are overabundant and accumulate every- 

 where. Lily of the valley is scarce and 

 sells readily. Sweet peas are growing 

 less plentiful every day and now the cut 

 hardly meets the demand. Decorative 

 greens, except smilax, are plentiful, es- 

 pecially pluraosus, which hitherto has 

 been short all year. Some double violets, 

 that are good considering the season, are 

 still arriving. 

 gj Various Notes. 



• A meeting of the Cincinnati Florists' 

 Society was held April 11. 



C. E. Critchell has been receiving ex- 

 cellent stock of all kinds, especially in 

 green goods, including some fine plumo- 

 sus from the south. 



Peter Weiland is quite ill with rheuma- 

 tism and left here, Tuesday, April 5, for 

 Hot Springs to recuperate. During his 

 absence P. J. Olinger is up at New Cas- 

 tle taking charge of the greenhouses. 

 Mr. Olinger reports that everything is 

 in first-class shape there. 



Last week "Wm. Murphy had on exhibi- 

 tion a vase of new seedling carnations 

 from a local grower, to test their keep- 

 ing qualities. 



E. G. Gillett has been receiving some 

 good Beauties from New Castle. 



Eay and Louis Murphy have just fin- 

 ished planting out an acre and a half of 

 Princess of Wales violets. 



McCuUough's are having some good 

 valley, which finds a ready market. 



C. C. Murphy is now gliding over the 

 roads in his new auto, an E. M. F. " 30 " 

 touring car. 



Al. Heckman, who was on the sick list, 

 is now around again. C. H. H. 



PROVIDENCE. 



The Market 



Business still holds good, although 

 prices have fallen off to a considerable 

 extent and there is a plentiful supply 

 of everything. Violets have about reached 

 their end for the season, but a good sup- 

 ply of excellent sweet peas stands ready 

 to take the place of leader. Trailing ar- 

 butus will, however, hold sway for a few 

 days, but will hardly last long enough

>.^\ It is easy to make advertising claims for 

 Ribbons, but to make Ribbons that make 

 good the claims, is hard. 



PINE TR££ RIBBONS we claim to be the best 

 made for the Florists' use. They have the Florist shades, 

 a beautiful lustor, many widths in stock at all timee, and 

 at the prices we quote these qualities, no Florist can 

 afford to be without them. These are our claims and we 

 make them good. Why not favor us with a trial order ?

to make any great impression on the 

 market. 



Already plans are being laid for out- 

 door work, and landscape gardening and 

 spraying of trees will furnish more than 

 the usual amount of work this spring. 

 There is a growing demand for both of 

 these lines. 



Various Notes, 



A petition in bankruptcy has been 

 asked for John F. Wood, the retail and 

 wholesale florist at 167 Westminster 

 street. The Pennock-Meehan Co., of 

 Philadelphia, is one of the creditors and 



was one of the signers of the application. 

 Mr. Wood made an assignment for the 

 benefit of his creditors April 6, to Charles 

 H. McKenna, an attorney, who says that 

 Mr. Wood's assets are more than $3,000 

 and that there are thirty-two creditors 

 with claims aggregating about $1,700. He 

 says that there are also claims for $1,600 

 by a former attorney and an assistant, 

 which are disputed. 



Seed dealers say that the sale of vege- 

 table seeds to date is far in excess of 

 that of any other year. 



William Tarbox, the "Dahlia King," 

 of East Greenwich, has placed orders for
