presaioQS of opinion in explanation of 

 the shortage in flowers, late lifting, early 

 cold and snow, the hot weather of a 

 month ago bringing one crop in prema- 

 turely and shortening another, and so on. 

 Edward Eeid puts it briefly, thus : ' * Hot 

 air." 



Leo Niessen reports the arrival jf 

 bronze galaz leaves. 



Robert Scott & Son are sending fine, 

 long-stemmed blooms of their new rose, 

 White Killarney, to S. S. Pennock- 

 Meehan Co. 



M. Eice & Co. have beautiful new 



orchid and violet ribbons in the flower 

 colors named. The latter, it is thought, 

 will supplant violet tassels in popular 

 favor. Steamers Palanza and Manitou 

 have brought them additional shipments 

 of Christmas goods. 



The Highland Eose Co. is sending ex- 

 cellent Bride to the Philadelphia Cut 

 Flower Co. 



Freeman & Co. will offer the para- 

 phernalia used in the founders* week 

 banquet at public sale this week. 



The shortage in My Maryland rose in 

 the cut flower market points to heavy 



advance orders for young stock of this 

 variety. 



H. Bayersdorfer & Co. are making a 

 specialty of metal holly wreaths of their 

 own make. 



Alfred M. Campbell is handling some 

 nice Major Bonnaffon chrysanthemums, a 

 variety popular in this market. 



The demand for ferns, decorative and 

 blooming plants has taken on new life 

 the past week. 



A local daily interviewed Eobert Eaft 

 on his novelty: 



GLOBES OF BERRIES. 

 Florists are now offering little globes to go 

 over electric bulbs made of crimson partridge 

 berries. They last exceedingly well, are not 

 expensive, and give a charming touch to a room. 

 They are just what one wants for the table and 

 the room on Thanksgiving and on Christmas day. 



It is all right, but a trifle mixed. 



Frank McMahon, of Seabright, N. J., 

 was in town last week. 



Casher and George L. Pennock, Lans- 

 downe, Pa., are sending fine valley to 

 Edward Eeid. 



John A. Shellem is much pleased with 

 the way his rose, "William E. Smith, is 

 doing at New Castle, Ind. 



John Stephenson, of Oak Lane, con- 

 tinues to send superb Mrs. Jardine to W. 

 E. McKissick & Bros.
