Splendid Stock and Heavy Cuts 



HOR the opening of the Fall Season now at hand we are strong all 

 Along the Line. We are ready to take good care of all orders 

 for American Beauty, Bride, Maid, Chatenay, Rich- 

 mond, Liberty, Perle, Carnations, Lilies, Valley, Asparagus, 

 Smilax, Adiantum and Asters* 



Our stock is, as it was all last season, the best to be had in this 

 market, but we can supply all grades. Give us a trial order for whatever 

 grade of stock you need. While we do the largest shipping business 

 done in the Chicago market, no order is too small to receive our careful 

 attention. Send us a small order and larger orders will follow. Regular 

 standing orders will be shipped direct from the greenhouses. Lowest 

 market prices consistent with quality.

SPRINGFIELD, OHIO. 



Qub Meeting. 



The September meeting of the Spring- 

 field Florists' Club wns held on Monday 

 evening in the spacious and well ap- 

 pointed offices of The Good & Beese Co. 

 The membership committee reported hav- 

 ing added fifteen names to the original 

 twenty-two, with a possible five yet to 

 be secured, and perhaps also several 

 stockholders of the various incorporated 

 companies who arc not active in the 

 business but eligible to membership. 

 This meeting partook somewhat of the 

 nature of an exploitation of Spring- 

 field's manufactured products pertaining 

 to the florists' business, and the gen- 

 eral sentiment was to the effect that in 

 several such lines the city should be 

 shipping out such goods instead of 

 bringing them in from other sources. 



The Springfield Clay Mfg. Co., which 

 is said to be progressing under new 



mangement, exhibited some excellent 

 specimens of flower pots for which great 

 porosity is claimed and consequent fa- 

 vorable growth of plants. 



Various Notes. 



P. J. Agnew, who has long been doing 

 business here, partly in local retail trade 

 and to some extent as a grower for 

 other concerns, is reported as having 

 sold his establishment to James Camp- 

 bell, who has been in the employ of 

 The Good & Beese Co. 



C. M. Niuffer has installed a seventy 

 horse-power boiler of the Kroeschell 

 type, and E. H. Murphey's Sons, of 

 Urbana, a forty horse-power internally 

 fired boiler. 



The Home City Planing Mill Co., a 

 new concern with modern equipment, 

 supplied the necessary mill stuff for the 

 new houses erected by the Leedle Floral 

 Co. This was the first contract under- 

 taken by this company for florists' work, 

 although they had previously gotten out 

 a couple of houses for vegetable gar- 

 deners. 



During the season, three new houses 

 each 20x150 feet have been completed by 

 John A. Doyle, the rose grower. 



The Good & Beese Co. will place on 

 the market this fall a new rose named 

 Helen Good in honor of the young 

 daughter of John M. Good. This origi- 

 nated at The United States Nursery 

 Co. 's place at Bich, Miss., as a sport 

 from Maman Cochet, being considerably 

 lighter in color, somewhat resembling 

 Golden Gate. 



Thomas McBeth, one of Springfield's 

 veteran florists, exhibited to the club a 

 fine specimen of Hydrangea arborescens
