The Weekly Florists' Review. 



NOVBMBXB 7, 1907. 



PITTSBURG. 



The Market. 



One looking into the flower shops would 

 have thought from the amount of stock 

 in sight, and the extent of the store dec- 

 orations, that business was booming. But 

 when you asked the man he usually said 

 things are quiet. This is Horse Show 

 week, and we expected a rush, but it has 

 not yet materialized. This was a com- 

 mon complaint. However, there was a 

 fair amount of business done in a small 

 way. Chrysanthemums are catching on, 

 but not at fancy prices. The m^ium 

 priced stock is the only thing wanted. 

 Beauties and lilies, which have been plen- 

 tiful, are not in the usual demand. 



Various Notes. 



Eandolph & McClements have had some 

 large decorations, among them several for 

 Hallowe'en, in which autumn leaves, 

 witches, pumpkin-head and other spookish 

 things formed a part. 



Mrs. E. A. "Williams took care of a 

 number of social affairs last week, includ- 

 ing several dinner decorations in connec- 

 tion with the horse show. 



H. L. Blind & Bros, had several wed- 

 dings and cleaned up a lot of mums last 

 week. ' • 



The Zieger Co., although the shop is 

 not completed and the force is working 

 under diflBculties, is picking out some of 

 the good jobs. 



E. C. Ludwig had several strenuous 

 days with funeral work during the week, 

 although the general market trade was 

 not up to the mark. 



There was lots of stock of all kinds in 

 the wholesale houses last week. Even car- 

 nations were more plentiful and the rain 

 all day Saturday did not help them to 

 clean up to any great extent. There was 

 still good stock on hand Saturday night. 

 Lilies and Beauties were more plentiful 

 and prices all along the line were pretty 

 cheap. Hoo-Hoo. 



Brooklyn, N. Y. — D. H. Hollings- 

 worth completed last month a prosperous 

 first year of business at 1146 De Kalb 

 avenue. Mr. Hollingsworth 's main es- 

 tablishment is located at Seabright, N. 

 J., and he recently started a nursery at 

 Eatonville, N. J., where landscape gar- 

 dening is made a specialty.
