HORN SHAVINGS. 



I saw priced in a Chicago florist's 

 catalogue not long ago an article new 

 to nic — horn shavings. The catalogue 

 .said the horn shavings Avere of much 

 liciictit where l)edding plants were grown 

 in large quantities. I sent for a sample 

 package and would like to ask you for 

 information how the grower of bedding 

 plants is to use them to best advantage. 



I. M. B. 



They are mixed with the potting soil 

 the same way bone meal is used. Their 

 action is quicker than that of the bone. 

 They are also much used in the soil in 

 vases and baskets where there must be 

 a large percentage of plant food in a 

 small amount of soil.

A CHRISTMAS JOKE. 



The Christmas l>ells were ringing early 

 Christmas morning, but they were 

 drowned by the sound of the telephone 

 bell. One of the storekeepers was using 

 the wires to proclaim to all the Beauty 

 growers for ten miles around the Quaker 

 City that the price of American Beauties 

 in New York was $6 per dozen for spe- 

 cials. But the same storekeeper was 

 known to be only too glad to pay $15 per 

 dozen before noon of the same day, and 

 was then kicking because he did not get 

 enough. M.

 moor Floral Co. has built nine green-
