BUFFALO. 



The Market. 



The demand for flowers increased 

 wonderfully last week, owing to the 

 graduating exercises. All schools held 

 the exercises and the sudden demand 

 caused such a sljortage as has not been 

 experienced for a long . time. Koses 

 were especially short and it was impos- 

 sible to fill all orders for them. Carna- 

 tions were more plentiful, but, owing 

 to the hot, dry weather, the blooms 

 were small. Peas were also scarce. 

 This about ends the rush for this 

 spring and we can safely say that 

 spring stock was never in such demand. 

 Hardly a house in the city is without 

 some sort of a decoration and the stock 

 left is insignificant. Outdoor peas are 

 now on the market and the price 

 dropped immediately to an extremely 

 low figure. 



Various Notes. 



Buffalo had the pleasure of entertain- 

 ing the Modern Woodmen of America 

 last week and the city was crowded. 

 The convention created only a slight 

 demand for stock. The windows were 

 decorated for the occasion and some 

 original ideas were displayed. The 

 window of the Lenox Flower Shop was 

 so good looking that one woman from 

 Seattle knocked a large palm through 

 the plate glass. 



John Kramer will be married on 

 Wednesday of next week. 



S. A. Anderson has shipped a large 

 quantity of young begonia stock, which 

 left in fine shape. R. A. S.

NEWCASTLE, IND. 



P. J. Lynch, whose company previous- 

 ly owned nine acres of land here, to be 

 used as a site for a range of green- 

 houses, has now bought the adjoining 

 property of the Indiana Fiber Box Co. 

 and the Newcastle Canning Co., includ- 

 ing three acres of ground, buildings, 

 power, etc. This new purchase provides 

 Mr. Lynch with offices, a storehouse and 

 a power plant for his new range, and 

 also equips him with railroad shipping 

 facilities, through the Big Four switch 

 to the old canning factory. 



The new range will be started with 

 the erection of three houses, each 35x 

 500. E. A. Parker, superintendent of 

 the company's West Grove plant, was 

 recently in this city, in consultation 

 with Mr. Lynch in regard to the build- 

 ing operations here. 



The best Labor Saving^ 



device on the place 



Charles Moebius, West Toledo, Ohio, writes us : 



" We find the Skinner System the best labor saving device we 

 have on the place, and in fact we could not do without it. It will 

 water the ^ound evenly and will not cake the soil. We think the 

 man away out of date that uses a hose, as he will not be able to ^ow 

 such fine stuff without your watering device." 

 This is but one of hun- 



dreds of similar letters we 

 have gotten from florists all 

 over the country.
