
wards plant life, human life, food prod-
ucts and all materials. This same gas
is used for carbonating beverages and
is used in connection with all soda foun-
tains. It is the cheapest refrigerant
and is sold in all parts of the world.
Carbonic gas is odorless, nonexplosive
and noninflammable. It cannot become
a source of danger to human, plant or
animal life. Unlike other refrigerants,
it does not become a menace in time of
fire; quite to the contrary, it is a fire
extinguisher.
Refrigeration is directly the opposite
of heating. It is utilized for the absorp-
tion of heat. Mechanical refrigeration
is the process of reducing or keeping the
temperature of a body or substance
below the temperature of the atmosphere
without the use of ice. In order to re-
duce such temperature, it is necessary
to employ a medium of lower tempera-
ture which will absorb the heat.
Not Complicated.
To many it may seem tliat mecliuiiical
refrigerating ajiparatus is a rather com-
plicated combination of macliinery.
This, however, is not the case. With a
well designed modern equipment there
are only two mechanical units neces-
sary, the conijiressor and the power unit,
which may either l)e electrical or steam
driven.
The j)laiit consists of compressor,
motor and carbonic anhydride conden-
ser. The cooling medium is transmitted
through the piping coils which are placed
in the upper part of the refrigerator anil
a i>ortion of these pipe coils are placed
in the brine tank, also in tlio upper jiart
of tlie refrigerator. The tank of brine
maintains tlie temperature when the re-
frigerating machinery is not in ojiera-

tion. It will surely be of interest to
explain the cycle of operation.
Cycle of Operation.
The cycle of operation of refrigera-
tion is the compression, liquefaction and
evaporation of the carbonic anhydride.
The refrigerating plant comprises three
parts:
1. A compressor in which gas is com-
pressed.
2. A condenser in which warm com-
pressed gas imparts its heat to cold
water and liquefies.
3. Expansion coils in which the liquid
carbonic anhydride expands into its
original gaseous state, thereby absorb-
ing heat and performing the refrigerat-
ing work.
In order to make the operation con-
tinuous, the three parts are connected,
the charge of carbonic anhydride origi-
nally put into the machine being used
over and over, going progressively
though the process of comjiression, con-
densation and evaporation. Thus only
a small quantity of gas is required to
replace any losses.
Bating of Machines.
Refrigerating machines are rated in
the tons of refrigeration produced if
operated continuously for twenty-four
hours. One ton of refrigeration is the
amount of cooling produced by the melt-
ing of one ton of ice. This is equivalent
to 288,000 British thermal units.
It is not necessary to operate the
compressor in a refrigerating plant
twenty-four hours per day, as a com-
pressor of good capacity ))erforms the
work during a shorter period of time.
The power required to operate the
compressor varies from approximately
one to one and three-fourths horsepower
per ton of refrigeration, depending upon
the size of compressor, temperature of
condenser water and work to be done.
Refrigerating machines may be operated
by any available power; namely, steam
engine, electric motor, gas f^ngine, etc.
Usually Less Expensive.
Mechanical refrigeration is far more
economical than the use of ice. In prac-
tically every case where the refrigerat-
ing space amounts to 500 cubic feet <ir
more, it is cheaper than ice. The follow-
ing figures may be relied upon to deter-
mine the cost of operation. From tliis
table anv florist can estimate the cost
of operating a refrigerating machine.
For example: A 4-ton machine requires
G kilowatts, at a cost of 3 cents per
kilbwatt hour. It will cost 18 cents per
kilowatt hour to operate this plant.
To the figures stated must be added the
cost of water, oil, etc., which is a small
item :

As stated before, absolute temperature
control may be insured at any point de-
sired. The following temperature range,
however, is recommended:
Ferns and greens Freezing for storage.
Carnations 48 to 50 degrees.
Hoses 44 to 50 degrees.
Orchids 50 to 55 degrees.

me,
EEVIOUS to the war there
Pwere practically not over
five export houses in Yo-
kohama. Today there are
k about fifty doing business
\^J^ with foreign countries sell-
ing Japanese merchandise.
If you are not acquainted
with Japanese business
methods, you might imag-
as I did previous to my visit,
that you could go to any manufac-
turer and get full supplies of what
you want. But business is conducted
in an entirely different manner than it
is in America. It is done on an ex-
ceedingly small scale. In order to do
business you depend upon the exporter,
who will submit samples and then
gather up the merchandise from place to
place and in this way accumulate your
requirements. The Japanese do not
hustle as we do. They take their time
and aim for efficiency.
The love of flowers is one of the most
distinctive features of the Japanese
people's living and, indeed, existence
without them would be monotonous and
dreary. Nature must have known this,
for in the far-eastern land, which lies
like a green and flower-bedecked .iewel
in a wide sea, there are flowers year in
and year out, which must have fostered
the love of them in the hearts of the
race. At any rate, all flowers in Japan,
but more particularly the first flowers of
each season, are regarded
with solemn and most seri-
ous reverence. There are
many flower stores in Japan.
In the city of Tokyo there
are about 700. Their busi-
ness is done on a snrall scale
in comparison with our busi-
ness, as flowers are cheap
and easily cultivated. Large
quantities are grown and
the demand is always equal
to the supply, as every
Japanese home and oflSce is
always decorated with some
sort of flower, artistically
arranged. The art of ar-
ranging flowers is taught in
the public schools and other
institutions where one can
receive education in flower
decoration.
Each Month's Flower.
You will often see a small
twig arranged in a vase as
attractively as many of our
people will arrange flowers
that are full of fragrance
and color. This is proof of
their love of flowers. Every
month has a special flower
which the Japanese worship
and that flower is in tlicir
dwellings during the month.
Lily bulbs are produced in
Japan much as we produce
gladiolus corms. The seed
bulbs are obtained from the
large bulbs on the side of
the plant stalk in the form
of soft bulbs. In harvesting

the export crop, each bulb is dug in-
(li\i(lually. The soil is ronioved by hand;
the stalk is removed from the bulb by
scissors. The bulbs are taken off, cleaned
iiiul sorted according to size and re-
planted during the months of November
and December in beds, about three
inches apart and in rows about a foot
and a half apart.
In the early fall, when the stalk turns
yellow, the bulbs are dug again by hand,
reselected according to size and planted
in beds according to the size in the
same months as the previous year, but
in different soil and sometimes in a dif-
ferent locality. After this method is
continued for two years the larger bulbs
are then reselected and planted in a
bed about eight inches apart and about
two feet apart in the rows. This is
usually the export bed, mearing that
the bulbs will develop into export size.
Packing Bulbs.
About August the bulbs are dug, each
bulb individually, cleaned, put into a
box of about 150 bulbs per box and
shipped to Yokohama or Tokyo. There
the roots are removed by women and the
soil is taken from between the scales
and then they are regraded according to

size, and packed in export cases in steri- ■
lized soil for shipping to America. To
develoji an export size bulb takes
about three years, sometimes longer.
Occasionally some bulbs will develop to
an export size in about two years.
If a bulb is found in the fields show-
ing any signs of disease, the bulb is re-
moved early and lime is spread where
the bulb has been dug out. Farmers
are particular not to propagate from
bulbs that have been dug near the dis-
eased bulbs. Before packing, an exami-
nation is made by a government official
to detect any sign of disease in the
bulbs. If disease is found the govern-
ment official will make the shipper de-
stroy the bulbs and will not give a cer-
tificate of inspection, which every case
must have before a permit is given to
ship the bulbs.
The bulbs are produced on a small
scale. About 3,000 farmers are engaged
in the production of lily bulbs. They
each produce from 3,000 to 20,000 bulbs.
Before the war the output of lily bulbs
was about 20,000,000. England has held
an embargo on the importation of lily
hulbs into the country for about four
j'ears, which has caused considerable
loss to the Japanese lily growers.
America put on an embargo for one
year, which caused more loss to the lily
exporters. When the war was over the
demand for lily bulbs was heavy and
the crop, which formerly was estimated
between 20,000,000 and 25,-
000,000, was reduced t o
hardly over 7,000,000. This
year the crop is estimated
to be 3,500,000, which shows
quite a reduction from the
])rn-\var years, and it will
take another three years be-
fore the quantity of lily
bulbs will be increased to
normal crop conditions.
According to figures and
according to a catalogue is-
sued in the year 1914, 7 to
19 lily bulbs were sold at
$18 per case, 8 to 10 bulbs
were sold at $23 per case
and 9 to 10 at $22 per case,
wliich shows that the pres-
ent prices on lily bulbs
have increased a little more
than 100 per cent since be-
foro the war.
Comparing Prices.
In comparing lily bulb
prices to Dutch bulb prices,
when one studies them care-
fully, he will note that some
of the Dutch bulbs have ad-
vanced from 300 to 500 per
cent and none less than 100
jier cent. i?o in comparison,
the Dutch bulb growers
li.Mve increased their prices
f;ir in advnnco of tlic .Tapa-
jiose growers, yet tliey suf-
fered no enilinrgo against
exporting bulbs to America.
In order to maintain the
high prices, a trust waa
formed, which placed a

bulbs. According to reports that wo
liavo lieard rocpiitly, 1 believe that some
of the exjiortcrs luuc made more than
100 per cent on their Dutch bulbs. The
grower, who furnishes llie bulbs to the
exporter, does not rejij^ the benefit in
comparison with the exporter.
There are many risks attached to the
importing of lily bulbs from Japan.
First, payment must he made four to five
months before the bulbs are delivered;
second, they usually travel at the end
of the season and sometimes come in
contact with cold weather, which causes
the bulbs to freeze, and third, ship-
ments may be held up on the Pacific
coast, where it is warm, and there they
sprout. The importer of lily bulbs takes
all these chances and suffers all these
losses and there is never a year that a
few cars are not spoiled during the sea-
son. The florist buys his Dutch bulbs
f. o. b. packing shed, and pays for pack
ing, and the Hollander releases himself
of all responsibility regardless of when
they arrive, as they must be accepted
'b^ the purchaser. So, between the two,
the greater risk lies with the lily im-
porter.

HOW TO SAY ' 'PLEASE REMIT."
Tactful Collecting.
The best method of collecting is the
method that brings in the outstanding
accounts without friction between the
house and the customer.
Our experience over a period of many
years would indicate that over ninety
per cent of all charge accotmts are paid
within the month following purchase
and ■ that thirty-eight per cent of all
accounts )iaid are paid on or before the
tenth of the month following purchase.
The accounts that are not so promjit
must be urged to payment by tactful
letters requesting remittance. A state-
ment of account, giving date and
amount, is often the only reminder
needed.
After that, a brief letter calling at-
tention to the account brings good re-
sults, as many people are merely care-
less and a simple request is .just the re-
minder they need.
As a Beminder.
After the bill, statement and reminder
have been mailed without result, a spe-
cial letter, written with a knowledge of
the character of the individual, is often
productive of the desired results, as
many will gladly remit when attention
is called to their delinquency by a per-
sonal appeal.
When an account becomes ninety days
past due. it is well to have some one from
your oftice call upon the debtor. This
representative must be familiar with
the account and the items purchased, and
should have with him an itemized bill.
By such a personal call, he can learn of
any complaint the customer may have,
or will find out the reason for the de-
lay in payment, which reason the cus-
tomer may not have wanted to put in a
letter to you. By courteous manner and
tactful apjiroach to relieve the debtor
of undue embarrassment, explanations
are usually forthcoming as to the cause
of delay, .and, if not paid at once, as-
surance of a definite time of payment
may be obtained. Generally the cour-
tesy of the representative and the atti-
tude of tlic house are appreciated and
the honest debtor makes early remit-
tance and maintains a friendly feeling
towards your establishment.
But where a debtor is obstinate, pays
no attention to statements and is indif-
ferent to the requests of your solicitor,
your attitude, while yet courteous and
tactful, must be firm and decisive. A

nience, a courtesy granted to the public
by the dealer, and not a right that may
be demanded by any buyer. The obliga-
tion in the matter rests entirely on the
debtor and morally and legally he is
bound to meet that obligation. He is
never justified in resenting courteous de-
mand for payment for service rendered.
Specimen Letters.
The following letters have been used
with considerable success in the collec-
tion of past due accounts, being sent
out in order at about 2-week intervals.
This order may be broken in upon at any
time when, in your judgment, a visit
from your collector might prove advis-
able. After all, knowledge of the per-
sonal character of your customers must
largely determine your attitude towards
them and your action regarding their
indebtedness.
LETTER 1.
Wo desire respectfully to call your attention
to the enclosed account. In inaliinK prompt
collections we are enabled to make prompt pay-
ments, and so help business generally. These
are extraordinary times, and we feel sure that
everyone is willing to do his part in maintain-
ing good business conditions. Would it not lie
a pleasure for you to assist by mailing us a

Your courtesy will be appreciated.
LETTER 2.
Our small account has no doiibt escaped your
notire. Will you not kindly I(x)k it up and send
us your check? It will be appreciated.
LETTER 3.
If there is any reason why our account should
not be paid, we should like to know, in order
that the matter may l>e adjusted.
If the account is correct, we would appreciate
your clieek in settlement.

We would appreciate very mucli the receipt
of tlie amount due on your account, for goods
sold .vou last .
We believe you will agree with us when
we state we have given you good service and
every courtesy in our business relations.
Surely you will consent that we are entitled
to our money. Will you not show your aiiprecia-
tlon of the fact by sending us your check?
LETTER 5.
We have no desire to embarrass yon. b\it l>c
lieve some attention is due our recpiests for pay-
ment of your account.
Will you not kindly give this your attention?
LETTER (i.
We cannot iinderstand your nnuattentinn to our
rcfpiests for payment of your account.
We sliail be compelled to use other means for
collection If we do not hear from you at once.
We regret to take such action and hope to
receive your check by return mail.
Personal Calls.
You have now, by means f)f state-
ments, personal calls and collection let-
ters, brought in all accounts except the
few which appear to be absolutely bad.
The next step is to turn these items
over to a professional collector. In
selecting such a medium, we believe the
best success may be had through the
agency that makes collections by per-
sonal call. For, after all, the delinquent
debtor may be honest. ha\-e good reasons
for nonpayment, maybe a just cause for
a complaint that could be and should be
adjusted (and bear in mind always that
a satisfactorily adjusted complaint is
one of the best advertisements you can
possibly have). A tactful collector, by
personal interview, can learn (because
he is known as a professional collector,
and the debtor knows that it is his
business to find out such things) from
the honest debtor the reasons for non-
payment or the causes for complaint.
From the viewpoint of an outside party,
and because of his experience in han-
dling such problems, he can form a fair
opinion of the debtor's inclination or
ability to pay, and can pass just judg-
ment on the case. If the circumstances
appear to warrant an extension of time
or an adjustment of the account, by
tactful handling of the situation he can
satisfy both parties and leave the debtor
with a friendly feeling towards you.
An old customer retained is better than
a new customer obtained. Cumulative
value of good will is a valuable asset to
any store.
But should solicitation by the collec-
tor fail to realize the account, then, if
the amount justifies the expense of such
action, the further steps to be taken may
safely be left to the good judgment and
discretion of the collection agency.
Debtors Are Human.
But I would have you always bear in
mind this truth: There is a good bit of
human nature in all of us, both debtor
and creditor. Maybe circumstances are
temporarily all against the customer.
Being human, he may not want to con-
fess his misfortune. And maybe, be-
cause he is human and not unlike most
of us, he may assume an attitude of in-
difference, believing that by so doing he
can hide from the public his temporary
misfortune. Later on, paying his obli-
gations, he believes he has saved himself
the embarrassment of having acknowl-
edged his insolvency. Isn't that only
human nature? If we believe so, we
have an opportunity to prove our own
greatness. Let him believe that we be-
lieve what he would have us believe.
Let us practice the Golden Kule.

O DOUBT you are all ex-
pecting something inter-
esting and helpful from me
in this brief discussion of
local advertising; so I am
going to do my best to tell
you, in as few words as
possible, some of the per-
sonal observations I have
made that help me to get
the best advertising results for the least
money. Do not, however, expect for a
moment that I am going to tell you how
to advertise your business; I am not yet
ready to quit the florists' business and
take up the advertising profession, or
make a monkey of myself. What I am
going to tell you is based upon my be-
lief in advertising as a business-builder,
a patron-winner.
I believe in advertising. I believe in
advertising because advertising to me is
simply aggressive salesman-
ship in public print, which
tells our story to the thou-
sands who are reached by
the media that we use.
Without going into the
technique or details of ad-
vertising, which I leave en-
tirely to my advertising
man, I will tell j'ou a few
of the rules which I apply
to our advertising in order
that it may be most pro-
ductive.
Besult of Repetition.
I have heard it said by
an experienced advertising

Greenhouses, Mempliis, Teiin., read at the sev-
enth unniial convention of the Tennessee State
Florists' Association, at Memphis, November 17.
minute or close up shop. I insist upon
sentiment and am a firm believer in the
fact that sentiment sells flowers.
Capitalizing Every Event.
In the way of sentiment I endeavor
to capitalize every holiday, seasonable
event and thought that in any way
can be turned to flower sentiment.
Whether we are pushing flowers, plants
or bulbs, or anything else, I insist upon
our advertising being seasonable. My
third rule is, therefore, that our adver-
tising must be seasonable and opportune.
My fourth, and next to last, rule is:
Keep something before the public at all
times. Our customers and friends, or
prospective customers and friends, must
man, and I believe it is
APHORISMS ON ADVERTISING. f
t^* v'* ((?*
Each advertisement should express, clearly and
forcibly, the main idea or principle on which the
firm's business is built.
paper advertising was the fact that de-
partment stores disposed of such great
quantities of merch'andise by using news-
papers. For if newspapers will sell or-
dinary merchandise, they will certainly
sell flowers, in which sentiment is strong
in its appeal. And I have found it to be
true. 1 need say little about newspaper
advertising; it needs no justification. It
is a busii'.ess-getting, sales-making help
to the florists' business.
If I have a hobby in publicity, my
hobby is direct advertising. The timely
mailing of folders, cards, etc., sent out
.iust previous to holidays or events,
brings a ready response in orders. You
are all more or less familiar with the
kind o'f advertising I mean. I mail this
advertising to our customers only, as I
have no prospect list, and as quickly
as we win new customers I add them to
my mailing list. During the last two
seasons we have used the
service of the Falls Service
Co. for our direct mail ad-
vertising, with the good re-
sults I have mentioned.
Without taking up your
time with billboard adver-
tising or painted signs or
street-car card advertising,
all of which I favor, I will
close with a few of the ways
we have capitalized some of
our equipment and location.
Each advertisement, if possible, should contain
an appeal to sentiment.
true, that "repetition builds
reputation." But unless you
repeat some distinctive
thought, idea or appealing
message and stick to it
everlastingly, you can have
no impressive repetition and
hence no reputation as a re-
sult of your advertising or
the word-of-mouth recom-
mendations of customers. So
the first rule I judge my
advertising by is: It must
contain, in a clear, under-
standable way, the one idea
upon which we are building our busi-
ness. And that one idea is that Idle-
wild flowers (if you will pardon this ref-
erence to our business) are not just
flowers, but high-quality flcrwers. And
our advertising is constantly aiming at
that same target, putting that same
thought into the minds of the people
we want to reach. So, instead of simply
selling flowers, or advertising flowers,
we are advertising and selling our own
kind of flowers.
Eight here I want to introduce my
second rule of advertising and that is:
Every one of our advertisements, when
possible, must contain some sentiment.
Sentiment sells flowers in the great ma-
jority of instances, and I think you all
agree with me that it is one of the most
vital pillars of the flower business. If I
thought for a minute that sentiment
would ever become dissociated from the
flower business, I would sell out this

portune.
By various expedients, the business should be
kept before the public continuously, lest possible
purchasers forget the store or its wares.
The slogan, "Say It with Flowers," should be
used persistently.
not be given an opportunity to forget
what we sell, because I feel we owe
them the duty of keeping them in-
formed. I will briefly summarize the
course of action embodied in the fourtii
rule, by telling you about the various
kinds of advertising we employ, for I
am constantly improving and building
up our advertising.
First and of greatest importance to us
in my experience has been our news-
paper advertising. In my opinion news-
paper advertising excels all others. If
you will stop to consider, you can easily
"understand what a short cut to count-
less thousands of people newspaper ad-
vertising is. In Memphis we have two
afternoon papers and one morning paper,
and in a single day I can reach nearly
every prospect in the territory within
seventy miles of Memphis bj- using these
papers.

Locations in Memphis are
difficult to find and remem-
ber, because of the countless
numbers of small specialty
stores and the fact that
they are nearly all scat-
tered about town.
On the sidewalk at the
curb in front of our store
you will find plants and
trees that are green the
year around. The entire
front of the building is in
a bright, attractive color
that stands out for several
blocks each way on the
street — a bright spot on the
street. When passers - by
have once seen the green
plants and trees on the sidewalk and the
color of the store front, they will for-
ever after identify our store and its
location whenever they see one of our
advertisements anywhere.
But we have gone further; the in-
terior is also of a striking, appealing
color and the displays and windows are
in tune with the seasons.
Our panelod-body, motor delivery cars
are also painted in a striking, appealing,
attractive color, which is suggestive of
bright and fresh flowers. A light green
color is used as the dominating sclieme.
I am confident that it pays.
But I am also a stickler for this,
the fifth and last rule in my advertis-
ing: I do not have a single advertise-
ment, piece of printed matter, sign or
service equipment that does not carry
the greatest advertisement our business
ever had, "Say It with Flowers." I
credit much of the greater demand for

flowers to the greater use of this appeal-
ing slogan, which is the envy of all in-
dustries whose sales are even slightly
influenced by sentiment. We have it,
fellow florists; let's capitalize it for all
it's worth. There is none better in the
land.
As a parting thought I wish to say
that we advertise to get people to think
and feel and say the same things about
our business that we want them to say;
and in making them feel and think and
talk, we sell them our product.
Recently the president of one of the
greatest national retail dealers' organi-
zations in the United States said: "The
man who advertises locally not only ad-
vertises the fact that he is an up-to-date,
wide-awake merchant, but also adver-
tises the fact that he is successful in
his business and making money, and
usually he is an influential factor in his
community."
And I want to say that I believe if
there were thirty florists in Memphis
and they all advertised in the right way,
each of the thirty would do more busi-
ness than each of the ten or fifteen now
do with the small amount of local ad-
vertising that we now do.

FLOWER SHOP ARRANGEMENT.
The Location.
To my mind, a flower store, like any
other retail store, should have a loca-
tion where the most people pass during
the day and evening, in proximity to the
hotels and theaters. I prefer a corner
store, where it is possible to have the
maximum of window space. The store,
by all means, should be level with the
sidewalk. I object to having even one
step to make in approaching the en-
trance door.
Window Advertising.
The windows should have the first
consideration, so get as much glass front
as possible. I think a curved glass
window with a marble base is the best.
The floors of tlie windows should be from
eighteen inches to two feet above the
sidewalk. The flooring of the windows
should be of tile, with provision for
proper dr.ainage. There should be a
water connection in each window for
watering plants and arranging fountain
displays. There should also bo electric
sockets for connecting electrical dec-
orations, such as liglited pumpkins for
Halloween displays. Have the lights
concealed, using reflectors with high-
power globes, to make the windows and
the front as bright as possible, which
at the same time will light up the entire
store front and show off your display
to the best advantage.
In arranging a store front, if there is
space for two windows, I prefer one
large window and one small window,
using the large window for decorative
effects of a seasonal nature. My reason
for having the smaller window is to
show practically nothing in it except
choice arrangements of cut flowers. The
advantage of the small window is that
you can combine diflferent colors of
velvet and ribbon with your general
color scheme and von do not have to
use a large quantity of cut flowers in the
window.
Results from Windows.
When it comes to advertising, spend
your money on your windows first and
let the newspapers, posters, folders,
etc.. come next. The advnntage of hav-
ing a large window was demonstrated
to me more this f.nll than ever before.

mpnt." ripliverpd .it the soventli nnniial nieetinp

Memphis, Tenn., November 17. 1920
During our fair we had a display of
bulbs with attractive posters. There
was box upon box of narcissus bulbs,
and by using baskets filled with tulips
and hyacinths and covering the floor
with bulbs, we had a display which
filled the entire window and was six
feet high in the back and center. We
intermingled palms and ferns with the
cork bark in making this display. As a
result we sold more bulbs t^n we ever
had sold before.
We tried a display of baskets in this
big window. We happened to have three
shipments coming from different firms,
which were all of practically different
designs and colorings, from the smallest
tumbler basket to some baskets six feet
high. We also put two attractive dis-
plays on each side of the entrance to
the store. Although these baskets were
bought to carry us through the fall and
Christmas seasons, we have practically
sold tlie entire lots.
The windows should have mirrors in
the sides where possible, but the back
of the window should be left open, so
that everything in the store can be
seen.
Display Icebox.
Next to the windows, the icebox should
be given the first consideration. The
icebox should have as much glass space
as possible. It should be well lighted,
with a tile floor and step elevations, so
that the flowers may be arranged one
vase above another. Each vase of
flowers should stand out distinctly from
the others.
If possible, there should be a reserve
icebox in the workroom, where the sur-
plus flowers can be kept and not crowded
together in the main icebox.
In displaying flowers in the icebox, T
think that the green willow, zinc-lined
vases lately introduced are decidedlv
the best, much better than the old-
fashioned fiber jar, zinc vase, glass or
crockery. It reflects the color" of the
flowers, as a dull b.nckgrnimd does all
flowers. The vases are graded in sizes
.nnd are suhstnntinl. The icebox should
have mirrors in the back of it. the same
as the sides of the windows. .
Arrangement of Store.
The size of the store has n great
deal to do with the general arrange-
ment, but the arrangements should be
such as to afford the best displny of the
flowers. Whoever plans the store should
follow out some floral scheme. He m.ay
.Trrnnge it in an Italian garden effect.
Pergola effects, with columns, can be
worked in almost any store to good ad-
vantage, and with lattice trimmings you
can get a garden-effect background that
lends itself beautifully to the display of
flowers. I am opposed to the use of mir-
rors in the up-to-date flower shop, be-
cause barber shops and Greek restau-
rants have worked mirrors overtime.
In my own store, I conceived the idea
of a garden wall, which I built all around
the store in tapestry brick of a fancy
design, giving the effect of a handsome
garden wall. This dull brick background
shows the flowers and plants to great
advantage.
In arranging the ofiice in the store, I
had a balcony built, and by having gar-
den gates going through this brick wall,
with a combination of pergola and balus-
trade, I was able to get an attractive
background in the rear of the store,
which afforded me the use of the bal-
cony for office space, and the space un-
derneath for the assorting and packing
of the flowers.
Fountain an Aid.
Where the decorations of the store are
carried out elaborately I think a foun-
tain arrangement helps to make the store
more attractive and is in keeping with
floral schemes. In arranging a fountain,
see that it is well built and of good
design, and that there is not any leaking
or splashing of water outside of it to
make the floor wet and dirty. The foun-
tain should also be built with a view of
combining plants and flowers with it to
give an attractive decorative effect. In
other words, the fountain should, like a
show case in a store, be used to display
your merchandise in the most attractive
manner.
To my mind there is nothing so attrac-
tive in a flower store as wicker furni-
ture, upholstered with ta]>estry cushions.
I also prefer baskets, stands and urns
of willow, rather than of crockery. The
floor of the store should be of some
attractive tile design, which can be
easily cleaned, and of the same color as
the general scheme of the store decora-
tions.
The lighting effects in the store should
be given careful consideration. Flowers,
like jewelry, should have all the light
obtainable, but shaded fixtures should be
used, so as not to let the light itself
be seen.
Separate Workroom.
Where it is possible, the workroom
should be separated from the store, as it
is nearly impossible to keep the store
clean if bouquets and designs are made
up in the store. A clean store and
icebox should be a manager's hobby. I
think every store should have a maid
to do nothing but see that the icebox
and floor are kept clean and the fixtures
and furniture are dusted and washed
regularly. I do not think the office
should be on the main floor of the store,
where it is possible to have it on an
upper floor or in a balcony, where there
may be privacy for the bookkeepers. In
some convenient but not conspicuous
position, an attractive mirror should be
placed, so that the customers may use
it in pinning on flowers, etc.
The workroom should have .ns much
daylight as jiossible and should be well
lighted artificially, to aid the designer
in combining flowers and ribbons. It
should also be large enough to afford
plenty of room for the workers and the

BEDDING BOSES FOB SOUTH.
Tests of Twenty-Five Years.
During the last twenty-five years I
have tested more than 2,000 varieties of
bedding roses in the open ground, giv-
ing only a minimum amount of care and
attention to the plants, endeavoring, as
far as possible, to determine the value
of each variety under conditions which
the rose usually finds in the gardens
throughout the country, where they are
made to struggle, in most instances, for
their very existence.
The bedding rose which I have in view
is one that does well on its own roots.
It is a gross feeder, vigorous in growth,
with foliage resistant to the greatest de-
gree to the attacks of fungous diseases
and other ills. It is prolific in bloom,
constant under the most trying condi-
tions, producing well formed buds and
open flowers of good substance which
stand up well when used for house dec-
oration.
Object of List.
I shall, no doubt, be criticized for the
list of bedding roses I am giving you,
because I am leaving out many of your
favorites, as well as many varieties
which I am sure would add materially
to any list if grown by skilled hands,
but I have in mind rather the small
buyer who loves the rose because it is
chaste and beautiful and who has little
time from the drudgery of everyday life
to care for its needs. Under adverse
conditions only the vigorous, robust rose
will give a semblance of its real worth
and beauty. Lack of knowledge in
plant culture, sentiment and sympathy
has been the process by which many
roses have met an untimely end.
Owing to the great diversity of soil
and climatic conditions throughout the
country, the list I have prepared is
suited only to localities similar to the
one in which I live. I would not under-
take to offer a list that would prove sat-
isfying elsewhere, as each section of the
country offers obstacles in growing suc-
cessfully many of the varieties that are
reliable in favored localities. How-
ever, you will find in my list many va-
rieties that are not oversensitive to cli-
matic conditions wherever planted in
southern sections.
Tea Eose Most Satisfactory.
As a whole, the tea rose is the most
satisfactory family suited to southern
conditions. It thrives on its own roots,
is robust in growth, floriferous, fragrant,
constant in bloom and always depend-
able.
Next in order I would place the hy-
brid teas. When well done, all are beau-
tiful, but the majority are slackers
when the rub comes, and only the fa-
vored few are worthy of extended plant-
ing unless grown under equable condi-
tions.
To the above two groups may be add-
ed a few Bourbons, Chinas, hybrid

remontants, rugosas and their hybrids
and the baby ramblers. These families
not only add variety to extended lists,
but many are among our most depend-
able bedders.
Three Groups.
Bedding roses may be divided into
three groups, (a) those grown for cut
flowers, (b) those grown for massing or
mass effect, and (c) those grown for
borders, dwarf beds or similar require-
ments. Further divisions should be
made, especially with varieties used for
massing. Some of the most dependable
varieties are unequal in growth, i. e.,
Duchesse de Brabant is a strong grower,
while Grass an Teplitz is only moderate
in growth. It is needless to say that for
mass planting or grouping, the best ef-
fect is brought about by using only one
variety. Never use varieties of unequal

growth in mixed plantings. If this
method is disregarded, within a few
years the weaker member will be over-
shadowed by those of vigorous growth
and will soon become diseased and die.
I have found the following list to be
dependable under the trying extremes
that we have in this section:
TEA ROSES.
Cut flowpr varietlps.
William R. Smitli. salmon and rose-pink.
Maman Cochet. liffht pink, shaded with salmon.
White Cochet, creamy white, faintly tinged
with blush.
Helen Good, delicate yellow, suffused with
pink, each petal edged deeper.
Mrs. BenJ. R. Cant, deep rose.
Safrano, apricot and fawn.
Papa Gontier, rosy crimson,
Etoile de Lyon, bright stilpliiiryoll<iw.
Alexander Hill Gray, deep golden yellow.
Marie Van Houtte, canary yellow, petals tipped
with deep rose.
Pevoniensls, creamy white, blush center.
To the above may be added such va-
rieties as Blumenschmidt, Mile. F. Kru-
ger. Bride, Bridesmaid. Isabelle Sprunt.
Maurice Rouvier, "White Bougere, Gen-
eral Tartas and Marie Guillot.
TEA ROSES.
Varieties suited for massing and show
Duchesse de Brabant, light rose, shMilini; t.)
salmon. , j . ,
Mme. Jos. Schwartz, creamy white, tinted piiik.
Mme. Lambard, bright deep rose.
Snowflake, pure white.
These varieties are also good as cut
flower ^•arieties, but for growth, free-
dom of bloom and general mass effect,
tliey are unequaled.
HYBRID TEA ROSES.
Cut flower varieties.
Radiance, rosy carmine.
Red Radiance, glowing crimson.
President Tuft, deep shining pink.
Antoine Rivoire, rosy flesli on yellow ground.
K. R. Patzer. creamy huff.
t'ol. .S. R. Williamson, satiny white, blush cen-
ter.
Helen Gould, bright red.
I.Kairent Carle, velvety carmine.
Mme. Abel Cliatenay, carmine rose, shaded
salmon.
I.iiidy I'rsula, flesh pink.
Rliea Reid, dark velvety red,
Mrs. A. R. Waddell. coppery orange — a beauti-
ful coniliination of colors.
Mme. Jenny (Jilleniot, deep saffron yellow.
HYBRID TEA ROSES.
Varieties suited for massing.
Ecarlate, brilliant red.
Red Letter Day, brilliant glowing scarlet.
Mile. H. Cambier, orange yellow.
AVellesley, pink.
Miss Cynthia Ford, pink.
Where one has good soil conditions,
position and the desire to increase the
list, and also a willingness to work and
occasionally take defeat, the following
should be grown:
General MacArthur, Ophelia,
Lady Ashton, Betty,
Mme. Segond Weber, Mrs, Chas. Russell,
White Killarney, Mme. Euler,
Columbia, Mme. Jules Grolez,
Florence Pemherton, Killarney,
Mme. Testout. Mrs. Aaron Ward,
General Jansen, Kalserin.
Kaiscrin, a most beautiful white
rose, is unsatisfactory on its own roots.
It does well, however, budded on canina
or multiflora stocks. I have had splen-
did results by growing climbing Kai-
serin as a bush plant, but this takes time
and constant attention.
Lesser Classes.
Bourbons offer few varieties, but
when properly grown, they prove their
worth by giving a mass of bloom, espe-
cially during the fall months. Eugene
Marlitt is an indispensable garden rose.
It should be included in every list of de-
pendable varieties.
Empress Eugenie, bright pink.
Eugene Marlitt, rich scarlet witli deeper tones.
W'hite Malmaison, white, tinted lemon yellow,
Souv. de la Malmaison, blush white, shaded
flesh.
Hermosa. bright pink.
Sombrieul, white.
Malmaison and its white form should
be pruned only sparingly. If allowed to
grow into large bushes their freedom of
bloom will repay any and all attention
given,
China roses have been practically sup-
planted by the dwarf polyantha or baby
roses, but several are indispensable,
such as Gruss an Teplitz and Louis Phil-
ippe. The latter is one of the best gar-
den roses grown. Free in growth and
constant in bloom, it always offers a
handful of flowers when almost every
other rose is at play.
Iy>uis Philippe, velvpt.v crimson.
Gruss an Teplitz, deep crimson, shaded maroon.
Burbank. clierr.v rose.
Hybrid remontants include a splendid
list of varieties which are prolific spring
bloomers, but unless careful and con-
stant attention is given to pruning, the
fall crop of blooms is limited. Those
varieties which are usually termed ever-
bloomers are usu.tHv poor growers and
30

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

AMEND BEETLE QUABANTINE.
An amendment to the quarantine of
parts of New Jersey and Pennsylvania
on account of the Japanese beetle, which
will be effective December 1, permits the
shipment of cut flowers from the pre-
scribed districts between November 1
and June 15. In the first text of the
quarantine cut flowers were included
with plants from greenhouses in being
barred from shipment, except with a
certificate of inspection, the year
around.
The revised section of the quarantine.
No. 48, as issued by Acting Secretary
of Agriculture E. D. Ball November 17,
reads as follows:
Regulation 4. Regulation of Movement of
Plants and Plant Products and Other Articles
Under Quarantine Originating in Infested Areas.
(1) Farm, garden and orchard products of all
kinds, including fresh or perishable crops, such
as green com, tomatoes, beans, peas, cantaloupes,
watermelons, grapes, raspberries, blackberries,
cherries, peaches, apples and all other fresh fruits
and vegetables; (2) grain and forage crops of all
kinds; (3) nursery, ornamental and greenhouse
stock and all other plants, including bulbs and
cut flowers; and (4) soil, compost and manure
other than fresh manure shall not be moved or
allowed to be moved interstate to any point out-
side the infested area quarantined for the Japan-
ese beetle unless and until such articles have
been Inspected by the United States Department
of Agriculture and certified to be free from the
Japanese beetle. Provided, That in the case of
nursery, ornamental and greenhouse stock, bulbs
and all other plants except cut flowers, this quar-
antine and regulations shall apply throughout
the year; in the case of cut flowers and all other
products, for the period between June 15 and
November 1.
In the original quarantine the last
clause read as follows:
Provided, That In the case of nursery, orna-
mental and greenhouse stock, and all other
plants, including bulbs and rut Howers, this
quarantine and regulation shall apply through-
out the year: in the case of all otlier products,
for the period between June 15 and November 1.
BRAMPTON, ONT.
The Maxket.
The winter season has opened in fine
style, November business showing a
considerable increase over last year. The
cold weather has been long in coming,
but although a certain slackness has
been felt during the last fortnight
by florists generally throughout the Do-
minion, owing to the weather having
brought in a glut of stock at a period
when all other markets were supposed
to be weak, the air has since cleared
and it is felt that there are no reasonable
grounds for apprehension regarding the
prospects for the season just begun.
The most important question for the
next few weeks will be concerned with
the problem of supply during the holi-
day season, the demand for all lines
of stock being greater than ever this
year.
Various Notes.
The coal situation has improved con-
siderably in the course of the last few
weeks and, although some of the florists
have been unfortunate enough to have
to pay profiteering rates for their sup-
ply, they will find it less diflScult to
furnish an explanation to their Christ-
mas patrons when the question of prices
comes up.
The large heating section at the Dale
Estate is at last completed and firing
began on Thursday, November 18. This
new plant has been erected at a great
expense and under the most disagree-
able conditions that could have possibly
prevailed. It has taken over eighteen
months to accomplish this work, but as
it means the linking up of the various
greenhouses, covering an area of twenty-
six acres, it is hoped that there will be
considerable saving in coal and labor.
The wages of the workingman have
undergone a change within the last few
weeks, the rate per hour having been
reduced from 50 cents to 40 cents. This
is general throughout the country.
At the Dale Estate, the new oflS.ce8
and a large addition to the cellar are
nearing completion and things are well
under way to enable this firm to cope
with the busiest season ever experienced
in the florists' trade.
Among recent visitors were E. G. Hill,
Richmond, Ind.; C. Lee, Montreal, and
A. Tomlinson, Guelph.

shipping clerk. There should be coun-
ters provided for the wirers and bins
built for made-up shipping boxes, so that
they may be had at a moment's notice.
Storage Booms.
I have divided my second floor into
different rooms. I have a ribbon room,
where all the ribbon, tulle, chiffon, etc.,
is stored. The stock is kept in glass
cases on, shelves, so that one can readily
see just what stock is on hand. I have
another room where all the baskets,
tumbler vases, etc., are kept. Another
one we call the glass room, where flower
bowls, small glass vases, bud vases and
novelty -glassware are kept. Another
room we use for keeping general sup-
plies, such as toothpicks, twine and
match sticks.
On the next landing I store all ship-
ping and cut flower boxes. There is a
separate bin to hold each size that we
use, both in corrugated and cut flower
boxes.
At the front of this floor, where there
is ample light space, is our wire shop.
I have my arrangements on the top
floor similar to the workroom floor. This
is given over to the decorators. They
have one room where all of the decora-
tive materials, such as electrical fixtures,
candelabra, tall vases, urns for church
work, lattice paneling, Japanese umbrel-
las and lanterns and all this class of
articles, are stored. We have a separate
room on this floor which we call the
carpenter shop, where all the painting
of baskets, making of birch boxes and
work of this nature is done.
Besponsibillty.
All of these separate rooms through-
out the building are under lock and
key. The decorators are responsible for
the decorating rooms. They see to it
that the different articles are stored
properly in their respective places. The
wire man has his own key and is respon-
sible for the wire room. A general
stockkeeper looks after the other rooms,
keeping them locked at all times, and
deals out the different articles as they
may be needed. I hold him responsible
for the stock in these different rooms.
The basement of our store is used as
a stock room for the made-up wirework,
heavy decorative materials, iron stands
and goods of this character.

Growers Organize.
A meeting called by J. S. Wilson, Sr.,
of Des Moines, la., a director of the
National Flower Growers' Association,
was held at the store of J. F. Wilcox
& Sons, Council Bluflfs, la., Wednesday,
November 17. The growers of Iowa,
Nebraska and Missouri were privileged
to hear Secretary J. F. Ammann, of the
National Flower Growers' Association,
outline the purpose and aims of the asso-
ciation in an interesting and instructive
talk. At the conclusion of the talk and
the reading of the constitution and by-
laws a short discussion was held, after
nivShich twentyj-seyen \ applications Jfor
membership were received. The con-
stitution and by-laws were approved and
the name Mid-west District of the Na-
tional Flower Growers' Association was
adopted.
The following officers and directors
were elected: President, J. S. Wilson,
Sr., Des Moines, la.; vice-presidents,
Irwin Frey, Lincoln, Neb., and F. X.
Stuppy, St. Joseph, Mo.; directors, Glenn
Wilcox and F. L. Lainson, Council Bluffs,
la.; J. Aldous, Iowa City, la.; I. O.
Kemble, Marshalltown, la.; G. A. Fos-
berg, Sioux City, la., and J. J. Hess,
Omaha, Neb. The board was authorized
to name delegates to the national con-
vention.
At a meeting of the directors, James
L. Denmead, Marshalltown, la., was ap-
pointed secretary and Glenn Wilcox,
Council Bluffs, la., was appointed treas-
urer.
The secretary is going to put on an
active campaign at once for additional
members. The meeting was an enthusi-
astic one and the outlook is bright for
a large and active membership. The
secretary will act until after the na-
tional convention, when the district ex-
pects to employ a secretary.
J. F. Ammann was elected an honorary
member of the district association.
Iowa Society Meets.
Tuesday, November 16, at Council
Bluffs, la., during the annual exposition
of the Mid-West Horticultural Society,
the attending florists of Iowa were en-
tertained at a dinner given by J. F.
Wilcox & Sons, at the Grand hotel. A
business meeting of the Society of Iowa
Florists was held during the evening
and the following olficers were elected
for the coming year: President, Blaine
Wilcox, Council Bluflfs; vice-president,
J. S. Wilson, Sr., Des Moines; secretary
and treasurer, James L. Denmead, Mar-
shalltown.
It was the sense of the meeting that
the society endeavor to raise funds to
employ a secretary and that the secre-
tary of the Mid-west Horticultural So-
ciety be asked to accept the office and
carry on the work in connection with
his other duties.
Twenty-five members paid their dues,
and the secretary will put on a cam-
paign for more members.
The Market.
The weather was dark and unfavor-
able last week, and a shortage of all
varieties of stock was felt during the
last few days. The conditions which
resulted formed a peculiar contrast witli
the previous week, when almost every
seasonable variety of stock was avail-
able at low prices. There was a large
increase in out-of-town orders, but it
was hard to get sufficient stock to fill
them. From all indications, this short-
age will be felt for some time, as the
dark, rainy weather continues.

Dodge car to his delivery service.

The Review brings results.
Hope you had a good Thanksgiving.
Advance orders indicated a better
Thanksgiving business than usual in most
markets.
Some small ranges are more profitable
than large ones, because their owners are
expert at utilizing every foot of bench
space.
The requisites for success are ability
to do something well and doing it. The
second is as important as the first and
more often lacking.
Giganteum bulbs which are to be flow-
ered for Easter, which is March 27 in
1921, should be planted not later than
the first week in December.
A GOOD many people, florists and pub-
lishers among others, have not realized
how easy it has been to get business in
the last two years. It may be different
during the next few months. The sur-
vival of the fittest may be among the
old laws which are about to function
again.
The trade may not soon again be so
ready to buy large quantities of Holland
bulbs at high prices, but there is little
probability that anyone who forces his
1920 purchases for his own retail trade
will fail to make money. The florist
who grows and retails in a small city is
the most independent man on earth.
A straw shows the wind. Bradstreet's
reports 307 failures in the United States
for last week, against 211 for the previous
week, and 110, 132, 238, 303 for the cor-
responding weeks of 1919 to 1916. About
69.7 per cent of the total number of
concerns failing had $5,000 capital or less,
and 16.6 per cent had from $5,000 to
$20,000 capital.
"We send today a few flowers for the
editor's desk" has become a frequent
message in the mails and with it Novem-
ber 22 came a half-dozen perfect blooms
of Baur & Steinkamp's new chrysanthe-
mum, Thanksgiving Pink, so named be-
cause of the season at which it is ready to
cut. It is an unusually large, well formed
flower, deep pink in color, and has been
commented favorably on by everyone who
lias visited the offices of The Review this
week. It will be generally tried, once it
is on the market.
It is said that one eastern concern
has acquired all the cocoanut fiber in
sight and doubled the price.
Near the large cities common labor is
being obtained for greenhouse work at
approximately half its cost six months
ago.
The November issue of the S. A. F.
Journal, reduced to thirty-two pages this
month, is filled chiefly with reports of
state vice-presidents, which are mainly
concerned with local fuel problems of last
winter.
Some sellers report the retail florists
as being heavily stocked with Christmas
goods, bought earlier and more freely
than ever before, with present demand
negligible, but it seems quite probable
it is only the lull before the storm.
The price of chiffon is what the sales-
men call "shot to pieces," but none of
the retailers is buying except for immedi-
ate needs; they are doing as almost
always is done in a broken market, wait-
ing for prices to go still lower, although
there is greater probability they will re-
bound.
The editor's desk has been decorated
for several days with a vase of seedling
chrysanthemums from W. F. Richter, Cull-
man, Ala. There were two varieties, of
his own raising, a cream-colored semi-
double and a snow-white variety almost
like a cactus dahlia. Mr. Richter wrote
that he has twenty-five plants of one
and ten of the other, in their second year.
A DOZEN HXTNDBED.
This week The Review pays to readers
its twelve-hundredth visit — that is, to
those of its present readers who were
among the subscribers to its first num-
ber, and there are a considerable num-
ber of them. Those who can remember
that first number will note a great
change. Most marked is the change in
size and appearance. It has occupied
twenty-three years — not a lightning
transformation, but a steady upward
growth wrought by hard work and serv-
ice to the trade. The dozen hundred
numbers represent a contribution to the
trade's progress; and there is satisfac-
tion in realizing that The Review's
growth has kept pace with that of the
trade.
NO TIME FOR PESSIMISTS.
In the processes of business readjust-
ment, some of which seem to have an
exceedingly dark gray hue at the mo-
ment, florists should not overlook the
factors operating, not for today or to-
morrow, but for next week and next
month. Clearness of mind on this score
will save pessimistic thoughts and pro-
mote that courageous optimism which
is so valuable to any business man just
now. The reasons for assuming a cheer-
ful view of conditions are cited in the
following paragraph from a prominent
banker's statement recently:
"There is so much in the present sit-
uation to inspire confidence and hope
for the future that it is little short of
criminal for anyone to paint the picture
so blackly, through either ignorance or
intent, that these vital facts are ob-
scured. To cite a few pertinent facts:
This country will harvest this j'ear one
of the largest crops in its history; its
transportation congestion has been re-
lieved and its railroad system is for the
first time in a decade on a sound finan-
cial and operating basis; we have passe
through a national election and assure
four years of sane administration o;
public affairs; our banking system ha
withstood the greatest credit strain ii
its history and is on a sound and work
able basis; the accumulated surplus c
five years of splendid prosperity if
stored in many ways for our continue(j
use; the markets of the world demani'
our products and a great mercantik
marine is prepared to transport them,
this country has not been overbuilt or
overextended in any of its underlyino
activities, and faces no program of re
adjustment along these lines such a.s
usually precipitates panic conditions.
We are in the soundest financial, indus
trial and political condition of any im-
portant nation in the world. These are
the simple fundamental facts of our
business situation, and to consider the
present reaction as anything but a teni
porary setback from the destruction, in-
flation, extravagance and unsound eco-
nomic conditions precipitated by the
war is simply not to reckon with the
truth."
HERE'S A CHANCE FOR HELP.
Greenhouse owners and nurserymen
whose experienced employees have left
them for more profitable trades and who
have found no apprentices forthcoming
to replace them, may find a possible so-
lution of the help difficulty in the work
of the Federal Board for "Vocational Edu.
cation, Division of Rehabilitation, which
has offices in the principal cities of the
country. The office of district No. 8 is
at 14 East Congress street, Chicago.
This district office covers the states of
Illinois, Michigan and Wisconsin and
in the last two weeks has had three
applications from returned soldiers wish-
ing to obtain positions in the florists'
or nursery business.
Work in a greenhouse or a nursery
is quite beneficial to men who have
spent months in hospital wards, have
suffered from a slight dose of gas, or
are recuperating from shell shock or
nervous troubles, and the board expects
many applications in the near future by
returned soldiers for positions in this
kind of work. So systematic are the
board's classifications that the employer
need not fear that the man he takes
on will be too much disabled to do his
job. Only certain men with minor dis-
abilities will be given positions of this
nature, and in every case the man will
be able to carry on his duties as well as
another. Moreover, in some cases the
disabilities might be such that, while
able to do greenhouse work, the appli-
cant would be unfitted for some other
occupations, and hence would be the
more likely to remain permanently in his
place.
Of course, since these men are, for
the most part, untrained in the rudi-
ments of the profession, the employer
would not feel justified in paying high
salaries at first, but would in many cases
gladly take the applicant as an appren-
tice, paying him what he was actually
worth. The Federal Board for Voca-
tional Education sees to it that each
man gets enough, over and above what
his employer pays him, to live on. This
means that by making a place for a
soldier apprentice the employer does not
take any burden on his shoulders. He
pays the actual value of the apprentice 's
labor and the federal board sees that he
gets a competency.

Chaxles J. Bolgiano.
Charles J. Bolgiano, president of J.
Bolgiano & Son, Baltimore, Md., was
found dead in his garage in the rear of
his home, 8 Elmhurst road, Eoland Park,
Friday morning, November 19, from car-
bon monoxide gas poisoning. He was
seated in his automobile, the engine of
which was running, when found by his
son, Charles A. Bolgiano. Gas from the
engine of the car caused death, accord-
ing to the coroner, who believed that
death was accidental.
When informed of Mr. Bolgiano 's
death, Thomas Kemp, his attorney, said:
"Mr. Bolgiano 's death at this time
is particularly sad and unfortunate. He
had suffered business reverses which
precipitated bankruptcy about a month
ago, but only November 18, at a meet-
ing of the larger creditors, which Mr.
Bolgiano and his brother and other
members of the family attended, a plan
of reorganization was submitted, which
was received favorably, and suflScient
funds had been pledged by Mr. Bolgi-
ano's brother and other relatives to
finance the plan and rehabilitate the
business.
"I attended this meeting with Mr.
Bolgiano at the Baltimore Trust Co. and
later Mr. Bolgiano came to my office,
where we remained until late in the
afternoon. Before leaving he made an
appointment to call at my office at 10
o'clock Friday morning, to complete
preparations for the reorganization. At
this time he seemed very cheerful and
optimistic. ' '
Members of Mr. Bolgiano 's family
said that he had suffered heart attacks
recently. He went to his garage to get
his car at 6:30 o'clock, and when he
did not emerge from the garage his
son, thinking that something was wrong
with the machine, went to help him. He
found the door of the garage closed,
and when he opened it, was met by a
cloud of dense smoke and gas. He
found his father, apparently dead, seat-
ed at the steering wheel of the car.
Several physicians were hastily sum-
moned, but their efforts to revive Mr.
Bolgiano proved futile.
He is survived by his widow, two
sons, Charles Alfred and John Norman
Bolgiano, five daughters, Flora E., May,
Emily M., Mary Virginia and Charlotte
A. Bolgiano, two brothers, Roland and
Frank W. Bolgiano, and a sister, Mrs.
J. Burch Joyce.
Mr. Bolgiano and his brother, Roland
Bolgiano, now of Los Angeles, Cal., suc-
ceeded their father, the late Joseph H.
Bolgiano, in the seed business in 1897.
They conducted the business as part-
ners until about seven years ago, when
Roland's health caused him to resign
from the firm.
That Mr. Bolgiano was deeply inter-
ested in the adjustment of his financial
difficulties is shown by the fact that a
few days ago, in association with Wil-
liam H. Hihm and Morris B. Robinson
as incorporators, he obtained a charter
for Charles J. Bolgiano, Inc., which was,
with the assent of the creditors in the
bankruptcy proceedings, hereafter to
conduct the seed business under corpo-
rate, instead of his personal manage-
ment. The authorized capital stock of
the corporation was to consist of 1,000
shares of undeclared par value.
William Ingle, Waldo Newcomer and
Albert D. Graham, who were named by
the creditors of the late Mr. Bolgiano
as trustees in bankruptcy of his assets
and business, applied to Judge Rose for
authority to continue this business for
the present, in view of a report made by
the receivers that, since their appoint-
ment a few weeks ago, the business has
proved profitable.
Mr. Bolgiano was a member of many
organizations, among which are the
following: Board of Trade, American
Seed Trade Association, Society of
.American Florists, City Club, Advertis-
ing Club, Ancient and Honorable Me-
chanical Company of Baltimore, Roland
J 'ark Civic League, Merchants and Man-
ufacturers Association, Chamber of
Commerce of the United States, Auto-
mobile Club of Maryland, Thirty-second
Degree A. F. and A. M., Mystic Shrine
and Knights Templar.
Abraham Iralson.
Abraham Iralson, one of the veteran
retail florists in Chicago, died November
22 at Hahnemann hospital, as the result
of an accident which occurred Novem-
ber 18. Shortlv after dark on the even-
Charles J. Bolgiano.
ing of that day Mr. Iralson started to
cross Grand boulevard near his store,
which is at 356 East Forty-third street,
and was struck by a taxicab. He suf-
fered such severe injuries about the
head and chest that he never fully re-
gained consciousness.
Mr. Iralson had spent a large part of
his life in the vicinity of the spot at
which he met his death. He had been in
the retail business between Grand boule-
vard and the "L" station for over
twenty years, first with a place on the
south side of the street, which he sold
out to permit a venture in the north-
west. Returning to the city after an
absence of a few years, he sought his
old neighborhood, opening his store
almost directly across the street from
his former store. There he quickly re-
gained the personal following that had
made him moderately prosperous through
life. He was about 50 years of age. A
brother, Mose, is a well-known business
man in the same south side neighbor-
hood in which Mr. Iralson was located.
The funeral was held November 24
from the chapel at 936 East Forty-
seventh street, with burial at Rosehill.
There was a large attendance and many
flowers.
John Weir.
John Weir, of Brooklyn, N. Y., died
suddenly while on a New York Central
train approaching the One Hundred and
Twenty-fifth street station November 22.
Since boyhood he had been connected
with the business and was active around
the store at 324 Fulton street up to
Saturday, November 20, despite the 75
or more years of age he carried. For the
period of an ordinary lifetime he was
around the flower market, making pur-
chases of stock, only recently settling
down to indoor work. Both he and his
brother, Fred, were prominent retailers
of Brooklyn. His father, James Weir,
a native of Perth, was a pioneer grower
of plants in the vicinity of New York.
He saw practically the beginning of the
florists' business in and around New
York and Brooklyn. He is survived by
liis wife, a son and a daughter. J. H. P.
Henry C. Woltemate,
Henry C. Woltemate, Mt. Airy, Phila-
delphia, died unexpectedly while asleep
Sunday night, November 21. He was
the last to survive of three brothers, all
of whom achieved the reputation of able
florists in the vicinity of Philadelphia.
His son, Albert W. Woltemate, had suc-
ceeded to the management of his
father's greenhouses, at Mt, Airy. An-
other son, Gilbert, bought a range at
Wyndmoor.
CHICAGO.
The Market.
Last week closed with a two days'
spurt of business which left the mar-
ket at quitting time November 20 more
closely cleaned up than in several
months. This was in spite of the re-
turn of warm weather, which accel-
erated the production of cut flowers.
Conditions gave rise to the belief that
the trade is in line for its usual winter
activity, with a fair amount of stock
until after Christmas unless cold
weather intervenes. A cold snap always
reduces the cuts and, with demand at
its present volume, prices are likely to
be as erratic as the weather.
In certain places there was an in-
crease in the rose supply last week,
which set the ■ local buyers shopping.
There never was greater sameness in
the rose supply than this season. Beau-
ties have almost ceased to be a factor,
although two growers are cutting al-
most perfect stock in some quantity.
In most cases Premier and Russell are
us^d interchangeably and Columbia is in
largest supply. Something as yet un-
explained has happened to Ophelia,
which is neither so plentiful nor so good
as lisual at this time of year. Butterfly
takp its place. The only red rose is
Milady, a variety some growers do much
less well than others. There are few
white.
The supply of chrysanthemums for
Thanksgiving is the smallest in years.
The early sorts, including pompons, were
nearly all cut out before the approach
of the feast day began to be felt in
the market. But it is said there will be
unusually large supplies of mums and
pompons after Thanksgiving. The ex-
planation is that in recent seasons the
late mums were much more profitable
than the earlier varieties, with the re-
sult that the growers gradually have
been shifting over. They say they will
be cutting until Christmas.
Carnations have not increased in sup-
ply as had been expected and it is be-
ginning to be believed that last year's
t'X]icrifnce is being felt in this depart-

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

phis last week, for the meeting of the
progressive Tennessee State Florists'
Association.
John Poehlmann, treasurer of Poehl-
mann Bros. Co. and manager of the city
stores, was there with C. J. Nielsen, one
of the supply department salesmen, and
a fine exhibit of cut flowers. Mr. Poehl-
mann went thence to New Orleans for
a couple of days, while Mr. Nielsen went
to Burlington, la., to meet his wife, who
was with relatives near there.
Paul R. Klingsporn spent three days
at Memphis in the interest of the Chi-
cago Flower Growers' Association, re-
turning home to find the pride of the
family, 2^ years old, under the care
of the doctor. It proved to be only a
cold.
William A. Hansen, of the Amling
Co., spent Monday and Tuesday at the
show at Council Bluflfs, Wednesday and
Thursdajy at Memphis and Friday at
St. Louis.
Eric Johnson, manager of the cut
flower department of the A. L. Randall
Co., also had an exhibit for the sup-
ply department. Probably that fact
had nothing to do with it, but Mr. John-
son returned November 20 suffering
with a severe cold.
A. Miller and I. Rosnosky repre-
sented the A. B. C. Mr. Miller read
a paper to the convention. There are
those who say it was the best of many
good ones.
Want an Apprentice?
At the meeting of the Commercial
Flower Growers of Chicago November
18 a communication from the Federal
Board for Vocational Education was
read, offering to greenhouse men in this
vicinity the opportunity to place slight-
ly disabled men at work as apprentices
at nominal, if any, wage. The board
pays, in the Chicago district, $100 per
month to such men, so that they are not
dependent upon their earnings and a
grower may pay just what he thinks
such services are worth. The board's
letter read as follows:
The Federal Board for Vocational Education,
providing training for former gervlce men who
haye been disabled. Is desirous of placing men In
greenhouses about Chicago. If a man has had
any previous experience in this line or seems
adapted to it, the Federal Board is anxious to
teach him this line of business thoroughly. Em-
ployers may pay a person in training whatever
they feel he is worth. The board pays a single
man in training in Chicago $100 a month; bo he
is not dependent on his work for a livelihood.
Anybody who has any openings where a man may
learn "on the job" will confer a favor on the
board by Informing it of that fact. Telephone
Harrison 8940 and ask for Mr. Rich.

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

next meeting. Consideration of the pa-
per of President Kohout on stabilizing
the market, published in The Review of
September 23, was also deferred till a
larger number of members might be
present.
Secretary Otto Amling reported on
"Say It with Flowers" week, the suc-
cess of which is thoroughly recognized
by the local trade. One new member,
Calvary Cemetery Greenhouses, was ad-
mitted.
R. J. Windier sent in bunches of two
pompon chrysanthemums as an exhibit.
At his request they were judged. Presi-
dent Kohout appointing George J. Ball
and Herbert Amling a committee for
this purpose. Seedling No. 5 was given
90 points and No. 13 was given 75
points. Honorable mention was
awarded the exhibitor. In this connec-
tion discussion ensued regarding the
staging of exhibits at each meeting as
a means of drawing a larger attend-
ance. While the plan was favored, it
was thought that the next meeting,
coming nine days be|fore Christmas,
would be an inopportune time to begin.

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

business was booming right then, with a
rush of high-class funeral work and
some good orders for social affairs. This
has been, thus far, one of the best sea-
sons in the experience of the E. Wien-
hoeber Co.
Visitors to the H. N. Bruns valley
forcing establishment on the west side
note with interest the marked difference
between various lots of stock. The ex-
planation is that the best stock came
from his regular growers near Ham-
burg, but that the crop in 1919 was
insufficient for the needs of his trade
and, to maintain his output, it was nec-
essary to force pips obtained from sev-
eral other sources, many of which, if
not blind, throw spikes which fail to
develop. The Bruns distribution of pips
extends from ocean to ocean, several
growers on the Pacific coast receiving
large weekly shipments. Mr. Bruns says
his brother at Hamburg took the crops
of his regular growers throughout the
war, although the pips could not be
shipped to America, and did well with
them in Germany, and, curiously enough,
found Bussia a specially profitable cus-
tomer. Steamers with refrigeration
service recently resumed fortnightly
sailings from Hamburg to New York.
The accession of over forty new re-
tailers to the membership list of the
Allied Florists' Association since au-
tumn activity commenced is looked upon
by the directors as evidence of the or-
ganization's recognized success in the
trade.
W. J. Nissen received word November
20 of the sudden death of his brother,
Adolph, at La Salle, 111. The body was

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

A. J. Zech accounts for last week's
boost in the market 's activity by point-
ing out that chrysanthemums had be-
come pretty well cleaned up everywero
within Chicago's shipping radius, with
the result that innumerable florists who
recently have been using their own

Chicago flowers. The increase in busi-

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

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

gardenias are coming in and bring $3
to $5 per dozen, but the quality is poor.

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

M. C. Wright, the well-known repre-
sentative of the Lord & Burnham Co.,
located in Chicago, is assuring his many
friends in the east that he is quite alive,
notwithstanding the report in an east-
ern contemporary that at the recent
meeting of the New York Florists' Club
a resolution of sympathy upon his death
was passed. It was reported at the
meeting that Mr. Wright had "cashed
in," but it was only as regards his
membership in the club, which he regret-
fully relinquished for the reason that
his field of activity for some time had
been outside the sphere of the club.
The approach of the Christmas season
is evidenced in the arrival of quantities
of lycopodium and other greens, which
are going into cold storage.

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

storage shed for bulbs is remarkable.
It is of great size, something like 30x480
feet, filled with ventilators and steam
pipes. Perfect in its arrangements, the
shed makes an ideal place for bulbs now
rooting outside.
Material for Easter, spring and
summer abounded. Concrete frames,
a personal achievement of Mr. Bickley,
were well made. The water system.

The American LegioiL
When a grower reaches that point of
success where he feels he may safely
venture on untrodden paths, or, to put it
differently, when he feels ambitious
enough to take a chance, he usually goes
to see Eobert Scott & Son or he goes to
see Edward Towill, It is easy to locate
the progressive, wide-awake rose grow-
ers* by calling at Sharon Hill or at Eos-
lyn. For there you see rose seedlings
galore. At Sharon Hill are the best
Irish seedlings of pedigree as well as
those raised there. At Roslyn are Teddy
Towill 's own.
Now, it so happened that Mrs. Pren-
tiss Nichols had been called upon at
home and vastly admired even before
her christening; so this call was at Ros-
lyn. That the visit was well timed was
shown by the fact that a very great
grower, who shall be nameless, was
there, already intent on securing stock
of a certain new cerise-colored rose seed-
ling, considered so promising that Mr.
Towill has a quantity planted out under
glass.
This seedling is the now famous Amer-
ican Legion, christened at the Armory
two weeks ago. Its forbears include

Hadley and Milady (Mr. Towill's own)
and Eosalind Orr English. It is so fine
a thing that Mr. Towill's admirers are
talking about American Legion and
American Beauty as though the rose list
ended right there. The great man was
evidently taken with the rose. Its un-
usual color, its vigor, its freedom of
bloom appealed to him. His name and
whether he decided to plant a house
with American Legion may not be here
disclosed. For this information you will
have to ask Edward Towill, of Koslyn.
Porto Elco.
The event of the week was the de-
parture of Eobert Craig for Porto Rico,
accompanied by two assistants and 150
bundles of sashbars. Mr. Craig sailed
from New York November 17. He will
go to his farm near San Juan. There
he will put in a water system and erect
sashbar houses. His idea is that sash-
bar houses will be more rigid than slat
houses and therefore not so easily blown
down. As soon as this work is com-
pleted dracffina canes and some other
specialties will be shipped him from
Norwood. They will be grown at the
farm in Porto Eico and 'sent back to
Norwood when ready. Since Porto Eico
is a part of our country, Quarantine
No. 37 does not affect these shipments.
It will be remembered that Mr. Craig
celebrated his golden wedding October
27. His enterprise is an inspiration to
us all.
Various Notes.
James A. Brown and Mrs. Brown,

Charles H. Grakelow received a hand-
some Chandler 7-passenger sedan from

casion of the gift was his enrolling of
1,004 new members, for which memor-
able night the Metropolitan Opera house
was secured.

prices are likely, but stock is shortening
up and with the early passing of chrys-

probable. No one anticipates as good

it looks as if about all available cut

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

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

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

23. A. K. Rogers represented the Gar-
deners' and Florists' Club. It is
planned to have exhibits, demonstra-
tions, lectures, etc., as in former years
and a full week will be given up to it.
Thomas F. Galvin, Jr., on Devonshire
street, while near the wholesale cut
flower section and some distance from
the retail part of the city, is doing a
thriving business and pulling in many
good orders. He keeps attractive win-
dow displays.
The Boston Floral Supply & Snyder
Co. is showing an extensive line of bas-
kets and other holiday articles. They
report business as good, both in the
cut flower and supply departments.
E. S. Webster, of Chestnut Hill, had
his greenhouse open to the public No-
vember 16 to 20 to allow visitors to
inspect the grand collection of winter-
flowering begonias, and large numbers
availed themselves of the privilege.
Peter Arnott, the superintendent here,
had an even finer display of beautifully
flowered plants than a year ago. Re-
markably fine were Optima, Mrs. Heal,
Rosalind, Exquisite, Winter Cheer and
numerous others of the English winter-
blooming section. In addition there
were numerous specimens of Glory of
Cincinnati, Melior, Gloire de Lorraine
and other better known varieties. Poin-
settias were good, as were cyclamens,
antirrhinums and mignonette. Among
carnations, Pink Delight, Laddie, Match-
less, Doris and Beacon were noteworthy.
Roses, cattleyas and other orchids, gar-
denias, ericas and other plants were all
in excellent condition and reflected
much credit on Mr. Arnott 's skill as a
grower.
Duncan Finlayson is spending a few
days in Washington.
William R. Nicholson, of Framingham,
Mass., had a grand lot of fancy crimson
mums for the Harvard-Yale game. He
has a splendid crop of pompons and
singles, and his carnations, in spite of
hail damage early in the summer, look
extremely well.
Boston had its first real snowstorm of
the season November 21. W. N. C.
Woodlynne, N. J. — Joseph A. Kelley,
for fourteen years a florist in the employ
of companies near Laurel Hill cemetery,
Philadelphia, Pa., has gone into business

SLOGAN SENTIMENTS.
Voices Virtues, Not Vices.
All of us are famUiar with the slogan.
We think it the best of any possessed
by any industry in the country, but how
many of us have taken the time to an-
alyze and dissect it to see what it really
means in our business! I was of the
opinion that I was familiar with all
hat "Say It with Flowers" meant as
business-getter until I started to study
subject; then I found that it start-
an endHess chain of possibilities. It
-applied to any good thing that
happens in any life, ho matter how long
that life may be, from the cradle to the
grave. You will note that I say any
good thing. Did you ever stop to think
that you cannot vilify or be sarcastic
when you "Say It with Flowers"? If
you think that you can, try it on some
known enemy, and instead of widening
the breach you will soon find the dove
of peace hovering about, bearing with it
the olive branch.
Even at a Prize Fight.
Only recently I was in the company
of a publicity expert, trying to get some
concession from the window dresser of
a large department store. My friend
was driving home arguments that the
window dresser could not gainsay; yet
the latter did not want to grant our re-
quest.
Finally he said, "What can you say
with your slogan, anyway t"
My friend replied: "I will answer
that question by asking one. What
can we not sayf "
Now, there is no doubt that this win-
dow dresser was trying to think of an
extreme case.
"Well," he replied, "how would you
say it at a prize fight?"
I will confess that I thought we were
stumped, but my friend, the publicity
man, answered, "If, after Jack Demp-
scy's last great battle, some loved one
had presented him with a basket of
roses, don't you think his heart would
have been touched?"
The window dresser smiled and said,
"You win. Even a prize fighter is
human after all."
We got our concession. But it seems
a sacrilege to speak of prize fights and
"Say It with Flowers" in the same
story. The above instance is merely
cited to show how easy it is to defend
the slogan, if it ever needs defense.
Expresses Sacred Thought.
I said in the beginning of this article
that the slogan could be applied to any
event of life from the cradle to thp
grave. Let us start at the beginning

and peep into the room where a new
life has been born; it matters not if it
is the home of a king or the most hum-
ble subject in his realm. A woman has
been through the valley of shadows.
Perhaps we shall see a uniformed nurse
with rubber-soled slippers moving about
noiselessly; the physician's orders are
strict; there is perfect quiet and no con-
versation to excite the patient. Loved
ones are anxious, but a strict discipline
must be maintained. It is then that an-
other language must be used, and when
the nurse shows the mother perhaps a
cradle filled with Sweetheart roses and
she reads the card attached, she realizes
that loved ones are waiting to share her
happiness. What joy it must bring to
that heart, already overflowing with
happiness! I may be accused of being
sentimental, but my object is to bring
home to readers how elastic our slo-
gan is. Take the humble laborer: He
has been away all day at his toil. Has
there been a minute of the day that his
thoughts have not been in that room
with those who are dear to him? He,
too, is having his Gethsemane. The
world cannot know what is going on in
that man's mind; it is too sacred. But
quitting time comes at last and he hur-
ries home. By the roadside he stops to
gather a bunch of wild flowers; perhaps
there is no vase in his home, but revci-
Pntly he places them in a tumbler, and,
ashamed of what he thinks is his own
weakness, he carries them to the bed-
side of his wife. When he sees the
light of appreciation on her face, are
-CO-
-OP-
- ER.
-ATION-
Cooperation is a name of something.
Cooperating is the name of that something w^hen it
is doing something.
Cooperated is the name of that something, after it
is done.
"Birds of a feather flock together."
But it takes more than one feather to feather a flock.
Or to say it another v^ay — you, ju^ for example,
believe in cooperation ; but you can't cooperate all
by yourself.
Co, besides being short for company, is the Latin
for with.
Now, you can't be with something, writhout being
with it.
Daddy Pochelon finally succeeded in getting that
through my head after writing me one thousand'six
hundred and thirty-three and a half letters.
He convinced me that the only way to get more
F. T. D. business was to work ivith (co) more' and
more F. T. Deers.
So 1 did. And 1 did. Try it and see.

those two souls not knit closer together,
and could anyone convince that man
that to "Say It with Flowers" is not
the best way in the world to express
what he feels? Speech may have failed
him, but those flowers carried his mes-
sage of love home as no words in the
English language could have done.
But these trying days are over and
the next is the christening; it may take
place in the grand cathedral, where the

Th« next important event in the

aJtar before wkiefa this service is ren-

Back to Boyhood.
Haw naay of you old business men,
as yen read this, cannot think back and
remeMbar the time when you said it to
the taaakar with flowers! It may have
been im a little red schoolhouse off in
the hills. Perhaps the receptacle that
held the flowers was only a bottle on
her desk, but did they not carry the
same message tkat Sa expensive box
from our most exclusive florist would
today t The language of flowers will
never be a dead one; the only change
since our boyhood is that we are becom-
ing better educated in it. Any well ed-
ucated man's desire is to use his educa-
tion for the good of mankind.
But I can hear some pessimists say that
this is all rot, that we want to boost
' * Say It with Flowers ' ' for the sake of
financial return. I say to such that
* ' the laborer is worthy of his hire, ' ' but
the florists owe it to the world to edu-
cate it to " Say It with Flowers. ' '
Is there anything selfish about your
national publicity committee? True, in
disseminating this education they are
bettering their own business and at the
same time yours, whether you are a sub-
scriber to the fund or not, but at the
same time they are bringing more hap-
piness and sunshine into this old world.
That is why Major O'Keefe has such
faith in the slogan. That is why adver-

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

formed that there will be a large num-
ber of debutantes this year, and the
more we have of these the larger the
season will be from the florists' stand-
point. The Harmonic social will take
place about the same time and, from all
I hear, more Hebrew young ladies will
make their bow this year than have for
a long time. The outlook Is for one of

last winter we did have a spell of cloudy
weather, for which they blamed the
sliortage.
The Maryland State Agricultural Col-
lege has installed a new feature, a fall
flower show. James Moss, son of Isaac
H. Moss, who is a student nt the col-
lege, has been appointed by the faculty
to be superintendent of the show. Every
florist in Baltimore wshes the college
all sorts of success in the venture. Hav-
ing two cities, Baltimore and "Washing-
ton, to draw from, this feature of tlir
college life should be made a permanent
attraction.
In one of our daily papers the writer
notes a florist's advertisement which
advises the public to "Express Your
Sentiments with Flowers." This may
be more elegant English than "Say It
with Flowers," but is it good business?
We must remember that thousands of
dollars are being spent in popularizing

the slogan; that the idea of a slogan is
to have a catchy phrase, and no one will
deny the fact that our slogan is com-
posed of four of the solidest words in
the English language.
Joseph S. Merritt and his entertain-
ment committee are putting in some
strenuous work arranging a program for
the club for the coming winter. The
idea of the committee is to have some-
thing instructive for each meeting. Ar-
rangements are being made with such
men as Joseph H. Hill, of Richmond,
Ind., Robert Pyle, of West Grove, Pa.,
and Max Schling, of New York, N. Y.
Lectures by such men as the above-
named will mean ladies' nights. Per-
haps it might be a good thing for the
club to liave every night a ladies' night.
Stevenson Bros, have a fine house of
Begonia Konkurrent. They are as finely
shaped plants as I have ever seen and
should fill in splendidly for the Christ-
mas holidays.
William H. Cochran has decided to
economize on his estate this winter and
not run his houses. John Rider was
about heartbroken to see his splendid
Russells abandoned; they were in fine
shape and most promising for this win-
ter. Tate.

Visitors to this charming and historic
old city are many and the trade is in
a healthy, flourishing condition. A good
deal of stock is shipped in from Los
Angeles, San Francisco, Denver and St.
Louis. The long journey over the desert
makes it difficult to get the stock from
the coast in good condition, tluugh for
the credit of the shippers it must be
said that they do it and do it well.
Edward Green, of Avenue 0 and
Eighth street, has in a few years worked
up a profitable busineti, which is still
developing into larger things. Both he
and Mrs. Green are «losely interested
in the business and the whole staff works
harmoniously and well.
F. C. Suchy is a born hustler and
imbues his staff with the same spirit.
He is busy all the time and so is every-
one there. Large shipments of mums
from the coast arrive in good shape and
Mr. Suchy is not making any wail about
hard times. Several decorations and
weddings were on the table last week.
Mrs. Charles Albrecht has the sym-
pathy of the trade in the loss of her hus-
band. She and her son are keeping the
business going and in good order.
Busy Bee Candy & Florist is all that
the name implies.
Stock looks fine at the greenhouses of
the Hanser Floral Co.

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

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

ance. They are being used mostly for
corsage work. Roses are fine, especially
in the longer grades. Columbia, Russell,
Ophelia, Sunburst, Milady, Premier and
Dunlop are the varieties most in evi-
dence. Carnations are making rapid im-
provement and some good stock was
seen last week. A few callaa, Easter
lilies and calendulas are coming in. With
stock 80 plentiful, there should be excel-
lent Thanksgiving business.
In potted plants the sale is a little
slow yet, although there are some fine
plants in chrysanthemums, cyclamens,
primulas and begonias.
Duluth has experienced one of the best
autumn seasons in many years. The bulb
trade has been exceptionally good. The
call for poppies for Armistice day was
greater than last year.
Various Notes.
.1. J. Le Borious has some fine chrys-
anthemums which he is just beginning to
cut. They are the varieties Bonnaffon,
Enguehard and White Bager. His car-
nation houses at Woodland are in splen-
did condition and will be in heavy crop
at Christmas. He is the first florist in

This lias been a busy week, especially
with the wholesalers. They have had
enough stock to take care of orders and
no surplus. With the retailers orders
have been heavy almost every day. The
feeling prevailed that Thanksgiving was
going to be a big day and that from then
on the season would be active. The mum
situation is satisfactory. Apparently
there will be no surplus, but the crop
is in fine shape. Not much change in

The Market.
Business was jjood duriiij; tin/ week
before Thauksgivinj^, witli almost every
thing in cut tlowers a little scarce. Ciir
nations are perha]is the hea\iest in suji-
ply. Prices remain the same, $4 to $G.
Roses arc excellent in quality, but bare-
ly meet the domaiul. ('liadwicks are
about all that are left in chrysanthe-
mums and the pompons are fjoinj? fast.
Sweet peas are arriving in greater quan-
tities and better quality, but are still
short of the demand.
Mum plants are gone. There are
plenty of fine begonias and cyclamens to
he had, as well as Boston ferns.
Various Notes.
Fred C. Schumann is bringing in sonic
nice sweet peas and calendulas.
The Elitch Gardens Co. is cutting
some fine Yellow Chadwiek.
The Central Flower Shop last week
had an attractive window display of
large vases of carnations set off by Bos-
ton ferns and small baskets of sweet
peas.
Many out-of-town florists were visitors
last week. Among them were Waldemar
Fleischer, of Pueblo; Carl Espelin, of
Fort Collins; Mr. Hansen and Mr. Erick
son, of Hansen & Erickson. Greeley,
Colo., and Afrs. Ed. Hemphill, of Syd
ney. Neb. ^- ^^- ^■
INDIANAPOLIS. IND
The Market.
The chrvsantheniuni sea.son is in its
decline. Some good varieties still re
main, but most of them are gone. In
the large tvi)es there are still Whitlicr,
Seidewitz, Chadwiek and a few Turner.
Of the ponii)ons. Wilcox is a favorite.
Roses are scarce and prices have re-
inaincd almost stationary. In spite ot
the mums, roses have been in good de
niand and all axailable have been sell
ing readilv.
With the decreiiM' in tli. quantity ot
.hrysanthemuins, i-arnations are now
resuming their place of prominence in
the market. The quality h;is been good
this fall and the price of goo,l stock
has remained all season at about $4.
With the increasing demand, they have
risen in price from .fo to $8 per hundred.
Some good Laddie has been coming into
the market at $8 per hundred.
A few calla lilies have been putting
in an appearance an.l are welcome addi-
tions. There are no Easter lilies >weet

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

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

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

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

when pink bouvardias and Ophelia roses

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

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

NOT IN FIiANDERS' FIELDS.
The poppies that you see in the illus-
tration on this page are not growing in
the immortal fields of Flanders — they are
not that kind of poppy, either. These
were Shirley poppies at the seed farms
of James Vick's Sons, in the vicinity
of Eochester, N. Y. This was one of
several good fields of poppies which the
firm had this season. To the left of the
field of poppies are annual larkspurs
and just beyond the latter can be had a
glimpse of a field of pansy violet. This
year, according to its own report, the
firm had good crops of candytuft, lark-
spur, pansy violet. Phlox Drummondii,
Gaillardia grandiflora, calendula and
sweet William. James Vick 's Sons have
been growing these crops for a number
of years in addition to their aster crops
and have good success with them. They
believe that the seeds grown at Eoches-
ter produce better crops than those
grown in an entirely different climate.
The photograph of the fields was taken
a few weeks ago by James A. Wiebens,
manager of the wholesale department.
At a distance, in the illustration, can
be seen a dry house, with a barn at its
right, and at the left the superinten-
dent's house.
SEED PRICES HIGHER?
Field of Shirley Poppies at the Seed Farms of James Vick's Sons.
Danish Firm Tlilnks So.
As was stated in an article in The Be-
view last week, the seed crop this year
in Denmark is much smaller than usual.
Hjalmar Hartmann & Co., of Copenha-
gen, prophesy that this reduction in
production will result in increased prices
for seed for the new crop of 1920. They
claim that, as the culture has been re-
duced on account of the decline in seed
prices, so the reduction of crop will re-
sult in a remarkable advance in prices.
The remaining acreages under cultiva-
tion, even when in good shape and prom-
ising comparatively large yields, cannot
make up for the shortage.
The following is a summary of the
garden seed situation in Denmark:
Beans, Peas — Small acreage planted. The sum-
mer was unfavorable; the harvest will be small.
Cauliflower — The planting was dIfficuU, as the
spring weather hindered cultivation of soil.
Planting, therefore, was considerably delayed.
Nevertheless, the plants developoil amazingly

well and a good yield Is expected. It is, how-
ever, rather ditJleult to conclude upon the final
turning out of this kind of seed, as many a time
the same promising signs for a good yield pre-
vailed, while the threshing brought disillusion-
ment.
White Cabbage, Savoy Cabbage, Brussels
SproutB — The early varieties will yield small
crops only. The culture was started on rather
reduced acreage, and sowing and wintering suc-
ceeded well, until, as often is the case in early
spring, unfavorable weather partly destroyed the
plants. Much acreage had to be partly or en-
tirely plowed up and the remaining had to strug-
gle against several enemies during the develop-
ment, blooming and seed setting. The weather
was unfavorable; moreover, attacks by Insects
occurred, so that many a field which on an earlier
date was called promising rendered a small
yield. The earlier cabbage varieties are ifkely
to yield less tlmn half of a normal crop. Late
cabbage varieties as well as Savoy cabbages and
Brussels sprouts were promising during a certain
period in summer and apparently yield better
than the earlier sorts. They will, however, most
likely give below a medium crop.
Red Cabbage — Planting considerably reduced.
Otherwise the same prospects as of the late cab-
bage varieties.
Carrots — Sowing was considerably reduced.
Wintering succeeded well, but the cold and damp
summer proved unfavorable to the development
of the plants. It seems, however, that the seed
setting was quite satisfactory, so that normal
yield may be expected. Nevertheless, only small
parcels of this kind of seed will be available to
the trade this year, chiefly on account of the
small acreages.
Radishes— Small acreages only were planted.
The early summer was unfavorable. Somewhat
later the weather improved, hut the harvest will
remain backward and be difflcult for that rea-
son. A certain amount of seed of comparatively
low germination will probably be offered in the
market. We anticipate the yield of good trade
seed to be one-half of a normal crop. The same
applies to the late radish varieties, of which only
small acreages were planted.
Splnaches — Owing to the large stock carried
over from recent years, small acreages were
planted. They will yield normally, but the crop
is so limited that earlier or later shortage of
this seed is anticipated.
Table Beets — Plenty of root material for win-
tering was at hand in the autumn of 1919, but
the declining prices caused the farmers to aban-
don seed growing and rather feed their cattle
upon the roots In spring. The present crop is
half the size of last year's. Although the fields
have stood promising hitherto, it is yet impossible
to estimate the final turning out of seeds. If
beet seed is offered at low prices. It is of for-
mer years' crop and a great deal of it might
show poor quality.
Table Turnips, Table Swedes — The cultures of
these kinds of seed were reduced more than those
of any other crop. Only one-third of former
vears' acreage was planted and even this, to a
large extent, was plowed up. The summer was
comparatively favorable to its development and
during a certain time the jirosperts were ap-
parently good, but attacks l>y insects reduced
the crops so that the yield of turnips in partic-
ular may be called a failure. Swedes yielded
somewhat better; nevertlieless. only small <pian-
tlties of new crop will lie offered for sale this
.year. The planting for 19121 being still more
limited, a considerable advance in prices will he
a mere question of time.

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

NEWS OF THE NURSERY TRADE

Plantings of perennials seem to be
augmented for next season.
Predictions are general that the scar-
city of nursery stock will be almost as
keen in 1921 as it was this season.
Some nurserymen will be interested in
the opportunity offered them by the Fed-
eral Board for Vocational Education to
take returned soldiers as apprentices in
their establishments, as explained in the
article on another page of this issue
headed, "Here's a Chance for Help."
CALIFORNIA NURSERYMEN.
Meet at Pasadena Next Year.
Pasadena, Cal., was chosen as the next
convention city of the California As-
sociation of Nurserymen at the closing
session of its convention, reported in a
previous issue of The Keview. The last
session was Saturday morning, Novem-
ber 1.3, and, after a lively debate, Pasa-
dena's invitation was accepted. Tho
election of oflScers for the coming year
was also held at this session and result-
ed as follows: President, Roy F. Wil-
cox, of Montebello; vice-president, J.
W. Barnicott, Newcastle; secretary-
treasurer, Henry W. Kruckeberg, Los
Angeles. The executive committee is
composed of J. D. Meriwether, Ontario;
Fred H. Howard, Los Angeles; Max J.
Crow, Gilroy, and E. B. Washburn, Pasa-
dena.
Interesting Addresses.
Some interesting addresses given dur-
ing the convention included "Fruits
that Pay and Some that Don't," by
the new vice-president, J. W. Barnicott,
who is a director of the Nurserymen's
Bud Selection Association, Newcastle,
Cal. The subject of bud selection was
discussed at length in the various ad-
dresses presented before the convention,
among the speakers on this subject be-
ing Max J. Crow, secretary-treasurer of
the Nurserymen's Bud Selection Asso-
ciation, Gilroy, Cal., who gave an ac-
count of the organization and develop-
ment of this association. J. H. Bone-
steel, of Kingsburg, and William T.
Kirkman, Jr., of Fresno, also spoke on
the subject of bud selection.
The new president, Roy F. Wilcox,
addressed the convention on the sub-
ject of "Growing Plants Formerly Im-
ported." The subject was an interest-
ing one and showed what strides Cali-
fornia has made in introducing the cul-
ture of foreign plants in home nurseries.
Ladies Join Convention.
Friday evening, November 12, there
was a joint meeting of the association
and the ladies' auxiliary, and a most
enjoyable evening resulted. Besides
some excellent muiical numbers, the fol-
lowing addresses were given:
"PHrks and Trees as Memorials," by Mrs. W.
A. Fitzgerald, of Fresno.
"Upsetting Theories," by Mrs. F. E. Cook, of
Fresno.
"The Home Garden," by Mrs. J. H. Plerson, of
Fresno.
"The Oarden Hobby," by Johannes Relmers,
San Leandro.
"To Better Serre the Cnnnlnc Industry," by
Mrs. H. C. Merrltt, Jr., TaRim Ranch, Tulare.
"Obserratlona on Farming," by Mrs. Robert
Hargrave, Maderii.
"A Bigger and Finer California," by A. G.
Wishon, Fresno.
"Botarlan Message to Nursery Craft," by Jer-
ome 0. Cross, Fresno.
Mrs. W. A. Fitzgerald, vice-president
of the California Federation of Wom-
an's Clubs, acted as chairman for the

BLUE SPRUCE FROM SEED.
When and how should seeds of blue
spruce be planted to insure best results?
L. K. F. C— N. Y.
Sow early in May in open frames.
Prepare a fine compost, free from stones
and weeds; make a level surface and
water well. Then broadcast the seeds,
covering them with soil sifted through
a fine screen. Give them a mulch of
half-decayed leaves and remove this as
the germination of seed starts. Protect
the sides and top of frames with fine
wire or lath screens to keep out birds
and animals. Leave the lath screens on
except in showery weather, when they
are better removed. These screens
should be left on the little seedlings all
through the summer. No transplanting
should be done the first season.

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

ETAKSVILLE, HUD.
The Maxket.
The ohTTsanthemum is the king of
flowers just now and is in great demand
for all occasions. Funeral work con-
stitutes the chief demand. Boses and
carnations are good and in fair supply.
The temperature has been rather be-
low normal for this early in the season,
going as low as 18 degrees last week.
AH Souls' day and All Saints' day were
two big days for the florists here, there
being an immense amount of stock used,
mostly mums and pompons. Everybody
is preparing for a brisk Thanksgiving
trade.
Various Notes,
The Lockyear Floral Co. received its
lily bulbs a few days ago and Mr. Klutz
says of course they will be late for
Easter.
M, H. Lockyear, who is president of
the Lockyear Business College, is nego-
tiating with eastern school men for the
sale of the college here, he to remain as
president. There will be but little change
in the business except for improvement.
Mr. Lockyear is spoken of as a probable
candidate for mayor next spring.
Mrs. J. C. Elspermann is enjoying good
business. All Souls ' and All Saints ' days
were extra big for her, as her Catholic
trade is big at all times.
The Blackman Floral Co. is cutting
extra fine mums, carnations and roses.
Business is excellent.
Karl Zeidler reports lots of business.
Niednagel & Sons are enjoying a good
trade. Their mums, roses and carnations
are fine.
Eoyston & Fenton have things pretty
well in shape for the winter. They have
a little more piping to do yet in order
to keep warm enough. They are work-
ing up a large stock of geraniums for
wholesale. The varieties are Poitevine
and Bicard. E. L. F.

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

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

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

KNOXVILLE, TENN.
The Market.
The weather has been unusually cool
for the last two weeks and business has
been good. Numerous social events
have created a great demand for flow-
ers, A number of prominent weddings
have taken place recently and the flo-
rists have come in for a good share of
the proceeds in the way of decorations
and bouquets. There has also been a
heavv demand for funeral flowers.
A "hard freeze early in the month put
iin end to outdoor flowers, and the only
source of supply now is greenhouse
stock. The growers are cutting some
excellent stock, which under ordinary
conditions would be an ample supply,
but owing to the unusually heavy de-
mand there has been a scarcity, and on
scv(M-:il occasions of late the florists
wore forced to use a few artificial flow-
cis ill funeral work.
The current retail i)rice of chrysan-
themums is $4 to $15 per dozen; pompon
chrysanthemums, $2 1o $3 per dozen
sprays; roses, $2 to $12 per dozen; car-
nations, $2 i)er dozen; narcissi, $2 per
dozen; sweet peas, $4 and $.3 per hun-
dred; orchids, $2 and $;i each. In plants,
cvclamens sell at $3.50 to $10; begonias,
.f'.') to $10; pomi)on chrysanthemums, $1
to $3, and ferns at $1.50 to $10.
Various Notes.
The prospects for Thanksgiving busi-
ness were good. The only drawback
seemed a possible scarcity of stock, but
the growers believed they could furnish
enough for all demands.
The Knoxville party at the state con-
vention at Memphis was made up of
Addison J. McNutt, G. M. Bentley,
Charles L. Baum, Karl P. Banm and
Roy L. Baum. They report an enthu-
siastic and interesting meeting.
Baum's Home of Flowers held its fall
opening Monday, November 22, from
12 until 10 p. m. The interior of the
store had recently been remodeled and
was beautifully decorated for the open-
ing. There was a gorgeous display of
chrvsanthemums, roses, carnations, or-
chids, ferns, cyclamens, begonias, palms
and everything that goes to make up
a beautiful decoration. Every person
visiting the store was given a flower as
a souvenir, and the opening was a great
success from an advertising point of
view.

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

PITTSBURGH, PA.
The Market.
The Piltstmrgh market has been fair-
ly active, the wholesale houses cleaning
up every day, with a shortage of chrys-
authemunis and carnations.
Eoses are up to the winter standard
of quality, but there are not enough
of the better varieties. Some good
stevias and calendulas are helping out
and lilies are more plentiful. Yellow
daisies are good, but the stems are still
short. Orchids have been scarce and
in good demand. Pompon chrysanthe-
mums are more popular than ever. Box-
wood and ground pine are the active
greens, as everyone seems to be calling
for his stock now, to avoid the expe-
riences of other years. Florists getting
boxwood early can put it in a cool, damp
place and keep it for months.
Business is generally reported good.
Among the larger houses a number of
weddings helped to increase the volume
of business.

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

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

41 Foot 3 Inch House
fSi^
For general growing purposes, this is the finest
house in the medium width class.
It is an odd width, but that very oddity works
out to your benching advantage, giving six
benches, each 4 feet 0 inches wide.
The side of the house is 7 feet high.
The height of the ridge is 17 feet 3 inches.
See Handy Hand Book for other standard widths.

Vacuum Heating System
'IXT'E show here a view
of the boiler room
end of our vacuum heat-
ing system.
The system mentioned
was installed by us last
winter for the Rock-
port Greenhouse Co. of
West Park, Ohio, and
is a typical modern
system.
This method of hand-
ling the water of con-
demn sat ion in steam
heating plants having
50,000 ft. or more of
glass area is unsur-
passed.
We have installed many
such systems, and they
are all giving entire
satisfaction.

FORMOSUM LILIES throw more flowers than any other variety. Plant as late as January \
for Decoration Day. Grow cool ; need no forcing. Put your Giganteum in storage, as the new
crop is very short. If you desire to take advantage of this low offer on FORMOSUM, we will
place same in storage and deliver to you as wanted. FORMOSUM do well when planted as late
as May. The fact that Giganteum are so scarce will prove this to be a good purchase.

All advance orders have been filled. We can now accept additional orders and ship immediately. Start

REFRIGERATORS
FOR ALL PURPOSES
CAnd, for the Floral
Trade in ^articular^^
/ 'I HK McCray Refrigerator is the favorite with
V- / the floral trade. Many successful Florists have
used McCray Refrigerators for years and years
with perfect satisfaction. They have unbounded
confidence in the refrigerator which bears the name
"McCray" for it stands for quality and unequalled
service.
Viewed solely from the selling end, the McCray has
superior qualities — for it aids in selling flowers and
at the same time puts a stop to waste from SF>oil-
age. The various compartments are of different
sizes and accomodate the different lengths of cut
flowers.
Both the exterior and the interior of the McCray
Florist Refrigerators are handsomely made and
easy to keep clean. You may have either heavy
plate mirror or white enamel for the interior lining.
The exterior may be of any finish to match your
woodwork or fixtures.
There is a McCray built to suit your requirements.
The styles illustrated here are designed for Florists,
but this is not our complete line. Our Catalog No.
74 shows many more refrigerators. Get a copy of
this Catalog — it will tell you more about the Mc-
Cray and what it will mean to your business.
Send for Catalog — Let us send you a catalog that
describes a great variety of designs — one to suit
every requirement: No. 74 for Florists; No. 71 for
Grocers and Delicatessens; No. 63 for Meat Mar-
kets and General Stores; No. 95 for Residences;

Effect:
You may be intereSed to know that as a result of a small ad (it coft $2.22) in the Classified columns of The
Review laS spring we not only sold considerable quantities of Yucca, but this week as a diredl result of that ad hav*
sold a carload of this plant to one firm. As it takes about twenty-five acres to produce this order, we are led to
believe that probably the Classified ad mentioned has produced as much value as any appearing in your very valuable
publibation. — Robin Bonwell, Basin, Wyoming, November 22, 1920.

CYCLAMEN
Why cyclamen purchased from us will give
entire satisfaction and make you the most money:
Our Shipping Facilities:
Exceptional facilities for southern and southwest points.
Express Office in our packing room insures less rough handling.
Main lines New York Central Lines and Pennsylvania for east and
west shipments, and C. & E. I. and Illinois Central for north and
south shipments.
Plants Now Coming Into Bloom Strong.
Large stock to select from; first come, first choice.
The most discriminating buyers are inspecting, buy-
ing our stock and giving us repeat orders.
(We have the varieties and the quality.)
NO PACKING CHARGE.
What our customers say about our quality and packing:
From North Carolina:
"It is with great pleasure and satisfaction to report to you that the shipment of cyclamen reached me in first-
class condition. I give you full credit for the way you packed the shipment. That's the way to pack plants,
and not just slap them in like so many shippers are doing nowadays. Everyone seems to be mighty anxious to
sell goods and get the money, but don't give a rap how goods reach the buyer. Enclosed find check for
additional order."
From Arizona:
"Duplicate our order of the 24th; did not think shipment could be made this far."
"Received 400 cyclamen from the east and they can't touch youra. "
"Cyclamen arrived; well pleased with quality and they were packed fine."
"Enclosed find check for $360.00; eyes arrived in fine shape and we are well pleased with the stock."
Not the cheapest that are offered, because quality stock cannot be
^ . , had cheap. Nor the highest prices, because we have a large quan-
tity and can afford to share profits with you; just the best that
can be had for the money.

CHECK COMPLAINTS
ON HIGH PRICES
LeVs show the public why floivers cost more to grow than they ever
did before mid why their prices cannot fall as other cormnodities are falling.
Now is the time to do the trade and the public real service by obviating
criticism of flower prices, so common at Christmas.
wmm
OEE dangerous in its in-
fluence on the sale of
flowers than the reaction
caused by depression in
certain industries accom-
panying the present busi-
ness readjustment is the
belief engendered by daily
newspapers that the prices
asked by florists are un-
duly high. This is no new topic, par-
ticularly for the month of December.
It seems, however, to have sprung up
earlier than usual this season and to
have been given more prominence in
public print. In Chicago this promi-
nence occurred at an unfortunate time,
the day before Thanksgiving, the same
day that the dailies of that city car-
ried a conspicuous amount of florists'
advertising, done by leading retailers
and the Allied Florists' Association. In
both the morning papers apjieared mat-
ter which, whether so calculated or not,
could not but discourage flower buying.
Misrepresentation.
In the Tribune, in a conspicuous col-
umn, was a story of high food costs,
ending with a statement quoted as
coming from Eussell J. Poole, secretary
of the city council committee on living
costs, which wound up with the para-
graph which appears in the box on this
page. In the Herald and Examiner,
Chicago's other morning paper, ap-
peared the cartoon reproduced at the
bottom of this page. This strip, which
is occupied daily by the adventures of
Barney Google, .'i])]i<'nrs not only in a
conspicuous position in the Herald and
Examiner, but also in many other news-
papers throughout the country, to which
it is supplied by the King Feature
Syndicate.
The slogan of the Tribune, "The
World's Greatest Newspaper," and
that of the Herald and Examiner,
"And as for the florists, they
are attempting the biggest rob-
bery of all. The young man who
attempts to say it with flowers
this Thanksgiving faces bank-
ruptcy."— From statement by sec-
retary of city council committee
on living costs, in Chicago Trib-
une, November 24.
"Largest Three Cent Morning Circula-
tion in the World," may or may not be
accepted as strictly accurate by all
readers; nevertheless, they are the
morning reading of the citizens of the
third largest city in the world and of a
large number of people in Illinois and
adjacent states. Material in their
columns is given a wide circulation and
its influence is great. The result was
that the money which the florists of
Chicago, through the Allied Florists'
Association, spent to advertise flowers
for Thanksgiving on one page was dis-
counted by what met readers' eyes on a
later page. Some readers who perused
the florists' advertisement going down-
town on the street cars or elevated
trains the morning before Thanksgiving
said to themselves, "I guess I'll get
some flowers for tomorrow" — and
some of them, after they had read Rus-
sell J. Poole 's remark on a later page,
said, "I guess I won'tl" Just the pre-
cise result to florists of such adverse
publicity cannot be determined, but
that there was a result not beneficial
to the trade cannot be doubted.
Protest.
In protest to the quotation from Mr.
Poole which appeared in the Chicago
Tribune, The Review wrote a letter
to the editor of that newspaper suggest-
ing that a fairer presentation of facts
be made the public. One of the re-
sults of the letter was its apjiearance —
with some omissions — in the depart-
ment headed "Voice of the People,"
in the Tribune November 26. The
letter actually written November 24
was as follows:
At the pnd of the article which appeared In
the right-hand coiumn of page 17 of this morn-
ing's Tribune appeared the following statement,
quoting Russeil J. Poole, "And as for the florists,
they are attempting the biggest robbery of all.
Tlie young man who attempts to say it with
flowers this Thanlcagiving faces banliniptcy."
This statement is more than an exaggeration;
it is a false assertion which puts in a wrong
light iin entire trade in the territory in which
the Tribune circulates. It brands an entire
group of men and women because the truth is not
known in their behalf.
Actually, prices of flowers are little above
what they were a year ago. During the year
coal has advanced tremendously in cost and
labor has kept close upon its heels. These
two items form the principal expense in growing
flowers. The florist, so far from committing
robbery, is in reality working on smaller margin
than ever before, and is bearing part of the
advance in cost instead of passing it all along
to tlie consumer.
Wouldn't a news story regarding tills feature
of flower costs be as goo<I material for your
columns as are explanations of grocers' and
butcliers' iiigli prices?
Blame.
Of course, we all understand that, in
endeavoring to strike a humorous note,
both the cartooiiis't in Mr. Hearst's
liapcr, the Herald and Examiner, and
the reporter on the Tribune staff in
quoting Mr. Poole, shot their shaft at
florists without ever a thought of the
mark they hit. They had been used to
making quips about high prices in the
various lines and drew no distinctions
between justified high prices and un-
justifiably high prices. To them the
high price of flowers is in the same
class as the high price of sugar or silk
shirts. They know the bottom fell out
of the latter two when the cost of raw
materials went down. They don 't know
that the bottom cannot drop out of the

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

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

WINDOW WINS BUSINESS.
A recent disjilav window of the Win-
ter Floral Co., Charleston, W. Ya., at-
tracted much attention .and has actually
been effiM'tive in stimulating the linn's
telegrajih business to a considerable ex-
tent.
In the extreme front of this window
and elevated somewhat was a telegraph
instrument. Piled around it were num-
bers of telegrams. Telegraph wirrs ex-
tended from the instrument over minia-
ture poles and terminated at the north
pole of a gl(d)e of the earth, at the other
end of the window. On one side of
the telegraph line ran a miniature elec-
tric train of two cars. The banner on
one read "Winter P'loral Co. Special,"
and on the other "Say It with Flowers
for All Occasions." This train disap-
peared into a tunnel beneath a mountain
which sujijiorted tlie globe and the track
eircled back behind a canK>uflage of
ferns, emerging again behind the tele-
grajih instrument.
On the other side of the telegraph line
ran a road of white sand on which was
placed a toy delivery truck filled with
flower boxes labeled, "Special Delivery
from the Winter Floral Co." In the
center of the window was a pond filled
with goldfish and a doll boy fishing on
the bank.
The backgi-oiiud w;is of auluiiiii
foliage, with telegrams ]nniii'd fn tlir
foliage in jirofusion. Pl.ant jiots .'iml
sheet moss were employed for the floor
covering. A few mums and ]>oiiipons
were displayed. A sign in the front of
the window read, "Do you know that
wherevi>r telegrams go, tlowcrs may go
loo,' Florists every when' arc rcadx'
to serve jjatrons id' this store tliroiigli
the F. T. D. (Florists' Telegraph De
livery Association)."
HARMONIOUS COMBINATION.
There is no end to the making oi'
basket arrangements, because there is
no end to tlie combinations th'' tlorist
may make of the material at his dis-
posal. From the strictest and simplest
use of one variety of rose, for example,
to the inclusion of many difl'ereiit flow-
ers, there are many gradations, and in
the material that m;iy be combined there
is wide variety. What is always needed
is that eye for harmonious combination
which is the florist's greatest asset.
On this jiage is illustrated a basket
from one of flhicago's foremost florists,
an example of a hai)py juxtaposition of
a number of flowers. Tin y were selected
with care .and jilaccd with skill, with a
most j)lcasing result. W. .1. Smyth, from
whose store this basket c.'iinc, has found

venir and other details having had due
attention. Of course Mr. Weber's store
was thronged and it was a highly suc-
cessful affair from his point of view.
Now let us consider the general trade
view: Not all the people who saw Mr.
Weber's splendid ads were near his
store that week, but flowers had been
brought attractively to their attention,
so they bought some from their regular
florist or at any convenient place. So
all the retail florists in St. Louis and
wherever St. Louis newspapers are read
benefited more or less by Mr. Weber's
enterprise. And if the retailers profited,
so did the St. Louis wholesalers and
growers, even the Chicago wholesalers
and growers, the supply houses, plants-
men — everybody.
Yes, it's boosters like Fred "Eed C. "
Weber who make the florists' business
grow. Let's help 'em all we can.

F. T. D. PRICES INFLATED?
I should like to know wliat others think
of some of the price lists sent by large
F. T. D. florists to us little fellows in
smaller places. It seems to me there
are some inflated prices in some of these,
which will put a damper on F. T. D.
business instead of pushing it.
I have just received one such price
list. This may contain this florist's
regular prices; I do not know. But when
he asks $25 per dozen for Eussell roses
at retail, when the highest prices quoted
on any wholesale list I have received
are only $35 per hundred or $4.20 per
dozen, it looks like an inflated price.
How can he expect the average florist
in the average town to take F. T. D.
orders for him at such prices?
Highest quotations on carnations are
$8 per hundred. He quotes them at $4
and $5 per dozen. Columbia wholesales
at $25 per hundred for the best. He
quotes them at $25 per dozen, with the
lowest grade at $10, which should be
not far off from the best grade at retail,
allowing a good margin for overhead
expenses and still doubling his money.
Other flowers are quoted as high, propor-
tionately.
I sent out a few telegraph orders for
Thanksgiving and charged a fair price.
I sent out one for mums at $10 per
dozen; also one for roses at $10 per
dozen. But when it comes to asking
such prices as this florist wants, it's
going too far, I think, for the good of the
trade in general.
Do you think this will help the florists'
trade, or will it hurt us all? It may be
all right in a few instances to charge
those prices, but how can the average
florist charge, and the average customer
pay them? The public will buy some-
thing else in preference. In that way
the entire florists' trade, and the tele-
graph business especially, is damaged
instead of boosted.
I should like to know what some other
florists think of this same thing. They
no doubt have received such price lists.
A few only, I am glad to say, seem to
be inflating their prices so much; the
majority of F. T. D. members, some in
much larger places than this one is, who,
no doubt, give just as good service,
furnish the same grade of stock at half,

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

DETROIT'S NEWEST STORE.
One of the finest stores in Detroit,
Mich., was opened the week of November
8 when Papes Bros., Inc., opened their
new L-shaped store on Woodward ave-
nue. The site is an excellent one. The
store has two entrances. It is reported
to be the largest flower store in Detroit.
The fixtures are from the A. L. Ean-
dall Co., Chicago, and are of the best.
The decorations at the time of open-
ing, as may be noted in the illustra-
tions on page 25, were mostly chrysan-
themums, palms and ferns. The two up-
to-date refrigerators make an excellent
showing and are decidedly an ornament.
Tall basket vases of chrysanthemums

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

Other grades moved down also, so that
a good quality was procurable at $4 to
$5 per dozen, and clearances were ac-
complished all around. Retailers report
a satisfactory business, but many assert
that they could have done much more
business at prices more nearly normal.
Boses sold well because they were not
in heavy supply. Carnations sold for
the same reason, the price range, $8 to
$12, covering a great quantity of short-
stemmed flowers which ordinarily would
be taken only for funeral work. Paper
White narcissi hung fire at 75 cents
per bunch and had to be closed out at
50 cents, with Soleil d'Or at 75 cents.
Cattleyas met a fair demand at
50 cents to $1.50 each, a few bringing
$2 for extra quality. Lily of the
valley was plentiful, and moved slowly
within a range of $8 to $25 per hundred
sprays, the higher price being for a
quality rather better than the ordinary
top grade. White lilies were in small
demand.
The Market.
Friday and Saturday, November 26
and 27, arrivals were light in character
and prices were not materially changed.
Monday, November 29, arrivals were
with the demand for them less than
ordinary. The price range is 50 cents
to $1.50, the latter figure including
hybrids. Oncidiums and cypripediums
are available in small quantity, but
sales of them appear to drag. A few
gardenias are coming in.
White lilies are scarce, but sales of
them are not at all active. Lily of the
valley is fairly plentiful and moves
slowly.
Sweet peas are not overplentiful and
meet a fair demand. Growers complain
that plantings now coming into flower
have suffered from bud-dropping due
to dark weather. White lilac has made
an appearance and 50 cents per spray
is the asking price. Stevia is arriving
in some quantity, and the quality is
good. Arrivals of Paper White nar-
cissi are increasing and sales drag at
50 cents per bunch. Bouvardia is plen-
tiful. Calendulas, myosotis, snap-
dragons and pansies are among the mis-
cellaneous offerings. Violets are some-
what scarce.

there appears to be a sufliciency to meet

A number of Thanksgiving day func-

in the best residential sections had
some good business. J. G. Leikens had
the W. K. Vanderbilt dinner decoration,
which called for a yellow color scheme
to harmonize with the famous Vander-
bilt gold dinner service.

his single-stemmed chrysanthemums
and is preparing to plant some of the
empty beds with sweet peas. His car-

a bench of the new Hope Henshaw,
which is showing grand color and form.

A NEW SMALL CULTIVATOE.
A small wheel cultivator was invented
a year or so ago by a New York clergy-
man, who was an enthusiastic gardener.
The cultivator teeth have a spring ad-
justment, permitting them to work back
and forth, breaking the shock and pul-
verizing the surface soil, so it makes a
perfect mulch, which conserves the soil
moisture, thus greatly benefiting the
growing crop. It is inexpensive, light
and durable and is particularly valuable
for use in small gardens or in beds where
the rows are planted closely.
LANG BUYS GBEEN BANQE.
Third Largest rirm in Southwest.
Purchase of the holdings of the Green
Floral Co. makes the Lang Floral &
Nursery Co., at Dallas, Tex., the third
largest firm of flower growers south
and west of Chicago, according to Otto
Lang, president and general manager.
This range, consisting of about 200,000
feet of glass, was built by Colonel E. H.
R. Green, the son of the late Hetty
Green, at a cost of $500,000 and was
later owned by Seth Miller. The prop-
erty includes forty-seven acres of land
and residences for the employees. In ad-
dition to this acquisition, the Lang
Floral & Nursery Co. has purchased the
50,000 feet of glass of the Haskell
Avenue Floral Co., also of Dallas.
Besides its recent purchases, holdings
of this company include its Richmond
Hill range of about 50,000 feet of glass,
35,000 feet of glass on McKinney
avenue and about the same amount on
Ross avenue. There are seventy-five
acres in nurseries on McKinney avenue,
in west Dallas and at Richmond Hill.
Improvements planned by the company,
according to Mr. Lang, include the re-
stocking, rebuilding and enlargement of
its greenhouses. For the improvements
to the grounds, 175,000 gladiolus corms,
25,000 tuberoses and many dahlia roots
have been bought. Irrigation systems
will be installed throughout the grounds.
Bapid Growth of Business.
The growth of the Lang Floral &
Nursery Co. has been exceedingly rapid
in the last few years. Commencing in
1898 with a capital of less than $1,000,
the company was in 1910 incorporated
for $46,000 and in 1912 this was in-
creased to $70,000. A further increase
was made January 1, 1920, when the
company was recapitalized for $200,000,
following some extensive improvements,
including the purchase for $30,000 of a
tract of land planted to evergreens and
roses, the addition of three greenhouses
to the Haskell avenue range, the build-
ing of a 2-story brick office building and
a large 2-story brick warehouse. Plans
are being made to increase the present
capital to $400,000 in the near future.
With a monthly pay roll of more than

landscape architects and a score of as-
Bistants, five expert decorators and a

tion to its staff of growers and helpers.
Officers of the Lang Floral & Nursery
Co. are: President, Otto Lang; vice-

SUBDXnNO SNAPDRAGON BUST.
Can you give us a sure remedy for
rust on snapdragon plants? Wo have
tried everything we knew of, with no
results. W. A. L. — Va.
It seems doubtful, to say the least,
whether this inquirer's hopes can be
fully realized. A "sure remedy," such
as he asks for, seems to imply a briefly
stated rule of action, with sure and
swift results, and such a remedy for
snapdragon rust has not yet been dis-
covered. Experience has proved, appar-
ently, that the use of fungicides, such
as Bordeaux mixture or ammoniacal
copper carbonate, is of no avail. Only
preventive measures, in the form of
cultural precautions, are effective. Even
after a house of the plants is badly in-
fected with the disease, still the only
resource is the prevention, if possible,
of the further spread of the germs.
To begin at the beginning, the disease
can be avoided, or eliminated in time, by
the propagation of plants from seed.
It appears to have been definitely proved
that antirrhinum rust is not carried
or propagated by seed. Perhaps the
only disadvantage in growing the plants
from seed is the fact that few strains
are fixed, and selection must therefore
be practiced in order to secure desirable
strains. On the other hand, the disease
is extremely liable to be transmitted by
cuttings.
Excessive moisture, created by fre-
quent syringing and the use of heavy
shade, tends to promote the disease. Not
only is the moisture favorable to the
germination of the rust spores, but the
syringing also carries the spores from
one plant to another. Hence the spread
of the disease may be checked by water-
ing only from below, so as to avoid
wetting the foliage, and also by limiting
the number of stems on a plant, so as to
prevent too great density and conse-
quent dampness of the foliage.
In brief, then, the necessary procedure
seems to be: Grow the plants from seed,
or be sure — if that is possible — that the
cuttings are free from the disease germs;

remove and destroy diseased plants; let
the habit and the distribution of the
plants be sufficiently open to permit a
good circulation of air; if practicable,
discontinue overhead watering. If the

treatment of this subject in the issues

OBOWINa PEIiABaONIXTMS.
Please give me some information on
growing pelargoniums. I have about
1,000 3-inch plants which could stand
a shift; I have been keeping them on
the dry side for the last few weeks.
Is it best to keep them growing or dry
them off, and what is the best way of
doing this! W. W.— Okla.
It will be better to keep your plants
on the dry side and rest them. They
should be laid on their sides outdoors;
this will allow them to become well ma-
tured. When the wood has become brown
and well hardened, prune them back
somewhat and, after they have started
to break, shake out and repot them,
using the same size of pots. You can
keep the plants in a frame, protecting
it as cool weather comes along, later
placing them in a cold house. If you
GBOWING GEBANIUMS.
We should be pleased to receive some
information regarding the growing of
geraniums. How long does it take from
the time the cutting is put in the sand
until it is a blooming plant, ready for
the market? N. D. B. — la.
Cuttings rooted after the arrival of
autumn root with a smaller minimum
of loss than those put in while the
weather is warmer. Put them in clean,
sharp sand, do not shade and after first
watering keep somewhat on the dry side
until they are well rooted. Cuttings can
be taken and put in sand as late as
March 1 and still make nice 3-inch pot
plants for Memorial day sales. The fall
and early winter cuttings are usually
sold in 4-inch pots and they may be had
of salable size within four or five
months. Smaller plants can be had in
much less time. It all depends on how
large a plant is wanted. The standard
sizes for bedding and for window boxes
are 3% and 4-inch. C. W.

In prowing lilies outdoors, the best
results can be obtained in lijjht, rich
soil, sheltered from severe ■vvin(is as well
as the midday sun. In preparing- the

in the hot summer months.
Propagation.
As a rule, lilies do best in a rich soil,
but the bulbs should not he in contact
with fresh manure, as this is injurious.
Well rotted manure is beneficial to
them.
Lilies art' propai;ated from seed, from
scales and froni ofl'scts. To proilucc
bulbs from seed is a slow process. In

is their fragrance, whi(di is quite slroni:

formosuin. It is not diflicult to grow
the Kaster lily unibr glass from strong,
healthy bulbs, 'fhere is ;i difference in
each bulb to a certain extent, as to age,
size, fri'shness iiiid degree ol' maturity.
This exjihains why it is so diflicult to
secure uniform Miioniing at .'i definite
time. The d.'ites of potting ^^•hi(dl give
satisfacf <iiy results one year may give
unsatisfactory results the following sea-
son. What the florist does, t lierefore, is
to start his bulbs early and then grow
them by varying the temperature to get
the crof) when needi'd. Kaster lily
bulbs should be kejit cool until w(dl
rooted; then they may be brought into
heift for flowering. Secure the bulbs
as early as jiossible ;nul ])lant immedi-
ately. Do not let them become dry and
shriveled, as mucdi of their vigor will
be lost. There are several commercial
grades, measured by the average circum-
ference in iiKdies. The 7 to 9 is usually
the most serviceable and economical for
the commerci.'il florist.
Planting Important.
Oet the soil ready in time, so that the
bulbs can be jdanted at once u]K(n be-
ing r(>ceived. Use the S(dl as light as
])ossible, should it be rather heavy, and
set the bulbs on a cushion of sand.
With heavy soil mix y>lenty of well de-
cayed manure. It cannot be mentioned
too often that the soil sliould be light
and rather fibrous. Do not forget the
drainage in your pot and ]>lant your
liulbs firtnly; that is, press the soil well
around the pot and leave the soil more
loose on top of the bulb, (lood jjlanting
is half of the growing. Many florists
st.'irf the bulbs in 1 iiudi jiots and trans-
fer them, when growth has begun, into
I)ids in wliiidi they arc- to bloom. Others
jilant the bulbs in i)ots in which they
are to bloom, fill them two-thirds with
soil, leave them in that stage until the
bulbs make four to five inches of
growth, and then fill the pots with soil.
Often one gives a t(jj)-dressing, half
manure and h.alf s(dl, which is not ailvis-
.able, ]iarticul;irly if it is fresh uuinure.
If one grows lilies in largo (]uantiti('s,
both of these methods of pl.'inting take
too much time and labor. Always do
your work tlie (juickest, shortest and
best w.'iy. I'iant the bulbs in p(ds in
wdiich tliey are to bloom, fill them with
soil, except .-illowance for water space,
.•md then give a thorough watering.
After this the bulbs commence to swell.
Then keep them on the dry side; this
will help the bulbs to make roots
sooner .and get better root action. By
so doing, the bulbs will make top and
bottom roots at the same time. As soon
as growth l)egins, give water as you see
fit. If possilile, have a house ready
where the pots can be set right from
the beginning on the benches. If this
cannot be done, place them under
benches in the same house where they
are intended to be grown, as it will save
time.
May Regulate Growth.
Bulbs ]daute<l the first j)art of Novem-
l)er, started with a temperature of 50
degrees, increased slowly by the middle
of December to 60 degrees, should have
made good roots and a little top growth
by that time. From then on the tem-
](erature may be increased to assure
blooming for E.aster. (Jive lilies a house

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

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

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

Ideal Thanksgiving weather found the
Albany florists fairly rushed with busi-

The Market.
Chrysanthemums are in their prime
now. Prices are high, and retailers
complain that such prices kill trade.
Customers blame the retailers for the
high prices, not knowing that they have
to pay twice as much at wholesale as
the flowers cost formerly at retail.
Most retailers formerly had customers
who came regularly once, twice or three
times a week to buy 50 cents or $1
worth of flowers. In the aggregate this
trade amounted to considerable. Now
it has disappeared. Florists can give
practically nothing for these sums.
Paper Whites are coming into the mar-
ket in large quantities.
Various Notes.
Fred P. Wolfinger reports that while
business is good, there is not the life
to it that there should be. He attrib-
utes this in part to the fact that high
prices of flowers have driven away a
considerable part of the transient cut
flower trade.

Thanksgiving trade. E. B. M.

The Market.
Stock of all kinds was plentiful for
Thanksgiving day and almost every-
thing sold well. Chrysanthemums of
fine quality were the best sellers. En-
guehard. Eager, Marigold, Wells' Late
Pink and Christmas Gold were the
chief varieties. Pompons in white, yel-
low and pink sold well, also white and
yellow Mensa. Paper Whites have
made their appearance, but as yet there
is little or no call for them. There
are a few good sweet peas coming in,
also calendulas and bouvardia. Violets
and orchids were useful for corsage
work.

Business last week was comparatively
quiet. There has been a fair amount of
design work, and some of the florists
have been having a number of decora-
tions. These are for dances, receptions,
teas, etc. There have been a great num-
ber of coming-out parties and these
have resulted in many orders for flowers

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

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

Some things are easily reasoned out,
without the benefit of experience. For
instance:
I receive great pleasure and benefit from my
subscription to The Review. — Wm. Herdman,
Tacoma, Wash., November 9, 1920.
Enclosed hnd $2; please renew; we wouldn't
want to get along without The Review. — Hiram
J. New, Manchester, la., November 22, 1920.
Given such letters as these, an aprio-
rist would reason that The Review,
standing so highly with those who buy it
to read, must be a splendid advertising
medium. He would regard as to be ex-
pected, such letters as these:
The plants are sold; the last check we needed
came in today. We are well satisfied with the
results and won't forget The Review when wo
have something more to sell. — Alphonse Peters,
Marquette, Mich., November 16, 1920.
Please run this ad until forbid, but If results
are as in the past shall need only two or three
Insertions. — T. H. Fuller, Battle Creek, Mich..
November 16, 1920,
Stop that 6-line Classified ad at once; It is
going to get me into trouble. My stock Is almost
sold out; it Is surprising the amount of business
brought to florists by those little liners. — John H.
Grlscel, Dayton, 0., November 22, 1920,
If you hear a man complain of the
cost of advertising you can be pretty
certain he spends a good bit of money
elsewhere than in The Review.

Henry C. Woltemate.
Henry C. Woltemate, whose sudden
death was reported in last week's Re-
view, was one of the oldest florists in
Philadelphia. With his two brothers,
Albert and William, he was brought up
in his father's floral establishment, on
Germantown avenue near Queen lane.
This was fifty years ago, when Wolte-
mate's greenhouses and Woltemate 's
store were better known to florists and
to flower lovers ^than any other place
in all Germantown.
Henry C. Woltemate branched out
for himself in 1879, when he was 27
years of age. He built the first of his
present range of greenhouses on Mount
Airy avenue, near,-4he Philadelphia &
Beading railway. The name of Wolte-
mate continued in the floral world of
Germantown for many years more, the
old place being conducted by Wolte-
mate Bros, and the new place by Henry
C. Woltemate.
Henry C. Woltemate conducted his
florists' business successfully for forty-
one years. He retired September 1,
1920. He grew specialties for the re-
tail stores, for the cemeteries and for
his retail customers. His stock was
carefully grown and ranked high in cut
flowers and in plants. Mr. Woltemate 's
affairs were so well managed that for
thirty years he has enjoyed an outing
at Keene Valley, in the Adirondack
mountains, each summer. Some years
ago he purchased the greenhouses that
were built by Thomas Butler, at Wynd-
moor, for his son Gilbert. His son,
Albert W., succeeded him in business
early last fall.
Henry C. Woltemate was a courteous
gentleman, a man of sterling integrity,
who will be sadly missed by his friends.
He was 68 years of age.
Mr. Woltemate is survived by a
widow, four sons and two daughters.
The funeral services were held Wednes-
day afternoon, November 24. The in-
terment was at Ivy Hill. Phil.
CINCINNATI, O.
The Market.
With the passing of Thanksgiving
and the usual holiday rush for stock,
the market is back to normal again.
Everybody reports banner sales for the
fall holiday, but there was one fault,
common to all holidays — a scarcity of
certain varieties of -stock. Roses and
yellow mums were hard to obtain.
White mums, white carnations and
Paper White narcissi did not move as
well as other stock.
This Thanksgiving was the first in
several years that such a number of
large mums were to be had. It seems
the growers only grew the larger ones
and no mediums at all. Fortunately
there was a good stock of pompons, and
this relieved the strain.
_ Some good California violets are ar-
riving and are filling in nicely, as the
home-grown ones are quite inferior,
owing to the unseasonable weather.
Lilies, both Easter and calla, are arriv-
ing in greater abaundance and are sell-
ing readily at $15 to $20 per hundred.
Mums ranged in price from $3 to $6
per dozen. Carnations were cleaning
up well at $6 per hundred. Snap-
dragons are at $8 to $10 per hundred.
Boxwood is selling, because of the sea-
son, at $25 per hundred pounds.

The Market.
Thanksgiving week was one of the
most unusual experiences in this market
thus far this season. Starting with No-
ber 22, Monday was a most active day;
Tuesday the bottom fell out, no one
knows why; Wednesday the city buyers
bought everything in sight if they could
dicker over the price, but passed up the
stock held at firm figures; Thursday's
half session was brisk; Friday shipping
orders poured in and sales went well
ahead of the same day a year ago; Sat-
urday there was a clean-up except for
a few mums and pompons. On the
whole, sales for most of the houses
footed up a slightly better total than
for the same week last year. A succes-
sion of dark days, some of them quite
cold, cut down the supply, so that the
quantity of stock handled was less than
last year, which indicates that, on the
whole, prices must have averaged better
than they did for Thanksgiving week in
1919. Also, the way the retailers bought
after Thanksgiving shows they must
have cleaned up.
The present week started well. The
supply shows the usual seasonable
shrinkage, and there is every indication
of continuous good business. There will
be more late mums and pompons than
in any previous year, but the general
crop is off, throwing a large part of the
demand back onto roses and carnations.
Rose crops are at about the lightest
of the season. Not only has the dark
weather had its effect, but those grow-
ers who cropped their houses are mak-
ing preparations for Christmas and have
little to cut at present. Of course, with
the supply as large as it always is in
this market, there are quantities of
roses, but there have been more here-
tofore this fall and there will be more
again as soon as the Christmas crop gets
under way. There is a pronounced im-
provement in the demand for red roses,
which never are in much request until
cold weather comes. The call for white
also has been improved by the reduc-
tion in the supply of white mums.
Carnations are selling considerably
lower than they did at this date Wt
year. The supply is larger, but not so
much larger as many expected. As soon
as white pompons are really out of the
way there will be nothing but the white
carnations to use in funeral work. The
price for Thanksgiving proved not to
be as good as the growers expected, but
it is rising now. Easter lilies, too, have
benefited by the reduction in the sup-
ply of chrysanthemums. They now are
the largest and showiest flowers to be
had for wedding decorations and funeral
work. Callas also benefit by the latter
demand.
Darker weather has reduced the sup-
ply of sweet peas and the price has
stiffened. The market for peas is bet-
ter than it would have been had the
usual supplies ofviolets been forthcom-
ing. There are practically no locally
grown singles and the market in the
east is good enough to hold there nearly

Henry C. Woltemate.
Henry C. Woltemate, wliosc smldeii
death was reported in last week 's Re-
view, was one of the oldest florists in
Philadelphia. With his two brothers,
Albert and William, he was broujjlit up
in his father's floral establishment, on
Germantown avenue near Queen lane.
This was fifty years ago, when Wolte-
mate's {Treenhonses and Wolteiiinte's
store were better known to florists and
to flower lovers than any other place
in all Germantown.
Henry C. Woltemate branched out
for liimself in 1879, when he was 27
years of age. He built tlie first of his
present range of greenhouses on Mount
Airy avenue, near the Pliiladeljihia (S:
Reading railway. The name of Wolte
mate continued in the floral world of
Germantown for many years more, the
old place being conducted by Wolte-
mate Bros, and the new place by Henry
C. Woltemate.
Henry C. Woltemate conducted his
florists' business successfnily for forty
one years. He retired Pejitemlicr 1,
]920. He grew sjiecialties for the re-
tail stores, for the cemeteries and for
his retail customers. His stoclc was
carefully grown and ranked high in cut
flowers and in plants. Mr. Woltemate 's
affairs were so well managed that for
thirty years he has enjoyed an outing
at Keene Valley, in the Adirondack
mountains, each summer. Some years
ago he purchased the greenhouses tliat
were built by Thomas I?utler, at Wynd-
moor, for his son Gilbert. His son,
Albert W., succeeded him in business
early last fall.
Henry C. Woltemate was a courteous
gentleman, a man of sterling integrity,
who will be sadly missed by his friends,
lie was fiS years of age.
Mr. Woltemate is survi\'ed by .a
widow, four sons and two daughters.
The funeral services were held Wednes-
day afternoon, November 21. The in-
terment was at Ivv Hill. I'hil.
CINCINNATI, O.
The Market.
With the ]>assing of Tlianksgi\ ing
and the usual holiday rush for stock,
the market is back to normal again.
Everybody reports banner sales for the
fall ludiday, but tliere was one fault,
common to all holidays — a scarcity of
certain \arieties of stock. Roses and
yellow iMums were hard to obtain.
Wliite muTus, white carnations and
I'ajier White narcissi did not move as
well as other stock.
This Thanksgiving was fh(> first in
several years that such a number of
large mums were to be had. It seems
the growers only grew the larger ones
and no mediums at all. Fortunately
there was a good stock of pomjions, and
this relieved the strain.
Some good California violets are ar-
riving and are filling in nicely, as the
home-grown ones are ipiite ' inferior,
owing to the unseasonalile weather,
lollies, both Kaster and calla, are arriv-
ing in greater abaundanee and are sell-
ing readily at $1.1 to $20 per hundred.
Mums ranged in price from $3 to $G
per do/.en. (Jarnatious weie cleaning

dragons are at $S to $lii jier Iniiidreil.

The Market.
Thaiiksuiv ing week was tuo' ol' the
most: unusual e.\perieiices in this m.irket
thus far this season. Starting with No-
lier l!l', .\Ioiii|;i\- uas a most active day:
'I'liesilay tie liottoni t'dl out, no one

a lew niuiiis ;iii.| pompons. On the
wh(jle, sales fi.r ino.>i of the houses'
I'oote.l up a slightly {...•tier total than
I'i'r the same week hist year. .V succes-
sion ol' .|,irk da\s. s(jine of tln-m unite
cold, cut d'.un thi' sujiply. so th.'it the
'luantity of stock handled w:is less than
last year, which indicates that, on the
wlede. pi ices mn-t lia\e a\erai;ed better
th;in they did fnr 'I'li:! 11 ks^i\ i ng week in
lIMi". Also, the wa\' the ret.-iilers l.nught
at'ler Thaiiksgi\ ing shows they must
have cleaned u]i.
The lU-esent week Started well. Tlie
sujiply shows the usual seasonabh-
shrinkage, ;ind there is every indication
of continuous good l)usiness." There will
be more late mums and j.ompons than
in any previous year, but the general
crop is ofl', tlirowing a large jiart of the
demand back onto roses an<l carnations.
Rose crops are at about the lightest
ci the seas.ni. Not only has the dark
weather had its efl'ect, but those grow-
ers who croiiped their houses are mak
ing pr.'iiarations for Christmas and have
little to cut at jiresent. Of course, with
the supply as large as it always is in
this in.arket. there are quantities of
roses, but there have been more here-
tofore this fall and there will be more
again as soon as the Christmas croji get-
under way. There is a pronounced im-
provement in the demand for red roses,
which never are in iiiiadi request until
cold weather comes. The call for white
also has been imprtived by the reduc
tion in the supjily of white mums.
Carnations are sidling i-onsiderablv
lower than they did ;it this date last
\-ear. The supjdy is largiT. but md. s,.
much larger as many ex|ie<d«>.l. .\s soon
as white jiotnpons are reallv (oit ot' the
way there will be nothing but the- white
carnations to use in funeral work. The
I'lice for Thanksgix ing proved not to
III' as gc'od ;is the growers expectcil, but
it is rising now. Kaster lilies, to.i, have
beiictiteil by the reduction in the sup-
ply of chrysanthemums. They now ar-
the largest ;inil showiest flowers to bi'
had for wedding decorations :ind funeral
work. Cali.'is also beuelit b\ the latter
demand.
Darker weather has r.'diiced th. sup
Jily of sweet peas and the price h;is
stilTeiied. The m.arket for peas is bet
ter than it would have been had the
usual supjdics of" violets been forthcom
ing. There are jiractically no locally
grown singles and the nnirket in the
east is good enough to hold there nearlv

few California violets find their way to
this market under these conditions.
There is little change in the situation
regarding other flowers. Valley and cat-

Uncle Sam Looks Us Up.
One day last week the market was
visited by a representative of the
United States government's investiga-
tion of the cost of living. Two of the
larger cut flower houses were inter-
rogated. The investigator wanted to
learn how the business is conducted and
how wholesale and retail prices compare
with costs of production. He was told
that wholesale prices now are, on the
whole, about the same as a year ago and
that cost of production has increased
sharply, with the result that the grow-

ers' margin of profit is less than at any
time since the war. Warning was given
against considering only the top price;
short roses are today selling below the
estimated average cost of production
and there are seasons of the year dur-
ing which the average price of the
whole cut is below cost of production.
Eetail prices, it was explained, do not
depend entirely on the cost of the flow-

ers, but are influenced by the place,

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

firm plans to plant several houses with

after that.
Cold weather has retarded progress
on the L. & B. house going up for the
Weiss-Meyer Co., Maywood. The steel
frame is all set, but the concrete work
is slower now that the temperature is
below freezing. Paul "Weiss expects to
plant it in January. The house is 70x

Premier Rose Gardens, which will be
duplicated at the latter place by next
summer.
The Thanksgiving window of the
Fleiscliman Floral Co., on Jackson
boulevard, attracted the atlention of
the trade as well as the public. Many
florists found time to take a look. The
display was of baskets of yellow and
bronze pompons, principally Mrs. Beu,
combined with Seckel pears, Delicious
apples and Belgian hothouse grapes.
Not only were the color combinations
in perfect harmony, but the arrange-
ment was excellent.
Peter Reinberg, whose services to the
public for many years have been in-
valuable, now is confronted with one of
his most difficult tasks. The cost of the
county government has risen as rapidly
as have business costs and, as president
of the county board, Mr. Reinberg faces
the necessity of cutting expenses by
millions of dollars or of raising that
much new revenue.

business this year was greater than in
any previous year. The larger stores
say it was a regular clean-up and that
all flowers sold well, with the mum a
leader, as usual. The St. Louis florists
are thankful for the splendid weather
conditions and the extraordinarily large
supply of stock at the various wholesale
markets, which was- all of the best
quality. At the wholesale market No-

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

old store. It will be fitted up with
handsome fixtures. Large show win-
dows face Eighth street.
The St. Louis district branch of the

ization will hold its first meeting De-
cember 14 at publicity headquarters,
1316 Pine street, the office of the secre-
tary.
The Saturday and Sunday hospital
fund collection days, November 27 and
28, created a considerable demand for
flowers to decorate the booths at the
various leading hotels and bank build-
ings. In one booth was a sign read-
ing: "You say it with a -Tag and we
will 'Say It with Flowers,' " and each
contributor was handed a flower.

The Florists' Review
Dbcbmbxb 2, 1920
PHILAI>EI.PHIA.
The Maxket.
Thanksgiving week, November 20 to/
27, was satisfactory in the cut flower!
market. The volume of business was
equal to that of last year; in some
cases it was better. , .
Chrysanthemums were the principal
flowers. The quantity received was
greater than that of the week before.
There appeared to be enough for al^
orders. There was no surplus. The
best brought 50 cents, others from that
down to ordinary stock at 15 cents.
There were said to be sales at higher,
figures. There were said to be sales at
lower figures. The prices given are the
standard market prices. There is com-
paratively little change in the varieties.
This is not a year for experimenting
with new introductions. The old stand-
bys, as a rule, have done well, though
here and there complaint is heard re-
garding quality. A good many Seide-
witz were late.
Pompons, always popular at Thanks-
giving, were more popular than ever.
They were used in great number, in all
the clear, rich colors. Quality and
foliage were as important as m the
large-flower class.
"While there were enough Japanese
chrysanthemums and pompons, there
were not enough of the flowers that
come next in point of popularity. More
carnations could have been used to ad-
vantage. This was the more apparent
because a good many carnations were
short in stem. Mrs. C. W. Ward led.
The wholesalers pushed the price of
Ward above that of Benora, Supreme or
Matchless, because they must or it will
not be grown. Every buyer wants
Ward and the wholesalers know that it
cannot be produced at the price of some
of the earlier and freer-flowering sorts.
Violets are so scarce that most of the
growers ship only once a week. The
mild, open fall has caused them to
bloom themselves out. Another good
crop is not looked for until after New
Year's. The result was that violets
reached $3 a hundred. The total re-
ceipts for them were trifling.
Beauties were offered at $75 to $100
for the specials. There is hardly any
other grade now. This was moderate
in view of last Thanksgiving, but there
is no special demand for Beauties at
Thanksgiving and the price was not
maintained, the receipts being fairly
heavy. Russell advanced to $30 and
Columbia to $25. The demand was for
the medium grade. Of these and the
shorts many more could have been
used.
Orchids touched $2 for the best cat-
tleyas. There were some nice Vanda
cserulea and both kinds of cypripe-
diums, the fancy yellow and the sober-
hued insigne.
There were a few gardenias, the flrst
white lilac and a really generous supply
of valley, much in request for weddings,
so popular at this season.
The Easter lily market is strong.
Callas, bouvardia and mignonette are
to be had in fair numbers. There are
some excellent sweet peas. Paper
White narcissi are not popular. Stevia
serrata has come.
The Goose Bone.
The goose bone man called up on the
telephone. He probably felt safer
talking that way. He explained that,
owing to the high price of turkeys, he

He said that he learned from the bone
that we would have a mild, open winter

him that I supposed that if the crocuses
bloomed outdoors before Easter, he
would insist that the bone prophecy was
right.
He said that he had not said that
flowers would not bloom early outdoors,

There have been a number of notable
visitors from out of town recently.
Eugene Dailledouze, Edwin J. Fan-
court and Frank H. Traendly took a
trip among the growers of New Jersey
and Long Island a short time ago.
Harry Fritz predicts a scarcity of
stock during the next fortnight.
Holly, with both foliage and berries,
is not easy to find. You can get it with
foliage or you can get it with berries.
To get both on one branch is the diffi-
culty.

November 24, and despite the fact
that business generally is not at its
best, a good Thanksgiving business was
done. There were no fancy prices and
the gross volume of trade was probably
below that of 1919. Nevertheless, there
was a pretty good clean-up of flowers.
Roses, owing to several sunless days,
were even less abundant than expected
and sold out easily at from $6 to $8 per
hundred upward, with reds somewhat
higher. Some fancy Hadley, Eussell
and Crusader practically equaled Ameri-
can Beauty prices, while the best grades
of other hybrid teas made $25 to $30
per hundred. Carnations, strange to
say, proved somewhat of a drug, and
while the bulk cleaned out at $8 to $10,
many were sold cheaper and some re-
mained unsold. Violets were rather
scarce at $2.50 to $3.

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

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

mer a nice business was done, and Mr.

Various Notes.
"William H. Elliott arrived home from
a nine months' California trip Thanks-
giving day and looks remarkably well.
He spent thirty days in the high
Sierras, thirty days in the vicinity of
the giant sequoias, and became an ex-
pert mountaineer, geologist and alpine
botanist. He made his headquarters at
Berkeley, his daughter being one of the
staff of the University of California.
He is a great admirer of the Golden
State and its wonderful scenery and re-
sources, but says he felt impelled to
tell Californians, when they became too
chesty, that the mountains, big trees
and other great features were works
of the Almighty and that, while they
had built the most wonderful university
in the world at Berkeley, they failed to
give it proper financial support. It
would take much space to do justice to
Mr. Elliott's description of what he
saw in California.
E. E. Wadsworth & Co., of North-
boro, are bringing in a fine lot of a
seedling carnation somewhat similar in
color to Morning Glow, but much more
double. They propose naming it Eve-
lyn. Another seedling has some Pros-
perity blood in it and strongly suggests
that one-time favorite. Matchless,
Benora, Pink Delight and Nancy are
other kinds grown. The last named is
not liked because the flowers have a
sleepy look, even when undeveloped.
A fine assortment of single and pom-
pon mums, all raised from seed and the
best sorts retained, made a decided hit
for Thanksgiving.
Since November 19 we have hardly
«een the sun and have had considerable
snow and rain, so that much of our
shortage of precipitation has been made
up. Nurserymen were specially glad to
see abundant rains, which insure ever-
greens coming through the winter well.
Robert Hutcheon,of Stoughton, Mass.,
is retiring from the greenhouse busi-
ness, in which he has been engaged for
many years, and will now devote him-
self entirely to gladiolus culture. He
has sixteen acres of excellent land and
a splendid storage cellar. His son will
continue the greenhouse business.
In last week's Review an inaccuracy
crept into the report of the club meet-
ing held November 16, in regard to

nominations of officers. Principal offi-
cers were nominated as follows: Presi-
dent, William H. Judd; vice-president,
Harold A. Eyan; secretary, William N.
Craig; treasurer, James Methven.
Thomas Eoland had a fine lot of Erica
melanthera for Thanksgiving, in addi-
tion to splendid cyclamens, begonias,
ferns and other plants.
Sidney Hoffman, at his Massachusetts
avenue store, featured choice foreign
and domestic fruits largely, in addi-
tion to plants and cut flowers, and his
baskets of fruits and flowers were so
attractive that there was little wonder
that they met with a large sale.
A. A. Pembroke, of North Beverly,
now operates two large retail stores in
Salem, and business in both is satis-
factory this season. He grows a large
proportion of the plants used, such as
cyclamens, begonias, ferns, solanums,
chrysanthemums, etc. In carnations, he
now grows principally Benora, White
Benora, Pink Delight and Matchless,
with smaller lots of Rosette and one or
two other sorts. One large house is
planted with Columbia and Ophelia
roses and a house of sweet peas has
been in crop since early in October.
There will be a further exhibit of
orchids from A. C. Burrage, of Beverly
Farms, at Horticultural hall, December
18. This will be the last of twelve
notable displays made during 1920, un-
questionably the most extensive and
varied orchid displays over seen in
America. They have been viewed by
thousands of visitors on each occasion
and have done much to encourage the
love and culture of these beautiful
plants. W. N. C.

The Market.
Thanksgiving week found the market
pretty well cleaned up, and, while some
of the retailers have complained that
business has not been so good as here-
tofore, the trade in general agrees that
it was far better than a year ago. Of
course, had the weather conditions been
better, business naturally would have
had more snap, but, as it was, we can-
not complain. There seemed to be a
decided scarcity of large mums, while
carnations and roses were also inade-
quate to take care of the demand.
There seemed to be plenty of pompons.

Garza moving more slowly, than any
other. The wholesale houses here all
closed Thanksgiving day with the ex-
ception of one, which was open only
for about two hours and reported poor
business for that short time.
A few mignonettes and some myosotis
made their appearance, while white and
yellow narcissi arrived in good supply.
Local roses were good, although some
retailers complained that even these
were too tight.

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

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

But now let us note the actual wed-
ding day, and no matter whetlicr the
bride be a princess or a girl who toils
for her living in a factory, flowers must
play a part, great or small, in the nup-
tials. A wedding without a bride 's
bouquet would be like the production
of "Hamlet" with Hamlet left out.
Wo have all seen weddings where
flowers were used in every conceivable
way, the aisles of the church strewn

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

"For the women tliore is the corsago

corsage entirely of orcliids, but 1 have
suggested a combination of flowers, an
orcliid witli others. Since the prohilii-
tiou of all flowers from the other side
there has been a scarcity of orchid
plants and the prices are high. With
women using a combination corsag<>
bouquet, which was really less formal
and more pleasing, the demand for or-

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

green wants the flowers, and not the
bride, to be seen. White is not cheer-
ful enough for the background for a
bride. A wedding is the most festive
and joyous occasion of a person's life
and the flowers should be cheerful.
There should be a soft combination of
the right colors to make a background
that will be in itself forgotten, but be-
fore which the bride will be outlined
a charming figure.
"In the same way as for the bride,
the bridesmaid's flowers should suit the
figures and gowns of those who carry
them. It is the faces and the gowns
which are to be seen and the bouquet
is only a bit of the ensemble. It is
the girl and the gown, and not the bou-
quet. There should not be an attempt
to match the costumes. No flowers
ever matched materials, but there
should be something that harmonizes
so that it does not stand out by itself.
It is often difficult and requires much
effort to find exactly the right flowers,
but the pleasure that is given when
just the right thing is obtained makes
the effort more than worth while.

arm is out of place is in the reception

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

charming than to turn the room or the

takes place into a beautiful orchard of
apple blossoms. Or perhaps the garden
of the bride's home may be repro-
duced for the same reason; or an out-
door wedding with the reproduction of
a Greek temple. If it is done with
skill and taste, it is delightful. It
takes a student and lover of nature to
do it. But under ordinary conditions
to overdo with flowers is as bad as to

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

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

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

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

Various Notes.
John De Groot, the well-known spe-
cialist in gladioli and other bulbs, who
has a farm at Catonsville devoted to
the production of bulbs, is also inter-
ested in the United Bulb Growers, Inc.,
of Holland, and is traveling representa-
tive of the concern in this country.
Mr. De Groot is most enthusiastic about
this new corporation, the object of
which is to sell Holland-grown bulbs
direct from the grower to the consumer.
In organization it is similar to the asso-
ciation of raisin growers of the Pacific
coast. K. Klyn is the managing di-
rector of the corporation in this coun-
try, with offices at 040 TJroadway, Now
York. Both of these men were raised
in the bulb industry in Holland and
understand tlie business thoroughly.
About forty bulb growing firms in
Holland arc now members. Mr. De
Groot started on a trip through the
middle west November 28 in the con-
cern's interest and at the same time to

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

They "Said It with Flowers" good
and hard. The Thanksgiving day busi-

Prices held up well. Stock was good,
and cleaned up better than usual.
Wholesalers moved between 50,000 and
55,000 mums and cleaned up on all but
whites, which are always hard to get
rid of. Even these will not go to waste.

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

Samuel Murray: The total sales sur-
passed last year. There was a big de-
mand for mums and we sold the most
expensive first. Roses and violets sold
well.
J, Austin: The volume of business
was about $20 ahead of last year in
two stores, with more local business
and not so many single sales for largo
amounts.
Apollo Flower Shop: Our sales were
little ahead of former years, but the
calls for mums are still numerous.
Miss Lou E. Boggess: Our business
was good and equal to other years.
William L. Rock Flower Co.: We
sold fully as much as last year, having
a particularly good country trade and
many nice orders. Mums were better
on account of the cool summer and are
keeping better than usual.
Chandler Landscape & Floral Co.:
We had a good business and sold nearly
all of our mums.

a big Italian funeral Wednesday to help
out.
Mrs. Hedges: We sold all but two
mums, and are delighted with the day's
business.
C. T. Eeinhardt: Well satisfied.
Sold all but a few mums.
W. J. Barnes: Best Thanksgiving
we ever had. Our crop of mums was
larger and better than usual. Cash
sales were a noticeable feature of the
day. We are still selling mums.
Mrs. T. A. Mosclcy: We were not so
overworked as in former years, but did
well. Mums came in earlier this year
and were not a noveltj\ Other flowers
sold well in comparison.
Muehlebach Flower Shop: We had
fifteen people working Wednesday and
Thursday. A number of hotel and club
decorations, besides shop sales, kept
them all busy.
Arthur Newell: Our business was
from fifteen to twenty per cent better
than in 1919 and it was all straight
Thanksgiving day business. Fancy
mums at $18 went first and we did not
have enough of them. Yellow Eaton,
six and eight inches across the top, sold

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

from Memphis, Tcnn., where he had an
exhibit of plants and cut flowers grown
by the Pinohurst Floral Co. These at-

by a Memphis florist at the close of the
state meeting.

customer last week ordered a dozen of
these at $5 each and about $20 worth of
other flowers without asking the price,
and paid cash for them all.

Reports on Thanksgiving business
were generally satisfactory. Prices
were good and showed a slight increase
over last year, but the volume of busi-
ness was slightly smaller.
Mums received the big call, and the
abundance of these held down the sale
of roses and carnations. The mums
were not so good as have been offered,
but the price was much higher.
Roses in general moved slowly at $8
to $30 per hundred, but Columbia, Hoo-

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

matter is still before you.

Me. John A. Macrae also had a large
exhibit of carnations. T. J. Johnston
& Co. and Johnston Bros, had exhibits
of roses, carnations and other cut
flowers.
One of the most noticeable displays
was the $15,000 collection of rare or-
chids from Albert C. Burrage, Beverly
Farms, Mass. Numbering 195 plants,
all in full bloom and representing fifty
varieties, it attracted continued atten-
tion.

Long Beach, Cal. — B. V. Hcnsley, for-
merly in business at Knightstown, Ind.,
has located at 1485 Linden avenue, in
this city.
South Pasadena, Cal. — C. Austin, of
this city, who was planning to remove
to Deerfield, Fla., has changed his plans
and will remain here for the present.
Capitola, Cal. — J. A. Brown, who re-
cently returned from Europe, has an-
nounced that he has secured the services
of Carl De Ryk, an expert bulb grower
of the Haarlem bulb district, Holland,
and that Mr. De Ryk has arrived here
to take up his new duties. Mr. De Ryk
will have charge of the growing of Euro-
pean bulbs.
Pasadena, Cal. — A. W. Jannoch, pro-
prietor of the nurseries bearing his
name, which were established in 1906,
says he believes the shipping of plants
from California is only in its infancy.
He believes that California growers can
supply many plants not procurable else-
where and that the development of a
large business depends only upon devis-
ing methods which will insure safe
transportation.
LOS ANGELES, CAL.
The Market.
Chrysanthemums are about cleaned up
in this market, owing to the big Thanks-
giving day business. All the mums were
purchased early, causing prices to rise,
the larger varieties bringing as high as
$4 per dozen wholesale. There are plenty
of good pompons and small mums of
good quality. Roses are scarce. Every
grower of roses in this market seems to
be cropping for Christmas. If nothing
unforeseen happens, there will be a good
supply of roses for Christmas. Poinset-
tias made their first appearance last
week and were of fair quality. Sweet
peas and violets are more plentiful.
Indoor carnations are scarce, but the
field varieties are plentiful and of good
quality. All the wholesalers report n
big shipping business for Thanksgiving.
"White Man's Market."
The regular meeting of the Los
Angeles Florists' Club was called to
order on Friday evening, November 26,
at 6:30 o'clock, at Christopher's
cafe, but was immediately ordered ad-
journed and a special meeting was called
to order for the purpose of discussing
the organization of a "white man's
flower market" in Los Angeles.
A motion was made by Frank Warner
that an organization be formed and
supported by individual subscriptions.
An amenduient, judviding that each
member sliouM (-(iiitribute .$10 monthly
towards the siijipurt of the organiza-
tion, was c.'irried.
F. H. Howard moved that a commit-
tee of three be appointed, consisting of
one retailer, one wliolesaler and one
grower, to investigate the cost of such
an organization and report back to the
body at the next meeting, Decciiiher 3.
This committee consists of Fred Sjierry,
Arthur Howard and H. N. Gage.
In order to find out what sup])ort the
organization would get from the trade,
Tom Wright made a motion that a com-
mittee be appointed to report on how
many growers and others would agree
to purchase space in the market. F. R.
Hills, Mr. Polder and Gebhard Prechtl
form the committee.
A committee composed of F. H.
Howard, Tom Wright and Walter Arma-
cost was appointed to investigate the
organization of the Southern California
Horticultural Association with the idea
of taking it over.
Walter Armacost had the support of
the body in a motion to take steps for
incorporation.
Various Notes.
Charles Morton, manager of the Dono-
frio Floral Co., Phoenix, Ariz., made a
hurried trip to Los Angeles by automo-
bile to purchase stock for the Christ-
mas holidays.
Robert Newcomb is here on one of his
regular visits.
A ])etition asking that Wall street,
between Fourth and Fifth street, be a
permanent flower market, where flowers
may be sold from trucks or wagons be-
tween 5 and 8 a. m., was passed at a
recent meeting of the city council.
Walter Amling is bringing in fine
quality Columbia roses regularly. He is
consigning most of his stock to the E. C.
Amling Co.
Wright's cyclamen plants, on display
in one of the big wholesale houses of
this city, are some of the finest ever
seen on the market.
Walter Garbett, manager of the E. C.
Amling Co., reports an unusual Thanks-
giving business. He said that large ship-
ments of mums were made to the Chi-
cago market and from all reports they
arrived in fine shape. By the time this
is printed the company will be making
preparations for moving into its perma-
nent home, which is a building 50x100
feet, situated in the heart of the flower
market. A 10-year lease is held on the
entire building.
SAN FEANCISCO, CAL.
The Market.
The drenching downpour that marked
a great part of last week did consider-
able temporary mischief to the chrys-
anthemums. Most of the local shippers
had large Thanksgiving orders and, just
about the time they were filling the
orders for distant points, the mums were
wet and not in satisfactory condition for
shipping. To add to the worries of the
shippers, the growers, seeing the scar
city of satisfactory shipping mums,
raised the price. "And they'll blame
us," said one large shipper, alluding
to the upward trend of the mum market.
However, there were some fine days
in between and at the end of the week
most of the shippers were smiling and
satisfied, because they managed to get
their shipments off in satisfactory con
dition.
The local market last week was brisk.
The outdoor mums have suffered less
from the rain, in the long run, than
have those grown under canvas. The
two days of sunshine have had a good
drying effect on mums and there are
many grown under cover in the local
market that appear to be in a satisfac-
tory condition. Many shippers are send-
ing away large consignments of the
outdoor mums, which are plentiful, of
good variety and can be found in a vast
range of autumn tints, as well as in pinks
and other more conventional hues. The
pink canvas-grown mums are much more
plentiful than are those in white and
yellow.
Violets were abundant and of excel
lent quality. Roses were becoming more
plentiful. Carnations were scarcely
plentiful enough to supply the local mar
ket. California red berries, for Thanks
giving, were fairly plentiful and of good
quality, for the most part.

The blossoms are of new colors, coral-pink, carmine-rose, garnet-red, snow-white, orange and rich apricot- yellow, with
various hues at the ends of the petals. Some are tipped with chocolate, terra cotta or rich crimson. This giant strain of
ours made its appearance in the Los Angeles market and was higbly prized by growers. Highly recommended by William

tisement with which they inaugurated

press, Sunday, November 21. Say It
with Flowers" was the heading over a
page-length picture of a pretty girl hold-
ing flowers. Below was the statement
that the Retail Florists' Association
means to inaugurate Sunday closing,
beginning with January 9, 1921. It is
the association's intention to advertise
nationally next year.
Bulbs continue to be much in demand,
both for house and garden uses. C.
Kooyman is much gratified by the con-
tinued demand.
"Roses have been scarce, but they
are coming in nicelv from our nurseries
now," stated the E. W. McLcHan Co.
A big Thanksgiving demand for yellow,
pink and bronze mums is reported by
this firm. The roses coming in from the
nurseries are Russell, Columbia, Hadley,
Ophelia and Premier.
J. A. Axell 's growers are all cutting
more roses. They are particularly strong
on Russell, which is of fine quality. The
Peninsula Nursery Co., San Mateo, Cal.,
is sending Mr. Axell some of its Laddie
carnations, which are of such remarkable
size and of such rich pink color that the
demand far exceeds the supply. Good
carnations being scarce, unusually good
ones are almost at a premium.
As an experiment, General A. J. Gooch
shipped a considerable consignment of
violets to New York city. The morning
of November 24 he had returns from his
consignee, who stated in his letter that
the flowers had arrived in excellent
shape. The general has some dried straw-
flowers which he dried in a new way, as
an experiment. They have retained their
color to an unusual degree. Next sea-
son he means to dry strawflowors on a
large scale. At present he is sold out.
Joseph's, who always adil to the ekf-
fect of flower displays by bird cages
and bowls of goldfish, have had in their
window a tall stand for a canary cage
all embowered in smilax and yellow
mums, giving a strikingly decorative ef-
fect.

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

The Market.
A general inereaso has been noted in
work in all lines in the last week, with
funeral work and decorations sharing
the greatest increase. There has been
a markedly lighter delivery of Califor-
nia stock, roses proving an exception
sale on white mums. The Washington-
Dartmouth football game November 27
attracted 20,000 fans and the green and
white colors of the latter could only be
produced by white mums with green let-
tering.
Ophelia roses art' in heavier supply
than at any time for the last two
months, according to most growers, but
the stock is hardly sufficient to fill all
orders as yet. Columbia and Ward are
increasing somewhat, hut the cuts of
Proniior, Butterfly and Russell have

There has been a decided improve-
ment to report in the quality of carna-
tions arriving, especially in Enchantress.
A novelty in local shops last week was
the first showing of Paper White nar-
cissi. Just at present the price on these
is too high for a big general sale, al-
though there was enough stock for such
a demand.
Lily of the valley, bouvardias and
gardenias are all short of the demand,
and there is no improvement in the
orchid cuts. Cattleyas have been used
prominently in a number of recent wed-
dings and at elaborate luncheons.
Potted plants have been becoming
more popular lately, undoubtedly the re-
sult of the passing of outdoor offerings
in most sections of the northwest.
Potted cyclamens, especially the deeper
shades, are big sellers, but brighter
colors are also in demand.
Ferns continue to be one of the best
selling offerings and practically every
retail shop has featured them. The
prices for this season are a little below
those of a year ago, but still there is a

Various Notes.
One of the Seattle florists produced a
Thanksgiving day window which at-
tracted many pedestrians. A table pre-
pared for the "turkey day" dinner was
arranged about a large floral center-
piece and the window was modeled to
look like a dining room. Tlie white
table linen, a white polar bear rug and
vases of white mums helped to carry
out tlic winter effect.

S. ROSAIA & COMPANY
Shipping: Department, 501 OTarrell St., SAN FRANCISCO, CAL.
Chicago, has returned from his regular
trip to Vancouver and Victoria, B. C,
and reports several changes in trade
circles there. At Vancouver, J. F. Cox
has purchased the Wilkinson & Brown
shop, near the Vancouver hotel, while
Brand 's Seed Co. has extended its hold-
ings to include a flower shop in a room
adjoining the seed store. The seed and
bulb business will be continued.
The store of Kenney 's Home of Flow-
ers is being altered. Plans are being
made to remove one partition, so as to
increase the amount of space available
for the display of flowers on the main
floor. This shop handled the first of
the season 's Paper White narcissi.
A special window for the Washington-
Dartmouth game, November 27, was de-
signed by the Hollywood Gardens. A
miniature model of the new University
of Washington stadium was given cen-
tral position in the window, with a foot-
ball in the immediate foreground. Pen-
nants of the two colleges were used in
the background and a number of cor-
sages suitable for the event were shown.
This firm is receiving a fine sujiply of
mums and pompons from the green-
houses.
Potted smilax, growing on tall run-
ners, was last week's feature at the
show rooms of the Orpheum Floral Co.
and it sold well.
McCoy's is cutting some fine En-
chantress.
Harry Johnson has been added to the
sales force of Rosaia Bros. Last week
this house filled a large order for a
local department store, consisting of 100
balls of highly colored dried stock and
fifteen huge wreaths for the chandeliers.
Gus Peterson, of the Woodlawn
Flower Shop, entertained all of the em-
ployees of this shop at his home last
week.
Brown Bros. & Co., of Vancouver,
B. C, are doing a fine general business
and note an increase in the present total
as compared with business for a year
ago.
N. B. Healy, of the Seattle Fern &
Moss Co., reports a brisk shipping trade
in ferns lately, and a growing interest
in Christmas greens.
The Woodlawn Flower Shop handled a
novel silver wedding decoration last
week. The handle and ribs of an um-
brella were silvered and this was inter-
woven with pink roses attached to sil-
ver-colored ribbons. This piece was
placed in the center of a 75-foot table.
Pink roses were also used on the altar,
to which led a graduated row of aisle
posts, made of miniature rose trees. The

Taken generally, Houston is better
supplied from local growers than are
some of the other southern Texas cities.
The Mexican tuberose is the favorite
cheap flower here and in adjacent
towns, and it is seen by the wagonload.
Its heavy fragrance is almost overpower-
ing. Roses, locally grown, are fit to take
their places beside any seen in the south
or west, though the quantity is not
nearly suflScient for the local wants and

violets arrive in fine condition from Los
Angeles and San Francisco.
In several cities visited, green
branches of mesquite, camphor, wild
peach and laurel are used to help out
with plumosus and huckleberry, which
are costly, owing to the high express
rates. Until the recent frost, the edible
asi)aragus was also used. Good plants
are decidedly scarce, either from lack
of demand or supply, cyclamens being,
apparently, the best offering.
Various Notes.
Frank D. Mayo has bought out Wal-
ter Westgate's place, on Washington
street.
At the Washington Gardens, the Mex-
ican tuberose is grown and shipped in
immense quantities. The first year 40,-
000 were planted; last year 100,000
were planted. F. Eetzer says they
"breed like rabbits," one fair-sized
bulb bringing many offsets. A planting
of 50,000 gladioli was also made last
year and this is to be largely increased.
The bulbs mature well here and are re-
markably heavy and solid. Only ten
acres are used now, but a nearby tract
of 160 acres has been obtained and
much of this will be planted to bulbous
stock.
Hewitt's Flower Shop is a neatly
kept, clean and attractive store in a
fine location and Mr. Hewitt gives it
his close personal attention.
The Brazos Greenhouses, at the south-
ern end of the town, comprise a nice
riiiige devoted to mums, sweet peas and
a general lino of potted ])l;ints, rubbers
and CTotons being largely grown. A
good line of ornamental nursery stock
is also carried.
Carroll the Florist, 922 Te.xas avenue,
has purchased the business of the Hous-
ton Floral Co. His brother is asso-
ciated with him in tlie enterprise. Tl\e
two businesses will be run sej)arately.
The retail store, opposite the Rice hotel,
is a Imisv place.
Kerr the Florist lias a large and at-
tractive store and Manager Eichling is
a busy man. They have recently opened
a new shop under the nanio of the Rose
Shop, at Main and Rosalie avenues, in
a good residential part of the city. At
the greenhouses of Robert C. Kerr fine
potted plants are grown, there being
about 40,000 poinsettias, many cycla-
mens, primulas and a good general line.
For cutting, roses, mums and poinset-
tias are the principal items.
The Kuhlmann Floral Co. has a good
location in the Rice hotel and has an
attractive store.

Plenty of valley pips are on their way
from Germany.
Scattered consignments of Dutch
bulbs continue to arrive, a few cases
reaching New York on almost every
steamer from Eotterdam.
Prices for vegetable seeds, while not
yet stabilized, are steadying and prob-
ably will begin to advance as soon as
the trade knows for a certainty what
the 1921 supply will be.

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

MISTAKE IN SALE BY SAMPLE.
One-sided mistakes in business trans-
actions do not relieve the obligation of
a contract. So the Pennsylvania Su-
preme court is in line with other judi-
cial authorities when it decides, in the
case of Holmes vs. Cameron, 110 Atlan-
tic Eeporter, 81, that where the sale of
goods by sample has been contracted
for, the seller cannot avoid performance
of the agreement on the ground that
he submitted a sample of a higher grade
of goods than he intended to submit.
In this case, the defendants had sold
a bill of goods to the plaintiff by sam-
ple, but a week later wrote that it would
be impossible to deliver, because a mis-
take had been made and the defendants
had no goods of the kind called for by
the sample. In the meantime the mar-
ket value of the goods had risen to a
point considerably higher than the con-
tract price.
The plaintiff recovered damages for
nondelivery of the goods and the Su-
preme court aflSrmed the decision, say-
ing, in part:
"In the sale of goods by sample there
is an implied warranty that the bulk
shnll correspond with the sample in

therefore it is not a case wliere perform-
ance was impossible. 'A contract to
perform an impossible thing may be
void, but it never is impossible to pro-
cure and deliver an article of commerce

quarter of the world.' . . . 'It
must be impossibility, not diflSculty,

WORTH NOTING NOW.
As in other industries, conditions iu
the florists' business have changed. For
the last two years demand has so ex-
ceeded supply that anything could be
sold, usually with little effort. The seller
has been in command, arbitrary as to
prices and intolerant of criticism of
stock or methods. Now the bud is on
the other bush; supply lias increased
while demand temporarily has de-
creased, with the result that the buyer
again controls the situation. Selling
will not be so easy as in recent seasons;
advertising, while it still will be the
chief and cheapest means of moving
stock, will not bring the unprecedented
response produced in the last two sea-
son.s. To make it pay it will be neces-
sary to make a thoughtful selection of
methods and mediums. That the subject
has begun to receive attention is aji-
parent:

Easton, Pa. — Though the Easton fire
department estimated the damage
caused by the fire on the night of Octo-
ber 28 at Adolph Fischer's greenhouses
at $5,500, Mr. Fischer does not think
the loss will be so much. Many plants,
however, were destroyed and the struc-
ture was much damaged. The fire
started from an overheated boiler.

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

treating of the importaurc of the luirs-
•Ty trade as a vital imlustry, he re-
ferred to the popular impression that
California nurserymen are ])rc>fiteers.
This, he saiii, was far from the truth,
and lie submitteil prices of three lead-
ing; eastern firms, together with the cur-
vent prices in California, for several
standard plants. "A comparison of these
ligures, " stateil Mr. Bergtholdt, "show
that in spite ut' the iinprecedented de-
mand and a corresponding shortage of
trees, the California planter Is paying
over fifty j)er cent less than the prevail-
ing prices in the east. ' '

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

The Market.
Last week saw tlie heaviest suowfall
that tliis vicinity lias experienced in a
good many years. It did not hurt busi-
ness in the h;ast. Thanksgiving busi-
ness is fine. Tlicre are plenty of fall
flowers to meet the demand of the public.
Our mums are most wonderful this year,
and are in great demand. We have- an
extra fine lot of pompons. Roses and
carnations are fine for so early in the
season. Sweet peas are starting to come
in now and they are in great demand for
corsages.
Potted plants are in great demand.
They consist of cyclamens and pompons.
Various Notes.
The Fifth Avenue Floral Co. has had
an exceedingly large corsage business
this fall. Funeral work and wedding
decorations are still in great demand.
The Rolf Zetlitz Co. is cutting a large
number of roses.
Underwood Bros, have been busy with
funeral work. They are buying some of
Leo Miller's fine cyclamens.
T. J. Ludwig has been cutting some
fine mums.
Employees of the Munk Floral Co.
motored to Richmond, Ind., last week.
Mr. Walker, formerly of the Stephens
Floral Co., is now with the Wilson Seed
Store. W. F. F.
Mansfield, O. — The Mansfield Floral
Co. sustained a $3,000 loss as the result
of a fire November 17, caused by a leak
in the gas meter. The carnation house
was completely destroyed and consider-
able glass throughout the establishment
was broken. Paul Kopanka, owner of
the company, says that the property
destroyed will be rebuilt.
WiUiamsville, N. Y. — Seventeen
inches of heavy snow November 17
caused the roof of a greenhouse, 30x100
feet, owned by C. B. Shisler, to give
way. The building, which was com-
pletely wrecked, and its contents de-
stroyed, was valued at $3,500. Mr. Shis-
ler and two assistants, who were in the
house at the time putting up bracing,
t'scaped injury by dodging under
benches.

Decembeb 2, 1920
WASHINGTON, D. C.
The Market.
Tlic vdlumc (if business for Thiuiks-
giviiig was satisfactory. Stock was
more iiloiitiful tliaii during the previous
week, wlien an acute scarcity was felt
in several lines, due to weather condi-
tions. Out-of-town business was brisk
and the result was that almost every
kind of stock cleaned up well. Despite
the usual lull in business which follows
a holiday, the end of the week found
the wholesalers almost entirely sold out.
Table and hardy ferns were in large
demand, and the supply was good
througliout the week. Little stock of
any description went on the streets, due
to the sharp advances in price.
Various Notes.
We do not know who engineered this
deal, but a clerk from the Oehmler
Floral Co. has located with the Dupont
Flower Shop, one from the Dupont
Flower Shop is with Z. D. Blackistone,
while one of Blackistone 's clerks is
holding the fort left vacant in Oehm-
ler's flower store. This happened all in
a week.
The pictures of Z. D. Blackistone and
George C. Shaffer were in the Sunday
paper in connection with the Kiwanis
Club. Mr. Shaffer is second vice-presi-
dent of the club.
The Washington Floral Co. is cutting
some fine orchids and roses.
Marche & Co. have been busy with
funeral work. They also had several
large decorating jobs last week.
G. V. S.
Council Grove, Kan. — The Cleek Flo-
ral Co. ran a special Thanksgiving dis-
play advertisement in the local news-
paper with good results. The advertise-
ment read: "Flowers best express the
spirit of Thanksgiving and, with a lower
price this year, their voice will be
clear."
Jackson, Mo. — Mrs. H. L. Obermiller
annually offers a prize for the best essay
by a grade school pupil on "Say It with

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

Greenhouse Heating
Subscribers are invited to write the
editor of this department with regard to
any details of greenhouse heating that
are not understood. When information
is desired regarding the capacity of boil-
ers, or the amount of radiation required
for a greenhouse, the needed temperatures
should be stated in the inquiry, as well
as the amount of glass in the side walls,
and the dimensions and general arrange-
ment of the greenhouses. It is often help-
ful, also, to have a sketch showing the
location of the houses.
PIPINQ THBEE SECTIONS.
I am enclosing a drawing of a house
I wrote you about some time ago. Ex-
perts on double glass construction have
figured the radiation required at 537
square feet. I have a 15-horsepower Tee
boiler, rated at 2,000 square feet, which
I shall use for heating. I have planned
to put coils of eight IMi-inch pipes along
both concrete walls at the north end,
forming a heart at the northeast and
northwest corners and running the full
length of the east and west walls, bring-
ing the 2-inch returns to the middle of
the south end and returning through a
4-inch pipe in the center sunken path
to the boiler. Are the sizes for return
pipes right?
I thought of using 1%-inch pipe under
the benches in section 1. To heat for
rooted cuttings, how many will be re-
quired! All three sections open into one
big room under the gutters. Section 1
will contain all the benches and will
require a little higher temperature
than the other two sections. Planting
in sections 2 and 3 will be in ground
beds. I do not want to run the pipes
so as to obstruct the light.
How shall I place the rest of the radia-
tion required? I am planning to run a
4-inch flow from the boiler to a point
just inside section 1 and then branch
through a tee, using 2-inch pipes down
to the coils running along the north wall
to the east and west walls. I cannot
handily run the flow to the south end and
returns along the outside wall, because
the gutters are only five feet high, ex-
cept on the north side of section 1.
The flow would be so low that it would
interfere with walking through the
house. W. N. L.— 0.
From the sketch one learns that there
are three houses, 11x45 feet, running
east and west, with five feet of glass in
the south wall of the south house. The
two end walls are of concrete and the
north wall of the north house is built
against the workroom and boiler house,
with the boiler opposite the middle of
the house. The only entrance in the
house is from the boiler room.
The method of heating to be used is
not stated, but from the amount of radia-
tion mentioned, I infer it is hot water,
provided 60 degrees will answer for sec-
tion 1 and 55 degrees for sections 2 and
3.
While a 4-inch main flow pipe will
be all right, 3-inch would be better for
the branch flow pipes. Run these to the
northeast and northwest corners respect-
ively of the north house and then take
off 2%-inch pipes with which to supply
four 1'4-iiich return pipes to run to
the middle of the house from the east
and west ends. Run the coils under the
north propagating bench.

"The customer's interest first"— is the basis of the KROESCHELL standard. This
principle makes the KROESCHELL Policy the most liberal of all in the Green-

commanding position. It is the KROESCHELL principle to supply only the type
of boiler best suited for the conditions. For this reason we always furnish the

The KROESCHELL has proven its worth in many of the large establishments in
this country. It has frequently been selected by the most careful buyers in
competition with all other types of boilers. Its efiSeiency and capacity are com-
pletely beyond any other boiler.
KROESCHELL BOILERS have no bulky, soot accumu-
lating surfaces— you avoid the disagreeable work and
trouble indispensable to cleaning boilers with compli-
cated and tortuous back and forth passages.
The superiority of our boilers has resulted in the removal and abolishment of
hundreds of cast iron sectional boilers— in every instance KROESCHELL BOILERS
give more heat with the same piping with less fuel.

six 1%-iiich returns to run on the south
walls to the middle of the house.
The pipes in all of the coils should
be connected so that there will be a walk
about four feet wide across the middle
of the three sections. The pipe to .ioin
the coils with the main return should
start at the south wall as a 2% -inch
pipe and increase gradually, so that it
will be a 4-inch before the last coils are
connected.
Run all of the pipes downhill and keep
the coils as high as possible, especially
if they are not 'above the top of the
boiler. Join the highest part of the
main flow pipe with the expansion tank.
Piped in this way, there will be no occa-
sion for using air valves.
PITTSBITRGH, PA.
The Market.
The cut flower business held its own
for Thanksgiving, but the old expres-
sion, "best ever," is not so much in
evidence as it has been for several
years anLong the retailers. However,
they all did well and had a good trade,
which went along without any great
rush. The weather was unusually bad,
with continued rain November 23 and
24. The wonder is that they did so
well, and had the weather been right,
no doubt business would have been
better.
The wholesale houses cleaned up
nicely. Local chrysanthemums were
done and the last of the pompons were
sold before Thanksgiving. There were
many chrysanthemums shipped in, most
of which arrived rather soft and small
and sold only because there is always a
demand for chrysanthemums for
Thanksgiving.
Chrysanthemums are done for this
season. The flowers now offered for
sale are Beauties, roses, carnations,
lilies. Paper Whites, Romans, stevia,
calendulas, yellow daisies, asparagus
strings and bunches, Mexican ivy, leu-
cothoe, galax and ferns. Boxwood and
lycopodium arc moving rapidly.
Various Notes.
Mrs. E. A. Williams, Inc., has installed
an automatic refrigerator in its show
and stock boxes, which is giving good
satisfaction. Since ice continues to get
more expensive each year, mechanical
refrigeration begins to attract more at-
tention. Besides it keeps the boxes at
a more even temperature and avoids
the dirt resulting from liandling quan-
tities of ice.
The Pittsburgli Cut Flower Co. is
forcing pussy willow and is showing
some nice stock from three to four feet
long. The bad weather seems to have
had some effect on the employees of the

the grip.

but not sell. To counteract this, the
city of Los Angeles has arrangements
well under way for a market place for

sale of loose flowers. These the Japs

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

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

The Drumm Seed & Floral Co. is an

What J. HORACE McFARLAND
writes about
MELR OSINE
Gentlemen : —
Having had a try-out of the substance now called
"Melrosine" before it was put on the market, I was impressed
by the fact that it really did kill rose-bugs, and I don't know
anything else that will do the same service without also killing
the roses. Then later, after it had been introduced, I saw it
being effectively used not only to put the rose-bug out of busi-
ness on roses, but to do the same when they had attacked rho-
dodendron flowers in a prominent garden near Philadelphia. I
keep it on hand, and would not hesitate a fraction of a second
about putting it in use as soon as the bugs appeared, because I
believe it is the best available remedy for this nasty pest.
Yours truly,

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

An Elastic Cement That Expands
and Contracts With the Weather
Make your greenhouse weather-tight with Asbestfalt,
the elastic cement that never gets hard, cracks or
peels in cold weather or runs in hot weather.
$1.25 per gallon. Why pay more?
Tou can't get anything better no matter how much
more you pay. The ingredients are of the purest;
weighs but 10 pounds to the gallon.
With the scarcity of coal and its high prices, the
careful application of Asbestfalt will more than pay
for itself by keeping your greenhouse air-tight.
To insure best results, apply Asbeitfalt
with our Liauid Putty Machine, srioa
S2.00. With every barrel purchMa of
Asbestfalt, one machine free.

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

in regard to our petunias:
"Last year I purchase^ Petunia seed from you.
I think every seed gerlninated and the blooms
were the Snest ever seen in this part of Canada.
Only about 8 per cent of the plants could be
classed as common. I want more of the same
quality each year."
Mr. Rudolf Nagel, I,ancaater, Pa., under date
of Dec. 14th, 1919, writes us:
"I had last year Just a few of your petunias,
but I am sure I could have sold thousands of
them. They surely came up to your claim and
way ahead of my expectation."

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

''Strong, Light Steel, AU But the WheeP'
JUST the thing for small gardens. Needed in most big gardens. The price makes it popular. Lasts
ALMOST FOREVER. Quickly pays for itself in labor saved.
The side teeth are held by springs, relieving the shock; the swinging in and out leaves the ground
level, the soil well pulverized, making a thorough mulch that preserves the soil moisture, thus greatly in-
creasing the crop production.
The broad, light, durable, wooden wheel stays on the surface. It is so balanced that the wheel does
not dig in the earth or push hard.
Invaluable for working among flowers and small, closely planted garden truck. It has no equal for
easy operation, thoroughness and utility.
Weight about four pounds without the handle. An ordinary hoe handle completes the implement.
Trade Price $24.30 per dozen
Place orders immediately for stock for Spring. Get it in your catalogue.
Will be liberally advertised to consumers. Stock up and be ready for the demand.

TTTHEX we find out what some folks
' * do, we wonder when under
heaven they ever do any sleeping-.
Our good friend Didato is one of that
kind.
If he evei' does stop working on or in
his house, we have never happened to
catch him.
In fact, if he ever dot's sleep, have a
notion he only shuts one eye at a time,
like a New York fireman.
If there is one kind of a customer more
than another, we like, it is the fellow
who starts small and grows up.
We take no i;nd of interest in giving
such men all possible help.
Didato now has throe of our iiouse.s.

he lini.^ht'd erecting tlie past summer.
Of course, nt)ne of us can tell what
anybody's future is going to be, but
one thing wo can say. and that is, if
Mr. Didato keeps on going at his present
high goar paee, it won't l)e long before
you will lu'ar him spoken of as "'one of
the big Jersey growers."

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

The system mentioned
was installed by us last
winter for the Rock-

is a typical modern
system.
This method of hand-
ling the water of con-

heating plants having
50,000 ft. or more of

passed.
We have installed many
such systems, and they
are all giving entire

Every Florist Will Profit By Selling
These Delicious Hothouse Grapes
People who buy flowers are the people
w^ho will buy beautiful hothouse grapes.
Grapes are less perishable than flowers.
A beautiful, perfect bunch, in a basket
of flowers makes it a thing of beauty, in-
deed!
Florists in Europe do a large, profitable
business in hothouse grapes. The market
is ready for them here. Ideal for gifts to
convalescents, for weddings, anniversaries,
banquets, holiday feasts, etc.
^ Prices always reasonable.
Let us ship you a box containing six bunches {seven pounds), at our risk. Or write for Jull details.

CHRISTMAS FLOWERS
Our prices for this Christmas average the same as a year ago,
despite the big advance in the cost of growing, such as coal, labor, etc.
Nearly all of our growth of flowers are sold on regular orders
that go the season through. We therefore feel that it is only fair to
our customers that for the holidays we will assume this extra cost of
growing ourselves.

You always get fresh flowers and a more even run of stock. Our

From North Carolina:
"It is with great pleasure and satisfaction to report to you that the shipment of cyclamen reached me in first-
class condition. I give you full credit for the way you packed the shipment. That's the way to pack plants,
and not just slap them in like so many shippers are doing nowadays. Everyone seems to be mighty anxious to

From Arizona:
"Duplicate our order of the 24th; did not think shipment could be made this far."

Flower Stores that Reflect the Yuletide Spirit.
NTICIPATING the rush of
business which the holi-
days at the year's end
bring, florists are full of
preparatory plans for
handling the orders at that
time. They will shortly
be busy with decorations
installed before the holi-
days, some in business
houses and some in stores of size simi-
lar to their own. Do they realize, at
this busy time, the value of decorating
their own stores and of making such
other preparations as will carry to
passers ' and patrons '
minds the spirit of the
day that causes these
preparations? To no
other class of stores, in-
deed, is presented the
opportunity to do so
much in reflecting the
Christmas spirit by the
use of its own merchan-
dise, without appreciable
extra expense. The op-
portunity seems, indeed,
to be one of which none
in the trade should fail
to take advantage.
Exterior.
Though every florist
makes some decoration
for this season, this
varies in degree in dif-
ferent stores. Many, a
great many, fill their
windows with baskets of
red foliage and plants
tied with red bows and,
having seen a plenty of
the bright color them-
selves, go no farther.
In fact, flower store decoration for the
Yuletide is apt to consist of but little,
if any, more than display of plants and
baskets which are to be sold at the
holiday.
But there is much more tliat can be
done. In the window, for instance,
wreaths and holly and other greens can
be used 'to give a real Yuletide appear-
ance. A Christmas tree, decorated with
florists' materials instead of tinsel and
gilt trinkets, can be made the center of
a display, consisting, for the rest, of
the plants and baskets which the store
offers for gifts. No better tree trim-
mings are to be found, indeed, than the
dyed grasses and foliages which most
florists use. Other touches can be added
to make the window one really sugges-
tive of the coming holiday.
Some florists employ evergreen
branches and green festooning to orna-
ment the outside of their store at this
time. The effect is not lost on patrons
or passers-by, you may be sure, and now
that less of this is done by other sorts
of shops, the distinction it gives to the
florist's place of business in a row of
stores is productive of sales.
In the Store.
It is in the store that least efforts
are usually made, although here they
would be greatly to be desired. Every
Christmas of late years, many people
who enter flower stores depart without
buying. Why? The price is too high?
Not so much that as that the florist has
not endeavored to sell his wares so
strongly that the visitor could not re-
sist. The sentiment that offsets price
was not played up powerfully enough
to overcome that ever-present obstacle
in the purchaser's mind.
Easy Extra Susiness.
"I don't need to bother about those
people," says a florist. "I've got all
I can do without their orders." But
he would not refuse their orders if they
were proffered. And without extra
sales force he could get many of them
by reflecting so compellingly the Yule-
tide spirit in his store that the visitor
would feel that flowers must be a part
of his or her own celebration of the
holiday. This can be done in any flower
store by means of effort extremely slight
in comparison with the returns.
What is necessary is that which is
called "atmosphere." The florist
creates it for many a social event,
many a banquet and in many a home.
He can do it easily in his store. If he
makes his plans now, he will not spend
valuable time on this when every minute
is precious. It is not too early now to
put up such decorations and they may
be left until the rush is over.
The necessary decorations will take
space, and, says the
retailer, every square
foot is precious. To
a certain extent, this
is true. But that senti-
ment can be carried too
far. It will not do to
pack a store full of
blooming plants, in the
hope of letting each
customer pick out his
own. There should be
a complete assortment,
from which the customer
can indicate his choice
of arrangement.
Beliance.
The florist will see that
an exact duplicate is
sent. If his word is not
taken by the customer
that such will be done —
well, that florist should
do some missionary work
in the way of educational
advertising during the
ensuing year. It should
be the florist's object,
however, to see that
the plantvS in the store are the same as
those he intends to send out and that
there are not some extra "fixings" on
them that the buyer will not see on the
plant delivered to him.
If tlie florist arranges his plant as-
sortment in the store so that customers
may view them without handling them
over and over, and does not sell the store
specimens, necessitating their replace-
ment with other plants, he will have
ample space for patrons to look about
easily, without crowding and without
damaging stock, and he will have am-
ple space for decorations that will give
his store a real Christmas atmosphere.
To acliieve this last, there are a num-
ber of things he may do. One of the
simplest of course is to place a Christ-

mas tree in the center of tlie store or in
some other conspicuous open space and
decorate with florists' materials. About
this lie should place a few plants and
baskets of cut flowers to show off these
wares of his. Of course, it goes witli-
out saying that the placing of wreaths,
holly branches an<l mistletoe about the
store goes a long way towards giving it
a Yuletidc spirit. The artistic eye of
the decorator will enable splendid effect
to be made of these materials from the
florists' own stoek.
Often the retailer has a nook in his
store which he uses for a quiet corner
for customers.- It is somewhat aside
from the store 's bustle on a crowded
heliday, though quite visible to all
visitors. Siich a nook may be employed
in a striking fashion, by putting in it
Christmas plants or some other sort of
decoration and throwing on the exhibit
a special colored light, or a changing
series of colored lights. Elaborate
vases and cut flowers can be made into
artistic pictures of still life.
Tlie Christmas Touch.
On some baskets florists will put a
huge red bow, on otliers none; some
arrangements contain much in the way
of Christmas greens; others will have
none. It should be the practice, on all
orders that are holiday purchases, to
include some touch that is essentially
"Christmasy," such as a sprig of liolly
in a plant arrangement or a little mis-
tletoe in a corsage bouquet. Tliese
small additions to orders really give
the holiday business of the florist the
distinctiveness that makes the recii)i-
cnts remember and connect the florist 's
products with the holiday. Large as is
the trade done at the close of Decem-
ber, it is little compared witli tlint which
may some day be developed for this
occasion.
Special wrapping paper will not be
generally employed this season, but
colored string can be used. If nothing
fjtncier is employed, red string is al-
ways to be iiad. In former years some
florists have tied a bit of holly to every
]iarcel which left their stores. The
liiglier cost of these added bits of fin-
ish to orders is causing them to be
;il)!indoned frequently, but there are
still those in the trade who maintain
that the few cents these things add to
tlic cost of an order is well spent. The
irionev is as well spent as that jiaid for
advertising space in the local news-
jiajjcrs.
After all, it is every bit of it adver-
tising, and it's a profitable and pleas-
;int way to advertise, for it makes
l)oth the florist and patrons feel a little
more keenly the gladsome spirit of the
'^'ulotide season.
Drawing Power Needed.
Such advertising power as has the
("liristmas spirit which a flower store
may possess will, it seems likely, bp
needed this Christmas. No, that is not
pessimistic presaging. Everybody an-
ticipates an excellent Christmas; all will
do good business. But that clean sweep,
that sale of everything in sight, which
so gladdens the heart, will not occur
without effort on the part of the trade
to promote ('hristmas sales.
Though the department stores in the
big cities are doing splendid business,
they are not crowded in a fashion the
jiublic is accustomed to this close tf>
('hristmas. Instead of marking sales
tickets uj) to take advantage of the holi-
iJMv rush, these stores are marking them
down. There is the disposition, quite
opposite to that of a year ago, to hang
on to one 's money instead of flinging it
away. The same situation seems to be
prevalent in most retail lines.
In this situation there is no cause for
jicssimism, no reason for gloomy fore-
l)oding. There is, instead, need for ener-
getic efforts to encourage purchases of
flowers for Chistmas. The pul)lic is go-
ing to buy Christmas gifts, about as
many as usual and in a liberal spirit,
when the time comes. And they'll buy
flowers, if we urge them to. The time
calls for activity and energy, more of
it than ever, and forceful advertising —
one means of which is to make your
store reflect the Yuletide spirit.
FEASTS' FEATXJEE F. T. D.
One of the most ardent workers in be-
half of the F. T. D. in Baltimore is the
firm of Samuel Feast & Sons. An in-
stance of their efforts in this direction
was their recent window disjjlay giving
publicity to telegraph delivery. In it
the F. T. D. emblem was used as the
central figure. Mercury speeding on his
winged sandals, on top a globe on which
the continents were florally outlined.
Along the front of the window ran tele-
graph wires on miniature poles. At
either side were huge reproductions of
blanks of the two telegraph companies.
In the foreground were posters in re-
gard to wire service. Palms, blooming
plants and baskets of cut flowers
brought forcibly to mind that the sub-
ject was not merely telegraph delivery,
but the telegraph delivery of flowers.
The window was deserving of all the
notice and comment it received from
those who stopped at 331 North Charles
street to view it.

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

<^ PLAN FOR HOLIDAY s»e
MEETING CHRISTMAS PROBLEMS,
Plant Shortage Demands Preparation.
A year ago we inadi; jirojiaration lor
Christinas more carefully than dthcr
years on account of missing many va-
rieties of Christmas jilants. We have
to do so much more this year. Labor
conditions are still unsettled, and busi
ness conditions are naturally more or
less affected. Many large growers in
certain sections of the country reduced
their growing capacity on account of
being unable to secure sufficient coal.
Many found certain articles which they
grew last year unjjrofitahle in conipari-
son with other articles and are growing
stock not used so much for holidays but
for other seasons of the year.
The stock available last (Jhristnias
in flowering and berried plants was of
a different nature from the stock in
previous years. The general assort-
ment consisted of araucarias, cyclamens,
camellias, begonias, crotons, Pandanu-;
Veitchii, the difTerent varieties of
heathers, jioinsettias, cherries, oranges
and well colored dracapnas, with a noni
inal amount of azaleas, Pyrus Mains and
Viburnum Sinus.

jirice on tiies(> plants has gone up con
tinuously. The cheaitest plants \vf
could ])urcliMse last year were Cleveland
cherries at $l.."iii apiece wholesale and
[loinsettias in 4 inch jiots with one
small, perfect llower at Sl.oO. The
decorating of a plant of this kiiul
where, as in the city of New York, the
tiovver buying public is exceedingl.v dis-
criminating, can be nothing cheap.
I'eojile do not want a i)icce of crepi'
]iaper, which looks mussed ufi within .i
day or two. We have to use natural
green sheet moss to coxcr the pot, have
to decorate the base of th.- jiliuit \sitli
asjiaragus, pussy willow, etc., and ha\i'
to use good ribbon on the plant. That
almost doubles the wholesale |iric-c ol'
the plant. So when we get an order
tor a .$1! or $1 plant for a customer froni
out of town or a customer calls to l)u\'
a plant at a lower price, it is hardly
possible to give something good.
Service Builds Sales.
Kvery plant we sell should .add to out
prestige. Florists may have prices
alike, but do widelv varying business.
What gives one florist the larger busi
ness and increases his sales is the good
ser\ ice wh)( h he gives customers.
Tlierefcue, when a customer comes to
us during the holidays and wants an
inex|iensive plant :ind we wish to serve
him ut'll, \\i' should not trv to sell hitn

with berries or holly, these will last and
give pleasure to the customer through
their lasting quality. W.- .are al)le to

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

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

harm as the actual freezing of the
plants. Paper is expensive tlieso days,
but it is best to stock up on it heavily.
It will not take in.'iny frozen plants
to equal the cost of a ton of old news-
papers.
Few Novelties.
There will not be much in the way
of novelties for the coming holiday
season among foliage and flowering
[ilants. Pcrhajis a year hence, with a
(irobable modification of Quarantine Ii7,
Kurope may be able to send us some
(ine new azaleas for Christmas, hydran-
geas for Easter, and other desirable
novelties, but meantime we must worry
along with what we have and it is
really surprising what .'i lot of fine ma-
terial we can produce at home. Wc
shall miss the azaleas, skimmias,
aucubas, hollies and other imported
stock, but cyclamens, begonias, poiu-
settias and other plants <j;rown at home
are abundant, of sterling quality and
likely to give every satisfaction.
Last year Christmas trade broke all
records; business tln'U was liooming,
few were unemployed and wages weri'
high, rresent industrial conditions are
less bright, securities of all kinds are
low and a semi-jiessimist ic feeling is
met far too frequently. Can we, under
siiili conditions, surjiass or even equal
last year's business for the holidays^
At this writing, this scarcely seems
possible, and the fancy prices obtained
for some jilants and flowers a year ago
will hardly be equaled now. Still,
overhead charges have not yet been
reduced in a noticeable degree and
florists are Justified in asking as much
as they did a year ago, although some,
no doubt, who do not consider all the
circumstances, will tell you that there
is no reason why flowers do not drop in
the same ratio as wheat, flour, oats,
sugar, potatoes and onions. They ig-
nore the fact that florists .still pay at
least as much for labor, fuel, twine,
glass and other such items as a year
ago.
Cyclamen Leads Plants,
Among flowering plants, cyclamens
will once more be the leaders. These
are to be found this season in greater
numbers and ot' finer quality than ever
before. Wiieu ilie yard across speci-
mens in lO-incli pots or small tubs .arc
compared with such plants as wo had
at Christmas a decade ago, the advance
in their culture and popularity is evi-
dent and the price.* paid today at
wholesale would have made growers
ten years ago gasp. The big specimens
olTered are usually 15 to It) months old,
while not ;i few good plants are no
more than !S or 9 months old. Entirely
ajiart from their flowers, cvclamens are
exce]itionally attractive. ' The varie-
gated foliage >uggests peperomia leaves
facing: u|i\varil and there is great

you do not sell all your plants during
the holidays, remember that they can
be kept, if necessary, for three months
and that they can even be kept in
presentable condition for an Easter as
early as we shall have in 1921.
Begonias.
Begonias come next to cyclamens in
favor. More of them may be sold tlian
of cyclamens, but, while they may carry
.a greater profusion of flowers, they
have less variety of colorings and art-
poorer keepers in the store or home
than cyclamens. Of the several kinds
in commerce, Melior now seems to be
in the lead, with Cincinnati next and
Mrs. Peterson and Lorraine in smaller
numbers, and with a fair quantity of
Chatelaine, Mrs. Patten and others of
the fibrous-rooted, ever-blooming sec
tion. A more limited number of the
magnificent English winter-blooming
section are offered. These need more
heat than our American varieties.
Their flowers are as large as those of
the summer-blooming tuberous bego-
nias and have a fine range of colors.
They are propagated readily from
leaves and have better keeping quali
lies than Cincinnati or Melior. Once
their culture is better understood and
they become more abundant, they will
outclass even cyclamens as Christmil^
plants.
Tlie Yuletide Flower.
Poiuscttias cannot well be dispenseil
with at Christmas. Their brilliant
scarlet bracts are alwaj-s associated
with the yuletide. Their culture, while
not especially difficult, is more so than
that of many other plants. Vagaries
of temperature, careless watering and
injudicious feeding will ruin a fine
batch in short order. There is no
beauty in poinsettias minus most nt'
their foliage, and bungling attempts tu
hide naked stems with various green
j)lants mend matters but little. Careful
watering is especially needed for :\
few weeks before Christmas. Avoid
cold flrafts, but gradually lower the
teniiK'rnture for plants with well devel-
u|ic(l br.iil>. Sometimes, when plants
have been chilled somewhat, a soaking
of warm water will help to revive them.
While the plants are in the store, never
allow water to stand in the saucers, or
the foliage will speedily turn golden.
When there is a cold wave around the
holidays, poinsettias are among the
most difficult plants, not only to sell,
but to deliver in presentable condition.
Retailers, under such conditions, often
lose heavily on them. Be sure to wrap
them warmly when the weather is cold.
Branched specimens are now po|)ular
with the critical buyers. Old stock
plants are the best for this purpose.
There is only a limited call for the
white variety. The rose-colored form
sells a little as a novelty, and plenis-
sima, the double scarlet form of pul-
cherrima, is pleasing, but the over-
whelming majority are of the single
scarlet variety. When cutting poin-
settias, be sure to sear the ends of the
stems, either by dipping the ends in
boiling water or applying them to hot
coals. Then wrap the foliage of each
in soft paper and plunge in deep vases
of water. Heliotropes, allamandas and
euphorbias all keep much better if the
bottoms of their stems are seared as
soon as cut.
Primulas.
The primrose family is really useful
at Christmas, as it can be rather
cheaply produced and profitably sold
at prices suitable for buyers of moder-
ate means. P. obconica, especially in
the red and deep pink shades, is use-
ful and makes a first-rate house plant.
Some retailers taboo it on account of
the poisoning caused by handling the
foliage. P. malacoides also is poison-
ous, but in a less degree. It is graceful
and, while not at its best so early as
Christmas, sells well at that time. The
pink Townsendii is particularly good.
At one time the baby primrose, P. For-
besii, was popular. Now it is seldom
seen, as malacoides has outclassed it.
Neither are many of the sweet and
pretty P. kewensis seen, but P. chinen-
sis and the taller-growing and smaller-
flowered form, stellata, are still in
favor. It is to be regretted, however,
that their foliage is so brittle. All the
primulas succeed under cool culture in
the greenhouse, store or home and all
are ideal for window boxes.

more so unless a revision of Quaran-
tine 37 occurs. A few, however, are
being offered, but at fancy figures.
Erica melanthera is a welcome plant
and a good stock of it is offered. This
is the heath par excellence for com-
mercial use. Its propagation and cul-
ture are simple. It flowers over a
period of several months and there are
few flowering plants that last so long,
always provided it is not allowed to
become dry at the root. Some of the
long-tubed ericas also are offered, as
well as a few bougainvilleas. Camel
lias drop their flowers rather easily
and are bruised unless carefully packed.
There is always a call for them, how-
ever, at this season and their popularity
is once more on the ascendant. I liave
noticed one or two plants of Acacia
Baileyana in flower. This variety, how-
ever, grows too tall for commercial
purposes, although the cut sprays are
acceptable before the graceful A. pu
bcscens comes in.
Berried Plants.
There seems to be a shortage of Ota-
heite oranges this sc;ison ami their
prices rule high. These plants can bo
depended upon to hold their fruit for a
long time. Another beautiful berried
subject for Christmas, which also ap-
pears to be in short supply, is Ardisia
crenulata. This plant cannot be pro
duced cheaply, because several years
are needed to get fair-sized, salable
plants. On the other hand, tlie quan-
tity of solanums is greater than ever
before and they are wonderfully well
berried. Cleveland holds first place
and there are improvements on this fine
sort. The orange-yellow variety also
meets with a good sale. These at-
tractive plants will not hold their fruit
and foliage as well as ardisias, but are
of easy culture. Christmas peppers are
also in the list of berried plants, but in
the east the finely berried hollies and
aiicuhas, now debarred, will be missed.
Want New Varieties.
Miscellaneous flowering plants seem
more numerous than in former years.
The continual demand for something
new induces growers to try out plants,
occasionally new but mostly old, that
are not ordinarily considered for lioli
day use. Some of these are worthy of
the attention of commercial growers,
who may not have handled them before.
Cinerarias from seed sown late in June
are now nicely in bloom and should sell
well. Standard heliotropes are by no
means new. They are not, perhaps, of
a real Christmas color, but their de-
licious odor always makes them sell.
The inauve-flowered Erlangea tomen-
tosa, coining into flower immediately
aftt'i' clirysanthemuins, has been men-
tioned before in The Review; the flower
heads resemble eupatoriums and the
foliage is pleasingly scented.
Nicely flowered scarlet geraniums are
acceptable at this season. The double
varieties stand packing and shipping
the best. In the way of bulbous plants,
Paper White narcissi are abundant in
pans and bowls. Last fall was so
warm that early-planted bulbs bloomed
far ahead of their usual season. Pots
and pans of Roman hyacinths are
available. So are a good number of
Purity freesias, which have needed a
night temperature of 52 to 54 degrees
for some time.
Many Possibilities.
Linum trigynum, with golden yellow
flowers like allamandas, is worthy of
more notice. It is an old plant, charm-
ing in pots. Gardenias in 5, 6 and
7-inch pots, carrying open flowers and
a good number of buds, are excellent
for warm rooms, where they will open
well, and their perfume is always ap-
]>reciated. Browallia speciosa major,
dcej) blue, in 4, 5 and 6-inch pots is a
lovely ]ilant, of a color always popular
among ladies. The dwarf form of
Stevia serrata makes a lovely pot
jilant. Its culture is simple and, if
grown cool, it never needs any staking.
Single white marguerites, if propa-
gated early and if pinching was dis-

continued in September, are in good

Buddleia asiatica, the white winter-
flowering Chinese lilac, opened its first
racemes December 1 and, in a tempera-
ture of 50 degrees at night, will be in
fine condition for Christmas. The
graceful, drooping racemes of flowers
and their delightful odor make this

brilliant poinsettia, is an old plant,
beautiful for cut sprays and fine in

come standard commercial favorites.

FLOWERS ARE FROZEN.
Court Awards Damages.
A case of interest to greenhouse men
was decided by the Kentucky Appellate
court at Frankfort, Ky., in A. J.

ural Gas Co., November 30. Mr. Hum-
phreys, who has a store and greenhouse

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

FASHION»tE FLOWER SHOPS
AVE florists been conscious
Mof the rapid advance
made by their trade of
late years? I've often
wondered if they have,"
remarked a customer to a
~ ^ A florist the other day. Ex-
(TvJ't^ plaining that his particu-
— 1 1 far business had made him
observant of all kinds of
retail establishments for many years,
he added, "It's not the publicity
they've had from their slogan that I
mean. That is altogether recent. Tliere
has been in the last decade, however, a
conspicuous improvement in florists '
stores and in their methods of business.
Today, I should say, no retail shops are
finer than some flower shops I've been
in. Not all of them, of course; there
are leaders and laggards in every pro-
fession as in every procession. The
leaders among florists' stores, liowever,
surpass the leaders in
other retail establish-
ments. Some of your
fashionable flower
shops are the last
word in store archi-
tecture."
Leaders.
Have florists noted
it? Or does the fact
only come to our minds
when an outsider calls
our attention to it 7
When he has done so,
a little reflection con-
vinces us that he is
right. One would not
here name those retail
flower stores which
stand out conspicuous-
ly in the various cities
of the country; such a
list would be invidious.
Florists who travel to
conventions, if not
elsewhere, however, re-
call those stores whose
appearance has given
them cause for ad-
miration. The number
is becoming larger, for
others of the trade are
seeing and pondering
the success of those
shops, and quite fre-
quently a trade visitor
goes home afterwards
to spruce up his place a bit, even
though his town is not large enough to
warrant the outlay for such a store as
he has seen in the city.
Progress.
The result has been, as the florist's
patron remarked, a notable advance in
the trade. This, one believes, is only
one phase of our progress. It is one,
however, that carries much in the way
of prestige to the public, which is not
generally able to note other lines of
the trade's advance.
There is in reality a decided benefit
to be obtained by a store that stands
out as the home of a business and is
not merely the room in which the pro-
prietor displays his stock for sale. If
it does nothing more, it adds to the
respect of the patron for the wares he
buys in such an establishment, and in
these days, when prices of flowers are

high and must continue high, all of us,
will agree that this is something well
worth while. But it does do more. It
is, for another thing, a highly valuable
species of advertising. Many of the
trade may recall, in this connection, the
doughboy who was asked in Paris what
he thought of most often in connection
with his home city, New York, in his
reminiscences of home. Was it the
Woolworth tower, perhaps, or the Statue
of Liberty, the Hudson river or Brook-
lyn bridge? No, it was a green spot on
a Fifth avenue corner that had im-
pressed itself on his mind, and when
he returned he was going to take the
bus straight to that famous florist's
store. When a shop becomes a land-
mark, it has, indeed, tremendous pub-
licity value, and in many cities and
towns are florists' places which have
reached this class. Their appearance,
either because of their architecture or
exterior ornament or
decoration of some
sort, has impressed it-
self indelibly upon the
eyes of passers.
Pashionable.
When a flower store
has the air of up-to-
dateness it derives pat-
ronage also because it
comes into that cate-
gory of shops termed
by that word so inde-
finable yet meaningful,
"fashionable." Flo-
rists of wide experi-
ence are respectful of
that word and what
it denotes. They have
seen a difference of a
few blocks in location
work a marked effect
upon clientele. They
have seen change in
appearance — the alter-
ation of a store front,
jnore pretentious ex-
terior decorations, or
rearrangement of in-
terior, not to speak of
remodeling or the
building of a new
store — make notable
changes in a shop's
trade. Just as people

reasonably within the contemplation of

Tlie defendant company claimed in
this case that the failure to sujjply the
florist was because the gas was sujv
plied to the citizens. In this regard,
the court states that when the comjiany
secured a franchise it was contemplateil
it would take reasonable and practica-

panions, so do they prefer to trade at a
store that sends some prestige with its
wares. That is what is known as a
"name" making sales. The quality of
stock at a store may be no better than
that at the one two blocks down the
street, the work may be no better per-
formed, yet the "name" of one draws
customers the other cannot get. One of
the most potent factors in making a
"name" is a flower shop's appearance.
Certainly no shop that is not of excel-
lent appearance can be considered in the
fashionable class.
How powerful is this motive of fash-
ionablcness in winning business is not
always appreciated. A prominent figure
in the field of advertising merchandis-
ing reiterates that if he can put a prod-
uct into a few of the best homes in a
community he can be certain of sellinj^
it to a large number of other citizens.
The popular desire to be in style, that
not so high in value. While a conserv-
of mimicry in the human race, sways
the majority of buyers of every retailed
commodity. It is a potent influence in
this trade, and it is aroused by nothing
so much as by a stylish store.
Constituents.
If the florist appreciates this quality,
he no doubt will recognize the constitu-
ents of stylishness in a flower shop. It
is not the intention to go into these in
detail, for Ihey have been dwelt upon
from time to time in these columns, at
greater length than would here be ])(ps-
siblo. Moreover, different situations af-
ford greater opportunities or jx'rhaps re-
strict tlieni. A shop in a crowile<l busi-
ness center cannot be the same as one in
a residence district where real estate is
not valued so highly. While a conserv-
atory is generally held, nowadfiys, to
add much to a store's sales ability, par-
ticularly in jilaiits, yet there arc <-<inili
tions that do not allow this feature and
flower shops so restricted are among the
most successful.
Large show windows, liowcxcr, seem
to be invariably essential, as mncli so
as comfortably arranged interiors. The
presence of chairs and benches arranged
for customers' convenience, desks at
which to write cards and orders, cases
and tables that show, rather than hide,
accessories and stock for sale, has been
generally accepted as indispensable.
One might name more of the features
of such stores, but study of stores
among the newest and best affords a
better means of guiding those florists
who wish to advance still farther along
this particular path of the trade's
progress.
In Kansas City.
At the top of page 41 is shown the
exterior and above, on this page, the
interior of the newest and one of the
finest stores in Kansas City. The open-
ing of the new store of the Chandler
Landscape & Floral Co., Kansas City,
Mo., took place Saturday, November 20.
It is at Forty-seventh street and Mill
Creek parkway. The location is admir-
ably adapted to a shop of its kind, be-
ing at the entrance to the country club
and in a select residence district, where
business is restricted and shops must
conform to artistic architectural design.
Harmony of line, color and arrangement
have been combined in the building and
grounds. The store is 50x60 feet,
rounded in front, with seven large plate
glass windows facing the boulevard on
the south and east and Forty-seventh
street on the north. It is of cream
stucco, in the Spanish style of architec-
ture, with trimmings of blue and brown
and a red "tile roof. The interior is
finished in ivory and soft gray, with
sand shade silk hangings. The floor is
marble. An icebox with circular front is
built in and has a capacity of 900 pounds.
Ivory wicker furniture is upholstered
in old blue tapestry. Lighting is
from the ceiling through ground glass
globes. A conservatory opens from the
store by means of French doors, giving
a full view of pot and foliage plants of
all descriptions. Concrete walls, stuc-
coed in cream color, match the color
scheme of the building. The smoke-
stack also is covered with cream color
stucco. The conservatory is 25x75 feet.
Heating pipes and hangers are bronzed
to give added beauty to the place.
Cement walks are used throughout, in
order that customers may inspect pur-
chases without the usual annoyance of
mud and water in the paths.
Three 36x100 pipe-frame houses,
heated throughout by gravity steam,
were installed by the American Green-
house Mfg. Co., which planned and built
the entire range. The boiler house is
a stucco building. The total cost of the
place is between $50,000 and $60,000.

pany, arranged the ferns, baskets and

plants used in decorating the store the
opening day. To show their good will
for the new store, handsome floral
baskets were sent by the Kansas City
Wholesale Cut Flower Co., the T. J. Noll
Floral Co., Henry Kusik & Co., the Pine-
hurst Floral Co., Samuel Murray and
the W. L. Rock Flower Co.
The company is incorporated. M. E.
Chandler is president and C. A. Chand-
ler secretary and treasurer. Both men
have lived in Kansas City for a num-
ber of years and stand high in their
business. C. A. Chandler was for many
years connected with the park board,
having charge of the landscape work for
the city. The Chandlers have been in
their present location four years and
commenced the new buildings last sum-
mer. One of the new greenhouses will
be used for growing carnations. The
other two will be for potted plants and
bedding stock of all kinds. The com-
pany expects to grow mums also next
year.
In St. Louis.
At the bottom of page 41 is shown a
view of the exterior of the store of the
Sanders Nursery Co., St. Louis. This is
at 623 Clara avenue, in the heart of the
fashionable residential district in the
west end. Its quaint style of architec-
ture gives a distinctive tone to the
building and marks the store as one that
will be remembered. The large show
windows serve admirably to draw
passers' attention by means of the ex-
cellent displays therein. In available
nooks in front and at the side of the
building are plantings in summer that
add to the atmosphere a florist should
create.
As will be noted from the illustrations
on the following page, the interior of
the store of the Sanders Nursery Co. pre-
sents a notably homelike appearance,
one that impresses itself upon visitors'
notice by its comfort and coziness. Pot-
tery is well displayed and proves a
profitable side line. Ample refrigerator
display space serves to show flowers
excellently. Through the bai-k of the

store is an unobstructed view of the
conservatory, where there is a large
showing of plants. The effort necessary
to plan and perfect the atmosphere one
feels in this store seems to be amply
compensated by the excellent class of
trade enjoyed at this establishment.
In Atlanta.
Does a store have to be an elabbrate
structure in a big metropolis to be a
fashionable flower store! The answer
is no, for in some smaller cities, and in
some towns which are given the more
pretentious title only in their local
newspapers, there are stores handsomely
equipped and excellently arranged,
Convenience and Comfort Sell as Many Flowers as Do Persuasive Arguments.
whose tone appeals to the upper crust of
local society.
Take Atlanta, Ga., for instance.
Though it's not so large as Kansas City
or St. Louis, and its consumption of
flowers is not at all in the same class
with that of either of those other two
cities, it nevertheless has its fashion-
able flower stores, not the least among
which is that recently opened by the
•loy Floral Co. This firm had its suc-
cess in Nashville and Chattanooga to
guide it in the venture into this new ter-
ritory.
The store, at 548 Peachtree street,
was opened November 1.5. C. J. Har-
rison went from Nashville to become
manager. With him is Miss Carrie
<!hance. Regular shipments are made
each day from the Nashville store.
With the new range of glass, which has
just been completed there, the supply
of flowers is ample at all times to care
lor all classes of orders.
The exterior of the store, shown on
tills page, is notable for its ample show
windows, in which the display consists
of artistically arranged baskets and
\ases of cut flowers. One plate glass
window bears the slogan, while the
other carries the F. T. D. insignia, be-
neath which is again the slogan, supple-
mented by the words, "By wire to any
part of the world in a few hours ' time. ' '
Two views of the interior are shown,
at the bottom of pages 42 and 4:!.
The furnishings, largely from the A. L.
Randall Co., Chicago, which completely
outfitted this firm's other stores, are
effectively arranged. The wicker fur-
niture is convenient and comfortable
for ])atrons, and allows tlieni to survey
the offerings in the long icebox at leis-
ure. The lighting, the flooring, indeed,
every detail has been carri«'<l out to give
that air of up-to-dateness, of ])rogres-
sivenoss which makes the apjieal dwelt
upon in this article. Without the eiabo-

l.andscajie Ac l''liir;il ('o., Kansas City,
Mo., took ]ilace Saturday, November 20.
It is at Forty-seventh street and Mill
< 're(d< |iiirkway. The location is admir-
• ibly adapted to a shop of its kind, be-
ing .at the entrance to the country club
,ind ill a sidect residence district, where
liiisiness is restricted and sho|»s must
conform to artistic ;irchitectiiral design.
Harmony of line, color .and arrangement
lia\e b(>en combined in the building and
grounds. The store is fiDxGO feet,
rounded in front, with seven large plate
glass windows facing the boulovard on
the south and east and Porty-scventh
street on the north. It is of cream
stucco, in th(» Spanish style of .architec-
tiire, with trimmings of Idue and brown
and a red tile roof. The interior is
(iiiished in ivory and soft gray, with
sand shade silk hangings. The floor is
marble. An ic(d>ox with circular front is
built in and has a capacity of 900 pounds.
Ivory wicker furniture is upholstered
in old blue tapestry. Lighting is
from the ceiling through ground glass
globes. A conservatory ojiens from the
store by means of French doors, giving
.1 full \iew of ])ot and foliag«' i)lants of
.ill descrii)tions. Concrete walls, stuc-
coed in cream color, match the color
scheme of the building. The smoke-
stack .also is covered with cream color
stucco. The conservatory is iGx?.") feet.
Heating ]iipes and hangers are bronzed
to give added beauty to Ih-- place,
t'ement walks are used throughout, in
order that customers may inspect pur-
chases without the usual annoyance of
mud and water in the paths.
Three 36x100 pipe-frame liouses,
heated throughout by gravity steam,
were installed by the American (ireen-
honse Mfg. Co., which planned and built
the entire range. The boiler house is
a stucco building. The total <'ost of the

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

9e CARE OF THE CUTTINGS x
PROPAGATING OWN-BOOT ROSES.
To Propagate or Purchase?
In most establishments roses are
propagated for greenhouse forcing be-
tween the months of November and
March. A florist inquiring as to the
best methods of propagation remarks
that in his estimation it seems to be
cheaper to buy all rose stock than to
propagate it. "The only advantage
in doing one's own propagating," he
says, "is that the plants are on the
place when they are needed and de-
structive rose pests are kept away from
the establishment." It must be admit-
ted that the latter part of this state-
ment is important, since in some sec-
tions of this country today the plants
of some growers are badly infested with
midge and another still worse insect
which must be kept within bounds.
Whether it is cheaper to buy rose
stock or do one's own prppagation is
something of a question, but many of
the largest rose growers today make
contracts with reputable propagators
to do their grafting or propagating
for them instead of doing it themselves,
and concentrate entirely on the cut
flower end of the business, so as to
keep their benches working 100 per
cent every day of the year. The stock
of every reliable propagator, if grown
for sale, is examined once or twice a
year by the department of agriculture
in his state, and if the stock is clean
he gets a certificate from the state to
that effect. In buying rose plants, as
in buying anything else, one must con-
sider the quality and cleanliness of the
stock in considering the cost. Of course
it would be better to do one's own
propagating than to buy inferior or
diseased stock.
Choosing Clean Cuttings.
In propagating roses from cuttings,
it is first of all important that the
foliage be absolutely free from mildew,
black spot or insects. Many growers
fail through lack of care in this respect.
They do not worry about mildew on
their stock because they feel sure they
can get rid of it as soon as the plants
get rooted. Any grower who benches
cuttings infected with black spot, even
to a small degree, should know that the
black spot will be greatly aggravated
and in most cases the foliage will fall
off entirely before the plants are rooted.
Granted, then, that one has clean,
healthy stock to work on, the cuttings
should be made of half-ripened wood.
By half-ripened wood is meant wood
that is in the stage when the flower bud
is ready to cut. This is the simplest
description of wood that is ready to be
put in the sand. The rose will make
roots whether cut above or below a
joint. The ideal cut has three eyes, one
immediately beneath where the cut has
been made, and one or two above the
soil. Three-eye cuttings make plants
much more quickly than smaller cut-
tings without the eye below the ground
when benched. When a three-eye cut-
ting is used, the plants begin almost at
once to produce growth shoots. A plant
that does not have a base eye when the
cutting is made will not produce ground
shoots nearly so quickly or in such
quantity as when the cutting is prop-
erly made.
Temperature of House and Sand.
The proper temperature at which to
keep the house is also important. Many
growers blot out the north bench with
plant cloth and use this for propagation
and it does fairly well. The ideal con-
ditions, however, are in a north house
where the winter sun will not affect the
temperature, and where the temperature
can be kept at 70 degrees in the sand
and 65 degrees in the house itself.
Eoses can be grown in many ways,
but I am speaking now of the ideal way
and of the conditions under which own-
root roses are propagated most success-
fully. I may mention in passing that
wood from plants that have been ex-
cessively fed with nitrogenous fertilizer
will give a high percentage of loss in
the cutting bench. This is another
reason why it sometimes pays to buy
from a dealer who makes a specialty
of growing young plants, as he would
naturally pay more attention to the
condition of his wood than to the condi-
Rooting Rose Cuttings on a Large Scale in a Big Middle Western Establishment.

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

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

business. Some varieties do not carry
so well when sub.iected to the harsh
treatment accorded them in the mar-
ket. Those in this list sell well with
us and can lie dejjended on for their
shijijiing jiroperties .and endiirniu'e much
more than the average single. These,
also, are given in the order of their
flowering season: White — Mrs. W. H.
Waite, Millicent Pijier and Mensa. Pink
— Mrs. BuckiiicrhaiJi, Mildred Presby
.nnd Mrs. E. D. Godfrey. Mrs. P.uckin^'
ham is a dwarf, a handsome grower,
jiarticularly ^•alual)le for use in a place
where head room is limited. Mrs. E.
I). Godfrey is the pink grown jirac-
tically to the exclusion of every other
jiink single chrysiinthemum for Thanks-
giving. Yellow — Vivian Cook, Golden
Mensa and Rose ]M. Daly. Bronze —
Ida Katherinc Skiff, Richard Delafield
and Gloriana; these three varieties will
bring in more money than any other
color on the entire list.
In the large-flowering varieties the
list would be: White — Early Frost,
Alice Daj', Oconto and William Turner.
Pink — Unaka, Chieftain, Nerissa and E.
Seidewitz. Yellow — Golden Glow,
Chrysolora, Richmond and Yellow
Turner. Bronze — Bronzo Unaka, Octo-
ber Herald and William H. Waite.
This list, of course, can be' materially
increased, but for the average man
starting in business it will be found
satisfactory and ample. C. H. T.
HOPPERS DAMAGE MUMS.
I have sent you an animal which
oats hundreds of our mums at night.
What is it, and how can I get rid of
this pest? F. & F.— Wis.
The animal is what we call a hop-
jter. While we have seen ^a great num-
l)er of them, we have never found that
they eat any flowers. They have done
us most damage by skipping over the
flowers and bruising the petals. Our
greatest trouble from them is after the
blooms are cut and standing in water
in the cellar. Dampness seems to
draw them and they hop about on the
flowers, causing the petals to damp.
Fumig;iting with nicotine extract we
have found to be the best remedy.
OUTDOOR CHRYSANTHEMUMS.
Will you give me the names of really
early mums and pompons which will
bloom outdoors with but little protec-
tion? P. D.— 111. '
Tliere are several varieties of chrys-
anthemums that are hardy <?nough to
flower successfully around Chicago.
One must not only contend with the
early frosts in order to flower them
outside, but with the tarnish plant bug
as well. These are so destructive to
the plants that it hardly pays to bother
with outdoor mums. All the chrysan-
themum specialists offer a list of hardy
varieties and I would suggest that you
request them to send you their list.
EXTERMINATE ROOT BORER.
I have ,just dug \^^ a patch of straw-
berry plants which were ruined by a
light-colored root borer with a reddish
brown head and three-quarters of an
inch long. I want to plant chrysanthe-
mums in this soil and I should like to
know whether this insect would be in-
juriims to them in .nnv wav.
K."B. H. M.— Cul.
It certainly would be poor policy to
plant chrysanthemums or any other
plants on land that is infested with root
borers. I would suggest that you sow
it down to grass or some field crop until
you are sure that it is free from borers.

STROUT'S NEW VARIETIES.
Strout's, Inc., of Biddeford, Me., has
commenced to disseminate the new 3'cl-
low carnation, Maine Sunshine. This is
a clear yellow seedling of commercial
habits, which originated at Cottage Gar-
dens from a cross of Mrs. C. W. Ward
and Crystal White and was purchased,
with all other valuable sports and seed-
lings, by Strout's, Inc., in 1918, when
the carnation range at Cottage Gardens
was closed.
This yellow has found great favor
wherever exhibited during the last three
seasons and has proved itself a valu-
able variety for the trade, aside from
its color. The blooms resemble Match-
less in size, substance and form. A. C.
S. judges have awarded it ninety points
at two annual conventions. The Dorner
gold medal for the best new variety and
the Kerr special prize for keeping after
a long shipment were awarded Maine
Sunshine at Chicago in January, 1920.
Going out with Maine Sunshine is
White Delight, a sport at Strout's in
1916, which has proved itself so valu-
able that it is used in place of Matchless
for the shipping trade. It is an im-
proved Pink Delight in all but color.
Its long stems early in the season and
steady run of bloom all winter, with
the good qualities of Pink Delight, make
it a desirable commercial sort. Like
many sports, White Delight has more
vigor than the original variety, accord-
ing to Mr. Strout.
and under the benches. There are prepa-
rations on the market for destroying
weeds in walks, etc., but I have never
seen them used in greenhouses.
A. F. J. B.
ROTATING CARNATION CROP.
We should like to know whether or
not it would be advisable to plant car-
nations in a field where carnations have
been planted for three consecutive years.
We are also troubled with weeds grow-
ing in walks and under our carnation
benches. We have to hoe them out sev-
eral times a season. Is there any possi-
ble way to prevent their growth without
doing harm to the carnation plants f
S. B.— 111.
It is considered inadvisable to plant
any kind of crop on the same ground
continuously for many years. The prin-
cipal reason for this is that any crop
that grows may become affected by some
kind of disease, and if the same crop is
planted after a disease has obtained a
foothold, serious loss is likely to occur.
By the practice known as rotating this
condition is unlikely to occur, as a
disease which attacks one kind of plant
will probably not harm another, and by
the time the first crop comes around
again the disease has probably died out.
I have seen carnations planted in the
same field a number of years in succes-
sion without any apparent harm being
done. Care was taken to take off the
field anj- plants that died during the
summer. That probably is what made it
possible.
The hoe is probably the best means of
getting rid of the weeds in your walks
SLEEPY CARNATIONS.
We have had considerable trouble this
fall with sleepy carnations, especially
Nebraska, Ethel Fisher, Enchantress
Supreme and Ruth Baur. The plants
liave every appearance of being healthy.
Do you think this condition might pos-
sibly have been caused by a light ap-
plication of sheep manure in early Octo-
ber? * G. & S.— 111.
No harm should have resulted from a
light application of sheep manure in
October, provided the general growing
conditions were right. Also, if only one
or two varieties were affected, we might
blame the varieties. But inasmuch as
all your varieties seem similarly af-
fected, it must be in the culture. Octo-
ber was unusually warm and some va-
rieties might be expected to show signs
of sleepiness until cool weather set in,
but we have had enough cool weather
this month to remedy it.
If your carnations are growing on
raised benches, examine the soil at the
bottom of the beds and see whether the
water has penetrated to the bottom.
Sometimes trouble is experienced from
iliat source after firing has commenced,
for the reason that, in watering, no al-
lowance was made for drying out from
the bottom, due to the heat from the
steam pipes. Lacking full details of
the conditions under which these plants
are growing, we can only suggest that
>ou make every effort to keep the grow-
ing conditions as near ideal as possible.
Give abundant ventilation on all favor-
;ible occasions. Keep both night and
day temperatures steady and water ju-
diciously. Avoid all feed that is rich
ill nitrogen until the trouble has en-
tirely disappeared. Then, if your soil
is right, you should have no such trouble
lis you complain of. A. F. J. B.
BROOD OF RED SPIDERS.
I am sending you a carnation plant
that has some sort of disease. Do you
think that it is a case of rusti If so,
what is the cause of it, and what is the
best treatment? M. H. L. — Ind.
The only thing wrong with the speci-
men submitted is a healthy brood of
red spiders. Get busy with the hose
while there is still time before winter
weather sets in. This warm fall weather
has been favorable to this pest wherever
preventive measures were not employed.
Use all the force at your command and
syringe the plants thoroughly from both
sides two or three times weekly if the
weather remains bright. Salt water is
one of the best remedies for spider, if
used as has been frequently recom-
mended in these columns.

wedding flowers. They say their tele-
graph delivery orders, both in and out,
increase steadily and have become an
important part of the business.
diaries City, la. — Ray W. Ferris, of
Hampton, la., has purchased the green-
houses recently owned by W. H. Weth-
erbee, and took control December 1.
The property was recently sold to San-
ders Bros., of Rudd, la., in exchange
for a farm. They, in turn, disposed of
it to the present owner, who conducts
a nursery at Hampton. It is probable
that for this winter, at least, Mr. Weth-
erbee will have charge of the growing.
Lansing, Mich. — Earl Edgerton, gla-
diolus specialist here for the last five
years, is closing out his business and
will go to the Hawaiian islands. Mr.
Edgerton has been a wholesale grower
of bulbs and has also raised some yellow,
white and light lavender seedling gla-
dioli. These he will leave with other
Lansing gladiolus growers, including
Fred Baumgras, Floralcroft Gladiolus
Gardens and Walter Wliitelcv.
Petoskey, Mich. — Frank Winans has
discontinued the retail branch of his
business. His entire attention will be
devoted to growing bulbs and plants
for the trade.
St. Paul, Minn. — A. W. Lemke has
moved from his old location, at 160
West Sixth street, to the new Hamm
building, in this city, and is now doing
business at the new store.
Enid, Okla. — A. H. Freeborough, for-
merly a grower for the Albuquerque
Greenhouses, Albuquerque, N. Max., is
now employed Vith the Enid Floral Co.,
of this place, being a grower in the car-
nation range.
Milwaukee, Wis. — The Milwaukee
Florists' Publicity Association is the
new name given to the organization
which was formerly known as the Flo-
rists' Advertising Clubr The former
name resulted in occasional confusion
locally.
Moorhead, Minn. — The Briggs Floral
Co. is using the local newspapers and
is profiting by the advertising. J. W.
Briggs reports that business has been
good and the winter season promises to
be a busy one. All available glass is
being used, regardless of the high price
of coal, and a large stock is expected for
Christmas.
Spartanburg, S. C— Fred Gentry, a
wholesale tobacco merchant of this
city, recently constructed several green-
houses on Spring street, secured the
services of an experienced florist and
will conduct a florists' business here.
Just now his specialty is cut flowers,
though he will later expand his busi-
ness to all lines. "Fred's Flowers"
are already popular here and in neigh-
boring towns.
Springfield, Mo.— Charles H. Gelven,
formerly of Cape Girardeau, Mo., who
has built and operated greenhouses in
a number of Missouri cities, has pur-
chased property at 522 Cherry street,
where he will begin the erection of
greenhouses in the spring. He also
plans to establish a flower store on the
public square. Mr. Gelven was super-
intendent of the floricultural depart-
ment of the Missouri state fair for
twelve years.
Norton, Kan.— This is the largest
town in northwestern Kansas, but it has
no greenhouse. The population is
2,500; the county has 12,000. There are
sixty blocks of paved streets and a
variety of prosperous industries, includ-
ing three banks with combined deposits
of nearly $4,000,000. Three drug stores
handle flowers, obtained from Topcka,
Kansas City and other points, but it
often happens that, when flowers are
wanted, all three druggists are out or
shipments fail to arrive as expected.

Large quantities of artificial flowers

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

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

There is no comjilaint as to the busi-

It is true, however, that the sjdendid

the local retail trade is not so active as

It seems that the Chicago market is

Christmas wants be known at once
HILE it is true that our Christmas supply

the demand be the greatest we ever have known.
We hope to fill late orders, but to be sure of

Let us recommend that you order liberally of the following:
Long Roses Carnations Calendula Valley
Poinsettias Paper Whites Stevia Lilies

The demand surely will exceed all previous records — all orders are larger than usual and

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

For Christmas
We are offering a choice lot of stock and ask that orders be placed as
early as possible. From present indications there will be a shortage of
flowers in all lines, especially roses; but we expect to have enough to fill
all advance orders.]

W. D. Matthews, head of the insiicc
tiou department of the Chicago Board
of Underwriters, which has offices in
the Insurance Exchange. 175 West Jack-
son boulevard, has called attention to
the risk of electrical installations in
connection with Christmas decorations
being made by persons without proper
knowledge of the necessary precautions.
He has addressed to some members of
the trade the following letter:
At this spnaon of the year we take the liberty
of calling your attention to the fact that tlie
installation of electric wires and lights in tlie
vicinity of inflammHt)lp docoratlons. as used in
sliow windows, and other decorative features,
has been the cause of innumerable fires with
more or less serious results. These fires almost
invariably arise from the practice of allowing
employees not familiar with the electrical haz-
ard to install lamp cord, fuses, motors, flashers,
miniature lamps in aeries on 110-volt circuits,
cotton batting and tinsel in contact with lamps

Club Meeting.
There waa a nice little flower show
at the meeting of the Florists' Club at
the Randolph hotel December 9. It
was the night of the annual election,
but the excitement of a contest was
lacking. The following were elected
unanimously:
President, Joseph Kohout; vice-presi-
dent, A. T. Pyfer; treasurer, A. H.
Schneider; secretary, F. Lauten-
schlager; trustee for three years, Au-
gust F. Poehlmann.
Various Notes.
Andrew Benson has joined the forces
of Paul Weiss and associates, having
taken charge of the growing at the
Premier Rose Gardens, succeeding David
Lundiu. Mr. Benson, it will be recalled,
until recently was with the Lombard
Floral Co.
The Albert F. Amling Co., at May-
wood, is preparing to "cash in" at
Christmas, having timed the Columbia
just right for a full cut. It is said the
company has the world 's largest plant-
ing of Columbia. Good crops also are
in prospect in other sections of the place.
W. A. Hansen left last week to spend
a fornight swinging around the circle
of the customers of the E. C. Amling
Co., from Des Moines, St. Paul, Detroit,
Cleveland, Pittsburgh, Cincinnati and
St. Louis.
The first fruits of the recent election,
so far as florists are concerned, ripened
this week. Many of the newly elected
officials were inducted into office Decem-
ber 6. Nearly all of them received
flowers and several received huge quan-
tities of them. The new state 's attor-
ney received more than 100 baskets and
good luck designs, some of them repre-

mand for flowers was much smaller than
now, the Chicago market sold great
quantities of long Beauties at Christ-
mas, at $10 to $15 per dozen. One
Christmas our own house alone sold
23,000 Beauties, most of them long.
These flowers are not now available in
such quantity and their place is taken
by the best grade of Premier, Milady,
Kussell and Columbia. It is not right to
compare present 50-cent and 75-cent
roses with 25-cent Killarneys of the old
days. Compare them, instead, with the
dollar Beauties we used to sell in quan-
tity; they go to the same stores and to
the same consumers."
According to the Weather Bureau,
November was not a favorable month
for the growers. The mean temperature
was 1 degree above normal, but, most
important, there was only forty-five per
cent of the possible number of hours of
sunshine, which is three per cent less
than the average for November over a
series of years.

Tlie Market.
This is the between-holiday time,
when the cut flower business runs along
quietly, but everyone is getting ready
for the big holiday of the year. Chrys-
anthemums have finished and it is a
good thing, as it gives other stock a
chance to clean up. Retailers say they
are not busy and are now getting time
to prepare for Christmas.
Carnations seem to be scarce. For
some reason fewer carnations appear
on this market each year. Violets, also,
are among the flowers that are not much
in evidence this season, and few have
appeared on the market so far.
Various Notes.
There is considerable complaint from
the lily growers that the cold storage
bulbs are not turning out successfully.
There are so many poor bulbs, they
claim, that it is doubtful if they can
get purchase money out of their ven-
tures.
The Pittsburgh Retail Florists' As-
sociation held its monthly meeting
Thursday evening, December 2, at
the Oriental restaurant, Liberty avenue.
A pleasant and enjoyable evening was
spent. Sunday closing was the question
under discussion and the sentiments of
the out-of-town florists were that Sunday
closing would not be profitable to them.
The local florists, however, expressed
the opinion that Sunday closing would
be possible.

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

It remains to be seen, as the holidays
approach, whether this is a mere tempo-
rary condition or one which must be
faced from now on. Certain it is that a
much smaller quantity of flowers is be-
ing used, and if ever some smart local
publicity would be useful, it is right
now.
While roses are in somewhat better
supply, arrivals are not at all heavy.
The quality generally is fine, particularly
in the long-stemmed grades. The move-
ment of all roses is slow. American
Beauty is in quantity quite sufficient for
the demand, at $3,5 to $75 for the spe-
cial grades. Hybrid teas are bringing $3
to $30, the latter figure for the best
grade of Premier, Columbia, Russell and
Crusader. Hadley in the same grade
reaches the $40 mark, and Key $60.
Premier, among the pinks, is showing to
fine advantage.

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

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

The flower business from all stand-

to the present, there does not appear to
be much Christmas spirit felt. There
are those who fear that the Christmas
business this ye.Tr will be poor, judging
from the large numbers of people out of

poor, but Thanksgiving business turned

Hugo Teute is supplying the local
fltorea with some fine begonias and cyc-
lamens in 5-inch and 6-inch pots. He is
cutting a fair quantity of good chrysan-
themums now and they are bringing ex-
cellent returns.
A large window of the store of Salter
Bros., East Main street, was decorated
with small favors in various sizes and
forms, filled with strawflowers, and
weegee birds, with large sprays of Jap-
anese lanterns hung from the sides of
the window frames. The window was
full of color and attracted much atten-
tion. H. J. H.
PHILADELPHIA.
The Market.
The week of November 28 to Decem-
ber 4 was less active than its predeces-
sor. There was a smaller supply of
flowers and a decidedly lighter demand
for them. The social season is in full
swing. There are balls and parties and
dinners and entertainments of all kinds.
Most of them require flowers of some
sort, yet the market is so large that
even all this entertaining is not suffi-
cient to make activity in the absence of
a general demand. And there is no
general demand. The few florists who
are termed fashionable, those who serve
the 400, are awfully busy. They have
all they can possibly do. The many
florists who serve the 400,000 or so are
not busy. Many of them are quite the
reverse. They are getting their Christ-
mas plants and making up their Christ-
mas hampers.
With the advent of December the
leading retailers told their customers
that chrysanthemums were getting poor,
diverting the demand to roses, now com-
ing into season. It is just as well, as,
with the exception of fine white, useful
in decorations, and belated pink, chrys-
anthemums are much nearer to being
over than seemed possible ten days ago.
There are still a good many pompons,
which sell pretty well, especially the
bright yellows and the good class of
pinks. The wholesalers complain that
the growers are reducing the size of the
bunches, an effort to control the market
tliat does harm, rather than good.
Columbia is the leading rose today.
There are more Columbia sold than any
other variety and the price of Columbia
is used as a basis for determining the
prices of some of the other varieties.
The rose crop generally is getting heav-
ier, which is a good thing, as the market
is none too well supplied with other
flowers. Carnations have not come in
so freely as was expected. They have
held their price well in the face of a
slightly declining market. Paper White
narcissi have been overabundant at
about half the figures of two weeks ago.
A cheap bunch can be made today with
Stevia serrata and Narcissus Paper
White.
The demand for orchids is a little
less lively, causing a decline from the
extreme prices of a week ago. Sweet
peas are suffering from their cloudy-
weather enemy — bud dropping. Never-
theless, a fair number continue to arrive.
Easter lilies are doing well and will do
better when Jeanne Nonin disappears.
Snapdragons are beginning to gain
in favor, but calendulas are rather neg-
lected.

is encouraging. There is likely to

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

The Show Educational.
An important feature of the Pennsyl-
vania Horticultural Society's show, held
in the First Regiment armory last month,
was its educational value; not only to
those who know a little about plants and
flowers and fruits and vegetables, but to
those who do not. The society did a
good act when the school children were
invited to the show. They came and
enjoyed it. Another step forward would
be made by providing a committee to
tell the children something about the
show and to answer their questions.

What an inspiration it would be to
those children to have half an hour
with Dennis Conner and to hear his
happy descriptions of the exhibits!
Why, it would make horticulturists of
half of them and life-long flower lovers
of the remainder.
The exhibit of the Charles H. Totty
Co., of Madison, N. J., had great educa-
tional value. The hardy little pompons,
singles and anemones attracted many
amateurs. The new and standard vari-
eties in the same types from A. N. Pier-
son, Cromwell, Conn., were of great
educational value in affording oppor-
tunity for comparison between old and
new.
Club Meeting.
The December meeting of the Florists'
Club was held in the City Club, Broad
street, Tuesday evening, December 7.
Charles H. Totty, of Madison, N. J., was
the speaker of the evening. Mr. Totty
gave an interesting account of his trip
abroad. He described the carnations
grown in England by W. E. Wallace in
American-built houses, the finest plants
he ever saw, eight feet in height, with
wonderful flowers.
The exhibits included Christmas flow-
ering plants from the Robert Craig Co.,
among them some marvelous cyclamens;
decorative plants from William K. Har-
ris; foliage wreaths and holly from Her-
man Fimmer, and specimens of the two
roses, American Legion and The Oem,
from Edward Towill.
The attendance was large.

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

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

long establishment, at Auburn, R. I.,
was almost destroyed by a terrific hail
storm. Anyone visiting the salesroom
now and seeing the big shipments of
splendid roses in some twenty varieties
coming in daily must marvel at the
speed with which the houses were re-
paired and even more at the quality
of the flowers coming in from plants
which appeared almost beyond recovery
only last September.
Julius Quint, younger brother of
Harry Quint, is convalescing from an
operation for appendicitis performed at
the Eliot hospital.
The houses of the W. W. Edgar Co.
are filled to overflowing with excellent
Christmas plants. Splendid houses of
cyclamens and begonias make a great
show. In addition are quantities of
poinsettias, primulas, solanums, Purity
freesias, Euphorbia jacquiniseflora, ferns,
palms, etc. Mr. Bartsch, as usual, has
everything in excellent shape.
Herbert W. Schlaffhorst, secretary-
attorney for the allied horticultural in-
terests which are fighting for the revi-
sion of Quarantine No. 37, who has his
headquarters at Horticultural hall, is
much encouraged by the support being
received from all parts of the country in
the fight against the F. H. B. and the
campaign will be pushed with increas-
ing vigor.
At the Houghton-Gorney shop some
fine hybrid hippeastrums and well flow-
ered camellias were noted last week.

The Market
With the chrysanthemums practically
gone, the local market has settled itself
u]ion the ever dejiendable cornerstones,
roses and carnations. These are now
coming into the market in good supply
and good quality, but the prices hold
slightly above those of a year ago. It
is doubtful if they will fall much below
the present range this season, because
of the excessive price of coal and labor.
The first of the Christmas greens came
to hand last week, but it is evident that
it's a handsome
thing —
this jardiniere — it is an
aid toward beautifying:
potted plants-
cut flowers —
ferns —
baskets — and in gen-
eral use for deco-
rative purposes.

Christmas trees, holly and mistletoe,
which rank among the most important
of the decorative features of the holiday
season, will cost more than ever this
year and the blame is placed on Uncle
Sam and the railroads for the predicted
rise in prices. A sliortage of the supply
from Canada will also affect the market
here. The North Carolina holly crop
is reported as practically without ber-
ries.
Various Notes.
William E. Chajjpell has been confined
to his home by a severe attack of illness.
Charles Smith was in "Worcester and
vicinity last week on business for the
Eastern "Wreath Co.
Swansons, Florists, are contemplating
making radical changes and additions at
their place on Stenton avenue in the
spring.
Charles Hunt has been overhauling
and renovating several small green-
houses on Blackstone street that have
not been in use for the last three years.
Smith the Florist reports a big busi-
ness since taking space in the "Washing-
ton market.
Edward Brooke, of T. J. Johnston &
Co., was a business visitor in Boston
and vicinitv last week.
Eugene McCarron had a large wedding
decoration last week of southern smilax
and chrysanthemums. The attendants
carried colonial bouquets.

The Market.
The market has been in a good condi-
tion. Ample stock has been coming in
to meet all demands. "While a few chrys-
anthemums are still available, the sup-
ply is so meager that it can be said the
mum season is over. Roses are in good
shape. Good Premier, Columbia and
Oj)helia are in evidence and sell well.
Numerous other varieties include all the
shades from white to red and are selling
well at from $6 to $15 per hundred.
Carnations are plentiful, but will not
be any too numerous for Christmas.
The price is from $4 to $6, with Laddie
bringing $8 per hundred. Lilies are ex-
tremely scarce. Sweet peas are coming
in slowly. A great deal of dark weather
has retarded their growth and caused
them to drop their buds. The price has
been steady at $3 per hundred for good
peas, although a few poorer ones have
been selling for $2. Stevia has been
filling a large place in the market. As
always before, it is especially popular
for corsage and basket work. Calendu-
las are in evidence and are popular for
this kind of work.
Potted plants are fairly abundant.
There has been a fair demand for
Jerusalem cherries, begonias, primroses
and ferns. Cyclamens have been coming
into bloom rather slowly. Although
there will be a larger supply at Christ-
mas, there will be no overabundance.
Various Notes.
Irwin Bertermann has returned from
French Lick, where he has been taking
a rest.
I. Eosnosky, of the A. B. C, called on

I Our city greenhouses, 36,000 square feet of glass, modern, at entrance |
I to largest and best cemttery in city, yet within 10 blocks of center of |
I retail district. These houses, 15 in number, were built 15, 17 and 19 |
I years ago, are particularly adapted to raising potted plants, for which i
I there is a great city and surrounding trade waiting. Retailers in this |
I section, in Kansas, Oklahoma and Texas, are awaiting everything that f
j can be grown. These houses produced and sold direct in 1918 $60,000.00. |
I St. Joseph, with 80,000 inhabitants, is the most substantial city in the |
I best all-around and resourceful state in the Union, 75 miles from the |
i intersection of Missouri, Kansas, Nebraska and Iowa, 60 miles from |
I Kansas City. |
I Reason for selling, the death of member of our firm who managed |
I these houses, and our departure from the plant business, having larger |
I houses and interests in cut flower trade which requires all our personal |
I attention. |
I Besides the usual Christmas, Easter and bedding plant line, we have |
I two houses in carnations, four in mums, force 40,000 Paper Whites, 20,- |
I 000 Dutch bulbs and 2,000 lilies; have extra cold house with wooden roof, |
I and bulb cellar, all in splendid condition; street paved, all improvements |
I in. Soil and water the best. |
I Price, $45,000, based on conservative inventory made in 1918 for |
I U. S. Internal Revenue office. It would cost asking price to replace |
I houses now; land worth $12,000 and location $10,000 more. |
I Terms, half cash or Liberty bonds at market value, or the entire |
I amount in bonds at face value. |
I Every statement can be proven; invite investigation, but don't |
I bother us unless you have the wherewith and mean business. |
I Stock may be purchased at market value after Christmas. All mov- |
I able stock will be retained if you do not wish it. Transfer to be made |
I after holidays. |
I No. The name does not go with it. We expect to remain in busi- |

eries for the last five years, will start
in business for himself January 1 as a
broker in bulbs, plants, roses and gen-
eral nursery stock. His headquarters
will be at San Jose. Mr. Clarke expects
to continue handling the Cottage Gar-
dens Nurseries' products on the Pacific
coast, although on an independent
basis. Mr. Clarke is one of the best
known men in the nursery trade in Cali-
fornia and his many friends wish him
every success.
LOS ANGELES, CAL.
The Market.
The market has said good-bye to
mums for this season, but everyone in
the market is satisfied. They like to see
them come and they like just as well to
see them go. Poinsettias are arriving
to take the place of mums and the mar-
ket seems to be putting on a Christ-
mas appearance. Carnations are more
plentiful, but are bringing good prices.
Indications are that there will be a
good crop for Christmas. The retailers
report good business, there having been
several large funerals last week.
Various Notes.
Tom Wright, of Wright's Flower
Shop, had some unusual business re-
cently when he received two orders in
one day for casket palls of orchids and
pink roses, as well as a wreath consist-
ing of over 100 orchids, and a number
of other smaller pieces.
Paul Eeke reports that his fifteen
acres of poinsettias are now in full
bloom and that they are in fine condi-
tion for shipping. He is receiving many
orders for weekly and Cliristmas ship-
ping.
The E. C. Amling Co. reports a big
shipping business, especially in Califor-
nia novelties, to the Chicago market.
A carload of moss was received by this
company last week.
Chicago friends of Adam Kasper,
formerly of the E. C. Amling Co., of
Chicago, will be sorry to learn that he
thinks California is just right and in-
tends making it his future home.
Ernest C. Amling, of Orange, Cal., was
a visitor at this citv last week.
SAN FRANCISCO, CAL.
The Market.
Although a few of the large chrysan-
tliemuiiis are still being put on the mar-
ket by careful growers, they have now
become scarce. The pink varieties of
canvas-grown mums are the only ones
to be found in any abundance and they
are daily becoming fewer. Chinese-
grown mums, produced in the open, are
still plentiful and are in a much wider
variety of colors than can be found
among the big mums. The Chinese,
however, have now learned to put can-
vas on their outdoor mums as they are
nearing the flowering stage and some
of their blooms are large and luxuriant.
Violets are extremely plentiful and of
excellent quality, the rains having
brought them to exactly the condition
desired for shipping. Roses are begin-
ning to come in plentifully. Russell,
Columbia, Ophelia and Hadley are the
most numerous, but many other varieties
are to be found. Carnations are some-
what scarce and the growers who did not

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

THE BEST IN THE WEST
Seldom has such a remarkable display
of floral offerings been seen, even in
California, as marked the funeral of
Chief of Police D. A. White. Private
individuals, even strangers, sent flowers
and organizations were represented by
appropriate designs. In consequence,
many of the florists worked all night
and nearly every store in the city had
some orders. Pelicano, Rossi & Co.
made a pall which was of violets and
Hussell roses, with maidenhair fern and
heather. They also made numerous
floral pieces, including a large replica
of the Olympic Club's device, a winged
wheel in white and crimson carnations.

The blossoms are of new colors, coral-pink, carmine-rose, garnet-red, snow-white, orange and rich apricot- yellow, with
various hues at the ends of the petals. Some are tipped with chocolate, terra cotta or rich crimson. This giant strain of

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

Miss Dolores Howard, formely with

Albert O. Stein is working overtime

Speaking of the great difficulty which
the local florists are experiencing in ob-
taining capable help, F. C. Jaeger, Jr.,
said: "We hope that the newly organ-
ized Retail Florists' Association, by
shortening florists' hours, will be the
means of inducing members of the young
generation to take up this work. At
present none of them seems to be go-
ing into it. People are rushed with
business and first-class men are almost
impossible to secure. There may be a
number of men out of work in San
Francisco, but tlicy are not florists and
the long hours are deterring young men
from entering the trade." M. M.

shops had to close ahead of schedule
because they had no mums left and
could not secure more from the growers
or wholesalers. Prices held up in good
order, and pompons sold freely.
After mums, roses proved the item
favored by the buyers. The supply of
Wards was sold out early, but the trade
was able to get sufficient stock of Co-
lumbia and Ophelia to carry through.
Premier and Killarney were shown in
a small way. The notable increase in
the cut and quality of carnations caused
a better call for this flower. Several
shops noted a larger call for corsages
than at any previous Thanksgiving.
Bouvardias and orchids were in better
demand.

The regular "get-together" dinner
of the employees of the Hollywood
Gardens was held last week, at the New
Washington hotel. Motion pictures of
the greenhouses and city store were a
feature. These dinners are held about
once a month and are popular witii the
employees. This shop made a special
window display for the Washington-
Dartmouth football game, using a foot-
ball in the center, with huge baskets
of mums and pennants of the compet-

same prices as those in effect three
years ago were charged. There were
not enough long-stemmed mums avail-

L. W. McCoy reports that the
Thanksgiving trade showed a greater
demand for cut flowers than expected,
while the sales of potted i)lants were
less. This shop is receiving some fine
cut Paper Whites from its own green-
liouses and also some long-stemmed car-
nations.
H. P. Anderson, of tlie University

for his establishment. Not only was
there a heavy sale of mums for cor-

Felix Eosaia handled a recent churfh
decoration which attracted much com-
ment. He used mums and ferns for the
altar bank, Ward and Cecile Rrunner
roses in the attendants' bouquets and
lily of the valley and orchids for the
bride's bouquet.
The Burns Floral Co. has been mak-
ing a special showing lately of the
smaller potted flowers and reports a big
sale of dark-colored cyclamens. Potted
lionipons are also selling well as the
result of special window displays.
The Woodlawn Flower Shop intro-
duced a novelty football window
through the use of a goat. Two large
footballs bearing the colors of the
VVashington and Dartmouth universi-
ties formed the background and the
removal of a portion of the floor in the
window gave an opportunity for the
animal display. A big sale of corsages
for this game was reported, as well as
a fine business throughout the week.

SPOKANE, WASH.
The Market.
Stock in chrysanthemums is a little
scarce, due to Thanksgiving trade.
Carnations are suflScient to meet all de-
mands. Koses are becoming scarce, but
the quality remains good. Fine speci-
mens of cyclamen and primula are find-
ing ready sales. The scarcity of ferns
is over and they are moving fast.
AH the members of the trade report
a good Thanksgiving day business and
stock was good. In almost every case
there was plenty of everything, with
only a slight shortage of the better
grades of yellow mums.
The growers are all well stocked for
Christmas, and especially in the late
varieties of chrysanthemums. Spokane
is getting to be the center of a large
shipping trade in mums.
Various Notes.
H. L. Olsson, Inc., is busy with ever-
green festoon orders. He is ready to
supply the trade with cyclamens that
are in keeping with the standard of
plants he has produced in other years.
The Manito park greenhouses have
been a picture for the public to feast
on. Sunday finds the houses filled witli
visitors. It makes one of the best ad-
vertisements of flowers that the trade
could wish for.
The promiiu'iit growers of Spokane
have taken a six months' contract for
advertisinj:. using the slogan promi-
nently. Tlic newspapers have been
chosen in prcfi^rcnce to billboards.
Peters & iSons, of Hillyard, Wash.,
will have a large cut of chrysanthe-
mums for the Christmas trade. They
are burning sawdust exclusively as a
fuel this year, with t,niod results.
The Spokane Seed Co. reports a good
bulb trade this year. The fine, open fall
weather has allowed late planting.
The Inland Seed Co. reports a com-
plete clean-up of all bulbous stock and is
now planning for the spring trade.
The ever increasing demand for artifi-
cial baskets for Christinas is supplying
work for spare time in the stores and

In Later Life.
In laat week's article we covered the
application of onr Hlogan in the cycle
01 life from birth to marriage. Here
begins the best and happiest part of
life. There will be anniversaries of the
wedding day; often these will be cele-
brated in a formal manner, and if the
public were properly educated ' ' Say It
with Flowers" would have a more
prominent part in these anniversaries.
For instance, the wooden wedding an-
niversary comes when the principafs are
still young, full of vigor and life, and
flowers must have their part in this cele-
bration, because the young wife prides
herself on being a good housewife and
her entertainments must bear all the
marks of culture and refinement. So it
goes, all through the vcars, until the sil-
ver wedding day, when, after twenty-
five years of struggle with the world,
the hearts of these two people are be-
coming mellow; they will both be look-
ing back over that span of years, with
one thought uppermost in each of their
hearts — the sacrifices that each has been

obliged to make and the willingness
Mith which these sacrifices were made.
How many times have we, who have
bad retail store experience, listened to
some white-haired man, as he would or-
der flowers for his life partner, relate
to OS what a wonderful woman she had
been and tell of the trials encoun-
tered and the inspiration she had been
to him, of how the very thought of that
woman at home, faithfully performing
her part of the nuptial contract, with-
out any applause from the world, had
made him a buc<Asb in the business
world 1 Such a man, who has been buf-
feted by the world for twenty-five years,
finds it hard to express the sentiment
that is stored up in his heart. Do not
lose sight of the fact that sentiment is
there. The hard knocks he has received
have not been able to kill it. Dormant
though it may be, it only needs the
thought of their wedding day to resur-
rect it and a new language to express
it, and, mark you, there is Just one lan-
guage that can do this, and that Is the
language o£ flowers.
A Strong Man's Aid.
Has it ever occurred to you store peo-
ple how pitiful it sometimes is to see a
Take a Hint
From Sam
If 1 have told you this story before, don't
get sore, as all of us have been known to
repeat ourselves. It's about Sam, a
Georgian nigger. A bad nigger, who
was about to be hanged for murder.
When the rope was about his neck and
everything ready, the sheriff asked him if
he had anything to say. "I sure has, boss;
what I'se got to say is, dat dis here ex-
perience sure am going to learn Sam a
powerful good lesson."
Every Ghristmas we hear a lot of kicks
about pickled stock; every year^ a Jot
stop doiag it, and a lot more start doing
it Some day, some of them, like Sam,
are going to \eam a lesson when it's too
late. All of which gives you a pretty
definite idea of where 1 stemd.

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

young man or woman has resolved to
model his life upon that of someone who
has just passed to the great beyond;
their emotions are stirred and there is
but one way to express them, and so
they "Say It with Flowers." Older
people, when death cornea, realize how
short a span life is, at best; they, too,
are stirred deeply and flowers, again, are
the only mode of expression.

"Say It with Flowers" does not stop

large crop of f.incy Premier, Russell,
Ophelia and Columbia will be in for
Christmas. Carnations have not been
so plentiful tjiis season during the big
mum crop and it is expected they will
come forward as the mums go off the
market. Violets, it is expected, will be
scarce this season. Weather conditions
have been favorable, but the crop this
year has been small. Sweet peas are
coming in better and there are prospects
of a large crop. Prices go to $3 per
hundred for fancy stock.

been bright and the weather man
promises sunshine for the coming week;
so growers hope for big crops by Christ-
mas. Carnations have been ready to
bloom for two weeks, but growers who
shoulil be cutting hundreds daily are
getting fifty or sixty. The result is
that carnations are selling at $7 and $8
per hundred. Roses are also short and
run from $6 to $20. Mums arc about
gone. California violets are $'2 a dozen
bunches; pompons are $1 and lilies $2
jier dozen.
Last week was an unusually brisk one,
business having kept right up since
Thanksgiving without a quiet day.
Club Meeting.
The December meeting of the Kan-
sas City Florists' Club, Thursday even-
ing, December 2, in the beautiful new
store of the Chandler Landscape &
Floral Co., was one of the most interest-
ing meetings since the organization be-
gan. About ninety members were
jiresent. Three trustees were elected to
serve for periods of three, two and
one years, respectively. Nominations
had been made at the previous meeting
and the election was unanimous. P. A.
Manson, manager of the Pinehurst
Floral Co., Pleasant Hill, Mo.; William
L. Rock, president of the William L.
Rock Flower Co., and Arthur R. Smith,
of Smith & Heakin, Sunset Hill Gardens,
were chosen.

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

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

L. E, Bohannon, of the Kansas City-
Wholesale Cut Flower Co., made a mo-
tion that the trustees and officers of the
club work out some plan by which the
members be assessed a fair amount to
provide a general fund for local and na-
tional publicity. This carried without
a dissenting vote and brought up the
matter of local advertising for Christ-
mas. In less than fifteen minutes, $1,000
had been subscribed, in various amounts
from $5 to $100, for advertising in the
looal newspapers. Miss Hayden, ^I. E.
Carter, W. J. Barnes and Alpha Elber-
field were appointed a committee to take
care of this. Miss Hayden was chair-
man of a committee that raised a fund
for local advertising for Mothers' day
and this was such a success that the
florists are all willing to contribute and
make newspaper advertising a perma-
nent feature. The January meeting of
the club will be at the office of the Sun-
set Hill Gardens.

About 20,000 feet of glass are used
to produce a part of the stock sold by
the Amarillo Greenhouses, of which A.
Alenius is proprietor. Mr. Alenius
says the business has more than doubled
in two years. Finely grown pot gera-
niums are seen and the last of 8,000
mums are being cut. Pelargoniums of
the Easter Greeting type are benched
and later potted, as it is found that a
better growth is thereby secured. Good
cyclamens, cinerarias, lilies and other
pot plants are grown, as well as several
houses of carnations and a thriving lot
of sweet peas. The workroom and
service department are well arranged
and the whole establishment is in excel-
lent order.
Cunningham the Florist recently built
a Moninger greenhouse, in which fine
pot stock and mums are grown, Mrs.
Cunningham being active in the man-
agement of this. Cyclamens and be-
gonias, both of the Lorraine and sem-
perflorens types, are well done here.

The Market.
Some Seiilewitz, Bonnafifon and Mistle-
toe mums on the market last week were
all that prevented a shortage. Fortu-
nately, the demand has not yet reached
normal, but for the first cotillion, held
Monday, December 6, to start the sea-
son off in full swing, the situation cer-
tainly looked doubtful for an adequate
supply to meet the demand. The first
cotillion is one of the largest flower
days of the season. Roses and orchids
are the flowers most depended upon for
this event. These, however, have been
quite short in supply. The cause for
this is hard to tell; it cannot be duo
to any increase in the demand, for this

from the present outlook, tliero is not
oven going to be nearly enough stock
to meet it. This is a season when the
retailers will just have to meet the sit-

of stock planted, but it is not bloom-

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

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

stores, however, are busy.
The fine store of the Park Floral Co.,
on Broadway, is well equipped to handle
the big business done there. Besides
seasonable cut stock and plants, some
fine cinerarias were noted, which, B. E.
Gillis says, were grown for the Christ-
mas trade to take the place of azaleas,
as far as possible.
The Elitch-Long Gardens Co. has
several houses of finely flowered cycla-
mens and a fine lot of begonias of the
-Lorraine and Cincinnati types. These
are among the best flowered and best
grown plants noted this season.
Conrad Lengenfelder has a fine lot
of roses coming on for his Christmas
trade and also some excellent carna-
tions. His place is well looked after
and bears the stamp of careful and
skillful culture.

The Market.
Stock has been short on this market
during the last week, but business has
been quiet. White roses are rather
slow in moving, probably because there
have been few weddings since Thanks-
giving, but other grades of roses are
moving well. White and yellow nar-
cissi are arriving in large quantities,
but are moving slowly. <'arnatioiis are
arriving in large enough quantities to
meet the demand. Medium-grade mums
are still arriving, and a few pompons
are cleaning up daily. Stevia is begin-
ning to arrive in quantity, but it moves
slowly. The first sweet peas have made
their appearance.

Mant people will have mora time for
gardening next summer and less money
to speqd at the grocer's.
Papeb will have to make a greater de-
cline than seems imminent before seeds-
men will enlarge their catalogues again.
Thb seed trade preceded other lines
in feeling the present depression and,
being past /the nadir, is finding a more
optimistic ^ne.
■ The stork visited 'the home of H. G.
Pedrick, of George T^. Pedrick & Son,
Pedricktown, N. J., and left a daughter,
Elizabeth Viola.
Appbeciatino the compliment when a
contemporary reprints material verbatim
from this department, The Eeview could
express its thanks more explicitly were
a credit line added.
T. E. Johns, a director and formerly
an active member of the Sioux City Seed
Co., Sioux City, la., died December 7, at
his home at Wixom, Mich. Further re-
port appears in the obituary column of
this issue.
Since the death of Maurice Fuld, mar-
keting of Melrosine has been carried on
imder the name of the Garden Chemical
Co., New York, by one of the other indi-
viduals financially interested in this prod-
uct, the head of the Sigmund Ullman
Co., one of the biggest printing estab-
lishments in New York.
The 1920 production of Icspedeza seed
is expected to be about ten per cent less
than that of last year, because of a
smaller acreage harvested and a slightly
decreased yield per acre. The quality of
the seed probably will be good, because
most of it was harvested and considerable
has been threshed under ideal weather
conditions.
The provisions of the revised seed law
for the state of New York are discussed
in a recent publication of the experiment
station, at Geneva, and directions given
regarding seed testing and the submission
of samples for testing by the station.
Bulletin No. 476, containing detailed in-
formation regarding the labeling and test-
ing of seed, may be had free of charge
upon request.
The supply of velvet beans for seed
purposes depends on the quality of the
beans rather than on the size of the crop.
The quality of the 1920 crop is excellent.
The carryover of 1919 crop seed velvet
beans by a number of shippers and deal-
ers is large. The quality of these for
planting purposes will depend upon the
manner in which they are stored and other
factors which might affect germination.
"a supply of carpet grass seed for com-
mercial distribution several times larger
than that of any previous year has been
harvested in Louisiana and Mississippi.
Most of it is produced in East Feliciana
parish, La., and smaller quantities in ad-
joining parishes in Louisiana and south-
west Mississippi. The quality of the new
crop seed is fair to good, depending
largely upon the precautions taken by
growers to prevent heating and molding
while curing. A heavier demand than
normal has been manifested for this seed

WAB EFFECT ON FEBTILIZEBS.
A bulletin prepared by a member of
the staff of the New York Agricultural
Experiment Station, at Geneva, N. Y.,
on "Some Effects of the War upon
Fertilizers," reveals some interesting
facts. The data, collected during the
years 1914 to 1919, indicate, as sum-
marized in the bulletin. No. 471, the fol-
lowing:
"1. Effect upon kinds. The number
of complete fertilizers decreased each
year, going from 614 in 1914 to 171 in
1919. The mixtures of phosphoric acid
and potash practically disappeared by
1916, while mixtures of nitrogen and
phosphoric acid appeared in relatively
large number in 1916 and the following
years. Acid phosphate brands increased,
while nitrate of soda decreased, and
potash salts entirely disappeared. Bone,
blood and tankage decreased.
"2. Effect upon composition. In
complete fertilizers the average per-
centage of nitrogen decreased appre-
ciably after 1915, while that of potash
decreased greatly after 1914, and still
more after 1916. The average percent-
age of available phosphoric acid in-
creased considerably after 1914, but
with some variations from year to year.
The total percentage of available plant-
food decreased continually after 1914.
"3. Effect upon cost. The average
retail cost of one pound of plant-food
increased year by year continuously
after 1914 in the case of complete fer-
tilizers, going from 8.8 cents per pound
in 1914 to 33.1 cents in 1919, an increase
of nearly fourfold. In the case of acid
phosphate, nitrate of soda, bone, dried
animal manures, etc., there was an in-
crease in the retail cost of plant food,
but not relatively as great as in the
case of complete mixed fertilizers."
IMPORTS OF PLANTS AND BULBS.
In the national government 's last
quarterly report of horticultural im-
])nrts, the total receipts of plants, bulbs,
trees, shrubs and vines for the months
of April. May and June, 1920, are val-
ued at $70,709. Of the items repre-
sented in that total, the stock that is
intended to be cultivated for flowers
or foliage is valued at $11,109 and is

By an order effective November 23,
1920, the following towns were added to
those quarantined by the United States
Department of Agriculture, on account
of the European corn borer: Fairhaveii,
Mass. ; Atkinson, N. H. ; Buffalo, Elma,
Grand Island, Niagara and Wheatfield,
N. Y.
Officers of the Ladies' Auxiliary of
the California Association of Nursery-
men elected for the coming year are:
President, Mrs. D. W. Coolidge, Pasa-
dena; vice-president, Mrs. John S. Ann-
strong, Ontario; secretary, Miss Rose
Wershing, Ontario; treasurer, Mrs. Fred
H. Howard, Los Angeles. Other members
of the executive committee are Mrs. T.
R. Hills, Mrs. J. D. Meriwether, Mrs.
B. M. Teague and Mrs. John Vallance.
The Breck-Robinson Co., Lexington,
Mass., is increasing its capital stock from
$25,000 to $125,000. Of this amount $75,-
000 is to be sold to friends and customers
of the company. The balance will be
held in reserve. The company was
founded in 1912 with a capital of $25,000,
which at the time was considered ample.
The business, however, has expanded so
rapidly that additional capital is desir-
able for conducting the business to the
best advantage.
OROWENa STOCK FOR FLORISTS.
In its Nursery Trade Department, The
Review has constantly presented to that
trade the possibilities in developing
business among florists. That urging is
so ably presented in the editorial which
appears on the opening page of the
National Nurseryman for December, by
one whose sole interest has been in that
trade for many years, that it is quoted
in entirety here, in order that this im-
portant matter may be brought to as
wide a circle of nurserymen as possible:
"The proper cooperation between the
nursery and florists' trades has never
been developed to the extent that would
seem called for by their close connec-
tion.
"The fault seems to be rather on the
side of the nurserymen, as they are to
a great extent the growers of the raw
materials which the florist works up
into a condition for the consuming
public.
"There are many florists who also do
a nursery business, in fact try to cover
the whole scope of horticultural art
from making a funeral design or deco-
rating for a society function to laying
out an estate, and perhaps in fewer in-
stances the same may be said about the
nurserymen.
"There is no reason why they should
not, if their organization is big enough
to carry experts to compete with spe-
cialists in the various linos.
"But this is an age of specialists, and
usually all the concentration and skill
available is necessary to carry on one
branch of the business successfully.
"With the shutting off of the foreign
supply of what might be termed the raw
material in the way of plants for forc-
ing, it opens up a big field that is in the
province of the nursery grower. It re-
mains to be seen if the nurserymen
proper will force the florists' trade to
grow its own material. While it is fool-
ish to attempt to draw an arbitrary line
between the florist and nurseryman, the
fact remains there is a recognized prov-
ince for each, due to the fact that the
florists' trade is largely one of green-
houses and stores, while the nursery
trade is growing upon acreage.
"The nursery trade should plan to
propagate all the plants the florists
need, and bring them to the stage de-
sired, which is usually 'ready to be
forced.' It is only necessary to recall
the large quantity of rhododendrons,
azaleas, deutzias, roses and other hard-
wooded plants that used to be imported
to realize the immense demand for early
spring-blooming subjects the florist
needs in his business. Unless it is
available, the florists' trade will either
grow them itself, or substitute bulbs,
herbaceous and what is generally known
as greenhouse plants for the winter de-
mand for plants for interior decoration.
"There is no doubt the florists' trade
will develop its own growers of green-
house plants that were formerly im-
ported. Its equipment is along the line
necessary for the production of this
class of plants, but for the propagation
and material of woody plants the nurs-
eryman is in the best position to give
the florist what he needs.
"There are endless ways in which
the florists' trade could be catered to, to
the advantage of both trades. Ever-
greens for winter is one of them. Few
nurseries make any special effort to give
the florists' trade all it needs in tubbed
evergreens for porch decorations, or
small evergreens for window boxes, or
cut evergreens for interior decoration,
yet there are many beautiful subjects
practically unknown to the florist that
could be grown in quantity for the pur-
poses of cutting.
' ' There may be reasons why southern
smilax, holly, galax leaves, laurel, ferns,
mahonia, etc., are gathered from the
wild and shipped long distances in such
quantities, but those reasons are not
complimentary to the enterprise of the
nursery trade. This source may be per-
manent, but it is very much like wast-
ing natural resources.
"Then there is a big field in orna-
mental berried plants which the flo-
rists ' trade knows very little about, and
it is up to the nurserymen to show them.
One can almost imagine the sensation a
big supply of Celastrua scandens, Ilex
verticillata and deciduous evonymus
would cause if it were available in quan-
tity and in prime condition for the flo-
rists' decorating trade."
AMERICAN ROOT STOCKS.
Why Not Grow Our Own?
"The federal quarantine law which
has gone into effect, prohibiting the
importation of many classes of nursery
stock into the United States, will prob-
ably be the cause of rapidly developing
the growing of seedlings as root stocks
in this country," declared George C.
Roeding, president of the California
Nursery Co., Niles, Cal., at the recent
convention of the California Associa-
tion of Nurserymen. "Last summer I

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

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

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

The Florists^ Review
Dbcimbu 9, 1920
large enough to bud the same year.
Since the seed is rather small, we have
come to the conclusion that it is far
better to plant the seed in narrow beds
the first year and plant the seedlings
out in nursery rows in the usual man-
ner the following spring. The seed
which has, been bedded, as a general
rule, commences to pip in February and
is then planted. In order that seedlings
may not grow too large, the seed is
sown broadcast in rows about eight
inches wide, leaving four feet between
the rows to permit cultivation and
irrigation. One point which must be
carefully observed is, do not plant the
seed too deep — otherwise it will not
sprout.
Use of Peach.
"It is hardly necessary for me to
dwell to any extent on the seedlings
which are grown from the peach, apri-
cot and almond, for all of this seed is
available in this country and no par-
ticular difficulty is encountered in grow-
ing seedlings.
"In the states east of the Eocky
mountains, Tennessee seedling peach
pits are used, because the seed runs
small and there is more to the bushel
than of the seed from budded trees.
Further than this, the seedling pits
grow a more vigorous and smoother
tree than the seedlings from budded
pits. One would infer that these seed-
ling pits would be freer from crown-
gaU than the budded seedlings. How-
ever, experience has demonstrated that
this is not always the case by any
means.
"In my opinion, one of the impor-
tant points in growing seedlings is
to be constantly on the lookout for
new ground. From my observations in
Europe I am inclined to think that
many of the troubles which are being
experienced with European seedlings are
due to the use of the same ground over
and over again, for no matter how much
fertilizer may be used, this procedure
invites fungous diseases which are detri-
mental to the stocks. I am practically
convinced that the success of the under-
taking of growing seedlings in the
United States is dependent on securing
fresh seed which has been properly
cared for. Imported seed frequently ar-
rives so late in the season that it is im-
practicable to plant it and it must be
carried over to the following year."

Greenhouse Heating
Subscribers are invited to write the
editor of this department with regard to
any details of greenhouse heating that
are not understood. When information
is desired regarding the capacity of boil-
ers, or the amount of radiation required
for a greenhouse, the needed temperatures
should be stated in the inquiry, as well
as the amount of glass in the side walls,
and the dimensions and general arrange-
ment of the greenhouses. It is often help-
ful, also, to have a sketch showing the
location of the houses.
PIPING DOWNHILL SYSTEM.
Please tell me how to pipe my green-
house for hot water heat. The crop will
be carnations and the temperature
needed will be 45 to 55 degrees. The
house is 21x31, six feet high to the eaves
and twelve feet to the ridge. The
foundations are concrete. The house
contains 1,200 square feet of glass. It
will require about 350 square feet of
radiation, will it notf There is a raised
bench in the center and a 3-foot bench
at each side wall. The house runs north
and south and the boiler room is at the
north end.
My understanding is that the highest
point of the flow may be either over the
boiler or at the opposite end. My in-
tention is to use two 2-inch flows, run-
ning one along each plate, or one 3-inch
flow under the ridge. Connected with
the flow, or flows, would be ten 2-inch
returns, five of them on each side wall,
under the benches. Could I attach
two 2-inch flows to a Wilks boiler,
24x48? I think this boiler has only one
outlet. P. R.— Mo.
For a Wilks boiler I should advise
using a 3-inch flow pipe, running it about
two feet below the ridge, with the liigh-
est point over the boiler. A slope of one
inch in ten feet will be ample. When
a boiler with two flow ports is used it
is best, for a house of the stated size
and width, to run a 2%-inch flow pipe
upon each plate or under the purlins.
While a radiation of 350 square feet is
not too large to be supplied by two 2-
ihch flow pipes, the number of returns
necessary will make it advisable to use
two 2%-inch flows, unless a single 3-
inch flow is used.
From the amount of glass stated, I
infer that there must be about thirty
inches of glass below the plates. If a
minimum temperature of 55 degrees is
necessary in the coldest weather, it will
be advisable to use 350 square feet of
radiation, but if there is no liarm if the
temperature drops to 50 degrees in the
nights when it drops below zero out-
side, 300 square feet of radiation will
answer.
Instead of running the returns along
the side walls only, it would be better
to drop down two 214-inch pipes from
the end of the 3-inch overhead flow
pipe, and with each of them feed a coil

The KROESCHELL has proven its worth in many of the large establishments in
this country. It has frequently been selected by the most careful buyers in
competition with all other types of boilers. Its efficiency and capacity are com-
pletely beyond any other boiler.
KROESCHELL BOILERS have no bulky, soot accumu-
lating surfaces— you avoid the disagreeable work and
trouble indispensable to cleaning boilers with compli-
cated and tortuous back and forth passages.
The superiority of our boilers has resulted in the removal and abolishment of
hundreds of cast iron sectional boilers— in every instance KROESCHELL BOILERS
give more heat with the same piping with less fuel.

TORONTO, ONT.
The Market.
During the last fortnight there has
been no sunshine, and both growers
and retailers have been worrying about
the Christmas stock. The sun has begun
to shine again and the hearts of the
florists are glad. The dull weather was
beginning to affect the color of the
flowers and pessimistic reports were
coming from the growers. However,
all that is changed and the present re-
ports show that there will be an abun-
dance of stock and the retailers can ar-
range for a big Christmas trade.
Various Notes.
As part of the scheme for the dispos-
ing of the Christmas stock, there vdll
be a general publicity campaign. Since
the larger florists will probably have no
difiiculty in disposing of all the stock,
the main idea is to assist the smaller
members of the club. The people have
the money and will spend it at Christ-
mas. The other trades are doing some
heavy advertising and the florists can-
not be behind in advocating gifts of
flowers at Christmas. Unless the people
are reminded, they are apt to forget and
buy something else.
The seed business of J. A. Simmers,
Ltd., has been sold to J. G. Purvis,
formerly manager of the William Bon-
nie seed business, and C. S. Morrow.

Mums still hold on, but the poor qual-
ity at present shows that the end is
near. The rose supply is in excess of the
demand, especially in the long grades.
The prices are good and the quality is
excellent. Ophelia, Dunlop, Hoosicr and
Columbia are the only varieties which
clean up at all, these bringing $10 to
$30 per hundred. Carnations are mov-
ing fairly well at $4 to $7 per hundred,
with the supply about equal to the de-
mand. The sweet pea supply is increas-
ing, but all that can be had move read-
ily. Pot plants are beginning to find
a good market. Cyclamens, begonias
and ferns are the big items at present.

The last few days of last week
brought a good increase in business.
However, conditions are far from satis-
factory for this time of the year. Busi-
ness was chiefly made up of funeral
work during the last few days. Al-
though the supply of stock was not
large, at no time during the entire
week did the demand come up to the
supply and there was practically no
clean-up in any line of seasonable stock.
All members of the trade are looking
forward to Christmas and orders have
already started to come in. This makes
the outlook for the future a little bet-
ter.

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

Character Greenhouse Materials
For nearly forty years this house has catered continuously
to the Florists' Trade of America.
Jealous care of its good name and of the quality of its con-
struction materials has made the trademark "DIETSCH" of
equal rank with "STERLING" as a mark by which established
worth may be recognized.
You might as well be protected by it, for Dietsch construc-
tion material costs no more than other good material.

Tlie Market.
Owing to the continuous dark weather
the last two weeks and mums being out
of the market, the supply of stock is
not equal to the demand. Sweet peas
were mostly affected by the dark
weather, many of the plants having
dropped their buds. There is, however,
some stevia coming in, and also Paper
Whites.
Various Notes.
There was a well attended meeting of
the Florists' Club Thursday, December
2. The election of ofl&cers was held and
the foUovdng were elected: President,
Fred Gutermuth; vice-president, Alfred
Locker; treasurer, James Livingstone;
secretary, Eugene Oestreicher. Carl
Menger was elected trustee for three
years. The new ofBcers are all young
and active men. Considerable is ex-
pected from them during the coming
year. The entertainment committee
has arranged for a theater party, which
will be given this month.
There was a meeting of the officers of
the Wisconsin State Florists' Associa-
tion at the Blatz hotel, and matters
pertaining to the next convention were
taken up. Those in attendance were:
President Eichard Haentze, of Fond du
Lac; F. H. Holton and John Rindfleisch,
of Beloit; James Taylor, of Oshkosh,
and George Vatter, of Marinette.
C. C. Pollworth has returned from his
annual hunting trip, bringing back with

meetings during the coming winter, at
which speakers of prominence are to dis-
cuss horticulture, floriculture and kin-
dred topics.

week for Los Angeles, Cal., where they
will make their future home. Mr. Mat-
son is going into the fruit growing busi-
ness. He has been in this country
twenty-eight years, twenty-two of which
he has been gardener for Mrs. William
Grosvenor.
James Clunes has resigned as gardener
for Arthur Curtis James to accept a
similar position on Mrs. William Gros-
venor's estate.

THIS IS THE
Josephine Foley
Chrysanthemum
Over 750 beautiful white mums, not small pompons but good big
blooms— all on one plant— from one stalk. As less than half of the
blooms can be seen in the picture, the beauty of this plant can only be
imagined.
Mr. Donald McNaughton, Superintendent, grew this remarkable
prize-winning plant in the Foley Greenhouse of E. S. Moore, of Lake
Forest, 111. This is the beautiful white mum, Elmer Smith's produc-
tion, which won the Foley Prize at the mum show a few years ago
and was named after Philip Foley's youngest daughter by Elmer Smith.
Foley Greenhouses
are so thoroughly well built — the Foley Heating System is so
ample — and so dependable, that growers can be sure of sat-
isfactory results from their efforts, no matter whether the
flowers be the delicate orchid or the hardy mum. It pays
to be sure your house is right and the simple way to
have it right is to have it Foley built and heated.

Mr. W. L, Ferguson. Smitlis Falls, Ontario, un-
der date of Dec. lid. 1919. writes us the following
in regard to our petunias:
"Last year I purchased Petunia seed from you.
I think every seed germinated and the blooms
were the finest ever seen in this part of Canada.
Only about 8 per cent of the plants could be
classed as common. 1 want more of tlie same
quality each year."
Mr. Rudolf Nngel, Lancaster, Pa., under date
of Dec. 14th. 1919, writes us:
"I had last year just a few of your petunias,
but I am sure I could have sold thousands of
them. They surely came up to your claim and
way ahead of my expectation."

more you pay. The ingredients are of the purest;
weighs but 10 pounds to the gallon.
With the scarcity of coal and its high prices, the
careful application of Asbestfalt will more than pay
for itself by keeping your greenhouse air-tight.

J\lt\^ GREENHOUSES
A decorative greenhouse is a practical necessity to the country estate. Many city
dwellers who have spacious grounds enjoy a small, attractive greenhouse as well.
The illustration is a good example.
Up-to-date florists very frequently take advantage of these attractive designs for
show rooms in the rear of their stores. Those who have them say they never
made a better investment.
This is just a reminder to you that we can build you anything you want— a flower
factory or a sales factory.

Figure it out
for yourself—
and you'll find that
— time waits for no man!
Next year you will be older than you are now. You
will have one year less in wliieh to accomplish the
things you started out to accomplish. If there were
things that appeared to you to serve as good excuses
for not making a move to bring nearer those things
you started out to do — for not doing something to
realize your ambitions — you may as well face the
cold, incontrovertible fact that there never will-
come a year or any ])art of a year when something
will not appear that may serve as an excuse for
marking time and waiting. But burn this into your
memory!
Time never marks time in that way — it never waits.
It moves on inexorably and checks otf the days al-
lotted to you to make good in your chosen occupation.
Soyou can readily see, if you were one of those who let
war conditions serve as an excuse for standing still,
and who then let reconstruction conditions and high
prices serve as another excuse and who stand, even
now, with both ears o|»en to catch the faintest pessi-
mistic murmur that may serve as yet another excuse,
you will be rudely awakened some day, to a realization
of the fact that you are no longer a young man — tliitt
you are no longer a middle-aged man — that for you
the prime of life has passed — that those years of your
life that should have been spent in building up a
business of sufficient size to take care of your declin-
ing years have been spent in marking time — in wait-
ing for conditions in which every element, every
factor is in your favor. In other words, in wait-
ing for something that never has existed and never
can exist.
Conditions right now are as favorable for the build-
ing of greenhouses as they are likely to be for a
])eriod of time that will place you and other present-
day florists on the retired list. We do not mean by
this that times are never going to be good. We mean
by this that times right now are relatively good —
that most of the unfavorable conditions originated in
the fevered imagination of people who are always
looking for ghosts — the kind who will prophesy a
heavy storm on the brightest and most perfect .Tune
day.
So let us all determine this very hour to make the
most we can of the time at our disposal — to make
every effort to achieve the success we want — to show
the stuff of which we are made.
We lia\e done our part by reducing the [iricc of greeiiliouse materials approximately
%
You can do your part by taking advantage of this reduction.
Of course, the sooner we get together — the better.
When will it be?

Since li)10 we have been building greenhouses for the Bohemian
National Cemetery. Nearly every year we have had a contract to
build one kind of greenhouse or another, ranging from large curved
eave palm houses through all steel and pipe frame commercial houses.
We are just completing the range of glass shown above.
At the left a corner of the new steel and brick boiler room is shown.
This we have just completed and installed therein a battery of steam
power boilers which fui'nish the steam for the Moninger vacuum heat-
ing just put in by us.
First-class design, good durable materials, reasonable prices and
prompt and etlicieiit seivice are the things which enable us to secure
contracts time and again, year after year.
Why not get started with us now? Prices are down.

X.xt 111 ii\ir Sootioiial Iron I'-iaino honso, 1h<ro is
iKi li.tli-r house made than onr Semi-iron.
Some cMii ;;o so I'ai' as to say tlierc is none as good
inailiv
Hill i.n<' ihiiiK suit. It is as strung and enduring
as a lioiise can he made, witltout iron rafters, and
still iie sullieiently lifilit to meet present-day r.-
quiri ini'nis.
It's a fait lliat tlie sides, tip to and incl\i<linK \lu-
eave plate, are tin- same Kiinral eonstniel inn as
the Iron Kranie Iiouse.
Von really get the same guaraiit.ed wrought iron
posts, ;ind the same angle iron eaye; also th<- same
loof l):ir clasps.
'J'he eyiir.ss woodwork is, of eonrse, in eyery case
every bit as good.
The sash themselves ;ne absolutely tlii' same.
If \ ou are one of the ones who feel that our .S.-mi-
iron house costs more than other houses of similar
lonslruclion, you are one of the ones who are dead
wrong. What we want to do with you is to get
right down to rook-bottom facts and figures.
After \ou li,\ve carefully studied our house in the
Handy Hand Book, and compared it with other con-
structions and their costs, and have had a good talk
with us. then yoti will be in a ])osition to come to
definite, piactical conclusions.
.\ii iii.iilir whether you buy only the materials you
think you want, or those we think you should have.
Ill either case tliere is not a builder in the field to-
day who can undersell us, unless, of course, it's a
lasi- of making you a present.
W'f iliinl make any presents, but Iheie's no one
w ill make \i>\\ a better house.
Let's ha\e a Kood. (dd-fashioned talk together about
I his i)rice question.
Let's go at it slowly, with plenty of time to prove
tilings up step by step.
Will you do that?

The Florists^ Review
CHRISTMAS FLOWERS
Our prices for this Christmas average the same as a year ago,
despite the big advance in the cost of growing, such as coal, labor, etc.
Nearly all of our growth of flowers are sold on regular orders
that go the season through. We therefore feel that it is only fair to
our customers that for the holidays we will assume this extra cost of
growing ourselves.
Buy Direct From the Grower
You always get fresh flowers and a more even run of stock. Our
Russell and Columbia
are the finest in this market.

$80.00 $100.00 $120.00 $150.00
FREE, WASHINGTON, D. C. HUNDRED AT THOUSAND PRICE
First-class Certificate Haarlem, August 4, 1919. Its color is a shade brighter
than America, flowers twice as large as America and its habit of growth is
like America. It is as early as Halley and multiplies as Halley. In a few
years Lc Marechal Foch will be growing all over the U. S. A., and when
you are talking about Gladioli you will talk about Le Marechal Foch, be-
cause it is the best fine pink color, very early, has extra shipping qualities,
and every first size bulb gives three and four strong flower spikes direct
out of the bulb.
Never a Gladiolus has been introduced with such great trade possibilities.
Nnfioa vA Imn/u4 Last year we had several shipments for customers in the
nonce re impon u. S. a. A11 have been inspected by the F. H. B. in Wash-
ington and no pests at all have been found, so all customers have received the goods
in (food condition. As the inspection by the F. H. B. is very exact, you have to be
sure that you get absolutely sound stuff. We therefore beg to inform you that you
cannot order Gladioli everywhere, because the inspection has to be done also on our
side very carefully, and although our cultures are absolutely pest free, we hand- select
all our bulbs before shipping. If you give us your order you can be sure that you will
have no trouble at all, as we know all about inspection, packing and shipping. Bulbs
for propacating are duty free. We are the largest stockholders of this variety and
guarantee true stock. Stock is very limited.
Vnr Imnnrf I i<<Am«A address the Federal Horticultural Board in Washington,
rur impon L.lCense p. c., which gives it freely for this splendid variety. We
allow 7% discount for cash with order, otherwise three months' credit with good
references. Send your name for our list of fancy varieties.

Patrick O'Mara Dahlia, Creatlj Rmduced in Size
Your Opportunity for Profit
Depends on Your Promptness
The flowers are 8 inches or more in diameter and borne on long, strong, erect stems.
They are firmly set at right angles close to the stems. The color is an unusually soft and
pleasing shade of orange-buflf, slightly tinged with Neyron rose.
It is the best shipping and longest keeping Dahlia. None better for commercial use
or more pleasing for ornamental gardens.
Prof. Geo. W. Fraser, Connecticut Agricultural College, in charge of the Dahlia Trial
Grounds, says: "Its growing, keeping and shipping qualities are excellent. Growers will
find its habit, color, etc., something that has been greatly needed."
Orders booked now and plants shipped next Spring in the rotation in which

The most discriminating buyers ,are inspecting, buy-
ing our stock and giving us repeat orders.
(We have the varieties and the quality.)
. NO PACKING CHARGE.
What our customers say about our quality and packing:
From North Carolina:
"It is with great pleasure and satisfaction to report to you that the shipment of cyclamen reached me in first-
class condition, I give you full credit for the way you packed the shipment. That's the way to pack plants,
and not just slap them in like so many shippers are doing nowadays. Everyone seems to be mighty anxious to
sell goods and get the money, but don't give a rap how goods reach the buyer. Enclosed find check for
additional order." j—
From Arizona:
"Duplicate our order of the 24th; did not think shipment could be made this far."
"Received 400 cyclamen from the east and they can't touch youra. "
"Cyclamen arrived; well pleased with quality and they were packed fine."
"Enclosed find check for $3(50.00; eyes arrived in fine shape and we are well pleased with the stock."
Not the cheapest that are offered, because quality stock cannot be
had cheap. Nor the highest prices, because we have a large quan-
tity and can afEord to share profits with you; just the best that
can be had for the money.

CHECKING COSTLY
CHIMNEY LOSSES
Since the greenhouse owner must pay more money for the things he
needs most, he can only keep down his costs hy using less. To do this he
must become acquainted with the possible ways of reducing waste, one of
the most important of which is pointed out in this article.
HE subject of fuel economy
is today of greater interest
to florists than ever be-
fore. There are two rea-
sons: First, fuel costs
two or three times as
much as it did a few
years ago, and second, in
many instances during the
last few years it has been
difficult to get at any price. The first
reason is one that will remain. Prices
of fuel, no matter what kind, will un-
doubtedly stay high, compared with
prices before the war. The second
reason should, however, vanish entirely
when once labor and transportation
facilities are properly controlled.
The high cost of fuel, therefore, pro-
vides the principal incentive to save it,
and the greater the cost the greater will
be that incentive. The two principal
factors which enter into the cost of fuel
are labor and transportation. Its price
to the consumer will be governed by
these two charges, plus whatever addi-
tional charge competition will permit
the mining interests to add.
Up the Stack.
No matter how fuel is consumed and
no matter what kind of fuel is burned,
whether solid, powdered, liquid or gase-
ous, the biggest loss is always due to
the heat energy
wasted up the chim-
ney. In this connec-
tion it might be well
to quote the follow-
ing conservative
statement from bulle-
tin No. 205, issued
by the bureau of
mines:
"In the average
boiler plant, thirty-
five per cent of the
heat in the coal
burned under the
boilers is lost with
the stack gases. That
is, out of every 100
tons of coal burned
under the boilers, the
heat of thirty-five
tons literally goes up
the stack. It is this
loss that can be
greatly reduced, and
every effort should
be made to do so. ' '

ways the largest in-
dividual loss in any
heating plant, de-

tude on three factors. These are, in or-
der of importance: First, excess air in
the products of combustion; second, tem-
perature of the products of combustion;
third, amount of unconsumed fuel in
the i^roducts of combustion.
Air Consumed.
The excess air in the products of
combustion results in loss greater than
that from any other source. Every kind
of fuel requires a definite amount of air
to burn it, the exact quantity depending
principally upon the ratio of its carbon
and hydrogen. When considering coal,
for example, the principal constituent is
carbon, every pound of which requires
twelve pounds of air to completely con-
sume or oxidize it. All air that is used
above this amount is known as excess
air, and when supplied in greater quan-
tities than is necessary to meet the
particular conditions of the furnace in
which the fuel is burned an unnecessary
burden is immediately placed on the
temperature possibilities of the furnace
and the amount of fuel consumed to ac-
complish a desired result increased in
proportion.
Even in fairly good practice about
Waste Costs High When Boilers Burn Fifty Tons of Coal a Day
twenty-five tons of air is used to burn
one ton of coal, and in the more poorly
operated plants this amount is often
doubled. Twenty-five tons represent a
lot of air. Under normal conditions, it
occupies a space nearly 16,000 times
as large as the coal which it consumes.
If this amount of air were contained in
a pipe with one square foot cross sec-
tional area, it would have to be long
enough to extend nearly from New York
to Baltimore. Stated in another way, if
the floor of a room were covered with
coal to a depth of one foot, the ceiling
would have to be three miles high in
order for the room to contain as much
air as is generally used to burn that
amount of fuel. The fact that so much
air is consumed in burning one ton of
coal is not realized by the fireman and
the important relation which this huge
mass bears to fuel economy is generally
not given sufficient thought by his su-
])eriors. Although air costs nothing and
is available in unlimited quantities,
when used to burn fuel in excess of what
is re(|uir('d, as is the case in the average
lieating jjlant, it becomes one of the
most expensive raw materials.
Determining Waste.
All the air that is used in burning coal,
whether under steam boilers or for any
other process, ai)i)ears in the products
of combustion. If
three times as much
iiir is used as is neces-
sary there will b»' just
about three times as
m u c h products of
combustion as neces-
sary. This gas as it
passes up the chim-
ney contains the
major portion of the
heat that is unneces-
sarily wasted. Every
degree of temjiera-
ture to which each
])()und of this gas is
licated above the
temperature of the
atmosphere means
iibout 0.2.J heat units
that go to waste. The
exact amount of heat
wjisfed in this wav
can be determined by
tlie weight of the
jiroducts of combus-
tion i)er jtound of fuel
burned, and the tem-
])erature at which
tlicy leave the furnace
or enter tlio stack.

coal consumed, from one-third to one-
half of the heat it contains is stolen by
the products of combustion and dissi-
pated into the atmosphere.
The other loss up the chimney, namely
that due to unconsumed fuel in the
products of combustion, is usually not
so serious. The old idea that a smoky
stack is a sign of tremendous waste is
not always true; in fact, whether the
gases leaving a chimney are smoky or
smokeless is no indication at all as to
the efficiency with which the fuel is
consumed. . Steam boilers, for example,
connected with a stack that does not
show the slightest trace of smoke may
burn twice as much coal pfer pound of
water evaporated as when smoke is in
great prominence. Black smoke is, of
course, unburned carbon, but the amount
of carbon in this light and finely divided
form that is necessary to give the
products of combustion a dark or even
a black appearance is generally only a
small fraction of one per cent of the
actual fuel burned. The additional un-
consumed fuel that is apt to be present
in the products of combustion is carbon
monoxide and hydrocarbons, both of
which are caused by an insufficient air
supply or the improper mixture of the
air with the fuel before it is ignited.
Although it is possible for the loss due
this way be determined at once, and the
best efficiency under the working con-
ditions of any plant can generally be
obtained and maintained without the
necessity of lengthy and elaborate tests.
/
Ideal Combustion.
With ideal combustion the rate of
burning and consequently the amount of
heat energy developed in a unit of time
would- be in proportion to the amount
of air supplied. Unfortunately, how-
ever, conditions under which fuel is
burned are far from ideal. In everyday
practice air is supplied to the fuel in
such excessive quantities that only from
one-third to one-half of it combines
with the combustible to liberate the
heat which it contains. In ninety-nine
cases out of a hundred, this condition
is simply due to a lack of facilities for
knowing whether the proper amount of
air is supplied per pound of fuel con-
sumed. When carbon, the principal
constituent of any fuel, is completely
burned the result is COj. Complete
combustion occurs when air is supplied
in excess of what is needed. When,
however, the air supply is reduced or
regulated to approach that which is
theoretically required there is also a
possibility of incomplete combustion,
due to an insufficient amount of air
lo^t^a Florists Gain Bigger Share in Mid-West Horticultural Exposition.
to this cause to bo serious, it is a fact
that the avorajie loss from this source
can safely be estimated as less than
two per cent.
Reducing Losses.
To reduce chinmev losses to a mini-
mum, no matter what means is used,
we must know whether or not the
proper amount of air is being supplied,
whether or not air has been jiroperly
mixed with the fuel before it was
ignited and whether or not too much
heat is left in the products of combus-
tion as they pass up the chimney. Un-
der all conditions these important facts
can be determined with the consistent
use of fuel gas analyses and tempera-
ture measurements. The effect of any
change in fuel or method of firing, the
results of any additions or changes, or
the value of any new appliance, can in
reaching part of the combustible. When
this is the case some of the carbon in
the fuel will burn to CO instead of CO^.
It must be remembered, however, that
the big loss in practice is due to excess
air and not to an insufficient supply.
FLOWERS TO THE FORE.
That Iowa florists are awake to trade
possibilities is evidenced by the rapid
strides with which they pushed flowers
into prominence at the annual Mid-West
Horticultural Exposition, held at Coun-
cil Bluffs, la., November 15 to 20. Up
to this year the exposition was almost
exclusively agricultural. A careful
study of the illustration on this page
will reveal the fact that it is no longer
exclusively agricultural; on the other
hand, it would appear that, before
long, flowers might be one of the pre-
dominant features of the exhibition.
Blaine C. Wilcox, of J. I". Wilcox &
Sons, Council Bluffs, la., recently
elected president of the Society of Iowa
Florists, was in charge of the floricu>
ture department of the exposition, and
it was largely due to his activity that ^
such excellent results were obtained.
Among the exhibitors of flowers at the
exposition were: Pinehurst Floral Co.,
Pleasant Hill, Mo.; Kirkwood Floral
Co., Des Moines, la.; Iowa State College,
Ames, la.; F. L. Lainson, Council
Bluffs, la.; J. S. Wilson, Des Moines;
Oscar H. Herman, Council Bluffs, and
L. Stapp Co., Bock Island, 111. Many of
the extensive floral decorations on the
walls and ends of the exposition hall
were arranged by Vern Wilcox, of J.
F. Wilcox & Sons. These were not in
competition.
MOTT-LY MUSINGS.
"My sentiments exactly," observed
Samuel R. Hansen, of North Troy, N. Y.,
following a perusal of the program is-
sued by the Chicago Florists' Club for
its meeting December 9. "It's the best
thing of its kind yet issued, unique in
its arrangements, up-to-the-minute and
worthy of its composers. It will be my
endeavor to carry out something similar
during my term as president of the Al-
bany Florists ' Club, realizing the amount
of latent talent we possess, which only
needs uncovering to discover its wealth.
It has taken our western confrere to ex-
press what is in the minds of all who
have graduated in our profession and,
as we are becoming more and more
practical and the sentimental becomes
merged in the commercial, the impor-
'tance of having one's attention called
to the value of our profession as a
science cannot be overestimated. An-
other point to make," continued Mr.
Hansen, "is the ever burning question
of what constitutes a living price for
our product. As the matter now stands,
we are far removed from practicing the
Golden Rule, and not until we do this,
mark me, will the business be conducted
along satisfactory lines. The subject
of supply and demand overrules all and,
as the bulk of the stock handled is
perishable, absolutely no set rules or
laws touching prices can be satisfactor-
ily followed. Granted that a schedule
of prices makes interesting reading,
one's business is governed by its en-
vironment and, while we may do much
toward educating public taste for our
product, it remains for the individual
to carry out in his limited sphere what
the big brothers are trying to accom-
plish as a body."
It was incidentally mentioned at the
time of this interview, just after
Thanksgiving, that prices at wholesale
had not receded. The outlook for
Christmas business was propitious for
plant sales. W. M.
Sedalia, Mo. — L. n. Archias, presi-
dent of the Archias Floral Co., has been
appointed a delegate to the Interna-
tional Farm Congress, which will be
held at Kansas City, Mo., December 9
to 11. The appointment was made by
Governor F. D. Gardner.
Lincoln, Neb.— C. H. Frey makes the
interesting report that practically all
his Christmas plants for wholesaling
were ordered up a fortnight before the
holiday. Orders were not so large as
last year, but were much more numer-
ous. Weather for shipping never was so
good.

mAmuiiiumaiLUii^^
GROWING OUR OWN s^
ODAY we all seem to be
T confronted with dozens or
more of serious and per-
plexing problems regard-
ing our business today and
tomorrow. Even with all
these conditions the nurs-
ery and florists' trade of
California is really in its
infancy. We are operat-
ing in a new era. Economical and finan-
cial conditions are -different. Ethical
business principles are different. Social
and political conditions are changed.
What are going to be the results for you
and mef
Many business men now have the well
fed feeling that comes from a four
years' banquet of big profits and can-
not yet realize that lean times can ever
return. This not necessarily has been
the situation in the nursery and florists '
business, for our trade seems to have
been slower than all others to increase
its prices in proportion to costs of pro-
duction. There no doubt were many
reasons for this, but it was mostly due
to the lack of close cooperation and or-
ganization obtaining in other trades.
It is not my intention to forecast a
price movement, but I believe most ob-
servers will agree that the high point in
commodity prices has been reached,
and that from now on we may expect a
general downward tendency for several
years. Likely this will not be entirely
true in the prices of florists' and nurs-
ery stock and a few other commodities,
but most, I feel certain, will decline.
New Capital.
There is plenty of money in the
country for the purpose of business
operation, but not enough to care for
the present and immediate future needs
of business. Almost universally, the
merchant wants to expand and the
banker wants to contract. Sooner or
later the business man must accept the
banker's view. Capital therefore be-
ing denied, industries question how pro-
duction can be increased without avail-
■able funds. The answer is that new
capital only comes from one source, and
that is savings. Wealth is created only
out of savings. Do you realize that the
leading capitalist of today is the man
who earns a daily wage? When we con-
sider that the wage earner is receiving
approximately seventy per cent of the
total income of the country, it becomes
obvious that the wage earner is the in-
dividual who must become thrifty in
order that the country may progress.
With our extravagant tendencies at
The address of Roy F. Wilcox, of Montebello,
Cal., on "Growing Ornamentals Formerly Im-
ported," delivered November 12, at the tenth
annual convention of the California Association
of Nurserymen, at Fresno, at which he was
elected president for the ensuing year.
present, the country is not saving a
proper proportion of its income. There-
fore the problem of increasing actual
capital and reduction of inflation seems
to be the foremost of our problems, and
the increase will only come when the in-
dividuals who receive seventy per cent
of the nation's total income spend wisely
and save. The situation will also begin
to improve when business men take it
upon themselves as individuals or
groups to see that their communities
and trades enter more seriously into pro-
duction and that the practice of good,
old-fashioned thrift comes again into
general use. Profits are bound to come
with prosperity, if the country can be
induced to work and save.
Opportunities in Home-Building.
It is not the short-sighted but the far-
sighted merchant and banker who are
starting the movement of decline. We
had best admit this and be thankful
that because there is much building to
be done, the liquidation is to be gradual
and not panicky. The present tendency
in lumber is for prices to go down, but
if the building demand continues, many
prices may yet advance. The nursery
trade will likely follow the home-build-
ing development, which will no doubt
mean a new awakening and a great op-
portunity if properly considered and
handled by the trade.
However, with this prospective trade
development and a possible general
business decline, we must carefully
guard our interests and be alert at all
times. Eemember the elementary laws
of business and avoid small wastes,
closely guard your costs of production
and carefully plan your market. The
"take it or leave it" attitude will no
longer do as a sales policy.
How many have a cost of production
system? I dare say extremely few. How
many of us simply work and do not use
our pencil enough, and then wonder
why our profits arc sometimes small!
Accurate costs are the best guides in
times of narrow profits, but it seems al-
most impossible to get accurate costs
in our trade. This would seem a
worthy subject for investigation, for
the benefit of all.
American-Grown Stock.
Truthfully, I am unable to understand
the methods and plans of many nursery-
men. Many buy most of their stock
from nurseries other than American
nurseries, and many have exceedingly
poor credit principles. Many of the
places are crammed full of junk and un-
salable stock, which has likely been in
the same place for years. Why not sell
this stock for at least some small amount
and get something new growing in its
place, or otherwise dump it?
Possibly you wonder what bearing all
of these statements have on the sub-
ject, "Can we grow ornamentals form-
erly imported. ' ' They are indeed linked
with every phase of it and the problem
really before us is, "Is California ca-
pable of producing the classes of orna-
mentals formerly imported and are the
men of this state going to grasp the
great opportunity presented as a result
of the embargo?"
Some of our eastern friends hate to
concede that stock formerly imported
can be satisfactorily grown in this
country and particularly in California.
Most certainly this class of stock can
be grown here, and our variations of
climate and growing conditions open
great prospects for the men of our trade.
California is the most logical place in
the country. Specialize on one or two
items, prepare for the eastern demands
and take advantage of the most wonder-
ful opportunity and conditions. Few of
you realize the great possibilities and
wants of the eastern florists and grow-
ers. They are anxious for good, salable
plants.
Palms in California.
Of these importations, California can
grow almost any of them. My business
at Montebello is devoted mostly to the
growing of several hundred thousand
kentias, boxwood, heather for cut
flowers and a few other ornamentals for
local or eastern trade. Shipments are
made in carload lots as far east as New
York and throughout the central west
and south.
Bassett & Washburn, at Sierra Madre,
specialize entirely on the growing of
kontia palms, and have a fine modem
place. At their place and our place
there are about 800,000 growing now.
Constant building is being done to plan
for a jomplete rotation and prepare for
a large industry. This means a large
investment and also waiting about six
years before first returns are received.
These palms are grown from imported
seed, wliich takes from six months to
one year to germinate. They are grown
a year in the greenhouse after germina-
tion. Then they are planted in the

The Florists' Review
December 16, 1920
ground in a double-shaded lath house.
After lifting, the palms are grown in
pots one year before shipping. Every
conceivable condition is carefully
watched and studied for improvement.
The careful establishing of every plant
before shipping is extremely important
for you and for me. The minimum size
sold for shipment now is usually thirty- ^
six inches hig^. The smaller palms can
be grown in the east just as cheaply as
liere.
Quality Essential.
One eastern palm grower^ openly ad-
vertised in an eastern trade paper a few
months ago regarding palms and said,
* * None of those flimsy-rooted California
palms." To me tliis seems like small
town talk and advertising of poor prin-
ciple, but nevertheless such condition
of stock has been true in the past
among the trade, but I am proud to say
this will not be the condition of plants
from my place and a few other reputable
growers I know.
Some growers have been too eager to
sell their stock and well knew that the
plants were not sufficiently established
to give good satisfaction. Eemember
that kind of service is not upbuilding
the California trade and that the east-
ern florists and growers well know good
stock and cannot be easily fooled. This
hurts your future business standing as
well as mine, for the eastern trade speaks
in general terms and says that Califor-
nia stock is flimsy-rooted or inferior
to the stock formerly received from Bel-
gium, France, England or other coun-
tries. We can prove that the best qual-
ity can be grown here in California, al-
though every man must study and learn
his own conditions. To me it seems
most important that every firm be es-
pecially careful as to the class of stock-
shipped east and the method of han-
dling it. If California is to become the
home of stock formerly imported, we
have a big obligation and duty to per-
form.
Experiments in Azaleas.
There are many different ornamental
plants already successfully grown in a
specialized way. In addition to the
kentia palms previously mentioned, the
Cottage Gardens Nurseries are likely
pioneers in the commercial growing of
azaleas, araucarias, tuberous-rooted
begonias and other such stock formerly
imjjortod from Belgium.
At first azaleas were tried outdoors
and in lath houses at Eureka, but the
winters were too severe and damaged
the foliage. Then, too, the late frosts
damaged the young growth in the
spring. Now this stock is wintered in
greenhouses and planted out for summer
growth, which is the Belgian method.
A few of the plants of the experi-
mental stage were ship](e(l east, which
accounts for the eastern idea that
azaleas cannot be grown successfully in
California. The production now is as
good as the iinjKirted stock, but I under-
stand that the sale has been restricted
entirely to the Pacific coast, as the de
mand at i)resent is far greater than the
supjily. There is absolutely no ques-
tion whatever about the successful
propagation of rhododendrons of the
finest type. There are millions growing
in the northern jtart of the state. Box-
wood, of course, is one of California 's
staples and is grown in large (piantities,
])articularly along the coast.
Roses and Ericas.
Rose bushes for pot forcing are es-
pecially in demand. Thousands are
shipped every year and still there is a
shortage. The purpose of this stock is
for the florist to get it nicely in bloom
for Easter, which is long before outdoor
shrubbery in the east starts its spring
growth. However, there is one impor-
tant fact to remember; namely, that if
you expect to satisfy the eastern florist,
the roses must be budded low and the
plants bushy.
Ericas of many different varieties are
grown about San Francisco, Eureka and
Los Angeles in large quantities. Some
of this stock is raised for eastern pot
plants. Most of our stock at Montebello
is grown for cut flowers. Again I want
to emphasize the great necessity of
properly establishing plants before ship-
ping. Some growers have the idea that
the stock will stand rough treatment,
but bad results will certainly follow this
attitude.
Ericas are of great value to the
florists ' trade in the east as well as the
nursery trade here. A number of grow-
ers are shipping them to eastern florists
for greenhouse forcing. There is a great
demand for substantial and new bloom-
ing pot plants.
Other Items.
When Quarantine 37 was put into
effect many men declared that orchids
would soon be a thing of the past in
this country, but these, too, are quite
successfully and scientifically being
raised by San Francisco and other grow-
ers throughout the country.
Bulbs have been grown in this coun-
try quite extensively during the last
few years. The Santa Cruz district;
produces millions of fi-eesia bulbs, and-
many other varieties are grown in the
north. Michigan is making good prog-
ress in producing bulbs formerly im-
ported.
The flower and vegetable seed busi-
ness also finds a home in California.
The drier climate of the southern part
of the state is especially favorable for
seed development and harvesting. These
seeds are sent all over the world. This
industry is really not given due praise
and recognition as to its magnitude and
possibilities.
There are dozens of important varie-
ties of plants that are worthy of special
mention, but the main facts before us
ar^: First, that Quarantine 37 prohibits
thi importation of all nursery stock and
florists' products and in all probability
will remain in full force for many years
to come, and second, that the state of
California is especially suited to grow
every article formerly imported.
Before the war, every trade accepted
the idea that certain articles had to
come from Germany, Belgium, Holland,
France, England and Japan, but later,
when we were forced to use our own
science and resources, you all kilow the
result. America was capable of being
self-supporting and made many won-
derful advances. A similar condition is
produced by the present plant embargo,
and why should not the florists and
nurserymen of this country establish
and encourage home industry?

PINK PART HAS A BIRTHDAY.
Three Years Old This Week.
This week the Pink Part of IThe Re-
view celebrates its third birthday. The
retailers' department appeared for the
first time on rosy-tinted ])aper Decem-
ber 20, 1917. At that time it was six-
teen ])ages in size and included 310 flo-
rists. This week it fills forty pages and
contains the advertisements of 689 flo-
rists. Th.'it represents an increase in
size of 1.50 per cent and an increase in
the number of retailers represented of
122 ])er cent. Considerably more than
twice as many florists now present their
facilities for filling telegraph orders to
the trad(> through these ])ages as did
three years ago. That growth is con-
tinuous is indicated by the fact that
there are fourteen new florists repre-
sented this week.
In the Beginning.
Of course, the telegra])h delivery de-
partment was an im])ortant feature of
The Review before it ap])eared on rose-
colored pajier. Though the Pink Part
is 3 yi'ars old, the retailers' depart-
ment was started many years ago. It
was inaugurated in The Review of De-
cember 2.'), 1902, long before the organi-
zation of the F. T. D. was even con-
ceived. That beginning eighteen years
ago was small. Six florists were rej)re-
sented. Three of them are still in the
Pink Part, W. J. Smyth, Chicago; John
Breitmeyer 's Sons, Detroit, and the
William Scott Co., Buffalo. The other
three are no longer in business. The
second week the number had doubled
and at the end of the year there were
thirty florists in the department. Since
then the growth has been steady and
continuous.
Expectations Fulfilled.
Sturdy as was the development be-
fore, it has been far more rapid since
the adoption of rose-colored paper for
this department. The expectations in
making the change were expressed in
the first appearance of the Pink Part
as follows:
It is pprffctly plain tliiit the rose-colored sec-
tion will he so eiis.v to consult tliiit it will be the
Kuide' ^ery Horist will iikc in selecting the re-
tailer tti whom lie will scnil his order — no mat-
ter how many other lists a man may have among
the papers on his desk, he will reach for the one
that is tlie first to catch liis eve — the one he
knows always is there, at his linnd — the one that
he knows is revised weekly every florist with an
order to ko out will consnlt the rose-colored
section.
How fully those expectations have
been fulfilled are shown not only by
the growth of this department, but also
by the receij)t of such letters as the fol-
lowing from those who make use of the
Pink Part:
Do the advertisements in the Telegraph De-
livery Department of The Keview pay and are
tliey read? We say they do and they are! And
we hope to see the time when that department
will be a <oniplete directory of retail florists. —

AmericaJi Carnation Society.
A. F. J. Baur, of Indianapolis, secre-
tary of the American Carnation Society,
spoke on behalf of the coming conven-
tion and exhibition, January 25 and 26,
at Washington, D. C. Secretary Baur
expressed a desire to see Chicago carna-
tion growers take a greater interest in
the national organization and called
upon local growers to support the car-
nation society. He pointed out that the
New England growers are doing won-
derful work to promote the carnation.
There will be many new varieties shown
at the coming convention, he said.
Paul Klingsporn, C. C. Pollworth and
A. T. Pyf er spoke in behalf of the west-
ern grower of carnations and pledged
support at the coming exhibition.
Michael Barker, chairman of the
transportation committee, submitted a
report covering transportation in con-
nection with the carnation convention
and it was decided that the Chicago
Florists' Club and friends select the
Pennsylvania railroad for the trip to
Washington. It was decided to use the
fast Pennsylvania train leaving Chicago
10:30 a. m. and arriving at Washington
9:28 a. m. the following morning. This
is a regular fare train, on which rates
are as follows: Railroad fare $30.97;
sleeping car, lower berth $8.91, upper
$7.13, compartment $25.11, drawing
room $32.40. The transportation com-
mittee will issue an announcement cov-
ering all details.
Carnation Ball.
After considerable discussion, it was
unanimously decided to hold a dancing
party and carnation ball about two
weeks after the installation of officers,
in January, 1921. This matter was
placed in the hands of the committee
which managed the "Say It with
Flowers" dance, held recently.
President Waters called upon the
members to give a hearty vote of thanks
to the exhibitors, and it was unani-
mously decreed that this was one of the
handsomest and most interesting flower
shows held by the club during the pres-
ent year.
Upon motion of Paul Klingsporn, it
was decided that the exhibit of cut
flowers be turned over to the hospital
and Secretary Lautenschlager and Mr.
Klingsporn were appointed a committee
to deliver the flowers immediately upon
the close of the meeting.
NEW YORK CLUB EUBCTS.
Hendrickson Next Head.
A regular meeting of the New York
Florists' Club was held in the club's
rooms, in the Engineering Societies'
building, Monday evening, December 13,
Isaac S. Hendrickson.
(Newly Elected President of the New York Florists' Olnb.)
with an attendance of over 200. Presi-
dent A. M. Henshaw presided.
It was election night, and balloting oc-
cupied considerable time, although,
owing to declinations, competition was
narrowed down to the contest for trus-
teeships. The election resulted as fol-
lows: President, Isaac S. Hendrickson;
vice-president, Roman J. Irwin; secre-
tary, John Young, reelected; treasurer,
Wm. C. Rickards, Jr., reelected; trustees,
to serve three years, Joseph A. Manda,
Percy B. Rigby, reelected, and Anton
Schultheis.
The following were elected to mem-
bership in the club:
Chas. Forman, 35 West Bigbteenth street.
John Nicholas, 501 West One Hundred and
Forty-fifth street.
Patrick Morelli, 130 First avenue.
Max Myer, 841 West Flfty-flrst street.
Jancttet Splro, 784 Lexington ayenue.
W. H. Rogers, 153 South Blllott place,
Brooklyn.
Demetrios Haliklas, 46 Myrtle avenue,
Brooklyn.
Herman Dreyer, Tenafly, N. J.
The following were nominated for elec-
tion to membership at the next meeting:
Arthur Ponlas, Yonkers.
Hyman Spitz, 1677 Pitkin avenue, Brooklyn.
Otto C. Kraft, Bergenfleld, N. J.
Bruno Ehrinan, Secaucus, N. J.
John H. Rodman, Brooklyn.
Jack Bracker, East Williston, N. Y.
Philip Decker, Orange, N. J.
George Sullivan, 112 West Twenty-eighth
street.
William SuUivan, 112 West Twenty-eighth
street.
Secretary Young, for the committee
appointed to prepare memorial resolu-
tions on the death of Past-president
William Plumb, read resolutions, which
were, on motion, adopted.
In response to the wish of President-
elect Roland, of the S. A. F., that the
club nominate the next state vice-presi-
dent of the society for eastern New
York, it was unanimously voted that
Max Schling be the appointee.
Committees.
Clifford Lowther was appointed chair-
man of a transportation committee, with
power to appoint associates, to make
travel arrangements for all intending
to attend the convention of the Amer-
ican Carnation Society, at Washington,
D. C, January 26 and 27. During the
convention period it is understood that
there will be a meeting of the American
Flower Growers' Association, and it is
possible that the annual meeting of the
executive board of the S. A. F. will also
be held at that time.
Peter Gerlaird, chairman of the
house and entertainment committee, an-
nounced that the night of the regular
meeting, January 10, would be ladies'
night.
C. H. Totty, for the flower show com-
mittee, reported progress. There had
been a meeting of the committee that
afternoon, he said, at which the cut
flower schedule, prepared that morning
by the subcommittee on schedule, had
been adopted and ordered to be printed.
A resolution was passed instructing
the secretary to send the necessary
qualification to the S. A. F. to make the
incoming president the club's represent-
ative on the society's executive board
during 1921.
Allied Florists Make Progress.
Business completed, the meeting was
turned over to the Allied Florists ' Asso-
ciation, which body included most of
the club's members. The chairmen of
the different sections of the associations
presented reports, all showing progress.
It was evident, however, that difficulty
was bein^ experienced in getting the
retailers into line, mainly because no

Henry Hessiou, representing the Asso-

tinuance of the old ])lan of voluntary
subscription, amounts to be determined
by those making subscriptions. J. T.
Caparell, rejjresenting the (5reck-Amer-
ican Florists' Association, favored the
assessment i)lan of a certain percentage
of retail purchases from wholesalers.
No definite plan was decided u{)on.
Wallace E. Picrson, Cromwell, Conn.,
spoke at some length upon the subject
of publicity. He expressed himself as
in favor of the growers' underwriting
the campaign with the assistance of the
other branches of the trade. W. J.
Palmer, of Buffalo, N. Y., told of what
the Buffalo florists had done in the way
of local organization, and Robert Kift,
Philadelphia, explained the assessment
plan which had been adopted in Phila-
delphia. Adolph Poehlmann, of Poehl-
niann Bros. Co., Chicago, was present
and took much interest in the proceed.-
ings.
The Exhibition.
A very croditahli' exiiibition was
staged and ])assed upon by the eonimit-
tee on awards.
A. N. I'ierson, Inc., Cromwoll, Conn.,

ber Beauty, which scored 90 points and
was given a ]ireliininary certificate.
Strout's, Inc., Biddeford, Me., staged
a vase of Carnation Maine Sunshine,
which was awarded SG points and a pre-

a vase of a new seedling rose, for which
he was given a vote of thanks.
White Bros., Medina, N. Y., received
a vote of thanks for a vase of a new
rose, said to be a white sport of Sunburst.
The flowers arrived in damaged condi-
tion; therefore the committee could not
score it.
Geo. Schlegel, Brooklyn, N. Y., S. G.

AMONG DENVER'S LEADERS.
Eight years ago, June 3, 1912, P. R.
Lundy and Ben TJoldt opened the Boldt-
Lundy Flower Shop at 614 Sixteenth
street, Denver, Colo. As the Boldt-
Lundy House of Flowers, this estab-
lishment is toilay one of the foremost
in Denver. The accompanying illus-
tration shows the interior of the retail
store, which end of the business is under
the capable management of S. R. Lundy.
Mr. Lundy was at one time employed
by the Park Floral Co., Denver, and
for some years berore he entered into
partnership with Ben Boldt had been
traveling for the A. L. Randall Co., Chi-
cago, and was well known in this con-
nection. He has worked the business
up from almost nothing and it is ini])rov-
ing every day. At busy times Mrs.
Lundy heljis her husband in tlie store
and all the members of the staff arc
busy people.
]5ernard Boldt, better known as Ben
Boldt, has been as successful in the
greenhouse as Mr. Lundy has in the-
store. . He is considered one of Den-
ver's best growers and has made a
specialty of fine plants. He was boni
in Prussia in 1808, where he received
his early training, coming t(j America
jKised upon tlie well-to do class of peo-
ple in the way of contributions that
flowers became a secondary considera-
tion and that those who were regular
customers jirevious to that time patron-
ized flowers siiojis much less frc(|uently.
The trade during the war was ujore or
-less confined to the middle class of peo-
l)le ami t!iiis(.' who necessarily had to
lia\i' llouci-s.
"With the return of ]ieace, Mr. Ber-
terniaiin said, he sees that many old
customers have rt'turned and the sale of

in 1893. He was first emploved with
J. H. Rebstock, of Buffalo, N. Y. In
June, 1900, he went to Denver and was
employed as foreman by the Park Floral
Co., with whom he remained until 1905,
when ho took charge of the greenhouses
of the Daniels & Fisher Stores Co.
About 191(6 he bought a greeniiouse
range and was in business for himself,
doing a wholesale, retail and cut flower
trade, until 1912. The present partner
ship works out in great shape. Mr. Boldt
has all his time to devote to growing,
and Mr. Lundy has a clear field for de-
veloping retail trade.
BERTERMANN A BOOSTER.
Optimistic on Business.
Two-thirds of a column in ;iii Indian
apolis news]»aper one day last week was
devoted to an interview of Irwin Bcrter-
mann, of Bertt'rmann Bros. Co., on the
holiday lousiness in flowers. His rciisdii^
for expressing himself optiinistic;ill\
should give less j)ositive believers a
basis for more encouraging views. The
article read in part:
"The holiday tr.ade in all kinds of
flowers promises to be one of th<> best
local florists have ever had. ;ilth<iut;li
on account of the increasing ]>opu
larity and growing deman<l for flow-
ers, especinlly durinij the winter sea
son, it is ditlicult, other than regarding
holly and wreaths, to determine just
what is for Christmas and what is not.
"According to Irwin Bertermann, the
business of the florists is just getting
back to normal. He said that during
the war such heavv burdens were im-
tliiwers has greatly increased in a gen-
eral way. He also saiil that the sale of
flowers is growing rapidly all over the
country and that there has been a great
change in that respect during the last
fifteen years. People are learning, he
said, that when they are closely housed
during the dreary months of winter,
when all nature is chilled and hushed
with a thralldom of snow and ice, thert'
is nothing so cheerful and pleasing as
flowers in the living room in even the
humblest of homes.
"Concerning the price and conditions
governing the flower trade, Mr. Berter-
mann said that many ])ersons doubtless
jiresume that florists desire making as
few sales as possible and depend on a
large margin of profit. The proposition
is just exactly the opposite, he said
While it is true that, like dealers in all
other lines of business, they take care of
the big sales, yet progressive florists
make a specialty of catering to small
sales, preferring a large volume of busi-
ness and a small margin of profit.
"As to Christmas trade this year, Mr.
Bertermann said there is no change over
other years. Industrial conditions, he
said, do not have the same effect on the
florists' line of business as it does on
many other lines. People will have
flowers at Christmas time because flow-
ers enter into the very spirit of the
occasion.
" 'Our people could not well observe
this memorable and joyous event, breath-
ing "Peach on earth, good will to men,''
without having flowers to exemplify its
purity anil consecrate its purpose,' Mr.
IJertermaim said, ' '

SHIPPING TO TEXAS.
About tlic time of deceiving several
orders from Texas, we received notice
from the department of agriculture of
Texas that we had to have our houses
inspected by our state department and
procure a permit from the state of
Texas before shipping. Thereupon we
at once corresponded with the depart-
ment of our state and were informed
that there was no law in effect requir-
ing such examination. We wrote the
Texas authorities to that effect, stating
that we would, however, inspect our
houses when outside work could not be
followed any more in the fall. The Texas
authorities did not reply at all, though
we wrote them again December 4. We
obtained copies of laws covering this
subject and allowing us to forward the
orders on file pending inspection by our
state department and mailed them to the
Texas authorities. We also have written
some of the parties informing them of
the facts in the case and have returned
checks to all firms ordering plants-
five in all.
We have written three letters to the
Texas department of agriculture. We
do not like to lose our Texas trade, as
we make a considerable number of ship-
ments to that state. We regret greatly
that these conditions exist.
Several years ago some Texas orders
were returned by rea'son of these laws.
At that time we asked the inspector who
was inspecting our imported azaleas
what to do and we were informed that
we could make the shipment, as there
was no such law. The Texas customer
wrote us to forward his order, stating
that the law was not enforced, and
thereupon wo again made shipment.

reached leadership is known to possess
latent ability. He usually has little to
say, but accomplishes what he sets out
to do. Though quiet and unassuming,
yet he possesses a genius for organiza-
tion that succeeded in organizing the
first exclusive commercial flower grow-
ers' association, which gave him the
publicity he deserved.
As a national figure, the growers are
following his efforts in all parts of the
country. The Commercial Flower Grow-
ers of Chicago had first to succeed
locally before a growers' organization
campaign could be launched nationally.
When he assumes the reins of his new
office Mr. Kohout will surround himself
with strong committees in the hands of
capable men who will work to serve.
The opportWity is now his to offer the
entire trade-progressive ideas in a ^ast
changing^usiness. As he says, "good
ideas will be put over; bad ones will be
blocked."
A constructive program is under prep-
aration for the firing of the first shot

PBOPAQATING L. CANDIDUM.
I should like to know how to cause
the tiny bulbs to come on the separate
layers of candidum lily bulbs which
have been pulled loose from the bulb.
I have discovered that when broken off,
these sprout two, three and sometimes
four little bulbs. I want to know what
conditions are best suited to make this
happen. I have several hundred bro-
ken pieces and want to propagate them.

SOUNDS LIKE OLD TIMES.
The editorial comment on postal serv-
ice in The Review of December 9 brings
to mind two incidents that were related
Fresh scales carefully removed from
the bulbs of L. candidum and some
other lilies can be planted in flats of
light, sandy soil. One containing some
leaf-mold is to be preferred. If you
have a considerable number, use a cold-
frame. Set the scales a couple of
inches apart and cover one and one-half
to two inches. Do not place the flats
in greenhouses at all, but allow them to
become frozen in winter. These scales
will usually develop tiny bulbs at their
base, which will grow to a flowering
size, in the case of candidum, in two or
three years. 0. W.

FOR CARNATIONISTS
AMERICAN CARNATION SOCIETY.
KOHOUT COALITION CANDIDATE. Meets Next Month in Washington.
The unanimous nomination and elec-
tion of Joseph Kohout as president of
the Chicago Florists' Club was the se-
lection of a candidate who stands for
progress along the lines of least resist-
ance. Joseph Kohout can truly be said
to be the harmony candidate upon whom
the varied membership and the several
auxiliary organizations agreed. His
selection places the Chicago Florists'
Club as the final arbitrator of the differ-
ences that naturally exist among the
various branches in the city. A step
toward coalition of the separate organ-
izations that exist in our industry has
been taken.
The Chicago Florists' Club offers to
him the widest scope of operation and
gives to the trade the kind of adminis-
tration that produces team-work.
The success of the growers' organ-
ization is pronounced to have been due
to the fact that the growers understand
Mr. Kohout, know him to do his duty
and to govern impartially.
Those growers intimate vvitli his meth-
ods and retailers who know of his work
recognize his potential ability for
thought, as one from the ranks who,
through hard and persistent work, has
The premium list has been issued for
the thirtieth annual convention of the

NEW YORK.
The Market.
The cut liower market continues dull,
in si)ite of a rather scant supply. If
the demand were anything ne;ir normal,
buyers would face a scarcity. The ap-
proach of the liolidays is occasioning
many retailers anxiety as to the prices
they will have to pay for Christmas
suj)plies, an anxiety which no one seems
able to relieve. The plantsmeu have all
accomjilished a good holiday business,
and the surplus is expected to" be exceed-
ingly light. A few cut poinsettias seen
in the market serve to remind the trade
that Christmas is at hand and that
about ends their j)resent usefulness, as
they do not attract a demand for them.
Berried twigs and green goods are
jirominent in the olferings of the su])ply
dealers, but no jtronounced demand for

to be a waiting jicdicy generally i<l>

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

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

At the meeting of the Gardeners' and

1921 will be elected. William H. Elliott
will speak on "My Trip to the High

John T. Butterworth is cutting a fine
crop of zygopetalums, Oncidium or-
nithorhynchum and cypripediums. Plants
of Cypripedium insigne Sanderaj carry as
many as thirteen flowers each.
The seed stores report a good call for
lilies, including speciosum, auratum and
side the spoils of the hunt. In other
words, C. C. PoIIworth bagged another
deer this fall — and a big one too, as the
reader may judge for himself. The
week of Thanksgiving was chosen for
Mr. PoIIworth 's annual hunting trip
this year. He reports a splendid time,
with four inches of snow on the ground,
making hunting conditions almost per-
fect.

It is tlie irony of fat.i', after sweating
over the accumulation of a l)ig coal pile
for winter, to have the ])recious stuff
set itself afire in the slied.
Uncertainty is the greatest business
obstacle at present. The consensus is
that underlying conditions augur improve-
ment when confidence in the price level
is restored.
No florist should attempt to do busi-
ness without a printed letterhead. To
send orders on plain paper at once sug-
gests to the wholesale dealer that here is
a small buyer who should pay retail
prices.
Bradstkeet's index of wholesale prices
indicates a drop of one-third from the
top notch figure of a year ago, or to the
level of December, 1916. But the com-
modities listed do not include florists'
requirements.
Anonymoi's contributions are not
heeded by The Review. Readers should

sons for their omission in the publication

Materi.\l for both tlie editorial and
the advertising columns of The Review

Monday to appear in the current week's
issue. Nothing is to be lost, moreover,
by getting it in earlier than that.
From all parts of the United States
comes the report that the shortage of
greenhouse labor has passed, but it is
manual labor only which is in surplus;
experienced help still is scarce and prob-
ably the supply never can be increased
except by training young men who show
aptitude for the work.
It is believed by some that the present
surplus on the labor market is due more
to a desire of large industrial establish-
ments to lower their labor costs than to
a slackening in demand for workers.
When readjustment is accomplished, all
will enjoy business prosperity again on
lower price and wage scales.
Ali. danger of a fuel famine has
jiassed in the widesj)road decrease in in-
dustrial activity. Prices are falling.
Florists as a whole are to be congratu-
lated on continued good business in com-
parison with the lack of it in most other
lines just now.
CHICAGK) TO WASHINGTON.
The- transportation committee of the
Chicago Florists' Club has selected the
Pennsylvania railroad for tlie trip to
the convention of the American Carna-
tion Society and the meeting of the
National Flower Growers' Association,
to be held at Washington, D. C, Janu-
ary 26 and 27. The party will leave the
Union station, Canal and Adams streets,
on the Manhattan Limited, Tuesday,
January 25, at 10:30 a. m., and arrive
in Washington the following morning
at 9:28.
The fare one way, tax included, is
$30.97. Pullman fares are: Lower berth,
$8.91; upper, $7.13; compartment, $25.11;
drawing room, $32.40.
Other Pennsylvania trains include the
Broadway Limited, leaving the Union
station at 12:40 p. m. and arriving in
Washington at 9:28 the following morn-
ing. On this train, an extra fare of
$7.78 is added to the regular ticket rate
named above. The Pennsylvania Lim-
ited, leaving the Union station at 5:30
p. m., arrives at Washington at 4:30
p. m.
On the Baltimore & Ohio railroad,
trains leave Chicago at 8:40 a. m. and
10:45 a. m. and arrive at Washington
respectively at 7:30 a. m. and 9:00 a. m.

WHAT CONTROLS PRICES?
Growers are discussing a suggestion
that meetings of large middle-western
and eastern producers be held to see
what can be done in the direction of
maintaining prices commensurate with
the cost of production, some of those
interested having decided that all the
signs point to an overproduction of
young stock, particularly rose plants,
and cut flowers in the first half of 1921.
It is true, of course, that a knowledge
of what it costs to produce good stock
has some influence on the determination
of the seller to demand and maintain
profitable prices, but cost of jiroduction
never has, and probably never will, con-
trol our prices. In this trade prices are
controlled almost solely by supply and
demand. We had a good demonstration
of that in the first half of 1920, when
for a time demand so exceeded supply
that prices were forced upward to the
point that the public sharply curtailed
its purchases, whereupon the pendulum
swung the other way and supply so ex-
ceeded demand that prices fell far be-
low cost of production and much cut
stock and some plants were sold through
department stores, drug stores, etc.
Eventually the public learned prices had
fallen and resumed buying, restoring
equilibrium. It will be ever thus. We
cannot regulate prices; it will be folly
to try. Nor can we regulate supply; it
will fluctuate with the seasons and will
increase when profits rise and decrease
as profits fall. But we can regulate de-
mand by stimulating it. That is our
best chance.
The Review does not see reason to be-
lieve that there will be overproduction
in any line of our business in 1921.
There will be seasonal gluts more or less
as in the past, but production has not
recently increased so fast as demand
has grown and if there is some decrease
in the demand in the next few months,
due to general business conditions, it
scarcely can do so much as to restore the
balance. But if the public should de-
cide the prices of plants and flowers are
too high, it would be folly to try to de-
feat the working of the old law of sup-
ply and demand. Any ,attempt to main-
tain prices by artificial means could
only bring disaster.
SHORTEN LIGHT TO HASTEN CROP I
To get poinsettias ready for the mar-
ket by Christmas is a problem that has
worried florists ever since the bright
red, flower-like leaves of this beautiful
plant took their place as a favorite holi-
day decoration, says the U. S. Depart-
ment of Agriculture, although it does
not state where it got its information.
"The problem has been reduced to a
practical solution through the work of
Dr. W. . W. Garner, tobacco specialist,
and H. H. Allard, plant physiologist,
who discovered the possibility of ad-
vancing or retarding the growth of
plants by controlling the period of light
each day," says the department's
weekly paper. ' * Where the light period
is shortened the plants reach maturity
much sooner than where they are given
the natural length of day. In the
greenhouses on the department's ex-
perimental farm at Arlington, Va., it
has been found possible to bring poin-
settias into full form as early as Au-
gust by shortening the daily exposure to
light.
"In fact, department specialists are
confident that there is' practically no
limit to the extent to which the Garner-
Allard discovery may be applied in the
ordinary florists' establishments in
bringing various flowers into bloom out-
side of the customary season. Iris in
December and chrysanthemums in the
spring are among the accomplishments
already attained, and it is the intention
of these specialists to bring together a
group of flowers, all of different natural
seasons, into bloom at the same time.
One value of the discovery lies in the
fact that it can be applied with only
simple and inexpensive additions to the
facilities of any greenhouse."
THESE HELP SOME.
Publishers, like other people, have
their off days, but sometimes on one of
these a letter comes to help a little, like
this:
Wp ooiiUl not think of running a greenhouse
without The Review. Have taken It continuouslv
sin<e the start and note with pleasure it is now
iihoiit live times the size of Its first issue.— W. J.
Miller, Pontiac, 111., December C, 1920.
And then comes this:
We are all sold out. sixty days ahead of last
.yeiir, when we advertised in all the florist papers.
We take particular note that your splendid pa-
per brings us orders from territory In which we
never have been able to sell by any other means.
May The Review in the coming year equal the
great work It has arcoraplished for the trade In
past years; we are boosting for The Review.—

Erford L. Page.
Erford L. Page, former president of
the American Seed Trade Association,
died Thursday, December 9, at his home
in Greene, N. Y. Mr. Page entered the
seed business in January, 1886. Then a
student at Cornell University, the death
of his father necessitated his manage-
ment of affairs in his father's store.
At the age of 21, Mr. Page was at the
head of the largest general store in the
country town of Greene. When 23
years of age, he married Cornelia J.
Eussell, daughter of "William F. Eus-
sell, of the banking firm of Eussell &
Juliand.
About 1901 Mr. Page entered the
seed business on a large scale and organ-
ized the Page Seed Co. He extended
this business and made it a conspicuous
success. He was elected president of
the American Seed Trade Association
in 1910. Mr. Page''had been president
of the municipal board of the town of
Greene and was a trustee in the Con-
gregational church. He was a man of
executive ability, conservative and pru-
dent in management, and during his
business career was identified with the
best things in business practice.
In addition to his forming and build-
ing up the Page Seed Co., Mr. Page or-
ganized the Page-Phillips Seed Co., To-
ledo, C, which he later sold to the
manager. He was one of the principal
owners of the Pieters-Wheeler Seed Co.,
at Gilroy, Cal.
The funeral was held Sunday, Decem-
ber 12, at the home, on North Chenango
street, Greene, N. Y., Eev. G. E. Foster,
of the Congregational church, and Eev.
A. A. Bresee, of the Episcopal church,
ofl5ciating. Mr. Page is survived by his
wife and two sons; one, Joseph E. Page,
is connected with the Page Seed Co. and
the other, Lyman A. Page, is attending
Cornell University.
INDIANAPOLIS, IND.
The Market.
Prospect.-; for Christinas are none too
bright. The dark weather has retarded
stock to a considerable extent. Flowers
are not joining into bloom as has been
anticipated, sweet peas are dropping
their buds and carnations are opening
extremely slowly. Christmas plants,
too, have been held back.
Eoses are scarce, with prices ranging
from $6 to $35 per hundred. Carnations
are not appearing in any large quanti-
ties. The price has been from $6 to $8,
but predictions are that these will rise
to $8 and $10 within a few days. Christ-
mas prices will be considerably higher.
Lilies are rare. A few local growers
have some for their own use, but none
are reaching the commission merchants.
Sweet peas are a little more abundant,
but the price remains at $3 per hundred.
A few pompon chrysanthemums still
linger and sell well.
Paper Whites have been a welcome
addition and move well at from $4 to $6
per hundred. Stevia is in such heavy
<1emand that the supply is inadequate.
Association Meeting.
The December meeting of the Indiana
Erford L. Page.
State Florists' Association was held at
the store of the Smith & Young Co.,
Tuesday evening, December 7. In the
absence of Anders Easmussen and Her-
man Junge, Irwin Bertermann presided.
Three new members were elected at
this meeting: Carl Eienian, Indian-
apolis; E. A. McKernan, Knightstown,
and C. F. Coffey, Kokomo. Mr. Oberg,
of Wabash, Ind., was proposed for mem-
bership.
Secretary 0. E. Steinkanip gave a re-
port on the contemplated floriculture
course at Purdue University. A con-
ference will be held December 18 with
Mr. Simpson, of Vincennes, Ind., who is
is on the advisory committee on state
institutions. An appropriation from the
legislature will be the first requisite.
After it is obtained a course will be
mapped out by Professor Laurenz
Green, the head of the horticultural
work at Purdue University, and Otto
Xehrling, of Crawfordsville, who will
represent the Indiana State Florists'
Association.
The next meeting will be the annual
meeting and will be held Tuesday,
.Tanuary 11, the place to be announced
later.
Tlie following committee was ap-
pointed to assist in arranging the pro-
cram for the annual meeting: Oscar
Carlstcdt. Tom Hepler and E. E. Tem-
perley. The committee appointed to
audit the year's books was: Mr. War-
ner, Edwin Morner and Otto Lawrenz.
Since there was practically no new
business, that part of the meeting was
soon over and most of the evening was
spent socially. Eefreshments were
served by the hosts.
Various Notes.
While on his way home from work
Otto Eieman was struck by an automo-
bile and was seriously injured.
Herman Junge is greatly improved.
He was able to make two trips to the
city last week.
Baur & Steinkanip 's new white car-
nation. Harvester, scored 93 points at
Chicago. At the Mid-west Horticultural
Exposition at Council Bluffs, la., re-
cently, tJieir new chrysanthemum.
Thanksgiving Pink, scored 96 points.
Glen Moore, of Eushville, called on
the trade last week. Mr. Warner, of
Meikel & Warner, Noblesville, Ind., was
in the city recently, gathering up Christ-
mas stock. E. E. T.
CHICAGO.
The Market.
Tlie market is experiencing the usual
lull tliat precedes the storm. Continued
dark weather has still further reduced
the supply and the approach of Christ-
mas has had the customary effect of
taking people's thoughts from flowers
and occupying their attention with ac-
tivities which do not call for the use of
flowers. It has been stated by some
observers that half the flowers produced
are used for funerals — and that would
be something like the measure of the
present volume of business compared to
what was doing a few weeks ago. Ship-
ping is much more active than city
trade, which is brisk only now and then.
It is noticed that the stores with high-
class trade are holding up to recent
standards much better than are the
stores in the workingmen's sections of
the city. The well-to-do seem to be
spending more freely again, while the
wage-earners are tightening up — the
latter is especially noticeable in the
average size of the orders for funeral
work. As one retailer put it, "a year
ago they didn't wait for their change;
now they don't bring anything but
change with them."

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

Various Notes.
C. A. Samuelson has eonio in from his
Snake River farm to spend the holidays
in the store. Farm life lias many strong
attractions for him, but he enjoys two
or three weeks at the old business.
Bassett & Washburn have had a dis-
play of cut Erica melanthera grown by
Roy Wilcox & Co., at Montebello, Cal.
The Wilcox concern has many thousands
of plants under lath houses and is ship-
ping large quantities of cut sprays,
which bring excellent prices, all the
way from 5 cents to 60 cents per spray.
I. Rosnosky has returned from a two
months' trip through the south for the
A. B. C. President Miller also is at
home from a fortnight's visit to Cleve-
land, Cincinnati and other Ohio cities.
The A. B. C. had its third shipment of
valley pips in New York last week.
Adolph Poehlmann is exploring the
east in quest of novelties and taking the
first vacation he has had in a long time.
W. Abrahamson, who has charge of
the fixture department of the A. L. Ran-
dall Co., was in Memphis last week,
where the company is installing new
equipment for Johnson, the Flower Shop
and others.
John T. Muir spent the week end at
his farm at Mears, Mich.
J. P. Risch retains his liking for the
Mrs. Bayard Thayer rose. The Weiland-

in this vicinity sheltering this true flesh-
pink variety. Mr. Risch says it is popu-

a little higher price than other sorts to
make it pay.
Of the newer roses, E. Wienhoeber
thinks specially well of Victor, the E. G.
Hill seedling of which the entire stock
was acquired by Wendland & Keimel Co.
It most nearly resembles Killarney
Brilliant when that variety was at its
best. It is not as double as some peo-

flower, color, stem and foliage it leaves
little to be desired.

ing the great number of seeds started
in the summer of 1918, the quantity of
good stock on the market this season
seems to be extremely small. Some of
the most skillful growers are reported
to have lost half their plants and others
still more.
Bouquet green is not a matter of much
interest to florists any more, but it may
be noted that bulk green is selling at
18 cents per pound at Chicago this week.
Holly also is scarce. The demand, how-
ever, is greatly reduced and $9 per case
is about as much as can be obtained for
jood average stock.
Henry Kusik, the Kansas City wholc-
jalcr, was here this week to look the
market over.
Joseph Foerster pointed to a large dis-
])lay of Romans, with the remark, ' ' How
long since you saw the like of these!"
No Romans were im])orted last year and
only small quantities of bulbs came
from France this season, so it is two
years since the market has been well
supplied with this chief competitor of
lily of the valley.
The Tonner pecan orchards yielded
over 6,.")00 pounds of nuts this year,
which were expressed to the store in
Chicago.
E. C. Pruner has completed his 1920
travels for Pochlmann Bros. Co., having
come home last week from the soutli-
west. He says business with florists is
good except in a few localities where
cotton is not being picked and marketed.

asked for an additional appropriation of
$500 to be used for the coming holidays.
On motion, this was allowed and the
committee given full power to act. The
baseball suits used by the ' ' Say It with
Flowers" ball team were returned to
the committee and ordered stored for
next season. As the next regular meet-
ing falls on December 22, during a busy
week for all, it was decided that the
committee would meet Wednesday after-
noon, December 29, when full attend-
ance is requested.
Walter Sanders, eldest son of C. C.
Sanders, head of the Sanders Nursery
Co., has moved his family from St.
James, Mo., to St. Louis. He is now a
member of the company and will be of
great assistance during the coming busy
days.
Mr. and Mrs. John Steidle and their
two daughters, who spent the summer in
Europe, returned home recently and re-
port a splendid time during the trip.
Henri Duernberg, of Grimm & Gorly,
is now a full-fledged Mason, having com-
pleted his thirty-second degree a week
ago. Many Mason florists were present
to welcome him into the fold.
Frank Foster, youngest son of Fred
J. Foster, head of the Foster Floral Co.,
met with an automobile accident last
week, which resulted in his death. The
local trade extended their sympathy to
the bereaved family.

Fibreboard boxes are the most convenient. They come

Bulis Patented Corner Clasps^to^ether like a Klove and the
cover is ready. Then slip a "Fishhook" fastener over each
corner of the box and it is ready.
Bulis Boxes are liifht weiffht, with so strongrly reinforced
corners t^at they stand the weight of heaviest parcels in ship-

Ruscus is now available on tiie market
in four colors, gold, silver, red and
green. Holly wreaths and loose holly
are also on the market, as well as box-
wood. The demand is quite heavy. A
few chrysanthemums still remain, but
carnations, roses, narcissi, sweet peas,
violets and stcvia are plentiful and in
great demand.
Plants include Jerusalem cherries,
cyclamens, primroses, begonias and
some excellent ferns. The demand for
potted offerings is lieavy. Several flo-
rists liave some fancy pots and bowls
with narcissus bulbs planted in them
in preparation for holiday sale.

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

Perhaps it was the Philadelphia subway
that was meant after all, for out on the
broad highroad right in front was a sign
that read "To Atlantic City," and At-
lantic City was over ninety miles away.
Mr. Harvey, Sr., solved this question
by leading the way to the end of the
greenhouse, down a flight of steps,
through a tunnel, up another flight of
steps into another large greenhouse!
The problem had been how to connect
two ranges without cutting off the main
driveway that ran between them and
without exposing the night fireman or
his less important employees to the
weather. The subway is the solution.
It is the work of Evans Harvey. It is
made of reinforced concrete and is ex-
tremely well done.
American Legion.
Edward Towill's new cerise pink rose,
American Legion, is the livest thing in
the florists' world today. It is said to
have brought E. Gurney Hill from Rich-
mond. It received a visit from Charles
H. Totty, who was here last week, and
now no less important a personage than
Adolph Poehlmann has come on, it is
said, expressly to see the Towill seed-
ling. Mr. Poehlmann has 600 plants of
American Legion growing on his com-
pany's place at Morton Grove, 111,
where it is doing finely. It is unde»

The Market.
Tlie weather so far this fall and win-
ter has been exceptionally warm. Con-
siderable saving of coal has already
been made on account of the mild
weather. Christmas stock is in fine
sliape, although indications are that it
will be short in quantity. The many
parties for young folks home for the
holidays and other like events have
made for somewhat bettor business the
last week or two. A considerable quan-
tity of artificial material is being used
locally.
Various Notes.
The Minneapolis Florists' Club held
a well attended meeting December 7.
A resolution was introduced, which will
be voted on at the January meeting, dis-
banding this club and uniting with the
state association. This seemed to meet
favor with a large number of the mem-
bers. The effect would be to make one
large club with much more i)uwer than
two smaller ones.
The fifty-fourth annual meeting of the
Minnesota State Horticultural Socictv
was held at the store of the L. S. Donald-
son Co.. Minneapolis, December 7 to 10.
A small fruit and vegetalflc show and
an excellent program were tlie features
of the meeting. Retween l.'iO and 300
were in regular attendance. The officers
for the coining year were elected as fol-
lows: President, C. F. Smith, Minne-
apolis; secretarv, R. S. Mackintosh. St.
Paul. F. C. Schletz, St. Paul, and D. C.
Webster, La Crescent, were elected mem-
bers of the executive committee. The
Minnesota State Horticultural Society
is one of the largest in the country and
numbers nearly 4,000 members.
The evening of December 7 about 100
members of the Northwestern Peony
and Iris Society listened to an excellent
program. The election of officers was
held and J. C. Stryker, of St. Paul, was
reelected president; W. F. Christman,
of Minneapolis, was elected secretary,
and directors were elected as follows:
Mrs. H. B. Tillotson, Minneapolis: John

The Minnesota State Florists' Asso-
ciation held its meeting Wednesday

that a dance be held January 18. Presi-

The Market.
Last week was "the calm before the
storm." The holiday rush will soon be
here. Shippers are doing a big business
already. IJntil two weeks ago potted
stock was not moving well, but during
the last few days orders have been com-
ing in thick and fast. The best stock in
many lines is already spoken for. Just
at present there are enough roses, but
undoubtedly there will be a shortage
during Christmas week, as some of the
larger growers expect to cut less than
a year ago. Carnations have not
changed from last week and there has
been no advance in prices. Other stock
is arriving in large quantities and will
fill in nicely for the holiday.
Potted plants will consist chiefly of
begonias, poinsettias, cyclamens and
cinerarias. Local florists will probably
be unable to handle trees this year, ow-
ing to the decision of the city council
to license the sale of these.
Various Notes.
The Alpha Floral Co. displayed a
window of funeral wreaths in Christmas
colors.
Fred Meyer is cutting some. fine roses
and has a fine crop for Christmas cut-
ting.
George Brinker is cutting some fine
carnations. His light pink sport from
Ward, called Denver, seems to improve
each year. Mr. Brinker does not pro-
pose to disseminate it for another three
years. Another of his sports from Ward,
a white, looks quite promising.
Visitors last week included Frank
Sauerwald, of Pueblo, Colo.; Edward
Johnson, of Colorado Springs, Colo., and
O. B. Bobbins, of Loveland, Colo.
Graul Bros, are cutting some good
roses, but their carnations did not re-

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

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

pecially as the weather is now excellent
for planting. Mr. Kooyman is prepar-
ing various assortments of bulbs for
Christmas gift purposes.
The E. W. McLellan Co. is almost out

Julius Eppstein ia finding decorations
for luncheons and dinners much in de-
mand at the St. Francis hotel. Owing
to the seriousness of the help question
on the Pacific coast, many hostesses en-
tertain at hotels and restaurants.
The MacRorie-McLaren Co. has a
large stock of potted plants at its nurs-
eries. Manager Louis J. Capurro has
arranged for a special holiday display.
The Thomas Floral Co. is anticipating
a large holiday season, especially in
potted plants. The new branch of this
firm, the Conservatory, at 901 Larkin
street, is now under the management of
F. Shibeley, who has been in the flo-
rists' business here for thirty years. Mr.
Thomas states that his manager's popu-
larity is resulting in excellent business
for the Conservatory.
Eosaia Bros, are experiencing a brisk
demand for their violets and roses. They
find their new San Francisco quarters,
at O'Farrell & Jones streets, quite con-
venient for business.
At a recent society luncheon, admira-
tion was expressed for a color combina-
tion of fruit, vegetables and flowers
designed at Albert O. Stein's estab-
lishment. In large brass opium bowls,
heather, yellow baby mums and Irish
Elegance roses were combined with egg-
plant, green and red peppers, persim-
mons, crooked-necked squash and striped
squash in green and yellows and pome-
granates, the whole having a sky effect
given by turquoise blue rilibon.
Mrs. R. E. Darbee says that eastern
florists are beginning to realize the
decorative properties of woodwardias,
from which a beautiful tree fern can
easily bo built by using the long, single
leaves, which ship easily. One of Mrs.
Darbee '3 fern hunters is sending her
occasional shipments of another beauti-
ful fern, known locally as dccr-tongue
fern. M. M.

the retailers after the Thanksgiving
holidays, but the demand has been about
even with the supply in spite of this.
Stock is shortening up as far as local

condition, together with a number of
large decorations and plenty of funeral

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

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

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

One Hundred Acres of Strawberry Plantst the Third Largest Patch in the Worldt near Salinas, Cal.
The increase of home building, looked
for with descending prices of materials,
will add to the demand for ornamentals.
Middle-west nurserymen held a 2-day
meeting at Minneapolis, December 6 and
7. Nearly every nursery in that section
was represented.
California's ability to produce plants
formerly imported is dwelt upon by Roy
F. Wilcox, of Montebello, Cal., on another
page of this issue, headed "Growing Our
Own. ' '
The DeGalvez Nursery Co., Pine Har-
bor, Va., has been granted a charter with
a capital of $50,000. Incorporators are
C. H. Goodnow, A. H. McCord and
Charles Krutchoff.
Walter Sanders, eldest son of the
head of the Sanders Nursery Co., St.
Louis, Mo., C. C. Sanders, is now a mem-
ber of the firm and has moved with his
family from St. James, Mo., to St. Louis.
J. A. Taylor, who twenty years ago
was in the fruit and nursery business at
Wynne Wood, Okla., expects to reenter
the trade in a small way at Memphis,
Tenn. He is planning to erect a 50-foot
greenhouse. Mr. Taylor will grow chiefly
peonies.
Fertilizer experiments conducted dur-
ing the period of 1912 to 1919, inclusive,
with apples, pears, cherries, grapes and
apple nursery stock are described in bul-
letin No. 477 of the New York Agricul-
tural Experiment Station, at Geneva. No
definite results have been obtained and
the work is to be continued. Those inter-
ested in the progress of the experiments
may obtain the bulletin free of charge
upon request.
The Northwestern Peony and Iris So-
ciety held its annual meeting December
7, at Minneapolis. About 100 were pres-
ent. The officers elected were: President,
J. E. Stryker, St. Paul, reelected ; secre-
tary, W. F. Christman, Minneapolis;
directors, D. W. C. Ruff, St. Paul; Mrs.
H. B. Tillotson, Minneapolis; John H.
Kleitsch, Duluth; A. C. Amy and LeRoy
Cady, University Farm, St. PauL It ia
proposed to hold several shows next year.
At the convention of the California
Association of Nurserymen it was re-
ported that the nurserymen of the state
had already sold seventy-five per cent of
their stock for next spring's planting.
CAUFOBNIA'S BIO BEBBY FABM.
100 Acres Near WatsonviUe.
The H. A. Hyde Co., at Watsonville,
Cal., is widely known among florists,
chiefly through its bulb productions. To
nurserymen its output of trees and berry
plants makes this firm one of note. Its
100 acres of strawberry plants, which
was the subject of a page article in the
Pacific Rural Press for October 23, is
interesting to those in the trade who
handle that line.
One thousand tons of strawberries
for the season of 1921 is the estimate
placed on the output from the patch
of the H. A. Hyde Co., known as the Oak
Grove Berry Farm, located six miles
east of Salinas. It is the largest
strawberry patch west of the Missis-
sippi river, and the third -largest in
the world, the largest being in Vir-
ginia and the second in North Caro-
lina. Eleven months ago this straw-

lieving that the soil and climatic con-
ditions were ideal for strawberry pro-
duction, H. A. Hyde, president of the
company, staked his reputation and
his capital on a "try out." For years

Progressives had just been plowed up —
discarded because they require too much
intensive care for commercial plantings.
In the matter of irrigation nothing
has been overlooked that might at some
critical moment prevent prompt and
sufScient application of water. A sys-
tem of flumes, five miles in length, lines
the roadway, and it is through these
12xl2-ineh conductors that water is car-
ried with ease to all parts of the farm.
The lateral flumes are 8x8 inches. The
water is secured from two sets of wells,

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

Taking half-ripened wood in July is

The Florists^ Review
Dgcrudkr Iti, 1929
TORONTO, ONT.
The Market.
Business continues fair, with all the
florists preparing their plans for Christ-
mas trade. There appears to be plenty
of stock in sight and the general belief
is that there will be a great deal of
business done during the week before
Christmas. In fact, orders are being
booked now for Christmas delivery.
Prices, both wholesale and retail, will be
about the same as last year.
Vaxious Notes.
The feature of the week was the an-
nual Christmas trade show of Carl
Grobba, at Mimico, Ont. He enter-
tained the trade December 7 and 8.
While the greenhouses were being in-
spected, visitors were entertained by
vocal and instrumental music. Refresh-
ments were served at the end of the
afternoon. Included in the display were
beautiful specimens of cyclamens, dra-
caenas, poinsettias, begonias, crotons,
pandanus, rubber trees, ferns and vari-
ous other seasonable plants and greens.
In addition, there were blooms for
Christmas cutting in quantity. The
steady stream of visitors expressed de-
light with the whole show. Foundations
are in for several extensions to the
Grobba greenhouses. .T. J. H.
RICHMOND, VA.
John L. Ratcliffe entertained 550
orphan children at the Jefferson hotel
Saturday afternoon, December 11. The
dinner, which was an event in the his-
tory of Richmond, was a Christmas fete
given in honor of Mrs. Buford. The chil-
dren were gathered from the various
charitable organizations of the city.
Mr. Ratcliffe, who was indefatigable
in his efforts to entertain his young
guests, was assisted by a group of
ladies. There was music, singing by
the children and a real good time. The
affair was a tremendous success.

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

The Market.
With the coining of the Christmas
rush and everybody pliiciiijr orilcrs
early, this market showed a slight lull
last week. Speculation runs high as to
whether trade will be good or bad, but
the general impression is that it will be
about the same as other years. Roses,
including Columbia, Premier and Butter-
fly, are arriving in good condition.
Mums have i)assed their zenith and only
the late varieties are available.
Carnations are going fairly well,
bringing $fi to $8 per hundred. Snap-
dragons are improving as the season goes
on and are moving well. Narcissi, Paper
White and yellow, are arriving in more
abundance, which brings the ])rice of
Paper White down to $.5 per hundred
and yellow to $6 to $8. Stevia is arriv-
ing in larger quantities and selling only
fairly well.
Some good winter berries are avail-
able at a reasonable figure. Some of the
first Scotch heather from the coast has
arrived and is selling well.
Various Notes.
C. E. Critchell had a good week in
Christmas ribbons and chiffons, augur-
ing excellent holiday trade.

PREPAREDNESS
Now is the time to do whatever repair work is necessary,
before the real bad weather sets in.
Are your houses prepared to maintain that unvarying, consist-
ent degree of temperature in order to obtain the best results?
They cannot, unless they have been properly permanited and
made absolutely tight.
Give Permanite a chance to save you money.
And remember, Mr. Florist, we are the manufacturers of the ORIGINAL LCMS Boiler-Setting Cement.
Let us show you how to save many a hard earned dollar this Winter on fuel.

Horticultural Society.
Five names were added to the iiu'in-
bcrship rolls of the Newport Horticul-
tural Society at its last meeting: Eric
Otto, of this city, on the active list;
and Henry Barkey, E. W. Darling, A. J.
Fish and Joseph Figueireo, all of New
Bedford, associate members. The resig-
nation of Joseph Matson, who has re-
moved to Los Angeles, Cal., to engage in
fruit growing, was accepted.
The meeting was one of the most in-
teresting heW in a long time, the prin-
cipal speaker being Prof. E. K. Thomas,
of the Rhode Island State College, at
Kingston. Walter C. Campbell, secre-
tary of the Newport Chamber of Com-
merce, complimented the society on the
work it is doing in the city and prom-
ised the cooperation of the chamber in
every way possible.
One of the most interesting features
of the evening was the address by John
C. Latham, representing John Scheepers,
Inc., New York city, in which he de-
scribed the new dahlias that his concern
is introducing for the coming season,
stating there were thirty-two varieties
in all. He concluded his remarks by
offering on behalf of his concern the
sum of $50 to be offered by the society
in special prizes next fall, at its annual
exhibition, for displays of the firm's
novelties, particulars concerning which
will be given later in the society's
premium lists.
Various Notes.
The case of V. A. Vanicek vs. T.
Suffern Tailcr has been assigned for
trial in the Superior court on the first
trial day in March.
John F. Chase has sold his farm in the
country and will devote his entire atten-
tion to the florists' business on Tilley
avenue, making a specialty of carna-
tions.
John Mahan was defeated for mayor
on the Eepublican ticket in the munici-
pal election last week. He was for many
years superintendent at Hammersmith

incloss, and is now assistant superin-

FLOWEE SHOW COMMITTEE.
Meeting at Cleveland.
A meeting of the national flower show
committee was held at the Hollenden
hotel, Cleveland, O., Wednesday, De-
cember 8. There were present: Chair-
man George Asmus, Chicago; W. H.
Duckham, Madison, N. J.; Frank H.
Traendly, New York; Patrick Welch,
Boston; Herman P. Knoble, Cleveland;
Secretary John Young, New York, and
Vice-President F. C. W. Brown, Cleve-
land. A. F. J. Baur, Indianapolis, Ind.,
represented the American Carnation So-
ciety, and Thomas Roland, Nahant,
Mass., the American Eose Society. Wal-
lace R. Pierson, Cromwell, Conn., also
was present in the interests of the A.
R. S. Henry Penn and Major P. F.
O'Keefe, of Boston, and Frank Ritzen-
thaler, Cleveland, were interested vis-
itors.
The first session opened promptly at
10 a. m. The minutes of the meeting
of the committee held at the Grand Cen-
tral Palace, New York, during the
flower show there last March, were read
and approved.
Mr. Knoble welcomed the gathering
and explained arrangements made for
the sessions during the day, including a
meeting at which S. Prentiss Baldwin,
of the Ohio Horticultural Society, and
ladies who would officially represent the
three important garden clubs of Cleve-
land would be present.
March 25 to AprU 1, 1922.
A letter from Floyd E. Waite, of the
department of public buildings, Cleve-
land, was read, in which he assured the
committee that the dates fixed for the
fifth national flower show, March 25 to
April 1, 1922, to be held in the New
Auditorium at Cleveland, had been
officially reserved. The secretary was
instructed to send an official acknowl-
edgment, so that it would make a con-
tract basis and become part of the rec-
ords. It was understood that the ques-
tion of compensation, or rent, would be
settled later. Blue prints of the differ-
ent floor plans submitted showed that
there would be an abundance of space
for the staging of a most wonderful
competitive exhibition and an extensive
trade exhibit, the whole taking up two
floors.
It was decided that as tliesc national
flower sliows were educational in char-
acter and conducted to increase the in-
terest in and love for flowers and flori-
culture generally on the part of the pub-
lic, it would bo better not to raise the
rate for trade space; consequently, the
rate in force at the Philadelphia show
would be maintained, viz., $1 per square
foot. The price of admission, it was
agreed, should be arranged later, as it
would, necessarily, be governed by the
rental expense attaching to the build-
ing. The consensus was, however, that
a 50-cent admission should be aimed for,
so that none of the public need be de-
nied the privilege of seeing the grand
show planned for 1922.
It was decided to confine the trade
exhibits to a separate floor of the build-
ing. The main floor area, on which the
competitive exhibits are to be staged,
is approximately 120x264 feet, with an
opening, thirteen feet wide, leading to
the corridors under the seating system.
Trade Exhibits.
The lower floor, 120x264 feet approxi-
mately, will carry the trade exhibits;
it would be splendidly adapted for the
display show itself, but the committee
decided to set aside this attractive floor
for trade exhibitors. Without question,
the lower floor, with its high ceiling,
splendid lighting and freedom from
view-hiding columns, will present the
finest quarters ever available for the
trade exhibits. All the trade displays
will be located here, excepting such dis-
plays of ornamental plants or groups as
might link themselves to the decorative
effect of the main floor. It was under-
stood that this reservation would please
the ladies of the garden clubs and the
horticultural societies.
A discussion resulted in a conserva-
tive estimate of the cost of installing
and dismantling such a mammoth ex-
hibition, including the cost of stock, at
half a million dollars.
Messrs. Roland, Duckham and Traend-
ly and Secretary Young were appointed
a committee to go over the show rules
and report at a later session.
Messrs. Asmus, Knoble, Welch and
Baur were appointed a committee to
consider and revise the rules governing
the work and duties of the local com-
mittees and present a report later.
Local Cooperation.
Mr. Knoble reported that the show
would have the benefit of cooperation
by the Ohio Horticultural Society, the
Cleveland Garden Club, the Heights
Garden Club, the Lakewood Garden Club,
the Cleveland public parks, the Cleve-
land Horticultural Society and the
Cleveland Florists' Club. It was pointed
out that the horticultural societies and
garden clubs could assist first by rais-
ing special prizes and by interesting
the owners of private estates to the ex-
tent of preparing exhibits for the show
and inducing the gardeners to make
early preparation. Mr. Roland assured
the committee that he had every reason
to believe that the American Orchid So-
ciety, now in course of organization,
would also cooperate.
It was decided that retail florists who
would make exhibits should be given
each a space 15x15 feet free of charge,
on the floor of the show proper, and if
more space were desired, it would be
furnished at the regular rate, but would
be located on the floor reserved for the
trade exhibits. It was to be stipulated,
however, that all exhibits accorded free
space should be kept up so that they
would be presentable continually
throughout the show period.
Financing.
The secretary was instructed to pro-
ceed at once with the raising of a guar-
antee fund of $20,000, and it was de-
cided that if conditions warranted it, a
ten per cent dividend would be paid
upon the amounts actually paid in.
The show poster was the subject of a
most interesting discussion. The matter
was finally referred to Messrs. Asmus,
Young and Knoble as a committee with
power to act.
It was arranged that the secretary
should, as formerly, have full charge
of the official program or guide pub-
lished in the interest of the show, and
also have charge of the selling of space
in the trade section of the show. He
was also instructed to proceed with the
work in connection with these matters
at once.
An adjournment for lunch was taken
at 1:45 p. m.
Second Session.
The meeting was reconvened at 2:30
p. m. and at this session were present
representatives of the Ohio Horticul-

tural Society and the garden clubs, to
listen to talks by the members of the
committee and others. Walter E. Cook,
president of the Cleveland Florists'
Club, called the gathering to order and
made a stirring address, in which he pre-
dicted real action by everyone in Cleve-
land and vicinity interested in floricul-
ture in making the show the finest ever
held.
Mr. Knoble, being called upon to open
the meeting, explained in a forceful
manner the reason for the visit of the
committee to Cleveland. It was neces-
sary, he said, that the different horticul-
tural bodies should know what was ex-
pected of them, and that it be explained
to them how they could best cooperate
in the work of the show. Afterwards,
Chairman Asmus was called upon to pre-
side.
Mr. Asmus described the work of the
S. A. F. in the promotion of national
flower shows and the reasons which
prompted the society to arrange these
big exhibitions in different parts of the

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

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

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

presided at tlie opening, the chair later
being turned over to Carl Ilagenburger,
of the local growers' association.
!Mr. Eolaiul made a lengthy address,
taking up tlie different classes in the
]>reliminary schedule, and making sug-
gestions as to the filling of them, even
with a limited amount of glass. The
speaker was subjected to a volley of
qucsticms, all of which he answered in
detail.
Mr. Tracndly spoke of various details
which had helped in the success of New
York 's big shows, and Mr. Brown, of
the J. M. Gasser Co., gave an inkling
of what his house was prepared to do
in support of the show. Other speakers
were enthusiastic in their offers of sup-

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

1. All Items In paraBraphs 210 and Ull now
dutiable on a specific per thousand basis should
Ije continued on the same specific basis. As these
items consist of growing crops, on which there
really is no standard market price, an ad valorem
duty is Impracticable, Inasmuch as it invites
fraud by dishonest traders and causes much con
fusion and annoyance to United States officials
and importers.
2. The rates of duty are acceptable as they
now stand. It would lM> a mistake to l>a8e new
rates of duty on present consular values, inas-
much as all items that are now being Imported
were grown under war conditions and are being
invoiced at inflated values. Standard values
within two years will likely be about thirty per
cent of present Invoice values.
The trade wants a tariff that is clear and ex-
plicit in Its terms, also fair and practicable In
principle. We do not want a tariff that is ambig-
uous, but is the source of revenue only to law-
yers and a source of trouble to Toited States

the following ambiguities in present tariff be
corrected, and for the following n-asons:
(a) In paragraph 210 the word "tulii)»" sliould
l>e "tulip." This slight error in printing cost
the I'nited States thousands of dollars in revenue,
as "tulips" was interpreted as applying to the
flowers of tulips, while the term "tulip bull>s"
is clear and explicit.
(b) In paragraph 210 the last words, reading
"provided, that all mature mother flowering bull>«
imported exclusively for propagating purposes
shall be admitted free of duty." should be omit-
ted. This clause was added after our committee
had passed on this paragraph and cost the United
States thousands of dollars in revenue, as prac-
tically all bulbs imported are "mature mother
flowering bulbs" and it is Impossible to decide,
when dut.v is paid, whether the bulbs imported

(c) In paniBrnph 210. we siiKcest that after the
words "Azalea Indira." .von add "twenty-five per
centum ad valorem" ami eliminate the following
word, "and," so as not to toiifuse the twenty-
flvo per cent with cut flowers of same items.
(d) After the words "hyacinth bulbs." in
paragraph 310. wo suggest that you add "$2.r)0
per thousand." so as not to confuse "hyacinth
liulhs ' with t!ie "clumps" which follow thi.s item.
Replying to your ipiestion, the effect of a high
or low tariff on paragraphs 210 and 211 is neg-
ligible, since practically nothing in these para-
graphs is imported that can be produced com-
mercially in the United .Slates. The importing
risks and costs are so great on tlieso living prod-
ucts that the only reason for importing them is
that they cannot be commercially produced here.
A fairly reasonable tariff on these ntw materials
stimulates home production.
Quarantine 37, which you mention, embargoes
many items necessary for home production which
cannot l>e produced here, also other Items which
are produced here but at prohibitive prices, and
while it was promulgated by the Federal Horti-
cultural Board, it is really understood by the

States thousands of dollars in revenue.
Should the commission contemplate any chnnpes
in the present schedule of duty rates, we re-
spectfully request that yon so inform Mr. .Tolm
Young, secretary of the Society of American
Florists, so that its tariff and legislation com-
mittee will have an opport\mity to be heard.
We do not dissect piiraRrapIi 211. as that para-
Rraph embodies Items of interest mainly to n\irs-

The rest of the matters discussed by

PROGRESS VS. PRESTIGE.
Old Name Meets New Fame.
In a recent conversntion with a florist,
the tlircadbare question was asked,
"How is business?" His reply was,
' ' We are Koing on about a8 usual. ' '
This florist is situated in a locality
wliere he does not have an opportunity
to cater to transient trade. As we talked
over old times and the progress t!ie busi-
ness had made, he dropped the remark
that nine out of every ten of his cus-
tomers were the children or p;rand-
children of people who had been custom-
ers of his father back in the davs when

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

some up-to-the-minute store they learned
the business in all its branches and ac-
quired a thorough knowledge of mod-
ern business methods. When the old
folks became tired, but wanted to see
the little business they had striven so
hard to establish continued, the son or
daughter came home to take charge.
And sooner or later this new power in
an old and small business will make it-
self felt.
In every city in the country there
are many people today who think that
if their flowers do not come from a cer-
tain store they are not what they should
be. But the growth of the florists' in-
dustry is affording great opj)ortunities
for the newer and younger members.
For instance, the telegrayih business is
doing much today to give the beginner
a chance to sliow his ability. Supposing
there is a death in a ])romincnt family.
For several generations the members
have been customers of some particular
florist; this florist is called upon to fill
the family order, because they feel that

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

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

and if you see some competitor forging
ahead, don't knock him, but remember
that old proverb, ' ' Whom the gods
would destroy, they first make mad."
Look carefully into your own affairs
and find out what is clogging the wheels
of progress. If this is honestly done,
you are more than apt to find that self-
satisfaction is the cause of the trouble.

The Market.
Indications point to a heavier Christ-
mas business than ever and orders are
being placed early. There has been no
slack period since Thanksgiving and
stock is being cleaned up daily. Carna-
tions will be short, as they have been
for wei'ks jiast. Eoscs should be plenti-
ful and good. There will be no surplus
of any stock. Last week was busy
throughout and prices remained un-
changed.
Various Notes.
Samuel Murray had a window of
begonias last week. The plants were
exceptionally fine.
The T. J. Noll Floral Co. is selling
heavily on Christmas supplies and has
had to reorder several times. Orders
for cut flowers for Christmas are also
coming in well.

each with a centerpiece of fruit, Pre-

done in woodwardia and pampas. Each
of the 180 women guests received a
corsage of roses and heather. There
were more than 300 guests. Miss Hay-
den designed the decorations. Mr. Mur-

always taken an active part in the so-
ciety. He has given the decorations
and flowers every year for the dinner,
which is one of the important social

Holiday buying has begun for the

having a nice business in colored decora-

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

The cherries, being so late, will be of
no value this season and it would not
pay to keep them until another season.
Sow seed early next February; set off
in small pots when the plants are large
enough; gradually harden them and
plant out, about May 10 in your latitude,
in ground only moderately rich. Dig up
and pot in September and you will have

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

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

fine setting for such an elaborate decora-

But the main part of the decorations
was not put in place until after tho
dancers had assembled. It has always
been customary for Mr. Black to arrange
a rack covered with wild smilax around
the wall in front of the boxes to hold
the bouquets of the debutantes. Monday
night there were over 1,000 of these.
Roses, orchids and violets found their
way into this rack. As in most theaters,

the wall is horscshoc-shaped, with the
open part running up to each side of
the stage. This was banked solidly
around the entire floor, nothing but the
finest of the three flowers mentioned
being used.
Fifty young ladies made tlieir bow
and, it is estimated, they averaged
twenty bouquets each. The cheapest
roses use<l were $9 per dozen, and
lieauties, which were in the majority,
were .$2(l, to say nothing of gardenias,
orchids and violets. The cost of the
bunches used on thi.s occasion is vari-
ously estimated at .$25,000 to $40,000.
There were never before so many
dinners preceding the cotillion and flow-
ers were used profusely at all of these.
I'^very one of the stores was able to
take care of all orders, but it was neces-
sary to work all day Sunday. One re-
tailer alone had 245 bunches. Colonial
bouquets were discouraged as much as
possible, on account of the time they
take to make. From a flower stand-
point, this was tlio best cotillion that
was ever held, and it is one of the best
predictions of the part flowers are to
play this winter in the social life of

What J. HORACE McFARLAND
writes about
MELROSINE
Gentlemen : —
Having had a try-out of the substance now called
"Melrosine" before it was put on the market, I was impressed
by the fact that it really did kill rose-bugs, and I don't know
anything else that will do the same service without also killing
the roses. Then later, after it had been introduced, I saw it
being effectively used not only to put the rose-bug out of busi-
ness on roses, but to do the same when they had attacked rho-
dodendron flowers in a prominent garden near Philadelphia. I
keep it on hand, and would not hesitate a fraction of a second
about putting it in use as soon as the bugs appeared, because I
believe it is the best available remedy for this nasty pest.
Yours truly,

Greenhouse Heating
Subscribers are invited to write the
editor of this department with regard to
any details of greenhouse heating that
are not understood. When information
is desired regarding the capacity of boil-
ers, or the amount of radiation required
for a greenhouse, the needed temperatures
should be stated in the inquiry, as well
as the amount of glass in the side walls,
and the dimensions and general arrange-
ment of the greenhouses. It is often help-
ful, also, to have a sketch showing the
location of the houses.
COAL PRODUCTION HIOH.
Greenhouse men welcome the reports
of the increase in coal supply and a
consequent downward tendency in prices.
Recovering from the Thanksgiving day
depression, production of soft coal
during the week of December 4 rose
to a now maximum for the year,
according to the United States geologi-
cal survey. The total output, includ-
ing lignite and coal coked, is estimated
at 12,757,000 net tons.
Not only was this the highest mark
attained during the present season, but
it has been surpassed only four times
during the period over which reports of
weekly production extend. The four
exceptions were the weeks ending July
10 and 24 and September 25, 1918, and
October 23, 1919. The record was made
possible by the railroads, which fur-
nished empty cars sufficient to load
232,340 cars of soft coal, an achievement
the more creditable because Monday,
November 29, the priority in the use of
open top cars was withdrawn com-
pletely.
Production of bituminous coal during
the first 287 working days of the last
four years has been as follows in net
tons:
1917, 516,172,000; 1918, 545,8.58,000;
1919, 425,291,000; 1920, 512,431,000.
A 3-SECTION HOUSE.
How many feet of 2-inch pipe will it
take to heat my greenhouse with hot
w.nter? It measures in floor space
50x60 feet. What size of pipe should I
use for the lead from the boiler and how
much should it be reduced f The boiler
has forty 2-inch flues, six feet eight

be wasted.
And it need not be wasted. The Morehead Back-to-
Boiler System will save it for you by returning it to
the boiler at temperatures as high as 400 degrees
Fahrenheit. It reduces coal consumption an average
of 20%. At the same time your steam will be
"drier" and more efficient; your production speeded
up and profits increased.

Do you think this is large enough?
R. G. S.— O.
The sketch shows three even-span
houses with a length of fifty feet, and
occupying a space sixty feet wide. If
the houses are drawn to scale, we judge
the widths to be approximately fifteen,
twenty and twenty-five feet. The outer
walls are seven feet eleven inches in
height, but we cannot determine the
amount of glass they contain, if any.
Neither is the temperature desired in
the houses stated, or any way of dis-
tinguishing them.
If an average tem2)crature of 60 de-
grees will answer for the three houses,
the boiler described above should be
amply large. We should run a 3-inch
flow ]jipe under eacli of the plates, or
gutters, except on the outer wall of the
narrow house, where a flow jiipe with a
diameter of two and a half inches will
.'inswer. Four 2-inch return pipes will
answer for this wall, and seven may be
used on the other outside wall. Twelve
returns will be required on the posts
between the 25-foot and 20-foot houses,
and nine returns between the 20-foot
and 15-foot houses. Tliese estimates are
for a night temperature of 60 degrees
when the mercury is 10 degrees below
zero outside. If 50 degrees will answer
in the houses, the number of the returns
should be respectively three, five, nine
and seven. The above estimates are for
walls without glass below the level of
the plates. When there is glass below
the level of the pl.ntes, there should be
an addition;il 2-inch return on the outer
walls for every two feet of glass.
To connect the flow pipes with the
boiler, use two 3%-ineh leads. When
the flow pipe for the first house has been
taken off, the main leading to the other
flow main may be reduced to three

ADVANCE CO., RICHMOND, IND.
SALT liAKE CITY, UTAH.
The Market.
Prospects for a record-breaking Christ-
mas are exceptionally bright. Potted
plants, such as cyclamens, Cincinnati
and Melior begonias, cherries and poin-
settias, are in abundance and early or-
ders point to larger plant orders this
Christmas than ever before. Prices are
just about the same as last year and the
stock was never better.
Mild weather for a month past has
hurried the rose crop, and some of the
stock will come a little early, but, never-
theless, a larger cut than last year is
looked for. Carnations are looking fine,
and a big cut of these is expected if
weather conditions are favorable. Paper
Whites will be in large supply, but there
is no doubt that they will clean up well.
Sweet peas will be scarce and the price
will be high.
Business last week was fairly good, on
account of several funeral orders. Mums
are still arriving in small quantities,
but the quality in most cases is poor.

Mr. W. L. Ferguson, Smiths Falls, Ontario, un-

in regard to our petunias:
"Last year I purchased Petunia seed from you.
I think every seed germinated and the blooms
were the finest ever seen in this part of Canada.
Only about 8 per cent of the plants could be
classed as common. I want more of the same
(]uallty each year."
Mr. Rudolf Nagel, Lancaster, Pa., under date
of Dec. 14th, 1919, writes us:
"I had last year Just a few of your petunias,

them. They surely came up to your claim and

The Market.
The market was quite active last
week, the wholesale houses cleaning up
every day. There was a considerable
shortage of carnations, lilies and roses.
Eoses and carnations are up to the win-
ter's standard of quality, but there are
not sufficient to meet the demand, es-
pecially of the better varieties.
Some good stevia, calendulas and yel-
low daisies are arriving. Orchids con-
tinue to be scarce. Paper White narcissi
are plentiful. Pussy willows are also an
added feature of the market, and mistle-
toe and winter berries have arrived.
Boxwood, smilax and ground pine are
the active greens at present, as all
florists are preparing for the holiday
rusli. Business in general has been re-
ported good.
Various Notes.
Joseph Marks, of A. Henderson & Co.,
Chicago, was a visitor in Pittsburgh
last week.

Ka far, we have nrvcr ijceii ahlc \u answer dftiniteiy. About all we can say
is that houses put up \\\a score of years a!,'o are like Johnny Walker, "st;!!

If after ID years a house i^ still so i-'ooil, it will pay to take it down and
rebuild it. then it kind of looks as if the iron frame must be {,'ood lor at least
another two score vears.

With YOU the question is —
which kind?
Of course you're going to build early next spring— indications are that 1921 is going to be a really
good year for Florists. And it's fair to assume that you know just about what you're going to
build — the number, type and size of houses.
So, if you haven't already decided on the AGMCO make, the question you'll be turning over in
your mind is —
which kind ?
When considering this question it would be well to look into the AGMCO construction, and to bear
in mind the reduction of approximately O^o/ \r\ TiripP^N

Of course you are very busy just now before Christmas, but
while you are resting a moment and catching your breath,
cast a glance at the above section of a 36-ft. greenhouse.
It is of pipe frame construction with Louisiana gulf red
cypress framework. The pipe superstructure is all joined
together with "Bolted through" galvanized steel fittings
that cannot break or pull off.
We feel sure that if we only had the opportunity to Show
You the many advantages of this style of construction, you
would place your order with us in a hurry.

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

New Year's
LOWERS
We are proud of the high quality of the Roses we are furnishing on all orders
for the Holidays this year. We could not fill more than a small part of the orders
offered us for Christmas, but we expect to be able to fill all orders for Roses in
full for New Year's.
We quote the following prices with the assurance that if the market turns out to be less firm than we
now expect, we will give our customers the benefit of any fall in prices that may occur.
Buy Direct From the Grower -. —
You always get fresh flowers and an even run of stock. Our
Russell and Columbia

as the goose flower. Not many windows
may be copied precisely by florists in
general, but all good windows atford
helpful hints, or at least may stir flo-
rists' thoughts and stimulate their in-
\entive faculties.
There is reason to believe that the
goose flower now under consideration
accomplished its purpose. As the illus-

way, is Aristolochia gigas, or Aristo-
lochia grandiflora Sturtevantii. One of
my sisters is Aristolochia Sipho, the
Dutchman's pipe; perhaps you have
seen her. Others of my sisters are:
A. cymbifera, the boat-shaped one; A.
ornithocephala, bird's head; A. tricau-
data, three-tailed, and A. ridicula — you
know what that means. Miss A. ridicula
has two long lobes which are said to
resemble a donkey's cars. Yes, we're
a queer lot and I'm the queerest of
all.
Just an Overgrown Calyx.
"As a flower," tJie goose went on,
"I am badly defective as well as freak
ish. I have no corolla, though the
corolla, or system of petals, would usu-
ally be considered the one absolutely
essential part of a flower — almost the
whole flower. In common, popular
opinion, the corolla is the flower. But
I am just an overgrown calyx, a long,
huge, grotesquely twisted calyx, ending
in a yard-long tail, by means of which
I am now clinging to my support, as a
monkey might suspend itself by its
tail from the branch of a tree. How-
ever, nature did not intend my tail for
such a purpose; this use of it is the in-
vention of the window decorator who
placed me here.
"But allow me, ladies and gentle-
men," the goose flower pleaded, "to
draw your attention to those other
flowers. Look, for instance, at that
pink rose. Note its exquisite fineness
of texture, its grace of form, its rich-
ness and delicacy of color. Is there
anything else, aside from flowers, that
is so nearly a perfect embodiment of
beauty? And its fragrance —
"My fragrance! My fragrance, did
you say? Did you really mean to in-
sult me? My fragrance, you know —
or perhaps you don 't know — is called,
at the best, an odor. That's what polite
people call it, but other people give it
a much worse name.
The Ctoose Flower Wins.
"Say, you good-looking, well-dressed
man, are you going away without buy-
ing any flowers? Do you mean to ad-
mit that you were attracted, fascinated,
almost captivated, by a misshapen od-
dity like me, but have no interest in
those other flowers, those most exquisite
specimens of nature's handiwork? Ah!
You have changed your mind and are
coming into the store. I thought you
looked like the right sort. And there
are two or three other people following
your example."
Thus the goose flower sold other
flowers all day, and several successive
days, before being replaced by another
window display.
If any florist wishes to grow a few
vines of the goose flower, he should plant
them in a bed of good, rich loam, in a
warm house where they can be con-
veniently trained up pillars, rafters or
a trellis. As a rule, they do not bloom
until they have grown to a consider-
able height. They are easily propagated
by means of cuttings taken from well
matured wood in early spring.
at Washington in 1905 and having served
as treasurer from 1910 until his demise.
Through his wholesale business at Buf-
falo and other trade connections in that
section he became still better known
locally and was universally respected
and liked. So his trade friends were
shocked at his death at the early age of
46, when he succumbed as a result of
heart failure while attending the Demo-
cratic national convention at St. Louis
in 1916. So high was their regard for
him that they wished to erect a suitable
memorial, which took the form of the
stone shown in the illustration on this
page. The inscription reads, "William
V. Kasting, 1870-1916," and below,
"Laura A., His Wife, 1879-1912." On
the bronze tablet affixed below is the
following testimonial: "Erected by
the Florists of America as a mark of our
love and esteem and that his noble char-
acter may be held in perpetual honor. ' '
KASTINO'S MONUMENT.
By most members of the trade the
name of William F. Kasting is not only
well remembered, but remembered with
esteem and affection. As an officer of
the Society of American Florists ho had,
at the time of his death, in 1916, served
more years than any other person up to
that time, having been elected president

fore the war, are described a* follows by
Consul General Henry H. Morgan, at
Brussels:
"In 1913 Belgium exported 40,559,441
kilos of plate glass valued at 30,465,967
francs, and 205,561,684 kilos of ordinary
window glass valued at 47,279,187 francs.
Exports of manufactured glass products
in 1919 amounted to 123,842,117 francs.
In December, 1919, resumption had
reached eighty-one per cent of pre-war
activity, with fifty-nine glass-making
establishments employing 22,785 men as
compared with 28,149 before the war.
"The cost of manufacture has greatly
increased, being now about six times
what it was in 1914. Prices of raw mate-
rials have tripled and then quadrupled,
while the price of labor has gone up
150 per cent or more. Lack of coal hin-
dered output for a time, but there is
now prospect of being able to light more
furnaces.
"The demand for plate and window
glass has been extraordinary. While
orders have been received from all over
the world, France has taken a consider-
able portion of the window glass for us'
in the devastated regions, and th<
United States has bought a large amoun
of plate glass and sought more. Th<
market for plate glass remains good
but that for window glass has been af
fected recently by the price-cutting'
wave and notably by competition from
glass factories in Japan."
EXPBESS COMPANIES CAN JOIN.
The interstate commerce commission
December 20 in Washington granted an
thority for permanent consolidation of
the transportation business and proper-
ties of the Adams, American, Wells-
Fargo and Southern Express companies
into the American Eailway Express Co.
The commission said it was its belief
that the public would best be served by
one consolidated company, serving all
lines, with equal rates.
The permit was based on an applica-
tion filed by the four express companies
last March.
The commission divided on the ques-
tion. Commissioners McChord and Meyer

solidation, this dissenting report as-
serted, "creates a monopoly" and "de-
stroys every semblance of competition."
COAL MABKET i&AKS.
Price of Steam Ooal:Balved.
The bottom dropped oh^oi the whole-
sale market for steam coftl i^ the cen-
tral west December 21,^^^nging about
the most radical reducti^ recorded in
years. In many ingtaniees the reduc-
tions cut the price iahalf.
The mild weather was given as the
principal reason at a meeting of the
Hlinois Coal Operators' Association in
Chicago December 21. Other leading
operators said that the reduction was
caused by the shutting down of fac-
tories all over the country.
Bange of Prices.
The poorest grade of steam coal has
dropped from around $2 to 83 cents a
ton within the last few days. - Better
grades which have been selling for
from $7 to $8 a ton are now begging
for purchasers at from $3.50 to $4. Coal
which sold for from $8 to $10 a few
months ago can be had now for $3 a ton.
' ' There is a greater supply than a de-
mand," said George W. Eeed, vice-
president of the Peabody Coal Co. "In-
dustries have shut down all over the
country. They have no further use for
fuel. Conditions are beginning to read-
just themselves. I would say that the
drop in the price of coal is simply an
indication of business getting down to
normal competitive prices.
For Direct Purchases.
"The high reconsigning and demur-
rage charges have also helped to bring
about a surplus supply. We wouldn't
think of sending out a carload of coal
unless it is purchased direct. Then
there are those who have purchased the
entire output of mines for the year.
The longer they hold the more they lose
and the slimmer are their chances for
disposing of their goods at any price."
Several operators declared that the
coal was being piled up at the mines,
where full production is in progress
without a sign of purchasers.

RETAIL STORE MANAGEMENT
WHAT THE LEADERS IN THE TRADE ARE DOING
DELIVERING THE GOODS.
Meeting the En Route Problems.
It lias been noted tliat florists' motor
eliicles are at once distinguishable
rom the rest of the trucks on the roads.
Vppearance to tlic man in the street has
leen considered, so that the advertis-
ing value alone is worth the price of
'he special painting, decorations, etc.
In the larger cities the florists often
•'Hiploy a characteristic color, as, for
■xaniple, one large New York firm uses
liolet, another blue. It is of great
value to have the delivery car so
I>ainted, because it is in keeping with
the tone of the business. It reflects
the character of the goods carried.
The problems of flower and plant de-
livery are not the easiest to solve. The
florist handles highly perishable goods;
he must make quick deliveries; his
plants come in all sizes and can not
be packed in boxes so as to be easily
loaded. Plants must be so transported
that they will not be injured; hence a
greater amount of care must be used by
the driver and the truck body must be
so designed as to avoid damage.
Pot Holders.
When the truck is being driven over
a rough city street the body sways and
bounces up and down, the tendency
being for the plants in i>ots to be
thrown against one another. This is
obviously ruinous. One member of the
trade uses a body in which there are
three liorizontal tiers of shelves. All
heavy j)lants in pots are placed on the
floor of the body. In order tliat they
may rest upright, he uses small wooden
lioxes of standard sizes into which the
pots can be fitted. These wooden boxes
have a large bottom area, so that they
;ire not likely to tip over. Another
florist has arranged one jtortion of the
body floor exclusively for flowers in
I)ots and has arranged clamps to Imhl
the pots. These clamps are made espe
eially for that ])urpose and gri]> the ])ot
firmly in four ])Iaces. Another metlioil
is to use parallel strips of wood across
tlie body about four inches from the
floor, .six or s<>ven sets of such parallel
strijiH are used, e;u'li set being a little
farther apart than the next, so that all
sizes of pots can be acconimod;iteil.
In order that all sizes of jilants can
be taken care of, bodies should be so ar-
ranged that one small portion near the
front or rear occtipies the full height of
the body. Where sliding shelves are
used and are maile the full length of
the body, the size of plants to l)e car-
ried is restricted by the lieight between
shelves.
Keeping the Right Temperature.
One of the diftii-ulties connected with
the delivery of cut flowers is that of
jirotecting them while in transit. Se
\-er(' colli fur a short jwriod will ruin
them. Kxtreiiie heat is bad. In cold
weather it is necessary to keep out tiie
cold, so that when flowers are kept in
the wagon for hours they may be de-
livered in a fresh condition. An ex-
haust type heater installed in the body
of the truck will not do, because gas
leakage, however slight, damages the
flowers and may i)erhaps kill them. One
florist has arranged to utili/A' the heat
in the driver's compartment. This
usually is warm and when it is enclosed
th(> heat is allowed to circulate tiiroiigh
the l:>ody sullliciently to keeji the flowers
at an even and jjrotecting temperature.
If exhaust lit>at is to be used, the inside
jiiping should be free from any coimum--
tion. One coil of ])ipe within the body
nuiy be found suflicient, but the line
should include a control of some sort.
There should be a thernu)meter within
sight of the driv<'r, so that he may kee](
the temjierature as near constant as
possible.
On Time and On Record.
Flower .•ind ]>lant deliveries, unlike
many others, must be m.ade often at a
definite time. An order may be re-
ceived to deliver a funeral jiiece at ex-
actly a J), m., and nut befon'. Conse-
• juently it becomes necessary to liavi'
delivery wagons always in good condi-
tion and to have drivers who c.'iii ap
l)reciate the value of time.
In order to kee]) ;in accurate record
of the calls, deliveries, etc., the ]irinte(l
forms of the florist should call for the
following information: Time of recei[it
of order and by whom received, name
and address, (|Uanliiy and kind of
llovvers or plants, time (d" departure of
truck, time of delivery of flowers, time
delivery was recjuesteil. One retailer
has a sjiecial pad for telephone calls.
This pad contains the foregoing itcniS
and eaidi order is made out in duplicate,
the dujdicate Ijeing handed to tht; drivev
of the wagon, who enters the inforni.'t-
tion in his deliverv book.

HOW OTHERS HELP US.
Slogan Brifigs Aid.
"Nothing succeeds like success," said
the successful financier. The latest ex-
jimple of how successful success may be
is the most famous trade slogan in
America, ' ' Say It with Flowers. ' ' That
slogan is a success. When it was first
put in print, it attracted immediate at-
tention from the trade. Before long it
attracted much attention from the pub-
lic. The business world in general for
some time tried in various ways to
"get in on the eats." The public was
advised to say it with chocolates, candy,
jewelry, or anything else that seemed
appropriate. The mayor of Baltimore,
Md., went so far as to suggest "Say It
with Oysters," to advertise that city's
distinctive industry.
The recent advertising campaigns in
daily newspapers, the holding of "Say
It with Flowers" weeks at various
cities and the display of the slogan
prominently in every florist's window
have won the battle. The slogan is in
no more danger and belongs to the flo-
rists for good. Moreover, several in-
dustries, in advertisements, quote the
florists' slogan in order to attract at
tention to their wares.
Iceman Lends Hand.
The advertisement of the Knicker-
bocker Ice Co., reproduced on this page,
which appeared in all the New York
papers recently, is an excellent example.
In order to benefit in any way from the
much advertised slogan, this firm was
forced to give as much publicity to tlie
florists' trade as to its own products.
The ice company is not a»soUtary ex-
ample. A haberdashery store, one of a
large chain of thi^ Brill Bros, stores,
recently enlarged itg> quarters on Broad-
way in New York city. A sign twenty-
five feet long over the entrance read:
"We 'Say It with Flowers.' Welcome
to our additional floor." And they did
"Say It with Flowers." Max Schling
said it for tliem, anyway, with the ef-
fect sliown in the illustration on the next
page. The sign was 9x25 feet and the
letters were made of single beech leaves.
The flowers used were bronze chrysan-
themums and Jap lanterns, or Physalis
Franchetii. The flowers were replaced
with fresh ones several times during
the period of the official opening of the
new quarters. How much publicity sucli
a display gives the florists' trade may
be imagined by the reader from the il-
lustration. Such advertisements are
florists' advertisements pure and simple,
with somebody else paying the bills.
Serves as Sermon Text.
The slogan is so well known, indeed,
that even clergymen make reference to
it in order to attract attention to their
subject. "Say It with Flowers — Not
always," was the title of a sermon pub-
lished in the Christian World, of Cleve-
land, O., recently. The sermon, after
referring to the fragrance of the mes-
sage flowers bring to the sick room, con-
tinued: "Some essential portions of the
gospel cannot be 'Said with Flowers.'
Other parts of the gospel cannot be said
without flowers. A flowery preacher?
Every preacher should be that at times.
If he speaks truth truthfully, he will
sometimes ' Say It with Flowers. ' ' '
So surely and thoroughly has our
slogan become a part of language and
life that by its use, constantly and in
many places, other businesses and other
])rofessions are advertising for us.
Verily, our national publicity campaign
performed its task well in providing
florists with this slogan.
CLEVELAND, O.
The Market.
Market conditions last week were
rather poor. Business has been drag-
ging in al; lines, and the consensus is
' Say it
with Flowers"
Everybody loves bouquets — of
flowers or kind words. A kind
word bouquet sent to Knicker-
bocker says that a patron riding
down Fifth Avenue noticed Knick-

three flow^er shops. The patron
thinks Knickerbocker, in keeping
flowers sweet and fresh, plays an
important part in "Saying it with

that business this year is too uncertain
to put in heavy stocks. Retailers hesi-
tate to buy this year because of the
steady increase- in the number of unem-
ployed, which directly affects the mar-
ket for flowers. Because of this uncer-
tainty, retailers are at a loss to know
what to buy and in what quantities. It
is generally believed that a last-minute
rush will mark the closing of the Christ-
mas day trade. Stock of all kinds, with
the exception of roses and carnations,
has been moving slowly. Reports from
the retailers state that Christmas sup-
plies are selling better than cut flowers
at present. A shortage in variety, as
well as in quantity, is the market report
on staple lines.

The Market.
Stock for Christmas is scarce. Prices,
.'IS usual, are high, but not so high as
had been anticipated.
The dark days have caused a short-
age in carnations and sweet peas. Car-
nations have been bringing $8 and $10
j)er hundred, but are ranging from $10
to $15 for Christmas. Roses are far
from plentiful and are quoted at from
$12 to $40 per hundred. Paper Whites
have been abundant, but move slowly at
$4 and $6 per hundred. The holiday
price will probably be $8 and $10 and,
because of the shortage of other stock,
these may be in greater demand. Stevia
has also been appearing in large quan-
tities, but meets with a better sale.
A few good and some inferior chrys-
anthemums are still seen, but they are
not moving rapidly. Orchids and val-
ley are available, but high in price.
The latter is bringing $15 per hundred.
Bouvardia is a newcomer to the mar-
ket and brings $1.25 per dozen. Holi-
day dances and parties will cause these
smaller flowers to be in greater demand
than heretofore. Calendulas are also in
evidence and are popular for corsage
work. Artificial stock has been in good
demand. The Christmas made-up work,
such as baskets, wreaths, etc., is not in
unusual demand, although some of the
more elaborate pieces have been selling.
The various department stores, drug
stores, etc., have some baskets and

DAHLIA TXJBERS DRY UP.
I have read your dahlia notes in re
cent issues with much interest and also
the dahlia advertisements, some of
which I am answering. Please tell me
how to prevent my tubers from harmful
drying after I cut up my clumps. I
shall begin cutting up the clumps about
February 1, separating the individual
tubers, which will not be sold or planted
for nearly four months. Cutting up
means drying up, particularly as re-
gards the bud-bearing crown end of the
tubers. How can I store the separated
tubers so as to prevent this?
C. B.— Pa.
A cold and dry storage cellar or shed
is essential. A temperature between 36
and 40 degrees will be found satisfac-
tory, and as little fire heat as possible
should be used to maintain the tempera-
ture. After cutting, if there is any
likelihood of the divided tubers shriv-
eling, they should be covered with some
material. Cocoanut fiber refuse has
been considered excellent for this pur-
pose, but other materials should answer
just as well, such as fine sawdust, fine
leaf-mold, screened peat and sand. It
will not matter if these materials are
not absolutely dust dry; in fact, a slight
moisture is considered beneficial rather
than otherwise; even in a cool cellar
this moisture will disappear before long.

FUNGUS ON HYDRANGEAS?
We are mailing under separate cover
two plants, hydrangica and hibiscus,
which seem to be much affected by some
disease. This blight or fungoid dis-
ease has spread rapidly over our agera-
tums, heliotropes and all soft-wooded
stock. We sprayed with a strong solu-
tion of Bordeaux mixture, but it seems
to remain on the hydrangeas in a cool
house. We shall be thankful for any
suggestions as to what it is and what
remedies there are. J. E. J. — Ga.
The foliage was all dried up on the
liydrangeas and hibiscus shoots upon
their arrival and it was impossible to
tell what your trouble might be. If the
trouble is fungoid, a spray such as you
liave applied would seem to be the best
possible remedy. I should suggest a fur-
ther application of either Bordeaux mix-
ture or Fungine. Ordinarily hydrangeas
are free from attacks of this kind, except
for mildew. Cold drafts and care-
less watering will cause the latter. Keep
a drier and more buoyant atmosphere;
water carefully and dampen the foliage
of the affected plants as little as you can,
and your trouble will gradually pass.

PAINT, NOT THRIPS.
A short time ago I wrote you about
our crop of cyclamens in 4, 5 and 6-inch
pots. The earliest of them were show-
ing an abundance of buds, but as soon
as the buds appeared above the foliage
they became wrinkled and showed brown
and black decayed spots. When the
buds opened the petals soon faded and
looked as if they had been scorched.
.The foliage, however, was in as per-
fect condition as I have ever seen. We
were in doubt as to the cause and
thought thrips were possibly the cause.
I have decided to write you and tell
you what I discovered to be the cause
of the damage to our cyclamens. A few
days after 1 sought your advice on the
subject,! was shocked to see every bloom
on a nice crop of Primula obconiea
suddenly withered, and also some snaj)-
dragon and geranium blooms in the ad-
joining section similarly affected.
I could not believe that thrips worked
this fast against a weekly spraying of
diluted nicotine on the cyclamens. After
some investigation, I discovered that
the gas or fumes which had been rising
from the hot water pipes beneath the
bench upon which the cyclamens were
growing were doing the damage. The
pipes had been painted during "July,
while the bench was removed and later
replaced by a new one. It was evi-
dent that the wrong kind of paint was
used.
We removed the cyclamens and primu-
las into another house, and now every
new bud opens into a perfect flower, but
only one-half the crop will be in bloom
for holiday sales.
William Van Langcndon.
OTHER SIDE OF QUESTION.
I have received The Review for De-
cember 9 and notice that certain indi-
viduals are still working to do away
with Quarantine 37. I am a potato
fjrower, this year growing 5,000 bushels.
As you know, potatoes enter this coun-
try duty free. Last season, owing to
short crop, loss by rot and cold weather,
those fortunate enough to have a good
crop made money, in spite of the fact
that over 39,000,000 bushels were im-
ported during last season.
This year we liavc a bumper crop,
grown with liigh-priced fertilizer and
insecticides and liighly paid help, so
that we have been offered from 75 cents
to $1.40 per bushel for selected No. 1
Long Island stock, with tlie market from
$1.15 to $1.25 since October 25, f. o. b.
loading station, with talk of a decline
after the holidays. Fertilizer for the
season of 1921 is no clicaper, and some
companies arc charging 25 to 50 cents
a ton more than in 1920. It costs from
$60 to $61 per ton, cash in advance, for
complete 5-8-4 mixed goods.
According to good authority, potatoes
can be bought for 40 cents per bushel,
delivered at the vessel 's side, in various
ports in Europe. Many of the growers
who cannot grow a large crop per acre,
or have failure from rot, are growing
at a loss at $1.25. A movement is on
foot again to put an import duty on
potatoes and thus help the growers.
Now, as I see it, if Quarantine 37 is
removed it will place the American bulb
growers in the same boat as the potato
growers.
I have nearly 1,000,000 planting stock
gladiolus bulbs and expect to plant
bulblets enough for 500,000 another
year. The other day one of the largest
growers on Long Island, N. Y., said
that present prices were none too high
to meet the cost of production and
marketing. Last July the largest grower
on the island was heard to remark that
the price of bulbs had to advance.
Three years ago a prominent gladiolus
grower said that No. 1 America gladioli
had been bought in Europe for $2 per
thousand. With the present rate of ex-
change and Europe looking for a mar-
ket, it seems to me that stock will come
down much below the cost of production.
I realize the fact that much stock
cannot be grown here, at least not with-
out a large expenditure of time and
money. But, from what little I can
read, it seems to me that the question
BEQONIAS FROM SEED.
Can Chatelaine begonias be grown
from seed and, if so, what is the best
method for starting them?
J. J. W.— 111.
This useful begonia comes readily
from both seed and from cuttings. In
the case of seed, sow in pans well
drained and containing leaf-mold and
sand. Put the rough material over the
crocks and screen the upper surface
until it is quite fine. Water through a
fine rose and then sow the small seeds
evenly. Dust a little fine sand over
them, but do not water. Place in a
warm, moist house; put a sheet of glass
over the pans, and cover with paper to
protect them from the sun until the seed-
lings germinate. Be sure not to allow
the surface to dry out and always water
with extreme care, so as not to wash the
surface. C. W.

GHENT GROWERS FACE FAILURE.
Quarantine 37 One Cause.
In 1914 Ghent and its suburbs formed
one of the greatest horticultural centers
in the world. There were about 1,500
separate establishments, covering an
area of about 1,125 acres, with an esti-
mated property value of 55,000,000
francs, or $10,615,000, states Consul Gen-
eral Henry H. Morgan, at Brussels.
Azaleas, rhododendrons, palms, or-
chids and other plants of a similar na-
ture were cultivated, nearly all for ex-
port. The value of this exportation
amounted to 14,000/}00 francs, $2,702,-
000, of which one-fifth was sent to the
United States. Besides the laborers
needed for building and repairing green-
houses and heating establishments, there
were 10,000 M'orknien employed.
The industry owed its prosperity not
only to the work and zeal of the horticul-
turist, but also to the efforts of the Syn-
dicate of Belgian Horticulturists and the
aid of the Belgian government in pro-
tecting the interests of plant growers,
creating new markets and facilitating
exportation.
The j)resent situation is most disas-
trous. During the five years of the war
tlierc was practically no exportation.
Many of the greculiouses were destroyed
by the German arm.v, and other estab-
lishments in the suburbs of Ghent were
badly damaged during the allied advance
preceding the armistice. Whereas be-
fore 1914 Germany had been the largest
buyer of plants, in 1919 this trade had
been obliterated by the war and the sub-
sequent low purchasing value of the
German mark.
Embargo Kills Hope.
In spite of all these disasters, after the
armistice the horticulturists hoped to
build up their industry, but at the end
of 1918 a new disaster arose in the pass-
ing of the American law placing an em-
bargo on all plants coming into the
United States from Belgium.
In spite of the fact that Belgian plant
shippers are willing to reinforce the
plant inspection at Ghent and even to
pay all expenses of a severe inspection
on the arrival of plants in New York,
Ihe embargo still stands. The latest dis-
aster was an embargo placed by France,
April, 1920, on the importation of all
live plants, fruits and flowers. Thanks
to the intervention of the Syndicate of
Belgian Horticulturists and the aid of
the government, this restriction was re-
moved May 19, 1920, but it had already
done great harm.
Because of all this, it is not strange
that several establishments have been
sold. One auctioneer of Ghent has sold
155 establishments since the armistice.
Several of the best firms have been
obliged to stop business. In one case
a large installation in the suburb
was sold to a company manufacturing
electrical material, and another estab-
lishment was bought bj' an automobile
manufacturer. Unless there is a change
for the better soon, the horticultural in-
dustry of Ghent will disappear in large
part.

ire low; the French call our native coun-
try 'Pays Bas, ' i. e., 'Low liands. '
llspecialiy where the Holland bulbs are
;rown is the surface of the fields below,
i';ir below, sea level. Add to this the
i;ict that the narrow strip of land ada]it-
ihle for bulb culture lies about three
■I' lies from the seashore and one will
'•adily understand that the water level
lUst be high and the ground moist. The
limate is not at all cheery, either. There
ire many years that one has jiractically
' 0 summer in Holland. The air is moist
nd foggy, anil anyone who has lieen in
(olland and lived there for any length of
ime knows the great number of rainy
'.•lys each year. All growers of gladioli
:ive learned how dctrimiMital to s[>eedy.
'■althy growth is a continual overdose of
Moisture. By it, the bulbs, great or
mall, are checked in their growth and
re more subject to disease than under
■ss moist weather conditions. How well
I, we remember that when a summer was
xceiitiiinally cold and rainy we would
lid more bulbs diseasi^l with 'zwart
■d,' i. e., black rot. than usual! There
■ ere many varieties which tendi'<l to dis
•ise so badly th;it we had to cut them
iim our stock list. Among tiiem arc tlic
ell known varieties. War, ranaiiia. Mrs.
rancis King, Olory of Ibdlanil, Mrs.
rank Pendleton, etc. And w c roubi
c(> no other caus(> of tlie^c inuibics tliiiii

"However, this is not the nnly reason
"1- our saying farewell to our native
"iintry and sailing for th(> United
"•fates. The two years during which we
,rew our gladioli in Mictiigan made us
■ware of the many ads .intakes over our
"rmer strite of existence and wnrk. r)tic
great disadvantage in Holland is the
scarcity of land, causing high rent. It
is not at all uncommon for a grower to
pay one florin, eijual to lit cents, rent for
114 sijuare feet of soil. When we
arrived here and saw lows of glailioli
lilanted three feet ajiart we raised
our hands in amazement. 'Such wjiste
of land!' we thought. In Ibdliiiid it
is just the re\erse. .\ii open strip
of land e(|ual to a row of gladioli is
allowed between rows of bulbs three
feet wide. All cultivating must there
fore be done by hanil, crawling on hand
and knees through a, narrow ]iatli a
foot wide. The American method h;is
three advantages o\'er the Holland way.
I'"irst, it provides for easier and quicker
cultivation, since it can be done by
horse; secondly, it is therefore cheaper
as far as labor exjienses are concerned.
and, tliiidly, It ;:i\es the (ilants more soil
and .•lir .•iioiiiid tliciii to .|r;iw those sub-
stances I'roiii which they greatly need for
s]ieed>' and \ i^orous growth.
"'J'liose who lia\'<^ had some ex|ieiience
with the growing of gladjidi know that
one cannot grow them on ilie same piece
of land year afti'r year. "Irowers that
do so will find that their stock becomes
fearfully niixcl, bcc.-nise many of the
biilblets left in the ground cfune u]'
subseipiently and are dug ujt with the
true stock-. Ami'iica. with its ample re
sources of land, solves this problem.
One can abandon the land where one has
grown gladioli for two years and start
anew on virgin soil without great loss
or expense, retaining tliiiv stock abso-
lutely true to name.

and low water level such as we found in
Michigan! In spring there is enough
rain to keep the ground suitable for
planting, giving the dry bulbs enough
moisture to commence rooting. The
beautiful summers provide ample time
for weeding and cultivating, making the
rows of dark green gladioli grow by the
day, while in fall one does not have to
dig the bulbs out of a muddy soil, as we
had to do so often in Holland.
"Summing up all the experience we
gathered the last two years in growing
gladioli in America and comparing it
with the past, we are led to believe that
we can grow our gladioli better and more
economically in America than in Hol-
land, with more ease and less expense."

AT YEAR'S END
The cause of the trouble with tli>
cyclamens is thrips. These pests worl:
down into the crown of the plants, criji
pling the flowers before they have timi
to expand. The best means of fightin-
the pest is by regular sprayings of di

Pleasant Year's Recollections.
With my term as president of the so-
ciety now at an end, I can look back
to an oflSce which has afforded me both
pleasure and pride. A close association
with my brother officers throughout the
year has revealed some earnest and
thorough team-work, resulting in the
great benefit of our society, and my
hearty thanks are tendered to them for
their cooperation and cheerful assist-
ance throughout my administration.
Particularly am I indebted to our secre-
tary, whose cordial assistance has been
at all times available and whose advice
has tended to make my duties pleasant
and my pathway smooth.
To our executive board is due much
credit for their zealous attention to
the many details in the management of
the society's affairs, the extent of which
is only realized when one is called upon
to preside over an annual meeting of
their body, which calls for two days or
more of incessant deliberation, I have
been especially fortunate in having the
advantage of a board whose personnel
included some of the best brains in our
membership.
Thanks Rendered.
I have greatly appreciated the as-
sistance rendered by our state vice-
presidents, who, it would seem to me,
liave this year taken more than an ordi-
nary interest in the society's work. It
is my hope that a continuance of this in-
terest will be manifest in the work of
the appointees of my esteemed succes-
sor in office.
To the members of our standing com-
mittees I extend my most sincere thanks
for their services during the year,
rendered so unselfishly and often at
great sacrifice of time and frequently
at much personal expense. The im-
portance of the work of these commit-
tees cannot, in my opinion, be overesti-
mated.
Lastly, my thanks are duo to those
members who attended the Cleveland
convention last August and helped to
make the gathering the largest in the
history of the society, of which record
I am, naturally, more than proud.
It is my earnest hope that the so-
ciety's aims and objects have been ad-
vanced under my presidency in line
with the advancements made under the
administration of my predecessors in
office, and I bespeak for my successor
the same courtesy of service and co-
operation which has been so liberally
accorded to me during my occupancy of
an office which will ever be considered
by me the greatest honor bestowed by
our industry upon anyone engaged in it.

THRIPS RUIN CYCLAMENS.
We had a fine crop of cyclamens in 4,
5 and 6-inch pots. The earliest of them
are showing an abundance of buds, but
as soon as the buds appear above the
foliage they become wrinkled and show
brown and black decayed spots. When
the buds open, the petals soon fade and
look as if they were scorched. I have
them on a side bench near the glass,
with a little bottom heat at night. I
spray them when the sunshine is warm.
The foliage is in as perfect condition
as I have ever seen. In preparing soil
for their final shifting I put a little
C ANNAS' RESTING PERIOD.
Do canna roots require a long perioci
of rest, or could a clump of a new va-
riety be transferred to a greenhouse
and grown on and dried down only a
short time before planting time in the
spring, without materially weakening
the vitality? H. S. M.— Okla.
Cannas really do not need a resting
period at all, but for the sake of con-
venience we rest them in our latitude,
as we lack a continuance of warm out-
door climate. You can keep clumps
growing all winter if you desire. Can-
nas in pots flower weU. You need not
be alarmed about the vitality of your
plants being lessened if they are not
dried off. We dry them off because they
are handled more easily when dry.

WILTING CHRYSANTHEMUMS.
What is the cause of our Golden
Wedding and Grace Burke mums wilt-
ing when cut? The soil has only a
little rotted cow manure in it. The
blooms are fine, some of the Golden
Wedding measuring eight inches, but
when they are cut and put in water
the}' wither. We run the house about
.'jO to 52 degrees or cooler. We have
never fod them since we planted them;
in fact, we never do. F. & F. — Wis.
were they just run out? Despite
heavier feeding, the foliage was not so
brittle as that of other varieties, which
bloomed splendidly. W. V. L. — Wis.
I am inclined to believe that the
trouble you refer to was due to the
buds being taken too late. To get fine,
large blooms of Marigold, the buds
should be taken by the last week of
August. M. P.
I cannot .account for the chrysanthe-
mums wilting .after being cut, because
according to your letter they have re-
ceived good treatment. It may be that
after cutting, the blooms are placed
where a draft blows on them. This
will cause the trouble. M. P.
BUDS TAKEN TOO LATE.
Our chrysanthemums were benched as
late as July 1 to 5; consequently I
thought that in order to grow big
blooms I ought to feed them more than
formerly. The variety Marigold, being
.a strong grower, seemed to require more
food than the other varieties, so I
applied an extra dressing of sheep
manure to them. When the blooms
matured I was disappointed to find
that Marigold was a failure, the blooms
being only the size of large asters.
Was this caused by overfeeding or
SPRAY INFESTED PLANTS.
I wish to know what is wrong with
the mum and pompon plants that I
have sent you. Would it be safe to
take cuttings from them as they are?
We have given them the same atten-
tion as we did in former years. How-
ever, we purchased some new stock
plants this year, and these may have
been infested. The pompons became in
this condition before they were ready
to cut. Before they were half open
they began to get black under the
blooms. B. & S.— Pa.
The specimens of chrysanthemums
arrived badly infested with thrips and
red spider and I would advise that be-
fore taking any cuttings you thor-
oughly clean them by spraying with
nicotine extract and give close atten-
tion to the general routine of their
care. M. P.

MEMORIAL DAY GERANIUMS.
I should like to know how late I could
propagate geraniums by putting the
cuttings directly in 2i4-inch pots and,
after they have rooted in these, repot-
ting to 4-inch pot3. Or would it be bet-
ter to use 3-inch pots and from there
shift to 4-inch? My stock plants have
been in 4-inch pots set on soil in
the greenhouse during the summer. The
cuttings are in good shape. Can I take
all the cuttings off the old stock, cut-
ting the old plants down to within four
or six inches of the soil, and after
knocking all the earth from the roots,
repot them in 4-inch pots; then, after
breaking (or will they break in this
way?) put them in 5-inch pots for Me-
morial day sales! Will they have time
to get their growth and bloom by May
30 if I get my potting of cuttings done
by mid-December? D. A. M. — Pa.
December is as late as vou can root
geranium cuttings and have them make
good, bushy, 4-inch pot stock for Me-
morial day, but you can root cuttings as
late as March 1 and have nice plants
in 3-inch pots. Trim the leaves quite
closely from your cuttings and make the
loam in the 2i/4-inch pots quite sandy.
Start them on a sunny bench and, if
possible, where heating pipes will afford
a little bottom heat. Give a soaking
watering at the start; then keep them
on the dry side until rooted. Never
give any shade at any time to geranium
cuttings. Indoor cuttings are harder
and much less liable to damp off than
the more succulent ones produced out-
doors. It would be better to shift into
3-inch pots and later into 4-inch.
The stock plants when cut back
should be left until they start to break,
keeping them on the dry side meanwhile ;
then shake them out and put into 4-inch
pots. If necessary, make a further
shift later, or you could probably get
the roots into 3-inch pots and then later
shift into 4-inch. These will make
growth in ample time to produce flowers
for Memorial day. Give them a clean,
sunny liouse and let the atmosphere be
on the dry side for the best results.

PAINTED PIPES TO BLAME.
Almost all of our plants are like the
geranium cutting and foliage I have
sent you. Our begonias, sweet peas and
ferns are likewise infected. Will you
please tell me what causes this infec-
tion? Brown spots appear and then the
plants become brittle and soon die. We
had all the steam pipes painted with
creosote. Do you think that could have
been the cause? C. F. C. — Miss.
I have never met with this trouble
before and I am inclined to believe that
the painted steam pipes are the cause
of your trouble. M. P.
GREEN WORMS ON VIOLETS.
I am sending you some leaves from
my violet plants, which have a small
green worm on them. If possible, I
should like to know how to keep this
pest away. ' H. A. C. — O.
Try spraying with a good nicotine ex-
tract, which should be effective. Direc-
tions for use, giving the proper strengtli
of mixture for application, will be found
on the cans. C. W.
STRAWBERRIES UNDER GLASS.
I have a greenhouse, 20x80 feet, and
should like to know if tlie Marshall
strawberry would do well in solid
benches and what heat it needs. Where
can I buy plants'? J. E. M. — Mo.
I have had no experience in growing
strawberries in solid beds under glass
and have never heard of its being at-
tempted. I doubt if you could make it
.a paying proposition. To achieve suc-
cess it would be necessary to plant at
once, rest the plants in early winter at
a low temperature and start up gradu-
ally. I should say that your house
could be much more profitably employed
with some other crop.
I have grown strawberries for forc-
ing for forty years and I have had al-
most uniform success with them when
grown in 6-inch pots and when they
have had the necessary heat and rest,
placed on shelves or benches in a light
house. Such varieties as the one-time
popular Vicomtesse Hericourt de Thi-
erry, Keen 's Seedling, President, Lan-
ton's Noble, Koyal Sovereign, Nick Oh-
mer and Marshall have all given good
results in America. Marshall still
stands supreme as a forcing strawberry;
it has size, color, flavor and vigor and
is withal free-setting.
I should advise you to try pot culture
and not plant in beds. Pot up now in
3-inch pots and later shift into 6-inch
pots for best success. Careful water-
ing, firm potting, liberal soil and liquid
stimulants when well rooted are neces-
sary to build up strong plants; also the
removal of all runners as they appear.
C. W.
ROT IN CELERY.
Last sunuiior I had much trouble witli
my celery plants turning yellow and
decaying, for which I do not know any
reason. I use an overhead irrigation
system and have well water with a
great deal of iron in it. I planted the
celery about eight inches apart in dou-
ble rows, and these double rows were
about three feet apart. I trust you will
be able to tell me what the trouble is, so
that I shall have better success next
summer. A. D. — S. D.
Celery, as is well known, does well in
a rich soil and an abundant supply of
moisture. Even celery, however, can
be overwatered, as I have found to my
sorrow, particularly where the soil is
stiff and water does not percolate read-
ily. In hot weather soaking celery
from above has its dangers. If the soil
becomes soggy due to poor drainage, or
plants remain wet for a long period
while the temperature is high, trouble is
likely to ensue. I should never water
the celery during the day when the sun-
shine is strong, but rather on a cool,
cloudy day. On plants which you have
boarded or tied up for blanching you
are sure to have rot if plants are wet
for a long period when the temperature
is high. Overhead watering has many
advantages, but, on the whole, conserv-
ing moisture by the constant use of the
cultivator is safer and better. 0. W.

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

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

FLOWERS
For YOUR
NEW YEAR'S TRADE
It will not be safe to count on a large sup-
ply of stock for New Year's — there is every
indication flowers will be scarce throughout
the middle-west, and in unusually great de-
mand. It will be wise to insure a reason-
able supply by placing an order with us
now, with additions to be wired as you
keep on selling.
Amling's will have a good quantity of high
grade flowers of all kinds for New Year's,
but will be strongest on the better grades
of Roses— our cuts had not quite reached
their height for Christmas and will be at
their heaviest in the next few days.
REMEMBER — Ainling's prices never are higher than others
ask IF able to supply an equal grade of goods, [jovver prices
mean inferior stock, inferior service and inferior dependability.

recommend that you push Roses as the most

It is easy to see there will be a big demand
for flowers during January, with no large gen-

crops to come in after Christmas and as a result
shall have much the largest January supply in
the history of this organization — we invite your

do, for the forty-odd men and the six
big trucks were kept busy on the way to
and from the leading Chicago flower
stores.
At the Austin range, in addition to a
large stock of foliage plants for year-
around sale, were three houses of poin-
settias, fine, well colored stock. There
were some splendid peppers and cher-
ries, too. A small stock of araucarias,
as fine as one could wish, was on the
way out, to be replaced Heaven knows
how. The planted baskets showed skill
in selection and expertness in arrange-
ment. In the storage houses were 15,000
lilies ready to fill the emptied benches
for Easter.
At Forest Park, where the atmosphere
is clearer, are more blooming plants.
Here were the famous cyclamens, which
filled three sections 30x300, one 36x300,
and four 20x150. Though having bet-
ter success than most growers with these
plants, Mr. Oechslin noted the trouble
that all cyclamen growers experienced
this year, the cause and cure for which
no one seems to have discovered. Some
splendidlj' colored Patten and Chate-
laine begonias were in excellent shape
for the holiday.
The old houses of the Forest Park
range, three in number, are filled with
clean, healthy Boston ferns, which go
out as soon as they are large enough.
For all sorts of foliage plants Mr. Oechs-
lin reports an exceedingly heavy call
during the autumn.
But the peace brought by Christmas
is short-lived, for the space is immedi-
ately to be filled with stock for Easter,
for spring bedding and for next Christ-
mas. For the latter there are 50,000
cyclamen seedlings coming on. Gera-
niums, ivy, etc., are for spring beddiiiij.
For Easter there are 20,000 roses wait-
ing in a storage shed for bench space.
Spiraeas, hydrangeas and plenty of bulb-
ous stock will also be grown for the big
day of spring. Every square foot of the
two ranges, each containing about 8 ",-
000 feet of glass, is working to makJ
money to meet the high expenses t'ua
grower has today.
Vaxious Notes.
The A. L. Kandall Co. had another
successful auction sale, mostly of furni-
ture, December 18, and many florists
took the opportunity to pick up piece?
for store, ofBce or home.

Decembeb 23, 1920
If tho village board of Niles Center
passes an ordinance the draft of which
was published in the local newspaper,
no more greenhouses can be erected
within the corporate limits of that vil-
lage. A hearing was set for Thursday
evening, December 23, at the board
rooms at Niles Center.
That the general supply of carna-
tions in this market this Christmas does
not exceed half last year's supply is
the opinion of August F. Poehlmann. A
part of the decrease is accounted for
by some reduction in the bench space
given to carnations this season, several
large growers having gone into other
lines, but Mr. Poehlmann thinks the
Christmas shortage is attributable in
greater part to summer and autumn
growing conditions, which brought a
heavy early crop and will bring an-
other a little later, but which left Christ-
mas in between.
Alois Frey returned to his home at
San Fernando, Cal., December 19. He
has large quantities of freesias planted
on his new place and expects to have
close to a million bulbs of his two named
varieties to market next summer.
At his greenhouses, at 5332 Bowman-
ville avenue, Elmer E. Wehrmann had
a good Christmas cut of roses. He has
approximately 24,000 plants of Russell
and Premier and some Sunburst.
John Enders was the recipient of a
signal honor December 18, when he was
elected president of Dearborn Chorus,
an organization known to every Mason.
Why is Sunburst throwing so many
crooked stems this season? Some grow-
ers have the rose 's initial in the neck of
each flower.
Cassimir Gouza was in cities to the
east, as far as Pittsburgh, last week in
the interest of the cut flower depart-
ment of the A. L. Bandall Co.
C. J. Michelsen was able to return
home December 18 for the first night in
more than a month, June having recov-
ered from the attack of scarlet fever
which had kept the family in quaran-
tine.
C. L. Sherer spent several days on
the road last week, for the Chicago
Flower Growers' Association. He vis-
ited several cities between Chicago and
Pittsburgh and found the trade every-
where doing a satisfactory business and
preparing for a big Christmas.
Christmas means nothing to Henry
Wehrmann this year, for at Melrose
Park there are no sweet peas. The dark
weather absolutely cleaned the vines of
buds.
Probably there is no store in Chicago
which enjoys the patronage of people
better able to pay good prices, but Ed-
ward Mallinson, manager of the Flcisch-
man Floral Co., says he deplores high
costs and the resultant high retail
charges. It is his belief that continued
high prices will "kill the game," but
of course he recognizes that growers
still need the money the same as re-
tailers do.
With his lawyer, W. J. Keimel has
been busy revising the primary draft of
the by-laws of the National Flower
Growers' Association, of which he is
president, to put the document in better
legal form. It will stand as adopted at
Cleveland, save that the matter of dues
will be decided upon at the meeting at
Washington January 27.

it returns more money per square foot
of bench than any other sort at the
A. H. Budlong range. Grown in a lim-
ited way, two houses, it has done well
there.
Artificial flowers encroached more
upon the florists' business this Christ-
mas than ever before, in the opinion of
Peter Pearson. He would like to see
drastic measures taken against them in
the trade.
The A. L. Eandall Co. has had a
highly successful year and plans to cele-
brate its conclusion with a dinner, enter-
tainment and dance during the sales-
men's annual convention, to be held
between Christmas and New Year's.
The festivities will occur in the north
dining room of the Palmer House on the
evening of December 30.
Mrs. Henry Arnold met with a serious
accident December 20, at the corner of
State and Lake streets, falling backward
into the basement through an opening in
the sidewalk.
T. E. Waters says the Christmas busi-
ness in supplies has made a splendid
total, but that it resulted in an unusual
amount of work because of the disposi-
tion of the retailers to avoid overstock-
ing; instead of ordering a full supply in
advance, many of them ordered three
or four times as the need developed.
The last-minute orders were notably
numerous.
The Inquiring Reporter, who prints
thumb-nail interviews in one of the daily
papers each day, asked W. F. Schofield,
the North State street retailer, "What
do you think of the Sabbath blue lawst"
Mr. Schofield 's answer, printed with his
portrait December 20, was: "The trou-

Bemaxkable Orchid Display.
Each iiionth during the present year,
A. ('. Euiru<;e, of Beverly Faring, Doug-
las Eccleston, superintendent, has made
an extensive display of orchids at Horti-
eultural hall and they have been easily
the star features of the shows of the
Massachusetts Horticultural Society.
The closing display of the year, Decem-
ber 18 and 19, was well advertised in
the Boston papers and attracted many
thousands of visitors. A group sixty
feet in length with two fronts was
staged in the center of the lecture hall.
Phoenix and other piilms were ilottcd
down the center and among, or directly
below, them hung ]dialipnopsis, oncid-
iunis and cynibidiunis, wliile groups or
individual specimens were staged be-
low them. Artificial rockwork was used
on the fronts and green sheet moss hid
all receptacles from view. This group
was the best arranged of the year and
contained a great wealth of choice
material.
Some fnie varieties were seen. Among
the hundreds shown were Odontoglossum
crispum Kongo Dragon, Inslcayi and
Diana: Phalff'nopsis amabilis, exceed-
ingly fine, and Schilleriana and Lindeni ;
Vandns Luzonica, Sandcrian.a and cajru-

Everyone looks for a good Christmas
business, but few are optimistic enough
to look for a record-beater. With over
twenty-five per cent of the hical facto-
ries and mill works idle, many millions
of dollars in deposits tied up in the
banks which handled Ponzi's funds, and
a general slacking up in activities, it is
reassuring to know that the flower trade
is nearly as gond as it was a year ago.

To All the Florists,
Dear Friends:
We wish every one of you a very Merry Christmas and a
very Happy and Prosperous New Year. We would like to write
separately to each one of you so you would know that we
appreciate the many courtesies you have shown us, only you
have kept us so busy getting off your orders right up to the
last minute that we have to do it this way.
We want to thank you heartily for your confidence in us
as shown by your generous patronage. Should we have been
unfortunate enough to vex you in any way, please think kindly
of us and believe that we did our best to please you.
With every good wish, we remain.

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

Florists'
Refrigerators
We manufacture, in our own plant, a complete
line of florists' refrigerators. While we have
many popular standard designs, most refrig-
erators are built for individual requirements.
Brecht Refrigerators are the result of 67 years"
experience. They are designed on a scien-
tific basis, from the best material obtainable,
and are built to give greatest service with
mmimum ice consumption.
We will be glad to quote you on our standard
designs, or to offer suggestions and submit
special designs upon receipt of your require-
ments.

ing demand for the made-up artificial
baskets, bouquets, etc., is manifested
this season, and dyed grasses, leaves,
etc., have had a big sale.
Funeral work continues to furnish gen-
eral aetivity for tlie stores, while small
weddings with their attendant parties,
receptions, etc., lielp the situation. The
market is somewhat limited in cut flow-
ers. However, roses, carnations, violets,
chrysanthemums and occasional nov-
elties keep things moving.
Various Notes.
The Lowell Avenue Greenhouses, oper
ated by Cohen Bros., have a corner of
W. S. Pino's store for the holidays and
report good business.
The scarcity of good palms and other
decorative plants is the source of general
criticism bv the dealers.
Ed. Brooke, of T. .1. .Tohnston & Co.,
scoured New England for novelties, and
had some fine offerings that sold quickly.
Maenair had a handsome window last
week, one display being artistically ar-
ranged with partridge berry bowls,
Paper Whites in bloom with a back-
ground of ferns, palms, etc., and bright
red ribbons, streamers and dyed grasses.
.Johnston Bros, had the largest force
of clerks this year in their history, yet
everv one was busv. W. H. M.
PITTSBURGH, PA.

There is no complaint as to the husi-
ness of last week. It was excellent, al-
though the shortening in the general
supply was foreseen. Shipments .of

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

Defining Warranty.
"The coiitcntiou tliiit tlio cDurt cri-ed
in ilotinin<r u wiiianty can hardly be sus-
tained. After (intliniug wliat the claims
(if the ]i:irties were, the court instructed
the .jury aj> follows:
•'•To constitute a wairauly it is not
necessary that the word "warranty" or
its jirecise eipiivalent be used, nor is it
necessary That it should be in writing.
It is enough if the seller delinitely un-
dertakes that the thing sold shall be of
a certain kind or a certain quality, and
anv positive statement of fact, not of
opinion, that this was Marquis wlieat,
made by defendant to Johnson in the
course of the conversation leading to
the sale which would show that the de-
fendant intended to bind itself by its
statements and which was understood
and relied ui>on liy the buyer, constitutes
a wai rant^'. '
Rights of Buyer and Seller.
"Again, the court instructed the jury:
'• 'If from tlie evidence you liutl that
<'.'rtain words were sp(d<en under such
circumstances by the representative of
the company, and you are satisfied that
they were intended and were understood
to be that the milling company under-
took and contracted that this seed wheat
was Mar(|uis wheat and iu)t another
kind, and that the ]daintill' had the riglit
to understaml that this comj>any in-
tended to be tiound by it as jtart of the
contract of sale, and tliat llie plaintiff
believed and relied upon such state-
ments in making the purchase, then you
may find that there was a warranty that
this was Marquis wheat. If you believe,
however, from all of the testimony, that
what was said by the ])a'rties there was
not intended or taken as a warranty, but
as an expression of opinion or so-called
trade talk, or that j)laintitl' bought the
grain without relying on what was said
or on his own ins])ection and judgment,
then you may find that the company is
not liable. '
•'The instruction, when considered in
its entirety, was as favorable to defend-
ant as could be expected. It ])resented
to the jury the real issue in clear and
unnnstakable terms and in our opinion
could have left no room for doubt in the
minds of the jurors as to what the legal
rights of the parties were.
•'The mea'^ure of damages was the
difference between the value of the crop
raised from the seed furnished and that
of a crop such as would ordinarily have
been raised from the seed had it been of
the variety contracted for." S.

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

Phoenix, Ariz.— In a 2-page list of sug-
fjested Christniiis ^ifts, imblished in the
largest daily newsjiaper in Phoenix, ap-
jicared a paragrajih ot' tlie Donofrio Flo-
ral Co., suggesting that one and all "Say
It with Flowers'' before and after the
holidays. Charlc? E. Morton is manager
of this establialinu-nt.
Sacrajnento, Cal.— Upon the comple-
tion of the new greenhouses, at Forty-
sixth and M streets, the East Lawn
Nursery lield a formal opening, Decem-
ber 9, and advertised in the daily news-
papers, offering a gift of a potted fern
to all visitors who purchased a dollar's
worth of flowc-rp (^r plants on that day.
A. Cruikslianks is superintendent.
Santa Barbara. Cal. — At the annual
meeting of tin- Santa Barbara County
Horticultural Society officers were
elected as follows: President, E. O.
Orpet; vice-president. P. Reidel; secre-
tary, A. R. Gould: financial secretary,
Charles Waugh: treasurer, Otto Neide-
muller, and directors, James Brown and
P. A. Vincent. The society has plans
for a flower show early in April.
SANTA CRUZ, OAL.
Owing to The increased demand for
Los Roblcs bulbs, the Los Robles Co.
has found it necessary to discontinue
the retail nuiscry and florists' business.
The company will devote itself exclu-
sively to the growing of bulbs for east-
ern ship>meni. This change made neces-
sary a slight alteration in the firm name.
It is now known as the Los Robles Co.
From now on the bulb growings will be
restricted to freesias, callas, Paper
Whites, miniature or Colvillei gladioli
and other bulbs for forcing purposes.
The growing crop is in excellent shape
and a banner harvest is expected this
coming season.
LOS ANGELES, CAL.
The Market.
At the tiHit of writing the indications
are that tJie dry, open weather will
continue until Christmas, and if this is
the case, there will be a better and more
abundant supply of stock in this market
than ever befort. Poinsettias are large
and of fine shijiping quality, while all
kinds of outdoor flowers arc plentiful.
Baby zinnias and other tender stock
that has n»t been cut. owing to lack of
demand, look as tiright and as showy as
in August. Roses from indoors were
never in better supply and the growers
say their cut will last well over the
holiday>.
The heather being shipped for Christ-
mas is. unfortunately, not so well de-
veloped as usual at this time of year,
and it is considered a pity to have to
ship tliis. as it gives the stock from this
market a bad name early in the season
that may check the sale later, when the
stock is at its best. Except for a few
parts of California, it is hard to get out-
door stock in time for long-distance
shipping for Christmas. Plants grown
under glass or frames are, of course,
more forward and help out in basket
work or as specimens. Both wholesalers
and retailers are in good humor over
satisfactory business and, from present
appearances, the holiday trade will be
excellent. The stores carrying greens
and holly report heavy sales.
Various Notes.
Fred Howard and Roy F. Wilcox left
for San Francisco to attend a meeting
of an executive character in connection
with the California Association of Nurs-
erymen.
F. H. Allen, of the Allen Water Gar-
den, has purchased two acres of land
near the foothills to increase his area
for lily ponds and other aquatics. Sev-
eral new ponds and also a greenhouse
for water plants are in prospect and Mr.
Allen still keejjs his Hollywood store
for retail sales. He has made wonderful
progress in the few years he has been
in business.
Sufficient money has been subscribed
or promised to provide financial sup-
port for the new market, to be known
as the American Florists' Exchange of
Los Angeles, while a most favorabi '
option has been obtained on a suitabi
location. An enthusiastic meeting wa
held December 10, when the articles o
incorporation and suggested by-lav
were read by Tom Wright. In additio
to Mr. Wright, the following were pres
ent: Arthur Howard, C. Bates, M
Dennison, E. A. Rust, F. R. Hills, treas
urer; Walter Armacost, A. F. Borden
John Polder, J. Rolleri, John Bodger
Jr., F. H. Allen, Robert Mesick, H. R
Richards, Frank Warner and his son,
M. Warner, George J. Hall, G. Bridge
ford, Albert Goldenson, Gebhard Prechti
and H. Amling. Gus Swenson was not
able to stay for the meeting, but left a
check for his subscription. While manj
of the details are not yet available for
publication, the interest taken by many
]irominent men in the trade is a guar-
antee of the safe launching of the idea
in a practical and successful manner.
A trip to J. Dieterich's new place at
Wintersbury, recently, was full of in-
terest. Although to some extent in the
experimental stage as yet, there are

12,000 plants from l2-inch pots last
spring Mere lar<;e enoufjli last week for
(j-inch and 8-inch pots and full lof
blooms. Pussy willows from cuttinjj:s
had made immense bushes six to eight
feet hio-h. a forest of stock, then just
ready for the market. Aucubas, hydran-
Sea.s and lispidistras in great numbers,
as well as various ferns and palms, were
all at liome in the peat soil here and the
growth ^^•as e.xceptional. A spring forms
the source of water supply for what
will eventually be a fine fish and lily
pond under lath and, wheu the planting
is finished, this will be a most attractive
corner. Mr. Oicterich is further to be
congratulated in that oil fields are open-
ing clo.sf to his location and he has re
eeived some tempting offers for the
lease of his laud.
Probably the finest cut of roses ever
m.'ide by Walter Armacost & Oo. is now
being sent to their store and the demand
is unusually good.

At tlie Athletic Club Florist's some of
the biggest undertakings in the history
of the establishment were brought to
success recently. At the annual dance
of the Athletic Club in the same build
ing, the decf)rations used were wood-
wardia fronds and palms, while the
tables were also beautifully trimmed.
Another novel decoration was at the
Los Angeles Country Club, when Bert
Boteman, the head decorator for the
firm, worked out a scheme of peacock's
feathers ■•in<l art shades of flowers that
was quite successful. .1. l{(dleri also
promises something (|uite new in his
Christmas store decorations.
A most attractive arrangement ol'
colored foliage, grasses and other stock
was noticeil at F. JJchtenberg's store.
This displiiy is large enough to be ef-
fective and the colors are artistically
blended.

Dear Sir:-
These Review ads certainly have an awful wallop. It
keeps us busy running blue pencil through price lists, and print-
ing "Sold Out" signs.
Those heavy 4 and 5-inch Cyclamens are all sold. We
still have some nice 4-inch for 50 cents each, and some 5-inch
for 75 cents. You can still get some 6-inch and 8-inch, but
you will have to hurry.
The Heather, Cinerarias, Begonias, Primroses and Table
Ferns are all gone for Holiday sales. Plenty more when they have
a few days to open up.
You have no type big enough, or black enough, to tell
about our Roses. You just have to see them to appreciate them.
If you cannot come to the Greenhouses, order the Roses sent to you.
Greens? Of Course I We have them by the Acre. We have
everything in season, and just a little bit better than the other
fellow. That is what makes us-
"The Biggest, Best and Busiest Store in the West."
Yours truly,
Walter Armacost & Co.

West Adams Nursery and Mr. Nishida
says he is preparing to ship five more
carloads during the coming spring.
The E. C. Amling Co. reports a big
demand for poinsettias, valley and
heather, while considerable shipments of
palms and other plants are under way.
The Broadway -Florist is keeping up
to its reputation for big funeral orders.
Some immense pieces were on the floor
last week and the workroom has been
full day after day with high-priced work
of all kinds.
C. Gutting, of the Superior Nursery,
is making up and selling some fine mixed
plant baskets. His stock of fine-leaved
erotons, cyclamens and various other
showy plants helps out materially along
this line.
At the store of the Morris & Snow
Seed Co., some magnificent Boston
ferns were shown. Albert Morris is
now in perfect health again and the
new nursery on Figueroa street is mak-
ing great strides under his care.
Fraser & Son, of Pasadena, are han-
dling a quantity of plumosus and
Sprengeri seeds, as well as the many
specialties raised during the last fifteen
years, in which Mr. Fraser, Sr., had
charge of the well known Busch Gar-

The Market.
Cold weather, following the recent
heavy rains, has made good stock scarce
and consequently high in price. All the
growers would be happy if some days of
warm sunshine wouhl come between
now and the holidays, but the sun was
rather chilly and wintry last week.
Mums are almost over and the few that
remain are high-priced, on account of
the fact that there are not enough to
supply the local market. While a good
many violets come into the market
every day, the scarcity of other stock
causes them to go rapidly. A few firms
say they have good carnations, but the
market consumes every day's cut with-
out filling the full demand.
Short stock in roses is scarce, owing
to the fact that almost all growers have
disbudded. Out-of-town buyers mostly
want medium-priced stock, creating a
heavy demand for shorter-stemmed
blooms, which at present are hard to
obtain.
Many potted plants are coming into
the wholesale and retail stores, in antici-

ries, English holly, red pepper boughs
and redwood spr;iys are p entiful and
arc being shipped in largo quantities
to points all over the country. In fact,
the demand for decorative material is so
big that there will certainly be no sur-
plus as the holidavs draw near.
On account of the shortage of good

extent obtaining holiday prices already.
Various Notes.
Since everyone was rushed with holi-
day work, there were only fourteen
members ])resent at the last meeting of
tlie Retail Florists" Association. There-
fore no business was transacted in the
matter of electing pormanent ofliotrs oi

Mrs. E. E. Darbee expressed the sea-

said recently, ' ' How fortunate we are
to be florists! Merchants in so many
other lines are loaded up with goods
which they bought at the apex of the
market and now have to dispose of,
with prices dropping rapidly. We are
thankful not to have accumulations of
stock on hand. We have an excellent
holiday season ahead of us and are just
glad to be florists.' '
J. A. Axell states that he is almost
booked up to capacity with holiday or-
ders. Among Mr. Axell 's holiday goods
are some fine Heliehrysum monstrosum,

are bringing in just when the straw-

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

The demand for Christmas wreatlis,
ornanioutal baskets and cedar rope is

and, with the continuance of mild
weatlier until after the holiday season,
it is believed a record will be estab-

QOME people tell you that they are the
^ leaders of all others in their line
of business. All right! The same peo-
ple tell you that their goods cannot be
had elsewhere; and that they never make
a mistake. Well, we hope that they can
live up to it all! But, here we are, just
ordinary florists.
There are probably many florists in Montreal better
than we. Our cut stock comes from the best grow-
ers, and we grow our own fine pot plants, but others
have them just as good; and when it comes to mis-
takes, we wonder if others make them as often as we do.
But, listen! When you send us an order we do
our best to be careful, to be prompt, to send
fine flowers, to iiave the card right, and above
all to give the paeicage a distinct touch of good
taste and originality, if possible, that will de-
light the recipient.

From Kankakee
WllKN the newspaper eartconists'set out of fuuiiy stufl',
they turn to Kokoino or Kankakee and hanu some
moth-eaten joke ou theni, of the vintage of 1SJ2. And
folks lauijli.
Not seemingly at the joke— because there never is any —
but.because il"s Kankakee.

Laughed in the presence cf a regular 6-foot Kaukakeer.
After.which, he sat uie down at lunch and between kick-

me over the table, I gradually awoke to the fact, that he
was talking serious.
He hauded me out some kinks from Kankakee that 1 ave
put the loud pedal down on my cash register in a way that
makes me feel in a very grateful kind of meed.
Drop in sonietime and I'll tell you what it was. That is,

serious manner. Mlk..-.

my mind was that no florist could ever
reach such heights. In those days
there were several ranges in the cast
that tlie older florists themselves used
to look upon as purely phenomenal, with
no idea of ever equaling them.
Two Boys' Achievement.
About the time I am talking of, or, to
be exact, in 1880, there were in Wash-
ington, D. C, two boys working in the
old Studer range, at Anacostia, William
F. and Adolph Gude. These boys had
reached early manhood and, like every
other boy in the industry, were reason-
ing along the lines noted above. But
fate decreed that they should remaii*

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

The Market.
Neither wholesale iior retail markets
were so brisk as usual last week. The
wholesalers were kept fairly busy ship-
l)ing supplies and the retailers were
busy making i)reparations for a large
Christinas trade. During the week a
heavy sale was reported by some retail-
ors of wreaths, festoons, ruseus, artificial
flowers in baskets, holly and other
greens, especially boxwood, which is in
great fa\(ir here. This was especially
true of the downtown florists. The
west end florists sold little of this class
i>f stock, but had on display a wealth
of fiiiicy blooming plants and the best
mKility in cut stock. The plants in-
<luded some e.xtra fine cyclamens, cro-
toiis, jioinsettias, Otaheite oranges and
foliage plants. It was intimated last
week that, if cut flower i)rices should
liecome high, jilants would be pushed to
tli(> limit.
Koscs in all wirieties airi\ed daily
last week and at reasonable prices.
I 'rices will, of course, ,ium]i on all stock
this week. Tiie rose growers assure the
retailers tliat there is a big crop of
J'riMiiier, Kusseli, Ophelia. Columbia and
Killarnov. Milaily and Sunburst are
not so plentiful.
Carnation growers, as well, promise an
txcellent croj) for the holidays. The
\arieties expected here are Nebraska
for red. Enchantress for white and pink,
Benora for variegated and Ward for
dark pink. There will be mums for
Christinas, as some of the local growers
will have an excellent cut of Bonnaffon,
Ilamlmrg, a late i)ink, and pompons,
which should meet a large demand.
Other stock, such as calendulas, snaj>-

Tlif soerotarv iriiortod that every
mail lia.s liroiijilil one application for
menibership, a.s a result of the 200 let-
ters he mailed to growers throughout
the district, lie expressed a hope that
by the time of the annual meeting the
membership would total 100.
The selection of the place for the an-
nual meeting then came up and, on vote,
St. Louis was selected. The date was
changed from .January 2.5 to .January IS.
so as not to conflict with the date of
the national association's meeting at
Washington. All arrangements were
left in the hands of the entertainment
committee. J. F. Ammann, .secretary
of the National Flower Growers' Asso-
ciation, was present and gave an inter-
esting talk on his recent travels. After
a general discussion for the good of the
new district branch, the meeting was
adjourned.

deal of important business will be trans-
acted.
The Foster Floral Co. held an ojieuiiifif

he opened a store at 4023 Newstedt ave-
nue. The place will be known as the
McGill Floral Shop.
Walter Amling, of I'ann, 111., expects

days. The production of his establish-
ment is marketed at St. Louis.
The wonderful disjtlay of Christmas
novelties in the bijj show windows of
Grimm & (iorly, on Washiii<;ton avenue,
attracted buyers last week and the sell-
hiff force was doubled for this week.
The St. Louis Seed C'o. sent out large
sliiiuneiits daily of holly, greens and
riiscus. August Ilummert said the de-
mand from outside points was larger
than ever this year.

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

ing, as though blooniiiig plants were
going to bo scarce, an<l the retailers
have been taking time by the forelock
and making their purchases early.
With any sort of fa^ orable weather
during the next week, the rose crop
should be a good one. Nearly every
one has been timing his crop for the
holidays and in most cases the crops
will be just right. Carnations will be
in good supply. There will, however,
be a shortage of red. This is not a new
condition, for there never are enough
of this color to go around. There should
be plenty of Avhite and pink, and the
quality this year is all that could be
desired. It is hard to say just what
the violet situation will be. If local
stock is to be depended upon, they will
be scarce; but the wholesale houses
have hopes that the out-of-town stock
will relieve the situation. This will
depend a great deal on transportation.
Sweet peas will be in fair supply and
the quality will be good. Paper Whites
Avill be in good supply.
All miscellaneous stock is promising.
Never have red immortelles sold better.
The wholesale houses are about cleaned
up on these, and as most immortelles

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

us lately. We have liad little sunshine,
but ydenty of snow, sleet, rain and slush.
Perhaps some readers will not know
what slush means. A pro|ier slush, as
we have it in Montreal, is a foot of
soft snow, on which a good day's rain
has fallen, resulting in six inches of
slush. All of this is bad for growing
flowers and still worse for selling them.

scarpc, and now that the mums arc
gone, growers are at a loss to know wliat
to ask for flowers. The best carnations
came in last week billed at $20 per
hundred for the best stock and $15 for
the ordinary; culls are $12. Roses have
been $2.') per hundred wholesale for
some time. Violets are scarce, at $2.50
per hundred for singles. Easter lilies
have been $25 per hundred; iris, $25;
Paper Whites, $6; Soleil d'Or, $8.
But we have plenty of potted plants.

Yankee readers would be delighted to
see our azaleas and espeeially the large
quantity ol' them, including fine Petriek
••Hid Vervii'iieana. Cyelanieiis are good,
but not overabundant. However, there
is an aini)le supi)ly of Cleveland cher-
ries and ])iiinulas. Poinsettias are
scarce, but they are hard to handle in
this cold climate. Ferns are plentiful
Viecause they have not been in great de-
mand lately.
Among the Growers.
Arthur Legare has large (luantities of
azaleas and cherries.
Victor Cardinal has a great display
of azaleas.
J. Bennett, of Lachine, has excellent
I)oiiisettias and cyclamens.
C. Nielson has his usual stock in fine
shape.
Camille Gratton, though handicapped
during the season with a short w^ater
supply, has a good stock.

its own stores, has immense supplies of
azaleas, poinsettias, cyclamens, crotons
and everything needed for the holiday
demand.
Eetail business has not been excep-
tionally brisk, but all florists look for-
ward to a busy Christmas season.
Hall & Robinson have their cyclamens
in better shape than ever; also ericas,
Cleveland cherries, poinsettias and
Primula malacoides. Their azaleas did
not arrive until November 15, and were
frost-bitten; so they are not strong on
these plants. W. C. H.

The Market.
Prospects for Christinas business are
exceedingly bright. There lias been
much shopping in flowers for several
weeks. Prospoctivo buyers apparently
are comparing prices of flowers with
those of other merchandise. As a re-
sult, many onlcrs have been placed
earlier than usual. Growers realize that
the public is not spending money so
lavishlj' as it did a year ago and have
prepared accordingly. Plants to soil
from $1.50 to $7 have been largely
stocked for the average buyers, witli a
large ])art of tlic supply between $!.;")()
and $3. Of course, there are many
which are more expensive and these
will be sold too, but most preparation is
for the less expensive trade. Thanks-
giving demonstrated that the buying
was above normal in number of sales
rather than in large amounts.
In cut stock roses are plentiful, while
the supply of carnations is limited.
Sweet peas will not tigure largely in this
market.

Kansas apple seedlings seem to bo of
excellent quality this year and the deinan<l
for them heavy.
The D. Hill Nursery Co., Dundee, 111.,
shipped large orders of Christmas trees
all over the country. The largest orders
went to florists in the big cities. Tiie
total number of trees available this year
fell short of tiie demand.
TnK Fancher Creek Nurseiies, at
Fresno, Cul., has LMU acres in the general
fruit tree nursi'ries, twelve miles south
of Fresno, Kilt acres in its ornamental
nurseries, two and one-half miles north-
west of Fresno, and 320 acres in its
citrus orchard nurseries at Exeter.
The New England Nurserymen's Asso-
ciation will meet at the American House,
Boston, January 2~) and 26. The present
officers of the association are: President,
Charles Adams; vice-president, John K.
M. L. Far<juhar; secretary, Sheldon Rob-
inson, and ticasurer, V. A. Vaiiicek.
AccoKDixc; to advices received at

Charles T. Kaw.son has secured a location
in the ii[)per vali(;y there iind will re-
enter tiie nursery business. Mr. Kawson
was formerly in business with Frank Stan
ton at Hood Kiver and had since retired.
CONGKESS has been asked by the de-
partment of Agriculture to approjiriatc
$300,000 to be used in checking the spread
of the gypsy and browii-tail moths in New
York, New Jersey and Pennsylvania.
More than 100 s(|uare miles in New Jer-
sey have been infested, the department
said.
The Toledo Blade December !» printed
an interview with Edward G. Greening,
of the Greening Nursery Co., Monroe,
Mich., under the caption, "Trees Appre-
ciate in Value While Houst' Depreciates."
This kind of advertising is not only of
v.alue to Mr. Greening's firm, but helps
to educate the general public to look on
nursery products as investments and not
iis mere ornaments.
I.MPOKTKi) seedlings are so scarce and
so diflficult to obtain that the Loma Rica
Ranch, Grass Valley, C"al., is preparing
to plant 1;'),000 additional trees during
the coming planting season. Tree digging
started in the nurseries of the ranch early
in December and ;i modern tree digger
has been lifting from 2;'),000 to .5(1,000
daily. Mnnager A. L. Wisker is con-
fident of a market for all the additional
seecllings he can j)lant.

THE NURSERYMAN'S SERVICE.
Relations of the nurseryman to his
customer, far different from those of
most other sorts of merchants, are de-
scribed, in a way that should urge those
who follow this profession to make the
most of the opportunities so presented
to them, by (Jeorge ('. Koeding, presi-
dent of the Fancher Creek Nurseries, at
Fresno, Cat, as follows:
''In this ilay of ])rogress business is

jileted without any further exactions

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

shipping large orders of holly and cedar
moss to points as far east as tlie Mis-
sissippi river.
The Woodlawn Flower Shop has been
busy with store decorations. This and
funeral work resulted in overtime work
for the staff nearly every night last
week. Harry Crouch and E. W. Clark,
of this shoi), were on buying trips the
greater part of last week.
One large wedding and several deco-
rations were reported last week at Ken-
ney's Home of Flowers, and the in-
creased social ;Hti\ities are helping to
keep business uji.
The Hollywood hardens have been
enjoying gdod business and there has
been a demand for the novelties worked
out for tlie holiday season at this shop.
Potted orange trees are again being
shown at lliis store, with good results,
and it is expected that their own green-
houses will supply all the poinsettias
needed for this holiday.
It has been suggested that Seattle
offers a chance for the secretary of the
S. A. F. in protecting the trade slogan,
"Say It with Flowers." A local baker
has for the last few weeks been fea-
turing in his advertising the phrase,
"Say It with Fruit Cake— It Lasts
Longer, ' ' and last week a furniture
house in the university district branched
out with • ' Sav It with Wall Paper —
Why Not?'"
A fine sale of potted offerings and
holly wreaths to transient trade is re-
ported by Melby & Allen, and this shop
also notes an increase in the sale of cut
flowers. The entire work of decorating
the recently opened Queen City market
for the holi<lays was handled by this
firm.
Advices from Hood River, Ore., to the
trade say that Charles T. Rawson, for-
merly associated in the nursery business
there with Frank Stanton and since re-
tired, has secured a location in the upper
valley and will reenter the nursery busi-
ness.
The sailing, last week, of the final
Oriental liner to get its passengers
on the other side before New Year's
day was the occasion of some fine or-
ders. Not the least interesting part of
this business was the sale, through the
port steward, of a number of potted
plants to be used in brightening the
Christmas festivities at sea. H. Mv

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

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

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

house 25x85 feet, with 7-fo(it walls with

In order to use the 1^4 -inch pipe on
hand we should suggest running a 2%-
inch flow pipe about three feet below
the ridge and supplying with it six lines
of 114 -inch returns, arranged in pairs
on the purlin and ridgo posts at the
level of the plates, or if there are no
posts in the house they can be carried
on the truss rods.
For the side walla run a 3-inch flow
pipe at each plate and connect each
flow with a coil of five 2-inch return
pipes, carried on the side walls.

daisies. Magnolia, boxwood, galax, moss,
holly and rope wreaths are in abundance.
Among the plants which are on sale are
poinsettias, begonias, Cleveland cherries,

The Market.
Last week showed a marked increase
in business. Mums are gone except a
few of the later varieties, and these are
of poor quality. Roses of all kinds are
moving well, and the quality was never
better. Dunlop, Ophelia, Hoosier and
Columbia are the leaders at $10 to $30
per hundred. Carnations are in good
supply, but clean up well at $4 to $10
per hundred. Sweet pc.Ts are arriving
in larger numbers, but the demand is
far in excess of tlie cut. Paper Whites
are plentiful at $6 ])or liundrod.
Pot plants arc beginning to move in
larger nuinbcrs, and a good supply of
cyclauiens, Begonias Cincinnati and
Melior, poinsettias. Primula obconica,
ferns, cliorries, jieppprs, etc., is in evi-
dence for Christmas trade.
Various Notes.
A. A. Cumes, formerly with the Evans
Floral Co., has organized a com]iany
and has ojiened a store at 38 South Main
street. The firm name is the Ideal

A firm known as the National Florist
has opened a new store at 145 South
Main street. Mr. Eldridge, of the
American Floral Shop, will manage the
business.
According to reports from all growers
in this section, a bumper Christmas is
almost at hand. Many growers who
were afraid their stock was too large
are already sold out. Prices tliis year
are in nearly all cases the same as last
year. Roses will l>ring $10 to $4r) per
hundred, carnations $8 to $20, sweet
peas $2 to $4, poinsettias $3 to $8 and
Paper Whites $8 to $10.

— GREETINGS=^
In again extending to our many friends —
customers and others— our best wishes for a
Merry Christmas and
Happy New Year
— we want to thank them for the many favors they
have extended to us during this past year. It has
been a great year for us; yet notwithstanding the
difficulties of production — shortage of labor and
materials and disorganization of transportation—
we have maintained our reputation —
To deliver or complete a job
at the time specified or to
refuse to accept the order.
Following this time-honored principle, we are
proud to say that, although we have had a big
business, we have not failed to "come through"
on every job.
With us a June contract means
June — not December, as some
of our friends have found that
some other builders figure.
Our friends may have felt disappointment at our
refusing their work, but any well posted builder who
had a reasonable amount of work on hand knew
that it would be impossible to meet these specified
dates and we were averse to making contracts that
could not be kept. We would rather lose one order
from them than their friendship.
Foley promises — like Foley
Greenhouses — make good
every time. May we have the
pleasure of proving both to you?
Our prices are down — our facilities are increased —
and inquiries are coming in.

TORONTO, ONT.
Club Meeting.
The regular meeting of the Toronto
Retail Florists' Club was held December
13, with President S. A. McFadden in
the chair. There was a large attend-
ance and there were several good discus-
sions. All the members were enthusias-
tic over the outlook for the Christmas
trade.
The publicity committee chairman,
Geo. M. Geraghty, reported as to the
work of the committee in Christmas ad-
vertising. Both growers and retailers
had supported the advertising fund lib-
erally, with the result that effective ad-
vertising was made possible. It was de-
cided to use the Sunday papers and
some of the daily papers.
The advertising committee also re-
ported on the "Say It with Flowers"
signboards. It was decided that the
growers located at the entrances to the
city should have the first chance to pur-
chase the signs and several have been
sold. Several of the members wanted
signs, but will have to take second
chance.
It was decided to unite with the Gar-
deners' and Florists' Association in
staging a flower show next year. The
president will appoint the committee.
S. A. Frost is scheduled to read a
paper at the January meeting. The con-
veners of the social and entertainment
committees were instructed to make ar-
rangements for the annual dance in
January. The date will be announced
later.
Carl Grobba was congratulated on the
splendid show which he staged for the
benefit of the trade at his greenhouses.
Steps will be taken to stop Sunday
selling. Power has been given author-
ities to secure evidence and see that
offenders are punished.
In February a St. Valentine's social
will be held.

Mr. W. L. Ferguson, Smiths Falls, Ontario, un-

In regard to our petunias:
"Last year I purchased Petunia seed from you.
I think every seed germinated and the blooms
were the finest ever seen In this part of Canada.
Only about 8 per cent of the plants could be
classed as common. I want more of the same
quality each year."
Mr. Rudolf Nagel. T.jincaster, Pa., under date
of Dec. 14th, 1919, writes us:
"I had last year Just a few of your petunias,
but I am sure I could have sold thousands of
tbem. They surely came up to your claim and
way ahead of my expectation."

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

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

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

and speaking of ranges
that were erected by us
The one erected for the Joy Floral Co., Nashville, Tenn., is gen-
erally conceded to be the most complete and up-to-date erected
in the middle west this year.
Many who visited this range on their way to or from the'fmeet-
ing of the Tennessee State Florists' Association felt that an
inspection of this range was in itself well worth the trip.
And so this is a double purpose range — it produces the high
grade stock handled by the Joy Floral Co., and it advertises it at
the same time.
When you say the word, we'll be glad to figure on houses for
yon that will boost your business in two ways.
Can't we have that word now?

Of course you are very busy just now before Christmas, but
while you are resting a moment and catching your breath,
cast a glance at the above section of a 36-ft. greenhouse.
It is of pipe frame construction with Louisiana gulf red
cypress framework. The pipe superstructure is all joined
together with "Bolted through" galvanized steel fittings
that cannot break or pull off.
We feel sure that if we only had the opportunity to Show
You the many advantages of this style of construction, you
would place your order with us in a hurry.
When may we serve you?

lad )lus Bulbs are strictly up to size and guaran-
ed. We furnish the Planting stock. Our bulbs

e hope, if you are a buyer of Gladiolus Bulbs,
at you will send us your order.
Those Gladioli you sent us were all fine bloom-
ers and good colors. Every bulb bloomed (in the
greenhouse), even the smallest bulbs. They were
extra good in color.

was not so large or varied as previously and the weather hindened the latter,
but sales were large. To get the stock desired was more difficult than to sell it.

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

would otherwise have been out shopping
that day and deprived florists of much
counter trade.
Some districts were better favored
and florists in those places experienced
good cash sales and little difficulty in
delivering orders. From those sections
reports of the holiday's business are
brightest.
To the growers, of course, the weather
of the preceding month had been a
handicap, though whether more than
usual is liard to say. The effects were
most marked in cut flowers. The variety
was notably small this year, and
good stock was not overabun-
dant. All of the best that could
be had found a ready sale, but
some poor stock could not be
moved. Beauties were not plen-
tiful. Carnations felt the effects
of the weather, and the small
supply available brought excel-
lent prices. Red, naturally, was
all too scarce. Violets were not
in their usual supply and were
missed in many stores. Sweet
l)eas, because of the weather,
cut less figure than usual. Paper
Whites and Soleil d'Or helped
out in some places, the former
being quite abundant in some
places. Other items did not cut
much figure. Eoses were the big
item and, as always, were too
few in the good grades and too
many in the poor. These condi-
tions, one slrould remember, are
generally stated, though some
items varied widely in different
localities.

Heavy Advertising Aided Christmas Sales in Chicago.
Plants Not Plentiful.
In plants the supply was not
the most favorable. The variety
on hand seemed less than in
former years. For a second sea-
son that Christmas stand-by, the
cyclamen, was far from plentiful
enough. Nor were any other
items in markedly large supply.
The opinion was general among
retailers that there were not
enough of the handsome speci-
mens that appeal to the best
trade. In place of such offer-
ings were substituted baskets of
]ilants in which the artistry of
the arrangement was made to
supply what the culture failed
to furnish. Some large poinset-
tias and some fine ericas were
seen here and there, as were a
few of other kinds of plants, but

I The Florists' Review
Deckmber 30, 1920
the general run gave rise to expression
of the sentiment that the greenhouse in-
dustry, which lost ground during and
since the war, must accelerate its prog-
ress to keep step with the retail profes-
sion. The scarcity of help in months
past was reflected this Christmas, and
since this is over, there are hopes of
immediate improvement.
Foliage plants sold better this Christ-
mas than on many past occasions, for the
simple reason that blooming plants were
lacking for desired purposes. This fact
is regarded with favor by all the trade,
for such sales promote the use of plants
the year around in the home.
As an Augury.
Interpreted as an indication of what
the trade may expect in the way of
business during the coming months, the
Christmas trade contained propitious
omens. As mentioned above, it showed
that the slump that had hit other lines
of business did not affect the sale of
flowers to the extent many members of
the trade feared. Indeed, it is believed
that the strain of high prices on the
salaried class is being somewhat re-
lieved and that the resumption of flower
buying by individuals so afEected will
offset the loss that will accrue as a re-
sult of the return of extravagant wages
to something like normalcy. This
Christmas trade also indicated what had
been earlier remarked, that supply was
falling behind demand, in plants as in
cut flowers, and that a real effort would
be needed to catch up. High price of
coal, now past, and scarcity of labor,
also at an end, were contributing causes,
and with them removed, the outlook is
more promising. Signs point, too, to-
ward a building boom in the greenhouse
trade next spring, which will better pro-
duction next year.
For Easter, however, special efforts
must be made to prepare sufficient stock
by the early date on which it falls in
1921. Present indications are not for
an exceedingly large supply, though it
is yet early to prophesy. If general
business resumes its active advance, as
financial men forecast, then the big day
of spring will call for all the material
the trade can prepare.

TAKE TIP FROM REVIEW.
CHIC AGO 'S ADVERTISING.
The early hesitation on tlie part of
flower buyers seemed to have been over-
come in Chicago by some means or
other, for last-minute business was ex-
ceptionally lioavy. The advertising of
the Allied Florists' Association was
doubtless instrumental in this. For the
occasion two advertiseinents. nrcui)ying
nearly one-quarter page encli, appeared
at the beginning of Christmas week. In
the two Sunday papers, December 19,
the Tribune and the Herald and Exam-
iner, appeared one advertisement sug-
gesting flowers as gifts and calling at-
tention to telegraph delivery service.
This advertisement was repeated in the
four afternoon paf)ers the following day.
December 21 and 22 appeared the ad-
vertisement reproduced on the preced-
ing page, three papers being used each
day. The total circulation reached by
the six insertions of these two adver-
tisements, according to Secretary H. V.
Swenson's estimate, is 4.000,000. That
means, approximately, that everybody
in Chicago had a chance to see florists'
advertising twice.
Individual florists also carried con-
spicuous advertising the week before
Christmas, the largest and most striking
Seek to Explain High Prices.
A month ago, in the December 2
issue. The Eeview indicated how florists
could, in the words of the article's cap-
tion, "Check Complaints on High
Prices. ' ' The newspaper publicity given
this subject at Thanksgiving time
prompted the article and the suggestion
then made was that effective work of
this character could be done for Christ-
mas, when it would be notably needed.
The simplest procedure of getting this
explanatory material on the subject of
prices into the columns of the daily
press was illustrated by a letter from
The Eeview to the editor of the Tribune,
Chicago's largest daily, printed in the
latter at that time.
The suggestion and the mode of pro-
cedure indicated at that time by The
Eeview were followed last week in Chi-
cago. Working in behalf of the Allied
Florists' Association of Illinois, Mrs.
Ella Grant Wilson, who had gone to that
city from Cleveland for the purpose of
getting articles into the daily papers,
succeeded in breaking into the Herald
and Examiner, the smaller morning pa-
per, in the department headed "Letters
from the People." Under the caption
' ' Why ' Say It with Flowers ' Is Costly, ' '
she developed the idea suggested by
The Eeview, giving a few interesting
details for the public's consumptio
Her letter, which appeared in the Heral
and Examiner December 24, read as f o

pruned and fumigated at least weekly, soni'
times oftener. It requires expert treatment t
a man who understands roses. Then one or t\\
shoots only are allowed to come up and matui
for flowers.
Meanwhile, the coal that costs $12 a ton ha
been used to force these two roses into biooin
Bvery single thing that enters into the prodiir
tlon of the roses has advanced 100 to 3(»
per cent — glass, stakes, fertilizer, in8ectici(le^
as well as labor and coal, and not one iten
has come down as yet. The same scale hold-
good for all flowers grown under glass.
After the roses are grown they have to b.'
cut, put into water, packed and sent by truck
to a city wholesale house, where they an
graded into extra selects, selects, firsts, sec
ends and culls — all depending on the length am!
strength of the stems. Then they are sold to
the retail stores. Retail prices are governeil
entirely by the wholesale market, and the whole
sale market bases its prices solely on the ques
tlon of demand and supply.
At Christmas time there is very little sun
to ripen and open the flowers; sometimes a rose-
bud will stay dormant for a week or two durin;:
such dark weather as we are having now, whereas
a bright, sunny day will bring them popping;
open.
The retailer must recut the stems, etc. The
customer, told to "Say It with Flowers," thinks
be will, but when the high-salaried clerk tells
him these long-stemmed roses will cost him
from $8 to $18 a dozen, he thinks hard thlngn
of the florist. If the customer understood and
considered what it cost to lay that dozen long-
stemmed roses before him, he would wonder
how the florist could sell them as cheaply as
he does. One grower told me he had 105 men
employed and bad put in 60,000 tons of conl
and did not expect that would see him through.
And, besides, the city retailer has high rents,
expensive help and expensive deliveries to
make.

HEAVY CHRISTMAS RUSH.
Fails to Faze Fox.
[I have never had even a few mo-
ments to spare on the day before Christ-
mas. Tliere was always too much to do.
So when an invitation came to see how
a flower shop in the center of Philadel-
phia is conducted during a holiday rush,
I just accepted and made the time. —
Phil.]
It was a little after 11 on the
morning of Friday, December 24. The
time is of especial importance because
it signifies the peak of the Christmas
rush. Charles Henry Fox was standing
a few paces inside the door of his at-
tractive flower shop just below the Eitz.
He looked sercue-and cheerful, as though
he had not a care in the world, and after
a cordial greeting proposed a stroll
through the place.
The shop was exquisitely clean and
neat. Many beautiful plants were ar-
ranged effectively; yet the impression
created was that they happened to be
there, as it were, by the merest chance.
Each plant was a perfect specimen and
was placed in a basket of a color that
harmonized best with its fruit or foli-
age. Mr. Fox favors plants at Christ-
mas, because their value and quality are
known in advance. Nothing raw is
sent out. Everything must be the fin-
ished product that will reflect credit
everywhere. Customers were coming
and going, yet there was no hurry or
bustle about the shop; rather an air of
quiet elegance. The bookkeeping de-
partment, immediately in the rear of
the shop, was busily employed entering
the orders that had been filled.
Departments for Everything.
The shipping department was pack-
ing and tagging the orders preparatory
to delivery. As the order was wrapped
it was placed in its special compart-
ment with its fellows. A map of Phila-
delphia on the wall showed clearly all
the streets and to which route the par-
cels belonged. The city is for conven-
ience divided into sections, such as
central, north Philadelphia, German-
town, Chestnut Hill, the main line, and
so on. Each section is a route; each
route is assigned to a truck. Wherever
possible, delivery is made by messenger
rather than by truck.
The next and most important depart-
ment was devoted to filling orders. W.
C. Harry was supplying both executive
and motive power, aided by able assist-
ants. Charts, alphabetically arranged,
were on the walls, showing the facts
concerning all the Christmas orders; by
whom sent, to whom, their contents,
when sent, where and the route. Each
order slip either had the card fastened
on it with the tag, or the words, "No
Card," were written on it. Beyond
the packing room is a natural cooling
room formed by the space between two
tall brick walls. It is filled with shelves
and is ventilated by means of a shaft
with an opening at the top at one end.
There is an opening near the floor at

tlie other end to induce circulation.
Flowers placed here retain their vital-
ity, even in summer, for a long time.
"The idea in all this," Mr. Pox said,
"is to keep the departments separate.
Let each do their own special work and
do it well. There is no rushing in and
out of the store to fill orders, no closing
the store to fill orders. The packing for
today began at 5:30 this morning. It
will probably be finished by 5:30 this
afternoon, and it will be well done.
There will be few mistakes, because
each person's mind is on what he or
she is doing and the work has been care-
fully planned.''"
While parting, Mr. Fox gave a
glimpse at his floral policy. "I think
the drift of the market toward roses is
an advantage. At best, the carnation
is a plebeian flower. I do not have them
at Christmas, because it is impossible to
judge their age. Had I 500 carnations
in the place, there would be a lot of
complaints Monday morning. I do not
favor begonias for the same reason.
They are even more perishable than
carnations. We like cyclamens, poinset-
tias and oranges at Christmas. No, peo-
ple do not care for ardisias. We put
them in the window. They say, 'How
prettyl ' and buy the others. Yes, cro-
tons are good.
"I think it is a mistake to offer pussy
willow now. Stock should be confined
to reds and purples. Pussy willow
should not come until after New Year's.
Violets have been unsatisfactory this
year, and we have no good substitutes
for them.
"Before you go, observe how the colors
on these pots harmonize with the fruit
or foliage or flower of the plant, as the
case may be. They are selected with
great care." Phil,
Frank Oechslin observed the effects of
the fungous disease that caused grave
concern to some cyclamen specialists,
he had an abundant stock of this Christ-
mas stand-by, including a large quan-
tity of fine specimens in 5-inch to 8-inch
pots. Mr. Oechslin has always done
well with this plant and this year, as
formerly, none better were to be had
in his vicinity. They are now all gone,
for every plant was called for by Chi-
cago retailers for the holidays. But the
illustration on this page gives an indi-
cation of how fine a stock Mr. Oechs-
lin had. This illustration shows one of
the four houses filled with cyclamens.

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

does an advertiser buy space in The Re-

merits as an advertising medium, the
way Walter Armacost did last week.
Refer to page 59, issue of December 23,

Thank you, Mr. Armacost! Your way
of putting it should cause some other

CHISTMAS BI.AZE IN ATLANTA.
C. A. Dahl Co. Losses $30,000.
Atlanta, Ga., witnessed a spectacular
fire Christmas morning, when the store
of tlie C. A. Dahl Co., one of the largest
retail flower shops in the south, was
completely destroyed and the Nunnally
Co., a flower and confectionery company
in the same building, suffered heavy
losses. The damage to the Dahl Co. is
estimated at $30,000 and that to the
Nunnally Co. at $20,000. The losses of
both firms were covered by insurance.
Fortunately, the two companies had
nearly all their holiday orders delivered
and, up to the morning of the fire, had
done an exceptionally good trade. All
unfilled orders of both firms were taken
care of through the courtesy of brother
florists,' who came promptly to the res-
cue. Tlie Nunnally Co. resumed busi-
ness a few days later at the same loca-
tion and the Dahl Floral Co. opened a
new store Monday, December 27, at 72
North Broad street.
Three-Hour Blaze.
The fire originated in the basement of
the building, 101 to 103 Peachtree street,
shortly before 10 o'clock Christmas
morning. Defective wiring was blamed
for the blaze. Water and smoke caused
a considerable portion of the damage to
the Nunnally Co. The fire, besides gut-
ting the above-named establishments,
spread to the rear of 105 Peachtree
street and did considerable damage to
an optical firm 's stock there. The total
damage, including the value of build-
ings, was estimated at over $100,000.
The fire was discovered by R. I.
Gresham, manager of the Dahl Co., but
before the firemen could begin opera-
tions the building was wrapped in flames
and it was almost three hours before
the blaze could be brought under con-
trol.
Great volumes of smoke rolled out
from the front of the burning struc-
ture and the firemen were faced by
many difficulties. Tons of water were
poured into the building and, running
through into the basement of the Nun-
nally establishment, ruined thousands of
dollars' worth of candy and confections
of various kinds.
Dahl Co. Moves.
Eight pumping engines were in opera-
tion and more than a dozen streams of
water played on the burning structures
for three hours. All traffic was held up
during the entire morning. It was
with difficulty that the flames were
prevented from spreading to adjacent
buildings.
When it became apparent that the
establishment of the C. A. Dahl Co. had
been wiped out, Mr. Gresham announced
that business would be carried on as
usual and that the company would oc-
cupy a part of the Goodhart-Tompkins
store, at 72 North Broad street.
Still Another Fire.
Ralph Dean had a small blaze Christ-
mas week in his workroom. North
Broad street. He managed, however,
to extinguish it unaided, although at the
expense of his person. His hands in
particular were badly burned, but at the
time of writing were much improved.

ONE YEAR OF QUARANTINE
TEDERAL BOABD'S BEFOBT.
For First Year Under Quarantine 37.
The annual report of the Federal Hor-
ticultural Board, submitted by Chairman
C. L. Marlatt to Secretary of Agricul-
ture Meredith, is of especial interest
this year because of the summary it
gives of the first year's operation of
Quarantine 37 and the result upon this
country's horticultural imports. Ee-
garding this subject the report says:
"Quarantine 37, which applies new
and important prohibitions and restric-
tions on the entry into the United States
of nursery stock, plants and seeds, be-
came effective June 1, 1919. The fiscal
year ending June 30, 1920, therefore,
represents the first year's record of the
enforcement of this quarantine. Under
this quarantine three classes of entry
are provided for:
"1. Entry of fruits, vegetables, ce-
reals and other plant products which
are capable of propagation, intended for
medicinal, food or manufacturing pur-
poses, and field, vegetable and flower
seeds. These classes are permitted en-
try without permit or other restrictions
and therefore no record has been kept
by the board of such importations.
"2. Nursery stock and other plants
and seeds for which permit is required,
but of which unlimited commercial im-
portation is permitted. This class is
restricted to five categories, chiefly cer-
tain bulbs, fruit stocks and rose stocks
and seeds of trees and ornamental
shrubs for propagation.
"3. Entry of any of the prohibited
classes of nursery stock under special
permits for the purpose of keeping the
country supplied with new varieties and
necessary propagating stock; in other
words, for the establishment of repro-
"luction enterprises in this country so
that as soon as possible this country
shall be independent of all foreign sup-
jilies of that character.
Imports of Stock Allowed Entry.
"The three tables on this page re-
I'ord the importations of nursery stock
and other plants and seeds of which un-
limited commercial importation under
regulation 3 is provided for in the quar-
antine under permit. The records of
importations given in these tables are
based on the notice of arrival visaed by
the customs officers as is required un-
'ler the quarantine, and therefore rep-
resent probably as accurate information
'•f the plants thus imported as is obtain-
able.
"The first table gives a record of the
importations of fruit stocks and rose
-•tocks, together with country of origin.
It is interesting to note that the impor-
tation of fruit stocks this year represents
a total of 7,856,620 plants and compares
therefore favorably with the total im-
portations recorded in the annual re-
port for the previous fiscal year and
would seem to dispose of the contention
frequently made that the unavailability
of foreign fruit stocks during the last
fiscal year was due in any part to the
refusal of the foreign growers to sell
to American importers in retaliation for
Quarantine 37. It is, however, a well
known fact that during the last two
years, owing to postwar conditions and
failure of the fruit crop in France, the
stock of seeds for the productien of
seedlings was very low, and whatever
shortage has arisen has been due to these
two causes. The number of rose stocks
imported this year is about the same
as for last year.
' ' The second table indicates the num-
ber of bulbs imported under regulation
3 of Quarantine 37.
"The third table is interesting as
showing the general classes of tree
seeds and ornamental shrubs imported
during the last fiscal year and also the
countries of origin.
Imports on Permit.
"As already noted, provision is made
in Quarantine 37 for the entry under
special permit of limited quantities of
otherwise prohibited nursery stock and
other plants for the purpose of keeping
the country supplied with new varieties
and necessary propagating stock. The
question of availability of plant mate-
rial for which special permits are re-
quested is passed upon by a committee
of specialists of the bureau of plant
industry. The issuance of such permits
is then based on the recommendations
of this committee.
"Three hundred and eleven special
permits were issued during the period
from June 1, 1919, the date on which
Quarantine 37 became effective, to June
30, 1920, a period of thirteen months.
These permits included a wide range of
plant materials and are each issued for
a specific importation of plants. The
importations authorized have already
been made in the case of approximately
174 of these permits. The other permits
have been canceled for a number of
reasons, as a general rule because of the
inability of the grower tp secure the de-
sired stock or because of transportation
difficulties abroad and other similar
hindrances.
"The material thus imported was
found as a whole fairly free from
dangerous insects or fungous diseases.
It was, however, necessary to destroy
several shipments because of the pres-
ence of injurious insects which could
not have been eliminated by any known
treatment. In spite of the fact that
emphasis has been made at all times on
the necessity of bringing in plant ma-
terial free of sand, soil or earth about
the roots, twelve shipments were found
the roots of which in whole or in part
were embedded in soil. These shipments
were returned to country of origin or
destroyed.
"A large number of special permits
have been issued also for the fiscal year
ending June 30, 1921. The record of
these permits is not included in the
table on page 20, which gives the
classes of plants actually imported up
to June 30, 1920, and the country of

Inspection of Imported Plants.
"In spite of the reduction in the num-
ber of plants imported into the United
States during the last fiscal year as the
result of Quarantine 37, the total num-
ber of different kinds of insects (290
species) intercepted exceeds tjiat of any
previous fiscal year. This increase in
the number of interceptions can proba-
bly be explained by the fact that all
plants imported under special permit
were examined under very favorable
conditions by expert inspectors at Wash-
ington, D. C. Moreover, .this material
ceptions have been made at the port of
New York, including a large shipment
of Italian broonfcorn infested with the
European corn borer. A careful inspec-
tion has been made of ali foreign boats
arriving at New Orleans, 1,608 in num-
ber, 289 of which carried contraband
material either as cargo, ships' stores
or in passengers' baggage. Exclusive
of Canadian arrivals, 195 foreign ships
were inspected at Seattle, seventy-seven
of which carried contraband material.
The work at this port also included the
supervision of cotton fumigation and
corn sterilization. ^ ,
"In order to strengthen the plant
quarantine service of the state of Cali-
fornia, the board has placed a trained
pathological inspector at San Francisco
to assist and cooperate with the state
inspectors at that port. As in the past,
the plant quarantine inspectors of Cali-
fornia as well as of the state of Florida
are carried as collaborators of this
board. In order to further safeguard
against the entry into the United States
of quarantined products or injurious in-
sects and plant diseases, inspectors have
been placed at Portland, Ore.; Philadel-
phia, Pa., and Norfolk, Va. Moreover,
it is proposed to study the conditions at
other ports and if necessary establish
an inspection service at the places pre-
senting the most danger. It is tinder-
stood that all port work is conducted in
close cooperation with the customs offi-
cials.

was possible to give each plant a very
careful examination. Some of the more
important interceptions follow: Gypsy

Mexico; potato tuber moth from Aus-
tralia, Chile, Costa Rica and Panama;
the sorrel cutworm from France; spiny

fruit fly from Jamaica and Cuba; injur-
ious avocado weevils from Mexico,

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

ANTS ON SWEET PEAS.
I should like to ask you what can be
done to get rid of a bad dose of tan
ants. I have a ground bed of sweet
peas and it is just full of them. Thoy
come out by the thousands and are
spreading to other beds. Some have
wings and can fly. Please answer at
once, as every day they spread farther.
I tried sugar and Paris green, but they
would not oat it. M. T.— Md. '
caused by the unseasonably • warm
weather of the last autumn.
If the plants arc in a growing con-
dition, the dried leaves about the base
can be ignored, but if the condition com-
plained of seems to affect the growth of
the plants, the bed should be promptly
resown. It does not pay to worry along
with sick plants of any kind in a green-
house, especially when they can be a's
easily replaced as sweet peas. If there
is active growth, white feeding roots
will be found two feet below the sur-
face. Unless the soil is fundamentally
wrong, planting at this date in the
same soil can be safely advised. How-
ever, the soil should not be used for
early planting, as starting plants in the
heat of the summer is working against
the natural requirements of sweet peas.
In their weakened condition they are
easily attacked by any fungus which ac-
cumulates in old soil, while the vigorous
plants, produced in a lower temperature,
are able to ward it off. G. J. B.
ATFECTED BY BLACK LEG.
I should like to know about a disease
that has struck my winter-blooming
sweet peas. I planted my peas from
pots after having used Mulford's cul-
ture on the seed. They seemed to grow
well for a while, but when they were
beginning to bloom all the leaves close
to the ground dried up. On close exam-
ination I found that the roots had suf-
fered the same fate. What is the cause
and the remedy? H. H. — Colo.
FALL VS. SPEING PLOWING.
Would you advise fall or spring plow-
ing for a field that we intend to put
out in hardwood cuttings?
A. G.— O.
The plants are probably affected with
the fungus known locally as black leg,
Late fall would be preferable to spring
plowing, but in all probability the
ground in your section is tightly frozen
now. Therefore, you should plow in
spring as soon as possible after the
frost has left the ground and it is dry
enough to be workable. W. C.

OLD FRONDS ON FERNS.-
I am sending you a fern. Please
notice the dried-up and crippled ends
of the leaves and, if possible, tell me
how to cure or prevent this trouble.
This happens to perfectly healthy plants
and seems to be due to a fungus, which
spreads quite fast. G. E. B. — Mo.
I do not find anything seriously the
matter with the sample fern. The crip-
pled and dried-up ends complained of
were on the old fronds and should be
removed anyway. The young growths
were all right and so were the roots.
I noticed a few traces of white fly on
the older frondsi which should be closely
looked after and removed. I should
also suggest giving the plants a little
more water at the roots, the soil in the
center of the root ball of the plant sent
being quite dry. M. P.
ADIANTUM UNDER BENCHES.
I have been trying to get adiantum
to grow, but seedlings which I have
bought, even 2Vi-inch plants, die, I
have a new greenhouse and, to my sur-
prise, underneath the benches have
come up thick patches of adiantum — I
think the cuneatum variety. I cannot
imagine where the seed came from. Will
you tell me the best way I can take care
of these seedlings? The soil under the
benches is poor and hard, but naturally
moist. I greatly wish to succeed with
these plants. S. J. R. — Tenn.
The seedling adiantums may be lifted
from the ground beneath the benches
of your greenhouse and transplanted to
shallow trays or flats, the most con-
venient tool for the purpose being a
wooden label with the end sharpened to
a knife edge. With such a tool as this
the seedlings may be taken up in small
patches, about the size of a finger-nail,
and transferred to the surface of the
soil in the trays, where they should be
gently pressed down. As soon as the
tray is filled, it should be carefully

watered and placed in a partly shaded
place in the greenhouse. The seedlings
should be protected from drafts by
covering with paper during the day for
a week or so, after which they may be
more exposed to the air, but not to full
sunshine.
After the young plants have put out a
leaf or two, they may be potted in small
pots, but must still be protected from
too much sun and air until they become
established. A night temperature of
58 to 60 degrees during the winter is
satisfactory to these plants and almost

The ferns in question are infested
with fern scale, an insect that is fre-
quently found on these plants. A close
examination of the plants will show
some of the large, light brown female
insects and a much greater number of
the small, white n^ale insects. The
attacks of these inseots soon produce
yellow spots on the foliage. Dipping
and spraying with solutions of whale
oil soap and nicotine seeim to be among
the best methods of fighting this pest,
and by cutting out some of the most
seriously affected foliage the stock of

The Market.
The prophets who predicted a poor
Christmas for the flower growers saw, in •
a way, their predictions verified. It cer-
tainly was a poor Christmas trade if we
count upon a fulfillment of growers 'hopes
and the attainment of the price standard
which many of them set. And right here
it might be said that this price-setting is
entirely out of place and conflicting with
a healthy demand for perishable goods.
By this is not meant a pre-Christmas
quotation, for if the majority of retailers
are to be believed, they could have dou-
bled their sales of cut flowers if the
wholesalers had quoted prices a day or
two in advance. To put one case as a
general example, a retailer was asked for
a price on hybrid tea roses for Christmas
day delivery, and he had to make a safe
guess on cost, so safe that he did not get

^ PLANTING TABLE FOR ^ IT
J i^ GIGANTEUM LILIES ^
ac
ac
ac
THE EEVTEW receives so many queries in regard to giganteum lilies, for Easter
mostly, but in some measure for other occasions, that it has endeavored to
arrange a planting table, with the dates of starting, the approximate time of
flowering, and the average temperature needed to bring them into bloom at various
periods. Of course these dates are merely approximate; severe cold or intense heat
may retard or advance plants, and long spells of dark weather will also have their
effect. While some lilies do well when grown comparatively cool, the best success
with giganteums is always secured when they are grown warm from the start.
Moderate watering is necessary until the pots are nicely filled with roots; then
an ample supply is needed. Fresh bulbs require more water at all stages of their
growth than cold storage ones; they also require a longer season to come to
perfection.
Prom January to .Tune the small sizes of cold storage bulbs give most satis-
faction; from June until early October the 7 to 9 and 9 to 10 sizes do better, while
during the last three months of the year, when fresh bulbs are to be had, the
larger sizes should be used.
As lilies make all their best roots from the tops, and not from the bottj>ms of
the bulbs, it is an advantage to start them in 4-inch pots, later shifting and burying
the bulbs deeper in 6-inch pots, or to pot in 6-inch pots at once, setting the bulb
well down, and, after growth has started, to give a top-dressing.

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

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

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

good Christmas business was reported.
The Holland Gardens, on Holland
avenue, had some good cyclamens, all
of which were disposed of. A new de-

how nwich I have not yet been able to

divided between plants and flowers, al-
though there were a greater number of

In plants, poinsettias and cyclamens
were first, with heather and berried
plants close behind. I'ans of jonquils

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

VEGETABLE NOMENCLATURE.
Committee Issues Second Report.
Some time ago a report was made of
the work of the joint committee on vege-
table nomenclature from the American
Seed Trade Association and the Vege-
table Growers' Association of America.
As a part of the program, a detailed
study of the various vegetable varieties
was to be made by men best qualified to
judge from their close experience with
these particular crops.
Twenty-one committees were ap-
pointed, and we believe that in order
that those interested in this work may
know how to judge of the importance and
the value that may be forthcoming, it is
well worth wliile to have public an-
nouncement made of the personnel at
work on it.
Members of Sub-Committees.
The following men were appointed by
this committee, and have signified their
willingness to undertake the work. As
a matter of fact, at the time of writing
many committees have already made pre-
liminary reports, and considerable data
is in hand, which indicates real jirogress.
Tlic lir^'t ]M'rson named in each sub-
coiuinitteo is cliairman tlicreof.
Tliroufrh an error in our former report,
the name of Dr. Will W. Tracy, Sr., was
mentioned as a guest. In reality he was
officially appointed on the vegetable
growers' branch of the committee by
President K. A. Dunbar and at the time
of the last Washington meeting was
made member exofficio of all of the sub-
('(unmittees mentioned below, this ap-
jiointnicnt being made in view of his vast
kiHiwltMlge (pf American Aarieties of
vegetables. It is a matter of great satis-
faction that Dr. Tracy's health is so
greatly improved. The sub-committees

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

We give them. You get them.
"We both have them.
Happy New Year!
William F. Gude celebrates his fifty-
third birthday January 4,
Only six weeks till St. Valentine's
day and then six weeks till Easter.
Social activities presage an excellent
New Year's business to complete a most
satisfactory holiday season.
Complaints of high prices of cut
flowers were most prevalent in localities
where counter trade was formerly heav-
iest.
Richard Vincent and his estimable
and widely known wife celebrated their
fifty-third wedding anniversary at White
Marsh, Md., December 26.
Charity, runs the adage, begins at
home. And so, we might remember, does
education of the public in floral decora-
tion. How about your store?
Acknowledge receipt of telegraph or-
ders promptly. A 1-cent post card is
enough to reassure the sending florist
of the correctness of telegraphic trans-
mission.
Ready-made advertising has been
found by florists in the verses, "Give
Them the Flowers Now," by Leigh M.
Hodges, which several have reprinted
from Joe Mitchell Chapell's "Heart
Throbs. "
Thrift docs not mean saving, but
spending and spending wisely. The
thrifty grower is lie who knows when to
spend largely in order to get large re-
turns. Unwise saving is as wasteful as
prodigal spending.
Those little 1-inch ads in the Pink
Part are constantly attracting more re-
tailers, because $1.25 a week is easily
recompensed by the telegraph orders re-
ceived. Nearly 700 florists arc repre-
sented in that section this week.
Almost a year ago the King of the
Belgians bestowed upon Sir Harry J.
Veitch the cross of Ofiiccr of the Order
of the Crown in recognition of his serv-
ices in connection with the war horticul-
tural relief fund. He is now the recipi-
ent of the cross of Chevalier of tlie Le-
gion of Honor from the President of
France.
Growers of high quality stock complain
the least of a poor market.
There is no better rule of business
conduct than the golden one. Apply
it in the matter of answering inquiries
and Complaints as well as in filling orders
and paying bills promptly.
Once in a while forget you 're the pro-
prietor and walk into your store or your
greenhouse as if you were a critical
stranger. Sometimes you'll see things
that way you never noticed before.
The "Own Your Home" and "Home
Beautiful" exhibitions offer opportu-
nities during the spring for florists to
present their wares to the public by co-
operation with local furniture houses. Do
you know when the show is to be held

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

certain he spends a good bit of money
elsewhere than in The Review.

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

WE HOPE AND BELIEVE ALL OUR CUSTOMERS HAD
A BIG CHRISTMAS CB
AND WE WISH THE TRADE
A PROSPEROUS NEW YEAR
It is a pleasure to feel that at Christmas and all through 1920 our
House has contributed (with good stock and good service) to the pros-
perity and progress of large numbers of Florists. To all those who
have found it advantageous to deal with us in 1920 we say that in 1921
we shall fill orders in the same good manner as in the past. To those
who may not have been wholly satisfied with some other source of sup-
ply we say, "Try us— we HAVE the stock and the will to serve your
interests as our own." We never lose sight of the fact that OUR pro-
gress depends on the prosperity of OUR CUSTOMERS.
January Flowers
We call attention to our supply of Long, Special and
Extra Special Roses. There may be equally good Roses
elsewhere, but there surely are none finer and our suppb^
is so large we expect to be able to fill all orders.
Carnations again are in fair supply and we shall be able to take good
care of some new customers in the New Year.
No matter what you need, we have it here — a full line

The Florists^ Review
Decejiuek 30, I'Jiiii
ing booked no orders themselves, placed
no orders. There were hardly any-
sweet peas.
It was the scarcity of carnations
which cut the biggest hole in the Christ-
mas sales, and even at that there were
carnations which went to waste; some
of the growers had held their stock back
until it was in such condition no one
would buy it. Happily, there was not
much of this.
The supply of poinsettias was much
smaller this year than last, with the re-
sult they sold cleaner than last season.
"White flowers never are in strong de-
mand for Christmas and Paper Whites,
Eomans, Easter lilies and callas ex-
perienced no special rise in price, but
sold nearly clean.
The Christmas supply of pot plants
was limited, both in quantity and vari-
ety. Many of the smaller stores made
little attempt to handle cut flowers,
'buying only after they had taken orders,
but the scarcity of pot plants forced
the larger stores to take up cut flowers
in a stronger way than they have in re-
cent years. It is r&ported that some of
the retail stores had stock left, both
plants and cut flowers, but the way the
market opened December 27 indicated
that the retailers must nearly all have
been pretty well cleaned out. The sup-
ply of stock this week is larger than
had been expected, in view of the cold
weather and the closeness with which
everything was cut before Christmas.
The brighter weather has improved the
quality and there is a general feeling
that Christmas was good enough to lend
confidence to the view that January
will be another prosperous month in the
trade.
Various Notes.
"With three rooms on the second floor
of the Palmer House, Mangel was able
to handle expeditiously a Christmas
business that rivaled last year's record.
Cut flowers sold remarkably well, while
plants were cleaned out. A special
order of 150 poinsettia plants was re-
ceived the following Monday, to be used
for decorations of the Chicago City
bank banquet at the Hamilton Club that
evening.
Pot coverings have much to do with
the sale of plants at Christmas, in the
estimation of Walter W. Adams, and
some novel and attractive arrangements
were to be seen at his store, at State
and Division streets.
Paul E. Weiss and C. J. Michclsen and
their wives expect to leave January 16
to spend a few days with E. C. Amling,
at Sawtelle, Cal.
Andrew Chronis forsook liis place at
the office of the Eaklios restaurants to
oversee the big Christmas business of
the Alpha Floral Co. the latter half of
the week. Orders were less numerous,
but were of larger amounts than a
year ago, and the total was not far from
last year's.
P. C. Schupp left Miami, Fla., Decem-
ber 20. where the thcrmoniptcr regis-
tered 85 degrees, and arrived in Chicago
Christmas eve, to find the temperature
10 degrees. Mr. Schupp enjoyed the
warmth, but Mrs. Schupp prefers Chi-
cago's climate.
"That's the way they come!"
"Thev" referred to twenty cards left
by one customer, each to accompany a
Christmas gift of a dozen roses, a not
unusual order at the store of the E.
Wienhoeber Co. during the days pre-
ceding Christmas. Despite the cold
weather, a large stock of plants was dc-

livered in good shape, and the holiday 's
business was excellent. In preparation
for the holiday the conservatories had
been filled with blooming plants, where
patrons might make their selection eas-
ily. Though the stock such as he had
displayed in former years was not to be
had from growers this season, Mr. Wien-
hoeber said, the public's demand was
as strong as ever. The difficulty he ex-
perienced was to secure the grade of
stock desired, not to sell it.
It was the misfortune of Mr. Cunis,
of Cunis & Billerbeck, to be badly poi-
soned by handling primulas for Christ-
mas. Rubbing his face, the poison took
hold there and an eye was closed. These
partners are brothers-in-law. They had
a good Christmas business at their place,
1523 North Harding avenue, selling
plants principally.
So marked was the increase in Christ-
mas business over that of a year ago
at the store of the Bohannon Floral Co.
that Mrs. Stuart attributes it to the in-
tervening growth of the store's clientele
rather than to general conditions, which
were not proportionately favorable.
G. C. Weiland is credited with send-
ing the first frcesia to market this sea-
son. It was cut December 28, fine, long
Purity.
It was a sad Christmas for Adolph
Malchovv and his wife, who have store,
greenhouse and residence all at the same
address, 3743 and 3745 North Clark
street. His eldest daughter was ill of
scarlet fever and the family were un-
der quarantine. Mr. Malchow worked
night and day, getting a little sleep in
the boiler shed, a not uncommon ex-
perience for florists at holiday times,
but the little girl, only 14 years of age,
became steadily worse and passed away
in the night of December 28.
About sixty men, including travelers,
district salesmen and branch factory
managers, are here this week for the
annual convention of the staff of the
A. L. Randall Co. The affair began
with a luncheon December 28 and will
close with a dinner, entertainment and
dance at the Palmer House, December
30, at which from 250 to 300 are ex-
{K'cted to be present.
A marked decrease in cash sales was
observed this Christmas by W. J.

NEWPORT, R. I.
The volumo of business among tlic
florists of this city and vicinity this
year compared (|uito favorably with
that of former years, especially in the
demand for greens of every description,
of which there was a generally good
supply. Mistletoe was somewhat scarce
and brought unusually good prices. The
call for cut flowers was not so large as
it has been in some previous years, but
was fully in proportion to the supply.
The assortment of plants was consider-
ably curtailed as compared with other
Yulctides, because of the dearth of
stock on account of the embargo. Every-
body reports good business and com-
plete clean-ups. Weather conditions
were ideal for deliveries. The holiday
season can be considered entirely suc-
cessful.

visitor in New York last week.

Prices were no higher than last year
nt this time, although coal and all the
items that assist production liave been
at a premium during the twelve months
just drawing to a close. All things con-
sidered, tliere can be little doubt, if
proof were needed, that the cut flower
business is quite equal to maintaining
its position throughout the period of ad-
justment that has already settled upon
the country, a consoling reflection in
the circumstances.

than 200 per cent on such beautiful
stock would bo below the dignity of tho

The Market.
The weather for the week ending with
Christmas day was perfect— clear and
cold. There was more sunshine than
for many weeks before.
CJiristmas business both in cut flowers
and in plants was extremely satisfac-
tory, with here and there an occasional
florist contrary-minded. Wliile it is too
early to tell positively, the impression
prevails that tho volume of business was
larger than that of last year, which is
extraordinary under the circumstances.
By that is meant that other businesses
are dull.
Roses formed a large part of the stock
in cut flowers. The fancy grades of
roses, those bringing over 50 cents each,
were a little in excess of tlie demand as
tlie holiday approaclied. Price conces-
sions sold most of this stock, but when
the quantity sold at listed prices is con-
sidered, those reduced were few in num-
ber. Premier was the principal rose.
It ranged from 7o cents down and
was exceedingly fine. Columbia came
next, tlicn Russell. Columbia averaged
much lower in price than it did last year
and than Premier did this year. Russell
showed strongly in the medium grades.
Pilgrim was a good seller. Ojihelia was
fine and much short of the demand.
Beauties brought $1.50; many more
could have been used. Iladley reached
$1 for the fancies and. was quite scarce.
Tlicre was some good medium Maryland
and fine Double White Killarney. Kil-
larney was unimportant.
Tlie carnation supply was mediocre.
The quality in the main was good. Lad-
die led at $25 per hundred; in the same
class were a few red. Mrs. Ward and
Pink Delight brought $'20 for the best.
All the good ordinary carnations
brought $12 to $!'>, with white trailing
in the rear.
Cattleyas sold surprisingly well at all
the way from $1 to $2 each. The former
wore Percivaliana, tlie latter Triana>.
There were some vandas and oncidiums,
but tho Imyers did not consider the
fancy cyprijicdiums good value. All the
miscellaneous flowers sold well accord-
ing to tlieir several degrees of excel-
lence except Narcissus Pa])er White,
which was enormously overdone, and
Stevia scrrata. Asparagus was also in
oversupply.
The feature of the plant market was
the demand for cyclamens, which met
with strong support, and for oranges
and poinsettias, which were short.
Really good jilnnts were extremely
scarce. There were a good many poor
ones.
Taken all in all, tho business for
Christmas was most satisfaotciry in the
quality of the stock offered. The tim-
ing was better, far better, than usual,
and there was much less holding, the
greatest of all holiday evils.
The Outlook.
It so chanced that there were a few
spare moments in the busy oflice of the
Third floor of the Bulletin building,
where so many florists find their way,

so tlic o)>portunity wns seized to ask
Mr. Ligtiit regarding the effect on the
<'ut flower market of growers of carna-
ii(»iis ;ind other flowers turning their
.■ittention to roses. "I think," Mr.
Liggit replied, "that, should the move-
ment pontinue, roses will in time beeonic
less profitnble than other flowers. There
must be variety. Take, for example, the
case of the rose, Columbia. Everybody
is growing Columbia today. All the
stores liavc it. A customer who wants
roses doesn't always want Columbia,
lie may want a red rose or a white or a
yellow. He may even prefer a different
shade of pink. To my mind Butterfly
is a more beautiful pink rose than Co-
lumbia, but, of course, that is only an
individual opinion.

stance, has been much higher than with
us. As their industry is dull, a decline
is natural. With us business is active.
We feel that our employees have found
it an effort to make ends meet at the
present high cost of living. Until we
are satisfied that our employees can
live comfortably on leas money, we shall
not ask them to accept a reduction in
salaries. The company does ask," Mr.
Brunswick continued, "that each em-
ployee do his or her best, because on
this largely depends the company's abil-
ity to maintain a fair, living wage
scale."

Christmas Business.
It was not a record-breaking Christmas
trade. Few expected trade would reacli
last year's figures; nothing warranted
it. With one-fourth of the former em-
ployees in factories and Avorkshops idle,
millions of dollars locked up in banks,
belonging to 7:"),000 depositors, and the
continued liquidation in securities and
labor, it was unreasonable to expect this
to be a.banner Christmas, but a splendid
volume of business was done and every-
one seems well satisfied with the results.
Eoses sold well. Select American
Beauties made $150 per hundred. Extra
fine Hadley and Crusader sold at $75 to
$100, while Premier, Columbia, Mme.
Butterfly, Hoosier Beauty, Miller and
Stanley' made from $40 to $50 down-
ward. Killarneys sold more slowly than
other sorts, and on whites prices ruled
as low as $G to $S per hundred on short-
stemmed stock, other varieties going at
from $10 upward.
Carnations sold extremely well, every
flower cleaning up. The average price
was in the neighborhood of $12 per hun-
dred, but some fancy flowers sold at
from $15 to $25. A limited number
reached the higher figure. Matchless, as
usual, was harder to move than any
other variety. Of violets the supply was
limited at $3 to $3.50 per hundred, and
sweet peas were not abundant.
Cut poinsettias made $3 to $6 per
dozen bracts, but there were a number
unsold. There was also considerable sur-
plus of stevia, Paper Whites and lilies.
Wallflowers only sold moderately well,
and few marguerites and snapdragons
were offered. There was an oversupply
of mignonette. Chrysanthemums made
their farewell bow, but did not sell spe-
cially well. They presented a passe ap-
pearance and buyers were tired of them.
There was a fair crop of colored bou-
vardia, which sold well. White is now
practically out of the market. Cypri-
pediums were plentiful and sufiicient
Cattleya Percivaliana and Triana; came
in to supply all demands. Trianaj aver-
aged $18 per dozen, with Percivaliana
lower.
In pot plants cyclamens were the lead-
ers and retailed at $4 to $12 each, with
speaimens higher. Begonias came sec-
ond in favor, with Melior easily the
leader. Mrs. Peterson onlv sold mod-

required by each Krati-rniil and Labor oreanizaton.
The tlori.st is saved time and worry in the nuisance of lettering, as well as the
keeping of such a stock of wire frames, and different colored (lowers. Just use such
(lowers as you have and then atlach a FK.\T-M with paste to the chiffon, or by the
hanger that comes for each, as a card, and that is all there Is to it, excepting the
comment and commendatory talk for the tlorist.

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

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

MCHIGAN CUT FLOWER EXCHANGE, 264-266 Randolph St., Detroit, ffich.
tion ceremonies on several occasions.
At his funeral services florists and
Masonic and military bodies were large-
ly represented.
At Peiin's, Christmas business fell
about ten per cent below that of 1919.
Roses were the leaders in cut flowers,
with cyclamens, begonias and poinset-
tias among pot plants.
George W. Hamer, the courteous as-
sistant manager of the Flower Exchange,
sufTered a painful injury December 21
when returning home from the annual
meeting of the Gardeners' and Florists'
Club. He was struck a hard blow above
the left eye by an iron pipe protruding
from a truck, which he did not see, and
several stitches were necessary. He is
progressing satisfactorily.
(h-owers of pot plants report excellent
sak's, but tliey have a larger surplus
than a year ago, especially of poinset-
tias, which were heavily overdone, per-
haps due to last year's shortage. A large
number of cyclamens and begonias were
unsold, but there is a market for these
after the holidays, while poinsettias are
a dead loss.
The Symphony Flower Shop, on Hun-
■tington avenue, had a good Christmas
business. Among others it had decora-
tions or large orders from the Christian
Science church. Page & Shaw and the
Oliver Ditson Co.
The annual meeting of the Massa-
chusetts Horticultural Society will be
held January 8. The new president, A.
C. Burrage, will deliver an address, and
reports of the various committees will
be heard.
Victor Heurlin, son of Julius Heurlin,
of the Blue Hills Nurseries, left Doeem-
ber 18 with a friend for a motorcycle
trip to California, which they propose
to cover thoroughly. The venturesome
pair expect to reach home ere nursery
stock is dug in the spring.
The William H. Elliott Co. is receiv-
ing from Madbury, N. H., a superb lot
of Hadley, Crusader, Mme. Butterfly,
Pilgrim, Premier, Miller and Columbia
roses. The company is the largest local
grower of Cecile Brunncr.
Carrie E. Ball, of Southboro, had a
splendid crop of Enchantress Supreme,
Ward, Beacon and Matchless carnations,
and a fine lot of a crimson seedling of
her own raising.
At Carbone's, B. F. Letson reports
business equal to that of 1919. I noticed
here a fine lot of pink poinsettias and

camellias and a wealth of other flower-
ings and decorative plants.
Both of the stores of T. V. (jitlvin,
Inc., on Park street and on Boylston
street, did a big Christinas business,
well lip to that of 1919. No firm handles
more fine specimen ])lants or lnt(li-};ra(lo
cut flowers than Galvin's, and tlu;
crowded condition of the two stores last
week attested their popularity.
The trade learns with much regret of
the serious illness of Herbert W. Schlaff-
horst, secretary-attorney of the commit-
tee organized some time ago to secure
a modification of Quarantine 37. Mr.
Sclilaffhorst, who was not naturally of
a rugged constitution, worked hard and
faithfully to secure necessary data to
place before the F. H. B., and his resig-
nation from his oflice and the fear that
his illness iiiav be of such a nature as to
practically confine him to bed hereafter
will be received with general regret.

boiler in a pit, concrete-lined, and the
concrete has been waterproofed on both
walls and floor, but water comes
through.

AMXaiOAB SEED TRADE ABSOOIATIOH.
PrMldent. H. O. Bastlaga, AtUnU, Oa.; mc-
Ntarj-treainrcr, 0. B. Kendal, OlaTaland, O.
Imports of seeds and bulbs during
the. first thirteen months of enforcement
of Quarantine 37 are given on another
page of this issue, under the heading,
' ' One Year of Quarantine. ' '
The second report of the joint com-
mittee on vegetable nomenclature from
the American Seed Trade Association and
the Vegetable Growers' Association of
America appears on page 21 of this issue.
Not over fifteen per cent of the 1920
crop of sweet clover seed has been sold
by growers. They are pooling much of
their aeed for sale later, when they hope
that more interest will be displayed by
seedsmen in this commodity.
California seed growers, preparing to
take the road in quest of 1921 growing
contracts, are not in buoyant spirits.
The readjustment of production costs has
not progressed far enough for them to
quote prices in line with the present mar-
ket. Indications do not point to a large
acreage under seed crops in California
in 1921.
SEED ANALYSTS MEET.
Annual Sessions at Chicago.
The thirteenth annual meeting of the
Association of OfScial Seed Analysts of
North America was held at the Congress
hotel, Chicago, December 27 to 29.
The convention commenced Monday
morning, December 27, at 10 a. m., with
a business session and was called to
order by President Edgar Brown, of
Washington, D. C. The vice-president,
C. H. Waldron, of North Carolina, was
unable to be i)rcsent and the only other
ofiicer in attendance was Secretary-
treasurer A. L. Stone, of Wisconsin.
After the reports of the secretary-
treasurer and the various committees,
the president addressed the meeting on
the subject of "Seed Testing."
Many Addresses.
Tuesday, December 28, was an all-day
open session and some interesting ad-
dresses were delivered. Members un-
able to be present included W. 0. Whit-
comb, of Montana; W. L. Goss, of the
United States Department of Agricul-
ture, Wasliington, D. C. ; Jennie Sales
Jones, of Virginia, and F. H* Hillman,
of Washington, D. C. The other ad-
dresses were given in ])erson. The pro-
gram of addresses was as follows:

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

THE ANNUAL INVASION.
The annual invasion by the army of
bulb salesmen is in stronger force this
year than ever before in the history of
the trade. Conditions in Holland and
in the rest of Europe have turned to-
ward America the thoughts of many
houses which heretofore have sold their
bulbs only in P^urope. Numerous con-
cerns are sending men here this year for
the first time and older exporters to the
I'uited States are sending stronger dele-
gations of salesmen than in other years.
The advance guard arrived in November,
not counting the resident representa-
tives, who st;iy here all the year around.
On the Nieuw Amsterdam, wliich reached
New York just before Christmas, there
were fourteen bulb salesmen and it may
be a matter of note that more than half
of them were in the first cabin. The
Rotterdam is due to dock within a few
days with more than thirty bulb trav-
elers on board. Well informed Holland-
ers say that nearly, if not quite, 150
different exporting houses will have rep-
resentatives in America by the end of
.January and that the total number of
men here in th(> interest of those ex-

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

porters will be close to 225. These arc
record figures.
The reason why llollnml is canvassing
America so assiduously this year is
found in the depressed condition of bulb
business throughout Europe and the
largely increased stocks in Holland in
the preceding two seasons. It is neces-
sary to find an outlet for greater quan-
tities of bulbs than ever before.

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

over. I can well remember the time
when florists had to depend upon ordi-
nary wagons for deliveries and for sev-
eral weeks after either of the big flower
days we lived in constant dread. For
every item of stock that was ruined in
delivery, we lost not only our gross
profit, but the original cost as well.
This, of course, instead of yielding a
net profit, became an item that had to
be charged to overhead, and it is easy
to see that such losses as these simply
ate up that much of the profit on the
successfully delivered stock.
Good Shipping Department.
Let us note how a well organized ship-
ping department can reduce these losses
to a minimum. First, when a plant is
sold and tagged it is sent to the ship-
ping room. There it is carefully wrapped
to protect it from cold or bruising. The
careful shipping clerk will see that the
card is properly secured, and the proper
address plainly written and securely at-
tached. Next comes a most important
part, and that is the proper routing.
This should be done so that the order
will reach its destination in the shortest
period of time, for the plant 's or flow-
ers' sake. A properly routed order in
these days of automobile delivery will
save money on the cost of delivery, also.

one up-to-the-minute florist. He uses

divided off into stalls, each stall repre-

livery it is brought to him. He decides
what route it is to go by and hands out
a number, which is attached. An as-
sistant enters it upon a like-numbered
list, and when the delivery man comes
in, all that is necessary is for him to
load the orders in that particular stall.
The driver goes to the shipping clerk,
gets his list and is off. In this method
there is no bustle or confusion.
Saving Offsets Trouble.
This may seem, from reading, like a
lot of trouble. "Well, I have watched it
work and I want to say right here that
it is not one-half the trouble that I have
so often seen under other practices —
several men picking over a lot of or-
ders, having to stop to read the tags,
holding a list up against a wall and
trying to write. If such a system does
require several more people, their sal-
ary is more than saved in damaged
stock, to say nothing of the quicker dis-
patch and the satisfaction of knowing
your stock is being delivered in the best
condition possible. If you have not such
a system, start one and it will not be
long before you will wonder how you
. ever got along in the old haphazard way.
Ponder this well and see if one of the

Christmas was not that of deliveries.
Another problem is caused by the
lack of many of the old blooming plants
to which we have all been accustomed.
For instance, we will take one item,
azaleas. Did you ever stop to think that
these spoiled usf In a manner, it was
just a case of bringing in the plants,
perhaps wrapping the pots with a piece
of matting or adding a bit of ribbon,
and we had a fine, showy stock ready for
the customer. It did not require a
florist to do this; anyone could have
done it, and the plants sold themselves.
In these days it is necessary for the
florist to display his skill. You must
show the public something just as at-
tractive, and to the credit of some of

the florists I will s.ay that they have
not only done this, but have surpassed
it. One of the principal methods of ac-
complishing this is by made-up baskets
of plants. From the arrangement of
these anyone can soon see whether one
is a florist or not. Tliis is where com-
bination counts, both as to the artistic
qualities of the basket and' its lasting
qualities. Here is where the greatest
precaution should be used in selecting
your plants. If this is well done, your
i)asket will give much more satisfaction
lo the purchaser than the plant that
has perhaps been forced in order to get
it in on time. There is much more art
in arranging a good ])lant basket than
there is in one of cut flowers. In these
days of metal linings for baskets it is
only necessary to arrange your cut
flowers loosely, the combination, of
course, considered, and you have an
artistic basket. Yet a man will often
stand before a bench of the finest plants,
and the baskets he will turn out are
])Oor, to say the least. Let your baskets
i)e a good combination of foliage and
blooming plants, arrange these with an
eye to their lasting qualities, and after
tiic bloom is gone your basket will still
continue to give satisfaction.
Originality a Great Asset.
In these days of keen competition the
florist who does not use his brains is
doomed. Eacli florist can rest assured
he has a competitor some jilace near
him who is lying awake at niglit using
his. It is only a matter of time until
the pul)lic will become aware of it, and
so will the florist, no matter how well
he is established, if he is in iUo habit
of following the line of least resistance.
The point I wish to emphasize is, don't
be afraid to try out new ideas. Try
to have something unique. Try your
ideas out gradually, and it will not be

This is a splendid time to make notes on
where you fell sliort at Christmas. Be
honest with yourself; then jilace these
notes in a conspicuous place for future
reference. Remember, Easter is .iust
ahead, and experience is the safest and
best teacher if you will be guided by
it. " Tate. "

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

this itself, nor can it sell its roses direct
to nurserymen who would propagate
them. The matter of enlisting the aid
of the American Rose Society was
brought up some time ago, and at this
meeting it was officially discussed from
all angles and was finally turned over
to a committee with power to act. All
rose growers will look forward with
great interest to what can be done, for
the name Van Fleet attached to a rose
at once guarantees its value.
The matter of the incorporation of the
American Rose Society was again dis-
cussed and it was decided that it would
be to the best interest of the society to
incorporate it as soon as possible.
Prizes Offered for Rose Show.
An invitation from the Massachu-
setts Horticultural Society to cooperate
in the rose show to be held in Boston
in April, 1921, was read and referred
to a special committee for definite ac-
tion. In this connection two gold medals
have already been offered by members
of the trade in the name of the American
Rose Society, and it is hoped that other
medals will be forthcoming shortly.
The present membership of the society
is reported as over 2,500, and it is hoped

the advance in membership dues, from
$2 to $3, will not materially affect this
membership; indeed, we hope for a large
increase in 1921, for its popularity is
growing by leaps and bounds at the
present time.
The demand for back copies of the
Rose Annual continues, and the supply
has become so depleted that the price
has been advanced to .$.3 a copv for the
1917, 1918, 1919 and 1920 Annuals, and
$5 for the 1916 edition. On account of
this limited supply, all persons not mem-
bers who desire them should apply at
once. The 1921 Annual will be pub-
lished in March, and the publication of
3,000 has been authorized.

club Tuesday evening, December 14. As
it was the annual meeting, the election
of oflicers took ])lace. The following
were elected to serve for the next year:
President, Wallace W. Thomson; vice-
president, John R. Andrews; secretary,
George B. Marchant; treasurer, J. Al-
bert Brodrib. The reports of the sec-
retary and treasurer for the last year
were read and showed the club to be in
fine condition both as to membership and
finances. The club has grown consider-
ably in the last year. The average at-
tendance has also improved. Former

President Joseph F. Coombs was unable
to serve any longer, having served four
years, and by way of showing apprecia-
tion of his valuable services in keeping
up the interest of the members, the
club presented Mr. Coombs with a
United States army saber, belt and knot.
An appropriate inscription was engraved
on the scabbard. Mr. Coombs has been
elected a lieutenant in the governor's
foot guards. J. R. Andrews made the
presentation speech, to which Mr.
Coombs replied.
Spear & McManus occupied their new
store in time for the Christmas rush.
The violet crop at the W. W. Thom-
son Co. greenhouses was not up to stand-
ard for the Christmas trade. The sweet
peas, although growing finely, did not
jiroduce many blooms, the result of the.
dark weather.
Thomas Dryden 's greenhouses are
looking well. The cyclamens are good,
as are his Boston ferns. Carnations are
not producing much at present.
At the greenhouses of E. W. Newton,
the grower, Clarence Rundle, has every-
thing looking well. His carnations are
in fine shape. Funeral work is plenti-
ful, but flowers are hard to obtain. This
firm is cutting some Paper Whites.
Hallgren Bros., of Wilson Station,
have some excellent carnations and their
small geraniums are looking fine. Easter
lilies are doing well. They are cutting
Paper Whites in quantity.
The Cedar Hill Greenhouses delivered
their cherry plants, ferns and begonias
with the help of a recently purchased
1-ton Ford truck, in addition to the
other cars.

Coombs the Florist recently opened

The Market.
During the greatest Christmas busi-

held firm. Every retailer and whole-
saler was cleaned out of everything sal-
able. Plants of every description, made-
up baskets and poinscttias were sold out.
Weather conditions were ideal.
There was a good supply of splendid
stock; not enough of some lines to go
around, but by slight changes all orders
were fairly well taken care of. One
good feature about the market was
that no stock had been held for the oc-
casion, but everything was fresh and
in good condition. Roses were in good
supply in all grades, ranging in price

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

In the stores there was a fine show
of stock, made-up plant baskets pre-
dominating, and the florists certainly
used more care in arranging these than
ever before. Heather also played a
prominent part and some of this was
fine stock. Flowering begonias, as well
as the foliage stock, were to be seen in
every store. Poinsettias in pots and
pans were in abundance, and the stock
was fine. Ardisias and peppers were in

We fill your orders the way we want our orders filled
combinations. Miss Groves reported
tliat business was as good as it had ever
been, that she had cut stock suflBcicnt
to take care of all orders, and that she
was well pleased with the Christmas
business. At John Cook's was a fine
line of plants. The only thing missing
was azaleas, but they were made up for
by an excellent line of plant baskets.
Large plants of heatlier were to be seen
in this store that were specimens of the
finest kind. The poinsettia pans were
also fine, and the plants were about sold
out by the morning of December 24.
One thing that was most attractive was
the care used in finishing plant baskets.
On the handles of each one, where the
ribbon was tied, were a few pine cones
or a nice bunch of mistletoe.
Samuel Feast & Sons had their usual
fine line of blooming and foliage plants.
They, too, had splendid plant baskets
and special care was used in their ar-
rangement. Miss Hill stated that their
cut flower orders were running far ahead

of previous seasons, and tliat by the
morning of December 24 they were
about cleaned up on plants.
At Mary Johnston's tlie plants were
cleaned up early, and never had tliis
firm shown a finer line. The made-up
baskets were cleaned up fast. Cut
flower orders surpassed all expectations.
This firm's church decorations took
every decorating plant in stock. Mrs.
Johnston said that it would be impossi-
ble for her, with the present staff and
limited room, to take care of more busi-
ness, and yet she had the use of the
plant house opposite the store.
At Robert L. Graham's two stores
plants were all gone when the writer
arrived and the entire staff was busy
getting out the cut flower orders and
corsage bouquets.
"A wonderful Christmas," was tlie
verdict of everyone. Tate.

for roses that were no better. Carna-

price being for red. Some of the whole-
salers sold all carnations for $15, regard-
less of color. Even the splits went for
$12 and were eagerly bought at this
price. The carnation is a good seller in
this market and the crop was far short
of the demand. Narcissi brought $8;

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

the growers. Tlic Imroaii plans to liave
a man from B.-itoJi Rouge make semi-
monthly inspection trips to New Or-
leans. This, the florists declare, is im-
practicable, as shijiments of plants to
many points are barred unless they are
first insjiected liere. A committee of
tliree, Harry Paj)Worth, ('. W. Eichling
and Paul Al)ele, sent the request to the
governor and it is believed that sonie-
tliing will l)e done to restore the former
nietliod of inspection.

added to an uncropped soil it was found
that the proportion of soluble plant food
elements was greatly increased, and
was maintained at a high level for sev-
eral months. However, soils which
were producing crops showed a marked
diminution of water-soluble material
even in the early stages of the growth
of the crop. Before the plants had
completed their growth, the water-solu-
ble ingredients of the soil were reduced
to a level which was maintained during
further growth. It was concluded,
therefore, that an adequate supply of
immediately available plant food is es-
sential to successful crop production.

Pacific Coast Department
Cedar Falls, Wash. — John Young is
growing flowers for the local market
here. He contemplates starting in busi-
ness near Seattle as soon as a suitable
location can be found.
Vancouver, B. C. — The Killarney
Greenhouses have been recently pur-
chased by G. F. Clark, who has removed
them and reerected them at 3812 Flem-
ing street, where he intends to grow
bedding plants, tomatoes and a general
line of pot plants.
PORTLAND, ORE.
J. A. Currcy, local head of the Trus-
con Steel Co., and a well-known ama-
teur rose culturist, upon his return to
this city from Washington, D. C, where
he attended the annual meeting of the
executive committee of the American
Rose Society, reports an offer of $15,000
from an unnamed easterner, to be spent,
if accepted, for the propagation of the
world's most famous roses in conjunc-
tion with the international rose test
garden already located here. He states
that the Department of Agriculture has
arranged to import specimen roses from
all parts of the world for Portland prop-
agation.
LOS ANGELES, CAL.
The Market.
On the eve of the holidays the mar
ket was supplied with all kinds of stock
better than it had been for several
years. A wind and rain storm early in
the week was disastrous to poinsettias
in exposed sections, but as many of
these flowers are grown in well pro-
tected places, the loss was only partial.
Rose growers hit the holiday just right
and the supply of good stock was ample.
Other staple crops arrived in good shape
and retailers were looking forward to a
profitable holiday business. Heather
helped out considerably, although the
earlier cuttings, as usual, were not first-
class as to color. Some fine heather
plants were ready, both Erica melan-
thera and E. regerminans, the latter be-
ing in much better condition than usual.
Various Notes.
The E. C. Amling Co. moved last week
into its new and larger premises at 447
Wall street, in time for the Christmas
business. The new store is on the
ground floor and has a floor space 50x
200, giving ample room for all pur-
poses. This firm has decided to close
Sundays. Heavy shipments left last
week on all trains, heather, roses and
poinsettias being the leaders.
An immense business was done at the
establishment of Walter Armacost &
Co. When asked which was better
stock, cut flowers or plants, Mr. Wil-
liamson said that neither could possibly
be better and that a banner trade would
be recorded for the season. Just in time
for Christmas baskets and similar work,
a fine shipment of small cyclamens ar-
rived from the nursery, neat, well flow-
ered little plants, just as good in their
way as the large specimens that have
been so well grown by this firm for the
season. The rose crop was excellent as
well. Mr. Royston returned from his
eastern trip last week.
A fine showing of plants in great va-
riety was made at the store of Howard
& Smith, Ninth and Olive streets.
Some extra fine ericas were noted, es-
pecially E. regerminans.
At the store of the Redondo Floral Co.
poinsettias and cyclamens were leaders.
Business was brisk.
The Alexandria Florist made an ex-
cellent showing of well arranged plant
baskets. Some large specimens of Erica
melanthera were quite fine.
Darling's Shop was beautifully ar-
ranged and some choice stock of cut
flowers and plants in great variety was
shown. Azaleas, Lorraine begonias and
fine heathers were featured, but the
whole exhibition was uniformly good.
Tassano Bros. & Co., at Ni^^th and
Broadway, were quite busy both before
and during the holiday rush, and Angelo
Tassano expressed himself as well
pleased with the volume of business
done.
A novel and attractive lighting
scheme in the windows of 8. Purdie &
Co. drew considerable attention and the
stock shown was of a high order of
merit. S. Purdie was, unfortunately,
unwell during the holiday preparations,
although he stuck gamely at his post.
The Dostal- Welters Flower Shop was
a magnificent sight before the holidays,
some fine and artistic effects being cre-
ated. The color scheme, the individual
baskets and the quality of the stock
deserved the highest praise and many
visitors derived real pleasure from an
inspection.
A most attractive show was staged
by the Athletic Club Florist. J. Rolleri
and his capable staff were kept busy at-
tending to visitors. One of the attrac-
tions was a fine display of cyclamens.
At F. Lichtenberg 's establishment all
the baskets and other work were made
up in the store and some striking and
beautiful effects were noticed.
Always a busy place, Wright's
Flower Shop excelled itself this season

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

settias from the south did not compare
in color with the local greenhouse-
grown blooms. There was an unusually
abundant supply of English holly, with
large berries. The California Christmas
berries were also excellent, as a result
of the rain and cold. Pepper berries
were shown considerably and the prod-
ucts of the evergreen California woods
were in evidence, especially redwood
boughs with cones and buds. Potted
plants were abundant, particularly the
dwarf azaleas, begonias, primulas and
poinsettias. Begonias were plentiful,
although some of the florists reported a
scarcity. There were some Jerusalem
cherries in the market. Shipping busi-
ness was good.

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

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

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

POT FORGET-ME-NOTS AT ONCE.
Will you please inform me what would
be the proper time to pot field-grown
forget-me-nots in 5 and 6-inch pots for
the greenhouse? Also what would be
the right temperature to bring them in
before the outside plants are in bloom?
W. C. H.— Ore.
Pot the forget-me-nots at once and get
them established in the pots at the earli-
est possible moment. Forget-me-nots
will not stand hard forcing, but must
be brought on gradually. Raise the
temperature at night 5 degrees above
the average night temperature in which
they have been growing, and after a
week of this raise it to about 55 de-
grees. As soon as the flower buds can
be distinctly seen — that is, as soon as
they can be determined from growth
shoots — raise the temperature to 60 de-
grees. Avoid a close atmosphere, at
all times ventilating freely night and
day, and spray the plants lightly every
clear day. After they are well estab-
lished in the pots allow i)lenty of root
moisture. H. R. R.

The Market.
Christmas business was exceptionally
good, stock in general being fairly plen-
tiful. Potted plants were more abun-
dant than cut stock. Roses were in fair
supply and ranged in price from $12 to
$60 per hundred. Carnations were not
so numerous and the supply was entirely
used. Light colors brought $12, while
the dark shades and fancy varieties
sold at $15 per hundred. Paper Whites
and stevia were abundant. The former
did not sell so well and brought only
$6 and $8 per hundred. Stevia, how-
ever, was in good demand to mix with
other flowers for bouquets and corsage
work. Poinsettias in both potted plants
and cut blooms were in good demand.
These were not so plentiful as in other
years. Sweet peas are rather scarce,
a steady demand using up the stock.

lets at $3 per hundred and calendulas.
The supply of potted plants was un-
usually large. Jerusalem cherries were
abundant and were good sellers. They
varied greatly in price, according to
quality and size. Cyclamens were
numerous, although the quality was not
the best. The pink, lavender and red
sold well, while the white flowers were
not so popular.
Various Notes.
The Smith & Young Co. disposed of
over 10,000 roses in less than three days.
Thursday before Christmas was the
largest day the company had ever ex-
perienced.
Greene's Flower Shop had an excel-
lent Christmas trade. The business was
considerably larger this year than last.
Mr. Greene sold everything but a few
of the cheaper plants.
Bertermann Bros. Co. reported Christ-
mas business was good, that plants were
in heavier demand than cut flowers, but
that prices were not so high this year as
they were last.
A. Wiegand's Sons Co. had an at-
tractive Christmas window. To the back
and at each side were bay trees made
almost solid with artificial poinsettias.
With these and greens as a background,

NEWS OF THE NURSERY TRADE
ac

Under the name of the Keystone
Farms, a new nursery establishment has
been opened at Arlington, Tex., by Dr.
T. H. P. Duncan.
Nurserymen will note with interest
the gift of the American Forestry As-
sociation to France and Belgium of 12,-
000,000 tree seeds of Douglas fir.
Imports of nursery stock during the
first thirteen months of enforcement of
Quarantine 37 are given on another page
of this issue, under the heading, "One
Year of Quarantine."
The death of Joseph Meehan, of Phila-
delphia, well known to all the trade as
a writer on horticultural and landscape
subjects, occurred Deqember 23. His
death is reported in the obituary column
of this issue.
Development of the 30-acre tract of
land purchased by the state of Califor-
nia near Sacramento to be used as a
nursery is imder way. The first steps in-
clude the boring of a well, building of
fences, and leveling of grounds. Build-
ings will be constructed later. The tract
cost $15,000.
The Massachusetts Nurserymen's As-
sociation will hold its annual meeting
at Boston, February 8. The officers, as
elected last January, are: President,
Walton G. Wyman, North Abington;
vice-president, Julius Heurlin, South
Braintree; secretary and treasurer, Win-
throp Thurlow, West Newbury.
Claiming that fruit trees he had pur-
tohased from the Brown Bros. Co.,
Bochester, N. Y., were not true to name,
Edgar Morey, a farmer of the town of
Shelby, Orleans county, N. Y^ brought
an action against the nursery nrm to re-
cover the purchase price. A verdict for
$1,200 was rendered against the Brown
Bros. Co. at the trial before the Supreme
court, held at Albion, N. Y., the week of
December 13.
After working for eight years as em-
ployees of the Oregon Nursery Co., Oren-
co. Ore., Carl Peterson and Eldor
Henschke are starting a small nursery
at Orenco. They are purchasing a con-
siderable quantity of bulblets, seeds and
seedlings. "We have eight years' expe-
rience on the practical end of a nurs-
ery," writes Mr. Henschke, "and we
wish to learn the business end of it by
reading The Review."

BARBERRY FROM SEED.
What do you consider the best method
of growing Japanese barberry from
seed? A. G.— 0.
Late fall is a good time, probably the
best, to sow the seeds of Berberis Thun-
bergii. Beds about three feet wide are
suitable. The soil should be well pul-
verized before the seed is sown and,
before sowing, the fruit should be ma-
cerated to separate the flesh from the

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

E. C. M.— N. J.
Half-ripened wood of moss roses, in
common with other hardy roses, will
root in summer if placed in a gentle
hotbed. Fully ripened wood cut in
lengths and packed in damp sand over
winter in a cold cellar will callous be-
fore spring and a good proportion will
root when planted outdoors after the
frost has gone, buried three-fourths
their length. 0- ^'

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

eral carloads of southern smilax-in addi-

street, reports the biggest Christmas
business she ever had.
The Coh)nial Flower Shoppe, the latest
bidder for popular patronage, exceeded
all its anticipations. Located in the
heart of the financial section, it reaped
a good harvest.
Johnston Bros, furnished the immense
12-foot laurel wreath for the Provi-
dence Journal Co. again this year, for
the twentieth-odd season.
Ed Brooke, of T. J. Johnston & Co.,
said he was too tired to say anything
about business. "Just say they cleaned
me out, and that's enough."
Thomas Curley, the veteran grower
of Harkness street, cut several hundred
fine poinsettias, besides furnishing many
blooming plants in small pots and pans.
Various Notes.
Charles Forbes reports an unusually
large run of funeral work recently.
Fred Dietz, 24 French street, had a
large casket cover of roses and a num-
ber of pieces for a funeral last week.
John Johnston, of Johnston Bros.,
was a recent business visitor in Boston
and vicinity.
"William Doel, of Pascoag, B. I., was in
town last week looking for final sup-
plies for the holidays.
Willis S. Pino has been elected vice-
president of the New England Seed
Trade Association.
Viewing the thousands of handsome
roses cut at the greenhouses of the Bud-
long Rose Co., Auburn, it would be hard
to make anyone believe that these
bushes received a tremendous beating
by hail and that nearly all the glass in
the houses was broken thereby, the lat-
ter part of September. It has been a
wonderful recuperation. W. H. M.
Maxblehead, Mass. — James Mockford,
a grower at 21 Eockaway avenue, is just
recovering from the effect of the coal
shortage last season. Because of the
fact that he could get no coal, the stock
in his greenhouse, 18x100 feet, was
ruined February 3. It was 3 below zero
that day, with a gale blowing. The
pipes and pumps in the greenhouse
burst, eliminating all possible chance
to save any of the crop from freezing.
However, this year the prospects are
brighter and things are coming along
nicely.

The Florists^ Review
December 30, 1920
TORONTO, ONT.
The Maxket.
The opening of the Christmas season
in Toronto was rather disappointing to
some of the florists, but the two days
prior to Christmas were excellent, and
as a result all members of the trade were
elated. Additional help was put on the
last two days both in the stores and for
delivery purposes. The growers who
had sent in all the stock they had
planned for the holidays were ap-
proached and consented to search their
greenhouses for any stock which had es-
caped their notice. It has been reported
that last Thursday and Friday were
record-breakers in the amount of busi-
ness done on the last two days before
Christmas in the history of Toronto.
In spite of the prolonged dull weather
in December, there was an exceptionally
fine stock on the market. Azaleas and
cyclamens were in abundance and sold
rapidly. Both the buyers of azaleas be-
fore the war and the new buyers of to-
day purchased heavily, and as a result
the large stocks were disposed of. In
fact, the growers were not able to meet
the demand.
Various Notes.
Telegraph business during the Christ-
mas season was excellent, according to
the florists here. Those who feature
wire service here had good incoming
business and many report a large num-
ber of orders sent to florists in other
cities.
The Gardeners' and Florists' Associa-
tion held its regular meeting December
20, with a large attendance. It was de-
cided to have a question box; so at
future meetings those wishing informa-
tion can obtain it by dropping their
questions in the box. The next meeting
will be open and an address will be
given by Alexander Simpson on botan-
ical garden schemes. Arrangements will
be made for the annual social, which is
to be held in February. The exhibition
of begonias, poinsettias and cypripedi-
ums was exceptionally good.
J. A. Neal recently purchased a new
delivery truck, with which he will at-
tempt to keep up with his increased
business. J. J. H.

CHRYSANTHEMUMS
The highest quality in Chrysanthemums is accorded
our products by the majority of Commercial growers.
A few so-called Exhibition varieties under the best
state of cultivation have in a degree Commercial
qualities, but such qualities are greatly depleted
under conditions slightly adverse. In other words,
there is little or no middle ground—they are either
good or bad.
In considering Commercial qualities, the best returns
for the labor bestowed designate the varieties most
useful to the grower.

cent introductions, and the best of the older kinds,
will be furnished upon request.

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

houses. Will you tell us the best

PLIBRICO Keeps the HeatlWhere it Belongs
PLIBRICO keeps the heat in the furnace, because it forms
a jointless one-ciece lining in your front door arches,
entire fronts, side walls, arches, bridge walls, etc. This
lining is gas and air-tight, saves fuel while at the same
time greatly reduces your furnace upkeep, will last longer,
give better satisfaction and can be more easily repaired
than a lining constructed of fire brick and fire clay.
PLIBRICO is also unexcelled for baffle construction and
repairs.

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

running up to the ridge, as a rule we
do not favor using a single large flow
pipe under the ridge unless the level
of the returns is below the top of the
boiler. Our preference would be to run
two 3-inch flow pipes in houses 1 and 2,
either on the wall plates or on purlin
posts. There is less objection to the
3-inch flow pipe in house No. 3, but two
2V^-inch flows might be substituted.

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

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

Gorly's east side branch, says it was a
great Christmas, much better than last
year.
The wholesale houses of H. G. Ber-
ning, W. C. Smith Wholesale Floral Co.,
Windier Wholesale Floral Co., C. A.
Kuehn and Geo. H. Angermueller ex-
perienced a heavy demand, both local
and shipping.
The Koenig Floral Co. will furnish the
decorations incidental to the inaugura-
tion of Governor-elect Hyde, at Jeffer-
son City, Mo. Otto Koenig, head of the
firm, a prominent Eepublican, received
the order.
W. C. Smith, treasurer of the Flo-
rists' Club, will entertain the officers of
the club at his home on Thurman ave-
nue January 6, when an interesting pro-
gram will be arranged for the meeting
of the Florists' Club to be held Janu-
ary 13.
Thomas C. Carr, successor to the firm
of Carr & Eichardson, Union Market, ex-
perienced the best Christmas business in
the thirty years he has been in the trade.
The demand for greens, plants and cut
stock was heavy.
The St. Louis County Growers' Asso-
ciation will hold its next yearly meeting
January 5 at the W. A. Kowe establish-
ment, Kirkwood, Mo. Interesting dis-
cussions will take place, regarding
Christmas business. President Martin
Ude expects a full attendance.
The St. Louis Association of Garden-
ers is going to have a big New Year's
meeting, which will be held at the mu-
nicipal greenhouses, at Forest park.
President Jensen says the feature of the
meeting will be the installation of the
newly elected officers. Several interest-
ing discussions are also on the program.
The florist bowlers will bowl regularly
each Wednesday, and commenced on
this schedule December 29. Members of
the trade are welcome to attend any
Wednesday night.
The annual meeting of the St. Louis
district branch of the National Flower
Growers' Association will be held at
St. Louis January 25. The local com-
mittee, consisting of L. Jules Bourdet,
W. A. Rowe and C. E. DeWever, who have
all arrangements in hand, met December
29 to complete the program and enter-
tainment features. Growers who have re-
ceived application blanks for member-
ship should fill them out and return to

EVERTITE
GLAZING CEMENT
Use Evertite for all your Glazing — for your new
work, for tightening leaky roofs and for repairing
broken glass.
Evertite Glazing Cement is made from pure
rock asbestos, non-drying adhesive oils and Gil-
sonite — it will not check, crack, run or harden
under the extremes of temperature — but will al-
ways remain in a plastic, rubber-like condition.
Evertite Glazing Cement, because of its com-
position, will contract and expand under the stress
of vibration in wind storms — but will not crack.
Evertite flows from our "Oh Boy" Gun (which
we give you gratis) in a thick, pencil-like stream
and stays where you put it, never gathering in
puddles, - ^.i-it
Go oVeji^HwH glass once with Evertite Glazing
Cement Jl^^^en forget your glass for a long time
— Saving not only the money, but also the labor.
In fact, if putty were furnished you gratis — Ever-
tite would still save you money — because of les-
sened labor cost.
Evertite Glazing Cement is inexpensive — it is sold
tor less than competing articles on the market.
It can be had in barrels, half barrels and kegs.

The Florists^ Review
December 30, 1920
CLEVELAND, O.
The Market.
Christmas week found stock rather
scarce in most lines, especially carna-
tions and roses. Everything cleaned up
nicely with the exception of white nar-
cissi and stevia. If there had not been
an oversupply on the market, these two
items would have cleaned up, too, but
every grower and wholesaler was over-
stocked for several weeks before the
Christmas rush. Cut poinsettias cleaned
up with the exception of a few of the
short ones. More carnations could have
been sold had they been available.
Stock this year was better than for some
years past, which was gratifying to all
concerned.
Various Notes.
The statement made recently that
Karl Witthuhn had removed his stock to
a new location has been investigated
and appears to be without foundation.
Mr. Witthuhn expressed the intention
of moving, but as yet is in his former
location. W. A. R.
NEWABK, N. J.
The Market.
Considering the high prices it was
necessary to charge for holiday goods,
the Christmas trade was entirely satis-
factory. Many customers who usually
purchase cut flowers bought flowering
plants or ferns, because they felt they
were getting more value for their
money. While there are a few mums in
the market, they have practically
passed for the season.
Various Notes.
The Hilton Dahlia Farm is the trade
name which has been filed for the flo-
rists' business conducted at 1958 Spring-
field avenue, Hilton, by Catherine E.
Gordon.
The Washington Florists, Broad street
and Central avenue, reported an excel-
lent Christmas trade. E. B. M.
Green Bay, Wis. — Carl Meier has pur-
chased the Stiles greenhouses at Oconto,
Wis., the largest in that part of the
state. They were used for growing win-
ter vegetables, but the increased cost of
coal rendered that unprofitable. They
will be planted to roses and carnations.

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

QUEEN ESTHER GLADIOLI.
Never ollered for sale before, been growing
this variety 18 years for cut flowers. Since
I originated this variety I always bad ready
sale at good prices the last of June and July
due to its earliness. Earlier than Halley and a
more pleasing color. See description in part from
Cornell University.
BLOOM: — Medium large, curved, stout tube,
stamens white, anthers violet. It possesses a
deep Tyran rose blotch on two lower petals.
Very compact and well shaped.
SPIKES: — 3-ft., erect and a fair bloomer. 10
blooms on main spikes, 7 to 10 on secondaries; 6
blooms are usually open at one time, there being
3 spikes per cormel frequently.
GROWTH: — Vigorous, well furnished with
broad leaves.
PROLIFICACY: — Cormels large and prolific,
an excellent landscape variety because of pro-
fusion of spikes, good foliage and pleasing
color.
Anyone Interested in this variety write me and
I will quote you very reasonable on the whole
lot or part. I have many thousands of them,
all sizes.

llr. W. L. Fergnson, Smiths Falls, Ontario, tin-

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

A.- col mil IIS. llii-.\ an' pipe, lit; i^, any ot li'T ooluiiiii
ISut liicro llic likeness stop.-..
It slops at tiie boitoni, before it -tart.s.
Look at tlie lenler illustration, and you see whj .
At tlie lop the t'olunin cap i.i bolted directly to
the plate ihat splices the rafter and carries the
trii" tie.
The cap itS'lf ii bolted throu«h and through to
the cohinin.
So much for that hold up fraiuiiih' point.
Now for how the rafter and purlin.^ are fa.itened
tot-ether. Take a look at the out below. See
that knee brace, and the ivay it first bolt.^ with
J bolls to the purlin. Then liolts to the rafter.
Then screws to the r.ifter cat) itself. Compare
its .slrenf-'ih with the usual piece of antjle iron
utotf in short lenpths.
After which, let's «o up the roof to the ridae.
as shown at the risht.
That part of the rafter and tru.>- from the col-
umn cap 3plici' plate to the ridge, is framed at
the factory, all ready for lifting up into place.
Plate No. 1 on both sides of the rafter, with its
angle No. J, is liroui;hl face to face, and bolted
loaelher.
No. 3 i.s the anchor for the tru.ss rod which
stiffens the ridge.
No I i< the truss rod
r
No. 7 is the no leak ridge, so milled that the sash
have sort of a pry tijiht movement, making it
weather proof.
Now figure on the fact I hat the raft<'r from the
column runs to the eave, where it bends and
continues straight to the cast iion post base,
similar in design to the column base.
The r.ifler itself is no! below urade to rust.
It lias no splice plates at the eave to cumber it
up and cast shade. It's one solid piece from col-
umn cap to base.
F'or the rest of them -both the hold-up and
hold-down points--see our Supply Book
If you haven't one. send for it.
And you know we no aii.\"here for busineos, or
