309 Hain Street, CINCINNATI. O. 



The next gtop was at H. W. Den- 

 linger 's, where a fine lot of Alma 

 Ward were in evidence, the dark 

 weather making them closely resemble 

 Prosperity. 



The third stop was at the establish- 

 ment of G. H. Landis, of Paradise. 

 Here we saw an especially fine bench 

 of Benora. Mr. Landis also had a 

 bench of Lawson-Enchantress that he 

 was proud of, and with good reason. 

 He also grows freesias and white and 

 yellow daisies for cut flowers, and had 

 a few lupines, a curiosity to most of 

 us. Outdoors he has a big lot of sweet 

 peas and centaureas, and he grows 

 gladioli by the millions, as well as a 

 big lot of peonies. 



The fourth and last stop was made 

 at the two adjoining and interlocking 

 establishments of Chas. B. and Elmer 

 Weaver, their glass combined making 

 the largest place in the county. Chas. 

 B. grows sweet peas in his new 400- 

 foot house exclusively, as well as in some 

 others, and calendulas and mignonette 

 in the balance, all of it good stock. 

 Elmer is a carnation and tomato man. 

 Here Carnation Comfort was in strong 

 evidence and is well liked. He has 

 discarded Enchantress for Pink De- 

 light, of which he has a fine lot. He 

 contemplates making White Wonder his 

 exclusive white. He uses concrete 

 benches for propagating and, as he is 

 building some new ones, they must be 

 satisfactory. 



The next meeting, February 20, will 

 be carnation night. Any one sending 

 flowers should address them to H. A. 

 Schroyer, Lancaster, Pa.
