 president, in his opening remarks said 

 it gave him great pleasure to see so 

 many members and friends of the so- 

 ciety present :iiul thotight it augured 

 well for the future success of the so- 

 ciety. He then gave an interesting 

 •sketch of the history of the society, it 

 first being organized in 18;)0, one year 

 after the Massachu.setts Society, thus be- 

 ing the second oldest in the United 

 States, It appears to have lain dor- 

 mant for some years and then to have 

 sprung into existence again, and so 

 forth. He next gave a brief summary 

 of the progress in horticulture during 

 the past fifty years. Every attention 

 was given the president's remarks and 

 they were well received by the members 

 present. 



The next call was for Mr. Stewart. 

 Boston, who after a few preliminary re- 

 marks mixed with wit and humor, high- 

 ly amusing the boys, said: "T wish you 

 great success in your new undertaking. 

 It is easy to organize a society but it 

 is hard to stay there." He urged all to 

 pull one waj' and that the way to suc- 

 cess. 



Mr, Hulse, Hartford, spoke briefly, ad- 

 vising that attention be paid to hardy 

 perennials and ornamental shrubs, Mr, 

 Hulse was one of the judges at our fall 

 show and is very popular among the 

 craft.

 strongly advocated exhibits of rare and 

 meritorious plants and flowers at the 

 regular meetings of the society, making 

 an earnest appeal to all present to be 

 united and work as one for the one in-
