PITTSBURG. 



The Market 



Weddings and commencements have 

 kept most of the retailers very busy the 

 past week and have given them no end 

 of trouble, as most of the buyers are not 

 regular flower buyers and therefore do 

 not know what to expect at this time of 

 the year and seem to think they should 

 be able to get fine stock as long as they 

 are willing to pay for it. But the hot 

 weather put the fine stock out of busi- 

 ness. In the wholesale houses they have 

 had no trouble in disposing of all the 

 good stock they could get, but the 

 amount of "crap" which was unsalable 

 would disgust anyone who had to han- 

 dle it. However, considering the sea- 

 son, there is not much cause for com- 

 plaint. 



The plantsmen have now finished for 

 this year and most of them admit having 

 had a very fair season. All report that 

 good stock sold at good prices. 



Various Notes. 



Mike Blaha is confined to his bed, suf- 

 fering from a bad case of poison ivy con- 

 tracted while gathering ferns the past 

 week. 



The committee who have charge of the 

 florists' picnic has decided on a ride on 

 the good steamer Francis Torrance. The 

 boat will leave the foot of Wood street 

 at 8:30 a. m., rain or shine, Wednesday, 

 July 12, and run up to Moss' grove, 

 where there will be athletic sports of all 

 kinds. Many useful and beautiful prizes 

 have already been subscribed. The com- 

 mittee are hustlers and there is no doubt 

 about a good time and, even should it 

 rain, the boat will go that much farther 

 up the river and the dancing floor is the 

 best in the country. Amusements of 

 many kinds are being provided for. The 

 committee especially wants the members 

 to bring their wives and children, and 

 those who have no wives should bring 

 their sweethearts. There are to be some 

 special features for the ladies and chil- 

 dren. 



Phil Langhans, of the Cut Flower Co., 

 is a noted fisherman and will provide fish- 

 ing tackle for all who care to fish, but 

 you will have to do your own swearing, 

 for he is a Lutheran.

 Cut Flower Co. some fine hardy phlox
