PITTSBURG. 



The Market. 



Well, it was a midsummer week, and it 

 was all you could expect. I do not know 

 that it was the hot weather's fault, for 

 the last week in July is always one of 

 the worst, but business was almost at a 

 standstill. 



There are some fine roses, Killarney 

 and White Killarney, Kaiserin and My 

 Maryland almost up to winter quality, 

 with good Beauties and lilies, but the 

 market is flooded with gladioli and asters, 

 and there is no price on anything. 



The wholesale houses are all short- 

 handed on account of vacations, and those 

 left behind are working full time trying 

 to handle the gladioli and asters that are 

 swamping them. Many of the asters 

 coming in are poor and will hardly pay 

 the express charges. 



The market and street stands are doing 

 most of the business that is being done, 

 but they are compelled to sell at prices 

 which bring them little profit for the 

 quantity of stock they handle. 



Various Notes. 



Fred Burki says this is to be the finest 

 convention ever held by the S. A. F. and 

 is advising everyone he meets not to miss 

 it, as this city expects to send a good 

 delegation. 



The Pittsburg Cut Flower Co. is get- 

 ting good roses, also some fine yellow 

 chrysanthemums. 



The Pittsburg Florists' Exchange 

 might be called gladiolus headquarters, 

 from the quantity they are receiving. 



J. B. Murdoch & Co. are getting in 

 some good carnations for such hot 

 weather. 



The McCallum Co. is showing good sum- 

 mer Beauties. 



John Madden, of H. L. Blind & Bros., 

 is on a two weeks' vacation at Ligonier. 

 W. Paul and family, from the same shop, 

 have just returned from Mingo, O., where 

 they spent two weeks. 



Geo. Marshall, of the Pittsburg Cut 

 Flower Co., is at Atlantic City and if 

 some one does not head him off he will 

 go broke on comic postals, for he is flood- 

 ing the town. Hoo-Hoo. 



Philadelphia, Pa. — William J. Smith 

 has secured a building permit for five 

 greenhouses, two 10x87 feet and three 

 16x80 feet, at 4735 H street.
