Seven Pages of RetaHers' Cards 



This 'department for the catds 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 Retailer,s' 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 fprget it? . ' '

The Market. 



Business is improving, but only at a 

 snail 's. pace. Compared with last year, 

 trade is not particularly good, but the 

 best part of the month is still to come 

 and there is a chance that it may still 

 catch up. The weather has been exceed- 

 ingly warm, and, as there have been 

 no heavy frosts, there are still a few 

 garden flowers on the market, such as 

 cosmos, Shasta daisies, antirrhinums, 

 etc. 



Carnations are rather scarce, and as 

 they improve in quality the price ad- 

 vances. The electric show is using a 

 number of carnations this week. Tea 

 roses continue to be a glut on the mar- 

 ket, and growers have been compelled, 

 they say, to ' ' dump them by the wagon 

 load." Some grand chrysanthemums 

 are coming in, but the good ones are in 

 the minority as yet. Most of the stock 

 is of an ordinary grade, which does not 

 demand a fancy price. Beauties and 

 violets are cleaned up pretty well each 

 day. There is no oversupply of either. 

 Lily of the valley is always scarce; per- 

 haps October weddings are the cause. 



Various Notes. 



The Colorado Florists' Club held its 

 first fall meeting October 2, at T. M. 

 A. hall. The advisability of organiz- 

 ing a bowling league was discussed, 

 but nothing definite was decided. Nom- 

 inations of officers for the coming year 

 were made. The election wUl take place 

 at the next meeting, which will be held 

 November 6, at the usual place. All 

 members are requested to be present. 



The visit of President Taft helped a 

 few of the florists, but the majority say 

 it was unusually quiet the day he was 

 here. The Speth Floral Co. had the dec- 

 oration at the Country Club, with the 

 exception of the breakfast table, which
