October 11, 1906. 



INDIANAPOLIS. 



The Market. 



Trade in all lines is getting stronger, 

 all house stuff selling ree^ily. The heavy 

 rains of the past week spoiled a great 

 deal of the outdoor stock and conse- 

 quently made flowers scarce. The ex- 

 pected frost has not appeared so far and 

 we are having ideal autumn weather. 

 Chrysanthemums will soon be on the 

 market in quantity. There are more 

 mums grown around this city than ever 

 before and all look for a large trade. 



Various Note*. 



F. A. Conway & Co. intend to plant 

 two acres with their white aster next 

 year; it is a fine flower, pure white^and 

 a good keeper. The firm expects to. put 

 it on the market in 1908. 



The greenhouses on Warmon avenue 

 recently run by Mr. Schelske have been 

 discontinued, the proprietor having left 

 the city without saying good-bye to his 

 friends. 



-The different seed houses report a 

 fair trade in bulbs this fall. 



A. Wiegand, who is traveling in the 

 Hawaiian^ Islands, writes that he is hav- 

 ing a fine\trip and that the country and 

 scenery are\ magnificent. 8. 



ORANGE. N. J. 



Dahlia night was observed by the New 

 Jersey Floricultural Society October 5 

 with an attractive show, which attracted 

 a large' attendance of members and 

 friends. The old favorites, with newer 

 strains, particularly in the cactus and 

 single varieties, were displayed. Lager 

 & Hurrell, Joseph A. Manda, and Wil- 

 liam Barr furnished orchids, and J. C. 

 Williams, of Montclair, fruits in addi-' 

 tion to his large dahlia display. Prizes 

 were awarded and certificates given. 

 Two new members were elected and 

 provision made for the forthcoming 

 twelfth annual show in the hall of the 

 Woman's Club, November 5 and 6, the 

 premium list for which may be had by 

 addressing J. B. Davis, secretary. 



Wyomissing, Pa. — Harry Hacker and 

 Harry Heck, who have general super- 

 vision of the G. H. Hoskin greenhouses, 

 on Garfield avenue, have benched the 

 carnation plants in fine shape.

Scores of Florists Use 



HAMMOND'S GRAPE DUST 



Clirysantiiemums and Carnations 



This comes from WALLACE GOMERSALL, late superintendent of the 

 famous " Wodenethe," owned and finely maintained by Winthrop Sargent, 

 Esq., Fishkill-on-Hudson. N Y.: 



"For Chrysanthemums we use GRAPE DUST withjhe best results by 

 freely dusting with it until the delicate blooms come, then we are a bit shy of 

 it, to prevent any. staining of the petals, but during the green state, eve^in 

 bad weather, there is no trace of fungus, and we keep free of the sppt. I 

 have recommended it to many gardeners, and so far mv acquaintances have 

 found it very valuable. In common wiih many gardeners and florists, I 

 have found it of great value in checking the rust on carnations. It is not 

 expensive to use, for by using in air bellows it diffuses itself everywhere, and 

 is, in my judgment, a valuable every day article. For roses it is of exceptional 

 benefit against mildew." 



How to Use "GRAPE DUST" for VIOLETS, 



ROSES, etc., in the Greenhouse. 



Fill the house with dust as soon as the plants are 

 set, and let it settle over the plants, or put one pound 

 to a pail of water and spray it finely over everything, 

 plants, ground, benches, etc. Spores are likelv to 

 settle anywhere about, and prevention is ihe best 

 remedy. Its fineness, its reliability, and its great 

 diffusiveness combine to make GRAPE DUST 

 take the highest rank as a popular and economical 

 fungicide, and no mistake about it.
