of 50 degrees will answer, only six re- 

 turns will be required. To provide 

 heat for the above radiation, the boiler 

 should vary from 4,000 to 5,000 square 

 feet, according to the temperature de- 

 sired. 



PROVIDENCE. 



The Market. 



The last three days of the week just 

 closed were about as busy as the florists 

 in this city and vicinity have experi- 

 enced for a long time, the demand, espe- 

 cially for potted plants, being unusually 

 large. The prices were good and the 

 quality of the stock was above the av- 

 erage. Cut flowers were also in demand, 

 but a considerable increase in price 

 somewhat checked the sales. Funeral 

 work continues brisk and the orders for 

 delivery on May 30 and 31, for Memo- 

 rial day, exceed those of any previous 

 year. 



Various Notes. 



Paul de Nave, vice-president of the 

 Fall River Florists' and Gardeners' As- 

 sociation, was a recent visitor in this 

 city. He reports a fine crop of Cattleya 

 Mossise, Gaskelliana and gigas. 



John McNulty, a driver for George 

 Johnson & Son, was painfully injured 

 May 22 while driving his horse on 

 Wickenden street. The horse stumbled 

 and threw Mr. McNulty from his seat. 

 He received a scalp wound a couple of 

 inches long, in which several stitches 

 were taken. 



S. J. Eeuter & Son, of Westerly, are 

 shipping some excellent Beacon, Pink 

 Delight and Afterglow carnations to the 

 Boston market. 



Newport, South Kingstown and Bris- 

 tol will make independent attacks on 

 the tree pests which infest these dis- 

 tricts, even though the State Board of 

 Agriculture can do nothing to assist 

 them financially, inasmuch as the appro- 

 priation for that work has been vetoed 

 by the governor. 



Alfred H. Leonard, head bookkeeper 

 for W. E. Barrett & Co., has the sym- 

 pathy of a large circle of acquaintances 

 in the recent death of his father. 



James Hackins, of Central Falls, is 

 contemplating a trip to Europe in the 

 fall. 



J. Sullivan, formerly with the West- 

 minster Greenhouses, in this city, was a 

 recent visitor here. He is now conduct- 

 ing a large flower store at Springfield, 

 Mass.

are all satisfied with the results it has given, and many 

 duplicate orders is the proof. This Valve ^vlll main- 

 tain a steady pressure on the low side, no matter 

 how the initial pressure fluctuates. By carrylntr <0 or 50 

 pounds pressure on the boiler and setting the valve to 

 carry 5 or 10 pounds on the line, you always have a 

 reserve to fall back on in rase of a sudden drop in tern-" 

 perature. Our ne^ oatalosue Is Just out and if 

 you contemplate making any cuanges you had better 

 get one— it is yours for the asking.
