NE^ ORLEANS. 



Since my last report, in which I gave 

 my full impression about the last All 

 Saints' day, I have met many florists, 

 who are all well satisfied with the busi- 

 ness done on that day. There was not 

 exactly a shortage of flowers among the 

 growers, but private gardens suffered 

 during the rainy season and this created 

 an increased call on the trade. Flowers 

 which came from Chicago were generally 

 found good, and so far few complaints 

 have been heard. 



We had this week a committee meet- 

 ing for the last arrangements about our 

 flower show, and two days before the 

 opening a general meeting of the club 

 will be called. Everything seems to prom- 

 ise success. 



O. G. Bishop, representing S. L. Allen 

 & Co., of Philadelphia, was in town.

BUFFALO. 



The Market. 



The presidential election caused quite 

 a stir in Buffalo and made some busi- 

 ness for the store men. 



Chrysanthemums have moved well dur- 

 ing the last ten days and also have been 

 scarcer than usual. Late varieties have 

 arrived much earlier this year, and it 

 looks as if Thanksgiving muma were 

 going to bring a good price. While 

 mums have reigned supreme, carnations 

 have stood practically still. Stock piles 

 up every day and thousands have gone 

 to waste. Eoses have also moved slowly. 



Business bids fair to be good up to 

 the holidays, as several balls are to be 

 given in honor of debutantes of the sea- 

 son. There seems to be a large number 

 of parties booked, which is bound to help 

 business. 



The Club's Flower Show. 



The committee of five, appointed by 

 President Sandiford for the arrange- 

 ment of the flower show, has completed 

 arrangements, as stated in the following 

 letter, addressed to the growers: 



The Buffalo Florists' Club will hold a flower 

 show, November 18, at the Iroquois hotel par- 

 lors. Exhibition opens at 3 p. m. and banquet 

 at 8 p. m. 



The committee of arrangements has endeav- 

 ored to procure flowers of Interest to you. A 

 paper will be read by Prof. John F. Cowell on 

 his visit to the national flower -show, ' held at 

 Chicago.

The club extends an Invitation for the after- 

 noon of November 18, and also to the banquet 

 in the evening. The banquet will be a stag 

 afTair; the price of banquet tickets will be $1. 



The club will be very grateful to you should 

 you have any flowers or plants of interest that 

 you could send, not necessarily chrysanthemums, 

 but any other flowers of commercial value will 

 be acceptable. Exhibits sent are at the dis- 

 posal of the committee. 



William Legg has been appointed man- 

 ager of the show, and George McClure, 

 Jr., chairman of the press committee. 



The club will be glad to receive flow- 

 ers, mums or others, that a grower might 

 wish to ship. They would be especially 

 glad to receive any novelties, which will 

 surely be placed on exhibition to the 

 growers. The committee has arranged, 

 also, to invite the elite of the town; 

 also prominent business men. 



If you should desire any information 

 on the subject, write to J. E. Cloudsley, 

 584 Main street, Buffalo, N. Y. 



Kemember the date — November 18.

Flower shows were the main attrac- 

 tions last week. The conservatory at

 attracted many hundreds to the place.

 large blooms in both stores, as did the

 Main and Balcom streets. R. A. S.
