as well as fifteen boxes of fancy tapes 

 and a quantity of colored mats, for put- 

 ting around flower pots. 



Enomoto & Co. report a steady de- 

 mand for helichryaum, which the firm 

 is growing extensively. It is shipping 

 asters. Mr. Enomoto expects a large 

 shipment of colored mats and frieze 

 about August 1 from Japan. 



The Growers' Cut Flower Co. is pay- 

 ing special attention to growing a feath- 

 ery-looking straw of the statice family, 

 which looks like gypsophila, but is 

 larger and more luxuriant. 



The California Floral Co. is showing 

 some deep orange poppies, of an un- 

 usual shade, which one of its growers is 

 sending in. 



Frank D. Pelicano, of Pelicano, Rossi 

 & Co., continues to show cut flowers of 

 new dahlia seedlings in the store Win- 

 dow. He has one coming on that he 

 thinks will break his previous records 

 for size and luxuriance. 



Three handsome dahlias, all new and 

 unnamed, are being displayed in the 

 windows of the Charles C. Navlet Co., 

 Inc. L.- Pichetti, the manager of the 

 store, says none of these bulbs is for 

 sale, but the Black Pearl, a seedling 

 from the Fenton Farm, is selling, 

 despite its high price.

 Florist, is enjoying a vacation at

The Market. 



Newark florists are doing an average 

 summer business. Gladioli are about the 

 only flovrcrs now abundant enough and 

 reasonable enough in price for warm 

 weather window decoration. Ferns and 

 other potted plants are used to fill up 

 the window exhibits. Growers are get- 

 ting their mums in good shape for fall. 

 Indications are that these will be a 

 satisfactory crop. 



Various Notes. 



Frank Philips, of Philips Bros., has 

 returned from a mouth's vacation spent 

 at North Asbury, N. J. He spent much 

 of his time fishing. Besides a number 

 of smaller fish, he caught a 15-pound 

 bass. Ho also caught another and 

 larger fish, but he lost it. Fred Phil- 

 ips, also of the firm, will spend August 

 at North Asbury. He is an ardent fish- 

 erman and will try to catch the big 

 fish his brother lost. 



F. A. Kuehn, 621 Central avenue, 

 Newark, reports business quiet at the

 You can't get anything better no matter how much 

 more you oay. The ingredients are of the purest; 

 weighs but 10 pounds to the gallon. 

 With the scarcity of coal and its high prices, the 

 careful application of Asbestfalt will more than pay 

 for itself by keeping your greenhouse air-tight.
