DETROIT FLOWER TRADE. 



A very active Thanksgiving trade 

 has put all of us in good humor and 

 hi^h anticipations for Christmas. The 

 past has shown that it is sate to judge 

 Christmas by Thanksgiving. Every- 

 thing brought in moved freely at good 

 prices and at the rate demand is keep- 

 ing up, prices at wholesale as well as 

 retail will have to remain the same 

 and even stiffen up some. Carnations 

 are now retailing at from 75c. to $1.50, 

 while roses bring from $1.50 to $5.00 

 per dozen with best Beauties at $12.00 

 per dozen. There is plenty of work

 sight to insure a good season and 

 enough of harmony among the trade 

 to establish steady uniform prices. 

 Looking back at the chiysanthemum 

 season which is about closed, we can 

 say that it was very satisfactory to 

 all growers and retailers. The general 

 demand is for medium sizes, selling at 

 $3.00 to $4.00 per dozen; nevertheless,
