^^Far Superior to Putty /^ — 



That's Mr. Burgevin's opinion of Permanite,^ that ever-elastic Glazing Cement. Burgevin, 

 Inc., of Kingston, N. Y., have used Permanite for a number of purposes, on their entire 

 range of houses, and have always found the material entirely satisfactory,, far superior to putty. 

 Mr. Burgevin's letter tells the story. .-• ' 



"la reference to Permanite Gazing Cement I wish to say that we are 

 now using it under the bottom row of glass in all our houses and find 

 that for this purpose Permanite is far aaperior to putty; Permanite stays 

 put, while putty crumbles and freezes out. This especially applies to the 

 houses that are connected, or ridge and furrow houses, where the ice has a 

 very deteriorating effect on putty, but does not harm the Permanite. 

 "It is with pleasure that we recommend your Permanite. " 



Permanite, that ever-elastic glazing cement, can be used for glazing, re-glazing or repair work of any kind: it is as good for 

 one purpose as it is for another. On new work Permanite does away with the usual bedding— the Permanite on top the glass 

 making an absolutely air and water-tight joint; on old work Permanite is far more economical than putty— doing the work 

 with less material and in less than half the time— and when it comes to mending broken glass, repairs of any kind, etc., 

 Permanite will do the work auickly. efficiently and economically. 



Ever-elastic and lasting— guaranteed to outlast putty three to four times— Permanite is the ONE SURK WAT toward 

 better, more economical and dependable glazing; write for our latest four-page folder— it will show you how— and why!

The Market. 



There is no doubt that Mothers' day 

 is now one of our biggest flower days. 

 There was a big supply of everything 

 in the cut flower line. Everything was 

 cleaned up by 11 o'clock excepting snap- 

 dragons and Darwin tulips. It was im- 

 possible to get a white flower after 9 

 'clock. 



A misstatement in the leading daily 

 paper May 9 had much to do with 

 the tremendous call for white carnations 

 and the refusal of many customers to 

 take any other flower. The paper stated 

 that the white carnation was the only 

 flower proper for Mothers' day, no mat- 

 ter if the mother was living or dead. 



Various Notes. 



Carl Gross has tired of being a 

 ' ' knight of the road ' ' and has again 

 become associated with Mr. Kennedy in 

 the Alpha Floral Co. 



Mr. Lewis, of the Columbine Floral 

 Co., had so much funeral work on the 

 morning of Mothers' day that he could 

 not sell cut flowers of any kind. 



Boldt & Lundy were busy taking F. 

 T, D. orders. Counter trade was so brisk 

 that two extra clerks were put on for 

 Mothers' day. 



The two stores of the New York Floral 

 Co. were sold out of white carnations by 

 9 a. m. and the other colors soon after.

Macon, Ga. — One-fourth of the Vic- 

 tory loan quota of this city was raised 

 early in the drive by a committee un- 

 der D. C. Horgan, of the Idle Hour 

 Nurseries. Mr. Horgan personally sub- 

 scribed $25,000.
