IVit W\OViUQ , QRLXtL BOViVtMkRO, CH\C^GO , ^\t\N VROU "WAt LKS"^ , San Francisco.—At the chrysanthe- mum show, John H. Sievers bore off first honors, he making a very handsome and large display of both plants and cut flowers. The others were divided be- tween the exibits from San Mateo and Sau Rafael. The show was a success financially as well as artistically. Syracuse, N. Y.—At the chrysanthe- mum show held Nov. 9, first prize for best exhibit was awarded to Theo. Dissel. Handsome displays of chrysanthemums and decorative plants were made by Gen. D. P. Wood, Hamilton S. White, A. H. Davis, Yates Castle, P. R. Ouinlan &Co., F. C. Dillaye and the State asylum. E D. Wheadon of Skaneatles acted as judge. Providence, R. I.—The chrysanthe- mum showwas undoubtedly the finest ever given by the R. I. Hort. society. Prom- inent exhibitors were Farquhar Macrae, Geo. Johnson, James Andrews, D. W. McCoid, Robt. Johnston, and C. F. Fair- brother, E. J. Callamore, R. J. Sullivan and Johnson P>ros. The handsomest dis- play was probably that of Geo. Johnson. He exhibited 200 plants in about fifty varieties all remarkably well grown, and many of them never before shown. Hartford, Conn.—The recent chrys- anthemum show was the best ever held here, the display far exceeding expecta- tions. First prizes were awarded to Thos. Maltman, John Davie, B. Beemer, John O'Neil and Robert Patchet; second prizes to Geo. M. Atwood, Robert Patchet, B. Beemer, Wm. May and F. A. Boyle. S. W. Robbins made a magnificent display, and those of Jas. R. Pitcher, Short Hills, N. and Edwin Fewkes & Son, Newton Highlands, Mass., were grand, but were not entered for competition. Columbus, O.—The first annual chrys- anthemum show of the Columbus Hort. society was held Nov. 12. The exhibi- tion was not large, but some choice specimens were shown. Ohio State Uni-
