The Weekly Florists' Review* 



April 5, 1906. 



PITTSBURG. 



The Market. 



A peculiar week is what one must call 

 the past seven days. The first three days 

 business seemed at a standstill and the 

 weather was acting its very worst; the 

 wholesalers were about drowned out. 

 The last three days things took a change 

 for the better and a demand for stock 

 came from almost everywhere. By Sat- 

 urday night the wholesale houses were 

 cleaned out of almost everything. Of 

 course stock sold cheaply, but it is better 

 to let it go at some price than go to the 

 dump. Violets cleaned up much better, 

 probably owing to the grand opera. On 

 the whole, March of 1906 is reported to 

 have been a better month than the corre- 

 sponding period last year. This should 

 afford some satisfaction. 



VariotM Notes. 



^ Tuesday night is club night. The sub- 

 ject is Easter flowers. President Jones 

 has been around stirring up the boys, 

 and it is certain the meeting will be a 

 good one. 



Blind Bros, had quite an elaborate 

 decoration for the Jos. Home Co., for 

 its millinery opening. 



Bandolph & McClements were busy on 

 funeral work the last of the week. 

 Blankets of roses 8x10 feet are one of 

 their specialties, and they seem to come 

 pretty regularly. 



Mrs. E. A. Williams is showing some 

 novelties in plant arrangements for Eas- 

 ter which are bound to sell. 



A. W. Smith had two very handsome 

 windows this week, one of hydrangeas, 

 the other of azaleas. 



Walter Breitenstein, of Breitenstein & 

 Flemm, was "down east" recently, and 

 you will see the result in a day or two, 

 as he usually gets something out of the 

 ordinary and puts it out a few days be- 

 fore the holiday. As the buyers have not 

 become tired looking at it, he gets top 

 prices. 



Wm. Schmidt, of Johnstown, Pa., has 

 moved to a new location on Franklin 

 street, where he will have better facili- 

 ties for taking care of his growing trade. 



Chal Peterson, of East Liverpool, 0., 

 is happy in having his new store ready 

 for business.

for trial. We reiterate here— if it succeeds with 

 you as it does with us. it will prove the best 

 white carnation you ever grew. Despite the 

 variety's apparent failure in several places, we 

 stronsrly advise all growers to give it a trial. 

 We have been frank about its faults as developed 

 in other places. We doubt if these will develop 

 in many places.
