The steamers Prinz Adelbert and 

 Rhein have large shipments for H. 

 l^ayersdorfer & Co. The firm have per- 

 fected several decorative styles of 

 electroliers and something new in fancy 

 baskets in their own factory. 



The annual meeting of the Conard & 

 Jones Co. was held at West Grove, Pa., 

 last week. The year showed a substan- 

 tial gain for the company over any 

 previous year's business. All the offi- 

 cers were reelected. They are: Kobert 

 Pyle, president; Antoine Wintzer, vice- 

 rresident: Robert L. Pyle, treasurer; 

 Roland T. SatterlthWait, secretaTy. Con- 

 tracts have been let for installing an 

 improved Fairbanks-Morse pressure 

 tank and water system, conserving the 

 rain water from 50,000 square feet of 



their glass. Cold houses will be en- 

 larged and several minor improvements 

 made.

 prices than have prevailed of late. 



This week opens with a temperature 

 of 70 degrees, after a heavy and much 

 needed rainfall. Everything looks more 

 promising now, and the flood of roses 

 seems to have ended. Most of these 

 have been of poor quality; small buds, 

 open, short-stemmed and almost un- 

 salable. All selected rose stock is now 

 bringing top summer prices. Those 

 wholesalers who. 'Were fortunate enough^^ 

 to have shipments of the new varieties ' 

 sold out early at good figures. Brides 

 and Maids were inferior in quality and 

 were let go at any price.
