PROVIDENCE, R. I. 



The Market. 



Stimulated by an extra good business 

 for Valentine's day, the last few days 

 preceding the beginning of the Lenten 

 season kept the florists busy and the re- 

 ports all indicate that the volume of 

 trade was considerably in excess of 

 that of last year. Prices were well 

 jnaintained, although not high, and the 

 supply kept the market in constant 

 swing. Violets had the first call, with 

 sweet peas closely following and or- 

 chids in good demand among the ultra 

 classes. The increasing demand for or- 

 chids which has been developed by the 

 constant display of the blooms is the 

 principal feature in connection with 

 .this year's business in this city. 



Various Notes. 



Smith the Florist, on Washington 

 •street, has been especially busy on fu- 

 neral work, having had a dozen pieces 

 a day on several occasions.

 tensive repairs as soon as the present 

 season is over.
