Current G>mment 



Fine weather has continued, but cool 

 nights remind us that autumn is here. 

 The drought still prevails and unless we 

 get copious rains before hard frost ar- 

 rives, the winter's loss among ornamental 

 trees and in orchards will be serious. 

 With the exception of department store 

 openings, there have been no special 

 events among our society folks, but never- 

 theless business for the whole summer 

 has been much better than previous years. 



Asters are about gone. GladioU are 

 fine and plentiful. Dahlias of good qual- 

 ity are more abundant, and roses and car- 

 nations increasing weekly, and improv- 

 ing in quality. Of the latter Lawson, En- 

 chantress and Boston Market are mostly 

 seen. There is no Lawson disease seen 

 here. On the contrary, we never have 

 seen this grand variety look so promis- 

 ing. Last Christmas scarlet carnations 

 brought a most profitable price, but at 

 other seasons were rather a drug, so not 

 many are planted, and those mostly Fla- 

 mingo and Palmer's Eed Lawson. 



Baseball is over, picnics are past, the 

 ponies have gone south, so we are settled 

 down to hard work for the winter. 



The Democratic state convention was 

 held in our city last week and we talked 

 and heard of little else. I have not 

 learned that democracy's presenoe here 

 created any unusual demand for flowers. 

 Something that comes in bowls is a much 

 greater favorite with Tammany Hall and 

 its braves. 



Phil Scott has departed for Denver to 

 join again his partner in business as well 

 as partner for life, and babies. He spent 

 several weeks with his brother, David, in 

 the little village of Corfu, where steady 

 application to the wheelbarrow increased 

 his weight and improved his health. 



George W. McClure is back from Scot- 

 land, charmed with the sights and wel- 

 come he received from old friends. He 

 says Switzerland is the beauty spot of 

 Europe and Kew Gardens the greatest 

 example of horticulture. 



Wm. Hewson, foreman for the Wm. 

 Scott Co., was invited to act as judge 

 at the New York state fair held in Syra- 

 cuse. He filled the position most ac- 

 ceptably and as he was the guest of David 

 Campbell, the able park superintendent 

 of Syracuse, it is needless to say he had 

 a royal time. 



We have been honored of late by a call 

 from James WTieeler, president of the 

 Gardeners' and Florists' Club of good 

 old Boston. As a horticulturist and all- 

 round fine man Mr. Wheeler stands high 

 in the community where he is best 

 known. A. K. Eogers, of Readville, 

 Mass., also gave us a call. These New 

 England men came to Buffalo to see their 

 old friend, Charlie Sandiford, and he can 

 be proud of the model place be had to 

 show them.

I. N. KRAMER & SON, Cedar Rapids, Iowa 



Miss Schultheis, head of the firm of 

 that name of Seranton, Pa., was in town 

 this week. This courageous little lady 

 has undertaken a three weeks' western 

 trip all alone and is going to get home 

 safely. She is business from her little 

 toes to the top of her shrewd head. Such 

 a woman ia a fortune to any man. She 

 can talk florists' business far more un- 

 derstandingly than most men in the pro- 

 fession. The firm received a hard blow 

 last July by a dreadful hailstorm, but is 

 recuperating with renewed vigor. Miss 

 Schultheis is a niece of the well-known 

 Anton Schultheis, of College Point, this 

 state. 



S. A. Anderson, by hard work, has the 

 Bebstock place on Elmwocd avenue in 

 good shape. It has been repaired, painted 

 and scrubbed until you would hardly rec- 

 ognize it as the place he took possession 

 of last June.
