The Rorists' Review 



OCTOBEB 9, 1913. 



CARNATION GLORIA 



If you are looking for a good, lively, shell-pink, free- 

 blooming variety, you will find GLORIA hard Jo^beat. 



Its growth is remarkably strong, making a quantity of flowering shoots rather 

 than wonderful length of stems. It has made 24 blooms to the plant. The bloom 

 is fair sized and the calyx good. It's bound to be in great demahd.

The court then reviewed the evidence 

 as to C. M. Stark's holdings and the 

 withdrawal of W. P. Stark from par- 

 ticipation in the affairs of the com- 

 pany, and said: "I can find nothing 

 to sustain the allegation of fraud, and 

 I can not find anything of sufficient 

 importance for a court to hold that by 

 reason of the conduct of E. W. Stark 

 a receiver should be appointed; 

 but, there remains the allegation of 

 incompetency and mismanagement. 



"Taking up the report of Mr, Wills, 

 who was an expert accountant em- 

 ployed by W, P. Stark to examine the 

 company's affairs, it does not seem to 

 me that these allegations are supported 

 by the evidence. For, according to the 

 report of Mr. Wills, this company made 

 during the year ending at the June 

 meeting, 1913, at a time when E. W. 

 Stark was in control, profits for the 

 year of $20,000 in excess of the average 

 of the former five years when W. P. 

 Stark was in control as manager." 



Discussing the results that would be 

 likely to follow granting the petition, 

 the court said: 



"The effect of a receivership in a 

 case of this sort is likely to be serious. 

 If the suggestion of this petition can 

 iro taken to mean that no one can con- 

 duct the management of this corpor- 

 ation except a skillful and unusual 

 aurseryman, it would be difficult for 

 the court to appoint a receiver. If 

 E. W. Stark, who has grown up in the 

 business, who has practically from his 

 boyhood known nothing else, is not able 

 to manage a corporation of this sort, 

 it would be a practical impossibility 

 for the court to find a man of the 

 necessary ability and experience. It 

 might be suggested that W. P. Stark 

 £ould be appointed in that connection, 

 but W. P. Stark is actively interested 

 in another nursery. And it seems to 

 me that the appointment of a receiver 

 in a case of this sort might result 

 finally in the dissolution of the cor- 

 povtkion. I do not see what other 

 result could be expected. It seems to 

 me that it might result in a disastrous 

 sale that would result in a sacrifice 

 of the interests of the owners of the 

 stock, who might not be in a position to 

 protect themselves. 



"Taking the case as a whole, I do 

 not find that it is one in which the 

 couI<HWO^gibtf) justified in assuming 

 control of Tnis corporation through a 

 receivership, and the pxayer-pf tltf- pe- 

 tition wiU be denied. '^'^ ^^ ^m,^
