BALTIMORE. 



Horticultural Exhibit. 



The executive board of the Maryland 

 State Horticultural Society met July 28 

 at the mansion at Carroll park, the resi- 

 dence of Charles L. Seybold, the presi- 

 dent of the society, and decided to have 

 the summer meeting September 22, at 

 the nurseries of Eichard Vincent, at 

 White Marsh. The midwinter exhibition 

 and meeting, the principal one of the 

 year, will be held at the Fifth Eegiment 

 Armory December 1 to 3. It was decided 

 to allow persons from other states to 

 compete with Maryland growers in the 

 exhibition, but realizing that it would 

 not do to use any of the state appropria- 

 tion for prizes to foreign exhibitors, it 

 was decided to award diplomas instead. 

 Maryland exhibitors who are fortunate 

 enough to carry off honors will have op- 

 tion of receiving money, medals or di- 

 plomas. 



R. Vincent, who, with Mrs. Vincent, at- 

 tended the meeting by special invitation, 

 invited the society to hold its summer 

 meeting at his plac6, and the invitation 

 was accepted. Mr. Vincent promised to 

 have on display at the time the finest dis- 

 play of geraniums and dahlias ever seen 

 in Maryland and informed the members 

 that he would afford the society every 

 facility for a successful meeting. It was 

 decided to invite the Maryland Corn 

 Breeders' Association, Maryland State 

 Grange and the Maryland Beekeepers' 

 Association to hold their meetings and 

 exhibitions at the same time in the win- 

 ter that the Horticultural Society meets. 

 This was done last year. 



Those present at the meetings were 

 President C. L. Seybold, Prof. Symmons ; 

 J. J. Perry, president of the Gardeners' 

 and Florists' Club; George Morrison, 

 vice-president of that organization, and 

 C. P. Close, of College Park; W. Irving 

 Walker, Chestertown; E. P. Cohill, of 

 Hancock; J. W. Kerr, of Denton. Q.

 Des Moines, August 26. Mr. Ewoldt has 

 accepted the invitation and will deliver
