The Florists^ Review 



Mabch 6, 1913. 



BUFFAIiO. 



March opened like a lion. Jf previ- 

 ous experiences are any indication, we 

 stand some show of having a pleasant 

 Easter. The wind reached a velocity 

 of sixty-five miles an hour, with blind- 

 ing snow and cold. February on the 

 whole was not so cold, but the sun dis- 

 appeared in the latter part of the 

 month and the lilies did not move so 

 fast as we would have liked them to. 

 The lily situation will be about the 

 same as usual; perhaps they will be a 

 little scarcer. Azaleas will be short, 

 but the other stock seems to be in 

 about the usual supply. We all look 

 for a good Easter and, while business 

 leading up to it has not been wonder- 

 ful, we can not complain for the Lenten 

 season. Increased publicity has greatly 

 increased the sales of the last few 

 months and for Easter we look for an 

 increased amount of advertising, which 

 can not do otherwise than make the 

 season bigger and b'fetter than ever. 



The bowling committee invited the 

 Rochester club to a night of bowling 

 and pleasure, which was returning the 

 compliment of a few weeks ago, and 

 the event was most pleasant. The Buf- 

 falo boys turned out in fine shape 

 and the able chairman, Joe Streit, 

 was a royal host. He was busy every 

 minute satisfying the wants of some- 

 one and we feel sure that no one can 

 say that he did not have a good time. 

 The Rochester boys were somewhat 

 handicapped by the absence of some 

 of the star bowlers and as a result 

 did not make the showing usually cred- 

 ited to their scores. Charles Sandiford 

 was high for the Buffalo team and Mr. 

 Boland for the Rochester side.

The Corfu establishment of the Wm. 

 Scott Co. has been purchased by N. A. 

 Brown as an investment and leased to 

 his son-in-law, David Scott, who has 

 been the manager of the plant, which 

 consists of 45,000 feet of glass. Mr. 

 Scott will hereafter conduct the grow- 

 ing business at Corfu under his own 

 name, the greater part of the output 

 being sold, as heretofore, in the retail 

 store of the Wm. Scott Co. 



Newton Falls, O.— C. E. Tinker is 

 greatly pleased with the last few 

 months' business. The volume of trade 

 was the heaviest since he started in 

 business here three years ago. 



Barrlngton, HI. — F. W. Stott procured 

 some blank slides and writes his own 

 advertisements on them, to be thrown 

 on the screen at the local moving pic- 

 ture shows. He has found it a paying 

 advertisement.
