THIS dApartment for the cards of 

 Iieading Betall Florists — those flo- 

 rists who haye the facilities for fiUlng 

 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- 

 Slshed 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 dent profit 

 without effort) if you let your custom- 

 ers know you can perform this service 

 for them. To receive your share — ^well, 

 The Beview's department for Betailers' 

 cards remains the one way of getting 

 prompt 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?

Gentlemen :- 



How do you manage to send out such a 

 uniformly good paper every week? Perhaps this is 

 none of cur business, but it concerns ue because it 

 affects advertising returns. 



At any rate, we Intend to more than double 

 our advertising space in your columns for 1915. 



Yours very truly,

Business continues poor. In Janu- 

 ary, 1914, conditions were not of the 

 best, but prices now are much lower 

 than at that time and there is a 

 greater waste. Business at the retail 

 stores is not so good as a week ago, 

 ))ut is holding up remarkably well. 

 The trouble seems to be that too many 

 flowers are being produced for the de- 

 mand and there is a crying and imme- 

 diate need of additional outlets to 

 move the surplus. There seems to be 

 -no great unanimity as to what methods 

 of disposal would best meet existing 

 conditions, but all are agreed that 

 immediate action and not aimless talk 

 is needed. Bostonians are generous 

 flower buyers and there should be no 

 trouble in cleaning up all flowers if 

 wholesalers, growers, retailers and 

 salesmen will but get together and 

 unite on some mutually satisfactory 

 plan. 



Roses are selling cheaply,- from Beau- 

 ties downward, and as low as $10 per 

 thousand is taken for short-stemmed 

 stock. There is', however, a fair call 

 for such favorites as Hadley, Ophelia, 

 Russell, Killarney Queen, Stanley and 

 Sunburst. Killarney and White Kil- 

 larney are selling at low prices. Car- 

 nations are in a bad position; they 

 seem to have entirely lost their one- 

 time popularity and prices of $1 to $3 

 per hundred are discouraging. More 

 ^iolets are sold at 50 cents than at 7.5 

 cents per hundred, and in early Janu-
