DETROIT. 



The Market. 



Business opened up nicely for the 

 latter part of January. Shipments are 

 not. l?irge at present and everything 

 cleans up well. 



Roses are none too plentiful. White 

 roses are really a scarce article. Car- 

 nations are coming in a little more plen- 

 tifully than for some time and the' stock 

 is good. Considerable bulbous stock 

 helps out. 



Romans are about the only thing that 

 could be called plentiful. 



- Qtib Meeting. 



The last regular meeting of the Detroit 

 Florists' Club was held the evening of 

 January 15. There was but a small at- 

 tendance as compared with other meet- 

 ings. 



The subject of the evening was the 

 flower show question. A red-hot argu- 

 ment, to use the president's expression, 

 followed the committee's report. The 

 pros and cons were about equally divided 

 and nothing definite was done. 



It was decided to hold a special meet- 

 ing at the club room on the evening of 

 January 21, to settle the question of 

 having a show. 



Various Notes. 



The writer called at the home of the 

 club's president, E. A. Scribner, and 

 found that worthy gentleman laid up 

 with the grippe. Friday night, January 

 17, was the first time since being in 

 business that Mr. Scribner had to trust 

 some one else to look after the green- 

 houses. Mrs. Scribner has also been in 

 the powerful grasp of the grippe for 

 over a week. 



Thomas F. Browne, of Greenfield, is 

 sending in some fine White Enchantress. 

 These are bringing good prices and are 

 in big demand. H. S. 



Wilmington, Del. — H. T. Potter will 

 exhibit a variegated carnation at the 

 Washington convention of the Carnation 

 Society. It is said to be a seedling of 

 Lawson and Queen. 



Kansas City, Kan. — ^Burton B. Crane 

 is using a night light in his lettuce house 

 with success and would like to hear from 

 those who have used a night light in 

 radish growing, as to the benefit, or 

 otherwise, apparent in the crop.

Grand New 

 Double Daisy 



A sport from that great money-making single 

 variety, QUKEN ALXXANDRA, that every- 

 body grows to a good profit. You can do better 

 with this. The fiowers are large, averaging 

 three inches in diameter, and none of the flow- 

 ers comes single at any time of the year. It 

 blooms freely, either under glass or outdoors. 

 Tonng stock, out of 2>^-in. pots, ready for de- 

 livery, $25.00 per 100.
