The Weekly Rorists' Review^ 



NOVEMBGB 3, 1004. 



URELY this cannot be true ; well^ we have over 100 s:rowen who have written us, a largfe majority 

 wf thout request, their opinions ; we publish a few ol these letters in the columns of this paper; see 

 on pages U95-96-99- J208- U.whal they say about the FUMIGATING KIND TOBACCO 

 POWDER. All beg^an with a five-pound trial bag; at our expense, which gave them an opportunity 

 without cost to prove its GOODNESS and our assertion that it was the most effective, cleanest and 

 quickest, as well as cheapest ((0 cents per 100-foot house) article to fumigate with, and that all kinds of 

 aphis can be killed in one night. Let us send you a five-pound trial bag by express, it will cost you 

 nothing but the express charges on it, and be convinced that what your brother growers say of it is 

 true. Our booklet tells of it; we mail it on request* .

nXTING OLD TUBES. 



Please tell me the best way to fit 

 3-inch boiler tubes that are too thin to 

 be threaded. They are, of course, to 

 be used for hot water. O. N. 



It has never been my good fortune 

 to see a house piped with east oflf boiler 

 tubes, and I can only suggest a pos- 

 sible solution to this problem, I do 

 not say this will prove satisfactory, 

 but it is worthy of a trial. Secure a 

 long sleeve, or section of pipe that will 

 allow at least three-eighths of an inch 

 of space all around between the out- 

 side of the flue and the inside of the 

 sleeve. If there are some rough pro- 

 jections on the ends of the flues, batter 

 them only sufficiently to allow passing 

 the flue inside the sleeve. After the 

 ends of two flues have been adjusted 

 equidistant in the sleeve, which should 

 be about ten or twelve inches long, 

 force a roll of hemp packing into the 

 sleeve from each end to prevent the 

 cement which is to be used to make the 

 joint from finding its way to the in- 

 terior of the flue. After this prelimi- 

 nary calking is completed, stuff the 

 sleeve full of a cement made as fol- 

 lows: Powdered clay six pounds, iron 

 filings one pound, made into a thick 

 paste with linseed oil. Portland cement 

 one part, sand two parts, has also been 

 successfully used in such joints. It is 

 necessary that these joints become well 

 set before water or heat is brought in 

 contact with them. L. C. C. 



NEV HAVEN, CONN. 



Qiarles Munro, formerly at 938 Chapel 

 street, is remodeling the store at 974, 

 formerly occupied by the Robert Veitch 

 Co., who have retired from business. 

 They were the oldest florists in New 

 Haven. A large show house is being 

 added to the store, which will be made 

 one of the most complete and up-to-date 

 establishments in the state. Mr.Munro 

 has always conducted a first-class place 

 and has been steadily successful. 



Elmira, N. Y. — Thomas J. Leyden 

 has opened a very handsome flower store 

 at 117 West Water street. John K. 

 Phesay, formerly with Grove P, Raw- 

 son and later at Jamestown with the 

 Lake View Rose Gardens, is the cut 

 flower worker. The stock of plants came 

 from the Lake View Rose Gardens, and 

 the United States Cut Flower Co. will 

 provide the daily supplies of cut stock.
