LA CHRYSANTHEME. 



This periodical puljlioallon, the offi- 

 cial organ of the French National 

 Chrysanthemum Society, has Just 

 reached its one hundred and first 

 number. The society was founded at 

 Lyons thirteen years ago and has made 

 extraordinary progress, due perhaps 

 in a great measure to its policy of 

 holding its annual convention and 

 show in a different town every year. 

 It now numbers 774 members, inclusive 

 of 58 affiliated societies. Unfortunately 

 its English prototype after 60 ye^rs 

 existence in the capital of the British 

 Empire, is a long way from such a 

 numerical result. The issues of Le 

 Chrysantheme are usually filled with 

 readable matter to those interested 

 in the golden flower and members liv- 

 ing at a distance have thus an oppor- 

 tunity of knowing what the society is 

 doing and get something for their 

 money besides a ticket for a show 

 which they cannot attend.
