The Market. 



September weddings, though not elab- 

 orate, have helped to make trade more 

 active. The weather has become more 

 seasonable and every night and morn- 

 ing the air is crisp. Growers have 

 eagerly welcomed the change, as their 

 stock was progressing too rapidly dur- 

 ing the heat wave of two weeks ago. 

 The market shows business fairly active 

 and good business was enjoyed last 

 week. There is a huge quantity of 

 stock on hand. September 26 was the 

 day on which the Boman Catholics ob- 

 served "the blessing of the graves" 

 in this locality and immense quantities 

 of asters and gladioli were sold. The 

 only difficulty was that the general pub- 

 lic demanded cheap flowers, which 

 meant a lot of extra work without any 

 remuneration. Gladioli have about 

 gone, but asters are in fairly good 

 shape. Carnations are plentiful, but 

 they are short-stemmed and there is 

 .practically no sale for them. Boses 

 have been plentiful of late. Easter 

 lilies are moving slowly, but not at any 

 extravagant figure. Valley was in good 

 condition and sold well last week. A 

 good supply of orchids is being received 

 and clears nicely. A few gardenias 

 arrived and are sold freely. Gaillardias, 

 anemones, tuberoses, salpiglossis and 

 other hardy annuals are found useful 

 in the making up of cheap baskets. 



Various Notes. 



Walter Salmon spent the greater part 

 of last week at his farm, at Macedon, 

 N. Y. 



Being somewhat short-handed at the 

 wholesale house last week, George Hart 

 has been glad of the services rendered 

 him by his son, Bichard. 



Visitors to the trade last week in- 

 cluded Trautman & Smith, of Geneva, 

 N. Y.; Edward Sick, of Canandaigua, 

 N. Y.; S. W. Morgan, of Le Roy, N. Y., 

 and S. A. Anderson and Jacob Weise, 

 of Buffalo. 



George Cramer has returned from a 

 short business trip. He has been look- 

 ing over a large quantity of specimen 

 rock, with which he will build an exten- 

 sive rockery. He has been busy mak- 

 ing a number of window decorations 

 with the new rock. 



Salter Bros., East Main street, are 

 showing a good collection of Boston, 

 Whitmani and maidenhair ferns, as well 

 as large vases of gladioli and hardy 

 hydrangea blooms. 



Nearly every uptown florist and a 

 large number of out-of-town concerns 

 were busy with pieces for the funeral 

 of Eev. Rob Roy Converse. More 

 than 200 designs were received, includ- I 



100.000
