BUFFALO. 



The Market. 



The first part of last week resembled 

 somewhat the three or four days before 

 Christmas or Easter. With the extra 

 help everyone was kept busy filling or- 

 <lers for St. Valentine's. Stock of all 

 kinds was more plentiful than expected, 

 with the exception of two or three 

 items. Flowers, such as violets, sweet 

 peas, freesias, Eoman hyacinths and the 

 smaller varieties of roses, were in large 

 demand for corsage bouquets. All kinds 

 of bulbous stock and carnations sold 

 heavily. American Beauties continue 

 as scarce as the week previous, but 

 there is a noticeable increase in the 

 other varieties of roses, with Ophelia, 

 Killarney and Sunburst in the lead. 



Good carnations are scarce and move 

 without any difficulty, while the infe- 

 rior grades are more abundant and slow 

 of sale. Red carnations cleared readily 

 for Valentine's day. Bulbous stock is 

 plentiful and sells rapidly considering 

 the volume. Jonquils and daffodils are 

 largely used in decorations, because 

 thej' give a spring-like effect. Sweet 

 peas are again becoming popular, which 

 has an effect on the violet. Neither 

 the doubles nor the singles are too 

 abundant. Valley and orchids continue 

 scarce, the former selling at $6 per 

 hundred. Easter lilies are gradually in- 

 creasing in supply. Snapdragons, mig- 

 nonette, pansies, freesias and calendulas 

 are moving nicely. 



Potted plants, such as cyclamens, 

 daffodils, tulips and hyacinths, prettily 

 trimmed, were a feature for St. Valen- 

 tine's day. 



Various Notes. 



F. G. Nelson, Burlington, la., called 

 on the trade last week. 



S. D. Woodruff & Sons had an ex- 

 hibit of seeds, bulbs and plants at the 

 convention of the hardware association. 



W. Preisach, of Corfu, who built a 

 greenhouse last summer 35x200 feet, in- 

 tends to erect another house this sum- 

 mer 35x200. He reports that he is 

 picking his share of stock and that busi- 

 ness is good.
