Edward Matthews spoke before the 

 Germantown Horticultural Society -an 

 the library of Vernon park, Monday 

 evening, February 14, 



Forget-me-not is little grown for this 

 market for St. Vulentine's day. There 

 was no demand for it, except for the 

 holiday, and then it was only at a low 

 price. 



Colflesh & Note are providing some 

 extra fine Paper White narcissi. So 

 good are the flowers that the pride has 

 advanced on a falling market. 



J. Otto Thilow delivered an illus- 

 trated lecture on "The South Sea 

 Islands ' ' before the Pennsylvania Hor- 

 ticultural Society, in the New Century 

 club room, Tuesday afternoon, February

 Petersburg, Fla. 



A. Farenwald and E. Farenwald 

 motored from Eoslyn to North "Wales, 

 February 10. They were so much 

 pleased with the greenhouses of the 

 Florex Gardens that they have been ad- 

 vising their friends to go there. 



Sydney H. Bayersdorfer is delighted 

 with the hearty reception given his 

 little " vamps" here. 



George S. Hampton is away on his 

 pre-Easter trip.

 lively as if the workmen were not 

 there.

The Market. 



Many advance orders for St. Valen- 

 tine's day were placed with the retail- 

 ers. Saturday, February 12, buying 

 was heavy. A bright, warm day that 

 seemed like Easter brought out crowds 

 of shoppers and the attractive flower 

 shop windows inspired buying. There 

 was a heavy demand in shipping orders 

 for all stock. "Wholesale houses were 

 cleaned by February 12 of sweet peas, 

 violets, valley and carnations. Roses 

 gave out earlier, as they had been short 

 for several weeks. Red carnations, as 

 usual, were in demand far beyond their 

 supply, but the orders were broad 

 enough to allow substitutions. Cus- 

 tomers were glad to get stock of any 

 kind. Prices were not advanced and 

 therein is probably the reason for such 

 good business. 



Club Publicity Fund, 



The committee selected at the last 

 meeting of the Florists' Club- to visit 

 growers, wholesale and retail florists in 

 the interest of a publicity fund was at 

 work last week and met with the suc- 

 cess that it expected. T. J. Noll, W. J. 

 Barnes, William L. Rock and C. A. 

 Chandler worked together as one com- 

 mittee, instead of dividing their efforts 

 in two committees as had been first 

 planned. The men visited members of 

 the trade in the two Kansas Cities, Ar- 

 gentine, Rosedale and Independence. 

 Instead of the seventy-five per cent of 

 members necessary to pass the measure, 

 they report 100 per cent. The contribu-
