The Market* 



Business is booming. Carnations are 

 scarce, but as the mums are coming in 

 at a lively rate there is always a chance 

 to supply the demand. Carnation plants 

 from the field sold out clean this sea- 

 son, but on account of too much cloudy 

 weather the flowers don't open fast 

 enough and the plants grow too soft. 



VariofM Notes. 



At Sudor's greenhouses, on Cherry 

 street, the mums were looking fine and a 

 big lot of imported azaleas arrived in 

 best shape. At the downtown store Mrs. 

 Suder had a rather unpleasant experi- 

 ence. Some hog in human form gained 

 an entrance to the store during the night, 

 and not finding the odd change that is 

 always left for the morning's business, 

 vented his spite on the stock of plants 

 and cut flowers. He cut every fern and 

 palm off at the top of the pot and a 

 bunch of dahlias in the window as well. 

 A bunch of gladioli was scattered over 

 the floor. The loss amounts to about 

 $250. 



At George Bayer's those 700-foot 

 houses are a sight. The carnations are 

 in better shape than they have been for 

 the last two years. The cut is light as 

 jet, but big crops are in sight. There is 

 no need to talk about his mums; they 

 always are up-to-date. His violets, under 

 oiled-paper houses, look well. Mr. Bayer 

 uses the paper-covered, temporary houses 

 a good deal to cover lettuce, mums and 

 roses, mostly Maman Cochet, during the 

 late fall. 



O. B. Wisner, on Cherry street, has 

 repaired and partly rebuilt the roofs on 

 some of his houses, which puts the place 

 in a much better shape than it has been 

 for years. He reports business as being 

 good, and the entire place shows that he 

 is coming along all right. 



George Heinl is taking the baths at 

 Mt. Clemens for rheumatism. On his 

 ■way to the baths, he was taken sick at 

 Detroit, and had to lay over a couple of 

 days. The latest report gives it that he 

 is getting along all right. 



At John Barrows,' on Detroit avenue, 

 business is good. His ferns are fine and 

 his poinsettias elegant, but he has trou- 

 ble with his solid beds and the grub- 

 worms are grubbing away at them too 

 much. But little things like that don't 

 bother him. 



G. Bayer, T. Magee and E. A. Kuhnke 

 went to Adrian recently to see what is

doing at Nathan Smith & Son's. The 

 mums were somewhat in their off season, 

 the early having been cut, the late not 

 in yet, but for all that the show is fine. 

 It would take too much time to go into 

 details, but if you have ever seen their 

 stock you know what to expect. The 

 roses are in the best condition, as well 

 as the carnations, but the latter being 

 planted late are not as far ahead as they 

 might be. Mr. Smith is putting up six 

 houses with oiled paper for temporary 

 use, and reports business as being good.
