mums have been quite scarce and it has 

 been a hard proposition to get large 

 yellow mums, but before long the mar- 

 ket will be oversupplied with yellow 

 Bonnaffon. Carnations remain well 

 cleaned up. Violets are selling readily. 

 There is a steady demand for valley in 

 large quantities. Sweet peas are arriv- 

 ing in small quantities and sell at sight.

Various Notes. 



J. F. Sullivan has been spending a 

 week in New York and the east. Nor- 

 man reports business as having opened 

 up nicely in their new store. 



All the downtown stores have at- 

 tractive Hallowe'en window displays. 

 Pumpkins and corn, of course, play au 

 important part in these decorations. 



Charles Plumb is busy unpacking 

 large shipments of azaleas. 



Hugo Schroeter will soon move into 

 his new bungalow, which is nearly 

 finished. 



Wm. Hielscher says the tendency is 

 ^ore and more towards the use of 

 wreaths and pillows. Hearts, lyres, 

 gates and other once popular designs 

 are dropping from favor. 



Mike Sullivan has taken the placo 

 vacated by J. Davidson at the establish- 

 ment of Mrs. Helen Newberry, at 

 Grosse Pointe Farms.

 is kept so busy that the firm was but

 One man is constantly kept busy pack-
