The Florists^ Review 



JAN0ABZ 16, 1919. 



may be necessary to have a little more 

 radiation in severe weather than has 

 been suggested, but one additional pipe 

 will suffice for three or four additional 

 feet of glass. 



If, after the changes suggested have 

 been made, the air in the greenhouse is 

 still too dry, we would syringe the 

 plants and wet down the walks in the 

 middle of the afternoon, and again wet 

 down the walks when leaving the house 

 at night. Judgment should be used 

 about syringing the plants, especially if 

 cold water only is available, but it can 

 generally be done with safety to most 

 plants, on sunshiny days.

The Market. 



We are having the finest weather, 

 with bright days and frosty nights. 

 Business continues steady and satisfac- 

 tory. There are enough flowers to go 

 around. Greens are plentiful. There 

 is an abundance of carnations of good 

 quality at $1.50 to $2 per dozen. Eoses 

 are in shorter supply. Sweet peas are 

 coming in more freely, while calendulas, 

 Paper Whites, Boman hyacinths, etc., 

 are in fair supply. There are a few 

 mums still to be seen and some pompons. 



Various Notes. 



Theodore Kuebler is cutting fine car- 

 nations. He also is cutting mums, chief- 

 ly Mistletoe. He says he will have 

 mums up to April. 



The Lockyear Floral Co. is enjoying 

 a brisk business. 



C. L. Niednagel has a fine stock of 

 coleus, including Brilliancy. 



Sergeant Walter Blackman has ob- 

 tained his release from the army and 

 returned to his duties at the store of 

 the William Blackman Floral Co. 

 George Blackman says he will let Wal- 

 ter manage his business also, as his 

 health is not so good and he will take a 

 needed rest. 



Mr. Miller, who has been here recent- 

 ly selling Ironite, is certainly a per- 

 suasive talker and a good salesman. He 

 appears to be well informed on horti- 

 cultural matters, also. He brought let- 

 ters from western growers and supply 

 houses claiming great things for Ironite. 

 His plan is to ship a few bags to the 

 town he is going to, go out and sell 

 them, deliver them at once by taxi and 

 then go on to the next place. At least 

 that is the method used here. He sold 

 to several growers here who seemed 

 skeptical even after they had invested 

 in the preparation. E. L. F. 





Here's Somethino to Think About 



The most economical for you to buy 

 is the longest service paint. Labor 

 for repainting is more costly than 

 the higher price asked for the best 

 protective paint— 



DIXON'S Silici-Braphite PAINT 

 It holds the record of being the long- 

 est service paint in the greenhouse 

 field. Write for Booklet No. 64-B 

 and long service records. Est. 1827.

For Germinating 

 Small Seed 



From one of our customers, George 

 Halloclc & Son. Orient. L. I.. N. Y., 

 we received the following: 



"We also found a slight wetting 

 very beneflcial at times in get- 

 ting small seed to come up when 

 conditions were unfavorable for 

 germination. The value of this 

 feature at times needs no com- 

 ment."
