PITTSBURGH. 



The Market. 



Pittsburgh had a freeze last week 

 that finishetl everything outside and 

 is ready to settle down to the regular 

 line of stock. The result has been an 

 increased demand for rosea and carna- 

 tions. Chrysanthemums are quite plen- 

 tiful, with more variety. Pompons are 

 beginning and from now until Thanks- 

 giving the wholesale men will have 

 plenty of work packing and, as it is 

 not customary in this city to charge 

 for packing, the large boxes will not 

 leave great profit. Lilies are plenti- 

 ful, with the demand lighter every 

 day. Beauties are not quite so abun- 

 dant as they have been, but there are 

 enough for the demand. Violets are 

 better in quality and there are i)lenty 

 of them. 



Various Notes, 



Most of the retail stores have their 

 Hallowe'en decorations up and they 

 are fairly busy, with better prospects 

 ahead. 



All of the violets and Beauties from 

 the Hudson river missed connections 

 October 26 and did not get in until 

 evening, causing considerable loss and 

 inconvenience. 



The Schenley park conservatories 

 had about half the show open October 

 27. The balance of the houses are not 

 ready and were kept closed. There 

 was a good crowd all day. 



H. J. Heinz, the man celebrated for 

 his fifty-seven varieties, has thrown 

 his conservatories open to the public. 

 He has a splendid display of chrysan- 

 themums and a general collection of 

 plants. The people show their appre- 

 ciation by crowding his houses all the 

 time. 



The Pittsburgh Cut Flower Co. found 

 it necessary to put a one ton Buick 

 truck into use to deliver goods. The 

 scarcity of errand boys and the in- 

 convenience on street cars had some- 

 thing to do with the change. 



John Murchie, of Sharon, was in the 

 city October 27, visiting some of the 

 golf links. He is the only real dev- 

 otee of this gentleman's game among 

 the profession in this end of the state. 

 He possesses a number of trophies of 

 his winnings, 



F. M. .Tohnson, of the A. L, Randall 

 Co,, was a visitor last week on his 

 way east. Clarke.

 ing an addition to his greenhouses.
