The September Show. 



A splendid example of cooperation 

 among florists will be seen at the indus- 

 trial exposition and fair to be held in 

 Cleveland September 2 to 9. One of 

 the big sections of this show will be a 

 flower display, and the particular fea- 

 ture of that display will be a commu- 

 nity exhibit by the Cleveland Florists' 

 Club. A fund for community adver- 

 tising has been raised by the florists 

 and something novel and impressive in 

 the way of a demonstration of flowers 

 may be looked for. 



Timothy Smith, chairman of the 

 flower show committee, has appointed 

 F. C. W. Brown, of the J. M. Gasser 

 Co.; Charles Bussell, of the Jones- Bus- 

 sell Co.; Frank Pitzenthaler, of Knoble 

 Bros., to plan and execute this most in- 

 teresting display. The committee plans 

 to distribute a neat folder calling the 

 attention of the public to the club's 

 progress in Cleveland. 



Among those who already have taken 

 space in the flower show tent are B. 

 Hammond Tracy, gladiolus specialist 

 Wenham, Mass.; the Stumpp & Walter 

 Co., bulbs and seeds, New York; the 

 John Scheepers Co., New York; the 

 Cleveland Bird - Lovers ' Association; 

 Eagle Wire Works, Liquid Fertilizer 

 Co., and the Garden Soil Co." Cleveland; 

 the Storrs & Harrison Co., Painesville, 

 O. A model greenhouse will be erected 

 by Hitchings & Co., of Elizabeth, N. J. 



Racine, Wis. — The tornado that swept 

 over Mount Pleasant township, just 

 outside the city limits of Bacine, on 

 the afternoon of August 4, carried the 

 W. S. Jackson greenhouse into Lake 

 Michigan. 



Lakewood, O. — The demand last 

 spring and at the holidays was so heavy 

 that Joseph T. Zika had to purchase 

 stock elsewhere in order to supply his 

 trade. Salvias, asters, snapdragons, 

 geraniums, begonias, coleus, primulas, 

 gloxinias — all have been easy sellers. 

 Mr. Zika grows his stock in a double- 

 glazed house.

PLANT TUBS 



EVERLASTING VIRGINIA WHITE CEDAR 



VERYBODY agrees that Plant Tubs made of 

 e^erlaating^ Virginia White Cedajr will 

 best resist rot or decay. The "Keystone" brand 

 of White Cedar Plant Tubs are made of this cele- 

 bratod wood, and these goods are painted inside 

 and out with best oil paints, a rich green. 



They are bound with heavy steel hoops for the large 

 size, and electric-welded wire hoops (galyanized) 

 on the small size. The large sizes are trimmed 

 with handsome drop handles and metal feet, and 

 hare perforated, removable bottoms. 



These Cedar Tubs are made in all sizes, from 24U 

 inches top diameter down to 6 inches, amply large 

 for a Bay Tree and small enough for a Hyacinth. 

 Every one guaranteed. Booklet in colors, with 

 prices, furnished upon request.
