SUNDAY CLOSINa. 



One by one the states are passing 

 Sunday closing laws. While in most 

 cases these are not so strict as to pre- 

 vent florists from delivering work on 

 the Sabbath, they afford an excellent 

 pretext for remaining tight shut on 

 Sunday. And what can be done in 

 compliance with the law can be done 

 in accordance with one's own inclina- 

 tion. All florists who really wish to 

 do so can keep closed on Sunday with- 

 out the cooperation of the law or their 

 competitors. 



A florist in New York is sending out 

 this notice: 



"In compliance with the require- 

 ments of the labor law (Chap. 36, laws 

 of 1909 as amended), hereafter no or-

ders for cut flowers or plants will be

 flowers intended for Sunday's use will 

 be delivered Saturday afternoon late, 

 extra precaution being taken in pack- 

 ing same in order that they may keep 

 fresh, if the box is placed in a cool 

 room unopened until wanted. Always 

 clip the stems of cut flowers before 

 placing them in vases and give them 

 plenty of fresh water." 



PEACHES X7NDEB GLASS. 



I enclose some twigs of peach trees 

 grown under glass. They have been 

 growing for about ten years iind have 

 always borne heavy crops. Last sea- 

 son they had a touch of the same 

 trouble, but seemed to recover and 

 looked perfectly healthy on starting 

 their growth this season. However, 

 many of the branches failed to grow

 I should like to get your opinion on 

 these, as my treatment may be at 

 fault. We are on low land here and 

 get a great deal of fog from the river.

The wood on the peach trees did not 

 appear to have been well ripened. Are 

 you sure the trees have good drainage 

 and that there is no likelihood of their 

 having wet feett Or have you sprayed 

 with the lime-sulphur solution or one 

 of the soluble oil sprays while the 

 trees were dormant! This spraying 

 often does considerable harm to peach 

 trees, which are less tough than apple 

 or pear trees. Avoid spraying with 

 insecticides, also, while the foliage is 

 young and quite tender. I could not 

 find any signs of San Jose scale on 

 the wood sent. If this pest attacks 

 your peach trees, it will soon kill them 

 unless hydrocyanic acid gas is used.

 yet will come off when we so wish,

J. W. D. C— la. 



The best shading I have used con- 

 sists of whiting and turpentine, but 

 since it is rather expensive and should 

 be applied with a brush, it is not de- 

 sirable for large ranges. It is excel- 

 lent, however, for show rooms and 

 small conservatories. 



A much cheaper and quite satisfac- 

 tory shading may be made by using 

 whiting and hydrated lime, with 

 skimmed milk. If a shading for the 

 entire season is desired, the proportion 

 of lime should exceed that of the 

 whiting, but about equal weights will 

 give good results. For a thin wash, 

 equal parts of water and skimmed milk 

 may be used. T.
