The Weekly Horists' Review. 



ArniL 16, lOOO-. 



ERIE, PA. 



The Market. 



Easter trade was satisfactory to the 

 Erie florists. Stock was in fine condi- 

 tion and moved rapidly. An immense 

 quantity of violets were sold. Beauty, 

 Killarney, Bridesmaid, Bride and Rhea 

 Reid were first-class and brought good 

 prices. Everything was favorable ex- 

 cepting the weather. The first part of 

 Easter week we had ideal, warm days, 

 but Friday and Saturday a cold wave 

 struck us, making Easter delivery diffi- 

 cult. 



Various Notes 



J. Hanna, of PittsDurg, has taken a 

 position with the Baur FJoral Co. 



Adolph Jasperson, of Oil City, Pa., is 

 spending the Easter holidays in Erie and 

 is incidentally helping his uncle, Chas. 

 OflFerle, over the Easter rush. 



Miss Cora Hapgood has recently taken 

 a position as saleslady in John V. 

 Laver's flower store. 



Erie nickelodeons have commenced to 

 buy carnations by the hundred and are 

 handing them out to their patrons.

XCNE POT WASHER 



This machine is built substantially and will withstand severe wear and tear; sides, ends 

 ,and bottom are talteo tcvm 1 olear, Red Gulf Cypress Board, apd are mortised and bolted 

 together, after which they receive two coats Lead and Oil of first quality, assuring long life, 

 no leakage and durability. Body of machine will hold from 300 to 800 pots (according to 

 size), which is filled with enough water to cover said pots, thereby causing dirt, etc., to soak 

 loose; then same is lifted from water and placed on brush of machine (full set of brushes go 

 with each nachine), which will do better work than would be possible to obtain by hand. 



Two men can wash with this machine 15,000 pots per day, or one man 7500 pots per 4ay, 

 or 7500 pots can be washed for $1.50. One man can wash by hand 1500 pots per day (if be 

 works hard), therefore you will plainly see that in one day one man will wash, with machine, 

 6000 more than he can wash by hand, or five times as many. Above figures will show that by 

 band it will cost Sl.OO per 1000 to wash pots; they will also show that it costs by use of our 

 machine 20c per 1000. a saving of 80c per 1000. This means that if you have 35,000 to wash 

 same will pay for machine. Write for prloea and parttoulara.
