beautify the globe were blotted out ex
cept one, and a popular vote was to be
taken as to which would remain, we be-
lieve the rose would be lett to exhale It's
delightful perfume and open it's beauti-
full petals to the hearts of the people all
over the world There is no one flower
that has such wide range as the rose.
1t can be found on the isles close to the
equator and far north where old Boreas
holds sway for more than half the year.
In Florida we see the rose, in some
plcaes, ia great profusion, then again only
the remnants of an effort goes to show
that the rose has been there. Now what
we want in the articles on rose culture
is how they can be grown, what kinds
do best on their own roots, what roots do
best and in fact all the information that
an actual experience has brought out.
We want this information for the good
it will do, so that when our towns, villa
ges and farm houses are visited by tour
lists or homeseekers, they can truly say
that this is the Land of Flowers. The
rose has been designated the Queen of
Flowers" and Florida should be the
Queen state for raising them.
In the premiums we offer it is possible
to secure sixty choice rooted roses or
less mum Der of selected varieties of larger
SIZE. so that either one of the prizes will
give good start. The offer is as fol-
lows:
For the best article on "Roses and
Rose Culture in Florida We will give,

selected $500 worth of Roses, and one

SECOND PRIZE $500 worth of roses

THIRD PR1zE- 500 worth of roses

The prize article referred to should be
confined to Roses and Rose Culture In
Florida. The other stipulation is that
the information given should be authen-
tic and based on actual experience or
observation in Florida. The articles can
be sent to us anytime before the 10Th of
Sentember and should be addressed,

remember the time when | didn't have

when l was young-7O years ago-am
nearly so now. Many new varieties are
grown now some of them hardly worth
the trouble of caring for them. l grow
everything that was to be had In Vlck's
catalogue at that time. The seeds were
always sure to grow and many happy
hours were spent among those beautiful
flowers.
The manner of cultivating in New
Hampshire, where came from, and the
many varieties that would grow and
blossom there, don't seem to like the
soil here, while some Of them, like the
sweet pea, grow little while and then
die. Some of the ANIMALS, like the
pansy, must be planted in the fall to get
nice blossoms, while the tynnia, petunia
and phlox and many others will do we'll
semi-annuals will grow awhile, like
the ..hollyhock and the sweet william
but never bloom, many of the bulbs
give us beautiful flowers. Gladiolas
should be planted several inches deep
and require partial shade, while many
of the lilies grow and bloom without
any special care; there are so many
kinds of climbers here one hardly knows
where to put them all and the great
variety of shrubs with their gorgeous
flowers make US astonished that SO few
Of them are grown around the dwellings.
My sons came here twenty years ago.
l sent them seeds; they prepared beds
and planted them in the little orange
grove they had just set out. They are
growing there still Large boquets are
often brought from there. The pillow
don't stop them from growing and bios
soming Who will say they can't grow
flowers in Florida?
We have been away from our home
we find the weeds and grass higher than
our heads. By carefully cleaning the
ground of weeds we find many of the
flowers still there. Many Of them have
bIosSomed: others are blooming now.
Seeds are coming up that were planted
a long time ago.
This is wonderful place. No one
need to live without flowers the year
round in this state, if they wish for
them. There were many beautiful
things growing in the ground here be-
grow in our gardens at the north, while
many Of our plants that grew there
wont thrive, here. P8onies and some of
the lilies, as we'll as many of the ANIMALS,
will not pay for the trouble Of caring
for them but there are plenty that will
grow here without much care when
they are put in the ground, if the weeds
are not allowed to grow.

value you may make what use of it you
please. When l get started about

Charges.
Ira Van Camp, formerly connect
ed with a tailoring business here
and later travelling representative
of e. o. Hall & Son and the Hol-
lister Drug Co., is under arrest at
Wa,luku, Maui, charged with EN-
bezzling funds belonging to his
employers. He was arrested Thurs
day at Kahului and doubtless had a
preliminary hearing this morning,
The case will ultimately be review
ed in the courts here.
Van Camp is we'll known in Ho-
nolulu and had quite number OF
friends who will regret his trouble.
He has been an easy going fellow.
A short time ago he gave NJ. G.
Johnston, the Boss Candy man, a
note for $254 for money loaned and
an old account. Upon this note
his passport was stopped at Kahu-
lui. 1t is charged he was prepar-
ing to embark for San Francisco
when Mr.. Johnston's agent arrived.
But this is not the serious
trouble. At Lahaina some weeks
ago he, it is charged, collected $67
for the account of Hall & Son.
Other amounts footing up about
$I5o, were also collected. These
it is claimed been never reported
by Mr.. Van Camp and never turn
ed in. His account with HOLSTER
& Co., is understood to be also
irregular.
