Bright weather and cool nights have 

 helped the carnations and chrysanthe- 

 mums in a manner most satisfactory to 

 the growers. Carnation plants are 

 practically all housed and it is inter- 

 esting to note the scarcity of field- 

 grown plants for sale in this section. 

 Some of the growers have started cut- 

 tihg carnation blooms, which, while 

 still short of stem, bring a good price. 



At Charles M. Weaver's the first 

 plantings of indoor Spencer sweet peas 

 are starting to bloom. 



Albert M. Herr's houses of Kicard 

 and Poitevine geraniums, from which 

 cuttings are being rooted, are a pleas- 

 ant sight. For health and vigor they 

 are unsurpassed and thousands of cut- 

 tings are going into the sand daily. 



Rudolph Nagel is cutting some 

 Smith's Advance mums, which are of 

 high quality and reflect credit on their 

 grower. 



J. P. Siebold is devoting a consider- 

 able portion of his space to flowers for 

 cutting, where formerly geraniums for 

 cuttings were grown. His Marigold 

 mums are of high quality. 



At Peter Brown's millions of little 

 pansy plants are in the finest possible 

 condition. Mr. Brown's celebrated 

 strain of pansies are known through- 

 out the country. 



Mr. and Mrs. Fred Eitchey have be- 

 come enthusiastic autoists. 



At the B. F. Barr & Co. store Paul 

 Murphy has the window and a large 

 part of the store room made into a 

 beautiful garden, in which Barr's coni- 

 fers occupy a prominent position. To 

 some of us it is a pleasure to note with 

 what interest the passers-by regard an 

 exhibition of this kind. 



The Lancaster County Florists' Club 

 erpects to visit the autumn dahlia show 

 at the B. Vincent, Jr., & Sons Co. 

 place. White Marsh, Md., Thursday, 

 September 21. The trip will be made 

 by automobile. The party will leave 

 Center square, Lancaster, at 6:30 a. m., 

 proceed to Quarryville, thence on the 

 state road south to Conowingo bridge, 

 over Susquehanna river, then on the 

 state road, through Bel Air to a sign 

 on the left reading "White Marsh, six 

 miles." The route lies through a most 

 picturesque country and the Maryland 

 state roads are unsurpassed. 



Mr. and Mrs. Elmer J. Weaver en- 

 tertained a number of their friends at 

 dinner on the last day of Augfust. 

 Cards were played and the high prize 

 winners were Mrs. L. Landis and Mrs. 

 Ira H. Landis. H. K. R.
