to do with causing the condensation of 

 watery vapor. The very fact that the air 

 is quite warm in the room naturally in- 

 creases its water-holding capacity and 

 tends to increase the trouble from con- 

 densation. Merely providing for a change 

 of air in the room, by means of a ven- 

 tilator in the roof or by windows in op- 

 posite ends of the shed, will largely pre- 

 vent the trouble. 



PROVIDENCE. 



The Market. 



Business, which showed the results of 

 the commencement of Lent, picked up 

 last week in an astonishing manner and 

 everyone was busy. There were few 

 public or social functions, yet the de- 

 mand for cut flowers of all kinds was 

 far in excess of the preceding week. 

 Funeral work holds good. Bulb stock 

 has shown a vast improvement during 

 the week, and carnations, roses and vio- 

 lets are plentiful. The violets are be- 

 coming almost a glut on the market, so 

 much so that the annual cutting by de- 

 partment stores and druggists has set 

 in. Saturday the price with the cutters 

 was 15 cents for bunches of twenty-live, 

 both single and double. The florists 

 maintain an even price of 25 to '35 cents 

 for bunches of twenty-five.

The annual banquet of the Ehode 

 Island Horticultural Society was held on 

 the evening of February 16, in the 

 parlors of the Mathewson Street Audi- 

 torium, at which more than 150 were in 

 attendance. In the gathering were 

 guests from leading horticultural organ- 

 izations in near-by cities, including a 

 delegation of eight, headed by President 

 James Eobertson, from the Newport 

 Horticultural Society. One of the pleas- 

 ing events of the evening was the at- 

 tendance of the secretary, Charles "W. 

 Smith, for the first time since about 

 Thanksgiving. 



At the business meeting that was held 

 previous to the banquet, six members 

 were elected. Joseph E. C. Farnham, 

 one of the park commissioners of Provi- 

 dence, officiated as toastmaster, being in- 

 troduced by the president, E. H. Burlin- 

 game. Mr. Farnham 's ready wit and 

 stream of humorous anecdotes kept the 

 gathering in excellent humor. The
