Hubam clover. Many commercial vege- 

 table growers never used any commer- 

 cial fertilizer at all. He advocated the 

 jdowing in of green crops, like clover 

 and rye, when about twelve inches 

 high, to get the maximum amount 

 of nitrogen and quickest decompo- 

 position. Acid phosphate he com- 

 mended as valuable to spread on 

 manure heaps at the rate of fifty 

 pounds per load of manure, to 

 help retain the ammonia. The lecturer 

 answered numerous questions and was 

 tendered an enthusiastic vote of thanks. 

 He invited the club to join in the field 

 day at the Lexington station in August, 

 which was heartily accepted. 



The Wholesale Flower Markets. 



Talks of consolidation and a new 

 wholesale flower market have been 

 much discussed in Boston wholesale 

 flower circles of late and it is refresh- 

 ing to note that all elements are grad- 

 ually coming together here. There was 

 a meeting preceded by a dinner at 

 Young's hotel, May 21, where stock- 

 holders of the Boston Flower Exchange 

 and Boston Cooperative Flower Market 

 to the number of seventy-five came to- 

 gether and discussed plans for consoli- 

 dation and the securing of a new cen- 

 tral wholesale flower market. 



William C. Stickel, chairman of the 

 directors of the Flower Exchange, pre- 

 sided and spoke of the object of the 

 meeting. He introduced "William H. 

 Elliott, chairman of the joint commit- 

 tee on sites for a new wholesale market. 

 He gave a resume of over thirty pos- 

 sible sites and blanks were issued to 

 the stockholders of seven of the most 

 desirable and accessible; prices on 

 these, including land and building, va- 

 ried from $250,000 to $510,000. Mem- 

 bers were asked to mark their first, 

 second and third choice of the seven 

 sites, which they proceeded to do and 

 the committee will consider the wishes 

 expressed in making a final choice. 



Slips were also issued to the stock- 

 holders, asking how much they were 

 prepared to subscribe towards the new 

 enterprise. Thomas Roland urged them 

 to be liberal, as this was a strictly high- 

 grade and safe investment. Fifty 

 blanks were signed and returned, show- 

 ing an average subscription of about 

 $1,000. No further business of impor- 

 tance was transacted, but other meet- 

 ings will be held soon. The meeting in 

 question was called on short notice, 

 and many important growers were not 



f resent. There is a general feeling that 

 h^re will be no trouble in financing the
