greenhouses of the Pittsburgh Cut 

 Flower Co., at Bakerstown, Pa. Mr. An- 

 derson remarked that the Pittsburgh Cut 

 Flower Co. had the most modern heat- 

 ing equipment he had seen in all his 

 travels. He also reported that the stock 

 looked well. 



The monthly meeting of the Pitts- 

 burgh Retail Florists' Association will 

 be held December 1 at the Chatham

The Market. 



Business for Thanksgiving week was 

 somewhat of a disappointment, as there 

 were no social functions that demanded 

 cut flowers or decorations. Some slight 

 activity was experienced in small orders 

 for cut flowers for tables at family 

 gatherings, but even these were not so 

 noticeable as in some former years. The 

 entire week preceding was dark, dreary 

 and rainj', while Thanksgiving day it- 

 self dawned with the ground shrouded 

 in a light mantle of snow and a misty, 

 drizzling rain that combined to make 

 the d.-iy a disagreeable one. 



Chrysanthemums were in evidence in 

 large quantities, especially of small 

 blooms, sprays and pompons, but, al- 

 though the retail prices on these were as 

 low as 35 cents for a bunch of twenty- 

 five, there Avas little movement. Large 

 blooms retailed at 25, 35 and 50 cents 

 each, with a few choice ones at 75 cents. 

 Carnations were in good quantity and 

 much better quality than at any other 

 time this season. Eoses were in good 

 sujiply and a few novelties were offered. 



Funeral work holds up, but not in a 

 volume proportionate to the number of 

 funerals, and the line following funeral 

 notices in the daily ])apers of "Please 

 omit flowers" is becoming more and 

 more frequent. 



Various Notes. 



J. E. Koppelman furnished his em- 

 ployees with turkeys and greenbacks 

 for Thanksgiving. 



Samuel Reisnick, of Bowers & Co., is 

 receiving congratulations on the advent 

 of an 1] -pound girl in his family circle 

 last week. 



Frederick E. Dietz was a business vis- 

 itor in New York and vicinity last
