STORM DAMAGE IN NEW JERSEY 



A series of severe electrical storms 

 accompanied by heavy hail did great 

 injury in Morris, Union and Somer- 

 set counties, New Jersey, on July 13. 

 and did considerable damage as it 

 swept over the country around Siun- 

 mit, Madison, Chatham, Murray Hill, 

 etc., especially the hail, as quite a num- 

 ber of lights were broken on all the 

 greenhouse places in these towns. 

 More than one hundred lights of glass 

 were broken by hail in the green- 

 house of Fred Nason, Murray Hill, 

 New Providence. The greenhouses of 

 Marcus L. Force of Morristown 

 •were riddled by hail and flowers and 

 vegetables destroyed ruthlessly. At 

 Westfield, Herder Bros, were heavy 

 losers. Their greenhouses were com- 

 pletely wrecked and contents ruined. 



At Springfield a dwelling in course 

 of erection by the Jacobsen Floral Co. 

 on Westfleld Ave., was badly damaged. 

 At Madison, truck gardens were either 

 cut to pieces or the vegetables torn up 

 by the roots and swept away. This 

 along with the greenhouses that were 

 wrecked and the wheat and oat crops 

 that were destroyed runs the damage 

 up to $100,000.

SCOTCH SOOT 



Where there Is a honse that Is Jast 

 full of buds almost ready to show color, 

 nothing will turn better color Into the 

 flowers than a little soot, that can be 

 scattered over the benches before water- 

 ing. The amount applied should not be 

 excessive, as the soot Is very strong 

 and may damage some of the foliage 

 somewhat. Apply Just enough to blacken 

 the surface of the soil In the benches, 

 and let It go at that. Better a little 

 oftener than too much all at once. 



We offer the genolne In original cwt. 

 Sacks, at: 



$4.00 per 112 lbs.; $17.80 per 660 lbs.
