'4^ the future success of the firm have been well fulfilled so far and are in a fair way to further fulfillment. Welch Bros, possess in a i-emarlcable degree the tact that enables them to do busi- ness, and good business, without the friction that sometimes exists even where good men are concerned. No matter who does business with the firm, whether growers or retailers, they always take away with them the im- pression that they have been well treated and have had good value for their money or good money returned for their produce as the case may be.

They have 5,000 plants of the very best varieties—Polly Rose, Oc- tober Frost, Mrs. Henry Robinson, Col. Appleton, Mme. Touset, W. H. Chad- wick, Ti'nothy Eaton, Golden '\Ved- ding and Jeannie Nonin. The company has several hundred sash of violets, and one house, all of which will come in about the same time. Violets do well in this climate in cold frames, but the management is going to try out greenhouse growing to see it there is any advantage over the cold frames heretofore used ex- clusively, with an abundant supply. California and Princess of Wales are the principal varieties but a few double will be tried. Three houses are in ferns and greens, one in asparagus and one in palms—kentia, areca, , latania and others. Some months ago. CLEVELAND AUTOMOBILISTS AT CEDAR POINT, O.
