Five Pages ot Retailers' Cards 



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

 ties for filling the orders sent them by other florists — has made' possible the recent rapid develop- 

 ment of this branch of the business, a branch of the trade now established for all time and so help- 

 ful a branch of the business 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. If you are the only florist in your city 

 represented here, you get the orders coming into your territory from other florists. If you are not 

 represented and "the other fellow" is — we can leave it to you what becomes of these desirable orders. 



To be represented costs only 70 cents per week on a yearly order. This is for one-inch 

 space. Other spaces in proportiort. 



Why not send your order today — now — before you forget it?

The Market. 



One day's sunshine and ten days of 

 cloudy November weather tells the con- 

 dition of stock at the present time; 

 it can't help but be a little scarce. 

 But it all may go to help to increase 

 the supply for the Christmas trade, 

 which calls for much more stock than 

 Thanksgiving. Tnanksgiving seems to 

 be a day of feasting more than a time 

 for flowers. Groceries are high, is the 

 complaint, and after the wants of the 

 inner man are supplied, if there is 50 

 or 75 cents left, that goes for a table 

 bouquet. These are the general condi- 

 tions in this locality. So the florist 

 does not, naturally, look forward to 

 one of those rushed-to-death seasons. 



The day of chrysanthemums for the 

 1910 season is drawing to a close, and 

 there is only a limited supply. The 

 dark weather affected carnations most, 

 and, as usual, the call for them came 

 in from every direction. Boses, while 

 not overabundant, have been equal to 

 the demand. Callas and giganteums 

 are coming in freely and are moving 

 satisfactorily; likewise valley and nar- 

 cissus. Greens, and especially home- 

 grown smilax, are a little short in 

 supply. 



Business, on the whole, while nothing 

 to boast of, was not so bad, though the 

 complaint is general that funeral work 

 orders dropped off considerably last 

 week.
