THE TRAVELING FLORIST. 



There are those among florists located 

 in small cities, with other neighboring 

 towns whefe there are no greenhouses, 

 who find it an exceptionally good source 

 of business to travel about with stocks 

 of spring plants, spending a day or two 

 in each town and advertising their pres- 

 ence in advance. Where there is a week- 

 ly newspaper in the town it is desirable 

 to publish a small advertisement giving 

 the temporary location, the dates of sale 

 and mentioning some items of stock and 

 prices. Where tliere is no newspaper to 

 be used it is worth while to send a good 

 boy tlirce or four days in advance to dis- 

 tribute handbills. Then take a wagon- 

 load of plants, or more if experience 

 shows it to be desirable, and a good busi- 

 ness can be done at this season. More- 

 over, every sale made serves to adver- 

 tise the regular business at its perma- 

 nent location and those florists who each 

 year visit a number of the surrounding 

 towns are the ones who have a regular 

 mail or telephone trade from those towns. 

 It is worth while working up. 



A PERMANENT PLACE. 



The Auburn State Prison, Auburn, N. 

 Y., lias a fine greenhouse. It is in charge 

 of a BuflTalo life prisoner, Fritz Katoll, 

 who was a professional florjst before 

 he went there, and is now a model pris- 

 oner and trusty. The grounds are fine 

 and the warden's table and the hospital 

 are kept well supplied with flowers. 



I GET much pleasure and profit out of 

 the Eeview every week. — Fred Hatch, 

 Scranton, Pa.
