PITTSBURG. 



The Market. 



We are simply having grand weather, 

 no frost to injure the dahlias, cosmos 

 and gladioli, which are being cut in 

 abundance. Roses are very plentiful and 

 slow sale. Carnations are still a little 

 scarce and high priced. Chrysanthemums 

 are arriving in large quantities and meet 

 with slow sale. Beauties are a little off 

 crop. In greens, the demand is increas- 

 ing for asparagus and smilax. 

 Notes. 



Messrs. McClements, Breitenstein, Ged 

 dis, Blind and Perry, who attended the 

 Harris-Craig palm sale at Philedalphia 

 last week, have returned. 



Mr. Langhans, of the Pittsburg Cut 

 Flower Co., reports shipping business 

 very good. 



The meeting of the Florists' Club last 

 Tuesday e\ening was the best one for 

 years. Dahlias, cannas and outdoor flow- 

 ers were discussed. Many out of town 

 growers contributed to make the meeting 

 a sucesss. Pres. Win. Falconer deserves 

 much credit for this enthusiastic meet- 

 ing. Ice cream and cake were served. 



The new flower shop to be opened at 

 30 Fifth street will be managed by David 

 Geddis and Henry Blind. The location 

 is a good one. 



Frank Shoen is receiving congratula- 

 tions on a fine baby girl. Mrs. Shoen 

 and the baby are doing finely.
