The Markel. 



Quantities of all kinds of flowers are 

 arriving in this market and the demand 

 is only fair. The mild fall weather is 

 bringing along large quantities of 

 chrysanthemums and roses. In fact roses 

 and chrysanthemums are a glut and hard 

 to move at respectable figures. So far 

 mums have not affected the demand for 

 Beauties in the slightest; the supply is 

 large and the quality extra fine. In 

 miscellaneous roses, the fancy varieties 

 have the call, the minor grades remain- 

 ing unsold. Some very choice Golden 

 Gate and Ivory are being received. Car- 

 nations are not blooming as freely as 

 other seasons, but it's a good fault just 

 now, as their scarceness keeps up their 

 prices a little. Quantities of sweet peas 

 and California violets are arriving and! 

 find a good market. Smilax is very 

 plentiful and Sprengeri scarce. 



Notes. 



Henry Eichholz, of Waynesboro, is 

 sending the finest Jerome Jones seen in 

 this city; in size and quality they will 

 hardly be equaled in the country. 



Blind Bros, are cutting some very fine 

 Niveus. 



The Pittsburg Rose and Carnation Co., 

 at Bakerstown, is shipping quantities of 

 extra fine Maids and Brides to the Cut 

 Flower Co. 



Among the retailers, Randolph & Mc- 

 Clements, A. W. Smith, Breitenstein & 

 Flemm, L. I. Neff and T. M. TJlam, re- 

 port good business with weddings and 

 other festivities. 



Mrs. E. A. Williams furnished the dec- 

 orations for the Consistory banquet at 

 Duquesne Garden last Friday; the work 

 was elaborate and costly. 



Geddis & Blind are making a fine win- 

 dow display with chrysanthemums at 

 their Fifth street store. 



The Pittsburg Cut Flower Co. is re- 

 ceiving some very choice sweet peas, long- 

 iflorum lilies and mignonette. 



E. C. Ludwig is handling a great va- 

 riety of very beautiful out-door pompon 

 chrysanthemums. Hoo-Hoo. 



Chicago, O. — John Klink has sold his 

 greenhouses to George H. Meyers and 

 will leave for Cuba in a short time. 



Watertown, N. T. — Greene & Under- 

 bill have paid their creditors a first and 

 final dividend of 75 per cent in. their 

 bankruptcy case.

 display he ever saw.
