AMERICAN PEONY SOCIETY. 



The seventeenth annual exhibition of 

 the Americau Peony Society, which 

 takes place in the Board of Commerce, 

 Detroit, Mich., June 17 and 18, already 

 gives indications of being the best in 

 the history of the society. The date 

 fixed for the event this year is over a 

 week later than that of the exhibition 

 at Cleveland a year ago. 



Many growers who wished to make 

 exhibits in the different classes then 

 were unable to do so owing to the date,

 favorable to the growers in the north 

 central states and many of them will 

 take advantage of these exceptional 

 conditions and make extensive exhibits. 



No charge will be made this year for 

 admission to the exhibition and the 

 greatest efforts will be made to have a 

 big attendance of the flower-loving pub- 

 lic to further popularize the peony, so 

 that people with even a small plot of 

 ground Will hereafter grow some peo- 

 nies. 



The Detroit Florists' Club is cooper- 



ating in this event with the American 

 Peony Society and will have charge of 

 the exhibition. Peony growers every- 

 where are urged to do their utmost to 

 make exhibits. Those who are unable to 

 bring their flowers may safely address 

 them, charges prepaid, to the Michigan 

 Cut Flower Exchange, 264 Randolph 

 Street, Detroit, Mich., marked ' ' For the 

 Peony Exhibition." These will be 

 given special care and properly staged 

 in the exhibition hall. All entries for 

 competition and correspondence in con- 

 nection with the same may be ad-
