The Florists' Review

THE WONDERFUL "EASTER GREETING" 



Three years ago we placed Easter Greeting before the Florists. It met with wonderful sale. Last Easter it be- 

 came a factor in Easter business. It has proven one of the quickest and easiest sellers of any plant grown. No other plant 

 has the long season of bloom and therefore the long selling season. It sells when in bloom and that means from March 20 

 to October 1. Note spread of above plants in (>-inch pots. No florist can afford to be without it.

Tempcrley's had their horse and 

 wagon stolen from in front of the mar- 

 ket house February 27 and horse and

 belief of the owner that the outfit was 

 "borrowed,'' in or<ler to deliver some 

 bargains puridiased at the market hous«'. 



Harry Cluesmeyer, with the E. G. 

 Hill Co., has lieen working so hard that 

 he is on the sick list and has gone home 

 to Cincinnati to recui)erate. 



Hartje & ?]lder's yellow daisies are in 

 better crop now. 



The city market was a wonderful sight 

 March .3, there being an enormous quan- 

 tity of bulbous stock on hand. Business 

 was good and most of the stock cleared

 fine mignonette sprays. 



An attractive full page advertisement 

 by florists in a Sunday i)aper last year

 day one of the biggest flower days of

 rists have signed u]) for an advertising 

 proposition. Last year, and the year be-

 was necessary to turn down numerous 

 orders. Therefore it aiipears to be 

 necessary when boosting for business to 

 boost also for more stock for this occa- 

 sion. Would it not be advisable to hush 

 up the idea that the carnation is the 

 Mothers' day flower?
