BUFFALO. 



The Market. 



Business at present is at low ebb and 

 good stock rather scarce. Sages, Maids 

 and Brides from young stock are the 

 best in the market. The recent heavy 

 rains spoiled many asters, but we expect 

 to see plenty of good ones coming in 

 from now on. 



Carnation growers have started plant- 

 ing and, as this has been an excellent 

 growing season, field plants are in fine 

 shape. 



The S. A. F. G)nventioiu 



The S. A. F. convention is the main 

 topic of conversation these days, for, in 

 the absence of a local florists' club at 

 Niagara Falls, the members of the Buf- 

 falo Florists' Club are doing all in their 

 power to make the convention a suc- 

 cess. 



All indications point to a record-break- 

 ing attendance. The natural wonders 

 of Niagara, combined with the wonders 

 there created by man, make it the Mecca 

 of the world's travelers. When the S. 

 A. F. chooses it as its meeting place, 

 why should not the spasmodic conven- 

 tion attendant choose this as his year to 

 attend? And we hope he will. Pass- 

 ing over the international bridge and 

 watching the water, boiling and rushing 

 by beneath you, is not seeing Niagara. 

 To be impressed with its full grandeur 

 you must see it all, not once but sev- 

 eral times, and each time you will be 

 more fully impressed with the wonder 

 of it all. 



And so I say, brother florist, if there 

 is a doubt in your mind as to whether 

 you should finish planting your carna- 

 tions, complete that bouse you are build- 

 ing or attend the florists' convention, 

 choose the latter, for a few days at Ni- 

 agara Falls will fill you with inspira- 

 tion and energy, more than enough to 

 make up for the few days of manual 

 labor you fear to lose. 



The sports committee of the local club, 

 consisting of Messrs. McClure, Cloudsley 

 and Slattery, has secured the Palace 

 alleys, the finest in this part of the 

 state, in which to hold the S. A. F. 

 bowling tournament, and is trying to ar- 

 range for the use of the Buffalo base- 

 ball team's grounds for the ball game 

 between the Buffalo florists' team and 

 the All- America florists' team. This 

 promises to be a great event, and as 

 the Scott boys have agreed not to make 

 up the entire team, the All-Americas 

 may have a show. For August Poehl- 

 mann's benefit, we are hoping to have 

 uniforms for both teams.
