Selling is easier than Collecting 



You can sell a man goods he DOESN'T want 

 easier than you can collect from him money that 

 he DOES want. 



Selling: is an art — collecting a craft. 



The S. & A. Triple Demand 1% Draft 



Heads off suit — reduces the COST of your collections 

 to the minimum. 



The S. & A. service expedites collection, mini= 

 mizes trouble. Is self-prompting. Works entirely 

 on a contingent basis. ! 



We make a specialty of handling delinquents for FLORISTS and 



NURSERYMEN. Our returns are particularly 



quick and positive in these lines.

The Market. 



A brisk demand for funeral work 

 makes possible a fair report on the 

 business of last week. Outside of this, 

 there was but little doing. A few of 

 the "400" are returning from the 

 summer resorts, but as j-et no large so- 

 cial functions are being planned. The 

 same old complaint is heard from all 

 corners — the truck gardeners are bring- 

 ing in an abundance of home-grown 

 asters, gladioli, etc., which they sell 

 for a mere nothing, and as long as 

 flower lovers can get their bouquets at 

 such prices, just that long will trade 

 remain dull. 



Carnations are now putting in their 

 appearance again, as some of the grow- 

 ers are cutting from their young stock, 

 but as yet the supply is limited. There 

 is a scarcity of giganteum in the mar- 

 ket at present. The demand for these 

 has been good right along. Roses of 

 all kinds are quite plentiful and the 

 demand good.
