DETROIT. 



Various Notes. 



The lovers of ;ui old fashioned winter 

 are surely satisfied with this one, for it 

 began here about April ], last and has 

 been severe enough to suit most anyone, 

 especially the coal man and the ice man, 

 but the latter is deliberating on putting 

 the price up on account of the increased 

 expense of harvesting and delivering the 

 crop by reason of the extra thickness of 

 the ice, showing what combined effort 

 can accomplish. 



But in the way of combined effort, I 

 think the coming carnation meeting will 

 be a proof of what the Detroit Club 

 can do when it tries. It is the desire of 

 the club that all delegations notify our 

 secretary as to their time of arrival, 

 so that they may be met by our 

 reception committee and escorted to the 

 hotel in safety. It is also urged upo!i 

 all members of the society to show their 

 badge and register at once on the first 

 day with our chairman of arrangements, 

 Air. Beard, and secure their banquet and 

 other tickets so that all members can 

 be properly eared for. Please do so as 

 early as possible and help the manage- 

 ment out, so that they can have some 

 time to enjoy the company of the vis- 

 itors. Everyone will be required to be 

 a member of the society to secure tickets 

 to the banquet, with the exception of 

 members of the local club. 



Arrangements have been made with 

 all the express companies to deliver at 

 once all packages directed to J. F. Sul- 

 livan, Harmonia Hall, day or night, to 

 the end that we shall have no stock 

 frozen in Detroit. 



About three weeks ago Mr. Eackham. 

 wishing to change the diet of his car- 

 nations from cow and sheep manure gave 

 three houses a very light dose of horse 

 manure and the result was the complete 

 ruination of every bud and flower by 

 the ammonia. He says no more horse 

 manure for him in the greenhouse. 



Bag. 



Lebanon, Ind. — Paul O. Tauer has 

 bought a tract of three acres just out- 

 side of town and intends to erect a 

 range of several houses, 20x150. for 

 roses and carnations for the wholesale 

 market. He will heat bv steam.
