I'he Florists^ Review 



OCTOBEB 9, 191§. 



We are the largest manufacturers of Floral Wirework in the 

 United States. We defy all competition in price and quality. 



Prices will not be lower than at present. 



Raw material is scarce and getting 



scarcer. Better place an order.

supply is hardly enough to fill advance 

 orders. 



Among the outdoor flowers there are 

 still many asters, gladioli, cosmos, tube- 

 roses and dahlias. 



In greens there is a good supply of 

 everything and the demand for aspara- 

 gus and ferns has been large all the 

 week. It will take a good frost to stimu- 

 late business. There are prospects of 

 excellent business this week, as there 

 are many weddings and other social 

 events scheduled, including the annual 

 Veiled Prophet's ball at the Coliseum. 



Retail Florists' Meeting. 



The Ketail Florists' Association held 

 a special meeting September 29 at 8 

 o'clock in Mission Inn Garden. The 

 call was for retailers and wholesalers, 

 to which only forty responded. The 

 meeting was called to discuss the ad- 

 visability of closing on Sunday. Presi- 

 dent F. C. Weber, Jr., called on all 

 present for their views on the closing 

 question. At the conclusion the ma- 

 jority ruled against closing on Sunday. 

 Those signing the petition were greatly 

 outnumbered. The meeting then ad- 

 journed. Those favoring Sunday clos- 

 ing say another attempt will be made 

 at a called meeting in the near future. 



County Growers' Association. 



The St. Louis County Growers' As- 

 sociation hold its regular monthly meet- 

 ing October 1 at the Eleven Mile House 

 at 8 o'clock. President Chas. Meier 

 presided over the meeting and the at- 

 tendance was good. The trustees re- 

 j)orte<l on the recent jjicnic given by 

 the association and stated that it was 

 a big success in every respect. 



After other imjiortant matters had 

 been disposed of, the chair called for a 

 discussion on publicity. At the conclu- 

 sion it was found that the members of 

 the association are 100 per cent in favor 

 of paying one-half of one per cent to 

 the publicity fund and that still some 

 of the wholesalers neglect their duty in 

 deducting it from tlie weekly checks. 

 Requests will be made that they comply 

 with the wishes of the consignors in 

 deducting the one-half of one per cent 

 from the weekly checks for flowers sold. 

 As $3,000 must be raised for the adver- 

 tising campaign planned by the florists' 

 publicity committee and the growers 

 are now on record as willing to do their 

 part, it is up to the retailers, whole- 

 .salers and plant growers to do their 

 share in contributing. 



The florists' publicity committee will 

 meet October 14 at 8 p. m. at headquar
