Samuel F, Lilley, the well known 

 wholesale florist of this city, has pur- 

 chased a farm at Churchville, near 

 Doylestown, Pa. Mr. Lilley has long 

 desired to be a farmer and may even 

 grow a few flowers under glass, just to 

 show the growers what ho can do. Of

 from the cares of business

 ketmakers help harvest the crops in 

 the field, making it difficult to obtain 

 baskets at that time."

 business.
