I am' fully satisfied with your No. 2 Kroeschell boiler. I have had differ- 

 ent kinds'of saddle and tubular boilers, but none of them give such satisfac- 

 tion as yours. I have 7o< H) sq. ft. of glass, and your boiler would take care 

 of bOO I sq. ft. of glass. I maintain fin" temperature and fire every four 

 to six hour* In cold weather ; otherwise from six to eight hours.

and on the wall on the other. This 

 jpiping would also answer for the curled 

 varieties, such as Grand Bapids, except 

 ia the coldest weather, when a more 

 rapid growth could be secured by run- 

 ming a 2%-inch flow under the ridge 

 and a 2-inch return on each side of the 

 wide bed. If 2-inch flows are used, 

 there should be three, with eight re- 

 turns, under all conditions. 



NOETH ADAMS, MASS. 



The largest load of hardy cut ferns 

 ever drawn into North Adams arrived 

 the other afternoon from Beadsboro, 

 Vt. The team was owned and driven 

 by G. J. "Walker, of Savoy Center, Mr. 

 Walker is one of the eastern fern deal- 

 ers who ships to cold storage every fall 

 and holds the ferns for the winter 

 trade. The load contained 588,000 ferns 

 and the gross weight was 9,625 pounds. 

 The^ ferns were picked in the woods 

 about Beadsboro. They were sent to 

 the Pittsfield cold storage and com- 

 pletely filled one freight car. 



EVANSVTLLE, IND. 



The Market. 



The weather is so much cooler that 

 firing has been necessary for roses. 

 Business is excellent and, with a num- 

 ber of weddings for October, indications 

 are for a busy season. Mums are here 

 and for the next few weeks will be in 

 great demand. Boses and carnations 

 are improving. Asters are still of fair 

 quality. 



Various Notes. 



C. L. Niednagel has everything in 

 fine shape. His roses are making excel- 

 lent growth and he will soon be cutting 

 heavily from his Killarneys. The Amer- 

 ican Beauties are giving him stems of 

 good length and with good flowers. He 

 has installed a 100 horse-power Brownell 

 boiler and has it equipped with a steam 

 trap and a reducing valve, to regulate 

 the pressure of steam in the houses. 

 During the test everything worked well 

 and the steam went through the pipes 

 in a hurry. -^ 



Julius Niednagel & Sons arc having 

 a big trade. They have been cutting 

 heavily of roses and have use for all 

 of them. The carnations are getting a 

 good start. The mums are m good 

 health and give promise of good flowers. 

 The two new houses are about finished 

 and will be planted to carnations.

 cently had a funeral at Harrisburg,
