Flower Market Reports 



(Continued from patie 349) 



The weather has turned 

 ST. LOUIS much cooler and in 

 consequence flowers 



are improving. Outside of consider- 

 able funeral work there was little 

 doing. Roses are fairly good in sup- 

 ply but carnations are somewhat 

 scarce. Violets will soon start up. 

 Trade never seems to get into the 

 season until after the first good frost.

LIBERTY DAY. 



Saturday. October 12, is the four 

 hundred and twenty-sixth anniversary 

 of the discovery of America. Presi- 

 dent Wilson has proclaimed it Liberty 

 Day and requests the citizens of every 

 community in the United States — city, 

 town, and countryside — to celebrate 

 the day. 



The President, in his proclamation, 

 says: 



"Every day the great principles for 

 which we are fighting take fresh hold 

 upon our thought and purposes and 

 make it clearer what the end must be 

 and what we must do to achieve it. 



We now know more certainly than 

 we ever knew before why free men 

 brought the great Nation and Govern- 

 ment we love into existence, because 

 it grows clearer and clearer what su- 

 preme service it is to be America's 

 privilege to render to the world."

THE MEANING OF YOUR SUB- 

 SCRIPTION TO THE FOURTH 

 LIBERTY LOAN. 



What is the Liberty Loan? 



It's forts and it's ships and it's shin- 

 ing guns. 



It's squadrons that sweep the sea. 



It's all of the circling band of steel 



That shall keep all the home shores 

 free. 



It's grub and it's warmth for the sailor 

 lad 



Far out on the wintry foam. 



For the brave jack tar, as he fights 

 afar, 



It's the good old "Money from home " 



What is the Liberty Loan? 

 It's rifle and helm and it's bayonet. 

 It's shovel and shard and shell 

 For the soldier boy in the olive drab. 

 Out there on the edge of hell. 

 It's the soaring wings of the whirring 



planes 

 That battle on high alone. 

 For the lad who is daring "Over there" 

 It's the good old "Money from home." 



What is the Liberty Loan? 

 It's succor and life for a bleeding 



world. 

 It's the glimmer of Peace at dawn. 

 It's the strength of a mighty arm to 



strike. 

 It's the gleam of a great sword, 



drawn. 

 But, more than all, it's the pledge of 



love 

 To the lads whom we call "Our own." 

 To the boys on land, afloat, on high. 

 It's the good old "Money from home." 

 By R.\i.pn E. McMu.lin.

"MADE IN U. S. A" MARK 



At a meeting of the executive com- 

 mittee of the Merchants' Association 

 of New York, held on September 23. 

 1918, the following resolution was 

 adopted; 



Whereas we believe the best inter- 

 est of our country are served when 

 all goods manufactured here can be 

 readily indentified at all times from 

 goods manufactured elsewhere; and 



Whereas we believe that the iden- 

 tification of the country of origin of 

 any goods is facilitated by the use of 

 a single designation of origin; and 



Whereas we believe that the desig- 

 nation "Made in U. S. A.," in plain 

 type form, is the best means of iden- 

 tification of goods manufactured in the 

 United States of America: Therefore 

 he it 



Resolved. That the Merchants' As- 

 sociation of New York recommends 

 that the designation "Made in U. S. A.," 

 in plain type form, be used by all of 

 its members on all goods manufac- 

 tured by them in the United States 

 of America, and that the use of all 

 other markings to identify the coun- 

 try of origin of such goods be discon- 

 tinued. 



VEGETABLE FORCING 



By Prof. K. L. Watts 



Which has JuBt come from the press. 

 This book was produced In response to 

 numberless Inquiries for a practical up- 

 to-date volume on the forcing of vege- 

 tables. In our judgment it is the most 

 complete, final and authoratative work on 

 forcing ever Issued. The author of this 

 intensely practical book has had a large 

 experience In growing crops under glass. 

 He gives clearly and concisely, complete 

 instructions covering Greenhouse Con- 

 struction, Soil, Preparation, Insects, 

 Diseases, Marketing, Cropping System, 

 and the growing of all of the most im- 

 portant 'Vegetable Forcing Crops. The 

 book will be found equally valuable to 

 amateurs and experienced gardeners.
