The Rorists^ Review 



NOTBMBIB 24, 1021 



PITTSBUaOH, PA. 



The Market. 



Armistice day was religiously and pa- 

 triotically observed in this city, but, 

 while many flowers were used in the 

 celebration, it can hardly be classed as 

 a flower day. Viewing it from a com- 

 mercial standpoint, the extra business 

 was practically donations. There was 

 little extra selling and there was no ad- 

 vertising of the day by the local florists. 

 Several florists, however, decorated their 

 windows in commemoration of the day. 



The quantity of stock that is coming 

 in is not now so enormous. The demand, 

 however, has not increased to any ex- 

 tent, so that prices practically remain 

 the same. Chrysanthemums are most in 

 supply. Daily shipments of American 

 Beauty roses are being received and are 

 moving out slowly. Other roses are not 

 so plentiful, but the demand is small. 

 Carnations are still being received in 

 large quantities and the quality is ex- 

 ceptionally fine. The demand, however, 

 is limited. Orchids are scarce. Easter 

 lilies move on sight. Valley is of good 

 quality. Sweet peas arrive in large 

 quantities and are improving in quality, 

 but the demand is limited. Snapdragons 

 and calendulas are also being received. 



Various Notes. 



Joseph Thomas, of Greensburg, is re- 

 covering from a serious illness. 



One of the trucks of the Pittsburgh 

 Cut Flower Co., while making deliveries 

 in the east end Saturday morning, No- 

 vember 19, caught fire and the entire 

 body of the truck was burned, with an 

 estimated loss of about $500. 



A new store was opened at 7 Federal 

 street, north side, Saturday, November 

 19, by Miss Gertrude Willey. Miss 

 Willey 's store is situated near the Sixth 

 street bridge and is away from any other 

 retail store. H. J. H. 



The decorated truck of the E. C. 

 Ludwig Floral Co. was awarded first 

 prize in the Halloween parade held 

 November 1 under the auspices of the 

 Business Men's Association of the East 

 North Side.
