PITTSBUEOH. 



The Market. 



There has been quite an improvement 

 in the demand for cut flowers, but lit- 

 tle difference in prices. In some in- 

 stances they have not been quite so 

 good, but as there has been a pretty 

 fair cleaning up there is not much com- 

 plaint from the wholesalers. As the 

 retailers are making a fine showing of 

 blooming plants, their stores look fine 

 and Easter expectations are good. The 

 indications are for heavy supplies of 

 stock, which no doubt will keep prices 

 down and encourage increased sales, 

 which is nearly always the case when 

 flowers are within reach of the masses. 



Various Notes. 



Mrs. E. A. Williams is taking ad- 

 vantage of the lenten season for spring 

 house-cleaning and redecorating her 

 store, which will be completed this 

 week. 



Bandolph & McClements are in the 

 midst of plans for their big new store 

 on Penn avenue, near Highland, which, 

 with the new conservatories recently 

 built, will be one of the show places 

 of our city. The new store, when com- 

 pleted, will take the place of the Penn 

 avenue and the Baum street stores 

 which are now being operated. The 

 new place is one of the most desirable 

 locations in the east end. 



The Zieger Co. closed its Highland 

 avenue store on the expiration of the 

 lease, and now has a temporary store on 

 Penn avenue. 



This city seems peculiar. In order 

 to do business one must be right in 

 the line of travel, as the general pub- 

 lic will not go a step out of its road if 

 they can help it and the trade must bow 

 to the whim, no matter how high the 

 rent. 



The Phipps conservatory, Schenley 

 park, is rearranging the houses for the 

 annual Easter show, and Foreman John 

 Jones is moving his stock around so as 

 to have it come just right. He antici- 

 pates the finest show ever held and, 

 after the long, hard winter, people are 

 hungry for something of that kind. 



Chas. Koenig, the lily grower, says 

 Pittsburgh will have enough lilies this 

 year to supply the country. 



Born to Mr. and Mrs. Jim Higgins, 

 Friday, March 15, a 10-pound girl, and 

 don't forget Jim is some proud father. 



Hoo-Hoo. 



Holliston, Mass. — J. E. Long, on Avon 

 street, suffered rather serious loss in a 

 recent gale. A considerable proportion 

 of his glass was broken and his wind- 

 mill was blown down.

A Tryout Greenhouse 



We call it a "tryout" because the owner has rather extensive ideas of the 

 size of house he will eventually have, but he had us build this small one for 

 him as a tryout to prove to himself that a greenhouse gives all the fun and 

 satisfaction we say it does. It is so located and arranged that it can be enlarged 

 economicsdly and lose none of its attractiveness— a plan that is planned ahead, 

 as it were. 



Perhaps you would like a tryout house? 



If you write us at once, we will send you a catalogue by return mail. 



When you do write, send along the name of your employer, so we can 

 mail him a catalogue same day yours goes.
