The Weekly Florists' Review^ 



NOVBMBEB 12, 1908. 



Florist ribbons direct from the manufacturer 



Ti'i u( yilo. 





The correct shades, high value, inside prices. 



The ribbon jobber must buy from the maker and he must make a reason- 

 able profit. 



You can buy from the maker, get better ribbons than the jobber sells and 

 you don't pay for extra profits. 



Your name on a postal card will bring samples of these right ribbons at 

 right prices in 



Plain colors and holiday designs.

 time to keep up with their orders. 



I have stated on two occasions in this 

 column that the dahlia, Jack Rose, is a 

 seedling of William F. Bassett, Ham- 

 monton, N. J. This is an error. It is a 

 seedling of L. K. Peacock, Williamstown 

 Junction, N. J., and half of the stock 

 is sold by Mr. Peacock to Mr. Bassett.

to the Chicago show. When he went to 

 board the train for the west at Broad 

 street station, the Pullman porter put 

 him in the Washington car and the con- 

 ductor was sufficiently careless to take 

 up his Pittsburg ticket and issue receipt 

 therefor. Mr. Rosnosky had an appoint- 

 ment with a customer in Pittsburg, which 

 he missed, and in addition there was the 

 loss of his temper, which latter he fears 

 he will not recover until the Pullman 

 people settle his claim for damages. 



PITTSBURG. 



The Market. 



There is nothing new to report about 

 the general trade. While all are lock- 

 ing and hoping for prosperity, they real- 

 ize it is too soon to expect much change. 

 There are mountains of flowers coming 

 into the wholesale houses and fine stock 

 is selling cheaper than ever before, but 

 weak-stemmed mums and carnations that 

 are not the finest are not in demand at
