AUTUMN BLOOMS.

SHOW AT NEW PLYMOUTH. With a well-fllled entr£ list the New Plymouth Horticultural Society’s Autumn Show, to be held in the Coronation Hall to-morrow, should provide an attractive display. and entries of blooms have been made by a number of well-known growers, and there is sure to be some choice flowers at the show. One gentleman who is a noted grower of begonias has been allotted a space of 30 feet for exhibition purposes and this should make an attractive showing. The society is practically in the act of re-establishing its annual fixtures, which were discontinued during the war. Good support has been accorded this year’s events, and public support in shape of good patronage of the autumn show will further help the society along. Vegetables, including potatoes, will be a strong feature of the show, and the floral and cookery classes have also proved popular. Other classes include cookery (home-made bread, cakes, etc.), preserves, and honey and fruit sections. Competitors are reminded to bring their exhibits before ten o’clock to-morrow morning The show will be open from 1 p.m. to 5.30 p.m.. ajjjd in the evening from 7 o’clock till 9.30.
