German and Japanese Irises. 



In the 5i VIEW for September 15 ap- 

 pears a query atout irises, Japanese and 

 German, ''oncc-aing which I should like 

 to give an ojtiuion. Japanese irises need 

 damp grouna and high feeding and are 

 not the best companions for German 

 irises, which sue*, rod better with drier 

 treatment. They flower magnificently in 

 California, even when baked up from 

 May till October. As to the host time 

 for moving them, Peter Barr once told 

 me that he divided and moved his di- 

 rectly after tlcwering :\r.\ I Vu.ve found 

 the practice very satiet:(.?tory here \n 

 British Columbia. 



Lilies, such as aura turn and speciosum, 

 like deep planting, eight to ten inr-ht^ 

 from the top of the bulb. This gives, 

 them a bettor opportunity to make Item 

 roots and keeps the bulbs and roots 

 away from the hot surface soil. Unless 

 the soil be of a sandy nature it is well 

 to surround the bulbs with sand, thus 

 affording drainage and protection from 

 the attacks of slugs.

CREDIT WHEN DUE. 



A wholesale cut flower dealer says 

 that it has come to his attention that 

 the average out of town customer ig 

 by no means slow to make complaint 

 whenever he is not satisfied with quality. 

 packing or promptness of a shipment 

 of stock, but that the same men are 

 usually very slow to express themselves 

 when they feel that they have been well 

 served; in fact, he says, it never seems 

 to occur thiat a few words of approval 

 might go much farther than a great 

 deal of blame in getting the kind of 

 goods the buyer wants. Not only do 

 a few words of appreciation serve as 

 an encouragement to greater efforts in 

 the future but they serve to give the 

 shipper a more definite idea of just what 

 character of goods are required to meet 

 the customer's needs.
