DETROIT, MICH. 



The Market. 



Last week the market was well 

 stocked with nearly everything in sea- 

 son. Mums continue to come in, but 

 they are nothing special in quality. 

 Bonnaffons are good and sell readily. 

 The pompons also are satisfactory and 

 plentiful, lioses are Stacking up a bit, 

 all growers shipping in rather heavily. 

 Ophelia and Hoosier Beauty roses of 

 best quality may be had. American 

 Beauties continue about the same in 

 quantity — enough for the demand. Val- 

 ley now makes $7 per hundred sprays. 



Carnations are in oversupply, but of 

 best quality, and bring as high as $4. 

 Lilies are greatly in oversupply and the 

 demand is light. Sweet peas, hyacinths 

 and narcissi have made their appear- 

 ance in the market; also bouvardias. 



Various Notes. 



Some good cyclamen plants are to be 

 seen at B. Schroeter's Broadway store. 



Frank Smith, in charge of John Breit- 

 meyer's Sons' greenhouses, reports that 

 he will have a good batch of azaleas 

 for the Christmas trade. 



The mum show at Belle Isle this year 

 was well worth seeing, and drew a good 

 attendance. 



E. V. Sullivan reports that business 

 at the new store is good. H. T.
