PANAMA-PACIFIC EXPOSITION. 



• ' The livest exhibit that has ever 

 bc< n made at any exposition," is the 

 br;ef description given to the horti- 

 cultural display in the Panama-Pacific 

 Intornational Exposition, by George A. 

 Deiinison, whose appointment as chief 

 oi' the Department of Horticulture for 

 the exposition has just been announced. 



J a a recent interview Mr. Dennison 

 made the following statement with 

 reference to the scope of the horticul- 

 tural exhibition: "Landscape architec- 

 ture, which will be ably represented 

 by exhibits from the leading archi- 

 tects in America, goes hand in hand 

 with plant origination. Indeed, plant 

 origination, a scientific undertaking, 

 has developed into a regular occupa- 

 tion. Where plant breeding was once 

 a mystery, we now have associations 

 and plant breeding stations all over 

 the country. The product of the 

 workers along this line, meeting a 

 great requirement and giving the world 

 a creation that fulfills the demands of 

 a necessity, I shall endeavor to include 

 in the exhibition, 



"Among the unusual exhibits to be 

 made in the exposition will be the 

 most magnificent display of orchids 

 ever brought together. This will be 

 a complete collection of all the vari- 

 eties found in the Philippines, and 

 will be made by F. W. Taylor, director 

 in chief of the Philippine commission. 

 There will be between 400 and 500 

 varieties, botanically classified espe- 

 cially for the information of the col- 

 lector, but arranged so that their 

 beauty may be enjoyed by all visitors. 



"The exposition has received assur- 

 ance of cooperation from a number of 

 the most prominent horticulturists in 

 the United States. There will be a 

 comprehensive exhibit of the remark- 

 able results in the improvement of 

 fruit varieties by Luther Burbank and 

 Albert Etter, and the unique results 

 of Carl Purdy's domestication of the 

 wild flora. 



"While Holland will be represented 

 in the World's Fair with a wonderful 

 display of bulbs, which is promised 

 to outdo any previous exposition dis- 

 play in the world, other equally enthu- 

 siastic bulb growers have promised bril- 

 liant displays. Some of the world's 

 "lost famous growers of gladioli, Ber- 

 muda lilies, roses, delphiniums and 

 rhododendrons will be sumptuously 

 represented in the exhibits, and Hawaii 

 has prepared for a magnificent collec- 

 tion of over 200 varieties of hibiscus 

 and tree ferns. These are but a few 

 of the many interesting nursery and 

 floral exhibits already arranged for. 

 Numerous others, equally beautiful, are 

 premised. 



"The trophy cup, valued at $1,000, 

 off^ red by the exposition to the creator 

 of the finest unnamed rose shown in 

 l^^'), has interested rose originators 

 all over the world, and already some of 

 ^h" greatest cultivators in the great

To 



Pacific Coast 



Florists : 



What stock have you 



for sale to the trade? 

 Is it moving as it should? 

 No? 



Then tell the trade about 

 it by using the Pacific Coast 

 Pages of The Review. 



Pacific Coast advertisers al- 

 most invariably report good 

 results. Like this: 



Say ! That ad's a humdinger for getting the 

 business.— Everett Floral Co., tverett, Wash. 



I sold all the Mum cuttings advertised, and you. 

 will not hear from me again until I can get some 

 more stock ready. Sh»ll root 100.000 Carnation, 

 cuttings for next season, as 1 know The Review 

 will sell them for me.— Frank Wilhelm, Los An- 

 geles, Cal. 



Please cut out of our advertisement In The Re- 

 view the cyclamen seedlings. We sold all our 

 surplus cyclamen seedlings as a direct result of 

 our advertisement in your paper.— Spokane 

 Greenhouses (Inc.), Spolcane, Wash. 



We want to say that our last advertisement in 

 The Review brought us orders from both the At- 

 lantic and Pacific coasts. We had, strangely 

 enough, on following days, orders from Salem, 

 Ore., and from Salem. Mass.— State Floral Co., 

 North Yakima, Wash. 



We are well pleased with the results obtained 

 bv advertising in the Pacific Coast Department of 

 The Review. We sold out clean and refused 

 many orders. The Review surely gives results. 

 —Van Slyke & Seamons. Tacoma, Wash.
