MODERN PLUMBING 
To get a more complete idea 
of the possibilities of bathroom 
equipment send for our book¬ 
let “Modern Plumbing”. It 
gives description and prices of 
the latest types of fixtures in 
both Imperial Solid Porcelain, 
Vitreous Ware and Porcelain 
Enameled Iron. 24 illustra¬ 
tions show complete model 
bathrooms ranging in price 
from $74 to $ 3000 . Sent on 
receipt of 4 cents to cover 
Before Imperial Solid Porcelain 
bath tubs were successfully made, 
enameled iron was the generally ac¬ 
cepted material. We make a com¬ 
plete line in both Imperial Solid 
Porcelain and Enameled Iron. For 
the better class of work, however, 
Imperial Solid Porcelain is undeni¬ 
ably superior for beauty, cleanliness 
and durability. Its hard, snow- 
white surface, fired in the kiln at a 
heat which would fuse metal, can 
be kept spotless by simply wiping 
with a cloth or sponge.

Plants, flowers, fruits or vegetables 
entered for competition must be of more 
than ordinary standard and good quality 
to be entitled to consideration by the 
judges. 
Three entries by different exhibitors 
shall constitute a class, and be entitled to 
an award of a first, or a single special 
prize. 
First, second and third prizes shall 
be awarded only when a class contains 
five or more entries. 
Honorable mention may be awarded 
any unclassified exhibit of special merit 
or note. 
A special prize may be awarded for 
the best general exhibit of flowers and 
vegetables in any show or exhibit. 
Each entry must be properly labeled 
with its name and class, and registered 
numbered tags for such labeling will be 
furnished the members upon application 
to the Secretary. 
Judges may be professionals who may 
be asked to serve, or they may be a com¬ 
mittee of members appointed by the 
President or elected by the Club. If the 
latter, they must not present an entry in 
the competitions which they are to judge. 
A popular judgment shall be passed 
upon every competition, in addition to 
the judgment of award, by means of a 
general vote. The results of each ballot 
shall be announced and recorded, and a 
prize to be called the Club Prize shall be 
awarded at the end of the season to the 
member making the highest total score. 
A prize to be called the Grand Prize 
shall be awarded at the end of the year 
to the member winning the most points 
on the judges’ awards, these points being 
reckoned as follows: First prizes to 
count 10 points; 2d prizes to count 7 
points; 3d prizes to count 4 points; hon¬ 
orable mentions to count 2 points, and 
special awards to count 1 point. 
Five competitions apart from the ex¬ 
hibitions and shows are offered, as fol¬ 
lows : 
Vegetable gardens; perennials raised 
from seed; fruits; continuous and most 
abundant garden display of flowers, all 
kinds; children’s gardens (children of 
members only to compete). 
The judges will visit all gardens in the 
competiton once each month, as an¬ 
nounced in the program, and each en¬ 
trant will receive a score card upon 
which the number of points scored at 
each visit will be marked, to be retained 
by them until the final showing, when 
the totals will be reckoned and the awards 
made accordingly. 
Fruits are to be submitted for judging
