MCHIGAN CUT FLOWER EXCHANGE, 264-266 Randolph St., Detroit, Ich. 



with many more to follow. Cut flower 

 business at the Boylston street store is 

 good. A large wedding decoration at 

 Portland, Me., September 16 used much 

 choice material. 



Boston's threatened police strike 

 started September 9, and on that night 

 thugs and criminals had considerable 

 latitude. No damage was done, how- 

 ever, to any wholesale or retail flower 

 stores, and with martial law in force and 

 business again back to normal condi- 

 tions, little more trouble is looked for, 



James Wheeler and his wife have just 

 returned from an inspection trip to 

 points of horticultural interest in Con- 

 necticut, New York and New Jersey. 



Robert S. Edgar, formerly of Wa- 

 verley, is now associated in business 

 with Joseph Fuller, of Leominster. 



Andrew Christensen, of Stoneham, has 

 several times made winter trips to 

 Florida. He has just returned from a 

 trip there, but is not enthusiastic over it 

 as a summer resort. 



Prompt work by two volunteer police- 

 men on the evening of September 9 pre- 

 vented the windows of Penn's store be- 

 ing broken. A crowd of boisterous 

 young men were heard planning a raid 

 to secure chrysanthemums, but were pre- 

 vented by the officers. 



Pierce Bros., of Waverley, are cutting 

 nice crops of Premier, Columbia, Francis 

 Scott Key and Ophelia roses. They think 

 highly of Premier. 



At Galvin 's Park street store especial- 

 ly fine vases of Smith 's Advance and 

 Golden Glow chrysanthemums are on 

 exhibit. They also had a fine display of 

 crotons and ferns. 



The new cut flower department of the 

 Boston Floral Supply Co. is in full opera- 

 tion and an excellent line of seasonable 

 flowers is carried. Business in the 

 sundries department is becoming quite 

 brisk. 



The Houghton-Gorney Co. store is 

 showing among other flowers, blue 

 gentians, Delphinium belladonna and 

 ncrines. Crotons fill one entire window, 



William R. Nicholson, of Framingham, 

 is cutting some excellent Early Frost 

 and Golden Glow chrysanthemums. His 

 carnations are in fine shape and already 

 are giving a crop of good flowers. 



Four additional exhibitions were ar- 

 ranged for by the committee on prizes 

 and exhibitions of the Massachusetts 

 Horticultural Society September 13, 

 One will be held in May and others in
