THE RIBBON HOUSE 



ScHLoss Bros., Ribbons, inc. 



31 and 33 East 2glh street, NEW YORK 



HEADQUARTERS 



For Florists' Ribbons, Chiffons and Novelties 



called the Edgeplain Floral Co. was 

 organized, with, it was said, a capital 

 stock of $100,000. This company pur- 

 chased six acres of land at St. Leon- 

 ard 's station on the Newtown branch of 

 the Philadelphia & Beading railway. 

 They erected one greenhouse 92x600 

 feet on this property, also a boiler house 

 and service building. Everything was 

 of the finest material and workmanship. 

 The greenhouse is the peer of anything 

 in this part of the country, while the 

 accommodations for heating surpass 

 anything here. The plant has been com- 

 pleted for three months. It is still idle 

 and for sale. These are the facts. It is 

 understood that this company's money 

 is exhausted, that more funds can not 

 be raised. The whole place is valued 

 at $125,000. 



Vaxious Notes. 



Recent visitors include James H. Fox, 

 Milwaukee, Wis.; Eldridge the Florist, 

 Danville, Va.; a representative of Car- 

 bone, of Boston, Mass., whose name was, 

 alas, missed; E. N. Kroninger and John 

 F. Horn, Allentown, Pa.; Charles Vor- 

 keller, of Bethlehem, Pa.; E. H. Smith 

 and E. H. Seidel, Hazleton, Pa. 



Eichard Fowler, rose grower at Clar- 

 ence Alwine 's, at Secane, is a brother 

 of W. E. Fowler, rose grower and man- 

 ager of the Highland Rose Co., at Mor- 

 ton. 



Transportation is as good today as it 

 was before the war. Shipments, both 

 by express and freight, are reasonably 

 certain to arrive in time. 



The Robert Craig Co. has removed its 

 headquarters from Forty-ninth and Mar- 

 ket street to Norwood, Pa. A landmark 

 of fifty years has gone. It is pleasant to 

 remember that the last year was the 

 best in the old place 's history and Nor- 

 wood is more than upholding the old 

 place's reputation for fine stock. 



A new flower store has been opened 

 at the Falls of the Schuylkill. 



Robert B. Bragg reports the arrival of 

 high-grade carnations at Edward 

 Rpifl 's. 



Edwin J. Fancourt has gone to In- 

 dianapolis. Mr. Fancourt found it 

 hard to get away. Business activity 

 and the moving of his department of 

 ribbons and supplies to a separate floor 

 made a lot to do. 



M. J. Callahan has been making ef- 

 fective use of dahlias in large numbers. 

 He uses only the best varieties.
