The florists whose cards appear on the pages carrying this head, are prepared to fill orders

Flowers and Giving 



"Consider the lilies of 

 the field." How bounti- 

 fully they bloom, how 

 freely and fully they give 

 of their loveliness and 

 sweetness. 



Brother Florists, we 

 give to you our kindly 

 thoughts and best wishes. 

 Let us make this Spring- 

 time very beautiful. "He 

 that soweth bountifully, 

 shall reap also bounti- 

 fully."

 The beautifying of the approach to thia 

 modern establishment will be the spe- 

 cial pleasure of Harrv N. Hoffman him-

The Rawson Flower Shop, Elniira, 

 N. Y., has passed through one of its 

 best seasons, according to Manager 

 Frank Durand. Grower Oswald has a 

 fine line of both plants and floral con- 

 ceits for Mothers' day.

Manuel Oppcnheim, Olean, N. Y., re-- 

 turned from a tour of the neighboring 

 growers and found stock in fine shape 

 for Mothers' day. As a leading retailer, 

 he makes the store attractive at all 

 times to remind the public of the firm's 



purpose.

The Lake View Rose Gardens, James- 

 town, N. Y., in a special Mothers' day 

 advertisement calls attention to the 

 stock of roses and carnations produced 

 under the supervision of Grower Carl 



Reich.

The Charles N. Cotter Co., Jamestown, 

 N. Y., expects a banner Mothers' day 

 business, based upon the past and pres- 

 ent conditions; prices will be steady, 

 with stock not overabundant.

James & Sons, Hornell, N. Y., will 

 liave a choice line of cut flowers and 

 flowering plants for Mothers' day. They 

 are well pleased with the way business

stock from the United States Cut 

 Flower & I'lant Co., Elmira«» N. Y., a 

 thing unthought of before the era of 

 good roads. This, of course, leads to the 

 production and consumption of more 

 plants, of which the limit is not yet.

George A. Hcelas, Jamestown, N. Y., 

 reports a steady climb in volume — not 

 such large profits, but, nevertheless, 

 healthy business. Our worthy crafts- 

 man is an authority on birds. This 

 knowledge helps the business.

Eliot Worden, Jamestown, N. Y., find- 

 ing it impossible to expand, owing to 

 the rapid rise in value of the home 

 place, is looking for a nearby site for 

 the purpose of building a large range.

W. A. Wettlin, Hornell, N. Y., has a 

 fine stock of cannas and draca-nas in 

 3-inch pots, growing at the farm in vir- 

 gin soil. The finest cannas and gladioli 

 were grown here last season. A fine se- 

 lection of imported bird cages was not- 

 ed. The sale of birds has become a val- 

 uable side line.

 supply of rooted cuttings in short order. 

 Commenting upon the increase in the 

 business of rooted cuttings, Mr. Raw- 

 lings credited it jointly to advertising 

 in The Review's classified columns and 

 careful attention to keeping stock true to 

 name, a most important factor where it 

 passes through many hands often before 

 flowering. A variegated-leaved, double 

 sweet alyssum was noted. It is a great
