PROVIDENCE. 



The Market. 



The market has dropped slightly dur- 

 ing tlie week, although prices still hold 

 up well and there is a more settled con- 

 dition. The demand is still apace with 

 the supply and stock of all grades every 

 day witnesses a clean-up. Funeral work 

 continues active, for which there is an 

 increasing call for artificial stuff. There 

 was considerable call for cut flowers 

 last week, which was one of social gayety 

 unprecedented for these dull times. 

 Roses and carnations have supported the 

 market for weeks, but a few Paper 

 Whites arc making their appearance. 

 Roses continue at from $10 to $25 per 

 hundred. Carnations and Paper Whites 

 bring from $6 to $10 per hundred.
