PROVIDENCE. 



The Market 



Business since the first of the year has 

 been quite satisfactory, and with several 

 firms has been in excess of last year. 

 Cloudy weather, following the several 

 days of storms, had the effect of some- 

 what curtailing the supply, but there was 

 no actual scarcity. Funeral work has 

 been heavy, which, combined with numer- 

 ous parties, receptions and other social 

 functions, has kept the florists on the 

 move, and stock'of all kinds is practically 

 cleaned up daily. 



Carnations and roses continue in good 

 demand and prices range about normal. 

 Violets are plentiful and, notwithstand- 

 ing the cut rates by department and drug 

 stores, prices are normal. Bulbous stock 

 is beginning to come in, yellow daffodils 

 and tulips moving well at $3 to $4 per 

 hundred. Stevia, narcissi, peas, valley 

 and white hyacinths are in good supply. 

 Potted flowering azaleas are about the 

 only thing that is too scarce to meet the 

 demand.

Club Banquet. 



The fourteenth annual banquet of the 

 Florists' and Gardeners' Club of Rhode 

 Island was held Monday evening, Janu-

 Westminster hotel, and was the most suc-

the organization. During the evening 

 the newly elected officers were installed, 

 and the retiring president, Charles S. 

 Macnair, was presented with a gold foun-
