other programs, but have "never heard 

 any florist specially recommend them. 

 In the smaller cities more depemlence 

 seems to be placed upon reading notice.s 

 in the local newspapers. We are in- 

 clined to believe that few retail florists 

 have as yet done much in the way of 

 systematic advertising of any kind. And 

 any other sort is not apt to show much 

 in "the way of results. If you are go- 

 ing to do anything in this line map out 

 a campaign and then put it into execu- 

 tion. Spasmodic advertising is rarely 

 profitable in developing permanent trade. 

 We hope to hear from retailers who 

 have had experience in the advertisiuLr 

 matter. — Ed.]

ADVERTISING BY RETAILERS. 



1 would like a little light on the 

 problem of advertising by the retailer. 

 Do you consider the daily papers a good 

 medium? If so, how would you handle 

 them — by space, reading notices or clas- 

 sified advs.? S, F, C. 



[We would be pleased to hear from 

 other retailers on this subject. From 

 various examples and clippings tliat 

 have' been sent us we would judge that 

 in the large cities the retailers rely al- 

 most wholly upon very finely printed 

 and specially designed announcements 

 issued at favorable times during the 

 year; such as the opening of tlic winter 

 season, the holidays, Easter, etc. We 

 have noted display advs. in theater and 



According to a report of a commit- 

 tee of the American Park and Outdoor 

 Art* Association, fiftv years ago no mu- 

 nicipality in the United States had pur- 

 chased an acre of land for park pur 

 poses, while now the cities of the coun- 

 try have T.T.OOO acres of land in parks 

 and expend .$11,000.(100 annually in their 

 improvement and maintenance. And this 

 amount is only about two per cent, of 

 the total expense account of our cities.
