standard Simplicity 



In our ENGINE the valves and the finder are completely water-jacketed, 

 yet whenever it is necessary to get at the valves, to clean and regrind them, they 

 are readily reached by simply unscrewing the flat iron plate that serves as cj^l- 

 inder head. This accessibility is exclusively a Standard feature, and you will 

 find that in other engines you must disconnect the cooling-water pipe and the 

 exhaust pipe, and expose a water-jacket joint before you can get at the valves. 



The accompanying cut shows the engine cylinder head with the plate re- 

 moved, exposing the vertical inlet and exhaust valves. 



The same ing^enuity has been used in making the valves of the pump 

 accessible, as we shall show upon this page within a few weeks.

NEW BEDFOBD, MASS. 



The Market. 



Gut flower trade was good last week, 

 considering that Lent is now with us. 

 Flowers are more plentiful and prices 

 are a little lower as a result. We have 

 had considerable sunshine the last two 

 weeks, bringing out the flowers in large 

 quantities, although the weather con- 

 tinues rather cold. , 



Carnations retail at 10 cents per 

 dozen, a few bringing 75 cents; roses 

 get $1.50 to $2 and are in bigger supply. 

 Bulb stock is plentiful, with the prices 

 down, tulips retailing at 50 cents per 

 dozen; daffodils the same; double tulips, 

 "V5 cents; snapdragons, 75 cents to $1; 

 callas, $2; Easter lilies, $2.50; mignon- 

 ette, 60 cents; Paper Whites, 50 cents; 

 violets, $1 per hundred, and sweet peas 

 from that up to $1.50. Plant trade is 

 good and freesia and alyssum help out 

 in design work. 



The street fakers were with us last 

 Saturday, selling violets at 15 cents per 

 bunch, and carnations and daffodils at 

 35 cents per dozen. 



Everything looks good for Easter. 



Various Notes. 



E. H. Chamberlain had a big run on 

 violets last Saturday. 



Wm. P. Peirce has had some fine 

 window displays recently. 



It is rumored that Wm. E. Mosher 

 will lease the Hillman street green- 

 houses, formerly run by N. Lemay. Mr. 

 Mosher had the misfortune to be burned 

 out some time ago and is at present 

 operating one of S. J. Donaghy's houses. 



H. M. Eobinson, of Boston, was a re- 

 cent visitor. W. L. 



CONNERSVILLE, IND. 



The business of the Heim Support 

 Co., which was owned and operated by 

 Albert Bell, has been leased by the 

 Triple Sign Co. and will be run in con- 

 nection with the sign business at the 

 comer of Eastern avenue and Tenth 

 street. The machinery has been moved 

 and a full line of supports, safety clips 

 and the like will be made and sold. 

 Also a new line of special florists' nov- 

 elties, such as fern boxes, baskets and 

 porch box reservoirs and mission hang- 

 ing baskets, will be added. C. A. 

 Rieman, the florist, is at the head of 

 this department. Mr. Bell experts to 

 devote his entire time to hte 8tofe.
