The Florists' Review 



Jandary 27, 1921 



UTICA, N. Y. 



The Market. 



Trade, outside of funeral work, which 

 keeps most of tlie retail florists busy, 

 has been rather quiet since the holidays. 

 Christinas prices still ])revail in retail 

 circles, which, no doubt, lias a tendency 

 to curtail counter trade. There are still 

 a great number of people unemployed 

 who in the last few years were making 

 high wages and were good customers 

 to the florists. However, nearly every- 

 one is looking forward to a good spring 

 business, with preparations under way 

 to meet the demand. 



Various Notes. 



The daily papers record the increase 

 of the capital stock of Brant Bros, from 

 $10,000 to $40,000. 



The Utica Floral Co. has just placed 

 a contract with the A. L. Eandall Co., 

 of Chicago, to install a large, modern 

 display refrigerator in its store. It is 

 thought this will be one of the largest 

 and most up-to-date display coolers in 

 this section. Carl Ness, of the Eandall 

 Co., was hero to close the deal. 



Dr. W. A. Rowlands, of Whitcsboro, 

 reports a good season. He will soon be- 

 gin picking sweet peas. "Doc" is leav- 

 ing for an extended stay in Florida in 

 a few days. 



Snell & Bronner, of Herkimer, N. Y., 

 have purchased the greenhouses of J. O. 

 Graham, at Little Falls, N. Y., a few 

 miles awav. B. B.

Look Ahead 

 That's How to Get Ahead 



The grower who goes at his year's work in 

 a half-hearted way is licked before he 

 starts. 



Don't be a pessimist; it never pays. 



Don't be too much of an optimist, either, for 

 this is no year to plunge. 

 Conservation is the correct policy. 



Plan now for the year and plan carefully. 

 Make sure you are going to get maximum 

 crops off your land. 



We can help you with our new Sectional, 

 Portable, irrigation lines. Made to come 



apart and go together with amazing ease. 



One line can be shifted from one row of 

 posts to another, and thus take care of a lot 

 of ground. 



This is your opportunity to get started with 

 the Skinner System at a small expense. 

 Don't take a chance on the weather when 

 you can buy Skinner System insurance for 

 so little money. 



Write today for our catalogue. 

 Better still, fill out the coupon and we will 

 tell you how to get started at the least pos- 

 sible cost.
