ROCHESTER. 



The Market. 



The lovers of flowers and poetry who 

 gave to Rochester the title of "The 

 Flower City" surely had a prophetic 

 vision. Could they return today they 

 would see the vision grown to a great 

 industry, covering hundreds of acres of 

 land, and the products thereof known 

 in almost every flower market of the 

 country. A recent advertisement pic- 

 tured Rochester as one of the great 

 wholesale centers, and a day spent in 

 the wholesale establishments leads ohe 

 to believe the picture does not do the 

 subject justice.

Asters are the principal flowers com- 

 ing in just at present, and the great 

 quantities received lead one to ask, 

 "Where do they come from and where 

 do they go?" Well, they come from all 

 over western and central New York, 

 and they go to Boston, New York, 

 Philadelphia, Pittsburg and other prom- 

 inent wholei^ale centers. The asters
