FORT WORTH, TEX. 



Fort Worth has another new flower 

 store, opened August 16 by two former 

 employees of the leading florists here. 

 The Flower Shop, which is located in 

 the Flatiron building, has as president 

 and general manager W. H. Klebold, 

 formerly with Baker Bros. The vice- 

 president and assistant manager is 

 George E. Maxon, who was with the 

 Drumm Seed & Floral Co. before the 

 war and who is only now taking up his 

 former pursuits. The secretary and 

 treasurer is J. D. Stephens^ who is not a 

 florist but who is versed in the financial 

 affairs of corporations through long ex- 

 perience. The store was fitted up in 

 modern style by the fixture department 

 of the A. L. Eandall Co., Chicago, and 

 will rank as among the best equipped 

 in the state. Although opened before 

 the flower buying season had actually 

 arrived, tlie reception accorded by the 

 public has been such as to indicate that 

 a good business may be quickly devel- 

 oped. 



COUNCIL BLUFFS, lA. 



This city has a new flower store, well 

 located on Broadway and handsomely 

 fitted u]). The proprietor is F. E. Shaw, 

 who is well known to the trade through 

 his long connection with the J. F. Wil- 

 cox business. He calls his jka"/ place 

 the F. R. Shaw Flower Store and is 

 starting on an active camjiaign of ad- 

 vertising, ]>lanned to increase the use of 

 flowers by the prosperous people of the 

 community. It is his intention, evi- 

 denced by the equipment installed, to 

 have everything of the best and to do 

 a strictly high-class business. 



CHRISTMAS BULBOUS STOCK. 



Will Paper Whites come in right for 

 Christmas if ^ilanted ten or twelve 

 weeks before that date? When should 

 French Roman hyacinths be jiianted for 

 Christmas? These will be grown in a 

 carnation tomjierature; we begin firing 

 about Thanksgiving. C. B.— Ala. 



Paper Whites started throe months 

 before they are wanted in bloom will be 

 ail riglit. Roman hyacinths should be 

 placed in the soil as soon as you can 

 secure them; they need a longer period 

 than Pii|>er Whites. Keep both the 

 I'iipcr Wliites and the Romans in cold- 

 t'ranies or outdoors after they have been 

 ])laced in flats. Of course, you can plant 

 direct in the benches, but flats will 

 give you better results and are under 

 better control. Cover the flats with 

 sand or fine coal ashes until the tops 

 are well started. C. W. 



LUPINES AND CALENDULAS. 



What time should hiinnes he sown 

 for winter flowering? At what distance 

 apart siiould they be planted? Would a 

 tarnation temperature suit them? Do 

 tliey need tying up like carnations? 



When should calendulas be ]>lanted 

 and at wliat distance? C. M. — Can. 



Both lupines and ciilendulas grow 

 well in a carnation temperature in 

 benches or solid beds. I jirefer the 

 benches for midwinter blooming. The 

 annual ])ink lupine can be started now 

 and shouM flower for Christmas. Sow 

 thinly in rows eighteen inches apart. 

 The more roliust-growing sorts, like 

 mutabilis and Hartwegii, need wider
