There is enough stock iii all lines to go 

 around. Mums predominate, but there are many 

 fine flowers, especially yellow varieties, with 

 very weak stems, which lowers their value. Car- 

 nations and roses are about equal to demand. 

 Violets are coming in freely and only the 

 choicest are cleaned up at list prices.

CONSISTENCY. 



Why all these efforts to expose the 

 operations of the palm swindler, naming 

 his victims and thus putting them in a 

 position to be chaffed at? 



\Vhy publish the doings of the slick 

 individual who psisses worthless checks 

 and flaunt the names of his dupes? 



Why proclaim the existence of a 

 fraudulent subscription agent? 



Why this continual besmirching the 

 practice of the U. S. government in its 

 effort to distribute free seeds; calling it 

 a humbug and a farce? 



Why borrow articles from other pa- 



pers, one in point being entitled "Unole 

 Sam as a Florist"? 



Supposedly to check the evils (real or 

 imaginary) and all will agree that it is 

 eminently the proper course. But per- 

 haps it may be done to give an oppor- 

 tunity for all to form an opinion of the 

 business acumen of those who confess 

 to being duped, or that it offers a chance 

 for certain ones to be continually crying 

 over spilled milk. 



It has been said that every evil has a 

 remedy: evidently these are exceptions 

 and tlie guilty remain in eoneealmeat, 

 pointing to each other and saying "Thou 

 art the man." Certainly these evils con- 

 tinue to exist in spite of all efforts, di- 

 rected or misdirected. 



Perhaps the concerted efforts of a 

 Xutjneg State Florists' Club, whose pow- 

 ers are referred to in a recent editorial 

 as being of such magnitude that the 

 withdrawal of their trade from certain 

 parties would result in their non-exist- 

 ence, would prove of service. 



Consistency, thou art a jewel: God 

 grant that the straight shoot aiming to 

 grow into a vigorous plant may attain 

 its object, even though the atmosphere 

 around it may be so seeped in the hot 

 breath of the Tammany tiger that trutli 

 would almost seem to have ceased to 

 be a virtue. 



■'Bonis noeet, si quis malis pepereerit." 



(If one spares the bad he injures the 

 good.) Misdirected Effort. (?) 



Bellemele, III. — This is quite a city 

 for florists. We have six places in op- 

 eration. We are near St. Louis and are 

 connected by electric cars that rim every 

 fifteen minutes. Stock is looking well 

 everywhere. At A. G. Fehr's, Lawson, 

 Dorothy and Flora Hill carnations are 

 throwing some extra fine blooms. 

 Roses look well and fine Golden Gates 

 are being cut.
