The Florists' Review

'There's a lot said about the 

 weather, but there's never 



anything done about it." 



—Kipling. 



But the wide-awake florist need 

 not care what the condition of 

 the weather outdoors if the 

 "weather" in the greenhouse is 

 0. K. And it's sure to be 

 right when the heating system is 

 hooked up to the 



Solehead

Then the even temperature so 

 necessary for the tender, young 

 growing things is certain. You 

 are certain, too. of perfectly 

 drained steam lines and end to 

 all condensation troubles. As a 

 saver of time, fuel and labor there 

 is nothing to eaual the Morehead.

grounds of the Portchester hospital. A 

 tent was erected directly over a fine 

 pool of water containing a pair of foun- 

 tains, which are a permanent feature 

 of the grounds. This formed a fine set- 

 ting for the exhibition. The finest of 

 roses and sweet peas by the thousands 

 were in evidence, as well as flowers from 

 hardy shrubs, perennials and herbaceous 

 plants. A special feature was the table 

 decorations, showing fine examples of 

 the gardener's knowledge of decorative 

 art. There were six tables and each 

 could be considered an artistic success. 

 A dainty conception of pink and white 

 sweet peas in combination with adian- 

 tum won the first prize, and was ar- 

 ranged by Joseph Lovie, of Mamaro- 

 neck, N. Y. The second prize was won 

 by IVed Lagerstam, of Greenwich, N. Y., 

 with a rambler rose arrangement. The 

 third prize was carried off by James 

 Linanc, of Eye, N. Y., with a well ar- 

 ranged decoratioa of Deutzia candidis- 



" RICHARDSON " 

 GREENHOUSE BOILERS 



Were first put on the market many years ago. They 

 were quickly recognized as possessing special ad24;)ta- 

 bility to greenhouse requirements and have been sold 

 to florists in steadily increasing numbers as the green- 

 house industry has expanded. 



A boiler must be a good boiler— and made by a strong, depend- 

 able manufacturer— to have withstood the stress of competition 

 for so many years. 



The "Richardson" line has developed with the needs 

 of the trade. The "Richardson" now is made in sixty 

 sizes, round, end feed, side feed — all sectional — for hot 

 water and steam. They are low priced, but, better yet, 

 they are fuel savers.
