The Market. 



Market conditions last week were 

 like those of the week previous. There 

 did not seem to be any decrease in 

 the glut, and what was scarce before 

 is scarce now. Beauties were in great 

 demand last week and few were to be 

 had. There have not been enough 

 Beauties in the BuflFalo market during 

 the last two weeks to convince anyone 

 that there were any at all. Other roses 

 are in ample supply, although no one 

 color appears to be too plentiful. There 

 was no decrease in the carnation supply. 

 The blooms of inferior quality certainly 

 were overabundant. 



Bulbous stock continues to move nice- 

 ly. Jonquils and daffodils hold their 

 own, although they seem to predomi- 

 nate in their class. Paper Whites are 

 on the wane, while poeticus narcissi are 

 becoming more of a feature. Single 

 white and yellow tulips continue along 

 the same channel. Couronne d'Or is 

 in great demand and selling at a good 

 price. Easter lilies advance one week 

 and recede the next, not, however, mak- 

 ing much difference in price. Callas 

 are not arriving so heavily. Some ex- 

 cellent peas now are finding their way 

 into the market and are enjoying a 

 great sale. Many of the inferior grades, 

 however, are overlooked. Cattleyas and 

 valley remain decidedly scarce. Mis-

cellaneous stock, such as daisies, myo- 

 sotis, mignonette and calendulas, was 

 in great demand and scarce about three 

 weeks ago, but now it is abundant and 

 little in demand. Greens move with 

 the rest of the market. Asparagus is 

 again in good shape. 



Various Notes. 



Eobert St;ott visited David Scott, at 

 Corfu, last week. 



While visiting the greenhouses of A. 

 A. Erckert, on Bird avenue, I saw a 

 splendid bench of Easter lilies. The 

 snapdragons and cyclamens are in first 

 class condition. The men are proud of 

 the results of their work. 



After totaling up everything, Theo- 

 dore Frank finds that there is a fair 

 increase in business over that of the 

 corresponding period of last year. 



On my visit to the South park con- 

 servatories, I found a decided change 

 for the better. Mr. Elbert, the man- 

 ager, has devoted a house to exhibi- 

 tions. He expects to print pamphlets 

 to inform the public when certain fea- 

 tures will be at their best. All of 

 the houses have been numbered, and 

 a classified directory is at the entrance.

Made of Crimped Galvanized Wire 

 and painted green. Closer meshed 

 to hold moss better, and less of it. 

 It's sturdy and strong. The price 

 is right. You can't beat it.
