for he is a universal favorite— wish 

 him a speedy recovery. During his 

 illness the interests of the Eainier 

 Floral Co. have been carefully attended 

 to by his brother. 



Charles Gilmer, who has been fore- 

 man at A. B. Matthiesen's pjace for 

 the last few years, has gone on a visit 

 to his old home in Alabama. It is 

 •expected that his return will not be 

 long deferred, as few people can recon- 

 cile themselves to living long away 

 from this salubrious district after they 

 have once made this their abode. 



A few months ago we recorded the 

 fact that Miss Fowler, of the Burdett 

 Co., was an author of note; now we 

 have to record that she is a poet as 

 well as a writer of prose. At a concert 

 here last week a song of her composi- 

 tion was sung and she has others that 

 have been set to music. There is noth- 

 ing more conducive to the divine afflatus 

 than the environment of flowers and 

 who knows but that the muse is lying 

 dormant in most of our floriculturists t 



Last week Bedelsheimers the Cloth- 

 iers celebrated their twenty-fifth anni- 

 versary here and Bosaia Bros, had an 

 opportunity to display their artistic 

 talents in the lavish decorations.

SCILLA PERUVIANA. 



"What is. the proper treatment, for 

 Scilla Peruviana? Should the crowns be 

 covered with soil or not, and what is 

 the proper temperature for themt I 

 have several hundreds of these, but have 

 had no experience with them. Are they 

 hardy here, in western Wisconsin f 



J. M. 



*" This scilla would not prove hardy in 

 your state. As the bulbs are large, pots 

 of a fair size are necessary to hold in- 

 dividual bulbs. Give them about the 

 same compost as would suit ordinary 

 Dutch bulbs, such as tulips and narcissi. 

 Just cover the bulbs with soil and give 

 them ordinary greenhouse culture. They 

 naturally bloom outdoors in May and 

 June in the warmer states, but under 

 pot culture may be had earlier. They 

 seldom produce flowers two years in suc- 

 cession from the same bulbs. From the 

 name it would be imagined that S. Pe- 

 ruviana, commonly called the hyacinth 

 Of Peru, is a Peruvian plant, but, as a 

 matter of fact, it is not found in Peru
