The Fbrists' Review 



OCTOBEB 28, 1918. 



PROVIDENCE, B. I. 



The Market. 



Prices last week were the highest 

 that this city has experienced in many 

 months, having ruled fully a third 

 higher than is usual at this period. It 

 is merely the application of the prin- 

 ciple of supply and demand. There 

 was an extreme shortage of carnations 

 and an indifferent supply of chrysan- 

 themums, with an almost extraordi- 

 nary call for flowers because of nu- 

 merous antenuptial showers, receptions 

 and other functions, and many wed- 

 dings. Roses are in good supply, but 

 the weight of the market falling upon 

 them has caused a material stiffening 

 in prices all along the line.
