BUFFALO. 



The Market. 



The weather has been extremely hot 

 and this always demoralizes business. 

 Everyone complains of business being 

 poor and dull. Even outdoor stock is 

 scarce, because there has been so little 

 rain, and the army worms have been 

 doing their share of damage. Gladioli 

 are the most abundant of any flowers 

 and have come down in price somewhat. 

 Asters are excellent now and they are 

 plentiful. There are a few of the large 

 chrysanthemum asters, which bring 

 fancy prices. Carnations are scarce in- 

 deed and poor in quality. Eoses are un- 

 usually good, considering the warm 

 weather. Killarneys are not desirable, 

 because they open wide in a short time 

 during the hot weather. 



Various Notes. 



A number of the trade here are at the 

 convention. Wm. F. Kasting started 

 Friday, August 14; with him was George 

 Asmus, of Chicago. They madfi the trip 

 by automobile, stopping at points of 

 interest in the Berkshires, at Albany 

 and at other New York towns. The 

 following are attending the convention 

 from here: Charles Sandiford, S. A, 

 Anderson, Wm. F. Kasting, Joseph 

 Streit, Eobert Scott, David Scott, Pro- 

 fessor Cowell, Walter Amey, Fred Derch- 

 en, George McClure, William Mansfield 

 and Felix Alberts. 



L. H. Neubeck is putting in new boil- 

 ers at his greenhouses. 



James Bates, of Akron, N. Y., was a 

 visitor last week. He reports that he 

 is busy making repairs on his green- 

 houses and getting ready for fall busi- 

 ness. 



Stroh's Quality Flower Shop had a 

 most interesting collection of salpiglos- 

 sis and scabiosas last week, which were 

 raised at Stroh's farm in Attica, N. Y. 

 Ed. Stroh is summering on the farm and 

 will leave for a trip early in September. 

 Business is only fair at the store, it has 

 been reported. 



The W. E. Kirchhoff Co., of Pembroke, 

 N. Y., has a new gladiolus seedling, a 

 beautiful yellow, samples of which have 

 been sent to this city. It is a beauti- 

 ful color, has fine shaped flowers and 

 resembles an orchid. It has a drooping 

 tendency, which perhaps might be over- 

 come if it were grown stronger. It 

 would then become of value commer- 

 cially. 



W. J. Palmer had an attractive yellow- 

 window last week. It was made up of
