Sei'tembee It). 1912. 



OBEENWIOH, CONN. 



The regular monthly meeting of the 

 Westchester and Fairfield Horticultural 

 Society was held here on Friday, Sep- 

 tember 13, with a large attendance and 

 with President Stuart in the chair. The 

 table was filled with choice exhibits, 

 especially of dahlias and gladioli. 



Four applications for membership 

 were received and seven new members 

 were elected. 



A prize of $10 wias offered for the 

 fall show by the Wilson Plant Oil & Fer- 

 tilizer Co., and one of $25 by C. Mal- 

 lory, Port Chester. 



J. H. Troy, of New Eochelle, spoke 

 at some length of the conditions exist- 

 ing in the most thickly populated sec- 

 tions of our large cities, especially New 

 York, and made some good suggestions 

 as to what could be done to help the 

 young generation by creating in their 

 hearts a love for plant life by establish- 

 ing gardens where the children could 

 spend their time in cultivating vege- 

 tables and flowers. Oscar Fraenkel, of 

 Yonkers, spoke along the same line, 

 closing his remarks with a few explana- 

 tions of the great results obtained by 

 the proper use of humus in ctiltivating 

 our lands. Both gentlemen were accorded 

 a vote of thanks. 



The awards for exhibits were as fol- 

 lows: Thomas Ryan, for collection of 

 grapes, highly commended; A. White- 

 law, two vases of dahlias, vote of 

 thanks; Alex. Geddes, French asparagus 

 beans, vote of thanks; Harry Wilde, col- 

 lection of dahlias, highly commended, 

 also vote of thanks for clerodendron and 

 high commendation for collection of 

 peaches; Jas. Foster, plate of peaches, 

 highly commended; J. Henderson, vase 

 of seedling dahlias, vote of thanks.
