DETROIT. 



The Market 



Reports vary somewhat as to the busi- 

 ness of last week. Some of the florists 

 were quite busy all the week, with fu- 

 neral work, weddings and one thing and 

 another. With others, trade was quiet. 

 Judging from the quantity of stock on 

 the market, the demand has not been any 

 too great. 



The condition of all the stock at pres- 

 ent is fine. Roses and carnations are ex- 

 ceptionally good. Sweet peas, snap- 

 dragons, stocks, irises, etc., never were 

 better. 



Graduation exercises are creating some 

 demand for flowers these days. Still, it 

 is a little early in the season for these 

 affairs. 



Various Notes. 



The Michigan Cut Flower Exchange is 

 handling large quantities of Beauties, 

 and finds a good demand for them. 



The funeral of the late ex-mayor of 

 Detroit, Wm. C. Maybury, caused a big 

 demand for flowers of all kinds. Many 

 hundred Beauties were used, as well as 

 any number of wreaths and several large 

 designs. 



Several of the store people are con- 

 templating alterations in their stores. 

 G. H. Taepke is planning a fine conserva- 

 tory in the rear of his store. J. F. Sul- 

 livan also expects to alter his store front 

 and make other alterations as soon as the 

 busy season is over. 



B. Schroeter is doing a good business 

 in bay trees and boxwoods. 



The Detroit Cut Flower Supply House 

 is finding a ready sale for some fine 

 sweet peas, which it is receiving daily. 



A baby boy arrived at the home of 

 Mrs. S. Wells, daughter of E. A. Fetters, 

 last week. Mr. Fetters now has two 

 grandchildren, and is still but a young 

 man himself. H. S. 



Wakefield, Mass. — Charles (!'. Ball, 

 brother of Catcher Ball, of the Boston 

 Nationals, and himself a former knight 

 of the diamond, has purchased the proj)- 

 erty of H. E. Wiley, at the corner of 

 Yale and North avenues, and is busy re- 

 pairing and rebuilding the old houses, 

 with a view to starting business as a 

 florist in the near future. The site is 

 centrally located and is convenient for 

 transportation. For some years Mr. Wiley 

 had a successful business, but about ten 

 years ago he turned his attention to other 

 interests and since then the houses have 

 not been used.
