manic, speaks cheerfully of a pleasant 

 voyage. 



William Swayne, of Kennett Square, 

 was in the city July 27. 



M. Eice & Co. are receiving their fall 

 importations on all the incoming steam- 

 ers. They promise some good things for 

 the trade. They have, also, some ex- 

 cellent goods of home production. 



Robert A. Craig says that his com- 

 pany is well pleased with the demand for 

 young plants of chrysanthemums and car- 

 nations. The crotons, highly colored for 

 the season, and pandurata are looking 

 well. 



The Henry F. Michell Co. will exhibit 

 a novelty at the coming convention at 

 Niagara Falls in the shape of an elec- 

 tric thermostat thermometer that is said 

 to be far more reliable than the old 

 method of having a bell attached to a 

 thermostat. Mr. Rosnosky believes that 

 this device will be appreciated when 

 seen. 



A pictorial postal card received in 

 this city from Emil H. Geschick, sends 

 greetings to his friends here from Leip- 

 sic. 



H. Bayersdorfer & Co. are receiving 

 many interesting novelties from over the 

 water that they will show at the Niagara 

 Falls convention. One of these is a 

 clever imitation of an air ship, designed 

 for use at the coming banquet of the 

 Aerial Clubs now forming all over the 

 country. 



Walter P. Stokes believes that while 

 the acreage of potatoes is larger in this 

 section than ever before, the recent 

 drought will prevent the crop exceed- 

 ing that of former years to any marked 

 degree. 



Samuel S. Pennock has improved his 

 water lily plants by adding a wire 

 screen that prevents the flowers lying in 

 water, it being found that without the 

 screen the flowers often floated head 

 downward, which never occurs when on 

 the plant. 



David Fuerstenberg, president of the 

 Florex Gardens and of the Floral Ex- 

 change, is enjoying the sea breezes of 

 Atlantic City. 



When asked why Lilium Harrisii 7x9 

 are offered as low as $80 per thousand, 

 when they are scarce, Philip Freud

THE Florists' Supply House of America 



OUR NEW 



COMBINATION WREATHS 



They are made of ruscus and magnolia foliage, 

 with pine burs and cycas leaves added for 

 effect. This combination is very rich, the 

 bronze magnoUa leaves giving an autumn tint 

 to the whole wreath. 



STEEL GRAY WREATHS 



Steel gray is the color in Germany today, just as we are the 

 florists' supply house in America. We offer Magnolia Wreaths 

 in steel gray, which we think will prove very popular.

smiled genially and murmured "hy- 

 brids," by which he was understood to 

 mean that you might get a mixture if 

 you were not vej^y careful. 



Eugene Bernheimer says that the 

 Florex Gardens have the extensions to 

 the two carnation houses completed and 

 planted with carnations. These plants 

 have all been bench grown, close togeth- 

 er, and are now given their proper dis- 

 tance for the coming season. One sec- 



tion of one of these smaller houses is 

 planted with American Beauties, the 

 idea being to propagate in this section 

 largely from the plants now in it, a 

 different section being used for carna- 

 tion propagation. Mr. Bernheimer adds 

 that the same varieties will be grown 

 next season as were grown last year, 

 namely, Winsor, Enchantress, Beacon, 

 Boston Market and Queen.
