 A communication from M. ('. Ebel, sec- 

 retary of the National Association of 

 Gardeners, was read, asking the coo))era- 

 lion of the club with other similar clubs 

 for the advancement of horticulture. F.

 strongest horticultural body, should be 

 the one to cooperate with. Other mem- 

 bers, however, dissented from these 

 views. After « onsiderable discussion a 

 Wsolution, sympathetic with the cooj)- 

 <»rative plan, but awaiting more details 

 before definite action was taken, was 

 adopted. Tickets for the annual ban- 

 quet, Februarv 24, sold at a lively rate
