The Weekly Florists' Review* 



Januabt 30, 1908. 



BUFFALO. 



1 he Market 



The beautiful spell of weather which 

 has crossed the country was broken in 

 Buffalo by a long snow storm, followed 

 by a drizzling rain. However, the weather 

 was elegant last week and has made 

 Easter stock jump. Heavy shading has 

 been appUed to houses containing azajeas 

 and such stock, which come so quickly. 

 As a result of this weather the stock is 

 being forced and still the market is not 

 overcrowded. 



Funeral work has been so plentiful as 

 to take all the short roses, and in some 

 cases the long stock had to be used. 

 There have been an unusual number of 

 deaths and we learned that one day last 

 week broke all records for funerals at 

 Forest Lawn cemetery. 



Violets are showing the results of the 

 warm spell which prevails over the east, 

 for they seem to have taken that faded 

 look. We hope they will last for Easter, 

 but, judging from last year, we may have 

 to sell sweet peas in their place. 



Various Notes. 



Conrad Forbach was in the city, visit- 

 ing the different florists, last week. He 

 is just as entertaining as ever and, after 

 his few stories, went on his way, leaving 

 everybody happy. 



F. S. Hale, of Hamburg, Mich., made 

 us a short visit last Sunday. Mr. Hale 

 does the retail business of Hamburg, and 

 although he only started a few years ago, 

 has built up a fine country business. 



Mr. Higgins, of R. M. Rebstock's, has 

 been on the sick list for a few days. 



Harry Bunyard paid a visit in the in- 

 terests of A. T. Boddington. He was 

 happy as ever and his bright smile always 

 commands attention. 



David J. Scott is suffering with the 

 grippe at his Corfu home. E. A. S.
