GLEN COVE, N. Y. 



The Nassau County Horticultural So- 

 ciety held its monthly meeting in Pem- 

 broke hall July 8. President Jaenicke oc- 

 cupied the chair. Acceptances were read 

 from several gentlemen who were in- 

 vited to act as judges at the hall exhibi- 

 tion. Two new members were proposed 

 and three elected. Three honorary mem- 

 bers were elected. Mr. Mackenzie, chair- 

 man of the executive committee, pre- 

 sented a schedule for the fall show, which 

 was approved. Contributions of special 

 prizes were offered by Stumpp & "Walter 

 Co., Peter Henderson & Co., and W. E. 

 Marshall Co., New York; also W. H. 

 Weeks, Sea Cliff. Several of the mem- 

 bers also offered prizes. It was voted 

 that no member could compete for his 

 own prize, and the executive committee 

 was asked to have a preliminary schedule 

 prepared by next meeting. It was also 

 voted to have a dahlia show in October. 

 A proposal that essays be read and dis- 

 cussed was received favorably, and J. F. 

 Johnston consented to have one on ever- 

 greens for next meeting. President 

 Jaenicke announced that members are 

 invited to exhibit at the Queens-Nassau 

 Agricultural Exhibition. The awards of 

 the exhibits for points were: H. F. Mey- 

 er, corn, 81 ; Valentine Cleres, poppies, 

 71; Oscar Adder, rhubarb, certificate of 

 culture; yuccas, honorable mention. An 

 exhibit of evergreens by Mr. Johnston 

 received a vote of thanks. Mr. Johnston 

 gave an interesting talk on evergreens 

 and Mr. Adder told how he grew his 

 rhubarb. J. R.
