Best Atmosphere for 

 Keeping FloAvers ~ 



is inside a McCray Refrigerator. They are built with the 

 ^patented system of circulation of cold, dry, fresh air, which 

 preserves the beauty and fragrance, prevents wilting, and 

 uses an astonishingly small amount of ice. This saving of ice 

 pays for the refrigerator itself, as many florists have actually 

 demonstrated. There is no stagnant air in the McCray. 



McCray Refrigerators 



with their elegant finish will give your store a very attractive appear- 

 ance. They can be furnished with mirrors, and are lined with white 

 enamel, tile, opal glass, marble, etc, to suit your taste and pocketbook. 



A McCray Refrigerator will last more than a lifetime, and will save 

 ice for you daily, and will keep your stock in fresher condition than any 

 other refrigerator on the market. 



Write at once for Catalog' No. 71 which 

 gives you the details of the entire line.

TEMPERATURE FOR SALESROOM. 



"What is the proper temperature for a 

 salesroom where plants are kept! In 

 our place it has been from 65 to 73 de- 

 grees most of the trme. Will you tell 

 me if there are any kinds of flowering 

 plants which will or can stand such a 

 high temperature ? F. J. Y. 



The correct temperature at which to 

 keep a salesroom where plants are to be 

 kept depends somewhat on the heat you 

 have. "With hot water or steam you might 

 run up a little higher than in the dry 

 heat from a coal stove or a hot-air fur- 

 nace. From 60 to 65 degrees is about 

 right. Of course, in the case of a sud- 

 den change in the weather it may run 

 a little above or below for a short period, 

 but this you cannot prevent and it will 

 do no harm. 



While almost any blooming plants will 

 live in a temperature of from 65 to 73 

 degrees if given enough water, they will 

 not last. Azaleas, for instance, would 

 soon be too far advanced to sell, as would 

 hlacs, bulbous stock, etc. The tempera- 

 ture you speak of is really about right 

 for an ordinary living room, and any flo- 

 rist knows how short a time blooming 

 plants will last in the house. H. S.
