The Florists^ Review 



Mat 11, 1922 



PROVIDENCE, R. I. 



The Market. 



Business lias been a trifle better than 

 for soiiu' time past and, with plenty of 

 stock and prices easy, the demand has 

 cleaned up the market each day. 



One of the most noticeable features in 

 connection with the florists' business in 

 this city, at least as regards the retail 

 end of it, is the growing tendency to- 

 ward cooi)erative advertising in the 

 daily newsjjapers. Already the trade has 

 commenced a systematic announcement 

 regarding Mothers' day. There is no de- 

 nial that the cooperative and systematic 

 advertisement of Easter contributed 

 materially toward making it a banner 

 holiday. 



Various Notes. 



F. Macrae's Sons are preparing for a 

 general overhauling and renovation of 

 their greenhouses, on Smith street. 



The budget for Providence for the 

 next fiscal year includes $79,000 for 

 Roger Williams park. 



George A. Carmichael, of Shannock, 

 made an automobile trip through cen- 

 tral Connecticut last week on business. 



Samuel Resnick, of Bowers & Res- 

 nick, was a business visitor in Boston 

 and vicinity last week. 



Eugene McCarron, of Hope street, re- 

 ports an unusually brisk business on 

 small weddings since Easter. 



The salary of Joseph Triggs as super- 

 intendent of parks, of Providence, has 

 been advanced from $48 to $60 per 

 week. 



Charles W. Flagg has been elected a 

 trustee of the Oak Hill Cemetery Cor- 

 poration, at Woonsocket. 



City Forester Alexander H. Johnson 

 last week cut down the city's largest 

 and, probably, its oldest tree, an elm 

 about seventy-five feet high, with a 

 spread of more than 100 feet, and be- 

 lieved to be more than 250 years old.
