On Greenhouse Management, 
“Topics on Greenhouse Manage- 
ment ’’ was the subject of a very in- 
teresting paper by Kenneth Finlayson 
of Jamaica Plain before the members 
of the North Shore Horticultural 
Society, Manchester, last evening. 
There was an unusually large number 
of the members out to the meeting in 
anticipation of an instructive talk, 
and they were not in the least disap- 
pointed in this object. Mr. Finlayson 
spoke of greenhouses and their man- 
agement in general, pointing out 
whereby the best results may be ob- 
tained, and in reply to questions asked 
at the close of his talk he gave some 
good instruction relative to ventila- 
tion, size of pipes for heating, tempera- 
ture for miscellaneous plants, for 
roses and carnations, method of rid- 
ding houses of mildew, use of lime, 
fertilizers, etc.

Town eae 
The annual report of the receipts 
and expenditures of the town of Man- 
chester for the year ending Feb. 1, is 
published and was distributed about 
town Wednesday. 
It is a well gotten up volume and 
reflects great credit on Town Auditor 
Bell as well as upon the printers. 
Several new departures have been 
made this year, new reports are in- 
cluded and a list of the qualitied 
voters is also included. As last year, 
the School and Water Department 
reports are published with the other 
reports, but these have been printed 
separate also for the convenience of 
the respective departments. 
The report was printed by the 
Nortu SHORE BREEZE print, at the 
finely equipped office of the Beverly 
Printing company (successors to W. 
les Maloon & Co.), where all the 
BREEZE work is done, and is a fair 
example of the excellent work 
executed at that office. 
Bon Voyage, 
William Hoare and George S. Sin- 
nicks of Manchester, two of the best 
known business men on the North 
Shore, departed from Boston Tuesday 
on the Ivernia for England, and, did 
not the pleasure of the trip repay 
them for the journey, the royal 
“‘send-off’”’ given them by a score or 
more friends and business associates 
would suffice to make the event long 
remembered by them. 
When they left Manchester on the 
noon train Tuesday they were accom- 
panied by a party of friends who 
went to see that they were safely 
started on their journey. Among the 
number were Oliver T. Roberts, Ray- 
mond C. Allen, Supt. George Kimball, 
William W. Hoare, A. E. Hersey, M. 
J. Callahan, A. A. Cushing, Fred J. 
Merrill and James Hoare. 
The party dined at a Boston hotel 
before starting for the pier at East 
Boston, where a still larger number 
had assembled to wish them bon voy- 
age, including members of the Master 
Builders association, Jasper Pope, the 
Beverly lumber dealer; Stephen and 
Gregory Connolly of Beverly Farms, 
LeeAnn Pane Dah Beaton jaw. 
Carter and Chief Peabody. And to 
add to the pleasure of this all who 
went to the boat remembered the 
travellers with flowers, cigars, ‘‘ bait 
for fishing,”’ etc. 
The occasion proved a very pleasant 
one indeed, and was but a small meas- 
ure of the good feeling for the two 
very popularmen. Mrs Sinnicks and 
Mrs. Fred Johnson were also at the 
boat. Mr. Hoare and Mr. Sinnicks 
had state rooms opposite each other. 
Many of the visitors were shown over 
the steamer before the time for de- 
parture had arrived.
