PROSPECT FOR A VERY GOOD SEASON.— ROSES COMING ON NICELY.—A PRETTY AND INEXPENSIVE DECORATION. Signs of promise are everywhere visible. The fall flowers, dahlias and cosmos, are in great profusion, for there has been no frost. Roses are coming in for the first crop on the new plants and are very good. Brides are better than Brides- maids. Golden Gate, which is being grown more largely this season, is very good and with its delightful fragrance, as well as the fact that it is still a nov- elty, promises to be a favorite.

There is to be a chrysanthemum night, when these fljwers will be needed in profusion.

The relreshment table was deco- rated with yellow ribbon bows and in the center was a graceful basket of golden rod. Yellow roses in vases added to the effect. M. C. Dorr is. Mebrill, Wis.—N.
