Six Pages of 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 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 proportion. 



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

The Market. 



The business last week was consid- 

 ered good, judging from the various 

 reports of the leading retailers through- 

 out the city. There was a good deal 

 of work turned out for the social set, 

 and this kind of work kept the uptown 

 florists pretty busy all of the week. 

 There was also a good run of funeral 

 work put up by all of the retailers, 

 which created a big demand for white 

 stock. 



The wholesalers were well supplied 

 the early part of last week with good 

 stock of all kinds and a fair demand, 

 but the latter part of the week stock 

 became somewhat ^aree and they re 

 ported clean-up sales. 



Long fancy Beauties sold well, also 

 all other roses. Carnations were in fair 

 supply and in great demand. At pres- 

 ent violets are plentiful, but the sale 

 for them consumed the consignments 

 nearly every day, but at cheap prices — 

 not over .$5 per thousand for the 

 choice. Romans, valley, Paper Whites 

 and lilies are plentiful, but the scarcity 

 of other stock created a demand for 

 them. Sweet peas sell well and all 

 greens have a good demand. 



Club Meeting. 



The Florists' Club held its regular 

 monthly meeting Thursday afternoon, 

 January 12, with an attendance num- 

 bering twenty five, including all the 

 officers. The bulletin committee re- 

 ported that the publication is on a pay- 

 ing basis. Chairman De Wever was 

 not present, owing to sickness, and the
