given to gladioli one-tenth of the land is 

 devoted to seedlings, and for six years he 

 has been selecting new types until now he 

 has many that compare favorably with 

 anything before the public. In these are 

 a pure white, a rich yellow, floriferous 

 and ten perfect flowers in bloom at one 

 time on a single spike; an intense scarlet, 

 and several beautifully variegated ones, 

 also a pink that may fairly be termed a 

 rival of America and which he is advised 

 to call the Dr. Cook, or the North Pole, 

 because it is so near the top in quality. 

 The gladioli are about ready for harvest- 

 ing and the dry season has been no dis- 

 advantage to their growth, cultivation 

 being thorough and constant. Fifteen 

 varieties of lilies are grown here; one im- 

 mense field of L. tigrinum splendens mak- 

 ing a magnificent show from the train 

 windows, covering a full half acre. 



Next season a considerable increase in 

 the acreage will be made. The demand 

 this fall is already developing beyond 

 that of other seasons at this date and Mr. 

 Miller says the outlook is most promising. 

 He is an extensive exhibitor at the large 

 horticultural fairs of Long Island and 

 his Giant Neapolitan squash seed is al- 

 ready contracted for. On his trial 

 grounds are seventy-five varieties of 

 pumpkins and squash, every variety 

 known to the trade. He also grows fruit 

 of many kinds, including an orchard of 

 1,000 peach trees. One and a half miles 

 west of Wading River is the Long Island 

 Experimental Station.

PROVIDENCE, R. L 



The Market. 



Business has kept up remarkably well 

 for the season, and the dealers are much 

 encouraged at the outlook for the next 

 season. There has been an unusual 

 amount of social work, which has been 

 accelerated by theatrical presentations 

 and other features. September 3 the de- 

 mand commenced for white sweet peas 

 and white asters, and on Saturday this 

 had increased to such an extent that 

 prices at wholesale stiffened consider- 

 ably. This was on account of the visit 

 of the Italian warship Etruria, for a 

 five-day stay. Not only were corsage 

 bouquets much in demand, but also 

 potted plants and table work for social 

 functions in connection with the visit. 

 Funeral work has also been much on the 

 increase, and the tendency has been for 

 more expensive pieces than usual at this 

 time of the year. 



Variottt Notes. 



.lames Manning, florist for the Ap- 

 ponaug Co., at Apponaug, has a sun- 

 flower plant with thirty-seven blossoms, 

 some of which are of huge dimensions, 

 and there are more than forty blooms 

 nearly, ready to blossom out, making a 

 total of about eighty blooms. 



Mr. and Mrs. Laurence Hay, of East 

 Providence, who have been enjoying a 

 respite with friends at East Greenwich, 

 have returned to their home. 



Alex H. Johnson, city forester, was 

 authorized to establish a nursery at 

 Roger Williams park for providing the 

 city with needed shade trees, at an esti- 

 mated expense of not exceeding $500. 



Hoflfman had the decoration for the 

 P^ngland-Merry wedding at Pawtucket, 

 September 1. 



The retail price of all grades of coal 

 advanced 25 cents a ton in this city Sep- 

 tember 1.
