^ ^ THE UFE OF A GREENHOUSE IS THE GUTTER I 



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



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.

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



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

The Market. 



Florists generally report good trade 

 in all lines during the last two or three 

 weeks. There have been several large 

 public affairs and private receptions, 

 which called for many corsages and 

 decorations. This week 's trade called 

 for many potted plants, such as tulips, 

 daffodils, hyacinths and azaleas. Daf- 

 fodils are in good demand. Lily of the 

 valley is scarce. Good Easter and 

 calla lilies also are scarce. Sweet peas 

 are abundant and the sales are good. 

 Carnations are scarce, on account of 

 the dark weather last week. Boses are 

 plentiful, with Russell and Ophelia 

 proving the best sellers. The funeral 

 of the late Charles Eobinson, a promi- 

 nent brewer, was, from the florists' 

 point of view, the largest held in some 

 time. 



Various Notes. 



From the reports, the show April 6 

 to 8 will outclass any other show in 

 Pennsylvania, aside from the National 

 Show. 



Muir & Co. had the family work for 

 the Robinson funeral, including a blan- 

 ket of violets and valley and a number 

 of large designs. 



A visit to William MacDonald, at 

 Moosic, Pa., found everything looking 

 fine for Easter. His rambler roses nev- 

 er looked better. The lilies, hydran- 

 geas, tulips, daffodils and spiraeas were 

 also in the best of condition. 



D. W. Evans is cutting some fine 

 carnations and the crop is larger than 

 for several months. 



The Fernery had an unusually at- 

 tractive window display of baskets of 

 cut flowers and potted plants last week. 



S. Edelman, of the M. Rice Co., Phila- 

 delphia, had a large display of baskets 

 and florists' supplies at the Hotel 

 Casey. 



Miss Anna Griffiths, of the West Side 

 Floral Co., is preparing for a large 

 Easter business and has laid in a large 

 stock of fancy baskets. 



The New York Floral Co. is doing a 

 rushing business at the branch store at 

 Wilkes-Barre. F. J. M. 



PAYING HOUSES

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

 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.
