PAOIB OF RBTAILKRS' CARDS 



THIS department for the cards of 

 Leading Betail Florists — those 

 florists who have the facilities for fill- 

 ing 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 established 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 Seview's department for Eetail- 

 ers' cards remains the one way of 

 getting prompt action on the order in 

 hand. 



To b« represented costs only 70 

 cents per week on a yearly order. 

 This Is for one-inch space. Other 

 spaces In proportion. 



Why not send your order today — 

 now— before you forget it?

WASHINGTON, 



Tlie Market. 



There was a noticeable scarcity of 

 orchids in the local market last week 

 and this was made more pronounced by 

 the funeral of Mrs. Wilson, wife of 

 the President. Plenty of roses are to 

 be had, although in the main the 

 flowers are small. Some good Amer- 

 ican Beauty roses from the north are 

 to be had. Lily of the valley is good 

 and in fair demand. Easter lilies, 

 which are rather shorter in supply than 

 they have been, are exceptionally good 

 for the reason that they are being 

 shipped in the bud and there are fewer 

 bruised flowers. Good Augusta, King 

 and America gladioli are to be had, 

 but the supply has slackened up some- 

 what. Gardenias are not overplentiful. 



Club Meeting. 



A display of Gladiolus Snow King, 

 made by John Lewis Childs, of Flower- 

 field, N. Y., was awarded a certificate of 

 merit by the Florists ' Club at its August 

 meeting. The main topic of the even- 

 ing's discussion was the coming con- 

 vention at Boston and a list of names 

 obtained showed that fully seventy-five 

 people from this city will make the 

 trip. Among these will be Capt, Wil- 

 liam H. Ernest, George C. Shaffer, 

 George Daglish, Harry Lewis, Samuel 

 Simmons, George H. Cooke and Eobert 

 McLennan, who form the club's bowl- 

 ing team. 



A vote of thanks was given to Wil- 

 liam F. Gude and wife for the hospi- 

 tality accorded the members, their
