The Weekly Florists' Review^ 



47 



eighty acres of land recently purchased 

 by him on the east side, at the end of 

 Mountain street where it strikes the Gage 

 canal. Mr. Fassell, landscape gardener, 

 is hard at work on the tract, laying it 

 out in orange and lemon groves, with 

 residence sites which are approached by 

 wide roads that wind around the eleva- 

 tions, the roads being bordered by palms 

 and pines planted alternately. The roads 

 will also be lined with shrubs, so that in 

 a few years they will resemble the beauti- 

 ful drives that have made Smiley 

 Heights famous. A large force of men 

 under the direction of W. V. Darling is 

 at work upon the streets, and 80,000 

 trees are being planted from nursery 

 stock, while fifty acres will be devoted 

 to grape fruit. A pumping plant has 

 been installed, and the entire tract is 

 irrigated by an excellent system of 

 flumes and ditches. Most of this work 

 is under the direction of Charles F. 

 Collier, who is Mr. Tetley 's foreman. The 

 tract is called Monte Vista. 



WITH HYDROCYANIC GAS. 



The following are the results of a re- 

 cent experiment in the use of hydro- 

 cyanic acid gas for the killing of white 

 fly in one of my greenhouses: The size 

 of the house is 241-^x57 feet; three- 

 quarter span. T*he north wall is six 

 feet six inches high; the south wall is 

 six feet high; the height to the ridge is 

 eleven feet six inches. I used five jars, 

 and in each one of the jars was a solu- 

 tion consisting of one pint of water, one 

 pint of sulphuric acid, and two ounces 

 and a half of potassium cyanide. 



The foliage was dry. Every fly in the 

 house was killed and the stock was not 

 greatly damaged. 



Night blooming jasmines were very 

 slightly injured. Mums suffered in the 

 tender foliage only. Pelargoniums and 

 tomatoes were injured only in the young 

 growth. Asters were harmed very slight- 

 ly, and only on tips of tender leaves; no 

 flowers or buds. 



The following plants in the house es- 

 caped without any injury: Sprengeri, 

 ferns, roses, geraniums, Jerusalem cher- 

 ries, smilax, adiantum, Plumosus nanus, 

 Drummond phlox, sweet alyssum, salvias, 

 stocks, moon flowers and climbing ferns.
