DETROIT. 



TIw Market 



Good news! Detroit had a little sun, 

 but hardly enough. Saturday morning a 

 straw hat would not have felt out of 

 place, but along toward noon a cold wind 

 started blowing and by evening people 

 began to wear earlaps. These sudden 

 changes occur about every week, and, as 

 a result, the florists are rushed with fun- 

 eral work. 



Boses are unusually scarce. Carna- 

 tions are a little more plentiful. Consid- 

 erable bulbous stock is now coming in; 

 therefore the scarcity of roses and car- 

 nations is not so noticeable as a few 

 weeks ago. 



Various Notes. 



We are wondering why the little Euro- 

 pean maple, Acer campestre, is not more 

 universally used in ornamental grounds. 

 It is a little tree of regular, roundish 

 shape and very hardy. Its foliage, a 

 beautiful, solid green, somewhat re- 

 sembles a large clover leaf. Some speci- 

 mens of this tree, branched from the 

 ground up to the top, planted a few 

 years ago in Woodlawn cemetery, at- 

 tract much attention. E. Perrand, the 

 veteran tree culturist, says that the Eng- 

 lish maple makes a fine, compact hedge 

 that will stand clipping in any shape. 



S. S. Skidelsky informs the writer that 

 he is more than pleased with the sales 

 of Schroeter's Rose-pink Enchantress 

 stock. It has been found necessary to 

 withdraw the advertisements from the 

 trade papers, for the time being, in or- 

 der to catch up with the orders. 



The opening, February 2, of the fine 

 new dry goods store of Pardridge & 

 Blackwell called for a number of elab- 

 orate designs and baskets. 



There is little enthusiasm among the 

 stores here over McKinley day. This is 

 probably one reason why not more car- 

 nations are sold. Several hundreds were 

 sold over the counter. H. S. 



Appleton, Wis. — ^B. Zuelke & Co., of 

 Riverside greenhouse, have decided to 

 build a $10,000 greenhouse plant in the 

 spring. 



Brookville, Ind. — Martin Weber has 

 built a greenhouse 50x120. He will raise 

 early vegetable and florists' miscellane- 

 ous stock. 



HoLDREDQE, Neb. — ^W. E. Davidson 

 will add three greenhouses to his plant. 

 One, 10x100, for propagating plants; 

 one, 27x100, for propagating carnations 

 and another, 6x100, for violets. The 

 present building will be used principally 

 for roses.
