VAYSIDE NOTES. 



' * Expansion is the order of the day, ' ' 

 remarked Alfred Patrick, of Auburn, 

 N. Y., as he showed me a plot of land 

 upon which he will locate the nucleus of 

 a new range of glass. Eoses in solid 

 beds are grown very successfully, one 

 bed run for nine seasons now being 

 thrown out. Amid a fine assortment of 

 bedding stock I noted a batch of im- 

 patiens raised from seed obtained from 

 Dreer — bright, catchy colors, not a dull 

 one in the whole collection. They sell at 

 sight and are very profitable to handle. 



L. E. Marquisee, of Syracuse, N. Y., 

 is busy planting out carnations. The 

 seedlings are very thrifty; 60,000 plants 

 are in the field and only the best are 

 brought in. I never yet saw an off crop 

 at this place. Flamingo is selling well 

 in Europe. Foreman Bellamy will plant 

 a general line for retail trade instead of 

 running so heavily to the divine flower. 



J. B. Keller's Sons, Rochester, N. Y., 

 have one of the best collections of hardy 

 perennials in the state, and as they are 

 extensively engaged in landscape work, 

 they have an opportunity to furnish 

 choice stock at first hand. At the time 

 of my visit the majority of the boys had 

 been up all night decorating — one of the 

 many big jobs they have had this season. 



Fred Schlegel, of Rochester, says 

 things could be better, but he is a hustler 

 and not content with the average run of 

 things. Hart's commission house is fill- 

 ing the bill. There is a fine chance for 

 a big rose growing .establishment to lo- 

 cate near-by. 



Thomas Bussell, of Jamestown, N. Y., 

 has a big supply of bedding stock. 

 Through the winter he supplies this town 

 with fine lettuce. Improved Grand Rap- 

 ids is the name and it is the best curly 

 variety. More houses will be built this 

 season. A. Bartlett, at Greenhurst, is 

 also a successful grower of the delectable 

 salad, which is always in demand. I un- 

 derstand A. X. Broadhead has disposed 

 of his stock of poultry and intends cov- 

 ering the entire place with glass for the 

 purpose of raising lettuce. There is 

 money in it if it is done right. Fred A. 

 Dornian reports a busy spring, with diffi- 

 culty to keep patrons from planting out 

 too soon. 



E. Worden, of Jamestown, has an idea 

 of guaranteeing the life of bedding 

 stock when planted out early, by charg- 

 ing a higher rate — insuring it, as it' 

 were. He makes a great show at the 

 Martin place. 



Dan Offerle, of Warren, Pa., has al- 

 most fully recovered from the severe 

 accident he met with some time since, 

 when it looked as if one of our old-time 

 f raters would leave us; instead of which 

 he intends building more houses and will 

 continue to turn out the fine stock for 

 which this town is noted. 



Charles Guenther, of Hamburg, N. Y., 

 has left this busy corner of the carnation 

 belt for a brief \isit to the fatherland,

are best because they 

 are thin, light, porous

 figures at Kasting's emporium, which was 

 recently favored with a visit by the 

 famous Viennese Orchestra, who declared 

 that this busy commission house was the 

 eighth wonder of the world. A vote of 

 thanks was passed to Mr. Kasting for 

 his care to show the visitors all that was 

 rosy and related to Queen Flora. Barney 

 Myers, at Lancaster, had a grand lot of 

 Beauties for their inspection, but just
