DETROIT. 



The Market. 



We are at; present having some real 

 winter weather, but there is work enough 

 so that everyone can keep hustling and 

 keep warm. Weddings seem to be more 

 in vogue again; at least, there has been 

 more call for flowers for weddings than 

 since before the holidays. Funeral work 

 has also been calling for many orders. 



The local wholesale houses have been 

 receiving some fine roses, with the quality 

 improving daily. In pink the La De- 

 troit is at present carrying off all honors. 

 Bichmond and Bhea Beid are both good 

 in reds. Carnations are a little off crop, 

 but this is offset by the generous supply 

 of bulbous stock arriving daily. So far 

 the latter is cleaning up without any 

 trouble. There has been a good demand 

 for the fine double Mt. Clemens violets. 

 Green of all kinds is plentiful. 



McKinley's birthday created only a 

 slight demand for carnations in this mar- 

 ket for local use, but shipments for this 

 day were heavy, especially to Buffalo. 



Club Meeting. 



Detroit will have one of the important 

 fall shows of 1909, if the action taken 

 at the club meeting February 1 results 

 as is expected. Arrangements have not 

 yet been begun, but everyone was told to 

 get ready. 



On motion of J. F. Sullivan, the club 

 endorsed William Dilger for park com- 

 missioner. A petition for submission to 

 Mayor Breitmeyer was drawn up for the 

 signature of the club members. 



The sick committee reported George 

 Backham seriously ill. H. Knope is get- 

 ting along nicely. 



Various Notes. 



At a recent meeting of the Florists' 

 Club a vase of carnations of the Har- 

 lowarden color attracted considerable at- 

 tention. These were August Von Boese- 

 lager 'a new seedling, Clara. The blooms 

 shown gave every promise that the vari- 

 ety was a good acquisition and worth 

 further consideration. 



The annual carnation show of the De- 

 troit Florists' Club is to be held in the 

 quarters of the Michigan Cut Flower
