329 Main -Street, CINCINNATI, O. 



Canal Dover, O. — C. Betscher began 

 cutting peonies last week and will be 

 extremely busy for the next fortnight. 

 He reports the blooming season unusu- 

 ally favorable this year. 



Superior, Jfeb. — G. E. Bending, who 

 is proprietor of the Bending Floral Co., 

 reports business conditions excellent, 

 although the season is backward and 

 planting delayed. There was a splen- 

 did trade for Mothers' day and the 

 prospect for Memorial day is excellent. 

 Mr. Bending has a ridge and furrow 

 house, 50x100, eight feet to the gutter 

 and sixteen feet to the ridges, in which 

 carnations were in full crop for May 

 10. ^ 



Petoskey, Mich. — J. Scott Ward, who 

 is known as a gladiolus specialist, is 

 preparing to disseminate a new late- 

 flowering variety that he has appropri- 

 ately named Autumn Queen. The color 

 is creamy white with pinkish tint. The 

 flowers all face one way on the spike, 

 making it well adapted to cut flower 

 work, but the important point is that 

 it is highly resistant to frost and blooms 

 late in autumn, j^fter gladioli are pretty 

 well out of the 'uiilrket. »»
