CARNATION CUTTINGS 



We are in unusually good position to supply exceptionally well- 

 rooted, healthy stock. We have such a large quantity of flowering 

 plants that we propagate only from heel cuttings from flowering 

 shoots. Our cuttings are rooted in light, sunny, airy houses, and we 

 are sure will satisfy the most critical buyer. 



A prominent carnation grower writes : "Tou seem to be the only 

 firm in the business that kno^vs how^ to pack stock and 

 liave It reach the buyer In Bood condition, and I have always 

 found your cuttings cheaper than the same varieties from others at 

 much lower figures." 



While our prices may not always be the cheapest, we certainly 

 can give, quality considered, as good value as, if not better than, 

 is obtainable anywhere. 



WINSOR, 



which we introduced l8styear,has proved to be 

 the finest novelty introduced in years. We think 

 it is the most profitable variety grown today, considering its fine color, 

 splendid keeping qualities, and productiveness. When properly grown, 

 it leaves little to be desired, and almost everyone succeeds with it. 



WHITE ENCHANTRESS, .^ounrUt 



carnation on account of its large size, long stem, earliness, and pro-

SPRINGFIELD, OHIO. 



The monthly meeting of the Spring- 

 field Floriats ' Club was held Tebruary 10, 

 with a fair attendance, considering the 

 inclement weather. Matters pertaining 

 to the spread of the civic improvement 

 idea, particularly through the efforts of 

 the retail dealers, were fully discussed. 



The offer of P. M. Cartmell to donate 

 $100 to any block in an established por- 

 tion of the city, which would entirely 

 remove fences from its front lawns, was 

 again considered, and as a further in- 

 centive the club offered to plant flowers 

 in the yards and window boxes, on such 

 block, free of charge. 



The following resolution was also 

 adopted: "That the officers of the club 

 inform the president of the city council 

 that if your honorable body will before 

 April 1, 1908, make the necessary altera- 

 tions, and provide for sodding and care, 

 the members of this club will for a 

 period of five years supply and plant on 

 the esplanade such bedding and orna- 

 mental stock as they deem in harmony 

 with the location and environments. This 

 offer is inspired by a desire to further 

 the idea embodied in the motto of our 

 clnb, 'Make Springfield beautiful,' and 

 we trust that it may meet ynth a prompt 

 acceptance and that we may.be duly no- 

 tified of any action by you in the mat- 

 ter." 



This offer 'was promptly accepted by 

 the city council on the following Tuesday 

 evening. G. D.
