are to be had. One day last week the 

 total number coming from the Bath City 

 was seventy-five carnations. A few as- 

 ters are still to be had and come quite 

 handy for work, and once in a while 

 some find their way into a spray or bet- 

 ter piece. 



Qub Meetiii£. 



The meeting of the club held Monday 

 evening, October 4, was not as well at- 

 tended as was expected. The essay and 

 program committee was open for sug- 

 gestions from the members before ar- 

 ranging for the season's program. 



President Plumb called on every mem- 

 ber present for some suggestion which 

 might be of use to the committee, and 

 each one responded with his views. If 

 all the suggestions for essays, talks, de- 

 bates, etc., are carried out we should have 

 a most interesting year. 



William Dilger was enthusiastic about 

 good roads. He thought that an evening 

 spent discussing this most important sub- 

 ject would be well worth the time spent. 

 Mr. Dilger believes the question of better 

 roads is of the deepest interest to every 

 one, not only in America, but all over the 

 civilized world. 



It was suggested that we have essays 

 on advertising, store management, grow- 

 ing specialties, window trimming, getting 

 young blood for our business, and, in 

 fact, as many subjects were mentioned 

 as there are days in the year. 



The question of the extreme scarcity 

 of stock was brought up. Carnations in 

 particular are away behind this year. 

 Mr. Bloy spoke of cutting 600 carna- 

 tions from a given number of plants last 

 September, as against 6,000 from about 

 the same number of plants in September, 

 1908. The scarcity is attributed to the 

 smallness of the plants, due to hot, diy 

 weather this summer. 



Alex La Monde, John Bains and A. 

 Tuson, all of Grosse Pointe Farms, were 

 unanimously elected members of the club. 



Various Notes.

 good." While the Phillies are mourning 

 the loss of the pennant, the Detroit peo-

pie are rejoicing, especially several of 

 the florists, who received good orders in 

 the form of horseshoes and pennant flags. 

 Sullivan made a large flag in yellow and 

 black, a gift from the city of Detroit to 

 the Tigers. Taepke's made a six-foot 

 horseshoe with a very white sock in the 

 center, the same being presented to the 

 White Socks of Chicago by the Detroit 

 Fans' Club. 



Store openings are still claiming the 

 attention of several in the trade. In 

 fact, these semiannual affairs are becom- 

 ing a big thing in our city. With a few 

 exceptions, nothing but the best is used, 

 including palms by the hundreds, vases 

 of good grades of flowers and baskets 

 containing foliage plants trimmed with 

 suitable bows of ribbon. E. A. Fetters
