The Market. 



The few florists who had decorating to 

 do last week were fortunate, as there 

 was simply nothing doing in the regular 

 run of business. Complaints of dullness 

 were heard on all sides, and still stock 

 kept well cleared up, the small ship- 

 ments probably accounting for this. 



Mums, with the exception of yellow, 

 which are overplentiful, are moving well, 

 prices ranging from 75 cents to $2 per 

 »lozen. Koses find a ready sale at from 

 \^ S3 to $8 per hundred. Carnations are 

 ^scarce. The price ranges from $1.50 to 

 $2.50 per hundred, and at this figure 

 there are not enough to go half around. 



Various Notes. 



Robert Flower day has been confined 

 to the house for some time, having had 

 a severe attack of grippe. Several deco- 

 rations have kept Mr. Flowerday's help 

 busy. 



Walter Taepke is rejoicing, as they 

 will soon say "twenty-three for you" to 

 the baseburner which has done service 

 many years, but is to be replaced by 

 steam from the central neating plant. 



The Bemb Floral Co. has just com- 

 pleted the installation of a new icebox. 

 This box is really in two compartments. 

 The entrance, right out of the store, is 

 into a chamber for displaying the best 

 stock, while by going on you come into a 

 larger room for storing stock for work, 

 ferns, smilax, etc. It is the intention of 

 Albert Pochelon to cool the whole box 

 with the cold air furnished by nature, 

 although a compartment for ice in warm 

 weather is also installed. 



L. Coatsworth, of Chicago, stopped off 

 at Detroit while on his way to Canada 

 on a hunting trip. 



Experiments are being carried on in 

 the parks and boulevards for eliminating 

 the dust nuisance by sprinkling, or 

 rather soaking, the road with a mixture 

 of crude oil and some other chemical. 

 The oil is furnished at 10 cents per gal- 

 lon, including the sprinkling, which xs 

 done by wagons similar to street sprin- 

 klers, except that the stream is heavier 

 and directed straight down. The cost is 

 about $600 per mile of roadway. The 

 only objection so far is that the ground 

 assumes a dark color, which is not in 

 keeping with the surroundings. By ap- 

 plying this oil in the fall and again the 

 following spring the road will need no 

 more attention for two years. 



A new firm, to be known as Lachman 

 & Gooding, will open a retail flower store 

 about November 1, at 16 and 18 Wilcox 

 street. 



The soil in the flower beds in the 

 parks is being given a good dose of air-
