We still have fine plants of several varieties. These plants have been kept topped back 

 and protierly cared for, and should come right ahead with a good crop when benched.

PITTSBURGH, PA. 



The Market. 



Stock has been luoro itlcntifiil .lininji 

 the last week than for soiik; time, witli 

 ;iood lilies, gladioli and flnysanthemums 

 playing Icadiiifj; ]iarts. Koses are re- 

 ceived in larger (juantities, and tlie first 

 \ iolets are liere. i'ine dahlias are being 

 shipped in and command fair prices. 

 Iletailera arc tloing about tlie usual vol- 

 ume of business. 



Tlie wliolesale trade lias been active, 

 but has been liampered Ity tlie uncer- 

 tainty of expressage. It is hard to get 

 siiii)ments started, aiul when oiioe on 

 the way delays of from twonty-foiir to 

 fortv-eight hours seem to l)e the rule. 

 Nearly all of the express companies 

 have i)ut eml)argoes on the return of 

 empties. 



The coal situation does not imi)rove, 

 :iiid at the jiresent ]irict's dealers do not 

 like to contract for their season's sui>- 

 l>ly. There is considerable anxiety even 

 about present needs. The (luality of 

 the coal available is inferior, much of it 

 being slack. The .+2 coal we have been 

 hearing about must still be in the mines; 

 it is not on the market, at any f.ate. 



Various Notes. 



The lilind Floral Co. has stM its retail 

 business to Edward Mc(irath and Harry 

 iianghans, who will give the establish- 

 ment the new name of Em])ire Flower 

 shoj). As Messrs. Mciirath an<i Lang 

 lians have been conducting the Itusiness 

 for several years, and have made many 

 friends, the success of their venture is 

 assured. The Blind Floral Co. retains 

 tlie greenhouses and will grow some 

 (lowers for cutting, but most of the 

 space Avill be de\(>ted to plants fur the 

 wholesale trade. 



At the meeting of the I'ittshuigh Flo 

 rists' Club October 2 there was a hand- 

 some display of dahlias. The S. A. F. 

 publicity plan was discussed, but as 

 most of the members present were gar- 

 deners there was not the interest shown 

 that is expected of the florists. I'itts- 

 l>urgh doubtless will be in line for this 

 campaign, however. Clarke.
