ORCHIDS AT THE YORKSHIRE GALA. 
OrcHID exhibits at this old-established show, both competitive and non- 
competitive, well maintained the standard of previous years, and in very 
few cases have they been excelled. 
The principal class was for a table 12 feet by 5 feet, arranged for effect, 
the inclusion of cut blooms in glasses or baskets being permitted, the object 
being to produce an effective display. The first prize was awarded toa 
most effective and pleasing display put up by Messrs. J. Cypher & Sons, 
Cheltenham, which contained a wide range of decorative Orchids, such as 
Brassia verrucosa, Oncidiums, Odontoglossums, Cattleyas, Leliocattleyas, 
Miltonias, and many other species. Messrs. Mansell & Hatcher was placed 
second, with a most pleasing arrangement of plants alone, no attempt 
being made to add to its effectiveness by the addition of cut flowers. 
Renanthera Imschootiana was intermingled with white Odontoglossums, 
Cattleya Warscewiczii, C. Mossiz, lLeeliocattleyas, Miltonias, and
