DETROIT, MICH. 



Tlie Market. 



During the last week, due to milder 

 weather, flowera have become more plen- 

 tiful. Koses are of good quality, espe- 

 cially Ophelia and Columbia, which 

 easily find a market. Beauties move 

 slowly, not being of the best quality. 

 Bussell is better and sells well. Short- 

 stemmed Ophelia, Ward and Columbia 

 are not coming in as plentiful supply 

 as business demands. Good bulbous 

 stock, such as narcissi, hyacinths and 

 freesia, are arriving and give the shops 

 a spring-like appearance. 



Various Notee. 



The Detroit Florists' CJlub met Janu- 

 ary 8, with J. F. Sullivan in the chair. 

 Mr. Walker, a well known business man 

 of this city, gave an interesting talk 

 to the club on "Efl&eiency." Philip 

 Breitmeyer gave an account of Christ- 

 mas business in the trade, which was 

 listened to with close attention. 



E. A. Fetters had the decorations for 

 the New Year celebration of the Ford 

 Motor Car Co., which was held in the 

 ballroom of the Statler hotel. This was 

 the most elaborate affair of its kind 

 occurring in this city for some time, 

 there being 200 tables which were effect- 

 ively decorated with calendulas. M. 

 Bloy, a former florist of Detroit, was 

 seen at work on this contract and it may 

 be said that he knows how to deliver 

 the goods. H. E. T. 



ALBAinr, N. Y. 



Club Banquet. 



The annual banquet of the Albany 

 Florists' CJlub took place at Keeler's 

 restaurant January 2, with forty mem- 

 bers in attendance. Fred A. Danker 

 acted as toastmaster. The out-of-town 

 guests were James Kairns and Stephen 

 Greene, both of Philadelphia; Maurice 

 Cohen, New York; Joseph Traudt, Cana- 

 joharie; John Sambrook, Troy; James 

 G. Barrett, Troy; Samuel E. Hansen, 

 Troy; William Newport, president of the 

 club, Newtonville; Frederick Henkes, 

 Newtonville, and James Snyder, Bhine- 

 beck. 



Edward P. Tracey, proprietor of the 

 Bosery Flower Shop, spoke on the or- 

 ganization of a retailer's association. 



An orchestra was in attendance and 

 Dennis McCarthy rendered several solos, 

 one of which was composed by Mr. 

 Kairns. Messrs. McCarthy and Tracey 

 both made great hits. 



The table decorations consisted of 

 American Beauty roses and orchids and 

 beautiful foliage plants. T. F. T.
