The Florists^ Review 



June 1. 1922 



Peterson Nursery, Chicago, has am- 

 bitious advertising plans, and to insure 

 their successful execution, they have been 

 placed in the hands of Frank B. White, 

 Chicago, whose agricultural advertisers' 

 service is well known in the trade. The 

 Peterson peonies and irises will be adver- 

 tised in magazines and by direct mail, a 

 catalogue in colors being in preparation. 



John Watson, who terminated his 

 service as executive secretary of the Amer- 

 ican Association of Nurserymen just 

 about twelve months ago, is now secretary 

 of the Du Bois Press, Rochester, N. Y., 

 printing department. The high-quality 

 color work of the Du Bois Press and Mr. 

 Watson's thorough knowledge of nursery- 

 men's advertising will form a combina- 

 tion of much value to members of the 

 trade.
