PITTSBURG. 



The Market. 



While business was in a sense good for 

 this time of the year, no one appreciates 

 it. There were weddings and numerous 

 other things going on all the week, and 

 as Sunday was Children's day in all the 

 churches, there was a heavy demand the 

 last of the week. But in spite of all 

 this, there were so many flowers that 

 what were sold were hardly missed out 

 of the immense stock coming into the 

 city. While the total of sales was all 

 right, yet, owing to the fact that stock 

 sold so cheap and that no one cleaned up, 

 everyone swore business was ' ' rotten. ' ' 



But this week sees the beginning of the 

 end^ as roses and carnations will both 

 shorten up, for roses must be replanted 

 and, owing to the prevailing custom of 

 planting carnations in the houses, they 

 are not allowed to remain on the benches 

 as late as in former years. 



The peonies and iris from outside are 

 done. There will be storage peonies for 

 some time, however, and no doubt we 

 will soon be looking for gladioli and 

 asters. Indoor sweet peas are * ' all in, ' ' 

 and the frequent rains have been spoiling 

 the outside stock, so that good peas have 

 been scarce. 



Various Notes. 



The Pittsburg Rose & Carnation Co. is 

 grading for another house, 50x400 feet, 

 which will be ready in time for planting 

 in carnations. 



G. Bate, of Cleveland, the Misses 

 Kidd, of Beaver, Pa., and Martin Beu- 

 kauf, of Philadelphia, were visitors.

A New Seedling 



CARNATION 



Springfield, Mass. — George Miellez, 

 son of the late Adolph Miellez, who has 

 been for the last nine years with D. J. 

 Castle, at Torrington, Conn., has opened 

 at 85 Main street an oflBce as advisory 

 horticulturist. With him will be associ- 

 ated his brother, Frederick. The young 

 men had the fortune of a thorough edu- 

 cation in their art from their father. At 

 present they have no grounds of their 

 own, but it is their purpose to sustain the 

 name of Miellez as practical growers of 

 plants.
