DETROIT, MICH. 



The Market. 



The colder weather has had its effect 

 on the market, both in decreasing pro- 

 duction and in increasing prices. In 

 the latter part of last week incoming 

 stock by express was stopped by the 

 embargo. Thanksgiving stock was a bit 

 scarce, although large quantities were 

 moved. The retailers report that busi- 

 ness was the best they have ever known, 

 with chrysanthemums the only flowers 

 that sold in large quantities. 



Chrysanthemums arriving are quick- 

 ly cleared, being a bit short in supply. 

 Dolly Dimple leads in quality. Some 

 stores colored the Eatons pink, which 

 helped to sell them. Chadwick and 

 Golden Chadwick are about over. Pom- 

 pons have shortened up in supply, as 

 the Thanksgiving business used ujp all 

 those that could be cut; those to be 

 had now are of second quality. 



Boses are of good quality and at times 

 a bit scarce. Premier is the best, with 

 Bussell and Columbia close behind but 

 clearing more easily because somewhat 

 cheaper; Wards are scarce. Carnations 

 are of fine quality and sell well in all 

 colors. Sweet peas, calendulas and 

 snapdragons find a good demand and the 

 supply is short. Stevia and Paper 

 Whites are plentiful. Violets and or- 

 chids have been scarce, because of in- 

 creased demand. 



Various Notes. 



The storm hit this city Saturday, 

 N'ovember 29, and did considerable 

 damage, blowing in the windows in the 

 stores of John M. Carey and W. B. 

 Brown. 



As a result of the storm, Thomas 

 Browne, of Greenfield, Mich., had his 

 force working all day Sunday closing 

 up the broken glass; he also had difi&- 

 culty in pumping water into the boilers. 



Sidney Beard, of Beard Bros., sus- 

 tained extremely serious injuries when 

 the smokestack was blown over, crash- 

 ing through his home, hitting him and 

 breaking his back and head. He was 

 taken unconscious to Harper hospital. 

 Charles Plumb had the men at the range 

 working to save the stock from frost. 



J. Evans, of Hamilton avenue, passed 

 the cigars last week; the trade con- 

 gratulates him. H. T. 



^Benches Built of Wood ^ 

 Prove Expensive 



because they need continual repair- 

 ing and replacement every so often. 

 Not so with concrete benches— they 

 last longer than the greenhouse 



READY-SET CONCRETE BENCHES 



are inexpensive— never need repair- 

 ing- always look well. You can build 

 them yourself in a short space of 

 time. Full information for the ask- 

 ing.
