CRESS. 
The Cultivation of Cress Sow Plain Cress once a week all the Summer in shallow boxes, filled up about three parts of the way with nice rich soil ; when this is 
pressed down and watered, sow the seed an hour afterwards rather thickly over it, and merely press it into the soil. Cover with a double sheet of paper from 
o to 4 p.m. during the Summer, and sprinkle every evening. When the young seedlings reach an inch above the level of the top of the box they may be cut off 
with a sharp knife, and washed before being sent to table. American Cress should be sown the end of August to stand the Winter. Watercress may be 
successfully grown from seed, if sown in a shady border, and well watered. {See also Carters’ Practical Gardener, price is ., post free is. 3d.)

A GOLD MEDAL AWARD. 
We have the pleasure to announce that at the Shrewsbury Horticultural Society— the largest annual gathering 
of Horticulturists and high-class products in the country— our House was awarded this special and important honour 
for a unique exhibit of Vegetables and Flowers, of which the Photograph we give illustrates but a very poor idea. 
It was certainly the greatest attraction in the show, and we are glad to be able to illustrate it in these pages.
