PITTSBURaH, PA. 



The Market. 



Pittsburgh is doing right well, thank 

 you; about the usual amount of cut 

 flower trade in the retail shops, but they 

 have been so busy with plants that they 

 did not notice the comparative dullness 

 in the cut flower end of it. 



The wholesale houses had the time 

 of their lives last week selecting the 

 best of their stock for their trade and 

 canning the balance, and at that will 

 probably make fair reports to their 

 growers — at least better than some 



other years we have seen. 



Stock has held up well through the 

 hot spell and some good roses and carna- 

 tions are coming in, but the June wed- 

 dings and commencement exercises will 

 take care of them pretty well. 



Plantsmen are still busy and find it 

 difficult to get labor. One grower made 

 the remark that "it hurts to have to 

 pay laborers more than the gardeners 

 usually get, but I had to do it to get my 

 planting done." 



Various Notes. 



Rain is badly needed, as the carnation 

 plants in the field are beginning to 

 suffer.

 burgh Cut Flower Co., and Miss Elsie

PEORIA, ILL. 



one of our oldest market gardeners. 

 The young people left for Chicago and 

 will make the trip around the lakes, 

 returning about July 1. 



The Florists' Club met Tuesday eve- 

 ning, June 4, at the Fort Pitt hotel. A 

 fair-sized crowd was present. "Peo- 

 nies" was the subject of the evening 

 and the Elliott Nurseries, of Springdale, 

 Pa., showed the finest line from their 

 immense collection ever exhibited be- 

 fore this club, for which they were 

 awarded a first-class certificate. 



Randolph & McClements showed 

 plants of the small yellow calceolaria 

 which they grow for cut flowers; where 

 yellow is wanted it is fine. Neil Mc- 



Callum had a collection of cut shrubbery 

 and herbaceous flowers which were in- 

 teresting, especially with Mr. McCallum 

 to talk about them. 



Several new members were added and 

 it was decided not to hold a picnic this 

 year. 



Mrs. E. A. Williams has arranged to 

 go to her cottage at Geneva for the 

 summer. She will leave as soon as she 

 disposes of a few more wedding orders 

 which she has on hand. 



Earl Tipton, with the A. W. Smith 

 Co., has been off duty suffering from 

 blood poison caused by rose thorns. He 

 is getting along all right and expects to 

 be on the job in a few days.
