Business around St. Valentine's day 

 surpassed anything yet experienced, ac- 

 cording to the report of Mrs. Ashley, 

 who manages the store end of the Ernest 

 Ashley establishment. Violets, sweet 

 peas, narcissi, roses and carnations were 

 sold as placed in order. Floral baskets 

 were good sellers also. The greenhouses 

 here have been overhauled and are now 

 running at full capacity. More land has 

 been acquired to keep pace with the 

 growth of this concern. Mr. Ashley is 

 secretary of the Lehigh Valley Florists' 

 Club. From the spirit shown by the 

 members of this club, present and pros- 

 pective, John F. Horn, first president of 

 the organization, looks for a successful 

 future. 



John H. Sykos is justly proud of his 

 model range, evidence of a flourishing 

 business, in which he is assisted by his 

 three sisters. Both plants and cut flow- 

 ers are grown. The primula is a leader 

 and will be more extensively grown, as 

 the publicity office of the S. A. F. recom- 

 mends it to amateurs as being a plant 

 that is less subject to insect attacks 

 than others and a desirable house plant. 



Andrew Yeager was among those who 

 closed up part of tlieir ranges. Being 

 one of the fortunate ones who care not 

 whether the wind blows high or low, he 

 goes on buying Liberty bonds just the 

 same. Withal, he and his good wife find 

 much pleasure in continuing the busi- 

 ness, which, due to their untiring efforts, 

 has bountifully rewarded them. 



John F. Horn & Bro. grow largo num- 

 bers of vegetable plants and annuals 

 from seed sown in boxes placed upon 

 rows of pipes, as is usual. They at- 

 tribute the excellent germination in 

 large degree to care in sowing and 

 watering. Not a single kind failed to 

 germinate; in fact, many came up too 

 thickly. Stock for spring business is 

 in fine shape. The houses closed and 

 then reopened are planted with Kose 

 Kaiserin Augusta Victoria for summer 

 cropping. W. M.
