NOVKMBER 26, 1914. 



for debt or nonpayment of bill. Neither 

 can the property be held for the debt, 

 80 that the dealer is helpless if pay- 

 ment is refused for such stock. A com- 

 mittee was authorized to try to remedy 

 this trouble through the legislature at 

 its next session. 



Various Notes. 



Clarke Bros, have bad excellent sue 

 cess with bouvardia. 



Several growers and supply men 

 would like to know the whereabouts of 

 a Mr. Davis, who had a flower store in 

 the Hardwood building and who left 

 town just after Christmas last year. 



Max Smith is showing the first Eo- 

 man hyacinths, sweet peas and cut 

 pansy blooms. 



Mrs. Theo. Weddell is reported dan- 

 gerously ill. Mr. Weddell is operating 

 under lease the Martin Winch green- 

 houses at Gresham and has been bring- 

 ing in some excellent Chadwick and 

 Eaton mums and Herald carnations. 



Eahn & Herbert Co. has a bench of 

 ericas ready and has begun cutting For- 

 mosa lilies. 



The Sunuyside Greenhouse has a 

 bench of smilax ready to cut. 



Some fine orchids are being shown by 

 Martin & Forbes Co. S. W. W. 



FEBTILIZEB FOB FLUMOSUS. 



Will you kindly let me know what 

 kind of fertilizer is the best for Aspara- 

 gus plumosus and when is the best time 

 to apply iti Also please tell me what 

 is the best fertilizer for sweet peas. 



F. A. M. 



Good stable manure, preferably a mix- 

 ture of horse and cow manure, is the 

 most satisfactory fertilizer for Aspara- 

 gus plumosus, and a liberal quantity of 

 this manure should be incorporated in 

 the soil before planting. After the 

 plants are established, two or three top- 

 dressings of manure may be given at 

 intervals during the season as the crop 

 requires it. 



The same fertilizer is satisfactory for 

 sweet peas, and the crop will be im- 

 proved by an occasional dressing of 

 sheep manure after the sweet peas begin 

 to flower. W. II. T. 



FEEENNIALS FOR CUTTING. 



I am going to start a retail place 

 and want to plant about one acre for 

 cut flowers for funeral work and for 

 sale in the market when flowers are 

 scarce in the greenhouse, from May 

 until frost in the fall. I should like 

 to know what are the best varieties for 

 this purpose and when to plant them. 

 The soil is a clay loam with a sandy 

 subsoil. The location is southern Ohio. 



E. H. 



Hardy perennials, as a general rule, 

 do much better if planted in the fall 

 than in the spring. Of course there 

 are a few exceptions. You will find 

 that when you can plant in October 

 or even early November, you will get 

 far better results than by waiting 

 until spring. If you are planting as 

 much as an acre it would pay you to 

 raise many of the varieties from seed. 

 If these are started under glass in 

 February, many would bloom the first 

 year and all would do so the following 

 year. 



For spring and early summer these 

 varieties are desirable: Doronicum 

 Clusii, Myosotis sylvatica; digitalis, or
