 TAXING FLORISTS. 



(Continued from last week.) 

 In Boston they have never taxeri 

 plants in pots or planted out, though 

 the former can be taxed as personal 

 property or stock in trade — whatever is 

 on hand when the assessor takes the 

 valuation and the latter added to the 

 value of the real estate. But they do 

 not go to that trouble here, as it is not 

 considered worth while. 



My experience in the city of Newton 

 was this: The real estate did not be- 

 long to me, but the stock did. They 

 taxed me in personal property instead 

 of plants. I went before the assessor 

 to remonstrate, with the result that 

 the city solicitor admitted they had no 

 right to tax the property as personal, 

 since which time the city of Newton 

 has made no assessment on greenhouse 

 stock. The same holds good in the city 

 of Boston. They have never taxed the 

 stock in greenhouses.

I have been in business here for 3.5 

 years and I have never listed plants in 

 pots or in bench or the soil, and have 

 never been asked to list them for taxa-

The regular monthly meeting of the 

 Florists' and Gardeners' Club of Rhode 

 Island was held in Franklin hall, this 

 City. May 10, and was attended by a 

 large number. The principal discus- 

 sions were in relation to the annual 

 convention of the Society of American 

 Florists, and the holding of a carna- 

 tion exhibition in connection with the 

 June meeting of the club. The latter 

 was deemed inadvisable this season. 

 The convention of the S. A. P. will be 

 held this year in New York city in Au- 

 gust. The locai delegation will be 

 joined here by the Boston contingent, 

 both going by boat.
