Trade Conditions. 



Trade has improved a little of late, 

 wedding receptions and other social 

 functions making a call for quantities 

 of tlowers. 



Present to Allegheny Park. 



The Allegheny Park conservatory 

 has been enriched by a beautiful pres- 

 ent, a handsome specimen of Phoenix 

 canariensis, 20 feet tall and with a 

 spread of 20 feet, from Mr. John Bader, 

 of Allegheny. Mr. Bader secured the 

 plant during his recent trip abroad. 



L. 



SCRANTON, PA. 



G. R. Clark completed the improve- 

 ments to his store in time for the holi- 

 day rush. The addition of a handsome 

 refrigerator built in on one side gives 

 a beautiful appearance to the whole 

 place. Mr. Clark handles an immense 

 bulk of outdoor stock and notes in- 

 ci-easing tendency to beautify the 

 grounds of the middle as well as upper 

 classes. W. M.

 homa Territory, lost a large percentage
