of most of the family, all of whom were 

 kept on the jump at her Union street 

 place. 



The Harrington Co., at both stores, 

 did all the business it could handle. 

 The firm's Easter lilies were fine and 

 were soon cleaned up. 



The Butler Florists did a wonderful 

 business in their restricted space. 



The Burns Floral Co. had no compe- 

 tition at that end of Third avenue, and, 

 having fine stock, was attracting a 

 large number of customers. 



Mrs. L. W. McCoy had an immense 

 stock of all kinds of flowers, and had 

 to turn business away on account of 

 the rush. Jean Lamley returned in 

 time to help Mrs. McCoy out at Easter. 



Eosaia Bros, made an almost com- 

 plete clean-up of their huge supply and 

 say they did more than double the last 

 Easter business. 



The Rainier Floral Co. has purchased 

 an automobile for delivery purposes. 



The Floral Market Co. was kept ex- 

 ceedingly busy prior to Easter in fill- 

 ing out-of-town orders, which were 

 large and numerous, reflecting credit on 

 the enterprise of this young firm.

CHOOSING A QREENHOUSE SITE. 



I have an opportunity to get either 

 one of two pieces of land on which to 

 erect some greenhouses, and I should be 

 pleased if some one, who knows more 

 about the subject than I do, would tell 

 me which site to select. One location 

 is between two hills and is so sur- 

 rounded that the wind never hits it, to 

 speak of. Even in this New York cli- 

 mate, one could have the ventilators 

 open every day, as far as the wind is 

 concerned, and it would be less diflScult 

 to heat a house that would be so pro- 

 tected. However, between these hills 

 the sun is one hour late in the morning 

 and goes down an hour and a half early 

 in the afternoon; that is, it takes the 

 sun one hour to get up over the east 

 hill and it goes down behind the west 

 hill an hour and a half before sunset. 



The other location is out in the mid- 

 dle of a plain, so to speak, with no hill 

 near it and no trees or buildings. This 

 place gets the sunshine early and late, 

 but every wind we have sweeps across 

 the flats worse than anywhere else. On 

 some days the ventilators could scarcely 

 be opened if the wind were blowing 

 hard. Which is the better site, all other 

 considerations being equal? A. R. E. 



While it is desirable to have a green- 

 house so located that it will be pro- 

 tected as much as possible from the 

 prevailing winds, the matter of sun- 

 - shine is of even greater importance, 

 especially if the house is to be used for 

 growing cut flowers. Consequently, if 

 as much as two and one-half hours of 

 sunshine can be gained by using the 

 site on the plain, as compared with the 

 one between the hills, it would be bet-

ter to choose the former location. Be- 

 sides, unless the hills shut off the wind 

 quite thoroughly, it might be found 

 that the air currents would be as strong 

 as on the level land. Unless the houses 

 have something to break the wind, it 

 is a good plan to put out evergreens on 

 the windward side to serve that pur- 

 pose.
