. Florists' review [microform]. Floriculture. 98 The Florists^ Review OCTOBBB 25. 1917. USINOEB'S UTTEBANCES. The greenhouses of Boehringer Bros., at Bay City, Mich., are surrounded by a small northern forest, pines and spruces, the work of the landscape man. In the houses are many roses and many Christ- mas flowering plants. The J. B. Goetz Sons, at Saginaw, Mich., report a successful season. A scarcity of stock was felt, but the mums were coming along nicely and soon were expected to fill the gap. Grohman, the Florist, of Saginaw, be- lieves that the season will be a big one, from present indications. J. A. Bissinger, of Lansing, Mich., was cutting fine mums. All the stock in the greenhouses was at its best. Harry Saier, of Lansing, has redeco- rated his store. Several new display baskets of large proportions were filled with seasonable plants. The new owners of the Lansing Floral Co. report a good business. The Alpha Floral Co., at Lansing, had an exceptional display of roses and mums. Funeral work and cut flower sales were reported excellent. The Eock Gardens Greenhouses, at Mount Clemens, Mich., are within five miles of an army aviation camp. A. von Boeselager hopes that in case the avia- tors fly at night, they will not mistake his range for an inland lake and drop bombs on it. Machines by the score are daily seen flying above the place. Carey's Flower Shop, at Mount Clem- ens, is enjoying a good fall trade, thanks to the many visitors at the bath estab- lishments. Ann Arbor, Mich., florists are again active, the university having opened. Cousins & Hall, of Ann Arbor, have their greenhouses in shape for fall and winter business. Chrysanthemums are being grown in large numbers. The Arcade Flower Shop, of Ann Ar- bor, is again open. The owners enjoy a large kodak and finishing business, which makes a good side line. F. A. Norton, of Ypsilanti, Mich., is anticipating a larger business with the opening of the normal school there. Joseph B. Blessing, of Jackson
