Gentlemen— Please quote me prices on your 

 best rubber hose. I want the same kind 1 bought 

 from you several years ago, which was the best 

 hose I ever had, as it does not kink and stands 

 our very strong water pressure well. 



Yours truly, 

 Paul Nlehoff.

NEWPORT. 



The faithfulness of John T. Martin, 

 gardener for thirty-five years to the late 

 Mrs. John Carter Brown, has been re- 

 warded by Mrs. Brown's daughter, Mrs. 

 William Watts Sherman, who has in- 

 stalled old John and his family in one 

 of the prettiest of the smaller cottages 

 in Bellevue avenue, that thoroughfare de 

 luxe of Newport. In all the thirty-five 

 years Mr. Martin never missed a day's 

 work. Mrs. Sherman, the daughter, was 

 deeply touched by Mr. Martin's devotion 

 to her mother, and eaid, before Mrs. 

 Brown died, that he should be assured 

 of a home and a comfortable income as 

 long as he lived. 



The premium lists for the fall show 

 of the Newport Horticultural Society 

 have been distributed. The show will 

 be open for three days, the same as last 

 year, as well as on Sunday, when the 

 public will be admitted free, the date« 

 being September 18 to 20. A new fea- 

 ture that has been introduced is that 

 the best seedling dahlia on exhibition 

 will, if considered worthy, be awarded 

 the society's medal, whether entered in 

 the medal class or not. 



The greenhouses of the John Hodgson 

 estate, which were sold recently to John 

 Nelson, have been rented to Oscar 

 Schultz. ' They contain about 35,000 

 square feet of glass. Mr. Schultz al- 

 ready has extensive greenhouses and nur- 

 series on Houston avenue and a retail 

 store on Broadway. 



William Jurgens and wife, of New 

 York, were here July 22, leaving for 

 home by way of Providence. He was 

 on a visit to his greenhouses here and 

 reports that his chrysanthemums are in 

 fine shape and will be ready to cut in a 

 few days. The entire lot will be cut 

 exclusively for the New York market.

Buckskin Greenhouse Hose 



%-inoIit 15o per toot, coupled, f. o. b. Detroit. 



Furnished in continnous lengths of 500 feet, withoat Beam, joint or 



connection, in }^ and |^ inch sizes only. An exceptionally high-grade 



Florists' hose; with a double woven jacket insertion instead of cotton duck, 



and with specially selected rubber in the inner tube and cover. 



The double woven jacket coDBtruction makes a stronger hose than can be obtained 

 from cotton duck, and absolutely precludes the possibility of cover opening at seam— 

 a common cause of failure of garden hose made on cotton duck. This construction 

 also lives ft more flexible hose and reduces tbe possibility of kinking. 



Buclcslcin Hose is guaranteed to stand a pressure of 600 pounds per 

 square inch, although its bursting pressure is far in excess of this.

Henry M. "Wilson is interested in the 

 propagation of a new berry, which he 

 has called the Wilson raspberry. It is 

 deep red, of immense size, from an inch 

 and an eighth to an inch and a quarter 

 long, thimble shaped and of good flavor. 

 Mr. Wilson expects greatly to improve 

 the flavor and size and place it on the 

 market. W. H. M.
