The Weekly Florists' Review* 



September 2, 1909. 



PITTSBURG. 



The Market 



The tlosing of August finds the trade 

 generally in a hopeful condition, for, 

 while there is not nuu-h more than the 

 usual summer trade, the general business 

 conditions are such as to make all feel 

 that the coming season will be one of the 

 best in years. 



The wholesalers are getting in fine 

 stocks of Beauties, roses, chrysanthe- 

 muiiis, asters and gladioli. The asters 

 are particularly good, and are cleaned 

 up pretty well each day. 



Tlie retailers are just taking things 

 easy. All are in excellent spirits, hav- 

 ing returned from their vacations, and 

 are just anxious to have things open up. 



Various Note*. 



Fred Kochcr and family, of the Pitts- 

 burg Rose & Carnation Co., are at 

 Niagara Falls. 



Samuel McClements has been at the 

 Thousand Islands and will return by way 

 of New York and Philadelphia. 



A. W. Smith, Jr., has just returned 

 from Mountain Lake, Avhere he has been 

 spending a couple of months with his 

 family. Hoo-Hoo. 



ST. PAUL. 



The Market. 



"With the return of cooler weather, 

 trade has improved somewhat. Good 

 stock continues scarce. Asters are a 

 partial failure, most of the stock com- 

 ing in being of inferior quality and only 

 fit for funeral work. 



The first Golden Glow mums appeared 

 last week on this market. 



Weddings and funerals call for a good 

 many flowers.
