The Market. 



It is reported by many that so far 

 this fall trade has been much slower 

 than it was during the summer months. 

 Others report that it seems slow be- 

 cause we have last year's September 

 and October sales in mind. However, 

 judging by the wholesale prices and the 

 amount of stock received plus the un- 

 sold, it is undoubtedly slow. Boses of 

 the best quality fail to find a ready 

 market at what could be considered 

 fair prices, and a supply of American 

 Beauty, Columbia, Maryland and Had- 

 ley is on hand waiting for special oc- 

 casions such as there have been re- 

 cently. 



For the last few months there have 

 been numerous bank openings, branches 

 of local banks having been started in 

 many sections of the city. Two large 

 banking institutions have also opened 

 here. These events all created an ex- 

 cellent demand for fancy grade roses 

 of such varieties as Beauty, Columbia, 

 Hadley and Ophelia. Had it not been 

 for these occasions, fancy stock would 

 have suffered tremendously. 



Various Notes. 



Papers of incorporation have been 

 filed by the Quality Flower Shop, Inc. 

 The incorporators are William S. Cay- 

 wood, Raymond Voght and Louis Sterns. 

 The company is capitalized at $10,000. 

 Where this store will locate is not yet 

 known. 



Karl Butz, of Lockport, N. T., under- 

 went an operation for appendicitis 

 October 1. He is reported doing finely. 



Local committees have been ap- 

 pointed to take care of the details of 

 the F. T. D. convention. It is expected 

 that there will be at least 500 members 

 present. A liberal fund should be raised 

 to take care of local advertising for the 

 week. W. H. Eiss has been appointed 

 chairman of the finance committee. Mr. 

 Eiss says in a personal letter to all flo- 

 rists and growers: " The increased sale 

 of flowers in Buffalo means everything 

 to the grower, retailer and wholesaler 

 and each branch should do its part in 

 this campaign, by putting its shoulder 

 to the wheel to make this week the 

 banner flower week of the year."

A Glazing Putty 

 of Real Value 



In all our experience and inyestigation 

 we had never found a preparation for 

 bulbing over the outside of a greenhouse 

 that was quite satisfactory, until we ran 

 across PERMANITB. This was about 

 four years ago . At that time we set about 

 investigating the merits of PERMANITB 

 and proceeded to watch the results of its 

 application to greenhouse roofs. 



Last year we were entirely convinced 

 of its high quality and durability, and ac- 

 cepted the western agency for the sale of 

 these goods. 



We applied PERMANITE to hundreds 

 of greenhouse roofs, over almost every 

 part of the United States. 



The results obtained were highly satis- 

 factory indeed. Glass roofs of all kinds, 

 both old and new, were made water-tight 

 and air-tight, saving thousands of plants 

 from being spoiled by water dripping on 

 them and saving many hundreds of tons of 

 coal by making the roofs proof against 

 the wind and storms of winter. 



We give PERMANITE our unqualified 

 endorsement and recommend it highly for 

 all kinds of glazing. 



We have a very large stock on hand 

 in our warehouse und can ship imme- 

 diately.
