PROVIDENCE, R. L 



The Market 



The scarcity of cut flowers and the 

 great demand for them during last week 

 caused a big jump in prices at retail. 

 On Friday, in addition to the accelerated 

 demand for carnations, apropos of Car- 

 nation day or McKinley day, the public 

 schools of this city held their semiannual 

 graduation exercises in the grammar, 

 grades, and many baskets and bouquets 

 were used for the occasion. There are 

 sixteen grammar schools which sent out 

 a class, the aggregate number of gradu- 

 ates being 600, and as the number of 

 floral pieces would average at least one 

 for every second scholar, the florists were 

 kept pretty busy. The prices received 

 for bouquets ranged from $3 to $5, while 

 baskets brought from $5 to $10. Car- 

 nations the same day retailed at 10 cents, 

 15 cents and 20 cents apiece, and even 

 25 cents for extra fine stock. The price 

 per dozen was from $1 to $2.25. 



Various Notes. 



A visit to William Hay's range last 

 week found his new rose house, 45x85, in 

 excellent condition. This is planted to 

 Killarney, Kichmond, Bride and Brides- 

 maid roses, and his daily cuttings are 

 astonishing. The flowers are among the 

 best and find ready sale at good prices. 



Mr. Green, representing Bayersdorfer 

 & Co., of Philadelphia, was in the city 

 last week. 



M. J. Leach had nearly a dozen large 

 pieces for the big masonic funeral of 

 (Jeorge E. Whipple, at Pawtucket, Satur- 

 day. 



The State Board of Agriculture is 

 holding demonstrations on spraying for 

 San Jose scale in different parts of the 

 state. These demonstrations are being 

 largely attended by the farm owners. 



W. H. M. 



Amherst, Mass. — Orange Bennett 

 Burrill, of South Haven, Mich., a grad- 

 uate student in landscape gardening

 lege, has been appointed agricultural in-

 gardens. He will collect seeds, inspect
