BOSES WANTED. 



A few patriotic florists are wanted to 

 furnish, through the Washington repre- 

 sentative of the S. A. F., William F. 

 Gude, 800 roses of one variety, 1,200 

 carnations of one variety, and 200 va- 

 rieties, not more than six^of each, from 

 a list which may be obtained from Mr. 

 Gude. 



As these are for experiments by the 

 United States government, there should 

 be no trouble in receiving them prompt- 

 ly, for the untold benefit to be derived 

 by availing ourselves of these experi- 

 ment gardens is worth many, many 

 times the cost of the roses. 



Wm. F. Gude, 

 Washington Bepresentative, S. A. F. 



BOSTON TO CLEVELAND. 



Is New England going to be properly 

 represented at the convention of the 

 S. A. F., at Cleveland, this month? 

 There should be at least fifty members 

 of the trade from this section, or it is 

 not doing its fair share in the great 

 work. The convention will help you 

 settle your problems. Some of the im- 

 portant topics, of vital interest to all 

 members of the trade, to be taken up 

 and discussed are the publicity cam- 

 paign, the coal situation and the organ- 

 ization of a national flower growers' 

 association. 



Are you going? Can you afford to 

 miss it? 



The railroad fare from Boston is 

 $22.01 and the cost of a lower berth is 

 $4.59, making a total of $26.60. The 

 train leaves South station, Boston, Mon- 

 day, August 16, at 2 p. m.; Newton ville, 

 2:15 p. m.; Worcester, 3:15 p. m.; 

 Springfield, 4:35 p. m., and Pittsfield, 

 6:20 p. m. 



The New York Florists' Club will 

 have a special train for its members and 

 others who wish to go with them. Many 

 florists from Philadelphia intend to go 

 on the New Yorkers' special and there 

 will be a large crowd. There will be 

 something doing all the way with this 

 delegation. Those who wish to go with 

 this special should make reservations 

 it once with C. Lowther, Box 100, Times 

 dquare station, New York city. The 

 special leaves Hoboken, N. J., at 10:20 

 a. m., August 16, eastern standard time. 



Don't forget to make hotel reserva- 

 tions in advance! Make them now, 

 either direct to the hotels or to the 

 committee on hotels of the Cleveland 

 Florists' Club, James McLaughlin, 

 chairman, 421 High avenue, Cleveland. 

 Some of the best hotels are the Hollen- 

 den, which will be convention headquar- 

 ters; Statler, Cleveland, Winton and 

 Olmsted. Rooms from $2.50 per day 

 up. The sky is the limit.

EXHIBITOBS AT CLEVELAND. 



Number Surpasses Last Tear's. 



The trade's display at Cleveland is 

 likely to prove the best that members of 

 the S. A. F. have seen in several years. 

 The small space at Detroit crowded the 



first post-bellum display, and the short- 

 age of supplies and abundance of or- 

 ders made the inclination against rather 

 than for staging an exhibit. This year 

 supplies are somewhat more plentiful in 

 some lines and orders are more ener- 

 getically sought. Whereas there were 

 less than seventy exhibitors of all kinds 

 at Detroit last year, including even 

 those who had only desk space, Secre- 

 tary Young has already in his hands 

 the names of over eighty applicants for 

 space in the Ninth Garage, at Cleve- 

 land. The aisles have been narrowed 

 already to afford more area for exhib- 

 its, and limitation of available room is 

 likely to prevent some from exhibiting 

 who would wish to.
