Shipping Cut Flowers. — We have 

 had the privilege of examining the novel 

 shipping frame for cut flowers invented 

 by Mr. J. M. Clark. Des Moines, la. 

 These frames hold ten blooms each, so 

 adjusted that each flower is held firml3- 

 but .gently in place and the frames nest 

 together, being held firmly in position 

 in the case by slij.iping the edges into 

 thin slits in the sides. The flowers can 

 go from the grower to the consumer with- 

 out any rehandlin.g wliatever. The bene- 

 fit to the stock by doing away with all 

 rehandling would certainly be consider- 

 able. Mr. Clark is preparing to manu- 

 facture these frames in quantity and says 

 they can be sold at so moderate a price 

 that returning the frames will not be 

 necessarv.

The ' 'Rose leaf " tobacco e.-stract has 

 now become a real ■ necessitv to every 

 florist. Vaporizing is far superior to 

 "smoking" in every way and is even 

 more effective.
