 Society had a very lively meeting on 

 February 17. The ball committee re-

 on "Rose Culture under Glass." The 

 assistant gardeners only can compete for 

 these prizes. The papers must be sent 

 in before March 3, to the secretary, H. 

 A. Kettel, Fair Haven, N. J. Several 

 other subjects will be taken up at sub- 

 sequent meetings, and prizes given for 

 same. The judges on these papers are: 

 H. A. Kettel, N. Butterbach, Wm. Tur- 

 ner, Geo. H. Hale and W. "W. Kennedy.

 president are: Investigating committee,
