Samples of a few of the Ribbons we make will be put in 

 tlie mail and on their way to you the day your request is 

 received. 



These interesting samples will give you an idea of the 

 quality of Pine Tree Ribbons. Quality is the keynote of 

 Pine Tree Kibbon excellence, and quality at no higher cost to 

 you than what you now pay for your Ribbons. 



When we say, "Save all between profits," we mean that 

 vou buy direct from the mill and cut out the profits of the job- 

 ber and the commiesion house. These profits are in Pine Tree 

 (juality Ribbons. We ask that you send a postal request for 

 samples, examine our samples for touch and luster and color 

 and quality, and then note the excellence and wonderful values 

 of Pine Tree Rihbons. _

rank of our forcing roses. There were 

 two blooms, both showing magnificent 

 size, as large as the finest American 

 Beauty, beautiful, rich red color, deli- 

 cious fragrance, heavy stems of medium 

 length, clothed with excellent foliage. 

 One of the blooms, cut four days before 



the other, was a little lighter in color, 

 but with not a trace of magenta, the 

 purplish tinge that mars the fading 

 Beauty. The color scarce seemed as 

 bright as Richmond, yet an excellent 

 red, and the flower of substance of 

 which Richmond never dreamed. Mr.

Towill has ten plants of this rose, so 

 it is not in the debutante class — ^just 

 in the nursery — to be watched with 

 keenest interest as it develops. An- 

 other seedling, a deep hued cross be- 

 tween Killarney and Rosalind Orr Eng- 

 lish, is a fitting foil for the other. 



Various Notes. 



The principal business at the Jan- 

 uary meeting of the Pennsylvania Hor- 

 ticultural Society was the discussion of 

 the plan for improving the society's 

 shows. It will be remembered that J. 



Otto Thilow, chairman of the essay 

 committee of the Florists' Club, invited 

 Edward A. Stroud to prepare and read 

 a paper on how to improve our shows. 

 The result of this paper, read before 

 the Florists' Club December 6, was the 

 appointment of a committee with power 

 to act. This committee met a commit- 

 tee of the Pennsylvania Horticultural 

 Society; together they organized, with 

 Mr. Stroud as chairman and Mr. Thilow
