BULBOUS PLANTS. 



The bulbous plant classes for commer- 

 cial growers were not so strong as they 

 might well have been in consideration 

 of the liberal character of the pre- 

 miums, but Anton Schultheis, of Col- 

 lege Point, should be given full credit 

 for excellent quality and an entry in 

 practically every class open to him. The 

 official list of the awards is as follows:

 and narcissus. 100 square feet — First, Anton

 on an even footing with the commer-

 pected, but the plants were fine. The
