The Market. 



Boxwood is coming in and being sent 

 out rapidly, tardy deliveries being 

 avoided on account of the freight con- 

 gestion. Market conditions continue 

 exceptionally good, with a greater de- 

 mand than even last week. The supply 

 again is inadequate for the enormous 

 demand which has dominated the mar- 

 ket since mid-autumn and promises to 

 continue indefinitely. There is no doubt 

 now that the supply of chrysanthemums 

 will be sadly in arrears for Thanksgiv- 

 ing, as many of the greenhouses are al- 

 ready entirely cut out. Eoses also are 

 on the s^ort side. Prices on all stock 

 remain firm. The bulb season is opening 

 up in a highly satisfactory manner, but, 

 as with cut flowers, as yet there are not 

 nearly enough bulbs to go around. 

 Various Notes. 



C. C. Phillips has returned from a trip 

 through eastern Ohio and western Penn- 

 sylvania in the interest of the McCallum 

 Co. and reports that prevailing business 

 conditions are practically the same as 

 in the Pittsburgh district. He tells me 

 that John Keil, of East Liverpool, O., 

 has been cutting some of the finest 

 chrysanthemums seen in his travels this 

 season, his white Turners and marigolds 

 being exceptionally beautiful. Man- 

 ager Schneidmiller has been unusually 

 busy in the store on funeral work both 

 day and night. 



H. L. Thompson, the popular florist 

 of Rochester and New Brighton, Pa., is 

 about again after a severe attack of 

 pneumonia. Mrs. Thompson, who has 

 been looking after the business during 

 her husband's illness, says that during 

 the last two months they have broken 

 all previous records in sales. 



H. C. Neubrand was in town a few 

 days ago representing C. R. Burr & Co., 

 nurserymen, of Manchester, Conn. 



Henry Monke has been added to the 

 staff of the Liberty Florists, Franks- 

 town and Penn avenues, for outside 

 decorating and designing. 



In the horticultural world, as else- 

 where, everything depends on the point 

 of view, and just now J. Wilkinson El- 

 liott has about the same idea of the bulb 

 business as General Sherman had of war. 

 Saturday he was in his town office for 

 the second time in the last month, hav- 

 ing been kept close to the Springdale 

 packing house with inexperienced help. 

 In addition to his three sons, the war has 

 called ten of his experienced nursery- 

 meiif and through the influenza epidemic

he was without a stenographer, three of 

 them having been seized with the dis- 

 ease. However, the closing of the pub- 

 lic schools proved to Mr. Elliott a bless- 

 ing, though at first disguised, for there- 

 by he was able to procure two teachers 

 and a lot of high school boys and girls 

 to help fill approximately 6,000 orders. 

 While several hundreds of cases of 

 French and Holland bulbs have been re- 

 ceived here, 165 cases are still missing, 

 presumably lying in mid-ocean or held 

 up in British ports. The Beckert Seed 

 Co., of Federal street, north side, is hav- 

 ing a similar experience with its for- 

 eign goods; while, on the other hand, the 

 Scobie & Parker Co. has received its 

 entire lot of foreign consignments. 



Leo and John Shorall, the Oakland 

 Florists, of Forbes street, are fortunate 

 in having the only business of the kind 

 in this busy section of the city. John 

 Shorall, who went to France after spend- 

 ing the month of May at Camp Lee, to- 

 gether with twenty comrades, returned 

 in September to Camp Meade, where he 

 is now. E. E. S.
