The Weekly Florists' Review* 



JUNB 1. 1006. 



BALTIMORE, MD. 



The Market 



The wholesale market has experienced 

 the worst glut iu years this week. Every- 

 thing is coming in so plentifully, owing 

 no doubt to the ideal spring weather, and 

 quality has kept up well, but prices would 

 not look well in print. The retailers say 

 they never saw business so slow so early 

 before the anticipated dull season. 

 Funeral work lias been the only standby. 

 There were thousands of roses and car- 

 nations on the street this week that could 

 be bought as low as 5 and 10 cents per 

 dozen and the fakir had to hustle to move 

 them at that. 



Aus^t Entertainment. 

 A smoker and a good time at the club 

 brought a very large attendance at the 

 last meeting. It was decided that the 

 Gardeners' Club would entertain the 

 members of the Society of American Flo- 

 rists who will visit our city during the 

 convention in Washington. No definite 

 plans have as yet been decided on but it 

 is understood that the entertainment is 

 to consist of a trip down the Chesapeake 

 bay and probably a drive through the 

 former burnt district of Baltimore and 

 also through some of our parks. 



A. F. 



FERTILIZER. 



It is hard for me to get cow manure 

 but I can get plenty where the hogs have 

 been bedded. It is about four-fifths oak 

 leaves. Is this good for pot plants, roses 

 and carnations? If so, in what propor- 

 tions would you add it to good rich soil? 

 Would bone meal be needed in addition? 



W. A. L. 



"We have never used hog manure in 

 this country unless it came from the 

 cattle yard in a mixture and we were 

 not aware of it, but we do know that 

 in England it was valued as much as any 

 and largely used. In the condition you 

 describe we think it could be safely 

 used with the soil at one to six, well 

 mixed through the soil and will suit 

 roses and carnations and our ordinary 

 greenhouse plants. The quantity of 

 bone meal will depend on how much ani- 

 mal manure you are using. If it is nat- 

 urally good soil with the ordinary quan- 

 tity of animal manure, one part to five 

 or six, then you could add one pound of 

 bone meal to one bushel of soil.
