 to add this department as a resrular line of our business. We shall handle only sucb Toung Stock as we know to be first-class in every respect— 

 from growers we know to produce and ship nothing but the best. At the same time, our outlet is so large we can make quick sale for all growers

TWO GRAND NEW ROSES EVERY GROWER NEEDS 



MY MARYLAND WHITE KILLARNEY, Waban Variety 



A sport from the Pink Klllamey, and identical in form and habit, 

 differing only in its pure white color. It has been carefully vrown 

 and only the very best wood selected for propagating; the result is 

 seen in the remarkable vigor of our growers' plants.

 $186.00; 1000, $860.00: 8600, $608.60; 6000, $1000.00.

 will be ready for delivery after Hareh 1, 1809. 



The greatest pink rose grown today. Many 



growers think it will displace Killamey. It is free 



from mildew at all times. Fine shaped bud; firm, 



full, free. Easiest grown rose in cultivation. 



8>i;-in. pota, $10.00 per 100; $90.00 per 1000. 

 Delivery, January 1 to March 1, 1909.

LONDON, ONT. 



The florists of this section have every 

 reason to thank the weather man for fa- 

 vorable weather this fall and winter. 

 Never in the memory of the writer have 

 we had such ideal weather for the holi- 

 day trade — just enough frost at night to 

 keep the streets in good condition, with 

 bright, mild days. This made shopping 

 a pleasure, and to these conditions must 

 be attributed in a measure the increased 

 sales, for the streets were thronged from 

 morning until late at night. There is no 

 doubt but the attractive window display 

 made by the stores induced many a pur- 

 chase which, had the weather not been 

 so favorable, would not have been made. 



Although ample preparations were 

 made for early customers, it was not until 

 Wednesday and Thursday that the busi- 

 ness was done. 



Each year there is an increased de- 

 mand for plants in preference to cut 

 flowers. This year baskets and other 

 plant arrangements, ranging in price 

 from $2 to $5, were much in demand, 

 while azaleas, poinsettias, cyclamens and 

 other flowering plants found a ready sale. 

 The demand for palms and ferns was 

 limited to a few good specimens. 



In cut flowers the honors were about 

 equally divided. Roses sold at from $2 

 to $5 per dozen, carnations at $1 to $3, 

 violets $1.50 per bunch and valley 75 

 cents per dozen. There was little or no 

 demand for bulb stock. The sales for 

 the week show an increase of over twenty 

 per cent. This we consider a good indi- 

 cation of the reaction of the times. 



J. Gammage & Sons have during the 

 last few months dismantled and moved 

 to their new place the greater portion 

 of the original plant, comprising 60,000 

 feet of glass. A new two-story service 

 building, 50x68, and six houses, each 200 

 feet long, have been erected. Six plant 

 houses, each 200 feet long, will be added 

 as soon as the weather will permit. 



Webb City, Mo. — Mr. and Mrs. Bren- 

 neman have returned from Arizona, 

 where they had gone in the hope of ben- 

 efiting Mr. Brenneman's hetdth. The 

 journey, however, seems to have been 

 of little avail, as he is now reported to 

 be in a critical condition.

WHITE KILLARNEY : MY MARYLAND 



After careful investigation, having become satiafled that the Waban Strain of Wlilta 

 Klllamay is superior to anything now in the market, we have withdrawn our Sport and 

 will not propagate it at all. We have made arrangements with the Waban Rose Conservator- 

 ies to procure an abundant supply of their stock and will propagate only from that. This 

 we offer for delivery after Feb. 15, 1909, at the following prices :
