terest in the rose exhibit. One was the 

 <'ontest between a veteran and a youth 

 in the regular contest for gardener's. 

 The veteran came out ahead, but the 

 youth did well, taking one first. The 

 other was the seedlings. There were 

 two Ophelias; both showed promise. 

 One was Eobert Scott & Son's deep pink, 

 Mrs. Prentiss Nichols; the other, Ed- 

 ward Towill's cerise pink, here chris- 

 tened American Legion. Mrs. Prentiss 

 Nichols looked even better at the exhi- 

 l)ition than at home a year ago, creating 

 enthusiasm among the experts. Ameri- 

 can Legion has met with much com- 

 mendation, encouraging its aspirations 

 to a place beside American Beauty. 



Taken all together, the Pennsylvania 

 Horticultural Society has accomplished 

 something noteworthy in putting up such 

 a good exhibition. Returning to the cen- 

 ter of the city after an absence of three 

 years, it was no small achievement to 

 till the armory with a good selec- 

 tion of well grown stock. To measure 

 tlie sliow on prewar standards is absurd. 

 We have given our country our best ; we 

 tiavc given our men and our coal and our 

 money. Now we are starting afresh. 

 Tlie show was a good sliow; next year 

 we shall have a better. 



Protests False Reports. 



An open letter to the secretary: 

 To Mr. David Rnst, 



Serretary PenngylTunia Horticultural Socictj 

 *!06 Finanop building, 

 I'liilndelphia, Pn. 

 My Dear Mr. Hust: 



I was greatly pleaned willi the fxliit>ition iiivpn 

 t>y the society last week. T'nder postwar condi- 

 tions, it was most creditable. 



I have one criticism to mnke — that tlie descrip- 

 tions of the show published in tlie daily press 

 :ire injurious to horticulture. "A chrysanthemum 

 plant with 1,000 blooms," "Two thousand Ameri- 

 <an Reauties," and bo on, were the expressions 

 used. Tbesp statements do harm. They are 

 unworthy of our profession. Occasionally they 

 are the result of overentbusiasm or they may 

 be errors. Generally, they are preventable. 



Should you agree with me in this matter 1 

 feel sure that you will take measim's to dis 

 •ouraKc inaccurate reporting. 



With kindest regards. 



I am very truly yours.
