ing some good begonia plants to the 

 market. These are among the first 

 flowering plants to be had. There is 

 a good demand for such at the present 

 time; in fact, there has been right 

 along. 



A thing that is causing the Buffalo 

 florists much worry and trouble is the 

 negligence of the express companies. 

 The florists of Buffalo have cooperated 

 with the intention of entering com- 

 plaints with the public service com- 

 mission. The carelessness of the ex- 

 press companies in the matter of ship- 

 ments has reached the point where 

 something must be done. Every florist 

 is paying a perishable express rate, and 

 yet gets no service in return. On sev- 

 eral occasions it has taken forty-eight 

 hours for a shipment from New York 

 to Buffalo. It seems that florists 

 throughout the country should take an 

 active interest in endeavoring to better 

 conditions in this direction. A. E.

The BCarket. 



The market during the last two weeks 

 has been all that could be desired. The 

 demand has centered chiefly in October 

 weddings, which have been numerous, 

 Funeral work has been plentiful and 

 the florists have been stepping lively. 

 The shipping business has been unusu- 

 ally good this fall. 



Cosmos and dahlias are blooming with 

 much vigor. Chrysanthemums are be- 

 ginning to dominate the market; Octo- 

 ber Frost, Smith's Advance, Golden 

 Glow and Glory of the Paciflc are here 

 and other fine pink blooms made their 

 appearance last week. These are used 

 to good advantage in wedding decora- 

 tions. All are of excellent quality. 



Carnations are rather short in supply, 

 but of vastly improved quality, bring- 

 ing 75 cents per dozen at retail. Roses 

 are plentiful in the medium and short 

 grades, but scarce in long-stemmed 

 stock. Russell, Shawyer, Ophelia and 

 Hoosier Beauty are the leaders in popu- 

 larity. 



Pompon mums have begun to appear 

 and chrysanthemum plants are meeting 

 with a good sale. There is a large sup- 



Ely of orchids from local greenhouses, 

 lily of the valley is on the short side;
