Homestead, Pa. — Bryce E. Blackley, 

 •who for a time conducted the store estab- 

 lished here by L. I. Neff, is now located 

 at Battle Mountain, Nev. 



De Kalb, III. — J. L. Johnson has pur- 

 chased the Ellwood greenhouses, about 

 (5,000 feet of glass, and will move them 

 out on his place east of town. He has 

 twenty acres of land convenient to the 

 city and expects to grow more or less 

 nursery stock in connection with his 

 flower business. He reports a good trade 

 at his store. 



Kansas City, Mo. — E. L. Kiley, of 

 the Budd Park Greenhouses, St. John 

 and Hardesty avenues, is making a trial 

 of the Wittbold system of mechanical 

 watering and is so well pleased that he 

 fxpects to equip his whole place with the 

 apparatus. He has a aiormal water pres- 

 sure of ninety pounds to the square inch 

 and it makes the water fairly fly. In 

 fact, the hose connections will not stand 

 the full pressure without damage to the 

 hose. The pressure is much greater than 

 is needed to make the sprinklers work 

 successfully.
