' GREENWICH, CONN. 



There was a large attendance at the 

 monthly meeting of the Westchester 

 ^ and Fairfield Horticultural Society at 

 the rooms in Doran's hall June 12. 

 President Robert Williamson occupied 

 the chair. Two new members were 

 elected and several applications for 

 membership were received. The sum- 

 mer and fall show committees reported 

 progress and offers of substantial addi- 

 tions to the premium lists of both ex- 

 hibitions were read and accepted. M. C. 

 Ebel, secretary of the National Asso- 

 ciation of Gardeners, was present and 

 delivered a lengthy address on the co- 

 operative movement between the local 

 societies and the national association. 

 After a discussion it was unanimously 

 decided that our society should join in 

 this movement and the president ac- 

 cordingly appointed a committee of 

 three members to act in conjunction 

 with the national cooperative commit- 

 tee. 



A pleasant feature of the meeting 

 was the competition for the '.Michell 

 silver and bronze medals, open to as- 

 sistant gardeners only, for the best ar- 

 ranged table centerpiece composed of 

 outdoor flowers and foliage. Several 

 beautiful creations were ou exhibition. 

 David B. Ridpath, of Mamaroneck, 

 N. Y., was awarded the silver medal 

 and Andrew P. Clarkson, of Port Ches- 

 ter, N. Y., carried off the bronze medal. 

 Neil Maclnnes, of Mamaroneck, and 

 Adam Smith, of Rye, N, Y., were given 

 votes of thanks. The taste displayed 

 in their work was a credit to the ex- 

 hibitors. 



The judges made the following 

 awards to the non-competitive exhibits 

 of the other members: Alex. Marshall, 

 cultural certificate for a magnificent 

 plant of Miltonia vexillaria and a cut 

 spray of Cattleya Mendellii; Thos. 

 Aitchison, highly commended for a 

 specimen plant of Oncidium Went- 

 worthianum; P. W. Popp, vote of 

 thanks for a vase of climbing American 

 Beauty, a hardy climber of recent in- 

 troduction that will be popular when 

 better known. 



The summer show will be held on the 

 hospital grounds at Port Chester June 

 19 and 20. P. W. P.
