The Market. 



Business is most satisfactory, with 

 an ample supply of stock of all kinds 

 on hand. Social activities have started 

 rather earlier than usual this season and 

 there are indications that they will con- 

 tinue with a busy whirl for several 

 months to come. Chrysanthemums of 

 all varieties and sizes are in supply 

 slightly in excess of the demand, with 

 a consequent shading of prices. Provi- 

 dence has not yet acquired the taste for 

 extra fancy single blooms and rarely is 

 a customer found who will pay more 

 than $2 or $2.50 per dozen. 



Various Notes. 



Albert Holscher is showing at his 

 greenhouses one of the choicest lines of 

 chrysanthemums ever seen hereabouts, 

 notwithstanding that his sales have 

 been exceptionally large. 



A large automobile truck smashed 

 through the plate glass display window 

 of the Quality Flower Store, 144 Main 

 street, Pawtucket, recently, causing 

 about $150 damage to window and 

 stock. 



George L. Stillman, of Westerly, ac- 

 companied by Mrs. Stillman, has been 

 spending several days in New York 

 city. W. H. M. 



NEWPORT, R. I. 



Alex. MacLellan was a business visi- 

 tor to New York for several days last

V. A. Vanicek, of the Ehode Island 

 Nurseries, was one of the principal buy-
