FLOWERS AND EXHIBITORS.

FLOWERS AND EXHIBITORS.
A visit to the Chrsanthemum exhibit
ton, held by the ladies of the Church
of the Good Shepherd, will prove very
interesting to the lovers of this noble
flower. the Queen of Autumn, and per-
haps almost as much so to the lovers of
good eating.
Mrs. Brown Pegram has a fine ex-
hibit of potted plants, and her Mrs
Alphus Hardy is beautiful specimen
of the white ostrich plume variety.
Mr.. Steinmetz also has a creditable
display of potted plants and there are
quite a number OF average specimens
of flowers as grown under ordinary
conditions.
Mrs. c. NJ. Busbee has large bowl
of Niveus and Cullendrear which are
much admired.
The main interest of the exhibit is
furnished by the exhibits of Mrs. V. L.
Turner and Mrs. T. II. Busbee, ladies
who live in adjoining houses on Per
son street, and each of whom declares
that the other has by far the better
display. No one cares to discuss the
comparative merits, for both exhibits
are unusually good and would attract
attention anywhere. 1t must be re-

The origin of these poems in cold

Japan. Ear from the days beginn-

into a Millado's favor.
The only plausible theory regard
ing the origin is found in the writings
of Niuyutsu, who tells that football
player was killed in a scrimmage in
Squego, and was planted with nothing
but his head sticking out of the earth.
But the football player having made
a touchdown was immortal and grew

RAISED IN THE OPEN AIR.

1t must be remembered that dur
ing the season in which the chrysan-
themum obtains it's greatest growth
and the flower buds form, there was
a drought which lasted sixty days, and
success won under these discouraglng
conditions is highly valued.

are grown in the open ground, not
single specimen being raised under
glass and they have received only the
attention of the ladies themselves and
their unskilled help, no trained gar
deners being employed.

SOME OF THE GEMS.

Perhaps the gem of Mrs. Turner S
exhibit is n vase of the pearly-whlte
blooms of Mrs. Twombley, with per
fectly formed petals, almost waxen in
texture, in-curved and of more than
average size; The Queen, beautiful
white, slightly tinged with pink; The
Niveus, a pure white, large and very
attractive. The deep red of Mrs. u.
w. ChiIds, tho exquisite yellow OF
Christobel and the pale primrose pet
ais of DR.. Cullendrear attract much
attention. Miss Georgianna Bramhili,
a very light yellow, large and beauti-
fully formed Mrs. Hood Wright, OF
exquisite purity and spotless white,
are raved over. Mrs. T.. ID. Adams
has been cut for many days and is
somewhat tousled, but still attractive.
Mrs. Frank Thompson, with her min
gled shades; Mrs. West, very large, of
an exquisite rose tinge; &C. b. Smith, a
tawny yellow, and many others in
turn claim our admiration. The vase
of Mrs. George NJ. Pullman shows a
large bright yellow flower, much re-
hexed. Pitcher and Manda has yell
low centre, with the outer petals
white, an unusual combination.
