DETROIT, MICH. 



The Market, 



I^st week conditions were about the 

 flame as those of the week previous. 

 Eoses clear readily, with the exception 

 of Killarney. Blooms of White Killar- 

 ney are cut so tightly in bud that no re- 

 tailer would have them. American 

 Beauties are far below the standard in 

 quality, so long-stemmed Hoosier 

 Beauty, Eussell and Shawyer roses 

 find a ready sale. Carnations have di- 



minished in quantity and those coming 

 in are more quickly picked up. Sweet 

 peas are plentiful and are outselling vio- 

 lets. Bulbous stock cleans up nicely, ex- 

 cept hyacinths and, perhaps, Paper 

 Whites. Colored freesias from Mount 

 Clemens find a ready sale. 



Various Notes. 



The stock in Joseph Streit's green- 

 houses is in the best of condition. Mr. 

 Streit will have a fine lot of roses and 

 spiraias for Easter. 



Charles Plumb, Beard Bros, and other 



local growers report a fine lot of Easter 

 stock. 



Walter Tacpke was visited by misfor- 

 tune last week. One of his greenhouse 

 boilers burst and compelled the men to 

 shift hundreds of lilies and other stock 

 to other houses. 



Club Business and Bowling. 



The Detroit Florists' Club at its 

 meeting March 8 decided that, instead 

 of holding a spring show at a hotel, the 

 members advertise the Tuesday before 

 Easter the opening Easter shows at all
