MANCHESTER, BfASS. 



Nortb Shore Exhibition. 



The exhibition held August 4 and 5, 

 uhder the auspices of the North Shore 

 Horticultural Society, on the Winthrop 

 estate, was a great success in number 

 of exhibits and quality of flowers, al- 

 though crowds were prevented from 

 attending because of the drenching 

 rain, which continued throughout the 

 greater part of both days. 



There were many amateur exhibitors, 

 and the displays made by gardeners on 

 local estates showed the artistic abil- 

 ity of the exhibitors. There was keen 

 competition for the society's silver 

 medal for the best dinner table decora- 

 tion, which was won by the president, 

 Mrs. W. Scott Fitz. 



Among the notable exhibits by pro- 

 fessionals was the large exhibit of 

 dahlias by J. K. Alexander, East 

 Bridgewater, Mass., which won the so- 

 ciety's first prize for the largest and 

 best exhibit. B. Hammond Tracy, of 

 Wenham, Mass., made an artistic dis- 

 play of gladioli, winning the silver 

 m^dal. Non - competitive exhibits 

 worthy of special mention were the 

 display of phlox by the Cherry Hill 

 Nurseries, West Newbury, Mass., the 

 exhibit of phlox and hardy perennials 

 by E. & J. Farquhar & Co., Boston, 

 Mass., and the display of gladioli by 

 J. K. Alexander, East Bridgewater, 

 Mass. 



A good deal of the credit for the 

 success of the show, so far as good 

 exhibits are concerned, is due the secrc:
