The Market. 



Market (onditions have diautjed for 

 the better as the cooler weather brings 

 up the cjuality of stock. With the ex- 

 ception of gladioli, all flowers have 

 cleared well during the last week. 



American Beauties are good for the 

 season. The demand is fair; if they are 

 not picked up the first day, they are the 

 next. As there are no other choice long- 

 stemmed roses to speak of, American 

 Beauties are much appreciated. 



Short and mediuni-atemmed liighly 

 colored Ophelias are in the market, and 

 they are quickly picked up by the buy- 

 ers. Other varieties that are good are 

 Maryland, Killarney, Columbia, Sun- 

 burst and Russell. Premiers arrive in a 

 bruised condition, but they, too, are 

 quickly disposed of. 



Carnations are too short-stemmed to 

 count for much, but in a week or two 

 they will be in great demand. 



Gladioli are overabundant. Only the 

 best find a buyer. Asters are plentiful, 

 as a whole, the demand being below or- 

 dinary. The usual garden flowers arc to 

 be had, such as snapdragon, cosmos, 

 zinnia, marigold, celosia and delphin- 

 ium. 



Various Notes. 



Most elaborate funeral pieces were 

 sent to the funeral of Mrs. R. A. Alger, 

 wife of the former secretary of war. 

 General Alger. The casket cover was 

 made by John Breitmeyer's Sons. It 

 was a large casket cross of solid lilies 

 of the valley on a black velvet velour 

 cover. 



A meeting of the Detroit Florists' 

 Club was held at the Hotel Statler Fri- 

 day, August 2!». The annual election of 

 officers took place. J. F. Sullivan was 

 reelected president; M. Bloy, vice-presi- 

 dent; J. Stock, treasurer, and Harry 

 Taylor, secretary. Many letters were 

 read from out-of-town visitors compli- 

 menting the Detroit Florists' Club on 

 the satisfactory way the S. A. F. con- 

 vention was taken care of. 



Adam Bezemer is back on the job, 

 having recently returned from overseas. 

 He is at E. A. Fett^'rs' Adams avenue 

 store. H- T. 



Jamestown, N. Y. — Geo. A. Heelas is 

 giving the store a thorough overhauling, 

 which includes putting in a full single 

 window and a green and white tiled 

 floor.
