The Weekly Florists^ Review* 



Septbubbb 80, 1900. 



PITTSBURG. 



The Market. 



The general tone of business is better 

 than for a long time. The demand along 

 all lines shows improvement and the feel- 

 ing among the trade in general is better. 

 There were several decorations last week, 

 with a fair amount of funeral work, and, 

 as the fall prospects are good, all that 

 was necessary to put the trade in a good 

 humor was a few busy days. 



Asters are getting scarcer every day 

 and what are coming in are poor. Gladioli 

 are not so plentiful and liUes clean up 

 every day. Boses are as fine as one could 

 wish and carnations as good as one can 

 expect. 



The last two days of the week there 

 was scarcely enough good stock to go 

 around. 



Vwioui Notes. 



The Pittsburg Cut Flower Ck). is re- 

 ceiving some fine roses and valley, which 

 find ready sale. 



The McCallum Co. is busy moving its 

 store-room to the second floor of the 

 building they have been occupying. 



The Pittsburg Florists' Exchange is 

 receiving quantities of gladioli and 

 Beauties. This company is receiving 

 estimates on cold storage refrigeration. 



J. F. Zimmerman has the sympathy of 

 his many friends in the loss of his father, 

 who died September 24. Mr, Zimmerman, 

 Sr., was one of the old residents and 

 was in his eighty-second year. 



E. C. Ludwig and family are at At- 

 lantic City.

 burg Cut Flower Co., Ltd., is visiting

Joseph Haube, of Charleroi, made up 

 a 6-foot column with a solid machine 

 wheel, the largest combination funeral 

 design seen here for a long time. It was 

 made for the employees of the Pittsburg 

 Plate Glass Co., for the funeral of Mr, 

 Hartupee.

 turned from his sunomer visit to England
