PHILADELPHIA NOTES. 



There seems to be a good demand 

 for 21/4 in. Asparagus Sprengeri; and a 

 still more eager outlook for 4 in. 

 Some 4 iu. were offered the other day 

 and were quickly grabbed up by an 

 enterprising grower. On being asked 

 the reason, he said: "Don't you see? 

 I only paid six cents for them and I 

 can cut six cents off them in a week 

 or two, and still have my plant. It's 

 like finding money." By the same 

 token 21/2 in. seem to be a good propo- 

 sition at three. 



Favorable comment is heard on all ^ 

 sides for the strong stand HORTI- 

 CULTURE has taken on the artificial 1 

 flower nuisance and the good work 1 

 along that line it has done so consis- 

 tently during the past five years. 

 Commenting on this the other day. 

 S. S. Pennock suggested that the trade 

 generally, growers, wholesalers and 

 retailers, get together and try the 

 "Chicago plan" to abate this vulgar 

 custom which seems rather on the in- 

 crease of late. The details or authen- 

 ticity of the "Chicago plan," so called, 

 we do not know at this writing, but 

 briefly as we understand it the whole- 

 salers got together and hired a bevy 

 of colored ladies and had them walk 

 the fashionable promenades wearing 

 gaudy artificial flowers during the 

 hours when wealth and beauty 

 paraded. The scheme is said to have 

 worked successfully and after that no 

 person with any pretensions to belong 

 to the upper ten could be Induced to 

 appear with anything but the real 

 thing in flowers. We would be glad 

 to hear from your Chicago corres- 

 pondents how much there is in this 

 story.

everyone interested in chrysanthe- 

 mums or who has visited a chrysan- 

 themum show in any part of the 

 world within recent years. In fact 

 if the Wells Pocket productions were 

 eliminated from the exhibitions of 

 the present day there would be a big 

 gap. In this edition, a whole chapter 

 is devoted to the author's visit ta 

 America in the fall of 1909 and will 

 be found verv interesting to American 

 readers as will also the introduction, 

 in which Mr. Wells makes further 

 reference to his experiences in 

 America and to the excellent work for 

 the chrysanthemum which Mr. Totty. 

 of Madison, N. J., and others are do- 

 ing. Th'e book covers evei? cultural 

 detail necessary for a grower to 

 know and is indispensable to anyone 

 aiming to be up-to-date in commer- 

 cial or exhibition chrysanthemum 

 growing. 



Cheshire Conn.— The new forest 

 nursery started here is the "North- 

 Eastern," not the "North-Western," 

 as stated in our press dispatch of 

 last week. The company which was 

 organized last year has now nurseries 

 at Cheshire and East Haven, Conn.. 

 and Westport. N. Y. Their business 

 is the collection and sale of tree 

 seeds and production of stock for 

 forest planting. R. C. Hawley is man- 

 ager, secretary and treasurer.
