abundance that they dominate the e.xhibi- , 

 tion of several groups of flowers in the 

 larger tent, but they are pleasingly modi- 

 fled by the delicate hues wrought into the 

 wealth of bloom and foliage. Darge urns 

 and bird baths along the edges of Hie 

 flower banks are used to advantage. 



In the large tent there are six exhibits. 

 Mrs. Ernest B. Dane has a mound of flow- 

 ers just inside the tent opening, built up 

 with choice collections from the green- 

 houses— spireas, campanulas ( or bell flow- 

 ers, godetlas, hydrangeas, antirrhinum, 

 fuchsias calceolaias, lilies, daiisies and 

 numerous other kinds of spring flowers. 

 Back of this is another large display con- 

 tributed by the C. G. Weld estate. There i 

 are in this collection some of the varieties I 

 that are shown by Mrs. Dane but the 

 prominent clusters seem to be the caleeo- 

 lareas, the handsome blue lobelias, glox- 

 inias, some ra«re geraniums, the blushing 

 bride, balsam azalea, the Weld hybrid 

 snapdragons, and godetias. 



Across at the other end of the tent 

 there is a wide bank predominating in mar- 

 guerites and standard heliotropes, with rarj 

 orchids, pelargoniums, and epircas for t ' 

 blending of colors. Directly in front la a 

 circular fountain overspread with roses and 

 gypsophilas which most people know as 

 baby's breath. This has been contributed 

 by Mrs. Richard M. Saltonetall. .Between 

 this and the Dane section there is a square 

 filled ihigh in air by Edwin S. Webster.
