THE FLORISTS' SUPPLY HOUSE OF AMERICA 



HIGH HATS 



FOR ST. PATRICK'S DAY 



are something entirely new that will attract instant attention when filled with Iiish Shamrock. 



They make a combiDation simply irresistible. 



Telegraph, telephone and mail orders should be sent promptly. Don't order too few; this is a good thing, worth pnshing. 



H. BAYERSDORFER & CO., 1129 Arch Street, PHILADELPHIA 



A. N. Pierson spoke of his intention 

 of building a greenhouse 112 feet wide. 

 Mr. Fuerstenberg considers this as an 

 indication that the wide house is gain- 

 ing in favor with large growers. It is 

 well known that Mr. Fuerstenberg is 

 the foremost exponent of the wide 

 house. 



Frederick J. Michell believes that 

 the high price of many vegetable seeds, 

 due to short crop, will be an advantage 

 rather than a detriment to the market. 

 The advances are not sufficient to dis- 

 courage any but those who grow in 

 immense quantities, for canning, for 

 instance, from sowing their usual quan- 

 tities of seed. 



H. Bayersdorfer & Co. report St. Val- 

 entine 's day business as far exceeding 

 that of previous years. 



John Wilson, who has been ill, is 

 again at his post. 



Berger Bros, are pleased with the 



location of their new store, it is so 



; easily reached from all sections of the 



■ city, as well as from out of town. 



' William Swayne has returned from 



Florida. 



William J. Baker, it is pleasant to 

 tell, is out again after over a month's 

 detention from his accident. 



M. Henry Lynch says the Dingee & 

 Conard Co., West Grove, is rapidly re- 

 covering from the loss by fire, which 

 was not nearly so serious as it might 

 have been. The ends of the damaged 

 houses are closed in and work on the 

 heating plant ie^ progretMung.

The Market.' 



The naarket is again well stocked in 

 most lines. The opening day for this 

 week showed a considerable quantity 

 of blooms that had been held over from 

 the close of last week's business. The 

 general demand has, as a whole, re- 

 mained steady. The superfluity if 

 cau80€slCf--'^^^ gradual imtire^Be in i£4 

 iAflux of stock. Prices, while easier, 

 have remained fairly 'steady. The out- 

 of-town customers utilize many flowers 

 and much green. 



Roses of all kinds are still short of 

 the call for them and as a result they 

 clean up at *si*ght alilioSt every day. 

 This shortage has held up the price on 

 other stock, particularly carnations, 

 which are again plentiful ; in fact, more 

 than plentiful. The dark colors accu- 

 mulate most rapidly. The white clean

 of cut flowers and plants. Stock-
