I'AKTY FROM THE METROPOLIS INSPECTS ROSE GROWING PLANTS.—WELL PLEASED. On December 2 a party of nineteen Indianapolis florists accepted the invita- tion of the Messrs. Heller and spent a day in New Castle. The weather was most unfavorable but the party was hospita- bly entertained, although the tour of inspection was cut short, only one or two of the visitors braving the storm to see the Reinberg & Weiland, Benthey and Dittman places, each of which would well repay a visit, particularly at this season. The range of the South Park Floral Company was never in better shape. The usual methods of growing have been somewhat departed from this season, with the result that the big autumn cut has been retarded, to come in mid-winter it is hoped, and present indications are very favorable. Of course there was much interest in the new yellow rose, Franz Deegen, which looks a winner. At noon the visitors were taken in car- riages to the hotel, for dinner, followed by a session at pool, billiards and cards. Buffalo.

C. had a meeting and outside of a little business the usual seven talked it over and won- dered why the attendance was notlarger. It could, or should, be answered. Why not make it a subject for a meeting? Trade is very fair and stock is scarce, for the weather is unfavorable. Violets seem to show the effects of cold and darkness very much. Miss R. M. Rebstock had a large wed- ding decoration last week and of course acquitted herself creditably. L. H. Neubeck has a good lot of stock that will be very salable for Christmas. J. H. Rebstock is making a fine display of Gloire de Lorraine begonias. Funeral work has kept the down town stores busy this week. Recent visitors: Messrs. Walker and McLean, Youngstown, Ohi
