per cent, on their bulbs planted and 

 even at that there were 50 per cent, 

 more than the market needed. Even 

 tor a prospective good season the over- 

 planting of lilies last fall, as indicatfed 

 by this influx, must have been simply 

 absurd. Now we will see everybody 

 rushing to the other extreme in plac- 

 ing next season's order. Lilies will be 

 wanted next year but it is best to be 

 on the safe .side and go slow. That is 

 far from dropping them altogether 

 and Tushing ott to something else in a 

 panic — just because indiscreet over- 

 planting has been indulged in. Among 

 novelies that met favor was the new- 

 rambler rose "Tausendschon" and the 

 snow-white Hydrangea aborescens. 

 Some largee plants of bougainvillea 

 v.'ere to be seen but we have not heard 

 of any sales. Azaleas were never bet- 

 ter as to quality. The miniature 

 crimson azaleas Hexe and Hinodegeri 

 were particular favorites for made-up 

 baskets. Ericas were seen here and 

 there in moderate quantity and Far- 

 leyense and Amerpohli and Whitmani 

 ferns wer'e used with fine effect. 

 Square terra cotta vases of a rough 

 finish and natural grey in color with 

 raised ornaments were a novelty and 

 sold well when filled with well- 

 arranged plant combinations. The 

 birch basket was seen in great variety. 

 Some lovely Dorothy Perkins and 

 Lady Gay roses were seen in the select 

 stores. Deutzia crenata fl. pi. was in 

 moderate supply while the more com- 

 mon gracilis was exceedingly plenti- 

 ful. Hybrid roses such as Brunner. 

 American Beauty, Mrs. Laing and 

 Paul Neyron. were in good supply bul 

 the demand was not particularly brisk. 

 Pot gardenias and jasmines In meagre 

 supply and with little call. Genistas 

 less in evidence than ever this year. 

 Crimson Ramblers Were plentiful and 

 in genera! very well done. These 

 cleaned up better than many other 

 stocks. Rhododendrons sold well es- 

 pecially the new one — Pink Pearl. 

 Poliag'e plants were little called for 

 separately, but many of the smaller 

 sizes of palms, crotons, dracenas, and 

 ferns, were used in made-up work. 



The rpening of the new establish- 

 ment of J. H. Orth, McKeesport, Pa., 

 on April 4, was a great success and 

 throngs cf people were in attendance. 

 Several thousand carnations were pre- 

 sented as favors to the gues-ts.
