SUMMER MEETING, 1901. 273 



is in the process of erection. It is i6o feet wide and 240 feet long, 

 and covers a space four times as large as the old horticultural quar- 

 ters. Mr. Underwood urged the importance of every horticulturist 

 rallying to the support of the exhibit that will be made there next 

 fall, that it may be the most attractive display of its kind ever made 

 in the northwest. As much of value may be learned in the six days of 

 the fair as in a year, perhaps, in days gone by. Premiums are lib- 

 eral, bring your apples, or anything mentioned in the premium list, 

 and win all you can. 



Mr. Elliot suggested that any especially nice specimens of 

 strawberries, or other fruit too early for the fair, be prepared in cans 

 and b; ought in for exhibition. 



The exercises closed by the reading of an interesting paper — 

 a prose poem it might be called, by J. T. Grimes, on "The Army of 

 Flowers," which is given in full elsewhere in our monthly. (See in- 

 dex.) 



The hour for dismissal having arrived, President Pendergast 

 declared the meeting closed.
