The Best 

 White 



Pest for quantity. 



This variety is bound to supplant other whites, as it not only produces as many, or more flowers, but every one 

 of them comes with a perfect calyx, borne on a long stem, supporting the bloom in perfect shape. This fact makes 

 it greatly superior to other varieties as a money maker. We have 20,000 cuttings in the sand for January delivery. 

 Rooted CuttinsB, $8.00 per doien, $18.00 per 100, $100.00 per 1000. 



Satisfaction guaranteed* See classified adv. for price list of Standard Varieties.

GRAND RAPIDS. 



The Market. 



It is a little late to talk about Christ- 

 mas, two weeks after the event, but it 

 may interest the trade to know that in 

 Grand Hapids business was good, fully 

 equal to that done in 1907 and some re- 

 port a slight gain. Plants sold well, al- 

 though there were more than enough for 

 all demands. Cut flowers cleaned up 

 well. Out-of-town buyers held off from 

 placing orders early and the shipping 

 trade came with a rush and exceeded 

 that of last year. 



Henry Smith did a little better than 

 in 1907, cut flowers selling out close, but 

 with plenty of plants to fill all orders. 

 He made a hit with poinsettia plants. 



Eli Cross is well satisfied with his 

 trade. Ho was lucky in having a house 

 of Beacon in full crop. He did a big 

 holly and green trade. 



The Grand Rapids Floral Co. sold 

 heavily on plants and had not a flower 

 left, unless bulb stock. 



Wm. Cunningham did better than he 

 expected and ran more to plants than 

 cut flowers. 



Chas. Chadwick, in spite of his re- 

 moval from Monroe to a side street, was 

 agreeably surprised at the good business. 



Bruinslot & Sons had a nice lot of late 

 mums that hit Christmas right. Their 

 business was as good as in 1907. 



Miss Hartnett had a fine trade and 

 says business was better than in 1907. 

 She sold mostly cut flowers. 



The Wealthy Avenue Floral Co. re- 

 ports the best Christmas in many years. 



Paul Goebel sold out clean. 



Crabb & Hunter enjoyed a good trade, 

 being cleaned out of everything in both 

 cut flowers and plants. 



James Schols sold out clean on violets 

 and could have sold many more. 



Chas. W. Garfield has been elected a 

 director of the Grand Rapids Greenhouse 

 Co., in place of Frank Strong, who re- 

 cently died. G. F. C. 



Thx BsvnEW is ahead of any other 

 paper for florists and I cannot do with- 

 out it. — H, W. Wright', Amarillo, Tex. 



Massillon, O. — N. E. Beck says busi- 

 ness has been quiet, but prospects are for 

 a renewal of good times in the spring. 

 He has enlarged his plant this fall so 

 that he now has two good houses, each 

 25x150. He makes a specialty of 

 chrysanthemums and bedding stock for 

 wholesale trade.
