DID YOU SEE B 



The McCALLUM DISPLAY at the big Detroit Convention, and 



DID YOU BUY? 



If not, you surely will be the loser by waiting too long to purchase your requirements for the 

 fall and holiday seasons, as labor conditions now are most serious, so 



IF YOU HAVE A THING TO SELL GO AHEAD AND SELL IT. 

 IF YOU HAVE A THING TO BUY GO AHEAD AND BUY IT. 



You cannot expect to do business today at anywhere near the price levels that have existed. 

 We are not living in the past and we are not living in the future. 



WE ARE LIVING IN THE PRESENT Q

 of land near Grundy Center and is build-

PITTSBURGH. 



The Market. 



"Nothing doing," is the report of the 

 majority of retailers throughout the 

 city and suburban towns, although the 

 wholesale markets seem to be having a 

 fair average of business, considering the 

 midsummer season. However, large 

 quantities of stock are coming in right 

 along and of course prices are bound to 

 suffer. The markets are fairly loaded 

 with gladioli, which run from $1 to $8 

 per hundred. There are fewer asters 

 than during any previous season in thef 

 history of the trade, although the few 

 maturing are good, with a range of $1 

 to $5 per hundred. This season is con- 

 spicuous also on account of the absence 



of sweet peas. Even the private gar- 

 deners are practically without them, ow- 

 ing to the prolonged dry, hot spell early 

 in the season. The later hard rains and 

 torrid sun added to the injury by fairly 

 scalding the few producers. 



There are plenty of roses of fairly^ 

 satisfactory quality selling at $1 to $12. 

 The summer really has been remarkable 

 for the quantity of American Beauties, 

 which are also more satisfactory than 

 usual at this season. They, too, are dis- 

 posed of at "asked prices," or $1 to $5 

 per dozen. There are no orchids, but 

 the growers are still cutting fair carna- 

 tions, which are disposed of at $2 p^r 

 hundred.
