The Weekly Florists' Review* 



Afbil 18, 1912. 



PITTSBUBOH, FA. 



The Market. 



After Easter, which was quite satis- 

 factory, came springlike weather, 

 bringing a deluge of stock, which the 

 utmost efforts of the wholesalers failed 

 to move. Prices took a tumble on 

 the best of it and the poorer grades 

 went where they belong in times of a 

 glut. 



The retailers all say trade has been 

 good and they have used large quan- 

 tities of stock, but it is only a drop 

 in the bucket compared with the quan- 

 tity coming in. 



Various Notes. 



The flower shows in the city parks 

 are still commanding the attention of 

 visitors from this city and the sur- 

 rounding country. 



The Florists' Club was certainly 

 given a treat by Prof. Brashear at the 

 last meeting. His lecture brought a 

 large attendance and the luncheon 

 afterward was an enjoyable feature. 



A few growers were gathered in one 

 of the wholesale houses discussing bulb 

 growing. Evidently none of them have 

 made any money in bulbs this season 

 and it was their verdict that there 

 are too many bulbs grown in this sec- 

 tion. 



Fred Burki met with a painful and 

 somewhat serious accident just before 

 Easter, when he injured his foot. This 

 has kept him confined to his home, 

 but he thinks it is showing improve- 

 ment, although it will be some time be- 

 fore he will be able to do much walk- 

 ing. 



Mr. and Mrs. Harry Bayersdorfer, 

 Philadelphia, were visitors last week. 



De Forest Ludwig, who was home for 

 the Easter holidays, has returned to 

 Cornell to complete his course. 



California privet seems to be quite 

 generally killed this winter, some old 

 hedges suffering more than the newly 

 planted ones. Hoo-Hoo. 



Weymouth, N. J. — Chas. C. Brown, 

 known as "The Gatherer of All Deco- 

 rative Supplies," such as holly, pine, 

 sphagnum, etc., has closed his establish- 

 ment here, but expects to resume busi- 

 ness soon at some other location.
