The Market. 



With Labor day passed, the summer 

 migrants have commenced to return 

 to their city homes. The result has 

 been a slightly increased demand for 

 cut flowers and potted plants, but fu- 

 neral work continues to be the main 

 activity. All the greenhousemen re- 

 port a satisfactory condition of all 

 kinds of stock and the outlook is most 

 encouraging. 



Various Notes. 



Swan Peterson is erecting a 20x70- 

 foot addition to his greenhouses at East 

 Providence. 



John Marshall, of the Fruit Hill 

 Greenhouses, is shipping regularly a 

 fine lot of Scotch heather and Aspar- 

 agus plumosus to the Boston market- 

 Louis J. Reuter, of Westerly, was 

 high man at the Labor day trap shoot- 

 ing tourney of the South Country Eod 

 and Gun Club. 



Considerable damage was done Sep- 

 tember 5 when a heavily loaded auto 

 truck, becoming unmanageable, crashed 

 into the greenhouse of John A. Macrae. 



A dwelling house belonging to Wal- 

 ter S. Sword, of Valley Falls, was badly 

 gutted by fire last week. The house 

 is close to Mr. Sword's greenhouses, but 

 fortunately the flames did not spread. 



The Rhode Island Horticultural So- 

 ciety this week held its fall flower sho'vwv 

 of dahlias, asters and gladioli at the' 

 Narragansett hotel. 



Carmichael Bros., of Shannock, are 

 cutting some exceptionally fine Amer- 

 ica gladioli, which find a ready sale not 

 only in the local market but also at 

 Boston and New York. There has been 

 an unusual demand for gladioli for dec- 

 orative purposes at Narragansett Pier 



f^his S6S.80I1 



George W. Crawbuck, of New York, 

 was a visitor in this vicinity last week. 



The Empire Floral Co. is having a 

 new icebox installed in its store at 9 

 Empire street. 



Joseph Smith, with Smith, the Flo- 

 rist, was a visitor to Boston last week. 



The T. J. Johnston Co. had an attrac- 

 tive window last week. It represented 

 a rustic scene with ferns and potted 

 plants, and was screened to permit a 

 showing of nearly a score of canary 

 birds. W. H. M.
