DOUBLE SNAPDRAGON 



JUNE HEFKO 







JUNE HEFKO DOUBLE SNAPS. 



FOR October and later 

 delivery, a new Pink 

 Double Snapdragon for 

 the first time will be 

 offered to the trade. 



As it appeared in the FLO- 

 RISTS' REVIEW of May 13th, 

 it is the same size, color 

 and habit of growth as that of 

 Nelrose, except that it is per- 

 fectly double and absolutely seed- 

 less. It is practically everbloom- 

 ing, and as for keeping quality it 

 outlasts any flower I know of. It 

 is an excellent shipper, as the 

 flowers hold fast to the stem and 

 do not drop off in the box, and 

 the flowers are so full and double 

 that there is very little chance for 

 them to get bruised in transit. 

 If the reader wishes to know any 

 further details I will be pleased to 

 answer any correspondence. 



PRICES: 



Rooted Cuttings, $15.00 per 

 100, $125.00 per 1000; 2%-inch 

 plants, $17.00 per 100. 



The low price of this novelty 

 does not permit me to sell less 

 than 100 to a customer.

 Legislative Platform, 



The influence of political conventions

was felt at the nurserymen's convention 

 in the introduction of a platform on 

 legislative matters by President J. Ed- 

 ward Moon. In a circular presenting a 

 tentative outline to members before the 

 meeting, he said: 



"There has never been any public 

 statement of the nurserymen's position 

 regarding that legislation which has, in 

 recent years, come to direct and control 

 our industry in many ways. Some of 

 this legislation has been an advantage, 

 while some of it has imposed obligations 

 on us with which it is well-nigh im- 



possible to comply and, at the same time, 

 do a profitable business. 



"If such a platform is adopted, then 

 it will serve as a guide to our officers 

 in their legislative work, the member- 

 sliip will be cognizant of the position 

 of the association on these matters, and 

 the agricultural press and others who 

 may be interested may be reliably in- 

 formed of the nurserymen's position." 



The preamble to the platform, after 

 stating that "the members of the Amer- 

 ican Association of Nurserymen realize 

 the necessity as fully as any persons in
