FAOaS OF RBTAILBRS* CARDS 



THIS department for the cards of 

 T^«iiiwg Betail Florists— those 

 florists who have the facilities for fill- 

 ing the orders sent them hy other 

 florists— has made pessible the recent 

 rapid development of this branch of 

 the bulness, a branch of the trade 

 now ^ablished for all time and so 

 helpful that its yolome will keep on 

 increasing for many years. 



Are jron sending and receiving yonr 

 diare of these orders? Ton can send 

 yonr share (and make 20 per cent profit 

 without effort) if you let your custom- 

 ers know you can perform this service 

 for them. To receive your share — ^well. 

 The Review's department for Betail- 

 ers' cards remains the one way of 

 getting prompt action on the order In 



To be represented costs only 70 

 cents per week on a yearly order. 

 This is for one-inch space. Other 

 qiaces in proportion. 



Why not send your order today — 

 now — before you forget it?

Since my advert laaaent appeared only In The Review 

 It goes to show what the retail floriets through tha country 

 lose If they do not uss this medium of advartlalag It also 

 goes to ehow that The Review Is not only there with a biff *R'

The Southwestern Market. 



There is h9,rdly anything new regard- 

 ing the local wholesale market; the 

 conditions remain about the same as 

 those of last week. We have had some 

 rain, but not nearly enough to freshen 

 up the outdoor stock. In looking over 

 the market, a large qhiantity of stock is 

 seen, but of such poor quality that it 

 is hardly salable. Gladiolus spikes are 

 of poor quality, with the tips brown. 

 America and Chicago White are in de- 

 mand and are among the best coming 

 in. For the best $6 per hundred is 

 asked. Some short-stemmed roses from 

 new stock are coming in. Most of them 

 are Killamey and Ward. 



Carnations are plentiful, but short 

 in stem and small flowered. Ever- 

 blooming tuberoses should be coming 

 in soon in large quantities, unless the 

 dry weather has killed them off. Lilies, 

 Shasta daisies and valley hold up well. 

 There are plenty of greens. Fancy 

 ferns are down to $1 per thousand. As- 

 paragus has a good demand. 



Various Notes. 



The County Growers' Association 

 held its first picnic June 30 at Studt's 

 grove, and from reports it was a great 

 success. The crowd numbered nearly 

 seventy-five persons, not including the 

 children. The day was fine and every- 

 body had a good time. It was voted to 

 make it an annual event. 



Frank Windier, chairman of the club 

 trustees, reports that a number of re- 

 tailers have offered special prizes for 



FLOWERS delivered promptly ill 

 Buffalo, Nia^rtura Falls, East Auron,! 

 Lockport, Tonawanda, Lancaster and I
