The WccHy Florists^ Review* 



September 14, 1911. 



BUTFALO. 



The Market. 

 Heavy rains and cool temperatures 

 have been followed by delightful fall 

 weather and we all look for a fine 

 Indian summer for a few weeks. Asters, 

 the main product of the market, have 

 improved lately and, with the exception 

 of the stock that came in on the rainy 

 days, the quality has been well up to 

 the standard. The market is flooded, 

 but the good stock moves fairly well. 

 Carnations are making an early appear- 

 ance, but are rather slow and short 

 stemmed; however, they are useful for 

 funeral work. Eoses are none too plen- 

 tiful, but are becoming better in quality. 



Varioiis Notes. 



"William F. Kasting was again 

 elected to a high office of the Orpheus 

 Society last week. 



In the little town of Corfu, where 

 florists have settled thickly, things are 

 progressing nicely. Everybody appears 

 to be making money and improvement 

 seems to be the rule. John Preisach 

 has renovated his place in every re- 

 spect and now has a model plant. All 

 others have replaced one or more houses 

 and conditions look bright for a suc- 

 cessful year. Buffalo depends largely 

 for its supply on the output of these 

 houses. 



Henry Weber has the reputation of 

 having the best begonias and cyclamens 

 and his stock is certainly looking tip- 

 top at the present' time. 



William Webber, of the Wm. Scott 

 Co., is still confined to his bed as a re- 

 sult of a serious sickness which started 

 last spring. 



Mr. Kirchoff, of Pembroke, N. Y., has 

 been a frequent visitor this summer, 

 taking care of his trade on sweet peas 

 and gladioli. His stock is always in 

 demand, but late delivery on the part 

 of the express company has been a 

 serious trouble; however, he has named 

 one of his prize gladioli after the gen- 

 eral manager of the company and now 

 the trouble is remedied. The variety 

 is called T. A. Eitzen. E. A. S. 



Indianapolis, Ind. — Members of the 

 Indiana State Florists' Association are 

 planning to charter a special car to go 

 to Newcastle, Ind., to attend the meet- 

 ing of the organization October 3. A. F. 

 J. Baur, the eecretary, says it is ex- 

 pected that twenty-five florists from 

 Indianapolis and vicinity will compose 

 the party.
