PITTSBURGH. 



The Market. 



Pittsburgh has had a killing frost; 

 no more outside flowers from this sec- 

 tion. The market shows a decided im- 

 provement, with everything cleaned up 

 promptly and regularly for the first 

 time in a long while. The cut of roses 

 is gradually increasing. Carnations are 

 more plentiful, but still are not nearly 

 up to the demand. Lilies and valley 

 are still scarce, but chrysanthemums, 

 including Unaka, Polly Rose and 

 Chrysolora, are getting more plentiful 

 every day. Beauties have decreased in 

 supply considerably, but the tone of 

 the market is fine and there is just 

 enough snap about the weather to keep 

 everyone in a good humor. 



Club Meeting. 



The Florists' Club met Tuesday eve- 

 ning, October 5. The subject was 

 dahlias. R. Vincent, Jr., & Sons Co., 

 White Marsh, Md., was the only out- 

 side exhibitor and had a fine collection. 

 Several private gardeners showed splen- 

 did collections of flowers, many of 

 them seedlings. We have heard much 

 in past years about the little bugs 

 wh\(eh destroyed all the dahlias in this 

 vicinity, but, after seeing the splendid 

 display grown right at home, one mem- 

 ber came to the conclusion that the 

 little bugs must have been in the fel- 

 lows' heads. 



George Wessenauer, the spray man, 

 of Sewickley, also brought in a lot of 

 fruit, to show that we can grow per- 

 fect fruit right in the city if we will 

 only spray our trees scientifically. 



The meeting was most interesting 

 and a good crowd was present. 



Various Notes. 



Harvey Sheaf returned October 11 

 from the Pacific coast. He looked fine 

 and reported a splendid time. 



John R. Bracken, landscape archi- 

 tect for the A. W. Smith Co., gave an 

 illustrated lecture at the East Liberty 

 y. M. C. A. on ^"Landscape Architec- 

 ture and the Ornamentation of Home 

 Grounds." This was the first of a 

 series of lectures aiming to create a 

 greater interest in scientifically doing 

 the work which, in the past, the aver- 

 age builder has hired a laborer to do. 



Clarke. 



Clinton, Mass. — The Sawyer Floral 

 Co. recently received an order for 35,000 

 pansy plants from Mills the Florist, of 

 Jacksonville, Fla. 



GERANIUMS 



It is the consensus of opinion that the supply of Gera- 

 niums is going to be somewhat short this coming season, on 

 account of so many growers being short of stock plants. 

 Our stock was never in better condition than it is now,, so 

 that we anticipate no difficulty whatever in filling orders; 

 but at the same time we would suggest that the surest way 

 is to let us book your order at an early date. New cata- 

 logue and price list for 1916 is ready for distribution; a 

 request will bring it if accompanied by a business card. 



We have a splendid lot of Geraniums in 3-inch pots, ready for 

 shipment, just right for the southern trade or winter blooming, 

 $3.00 per 100; $25.00 per 1000. 



Coleus, Moonvines, Heliotropes, Lemon Verbenas, Parlor 

 Ivy, Ag^eratum, Alyssum, Alternantheras, Salvias, from 

 2-inch pots, at $2.00 per 100; 3-iBch pots. $3.r0 per 100. 



Lettuce and Cabbaee Plants, at $1.00 per 1000; 10.000 and over, 85c per 1000 

 Parsley Plants, extra strong, for forcing 50c per 100; $3.60 per 1000
