PHILADELPHIA NOTES. 



The Roebllng conservatories at Tren- 

 ton, N. J. are showing with pride a 

 pure snow-white Dendrobium Phalae- 

 nopsis — with an unpronounceable and 

 unspellable terminal. At least, Mr. 

 Goodier's assistant — the expert Mr. 

 Keeling — was unable to satisfy either 

 himself or the writer on the latter 

 points. Mr. Keeling is from Bradford 

 Forks. 



Another Lord & Burnliam house has 

 heen ordered by the Robert Craig Co. 

 for their Norwood place, to be deliv- 

 ered within four weeks. 



Wm. Henry Maule has awarded the 

 construction of their greenhouse at 

 their Jersey testing grounds to the 

 King Construction Co. 



Wm. Robertson has a lemon yellow 

 sport from Cheltoni chrysanthemum 

 which is considered b/ the experts to 

 be very superior.

The thanks of HORTICULTURE and 

 the writer are due to Francis Can- 

 ning for reporting the P. H. S. fall 

 show, on account of pressure of outside 

 business this season. We hate to have 

 anybody else do it, but we could not 

 get a better substitute. 



James F. Mapes, of the Mapes 

 Rustic Works, Clayton, N. J., has 

 nearing completion his new factory 

 t52 X 146 tt. — of corrugated galvanized 

 iron — to replace the structure destroyed 

 by fire last September. New machin- 

 ery has been introduced, and those in 

 the trade who need window boxes, 

 rustic logs, or anything in the line of 

 natural bark or branches will find this 

 concern h-eadquarters. Their adver- 

 tisement in another column of this 

 issue is interesting reading. 



The S. S. Pennock-Meehan Co. wish 

 us to explain that last week's prices 

 on cattleyas, etc., were inserted 

 through a misunderstanding.
