SPRAYING 



If all growers could realize that by this method and the use of 



To-Bak-lne Liquid 



they can absolutely destroy and prevent Thrips, don't 



you think they would always have some on hand ? 



To-Bak-lne Liquid, a 45 Per Cent 



Solution of Pure Nicotine 



WILL POSITIVELY DO THE WORK. 



Mr. Washburn, of Basaett & Washburn, says: "In three applications of spraying we destroyed all the 

 Thrips in a 300-foot Bride house." 



Mr. Baur says: "Send for a can of To-Bak-lne Liquid and apply it according to directions every evening for a 

 week and then three times weekly until jjour plants are clean. ' — Carnation Notes in the Florists' Review, May 25, 1905. 



"I feel I cannot recommend this nicotine extract (To-Bak-lne Liauid) too strongly. It fills a want that was felt for 

 years, for something that would keep down Thrips effectively and in fact all insect pests." — Carnation Notes in the Flo- 

 rists' Review, May 18, 1905.

and much valuable information for progressive growers.

Miss Mollie Le Moult, daughter of 

 Adolph Le Moult, the veteran florist 

 of the Bowery, and Joseph Fenrich, the 

 wholesale florist, will be married at 

 the home of the bride in Tremont, on 

 Thursday, June 8, at noon, under a 

 natural bower of roses in the spacious 

 gardens of her father. The home dec- 

 orations will be oak leaves and daisies. 

 Quite a romance characterizes the 

 union of these young people. They 

 ■will make their honeymoon trip to Ni- 

 agara and down the St. Lawrence to 

 Montreal, when the rush of the peony 

 season is over. The wedding day and 

 the bride's birthday arrive at the same 

 time. Congratulations are many.

The Market 



A very satisfactory amount of busi- 

 ness has been done the past week in all 

 the stores. Several large funerals and 

 some wedding decorations have taken up 

 the surplus stock and there is still a 

 good, healthy demand for blooms in spite 

 of the fact that outdoor flowers are 

 coming in. Prices have fallen consider- 

 ably the past week and there is very lit- 

 tle good stock on the market. Many or- 

 ders for wedding decorations are being 

 booked, being distributed pretty well, 

 and call for some good material. 



Various Notes. 



It is with feelings of profound sorrow 

 that we must record the sudden death of 

 one of our oldest florists, Edward Bun- 

 yar, of Bosedale. Mr. Bunyar was born 

 in England, fifty-eight years ago and 

 came here a young man, working at dif- 

 ferent places until eighteen years ago, 

 when he purchased the property where 

 he died. Mr. BuYiyar left a widow and 

 four sons, two of whom are in business, 

 Edward, Jr., in Independence, Mo., and 

 Kobert, in Independence, Kan. 



A large number of the growers are 

 getting interested in the flower show and 

 some are taking unusual pains to weed 

 out poor stuff. 



J. Smith, of Westport, reports very 

 good business in plant trade this spring 

 and contemplates building two more 

 houses, which he intends to use for grow- 

 ing carnations. 



Outdoor sweet peas are coming in and 

 prices are taking a drop. The demand 

 for old-fashioned flowers is becoming 



greater and it is only a question of time 

 when the florists must look for other 

 material than what is grown at the pres- 

 ent time. 



R. S. Brown & Son report a phenome- 

 nal business the past spring and con- 

 template remodeling their place this sum- 

 mer. 



The Kansas City Floral Co. is finish- 

 ing up a lease upon one of the most 

 prominent corners here, Tenth and Grand 

 avenue, where it intends to open the 

 finest florists* establishment west of 

 Chicago by September 1. This firm has 

 met with much success since entering the 

 business, under the supervision of C. A. 

 Schaeffer. 



Jacob Tobler reports everything of a 

 salable nature sold this spring and in- 

 tends to build this summer to meet the 

 requirements of his increasing business. 



A. Blankenfeld, out on Main street, 

 has done some fine business this spring, 

 as his place has a vacant look and it wfll 

 take some time to make it look as full 

 as it did early in the season. 



Ed. Humfeld is cleaning up, having 

 sold out almost entirely and was forced 

 to buy a great deal in order to meet the 

 demands of his customers. 



Narcissus. 



Amherst, Mass. — The Massachusetts ' 

 Agricultural College is to have a new 

 building for horticulture. Plans have 

 already been drawn. 



The Review will send Montgomery's

 of 25c,
