Eight Pages of Retailers' Cards 



This department for the cards of Leading Retail Florists — those florists 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 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 customers know you can perform this service 

 for them. To receive your share — well, The Review's department for Retailers' cards remains the 

 one way of getting prompt action on the order in hand. 



To be represented costs only 70 cents per w eek 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?

The Market. 



The market last week was somewhat 

 better, and retailers also say there was 

 quite an improvement in business over 

 the week previous. The uptown flo- 

 rists say there was quite a demand 

 for decorative work for social events, 

 which they expect will be plentiful 

 from now till Lent. 



The wholesalers last week reported 

 roses a triflo scarce; although there are 

 a lot coming in, they are cleaning up 

 early on them. The market was also 

 somewhat shy on carnations, but the 

 growers say there is a big crop coming 

 and all they need is a few more 

 bright, springlike days, similar to the 

 last few. The clear days also brought 

 in a large cut of California violets, 

 which sold well, and a large supply is 

 expected from the Kirkwood growers 

 this week. 



Lilies, both longiflorL.m and auratum, 

 are plentiful and the quality is fine. 

 There is also plenty of extra good 

 valley coming in; in fact, it was a 

 little overabundant last week. Some 

 good tulips, jonquils. Von Sions, Paper 

 Whites and Eomans Lelped to swell 

 the market with seasonable stock. 

 There was also a large demand for 

 bronze galax and fancy ferns. 



Various Notes. 



The W. C. Smith Wholesale Floral Co. 

 is mailing its complete new catalogue 

 to the trade. This firm had a big run 

 on California violets last week. 



Carl Beyer is still confined to his 

 bed with rheumatism. He says that 

 he feels all right, but can not carry 

 any weight on his feet. He hopes, 

 however, to be out again soon. 



The Eetail Florists' Association has 

 changed the meeting night to the third 

 Monday in each month. The annual 

 election of oflScers was held at the 

 meeting January 15, and resulted as 

 follows: President, C. C. Sanders; vice-
