The Market 



Trade was a trifle better last week 

 than the week before, but it is not what it 

 ought to be nor what had been expected. 

 To be sure, there has been some business, 

 but it was somewhat backwjird. Frosts 

 last week have about finished all outdoor 

 blooms and the demand for bench stock 

 will from now on be on the increase. 



Good carnations have been a trifle 

 scarce, bringing from 2 cents up at 

 wholesale. They retail at 50 to 75 cents 

 per dozen. Boses are go6d at $1 per 

 dozen up, while mums are coming into 

 full swing and retail at from $1.50 per 

 dozen up. A few violets are seen, but 

 they do not show to advantage as yet. 

 About $1 a hundred is the general retail 

 figure. ' ■ 



Qub Meeting. 



The regular monthly meeting of the 

 Florists' and Gardeners' Club of Rhode 

 Island was held at the rooms in this city 

 on the evening of October 17, with a 

 good attendance. President Charles Mac- 

 nair was in the chair and spoke encour- 

 agingly of the prospects of the club for 

 the coming winter, and urged every mem- 

 ber to be constant in attendance and to 

 endeavor to secure the presence of some 

 of the florists who are not affiliated with 

 the club. The executive committee re- 

 ported that plans were being made for a 

 series of talks on pertinent subjects at 

 the winter meetings and it was suggested 

 that a light lunch be provided at these 

 gatherings. 



Various Notes. 



William Hay has sold his range of 

 greenhouses on Dyer avenue, Cranston, 

 to an unknown party, the negotiations 

 being consummated through a broker. 

 Mr. Hay will retain the management of 

 the range, however, until spring. In the 

 meantime, Mr. Hay has placed orders for 

 the construction of two greenhouses on 

 his farm near Oaklawn and work will be 

 pushed upon them as rapidly as possible. 

 One is to be 50x400 feet, while the sec- 

 ond will be 30x150 feet. 



Miss Florence A. Willard has been 

 granted a permit to erect an addition to 

 one of her greenhouses at 279 Massa- 

 chusetts avenue. 



Thomas Curley furnished the chrysan- 

 themums used in decorating the State 

 House on the occasion of the reception 

 of the Honorary Commercial Commission- 

 ers from Japan by Governor Pothier.
