The Florists^ Review 





Jolt 6, 1916. 



T?l 



slabs measuring six inches on the bot- 

 tom and eight on the side may be used. 

 The upper edge need not be more than 

 one and one-quarter inches thick. For 

 reinforcing the bottom slabs, three 14- 

 inch rods should be placed about three- 

 eighths of an inch from the bottom and 

 six inches apart. There should be three 

 rods in the angle pieces. 



A good height for the ridge of a 

 greenhoiisp twenty-three feet wide, with 

 walls six feet high, is thirteen feet. 

 The ventilating sash should be long 

 enough to cover five rows of glass, and 

 although the use of a continuous row 

 of sashes has some merits, it will prob- 

 ably answer in Nova Scotia if there 

 are two o-ows of glass between the 

 sashes. A width sufficient for 24-inch 

 glass would be desirable. 



EVANSVILLE, IND, 



The Market. 



The weather shifted from cold and 

 wet to hot and sultry, and business 

 suffered accordingly; that is, it became 

 dull. Thermometers on the streets went 

 as high as 100 degrees.. The usual sum- 

 mer work prevails at all the green- 

 houses. 



Various Notes. 



The meeting of the Florists' Club, 

 held at Theodore Kuebler's, was en- 

 joyed by all who came out. Each 

 member was presented with a box or 

 two of strawberries by Mr. Kuebler. 

 W. A, Rieman, of Vincennes, Ind., gave 

 a talk on peonies and plants. The next 

 meeting will be held at the Otto Kueb- 

 ler place, Newburg, Ind., July 12. 



E. L. Fenton has returned from 

 Meadville, Pa., where he attended the 

 funeral of his mother, who died Wednes- 

 day, June 21. Mr. Fenton was away 

 three weeks and visited Henry J. Krue- 

 ger, of Meadville; John Young, of 

 Youngstown, O.; William Dittmann and 

 the South Park Floral Co., of New- 

 castle, Ind. E. L. F. 



Jasper, Ind. — Arno H. Nehrling and 

 Miss Ada K. Joseph were married here 

 June 29 and are on their honeymoon in 

 Colorado. Prof. Nehrling is well known 

 through his connection with the depart- 

 ment of floriculture at Amherst, Mass., 

 and previously at Urbana, 111.

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 refrigeration. 



The various compartments in a McCRAY 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 McCRAY. Make it a partner in your business. 

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

 cents value. Investigate anyway!
