many exhibits were changed every day 

 and that in order to appreciate the show 

 one had to stay for some time. He was 

 disappointed at the small showing made 

 by the retail men, this being what he is 

 particularly interested in. Thos. Browne 

 was another who was well pleased with 

 the show at Chicago. He said it was to 

 be expected that things would not run as 

 smoothly the first year in so large an un- 

 dertaking. 



After adjournment the entertainment 

 committee tried to go the exhibition com- 

 mittee one better with a fine lunch.

Bethel, Conn. — About a year ago 

 Charles A. Webb, of Taylor avenue, built 

 a greenhouse adjoining his residence, in- 

 tending to use it only as a private con- 

 servatory. Discovering, however, that 

 there was a demand for hiS'.^ants and 

 out flowers, he soon began growing them 

 for the trade, and recently' ie- found it 

 neeeasary to double the size of his green- 

 house. His bot^ifCftter heating system is 

 fitted with a thermostat of his own in- 

 vention.

This Man Knows 



Herbert S. Nase, Sellersville, Pa., writes: — "The Capitol 

 Boiler I purchased of you in 1893 has given me entire satisfaction, 

 so much so that I have purchased one more today for heating my 

 greenhouse Ko. 2." 



Here is a man who tested and found the Capitol Boiler all 

 we claim for it. If you have any doubts, write him. 



Mr. Florist, you know how important the boiler is in a green- 

 house. You cannot afford to take chances or experiment. 



In Capitol Boilers you have Divided Sections (which mean, 

 in case of accident, repairs so promptly made as to prevent injury 

 to plants through lowering of temperature) ; you have a boiler that 

 utilizes every heat unit so that no fuel is wasted; you have a boiler 

 that requires but little attention, and is always reliable. 



It is better to be safe than sorry. Put in a Capitol Boiler.

The Standard 

 Steam Trap 



is aclmowledged the best for the 

 florist, because it is durable and 

 does its work without trouble and 

 annoyance, saving its cost by the 

 economy in coal bills.
