Eight 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 cap 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. 



While business might be much bet- 

 ter, yet considering the heavy quantity 

 of flowers arriving, it cannot be classed 

 as unsatisfactory. Each year the first 

 half of November is a period of glut, 

 and the present season is no exception 

 to this rule. Chrysanthemums, while 

 less abundant than a week ago, still 

 overtop everything else. The most 

 prominent variety is Bonnaffon, still 

 the most popular sort in this market, 

 and which will sell when other varieties 

 cannot be moved. Of this good old 

 sort there are probably more flowers 

 now arriving than of all others com- 

 bined. Prices on these have shown lit- 

 tle change of late. Roses, while selling 

 a trifle better, are handicapped by the 

 abundance of mums. Such sorts as Bus- 

 sell, Taft, Sunburst, Cardinal and the 

 best Killarney move well, but there is 

 a big quantity of short-stemmed stock 

 which has to be cleared low. 



Carnations are of fine quality, but so 

 abundant that only a limited number 

 rise above $2 per hundred. White Won- 

 der, Gloriosa, Benora, Pink Delight and 

 Beacon are leaders. Violets have never 

 been seen in such overwhelming num- 

 bers so early in the season, and prices 

 have ruled low on them. Some good 

 sweet peas are coming in from several 

 growers, and Paper White narcissi are 

 also once more in evidence. 



Lily of the valley has been rather 

 hard to clear, and the same holds true 

 of lilies. Snapdragon is seen on several 

 stands and sells well, especially pink 

 varieties. Cattleya labiata is still 

 druggy, and there is an abundance of 

 other orchid blooms. Gardenias are 

 not as yet plentiful and sell well. There 

 is an improved demand for both adian- 

 tum and asparagus, and some good 

 smilax is coming in. 



Pot plant trade is improving. Chrys- 

 anthemums, Otaheite oranges, Lorraine 

 and Cincinnati begonias, ericas, cycla- 

 mens, and ferns in variety are the 

 leaders.
