GRAND RAPIDS, MICH. 



The Market. 



After a week of continual rain, the 

 sun shone Saturday, August 7, and the 

 weather has been fine since. 



The beginning of the week was dull 

 and stock plentiful, but at the close 

 several large funerals cleaned up the 

 market, especially on good roses. 



Carnation planting, which has been 

 delayed by the wet weather, is going 

 ahead again, and the benches are 

 nearly filled. 



Local asters, so far, are of poor 

 quality, while carnations are prac- 

 tically off the market. Rubrum lilies 

 and gladioli are displayed in quantity. 



Various Notes. 



Henrj' Smith was busy Saturday, 

 August 7, getting out a large blanket 

 of sweet peas. 



Alfred Hannah & Sons' window last 

 week showed a fine collection of as- 

 sorted gladioli. 



Arthur F. Crabb was busy August 7 

 with a large funeral order, for the 

 funeral of a prominent citizen of 

 Greenville, Mich. 



None of the local florists are going 

 to attend the S. A. F. convention this 

 year. A. F. C.

 holds its annual exhibition in this city

 day morning, August 4. He was a
