and dined at Chestnut Hill as the guests 

 of Alfred Burton. They found the va- 

 rious greenhouse ranges in pretty good 

 shape, though some showed the effects 

 of the war in the labor and coal short- 

 age. The day was a great success and 

 was thoroughly enjoyed by all. 



A Visitor of Note. 



Jesse A. Currey, of Portland, Ore., 

 member of the executive committee of 

 the American Kose Society and head of 

 the state board in charge of the rose 

 test gardens in that city, was here No- 

 vember 15. Mr. Currey came east on 

 government business in relation to con- 

 crete. He stated that the Portland gar- 

 dens, consisting of some four acres, were 

 doing well. To meet Mr. Currey a lit- 

 tle gathering of those closely identified 

 with the American Eose Society was ar- 

 ranged to talk over matters informally. 

 Those present were Robert G. Huey, 

 Samuel S. Pennock and Eobert Pyle. 

 The American Eose Society now num- 

 bers 1,500 members, a splendid showing, 

 giving much promise for the future of 

 the queen of flowers in this country. 



Various Notes. 



The annual chrysanthemum show in 

 Horticultural hall, Fairmount park, has 

 been abandoned this year on account of 

 the war. 



Stephen Mortensen, of Southampton, 

 Pa., visited Richmond, Ind., recently to 

 see the new roses, Columbia and Pre- 

 mier, growing at the establishment of 

 E. G. Hill, Joseph Hill and Frederick 

 H. Lemon. He thought they were won- 

 derful. 



Robert Byron Bragg returned to Ed- 

 ward Reid's November 13, after an ab- 

 sence of six weeks. His illness was due

to pneumonia and later to pleuropneu- 

 monia. Mr. Bragg suffered intensely, 

 but that is past now and he is rapidly 

 gaining strength. 



Morris Shrolt is receiving the con- 

 gratulations of his friends on his re- 

 lease by the draft board, owing to the 

 ending of the war. Mr. Shrolt is put- 

 ting his florists' business in good shape. 



William Berger's Sons have put a 

 handsome new Vim truck on the street. 

 They had the decorations for a promi- 

 nent out-of-the-eity wedding Novem- 

 ber 16. 



Henry M. Weiss & Sons have all their 

 carnation houses planted except the old 

 Eugene Weiss range. They have altered 

 their methods of early planting and 

 early cuttings and will do the same as 

 last year, bringing in their first heavy 

 crop at Thanksgiving. 



Sydney H. Bayersdorf er has been hon- 

 orably released from the service, owing 

 to the closing of the war. 



M. J. Callahan has recovered suf- 

 ficiently from his serious attack of in- 



fluenza to be able to do the buying for 

 his store. Mr. Callahan's two faithful 

 assistants kept things moving in good 

 style during the October rush. They 

 report November business as excellent. 



Robert A. Craig noted an immediate 

 improvement in the demand for plants 

 when peace was declared. 



Charles E. Meehan and Mrs. Meehan 

 spent the week-end at Ocean City, N, J. 



J. J. Habermehl's Sons have had a 

 good week at the Bellevue-Stratford. 

 Curiously enough, Monday, Peace day, 

 so dull in the wholesale market, was the 

 most active day of the week in their 

 beautiful shop, because people who came 

 to town to see the sights lunched at the 

 Bellevue and bought corsage bunches. 



Joseph G. Neidinger is steadily im- 

 proving after his recent operation in 

 the hospital. 



William J. Baker expects his steady 

 supply of fine chrysanthemums to con- 

 tinue right up to Thanksgiving. He is 

 getting Iva, a pretty bronze.
