THE LIFE OF A GREENHOUSE IS THE GUTTER I 



Garland gutters that were put up unpainted 20 years ago are as good as 

 new today (we can prove this) and are good for 100 years more. 



Poehlmann Bros. Co., Chicago's largest growers, are using 14 miles of Gar- 

 land gutters and will use no other. Altogether we have hundreds of miles 

 of our gutters in commercial ranges all over the country and can refer you 

 to the owners. 



LET US FIGURE WITH YOU ON YOUR NEXT HOUSE. 

 We supply everything for the greenhouse and can save you money, 

 as we operate our own foundry, wood mill and machine shops.

NEWARK, N. J. 



The Market. 



Business was quiet in Newark last 

 week. There was considerable funeral 

 work, a few decorations and some ex- 

 tra business Washington's birthday, 

 but the volume was not as large as it 

 should have been at this time of the 

 year. On the other hand, business was 

 not dull. Bulbous stock is plentiful 

 and reasonable in price. Its abundance 

 has forced the prices of other flowers 

 down to some extent, though the lower 

 price for carnations is due to the fact 

 that they are now more plentiful. 

 Roses remain the same. Valley is of 

 good quality and lower in price than 

 it was. Orchids continue to be cheap 

 and tulips are quite popular. Pussy 

 willows are arriving in large quantities 

 and are used in window displays. 



Various Notes. 



Ladies' night was observed by the 

 Essex County Florists' Club at the 

 February meeting. There was a large 

 number present and everyone had a 

 most enjoyable time. There was an 

 interesting entertainment by three pro- 

 fessionals, followed by a social hour. 

 The committee in charge consisted of 

 Richard Youell, chairman; J. McLaugh- 

 lin, J. Pfeufer and G. Davies. No busi- 

 ness session was held. 



McLaughlin & Murphy have been un- 

 usually busy since the first of the year, 

 the volume of trade exceeding that of 

 the corresponding period of last year. 

 .This firm furnished some of the deco- 

 rative material for the auto show. 



George Muller reports business as 

 fair. He has had considerable funeral 

 work during the last few weeks.

The entertainment committee of the 

 Westchester and Fairfield Horticultural 

 Society deserves great credit for the 

 splendid entertainment and dance fur- 

 nished the society Wednesday evening, 

 February 16, at the Town hall, Green- 

 wich, Conn. A minstrel troupe of 

 twenty performers kept the party in 

 good humor for about two hours. The 

 members, their families, friends and a 

 large representation of the seed and 

 nursery trades filled the spacious hall. 

 While the floor was being cleared for 

 dancing a splendid buffet lunch was 

 served. The dances, both old and new, 

 kept everybody going until 1 a. m.

PAYING HOUSES 



When planning for your new houses you no doubt wish 

 to erect the same so that in the course of time you have 

 the best returns from them. You want to consider the 

 durability, the convenience, the efficiency, and 

 last but not least, the cost of the houses. Not one of 



these points is overlooked in our construction. Write for our sketches 



and estimates.
