baskets of flowers suggestivo of spring 

 wore used on tlic supj)er tables. 



Jolin Wilson arranged a beautiful 

 •window for the firm. It included a largo, 

 deep blue bowl of calla lilies with a few 

 sprays of pussy willows, a low-handled 

 basket of Acacia pubescens and Cat- 

 tleya Triana', a green bird cage orna- 

 mented with a bunch of Golden Spur 

 narcissi tied on the side with a bow of 

 ribbon and some Butterfly and Ophelia 

 roses at the base, a most pleasing com- 

 Ijination. Another bird cage in a differ- 

 ent color was adorned with Prince of 

 •Orange calendula and Cattloya Triana^ 

 ihe former at the base of the cage. A 

 judicious use of green enlivened the 

 effect. 



Various Notes. 



^Samuel S. Pennock believes that there 

 is room both for Ophelia and for Butter- 

 fly, and that the market needs both 

 varieties. 



W. L. Edwards, of Norwood, Pa., suf- 

 fered a serious loss by fire on the morn- 

 ing of January 29. 



John Kuhn, of Olney, has brought his 

 Acacia pubescens into bloom. They arc 

 choice. 



Percy T'tterman is successfully carry- 

 ing on the business of Wyatt's Flower 

 Shop. 



It is pleasant to record that Benedict 

 Gibbs is getting better. 



Clarence T'^. Liggit says there will be 

 more planting of roses this season than 

 last, and that his orders for grafted 

 Madame P>ntterfly exceed those for all 

 other \arleties combined. 



Wesley Clark has returned to the S. R. 

 Pennock Co. 



A large basket of flowers ])resented 

 at a recent opening had fastened to it 

 a ladder reaching from the base to the 

 top of the handle to indicate the steps 

 of progress. Yes, the steps were cov- 

 ered with green and garlanded with 

 ilowers.

The Market. 



Tlie market la.st week was in fairly 

 good shape. Stock was in better supply 

 and the demand was good. There was 

 an ovcrsupply of freesias and hyacinths 

 and a decided shortage of short- 

 stemmed roses. The latter may have 

 been occasioned l)y the heavy demand 

 for this grade, as funeral work is the 

 princi]5al item of business. Aside from 

 this, the market was normal on all lines 

 of stock. The better grades of roses 

 ■were in gond sujijjly and the quality was 

 splendid. The bright, sunny days are 

 bringing them in well. Carnations. 

 which were quite plentiful, so much so
