KALAMAZOO. MICH. 



Duiinp tile past month trade lias been 

 fair. Tlie etit of rose.s. wliilc not large, 

 was of fine qnality and as a rule lias 

 been eleaiied np daily. Tlie same may 

 be said of earnations. Hiilbous .stock, 

 -siicli as datTodils. tulips, liyaeinths. etc., 

 are beginning to come in and tlie qnal- 

 ity is fine. Lilies, partienlarly Hani^ii. 

 are fine and as yet have ^huwii \ery 

 little disease: longifionnii^ aKi 

 ticnlaily good. 



Propagation of roses am! .arnat inn- 

 is of course the principal ocrupation 

 just now. and from all appearances 1 he- 

 design is to considerably increase the 

 <)uantities for the next season. G. \'an 

 Bochove & Hro. are completing plans 

 for five new houses which they will he- 

 gin to construct as soon as weather will 

 IK'rmit. They have recently hnilt as an 

 adjnmt in their Moral cslahlishment a 

 model Miuslncicnii house, which is al 

 ready lieuiniiing to give some product. 

 If the product can command remunera- 

 tive prices in the market this will l>;' 

 but the heginninii of a more clah(n-ate 

 plant. 



The weatlier has been dull and cloudv 

 with short intervals of sunshine, hut 

 fortunately in these times of coal trou- 

 bles the thermometer seldom lias 

 reached zero. Sterne says something of 

 '•llir. wind being tempered to (he shorn 

 lamb." It is very applicable in the 

 present instance. |; 



THE LORD & BURNHAM CO. 



J he Ijord &. Ibirnhaui (onipanv. of 

 Irvington-on-Hudson and Xeu- York (itv. 

 are making extensive adililions to then- 

 plant at livington. These additional 

 buildings will comprise a large wood- 

 working mill equi])|ied with the most 

 modein machinery for the preparation 

 of cyjuess wood cajiping. bars, etc., for 

 their stiindaid iron construction n-reen- 

 houses, also for the inanufaetnre of 

 cypress greenhouse material for tin- 

 trade for the ■•all sash bar" construe 

 tion (the demand having outgrown tin- 

 ■■apacily of the present milll; a pow.T 

 hoirse on their new dock lor the insial 

 lation of new steam lx)ilers and eiminc; 

 also additions to their foundr\ and 

 .shops for making the widl 'known 

 "Rurnhani" healing boilers. 



The enhuLiements referred to. laki-n in 

 connection with its present works in- 

 cluding the extensive iron working shop 

 built three years since, will nearly dou- 

 ble this firm's present facilities, liiaking 

 it possible to not only lill all orders very 

 promptly but also t,> handle its lapidly 

 growing business in coinpleteil green- 

 houses .-iiid all kinds nf greenhouse ma- 

 terial. 



Kai.-\.\[.\/.oo. Mich.— The Central .Mich- 

 igan Nursery gave a bancpiet to its i-in- 

 ployes .lanuary 20 and it was a very 

 successful affair, the after-dinner ad- 

 dresses being very instructive and inter- 

 esting, ('has. A. ]\Iaxson responded on 

 behalf of the management. Fred W. liem- 

 ington for the employes, C. A. Krill for 

 the nursery salesmen. W. C. dmk. man- 

 ager of the greenhouses, for Ihuiculture.

 lug. The banquet took jdace in the Audi- 

 torium and the officers and emidoyes

 including the addresses, appeared in the 

 •Gazctte-Xews of the next morning.
