The Weekly Florists' Review* 



Januabt 19, 1905. 



PITTSBURG. 



The Market 



While we started in with twelve or 

 fifteen inches of snow January 9, and 

 had a couple of daye of rain and slush 

 in the middle of the week, winding up 

 Friday and Saturday with nice, clear, 

 frosty winter weather, business was fair 

 for the week. The stores were all do- 

 ing a nice business, while the receptions 

 and weddings helped along. Randolph 

 & McClements had a number of hand- 

 some decorations, among them several 

 for Mrs. H. H. Westinghouse, at one of 

 which the Westinghouse rose was used 

 on the table, making a very beautiful 

 decoration. 



Various Notes. 



John Murchie, of Sharon, and James 

 Walker, of Walker & McLean, Youngs- 

 town, O., visited the Pittsburg Bose & 

 Carnation Co. the past week and while 

 in the city Mr. Murchie showed several 

 of his new seedling carnations; one, a 

 bright red, was very favorably com- 

 mended. 



Walter Breitenstein was out canoeing 

 one day last week, trying his hand at 

 dodging cakes of ice in the Allegheny. 



A. W. Smith is forcing very fine lilac 

 and yellow trumpet narcissus. 



Ii. I. Neflf is back at business after a 

 siege of grip contracted during the holi- 

 days. Among those who are still ill are 

 Mrs. E. A. Williamfl, Wm. Flemm and 

 John Baldinger. 



We hear a good deal of talk about 

 the Carnation Convention. Already the 

 following have declared their intention 

 of going: I. S. Crall, Monongahela; 

 Mr. DeMuth, Connellsville; Mr. War- 

 rick, Washington; John Murchie, Sha- 

 ron; Mr. Walker, Youngstown; John 

 L. Wyland, Fred Burki, T. P. langhans. 

 W. A- Clarke, J. B. Murdoch and 

 James L. Wyland, and no doubt there 

 will be several others by starting time. 

 This delegation expects to go via Rich- 

 mond, Ind., stopping over there one day. 

 The P. C. C. & St. L. is the most direct 

 route, and we shall probably all go that 

 way. The stop-over at Richmond will 

 necessitate purchasing mileage, as the 

 one and one-third fare tickets are 

 not good for a stop-over. We 

 shall leave this city Monday even- 

 ing, arriving at Richmond early 

 Tuesday, leaving Richmond Tues- 

 day evening for Chicago. Any florists 

 from this section who desire to join this 

 party will please communicate with T. 

 P. Langhans, 504 Liberty avenue, Pitts- 

 burg. 



Marshall Anderson, of A. W. Smith's, 

 met with a serious accident Monil''" 

 morning on a Mt. Washington trollev 

 car via Tunnel. We all hope for a 

 speedy recovery. Hoo-Hoo.
