HUNT'S GUARANTEED FERTILIZERS 



OUR FERTILIZERS ARE PREPARED ESPECIALLY FOR FLORISTS' USE and are analyzed by an expert chem- 

 ist to see that they are tree trom all acids. You can depend upon their bmng Just what you 

 want, AND SAFE. You oucht to have these on hand at all times, ready for use. 



PURE BONE MEAL 



The brand we are seJlinK has no superior. It is an absolutely 

 uniform grade of pure bone, jtuaranteed free from acids, and is 

 sold at as low rates as many inferior brands, which cannot be used 

 with safety in greenhouse work.

HUNT'S PURE BONE FLOUR 



This is identical with our Pure Bone 

 Meal, except it is ground to a very 

 fine dust or flour, making it especially 

 valuable for use in liquid form or for 

 mixing with other fertilizers when 

 quick action is required.

BLOOD AND BONE 



Preferred by many of our best and largest growers owing to 

 its great percentage of ammonia and available phosphate, which 



makes it quick acting. ' It is a mixture of pure tankage or blood 

 and the best grade of Bone Meal in proportions to stimulate root 

 action and bring out the best color in the blooms.

PULVERIZED SHEEP MANURE 



One of the most effective of ferti- 

 lizers and largely used by the best 

 growers, both as a top dressing and 

 in the manure tanks. The raw mater- 

 ial for Hunt's Sheep Manure is the 

 droppings taken from solid floor sheen 

 corrals. Ordinary manures are 

 largely shoveled up from the ground 

 and contain a large proportion of soil 

 for which you pay, but from which 

 you get nothing except possibly weed 

 seed. A trial order will convince the 

 most skeptical of the superiority of 

 our brand.

NEW ORLEANS. 



Our field roses, which have been bad 

 80 far, are coining better every day and 

 some good flowers can be cut now. As- 

 ters have been planted quite extensively, 

 but our dry, hot summer is often against 

 them. Still, some growers are success- 

 ful with them. One of our cut flowers 

 for summer is the tuberose, which is 

 making its appearance just now, the 

 newly imported bulbs seeming to be 

 ahead of the ones kept over from last 

 season. 



The Gardeners' Mutual Protective As- 

 sociation celebrated its thirty-third an- 

 nual festival at the Southern park May 

 17. Two other associations, the New Or- 

 leans Vegetable Growers' and the Ship- 

 pers' Association, also joined in the fes- 

 tivities. These, organizations are all 

 strong and show that this business has 

 had a large increase. Geo. Koch, one of 

 the largest truck gardeners around the 

 city, was grand marshal of the street 

 pageant. M. M. L. 



Franklin, N. H. — The business of 

 the Franklin Floral Co. has increased 

 steadily during the last four years, under 

 the management of George H. Bartlett, 

 and now uses about 7,000 square feet of 

 glass. One of the houses is devoted ex- 

 clusively to roses and another to carna- 

 tions. 



Lynn, Mass. — As this is now a "dry" 

 city, the liquor store formerly conducted 

 by Michael J. Fenton & Co., in Central 

 square, will soon become a flower, fruit 

 and confectionery store. Already a force 

 of men are remodeling the inside of the 

 store for this purpose.
