ORCHIDS 



Our importations of Catfleyas, Trianae, Labiata, Gigas, Sanderiana and Schroe- 

 derae, are on the way. Later we will receive Cattleyas, Mossiae, Gaskelllana, Perci- 

 valiana, Warnerii, Dowiana, etc.; also Dendrobium Formosum, Laelia Purpurata, 

 Oncidium Varicosum, and several others. 



We collect and import nothing but the choicest of plantd. No greater mistake can 

 be made than to buy cheap Orchids. We specialize in supplying the trade. Write us.

PITTSBURG. 



The Market. 



Pittsburg bad some weather experiences 

 last week; the worst was Wednesday 

 night, when the thermometer fell to zero, 

 with the strongest wind we have had this 

 winter, and it kept up all night and gave 

 the firemen the time of their lives to 

 keep the heat up in the greenhouses, but 

 there were no freeze-ups reported. 



Koses get more plentiful every day 

 and carnations and bulb flowers are com- 

 ing in a rush. Violets are a glut, with 

 little demand for them. 



The retail shops complain that they 

 have been compelled to place their hope's 

 on the dead, and there has not been a 

 great deal doing in that line; however, 

 things look brighter for April, as there 

 are quite a few good orders already 

 booked for large social affairs. 



Various Notes. 



Harry J. Hamm, of Hamilton avenue, 

 east end, erected a large conservatory 

 in the rear of his store, which has a novel 

 heating system of his father's invention, 

 which seems to be the cheapest and best 

 that we have ever seen, Mr. Hamm, Sr., 

 is quite a genius in the mechanical line, 

 and has a number of inventions of his 

 own, which are all time-savers for men 

 in the business. 



Pittsburg will be well represented at 

 the National Flower Show, although they 

 will not all get away together, as they, 

 usually do. Those already reported are: 

 Fred Burki, P. S. Eandolph, Paul Ran- 

 dolph, Stewart Eandolph, E. C. Eeine- 

 man, Wm. Falconei:, DeForest Ludwig, 

 George Burki, Samuel McClements, Al- 

 bert Lorch, J. W. McNeil, John Walker, 

 of Youngstown, 0. ; Mr. and Mrs. Kiger, 

 Marietta, O., and others yet to hear from, 



Phipps Conservatory, Schenley park, 

 has on exhibition the finest show of 

 cinerarias ever seen in this city. 



Lincoln I. Neff, who has been known 

 here in the trade for many years, has the 

 sympathy of all in the loss of his wife, 

 Alice Viola Gordon, in her forty-fifth 

 year, who died suddenly Thursday, 

 March 16. Burial was from the family 

 residence, 661 Orchard avenue, Bellevue. 



Hoo-Hoo. 



The McCallum Co. is featuring a fine 

 line of white lilac. 



Cromwell, Conn.— A. N. Pierson, Inc., 

 has ordered material for a house 70x383 

 from the King Construction Co.
