PITTSBURG. 



The Market 



Rain, rain, more rain and colder was 

 the bill of fare from Sunday until Satur- 

 day of last week, with hail in some of 

 the near-by localities on Wednesday. 

 This liad the effect of shortening up the 

 cut of roses, and lilies seemed to be get- 

 ting scarcer the past few days. Violets 

 have disappeared altogether. Carnations 

 are still very much in evidence. Some 

 of the street-stands sold them as low as 

 15 cents per dozen. But taken altogether 

 the general business was better than the 

 week previous. 



Various Notes. 



Lincoln I. Xelf made two floral 

 blankets the past week; one of them 

 containing about 4,000 pink roses, the 

 other about the same number of white 

 roses. 



Wm. Thompson, who had been em- 

 ployed by B, L. Elliott, at the Cheswick 

 greenhouses and remained in the em- 

 ploy of L. I. Neff when he purchased 

 them, was killed in a sand bank last 

 Wednesday. He had finished loading his 

 wagon and it is presumed got out of the 

 sudden storm when the bank caved in 

 on him. He was dead when found. 



The home of Miss Geib, stenographer 

 of the Pittsburg Cut Flower Co., was 

 visited by thieves one day last week. 

 She lost a small sura of money. 



The frost which is usually due about 

 this time arrived last Saturday night 

 and in the low sections finished the 

 beans, tomatoes, and any other soft stuff 

 above ground. 



J. J. Zimmerman, who was drowned 

 at Ocean Park, Cal., was buried from 

 Lowries Chapel, Allegheny, Monday, 

 May 20. 



The plantsmen are having more than 

 their share of trouble. Two weeks of con- 

 tinuous rain kept them from getting 

 anything done outside, and as everyone 

 wants planting done by Decoration day, 

 they are working day and night now 

 that the weather has changed.
