HOUSE FOR GREENS. 



■'' Does Asparagus, plumosus require the 

 full Bun to do its best? I Avant to builtl 

 a house for asparagus and smilax and 

 all the place I have is on the north side 

 of a building, where it would have the 

 «uu only about half the day. 



' W. E. n. 



Asparagus plumosus requires plenty 

 ■of light, though not full exposure to the 

 «ua during the summer months, it being 

 necessary to apply a light shading to 

 the glass in the early summer and to 

 ■continue this until about October 1 in 

 an ordinary season. It is probable that 

 ^ou may grow smilax and asparagus 

 fairly well in a north house, though it 

 "would not be as much under control 

 -during the winter season as tjiough it 

 "were planted in a bouse with a more 

 favorable exposure. A night tempera- 

 ture of 65 . degrees is the best for the 

 asparagus, but the smilax will do well 

 in a slightly lower temperature.

KANSAS CITY, 



Trade no better than last week. The 

 writer dropped down to Independence, 

 Mo., last Thursday afternoon. Florists 

 and their places all looked very prosper- 

 ous. Took a look through the Walnut 

 Hill greenhouses and met the proprietor, 

 "E. G. Bunyar, who is more than pleased 

 "with this spring's business. He says he 

 lias done more this year than ever. He 

 is not going to do any building, only 

 «ome repairing. 



Miss M. Dalley, one of our lady flor- 

 ists, left last Saturday and sailed the 

 following Wednesday for Europe, to be 

 ■gone three months on a pleasure trip to 

 lier old home in England. 



Our little florist, Charlie Laundy, of 

 "Westport, took unto himself a wife last 

 "Wednesday, and we all wish him hap- 

 piness. 



Mrs. Lydia Augar, the lady florist, of 

 Port Wayne, Ind., stopped off here last 

 "Wednesday on her way to Coffeyville, 

 Kan. L. M. S. 



Sprinqfieu), III. — A. C. Brown will 

 abandon the old site of his greenhouses, 

 platting the property into building lots. 



Stratham, N. H. — A. IT. Craig & 

 "Son will increase their glass area this 

 year about 5,000 square feet. They in- 

 tend to do something in the wholesale 

 pldfit line and also to handle nursery 

 «tork.
