general view. I doubt whether yellow 

 and white set amid plenty of green can 

 be improved upon in a long stretch. For 

 yellow the double Narcissus Von Sion, 

 and for white the single L'Immaculee, 

 appeared to predominate. 



The planting is rather far apart, the 

 impression made being that finer bulba 

 had been given more space. The general 

 effect was excellent. 



The Sunny South. 



Paul Berkowitz, of H. Bayersdorfer & 

 Co., has just returned from the sunny 

 south, where he seems to have been most 

 kindly received by his many friends, 

 judging from the pleasure with which he 

 spoke of his trip. Mr. Berkowitz called 

 Phil's attention to a few advances to be 

 seen in the handsome show-cases. A 

 hammered brass cornucopia made in sev- 

 eral sizes for holding flowers in an auto- 

 mobile (it is attached to the side with 



a hook) was a striking novelty. Great 

 improvement was shown in the Memorial 

 day designs, the flowers used this year 

 on all the wreaths being wonderfully per- 

 fect. They were so artistically attached 

 to the wreaths as to appear natural, the 

 colors being wonderfully delicate. Mr. 

 Berkowitz said that Memorial day busi- 

 ness so far this season is ahead of expec- 

 tations. 



In the Shop. 



Salesman, producing a handsome bunch 

 of long-stemmed roses: Here are the 

 poets. 



Buyer: Why do you say that! 



Salesman: Thoy arc the Longfellows. 



Varioua Notes. 



Samuel T. Pnvnian & Co. sold a ship- 

 ment of Holland plants and shrubbery 

 at auction April 23. 



Among the visitors in town lately were 



Charles Netsch, of Buffalo; Carl Netsch- 

 ert, of Chicago, and J. M. Nunnally, of 

 Atlanta, Ga. 



Frank J. Farney, late of Chicago, has 

 joined the forces of M. Rice & Co. 



Charles M. Keegan offered his creditors 

 25 cents on the dollar April 24. The lia- 

 bilities are stated at something over 

 $5,200. 



Smith, Lineaweaver & Co. are hopeful 

 that the meeting of the anthracite coal 

 miners this week will lead to a peaceful 

 solution of the difficulty with the oper- 

 ators. 



B. Eschner, of M. Eice & Co., report 

 Memorial day business as unusually 

 active. 



Frederick J. Michell, Jr., was too busy 

 to talk. He just smiled cheerfully, and 

 pitched in again. 



Pennock Bros, have a daisy window 

 this week. This is not slang, but fact. 



Edward J. Fancourt has returned from 

 a business trip. 



J. J. Habermehl's Sons had the deco- 

 rations for the great banquet at the 

 Union League, April 27. President Taft 

 was the guest of honor. Phil. 



I HAVE grown so accustomed to relying 

 on the Review that I can not get along 

 without it. — George Hartung, Chicago. 



Ashtabula, O. — Dunbar & Hopkins 

 say that no great harm was done here by 

 the recent wind storm. Nothing of 

 greater consequence is reported than the 

 breaking of a few lights of glass and the 

 tipping over of an old smokestack. 



NoRRiSTOWN, Pa. — Wm. H. Catanese 

 is erecting a three-story flower and seed 

 store at 323 De Kalb street, and expects 

 to have it ready for occupancy about the 

 middle of May. He says that business 

 so far this year has been up to the 

 standard, but there would have been a 

 larger Easter trade if the weather had 

 not been so cold. 



North Easton, Mass. — The Carl T. 

 Swanson farm, containing seventeen 

 acres of land on which is located a 

 greenhouse plant, has recently been 

 owned successively by the Foxboro Co- 

 operative Bank and a man named Nel- 

 son. Now the property has been trans- 

 ferred again, and the new purchaser will 

 improve and occupy it in the near future.
