AUTUMN GOLD 



(BLOOMS OCT. 12th) 



THE NEW SINGLE MUM OF RICH GOLDEN YELLOW 



BECAUSE it has good color, blooms early and is a great 

 producer, Autumn Gold has been the best selling chrys- 

 anthemum in our store for the past three years. It is the 

 creation of Mr. Pierre Schneider of Creve Coeur, Missouri.— 

 Awarded the A. C. S. certificate at Chicago convention.

stocks 



stone snapdragons and Lenox 

 were extra fine. 



At Peter Brown 's geranium and pansy 

 establishment we were escorted by Mr. 

 Brown and his son. After going through 

 this well kept place, we were served 

 with refreshments by Mr. Brown, and 

 these consisted of wine and cigars. 

 From here we went to Fred Ritchy's 

 place, where geraniums are the only 

 output. Endless quantities of fine stock 

 were seen here. Mr. Ritchy annually 

 handles many carloads of lettuce and 

 celery and other produce. At Fred Ruof 

 & Sons' carnations and sweet peas are 

 in fine condition. They also grow many 

 potted blooming plants anjl handle im- 

 mense quantities of bulbs over the 

 Easter season. The sons also conduct 

 a well regulated market stand and do 

 a fine business. 



At Suter, Bauman & Caldwell's we 

 saw some of the best carnations noted 

 throughout the trip. Sweet peas and 

 daisies for cutting were noticed. The 

 new iron-frame house, which is planted 

 to roses, was admired by all. This firm 

 does a fine business. It is located 

 near the Greenwood cemetery. Dinner 

 was secured at a cafe, after which 

 H. D. Rohrer's Sons were called upon. 

 In carnations, Enchantress Supreme and 



White Enchantress are grown, 



with 



promise of a heavy cut of blooms. Sev- 

 eral houses are planted to peas. An im- 

 mense crop of Primula malacoides, m 

 4-inch pots, found a good sale. Cinera- 

 rias and Primula obconica in 5-inch 

 pots in quantity are well grown. Sev- 

 eral houses of Grand Rapids lettuce, to 

 be followed by geraniums in 4-inch pots, 

 were noticed. Several houses of cycla- 

 mens were grown during the season just 

 passed and a fine lot of seedlings are to 

 be seen in 2V^-inch pots. 



The next call was made at the range 

 of W. B. Girvin. Carnations there 

 show that a good crop has been cut 

 throughout the preceding months. The 

 rose houses seem to be breaking well. 

 The new iron-frame house, which is 

 planted to roses, is possibly the finest 

 in Lancaster county. A new battery of 

 boilers has been installed and a model 

 heating plant is to be found here. At 

 Charles M. Weaver's range we found
