University Chrysanthemum Show. 



In spite of a cold rain and a driving 

 wind, 2,500 people ventured out Sunday 

 afternoon, November 15, to see the 

 chrysanthemum show, which was held 

 in the floricultural greenhouses of the 

 University of Illinois. The gorgeous 

 display of single, pompon and large- 

 flowering chrysanthemums, which occu- 

 pied one house 30x100 feet, attracted 

 the most attention. The commercial 

 exhibition and specimen plants were 

 staged in an adjoining house, and these, 

 with the different varieties of orchid- 

 flowering sweet peas, received their 

 share of admiration and attention. 



The palm, fern, rose and carnation 

 houses were also open to the public. 

 The rose section is making a wonderful 

 showing this year. Of the different 

 commercial varieties grown, Hoosier 

 Beauty, plants of which were presented 

 to the university by F. Dorner & Sons 

 Co., of La Fayette, Ind., has out-topped 

 any other rose on exhibition. 



The chrysanthemum show is an an- 

 nual affair at the university, but this 

 year the show has proved a greater 

 success than ever before. 



Floricultural Club Beception. 



Friday evening, November 13, the 

 Floricultural Club gave a reception to 

 the members of the faculty of the Uni- 

 versity of Illinois at the floricultural 

 greenhouse, and about 400 members 

 turned out. There were also present 

 some out-of-town florists, among whom 

 were: Mr. and Mrs. Smith, of Danville, 

 111.; Miss Emily Dorner, of La Fayette, 

 Ind.; Mr. and Mrs. W. N. Rudd and 

 Miss Rudd, of Morgan Park, 111. The 

 greenhouses were open in connection 

 with the reception and gave those 

 present an opportunity to see the dis- 

 play of chrysanthemums and other flow- 

 ers under artificial light. A. G. H.
