GARDENIAS 



Last year the supply of Gardenias 

 early in the season was not equal to the 

 demand. This fall, we are glad to say, our 

 growers have arranged their crops so that 

 we will have an ample quantity of the choicest blooms 

 right through the season.

is for producing the best, so that call- 

 ers expected to find this idea main- 

 tained in his retail venture. They 

 were not disappointed. Every article 

 of furniture in the store suggests sub- 

 stantiality and usefulness. There is 

 nothing flimsy, nothing unnecessary. 

 Every detail of arrangement is care- 

 fully worked out. The handsome fern- 

 filled window, with the touches of 

 bright color; the ribbon case, the show 

 ice-box, the bank-like cashier 's office, 

 all confirm this impression. The con- 

 servatory in the rear of the store is a 

 growing house, an important point, too. 

 This conservatory is arranged for ef- 

 fect. It is beautiful from the street 

 :i8 well as on close view. To it are 



connected Mr. Becker's five plant 

 'louses, where choice azaleas, poinset- 

 'ias, ferns and later lilies will be pro- 



lueed as of yore for the wholesale 



narket, where Mr. Becker's product is 



lighly prized.
