whole. Each basket, perfect in itself, 

 forms part of the general efifect. 



Golden was the predominating color. 

 Golden Spur daffodils, Yellow Prince 

 tulips and Calendula Prince of Orange 

 in several shades, with bows of golden 

 ribbon, gave this coloring. The effect 

 was softened by the pure white of Eas- 

 ter lilies, lilacs and narcissi, and con- 

 trasted by moderate use of violets, baby 

 primroses, scarlet tulips and — may I 

 sayt — mignonette. The flowers were 

 well arranged in baskets, with a strik- 

 ing black and yellow vase in the center, 

 placed on a green velvet cloth. The 

 baskets, white handles and birch bark, 

 were further graced by pussy willows 

 and ivy. Ferns were used in the back- 

 ground. 



This pretty window was arranged by 

 Frank R. Hastings, personally. 



Various Notes. 



The February meeting of the Penn- 

 sylvania Horticultural Society was held 

 in the lecture room of Horticultural hall 

 Monday afternoon, February 19. Prof. 

 Sanders, the economic zoologist of the 

 Pennsylvania department of agriculture, 

 Harrisburg, Pa., spoke on "Control of 

 Insects That Are Injurious to Plant 

 Life. ' ' 



Alphonse Pericat, of Collingdale, is 

 flowering some of the beautiful Rainbow 

 freesias that come in the tender shades. 



Robert F. Welsh spoke before the Ger- 

 mantown Horticultural Society in the 

 library of Vernon Park Monday even- 

 ing, February 19. His subject was "Mt. 

 Katahdin, in Maine." 



Sentiment is so strongly in favor of a 

 twenty-five per cent advance in the price 

 of spring-flowering plants that it seems 

 almost certain the meeting held in the 

 Florists ' Club as this paper goes to press 

 will take action toward this end. 



The regular meeting of the committee 

 in charge of the rose show to be held 

 next month took place on the afternoon 

 of February 15, in the Bellevue-Strat- 

 ford. The publicity campaign will com- 

 mence at once. The retail florists will 

 give the exhibition their hearty, prac- 

 tical support. The trade tickets are now 

 ready. The price is $25 per hundred.

Edward Reid is receiving superb 

 Spencer sweet peas, extra fine orchids 

 and wonderfully grown valley. 



Mark P. Mills is enthusiastic about 

 the coming rose festival. Phil.
