| TEXT | For more than thirty years the name of Mr. Buffum has been identified in this city with the manufacture of Soda Water, Syrups, Root Beer and Ginger Ale, and with the bottling business which has become one of considerable magnitude and importance. Starting in 1845 with moderate means the business of this house has steadily increased until at the present time thirty-five to forty hands are employed with a weekly pay-roll aggregating more than 300, and nine wagons are engaged in delivering goods to customers in the two cities and to the various railroad depots, to supply their country customers. An average stock of not less than 30.000 to 40.000 is carried by this firm, and their annual sales will reach 50.000. Messrs. Buffuin & Co. manufacture a superior article of Soda Water and choice fruit syrups of every flavor, Weiss Beer, Ginger Ale and Root Beer, and bottle immense quantities of Ale, Cider, Lager Beer, Porter, etc., making a specialty of the best grades of Cincinnati and Milwaukee Lager Beer for table and family use. They import direct large invoices of the standard articles of English and Scotch Ales, Brown Stout and London Porter in the wood and bottle for the trade, hotels and families. Their Weiss Beer has attained a very high reputation and is highly recommended for its superior quality and general excellence. They have one engine and all the necessary machinery requisite in their extensive establishment, which is located in the spacious double three-story warehouse 40x100 feet with cellars, at Nos. 39 to 41 Market street. This is one of the oldest, most extensive and best known establishments of the kind in the West, and the high estimation in which the house is held has been secured by the energy, enterprise and reliability of the firm and the superior quality of all goods manufactured and sold by them. |
