TORONTO. 



The Ontario Horticultural Association 

 held its second annual exhibition No- 

 vember 14 to 18, in Massey hall, which 

 was without exception the greatest ex- 

 hibition, from the horticulturist's stand- 

 point, yet held in Canada. The fruit and 

 vegetables were exceptionally fine, and 

 the entries large. This, together with the 

 lectures and exhibits from the exper- 



imental farms, was very instructive to 

 our fruit and vegetable growers, who 

 were present in large numbers. 



In the floral sectiocs, the competition 

 was keen and the quality very high. 

 Nearly every class necessitated very close 

 judging. Robert Flowerday, of Detroit, 

 who was judge, was heard to remark 

 that the quality in most classes was such 

 that he would like to award two or three 

 firsts in each class. 



One of the principal contests was in 

 the decorated table, with five entries. 

 This was judged by Mrs. Mortimer 

 Clark, wife (ff the lieutenant-governor, 

 and a party of twelve of the most prom- 

 inent ladies of the city. Their awards 

 were as follows: The Rosery, first, with 

 a handsomely decorated table of orchids 

 ajid valley; Dunlop, second, with Liber- 

 ty roses and valley; J. S. Simmons, 

 ; third, with Queen roses and violets. The 

 I array of cut glass and silverware in this 

 i exhibition was certainly a sight, and was 

 loaned by our best jewelers and caterers. 

 The other exhibitors were W. Jay & 

 Son, with a table of American Beauties, 

 and the T. Eaton Co., with the lovers' 

 knot made of violets. This was a nice 

 table but the piece was too large for the 

 table. 



The other class in which there was 

 keenest competition was for the standing 

 crescent wreath on a 20-inch frame. J. 

 S. Simmons was first, with a beautiful 

 piece surmounted on a basket base; the 

 base was made of Harrisii Hlies and 

 mums, and wreath of valley and roses 

 finished with swainsona VHth some 

 cattleyas to give it color. The Rosery 

 was second, W. Jay & Son third; and F. 

 Grice, fourth. 



The judge for chrysanthemums, cut, 

 plants and groups, was Geo. Robinson, 

 Montreal, and for carnations, roses and 

 mad^-up work, R. Flowerday, of Detroit. 



The principal exhibitors and premium 

 winners in the classes for chrysanthe- 

 mum and miscellaneous plants were the 

 Steele-Briggs Seed Co., A. McHardy, 

 Allan Gardens, Exhibition Park, W. Jay 

 & Son, Manton Bros., D. H. Fugder and 

 O. B. Osier. 



On cut chrysanthemums, the principal 

 exhibitors were Manton Bros., J. Gam- 

 mage & Son, Dale Estate, J. H. Dun- 

 lop. T. McHugh, R. Jennings, Steele- 

 Briggs Co., W. J. Lawrence and R. 

 Cameron. 



On roses, J. H. Dunlop was first for 

 ten yellow, white, crimson, new, ten 

 Beauty and twenty-five Beauty, second 

 for ten pink, light pink and any other 

 color; third for best fifty. Dale Estate 

 was first for ten pink, light pink and 

 any other color; second for ten yellow, 

 white, new, ten Beauty and twenty-five 

 Beauty. J. S. Simmons was first for fifty 

 any variety. Other premium winners 

 were W. J. Lawrence, Manton Bros, 

 and The Rosery.
