springlike weather of the last few weeks 

 already has started vegetation here- 

 abouts into growth. 



The first jonquils are coming in from 

 New Galilee, Pa., and selling readily 

 to the retail trade at the rate of $6 per 

 hundred. Narcissi are coming in larger 

 quantities also, and are readily moved. 

 Carnations are more plentiful and sell 

 .at $6. The local florists are trying 

 to create a demand for violets, but with- 

 out marked success. Fine blooms are 

 coming in from Rhinebeck, but the 

 prices remain low for this one-time pop- 

 ular flower. 



Various Notes. 



The McCallum Co. has removed its 

 basket factory from the third and 

 fourth floors of the building at 137 San- 

 dusky street to the old Third Ward 

 schoolhouse, on the North Side. The 

 intention is to occupy the entire build- 

 ing and double the force of workers 

 for the purpose. The former quarters 

 of this work will be devoted to the new 

 artificial department, which is to be in 

 charge of C. C. Phillips, while the north 

 side establishment will be under the 

 management of Earl M. Schiltz. 



P. G. Harris has returned from a 

 week's visit in N'ew York city, the trip 

 combining business and pleasure. 



Joseph M. Johnston, of McKeesport, 

 spent the last week in Chicago, stopping 

 en route on a three months' trip, which 

 included the Mardi Gras season in New 

 Orleans and visiting Los Angeles, San 

 Francisco and other points along the 

 Pacific coast. Meanwhile his McKees- 

 port store is under the capable manage- 

 ment of Robert J. Walker, James Reger 

 and Joseph M. Johnston, Jr. Miss Hilda 

 Rathgib is a recent addition to the staff, 

 while Miss Minnie Hoser has just re- 

 turned from a three months* illness. 



Charles Dougherty, of McKeesport, 

 Pa., is confined to his home as the result 

 of a general run-down condition from 

 overwork during the recent strenuous 

 season. The Dougherty establishment is 

 "a family affair," presided over by 

 Mrs. Dougherty and her daughter. Miss 

 Lillian Dougherty, with the addition of 

 a delivery messenger. 



John H. Orth, another McKeesport 

 florist, spent a few days in Harrisburg
