We are trowing all oar Kentias above 6-inch size in neat C«d«r Tuba, made especially for us, with electric wire hoops, painted Kr**n. 



These tabs cost several times the price of pots, bat we sell the plants at the same price as though grown in pots. The buyer has the 

 advantage of receiving his plants without breakage of pots and in handsome tubs in which they have become well established and in which 

 they will continue to do better than in pots.

We are easily reached— only 25 minutes from Reading Terminal, 12th and Market Streets, Philadelphia. We have fine train service— fifty

DETEOIT. 



Tbe Market. 



Last week wslb, without any doubt, 

 the dullest of the season, but as August 

 is usually dull, perhaps last week was 

 the crisis and things will pick up from 

 now on. Roses are plentiful and it is 

 no trouble at all to fill orders for any 

 color. Asters are arriving in large 

 quantities; the one complaint is with 

 reference to their color, most of them 

 being purple, while there is a shortage 

 of light pink and white. Gladioli are 

 also plentiful. 



Various Notes. 



Charles Plumb is adding another 

 house to his already large range of 

 glass. This latest house is 22x150 at 

 present, but later another 110 feet will 

 be added. Eventually Mr. Plumb in- 

 tends to rearrange his whole range and 

 this house is the beginning of a new 

 plan he has in mind. The new house 

 will be devoted to carnations. 



B. Schroeter is rebuilding three 

 houses and creating a new stack for the 

 rear range. Hugo Schroeter is spend- 

 ing a week at home, digging in the 

 garden. 



Henry Rahaley and J. E. Carey, of 

 Mount Clemens, spent August 7 fishing 

 in the North Channel, ^r. Carey is 

 not only an expert rose grower, but can 

 handle his launch like an old sea 

 captain. 



Another employee has been added to 

 the staff of the Detroit Cut Flower Sup- 

 ply House. This time it is a wee bit of 

 a girl, who arrived at the home of 

 Hubert Pearce, the proprietor, last 

 week. H. S.
