DETBOIT. 



The Market. 



Eoses are easing up and the store men 

 are not quite so afraid to take an order. 

 Beauties, of course, are a rarity in this 

 city at present, only seen occasionally. 

 Carnations are quite plentiful and in 

 some instances of such poor quality that 

 it is next to impossible to dispose of 

 them. Bulbous stock is becoming more 

 plentiful as the spring draws near. 

 Tulips, daffodils, hyacinths and Paper 

 Whites are available in sufficient quan- 

 tities to supply the demand. Some ex- 

 ceptionally fine sweet peas are being 

 shipped in. Spencers bringing as high as 

 $2 per hundred. Violets are quite plen- 

 tiful, among them some fine singles. 

 Easter lilies are about equal to the 

 demand, while callas are scarce. The 

 usual line of green goods may be had. 



Various Notes. 



Thomas Browne, well known as the 

 originator of Philadelphia carnation, 

 left February 5 for Texas. 



Mr. and Mrs. Philip Breitmeyer are 

 expected to return from Cuba about 

 February 20. Harry Breitmeyer has 

 been at home for the last week, due to 

 sickness. 



Albert Stahelin, of Bedford, Mich., 

 has placed his order for a Cole touring 

 car. E. A. Fetters also is much inter- 

 ested in new cars these days. 



Louis Charvat cleaned up the market 

 on valley February 9, having a special 

 order calling for hundreds of this 

 flower. 



The publicity committee of the De- 

 troit Florists' Club held a special meet- 

 ing February 9 to complete plans for co- 

 operative advertising for St. Valen- 

 tine's day. Many of the downtown 

 stores have attractive window displays 

 appropriate to St. Valentine's day. 



About four weeks ago the wives of 

 some of the local florists announced that 

 they were going to give a dancing and 

 card party, the profits to be used in 

 erecting an outdoor porch for the Van 

 Leuven-Browne hospital for crippled 

 children. The party was held February 

 4 and was so successful that the ladies 

 now intend organizing as the Ladies' 

 Auxiliary of the Detroit Florists' Clnb 

 and meeting once a month. Mrs. E. A. 

 Fetters, assisted by Mrs. Eobert Raha- 

 ley, Mrs. Albert Stahelin, Mrs. Albert 

 Pochelon, Mrs. Hugo Schroeter, Mrs. 



CARNATION CUTTINGS- 



A splendid stock to offer our trade, not only the novelties but standard 

 varieties as well. A large supply to select from, especially grown for us. 

 Every cutting that goes out has our guarantee back of it.

John Warncke, Mrs. George Asman, 

 Mrs. E. A. Scribner, Mrs. Chas. Plumb, 

 Mrs. J. K. Stock and others, cleared a 

 tidy sum. A vote of thanks was ex- 

 tended A. Miller, of Chicago, whose do- 

 nation of a fern netted them $20. Chas. 

 Plumb also received a vote of thanks 

 for his donation of a number of plants 

 which, when sold at auction, brought in 



about $50. Fred Pautke was largely 

 responsible for the large prices obtained 

 for these plants and himself donated $5 

 toward defraying expenses. The hall 

 was most elaborately decorated, the 

 work being done under the direction of 

 the ladies with the assistance of lead- 

 ing florists.
