M. S. Worden is laaving splendid suc- 

 cess with carnations and violets this 

 winter. He has calls for more flowers 

 than he can cut. His houses and 

 plants are always in the finest shape. 



A. J. Sehmutz, the Arnold Place 

 florist, shows himself to be a first- 

 class carpenter as well as florist. He 

 has recently finished an ice box which 

 is a credit to him. Since he has taken 

 the place last July he has been busy. 

 He reports business good and he has 

 a fine lot of spring stuff coming on. 



A. H. Darling, formerly gardener for 

 Hon. A. C. Houghton, is negotiating 

 for an acre of land two miles out on 

 the state road, upon which he intends 

 to erect vegetable liouses, also a dwel- 

 ling house for hin.self. D. 



HOLYOKE, MASS. 



On January 23 the Springfield and 

 Northampton Horticultural Societies 

 held their second union meeting in 

 Northampton. 



Prof. Ganong, of Smith College, gave 

 a very interesting lecture on "Botany 

 as Related to Horticulture." 



E. J. Canning, of Smith Botanical 

 Gardens, exhibfted specimens of cycla- 

 men, primula and Gloire de Lorraine 

 begonia. Donald McGregor, of E. H. 

 R. Lyman estate, exhibited cyclamens 

 and cypripediums. 



This is the first winter that the 

 above societies have held union meet- 

 ings and a great deal of good is ex- 

 pected from them. G. H. S. 



DETROIT, MICH.— D. M. P>rry. the 

 well known seedsman, is a candidate 

 for the office of governor of Michigan 

 and is running against Governor Pin- 

 gree, who is seeking a re-election. Mr. 

 Ferry started in the seed business in 

 this city in 1S56 and has built up one 

 of the largest houses in the country.

 large commercial enterprises.

The Right Cypress for 

 Greenhouse Material. 



Have you heard of Cypress Greenhouse Material that has not been satisfac- 

 ;cty ;■ If you have it does not follow that Cypress is not the best lumber to use. 

 There is White Cypress, Yellow Cypress and Red Cypress; there is Cypress that 

 grows on the high lands and Cypress that grows in the swamps. 



All of these different kinds are not suitable for greenhouse purposes. Do you 

 know which kind is best and do you know that kind when you see it? If not you 

 would better buy from those that do know and will deliver exactly what they sell. 

 We introduced Cypress for greenhouse construction and pushed it to the front. 

 We know all about it. For fifteen years we have made a specialty of furnishing it, 

 and during this time we have built up a reputation that we can not afford to jeop- 

 ardize. We send out the best only.
