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, ol Baasett A; Washburn, says : "In three applications of spraying we destroyed all the 

 Thrips in a 300 foot Bride house.'* 



Mr. Baur say* : "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 your plants are clean." — Carnation Notes in the Florists* Review, May 25, 1905. 



"I feel I cannot recommend ihis nicotine extract (To-bak-Ine Liquid) too strongly. It fills a want that was felt for 

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

 rists' Review, May 18, 1905. 



Send for full directions of this method of spraying, cost 

 and much valuable information for progressive growers.

 with the surplus. The steamers, as usual, 

 pass out laden with floral love tokens and 

 between the heat and the increased mor- 

 tality caused by the heart breaking air of 

 the subway those who make funeral 

 pieces are kept busy. 



Various Notes. 



Croweanum is finding a new outlet at 

 J. K. Allen's, who handles a lot of this 

 splendid fern daily. 



William Duncan, treasurer of the Cut 

 Flower Exchange, is now manager and 

 Thos. Jackson, a florist of Lexington 

 avenue, has been appointed janitor. 



The auctions are on their last legs for 

 this season, A week or two more and the 

 melodious voices of the criers will be 

 alent. Both Cleary's and ElUott's have 



ui-^° excellent season and the general 

 public has been constantly and largely in 

 evidence. Elliott will have a big iale of 

 palms, etc., on Juno 27. 



N. Lecakes, the "green goods" and 

 water Illy expert, is back from Athens 

 with his bride. He thinks Mars Hill 

 cannot touch West Twenty-eighth street

 irom present outlook "Johnny" will be, 

 as usual, on deck from 3 a. m. to mid- 



night, as he has been during the past 

 thirty years or more. 



C. W. Ward has been in Chicago for a 

 week and will be in the west until the 

 end of June. 



Geo. Stumpp and family are spending 

 the summer in Germany, having left a 

 week ago for their usual stopping place 

 there. 



The trade manifests its sympathy 

 with 8. S. Butterfleld in the severe ill- 

 ness of his wife and learns with pleasure 

 of the hope of her ultimate recovery. 



John Scott, of Flatbush, has settled 

 dovra to suburban life in his new home, 

 close to his new greenhouses, and is a 

 busy man these days with his building 

 and shipping. 



On June 28 Miss Bella A. Young and 

 W. L. Jones, the florist of Nutley, N. J., 

 will be married. 



The Frank Bros., florists of Third 

 avenue, are away on their annual fishing 

 cruise. 



Siebrecht & Son had a big wedding at 

 Princeton last week and among the cut 

 flowers used were 1,500 of their own 

 growing of the popular Killarney rose. 

 Judging by the demand for the young 

 plants in the east there will be plenty of 

 this beautiful variety to go around an- 

 other year. This season the supply has 

 not been suflScient. 



All the retailers report a splendid sea- 

 son to date and those with branches at 

 Newport are already busy there. The 

 vfindow displays of late have been bril- 

 liant with peonies. 



Another retailer has hung out his 

 shingle on Broadway, close to the big 

 Hippodrome. He is Charles Grant, a 

 graduate of J. H. Small & Sons. There 

 is always room in New York. 



Treasurer Schenck reports very en- 

 couraging responses for the New York 

 Club's outing next week Wednesday. 

 Those who have not already written him 

 of their intention to go should telegraph 

 him immediately on reading this, that 

 perfect arrangements may be made for 

 the comfort of all, both on the boat and 

 at beautiful Glenwood, one of the pretti- 

 est resorts on the sound. The sail will be 

 a long one, the facilities for all kinds of 

 enjoyment perfect, and with a fine day 

 the attendance should be far in excess of 

 any holiday in the club's history. The 

 program provides for about thirty ath- 

 letic contests, some of them unique and 

 one mysterious. 



Interest is growing in the S. A. F. 

 convention. The attendance from New 

 York will be large. The bowling team 

 at Washington will be shy if more inter- 

 est is not taken in the Friday night prac- 

 tice. Very few were present last week. 

 Guttman and Manda make fine averages 

 and will surely be among the ofi&cial 

 team members. J. Austin Shaw. 



Grandville, Mich. — In the recent 

 flood the Stover Floral Co. lost all its 

 carnations in the field, some 5,000 plants, 

 in the back water from the Grand river. 



EocKFORD, III. — H. W. Buckbee will 

 rush the work on the new range of glass 

 announced in the Review two weeks ago. 

 Plans have been prepared. The ground 

 to be covered is 196x280. Garland gut- 

 ters are to be used. 



We are well pleased with the Review, 

 here is the proof, another dollar. — Habt-
