Various Notes. 



The rose and carnation show to be 

 held here next January is already re- 

 ceiving much publicity in the Detroit 

 papers. In Sunday's Free Press there 

 appeared advertisements from nearly 

 every florist in the city, covering a 

 page and one-half, with a large head- 

 ing across the top and a column write- 

 up announcing the show. 



Breitmeyer's windows are ringing in 

 the holidays with myriads of bells sus- 

 pended from above. 



An immense snow-white bell with 

 appropriate surroundings is -ftroclaim- 

 ing Santa Glaus in E. A. Fetters' win- 

 dow. 



Mums are all gone, wAh one excep- 

 tion. The beautiful white pompon, 

 Helen Newberry, now about to be dis- 

 seminated by Fred Breitmeyer and 

 Fred Pautke, is still available on the 

 local market. 



The opening of a large bowling alley 

 in Detroit last week resulted in B. 

 Schroeter having a big decoration this 

 week. 



Wm. Dilger has on hand 1,500 Christ- 

 mas trees, of exceptionally fine qual- 

 ity, which will help gladden the hearts 

 of many Detroit children. 



Seasonable weather is always best 

 for business, and no one knows it bet- 

 ter than Albert Pochelon, of the Bemb 

 Floral Co. Nevertheless Mr. Pochelon 

 is rejoicing at the "just-like-summer" 

 weather we are having, as it enables 

 the contractor working on his building 

 to make good progress. In another 

 week the roof will be on the place. 



The enlarging of the basement and 

 rebuilding of the rear of J. F. Sulli- 

 van's store is now completed. What 

 was formerly a dark, crowded room is 

 now a splendidly arranged, well lighted 

 work and shipping room. Mr. Sullivan 

 is well pleased with business so far 

 this season. 



Ferdinand Kolbe is busy getting a 

 stock of mum plants for next season. 

 Mr. Kolbe is wise in looking into the 

 retailers' requirements and growing 

 accordingly. H. S. 



Mitchell, S. D. — The Newburys, pro- 

 prietors of the Mitchell Greenhouses & 

 Nurseries, have secured the local 

 agency for the Day Utility Car, made 

 in Detroit by the Day Automobile Co. 

 The machine is so constructed that it 

 can be quickly transformed from a 

 touring car into an attractive and 

 roomy light delivery car.
