DETROIT. 



The Market. 



A lull before a storm, seems to de- 

 scribe the situation here at present. 

 There is, of course, the usual amount 

 of funeral work, and things are pretty 

 lively in a social way, but still the sale 

 of plants and flowers for the home has 

 fallen off. 



Chrysanthemums are about at an end; 

 there are a few stray ones, but they 

 are of little use. Roses and carnations 

 are in fairly good supply and the qual- 

 ity is fine. Valley is a little more plen- 

 tiful and meets with a good demand. 

 Sweet peas are as yet so scarce that 

 they are not to be reckoned with. 



Owing to the high price of ground 

 pine, the demand for southern smilax is 

 extra heavy. 



Various Notes. 



E. C. Fetters spent several days of 

 last week in Chicago. 



A Brush delivery car is being used by 

 The Flower Shop, with most satisfac- 

 tory results. 



The creation of waterproof ribbon 

 and chiffon has created a new use for 

 these materials. They are being used 

 extensively on cemetery wreaths, as 

 they withstand the weather. 



The Michigan Cut Flower Exchange 

 is handling Christmas trees as a side 

 line. This concern is doing a big busi- 

 ness in statice, moss wreaths, etc. 



B. Schroeter has some exceptionally 

 fine cyclamen for his Christmas trade. 



J. B. Blessing and Fred Meyer, of 

 .Tackson, were recent visitors.

KANSAS CITY, MO. 



, The weather last week was not of a 

 variety that was favorable to the roses, 

 carnations and other cut flowers; con- 

 sequ(?ntly the prices are high. We 

 usually expect a lull in trade between 

 Thanksgiving and Christmas, but such 

 has not been the case here this season. 

 The retail stores have had a busy week 

 with reception and funeral work, and 

 the fascination of beautiful store win- 



.,dow8 is quite noticeable. 



*' Sweet peas are now coming in of 

 excellent quality, with long stems, and 



'^^Hf^ -having a good sale. Potted plants 

 of all kinds are to be had now, and the 

 stores are all well prepared for the 

 great Christmas demand. 



W. J. Barnes has a fiile house of 

 begonias. E. L.
