The chrysanthemum show will be held 

 November 12 and 13, and the competi- 

 tion will be on the usual lines \vith spe- 

 cial features in the Board of Trade cup 

 for new variety, which was won last 

 year by Timothy Eaton, and in the prizes 

 for the children's flowers and plants. 



The decorating committee is making 

 plans to beautify the hall, and, alto- 

 gether, the prospects are bright for a 

 good exhibition. 



A visit to G. P. Eawsou's greenhouses 

 shows his large quantity of chrysanthe- 

 mums in better shape than usual. While 

 he does not attempt to grow the enor- 

 mous prize-winners of former days, he 

 finds the demand for commercial flowers 

 as great as ever. For an early white 

 nothing does so well as the Prime, which 

 makes a graceful ball of white and is a 

 good keeper. The yellow Monarch is fur- 

 nishing most of his early yellows; and 

 a bench of John K. Shaw looks about as 

 well as possible. The pets of the estab- 

 lishment just now are some new early 

 varieties which are certainly very prom- 

 ising. A pink one, of about the color 

 of Glory of Pacific, seems of much bet- 

 ter form and substance than that vari- 

 ety. A white, named Egandale, with 

 plated petals and a well-built-up center, 

 and very regular in development, prom- 

 ises to be valuable. There are two other 

 whites, quite distinct, and a very large 

 blush and white. Mr. Rawson is 

 testing most of the new carnations; 

 but it is too early to judge of their mer- 

 its. Among the several rose houses one 

 notices the Golden Gate and a house 

 of Gontier which are doing finely. 



Violets seem to be very healthy and 

 coming along better than usual this year 

 with all the growers here, so the mar- 

 ket is a little overstocked just now. 

 Carnations are in short supply yet. H. 



FOR RHYMSTERS. 



The Kansas City World has adopted 

 a novel plan to interest the people in 

 the coming exhibition in that city. It 

 offers a prize of $5.00 for the best rhyme 

 to "Chrysanthemum" and prints the fol- 

 lowing as a sample of what might be sub- 

 mitted : 



"His offer came so sudden 



It struck Samantha dumb 

 And she fell upon his shoulder 



Crushing his chrysanthemum." 



Toledo, 0.— Mrs. E. Suder has rebuilt 

 the eight houses on Cherry street and 

 has built a new house 24x100 with all 

 modern improvements in ilanhattan.
