. The American florist : a weekly journal for the trade. Floriculture; Florists. 794 The American Florist. Nov McCallum Co., Cleveland BEAUTIES of Quality. PITTSBURG Cleveland. TKADE SATISFACTORY. The cold rains and winds of the past week have finished some of the dahlias and other outdoor stock, with but few exceptions. Chrysanthemums are still in the supremacy from immense Col. D. Appletons to the small pompons, and with the medium stock they fill the counters of wholesaler and retailer. Roses and carnations remain about the same. The stock is excellent and the demand good. Easter lilies are in big supply, with only a limited call, and callas are beginning to arrive. Cos- mos is plentiful. Lily of the valley and orchids are having a fair demand. Pumpkins, squash and corn stalks are being used for many window decora- tions for Hallowe'en. Taking every- thing altogether the week's business was entirely satisfactory. NOTES. A jug of excellent sweet cider was on tap at the Florists' Club rooms last Monday evening, which was made by Frank Friedly and was pronounced ?'A No. 1" by all who sampled it. Come along, boys, the season for cider has just begun. Knoble Bros, are making some ex- tensive alterations in their store on West Twenty-fifth street. The entire front part is being remodeled, and the greenhouses which stand in the rear have been greatly enlarged, at consid- erable cost. The J. M. Gasser Co. held an open- ing at their retail store in the new Swetland building, the past week. The store was very artistically decorated and many floral designs from brother florists were seen on every side. A large quantity of flowers and dec- jrative greens were used for the open- ing of the New Euclid Arcade on Oc- tober 28, a number of the merchants giving flowers as souvenirs. Miss O'Connor, formerly with the Smith & Fetters Co., has opened a re- tail store at 2650 Superior avenue, where she will conduct an up-to-date tlorists' establishment. C. F. B. Tacoma, Wash.
