also are cutting an excellent crop of 

 roses and carnations. 



W. J. Vesey, Jr., spent several days 

 in Chicago on a business trip. 



A representative of the A. L. Ran- 

 dall Co., Chicago, called on the florists 

 here last week. 



W. J. & M. S. Vesey are cutting some 

 fine Cattleya Mossiie. Their rose cut is 

 large, but they predicted a shortage 

 of carnations for Memorial day. There 

 is a fine showing of all kinds of bed- 

 ding plants at their greenhouses.

PROVIDENCE, R. I. 



The Market. 



Tliere was a shortage of flowers for 

 Memorial day, although the supply of 

 potted plants was large enough to meet 

 all demands. The lateness of the sea- 

 son has greatly curtailed all outdoor 

 flowers, while the dark, sunless days of 

 last week checked the greenhouse prod- 

 ucts. Carnations were especially short 

 and commanded as high as $10 per hun- 

 dred. Roses were plentiful. A few 

 peonies and some liMes are in the 

 market. 



In potted plants the greatest demand 

 was for geraniums, but several of the 

 downtown stores made specialties of 

 made-up rustic baskets that brought 

 good prices and found ready sale. Mag- 

 nolia leaf wreaths with wax flowers 

 were also heavy sellers. 



Various Notes. 



Walter Lowe has moved into a new 

 store at 2202 Broad street, Pawtucket. 

 He reports an excei)tionally busy month 

 in outdoor work. 



.John .Johnston, of Johnston Bros., 

 made a business visit to Boston last 

 week. 



More than 100 laborers in the public 

 park department, under Superintendent 

 Fred C. ©reen, went on strike May 22, 

 demanding an increase of 25 cents per 

 day. A compromise has been effected. 



Mr. and Mrs. Timothy L. O'Connor 

 will spend the summer at the Ma^ew- 

 son House, Narragansett Pier. 



Domenico D'Acchioli, who wae man- 

 ager of the Seamans Farm, on Atwood 

 avenue, where he grew large quanti- 

 ties of carnations, died suddenly of 

 heart disease May 21. He was 53 years
