The Florists' Review 



OCTOBEE 26, 1916. 



If we should build a greenhouse for ourselves we would put the best material we could 

 mto it, but it would not be any better than we put into the houses that we build for 

 our customers. 



Yes, it would be an easy matter to skimp hei*e and dufes^itute there, sind gloss over in 

 another place to save a little and meet the lowest bidder. We do not do business that 

 way. Why should we cheat ourselves in order to cheat a customer? 



Figure it out for yourself and then write us your needs.

Greenfield is a suburb of prosperous 

 Detroit and is making rapid strides for- 

 ward as an ideal place for the homes 

 of Detroit's best people. 



All kinds of building are in full blast 

 at Greenfield. Grandy Bros., for in- 

 stance, are erecting a large range of 

 greenhouses, which will be devoted to 

 vegetables. 



Thomas F. Browne has a splendid 

 batch of 75,000 mum plants, good 

 blooms of which he sends daily to the 

 Detroit Cut Flower Exchange. His car- 

 nations are developing nicely and a 

 house of sweet peas, 84x600 feet, could 

 not look better. 



W. Madetell finds a good market for 

 his lettuce of the Girand Kapids forc- 

 ing type. Mr. Madetell 's carnations 

 are the finest around Detroit, taking 

 everything into consideration. 



PROVIDENCE, R. I. 



The Market. . 



The stores are taking on a semblance 

 of real business activity. The windows 

 are displaying new and attractive vases, 

 ferns and other novelties. The growing 

 popularity of the mum is being demon- 

 strated by the increased demand for all 

 varieties in white, yellOw and pink. 

 Short-stemmed roses are plentiful, but 

 there is a dearth of long-stemmed stock. 

 Carnations are of good quality and in 

 quantity. 



Various Notes. 



Mr. and Mrs. Frank L. Budlong, of 

 Auburn, left a few days ago for New 

 York on their steam yacht. Eaglet, en 

 route for Fort Myers, Fla. 



James Annis, of the Hampden 

 Meadow Greenhouses, is installing a 

 large boiler which he recently purchased 

 from Joseph E. Koppelman, the latter 

 having put in a still bigger boiler for 

 his enlarged range of houses. 



The annual chrysanthemum exhibition 

 of the Bhode Island Horticultural So- 

 ciety will be held in the ballroom of 

 the Narragansett hotel November 14 

 and 15. 



8. J. Eeuter & Son, of Westerly, are
