A PERFECT GREENflTOCSB HOSE

PACKING CO. Iffi 



91-93 CHAMBERS ST. NEW YORK 



FURNISHED in continuous lengths of 500 

 An exceptionally high grade hose manufactured 

 with a woven jacket insertion instead of cotton 

 duck, and with specially selected rubbei^in the inner 

 tube and cover.^ " , 



The woven jacket construction 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 hose made on 

 cotton duck. " This construction also gives a more 

 flexible hose and reduces the possibility of kinking. I 

 "Magic" Hose is guaranteed to stand a pressure 

 of 500 pounds per square inch, although its bursting 1 

 pressure is f ar in excess ot this.

GULF COAST GROWERS. 



At present I am head gardener at a 

 large northern institution, but I have 

 been wondering lately what my chances 

 of success would be if I were to go to 

 New Orleans, Mobile or some other city 

 near the Gulf coast and start business 

 as a grower of carnations and other 

 stock for cut flowers. I understand, of 

 course, that the cultural methods must 

 be entirely different there from what 

 they are here, and I am aware that car- 

 nation growing in the far south is still 

 in what might be called an experimental 

 stage. Can you tell me just what has 

 already been accomplished in that line, 

 and what is the outlook for the future? 



H. D. C. 



As to growing carnations and other cut 

 flowers around New Orleans and Mobile, 

 we southerners must admit that we have 

 never given the carnations a fair trial, 

 but we expect they will do just as well 

 as the roses if given the proper houses 

 and careful attention. Before we had 

 made a success of growing roses under 

 glass, everybody said they could not be 

 grown as well as up north, and so it is 

 with carnations and all other plants. 

 We now believe that anything and 

 everything can be grown here, with the 

 proper houses, good water and the right , 

 attention. Carnations will require open 

 houses, with plenty of side ventilation 

 and proper attention. Outside they will 

 not do, unless planted on high land, well 

 prepared with cow peas, well drained 

 and kept free from weeds. 



Outdoor roses do well and generally 

 bloom ten months out of the twelve. 

 Chrysanthemums, gardenias, asters, cos- 

 mos, dahlias, tuberoses, gladioli, lilies, 

 narcissi, hyacinths and other bulbs, 

 flowering shrubs, most annuals and 

 perennials and most other flowers can 

 be grown here in their proper season.
