Mabch 12, 1914.

DETROIT. 



Ladies' Auxiliary. 



The (lancing party given recently by 

 the wives and daughters of the De- 

 troit florists was such a success that 

 the ladies have now organized as the 

 Ladies' Auxiliary of the Detroit Flo- 

 rists' Club. The first meeting was held 

 February 26, when the following offi- 

 cers were elected: 



President, Mrs. E. A. Fetters. 



Vice-president, Mrs. Chas. H. Plumb. 



Secretary, Mrs. Albert Stahelin. 



Treasurer, Mrs. Robert Rahaley. 

 . Meetings will be held on the second 

 and fourth Fridays of each month. At 

 a meeting held March 9 seventeen mem- 

 bers "were in attendance and plai^ 

 were formulated for carrying on con- 

 siderable charity work among Detroit's 

 needy. For the present the sesstens will 

 be held in the beautiful rooms on the 

 second floor of the store of the Bemb 

 Floral Co. 



Various Notes. 



The Michigan Cut Flower Exchange 

 is finally launched in the new quarters, 

 which are without any doubt as com- 

 modious and complete in detail as those 

 of any commission house in the coun- 

 try. The two mammoth coolers holding 

 the cut flowers are on the ground floor, 

 where there is a plentiful supply of 

 daylight. A gallery running along one 

 side and across the front of the ground 

 floor holds the accounting department, 

 also many display cases for supplies. 

 The basement will serve as storage 

 space for greens, etc. On the second 

 floor will be carried a complete stock 

 of supplies. The third floor is occu- 

 pied by the Hielscher Wire Works. 



B. Schroeter decorated the Palestine 

 Lodge House for its open house week 

 and for the dedication night, using 

 many loads of palms, ferns and bloom- 

 ing plants, as well as considerable 

 southern smilax. H. S. 



C. H. Maynard states that he is or- 

 ganizing a stock company to conduct a 

 wholesale flower and supply house in 

 Detroit. He has lately severed his con- 

 nections with the Detroit Supply House. 

 He expects to opeli April 1, on Broad- 

 way. 



HAMMONTON, N. J. 



H. J. Rolfe suffered considerable dam- 

 age in the recent storm. Ice formed on 

 {telephone wires over his range, and the 

 high wind tore it loose in big chunks, 

 hurling it through the glass below. Mr. 

 Bolfe is marketing ]ettuce of fine qual- 

 ity and is propagating chrysanthemums 

 heavily. 



J. Murray Bassett has been laid up 

 for several weeks with pleurisy. 



0. F. Crowell, one of the recent addi- 

 tions to the wholes'ale cut flower grow- 

 ers here, !?affered considerable damage 

 to his dwelling in the recent blizzard. 



New York state growers have pur- 

 chased in Hammonton more than a 

 million of the double-crop raspberry, 

 Ravere. B.
