PITTSBUEOH. 



The Market. 



The supply and demand last week 

 were about equal. The wholesalers clean 

 up all good stock early in the day. The 

 lower grades of flowers are sold cheap 

 and are in the minority. This is due to 

 weather conditions; the low tempera- 

 ture for the last eight days, with the 

 theiteomete^ registering 46 to 50 de- 

 grees, -has- greatly ■ helped all indoor 

 stock. Boses and carnations are to be 

 had that are equal in quality to those 



? produced at the height of their season. 



* Fine gladioli are offered at tempting 

 quotations. Asters are arriving only in 

 Incited quantities; this market sells al- 

 most entirely the northern New York 

 asters. The writer has just returned 

 from a trip through that section and 

 has found that all the early asters have 

 suffered on account of a long drought; 

 only those growers who have provided 

 for irrigation are shipping, and those- 

 only in limited quantities. However, 

 the later plantings of asters look fine 

 and there is even now a supply «qual to 

 the demand. There is a fair demand 

 for other outdoor flowers, such as phlox, 

 candytuft, sweet peas, gaillardias, fever- 

 few, etc. 



Various Notes. 



^ This is a sort of off year for the 

 building of greenhouses in this locality. 

 There has never bef(>re been a year in 

 which someone has not added some glass 

 of some consequence. If this summer 

 passes without new construction, it will 

 be a wonder. 



The most enthusiastic person over the 

 coming convention is De Forest Ludwig. 

 While only a few have announced them- 

 selves as going to the Chicago show, 

 Mr. Ludwig feels that Pittsburgh will 

 be well represented. If you intend to 

 join the party, call up the E. C. Ludwig 

 Moral Co., 24 Cedar. Mr. Ludwig will 

 be pleased to give you such informa- 

 tion as is desired. 



Samuel McClements, of Randolph & 

 McClements, left for Seal Harbor, Me.,

 Pittsburgh. 



'The newly reorganized firm of Gus- 

 tav & J. W. Ludwig, now the Ludwig 

 Floral Co., Inc., -^^111 be under the man- 

 agement of Harry Meuschke. Mr. 

 Meuschke is a grower and hias other in- 

 terests, but will devote most of his time 

 to the new company. 



Frank Faulk, of Faulk Bros., has 

 been combining business with pleasure. 

 He took his family on an auto trip and 

 visited his out-of-town customers. 



David Geddes, formerly of this city, 

 now of St. Louis, is here visiting a sick
