IT DID THE WORK. 



We potted up about 6,000 4-inch gera- 

 niums as a surplus over the needs of 

 our retail trade to try the Review and 

 see if it would sell some for us. We 

 sent in a small advertisement and in 

 five weeks we were sold out and re- 

 ceived orders for 1,000 more than we 

 had. We sent money b.ick to eight dif- 

 ferent states. When a man gets his of- 

 fer into the classified department of the 

 Review he wants to be careful or his 

 stock will all be sold and he will have 

 nothing left but empty houses to take 

 care of. The Review is worth dollars 

 a year, instead of $1, to any »one in the 

 business. You can use this letter if you 

 want to; it is true. Ragan Bros. 



LADDER FOR GREENHOUSE ROOFS 



In the Review of August 8 I saw a 

 reference to a ladder for greenhouse 

 roofs. I would suggest for the purpose 

 a ladder such as is used in stores — in 

 shoe stores, fgr instance — a ladder of 

 the roller kind, with a track for the 

 top of it to run on and another track 

 at the bottom. Such a ladder could be 

 moved by the operator wherever he 

 wanted it, without the trouble of get- 

 ting off it. W. M. S. 



Chrysanthemum 



By Arthur Herring^ton 



Formerly president Chrysanthemum 

 Society of America. 



The most complete and comprehensive 

 ■work on the cultivation of the chrysan- 

 themum that has yet been published in 

 America. Its scope and character may 

 be gleaned ifrom the list of coutents, 

 which comprises chapters on composts; 

 planting; benches, boxes or pots: general 

 cultural details; crown and terminal bnds; 

 feeding, its object and application; care 

 of the buds; exhibition and judging; spec- 

 imen plants, plants in pots; raising from 

 seed and hybridizing; sports; hardy 

 chrysanthemums; chrysanthemums for 

 south and west; insect pests and diseases; 

 classification and selection of varieties 

 for special purposes; history of the chrys-. 

 anthemum, etc. The book will be wel- 

 comed for the lucid, comprehensive, as 

 well as the practical character of its con- 

 tents. Handsomely illustrated. 163
