The Florists Review 



SEPTEMBBa 15, 1921 



INDIANAPOLIS, IND. 



The Market. 



The supply continues almost as heavy 

 as it was last week, but the demand has 

 been a little better, causing less stock 

 to be wasted. Roses continue in large 

 supply and range in price from $2 up 

 l)er hundred. Large quantities can be 

 )turchased at rare bargains. Asters are 

 numerous, although fine ones are not so 

 ))lcntiful. Medium and poor ones pre- 

 dominate. Dahlias have been appear- 

 ing in large quantities. Some of these 

 are especially fine, but the price remains 

 low on account of the glut in general. 



Carnations are beginning to be a large 

 item. The blooms are fairly good, but 

 the stems remain short. These are 

 priced at $2 and $3 per hundred. Gla- 

 dioli are less abundant, although all 

 that are needed are available. Lilies are 

 plentiful at from $2 to $2.50 per dozen. 

 Chrysanthemums are seen in some of 

 the display windows, but these are the 

 first of the season. Other miscellaneous 

 flowers are zinnias, delphiniums, lark- 

 spur, cosmos, etc. 



Allan Humason, of Chicago, has been 

 calling on the trade. A number of out- 

 of-town florists were in the city and 

 called on various tradesmen during fair 

 week. E. E. T. 



EVERYTHING SELLING WELL. 



There is an infinite variety of stock 

 offered in the Classified department of 

 The Review, but somewhere there is a 

 sliarp-eyed reader looking for prac- 

 tically every item offered. It works 

 like this: 



lUease stop our ndvertlsemcnt In the Classi- 

 fied department and also the To ExohaDKe ad, 

 as we are cleaned out of stock. We ■wish to 

 thank you for the service you have given us. — 

 ■\Valther & Sons, St. Louis, Mo., September 3, 

 1021. 



Discontinue the ad on glass; all sold. — John 

 L. Wyland, Allison Park, Pa., September 4, 

 1921. 



Kindly discontinue the snapdragon advcrtlse- 

 nipnt, as we are all Hold out. — Wagner Floral 

 Co.. Sandusky, O., September 2, 1921. 



Have so far returned over $75 in checks. Who 

 says advertising doesn't pay? — R. O. IjOui- 

 mutzsch, La (Jrange, 111., Septeml)er 2, 1921. 



All sold. I got orders enough In the first mail 

 to take more plants than I had to sell. That's 

 KOing some. — M. M. Lathrop, Fairside Green- 

 houses, Cortland, N. Y., September 8, 1921. 



If you hear a man complain of the 



cost of advertising you can be pretty 



certain he spends a good bit of money 



cl.sewhere than in The Review.
