 CHRISTMAS SPECIALTIES 



Porto RIcan Mats have become a staple since we intro- 

 duced this splendid article to the trade. We are the world's 

 largest importers of these goods and can supply you with 

 mats in cheerful Christmas red, all desired colors. 



Chiffon Mats in all colors for covering pots or for use as 

 window rugs and table covers for plant stands. 



Accordion Plaited Crepe Paper comes 30 inches wide and 

 8 feet long. It can be eflfectively adjusted around plants or 

 fern boxes and can be used as a doily for table decorations 

 by forming a circle and standing a vase in center of same. 



Single Crepe Paper Pot Covers with Bottom come in all 

 colors and fit any size pot from 5 in. to 9 in. Just the thing 

 for coverings, as they are very cheap and can be thrown 

 away afterward. 



Waterproof Crepe Paper in all colors; does not droop; you 

 may sprinkle the plant and not have to re-cover the pot. 



Waterproof Crepe Pot Covers are handy money and time 

 savers. 



Polnsettlas. The kind that are all velvet, perfectly shaped, 

 with the good red color. With foliage and without foliage. 



Bon Ton Babv Ribbon or RIbbonzene is crinkled, and is 

 quite effective for tying your cards on boxes. The spools 

 contain 250 and 500 yards each. Red Ribbonzene is just what 

 you need now. 



Silk Fiber Ribbon is a strong ribbon, extensively used for 

 around mats, paper pot covers, cut flower boxes. It has a 

 true silk luster and makes a very rich bow. 



Wood Fiber Chip Ribbon can be had in all colors. The red 

 is most adaptable for bows on your Christmas baskets and 

 hampers. 



Florists' Tying Tape of the new kind, to tie up your many 

 boxes. The best of its kind ever introduced; is surely worth 

 a trial. Send for the Xmas red. 



FOR ANYTHING that you may not find here we refer you

is left undone when it ought to be 

 done. The system of growing is that 

 practiced by most ot the first-class rosa- 

 rians of the day, the flowering of an 

 entire crop on a given number of plants 

 at once. The Killarneys that have been 

 coming from this place into the Phila- 

 delphia market give promise of being 

 in the front rank this season; last sea- 

 son they were unsurpassed. 



A New Art Basket. 



Paul Berkowitz sent a young man 

 upstairs expressly to get some new 

 baskets . that had particularly pleased 

 him. ' ' These are new art baskets, ' ' 

 Mr. Berkowitz said. "I want you to 

 notice their beautiful ivory finish. They 

 are of fine rattan, ornamented with gar- 

 lands, a new basket that is sure to 

 attract attention. ' ' In reply to a ques- 

 tion Mr. Berkowitz said that Mr, 

 Bayersdorfe'r had imported these bas- 

 kets from abroad. They are round, or 

 nearly so, of moderate depth, with 

 rather short handles, and are quaint 

 and pleasing. 



Various Notes. 



Bobert Craig Co. reports an excellent 

 demand for Christmas plants, already 

 ahead of last year — the record year. 

 The supply is so large that they hope 

 to satisfy late orders. 



M, Eice & Co. report many night 

 letter telegram orders arriving each 

 morning last week. Their visitors in- 

 clude: Mr. Barker, Ti>enton; G. H. Hos- 

 kins, Reading; Mr. Schroyer, Allentown. 



Charles F. Edgar has commenced 

 work with Pennock Bros. 



The annual meeting of the German- 

 town Horticultural Society was held 

 December 11. The treasurer's report 

 showed a satisfactory balance. The 

 active membership is about 100, with 

 fully as many members on the eleeiposy- 

 nary list. The following officers were re- 

 elected: Edwin C. Jellett, president; 

 J. P. Willetts, Herman Burgen, Steward- 

 son Brown, vice-presidents; George 

 Bedeles, secretary and treasurer. The 

 secretary gave an interesting talk on 

 lioftse plants, in his usual happy vein. 



The Henry A. Dreer store was deco- 

 rated with some fine palms and ferns 

 from the Riverton houses December 12.
