Variottt Notes. 



R. A. Currie, president of the Florists' 

 Club, returned, with his family, Septem- 

 ber 20, from a trip to Canada. He re- 

 ports feeling fine and ten pounds added 

 to his weight. 



The Fifth Avenue Floral Co. had its 

 hands full for the opening of the new 

 Columbus Grocery Co. J. M.

The Market. 



The condition of the market has 

 changed but little since last week. We 

 have been having unseasonably warm 

 weather. Stock is good, prices are right 

 and all we need is a good frost to start 

 things booming. No doubt election is 

 also taking the time of many people 

 who would be buying flowers. All in- 

 terest is at present writing centered 

 around Pkilip Breitmeyer, who seems 

 to be the favorite of three candidates 

 for the Republican nomination for 

 mayor. By tho time this is in print, 

 there is little doubt he will have been 

 nominated. 



Good asters are becoming scarce. 

 White ones are plentiful in the me- 

 dium grades and these are quite wel- 

 come for use in funeral work. Carna- 

 tions are improving nicely and will soon 

 replace asters. 



Qub Meetine. 



The regular meeting of the Florists' 

 Club, held September 16, was fairly well 

 attended. J. A. Bissinger, of Lansing, 

 was elected a member. Wm. Dilger was 

 pleased with this vote. He said the 

 club should encourage outsiders to join

its ranks. He hoped to some day see 

 the present Detroit Florists' Club trans- 

 formed into the Horticultural Society 

 of Michigan, a society to be made up 

 of professional florists, nurserymen, 

 etc., of Detroit, and all surrounding 

 towns in Michigan. This idea met with 

 the hearty approval of everyone 

 present. 



The committee on the revision of the 



constitution and by-laws handed in a 

 lengthy report on their revision. This 

 brought forth a spirited discussion, 

 but as this is rather an important mat- 

 ter it was moved that the whole be put 

 over until the next meeting. 



Hugo Schroeter made a motion, which 

 was carried, that printed application 

 blanks be used in the future.
