cality is rapidly building up and should 

 "be a good place for business. 



Shamrocks and green carnations ap- 

 peared at some of the smaller store about 

 the first of the month and are still with 

 us. 



George Gard is bringing in some fine 

 cinerarias and astilbe plants. He is also 

 doing a nice trade in rooted cuttings and 

 small plants, 



George Hollis, the chrysanthemum spe- 

 cialist, has a few new varieties which 

 he expects to introduce next fall. 



A, Martin is pushing the work on his 

 new addition. He has a nice stock of 

 small plants that will be in nice shape 

 for spring sales, Mac. 



EARLY GLADIOLI, 



Is there a way to get earlier flowers 

 of gladioli in the open field. Would it 

 pay to pot them up and plant the rooted 

 plants f What is a safe time to plant the 

 roots? F. F. S. 



Gladioli can be planted outdoors just 

 as soon as frost has left the ground and 

 it has become well dried out. Successive 

 batches can be planted until the early 

 part of June. If you put some bulbs 

 singly in 4-inch pots and grow along in 

 a cool greenhouse or coldframe and plant 

 outdoors about the middle of May, you 

 will get the flowers quite a little earlier. 



Another plan, where you want early 

 flowers, is to plant the bulbs in boxes 

 six to eight inches deep and of any con- 

 venient length and width. Keep under 

 glass until the end of May. Then stand 

 outdoors to flower. These will give you 

 splendid spikes much earlier than the out- 

 door planted bulbs. W. C. 



Hinsdale, Mass.— H, J. Smith says 

 that there is a large demand for hardy 

 cut ferns this season and that all the 

 dealers seem to be shipping many good 

 orders. There is a considerable quan- 

 tity of stock on hand, but the ferns are 

 beginning to spoil and there may be a 

 scarcity before the season ia over.
