ers have since attracted attention in 

 other centers. 



On Monday, August 1, Mr. Curran 

 commenced work as manager of the 

 immense range of glarfs owned and oper- 

 ated by the Florex Gardens, at North 

 Wales, Pa. The undertaking will be one 

 of more than ordinary difficulty, as 

 those familiar with the size of the plant 

 will readily admit. It is comparatively 

 easy to produce results from a range of 

 moderate size, but it takes ability to 

 produce the same results from so vast 

 a range as that at North Wales. Florists 

 generally will agree that Mr. Fuers- 

 tenberg has secured an able grower and 

 wish him success in the splendid field 

 ofiEered for his energies. 



Various Notes. 



Frank Johnson, of the A. L. Eandall 

 Co., Chicago, favored the Rising East- 

 ern Market with a visit a few days ago. 



Samuel F. Lilley is gradually getting 



settled in his new quarter? at 5 Mole 

 street, where he has increased space and 

 improved light. Mole street lies be- 

 tween Market and Ranstead, also Fif- 

 teenth and Sixteenth streets 



Miss Getz, of Westman & Getz, Cleve- 

 land, has been in the city. 



M. Rice & Co. are importing quanti- 

 ties of choice prepared fern in antici- 

 pation of further revival in this branch 

 of supplies. 



A Saturday afternoon boom in the 

 real estate market at West Philadelphia 

 had a beneficial effect on Robert Craig, 

 who is, I am happy to say, better. 



A. Littman, of Atlantic City, has a 

 store full of many colored waving 

 plumes and foliage that give his place a 

 thoroughly seashorely appearance. 



Israel Rosnosky has returned from 

 the Carolinas. 



F. J. Michell and F. .T. Michell, Jr., 

 have been spending a few days at At- 

 lantic City. 



David Rust has sprained his ankle 

 playing cricket. 



The sheriflP sold the Mergenthaler 

 greenhouses August 1. They were bid 

 in by the holder of the second mortgage. 



Joseph G. Neidinger has added an en- 

 tire story, the third, to his building. 

 This will be used as a warehouse, giv- 

 ing opportunity for much needed devel- 

 opment, the business having outgrown 

 its present quarters. 



The Keller Pottery Co. reports an ex- 

 cellent season, better than the previous 

 year. A new 8-inch press followed 

 the new automobile delivery truck, a 

 marked improvement. This truck, by 

 the way, carries more than two two- 

 horse wagon loads of pots and pleases 



the customers by its speed in "getting 

 there. ' ' phil. 



Godfrey Aschmann is preparing for 

 a trip to Europe, primarily for the pur- 

 pose of inspecting stocks of azaleas and 

 other specialties he imports so largely 

 each autumn.
