Class F— Best Special Plant. Any plant cared for by the exhibitor 
may be entered. The plant may be a geranium raised from a 
cutting, an aster from seed, a fern from a runner— it matters not 
so long as the work is yours. The plant stands no chance of prize 
winning if it is not in good condition, clean, properly potted, and 
free from insect pests. First prize, a silver medal; second 
prize, a bronze medal; third prize, a certificate of honorable 
mention. 
Class G — Best Bunch of Flowers. Judged on perfection of the 
flowers and taste in arrangement. First prize in this class is a 
silver medal; second prize, a bronze medal; third prize, a cer- 
tificate of honorable mention. 
Class H — Individual Garden Display. The greatest variety of 
flowers or vegetables raised by one child constitutes this display. 
Here is an opportunity to show some originality and taste in the 
way you put together and arrange your own exhibit. Let us have 
more exhibits in this class this year. First prize, a silver prize; 
second prize, a bronze medal; third prize, a certificate of hon- 
able mention. 
Class /—Weed Display. This weed exhibit may be one of either 
fresh or pressed specimens. No exhibit can take a prize unless 
the specimens are carefully and correctly named. If you go away 
to the country in the summer you will have a good opportunity to 
make a large collection of weeds and wild flowers for the exhibit. 
First prize is a silver medal; second prize, a bronze medal; and 
certificates of honorable mention will be awarded to those taking 
third places. 
Class /—Wild Flowers. Similar to Class I. First prize, a silver 
medal; second prize, a bronze medal; third prize, certificates of 
honorable mention.

Stamps will be presented to the boy having the best back yard 
garden in Brooklyn. $10.00 in War Savings Stamps will be given
