Safety First 



GARLAND SEMI-IRON Greenhouses, designed by experienced 

 engineers and growers and built by experienced workmen, are the 



best investment possible for growers desiring the most for their money. REPEAT ORDERS 

 for GARLAND PRODUCTS are the best word possible for GARLAND QUALITY and 

 GARLAND SERVICE. They are coming in daily. May we not have your inquiry ?

NEW BEDFORD, MASS. 



The Market. 



Business has quieted a little since the 

 holidays, but prices still hold up and 

 will continue to do so as long as the 

 present dark weather lasts. During the 

 last week it has been unusually dark for 

 this time of year, and roses, carnations 

 and violets are scarce and high. 



Various Notes. 



Frank L. Gray has left the employ 

 of the Peckham Floral Co., of Fair- 

 haven, to take a position in Providence, 

 R. I. 



William E. Mosher reports business 

 good. 



Edward M. Pierce is cutting some 

 splendid flowers of Calendula Orange 

 King. He also is picking pansies and 

 sweet peas in quantity. Freesias will 

 be ready in about a week or ten days. 



The Peckham Floral Co., of Fair- 

 haven, has about 17,000 geraniums 

 potted and will have about as many 

 more when rooted. 



The New Bedford Horticultural So- 

 ciety held its regular meeting January 

 8, in the Public Library building. Elec- 

 tion of officers for the ensuing year was 

 held. 



A recent visit to the establishment 

 of S. E. Shaw found everything in first- 

 class condition. The carnations and 

 sweet peas look remarkably well. Mr. 

 Shaw picked a heavy crop of violets 

 for Christmas. A large new boiler has 

 been added to the heating system.
