rinl. ;it the City Club Tuesday evening, 

 Juno 7. Eobert Craig will reply, giving 

 the commercial side. 



A party of students from State Col- 

 lege visited the greenhouses of the 

 Joseph Heacock Co., at Eoelofs, May 

 27. They said that there were 150 stu- 

 dents of horticulture at Penn State. 



Quietly Kenneth Meehan is coming 

 to the front as one of our capable cut 

 flower salesmen. 



Myers & Samtman say that the new 



/ HAVE BEEN ASKED 



"WHY DYE SWEET PEAS?" 



First; there is no real yellow, apricot or 

 burnt oranKe jiea supplied by nature. 



Second; people like these colors and 

 .•iliadrs. and buy them repeatedly, just as 

 they do lavender, pink. etc. 



Third; the greater the variety of de- 

 sirable colors olTered the public, the more 

 peas the retailer sells. Try it and see. 



Fourth: the cost is almost nil. One 

 quait will (Ive about 2.!;0(l, or one cent 

 per bunch of 25. 



Fifth; usually f1ori.<its need white or 

 very light pink peas in quantity only 

 occasionally, and at other times they 

 may be dyed. 



Sixth; In design work, such as the 

 "Eastern Star," one reeds yellow flow- 

 ers that stantj up well. At such times 

 yellow carnations are of special pervlce 

 and may be made from white ones over 

 night. 



Seventh; try yellow, apricot or burnt 

 orange peas with deep blue or purple In 

 corsage work, etc. 



Some, In making trial order, write as 

 if they expect to be "skinned." All such 

 are going to be agreeably surprised. If 

 I were npt sure the dye would do Just 

 as 1 claim, so it will bring repeat orders, 

 1 should not fiffer it for .«ale at all. I 

 think life entirely too short for one to be 

 anything else than "on the square." It 

 it not practicable to offer free samples, 

 and the dollar trial orders wllj not likely 

 pay expen.ses while 1 am convincing you. 



Some seem to think the flowers are 

 dipped and the dye on the outside. Wo 

 fill Jelly glasses three-quarters full of the 

 dye solution and stand stems of fresh cut 

 peas in this in the evening, leaving them 

 thus over night. In the morning lift 

 them out, rinse dye off stems and stand 

 them In fresh water as though just cut, 

 and in a few minutes thev may be 

 bunched without staining the hands But 

 should any of this dye get on the hands, 

 a little borax and water, or even so*p 

 lather, quickly takes It oft. 



PRICE, sufficient to make one quart, $1.00, prepaid. Six for $5.C0
