liarticularly lar<ro iminlicr of exhibits 



t'rom the coininercial j;ro\vcrs; the tlovv- 



iTS sliown, however, were of excellent 



■ juality; Theie were no stajiinj;s Thnrs- 



iay. Friday was .sweet pea day, when 



.■oniMHTcial growers also made a jioor 



diowiiifjf. The \V. .\tlee l^nrpee Co.. 



I'hiladcdpliia, had .a (|nite creditalde ex- 



hi))it entered in the class co\c)-in<i the 



disjday arraiijjed for effect ami easily 



wonthe first prize*. In manv classes no 



entries were made. 



Keen comjiet it ion was e\ idcnl in the 

 >(M-ond lii^r contest for supremacy in the 

 class for :i display of cut roses co\ flints 

 100 s([uare f(>et. Frank K. I'ierson, 

 Tarrytown, X. Y., put up his sr<-()nd 

 :;raud exliildt, in itself no small task, 

 sinee nothiiiu' hut the tinest llowei's, 

 produced from two pincdies, would lie 

 ^uitalili' for st;ij;injj; in this idass, where 

 the stock is judged abnost to the weijjh- 

 inj^ ]ioint, hut th(> first lumurs went to 

 ,t newcomer in the exhihition field, the 

 Muckhaml'iei'son < 'o., .M.-olison, X. .1. 

 The nianaf^ement of the show is to he 

 'Oiitriat ulated upon hcinjr aide to secure 

 ;i filling of two such classes within a 

 diiy or two of e;i<di other, especially 

 when, without tliem, there would have 

 h(>en a iioticeahle thinness in the lose 

 s(H'tion. In the opinion of the ])ul)lic, a 

 \ie\v of these exhihits alone was wortli 

 1 he price of ailmission.

 was o<(od ;inil the committee has no 

 ."inxietv in re^jird to the imtcoine tiu.-in
