The Weekly Florists' Review^ 



April 2, 1908. 



^ 



PITTSBURG. 



ThtVUxket, 



A weekly report of trade is not the 

 most spicy reading just at present; the 

 best one can say is that there is no 

 change in the general condition. Stock 

 has been coming in more plentifully every 

 day and the commission men have been 

 kept on the jump trying to take care of 

 it. Saturday is the only day they come 

 anywhere near cleaning up, and I have 

 not yet become hardened enough to quote 

 the prices at which it is done. One com- 

 mission man says he carries a card in 

 his hand, and when he quotes prices to 

 anyone he writes it on the card, as he is 

 ashamed to hear himself speak it aloud. 



The retailers do not complain much, 

 however. As they examine the general 

 situation, they say our business is hold- 

 ing up as well as can be expected under 

 the circumstances. But the growers are 

 just as game and I have not heard them 

 make much complaint. They seem to be 

 satisfied with what they are getting. 



Variotn Notes. 



The South View Floral Co. opened a 

 retail store April 1, taking the building 

 on Carson street which M. S. Stafford 

 vacated. 



M. S. Stafford took the building on 

 Carson street formerly occupied by H. L. 

 Blind & Bros. 



Blind & Bros, vacated the south side 

 store and opened their new store on Cen- 

 ter avenue, east end, April 1. 



Breitenstein & Flemm were out of 

 business part of this week, as they va- 

 cated the old store April 1 and their new 

 building will not be ready for business 

 before next Monday. 



Samuel McClements, who has been so 

 seriously ill, is reported today showing 

 some improvement. 



There will be a show of blooming 

 plants at the store room of the Pittsburg 

 Cut Flower Co., 222 Oliver avenue, Tues- 

 day, April 7, that being the regular meet- 

 ing of the Pittsburg Florists' Club. All 

 members should be present, as a fine 

 show is assured. 



The death of Samuel Gass is reported 

 in the obituary column. - Hoo-Hoo. 



Denison, Tex. — E. Farley, proprietor 

 of the Denison Greenhouses, has had a 

 large trade during the winter, and has 

 had diflBculty in attending to it on ac- 

 count of illness at his home. The de- 

 mand, in fact, was greater than he could 

 supply, though he bought all the avail- 

 able stock in his neighborhood in the ef- 

 fort to fill his orders. He will soon add 

 about 1,500 feet of glass to his plant, 

 and already has part of the material or- 

 dered.
