Window cards will be used freely. About 

 250,000 Red Cross stamps of pleasing 

 design and moderate cost will be dis- 

 tributed among those interested, to be 

 used on their stationery, while news- 

 paper notices on any subject pertaining 

 to horticulture will appear almost daily, 

 if possible, as the time for the show 

 approaches. It is intended to make the 

 program a feature, though this expense, 

 it is hoped, will be paid by the advertis- 

 ing it contains. These are a few of the 

 plans made to attract visitors to the 

 show. 



Next in point of interest is the solu- 

 tion of the heating problem of Conven- 

 tion hall, which, as is well known, is a 

 vast unheated building. Mr. Farenwald 

 has virtually closed a contract with F. 

 C. Bower, the vacuum expert, to heat 

 the hall for a moderate sum. The heat- 

 ing plant is to belong to Mr. Bower, 

 who simply agrees to erect and rent it 

 for the time required, thus giving him 

 an opportunity to demonstrate the

economic value of his system of heat- 

 ing by vacuum valves. The reduction 

 made by the city authorities in the 

 rental of Convention hall, on the repre- 

 sentation that the show would be of 

 benefit to the city, makes it possible to 

 heat the building, remove and after- 

 wards replace the chairs and do all other 

 necessary work, at a moderate price. 

 In fact, the total cost is estimated not 

 to exceed $3,000, which is less than one- 

 third of the rent paid for the Grand 

 Central Palace at New York, where the 

 last show was held. Another matter of 

 special interest is the opening - of an 

 office, probably in the Widener Arcade 



building, where the show committee will 

 have its headquarters, say from Novem- 

 ber to May. Here all necessary data 

 pertaining to the show will be collected 

 and all necessary letters will be sent 

 out. This will relieve the members of 

 the committees from the necessity of 

 doing show work in their offices and 

 will enable them to make their show 

 work more efficient. 



"While these facts were touched upon 

 briefly last week, they are of such im- 

 portance as to demand fuller comment. 

 With the knowledge that the commit- 

 tees are doing their level best, each one 

 of us will feel that he must do his part
