The Market. 



There is a good market for flowers, 

 Avith fairly good prices. Carnations are 

 in good demand; 50 cents and 60 cents 

 per dozen, retail, is the general price. 

 Koses are of good quality. These retail 

 at $1.50 per dozen; sweet peas at $1 per 

 hundred blooms; lilies at $2 per dozen; 

 snapdragons at 75 cents and $1 per 

 dozen. A few tulips are seen; these sell 

 at 60 cents per dozen, retail. Daffodils 

 are about all gone. Funeral work is 

 plentiful, using immense lots of stock. 

 Pansies sell well. 



Geraniums are being called for now; 

 they retail for 12 cents and 15 cents 

 «ach, in Sy^-inch and 4-inch pots. There 

 are large quantities, also, of other bed- 

 ding stock. Lilac will be about all gone 

 by Memorial day, as well as nearly all 

 outdoor tulips. Some of the florists have 

 •commenced to fill their cemetery vases 

 and urns. 



The weather during the last week has 

 been cloudy, and, judging from reports, 

 <'arnation3 will be scarce for Memorial 

 day. Greens are scarce just now. Snow- 

 balls will probably be in bloom for Deco- 

 ration day. 



Various Notes. 



Wm. P. Peirce had some good funeral 

 orders last week. Julius Rosetzsky, his 

 ■manager, was in Boston last week, as a 

 -witness in a case heard by the governor's 

 council, as also was J. H. Cleary, who 

 -was one of the most important witnesses 

 in the case. Mr. Cleary is showing some 

 new kind of a flower, which will keep two 

 or three months after being prepared. 



Peter Murray has a big batch of for- 

 get-me-nots in three different colors, 

 which find a ready sale. 



S. S. Peckham and Peckliam Bros., of 

 Little Compton, R. I., have an enormous 

 number of geraniums and bedding plants 

 ready for Memorial day. They report a 

 big call for them. 



H. Y. Sowle will have plenty of gera- 

 niums and lilies for Memorial day. 



R. H. Woodbouse will be strong on 

 geraniums and vincas for Memorial day. 



:M. B. Sylvia reports a good business 

 in shrubs, trees and general nursery stock.
