The Weekly Florists' Review/ 



DUCBHBEB 29, 1910. 



FOR THE NEW YEAR 



The past year has been a year of prosperity for The Standard Pump ft 

 Engine Company. 



1911 is going to be a year of greater prosperity. We are extending our 

 businesa, expanding our line, and preparing to build and sell more machines 

 than ever, all of Standard quality, reliability and excellence. 



1011 will also be a year of prosperity lor the florists who use Standard 

 Pumping Engines. 



So, in order that our machines may become better known and still more widely 

 used, we are getting out a new series of advertisements to appear in this paper, 

 beginning with the first of the year. This advertising consists of solid information, 

 descriptions and expositions of the various good points about Standard 

 Pumping Engines, and their special adaptation to florists* use. 



This ought to interest you if you expect to make money this year from a 



healthy, well watered stock. „ , , ^ ,

The Market. 



Christmas weather was delightful, a 

 little cold, but no snow or ice, so that 

 delivery was easy and everyone enjoyed 

 a most excellent trade. 



American Beauties were plentiful, 

 with prices somewhat lower than last 

 .year, and there were enough tea roses 

 for everybody. Carnations were in good 

 supply and first-class red sold for $2 

 per dozen, with sufficient for all de- 

 mands. Sweet peas were plentiful and 

 had a good call and violets sold well. 



There was little use for hyacinths, 

 which was lucky, as they were scarce. 

 Narcissi sold well, but the supply was 

 short, while the reverse was true of 

 valley. 



Holly was so scarce that by Friday it 

 was difficult to find enough to go 

 around. There were more calls for 

 wreaths than ever before and lycopo- 

 dium was exceedingly scarce, with the 

 prices away up. Wild smilax was in 

 good supply. Trees sold better than 

 ever before and the supply was light, 

 although a carload of cedar trees ar- 

 rived late Friday and prices had to be 

 cut in half on them. 



Potted plants had the lead with some 

 florists, while others had a better cut 

 flower trade. Made-up plants sold well 

 everywhere. Begonias had a good call 

 at fair prices, but some of the stores 

 made the mistake of marking prices on 

 plants too high and found themselves 

 heavily overstocked. W. H. H.
