The Florists' Review 



Mat 4. ldl«. 



PITTSBUEGH. 



The Market. 



Business was good all last week. 

 There were plenty of flowers and the 

 demand was active, winding up witk 

 a splendid Saturday, which cleaned up 

 everything in sight. In fact, April 

 proved to be a highly satisfactory 

 month, both to the plantsmen and the 

 cut flower growers. The conditions for 

 this week do not look so favorable, as 

 not a trolley car in the city is moving 

 and there are no signs of a settlement 

 of the strike of the street car em- 

 ployees. This strike, with that of thou- 

 sands of molders and mechanics, is 

 causing an extremely unsettled feeling. 

 The effect is felt today and will un- 

 doubtedly become worse the longer the 

 traction cars are tied up. 



Various Notes. 



Mrs. E. A. Williams had a full store 

 one day last week, when she was visited 

 by the kindergarten children from one 

 of the schools. There were about fifty 

 kiddies, all about 5 years old. After 

 they had seen the flowers and plants 

 and each one had received a bunch of 

 flowers, they sang flower songs and 

 songs of spring, and all concerned 

 thought it a happy event. 



The Florists' Club met May 2. Many 

 of the members brought outdoor or 

 seasonable flowers and the audience was 

 entertained with lantern slides showing 

 the flora of Washington state.

FIELD OR HOUSE 



GROWN CARNATIONS 



WHICH? 



■^m 



rpHAT ontdoor-grown car- 

 nation plants have under 

 favorable conditions a su- 

 perior vigor, even the house 

 growing advocates promptly 

 acknowledge. 



The decrease in outdoor 

 grown baa been largely due 

 to the inability to control 

 watering conditions. To de- 

 pend on Heaven's bounty is 

 entirely too uncertain. 



The Skinner overhead irri- 

 gation solves all ttiat. 



It turns an uncertnintr 

 Into a certainty. 



At planting time and lift- 



ing time alone, it is worth 

 Its cost. 



In the last year we have 

 perfected new noszles for 

 both inside and outside use. 

 They throw a t>etter stream, 

 and throw it faitber. They 

 come pretty near to being 

 a complete solution to all 

 "nozzle plugging" or stop- 

 page. A new drilling ma- 

 chine is another of our im- 

 provements. Also an auto- 

 matic water operated turn- 

 ing appliance. "It works 

 while you sleep," 



Send for new catalogue.
