This is literally true, one specimen 

 chrysanthemum plant being heralded as 

 possessing no less than 150 blooms. 

 There are finely shajjed chrysanthemums 

 and big specimens and little pompons 

 and a lovely fern decoration. Most in- 

 teresting of all was the exhibit of apples 

 — good fruit from a reclaimed orchard 

 near Media, which had expert care since 

 March. So much accomplished in six 

 months, what will another show? 



Various Notes. 



Professor J. G. Sanders, of the state 

 agricultural department, has written 

 from Harrisburg to growers in this sec- 

 tion, warning them that the Japanese 

 beetle has appeared in Pennsylvania 

 and asking them to check its spread. 



It is estimated that decreased pro- 

 duction is due, in part, to decreased 

 labor. A place which formerly employed 

 twelve men who worked sixty hours a 

 week each, or 720 hours in all, now em- 

 ploys nine men who work fifty hours a 

 week, or 450 hours in all; 270 hours less 

 is done each week in this place now. 



George Burton has two houses of 

 Cypripedium insigne just coming into 

 bloom. 



The soft coal market is easier and 

 now is the time to see about supplies. 



Mrs. F. E. Austin, wife of a former 

 president of the American Dahlia Soci- 

 ety, died last week. The funeral was 

 held from her home, at Tuckerton, N. J., 

 November 15. 



J. J. Habcrmchl 's Sons will decorate 

 the Bellevuo-Stratford ballroom for the 

 first ball of the season, November 24, the 

 evening before Thanksgiving. 



The place of Mrs. Sarah I. Smith, at 

 Secane, Pa., which was leased by Bis- 

 sett Bros., will probably be offered for 

 sale. 



M. J. Callahan reports activity in 

 mums and cyclamens. Mr. Callahan has 

 had many funeral orders. 



The property of the Edgeplain Floral 

 Co. was offered at sheriff's sale in 

 Doylestown, November 12. The pur- 

 chaser was the Lord & Burnham Co. and 

 the sum paid was $40,000. 



J. M. Deutscher announces the arrival 

 of fine double violets at the Philadelphia 

 Wholesale Florists' Exchange.
