PROVIDENCE. 



Tbe Market. 



So far the month of March has been 

 the worst as to weather conditions. 

 The temperature has been within a 

 dozen degrees of zero nearly every 

 night. There has been an unusual short- 

 age of good stock and the demand has 

 been rather heavier than usual, owing 

 largely to funerals of prominent persons. 

 Everybody is looking for a good Easter 

 business and the local growers are mak- 

 ing big promises. 



Various Notes. 



John Davis, of Little Compton, was 

 a visitor to this city and Boston last 

 week. 



Mrs. Elizabeth O'Connor is arrang- 

 ing for many changes at her range of 

 greenhouses. 



Charles Hunt, of Burnside street, has 

 planned an extended automobile trip 

 through to Chicago, as soon as settled 

 weather comes. 



Joseph E. Koppelman has sold the 

 farm section of his property at Oak- 

 lawn, retaining the greenhouses and sev- 

 eral acres of land. 



J. H. Cushing, of the Quidniek 

 Greenhouses, Quidniek, reports a large- 

 ly increased business during the last 

 few months. He is taking on more 

 assistants. 



Olney H. Williams and John Burke 

 have formed a partnership and will 

 conduct a wholesale business in cut 

 flowers, plants and supplies, on Clem- 

 ence street. 



Charles Smith visited Boston last 

 week, looking for stock for Easter. 



Ex-president Thomas Hope, of the 

 Bhode Island Horticultural Society, has 

 the sympathy of a large circle of 

 friends in the recent death of Mrs. 

 Hope. 



The Shepard Co. had an especially 

 heavy run on shamrocks in miniature 



Sots, at 5 and 9 cents each, St. Patrick 's 

 ay. 



Mr. and Mrs. H. Howard Pepper, of 

 the Melrose Eose Gardens, are spending 

 several weeks in Vermont. 



Miss Ellen O'Connor reported several 

 large funeral orders last week. 



Max Villers has returned from a 

 pleasure trip to New York and vicinity. 



Johnston Bros, have been unusually 

 busy with funeral orders. They are 

 already making heavy bookings for 

 Easter delivery. 



F. Macrae & Sons have a fine look- 

 ing lot of lilies for Easter. Fewer of 

 these flowers are being grown here- 

 abouts this year than during the last 

 several years. W. H. M.
