the rose novelties; a single rose that is 

 to make its debut next spring. A whole 

 boose is filled with it, presenting a 

 charming appearance, vigorous, graceful 

 ■M form and foliage, with buds of an 

 imasmil eombination of colors, intense 

 fiery erimson-scarlet at the tip, shading 

 at the base of the petals to orange 

 ■almon. It is a rose that appeals to a 

 refined taste in flowers. There are 

 other interesting novelties of promise: 

 Mrs. Ford, Janet, Killarney Brilliant. 

 Flowers are being cut from all three 

 varieties. Probably all three will come 

 out within the next two years. Then 

 there are many varieties in the nursery 

 stage, selected by Mr. Scott from the 

 Newtownards grounds of Alex. Dickson 

 A Sons and brought here for trial under 

 glass. 



Various Notes. 



B. Eschner says that last Sunday was 

 the first time that the force of M. Rice 

 A Co. were obliged to work all of the 

 seventh day. Following six evenings of 

 work, this gives an idea of the stress 

 of orders that must be gotten out. Mr. 

 Eschner attributes the run of business 

 to the preference given their own fac- 

 tory-made supplies over the imported. 



William Berger had five large wed- 

 dings outside of Germantown last week. 

 that required much fine material and 

 aid from the Auto Car Co. 



H, F, Whitmer is planning the addi- 

 tion of two new houses at his Ellen- 

 wood greenhouses next spring. 



The man who flops now may never 

 know that it was not the flopping that 

 advanced prices. 



The steamers Prinz Oscar, arriving 

 November 22, and Neckar, arriving No- 

 vember 23, brought large shipments of 

 Christmas supplies for H. Bayersdorfer 

 A Co., enabling them to commence early 

 distribution of holiday orders. 



Myers & Samtman have a magnificent 

 lot of Sunburst roses. 



Paul F. Richter has almost completed 

 his arduous catalogue work.
