One ot .the real floral shows ot

,The flowers are grown at the
old Hush homestead, in the south
part ot the city, where Miss liusb
hat a bewildering dlHplay of personally-conducted
flowers. They
ran all the gamut of color; black,
bjte, red blue, green, violet, ajl
the primary colors and an un
co an table number of tints and
shades .between. It Is eald that
the trained, Artistic-enough eye
can differentiate more than 2,
000,000 shades. It would be hard
to jsar thai there ; are not that
many tints! in tbe Bush gardens;
most eye do not get far beyond
the seven primary colors, and one
person In every 100 is entirely
color-blind. Wouldn't that be a
calamity to be shut out from the
enjoyment bf 2,000.000 separata
senitwtions of delight?
Th flowers are displayed in
treat vases; in the bank rooms,
and are daily delight to hundreds
of people. Some who haven't a
dollar in the bank any more than
