Randall's Cut Flower Price Bulletins 



They are mailed regularly to progressive florists who wish to keep in 

 constant touch with the market's offerings and prices. We'll gladly 

 put your name on the mailing list — gratis. A wonderful offering of 

 Beauties is this week's leader in company with fragrant Violets, choice 

 Mums and the staple Roses and Carnations. '* 



Prompt shipments properly packed — always.

Mention The Review when yoo write. 



Some of the Beauties coming into the 

 market are of excellent quality, and 

 though more plentiful in supply than 

 other roses are yet short enough to 

 clear each day. All other varieties of 

 roses continue scarce, and prices ac- 

 cordingly show no tendency to weaken. 

 Quality, on the whole, is unusually 

 good. Demand, though by no means 

 discriminating, favors the red varie- 

 ties. But under conditions like those 

 now prevailing in the Chicago market, 

 this becomes a negligible factor, for 

 all alike move. Mrs. Russell is in spe- 

 cial request. 



Chrysanthemums are much more 

 plentiful than anything else in the mar- 

 ket. And while there is some excellent 

 stock available, there is a noticeable 

 quantity that falls somewhat below the 

 usual standard of quality. Smith's Ad- 

 vance and Golden Glow have gone. 

 October Frost is singing its swan song. 

 Touset has arrived on the scene, and 

 Unaka and Pacific Supreme can be sup- 

 plied in almost any quantity. Pompons 

 now are available in considerable quan- 

 tity and are selling well. 



Carnations are improving in quality 

 every day. Stems are longer, flowers 

 are larger and color is materially truer. 

 Carnations, always popular even when 

 plentiful and of indifferent quality, do 

 not require the services of a salesman 

 to move them now. The diflBcult thing 

 in this market is to fill orders. 



Single violets are becoming more 

 plentiful, but the supply is remarkably 

 short for this time of the year. It is 

 needless to say those received are 

 picked up at once. The first doubles 

 from the Hudson river district arrived 

 this week. Easter lilies and rubrums 

 still find a ready sale, although the 

 former are much more plentiful than in 

 the last few weeks. Valley growers 

 contrive to keep the supply just short 

 of the demand. There are a few asters 

 and some short snapdragons to be seen, 

 but not in sufficient quantities to cut 

 any figure. 



Greens are enjoying a continuance of 

 last week's demand. 



THE STUFF THAT STANDS 



—that's the kind to buy, it's the kind to sell, it's the kind you get if 

 you trade in Quality Cuts. Flowers for fall, or any other season, must 

 be of a high standard of quality or Eennicott Bros. Co. won't try to 

 sell them.

BEAUTIES CARNATIONS 



ROSES 



AND all the seasonable flowers can be secured at Eennicott's. If 

 they're Eennicott's, then they are Quality Cuts; so, to be certain, order 

 from the House of Quality Plus.
