Tbe Market. 



Christmas business began early this 

 year and its volume was satisfactory to 

 the local florists. Cut flowers were high, 

 with the result that many who other- 

 wise would have purchased flowers 

 bought potted plants. The sale of both 

 was good, however. Poinsettias were 

 unusually good this year. Begonias, 

 cyclamens, peppers, heather, etc., sold 

 well. They were of fine quality. Flo- 

 rists look forward to the coming year 

 with much more hope than they did to 

 the year 1918 when it began. The many 

 restrictions which were put on the so- 

 called nonessential industries were bur- 

 densome to the trade and, if they had 

 continued, would have caused some of 

 the florists to suspend business. This in- 

 convenience was borne in the right spirit 

 because of the knowledge that such ac- 

 tion was necessary to win the war. But 

 now that all bans have been removed the 

 florists are looking forward to the rapid 

 resumption of normal business. 



Various Notes. 



Philips Bros., Broad street, report that 

 they had an excellent Christmas busi- 

 ness. Christmas orders began coming in 

 a week or ten days before Christmas, 

 and continued to come in until Christ- 

 mas day. 



Henry A. Strobell, 931 Broad street, 

 had handsome interior decorations dur- 

 ing the week preceding Christmas. His 

 windows were also attractive. He re- 

 ports a good holiday trade. E. B. M. 



WESTERLY, B. I. 



C. D. Havens, 58 Canal street, handled 

 over 5,000 Christmas trees from Maine. 



David W. Shaw has constructed a new 

 greenhouse and completed repairs to old 

 ones on his property at Stonington. 



Conrad Schultz was a visitor in Provi- 

 dence and Boston last week. 



Smith's Flower Shop reports an un- 

 usually large run on funeral work; also 

 plants for Christmas. 



Edward L. Qavitt, 43 Beach street, 

 handled a large number of Christmas 

 trees and greens. 



Louis Eeuter, formerly of this town, 

 is now in the florists' business in Wal- 

 tham, Mass. W. H, M. 





Jamestown, B. 1. — Samuel Smith's 

 Sons is one of the old concerns making 

 steady progress. Established in 1864, 

 in addition to the greenbouses here, 

 stores are operated in Jamestown and 

 Newport. The business this autumn 

 has been large.
