The Weekly Florists' Review* 



NOVX&IBEB 23. 1911. 



PEOVIDENCE. 



The Market. 



Business generally is considered oflf, 

 but a majority of the florists report fair 

 trade, mainly because of the number of 

 coming-out functions and fall wed- 

 dings. Providence has for several years 

 been growing in the importance of its 

 florists' business at this period, when 

 the chrysanthemum is queen. But the 

 lovers of this flower have not yet come 

 to the realization that to get a big 

 flower one must expect to pay a big 

 price — $4 a dozen retail is the limit, 

 with few purchasers at that price; $2 

 a dozen is about the extent of the popu- 

 lar pocketbook. Carnations and roses 

 are plentiful and move regularly, but 

 meet no great demand. 



Various Notes. 



Mr. Geller, of the Geller Florists' 

 Supply Co., New York, was a visitor 

 here last week. 



Thomas Kennedy, for many years 

 manager of the Buxton Greenhouses, at 

 Bridgeton, Burrillville, has opened a 

 flower store in the Ward building, Main 

 street, Pascoag. 



John Johnston, of Johnston Bros., has 

 been on a visit to New York for several 

 days. 



Miss Ella Maillous has opened a 

 flower store at 99 Main street, Woon- 

 socket. 



Louis Eeuter, of Westerly, was a 

 business visitor in Boston last week. 



Eobert Frame has commenced the 

 erection of a small greenhouse at 180 

 Gibbs street, Newport, to cost $450. 



William Doel, of the Pascoag Green- 

 houses, Broad street, Pascoag, reports 

 a good business this fall. 



Edward F. Healy has filed a suit in 

 the Superior Court against George 

 Johnson to recover damages under an 

 alleged breach of contract. Mr. Healy 

 claims that he was employed as mana- 

 ger of the forestry department January 

 1, 1911, for George Johnson & Son, at 

 a salary of $20 per week and ten per 

 cent of the net profits received from 

 forestry work. The term covered by 

 the agreement was two years. The de- 

 fendant later refused to retain the 

 plaintiff, he says, in his employ. Dam- 

 ages are laid at $2,500. W. H. M.
