ST. LOUIS ASSOCIATION OF 

 GARDENERS 



CAMPBELL Wednesday nite mach 19 .. 



The first outdoor meeting of the season 

 was held at the Estate of S. Plant, at Clay- 

 ton, Mo., June 4th. After a short business 

 session the members were conducted over 

 the ,!»rounds by Mr. Plant and Wm. Schoen- 

 hofcr, his gardener. It was explained that 

 ten years ago this estate was practically 

 treeless and the soil of such a tenacious clay 

 nature that it seemed a rather hopeless 

 proposition for its development into a coun- 

 try estate. 



It is now, however, one of the finest es- 

 tates in the vicinity of St. Louis. The 

 luxurient growth of the trees are largely 

 due to the use of dynamite previous to plant- 

 ing and sub.sequent cultivating, mulcliing 

 and care. This place is an object lesson to 

 those who believe that it takes a lifetime 

 to gro^v trees of sufficient size for shade 

 and comfort. 



After the inspection of the premises a 

 luncheon was served. 



The July meeting was held at the estab- 

 lishment of C. E. DeWever, Olivette, Mo. 

 Mr, DeWcvcr is a commercial grower, 

 specializing in French hydranges and gladi- 

 olus. .'\ special demonstration of his prac- 

 tice of cultivating with a small tractor and 

 method of irrigation was given for tlie lu-nc- 

 fit of the gardeners, which proved both in- 

 teresting and instructive. Before departing 

 a lunch was served. L. P. Jenskn,
