Phil said it hardly socmed enough. 

 Raymond Brunswick showed that he 

 was the better business man by remark- 

 ing, that the charge was modest. 



Philip Freud arranged one of his 

 striking windows with birds in cages 

 to attract attention to bird seed at the 

 store of the Henry F. Michel! Co. Mr. 

 Freud is an expert on birds of all kinds. 



Thomas Meehan & Sons' nurseries

A Full Width Opening 

 and a Tight Close-Down 



\A^olf Ventilating Apparatus will open a series of sash up to 350 

 feet in length — from one operating station — using only 1-inch 

 single strength pipe shafting — without variation in width of 

 opening anywhere along the line. And it will pull every sash 



dow^n snug and tight on 

 the close-down, 



— this enables you to put your 

 operating stations at the most 

 convenient points. 



— it gives uniform ventilation 

 and makes a neat appearing 

 greenhouse. 



— it effects a material saving in 

 the cost of pipe for shafting.

PELABGONIUMS SCALDED. 



We are sending you some Easter 

 Greeting pelargonium leaves. We 

 should like to know what is the trouble 

 with them and also the proper remedy. 

 The leaves have spots on them as though 

 they had been scalded. Not many of 

 the plants are affected, but we should 

 like to halt the infeotion before it be- 

 comes worse. R. 



The pelargonium leaves have the ap- 

 pearance of being scalded by the sun. 

 The trouble is clearly not a fungus. We 

 have never had this appear on our stock. 

 We once had something similar, but at- 

 tributed it to either too damp atmos- 



phere at night or overfeeding. It did 

 not spread and did but little harm to 

 tlie j)lants affected. 



Our experience is that pelargoniums 

 should be in an airy, light place and 

 should be watered only when they are 

 certain to have dry foliage by night- 

 fall. S. C. T. 



GROWING TOMATOES. 



I have one greenhouse, 18x110 feet, 

 twelve feet to the ridge. I should like 

 to grow some tomatoes. How far apart 

 should I plant them and what tempera- 

 ture do they require? I should like to 

 plant about March 15. Could I grow 

 carnations, sweet peas and snapdragond 

 in the same house? C. B. — Mass. 



Tomatoes would do well in your house. 

 Prepare the soil well and plant sixteen 

 to eighteen inches apart each way and 

 train the plants to strings erect. Comet 

 is a good forcing variety, as is Victory. 

 A temperature of 55 to 60 degrees at 

 night suits tomatoes and you should 

 keep the atmosphere dry, just the re- 

 verse of cucumbers. You will find to- 

 matoes a profitable late spring and 

 summer crop and you are near a splen- 

 did market for all you can produce. 

 Carnations, sweet peas and snapdragons 

 will do well in the same house. Give 

 the snapdragons the cooler end of the 

 house. C. W.
