PROVIDENCE, R, I. 



Trade G>nditions. 



All the stores have received their holi- 

 day stock of potted plants, ferns, etc., 

 and the moderate weather has already 

 given the dealers an opportunity to move 

 many orders. Prices range well and 

 buying is active. In cut flowers, carna- 

 tions and roses, with narcissi, hold the 

 away. A few chrysanthemums straggle 

 in and occasionally lilies make their ap- 

 pearance. Violets from local beds have 

 fallen to less than half the normal cut, 

 owing to the dark, damp days that have 

 been experienced during the last fort- 

 night. 



Various Notes. 



Representatives of Bayersdorfer & Co., 

 of Philadelphia, and Reed & Keller, ot 

 New York, were in the city last week, 

 calling upon the trade. 



John F. Wood has opened his new 

 store at 167 Westminster street. It is 

 one of the best locations in the city and 

 Mr. Wood has had the interior attractive- 

 ly arranged. 



A. Holscher is bringing in some good 

 violets, although rather short in crop. 



The Keller Co. is arranging to open 

 its new store, at 220 Weybosset street, 

 the first of the week. 



O'Connor's windows, filled with poin- 

 settias and English primroses, were one 

 of the show attractions of Westminster 

 street last week. 



The monthly meeting of the Rhode 

 Island Florists' and Gardeners' Club will 

 be held Monday evening. December 21, 

 at which time plans and arrangements 

 will be discussed for the annual banquet. 



J. F. SchelUnger & Son, of Riverside, 

 are cuttirig some excellent carnations. 



Charles H. Hunt, on Burnside street, 

 has had a big run during the last two 

 weeks on small potted rubbers. Strong, 

 vigorous plants found ready sale.
