ROCHESTER, N. H. 



At the annual fair held in the beauti- 

 ful Cold Spring park, there was, as 

 usual, an attractive floral display. It is 

 doubtful if any other fair has a more 

 picturesque and pretty floral court, a 

 large flower bed with growing plants and 

 a fountain playing in the center, giving 

 the whole a cool and inviting appearance. 

 Frank 1. Shorey made an efficient 

 superintendent of this department. 



The plants and flowers are here much 

 better arranged than at the average cat- 

 tle show, and the committee and ener- 

 getic assistant secretary, F. M. Hayes, 

 have every reason to feel proud of their 

 department. Killing frosts through New 

 Hampshire prior to the show somewhat 

 reduced the cut flower exhibits, but all 

 the tables were well filled. Fine displays 

 of pot plants were made by E. A. Corson, 

 East Rochester; Chalmers Conservatories 

 and M. K. Foisom in the professional 

 class. These same exhibitors had a nice 

 lot of floral designs, those from E. A. 

 Corson being equal to those seen in the 

 large cities. J. K. Alexander, East 

 Bridgewater, Mass., was the largest 

 dahlia exhibitor, capturing all the first 

 prizes. 



Mrs. Ellen Trask Roberts, of Alton, N. 

 H., had one of the finest displays of 

 sweet peas we have seen this season, in 

 some thirty varieties. There were many 

 fine exhibits of pot plants and cut flow- 

 ers from amateurs, and next year the 

 indications are for more exhibitors from 

 a distance than ever.

Joseph Thorpe, of Fisher street, cele- 

 brated his golden wedding a few days 

 ago. Mr. Thorpe is a keen horticulturist 

 and won a silver medal for twenty-five 

 cactus dahlias at the late New England 

 dahlia show in Boston. He is a success- 

 ful market grower of vegetables, but 

 takes a great pride in flowers. C. 



DiGHTON, Mass. — George H. Walker's 

 dahlias are exceptionally fine this 

 season. He has won premiums at the 

 Boston, Newport, New Bedford and 

 other shows and reports a better demand 

 than ever for tubers. 



Lafayette, Colo. — George Schroeder 

 has charge of the growing department 

 of the Schroeder-Son Nursery Co. and is 

 one of the principal stockholders in the 

 organization. His father and sister have 

 retired from the business.
