There is a good demand for flowers for 

 home use, which, combined with funeral 

 orders, keeps the market well cleaned 

 up. 



The chrysanthemums have arrived 

 and they are of fine quality. Carna- 

 tions are improving daily and long- 

 stemmed ones are obtainable. Asters 

 are about gone. Easter lilies are re- 

 ceived in quantity and a few callas can 

 be had. 



The State Fair Exhibits. 



Fair week, September 20 to 2o, was 

 the finest week of the entire summer. 

 It rained a trifle Monday and Tuesday, 

 but not enough to dampen the ardor of 

 anyone. The remainder of the week 

 was ideal and the attendance at the 

 West Michigan state fair was larger 

 than that of any of the previous fairs. 

 The local florists did more than their 

 share to make the exhibits attractive to 

 the visitors. Horticultural hall, the 

 building in which the flower exhibit 

 was staged, was the most attractive 

 place on the grounds. 



The florists exhibiting were Henry 

 Smith, Eli Cross, the Crabb & Hunter 

 Floral Co. and Arthur F. Crabb, all of 

 Grand Rapids. The last named entered 

 only for floral designs and fancy bas- 

 kets. The awards were as follows:
