PITTSBUBGH. 



The Market. 



The hot weather here last week is 

 having its effect on stock generally, 

 although roses and carnations are still 

 fairly good and the month's business 

 has been quite satisfactory, from all 

 reports. 



In the wholesale district, stock is 

 shortening up considerably, but with 

 fine gladioli, lilies, valley and fairly 

 good roses and carnations, the whole- 

 salers feel that they will be able to 

 take good care of trade until the sea- 

 son starts in autumn. The retailers 

 are finishing up their weddings and ar- 

 ranging their vacation schedules and 

 there is not much to say about them. 

 The extreme heat last week got to all 

 shipped stock, Beauties and peas suf- 

 fering the most. 



Various Notes. 



The Pittsburgh Cut Flower Co. is re- 

 ceiving some exceptionally fine Amer- 

 ica gladioli. 



The John Bader Co. is putting up a 

 house 25x120 for ferns. Lord & Burn- 

 ham Co. is doing the work.
