CATALOaUES BECEIVED. 



Morehead Manufacturing' Co., Detroit, Mich. — 

 •'Morehead Baclj to Boiler System of Steam 

 Drainage and Boiler Feeding," a well printed 64- 

 page book, explaining the construction and opera- 

 tion of the different styles of Morehead tilting 

 steam traps, designated as return, non-return, 

 vacuum and condenser traps. By means of de- 

 scriptions and illustrations, a clear idea is given 

 as to the use of the devices under various condi- 

 tions. At the end of the book is some useful in- 

 formation in tabulated form. 



Everglade Nursery Co., Fort Myers, Fla. — A 

 catalogue of special southern-grown stock, such as 

 crotons, palms, other foliage and decorative 

 plants, flowering plants, eucalypti and other 

 trees, tropical frcits, vines, bulbous plants, ferns, 

 etc. ; sixteen pages, Illustrated. 



Chrit. Reuter, New Orleans, La. — An illustrated 

 catalogue of vegetable and farm seeds, straw- 

 berry plants, roses, insecticides, sprayers, seeders 

 and other implements; forty-two pages and cover. 

 Onions, lettuce and cabbage are treated as spe- 

 cialties, but great prominence is also given to 

 oats and to such forage crops as alfalfa, clover, 

 Sudan grass, etc. 



Steele's Pansy Gardens, Portland, Ore. — An 

 illustrated folder containing an announcement of a 

 special reduction in the prices of Mastodon pan- 

 sies. Both Beeds and seedlings are included in 

 the "cut-price offer." 



R, H. B«th, Ltd., Wisbech, England— "Bath's 

 Special Offer of Bulbs, to the Trade Only," an il- 

 lustrated catalogue of daffodils, tulips and chion- 

 odoxas. By far the greatest prominence is given 

 to daffodils, among which are listed half a dozen 

 novelties "now offered to the trade," it is said, 

 "for the first time." 



Ant. C. Zvolanek, Lompoc, Gal. — List of winter- 

 flowering orchid sweet peas and improved out- 

 door varieties. Besides the well-tried commercial 

 sorts, about a dozen of the newer kinds are in- 

 cluded, with this word of caution: "Th«J seed crop 

 of some of the novelties may be a failure; when 

 ordering, state if you want them substituted with 

 others in case of failure." In the same connection 

 the booklet states: "We have probably many 

 more novelties to offer, of which we will send a 

 special list in Septeml>er, providing the crop turns 

 out well." 



Samuel McOredy Ic Son, Portadown, Ireland — A 

 12-page list of new roses disseminated by this firm 

 and by other growers, European and American. 

 Only three new McGreedy roses are announced for 

 1915, but these are listed as "the three greatest 

 novelties of the century." An attached leaflet 

 contains a statement of the discounts to the trade. 



Oronogo Flower Gardens, Carthage, Mo. — 

 "Flowers that Grow for Everybody," a list of tu- 

 lips, narcissi, German Irises, peonies and mis- 

 cellaneous plants. Enclosed, also, is a supple- 

 mentary or "special early-order" list of narcissi 

 and tulips.
