FLOWER POTS 



We are trying to save you money through 

 this advertisement. Our plan is to furnish 

 you the best of ware at a very low price 

 It costs money to call on you perstmally. Let's get together on the mail order proposition and you save the difference. There 

 are other reasons why you will want our pots. We are very fortunate in the quality of our clay, and you will be delighted 

 with the ware. Our large output and advantages of cheap fuel, with our clay at our back door and the railroads at our front 

 door, with little cost for selling, enables us to quote you very low prices. A sample order will convince you. Samples and 

 prices on application. Whether you use car lots or smaller quantities, it is to your advantage to write us.

LANCASTER, PA. 



The Market. 



The Easter season has been a busy 

 one, and florists are all pleased with 

 the volume of business done. The 

 weather on the Saturday preceding 

 Easter was fine and helped the retail 

 business considerably. 



Various Notes. 



T. R. Tries had two stores during the 

 Easter rush and handled a fine lot of 

 plants. 



H. A. Schroyer had a fine showing of 

 cut flowers and plants. 



George Goldbach was especially 

 strong on callas, besides having a full 

 line of seasonable stock. 



The Rosery showed a good line of 

 stock. 



W. A. Hammond, in his ne,w store 

 on North Prince street, handled quan- 

 tities of fine stock. 



F. A. Suter had an annex on Center 

 Square during the Easter rush. 



B. F. Barr & Co. had an exception- 

 ally fine showing. C. F. Edgar, man- 

 ager, showed some new baskets fiUed 

 with dainty spring cut flowers that 

 sold on sight. Some large basket ar- 

 rangements of plants were money- 

 makers. To help out during the rush 

 they had a large store room on Center 

 Square, filled with popular priced 

 plants. 



Among the best selling flowers were 

 the new orchid peas, which sold on 

 sight at a price which warranted their 

 growing. H. K. B. 



Hattiesburg, Miss. — Henry Meyer, 

 formerly proprietor of the Long View 

 Floral Co., at Rock Island, HI., has 

 opened an establishment here. 



Port Richey, Fla.— Herms & Snyder 

 are building a greenhouse, in which 

 they will grow cut flowers, shrubs and 

 bedding plants. Mr. Herms was for 

 many years in business at Portsmouth, 

 O., and under his management the firm 

 will undoubtedly make a success.

flF YOU ONLY KNEW what a good eave 

 U^the METROPOLITAN PATENTED is, 



you would use no other. It is made of 

 cast iron and will not rust. That part of 

 your greenhouse which in other constructions 

 is the weakest becomes the strongest. Not 

 this alone, it is ice-clearing and carries all 

 the water of condensation from the inside, 

 and it is so constructed that almost the entire end 

 of the bar is exposed to the air, thereby preventing 

 decay. Only one screw, about two inches from the 

 end. is all that is necessary to secure the bars. For 

 side stationary glass, wood headers are absolutely 

 unnecessary, thereby causing no shade. Zinc glass 

 stops are not neceirsary— the eave is made with a lug 

 to prevent the glass from slipping. Let your next 

 house be built with a Metropolitan Patontod 

 Iron Wall Construction. You will never regret 

 it. Our price and service are right.
