Gurney Hill came in person from Eich-f 

 mond, Ind., with a trunkful of exhibits. 

 These included fine vases of Rose 

 ■Queen, that attracted everyone by its 

 rich color; Sunburst and Mrs. Aaron 

 Ward, both splendidly grown. Bonfire,

 the same flowers, violets and pink 

 snapdragon. The effect was charming.
