The Florists^ Review 



October 30, 1919. 



PROVIDENCE, R. I. 



The Market. 



Business has been practically normal 

 during the last week, about the only im- 

 provement noticeable being in the 

 volume of counter trade in the down- 

 town section. Cooler, darker days have 

 resulted in a slight decrease in supply, 

 but stock of all kinds is coming into 

 market in much better quality. Chrys- 

 anthemums are being used plentifully 

 for all occasions. Weddings are still 

 calling for large quantities of flowers, 

 especially white roses, pf which there 

 is a shortage that has stiffened the 

 price considerably. 



Various Notes. 



The monthly meeting of the Ehode 

 Island Horticultural Society was held 

 October 22. The speaker of the evening 

 was Edward I. Farrington, of Boston, 

 who lectured on "What's New in the 

 Garden." Illustrations were shown on 

 the screen of types of flowers that have 

 been Introduced into this country in 

 recent years. Various methods of 

 raising flowers were also shown. 



Domenico Pegnitelli has commenced 

 the erection of a small greenhouse on 

 Charles street. 



O. H. Williams was a business visitor 

 in New York and vicinity last week. 



S. S. Skidelsky, of New York, was 

 in this city last week. 



L. F. Arnold has started in the retail 

 business at 128 Pettis street. 



H. A. Kranter, representing M. Van 

 Waveren & Sons, Ltd., of Hillegom, Hol- 

 land, was a business visitor last week. 



F. ladevola is erecting a small green- 

 house at 372 Hawkins street. 



William A. Bowers, of Washington 

 street, has adopted as a slogan the 

 phrase, "When vou think flowers — 

 think Bowers." ' W. H. M. 



WALTHAM, MASS. 



The Louis J. Eeuter Co., plant broker, 

 is changing its address from Waltham to 

 15 Cedar street, Watertown P. O., Bos- 

 ton, Mass. In this new location, Mr. Eeu- 

 ter says, they will be convenient to the 

 best of the plant growers around Boston, 

 besides remaining in close touch with the 

 great number of florists in outlying dis- 

 tricts of Boston who are so well known 

 in their different lines as specialists in 

 roses, carnations, etc. It has not been 

 quite a year since they started in this 

 line of business and the beginning has 

 been encouraging. Mr. Eeuter says the 

 business has grown now so that they 

 must have more oflSce room to be able to 

 handle the increasing business in a sat- 

 isfactory manner. They move to the 

 new address November ].
