PROVIDENCE, R. I. 



The Market. 



Everybody reports an exceptionally 

 good Memorial day trade. The back- 

 wardness of the season caused a short- 

 age of outdoor plants and flowers, and 

 this stiffened the market oil indoor 

 stock. Never in the history of the trade 

 has there been so large a demand for 

 potted plants, geraniums being the lead- 

 ers. Some of the downtown stores made 

 a feature of rustic baskets filled with 

 plants. These took well, the prices 

 ranging from $2 to $5 at retail. Mag- 

 nolia wreaths with wax flowers found a 

 ready sale, in large numbers.
