The Market. 



The weather is most delightful, with 

 no frost yet, though it is the middle 

 of October. Stock is arriving in such 

 quantities as to come near swamping 

 the wholesalers. Boses are fine and 

 plentiful. Carnations are getting bet- 

 ter every day and the supply is greater 

 than the demand. Beauties are abund- 

 ant. Lilies and valley, which were 

 scarce for a time, are now a glut. 

 Chrysanthemums are here in quantity, 

 including such varieties as Smith, Polly 

 Bose, Pacific, Unaka and Chrysolora, 

 all good stock, but as dahlias are hold- 

 ing out and the trade has got into the 

 habit of using them, all other stock 

 suffers. For the greenhouse men, there- 

 fore, a killing frost would seem like a 

 godsend. 



Club Meeting. 



An interesting club meeting was held 

 Tuesday evening, October 6, at the 

 Fort Pitt hotel. Dahlias were the 

 flowers of the evening and there were 

 some good exhibits. B. Vincent, Jr., 

 & Sons Co., White Marsh, Md., was 

 the only outside exhibitor. This firm 

 sent a collection of extra fine varieties. 

 Carl Becherer, of Dixmont, had a splen- 

 did collection, grown almost in the 

 city. It was the finest lot of home- 

 grown stock ever shown and called for 

 considerable explanation on the part 

 of those who have persistently claimed 

 that good dahlias could not be grown 

 successfully about Pittsburgh. William 

 Thompson, gardener for W. P. Snyder,
