Mention The Review when you write. 



Michell Co., says that early orders for 

 bulbs and orders for late seed, such as 

 turnip, corn and spinach, are making 

 them so busy as to resemble a small-sized 

 spring rush. 



H. Bayersdorfer & Co. have received 

 large importations on the steamer Pisa 

 recently. They have 260 cases on the 

 steamer Marquette, due August 17. 

 Among their latest novelties are pillow 

 doves, the birds being beautifully stuffed, 

 nestling on the piUow. Their electrically 

 prepared fern leaves arranged in baskets 

 and jardinieres are pleasing. 



John Berger has been escorting Mr. 

 Wright, foreman for Stockton & Howe, 

 Princeton, N. J., among the growers, to 

 see just what is what. 



Prank S. Jackson, Thorn Hedge, Pa., 

 has been gladdening the hearts of his 

 friends by his presence in their midst.
