BUFFALO. 



Much cooler weather is filling up 

 the city with its normal population 

 and it has given a start to business, 

 which we are all glad to receive. As- 

 ters have tjeen a very important flow- 

 er this summer and though large 

 quantities were grown there were few 

 of good quality that went to waste. 

 Carnations from under glass are mak- 

 ing their appearance; rather abbre- 

 viated stems so far, but we are glad 

 to see them. Some splendid gladiolus 

 in large quantities have come here 

 from the Rochester growers. 



There was an unusually well at- 

 tended meeting of the Florists' Club 

 on Friday night. Hard working men 

 left their business and came in twenty 

 and thirty miles to give us their aid 

 and council, but young men who only 

 had two or three blocks to walk 

 couldn't find the time. They must 

 have a wonderful business that they 

 could not spare one hour after 8 p. 

 m., and if their society duties are so 

 urgent every night in the week it is 

 too crowded to be healthy. 



Those who had attended the con- 

 vention had to recite its wonders to 

 those who were not fortunate enough 

 to attend. Some good earnest busi- 

 ness was done and we are starting off 

 for a year's work with enthusiasm. 



Visitors of late have been Mr. R. 

 Cameron, of the Victoria Park, Ont., 

 Mr. Henson and Mr. Noble, of Toron- 

 to. Mr. Barker, of the American Flor- 

 ist, called on his way home. Mr. John 

 N. May, who has been on a visit to 

 his son Harry, at Painesville, gave 

 us a call. He was well pleased with 

 the look of the Pan-American pro- 

 gress. 



The storm of last Tuesday night, or 

 more properly Wednesday morning, 

 arrived on time: 78 miles an hour was 

 speedy enough, but why should we 

 even mention the little blow after the 

 awful calamity that visited the south? 

 The yellow journalism that afflicts 

 every city came out with their sheets 

 and big type, and most exaggerated 

 stories of the damage done to the 

 Pan-American buildings. I am glad 

 to say the damage done was very 

 slight and nothing that was completed 

 suffered at all, and in a few days the 

 effects of the storm will lie entirely 

 remedied. It has been a splendid test 

 of the strength of the lofty buildings 

 which stood it grandly and we are 

 not likely to get such a breeze again 

 before Nov. 1, 1901. W. S.

NEW GERANIUM 

 LITTLE PINK 



Or Double Fink *'Mars." one of the best nov- 

 elties of tlie Mars family. The first double of this 

 class ever ottered to the trade. It is a very dwarf, 

 bushy, compact and extra free blooming "variety, 

 not exceeding 4 to H inches in height. Its trusses 

 a pleasing shade of bright pink, upper petals white 

 at the base. Unlike Mars or America in color, it 

 has no trace of salmon shading. Its miniature 

 trusses stand erect, 3 to H inches above the foliage. 

 It is excellent for bedding, for the border, or as a 

 pot plant. Too much praise cannot be given this 

 grand little pink variety. Price $5.00 per doz., 

 |3i.00 per 100. Half-tone cuts will be furnished 

 free of^charee for catalogue. Correspondence so- 

 licited. Orders booked now for fall and winter de- 

 livery. Received certificate of merit at the New 

 York Convention of the Society of American 

 Florists.
