Chas. W. Crouch, of Knoxville, Tenn., 

 is making many improvements in his 

 big plant and believes holiday business 

 will be fully equal to that of former 

 years. 



Chas. L. Baum, of Knoxville, will have 

 a fine batch of the Jeanne Nonin chrys- 

 anthemum for the holidays. This is one 

 of the best late kinds. Carnations in 

 solid beds are in heavy crop. Lawson, 

 Enchantress and Boston Market are lead- 

 ers. Bose-pink Enchantress ia all that 

 was claimed for it; blooins four inches 

 across and stems thirty-six inches long 

 are not unusual here. Additional houses 

 will be built in the spring.

 reports a busy season on the ridge, with 

 several good orders ahead for the holi- 

 days.

Mangum, Okla. — A. Gardiner, recently 

 of Waxahachie, Tex., is now preparing 

 for business here. He is building two 

 houses, each 16x125 feet, and will grow 

 plants, hardy shrubs and ttees, besides 

 some cut flowers. He is putting his 

 houses three feet down in the ground and 

 is making the walls of concrete, three 

 feet high, with twenty inches of glass on 

 each side. He says there is a good de- 

 mand for all kinds of trees and hardy 

 stuff.
