▼ASMNGTON. 



The good old summer time is with us 

 and there has been no perceptible change 

 in the last week. Funeral work is about 

 all that is doing now. There is little 

 demand for loose cut stuff, which is 

 poor. 



The busiest florists in town are the 

 outing committee and the chrysanthe- 

 mum show committees of the Florists' 

 Club. The former has completed all 

 arrangements for the outing July 25. 

 The show committee is a good one and 

 is getting in some good work. If the 

 pace set is kept up the show is bound to 

 be a hummer. George Cooke predicts 

 that it will be the finest ever held in 

 the capital city. The schedule will be 

 announced at the next meeting. The 

 club itself will not award any cash 

 prizes, but certificates. Quite a number 

 of prizes will be donated by the differ- 

 ent business houses. All the money made 

 at the show will be turned over to the 

 associated charities. The show will be 

 held about the second week in November 

 and most likely in the National Bifles' 

 Armory. 



Mr. and Mrs. J. L. Loose have gone 

 to Berkeley Springs, W. Va. 



Mr. and Mrs. William F. Gude and 

 George C. Schaffer have returned from 

 Saratoga, N. Y. F. H. Kramer is on 

 the way. Mr. Gude is grand treasurer 

 of the Grand Commandery, Knights 

 Templar of the District of Columbia, 

 and was representative to the grand en- 

 campment. 



Arthur Ward, at Small's, and John 

 Small, son of J. Henry Small, will sail 

 for Europe July 20 on the Etruria, to 

 be gone two months. J. Henry Small 

 will leave next week for Bailey's Island,

PAPER WHITE NARCISSUS. 



I intend to grow some Paper Whites 

 this fall and winter. I have a house 

 with solid beda about three feet from the 

 glass. The house runs north and south. 

 There is no glass on the sides. I would 

 like to know if Paper Whites would 

 grow there all right. How far apart 

 should the bulbs be planted, and if I 

 cover them with salt hay when should it

 Will they need staking up? A. E. S. 



Such a house as you speak of will 

 grow Paper Whites all right. I would 

 not, however, advise you to plant them 

 in the beds, as I think you could prob- 

 ably make more profitable use of them 

 by running some summer or early fall 

 crop ahead of the Paper Whites. I 

 would prefer to plant the bulbs in boxes, 

 which may be of any desired length. 

 Those twenty-four to thirty inches long, 



This is an example of a half-tone from one of
