The Florists' Review 



JCNB 8. 1922 



INDIANAPOLIS, IND. 



The Market. 



Tlic iniirket has bci'ii slow, ytock has 

 been j)lentiful, but not in deiiiaiul. 

 Roses sell for $4 and up. Carnations 

 are priced at $3 to $') per hundred, but 

 larger quantities sell cheaper. Plenty 

 of garden stock is to be had. This 

 stock has been moving slowly. Good 

 del{)hiniuins are in demand. Bedding 

 stock has been a big item this spring. 

 Boxes, vases, beds, etc., are springing 

 up on all the porches and in the yards, 

 around windows, etc. 



Memorial Day. 



Memorial day business was poor, con- 

 sidering other years, due to the large 

 supply of outdoor stock. The market 

 was loaded with daisies, delphiniums, 

 peonies, hardy roses, lionej-suckles, 

 sweet Williams, etc. Many out-of-town 

 people were in the market and on the 

 streets selling flowers. 



Various Notes. 



John Kicman has a new dclix-erv car.

March 17 th 

 We use KAMMOHl>'8 SXiVO 

 SHOT on Currant Bushes in 

 the Spring before the leaves aro 

 started. We put it on around 

 the roots and have done It for 

 two years, and find that the 

 worms are killed before they 

 get on the bush. For potatoes 

 we put on BiMVik SHOT as soon 

 as the bugs come, and we have 

 good vines, plenty of tubers 

 and no bugs. It is the best 

 thing we have ever used. Per 

 Sow Boers in greenboaus It l8 sure deatli. We had a lot of them before usin^

Slug Shot for Sow Bugs 



It ia with great pleasure each week I read your valued paper, and I like to 

 give a helpii^ hand when I can. I do not wisli to «ay anythlnfr against the 

 nse of Fans green and sngar, or bran, or any otber material, for I know these 

 are all g-ood to kill bnffs, sncb as wood lice (sow bugn), etc. But I would like 

 to state, as I have done formerly, for tbe benefit of anyone bothered with sow 

 bugs that Z have tboroug'hly cleared my greenhouses of this pest by dusting 

 freely with WAMMOITP'S SIiTTO SHOT, spreading it well in the walks, under 

 the benches, along the side walls and between the plants, using' about 20 lbs. 

 to a 20 ft. X loo ft. house. This Slug' Shot will not injure Carnation plants. I 

 hope that this recital of my experience -will be of help to others in trouble 

 and especially recommend its nse as it is not dangerous to human life as is 

 Paris green.
