OCTOBEB 3, 1907. 



THE SUPERIOR 



Improved Internal-Fired Steel Boiler 



Made in 10 sizes, to heat from 2000 to 6500 feet of 4-inch 

 pipe. No brick-work necessary; shipped on skids, all 

 ready to move into place and begin firing. Can be cleaned 

 without letting the fire out. All hubs made so they 

 can be used for either cast-iron or steam pipe. Tested 

 at 25 lbs. pressure and warranted; can be used for low 

 pressure steam by adding steam drum. Best material; 

 best workmanship. Specially designed for greenhouse 

 use; corrects the faults of other boilers. Lightest boiler 

 on the market capable of performing equal work. We 

 defy competition in prices on any boiler of equal 

 capacity. Investigate. Send for new illustrated cata- 

 logue, just out.

Othello, dark; Mrs. E. Kenyon, yellow; 

 Dorothy Eckford, Nora Unwin and 

 White Wonder, whites; Navy Blue, blue. 

 The novelties, such as Frank Dolby, Mrs. 

 Castle and others, were grown only in a 

 limited way, and it was a general impres- 

 sion that they would have to show a 

 marked improvement before displacing 

 any of the foregoing list of varieties.

COLUMBUS, OHIO. 



State of Business. 



Trade has been rather brisk here for 

 the last week or so, and stock scarce. 

 Asters are all gone and are certainly 

 missed. Roses are coming in more plen- 

 tifully, but are far from being enough 

 to fill orders. Carnations are coming on 

 nicely, but very few are blooming at 

 this writing. The month of September 

 is one of the worst months in the year 

 for stock on this market, as very few of 

 the growers plant early enough to have 

 much stock at this time. Mums are look- 

 ing fine and there are some few of the 

 earlier varieties to be seen on the mar- 

 ket. They will be welcomed by all, as it 

 will break the spell of trying to fill or- 

 ders with nothing, so to speak. 



Florists' Qub. 



The Fli.rists' Club held its regular 

 meeting September 22. There was a 

 good turnout, as the members were much 

 interested in the mum show, to be given 

 in November. President Stephens ap- 

 pointed the following committee on the 

 show: Messrs. Torrey, Eeichert, Metz- 

 meier, Ciirrie and Wedemeyer. After the 

 meeting the single men rolled against the 

 married men. Of course the married 

 men lost. The four highest rollers were 

 as follows: Single — Reichert, Blum and 

 Buehler ; married — McKellar. 



Various Notes. 



.1. E. Hdlenthal has a very fine house 

 of carnations; in fact, the' best to be 

 seen here. 



Sherman ."-Stephens reports nuims com- 

 ing on finely. He also has a large wed- 

 ding decoration on hand for the Grand 

 wedding at Grove City, O.

The Fifth Avenue Floral Co. has just 

 finished glazing its last house in the new 

 range and is busy getting ready to plant 

 it in carnations. Mr. Siebert deserves 

 credit on handling the job on this range 

 of glass, as it is something new around 

 here to see such houses. Stock at this 

 place is looking fine. 



Morris, the little son of Wm. Graff, 

 went through a severe operation for a 

 growth in his nose and throat, but is 

 getting along nicely, which is a great re- 

 lief to his parents and all who know him. 



George Bauman was exhibiting a photo 

 of his wife in the aster patch when the 

 plants were in their prime. TTiey caught 

 her with .300 choice blooms in her arms, 

 which makes an elegant picture. 



Wm. Graff has been at, Chicago this 

 week. He says business is good and 

 would be l)etter if good stock were more 

 plentiful. J. M.
