The Florists' Review 



NOTEMBRB 19. 1914. 



BALTIMORE. 



The Market. 



Business has shown a little improve- 

 ment, but prices still are low. There 

 was quite a good demand for the bet- 

 ter class of stock, such as Beauties, 

 gardenias, orchids and valley, and, while 

 the sal^s- were nothing unusual, the 

 spurt was quite encouraging. Mums of 

 course are still plentiful, small to me- 

 dium sizes being in most request. 

 Roses are plentiful and the demand 

 takes up "most of them, but prices are 

 not up to the usual average. There 

 sue plenty of carnations of fairly good 

 quality, but most of them find their 

 way to the street boys. Violets, both 

 single and double, are coming in bet- 

 ter and are selling fairly well. Lilies 

 are not in large supply, but there is 

 no demand to speak of and quantities 

 find their outlet in the rubbish box. 



Vaxious Notes. 



The Baltimore Cut Flower Co. has 

 handled a fine lot of single-stem Wm. 

 Turner mums in 6-inch pots. 



T. J. Michell, of Philadelphia, was in 

 town last week. 



J. C. Bartell says business is pick- 

 ing up. 



Chas. Siegwart has some of the finest 

 Wm. Turner mums seen here this 

 season. 



Chas. J. Bolgiano, of J. Bolgiano & 

 Son, was operated on for appendicitis 

 at the Union Protestant infirmary last 

 week and at present is getting along 

 as well as can be expected. ■ ■ - 



E. C. Milburn is shipping some good 

 single violets to the Pennock - Mee- 

 han Co. 



L. H. Klein, of Towson, is cutting 

 some good Appleton mums. 



H. J. Qufck has a fine collection of 

 ppmpoh'mums in over 100 different va- 

 rieties and he thinks so well of this 

 type he is dropping the other varieties 

 entirely. 



The Leo Niessen Co. reports a ready 

 sale for good Beauties in spite of the 

 large supply of mums. 



The annual Maryland week exhibi- 

 tion opened at Fifth Regiment Armory 

 November 17, with an address by Presi- 

 dent Graham. The exhibition of flow- 

 ers 8^d fruits surpassed anything for- 

 merly shown. A full account of the 

 prize winners and exhibits will appear 

 in the next issue. 



Jesse King, of Mt. Airy, is sending 

 in some good Yellow Eaton mums.

Light is Life to growing plants 



But under Sunlight 

 Double Glass Sash they 

 are never darkened by 

 mats or shutters. 



Consider this 



The old style single layer sash have 

 but a single layer of glass which ad- 

 mits the sun, but cannot exclude the 

 cold or retain the heat unless covered 

 with mats and shutters. These extra 

 covers cost twice as much as an extra 

 layer of glass and they must be put on 

 and off daily. It takes two men or a 

 man and wife to lift the soggy mats 

 and heavy shutters. 



This is pure waste of labor and ex- 

 pense as well as light. 



Now consider that 



the Sunlight Double Glass Sash 

 have ttuo layers of glass enclosing an 

 air space ^ inches thick, through 

 which the sun's fays pass, but not the 

 cold from without q^ the stored 

 watmth from within. 



Put the Sash on your hot-bed or 

 cold frame, and it is complete. All 

 that remains to do is to prop up the 

 sash on bright or warm days. A 

 child can'do this. 



Try a bit of winter gardtning 





small inexpensive greenhouse made of 

 Sunlight Double Glass Sash 



Which would you rather have? 



The Sunlight Double Glass Sash of course. It will pay you to investigate these 



sash for you are losing money every day|you are without them.

 helpful booklet on the use of cold frames aud small greenhouses.
