rot, perched on an upright stick to put 

 in a pot or on a ring to put on a basket. 

 The claim of these parrots lies in their 

 minuteness and in their highly colored 

 feathers. The modesty of the designer 

 of these two novelties will not admit of 

 his name being mentioned, but he is 

 willing to have it known that the bas- 

 kets arc going like hot cakes. 



Various Notes. 



J. Hampton Moore, mayor of Phila- 

 delphia, will, D. v., address the Florists' 

 Club, Tuesday evening, June 6. 



The garden and wonderful green- 

 house, of Pierre S. Dupont, at Menden- 

 hall, were open to the friends of the 

 Women's Horticultural College at Am- 

 bler, Saturday, May 13. 



Charles W. Moorby announces the 

 opening of his new store at 5420 Ger- 

 mantown avenue. 



Paul Bcrkowitz says the demand for 

 artificial white carnations for Mothers' 

 day was heavy. 



William Bergcr's Sons found Moth- 

 ers' day good indeed. When people 

 found roses less expensive, they often 

 took them instead of carnations. 



Frank P. Meyer says the tractor has 

 saved three times its cost in emptying 

 and filling the greenhouses. The cable 

 is necessary at both ends, as it is just 

 as important to hold the heavy train 

 of cars back on the down grade, as it is 

 to pull it on the up grade or turn. 



Mrs. Swisher, of Fifty-second street 

 and Grand avenue, had her delivery car 

 smashed and chauffeur injured in an 

 accident. 



Herbert S. Bell has resigned his posi- 

 tion with J. J. Habermehl's Sons, at 

 Twenty-second and Diamond streets. 



The Charles F. Krueger Co. thought 

 roses a better seller than carnations for 

 Mothers' day. The manager, Frank X. 

 Aller, displayed roses and only bought 

 enough carnations for advance orders. 

 The result was satisfactory. 



H. H. Battles sailed for JRiirope Satur- 

 day, May 13. 



Joseph G. Neidinger has returned 

 from abroad. Phil.

Horticultural Society. 



The regular meeting of the Newport 

 Horticultural Society, held Tuesday 

 • evening, May 9, was an unusually busy 

 one through the discussion of plans for 

 the annual Juno exhibition. The pre- 

 mium lists for that event were pre- 

 sented and the increased number of 

 classes and awards offered promise a 

 much larger show than in several years. 

 The exhibition committee reported that 

 the interest that is being manifested 

 in next month's exhibition, and the 

 number who have signified their inten- 

 tion of participating, indicated an ex- 

 liibition that would be well worth 

 while. 



William C. Lynch, manager of the 

 Philadelphia Growers' Cut Flower Co., 

 is rapidly recovering from an automo- 

 bile accident, which occurred near Bus- 

 tleton a few days ago. 



Robert M. Franks is now manager of 

 the uptown establishment of J. J. 

 Habermehl 's Wons. 



A committee of three, consisting of 

 Richard Gardner, William Gray and 

 Bruce Buttcrton, was appointed to se- 

 cnre a suitable place in which to hold 

 the exhibition, it having been decided 

 not to li.'ne the shows at the Boaeh nn-
