The Florists^ Review 



JUNI 30, 1921 



flowers lacked entirely the artistic ef- 

 fect seen at many previous shows. 



W. C. Bust, gardener to Mrs. C. G. 

 Weld, was first for six pans of achi- 

 menes. Henry Stewart had the best 

 sweet Williams and also showed Jap- 

 anese iris and other flowers. Faulkner 

 Farm took first for twenty-five varieties 

 of hardy herbaceous plants, also receiv- 

 ing a silver medal for the same. Hill- 

 crest Gardens had an interesting dis- 

 play of annuals, perennials and rambler 

 roses. T. C. Thurlow's Sons Co. had 

 a table of fine late peonies. Specially 

 good were the varieties La Tendresse, 

 Soulange, Galathee, grandiflora, Win- 

 nikenni, Pierre Ducharte, E. P. Whit- 

 field and Milton Hill. 



Stra,wberries were far below the 

 average, in both quality and quantity, 

 frost and recent hot, dry weather hav- 

 ing largely spoiled the crops locally. 

 Marshall and Barrymore were the best 

 varieties shown. Wilfrid Wheeler lec- 

 tured each afternoon of the show on 

 strawberry culture before large and at- 

 tentive audiences. 



Farquhar's Annual Outing. 



The annual outing of the store and 

 nursery employees, with their wives 

 and families, of the R. & J. Farquhar 

 Co. was held at Thompson's Island, 

 Boston Harbor, June 25. The party, 

 to the number of about 150, left on the 

 steamer at City Point Landing at 8:45 

 a. m., and, on arrival, a baseball game 

 was played between the store and 

 nursery forces. The nursery team 

 overwhelmed the store men 10 to 2. 

 The winning team was composed of 

 Minster, catcher; Dixon, pitcher; Voigt, 

 first base; Leahy, second base; Boyer, 

 third base; O'Galovan, shortstop; 

 McKenzie, right field; Basher, center 

 field; Hatch, left field, and L. F. Mont- 

 gomery, captain. George Cruickshank 

 was the umpire. After the ball game 

 had been completed, all sat down to a 

 sumptuous dinner served by a noted 

 Boston caterer, to which full justice 

 was done. During dinner and at in- 

 tervals during the afternoon the Thomp- 

 son 's Island Farm and Trade School 

 boys' band of thirty pieces furnished 

 delightful music. Following dinner the 

 balance of the sporting events were 

 contested with the following results: 



lOO-yard dnsli, men — E. Wheeler, first; J. 

 Leiiliy, aeoond. 



.lO-yard d.isli, ladies — Miss Fordliam, first; Miss 

 Balliird, second. 



Tliree-legged race — Watt and Halkett, first; 

 Woodbury and Stone, second.

 first; Miss Cox, second. 



.lO-ynrd race, men over 40 years — LeQuern, 

 first; J. H. Cooper, second.

 Miss Irene Uiissell, second. 



Pipe race — .\ll)ert Scliellenberg. first. 



Running broad jump — -Lealiy. first. 



Tlirowing baseball, men — Otto Wright, 278 

 feet. 



At the completion of the sports the 

 prizes were distributed to the winners 

 by Alexander P. Dewar, manager of 

 the seed store. A number of races and 

 other sports were arranged for the boys 

 attending tlie school on the island and 

 suitable prizes given. All were keenly 

 contested. Everyone spent a most en- 

 joyable day, weather conditions being 

 perfect. The steamer left for Boston 

 at 6 p. m.; tlie port was safely reached 

 with no untoward incident to mar a day 

 of real pleasure.
