BOSTON. 



All the halls were well filled with ex- 

 hibits for the Boston fall show, which 

 proved successful, both as regards ex- 

 hibits and attendance. The arrange- 

 ment throughout was excellent. Chrysan- 

 themums are less a feature than some 

 years ago, as interest has somewhat 

 waned, the reaction to smaller blooms 

 and medium sized plants being perhaps 

 more pronounced in Massachusetts than 

 in any other state. Boston holds about 

 a dozen large exhibitions each year, and 

 for this reason the autumn show is dif- 

 ferent from that in other cities, which 

 only hold a single show a year. Boston 

 gives a less varied schedule than cities 

 which center their activities in one ex- 

 hibition, but the quality of the exhibi- 

 tions is always good. 



Specimen plants are less numerous than 

 a decade ago, but some excellent ones 



were forthcoming on this occasion. W. A. 

 Riggs had four superb specimens, which 

 took first prize. He also secured a silver 

 medal for the best plant in the show and 

 the C. S. A. trophy for the most meri 

 torious exhibit of chrysanthemums. His 

 varieties were : Mrs. Tranter, L. Boehmer 

 Mrs. E. H. Pearson and Mayor Weaver' 

 M. F. Plant, T. W. Head superintendent, 

 was a good second, and Dr. C. G. Weld, 

 W. C. Bust gardener, third. The last 

 named secured a bronze medal for a plant 

 trained in arm-chair shape. Thomffe E. 

 Proctor, James Marlborough gardlmer, 

 had fine specimens of the single varieties, 

 . Mrs. E. A. Isaacs and Helen Totty. 



For twenty-five commercially grown 

 specimens, W. H. Elliott captured first 

 with some fine bushy plants; J. S. Bailey, 

 W. McGillivray gardener, second. W. H. 

 Elliott was also first for twelve plants of 

 single flowering varieties. There was a 

 good entry for six plants grown to six 

 stems each; Mrs. Lester Leland, Erie 

 Wetterlow gardener, was first and sec- 

 ond; Mrs. A. W. Blake, J. L. Smith gar- 

 dener, third. E. MacMulkin had the best 

 pair of kentias; W. Whitman, M. Sulli- 

 van gardener, second; E. MacMulkin, 

 third. For pair of arecas, W. Whitman 

 took first. 



E. MacMulkin had the best 300-foot 

 group of foliage and flowering plants; 

 Mrs. J. L. Gardner, W. Thatcher gar- 

 dener, second. For the group of orchids 

 and foliage plants, Wheeler & Co. led 

 with a tasteful arrangement; E. Mac- 

 Mulkin, second. 



For twenty-five cut blooms first place 

 was taken by M. F. Plant, with an even 

 lot of large, well finished flowers. His 

 varieties were Mrs. N. Davis, O. H. Kahn^ 

 Lady Hopetown, Mrs. J. L, Thorn, O. H. 

 Broomhead, Beatrice May, Mrs. P. 

 Pierce, W. Duckham, Cheltoni, Mrs. W. 

 Duckham, Merza, Reginald Vallis, Leslie 

 Morrison, Mrs. H. Barnes, Yellow Miller, 

 President Viger, W. M. Moir, Clara 

 Wells, Mrs. J. C. Neil, Frank Payne, Mrs. 

 Felton, Mrs. H. Partridge, Brigbthorst, 

 Glenview, F. S. Vallis and Ben Wells. 

 William Swan was a good second and 



E. D. Jordan, W. Abraham gardener^ 

 third. 



For six vases ten distinct blooms, Win- 

 throp Ames, Daniel Whyte gardener, had 

 the field to himself. Mrs. Lester Leland 

 had the only entry of twelve incurved. 

 For twelve Japanese, Thomas Howden 

 led with a heavy lot of blooms; E. D. 

 Jordan, second; M. F. Plant, third. For 

 twelve Japanese incurved, M. F. Plant 

 was first and Thomas Howden, second. 

 Mrs. Lester Leland had the best twelve 

 reflexed, showing fine blooms of Mrs. 



F. S. Vallis, W. A. Etherington, Reginald
