TheWeeidy Florists' Review* 



Septembeu 11, 1902. 



;,, BOSTON. 



Business. 



There is yet Very little Ijeing clone, 

 but things are surely gaining and as 

 all kinds of material are getting really 

 quite scarce, the waste barrels have oc- 

 casion fo go on a vacation now if they 

 wish. And, too, the demand and supply 

 are so nearly balanced that prices re- 

 main low as usual. 



Friday night frosts were reported 

 around us in all directions, but no real 

 damage was done thereby. 



Much comment is caused by the rumor 

 that about twenty-five growers, mostly 

 composed of parties unable to obtain 

 stalls at Park street last year, have 

 started a new market on Province court 

 under the leadership of Mr. Le Carpcn- 

 tier. Now, if I were to ask a question 

 of the directors of the old market, it 

 would be as to whether they really tried 

 liavd enough to obtain larger quarters 

 tliis summer or not. Of course the large 

 premiums ou their limited nuniljer of 

 stalls would naturally keep them in the 

 old place as long as expedient, but tlieic 

 IS no question that the removal of no 

 more than twenty-five bidders will affect 

 premiums on next Saturday's sale very 

 much, especially if more s"talls are of- 

 fered in the new market at only a small 

 rental. 



Tlie numbers of the two old phones 

 at the Park street market have been 

 changed to 7-17 and 70S. Persons callin.^ 

 "s uj. should use the latter miml)er 

 « Inch tact you should scratch upon vour 

 patent leathers so as not (o forget 'it.

 shooting. Perry Green ranks 23 out of
