We Should Worry 



You need not worry if Immor- 

 tellescostf 1.00 per bunch. Neidiacer's 

 Original Japanese Frieze Chenille is a 



substitute that can be used in place 

 of Immortelles without the substitu- 

 tion being noticed. 



This is one of the many NcidinKcr 

 Useful Orisinalities. The enormous in- 

 crease in the price of Immortelles 

 put Neidiifer on the lookout for a 

 substitute and here it is.

bon-like borders of alternantheras hang 

 in graceful festoons down the grassy 

 banks. The borders of centaurea, with 

 its silvery splendor, and of the darker 

 achyranthes serve as a setting for the 

 luster of these really magnificent can- 

 nas, that are interspersed here and 

 there with rich beds of crotons, gera- 

 niums and just one striking bed of the 

 variegated Abutilon Thompsoni. I 

 really think that the canna is the great- 

 est introduction that has been made 

 at Horticultural hall, an introduction 

 worthy of the company of the cactus 

 and of the croton, destined, it may be, 

 to surpass either in the scope of its 

 usefulness. 



Various Notes. 



H. Bayersdorfer & Co. report the 

 receipt of 366 cases of immortelles by 

 the steamer Menominie this week. Mr. 

 Bayersdorfer says that every immor- 

 telle order will be filled. 



The annual fall show of the Penn- 

 sylvania Horticultural Society will be 

 held in Horticultural hall next week. 



It opens on Tuesday, November 4, at 

 8 p. m. and closes on Friday, November 

 7, at 10 p. m. All exhibits should 

 reach the hall in time to be staged be- 

 fore 2 p. m. on the opening day. 



W. A. Saltford, Poughkeepsie, N. Y., 

 and "William H. Vance, Wilmington, 

 Del., were in town recently. 



Frank P. Gaul assumed his duties as 

 manager of the Washington branch of 

 the S. S. Pennock-Meehan Co., October 

 28. 



Joseph G. Neidinger expects ship- 

 ments of Japanese red frieze chenille 

 on two steamers now. Mr. Neidinger 

 considers this chenille a splendid sub- 

 stitute for immortelles. 



William J. Baker is receiving a 

 choice selection of well grown and rare 

 chrysanthemums: Eamapo, clear yel- 

 low; Smith's Sensation, pink; Mrs. 

 Hurley, bronze; Christy Mathewson, 

 white; J. Franklyn Baker, a magnifi- 

 cent white. 



Arthur Zirkman has returned from 

 a successful western tifp for the M. 

 Rice Co. Mr. Zirkman spoke of the 



prosperous conditions in the west, and 

 of tbe New York retailer of renown 

 who came over just to see them, got 

 things that he couldn't get elsewhere, 

 and straightway returned to Gotham. 



Charles Pappes is one of our most 

 enterprising flower merchants. He now 

 controls four neatly fitted up flower 

 stands in the Pennsylvania Eailroad 

 station, three at Broad street and on© 

 in West Philadelphia. 



James McClain's name was inad- 

 vertently omitted from the Panama 

 party described last week. The menu 

 cards, by the way, were reminders of 

 the Panama railway. 



The Eobert Craig Co. is specializing 

 on some choice semi-double and pom- 

 pon chrysanthemums in pots, Garza, 

 Quinola, Mrs. Frank Beu and Allen- 

 town. 



Louis Berger is well again, I am 

 glad to say. 



Jaclf: Neidinger has returned from 

 a successful western trip.
