PITTSBURG. 



The Market. 



Christmas week was somewhat unsat- 

 isfactory. The weather was extremely 

 cold the first of the week, causing peo- 

 ple to hold off in their buying. Friday 

 it rained all day. Saturday, however, 

 was an ideal shopping day and the peo- 

 ple did some heavy buying; it is gen- 

 erally reported as having been one of 

 the biggest days ever experienced by 

 the retail men, who worked night and 

 day getting out their orders. 



There were enough flowers of all 

 kinds, even carnations, to satisfy all 

 demands, and there was considerable 

 cutting of prices by Saturday, Decem- 

 ber 24. Special Beauties were offered 

 as low as $50 per hundred, which had a 

 tendency to make those dissatisfied who 

 had already purchased their stock at 

 $100. 



Greens of all kinds seemed plentiful 

 enough, except pine, and there were 

 plenty of Christmas trees to haul to the 

 dump Monday morning. 



Plants did exceptionally well and 

 plantsmen have no complaint. 



Various Notes. 



Samuel McClements has the sympa- 

 thy of his friends in the death of his 

 sister, Friday morning, December 23. 

 Just two years ago Mr. McClements 

 lost another sister, on the same date, 

 December 2.3. It seems particularly sad 

 that a family who live so much for 

 each other should have death come just 

 at the holidays, when it is simply im- 

 possible for a man with such an exten- 

 sive business to let go of it, 



IIoo-Hoo.
