PITTSBUEO. 



The Market. 



^Vij 



Business was quite satisfactory last 

 week. Stock of all kinds cleaned up 

 nicely, except Beauties, which seemed 

 too high priced for the trade to handle; 

 but outside of that one flower, every- 

 thing was cleaned up Saturday night. 

 Chrysanthemums are over, except a few 

 stragglers which will not be likely to 

 cut much of a figure, and lilies, which 

 had to take a back seat during chrys- 

 anthemum time, will now come into 

 their own. Paper Whites and Bomans 

 are also with us in quantity and, if the 

 dark weather we have been having con- 

 tinues, will be needed. Violets have 

 not been overplentiful and are bring- 

 ing better prices than last year, as the 

 larger retail stores can do bettjpr with 

 this flower when the street mw do not 

 have them. 



Various Notes. 



.'tV'* 



The retail shops all seem to be pleased 

 with their share of the Thanksgiving 

 business and report having an excellent 

 trade. They also say that the outlook 

 is good for two months' fine business, 

 as the social calendar is filled with 

 numerous affairs which will help us all. 

 A more optimistic feeling seems to pre- 

 vail than has been the case for a long 

 time. The wholesale men eay they are 

 always thankful when chrysanthemums 

 are gone, as there is little profit and a 

 great deal of labor in handling them. 



We are having continued dark 

 weather, with an all-day rain Novem- 

 ber 28, which will probably make stock 

 quite scarce. 



John Madden, who returned from 

 California some time ago, is in the 

 Kandolph & McClements Penn avenue 

 store. Hoo-Hoo. 



NEW BEDFOED, MASS. 



The Market. 



Thanksgiving business was good. 

 Flowers were rather scarce, with a re- 

 sultant increase in prices. Carnations 

 retailed at 60 and 75 cents per dozen; 

 roses, $2 per dozen, with a few as low 

 as $1.50; Paper White, 60 cents; violets, 

 $2 per hundred, and some nice miims 

 were seen at $2.50 per dozen. The 

 weather was ideal, thus greatly aiding 

 in delivery. 



Prices remain about the same this 

 week, but mums are becoming scarce 

 and will soon be entirely gone. Funeral 

 work has been quite plentiful of late. 

 Stevia is now to be seen here and is 

 largely used for bouquets and design 

 work. 



Various Notes. 



Friday, November 25, witnessed the 

 big annual society ball of this city and 

 large orders for flowers for the affair 

 were handled by William P. Peirce, E, 

 H. Woodhouse, E. H. Chamberlain, E. 

 E. Nofftz, Peter Murray, William H. 

 Davenport, and others. Roses and vio- 

 lets were principally used and Mr. 

 Chamberlain says he sold 1,000 of the 

 former and 2,600 of the latter, besides 

 about 700 mums. Good prices were real- 

 ized and they all were well satisfied 

 with the trade for both Thanksgiving 

 and Friday. 



Peter Murray cut over 5,000 mums in 

 his houses this season and his new 

 house of carnations is in fine shape.
