The following is the circular issued by the Society, aunouncing 

 the summer, meeting, together with premium list: 



The summer meeting of the Society will be held on the grounds 

 of the state experimental farm, situated nearly midway between 

 St. Paul and Minneapolis, one mile north of St. Anthony Park 

 and near the state fair grounds, Thursday, June 28th, to be fol- 

 lowed (the weather being pleasant) by a horticultural excur- 

 sion to Lake Minnetonka on the following day. 



The meeting at the experimental farm will be on the basket 

 picnic plan, to which all are expected to contribute. 



The program will be somewhat informal, although of an in- 

 teresting nature. The object lessons of the day will be well 

 worth the time and expense incurred to everyone having an in- 

 terest in the beautifying of the home and its surroundings.
