 tiana. It was an upright design, stand- 

 m perhaps three and a half feet high. 

 The speaker was Joseph G. Neidinger 

 and the change in the situation lies in 

 the fact that American-made stock is 

 now ready to replace the European. ' ' We 

 nave a large force at work making these 

 goods," Mr. Neidinger continued, "and 

 |n addition we have reliable information 

 that some of our European stock has 

 oeen shipped from Germany through a 

 neutral port. It should arrive within 

 two weeks."

 ■ ''''yersdorfer & Co. have received 



a large importation of goods from Ger- 

 many. Mr. Bayersdorfer finds the ex- 

 cess of freight charges due to war con- 

 ditions quite annoying, as his customers 

 do not seem to realize that such expense 

 cannot be avoided at this time. 



The Henry F. Michell Co. will hold a 

 dahlia show on the Million Dollar pier, 

 Atlantic City, October 1 to 3. A hand- 

 some decoration will be made, using 

 palms and foliage, with 500 vases of 

 dahlias, to be further augmented by 

 perennials. H. F. Michell II will as- 

 sist Philip Freud in arranging the ex- 

 hibit. 



Edward Reid is not prepared to an- 

 nounce the speaker for the Florists' 

 Club's meeting October 6, but promises 

 that no effort will be spared to have a 

 good practical talk from someone of 

 ability. 



J. A. Smith was one of the judges at 

 the Merchantville flower show Septem- 

 ber 25. 



William P. Craig returned from the 

 west and the middle southwest Septem- 

 ber 28. Mr. Craig says that in several 

 cities, notably Louisville, in front of 

 many barber shops, ice cream parlors 

 and other stores were bales of cotton. 

 In the window was a sign, "We have 

 bought our bale of cotton; have you?" 

 He says it indicates a widespread effort 



to relieve the cotton growers. Mr. Craig 

 left for the south Atlantic seaboard Sep- 

 tember 29. 



Fred Cowperthwaite judged the Rid- 

 ley Park flower show September 25. 



The Philadelphia Cut Flower Co. an- 

 nounced the arrival of the first violets 

 of the season. 



Lord & Burnham Co. will erect two 

 greenhouses 28x100 feet each for the 

 Henry F. Michell Co., at Andalusia, Pa. 

 This will make twelve houses in all, 

 three of 120 feet, seven of 100 feet and 

 two fifty-seven feet in length. 



William J. Baker is receiving Golden 

 Glow and Smith's Advance chrysanthe- 

 mums, choice pink, white and yellow

Philip Freud announces that a hand- 

 some dahlia show will be held at Gim- 

 bel's October 6 to 8, which he has con- 

 tracted to manage. 



J. J. Habermehl's Sons have had a 

 fair amount of melancholy work during 

 the last week. Entertaining has not yet 

 begun in earnest. 



A 5-cent store on Market street has 

 been selling flowers as an advertisement. 



Verona & Steinhoff expect to increase 

 their floor space in Snellingburg's. 



George Carpenter has a promising lot
