PHILADELPHIA NOTES. 



Rudbeckia Golden Glow, acliillea and 

 gaillardia add a little touch of variety 

 to a bald and uninteresting market 



We do not know what has agitated 

 the tinfoil market. Maybe Wilson. 

 Maybe the Bull Moose. Anyhow, she's 

 stiffened up. Fine work soiuewhere. 



The young lady whose picture ap- 

 pears on page IIG of last week's issue 

 Is Janet, daughter of Robert Craig, Jr. 

 A lovely picture. Hey for ane an' 

 twenty, Janet. 



A. B. Cartledge was In Philadelphia 

 en the 29th ulto brown and salt sea- 

 soned from a three weeks' yacht 

 cruise up and down the Atlantic Sea- 

 board. He goes off again Saturday for 

 another two weeks. 



Robert Schoch has returned from a 

 two weeks' marine vacation at Harvey 

 Cedars. He thinks he will have no 

 trouble in winning the next (at-man 

 trophy if they ever let a bean pole 

 enter the lists again. 



Charles Sim writes from Glasgow, 

 under date of July 15th, announcing 

 "all well and a good voyage"; and with 

 his own felicitations, sends the kind 

 regards of his fellow voyagers Hugh 

 Dickson, Alexander B. Scott and Geo. 

 Fowler. 



B. Eschner has been busy the past 

 few days in arranging tor the exhibit 

 at Chicago of florists' supplies and rib- 

 bons from the House of Rice. He 

 promises soiue startling novelties in 

 both specialties, and that the exhibit 

 will surpass any that M. Rice & Co. 

 have ever shown. 



The Rice Co. have at last got their 

 bridges between their old and new 

 buildings completed. A great deal of 

 trouble was experienced and much time 

 consumed in red tape with fire and 

 building permits with the city officials; 

 but all is now O. K. and the old stor- 

 age and manufacturing facilities are 

 doubled. 



The next meeting of the Florists' 

 Club will be notable as arrangements 

 will then be completed for the trip to 

 Chicago. The various committees — 

 transportation, hotels, sports, etc. — will 

 report, and the discussions thereon 

 will be lively. Aug. 6th is the date. 

 Be on hand, and help set things going 

 the way you want them. 



Johti Jensen: "You don't dare 

 promise anything to a customer just 

 now, seeing that the growers have 

 stopped growing Kaiserin." 



Siwplr f^ijdiieii: "What's the matter 

 with the growers. John, that they 

 have stopped growing Kaiserin?" 



John (with intense disgust): 

 "Ach-h! They want to make a million, 

 all in a minute — and they fall all over 

 themselves." 



Bring Back the Birds 



While you are 

 working out 

 your ideal In 



the garden, why 



not provideahome 

 for the birds that 

 help to make life 

 in the country 

 really worth 

 while ? A rustic 

 house placed in a 

 tree or on a pole 

 will make an ex- 

 celltni lioiiiL lur tlic birds and add to the attractive- 

 ness of the surroundings. We have them in all 

 sizes and shapes to suit any style of archi- 

 tecture.
