An (dnborate dinner was served at 



Powers' h()t(d .lanuarv 



to the stock- 



holders of .lames Vick 's Sons. Prob- 

 ably the main object of this dinner was 

 to further discuss the advisability of 

 increasing the coiu'ern 's productions 

 and adding to its facilities. It was 

 made known that contracts were far 

 ahead of tliose of any previo\is year. 

 One of the members said they have con- 

 tracts aggregating 1,000 pounds of phlox 

 seed; l,iiO() pounds of mignonette seed; 

 1,500 pounds of candytuft seed and 

 .1,000 pounds of aster seed. It was de- 

 cided to pundiase an additional 100 

 acres of l.-ind to meet the growing de- 

 mand. M'he effect of the European war 

 has been tremendous in the seed busi- 

 ness. Mr. Vi(dv said. "It gave us a 

 foothold-— one that will be pet ni.'ineiit. ' '

 waxc c;i\ight some of us unprepared 

 ami tender stocdi in the cold corners 

 suffered. 1 lost a few colons and some 

 geraniums in the coldframes were dam- 

 aged, but I hear that others were not 

 so fortunate." So says G. C. Watkins

McCray Florists 

 Refrigerators 



The McCRAY construction keeps flowers cool and fresh longer 

 than by any other system of refrigeration. It provides an even 

 temperature of the correct degree for cut flowers and stops the 

 great waste and profit loss that is caused by imperfect retrigeration 



The various compartments in a McCR.AY are of different 

 sizes to accommodate the different lengths of cut flower stems and 

 your flowers are given an inviting display. 



For interior linings you have your choice of either handsome 

 bevel plate mirror or beautiful white enamel, which are very easy 

 to clean. The exterior may be of any finish desired to match the 

 interior of your store woodwork or other fixtures. 



Invest in a McCR.\Y. Make it a partner in your business. 

 You will value it move highly than its mere intrinsic dollar and- 

 cents value. Investigate anyway!
