WAYSIDE NOTES. 



W. H. Head, superintendent of the 

 Plant estate at New London, Conn., has 

 kept a force of men and teams busy re- 

 moving large specimen trees from Nor- 

 wich, twenty miles distant. Each tree 

 requires a team of eight horses to draw 

 it. At the time of my visit a splendid 

 purple beech, measuring fifty feet in 

 height and three feet in diameter, was 

 being planted. 



E. W. Clark, of New London, says he 

 cannot remember when roses were so 

 scarce and poor as they have been of 

 late. Carnations are fair. Business is 

 brisk. A big job at the opening of a 

 handsome Elks' room called for all the 

 roses he coul^ pick up. 



Felix G. Mense, of Glen Cove, N. Y,, 

 met with a serious accident when re- 

 turning from the New York Florists' 

 Club with the specimen plant of a dwarf 

 and compact form of Salvia splendens, 

 which makes a fine pot plant and can be 

 brought into bloom at Christmas. With 

 a certificate of merit in his pocket, Mr. 

 Mense was alighting from the train, 

 which jolted, causing him to let the plant 

 fall, breaking the bones of two Hoes of 

 his right foot, which will make him a 

 cripple for some time. 



Ira G. Marvin has built a handsome 

 store adjoining the opera house, at 

 Wilkes Barre, Pa. Being forced to vacate 

 his old stand he had an opportunity to 

 build and has a thoroughly up-to-date 

 place. Eldridge & Co., who formerly oc- 

 cupied this location, moved into a con- 

 venient place on Main street. 



W. L. Carr, at Kingston, Pa., is pre- 

 paring a big line of bedding stock, which 

 is a feature with him. 



George R. Clark & Co., of Scranton, 

 Pa., do as big business as ever at their 

 store, buying all stock from out of town. 

 For years they have had the seed trade 

 of the town and, being a poultry fan- 

 cier, Mr. Clark has added a line of poul- 

 try supplies. 



Marvin & Muir, also of Scranton, re- 

 port a busy season for funeral work, a 

 specialty with them. 



S. J. Beuter, of Westerly, R. I., is 

 just getting over a severe attack of the 

 grip which seized him while at Toronto, 

 attending the convention, hastening his

return before lie had finished his round 

 of calls. He was much impressed with 

 the Dale and Dunlop plants and intended 

 paying Mr. Gammage a visit, expecting 

 to see a representative range of plant 

 houses. Mr. Beuter says the trip more 

 than repaid him. He met there Alex- 

 ander Miller, formerly of the Rhode Is- 

 land Greenhouses and now manager of 

 the Green Floral Co., Dallas, Tex. He is 

 full of praise of the sunny south and 

 predicts a great future for the business 

 there. W. M.
