Worcester Horticultural Society Presents The Worcester Spring Flower Show PDF Download

Excerpt from Transactions of the Worcester County Horticultural Society: Reports of the Officers and Lectures for the Year Ending December 8, 1939 The idea of labelling specimens on exhibition, featured by the Department of Agriculture in connection with its work in Washing ton, is gaining local attention, especially in the weekly shows of this Society. Notable exhibits appearing in our shows during the year have attracted wide attention. The Exhibition program began with the Spring Show in March, which was followed by the weekly exhibits held each Thursday during the flowering season, and con cluded in November with the Chrysanthemum Show. The Lecture Course, begun in January and conducted through the remainder of the winter months, proved to be an additional source of information, and thus the Society has produced an abundance of instruction in the art of cultivation of plant life. These programs likewise have abounded in ideas on the attractive arrangement of plants and shrubs used for the beautification of grounds about houses, as well as for new and better use of flowers for home and table decoration.
