Benjamin Ohase Co.. Derry Village. N. H 



Hannibal, Mo. — Vernon Griffen, -who 

 lias cliarge of tlie growing end of the 

 business of Griffen & Sons, has found 

 acid pliospliate a wonderful help on the 

 clay soil in his vicinity. Used with cow 

 manure, the combination seems to be 

 just right. It hastens the growth of 

 practically all greenhouse crops. Used 

 as a top-dressing for sweet peas, the 

 rapidly growing foliage docs not mildew 

 and the buds do not drop. 



Pekin, 111.— In the George A. Kuhl es- 

 tnlilishuicut there is a grpciiliouse 18x100 

 which Mr. l-Culil ercctcil over thirty 

 years ago, of cypress material obtained 

 from the .loliii C. ^Moningcr Co., Chicago. 

 Tlic wood gutters havo always boon kept 

 jiaiuted and the original 1-inch steam 

 ]ii]ies have never been removed. The 

 luiiiso at jircseiit is in IJiissell roses, the 

 plants l)i'iiig 1 vi'ars old. The cut from 

 this house in llii' week before l-aster 

 w;is over 200 flowers per day. 



Schenectady, N. Y. — A tour among the 

 trade dis''l(ised a highly satisfactory 

 condition of business. All salable stock 

 was cleaned out at prices that will con- 

 vince the pessimist that tliere is good 

 money to be made, and the optimist 

 will be spurreil to greater efforts. To 

 describe individual cases would be dif- 

 ficult, as no great attenij)ts at display 

 were made, for the reason that sales 

 lu'gan early and if was impossible to 

 keep u}) any kind of a show. Azaleas 

 wer( not missed. R.amblers and hybrid 

 roses, with Freiudi liydrangeas, went 

 like the proverbial hot cakes. The 

 growers were completely cleaned out.
