ed it to Mrs. C. with the same remark. 

 Mrs. C. handed it over to Mrs. D. and 

 Mrs. D. returned it to Mrs. A., from 

 whom it started. Four bills were paid 

 and still Mrs. A. had her dollar. Sup- 

 pose Mrs. A. had thought that, on ac- 

 count of hard times, she should sus- 

 pend payment. Four persons would have 

 been dunning each other and each 

 thinking times were hard. Mrs. A. 

 would have simply prevented her own 

 payment by refusing to pay her just 

 debt when she had the money." 



Mr. Meehan to Retire. 



An amicable arrangement has been 

 perfected by which Charles E. Meehan 

 retires July 1 from the Pennock-Meehan

Variovis Notes. 



J. Otto Thilow delivered his inter- 

 esting lecture on "The Flora of the 

 Hawaiian Islands" at the University 

 of Pennsylvania for the University 

 Botanical Society, Friday evening, 

 May 18. 



Clarence U. Liggitt, of the Pennock- 

 Meehan Co., says that the late planting- 

 out season, caused by the cool weather, 

 has greatly affected the demand for 

 geraniums and other bedding plants. 

 Mr. Liggitt thinks, now that warmer 

 weather has come, there will be an im- 

 provement. 



Hugo Kind has by conscientious, per- 

 severing work become one of the lead- 

 ing dahlia growers of Hammonton, N. J. 



The King Construction Co. has built a 

 concrete glass-covered structure for 

 sun-drying garbage near a leading west- 

 ern city, which, if successful, may prove 

 a great boon for the greenhouse build- 

 ing industry. 



Edward Reid reports out-of-town 

 shipping demand as being brisk. 



Sydney H. Bayersdorfer says that the 

 temporary lull of a week ago has been 

 followed by a tremendous rush of Deco- 

 ration day orders. 



The Leo Niessen Co. will have Span- 

 ish irises in variety for Memorial day. 



John Burton has a pretty bed of lily 

 of the valley planted in front of his 

 home at Wyndmoor. 



Berger Bros, are confident that there 

 will be no tremendous oversupply of 

 flowers this month. 



Flowers were an important feature of

The Maxket. 



A week of clear skies and higher tem- 

 perature brought about a decided 

 change in the flower market. Supplies 

 of all kinds increased materially and 

 prices declined in like ratio. The de- 

 mand has not been at all robust, and 

 clearances are made only at lower 

 prices. Roses, everything considered.

have held up well, and, with one or two 

 really hot days, which hate been much 

 delayed this season, the quality of roses 

 continues exceptionally good. Ward, 

 Dark Pink Killarney, Hadley, Ophelia, 

 Stanley and Francis Scott Key are extra 

 good. Carnations have taken a decided 

 drop; select flowers now go at $3, while 

 the general run go much lower. Toward 

 the end of this week prices will brace up
