NORTHERN TEXAS. 



This week does not bring a very favor- 

 able report from some parts of this 

 section; continued rains have damaged 

 crops greatly. Cotton, the staple crop, 

 is suffering fj-om repeated rains, until 

 some predict almost a total loss. In 

 a trip through Oklahoma, I saw the 

 rivers out of their banks and almost 

 completely covering both corn and cot- 

 ton, and the fear is that the crops will 

 rot before the water subsides. 



In our line, stock is looking well. Car- 

 nations are in first-class shape on high 

 ground, where the water can drain; 

 but in the low-lands they are not look- 

 ing so well, as the hot sun coming after 

 a rain almost cooks them. Boses in 

 the field are doing well, and will com- 

 mence soon to increase their blooming. 

 Vincas, snapdragons, and that class of 

 plants are in full bloom and are getting 

 better every day. Funeral work is near- 

 ly all that is doing just now. All 

 the places I have visited show marked 

 improvement in cleaning up, and the 

 progressive man has everything in readi- 

 ness for the planting season. 



The Texas Nursery Co. has almost 

 completed its new range, and it adds 

 quite a bit to the appearance of the 

 place. 



H. O. Hannah and wife, of Sherman, 

 who have been on their vacation at Sul- 

 phur, Okla., have returned to their home 

 looking in fine health for the season's 

 work. Narcissus. 



SPRINGFIELD, OHIO. 



As a forerunner of the Dayton con- 

 vention, numerous delegations from dis- 

 tant eastern and southern points have 

 arrived in Springfield a day in advance 

 (Monday) and are visiting the extensive 

 greenhouses of the Good & Keese Co., 

 the McGregor Bros. Co. and other plant- 

 growing establishnients. This affords to 

 members of the S. A. F. an opportunity 

 of seeing the sources of supply from 

 which they have drawn for many years 

 past and more fully realizing the im- 

 portauce of this market in the shipment 

 of plants. 



The Leedle Floral Co. is erecting two 

 new houses :10xl52 feet and a lean-to 

 lOxlOJj feet. The space gained will be 

 devoted to the housing of rose plants.

El Paso, III.— The El Paso Carna- 

 tion Co. has just completed a new house 

 .SOxlOO, and has most of it planted. 

 The range is steam heated, from two 

 forty hor.se-power boilers. The trans- 

 jrortation facilities are excellent at this 

 firm's place; two railroads unload sup- 

 plies at its doors. C. L. W. Snyder, 

 the manager, says they expect to build 

 two more houses next year, for lettuce 

 and other vegetables. Onion culture will 

 he a specialty.
