Ribbons 



are euential to flower 

 decorations for October 

 weddings* Andy the 

 ribbons ought to be distinctive. The RIGHT 

 RIBBONS will give them this touch. 

 Richness of tone (as if touched by nature) and 

 high qualities are blended combinations in Right 

 Ribbons, woven especially for Florists' use. 

 They cost no more than inferior ribboni, for they conae 

 direct to you from our milL ''All between profits cut out."

DETROIT. 



Trade was up to the usual summer 

 level but was rather later than usual 

 starting up this fall, for there was little 

 doing up to the end of September. Now, 

 however, things are traveling at a fair 

 pace. Stock is generally in good shape 

 and abundant, except Beauties for which 

 we have to go to outside markets for 

 the larger part of our supply. We have 

 as good tea roses, carnations, mums and 

 violets as are to be had anywhere. This 

 has been a particularly good season for 

 carnations and all the growers have their 

 plants in fine shape. 



The Michigan Cut Flower Exchange is 

 rapidly getting its new store into shape 

 and Mr. Dilger will soon have the best 

 equipped wholesale cut flower store to 

 be found anywhere in the country. It 

 is in a deep, cool, airy basement built 

 expressly for this use, with storage room 

 under the sidewalk for ferns, wild 

 smilax, etc. The store is several times 

 as large as the old place. 



The building so long occupied by John 

 Breitmeyer's Sons is to be torn down 

 and replaced by a handsome business 

 block. During the rebuilding operations 

 the store will be located in the new 

 building, on the street floor, just over 

 the Michigan C?ut Flower Exchange, only 

 a few doors from the present location. 

 When the new building is finished the 

 Breitmeyers wijl have one of the hand- 

 somest stores in the country, up-to-date 

 in every respect but without conservatory 

 facilities. , 



There is also talk of building a busi- 

 ness block on the site of B. Schroeter's 

 store in which they, too, would lose their 

 conservatory. If the owner consummates 

 his plan for improving the property Mr. 

 Schroeter may seek a location on Wood- 

 ward avenue. He has a big store open- 

 ing decoration on this week. 



The property in the rear of J. F. Sul- 

 livan's store is torn up by the building 

 operations of the new heating company, 

 causing him considerable inconvenience. 



George A. Kackham and his bride are 

 receiving many congratulations. One of 

 the Beard brothers was recently married 

 and there is rumor of a third member of 

 the craft soon to embark on matrimonial 



QAOd 



Hugo Schroeter returned Monday from 

 a few days' trip to Chicago. 



Jackson, Tenn. — Owing to the re- 

 cent death of Gustav Klingenspor, Mrs. 

 Klingenspor is discontinuing the busi- 

 ness.
