The Florists' Review 



January 25, 1917. 



BUFFALO. 



The Market. 



There have been no radical changes 

 in market conditions during the last 

 week. Everything remains the same, 

 except that a few items have either in- 

 creased or decreased in supply. 



American Beauties continue along 

 about the same, but Eussell and Francis 

 Scott Key roses are short in supply. 

 Ophelia, Mrs. Aaron Ward, Sunburst and 

 Killarney are plentiful enough from day 

 to day. At the end of the week carna- 

 tions were in larger supply, but cleared 

 without any difficulty. 



Freesias, Roman hyacinths and 

 stevias are quite abundant, and other 

 spring flowers are now being cut in large 

 quantities. The prices still remain the 

 same. A few exceptionally fine sweet 

 peas are seen occasionally. The valley 

 supply is good; the same is true of vio- 

 lets. Orchids are clinging to the scarce 

 side. Green stock is quite plentiful and 

 sells well, especially asparagus. 



Various Notes. 



A fine batch of giganteum lilies may 

 be seen at A. J. Reichert 's greenhouses. 



S. D. Greene, of H. Bayersdorfer & 

 Co., Philadelphia, was in town last week. 

 He reports a most satisfactory business! 



The next big day that florists should 

 look forward to is St. Valentine's, and 

 they should try to make it the most suc- 

 cessful ever recorded. Early advertis- 

 ing is the most essential part. 



The carnations at Barney Meyer's es- 

 tablishment, at Lancaster, are looking 

 Ti 11 and the men will be cutting vast 

 quantities within a short time. The flow- 

 ers are of good size and have good stems. 

 Mr. Meyer is oflfering some extra fine 

 valley. 



Extensive improvements have been 

 made at the greenhouses of Conrad For- 

 bach. As most of the work here is in 

 the cemetery in the spring, things at 

 present are somewhat quiet. 



Mr. and Mrs. J. B. Wiese, Mrs. Buck- 

 hardt and Miss Hose Wiese left last 

 week for California, where they expect 

 to remain for about two months. They 

 will stop oflf at all of the larger cities 

 and visit the flower markets. 



J. I'eakc, who injured himself about 

 three weeks ago with a rusty wire, the 

 wound later developing into blood pois- 

 nninjj, is slowly recovering. 



The annual automobile show opened 

 at the Broadway auditorium January 22. 

 This show always has had a tendency 

 to stimulate business indirectly. 



W. J. Palmer & Son experienced an 

 other heavy run in fiinoral work last 

 week. 



The coal problem seems to be much 

 the same at Buffalo as at other places. 

 The only way coal can be obtained is 

 by being persistent in demands for de- 

 livery. The severe weather that set in 

 January 2 will make a still stronger de- 

 mand for fuel. A. E.
