A WARNING ABOUT SHEEP 

 ■ MANURE. 

 Owing to the high price of miittun 

 during the past spring the sheep in 

 the vicinity of the big niarliets have 

 been sold off to the extent that it is 

 at present very difficiilt to get sheep 

 manure that is good. Gardeners and 

 florists should avoid purchasing the 

 product of the stock yards of Chicago. 

 Omaha and St. Louis, for the reason 

 that at these places the sheep are fed 

 largely with wheat screenings and the 

 manure produced is apt to be filled 

 with objectionable weed seeds. If good 

 manure is to be had it must come 

 from points much further west where, 

 because of the great distance, raisers 

 are not so anxious to take advantage 

 of stock yards' markets. 



BUSINESS CHANGES. 



H. B. Lewis of i\)ntiac, .Mich., has 

 moved into more commodious quarter.s 

 at 81 N. Saginaw St. 



Thomas Heskey of Hopedale, Mass.. 

 has purchased the greenhouses of 

 Norcross & Stratton. Grafton. Mass.. 

 and will tal;e early possession. 



D. C. Lines of .Milford, Conn., is re- 

 fitting his greenhouses and intends to 

 return to the business in which he 

 had been engaged many years. 



F. W. Wilson of Detroit has leased 

 the store No. 34 N. Main St.. Glovers- 

 ville, N. Y., and will open about 

 August 11 an up-to-date florist's es- 

 tablishment.
