We IVIean Business. 



An incident which occurred in this city Saturday last, the 23rd, 

 caused us to realize the extent to which the trade known as "Red Violets," 

 or the wholesaler selling direct to the consumer, has ^rown. From this 

 date on we will not sell any cut flowers to any individual or firm who is 

 not in the trade, or does not sell or ^row cut flower stock for a profit or 

 living. We mean by this that "OUR RELATIVES." "PARTICULAR FRIENDS." 

 "Particular Friends* Friends." will not be served over our counter, or 

 by ordering in any other way. We can safely say that 99 and a half 

 per cent, of our present sales are made to people in the trade, and as 

 these people ^ivc us our bread and butter, we do no propose to deprive 

 them of any of theirs. HIIMX

C. M. DICKINSON, 



DETROIT. 



At tbe last meeting of the Detroit 

 Florists' Club the subject of tbe eveiring 

 was "Tbe Relation of tbe Employer and 

 the Employe from the Employer's Stand- 

 point," and tbe question was most ably 

 handled and discussed by tbe employers. 



Mr. Payne, tbe gentleman in charge of 

 tbe weather office, gave a very interest- 

 ing talk on bow tbe predictions are made. 



Pres. Kackham was unable to be pres- 

 ent on account of rheumatism and was 

 also kept from attending the carnation 

 meeting at Baltimore for the same rea- 

 son. Rag. 



We wish ' to call your attention to 

 the value in our Florists' Manual as 

 recognized by many readers. See their 

 letters that have appeared from time 

 to time in tbe Review.
