 claim for being called violets except in 

 color and general appearance. They lost 

 their sweetness, and in consequence their 

 best characteristic, largely by improper 

 methods of handling. It is a great ad- 

 vantage to the violet grower if he is so

 be put on the market the same day. To 

 gather them at night and get them into 

 the market the following day will, in a 

 measure, provide for freshness, but 

 much of the odor will be lost. Care and 

 attention, therefore, in the gathering, 

 bunching, packing, etc., is of the highest 

 importance. Where the violets are 

 shipped any distance it is desirable to 

 have special packing cases made, in order 

 that they may reach their destination

 turns per square foot of space occupied 

 as quite a number of other florists' 

 crops. The returns will not be so large 

 as for roses or for carnations, but they 

 will be sufficient to enable one to make
