PROVIDENCE, R. L 



The Market. 



With the advent of colder weather, 

 business is improving. There is a notice- 

 able scarcity of roses, most of our grow- 

 ers stating that their stock is now oif 

 crop. Perhaps it is well, in view of the 

 fact that the market is flooded with 

 chrysanthemums, low in price and grand 

 in quality. There is no great demand for 

 large specimen blooms of such varieties 

 as T. Eaton and Yellow Eaton, although 

 an occasional wedding decoration calls 

 for a quantity of this stock. Our best 

 selling sorts are Major Bonnaffon, Pink 

 and White Ivory, Jerome Jones and Ap- 

 pletou. At retail tliey command from $1 

 to $2 per dozen; at wholesale from $6 

 to $8 per hundred. Carnations are plen- 

 tiful and show the effects of cloudy 

 weather and undue forcing, it being al- 

 most impossible to keep them from 

 sleeping. Ordinary stock brings $1 to 

 $1.50 per hundred, fancies $2 to $3. Vio- 

 lets are not up to standard in quality, 

 nor are they likely to be until we get 

 i.iore sunshinQi Prices range from 40 

 cents to 75 cents per hundred. ' 



,^'l5 Among the Trade. 



The openiiig last week- of the largest 

 retail drug store in New England brought 

 a demand for several thousand chrysan- 

 themums and carnations which were gra- 

 tuitously distributed as souvenirs. Such 

 business enterprise is commendable. 



Alexander Kennie, of the late firm of 

 Rennie & Pino, seedsmen, has leased a 

 store on Washington street and is pre- 

 paring to open a modern retail seed 

 store within a few days. W. S. Pino will 

 continue business at the old location. 



James Crawshaw, the originator gmd 

 grower of the beautiful new Asparagus 

 Crawshawii, reports an enormous demand 

 for sprays and strings of his favorite 

 specialty. This "new asparagus, while a 

 sport from A. plumosus nanus, is in every 

 respect an improvement over the parent 

 stock. It should be seen to be appre- 

 ciated. Grown under conditions which 

 usually are given plumosus, it makes al- 

 most twice the growth, the foliage being 

 finer and more dense. Either as a deco- 

 rative plant or as a money-maker for a 

 grower of greens, it is the finest thing 

 the writer has yet seen. It is the only 

 stock Mr, Crawshaw grows in quantity.
