Various Notes. 



Sherman Stephens & Son report that 

 the bad weather was hard on them at 

 Christmas time, as few people ventured 

 out to the cemetery; but trade has been 

 good since. 



The Livingston Seed Co. reports a 

 large business at Christmas and since 

 then there has been much funeral work 

 and decorating. 



T. J. Ludwig's said they had all the 

 force could take care of and were well 

 satisfied. 



Underwood Bros, had their usual rush 

 during the holidays and are still busy. 



The Munk Floral Co. had a fine lot of 

 cyclamens and a good, heavy cut of 

 roses. 



E. Metzmaier reports business good 

 in all branches. 



The Fifth Avenue Floral Co. had a 

 good cut of roses and carnations and a 

 good line of potted stock. It reports 

 business still heavy. 



The New Year's trade seemed to be 

 good all around, according to reports 

 , coming in. J. M. 



YELLOW SPOTS ON HAEEISII. 



Yellow spots are showing on the foli- 

 age of my Lilium Harrisii plants. These 

 spots resemble the carnation yellows 

 somewhat, but they are quite distinct 

 and affect the foliage toward the lower 

 part of the staJk. Please tell me the cause 

 of the trouble and give a remedy for it. 

 V. R. F.— Ind. 



Your lily foliage undoubtedly is af- 

 fected by a disease not at all uncommon 

 to this class of plants. The trouble is 

 usually caused by premature digging of 

 the bulbs, and propagating from dis- 

 eased stock. For this reason Harrisii 

 shipments have been comparatively 

 small of late years, but determined ef- 

 forts are being made in Bermuda, I be- 

 lieve, to stamp it out. If you have 

 treated your plants carefully you are 

 in no wise to blame for the trouble. It 

 is aggravated by an excess of water in
