PROVIDENCE. 



The Market. 



Business during the last week has 

 been seasonably good, but a shortage in 

 roses and carnations has somewhat af- 

 fected the general conditions. Bulbous 

 stock has been plentiful and furnished 

 a sufficient amount of flowers for 

 ordinary purposes. In consequence of 

 the shortage the prices on roses and 

 carnations have kept above the normal, 

 the former bringing from .'? to 12i/^ 

 cents at wholesale, while the latter 

 have ranged from 2 to 4 cents. The 

 long spell of dull, cloudy weather is re- 

 sponsible for the shortage. Funeral 

 work continues brisk, and a few small 

 weddings, receptions, dinners and the 

 like help to piece out. 



Various Notes. 



William Hooper, assistant gardener 

 for the last ten months at Marlemont, 

 Newport, is leaving for Lenox, Mass., 

 to resume the care of the large con- 

 servatories at Belle Fontaine gardens. 



Michael Walsh has tendered his res- 

 ignation as rose grower for the Burke
