Eight Pag:es of Retailers' Cards 



This department for the cards 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 Retailers' 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 forget it?

The Market. 



Flowers of all kinds have been ex- 

 ceptionally plentiful during the last 

 week and prices have been correspond- 

 ingly low. Large quantities of peonies 

 have been coming into the market, but 

 these are not expected to hold over Me- 

 morial day. There is some talk of an 

 increase in price on cut flowers during 

 the present week, but the people will 

 not purchase carnations, roses or simi- 

 lar flowers when the prices look high, 

 when they can get wild flowers or gar- 

 den stock at less money. What they 

 want is quantity rather than quality 

 and flowers and foliage that will cover 

 a lot of space. Aside from this holiday, 

 the coming weeks are expected to be 

 good ones from a business standpoint, 

 due to commencement exercises, which 

 always call for cut flowers in large 

 quantities. 



Various Notes. 



Z. D. Blackistone filled an order call- 

 ing for sixty shower bouquets of lav- 

 ender sweet peas for the National Park 

 Seminary. 



William Marche & Co. furnished 

 American Beauty roses and orchids for 

 the Summer School exercises at the Ho- 

 tel Willard. 



George C. Shaffer last week was 

 called on to decorate the private car 

 which was to carry the remains of the 

 late Alexander Stewart to his last rest- 

 ing place. The decorations were elabo- 

 rate and the order was a good one. The 

 sides of the car were covered with as- 

 paragus and 1,000 Easter lilies, 850 

 white peonies, 1,000 valley and fifty 

 bunches of lavender peas, in addition 

 to which quite a number of ferns and 

 palms were used.

 ting out plants at Chesapeake Beach
