as now run are really of enough benefit 

 to the florists of this city to pay for 

 the time and trouble they cost. The so- 

 ciety has been obliged to depend upon 

 the same persons year after year to 

 supply the money for prizes, and it is 

 beginning to be an imposition to call 

 upon them any longer. Not only that, 

 but the club-room of the society has 

 out-grown its usefulness as a place to 

 hold exhibits. In the first place it is 

 too small, and in the second the loca- 

 tion is not right to attract the better 

 class of the flower buying public. The 

 time is now ripe either to drop the 

 shows altogether, or to hold them in a 

 more suitable place and in an up-to-date 

 manner. This appears to be the general 

 opinion of all of those most interested. 



Flower SIiow. 



Last Thursday the first flower show 

 of the fall festival was held, and W. K. 

 Partridge, who had a contract to make 

 the entire exhibit, gave the public a 

 treat which will be long remembered. 

 Great crowds viewed the exhibit all day 

 long, and they were well repaid for 

 their time. The collection of decorative 

 plants was fine, containing only the best 

 specimens, and there were many fine 

 and novel blooming plants as well. In 

 cut fiowers there was an orchid table 

 which showed some excellent blooms and 

 was much admired by the public. There 

 was a profusion of gladioli and other 

 flowers in season. One of the novel fea- 

 tures was a vase of chrysanthemums, a 

 beautiful, large, yellow variety, from the 

 E. G. Hill Ck). These were the flrst 

 mums to be seen in this city this sea- 

 son. A general decorative effect was

carried out throughout, and a pleasing 

 blending of colors and artistic grouping 

 and arrangement made the exhibit a 

 work of art. 



The next show will be held on Thurs- 

 day, September 20, and it will be de- 

 voted to table decorations, wedding bou- 

 quets, wreaths and baskets. Good prizes 

 are offered in all classes, and competi- 

 tion is open to all. It is expected that 

 several out-of-town florists will compete. 



Variottt Notes* 



E. G. Gillett and family spent a few 

 days in Springfield last week. 



It is reported that President "William 

 Murphy, who is spending a few weeks 

 on the Great Lakes, has been sick. 



The florists of College Hill who get 

 their water supply from the city have 

 been having a hard time this summer, 

 several of them being obliged to haul it 

 from quite a distance. The trouble arises 

 from the fact that the new city water- 

 works system is not completed, and the 

 old one is inadequate for the demands 

 made upon it. C. J. Ohmer.
