 hibit was made by Mr. A. E. Cole, a 

 young gardener at Grimsby, who is 

 always on the mar et with fine stock

 delightful music ; a violin solo was ren- 

 dered by Miss Taylor, and a violin duet

We show a glimpse of Mr. Cole's exhibit 

 which occupied the whole of one side of 

 the hall Fig. 1139. Mr. M. Pettit, of 

 Winona, an ex-president of our associa- 

 tion, was chairman, and a paper on 

 Chrysanthemums was read by the presi- 



choice chrysanthemums, each plant 

 grown and transplanted into a five inch 

 pot. Three hundred and fifty potted 

 plants were thus distributed, and with 

 them we hope for a fine chrysanthemum 

 show next November.
