color reproduction of the lapel button 

 of this organization. Ralph Anderson 

 is away on his vacation. 



The Woodlawn Flower Shop handled 

 an unusual lunclieon decoration at the 

 Sunset Club last week, using tall vases 

 set among the tables as the chief items. 

 Hollyhocks left the full length of their 

 stems were used in these, while smaller 

 baskets of summer flowers were worked 

 in on the tables proper. The color 

 scheme was in light and dark pink and 

 all flowers chosen were of one of these 

 shades. 



George Trafton has been bringing in 

 some of the best snapdragon seen here 

 for the entire season, this being true of 

 both solid yellow and the red and yel- 

 low varieties. 



Anna V. Amundson, of the Annavee 

 8hop, at Yakima, was a recent trade 

 visitor. General business conditions in 

 the Yakima valley are showing every 

 promise of improvement and the florists 

 expect to share in this increase. 



An increased cut of bouvardia and 

 stephanotis is reported for the green- 

 houses of McCoy 's, and the same is 

 true of roses. 



The Seattle Fern & Moss Co. notes 

 a resumption of shipping business from 

 a number of organizations which have 

 been rather inactive of late, especially 

 in the intermountain territory. Some 

 fine shipping stock is offered here at 

 present. 



A heavier delivery of violas is wel- 

 comed by the trade, since this item is 

 .ilways in demand here. Fred W. Win- 

 ters is bringing in the greater share of 

 this stock at present. H. M.

Cannas and Cats 



Ever hear Loyd C. Bunch of Fredonia, Kansas, cram 



a three hundred word talk into about seventeen and 



a half? 



If you haven't you will appreciate his cat and canna 



remark. 



If you have, you will doubly appreciate it. 



He says: "Healthy cannas lap up water like a cat 



does milk. Give both all they need of both, and both 



will be sleek and fat. 



"Look at those King Humberts; they have so many 



glad rags on, that a lot of the florists who look at them, 



don't know it's his Nibs. 



What's the secret of my heavy root clumps? 



More than half of it is the Skinner System of watering."' 



That then is the half you need. 



Give us the length and width of the piece of ground 

 you want to irrigate, and we will send you some 

 interesting facts.
