The monthly meeting of the Penn- 

 sylvania Horticultural Society was held 

 February 20 in Horticultural hall. 



Edward Eoss is showing his versa- 

 tility by producing some fine orchids at 

 the Floracroft Greenhouses of Walter 

 P. Stokes. 



The street merchants reappeared in 

 force February 17. They seemingly did 

 a thriving business, and incidentally 

 cleaned up the odds and ends. 



Joseph Beavis & Son are cutting fine 

 White Killarney. 



Stokes ' Seed Store has donned festal 

 green. 



J. J. Habermehl 's Sons filled burnt 

 birch bark hampers with orchids for 

 St. Valentine's day specialties. They 

 made a most attractive gift. 



In Eobcrt Kift's window February 14 

 were seen gold baskets filled with com- 

 binations of primroses and pussy-wil- 

 lows, primroses and yellow daisies, daf- 

 fodils and daisies. 



The Century Flower Shop had a pink 

 window iu honor of St. Valentine. Pink 

 azaleas in Porto Rican mats of the 

 same color were banked effectively in 

 tm window and also decorated the 

 store. 



Charles F. Krueger, at the Reading 

 Terminal, had a card novelty last week. 

 On it were a row of cats, with pussy- 

 willow backs, appropriate verse and cal- 

 endar. Old-fashioned bouquets of Mary- 

 land roses were featured for St. Valen- 

 tine's day. 



Princeton has been blooming steadily 

 from Thanksgiving until Lent. 



The outgoing stream of flowers is as 

 large as the incoming at Edward Raid's.

CINCINNATI. 



The Gateway to the South. 



The market continues in an easy con- 

 dition. Receipts in most lines are large 

 and the volume of sales using up this 

 stock is good. Xaturally, in an easy mar- 

 ket, prices have as a whole shaded slight- 

 ly since the last report. Shipping busi- 

 ness is good. Valentine 's day business 

 was large and satisfactory to all. The 

 opening day of this week, due to a 

 general replenishing by retailers, start- 

 ed with a rush that used up almost 

 everything. 



Eoses are still conspicuous by their 

 scarcit}'. A good crop of Bride and 

 Maid has been helping, but they can- 



not make up for the deficiency in Kil- 

 larnej's. Beauties are in adequate sup- 

 ply and their quality is, as a whole, 

 again all that can be desired. The 

 carnation supply is large and although 

 the sales are good the line is crowded. 

 The most calls are for white and En- 

 chantress. The receipts of bulbous 

 stock continue to increase. The mar- 

 ket, while fair, is not all the growers 

 would like. Easter lilies and callas are 

 again easier, but these are proving good 

 property. Of sweet peas the supply has 

 increased along with the rest and clean 

 sales are not as regular as they were. 

 In violets, valley and orchids, offerings 

 since Valentine's day have been only 

 moderate and sales fair. 



Greens are easily sufficient for re-
