PITTSBURG. 



Notes. 



Weather is hot and dry. Cut flower 

 trade very much summerish. Good 

 roses have been scarce lately. Kalser- 

 in is the only white rose for summer. 

 There are still some longiflorums com- 

 ing in, also fine auratums. Carnations 

 are plenty and cheap, quality inferior. 

 Sweet peas are coming in from outside 

 now, but stems are rather short. 



F. Burki is receiving congratulations 

 and seems well pleased; a little daugh- 

 ter came to his house last week. 



Mr. Schwab, of Braddocks, president 

 of the Carnegie Steel Company, bought 

 the late Captain Vandergrift's place in 

 the Bast End for $260,000. It is one 

 of the finest private places about 

 Pittsburg. 



Hartman Bros, have sold out every- 

 thing and are moving to their farm at 

 Warren, O. BAER. 



SAN FRANCISCO. 



The Market. 



Business has been very quiet the 

 past week and the bubonic plague scare 

 has helped to make things worse by 

 keeping intending visitors away from 

 the city. All kinds of business have 

 been affected to some extent. The 

 plague is a fake, sure enough, and will 

 soon pass over. 



Prices: American Beauties, 25 cents 

 to $1.50; Beauties and Bridesmaids, 25 

 to 40 cents; Meteors, 15 to 25 cents; 

 Perles, 20 to 25 cents; Testouts, 25 

 cents. Carnations, Hobart $1, Schwerin 

 35 cents, Bradbury 25 to 35 cents. Hill 

 and Bradt 20 to 25 cents. Nugget and 

 Triumph 25 cents, Scott 10 to 15 cents, 

 Portia 10 cents. Sweet peas, 50 to 75 

 cents; gladiolus, The Bride, $2 per 100. 



Notes. 



J Oilman, Elrahurst, has planted one 

 of his houses, 11x300, with Brides and 

 Bridesmaids. Two more houses of the 

 same size are to be planted with Beau- 

 ties, Meteors, etc. 



Domoto Bros., Fruitvale, have just 

 finished one house, 14,000 feet of glass, 

 to be planted with carnations. Five 

 large houses have been planted with 

 chrysanthemums and are looking well. 



Simmons is resting most of his roses 

 and is now busy with repairs about his 

 place. 



The Lacy Company, near Mill's semi- 

 nary is busy planting Beauties, Brides, 

 Bridesmaids, Kaiserins, Meteors, Tes- 

 touts and C. Brunners. 



At the Golden Gate Park conservato- 

 ries a fine show may be seen in tube- 

 rous begonias, gloxinias and fancy cal- 

 adiums. One house of orchids looks 

 fine and healthy and making good 

 growth. The outside bedding is fin- 

 ished and everything looks trim. Never 

 before in the history of the park have 

 thinks looked so well and great credit 

 is due Superintendent McLaren for his 

 pains to have it so. 



Wm. J. Dingee, the owner of Fern- 

 wood, has purchased the Baker resi- 

 dence, corner Washington and Frank- 

 lin streets, and will erect a conserva- 

 tory costing $20,000. The tables and 

 benches will be of marble and a large 

 amount of bronze will be used in the 

 building. At one end of the conserva- 

 tory will be a billiard room, and at the 

 other end a dining room. Mr. Dingee 

 intends this to be the finest conserva- 

 tory in California and money will not 

 be spared to make it so.
