Eoi d'ltalie, a yellow variety grown out- 

 doors in Virginia, surpassing even Apple- 

 ton, but shown here as very small. Bea- 

 trice May was fine, but, aa usual, lacking 

 in foliage. 



Everybody was looking for the Presi- 

 dent Taft. We thought it the W. M. 

 Moir, of Totty's introduction, and Fi- 

 delity, the best bloom in the show, may 

 also be that variety, but was placed 

 rather high for proper examination. 



The following were beautifully grown 

 and bore enormous exhibition blooms: 

 Glitter, Mrs. W. Duckham, Mary Don- 

 nellan and Col. Ducrosiet, all yellows; 

 Leon Truelle, Lanona, Rose Pockett, 

 Merstham Blush, L. Eousseau, O. H. 

 Broomhead, Mrs. J. Wells and Dazzler, 

 the last the best crimson possible. In 

 the singles we noted an orange salmon 

 seedling, a cross of Rayonnante with a 

 single. 



The staging reflects the greatest credit 

 on Mr. Burns, whose courtesy and pa- 

 tience to visitors win him a host of 

 friendf.

the show will mark another step forward, 

 for interest is keen. The oflScers of the 

 club are: F. H. Kramer, president; John 

 Robinson, vice-president; W. F. Qude, 

 treasurer, and O. A. C. Oehmler, secre- 

 tary. As usual, George Cooke is man- 

 ager of the show. 



^^ Mums at Agricultural Department. 



At the greenhouses of the Agricultural 

 Department about' 240 varieties of mums 

 are on show to the public, free, for a 

 week. It struck us that too much had 

 been attempted and the wrong bud of 

 many taken. This was palpably so with 



Large quantities of stock have been 

 arriving at the commission houses, but 

 it is cleaned up fast, for business is 

 good. Carnations are still scarce; the 

 few arriving are sold almost before un- 

 packing. Roses are just about equal to 

 the demand. Chrysanthemums clean up 

 well at about the usual prices. Not many 

 of the pompon and anemone types arrive 

 at the commission houses, although these 

 newer kinds are quite popular. 



Qub Meeting. 



Considering the bad weather, there was 

 a good attendance at the meeting of the 

 Florists' Club, Monday evening, Novem- 

 ber 1. 



Immediately after calling the meeting 

 to order. President Plumb asked Vice- 

 president George E. Browne to preside, 

 which he did in a very able manner. 



Chas. Distelrath was unanimously 

 elected a member. M. Bloy, of the ex- 

 hibition committee, reported that in view 

 of the fact that mums are so late this 

 season it would not be advisable to hold
