FROM MISSOURI 



These gentlemen have "been shown" the great virtues of our SEEDLING 

 Silver Pink Snapdragon, and here is how they *' come back " at us : 



Sprinsfield. Mo.. May 8. 191 1. 

 Mr. O. S. Ramsburg, Somersworth. N. H. 



Dear Sir: We inclose our check for $5.00 for seven pkts. of seed of Silver Pink. 

 We are doing fine with it and have grown some splendid blossoms, which are a grand 

 color and great seller with us. This is our first trial, and we are pleased. 



Very truly, ' Raugh Bros. 



Every mail brings repeat orders. It is the ONE Snap to grow, and right now 

 is the time to sow seed for fall and early winter blossoms. Don't delay. Price of 

 seed, $1.00 per pkt.; 3 for $2.50 ; 7 for $5.00. Cash. 



Its color is beautiful— a clear, silvery, sea-shell pink. Is a strong, stocky 

 grower and the most productive variety in existence. 



PLANTS ALL SOLD. If any customer has a 

 surplus of good seedling plants, write ua.

The Market. 



The first part of the month business 

 was a little slow, but at present it is 

 brisk. Funeral work causes the biggest 

 demand for stock. Roses and carna- 

 tions are not extra good, owing to the 

 continued warm weather. For sixteen 

 days we have had no rain and all out- 

 door stock is in need of water. It is 

 the longest dry spell for May in seven- 

 teen years. Flowers will be scarce for 

 Memorial day, with the possible excep- 

 tion of peonies. Large quantities of 

 these are being cut and stored. The 

 planting-out season will soon be over 

 and then all florists will have it con- 

 siderably easier. 



Various Notes. 



C. L. Niednagel has his Beauties 

 growing nicely after their rest and will 

 begin cutting in four to six weeks. His 

 other roses are in good condition and 

 giving some good stock. 



Dr. A. J. Knapp is cutting a large 

 crop of peonies and shipping most of 

 them north. 



Mr. Kuebler, father of Theodore and 

 Otto, suffered an epileptic stroke, at De- 

 catur, Ark., recently, but is getting 

 along nicely again. E. L. F. 



Saginaw, Mich. — J. B. Qoetz Sons 

 have announced that they will hereafter 

 close their flower store all day Sunday. 

 All orders taken before 6 p. m. Satur- 

 day will be delivered that evening, but 

 delivery before Monday will not be 

 promised on orders taken after that 

 time.
