The Weekly Florists^ Review. 



November 18, 1909. 



DETROIT. 



ThcMaAet 



Business has been quite satisfactory 

 during the last few weeks. October was 

 a little dull at first, but a steady rush 

 toward the latter part of the month 

 brought the month's business far ahead 

 of last year. 



Stock of all kinds is plentiful, but lit- 

 tle, if any, is going to waste. Some of 

 the finest La Detroit roses ever seen are 

 at present arriving from Klagge's green- 

 houses, with stems as long as Beauties, 

 fine large flowers of good color and nice, 

 clean foliage. 



The weather has been more like spring 

 than fall. Some days the temperature 

 was as high as 60 degrees outdoors, and 

 the sun has not been backward about 

 shining either. This has brought the 

 chrysanthemums out in large numbers, 

 causing them to become a little too plen- 

 tiful for a few days. 



The demand for greens has been good, 

 as we are now in the midst of our debu- 

 tante season. 



Various Notes. 



The Michigan Cut Flower Exchange 

 has added a line of chiflFons to its list of 

 supplies. If these move well, a line of 

 staple ribbons will also be added. 



Mr. and Mrs. William Dilger left for 

 southern Kentucky Monday eve&ing, No- 

 vember 15. Mr. Dilger will return in 

 about one week, but Mrs. Dilger will per- 

 haps be gone a month. Their destination 

 is the extreme southern part of the state, 

 on the Tennessee border. Mr. Dilger will 

 leave, immediately upon arrival, for the 

 mountains to investigate Kentucky rock. 

 He has been experimenting with this rock 

 as a paving material for the last four 

 years and has finally found a way of lay- 

 ing it which makes a roadway equal to 

 any other material, including foreign or 

 domestic asphalt. The rock is pulverized 

 and then laid in the cold state. 



In my last letter I spoke, of the party 

 and fish supper at J. E. Smith's, in 

 Wyandotte. Since then so many of the 

 party of about forty who were there 

 have been singing praises for Mr. Smith 

 that I feel a few more words are neces- 

 sary. The supper of whitefish was not a 

 supper at all, but an elaborate dinner, 

 served in finest hotel style. After sup- 

 per a most enjoyable evening was spent, 

 dancing to music furnished by a string 

 orchestra. H. S. 



CARLISLE, Pa. — Roy Erb, the Louther 

 street florist, will build greenhouses on 

 the tract of ground, containing sixteen 

 lots, which he recently purchased.
