TEQS department for the carda of 

 Leading Betail Florists — ^those flo- 

 rists who have the facilities for filling 

 the orders sent them by other florists — 

 has made possible the recent 

 rapid development of this 

 branch of the business, a 

 branch of the trade now estab- 

 Ushed for all time and so helpful that 

 its volume will keep on increasing for 

 many years. 



Are you sending and receiving your 

 share of these orders? You can send 

 your 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 Setailers' 

 cards remains the one way of getting 

 Iirompt action on the order in hand. 



To be represented costs only 70 cents 

 per week on a yearly order. This is for 

 one-Inch space. Other spaces in propor- 

 tion. 



Why not send your order today — ^now 

 — before you forget it?

Everyone seems to have been satis- 

 fied with Thanksgiving business. The 

 volume of trade agreeably surprised 

 both wholesalers and retailers, and, al- 

 though prices did not make the usual 

 advance in some lines, the general ver- 

 dict is that, all things considered, busi- 

 ness was good. Boses sold out well 

 November 25. Some select Beauties 

 made $6 per dozen, but only a limited 

 number could be sold at that price, 

 $25 to $35 per hundred being a more 

 general rate. The demand for me- 

 diums was better than that for long- 

 stemmed flowers. Hadley and Rich- 

 mond sold well at from $3 to $20, the 

 latter price for specials. Russell, 

 Ophelia, Shawyer, Killarney Queen, 

 Sunburst and Ward all went well at 

 from $3 to $12, some select flowers 

 making more. Killarney and White 

 Killarney sold at $3 to $10. Carna- 

 tions were in short supply and made 

 from $3 to $5; Gorgeous made $6. Vio- 

 lets averaged $1 per hundred. 



Chrysanthemums were in heavy sup- 

 ply and sold well at moderate prices. 

 The bulk made $5 to $12 per hundred. 

 Only a few fancies made $2 or over. 

 Pompons, particularly bronze, sold ex- 

 tremely well. There was little change 

 in valley, lilies. Paper Whites or corn- 

 flowers. Snapdragons moved slowly, 

 but yellow marguerites sold well. 

 There was no special call for gardenias 

 or cattleyas, although both cleaned up 

 well. Plant trade was only moderate,
