 PITTSBUEG. 



The Market. 



There has been a steady improvement 

 in business for some time, and the last 

 week has been satisfactory in every 

 way. Among the retailers, all are 

 pleased with the business they are 

 doing. Society has awakened and the 

 number of social functions is increasing 

 right along. There has been plenty of 

 stock of all kinds and, with a fair de- 

 mand, the wholesalers are in good 

 humor. While prices are advancing, no 

 exorbitant prices have been asked. 



Various Notes. 



One local florist has an advertise- 

 ment which reads: "Something to be 

 thankful for; no advance in the price 

 of flowers for Thanksgiving." 



There will be enough mums for this 

 week, and that will about wind them up. 



Charles Koenig has started his bulb- 

 cutting season with some fine Paper 

 Whites and Romans. He will keep cut- 

 ting until spring. 



Violets, for some reason, have not 

 been as plentiful as usual this year. 



John Walker, of Youngstown, O., was 

 a visitor. Mr. Walker has purchased a 



Lilies of the Valley 



Bruns' celebrated Chicago Market Brand, 



for Xmas forcing. Order now. $1.75 per 100; 



$15.00 per 1000.
