Florists* 

 Refrigerators 



We manufacture, in our own plant, a complete 

 line of florists' refrigerators. While we nave 

 many popular standard designs, most refrig- 

 erators are built for individual requirements. 



Brecht Refrigerators are the result of 67 years' 

 experience. They are designed on a scien> 

 tific basis, from the best material obtainable, 

 and are built to give greatest service with 

 minimum ice consumption. 



We will be glad to quote you on our standard 

 designs, or to offer suggestions and submit 

 special designs upon receipt of your require- 

 ments.

to be staged in Horticultural hall Au- 

 gust 14 and 15. Exhibits are coming 

 from Ohio, Indiana and other distant 

 points and a superb show is assured. 

 The large local growers, such as J. K. 

 Alexander, B. Hammond Tracy, Brook- 

 lands Gardens, Jelle Boos, C. F. Fair- 

 banks and others, have their fields in 

 grand condition and a fair number of 

 bulbs are already blooming, notably the 

 popular primulinus varieties. 

 Local retailers complain of the great 



dearth of summer-flowering pot plants. 

 Outside of a few hydrangeas, nothing is 

 really procurable and there is always a 

 call for them even in the hottest weather. 

 In addition to geraniums and hydran- 

 geas, such plants as tuberous-rooted be- 

 gonias, achimenes, allamandas, browal- 

 lias, gloxinias, gesneras, Lilium spe- 

 cioBum and auratum, agapanthus and 

 francoas are suggested as desirable sum- 

 mer subjects. 

 There is a perceptible improvement in 



the labor market. The closing down of 

 many mills and factories has made it 

 easier for farmers to secure laborers 

 near the industrial centers and florists 

 note an improvement in conditions com- 

 pared with last spring. W. N. 0.
