Greenhouse Material, Greenhouse Hardivare, Permanite, Paint, etc 



blue, white and pink hyacinths and daf- 

 fodils. An extensive amount of funeral 

 work was also reported. 



John Holze, of the Queen City Floral 

 Co., reports the handling of a large 

 luncheon decoration recently where Co- 

 lumbia roses were used freely. 



Growers who handle a part of their 

 rose bushes outdoors report consid- 

 erable difficulty in preventing more or 

 less loss through the inroads of the pow- 

 dery mildew. One grower states he has 

 secured best results in fighting this dis- 

 ease through a dust spray of nine parts 

 flowers of sulphur and one part arsenate 

 of lead. 



The Woodlawn Flower Shop handled 

 two of the largest funeral pieces seen 

 here in some time for the Rhodes fu- 

 neral. One of these consisted of a 12- 

 foot broken wheel, while the other con- 

 sisted of a large standing wreath. 



A novel floral piece was prepared re- 

 cently for a funeral by Gus Peterson, 

 of the Hollywood Gardens. It was a 

 reproduction of an old Spanish galleon, 

 about four feet in length, done in red 

 carnations, while the high cabin house 

 aft was produced with daffodils. Silken 

 sails completed the miniature ship. 



II. P. Anderson, of the University 

 Floral Co., has lately been making a 

 special showing of single tulips and 

 hyacinths in small pots, and reports a 

 fine demand for these on the part of the 

 uui\crsity students. H. M. 



Cromwell, Conn. — The weight of 

 snow did some damage to the green- 

 houses of A. N. Pierson, Inc., February 

 23. It was necessary to put supports 

 under the roof in some parts to keep it 

 from breaking down. 



Coming, N. Y. - — Mrs. William E. 

 Barnes left recently for Buffalo, where 

 she will spend several weeks with the 

 Anderson Floral Co. She is to study 

 the construction of floral designs and 

 upon her return she and Mr. Barnes 

 will open a shop in connection with the 

 former Johnson greenhouses, which they 

 now conduct.
