wilting of the flowers due to the In- 

 tense heat. When informed of condi- 

 tions the florists discontinued the send- 

 ing of the wreaths, sprays, etc.. and 

 those which they had already made up 

 were stored in their ice boxes and the 

 others held over until late Sunday 

 night or early Monday morning. It is 

 also said that no greater display of 

 flowers was ever made here, regard- 

 less of the occasion, and special pro- 

 visions had to be made on the train 

 which bore the body and the mourners 

 to Rome, Ga.. where interment took 

 place. 



A CORRECTION. 



In a note in our issue of .luly 25, we. 

 listed C. C. Wagoner & Bro. as located 

 at Louisville, Ky. This was incorrect 

 as the proper address of this firm is 21'i 

 Second avenue. North, Nashville, Tenn.

FOUND AT LAST. 

 In many of our northern states, 

 reaching from Massachuse'ts to 

 Nebraska, it is often hard to find 

 flowers suitable for Decoration Day. 

 Wherever they can be had. peonies are 

 in great demand; unfortunately they 

 are very scarce that day. For ten 

 years in succession we wouU have 

 only hundreds the last of May, and 

 thousands only a day or two after. 

 LaEsperence (Edulis Superba really) 

 would often he on hand. This Is a 

 beautiful fragrant pink; we could not 

 always re'y on this however. After 

 testing hundreds of varieties for a 

 .food many years, we have found that 

 Umbellata Rosea completely fills the 

 bill and all along this range of north- 

 ern states can be depended on. It is 

 beautiful rose, sweet and winsome. It 

 is somewhat rare and as soon as its 

 characteristics and earliness are found 

 out. there must be a large call for it. 

 It Is a free bloomer and a .sood muUi- 

 plier, so that if the price is a little 

 high it will soon make good.
