PITTSBURG. 



The Market 



A street salesman was arrested and 



taken before the court: 



Jndge: Your name? 



Faker: Leviniiki. 



Judge: Where were you born? 



Faker: Russia. 



Judge: Your business? 



Faker: Rotten! 



That about covers it. With a deluge 



of everything that blooms coming in, 



Lenten business has not been so slow for 



several years, but it seems as if every 



one is observing the season this year. 



I would be ashamed to mention some 



of the prices at which 1 have seen strictly 



first-class carnations, violets, tulips and 



lilies sold; it would almost disgrace the 



trade; but even that does not move all 



the stock coming in. 



Qub Meeting. 



The Florists' Club met March 3, with 

 a good attendance and a fine show of 

 plants. Those who exhibited were: H. 

 L. Blind & Bros., tulips and azaleas ; Her- 

 man Hein, azaleas; John Bader, azaleas, 

 palms and tulips; E. H. Boggs, garden- 

 er to Mr. Madsen, Cineraria stellata in 6- 

 inch pots, three feet across, the finest 

 ever shown in this city; James Fraser, 

 H. C. Frick's gardener, Primula obcon- 

 ica; Allegheny park, cinerarias; Schen- 

 ley park, samples of everything in the 

 bulb line. The whole collection of plants 

 was fine and a credit to the men who 

 grew them. The enthusiasm created by 

 the exhibition was well deserved, and 

 the discussion of the various good points, 

 and how to obtain them, held the boys 

 until a later hour than usual. 



The judges, P. S. Bandolph and John 

 Walker, recommended the following: 

 Mr. Boggs, special mention for azalea; 

 Mr. Hein, azalea, first prize; H. L. 

 Blind & Bros., azalea, second prize, and 

 first for tulips; Mr. Hein, for rambler 

 roses, first; Mr. Frasei, special mention 

 for primula. 



Various Notes. 



E. C. Ludwig and family have re- 

 turned from California, feeling much bet- 

 ter for their trip and enthusiastic over the 

 country which they have been visiting. 



Hoo-Hoo. 



I HAVE only been a subscriber to the 

 Review for about four months, but I 

 estimate it has saved me at least $25 

 in cash, paid out for stock, and I con- 

 sider it the best publication I receive.

MAY

is outselling Eachantress in this market. It sells for the same 

 price over the retail counter, and our store-men call for it in 

 preference. Isn't that enough evidence of its selling qualities ? 

 For the grower it is the most profitable light pink that faas 

 ever come to our notice* It is free and early, and every bloom 

 . is on a good stem and salable. We are shipping fine cuttings 

 now and shall be pleased to serve you. 



$12.00 PER 100} $100.00 PER 1000. 

 You make no mistake in buying this variety. We can also supply fine, strong 

 cuttings of all the leading varieties in quantity. Write us*
