PHILADELPHIA NOTES. 



(Continued from page 74.) 

 ety in their proper proportions, com- 

 bined with a distinct advance in cul- 

 tural methods. 



Ooal. 



Smith, Lineaweaver & Co. report 

 great activity in the anthracite coal 

 market. All the collieries are running 

 on full time, pouring into the market 

 an immense product, which is being ab- 

 sorbed rapidly. Domestic sizes, par- 

 ticularly chestnut and pea, are quite 

 scarce; steaming sizes are more plenti- 

 ful. Eice is scarcer than buckwheat or 

 barley; little delay is experienced in 

 filling orders for the two last named, 

 but there is some delay in filling orders 

 for rice coal, owing to the increase in 

 the demand for this size from large 

 factories now using forced draft. 



The situation in the bituminous coal 

 field is disposed to be dull; there is a 

 good deal of business, but not nearly 

 enough to keep up steady activity.

Various Notes. 



The Chestnut Hill Floral Exchange is 

 now open for business, with Alexander 

 Laurentin as manager. 



M. Eice & Co. report the letters and 

 telegrams for Christmas goods last week 

 exceeding anything in their history. 



Lester Morse, of C. C. Morse & Co., 

 San Francisco, was a visitor this week. 



Edward Eeid will move from 1526 

 Banstead street to 1619 and 1621 Ean- 

 stead street December 14. Mr. Beid's 

 new quarters will give him needed room 

 for his large cut flower business. 



H. Bayersdorfer & Co. report Messrs. 

 Bridgman, of Boston, and Gibbs, of 

 Lynn, as visitors this week. The steam- 

 er Lapland arrived December 5 with 

 500 cases of Christmas goods for this 

 firm. 



The new yellow rose, Melody, is com- 

 ing in to S. S. Pennock-Meehah Co. in 

 extraordinarily improved form. The 

 flowers are bearing out Mr. Scott's pre- 

 diction that Melody is a cold weather 

 rose. 



The ball season opened last week, 

 rather earlier than usual. There will 

 be several handsome entertainments at 

 Horticultural hall and the Bellevue- 

 Stratford during December. . 



Emil H. Gerschick, who rebuilt four 

 houses and added one more last fall, 

 has his place in excellent condition. Mr. 

 Gerschick has added orchids, a fine lot 

 of cattleyas, to his collection of plants. 



George Auegle reports that the Phil- 

 adelphia Cut Flower Co. will have fancy 

 blooms of Chrysanthemum Jeanne 

 Nonin steadily until the holidays. 



Henry C. Heilemanix has completed a 

 fine greenhouse in the rear of his store. 



The Chestnut Hill Floral Exchange 

 has opened for business on Germantown 

 avenue, near the Chestnut Hill station 

 of the Pennsylvania railroad. 



Eaymond Kessler is away on a fishing 

 trip. Phil.
