HOSE UNDER GLASS 



'* Electric " Hose is perfectly adapted to the hard, 

 constant service required in a greenhouse. 



Increase in our sales to florists during the last 

 few years has been enormous. 



"Once a customer, always a customer," has come 

 to be the rule. 



The hose is made of alternate tubes of pure 

 rubber and jackets of braided seine twine. The 



tuttes and jackets are vulcanized by tremendous 

 pressure into a unified fabric. 



This process of manufacture is protected by basic 

 patents. 



It produces a hose that will outwear, three to one, 

 a hose of ordinary, " lap welded " construction. 



It will be economy in every way for you to use 

 "Electric."

The Market. 



Bleak and desolate, a cold wave struck 

 us and blighted almost everything in 

 blossom. A week or two ago the first 

 hard frost touched the leaves and blos- 

 soms, but the hardest frost arrived April 

 22 and caused a great deal of damage — 

 just how much will not .be known until 

 the warmer weather comes again. 



Bulb stock is flooding the market, but 

 carnations, roses and lilies are scarce. 

 Outdoor work on hardy stock is in full 

 Bway, and business appears to be good in 

 that line, as the nurserymen seem satis- 

 fied. Bedding stock is advancing, and 

 though there may be a shortage, if the 

 usual demand exists, still every green- 

 house is showing a good supply and good 

 stock. 



Various Notes. 



April 19, the regular monthly meeting 

 of the Florists' Association took place in 

 the Pillsbury building, at the university, 

 where Prof. F. C. Clemens gave an illus- 

 trated lecture on landscape gardening. 

 The meeting was well attended, and the 

 lecture was enjoyed and found highly 

 profitable. The fair grounds committee 

 was to meet at the state fair grounds, to 

 arrange for better space and accommo- 

 dations next September. The premiums 

 for the state fair exhibitions have been 

 tripled and this will be an incentive to- 

 ward a fine display. 



S. M. Eobinson, of Vine Hill, Excel- 

 sior, has thrown his thirty-five acres into 

 nursery nnd greenhouse stock, with Will- 

 iam Gray as manager. M. E. M.
