Mum Show at Schenley Park. 



The chrysanthemum show at Schen- 

 ley Park Conservatory is open, and it 

 is the best show they ever had; about 

 10,000 plants, with as good blooms as 

 you would want to see. The first Sun- 

 day, Oct. 29th, the attendance was 

 very good, although the weather was 

 rainy and chilly. The tropical house 

 is in as good shape; the house with 

 the economic plants is pretty well 

 filled and the visitors are very much 

 interested in them. In the same house 

 a nice lot of Acalypha Sanderi, from 

 12 to 24 inches high, make a great 

 show. Supt. Falconer's work is show- 

 ing up well for the few years he has 

 been here. 



Mr. Bigelow is getting plans pre- 

 pared for a building for a school of bo- 

 tany, where the pupils from any of 

 the city schools can study with ma- 

 terial right at hand in the adjoining 

 conservatory. 



Various Notes. 



The sultry weather the past week 

 brought on the chrysanthemums in 

 oversupply, although there has not 

 been as many grown about Pittsburg 

 this season as formerly. 



Mr. Chas. Koening, at Bennett, Pa., 

 one of our young and energetic flo- 

 rists, seems to have the largest stock 

 of them this year. He is still build- 

 ing houses and has now quite an area 

 of glass, covering not only mums, but 

 carnations, lots of ferns, palms and 

 bedding stock. He is forcing more 

 bulbs than any one in this neighbor- 

 hood. 



The Pittsburg Cut Flower Co. are 

 handling some nice Beauties and Kai- 

 serins this season, with the other 

 stock. They report business fair. 



F. Burki, at Bellevue, has built four 

 new houses this season and rebuilt 

 two, replacing 12-inch glass with 24- 

 inch. He has now 36 houses in all. 

 At present he is adding a 150 H. P. 

 boiler to his other two of 80 H. P. 

 each. BEAR. 



MONTREAL. 



The annual chrysanthemum show 

 of the Montreal Gardeners' and Flo- 

 rists' Club will be held in Natural His- 

 tory Hall Nov. S and 9. Admission by 

 invitation only. Further information 

 may be had by addressing Fred. Ben- 

 nett, Sec'y, 136 Peel St.
