of the lakes passing up or 

 down, for every craft sailing on the 

 lakes must get within 200 feet of the 

 Star Island House, and there is no 

 time of the day or night when there is 

 not some vessel in sight. 



The residents of the Flats are a very 

 oosmopolitan crowd, for one may see 

 the club house of the rich adjoining 

 the shanty of some mechanic. The 

 land is all made land and some of the 

 houses are not upon land at all, but 

 are built on piles. The place must be 

 seen to be appreciated and all that will 

 be necessary to enjoy this elegant trip 

 and supper will be to attend the con- 

 vention at Detroit, and become a 

 member of the S. A. F., for this you 

 must do, as the badge of the society 

 will be the ticket for the trip. 



Will the various bowling and gun 

 clubs correspond with the secretary of 

 our club so that we may make all ar- 

 rangements beforehand? Address R. 

 Flowerday, Detroit, Mich. If you have 

 not already applied for space in the 

 trade exhibit do so at once, for this 

 is to be the banner meeting of the so- 

 ciety in point of attendance. RAG.

The Right Cypress for 

 Greenhouse Material. 



Have you heard of Cypress Greenhouse Material that has not been satisfac- 

 tory ? If you have it does not follow that Cypress is not the best lumber to use. 

 There is White Cypress, Yellow Cypress and Red Cypress; there is Cypress that 

 grows on the high lands and Cypress that grows in the swamps. 



All of these different kinds are not suitable for greenhouse purposes. Do you 

 know which kind is best and do you know that kind when you see it ? If not you 

 would better buy from those that do know and will deliver exactly what they sell. 

 We introduced Cypress for greenhouse construction and pushed it to the front. 

 We know all about it. For fifteen years we have made a specialty of furnishing it, 

 and during this time we have built up a reputation that we can not afford to jeop- 

 ardize. We send out the best only.
