WAYSIDE JOTTINGS. 



The craft at Titusville, Pa., complain 

 of a bard winter, ivhich, with the re- 

 cent flood, has dampened their spirits 

 somewhat. AV. Bay says it was pump, 

 pump or be drowned. Thos. ilurdock, 

 says it was fire up or be frozen up, L. 

 J. Eowe is the latest addition to the 

 ranks and says there is more money in 

 tapping oil wells. 



W. Si. Lott, of Warren, Pa., has re- 

 turned to his former love and can be 

 found in a snug store downtowu. Wii 

 was compelled to give up the green- 

 houses, owing to expiration of lease, and 

 is looking for a desirable location for a 

 new plant. Dan Offerle has built a 

 handsome store with residence above. 

 The store is 26x.50 feet and is thorough- 

 ly up-to-date in every respect. The old 

 office is still standing, a striking illustra- 

 tion of the rapid strides made in our 

 profession during the past decade. 



Mrs. F. H. Johnson, of Olean, N. Y., 

 is the proud possessor of the only or- 

 chids in town just now. Cattleya lab- 

 iata and Ccelogyne cristata are in bloom 

 and attract much attention. Llewellyn 

 had the misfortune recently to lose one 

 house of roses in some unexplained way. 

 D. R. Herron has had excellent carna- 

 tions, but fewer in number than usual. 



W. C. EockweU, of Bradford, Pa., will 

 be missed from the convention at De- 

 troit. He is rusticating in Florida hunt- 

 ing 'gators. 



Walker & McLean, of Youngstown, O., 

 are giving up foliage plants for flower- 

 ing stock. Space is too valuable unless 

 a specialty is made, when doubtless well- 

 grown stock such as is produced here will 

 always find a steady sale. Carnations 

 have not done so well as usual. En- 

 chantress has proven as profitable as any, 

 not excepting Lawson, which is as profit- 

 able as ever. Queen Louise is the best 

 all-around white. WhUe it splits badly 

 the flower can be used in design work 

 and its free flowering qualities overcome 

 this defect. Boston Market is consid- 

 ered a profitable white and will be grown 

 more extensively another season.

The F. S. Department of Agriculture 

 has issued a monograph entitled "Beau- 

 tifying the Home Grounds," by L. C. 

 Corbett. horticulturist in the Bureau of 

 Plant Industry. It is a pamphlet of 

 twenty-four pages, which would make.. 

 ■business for any florist if placed in the 

 hands of his customers. Copies may be 

 obtained bv writing the department for
