BUFFALO. 



The Market. 



There was a noticeable slump in the 

 market last week for one or two days, 

 and it is difficult to trace the cause of 

 it. The best of all kinds of stock may 

 be had, and yet there is not the right 

 kind of enthusiasm back of it, but 

 the cooler weather is expected to make 

 a decided difference. 



Beauties are in ample supply in all 

 grades, but they have a tendency to 

 move rather slowly on account of the 

 large variety and supply of chrysan- 

 themums. Other varieties of roses — 

 Russell, Shawyer, Stanley, Milady, 

 Ophelia, Ward and Sunburst — are in ex- 

 cellent condition and sell at moderate 

 figures. 



Mums now are arriving in unlimited 

 quantities, including the pompons and 

 singles. William Turner mums are as 

 large as ever. (Jarnations are improv- 

 ing and soon will be at their best. They 

 certainly have improved wonderfully; 

 fewer short ones arrive each day. 



Easter lilies are easily sufficient for 

 present needs. Valley and orchids also 

 are plentiful, although at times it is a 

 little difficult to get an ample supply 

 of valley. Snapdragons and calendulas 

 are not prominent just now and there is 

 no special demand. The sale of violets 

 is increasing, especially of the singles. 

 Mexican ivy is available again and the 

 supply of greens is adequate. 



Buffalo Bowlers Beaten. 



The Buffalo Florists' Bowling Club 

 last week was again defeated by the 

 Colts. Following are the scores:

Various Notes. 



An artistically arranged window dis- 

 play of debutante baskets in the latest 

 designs was to be seen at S. A. Ander- 

 son 's last week. 



In flowering plants pompons and sin- 

 gles serve satisfactorily. The debutante 

 season has opened and pompons are 

 largely used on such occasions. These 

 affairs have been keeping the staff busy 

 at W. ,T. Palmer's. This store had the 

 table decorations at the, Ellicott Club 

 for the President's and Mrs. Wilson's 

 banquet. There were nineteen at the 

 President's table, which was done in 

 Killarney roses and yellow pompons. 

 At Mrs. Wilson 's table there were 

 Noveltonia pompons and Ophelias. The 

 women wore corsages of Bon Silene 

 roses and Noveltonia pompons, with 

 blue ribbon. The President wore a gar- 

 denia and Mrs. W^ilson a corsage of 

 orchids and valley. 



Buffalo's first annual flower show will 

 open at the Elmwood Music hall Novem- 

 ber 11, with an exhibition valued at 

 many thousands. The south parks' con- 

 servatory collection alone is estimated 

 to be worth $.'50,000. Chrysanthemums 

 are more popular than ever and there 

 will be a great showing of them. Wil- 

 liam Donaldson, of the Delaware Park 

 conservatory, will show his pet plant, 

 which is eleven feet in diameter and 

 has 1,045 blooms. 



Harold Taylor, of Detroit, was in 

 town last week to greet some of his 

 friends.
