THE SPRINGFIELD FLORAL & FERN CO., SPRINGFIELD, OHIO 



So does any other business, for that 

 matter. A commercial orchardist has 

 to know what he is about. Ho must 

 know how to prune and spray his trees; 

 he must know exactly what to spray for 

 and why and when; he must know what 

 spray materials to use and he must have 

 the efficient machinery to use them. But 

 these are things that the average farmer 

 docs not know and things that he does 

 not have. His situation is about this: 

 There is no local shop in his town where 

 he can find sprayers and materials; he 

 sends to Sears Roebuck & Co. for his 

 tank, he goes to the farmers' supply 

 store for his lime-sulphur, to the coal 

 yard for liis lime, to the seed store for 

 his blaok-leaf-forty, and goodness knows 

 where for repairs that he can not make 

 himself; not to mention the hardware 

 store for brass screen and the candy 

 store for wooden pails and some otlier 

 place for arsenic and somewhere else 

 for directions. 



"When the farmer is up against that 

 sort of tiling, fighting with the bugs for 

 the apples on a few trees, I can under- 

 stand why the bugs sometimes win out 

 and the farmer decides to buy his fruit. 



"We want the farmer to grow some 

 fruit at home, but we've got to boost 

 up his spirits and help him do it. 



"It is all well to spend money to en- 

 courage folks to buy trees, but if there 

 is anything in Dr. Bailey's statement 

 that our goods are a ninety-nine per cent 

 failure, then we had better spend some 

 time and money in telling people how 

 to take care of what they buy from us. 



Extending Service. 



"The automobiles have service sta- 

 tions scattered all over the country. 

 They make touring easy. The nursery 

 industry is not large enough to warrant 

 nurserymen, even collectively, setting 

 up service stations. But would it not

Our new Ward pink seedling has a beautiful 

 formed flower on long, stiff stems; of an even 

 shade of Ward pink. It is a good grower in 

 the field and under glass and a free and con- 

 tinuous bloomer, good keeper and shipper.

 agencies like tlie state experiment sta- 

 tions, the farm bureau agents and the 

 county agricultural demonstrators! 

 Could we not see to it that public lec- 

 tures are arranged and demonstrations 

 staged at the right time for spraying! 

 I notice that at many of the insti- 

 tutes held this winter, time is given to 

 orchards and fruit growing, but we 

 ought to see to it that this department 

 of agriculture receives attention every- 

 where. And could not some arrange-
