364 STATE HORTICULTURAL SOCIETY. 



Resolved, That we extend our innermost sympathy and condolence to Mrs. Nichols 

 and her two daughters, believing truly that the blessings so richly dispensed in all the 

 offices of doing good, by the dear husband and father, will f)ermanently remain with 

 them. 



MARKETING FRUITS. 



The society had the subject of marketing under considei-ation at various 

 meetings, and considerable time has been devoted to the discussion. The 

 president and others have done well in using the telegraph and telephone 

 frequently to ascertain where the best markets were. Sometimes this 

 or another place is glutted, and by taking advantage through jjosting one's 

 self, much better prices are obtained. Usually the larger cities are over 

 stocked, while in the smaller places, often, prices are fair at the same time. 

 Where the marketing of berries and peaches is going on every day, when 

 shipping such fruits is begun, the mail is too slow and the telegraph and 

 telephone should be used unsparingly.
