good judges look for a turn in the mar- 

 ket ere long; some hope for it this 

 week, but the only encouraging fact 

 is the demand for green. Asparagus 

 plumosus sprays are actually scarce, 

 which reflects somewhat on smilax and 

 on tender and hardy ferns. 



The Easter market report last week 

 should have read "Red and yellow 

 roses were in demand. ' ' This was due 

 to a rather short supply in red roses, 

 always popular at Easter, in striking 

 contrast to red carnations. Yellow 

 roses were largely used for corsage 

 bunches. The supply was better than 

 of red, but it was hardly equal to the 

 demand. 



The National Flower Show. 



Adolph Farenwald is steadily getting 

 things into shape for the preliminary 

 work on the national flower show to be 

 held here next spring. Convention hall, 

 at Broad street and Allegheny avenue, 

 has been engaged for the show. Ar- 

 rangements have been made for heating 

 the large building with steam boilers. 

 Space in the hall will be offered to 

 intending exhibitors at $1 per square 



foot. Applications for space may be 

 made to Secretary Arthur A. Niessen, 

 Twelfth and Race streets. The first 

 meeting of the chairmen of the various 

 committees was held at Horticultural 

 hall April 14. 



Various Notes. 



Macaw Bros, are erecting a new 

 greenhouse 34x150 feet, Lord & Burn- 

 ham material, on their place at Nor- 

 wood, Pa. It is understood that this 

 house is intended for ferns of the Bos- 

 ton type, with which the firm has been 

 exceptionally successful. 



Alexander Haig, for ten years on and" 

 off an employee of the S. S. Pennock- 

 Meehan Co., died April 8. Mr. Haig, 

 who had charge of the rose sorting for 

 his company, was 35 years of age. The 

 funeral took place April 12. 



Robert A. Craig is confined to the 

 house by a painful though, it is thought, 

 not serions attack of illness. His 

 friends hope he will soon be entirely 

 well again. 



Goeller Bros., of Trenton, N. J., and 

 Charles Vorkeller, of South Bethlehem, 

 Pa., were recent visitors. 



Paul Berkowitz puts a cheerful light 

 on the well filled houses of blooming 

 plants near the cemeteries by saying 

 that people will be going out there this 

 fine weather and soon many of the 

 plants will be sold. 



The seed stores are lively places now. 



Arthur Zirkman is in town. 



Joseph G. Neidinger has originated 

 a two-tone wax rose that is true to na- 

 ture. Formerly these roses came in 

 single colors. Mr. Neidinger has per- 

 fected a half dozen pleasing combina- 

 tions with two colors in each, such as 

 are seen in Killarney or in Sunburst. 



John P. Habermehl says that Easter 

 was satisfactory at all his firm's stores. 

 Business since then has been quiet, 

 save for some decorations that have 

 required all of the few left-over bloom- 

 ing plants to brighten the green of fern 

 and foliage.
