Resolutions. 



Adjournment. 



Entertainment. 



The pleasure features of the conven- 

 tion are also to be attractive. W. B. 

 Cole is the chairman of the committee 

 having this in charge and will undoubt- 

 edly give the full particulars of this 

 part of the program at the opening ses- 

 sion. Various items have been given 

 from time to time in these columns and 

 the efforts of Mr. Cole and the Ohio 

 Nurserymen's Association should bring 

 out something more than ordinary in 

 the line of recreation. 



The arrangements include an automo- 

 bile' ride Thursday afternoon, June 25, 

 through the parks and boulevards of the 

 city, after which light refreshments will 

 be served at Shaker lake. The city for- 

 ester and his department are doing their 

 part to make this a success. Thursday 

 evening, from 8:30 to 10:30, there will 

 be a boat ride on Lake Erie on the 

 steamer State of Ohio. Afternoon en- 

 tertainments are being prepared for the 

 ladies.

In regard to exhibits, Chairman T. B. 

 West writes: "The committee on ex-

iters. As the space for exhibits will be 

 free to the exhibitor, he is expected to 

 install his exhibit and take charge of 

 it. We have four large rooms assigned 

 us by the hotel management, which the 

 committee thinks will be ample space; 

 if not, more space will be available. 

 Implements and machinery will have to 

 be crated or taken apart so they will 

 pass through an ordinary door, there be- 

 ing no large doors. Application for this 

 space should be made by exhibitor to 

 any member of the committee, namely:

 han, Dresher, Pa.; W. N. Scarflf, New

Badges. 



Badges will be distributed at the 

 meeting and members are reminded not 

 to leave their badge books at home.

 will not grow over two and one-half 

 feet high, and which will be hardy and 

 have many flowers. H. E. M. 



SHRUBS FOE NORTH EXPOSURE. 



Please tell me what to plant on the 

 north side of my home. I want to 

 plant close to the basement, in order 



You cannot get any shrub as low as 

 you mention which will give you many 

 flowers. Dwarf rhododendrons, like 

 Boule de Neige, would be all right for 

 some years; so would Andromeda flori- 

 bunda and speciosa. These latter flower 

 in spring and are evergreen. Euony- 

 mus radicans vegetus would make a 

 splendid evergreen for such a situa- 

 tion. Its flowers, however, are not con- 

 spicuous, but its berries are attractive. 

 I do not know of any better plant for 

 you to use than this. If you manure 

 the plants well they will grow rapidly. 

 In deciduous shrubs, Berberis Thun- 

 bergii would, in time, become a little 

 taller than you desire, but could easily 

 be kept down to the desired height.
