DETROIT. 



"■ TJbe Market 



Business the past week was sohie- 

 what one-sided, some being busy while 

 others looked on. There seems to be 

 plenty of funeral work and, as the mar- 

 ket is stocked with short roses and oth- 

 er flowers for work, no one is kicking. 

 Cupid seems to have taken a vacation, 

 as weddings are not as plentiful as in 

 some former years. 



Mums arc finding a ready sale at the 

 wholesalers', bringing from $4 to $15 

 per hundred. Pinks are quite scarce. 

 Eoses, at least good ones, are also at a 

 premium. A number "of Canadian-grown 

 roses find their way into this market. 



Carnations are about as scarce as coal 

 was two years ago, poor stock selling 

 as high as $3 per hundred. Violets are 

 also quite scarce. One grower is getting 

 $1 per hundred for some extras fine flow- 

 ers. The small shipments from Mt. 

 Clemens account for this shortage. 

 There is just about enough smilax and 

 other green to go around. Wild smilax 

 and leucothoe sprays have again put in 

 their appearance. . ,.! 



Various Notes. 



There is talk of a bowling match in 

 the near future, between the, growers 

 and retailers, for a bonus and some- 

 thing to eat. 



Alexander Common reports his trade 

 as having increased materially since 

 moving out Woodward avenue. 



The deepest sympathy is felt for J. 

 F. Sullivan and Thomas and George 

 Browne, losing their fathers the past 

 week. Mr. Sullivan, jwho was attend- 

 ing the Chicago show, was called east 

 suddenly. 



Strassburg hall was decorated very 

 prettily for the Halcyon Club's ball by 

 Walter Taepke.

C. Scrim died Monday, Novem- 

 ber 6, aged 53 years. He had been 

 suffering for the past two months 

 from an attack of pleurisy which, with 

 other complications, terminated fatally. 

 He was well known in all parts of Can- 

 ada and by many in the United States, 

 where he lived for some years. He was 

 the pioneer of the business in Ottawa, 

 and has built up a very fine business in 

 plants and cut flowers, one of the finest 

 in Canada. He was respected by all and 

 loved by many for his conspicuous good 

 qualities. He leaves a widow, one daugh- 

 ter and two sons.

PEQPLE who know a good thing when they see it, and will take advantage 

 of the same, must be possessed with good judgment and are generally suc- 

 cessfal. One of our successful growers has this year taken out 6ooo^ feet of 

 wooden gutters, which were only 5 years old, and replaced the same with 6000 feet of 

 the OARLAIV^ IRON GUTTER, this being his fifth annual order. ' .
