OF THE 



I90I, 



OF THE 



MINNESOTA STATE HORTICULTURAL SOCIETY. 



The regular summer gatheriug of the society will be held as usual this 

 year at the State Experiment Station, at St. Anthony Park, on Thursday, the 

 20th day of June. This date is set as nearly as possible to accommodate the 

 strawberry growers in the part of the state most accessible to thewplace of 

 meeting, and with this object in view a liberal premium list has been prepared. 



The order of exercises for the day will not differ materially from that of 

 similar occasions in previous years. The forenoon will give ample oppor- 

 tunity to those so inclined to look over the experiment gardens and orchards 

 and observe the changes and progress in this interesting and valuable work. 

 Several of the professors and their assistants will be in attendance to explain 

 the character of this work. 



At 12:30 o'clock basket lunch will be spread in Armory Hall, and all at- 

 tending are invited to contribute towards this festive occasion. Every one 

 is welcome. If not a member, $1.00 will make you such, if yod wish, and 

 give you the publications of the society and a voice in its deliberations. 



At 2 o'clock p. m. the regular summer session of the society will be held. 

 A somewhat informal program will occupy the following two hours. A num- 

 ber of the professors connected with the Experiment Station have consented 

 to make brief addresses to the meeting, and an opportunity will be offered 

 to all who may desire to ask questions in regard to the work of the Station 

 or the Farm School. 



Remember that the social feature is especially emphasized, and don't 

 forget to bring along your wife or husband, as the case may be. 



Meeting of the Women's Auxiliary. The regular summer meeting of 

 this auxiliary society will be held at some convenient time during the 

 day, to be announced.
