DETROIT. 



TheMaifEct 



There is nothing startling to report 

 regarding business last week, the usual 

 summer quietness prevailing. 



All seasonable stock is plentiful. Roses 

 are coming along nicely. Some fine La 

 Detroit are helping out. There is a good 

 supply of Brides, Maids, Ballarney, Me- 

 teor and Richmond. Carnations are im- 

 proving with the cool weather we have 

 been having the last week. 

 ^ X' iiany fine asters are arriving from va- 

 rious sections of the country. The sup- 

 ply has been somewhat better than the 

 demand the last few days; as a result, 

 only the better grades were disposed of. 

 Prices range all the way from 2 cents to 

 4 cents. 



Variottt Notes. 



Clyde Chase, of Schroeter's, has been 

 having his summer outing. 



G. H. Taepke's store is receiving its 

 annual overhauling. The interior finish 

 is to be olive green and gold. The whole 

 force have had their vacations and are 

 ready for another strenuous winter. 



The delegates to the convention are 

 all baek again. All seem to have en- 

 joyed themselves immensely. 



September 5 is meeting night. The 

 new officers will then be installed, and 

 every member of the club should be pres- 

 ent to give the new officers a warm re- 

 ception. 



F. J. RoBser, of this city, brought the 

 writer a sample of some exceptionally 

 fine pale pink asters recently. He hopes 

 to have a good stock for next year. 



C. Winterich and a party of friends 

 stopped off at Detroit on their return 

 . home from the Falls. H. 8. 



Leominster, Mass. — When two men 

 employed at the Kendall greenhouses 

 went to work on the morning of August 

 21, they found Amos D, Merrill lying 

 dead upon the floor of the office. Death 

 was caused by acute indigestion. 



Ashtabula, O.— R. W. Griswold, Jr., 

 is a strong supporter of the movement 

 which is being made for the annexation 

 of Bunker Hill, a tract of territory 

 south of this city, and it is reported that 

 he contemplates building a $30,000 addi- 

 tion to his greenhouses in case the move- 

 ment succeeds. An injunction was ap- 

 plied for by the opponents of annexa- 

 tion, and Mr. Griswold was called as one 

 of the witnesses in the case. He testi- 

 fied that he owned land and a green- 

 house within the limits of the proposed 

 annexation territory, valued at from 

 $12,000 to $15,000, and also twenty-three 

 acres of land, worth $1,000 per acre.
