are very valuable as cut flowers. He 

 gives Dr. Van Fleet much credit for 

 good work in this connection. 



Andrew Wilson and his plant oil 

 have been with us. He thinks the 

 Philadelphia gardeners are very 

 bright boys. That means some good 

 orders of course. The way has been 

 well paved for him in advance, as he 

 has been an intelligent and consistent 

 advertiser. 



Ernst F. Hoehl, late of Madison, N. 

 J., is the lessee of the Bunting place at 

 5Sth and Elrawood avenue, and is 

 making a success of it. His special- 

 ties are sweet peas. Asparagus plumo- 

 sus, adiantum, mignonette, and daisies. 

 He will add pot plants to the list the 

 coming season. 



The date for the Waretown opening 

 has just been announced by Commo- 

 dore Westcott. It will be Friday, 

 June 25. Who the lucky participants 

 will be is not yet known. The ac- 

 commodations are limited to twenty, 

 and the outsiders — composed of a mil- 

 lion or so — are all putting on their 

 sweetest for the time being — when 

 the commodore is around. He'd in- 



vite everybody if it were possible. 

 The commodore's heart is much big- 

 ger than his club house. What we 

 want is a few more club houses on 

 this lovely location. Come on you 

 tired western millionaire florists. 

 Lots of room. Buy a few acres. 



Alfred E. Burk has built a seventy- 

 five thousand-dollar mansion at Jef- 

 ferson and Carlisle streets, and will 

 shortly add to it an eighteen thousand- 

 dollar conservatory and garage. Mx. 

 Burk is a leather merchant of this city 

 and is an orchid fancier like his 

 brother, Louis Burk, the wealthy pork 

 packer. Louis Burk resides at Olney 

 and conducts his private conservato- 

 ries there on a commercial basis under 

 the name of the Grovedale Nurseries. 

 He has a fine collection of orchids and 

 the estate also boasts one of the best 

 examples of Japanese gardening in this 

 vicinity. He is superintending the 

 work of laying out the grounds, and 

 building and stocking the conservatory 

 on his brother's new place as he per- 

 sonally takes great delight in this sort 

 of pastime. He is a member of the 

 Florists' Gun Club and the Horticul- 

 tural Society.
