The Weekly Florists' Review, 



MAurH 17. 1904. 



A LEAN-TO. 



I have a leau-to facing south, built 

 against a building on the north. Tho 

 house is 15x40 feet, twelve feet high on 

 the north side and six feet on the south. 

 I want to grow Lawson carnations and 

 pink roses. What is the best way to di- 

 vide the house for that purpose? What 

 varieties of roses should I grow? Would 

 steam or hot water bo best for heating? 



G. E. F. 



To have the best success with Lawson 

 carnations the night temperature shovild 

 not exceed 52 degrees, while roses, such 

 as Bridesmaid, Golden Gate and Ivory, 

 which would be the most suitable varie- 

 ties for such a house, do best at a tem- 

 perature of 56 degrees. The house shouhl 

 be divided by a partition and an extra 

 coil of independent pipe placed in the 

 part devoted to roses. This style of 

 house is a veritable sun trap and wou'd 

 require extra ventilators to prevent earlv 

 deterioration of bloom, and in the sec- 

 tion devoted to carnations early shading 

 would have to be practiced. Steam being 

 much easier controlled than hot water, 

 and quicker in its action, would be the 

 best method of heating. Eibes. 



Barkesboro, N. J. — Frederick Pope, 

 who was a veteran of the trade, died 

 March 9 of dropsy, aged 65 years. 



Ashtabula, 0. — H. Tong has sold a 

 half interest in his business to DeForest 

 Weeks, who has for three years been 

 with Mr. Tong as manager. The firm 

 will now be Tong & Weeks. They do a 

 wholesale and retail trade, growing as- 

 paragus, smilax and carnations princi- 

 pally. Trade is good in this vicinity.
