The Florists^ Review 



June 28, 1917. 



Mr. Bolgiano is married and has a 

 sou, Cliarles W. Bolgiano, whom he is 

 educating at Cornell University with a 

 view to his entering the seed business. 

 The boy makes annual trips to the grow- 

 ing points of the west to become famil- 

 iar with the various kinds of vegetables, 

 the seeds of which he expects to handle 

 when he enters the business. 



In 1914 Mr. Bolgiano organized his 

 business into a corporation under the 

 name of F. W. Bolgiano & Co., Inc. 



MOTT-LY GLEANINGS. 



"Kemember that the eyes of the 

 potato are upon you," quotes one. 

 ' ' Yes, and remember also that the eyes 

 of the bug are upon the potato," adds 

 another. "Further, the eyes of the 

 gardener will be upon the seedsman 

 more closely than ever, henceforth," ob- 

 served David Eddy,, of Eddy & Sons, 

 Saratoga Springs, N. Y. " Those who 

 retail seeds must be veritable encyclo- 

 pedias of agricultural information," he 

 continued. "We compiled a descriptiva 

 and attractive booklet entitled 'Do 

 Your Part.' Our leading bank handed 

 out more than 5,000 and, needless to 

 say, it was mutually beneficial." 



Baker Bros., of Eutland, Vt., report 

 a good, but backward, seed season. 



The seed store of Graham Bros., on 

 Sparks street, Ottawa, Ont., has burst 

 into flame, so to speak, for it was but a 

 few years back that the business was 

 conducted in a comparatively insig- 

 nificant way, though it filled all re- 

 quirements at that time. The present 

 biHlding is in keeping with the rapid 

 march of healthy progress noted on all 

 sides. Excellent demand is reported, 

 with the season fully four weeks late. 

 W. M. 



Logansport, Ind. — The Pleasant Hill 

 Greenhouse is conducted by Mrs. Lilian 

 B. McDonald and her daughter. They 

 have made a success of the business for 

 twelve years and Mrs. McDonald has 

 educated and graduated two sons for the 

 trade, both of whom now are located at 

 Milwaukee. A. H. McDonald is man- 

 ager of the flower department of Gim- 

 bel Bros., while Frederick McDonald is 

 with Holton & Hunkel Co.

Profits in the greenhouse business are larger 

 than ever. What does it matter if the original 

 investment ia a trifle greater? It's the per- 

 centage of profit that counts after all. 



Before the advance, we contracted for a big 

 supply of Louisiana Red Cypress lumber. We 

 are therefore still in a position to make you 

 exceedingly attractive prices on strictly guar- 

 anteed greenhouse work. Write immediately 

 — before you misplace this address.
