The Market. 



The vacation season is about over 

 and nearly all the Boys are home and 

 ready for business. But, whether it is 

 due to the war agitation or some other 

 cause, trade shows no improvement over 

 that of last month. Optimism is prev- 

 alent, however, and one firm reports 

 seven wedding orders booked for this 

 month. A week or two will find the 

 trade moving along satisfactorily. 

 Stock of all kinds is plentiful. Gladioli 

 and asters are more than abundant, 

 with everything else in quantity and 

 good. Chrysanthemums are promised 

 about the middle of the month, so 

 there is not likely .ioj>e much shortage 

 of stock this fall.*^™:' 



VarioBB Notes. 



The McCuUoch Drug Co. is adding 

 cut flower departments to two of its 

 stores. Another retail store is promised 

 for the east side district, so there are 

 still those who have faith in the busi- 

 ness. -*• 



There is a rumor that another of our 

 local growers is considering opening a 

 wholesale house here, to sell his output. 



Phil Langhans and family made a 

 trip by automobile to Bedford Springs 

 on Labor day. 



The Florists' Club met last week and 

 had an enthusiastic meeting. Among 

 other things, all the dead wood was 

 trimmed out. The club now is large 

 enough and has enough good, active 

 members so that it is not considered 

 wise to carry any who have not enough 

 interest to keep up their dues. The sub- 

 ject for discussion was the gladiolus. 

 There were also some reports from the 

 convention. I am not sure whether it 

 was such a good convention or such a 

 good trip, but all were pleased and 

 made good rep<tfts. 



John Jones^ of Sehenley park, has 

 just returned from his vacation, most 

 of which was 4>&it in the east. All of 

 his time was spent in looking up what 

 the other fellow is doing, which helps 

 to account for some of the good things 

 we see at &!henley park.- ^ 



George M<^Callum has Iseen enjoying 

 a vacation. There were just tivQC 

 things necessary for him to have a 

 good time and he had them — time, his 

 Saxon and a light haired girl! 



The Pittsburgh Cut Flower Co. re- 

 ports the sale of carnation plants as 

 exceptionally good, with shipments go- 

 ing to both coasts. Clarke.
