PITTSBUHG. 



The Market. 



The past week was one of the kind 

 that worries the wholesalers, stock of all 

 kinds raining on them in such quantities 

 that they were swamped every day until 

 Saturday, when most stock cleaned up 

 pretty well, but the week's results will 

 probably be very unsatisfactory to the 

 growers. To get rid of it, stock was sold 

 at ridiculously low prices. The retail 

 shops were not in any better shape, espe- 

 cially those growing part of their own 

 stock, for they were loaded to the gi^rds. 



Various Notes. 



The Blind boys had a bad half hour 

 May 2, when they had a heavy hail 

 storm which entirely stripped the trees 

 and shrubbery of all the young leaves and 

 blossoms, also cutting to pieces beds of 

 tulips, which were in their glory, and 

 breaking all the glass in the hotbeds. 

 However, the greenhouses escaped with- 

 out the loss of a single light. The hail 

 was quite large and so much of it that 

 you could take it up in shovels a half 

 hour after the storm. The same storm 

 passed over Bakerstown and the Pitts- 

 i)urg Bose & Carnation Co. say it was 

 the heaviest rain they ever saw but there 

 was no hail with it. 



The Pittsburg Cut Flower Co. had its 

 first peonies Saturday. 



J. W. Glenn, of Kittanning, has just 

 completed a number of changes in his 

 store, having put in a new front and re- 

 arranged and decorated the interior. His 

 cut flower trade has grown so that it is 

 crowding out some of the side lines which 

 he formerly carried. 



The South View Floral Co. has been 

 held back some on account of the weath- 

 er, which prevented completing the grad- 

 ing, but is rushing things now. Twenty 

 carpenters are at work getting the houses 

 ready for planting. Mr. Fischer is work- 

 ing almost day and night. 



The Florists' Club met Tuesday night. 

 The subject for discussion was bedding 

 plants. The meeting was a very interest- 

 ing one and should have been better at- 

 tended, but it is hard to get the boys into 

 the city when there is so much spring 

 work on hand. Hoo-Hoo. 



Here is another dollar; we cannot get
