PEOVIDENCE. 



The Market. 



Funeral work constitutes all there is 

 doing at present among the florists 

 hereabouts, but this has been fairly 

 active during the last week. Notwith- 

 standing the weather conditions, there 

 is a plethora of cut flowers; sweet peas 

 and roses are a drug on the market. 

 Carnations are small and the first asters 

 are making their appearance. Prices 

 are at the lowest ebb. 



The growers have been up against it 

 this season. Field stock has suffered 

 by the drought and everything is so 

 dry that fears are entertained of stock 

 being scalded when rain does come. 

 Saturday the temperature began to drop 

 and Sunday the long needed rain came. 



Various Notes. 



At the regular monthly meeting of 

 the Florists' and Gardeners' Club of 

 Rhode Island, held July 15, it was 

 voted to discontinue the meetings until 

 fall and also to abandon the outing to 

 the Agricultural College at Kingston. 



James Hockey, of Prospect street, 

 Pawtucket, is on the sick list. 



Peter S. Byrnes, of Wickford, has re- 

 cently purchased a new automobile. 



.Joseph Kopelman has about 30,000 

 fine looking young carnation plants, in- 

 cluding some of the new leaders, in 

 field at his farm at Oaklawn. 



Nathan D. Pierce, who has been con- 

 fined to his home at Norwood for a 

 number of weeks, is able to be about 

 again. 



H. Howard Pepper and family have 

 been spending a vacation at Button- 

 woods during the last fortnight. 



William McCarthy, son of the late 

 Timothy McCarthy, superintendent of 

 Swan Point cemetery, was ordained to 

 the priesthood at Belgium July 14. A 

 brother, James McCarthy, is studying 

 for holy orders. W. H. M. 



BLOOMSBUBG, FA. 



From this time on the headquarters 

 of the Dillon greenhouses will be at the 

 Fifth street houses. The office furni- 

 ture and fixtures have been removed 

 from the office building on Normal Hill 

 to the building erected a few years ago 

 on East Fifth street. 



Under the terms of the sale to the 

 Bloomsburg Normal trustees of the land 

 upon which the Normal Hill greenhouses 

 stand. May 1 of next year is the time 

 limit fixed in which the land is to be 

 cleared of the greenhouses, and it is 

 with this end in view that the work of 

 moving has been started. 



It is planned to erect one new green- 

 house, 22x200, at East Fifth street this 

 summer, and it is expected that by 

 economizing all available space in the 

 large Fifth street greenhouses, these 

 will be sufficient to accommodate pres- 

 ent needs, with additions made from 

 time to time. The work of removing 

 the greenhouses from the Normal Hill 

 land will progress by degrees.
