■-'•*■ P^** »3 I-*II IlCai ▼▼111 It planted In the open Kround. The dwarf plants, tlxteen to twenty inches 

 hisrh, are clad in rioh. dark green foliaire and carry a profuwlon of the pure white flowers, borne upon strong stems six to eight 

 incheolonK. Each stem has two or three of the fully expanded, well-formed flowers, of srood size and placed close tbgethef. 



From seed planted on May IRth Burpee's EaxlieMt Wblte was in full bloom on July Ist, while Mont Blanc; planted tbe 

 same day, was showing only a few buds. It is also wondrously profuse-flowering. 



Burpee's Earliest White 



is not only as extremely early, but also just as hardy as the fatnous pint" 

 and-wbite Burpee's Karliest of All. It has black seed — and is really the 

 only clear white Sweet Pea that has ! This insures a better stand, stronger and more thrifty plants. 



2956 Burpee's Earliest White 



is not only the earliest white in the open ground, but is also 

 une(iualed for forcing. The plants under glass begin to bloom 

 freely when only twelve inches high and continue to grow and flower profu«ely until, when six or eight feet tall, they reach the top 

 of the greenhouse; the plants can then be cut back, if desired, and will make an equafly vigorous second growth.

ALBANY, N. Y. 



Qub Meeting. 



The Albany Florists ' Club held its 

 last meeting at the home of Patrick 

 Hyde, 486 Hudson avenue. Fred A. 

 Danker read an instructive paper on 

 ''The Aster and Its Diseases." Be- 

 sides Mr. Danker, the question was spok- 

 en on by Louis Marks and John Hag- 

 gerty. 



Toward the close of the evening 

 resolutions were adopted condemning 

 the actions of certain unscrupulous per- 

 sons, who by some means secure the 

 cards of legitimate florists and go about 

 to houses where crepe is seen upon the 

 door and solicit orders for flowers. 



Arrangements were made for a clam- 

 bake which is to be given August 30 at 

 the establishment of Henkes Bros., in 

 Loudonville. This outing will be given 

 to the members of the club and their 

 friends. The affair is in charge of the 

 following committee: Frederick Henkes, 

 chairman; William King and Patrick 

 Hyde. These gentlemen will have charge 

 of the sports for the day: F. A. Danker, 

 chairman; ijdward Tracey, F. Connolly, 

 J. Haggerty and J. Butts. 



Five new members were received into 

 the cluD. They were George Sehinkel, 

 R. D. Griffen, Theodore Draulleyj Amos 

 Balford and Alfred Simmons. Proposals 

 for two new members were received. 

 Among the out-of-town guests of the dub 

 were: James H. Schneider, of Rhine- 

 beck, and Lewis E. Wood, of Fishkill. 



After the regular business of the meet- 

 ing was completed, the members were 

 entertained by Denis McCarthy, who ren- 

 dered some clever songs and recitations.
