' I ""HE flavor, color and shipping quality 

 -'- of strawberries are improved by the 

 intelligent use of Potash. 



Many big shippers of good berries find 



profit in using 200 lbs. Sulfate of Potash per 



acre. They find that Potash Pays. 



You should insist on your berry fertilizer con- 

 taining at least 10% available Potash. If you have 

 trouble in securing fertilizer of this grade we will 

 sell you direct any amount of Potash Salts from a/ 

 200-lb. bag up.

PHILADELPHIA NOTES. 



A FERTILIZER QUERY. 



Will you please tell me through 

 HdRTicuLTCRE the best fertilizer for 

 Rubber Trees in large boxes, also for 

 the Latania Borbonica of large size in 

 boxes. Yours respectfully, 



A Subscriber. 



Jno. Kulp has sold out his place at 

 Wayne Junction. Phila.. to W. C. 

 Weidenbacher and is going into the 

 growing ot carnations and roses at 

 Fort Washington, Pa. 



Professor W. B. Nissley of State Col- 

 lege, Pa., will be the attraction at the 

 next meeting of the Florists' Club, 

 Tuesday evening, April 7. His sub- 

 peel will be "Fertilizers — Manufac- 

 tured and Natural." The growers will 

 be out in force as they are all eager 

 to hear the latest in scientific re- 

 search in this line, and State College 

 has made quite a reputation for pro- 

 gressiveness in horticulture. Quite a 

 number of the younger generation of 

 commercial flower growers are gradu- 

 ates of this institution. 



Replying to the foregoing we would 

 not hesitate to use any of the plant 

 foods advertised in this paper. A hand- 

 ful of dried blood might be added to 

 the latania food as nothing will color 

 up the foliage so quickly. Liquid 

 cow manure is always good. What- 

 ever is used be careful not to give too 

 much at once. Better a little and 

 often. 



FIRES.
