Butley  Tulip  Society. 
June  8th. 
This  old  established  society  held  its  seventy-fifth  annual  show  at 
the  Orange  Tree  Inn,  Butley,  near  Macclesfield,  on  Friday,  June  8th. 
The  flowers  were  good  in  quality,  and  what  was  better  still  there  were 
more  exhibitors  than  usual.  The  date  chosen  for  the  show  was  rather 
too  late  for  several  of  the  growers,  but  it  just  suited  Mr.  Bentley,  who 
took  most  of  the  prizes.  As  it  is  without  doubt  discouraging  to  smaller 
growers  when  one  or  two  big  men  come  and  take  all  the  prizes,  it  was 
unanimously  decided  that  next  year  no  exhibitor  shall  be  allowed  to 
take  more  than  two  prizes  in  each  class.  We  hope  that  this  new  rule 
will  have  the  effect  of  bringing  more  exhibitors,  as  there  will  be  more 
chances  of  success  for  everybody.  The  judges,  Messrs.  Housley 
(Stockport),  Whittaker  (Royton),  and  Chadwick  (Bitley),  made  the 
following  awards  : — 
Silver  cup  for  the  best  stand  of  six  rectified  Tulips,  one  in  each  class. 
— Mr.  J.  W.  Bentley,  Stakehill,  Manchester,  with  Sir  Joseph  Paxton, 
flamed,  and  William  Annibal,  feathered  bizarres;  Prince  of  Morocco, 
flamed,  and  Foster’s  Seedling,  feathered  bybloemens ;  Mabel,  flamed, 
and  Mrs.  Atkin,  feathered  roses.
