ORCHARDISTS GET TOGETHER. 



With the government at its back, an 

 organization which already embraces 

 ninety per cent of the growers and 

 shippers of apples in the northwest has 

 been formed for the purpose of mar- 

 keting boxed apples and some other 

 fruit this season on a cooperative basis. 

 The organization, it js said, wiir insure 

 a fair margin of profit to its members 

 through better marketing information 

 and facilities. 



This announcement wns made by 

 C. E. Bassett, Clarence W. Mooman and 

 W. H. Kerr, government market ex- 

 perts of the Department of Agriculture, 

 who are in Portland, Ore., after sev- 

 eral months of organization work in 

 the northwest. The organization will 

 market in an orderlv manner ninety 

 per cent of the $200,000,000 crop grown 

 on the 530,000 acres in apples in the 

 four northwestern states of Oregon, 

 Idaho, Montana and Washington. 



USINGER'S UTTERANCES. 



Raymond S. Rainbow, of Fair Oaks, 

 T*a., recently installed a new icebox. A 

 good showing of spring flowers was 

 noted. Several pieces of design work 

 were being made for out-of-town de- 

 livery. 



A striking window of yellow attract- 

 ed one's attention to the beautiful dis- 

 play of spring flowers in the new store 

 of G. Wessenaur, of Sewickley, Pa. The 

 walls are almost entirely of glass, ad- 

 joining a greenhouse used for show pur- 

 poses, and naturally the i)lace is noticed 

 for a considerable distance. Yellow tu- 

 lips and daffodils, roses and genistas 

 were displayed, besides many fine speci- 

 mens of azaleas, hydrangeas; primroses, 

 lilies and some rare ferns and foliage 

 plants. A new White truck was added 

 to the delivery equipment last week. 



Mrs. W. H. Rosenbauer, of Sewickley, 

 Pa., has been confined to the sick-room 

 for several months Although she is 

 convalescent, it will be several weeks 

 before she will be able to be about. 



The breaking up of winter, with a 

 few springlike days last week, caused 

 a rush for seeds at .1. W. Glenn's, of 

 Kittanning, Pa. 



George Bros. & Vo. have opened a 

 store opposite the Pennsylvania depot 

 in New Kensington, Pa. 



The continued demand for funeral 

 work has delayed J. Weimer & Sons, of 

 A'erona, Pa., in their out<loor work. 

 Several handsome designs were noted, 

 especially a star and crescent design in 

 white and pink. W. T. U. 



London, England. — It was but a 

 short time ago that the trade learned 

 with regret of the disappearance of 

 one great Chelsea nursery, that of 

 James Veitch & Sons, and now we 

 have news of the passage of another 

 landmark of horticulture by the clos- 

 ing of the neighboring nursery and 

 seed business of W. Bull & Sons. It is 

 announced that Edward Bull, the sur- 

 viving partner in the firm, retired 

 from the nursery business March 31
