M. H. LEVINE CO. 874 Broadway New York City ELCO BRAND OF RIBBONS. PROVIDENCE, R. I. The Market. The dark, drizzling weather that Hlirouded this section for the ten days previous to Mothers' day liad a de- teriorating efl'eet upon the quantity and <(uality of Howers offered and caused a material increase in prices. Carna- tions were especially hard hit. These have been none too plentiful for the last two weeks, being held at about $8 per hundred for tlie best varieties. But Thursday, May 5, they began to stiffen and Saturday morning went to $ and $15 ])er liundred, retailing at $;j to $4 per dozen. Various Notes. Mothers' day was more generally ob- served here this year than over before, due in a great measure to the coopera- tive advertising in the daily news- papers by several of the larger down- town florists. Not only was a series of displaj' advertisements used, but at- tractive display cards were placed in the florists' windows calling attention to the day more than a week in advance Among those wlio joined in the coijpera five advertising were Johnston Bros. T. J. Johnston & Co., William A Bowers. T. O'Connor, Smith the Florist Macnair, Burke & Burns, V. J. Bcrar ducci, Eugene McCarron, F. Macrae & Sons and Westminster Greenhouses. Willi.'im Cha])pell is somewhat im- proved in health this spring. Hugo DeWild is making repairs on the Elmwood Greenhouses. The store of T. O'Connor liad a hand- some large casket cover of roses and maidenhair for the funeral of Harry C. Arnold, superintendent of the General Fire Extinguisher Co., last week. K. J. Murphy, East Providence, re- ports a big demand for nursery stock this spring, especially Japanese bar- berry and California privet for hedges. The Qnidnick Green
