WORCESTERSHIRE. 



Evesham Horticultural Society. — Oct. 13. 1831. The show of georginas and 

 other autumnal flowers was larger and more splendid than we recollect having witnessed at this 

 time of the year, since the establishment of the Society. The autumnal fruits of everv description 

 were so abundant, that the space on the tables was insufficient to contain them, and forms were 

 obliged to be set out on each side of the room, as well as on each side of the centre table, for their 

 display. After the list of prizes that had been awarded was read, the president, Edward Rudge, 

 Esq., read a paper of Mr. Charles's of Harrington Mill, on his method of cultivating the straw, 

 berry and l)roccoli plants, to whom, for several years past, prizes had been awarded for the largest 

 and best-flavoured strawberries, produced by his mode of manuring the plants, and dressing them 

 with malt dust, as described at large in his communication to the Society. The following were
