The judges of the trade's display at Minneapolis were 

 quick to recognize that the Adjustable Comer Ladder is 

 an article not wholly new, but of great value for the dec- 

 orator. The ladder makes an ideal decoration for the 

 comer of a room or window. The standard size, as shown 

 in the illustration at the right, is six feet high, with six 

 6-inch rings. The ladder is adjustable to any angle, and 

 each ring tilts so that plants can be placed in any position 

 the decorator pleases. The bottom of the ladder is equipped 

 with rubber tips to prevent marring polished floors. Fin- 

 ished in heavy green enamel. Sizes other than the above 

 made on special order and prices gladly quoted on appli- 

 cation. The price of the standard adjustable ladder is 



$2.00 each 



The Perfection Graduated Corner Ladder serves the 

 same purpose as the Adjustable Ladder and is identical 

 with it except that the rings on the Graduated Ladder 

 range from 5-inch to 9-inch in size, smallest at the top and 

 largest at the bottom. See the illustration at the left. A 

 light, strong piece which nothing can replace. Price, 



$2.50 each

Various Notes. 



Although the weather was disagree- 

 able, with rain all day, a party of 

 thirty-four made the trip to Oxford in 

 autos to pay a visit to Robert Unger. 



Some of the finest varieties of dah- 

 lias seen here have been on sale at 

 Breitmeyer's and Schroeter's. These 

 blooms were from C. E. White, of 

 Grosse lie, Mich. 



A. Miller, of Chicago, is with . us 

 again. 



The range of the Pontiac Floral Co., 

 at Pontiac, Mich., is in excellent con- 

 dition. Their mums and carnations 

 are looking fine. H. S.

The Market. 



"Variety is the spice of life" — 

 sometimes. The weather during the 

 last week has been changeable and has 

 hpen rather hard on greenhouse men. 

 Good, warm weather and then rain, 

 followed by bitterly cold winds, do 

 not improve things much. Still, a sat- 

 isfactory amount of business has been 

 I'ansacted. The wholesale house has 

 '"'en a pretty busy place and the quan- 

 I'^y of stock that has come and gone 

 ' ''s been surprising. Chrysanthemums 

 |"e plentiful and the local growers are 

 ' ringing in some remarkably good 

 'f')ck. 



There is no surplus of any of the 

 '•ore popular flowers and on Saturday 

 ' ere was a good clean-up. Violets are 

 j ''long the kinds that are apt to hang 

 ■ ' present, but there is no great sur- 

 ! us. Carnations are getting more

plentiful and are good in size and 

 quality. A great quantity of cosmos 

 has been shipped in this week, but has 

 gone at low prices. Good tuberoses 

 are being cut, with good blossoms on 

 each stem. Roses are abundant. The 

 bulk of the offerings are Killarney and 

 White Killarney. Some excellent Rich- 

 mond, Taft and Ward are also coming 

 and are selling well. Mrs. Sawyer is 

 a fine pink rose and sells quickly. 

 Beauties are not selling fast, but the 

 prices remain about normal. There 

 is a scarcity of Easter lilies, but valley 

 is fairly plentiful. Dahlias are getting 

 toward the end, but, considering the 

 damage the frost did to them a few 

 weeks ago, they have been good. The 

 green goods market is well supplied. 

 A few good blossoming plants would 

 be much appreciated, but there is noth- 

 ing promised in this line for a week 

 or two. Good business is being done 

 in the bulb trade and the season prom- 

 ises to be good.

tober 13 and was the best attended 

 meeting ever recorded here. President 

 John Dunbar was in the chair. Every- 

 one was enthusiastic and was ready 

 to help in any way possible to make 

 the affair a great success. A list of 

 private and commercial growers who 

 have signified their intention of ex- 

 hibiting was large and satisfactory. 

 A scheme of decoration unlike any ever 

 before used in a flower show in Roches-
