TEN PAGES OF RETAILERS' CARDS 



This department for the cards of Leading Retail Florists — those florists who have the facilitiea 

 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. 



Arc 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 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?

The Market. 



Conditions in 4;he wholesale market 

 were practically unchanged last week. 

 Cut flowers of all kinds were over- 

 plentifuK There was a fair demand, 

 but the prices were lower than the pre- 

 vious quotations. Carnations, lilies and 

 tulips were the slowest movers. Sweet 

 peas were to be had at ridiculously low 

 figures. Eoses were in fair demand at 

 a low price. Cut smilax and asparagus 

 were in good demand, owing to the 

 limited supply. On Saturday, March 7, 

 carnations, roses and valley were sac- 

 rificed to the street boys for whatever 

 was offered, to clean up stock <which 

 had accumulated during the week. 



The retail stores in general report 

 business fair, but not up to the mark. 

 Lexington market was filled with the 

 overflow of cut flowers. On Saturday 

 the weather prophet served a brisk, 

 sunshiny day and enormous quantities 

 of stock were disposed of, both plants 

 and cut flowers. 



Damage by Storm. 



Baltimore has been visited by a ter- 

 rific wind and snow storm, which began 

 on Sunday afternoon, March 1, and con- 

 tinued till the next day. The wind at 

 times blew at the rate of 60 miles per 

 hour and the damage to property was 

 enormous. Florists all over the city 

 suffered damage from fire, wind and 

 frost. 



At James Glass's place, on Erdman 

 avenue, a brick chimney was blown 

 over across the end of a 30-foot house, 

 breaking glass and bars and crippling 

 his heating plant. Mr. Glass and his 

 son, JameS; Jr., had a narrow escape
