FREMONT, NEB. 



On the morning of May 3 an inch of 

 snow fell here and the mercury stood at 

 5 degrees below freezing point. It is 

 believed that such a temperature must 

 ha^•e damaged any fruit Avhich had hith- 

 erto escaped unharmed. 



Our carnation stock Avas planted at the 

 usual time, about April 20, and every 

 plant in the field is killed nearly to the 

 ground. And they were from 3-inch pots 

 and well hardened in a eoldframe be- 

 fore planting out. They seem to be 

 breaking nicely from the base of the 

 stems, however, and we think that they 

 will all come along. Peonies are away 

 behind and will hardly make it by Dec- 

 oration day. Pansy planting by our cus- 

 tomers, which should be well under way, 

 has not begun. The small fruit crop 

 in this locality is practically all ruined. 

 Business has been good and is now 

 ahead of last season. "When the weather 

 reforms we expect to have all that we 

 can possibly handle, as people are get- 

 ting impatient to plant their flower beds 

 and we have a grand stock of bedding 

 stuff ready for them. 



We expect to begin the building of a 

 house for general stock June 1. The 

 house will be 18x120, of Moninger ma- 

 terial. We have just installed a gaso- 

 line engine for running a rotary pump, 

 with a capacity of a thousand gallons 

 an hour, which, combined with the ele- 

 vated tank pressure, enables us to run 

 three lines of hose at the same time, if 

 needed. 



Garden truck is as good as could be 

 expected, weather considered. We devote 

 200 sashes and seventeen acres of land 

 to this and find it profitable. We* ship 

 hundreds of bushels of tomatoes to the 

 north and west during the summer.

"BEST BY TEST" 



Reliable Insecticides 

 and Appliances. 



In connection with our varied 

 departments of Florists' Supplies 

 and Greenhouse Requisites, we have 

 200,000 square feet of glass of 

 modem construction devoted to Cut 

 Flowers and Plants. 



As Growers and Jobbers we are 

 large consumers and dealers of 

 "Reliable Insecticides." The great 

 number of advertised insecticides 

 has prompted us to thoroughly test 

 the benefits derived in their appli- 

 cation. We have the remedies 

 that will remedy. While we are 

 not offering "Better Remedies 

 manufactured by us," we are positive 

 that we can supply the necessary 

 articles that will do the work. 



Our stock complete.
