TARRYTOWN HORTICULTURAL 

 SOCIETY. 



The regular monthly meeting of the 

 Tarrytown (N. Y.) Horticultuial So- 

 ciety was held in its rooms on Friday 

 evening, May 27th, 1910, a good num- 

 ber of members being present. The 

 monthly prize, donated by Wm. Scott, 

 for twelve vases of hardy outdoor flow- 

 ers was won by Robert Angus, gar- 

 dener for Joseph Eastman. The ex- 

 hibit consisted of six lots in all and 

 made a nice display. 



The finishing touches were put on 

 the schedules for the June and Fall 

 Flower Shows. It was decided to hold 

 the June show on June 14th, 1910. 

 These schedules are now ready, and 

 may be had upon application to the 

 Secretary, E. W. Neubrand. 



The matter of the annual outing was 

 taken up and discussed, and the old 

 committee, John Brunker, James Smith, 

 and William Scott, were again ap- 

 pointed with power to make all neces- 

 sary arrangements. 



Samuel C. Horn, Superintendent for 

 James Speyer of Scarboro, was elected 

 to membership.

AMERICAN ROSE SOCIETY. 



The A. N. Pierson Co., Inc., of Crom- 

 well, Conn., have filed with the Amer- 

 ican Rose Society notice of registration 

 of a new sport of Killarney originat- 

 ing with them in 190S. It is identical 

 with the Killarney, excepting in color, 

 which is much brighter, showing a 

 strong tendency to red, some blooms 

 having been as dark in color as the 

 Richmond and the avei'age of the crop 

 for the entire year of 1909 was only a 

 shade lighter. 



The question has been addressed to 

 the Secretary, whether the American 

 Rose Society will have a June Show, 

 but up to this writing there has been 

 no step taken toward such an exhibi- 

 tion. 



The Minnesota State Rose Society 

 have applied for a bronze medal to 

 be offered at their summer exhibition 

 to the best exhibit by an amateur. 

 The definition which the society gives 

 of an amateur is, "One who grows the 

 plants himself or herself, but does not 

 regularly employ a gardener to grow 

 them, and one who does not grow or 

 sell plants as a business." Last year 

 the American Rose Society offered its 

 bronze medal and this was awarded to 

 Mrs. F. H. Gibbs, St. Paul, Minn.

HERE TO STAY 



You kn^w the Comet is a Tale of the 

 past. 



Not so with Apbine, which has come to 

 stay to the last. 



APHINE 



Has proved its effeciency for destroying 

 the insect pests that infest the garden, 

 field and orchard, to be equal to its 

 effectiveness in the greenhouse, where it 

 has already gained wide recognition as 

 the leading insecticide on the market for 

 general use. 



It may not be the cheapest, but it is the 



best. 



Aphine destroys green, black and white 

 fly, red spider, thiip, scale, slugs, ants, 

 and many other species of plant insects. 



It will not injure the tenderest foliage, in 

 fact it invigorates plant life. 



These statements may appear as bold 

 assertions, but we can furnish you with 

 many expert endorsements to substantiate 

 all We claim for Aphine, if you are in 

 terested.
