flattering letter from • one of the big 

 guns in the mercantile world, compli- 

 menting him on the liberal manner in 

 which he handled a large transaction. 



William Berger 's Sons had their store 

 decorated with some wonderfully fine 

 Tausendschoen roses of great size prior 

 to their use at a smart society affair. 



Bernard Eschner says that the M. 

 Bice Co. will depend on America for all 

 that America can make. 



J. M. Deutscher is pleased with a new 

 fern named in his honor, also with the 

 timely arrival of heavy shipments of

At the last lecture of the season at 

 the Pennsylvania Horticultural Society, 

 Tuesday, April 13, Prof. A. C. Bealj of 

 Cornell University, spoke on gladioli. 

 He gave a clear history of these bulbous 

 plants, giving an account of the work 

 done in hybridizing, naming the prin- 

 cipal growers and the results that they 

 had obtained. His talk was illustrated 

 by slides. The exhibits staged at this 

 meeting were of the usual high quality. 

 Exhibitors winning prizes were William 

 Comfort, Rosemont; Thomas Roberts, 

 Philadelphia; Alexander MacLeod, 

 Villa Nova; David Aiken, Rosemont; 

 Axel Lindroth, Bryn Mawr; Frank Coll, 

 Haverford; O. A. Muller, Ambler, and 

 M. J. Flynn, St. Davids.

The Market. 



Business was fair last week. While 

 prices seem low when compared with 

 what was secured during the winter, 

 they are well ahead of former years at 

 this season and there is no ground for 

 discouragement. In addition to funeral 

 work, there have been a good number 

 of weddings, which have helped to use 

 up the flowers arriving. April so far 

 has been cool and cloudy days are more 

 numerous than sunny ones. This re- 

 duces supplies, but keeps them of ex- 

 cellent quality. 



Roses are somewhat lower and short- 

 stemmed flowers have touched $10 per 

 thousand in some cases. Quotations
