PEOVIDENCE, R. I. 



The Market. 



The opening of two theaters, several 

 large funerals, a few weddings and an 

 occasional small social function con- 

 tributed to the flower business here 

 last week. Cooler weather had a ten- 

 dency to accelerate trade, which, being 

 well distributed, caused a generally 

 good feeling. Chrysanthemums are 

 daily coming better,' both in quality 

 and quantity, while carnations are de- 

 cidedly better in quality and meeting 

 with an increasing demand, although 

 the mums have the call for medium- 

 priced blooms. Roses are in good sup- 

 ply and move well. 



Various Notes. 



Joseph Morris, head gardener at the 

 Watch House estate, Little Compton, 

 has returned to Boston for the winter.
