The Florists' Review 



NOVEUBBR 9, 1916. 



PROVIDENCE, R. I. 



The Market. 



Market conditions have shown a con- 

 stant improvement during the last fort- 

 night and are gradnally assuming the 

 normal, both as regards supply, demand 

 and prices. Carnations continue a trifle 

 short, but roses are good stock, and 

 chrysanthemums, although abundant, 

 clean up well each day. While fancy 

 single blooms command a good sale, 

 there is an increasing demand for the 

 medium heads and bunches of the small 

 varieties. Funeral and decorative work 

 was fairly active last week and a large 

 number of social functions on the calen- 

 dar promise well for the future. 



Vaxious Notes. 



An attractive wedding took place 

 October 30, when Miss Juliette P. 

 Hazard was united in marriage to John 

 A. Macrae, the well known florist of 

 this city. The ceremony was performed 

 at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Clifton T. 

 Brownell, on Wood street, which was 

 profusely decorated with palms, ferns, 

 chrysanthemums and carnations. 



John Johnston, of Johnston Bros., re- 

 cently was appointed district deputy of 

 the Florists' Telegraph Delivery for 

 Massachusetts, Ehode Island and Con- 

 necticut. 



William Blease is erecting a green- 

 house 20x50 on Newport avenue, 

 Pawtucket. 



William B. Hazard has withdrawn 

 his name as nominee off the Kepublican 

 ticket as alderman from the Tenth 

 ward. 



M. J. Leach & Sons, of Pawtucket, 

 have purchased the greenhouses of 

 M. Smith, at Rumford, and will remove 

 them to Pawtucket. The sashes were 

 purchased by Johnston Bros. 



John Marshall, of Centerdale, has 

 abandoned one of his greenhouses until 

 February on account of the increased 

 price of coal. 



The Flower Growers' Outlet, 317 

 Westminster street, celebrated its 

 third anniversary October 30 by hold- 

 ing a Halloween sale. W. H. M. 



Racine, Wis. — C. Wiedeback has suc- 

 ceeded John Bourgaise in the business 

 at 912 Milwaukee avenue, which, will be 

 operated under tlie name of West Side
