272 State Horticultural Society. 



Eden, and if I ever come to realize any part of my ideals, a nice little 

 orchard, with a diversity of fruits, will form an important part of the 

 whole. 



Again thanking you for your kindness, with assurances of my 

 highest consideration and with a world of good wishes, I remain. 



Fraternally yours, 



J. C. McAuLIFFE.

 Dear Sir — Please accept my thanks for courtesy extended in send- 

 ing me the 47th annual report of the Horticultural Society of Missouri

I am yours truly,

 Dear Sir — I have just received the reports (4) of your Horticultural 

 Society for the past four years, and I thank you for this kindness. From 

 a glance over the last report I find several articles which will help us 

 very much. Kindly put our school on your list for whatever bulletins 

 or other matter you issue, and oblige,

Midway, Kansas, September 28, 1905. 

 Dear Sir — Allow me to inquire if the report of the Horticultural 

 Society for 1904 has been issued yet. I have not received a copy yet and 

 I did not know if the books had been sent out or not. Also, is there any 

 specified time that dues must be paid? Kindly advise me and oblige. 

 Was glad to note that you had been elected President of the National 

 Society. 



Yours truly, 



Geo. H. Williams.
