DETROIT. 



The Market 



Stock is much more plentiful than last 

 week, due probably to the fact that busi- 

 ness was not quite so rushing. There 

 is still little doing in the wedding line, 

 although the month of June is nearly 

 here. The long-looked-for warm weather 

 has at last come, and with it many or- 

 ders for outdoor bedding. There seems 

 to be a scarcity of bedding stock this 

 season. 



Many good roses are coming into this 

 market and the only outlet for poor stock 

 is through the street fakers. Carnations 

 are also good and in big demand. Sweet 

 peas are arriving in large quantities and 

 selling well at from 40 cents to 75 cents 

 per hundred. Good white are hardly 

 equal to the demand. Smilax is again 

 equal to the demand. 



Qub Meeting:. 



The last meeting of the Detroit Flo- 

 rists' Club, held May 15, was fairly well 

 attended. Before getting down to busi- 

 ness the cigars were passed around by 

 Fred Miesel, the advent being of Fred 

 Miesel, Jr. 



A motion was made and stood as ap- 

 proved that the secretary send a vote of 

 thanks to the National Cash Begister Co., 

 of Dayton, O., on behalf of the club, 

 for the fine lecture delivered at Harmonie 

 hall. 



George Backham read a fine paper, en- 

 titled "Wholesale and Betail." Mr. 

 Backham 's paper elicited quite a lengthy 

 discussion. One of the questions brought 

 up was whether it paid a retailer to 

 own or at least be directly connected 

 with greenhouses. Opinions differed on 

 this, one thing being sure, that the re- 

 tail man who has glass of his own has a 

 decided advantage, especially when it 

 comes to large decorations. Those store 

 men who have no glass seemed to think 

 they were just as well off, and vice versa. 



Part of the evening was given over to 

 cement benches and their construction. 

 Most of the members present were of the 

 opinion that a good, substantial form, or 

 set of forms, in which to mold the dif- 

 ferent parts, the same to be bought out- 

 right by the florist, would be the best 

 arrangement. 



Wm. Dilger is down for a paper en- 

 titled "Two Score and Ten," for the 

 evening of the next meeting, June 5.

Various Notes. 



R. W. Peterson, representing J. A. 

 Peterson, of Cincinnati, was a visitor at 

 the club's last meeting. Mr. Peterson 

 was on hand with a fine collection of 

 pandanus, adiantum and Begonia Tri- 

 omphe de L'Est. 



H. M. Talk, who has just started in 

 business in Port Huron, was in the city 

 Sunday. 



Boston ferns are a scarce article at 

 present. Those few florists having a few 

 left are getting good prices for them. 



B. Schroeter does a great deal of 

 planting about town and at the ceme- 

 teries, and his men are putting in some 

 busy hours at present. H. S.

Muskegon, Mich. — George F. Mor- 

 risett expects to increase his range of 

 greenhouses as soon as the season's rush 

 is over. In July the north greenhouse 

 on his property at 762 Lake street will 

 be torn down and two n&w ones erected 

 at that end of the row. This will make 

 four houses in all for his use. The di- 

 mensions of the new ones will be 16x100 

 feet.
