The Weekly Florists^ Review^ 



Februabt 13, 1908. 



BUFFALO. 



The Market 



Severely cold weather has prevailed 

 over Buffalo and vicinity for the last 

 week, but fortunately we have also had 

 heavy snows, which helped keep the 

 houses warm. The thermometer register- 

 ed 12 degrees below zero, and in some 

 of the smaller towns east of here it 

 registered 25 degrees below. As a re- 

 sult, heavy wrapping had to be done. 

 Bulb stock is now a drug on the market 

 and moves very slowly. In fact, all stock 

 is too plentiful, and unless trade im- 

 proves in other lines besides funeral 

 work, it will be a poor month. 



A Bowling Party. 



Through the efforts of two or three of 

 the younger florists, a bowling and sleigh 

 ride party was arranged for the evening 

 of February 7. The party was arranged 

 for the benefit of the younger element 

 and was well attended. For some reason 

 the sleigh ride was omitted, but that did 

 not in any way detract from the enter- 

 tainment of the evening. About four 

 of the members of the original club were 

 in attendance, the rest of the large gath- 

 ering being new material. 



A nice supper was disposed of, after 

 which we had remarks from whoever 

 wished to speak. Mr. Adams acted as 

 chairman and gave his views as to in- 

 stalling new members and starting action 

 in the old club. We also had remarks 

 from several other members. The meet- 

 ing was a great success and started the 

 spirit which we hope will continue 

 throughout. Several names of applicants 

 were received and a special meeting was 

 called for February 14, to install them. 

 We hope to see a lot of new faces at the 

 meeting. 



After the dinner we all adjourned to 

 the bowling alleys and a fine time fol- 

 lowed. Mr. Slattery and Mr. Adams were 

 chosen captains for the two sides and, 

 after the smoke cleared away, Slattery 

 was the victor by a small number. Carl 

 Risch and Joe Beau carried off the high 

 honors. 



Various Notes. 



L. H. Neubeck has been showing some 

 fine lilacs the last two weeks. 



Two large balls the last fortnight were 

 the only social events to create any de- 

 mand for flowers. 



Mr. Zirkman and Mr. Knickman were 

 visitors last week. E. A. S. 



Eldorado, Kan. — William H. Noble 

 has recently remodeled and enlarged his 

 greenhouse.
