PITTSBURGH. 



The Market. 



February was a peculiar month as 

 far as weather was concerned. Valen- 

 tine's day the weather was so bad that 

 one could scarcely venture out. We 

 did not have one good Saturday during 

 the month, but February nevertheless 

 will go on record as the best February 

 of years. 



Last week stock of all kinds was 

 plentiful and cleaned up nicely. Vio- 

 lets and bulbous stock seemed to fare 

 the worst in regard to prices. There 

 were no Beauties worth mentioning, but 

 all other kinds of stock did well. The 

 wholesale houses seem busy and clean 

 up fairly well each day, with little 

 left over for the street boys. 



Various Notes. 



March 6 is the date of the next club 

 meeting, at Fort Pitt hotel. 



There is much talk about the Phila- 

 delphia National Flower Show. It ap- 

 pears as if everyone is going to see -the 

 "best show ever," according to the 

 Philadelphians. 



De Forest Ludwig, who has been 

 seriously ill for some time, is recovering 

 slowly. 



Miss Jane McDowell, of Steubenville, 

 O., is taking a much needed vacation. 

 Miss Agnes Wells taking charge during 

 her absence. 



The department stores are all han- 

 dling arrangements of artificial flowers 

 and seem to be doing a nice business. 

 I wondtjr if the florists are not missing 

 an opportunity. The florist should know 

 how to sell them. Clarke. 



Rochester, Minn. — A downtown store 

 has been opened by the Rochester Flo- 

 ral Co. The store at the former loca- 

 tion, which was damaged by fire, has 

 been discontinued. 



Ottawa, Kan. — "Business during De- 

 cember and January was splendid, the 

 demand exceeding the supply, but coal 

 has been hard to buy," says B. Rom- 

 stadt, in speaking of conditions in east- 

 ern Kansas. 



Minot, N. D. — According to George 

 E. Valker, of Valker's Minot Green- 

 houses, business in northwestern North 

 Dakota since January 1 has been rath- 

 er quiet, largely on account of the 

 severe snow storm and poor transpor- 

 tation. Mr. Valker says that during 

 the last seven weeks $400 worth of coal 

 per week has been consumed.
