A NEW HOSE. 



Greenhouse cwners will be interested 

 in a hose of special construction lately 

 placed on the market. The question of 

 obtaining a satisfactory article that 

 ivould stand the wear and tear of green- 

 house work has long been discussed by 

 users and a hose that would not kink, 

 burst or wear through the cover has not 

 vet been obtained at a reasonable price. 

 The Mineralized Eubber Co., New York, 

 has a hose which seems to fill the re- 

 quirements of greenhouse work, being 

 constructed of a number of plies of fine 

 duck, making kinking impossible, and 

 an extra heavy cover effectually pro- 

 tects it from the wear caused by being 

 drawn around sharp corners of benches, 

 etc. Although it will stand any hydrant 

 pressure, it is as light in weight as al- 

 most any hose on the market. Every 

 man who has had to drag a heavy section 

 of hose around will appreciate this last 

 advantage. The saving in weight is ac- 

 complished by an ingenious idea. It is 

 a well known fact that the supply of 

 water passing through a hose is governed 

 by the smallest internal diameter of any 

 part of that hose and as the couplings 

 of a %-ineh hose are V^ inch at the 

 shank the stream is practically reduced 

 to that size. Now the hose that we refer 

 to is made % inch throughout except at 

 the ends, which are enlarged to admit a 

 regular %-inch coupling, so the size of 

 the stream is not reduced and practically 

 the same amount of water passes as 

 through the ordinary %-inch hose.

Denver, Colo. — J. A. Valentine, of the 

 Park Floral Co., states that he has made 

 an arrangement with N. A. Benson to 

 grow 1,000 Prosperity carnations for 

 him next season, taking all the cut at 

 the uniform price of 8 cents throughout 

 the year. 



Greenfield, Mass. — E. A. Eichards 

 says business this season has been about 

 the same as last year, but that a rather 

 larger Easter trade is expected. Pros- 

 pects are bright for spring business, as 

 many people have lost their plants dur- 

 ing the severe winter.
