"A SYNDICATE." 



According to iciKuts in the daily press 

 a "syndicate" has been formed by Joseph 

 rieiscliman,of New York, for the purpose 

 of "controlling the flower -market" In the 

 large cities. According to the report it 

 is "a million dollar syndicate" and is "to 

 knock out the middlemen by raising its 

 own llowera and selling them direct to 

 the public." Also: "Incidentally the 

 price of flowers is to be reduced 50 per 

 cent in the stores to be owned or con- 

 trolled by the syndicate." 



The fact that Mr. Fleischman has led 

 the daily press to widely disseminate 

 such "news" as this indicates that he has 

 great ability as an advertiser. Tlie dear 

 reporters, in their anxiety to get hold of 

 anything to make a sensation, have given 

 the astute Mr. Fleischman an immense 

 free adv., the value of which can hardly 

 be estimate<l. The assertion that the 

 prices would be reduced 50 per cent in 

 the syndicate stores (the Fleischman 

 syndicate, of course,) makes the free 

 adv. a gem. Think up another, Mr. 

 Fleischman. It's much more eflFective 

 and a whole lot cheaper than buying 

 space at regular rates. 



KALAMAZOO, MICH. 



Here, as elsewhere, mums are having 

 a depressing effect on the marketing of 

 other stock. During the first part of 

 the month the demand and prices were 

 good, but with the advent of mums these 

 took a big drop. 



The supply of roses is not very large, 

 most of the growers being a little off 

 crop just at present, but the quality is 

 good and there are prospects of a fine cut 

 later on. Beauties have been particular- 

 ly fine and plentiful. 



Carnations are not ovcrplentiful; the 

 crops are just beginning. The quality 

 is excellent and the supply promises to 

 be large. 



Mums are plentiful and of a high 

 grade. The Van Bochovcs have had an 

 extra fine display, particularly in pot 

 plants. 



Reports from all around regarding 

 stock and prospects are very satisfac- 

 tory.
