is 150 feet in length and the other is 100 

 feet. Mr. Dunbar has gone out of busi- 

 ness and is disposing of his houses and 

 appointments. 



James B. Canning had the decorations 

 for the annual ball and concert of the 

 Providence Permanent Firemen's Belief 

 Association, and also for the big Outlet 

 ball. 



Guiseppe Silvaggio has been granted 

 permission to erect a greenhouse at 685 

 Manton avenue. 



John Wood had twenty-five valentine 

 corsage bouquets for a dinner party at 

 the Narragansett Hotel Friday evening. 

 These were of violets, with Richmond 

 roses in the center of each bunch of 100 

 violets. 



There were a large number of hand- 

 some pieces at the funeral of United 

 States Congressman Daniel L. D. 

 Granger, of this city, on Wednesday, 

 February 17. One of the most conspicu- 

 ous was an immense cross of roses, galax 

 leaves and freesias from Johnston Bros. 



N. D. Pierce, of the Norwood Floral 

 Co., had all of the family, school and 

 neighborhood pieces for the funerals of 

 the four children in that village who 

 were drowned while skating a few days 



ago. , . 



Elmer E. King, of Attleboro, is bring- 

 ing in some fine bulbous stock. On Sat- 

 urday he cut 2,000 daffodils for the local 

 market. He has been averaging half that 

 number daily for several weeks.

The Market 



The demand for cut stock Jast week 

 was really good and the wholesalers were 

 cleaning up well, considering the amount 

 of stock that came in each morning. 

 While there is no glut at present, there 

 is enough coming in to supply the wants 

 of the retailers and also the shipping 

 trade. The Lenten season, which set in 

 this week, will, of course, put a stop to 

 the large weddings, dinners and recep- 

 tions for a while at least. Then, if this 

 fine, warm weather keeps up, we may 

 look for a glut in the wholesale market 

 by the end of the week. 



More good roses could be sold, but of 

 these the market has been somewhat shy 

 of late. Carnations, too, cleaned up last 

 week. Violets sold well and cheap, as 

 the market had plenty. Bulbous stock, 

 too, was equal to the demand and cheap. 

 Smilax, galax and leucothoe sold well. 

 Asparagus sprays are scarce, but there 

 are plenty of fancy and common ferns.
