PITTSBURG. 



The Market. 



This week has started in with a good, 

 old-fashioned, warm spring day, which 

 will undoubtedly bring stock along; and 

 it is needed, as business showed consid- 

 erable improvement the last week and 

 the wholesale houses cleaned up every 

 day at fair prices, with a shortage on 

 carnations every day. Boses also showed 

 an advance in prices. 



Various Notes. 



On Thursday, April 25, one of the 

 worst storms experienced in this vicin- 

 ity struck our city and reached out in 

 the direction of Bakerstown, where it 

 overturned wagons and moved a barn 

 from its foundations. The Pittsburg 

 Bose and Carnation Co. had some dam- 

 age in the way of broken glass, but Mr. 

 Burki says that for a time he looked 

 for some of the houses to go down. 



The plantsmen are getting busy, and in 

 one instance a grower said he had one 

 order to plant at once. However, he 

 said he expected to have that order to 

 replant, as is usually the case if planting 

 is done as early as May 1 in this vicin- 

 ity. 



Walter Carney, of J. B. Murdoch & 

 Co., is the proud father of a twelve- 

 pound boy, their first. He is accepting 

 congratulations and passing out a good 

 brand of cigars. 



Ed McCallum, of the Pittsburg Flo- 

 rists' Exchange, is getting up a party to 

 go camping in Michigan in vacation time. 



W. C. Beckert, the seedsman, is up 

 against the real thing. The late season 

 held things back and this hot spell is 

 pushing them to the limit, working night 

 and day. 



Frank Faulk is just getting over an 

 illness. 



H. P. Joslin, the hardy plant special- 

 ist, has started for the season with the 

 Pittsburg Cut Flower Co. He is now 

 cutting fine narcissi and expects to have 

 Spanish iris in a short time. 



Hoo-Hoo. 



Pekin, III. — The pupils of the Mis- 

 sion Sunday school, who are soon to en- 

 gage in a flower contest, listened Sun- 

 day morning, April 21, to an interest- 

 ing talk by E. B. Alexander on the 

 preparation of flower beds and the cul- 

 tivation of plants. The seeds and prizes 

 for the Mission contest are furnished by 

 the Outdoor Art League. The flower 

 beds are to be four feet in diameter 

 and prizes of $2, $1 and 50 cents will be 

 given for the best display of flowers by 

 each family. There will also be special 

 prizes.
