Berger Bros, find that the condition 

 of their stock on display is improved 

 by the absence of heat in the store; 

 enough warmth comes from the boilers 

 in the cellar to prevent danger from 

 frost on cold days.

LANCASTER, PA. 



The bimonthly visiting tour of the 

 Lancaster County Florists' Club was 

 made February 20, to florists of the 

 city. Starting in the west end, the 

 first stop was made at the establish- 

 ment of the Wheatland Co., where car- 

 nations are grown for quality and price 

 and both are obtained, under the effi- 

 cient culture of E. F. Law, the secre- 

 tary and treasurer of the company. T. 

 F. Fries, who is a plantsman pure and 

 simple and knows how, was next vis- 

 ited. B. F. Barr, another retail grower, 

 was the third person called on, and 

 here we found roses, carnations and a 

 general line of stock in good shape for 

 his business. His place is known as the 

 Keystone Nurseries and he does quite 

 a wholesale business in the nursery 

 line. 



Albert M. Herr, a neighbor of Mr. 

 Barr, was next. The visitors were sur- 

 prised at the quantity of geraniums 

 grown and the immense house of colons 

 was something they had never seen 

 equaled in color, vigor and cleanliness. 



Rudolph Nagel was the next in line, 

 and here were found geraniums and 

 chrysanthemums in quantity for rooted 

 cuttings. His place is always a model 

 of cleanliness and order. This finished 

 the west end, where each place visited 

 was within easy walking distance of 

 the next. 



Taking a car for the east end, the 

 first stop was made at our secretary's 



UAVE you ever tried ARTIFICIAL FLOWER Sprays and 

 Pot Plants, as well as Natural Prepared Palms, Arecas, 

 or Sagos, Beech Branches and Maidenhair in connection with 

 your goods in decorating? They are certainly a good substitute 

 for the natural, which at times are scarce and expensive. My 

 goods are always of standard quality and price; no change at 

 any season. 



Give my line of Art Funeral Designs a trial. The demand is ei^ceptional. 

 Special catalogue U. F. shows complete line.
