Second National Flower Show to be 
Held in Boston. 
Boston has been elected as the eity 
to have the second national flower 
show ever held in America, March 
25-April 1, 1911. 
The first, held some years ago in 
Chicago, was on a much smaller 
seale than the one now contemplat- 
ed. The Boston show will be held 
under the auspicies of and in connec- 
tion with the convention of the 
Society of American Florists 
and Ornamental Horticulturists, and 
assisted by the American Rose, the 
American Carnation and American 
Gladiolus Societies and the coopera-

tion of the Massachusetts Horticul- 
tual Society. 
This, it is said today, will give a 
very adequate testimonial to the 
character of the coming exposition. 
Chester I. Campbell is the manager. 
The entire Mechanics building has 
been engaged, and the display will 
continue a week. 
Over $10,000 will be offered as 
premiums, and all the prominent 
florists and growers of the country 
will compete, as well as the private 
gardeners of many large New Eng- 
land estates. In the trade exhibits 
greenhouse construction, pottery, 
fertilizer and garden supply firms 
have taken space. 
A number of leading concerns in 
Boston are going to great expense in 
their exhibits, three in particular in- 
volving an outlay of nearly $5,000 
each. These will present a typical 
Holland or Duteh garden, an old 
English garden, and an Italian gar- 
den. From far-off Japan is to be 
imported the material for a Japan- 
ese garden, and in many countries 
gardeners and growers are forcing 
their yield, which in many instances 
will show varieties away out of the 
regular season for this occasion. 
Among the exhibitors from this 
section will be the North Shore

Ipswich Aviator Came to Grief. 
Aviator Hubbard, who has spent 
the greater part of the winter in 
building a new airship at his plant 
on the Essex road, Ipswich, near the 
C. G. Brown farm, made his initial 
trip last Friday. Like the tradition- 
al “‘wise men of Gotham’’ who went 
to sea in a bowl, ‘‘had the airship 
been stronger, my tale had been 
longer’’. 
Mr. Hubbard made an excellent 
run and went up about 150 feet 
when, like the ‘‘one-hoss shay’’, ‘‘all 
at once and nothing first’’, the great 
man-made bird suddenly stopped, 
turned slowly over and fell to the 
ground. Fortunately it eame down 
on one end and not flat down, in 
which case Mr. Hubbard must have 
been crushed beneath its weight. As 
it was he managed to escape with 
numerous scratches and bruises, but 
it is thought he is not seriously in- 
jured. The airship, however, was 
wrecked and will require weeks of 
repairing—and then, probably, the 
performance will be repeated.
