number of low-priced baskets in the 

 Third avenue show window. These are 

 marked with the prices and enough of a 

 variety shown to interest passers-by. 



Bosaia Bros, attracted attention to 

 their window last week with a vase 

 showing the cattleyas grown by this 

 firm, surrounded by smaller vases of 

 gardenias and lily of the valley. The 

 orchids were especially deep in color 

 and few passers-by neglected the chance 

 to study these flowers. A supply of 

 cyclamens is being handled as well and 

 the cut of bouvardias has been increas- 

 ing. 



Jack Sahlia, grower, who has recently 

 purchased property near here, reports 

 good progress on the greenhouses there. 



Among the representatives of seed 

 firms on the recent trade tour of the 

 Seattle Chamber of Commerce were W. 

 C. Hasbert, of the C. H. Lilly Co., and 

 H. G. Lage, of the Northwest Seed Co. 

 AH of the larger cities in eastern Wash- 

 ington were visited. 



A new fall list of bulbs, plants and 

 seeds for fall planting has been issued 

 by Eandall-McLoughlin, of Seattle and 

 Tacoma. This 4-page folder is an at- 

 tractive example of the printers' art. 



C. Malmo, of Malmo & Co., last week 

 received a large direct shipment of Hol- 

 land bulbs and reports an unusual inter-

WHAT THRIP JUICE No. 2 WILL DO 



OHBYSANTHESCUMS ON LONG ISLAND. 



Mr. Benjamin Hammond, Beacon, N. Y. Woodside, L. I., N. Y., Oct. 20, 1913. 



Dear Sir: I find your Tbrip Juice No. 2 a good thing to use on Chrysanthe- 

 mums. Kindly send bill for the last gallon shipped, and oblige, 



Yours respectfully. (Signed) VICTOB S. DOEVAL SONS. 



THBIPS ON OABNATIONS. 



"Dear Mr. Editor: Please advise how to remedy the trouble affecting Carna- 

 tion buds mailed under separate cover. Kansas. P. W. F. 



Ans: "The Carnation buds are badly infested with Thrips. Upon opening up 

 two or three of the buds we found them alive with these pests. Thrips are one 

 of the worst enemies that Carnation growers have to deal with, and the only 

 way to fight them successfully is to get after them by spraying the plants regularly 

 with the Nicotine preparations as soon as they are planted into the houses from 

 the field and keep at it continually until weather conditions will al low for fumi- 

 gation. For stubborn cases we spray with HAMMOND'S THBIF JUICE No. 2, 

 applied as per directions on the cans. This is an oily substance and will cause 

 the foliage of the plants to look a lighter green, but we have never found it to 

 harm the foliage at all. C. W. JOHNSON." 



THBIP JUICE NO. 2 ON BOSES. 



Hopeland Estate, Staatsburg, N. Y., Dec. 20, 1913. 

 Hammond's Paint & Slug Shot Wor ks, B eac on, N . Y. 



Dear Sirs: I have used your THBIP JUICE No. 2 on outdoor Boses, also 

 Boses indoors, as well as Bay Trees and other hard-wooded stock, and can say it 

 is a most efficient remedy for Scale, Mealy Bug and Thrips. Very truly yours, 



(Signed) CHAS. HABMAN, Supt. 



Kansas City, Mo., Oct. 7, 1914. 



Col. Wm. Sharp, f or mo re than twenty-five years grower for Samuel Murray, 

 says: "I have found THBIP JUICE No. 2 very effective for White Scale on 

 Cattleyas and variegated Pineapples, Brown Scale on Ficus and Palms. 



While several applications may be necessary, it is cheaper in the end than 

 Nicotine and far more effective. 



Our farmer finds it a cure for the Curculio on Plums. Send along five gal- 

 lons as before." W. M. 



Springfield, Ohio, Feb. 17, 1915. 



Schmidt & Botley Co. endorse THBIP JUICE No. 2 for killing the White Fly. 

 They believe in prevention, and took steps at onc e to destroy it. 



Gustav Schneider says he uses THBIP JUICE No. 2 regularly, more as a 

 preventive, and never had a finer lot of Chrysanthemums than last season. At one 

 time the plants were affected with rust, but one or two sprayings brought them 

 around. 



Charlotte, N. C, Nov. 14, 1914. 

 Eobert Lockerbie, many years with the Bobt. Craig Co., and now grower for 

 the Charlotte Cut Flow er Co., says he has used all makes of Insecticides and is 

 now using THBIP JUICE No. 2 for Thrips on Chrysanthemums and Carnations. 

 The dilution of one to forty is proper. Sprayed on cloudy days, every week or ten 

 days, left on foliage for 48 hours, it never faila to kill the insect and the slight 

 discoloration on foliage is offset by its usefulness. W. M.
