The Weekly Florists^ Review* 



JAXUAHY 12. 1911. 



CoK Hiih;k, North Olmsted, Ohio, Dec. 23, 1910. 



Gentlemen :— 



I have used a Standard Pumping Engine for over eight years. It is 

 always ready, and 1 don't need to get up steam or wait for the wind to blow. 

 It is a necessity to florists away from hydrant water, and sometimes much 

 cheaper than hydrant water, and away cheaper than a steam pump. I have 

 about 14,000 feet of gla'<s, and use about $10.00 worth of gasoline a year. Oas 

 is still cheaper. The repairs are nothing, and it never breaks down. 



Very truly yours,

The Market. 



There seems to be no let-up to busi- 

 ness as yet. Flowers have been none 

 too plentiful since Christmas. Prices, 

 hovrever, are a little lower now. Carna- 

 tions retail at 60 cents and 75 cents per 

 dozen; a few have been bringing $1 per 

 dozen. Roses retail at $1.50 and $2 per 

 dozen. Violets sell at $1.50 per hun- 

 <lred blooms, sweet peas at $1.50 per 

 hundred blooms, and Paper Whites at 

 50 cents per dozen. 



Some nice flowering plants are still 

 to be seen in the stores. Stevia is 

 about all gone. Candytuft helps out 

 a good deal. 



Various Notes. 



R, H. Woodhouse had a good wed- 

 ding order last week, in which he used 

 immense quantities of ferns, Killarney 

 roses, asparagus greens, palms and 

 other decorative plants. He also had 

 the order for the bridal bouquet, con- 

 sisting of 300 lily of the valley, with a 

 shower effect, using Farleyense also 

 with fine effect. He reports business 

 fine. 



E. H. Chamberlain reports business 

 as great since the holidays, there being 

 no let-up as yet. 



Wm. P. Peirce reports business as 

 first-class. Funeral work has also been 

 good with him. Last wedc he had 

 some nice lilies at his store. 



Wm. H. Davenport has still some fine 

 plants in his window. W. L.
