"THE HOMK OF ASTXRS" 



HERBERT & FLEISHAUER 



McMINNVILLK, ORKGON 



Albert Zimmerman was elected a 

 member of the society, taking the place 

 of his brother, George, who has left 

 Portland. The committee on nomina- 

 tions presented the following nominees: 

 For president, E. J. Steele and James 

 Forbes; vice-president, Guy Pilkington. 

 and H. E. Weed; secretary, H. Niklas 

 and E. H. White; treasurer, E. E. Gehr 

 and F. A. "Van Kirk. These, together 

 with six nominees for trustees, will be 

 voted on at the June meeting. 



Eobert Newcomb, of Chicago, repre- 

 senting the American Bulb Co., at- 

 tended the meeting, and when called 

 on stated that he had no special mes- 

 sage to deliver from Chicago, but that 

 he brought good tidings about business 

 conditions he had found on his way to 

 the Pacific coast. He gave an interest- 

 ing talk on the new varieties of roses 

 and carnations which would be put on 

 the market this year and later. 



The question for the evening, which 

 related to the effects of department store 

 sales of plants and nursery stock, was 

 participated in by all; and it seemed 

 that the majority of the speakers could 

 not note any ill effects from such sales, 

 except the discouragement resulting 

 from the purchase of unsatisfactory 

 stock. The idea was expressed that the 

 great majority of the buyers of plants 

 at the 10 and 15-cent counters were not 

 of a class who would visit a florist, 

 except to order a small funeral token; 

 and the sales at the department stores 

 helped to move surplus stock. A lunch 

 and social chats and cards filled out the 

 evening. 



Various Notes. 



H. J. Millatt, of the store force of 

 Clarke Bros., is in the hospital, where he 

 was operated on for appendicitis. He is 

 reported to be recovering rapidly. 



William E. Wood, of the Scott-Wood 

 Co., says the delayed season has so 

 blocked the range of his company with 

 bedding stock that he hardly knows 

 which way to turn. He is not the only 

 one to suffer for want of room. 



Gene Robinson is cutting some of the 

 best sweet peas seen this season. The 

 stems of many of the flowers are twenty- 

 two inches in length. 



The question of help at the green- 

 houses is growing more serious. Good, 

 husky helpers can earn up to 40 cents 

 per hour at the steel shipyards, and 

 some of the men have gone into the 

 country to work on farms, thinking they 

 can thus avoid being taken into the 

 army. It seems as though they would 

 be as safe at the greenhouses. 



Thomas Bodley has his range filled 

 with Bonny Best tomatoes, which will 

 be yielding returns by June 1, The dark 

 weather has necessitated hand fertiliza- 

 tion to a large extent. S. W. W. 



WANTS WINTER ASTERS. 



Please tell me wliat asters to plant 

 for winter flowering. Should they be 

 grown in pots or in the bench in which 

 thev arc to flower? C. E. S.— Wash. 



None of the asters arc suitable for 

 winter flowering. You can, however, 

 profitably grow them as a late summer 

 or early fall crop, under glass. They 

 should be planted in beds or benches 

 in the same way as chrysanthemums, 

 and should be given similar soil and cul- 

 ture. Viftk's Branching and American 

 Branching are suitable varieties to grow 



It

To 



Pacific Coast 



Florists : 



What stock have you 



for sale to the trade? 

 Is it moving as it should? 

 No? 



Then tell the trade about 

 it by nsing the Pacific Coast 

 Pages of The Review. 



Pacific Coast advertisers al- 

 most invariably report good 

 results. Like this: 



Say! That ad's a humdlnser for rettlnt tha 

 business.— Everett Floral Co., Everett, Wash. 



I sold all the Mum cuttings advertised, and yon 

 will not hear from me again until I can get some 

 more stock ready. Shall root 100,000 Camation 

 cuttings for next season, as I know The Re'^ew 

 will sell them for me.— Frank Wilhelm, Los An- 

 geles, Cal. 



Flease cut out of our advertisement in The Rt- 

 yiew the cyclamen seedlings. We sold all our 

 surplus cyclamen seedlings as a direct result of 

 our advertisement in your paper.— Spokana 

 Greenhouses (Inc.), Spokane. Wash. 



We want to say that our last advertisement In 

 The Review brought us orders from both the At- 

 lantic and Pacific coasts. We had, strangely 

 enough, on following days, orders from Salem, 

 Ore., and from Salem, Mass.— State Floral Co.. 

 North Yakima, Wash. 



We are well pleased with the results obtained 

 by advertising in the Pacific Coast Department of 

 The Review. We sold out clean and refused 

 many orders. The Review surely gives resolta. 

 —Van Slyke & Seamons, Tacoma, Wash, 



The transient rate for space 

 is $1.25 per inch per insertion. 

 Those who have stock to offer 

 all or a considerable part of 

 the year around should write 

 for contract rates.
