Winsor and White Enchantress 



Strong Rooted Cottings, Now Ready for Deh'very 



\U I M60D ^'^^ proved to be the finest carnation in the Urht pink clasB. We sold a large quantity of it last year, but there will be 

 ■■ ■ l^^^'l^ a much larger sale for it this year. At the English Carnation Show held in December, it was the winner in the light 

 pink class. It is doing well everywhere, and will supplant everything in that color. 



ms/UITI? ff?|yf*§f AMTPFdC win occupy the same position among white carnations that Enchantress does among 

 wvllllK. m_l^m^aa#4i^a i^k.)^^ gesh pinks. It has all the good qualities of the common Enchantress— long stem, 

 earliness, large size, freedom, etc. In our opinion, it is by far the best white carnation ever introduced. 



We have a splendid stock of both Winsor and White Enchantress ready for immediate delivery, and will guarantee perfect satisfaction 

 with the cuttlneo supplied. Do not wait, because tbe demand for these varieties is bound to be enormous. Order early, w^hlle "wb can 

 promise immediate delivery, and secure gilt-edged stock. We have a large stock ot both of these varieties, aud all uur cuttings are heel 

 cuttings, taKeu trom floweilug stems. On account of the quantity that we are growing, we are not obliged to over-propagate, and our stock is 

 in the most perfect and healthy condition.

Carnation Day. 



Sales this year did not compare favor- 

 ably with last year 's business for McKin- 

 ley day. The reason was very evident, 

 for on that occasion this year the ther- 

 mometer registered the lowest tempera- 

 ture of the season and few people ven- 

 tured out. 



It would be of more benefit to the 

 trade if people on this day would use 

 more flowers in their homes by giving 

 carnation parties or something of that 

 sort. It was forcibly proven this year 

 that the demand for boutonnieres de- 

 pended entirely on the weather. "What 

 looks more incongruous, anyway, than 

 heavy wraps and frozen flowers? Let 

 the home parties, with their floral favors, 

 continue and increase in popularity and 

 the sales for Carnation day will be satis- 

 factory and remunerative. J. L. J. 



MANCHESTER, MASS. 



The North Shore Horticultural Society 

 held its ninth annual banquet January 

 30. It was one of the most successful 

 on record, 219 being seated at the tables. 

 President Wm. Till acted as toastmaster. 

 Among the speakers were J. K. M. L. 

 Farquhar and J. W. Duncan, Boston. 



Washington C. H., O.— Poole & Purl- 

 lant, formerly located at Bellefontaine, 

 O., have purchased three acres of ground 

 here, on Washington avenue, and have 

 begun work in building a range of 

 houses. An oflSce, 12x44, and a green- 

 house, 22x100, will be erected at once. 

 As soon as these are completed, three 

 additional greenhouses, each 22x100, will 

 be constructed. 



Paducah, Ky. — C. L. Brunson & Co. 

 presented to the police department of 

 this city a large box of carnations, to 

 be used in observance of McKinley day. 

 As a consequence every member of the 

 police and detective forces appeared Jan- 

 uary 29 with a fine carnation upon the 

 lapel of his coat. There is an increasing 

 interest here in the celebration of Mc- 

 Kinley day, and more carnations were 

 worn on that occasion this year than ever 

 before.
