CLEVITLAin).

The Market. 



Stock of all grades is plentiful at 

 this writing, but with a blizzard and 

 the funeral of Otto Leisy, Cleveland's 

 leading brewer, whose death occurred 

 suddenly March 1, stock should become 

 considerably scarcer. 



Various Notes. 



A visit to C. Merkel & Son, Mentor, 

 ()., is always interesting, and doubly 

 so at this season of the year. Their 

 immense stock- of ])ot roses, hydrangeas, 

 azaleas, lilacs, lilies, etc., is coming 

 along nicely and promises well for Eas- 

 ter. They have never had a more per- 

 fect lot of Dorothy Perkins roses and 

 hybrids, and have every reason to feel 

 l)roud of their stock. Their three new 

 houses, built last summer, are full of 

 stock. 



Mr. Hagenburger, of the Carl Hagen- 

 burger Co., across lots from Merkel & 

 Son, is busy at the propagating bench, 

 getting together a large stock of daisies, 

 snapdragons and chrysanthemums. Mr. 

 Hagenburger 's single violets are fine, 

 as also are his carnations. He has 

 several new snapdragons which he will 

 offer to the trade within the year. 



F. C. Bartels has just returned»from a 

 short trip to Richmond and Fort Wayne, 

 Ind., buying carnation cuttings. 



W. .J. Vesey, Jr., of Fort Wayne, Ind., 

 was a recent visitor. F. A. F. 



PITTSBURGH. 



The Market. 



Pittsburgh is now in the midst of a 

 wind storm or blizzard. Last week was 

 the worst of the winter, with the mer- 

 cury hugging the zero mark most of 

 the time. Although the weather condi- 

 tions are so unfavorable, trade has not 

 been bad. There are plenty of all kinds 

 of flowers. But for the prevailing 

 weather, a glut would have been in- 

 •evitable. We have cut lilies out of our 

 repertoire for about two weeks, when 

 the new crop should be in. 



Varioiis Notes. 



De Forest Ludwig still is in the Mer- 

 <?y hospital, but is slightly improved. 



The market is full of bulb, seed and 

 supply salesmen. Some of them are 

 wondering how they are going to get 

 away, as many of the train trips have 

 been annulled on accouftt of the storm.

Perfect Your Garden with 

 Sunlight Double Glass Sash 



While you are thinking about trrowiiiK early plants so as to have 

 early vegetables to eat or to sell, write today for the catalogue or booklet 

 tellinir all about the 



Sunlight Double Glass Sash 



The time to get ready is now. 



These sash are in use by hundreds in every state in the Union, and are^ 

 paying for themselves every season in extra profits. They are a model of 

 efficiency. The extra layer of glass, with the air space between, conserves 

 the warmth in the bed and does away with tbe ne«l to buy or use mats or 

 shutters. Here is a saving of 50* in labor and worry. The plants are 

 earlier and stronger— here is a gain of 60* in money returns. 



A New Sun-heated Greenhouse 



The Sunlight idea has been carried into an inexpensive greenhouse, II x 12, 

 \\\'i.\, 11x86, or 11x18 feet in size. It is made of Sunlight Double Qlass 

 Sash, which are instantly adjustable for top ventilation and instantly 

 removable for use on hot-beds or cold-frames. Thus they serve a double 

 purpose. For this reason, and also because no expensive system of artificial 

 heating is required, this greenhouse is the cheapest you can buy.
