DETROIT. 



The Market. 



The transaction of business here was 

 much larger during the past week than 

 probably any since the holidays, the de- 

 mand seeming to be for almost every- 

 thing. Carnations and roses were very 

 scarce, which of course kept the prices 

 high. Even violets kept out of sight 

 toward the end of the week, and their 

 demand caused some anxiety. Medium 

 Beauties were very prominent; the cause, 

 in general, being the exercises at the 

 many schools, but that they were avail- 

 able was a point to the good. Red roses 

 sold lively also for that purpose. 



Much design work was in evidence dur- 

 ing the past week, which helped to swell 

 the business, and also afforded an outlet 

 for much of the bulbous stock, together 

 with azaleas. The market was kept busy 

 supplying the demand for the calla lily, 

 the past week showing a marked im- 

 provement in its use. Dutch hyacinths 

 and tulips of the different colors have 

 made their appearance, and a large num- 

 ber are being sold. Their use in the 

 flat bouquet is popular. 



The daffodil. Yellow Spur, came in for 

 much appreciation, its color and size tak- 

 ing well with the people. Orchids were 

 also used to some extent, but their supply 

 was limited. 



This week started off well and the out- 

 look is good.*^ Carnations were more 

 plentiful Monday, but perhaps its 

 being McKinley day was the reason. 

 That day seemed a failure here with the 

 displaying point in view, and carnations 

 were not as popular as the president was 

 on election day. 



Various Notes. 



Last week Boston was the center of 

 attraction. B. Schroeter sent a number 

 of his rose-pink Enchantress, only a few 

 being available on account of the un- 

 favorable weather conditions. 



With the holiday business ^till fresh 

 in our minds, we find in most every 

 day's mail, cards announcing the com- 

 ing of traveling salesmen, which means 

 get ready for more holidays. 



C. B. Knickmann^ traveling for Mc- 

 Hutchinson & Co., of New York, spent 

 several days in Detroit. 



John Van Leeuven, representing J. 

 Van Leeuven & Son, and Mr. Beerhorst, 

 of Beerhorst & Son, both of Sassenheim, 

 Holland, reached Detroit last week and 

 brought news of much business through- 

 out the States.
