The National Horticulturist, a fruit- 

 growers' periodical, the official organ 

 of the '•National Horticultural Con- 

 gress," has been reorganized and will 

 be published hereafter by O. O. Buck, 

 of Council Bluits, la. 



A bill— Assembly Bill No. 349— has 

 been introduced in the New Jersey leg- 

 islature by Mr. Burlve providing for 

 the erection of a range of greenhouses 

 at the New Brunswick station for hor- 

 ticultural experiment purposes and the 

 jirospects looli: favorable. 



5[ Lily bulbs have two arch en- 

 emies — green-fly and too much 

 water. When lilies are bad, one 

 or both prevails as a general 

 thing. Of course, sometimes the 

 bulbs are at fault but 75 % of 

 the time they are not. Any 

 grower who permits his lilies to 

 be infected with green-fly don't 

 deserve good lilies. He has no 

 more business to allow green- 

 fly on his lilies than he has to 

 allow fleas on his body. Again a 

 grower will permit a greenhorn 

 to water the bulbs — whereas 

 it takes a man who knows 

 how and when. Any grower 

 who buys Horseshoe Brand 

 Giganteum lily bulbs and gives 

 them the attention they de- 

 serve, cannot help but have 

 first class lilies at any time of 

 the year, with a minimum of 

 loss. There are positively no 

 better bulbs grown anywhere 

 in the world and no one takes as 

 much pains toward quality as 

 the producers of the Horseshoe 

 Brand Products. 

 ^ Of course, they cost more 

 than others because they cost 

 more to produce. But they 

 don't cost more than they are 

 worth. Try them.
