THE NEW CENSUS. 



We have received from Wa.shing- 

 ton a copy of the blank schedule that 

 is being mailed to florists for the pur- 

 pose of securing full and complete 

 data regarding commercial floricul- 

 ture for the census now being taken. 



The census of 1891 was the first one 

 in which commercial floriculture was 

 considered and the figures were nat- 

 urally very incomplete. It is to be 

 hoped that all in the trade will co- 

 operate heartily with the census offi- 

 cials in their efforts to do the trade 

 full justice in the present census. 



If you have not received a copy of 

 the schedule you may obtain one by 

 addressing L. G. Powers, Chief Statis- 

 tician in Charge of Agriculture, Cen- 

 sus Ofllce, Washington, D. C. 



KNOXVILLE, TENN.— John Kar- 

 sten has erected a fine office and work- 

 room in addition to two houses for 

 palms and ferns. He is much encour- 

 aged by the steady increase in busi- 

 ness and intends to further enlarge his 

 place next summer. He noted an in- 

 creased demand for pot plants during 

 the holidays. 



WARSAW, N. Y. — Business is good. 

 Some of the florists report the best 

 trade in years. To meet the demand 

 of his rapidly growing trade H. S. Ba- 

 ker is preparing to build another 

 house, 15x50. Owing to ill-health. D. 

 W. McKinley has been compelled to 

 give up his business and has disposed 

 of his house and stock to Geo. Goodale, 

 of Perry.
