EBIE, PA. 



The B&rket. 



This has been a wet week, with 

 falls of both rain and snow. Choice 

 flowers are plentiful and in great de- 

 mand. Chrysanthemums are still at- 

 tracting the most attention and are in 

 evidence everywhere. Lorraine be- 

 gonias are making an attractive show- 

 ing as potted plants. 



Various Notes. 



The Baur Floral Co. held its annual 

 chrysanthemum show last week. The 

 large, beautiful blooms were much ad- 

 mired. The exhibition was largely at- 

 tended. 



Mrs. Daniel Offerle, of "Warren, Pa., 

 has returned to her home, after spend- 

 ing the last four weeks with her daugh- 

 ter in this city. 



J. T. Cokely, of the Scranton Florist 

 Supply Co., and H. Bayersdorfer, of 

 Philadelphia, were in Erie on business 

 last week. B. P. 



LONGFMEADOW, B. I. 



William C. Pratt & Son, proprietors 

 of the Maplehurst Greenhouses, with a 

 farm and dairy in connection, are just 

 completing a new 3-apartment green- 

 house, 28x123, fitted up with a new 

 boiler and ventilating apparatus from 

 the Lord & Burnham Co. They have 

 carnations, sweet peas, pansies, toma- 

 toes, lettuce and eauliflower already in 

 the house, and expect to grow some 

 cucumbers during the winter. They 

 will use the old greenhouse for a start- 

 ing house for spring bedding plants, of 

 which they make a specialty. They 

 have about finished marketing their 

 mums. E. A. Mallette, for several 

 years the florist at Bhode Island Col- 

 lege, Kingston, B. I., has been with 

 Pratt & Son since October 1, as florist 

 and general manager of the green- 

 houses. The firm has its own herd of 

 cows, and in that way has a good sup- 

 ply of fertilizer for the compost. The 

 milk and cream are sold locally. 



Hartford, Wis. — F. Rhodes is succes- 

 sor to C. B. Tremain. 



Decatur, HI. — During the cold wave 

 of November 12 to 13, one of the boil- 

 ers at the greenhouses of Daut Bros, 

 suddenly yrent out of commission. 

 Philip Daut went to the John C. Mon- 

 ing Co., Chicago, and there purchased 

 another boiler, which was shipped and 

 installed without loss of time and is 

 working finely. The storm broke a few 

 panes of glass at Daut Bros.' place 

 November 12. Several hundred lights 

 were also smashed by hail at John Bom- 

 'mersbach's houses on the same date.
