Peterson prove that progress ia being 

 made. 



The demand for basket plants is 

 heavy. Anything ^howy in a small pot 

 will do, both flowering and foliage. 



Poinsettias and berried plants are 

 popular. 



The Subway. 



"We will go through the subway." 

 It was E. A. Harvey who spoke. He 

 was standing in one of the large ranges 

 of glass owned and operated by Alvin 

 Harvey & Sons, at Brandywine Summit, 

 Pa. Had the speaker been in Philadel- 

 phia you would have supposed that he 

 meant to go under Market street to 

 reach the ferries or the "L," but to go 

 through the subway away out in the 

 Chester valley was queer, very queer.

Perhaps it was the Philadelphia subway 

 that was meant after all, for out on the 

 broad highroad right in front was a sign 

 that read "To Atlantic City," and At- 

 lantic City was over ninety miles away. 



Mr. Harvey, Sr., solved this question 

 by leading the way to the end of the 

 greenhouse, down a flight of steps, 

 through a tunnel, up another flight of 

 steps into another large greenhouse! 



The problem had been how to connect 

 two ranges without cutting off the main 

 driveway that ran between them and 

 without exposing the night fireman or 

 his less important employees to the 

 weather. The subway is the solution. 

 It is the work of Evans Harvey. It is 



made of reinforced concrete and is ex- 

 tremely well done. 



American Legion. 



Edward Towill's new cerise pink rose, 

 American Legion, is the livest thing in 

 the florists' world today. It is said to 

 have brought E. Gurney Hill from Rich- 

 mond. It received a visit from Charles 

 H. Totty, who was here last week, and 

 now no less important a personage than 

 Adolph Poehlmann has come on, it is 

 said, expressly to see the Towill seed-

 American Legion growing on his com- 

 pany's place at Morton Grove, 111, 

 where it is doing finely. It is unde»
