 retail business for himself. 



Miss Ida Schwartz, of the Patten 

 Flower Store, has returned from a 

 three weeks' fishing trip at the Soo.

 Harold Textor, of East Toledo, will

BUFFALO. 



The Market. 



The present business lull, which is 

 characteristic of the hot months, has 

 settled down too comfortably to please 

 anyone, and there seem to be no indi- 

 cations of an early return of better 

 business. A large number of regular 

 store patrons have gone to the sum- 

 mer resorts, with the result that that 

 channel of trade has been narrowed 

 considerably. To offset this loss part- 

 ly, there is a small transient trade 

 caused by the large number of tourists 

 who flock to Buffalo for the lake trips. 

 This steamer trade, however, is small 

 when compared with that of New York 

 before the outbreak of war. There 

 has been the usual amount of funeral 

 and wedding work. 



Last week gladioli arrived in large 

 quantities. Most of the varieties were 

 represented, but America was the best 

 seller because of its adaptability to 

 almost any occasion. A few asters 

 were seen, but they were small and 

 short of stem. Summer roses were 

 go0d, considering the hot weather. 

 Carnations were only fair. Some of 

 the growers have planted their carna- 

 tions outdoors, and are not cutting 

 blooms during the hot weather. There 

 was a large demand for sweet peas, 

 and the supply was adequate. Lilies 

 of the valley fell off in sales, despite 

 the good stock to be had. There was 

 not much movement in summer orchids. 

 Table ferns were too small to be of 

 any account, and native hardy ferns 

 were plentiful.

It is difficult to arrange a summer 

 window display that will win the at- 

 tention of the jaded pedestrian, and 

 then give enough minute detail to hold 

 the interest of the observer. At the 

 W. J. Palmer branch store, Genesee and 

 Main streets, they have succeeded in 

 putting up a highly attractive display. 

 The scene is a reduced reproduction of 

 a section of countryside, with a wind- 

 mill, a water mill, and the necessary 

 stream and pond. On the slope of a
