YONKERS HORTICULTURAL 

 SOCIETY. 



A meeting of this society was held 

 Friday evening, Sept. 2nd. The prizes 

 offered by Messrs. H. Nichols and L. 

 Taylor for collections of vegetables 

 brought out a very fine competition 

 which showed that the dry season did 

 not spoil the vegetable crop in Yonk- 

 ers. The judges, Messrs. John Barry, 

 J. Mooney and L. Taylor, made the 

 following awards: 1st, H. Scott; 2nd, 

 J. Goff. 



Louis Milliot read a very interesting 

 essay on "The Most Popular Christmas 

 Flower, the Poinsettia." 



The executive committee reported 

 that the Armory of Co. G., N. G., N. Y., 

 on Waverly street, had been hired for 

 the fall show to be held on Thursday 

 and Friday, Nov. ICth and 11th. En- 

 try blanks for same can be procured 

 from H. Scott, secretary, 615 No. 

 Broadway, Yonkers, N. Y.

STATE FLORISTS' ASSOCIATION 

 OF INDIANA. 



We are pleased to learn that the 

 State Florists' Association has again 

 assumed control of the Indianapolis 

 flower shows, which during the past 

 ten years have been conducted under 

 the management of a separate organ- 

 ization with indifferent satisfaction. 



Indianapolis is well located to in- 

 sure a first-class exhibition and the 

 exhibits in the past have been very 

 fine. It is hoped that the show which 

 is being planned for this fall will 

 eclipse any and all of its predecessors. 

 The premiums, all cash, amount to 

 some $2,000. The list of classes has 



been kept down to a reasonable num- 

 ber and it is therefore practicable to 

 hang up purses which are quite liberal. 

 For instance, $250 is offered in one 

 class for American Beauty roses.
