 ficers were reelected and are as follows:

The Meeting. 



The meeting of the association was 

 unusually well attended. The principal 

 matter of business before the associa- 

 tion was the entertainment of the 

 American Association of Nurserymen, 

 which meets in Cleveland, June 24 to 

 26. At the meeting $1,000 was raised 

 for this purpose. City Forester John 

 Boddy, of Cleveland, will cooperate 

 with the Ohio association in entertain- 

 ing the national organization. The 

 present plan is to furnish the members 

 of the association next June an auto- 

 mobile ride through the parks and boule- 

 vards and a moonlight boat ride on the 

 lake. 



Mr. Boddy gave an interesting talk, 

 illustrated with stereopticon views, on 

 the parks and boulevards of Cleveland. 

 He showed views of the $2,000,000 art 

 museum in the course of construction 

 and of the new conservatories and ar- 

 boretum. He also showed a number of 

 slides in explanation of certain fruit 

 blights and pests. Several papers were 

 presented that were on topics of impor- 

 tance and of great interest to the mem- 

 bers.

 in the absence of President Charles Pen- 

 nington, who since his election has 

 moved to Alabama. It was proposed
