ficient guarantee that it will be prop- 

 erly handled. 



March 2 a number of the members 

 will visit growers in the vicinity of 

 Philadelphia and in the evening attend 

 the Philadelphia Florists' Club meet- 

 ing. Anyone desiring to join the party 

 will please call or telephone A. M. Herr 

 or Kudolph Nagel for information. 



On Saturday, March 13, at 12:15 

 p. m., leaving Center Square, a visiting 

 trip will be made to Christiana and 

 other points along the Philadelphia pike. 

 Saturday was chosen owing to the con- 

 venience of the half hour cars on that 

 day. H. K. R.

The Market. 



The weather was fine last week and 

 business good. There has been consid- 

 erable funeral work, and flowers for 

 social functions sold well. Business St. 

 Valentine's day was good with all the 

 florists. Roses are more plentiful this 

 week and the quality is good. Carna- 

 tions are excellent. Violet sales are 

 in order now, since we have had a week 

 or more of mild, sunny weather, which 

 brings on violets in great numbers. 

 Sweet peas are more plentiful and the 

 orchid varieties bring a fair price. 

 Bulbous flowers, such as daffodils, nar- 

 cissi, freesias, hyacinths, etc., are al- 

 most a drug on the market and are sold 

 at a low figure. 



Various Notes. 



W. J. Palmer & Son had an interest- 

 ing window last week. A Japanese 

 pond with pink roses, white lilacs and 

 freesias formed the center, and porce- 

 lain birds were scattered about near 

 the pond. Baskets of spring flowers 

 were set about at different angles, and 

 live butterflies added life to the 

 window. 



Stroh's Quality Shop was filled with 

 unusual cyclamens and baby primroses 

 from their greenhouses in Attica. The 

 Narcissus poeticus, pansies, freesias and 

 calendulas were also fine. 



The Colonial Flower Shop recently 

 put in a new line of goods, such as 

 fancy flower holders, porcelain ducks, 

 birds, frogs, etc., colored in the natural 

 tints. Then there are attractive Japa- 

 nese bowls, ponds, bird dishes, dragon 

 flower holders, etc. Boston supports a 

 store which handles these things for 

 people who have big purses and aesthetic 

 tastes, and Buffalo ought to support a 

 place of this kind also, in connection 

 with floral arts.

On Tuesday evening, March 2, the 

 Buffalo Florists' Club will have a big 

 smoker and entertainment. President 

 Eiss promises a good program and wants 

 to see a packed house. 



If Joseph Streit was overwhelmingly 

 surprised on Monday, February 15, 

 when Mrs. Streit and the employees of 

 S. A. Anderson's store and greenhouses 

 put something over him in the shape of 

 a birthdsiy party, then Mrs. Streit was 

 completely baffled when on the follow-
