LABELS FOR NURSERYMEN AND FLORISTS.

The Market. 



The supply of stock now is adequate, 

 but until the present time there has not 

 been enough surplus to warrant any un- 

 easiness. Good roses are scarce, but 

 the cut of carnations is gradually grow- 

 ing larger and better. Chrysanthemums 

 are at their best. Fine blooms of Wil- 

 liam Turner and Odessa are being 

 offered. 



Business has been good and Novem- 

 ber sales :io far show a good increase 

 over those of last year for the same 

 period. 



Various Notes. 



The C. W. Crouch Co. has been ex- 

 ceedingly busy of late, and, with the 

 exception of valley and orchids, it has 

 had an abundant supply of stock. The 

 men are cutting large quantities of fine 

 chrysanthemums. 



The following salesmen called on the 

 trade last week: Kobert Shoch, repre- 

 senting the M. Rice Co., Philadelphia; 

 Albert P. Stevens, of the Hubbs & 

 Corning Co., Baltimore. Mr. and Mrs. 

 Haeger, of the W, F. Haeger Floral Co., 

 Chattanooga, Tenn., were visitors in 

 Knoxville November 10 and 11. 



Many here were shocked to hear of 

 the sudden death of Thomas C. Joy, of 

 Nashville. Mr. Joy was well known and 

 highly esteemed by florists here. He 

 had on several occasions been a guest 

 at meetings of tlie Knoxville Florists' 

 Society. In his death we feel that the 

 south loses one of its best florists and 

 citizens. R. E, M. 



INSECTS ON SNAPDRAGONS. 



Can you tell us the trouble with the 

 enclosed snapdragon The variety is 

 Keystone and the plants are growing in 

 the same bench with Nelrose and 

 Phelps' White, but these varieties are 

 not affected in any way. There were 

 some chinch bugs in the house, but if 

 these are the cause of the trouble it 

 seems as if the other varieties would 

 be affected in the same way. 



L. C. S. & S.— N. Y. 



This looks like the work of either 

 chinch bugs or grasshoppers, more prob- 

 ably the latter. If they trouble you 

 another season, it will be well to use a 

 poisonous spray, such as arsenate of 

 lead, to check them. This whitens the 

 foliage, but will clean out the pests. I 

 do not imagine you will have any 

 further trouble this season. I would 

 advise pinching back affected plants 

 well. C. W. 



A SELECTION OF PHLOXES. 



What would be the best selection of 

 six varieties of hardy phloxes, consid- 

 ering color and habit f 



G. E. Y.— Okla. 



My choice as to the best selection of 

 hardy phloxes would be as follows: 

 Albion, white; Thor, pink; Antonin 

 Mercie, lilac; Europa, pink and white 

 combination; Rheinlandor, red, and 

 Riverton .Jewel, pink. These we con- 

 sider the best growers, best in their re- 

 spective colors and in hardiness.
