Apples and Pears. 



Six dishes, distinct, Cooking Apples ; six dishes, distinct, Dessert 

 Apples ; six dishes, distinct, Dessert Pears, six Fruits to each dish. 

 Affiliated Societies. No two Societies were permitted to combine, and 

 each Society competing must collect all the specimens shown from 

 amongst its own members only, and not from outside. 



The Affiliated Societies Challenge Cup may be won only once in three 

 years by any one Society ; but the Winners may compete for any other prizes 

 offered in this Class. 



If the same Society which won the Challenge Cup in 191 2 again exhibits and 

 is considered by the Judges to be 1st, a smaller Silver Cup will be awarded by 

 the Council instead of the Medal offered as the 2nd Prize ; and similarly in 

 future years a winning Society must win again in the immediately following 

 year in order to establish a claim for the smaller Cup in place of the Silver-gilt 

 Knightian Medal.
