PITTSBUEOH. 



The Market. 



The old year closed in a most satis- 

 factory way, as the holiday week had 

 just enough going on to keep every- 

 one from getting lazy. Flowers dropped 

 down to the pre-Christmas prices the 

 next day after Christmas and there 

 was just enough business to clean up 

 all stock that came iu every day, which 

 made it quite comfortable for the 

 wholesalers. The reports of Christmas 

 business after all had been footed up 

 were more satisfactory even than the 

 first reports. All the shop people 

 seemed perfectly satisfied with their 

 business. New Year's trade was 

 divided between Saturday and Monday 

 and was just about up to former years. 



Various Notes. 



There has been considerable com- 

 nient on the action of one of our lead- 

 ing cemeteries, which has gone into the 

 business of making cemetery decora- 

 tions. It has been the custom of the 

 older cemeteries to decorate and care 

 for all graves for which an annuity 

 has been left, but they have never gone 

 into the business of making wreaths 

 and other decorations in competition 

 with the trade. In this case, however, 

 cards advertising the cemetery and 

 soliciting orders for wreaths, etc., were 

 sent to all lot owners. This was the 

 cause of considerable feeling, as it is 

 said that cemeteries have no right to 

 enter into a business of this kind, since 

 they pay no business tax and the trans- 

 action of such business is contrary to 

 the laws under which they have their 

 charters. 



The custom, among women, of wear- 

 ing flowers, which had almost dropped 

 out for several years, has certainly re- 

 turned, but for some reason violets do 

 not quite hold their own. Small rose- 

 buds, valley, orchids and daisies are 

 mostly in favor. 



Yellow trumpet narcissi are about 

 the only yellow flowers to be had just 

 now and the Pittsburgh Cut Flower Co. 

 has had a large sale for them. 



T. P. Langhans will do jury duty 

 during the first two weeks in January. 



The Florists' Club met January 2. 

 The subject was "Koses. " Officers 

 were nominated. 



Edward McCallum had the pleasure 

 of having his wife and two new sons 

 home for New Year's. Mrs. McCallum 

 is not yet well, but thought home sur- 

 roundings would do more than a hos- 

 pital toward a recovery. 



De Forest Ludwig, son of E. C. Lud- 

 wig, who is a Cornell student, was 

 home for the holidays. Hoo-Hoo.
