THE LEAGUE. 



Many seedsmen who have before them 

 the very difficult determination of retail 

 prices for printing in seed catalogues will 

 be glad to learn that the directors of the 

 Wholesale Seedsmen's League are to hold 

 a meeting October 20, after which they 

 will issue a list of what the Board of 

 the League considers to be near the cor- 

 rect wholesale trade values of the sixty 

 or seventy sorts of garden seeds which 

 are known to be in short supply. 



Of course these values are only sug- 

 gestive, no one being in any way bound 

 to follow the rates, yet these assumed 

 values being issued by a party of nine 

 men fully informed of conditions both in 

 America and Europe, the intimated rates 

 will of course be of inestimable value to 

 the wholesale 'trade, and equally so to the 

 retail trade catalogue men, who can use 

 the wholesale valuations as a starting 

 point from which they can make their 

 retail catalogue prices.

The Market. 



Business last week among the retail- 

 ers was reported good. The wholesalers, 

 too, say that they have been cleaning up 

 pretty well each day. There is not an 

 oversupply of anything at present and 

 the quality of the stock is becoming bet- 

 ter daily. 



This is Centennial week. The city is 

 crowded with visitors and the trade is 

 looking for a good business week. There 

 are also quite a few large weddings on 

 for this month and we are looking for 

 the awakening of our business from now 

 on. The wholesalers were cleaned up 

 early last Monday morning, October 4, 

 as consignments were light. The prices 

 have stiffened up a little as compared 

 with those of the previous week. 



Beauties are coming in fine in color 

 and meet with a good demand in all 

 grades. Other roses are also selling well. 

 Carnations, as usual at this time of the 

 year, are scarce, but they show an im- 

 provement in color and stem. Mums are 

 as yet limited to a few dozen. Violets 

 are looking better each day. Extra good 

 valley is still at $3 per hundred. Asters 

 are over for this season. Other outdoor 

 stock is becoming scarce. All greens are 

 plentiful, except smilax. 



Various Notes. 



Henry Emunds, of Belleville, was a 

 caller on Saturday, October 2. He re- 

 ports that he has just completed his new 

 carnation house, 22x150, and is expecting 

 a big cut of carnations this season. 



Andy Hoffman, of Waldbart 's, was 

 visiting in Chicago last week. He is 

 now back at his post, much pleased with 

 his trip. 



Of the thousand mayors who visited us 

 last week, none was more welcome than 

 the Hon. Phil Breitmeyer, mayor of De- 

 troit. His escort during his stay was
