*^ DETROIT; '; 



The Market 



Commencement exercises have been 

 keeping florists working overtime lately, 

 but during the daytime things are quiet. 

 These exercises are taking place some- 

 what earlier than usual this year. The 

 demand for peonies is good, but not 

 enough to relieve the market. 



Flowers of all kinds are plentiful. In 

 roses the Richmond, La Detroit, Kai- 

 serin, Killarney, Bride and Maid are the 

 best. Beauties are quite plentiful, but 

 the quality is nothing extra. 



Some fine sweet peas in the delfcate 

 shades are arriving from Mount Clemens 

 daily. Many thousand were disposed of 

 for graduating exercises. 



Carnations are of good quality and 

 meeting with a steady demand, despite 

 the street merchants' low price. 



Variotti Notes. 



What was at first intended only for a 

 ball game between some of the boys, 

 turned out to be a grand outing on 

 Belle Isle on Friday, June 6. Many 

 wives and sweethearts were in the crowd, 

 which after the game embarked to Insel 

 Buhe, the home of Mrs. William Dilger, 

 on Belle Isle. Here the merrymakers 

 were treated to a grand feast, speeches, 

 songs, poetry by Browne, and reciting. 

 Of course, the ball game was the fea- 

 ture of the day. The Michigan Cut 

 Flower Exchange sluggers carried off the 

 honors with a score of 20 to 15. W. B. 

 Brown, of the opposing team, was feel- 

 ing pretty good and it is thought that the 

 laughter he provoked got the boys ex- 

 cited. Captains Pierce and Rahaley are 

 on speaking terms, but Mr. Pierce will 

 positively not talk baseball since the 

 game. These outings are what get the 

 members of the club acquainted and, 

 should there chance to be any hard feel- 

 ing between any of the boys, a few of 

 these outings will expel it. 



X hilip Breitmeyer and J. F. Sullivan 

 were among the jolly crowd of Detroit 

 business men who participated in the 

 trip to the Soo on the new D, & C. 

 steamer, City of Cleveland. 



J. F. Sullivan is cutting hundreds of 

 fine peonies. Many are disposed of, 

 but some meet the usual fate. 



Mrs. Hugo Schroeter is spending sev- 

 eral months with relatives in Boston and 

 at her old home in Newport, R. I. 



Otto H. Cron, of Monroe, Mich., re- 

 ports a splendid growth in business. 

 He has placed orders with the John 

 C. Moninger Co., of Chicago, for ma- 

 terial for several new houses. 



Peter F. Reuss, who has been with 

 Schroeter all winter, has left for north- 

 ern Michigan, where he will again en- 

 gage in the fern business. H. S. 



OSKALOOSA, Ia.— The Kemble Floral 

 Co. has lately had part of its force en- 

 gaged in planting the beds in the city 

 parks, and therefore has been unusually 

 busy. The firm will plant a stock of 

 grafted Maids, Brides and Killarney in 

 part of its houses this season.
