The Florists^ Review 



JULT 16. 1914. 



PROVIDENCE, B. I. 



The Market. 



While the growers are being driven 

 to their utmost preparing for a new 

 season, the retailers are practically 

 resting on their oars or enjoying a 

 vacation period of a few weeks. There 

 has been just about enough business to 

 keep things moving during the last 

 week and, as a whole, trade was satis- 

 factory for this time of the year. 

 Sweet peas and gladioli hold first place, 

 with roses good and carnations on the 

 decline. 



Various Notes. 



Charles W. Morey, of the Woon- 

 socket Hill Nurseries, Woousocket, is 

 receiving congratulations on the re- 

 cent birth of a son. 



Joseph Koppelman is having two 

 houses of Lord & Burnham iron-frame 

 construction erected at the Brookside 

 Greenhouses, East Providence, which 

 he recently acquired. One is to be 

 30x200 and the other 50x150. He will 

 also have a show room and packing 

 room combined. 



Richard Higgins has completed a 

 garage on Academy avenue large 

 enough to house a dozen or more ma- 

 chines and intends to conduct a gar- 

 age in conjunction with his green- 

 houses. 



Superintendent Davis, of the River- 

 side cemetery, at Pawtucket, is erect- 

 ing an iron-frame house for cut flow- 

 ers and bedding plants. It will be 

 30x90 feet. 



The J. A. Budlong Rose Co., of 

 Auburn, is now represented at the 

 Boston Cooperative Market by Will- 

 iam Flynn, formerly with McAlpine & 

 McDonald. 



James Hay, who for several years 

 was in charge of the Goddard estate, 

 at Potewomut, has purchased land at 

 East Greenwich, where he will erect 

 new houses for the growing of carna- 

 tions. He is a brother of William 

 Hay, of Oaklawn and this city, and of 

 Laurence Hay, of East Providence, 

 both of whom are extensive growers. 



Max Viller, formerly with Johnston 

 Bros., but now with Galvin, at Boston, 

 spent several days recently in this 

 city. 



The town council of Cumberland has 

 appointed Neil Ward, of Lonsdale, as 

 tree warden for one year. 



The heavy brass lettering on the 

 new delivery automobile of Smith the 

 Florist is quite attractive and attests 

 the artistic workmanship of Mr. Smith, 

 who did the work himself. 



James Foster has given up his retail 

 store at 496 Westminster street.
