Because its northern and central sections offer an accessible gateway into France by way of the Belgian lowlands and Luxembourg, it was along this path that the Germans struck in the opening ; drives of both the First and Second World wars.

In a current report on Buffalo as a grain and flour milling center, the department of agriculture notes that for 1944 the "winter storage" fleet included 69 vessels and carried nearly 21 million bushels of grain into the winter season. These ships loaded at upper lake ports late in November and early in December and came through to anchor at Buffalo with the grain held aboard for transfer to elevators during the winter months. This temporary storage allows the elevators and mills to dispose of some of their stocks to make room for this "winter stored" wheat before navigation opens. The department of agriculture identifies Buffalo as "the leading grain receiving port on the Great Lakes, hence the leading gav°way for grain moving to seaboard. It is also the leading center for wheat flour milling in the United States, which puts it in high position in the production of mill feeds."
