STATE HORTICULTURAL SOCIETY. 221 



TIDINGS FROM CALIFOBNIA. 



An interesting letter was read from Wyman Elliott written at 

 Santa Monica, California, in which he described the horticulture 

 of California as he found it. 



THE FORESTRY ASSOCIATION. 



The Secretary stated that from present appearances there was 

 not likely to be much of an attendance from the Forestry 

 Association at the proposed joint meeting to-morrow, and recom- 

 mended that we proceed with our regular program, and take 

 up Forestry when we reach it in the course of business. Thi& 

 was agreed to. 



THE GOVERNOR'S VISIT. 



The Secretary also stated that it had been the desire and expec- 

 tation of Governor Hubbard to be present at one session of our 

 Society this week, and at the joint meeting on forestry, but the 

 fire at Stillwater had thrown a mass of business suddenly upon 

 the Governor, and he was much pressed for time ; was even now 

 necessarily away on a trip to Chicago, and it was not likely he 

 would return soon enough to make us his contemplated visit.
