. The American florist : a weekly journal for the trade. Floriculture; Florists. *9*3- The American Florist. 767. BOBBINK & ATKIN'S EXHIBIT AT THE NATIONAL FLOWER SHOW. it is very seldom that good stock is grown. Sometimes it is possible to get good stock without attention to these details, but this is more good luck than good management, and it is very seldom that a grower is able to repeat such a chance success. These are the points which our ex- perience as wholesalers has brought most forcibly to my attention, and I hope you will consider them as they have been given—hints and sugges- tions made in a spirit of frankness and helpfulness and not in the spirit of fault finding. I believe that every man wants to improve his business whenever and wherever he can and is glad to get pointers even if they are in the line of criticism and not praise. We too have our faults and are glad to be told of our mistakes so that we can seek a remedy for them. But our interests are identical and there can be no separation of our motives, OUT ambitions and our results. One binges on the other and the more we try to help each other with friendly criticism and deserved praise as well as blame, the greater efforts we will both be able to put forth. Give us your confidence and support, believe that we are wanking for your best Interests as well as our own. and then there can be no question of our mu- tual success and profit.
