The Weekly Florists' Review* 



June 13, 1912. 



Eis:ht Pages 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. 



The St. Louis wholesale market was 

 crowded every day last week with car- 

 nations and roses. Though not as fancy 

 as they should be, they sold fairly well, 

 as the retailers were quite busy with 

 wedding and school work. 



Sweet peas have slackened up greatly 

 and only a few are coming in at any 

 of the markets. The glut at present is 

 on gladioli, but tliey seem to be eon- 

 fined to one wholesale house. The va- 

 rieties coming in are America, Bride, 

 Francis King and May. The price is 

 down to $5 per hundred on all except 

 America, which still brings $10. Can- 

 didum and Easter lilies, too, can be 

 counted in the glut. Long, fancy Beau- 

 ties are scarce and there is a consider- 

 able demand for them. Field daisies 

 are coming in heavily, as well as a lot 

 of other outdoor stock. Asters sell well; 

 these, too, are confined to one house, 

 with the prices from $1 to $3 per hun- 

 dred. In greens, the market is in good 

 condition. 



Various Notes. 



F. .T. Farney, representing M. Eice & 

 Co., Philadelphia, was a caller last week. 

 He reports a busy trip. 



Otto Sander was obliged to vacate 

 his store on Wednesday, June 12. At 

 last report, he had not yet found a 

 suitable location to move to. 



Miss Anna Bernhard, recently with 

 the Metropolitan Floral Co., is now 

 with the Mullanphy Flower Co., on 

 North Grand avenue. She is one of the 

 first-class lady artists. 



The florists in the western part of 

 the city had quite a busy week with 

 graduation decorations. A number of 

 good-sized wedding decorations were 

 also worked up during the week. This
