The Weekly Florists^ Review* 



Apbil 6, 1911. 



BUFFALO. 



The Market. 



The cold weather has continued for 

 several days and undoubtedly has been 

 a big drawback to spring business. On 

 the other hand, Easter stock can be 

 timed and handled much more easily 

 and without the large percentage of 

 loss in stock that takes place when 

 continued warm weather precedes a late 

 Easter. Lilies will probably be plen- 

 tiful in the shorter grades, with the 

 longer ones bringing about 15 cents. 

 Hydrangeas will also be plentiful. 

 Other seasonable stock is rounding into 

 shape nicely and if the weather is 

 pleasant, it should be a good year. 



Business has been rather even dur- 

 ing Lent and the increased stock has 

 kept the windows crowded full of beau- 

 tiful stock. A window of Hhododen- 

 dron Fink Pearl caused much com- 

 ment last week. It certainly is the 

 most beautiful of the varieties which 

 are forced for Easter and the delicate 

 pink shades are perfect. Carnations 

 have been overplentiful the last two 

 weeks and have sold cheap at times. 

 Sweet peas sell well and take the place* 

 of violets, which are not' of such good 

 quality. Bulb stock has been none too 

 plentiful for the last week and has 

 brought a good price. 



Miss Keitsch Attacked. 



Charged with shooting Elizabeth 

 Keitsch, daughter of Henry Keitsch, of 

 H. Keitsch & Sons Co., after a violent 

 struggle while attempting robbery in 

 her father's store at 810 Main street, 

 August Seckendorf, 30 years old, a dis- 

 charged driver for William F. Kasting, 

 was locked up at police headquarters 

 April 2. He is charged with assault 

 and grand larceny. 



According to the police, Miss Keitsch 

 narrowly escaped death at the hands of 

 Seckendorf. Only by a fierce struggle, 

 during which she was dragged down- 

 stairs into the basement, did she suc- 

 ceed in wrenching down her assailant's 

 revolver so that the shot, which took off 

 her right thumb at the joint, struck one 

 of her corset steels and was deflected 

 from entering her heart. Seckendorf 

 got away with $6, but his spell of liberty 

 was brief. 



Various Notes. 



Jacob Wiese has taken a trip east to 

 purchase his fancy Easter stock. This 

 is an annual trip and he usually brings 

 back some money-making stock. 



S. A. Anderson and W. F. Kasting 

 were in attendance at the National 

 Flower Show at Boston, 



Charles Edgar has been on. the sick 

 list during the last week. 



E. A. S. 



Somerville, Mass. — James Heggie, the 

 landscape gardener at 102 Flint street, 

 recently completed the work of laying 

 out and planting the estate of Stephen 

 Young, at Cambridge. Numerous es- 

 tates in the Boston suburbs are under 

 Mr. Heggie 's care.
