PKBntJART 6, 1908. 



PITTSBURG. 



The Market 



The market last • week was only- 

 fair, the brand of weather we have been 

 getting being partly responsible. It was 

 bad most of the week, and Saturday, 

 wlien most of the dealers hoped to 

 clean up, was the worst of all, with 

 snow and rain all the morning and wind, 

 flnow and zero for the afternoon and 

 evening. So there was considerable left 

 over. 



Stock of all kinds is very plentiful 

 and cheap, especially Paper Whites, tulips 

 and freesias. Lilies are now quite plen- 

 tiful. 



Vaxtout Notes. 



The delegation to the carnation con- 

 vention returned Friday morning, Janu- 

 ary 31. They reported having had a 

 fine time and a good convention. Every 

 one was satisfied, especially the com- 

 mittee which worked for the convention 

 for 1909. A tie vote was cast for the 

 two cities, Pittsburg and Indianapolis, 

 each receiving 83 votes. At an opportune 

 time the Pittsburg delegation withdrew 

 and moved that a unanimous vote be cast 

 in favor of Indianapolis. Many prom- 

 ises of delegates from Indianapolis, Chi- 

 cago and other western cities were given 

 to our delegation to support us at the 

 convention for 1910 and select Pittsburg 

 as the meeting place. 



The following men stopped over to 

 visit Fred Burki at the office of the 

 Pittsburg Cut Flower Co.: Nick Zweifel, 

 Milwaukee, Wis.; J. S. Wilson, Western 

 Springs, 111.; A. Poehlmann, Chicago, 

 111.; John A. Evans, Richmond, Ind. 

 While they struck the worst weather of 

 the year, they made the most of it and 

 saw all that was to be seen. 



Others who stopped here on their way 

 home were: C. P. Dudley, Parkersburg, 

 W. Va.; W. R. Maebius, Lock No. 4, 

 Pa. ; I. S. Crall, Monongahela, Pa. 



Joseph Jones was smiling all day 

 and told me in confidence toward even- 

 ing that it was another girl. 



Henry Baldinger, one of the oldest 

 gardeners in this vicinity, has the sym- 

 pathy of his host of friends in the loss 

 of his wife. Mrs. Baldinger was in 

 the best of health when her daughters left 

 home Saturday morning, and before they 

 could open their stands in the markets 

 messengers were there to inform them of 

 the death of their mother. Hoo-Hoo. 



An involuntary petition in bankruptcy 

 was filed in the United States district 

 court January 27 against Lincoln Neff. 

 The claims of the three petitioning credi- 

 tors amount to $4,100.
